~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the chaos in Yanzhou, Lu Bu led 5,000 troops from the headquarters, and joined the Chen Liu army of the Zhang brothers, 7,000 troops and horses sponsored by Chen Gong, Xu Si and Wang Kai, and a total of 17,000 troops to attack Puyang.

Puyang is not only Cao Cao's military and political center, but also his most important rear and military and food base. Taking Puyang can give Cao Cao a heavy blow. If Xiahou Dun's troops can be wiped out at the same time, Cao Cao's arm will be cut off. To achieve this goal, Chen Gong offered Lu Bu a plan to lure a snake out of the hole. When Lu Bu heard this, he applauded the attack.

When Lu Bu led his army to Lihu on the north bank of the Pu River, Puyang, a hundred miles away, was already prepared to defend against the enemy under the leadership of Xiahou Dun. At this time, Puyang had 5,000 soldiers, including 2,000 elite soldiers, while Lu Bu had nearly 20,000 soldiers, and the real soldiers were only 6,700 to defend the city. In order to fight against three times the enemy, Xiahou Dun had sufficient confidence.

However, I never expected that after Lu Bu's army left Lihu, he shot with a fake shot. Instead of killing Puyang, which was heavily in the city, he turned north and crossed the Huzi River, and pointed directly at Zhencheng.

Xiahou Dun was shocked when he heard the news. You should know that there were only a thousand guards in Zhencheng at this time. The guards were Sima Xun Yu from other departments. Xun Sima was good at governing the country and short of governing the army. How could he resist the enemy that was ten times more than ten times more? If it were just like this, Xiahou Dun was shocked but not lost his appearance. What really made him lose his appearance was that all the lord's inner relatives, children, and the relatives of all the Cao family and Xiahou generals were in Zhencheng.

In other words, if Zhencheng is captured by Lu Bu - this is almost certain. All senior generals of Cao's army and relatives of the advisers will fall into the hands of Lu Bu. This is absolutely fatal!

At this moment, Xiahou Dun had no choice.

When Xiahou Dun led 4,000 troops out of the city to rescue Zhencheng, Lu Bu killed a retaliation. The two sides passed by Xiancheng between Puyang and Zhencheng and went their separate ways. Xiahou Dun successfully rushed to Zhencheng in the east. He saved Cao's relatives and Cao Cao's important foundation in Yanzhou Zhencheng. Lu Bu also successfully fought to Puyang in the west, with absolute superior force, forcing the defenders to surrender and seize the important Yanzhou city in one fell swoop.

Chen Gong's plan to lead the snake out of the cave was perfectly achieved.

Xiahou Dun, who had lost his important land, could only build camps and camps on the edge of the Yellow River twenty miles northwest of Zhencheng, and support each other with Zhencheng to resist Lu Bu's army.

At this time, Lu Bu faced two choices: one was to concentrate his troops to attack Xiahou Dun's army and cut off Cao Cao's arm. The other was to send a small number of troops to stop Xiahou Dun, and the main army rushed to Rencheng Kingdom 500 miles away. Attack Kangfu and Gaoping two cities, and cut off Cao Cao's army's journey to return to aid. After his food was exhausted, he would collapse without attacking.

Lu Bu's generals Zhang Liao and Gao Shun all supported the latter choice, but Chen Gong, Xu Si, Wang Kai, Hao Meng, and Wei Yue supported the former choice, while the rest of the same choice, while Cao Xing took a middle-aged attitude.

Lu Bu hesitated for a long time. Judging from his military perspective of his war for many years, what Zhang Liao and Gao Shun said was a long-term plan, but the opinions of the local forces represented by Chen Gong and others cannot be ignored. Moreover, Chen Gong made great contributions to the successful capture of Puyang this time, and his reason was very sufficient: as long as he defeated and annihilated Xiahou Dun's troops, he would naturally be like exploring objects in a bag. In this way, Cao Cao's vitality was severely damaged and he would no longer be troubled. And what Zhang Liao and Gao Shun said made sense: Cao Mengde was a snake's head, and his head was cut off and his body was stiff. How could he give up his head and hit his body?

After repeated weighing, Lu Bu flashed his mind and came up with a ruthless trick to kill two birds with one stone.

...

Along the Yellow River, there are ravines crisscrossing and dense shrubs, and more than twenty people sit or stand. The scorching sun is burning and the earth is like a steamer. Although weeds and terrain are hidden, the sun cannot directly hit the body, the heat still makes people irritable and restless.

