The bright moon is in the sky, like a round of jade plate hanging high in the air, and the bright moonlight illuminates the four fields as if it were day.
However, such a bright and beautiful moonlight was tantamount to urging a group of desperate armor soldiers in the night, because their traces were nowhere to be hidden under the moonlight.
This group of soldiers is none other than Taishan Kou, who fled overnight.
Taishan Kou has always been the only one who is the head of Zang Ba, and now that Zang Ba has returned to Gongsun Bai, Taishan Kou's status is undoubtedly extremely embarrassing.
Even if they don't run, sooner or later it will be the fate of being liquidated.
Therefore, after the four people of Taishan, Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li, and Chang Xuan, after discussion, they simply took advantage of Cao Jun's sleep to run away overnight and go in the direction of Puyang.
In just one hour, they had run out of nearly thirty miles, only to make everyone breathless, sweating, and their legs were sore.
"Brother, Cao Jun shouldn't catch up, why don't you let the brothers take a break" Yin Li, the leader of the Taishan Kou, reined in his horse's feet, looked at the panting subordinates behind him, and said to Sun Guan, the head of the four Taishan Kou.
Sun Guan also reined in his horse's feet, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "If the tiger and leopard cavalry and the tiger guards go out, even if they run out of a hundred miles, they can't ensure safety, but they hate that there are no mountains nearby, otherwise once they run into the mountains, Cao Jun can't help me even if they are million." ” Thundered Before the words fell, there was a sudden sharp sound of horses' hooves behind him, which shocked the souls of all Taishan Kou, and Sun Guan and the others turned even pale.
Drive, drive, drive Thousands of cavalry Cao troops galloped in, driving the dust in the sky and rolling over.
These cavalrymen were the elite of Cao's army, and they were all horses of more than seven feet five out of a hundred, and their riding speed was far from being comparable to that of ordinary horses.
Xi Yuyu Cao Ren, who was the leader, rode a horse on his crotch and held a steel gun in his hand, glanced at the messy footprints on the ground, turned around and shouted: "The traitors are ahead, chase me" Click The hooves galloped past, and in the blink of an eye, they were hundreds of meters away.
Cao Jun galloped for several miles, put his hand on the pergola, and saw a black shadow two or three away from a distance, Cao Jun's hundred generals couldn't help but be overjoyed, and shouted loudly: "Quick, catch up, Taishan thieves are in front" The spirit of the knights was greatly lifted, and the horses were like flies, and they galloped away like the wind with the generals.
The black pressure of a piece of Taishan Kou came into everyone's eyes from afar, everyone was full of energy, shouted loudly and rushed up, and soon caught up with the exhausted Taishan Kou, and then swept over from both sides, until galloping to one or two hundred steps away in front of Taishan Kou.
Xi Yuyu Xi Yuyu With the neighing sound one after another, all the Cao soldiers reined in their horses' feet, and then slowly turned their horses' heads and stopped in front of the Taishan Kou.
Sun Guan and the others' faces turned pale, and they roared: "Rush over, fight with them, and you can escape as much as you can."
There are not too many words, both sides are outlaws, and they will fight together if they don't agree with each other.
The sound of screams, shouts of killing, the sound of weapons clashing and the neighing of horses mingled and stirred through the four fields, but in half an hour, the battle was over.
The 20,000 Tarzan Kou infantry were no match for the 3,000 Leopard Cavalry and the 4,000 Tiger Guards, and the 4,000 Tarzan Kou were killed, 5,000 were captured, and the bones were scattered all over the ground, and the blood stained the ground red.
Taishan Kou leaders Yin Li and Chang Feng fought against Cao Ren alone, but they were easily killed by Cao Ren, excluding the killed and captured, as well as those who escaped, only seven or eight thousand followed Sun Guan and Wu Dun to the north and fled for their lives.
A military Sima Zheng was enjoying the killing, and asked Cao Ren: "General, do you want to continue to chase and kill, and kill him without leaving a piece of armor."
Cao Ren sighed slightly, and said in a deep voice: "No need, Duke Lu has an order, don't chase too far, go back" More than 7,000 cavalry of the Cao Army escorted more than 5,000 Taishan prisoners and slowly headed south.
Since then, Taishan Kou no longer existed as an independent army, and some of them were incorporated into the Cao army and part of them into the Gongsun army.
Three days later, more than 80,000 Cao troops finally came to the boundary of Lihu County.
According to legend, the first county of the fox is in the south of Pushui, often pierced by the fox, and then moved to the north of Pushui, so it is said to be from the fox.
Although Lihu is a small city, it is the closest county town to Puyang controlled by Cao Jun, and all the grain and grass in Puyang City have fallen into the hands of Gongsun Jun, and more than 80,000 Cao troops can only supply four or five days of grain and grass, and they are eager to enter Lihu City to replenish it.
