The Yuan Family of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 593 The Battle of Guandu ([-])

Cao Zhi, Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren and others naturally focused their attention on places that were relatively anxious, while Cao Hong's side was still commanded by Yuan Jun's general Guan Kun.

Guan Kun is in his early forties and has been in the Yuan family for a long time. He is considered an old general in Yuan Jun, and his qualifications should have reached a senior general. However, he still holds the position of a lowly general, which shows that he is not very old. ability.

Even so, Guan Kun still felt ashamed. This time he was in charge of seducing Cao Hong. He thought it was his last chance to show his promotion. Whether he could make a fortune in the future and enter Yuan Jun's general center group depended on it.

Although the soldiers and horses were not as powerful as those on the east, west, and south sides, Guan Kun's soldiers still attacked fiercely, and the battle was extremely fierce.

After all, even if the offensive is not strong, the soldiers of Yuan Jun in Hebei are considered elite divisions after years of training. With their powerful individual combat capabilities, they still pose a great threat to Cao Jun, from the bottom of the Tucheng to the top of the Tucheng. Forcibly pushed over.

But the deeper they went, the stronger the resistance of Cao Jun, and the stronger the counterattack encountered. As the battle between the two sides intensified, the number of soldiers killed and injured below gradually increased.

According to Yuan Shang and Jushou's plan, they could retreat after fighting to such an extent, but Guan Kun still did not give the order to retreat. Destroy Cao Hong, regain the north, and occupy the stronghold north of the territorial city. After returning, he will definitely be rewarded by Yuan Shang.

But he forgot one thing, that is, his own ability is far inferior to Cao Hong.

Guan Kun was also considered to be a battle-hardened veteran. He took the lead and braved the rain of arrows to stand in front of the fierce battle between the two sides. He commanded the soldiers to attack while commanding the soldiers to press.

Standing on top of Tucheng, Cao Hong watched Guan Kun's commanding soldiers getting closer and closer to Tucheng. He rolled his eyes and thought about it, and said, "Come on, bring my horse quickly!"

Seeing that Cao Hong was about to send troops, the deputy general hurried forward to dissuade him, saying: "General Cao, the prime minister has ordered you not to go to battle..."

"Go away!" Cao Hongmeng waved his hand, pushed the lieutenant away, wrapped up in the battle, and walked straight down.

At this moment, Guan Kun was commanding Yuan Jun to climb the city, when suddenly there was a cry of killing, it was Cao Hong who led a troop out of the city and headed straight for Guan Kun.

When Guan Kun saw Cao Hong's armor, he knew that he was a good man, and he was overjoyed, so he also rode his horse towards Cao Hong.

When the two horses met, Guan Kun took the lead in attacking Cao Hong's body.

Cao Hong easily blocked Guan Kun's attack, laughed loudly, raised his knife to fight back, no nonsense, just a heavy slash.

Guan Kun hastily parried with his saber horizontally, only to hear a loud bang, and suddenly felt his arm go numb.I screamed in my heart, this guy has so much strength.

The two of them fought together, and the surrounding soldiers and horses of the two sides who were fighting around automatically and consciously moved out of the way, allowing the two of them to fight one-on-one, while shouting loudly, cheering for their respective leaders.

Although Guan Kun's abilities were mediocre, his force was not weak. Although he was not as good as Cao Hong in the fight, he was still close to his opponent, and it was hard to tell the winner in a short time.

They fought thrillingly, and their respective soldiers were unwilling to be lonely. They first cheered for the released leader, and then cursed at each other. Then, the soldiers of both sides stood together again.

Although Yuan Jun's combat power was strong, he did not have an advantage in terrain after all. The dark crossbows and arrows on the top of the city were all supported by Cao Jun. After fighting for a while, the disadvantage became more and more obvious.

Guan Kun couldn't fight for a long time, and he had nothing to do with Cao Hong. While beating him, he peeked at the soldiers around him. His own soldiers were already unable to hold on, and the casualties were not small. If they continued to fight, they would obviously be in an extremely dangerous situation. Some regrets, I really shouldn't be greedy for merit.

