"This time I went the extra way, fortunately, I didn't have to carry the burden of military rations!" Xiahou Yuan waved his sword and signaled his subordinates to follow quickly. After crossing the official road of Yingchuan, Xiahou Yuan and his subordinates rode tigers and leopards, and found another way to march at the speed of a tiger's leap.

And the tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers behind him seemed to be familiar with Xiahou Yuan's rapid tactics. After closing the fine iron helmet on his forehead, he immediately turned into a steel tiger and leopard, and jumped into the dust.

This situation and this scene are worthy of what Wei Shu said: Yuan is a general, goes to an emergency, and often surprises the enemy, so the army says that Xiahou Miaocai marches, five hundred in three days, and one thousand in six days.

Since entering the west of Yingchuan and going down the southeast of Yingshui, Xiahou Yuan rushed to the border of Yangren County three days later. After resting on the spot for a day, the tiger and leopard rode here for a day, and then continued to move forward, and the battle report came like snowflakes along the way.

On the morning of August 2, Ma Chao took the lead from his younger brother Ma Dai to join Liang Xing, who had sent troops from Tiger Prison Pass, and rushed to attack Yiyang. Yiyang County is just a small town, and the county is not well guarded and morale is low. After Ma Dai made a feint and camped during the day, he launched a surprise attack at night, beheading more than 600 defenders of Yiyang and defeating more than 3,000 soldiers in Yiyang County. As a result, Yiyang was captured by the Ma family.

On the afternoon of August 3, Ma Chao's subordinate Zhang Xiu went to Yongning. The county commander of Yongning County personally went into battle and fought with Zhang Xiu. Not three-in-one, was embroidered under the horse by Zhang Xiu. The iron knight of the Ma family was greatly boosted and rushed to kill. At that time, Yang Feng's reinforcements arrived again, and they attacked and killed together, and the soldiers of Yongning County were frightened and collapsed at the first touch. As a result, Yongning is also owned by the Ma family.

After the two wars, the fame of Ma Dai and Zhang Xiu spread far and wide, and they shocked Yingchuan.

On August 4, Cai Mao's army finally returned to camp outside Wancheng, saw the banner of the tall tree Ma family at the head of Wancheng City, and heard that Zhang Liao, the heavy general of the Ma family in the city, was in charge, and more than 3,500 heavy armored iron horsemen of the Ma family were approaching, and they did not dare to take their edge. When returning to Xiangyang by the way, Ma Jiajun's generals Zhang Liao and Xu Huang only took dozens of guards out of the city to see them off in person, and talked and laughed and feasted in the more than 40,000 enemy formations, which made Cai Maojun admire and shock. As a result, the name of Zhang Liao and Xu Huang shocked Huaisi.

After Cai Mao retreated, he instructed Wen to hire the Zhongma family to transfer the tiger from the mountain and wanted to kill him. Fortunately, Kuai Liang tried his best to persuade him, and the clerk was able to save his life and be dismissed. There is also another department, Huang Zhong, and there are rumors that there is a secret connection with the Ma family, which makes the subordinate troops suspicious. Cai Mao was furious, and in one fell swoop erased Huang Zhong's achievements in breaking Lu Bu and demoted him to a soldier. And Liu Biao relied on Cai Mao's military strength, so he had to listen to it.

Since then, Xu Rong, Wei Yan, Li Yan, Gao Shun, Zhao Yun and other generals of the Ma family have converged into Wancheng and posted notices to resettle the victims. The people of Wancheng were grateful to the Ma family generals for their rigorous management of the army and their virtue of not disturbing the people and shocking the people, and accepted the victims with joy. At this point, the Ma family's relief to the victims came to an end. In addition, Ma Mengqi broke the case in Yangren County to eliminate violence, and for a time, Ma Mengqi's name of 'General Tian' resounded throughout Jing, Henan, and Yanzhou!

"Ahu, you really know what is going on. Ma Mengqi really only relied on 30,000 Ma Jiajun, under the lack of food and grass, and more than 500,000 disaster victims, to achieve such a brilliant feat, it is really your lifelong rival. If you care about any bullshit covenant and let it sit big, there will be no place for the Cao family in the world! At this moment, Xiahou Yuan, who was hiding in the grass, wiped the sweat on his forehead and muttered. For a moment, Xiahou Yuan was shocked by the content of his battle report, and in the scorching August sun, he actually wondered if the sweat on his head was cold sweat?!

