Now Xiahoudun was talking to Qin Qi about his own experiences after saying goodbye, and Qin Qi couldn't help but be shocked when he heard it: "My subordinates really admire the general's courage, I thought that the general's order to call the soldiers to burn the grain and grass just now was just an expedient measure, but I didn't expect it to be true!" ”

"Hehehe, this is also good luck, crooked hit! By the way, you said that it was Liu Biao's daughter who fought with you? Is this true? Xiahoudun smiled faintly, and then asked Qin Qi as if he remembered something.

Qin Qi nodded: "I was half unconscious and half conscious, General Guan Yu rescued me from her and seriously injured the other party!" ”

"Guan Yu?" Xiahoudun seemed to be naturally dissatisfied with this person, and sneered, "He will also really help us?" ”

Qin Qi's pale face made people worry that he would faint at any time in the firelight, he coughed a few times, and said to Xiahoudun: "At first, the last general didn't believe that this was true, but according to the report of the last general's subordinates, during the period after I fell unconscious, it was Guan Yu who brought the last general back to the camp, and when the enemy army came to attack, it was only because General Guan Yu repelled the enemy army!" ”

"Anyway, people also saved your life, and you have the opportunity to repay them in the future!" Xiahoudun patted Qin Qi on the shoulder and said, "But where has Guan Yu gone now?" ”

Qin Qi said: "The Jingzhou Army marched on five routes, Cai Mao was just one of them, as well as Wang Wei, Liu Pan, Huang Zu and Liu Biao himself, Guan Yu seemed to lead a few people to look elsewhere in order to divert the attention of several other people!" ”

"It's hard for him to think about it!" Xiahoudun said with a guilty face, "Now even I owe him a favor to Guan Yu."

While he was talking, his subordinates reported: "General Qiqi, wolf smoke is lit in the city, it seems that he wants to ask for help!" ”

Hearing this news, Xiahoudun and Qin Qi looked at Xinye City together, only to see that in the night, several wolf smoke could be faintly seen rising into the sky, straight into the air.

Xiahoudun sneered: "Cai Mao, this guy has been defeated for a while, is he stupid?" Lighting wolf smoke at night, we can see vaguely outside the city, let alone the enemy army hundreds of miles away? ”

Qin Qi also laughed: "That is, unless the enemy army is nearby, it ......"

He suddenly stopped speaking, and at the same time there was a loud noise from the north and southeast, which shook the birds in the forest and fled one after another.

Xiahoudun also got up suddenly: "I really said it, there are enemy troops nearby, but there are also friendly troops nearby, but I don't know which of these two groups is the enemy and which is the friend!" ”

After that, he shouted: "Where is the horse?" Let's see who is coming from the southeast? ”

"No!" Several scouts immediately rode away.

Qin Qi had already put on his horse and began to beckon the Qingzhou soldiers to organize defense: "Brothers, there is another battle to fight!" Are you afraid? ”

"Don't be afraid, Qingzhou heroes, invincible in the world!" Thousands of Qingzhou soldiers quickly formed a large formation, waiting for the incoming enemy.

At this time, the eastern and western heralds came to report to Xiahoudun: "General Qiyu, Cai Mao has withdrawn his men and horses into the city, and the two captains of Han Hao and Shi Lian have come to ask for orders to fight!" ”

"No hurry!" Xiahoudun said lightly, "Cai Mao naturally knows the situation here, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not go out of the city to wait for the opportunity to attack, he and the two of them do not have many soldiers and horses, if they are transferred over, one is not enough to resist the enemy, and I will also suffer from the enemy here, and let them stand still, and send people to find out who is in the north!" ”

"No!" The two heralds got the order, and they didn't dare to slack off, so they turned over and went to give the order.

At this time, the horse who went to the southeast to investigate the news had also returned, and before he could get off the horse, he replied to Xiahoudun: "General, it is the Huangzu people of Jingzhou, there are very many, there are nearly 20,000 people!" ”

Hearing the news, Xiahoudun was shocked: "20,000 people? Huang Zu has lost his troops since he was defeated by Gao Yi last year, and he has shrunk in the southwest corner of Jiangxia, even if he tries his best, there are only 10,000 horses at most, where is the extra 10,000? ”

Qin Qi said on the side: "Presumably, it must be the Jiangxia water thief Zhang Hu Chen Sheng who was tempted by Huang Zu and attached himself to the Yangtze River water thief, right?" ”

Xiahoudun sneered and put the unicorn tooth on his shoulder, looked at the long dragon composed of torches in the distance and said: "A water thief is a water thief after all, and it is just a momentum!" ”

Qin Qi thought for a while and said: "Even so, after all, the other party is outnumbered, and our army has no food and grass to help, it is better to leave five hundred people here to paralyze Cai Mao, and then order two thousand people to ambush on both sides of the road, the general is here to wait for the rabbit, and the last general will go to bring in the prey, cough-" Before he finished speaking, Qin Qi coughed heavily again.

"If you still lure the enemy like this, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to come back?" Xiahoudun smiled and rode out of the horse, "The deployment is handed over to you, I will personally go to lead the enemy army to the ambush circle!" ”

"General!" Qin Qi felt that sometimes Xiahoudun took too much care of himself, just like his biological father, and he couldn't help but think of what his uncle Cai Yang said when he handed him over to Xiahoudun:

"Yuan Rang, I'm sorry for you, this kid is fast, it's a pity that I can't play an advantage here, only Master Yi can teach!"

"Hehe, okay, it's rare that General Cai Yang can look down on me Xiahou Yuanrang, I will definitely not let you down, train this kid into an excellent general!"

