On the side of Yangping Pass, Ma Chao heard the shouting of killing from the camp of Cao Jun's mountain pass, and gathered at the head of the city with all the generals to watch.

Seeing that Cao's army was retreating, Ma Chao sent scouts to Zhang Fei to report the situation and exchange military information.

The scout returned after a short time and reported to Ma Chao that Zhang Fei had arrived with a large army, captured the Cao army camp, and captured Xiahou Ba alive.

Ma Chao heard the words and said to a group of Hanzhong generals: "Everyone, General Zhang Yide has arrived with his troops, and now he has captured the Cao army camp, the Cao army has lost two formations in a row, I have challenged one after another in the past few days, they are also full of sharpness, it is not difficult to defeat them, when the time comes, we can lead the troops into Hanzhong to defeat Cao Cao, at that time, Hanzhong will be owned by my lord, you can rest easy, right?" ”

"Great, General Zhang has finally arrived!"

"Yes, now we have no worries!"

"If it weren't for General Ma's strategy for a few days, General Zhang wouldn't have captured the camp so easily."

"Yes, General Ma's soldiers are like gods, and he deserves to be called General Shenweitian."

"Now that Zhang Yide, who has retreated from Cao Bao's hundreds of thousands of troops at Dangyang Changban Bridge, is also here, why worry about Xiahou Yuan being undefeated."

The generals in Hanzhong talked a lot, all of them were happy, Zhang Fei came, Yangping Pass was not lost, it symbolized that Liu Bei's hope for victory was a little bigger, and their hanging hearts in the past few days could also be put down.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang He and Guo Huai, who had recovered from their injuries, led 20,000 soldiers and horses to the Shu camp to challenge.

The camp established by Xiahouba has now become Zhang Fei's camp.

However, the scale of its camp is not large, at most it can only accommodate 10,000 people, last night Zhang Fei placed 10,000 soldiers and horses in the Shu camp, so that the remaining soldiers and horses were camped in the open area behind, and then all the soldiers and horses were settled.

At this moment, there are only 10,000 soldiers and horses in the camp, and the rest of the soldiers and horses are camped in the rear, which is quite scattered, and they are all resting after a busy night.

Therefore, at this moment, it seems that Zhang Fei only brought 10,000 soldiers and horses.

Zhang He led his troops to the front of the camp, and the generals lined up, and one general said: "This Zhang Fei was really bluffing last night, it seems that there are only about 10,000." ”

"Ten thousand soldiers?" Zhang He glanced at the general: "This camp is small and can only accommodate 10,000 people, you know that Zhang Fei has brought 10,000 people, and his army may not be able to accommodate it, so he is stationed in the rear, and he has not personally entered the rear to investigate, so he can't be careless!" ”

Guo Huai said on the side: "I have sent scouts over the mountains and to the rear to investigate, presumably there will be news soon." ”

Zhang He nodded, urged the horse out, and came to the front of the camp and shouted: "Zhang Yide, your grandfather Zhang He is here, do you dare to come out and fight with me?" ”

When Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong and other generals heard the news, they all led their troops out of the camp.

Huang Zhong said to Zhang Fei: "Yide, yesterday you robbed me of my credit, and although this Zhang He named you to fight you today, you have to give it to me." ”

Zhang Fei said unhappily: "Oops! Since this Zhang He is named to fight me, since I am in the battle, besides, he is famous, general, you are old, I am afraid of you..."

"He's famous, so I'm going to fight him!" Huang Zhong snorted coldly, lifted the phoenix mouth Chaoyang knife, and went straight to Zhang He to kill.

"You are just an old pawn, and you dare to come to die!" Zhang He immediately looked at Huang Zhong with disdain on his face and said, "Go back, I, Zhang He, will not kill the old pawn!" ”

Huang Zhong smiled faintly and said: "Zhang He, I thought you were a general under Cao Cao, and what you said must be high-minded, and you don't want to be so pedantic." Seeing that you are also nearly fifty years old, don't you look down on veterans? When you're old in a few years, won't you be like me! ”

Zhang He waved his hand and said: "I don't look down on the veteran, I just think that you are old, and I can't bear to kill him, so quickly retreat and replace Zhang Fei to fight." ”

"Hahaha!" Huang Zhong laughed when he heard this: "Don't you hear that Lian Po is still able to eat at eighty? I, Huang Zhong, am only in my sixties, and I am actually underestimated by you? ”

Huang Zhong turned his head, looked at his adopted son Huang Xu, who was marching with the army in the battle, and shouted: "My son, cheer for me, and see that my father beheaded Zhang He!" ”

"No!" When Huang Xu heard this, he walked to the drum stand and personally cheered for Huang Zhong.

