Chapter 107

On the edge of the Xiangjiang River, an extremely fierce battle is being staged. Screams, shouts, and shouts filled almost all the space within dozens of miles. Guan Yu marched with 80,000 steps and cooperated with 20,000 troops to encircle and suppress Xu Huang, a partial division of less than 40,000.

When Guan Yu marched, he found that Xu Huang's lonely army went deep into the new city to attack a little aggressively. At present, he led a group of people and prepared to swallow this lonely army first, but handed over the army to Zhang Liao and Li Yan under the command. Now that we meet on the narrow road, Xu Huang has fallen behind in both the total number of troops and the number of cavalry. If you really want to fight, even if Xu Huang is determined to fight to the death, the ending is more or less auspicious.

"Kill me!" In the army, Xu shook his hand and waved a big axe first. Wherever the axe went, many enemy troops were cut down by him. Inspired by Xu Huang, Cao Jun, who was in a desperate situation, also fought hard. The Jingzhou army that surrounded them could not do it for a while.

"Dang!" With a loud noise, Xu Huang felt that his axe was blocked by a man, but this time he failed to kill the other party. At this moment, the wind swayed behind him, and a long gun pierced his back heart.

"Hey!" Xu Huang crossed the axe, swept it, and blocked all the blades that came before and after. What a great energy!" In addition to Chen Wu and Dong Xi's sword, his arms were sore and numb. At this time, Chen Wu blocked it head-on, and Dong attacked behind his back, but it was easily cracked by Xu Huang.

"Let's go together!" Both of them knew that they were far from Xu Huang's opponents when they fought alone, so they went together. Not only them, but also Zhou Tai, who was beside them, also intervened. The three of them surrounded Xu Huang at the core, and the three blades were inseparable from Xu Huang's key points. Xu Huangning took the move intently and prepared that which of the three of the three had flaws would be solved immediately.

It's not that Xu Huang doesn't want to escape, but he knows in his heart that most of his subordinates are pawns now. It's a little unrealistic to escape directly if he wants to escape. Didn't he see those leisurely cavalry beside Guan Yu? Xu Huang was sure that once he withdrew his troops rashly, it would be a dead end. I can only fight with the other party first, and then see if there is a turning point.

"Your Highness, Xu Huang's troops are really powerful. He has fallen into a desperate situation, and he can still resist stubbornly!" Looking at Xu Huang, who was surrounded by the core, who was still brave, Cao Jun was also fighting with blood under his encouragement, and Zhuge Jin, who came with the army, also sighed. Although the number of Jingzhou troops on the field is more than double, it is difficult to crush the other party for a while, and the authentic power is invincible.

"However, it's almost over!" Guan Yu sighed softly, and then ordered the Fengyun cavalry to join the regiment. With the help of the cavalry, Cao's army, which was originally in danger, was soon completely crushed. Xu Huang shouted for a fierce battle, but he was surrounded by Zhou Tai and other three people, but it was difficult to get out for a moment, let alone command the army.

"Hey!" He tried his best to set up the blades of the three people with an axe. When Xu Huang found that all the enemy troops had been involved in the battle, he quickly gritted his teeth and shouted, "Withdraw!" Then he went to the north first. He has been fighting to the death, because once he retreats rashly, he will inevitably be surrounded and annihilated by Guan Yu's cavalry. Now that the opponent's cavalry has fallen into the quagmire of positional warfare, he can retreat calmly. Jingshan Mountain is only a few dozen miles to the north. After retreating to the mountain, the other party's cavalry is unable to chase like this. They can slowly follow the mountain road to Nanxiang to meet the Cao army there. As for Fancheng, if he tried his best to guard Fancheng from the beginning and didn't mobilize most of his people to attack the new city, he might be safe. Now, I really can't keep it.

"It's a pity that Xu Huang ran away!" Zhuge Jin said with regret. Under Xu Huang's desperate killing, thousands of remnants of soldiers left the main battlefield with him and retreated all the way to Jingshan. The wind and cloud cavalry were all trapped in the battle and could not pursue for a while.

"He can't run away!" Guan Yu looked at Xu Huang with only thousands of people around him, but he was full of confidence. Zhuge Jin and Xu Huang didn't know that on Jingshan Mountain, Shamoke's 10,000 flying army was waiting for these thousands of people. With the strength of the mountain battle of the flying army, isn't it enough to deal with these thousands of remnants who are like frightened birds?

With Xu Huang's retreat, the enemy in the field immediately lost most of his fighting spirit. Except for some loyal people, the rest are abandoning their weapons and surrendering. Nearly 40,000 Cao troops were count after the war. Except for more than 4,000 people who followed Xu Huang to escape for the time being, the remaining 30,000 people were annihilated, and more than 11,000 people were either captured or surrendered. In addition, the 10,000 defenders in Fancheng have also been solved. In a word, Xu Huang, a division of 50,000 people, has been completely solved.

Next time, news came from Samoke that after Xu Huang's remnants of the soldiers estoed into Jingshan Mountain, they were ambushed by the Wudang Flying Army. Thousands of people were almost completely annihilated, and more than a thousand people were captured and escorted to Xiangyang. Xu Huang himself was captured after falling into the trap, and was also escorted with the prisoners. Guan Yu was overjoyed when he heard the words and asked Xu Huang to be imprisoned in Xiangyang Prison first. When I destroy Cao Hong, I will persuade him to surrender.

