The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

Chapter 269

Outside Wuhuan City, Huang Xu led Baiqi to charge and shoot no less than ten times in Cao Zhen's army, directly killing most of the enemies.

But at this time, Cao Chun, who had escaped, came here at some point.

However, seeing Wuhuan City where the suspension bridge had been put down, his expression became more solemn.

I thought that the opening of the city gate was the only hope for me to survive, but who would have thought that I would encounter a group of evil stars like Huang Xu again.

Not only cut the rope of the suspension bridge god, but also all the soldiers who came out to support were slaughtered by the evil star.

At this moment, Cao Chun and Cao Zhen, with only three or four hundred people left, felt deeply hopeless.

Speaking of which, this was the first time the two fought side by side since the estrangement began by the river, and Cao Zhenxin was full of resentment.

If Cao Chun could have followed his advice earlier and the armies of the two sides had watched over each other, I am afraid that the [-] troops would not have ended up today.

Not to mention, at least in the first confrontation with Huang Xu, he won't lose so badly.

"I said nephew, it seems that we can't escape now."

Cao Chun sat straddling the horse, panting heavily, looking very tired, and even the long sword in his hand might faintly fall.

But the most exhausted was the war horse under him, even if it was just standing, its limbs were trembling slightly.

"Okay, just say a few words less!"

Cao Zhen was so angry when he heard what he said, how can he not know what's going on right now?

But... Looking at the fragmented soldiers who came out of the city gate to support but were killed in an instant, he really didn't know how to answer them.

Now, no matter how stupid he is, he can still see that the plan to injure Huang Xu and others is a joke at first.

Right now, on the contrary, Huang Xu has killed all his troops.

It was obvious that Wuhuan City was close at hand, although there were not many cavalry in the city, there were thousands of them at least, but none of them could walk in front of him.

Huang Xu is really ruthless.

Surround yourself and Cao Chun without killing, just to attract the soldiers in the city to come out.

How dare the defenders in the city neglect the orders of the two generals?

But if they want to save people, they have to sacrifice the lives of a large number of soldiers.

I don't know who made this kind of treacherous style of play.

He didn't think too badly, this strategy of encircling the spot and attacking for help was specially prepared by Xi Yu for those black and white cavalry who are good at long-distance attack.

"Damn it, there's no way out!"

Cao Zhen, who couldn't find a way out the more he thought about it, sighed deeply, and he was almost exhausted at the moment.

Seeing Cao Zhen who was no better than himself, Cao Chun's complexion became more and more ugly.

He looked into the distance, and then said softly: "Actually...we still have hope, look to the east."

"East?"

Cao Zhen turned his head when he heard the words, but was stunned when he saw a narrow path that could become a road. It seems that this path can only pass one person at a time!

"You... what do you mean by this?"

"You escape!"

Cao Chun said indifferently: "Although I am a generation older than you, I am not as good as you in terms of military qualities and talents. You are the future of my Cao army. In the future, the responsibility of the clan general will definitely fall on you!"

"So... you quickly take off your armor!"

"Taking off the battle armor? Me? Why is this...?"

Cao Zhen was a little confused, he couldn't figure out what the other party was thinking at the moment.

"If I tell you to fade away, you will fade away. What nonsense is that? Hurry up!"

Seeing that he was still hesitating, Cao Chun couldn't control his emotions any longer, and growled, "I have no strength left to escape, and you still have a little strength left. Although this move is dangerous, it is your only chance to escape." !"

"What will happen in the future depends on your own good fortune!"

Cao Zhen trembled in shock from this sentence, but he also understood the other party's intention.

"what do you mean--"

"Okay, hurry up, it's better than everyone dying!"

Cao Chun said lightly, his eyes were full of grief and indignation.

Seeing this, Cao Zhen no longer hesitated, immediately dropped his weapon, took off his battle armor, and got off his horse when everyone was not paying attention.

"Grab some more dirt, cover your face, then roll around on the ground, and then leave with the defecting soldiers!"

