(It’s just a little bit away from the previous one, Captain, I’d like to ask for your recommendation vote)
Gong Du did not hesitate at all, fearing that Yan Liang would take back his life or share this good job with others.
Riding his horse back to his own army, Gong Du ordered his four thousand Yellow Turban troops and galloped towards Cao's army in the north.
Yan Liang was sneering in his heart.
Yan Liang knew only how much Gong Du weighed and how powerful his four thousand Yellow Turban troops were.
Even the elite Hebei army led by Yan Liang was attacked by Cao Ren when the sergeants were deceived by the baggage and disorganized. He was not very sure about turning defeat into victory, let alone the ragtag army led by Gong Du.
Looking at the dust rising in front of him, Yan Liang glanced back at Xu You. At this moment, this strategist full of strategies was looking at Yan Liang with a surprised look.
Xu You's eyes were clearly surprised that Yan Liang had so easily understood his plan to kill two birds with one stone, and he carried it out without any hesitation, without any hesitation.
Yan Liang's resourcefulness and decisiveness once again deeply shocked Xu You.
In addition to being shocked, Xu You looked a little disappointed because Yan Liang didn't give him a chance to show off.
A horse came galloping up, it was Liu Pi
"General, Gong Du's military discipline is extremely poor. The general is afraid that he will rob the grain alone. He will definitely keep everything he gets."
Liu Pi didn't even have time to rein in his mount, so he spoke to Yan Liang worriedly and loudly.
Yan Liang smiled faintly: "Don't worry, if we win this battle, the baggage of the more than 100 cars will definitely be half yours."
Yan Liang's demeanor was calm and confident, and his calm demeanor made it seem as if everything was under his control.
Although Liu Pi was still suspicious, he was gradually infected by Yan Liang's general style, and he couldn't help but respect this famous general from Hebei.
"The troops and horses have stopped advancing and let's see how our General Gong performs his meritorious service."
Yan Liang raised his sword and said loudly.

Ten miles away, Cao Ren was stationed on a hillside, looking far in the direction of Ancheng.
"Bo Ning, during the battle of Baima, did you see Yan Liang use his troops with your own eyes?" Cao Ren asked seemingly casually.
During the Battle of Baima, Cao Ren was responsible for guarding Xudu and did not follow Cao Cao on the expedition.
As for Man Chong, he was in the army at the time. It was only after the Yellow Turbans in Runan rebelled and the previous governor was killed that he was transferred to the post of governor of Runan.
"General, I was with the Prime Minister at the time and did not witness the Battle of White Horse. However, I heard from Wen Yuan's own words how Yan Liang forced Yunchang to retreat."
"With Yun Chang's martial arts, he can't win. This person's martial arts is really amazing."
Cao Ren has always been calm and calm, and he can distinguish right from wrong. He is not afraid to personally praise the enemy generals in front of other generals.
Man Chong said: "In my opinion, our army's defeat in the battle of Baima was not entirely due to Yan Liang's power. There were also many accidental elements. Today's general's clever plan will definitely defeat Yan Liang's reputation and save the prime minister from the defeat of Baima.
losses.”
While he was talking, he saw billowing smoke rising into the sky, as if countless soldiers and horses were rushing towards the baggage train in front.
"General, look, the bandits have come to rob the food. It seems that Yan Liang has indeed fallen into the general's scheme." Man Chong said excitedly.
A smile appeared on Cao Ren's calm face.
The eight thousand elite infantry and cavalrymen of Cao Cao's army ceased their flags and drums and took shelter on the north side of the slope, hiding the location of their troops.
The four thousand Yellow Turban troops led by Gong Du in front swarmed in like hungry wild beasts, waving all kinds of weapons and rushing towards Cao Jun's baggage train.
Escorting the baggage train was two thousand weaker infantry troops. Cao Ren had secretly given instructions to the leading small school in advance. With only a slight resistance, more than two thousand people abandoned the grain truck and fled.
Gong Du saw that Cao's army had been driven back, and more than a hundred carts of food and grass were in front of him. He did not think about pursuing the enemy, but thousands of troops began to plunder the food and grass.
Gong Du scolded the soldiers and wanted them to push the grain and grass back to Ancheng and send it to their own camp. However, when the Yellow Turban Army saw the grain, their eyes turned green and they only focused on robbing it and did not obey the order at all.
Gong Du was a little panicked now. He waved his gun and yelled curses, trying to calm these crazy subordinates, but he was unable to stop the chaos from continuing.
On the long stretch of road, more than 4,000 people crowded together. They fought for each other, shouting and cursing one after another. They even fought with their own people over a few bags of grain and grass.
On the slope, Cao Ren looked down at the chaotic scene coldly, his sword eyebrows like blades, murderous intent flowing in his eyes.
