Chapter 312: Xiahou Yuan is defeated

Let's say that Li Zheng led more than 5,500 Ma Bu troops to follow the moonlight and go to Dangyang. But after arriving in Dangyang, it took a little time to explore the place where Xiahou Yuan's troops were stationed.

Finally, in the middle of the night, I found Xiahou Yuan's camp.

At this moment, there are about two hours left before dawn. Just right, it belongs to the deepest time of sleep.

Li Zheng simply didn't even ride a horse, so the soldiers approached Xiahou Yuan's camp lightly. A mile away from the east, there is a camp.

There are still some far away, and I can't see how many people and horses there are on the camp, but I feel that the figures are shaking, and there should be a lot of soldiers on guard.

Li Zheng didn't dare to make a move, so he summoned the battalion Sima and said: "Go down and select three Dubo, bring a large number of wood and torches, and prepare from the north, south, and east. ”

"No." The battalion Sima agreed, and hurriedly went down to choose Du Bo, these three Du Bo, with a baggage cart, went to the south, east, and north.

Of these three Dubo, one of them is called Wu He. Wu He took fifty-five soldiers and five baggage carts under his command to the southern location of Xiahou Yuan's camp, which was about a mile away.

"Plug in the wood and tie the torches." Wu He said. His soldiers sprang into action, sticking hundreds of logs from five wagons into the ground and tying torches.

This wood is not planted casually, but is widely dispersed.

After that, almost an hour or so passed. At this moment, Wu He heard the sound of killing from the West.

Hurriedly let the soldiers run and light the torches while shouting and killing.

"Kill!!!! Wu He himself quickly lit the torches, lighting them one by one, while roaring. Soon after, hundreds of torches were lit, and Wu He and others waved their flags again, pretending that the army was attacking the camp and bluffing.

Plus the north, the east, and the west, all of a sudden, embattled, and murderous voices abounded.

Xiahou Yuan camp.

On the four sides of the camp, there are many soldiers guarding and guarding, and there are definitely no less than 500 people on each wall, most of them are crossbowmen.

In the resting place of Cao Jun in the camp, the soldiers slept deeply, but they all slept in armor and shoes, and their weapons were put aside and could be picked up at any time.

Of the hundreds of thousands of people in the inner camp, some are asleep and some can't.

One of them was a Jiangling ranger named Qian Jun. This man is brave and skilled in riding and shooting. It is very famous in the Gangneung area.

Xiahou Yuan's move was sudden that day, and Qian Jun was also brought by Cao Jun, and there were some rangers who came with Qian Jun.

In private, Qian Jun gathered these rangers.

There was a conspiracy during this time.

"Xiahou Yuan burned Jiangling City and went north, this must be Cao Cao's retreat. The left general Hanshou Hou Guan Gong is in the north, Jiangxia Taishou Zhuge Kongming is in the east, Yang Wuchang Shi Maliang is in the west, and the Guan family will never rest. Xiahou Yuan burned down our homeland, and we can't rest, if there is an opportunity, it will be the opposite. ”

This is what Qian Jun once said. And the so-called rangers are brave and ruthless people, who cut their necks and liver and gallbladder down.

These people have murderous people, as well as arrogant and arrogant people, and have their own set of righteousness. And Xiahou Yuan went too far by doing this, arousing public indignation.

And Qian Jun not only came by himself, but he also put a sword, a hand crossbow, a bow, and a few arrows in the soft that accompanied him.

Because Cao Jun was in a hurry, no one even noticed it. And like Qian Jun, most of these rangers are like this.

It is impossible to restrain the rangers and prevent them from smuggling weapons.

Qian Jun was asleep, but suddenly he heard the sound of killing, and said happily: "This must be the men and horses of Han Shouhouhou, we are waiting for the opportunity to move." ”

There were many rangers on the left and right, all nodding when they heard the words, and then each drew their swords, bows, crossbows and other weapons from the softness.

And hundreds of thousands of people in Jiangling City were brought out, there were complaints, not only the rangers who wanted to resist, there were some big clans, and there was no shortage of heroes.

Hearing the sound of killing, they were on guard.

However, it is said that Li Zheng's men and horses in the east, north, and south are all suspicious soldiers, which is just a bluff, and only the west where Li Zheng is located is really attacking the city.

Li Zheng's department has more than 5,000 people, and there are 1,100 sets of fine armor, which happens to be two military waiting stations. Although Li Zheng was good at martial arts, he did not dare to confront the general of the Cao army, so as not to lose the army. Therefore, he put on his armor and ordered two soldiers to lead the ironclad army, carrying ladders to charge, while he led a few personal soldiers to supervise the formation in the rear.

As for the soldiers in leather armor, they were after the ironclad soldiers.

It is necessary to attack the Cao army camp in one go, and then deceive the camp. Otherwise, you can't compete with Cao's army.

Li Zheng led his troops to attack Cao's camp from the west, but Cao's army did not panic. Although the more than 500 Cao soldiers in the camp were extremely tired from the vigil, they were still in good spirits in an instant.

"Archers prepare." One of the soldiers in charge of the guard was extremely calm, raised his hand, and said.

"Whoosh !!!" Soon Li Zheng's ironclad soldiers rushed to the bottom of the camp, and Cao's army shot arrows, but the effect was not great.

Leather armor has a certain amount of defense, let alone iron armor, unless you are shot in the knee, or in the middle of the door, it is difficult to shoot the iron armor.

And the soldiers and horses of the Guan family are very good at running. At great speed, more than 1,000 ironclad soldiers rushed to the bottom of the camp, and then set up a ladder to climb the camp.

