Chapter 374: The Adversary of Fate
The two armies fought, and the Cao army was superior in numbers and was unable to break through the Tianhai camp.
Looking at the battlefield, Guo Jia frowned.
He gradually realized that the situation was not very favorable for Cao Jun.
"Zihe!" Looking at Cao Chun on the side, Guo Jia ordered: "Tiger and leopard ride out to fight!" ”
Cao Chun responded and beckoned the tiger and leopard to ride out of the Chinese army.
Seeing the tiger and leopard riding out of the camp, Yuan Xu said: "The Tianhai cavalry is out to fight!" General Gao, this battle is up to you."
Gao Guandian gathered five hundred heavenly sea cavalry and rushed towards the tiger and leopard cavalry.
The Tianhai cavalry went into battle, and Cao Chun, who had confidence in the tiger and leopard cavalry, was of course not to be outdone!
Not knowing the details of the enemy, he shouted loudly: "The day has come for the tiger and leopard to ride and make meritorious contributions!" Step forward with someone! ”
Six hundred tigers and leopards shouted in unison, riding their horses to meet the Tianhai cavalry and kill.
Two cavalry teams charged each other.
Not far from them was the infantry of both sides who were fighting.
The war horses that rushed to the front collided violently, accompanied by the neighing of the war horses and the loud sound of the collision of blades and shields, the Tianhai cavalry and the tiger and leopard cavalry, the fateful enemies, launched the first battle since the establishment of the system!
The cavalry staggered, brandishing their halberds and stabbing each other.
The tigers and leopards have always been high-spirited, and many of them are centurions selected by Cao Chun from his army.
In the Cao Jun sequence, they have a transcendent status, and of course, they also have extremely strong combat effectiveness!
Before the charge, the tiger and leopard cavalry did not pay attention to the Tianhai cavalry at all.
Many people even thought that the cavalry in front of them in royal blue robes could be defeated with just one charge.
It turns out they were wrong!
And it's very wrong!
The Tianhai cavalry had more than 100 fewer people than the tiger and leopard cavalry, and the two armies did not fall behind in the slightest.
From time to time, people on both sides were stabbed by the enemy and fell from their horses, but the battle was always deadlocked.
Cao Chun and Gao Ran fought together.
After all, Gao Ran is a Hebei court pillar. Although Cao Chun is brave, where is his opponent.
Fortunately, the two sides were in a scuffle, and some Haw Par riders could take the opportunity to step forward to help. Otherwise, it will only be dozens of times, and Cao Chun will be beheaded by Gao Ran.
The two sides engaged in a decisive battle.
Meanwhile. A team of about 100 people sneaked behind Cao Jun.
They were dressed in black, like a group of ghosts active in the daytime, and their bodies were sturdy and jumped out of the distance after a few leaps.
It was Ma Yi who led this team.
Cao's army was stationed in Cangting, and the grain and grass were stored in Guancheng.
Guancheng is only a small county, and the defenders are only a few hundred.
Because of the grain and grass in storage, Guo Jia did not dare to despise the transfer of hundreds of elite Cao troops to cooperate with the county soldiers to guard.
In addition, he also specially arranged two Cao generals to guard the town.
These two have followed Cao Cao for many years, experienced the sour jujube alliance, welcomed the emperor, and can be regarded as Cao Cao's henchmen.
One of them is named Wang Fei. Make a steel gun with eight points.
The other person is named Sun Yang, and he made two wide-backed plate axes on the battlefield.
Although the two are not famous generals, their martial arts are good.
Guo Jia was relieved to hand over the grain and grass in the city to them to guard, just because the two of them were not good at martial arts, but they were also meticulous.
The Cao army fought a decisive battle with the Tianhai battalion, and the defense of the city was more rigorous than before.
Sun Yang consulted with Wang Fei and announced the door ban!
Those who are inside the city are allowed to go out, but those outside the city are not allowed to enter.
