In September 195 AD, Zhou Cheng continued to increase troops toward Luoyang.

This time, 30,000 prisoners of war were transferred from Jizhou.

Commanding this army and horses are Li Meng, Wang Fang, and Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun was in Buyeo and killed nearly ten thousand people from Buyeo and Goguryeo.

Later, Zhou Cheng asked Zhao Yun to go south again.

Zhao Yun did not resist Zhou Cheng's order.

Moreover, as a general, Zhao Yun also likes to lead troops in battle.

Although Zhao Yun still knows that he is still inferior to Zhang Liao, Xu Huang and others in commanding troops and horses, he is also growing.

Li Meng and Wang Fang were both generals of Xiliang. Now after surrendering to Zhou Cheng, they both received rewards, land, money, and women.

Therefore, they are still very satisfied with Zhou Cheng, the new lord.

This time Zhou Cheng asked them to cross the river and go south, with the purpose of persuading Duan Xuan, Xu Rong and others to surrender.

Of course, Duan Xuan, Xu Rong and others do not need to go to Jizhou immediately. They can still guard Xingyang and Sishui Pass as the"Xiliang Army"

……

When Wang Fang and Li Meng arrived in front of Sishui Pass, Duan Xuan did not order the arrows to be fired.

Wang Fang was on the horse, clasping his fists and shouting towards the city:"Brother Zhongming, you are well."

Duan Xuan said,"I am very good, what are you doing here?"

Wang Fang said,"There is indeed something important. I need you. Let’s discuss it in private."

Duan Yan couldn’t help but frown when he heard this.

Ever since Fan Chou was lured to Luoyang and killed by Guo Si, Duan Xuan and others were frightened, fearing that it would be their turn next.

Li Meng said:"We were both generals in Dong Gong's department. Although Dong Gong died, we still need to work together. Today, I have been ordered by my lord to come to talk to you. If we can negotiate, we can avoid using weapons. You also know The courage of my lord means the strength of our army."

Duan Xuan thought for a while, and then said to Wang Fang and Li Meng:"Let's talk after we enter the pass."

Then, Duan Xuan ordered people to lower the suspension bridge, open the door, and put Wang Fang in and Li Meng came in.

After Wang Fang and Li Meng entered the pass, they handed their swords and guns to the Xiliang soldiers beside them in front of Duan Xuan.

"please."Duan Xuan introduced them into the pass, and sent people to prepare wine and meat, and they chatted while eating.

……

At the same time, Zhao Yun led a ten thousand death fighting battalion to Xu Huang's army.

Xu Huang and Zhao Yun had already met each other. Although their relationship was not so good, they were both Zhou Cheng's generals, so they should have more contact with each other.

Xu Huang said:"I have heard about Zilong a long time ago. If I want to defeat Cao Cao, I need to borrow Zilong's courage."

This is not a compliment.

Cao Cao has many powerful generals under his command, so they should not be underestimated.

Zhao Yun's martial prowess has been proven. With his help, it will be easier for Xu Huang to defeat Cao Cao.

Zhao Yun replied:"I will try my best."

Early the next morning.

Cao Cao was leading his army and horses to confront Xu Huang.

The two armies formed an array in an open area outside Zhongmu County.

Cao Cao only used the square formation. The large square formations are composed of small square formations. This is called the"formation within the formation." Moreover, it is thin in the middle and thick in the square, which means that there are more troops around, less troops in the middle, and less troops in the middle. , you can bluff, and with more troops around, you can also effectively defend against the enemy.attack.

Of course, the square formation is a formation that is relatively balanced in both offense and defense.

In comparison, Xu Huang arranged a cone formation.

The so-called cone formation is a battle formation with a cone-shaped forward. The cone formation must have a sharp and fast forward and strong and powerful wings. It can attack the enemy in a narrow front through the elite forward, break through and split the enemy's formation, and expand the results of the battle on both wings. , is a formation that emphasizes offensive breakthroughs.

Zhou Cheng's command has more cavalry, so it is most suitable to use a cone formation to charge and attack proactively.

After more than a month of confrontation.

The food and fodder in Cao Cao's camp has been almost exhausted.

Even if Xu Huang doesn't take the initiative to ask for a fight, Cao Cao still has to find a way to get out of the current predicament.

Otherwise, we will really be pinned down in Zhongmou and trapped in Yingchuan, unable to advance or retreat.

Xiahou Dun said:"My lord, go call the formation!""

"Um."Cao Cao nodded in agreement.

At this time, Xiahou Dun kicked his horse and came to Xu Huang's formation, shouting:"Who dares to fight with a certain person?

Xu Huang said to Zhao Yun:"Zilong.""

Zhao Yunting shot out his gun.

At this time, Cao Cao also noticed Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun was wearing a white robe, riding a white horse, and holding a bright silver gun. He was indeed extraordinary.

Cao Cao pointed at Zhao Yun from a distance and asked,"Who is this?"

Cao Hong, Cao Ren and others did not recognize Zhao Yun.

At this time, Xiahou Dun raised his sword and asked:"Who are you?

Zhao Yun replied:"Changshan is really sure of Zhao Zilong!"

Xiahou Dun said:"Unknown person!""

Although Zhao Yun was undefeated against Lu Bu in the Battle of the Nine Gates, it did not make Zhao Yun truly famous.

Coupled with the communication problems of this era, Xiahou Dun only knew that in the Battle of the Nine Gates, Xu Huang and Xu Gongming attacked Lu Bu, and I don’t know Zhao Yun.

The two horses crossed each other.

Dang!

The bright silver gun in Zhao Yun’s hand was like a poisonous snake, biting directly towards Xiahou Dun’s face.

Fortunately, Xiahou Dun reacted quickly enough, otherwise he would have been killed due to carelessness.

Then, Zhao Yun immediately pulled the reins and let The war horse turned around and charged at Xiahou Dun again.

Dang! Dang! Dang!

The bright silver spear in Zhao Yun's hand danced, and the gun shadow was dazzling.

After more than 20 rounds, Xiahou Dun's pressure doubled, and he gradually lost ground.

Xiahou Yuan saw Like him, he rode out on horseback to support Xiahou Dun.
