The Baibo bandits were a group of bandits active in the Hedong area. The leaders were Yang Feng, Han Xian, Li Le, and Hu Cai, and Dong Cheng was also one of them.They were brave and good at fighting, able to confront Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army.In history, when Dong Zhuo died, they snatched Emperor Xian of Han from Xiliang army and took control of the court at that time.As a result, Yang was fooled by Cao Cao, lured by Cao Cao with the food they urgently needed, and agreed to Cao Cao's approach to Han Xiandi, and then Cao Cao tricked Han Xiandi to Xuchang step by step, taking away their trump card.

Cao Cao knew Dong Cheng's background very well. If Dong Cheng only relied on his nominal army, even if he succeeded in killing Cao Cao, he would not be able to control Cao Cao's army and subordinates.So he must have contacted with the white wave bandits, ready to use this team to receive the fruits of victory at the critical moment.

But now that Cao Cao was prepared, the team that Dong Cheng regarded as a surprise soldier lost most of the threat.

As the Baibo thief approached, the drums in Cao Cao's camp suddenly sounded, and countless soldiers ran out of the camp, quickly forming an array, and surrounded the Baibo thief in the center.

Dong Cheng, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, including Sun Ce and Sun Quan were all shocked.They didn't know when Cao Cao ambushed so many soldiers in the camp - if they were used to deal with them, they would have been arrested long ago.

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu looked at each other, said "retire" in unison, and ran out with their respective guards.Fortunately, when I saw Princess Luo Ning and the others break out of the camp, they had already sent the signal for the soldiers to come to meet them!

Although he knew that Cao Cao would not openly slaughter the princes who came to the appointment, no one dared to gamble with his life.

As soon as Yuan Shu left, the Sun brothers also took their own people and left behind him.

Cao Cao personally commanded his men to fight against the Baibo bandits, and smiled slightly at the backs of the Yuan brothers who had left one from the south and the other from the north: "Zixiao, you lead 5000 troops to chase and kill Yuan Gonglu." He warned, "Don't chase too hard, Just feint." Over there, he has already made arrangements.Cao Ren took the order, ordered his men and horses, and chased after him.

"Miaocai, you lead [-] soldiers and horses to hunt down Yuan Benchu." Cao Cao was much more serious about Xia Houyuan's orders.

Compared with Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu is much less threatening.Besides, he already had a reason, whenever he wanted to attack Yuan Shu, he could send troops at any time.But Yuan Shao, this time Cao Cao hoped to join forces with Chu Tianshu, his wife and Gongsun Zan, and really killed him.

He lowered his head and showed the map to Xia Houyuan: "Yuan Benchu ​​is suspicious by nature. If he leaves now, he will definitely not walk alone. He will definitely follow the route taken by Luo Ning and Gongsun Bogui. I think I can let them explore for me. way out of danger."

And going north, crossing the hills, is the shortest way to Yuan Shao's own territory.

"I have already asked Luo Ning and Gongsun Bogui to set up an ambush here." Cao Cao was referring to a valley that runs through the north and south of the hill.

The hills are not high, the valleys are not too dangerous, and the scenery is beautiful. It is easy for people to ignore its danger.

Chu Tianshu and Gongsun Zan left early precisely to ambush Yuan Shao here.When Gongsun Zan occupies the high ground, Chu Tianshu's Luo Ning army blocks the exit of the valley, Xia Houyuan pursues from behind, and Yuan Shao can't escape with his wings!The territories of the three of them are adjacent to Yuan Shao's territory, and they all have the need to carve up Yuan Shao's territory, so they just cooperate.Cao Cao was not worried that Luo Ningjun and Gongsun Zan would change their minds temporarily, because it was not in their interest.

Xia Houyuan took the order, and when he was about to leave, Cao Cao called him back again.

"Miaocai..." He lowered his voice and whispered into Xia Houyuan's ear, "If... Xie Chongming..." Cao Cao made a downward chop gesture, and Xia Houyuan understood his meaning: "Yes!"

Looking into Cao Cao's eyes, Xia Houyuan added in a low voice: "I will keep it secret, so that Princess Luoning won't find out." How could he not know Cao Cao's hobbies? How could Cao Cao not be tempted by someone like Princess Luoning?At that time, Xie Chongming will be dead, and Princess Luoning will still have a territory as large as Guanzhong and Northwest China, and so many soldiers and horses. If they can marry her, their power will double in no time!

Cao Cao was immediately relieved, and nodded approvingly at Xia Houyuan.

Xia Houyuan chased after Yuan Shao with soldiers and horses. Yuan Shao sent someone to ask them what they wanted to do. Xia Houyuan said that Cao Cao asked him to go back to be a witness, interrogate Dong Cheng, and purge Yuan Shu.

How could Yuan Shao be fooled?Would it take tens of thousands of people to ask him to go back and testify?

Fortunately, he had been prepared and had figured out the terrain around the hunting ground in advance. He had already arranged his soldiers and horses behind the mountain. As long as he crossed the small hill forty miles ahead, he would be able to join the large army.

