In the early morning of the second day, the army started again, and Wang Xu was also arranged to the Chinese army, riding side by side with Huangfu Song and other major generals in the army.

At noon, when Huangfu Song was about to order the army to bury the pot and make rice, a small general suddenly galloped from the corner of the road, and the horsewhip in his hand kept urging, waving bursts of smoke and dust, and rushed to the front in an instant.

"General Yu, General Zhu has met the Yellow Turban thief Marshal Peng Tuo near Xihua! Last night, they set up an ambush and defeated the enemy troops who had plundered the camp. But the yellow scarf is powerful, and it is difficult to overcome it for a while, so the special agent will come down to report the news! ”

After listening to the young general's report, Huangfu Song's brows suddenly furrowed: "Didn't Prime Minister Chen Guoguo's letter say that there are only 20,000 or 30,000 people in this Peng De Division?" How could it be difficult for Gongwei? ”

Hearing this, the young general immediately shook his head and replied: "Report to the general, there are indeed only more than 30,000 people in Peng Tuo's headquarters, but the Runan Yellow Turban has converged with Peng Tuo's thieves, and there are currently 70,000 people. ”

Although he heard that the thief army was powerful, Huangfu Song was not alarmed, nodded, and asked instead: "How far is this place from Xihua?" ”

"If it's a fast horse, it should be half a day's journey!"

"Hmmm! Then you quickly report back to General Zhu, and tell him not to face the battle, and when I arrive with the army, I will think about it in the long run! ”

"No!" The young general bowed, did not hesitate, turned around, and galloped away again.

After he left, Huangfu Song frowned and pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and ordered: "The whole army buries the pot and cooks, rest in place for an hour, before the early hours of this morning, we are bound to meet with General Zhu!" ”

"No!" All the generals beside him, including Wang Xu, all gave their hands together, and then went back to the part to arrange related matters!

And a row of heralds behind the generals rushed to the first time, shouting loudly to convey Huangfu Song's order......

But Wang Xu had just returned to his own department, and as soon as he sent the order, he quickly chased after him, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "General Wang, General Huangfu ordered you to return quickly!" ”

"What's wrong? Didn't you just give the order to rest in place? ”

"There was just a quick Malay report, our army's grain and grass were attacked, and it was in danger......"

"What?" With an exclamation, before Wang Xu had time to say hello to Xu Shu in the distance, he immediately turned over and hurried back to Huangfu Song's side.

When he arrived, several generals were discussing, and before anyone arrived, they asked in a loud voice: "General Huangfu, I heard that our army's grain and grass have been attacked?" ”

Hearing Wang Xu's voice, the generals immediately turned their heads. Huangfu Song glanced at him worriedly, then nodded: "Yes, it is reported that there are more than 10,000 yellow turban elite riders!" ”

"I don't know which general is responsible for escorting grain and grass? How many centaurs! ”

In the face of Wang Xu's outspoken inquiry, Huangfu Song didn't care, but immediately replied: "The grain and grass are escorted by 5,000 infantry led by Zhao Xuan, the captain of Changshui, and I have just received a report that I have sent Gai Sheng, the captain of the Yue cavalry, to lead 5,000 iron cavalry to respond!" ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu breathed a sigh of relief. Although Zhao Xuan, the captain of Changshui, is not high in force, he is quite knowledgeable about soldiers and horses, and his personality is relatively cautious, so it should not be a big problem. And Gai Sheng is extremely good at running and attacking, and it is best to send him to answer it.

While secretly sighing in his heart, Huang Fu Song reacted quickly and was good at using people, but when he thought of the strange thing that the yellow turban actually appeared behind him, he suddenly became puzzled again.

