Cao Chang is Cao Cao's third son, Cao Ang, Cao Pi's younger brother, and Cao Zhi's elder brother.

The year of his birth is unknown, but Cao Pi was born in 187 AD, because Cao Zhang and Cao Pi are the same mother, so Cao Zhang was born in 188 at the earliest, and now he is only thirty-eight years old.

Although Huang Xu is brave, Sima Yi knows Cao Zhang's ability and feels that Huang Xu is not Cao Zhang's opponent.

Next.

Cao Zhang, on the orders of Sima Yi, led dozens of horsemen out of Tongguan and came to the Han army camp to challenge.

A soldier rushed into the Chinese army's tent and reported to Huang Xuyu: "Report, General Qiyu, there are people outside the camp who are challenged." ”

Huang Xu was holding a letter in his hand, which was sent by Liu Changang to ask him to be careful.

Huang Xu put the letter in his arms and said to the generals: "Your Majesty just sent someone to inform me that Sima Yi should arrive at Tongguan, let me be careful. There are people who come out to challenge this Tongguan, which is really interesting.

Can the person who came have a name to report? ”

The soldier arched his hand and said: "The general will claim to be Cao Zhang!" ”

"Cao Zhang?" Huang Xu was shocked when he heard this: "This Cao Zhang is the son of Cao Cao, brave and extraordinary, I followed my father on the Northern Expedition and saw him once, this person's martial arts are not inferior to Zhao and Lin's two generals."

However, Cao Cao died of illness, and after Cao Pi took the throne, Cao Zhang had never been in charge of soldiers and horses, and he didn't want Cao Rui to send this person out. ”

The first general arched his hand and asked: "Cao Zhang is challenging outside the camp, will the general fight or not?" ”

"Let's go out and see!" Huang Xu did not make a decision, but led his troops to Yuanmen first.

Cao Zhang led dozens of cavalry outside the Han army camp, since Cao Cao's death, he has not been in battle for six years to kill the enemy, the knife is rusty, and now he can go to the battlefield again, Cao Zhang's mood can be imagined.

"Scold me, the more ugly the scolding, the better, you must scold Huang Xu for me!" Cao Zhang asked the soldiers to scold, wanting to provoke Huang Xu to fight him.

"Huang Xu, you shrunken turtle, do you dare to come out to fight?"

"My Marquis of Yanling of Great Wei is here, if you are afraid and dare not go to war, just come out obediently and kowtow to the general three times."

"Shrunken turtle, you're coming out!"

The cavalry of the Wei army scolded one after another, but the level of their scolding was not high, Huang Xu came out of the gate, and was not provoked by them, but observed the situation.

Huang Xu looked at it for a while and muttered: "The Wei army has dozens of cavalry, and the war drums have been set up at the head of Tongguan City, it seems that the Wei army just wants to challenge me."

Although Cao Zhang is brave, I am not afraid, but His Majesty wants me to be cautious, I don't know why Cao Zhang came out to challenge, for the sake of caution, we don't have to fight, let them scold. ”

Huang Xu said that, and wanted to urge the horse to return to the camp.

"You scolded him like this, how can you scold him!"

Seeing that Huang Xu wanted to urge the horse to return to the camp, Cao Zhang suddenly became anxious, and scolded: "Huang Xu, I heard that you are born in Shengkou, and Shengkou should serve people, and it is not your job to lead the army to fight." Even if you are the son of Huang Zhong's husband, you are still a mouthful. ”

"The puppet is too deceitful!" Huang Xu was furious when he heard this.

Whoever has the reverse scale in his heart, and whoever touches the reverse scale will die.

It's like Goujian, the king of Yue, in order to return to Yueguo, he did not hesitate to eat for Wu Wangfu to gain his trust, and then tried his courage and finally returned to the country.

But after King Goujian of Yue returned to the country, he was the hero who killed him and assisted him.

