Chapter 525: Sending Back

~9 min read 1,730 words

Bai Lang also saw what Cai Wenji looked like. Although she was known to later generations as a talented woman, her scholarly temperament was also very good, but her appearance was just average. She was not very tall, and Bai Lang just looked at it. Cai Yong's hometown was not far. After leaving Chang'an city, passing Tongguan and Hangu Pass, and not far after passing Luoyang, he arrived in Chenliu. When Bai Lang escorted their carriage to Tongguan, the cavalry who came from behind also sent news.

This time Bai Lang only had eight cavalry guards, he ordered two cavalry to scout ahead, two cavalry to guard dozens of miles behind, and brought four cavalry around the carriage. Cai's family had dozens of people, mainly maids and servants, and the real Cai family was only two. Bai Lang had sold most of the horses he brought in Chang'an, exchanged for enough carriages and boats, and the boats sent books while the carriages were for people and horse feed and food.

The carriage was slow and could not walk on mountain roads, so it took ten days to reach Tongguan. The news sent by the guard cavalry chasing from behind was, "There are a large number of chaotic troops coming! I'm afraid there is a change in Chang'an." Bai Lang naturally knew that this was Wenhe chaos. Wang Yun was stubborn and kicked the Han family's luck, which had finally breathed a sigh of relief, into the abyss. Since then, the Han family's luck has gone more than half, leaving a little residue of the Imperial Uncle in Xishu.

"You guys watch the carriage, speed up, it's best to enter Tongguan. I'll go and see and come back." Bai Lang put on his armor, picked up the Cloud Water Spear and left.

Bai Lang walked for more than ten miles and met the second guard cavalry on the road, and he also saw the smoke and dust in the distance. Bai Lang spurred his horse to go, but what he saw was the flag of the Xiliang army. "Chang'an hasn't broken the city yet?" Bai Lang thought about it, it seems that it is true. The Xiliang army wanted to break Chang'an, but it was not that fast. This batch was undoubtedly the soldiers they sent to cut off the Tongguan road. Bai Lang rode his warhorse and ran in small steps, and after walking for a few miles, he stopped his horse in the road.

Bai Lang held his long spear in front of him, and Snowflake Green also stood still with a nose breath. Gradually, a standard army rushed out of the smoke and dust. The flags were all marked with a "Li" character. These people saw Bai Lang alone here, and also roared and rushed over. "Haven't seen me?" Bai Lang laughed, and also spurred his horse to charge. The long spear was like a rain point, and one stab was one person falling off the horse. Sometimes even man and horse were pierced, and Bai Lang's strength shook, and the place where it was pierced shattered, and Bai Lang easily took back the long spear.

Bai Lang exploded his Qi, he wanted to speed up the killing. Bai Lang and his horse turned into a huge white tiger, and the tiger claws and tiger teeth were Bai Lang's long spear, stabbing and slashing directly at Lu Bu. And Wenhou exploded his fighting spirit, and his whole person became a red-black ghost and god. The two arms of this ghost and god were the halberd blades of his painted halberd, colliding head-on with the white tiger of the gun blade.

Lu Bu's two long pheasant tails were also accompanied by thunder, as if they were horns, and his whole person was shrouded in a ghost and god with green face and fangs, and even the Red Rabbit horse under his crotch became a strange dragon horse with ferocious horns. Bai Lang had nothing but a white tiger shell outside, and the warhorse under his crotch had no changes. After fighting with Lu Bu for more than ten rounds, seeing that CaoCao had retreated, Bai Lang also wanted to leave. "Why can't I leave! If I run away like this, Lu Bu's Red Rabbit horse will catch up and kill CaoCao. Today is in vain."

However, although CaoCao retreated, Guo Fan, Li Jue, and Xu Rong's main army suddenly killed out from the side, and even the Xiahou brothers couldn't stop it. Cao's army was defeated and collapsed backward. Next, the Xiliang army took the opportunity to cover and kill. It is estimated that CaoCao will be miserable. It is good if a few hundred of his ten thousand troops can run back. Bai Lang also had his own problems, that is, he was dragged by Lu Bu, and Lu Bu couldn't chase CaoCao, but Bai Lang couldn't get away either.

