    Soon, Liu Ke received a letter from Zhao Yun.

    The letter explained their current situation, which was not very good, but not very bad either.

    After losing most of the men, Xiwu was finally defended.

    Then, Liu Ke must stand up and harvest this wealth.  Otherwise, all these sacrifices would be in vain.

    The day of decisive battle is coming soon.

    According to Liu Ke¡¯s arrangement, Huang Zhong led 10,000 Yangzhou troops as the vanguard, followed by Cao Cao¡¯s 100,000 troops.

    The remaining 40,000 Yangzhou troops serve as a reserve force to observe the battlefield situation at any time.

    Liu Ke has a strong ability to grasp the situation of the battle, so he is responsible for holding down the battle.

    Therefore, the early resistance work fell on Cao Cao.

    "My lord, why do you need to let these 10,000 Yangzhou troops be an eyesore here? Can the Marquis of Dongyang not trust us?" Yu Jin said dissatisfied.

    According to what he means, it doesn¡¯t matter if he takes the lead.

    These ten thousand people seemed to be a mockery of Cao Cao's army, for fear that they would suddenly be unable to resist.

    "The Marquis of Dongyang did this to calm our minds. What if we fight with Dong Zhuo and he runs away?" Cao Hong said.

    Liu Ke would never give up the lives of soldiers. He put these ten thousand people at the front in order to prove his determination to win.

    "If we win this battle, Cao Cao will be able to stabilize and develop, so this battle is for us, not Dongyang Hou!" Cao Cao first stated this.

    Sizhou¡¯s temptation is still great.

    It is a pity that Xiahou Dun is not here this time, otherwise Cao Cao would be more sure.  Those 20,000 new troops are really useful.

    Cao Cao did not continue chatting and directly arranged tasks for each department.

    Xia Houyuan was in charge of the left wing and commanded an army of 30,000 men, while Yu Jin was in charge of the right wing and commanded an army of 30,000 men.  Cao Ren's defensive ability was the most outstanding, and he commanded 30,000 troops to cooperate with Huang Zhong.

    As for the remaining 10,000 troops, they were handed over to Commander Cao Hong, who was responsible for protecting the formation, that is, Cao Cao himself.

    When Cao Cao saw the momentum of Dong Zhuo's army formation, he couldn't help but feel numb.

    There are too many people, covering the mountains and plains, stretching for dozens of miles.

    In a normal field battle, with such a huge disparity in military strength, it would be impossible to win.

    But the Yangzhou Army is full of variables. They are too strong and have no limits.

    "Lord, it looks like the battle will begin in less than half an hour." Guo Jiadao.

    "I understand, have you found Dong Zhuo's location?" Liu Kedao said.

    "My lord, there are three places on Dong Zhuo's carriage. It seems that he is trying to spread suspicion." Guo Jiadao.

    "Is there no way to be sure?" Liu Ke said disappointedly. Guo Jia did not continue, so there must be no way to judge directly.

    Sure enough, Guo Jia nodded.

    Dong Zhuo knew how powerful the Yangzhou army was, so he deliberately arranged his positions.

    Coincidentally, Liu Ke planned to use beheading as a breakthrough point.

    As long as Dong Zhuo is killed in public, victory or defeat will become easy.

    "What's so rare about this? Hua Xiong, my lord, and I are all in one place, and we can kill each other directly. Who can stop us?" Lu Bu said, very confident in his own power.

    But in this case, the troops will be dispersed, and no one can guarantee the absolute completion of the mission.

    "What if Dong Zhuo is not in these three places?" Guo Jia asked, immediately rendering Lu Bu speechless.

    This situation is the worst.

    "So, it depends on General Hua Xiong." Guo Jiadao.

    Liu Ke also thinks so. Hua Xiong is a trump card that can expose Dong Zhuo.

    Suddenly, drums from both sides were loudly beating.

    "The front army has begun fighting!" Lu Bu said excitedly.

    From their current position, they can't see anything.

