"General Xiahou, are you alright?" The one who came to Xiahou Yuan's rescue was none other than Wei Yan.
The Red Coat Camp was Wei Yan's only support in Cao Cao's camp. As long as the Red Coat Camp was there, he would be able to steadily maintain his position. Even Cao Cao would have to greet him with a smile.
Therefore, Wei Yan accompanied Xiahou Yuan to the battle.
"I'm fine!" Xiahou Yuan shook his head. Although he didn't like Wei Yan, this time, Wei Yan had saved his Godly Corps. Otherwise, the Godly Corps would've been annihilated by the Bing Province Wolf Cavalry. There would've been no other choice.
"This Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry is really the world's number one cavalry!" Wei Yan couldn't help but sigh. In the past, the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry was an ally so he couldn't experience the terror of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry. But now, it was different. Wei Yan had to face the world's number one cavalry.
"Humph! The world's number one cavalry? The world's number one cavalry is our Ferocious Cavalry! " A discordant voice was heard as a burly and stocky general walked in. "General Wei, are you afraid?"
His tone was full of mockery.
Wei Yan immediately became angry. He turned around and saw that it was the general of the Ferocious Cavalry.
"Ba 'er, don't be rude!" Xiahou Yuan immediately stopped Xiahou Ba. Xiahou Ba could be considered as the second generation of Cao Jun's army.
Cao Cao let Xiahou Ba Tong command the Ferocious Cavalry's two battalions.
Xiahou Ba could be considered as an acquaintance of Liu Mang. In Xiapi, if it wasn't for him, Liu Mang and others wouldn't have been able to escape from the army.
Therefore, Xiahou Ba had always regarded defeating Liu Mang as his goal. Although he was very unhappy with Liu Mang, Xiahou Yuan disdained this kind of despicable person who betrayed his master.
"Humph!" Xiahou Ba disdainfully snorted.
Wei Yan's eyes narrowed. His stomach was filled with anger. He, Wei Yan, is now the rear general of Cao army. Yet, he was looked down upon by a mere lieutenant. If this person wasn't Xiahou Yuan's son, perhaps Wei Yan would have already attacked him.
"General Wei Yan, please forgive my son for being rude!" Xiahou Yuan comforted Wei Yan.
Wei Yan could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger. With an awkward expression, he told Xiahou Yuan that it was fine.
The entire atmosphere had changed.
"Reporting, General, General Lu Zhao's corpse has been collected!" A messenger came in and broke the awkward atmosphere.
"Have you put it away?" When Xiahou Yuan heard this news, his face immediately darkened. "Find a good coffin and keep it well. Bring me to the King of Wei and request that he be buried with the title of Marquis!"
"General Lu Zhao is dead?" Wei Yan was also surprised by this news. He also knew this Lu Zhao. His eyes were spirited, his forehead was full, and his temples were bulging. He should be at some stage. It should be very easy for such a person to stay alive in the chaos of the army.
"Yes, he is dead!" Xiahou Yuan was in a very bad mood. Lu Zhao had been with him for many years. They had been through fire and water together. They could be considered as old brothers. They had fought many battles in the past. Lu Zhao had always survived. However, he did not expect that he would die in this battle that they were sure to win.
"Lü Bu is here?" Wei Yan guessed. Only Lü Bu could kill Lu Zhao.
Xiahou Yuan shook his head and gave an answer that made Wei Yan dumbfounded. "It's Liu Mang!"
"Plop!" Wei Yan's hand did not hold the helmet and directly fell to the ground. "General Xiahou, what did you say?"
"What? Is there something wrong with your ears? Rear General, my father said Liu Mang, the King of Han, Liu Mang, Hanyang! " Xiahou Ba was also surprised, but more than that, he was excited. What he wanted was to defeat Liu Mang.
Wei Yan did not care about Xiahou Ba's ridicule. His mind was now completely occupied by these two words. "Liu Mang!" For Wei Yan, what did Liu Mang represent? That was a kind of deep fear.
He knelt in front of Liu Mang for two days. Huainan was rainy, so he did not eat or drink for two days. Only then did Liu Mang accept him. Later, Liu Mang threw him into the City Guard and made him a small soldier.
Back then, when Liu Mang revealed his killing intent, he did not hide it at all.
Therefore, Wei Yan was afraid. He was afraid that Liu Mang knew that he had a relationship with Cao Jun. He was even more afraid that he would not be able to use his strength under Liu Mang's command, so he rebelled.
Now, when he heard Liu Mang's name, Wei Yan could not help but shudder.
"How can Liu Mang appear here?" Wei Yan was a little flustered. He was afraid that Liu Mang came for him, especially Liu Mang who killed Lu Zhao.
"You are afraid of Liu Mang?" Xiahou Ba said contemptuously.
"What do you know!" Wei Yan shouted at Xiahou Ba for the first time.
"I!" Xiahou Ba was about to fight back, but he was stopped by Xiahou Yuan. Looking at Wei Yan's expression, he knew that Wei Yan was not in a good mood at this time.
"General Wei Yan, Liu Mang is already a thing of the past. Why do you care about him?" Xiahou Yuan had already sent out scouts. Within a radius of dozens of miles, except for the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, there were no other reinforcements. This showed that Liu Mang came here in a hurry. The Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry could only fight evenly with the Divine March and the Ferocious Cavalry. But don't forget that they still had a battalion of cannons.
"Yes, we have the Red Coat Battalion. We have the cannons!" Wei Yan's eyes lit up.