"My lord, we need to watch out for an ambush ahead." Ju Shou reminded Yuan Shao on his horse, "Princess Luoning and Gongsun Zan are both walking in this direction, and they might be ambushing us in front. You know, they are all with us. Our territories are adjacent, and we have been eyeing them all the time."

"Princess Luo Ning and Gongsun Zan, what have they done? They can join forces to ambush us?" Yuan Shao said, and sent additional scouts to investigate ahead.

Thinking about the terrain drawn by the scouts before, Yuan Shao said: "If there is an ambush, it must be in that valley."

That valley runs through the hill from north to south and is the fastest route through the hill.Xia Houyuan chased so closely, they had no other choice but to walk out of the valley.

There are too many cases of being attacked from the valley in history, and everyone knows to be careful.As long as the scouts are asked to investigate the situation above the valley and the exit in advance, they can avoid being ambushed.

Moreover, Yuan Shao's 5 troops are at the other end of the valley. As long as they find someone ambushing, they will realize the problem and will naturally clean up those ambush soldiers.

Xia Houyuan chased after him, forcing Yuan Shao and his 1000 men to gallop desperately.Zhang He led several hundred elites to fight desperately, almost killing all the elites, and then saved Yuan Shao and the others to the foot of the mountain.

The scouts returned from the front and reported that there was no one on the top of the mountain, but in the middle of the valley, Luo Ning's men and Gongsun Zan's men fought together, causing countless casualties.

After confirming that there was no danger, Yuan Shao rushed into the valley with the remaining hundreds of guards. Sure enough, he saw corpses strewn all over the field in front of him. Gongsun Zan, known for his bravery, fled in despair.

Yuan Shao gloated a little at first, but after seeing Xie Kun's killing like a god, he couldn't help shivering.After thinking about it, I shouldn't have offended Xie Chongming too much, right?

He had heard from those caravans before that Xie Chongming and his wife were both excellent in martial arts, on par with Lu Bu, but he still didn't quite believe it. How could there be so many Lu Bu in this world, but they got married again?It's definitely because those caravans have taken advantage of Luo Ning's side, bragging to their husband and wife outside, and recruiting talents.

Now seeing Xie Kun's slaughter like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, Yuan Shao realized that those words were not bragging at all!

"Don't fight!" Yuan Shao immediately sent someone to stop it, "Cao Cao's soldiers and horses are catching up, and they want to kill us all!"

Xie Kun seemed to be red-eyed, he ignored them at all, and ran after Gongsun Zan with his gun.Gongsun Zan also seemed frightened, desperately slapped his horse and fled towards the north valley entrance.

The two chased and fled, and soon ran to Taniguchi.

Yuan Shao shook his head helplessly: "Young people are prone to impulsiveness!" The momentary quarrel of emotions has reached this level, isn't it for Cao Cao to take advantage of it?If there was no Xia Houyuan chasing after him, he would not persuade them and let them fight on, and in the end he would reap the benefits of the fisherman, that would be great.

At this moment, Ju Shou suddenly yelled: "My lord, go!"

Suddenly, a big fire broke out at the mouth of the valley ahead, and countless rockets shot down from the mountain. Fires suddenly burst out under the seemingly green grass on both sides of the valley. burn up.

Looking at the corpse lying on the ground in front of him, Yuan Shao couldn't help roaring: "Didn't they really fight just now?"

Ju Shou smiled wryly: "Can we be fooled if we don't fight?" If the valley was empty, they would definitely send scouts to search the surroundings first, and the hay and kerosene would be easily found.But when the two sides fought, whoever dared to get close to that side would come up and kill them, and they would have no chance to check the surroundings.

As soon as Xie Kun and Gongsun Zan came out of the valley entrance, they ran to different positions, one left and one right. Gongsun Zan's men were hidden on both sides of the hill, still some distance away from the valley entrance, and they would not rush to both sides of the valley until the scouts passed by.

But Xie Kun's men guarded the entrance of the valley, blocked the entrance with hay and boulders, and waited for Yuan Shao's remnant soldiers to break through before going forward to kill.

Gongsun Zan showed a sneer on his face.

Just now Xie Kun used the excuse to dispel Yuan Shao's suspicion, lured Yuan Shao into ambush, and invited him to do a real kill in the valley.The results of it?At least [-]% of his personal guards died!Only a dozen people died on Xie Kun's side!

It's true that their husband and wife are both brave and invincible in melee combat, but the situation is different now!

He had thought about it a long time ago, to deal with their husband and wife, he could only use bows and arrows, water and fire!No matter how powerful Ren is, can he defeat a thousand arrows?Can it withstand the ruthlessness of fire and water?

Now that he is in the high place, he is in the limelight, while Xie Kun and the others are in the lower part of the valley, they are in the limelight. Isn't it just at his mercy?

Gongsun Zan looked at Yuan Shao's troops surrounded by flames in the valley, with a ferocious expression on his face, and gestured towards the direction of Xie Kun's ambush: "Shoot!" Countless flaming arrows fell from the sky, instantly knocking Taniguchi to the ground. ignite.

If it can't shoot you, it can burn you!
