"Ah ~!" Xiahou Dun's mournful roar echoed in the sky like a tiger's roar. The third eye in his nose was bleeding nonstop, dyeing his entire face red. From then on, there would no longer be a one-eyed blind Xiahou in history. There would be a three-eyed general, Xiahou Dun.
Many years later, when the world was settled, some military schools who had retired from the war would tell their grandchildren about the situation at that time." General Cheji, with his heroic talent, stood alone on the battlefield. Although he was injured by the enemy, he still fought in the front line. He first repelled the strong enemy and supported Liu Bei to help His Majesty reverse the decline and restore the world. His chronic illness took half a year to recover. It was not only due to the weather, but also due to human strength.”
If the commander was injured, the morale of the army would be in chaos! Gao Shun was a brave and resourceful general, how could he not understand the logic behind this? He first turned his head and nodded slightly at Cao Xing, who had injured Xiahou Dun with an arrow. Then, he waved his hand and said,"Kill them!"
The enemy's drums thundered as Gao Shun's army split into several formations and slowly advanced forward, preparing to counterattack. Cao Ang, Li Dian, Cao Hong, Lu Qian, Gan Ning, and the others had all arrived. Li Dian supported Xiahou Dun, who was bleeding profusely, and the others protected him as they retreated. Li Dian sighed as he watched Gao Shun's army advance."What a good Gao Shun! As expected, slowly pressing down and pressing in step by step is actually more likely to lower the morale of our army than charging at them with all their might…" Then, he turned to Lu Qian and said," The army will retreat for now. You lead your men to cover the rear. Remember not to let them chase after us."”
Then, he turned to Cao Ang and the others and said,""Let's bring our men and return to the west quickly. We'll deal with it after we meet up with the lord's troops.”
"Don't retreat!" Xiahou Dun suddenly straightened up, his face covered in blood like the sunset." This is the first battle of the Eastern Expedition! He couldn't retreat! If you retreat, Xiaopei will not be rewarded, and Xuzhou will certainly become a corner of the enemy! We can't retreat!"
" But, General!" Li Dian was about to say something when Xiahou Dun shouted,""I am the commander in chief here! If I lose! Then there will be a general here! When was it your turn to speak!" Li Dian looked anxious. He could only look at Cao Ang, begging him to speak up.
When Cao Ang said these words, everyone was speechless. Only Xiahou Dun stared at him with bright eyes and said,""Well said!" After saying that, he tore off a close-fitting cloth robe from the seams of his leg armor and slanted it over the wound, only revealing one eye. He looked at the Gao Shun Cavalry that was only fighting but not directly clashing. When he saw an opportunity, he pounced into the formation and bit them. Seeing that they were about to be surrounded, he immediately fled. "Kill him!" Xiahou Dun said in a deep voice. Kill our way back!"
Cao Ang said in a low voice," No matter what, uncle is already injured, and it will affect our morale. The only thing we can do now is to lead the central army and stabilize our morale. Ang will lead the General Advisor's Guard Camp to charge over and kill the general to seize the flag to boost our morale.”Li Dian said,"If that's the case, it's dangerous.""General, I am the leader of the Army Guard Camp. As long as I lead the army to break through the formation, I will be able to display my greatest strength! Cao Ang is confident in restoring morale!"
Xiahou Dun's blood was still flowing non-stop. His body was still on the verge of collapse, but he still stood on his horse and said,""You can go! This general will command the generals here to support you!”"Take care, Uncle!" Cao Ang said in a deep voice.”Then, he waved his three-pointed double-edged sword and his troops followed him to charge forward.
"Gan Ning! The outcome of this battle is in our hands! I'll let you be the vanguard and lead my 3,000 cavalrymen to attack! Can you do it?" Gan Ning laughed heartily and waved his saber."Don't worry! Leave this matter to me!"
Seeing Gao Shun's army getting closer and closer, Cao Ang shouted,"Teacher Guards Camp! Charge!" With a command, three thousand cavalrymen covered the earth like dark clouds and instantly charged into the enemy formation. With just one wave of attacks, hundreds of Gao Shun soldiers fell into a pool of blood.
Gan Ning brandished his broadsword and killed more than a dozen people in a row, instantly boosting morale. "Good!" Cao Ang shouted. Infantry, follow me! flatten Gao Shun's camp!"
"Dong ~ dong ~ dong ~" The drums of the Cao army's rear suddenly sounded. Gao Shun raised his head and looked over, his heart trembling. Looking at the people in the distance who were constantly waving their arms and beating the drums, Gao Shun said in surprise,"Wenyuan, who do you think that is?" Zhang Liao immediately looked in the direction Gao Shun was pointing at. After a while, he heard him sigh,""Amazing, really amazing!”
The drummer's face was covered in blood, and he wore a silk scarf on his head. He was particularly eye-catching in the open field. Xiahou Dun was personally beating the drum to help! At first, the Cao army was timid because of the injury of their general. Now, under Xiahou Dun's brave drumbeats, it gradually disappeared, turning into a dull and somber atmosphere.
"Kill them!" The 20,000-man army division split up and attacked Gao Shun's army. The 3,000 cavalry was led by Gan Ning, and the archers were led by Shi Huan. Cao Ang led Dian Man, Xu Yi, and the infantry to charge into the enemy camp, while Cao Hong, Li Dian, and the others led the remaining soldiers to charge in all directions.
Cao Ang aimed at the direction of the flag and roared as he charged forward. He swung his three daggers and killed the enemies in front of him one by one. In the chaos, his well-prepared learning and long period of hard training finally showed results. His warhorse stepped over countless corpses and continuously wedged into Gao Shun's flag.
