It wasn't until after dark the next day that Xia Houdun finally made a discovery!

Cao Ren had just eaten half a leg of mutton and was dozing in the white tiger skin, when Xia Houdun over there suddenly shouted: "Handsome! The minister knows, the minister knows! ”

Cao Ren woke up suddenly, and immediately came to Xia Houdun with a big coat. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xia Houdun pointed his finger forward and said excitedly: "Look, what is that?" ”

At this time, the sky was just dark, and the outline of the surrounding mountains could be faintly seen, Cao Ren looked in the direction of Xiahoudun's finger, and the first thing he saw was a towering mountain, and then, he saw a fire on the top of the mountain, and then Cao Ren was a little stunned and said: "Isn't that just a bonfire?" How did the remnants of the Xuzhou army run to the top of the mountain? ”

"Campfire?" Xia Houdun shook his head and said, "No, that's a beacon fire!" ”

After saying this, Xia Houdun pointed around again, and then continued: "Look, the king, not only on that mountain, but also on many nearby hills, there are also beacon fires, obviously, the Xuzhou army is through these beacon fires to transmit information, the ancients used beacon fires to warn, but Xi Zhicai used beacon fires to gather troops, what a beacon to gather troops!" ”

"Gathering troops?" Cao Ren paused, and then said, "But there are nearly ten beacons in front, and the radius is dozens of miles, how do you know which direction is the assembly place of the Xuzhou army?" ”

Xia Houdun smiled slightly, pointed to the front and said: "Look, you see, there is only one pile of beacon fire on other hills, but there are three beacon fires on that mountain, if I guess correctly, that direction should be the assembly place of the Xuzhou army!" ”

"Huh?" Cao Ren looked in the direction of Xia Houdun's finger, and sure enough, he saw three beacon fires on the opposite hill.

At that moment, Xiahoudun offered another plan to Cao Ren, Cao Ren couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard it, and immediately instructed Yue Ji to say: "Okay, immediately collect all the cloth in the army, sew this dry food bag overnight, and then order the leader army to fry dry food overnight, this time, the commander will use his own way, and give back to him, hum, hahahaha......"

When it was almost dawn, the Xuzhou troops who had turned into each other rushed to converge. However, it is not the place where there are three beacon fires as Xiahoudun is referring to.

Last night's sneak attack was very smooth, the road that was attacked by the Yuan army may have just entered the mountain, the vigilance is obviously not high, the result was killed by the Xuzhou army by surprise, and finally the Xuzhou army broke the Yuan army, beheaded more than 5,000 people, and the Xuzhou army itself suffered less than 300 casualties, of which less than 150 people were killed.

Such a result may seem exaggerated, but it is not.

Although the Yuan army that went into the mountains to encircle and suppress was also elite, how could it be compared with the Xuzhou army?

You must know that the vast majority of the current 6,000 Xuzhou Army were killed from the battlefield, and then experienced a long-distance and rapid march from Xiaopei to Culai Mountain, not a veteran of a hundred battles with super combat effectiveness and super good physical fitness, and he would not have survived to the present at all.

What's more, Zhuge Jun has now erected a position in the minds of the soldiers.

Now, Zhuge Jun is the god of war in the hearts of the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army, as long as Zhuge is there, the military heart of the Xuzhou Army will be as solid as a rock, as long as Zhuge is there, the fighting spirit of the Xuzhou Army will be stronger than gold and iron! Such a Xuzhou army defeated a small number of Cao troops, and it was still a sneak attack at night, isn't it easy?

The Xuzhou army broke the Cao Yuan coalition army six times in a row, and all the soldiers were rejoicing.

This will, Huang Zhong, Zhou Cang, Liang Xi Jiang Xu and other generals are gathering together to talk and laugh in a low voice, the volume of their speech is not high, but the atmosphere is unusually warm, obviously, the Xuzhou army has won successive battles, so that their mood has become unprecedentedly good, and now thinking back to the retreat in Jiuquan, it seems that it was a long time ago.

