Chapter 703: Cai Mao's Battle Intent
Cai Zhong was scolded by Cai Mao, and said very angrily: "Big brother, you are too unconfident, let Wang Wei let him go if he wants to go, anyway, Xiahoudun is only guarding the south gate, let's go out from the north gate, find a flat place to fight with the Qingzhou soldiers, can't we turn the disadvantage into an advantage?"
"That's right, I'm confused, why didn't I think of this?" Cai Mao patted his head, and couldn't help but look at his younger brother with admiration, and then shouted at the ban, "I offended just now, but General Wang Wei, Xinye City is small, my 8,000 men and horses are already crowded, and I really can't tolerate you, in this way, you attack Shi Lian from the east, and I will personally go out to the west gate to attack Han Hao, and when the time comes, we will meet in the south of the city and attack Xiahoudun together!"
"This is like a human saying!" Yu Ban smiled slightly, and said to the deputy general beside him, "It is estimated that this Cai Mao is suspicious, I will send a thousand people to meet Shi Jian first, and the rest will be ambushed here with me, if Cai Mao wants to escape from the north gate, we must capture him alive!"
"No!"
Cai Mao was about to rectify the men and horses to break through from the second gate in the northwest, when he suddenly sent an order to report in a hurry: "General Qiyu, Xiahoudun repelled Huangzu's vanguard Chen Sheng and Zhang Hu, Huangzu did not dare to fight with Xiahoudun, and went in the direction of Anle!"
Cai Mao was shocked when he heard this: "How is it possible? Huang Zu has 20,000 horses under his command, how can he be repelled by a few thousand Qingzhou soldiers under Xiahoudun's command? This is impossible, this is not true! Huang Zu, this guy, owes his brother-in-law so much trust him, and he is so incompetent at the critical moment!"
Cai Zhong hugged his fists and said: "Big brother, Xiahoudun has already led the Qingzhou soldiers to start storming the south gate, this Xinye City is weak in defense and cannot be defended, let's go!"
Suddenly, dozens of miles to the east, white fireworks rose into the sky, illuminating a large area of the sky, so white that it was extremely dazzling and beautiful, and even the stars and moon lost their color. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
In other words, others will definitely stop and watch, and be amazed, but this white fireworks is tantamount to adding insult to injury to Cai Mao who is trapped in Xinye City!
Cai Zhong's voice trembled and said, "Big brother, the white fireworks mean that the grain and grass are burned!"
"I know!" Cai Mao also said with trembling lips, "Who is so capable to find the location of the hidden granary, and few people in our army know!"
Cai Zhong said hatefully: "What else can it be, it must be a self-thief, it is the water thief Gan Ning who guards the grain and grass, he must have burned the grain and grass in order to please Cao Cao!"
Cai Mao gritted her teeth: "Let's go! There is no hope for the trapped guard now, only to break through!"
Here at the south gate, Xiahoudun led the Qingzhou soldiers and the defenders on the city tower to launch a tug-of-war offensive and defensive battle, just now Qin Qi used up almost all the defensive forces in the city when he defended Xinye, so Cai Mao's choice to enter the city seems to have escaped, but it is actually the beginning of the nightmare.
Qin Qi said to Xiahoudun: "Cai Mao is nothing more than this, if he fights us in a decisive battle outside the city, he may still win a miserable victory, now it seems that it will not be long before he will be our prisoner!"
"Even so, you can't be careless!" Xiahoudun took a deep breath and shouted loudly, "Keep attacking!"
"No!"
The Xinye city wall is only more than two zhang high, the Qingzhou soldiers used the method of taking a ladder, and soon boarded the city wall to start hand-to-hand combat with Cai Mao's army, not long after, the defenders on the city wall have been wiped out, the Qingzhou soldiers on the city wall opened the south gate and put their own people, immediately the tide rushed to the city, Xiahou ordered the herald to inform Han Hao Shi Lian, and ordered to attack Cai Mao's men and horses together.
When he arrived in the city, he saw no trace of the Jingzhou army, only to see the three gates of the north, west and east wide open, although Han Hao Shi Lian arrived, but he only surrounded and suppressed Cai Mao's small remnants of the defeated general, and after meeting with Xiahou Xuan, he did not dare to be careless, and went directly out of the north gate and continued to pursue Cai Mao.
"Wen Ze must have fought with Cai Mao, we have to move quickly!" Immediately, Xiahoudun's face was covered with mud mixed with blood and sweat and dust, he didn't know how long he hadn't rested, he only knew that he was very excited now, very excited, he and his Qingzhou soldiers hadn't had such a hearty battle for a long time.
Xiahoudun expected it to be good, Cai Mao led the army out of the city, took the northwest road and hurried, and scolded secretly: "Why is the road near this Xinye so narrow and difficult, if anyone ambushes a group of men and horses here, won't I definitely die?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it, because the left and right sides of the front of the team suddenly drummed and gongs, and many horses suddenly appeared in the depths of the mountains and forests.
