How could reinforcements come at this time? Zhao Yun once wondered if he was hearing hallucinations due to his severe injuries.
Logically speaking, no reinforcements should appear in this situation. The so-called palace army is an abandoned army. Since it has been abandoned, how can the commander send another army to rescue, only to increase the casualties of his own army?
What's more, they sent out extremely precious cavalry.
But the sound of horse hooves coming from the south became clearer and clearer as it got closer and closer.
This is not an illusion, there is indeed a cavalry unit rushing to the battlefield.
Looking back to the south, Zhao Yun suddenly saw a group of knights in Cao's armor galloping towards them. The leader was Xia Houyuan.
Cao Cao brought a thousand cavalry with him on this trip and returned them to Xia Houyuan's command. Looking at the situation, Xia Houyuan brought all these thousand men, obviously to rescue Guan Yu and Zhao Yun.
There is no reason. Seeing those thousand knights approaching the battlefield quickly, Zhao Yun couldn't help but wonder. Cao Cao didn't have many cavalry, and these thousand cavalry were considered his treasures. How could he throw them into this desperate situation so easily?
?
But now is not the time to think too much. Although this thousand-man cavalry team cannot change the situation, if they rush into the battlefield, the possibility of Zhao Yun and Guan Yu escaping may be increased.
This made Zhao Yun feel happy.
"Yun Chang, reinforcements are coming, there is hope for our survival!" Zhao Yun could be heard shouting to Guan Yu. Hope suddenly appeared in a desperate situation, and no one could help himself.
At this time, Guan Yu's spirit was already muddled. He almost relied on his body's instinctive reaction to kill the enemy. He didn't even hear the rumble of horse hooves coming from behind. At this time, he was so drunk by Zhao Yun that his mind suddenly sobered up.
A few moments later, Guan Yu was shocked when he saw his own cavalry coming from the south.
Although these thousand cavalry are basically useless, if they rush into Yuan Shao's army, they will probably be annihilated very quickly, but at least with the interference of these thousand cavalry, I may be able to escape from this desperate situation.
It’s also unknown.
Even if the possibility of Mr. Yuan returning is zero, the intrusion of this cavalry team only increases this possibility to one, but the ants are still trying to survive. Since there is hope, we must fight for it with all our strength.
Unexpectedly, Cao Cao was so attached to love and righteousness that he sent his cavalry to rescue us who were trapped in a desperate situation. With a chance of survival in a desperate situation, Guan Yu could not help but subconsciously improve his perception of Cao Cao.
"Huh!" Although Guan Yu was already close to exhaustion, and the 82-pound Qinglong Yanyue Sword seemed to weigh 800 pounds in his hand, as long as Guan Yu didn't completely lose strength for a moment, he would always be that person.
If Guan Yunchang intimidates the three armies, he can continue to kill people!
Yuan Shao saw another cavalry force led by General Cao into the battlefield, with a look of surprise on his face. So what on earth was Cao Aman doing? He had just managed to successfully evacuate with his army, so why did he ask someone to lead such a group now?
The troops came to die? He probably didn't have many cavalry under his command. Such a cavalry team of about a thousand people was a big fortune for Cao Cao. Cao Cao threw this cavalry team into the battlefield hastily.
What's the purpose? With Cao Cao's caution, he would never do such a foolish and foolish act.
Yuan Shao thought about it over and over but couldn't figure it out.
In fact, Cao Cao did not want to sacrifice these thousand people in vain. It can be said that he made this decision through gritted teeth.
It is said that a thousand armies are easy to come by, but a general is hard to find. If only Guan Yu, whose heart I could not completely win over, was trapped in the enemy's camp, then it would be fine. But the problem is that Zhao Yun Zhongyi was trapped in despair along with Guan Yu.
Zhao Yun was loyal, brave, calm and resourceful, and was deeply loved by Cao Cao. If he unfortunately died on the battlefield, Cao Cao would be deeply saddened.
Zhao Yun can be said to be the same as Gao Shun, a pillar among the generals with foreign surnames. Cao Cao really couldn't bear to lose his life.
But his own love alone was not enough to make Cao Cao determined and issue an order to send troops to rescue him. After all, as the commander of an army, Cao Cao must put the overall situation first. If he drives his troops to die with his own willfulness,
, then it is very likely to cause dissatisfaction from other generals. Now that we are in the midst of a war, we must not cause dissatisfaction internally at such a critical moment.
Therefore, if there is really no other way, we can only watch Zhao Yun's misfortune.
Fortunately, Zhao Yun has a kind personality. Although his martial arts skills are extremely high, he has no airs. He is easy to get close to others and is very popular on weekdays. Whether there are generals named Cao and Xiahou or generals with other surnames, most people in Cao's camp are like Zhao Yun.
They had a deep friendship. After learning that he was in danger, all the generals in Cao's camp expressed their willingness to send troops to rescue him.
The Xiahou brothers, Zhang Liao, and Huang Zhong all expressed their intention to go to the rescue. Gao Shun was not willing to lag behind and asked Cao Cao for orders to send troops.
Seeing that the generals were in a turbulent mood and all wanted to rescue Zhao Yun, Cao Cao felt a little relieved. As long as the public wanted it, it would be a matter of course to send troops to rescue Zhao Yun, and there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
As for which troops to send for rescue, although Cao Cao hesitated, he made a decision quickly.
Let Xia Houyuan lead the thousand cavalry to rescue!
Even when Cao Cao gave the order, he could feel his heart bleeding.
A thousand cavalrymen will probably die after they enter the battlefield.
But the problem is that this cavalry team is the best choice at the moment. The number of reinforcements sent to rescue Zhao Yun is destined to be impossible. In this way, if you just send ordinary infantry, in front of Yuan Shao's army,
I'm afraid the group would have been destroyed without any chance of getting close to Zhao Yun.
The cavalry is highly mobile and has a certain impact. They may be able to break into the enemy formation during the chaos and find an opportunity to rescue Zhao Yun.
Although if all the casualties of this cavalry are exhausted, it will be a great loss for himself. However, after today's defeat, Cao Jun will definitely have to use a defensive posture against Yuan Jun for a long time in the future. I am afraid that these thousand cavalry will not be able to defeat Yuan Jun on the Guandu battlefield.
It plays a big role. In this case, it is better to let them rescue Zhao Yun.
Although the cavalry is damaged, it can still be repaired. If Zhao Yun is killed, who can replace him?
As for Guan Yu, Cao Cao really didn't have any ideas. After all, the opponent was just a general who had no intention of returning. It would be great if he could be rescued, but if not, there was no need to force it.
"Wonderful talent, be careful in everything you do. It would be best to rescue Zilong, but if you are unable to do so, everything must be done to save your own life. If you see that you can't do anything, you should retreat immediately." Before Xia Houyuan set off, Cao Cao paid close attention to him.
He warned that Xia Houyuan and Cao Cao had a brotherhood. Although Zhao Yun was indeed loved by Cao Cao, but to save Zhao Yun, Xia Houyuan was involved. That was obviously a scene that Cao Cao did not want to see.