"It's so exciting, it's so exciting!" Jiang Xu said, "It's only been a month, and I've already killed nearly 30,000 Yuan Shu!" ”

Liang Xi also said excitedly: "If this continues, in half a year at most, Yuan Shu's army of more than 100,000 will be finished!" ”

"I don't think it will take half a year at all!" Zhou Cang said: "When there are less than 50,000 people left in Cao Ren's army, who else will obey his orders? When the time comes, the coalition forces will fall apart. ”

"Hahaha, then we can go back to Xiaopei, we can go home!"

"Damn, let you say that Lao Tzu really wants to go home, Lao Tzu has not been at home in the past few months, and I don't know what wild seeds the mothers-in-law gave birth to Lao Tzu in the family, but, no matter whose seed it is, as long as it is in Lao Tzu's circle, it is Lao Tzu's cub, and he has to follow Lao Tzu's surname, hahaha......"

Several generals looked enthusiastic, but Zhuge Jun did not dare to be so optimistic.

The Xuzhou army did win several big battles and annihilated many strong troops, but it was not enough to change anything!

The Yuan and Cao coalition forces have suffered several defeats and lost 90,000 people, but Yuan Shu and Cao Cao still have nearly 200,000 troops, compared to their own more than 6,000 remnants, they still occupy a disproportionate overwhelming advantage, and Cao Cao is assisted by Xun Yu's two great bulls, will they watch the coalition army suffer all the time? Apparently not!

Now I have to wait for the other party to crack the secret of gathering troops in the beacon fire, and set up a big game by himself to eat Cao Ren's 80,000 people, that is, Xiao Pei is Lao Tzu.

Although the gathering of troops by the beacon fire has not been seen since ancient times, with the ability of Yadan and Han Sui, as long as they see the beacon with their own eyes, it should not be difficult to discover the secrets in it, right? Hahaha! Zhuge Jun laughed proudly.

Looking back at the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army who were lying or sitting in the dense forest, they were resting, Zhuge Jun suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis, it seems that it is necessary to strengthen vigilance, the Xuzhou Army has attacked the coalition army six times, but don't be attacked by the Qiang army in turn, if the sneak attack by the coalition army is successful, I am afraid that I will be destroyed immediately!

That's because the coalition forces are strong, and six consecutive defeats are just scratching the surface, but they can't afford even one defeat, and now, if they want to survive and survive, they can only win the battle, win the battle, and then win the battle again, they must not be defeated, even if they are defeated only once, they will be doomed immediately!

I'm walking a tightrope now, and once I stumble, I'll be done with it!

At that moment, Zhuge Jun called Zhou Cang to him and asked, "Zhou Cang, have you sent out the scout team?" ”

"Don't worry, general, it's already been sent." Zhou Cang shook his head and said, "Scouts have been sent to the mountain passes on both sides, and they are at least five miles ahead, so the coalition forces don't want to sneak attack us." ”

Zhuge Jun looked up at the dense forests on both sides of the canyon, and suddenly asked, "What about the mountain?" ”

"On the mountain?" Zhou Cang was stunned when he heard this, the coalition army was not the Xuzhou army, could they also go over the mountains and mountains to drill the forest?

Zhuge Jun frowned and ordered: "From today onwards, scouts will be sent to the mountain passes around the camp, and scouts will also be sent to the nearby mountains, and two more teams will be sent!" When one team encounters an accident, the other team immediately blows a trumpet to warn! "The line of sight in the dense forest is not wide enough, and it is easy to be attacked by enemy scouts, so it is necessary to set up double posts.

"No!" Zhou Cang suddenly agreed, and immediately received the order.

After Zhou Cang left, Zhuge Jun looked at the three beacon fires on the top of the mountain and said, "Ji Ling, Cao Ren, this is your death date." Cao Ren, you thought that Lao Tzu relied on beacon fire to connect, but you didn't expect that Lao Tzu relied on a compass, which made you suffer a big loss. Lao Tzu will play fire attack again and burn you Qiang barbarians! Called Huang Zhong and asked him to lead 4,000 elite soldiers to ambush outside the mountain, Zhuge Jun watched Huang Zhong go away, and said to Yan Yan: "Old general, let's leave after a while." ”

Veteran Yan said: "Third son, be careful. ”

Zhuge Jun nodded, and then laughed, with indescribable heroism and confidence in laughter.
