Chapter 435: Three Thousand Cavalry Zhao Zilong
Zhao Hui, who was far away in Jizhou, also knew the news of Cao Cao's entry into Qingzhou for a long time.
It's just that Zhao Hui at that time also didn't expect that Cao Cao's purpose would be to grab the population.
Cao Cao only had more than 20,000 people entering Qingzhou, and Zhao Hui still had great confidence in Xu Huang.
And at that time, even if Zhao Hui wanted to give Xu Huang reinforcements, it was too late in time.
Out of trust in Xu Huang, Zhao Hui did not send anyone to support.
It's just that things are developing, and now they are a little unexpected by Zhao Hui.
The news he has received now is still from Xu Huang a few days ago.
It was Cao Cao's abduction of 200,000 people from the two counties.
Zhao Hui also didn't expect that Cao Cao was going to the population of Qingzhou.
Guo Jia, Xu Shu and others, although their wisdom is very high, they are in Jizhou.
For the matter of Qingzhou Yanzhou, the knowledge is still relatively limited, and it is impossible to analyze Cao Cao's intentions in time.
It was learned that Xu Huang had led a large army to pursue Cao Cao.
Zhao Hui was still a little worried in his heart.
Although Cao Cao's strength has weakened a lot now.
But Zhao Hui never underestimated him.
When he first arrived, Zhao Hui may have underestimated Yuan Shao, Liu Biao, Liu Yu and others in his heart.
But now, any prince, Zhao Hui will not underestimate them.
They may have obvious shortcomings, but there are really few people who can become princes of one side are fools.
None of their wrists will be bad.
Those who really think of them as fools have long been swallowed up by them.
Those romances are just stories.
Those history books were written only by the victors.
It will only portray the great deeds of the victors.
The strengths of the losers will only be weakened, and their weaknesses will be highlighted in order to contrast with the winners.
Zhao Hui will not underestimate Cao Cao.
After receiving Xu Huang's latest letter, Zhao Hui immediately sent Zhao Yun out.
It doesn't matter if the time is still in a hurry or not.
Even if it's very large, it may be a trip in vain.
But if he can catch up, Xu Huang can pester Cao Cao for more time.
Zhao Yun had been following Zhao Hui, and he set off directly from the camp of Jieqiao.
Led three thousand cavalry, did not choose infantry.
After Dong Zhuo's death, among all the princes, Zhao Hui had the most cavalry in his hands. It is also the strongest.
Two thousand Mo sword iron cavalry can sweep all the cavalry in the world.
However, this time, Zhao Hui did not send a Modao Iron Horseman.
Of the 3,000 cavalry led by Zhao Yun, 1,000 were Karasuma cavalry, 1,000 were Xianbei cavalry, and 1,000 were light cavalry from Youzhou.
From Youzhou to the present, Zhao Hui basically did not use the cavalry of Xianbei Karasuma.
Now it's time for them to help.
Zhao Yun took 3,000 cavalry and set off from Jieqiao, all the way to the east, passing through half of Jizhou.
Although the east of Jizhou is not under the control of Zhao Hui.
But Yuan Shao's current main force is south of the boundary bridge.
The 3,000 cavalry led by Zhao Yun passed through the eastern half of Jizhou and did not encounter the obstruction of Yuan's army.
Unless Yuan Shao is willing to transfer troops and horses from the southern base camp to stop Zhao Yun.
Otherwise, relying on the strength of the counties in the east of Jizhou alone, even if they sent troops to stop Zhao Yun, they would not be able to stop Zhao Yun's cavalry impact.
Zhao Yun didn't go to attack them, these counties were too guarded, and they didn't want to do much.
After all, if Zhao Yun was let over, even if Yuan Shao blamed him, they could still make excuses and excuse Zhao Yun as a cavalryman, and they couldn't keep up.
But if they failed to stop them, they were killed by Zhao Yun.
When Yuan Shao blames him, they will have no excuse.
Nowadays, most of these counties are too guarded, and most of them report the mentality of not seeking merit but seeking no fault.
They just need to defend their county town and wait for Yuan Shao and Zhao Hui to decide the winner.
They really don't want to take care of other things, and they can't take care of them.
Most of the soldiers in the county town have been transferred by Yuan Shao.
Grain and grass were also transported to Yuan Shao's granary.
If 3,000 cavalry came to attack the city, they could still defend it and wait for Yuan Shao's reinforcements.
But the three thousand cavalry just passed under the city, and no one dared to go out of the city to provoke these Taishou.
If they send troops out of the city to stop Zhao Yun, it may not be enough for Zhao Yun to kill.
The speed of the cavalry was high.
Even if Yuan Shao wanted to stop Zhao Yun, he needed to send cavalry.
The cavalry in Zhao Hui's hands, if you add Xianbei Karasuma, has exceeded 10,000 people.
But Yuan Shao now only occupies Jizhou.
Youzhou and the state are all under the control of Zhao Hui.
The war horses of the northern grasslands are all under the control of Zhao Hui.
There is no way for horse dealers to send war horses from the grassland to the interior of the Han Dynasty.
The cavalry in Yuan Shao's hands is now only more than 2,000 people.
So he could only watch Zhao Yun leave with three thousand cavalry, but there was no other way.
Yuan Shao did not dare to send out his two thousand cavalry.
Without the supply of war horses, every cavalry was very precious to Yuan Shao.
Ordinary soldiers, Yuan Shao doesn't care about the number of dead and wounded, he just continues to recruit when he dies.
Anyway, there are people in Jizhou.
But cavalry was different.
Every time Yuan Shao wants to replenish it, it is very difficult.
Today's horse dealers, if they want to traffic war horses, must be very careful.
Many people choose to enter and exit from Chang'an.
The war horses that can come to Jizhou are very rare.
Although it was Yuan Shao who asked Cao Cao to go to Qingzhou.
But now seeing that Zhao Hui sent people to Qingzhou, Yuan Shao did not plan to support Cao Cao.
He is now facing more and more pressure from Zhao Hui.
He needed Cao Cao to help him and contain more of Zhao Hui's strength.
Zhao Yun led 3,000 cavalry, almost unimpeded at the border of Jizhou.
3,000 people, 200 miles a day.
It took four days to enter the Qingzhou boundary.
At this time, Xu Huang was fighting with Cao Cao at the entrance of the snake road.
Xu Huang is no longer just about stalling for time.
He wanted to seize the entrance to the snake path.
Cao Cao had also retreated to the entrance of the snake road.
And Xu Huang is now ten zhang away from the entrance.
The fighting between the two sides is getting fiercer.
But even if the Yellow Turbans pay a huge price.
At this ten zhang distance, Xu Huang couldn't take a step closer.
It is all under Cao Cao's control to allow Xu Huang to get close here.
At this moment, in front of Cao Cao, there are only a thousand soldiers left.
Behind Xu Huang, a cloud of dust was raised.
Zhang Xiaoshun finally arrived with his people.
And Cao Cao, at this time, retreated into the snake road.
His figure finally disappeared from Xu Huang's sight.
Xu Huang failed to seal the entrance and stop Cao Cao after all.
The outermost 1,000 Cao troops slowly retreated into the snake road.
And in Xu Huang's hands, the remaining Yellow Turban Army can finally be pressed in.
But he was still blocked at the entrance to the snake path and failed to rush into the snake path.
Cao Hongxia Hou Yuan was in charge of the broken queen.
The two of them took a thousand Cao soldiers and guarded the entrance of the snake road.
They are to stay here for at least a day.
The entrance to the snake road is only one zhang wide.
It is more difficult for Cao's army to defend this place than to break through a checkpoint.
