Although Liu Bei had adopted a desperate posture, his formation was not chaotic.
There is also a group of troops still watching the battle from the rear. Rather than watching the battle, it is better to describe it as surveillance. The costumes of those soldiers and horses are obviously different from those of Yuan Jun who entered the battlefield. They are all wearing white clothes, with shields on the left and swords on the right.

White soldiers!
Liu Bei's most elite white soldiers...
There were not many confrontations between Cao Cao and Liu Bei. The attack on Tao Qian was counted as one, and the subsequent battle in Runan was probably the first.
But this did not hinder Cao Cao's understanding of Liu Bei.
The bravery of Bai Qian was what Cao Cao was so envious of at the beginning. However, now that he has three elite soldiers, namely Wu Wei, Hu Ben and Hu Bao Cavalry, his envy, jealousy and hatred have been alleviated a lot. But even so, Cao Cao
*** is still wary of Bai Qian's fighting power.
That's right, Liu Bei's white body now is indeed inferior to the white body he had when he was in Xuzhou.
After many battles, the elite white men suffered a lot of losses. Although they were later replenished in Runan, their combat effectiveness was still not as good as before.
However, Cao Cao would not underestimate the enemy in the slightest. He still held down the three troops of Hubaoqi and Hubenwuwei, waiting for Liu Bei to make the final desperate move. The three schools were involved, but the troops were still somewhat insufficient. Liu Bei danced with his hands.
The two swords are galloping in the army, and their killing methods are extremely fierce.
At the same time, Guan Ping helped, forcing Lu Qian and Shi Huan to fight to the death to hold them back.
Brothers Xiahou Shang and Xiahou En were eager to try in this formation, but without Cao Cao's order, they did not dare to fight without authorization, for fear of affecting the situation of the battle.
"Ziyu, Boren, you two lead the military guards to attack."
"Here!"
Seeing the war reaching a stalemate, Mr. Cao couldn't help but frown slightly.
This was not the situation he expected to see. Xiahou En and Xiahou Shang were both newborn calves and were not afraid of tigers. After receiving the order, they immediately led the armed guards into the battlefield. Originally, Yuan Jun had a slight upper hand. But when 1,500 armed guards joined in
After that, changes occurred immediately. The Wuwei army was mainly composed of the Xu clan and had followed Cao Cao in the war for many years. Their bravery was no less than that of the Huben army.
At this time, Liu Bei's head seemed to be shaking, and his swords were flying, slashing left and right.
"Tanzhi, resist those two people with me!"
As he spoke, he suddenly exerted force and danced his swords even faster.
Lu Qian and Shi Huan were suddenly helpless against Liu Bei, and were even vaguely suppressed by Liu Bei.
Guan Ping roared and urged his horse to meet the Xiahou Shang brothers. Chen Dao, who was watching the battle in the back, was even more serious. He turned to Sun Qian and said: "Gongyou, I will leave two hundred people with you, and then lead his troops."
Join the battle. If the situation goes bad, you must save the lord and evacuate, I will break up the rear."
"good!"
Sun Qian also drew his sword and made a desperate posture.
Chen Dao raised his big gun high and shouted sternly: "Bai Qian, attack!"
Eight hundred white beasts shouted in unison and rushed into the battlefield.
Even though there are only 800 men, they are the elite of Liu Bei's army. They have followed Liu Bei to fight thousands of miles. They are all experienced and extremely brave in their killing skills.
After Bai Qi rushed into the battlefield, the form changed again.
Mr. Cao was watching the battle in his own formation, and when he saw Bai Qian attacking, a sinister smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Hu Ben, attack."
He drew his sword and urged his horse to rush out.
You know, Mr. Cao is also a good fighter.
In his early years, he was a cavalry captain. He took the lead and fought with the Yellow Turban Army. In terms of bravery, he was not necessarily inferior to Liu Bei.
After the Huben army rushed into the battlefield, they also had swords and shields in their hands, but they were more cooperative than other soldiers and horses. I think back then, Cao Peng asked Dian Wei to train the Huben army to line up, walk, and stand in a military posture. This was actually a kind of training for the Huben army.
Training. In terms of combat effectiveness alone, the Huben Army is especially superior to the Wuwei Army. The elites were selected from hundreds of thousands of Cao's troops, and after formal training, they cooperated very well.
In a group of three, the Huben Army will never fight head-on with Bai Qian.
Their greatest weapon is their skillful cooperation with each other. After rushing up, three or five people often surround one person. After killing the opponent in an instant, they then look for the next target. A tiger warrior breaks away with a shield and stabs Yuan Jun.
The two men then stepped forward to kill each other with their spears. One letter after another, and the cooperation was like flowing water, a Yuan Jun fell into a pool of blood. Wen Yudong, the captain of the Tiger Squadron, wiped the sword fiercely
After a Yuan Jun's neck, he shouted sharply: "Hu Ben, change the formation."
The big shield in his left hand was raised, and a big sword flew with a clang.
The body turned around at the same time, leaving a gap, and a tiger stepped forward, drew his gun and penetrated the opponent's chest.
