As the tragic news of "flooding seven armies" on the Jingzhou battlefield came, all the generals in Cao's camp were horrified.

Even Cao Cao himself had no intention of continuing the confrontation in Hanzhong.

Changes in the Central Plains!

He was already thinking of quitting.

However, the current situation is beyond his control.

…

The great victory in Jingzhou has not yet reached the hands of Liu Bei, the king of Hanzhong in Yangping Pass. At this moment, he has adopted the strategy proposed by the mastermind Fazheng and sent General Huang Zhong and General Zhao Yun of the Yi Army to lead their troops along the east.

March to the south bank of the Han River, wait for an opportunity to cross the Han River and head to Beishan to rob military supplies.

After the two generals left Guancheng for many days and no news came back from them, Liu Bei became slightly worried and asked:

"Xiaozhi, Zilong and Hansheng have been ordered to rob the enemy's food route for many days, but no news has been sent back yet. Could it be that something happened?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fa Zhong was extremely calm on the surface, without the slightest panic, and responded calmly, "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry!"

"Han Sheng is a veteran and has extremely rich experience in battle."

"Zilong is also cautious. Can you still trust the two of them as partners?"

After hearing the comfort of these words, Liu Bei gradually gave up his worries.

At this moment, there is a camp at the southern foot of the Han River to the east, where Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun's troops are stationed.

Since he was ordered to lead his troops to rob Cao's army's grain road in Beishan, Huang Zhong sent people deep into Beishan to inquire for information.

On this day, the scouts reported one after another, "Reporting to the old general, according to our spying in the past two days, we have learned about the enemy's grain garrison in the northern foothills."

"Not only that, a large amount of military rations transported by Cao's army from Guanzhong in the past two days have been transported to the foot of Beishan for storage."

Having said that, Huang Zhong was overjoyed and the spies quickly marked it on the topographic map.

After figuring out Cao Jun's grain outpost, Huang Zhongchu decided to lead his troops to rob the grain and burn it.

Even Zhao Yun, who has always been cautious, did not object to this plan.

After all, they are all senior generals in the army.

Naturally, he is very clear about the military's strategic plan.

We know that the most critical factor in Cao's army being able to maintain a long-lasting stalemate at Yangping Pass this time was relying on Guanzhong's ability to continuously transport grain, grass and other logistical supplies.

If all the enemy's grain garrisoning areas can be burned to the ground this time, how will the Cao family continue to be in a stalemate due to lack of food?

By then, would Cao's thieves have any other option but to withdraw their troops and return north?

Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun both reached a consensus.

Naturally, the plan to rob the grain was quickly hatched.

However, the two of them had a dispute about who should lead the troops.

"Zilong, I am the commander-in-chief this time. For such an important task, I should lead the team myself!"

"You should be responsible for staying behind to take care of us!"

Huang Zhong first said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun responded, "Hey! Han Sheng's words are wrong. It is precisely because you are the commander-in-chief of an army that you cannot take such risks."

However, just when the two were arguing.

Zhao Yun suddenly had an idea, picked up a stone from the ground, rubbed it into his palms, then spread it out, with a deep smile on his face, and said:

"In that case, let God decide who will lead the army in robbing food and grass, right?"

"Okay, okay!"

After saying this, Huang Zhong smiled and replied with a cheerful smile.

Then, he stared at Zhao Yun's two palms for a long time, then pointed to his left palm and stroked his beard and laughed, "I'll twist him!"

After saying that, he opened Zhao Yun's palm.

Sure enough, the pebble appeared in the palm of his left hand.

"Hahaha."

"I just said it's my turn to go ahead this time!"

"Hahaha……"

For a moment, both of them laughed heartily.

However, Zhao Yun still reminded Huang Zhong to be careful during this trip!

In addition, in order to improve the probability of completing the plan and ensure Huang Zhong's safety, Zhao Yun also handed over all his troops and horses to him to take with him.

Riding on a horse, holding a big sword in his hand, Huang Zhong did not forget to praise Haikou before leaving, "Zilong, just rest assured and wait for my good news!"

