Capture Cao Cao alive

Capture Cao Cao alive

Things can not be done, you can make the generals each rate the headquarters, in turn, retreat, cross cover society. "

Seeing that Cao Hong's foot soldiers could not hold back the 800 stragglers, Cao Cao gave up the idea of luck, the opportunity to destroy the bandits had been completely lost, if not withdrawn early, the entire Han army would be in danger of being wiped out. Cao Cao immediately decided, ordered to retreat in turn, as for still trapped in the chaos of Liu Bei's troops, Cao Cao is not care.

"Retreat~ Retreat~~"

Xiahou Dun howled mournfully through the clouds, leading his two thousand elite soldiers to protect Cao Cao, Cheng Yu, Chen Gong and others to retreat in fear, Le Jin, Li Dian rate of elite soldiers more than a thousand temple, while Xiahou Yuan more than a thousand elite soldiers just rushed out from the chaos, a tidal wave of roaming past Le Jin, Li Dian's troops, dragging back a thousand paces to form a formation.

When Xiahou Yuan's department finished forming up, Le Jin and Li Dian led the army to slowly retreat, although fast but less than chaos.

Witnessing Cao's army in danger and calmly retreating, Ma Yue's heart was cold, Cao Cao really deserves to be a great lord! The civil servants and military generals under his command were not easy to compete with, even though they were attacked suddenly, they could still be so calm. However, the wolf bites and bones, since they are entangled by 800 stragglers, do they still want to get out easily?

A cold smile hung on the corner of Ma Yue's mouth.

"Pei Yuan Shao, Zhou Cang!"

Pei Yuan Shao and Zhou Cang beat their horses and answered in a stern voice: "The last general is here!"

"Lead two hundred light horsemen each to intercept and kill, never let the Han army escape easily!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Eight hundred stragglers, stragglers world~~"

Pei Yuan Shao and Zhou Cang roared in the same voice.

"There is no retreat, there is no enemy for me~"

Two hundred light horsemen each responded frantically. In an instant, the two light horsemen were like two sharp scimitars, separated from the eight hundred stragglers. They bypassed Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin's elite troops and went straight to Cao Cao's central army. Xiahou Dun was leading his army to run when he suddenly heard the roar of horses' hooves and looked back in shock, only to see hundreds of stragglers' cavalry had come whistling around Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin's men.

"Line up, line up!"

"Spear soldiers forward, light infantry in the center, circular defense formation ~ to protect the Lord!"

Xiahou Dun gave an order, the well-trained Cao soldiers quickly formed a circular defense formation, with nearly a thousand spearmen ringed outside. The spears were raised to form a dense spear formation, with sharp spear blades, like the sharp needles on a hedgehog, even if it was a tiger or a wolf, it was difficult to get down.

"Ouch~~"

The deafening sound of the horses' hooves was followed by the whistling of several sharp three-pronged spears, which pierced the Cao's army with cold flames. Several soldiers of Cao's army wailed and fell to their death amidst several miserable howls.

The light cavalry of the roving bandits kept riding past a thousand paces and then turned back, but did not continue to attack, but only watched from afar, like two wolves peeping at their side. They are not eager to attack, but they are still in the dark, waiting for you to show fatigue before they come up and bite you hard, and then when you regain your stance, they fall back to the distance and continue to watch.

"These damned bastards, cowards!"

Xiahou Dun was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but could do nothing about it.

Cao Cao suddenly frowned tightly, a cloud of gloom looming over his heart. Chen Gong beside him sucked in a cold breath and said in a gruff voice, "Ma Yue, this thief, knows the essence of cavalry harassment and attack.

Cao Cao's eyes had a stern aura, if he continued to entangle like this, it would be difficult to escape when Ma Yue's main force had destroyed Liu Bei's army on the banks of the Ying Shui River, so he said with a fierce voice: "Order the whole army immediately. Don't worry about the chasing horses behind you, retreat at full speed."

Chen Gong said with awe, "My lord is wise. Although the enemy's horses are difficult to deal with, there are only three or four hundred horses, how many of my soldiers can they kill?"

Cheng Yu sighed and said, "For today's sake, this is the only way."

......

On the banks of the Ying Shui River, the battle was raging.

