Chapter 546 Legendary General, Zhao Yun!
Zhou Yu nodded.
Cao Ren saw disappointment in Zhou Yu's eyes.
He also knew what was going on.
Cao Ren was also very disdainful of Miao Moqing's massacre. He even thought that after this matter was over, Cao Jun would have the same fate when facing Sun Jian.
When he saw Miao Moqing's ability, Cao Ren even had the idea of secretly killing Miao Moqing.
But he was quickly suppressed by Cao Ren. The current coalition still needed people like Miao Moqing. Besides, Sun Jian must have valued Miao Moqing very much. If he rashly assassinated her, Sun Jian might turn his face on the spot.
The only way now was to stop Miao Moqing. After all, she was Sun Jian's man. Sometimes, Zhou Yu's effect was far greater than his own.
"There is still a Zhijiang, Brother Gongjin, why don't you hold on?"
Cao Ren asked tentatively, and there was naturally something else in his words.
How could Zhou Yu not understand Cao Ren's retention and the meaning behind his words?
At the same time, Zhou Yu knew that what Miao Moqing was doing was what Sun Jian wanted. Now, in the Yangzhou army, except for Sun Ce, no one could compare with Miao Moqing's position in Sun Jian, not even himself.
Zhou Yu thought of this and was even more disappointed with Sun Jian, but after all, he was his lord, so he could only bear it.
"Forget it, there is no point for me to be here anymore, I'd better go back to the front line."
Seeing that Zhou Yu had made up his mind, Cao Ren couldn't say anything.
As for Miao Moqing, it seemed that she had nothing to do with her, and she didn't even look at Zhou Yu.
Miao Moqing didn't care about these things. If Zhou Yu hadn't named her to attend the meeting, she probably wouldn't even come.
As night fell, Zhou Yu packed up everything and rushed directly to the front battlefield with a few personal soldiers.
Huang Zhong and others ambushed for a day on the way to Zhijiang, but never waited for Zhou Yu's army. Seeing that the sky was already bright, Huang Zhong, who had been fighting on the battlefield for many years, felt relieved at this time.
"The whole army will set out and rush to Zhijiang."
In one day, Huang Zhong led everyone to Zhijiang.
At this time in Zhijiang, tens of thousands of people worked together, and more than half of the moat had been dug and was about to be completed.
When Huang Zhong saw it, he immediately asked everyone to help speed up the progress.
When Ma Chao saw Huang Zhong coming, he immediately stepped forward.
"Old General, you are here, we are about to finish here."
"Mengqi, you are digging the moat here, is there no one from Cao Jun to interfere with you?"
Hearing Huang Zhong's words, Ma Chao smiled and pointed to Xiahou Dun's camp in front.
"Of course they interfered, but they only have Xiahou Dun, so they are naturally no match for me. They would send people to interfere before, but after being repelled by me several times, they also suffered heavy losses, and finally they simply stopped coming."
In half a day, the entire moat was dug and water was flowing.
After doing all this, Huang Zhong also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mengqi, this is the only city left among the three cities. If we can't hold on, Jingzhou may be lost to the coalition forces."
"Don't worry, old general, we will definitely win."
When Xiahou Dun saw that Huang Zhong and his men had arrived, he was shocked and hurriedly led everyone to retreat fifty miles, resettle the camp, and arranged many spies along the way. As long as Huang Zhong and his men sent troops, Xiahou Dun would know it at the first time.
Huang Zhong did decide to attack Xiahou Dun's camp.
There were many famous generals from both sides who came here this time. Now there was only one Xiahou Dun on the other side. As long as he died, it would be a heavy blow to Cao's army. After all, the two sides had already started a war, so they didn't have to care so much. They would kill as many as they could.
However, when Huang Zhong rushed to Xiahou Dun's camp, he found that it was an empty camp.
After finally finding Xiahou Dun's new camp, Cao Ren and his men also came with reinforcements.
Huang Zhong had no choice but to return to Zhijiang City.
Xiahou Dun was relieved when he saw Cao Ren coming.
"Zixiao, Miaocai, you are finally here. If you hadn't come, my camp might have retreated fifty miles."
Both of them understood what Xiahou Dun said. After all, the other side had five famous generals, while there was only Xiahou Dun himself. No matter what, the gap was too big.
"Don't worry, we will soon end the battle here."
After Cao Ren finished speaking, he glanced at Miao Moqing beside him.
Xiahou Dun didn't understand what Cao Ren meant, and also looked at Miao Moqing beside him curiously.
