Zhang Liao laughed and said: "Although your tiger and leopard cavalry are strong, our Lu Jun cavalry are not afraid of you. Hahaha, let's compare today, who is the strongest on the outside and the best on the inside!"

Cao Zhen knew that it was impossible to get rid of Zhang Liao now, so he had no intention of retreating and mustered up the momentum to fight to the death!

Although more than half of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were defeated, they knew that they would have to fight to the death to escape, so they rushed over at once.

Who is Zhang Liao? The soldiers he brought out were both cavalry and invincible. As soon as he heard this, he couldn't bear it anymore. When he saw Cao Zhen coming to attack him, when Zhang Liao gave the order, he also rushed forward with enthusiasm. In a moment, sand and stones were flying.

, smoke and dust billowing, the cavalry's combat ability is extremely strong, and of course it is also the most noisy. It is no exaggeration to say that the place where they fought was like flying sand and rocks. There were the sounds of fighting halberds, the neighing of horses, and the sounds of people everywhere.

The sound of screaming and killing...

Zhang Liao's fighting methods are different from Gao Shun's, but the essence is the same.

He is definitely a general who takes the lead, and he is very good at attacking cities and territories, including winning people's hearts. His famous saying is, this is what the so-called one can win, and the brave can win!

He is a general who absolutely believes in the victory of the brave when faced with a narrow road. Such a person has no idea what a retreat is and what fear of death is. Therefore, how can the soldiers and horses led by a general with such an unyielding will be a coward?

!

Zhang Liaoshan fought to the death, and so did his troops! Once he made up his mind to fight to the death, he would never retreat!

But Cao Zhen is different. Cao Zhen needs to withdraw his elite troops to join Cao Ren and cover Cao Cao.

He needs to retreat, while Zhang Liao needs to advance and stop him.

Comparing the two, although Cao Zhen is not weak in strength, he has lost momentum for a while.

Zhang Liao slashed with his broadsword, but Cao Zhen blocked it with a cold sweat, and the tiger's mouth was numb for a moment. Zhang Liao was so calm and wise. Seeing Cao Zhen gradually panicking, he slightly raised the corner of his mouth and shouted: "Why don't you dismount and accept surrender!?"

/p>

Cao Zhen's eyes became more and more angry. Because of his anger, his movements became more and more unorganized, and gradually even the horse's pace became chaotic.

Feeling Cao Zhen's unsteady breathing, Zhang Liao sneered and said: "You are young and full of energy, but unfortunately your strength is slightly weaker. It is not appropriate after all. Dismount and surrender, and save your life!"

Cao Zhen was furious and sneered: "Even if I die here, I will never surrender to you!"

Youth has the shortcomings of young people, that is, they are very energetic and cannot be inspired. Old generals also have the shortcomings of old age, that is, they cannot be said to be old and useless.

Zhang Liao was so insightful into people's hearts that he had figured out Cao Zhen's temperament after several battles, so he only stabbed him where it hurt. How could Cao Zhen bear such humiliation? The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

It’s messy, and the more messy it is, the easier it is to make mistakes.

But he didn't know the harm in it.

This mentality, tsk tsk, how can it be compared to an experienced driver with extremely rich combat experience?!

How many battles have Zhang Liao and Gao Shun fought? How many young and energetic generals have they seen, and how many have been killed by their horses?

Today he wanted to bite Cao Zhen to death, but Cao Zhen couldn't get away easily. However, his strength was not weak. Although he was at a disadvantage and could only block Zhang Liao's sword, he still had great strength and his breath had staying power.<

/p>

"If you persist, I'm afraid that all your tiger and leopard cavalry will soon be defeated here. There is really no need to persist anymore..." Zhang Liao's sword skills were very exciting, and Cao Zhen was getting more and more stressed, and his forehead was

Sweat dropped like beads.

He glanced around and his pupils shrank slightly. It turned out that Zhang Liao's elite cavalry were really riding on tigers and leopards.

The tiger and leopard cavalry are stronger if they are strong, but in the end they are slightly inferior to Zhang Liao. It is no wonder that the Lu army belongs to Lu Bu's army after all. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the army of tigers and wolves. Zhang Liao is a good leader in fighting, and the cavalry

In his hands, it was truly like a sharpened blade, giving full play to all his advantages, looking both cruel and cold.

Seeing more and more casualties coming from tigers and leopards, it felt like Cao Zhen had been stabbed in the eye.

Several of his lieutenants could no longer bear it, and fought and shouted: "General, if we are entangled here today, we will all be trapped here. General is the soul of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. I hope you can leave first. I will leave this place to you."

The end will wait..."

When Cao Zhen heard this, he felt even sadder. He pursed his lips tightly, his eyes were sore and swollen, and something sour rushed through him, but his lips were trembling and he couldn't say a word.

"General, please don't hesitate. The Lord's place still needs a general..." Several lieutenants rushed over in tacit understanding, working together to block Zhang Liao, and said to Cao Zhen without looking back: "General, leave quickly! Don't stay here.

!"

Cao Zhen cried: "How can I really run for my life alone?!"

Several lieutenants were suppressed and beaten by Zhang Liao, while he said: "We are trying to protect the general with our lives, which is to work together to protect the lord. When the general returns to the lord, reorganize the tiger and leopard cavalry, and then take revenge with us!"

"Go quickly, my lord, don't make any mistakes, put the overall situation first!" the deputy general shouted.

Cao Zhenxin was furious, and he reined in his horse in frustration and indignation. He didn't dare to look back, he just patted the horse and ran away.