The location where the two of them are now is just covered by the dense mountain, so no one noticed when they were doing these actions.

After a few more brief conversations, they made an escape plan.

After a while, shouts came from the side of the mountain forest. The two seemed to have a dispute over something, and then the soldiers on both sides also fought endlessly.

"Hey, this is the beginning of internal fighting?"

Huang Xu, who was not far away, watched all this with amusement in his eyes.

His white cavalry has not lost a lot of people recently, and the overall number is still above a thousand, but it has gained the upper hand on the battlefield and stole the limelight.

Now seeing the infighting within the enemy who is like a turtle in a urn, it really makes him very happy to watch.

but······
At such a critical juncture, why did they cause such confusion?
"There is a problem!"

"It's not hard to guess."

Seeing Huang Xu's curiosity, Wang Long took the initiative to step forward and said: "When I inquired about the news earlier, I learned that when Cao Zhen and Cao Chun camped near Jinghe, they never dealt with each other."

"At that time, Cao Zhen sent someone to tell Cao Chun that if he wanted the two armies to get closer together, the two sides had better work together to strengthen the defense system to prevent our sneak attack, but who would have thought that Cao Chun would not listen and send Cao Zhen's The person who sent the message was beaten up."

"Oh? And this one?"

Huang Xu, who had some doubts at first, immediately smiled when he heard the words, and he was in a good mood.

Although the life and death of these people are already in his hands, at such a critical juncture, he is naturally happy to see the enemy fighting among themselves.

"Since it's an internal fight, let's not rush forward, just rest here for a while and watch the show by the way."

"However, you must always be on the lookout for movements in Wuhuan City. We have already dealt with some of their soldiers. If anyone comes out again, attack the city decisively!"

"promise!"

······
Wrapped in a layer of mud and put on a soldier's battle armor, Cao Zhen, who made himself unkempt, is really no different from an ordinary soldier.

At this moment, I am afraid that Cao Zhen's mother may not recognize his own son when he comes.

After all, his son is a majestic general, so why was he so embarrassed that he was abused like this?

yes ill!
Because behind him, Cao Chunzheng was riding a tall horse, waving his whip at him constantly.

The two sides are clearly in the same camp, but are chased by the other side and hide in hiding. This kind of scene is really heartbreaking to watch.

Of course, only the guards stationed inside the guards in Wuhuan City felt this way.

Seeing this scene, a guarding soldier who was anxious couldn't help but said: "Look, general, there must be a rebellion in the army outside the city. If we don't send troops again, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the soldiers! "

"Do you need to say that? This general knows, everyone, please go out with me, at least bring those two generals back!"

"promise!"

Although there are white riders waiting for him, no matter if they are sincere or not, they can't really stand on the sidelines and ignore it.

After all, the two generals in the mountain forest were both from the Cao family clan.

And the current Cao Wei has already become a principality with Yecheng as its capital. If they refuse to save their clansmen and generals, they will be severely punished in the future, and it is not impossible to die. , Maybe even the family will be involved.

Therefore, even if they risked being slaughtered by the white knights, they could only bite the bullet and rush forward.

"The shield soldiers quickly stepped forward to resist the white cavalry, and the others followed me to rescue the general. Brothers, go!"

The young city defender had just finished speaking when he was pierced through his armor by several sudden cold arrows, causing blood to splatter everywhere.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Then three more arrows pierced his heart, forehead and neck respectively.

The young general, who still had some confusion in his eyes, just fell heavily from his horse and lost his breath.

Huang Xu led another wave of white riders, galloping from a slope.

The white cavalry that was blocked between Cao Zhen and Wuhuan City before was only half of his thousands.

Long before Cao Zhen came, he split the white rider into two, and the rest of the white riders behind him were waiting for this moment.

Because some of the city defenders had been beheaded before, once these city defenders rushed out now, I am afraid that the defenders in Wuhuan City would be depleted.

