Zhao Yun led a thousand troops to ambush in the dense forest of Chenyuan Valley. This valley is about twenty miles away from Xicheng, which is the only way to go north to Jicheng. The valley is ten miles long, about meter wide at the widest point, and less than twenty feet narrow at the narrowest point. The high hillsides on both sides are relatively gentle, and there are large dense forests, which is a great place for hidden soldiers to ambush.

Zhao Yun knew that he had to face more than 10,000 Cao's army, so the thousand troops he led were elites among the Han army, and one of the ten thousand surrender troops selected from more than 100,000 Cao's prisoners of war after the Battle of Chibi. This army was originally Lu Bu's spear army, which fought south and north, and had strong combat effectiveness. After Lu Bu was destroyed, he was incorporated by Cao's army and later surrendered to Jiangxia.

The army is mainly spears and is carrying military crossbows, so it is also called the Gun Crossbow Army. Whether this army can rely on this army to intercept Cao's army heading north is the key to the entire battle situation. Zhao Yun was a little nervous and sweated when his palms were clenched.

At this time, a scout ran to report: "General, eight enemy patrol inspectors were shot and killed. In addition, they found that a large group of Cao troops heading north and about to enter the valley, with about 15,000 people. The general is Xiahou Yuan."

Zhao Yun nodded and whispered: "Send the whole army to prepare, listen to my order to release the crossbow."

The order was quickly conveyed. Thousand Han soldiers lit up crossbows and arrows, and looked at the bottom of the valley with all their concentration. Under the moonlight in the distance, a mighty army was marching quickly and quickly entered the valley. They surrounded dozens of cavalrymen. The general was eight feet tall, majestic, with a tiger-backed and bear-backed waist, holding a large iron spear in his hand, and a black horse under his crotch, like a rebirth of the overlord.

This person was Xiahou Yuan, an important general under Cao Cao's tent, and was also the deputy general of Cao's army's western expedition. According to Xun You's plan, Cao Cao ordered Xiahou Yuan to immediately lead 15,000 troops to head north after Xu Huang's army arrived in Xicheng, cut off the food supply of Liu Jing's army, and attack the Han army from behind when the battle broke out.

It can be said that this is an important flash in Xun You's series of plans, which connects the enticing plan with the surprise plan. If Xiahou Yuan can succeed, then Xun You's series of plans will be basically successful.

While urging his horse to march, Xiahou Yuan looked at the valley. He considered that he could deploy an army within the valley, which could not only block the food route, but also attack the Han army heading north to support Liu Jing. The conditions of this valley were very suitable for an ambush.

Thinking of this, Xiahou Yuan turned around and asked, "What is the name of this valley?"

"Report to the general, this valley is called the valley of sin."

Xiahou Yuan was shocked. There was a word Yuan in his name, but it was called Chenyuan Valley. This was not good for him. He hurriedly asked: "The Investigator has never inspected this valley."

"I went to the front and didn't come back to report. There should be nothing wrong."

Xiahou Yuan was full of suspicion. Not coming back to report it did not mean that nothing was wrong. Perhaps the Investigator was shot and killed. He looked into the dense forests on both sides and ordered: "Stop moving forward and send the Investigator to the mountain to investigate."

Under the moonlight, Zhao Yun saw it very clearly. He stared at Xiahou Yuan tightly. He found an opportunity. At this time, Zhao Yun saw that Cao's army stopped moving forward and immediately ordered: "Shoot at the enemy generals."

A sound of buzzing sound suddenly sounded in the valley, and the sound was crisp and spread throughout the valley. This was the order of arrows. The thousand Han troops lying on both sides shot arrows together. The overwhelming crossbow arrows shot at the Cao army in the valley. The Cao army was caught off guard and screamed in a panic. Several people were shot to the ground. The Cao army soldiers suddenly became in chaos, and everyone rushed back and fled back, crowded on the valley road more than twenty feet wide. The soldiers trampled on each other, cried and screamed one after another.