"Generals, I will go down to prepare."
After speaking, Miao Moqing didn't give them a chance to speak, and turned around and left.
When Cao Ren heard about going down to prepare, he thought of the massacre of the city, and his face was not very good.
"This is..."
"Don't worry about it, prepare, and attack the city tomorrow morning."
"Okay."
Seeing that Cao Ren didn't want to say anything, Xiahou Dun didn't ask any more.
The front line at this time
Gu Rubing stood on the city wall, looking at the densely packed Cao Cao camp outside the city, with a sneer on his face.
"My Lord, we have already investigated clearly that the coalition's food and grass are all in Zuotang County."
"Okay, since Cao Cao wants to cut off my food and grass, don't blame me for giving him a taste of his own medicine."
When Cao Cao attacked the three cities, Gu Rubing was already a little angry. Isn't this just a way of playing dirty when he can't win head-on?
Gu Rubing began to ask Captain Younu to investigate where the food coalition forces stored grain and grass.
Because the coalition's confidentiality measures were so good, Gu Rubing's spy inside was unable to pass on the information. It also took Colonel You Nu three days to find the location.
However, for Gu Rubing, the wait during this period of time was not in vain, it was also a surprise.
"Now that we've found them, let's let them feel our pain."
After saying that, Gu Rubing waved directly.
A group of people quietly left the city.
Naturally, there was no way to avoid Cao Cao's internal mobilization in Nanjun, but when he learned that only 400 people were leaving, Cao Cao didn't care. After all, Gu Rubing's famous generals were all standing on the city wall. As long as there were no mobilization of famous generals, hundreds of people would not be able to move. People are nothing.
Both sides have accumulated millions of soldiers in Nanjun, so who cares about the transfer of hundreds of people.
Night falls, outside Tang County.
A team of several hundred people was hiding in the dense forest outside the city.
During the Tang Dynasty, as Cao Cao's rear area, Cao Cao hoarded all his grain and grass here.
There is no fighting here. The soldiers guarding the city are drunk every day and have no consciousness of guarding the city at all.
"General, there is no one on the wall. Is there an ambush?"
"Come on, let's go in and take a look. If there is an ambush, we'll get out."
"yes."
Four hundred white horse Yi Cong, led by the people in front, rushed directly into Zuotang City.
Looking at the county town with its gate open, all the white horse followers frowned.
Soon, they saw a drunken soldier walking down the city wall. When he saw them, he was obviously stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted, pulled out the knife in his hand, and hurriedly shouted: "Who?"
When the leading general heard this, he no longer hid it and directly took off the black cloth from his face.
"Changshan Zhao Zilong is here, who will die?"
Yes, this person is Zhao Yun.
In the past few days, Gu Rubing was looking for the place where Cao Cao kept food and grass, while also asking Hua Tuo to speed up the treatment of Zhao Yun.
Now the two sides have been fighting for half a month, and the famous generals in their hands keep appearing, but Zhao Yun has not shown up.
Gu Rubing guessed that Cao Cao would definitely put down his guard against Zhao Yun, and this was the opportunity.
"Zhao...Zhao Yun? Enemy..."
Before the soldier could finish his words, Zhao Yun shot him in the head.
Soon, Baima Yicong started cleaning up Zuotang City.
With all four city gates blocked, no one among the two thousand defenders in Zuotang and a second-rate general led by him had a chance to escape.
Until Zhao Yun completely controlled Zuotang, Cao Cao did not receive any news.
But soon, Cao Cao knew it, because a thick smoke had risen from the direction of Zuotang.
Seeing the appearance of thick smoke and the sky full of fire, Cao Cao suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart.
Something must have happened to Zuotang.
Among all the counties in the rear, only Zuotang was important to him, and the only one worthy of Gu Rubing's sneak attack was Zuotang.
Thinking of what he saw in the morning, all the famous generals in Gu Rubing's hands were guarding the city, and no famous generals went out at all.
Therefore, those who lead a team to sneak attack on themselves can only be quasi-famous generals or first-class generals, or at most they can bring special troops.
"Xu Huang, Gao Lan, you two will bring five thousand people to support Zuo Tang."
After the two said yes, they prepared to leave.
Sun Jian had a lot of contact with Gu Rubing and knew Gu Rubing's personality. He understood that Gu Rubing would never fight an unprepared battle. Gu Rubing had always liked to have a backup plan when doing things.
When seizing the three cities, there were only three famous generals on the surface, but secretly, there were two famous generals and some special units.
