Chapter 265: The Battle of Mangqi Mountain (Part II)
Night.
In the camp of the Yuan army in Mangqi Mountain.
Zhang Xun was watching the news from everywhere while eating dinner absentmindedly.
For some reason, he always had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart, as if something was happening, but he couldn't think of anything wrong.
Now the situation everywhere, except for resisting the army led by Cao Cao, there is a certain crisis, and the rest is not too much of a crisis, especially Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, and Sun Ce, who have fought several skirmishes and no big wars.
It can be seen from this that Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, and Sun Ce did not do their best.
Or rather, they don't want to fight to the death at all.
One by one, I didn't see anything wrong, but I was still uneasy.
"Someone!" Zhang Xun shouted outside.
"In!" A cronie walked in from outside the tent and answered.
Zhang Xun thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any news from the report sent out?" ”
Although he couldn't hold out here and dragged down 200,000 Qin troops, he still sent many detectives to monitor the Qin army's camp to prevent any accidents from happening, and let these detectives report every once in a while.
"General Hui, the news came back not long ago, the Qin army is doing everything as usual, and now there is still a stick of incense time before the next news is transmitted!" The cronies reported truthfully.
He didn't know why Zhang Xun asked, but this was not something he was considering, he just needed to answer according to the truth.
Hear the words.
Zhang Xun also remembered that in the evening, the news sent out had already been transmitted, and it was not the stipulated time.
Probably too anxious, he waved his hand and told the cronie to withdraw.
He dragged the 200,000 Qin troops here for a few days, but his spirit was tense all the time, and the arrangements everywhere were very tight, and he was afraid that something would happen.
Obviously, if you make a mistake, you will lose everything.
Whether it was for Yuan Shu or for himself, how could he dare to be careless?
Come to think of it.
The uneasiness in his heart also disappeared a lot, shook his head, smiled bitterly, and continued to look at the news coming from everywhere, trying to find a solution to the current situation in it.
He is a general under Yuan Shu.
If Yuan Shu can gain a firm foothold, or change the situation, then he will also rise to the top, after all, there is no one who doesn't like rights, especially the rights in hand.
I don't want to lose it like that.
Little by little, time passed.
Zhang Xun didn't sleep, he was still busy, and he also took out the battle map and compared the situation everywhere.
Slowly.
Zhang Xun felt that something was wrong.
Because it has reached the time he has set for it, and there is no news from the dispatch of the visitor, according to normal circumstances, such a thing should not happen.
If it does, there is only one possibility.
I was shocked, so I wanted to call my cronies to come in and go to investigate.
But before he could shout, outside the tent, there was a noisy sound, and a cronie also rushed in in a panic.
"Report, General, the enemy is attacking the camp, and there are fires all over the camp!" The cronie said in a panic.
It's broken~!
Zhang Xun was frightened, ignored the flustered cronie, pressed his sword in his hand, walked quickly outside the camp tent, and walked out of the camp tent.
I saw that many soldiers who had fallen asleep, holding armor and weapons, walked out of the camps in a panic, and outside the camp, there were many sounds of war horses running, and bursts of shouts of killing.
At the same time, in the air, oil canisters were thrown in from outside the camp and smashed everywhere, and the fire oil inside sputtered out.
And a fire had already burned around the camp.
Finished! Zhang Xun thought to himself, and his face was also gray.
Originally.
At the time of the third watch, the Qin army directly launched an operation.
After the news sent by Zhang Xun paralyzed Zhang Xun, as soon as it was night, Qin Yin asked Dian Wei and Xu Chu to take two hundred escorts and start to clear the enemy troops along the way.
Don't give them a chance to get the word across.
In the days I've been here.
They secretly searched for the location of the enemy's detectives, trying not to leave anyone alive.
Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Tai Shici, and Gan Ning each led an army to ambush to prevent Zhang Xun from having a chance to escape.
And Zhao Yun took 3,000 cavalry, horses with grass, and horses' hooves wrapped in cloth, and secretly found not far from the enemy's camp, so he directly launched a charge.
It was not an assault on the enemy camp.
Instead, in front of the main camp, they divided into two teams and ran around the enemy camp, throwing out the oil canister hanging on horseback, and then taking out the fire breaker and throwing it at the place where the oil tank was broken.
Mars burns when it hits oil.
There is fire oil to fuel it, plus the enemy camp is built on grass, and there is a season like autumn.
In an instant, the enemy camp was ablaze.
There were also enemy soldiers, because they were splashed with fire oil, and they also touched the fire, and they burned directly, becoming a fire man, screaming and running around, until they lost their strength, or were killed by their comrades around them, and then fell, but the fire on their bodies was not extinguished.
The tents in the camp also burned, and the enemy soldiers who did not have time to escape were also buried in the flames.
A blazing fire.
Under this dark night sky, there was a bright sky, and even Qin Yin, who was waiting for the good news in the camp of the Qin army three miles away, could see it.
Zhao Yun led 3,000 cavalry, threw all the oil cans hanging on horseback, and directly attacked the already chaotic enemy camp, waving the butcher knife in his hand.
After all, at such a time, it is the time to kill the enemy army and build merit.
"General, let's escape~!" The cronies outside Zhang Xun's tent said to Zhang Xun who came out.
"It's over, it's all over!" Zhang Xun didn't seem to hear the words of his cronies, and he looked depressed, and kept talking, with a dead face.
He knew that it was no longer possible to resist the attack of the Qin army, and even if he asked for help, it was too late.
wanted to mobilize the rest of the troops and horses to come and stop it, but there was no chance.
Because, if Qin Yin can have action, he will think of everything and will not leave anything missing.
At the same time, the rest of the places will also suffer as a result.
Seeing Zhang Xun's appearance.
The cronies around him, without any hesitation, directly helped the depressed Zhang Xun onto the horse, and broke through the siege while the camp was not completely surrounded now.