After saying this, Xiahou Yuan casually left a branch and drew a simple map of Yu and Yan on the ground. After contemplating his eyebrows for a while, his brows finally wrinkled, and he angrily threw aside the branch in his hand, angry: "Ma Mengqi deceived people too much!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a young general of the Cao family flew over, and after dismounting, he hugged his fists and reported to Xiahou Yuan: "General! His subordinates have found out that Ma Chao is indeed in Yangren County and has not yet left. There are only more than 300 personal guards. And Yangren County is strong, patchwork, and there are only more than 2,000 people. If it's a starry night surprise attack"

"Don't be reckless!" Xiahou Yuan's frowning brows did not stretch at all, and before the man could finish speaking, he interrupted him and said cautiously: "Since the coiling snake can detect Ma Chao's whereabouts, the shadow of the Ma family may naturally also detect our movements. Ma Chaotian is a person, Wen Lie can't be treated as an ordinary general! ”

It turned out that this young general was Cao Xiu and Cao Wenlie, who were praised by Cao Cao as 'my family's thousand-mile horse'. That Cao Cao treats him like a parent, and the rising star of the Cao family who shares food and clothing with Cao Pi! Cao Xiu is fifteen years old this year, and he serves as a guard in the Cao family's tiger and leopard riders, which are known as 'the world's sharpest'.

"Yes! What the general said, his subordinates wrote it down. "Cao Xiu should call Xiahou Yuan his uncle according to his blood relationship. However, in the army, Cao Xiu has always been commensurate with his military position and has never exceeded it. At this time, he was interrupted by Xiahou Yuan's words, but he didn't have the slightest hint of shame and obeyed his orders with peace of mind. With such a mind at a young age, his future achievements must be even more extraordinary.

However, after saying this, Cao Xiu glanced at the simple drawing that Xiahou Yuan had drawn on the ground before, and after opening his mouth, he didn't say anything. Seeing Cao Xiu's situation, Xiahou Yuan obviously saw that Cao Xiu had something to ask, and said, "Wen Lieke has seen anything?" ”

"The subordinates are stupid, but they just see that this is the military map of Yu and Yanzhou. The specific intentions of the generals are difficult for subordinates to figure out. When Cao Xiu heard this, he took a closer look at the map before answering truthfully.

And Xiahou Yuan saw that Cao Xiu had such a general's demeanor, and he couldn't help but love him more and more. Leaned down, picked up a branch, connected the three counties of Yangren, Yiyang, and Yongning, and said, "So, what can you see?" ”

"Ma Jiajing" Cao Xiu was so clearly stated by Xiahou Yuan, of course he understood his meaning, and couldn't help but open his mouth in shock, and said bitterly: "Ma Chao is only seventeen years old this year, is there really such a talent in the world?!" ”

"Yes, the Ma family has these three counties, so they can use this as the front line and completely block the momentum of my Cao family's soldiers." When Xiahou Yuan saw Cao Xiu's painful appearance, wasn't he extremely painful in his heart? However, he still patted Cao Xiu's shoulder and comforted Cao Xiu: "Wen Lie can't be presumptuous, isn't your uncle Meng De also a hero?" Under him, why can't you compete with Ma Mengqi? ”

After hearing this, Cao Xiu instantly adjusted his state, and said: "What the general said is very true, the Cao family is full of talents, and Xiu should be diligent and upward, and live up to the expectations of the lord!" After saying this, Cao Xiu suddenly slapped himself and said shamefully: "The general forgives the sin, the subordinates forgot, and the military report has not been submitted."

"It doesn't matter." Xiahou Yuan took the military newspaper in Cao Xiu's hand, and after reading it, he looked very excited, and couldn't help but say: "Ah Hide, Ah Hide, you are really a well-deserved hero of our Cao family!" ”

Cao Xiu followed Xiahou Yuan for a while, and it was rare to see Xiahou Yuan laughing so loudly. I couldn't help but step forward and glance at the military newspaper, only to see that it was written: On August 4, the lord pursued Yuan Shu to Ruyang Realm, killed the enemy generals Qiao Rui, Xun Zheng and others, killed more than 6,000 enemies, broke more than 20,000 enemies, and captured countless baggage. Re-attacked Ruyang, broke it, plundered it, and then led the army back to Xuchang.

Cao Xiu saw that Cao Cao had broken Yuan's technique, and it was as if he had won himself, so he couldn't help but want to dance. But seeing Xiahou Yuan's eyes shining at this time, he looked at the Yangren County in front of him, and he didn't know what he was thinking. For a while, Cao Xiu was moved by Xiahou Yuan's calm appearance, and his heart was agitated.

'Ahu, you've achieved such a result. I, Xiahou Miaocai, can't let you down. Today, a certain will definitely break through Yangren County and cut off Ma Chao's head as a congratulatory gift! Xiahou Yuan thought of this, couldn't help but clench the big knife in his hand, turned over and said: "The tiger and leopard ride to obey the order, follow a certain one to attack Yangren County, and cut off Ma Chao's head!" ”
