The World of Yellow Sky

On July [-]th, at four quarters of the hour (eight o'clock).

Cao Cao watched as the horses were being pulled, and they would arrive in Xingyang in just over half an hour.

Just as Cao Cao was observing the terrain, a travel-worn messenger suddenly galloped up, bringing a piece of news that made Cao Cao a little frightened.

"General Qi, the front of our army was ambushed by Dong Zhuo's army!"

Cao Cao didn't hesitate, and immediately asked eagerly: "How many people are there in Dong Zhuo's army?"

He knew that the more hesitation, the more danger ahead.

They had to win this battle. He knew the main reason why all the princes, including Yuan Shao, hesitated to go forward.

Dong Zhuo is powerful, and his troops are strong and strong. They don't have the confidence to defeat Dong Zhuo.

But as long as this battle is won, in the eyes of everyone, Dong Zhuo will be a piece of fat, not a hungry wolf.

At that time, the Kwantung heroes who smelled the taste of flesh and blood will march into Luoyang for profit.

As long as this battle is won, the Kwantung Allied Forces who have no confidence will think that Dong Zhuo is weak and can be defeated.

"A rough observation shows that the ambush army has tens of thousands of people, and there will be more soldiers entering the battlefield later. The banner of the opponent's general is Dong Zhuo's Zhonglang General Xu Rong!"

The military situation is urgent, and there is no room for hesitation.

Cao Cao drew out the sword from his waist without hesitation, and roared angrily.

"Here's an order from the big banner. This battle is of great importance. There is death but no life, and there is no retreat! If you win, I, Cao Mengde, will show my merits in front of the emperor. If you lose, I, Cao Mengde, will die together with you!!!"

"Go on!"

Cao Cao held a long sword and went out first, and all the armored cavalry behind Cao Cao galloped out.

The command of the Chinese army was handed over to Bao Xin by Cao Cao, and a group of generals galloped forward following Cao Cao's banner.

The front was ambushed and was probably on the verge of collapse at this time.

He, Cao Cao, is not a master of the art of war, he is not Lu Zhi who can command troops to retreat without being defeated, nor is he Xu An who can easily boost the morale of soldiers.

He can only use actions to encourage the soldiers under his command. He can only let the banner appear on the battlefield to let everyone know that their lord has not abandoned them, but is also fighting with them, strengthening their determination.

The earth receded rapidly under the horseshoes of the war horses, and the fierce battlefield was getting closer and closer before Cao Cao's eyes.

In just an instant, Cao Cao judged the general situation.

Although the front was ambushed, the army formation has not been completely defeated. It seems that Dong Zhuojun's ambush was discovered in time, and the loss was not too heavy.

Cao Cao had already given up his sword and replaced it with a horse lance. Cao Chun and Cao Ren also held horse lances and followed Cao Cao closely.

Looking back leisurely, I saw the heads of countless horses were heaving and moving, the manes of the horses were flying wildly in the strong wind, and countless knights raised their weapons and shouted "mighty!".

Amidst the tide-like sound of iron hooves, billows of smoke and dust were brought up, soaring straight to Jiuxiao!

The glare of the sun made Cao Cao close his eyes, and in a daze, Cao Cao seemed to be back on Guangzong's battlefield.

Back to the time when they worked together.

"kill!!!"

Cao Cao opened his eyes again, revealing the murderous intent in his pupils.

More than [-] elite cavalry under the leadership of Cao Cao slammed into the flank of Dong Zhuo's army who had no time to turn to defense.

On the hill, Xu Rong looked at Cao Cao who had rushed into the formation but showed no signs of panic.

In fact, the outcome of this war has been doomed from the very beginning, and everything is doomed to be futile.

In the eyes of the generals of the Xiliang Army, the Kwantung Allied Army is nothing more than a chicken and a dog.

The flag was waved, and a series of general orders came from Xu Rong's mouth.

Group after group of soldiers of the Xiliang army in black clothes and armor continuously joined the battlefield, but in the distance of the main battlefield, no one noticed that the two Xiliang cavalry were galloping forward.

……

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

The drums of the Xiliang Army became more and more passionate.

