Chapter 917: The Yellow Sparrow is behind
At this moment, the person who led the troops to attack and kill from the rear was none other than Huang Zhong, the general of Jinling.
Zhao Yun and Tai Shici now accompanied Ma Teng and Han Sui to pacify the counties in Guanzhong, so that in the main force of the pottery merchants, the generals were all led by Huang Zhong.
It's just that while the potters sent Ma Chao and Xu Chu as the vanguard this time, they did not issue a military order for Huang Zhong to respond in the main military camp.
So why is this old man here again?
The generals of the Cao army could not care much about the attack from the rear at this moment, and they immediately rearranged and deployed the offensive strategy to carry out an effective counterattack against the enemy.
Xiahou Yuan instructed Yan Xingdao: "You stay here, deal with it carefully, don't let Ma Chao and Xu Chu rush out in chaos, I will lead my troops to turn around and take a look!" ”
Yan Xing didn't dare to slack off, and then arched his hand and said, "No! ”
Xiahou Yuan immediately led his troops and rushed back.
Pang De also went with him, but before he could catch Huang Zhong's soldiers and horses, Xiahou Yuan got the news again, saying that it was Lu Yi, Xu Huang, Ji Ling, Zhang He, and Gao Ran who had sent another direction to kill the generals, and they had already exchanged hands with their own peripheral soldiers.
Everyone couldn't help but be shocked when they heard this.
Xiahou Yuan couldn't take care of it much at the moment, and immediately arranged for the rest of the Cao generals, led by Pang De, Dian Wei, Li Dian, Le Jin, Yu Ban and others, to go to the side to meet the generals of the Jinling Army, while Xiahou Yuan himself went straight to Huang Zhong.
Zhao Yun and Tai Shici were not there, and Huang Zhong seemed to have become the number one master of the Jinling Army.
The two sides fought, Huang Zhong waved the war knife in his hand unhurriedly, and everywhere he went, although he didn't look like there were so many strong means and moves, the people who confronted him head-on felt that his body was full of pressure.
In this way, Huang Zhong took the lead, and he was killed in front of Xiahou Yuan in a short time.
When Xiahou Yuan met Huang Zhong, he yelled: "Huang Zhong traitor, dare to be so arrogant? Ben will not spare you today! ”
Huang Zhong fixed his eyes, and then the light of the torches in the hands of the soldiers behind him, saw clearly that it was Xiahou Yuan, and then laughed: "Who should I be?" It turned out to be you, a thief, who was just defeated, how dare you speak bravely? ”
Xiahou Yuan roared angrily: "Which one of your subordinates is defeated? The old thief is not going to talk nonsense! ”
People have a good face, especially men, and even more so men with status.
What kind of person is Xiahou Yuan? Anyway, he is also the important general of Cao Jun, and he is also a trusted and beloved general under Cao Cao, not to mention that he is more favored and trusted on weekdays, and since Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren's death, he has also become the number one general in the clan.
At that moment, he saw Xiahou Yuan carrying a gun and riding a horse, and went straight to Huang Zhong to kill him.
Huang Zhong smiled and fought with Xiahou Yuan, and the two competed back and forth on the battlefield, fighting alone.
With Xiahou Yuan's ability, even if he didn't win in the face of Huang Zhong, there was no problem in fighting dozens of rounds.
But now in this situation, Xiahou Yuan is obviously not good.
Because he was extremely angry now, he inevitably lost his usual level between his moves, and just blindly attacked Huang Zhong, and his calm value was greatly reduced.
Twenty rounds later, Huang Zhong found a flaw in Xiahou Yuan, roared, and swept with a knife, directly injuring Xiahou Yuan's left arm.
Xiahou Yuan screamed in pain, the spear in his hand fell directly into the dust, he hurriedly reined in his horse and fled towards the rear.
Huang Zhong was not in a hurry, but chased after Xiahou Yuan unhurriedly.
At this time in the valley, Xu Chu and Ma Chao heard the sound outside and couldn't help but be curious.
Xu Chu turned his head suspiciously, and asked Ma Chao: "Brother Xian, how can there be such a loud shout of killing outside?" Could it be that our reinforcements have come to our rescue? ”
Ma Chao shook his head and said, "I don't know, it stands to reason that it shouldn't be...... When we came, the prime minister only said that you and I would be the vanguard of the front, and did not say that he would send troops and horses to meet us. ”
Xu Chu thought about it carefully and said, "Since this is the case, it means that this is a ploy by the other party to lure us out!" It must be Cao Jun's trick, hehe, let's not be fooled. ”
Ma Chao narrowed his eyes, pondered carefully for a while, and then clapped his hands suddenly, and said, "Brother Gaojian, this must be a trick set up by Cao Jun for us!" ”
Xu Chu snorted and said: "Brother Xian, it's not for my brother to blow it to you, I have followed the prime minister to fight for many years, and over the years, I have seen many conspiracies and tricks, and I have seen a lot of tricks for my brother who are even more surprising than this!" Today this is a small scene. ”
Ma Chao bowed his hand to Xu Chu: "It's still a great brother!" ”
Xu Chu laughed and said, "That's natural! ”
"Let's not go out, when we're done with our performance later, let's go out and kill them by surprise!"
……
At the same time, outside the valley, the battle between the Cao army and the Jinling army was becoming more and more intense.
While fighting bravely with Cao Jun, Ji Ling asked Zhang He beside him suspiciously: "General Zhang, why haven't General Xu and Ma Chao in the valley come out yet?" Didn't they hear the fighting outside the valley? ”
Zhang He smiled slightly, shook his head gently, and said, "I can't say for sure about this, I think the two of them must have some ideas...... Let's ignore them, hurry up and obey the Prime Minister's order, and defeat the enemy army. ”
Ji Ling was puzzled, but continued to rush with Zhang He.
He estimated that Cao Cao would strike first, and the vanguard army in front of his own side would first use ruthless moves, and after defeating himself for a while, he would defend Hanzhong.
Therefore, after discussing with Guo Jia, he decided to make a plan, using Ma Chao and Xu Chu as the vanguard, and arranged for the army to follow.
The current situation is proceeding along the second route.
Cheng Yu and Xun You were also in the army, but they were protected by Cao Chun, Cao's general.
The Jinling Army's combat power is very strong, and it will not take long to completely suppress the Cao Army, with the eyes of Xun You and Cheng Yu, it is natural to be able to see that this matter is not easy to handle.
"Withdraw to Yangping Pass!" Xun You made up his mind and instructed Huang Shaodao, the general of the Cao army: "Quickly send someone to inform all departments and quickly withdraw to Yangping Pass, if it is delayed for a long time, there will be any problems." ”
Cheng Yu looked around anxiously and said, "There are so many Jinling soldiers right now, I'm afraid it's not so easy to withdraw." ”
At this moment, there was a shout of killing in the southeast corner.
However, it was Yan Yan, the general of Shuzhong, and Guan Yu, under Liu Bei, who led the troops to rush over.
The two joined forces to open a bloody road and opened a way for Cao's army to retreat.
As soon as Xun You saw this situation, the stone in his heart fell.
Fortunately, their allies are not stupid, otherwise this battle would not be easy to fight today.
Guan Yu rushed to Xun Yu with a knife and said, "I'm afraid that you will lose in front of you, so I'm here to answer it." ”
"There is labor, there is labor!" Xun Yu arched his hand towards Guan Yu and said, "Please also ask the general to help lead our army to retreat to Yangping Pass quickly, the Tao army has already prepared, and this battle seems to be a little difficult to fight." ”
