"These guys are really good at running. We have chased them for fifty miles and they still haven't caught up... They are indeed the soldiers of that big-eared thief!"

On the official road in the north of Jiangxia, Cao Hong looked at the scattered banners and armors and weapons, and couldn't help but spat with an unlucky look on his face.

Xu Huang on the side looked at the river not far away with a cautious look on his face....

"Gongming, what are you thinking about? Although we are chasing, we are still fighting. It is not good for you to be distracted like this!"

After hearing Cao Hong's teasing, Xu Huang quickly smiled bitterly, but still looked around and whispered in Cao Hong's ear.

"General, don't you think there's anything wrong..."

"Just say what you want to say, Gongming. Is there anything else that needs to be covered up between you and me?"

"....General Zilian, is the water level in this river...too low?" Xu Huang quickly explained after finishing speaking, "General, I know that it is winter now, so the water level will naturally drop.

Many.

But...general, don’t forget, this is Jiangxia, and Miangou is also the mouth of the Yangtze River!

With an endless supply of water from the Yangtze River, the water level in Jiangxia will not be so low even in winter.

And didn’t the general realize that there weren’t many ordinary people along the way?

The most important thing is..."

"Gongming!" Cao Hong frowned and interrupted what Xu Huang wanted to say, and looked at him with helpless eyes, "Gongming, what's going on with you?...Are you afraid of Liu Xuande?

”

"What does General Cao mean? Xu Huang has been fighting for many years, and you and I have fought side by side many times!

When have I, Xu Gongming, ever been afraid of fighting?"

What he said just now really angered Xu Huang completely. Cao Hong on the side seemed to know that what he had just said was a bit too much, so he said it too harshly and quickly coughed to calm him down.

"Gongming, of course Hong knows your character, but...Gongming, you are making too much of a fuss.

Although Jiangxia has a vast territory, all the cities are actually built on the banks of the Mian River.

Although there are water areas in other places, no cities have been established..."

"But it's not like that, there are almost no people..." Xu Huang suppressed his embarrassment and anger, and immediately began to persuade. He always felt that this matter was full of problems.

"...Do you really think so?" Cao Hong looked at Xu Huang endlessly, and finally couldn't help but compromise, "Since you think so, what should we do?"

"It's better to let Wenda withdraw first, we'll be more careful, and then... move the troops..."

"Gongming, even if I agree to your request, I'm afraid Wenda won't agree to it. Besides, you haven't..."

"Report!" While Cao Hong was still arguing with Xu Huang, the scouts from the front suddenly came back to report, "General Li Tong sent a message, and the enemy generals Fu Kuang and Liu Min fled in the army and were dragged by him.

General, please go immediately to encircle and suppress the enemy!"

The scout's words made both Cao Hong and Xu Huang slightly stunned, and then Cao Hong immediately made a decision.

"Gongming, you know me. Hong has always done good things. What you and Wenda said today are very reasonable, but Liu Xuande is really not a strong enemy!

Today we will retreat first and wait until we defeat the enemy, then we will shrink our troops and plan for it slowly!"

After Cao Hong finished speaking, he didn't even say anything more to Xu Huang. He immediately let out a roar.

"All the soldiers will follow me to charge and kill Auxiliary Kuang and Liu Min... and reward them with money... all the time!"

Although this reward is not very tempting, it is already very difficult for Cao Hong, who is like the reincarnation of Pixiu.

Fortunately, everyone knows that apart from being stingy about money and silk, Cao Hong is quite loyal in other matters, so they also know that if he has merit, Cao Hong will definitely not fall behind them.

"Kill!"

With the roar of the soldiers, the army rushed forward again, and at the same time, scouts were constantly sent out to patrol the surrounding areas.

"Kill the thief!"

"Hold..."

"Rush over to me! Rush over to me!"

"Crossbowman, shoot this beast!"

"Don't worry about the top of your head, rush over and cut down these damn archers for me..."

When Cao Hong and Xu Huang arrived at the battlefield, Li Tong was locked in an absolute stalemate with Fu Kuang and Liu Min.

Li Tong's constant pursuit has already caused a lot of losses to Fu Kuang and Liu Min, and his strength has naturally been greatly reduced.

Therefore, after the battle, Li Tong immediately ordered his soldiers to charge towards the opponent's central army again and again, and even led his own soldiers to charge towards the opponent several times.

But no matter how hard he attacked this group of "broken troops", he could not completely defeat them. The remaining soldiers and horses seemed to have been eliminated, and their resilience had far exceeded the time when they were fighting.

This already made Li Tong feel that something was wrong, but before he could tell Cao Hong about it, he saw Cao Hong rushing over in a hurry.

Then without saying a word, he personally led people to join the battlefield, leaving only Xu Huang with more than a thousand people stationed on the periphery just in case...

"General Cao Hong, how did you come so fast?" After Li Tong saw Cao Hong charging towards him, he immediately felt his scalp numb.

"Hey, Wenda, what does this mean? It's not that you sent people to tell us to wait and let me join you as soon as possible..."

"The general has never sent anyone to say this!" Li Tong interrupted Cao Hong's smile with a scream, and Cao Hong and Xu Huang suddenly felt a sense of panic in their hearts.

"You didn't... Oops!" Cao Hong completely reacted at this time. No matter what happened, this must be a trap for them, "Evacuate immediately..."

Cao Hong understood and believed Xu Huang's words, but it was already too late.

"Rumble~" There were bursts of dull sounds in the distance, like thousands of horses galloping, and there was like a roaring mountain and a tsunami...

"It's really a river..." Cao Hong looked at the suddenly turbulent river not far away, and immediately knew that Xu Huang had guessed right again. These guys had indeed disturbed the river in Jiangxia County...

"It's flooded!" A cry came from somewhere, and the rushing river water rushed out of the river channel that had not yet been repaired, and filled the entire battlefield in an instant.

Fu Kuang and others who had been prepared for a long time immediately retreated with their troops. Pang Yan from afar also came with rafts and boats to pick them up.

Even if you really can’t make it in time, you can still swim in the water temporarily...

But what Fu Kuang's men can do, Cao Hong and others may not be able to do...

"Kill!" The sound of drums resounded all around again, and the rushing river flooded the battlefield and drowned the soldiers. Boats carrying the soldiers also came to them along the river.
