Cao Xiu suffered a loss at Zhang Fei's hands, and did not dare to underestimate the black-faced reckless man at this time. He ordered the tiger and leopard cavalry to retreat two miles to guard him and wait until Cao Cao came before he decided to take over.

A few hours later, Cao Cao left 30,000 soldiers in Hechi, and led the remaining 20,000 to argue.

In addition to saving the military's physical strength, Cao Cao also despises Zhang Fei for some reason.

Zhang Fei only had more than 10,000 Hu and Han soldiers, and Ruxing went to suppress the enemy and did not match.

The tiger and leopard cavalry stood neatly, and Cao Xiu took the initiative to greet Cao Cao.

"Why is Wen Lie here? How can Zhang Fei set up defenses in the next defense?"

Seeing that Cao Xiu was still in control of the troops, Cao Cao thought that Zhang Fei had arranged strict defense and Cao Xiu was the way to protect the tiger and leopard cavalry. Cao Cao felt that he had the talent of commander.

"The gate of Xiabian is closed and there is no one on the wall. I suspect Zhang Fei has a trick, so I dare not approach and take risks..." Cao Xiu lowered his head and held his fists, and was thrown on his body by a pig's urine bag in the past. The memory was really deep.

Cao Cao was also a suspicious person. He urged his horse to look at the afterimage in the distance and kept thinking about what Zhang Fei was playing.

Ordinary generals can follow military tactics, so they also follow military tactics to resolve the situation when fighting. Military generals like Zhang Fei, who are purely reckless, have no rules when they play tricks, and they are completely determined to rejoice as they want.

"Derong (Zhang Ji), you are quite familiar with Yong Liang, so you will lead an army to lead the way." Cao Cao looked at the command of Zhang Ji, the governor of Yongzhou.

"only."

Zhang was stunned when he heard this, and then he still clasped his fists to respond. He had helped Xiahou Yuanhu walk on the right side of Guan Ding Yongliang, and last year he followed Cao Hongwu to challenge Zhang Fei. He was indeed familiar with this area, but he had never been a pioneer.

When the pig urine incident happened, Zhang Ji was in Cao Hong's camp at the beginning. He tried his best to restrain himself and did not laugh. Unexpectedly, the good cycle of reincarnation in heaven became the guide.

Zhang was ordered to lead the way and urged his troops to go down the city, but he always maintained a safe distance.

The emotions of superiors can infect others, and the soldiers who lead the way are affected by Zhang Ji, become cautious and slow to act.

There was no response from the gates under the city, and no defenders appeared on the city wall.

The cold wind passed through the gaps in the city gate and made an extremely suspicious sound, which gave people a gloomy feeling in conjunction with the quiet surrounding environment.

"Get out first." Zhang Ji shouted loudly, and the soldiers in front retreated one after another.

The entrance of the city gate was covered with echoes, and the soldiers left as if they heard ghosts crying and howling, as if the defeated generals were running towards the back. Zhang could not stop him, so he could only walk back with a tough bullet.

The soldiers and horses on the road ahead suddenly ran in a panic. Xu Chu was worried that Cao Cao would make mistakes, so he led the tiger guard to line up in front of the formation.

Cao Cao looked from a distance without pursuing soldiers. Why were these soldiers so frightened? He frowned and fell into deep thought.

Zhang Ji rode his horse and came to see him, saying, "General Wen Lie said nothing, the city gate of Xiabian was closed, and there were no defenders on the city. I was afraid that Zhang Fei had any conspiracy, so I returned the decision to win the King of Wei."

"Derong (Zhang Ji) is really cautious, so he didn't try to open the city gate?" Cao Cao was speechless after hearing this. Cao Xiu had already said it before. Did I just send you to verify the authenticity of his words?

"Uh... Zhang Fei is very tricky, I..."

"Hmph, when did Zhang Fei also make you afraid? If this person really had Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang's wisdom, would Liu Bei be drifting all over the world in the first half of his life?"

Cao Cao snorted coldly and led the army forward. Zhang Ji, Cao Xiu followed him with shame.

When you walk to the city gate, the silent city in winter creates a strange atmosphere.