Gao Shun watched the battle on the field with an indifferent expression. He wasn't the least bit flustered by the enemy's tenacity. He looked at the unstoppable Gan Ning and his eyes darkened."Such a battle general cannot be indulged! Wen Yuan, go and deal with this person. Don't let him act recklessly.”Zhang Liao nodded and left with his troops.
"General! Your injuries are too serious. Let us do it. You should rest!”Looking at Xiahou Dun, whose battle robes were already stained with blood, the drumming soldiers beside him sounded like they were crying. Xiahou Dun did not stop beating his drumsticks." Get lost!" If you want to die, then die. Even if you want to die, die in Little Pei City!”
"Sou!" In the chaotic battle, a hidden arrow was shot at Cao Ang, who was fighting bravely. Xu Yi, who was behind him, stretched out his hand and the arrow pierced through his arm and firmly landed on Xu Yi's arm. Xu Yi's face was pale, but he did not cry out in pain. He just coldly looked at the general who shot the hidden arrow.
Cao Ang looked at the arrow that had pierced through Xu Yi's arm and then looked up coldly at the general." Who are you?!"”The general tilted the bow in his hand to the side and picked up the spear hanging on the horse. He smiled coldly and said,"I am Cao Xing, a subordinate of Marquis Wen."
"Cao Xing!" Cao Ang felt as if a stone had been stuffed into his chest. It was extremely uncomfortable." You were the one who shot General Xia Hou, weren't you?”Cao Xing shook his head and said,""Compared to him, you are much luckier.”
"Thief, how dare you!" With a roar that shook the sky, Cao Ang charged at Cao Xing with the tri-point knife in his hand. Cao Xing laughed out loud and then stabbed the spear at Cao Ang's chest.
In Cao Ang's eyes, the tip of Cao Xing's spear was much larger than the small seal script that was usually written with an iron brush. With a light wave of his hand, the saber and spear collided with each other, and Cao Ang easily blocked Cao Xing's spear.
The sharp eyesight and strong wrist strength that he had trained every day while forging the spearhead, coupled with the dexterity and dexterity of the iron brush when writing the small seal characters, Cao Ang almost subconsciously tilted his body and stabbed the three sharp knives into the opponent's chest first.
Cao Xing was in disbelief. How could such a young general be so powerful? He had actually defeated him in two moves. However, there was no time to think. Cao Xing's body leaned back and fell off the horse. Then, there was no more sound.
"General…" Dian Man looked at Cao Ang in surprise. When did General become so powerful? Cao Ang frowned slightly, then shook his head and said,"Such a person can also fight as a general?”Then he continued to charge forward.
At noon, the sun rose even higher. Scorching golden light shone on the ground. Xiahou Dun still gritted his teeth and persevered. The war drums rumbled like muffled thunder. At this moment, Gao Shun's iron-like battle formation finally began to waver. The morale of the Cao army grew higher and higher. The shouts of battle shook the sky and earth as they gradually surged toward Gao Shun's stronghold like a tide.
Lu Bu trusted Gao Shun very much. Not only did he hand over the military power to Gao Shun to command the army, but he also used his favorite general Zhang Liao. Just based on this point, Gao Shun was absolutely not someone who could be easily defeated.
Gao Shun finally frowned for the first time as he watched the Cao Army's morale rise and Zhang Liao's battle with Gan Ning.”
Not long after Gao Shun's order was given, a troop of about a thousand armored infantrymen slowly walked out from the middle army. Eight hundred Breaking Ranks! Gao Shun also held his spear and followed the soldiers that he had personally trained into the battlefield. He said coldly,""Release the arrows!"
The 800 Breaking Ranks were divided into four teams and shot out their arrows one by one. The arrows rained down rapidly and almost all of them hit the target. Immediately, the Cao troops at the front line fell in groups, and painful wails filled the surroundings.
The Breaking Ranks Army kept their bows and weapons and began to advance step by step. When they saw the first wave of Cao Cao's cavalry, they saw that these 800 soldiers cooperated with each other. Those with knives cut off the horse's legs, those with spears stabbed into the horse's rider, and some with shields blocked the cavalry's attack in pairs. In an instant, a large number of Cao Cao's elite cavalry were killed!
"Gao Shun! Breaking Ranks Camp!" This was the first time Cao Ang had seen such a powerful infantry. He looked at the Breaking Ranks who were at the front and Gao Shun who was at the back. In this battlefield where tens of thousands of people were fighting, he was unstoppable. It was hard to imagine that an army of less than 1,000 people could actually influence the outcome of the battle!
Gradually, the Cao army's counterattack was reduced by the appearance of the Breaking Ranks Camp. The two armies were at a stalemate again, but Xiahou Dun could no longer hold on. The drumstick that he usually did not care about was so heavy in his hand. However, Xiahou Dun knew that if he fell in front of the army at this moment, the consequences would be dire. He would never allow this! It turned out that mental power could also be so powerful!
"Kill them!" A heaven-shaking roar suddenly sounded from afar. A group of soldiers came from behind Gao Shun's army. The three people in the lead held a double-edged sword in their hands. They wore yellow armor and purple robes, and had thick eyebrows and bright eyes. The two people behind him, one green and one black, were like two afterimages. Wherever the Green Dragon Crescent Blade and the 18-foot-long Gang Dian Spear passed, the three armies avoided them and could not advance.
"Liu Bei!" A trace of surprise flashed across Gao Shun's face, and then his expression darkened as he muttered to himself softly,""Good! Very good! Thief, you're finally out!" Cao Ang's heart tightened as killing intent flashed in his eyes. He bit his lips and said,"Liu Xuande! You didn't come earlier or later, but you just had to arrive after Gao Shun left the Breaking Ranks Camp. You're amazing!”
