Chapter 100: Withdrawal from Shouchun

"Report, sir! The warriors who went out of the city through the south gate begged to see them. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "In the waiting of Xiahou Yuan's father and son, they finally looked forward to the urgent report of the military marquis.

Several Cao soldiers pulled their heads and stumbled over, "Woo, woo, Lord County Guard, our soldiers are all gone, wow, wow~~" Seeing this situation, Xiahou Yuan felt a sense of loss in his heart, obviously this was a failure.

"Shut up!" Xiahou Heng shouted annoyingly.

"How many enemy troops are there outside the South Gate?"

"This?" The soldiers were stunned and did not answer.

"Say!"

"Many, about two thousand riders." Seeing that no one was silent, one of the soldiers hurried and glanced at his companions, who had fled with him.

"Seriously!"

"Seriously!"

"Yes!" "Yes!" "Yes!" ~~~ Obviously, these defeated soldiers panicked about the military situation, and they were afraid that they would not be able to bear the punishment of failure.

But what kind of person is Xiahou Yuan, that is a grumpy lord. How did the deserters' eyebrows escape his eyes? The tiger's body burst out, and his right leg kicked straight into the chin of the soldier who was speaking in front of him.

"Click!"

"Bump!"

Two broken bones sounded, and the soldier flew out and fell out, not surviving.

"Spare your life!" "Spare your life!" "Spare your life!" "General, spare your life!" The rest of the soldiers saw that Xiahou Yuan had killed one person with his leg stretched, and begged for mercy repeatedly.

"How many Xu Jun Iron Cavalry?"

"General, we can't see it clearly, our army was chased and beaten by enemy cavalry not long after going out, but the enemy cavalry will not exceed 1,000!" A clever soldier poured out the battle outside the south gate in one fell swoop.

"Seriously!" Xiahou Yuan asked again.

"Never dare to deceive the general!" The deserters were much more honest now, and Xiahou Heng saw that their expressions didn't seem to be fake, and he couldn't ask anything, so he wanted to call them down.

"Waste, useless, killed." Xiahou Yuan suppressed his depression overnight, and his anger was turned off in his heart, and he was just venting it with them at this time.

killed several people in a row, and Xiahou Yuan's anger became stronger and stronger. The soldiers at the head of the city, when they saw Xiahou Yuan from a distance, they all trembled.

"General, the warriors who went out of the city have returned, begging to open the city gates under the city!" After a while, Tanma reported again. Xiahou Yuan hurriedly swept down the city, and dozens of Cao soldiers crowded under the city, shouting to open the city gate and let them in. The blood stains on his body were blurred, his armor was torn, and some were still holding his broken arms. Admittedly, this is also a team of defeated soldiers.

Xiahou Yuan felt a little pain in his head, his mood was extremely low, and he was silent.

"Father?"

"Let them in"

"Okay, I'll go down to the city and ask."

"It's fine."

In the middle of the ring, Xiahou Heng returned to the city tower.

"Father, there are more than 2,000 infantry of the Xu Army at the north gate, and according to our army's horse exploration report, the leader is a boy named Lu Xun, who is only thirteen or fourteen years old. The 500 soldiers of our army out of the city have all been exhausted. Xiahou Heng said

"Oh, Lu Xun? Does it have anything to do with Lu Kang? ”

"I don't know."

"There are 2,000 infantry outside the north gate of the Xu army, and 1,000 iron cavalry outside the south gate. According to my estimates, Xu rode 3,000, and there were 2,000, just east and west, 1,000 each. By the way, there is news coming back from the east and west. ”

"Not yet?" Xiahou said helplessly.

The morning light rose from the east, and there was a warm feeling shining on Lu Xun's body, which made him can't help but moan, "Comfortable!" "Give the order, beat the drums, and increase the strength to probe the embankment."

At the head of Shouchun City, at this time, the soldiers had an indescribable disgust for the morning sun. They didn't sleep all night, their eyes were dry, their eyelids were heavy, and they especially wanted to sleep.

"Father, drink saliva." Xiahou Heng looked anxious overnight, and Xiahou Yuan said in pain.

