Chapter 157 Huaxiong fought bravely against Zhang Xun, and Zhang Xun pretended to send Ji Ling

Hua Xiong and Hao Yin led 10,000 elite soldiers to investigate the enemy situation outside Xia Cai City.

I didn't want to be discovered by the defenders of the city, so I reported to the general in the city - Zhang Xun, who had just lost the army.

Upon learning of this, Zhang Xun was overjoyed and immediately ordered 500 cavalry and rushed out of the city.

Hao Yin was about to discuss with Hua Xiong the strategy of breaking the city, when he suddenly saw the gate of Xia Cai City open, rushed out a sentry horse, and hurriedly shouted: "Not good! The enemy has spotted us and is leading their cavalry to come! ”

Hua Xiong followed his finger and saw the dusty appearance of the city, so he said: "Zhang Xun is also a character, and he actually led hundreds of cavalry to attack!" It seems that this person is not a mediocre person. If these hundreds of cavalry take advantage of this time to rush into our army camp, it will definitely cause chaos in our army, and as soon as the military horses in the city come out, our army will be defeated! Hurry back to the camp and come to the aid of the cavalry! A certain temporary introduction of more than 50 guards to ride around with it! ”

"...... this?" Hao Yin is about to fight.

Hua Xiong glared at him and said, "This is a military order, you should come quickly!" ”

"No!" Thinking of the urgency of the military situation, Hao Yin turned over his horse and galloped away.

Hua Xiong looked at the fifty guards behind him and said, "Sons, the time has come for you and me to make meritorious contributions!" ”

"Follow the general to the death!" Fifty guards shouted in unison, sword in hand.

Looking at the enemy army that was getting closer and closer, Hua Xiong said: "The enemy is outnumbered, and the only way to fight is to fight with a battle formation!" You will take a certain formation as the leader and form a triangular battle array! ”

"No!" Fifty guards quickly assembled in formation and stood behind Hua Xiong.

Seeing that the enemy was overwhelming, Hua Xiong did not dare to move easily, and immediately waited quietly with a horizontal sword.

More than 30 zhang apart, the enemy general stood on his horse and stopped the charge!

What a fighter! He wore a purple gold and bright silver helmet, a blue battle robe, lined with iron and bright silver armor, and carried a silver spear in his palm.

"Humph! Huaxiong, who is so bold, dares to invade the territory lightly?! He let out a loud shout.

"Who's coming?" Hua Xiong asked.

"Zhang Xun, a general under the command of the former general Yuan Gong, is also!"

"You're Zhang Xun?" Hua Xiong secretly said in his heart: It is said that this Zhang Xun is on par with Ji Ling, and in a certain opinion, this person must be much stronger than Ji Ling.

"You have been surrounded by a certain place, why don't you get off your horse and surrender to avoid the pain of flesh and skin?" Zhang Xun said with a smile.

Hua Xiong sneered and said, "Joke! How many hundred cavalry can you have? ”

"Don't you think that more than 50 people under your command are enough to compete with a certain 500 cavalry?!" Zhang Xun couldn't help but sneer.

"Let's talk about it after the battle!" Hua Xiong saw that the opponent's cavalry was not in order to march, and he was pushing back and forth between the stops, so he knew that his soldiers' combat strength was far inferior to his own, and suddenly shouted an order, "Kill!" ”

"Kill!" Fifty soldiers shouted in unison, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, which startled Zhang Xun and the others.

Hua Xiong and the others were like tigers descending from the mountain, and went straight to Zhang Xun's camp.

Zhang Xun stood in front of Hua Xiong with his gun and fought with Hua Xiong. Fifty guards were ordered by Hua Xiong, and the three of them formed a small battle formation, and each other took Hua Xiong as the leader to form a large triangular battle formation, attacking and defending one after another, and even beheaded dozens of people under Zhang Xun's command.

Today's plan is very critical, Hua Xiong has to hold back the enemy on the one hand, and on the other hand, he has to preserve his strength, so defeating Zhang Xun has become the first priority.

However, this Zhang Xun is really shrewd, knowing that he is invincible to Hua Xiong, he actually attacked Hua Xiong with the guards around him, but he fought against Hua Xiong's triangle battle formation steadily!