However, whenever everyone's eyes passed by the two quiet and focused figures, their mood couldn't help but feel refreshed.

One man was neatly dressed in white, and was kneeling on a mat, and read quietly. Even if the sweat beads oozing from his forehead dripped, he could not be distracted; the other man was using a weird short knife with serrated teeth on the back, he was focused and carefully cutting a very long arrow.

That's right, the twenty-eight people lurking here are Ma Han and his Ten Wolf Cavalry, and Li Dian and his sixteen disciples.

Isn't Ma Han a twenty wolf rider? Why did he only get ten people? The answer is: the other ten people have sailed north to Yangping to pick up Lejin's father. Ma Han led ten soldiers left, leaving him to wait for an opportunity to help Li Dian.

Ma Han is actually not optimistic about such assassination methods, but only allows Li Dian to do his best and just give an explanation when he goes back. He can't do nothing and go back in shame, right? Anyway, it's not difficult to pick up Le Jin's father, and he can do it by sending a white wolf cavalry. Ma Han stayed, and it was said to be a supporter of Li Dian on the surface, but actually had other plans.

They were nearly thirty people, staring at the 3,000 Japanese soldiers of Sailan. The reinforcements were finally stationed in Xiancheng, fifty miles southwest of Zhencheng. Afterwards, Lu Bu from Puyang also came to visit Sailan in person. This was the first time Lu Bu saw him, and the two sides finalized the resolution to jointly attack Xiahou Dun.

Ma Han managed to capture a patrolman Juye Army Governor and got the news.

Lu Bu fights Xiahou Dun! This opportunity is not to be missed. While waiting for Yangping to pick up people, sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight. If you have the chance, give both sides some eye drops. Wouldn't it be nice to make the fight between the two sides lively?

Although Ma Han wanted to attack Cao Cao, it did not mean that he was Lu Bu's ally. The more fiercely Lu Bu and Cao Cao's two tigers, the more severe the bite, the more in his injury, the more in his interests. It is unknown whether Li Dian could find an opportunity to assassinate Satolan, but he really wanted to find an opportunity to kill Xiahou Dun.

Li Dian and Xiahou Dun were both early generals of Cao Cao, but the two of them had completely different natures. If Li Dian had the opportunity to bring him over, then Xiahou Dun might not have any. Among the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu, Cao Cao's Cao Wei group was the most typical force that mainly relied on the clan to maintain its rule.

Although Cao Cao first proposed in the "Seeking for Talents" that "two or three sons are the only one who can help me, but I can only use them." However, the selected talents have nothing to do with the military. In the military, they are firmly grasped in the hands of clan generals represented by Cao and Xiahou. When using foreign generals, Cao Cao, who is known as a magnificent person, is even worse than the monarchs of Wu and Shu.

One feature of Cao Wei's war was that he never allowed foreign generals to lead the army alone, even if he was the so-called five-son general, he basically had no chance to lead the army alone. This situation continued until the end of Jian'an, when the first generation of Cao and Xiahou generals were leading the way. No one was available, so the ban was lifted slightly under the urgency. However, as soon as the policy of allowing foreign generals to lead the army alone was relaxed, Yu Jin, who was alone in the seven armies, was flooded and besieged and forced to surrender to Shu... I really don't know whether to praise Cao Cao's policy or regret.

Xiahou Dun was the first person under Cao Cao and the general of the Cao army. Although this person suffered more defeats and won fewer victory in his life, he eventually became the general general of Cao Wei's national troops. His importance to Cao Cao was nothing but magnificent.

It was about Guan and Zhang to Liu Bei; it was about Zhou Yu to Sun Ce.

Each force can be divided into three types of people. Take the Cao general as an example: one person can be brought over, such as Le Jin, Li Dian, and Han Hao; the other person can keep him neutral, such as Yu Jin, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, and Shi Huan; there is another person who can do everything you can to insulate you in your life. One such person can kill the other, such as Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, and Cao Chun...

Killing a Cao family, the Xiahou general is more powerful than annihilation of 10,000 Cao troops. It is said that breaking one finger is worse than hurting ten fingers. If you successfully kill Xiahou Dun, it will not only be a problem of breaking your fingers, but a broken arm!

It is obviously not reliable to sneak into the heavily guarded military camp to assassinate Xiahou Dun, and it is too risky, but taking advantage of the opportunity to snipe at the time of Xiahou Dun and Lu Bu's army, it is worth a try.

