    Cao Cao also did not order to go out of the city to cover up the killing, and allowed the Jiangdong armies to withdraw to their strongholds.  The two armies fought fiercely for a whole day. The sky gradually darkened, and a red-yellow light shone on Xiapi City. Only corpses and bloodstains were seen on and under Xiapi City.  A breeze blew by, seeming to be tainted with the strong smell of blood.

    The cruelty of war seems to make people gradually numb. After seeing too much blood, flesh, swords and guns, it is not so scary.  The soldiers and civilians of Xiapi City took a quick rest and prepared for tomorrow's war.

    Cao Cao stood on the battle tower, looking around at the scene, and the misery unfolded in his mind, lingering in his mind.  The soldiers guarding Cao Cao stood silently.  After a long time, Cao Cao left.

    It is said that Zhou Yu withdrew his troops and returned to the stronghold, and was discussing countermeasures with the civil and military officials in Jiangdong.  Suddenly, a scout rushed into the tent and reported that Cao Ren, the general of Cao's army, had suddenly attacked Qiao County. Jiang Yin was captured, Yuzhou was lost, and all his troops in Yuzhou were destroyed.  At this time, Cao Ren, together with Zhang Jia, Cao Zhang and other generals, were taking the road from Yuzhou and would soon reach the border of Xiapi.

    Zhou Yu's face changed drastically after hearing this. Fortunately, he had prepared in advance. Anticipating that something might happen in Yuzhou, he first sent a team of scouts to Yuzhou to explore.  If not, wait for Cao Ren's troops to arrive and attack his army from behind.  Cao Cao, who was stationed in Xiapi City, would also take the opportunity to launch an attack. His army would be attacked from both sides and would suffer heavy losses.

    The current situation was extremely urgent for Zhou Yu, and all the generals wanted to withdraw their troops.  Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes and secretly noticed the expressions of the generals, feeling hesitant in his heart.  Lu Xun attended and remonstrated.

    "My lord's body is not yet cold, but it is still in the hands of old thief Cao. If our army withdraws like this, we will be ridiculed by everyone in the world. Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I have a plan to teach old thief Cao, so that he will die without a burial place!!!"

    When Zhou Yu heard this, his face suddenly turned ecstatic and he asked quickly.

    "The plan is coming from An, Bo Yan will come quickly."

    Lu Xun nodded slightly, his eyes were like torches, and he said in a condensed voice.

    "Cao Zixiao's reinforcements are coming in the near future. There is a valley twenty miles southeast of Xiapi. It is the place where Yuzhou must pass to see Xiapi. It is a place where elite soldiers can be ambushed. In the near future, the governor can prepare an offensive in detail under the city. Cao Zixiao has found out and will send troops quickly.  When an attack comes, ambushes will immediately appear on all sides, and they will be defeated by a drum.

    By killing the reinforcements and scattering them, the governor-general can take advantage of them and order the army to attack Surabaya, thereby forcing the old thieves to abandon the city and flee.  At that time, we only need to lay a heavy ambush at the place where he retreated, and we will be able to capture and kill the old thief in one fell swoop!  !  !  "

    Zhou Yu¡¯s face changed rapidly, his eyes flashed with horror, and he suddenly covered his hands and laughed.

    "Hahahaha!! This is a great plan, Bo Yan. Your intelligence is so great that I feel inferior to you!"

    When Lu Xun heard this, he bowed and said humbly.

    "The Governor is ridiculously complimentary. He is just a small talent and cannot be refined. How dare he compare with the Governor."

    "Hey! Don't belittle yourself, Bo Yan. If I can capture and kill old thief Cao, it's all thanks to you!"

    Zhou Yu stepped down, walked up to Lu Xun, and slapped Lu Xun hard on the shoulder, with admiration in his eyes.  After a while, Zhou Yu quickly followed Lu Xun's plan and sent orders to the generals. The generals took the orders and left to make urgent arrangements.

    The next day, Zhou Yu ordered heavy troops to attack Xiapi City. Thirty thousand soldiers and horses concentrated on the north gate to attack. However, the offensive of each army was slow and it was all a bluff.  Cao Cao saw this in the city and frowned. He didn't know what kind of medicine Zhou Yu was selling in his gourd, so he ordered his soldiers to be on guard. At the same time, he also sent people to patrol around the city to be on guard against accidents.