At this time, Cao Hong, who was in Nanyang, was already as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Xu Huang was annihilated, and Zhang Liaobing entered Yanzhou. These two news were like two stuffy sticks, which caught Cao Hong off guard. At the same time, the back road was cut off, and Bingzhou and Youzhou were sent by Liu Bei to take advantage of the situation. These two news made Cao Hong feel like he had received two stuffy sticks in a row, and he almost couldn't react. Now that Xu Huangbing is defeated and doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, Cao Hong simply has a feeling that he has nowhere to start. By this time, he had fully understood that the reason why he was so smooth was that he went to Nanyang and Yanzhou for more than ten days. I'm afraid that Guan Yu deliberately gave it to him, in order to induce him to go south. Although the main force has not gone south, it is obvious that the defense of Hebei is empty. As a result, now Youzhou and Bingzhou have asked people to copy the back road.

After reluctantly calming down, Cao Hong still said astringently, "Now that Hebei has been attacked, we still follow your majesty's suggestion to turn the army into zero, cross the Yellow River, and then gather again in the land of Hebei to recover Bingzhou and Youzhou."

"This plan is very good, but what should we do in Yanzhou and Nanyang now?" Cheng Yu frowned and asked. Now the situation in Hebei is critical, but the hard-earned territory in Henan can't be said to say no. Cao Hong thought for a while, but finally put his eyes on Zhang's body.

"Yan Yi, it's up to you to stay in Wancheng; on the other side of Xuchang, there is Bo Ren stationed." Cao Hong arranged, and Zhang Yi's face suddenly turned black when he heard the words: Staying in Henan, this does not seem to be a promising task.

"In the past, it was said that Zhang Xiu could still divide one side in Wancheng. Now Yanyi stays in Wancheng, cooperates with Hongnong and the garrison in Henan, and the Boren of Xuchang, which can keep the foundation of Henan. When I return to the army to relieve the siege of Hebei, I will lead the army to the south!" Cao Hong tried his best to comfort him. Zhang Zhi nodded silently when he heard the words, and he couldn't help but refuse at this time. At present, Cao Hong announced that Zhang Yi led 20,000 troops to stay in Wancheng, and Xia Houshang led 30,000 troops to stay in Xuchang. He and Cao Zhang scattered all the rest of the people. With a hundred people as a unit, they searched for ships everywhere in the Yellow River and gathered after crossing the river.

"Your Majesty, the king of Xiangyang came to report that Xu Huang's man and horse have been annihilated on the shore of sweat. Now Cao Hong's army stranded in Henan has been withdrawn from the north one after another, leaving only Zhang Yi and Xia Hou Shang and others, leading the army to stay in Wancheng and Xuchang. Above Tongguan, the general Wang Ping reported to Liu Bei, the Zhaolie emperor who had just arrived here.

"Ha ha, with Xia Hou Shang and Zhang Yi, do you also want to defend the land of Henan? After the order went down, the army immediately waved its army to the east and cooperated with Yun Chang to level up Cao's army in Henan. In addition, tell Xingba to try to stop Cao's army from crossing the river. In addition, inform the defenders of Yangzhou that they can take action!" Liu Bei was in a good mood and finished arranging these in one breath, and then he still stopped.

"Kong Ming, now Cao Hong has been turned around by your tricks. It seems that Cao Wei's country will be won by me this year. You have made great contributions in this battle!" After a little excitement, Liu Bei also said good words to Zhuge Liang, who repeatedly said that he was not right. Just as the emperors and ministers praised each other, Chen Cangshou sent Hao Zhao to send an emergency military situation.

"Oh? Sima Yi's soldiers went out of Chen Cangdao and prepared to march into Guanzhong? Liu Bei was a little surprised. With the strength of Sima Yi today, it is really surprising that he dares to continue to be arrogant with himself.

"Sima Yi also had no choice but to do it. If he sits and waits for us to destroy Cao Wei and clean up the man, he will not be captured, so he will take the initiative to attack and respond to Cao Wei." Zhuge Liang was not very unexpected.

"Sima Yi is very gloomy. Since he leads the army to attack, he still needs to be careful!" The big Sinong Mizhu, who followed the army, was also cautious. Liu Bei said indifferently, "There are only tens of thousands of horses under Sima Yi's command. Except for Lu Boyan and Zhang Shusi, who are left behind in the Han Dynasty, the rest will never be able to mobilize more than 30,000. Chen Cang and Hao Zhao had 10,000 defenders, and there were defenders everywhere in Tianshui to respond. Sima Yi's advance this time was bound to return without success. If we hadn't been busy cleaning up Cao Pi, we would have annihilated him in one fell swoop.

"Except it is!" Zhuge Liang said with a smile. Seeing that both of them were so confident, Mi Zhu was also relieved. As they expected, under the city of Chencang at this time, Sima Yi was blocked by Hao Zhao and could not make a step forward.

"Hing Zhao, you are cruel enough!" Looking at the bodies piled up under Chen Cangcheng and almost reached the top of the city, Sima Yi also gritted his teeth and cursed. I thought Hao Zhao was a soft persimmon, but I didn't expect that I would kick the iron plate again.

"Lord, why do we want to enter Guanzhong at this time?" Wang Shuang and Sima Yi, who were beside him, had an attack, and then asked carefully.

"If you don't enter Guanzhong and only rely on the land of Hanzhong, how can you gain a foothold?" Sima Yi was a little helpless. By this time, he had a faint hunch in his heart that his dream of dominating the world would be completely shattered. At this moment, an emergency military situation was sent to Sima Yi, who opened it and frowned more deeply.
