Chapter 441: Depressed Zhou Cang
Cao Cao didn't know anything about Cao Zhen's death, but until the next morning, none of Cao Zhen's troops returned, which made him feel very shocked, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, Cao Xiu, another young general under Cao Cao's command, stepped forward and said: "Uncle, last night Brother Zi Dan led the army to attack Liu He's camp, and there was no survivor, this thing is very strange, my nephew wants to lead the army to break into the camp that Brother Zi Dan broke into again tonight, to find out what happened last night, and by the way, to find out the news of Brother Dan, if he is captured, my nephew will bring him back by the way, in fact, sometimes I am afraid that Brother Zi Dan will encounter something unexpected.......
"Wen Lie, don't say it again, I believe that Zidan is just trapped now, Liu and Xiao'er have always cherished their lives, I believe that Zidan must be locked up. Okay, since you want to investigate, then I promise you that you will also bring 5,000 soldiers to the same camp tonight, and I don't believe that Liu and Xiao'er can calculate that I will carry out a sneak attack on the same camp for two consecutive days! Cao Cao was also very worried about Cao Zhen's safety, this is one of the more outstanding military generals in the next generation of the Cao family, if there is anything missing, it would be a pity.
Cao Cao believed that even the most clever strategists would never have thought that they would launch a sneak attack on the same camp the next day, so he thought that once Cao Xiu attacked the camp this time, he would definitely be able to return with a big victory, not only to boost morale, but also to take the opportunity to rescue Cao Zhen.
However, there is one thing that Cao Cao didn't expect, that is, there is a Jia Xu in Liu He's camp who has a powerful "counter-calculation" skill, which can not only see through his conspiracy, but also formulate new strategies based on his plans, and as long as Jia Xu formulates a strategy based on this, anyone with intelligence lower than him will not be able to see through, even Sima Yi, Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu and others with the highest intelligence in his camp will definitely not be able to see through.
And the neglect of this point led to Cao Cao suffering serious losses again.
That night, Cao Xiu led his army to the outside of Zhoucang's camp and launched a sneak attack on Zhoucang's camp according to almost the same plan as when Cao Zhen attacked yesterday.
Although he already knew the other party's plan in advance, and Liu He also took exactly the same response as yesterday, and many soldiers envied Zhou Cang for being able to make great achievements again, but Zhou Cang's heart was very depressed.
"His grandmother's, yesterday that Cao Zhen came and came, after all, he was an ignorant and fearless, but tonight there was another one, and it was just a person who looked down on me, and he looked down on me one after another, what did he think of my camp? Tonight, I will definitely let the damned thief soldier master taste my ferocity again, let them know that Grandpa Zhou Cang is not easy to mess with, sons, cheer up, we are now being laughed at by the brothers in other camps, saying that why the enemy army does not dare to rob other people's camps, but they have a good eye on our camp, which obviously thinks that we are easy to bully, but are we really so easy to bully? Tonight, we must let these thieves flow rivers of blood and not leave a single piece of armor behind! ”
Zhou Cang angrily led the army to squat outside the camp, watching the enemy army arrive, boldly broke into the periphery of the camp, shot down several straw men on the lookout with bows and arrows, and then swaggered into the camp that he had only repaired with great difficulty today, and then set fire there.
The flames quickly spread to the entire camp, which made Zhou Cang a little distressed, and at the same time full of deep anger, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and when the other party finally broke into the house again according to Liu He's plan, he immediately ordered the army to launch a crazy counterattack.
Tonight, all the soldiers in the Zhoucang camp held their breath, they must do their best to kill the enemy this night, and they are afraid of killing, so that they will remember their camp and their own team from now on, and they will never dare to raise the idea of aggression again.
Therefore, after Zhou Cang just gave the order to counterattack, the soldiers under Zhou Cang's command immediately broke out the strongest attack, rushing towards the enemy army group one by one, and then launched a crazy killing.
There is a saying among the people, those who are afraid of being stunned, those who are stunned are afraid of dying, but this sentence is not rough, although the army led by Cao Xiu is struggling to break through, but the purpose of breaking through is to survive rather than death, so there is no way for Lieutenant General Zhou Cangjun to make this kind of lifeless fighting except to escape.
However, due to Liu He's careful deployment in advance, the soldiers under Cao Xiu's command were surrounded by the camp on all sides, and the fires they set out everywhere in the camp were burning, which made the situation of the soldiers under Cao Xiu's command even worse, and finally had no choice but to announce surrender, and some of the more strong personalities even chose to commit suicide directly.
Cao Xiu was also unable to escape in this battle, but unlike Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu was not captured alive, but died here, mainly because Liu He was reminded by the system that Cao Cao's sons and nephews would never surrender to him because of their blood loyalty.
It was precisely because he got Liu He's order in advance, and Zhou Cang learned through the surrendered soldiers that the main general of the enemy army who attacked the camp tonight was Cao Xiu among the children of the Cao family, and there was no need to surrender, so his heart was ruthless, and he gave a dead hand to Cao Xiu, only less than twenty times, Zhou Cang used the old method to kill the opponent's hooves first, and when the war horse screamed and threw Cao Xiu to the ground, Zhou Cang's eyes were quick, and his hand fell with a knife, resulting in Cao Xiu's life.
Poor Cao Xiu, the future famous general of the Cao Wei Group, the pillar of the imperial court, and Cao Cao, who was praised as "my family's thousand-mile horse", died like this.
After this battle, Zhou Cang asked Liu He to publicly announce his achievements in killing Cao Zhen, the general of Cao Cao's army, and Cao Xiu in the two days before and after, so as not to be despised by those blind enemy soldiers in the future, and also to be despised and ridiculed by his brothers in his own army in the future.
Liu Hezheng wanted to show off his military might, so he naturally agreed to Zhou Cang's request without hesitation.
So Zhou Cang cut off Cao Xiu's head, ordered the army, and claimed that Cao Zhen was also killed by himself before, and at the same time boldly shouted to Cao Cao, if you want to come, but it is best to find some people who really have skills, it is useless to come with a wine bag and rice bag like this, and it is a waste of your strength.
"Hehe, this time I think Cao Cao will dare to sneak attack my camp again in the future? Do you dare to look down on me again? Heck, I can finally get a good night's sleep in the next few days. Zhou Cang looked in the direction of Xu Ducheng and said with a smile.
