At the end of the Han Dynasty, there were no Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty

When Cao Cao heard this, he raised his head and laughed wildly, then said in a self-deprecating tone.

"I never thought that I, Cao Cao, would end up in this situation!"

Seeing the sadness on Cao Cao's face, Xia Houyuan stepped forward resolutely, and persuaded Cao Cao eagerly.

"My lord, don't hesitate any longer, let's break through!"

Cao Cao raised his head, closed his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he spoke with difficulty.

"Order to break through!!"

Chen Gong, Xia Houyuan, Cao Hong, Xu Chu, and others bowed their hands to Cao Cao when they heard the words, and answered solemnly.

"promise!"

Afterwards, the four of them quickly walked down the wall and headed to the barracks to prepare.

After the four left, Cao Cao's eyes flashed coldly, and he muttered to himself with a gloomy expression.

"Liu Bei, just pray that Cao Cao can stay in Qingzhou forever this time. If not, I, Cao Cao, will settle this account with you!"

……

As night fell, standing under the city and looking at Pingyuan City, the dark city gate was like a huge mouth.

In conjunction with the black and red color all over the city, there are also bursts of stench, which makes the Pingyuan City stand out against the horror of Ge Sen.

"Squeak..."

In this terrifying atmosphere, the gate of Pingyuan City, which had been closed for many days, was now slowly opened.

I saw an army slowly walking out of the city from the huge black mouth in the dark.

After everyone came out of the city gate, a closer look showed that there were about [-] people in this group.

Without time to hesitate, this group of troops divided into two groups, heading towards Jizhou all the way and heading towards Yanzhou all the way.

At this time, Cao Cao was accompanied by Xu Chu, Chen Gong, and Cao Hong. They led [-] soldiers and horses, and they were heading south to Yanzhou.

Less than a hundred miles to the south of Pingyuan City is Gaotang City, and their goal is not Gaotang, but to go south along the river and enter Qinghe Kingdom in Jizhou.

The other group of soldiers and horses was the five thousand soldiers and horses led by Xia Houyuan. They left Pingyuan City and headed west all the way to Jizhou.

Xia Houyuan knew that there must be Liu Bei's soldiers ambushing on the border of Qingzhou and Hebei in the west of Pingyuan City, but if he didn't do this, Cao Cao would not be able to escape from Qingzhou.

He also knew that this trip was basically a narrow escape, but for Cao Cao, Xia Houyuan had to do it.

The reason why Cao Cao came to Qingzhou to support him was because he was greedy for meritorious deeds and acted too hastily. He had to use his own life to make up for this mistake.

Originally Cao Cao disagreed with Xia Houyuan's actions, but Xia Houyuan's tone was very firm.

Xia Houyuan couldn't kneel in front of Cao Cao, and even forced him to die. Finally, Cao Cao agreed with Xia Houyuan's words with tears.

At this time, Cao Cao and others had already traveled southward for more than ten miles in the dark, but they did not encounter any ambushes.

But they didn't relax at all. They knew that this was just the calm before the storm.

"kill!……"

Just when Cao Cao walked to a bare hill in the dark.

Suddenly, countless torches lit up behind the small hill, and along with the torches, there were countless shouts of killing.

Seeing this, Cao Cao and the others felt a thump in their hearts. They had already avoided the main road and were walking along the small road.

Unexpectedly, I finally walked into the center of the enemy's trap, but I was relieved after thinking about it.

Liu Bei's army has a full 15 soldiers and horses. Even if it is divided into three groups, each route will have [-] soldiers and horses.

Cao Cao smiled miserably, what should come will always come, since it is inevitable, let's fight!

"Hahaha! Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde, I, Liu Bei, have been waiting for you for a long time!"

This time Liu Bei learned to be smart and didn't talk too much nonsense with Cao Cao. Before Cao Cao could answer, Liu Bei directly directed the soldiers and horses behind him to attack.

"Whoever takes Cao Cao's head will be promoted to three ranks and will be rewarded with a hundred gold!"

When the Yellow Turban Army behind Liu Bei heard the words, all of them had red eyes and rushed towards Cao Cao's army with strange howls.

