Outside the north gate of Xiangyang, in a dense forest, Wei Yan led the green dragoons to hide here, quietly waiting for their prey to pass by.
But before the prey came, his own people came first.
"General Wei, General Dongfang has an order, ordering the Green Dragoon to dispatch half of the men and horses to Dongcheng to pursue Cao's army" A herald ran over.
"Cao Jun ran away from the east gate," Wei Yan said in surprise.
"Yes," replied the herald.
"Then what are you waiting for, Lao Pei, you lead the troops to continue to guard here, and Ben will go to pursue Cao Ren" Wei Yan suddenly made arrangements.
"General Wei, just go" Now that the Cao army has escaped from the East Gate 8, the pressure on the north gate side will undoubtedly be much less, and Pei Yuanshao is responsible for encircling the Jingzhou army, which is no problem.
Wei Yan's execution was notoriously strong, and as soon as Dongfang Qiang's order arrived, he rushed to the east gate with 20,000 cavalry.
"Cao Ren ran so fast, and the soldiers continued to pursue" When they arrived at the East Gate, the battle here had already ended, and the soldiers of the Wuling Army were cleaning up the battlefield. 20,000 cavalry, which is not very useful for siege, but is used to chase the enemy, it is very different.
If Cao Ren knew that Wei Yan led 20,000 cavalry to chase him, he would definitely not dare to stay for a moment.
In the wilderness, the foot soldiers are not the same number as the opponents of the cavalry, and when the foot soldiers meet the cavalry, the end must be tragic.
"General, there are a large number of Cao troops ahead" News came from the front that made Wei Yan excited.
"Quick, kill it" Wei Yan ordered.
Yu Ban asked for a break, and there were only 2,000 people.
He just wanted to block Cao Ren and them for a while, and let Cao Jun run farther.
This practice of sacrificing himself to protect the army moved Cao Ren Yu Ban had no time to think about anything else at this time, because the sound of rumbling horses' hooves had become clearer and clearer, and he understood that the cavalry of the Wuling Army had arrived.
"Soldiers, fight to the death" Yu Ban shouted loudly.
After staying and breaking, it was originally a life of nine deaths, and the soldiers of Cao Jun also had this awareness.
With Yu Ban by their side, they will not be timid Wei Yan led the cavalry to gallop, but when he arrived here, he found that there were two thousand Cao troops waiting for him here.
Looking at the two thousand Cao troops who were waiting for the battle, Wei Yan sneered: "I can't help myself" How can a circle of 2,000 people stop 20,000 cavalry "Dare to ask who will be Cao in front of you" There was only a little bit of the enemy, and Wei Yan was not in a hurry to destroy it.
Because he saw that in the Cao army's array, there were flags fluttering.
"Ben will be forbidden is also, if you want to pass, first pass this pass" Yu Ban said domineeringly.
"Yu Ban is Cao Jun's name will be banned" Wei Yan asked again.
The name Yu Ban was a little familiar to Wei Yan, but he couldn't tell who Yu Ban was.
"A famous general doesn't dare to be, he is just a young general under the command of the prime minister."
In the forbidden road.
Hearing Yu Ban's modesty, Wei Yan felt that he had caught a big fish.
This person is the general Cao Jun Wei Yan secretly rejoiced in his heart, Yu Ban only had 2,000 people, and he had 20,000 people, if he could capture Yu Ban alive, the credit would be greater than killing thousands of Cao soldiers.
"Surround them," Wei Yan ordered.
The green dragoons were ordered, 20,000 horses ran, and Yu Ban and his 2,000 soldiers were surrounded in the center.
"If you want to kill, you will kill, why is it so" Yu Ban felt that the danger insulted him, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart.
"Kill no no general, Cao Cao's general trend has gone, why not take advantage of the situation to join my Wuling army, with the ability of the general, my lord's guild will be very happy."
Wei Yan said.
Before the fight started, Wei Yan opened his mouth to persuade him to surrender, which made Yu Ban a little crying and laughing.
But when he saw the soldier's hopeful eyes, he was touched a lot in his heart.
To be alive, who wants to die Although these severed Cao soldiers are ready to die.
But when Wei Yan gave him a chance to live, they wavered in their belief in death.
As long as Yu Ban is willing, they can live Cao Ren, and the moment they let them break off, it already shows that they have been abandoned "Thank you General Wei for your love, my Cao army soldiers, swear not to surrender," Yu Ban said.
Seeing that Yu Ban said it categorically, Wei Yan was angry, you don't want to give you a chance to live, then don't blame Ben for being ruthless.
"Yu Ban, you are very good, if you don't surrender, these two thousand people, as long as the general gives an order, if you are willing to join the Wuling Army, you and the soldiers under your command can survive, and you can be selected into the sequence of my Wuling Army.
How to choose, you think again" Wei Yan was ready to give Yu Ban another chance.
If Yu Ban wants to die, then he will also be fulfilled.
"Your mission has been completed, as long as you surrender, Ben will immediately withdraw his troops and no longer pursue Cao Ren," Wei Yan said again.
This sentence shocked Yu Ban's heart.
Wei Yan's command is all cavalry, although some time has been wasted here, but it is only a matter of time to catch up with Cao Ren.

No matter how you run on two legs, you can't run on four legs, and after being caught up, Cao Jun is very dangerous.
In that case, even if he and the 2,000 soldiers were all killed in battle, what would be the point?
Yu Ban began to struggle in his heart surrendered, his own reputation was ruined, but he could save Cao Ren and Cao Jun.
After insisting on breaking off, not only will he die, but none of the two thousand people behind him will be able to escape, and Cao Ren may be caught up, which is completely meaningless.
How to choose After struggling, Yu Ban felt that he still gave up himself to protect Cao Jun "I surrender" In the end, Yu Ban made a choice.
"Hahaha, welcome General Yu to join the Wuling Army" Wei Yan was very happy, and after Yu Ban came out, he greeted him personally.
"Bah, greedy for life and afraid of death" After Yu Ban was born, several Cao soldiers were emotional, and kept scolding Yu Ban in their minds, Yu Ban surrendered to the enemy, and betrayed Cao Cao.
"Arrest those who insulted the generals of our army" Yu Ban is now a member of the Wuling Army, and the danger will not let him be wronged.
Hearing the constant scolding in Cao Jun's array, Wei Yan wanted to kill those early birds.
"General Wei, forget it, they are my subordinates after all."
Yu Ban said.
Whether it was the soldiers who scolded him or the soldiers who secretly hated him, they all fought together under his command.
Yu Ban couldn't bear to let Wei Yan deal with them.
"Okay, just listen to the general," Wei Yan said.
It's not himself who scolds, he won't force his head.
Yu Ban surrendered, and except for a dozen die-hard loyalists of the 2,000 Cao soldiers, the rest of the people surrendered with Yu Ban.
Wei Yan kept his promise, and after the ban surrendered, he really stopped chasing and killing Cao Ren.
When Wei Yan returned to Xiangyang with Yu Ban, the city of Xiangyang was already owned by the Wuling Army.
Some sporadic resistance in the city has been unable to make any waves.
"General Yu Ban, welcome" Dongfang Qiang saw Yu Ban, and his heart was also very happy.
He didn't expect that Wei Yan would be able to bring him such a big surprise
