The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

It was more than double the 5000 people last time, and they had enough confidence to face Liu Zheng's attack again, and they were not as panicked as last time.

Chapter 461 Acting according to plan

"What about the general? The enemy is rushing up?"

"Liu Zheng is really brave. He dared to charge at this time. He really thought we were afraid of him. Prepare to meet the enemy!"

Cheng Yu was silent for a while, and finally chose to fight Liu Zheng here.

A dense jungle hill.The champion's three-party army totaled 4 horses.Waiting for the battle, made a close formation arrangement, and began to prepare for the charge of Liu Zheng's army.

The officers and soldiers wanted to fight Liu Zheng, and Liu Zheng's morale was also high. Following the command of the general, the soldiers and horses in the forefront launched a charge, and a big battle broke out here in an instant.

Soon the soldiers and horses of the two sides fought together.The fierce shouts of killing echoed here. Although it was still three or five miles away from Shouchun City, the sound of the battle erupting here could still faintly reach Shouchun City.

After all, the distance of three to five miles seems to be a long way, but it is only a stick of incense.

The more than 1 people led by Liu Zheng were actually not afraid when faced with the encirclement of the 5000 army, even more so than the last time he faced the [-] troops led by Cao Hong and others. Much calmer.

In the last battle, after all, Liu Zheng was in a state of being ambushed.The soldiers and horses under his command were in panic at the critical moment, and it took him a long time to stabilize the morale of the soldiers and horses. At the same time, the morale of the soldiers and horses was not as high as this time, and all aspects of physical strength were at a disadvantage.

But this time was different. After two days of rest, Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses were at the moment of excitement after recharging their energy. Not only were their morale high, but all factors were at their peak.

Although facing more enemies than last time, Liu Zheng's condition is even better. With Liu Zheng's trust in them, even if the [-] enemy troops cannot be completely wiped out, they can definitely rely on these troops and them. Entangled, invincible.

After all, Liu Zheng never thought of using his own hands to kill 4 enemy troops. He only needs to kill these troops of Liu Dai's army.

As for whether he can kill the troops of the other two princes, he doesn't care, anyway, he still has a second hand.

At this time, it was near Shouchun City in Huainan.

Liu Zheng attracted 2 soldiers and horses. After evacuating from here, only [-] soldiers and horses were left in charge of the siege here.

Although there were only [-] soldiers and horses left, there was nothing to be afraid of Cao Cao, Liu Dai and other commanders stationed here. After all, Yuan Shu's army in the city only had [-] soldiers and horses.

Cao Cao and Liu Dai are not worried at all. Yuan Shu in the city will go out to fight them. Once Yuan Shu leaves the city, their soldiers and horses can suppress Yuan Shu with the fastest speed. Even if Yuan Shu leaves the city, it will make it easier for Cao Cao and Liu Dai Breaking through Shouchun City, thus defeating Yuan Shu with one sentence.

However, at this time, although Yuan Shu did not leave the city, another army came here.

Huang Zhongjun, who was separated from Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses.

Because they had a different purpose from Liu Zheng, the troops led by Huang Zhong did not take the same route as Liu Zheng. While Liu Zheng's army launched an attack, they successfully arrived at Shouchun City by taking a detour. another direction.

When Liu Zheng was fighting with the [-] troops, Huang Zhong approached the location of Shouchun Liu Dai's garrison and launched a surprise attack.

Less than 500 meters away from Liu Dai, Huang Zhong led the archers and sneaked into the vicinity of Shouchun City. After the enemy army entered the shooting range, he made a decisive decision and gave the order to shoot.

Liu Zheng had three battalions of soldiers and horses, and all the archers were brought here by Huang Zhong.

In an instant, the arrow flew into the sky at the moment Huang Zhong gave the order, and shot directly at Liu Dai's camp in the distance.

Liu Dai himself was still chatting with Cao Cao and Zhang Miao in the camp, talking about whether Liu Zheng would be defeated by his own troops in this battle.

They have great confidence that they can defeat Liu Zheng's more than [-] men, but at this moment, the sound of puff puff came, and there were even a few arrows on the camp, which broke through the walls of the camp. The leather door curtain shot into the camp.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

At this time, the people outside were in a mess. They didn't know what happened, so they could only call out. Liu Dai, Cao Cao, and Zhang Miao in the camp were suddenly surprised, and hurried out to check what happened.