Xiahou Yuan waved his spear and called the arrows. Most of the twenty cavalrymen around him were shot, with only four or five cavalry left. They were all panicked and urged him to escape. Xiahou Yuan couldn't help but be furious and turned around and shouted: "No one is allowed to mess around, keep my feet calm."

At this moment, the drums sounded loudly on the mountain, and the thousands of Han troops rushed down with spears. A white war horse was as fast as lightning, swooping down from a mountain road. The general immediately had a silver armor spear, and the helmet and tassels on his head fluttered in the wind. The horse was fierce and the spear was fierce, just like a god descending to earth. It was Zhao Yun.

When Zhao Yun saw that there were not many personal guards around Xiahou Yuan, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He had to seize this opportunity. When he mentioned the war horse, the war horse jumped over the heads of several cavalrymen. In the air, Zhao Yun stabbed Xiahou Yuan with a shot.

Zhao Yun's horse was fast and arrived in front of him in an instant. Xiahou Yuan was not too careful to be wary. He was shocked and swung his gun out in panic. Unexpectedly, he was empty. The tip of the gun suddenly disappeared in front of him. He knew that the danger had arrived, so he instinctively turned his neck, avoided Zhao Yun's fatal shot, shouted loudly, and stabbed Zhao Yun's war horse.

At this time, Zhao Yun had already rushed behind him. Before the front hooves of the war horse had landed, Zhao Yun stabbed Xiahou Yuan with a backhand. This shot was a resurgence. No one in the world could attack twice in a row before the war horse landed, but Zhao Yun could do it.

This shot was faster than lightning. Before Xiahou Yuan could react, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck, and his eyes suddenly became dark, and the cold tip of the gun had pierced Xiahou Yuan's neck.

Just as the war horse landed, Zhao Yun raised his arms and the tip of the spear suddenly stirred up in Xiahou Yuan's neck. Xiahou Yuan's head suddenly flew up, blood splattered, and Xiahou Yuan's body fell off the horse. The general who had been in the world for twenty years finally died under Zhao Yun's gun on Qishandao.

At this time, Zhao Yun's war horse had already landed. Zhao Yun pulled the reins with one hand, held a gun with one arm and stabbed it into the air with one hand, and pierced the head of a person with one shot. Zhao Yun raised his head and rode his horse and shouted: "Xiahou Yuan is dead, the head is here."

Qianhan army also broke into Cao's army from both sides, and they shouted: "Xiahou Yuan died, Xiahou Yuan died."

The Han army was greatly motivated and fought bravely to kill the enemy. They formed dozens of spear formations, which were unstoppable on the valley road, killing Cao's corpses everywhere and retreating step by step. At this time, the morale of the Cao army was in chaos and the morale was sluggish. When the main general died, they had no intention of fighting and rushed southward.

Deputy General Li Dian led thousands of people as the rear army. His team could still stabilize the position, but the chaos ahead was in chaos. The defeated army rushed like a tide, disrupting the rear army's position, and the rear army also became in chaos. At this time, a general shouted: "General Li, General Xiahou was killed."

Li Dian was stunned and asked hurriedly: "Is it true or false?"

"I'm really dead. I was stabbed to death by Zhao Yun. It's right in Zhao Yun's hands. What I see in front of me."

At this time, a long roar came from the sound of the valley, and then a shout like thunder came, "I am Zhao Long, Changshan, whoever blocks me will die."

A general killed the Cao army crowd and rushed over, killing the Cao army crowd. Wherever his war horses and spears passed, those who blocked others died, and those who blocked others died. Under his gun, corpses piled up. Cao army soldiers were so scared that they were scattered and shouted desperately to run away.

Li Dian recognized Zhao Yun and saw the head of Xiahou Yuan on his waist. At this time, Zhao Yun urged his horse to come to Li Dian. Li Dian felt a sense of fear and turned his head to flee. Five thousand Cao troops, under the battle between Zhao Yun and the elite troops of the Thousand Han Army, collapsed. The corpses were everywhere in the valley, and blood flowed into a river. Even the surrendered were stabbed to death by the soldiers.

