Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 634
It was another hard fight, the two fought for about [-] rounds, although Huang Zhong was brave, his horses were exhausted, Huang Zhong yelled and slashed out, abandoning Zhang Liao and charged outside.

Zhang Liao was about to give chase when Wei Xu arrived. "Wen Yuan is here all right?"

When old friends met, Zhang Liao stopped his horse and clasped his fists together: "I don't want to see you and me again today after 20 years. The two armies are fighting, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"You and I are brothers, why did Wen Yuan push him too hard, brother to brother?"

"You and I are our own masters, so why go too far? I wanted to kill Cao Xing to avenge Le Jin, but I didn't want to meet you..."

"Back then you betrayed Marquis Wen and joined Cao Cao. I don't blame you. Now that the mistress is still here, why didn't Wen Yuan come with me to see the mistress?" Wei Xu never expected to persuade Zhang Liao to surrender, but only hoped to buy Huang Zhong some time. .

"Don't bring up the past again. Now that I have taken refuge with the King of Wei, I should be sincere. If you escape this battle, please greet the mistress and miss for me." Zhang Liao's expression changed after he finished speaking. "Look at the knife!"

When the round knife struck, Wei Xu sighed lightly and raised his gun to meet him.After all, he was an old friend who came from Bingzhou and fought together under Lu Bu for many years. For a while, Zhang Liao couldn't bear the heart to kill Wei Xu, so his subordinates showed some kindness.When Zhang Liao first entered Cao Ying, he was suppressed and excluded, and only Le Jin was at peace with him. As Zhang Liao said, if Wei Xu was replaced by Cao Xing, he would not be so polite.

"General Zhang, Huang Zhong is far away. General, please pursue him. Leave this thief to me!" Pang De rushed to Zhang Liao and shouted to Zhang Liao. The matter of fighting Wei Xu with Zhang Liao was beyond the reach of Pang De's arrogant personality.

"If that's the case, leave it to Ling Ming." Zhang Liao couldn't bear to kill Wei Xu himself, so he pulled out his horse and led the army to chase and kill Huang Zhong.

Pound swung his sword to fight Wei Xu. He thought that Wei Xu and Zhang Liao would fight for a few rounds under his own hands, but he didn't expect that seven or eight of them would meet. Wei Xu was cut into two by Pound, and Pound spat. Cut off the head and led the army to chase Zhang Liao.

Wei Xu's subordinates were encircled by Lv Qian, who had lost their general. The Han army was quickly defeated, and about 2000 people were captured. Lu Qian ordered to kill them all, and led the army to Fengyang.

One of Lü Bu's eight Yanmen generals died, leaving only Zhang Liao and Cao Xing.After Ju Yi ascended the camp first and Gao Shun fell into the camp, another elite Qingzhou soldier also died.

Huang Zhong was defeated all the way back to the Lightning Camp, only a thousand riders were left around him, and his horses were overdrawn. Even if he trained for a year or so, he might not be able to recover.Fortunately, there were still several horses in the battalion, so Huang Zhong changed horses and ordered Lightning Battalion to lead the horses first, and he and Wei Xu's 2000 people who stayed here were separated from the rear.

Zhang Liao's pursuers rushed up, Huang Zhong shot down several cavalry generals with several arrows, Cao Jun did not dare to pursue too closely, but still followed behind.

Huang Zhong was defeated and returned to Fengyang. Wei Xu had 3000 men in the camp, and Huang Zhong had another 5000. The soldiers rested, the soldiers were too tired, and they insisted on reaching Fengyang on a single breath.At dusk, Pang De and Lu Qian arrived one after another.

Without the Lightning Battalion, Huang Zhong had no choice but to abandon Fengyang and retreat to Xiapi in the dark, in order to avoid annihilation of Cao Jun, who was several times his own and had high morale.At dawn, Zhang Liao found that Huang Zhong had retreated, stopped chasing him, and occupied the camp.On July [-]th, Zhang Liao recovered Fengyang.