When Liu Dai and the others saw another army of soldiers and horses approaching slowly not far from their camp, and kept shooting arrows, Liu Dai and the others were surprised.

He yelled out in horror.

"What's going on, where did this soldier come from, and who is it?"

Because of Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses, most of the officers and soldiers were transferred away, and there were fewer scouts, so Huang Zhong and others were able to get close for so long before they were discovered.

Obviously, when Liu Dai, Cao Cao and others saw Huang Zhong's army of thousands of soldiers and horses only a hundred meters away from their own side, they were very surprised and immediately went around to ask questions.

Fortunately, Cao Cao was present, and Cao Cao was still a relatively calm person. He didn't lose his position because of the surprise attack by Huang Zhong and others, and immediately yelled at Liu Dai.

"Zhou Mu, hurry up and gather your men to defend. Most of the enemy troops are shooters. Order people to charge. As long as they rush to the front, those people will not be able to cause harm to our army."

When Cao Cao saw Huang Zhong, although he didn't recognize Huang Zhong at first glance, he could tell from his attire that these people should belong to Liu Zheng.

In Cao Cao's heart, although he was surprised at how Liu Zheng had so many soldiers and horses, he didn't have time to think about it. While giving Liu Dai a suggestion of his own, on the other hand, he immediately left the camp and wanted to go Gather your own men and defend.

It doesn't matter if the camp is lost here, as long as it is enough to defend Shouchun, what he is worried about now is that if Yuan Shu in the city finds out that something is wrong because of the appearance of a soldier in Shouchun City, then Yuan Shu will He also sent soldiers and horses out to fight.

They were attacked in three places, but it was really bad.

So on the one hand, Cao Cao was going to guard Shouchun City, and on the other hand, it was convenient for Liu Dai to temporarily block Huang Zhong's men.

Liu Dai was obviously a little flustered at this time. He had never experienced this kind of battle formation. After being reminded by Cao Cao, he immediately began to follow Cao Cao's instructions and immediately dispatched all 6000 people near his camp to stop them. Huang Zhong amounted to these shooters.

The puff puff arrows kept shooting, and those Liu Dai army soldiers who were called to charge, although fearful in their hearts, could only obey their orders.

Chapter 462 Go From Here

Huang Zhong and Liu Zheng have different tasks. Liu Zheng's task is to attract attention.

As long as Liu Zheng appears, Cao Cao, Liu Dai and others will definitely face a formidable enemy. When they see Liu Zheng's powerful army, they will definitely send most of their troops to deal with Liu Zheng.

So Liu Zheng didn't confront them head-on at all, but turned around and left the moment he planned to fight.The purpose is to attract the officers and soldiers stationed near Shouchun to leave here, so as to create an excellent opportunity for Huang Zhong to attack.

And Huang Zhong did not disappoint Liu Zheng, and directly selected Liu Dai's camp as the target of the sneak attack.

Leading the troops of 1 people, they first shot two rounds of arrow rain, which directly scared Liu Dai into a panic. forward.

The shooters in the rear continued to shoot.

Each archer carries [-] arrows on his back, which is sufficient for [-] rounds of shooting, and the shooting of [-] archers, one round of arrow rain, is enough to deal a big blow to Liu Dai's [-] soldiers. up.

Shoot a few more rounds, six thousand soldiers and horses, and there are not many people who can stand and charge forward.

Of course, the battle between Huang Zhong and Liu Dai's army outside the city was in full swing, and the battle between Liu Zheng's army and the [-] soldiers and horses of the official army outside the city was also in full swing. Yuan Shu in Shouchun City was also alarmed.

When Liu Zheng's men appeared here, Yuan Shu had already received the news. He was pulled out by his subordinates and ran to the tower to watch what happened here.

"So we have reinforcements?"

Yuan Shu lay on the battlements far away, and took a look at the place where Huang Zhong's army and Liu Dai's army were fighting. The two sides fought fiercely, and the one-sided situation of Huang Zhong's army suppressed Liu Dai's troops, unable to advance at all.