Zhu Yuanzhang was born as a beggar monk, and after becoming the emperor, if anyone dares to talk about the past, he will inevitably die.

Because successful people don't want anyone to know about his down-and-out past.

Although Huang Xu is not this kind of person, when he was working in Fu Shiren's house, it was the most painful time in his life, and now Cao Zhang is agitated with this, not to mention insulting Huang Zhong, Liu Chan and Huang Zhong are his most important benefactors, how can Huang Xu not be angry.

"Cao Zhang, give me death!"

Huang Xu pulled out his horse and turned around, rushed out of the camp, shouted, and rushed straight to Cao Zhang.

"Cheer on the general!" Seeing this, the soldiers of the Han army hurriedly set up war drums.

"Huang Xu is out, hurry up and beat the drum!" At the head of Tongguan City, Sima Yi also ordered the soldiers to beat the war drums to cheer for Cao Zhang.

"The shrunken turtle finally dares to come out!" Cao Zhang's face was full of excitement when he saw Huang Xu fighting, and for a moment he only felt that his body was full of strength, and he shouted loudly, and he also rushed towards Huang Xu.

The two horses collided, the long knives collided in the air, the flames shot out, and the piercing sound of gold and iron was transmitted to all directions.

"Come again!"

The two horses staggered, and almost simultaneously they turned their heads and charged at each other.

Turning the horse's head at the same time means that the strength of the two is about the same, if the difference in strength is large, the weaker one will be slower, because the long knife fights, there will be a counterattack force.

The weaker side has more time to unload the force, so whoever can take a good time and return to the battle can take the lead and occupy an advantage.

The strength of the two is about the same, and when they turn the horse's head at the same time, they can't distinguish the superior in a short period of time.

Huang Xu was born in 197, this year is thirty, martial arts have completely entered the peak state, and Liu Chan has also improved his martial arts, his teacher Huang Zhong, learned a superb knife technique, these years of crusade in the east and west, combat experience is very rich.

Cao Zhang's age is nearly forty, and his martial arts have long been at their peak, and he followed Cao Cao to fight in the east and west in his early years, and his combat experience was no worse than Huang Xu.

However, Cao Zhang has not been on the battlefield for six years, since Cao Cao died of illness and Cao Pi ascended the throne, Cao Zhang felt that he had no hope of going to the battlefield again.

However, in the past, Cao Zhang's martial arts were comparable to Zhao Yun, although his martial arts had regressed, but he was not weak Huang Xu.

The two turned horses and fought for more than 50 rounds, fighting straight to the point of flying sand and rocks, and the resonance of gold and iron was endless, and there was still no winner or loser.

"Okay, Mingjin let Hou Ye come back!"

Sima Yi raised his head and saw that the sun had reached the top of his head, and the time came to noon, so he ordered Hao Zhao on the side.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

A burst of golden sounds sounded, and when Cao Zhang heard the sound, he had to fight back Huang Xu and lead his troops back to Guanzhong.

"Dudu, I was about to kill Huang Xu, why did Ming Jin withdraw his troops!" Cao Zhang returned to Tongguan and came to the city to question Sima Yi.

Although Cao Zhang didn't want to withdraw from the army, Mingjin was a military order, and if he didn't obey the military order, he would have violated military law, which was a crime of killing his head.

In the military, the first military order is to enforce the ban.

"Master Hou doesn't have to be anxious!" Sima Yi smiled and said, "I said that if you try to defeat the Shu army, this is just the beginning." ”

Cao Zhang asked, "How to defeat the Shu army?" ”

Sima Yi said with a smile: "Today, Hou Ye is out of the customs to challenge, Huang Xu is afraid of Hou Ye's bravery, he must be cautious, and then Hou Ye only needs to challenge during the day, and send troops to feint at night, so that after a few days, the Shu army must be exhausted, so as to withdraw the troops, if the Shu army leaves the camp, I will have a way to defeat them." ”
