Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

"Hmph, the Han army really dares to underestimate me."

Cao Cao was so angry that he laughed and led the army out of the city himself.

Forced by circumstances, Liu Bei also led his troops out of the city to fight with Cao Cao.

Although Cao Cao has the blessing of 30,000 elites, Liu Bei also has 60,000 to 70,000 people.

After the two sides started fighting, Cao's army retreated steadily.

Cao Cao's face was a little solemn, this battle was a bit tricky.

"You lead the infantry to hold back the Han army, and at the same time lead the crossbowmen to cover." Cao Cao ordered.

After Xiahou Dun accepted the order, he immediately organized his infantry to block Liu Bei's attack.

After all, Xiahou Dun was a veteran general. Under Cao Cao's command, he could barely hold off Liu Bei, but the number of casualties was very huge.

Cao Hong and Xu Shu led the archers and crossbowmen to kill Liu Bei's army and help Xiahou Dun and others reduce the pressure.

When Liu Bei saw this, he cursed in his heart for being cunning.

Therefore, he immediately changed his tactics, ordered the army to stop attacking, and then let the army adopt a strategy of slowly advancing.

Xiahou Dun was relieved when he saw Liu Bei stop attacking, but Cao Hong was a little depressed. He wanted to gain more credit.

However, Cao Hong also knew that he needed to preserve his strength now.

Cao Cao also noticed that Liu Bei suddenly changed his tactics, and his face darkened: "It seems that Liu Bei is indeed a treacherous person, and he actually thought of delaying time."

"Lord, what should we do?" Dian Wei asked.

Cao Cao took a deep breath: "Continue to pursue, and be sure to capture Liu Bei's army for me, otherwise we really have no hope of capturing Nanyang County."

Hearing this, Dian Wei said nothing and began to lead his troops to charge.

When Liu Bei saw Cao Jun's fierce attack, his face was gloomy: "Ziyi, take the infantry to cut off the rear, and the rest of the soldiers will charge with me!"

"No!" Guan Yu responded and immediately led five hundred cavalry to break up the rear.

As soon as Cao Jun's cavalry charged, they were intercepted by Guan Yu's cavalry.

However, Guan Yu was not interested in fighting and left quickly with his cavalry.

Although Guan Yu's behavior was strange, it was in line with the art of war, so Dian Wei did not take care of Guan Yu's five hundred cavalry for the time being.

He continued the attack with his army.

Guan Yu lured Cao Jun from the front, making their attack even more difficult.

However, this stalemate did not last long before it was destroyed by Xia Houyuan.

Xiahou Yuan led the trapped camp to surprise Guan Yu, and cooperated with Xiahou Dun's infantry to disperse Guan Yu's 500 cavalry.

In the end, only Guan Yu and Ling Ling were left on the battlefield.

There was a bitter expression on Guan Yu's face. He didn't expect that he would die at the hands of Xia Houyuan in the end.

When this scene fell into the eyes of Cao Cao in the distance, he burst into laughter and shouted: "General Xiahou Yuan is brave, wait for me to charge in person!"

After speaking, Cao Cao rode out and rushed out.

Although Guan Yu is very confident in his martial arts, he has seen the elite trapped in the camp under Cao Cao, and he is definitely not weak.

But now he is weak and weak, and it is almost impossible to block Cao Cao's army.

Unless he uses tactics, such as using fire attacks.

It's a pity that his current situation can be described as a desperate situation. It is impossible to burn Cao Cao's army with fire.

So in the midst of the lightning and flint, Guan Yu also fell into deep thinking.

Suddenly his eyes lit up and he murmured: "Maybe I can try this trick!"

Guan Yu decided to give it a try. He took out a round object from his arms and weighed it in his hand.

"I don't know if the smoke bomb developed by Military Advisor Kong Ming is useful..."

A faint smile appeared on Guan Yu's lips, and he said softly: "I want to see how long you can last!"

Then he threw the smoke bomb in his hand around.

"Bang!" The smoke bomb exploded the moment it hit the ground, and thick smoke billowed, covering the entire battlefield in an instant.

"Cough cough!"

Thick smoke filled the air, causing many soldiers to choke.

"Asshole, put out the fire quickly!"

Cao Cao roared angrily. He felt that the thick fog contained poison.

Thick smoke filled the air, and Cao's soldiers had limited vision, making it impossible to put out the fire.

"kill!"

At this time, Liu Bei's army seized the opportunity and rushed forward and started a massacre.

In just a few moments, Cao Jun's soldiers suffered numerous casualties, and even Cao Cao was injured.

"Lord!" Dian Wei quickly supported Cao Cao and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Cao Cao shook his head: "It's okay, but that despicable guy Guan Yu actually used such methods."

Cao Cao wanted to eat Guan Yu alive.

"Don't worry, my lord, the general has sent soldiers to put out the fire, and the situation will be stabilized soon," Dian Wei said.

"Well, I can't blame anyone else for this. I just blame me for being too greedy and actually wanted to get rid of Liu Beijun at once." Cao Cao sighed: "If I can fight steadily and slowly erode away, I will definitely win today."

"Don't worry, my lord, victory will eventually belong to you!" Dian Wei consoled him.

"Ah."

Cao Cao nodded and immediately ordered: "Send the order and prepare to retreat."

"Lord, wait!"

At this moment, a school captain ran over and shouted hurriedly.

"What's the matter?" Cao Cao looked at the captain in confusion.

"Lord, our food and grass have been burned!" The captain's expression was complicated.

"What? The food and grass were burned?"

Cao Cao's eyes widened. Food and grass were very important to him. This was undoubtedly a huge blow to him.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao gritted his teeth and roared: "Liu Bei, you have gone too far to bully others. I swear we are not at odds with you!"

"Haha, what did I hear? You actually said that you want to be at odds with me, haha..."

At this time, Liu Bei slowly walked out of the thick smoke with 30,000 cavalry.

At this time, Cao Cao, Dian Wei and others were all disgraced.

After all, Guan Yu's strategy is really powerful.

"Liu Xuande, you dare to plot against my food and grass, I will kill you!" Cao Cao roared and went straight to Liu Bei.

He was extremely fast and arrived at Liu Bei's side in the blink of an eye, thrusting out his spear.

However, Liu Bei was already on guard. He pulled the white dragon pony under his crotch and dodged.

Liu Bei snorted coldly: "Cao Mengde, let's have a showdown today. Between you and me, we don't know who will win or who will lose!"

"Okay, I'll play with you!" Cao Cao snorted coldly and rushed towards Liu Bei waving his spear.

Although Cao Cao had 30,000 cavalry, Liu Bei was not afraid.

Because he believed that after Guan Yu's cavalry regrouped, they would never let Cao Cao take advantage.

Sure enough, when Guan Yu took a breather and then led the cavalry to charge forward again, Cao Cao was in trouble.

Although the trapped camp under his command was strong, they were retreating steadily under the impact of Guan Yu's cavalry.

"Kill!"

Guan Yu's cavalry took advantage of the situation to pursue and killed Cao's army with heavy losses.

"Lord, the enemy's cavalry is coming, let's retreat temporarily." Dian Wei advised. (End of chapter)
