Thanks again to lwj09 for the big reward. Today I heard that I can write two chapters on Taoism...

Late at night, dark clouds cover the moon. The empty and open plain outside Lujiang City is lifeless. If it were not for the war period, countless additional torches were added to the city to illuminate it. I am afraid that in this endless darkness, Liao Hua and his
The figures of the hundreds of Yellow Turban soldiers he led could not be seen clearly.
After confirming that there were only about a hundred people like Liao Hua nearby, Cao Xing finally opened the gate of Lujiang City with some drunkenness, ordered five thousand elite soldiers to fight out.
After all, the two Lujiang defenders Cao Xing and Hou Cheng came out of the city to fight this time. Even the rugged Cao Xing had to be extra careful for fear of falling into the Yellow Turban Army's scheme.
Amidst the sound of war drums, five thousand Xuzhou troops rushed out of the city gate like a tide and formed a formation opposite more than a hundred Yellow Turban troops. The battlefield outside Lujiang City was suddenly illuminated clearly by thousands of blazing torches.
On the side of the Yellow Turban Army, Liao Hua held a gun in one hand and looked extremely pale. Although he sat quietly on his horse, his eyes that were almost spitting out fire were staring fiercely at the five thousand Xuzhou who were roaring out from the opposite side.
military.
"Haha, who am I? It turns out to be you, the defeated general! What? Qin Yang didn't kill you, but you came here to die yourself?" Cao Xing looked at Liao Hua, who was glaring angrily, and couldn't help laughing.
The spear in his hand showed an extremely contemptuous expression.
Although the Xuzhou Army in Lujiang City did not send out multiple scouts to investigate the enemy's situation with as much fanfare as the Yellow Turban Army, it was not a secret that the Yellow Turban King Ming reprimanded Liao Hua and cut off his military rank. Therefore, Cao Xing only saw Liao Hua.
He brought hundreds of people here, and he didn't feel any surprise at all. If he were to be defeated and punished, he might not be able to control himself and sneak out to seek revenge, right? After all, the Yellow Turban Army is said to be invincible.
.Liao Hua was the first general to be defeated.
"Hmph! Cao Xing, you are a common man who only knows how to use treacherous tactics! Today your grandfather Liao Hua tried his best to disobey the military order and resist the punishment of the military staff with his fighting spirit. It is just to avenge you and avenge the shame! If you are a hero, then fight with me.
!Don’t think that you can claim to be a famous general in the world just by shooting Xiahou Dun! In my eyes, Liao Hua, you are nothing but a waste!"
After hearing Cao Xing's contemptuous words, Liao Hua became even more angry. He raised his spear and pointed it at Cao Xing and cursed. As he said, when enforcing military laws during the day, he secretly used his fighting spirit to resist the military staff. This was already a member of the Yellow Turban Army.
Even if he is willing to risk the death penalty, he still wants to fight with Cao Xinghoucheng to avenge the humiliation he suffered during the daytime trap!
Cao Xing was not angry when he heard this, but laughed loudly and said: "Is this all you, Liao Hua, have? It seems that your popularity among the Yellow Turban Army is not very good. Can you only bring this little scrap to die?"
?We have an army of one hundred thousand in Lujiang City. Even if one of us spits out a mouthful of foam, we will drown a hundred or ten of you! It’s just that you got lucky today and caught up with your grandpa. I’m so happy that I came out to meet you. Can you die?
You’re lucky if you’re shot by someone!”
"Idiot, die!" Liao Hua seemed to be in no mood to talk to Cao Xing anymore. After roaring, he rushed towards Cao Xing who was laughing wildly.
"Kill! Long live the Yellow Turbans!" Seeing Liao Hua rushing out, the more than a hundred Yellow Turban Army soldiers brought out by Liao Hua also roared and shouted slogans. On the vast plain, these more than a hundred people were like moths flying into the flames.
The five thousand elite soldiers rushed frantically towards the outside of the city.
"Haha, are you in such a hurry to die? I will help you! Brothers, crush them for me!" Cao Xing shouted. He was already a little unhappy and could not take care of Hou Cheng beside him at this moment. He had the spear in his hand.