"As long as we take down Cheng De, then Shouchun will be just around the corner. Yangzhou will fall into the hands of His Majesty. This Liu Mang is nothing. Perhaps, Liu Mang will be killed by the cannons in this battle. "Xiahou Yuan comforted Wei Yan.
"Liu Mang, Liu Hanyang, you created the cannons and set up the Red Coat Battalion. This time, let me use the Red Coat Battalion to send you to hell." Wei Yan's eyes also flashed. His deep fear toward Liu Mang has turned into a kind of deep hatred.
On the other side, in the Pengzhou Army.
"What, His Majesty, you want to enter Cheng De City?" Zhang Liao heard Liu Mang's decision and immediately objected.
"No!" Cao Cao's Army seemed to be determined to take down Cheng De City.
Even the Red Coat Camp was brought out. Zhang Liao knew the power of the Red Coat Camp's cannons. In the wild, the cannons might not be able to aim accurately. However, in Cheng De City, they would be able to hit the cannons.
"It's okay." Liu Mang comforted Zhang Liao. Cheng De City was the industrial base of Yangzhou. There were many things that Liu Mang could not lose. Therefore, he had to enter the city. If Cheng De City could not be defended, Liu Mang could take away some important things.
"If I don't go to Cheng De City, how can I destroy the Red Coat Battalion?" Liu Mang entered the city as a bait. His purpose was to let Wei Yan bring the cannons to attack the city. At that time, Liu Mang was confident that he could destroy the Red Coat Battalion in one fell swoop.
"I will hand over the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to General Zhang Liao." Liu Mang handed over the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to Zhang Liao. Zhang Liao was the commander-in-chief of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry.
"Rest assured, Your Majesty. I will not disappoint Your Majesty!" Zhang Liao was prepared. If Liu Mang was in danger, he would sacrifice the entire Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to bring Liu Mang away safely.
"Alright, Zhang De. Follow me into the city." Liu Mang immediately rode towards Cheng De City.
After entering the city, Liu Ye was still in Cheng De City. It was no wonder. Cheng De's industrial base was Liu Ye's blood, sweat, and tears. How could Liu Ye leave so easily.
"My Lord, why are you here?" Liu Ye was stunned for a moment.
"Why? You can be here, but I, Liu Hanyang, can't?" Liu Mang joked.
"No, no. My Lord, you should know that Cao Cao's troops are already outside the city." Liu Mang was worried about Liu Mang.
"I know." Liu Mang nodded and told Liu Ye the whereabouts of the Red Coat Battalion.
"Sigh!" Liu Ye sighed. He originally thought that with the cannons, the Yangzhou Army would be invincible. However, he did not expect that there would be a traitor from Wei Yan.
"My Lord, you should leave first. Leave the city to me. I will not let Cao Cao get a single cannon!" Liu Ye was not stupid. He knew that Cao Cao had sent his troops to Cheng De City because of the hundreds of cannons that were already built in Cheng De City.
"Haha! Ziyang, you're wrong. This time, not only will I not let Cao Cao have any of the cannons, I will also completely annihilate the Red Coat Army! "Whether it was the ancient times or the modern times, there was one thing that everyone hated the most, and that was traitors.
"My Lord, you brought reinforcements?"
Liu Mang shook his head. "It is better to use cannons to deal with the Red Coat Battalion's cannons."
"But there are not enough cannoneers in the city." Liu Ye said. There were only a few people in the city who could use cannoneers. It was too late to transfer cannoneers from Shouchun.
"There are no cannoneers on land, but that does not mean there are none in the water." Liu Mang said with a smile.
… …
"Cheng De City is just ahead. These cannons are produced here." Xiahou Yuan's army arrived at Cheng De City very quickly. Xiahou Yuan looked at Cheng De City and said.
He knew from Wei Yan that the cannons were built by Liu Ye. Xiahou Yuan could not help but sigh.
As long as we take down Cheng De, all the cannons in Cheng De City will belong to His Majesty. "Xiahou Ba said proudly.
"Yes." Xiahou Yuan nodded his head. "General Wei Yan, taking down Cheng De City will depend on General Wei Yan."
"Don't worry, General Xiahou." Wei Yan patted his chest. Cheng De City was Yangzhou's industrial area. It was also Yangzhou's lifeline. If they took down Cheng De City, the Yangzhou Army would not be able to do anything.
"As long as General Wei Yan takes down Cheng De City, I believe that His Majesty will not be stingy with his title." Xiahou Yuan promised Wei Yan.
"Father, look over there." Xiahou Ba pointed in a direction. It turned out that there was a commander's flag hanging on the city wall.
"Liu Mang has entered the city?" Everyone had the same thought.
"Haha, God is helping me." Wei Yan laughed. Cheng De City was about to become an isolated city. If Liu Mang led the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry outside the city, it would be fine. The cavalry's mobility made it impossible for the cannons to aim at them. However, if they were in the city, they would be looking for trouble.
If they could kill Liu Mang in Cheng De City, then the entire Yangzhou would be destroyed.
"Could there be a trap?" Xiahou Yuan was the first to object. This was because it was a little abnormal. Why would Liu Mang appear in a city that was already defenseless?
As long as Xiahou Yuan's army besieged Cheng De City, Liu Mang would not be able to escape.
Moreover, the city was an immovable object. If he was not careful, he would be killed by the cannons.
Xiahou Yuan was afraid that there was a trap.
"General, Liu Mang wants to talk to you on the city wall." Xiahou Yuan and the others looked at each other and then rode their horses forward.
Liu Mang stood firmly on the city wall near Yingshang. This time, it was certain that Liu Mang was courting death.