Xiahou Yuan added a little chapped mouth, looked at Xiahou Heng, and Xiahou Heng looked away.

"How many fighters are there in our army?"

"More than 6,000"

"Report, Lord City Guard is not good, something is wrong!" A marquis cried out and galloped in.

"Bastard, how to talk, what's the matter!" Xiahou Heng, who has always been quite gentle, couldn't sink at this time. The war situation is becoming more and more unfavorable, and he is helpless.

"The soldiers at the east gate and the south gate heard that the enemy was going to flood the city, so they opened the city gate and ran away"

"What?" Xiahou Yuan grabbed the armor on the marquis's chest and strangled him.

"What's going on now?"

"Cough, cough, cough, fortunately, the last general found out early, closed the city gate again, and now has sent his relatives to guard it. But the soldiers on the tower of the city have asked to go out of the city, and I am afraid that my men will not be able to hold it for long. Facing Xiahou Yuan's fierce look, the military marquis didn't dare to move, and he was strangled by his neck and gasped.

As strong as Xiahou Yuan, he was also stunned at this time, the situation was very bad. The marquis earned and moved back.

"Dig the embankment and flood the city!"

"Dig the embankment and flood the city!"

"Dig the embankment and flood the city!"

~~~

Outside the north gate, the cry that seemed to be threatening to demand people's lives sounded again, floating leisurely up the city and reaching everyone's ears.

"Report, Lord City Guard, Second General He, He, He," a Cao soldier suddenly crashed away from the military marquis and knelt in front of Xiahou Yuan.

"Who is so lax! Don't put Cao Jun ~~~" Xiahou Heng saw that there were many soldiers rushing in regardless of the report, and he also wanted to kill. Isn't this soldier the little Luo Zi next to the second brother? But in the arms of this pawn, a spherical object wrapped in canvas. I think of this person crying just now.

Xiahou Heng and Xiahou Yuan glanced at each other quickly, and Xiahou Yuan stretched out his trembling hand and stretched out his hand to the package. Xiao Luozi was frightened by the bloodless appearance of Xiahou Yuan's face, and unconsciously took two steps back.

"General, general, general!"

"Give it to me!"

The canvas was wrapped in three layers, Xiahou Yuan opened layer by layer, everyone fought to breathe, staring at the package in front of them, Xiahou Yuan had tears in his eyes, he had guessed a rough idea, but he felt that he didn't want to believe such a result if he was killed. The last layer was lifted, and it was indeed the head of Xiahou Wei, who had been dead for a long time.

"Second General!" The soldiers knelt down

"Wow, wow, second brother"

Xiahou Yuan only felt cold hands and feet, a dizziness hit his head, his eyes were dark and he lost consciousness, and he sat down. "Father! Father! “

"Hold the second general, if you don't do it, I want your dog's life!"

Xiahou Heng didn't care about his grief, and hurriedly rubbed Xiahou Wei's middle school. In the middle of the moment, Xiahou Wei woke up quietly, glanced at everyone, and surprisingly calmed down.

"Heng'er, we can't defend this city, send an order to let the soldiers get ready and withdraw to Xuchang!"

After his subordinates left, Xiahou Wei said: "Not far from the north gate is the Huai River, and the soldiers will be blocked outside the city, so they can't go through the north gate." The East Gate, the West Gate, and the South Gate remain. Outside the east gate, there was a flat river, and the soldiers could not outrun the enemy horsemen. We can only leave from the south gate and the west gate, I estimate that Chen Zhi will leave an ambush at the west gate, but Dabie Mountain is so big, they can't all be ambushed, this is also our hope of escape. ”

Sighing, Xiahou Yuan's eyes glowed inexplicably, and he said ruthlessly, "You divide the soldiers into three parts, personally select three thousand of them who are more loyal as a team, and the rest are divided into three teams, eight hundred out of the north gate, one thousand out of the east gate, and one team out of the south gate."

"Father, didn't you say ~~~" Xiahou Yuan stretched out his right hand Xiahou Heng stopped and said, facing Xiahou Wei's head, tears flowed like a spring

"Yes, I'll do it, father, you rest."