The helmet on Cao Cao's head had already been lost somewhere, the blood stained his robe, and the blood dripped on his temples, condensing his hair into several balls.

Cao Chun rushed forward desperately, leading Cao Cao forward.

Now there are only a dozen soldiers left by Cao Cao's side.

The situation on the battlefield was unfavorable, and they retreated steadily. Cao Chun led Cao Cao to break out of the siege, but Xu Rong had already set up a trap at the place of retreat, waiting for Cao Cao to jump into the trap.

They lost...

The disparity in strength was too great. Under Xu Rong's command, Dong Zhuojun was like a precision instrument, continuously attacking their army formation, so that they could not get the slightest rest.

The two Xiliang cavalry circled behind also made the soldiers below extremely fearful, and morale plummeted under this situation.

From Chenshi to Youshi, they persisted for more than five hours, which is actually a miracle.

The disparity in strength was incomparable, Bao Xin was not Xu Rong's opponent at all in the military strategy, and Xu Rong sent troops to break down one army formation after another.

Cao Cao personally went into battle and led the cavalry to rescue everywhere, but still had little effect.

I can only watch helplessly as one of the army formations on my side is broken.

Watching those rangers, heroes, and soldiers who had defected to him with their knives and guns turned into cold corpses, lying on the extremely dirty land.

Those soldiers who defected to him along the road because of admiration, righteous men, and rangers, none of them retreated. They stood tightly side by side, facing the brave Xiliang soldiers, they did not flinch, and they were worthy of their beliefs.

"I said that in this battle, there is no retreat, no death, and I said that Cao Mengde will die with my soldiers!!"

Cao Cao pushed Cao Chun away and roared angrily.

The arrow wound on his shoulder made Cao Cao's expression even more ferocious.

At this time, Cao Cao had seven or eight feathered arrows on his body. If Cao Cao was not wearing heavy armor, he would have been killed in the battle.

But even so, two feathered arrows shot into the flesh, causing Cao Cao to feel extremely painful every time he moved.

"Kill out, kill out, then avenge me again!!!"

Cao Cao roared angrily, he is now a burden.

Their war horses were already dead in the battle, and there was no other way. Although Cao Chun was brave, it was impossible for him to fight out with his burden.

Cao Chun didn't speak, he held Cao Cao silently, holding the ring-shoulder knife, and led his bodyguards to continue forward with difficulty, no matter how Cao Cao roared, but Cao Chun didn't have the slightest intention to let go.

"Kick kick kick..."

The rapid sound of hoofbeats suddenly sounded, and Cao Cao's eyes showed despair, but then he felt a little relaxed again.

Perhaps it is also a good choice to die on the battlefield like this.

Suddenly, a bloody rain emerged.

The expected death did not come.

A blood-stained general rushed into the formation, frightening like a ghost crawling out of the underworld.

It was Cao Hong who led the troops to arrive and killed Dong Zhuo's army who were besieging them.

"kill!!!"

Before everyone could recover, the louder shouts of killing sounded again.

It was Dong Zhuojun who came to kill again.

Without the slightest hesitation, Cao Hong stepped off the horse in one step, and asked Cao Cao to get on the horse quickly.

Fighting all the way, all the generals under his command have lost their horses and become infantry. Only Cao Hong's horse, which is wearing a light vest, has not fallen down yet.

"I can't get on the horse, I said yes."

Cao Cao's eyes were red, he was determined and refused to mount his horse.

Bao Xin's younger brother Bao Tao died trying to save him, and Wei Zi, who assisted him in raising troops, also died in battle. If Cao Chun and Cao Hong also died here, how could he have the face to meet his elders.

Die here, can be regarded as an explanation.

Cao Hong's eyes were about to burst, and he roared, "This world can live without me, Cao Hong, but it cannot live without you, Cao Mengde! Only if you kill us can you avenge us!"

Cao Hong didn't let Cao Cao say anything, and helped Cao Cao onto the horse with Cao Chun.

Cao Hong swung his whip and whipped the horse's buttocks, and the horse took Cao Cao away in pain.

"Zi Lian!"

Cao Cao's heart was bleeding, but he didn't dare to stop his horse. Xu Rong's arrangement had already been killed. If he didn't leave now, none of them might be able to leave by then.