Under the effect of the battle array, Huaxiong's subordinates were really brave, and after several charges, they actually killed no less than 100 of Zhang Xun's subordinates.

However, the heroes are hard to defeat with four hands, and the tigers are still afraid of wolves.

A few charges down, and some of Hua Xiong's subordinates already hung up the lottery.

After a dozen charges, there were less than two hundred of Zhang Xun's subordinates; Hua Xiong's subordinates are no more than twenty capable fighters, and even Hua Xiong has a color on his body, and his battle robe has been stained red with blood.

Zhang Xun was a little annoyed and angry, and was about to lead his troops to charge again, but he saw the dust in the distance, shouting and killing, knowing that his rescuers were coming.

Looking back again, I saw that a sentry horse also rushed out from the direction of the city, and the generals led by Ji Ling came to help!

Knowing that it would be useless to fight again, Zhang Xun pulled the horse with a gun, stopped the soldiers and horses, and said to Huaxiong: "Jun Zhi is a famous general, and when you see it now, it is like a legend!" A certain self-ashamed is not as good! After speaking, he led his troops to retreat.

Han Xian, Yang Feng and others escorted Zhang Xun back to the city.

Hua Xiong breathed a sigh of relief this time, straddled the long knife across the war horse, sighed, and said, "General Hao, bring the dead brother back to the camp!" ”

"Yes!" Hao Yin agreed, and then ordered the soldiers to carry the dead soldiers back to the camp.

Back in the camp, Hao Yin had the fallen soldiers placed on the firewood.

Hua Xiong, who was bandaged, personally held the torch, lit the pyre, and poured the wine on the firewood: "Brothers, the heroic spirit is far away, and it is easy to go all the way." A certain Huaxiong sends you all away! When he finished speaking, he was full of grief and wept bitterly to worship the dead.

Hao Yin and the others were all moved.

The twenty surviving guards were even more grieved.

After the worship was over, Hua Xiong went to the twenty people: "From now on, you will be a brother of so-and-so, and a certain will be shared with you!" ”

"Meet my brother!" Twenty people knelt before them.

Hua Xiong mixed with everyone and said: "You and others are all serving the main communiqué, and a certain is also serving the main communiqué." Now that they are gone, we still need to fight again! The enemy city is in front of you, and in the coming day, you will be able to break it! ”

"May my brother break it to avenge the past!"

"May it be broken with the general!"

……

Huaxiong is called Shagn General, not without basis.

After his call, more than 10,000 soldiers were moved, excited, and ......

Hao Yin wasted no time in asking, "General, what should I do next?" ”

"The enemy's city is thin, but there are still more than 20,000 soldiers and horses in the city! The lord once said that the best policy is to surrender the soldiers without a fight! Hua Xiong was not carried away by grief, but said soberly, "Before leaving, didn't Mr. Gongtai give the general a tip?" Why don't you take it out and take a look?! ”

"Ahh By the way, so-and-so forgot about it! Hao Yin then remembered.

Back in his tent, he took the bag and watched it with Hua Xiong.

There is a note in the bag that reads: The remnants of the army are afraid of fatigue, and they will be able to defeat the enemy in public!

After reading it, Hao Yin looked at Hua Xiong and asked, "Are the remnants tired of the soldiers?" What does this mean? ”

Hua Xiong replied: "Zhang Xun and Ji Ling's new defeat is a remnant!" The intention of a certain Guan Gongtai Mr. is to attack the city with the pretense of disturbing the enemy and exhausting the enemy, and then he will be victorious! ”

"In that case, so-and-so will lead troops to attack the enemy city first!" Hao Yin then asked for a fight.

Hua Xiong waved his hand and said with a smile: "There are many ways to disturb the enemy, why rush to fight?" Tonight thou shalt have fifty drummers and ten catapults in front of the enemy city, and struck drums and stones at the third watch! ”

"Good!" Hao Yin agreed, and went down to make arrangements.

Huaxiong's side was preparing tightly, and Zhang Xun was not idle.