After the words fell, the two generals parted ways.

Zhao Yun stayed behind to guard the camp, waiting for Huang Zhong to return from robbing grain.

After waiting for most of the night, it was almost sunset in Shanxi Province and the appointed time had already passed, but Huang Zhong still hadn't returned!

At this moment, Zhao Yun couldn't help but become worried.

He thought for a moment and decided to go down the mountain to meet Huang Zhong's troops.

Then he ordered Mianyang County Magistrate Zhang Yi and his troops to continue to stay in the camp.

He himself led more than a hundred riders down the mountain to look for traces of Huang Zhong.

However, what surprised Zhao Yun was that as soon as he led his troops down the mountain, he encountered a large number of Cao Jun soldiers.

The flags cover the sky, like an endless realm!

At a glance, it seems like there is no end in sight!

The hundred men under his command were also trapped in the endless encirclement of Cao Jun.

Even though Zhao Yun is extremely skilled in martial arts, he can wield a bright silver spear like a tiger and a tiger with great force, and he can ride on a thousand horses as if there is no one in sight, and no one can stop him!

However, he was also well aware of the fact that the enemy was outnumbered and we were outnumbered, so he led his troops to fight and retreat, and went to the weak points of the enemy's formation.

However, as soon as Zhao Yun's troops showed signs of fighting out, a large number of Cao's troops surrounding him heard the news and surrounded him again.

With a large number of people and strength, the vanguard who had just been repulsed and the hundred men under his command were undoubtedly in a tough fight.

Simply relying on Zhao Yun's incomparable bravery, relying on a bright silver spear and the divine horse Yezhao Jade Lion to gallop forward, and charge around to kill, he led his men to break out of the tight siege.

However, as soon as he was covered in blood and broke out of the siege, he suddenly heard that the besieged general Zhang Zhang was injured and fell into the depths of the enemy's formation. He was about to die on the spot under siege!

When Zhao Yun saw this, how could he have the character to abandon Pao Ze in battle?

Then he ordered his cavalry to retreat to the mountain first.

Alone, he turned his horse around and returned to the enemy's formation. He was so brave all the way, as if he was entering an uninhabited country!

Until he came to Zhang Zhang with a gun, pulled him onto his horse, and then broke through numerous obstacles and fought his way out of the siege again.

Three in and three out!

The direct killing made Cao's soldiers extremely frightened.

At this moment, when the general Cao Zhen, who was watching the battle in the mountains, saw this, a complex look appeared on his face, "Who is that?"

"Reporting to General Cao, that man is the savior who rode alone in the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry at Changbanpo in Dangyang in the past, and killed Changshan Zhao Zilong who was seven in and seven out."

The veterans who had participated in the Nagasaka chase heard next to them and immediately reported loudly.

"The heroes of Nagasaka in the past are still here, and they are still mighty!"

When Cao Zhen heard this, he was filled with emotion unconsciously.

Even though he is over fifty years old, he is still able to gallop through the chaotic army, entering and exiting three times without anyone being able to compete with him.

Wouldn't such a divine general make General Cao's army fearful?

And as Zhao Yun rescued his subordinates, he didn't show any desire to fight.

He quickly retreated to the mountain camp!

However, Cao Zhen personally planned this battle deployment, how could he give up this feat so easily?

He waved his hand and the flags in the formation waved.

Cao's soldiers from various departments also pursued him.

The two armies chased each other into the mountains.

Zhang Yi, who was staying in the camp, had already learned the detailed military information from the withdrawing cavalry in advance. After waiting for Zhao Yun to return to camp, he quickly proposed:

"General Zhao, the enemy army is strong. Why don't you close the gate of the village and hold on to ask for help from the king?"

After saying these words, Zhao Yun pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and flatly rejected this strategy.

He then quickly explained, "There are very few soldiers in our camp this time. If we close the camp and defend it, it may be difficult to withstand Cao's army's massive attack!"