The two sides fought for dozens of rounds. Bai Lang had been surrounded by Lu Bu's army. He had to jump from the horse. The next moment, the warhorse under his crotch let out a sad cry and hung up—without the protection of his fighting spirit, the horse was directly smashed. After Bai Lang's feet stepped on the ground, the tiger landed and gave birth to strength, and the momentum of that strength directly rose by three points. The footsteps were much more flexible than the warhorse, and the strength could be borrowed from the earth. Bai Lang's figure was more than twice as sharp as he moved.

Now the Cloud Water Spear in his hand had truly become a terrible fierce weapon with tiger teeth and tiger claws. It was really blood flying when swept, divided into two when split, and the thrust was like a blizzard. This made even Lu Bu a little busy—he sat on the Red Rabbit horse and looked down, but it was difficult for him to deal with Bai Lang who was half a head shorter. Bai Lang changed his position constantly like the wind, and the four-legged Red Rabbit horse couldn't turn that fast.

Lu Bu also had to protect his beloved horse, so he was faked by Bai Lang and directly exited the battle circle. Bai Lang's speed of killing those cavalry and infantry was extremely fast. Under the swing of the long spear, there were corpses one after another. He rescued the ten cavalrymen who followed him and ordered them to go first and he stayed behind to cover. And Lu Bu was also in a dilemma at this time—should he surround Bai Lang and finally capture or kill him, or should he chase the defeated CaoCao and bring his head to Prime Minister Dong?

In the end, Lu Bu just gave up on Bai Lang and chased in the direction where CaoCao retreated. Bai Lang's bravery made Lu Bu feel shocked—it should be that Lu Bu also wanted to preserve his strength. If the Bingzhou cavalry were determined to keep Bai Lang, I'm afraid not many people would survive except Lu Bu. Bai Lang led his subordinates around the battlefield, and after crossing the river, he finally found CaoCao. Cao's six generals led more than a hundred people to guard CaoCao. When Bai Lang also arrived, CaoCao and his subordinates were visibly relieved. "Finally..." CaoCao said, and then sighed dejectedly—but didn't cry.

After returning from a big defeat, Bai Lang parted ways with CaoCao and prepared to return to his camp. CaoCao held Bai Lang's hand and sighed, "It's unbearable!" After speaking, he could only go back to lick his wounds—this time CaoCao almost lost all his main army, and even the defeated soldiers he gathered one after another hadn't reached five hundred yet. He himself was shot in the shoulder by an arrow, and the six generals under his command were all injured. Bai Lang lost his warhorse, and the armor on his body was in tatters and scattered, but fortunately he was not injured, but several of his subordinates seemed to be unable to be saved—the injuries were quite serious, and when the Qi relaxed after returning to the camp, they were afraid they would not survive.

The next day, people reported that CaoCao chased Dong Zhuo, fought at Xingyang, and returned in a big defeat. Shao ordered people to pick him up to the camp, gathered the crowd to drink, and relieved Cao. During the banquet, Cao sighed: "I started the great righteousness to eliminate thieves for the country. Since you all came with righteousness, my original intention was to bother Benchu to lead the Henei crowd, face Mengjin, Suanzao; the generals firmly guard Chenggao, occupy Aocang, block Huanyuan, Taigu; control its dangerous points; Gonglu leads the Nanyang army, station in Dan, Xi, enter Wuguan, to shake the three auxiliary areas. All dig deep and build high walls, do not fight, and be a suspicious army to show the situation of the world. By punishing the rebellious with the obedient, it can be established. Now hesitate and not advance, greatly losing the expectations of the world. I am ashamed of it!" Shao and others had nothing to say.

Bai Lang was also present, and seeing these people looking left and right, he also sighed a few times. After the banquet, Cao saw that Shao and others had different hearts, and expected that they could not succeed, so he led his army to Yangzhou. Gongsun Zan said to Xuande, Guan, and Zhang: "Yuan Shao is incompetent, and there will be changes in the long run. Let's go back." So he pulled the camp and went north. When he arrived in Pingyuan, he ordered Xuande to be the Pingyuan Administrator, and went to guard the land and raise

Bai Lang now occupied one commandery of Xihe and half of Taiyuan, and Wuyuan Commandery was actually within his sphere of influence as well. The Xiongnu who had originally raided Wuyuan had all retreated, fearing they would be slaughtered by Bai Lang. With this battle record, the imperial court, occupied by those two fellows from the Xiliang army, took the initiative to promote Bai Lang to Governor of Bingzhou, General Who Pacifies the North, and Marquis of Fan. "You say Yuan Shao sent someone to see me?" Bai Lang heard his servant say this when he returned to Lishi.
