Chapter 497: Temple Mountain on a Rainy Night (Part II)

"Yuan Hei, you take a few sergeants to the Xuzhou army to keep an eye on it, I always feel a little unsure." Xiahoudun called Han Hao and said.

"No!"

Xiahoudun watched Han Hao leave, and then entered the temple to find Cao Song, who was holding Jia's family, drinking warm wine, and listening to a few maids playing music.

Cao Song really enjoys it, no wonder the first emperor likes him so much.

"Taigong, it's late tonight, it's better to rest early, and you have to get up early tomorrow to hurry."

Cao Song waved his hand disappreciably and said, "Since Tao Qian only sent people to give gifts, he is not guarded against my son, so there is no need to get up early tomorrow, hurry slowly, and relax Tao Qian's heart." ”

"Ah~~" A miserable scream made Xiahoudun turn around violently and roared, "What's going on outside?" ”

Jia Shi threw himself into Cao Song's arms in fright, and his huge body almost sent Cao Song away like this.

"Ahem.. Yuan Rang, what's going on? ”

Xiahoudun listened attentively for a while, and with the sound of wind and rain, Jin Ge faintly shouted to kill, and secretly said that it was not good, and he pulled out his war knife and said to Cao Song, "The thief army has changed!" Taigong quickly hid in the inner hall. ”

After speaking, Xiahoudun instructed the sergeants guarding to protect this place and not to leave, and he strode out of the hall and came outside, at this time the night was dark and the wind was high, and the rain was pouring down, except for the lights in the hall, nothing could be seen clearly outside.

"The enemy is dark and I am bright..."Xiahoudun was anxious, and said to the sergeant on the side, "Blow the horn and let everyone gather here to fight the enemy!" ”

In night battles, what I am most afraid of is self-chaos.

The mournful trumpet sounded, and the sergeants scattered all over the periphery of the temple rushed to the temple to gather when they heard the trumpet, and Han Hao also retreated here with a few sergeants.

"As soon as the Xuzhou army sees our army, they shoot arrows!" After Han Hao finished speaking, he broke the arrow shot on his battle armor, "Fortunately, it's raining, and their bows and crossbows are weak, otherwise my life would have been broken there." ”

"Close the gate tightly, use the temple as a camp, stick to it and wait for help, and the reinforcements from Qingzhou will arrive tomorrow." Xiahoudun gritted his teeth and said, took a bow and arrows and hid in a gap in the front hall, and then asked people to extinguish all the candles in the house, and secretly waited for the thieves outside to attack.

The wind and rain gradually slowed down, and in the dark temple, everyone didn't dare to breathe loudly, only hoping that the sky would light up soon, and the reinforcements from Qingzhou could arrive soon.

Suddenly, a lightning bolt lit up, and with the light of heaven and earth, Xiahoudun clearly saw that the Xuzhou army outside had surrounded the temple and was preparing to attack, and Zhang Min also saw Xiahoudun's face.

"Kill!!"

"Shoot the arrows!"

The tragic battle began, on one side were the outlaws who were fascinated by money, and on the other hand, there were Yanzhou Ruishi who fought against the water, there was no temptation on both sides, and as soon as they made a move, they greeted them to death.

The sound of shouting and killing, the sound of Jin Ge colliding, the sound of insults, and screams resounded on the temple mountain in the night rain.

Han Hao guarded the gate, Xiahou Dun walked away with a big bow to help, the Cao clan and the family also picked up weapons to fight for survival, and Cao Song held the Jia clan and the women and children trembling in the hall.

"Master, are we going to die? Woo woo, the slave family will have to serve the master in the next life~"

Cao Song listened to Jia's words, looked at the crying children and female dependents on the side, and suddenly shouted, "The old man was also a captain back then, how could he die here?" Yuan Rang, pass the order, as long as you can kill and defeat the thief army, everyone, reward 10,000 dollars! is dead, I, Cao Song, raise his whole family! ”

Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men, with Cao Song's promise, the morale of the sergeants brought by Xiahoudun suddenly soared, but such chicken blood can only be excited for a while, when Zhang Min's cavalry held spears and shields, formed a military formation and broke through the main gate of the temple, Xiahoudun's morale immediately fell back to the freezing point.

"Zhang Min! If you do this, aren't you afraid of Yanzhou's retaliation? Han Hao saw Zhang Min directing the battle not far away, and shouted while fighting.

"Revenge? I have taken your heads and your money, and there are more places in the world where we are welcomed, and I will kill !! ”

The wind and rain gradually stopped, Zhang Min asked people to start torches, and under the light of the fire, the situation that the two sides were a little timid because of the dark scuffle suddenly disappeared, but this also doubled the pressure on the Xiahou Department who was downwind.

Looking at the sergeants who kept falling, Xiahoudun secretly complained bitterly, and shouted to Han Hao, "Return to the defense hall!" ”

Han Hao took the sergeants to retreat while fighting, and Zhang Min saw that the front hall had been captured, and said with great joy, "Quick!" Kill them all, we have divided the money, and everyone is a scholar master! ”

Han Hao almost wanted to laugh when he heard this, if he was rich, he wanted to be a warrior, what kind of dream did he have.

The main hall has become the last line of defense for Xiahoudun and others, they are guarding the palace, and Zhang Minjun outside the hall is shooting arrows into the hall, and the loss continues to fly in through the windows, and the situation is critical.

"It's urgent! General, please take Taigong to break through! Han Hao shouted to Xiahoudun, Xiahoudun glanced back at Cao Song, and understood that this was the only way, so he ran to Cao Song and said, "Taigong, come to my back, I will escort you and rush out!" ”

"That's... Children, and what about them? Cao Song looked at the Jia family in his arms and the crying children, and his heart was full of fear.

"Please give it up!"

Jia Shi wiped his tears, let go of Cao Song's hand, knelt on the ground and prayed, "The slave family is a peasant girl, she was favored by the master, and she was able to enjoy the wealth that she didn't dare to think of in this life, and please ask the master to put himself first, and the slave family will repay the lord's kindness in the next life!" ”

Xiahoudun looked at this pair who were reluctant to give up, and his mouth was about to bubble up.

Can't you learn from Liu Bang, what wife and children say to lose it? Isn't that a delay!

"Bang!"

"Ahh

Xiahoudun heard a loud noise, looked back, and saw that the door of the main hall, which had been in disrepair for a long time, was slammed open by Zhang Minjun, and the tide of Zhang Minjun killed him.

"Damn it!" Xiahoudun scolded, waved his gun to meet it, and did not kill this wave of enemies, let alone break through, and wait for the whole army to be annihilated.

The soldiers of the Cao family and Xiahoudun all knew that at the last moment, in this hall, they had no way to run, but to fight desperately, blood and rain were mixed together, and the hall was like a hell of Yama.

The sky gradually brightened, even if there were no torches, everyone could see the situation on the other side clearly, at this time, Xiahoudun was covered in blood, panting, his spear had already been broken, and the arrows had been shot out, he held two war knives in his hands, and Han Hao and more than 20 other people snuggled up to each other, forming a circle.

In their circle, it was Cao Song, Jia and other family members, and the rest of the sergeants and family members were already lying in a pool of blood.

Surrounding them, Zhang Min and hundreds of other elite light horsemen armed with sharp blades and bows and crossbows, although these light horsemen did not have war horses, but they were not Xiahoudun but many people could defeat.
