The next day, Cao Zhang came to the open space in front of the county government, and saw thousands of people counting the food in their hands to the soldiers, and the whole Lin Shu was already a mess, the corpses were everywhere, dilapidated, and he had really experienced a catastrophe, but the people of Lin Shu should not be dead, because Cao Zhang could still hear the low sobs. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is the troubled times, the people have been violated and hurt, but they are not even qualified to cry out to the heavens and the earth, because they are afraid that crying loudly will be killed by this group of inhumane strong men.

With a long sigh, Cao Zhang was still a little unbearable when he saw the scene of the devastated life, but he didn't have a choice, this is the best way to deceive Yuan Shao, only in the territory of Cao Jun's indiscriminate killing, indiscriminate robbery, can he show that he is not incompatible with Cao Jun's oath, this is also a bitter meat plan, but the price of this bitter meat plan is greater.

Xiahou Heng's face was not very good, and he walked up to Cao Zhang and saluted: "My lord, all six thousand three hundred and twenty-three people have completed their tasks. ”

Cao Zhang nodded and said, "Okay, now everyone who is only afraid of Lin Wei will treat us as Yuan Jun, open the door and let these people go, so that they can spread our atrocities all over Jizhou." ”

Xiahou Heng replied: "No! After that, he went to arrange with Chen Zhi to open the city gate to drive out the people, generally after looting, the people will be driven out of their homes, and then burned down, otherwise they will directly slaughter the city, and will not let the people stay in the city, because that will so, it is better to destroy it in one fell swoop, this cruel law of war has in the Qin Dynasty.

Cao Zhang looked at the strong men with big bags and small bags, their eyes had excitement and exhaustion after crazy venting, and there was also greed for getting money, this is a kind of human annihilation of the eyes, Cao Zhang nodded secretly, killing this group of turtle grandsons, there is no need to feel guilty!

It didn't take long for Xiahou Heng to come back and resume his life, only to hear him say: "My lord, now that the gates of the four counties of Lin Xian have been opened, do you want to start driving the people away now?" ”

Cao Zhang nodded and said, "Go ahead!" After driving them away, it took two days to reorganize the people, and then leave Lin Xi, this formation of marching has to worry about Shuzhi and Boquan, after all, more than 4,000 of us take care of more than 6,000 people, so that none of them escape, it is still a little difficult. ”

Xiahou Heng left as soon as he agreed, and Cao Zhang returned to the county government, as the boss, he only needed to give orders, and did not need to do it himself.

Two days later, 6,323 people carried grain to Jizhou under the supervision of more than 4,000 'Yuan troops', not only did none of these people carry a large amount of military rations, but also carried their own looted property, and they were also divided into four teams by more than 4,000 'Yuan troops' and sandwiched in the middle, which limited their possibility of escape to the greatest extent.

Lin thought that Cangting had more than 200 miles of road, and there was only a small town in the middle, and there was no county seat, so there was no regular army stationed, and the Yuan army who saw Cao Zhang's disguise on this road was also indistinguishable from false.

As soon as he entered Jizhou, Cao Zhang sent scouts to Yecheng to investigate Yuan Shao's movements, as long as Yuan Shao left Yecheng, then his Cao Zhang's task was completed, as for the stupid thing of pinching Yuan Shao with Cao Cao Cao Cao did not do it, now his sergeant is wearing all Yuan Jun's clothes, if he stands up, Cao Jun will not do Cao Zhang's clothes together, Cao Jun has many generals, and he may not be able to say who is the inner ghost, so Cao Cao issued a general order and is not clear, if Cao Zhang uses what code code to identify Cao Jun, then maybe it will be revealed, Therefore, Cao Zhang decisively decided to march only a hundred miles away from Cangting, and left immediately after making the illusion of a short encounter with Cao's army, leaving Yuan Shao and Cao Cao to attack on his own.

So after three days of marching, Cao Zhang camped in a valley more than 100 miles away from Cangting, this valley is not only narrow, but also a dead end, only one mouth can go out, the locals call this place Hukou Valley.

And Cao Zhang's way of camping is also very strange, he let those strong men who were conscripted as civil husbands camp in the valley, and more than 3,000 soldiers under his command camped in the middle of the mountain, and the military rations were stationed at the mouth of the valley, and a fence was set up to hold them, and another 1,000 soldiers were sent to guard the granary.

This is a completely unreasonable way of camping, because the granary camp blocks the only exit, and if anything happens, the 1,000 soldiers guarding the grain will become alone, and if the grain and grass are burned, the soldiers in the middle of the valley will not be able to rescue them.

But those strong men are not generals, and they have never learned the art of war, so they don't know that this is unreasonable, but Xiahou Heng and Chen Zhi know Cao Zhang's thoughts, so they don't speak, and this weird camp is set down.

On the evening of the same day, Cao Zhang lined up Xiahou Heng to the Gukou camp where the grain was taught, and at the same time secretly ordered Chen to cut down the trees on the mountain to make rolling logs.

Three days later, the scout came to the valley camp, and told Cao Zhang that Yuan Shao had sent troops from Yecheng, through Anyang, and the two counties of Dangyin approached Cangting, and it could be seen from Yuan Shao's marching route that he was in order to echo his own "vanguard army", Cao Zhang knew that the time had come after hearing the news, and immediately informed Chen Zhi to launch a surprise attack tonight while this group of strong men were asleep, and it was necessary to let this group of people die here.

