Cao Hong raised his gun, held the ax that was coming from Xu Huang, glared at Xu Huang and said: "Despicable!"
"The two armies are fighting, each relying on his own ability, Zi Lian, times have changed a long time ago. You can win without showing off your bravery!" Xu Huang said in his mouth, but he didn't listen to the big ax in his hand. For a moment, the sharp axe
Gang overflowed, and the ground soon became unbearable due to the fight between the two, and numerous cracks appeared.
Cao Hong was furious and even more anxious. Facing a master like Xu Huang, he did not dare to look back to see the battle. However, the sound of weapons clashing behind him and the shouts of killing soldiers from both sides made Cao Hong anxious. In addition,
His martial arts skills were not as good as Xu Huang's, but Xu Huang was obviously determined not to let him go back.
"Bang~"
There was another collision. The two sides passed each other on the wrong horse and were out of position. Cao Hong turned his horse around and saw that his army had been breached by the enemy. Without Cao Hong in charge, the deputy general Cao Ren sent to him was obviously not as good as Deputy General Xu Huang.
, coupled with the opponent's calculated and unintentional surprise attack, Cao Hong's troops suffered a hidden loss. At this moment, the battle formation was broken and the soldiers began to collapse.
"Xu Huang!" Cao Hong's eyes turned red and he roared. He fired the spear in his hand as fiercely as a spear. He was full of energy, not caring about himself at all, as if he wanted to die with Xu Huang.
Now that Xu Huang was sure of victory, he naturally did not want to fight the opponent. After several attempts to avoid it, Cao Hong sat down and his horse suddenly accelerated, rushing out of Xu Huang's range of achievements and fighting back to the army. Unfortunately, his forward army had been defeated at this moment.
Even if Cao Hong comes back, there is nothing he can do to save his life.
He saw a young enemy general holding a copper stick and leading his troops to slaughter his own soldiers in the chaos. Cao Hong rushed forward with red eyes. Without saying a word, he stabbed him when he was distracted.
Wu Shuang was startled by the sudden attack, and quickly turned sideways to avoid it, but Cao Hong's spear still shattered his armor. Fortunately, he had the power of Ten Thousand Army at this moment. Although Cao Hong's spear was fierce, it was not as powerful as Ten Thousand Army.
With the blessing of his own strength, Wu Shuang was already exhausted and could only pierce the opponent's armor and hurt people, but was unable to kill him.
Wu Shuang is also a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. As one of the first batch of students in the Qiren Hall, he was born in poverty. In order to set an example, Chu Nan enhanced his divine talent into natural divine power. Since his debut, he has fought many battles with Chu Nan.
He prides himself on his bravery, but he is not afraid at all when facing a veteran general like Cao Hong. The moment the opponent withdraws his gun, he picks up the copper stick and hits Cao Hong in the head.
Cao Hong quickly raised his gun to fight.
Boom~
Another collision without any fancy. Wu Shuang wanted to kill a veteran general to prove his bravery. This stick gave him enough strength and carried the power of an army.
Cao Hong felt his arms go numb and lost all consciousness for a short time. When he sat down, his horse seemed unable to withstand the huge force. He heard the neighing sound, and his four hooves sank directly into the ground, up to a foot deep.
"What a boy!" Cao Hong held back his anger. He couldn't defeat Xu Huang, but now even a young junior dared to blow up in front of him. The muscles around him suddenly swelled, and a giant ape appeared behind him.
The beast's luster burst out from the center, the tiger roared, and the spear in his hand was thrown out again.
"Well done!" Wu Shuang was not afraid and raised his stick to fight.
But when he saw the spear being thrown towards him, Wu Shuang's eyes blurred. The spear that was thrown down was only a shadow. Wu Shuang, who had used all his strength to catch the spear, only felt a sense of emptiness.
Knowing something was wrong, he quickly wanted to put his stick away and defend, but there was no time.
Cao Hong put away his gun and then drew it out like lightning. He stabbed out three shots in succession in an instant. The gun made waves of tiny sonic booms in the air and accurately hit his chest.
The first shot, the second shot, the breastplate shattered, leaving a shallow crater on the chest. At the third shot, Wu Shuang used an iron plate bridge to narrowly avoid the shot, but Cao Hong followed closely and lowered the gun.
pressure.
"Pfft~"
Wu Shuang's horse's skull was directly crushed, its limbs were severed, and some of its strength was relieved, allowing Wu Shuang to escape with his life. However, immediately after, Cao Hong drew back his gun and gathered momentum. The next shot would make it difficult for Wu Shuang to dodge.
.
My life is at an end!
Wu Shuang stared at Cao Hong as if he was resigned to his fate. He knew that no matter how hard it was for him to escape, even with the strength of an army, there was still such a terrifying gap between himself and the general, and he was really unwilling to accept it.
Just when Cao Hong was about to fire another shot, a strong sense of crisis came into his heart. This kind of military commander who has fought many battles has an extremely keen intuition about danger. After practicing visualization, this intuition can be
Much clearer.
Cao Hong decisively gave up on killing Wu Shuang, reined in his horse, sat down and the horse stood up. An ax slashed across the horse, leaving a deep ravine on the ground that spread three feet before disappearing.
Xu Huang is here!
Cao Hong didn't look. The only person on the battlefield who could pose such a fatal threat to him was Xu Huang.
He immediately turned his horse's head and galloped away.
Xu Huang, who came from behind, couldn't catch up and looked at Wu Shuang.
"The last general is incompetent and failed to stop the thieves!" Wu Shuang stood up in embarrassment and said to Xu Huang dejectedly.