Gathering the generals, Zhang Xun asked: "Our army was defeated at the beginning, the enemy army was more than 100,000 overwhelmed, and the lord's army was delayed!" ”

Among the generals, only Ji Ling was no longer there, and Chen Lan and Chen Ji brothers were led by Qiao Mao, looking at Qiao Mao and not speaking.

Yang Feng and Han Xian are in the same vein as Zhang Xun, so he said: "Now that the military situation is critical, General Ji Ling can't help but be sick, why is it?" ”

Qiao Mao countered: "General Zicong led the troops to save the marshal, and his injuries have recovered!" If you think something is untrue, you can visit the house! ”

Zhang Xun didn't seem to hear them arguing, and pressed his sword back and forth in the hall, thinking.

Suddenly, he said to a few people: "I asked you and others to come to discuss the military plane, not to listen to you and others arguing here. In the last battle alone, our army lost more than 20,000 men. The enemy is far superior to me, and for the sake of now, we can only hold on to the city! Waiting for reinforcements from the Lord! ”

As he spoke, he sighed, feeling quite regretful for the battle of intentions at that time.

With a momentary will, he invited the general to conquer Xuzhou.

But Liu Bei is far from being his enemy?! What's more, with an army of 100,000 and more than 1 times the strength, how can it be resisted by its own 50,000 soldiers and horses?

As the saying goes, smart one, confused for a while!

Now, instead of capturing Xuzhou, the city has been besieged by others!

He was annoyed, but he thought of Ji Ling again, thought about it, and said to everyone: "Go and see General Ji Ling!" When he had finished speaking, he asked the soldiers to lead the way.

Everyone looked at each other, each with a ghost.

Ji Ling was resting in the bedroom of the house, he seemed to be very injured, he was lying on the bed, with a pillow on his chin, holding the book and reading the soldier's battle strategy.

The next person came to report, and when he knew that Zhang Xun was coming, he got out of bed and greeted him out of the door.

"Zicong, listening to what Chen and Qiao said to the generals, you are injured and committed. So bring them to visit! Zhang Xun held Ji Ling's hands and said.

Seeing Zhang Xun's seemingly sincere appearance, Ji Ling had an indescribable feeling in his heart, so he said: "Thanks to the general's love, a little injury will be taken care of for some time!" ”

A gleam flashed in Zhang Xun's eyes, and he may have returned to normal, but he listened to his words: "Now that the enemy is pressing the border, the battle situation is quite critical. A certain person wants to make someone report to the Lord, but after thinking about it, he can't choose one. I wonder if the general has any suggestions? ”

So that's what happened?!

You don't have a candidate?! Isn't that what you want me to go? Just say no!

Thinking about it, Ji Ling laughed: "Such an important matter is naturally entrusted to important people." If the general can trust so-and-so, he will hand it over to so-and-so! A certain will also take the opportunity to nourish the body. ”

"Very good!" After speaking, the two of them laughed out loud as if they were in harmony.

Ji Ling asked people to prepare paper, ink, pens, and inkstones.

Immediately, Zhang Xun wrote a letter to Yuan Shu and entrusted Ji Ling.

Taking advantage of the night, Ji Ling took the servants and left quietly.

Seeing Ji Ling leaving, a sneer appeared at the corner of Zhang Xun's mouth, and he said to Chen Lan and Chen Ji: "You and you are on duty tonight, you must be vigilant, and there must be no mistakes!" ”

"No!" As soon as Ji Ling left, the Chen family brothers naturally became honest.

They never thought that at the third watch in the middle of the night, Huaxiong would lead troops to attack the city.

As soon as they fell asleep, Chen Lan and Chen Ji were awakened by the sound of drums outside the city, hurriedly dressed in clothes, and came to the city.

The boulder roaring from the opposite side frightened the soldiers in the city to cry and cry for their mother, and it became a mess.

At night, Chen Lan and Chen Ji did not dare to go out of the city, so they had to make the soldiers take cover to dodge, and shoot arrows into the darkness from time to time.

When all the soldiers on duty, the soldiers who were not on duty, as well as Zhang Xun, Qiao Mao, Yang Feng, Han Xian and others were alarmed, and when the people in the city were boiling, the drums outside the city were silent.