A soldier of Cao Jun leaned out and tried to turn over the ladder, but he didn't push it for a while, because the ironclad soldiers were very heavy.

Moreover, the thousands of soldiers under Li Zheng's command in the rear had also followed, and many archers kept shooting arrows at Cao's camp.

"Ahhh!!!hhh The night watchman basically had no iron armor, so he screamed again and again, killing and wounding many people in an instant.

The ironclad soldiers under Li Zheng's department took the opportunity to climb the camp wall, and drew the phantom beast broadsword, and started a fight against the Cao army on the camp.

But the situation was not very favorable, Cao's army was very experienced in combat, and the soldiers knew that it was extremely difficult to cut and kill the ironclad soldiers, so they used spears to push the ironclad soldiers down from the camp.

For a time, Li Zheng's ironclad army was entangled with Cao's sergeants on the camp, instead of gaining the upper hand, although soon the ironclad soldiers also occupied the camp wall, but gave Xiahou Yuan and others a chance to react.

The garrison of the camp in the west was Li Guang, who was also a fierce general of the Cao army, and when he heard the sound of shouting and killing, he ordered his soldiers to go to the camp to defend, and then put on his own armor, and when he put on his armor, he took up his big sword and walked to the camp gate. And when Li Guang reacted, Liu Zheng had already led his troops to occupy the camp wall.

Many ironclads have already stormed the camp.

The archers occupied a high position and shot the Cao soldiers in the battalion. Cao Jun was holding shields, and the ironclad soldiers were already in position, blocking the front, and the archers were hiding in the rear to counterattack.

For a while, although Li Zheng entered the camp, the two sides fought equally.

Li Zheng's department is also elite, Guan Ping has been training in Fangling since he entered Fangling, and it has been several years since he entered Fangling.

However, the combat experience is very average, not as good as Cao's sergeants, although he suddenly attacked, and was prepared to attack the opponent unprepared, but it was really not easy to win.

Cao Jun is worthy of being the elite of a hundred battles and invincible in the world.

Unless Zhang Laosan is here, there is hope to break through this capable Cao army.

"Hahaha, there are not many people on the other side, so the sons and daughters hold on for a moment. Hold your ground, and you can hold the camp. Li Guang was relieved when he saw this, and laughed.

Li Zheng stood on the camp wall, standing in the dark, and there was a shield hand to protect him, he was condescending, watching the battle, but he was also frowning.

The elite of Cao's army is far above his imagination, if he can't break through this village, he can only rely on the hundreds of thousands of Jiangling people in the camp.

If the hundreds of thousands of people can't resist, Li Zheng will have to withdraw his troops, and staying for a long time is not the best policy.

"Go and cut a gap in the camp wall as a way back." Li Zheng turned his head and said to the many swordsmen around him.

That's what these people do.

"No." The swordsmen and axemen answered the promise and immediately went down and began to destroy the walls of Cao's barracks, but it was not easy, and the camp was very strong.

But it doesn't matter, the battle won't end so soon. Li Zheng's department is also quite elite, a little inferior, but the overall strength is comparable.

Cao Jun to the south.

Xiahou Yuan also woke up when he shouted killing, hurriedly put on his armor, ordered the soldiers to get up quickly, and ordered the ironclad soldiers to quickly put on the iron armor, but when Xiahou Yuan picked up the big knife and went out of the big tent, he learned that the fire outside the camp was soaring, but it was very likely to be a bluff.

But Xiahou Yuan didn't dare to slack off, because a feint attack could also turn into a real attack.

Xiahou Yuan stood on top of the camp and listened carefully, knowing that the West's shouts of killing were true. The two sides fought, and the voices were boiling.

"Send a thousand elite soldiers to help stabilize the situation. The rest of the men did not move, beware of an attack from the south. "After all, Xiahou Yuan still sent an elite army to support.

"No." The battalion Sima responded and immediately mobilized two soldiers to support.

Xiahou Yuan is very confident in the battle situation, Cao Jun is elite, although he doesn't know who the other party is and how many people came, but there should not be many soldiers and horses in total.

Cao Jun garrisoned the camp, and there would be no loss. But Xiahou Yuan also has worries.

That's the more than 100,000 Gangneung people in the inner camp.

"The other generation (Guan Jun, Sun Jun), they really dare to chase after them." Xiahou Yuan frowned. This was unexpected by Xiahou Yuan, because the war had lasted for such a long time.

In addition to Anlu's passive defense, the Guan and Sun families have never fought the Cao army head-on, let alone stormed the Cao army's camp.

In-house. The camp where Qian Jun and the other rangers were located, the Qian Army had gathered hundreds of people and was ready to start. Although Qian Jun is not a general, he can still hear the movement, the actual fighting over there, and the bluff over there.

Qian Jun's face was extremely solemn, and he said to the rangers around him, and the motley army composed of capable people: "Listen to the voice, the West is real, and the three parties are false." The generals who attacked Cao's camp at night did not have many men. If you don't do it now, you won't have a chance. Let's do it together, there are still more than 100,000 people in the inner camp, and there must be 20,000 or 30,000 capable and strong, and there will inevitably be people who respond. ”

"No."

The ragtag army around them agreed with a bang, and then Qian Jun personally brought ropes, ordered people to set up the footing items, and climbed the camp wall.

Cao Jun is a "Hui" shaped military camp, and hundreds of thousands of Jiangling people are placed in the inner camp, but the inner camp and the outer camp are not one camp wall, but two roads.

Between the two camp walls is a marching road ten feet wide.

The four camps of the Cao army are independent individuals from the inner camp, and it is not so easy to resist.

However, the people of Gangneung City, who were forced to migrate to the north and accumulated a large amount of resentment, decided to let go.
