"What are you worried about, lord?"

Tao Ying should be excited about escaping the siege of 90,000 troops without a single blow or an arrow. Tao Ying should be excited. But what confuses Huang Zhong is that Tao Ying is not only not happy, but even more anxious.

"Report..."

While Huang Zhong was confused, a panting scout hurried over, staggered and knelt down in front of Tao Ying.

"Lord, a large army has appeared three miles away and is heading towards Yan County quickly. It has about 20,000 troops and is flying a flag with the word 'Cao'. It is suspected that it is Cao Cao's unit of the Jujube Alliance Army!"

As soon as the scout finished speaking, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, and Hao Shuai all took a sharp breath of air, and even the soldiers of the Xuanjia Army who were celebrating their escape all changed their colors.

"Hiss..."

"What a risk..."

"If you are one step too late, you will never have a chance to escape..."

Huang Zhong, who realized later, looked at Tao Ying in shock. He finally understood why Tao Ying looked worried just now.

"My lord has predicted that Cao Cao will arrive!"

"One hundred and ten thousand troops will turn Yan County into ashes in a short time!"

Tao Ying pulled up the scout and looked up at the wilderness three miles away, his melancholy eyes changing.

"Cao Ah'an, you're here after all, and you didn't miss the opportunity to ask me, Tao Yingming!"

"Are you so anxious for your son to lose his godfather?"

"Are you just desperate to have your two ex-wives lose their current husbands?"

"Cao Amo, I heard that you married a little wife again..."

Cao Cao's army arrived faster than Tao Ying expected. Time no longer allowed Tao Ying to complain and gnash his teeth too much. He had to get rid of Cao Cao, who wanted to fish in troubled waters, before he could have a chance to receive reinforcements.

"If you want to eat me, Tao Ying, I'll break a few of your teeth first!"

Tao Ying's eyes turned cold and he turned to look at Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Hao Shuai and other generals.

"Dian Wei listens to the order!"

Dian Wei's body trembled, he took a big step forward, and bowed with his fists proudly clasped.

"The end is here!"

"Immediately lead all the infantry to bypass Cao Cao's army and deceive Taocheng, which is twenty miles away!"

Yesterday, after a series of hard battles, the eight thousand infantrymen were reduced to less than two thousand, and more than six thousand people were killed. It can be said that the losses were heavy.

Dian Wei, who looked solemn, responded loudly.

"I will obey my orders!"

Dian Wei responded with a hum, without any delay, roared at the infantry, turned around and walked away quickly.

"Huang Zhong listens to orders!"

As soon as Dian Wei retreated, Tao Ying cast his sharp eyes like an eagle on Huang Zhong.

"The end will be here"

Huang Zhong took a step forward, bowed his hands, and responded in a deep voice.

"Order the cavalry to raise the banner of Yuan Jun and follow me one mile to intercept Cao Cao!"

Huang Zhong cupped his hands, straightened his tiger body proudly, stepped on the stirrups and mounted his horse.

Although the number of two thousand cavalry is less than five hundred, the cavalry that has survived hundreds of battles is still astonishing in combat power. Huang Zhong is confident that he can defeat Cao Cao's 20,000 new army if he is caught by surprise.

"Drive..."

"Xi Lv Lv..."

The sound of the horse's hooves is like thunder.

As dawn faded in the countryside of Yan County, the sound of rapid horse hooves resounded again, and the gravel and smoke thrown up by the galloping horses once again confused the sky.

……

"Xu..."

The cavalry is very fast and can cover a mile in the blink of an eye.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

When the cavalry was stationed, Huang Zhong received Tao Ying's instructions. He took two steps forward on his horse, waved the sword in his hand, and shouted at Cao Jun who was forced to stop.

"We are the jujube coalition, here to help leader Yuan annihilate the rebel Tao Ying!"

The dissatisfied pioneer Xiahou Dun stepped forward to talk to Huang Zhong with a cold face.

"No matter what coalition you are, General Yuan has an order. Our army is burying corpses in front of us. No one is allowed to disturb us!"

Looking at the bossy Huang Zhong, the impatient Xiahou Dun suddenly became angry, waved the spear in his hand, and threatened loudly.

"Why should I be disturbed by burying a body?"

"If you are sensible, get out of the way, otherwise you will be shot and killed!"

Huang Zhong sneered, with a hint of undisguised disdain on his face.

"The unknown person comes here, I will protect you from death for the first three blows!"

Xiahou Dun's face instantly darkened. He waved the spear in his hand and was about to mount his horse and kill Huang Zhong. However, he was stopped by Cao Cao who came up from behind to see what was going on.

"Yuan Rang, please be patient!"

Cao Cao drove his horse forward and glanced at the arrogant Huang Zhong with his narrow eyes, then looked at the cavalry with various Yuan Jun banners, a hint of doubt appeared in his cold eyes.

"Who are you? General Fenwu is here, why don't you come forward and pay homage!"

Cao Hong couldn't help but shout out Cao Cao's name, hoping to make Huang Zhong retreat.

"Han Sheng, anger them!"

The moment Cao Cao appeared, Tao Ying, who was hiding among the cavalry, saw him, and Cao Cao was obviously suspicious of the cavalry.

"General Shit?"

When Huang Zhong heard Tao Ying's explanation, he was stunned for a moment, and then followed the plan.

"Could it be the eunuch?"

"Leader Yuan has an order. No matter who he is, if he dares to take a step forward today, he will be killed without mercy!"

I don't know whether it was because Huang Zhong had already despised Cao Cao in his heart, or because he was born with quick reactions, and the humiliating words that came out of his mouth were very lethal, and he hit the target with one blow.

"The nameless boy is so angry with me..."

"Wow... you thief, I, Xiahou Dun, swear to kill you today..."

"The thief takes his life..."

Before Xiahou Dun finished his roar, Cao Hong behind him had already taken the lead in attacking Huang Zhong with his sword.

"When Han Sheng comes back, everyone shoots arrows!"

The moment Cao Hong came out, Tao Ying immediately ordered the cavalry who had been preparing secretly to fire arrows.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

"Uh-huh..."

The rain of arrows in the sky caught the unprepared Cao Jun off guard, and they all fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, letting out pitiful screams.

"Retreat toward Quyi Camp!"

After a round of arrows was fired, Tao Ying turned his horse's head without hesitation and retreated towards Quyi's tribe.

"General Zhang, please report to General Qu quickly, Tao Ying's reinforcements are coming..."

Tao Ying, who was at the front, had not yet arrived at Quyi's camp when he encountered Zhang Nan, the deputy general of Quyi who had become suspicious and came out to see what was going on.

"Han Sheng, shoot Zhang Nan to death!"

Huang Zhong, who was following Tao Ying, heard this and immediately slowed down his horse and quietly drew his bow.

"Whoops!"

"Poof!"

Zhang Nan, who looked confused, had not yet come to his senses when a sharp arrow pierced his forehead and fell off his horse without saying a word.

"Xi Lv Lv..."

"Run quickly, General Zhang was killed by Tao Ying's reinforcements..."

As Tao Ying and Xuan Jiajun shouted, Yuan Jun who came out with Zhang Nan also followed suit and turned around and ran towards the camp.

……

"Hao Shuai, lead two hundred cavalry to break away from the battle and pursue Dian Wei."

"Han Sheng led his cavalry to shoot at Cao's army and waited for Qu Yi to come. Once Cao and Qu got into a melee, they immediately left the battle circle and chased the infantry."
