Chapter 445 Fighting Cao Cao

"Lord Assassin, this order was issued in the name of the imperial court. As Han ministers, we naturally have to obey it. However, for the sake of the interests of Xuzhou, it is up to us to decide whether to really participate in the war or not." Liu Bei sorted out his thoughts a little and then said to Tao Qian.

"Uncle Liu also said what I was worried about. In this way, I will allocate 10,000 soldiers and horses to my uncle. Uncle can lead these soldiers and horses to go on an expedition, and all uncles can do it cheaply." Lv Bu's move made Tao Qian very difficult, but now that Lv Bu is here, Tao Qian naturally did not hesitate to leave all this to Liu Bei.

"I will definitely live up to the trust of the adults." Seeing that Tao Qian let himself send troops, Liu Bei quickly saluted and said respectfully.

On this side, Liu Bei sent troops and marched slowly. On the other side, Lv Bu returned to Yanzhou and quickly summoned the generals to discuss the strategy against the enemy.

Chen Gong first came forward and said, "Now that Cao's army has won and is eager to fight, it must want to take Yanzhou as soon as possible. Our army is not as good as fake news. It is to say that the general was previously burned by the fire and can't fight. The Cao's army will definitely march forward. Our army will set up an ambush on the road, and it will definitely capture Cao Cao in one stroke."

"The last time I ambushed Cao Jun, I didn't want to be taken advantage of by Cao Cao, but this time I can't let Cao Cao escape." Lv Bu also felt that Chen Gong's plan was good, so he agreed and ordered the generals to lead the troops out.

On the second day after Lv Bujun arranged the ambush on the roadside, he saw dozens of riders coming. These soldiers were dressed in Cao Jun's clothes and well-equipped. At a glance, Lv Bu understood that these dozens of riders were not others but Cao Jun's scouts to explore the way.

"The scouts of General Cao Jun have arrived. I think Cao Jun is not far away. Do you want me to intercept these scouts?" Seeing the ward of Cao's army arrive, Dian Wei took a step forward and asked Lv Bu.

"I'm afraid it will make a lot of noise if you go. You'd better let Cao go." Looking at the expectant look in front of him, Lv Bu said without saying anything after a little meditation.

"Well? General, don't worry, I will be careful. I will definitely not make any noise to disturb Cao Jun. Seeing that Lv Bu was obviously suspicious of himself, Dian Wei patted his chest and assured Lv Bu.

"So, you can go." Seeing that Dian Wei looked very confident, Lv Bu nodded.

Seeing that Dian Wei also brought a few people and horses, he sneaked into the woods on the side of the road. Just as the Cao army was scouting the road passing by the forest, he only heard a whistle of Dian Wei. Several tripping horses were pulled up at the same time, and a group of Cao's war horses were tripped and tripped. At the same time, a soldier gushed out on both sides of the road. Under the pressure, many Cao Junshi have been controlled in their hands just a few breaths. Even some Cao Jun's scouts fell from the horse and were already caught. At this time, they had been caught before they could react.

However, there were also strong people among these scouts. Although one of them fell from the horse, the man rolled on the ground and came to the side of the road. He quickly untied the long bow from his back and pulled out an arrow. Unexpectedly, he wanted to release an arrow to warn. At this time, a short halberd flew out of the oblique thorn, but it just hit the chest of the Cao Jun. With a "poof", Cao Jun's body suddenly stagnated. He looked at the halberd on his chest with an incredible face and fell to the ground. At this time, a big man came out of the forest. The big man came to the dead Cao Jun and pulled out the short halberd behind him. This man was not someone else but led the army. Dian Wei, who has to deal with these scouts.

"Clean up here immediately." With Dian Wei's order, a group of soldiers quickly took all the captured Cao soldiers in custody, while the other soldiers carried away the bodies of the Cao soldiers who had just been killed by Dian Wei as quickly as possible and covered the blood on the ground with soil. At this time, after Dian Wei saw that there was nothing worth noting. Then he turned around and left.

Not long after Dian Wei left, a black flag slowly appeared on the south side of the road. The flag fluttered in the wind, and the character Cao was written vigorously in the middle. It was Cao Cao's army that arrived.

"Cao Gong, if we hurry like this, will Lv Bu ambush our army on the road?" Behind Cao Cao, Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao, who was looking at the distance with a calm face, and reminded him. Although Guo Jia also knows that the situation is urgent, it is obviously not a wise move to march so rashly.

"Ha ha, the military division is too worried. The scout reported that although Lv Bu narrowly escaped his life in the last war, he had been burned by the fire and could not participate in the war. In this way, our army is in the hands of victory. Seeing that Guo Jia was worried, Xia Houyuan, who was beside him, said. Although Xia Houyuan also thinks that Guo Jia is a good military division, Xia Houyuan still thinks that Guo Jia is a little too timid. How can he take on the responsibility of a military division?

