Cao Ren saw that Cao Cao's expression was not good when he came out. He went up and asked in a low voice,""Eldest brother, what happened? Why did you leave for so long?”
"The Yuan family is a small family. They have no size and are high in the position of alliance leader. They don't think about fighting together and are determined to plot against their allies. If anything happens to Zi Jin, I will burn their bones and scatter their ashes. They will not die a good death! Alright, cut the crap. Let's go to Mushui Pass first and make plans later.”
Cao Cao was truly enraged this time.
In his view, Chen Tong was not only his sworn brother, but also a sharp blade given to him by the heavens to sweep the world.
Now that the Yuan Brothers had stabbed him in the back, it was as if the knife had stabbed him directly in the heart. How could he not be angry?
"Right, Eldest Brother, when Yuan Rang gathered the cavalry earlier, the soldiers of the West Camp all requested to fight.”
"West Camp? Wasn't that the battalion of surrendered Yellow Turban soldiers led by Zi Jin?”
Cao Ren had personally witnessed how Chen Tong trained his soldiers.
In this chaotic world, a general who could share good food and wine with his subordinates was enough to make his subordinates die for him. This was nothing strange.
"Big brother, if they want to go, then let them go. Even if they are waving flags and shouting behind the cavalry, it is still good.”
"Alright, these old Yellow Turban troops will temporarily be handed over to Zixiao as commander and leave the camp together.”
"Here!"
Cao Cao originally did not want to bring his infantry. Infantry moved slowly, and by the time they reached Mushui Pass, it would be too late.
However, it was precisely the Yuan brothers 'attitude that taught Cao Cao a truth: it was better to rely on oneself than to ask for help.
Although the alliance army had a total of eighteen towns, there was not a single town that could be relied on.
The hearts of people in troubled times really had no limits.
Even though the plan that Xi Zhong had given him was: Fight for merit, show your face, and work less.
However, Cao Cao realized that he was still too naive. At least, if he had to choose between benefiting others and harming others, he would choose the former without hesitation.
Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu told him,"We'd rather not take the credit, or let others steal the limelight."
If everyone in the Han Dynasty was like this, what hope would the Han Dynasty have?
..........
At the mouth of the water pass.
The fierce battle was still brewing.
Not only did the Liang soldiers charge, but in less than an hour, the thousand cavalry that Chen Tong had killed turned around and completely blocked Chen Tong's escape route.
However, Chen Tong had never intended to escape.
Time passed.
Two hours passed.
More and more corpses were floating in the doorway. The sticky blood gathered on the ground and formed a dark red stream that flowed into the distance.
The place where Chen Tong stood was like a natural moat. The Western Liang cavalry outside could not rush in, and the infantry inside could not rush out either.
Four hours.
The Black Dragon Halberd was still brandishing with all its might, its strength not decreasing at all.
To Chen Tong, he had already won.
No matter how the people of Liang struggled, Mushui Pass could no longer become a stronghold to protect Luoyang.
Without their general, they had no choice but to advance and retreat. They were only fighting based on their instincts.
Corpses piled up like a mountain at the city gate. If he wanted to close the gate, he had to clear all the corpses out first.
But they didn't have time.
Outside, Chen Tong saw Xiahou Dun leading his cavalry in a charge.
"Kill, kill your way in!"
Behind Xiahou Dun's 300 cavalrymen were the sweaty soldiers of the West Camp.
Further away, the dust was flying. It was the cavalry of the alliance army.
Cavalry couldn't outrun infantry?
What a ridiculous scene!
Chen Tong pulled the reins and pointed his dragon halberd at Deputy General Hua Xiong."You have no way out. Surrender.”
"Kill... If I kill you, I can still escape back to Tiger Cage Pass. It's useless to say more." The deputy general gritted his teeth, but he had no intention of surrendering.
Chen Tong understood.
Long before he went to battle in Huaxiong, Cao Cao had taught him about the military system of Xiliang. All military officers above the rank of lieutenant must have their families settled in Luoyang.
If one person rebelled, his whole family would be killed.
This was also the reason why Chen Tong did not waste his saliva to persuade Hwa Xiong to surrender.
Now that Chen Tong opened his mouth to persuade the deputy general to surrender, he was merely putting on a posture of accepting surrender.
It was difficult for the generals to surrender, but it did not mean that the soldiers were difficult to surrender.
These Western Liang cavalrymen were very brave. It would be a good thing to capture one more.
After lightly knocking the black-feathered horse's belly, a black shadow flashed and disappeared.
The halberd chopped down, and a headless corpse was added to the warhorse.
Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 2 fighter points.
Adding on the soldiers that he had killed before, Chen Tong had gained a lot from this battle. He had obtained a total of 11 fighter points. His balance broke through the double digits again, reaching 18.
"Listen up, throw away your weapons, and those who kneel will not be killed!”
The situation was hopeless.
The Western Liang cavalrymen no longer put up any resistance. They dismounted and knelt down.
Seeing this, Xiahou Dun flew to Chen Tong's side. When he saw the bloody scene in the doorway, even a fearless martial artist like Xiahou Dun could not help but gasp.
No matter what, he had killed at least a thousand people, right? It was no wonder that Liang was scared out of his wits.
Facing such a killing god, anyone would be terrified.
"Zijin, did you do all this?"
"How was it? You didn't embarrass our brothers, right?”
Xiahou Dun gave him a thumbs up. He was really brave and extraordinary. I'll enter the pass first. Be careful. The lord's face doesn't look good.”
Not long after Xiahou Dun left, he saw Cao Cao rushing over with Cao Ren.
"Chen Zijin!"
Chen Tong shrunk his neck.
"I'm not your big brother, you're the big brother! Who gave you the courage to charge into the city alone? The military order only told you to kill Hua Xiong, when did it tell you to seize Mushui Pass? If anything happens to you, how am I going to explain it to Ah Jin when I go back! Ah?"
"Big brother, please calm down. There were some military orders that generals did not accept outside. My hands are just itching for a moment.”
"Humph! The ancient sages also told you that military orders were like mountains, and anyone who disobeyed them would be beheaded! Why don't you learn? I won't use 'disobeying orders' to scare you. If you do this again, I'll replace Yuan Rang as the vanguard!”
"This is the only time! Next time, he would definitely listen to his big brother's instructions.”
"Go in and wash up. Your body is covered in blood.”