    Zhou Yu was bluffing for days, just when everyone in Cao's army was confused.  Cao Ren led 10,000 troops to rush to Xiapi realm.  Cao Ren suddenly stopped the army and ordered a group of scouts to go to explore the situation of the battle.  The team of scouts took the order and went in gallopingly, and arrived at the Jiangdong military stronghold at night. At that time, Zhou Yu had just withdrawn his troops and returned to the stronghold.  Cao Bing's scouts saw that all the Jiangdong armies seemed to be focusing on attacking the city of Tiapi. As soon as they returned to the camp, they rested and cooked without taking any more precautions.  Cao Bing's scouts watched for a long time and reported back to Cao Ren quickly.  When Cao Ren heard this, he was overjoyed and quickly asked the soldiers to rest for the night to recharge their batteries and launch an attack the next day when Jiangdong Army withdrew its troops and returned to the stronghold.

    That night, Cao Zhang came to find Cao Ren and volunteered to be a pioneer.  Cao Ren raised his eyebrows and recalled a certain past event.  That day when he was in Qiao County, he was extremely surprised when he saw that Cao Zhang actually captured Jiangdong's fierce general Jiang Yin and came to see him.  Later, I heard from Yuzhou soldiers that the city of Xuchang relied on Cao Zhang's bravery to protect the city.  Only then did Cao Ren know that the third son of the Cao family had become a brave general in his own right.  Later, Cao Zhang wanted to fight with the army, and Cao Ren agreed to Cao Zhang's request.  Because Cao Ren understood that if you want to become a general, you must be tempered by war.

    "Uncle, don't worry too much, my nephew will definitely live up to his fate!"

    When Cao Zhang saw Cao Ren pondering, he thought that Cao Ren didn't believe in his strength, so he quickly asked again.  After hearing this, Cao Ren smiled slightly and smiled at Cao Zhang.

      "Haha. It is the king's luck that the Third Young Master has such determination. But war is not as simple as showing off ferocity and fighting with ruthlessness. Zhou Gongjin is a unique genius. You must be more cautious when fighting against him. As the saying goes, what is imaginary is true, and what is true is true.  False. Jiangdong's army seems unprepared, but there may be an ambush on the way. If our army is unprepared, it will be destroyed.

    The vanguard is the leader of an army, and his duty is extremely important. Not only must he fight bravely and seize the opportunity first, but he must also pay attention to the surrounding battle situation and adapt to changes.  If the Third Young Master wants to take on such an important position, he must be extremely cautious.  "

    Cao Ren taught patiently, and Cao Zhang listened attentively. He was talented and intelligent, and he understood most of the truth after listening to it.

    "My uncle's wise words must be kept in mind by my nephew. If my uncle doesn't think that my nephew is not talented, my nephew will die at any time!"

    "Haha. Okay! The general wants to make Zhang Junyi the vanguard general. Would you like the third son to be his deputy? Zhang Junyi is courageous and thoughtful. He is one of the few generals in our army. If you are here  You can definitely learn a lot of skills from him!"

    Cao Ren smiled brightly, Cao Zhang's eyes shone brightly, and he immediately accepted the order.  Cao Ren then summoned Zhang Jia to see them and gave them instructions one by one.

    The next day, Cao Ren organized his army and was ready to go. At noon, he launched his army into action.  Zhang Jia first led 3,000 elite soldiers, together with Cao Zhang, Wang Yue and other generals to take the lead.  Zhang Jia marched all the way, sometimes fast and sometimes slowly. Whenever he reached a dangerous place, he had to do some research first to make sure it was safe, and then he quickly marched.  Cao Zhang watched them one by one, and Zhang Jia would teach Cao Zhang from time to time.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????:  Cao Zhang saw that the valley was completely silent, and there was no sign of an ambush. He rushed over and asked Zhang Jia.

    "Why did General Zhang suddenly stop the process? Did General Zhang discover that there was an ambush in this valley?"

    Open your jaw to listen, but don't answer for now.  After a while, the scout reported back that he had searched around the valley and found no sign of an ambush.  However, Zhang Jaw still did not order the soldiers and horses to continue marching.  Cao Zhang frowned and wanted to ask again.  Opening his jaw, he suddenly pointed at the jungle on the valley.

    "Third Young Master, look at that jungle. There are many broken branches, many stepped indentations on the grass, and there is a faint murderous aura coming from the valley. If my prediction is correct, there must be an ambush here!"