Although Cao Cao's 5,000 elite Han troops had withdrawn, Liu Bei's left and right Han troops still had a firm upper hand, chasing the remaining nearly 10,000 bandits to the ground and killing them. Seeing Cao Cao lead the army to retreat, Liu Bei know bad also have the intention to withdraw troops, but Guan Yu is far away at the other end of the battlefield difficult to communicate news, Zhang Fei but long do not know where to kill, how to find in a hurry?

Liu Bei couldn't bear to abandon his two righteous brothers and flee alone, so he had to lead a team of elite soldiers to rush into the chaos to find Zhang Fei.

Ma yue expression indifferent, straddles the horse to stand in a piece of high above, travels the eye to look down, only to see the whole battlefield as if a pot boils the ground boiling water, boils against the sky, left, center, right each has a fine soldier, as if three sharp bone picking knife, in the yellow turban bandit soldier array stirs up a tumult.

"Xu Chu."

Xu Chu looked wooden, steered his horse and said loudly, "The last general is in."

"Rate light cavalry two hundred, intercept the left way Han army."

"As ordered."

"Deng Wei."

"The last general is here."

"Lead two hundred light cavalry to meet the Chinese army in the middle."

"As ordered."

"Guan Hai."

"The last general is here."

"Lead two hundred light horsemen to intercept the Han army on the right."

"As ordered."

Xu Chu three tiger roar one, each point up two hundred light cavalry, swept away.

Ma yue abruptly turned around, looked at the last remaining dozens of heavy armor iron cavalry, eyes flowing wolf general ruthless color, said morosely: "Follow me!"

"Ha~"

Ma Yue shouted, the war horse let go with a long neigh and ran forward, dozens of heavily armored iron cavalry also surged forward. Hoof speed, splashing up the sky of mud, in an instant, Ma Yue rate dozens of riders have been like a wedge into the chaos of the bandit formation.

An urgent shout suddenly rang out from the front, attracting Ma Yue's attention.

"I am General Zhang Liang, where is General Ma Yue? Take me to see Ma Yue!"

Zhang Liang, who had come back from the dead and looked wretched, hurriedly rushed to a heavy-armored iron rider. He looked eagerly at the cavalryman's cold, ghostly face mask, with an inexplicable cold aura coming out of the mask's eye cavity, which was actually a killing machine. Zhang Liang excited a cold shiver. Huo Ran back a step.

"You~~who are you?"

"Don't you want to see me?"

A sorrowful voice rang out from behind the ghost-faced mask.

Zhang Liang sucked in a cold breath and said with awe, "You~~ are you Ma Yue?"

"Giddyup~"

Zhang Liang's expression was wooden, staring straight at the hideous ghost face getting closer and closer in front of him, the sharp hoof was like knocking on his heart, like a death knell, and the cherry red tassel on the top of the horse armor was as bleak as blood!

"Fondle~"

"Poof~"

The cold steel blade cut through the air, dazzling a light cold. A shallow red mark from Zhang Liang's neck, in a moment, hot blood fountain-like splash up, Zhang Liang's body stiffened, staring dead ahead, eyes showing resignation, anger, disappointment, resentment and frustration ~ and finally like a candle flame dimming, the breath of life like a tide from Zhang Liang's body receded, a deep darkness is gradually enveloping him ... ... ...

"Uh~~"

Zhang Liang finally let out a breathless moan, his head drooped limply, and his straight body fell down like a sawn-off log.

"Phew~"

Ma Yue stopped the war horse and looked back abruptly. Zhang Liang's body was already on the spot.

......

"Whoever stands in my way dies~~"

Zhang Fei rode into the, like a crazy tiger, zhang eight snake spear up and down dance, blocker phi, behind Zhang Fei, eighteen ride family members vowed to follow, forming a sharp triangle charge formation, like a sharp steel knife. The yellow turban bandits will cut off the flesh and blood piece by piece.

Stolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.

"Die open ~"

Zhang Fei roared, another spear swing out to pick open the chest cavity of one of the bandits, hot blood splashed face, more and more aroused his fierceness, looking up to the sky three long whistles, crimson blood along his lips into his mouth, and dripping down his cold teeth, hideous as a ghost.

"Hoo~"

The ear-piercing sound of air-breaking suddenly sounded, icy cold killing machine from the left side rushed to, Zhang Fei head did not return. The spear in his hand lightning-like hand out.

"Dang~"

Exciting sound of gold and iron sounded through the clouds, strong recoil tidal wave backwards, shocked Zhang Fei arms numb, Zhang Fei pupils abruptly contracted, eyes flowing inexplicable serious, this guy good strong arm strength, actually and his equal! The yellow turban bandits have such a person!

