After hearing Bai Ren's words, Cao Hong was taken aback for a moment, looked at Bai Ren in surprise, hesitated for a while, and finally said to Bai Ren with some suspicion: "Zifu, are you serious?"

"Now that the Xiliang Army's tens of thousands of troops are approaching the city of Chang'an, do you think it is necessary for me to joke with you?" Bai Ren looked at Cao Hong in front of him, touched his chin, and said to Cao Hong in a heavy tone. .

Cao Hong listened to Bai Ren's words, looked at Bai Ren silently, thought for a while, and finally said to Bai Ren with a heavy tone: "Bai Zifu, I can't entrust these five thousand soldiers to you. Who will defend Tongguan, forgive me for being powerless!"

Cao Hong didn't lend troops to Bai Ren. First of all, the five thousand soldiers were Cao Hong's lifeblood. Five thousand soldiers are Cao Hong's amulet and the capital for Cao Hong to sit in the West.

"Don't lend me troops, Zilian, are you really going to do this?" Bai Ren listened to Cao Hong's words, thought for a while, and said to Cao Hong with a cold face, and then forcibly stopped the horse from moving forward.

Seeing Bai Ren like this, Cao Hong also stopped. At this moment, the atmosphere suddenly froze. Everyone turned their eyes to Cao Hong and Bai Ren. They looked like they were facing each other!

Looking at Bai Ren's appearance, Cao Hong's face became a little heavy, and he said to Bai Ren in a serious tone: "Bai Zifu, this soldier is going to guard Tongguan, even if you want to use it, you need the prime minister's order, otherwise I will Impossible to lend it to you!"

Bai Ren listened to Cao Hong's heavy words, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Cao Hong became smart even if he didn't find it, and knew to rely on Cao Cao to suppress him.

"You really think so. It looks like I have no choice but to do it!" Bai Ren stroked his chin, looked at Cao Hong with a heavy tone and said, and then slowly pulled out the sword from his waist.

At this time, there was a cold breath in the air, Bai Ren drew out his sword, a silver light flashed, and in the eyes of everyone, he pointed the sword in his hand at Cao Hong in the distance.

Cao Hong looked at Bai Ren's murderous face, and his expression became a little nervous. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said to Bai Ren in a hoarse voice: "Bai Zifu, do you want to rebel!"

"Rebellion, ha ha! That's not the case, I just want to get rid of a moth for the Prime Minister!" Bai Ren listened to Cao Hong's words, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then rode towards Cao Hong.

"General..." Looking at Bai Ren who made a sudden attack at this time, Xiang Cheng looked at Bai Ren who rushed over like lightning with a face of panic, and said in a hoarse tone.

At this time, Cao Hong's eyes widened, his pupils constricted. Looking at Bai Ren who was rushing over, he realized that it was too late to draw out his weapon, so he shouted hoarsely, "Bai Zifu, how dare you!"

"Go down!" Bai Ren rushed in front of Cao Hong, and instead of using his sword to deal with Cao Hong, he took the hilt in his hand and hit Cao Hong's back fiercely.

"Plop!" With a sound, Bai Ren knocked Cao Hong off his horse and let out a howl.

Bai Ren quickly jumped off his horse and came to Cao Hong who was lying on the ground. The sword in his hand was directly on Cao Hong's neck, which made Cao Hong on the ground break out in a cold sweat.

"Bai Zifu, you dare to treat me like this, the prime minister will not let you go!" Cao Hong felt a chill on his neck at this moment, and looked at the sword edge exuding a chill, and his face was a little scared Looking up at Bai Ren's gloomy face, she said in a somewhat angry tone.

"En!" Hearing Cao Hong's angry words, Bai Ren snorted indifferently, then pressed the sword in his hand close to Cao Hong's skin, with a sneer on his face.

Cao Hong suddenly felt a coldness in his neck, and realized that the sword in Bai Ren's hand had been attached to his neck. Suddenly, his whole body trembled involuntarily, his eyes widened, and he looked at Bai Ren in panic, never again. Dare to say a word.

The surrounding soldiers saw that their general was being controlled by others right under their noses, and immediately took up their weapons, and looked at Bai Ren in panic, but they didn't dare to move when they saw the sword in Bai Ren's hand.

"General, you let General Cao go and don't let the prime minister know. I'm afraid the general will have a hard time!" Xiang Cheng also got off his horse and came to Bai Ren's side, and said to Bai Ren in a heavy tone , After finishing speaking, he wanted to grab Bai Ren's sword.

"Get out of the way!" Bai Ren kept squinting at Xiang Cheng coldly, watching Xiang Cheng want to snatch the sword from his hand, he clenched his other hand into a fist, and then waved it at the approaching Xiang Cheng past.

Looking at Bai Ren's suddenly waving fist, Xiang Cheng was startled. He stepped back quickly, looked at Bai Ren with a cold gaze, and looked at Bai Ren with a rigid gaze. With a cold killing intent.

"General! You're not good!" Xiang Cheng looked at Bai Ren with a wry smile, and said to Bai Ren with a serious expression.

"Wang Meng, watch this guy for me!" Bai Ren looked at Xiang Cheng with cold eyes, and said in a hoarse voice to Wang Meng who was beside him.

After listening to Bai Ren's words, Wang Meng looked at Xiang Cheng beside him with a cold expression on his face.

"Offended!" Seeing that the situation on the scene was becoming more and more uncontrollable, Xiang Cheng said coldly to Bai Ren and Wang Meng, and quickly pulled out his sword from his waist.

"I'm afraid you won't succeed!" Wang Meng watched Xiang Cheng pull out the sword, his face suddenly became gloomy, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he also pulled out the sword from his waist.