Cao Cao asked Xu Chu to lead the Tiger Guard to explore again, and Xu Chu Wuyu walked in the front. The Tiger Guards also had sharp eyes, and they were already better than Zhang Ji in terms of momentum.

Xu Chu put his ear on the city gate and slapped it. When he felt that there was no response inside, he called two tiger guards to push it inward with force.

The wooden door shaft creaked as the ring was creaking. When the door opened, the cold wind blew the dust on the face, and the tiger guards who came forward instantly ate the dirt.

There was no one on Xiabian Street. Cao Xiu was watching from side to side immediately, and finally whispered to Cao Cao: "King of Wei, such a strange image, could it be that Zhang Fei left an ambush?"

Cao Cao frowned. He remembered that Puyang and Lu Bu were fighting that day. At that time, he was almost captured alive. After thinking for a while, he pointed to the front with a whip and said, "One time, another moment, even if Zhang Fei had ambush, how big can his mobs turn? Let's occupy the city gate first, and then choose the desperate men to enter the city to explore. I don't believe that I will lose to the black guy."

"Yi." Liu Ye, Cao Xiu and others all clasped their fists.

Cao's army struggled for two hours after the debate, and finally found that there was no sign of Zhang Fei's ambush. The reason why the people in the city did not dare to go out was because Zhang Fei transported food and made a mess. They were worried that their property would be robbed, so they all closed their doors and did not dare to go out.

After entering Xiabian, Cao Hong's old illness relapsed. He charged more than a dozen wealthy families in the city with a conviction and took away the other party's family wealth and beautiful maids to enjoy himself. Unfortunately, he was taken away by Zhang Fei in the end. Xiabian's treasury is now cleaner than Cao Cao's face.

Zhang Fei rewarded the robbed materials and beautiful maids to his subordinates, so that the soldiers were willing to fight guerrillas with him and maintained a very high combat effectiveness.

Cao Cao was furious by Zhang Fei. Just as he was about to find Zhang Fei to peel and get cramps, the scout found Zhang Fei in the south of the debate, and it was initially confirmed that there were only a few hundred people.

"This black guy is so arrogant, who is willing to destroy him for the sake of the orphan?"

Cao Cao slapped the table and pointed at the generals in the hall to ask questions. Because Zhang Fei had long been famous, no one volunteered to the generals of the army, and everyone lowered their heads.

"Zhongkang, can you dare to fight Zhang Fei?"

Cao Cao thought that the enemy of thousands of people was indeed not an idiot. He was afraid that only Hu Hou Xu Chu could fight, so he directly pointed out despite the embarrassment of the scene.

"I will be willing to kill Zhang Fei's head and come back to offer him to the King of Wei." Xu Chu's face was not afraid and his words were strong.

Cao Cao nodded with relief, "Zhang Fei seems to be diligent, Wen Lie, I will go with you with ten thousand soldiers and horses, and I hope you can bring back good news."

"only."

Cao Xiu saw that Xu Chu was following the army, at least some people faced Zhang Fei head-on, and he had more confidence in winning.

Xu Chu and Cao Xiu went to find Zhang Fei to fight. Zhang Fei cursed a few words and then fled into the southern mountains. The Cao army bullied the soldiers brought by Zhang Fei and chased them relentlessly.

Zhang Fei kept a certain distance from Cao's army. Cao Xiu and Xu Chu walked around two or three valleys, and someone suddenly threw stones on the left and right hillsides.

"Zhang Fei has indeed set up an ambush here, so we should quickly withdraw from the valley." Cao Xiu was about to withdraw his troops when he saw this.

Xu Chu grabbed Cao Xiu's reins and said, "Join the army and listen to me. I see that there are only few rocks falling on the slope. It must be Zhang Fei pretending to be a ghost. If you leave, you may be scolded by the King of Wei. Don't forget the false alarm of our argument."

Cao Xiu was stunned when he heard this. Could it be that Xu Chu was watching Qing?

"General Xu made a reasonable statement and ordered the entire army to continue to move forward cautiously, but he also had to send someone to report to the King of Wei. After all, Zhang Fei had not had a large-scale ambush, and it was unimaginable if there was a large-scale ambush." ​​Cao Xiu stroked his beard and analyzed.
