Chapter 297 Things are changing

got windy!

This is the first storm in five years of Jian'an.

The harsh winter has passed, and spring has arrived... But in the wilderness, there is no trace of spring, and it is still so solemn and desolate.

Under his command, Mr. Cao looked calm and held the sword tightly in his hand.

Perhaps due to nervousness, his knuckles were a little white, but he didn't notice it at all.

Behind him, Dian Wei and Xu Chu looked calm, like two statues that had existed since ancient times. Their war robes rustled in the wind, and their black armor shone in the sun. Behind them, the Huben Army and the Wuwei Army

They were arrayed tightly and stood in the wind.

For Cao ***, this is not the first time he has fought.

However, this battle is the most important battle to him.

If Puyang cannot be recaptured, then planning a decisive battle for two years is like child's play. Only by defeating Yuan Shao, the snake of Changshan on the south bank of the river, can the battle situation return to his control. As long as Puyang is under his control

With it in hand, it can ensure the stability of Yanzhou. Its eastern barrier can still play an important role. It can not only resist Qingzhou, but also contain Yuan Shao's troops.

The most important thing is that as long as Puyang is there, Qingyan cannot be connected as one.

No matter how powerful Qingzhou Yuan Tan is, he can't give Yuan Shao much help.

At the same time, the existence of Puyang can also give Cheng Yu more time to lay out Guandu...

Overall, whether Puyang can be recaptured has become a key point in the decisive battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. However, Cao Cao was aware of this key, but Yuan Shao was not. Perhaps, someone under Yuan Shao also noticed this.

A little. But in that kind of environment where there are many factions and conflicts with each other, how much can Yuan Shao listen? Cao Cao was also skeptical about this point.

"Lord, why haven't you come yet?"

"Don't worry, I'll be back."

Mr. Cao looked back at Cao Bin and signaled him to calm down.

In fact, why isn't he anxious?

If you stay here for a moment longer, the danger of Baima will increase. Even if Cao Cao has confidence in Cao Peng, he is also worried about the importance of Baima. I think Yanjin has received the news, and Xu You has sent troops to rescue.

...I hope Afu can withstand it.

At this moment, Cao Cao's attention was completely focused on Liu Bei, who was about to arrive.

In his heart, Liu Bei is his biggest enemy...

As Cao Cao expected, after Xu Ping returned to Yanjin, Xu You immediately ordered Ju Hu and general Gao Fan to rush to Puyang to take over.

Before, he would greet him politely, but this time, he didn't ask at all and directly ordered Juhu and Gaofan to change defense.

If Liu Bei falls into Xu You's hands, he will inevitably face Xu You's even more brutal revenge. Therefore, Cao Cao's choice to attack the white horse at this time is to give Liu Bei a reason to attack. He must attack to rescue the white horse... and this is the only way.

Only then could he prove his innocence to Yuan Shao. If not, Liu Bei would never have gained half of Yuan Shao's trust. At that time, he would have no place to live in Hebei.

However, Liu Bei did attack!

But his reaction made Mr. Cao extremely angry...

This guy was traveling almost at a turtle's speed. He set out from Puyang at about ten o'clock, but it took him a long time to cover the distance of only forty or fifty miles.

It can also be seen that Liu Bei must have noticed it, so he reacted this way.

He was very careful every step he took, and the scouts kept coming and going, which made Cao Cao very annoyed. But Cao Cao must be patient and wait!

It can be said that Liu Bei was dilly-dallying.

It can also be said that Liu Bei was wearing down Cao Cao's patience.

However, Cao Cao was fully prepared this time. He did not believe that Liu Bei would not rescue the white horse.

Time passed little by little, and the wind gradually stopped.

The afternoon sun gradually shifted away, and the setting sun slanted down the earth, covering the plains in early spring with a bloody coat...

"Lord, Liu Bei is here!"

The scout finally delivered some exciting news, and a smile suddenly appeared on Mr. Cao's face.

"Junming, Zhongkang."

"Here!"

"Ready."

Dian Wei chuckled and picked up the halberd, "Don't worry, my lord, if the big-eared thief comes, Dian Wei will definitely kill him without a burial place."

He is good at double iron halberds.

But since it was a mounted battle, Dian Wei placed the double iron halberd behind him and replaced it with a long halberd.

To be a general, one must be proficient in all eighteen kinds of weapons. In this regard, Dian Wei is much more powerful than Xu Chu. Xu Chu is good at using a broadsword, but Dian Wei is good at using all kinds of weapons. But if there is a competition of strength,

Xu Chu was slightly better than Dian Wei.