But at this time, his men and horses were already in chaos, and they all thought that the food and grass had been cut off, and even if they barely survived, they would starve to death, and they couldn't help but produce soldiers who fled.
There was a second one who escaped, so there were more and more, Cai Mao was furious and killed a few deserters around him, and was about to gather the team to break through, but Cai Mao only had time to make a sound and had already turned over and fell off the horse.
"The general is dead, let's run away!" Seeing that the main general was falling, where did Cai Mao's army still have half a sense of war, and some of those who were afraid of death actually put down their weapons and surrendered directly, Cai Zhong saw his brother fall off the horse, and immediately killed and stretched out his hand to Cai Mao: "Big brother, get on the horse quickly, let's kill a bloody road!"
Cai Mao got on the horse, saw that the injury was on the left shoulder, and was happy and surprised in her heart, and said to Cai Zhong: "Thank you second brother for saving me!"
"What are these words?" Cai Zhong held a gun in his hand, and from time to time he dropped the arrows on all sides, and he didn't look back, "You are my eldest brother, and it is the expectation of the whole family, what should we do with our Cai family if something happens to you?"
"Hehe!" Cai Mao didn't know what to say for a while, he lost the Cai family's face this time one after another, and what face did he have to be the heir of the family, thinking of this, he said miserably, "The eldest brother is incompetent, and you will suffer even the second brother, I am not worthy of being this heir, if I can't get out alive today, my position will be done by you, and our Cai family will rely on you in the future!"
"Big brother, you won't die! you are the pride of our family!" Cai Zhong's spear fluttered, and he was a little crazy, but more enemy troops were surging over, and they were almost drowning here.
"The general is not dead, the general is here!" Cai Mao's men and horses soon discovered Cai Mao and Cai Zhong, who were riding a horse not far away, and immediately became excited again, and killed them fearlessly, guarding the two of them.
Although Cai Mao's face became extremely pale due to excessive blood loss, Cai Zhong's heavy drinking and the increasing number of subordinates gathered around him made him rekindle his fighting spirit.
"Poof!" Cai Mao's eyes closed, and his right hand violently pulled out the feather arrow that had not entered his shoulder, making him grin in pain and almost fainting.
Almost just near.
In an instant, Cai Mao remembered a lot of things, remembered that his uncle Zhang Wen taught him to write when he was a child, he didn't listen, he had to play with guns and sticks, he remembered his life as a flying eagle lackey, remembered that Liu Biao insisted on testing martial arts with him when he came to propose marriage, remembered the first time he led troops to quell the rebellion in Jingzhou, and many more, all of which were either vigorous pasts or trivial things.
Is he going to die? He remembered that his uncle said that when people die, they will see what they have experienced in their lives, and now he sees them, but all these things he has experienced are so prosaic, so boring, so that people can't lift the feeling of going to death.
I haven't done anything, I haven't made a career yet, I'm not famous in the world, how can I just die!
Qin Qi's words are very right, my life is up to me, I don't want to die, who can kill me?
In an instant, all the past disappeared in an instant, and Cai Mao saw that he was still on the battlefield, on the battlefield of blood and fire, on the battlefield of shouting and killing, and there were people on the battlefield of death all the time, and the burning pain from his left shoulder reminded him that he was not dead!
I'm not dead!
Live well if you don't die!
Cai Mao looked up and looked forward, the speed of the second brother Cai Zhong's swing of the weapon had slowed down, and he was also hit by a few feather arrows in both arms, but he was still struggling to lead his incompetent brother to fight his bloody way.
An iron rider in front of him held a spear and went straight to Cai's central nest, and Cai Zhong didn't even have the strength to raise his arm to defend against attacks at this time.
"Big brother, brother is going first!" Cai Zhong said this, closed his eyes and smiled and waited for death.
With a "bang", when the spear was about to stab Cai's central nest, it was pinched by a pair of hands.
Cai Zhong opened his eyes in disbelief and looked at Cai Mao who had saved his life, and the cavalryman also looked at Cai Mao who was holding his weapon in disbelief, and he forgot what he should do next.
How precise and bold does this have to be?
At this time, on the battlefield, both the enemy and the enemy cheered together.
What a beautiful empty hand lock spear! Cai Mao's move attracted everyone's attention.
"Big brother, you?" Cai Zhong muttered to himself, not believing that all this was true, "Am I dead?"
"Of course you didn't die, I didn't die, none of us died! I didn't expect to repay your second brother so quickly for saving your life!" Even Cai Mao didn't know what was wrong with him, but he didn't hesitate, and with a slight force with one hand, he knocked the cavalryman who was still stunned off the horse, and took the opponent's weapon as his own, as well as the mount.
Although there was still a trace of blood on his left shoulder, Cai Mao felt that countless forces were being poured into his body, he stood still with a gun, and his eyes shot a fierce murderous aura: "Injury, pain, death, but so, what could be more terrible than this?"
Cai Mao shocked everyone by judging the two of them, and his men and horses gradually gathered, ready to start a desperate fight with the enemy army in front of him.
"Follow General Cai Mao, we will definitely live!"
