    [We have opened an author survey, I hope everyone will participate enthusiastically, thank you!  ¡¿

    Zhang Liao touched the concave spot on his chest and couldn't help but take a long breath.  Fortunately, the armor I am wearing is of high quality, otherwise the arrow just now would have penetrated my armor and hit me in the heart!

    He frowned slightly and asked Shi Gang, the commander of the Jiangdong Army who had just surrendered: "Shi Gang, tell me the truth, where did this cavalry come from?"

    Shi Gang smiled and said: "General, I really don't know about this. We didn't bring cavalry when we set out from Jiangdong. We just got more than a hundred horses in Luyang some time ago. Sun Jian regarded them as treasures and didn't care about them at all.  Allowed to fight on the front line. After we set off from Dagu this time, Sun Jian gave Huang Gai ten war horses in order to facilitate communication. I really don¡¯t know where these cavalry came from!"

    "You're lying!" Hao Meng next to him suddenly raised his whip and hit him hard on the cheek, leaving a clear whip mark.

    Shi Gang was immediately pulled off his horse and fell heavily into a small puddle on the roadside, splashing mud and water all over him.  But he didn't care about crawling out, or covering the wound on his face with his hands. He just knelt in the mud and kowtowed repeatedly: "General, spare your life, general, spare your life!"

    Hao Meng looked at his soft and fluffy appearance and couldn't help but laugh, and said contemptuously to Zhang Liao: "Wen Yuan, you are such a weakling, and you still treat him like a treasure. It's really embarrassing to have such a subordinate."  The faces of us Bingzhou people!¡±

    Zhang Liao shook his head gently, "Brother Hao, even a dog has its uses. Besides, beating a dog depends on the owner!"

    Hao Meng snorted coldly: "It's just a hundred cavalry, what's there to boast about? I have more than two thousand people!"

    While muttering, Hao Meng rode away.

    Zhang Liao shook his head slightly again, sighed, and said to Shi Gang who was kneeling on the ground: "Let's think about it again. If you have anything to add, you have also seen that the army has reserved your life and official position for me."  Very dissatisfied! If you have no value, then"

    Shi Gang broke out in a cold sweat and said repeatedly: "I remembered General, those people must be Cao Ang's men!"

    "Cao Ang? Cao Cao's eldest son?" Zhang Liao asked in surprise: "He has no territory at all, how can he have the money to buy cavalry?"

    "It is said that Wang Kuang gave him a lot of money, and the entire Hanoi County provided him with logistical support!" Shi Gang quickly replied, which included both the news he had learned and his own speculation: "Our three armies are going north together.  , the cavalry in Bao Xin¡¯s army are only used as scouts and messengers, only Cao Ang has an elite cavalry!¡±

    Zhang Liao nodded, "I see. No wonder those cavalry evacuated immediately after rescuing Huang Gai and didn't care about you little soldiers and generals. Shi Gang, since you have joined our Bingzhou Army, you can change your name. Sun Jian and the others  They are all thieves!"

    "Yes, yes!" Shi Gang replied quickly.

    "Go ahead and try your best to persuade those captured soldiers to surrender. You are Du Bo now. If you persuade 100 people to surrender, I will promote you to the rank of garrison general. If you persuade 200 people to surrender, I will promote you to the rank of military marquis. If you persuade 200 people to surrender, I will promote you to the rank of military marquis.  You are the music leader!¡±

    Shi Gang asked in surprise: "General, really? Okay! I will definitely work hard!"

    Seeing Shi Gang leaving happily, Zhang Liao shook his head gently and rode his horse to report the situation to Lu Bu's tent.  Zhang Liaocai didn't want to be like Gao Shun, who solved everything by himself, which made Lu Bu suspicious of him, thinking that Gao Shun and he were plotting against him.  Since you have chosen Lu Bu, you must show respect for him.

    When he arrived at Lu Bu's tent, Zhang Liao found that Hao Meng, Cheng Lian, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Hou Cheng and others were all in the tent, but Gao Shun was not there.  He couldn't help but shook his head slightly and told Lu Bu everything he knew.

    After listening to his story, Lu Bu nodded repeatedly: "No wonder there are more cavalry in the Jiangdong Army, that's it! In the battle just now, although Huang Gai escaped, the Jiangdong Army was completely destroyed, which is gratifying!  Everyone here will be rewarded ten gold coins!"

    "Thank you, Lord, for the reward!" The generals quickly stood up and thanked them loudly.  Although ten gold is not a lot, it is mainly for face.  As for the aloof Gao Shun, everyone subconsciously avoided his existence. Who made him so unsociable!

    Lu Bu said in a deep voice: "Since Cao Ang's cavalry appears here, his troops are probably nearby. Hou Cheng, you take the scout team and send out immediately to reconnoiter the enemy. Song Xian leads more than a hundred cavalry to pursue him.  The remnants of the enemy's cavalry and the rest of the troops will continue their march after resting for an hour, without any delay!"

    The generals all bowed their hands and obeyed the order, and filed out.  But Lu Bu stopped Zhang Liao again and said to him: "Wen Yuan, go see Gao Shun and find him some carts to transport the armor. This guy just doesn't know how to have a good relationship."?It is estimated that no one is willing to offer him help!  "

    Zhang Liao quickly said: "The lord takes such good care of him, Gao Shun's trapped camp will definitely be more loyal to the lord!"

