Cao Ren's headquarters was 8,000 soldiers, and then Jia Xu had 3,000 elite defenders left in Xiangcheng, and at the same time, Li Dian was ordered to lead 5,000 soldiers to Xiangcheng to help Cao Ren, and Xiangcheng provided 60,000 well-equipped soldiers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Cao Ren received Cao Cao's order that Starry Night went straight to Wancheng.

Gao Shun had already detected the movements of Cao Ren's army with a flying horse, and asked Xu Shu to come to discuss countermeasures.

Lu Xun and Lu Qiling had just returned from Chaohu Lake and walked into the county government together to discuss countermeasures.

"Wancheng Ming has an army of 10,000, but in fact, the elite is really less than 3,000, and the rest are auxiliaries, how can they retreat from the enemy?" Gao Shun said worriedly. Three thousand soldiers can completely defend Wancheng, and his task is not only to hold Wancheng, but also to send grain and grass to Tongguan and Zhangliao. Once Cao Ren besieged the city, there would be no food and grass in Zhang Liao.

Xu Shu said: "The lord left me and Ji Da to sit in Wancheng, and I knew that Cao Cao was unwilling, and he would invade the territory. Wancheng Shangtun has grain and grass sent to Luoyang and other places and hundreds of thousands of people, which cannot be lost. When a strong enemy attacked, he sent someone to say that Zhang Yun retreated from the enemy together. ”

Wancheng Lu Bu had already promised to give it to Liu Biao, and at this critical juncture, Liu Biao of course had to send troops to help in the war.

Zhang Yun received an emergency from Wancheng and led an army of 5,000 to be stationed in Huashui, thinking that it was solidarity, but it was only support.

Cao Ren's soldiers came very quickly, and on the third day they arrived at Wancheng and camped sixty miles away.

Gao Shun led his troops to meet the enemy, and the two armies lined up in battle. Gao Shun slapped his horse and scolded: "Cao Cao is autocratic and powerful, and he is blessed by himself; The people of the time coerced, and they did not dare to speak up, and everyone who helped the rebels and thieves was punished. ”

Cao Ren ordered Li Dian to go out of battle, Li Dian was scolded by Gao Shun speechless, and he swung his knife to kill, and the two fought for 80 rounds without winning or losing. Xu Shu was worried that Gao Shun would lose, Mingjin withdrew his troops, and Li Dian chased after him, but was killed and intercepted by the women's battalion led by Lu Qiling. The two sides collected their troops and returned to their camps.

Xu Shu said to Lu Xun: "Looking at it from a high place today, Cao Ren's soldiers and horses are strong, and it may be difficult to defeat him, I don't know if Bo Yan has a strategy to break the enemy?" ”

"Stratagem is just icing on the cake, if stratagem can break a strong enemy, then what can the army do? In the face of absolute strength, any trickery is powerless. Lu Xun shook his head and said: "Our army is in a passive situation, and we can't break the enemy unless we use one as ten." ”

Gao Shun said: "Then take one as ten." ”

After Gao Shun finished speaking, seeing that Lu Xun and Xu Shu were puzzled, he continued: ""Wei Xuanzi" is respected by the generals of the world, and the core of this strange book is: heavy punishment. He said that the famous generals of the ancient times were not strict in military discipline, and the ancient ones who were good at using soldiers could kill half of the pawns, followed by killing three out of tenth, and killing one-tenth of them. Those who can kill half of it, Weigahaine; Kill the thirteen, and force the princes; Kill the eleven, and order the soldiers. ”

"General Gao must not do this, the harsh laws may provoke a mutiny." Xu Shu hurriedly stopped. The pawn here is not the soldier who kills the enemy, but the soldier who kills his own.

"Sun Tzu, Wu Qi, Tian Sui Tho, Han Xin, Zhou Yafu and other famous generals govern the army strictly, but they are deeply supported by the soldiers. Shun is not talented, willing to be like the sages, meritorious will be rewarded, and mistakes must be corrected. ”

The next day, Cao Ren sent Li Dian to lead 5,000 troops to the front.

Gao Shun stood in front of the general: "Song Gang led two hundred people to break through the enemy formation, but there was a retreat, behead!" ”

"What are you kidding, 200 people broke a formation of 5,000 people, let's send them to death, labor and management don't go!" Song Gang took the lead in lifting the burden and not doing it.

