"who?"

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand what Tian Tian's sudden inquiry was about. When Liu Xuan asked again: "Who is the general in command of the Yellow Turban Thieves?"

"The thief who captured Xuzhou will be named Xu Chu. According to Zi Yang, he is a member of the Xu family in Qiao County, Qiao State! The thief who blocked the road and prevented Guan Yu and Zhang Fei from going south to rescue Xuzhou will be named Dian Wei!"

Liu Xuan originally thought that he had heard wrongly, but after Cao Cao's detailed explanation, he was sure that these two people were indeed the Xu Chu and Dian Wei that he knew.

"Why did these two people end up in the Yellow Turban Army?"

He could still understand that Dian Wei was recruited by the Yellow Turban Thief. After all, Dian Wei was not from a good background in this era, and he had a criminal record. Even if he wanted to join the army, he still had to see whether he dared to take him in - of course.

Most of the princes who command the army don't care about this.

And his extraordinary martial prowess will definitely be valued by some people. If he is bumped into by that old ghost of Nanhua, he will definitely not let such a fierce general go. If he uses some tricks to fool him, it would not be surprising to trick him into the Yellow Turban Army.

.

But what happened to Xu Chu? Even though Xu Chu gave people the impression of being a rough and arrogant man, Xu Chu’s background was not bad, and the Xu family in Qiao County was also a well-known local family. These people were the most taboo about the Yellow Turbans, so why didn’t they get along with them?

Nan Hua fought to the end, but turned out to be effective?

After thinking about it, the only explanation is that Nan Hua used some means, and what's more concerning is whether this means that some of the concepts of the Yellow Turban Bandits are changing - they no longer loot big households without discrimination, but win over them appropriately.

?

Liu Xuan's eyes narrowed and he realized that if the Yellow Turban Army continues to develop like this, the harm will be much greater than it is now. The Yellow Turban Army must be eliminated this year.

Little did Cao Cao know that just because of the two names he reported, the emperor was determined to destroy the Yellow Turbans as soon as possible.

At this time, what he was worried about was the sudden attack of the Yellow Turban bandit army.

The terrifying combat power unleashed.

He had long expected that the Yellow Turbans would attack Xuzhou, and he also felt that Xuzhou would definitely not be able to withstand the Yellow Turbans' desperate attack. However, this was based on the fact that the Yellow Turbans took advantage of the winter to shrink their defenses, and then launched a frenzied attack on Xuzhou regardless of losses.

under the premise.

Unexpectedly, the Yellow Turban Thief was quiet this winter, until the spring came and he began to adjust his layout to prepare for a new round of offensive against the Yellow Turban Thief Army. The Yellow Turban Thief Army suddenly launched an offensive in a very short period of time.

Here they occupied the remaining counties in Xuzhou.

Xuzhou Tao Qian had almost no power to resist. He just sent a letter asking for help in a hurry. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were the closest, immediately raised troops to prepare to go south for rescue, but they fell before they could catch up with Xuzhou.

The sudden burst of powerful fighting power of the Yellow Turban Army is worthy of attention, and Dian Wei who suddenly went north to stop Guan Yu and Zhang Fei is also worthy of attention!

According to the news he received, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were unable to quickly break through the Yellow Turbans' obstruction. In addition to having too few troops to break through the defense line composed of tens of thousands of thieves, Cao Cao also valued his personal bravery in this battle.

was offset!

That Dian Wei was able to fight Zhang Fei for dozens of rounds without losing. This situation not only surprised Guan Yu, but also immediately realized the importance of this situation and sent a letter to Cao Cao immediately. Thanks to

Guan Yu saw the opportunity quickly, allowing Cao Cao to make timely adjustments - the troops and horses everywhere were temporarily stabilized. He had to first find out whether Nanhua had cultivated a large number of powerful generals, or was it just one or two?

At the same time, in the place where Langya County and Dongguan County are adjacent, two soldiers and horses are facing each other in the distance. If you look at it from a high place, one side has many soldiers and horses, and the camp stretches for a long distance. It just looks chaotic, and the soldiers among them are passing through.

They were all tattered and tattered, and they might just be carrying sickles, hoes, sticks and the like, and there were even quite a few of them hanging around in the camp. It hardly looked like a military camp.

The other camp fifty miles away from it, although not as powerful as the opposite one, was well organized, and the soldiers in it also had high morale, bright clothes and well-equipped weapons.

However, there were shouts and curses from time to time in the camp, which showed that the commander of the army did not seem to have a very good temper.

"What kind of bullshit order is this? Are you asking us to guard a dangerous position? Why don't you let me lead the troops to rush into the camp opposite and kill him. My second brother will lead the troops and rush straight to Xiapi!"

Guan Yu sat aside. Although he didn't jump around like Zhang Fei and yelled, his face wasn't very good-looking either. He felt as if he was being looked down upon.

However, he could still see the reason for Cao Cao's arrangement.

First of all, not to mention that Xuzhou has been occupied by the Yellow Turban bandit army, there is no doubt that he brought troops and horses to capture Xiapi. On the contrary, because the two of them went deep alone, they were completely separated. At that time, even if Cao Cao wanted to support him, he would not be able to support him.

impossible.

Moreover, he did not have many soldiers and horses in his hands. He and Zhang Fei together only brought more than 2,000 soldiers. Although these people were not responsible for the garrison, patrol and public security behind them, they did not represent the soldiers of the counties and countries hiding behind them.

