There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

After twenty rounds, Huang Zhong found a flaw in Xia Houyuan, roared, and swept across with his knife, directly wounding Xia Houyuan's left arm.

Xia Houyuan screamed in pain, and the spear in his hand fell directly into the dust. He hastily reined in his horse and fled towards the rear.

Huang Zhong wasn't in a hurry, he just chased after Xia Houyuan unhurriedly.

At this time in the valley, Xu Chu and Ma Chao heard the voice outside and couldn't help being curious.

Xu Chu turned his head in doubt, and asked Ma Chao, "My dear brother, why are there such loud shouts of killing outside? Could it be that our reinforcements came to rescue us?"

Ma Chao shook his head and said, "I don't know much, logically it shouldn't be possible. When we came, the prime minister only said that you and I would be the vanguard, but didn't say that he would send troops to support us."

Xu Chu thought about it carefully, and said, "In this case, it means that this is a trick of the other party to lure us out! It must be Cao Jun's trick. Hehe, we must not be fooled."

Ma Chao narrowed his eyes, thought carefully for a while, then clapped his hands suddenly, and said, "Brother, this is definitely a trick Cao Jun set for us!"

Xu Chu snorted, and said: "Brother, I'm not bragging to you for my brother's sake. I have followed the prime minister and fought for many years. Over the years, I have seen so many conspiracies and tricks, and I have seen many more astonishing tricks than this. Already! This is a small scene today."

Ma Chao bowed his hands to Xu Chu: "Your brother is the best!"

Xu Chu laughed loudly and said, "That's natural!"

"Let's not go out, after we finish our performance later, let's go out and kill them by surprise!"

At the same time, outside the valley, the battle between the Cao army and the Jinling army has become more and more intense.

While fighting Cao Jun bravely, Ji Ling asked Zhang Yun beside him suspiciously: "General Zhang, why are General Xu and Ma Chao in the valley still not coming out? Didn't they hear the sound of fighting outside the valley?"

Zhang He smiled slightly, shook his head lightly, and said, "I'm not sure about this, but the two of them must have something in mind. Let's ignore them and obey the prime minister's order to defeat the enemy."

Ji Ling was puzzled, but continued to charge with Zhang He.

The potter's arrangement was extremely strict, and it was inevitable that he would win. He estimated that Cao Cao would preemptively attack his own front vanguard, and would use ruthless moves to defeat him for a while before defending Hanzhong.

Therefore, after discussing with Guo Jia, he decided to use Ma Chao and Xu Chu as the vanguard, and arranged for a large army to follow.

The current situation is proceeding according to the second route policy.

Cheng Yu and Xun You were also in the army, but they were protected by Cao Chun, a general of the Cao army.

The Jinling army was very powerful, and they completely suppressed Cao's army in a short time. From the perspective of Xun You and Cheng Yu, it was obvious that this matter would not be easy.

"Retreat to Yangping Pass!" Xun You made up his mind, and ordered Cao Jun's general Huang Shao to say, "Send people to inform the various ministries to quickly withdraw to Yangping Pass. If the delay is longer, there may be some problems."

Cheng Yu looked around anxiously and said, "There are so many soldiers in Jinling now, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to withdraw."

At this moment, there was a shout of killing from the southeast corner.

It was Yan Yan, the general of Shuzhong, and Guan Yu, Liu Bei's subordinate, who rushed over with their troops.

The two jointly killed a bloody road and opened up a way for Cao Jun to retreat.

When Xun You saw this situation, the stone in his heart just dropped.

Fortunately, our allies are not idiots, otherwise today's battle would be really difficult.

Guan Yu ran up to Xun You with his saber in hand, and said, "I am afraid that you may make mistakes ahead, so I am here to help you."

"Thank you, thank you!" Xun You cupped his hands towards Guan Yu, and said, "I also ask the general to help us lead our army to quickly retreat to Yangping Pass. The Tao army has been prepared for a long time. It seems that this battle is not easy to fight."

Chapter 9 Attacking Yangping Pass

Guan Yu also naturally saw the current situation, and did not refuse at the moment. While telling Xun You, Cheng Yu and others to evacuate quickly, he went to help those Cao generals with a knife.

Most of the Cao generals had already received Xun You's order, and began to lead their troops to retreat to the rear. Among them, Xia Houyuan's army was the only one who retreated slowly. Because he was injured by Huang Zhong, he was under the protection of the generals. The retreat speed was a bit slower, and there was a tendency to be surrounded by Huang Zhong's troops.

