Xu Rong slapped his horse out of battle, and when he arrived in front of Cao Cao's army, he said: "Cao Cao, if you don't descend quickly, when will you wait?" ”

After speaking, he looked at Cao Cao's remnants with a sympathetic face, and there were only hundreds of people who were still alive to follow Cao Cao here. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info and one by one lost their armor and was embarrassed.

At this time, an adjutant general said: "General, could it be that he still wants to use hundreds of remnants against my nearly 10,000 elites and hit the stone with an egg?" After saying that, there was a burst of laughter behind him.

Xu Rong usually doesn't like to joke with his subordinates, but this time he didn't see it. He was also smiling, but he thought in his heart, let you follow Liu Beiheng and beat Yuting and Ao Cang, isn't it a cow? Isn't it that Lao Tzu is surrounded by Lao Tzu here?

Xu Rong said: "Cao Cao, to descend or not?" ”

Cao Cao scolded angrily: "My generation is a good man, how can you be willing to surrender to a thief!" I'd rather die than surrender! If you want to take my head, come and ask me about the knife in my hand! ”

Xu Rong originally wanted to capture Luoyang alive, but seeing Cao Cao's insistence on not surrendering, his intention was stubborn, and he thought to himself, forget it, if he dies, he will die, and if he can't do it, he will be sent to the first level. There is really no way to delay it, and if it is delayed, Liu Bei will come.

So Xu Rong waved his hand and said, "Attack!" ”

Cao Cao and the others were desperate in their hearts, but the knife in their hands couldn't help but tighten again, thinking, killing one is enough, and killing two is earning. When the two armies were about to meet each other in short arms, they saw that Xu Rong's rear army was in chaos, and then it was accompanied by the earth-shattering shouts of killing. But it was Liu Bei who led the army to come to the rescue, and when he saw Xu Rongjun, he didn't say anything, and washed it with a rain of arrows first.

Xu Rong saw the chaos of the rear army, looked back, and saw Liu Zi's banner flying in the wind in mid-air, and couldn't help but be stupid, and said in his heart What a crow's mouth he is, saying that Liu Bei and Liu Bei are here?

Xu Rong saw that the rear army was in chaos, so he restrained his soldiers and attacked Liu Bei. The two armies were in a mess, and they couldn't take care of Cao Cao for a while.

Cao Cao and the others were about to fight desperately, but they blinked and saw Xu Rong lead people to turn around. After a closer look, it turned out that Liu Bei was here, and I couldn't help but be overjoyed, and I was finally able to escape the sky. Cao Cao raised his sword and said in a loud voice: "Reinforcements have arrived!" We are saved! ”

There was a burst of cheers.

When Xu Rong led the army to rescue the rear army, he met Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong saw Xu Rong from afar, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, took off the magpie painting bow, and raised his arm is an arrow. Xu Rong was so frightened that he turned his horse and left, and ordered: "Retreat!" Retire! ”

Huang Zhong saw that Xu Rong wanted to leave, and another arrow hit Xu Rong's left arm, Xu Rong fell off his horse in response, knowing that Liu Bei's army had a marksman, he didn't dare to slack off, and led the army to retreat under the heavy support of the guards.

When Huang Zhong wanted to take the arrow again, Xu Rong had already gone far. Huang Zhong couldn't help but sigh secretly, after fighting for a long time today, his fingers were a little stiff, otherwise Xu Rong would be his own. It's a shame.

Huang Zhong was about to chase after the horse, and there was another team of people on the side, it was Guan Yu, Guan Yu saw Huang Zhong, and said: "Brother Han Sheng, it can be seen that Xu Rong has come to take his head." ”

Huang Zhong pointed to the direction of Xu Rong's escape and said, "I've fled!" So the two joined forces to pursue Xu Rong, and they chased for thirty miles. The Liangzhou soldiers were intercepted and killed by Liu Bei, and those who fled fled and surrendered. Dead and wounded are not counted.