Immediately, another tiger raised a shield to meet the enemy, and Wen Yudong turned around to take cover.
The three-person team kept turning, which was just a microcosm of the Tiger Army. The entire Tiger Army was marching like a huge meat grinder. As long as it was trapped in their circular formation, Yuan Jun could not resist at all, and it was instantly destroyed.
He fell into a pool of blood and turned into a dead body.
This terrifying fighting power even surprised Liu Bei.
Mr. Cao actually has such a warrior, but I have never seen him use it...
When facing a battle, the most fearful thing is distraction. What's more, Liu Bei is already inferior to Lu Qian and Shi Huan. With his bravery, he suppressed the two of them just now. After all, it will be difficult for Shi Huan and Lu to be distracted for a long time.
Qian immediately seized the opportunity, and the two fought against Liu Bei. Within a few rounds, Liu Bei was accidentally shot in the shoulder by Lu Qian, and blood spurted out.
Liu Bei screamed in pain and almost fell off his horse.
At this moment, Chen Dao and his men rushed over and stopped Lu Qian Shi Huan.
"Second General, Third General, don't be reluctant to fight, quickly cover the lord's evacuation..."
"Uncle, hurry up and leave. I'll be with you soon."
Guan Ping also rushed over and fought alongside Chen Dao.
Sun Qian led his men to protect Liu Bei and retreated backwards. Zhang Fei and Guan Yu did not dare to continue the fight. They each made a feint, turned their horses and left...
Cao Cao shouted sternly: "Don't leave Liu Bei!"
Dian Wei Xu Chu urged his horse to catch up, but dozens of white men swarmed up and stopped him.
Yuan Jun's position was completely in chaos!
Fortunately, Bai Qian fought to the death and was not defeated in the end...
Cao Cao said angrily: "Sing the thunder, the tiger and leopard cavalry will attack."
As he spoke, the sword in his palm cut down a man. Cao Bin took out a hammer from Hu Lu and shot it straight into the air.
At the same time, Xi Lu also ordered the overriding cavalry battalion to fire a blast. A series of piercing screams converged in the air, almost covering up the cries of killing on the battlefield. From behind Yuan Jun, a black torrent surged in,
The iron hoofs trampled the earth, causing it to tremble.
Liu Bei's face turned pale, and he roared: "It's a tiger and leopard knight. Don't be reluctant to fight, retreat quickly!"
Behind him, a scream suddenly came.
Liu Bei turned around and saw that Sun Qian was leapt from the side by a tiger warrior. He immediately threw his horse off and fell heavily to the ground.
He turned around to rescue him, but was stopped by Guan Yu.
Guan Yu no longer had the calm and bearded look he had earlier. He grabbed Liu Bei's arm and shouted loudly: "Brother, let's go quickly."
Liu Bei gritted his teeth and rode away...
This bloody battle lasted until nearly midnight.
Yuan's army had been defeated long ago, and only a few white men were left, still fighting to the death.
Mr. Cao returned to his command and looked at the bloody battlefield illuminated by the fire, and couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"Liu Xuande, you know your soldiers!"
"Master, what do you say?"
"I was still wondering why Liu Bei was moving so slowly.
Now that I think about it, firstly he was being cautious, and secondly he wanted to delay until dark... It was dark this night, so even if he was defeated, he could still use the darkness to escape. But I ignored this and actually missed the opportunity to eliminate Liu Bei. The best time, what a pity..."
"Lord, why should you worry? Even if Liu Bei ran away, his entire army would be almost wiped out.
Puyang may have fallen into Wen Ze's hands at this time, and he is all alone. Even if he returns to Yuan Shao, he will not be able to recover."
"Hongyu, you don't understand!"
Mr. Cao took a deep breath and handed the sword to Cao Bin.
"Liu Bei is a very resilient person.
If he does not die, I will find it difficult to let go... Pass my order and give me the command of Yanzhou! If anyone kills Liu Bei, he will be granted the title of 10,000 households and a reward of a thousand gold coins; if his whereabouts are found, he will be granted the title of 5,000 households and a reward of 100 gold coins! In short, , I must find Liu Bei and eliminate him completely."
Xi Lu was shocked, but he did not dare to hesitate and quickly obeyed the order.
"Lord, will Liu Bei return to Hebei after he has fallen into this state?"
Mr. Cao shook his head gently, "With Liu Bei's temperament, he will definitely not return to Hebei. He will lose his troops and generals, and if he loses Puyang again, he will be suddenly humiliated when he returns to Hebei. From what I know about him, he will find another way out... ...It’s just a short period of time, and it’s not easy to judge his whereabouts.”
Cao Bin, silent!
At the same time, the battles on the Zhaoying battlefield were all over.
Almost all the eight hundred white men were wiped out, and no one even surrendered.
Xia Houshang led a small school boy and pressed Sun Qian over, "My lord, the big-eared thief is still gone."
"It's not your fault, it's just that I didn't think carefully."