Even if a few soldiers of Liu Dai's army rushed to Huang Zhong's front, they were quickly killed by Huang Zhong's infantry. Liu Dai's 6000 troops could not hold on any longer. Fortunately, Zhang Miao quickly summoned him. Only when more people came to help, could they hold off the attack of Huang Zhong and others.

"My lord, these people, although I don't know whose soldiers they are, they are defeating Liu Dai's people. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us."

Ji Ling still had some strategies. He was able to examine Duodu. At this time, the battle situation could be seen at a glance, and it was an excellent opportunity for them to break out of the city.

"Ji Ling, what do you mean? You want to open the city to fight those people outside the city?"

Yuan Shu asked tentatively.

Ji Ling nodded immediately.

"My lord, we have been besieged in Shouchun City for several days, and we don't know when our army in Runan will come to support us. If there is no turmoil this time, it may not take a few days. If we don't seize this opportunity to break through, once Liu Dai, Cao Cao and others leave the army and return, we may have no chance."

"However, we don't even know who these people who are fighting Liu Daijun are. If this is the opponent's scheme to trick us out of the city, wouldn't we be on the verge of death?"

Yuan Shu was a little too cautious, but he was still a little worried at this time, there were too many worries.

"Oh, my lord, if we stay here, we will only die. If we break through, there is still a glimmer of life. I don't think this is a conspiracy by the other party. If it is a conspiracy, the enemy's battle outside the city cannot be fake, Liu Thousands of people have died on Dai's side, could it be that they voluntarily killed or wounded thousands of people in order to trick us out of the city?"

Ji Ling explained again that he wanted Yuan Shu to leave the city.

After being told by Ji Ling, Yuan Shu looked at Lei Bo, Liu Xun and other generals standing beside him. It seemed that they all wanted to break out of the city, so Yuan Shu nodded.

"Well, let's break out, but we can't choose to break out here. There are Liu Dai's troops fighting with those who don't know where they came from. Let's go south. There are fewer soldiers and horses there, so it should be safer. .”

"it is good."

After Yuan Shu agreed to break out, Ji Ling's face was filled with joy, and he stopped talking to Yuan Shu here, and immediately started to order Lei Bo and Liu Xun to prepare for the breakout.

Not long after, the troops of Yuan Shu's army were already on the city tower all the time. After deciding to break through, they could be assembled soon. After they all gathered to the south, they directly opened the suspension bridge, and then opened the city gate. Thousands of soldiers and horses rushed out of Shouchun City.

On Cao Cao's side, he had just returned to his camp, and ordered his brother Cao Ren to pay close attention to the movement of Shouchun City.

Just after finishing these words, he saw Shouchun City, the city gate was wide open, and many soldiers rushed out of it. Seeing this situation, Cao Cao's expression sank immediately, and the thing he was most worried about happened.

Immediately, he yelled directly at Cao Ren, wanting Cao Ren to block the Yuan Shu army pouring out of the city.

"Not good, Zixiao Cao Ren expresses his words, go and block those people, don't let Yuan Shu run away."

Worrying in his heart, Cao Cao didn't even have time to think about anything, he immediately joined the battle, led his own soldiers, and rushed up, trying to stop Yuan Shu's soldiers who ran out of Shouchun City.

On Cao Cao's side, after all, there are not many soldiers and horses, and most of them have been dispatched to deal with Liu Zheng. The current situation is something that Cao Cao, Liu Dai and others have never thought of.

Especially after Yuan Shu went out of the city, Cao Cao quickly said something to his cronies while rushing towards Yuan Shu's troops.

"Quick, let Cao Hong, who was chasing Liu Zheng, lead his army back immediately, and tell him that there has been a change in Shouchun, and let him come back to support!"

Although Cao Cao was not reconciled, it was the only way to go at this time.

After all, now that Yuan Shu's troops have come out of Shouchun City, if they rely solely on the 2 people here, they will definitely not be able to stop Yuan Shu. The enemy army was wiped out.

The messenger immediately ran over, intending to find Cao Ling.

On Ji Ling's side, he led the army and rushed out from here, directly in the encirclement of Cao Jun, killing a bloody path.

"My lord, go from here!"

Ji Ling turned his head and shouted at Yuan Shu. Under the escort of Ji Ling, Lei Bo and others, Yuan Shu really walked out of Shouchun City.