With a sharp sound, Cao Ren drew his sword in his hand and shouted in a deep voice: "Every army listens to the order and attacks the bandit army. Anyone who gets Yan Liang's head will be heavily rewarded. Kill him!"
"Kill Yanliang!"
"Kill Yanliang!"
The thunderous roar spread like waves from near to far, spreading throughout the entire army in an instant.
Eight thousand elite Cao troops roared in unison, and the rumble of killing sounds shook the heaven and the earth.
General Pi Li Tong took the lead and rushed down the hillside. Eight thousand Cao Cao troops hiding behind the slope suddenly appeared and rushed down the slope one after another.
Twice the number of Cao's troops suddenly came out, and the four thousand Yellow Turban troops who were grabbing the fierce battle were immediately dumbfounded, and their first reaction was to run away.
It's too late.
The yellow scarf soldier who was the first to see Cao Jun turned around and ran away. Unfortunately, his companions behind him were still looting, and they suddenly collided with each other. There were more than 4,000 people, squeezing and crushing each other.
No way to escape, but it becomes more and more chaotic and crowded.
Gong Du, who was on horseback, saw Cao's army coming out and was frightened. He hurriedly waved his gun and ordered the whole army to fight.
From the looting to the collapse, it only took a moment. His subordinates were just running away. Who would listen to his command?
Only then did Gong Du, whose eyes turned red with rage, realize that he had fallen into Cao Jun's plan. His momentary greed actually led him and his four thousand men to the abyss of death.
Too much regret.
Cao Cao's army of more than a thousand cavalry roared in at the front. Li Tong used his horse and danced his spear, and unstoppably tore the Yellow Turban army into two pieces.
The infantry of Cao's army that followed came fiercely and slashed at the frightened Yellow Turbans with swords and spears in their hands.
The massacre begins here.
Gong Du was intercepted at the front of the team. Seeing that the situation was disadvantageous, he ignored his subordinates and fled southward with a few horsemen.
Li Tong, who was furious, saw a thief running away. He was not willing to let go, but Pegasus came towards him with guns drawn.
Gong Du had no choice but to muster up his courage and draw his gun to resist.
But when he saw a streak of blood splashing into the air, and two horses flying past each other, Gong Du didn't even have time to see the opponent's move clearly. His chest was pierced, and he turned over with a groan and fell off his horse.
After killing the enemy with one move, Li Tong cut off Gong Du's head, tied it to his horse, and continued to kill him wantonly.
After several back and forths, the four thousand Yellow Turban Army had been broken into several sections by Cao Jun's light cavalry, and were surrounded and killed by Cao Jun's infantry who followed.
Li Tong, who was covered in blood, met up with Cao Ren, raised the gun in his hand, and said excitedly: "General Zixiao, your strategy is indeed brilliant. The rebel army was not prepared at all, and we were killed."
At this time, Cao Ren was not as excited as Li Tong. He looked gloomy and had a bad premonition in his heart.
In his field of vision, there were all the rebel infantry, and not a single trace of cavalry could be seen at all. However, the information he got from Guo Jia was that Yan Liangnai was leading two thousand cavalry to Runan.
Even so, where are the two thousand cavalry?
Full of suspicion, Cao Ren looked around again, but no sign with the word "Yan" could be seen anywhere.
Suddenly, dust and smoke rose again on Nanfang Avenue.
As far as the eye could see, three thousand fighting heads wrapped in yellow turbans emerged from the wild fog, shouting and heading towards the chaotic battlefield.
"This Yan Liang really has some tricks up his sleeve..."
There was a trace of surprise on Cao Ren's face, but then he smiled coldly.
"You want to win with this little trick, but you have underestimated me, Cao Zixiao!"
As soon as his eagle eyes opened, Cao Ren leapt on his horse and crossed his sword, commanding more than a thousand cavalry on the left and right, bypassing the chaotic battle group, and headed south to meet the three thousand Yellow Turban Army who suddenly came.
Fierce fighting resumes.
Although the Yellow Turban Army led by Liu Pi was large in number and had the advantage of attacking, their low combat effectiveness caused him to lose his advantage.
The Cao army that faced the battle was worthy of being an elite regular army. Under the command of Cao Ren, although they rushed to the battle and had few soldiers and horses, they were not at a disadvantage at all.
After a fierce battle for a long time, Cao's army became more and more courageous as they fought. Liu Pi's troops gradually became exhausted and gradually showed signs of defeat.
While more than 10,000 people were fighting in the avenue, a light cavalry force of 1,000 people was quietly approaching from the north.
After passing through the woods, Yan Liang patted his horse and drew his knife, and jumped onto the small slope in front of him.
"Cao Zixiao, I've kept you waiting for a long time." Looking at the bloody scene of melee down the slope, the corners of Yan Liang's mouth rose slightly.