In the face of Cao Hong, he was obviously no opponent, so he had no choice but to sway his sword and walk away, but he couldn't retreat in time, and Cao Hong slashed his back fiercely, causing blood to flow.

Seeing Guan Kun fleeing, Cao Hong sneered and chased after him with his knife in hand.

Behind him, the lieutenant hurriedly galloped to the side, dissuading Cao Hong: "The general should not pursue deeply, the prime minister has an order, Zhuo you stick to the master, do not fight without authorization..."

"Go away!" Cao Hong raised his hand and interrupted the lieutenant general. What is it that Yuan Jun is deceitful, if they win a battle, they win a battle, and if I win a battle, it is deceitful?Today, if you say anything, you have to kill the enemy general. After you take your head back, what else do they have to say?
Thinking of this, Cao Hong raised his saber and chased after him, but Yuan Jun had already escorted Guan Kun to retreat, and only a few cavalry came to stop him, but how could they make Cao Hong's opponent, only a few face-to-face, Cao Hong dealt with it neatly up.

Blood was dripping from Guan Kun's back, and while running, he yelled loudly at Yuan Jun's soldiers: "Withdraw, the whole army must withdraw!"

As soon as the master general ran away, the soldiers below did not have the morale to continue fighting. They followed him and retreated desperately to the outside. Just in response to the sentence that the army was defeated like a mountain, the soldiers pushed each other and ran wildly. The scene was extremely chaotic.

Cao Hong followed closely behind Yuan Jun, and shouted loudly while chasing: "Brothers, follow me, kill Yuan Jun, and avenge the former lord!"

Yuan Jun's defeat was a complete defeat, which was ugly.Even so, the hurried marching army headed by Guan Kun managed to escape from the battlefield.

It stands to reason that Cao Hong should have made friends with him and accepted the battle like this, but he refused to let it go, perhaps to reassure Cao Zhi and others, and led his army to pursue Guan Kun desperately, but he refused to let him go.

Seeing that after chasing for several miles, a forest of official roads appeared in the distance. Guan Kun and others panicked and rushed into it. Cao Hong followed closely behind, but not long after entering the forest, they heard a neighing, but It was the tripping rope that suddenly appeared that tripped the cavalry in front of Cao Hongjun to the ground. After the horse fell, the people on its back were thrown far away, and they fell to the ground without making a sound.

"Hey!" Cao Hong hastily reined in his horse and stopped, frowning.

He has been in the battlefield for many years and has rich experience. When he saw this, he could immediately understand that someone had set up an ambush on the road. He didn't need to guess. The opponent must be Yuan Jun.

In an instant, cold sweat flowed from Cao Hong's back. At this moment, the sound of killing suddenly shook the sky in the woods, and countless soldiers of Yuan Jun poured out from the side of the road. Coming head-on.

"Oops!" Cao Hong yelled in a low voice, and shouted loudly: "All fight! Fight!"

Without him shouting, Cao Jun had already fought Yuan Jun on both sides of the woods.

In this battle, the sky was dark and the sky was dark. At the beginning, Cao Jun was still able to persist, but Yuan Jun's soldiers and horses gathered more and more. After the fight, Cao Jun was basically scattered, either killed or separated. Looking around, it was densely packed with soldiers of Yuan Jun.

Cao Hong fought bloody, and led several elite cronies to turn around and kill a way out. He went straight to Tucheng. At this moment, he realized that he was in the commander's tent last night, and what Cao Zhixiahouba and others said was To be honest, Yuan Jun's weak attack on the north was indeed a trick, but he was so angry that he was confused for a while, didn't take it to heart, and even violated Cao Zhi's military order privately.

But after all, Cao Hong is one of the few strong generals left in the Cao army. Although he was ambushed, he still managed to fight his way out. He didn't dare to stay, and went straight to Tucheng to return. This time, he had to listen to the prime minister and the others. .

It's a pity that once people go wrong.There will be no chance to repent, and Yuan Shang will not give Cao Hong this chance.