Huang Xu chose to rush out at this time, just to take down Wuhuan City!

Soon, he took the lead in occupying the drawbridge.

Finally, it's time to start the attack!
As the city guards came out in full force, he raised the corner of his mouth again.

"Kill! Take Wuhuan City!"

With an order, the white cavalry who flowed from the hillside like a torrent of steel resolutely ignored the defenders and walked into the city instead.

To put it bluntly, it was Wu Huancheng's idea that he had planned from the very beginning.

As for Cao Chun and Cao Zhen, they were just bait for him to lure the snake out of the hole.

Wuhuan City is an important pass. Although there are no roads to the left and right, there are quite a few cities guarded front and back.

As long as you enter the city, relying on the terrain here, the army only needs to take care of the enemy troops coming to support on the front and rear roads, and there is no need to worry about the left and right.

Also, since this place is a city, there must be people there. In this way, military supplies, food and grass, and equipment for defending the city must be readily available.

There are at least a thousand people under my command, and it happens that the soldiers are divided into two groups, one in front and the other in the rear. As long as they can defend for seven days, the battle on the front line is almost over.

With the foster father's ability, this battle will definitely be won, and at that time, he will lead the white rider and retreat completely.

"This...General, this is an isolated city!"

As the No. [-] Baiqi, Wang Long naturally has some insights into the battle situation, but he naturally knows what it means to enter the city.
He didn't understand why Huang Xu insisted on going his own way in such a clear situation.

If you go in like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out again.

"Once we go in, we will be surrounded by enemy troops—"

"Enter!"

Huang Xu took this issue seriously at all, waved his hand decisively, and rushed towards the suspension bridge first, and then fired wildly with a continuous crossbow, killing all the surrounding soldiers in a short while.

The few white riders who followed ran to the edge of the suspension bridge, re-bundled and strengthened the ropes that had been cut off earlier, and put away the suspension bridge after all the white riders entered the city.

The whole process didn't take a cup of tea, and Cao Chun and Cao Zhen in the distance were stunned.

They really can't turn their heads now.

The two put in so much effort to put on such a big scene, just to get Cao Zhen out of Huang Xu's hands safely.

After all, in terms of Cao Zhen's military ability, as long as he returns to the camp behind Jizhou, he will definitely lead the army to fight again.

Therefore, in order to act more realistically, Cao Chun really whipped Cao Zhen, and even slapped Cao Zhen on the face several times in order to prevent him from being recognized by the enemy.

But both of them have acted to this extent, but the other party...let him go?

what does it mean?This is?
"Hiss! Uncle, you are really ruthless, tell me what kind of enmity we have?"

Before Cao Zhen could react, the burning pain on his face awakened his consciousness, and his heart suddenly burst into anger.

Cao Chun blinked, carefully hid the whip behind his back, and said with a sneer, "No, this... my nephew, this was just an accident. I wanted you to go back alive!"

"Do you want me to go back? Are you afraid that my life is not miserable enough?"

Cao Zhen's handsome face flushed with anger.

Oh no!
Right now his face was covered with mud, blood and swollen welts.

The little bit of admiration towards Cao Chun just now disappeared like smoke in an instant.

Damn, he didn't even think about killing himself, it was all because Cao Chun was overthinking, and I got beaten for nothing!

But... let's talk about it.

This Huang Xu has been chasing him all the way, how could he let him go all of a sudden?
Could it be that... his goal from beginning to end was not the [-] army at all, but the Wuhuan City?

"Now that Wuhuan City has been captured by them, and even put away the drawbridge, it's just a dream if we want to attack with the current manpower!"

"Should we go back? Go to Quanzhou and see if we can meet the army. If we meet, then report to General Yuan Rang and let him lead the people to come!"

Cao Zhen's face was ashen, his heart was full of sorrow, but he couldn't say anything.

The swollen welts on his face made him feel like a monkey surrounded by crowds. He was beaten badly for no reason, but he could only smash his teeth and swallow it. No one could say anything, and no one dared to say anything.