At the same time, Xiahou Heng was ordered to divide enough soldiers from the granary to eat dry food for three days, and at the same time guard the granary to prevent this group of strong men from escaping from the valley.

That night, Cao Chang tied his horse under a tree, and hung the spear of the Zhangba snake on his horse, and he only brought the sword hanging from his waist, because the horse was not very useful in the valley raid.

At this time, Cao Chang was halfway up the mountain, and the sergeants under his command stayed silently, waiting for the commander's orders, and now every two sergeants were holding a huge pile of rolling logs, apparently used to greet the militia below the valley.

This is Cao Zhang's gesture, the sergeant next to him immediately put down the rolling log, the rumbling sound immediately broke the silence of the long night, this sound is getting louder and louder, and gradually it has entered the angry thunder and broke through the air, and the momentum is amazing to the extreme, because there are sergeants in the valley on three sides to put down the rolling log, and many strong men who are still asleep have turned into meat paste in this rumbling sound.

They didn't expect this group of "Yuan Army" to suddenly attack them, earlier they were transporting food for these "Yuan Army", and the "Yuan Army" also burned and looted them, it seemed so friendly, so they slept well, and now these Yuan Army has become a life-seeking Yama, with the halberd that was once inserted into their master's body with a pair of rolling logs to kill in the valley, with a cold blade mercilessly slashing their throats.

Another merciless killing.

The sleepy-eyed and unarmed strong men could only flee in the face of such killing, not to the mountains, because the Yuan army was coming down from the mountains layer by layer, and the sharp halberd blades under the moonlight were extremely dazzling, and they were looking for death on the mountain.

So they chose to flee in a swarm to the barracks that were cut off by the fence, as long as they pushed to the fence and passed through the barracks of the barracks, wouldn't they be able to escape?

Under the threat of death, many people thought of this way of life, so they chose to flee there, but when they rushed to the fence and were about to reach out and push to the fence, the gap between the fences suddenly pierced out countless halberds, and stabbed the strong men close to the fence to death, and the strong men behind tried to impact again, but the result was still the same, this group of people was completely desperate, and they began to flee in all directions, because the seemingly best back road had been cut off, so they scurried around like headless flies, This allowed Cao Zhang and his sergeants to kill more happily.

Cao Zhang held the ring-headed knife in both hands and slashed at people, and after a while, the battle robe was already stained with blood, and the beige cloak behind him had turned red because it had absorbed too much blood, and splashes of blood sprayed on his face, making Cao Zhang feel a little burning, and the heavy blood made him a little crazy.

The frightened eyes of the strong men made him a little excited, and the ring head knife swung faster and harder!

The brutal slaughter has been continuing, there are 500 soldiers in the middle of the mountain to form a defensive line so that the strong men have no way to escape, can only suffer helplessly, gradually, the shouts and screams of killing and screams decreased, and then fell silent, a night of fierce fighting, more than 6,000 strong men all died, Cao Zhang did not forget to let the sergeants make up on all the corpses, so as not to let someone pretend to be dead.

When all this was done, it was bright again, Cao Zhang asked Xiahou Heng to dismantle the fence of the grain, and then the sergeant went out and burned the grain and grass at the mouth of the valley, and only brought three days of dry food to Hanoi, and the 6,000 sergeant Cao Zhang stayed in this Hukou Valley, if someone said in the future that he slaughtered the people of Lin Xian, he would say this place, saying that these people did it, he Cao Zhang was just avenging the people of Lin Xian, and now there is no proof of death, as long as there is a substitute for the dead ghost, you can push it all away, It is not so easy to convict Cao Zhang, who is favored by the Son of Heaven, not to mention that Cao Cao is behind Cao Zhang.

Now Yuan Shao is far away from Yecheng, presumably has been detected by Cao Cao's scouts, so Cao Zhang's time is also a successful retreat, the fire of this grain and grass burning will definitely be seen by the locals, and when it reaches Yuan Shao's ears, Yuan Shao will definitely think that it is Gao Gan and Cao's army in short arms, whether he is standing still or sending troops to help, it is inevitable to run into Cao Cao's army, Cao Cao's deliberate arrangement is just to Yuan Shao out of Yecheng, so Cao Zhang thinks that when the two armies meet, Cao Cao will win.

On the way to Hanoi, Xiahou Heng asked Cao Zhang, "My lord, where should we retreat now?" Xiahou Heng asked very carefully, because the news of Lin Xian's slaughter by Yuan Jun must have spread, and if Cao Chang swaggered back to Hanoi with a group of people dressed in Yuan Jun's costumes to identify himself, he was afraid that he would fall into the mouth, and this question also expressed Xiahou Heng's concern.

Cao Zhang smiled and said: "You can't go anywhere, but you can go to Gongxian!" ”

Xiahou Heng's eyes lit up when he heard this, obviously, this is the best choice, Gongxian is still under the control of Zhang Yan, and he also knows Cao Zhang and others, as long as they make up for the military rations in Gongxian and then go to Huguan, then they can get rid of the tragedy with Lin Wei, this is indeed a good choice.

Cao Zhang then smiled and said, "Boquan, can you go to Gongxian in three days?" ”

Xiahou Heng replied: "Speed up the march, you will definitely be able to arrive!" At this time, he was also full of confidence, and his admiration for Cao Zhang deepened a little more, and the shadow caused to him by Cao Zhang's decision had disappeared. (To be continued.) (To be continued.) )