Mr. Cao was no stranger to Sun Qian. He only glanced at him and sighed softly, "Take Gongyou back first and keep him under guard."
Then, Cao Cao ordered Dian Wei and Xu Chu to gather their troops.
Xi Lu was left to clean the battlefield, and the entire army quickly returned to prepare to return to support Baima.
Presumably, White Horse has started fighting now...
No matter what, Cao Peng was always worried about the war on the Baima side. Even with Jia Xu by Cao Peng's side, he still felt worried.
The soldiers and horses quickly gathered together and took advantage of the darkness to rush towards the direction of Baima.
From Zhaoying to Baima, it is less than forty miles.
But before he was halfway out of the way, Mr. Cao suddenly heard Cao Bin shouting: "Lord, look, the sky over there seems to be on fire!"
After hearing this, Mr. Cao quickly looked in the direction of Cao Bin's finger.
I saw that the night that should have been dark in the distance now turned red, as if it was on fire.
He shivered with excitement, and hurriedly urged his horse to rush up to a hill, and set up a pergola to watch. The fire seemed to be coming from the direction of the white horse.
You must know that Mr. Cao's location at this time is nearly twenty miles away from Baima.
The flames of the white horse can be seen twenty miles away. What a terrible fire it must be...
Such a huge fire meant that the battle in White Horse must have been extremely tragic. Ah Fu must have been unable to withstand it, so he used such a method to burn the city with flames.
"Dian Wei, Xu Chu!"
"The end will be here."
"You two immediately lead your troops and rush to White Horse."
"Here!"
The mood of Xu Chu and Dian Wei at this moment is definitely not as relaxed as that of Mr. Cao. Because they have their precious son in Baima County.
After receiving the order, the two men urged their horses to rush down the hill and shouted sharply: "Hu Ben (Wu Wei), follow me and gallop to the aid of the white horse."
At the foot of the hill, Cao Zhen rushed up, rolled his saddle and fell off his horse in front of Cao Cao.
"My lord, I am willing to lead my troops to rescue my four brothers."
"Zidan, don't be anxious..."
Mr. Cao was halfway through speaking and didn't know what to say.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Zihe, you lead the tiger and leopard cavalry and go together immediately."
Cao Chun agreed, and led Cao Zhen to mount his horse and rush down the hill. The tiger and leopard rode in the night, rumbled out, and rushed towards the white horse.
Ah Fu, hold on!
Mr. Cao couldn't help shouting secretly in his heart. The joy of the previous victory was now gone.
——————————————————————————————
The sun has set, and Baima County is deserted, with not a single soul in sight.
The city gate is open, and you can see the streets of the city clearly. Except for the Jingguan with piles of corpses at the city gate, the entire Baima is like a ghost town. Standing outside the city gate, a small breeze blows
Come, like a gust of cold wind, making your scalp numb.
Yan Liang opened his mouth wide and looked at the city in front of him, feeling a little frightened.
"Empty city?"
He lowered his head and said to the scout kneeling in front of the horse: "You said Baima, is it an empty city now?"
"Exactly."
To be honest, even after walking around the city, the scout felt his scalp numb. The whole city was too deserted, too quiet, and the silence was eerie. Especially since the scout also knew that Yan Liang once massacred the city in Baima, he felt deep in his heart.
That makes me even more frightened.
Fortunately, after walking around, I didn't see anyone.
There wasn't even a sound, except for the sound of the hoofbeats of the war horse echoing under his crotch...
"General, the east gate of Baima was blocked with earth and rocks. It seems that Cao Jun originally wanted to fight the general here... Inside the west gate, a large amount of earth and rocks were found, as well as the baggage that had been stored here. It seemed that Cao Jun was preparing to block the west gate.
Seal them together."
Yan Liang was a little confused.
"Then why can't you even see Cao Jun's shadow now?"
You ask me, who am I asking? The scout couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he still had to keep a serious expression on his face, "Reporting to the general, from a humble point of view, it must be Cao Jun who learned that the general led his troops to attack.
I was so frightened that I ran away in a hurry."
"Yeah?"
"The general is the Four Court Pillars of Hebei Province, who in the world doesn't know that?
Previously, he easily captured Baima and defeated Xu Huang, achieving great military exploits. In Yanjin, the general also defeated Xia Houyuan. How could Cao Jun not know about it? Judging from his humble position, Cao Jun's guard originally wanted to defend to the death. But I heard that the general was coming.
, so I didn’t dare to fight and fled from the white horse in a hurry.”
Well, this explanation sounds reasonable.
Yan Liang turned around and asked, "What does Wei Huang think?"
This Weihuang is a military commander who is about thirty years old. His surname is Lu, his given name is Pei, and his courtesy name is Weihuang.
Hearing Yan Liang's question, Lu Weihuang laughed loudly, "General, why should you worry? Now the white horse is right in front of us, we just go in. If Cao Jun dares to use tricks, with the general's courage, won't he be captured? In my opinion, Cao Jun has no courage."
, this is an empty city.”
Yan Liang also laughed, "In that case, I'll wait until we enter the city!"