"Who else wouldn't want to obey the general's orders?" Gao Shun calmly asked the two hundred soldiers under the command of Song Gang.

The soldiers under Song Gang's command, you look at me, I look at you, and they all went out of the ranks and were unwilling to go out to break the enemy.

"It's clearly sending us to die, and I'm going home...... I don't want to be a soldier...... I don't want to die......"

"If you're afraid of death, don't be a soldier. Song Gang snubbed the military situation and beheaded! His subordinates do not respect the general's order, behead! Gao Shun shouted coldly.

The three hundred soldiers of the camp stepped forward after hearing the order, and they couldn't help but catch Song Gang and his subordinates and kill them on the spot. Two hundred heads fell in front of the battle, and the soldiers on both sides of the battle were dumbfounded.

Li Dian saw what Gao Shun had done, and said happily: "Gao Shun brought about his own destruction, and we will wait and see if we stand still." ”

Gao Shun ignored the bloody head in front of the formation, and shouted at the chilling headquarters: "Gao surpasses the column, lead the headquarters of two hundred people to break the enemy formation." ”

Gao Chao trembled and came out of the big formation: "Father...... I ......"

"There are no fathers and sons on the battlefield, if you want to disobey the military order, cut it!" Gao Shun's eyes widened, and he was so frightened that Gao Chao swallowed what he wanted to say.

"Ben will demand: be sure to win, if you can't win and lose the battle, the defeat will return to one person to kill one, the defeat to return two people to kill two, all defeated and retreated, all killed!" Gao Shun's words fell into Gao Chao's ears like a thunderbolt from the sky, which was to force him to death.

"I won't be open to you just because you are my son, and I will show no mercy to military law." Gao Shun's voice slowed down: "If you kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, you will be recorded one by one, and a reward of ten will be awarded for killing one person, five people will be promoted to the third level, and ten people will be crowned as a marquis!" If you die in battle, the bounty and bereavement will be sent to your family. ”

Seeing Gao Shun's resolute expression, Gao Chao knew that there was no room for negotiation in this matter, and with the determination to die, he stuck his war knife on the ground and knelt on the ground: "The unfilial son is superb and farewell, if he can survive, he will serve his father again." ”

Gao Chao got up and lifted the broadsword, turned around and looked down at the soldiers, and roared out the fear in his heart: "Kill!" ”

"Kill!" Two hundred soldiers knew their fate next, and they screamed with grief.

Gao Shun didn't look at Gao Shun, and continued to point with a desperate expression. He was afraid that he couldn't help but not let his son fight, he didn't want Gao Chao to see the reluctance in his heart, in order not to cause a mutiny, in order to break the strong enemy, he could only use his son's life to warn the three armies, and use his superb life to correct military law, his tears fell to his heart.

"Is Gao Shun crazy? The tiger is poisonous and does not eat children, he is trying to force his son to death. Li Dian couldn't help but say to the deputy general.

"Kill" Gao Chao shouted angrily, and his two legs stepped towards the enemy's large array step by step, and with each step, his heart became more and more fearful.

One step, two steps, three steps...... It was closer, getting closer and closer to the battle formation of Li Dian's army.

"Shoot the arrows!" Li Dian let out a loud shout, and the overwhelming arrows shot at Gao Chao's two hundred people.

"Kill!" Superb neck waiting to be slaughtered. Two hundred people hissed in despair.

The arrow puffed into the body, and was shot over more than 100 times in an instant.

"Kill!" Ignoring the arrow stuck in his shoulder socket, Gao Chao continued to step forward. The soldiers behind him who were not killed by the arrows got up and continued to move forward, some of them had several arrows in their faces, and some of them were shot from the mouths by sharp arrows, as long as they were not out of breath, they continued to get up and move forward under the leadership of Gao Chao.

This group of staggering forward, the soldiers who had nothing to do with the past were like ghosts returning, fearless of death, step by step across the distance between the two armies. The soldiers on both sides forgot that they should fight, and were horrified by the resolute aura of this compelling warrior.

"Attack!"

Approaching Li Dian's array, the superb soldiers transformed the despair in their hearts into a desperate fight, and at this moment, they forgot their fears and only had the enemy in their eyes.
