Zhuge was reborn and killed the old thief Sima

Gao Lan once again launched a fierce attack on Fancheng, and this time Huo Jun was not caught off guard.

Just looking at Gao Lan who was attacking him like crazy, Huo Jun couldn't figure out what this meant, so he found Xu Shu to seek the answer.

But this time, he also responded with a shake of his head and a wry smile.

"This Gao Lan... this move is indeed beyond my expectations. It stands to reason that the old general Huang Zhong has already headed towards Wancheng.

Once he is allowed to invade Xi'e and even Bowang, it will cut off Xiahou Dun's return journey.

As a result, they all became fish in the net. Not only were their lives in danger, they would even be lost along with Ye County and other places in Nanyang County.

Once this happens...Cao Mengde will even lose the springboard to enter Jingzhou. They will not understand such a simple truth."

"But now Gao Lan has made it clear that he wants to fight to the death with us here. If Mr. Yuan Zhi commands Cao's army, what should he do?"

"It's not unreasonable for Gao Lan to attack us. If they retreat in large numbers at this time, they will inevitably be followed and chased by us. At that time, if they are not careful, they may lose everything.

If Gao Lan continues to attack us in Fancheng, he will not only be able to hold us back, but even if Wenpin of Xinye wants to send troops, he will not be able to get past Gao Lan's place.

As a result... Jingzhou's support is gone."

"Then there is something that Mr. Yuan Zhi can't figure out..."

"Although this method is good, it is like putting a high-level view on a fire. This is Fancheng, and it is very close to Xiangyang.

Once there was any problem in the rear, Xiahou Dun could just leave if he said so, but Gao Lan... it would be really difficult for him to escape.

He Gao Lan was originally a surrendered general.

Although Xiahou Dun's talent is mediocre, he can't see this kind of thing. Isn't he afraid that Gao Lan will surrender directly in a moment of anger?"

At this time, Xu Shu couldn't figure out how Xia Hou Yuanrang could make such a decision. This seemed to be his style, but something seemed wrong.

Here in Fancheng, Xu Shu frowned, and Zhao Yun on the other side was also in trouble.

"Are you the Zhao Yun who killed Marquis Xuanwei? It seems that you are nothing more than that."

A mighty general wearing pitch black armor, an iron-winged helmet, and a fur cloak was commanding his soldiers to attack continuously. It was none other than the famous Hebei general, Zhang He.

The cavalry, who were the nemesis of the infantry, did not have the slightest advantage in front of them. In fact, they had already lost more than a hundred people in a short battle.

The reason for this is not only the large number of soldiers and horses under his command, but also the fact that three thousand of them are all wearing double heavy armor and holding sharp halberds, which are heavy and ferocious.

Chaoyang County, Nanyang County, Zhao Yun was directly ambushed by a troop of soldiers and horses as soon as he entered Chaoyang County. If he hadn't noticed a flying bird rising into the sky, he would have been completely wiped out by now.

Looking at the big flag with the word "Zhang" in front of him, Zhao Yun finally knew where the disappeared Zhang He had gone.

"Hejian Zhanghe...Yuan Shao's generals...elite Euphorbia warriors...really deserve their reputation, withdraw!"

Zhao Yun looked at Zhang He who was not far away and did not rush to fight with him. Instead, he ordered the army to evacuate quickly and he personally stopped the rear.

Seeing Zhao Yun's troops gradually leaving the battlefield, Zhang He did not pursue them. Instead, he ordered his soldiers to start cleaning the battlefield and lit up smoke to notify other places.

The smoke that suddenly rose in the direction of Chaoyang County quickly spread to the enemy, ourselves... and all three parties.

Wenpin, who was turning his gun and headed towards Fancheng, immediately slowed down his marching speed when he saw the smoke, and then ordered the scouts in the army to disperse immediately to find out information to prevent the enemy from raiding.

Gao Lan, who was storming Fancheng, saw this scene behind him and also launched a fierce attack on Fancheng.

"I don't believe this evil yet. I am Gao Lan, a famous general in Jizhou, and my subordinates are the elites of Jizhou. My military strength is several times that of Fancheng.

If we can't even attack this place... wouldn't it be a joke!"

The angry Gao Lan seemed to really feel the humiliation, and as if he was really angry, he started to attack Fancheng again and again.

This time, Huo Jun also felt a little pressure, of course... just a little bit.

"This Fancheng is still not dangerous enough. It only has a strong city but no geographical advantage. The opponent is also a famous general... It's a pity that this battle is not the time for me to make a name for myself."

Huo Jun looked at the enemy troops constantly attacking below, and in the end he could only sigh. At the same time, he once again asked people to inform Xiangyang of the news here and send a message to Liu Bei. At the same time, there was also the sudden rise of wolf smoke in the north.

"At this time of the wolf smoke, did Gao Lan discover the general coming from behind, or... Zhang He appeared?"

"Whether it's Zhang He or Gao Lan, the rising smoke means that we may not be able to get reinforcements in a short time.

Wenpin asked Gao Lan to hold him back. Behind Fancheng is Xiangyang. This is to force Liu Biao to take back the troops he sent."

At the corner of the city wall, Yuan Wei and Xu Shu also let out a helpless sigh.

This simple smoke triggered not only the war in Fancheng, but also the entire Nanyang County, pushing the war to its final climax.

"The army will attack Wancheng immediately. This battle will be won!"

Zhao Yun, who was repulsed by Zhang He, did not continue to entangle with Zhang He, and gave up the idea of ​​attacking Gao Lan from both front and rear. He knew that the cavalry he had just formed would never be able to break through the Euphorbia's defense.

If he goes around, he may be the one who is attacked from both sides.

Therefore, he gave the order and directly gave up the battle in Fancheng and rushed to Wancheng instead.

"Speed ​​up, don't stop, and don't worry about anything else. You'll go straight to Bowang and other places in Western Hubei.

Kill!"

As the commander of the reinforcements, Huang Zhong immediately gave up the idea of ​​returning to the army after a brief exchange with Kuai Yue. Without receiving further orders from Liu Biao, they had only one purpose.

That is to capture Xi'e County and cut off Cao's army's return journey.

The vanguard general Zhuo Ying even abandoned all his luggage and headed straight for Western Hubei, carrying only two days of dry food.

But just over ten miles away from Xi'e, they were also blocked.

"The great Han Yishou Pavilion is here. If you retreat, I can save your lives!"

Thousands of soldiers and horses blocked Zhuo Ying's path forward, and a general stepped out from the crowd and issued an ultimatum to Zhuo Ying.

"Get out!" Zhuo Ying's recovery was simple and rude, "Soldiers, follow me to kill the enemy!"

With an order, the army rushed over and half an hour later...

"Retreat... withdraw quickly... tell General Huang that Cao Jun has been prepared..." Zhuo Ying, who was seriously injured, only left these words and then passed out directly.

The personal guards protected him and left the battlefield directly. The army was defeated immediately, while the general of Cao Army had a sneer on his face.

"A small Jingzhou actually wants to intercept and kill us?

Do you have any misunderstanding about the current strength of Duke Cao!"

Just after the general sneered, another big flag slowly rose.

"The great Han Yishou Tinghou, the partial general, Yu!"
