Chapter 089 Xiahou Yuan is not a rabbit
But it was said that this Liu Cong was in the house of the hunter in the deep mountains and dense forests, hugging beauties, eating bear meat, and enjoying endless joy in sweat.
At the bottom of the magpie tail slope over there, Xiahou Yuan was riding on a blue-maned horse and was angry.
When he was angry, he was excusable, just now he sent more than 20 scout cavalry to go up to reconnoitre, who knew that he fell for Liu Cong's trick again, and in less than a meal, he was received by Zhou Cang with a horse, and not even a single horsehair was returned.
Besides, 15,000 men and horses, stationed in two places, hey, take out these 10,000, desperately attack the pass here, originally planned to conquer it in one fell swoop, but he didn't expect to attack for eight days, and he didn't even cross the magpie tail slope a step.
You must know that there are only 2,000 Jingzhou soldiers led by Zhou Cangxing Daorong on the Quewei Slope.
Two thousand Jingzhou soldiers, just say that they have to rely on their mouths, in Xiahou Yuan's opinion, this is simply a piece of cake, and you can eat it in a few bites.
Cao Bing's fierce offensive is psychologically speaking, Zhou Cang and his two thousand Jingzhou soldiers have already collapsed psychologically. However, he actually blocked the attack of his 10,000 elite soldiers for eight days.
Although Xiahou Yuan tried every possible measure, this Queweipo Pass was still in Zhou Cang's hands, which could not help but make Xiahou Yuan angry.
Not only anger, but also humiliation!
On the sixth day of the attack, the Jingzhou soldiers could no longer support it, but they didn't know that Liu Cong with thirty cavalrymen came down with a mighty pass, played a good game for himself, played enough, and swaggered back with his whole body, not a single hair hurt him, but he was killed and injured hundreds of brothers by him.
This kind of scumbag battle, Xiahou Yuan has never encountered it, can he not be angry? Can it not be humiliated? Can you not be resentful?
Whoever is Xiahou Yuan must also have this kind of psychological performance, unless he is a fool!
Therefore, Xiahou Yuan was resolute, reorganized his troops and horses, and gritted his teeth and scolded: "I just want to capture this Queweipo Pass!" It's done, and Liu Cong, the kid, is captured alive, so that I can get out of my mouth! ”
As a famous general in the late Han Dynasty, Xiahou Yuan is definitely not a fool.
At this time, he learned Liu Cong's hooligan methods, and knew Liu Cong's ruffian style, Xiahou Yuan thought: "Liu Cong is just a cynical brother, relying on nonsense, not according to the conventional cards, and successes in a row."
Collected 10,000 horses at Mushroom Ridge, and held on here for another six or seven days.
At this time, Liu Cong was already poor in donkey skills.
When I captured this Quewei Slope and marched to the foot of Xinye Castle, he had no charter.
See how I clean him up! ”
This local war on Queweipo, Xiahou Yuan thought so. As far as the entire battle situation is concerned, Xiahou Yuan is not without planning.
He thought: "Liu Cong crossed the Han River with 40,000 Jingzhou soldiers, and transferred Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei back to Xiangyang, so there will be no opponents for me here."
40,000 Jingzhou soldiers, 20,000 besieged Fancheng Caoren, 5,000 to guard Deng County, 5,000 to guard Xinye, and 2,000 to guard Queweipo here.
I have 15,000 elite soldiers here, and although more than 1,000 people have been killed or wounded, the entire combat strength has basically not been damaged.
Even when he marched to Xinye, Liu Cong was only seven or eight thousand Jingzhou soldiers. I'm afraid of a bird!
As long as Xinye is conquered in one go, the Jingzhou soldiers who surrounded Fancheng must panic, at that time, my soldiers pointed directly at Fancheng, Cao Ren was full of favor from the inside to kill, I rushed to kill outside, the Jingzhou soldiers naturally collapsed, and the siege of Fancheng could be solved immediately! ”
Judging from here, Xiahou Yuan's planning is not precise.
But there is one omission, that is, he despises Liu Cong.
Contempt is due to misunderstanding.
Xiahou Yuan always felt that Liu Cong was a stinky child, "It's just that I was negligent for a while, so that kid was cheaper twice."
Since then, I have marched step by step, after conquering the Quewei Slope, I have been fighting steadily, Xiaoxing has stayed overnight, and I have been defended tightly, what can Liu Cong do if I can cure me? ”
Xiahou Yuan deserved to be a famous general in the late Han Dynasty, and he lost two battles in a row, but he was still full of confidence.
Good Xiahou Yuan, this is not, at this time he has already organized a new offensive team: "Conquer Quewei Slope, march to Xinye, victory or defeat in one fell swoop!" ”
In fact, it is said that it is one move in one move, that is, two or three moves, and countless attacks on Queweipo, Xiahou Yuan still has to continue.