"General Huangfu, I don't know where the Yellow Turbans came from? The Yingchuan Yellow Turban has been flattened, Chen Guo and Runan Yellow Turban are currently in Xihua, it stands to reason that it is impossible to have gone around behind us, but we haven't noticed anything, right? ”

As soon as Wang Xu's words came out, the generals immediately began to discuss again, and Huangfu Song also said suspiciously: "This is what I don't understand, this yellow scarf action is really weird!" However, it is unlikely to be the yellow scarf on the Xihua side, in addition to the main road we are traveling on, there is a small road on the north and south sides of Xihua, but it is rugged and difficult, how can 10,000 elite riders walk? What's more, if you have to avoid the detection of my and Gongwei's sentinels, if it is not for the help of gods and men, it will never be possible! ”

It's a pity that Huangfu Song's explanation made Wang Xu feel even more headache. 10,000 elite horsemen is not a small combat force, so how did they suddenly appear behind the army?

Just when everyone was confused, a general galloped quickly in the distance, and shouted loudly from afar: "General Huangfu, please send reinforcements quickly, my army is in danger!" ”

"Huh? Why did Meng De say this? ”

At the same time that Huangfu Song called out the person's name, Cao Cao had already rushed to the generals. He hurriedly bowed his hand to everyone, and didn't care about greeting him, so he immediately spoke: "I just received the general's message, I thought about it for a while, and then I realized that this matter must not be taken lightly. ”

After speaking, he didn't wait for everyone to ask, so he hurriedly explained: "The generals also know that it is impossible for the Xihua Yellow Turban to detour behind me. However, the Yingchuan Yellow Turban has been flattened, and if the Yellow Turban from other places comes from a long journey, we will definitely be able to get information about the prefectures and counties along the way. But so far nothing has been found, which means that neither is possible! And ......"

"And the only possibility is the yellow scarf that fled north under our noses in the first battle of Changshe!"

When Wang Xu took the words, his eyelids were already jumping. At first, he really didn't think of going up here, but Cao Cao reminded him like this, and after thinking about it, the only thing that could achieve this kind of surprise attack was the troops led by the young son of Zhang Jiao.

At the beginning, he probably only separated half of his people to flee north to attract Huangfu Song's attention. And he took the other half of the people to chase and kill Bocai on Huangfu Song, and went south when he had no time to care. At that time, even if someone saw it along the way, they only thought it was a defeated army that was chasing and scattering, and Chen Guo and Runan would regard him as a gathered Yellow Turban army. Therefore, in the midst of this crack, this unit has unwittingly become a misunderstanding of intelligence. Coupled with the support of the Yellow Turbans in Runan and Chen Guo, it is not a big problem for them to lurk.

After Cao Cao and Wang Xu said this, the other generals immediately reacted, and the protector Sima Fu Xie immediately said angrily: "What a thief, he actually used this golden silkworm to get out of his shell!" ”

Huangfu Song, who was the main general, did not see panic, his eyes narrowed, and a burst of cold light suddenly shot out. didn't wait for everyone to find out, but his face changed instantly, but he said urgently: "That yellow turban is extremely powerful, and there are many fierce generals in the army, and even Sun Wentai was injured that day. It took a lot of effort for me to lead the army to reinforcements to defeat them, I'm afraid Zhao Xuan and Gai Sheng are not their opponents! ”

As he spoke, Huangfu Song's eyes slowly swept over the generals around him, but in the end, he shook his head and sighed deeply!

"Fu Xie and I will take three thousand iron horsemen to reinforce again!" At this moment, Tun Cavalry Captain Bao Hong stood up.

Seeing this, Yuan Shao, who had been standing by the side silently, also opened his mouth and echoed: "I think it's okay, Bao Hong and Fu Xie both have courage and strategy, and they are enough to take on this responsibility!" ”

And as soon as he opened his mouth, Yuan Shu couldn't stand still, and immediately took over and said: "The combat effectiveness of that group of Yellow Turban thieves, everyone saw it that night, several thieves are also brave and abnormal, and the command is quite orderly, I think it's better to bring more soldiers and horses, don't touch it!" ”