At this time, Cao Hong, Cheng Yu and others who were a few miles away from Shouchun City were also inextricably fighting Liu Zheng.

Chapter 463 Returning Aid

The morale of the soldiers and horses under Liu Zheng's command was high. With Liu Zheng under command, Zhou Cang, Zhou Dynasty, and Wenpin, under the leadership of three generals, fought fiercely with the officials and troops.

After half an hour of fighting, it was still anxious.

Although there are 4 people in the official army, these 4 people cannot be fully dispatched by one party, but are divided into three parties, and let Cheng Yu, Cao Hong, and Zhang Chao command them.

These three people each led more than [-] people under their command to launch a siege against Liu Zheng. Unfortunately, because the three of them did not have a unified dispatch, the people under their command were scattered and unable to hit the troops against Liu Zheng. cause repression.

Let Liu Zheng's side, although there are only more than [-] people, but relying on tacit cooperation, Liu Zheng's side not only blocked the attack of Cao Hong and others, but was also able to delay the time and gradually weaken the advantage in strength.

In half an hour of fighting, Liu Zhengjun lost only 4000 troops, while Cao Hong and Cheng Yu also lost 4000 troops.

This is just a single party, and the three parties added up, but more than ten thousand people were killed or injured.

With 4 soldiers and horses, in just half an hour, more than [-] people were killed or injured. If the fight continues, these [-] soldiers may have to be fully confessed here.

But Cao Hong had no intention of retreating at all, not only Cao Hong, but also Cheng Yu, because when they came, they had already remembered what Liu Dai, Cao Cao and others said before, not allowing all costs, but also killing Liu Zheng .

As long as Liu Zheng can be killed, all losses are worthwhile, and right now, Liu Zheng is in front of him. If Liu Zheng can be defeated and all 4 horses are buried here, Cao Hong and Cheng Yu are also willing.

After all, the men and horses under their command suffered heavy casualties, and the men under Liu Zheng also suffered losses. Cao Hong and others could afford this method of injuring the enemy by one thousand and self-inflicted eight hundred.

Anyway, the three families belonged to one, and the soldiers who died were not members of the dead family, but members of the three families, and the soldiers and horses that Liu Zheng died were all members of Liu Zheng, and the weakened ones were actually Liu Zheng.

Therefore, despite the casualties of the soldiers and horses, Cao Hong and Cheng Yu still let their men rush forward desperately, wanting to kill more soldiers under Liu Zheng.

But at this moment, a few messengers hurried over from the direction of Shouchun, galloped towards Cao Hong's position, and immediately shouted in front of Cao Hong.

"General Cao Hong, my lord has an order to withdraw your troops and return to Shouchun immediately!"

"General Cao Hong, my lord has an order to withdraw your troops and return to Shouchun immediately!"

"General Cao Hong, my lord has an order to withdraw your troops and return to Shouchun immediately!"

The messenger yelled three times in a row, and finally caught Cao Hong's attention until he got close to Cao Hong's side. After all, the yelling and killing around were too loud, and the distance was far away, so he couldn't hear what he was saying .

Cao Hong was planning to send his troops to intensify the attack, trying to annihilate the more than [-] troops under Liu Zheng in the shortest possible time, but at this moment, he suddenly heard the order to summon him back, and he was immediately taken aback .

"What's going on? Why did my lord let me go back?"

Cao Hong was puzzled, picked up the messenger, and seemed a little angry. If the messenger didn't give him a good explanation, he might not lead the soldiers back.

The messenger was also frightened, and he faltered to Cao Hong at this time.

"General, Shouchun has been attacked, and the lord's men are about to lose their hold!"

The messenger could only tell Cao Hong some things he was optimistic about, and Cao Hong was awakened by these words. He suddenly realized, and his face changed instantly.

"What! Shouchun was attacked?"

Although Cao Hong still didn't know what happened to Shouchun at this time, these words alone were enough to make Cao Hong worry about Cao Cao's safety.

He no longer hesitated, and directly issued orders to the soldiers and horses around him, and at the same time ordered people to prepare to retreat and go to support Shouchun!

But as soon as Cao Hong withdrew his troops, Zhang Chao and Cheng Yu on the other side were a little puzzled.