He will also go south with him - His Majesty stipulated from the beginning that the county soldiers were only responsible for the local area, and the generals were not allowed to mobilize the county soldiers to fight with the imperial army.

The security patrols in the war zone are all the responsibility of the Forbidden Army soldiers. They will be replaced after the situation stabilizes and the county soldiers are organized.

With more than 2,000 soldiers and horses, even if Xuzhou is successfully conquered all the way, they can't arrange garrison. After all, Xuzhou is a state, not three or two counties.

Another point is that the man named Dian Wei on the opposite side is actually so powerful. After the third brother had a battle with him a while ago, he also went up to compete with that man in person two days ago. It can be seen that

This man himself is extremely powerful, and it's not just the reason why he obtained the strange magic formula.

Guan Yu was very concerned about the presence of such generals in the Yellow Turban Army. He and Cao Cao had the same worry: Does the other side have more powerful generals? If so, it means that his biggest advantage has been offset. If

The other party sent a few men to entangle himself and his third brother, so the two thousand soldiers and horses under his command would soon be submerged among tens of thousands of crazy yellow scarf thieves.

"There are too few soldiers and horses. Even if there are only three thousand more, there is no need to be so cowardly!"

Guan Yu felt that as long as he had five thousand Forbidden Army soldiers under his command, he would dare to challenge Zhang Fei head-on, and he could guarantee that he would not fall into the siege of the Yellow Turban bandits.

Five thousand Forbidden Army soldiers, even without him and Zhang Fei leading the way, still have enough combat power to win against the crazy Yellow Turban bandit army. If there were ten thousand, he would even dare to say that he would annihilate all the thieves on the opposite side.

Soldiers. But now...two thousand...

"It would be great if the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry could still stay here."

But Cao Cao is not to blame for this. Cao Cao only has a few soldiers and horses, and he still has to defend Yanzhou, which is really difficult to use. Moreover, if he hadn't divided his troops and advanced quickly, Taishan, Dongguan and other places would not have been able to recover so quickly!

After hearing this, Zhang Fei let out a depressed breath, then took out the wine he had brought with him and took a big gulp - wine is also a military material, especially during the winter, when soldiers need to use wine to warm up.

But in the hands of General Zhang San, any military use is nonsense. Anyway, he drank when he was happy, drank when he was angry, and wanted to drink when he had nothing to do! If Guan Yu hadn't been watching from the side, he would have drank and fell down -

It's a bit difficult to look at it now. It's not easy to drink this kind of drink with Zhang Fei's current physique.

Just as they were irritated, a burst of yelling and cursing suddenly came from outside the camp. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were stunned, and after looking at each other, there was a burst of anger in their hearts.

"If our brothers don't go looking for that guy, do they really think we are afraid? Today we have to show him how powerful he is!"

While cursing, he asked the personal guards to equip their horses and then rode out of the camp with Guan Yu, setting up a battle array to confront the yellow turban army coming from the opposite side.

The Yellow Turban bandit army opposite was huge and densely packed with people at first glance, but neither Guan Yu nor Zhang Fei paid much attention to this group of guys who were worse than the militiamen. The two of them focused their attention on the people in front of them.

A big man.

This man is more than eight feet tall. According to His Majesty, he is about 1.9 meters tall. He is slightly taller than Zhang Fei. He has a thick waist and a majestic appearance. He really looks like someone who cannot be underestimated.

Like other yellow turban thieves, this man did not wear armor, but only wore a short jacket. The front of his upper body was open at the beginning of spring.

His head was wrapped in a yellow scarf, and a big sword in his hand was shining with cold light. He was sitting on the horse and kept cursing. When he saw his brother coming out, he immediately asked: "Which one is Zhang Fei?"

"This is Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide, who are you?" Zhang Fei had never seen this man before, but his posture was no worse than Dian Wei, who had fought with him a while ago.

"I am Xu Chu and Xu Zhongkang! You, the lackey of the imperial court, why don't you come and die soon!"

As soon as the name was announced, Zhang Fei realized that this man was the Yellow Turban general who had captured Xuzhou some time ago. Today, he looked like a real person. However, the second half of the sentence made Zhang Fei furious. He had a cricket spear in his hand.

With a wave of his hand, he slapped his horse and rushed out of the formation. At the same time, he cursed loudly: "How dare the traitor to be so rampant? I'll take a spear from your third master!"

Xu Chu didn't expect that this black-headed guy could be such a hot-tempered guy. He cursed a few words and rushed out. He was overjoyed and at the same time, he remembered what Dian Wei said to him. He didn't hold back any force when he struck.

, and at the same time, he used the weird magic formula that Nan Hua taught him, a yellow light flashed all over his body, and the big knife in his hand picked up a piece of yellow light and slashed it towards the door in front of Zhang Fei.

Seeing this, Zhang Fei turned the snake spear in his hand, raised it directly, and had a head-on confrontation with the sword.

There was only a loud noise, and both of them were shocked. When the horse passed by the wrong horse, they couldn't make a second move. They thought in unison: "It's really tricky!"

Turning around, he saw that Xu Chu was doing the same thing, but the man actually grinned and laughed twice. He then raised the knife with one hand and tore his body with a short blow with the other hand, exposing his muscular upper body.

"Come again!" He shouted, slapped his horse and wielded his sword to kill again.

Zhang Fei was not willing to be outdone and rode up to meet him. After the two horses passed each other, Zhang Fei was surprised to find that this guy seemed to be more powerful. He wondered for a while: "Can taking off clothes still have this effect?"!