"I have sent a large number of scouts, and I can know the situation within 50 miles. You don't have to worry about this. Moreover, although our current marching speed is a little difficult for the marching army, it is very easy for the cavalry. The plain is guarded by cavalry, and we are not afraid of the sudden attack of Lv Bu's army. When it comes to the siege, I will naturally let the marching army rest. Cao Cao knew that Guo Jia was also kind-hearted, so he explained to Guo Jia. In fact, I prefer to fight with Lv Bu in this plain. The loss of the siege must be too huge. It's not a wise move.

Hearing Cao Cao's words, Guo Jia understood that Cao Cao did this with the intention of attracting Lv Bujun and taking the initiative to leave the city to attack Cao Jun, but now Lv Bu is seriously injured and doesn't know if he will bring troops.

"Cao Cao, I, Lu Bu, have been waiting here for a long time." At this time, on the hill beside the road, a figure wearing golden armor, wearing a fiery red cloak, sat down and riding a red rabbit horse, which was reflected in the eyes of everyone. This person was here to ambush Lv Bu of Cao's army. Fang Tianhua halberd in Lv Bu's hand pointed to Cao Jun, and countless arrows on both sides of the pipe swept towards Cao Jun, who was marching like raindrops.

"No, there is an ambush, Mr. Cao, I'll protect you and go first." Seeing the sudden appearance of the ambush of Lv Bu's army, Xia Houyuan was immediately shocked. He didn't have time to command the soldiers and horses to fight against the enemy. He quickly stood in front of Cao Cao and protected Cao Cao and retreated back.

"Did Lv Bu appear?" Looking at Lv Bu and the Lv Bu soldiers ambushed on both sides of the road, Cao Cao did not panic after the ambush. He just calmly looked at Lv Bu's hill and let the soldiers around him surround him and leave.

"Spear the order and fight against the enemy." After half a sound, Cao Cao said something faintly, and then retreated to the rear of the army under the leadership of Xia Houyuan.

At this time, Yu Ban and other generals who received the order quickly stopped the people and horses from starting to array. Just by arraying under the arrow rain of Lv Bu's army, it was doomed that the loss of Cao's army must be huge.

"Hey hey, if you want to form a formation at this time, don't you feel a little late?" Seeing Cao Jun brave the arrow rain, Lv Bu's face showed a trace of sarcasm and said. Then he waved his hand, and tens of thousands of soldiers on both sides of the pipeline rushed out and ran to kill the Cao army who was in battle.

"Stabilize and kill me." Seeing Lv Bu's army pressing up, Yu Jin shouted hoarsely and took his own soldiers to urge the Cao soldiers who had just formed to stabilize their formation, but the Cao's army was suddenly attacked by Lv Bu's army during the march. Even if these soldiers were usually well trained, but at this time, they were tired for a few days. It will be the opponent of Lv Bu's army, who is waiting for work. Just a defensive formation that has been established by the forbidden hard work has been scattered by the Lv Bu army. Even Yu Ban himself was swept back by the flow of people. Yu Ban originally wanted to kill several scattered soldiers to suppress the scene. Just looking at the tired bodies of these soldiers in front of him, even if they are forced to stay, I'm afraid they can't exert much combat power, so they can only lament with the collapse of the army.

"Ming Gong, let the cavalry go to war. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid our march will completely disperse." Cao Cao took Guo Jia and just stabilized on a hill under the protection of Xia Houyuan. He saw that a large number of troops had begun to retreat under the offensive of Lv Bu's army, so Guo Jia hurriedly said to Cao Cao.

"The cavalry of Lv Bu's army hasn't appeared yet. If we send cavalry now, I'm afraid we will lose this battle." Although Cao Cao also saw that Lv Bu's army was chasing and killing his troops, Cao Cao was obviously more calmer and was not touched by the current situation of the war.

"This?" Guo Jia naturally knew that Cao Cao was right, but looking at Cao's army being killed by Lv Bu's army, Guo Jia still couldn't bear to say, "Do they let Lv Bu's army cut down?"

"War is cruel in the first place. What's more, if these people knew that I was removed from their official positions, would they still follow me?" Unlike Guo Jia, who considered the lives of these Cao's infantry, Cao Cao's consideration at this time was how useful and valuable these soldiers were to him.

"Your Excellency, Cao's formation has been in chaos. Shall we send cavalry to give the last blow?" Looking at the defeat of Cao's army in front of him, which had been chased by Lv Bu's army, Dian Wei came to Lv Bu and asked.

At this time, although the battlefield has been killed fiercely, after the hills at Lv Bu's feet, the elite cavalry of 20,000 Lv Bu's army waited quietly without making a sound, including Lv Bu's 5,000 wolf riders.

"Wait a minute, Cao's cavalry did not appear. Since Cao Cao can watch his people and horses killed by our army and be indifferent, why should we feel sorry for Cao Cao? After countless bloody storms, Lv Bu can also look at death more calmly at this time. Since these people are their own enemies, they can only be conquered with blood and fire.