He waved his horse and danced to meet the charging Liao Hua.
"Kill!" After the five thousand Xuzhou Army received the order, they immediately shouted. In the middle of the night, thousands of torches were like a stream of flames, instantly drowning the more than a hundred Yellow Turban troops rushing towards them.
From their point of view, this was simply a one-sided massacre. On this flat plain, five thousand against one hundred. As Cao Xing said, even if you step on them with your feet, you can crush the Yellow Turban Army into meat patties!
Cao Xing rushed forward, and five thousand elite soldiers rushed forward. Among the entire Xuzhou army formation, only Hou Cheng stood still and did not move. Because he was the commander-in-chief, the other soldiers did not dare to say anything, seeing the two men in front of them.
The soldiers were about to collide on the battlefield, but Hou Cheng's face was expressionless, and he seemed to be thinking about something between his brows.
"General, we..." Seeing that their general did not move, Hou Cheng's personal soldiers did not dare to act rashly. They only asked softly as a responsible guard beside Hou Cheng.
"Don't worry, don't move. We'll wait and see how the situation develops." Amid the loud killing sounds, Hou Cheng had already lost half of his drunkenness. He raised his eyes and looked at the dozen or so relatives around him who were quite puzzled.
After fighting, he didn't say much, and moved his eyes to the battlefield where the killing was about to begin.
"Kill!" The two armies finally collided on the battlefield outside Lujiang City. Just as Cao Xing expected, five thousand elite Xuzhou soldiers drowned more than a hundred Yellow Turbans in the torrent in an instant. The soldiers of the Xuzhou Army
They excitedly raised their swords and guns. This fifty-to-one killing was simply extremely easy for them.
"Boom!" A loud noise suddenly sounded among the crowd of Xuzhou Army. An extremely powerful force of fighting spirit was like exploding a bomb in the turbulent river water, immediately arousing layers of blood.
wave!
"Woohoo——!" In the flickering firelight, a black-haired giant ape transformed from fighting spirit raised its head and roared. With every move, several soldiers of the Xuzhou Army suddenly flew into pieces!
"Under the command of the Yellow Turban King Ming, General Guan Hai is here! Who is coming to die!" A burly man wearing an ordinary infantry uniform of the Yellow Turban Army suddenly raised his head. Under the light of the fire, it was clear that he had just reached the stage of Dou Qi transformation into a beast.
Guan Hai of realm!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!..."
Just after Guan Hai suddenly appeared among the Yellow Turban Army, the entire battlefield suddenly roared like exploding beans! Not far from Guan Hai, a cheetah transformed from fighting spirit roared fiercely, extremely fast!
In a few flashes, the black spear was brandished, and the Xuzhou military formation suddenly screamed in agony.
"In the tent of King Ming of the Yellow Turbans. General Zhang Yan of the Black Mountain Army is here!" Under the cheetah, one man and one rider. Zhang Yan, who was also wearing the ordinary cavalry uniform of the Yellow Turban Army, immediately raised his gun like a murderer!
On the other side, the eagles screamed and the wolves roared, and the two rays of gold and silver were as fast as lightning. Generals Ma Chao and Huang Zhong, wearing the uniforms of the Yellow Turban Army soldiers, were like tigers entering the flock of sheep, amidst the exclamations of countless Xuzhou troops
Swinging vertically and horizontally, causing waves of blood!
In addition, countless brilliant rays of fighting spirit lit up almost at the same time. Almost all of these hundreds of Yellow Turban Army soldiers were dressed as generals of the Yellow Turban Army. Although the five thousand Xuzhou Army were all elite soldiers
A fierce general, but in front of these powerful fighters who can fight one against a hundred or even one against a thousand, there is no doubt that the tiger has turned into a lamb waiting to be slaughtered in an instant!
"Kill!" The sound of killing was loud, and the battlefield situation took a turn for the worse. Hundreds of powerful fighters rushed back and forth in the Xuzhou Army's camp as if they were in a deserted place. In an instant, they attacked the Xuzhou Army's formation to pieces.
Defeated!