"Prime Minister, I feel there is something wrong with this matter. To be on the safe side, let Cheng Pu follow."
Cao Cao wanted to refuse, but when he thought about it, Sun Jian had not contributed much. This time he finally got the idea to help, so he couldn't refuse.
"Okay, then let General Cheng Pu accompany you for a while."
Soon, Cheng Pu took Xu Huang and Gao Lan and hurried to Zuotang, which was an important food and grass town for the coalition. If something went wrong, no one in the entire coalition would be able to recover.
When they arrived at Zuotang, they happened to see Zhao Yun guarding outside the city gate with four hundred white horses.
When they saw Zhao Yun appear, the three people present widened their eyes, and they even wanted to go back first.
They are no match for Zhao Yun now.
Since Zhao Yun appears here, it means that this Zuotang must have been lost.
The three of them turned around and prepared to run without even thinking.
"Now that you are here, the three of you should not leave."
Zhao Yun waved the silver gentian spear in his hand and stabbed Gao Lan with one shot.
Gao Lan ran at the end. When he saw Zhao Yun rushing towards him, he gave a helpless smile and waved his sword to block Zhao Yun.
However, just when the tip of the spear was about to reach Gao Lan, Zhao Yun shook one hand, and several spear flowers appeared instantly. Gao Lan was unable to dodge, and several bloody holes instantly appeared on his body.
Gao Lan's eyes widened and he fell to the ground.
Cheng Pu on the side saw that Zhao Yun did not stop at all, hesitated for a moment, and shouted to Xu Huang: "Let's go!"
After shouting, Cheng Pu rushed in front of Zhao Yun with a sword.
However, Zhao Yun was already on the verge of becoming a legendary military commander, and could be said to be invincible under legendary military commanders.
In addition, Cheng Pu is not very strong among the famous generals.
After only ten rounds of fighting, Cheng Pu was defeated by Zhao Yun with a single shot.
At the moment Cheng Pu died, Zhao Yun suddenly felt a lightness on his body.
A force erupted from his body.
Zhao Yun looked at Xu Huang, who had already run away, with a smile on his lips, and flew out the silver gentian gun in his hand with one hand.
A ray of silver light shot out instantly, so fast that no one could react.
Just when the silver light was about to reach Xu Huang, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Evil is coming!"
As soon as the voice fell, Dian Wei suddenly rushed out and shot back the gentian bright silver gun.
Zhao Yun held it in his hand and looked at Dian Wei in front of him.
Dian Wei was also looking at Zhao Yun, with some excitement in his eyes.
"I didn't expect that you would also become a legendary military commander. Just let me try to see how strong you are."
Dian Wei was in front of Zhao Yun in an instant.
"Silver Dragon."
Zhao Yun's voice fell, and a huge silver dragon phantom appeared behind Zhao Yun.
As soon as the two sides exchanged blows, a terrifying collision sound caused all the surrounding soldiers to spit out a mouthful of blood. Then a strong wind blew and everyone was blown away.
Xu Huang, who was still running for his life, was even knocked off his horse.
After finally getting up from the ground, I couldn't help but shiver when I looked at the movement behind me!
"Liu Bei must be sick! Send a legendary general to attack the grain and grass team. Is this how legendary generals are used?"
After Xu Huang muttered under his breath, he speeded up and finally rushed into Cao Cao's military camp.
In the military camp at this time, Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others all had gloomy faces.
"My lord, Zhao Yun is..."
"Okay, we get it."
Cao Cao waved his hand.
The moment Zhao Yun became a legendary general, Dian Wei, the strongest among Cao Cao's troops, felt it. After talking to Cao Cao, he rushed over to support him, and then rescued Xu Huang from Zhao Yun's hands.
"Three legendary generals, why is Liu Bei so lucky?"
Cao Cao felt a deep sense of frustration in his heart at this time.
Finally, I feel that the gap between me and Liu Bei has been shortened a lot, but now I see that I am still not his opponent, and the gap is getting further and further.
Cao Cao looked at Xu Chu who was standing aside.
In his own camp, the only one who has the chance to become a legendary general is Xu Chu.
As for Sun Jian's camp, almost no one has the chance to become a legendary general in the short term.
As for Sun Jian, he was no less shocked and worried than Cao Cao, or even more.
I finally made Sun Ce a legendary general, but he turned out to be the weakest legendary general. I originally thought that even if he was the weakest, he would still be a legendary general, but Liu Bei actually made another one. What would he do next? How can you keep going?