In the battle of Fengyang, the Han army dispatched four thousand Qingqi, three thousand Qingzhou soldiers, and ten thousand infantry.Cao Jun dispatched 5000 people and lost [-] people. It can be described as a tragic victory piled up with lives.Zhang Liao set up a conspiracy, Pang De lured Huang Zhong to kill Cao Xing, Lu Qian withstood Huang Zhong and Qingzhou soldiers' attack, and the three cooperated seamlessly.

Lu Qian returned to Qiao, reported victory to Cao Cao and presented Wei Xu's head. Zhang Liao and Pang De were stationed in Fengyang, but they were no longer able to start a war. First, Cao Jun was too tired and needed to recuperate urgently; Rheumatism is falling from the mud.

When Zhou Cang received Mu Nan's report, his forehead was sweating: "Zhang Wenyuan, the tiger general!" He thought that the heavy rain could stop Cao Jun, but he didn't expect Zhang Liao to attack decisively against the taboo of military strategists!It's still a mistake in my own deployment. I shouldn't have sent the Lightning Battalion and Qingzhou soldiers there. The two elite troops are not conducive to fighting in the rain.

Deng Ai sighed again and again: "It's a pity for him to come up with such a desperate plan, a pity for the Lightning Battalion, and a pity for the Qingzhou soldiers!" Since the Battle of Guandu, the Lightning Battalion was almost completely rebuilt, and it has never suffered such a big loss.

"Gongming is in danger." Zhou Wen hammered the case.

Calm down, calm down, Zhou Cang couldn't help reminding himself, the more this time comes, the more he can't mess up.With the help of four generals Xu Sheng, Hao Zhao, Xu Gai, and Niu Gai, with 4 horses and sufficient food and grass, Xu Huang should have no major problems guarding the isolated city.The biggest question now is Sun Quan, if Fengyang falls, will Sun Quan change his mind...

Lu Xun hesitated and said, "Cao Cao borrowed from Sun Quan, and I can also borrow from Lord Wu."

Zhou Wen shook his head, how could he make an excuse?Give up Shouchun to Sun Quan, and Xu Huang go south to Guangling by water?Sun Quan got all the cheap?
"This is a way out." Zhou Cang said slowly. "Abandoning Shouchun puts Cao Cao and Sun Quan in opposing positions. Can you imagine, I can imagine, Sun Quan will also think, would he offend Cao Cao for this? Shouchun is different from Hefei."

"Sun Quan will never agree!" Deng Ai said firmly: "Not to mention that he will not offend Cao Cao for this. How can I make him feel at ease when I have 4 people crossing the border? This is not because there are only more than [-] defeated soldiers in Hefei. I would like to lead the army to retake it. Fengyang, open up the channel with Shouchun!"

Recapturing Fengyang is also a way, but is Deng Ai Zhang Liao's opponent?Maybe in a few years, but not now.The most suitable candidate in Zhou Cang's mind is Zhang Jaw, but can Zhang Jaw move?
"Master Wu, you can talk to him if you want to excuse me. I'm worried that if I don't give up Shouchun, then Cao Cao will abandon Shouchun and send troops to Xuzhou!"

It is impossible for Xu Huang to abandon Shouchun, seize Fengyang and return to Xuzhou. Once he is blocked by Zhang Liao and cannot advance, he will be in danger of being encircled.With Zhang Liao's ability, it's no problem to block Xu Huang for ten days and half a month.Although the economic, political and military center is no longer in Xuzhou, it is the foundation of Zhou Cang, how can we abandon it?Especially since the Martyr's Shrine is still in Tancheng, there must be no loss.

"Pengfei, you lead the independent battalion to Xiapi immediately. Cao Xing and Liao Hua are under your control. If you have anything to do, discuss with General Huang. You are not allowed to fight without my order, let alone take Fengyang!"

Zhou Cang calculated the strength of Qingzhou, and there were only the three battalions of Lu Xun, Ding Feng, and Ma Tie, and his own personal guard battalion. Cao Xing, Wei Xu, and Deng Ai were transferred out successively. The strength of Qingzhou was seriously insufficient.
