    The Battle of Runan is still going on.

    Cao Cao¡¯s army was elite, but to Yuan Shu, who had been dealing with the Yangzhou army all year round, it was nothing more than that.

    Now Yuan Shu has only one thought, and that is to make Cao Cao regret!

    A small person can also have great anger, not to mention that Yuan Shu is also a great prince!

    "It's been half a month! Our army has been holding on for half a month!" Yuan Shu suddenly laughed.

    If Cao Cao were here, he would look very ugly.

    What does half a month mean to the Allies?

    The opportunity was fleeting, but Cao Cao was delayed in Runan for half a month.

    Yan Xiang did not disturb the lord's sexual desire. At this critical moment, it requires great confidence to persevere.

    Blocking the Allied attack has become one of Yuan Shu's few pleasures.

    "Lord, we can still guard for another half month." Yan Xiang said.

    Hearing this, Yuan Shu was very happy at first, but then he realized something was wrong.

    Can we only keep it for another half month?

    Runan is Yuan Shu¡¯s foundation. Even in the most difficult times, it was never breached.  Now, it's actually a matter of life and death.

    It¡¯s really sad.

    "If we hold on for another ten days, the situation is not right, let's retreat." Yuan Shu said.

    God knows how determined he was.

    It¡¯s just a Runan County. As long as Yangzhou can survive, it can help him regain it in an instant.

    At this time, Cao Cao was very impatient, because he suddenly discovered that the Allies were like a piece of shit.  Regardless of Sun Ce and Liu Yan, Liu Bei and Yuan Shao are definitely the same.

    Since he made no progress in Runan, he urged Xiapi to send troops. However, Yuan Shao was unfazed and directly replied:

    When we formed the alliance, we agreed that we would only be responsible for holding back the main force in Yangzhou. Now that we have done it, we are waiting for you to attack from a flank!

    This tone makes it sound like Cao Cao is the one holding back.

    Cao Cao almost yelled, but he held it back.

    The plan is indeed like this, but the plan can¡¯t keep up with the changes. Can¡¯t you take some practical actions?

    With his allies unreliable, Cao Cao could only attack Runan.

    For a long time, Cao Cao has been confused by Yuan Shu's image of being a soft persimmon.

    Yuan Shu¡¯s life was either a failure or a lie.  Cao Cao thought he could easily defeat Runan in just two or three days.

    Therefore, Cao Cao ignored Yuan Shu's request to join the alliance, and even ridiculed him.

    Now, Yuan Shu is like a stone in a latrine, smelly and hard.

    Being blocked by a little waste for half a month, even wood will be angry, let alone the proud Cao Cao, the leader of the alliance.

    On this day, Cao Cao issued a death order and said: "Give me the courage to take down Runan!"

    "Yes, lord!" Xiahou Dun said.

    So, Xiahou Dun led the siege troops and set off.

    Cao Cao took the remaining hundreds of thousands of people and formed an array in the city, with the sound of drums shaking the sky.

    He specially ordered people to build a high platform with a big drum on it to attract the wind.

    Cao Cao walked up step by step, picked up the sledgehammer, and beat the drum himself.

    "Look and listen, this is what the lord expects from us. Brothers, take Runan, glory and wealth are right in front of you!" Xiahou Dun encouraged.

    Sure enough, Cao Cao's army showed great courage and 12% combat effectiveness and rushed to the city wall.

    When Yuan Shu saw Cao Cao's sao bag, he knew something was wrong, so he directly pressed forward 10,000 reserve troops to barely hold on.

    Hundreds of wells continuously transported troops to fight to the death on the city wall.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    Cao Cao was still playing the drum, even though his arms were sore and numb, he did not stop.  He didn't stop until the siege troops were far away, and replaced him with a bodyguard in similar clothes to beat the drum.

    "Thank you for your hard work, my lord!" Xia Houyuan said.