The tiger and leopard cavalry were slowly being killed by Lu Jun. Even Zhang Liao killed these lieutenants one by one, and he had to sigh his loyalty at this time.

At that moment, Zhang Liao saw that Cao Zhen had escaped without a trace, so he did not pursue him. He just killed the tiger and leopard riders one by one. Except for Cao Zhen who ran away, the entire tiger and leopard camp was destroyed.

Zhang Liao gathered up his cavalry and asked: "How many casualties have we suffered?!"

"One hundred and eighty people were killed, and more than 360 were injured. The enemy army was completely destroyed, half of the horses were killed, and the other half belong to our army!" the deputy general stepped forward and said happily.

Zhang Liao calculated the men and horses and said: "A thousand people will follow me to continue chasing, while the others will protect the dead and wounded and return to Pengcheng!"

"Yes!" the deputy general responded, not daring to delay at the moment, quickly packed up a thousand elites, and quickly chased Cao Zhen.

However, there was no trace of Cao Zhen anywhere, so Zhang Liao gave up the idea of ​​looking for Cao Zhen and hurried to Surabaya to help in the battle.

Cao Zhen was also rushing there like crazy.

The entire Tiger Leopard Battalion was wiped out. It was so tragic that Cao Zhen felt that he might as well just die. However, if a gentleman is not shamed, how can he regroup and avenge his previous humiliation?

Now everyone in Cao's camp, including Cao Zhen, has a truly clear understanding of Lu Jun.

The Lu army was very strong, and his generals were even stronger, including Zhang Liao, Zang Ba, Gao Shun... so strong that even when Cao Cao led his army, most of them suffered defeats.

They paid a huge price to realize this clearly.

Lu Bu's army is no longer the same as before.

Cao Cao, including everyone in Cao's army, must clearly understand the true power of Xuzhou.

Only by recognizing this point and facing it squarely can it be possible to truly defeat the enemy.

Cao Cao is not someone who cannot afford to lose. Although Cao Zhen is embarrassed and his face is dull, he also clearly knows that he must go back to plead guilty, but he can regroup and kill the enemy again!

Cao Ren's heart was pounding. After passing Surabaya, he could reach Xiapi.

He stopped his troops and ordered them to set up camp to rest, and then went out to inspect the boundaries of Surabaya himself.

Cao Chun followed him, and Cao Ren said to him: "I am very uneasy. There is no news about Zidan yet, and he has not followed up. It must be very difficult for the pursuers behind him. If there is an ambush on the other side, the pursuers will follow up.

Our army is crossing the middle reaches of the river and may be severely defeated..."

Cao Chundao: "How is the commander-in-chief doing?! Do you have a plan?!"

Cao Ren said: "Although we can arrange rear troops to prevent sneak attacks when someone crosses the river, I am still worried that my lord has done something wrong. So far, no news has been sent to Xiapi. I feel really uneasy, so I want to divide the troops.

Divide one force to attack Xiapi from afar and choose another route. This force will be led by Zihe!"

Cao Chun pondered for a moment, but did not refuse, he just said: "Is it necessary to do this?!"

"It's best this way!" Cao Ren said: "My army took a detour and came here a long time ago. I'm just afraid something might happen in Xiapi, and Zihe would choose another way to go. I can also explore the way first and see what happens to my lord! If

If something happens, you need to send a scout as soon as possible to report it!"

Cao Chun was stunned and a little worried, and said: "Okay."

Without further delay, Cao Chun ordered five thousand soldiers and quietly went downstream.

Seeing Cao Chun leaving, Cao Ren's tense heart still did not relax.

He looked around Surabaya and the other side, but he couldn't see anything clearly.

However, he knew that he had to cross the river tomorrow no matter what. He was afraid that he would not be able to come to Cao Cao's aid in time.

Now more scouts were sent to check both sides of the river.

Early on the next morning, rafts were built to prepare the front army to cross the river, while the rear army was prepared to prepare for the pursuit of troops behind them.

Sure enough, Cao Ren's premonition came true. Halfway across the river, Zang Ba emerged from the grass with his elite troops. Arrows were fired. Cao Ren's army was in a state of chaos. Countless people died and were washed away by the water, and even more retreated. For a moment, it was like chaos.

Ma, later Langya soldiers arrived to attack together. For a moment, Cao Renjun was in a state of confusion.

Cao Ren hastily crossed the river with his remaining soldiers, but he met Zang Ba, and a fight broke out for a while. Cao Ren was so angry that he even cursed in anger, "Taishan thieves, Ren knew that you and others would be there."

Ambush..."

Just because he guessed it, he still rushed to help Cao Cao and was deceived.

This is a matter of choice. At this time, Cao Ren finally arrived in Surabaya and was about to reach Xiapi. Even if there were many crises, he could still get through it.

This is the mission, even if you know you will fall into the trap.

Zang Ba did not want to talk to him, but insisted on clinging to him. He led more than ten thousand people and beat Cao Ren until he was dizzy and had stars in his eyes. Although he was angry and hateful, he had to deal with it reluctantly.<

/p>

They went crazy all the way to Pi City. Cao Ren's army was naturally divided into two parts. Zhang Liao rushed to the other side with more than a thousand people, and chopped down Cao Ren's rear army and the scattered Cao troops like melons and vegetables, killing them.

It was almost the same, so he crossed the Si River to hunt down Cao Ren.

At this time, the Si River was full of blood, with corpses strewn across the field. The water was dyed red with blood. Cao Chun, who was downstream, was crossing the river when he saw it.

To an ambush!"