Bai Ren looked at the tense atmosphere on the field, slowly looked at Cao Hong who was lying on the ground without saying a word, and said to Cao Hong in a gentle tone: "General Zilian, I don't want to make things big, You should follow me! Hand over the soldier talisman of Tongguan!"

Seeing Bai Ren's appearance, Cao Hong gritted his teeth, and slowly moved his hand to his lower body, then took out the tiger talisman and placed it on the ground.

Bai Ren chuckled, seeing Cao Hong's displeased expression, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said with some pride in his heart: "You say no, but you are quite honest in your heart!"

Chapter 5 Ninety

In the depths of a desert, a general in black armor is leading his cavalry on a long journey. Their goal is very simple, to reach the place where the Xiliang Army stored the food, and then take the food stored by the Xiliang Army. Food, all destroyed in one fell swoop.

As the saying goes, people are iron and rice is steel. When marching and fighting, it is food and grass that come first, not to mention the huge Xiliang army.

Back then, Cao Cao burned all of Yuan Shao's food and grass, which eventually caused Yuan Shao's army to be confused. Yuan Shao had no choice but to fight Cao Cao to the death.

It's a pity that he fell for Cao Cao's strategy, which eventually led to the defeat of the entire Yuan family in Hebei. In the end, Cao Cao annexed Hebei and became the number one prince in the world.

But now that Bai Ren wanted to defeat the Xiliang Army, which outnumbered him in terms of numbers, he knew of course that he had to attack from other angles, so he specially sent people to investigate the place where the Xiliang Allied Army stored food.

So Bai Ren decided to cut off the enemy's grain road first, and specially sent Zhang Liao, who was good at sneak attacks, to lead [-] cavalry to attack the enemy's grain storage.

"General, Wen Yuan has been gone for almost half an hour!" At this time, Wang Meng was standing beside Bai Ren, holding a rope in his hand, and the one tied to the rope was Cao Hong, who had been controlled by Bai Ren.

Bai Ren turned his head and just saw Cao Hong with resentful eyes, then he turned his head silently and stopped looking at Cao Hong, and said calmly to Gao Lan, "It's almost time, go spread rumors! Send people to Xiliang Daying, saying that Ben will lead people to raid the place where Xiliang stores grain and grass."

"Yes!" Gao Lan listened to Bai Ren's words. Although he didn't understand why Bai Ren did this, he obediently sent someone to promote it.

"Zi Fu, what is your plan?" Zhong Yao, who was on the side, kept looking at Bai Ren, and asked Bai Ren silently after hearing Bai Ren's words.

Bai Ren chuckled, looked at Zhong Yao with a sneer on his face, and replied to Zhong Yao in a calm tone: "I think sometimes the best way to attack the enemy is to use two prongs. When we went back to help, it was the time when our army began to massacre the Xiliang army!"

Zhong Yao listened to Bai Ren's words, looked at Bai Ren's murderous expression, and suddenly felt chills all over his body, then silently looked at Cao Hong with a melancholy expression, thought for a while, and shook his head helplessly .

The time was fast, and Gao Lan was also very efficient in doing things. He quickly spread the news that Bai Ren wanted to spread to the entire Xiliang Camp.

"Father! Father!" At this time, Ma Tie, the son of Ma Teng, came to his father's big tent with a nervous expression on his face. Seeing that his father was resting, he hurriedly shouted to his father.

"What's the matter? Could it be that the enemy is attacking?" Ma Teng silently got up from his couch, looked at Ma Tie with a nervous face, and asked Ma Tie with a strange expression.

Ma Tie looked at his father's appearance, and said to his father with a heavy tone: "Father, I just got the news that Bai Ren led the troops out of Chang'an City, and seemed to be heading west. It seemed that he was going to go to our army's food reserves. land, so as to cut off our army's food road!"

After listening to Ma Tie's words, Ma Teng stared at Ma Tie with wide eyes, thought for a while, looked at Ma Tie with some hesitation and asked, "Where did you get this news from?"

"I heard it from the soldiers!" Ma Tie replied calmly to his father like a good baby.

"Is this true or not? You can't believe rumors!" Ma Teng thought for a while, and finally said to Ma Tie with a heavy tone.

Hearing his father's words, Ma Tie asked Ma Teng with a heavy tone: "Father, if this is true, if it is true, then our army has no food and grass, what should we do?"

"Let's go, let's take a look!" Ma Teng listened to Ma Tie's words, silently changed into his own clothes, put on a suit of armor, then said to Ma Tie in a heavy tone, and then walked out of the big tent.

In a remote place, Ma Teng and Ma Tie were silently looking at the horseshoe marks left on the ground, and watched the horseshoe marks heading westward.

At this moment, Ma Teng's complexion changed drastically. Originally, he thought that the news spread just now was just a rumor spread by Bai Ren, in order to disturb the morale of his own army, but now that Ma Teng saw the imprint of the horse's hoof, he suddenly felt that the situation was not good. .

"Father, it seems to be true!" Ma Tie at the side looked at his father's heavy face, and said to Ma Teng in a cautious tone.

Ma Teng frowned when he heard this, finally gritted his teeth, and said to Ma Tie in a heavy tone: "I will take [-] cavalry under my command to rescue food and grass, and you will stay in the barracks for the time being!"

"Yes! Father!" Hearing Ma Teng's words, Ma Tie said to Ma Teng with a heavy tone, and then followed Ma Teng to the barracks.

"Boom!" The ground-shaking sound rang out, and Bai Ren stood silently on the top of the city wall, watching the Xiliang cavalry marching towards the west, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