Cao Hong took one last look at Cao Cao's leaving back, with a smile on his face.

He and Cao Chun looked at each other, and saw the smile on Cao Chun's face.

"Zheng-"

Cao Hong slowly pulled out the Huan Shou Dao at his waist, and Cao Ren also held the big halberd handed by the soldier beside him.

Beside him, dozens of personal guards, each holding a weapon, were tightly packed together, clinging to each other.

In front of them, there seemed to be endless soldiers of Dong Zhuo's army swarming towards them with swords and guns held high. The sound of dense and hurried footsteps was as loud as the raging tide, and the shouts of the waves were higher than the waves, like the sky. The thunder is generally terrifying.

Chapter 513 Snobbery makes people fight, and heirs kill each other

The Battle of Xingyang came to an end with Cao Cao's disastrous defeat.

Bao Tao, the younger brother of Bao Xin in Jibei County, died in the battle, and Wei Zi, who helped Cao Cao Yu Chenliu, also died in the battle.

Bao Xin was wounded five times, but in the end he broke out of the siege. Cao Cao was injured by an arrow and escaped from death. Cao Chun and Cao Hong finally broke out of the siege.

Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun were also covered in bruises and had to return with a hundred horses.

In the Battle of Xingyang, Dong Zhuo's army won a complete victory, beheading tens of thousands of allied forces, and capturing countless banners and battles.

Cao Cao collected the defeated soldiers all the way, and when he returned to Suanzao, there were only more than [-] generals gathered under his command.

"We are just starting to promote righteousness, but to eliminate thieves for the country. Today Dong Zhuo is in Luoyang, right in the Eight Passes!"

"Let Bohai lead the people of Hanoi to Mengjin, and we will guard Chenggao. According to Aocang, Saiyuyuan [huàn, yuán], and Taigu, we will completely control the dangers. Let General Lu lead the army of Nanyang, Dan, Xi, and enter Wu Off, to shock Sansuke!"

"All are high fortifications and deep walls. Don't fight with them. They will be doubtful soldiers. They will show the situation of the world. If they follow suit and punish rebellion, they can be established. Today's soldiers move with righteousness. If they hold doubts and do not advance, they will lose the hope of the world and steal the shame of all lords. Of!"

No one paid attention to Cao Cao's impassioned words, and no one echoed Cao Cao's plan.

Cao Cao's heart became completely cold, he didn't continue to talk, but walked out of the big tent slowly.

The Kwantung Allied Forces are already far apart, hopeless.

They talk about benevolence and morality, righteousness, and integrity, but they only have interests in their eyes.

Whether it is the emperor of Chang'an or the emperor of Chendu, they treat them as nothing.

"Brother..."

Cao Hong and the others stood outside the tent, supporting each other, and looked at Cao Cao who came out of the tent.

Each of them was more or less wounded, and each of them was covered in blood.

Cao Cao clenched his fists tightly and looked around at the people standing in front of him, his gaze was very firm.

He is Cao Cao, he is Cao Mengde, and he will definitely not let this fall down.

"Let's go to Yangzhou and continue to recruit soldiers..."

……

"Cao Cao is defeated..."

In Chen Du's palace, Liu Xie couldn't help feeling a little depressed when he heard Wang Yue's report.

Although this was expected, he still hoped that Cao Cao would win.

Now Liu Xie's residence is the old palace of Chen Wang Liu Chong, which was rebuilt. After Liu Xie moved in, this place also became a palace.

It is also worthy of Liu Xie to call Liu Chong an uncle. Liu Chong maintains respect for Liu Xie, the emperor, and never treats Liu Xie like a child no matter it is a big or small matter.

Liu Chongfu's title of General Han was also promoted by Liu Xie to General Hussars, which was Wang Yue's proposal.

Yuan Shao called himself General Chaqi, and his prestige was too grand. The only thing Liu Xie can rely on now is Liu Chong. Although Liu Chong is the king of Chen, his official position is not high.

General Fu Han sounds famous, but he is far inferior to Yuan Shao's Chariot General, so he has to be added as Hussar General.
