However, it was not that easy for Cao Cao to retreat, because a second wave of crossbow arrows flew behind him immediately. Although it was fired from behind, it caused relatively few casualties, but it still caused Cao Cao to suffer another five or six thousand casualties.

After Cao Cao's army rushed in, he didn't even see the other side, and nearly one-quarter of the casualties were killed or killed. Not to mention seeing such a battle example, I have never heard of it.

"Damn Liu He, didn't he say he could not see through our plan at all? But why was he setting up an ambush here and prepared so well? How many soldiers should he be ambushing here?"

Since Liu He's soldiers were lurking in a large circular trench with Liu He's tent as the center and diameter was a hundred steps away, Cao Cao could not see how many people and horses were lurking on the other side. He could only make a general judgment based on the density of the crossbow arrows and the casualties of his soldiers. In his opinion, the other party ambushed at least 50,000 and 60,000 people were ambushing the camp, and 50,000 and 60,000 were fired at the same time. With such a scale and such a scene, he was absolutely shocked.

However, Cao Cao was also a little relieved, because this meant that Liu He would not ambush the people behind them. Even if he was ambushing, because there were so many crossbowmen in the camp, there would never be too many people behind him, and he could not stop his own breakthrough at all.

However, the development of the matter was once again beyond Cao Cao's expectations, because shortly after he ordered the sound of gold, he saw dense crossbow arrows coming from outside the camp. Although the density of crossbow arrows was still a certain difference compared to that within the camp, this round of crossbow arrows also caused more than 3,000 casualties on his own.

"Damn it! I really didn't expect that the bandits would be ambushed outside. Once the bandits were attacked internally and externally, we would be in danger, so we would fight to the death no matter what."

When Cao Cao thought of this, he then ordered to rush out at all costs.

However, at this moment, a feather arrow flew from nowhere and actually brushed through Cao Cao's nose, which scared Cao Cao in cold sweat.

"Lord, I'll protect you." At the critical moment, Cao Hong bravely stepped forward, protected Cao Cao, and then continued to rush forward.

However, at this moment, a general suddenly walked to the front. The man did not know Cao Cao, but recognized Cao Hong and laughed loudly: "Cao Hong, where are you leaving? Grandpa Zhou Cang is here! The last time you attacked my camp, you lost thousands of brothers. Grandpa Zhou Cang had long wanted to seek revenge on you, but he didn't want to meet you today. It's better to meet by chance than to meet you. Today I took the opportunity to ask you for some interest, haha, Cao Hong, come here."

Zhou Cang said, holding a long sword in his hand and slashed at Cao Hong. On the one hand, Cao Hong was trying to protect Cao Cao and on the other hand, he wanted to kill Zhou Cang Liwei, so he did not escape, but waved his spear to block it.

However, because he fell into the trap of the horse pit, he almost exhausted his strength to protect Cao Cao, and he could not stop Zhou Cang's knife. In addition, he was just an ordinary wooden spear in his hand, not the iron spear he usually used, so in the process of resisting, Zhou Cang's knife cut off Cao Hong's gun bar effortlessly, and then, as if there was no obstacle, slashed directly on Cao Hong's shoulder, slashing Cao Hong in half from his left shoulder to his right waist.

"......" Cao Hong didn't even say a word, widened his eyes and was stabbed to death by Zhou Cang with an incredible look.

"Zi Lian, Zi Lian..." Seeing his cousin Cao Hong being killed by Zhou Cang, Cao Cao was heartbroken and burst into tears. At this time, he continued to break out under the protection of another cousin Cao Chun.

Zhou Cang slashed Cao Hong with a knife, felt very proud, and laughed loudly: "Brothers, your great revenge has finally been avenged. It's really worth it. I'm going to swap defense zones with General Zhang Ren today."

At this time, Chen Dao, who came from not far away, snorted coldly: "You idiot, you are so proud of killing Cao Hong. Do you know who you have missed just now? The one riding a white horse, wearing a red robe and a long beard is Cao Cao. You killed Cao Hong but let Cao Cao go. It was simply because of a small loss and he was still proud of himself here!"

"Ah? What? I missed Cao Cao? Ahhhh, I'm so stupid." Zhou Cang wished he could slap himself a few times in the face, but he actually let Cao Cao slip away from his nose. This is really a pity, too hateful, it is definitely the first regret in his life!

So Zhou Cang was no longer proud at this time. He dragged his long sword and ran away to Cao Cao, wanting to capture Cao Cao alive.

However, there are many people between Cao Cao and Zhou Cang. In addition, Cao Cao is also a famous horse in the world, called Jaw Huang Feidian. He can travel 1,200 miles a day, faster than Zhou Cang, so not only can he not catch up, but his distance from the other party is getting farther and farther.

Zhou Cang was very impatient when he saw this scene. At this moment, he suddenly thought of an idea and shouted loudly while running: "It's Cao Cao who is wearing a red robe, don't let him run away."

Zhou Cang's voice was very rough, and the soldiers in the distance heard it. They quickly looked up and found that a man in a red robe was running away, so they all rushed towards Cao Cao, trying to capture Cao Cao and make extraordinary achievements.

Cao Cao also heard Zhou Cang's shouts, and even saw many people coming towards him. So he decisively unbuttoned his war robe, threw it on the ground, and then rode his horse again.

At this time, Zhou Cang shouted again: "It's Cao Cao who has a beard, don't let him run away."

Zhou Cang's shouts alarmed many people again, and they all surrounded Cao Cao, who had long beards, trying to capture Cao Cao alive.

Seeing this on the horse, Cao Cao felt ruthless and took out his sword from his waist, cut off his long beard with his sword, and then continued to escape.

Although Zhou Cang was not close, his eyes were staring at Cao Cao, so Cao Cao's series of actions could not be hidden from him. So he shouted again: "It's Cao Cao who has a short beard, so don't let him go."

"......" Cao Cao could have cut his beard and abandoned his robe before, but now his beard has been cut very short, which has become the main feature. If the beard is cut, it cannot grow any longer. Therefore, Cao Cao's goal has become particularly obvious again and has become the target of everyone's pursuit.