    Hearing this, Cao Zhang was half-convinced and asked anxiously.

    "If so, what should we do now?"

    The tiger¡¯s jaws were open and its eyes were shining brightly. He thought for a while and said in a concentrated voice.

    "You can use a plan to break the ambush. The general will send people to report to the central army quickly. In a short time, the general will lead an army as bait, and the third son will lead the remaining soldiers and horses to ambush around the mouth of the valley. When the general enters the valley and earns the ambush army, he will come out immediately.  The third son then led the ambush army to attack him! Until General Cao's army arrived, he defeated the enemy in one fell swoop!"

    Seeing that Zhang Jia was confident in his words, Cao Zhang did not dare to make any mistakes. He immediately followed Zhang Jia's instructions and led his troops to ambush around the mouth of the valley.  After a while, he opened his jaws and led the army into the valley.  Cao Zhang was outside the valley, concentrating and listening carefully.

    ¡°About half the time it took for the incense sticks to be lit, earth-shattering shouts of murder suddenly erupted in the valley.  There was the sound of countless arrows piercing the air, and the sound of boulders falling to the ground, taking turns to rise up.  Cao Zhang was frightened when he heard this. He thought that if he were to lead the vanguard today, most of him would undoubtedly pass through this valley and be ambushed by Jiangdong's army, and he would be severely damaged.

    Cao Zhang thought to himself, and he couldn't help but admire Cao Ren's foresight and Zhang Jaw's use of troops.  After Cao Zhang finished thinking, he ordered his soldiers to prepare for battle.  After a series of violent sounds, the soldiers opened their jaws and fled out of the valley in panic.  Behind him, there was a troop of soldiers and horses chasing him. The leader was Xu Shengye, a fierce general from Jiangdong.

    Cao Zhang shook his head and saw Xu Sheng's deployment rushing out of the valley mouth, and immediately issued an order.  At this moment, the drums were beating loudly, and Cao Zhang sent out his troops to intercept Xu Sheng's deployment.  Jiangdong soldiers were unexpectedly in chaos.  Zhang Jaw angrily turned around and rushed to fight, leading his army to attack Cao Zhang from front to back.  I saw that Cao Zhang was very brave. He danced the huge black iron sword and rushed into Jiangdong's army. He danced like an airtight man, rushing left and right, like a tiger rushing into a herd of sheep.  When Xu Sheng saw the young general killing all the soldiers in his own army, he glared, shouted loudly, and quickly fired off his horse with his gun drawn.  Cao Zhang was charging to kill when he suddenly saw a general wearing a silver robe and a yellow robe coming towards him. He grinned evilly and was not afraid of counterattack. He rushed forward on his horse and took the lead in attacking.  Cao Zhang swung the black iron giant sword with all his strength and looked at Xu Sheng to strike at the head.  Seeing the huge sword in Cao Zhang's hand, Xu Sheng thought that the attack would be extremely cumbersome, but he did not expect that Cao Zhang had supernatural power and could swing it extremely quickly.  The black iron giant sword came crashing down, Xu Sheng hurriedly reined in his horse to avoid it, Cao Zhang was blinded by the sight, shouted loudly, and slashed horizontally with his sword.  Xu Sheng hurriedly pressed his gun against it, and with a loud bang, Xu Sheng, including his men and horses, were cut back several meters.

    "This boy is so powerful that it's terrifying!!"

    Xu Sheng looked at Cao Zhang with horror on his face.  The evil smile on Cao Zhang's face became even brighter, and he slapped the horse suddenly and wanted to come over to fight.  ??Sheng Hu narrowed his eyes, his face was cold, and he rushed to meet him.  Cao Zhang slashed three times with his sword, but Xu Sheng avoided them all with his agility.  As soon as the three-sword attack stopped, Xu Sheng saw an opening behind Cao Zhang and suddenly fired his gun, stabbing it out.  Unexpectedly, Cao Zhang exposed himself deliberately and dodged quickly. Before Xu Sheng could react, he slashed his chest with his sword.

    In the midst of the lightning and flint, Xu Sheng unleashed the potential in his body, bent down and dodged quickly, and the fierce sword wind blew over.  Xu Sheng was frightened for a while. He fired a shot with all his strength, swung his feet, reined in his horse and retreated.