Liu Bei found Cao Cao, hurriedly dismounted and said, "Is Brother Meng De okay?" ”

Cao Cao laughed and said, "If Xuande is one step late, you can collect my bones here!" ”

Liu Bei saw that although Cao Cao and the others were a little embarrassed, they were unharmed, so he put his mind at ease and said, "It's my fault, I didn't expect Xu Rong to be so treacherous and slippery, and he actually threatened Meng De." ”

So he hurriedly brought his mount over and gave it to Cao Cao, Cao Cao repeatedly pushed and gave way, and seeing that Liu Bei insisted on doing so, he got on Liu Bei's horse, and the two went back to the city together.

Liu Bei is really embarrassed. If Cao Cao ran away when Xu Rong came to attack, Liu Bei would not be able to say anything. But Cao Cao carried it for so long, and the whole army broke up before he began to flee for his life. It bought him time to reorganize his team and concentrate his forces. If it weren't for Cao Cao, Xu Rong would have entered the city. Then the loss will be great. Now the losses are all Cao Cao's men and horses, he basically has no loss, and he has a slight gain, and then look at Cao Cao, more than 5,000 troops, now it is not miserable, only hundreds of generals follow.

After entering Aocang City, Liu Bei estimated that Lao Cao lost his soldiers and lost his generals, and his mood might not be too good, so he didn't hold a banquet to celebrate. After hastily ordering the soldiers in the camp to eat and drink well, he hurried back to his house and discussed with Xun Yu the plan to attack Xingyang next.

Cao Cao returned to the camp, gathered the remnants, and as soon as he carefully examined them, his face became gloomy. His friend and patron, the wealthy man Wei Zi died in the chaos, not only that, but the children of the Cao family and the Xiahou clan died in the battle, these are all family elites, and they lost so much in the first war. How to teach him not to feel distressed.

Cao Cao clenched his fists vigorously with both hands, and said in his heart, he is still not strong enough, or he does not have enough soldiers, and he will not be wide enough! Otherwise, how could he be deceived by Xu Rong today! Don't let such a thing happen again, you are not strong enough, in this troubled world, how to protect yourself, relatives and friends, and clan?

Cao Cao began to think crankily in his heart, on connections, money, and prestige, he is not bad, those flies and dogs, can dominate the place, make waves, and he is dedicated to the country, generously going to the country, but he ended up like this, how unfair is this way of heaven? If people do not do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed. Before you want to do something, you should learn to protect yourself well, otherwise this cannibalistic world will make you really have no bones. Xuande can save himself once, how can he save himself for a lifetime? After all, people still have to rely on themselves!

On the second day, Liu Bei asked Cao Cao to discuss sending troops to attack Xingyang. Cao Cao said: "Xuande, now that I have lost my troops, I won't join in this excitement, Xingyang is now only a lonely city, and Xu Rong was killed by you yesterday." I expect Xingyang to go down soon. I'll stay and guard Aocang. ”

Liu Bei was stunned, he couldn't imagine that Cao Cao, who had always been active on weekdays, was a little disheartened today, and couldn't help but hurriedly say: "Why did Meng De say this, you and I have always advanced and retreated together." This is the case in Yuting and Aocang, and it is naturally the same in Xingyang. Although your troops are scattered, then you and I have fought in Aocang and Yuting repeatedly, and there are thousands of prisoners, so you can choose some strong and strong soldiers, and I will transfer 2,000 elites from the headquarters to you, Meng De or go to Xingyang with me, what do you think? ”

Cao Cao couldn't hear Liu Bei's kindness, but he was also an arrogant person, how could he be pitied, so he laughed and said: "I understand Xuande's kindness, in this way, I will choose 2,000 people among the captives to guard Aocang, and Xuande's elite don't need to be given to me, you can take them all to Xingyang." Xingyang needs you, and I will stay in Aocang for you. ”

Liu Bei and Xun Yu glanced at each other, and when they saw that Cao Cao had made up his mind, they didn't say anything more. The matter was hastily decided. After returning to the camp, Cao Ren said: "Lord, Liu Junhou allocated troops to us, why not?" Under his command, they are all elites in a hundred battles, and they don't know how strong they are compared to our newly recruited soldiers. ”