Then at this time, Guan Yu led his troops straight to Huang Zhong. He ordered his soldiers to help Xia Houyuan block Huang Zhong's army, while he himself led his troops to confront Huang Zhong, and Guan Yu himself fought Huang Zhong. battle.

When Huang Zhong saw Guan Yu for the first time, he couldn't help seeing Lie Xinxie. He also knew that Guan Yu was a famous general, and he was the number one under Liu Bei.

Guan Yu and Huang Zhong fought on the field, while Xia Houyuan was rescued by his subordinates. It didn't take long. Guan Yu saw that everyone had almost evacuated, and then he swung his sword, abandoned Huang Zhong, and then rode his horse towards the direction he came from. run.

Huang Zhong was not in a hurry to chase, he looked at Guan Yu's back, sighed with emotion, and said: "It seems that this attack on Sichuan is not an easy task, there are many brave generals in the enemy army, look Coming to want Pingchuan, I'm afraid it's not as easy as we imagined."

Cao Jun and Guan Yu's soldiers and horses hurriedly withdrew to Yangping Pass, and the guards of Yangping Pass lowered the suspension bridge to welcome their soldiers and horses into the pass.

Yangping Pass is the first barrier to enter Hanzhong from Xiegu. Yangping Pass is extremely steep. The only way to pass is a city gate suspension bridge in front of the pass. Next to it are towering mountains, which cannot be crossed by ordinary people.

But now when Cao Jun and Liu Jun entered Yangping Pass together, after the suspension bridge in the pass was lowered, soldiers and hornets chrysalis entered for a while, and there was no possibility of pulling it up again in a short time.

At this time, not far from Yangping Pass, the main Chinese army led by the pottery merchant had already waited and watched for a long time.

The potter flicked the horsewhip in his hand lightly, watching Cao Jun and Liu Jun rushing into Yangping Pass not far away cheerfully, smiled, turned his head and told Xu Rong behind him, "It's time for you to go out!" Is it possible?"

Xu Rong looked coldly at Yangping Pass in the distance, then turned his head, cupped his hands to the potter, and said, "The general will arrange for people to go there, and take Yangping Pass for my lord no matter what!"

The pottery merchant smiled and nodded, and said: "You don't have to be too impatient. Focus on stability first. We can't win Yangpingguan. We can look back and think of other ways. Don't do anything because you are greedy for a while. Accident."

Xu Sheng said: "Prime Minister, don't worry, the general will naturally be cautious."

……

Cao Jun and Liu Jun were passing the suspension bridge of Yangping Pass and swarming into the pass. Suddenly, there was a cry of killing from behind them.

Guan Yu and Xia Houyuan urged the troops to enter the pass quickly, when they suddenly heard the shouts of killing behind them, they hurriedly turned their heads to look.

Guan Yu originally thought that the soldiers who had just rescued Ma Chao and Xu Chu were chasing after him, but after taking a closer look now, he realized that the opposing generals were Xu Rong, Xu Sheng, Zang Ba, Li Tong, A Fei, Tao Ji, Another huge Jinling army led by Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and others.

After thinking about it quickly, Guan Yu hurriedly said: "No, I fell into the trap!"

From the very beginning, the potter's key goal was to pass Yangping Pass, and he wanted to take this opportunity to take Yangping Pass in one fell swoop.

The rest are blindfolds.

But in the current situation, even if Guan Yu knew the potter's thoughts and wanted to make adjustments, it was too late.

Guan Yu looked viciously at the Jinling troops who were getting closer and closer. The guards at Yangping Pass could not pull the suspension bridge at all...

The suspension bridge is full of troops from our own side, and the bee pupae are piled up, crushing the suspension bridge to death, and no one can get in at all.

When he was young, the Jinling army rushed to the rear of Cao Jun, and slashed at the dispatched Cao Liu coalition army.

The soldiers defending the city at Yangping Pass wanted to repel them with random arrows, but the Jinling Army and their own soldiers appeared so intertwined that it was difficult to distinguish them from each other.

Nothing happened, and the dispatch was gradually seized by the Jinling Army.

There is no urn city in Yangping Pass, once the gate of the pass is broken through, it is equivalent to rushing into the pass.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun led the trapped camp and rushed into the city first. In this kind of battlefield, the strength of the trapped camp is the easiest to show.