Seeing this, Xu Chuhu who was beside Cao Cao roared and shouted at the soldiers behind him.

"Swear to protect the lord to break through! Follow this general!!"

Facing the black Yellow Turban army rushing towards him like a sea tide, Xu Chu showed no trace of fear on his face.

Instead, he stared at the bull's eye, waved the big knife in his hand with a ferocious expression, and rushed forward immediately.

And the Yanzhou Army behind him also roared, followed closely behind his general, and rushed towards the Yellow Turban Army.

When the two armies met, they could vaguely distinguish who was the enemy and who was the friendly army by the faint light of the torches around them.

Cao Cao had only 5000 soldiers and horses, while Liu Bei's army on the opposite side seemed to have at least no less than [-] troops.

The first time the two armies met, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses did not fall into a disadvantage for a while with the momentum of sacrificing their lives.

But after a while, due to the large difference in numbers, Cao Cao's army suffered a large number of casualties, and as time went by, the casualties became larger and larger.

And Xu Chu was like a raging tiger, he was riding on a war horse, facing the countless enemy troops in front of him, slashing his head and face.

Soon, dozens of Liu Beijun's corpses had fallen around Xu Chu.

The rest of the soldiers looked at Xu Chu with a look of horror, and for a while, they even flinched.

"Come on! Come on!! Why hide?!"

While slashing and killing the enemy soldiers, Xu Chu was still roaring. His face, which was already ferocious, was now stained red with blood, making him look even more ferocious.

"The thieves will stop going crazy! Watch me, Donglai Taishici, come to fight you!"

Just when Xu Chu was fighting like crazy, there was a loud shout not far in front of Xu Chu.

With the light of the fire, a figure could be vaguely seen, riding a snow-white war horse, heading towards Xu Chu.

Seeing this, Xu Chu opened his mouth violently, revealing a ferocious smile.

"Come as soon as you come! I'm afraid you won't succeed?!"

Xu Chu bypassed the group of enemy troops in front of him, and faced the figure without retreating.

"Remember! The person who killed you was Xu Chu from Qiao County!!"

The two approached quickly, and soon collided with each other.

……

Chapter 392 Cao Hong died

"clang……"

The moment the two collided, there was a loud noise, and the weapons of the two were stuck together.

They both felt a huge force from each other, which was transmitted along the weapon to the arm.

Let his two arms become numb in an instant, but even so, neither of them took a step back.

After a moment of stalemate, Tai Shici's arms began to tremble, while Xu Chu shouted again and again, and continued to exert force with his arms. For a while, Tai Shici was a little overwhelmed.

Finally, Tai Shici gritted his teeth violently, and swung the long knife aside with all his strength.

He knew in his heart that the strength of the person opposite him was much greater than himself, and he was no match for brute strength.

However, Tai Shici did not rely mainly on brute force. The weapons he used were two short halberds, which are flexible and changeable.

Therefore, Tai Shici no longer competed with Xu Chu in brute force, but withdrew a certain distance.

After a certain distance between the two, they looked at each other solemnly for a moment, then shouted at the same time, and rushed towards each other again.

Tai Shici's two short halberds were stretched out, the left halberd was used for defense, and the right halberd was used for attacking.

Relying on his agility and changeable weapons, he started to attack Xu Chu fiercely.

But what Tai Shici didn't expect was that Xu Chu's movements were not slow. Although he was not as good as himself, he could still block his moves one by one.

You come and go for a while, the battle between the two is inseparable, fifty rounds passed in a blink of an eye, neither Xu Chu nor Tai Shici took advantage.

"Hahaha... What a Tai Shici! You are the first person who can fight against a certain Xu Chu for [-] times! I, Xu Chu, remember your Tai Shici's name!"

Xu Chu laughed loudly, and praised Tai Shici on the opposite side with a happy face, and he was not worried at all because of his current situation.

Tai Shici also showed a smile when he heard the words, why didn't he admire Xu Chu's martial arts?

Moreover, Tai Shici also liked Xu Chu's bold and fearless character.