    Lu Bu sighed, did not answer, and waved Zhang Liao to leave.  Although everyone is from Bingzhou, Lu Bu took over the position of coach after killing Ding Yuan. Although some people from Bingzhou obeyed his orders, they always complained about him, such as Gao Shun.

    An hour passed quickly. At this time, Hou Cheng also came to report that he had discovered Cao Ang's camp.  Lu Bu immediately led his generals to go and conduct reconnaissance in person.

    Not only did everyone arrive in front of Cao Ang's camp, but they found that Cao Ang had already prepared, the camp gate was closed, and the archers had already stood ready.  Hou Cheng and his cavalry gave it a try, but were soon forced back near Yijiandi.

    Lu Bu couldn't help but frowned. The opponent had a relatively solid camp as support, and was equipped with antlers, horses and antlers. Compared with Huang Gai who was caught off guard, he had more strength to hold on.

    Zhang Liao frowned, moved closer to Lu Bu, and whispered: "My lord, it seems that Cao Ang has been prepared for a long time. Look at his stronghold walls. They are all made of two layers of rough wood. If it weren't for time,  It¡¯s not allowed, I guess it must be filled with earth and rocks!¡±

    "I didn't expect Cao Ang to be so well prepared!" Lu Bu sighed and asked loudly: "Is Song Xian back? Has he captured the other party's important personnel?"

    Song Xian quickly rode over and said, "Your lord, we have captured seventeen enemy cavalrymen during this trip. After interrogation, nine of them were found to be left. According to their confessions, enemy generals Han Hao and Huang Gai have fled into the dense forest. It is difficult to find them."  Arrest. However, Huang Gai has just recovered from his serious injury and should not be able to withstand too much trouble! Either he will become seriously ill or die, so don¡¯t worry, my lord!"

    Lu Bu nodded, "If you give him an advantage, let them feed the mosquitoes in the dense forest. You can escort all the captured cavalry to the front of the formation and let them loudly persuade them to surrender and shake the enemy's morale!"

    Song Xian immediately agreed, and soon led nine wounded prisoners to Cao Ying and asked them to kneel down one by one.  Just listen to the prisoners crying, begging for mercy, and calling the names of the soldiers in the camp they know, asking them to put down their weapons and raise their hands to surrender.

    But at this moment, one of the prisoners suddenly shouted loudly: "I am Han Laoqi, Han Hao and Huang Gai are safe and sound!"

    As soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked to the ground by a soldier from the Bingzhou Army, and was severely whipped on his shoulder by a whip.  But Han Laoqi was still shouting loudly: "Han Hao and Huang Gai are fine, please don't worry, my lord! Don't worry!"

    At this moment, Song Xian stabbed him in the back of the heart. Han Laoqi groaned, twisted into a shrimp, and kept trembling!  Blood kept pouring out from his wound, but at this moment of his death, Han Laoqi was still shouting with all his strength: "Don't worry, Lord"

    Cao Ang wiped his wet eyes and roared angrily: "Prepare the rocket, let go!"

    Hearing his order, dozens of archers immediately lit the rockets in their hands and shot forward with all their strength.  It's just that Song Xian's troops are located just a stone's throw away, and the rockets can't hit them at all.

    Song Xian laughed loudly. It was really a joke that such a large camp only had so many archers.  Seeing Lu Bu's signal, Song Xian shouted loudly: "Attack!"

    After hearing his order, hundreds of soldiers immediately rushed forward with wooden shields.

    At this time, the camp remained silent. Seeing them rushing closer and closer, Li Dian, the commander of the archers in the camp, shouted loudly: "Archers, shoot!"

    Hearing his order, five hundred archers fired arrows at the same time, and heard the arrows falling from the sky continuously, nailing hard on the wooden shield, making a thumping sound.  From time to time, arrows penetrated through the gaps in the wooden shields and pierced the soldiers' bodies with a thud.  But all the soldiers who could still move rushed forward with all their strength. No one dared to stay where they were, because staying where they were would mean death!

    Song Xian's men rushed closer and closer, and soon ran to the edge of the village wall. At this time, the soldiers on guard on the wall also raised their bows and arrows, aimed at the soldiers rushing over, and fired continuously.

    Being able to serve as the vanguard of the entire army, Song Xian's men are all elite men. However, even the most elite warriors cannot easily climb the two-meter-high village wall without the help of tools.

    Song Xian's men kept slashing at the wall blocking the road with their swords, but before they could make a few cuts, they were killed by arrows shot from an angle, or by Cao Jun's guards on the wall.  The spear pierced the chest.

    I saw that the soldiers were just focused on killing, but the soldiers gathered in front of the wall were getting thinner and thinner, and their number was getting smaller and smaller!  Soon someone discovered that their comrades on the left and right were lying in a pool of blood. They shouted loudly and cried, turned around and ran away, and were then killed by Cao Jun's archers.Unceremoniously shot to the ground.

    Song Xian's soldiers waved their swords and shouted loudly to supervise the battle, but the defeated soldiers didn't care about them and just ran back with their heads lowered.  Seeing that Song Xian did not give an order to kill him, these soldiers who temporarily served as supervising the battle team also stood aside and watched.

    The first trial attack failed!
