Cao Cao's army approached from afar.
Liu Bei's men had also dug up the dam upstream.
The water level of the river gradually rose, and it was impossible to cross the river by horse.
If they wanted to cross the river, they could only cross the Dangyang Bridge.
Seeing Cao Cao's army approaching, Zhang Fei ordered his thirty men to split into two teams.
She cut off branches and tied them to her ponytail, dragging them back and forth behind the mountain.
It raised yellow dust all over the sky, creating the illusion that there were many people.
Then, he and his horse held the eighteen feet Snake Spear and stood at the head of Dangyang Bridge.
Cao Cao's army arrived and saw this situation. They suspected that there was an ambush, so they only confronted Zhang Fei by the river.
Cao Cao hurried over on his yellow horse.
Cao Xiu stepped forward and said,"
"Prime minister, that Liu Bei has already crossed the Dangyang Bridge.”
"Prime Minister, please take a look. The yellow dust is rolling behind the mountain. There seems to be an ambush.”
Cao Cao put his hand on the awning and looked into the distance. Indeed, there was yellow dust rising.
Zhang Fei was extremely violent. Riding on his black horse, he stood at the bridgehead and pointed his Snake Spear at the opposite side, cursing,
"Hey! Cao Cao on the other side, listen carefully!"
"Your Third Master Zhang is here. Advance or retreat?"
There was only Dangyang Bridge above the river.
On the other side of the bridge, there was another ambush.
The archers had yet to arrive, so the Cao army was not in a hurry to attack.
Seeing this, Zhang Fei cursed again,"You don't attack, you don't fight, you don't advance, you don't retreat. You're just a bunch of commoners!"”
Then, he laughed out loud.
The water level rose, and the pier of Dangyang Bridge was torn down in half. With a loud bang, Cao Jun retreated in fear.
Zhang Fei laughed loudly again, his voice shaking the surroundings!
The pier of the Dangyang Bridge could not withstand the erosion of the river water and finally collapsed with a loud bang amidst Zhang Fei's laughter!
Cao Cao's generals were very unhappy.
However, now that the bridge had collapsed and the water level had risen, they could no longer cross the bridge.
Right at this moment, a scout came over. She quietly whispered a few words into Xu Chu's ear.
Xu Chu nodded and quickly leaned closer to Cao Cao's ear, telling him the news in a low voice.
"My lord, Zhang Juanyi's subordinates have captured Liu Bei's family.”
"Madam Gan, Madam Mo, and Liu Bei's youngest son have all been captured!”
When Cao Cao heard this, the gloominess on his face was swept away!
Two red clouds appeared on his face.
"Pass on my orders, retreat!"
Cao Cao didn't hesitate at all. He turned his horse around and galloped away.
Xu Chu led the Tiger Guard Battalion and quickly followed.
After that, the black mass of tens of thousands of soldiers disappeared in an instant!
Only Zhang Fei was left laughing at the bridgehead.
Seeing Zhang Fei's bravery, the 30 or so riders bowed and said,""The Third General is truly a celestial!"
When Zhang Fei heard this, he became even more pleased. He laughed and said,
"Although the Cao bandits have millions of people, they are nothing in front of me, Zhang Yi De!”
His followers echoed.
After that, they threw away the tree branch and went to Dangyang to chase after Liu Bei.
…………
Tang Long could not stand such a high-intensity march.
He had never expected that the Fire Head Camp would also have to follow the desperate march.
Cao Cao was bent on capturing Lady Gan to annoy Liu Bei.
Therefore, they were more than ten days away from the infantry.
The battle at the front was still ongoing, and orders were constantly being sent back to the Fire Head Camp, the rear troops, and the grain and baggage troops to quickly catch up.
Otherwise, he will be punished according to military law.
"Sigh…It's also my own mouth that's cheap. Why did I have to give Old Cao such a bad idea?”
"I'm almost exhausted from traveling every day!”
"I wonder if Old Cao has caught Mrs. Gan.”
It was not the first time Tang Long had ridiculed himself during the march.
Because Cao Cao had sent tens of thousands of cavalry to pursue Liu Bei.
In order to speed up, each person brought two horses.
Therefore, even the surplus horses of the Fire Head Camp were requisitioned.
Only a few horses were left pulling the cooking utensils.
Tang Long's legs were also filled with lead, and his feet were blistered.
At this moment, a carriage carrying cooking utensils was slanted to the side of the road.
"My lord! Milord, this carriage is broken again."
When Tang Long heard that, he was even more anxious.
He squatted beside the carriage and took a look.
"Didn't this car just get repaired? Why is it broken again?"
"Sigh, this is already the fifth one," the station chief said helplessly.”
"A few cars break down every day. At this rate, I'm afraid we won't be able to reach Changban slope on time!”
Xu Liang, who was beside him, snorted and said,""Hmph, if we can't arrive on time and delay the opportunity, some people will be punished by military law!”
Tang Long felt that his words were harsh.
"Uncle Xu, don't make sarcastic remarks. We won't be able to escape the blame when the time comes." The station chief said helplessly.”
"What a joke!" Xu Liang snorted coldly.
"I'm not the chief officer, nor am I the supervisor. What does it have to do with me?”
"There are some people who pass down military orders with empty words, delaying and slacking off will delay the opportunity.”
"With these two charges, I'm afraid that even if I don't die, I'll lose a layer of skin.”
Tang Long seemed to have understood.
He stared coldly at Xu Liang and said,"
"Xu Liang, it turns out that you were the one who secretly damaged the carriage and deliberately caused the Fire Head Camp to delay the military aircraft in order to frame me, right?”
Xu Liang saw Tang Long's cold gaze and felt a chill down his spine.
He did not dare to look Tang Long in the eye.
He turned his gaze to the side and said,"Aiyo, it's really a big job. However, you've wronged me. If you want to frame me, you have to show evidence.”
"Otherwise, even if you report this to the Prime Minister, you won't have a good ending.”
"You have to know that my brother is a hot figure beside the prime minister!”
"At that time, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear the consequences!”
The station chief was sandwiched between Tang Long and Xu Liang, and no one dared to provoke him.
Thus, he could only say,
"Milord, please calm down. Uncle Xu, you should speak less. If you are punished, you and I will be implicated!”
However, Xu Liang was not afraid of boiling water. Station commander, don't forget that I've been in the Fire Head Camp for five years.”
"The station chief changed a few times like a lantern, but Master Xu remained unmoved and sat firmly on the position of uncle. I believe you also know the profundity.”
"Aren't you the one who relied on General Xu Chu's power to intimidate others?" The station chief finally couldn't hold it in any longer.”
Xu Liang smiled and said, That's right, it's a fox using the tiger's might!"
"But, do you have the life of Master Xu?”
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll make sure you don't have this life!" Tang Long stood up.”
