Chapter 442
The sudden shocking change immediately made Cao Jun at a loss.

All the generals under Cao Cao's command were frightened and angry, Cao Hong and other relatives rushed forward on horseback, and panicked even more when they saw the trembling sharp arrow behind Cao Cao's back!

"Lord!"

Cao Hong and others dismounted from their horses. At this time, Cao Cao was so angry that he was in a very bad state. He passed out without any reaction!

"The most urgent task is to put the Lord's safety first, and withdraw the troops back to the camp!"

Cao Ren quickly calmed down, and temporarily assumed the position of commander-in-chief. He ordered Wang Yanzhang to protect Cao Cao and return to the camp, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to withdraw their troops.

The sword gate was closed, and after Zhang Yi shot his arrow, he saw Cao Cao's arrow fell off his horse, surrounded by Cao's army for rescue, and then he couldn't see anything.

However, he looked overjoyed. According to his estimation, Cao Cao would be seriously injured even if he did not die.

Without Cao Cao as the backbone, none of the generals in Cao's camp would have the courage to waste their troops and fight them to the end.

Yan Yan on the other side didn't know that such a major event had happened in just a short moment. He was still leading the troops to resist Yang Xuangan and Cao's soldiers who were constantly attacking upwards.

Zhang Ren also reacted quickly, and immediately rushed over to help with a gun.

I saw afterimages flashed by, the bewitching blood flowers bloomed to the extreme, and the soldiers of Cao Jun who had just climbed up the city wall wiped their necks and fell down in disbelief.

Yang Xuangan didn't know the news that Cao Cao had been hit by an arrow in the back and was seriously injured, so he still used a thunder knife to kill all directions.

Although Yan Yan didn't take the initiative to fight with him, he was still forced to retreat by Yang Xuangan's ferocious attack, and his soldiers suffered a lot.

If it weren't for the desperate efforts of these soldiers, Yan Yan might be beheaded by Yang Xuangan at any time.

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a sudden sound of the gong, and Yang Xuangan, who was still on the top of the city, changed his face suddenly when he heard it.

He is confident that as long as he fights fiercely for a few more hours, he will be able to capture Guanlou and lead the soldiers to fight Yan Yan head-on.

But why at this critical time, the camp behind him actually retreated in Mingjin.

The military orders were like a mountain, and although Yang Xuangan had 1 reluctances in his heart, he still ordered the soldiers to retreat with a livid face.

He was very angry, and the thunder knife slashed out, causing blood to splatter.

The Yizhou army who came up to attack him were also chopped off by Yang Xuangan with several spears.

Furious, he slashed at Yan Yan with a knife. Although Yan Yan escaped by chance, he also cut the flag with the thick mouth of the bowl next to him in half, and the huge temperament fell straight down the tower.

"Boom boom boom!"

Yang Xuangan still wanted to take advantage of the momentum to pursue, but the beeping sound from behind became more frequent and intense, as if conveying some bad news.

Yang Xuangan could only grit his teeth and sigh secretly.

Seeing that the soldiers of Cao's army around him were almost evacuated, Yang Xuangan waved his sword to force the Yizhou army back. He quickly found a ladder and flew out, lying on the ladder and sliding down quickly.

The natural danger of Jianmen Pass, in front of Yang Xuangan, only needs a ladder to walk on the ground.

Seeing such a shocking scene, Yan Yan, who escaped by chance, panted heavily and was still terrified.

Cao Jun retreated quickly, just like the tide of the sea. The tens of thousands of troops who were so crowded just now that there was no open space under the Jianmen Gate all retreated in a panic.

"With a sharp sword like Yang Xuangan, why did Cao Cao suddenly withdraw his troops?"

Yan Yan was puzzled, he leaned against the city wall with excessive force and watched the retreating Cao Jun, and it was too late to rejoice that they held on again.

"Old General, Bandit Cao was shot by my arrow, I'm afraid he's going to die and the sword gate is closed!"

At this moment, Zhang Ren ran over a few steps and shouted excitedly at Yan Yan.

"What did you say? Cao Cao was shot by you, you may be sure?"

Yan Yan was both surprised and happy, and the Yizhou soldiers next to him looked at Zhang Ren in the same amazement, with disbelief in their eyes and a strong expectation.

"I saw with my own eyes that Bandit Cao was shot in the back by my arrow and fell off the horse. I have exhausted all my strength, and the sharp arrow is not restrained by the armor at all. Even if Bandit Cao is not dead, he must be seriously injured and unconscious now."

Zhang Ren was very sure of his arrows. His archery skills were superb, and he was condescending at such a short distance to attack. Although Cao Cao was protected by armor, it was absolutely impossible to escape.

"If this is really the case, the general has done a great job."

When Yan Yan heard Zhang Ren's swearing answer, she was so excited that tears filled her eyes, and she couldn't help saying in a trembling voice.

He didn't doubt Zhang Ren's words, otherwise Cao Jun would never have suddenly withdrawn his troops after charging countless lives to the city wall.

If Cao Cao was really shot to death by Zhang Renyi's arrow, he would be famous all over the world with his outstanding achievements.

But now that Cao's army has no leader, there will be chaos, and all kinds of contradictions in peacetime will appear.

Especially because Cao Cao was in his prime of life, he did not decide on a successor. After Cao Ang, Cao Pi, Cao Zhang and other brothers heard the news, they would definitely think about fighting for power and profit. Cao Jun's civil and military officials would also attack and weaken each other for their own factions. The threat was completely lifted in an instant.

"If Cao Cao is really seriously injured or even died, we can double our military exploits!"

Zhang Ren glanced at Yan Yan, seemed to think of something, and said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, the more critical we are, the more we have to hold on. Wait until after dark to see if there is any news from Cao Ying, and it's not too late for us to think about it!"

Yan Yan was no longer the old man he was before, but he became energetic again, and he clenched his hands into fists and slammed on the city wall fiercely and said sharply.

Obviously, he also knew what Zhang Ren was thinking, but he was still very calm, suppressing the excitement in his heart, and prepared to observe the situation before deciding whether to take further action.

What's more, Cao Jun's attack just now also caused a great impact and casualties on them.

They had to hurry up and make repairs now, otherwise those wounded soldiers would have to aggravate their injuries when the temperature at Jianmen Pass was sweltering during the day and the cold temperature suddenly changed at night.

In the distance, Cao Jun's camp looked a little depressed.

From time to time, patrolling soldiers hurried past the camp, and everyone's expression was very heavy.

They all know that their lord, Cao Cao, was seriously injured by a surprise attack by the enemy generals, and there is no news of him being rescued yet.

Cao Cao is the pillar of Cao Jun. His fall made Cao Jun soldiers feel like the sky was about to fall, and everyone was full of sadness.

In Cao Cao's tent, there are heavy soldiers guarding it firmly.

The open space in front of the camp was already surrounded by Cheng Yu and others who were waiting anxiously.

No one knew the specific situation in the camp, only pots of blood were poured out continuously.

Cheng Yu's old face was full of wrinkles, his eyes and ears drooped, his eyes and ears drooped like fire, his face sank like water, and he kept complaining bitterly about the lack of protection of the generals for allowing Cao Cao to be attacked by someone in the army.

None of the generals dared to refute, even the rebellious Yang Xuangan was too nervous to speak.

Although the situation at the time was special, and it was not the first time that Cao Cao personally went into battle in order to motivate the army.

But none of them expected that Zhang Ren's archery skills would be so powerful that even Wang Yanzhang and other generals who were standing by were too late to guard against him.