"How many years have you been practicing martial arts? It's rare for you to survive against him." Xu Huang looked at the retreating Yuan Jun and did not pursue him again, but began to rectify his troops.
Wu Shuang's martial arts skills are considered top-notch among ordinary generals. He has good talents, but after all, he comes from a poor family. People like Cao Hong have practiced martial arts since childhood, and when they go to the battlefield, they already have good martial arts skills.
As for Wu Shuang, even if his talent is good, he has passed the best stage of laying the foundation. To put it bluntly, if the two talents are equal, Wu Shuang may not be able to catch up with Cao Hong in his life. The foundation is missing, and he is working just as hard.
.
Of course, in more than ten years, Cao Hong will be old and exhausted, and Wu Shuang may still have some chances. However, now that the world has changed, the power of heaven and earth has become stronger. According to the Lord, human lifespan has also been extended, so theoretically,
Unless Wu Shuang encounters something unexpected in his life, it will be difficult for him to catch up with a famous general like Cao Hong.
It's good to be a second-rate top player. Being first-rate depends on chance.
Of course, Xu Huang didn't know who was stronger and who was weaker in talent between the two. If Wu Shuang was far more talented than Cao Hong, it would be possible for him to reach the top level and compete with Cao Hong, provided that Cao Hong survived until then.
Xu Huang knew very well that the Cao family and Chu Nan were mortal enemies. As long as Chu Nan was dominant, it would be difficult for the Cao family...at least the direct descendants of the Cao family to survive. This was why he killed Cao Hong as soon as he saw him.
There is no need to be polite to the generals of the Cao family.
"General, our army won the first battle, do you want to continue the pursuit?" Wu Shuang covered his chest and looked at Xu Huang and said.
"Chase!" Xu Huang nodded. He was the pioneer of this trip. He built roads across mountains and rivers and built bridges. Even without Cao Ren, he would continue walking until he could no longer walk.
After a slight repair, the army set out again. On the other side, Cao Hong led his defeated army back to Chaoge. Naturally, he had to be scolded by Cao Ren.
"You are also a battle-hardened veteran, how could you fall for that Xu Huang's trick so easily!?" Cao Ren looked at Cao Hong and cursed.
"I was reminiscing with him, and I thought we still had some feelings for each other after all, but I didn't expect that Xu Huang, who was not a son of a man, would use this to attack him!" Cao Hong was furious.
"Have you forgotten what my brother said about Xu Huang back then?" Cao Ren sighed: "My brother said back then that Xu Huang was a cold-blooded person and would not be influenced by emotions. If my Cao family were here, then Xu Huang would be me.
Loyal ministers of the Cao family can be used with confidence, but if one day our Cao family falls, then Xu Huang will leave after he feels that he has tried his best. Now that Xu Huang has voted for Chu Nan, that means that in Xu Huang's view,
You have already repaid my kindness to the Cao family, and even if we meet on the battlefield, I will never show mercy!"
Cao Hong thought for a moment and realized that Cao Cao had actually said such a thing back then. He smiled bitterly, cupped his fists and said, "The general is incompetent and fell into Xu Huang's scheme. Please punish me, general!"
Cao Ren nodded: "Since I know my mistake, I will punish you with fifty military sticks to correct the morale of the army!"
"General, this is inappropriate!" Sima Yi advised from the side: "Winning or losing is a common thing for military officers. Now that the war is imminent, it is the time to employ men. If the general makes a mistake, he will be severely punished. Then who among the soldiers will dare to use his life?"
"If he were defeated head-on, it would be because his skills were inferior to others, but this time he was careless and was taken advantage of by Xu Huang. If he is not severely punished, how can he improve the morale of the army?" Cao Ren frowned.
"There are many ways to correct the morale of the army, but it is never wise to punish one's own generals severely. I think it is best to record the mistake first, and then make meritorious service. If the meritorious service can be achieved, the merits and demerits will be balanced. If in the end it cannot be done, then we can do it again.
It is not too late to impose punishment. First, it will let the soldiers know that there is a chance to repent. It will not allow the soldiers to make mistakes, but it will also have a deterrent effect." After Sima Yi finished speaking, he added: "Of course, I have never been on the battlefield.
I dare not say that what I said is definitely correct."
Cao Ren sighed and said, "Sir, you are too humble. I have always admired your talent."
After saying that, he looked at Cao Hong and said, "I'll let you off for the sake of Mr.'s face first. But if you make mistakes like this again, don't blame me for not thinking about my brotherhood!"
"Don't worry, brother, if mistakes like this happen again, I will die on the battlefield!" Cao Hong puffed up his chest and finally gave Sima Yi a fist salute as a thank you for his words of help.
"Sit down!" Cao Ren waved his hand and asked him to sit back in his seat. Then he looked at the generals and said, "The battle was frustrated. Xu Huang has already arrived outside Chaoge City. You all know what he is capable of.
Is there any way to defeat the enemy?"
There was a ball of anger suppressed in his heart. If it was Huang Zhong who defeated Cao Hong, Cao Ren would not be angry. After all, victory and defeat are common matters for military strategists, and Huang Zhong was indeed fierce, especially in martial arts. He was the bravest among the three armies.
It's not a shame.
But it was Xu Huang who defeated Cao Hong. This made them, the former generals of Cao's camp, very angry. They felt like they had been betrayed and were defeated by the traitor in the process of revenge. They couldn't bear it.
"General, I am willing to fight!" Le Jin stood up and clasped his fists at Cao Ren.
"Okay!" Cao Ren nodded, gave him a command arrow and said, "Don't be careless this time. We have no friendship with Xu Huang anymore."
"Here!" Le Jin took the command arrow, turned around and went out...