Zhang Fei Huo turned around, only to see a general bared teeth, description of the harsh as a ghost. Predictable, but the body is as strong as an ox. Clothed in a sackcloth, bare in the field on the stomach to reveal a thick and dense black hair, living like a beast head! Zhang Fei said he looked vicious, but I did not expect that there was someone who was ten times more vicious than him.

"Who is this?"

Zhang Fei raised his snake spear and shouted loudly.

"I am Dian Wei." The vicious man bellowed, and spurred his horse like flying, "Eat my halberd again ~~ kill!"

Zhang Fei's face muscle twitched, a pair of black eyes suddenly dark red, chaotic look like a tidal wave spurts up, feel the main general's fervent battle intent flowing from the eighteen riders behind the general's eyes also became hot, wildly clamoring, brave death to meet the two hundred light riders behind Dian Wei.

......

"Yah~"

Guan Yu killed the sex, the sky long whistle, is pushing the horse into the moment, steeply see a thief will intercept the way, only to see that the thief will be masculine, quite bound tiger's might, but eyes mute, expression cold, intercepted Guan Yu also did not say, just cold across the horse stand, just waiting for Guan Yu to go forward to kill.

"Kill!"

Guan Yu angrily shouted, urged his horse into a gallop, the phoenix eyes in the killing machine overflowing, heavy can be eighty-three pounds of cold and beautiful saw chopping down, such as a tarzan pressed like a straight cut that thief general head. The thief will not be afraid, will hold the long knife in the hand a cross, high over the top intended to fight Guan Yu this tarzan like a chop.

Looking for death!

Guan Yu's heart coldly.

"Bam~"

Guan Yu's sword full of anger viciously chopped on the hilt of the thief's long sword raised over the top, emitting a fierce and suffocating sound of gold and iron.

"Whinny~~"

The thief general crotch horse suddenly hissed, bent legs backward, has been backward dozens of steps before stopping. Guan Yu full of anger a knife is incredibly was held up!

"Hmm?"

Guan Yu's eyes were astonished, and then looked at the thief's eyes instantly became grave.

"I also eat a knife!"

Suddenly, the thief general shot his horse back. The heavy long knife in his hand split the long air, according to Guan Yu's head viciously cut down, that a harsh hiss shattered Guan Yu's eardrums.

Guan Yu expression indifferent, will be cold saw across the top, morally said: "will receive you ten knives and how?"

The frosty encounter across the ground, that the thief will and Guan Yu are up for the fight, you kill back and forth into a ball.

......

"Third brother! Where is Yide?"

Liu Bei hand dance double-stranded sword, spurred the horse in the chaos of the army left and right, is looking for Zhang Fei occasion, cold killing machine suddenly from the front tidal wave to. Liu Bei cold cold shiver, Huo looked up, only to see ten paces in front of you, I do not know when has been standing a pagoda like a big man.

The big man's face like a pot, eyes like copper bells, exposed in the field on the arm muscle block gnarled, hideous, more so Liu Bei heart trembling is, the big man's arm is also wrapped around a circle of dark iron chain, the end of the chain is clearly connected to a large meteor hammer, hammer that a wolf tooth nail is flashing dark harsh aura. There is crimson blood dripping down the sharp wolf teeth nails, as if the wolf dripping blood fangs.

Guanhai held a meteor hammer, like a mountain blocked Liu Bei way, heart excited, mother, this little white face and civilized and beautiful. Looks like a big official, this time to catch live.

......

Ying Shui to the north of the wilderness, Cao Cao, Cheng Yu, Chen Gong in Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Le Jin, Li Dian generals escorted by the north in a hurry to flee, the Han army are wolf run, desperate and forward. Pei Yuan Shao, Zhou Cang two light cavalry like maggots, chasing after them, constantly lagging behind the Han soldiers wailing and falling in a pool of blood, become the soul of the stragglers under the sword.

Pei Yuan Shao, Zhou Cang two light cavalry like two ferocious and cunning wolves, not eager to bite the prey to death, but by virtue of the wind speed advantage, east bite, west nibble a piece, and constantly increase the wounds on the prey. Let the Han army keep bleeding, bleeding, bleeding again ......

If the Han army doesn't stop and line up to meet the attack, the bleeding will continue until the last drop of blood is shed.

Cao Cao looked cold as water, his heart was dripping with blood, not that he didn't want to stop, but he couldn't stop.