"How...how could this happen?!" Cao Xing, who had just fought with Liao Hua for a moment, suddenly saw the situation change drastically. His heart sank, and a chill suddenly emerged from his heart.
"Hahahaha... Cao Xing is a common man. I have already said that in my eyes, Liao Hua, you are just a waste! Do you really think that Mr. Liao will really be defeated by a waste like you!" Seeing Jun
During the battle, Liao Hua couldn't help but laugh loudly, his pride was beyond words.
In fact, Liao Hua's defeat during the day was not a false defeat as he said. In the day's battle, the fifth battalion of the Yellow Turban Army indeed lost troops and generals. It was a huge defeat. If this were not the case, let alone the wise and scheming Hou Cheng,
Even Cao Xing, a battle-hardened general, would have seen some clues.
However, after the sudden defeat, Qin Yang and Guo Jia reacted very quickly and immediately made a plan to defeat the enemy. When enforcing military law, Qin Yang also secretly sent someone to tell Liao Hua to use fighting spirit to resist the military staff.
However, even Qin Yang and others did not expect that not only the fiery Cao Xing would come out of the city to fight this time, but also Hou Chengdu would follow him out!
"Kill! Long live the Yellow Turbans! Take Lujiang City in one fell swoop!" Although the Yellow Turbans only have a hundred people, their fighting strength is equivalent to tens of thousands of elite soldiers! After a roar, dozens of generals
The figure suddenly rushed towards the Lujiang City Gate, which had not had time to close, like the wind!
At the same time, a thunderous war drum suddenly sounded in the darkness in the distance. Firelight flickered on the horizon, and in an instant, the Yellow Turban army, which had already secretly crossed the river and was ambushing in the distance, roared!
The sound of iron hoofs rumbled, and the ground outside Lujiang City began to tremble slightly. The cavalry soldiers holding high the flag of the Yellow Turban Army held torches and danced a giant flaming dragon on the dark plain!
"Damn it! We've fallen into a trap, retreat! General Hou, hurry up and command the defenders in the city to close the door and defend!" Upon seeing this, Cao Xing regretted it for a long time. At this moment, he had no intention of quarreling with Liao Hua, and he had no intention of fighting, so he immediately turned his horse around.
Command the army to retreat towards Lujiang City.
"Okay, don't worry, General Cao. I will return to the city soon! General, please take care!" After Hou Cheng responded, he also turned his horse's head and led the guards around him to run straight to Lujiang City.
However, when he was running towards the Lujiang City Gate, Hou Cheng gave a very strange order to the guards around him: "Don't run fast, retreat slowly towards the city gate!"
When Liao Hua saw Hou Cheng leading his men to retreat towards Lujiang City, while Cao Xing was commanding the army to frantically block his side's advance, Liao Hua couldn't help but said anxiously: "Commander Guo, take action quickly! Don't let Hou Cheng escape!"
Before he finished speaking, Guo Jia, who had long been hidden among the Yellow Turban soldiers, had already taken action. He lured the two generals guarding the city at once. How could Guo Jia miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
"Corpse soldiers break the ground!" As Guo Jia whispered, brilliant spells suddenly bloomed like fireworks at the edge of the battlefield. Since Guo Jia had already quietly sneaked into the edge of the battlefield near Lujiang City, so
At this time, he was very close to Hou Cheng and others.
"Crack, click...!" A series of creepy sounds suddenly came from the ground under your feet, which was the sound of human bones rubbing against the hard ground.
After a while, corpse soldiers who were cold and lifeless, exuding the aura of death, and holding broken weapons in their hands crawled out of the ground one after another. As they breathed out the putrid corpse aura, they immediately cut down many soldiers of the Xuzhou Army nearby.
.
At this moment, Hou Cheng has led his troops outside the gate of Lujiang City, which is about to be closed, and countless corpse soldiers behind him are also close at hand! On top of the city, the Xuzhou defenders were panicking and struggling to close the city gate, not knowing what to do.
He looked at General Hou Cheng at the foot of the city with concern.
Hou Cheng glanced behind him, then took a deep breath and shouted loudly at the top of the city: "I am Hou Cheng, open the city gate..."