But no one who goes out of the city shall return until the war is settled.
With this ban. The people were not allowed to return, and no one left the city easily.
led the night to Guancheng, and Ma Yi soon discovered that the situation was not right.
After a long period of training, the night stab is a hidden thing. Each Nightthorn has an extremely keen sense of smell for the situation.
Lying dormant outside the city, looking at the closed gates of the city, a night thorn whispered, "The gates are closed. There are no people coming in and out, and it is really difficult to get in. ”
Ma Yi said: "Gongzi ordered us to burn grain and grass. What would happen if my uncle received the order? ”
"The city is just a small place, and General Ma may break through." Another night thorn answered.
"A certain uncle. There is no other way. Ma Yi said: "I still have to sneak in." ”
"The gates are closed, how do you sneak in?"
"Watergate!" Ma Yi said: "Although the city gate is closed, the water gate is open, and we will sneak in from the water gate, and it will be possible." ”
Nightthorns looked at each other and nodded.
Outside the city is a small mountain forest.
Between the mountains and the city, there is a flat land that is not very wide.
It is extremely difficult for people to hide on flat ground.
At the head of the city, Cao Jun looked around vigilantly, and it was not easy to lurk at the water gate.
After observing the city for a while, Ma Yi whispered: "Break it into pieces, act carefully!" ”
Night Thorns are no ordinary soldiers, and they don't need to explain too much to them, as long as they talk about their travels, they probably know what to do.
Nearly 100 night thorns gathered hay from all around, and quickly tied the grass into a straw mat and draped it over their bodies.
Leaving the dormant ground, they have become one with their surroundings.
From the top of the city, you can only see that there are many overgrown hills full of weeds in the clearing.
The hillock moved extremely slowly towards the foot of the ramparts.
The Cao army at the head of the city did not notice the existence of the night thorns, and Ma Yi and the night thorns of about 100 people approached the city wall under their noses in broad daylight.
Leaning under the city wall, Nightthorn did not get up, and still crawled towards the water gate.
The water gates of the city are all at the foot of the city walls, which are connected to the sewers in the city.
It is from here that the wastewater dumped by the soldiers and civilians in the city comes out.
There is some garbage floating in the water, and although it does not smell, it is not like a river that makes people easily urge to jump.
What's more, it's the depths of winter at this time.
The water was flowing, but it was bitterly cold.
Squatting in front of the water gate, Ma Yi nodded to the night thorn.
Everyone looked solemn and waited for orders.
The first to enter the water, the icy water suddenly made Ma Yileng's teeth tremble.
Gritting his steel teeth, he plunged into the sewage.
The Night Thorns followed them down into the water and sneaked into the city through the water gate.
Unless there is an enemy attacking the city, the water gate will not be closed, in order to make the sewer sewage flow out more smoothly.
Ma Yi and the others did not show up, and Cao Jun, who was guarding the water gate, did not expect that someone would sneak in from the water in the bitter winter.
Swimming through the water gate, Ma Yi was already in the city when he poked his head out.
Climbing onto the shore, a cold wind blew, and he shivered subconsciously.
The night thorns who followed ashore were just like him, and everyone was blue from the cold.
"Take some of the people's clothes and put them on, and then do it!" Ma Yi whispered to everyone.
The Night Thorn immediately broke into pieces and sprang into the alleys of the city.
Guancheng stores grain and grass, but Tianhai Camp is far away from here.
The people could not go out, but inside the city it was the same as before.
In the market, shops are open as usual, hawkers hawk on the roadside, and there are many pedestrians.
Entering an alley with two night thorns, and when they arrived at the door of a house, Ma Yi glanced at the night thorns behind him.
Nightthorn took out his short sword, inserted it through the crack in the door, and opened the door with a single blow.
"Who?" Only then did he enter the room, and a frightened man came out of the inner room.
A night thorn stepped forward, his sword resting on his neck, and said in a low voice, "Don't make a sound! (To be continued.) )