Xu Chu grinned, revealing his snow-white teeth.

"Why hasn't the big-eared thief come over yet?"

As he was talking, a group of people appeared at the end of the horizon, marching slowly.

This place is called Zhaoying.

This is the place where Yan Liang blocked Xu Huang before.

The terrain is very open, which is most suitable for large armies to engage in field battles. When Liu Bei's banner clearly caught Cao Cao's eyes, Cao Cao suddenly urged his horse, "All troops, attack!"

The Wuwei Army and the Huben Army moved forward to meet them, one on the left and the other on the right.

As soon as the two armored troops appeared, Liu Bei immediately noticed them.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said softly: "I knew that old thief Cao *** was not that simple."

When he got the news that Baima had been lost, his first reaction was not to rescue, but to hold on to Puyang. Because he knew it must be a trap. Unexpectedly, Yu Jin, Li Dian, Xu Huang and three others suddenly led their troops and retreated three

Ten miles later, the camp was set up.

Juhu didn't say anything, because before he came to Puyang, he received a letter from Jushou.

The letter said that Liu Bei should not be forced too hard and it would be best to let him stay in Puyang. This would help Juhu.

But Gao Fan disagreed.

Gao Fan was a dead soldier of the Yuan family and was originally stationed on the river.

After learning about the fall of Baima, Gao Fan immediately asked Liu Bei to send troops.

It is better to say it is a request than an order... Liu Bei was very reluctant, but under Gao Fan's order, he had no choice but to send troops. However, after leaving Puyang, Liu Bei was slow and cautious, and Cao Cao was defeated in his life.

Mao Zedong's ambush. But in the end, he still had to fight Cao Cao Cao in a decisive battle... He looked at the soldiers and horses behind him, and secretly smiled bitterly, "Three armies, line up... to meet the enemy!"

If Xu Huang were here, he might actually laugh three times and say, "Big-eared thieves have their day."

Things have turned around. How similar is the situation that Liu Bei is facing at this time to the situation that Xu Huang faced at the beginning? It is also in Zhao camp, it is blocked by others, it is also impossible to retreat, it can only bite the bullet and fight! History will always be there.

There are so many interesting coincidences.

"Xuande, why don't you dismount and accept surrender?"

Cao Cao laughed loudly and urged his horse forward, pointing his sword at Liu Bei in the distance.

Liu Bei's face was as dark as water. After a while, he said sternly: "Old thief, I wish I could eat your flesh and blood."

The two were so familiar that there was no need for any explanation on the scene. One was named on the belt edict, and Cao Cao was quick to eliminate his henchman; the other was ambitious and vowed to kill Cao Cao.

A hero of the world.

"Who will help me take that old thief's head?"

Liu Bei shouted loudly, and Zhang Fei behind him, without saying a word, leapt on his horse, raised his spear, and rushed towards Cao Cao.

As soon as Zhang Fei came out, Xu Chu from Cao's army also rushed out of the formation, clapped his horse and waved his sword, and stopped Zhang Fei.

Both of them were superb warriors with natural supernatural powers and extraordinary bravery. When they fought in one place, they could only hear the clash of swords and spears, and the sound of shouts. In terms of martial arts, Zhang Fei was slightly better than Xu Chu; in terms of strength, Xu Chu was better.

Zhang Fei. But Xu Chu also has an acquired advantage, that is, the high bridge saddle under his body can stabilize his figure, and the double stirrups can allow him to sit more steadily and explode with greater strength. Even the mount under his crotch

, and because of the horseshoes, he had the upper hand.

The iron hoofs kicked Zhang Fei's horse, and Zhang Fei's horse was also smart and realized that something was wrong, so he quickly dodged. However, this made it difficult for Zhang Fei to stabilize his body on the horse, and when he was fighting with Xu Chu

, naturally felt strenuous and gradually became unable to resist.

Guan Yu saw in the formation that Danfeng's slightly closed eyes suddenly widened, and the horse under his crotch let out a long hiss, and rushed out of the formation with Guan Yu on his back.

"Sneak attack on the child, and still want to be rampant."

Guan Yu rushed towards Xu Chu with his sword, but he heard someone in Cao Cao's formation shouting sharply.

Dian Wei rushed out with his halberd, his horse on his hip, like a flash of red lightning, instantly blocking Guan Yu's path.

Dian Wei's horse has a long history. His mount is the red rabbit and wind beast that Lu Bu used to ride.
