Chapter 106: Arson
Lu Xun ordered Bian Xi to lead hundreds of archers to follow Cao's army in pursuit, and at the same time ordered several strong men to set up big drums at the foot of the mountain and beat bravely. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
~~~
As soon as Cao Jun stepped into the mountain, he heard the sound of drums beating more and more rapidly behind him. The crowd was so shocked that they scattered and fled! Xiahou Heng was in the reckless mountains under the support of his relatives, worried and gradually deepened, but his face was very anxious, and he stopped from time to time to look back.
"Lord County Shou, General Xia will definitely be auspicious."
"My lord, Xu Jun is coming to catch up again, let's run away."
"My lord, it's better to get out of this dangerous place quickly, General Xia is here, and it will be fine!"
These relatives were loyal to Xiahou Heng's father and son, and had always been by Xiahou Heng's side, so they naturally knew that Xiahou Heng was worried about the safety of his father Xiahou Yuan.
Of course, they didn't know that Xiahou Yuan had fled for his life elsewhere under the protection of the dead soldiers around him. Originally, it was a dead soldier beside Xiahou Yuan, who fled the battlefield with Xiahou Yuan, ran out of half a mile, and caught up with three companions. Several dead soldiers took Xiahou Yuan and wanted to follow the tail of Cao Jun into Dabie Mountain, at the foot of the mountain. But Lu Xun was one step ahead of them and blocked at the foot of the mountain, so that they had to change their route. Human wisdom has been forced out, especially these dead soldiers who have experienced countless battlefields, and their prediction of danger is many times higher than that of ordinary people. As soon as the few people are combined, let them come up with a way to survive.
They quickly took off Cao Jun's iconic armor and found a nearby place to dig a pit and bury it. Immediately, he stabbed the horse several times, creating a phenomenon that the war horse was injured and frightened away. From the West Gate to Dabie Mountain, the road at the foot of the mountain was covered with the blood of the wounded of the Cao army in the morning, and there were also the corpses of war horses that died on the road. A horse that was wounded on the battlefield and scared away would not be too surprising.
Cao Jun's dead soldiers avoided Xu Jun's scouts, and Xu Jun's passionate drumming allowed them to clearly perceive Xu's general location. They hid in a cave near Xu Jun and took out some internal organs from the dead horse. In the dark, they were allowed to lie down for a while.
And Xiahou Heng led more than 2,000 Cao troops in the mountains, fleeing in panic and not daring to stop.
"Quick, quick, keep up, don't lose the line?"
"You don't want to live, Xu Jun is behind you, let's go!"
"Wow! The general seems to be a little wrong. ā
"You waste at this time, and you still want to be lazy?"
~~~ Xiahou Heng's personal entourage is constantly urging the soldiers to hurry, trying to bring these Cao soldiers back to Xuchang, so as not to alleviate the punishment of his master for losing the city.
Suddenly, a young man who looked a little sturdy came to Xiahou Heng in a few steps, bowed long, and said, "Lord County Shou, this road seems to be a little inappropriate!" ā
Xiahou Heng looked at the person in front of him, his face showed a trace of guilt, and he said warmly: "Brother Ba doesn't need to be polite, isn't the mountain road ahead?"
"Your Excellency doesn't have to be so polite, this mountain road seems to have been deliberately repaired by the enemy, I'm afraid there is an ambush ahead!" Teen Road.
"Bold, Xiahou Ba, you dare to go around the hearts of the army!" A relative beside Xiahou Heng shouted loudly.
"Don't dare, my subordinates are just telling the truth." Teenagers are not humble, no.
It turned out that this person's name was Xiahou Ba, Xiahou Yuan's son, not born in Xiahou Yuan's main room, but after Xiahou Yuan was drunk, he was conceived by a maid. Xiahou Yuan was afraid of other people's jokes, and he never mentioned this son in front of outsiders, and even talked with a little indifference. Xiahou Yuan has many sons, and there will naturally be fights between the sons, even Xiahou Wei didn't like Xiahou Ba this person when he was alive, and he was always sarcastic and difficult for him. once scolded Xiahou Ba's mother in front of him for being shameless and seducing his father, and this slut actually dared to look at him with a face. When he was a child, among many brothers and sisters, only Xiahou Heng liked to play with Xiahouwei and fought against Xiahouwei for him.
Xiahou Heng clearly remembers that once he and Xiahou Ba went out to play, the two chased a group of butterflies to a field, walked and laughed, the butterflies were gone, but Xiahou Heng provoked a bee in the grass on the side of the road, and the biting bee pounced on Xiahou Heng's face, and the bee tail needle kept piercing his face, buzzing sound, spicy stinging, making Xiahou Heng desperately slap his face and cry.
At that time, he was young, and Xiahouba was younger than himself, but Xiahouba was very calm. He quickly jumped off the paddy field, scooped up a stick of field mud, and wiped it on Xiahou Heng and his face~~~. What made Xiahou Heng even more incomprehensible was that Xiahou Bayang begged Xiahou Heng not to say it afterwards! Since then, Xiahou Heng knows that his younger brother is extremely witty, but he is a bit introverted and doesn't like to talk to people.
Since then, every time Xiahou Heng goes out, he likes to take Xiahou Ba with him, and after knowing that his father is cold to him, he always wants to secretly compensate him in his aspects. And in history, Xiahou Ba's life was also very tragic.
Xiahou Ba, the word Zhongquan. is Xiahou Yuan's most famous son, and his ability and limelight have overshadowed his eldest brother. Xiahou Ba is quite talented, although he does not have the title of hereditary father, and there is no Xiahou clan willing to help him, but he can still rely on his own strength to make great achievements, from a partial general to the right general of the protector army, and enter the Bochang Pavilion Marquis. Unfortunately, although he has military ability, he has no luck and does not have enough interpersonal skills. He was at odds with Guo Huai, the assassin of Yongzhou, and his nephew Hou Xuan of Xixia was implicated because of Cao Shuang's affairs and was replaced by Guo Huai, so he was worried that he would be implicated and oppressed, and turned his back on the Cao family, to which his father was loyal, and took refuge in Xishu, which he had gritted his teeth and hated.
It was an astonishing transformation, Xiahou Ba suddenly became a traitor to the family, a traitor to the country, his son was exiled, and he himself became an enemy of Wei and an enemy of his own brothers. Fortunately, Xishu didn't care about Xiahou Ba's hostility to them in the past, but attached great importance to him, and went to greet him when he fled in despair, give him a title, and favor him. Even, Xiahouba also became related to Liu Chan (one of Xiahouba's cousins became Zhang Fei's wife, and their daughter became Liu Chan's queen, so he and Liu Chan are still related). Later, Xiahou Ba became comrades-in-arms with Jiang Wei and Zhang Wei in Xishu, and together they shouldered the responsibilities of destroying Wei, and died of old age in Shu~~~
"Brother Ba, what do you think there will be in ambush?"
Xiahou Ba's discovery made Xiahou Heng's expression tense and asked urgently. He has 100% trust in Xiahouba.
"My lord, we should reroute, the ground is thick with dead branches and grass clippings. If someone sets a fire, it's in danger! "Xiahou Ba finally remembered that Xiahou Yuan was vigilant to him, there was a difference between respect and inferiority, and he could not be crossed, although Xiahou Heng had affection and righteousness for him, but he did not dare to forget his identity.
"Brother Ba, where do you look better?" Xiahou Heng said
Seeing that the front line of the Cao army had rushed to the front of the vine tree wall, Bian Xi on the left and the Xu army archers on the right were holding their bows and arrows at the same time.