It's not that Cao Cao didn't know what kind of damage would be done to the Han army by running away in such a panic, but there was no other way! If the army formed into a neat formation and retreated slowly, it could effectively stop the harassment of the light cavalry, but the marching speed would be as slow as a snail. Once the main force of Ma Yue's bandits caught up with Liu Bei after destroying his troops, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The good thing is. As long as they enter the city, they will no longer be afraid of Ma Yue's 800 stragglers. Although the stragglers' light cavalry is difficult to deal with, it is in the wilderness, but if there is a strong city to defend, what is the fear of the cavalry?

While Cao Cao was thinking about it, he suddenly saw dust and smoke rolling in the north, and the wind was blowing, as if a large army was advancing this way.

Oh no! Cao Cao's heart cried out in misery, his army was all around him, and there were only 500 elite soldiers of Cao Ren in Chang She, who had to guard the city and protect the grain and provisions, and could not possibly divide his troops to rescue him. This is really a blockage in front and a chasing army in the back, could it be that the army is really going to be defeated here today?

Cao Cao's small eyes swept a stern aura and coldly said to Xiahou Dun at his side, "Pass the order, the army stop retreating, the original formation, prepare to meet the enemy!"

Xiahou Dun tiger roar, led the order and went, in a moment harsh loud and clear roar resounded through the long sky.

"Formation, formation ~~ prepare to meet the enemy ~~"

Cao Cao's army could only form up when the army in front of them also could only kill, but to Cao Cao's surprise, it was a remnant of three to five hundred men. To run closer, Cao Cao began to see that the leader of the general is Cao Ren.

At this time, Cao Ren has long been no longer the masculine and heroic hair, only see the hair, ragged clothes, and blood bath, very wretched.

"Zi Xiao?" Cao Cao said in shock, "Why are you here if you are not defending in Chang She?"

Cao Ren ran to Cao Cao's front, to the knees of the dust, full of shame said, "Lord, Cao Ren incompetence, Chang She lost ~"

"What!?" Cao Cao was astonished. He felt a blackness in front of his eyes and said, "Chang She has been lost. Where are the grain and provisions?"

Cao Ren's face was red and his head hung lower as he said in a low voice, "They are all trapped in the city."

Chen Gong and Cheng Yu also paled at the words, secretly alarmed, the city lost can be retaken, but if the food and provisions lost and then to retrieve it is difficult, the bandits are likely to put it to the torch when they can not take away. If there are no provisions, Cao Cao's army will not be able to hold on to the city and the only option is to return to Chenliu.

When Cao Cao heard this, he was furious and said, "Men. Let me drag this man down and behead him!"

Cao Ren knelt down in the dust with a wooden expression, neither arguing nor begging for mercy, Chen Gong hurriedly went forward and pulled Cao Cao's sleeve to persuade: "Please calm your anger, Lord."

Cheng Yu said urgently, "General Cao Ren, how did the Chang She lose the land?"

Cao Cao's expression eased a little and asked Cao Ren, "Tell us quickly, if you say anything false, you will be executed without mercy."

Cao Ren said, "Since the Lord's army left the city, Ren did not dare to slacken off a bit, and immediately assigned soldiers to guard the four gates, and sent soldiers to patrol the streets. The situation was settled after the people's riots were quelled. Who would have thought that when it was about to dawn, the sound of killing suddenly rose inside the city, countless bandits came out of the ground, our army is small, deadly battle can not be defeated. We had to leave in defeat."

Cao Cao said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense! The bandits are not rats, how can they break through the earth?"

Cao Ren responded, "That is the truth."

Cao Cao did not believe him and was about to rebuke him when Chen Gong suddenly said, "My lord, what General Cao Ren said is probably not true!"

"Why did Gongtai say that?"

Chen Gong said, "Zhongde and Gong were both puzzled by the fact that the 800 stragglers were able to conceal themselves from General Cao Hong's scouts without being detected. The eight hundred stragglers hidden under the, so hidden from our army scouts."

Cheng Yu said: "We failed to anticipate that Ma Yue would hide his men and horses in the pit, so we lost all our efforts and the whole army fell into a passive situation, hey~"

Cao Cao said with awe, "Why is that so?"

