Chapter 221 The drums of war rumble

A dressed in an ordinary black suit, a sheathless sword, and a tired thin horse walking alone. This is all the belongings around Xu Wuming. As an assassin, these are enough. Without taking off the heavy disguise, there is no need to be careful about Ji Ji's guarding the gazes around him. Xu Wuming, who put on the assassin's outfit again, looked extremely relaxed.

"This is me, an assassin with clear grudges in the world." One man and one sword, holding a sword in the world was Xu Wuming's dream. Now, he had already paid off his favor with Gao Chong and his face was relaxed, fighting for hegemony, the country, the people, and the world have nothing to do with him.

"I am not Xu De now. My name is Xu Wuming. Xu Wuming's name seems to be famous in the Xu family's unknown place-!" Looking up at the sunset in the west, Xu Wuming felt a lot of emotion.

A single horse traveling west with a green shirt, my home is everywhere in the world! Xu Wuming, who returned to his freedom, did not know that behind him, the angry Sima Yi was leading three hundred soldiers to chase him.

In Yecheng, Sima Yi, who had been empty, vented all his anger on the soldiers guarding the city. The whip that was raising strength was like a poisonous snake, leaving deep blood marks on the faces of innocent soldiers.

"Chasing, don't let Xu De escape from Tongguan!" Sima Yi urged his soldiers to chase him, while struggling to slap his exhausted mount. Fleeing west. The careful Sima Yi's first reaction was that Xu De was likely to defect to Xiliang, so he decided to rush to block Tongguan before Xu De.

However, this time Sima Yi miscalculated.

After Xu Wuming left Yecheng, he leisurely followed Taihang along the path between Wangwu and the mountains. He walked slowly, traveling slowly when he met the mountains and the water. This slow way of walking was completely beyond Sima Yi's expectations.

Before becoming a spy, Xu Wuming was an excellent assassin. The reputation of killing the little overlord Sun Ce was enough to make him famous. An assassin could not cherish his life. A successful assassin had to hang his head around his waist at all times. After fulfilling his wish, Xu Wuming only had a grudge in his heart, and only wait was left.

Bingzhou, Huguan.

Sima Yi, who was empty in Tongguan, sent several scouts to follow Xu Wuming's journey at all costs. It was not until five days later that he suddenly realized that the original target had fallen behind.

"Xu Xiaoli, I want to see how you escaped from heaven?" Sima Yi stood haggardly at the Huguan Pass, his eyes were covered with bloodshot, and his expression was tired and pale. After all, a human body was not iron-clad, let alone Sima Yi, or Cao Ren and Cao Hong, who were accustomed to horseback, could not help but toss for four or five days.

Fortunately, all this suffering is about to end.

Because Sima Yi saw the front of the pass not far away, each man and his horse were staggering.

"My boys, follow me to capture the enemy!" Sima Yi shouted loudly, and infinite excitement flashed in his eyes. Taking down Gao Pet and setting up the lord Cao Cao, the biggest and most dangerous secret "Wu Gou" around him. Such a contribution is enough to slaughter ten thousand enemies.

Looking at the pass gate gradually opened under the sunset and the countless enemy soldiers huddled out, Xu Wuming actually smiled. His face was calm and open, as if all this was already under his expectations.

"It's time to come, it's finally here!" Xu Wuming reached out and pulled out the sword from his back, and put it in his hand. At this moment, there was no one else in his eyes except this sword.

The sword is in the same place, and the sword is broken and the person is dead. This is the fate of the assassin.

"Xu De, do you still have to resist now?" Sima Yi looked at Xu Wuming's every move coldly. He didn't understand why Xu Wuming had to resist meaninglessly in the face of a result that had no chance of winning.

"Sima Zhubo, why are you so haggard? Could it be that you are overworked at night? If you continue like this, your life will not last long!" Xu Wuming smiled slightly and said to Sima Yi who was furious and intercepted him.

Sima Yi was furious when he heard the sarcastic meaning of Xu Wuming's words. He shouted, "Hmph, since you are obsessed with it, you will still be honest and not honest when I capture you. Men, go ahead--." Hearing Sima Yi's call, the soldiers who were eager to make contributions could not hold back and rushed over with swords and guns.

The assassin is a master of fighting alone. When he saw Xu Wuming calmly pulling out the sword on his back, Sima Yi did not intend to lead the way. Anyway, the benefits of being a large number of people and a large number of people are beneficial. Even if Xu Wuming has three heads and six arms, he would not be able to attack more than 300 strong soldiers.

"Kill!" Xu Wuming shouted, facing the crowd of people approaching. Even though he knew he would die, he should work hard. This is the bloodiness that Jiangdong men should have.

The cold light flashed without any fancy moves. The sharp sword light pierced into the throat of the first enemy soldier in a moment. After the strike, Xu Wuming did not stop and his body was pressed against the enemy soldier who had already swallowed. Although this abnormal behavior of not retreating but advancing temporarily made Xu Wuming avoid the swords and guns that were greeted, it also made him fall into the siege of Sima Yi's pursuers. He put down the dead bodies of thousands of incisive holes and saw the iron wall of swords and guns standing like a forest.