A scout came to the dust, rode his horse straight to the carriage where Cao Cao was, and said loudly: "Lord, thirty miles ahead, is away from Fox City, and the county commander in the city is Yang Li, I have learned that the lord is coming, and I want to welcome the lord ten miles away, and I ask the lord to decide." ” Cao Cao and Gongsun Bai, like him, have always been light and simple, and never sit in a car when marching, generally riding a horse and riding a horse with all the soldiers, why is he riding a car and not riding a horse at this moment just because a few days ago, he learned that he was teased by Tai Shici and others, and missed the opportunity to kill Gongsun Bai, and he didn't come up in one breath, and he fainted to the ground in anger, so his body has not been smooth in the past few days, and he was unable to ride a horse, so he had to lie in the carriage and follow the army. ， Cao Cao slowly lifted the curtain, and after hearing the report of the scout, his face seemed to be a lot more rosy in an instant, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "Pass my order, so that Yang Li cannot lead the army out of the city, just meet him at the gate of the city, and be strictly vigilant in the city, pay attention to the movement around the city, and never go out of the pool." ” "Whoa," the scout Pegasus departed.
Cao Cao turned his head and said to the generals guarding around the carriage: "Send the order to go down, step up the march, and be sure to rush to Lihu City before sunset, there must be no mistake."
A few heralds were given the order to leave, and the tens of thousands of soldiers behind them cheered when they heard that they were about to arrive in Lihu City.
Away from the fox city, the embroidered flag on the city tower is like a cloud, and a big flag with the word "Cao" stands in the middle of the city tower, hunting and hunting, which is particularly conspicuous.
At the north gate of the city, the city gate is wide open, and a thousand armor soldiers are lined up on both sides, with swords and halberds like a forest, and the armor is distinct.
In the middle of the queue, the county commander Yang Li, dressed in a red official robe with a jade belt hanging from his waist, sat on a tall horse, with a solemn face, waiting for Cao Cao's arrival.
For a petty official like Lihu County Ling, the dignified prime minister of the dynasty and Duke Wei came to this small city, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and he couldn't wait to greet him hundreds of miles away.
As for what Cao Cao said about exploring the movements around the city, he didn't listen to it at all.
Since Lu Bu withdrew from Yanzhou that year, there has been no war in Lihu City for many years.
In recent days, except for more than half a month ago, Lu Gong led the army to pass through this place, there is no trace of military horse activities, and now when Lu Gong is about to enter the city, there will be no enemy attack What he Yang Li has to do is to tidy up the cleanest and most gorgeous mansion for Lu Gong to rest, arrange the best wine, food and banquets, there has been no war in Fox City for many years, and there is a lot of grain and grass in the county treasury.
The armor soldiers at the gate of the city were neatly arranged, and the defenders on the city tower stood straight one by one, in order to show Lu Gong's majestic demeanor, not to prepare for battle.
The sun rose higher and higher, gradually passing the middle of the sky, and a cadre of defenders and county officials, following Yang Li has been waiting at the door since the morning, not to mention the lunch time, the stomach is hungry and cooing, the scorching sun, when the air is exposed, it will make everyone's faces oily, dizzy, very uncomfortable.
Everyone spent their time like a year, looking at the north with their eyes, hoping that the military horses of Nalu Gong would appear as soon as possible, so that they could finish their errands as soon as possible, and it was indeed not a taste to wait hungry.
Just when everyone was looking through the autumn water, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded in the distance, and everyone was in high spirits and looked over.
The sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, and gradually a group of hundreds of cavalry galloped towards them, all of whom were wearing Cao Jun's clothes and armor, waving the Cao Army banner, and ran straight towards the Lihu City guards at the door.
Yang Li and the others knew that this was Lu Gong's vanguard reporting that the team had arrived, and hurriedly straightened their robes and prepared to greet them.
The horses came closer and closer, and soon ran in front of the two rows of armor guards at the gate of the city, and then Xi Yuyu stopped his horse, and the neighing of the horses came and went.
The first person, dressed in the robe and armor of the military horse, was very burly, holding a snowy steel knife, and did not put nearly a thousand guards from Fox City in his eyes, and the long knife pointed directly at Yang Li, and asked loudly: "Where is the Fox Order?"
The demeanor of the person who came was very arrogant, and his tone was even more aggressive, extremely rude, and the officials behind Yang Li were slightly angry.

The military Sima and the county commander are both officials with a rank of 1,000 stones, and their ranks are equal, but the military Sima sent by Lu Gong pretends to be an official.
However, Yang Li was not angry at all, although there was no such thing as "the seventh official of the Prime Minister's Door" in these years, but he knew that since this military Sima could pass the word on behalf of Duke Lu, he must be a person close to Duke Lu, and he could not be offended.
Therefore, at that moment, Yang Li immediately came out of the crowd, walked forward, and smiled at the army Sima Gong: "Xiaguan Lihu ordered Yang Li, I don't know what this general is called."
The military Sima's eyes lit up, and he smiled: "It turns out that you are Yang Li, very good, very good, very" Before the words fell, a sword light suddenly swept into the air, slashing towards Yang Li like lightning. burst Poor Yang Li was still smiling, and the big head suddenly rose into the sky, and the headless body also gushed blood and slowly fell.
The defenders of Lihu City were in an uproar, but before they could react, the military Sima had already yelled viciously: "Blow the trumpet, take the door" Woooooooo In an instant, the sound of the horn suddenly became louder, and hundreds of cavalrymen viciously brandished their bright steel swords and slaughtered towards the city gate.
With the sound of the horn that rushed to the sky, in the direction of the northwest corner, dust and mist rose into the sky, and the rolling tide of soldiers was surging wildly.
The big banner with the word "Zhang" flew proudly, leading the tide of soldiers to attack and kill.
The general of the Gongsun Army, Zhang Liao led the army to kill until it was not finished