As Cao Cao's words fell, he suddenly heard the sound of killing in the north, and a bandit army was raging over, numbering two thousand men. Raising his voice roared: "Do not go away Cao Cao, Liaohua is here waiting for a long time ~ ~"

"Capture Cao Cao alive ~ capture Cao Cao alive ~ ~"

Behind Liao Hua. Two thousand bandits howled in response, and in a moment, a landslide of shouting like a tsunami resounded through the clouds.

Xiahou Yuan was furious and said, "Lord, the army will retreat first, so I will take care of these soldiers!"

Cao Cao admonished: "The bandits foot soldiers are not enough to fear, Miao Cai only need to be careful to watch out for stragglers light cavalry."

Xiahou Yuan said, "It is better to leave all these scraps behind, don't worry Lord, I have my own plan to deal with them."

Cao Cao left a thousand elite soldiers with Xiahou Yuan, and led the remaining 3,000 men to merge with Cao Ren's 500 defeated troops, retreating in disarray towards Chenliu County.

......

"Hey, hey!"

Liu Bei's face was flushed, blood in his chest was surging, just now, although he could barely take three moves of Guan Hai, but is already the end of the strong, see the dark meteor hammer again like a lightning bolt, want to dodge is too late, can not help but be horrified.

"Poof~"

"Uh ah~~"

A shadow of a person, a junior school stand out, can only block in front of Liu Bei, Guan Hai unstoppable hammer in his chest smashed right in his chest, several sharp wolf teeth steel nails instantly pierced into the junior school chest, heavy iron hammer also smashed his chest the entire dent.

The junior colonel screamed, opened his mouth and spewed out a mouthful of blood, hissed with a hideous expression, "Protect~the~lord~the~prince~uh~~"

A few of his own soldiers look like mad, roar of anger actually use their own body as a weapon, viciously rammed into the speedy pursuit of Guan Hai, while the mouth shouted: "Lord quickly go ~"

Liu Bei finally breathed, a few of his own soldiers to fight to the death to protect him for a moment of respite, taking advantage of Guan Hai to clean up the time of his own soldiers, fearfully hit the horse and fled. Guan Hai's gaze is awe-inspiring, although these pawns do not measure up to their own strength, sacrificing their lives to save the Lord's loyalty is admirable.

Meteor hammer stammer between, a few of his own soldiers by Guan Hai cut like a vegetable, and then look up, Liu Bei has long fled only a back, Guan Hai can not help but anxious, flung open a big step to chase, while the mouth shouted: "do not go, leave life ~ ~"

......

Cao Cao led his army to the north and ran less than 20 miles, when another bandit army came to the front, the first bandit general ran like flying, shouted with his arm, "Don't go Cao Cao, Sun Zhong is waiting here for a long time~~"

Behind Sun Zhong, two thousand bandits also shouted in the same voice: "Capture Cao Cao alive~ Capture Cao Cao alive~"

Cao Cao was surprised and looked back, and Pei Yuan Shao and Zhou Cang, two stragglers, were chasing after him.

At the critical moment, Le Jin said bravely, "Lord can lead the army to retreat first, Le Jin only need the headquarters of the elite soldiers five hundred, vowed to die against the bandits."

......

Ying Shui River, deep water.

Liu Bei desperately cling to a stake, both feet to tread hard, trying to ensure that they can float on the surface of the water, not to sink, and then head in the river search, anxiously shouted: "second brother ~ second brother ~"

"Big brother, I'm here!"

Liu Bei suddenly heard a crashing sound of water behind him, alarmed back, only to see Guan Yu soaked through the water and out.

"Second brother, have you seen third brother?"

Guan Yu said, "No, I think I've been separated."

Liu Bei sighed and looked gloomy, his two thousand troops, the battle of Ying Shui was wiped out, even if they managed to escape with their lives, even if Liu Dai does not care about the past, but how to face to see? When he thought of the uncertainty of his future, Liu Bei could not help but feel discouraged.

Guan Yu saw Liu Bei look depressed, quite depressed, busy to advise: "victory and defeat is a common thing in the military, big brother do not need to worry about."

Liu Bei sighed: "That said, but the battle of Ying Shui was lost too injustice, if not for Cao Cao's withdrawal of the army in the last minute, put our army in a desperate situation, this battle victory is not yet predictable."

Guan Yu phoenix eyes a cold, said in a deep voice: "Brother do not be angry, the next day to meet the Cao Cao thieves, I a knife to cut off his head is."

The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public.

The first thing I want to do is to go to the mountains and become a bandit, and then I can find my third brother.

The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you want to do.