On the way back, a Biao army had robbed him of his way back, waiting for Cao Hong to throw himself into the trap.

The two leading generals are Yuan Jun's Gao Lan and Gan Ning.

Seeing Cao Hong leading the defeated army, Gao Lan raised the corners of his mouth, revealing his white teeth, and a cruel sneer appeared on his face.

"General Cao Zilian, Your Excellency is in a hurry, where do you want to go?"

Seeing that his way back was blocked, the defeated Cao Jun couldn't help showing a desperate expression on his face.

When Cao Hong looked at Gao Lan, a burst of sadness arose in his heart. As one of the four court pillars in Hebei back then, how could Cao Hong not recognize him.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Gao Lan!"

Gao Lan laughed and said, "I'm honored, honored, I didn't expect you to recognize me."

"Go! Fight them!" Cao Hong was helpless at the moment, and could only hope to fight another bloody road. His soldiers and horses knew this truth, and then rushed towards Yuan Jun with grinning teeth.

However, Gao Lan and Zhang Yan waited for work with ease, and this Biao army was the elite of the Wuji Camp, Huishuang Camp, and Xiandeng Camp. Forgive Cao Hong and others how they can defeat the enemy at the end of their strength, but it doesn't take a while. Cao Hongjun was beaten until he howled like a wolf, and ran away with his head in his arms.

It took about an hour and a half before the battle on the field came to an end. Looking at the official road, Cao Jun’s corpses were scattered all over the place, while Cao Hong was covered in blood. He stood there, looked at the opponent coldly, and sat down on his horse. Having been shot and killed by the crossbow that entered the camp first, he could only fight on foot.

Looking around, Gao Lan slowly dropped the saber in his hand, and said with a smile, "There is no one else."

Gan Ning shrugged casually, pointed at Cao Hong and said, "Who said that, then there's another fucking one?"

Gao Lan nodded and said, "Well, that's right. It's a big fish." After finishing speaking, he licked his lips and said with a smile, "Leave this to me!"

After finishing speaking, he was about to move forward, but Gan Ning raised his hand and pulled him abruptly, saying, "I'm sorry, this big fish should belong to me!"

"........."

Gao Lan was surprised when he heard this, and said, "Gan, do you dare to take credit from me?"

Gan Ning chuckled, shook his head and said, "It's not about taking credit, I'm afraid you won't be able to beat him."

Gao Lan was taken aback when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "Fart, there is nothing that a defeated general at the end of his strength can't beat!"You are clearly trying to steal my credit! "

Gan Ning chuckled and said, "So what if you snatch it, who stipulated that his head is yours?"

Gao Lan was furious when he heard the words: "Bastard, you have only been with the lord for a few years, and you dare to talk to me like that? It's against you! I am the lord's direct line warrior. When you fought the world for the lord, you were still playing as a water thief in the Yangtze River!"

Gan Ning curled his lips in disdain, and said: "Don't use these great principles to suppress me. I am now the governor of the Hebei Navy, and I am not inferior to you in terms of status~! I have decided on the head today. If you are not convinced, Use your skills to beat Lao Tzu!"

Gao Lan frowned: "What's the matter? You mean you want to win or lose with me?"

Gan Ning chuckled and said, "I'm afraid you won't dare!"

Gao Lan pulled his horse, put on a posture, and said: "Okay! Come on! ~ Come on! It's not Hebei Admiral who is afraid of you. Come on, come on, you and I are dead!"

Gan Ning smiled, swiped the tiger-headed knife, and said, "Okay, it's interesting! I'll see today, what kind of ability did you, the Hebei general, have to have been respected by the lord for so long!"

The two were confronting Maimang with a needle point, and there was a tendency to compete for Cao Hong's head.

At this juncture, a soldier came to the two men dripping with sweat, and said in a low voice: "You two generals, stop arguing, it's pointless."

Gao Lan and Gan Ning turned their heads together, looked at him and asked, "Why?"

The soldier of Yuan Jun swallowed lightly, and said in a low voice: "You two generals, don't rob me, Cao Hong, I killed myself..."

"........."