"This is a military order!" Xiahou, who had already led the troops far away, said without looking back, "I'm optimistic about you!" ”

At this moment, Huang Zuzheng and his generals Su Feichen led 10,000 horses to Xinye with Zhang Shuo and others, and there were 5,000 water thieves from Zhang Hu and Chen Sheng on the left and right to respond.

Suddenly, the junior colonel came to report to Huang Zu: "There is a group of men and horses under the banner of Xiahoudun, blocking the road and blocking the advance of our army!" ”

"What?" Huang Zu couldn't help but be slightly surprised when he heard Xiahoudun's name, and after looking at each other with his generals, he said, "How many people are there?" ”

"General Huiyu, less than a thousand!"

Su Fei stepped forward and said to Huang Zu: "I have heard that the elite Qingzhou soldiers of Cao Cao's army are under the command of this Xiahou Dun, and they are known as one for ten ......."

"After all, the claim is the claim, and our Jingzhou Army is also known as one for hundred!" Chen looked at Su Fei with contempt, "Isn't Captain Su afraid?" ”

Su Fei was furious: "What are you?" When I followed Lord Taishou to pacify Jiangxia and galloped across the country, you weren't even a pawn, don't think that you have made some small achievements recently and no one is in your eyes! ”

"You!" Chen refused to admit defeat, pointed at Su Fei and scolded, "Since you are so capable, why were you killed by Gao Yi's people and abandoned your armor in the first place?" Don't talk big here, if you go to capture Xiahoudun to see Taishou yourself, then you will say that I am incompetent, and I will definitely throw myself to the ground! ”

Zhang Shuo was busy playing a round on the side: "Okay, okay, let's say a few words, the other party is only a thousand people, even if it is elite?" As long as our army works together, it will be hard to find! ”

Huang Zu coughed and said: "You guys don't have infighting on weekdays, today is on the battlefield, don't let other Jingzhou generals see my Huang Zu's jokes, besides, the lord is my righteous brother, but I have never had the political achievements and military merits that I can handle, I don't know how many people are gossiping behind me, this is an opportunity, all give me a 120,000 spirit!" ”

"No!"

At this time, Tan Ma suddenly came to report one after another: "My lord, Xiahoudun doesn't seem to have found any trace of our army, it seems that he is commanding the people to rob the people's property, I heard that it is because the grain and grass have been exhausted, and the army is discouraged!" ”

"My lord, Chen Sheng has already encountered the Qingzhou soldiers and started a fierce battle!"

"My lord, Zhang Hu also joined the battle and attacked the Qingzhou soldiers with Chen Sheng!"

Huang Zu was stunned and said: "Xiahoudun led the troops to rob, I didn't hear it wrong, right?" Is Cao Cao's military discipline already so bad? ”

Su Fei said on the side: "This is not surprising, the Qingzhou soldiers were originally born in the Yellow Turban, and the thief's heart will not be easily extinguished, not to mention that the grain and grass are exhausted now, my lord, let's go quickly, if we can take Xiahoudun, Cao Cao is tantamount to missing an arm!" ”

Huang Zu shook his head and said: "Things won't be so simple, Xiahoudun is Cao Cao's general, how can there be only these people?" Will there be an ambush ahead? ”

Zhang Shuo said with a smile: "Impossible, the lack of people and horses must be because they are scattered to grab food, just give us the opportunity to break through each one!" ”

As he was talking, Tanma reported again: "My lord, the Qingzhou soldiers have begun to retreat because they are carrying baggage, their combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced, and Chen Sheng and Zhang Hu are leading the army to pursue!" ”

Chen immediately said to Huang Zu at this time: "My lord is not good, Xiahou Dun will definitely order his subordinates to give up the baggage when he retreats, Chen Sheng and Zhang Hu were originally born as water thieves, and when they see the baggage, they will definitely rob it, if there is an ambush for the two of them, it is dangerous!" ”

Huang Zu also woke up, and immediately took out the order flag and ordered the order to hold the flying horse to stop the second general from pursuing the Qingzhou soldiers: "Seeing the order flag is like seeing people, there is an ambush ahead, don't pursue, the violator will be killed!" ”

It's a pity it's late.

It's not because of the ambush, nor because they only care about robbing the baggage of the Qingzhou soldiers, Chen Sheng and Zhang Hu didn't give up these baggage, but after they grabbed it, they opened it and looked at it, and they were furious.

It's all straw in the baggage!

It is true that the Qingzhou soldiers are short of food, how can they easily throw away the grain and grass they have in hand? Xiahoudun, who slowly retreated with his subordinates, laughed on the horse: "Don't worry, the enemy will chase after him even if he knows that there is an ambush now!" ”

"Damn, dare to play with our brothers!" Zhang Hu Chen Sheng glanced at each other, his eyes were about to erupt with fire, "Kill, even if there is really an ambush ahead, you have to kill this bastard Xiahoudun!" Brothers, kill! ”

"Kill!" Under the leadership of Zhang Hu and Chen Sheng, these nearly 10,000 horses drilled towards Xiahoudun's open pocket without hesitation.

"The thief will not leave, eat me with a knife!" Zhang Hu Chen Sheng was fiddled with by Xiahoudun, and his heart was extremely angry, and he couldn't listen to the order from Huang Zu at all, and led his headquarters to kill Xiahoudun.

Xiahou fought and retreated, deliberately showing his clumsiness, making the two underestimate their strength, and ordered the soldiers to shout at each other to scatter and flee Yunyun, and soon led the other party into an ambush circle.

This time, Zhang Hu saw that Xiahoudun was no longer running away, and sneered: "Look at where you run this time!" ”