Most of the Cao army was killed and injured, and thousands of soldiers fled out of the valley. Following the deputy general Li Dian to flee to Xicheng in panic, Zhao Yun wiped blood from his face and turned around and shouted, "The whole team, follow me to fight back to Xicheng."

The offensive and defensive battle outside the Han army camp was at its bloodiest moment. Fifty thousand Cao troops took turns to attack the Han army camp. The sound of drums and shouts of killing resounded throughout the field, and arrows were like rain, woven into a net of arrows in the air.

Huge fireballs and wooden barrels filled with tinder oil swept over Cao Jun's head and smashed into the crowd. The barrels shattered, the fireballs rolled, the flames surged, and thick smoke rose. Although the fireballs were not as lethal as the boulders, the panic caused by the fire hit Cao Jun's morale again and again. Seeing the fireballs roaring from the sky, Cao Jun's soldiers shouted, fled everywhere with their heads in their arms, and rushed into chaos.

The Han army camps on the hillside are conspicuous and difficult to attack. Only the camps located a mile long on the flat ground are slightly easier to attack. This has also become the main attack point of Cao's army. Entering the Han army camp and burning food and grass. This is the task of Xu Huang's army.

At this time, the attack in front of the camp had reached a height of heat. Countless ladders were placed on the two-meter-high board wall. Tens of thousands of Cao troops were climbing on the board wall and fighting fiercely with thousands of Han troops. The swords were slashing, spears were splattering, and blood was splattering. Soldiers kept screaming and falling down from the camp. It was no longer clear whether it was Cao or Han troops.

Below the inner side of the wall, more than 2,000 Han crossbowmen fired arrows outward from the arrow hole. The dense crossbow arrows kept shooting over the Cao army soldiers who were rushing towards the wood. The bodies of Cao army outside the wall were piled up to a foot high, almost blocking the arrow hole.

At this time, a group of Cao troops rushed up with a rushing wooden. With a huge muffled sound, the wall swayed violently, followed by a second violent impact. One corner of the wall was finally knocked to collapse, forming a gap of two feet wide. Zhang He, who was commanding the battle, was overjoyed and shouted: "Run into the camp, the first person to enter the camp will be rewarded with five taels."

Under the heavy reward, Cao's army waved their swords and rushed towards the gap frantically. At this time, more than a Han army soldier rushed up under Lei Tong's leadership and blocked the gap with his body.

Lei Tong was half crazy, swinging a big axe and slashing it randomly, killing Cao's army with flesh and blood, killing dozens of people in a row, resisting the first wave of crazy attacks by Cao's army. The two sides started a bloody battle in front of the gap.

Zhang Ren was very calm. There were 16,000 people in his military camp. As long as he was in command properly, he could rely on the strong camp to resist the crazy attack of the enemy. Although there were 50,000 people, which was twice as good as his own, his combat effectiveness was not as good as his own soldiers.

At this time, he saw that the bow and arrow had lost its function, so he turned around and ordered: "The catapult used a huge rock to smash the enemy within two steps."

The Han army's catapult can adjust the firing distance, with a distance of four steps, and recently it can shoot in. Two thousand soldiers quickly adjusted the firing distance and replaced them with pounds of huge rocks. Soon, twenty huge rocks were suddenly shot out, rolling in the air, crossing the heads of the defensive defenders, and smashing towards the enemy group within two steps outside the camp.

This is the most densely populated place of the enemy. Tens of thousands of Cao army soldiers held shields to resist arrows, but they could not stop the huge rocks that were smashed in the air. As the huge rocks were smashed into the air, Cao army soldiers were broken and broken, and the flesh was blurred. The huge rocks rolled over and overcame pieces of Cao army.

The Cao army soldiers outside the camp were in chaos. They turned around and fled, retreating like a tide. Without subsequent support, the Cao army attacking in the camp was difficult to continue. Many soldiers jumped off the wall and fled back.

Zhang He shouted loudly, but he could not stop the soldiers from retreating. Seeing that the enemy's catapulted plane had a fierce attack and indeed had great lethality, he had to turn his horse's head back and find Xu Huang.

"Gongming, the enemy's throwing stones sharply made us lose all our efforts."