He had no way back, unless he thought he had failed and led his troops from here to retreat to Yuzhou.
However, this is not Xiahou Yuan's style.
With a famous general at the end of the Han Dynasty, with 15,000 elite soldiers, he can't even beat a small magpie tail slope, where does this call his old face?
Will Brother Cao Cao still like him from now on? Will you reuse him again?
How do you tell him to mix in Cao Bing and Cao General?
Failure is a small matter, but face is a big matter.
Therefore, Xiahou Yuan has no way to retreat, he is determined to capture this Quewei Slope, to attack Xinye, and to relieve the danger of Fancheng!
It is better to fail than not to attack!
Besides, Xiahou Yuan has always been full of confidence, he just despised Liu Cong: "Damn, a milky and dry ** hair, how much ability does he have?" Do you dare to come and fight me? ”
Driven by such a psychology, Xiahou Yuan began to attack Queweipo again.
Xiahou Yuan was attacking there at the foot of the Quewei Slope, and Daorong was also organizing an attack at the top of the Quewei Slope.
When Liu Cong was leaving, he instructed Zhou Cang: "Try your best to block the attack, see if it doesn't work, and follow the second step plan." ”
This second-step plan was designed by Zhou Cangxing Daorong before Liu Cong came over.
After Liu Cong came, Zhou Cang reported to him again, and got Liu Cong's approval.
Seeing that Cao Bing's offensive was counterattacked again, Zhou Cang stepped to the side of the war horse, turned around and ordered: "Xing Daorong continues to supervise Cao Bing and cover the retreat of other teams." ”
Zhou Cang shouted, and the machete on the horse observed the situation on the battlefield, directing the soldiers to retreat in an orderly manner.
Turning his face and instructing Xing Daorong: "Seeing that our army has passed the mountain mouth in front, you will lead the team to retreat."
I planted a flag there, and after Cao's soldiers occupied Queweipo, they did not dare to rashly pursue the enemy for a while. ”
After Xing Daorong agreed, Zhou Cangcai slowly retreated to Xinye City with the main force.
The four hundred people of the reserve team here were fighting with Cao Bing, and Xing Daorong saw that Zhou Cang's men and horses had turned the mountain mouth in front, so he gave an order and led the team to retreat in the direction of Xinye.
Cao Bing, who was attacking on the Shipo Road, saw that the Jingzhou soldiers had no resistance for a while, and they couldn't figure out the intentions of the Jingzhou soldiers, so they stopped attacking one after another and looked back at the commanding generals behind.
These generals also didn't figure it out for a while, so they shouted to the bottom of the mountain: "Commander, the Jingzhou soldiers suddenly ran away, I don't know why!" ”
Xiahou Yuan is a battle-hardened general in the end, as soon as he heard that the Jingzhou soldiers had run away, he understood with a slight estimate in his heart: "Damn, there are less than 1,000 Jingzhou soldiers, they can't resist the attack of our army at all, why don't you run?" Waiting to die?
What are you bastards doing, don't hurry up and attack it! ”
At this moment, the general Cao Bing, who was leading the troops on the top of the stone slope, also understood at once, and waved the guy and shouted: "What are you waiting for? Jingzhou soldiers ran away! Come on! ”
With such a greeting, the group of Cao soldiers also understood, and immediately came to the momentum, all of them screamed, and rushed to the top of the magpie tail slope, standing on the fortress at the top of the slope and shouting wildly, in order to celebrate the victory.
Xiahou Yuan saw him at the bottom of the slope, and ordered the deputy general with a straight face: "Immediately lead the inspector team up and smash these screaming guys down with sticks!"
They were ordered to immediately demolish the fortress, clear the barricades and open the way for the march of the main forces of our army. ”
The adjutant general led the inspection team up, and a stick was smashed down, and these complacent Cao soldiers, all with blue noses and swollen faces, bowed their heads and bent down to begin to dismantle the barricades.
It took less than an hour to open the Queweipo Road.
So, Xiahou Yuan rode a blue-maned horse, with a machete shining with cold light in his hand, and slowly climbed to the top of the magpie tail slope with the guards.
This guy has now won a battle, and he has a bit of satisfaction hidden in his heart.
When you climb to the top of the slope and look around, you have a sense of pride.
But this pride had just been generated, and before he had time to express it, Xiahou Yuan saw the mountain mouth in the direction of Jingzhou soldiers' escape, and the most important thing was to see the flag horns faintly exposed around the mountain mouth.
Xiahou Yuan sneered: "Damn." Come with me for this set. Do you think that my Xiahou Yuan is a rabbit who has never seen a fox? When I saw you planting two broken flags, I was afraid that you had ambushes.
Well, there are less than 1,000 of all the men and horses left in your Zhoucang, and I have killed hundreds of them, you don't have to run away if you have the ability, and you don't need to set up an ambush, just defend on the top of the magpie tail slope. ”089