Cao Cao sighed: "Zixiao, I think it's better to bring this soldier out by yourself." You also said that Xuande's elite soldiers in a hundred battles are under the command of our defeated generals, how can they obey orders in everything? Besides, what can 2,000 soldiers do? I have made up my mind, and when the matter of Xingyang is over, I will go back to Sour Jujube first, find Bao Yuncheng, and return to my hometown to recruit soldiers. The Taishan soldiers are good, and the Prince's Day command is all Taishan soldiers. ”

At this time, Cao Hong next to him began to mutter: "Taishan soldiers are a fart, can they have Danyang soldiers?" ”

Cao Cao heard Cao Hong muttering, so he said, "Zilian, what do you want to say, be louder?" ”

Cao Hong said: "Lord, in my opinion, if you really want to recruit soldiers, I might as well go to Yangzhou, I and Zixiao have been in Huaisi for many years, and have made friends with many heroes, and Yangzhou Thorn History is old, why don't you go to Yangzhou to recruit soldiers, you know, Danyang soldiers are the world's first-class elite soldiers!" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he thought deeply for a while, then patted his thigh and said, "Okay, when this is over, I will go to Yangzhou and Danyang!" ”

Seeing that Cao Cao, who was high-spirited and decided, seemed to be back again, and the four of them couldn't help but look at each other and smile.

Cao Cao said again: "It's good to bury all the brothers who died in battle." Weizi allowed me to bury him personally. By the way, Wei Zixu still has a child, go back this time, see him, and treat him well in the future. We have been able to unite the disciples to this day, thanks to the power of Wei Zixu. Everyone nodded yes.

On the day of Weizi's burial, Cao Cao personally carried the coffin, crying and mourning. When the three armed forces heard this, they were all moved. Liu Bei also arrived, and led the crowd to send Wei Zi a ride. Seeing Lao Cao crying like this, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and thought, Lao Cao is really a lover.

There are reasons why Cao Cao is so sad, one is that he is really sad about Wei Zi's death. Wei Zi is filial piety, strictly speaking, and him, and Liu Bei, are all people in the same class. Familiar with poetry and books, talk elegantly. In the camp in peacetime, Cao Cao and Wei Zi talked about the past and the present together, which was a rare spice in the boring life of the army. The second is such a gentle rich man, who died like this, where will he find it in the future? Thinking that he would have to raise his own army in the future, Cao Cao felt a lot of pressure, and tears couldn't help but come out.

Here Aocang is full of cities, mourning for Weizi and the soldiers who died in battle. Xingyang City, but Xu Rong held his injured arm and commanded the generals to quickly pack everything in Xingyang City, and then prepare to abandon the city and leave.

A lieutenant general was reluctant and stepped forward and asked: "General, it's not that we can't hold Xingyang, why do we give up so easily?" ”

Xu Rong's heart was full of anger, and he just wanted to slap this fool: "Are you a pig brain?" Yuting and Aocang are all lost, Xingyang is alone and helpless, our army is newly defeated, morale is low, how to defend it? Waiting to be besieged by Liu Bei and Cao Cao? Retire! Retreat to Chenggao! Hold it out! This is the way of life of our army, do you understand? ”

When Xu Rong was leaving, he didn't do anything, he didn't stop, arrested the rich families in the city, copied the family property cleanly, and burned all the military rations and treasury that he didn't have time to carry with a torch. Looking at the flames rising into the sky, Xu Rong smiled with a cruel smile on his face, Liu Bei, Liu Bei, Lao Tzu can't hold it, don't think about it!

When Liu Bei's army arrived in Xingyang, he saw refugees outside the city, black smoke billowing from the city, and the sky was full of ashes. Liu Bei immediately knew what Xu Rong had done, and even though he almost blew his lungs in anger: "What a gut!" How dare you set fire to the city! So he hurriedly ordered the three armies to enter the city to fight the fire, without mentioning it.
