Richard's eyes widened: "No way? Cao Cao is so strong and has so many powerful generals under his command, how could he lose to Yuan Xi?"
"This is the information from Maturin, do you believe it or not?" Abbott said angrily, "The situation is critical now. Yuan Xi personally led the army to pursue Cao Cao. Even Xu Chu died in the battle! I see, this
It is very likely that Cao Cao will be defeated in the first battle, so we must make plans early."
Richard thought for a while: "Cao Cao's death is not necessarily a bad thing. With my prestige and position in the Cao Group, I can definitely inherit Cao Cao's legacy just like Yuan Xi inherited Yuan Shao!"
Alberta shook her head, not agreeing with Richard's point of view:
"Whether Cao Cao's defeat is good or bad for us depends on the situation!
"If the overall situation does not collapse, that is a good thing. For example, Yuan Xi attacked Xudu and captured the emperor, so that Cao Cao could not take advantage of Guandu's victory to pursue him. The situation did not collapse with Yuan Shao's death, and he also gained precious time to unify Hebei.
!
"But now, Cao Cao's defeat is likely to lead to the total collapse of the Cao Group! We are now deep into the hinterland of Jizhou and are in a dilemma. How can we have a chance to return to Xudu and inherit the throne?"
Richard stood up suddenly: "Opportunities are not waiting for you, you create them yourself! I will give the order to return to Xudu!"
However, after Richard issued the order as Cao Xiong, two of Cao Cao's generals did not agree.
Richard was anxious: "I am the commander-in-chief of this army! I ordered the withdrawal. Do you dare to disagree?"
The two generals shook their heads: "My lord has strictly ordered us to attack Wei County. Even if we don't attack, we cannot withdraw our troops. Otherwise, everyone from the two of us down will be beheaded. The orders of the fourth son are not as important as the lord's orders."
Bar."
Alberta shook his head and said in the team channel: "Don't waste your efforts, Cao Cao obviously guarded you!"
The Awakened Ones of Shenting are unable to tell the story of Cao Cao's defeat. After all, they cannot explain the intelligence channels of Raven Messenger! This is the unique intelligence method of Shenting Training Camp, which is convenient and fast.
If Richard revealed the Raven Messenger now, it would make Cao Xiong's generals and leaders wonder why he didn't take it out earlier if he had this unique channel? What was his intention? This would also be detrimental to Cao Xiong's identity.
"Do you want to take action? Kill these two ignorant people." Richard said.
Alberta said helplessly: "You can kill them if you want, but your reputation will inevitably collapse. How can you go back to Xu Du to inherit Cao Cao's legacy?"
Richard felt unable to move, like a caged animal, wandering around in the military tent.
Alberta said: "Now we can only give up these two thousand soldiers and horses, and return secretly with the three hundred soldiers we recruited ourselves! The smaller number also has advantages. We can cross the Yellow River secretly and will not be easily defeated by Yuan Xi's army.
Stop. As long as the reputation does not collapse, there is still great hope after returning to Xudu."
Richard nodded in agreement, and immediately ordered the entire army to be on alert. Under the pretext of reconnoitring the terrain, he left directly with his three hundred followers.
However, as soon as Richard was less than five kilometers away from Cao's army, smoke and dust billowed behind him, and shouts of death rang out.
It turned out that Qiao Rui used Falcon Spirit + mental scanning to quickly determine that Anyang had won after discovering Richard's departure! She decisively took out the secret order left by Bai Xiaowen in advance, leaving only Tian Yu to guard the city, and took Murong Ping with her.
And led 10,000 soldiers and horses in the city to fight out.
The Awakeners of Shenting have withdrawn. The one or two thousand soldiers of Cao's army stationed in Tushan will collapse at the first touch if they can resist.
Murong Ping is not only good at archery, but also has the ability to track. If there were only a few people, he might not be able to catch up, but Richard and his 300 followers left too obvious traces, so of course they couldn't escape.
Qiao Rui led an army of 10,000 people and used Meng De's new book - The Speedy Strategy of Soldiers given to her by Bai Xiaowen to pursue them. Even though the Awakeners of the Divine Court also used similar props to rush on their way, they could not escape the pursuit.
This is the territory of Jizhou, and there are enemies everywhere.
Richard did not dare to escape anywhere else, so he could only follow the way he came and fled to Fanyang.
When they arrived at Fanyang, the army in front blocked the road. The general at the head, with his gun drawn and his horse reined in, looked majestic and majestic as a lord. Behind him was a large flag with the four characters "Hejian Zhang He" written on it. Looking to the left and right, they were Li Shuyi and Han Xu.
, and there are ten thousand troops behind him.
There was a roadblock in front of them, and there were pursuers behind them. Richard and Alberta looked at each other, and at the same time they felt a bad feeling in their hearts.
Richard simply broke the pot and said: "Hey, you win! Let that Yuan Xi speak out!"
Zhang He shouted: "You are not worthy of talking to my lord."
Richard sneered: "Ignorant aborigines, do you really think that Yuan Xi is Yuan Shao's biological son? He has been replaced a long time ago! That Yuan Xi is not from this world like me!"
Zhang He frowned and said, "What world?"
Li Shuyi said from the side: "General Zhang, this is Cao Cao's thief who is at the end of his rope and is mad and deliberately making lies to confuse the public."
Han Xu nodded: "That's right."
Zhang He suddenly realized and said: "I thought Cao Cao's fourth son had a good reputation as a martial artist, but I didn't expect that at the end of the road, he would make such weird remarks to please the public. That's all. If you don't talk nonsense with you, I'll shoot you!"
After saying this, Zhang He leaped on his horse, drew his spear, and took Richard directly.
Richard jumped up from his horse, wielded a spear, and engaged Zhang He. There were many infantry generals in the Three Kingdoms era, so Zhang He was not surprised.
Zhang He's hard power is naturally stronger than Richard's. After several rounds, Richard encountered dangerous situations one after another.
"middle!"
Richard suddenly shouted loudly, the spear in his palm exploded with thunder, and he awakened the Thunder Spear, and stabbed Zhang He rapidly, more than twice as fast as the slow speed before.
A white light flashed, and the next second Han Xu appeared in front of Zhang He's horse, his big shield raised to block the spear!
Han Xu activated his Gang Qi special skill and remained motionless. Richard, on the other hand, was shocked and took a step back, with a look of surprise on his face.
In fact, even if Zhang He eats this spear, he will not be killed. After all, he is a lord-level military commander. Moreover, Zhang He's Miyun Spear Skill is good at defense. Even if Han Xu does not mobilize reinforcements, Zhang He is more than 70% sure.
Can block this sudden spear.
However, Zhang He was very grateful to Han Xu for taking the initiative to come to his aid. He was not a person like Guan Yu who valued face more than life. He was happy and relaxed when there were friendly troops around him who could gang up on his opponents.
Taking advantage of Richard's confrontation with Han Xu and being knocked back a step, Zhang He shouted loudly, shot out his gun like a dragon, and stabbed Richard in the throat.
As an awakener, Richard is very fragile. Don't say it's a critical hit with this shot. Even if it doesn't hit a critical hit, it's enough to kill him instantly.
Alberta quickly threw out a light judgment skill, which made Zhang He's movements stiff for a few tenths of a second. Richard got an opening and escaped.
However, Richard's three hundred men followed behind, and there was a huge smoke and dust, accompanied by the faint sound of bamboo flutes. Qiao Rui and Murong Ping had already led an army of 10,000 to catch up, and the two armies completed the encirclement!