"I, Tai Shi Ci, have been able to fight me inextricably since my debut, and you are also the first!"

Hearing this, Xu Chu laughed out loud again, and that hearty laughter spread far, far away.

Afterwards, the two fell into a fierce battle again, Tai Shici was flexible and changeable, and his moves were tricky, while Xu Chu opened and closed, swinging the long knife imperviously, so Tai Shici couldn't find the slightest chance.

As time went by, Xu Chu could stand it, but his soldiers couldn't stand it anymore.

Today, Cao Cao's army has been defeated by Liu Bei's army and has lost nearly half of its troops.

And the soldiers and horses around Cao Cao are also gradually decreasing, Cao Cao is in danger!

Seeing this scene, Xu Chu was extremely anxious, and he decided not to entangle with Tai Shici anymore.

"Give me back!!"

Xu Chu let out a loud roar, and with all his strength, he chopped Tai Shici's spear aside, while he turned his horse's head and ran towards Cao Cao.

Tai Shici forcibly received Xu Chu's heavy chop, and felt his arm was a little numb, but it didn't affect his actions.

I saw Tai Shici staring at Xu Chuyuan's back, stretching out his hand to hold the longbow on his back, but he didn't know what he thought of, so he let go of his hand again.

"Ugh!"

Sighing, Tai Shici turned his horse's head and came to Liu Bei's side on the hill, and then he didn't move.

Liu Bei glanced at Tai Shici flickeringly, he had a panoramic view of the battle between Tai Shici and Xu Chu just now.

Such a fierce general will never lose to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, which made Liu Bei's idea of ​​accepting Tai Shici even stronger.

At this time, Xu Chu also came to Cao Cao's side. Xu Chu didn't say anything, and directly pulled the stunned Cao Cao to his horse.

Then he patted his horse and ran to the side, Xu Chu still roared.

"Zilian help me!!"

Not far away, Cao Hong heard the words and immediately yelled in response.

Xu Chu galloped like a tiger into a flock of sheep. With a knife in his hand, he cut the enemy army in front of him in half.

Xu Chu held the knife in one hand and protected Cao Cao with the other to prevent him from being jolted off his horse. With his own strength, he had already rushed half way.

"Surround him, General! Hugh is going to escape Cao Cao!"

At this time, Zhou Cang came to Xu Chu's vicinity, and shouted at Liu Beijun who was beside him.

Someone commanded, and soon Liu Beijun, who was a little afraid to move forward, surrounded Xu Chu. No matter how Xu Chu hacked, he could not advance an inch.

"I'm so angry!! Get out of here!!"

While Xu Chu wanted to protect Cao Cao, he also wanted to kill the surrounding enemy troops.

Soon, Xu Chu died, and his arms and thighs were chopped by Liu Beijun.

At this critical juncture, Cao Hong led the remnant army and plunged in, blocking the enemy army surrounding Xu Chu.

"Zhongkang quickly take the lord away, don't stay here!!"

Hearing this, Xu Chu took a deep look at Cao Hong, and then without hesitation, rushed straight into the bloody road that the soldiers had killed with their lives.

On the other hand, Cao Cao closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look at Cao Hong, but the tears from the corners of Cao Cao's eyes still flowed unconsciously.

"Kill! If you want to chase after my lord, then step over Cao Hong's corpse!!"

And Liu Bei, who was standing on the top of the hill, was a little anxious when he saw this scene, and turned his head to ask Tai Shici with a calm face.

"Brother Ziyi, I would like to trouble you to go after Cao Cao. Xu Chu is so brave, only Ziyi can fight against him! Now that Xu Chu is injured and wants to protect Cao Cao, he must not be Ziyi's opponent. I hope Ziyi will help me !"

Speaking of this, Liu Bei paused, afraid that Tai Shici would refuse, so he spoke again.

"Now that Cao Cao has been cornered by us, we must not let Cao Cao escape. Killing Cao Cao is a great feat. Don't Ziyi want to use this credit to seal his wife and son?!"

Tai Shici shook his head resolutely when he heard the words, and said to Liu Bei calmly.
