Chapter 43: The Death of Cao Hong

The sound of killing shook the sky!

Cao Cao watched Lu Bu's army rush out from Puyang City, and he couldn't help but be shocked. Although Guo Jia had discussed with him how to lure Lu Bu's army out of Puyang City, but now they haven't done anything, and the opponent has already rushed in eagerly.

Are you going out of town to die?

"Fengxiao, is it because Lu Bu was injured that his brain went crazy?" Cao Cao laughed loudly at Guo Jia beside him, looking at Lu Bujun with a look full of teasing. If his four

If the 15,000-strong army cannot swallow up the 15,000 Lu Bu troops in a field battle, then he might as well be killed head-on.

"When things go wrong, there must be monsters. Don't be careless, my lord." Unlike Cao Cao's relaxed attitude, Guo Jia, who had always been playful, was unexpectedly serious at this time.

"Oh? Fengxiao, you are too worried." Cao Cao was surprised to see Guo Jia being so serious, but he didn't take his advice too seriously.

But soon, Cao Cao discovered that something was wrong. Lu Bu's army's offensive was very concentrated, with fifteen thousand men arrayed very densely. Moreover, Lu Bu's army seemed to only focus on destroying the enemy forces in the front, and completely ignored the pressure and attacks on the flanks.

.Although the soldiers on both sides of Lu Bu's army suffered considerable damage as a result, their entire army maintained an forward momentum, and its speed did not stop at all.

Soon, Cao Cao's front army began to be unable to withstand such pressure from the enemy and was forced to retreat.

"Lord!" Guo Jia seemed to suddenly think of something, and a drop of sweat flowed from his forehead.

"What's wrong? What did Feng Xiao see?" Seeing that the situation was different, Cao Cao's tone became much more solemn.

"I'm afraid Lu Bu doesn't want to confront our army. His target... I'm afraid is you, my lord." Guo Jia wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in a solemn voice.

"Me?" After Guo Jia mentioned this, Cao Cao quickly understood Lu Bu's intention.

"It seems that Lu Bu really values ​​me very much. He formed such a huge battle just to get my head!" Cao Cao smiled again, but this time his smile was somewhat self-deprecating. Although there was still something in his words

He was joking, but his expression became extremely serious.

"Send orders to Miao Cai and Zi Xiao to lead their troops to block the enemy's army head-on. They must not advance even half a step further!"

After Cao Cao learned of Lu Bu's true intentions, he no longer looked down upon him as he did before. To be fair, under the current situation, concentrating all his strength on a sudden attack on his own army is probably the only option that can win victory. But it must be done with both armies.

To make such a decision under the premise of such a huge difference in power, his courage and courage are absolutely unparalleled. If Cao Cao and Lu Bu were to reverse their current situations, Cao Cao would not be able to make such a decision.

Choice. However, Cao Cao is still very confident in his army. Even if the numbers are the same, Cao Cao believes that his army will be better than Lu Bu's army in terms of quality. What's more, his own army now has the upper hand in terms of numbers.

What if Lu Bu's army concentrated its forces and launched a sudden attack? There was absolutely no possibility of victory!

Lu Bu's army marched forward bravely, and the leader among them was none other than Lu Bu, the most powerful general in the world!

Flying general Lu Bu is the backbone of the entire army. Although this kind of army that madly worships a single person is likely to collapse quickly due to the defeat of that person, such as the night when Lu Bu was thrown from the top of Dongjun City. Cao Jun

Although it is inseparable from Cao Cao, even if Cao Cao is unfortunately killed in the army, his army can at least achieve the most basic advance and retreat under the command of other generals, and will not collapse all of a sudden. However, at this moment, at this moment

, Lu Bu, as the backbone, indeed had a great positive influence. As long as they looked at Lu Bu's majestic back in front, the soldiers would have unlimited pride and courage in their chests.