"Huang Zhong?" Listening to Huang Zhong's self-report, Zhang He's eyes narrowed slightly, and his contempt was a little lowered.

The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, Huang Zhong can be ranked as a general under Liu Bei at the age of the sixtieth year, and he must have real skills, and Zhang Fei is on the side, but he did not stop Huang Zhong, so he must be quite confident in him.

"Drumming and cheering!" Huang Xu beat the war drums, and when Zhang He saw this, he also ordered the soldiers to beat the drums.

The war drums rang out, resounding through the surrounding mountains, and there were bursts of echoes, startling hundreds of birds out of the forest.

Zhang He looked at Huang Zhong opposite and said, "Huang Zhong, thinking that you are old, let's make a move first!" ”

"Then it will be as you wish!" Huang Zhong was also not polite, as soon as he urged the war horse under his crotch, the phoenix mouth Chaoyang knife in his hand turned around his waist, and with the help of his waist, he was full of momentum, and went straight to Zhang He's waist to cut it.

"It's coming so fast!" Seeing that this machete was as light as nothing in Huang Zhong's hands, and when it struck, Zhang He didn't dare to be careless, or even dare to make an enemy, so he hurriedly put the spear in his hand in front of his chest.

"Ding!"

The sound of a bell ringing in a temple resounded on the battlefield, and sparks flew everywhere where the long knife and the gun met.

Zhang He stood on the horse, his body staggered, and he was almost shaken off the horse.

Zhang He clamped the horse's belly, stabilized his body, the two horses staggered, and turned back, Zhang He looked at Huang Zhong and exclaimed: "The old guy is so strong!" ”

"Haha, there's something even better!" Huang Zhong laughed, rode his horse and rushed to Zhang He to kill.

Zhang He didn't dare to be careless this time, he held a spear in his hand, raised his spirit, and responded calmly.

The two of them fought in front of the camp, guns and knives, horses stepped on lanterns, and the dust was flying, enveloping the two of them, and the sound of gold and iron was endless.

The two fought from early morning to sunrise, fighting for more than 50 rounds, and still did not win or lose.

Although Huang Zhong has the advantage, he still can't take Zhang He.

Moreover, because of its heavy long knife, old age and decay, it is easy to suffer losses in the long run.

Huang Zhong saw that he couldn't take Zhang He, and thought to himself: "It is better to use the knife trick learned from Yun Chang than to use it on him." ”

Thinking of this, Huang Zhong deliberately bought a flaw, and walked away with a false sword.

"Leave the horseman!" Zhang He was about to chase after him, but suddenly remembered the trick Pang De used a few days ago: "This Huang Zhong Lao'er has an advantage, why do you want to retreat, isn't it the same trick?" ”

Thinking of this, Zhang He stopped the horse and didn't dare to pursue.

Thinking about the fate of Xiahou, he was dragged by Guo Huai and Pang De, and he was stabbed in the back, and he had to recuperate for several months to escape death, but Zhang He didn't dare to take risks.

He only reined in the horse and shouted and scolded on the horse: "Huang Zhongpifu, aren't you going to kill me, why do you retreat!" ”

"It's easy to kill you!"

Huang Zhong turned around and saw that Zhang He was not chasing, put the long knife on his leg, took out the horse treasure carving bow, and pinched an arrow in his hand.

Huang Zhong was facing away from Zhang He at the moment, and Zhang He couldn't see Huang Zhong's movements clearly.

I saw Huang Zhong with his back to Zhang He to complete the action of bending the bow and arrows, and while riding the horse, he turned his body on the horse's back, aimed at Zhang He, and shot the arrow in his hand.
