At the critical moment, I saw a general Pegasus coming, and the long knife in his hand fell like lightning, slashing the two foot soldiers, and dismounted to rescue Cao Cao.
Cao Cao raised his eyes and saw that it was his general Cao Hong.
Cao Cao sighed and said to Cao Hong: "My horse broke its leg and can't run out, brother Xian, you can ride away."
Cao Hong knelt down on one knee and said to Cao Cao: "My lord, please get on the horse quickly, I am willing to walk" Cao Cao shook his head and said: "I rode your horse, what should I do if the thieves catch up with you, it's not appropriate?"
Cao Hong said solemnly: "The world can do without me Cao Hong, but you can't do without you."
Cao Cao said movingly: "If I can escape, it's all your credit, brother Xian, but please rest assured, when I escape this catastrophe, I will be reused for you."
Cao Cao jumped on his horse, but Cao Hong thought that the armor was heavy and hindered, so he took off his armor and dragged his knife to follow Cao Cao's horse closely.
When he walked to about four watches, he suddenly saw a big river blocking the way in front of him.
The voice of the chasing soldiers behind faintly came, and Cao Cao sighed and said: "My life is on hold, but I am afraid that I will be buried here today."
Cao Hong hurriedly said: "The lord doesn't have to be like this, it's not to that point yet."
After speaking, Cao Hong took off his battle robe and carried Cao Cao across the river.
As soon as he crossed the river, the pursuers behind had already chased and killed, and fired arrows across the river.
Fortunately, the river is wide, and the arrows have lost their strength after they have been shot.
Cao Cao got down from Cao Hong, and the two hurriedly fled down the riverbank.
Running until dawn, the two of them ran for about twenty or thirty miles, and they were tired and panting and sweating profusely.
I couldn't run anymore, so the two of them sat down on a dirt hill to rest for a while.
Suddenly, the sound of killing rang out, and the two looked back in panic, but it was Xu Rong who crossed the river from the upper reaches to chase and kill.
Cao Cao couldn't help but shout: "My life is over" Xu Rong led all the cavalry, and in an instant, he rushed to Cao Cao, raised the big knife in his hand, and cut it down.
Cao Cao felt that all thoughts were lost, and he couldn't help but close his eyes tightly.
Then Cao Cao only heard a pop, and a fishy hot liquid spilled on his face.
Then I heard Cao Hong next to him shouting loudly: "Lord, come with me" Well Didn't you die just now?
Cao Cao opened his eyes in disbelief to find that Xu Rong had been killed by an arrow.
Behind him, a cavalry rushed towards him, about eighty or ninety paces away, and the cavalry on horseback took out their bows and arrows and shot forward one after another.
Cao Hong hurriedly pulled Cao Cao to the side.
Xu Rong brought the cavalry that pursued Cao Cao, but they were soon killed, and Xu Rong was dead, and the remaining cavalry fled.
Then one of the generals jumped off his horse and laughed loudly: "Mengde is not harmed."
Cao Cao looked up and saw that the person who spoke turned out to be Lu Bu.
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, it was Lu Bu who saved him.
Thinking of his wedding banquet again, he actually sent someone to assassinate Lu Bu and Cao Cao, and couldn't help but feel ashamed. couldn't help but hug his fists at Lu Bu and said: "Thank you for saving your life first, it's unforgettable."
Lu Bu laughed and said: "What kind of friendship do we have, Meng De, don't be polite to me."
Hearing Lu Bu say this, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel even more ashamed Lu Bu said to Cao Cao: "Meng De, you take a rest, put away the old department, and I will continue to hunt down and kill Dong Thief."
Cao Cao solemnly said to Lu Bu: "Be careful first" Lu Bu nodded, got on his horse, and galloped towards Xu Rongde's remnants.
Cao Cao gathered his soldiers and horses, and finally brought more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, leaving only more than 500 remnants of the defeated generals.