"Lu Bu, don't even think about taking another step forward!" The first person to appear in front of Lu Bu was Cao Cao's younger brother Cao Hong. He knew very well that he was no match for Lu Bu in terms of martial arts, so he never dared to entertain the idea of ​​competing with Lu Bu. At this time

Cao Hong's task was to lead the 3,000 men behind him to slow down the advance of Lu Bu's army, and wait for Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren to arrive with their own troops and confront Lu Bu's army.

"Looking for death!" Lu Bu yelled violently, clamped his legs together, praised the red rabbit horse and immediately accelerated, heading straight towards Cao Hong.

Cao Hong didn't expect that Lu Bu would come straight towards him. Looking at Lu Bu's murderous intent, he couldn't help but feel timid. At this moment, Cao Hong had already had the idea of ​​​​retreating, but he was afraid that his retreat would cause the three thousand people behind him to follow him.

Fleeing, thus indecisive.

The red rabbit horse that Lu Bu praised was such a splendid horse. Although Cao Hong's hesitation was only a very short moment, at that moment, Lu Bu had already galloped in front of Cao Hong.

Seeing Lu Bu, who was like a divine soldier descending from heaven, a look of horror appeared on Cao Hong's face.

Lu Bu Fangtian's halberd swept out quickly. Before Cao Hong could even react, he was hit hard in the waist by the handle of the halberd. Cao Hong's whole body flew up into the air and slid nearly two meters in the air before falling heavily to the ground.

At this time, Cao Hong was not dead, just seriously injured, but he soon suffered a tragedy. Lu Bu didn't even look at Cao Hong, who was knocked away by him, and just rode forward alone. The fifteen thousand people behind him were tightly packed.

Following, the cavalry were naturally at the forefront of the entire army. Poor Cao Hong was trampled to pulp by countless horse hooves before he could even stand up.

Most of the three thousand men behind him were crossbowmen, supplemented by a small number of infantry, to block the cavalry formation in front of Lu Bu's army. But now Cao Hong died in the enemy formation in just a moment, and the three thousand men suddenly lost their command.

, and immediately fell into chaos.

Lu Bu pointed his halberd forward, and the army surged forward, leaving behind all the corpses of Cao's soldiers along the way.

In the large tent of the Chinese army, Cao Cao's face was pale, his fists were clenched, and his nails were piercing his skin. He and Cao Hong were brothers, and they had been in love since their childhood. Now that they saw Cao Hong's miserable end with their own eyes, they couldn't help feeling deeply moved.

Sad.

At the same time, Cao Cao felt a little panicked because of the rapid advancement of Lu Bu's army.

"Miaocai and Zixiao haven't arrived yet..." As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to be afraid that the two would end up with the same fate as Cao Hong, so he hurriedly said to Dian Wei who was guarding him, "You should go to help quickly, and you must resist."

Lu Bu!"

When Dian Wei heard the words, he did not immediately agree, but wanted to speak up and uphold his words.

"Don't worry, as long as Zhong Kang is here, nothing big will happen to me. And Lu Bu is the most brave in the world. If he is left alone, something might happen, so he must be eliminated!" However, before Dian Wei could speak, Cao Cao interrupted him. Cao Cao knew that

What did Dian Wei want to say? Dian Wei now serves as his own bodyguard, and his most important duty is to protect his own safety, not to fight on the battlefield.

After listening to Cao Cao's words, Dian Wei nodded, made a promise, and then rode towards the enemy formation. He was a general under Cao Cao, and although he was responsible for guarding, he still had to give priority to Cao Cao's orders.

Besides, Cao Cao was right. With Xu Chu here, it would not be easy to threaten Cao Cao's life.

Xu Chu was a warrior who led his clan to defect when Cao Cao led his army back to Yanzhou. His martial arts skills were as high as those of Dian Wei. Cao Cao was very happy and made him Tiger Ben, sharing the responsibility of guarding with Dian Wei.

.

At this time, in the two army formations ahead, Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren's troops had also started a confrontation with Lu Bu's army.