Snipe Xiahou Dun! Even though Ma Han, who has been through many battles and repeatedly killed celebrities from the Three Kingdoms, was also excited.

He did it right away. Ma Han first climbed a peak more than ten miles away. After visualizing the terrain around the Cao army camp, combined with the direction of Lu Bu and the Salan army's most likely attack, he demarcated a area that was most suitable for the battlefield. Then, based on the number of Cao army's troops, the area occupied per capita was calculated, and the position of the main generals often stayed in this era, and roughly estimated the position of Xiahou Dun's flag when the two armies fought.

Finally, based on the obtained data, Ma Han found a speechless sniper point - a twenty-foot-high earth slope 800 meters away.

Eight hundred meters! Six hundred fifty steps! This is so amazing!

The effective range of the Demon Eye Bow can indeed reach that far, but shooting far and accurate are two different things. Although Ma Han has made great progress in archery recently, it is impossible to kill a specific target at this amazing distance. Even if God helps, Xiahou Dun appears there on time, and the weather is sunny and windless, he can successfully avoid the Cao army's squadron and shoot the arrow smoothly. According to Ma Han himself, the chance of success will not exceed 20%.

However, this kind of good thing that is small and has a big return. Even if it only has 20% chance of doing nothing, it is worth a try.

Before this, Ma Han had never sniped such a far target - Huo Shao Ke Bi Neng Tin. Although the range was over 1,000 meters, it was just aimless scattering. However, because of the experience of shooting twenty arrows in a row, Ma Han had a certain understanding of the requirements for long-range launches.

Ultra-long-range arrows are different from general. First, they must be long enough to maintain a long and stable flight; second, the weight is appropriate, not too light or too heavy; third, the use of special three-wing feathers can keep the arrows in a spiral state when flying in the air. This is the most stable flight state and can maximize the hit rate.

Among the two types of arrows that Ma Han has always equipped, pure iron heavy arrows are obviously not good, and the flying arrows are slightly lighter, so he can only make a special arrow on the spot. Although this special arrow is very demanding, it is not easy to make by hand, and it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, if it is just one arrow, it is still fine - sniper, whether it is successful or failure, Ma Han only has one chance to take action.

Suddenly, the grass was full of ropes, and a thin body jumped down. Amid the sound of everyone pulling their blades, he knelt down to Li Dian and said, "Report to Mr. Dian, a group of soldiers came to the west, like Lu Bu's Puyang soldiers."

Ma Han stopped the arrow in his hand, Li Dian put down the bamboo slips in his hand, looked at each other, and raised his clothes.

Everyone walked along the deep ditch for a long time, climbed over two earth slopes, and looked out from a gap several meters above the ground. Sure enough, they saw about dozens of soldiers, dragging weapons, and under the surveillance of a group of Cao's whistle and cavalry, coming to the gate of Cao's camp and kneeling down together.

"We are all soldiers under the tent of the lieutenant Zhechong, guarding Puyang and Lu Bu besieged the city. The enemy was too many and we were few, so we had to surrender. Now, taking advantage of the thief's slack guards and fleeing with all the brothers. I am willing to return to the lieutenant's command and ask the lieutenant to include it!"

"I beg the captain to include it!"

Ma Han and Li Dian looked at each other in surprise, and they were actually Puyang deserters - it's not that they were so surprised, because in the past few days, they only heard the contingents bringing back Zhencheng and Cao's camp from time to time. It's normal for weak enemies to face strong enemies to appear. But Puyang actually has deserters, and they are fleeing to Cao's camp, which is rare.

The Zhechong lieutenant mentioned by these deserters refers to Xiahou Dun. Xiahou Dun was the prefect of Dongjun with the Zhechong lieutenant. Most civil officials called him the prefect or envoy, while his command was called the lieutenant.

So, how would Xiahou Dun treat these Puyang soldiers who fled?

Soon, the gate opened, and a team of Cao soldiers came out one after another, confiscating all the weapons of the surrendered soldiers of Puyang, but they were not tied up and taken into the camp.

Ma Han suddenly turned his head and asked Li Dian: "What would he do if Mancheng was Xiahou Yuanrang?"

Li Dian heard Ma Han's implication and said without hesitation: "When this is extraordinary, I will personally comfort it to motivate the followers."

"Good words!" Ma Han smiled with his palm, grabbed the special arrow that was nearly completed in his hand, aimed at the sunny sunshine, and his eyes narrowed-
Chapter completed!