"Ha, I didn't expect Xu to have such a great face, and there are so many people coming to see him off at the same time!" Looking at the enemy soldiers around him, Xu Wuming suddenly laughed.

"Diet to the point of death, you have to be stubborn!" Sima Yi looked at Xu Wuming surrounded in great anger and spat hard on the ground. For him, Xu Wuming is just a beast with his hands and feet tied up, and it is only a matter of time before he is captured.

However, Xu Wuming didn't think so. He was in a desperate situation and had no idea of ​​survival. When a cavalryman who couldn't help but want to fight for his master approached again, Xu Wuming once again condensed his sword to meet him, and in an instant he stabbed another person on the horse.

The sword flowers splattered and the blood mist filled the battlefield in the fierce battle.

After killing three people in a row, Xu Wuming's sword break-.

At this time, his right arm was also cut by the enemy with a knife, and the blood-lost dizziness made him shaking.

"Take it!" Sima Yi's voice sounded from outside the encirclement.

"Jiangdongerlang only died in battle, but not captured--" Amid the laughter, Xu Wuming tried hard to wipe his neck with his broken sword with his left hand, and a foam of blood immediately fell.

In front of everyone, Xu Wuming happily poked his neck, and his life was full of vitality and death was also full of joy. Xu Wuming, neither Xu De nor Xu Wuming, would leave any traces in history. The only thing that can prove his existence is the vague title of Xu Gong's child.

On October 28, the 11th year of Jian'an, the rising sun was as bloody as the sky dyed bright red.

Yuzhou, west of Runan County, Wuyang Road.

The mighty army filled the entire road with drums rumbling and flags rushing. Even the floating clouds in the world were dispersed by the sound of drums. The wind and horses neighed. The Cao army, who was preparing for horses, crossed Wuyang and rushed straight to Huyang City, Nanyang County.

Under the Huangluo umbrella, Cao Cao squinted his eyes and sat upright on the claws Huang Feiyin, paired with a light yellow cloak, shiny golden armor, a bun, a sharp spear and more than a hundred mighty and upright guards on both sides. Even among thousands of troops, he could find the location of Cao Cao's central army at a glance.

"Zhongkang, how many miles is there in front of Wuyang City?" Cao Cao suddenly asked.

"Lord, it's less than three miles away." Xu Chu, who was closely guarding Cao Cao, was like an iron tower, as if there was endless power hidden in his strong body.

"Okay, I'll order Zi Lian and Gong Ming to march south immediately and not stay in the city for too long." Cao Cao ordered.

According to the pre-strategic strategy, Cao Cao divided the attacking troops into two left and right teams. The left army was personally commanded by him, and the commander was more than 100,000 infantry and cavalry, including the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry led by Cao Chun and Cao Xiu and Cao Zhang's Youyan Iron Cavalry, plus Cao Hong, Zhang Xiu, Xu Huang, Xu Chu and other brave generals who were brave and good at fighting. Cao Cao believed that they could break through the Huyang line within three days. The Right Army was commanded by Cao Ren, the generals of the South of the Conquest, and commanded Li Dian, Yu Jin, Lu Qian, Cai Mao and other generals, and 50,000 troops were used as a partial division to attack Xinye City on the front. The two armies combined had a total of 150,000 troops, and used 150,000 infantry and cavalry to fight Zhou Yu's 40,000 infantry and cavalry. Cao Cao felt that even if people were used to fill it, he could open a road to the south.

Of course, the adverse effects of gathering these many troops and attacks were obvious. In many cities behind, only a few old and weak soldiers were left. Even big cities like Yecheng, Nanpi, and Chenliu did not have more than one thousand guards, and other smaller cities almost became unprepared cities.

At the same time, in order to concentrate his strength, Cao Cao only deployed less than 10,000 conventional troops on the front line of Xuzhou, and with about 80,000 temporary troops stationed troops, their role was to confuse Gao Chong's attention, and to find ways to intercept Gao Chong's possible surprise attack on Xu Du. In order to achieve these two goals, he transferred the most capable adviser Sima Yi and general Le Jin, and Zang Ba to continue to stay in Pengcheng. On the battlefield on the western front, Zhong Yao, Jia Xu and Zhang He led 20,000 troops in Guanzhong to resist Ma Chao and Zhao Yun's crazy attack. Fortunately, Chang'an and Tongguan city were steep and the terrain was favorable, which made Cao Cao feel a little relieved.

In addition to the military generals, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Man Chong, Zhang Fan, Mao Jie, Sima Zhi and other civil and military officials followed Cao Cao one by one, and only Xun Yu did not follow him because he wanted to stay in the rear of the town.

"Well, Gongda, what are you talking about Gao Chong doing at this time and what are you thinking?" Cao Cao gently retracted the reins and slowed down the mount so that Xun You behind him could hear clearly.