This point, if you continue to hunt down Dong Zhuo, you will undoubtedly commit suicide.
So Cao Cao took his soldiers and horses and turned around and headed for Hanoi.
Lu Bu and Guan Yu led 5,000 cavalry and quickly slaughtered all the soldiers and horses that Xu Rong had pursued.
Then Lu Bu asked the soldiers to cook and rest on the spot, and then went to hunt down Dong Zhuo after eating.
In the handsome tent, Guan Yu couldn't help but say to Lu Bu: "Big brother, at Cao Cao's wedding, Cao Cao sent someone to assassinate you, why didn't you kill Cao Cao just now?"
Lu Bu smiled slightly and said: "Now Yuan Shao is the leader of the crusade against Dong Zhuo, his prestige has been established, the fourth generation and the third prince of the Yuan family, and the people who defected to Yuan Shao are like carp crossing the river.
The reason why I didn't kill Cao Cao was because I wanted to leave Cao Cao to contain Dong Zhuo. ” If it weren't for this, Lu Bu would have killed Cao Cao a long time ago, and he would still be able to keep this scourge However, if Cao Cao is killed, Yuan Shao will really have no enemies in the north.
There are many families who defected to Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao can easily gather hundreds of thousands of troops, and if there is no force that can contain Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao can easily dominate the north.
When the time comes, the decisive battle with Yuan Shao will be broken.
After listening to Lu Bu's words, Guan Yu seemed to understand whether he understood or not, but since the eldest brother said so, there must be a reason for the eldest brother, and Guan Yu resolutely obeyed.
After eating, Lu Bu led the soldiers and horses to chase and kill all the way along Dong Zhuo's westward route.
However, the speed at which Lu Bu's army was advancing was not fast, and now Lu Bu needed some information about Dong Zhuo's army.

Dong Zhuo's army took the gold, silver and jewelry he looted, as well as countless grains and grasses, as well as hundreds of thousands of people, and the walking speed was definitely not fast.
Therefore, Lu Bu is not afraid that he will not be able to catch up with Dong Zhuo.
What Lu Bu wants to figure out most now is the deployment of Dong Zhuo's marching army.
Lu Bu only brought 5,000 cavalry, and was not prepared to fight Dong Zhuo's army.
If he really wanted to die, the 5,000 cavalry he led with him suffered heavy casualties.
Now Lu Bu just wants to bring over the people, as well as the gold, silver, jewelry, grain, and grass that Dong Zhuo looted.
The next day, Lü Bu made a detour to a small town in front of him, contacted the CIA personnel in the town, and finally figured out Dong Zhuo's marching deployment.
It turned out that Dong Zhuo's army was opening the road in front, in the middle was Li Ru with 10,000 horses to escort the people and grain and grass, and behind Zhang Ji 5,000 men and horses were broken.
After receiving the exact news, Lü Bu ordered his soldiers to speed up. chased all the way to Shaanxi County, and Lu Bu finally caught up with Zhang Ji's 5,000 soldiers and horses.
These 5,000 soldiers and horses were all infantry, because Dong Zhuo didn't expect that he had already gone so far, and there were still princes chasing after him from behind.
Zhang Jide's 5,000 soldiers and horses were burying pots and cooking, and where Zhang Ji'an was camped, there was not even decent military defense such as antlers.
When they heard the deafening sound of horses' hooves behind them, they couldn't help but panic.
Zhang Ji finally gathered his team and picked up his sword and gun, and at this time, Lu Bu's five thousand cavalry had already been killed.
Zhang Jide's 5,000 soldiers had just set up a defensive formation, and the first round of Lu Bu's 5,000 cavalry had already begun.
Five thousand arrows cut through the beautiful parabola in mid-air, and fell towards Zhang Jide's 5,000 infantry phalanx.
In the first round of projectiles alone, the soldiers of the Zhang Ji phalanx suffered hundreds of casualties, and the formation was chaotic