Right now, he really felt extremely uncomfortable all over his body.

Nonsense, I rolled on the ground several times, not to mention being covered in mud, and I was beaten violently, and I didn’t feel very comfortable. If he can hold back from swearing, he is already rational, and he doesn’t have the mind to fight again. ?

As for Cao Chun, he is still a little hypocritical now.

He didn't have much strength before, in order to let Cao Zhen escape, he froze when he swung his whip just now, and now he was completely exhausted.

Most importantly, looking at Cao Zhen's multifaceted face, he felt really uneasy.

Under such circumstances, it is natural that Cao Zhen listens to what he says.

Furthermore, the man Huang Xu has already entered the city, and it is not known what kind of defense it is inside. With this little manpower in hand, I am afraid it is not enough for the opponent's teeth.

"Hey! This is the only way to go now. We will definitely not be able to attack Wuhuan City. The entire 1000 army has been crippled by Huang Xu, let alone now, there are still more than [-] white cavalry. Judging from the casualties of both sides, We have lost a lot!"

"It's okay to go back. We might meet other armies on the way. Let's integrate with them and go back to the front line. It's also a good choice. After all, Huang Xu is nothing. If Xi Yu breaks the front line defense, We're really done."

"Let's go, everyone, to prevent the entire Hejian County from falling into Xi Yu's hands, let's go back!"

After the two finished talking, they ordered the deputy general to go to gather troops, and then the two armies merged into one, plus some surviving soldiers from the original Wuhuan City, a total of less than 500 people turned around and started to return the same way.

As long as he can keep up with the large troops on the front line, he will be able to find Xia Houchun, and then he may have a chance to report Huang Xu's humiliation today!

pity······
When they saw the army, a sense of fear penetrated into their hearts.

A mighty tens of thousands of people, dressed in heavy armor, armed with spears, and riding on horses, were chasing Xia Houchun in his direction like desperately.

Xi Yu's tens of thousands of troops were fully armed and came galloping on horses, and the neighing of the horses echoed in their ears.

Xia Houchun's army ran around like headless chickens without order.

After running for so long, they were not only physically tired, but also mentally tired after fighting in the corner for several days.

Seeing the fear in everyone's eyes, Cao Chun and Cao Zhen realized that they really had no way out.

If you want to survive, it seems that the only way is to evacuate from both sides, which is not feasible.

It's just that in this way, I may not be able to escape the pursuit, not to mention, I'm afraid that the entire Hejian County will fall into Xi Yu's hands, which means that they have completely lost this battle!
Once Hejian County is lost, no matter how many troops, horses or even wealth they take, they can't make up for it. But in the end, seeing the murderous Xi Yu army, they still chose to disperse to both sides.

Just like the one-in-ten-thousandth luck they brought, Xi Yu ignored them, and instead led the army to run wildly all the way until the foot of Wuhuan City.

"Shut up!"

I saw him pull the rein heavily, followed the horse back, and stood half-standing in the air, then looked at the city gate, and cursed: "Where's that bastard Huang Xu? Why don't you put down the suspension bridge soon?"

As soon as he heard the foster father's voice, Huang Xu, who was still dozing off, was so frightened that he sat up, hurriedly asked someone to put down the suspension bridge, and then quickly walked down the city gate to meet him.

As the suspension bridge was slowly lowered, the white riders had already stood on both sides of the city gate, ready to go, and behind them were the kneeling people.

But looking at the joyful expressions of the common people, it seemed as if they had been waiting for Xi Yu for a long time.

Xi Yu didn't pay attention to this, he got off his horse and walked straight towards Huang Xu.

"Snapped!"

A heavy slap was slapped on Huang Xu's face, and Xi Yu glared at him with an attitude of hating iron but not steel.

"You bastard, are you immortal? How dare you go deep alone, who taught you this? If something happens to you on the battlefield, what do you want me to tell your father?"
