The two of them fought for twenty rounds, and the sound of hooves behind Zhang Wu could be heard.
It turned out that Zhang Wu's horse was fast, leaving the main army far behind. At this moment, Cao Cao's cavalry had arrived, and Lu Bu did not dare to continue fighting. He turned his horse and left.
The 400-pound spear smashed against the halberd without any restraint. At this moment, Lu Bu's hands were trembling. He was truly afraid.
"Don't leave, Lu Bu. Do you dare to fight me, Dian Wei, for 300 rounds?”Dian Wei rode out, but Lu Bu was afraid of Zhang Wu and did not dare to respond. Dian Wei could not catch up with him and had to give up.
When the Western Liang army wanted to drive away the civilians, most of them were scattered into small groups. The Cao army chased them down and killed more than a thousand enemies. All the Western Liang soldiers were beheaded and hung on their horses.
Cao Cao rushed to a canyon near the Bian River in Xingyang. He wanted to continue his pursuit, but was stopped by Zhang Wu.
"My lord, please send out scouts to observe first.”
Cao Cao was surprised." Since when did Ziqian become so cautious? Dong Zhuo is now a stray dog. He must not have the heart to set up an ambush."”
Zhang Wu didn't know what Dong Zhuo was thinking, but he knew that the feudal lords 'crusade against Dong Zhuo had ended with the defeat of Cao Cao's ambush. Moreover, Boss Cao was famous for being a jinx. When the Red Cliff army was defeated, he called anyone to come. Now that he was so confident, Zhang Wu was even more certain that he would soon be slapped in the face by Zhen Xiang's theorem.
"My lord, have you heard that a proud army will be defeated?"
Cao Cao was one of the most outstanding military strategists in the late Han Dynasty. Since Zhang Wu had already said this, he naturally would not act willfully and immediately sent out scouts.
Four hours had passed, but the scouts still hadn't returned. In the valley in front of them, there wasn't even a single bird.
Boss Cao's face turned red. He thought that even a boorish man could see through the ambush, but he did not. He immediately felt a little embarrassed.
"Hehehe, Ziqian is so intelligent.”
"My lord, you flatter me."
After their tracks were exposed, the ambush troops no longer hid, and the bright chariots and horses blocked the Cao army's path.
The leader was eight feet tall and held a long sword in his hand. He rode his horse to the front of the formation and said,"Cao Mengde, this road is blocked.”
"Who are you?"
"Xuantu Xu Rong."
Xu Rong was a third-rate general who was defeated by Xiahou Dun in three to five rounds in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He was a super fierce person who had defeated Cao Cao and Sun Jian in history.
Hearing this name, Zhang Wu's interest was piqued.
"System, scan Xu Rong."
Name: Xu Rong
[Strength: 79]
Commander: 96
Intelligence: 84
Political Affairs: 77
[Skills: 1. Military Formation: Commander 2 when facing the enemy.]
2.[Ambush: Intelligence 3 when setting up an ambush.]
Low-level martial arts and high-level system?
Putting Cao Cao aside, this was the only true Confucian general that Zhang Wu had ever seen.
This kind of person might not be able to lead an army to kill, but he could be the general of an army and lead three armies.
No wonder he could defeat Boss Cao and X Literature Channel in history.
"Cut the crap, Xuantu Xu Rong, do you dare to fight me, Chen Liu and Dian Wei?”
Dian Wei had been holding back his anger for not being able to catch up to Lu Bu. Now that the opportunity to make a contribution was right in front of him, how could he hold it in? He took the lead and charged out of the formation, heading straight for Xu Rong.
Xu Rong raised his long sword with one hand and drew a line in the air. The Western Liang army formation suddenly dispersed. When Dian Wei rushed over, the cavalrymen closed in to trap Dian Wei while the infantry blocked the Cao army from the outside.
"Square-circle Formation!" "Dian Wei, come back quickly!" Cao Cao was shocked.”
The Square Circle Formation lacked variations and had extremely poor offensive capabilities, but it was a famous defensive formation. Unless a large army was able to break through it, challenging the formation alone was nothing more than a fool's dream.
Zhang Wu patted the red steed lightly and walked to Cao Cao's side."My lord, do you know of Dian Wei's bravery?"
Cao Cao shook his head.”
"Now we have the chance to verify with our own eyes why the lord called him back.”
There were exceptions to everything. Zhang Wu did not understand formations and could not see through the so-called square formation.
However, he knew very well how fierce Dian Wei was. During the Battle of Wan City, when he was drunk and had lost his weapon, he had been able to take over an entire army with two people and successfully covered Cao Cao's retreat.
Moreover, Dian Wei now had a weapon in his hand and a horse on his back. There were only a handful of people in the world who could knock him off his horse.
In the formation, Dian Wei's two iron halberds moved quickly like two windmills, mercilessly harvesting the lives of the soldiers. They tore a hole in the dense cavalry and charged straight at Xu Rong.
Xu Rong retreated again and again and had already arrived at the periphery of the square array.
Without the command of the commander, the formation was like a soulless puppet. At this moment, it had already lost its ability to change and was completely reduced to a plate of loose sand.
"Dian Wei's bravery is like the resurrection of an ancient evil.”Cao Cao praised and immediately attacked.
The Western Liang army was defeated and the soldiers fled in all directions.
.........
Report!
The scout horse caught up to the emperor's carriage and got down on one knee.
"Reporting to the Prime Minister, Xu Rong's troops were defeated by Cao Cao.”
A corner of the Emperor's carriage was lifted, and Dong Zhuo stuck his head out with his fat body."Cao Cao, it's Cao Cao again. I wish I could eat his flesh and sleep with his skin. He ordered Li Wei and Guo Si to lead the Feixiong Army to the rear and urged the army to speed up.”
"Yes."
Returning to the carriage, Dong Zhuo found that the little Emperor's eyes had unconsciously revealed a trace of joy. He was instantly furious.
"Is Cao Cao happy that he defeated the Emperor?"
Liu Xie didn't dare to look at Dong Zhuo directly. He lowered his head, thinking about something.
"Hmph, does the Emperor think that Cao Cao is your loyal subject? Don't forget how you got the throne. Since I can help you sit on it, I can naturally pull you down.”
"Zhongfu is worrying too much. I... I have no other thoughts."
"That's for the best. I still have 400,000 Western Liang cavalry. With a flip of my hand, I can make Cao Cao die without a burial place.”