    So Liu Ke and his team climbed onto the high platform and were able to intuitively control the overall situation.

    Cao Cao's plan is obvious, which is to resist the pressure on both wings, hold on in the middle, and maintain the formation.

    This is the best way to deal with it when there are few troops.

    It is absolutely impossible to launch a full-scale attack before the formation is broken.

    The archers on both sides fired wildly, covering the entire battlefield.

    Liu Keyao looked at the scene in front of him, and his heart was extremely shocked.

    Even if he is in the rain of arrows, he still needs to cool down without a shield.

    Huang Zhong is a master of bow and arrow, how toHe was very experienced in resisting the enemy's arrow rain, and coupled with the strong Yangzhou armor, basically not many people fell.

    Cao Cao's army was in disastrous condition, almost swapping with Dong Zhuo's army.

    In order to reduce the losses of Cao Cao's army, Huang Zhong decisively led his army to charge, instantly disrupting Dong Min's archer formation.

    Dong Min, the younger brother of Dong Zhuo, was responsible for the central attack of Dong Zhuo's army. He reacted a step too slowly, causing the archers to face the Yangzhou army and were killed by surprise.

    Upon seeing this, Cao Ren immediately ordered the archers to come forward and continue shooting, avoiding the melee area in front and shooting towards the rear of the enemy formation.

    After this round of cooperation, Dong Zhuojun's follow-up troops could not keep up and were partially eaten by Huang Zhong.

    Huang Zhong won the victory. He was neither arrogant nor impatient. He ordered his troops to retreat and continue to form their formation.

    ¡°The Yangzhou Army is probably the only one who can order and prohibit and command freely.

    In this case, if it were Cao Cao's army, it is very likely that he would have become red-eyed and directly attack Dong Zhuo with a rhythm.

    Sadly, Dong Min acted a step slower, allowing the Yangzhou Army to breathe.

    It wasn¡¯t that he was slow, but that the Yangzhou Army moved too quickly and Dong Min couldn¡¯t grasp the rhythm.

    However, for the melee involving hundreds of thousands of people, this is just a small battlefield.

    Among them, Xia Houyuan felt the most aggrieved. He had to face the Flying Bear Army led by Li Jue.

    Those shameless cavalry and shooting made him miserable.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? It¡¯ll rush up to you and give you a round of bows and arrows, then turn to the side, and give you another wave of bows and arrows, and then turn around and go back, and the cycle starts over and over again.

    Three thousand people were lost in one fell swoop.

    Xia Houyuan had no choice at all, and the initiative in the battle was entirely in Li Jue's hands.

    Yu Jin on the right wing was not much better. Guo Bang was like crazy, constantly attacking the formation and compressing their living space.

    There were shouts of killing.

    There were many times when Yu Jin personally took action to block the gap, but he felt that if this continued, he wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

    Dongyang Hou only has 40,000 reserve troops, what can he do to turn the tide?

    After the battle started, there was very little Cao Cao could do.

    But the drumbeat in the middle never stops, and this is the only encouragement he can do.

    There are 10,000 Yangzhou troops resisting in the middle. The situation is a little better. It is only time for the left and right wings to collapse.

    Dong Zhuo's army rushed forward continuously, taking advantage of their own strength.

    "The frame on the right is the most suspicious." Guo Jia made his own judgment, "It's either Dong Zhuo or Li Ru."

    Because there are many messengers coming in and out from there, it is very conspicuous, and it is clearly the command system of Dong Zhuojun.

    As for whether it was Dong Zhuo or Li Ru, Guo Jia couldn't decide.

    There is no value in attacking Li Ru. Only by catching or killing Dong Zhuo is the real victory.

    "Wait a minute!" Liu Kedao said, he was not in a hurry to make a judgment, after all, Hua Xiong hadn't played yet.

    The fighting was still going on, and Liu Ke watched with cold eyes.

    The battle between 250,000 Dong Zhuo's army and 150,000 Liu Ke and Cao Cao's coalition forces dyed the entire battlefield blood red.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