    In ancient times, it was rare for the commander to personally beat the drum for the soldiers, and it was inspiring every time.

    Of course, the premise is that the coach loves his soldiers as much as his sons, and Cao Cao just meets this condition.

    "Compared to the soldiers, my hardship and fatigue are nothing?" Cao Cao said modestly.

    "In this way, Runan is just around the corner, haha!" Xia Houyuan said.

    The situation was excellent, but Yuan Shujun looked sick and couldn't resist at all.

      Cao Cao finally settled his worries and could finally see the dawn of victory.

    When the time comes, the scene of Yuan Shu kneeling down and begging for mercy will be very nice. How to torture him?

    Cao Cao was confused all of a sudden.

    However, the next second, the sky suddenly changed!

    The clatter of horse hooves suddenly overwhelmed the thump of drums, and a magnificent cavalry unit came over from the flank.

    Cao Cao was shocked. What did the scouts eat?

    Tens of thousands of cavalry were approaching, but they didn¡¯t notice it. Damn it!

    However, the scout who had become a corpse could no longer answer Cao Cao.

    The cavalry force was divided into two, with one group led by Lu Bu and mainly composed of cavalry and archery, with about 20,000 horses.

    The other group was led by Liu Ke himself and charged directly into the formation.

    Since they were cutting in from the flank, Cao Cao's army was completely unprepared.

    "Kill!" Dian Wei was already crazy, waving his sword, slashing at the enemies blocking his way.

    Liu Ke and Xu Chu were also in a no-man's land, constantly charging and killing.

    Lu Bu¡¯s job is much simpler, shooting from the outside.

    First, they charged. After a hundred steps away, they fired their longbows into the sky. After fifty steps, they took out their Yuanrong crossbows and fired.

    In the last twenty steps, they turned around again with superb riding skills, and the cycle started again.

    Every time a rain of arrows fell, one or two thousand people fell, and countless others were injured.

    Because the formation is dense, it is inevitable to avoid it.

    How could they have imagined that such a cavalry force would suddenly come out?

    This is Runan County, and Yuan Shu is a prince who lacks cavalry.  When he asked Yuan Shao for a war horse, he was scolded.

    Now, tens of thousands of cavalry rushed out, and Cao Cao had only one thought in his mind, that is, the Yangzhou cavalry is coming!

    The Marquis of Dongyang is here!

    "Every battle is invincible and every attack is invincible!" Yangzhou cavalry shouted slogans and charged rampantly.

    Cao Cao stood on a high platform and had the clearest view.  The Yangzhou cavalry was like a sharp knife, cutting through the formation of hundreds of thousands of Cao Cao's troops, and then trampled them into the soil.

    Countless soldiers died in mysterious circumstances, and those who were still alive were in panic.

    Cao Cao closed his eyes in pain and said: "Ming Jin withdraws his troops, and the 40,000 new troops and tiger and leopard cavalry are responsible for breaking up the rear."

    clang clang clang!

    Xiahou Dun, who was still fighting bloody battles, was stunned. He was about to seize the city, but the lord actually paid the price and withdrew his troops?

    "Retreat!" Xiahou Dun roared angrily, and only he himself knew the unwillingness.

    Cao Cao¡¯s army retreated like a tide, and Yuan Shu had the opportunity to poke his head out. Seeing the panic-stricken formation of Cao Cao¡¯s army, he suddenly shouted:

    "The Yangzhou cavalry is coming! The Marquis of Dongyang is coming to save us!"

    Like a child.

    After Liu Ke broke the formation for the first time, he did not continue to rush into the formation.

    Cao Cao's army has reorganized its forces and gathered together to form a large disk.

    Lu Bu was still wandering around the edge of this big disk, his bows and arrows constantly taking away the lives of Cao Cao's troops.  And Liu Ke was also clearing out Cao Cao's army that had not had time to form a formation.

    In this battle, Cao Cao's army suffered heavy losses and lost all spirit.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
