Chapter 584: Gao Shun died in battle
Gao Shun knew that Cao's troops were large, and if he delayed in Chihongkou for a while, Cheng Lian and Yin Li's army would be safer, so Gao Shun did not retreat but advanced, hoping that Cao's soldiers would rush all the way to the dense place. The soldiers trapped in the camp are all warriors who have followed Gao Shun for many years, and they are not afraid of danger, at this time they have already made up their minds to die, killing one is enough to kill two to earn one, so they are all not afraid of death, and every soldier who fell into the camp fell, at least ten Cao officers and soldiers also followed and fell, all the way forward, the corpses were blocked on the road, and the blood stained the earth.
Cao Cao stood above the horse pass and looked down, but saw that hundreds of foot soldiers of the Jing army were under the guidance of a general, rushing back and forth among the 10,000 troops, unstoppable, so he asked left and right: "The enemy general in the formation, but is Gao Shun?" ”
Those who knew about it immediately reported to Cao Cao: "This person is Gao Shun, and his seven hundred dead soldiers are all broken, and every attack is broken, and it is called 'trapped camp'." ”
Cao Cao nodded and said: "Gao Shun is a real tiger general, and the trapping camp is really worthy of its reputation!" ”
Cao Cao's praise spread to Xiahoudun, Le Jin, Xu Chu three people, the three generals were ashamed, with the ability of the three generals and dozens of times the opponent's strength, they had not won Gao Shun and hundreds of people in the camp for so long, they were embarrassed and lost home, so the three of them no longer dared to fake the hands of others, the three of them went together, surrounded Gao Shun in the core, and were eager to capture Gao Shun. Cao Bing was so desperate that he didn't dare to slack off, besieged on all sides, and fought desperately.
No matter how brave Gao Shun is, he is difficult to defeat with two fists and six hands, and no matter how brave he is in the camp, it is difficult to defeat Cao Bing, who is like ants and locusts. Gao Shun was sweating through heavy armor and was injured many times all over his body. Blood-stained robes. For every soldier who fell into the camp, there would be one less soldier for 700 dead, and even if Cao's soldiers fell by ten, more soldiers would flock to the front, killing them endlessly.
This is destined to be a tragic song belonging to the trapped camp, in a desperate situation, no one flinched, no one was afraid, they defended the dignity and pride of the trapped camp with blood, and pathos was written all over their faces. Perseverance is engraved in their hearts. In the bloody battle that lasted for more than an hour, 700 soldiers who fell into the camp fell on this hot land in Xuzhou one after another, and none of them survived.
Cao Jun also paid a heavy price for it. Nearly 7,000 people were killed in battle. The ratio of deaths on both sides was as high as 10 to 1. This is undoubtedly an appalling number. With the fall of the last soldier in the trapped camp, Cao Bing also stopped attacking, and their eyes were met. It is not only horror, but also admiration, and even if a proud warrior on the battlefield falls, he will win the respect of his opponent.
Gao Shun fought desperately with one enemy and three, watching the brothers who were trapped in the camp fall down one by one, but he couldn't do anything, his heart was dripping blood, and his body was bleeding, but the belief that life would never stop fighting has always supported him, and before the last drop of blood in his body was shed, he Gao Shun would never admit defeat.
Cao Cao ordered to drink back Xiahou Xuan, Le Jin, Xu Chu and other three, the three generals had already done their best to rescue, seeing that Gao Shun was hung in many places, and he could be captured within a few combinations, Cao Cao actually asked them to stop, it was really unwilling, but no one dared to disobey Cao Cao's order, and they all retreated to the side.
As soon as he relaxed from the fierce battle, Gao Shun felt that his body was about to fall apart, he was dizzy, and almost fell off the horse, he forced a breath, stood on the ground with a gun, reluctantly sat still, looked at Cao Cao coldly, and said nothing.
Cao Cao stepped forward, smiled, and said: "Yanzhou has been farewell for ten years, and I can't imagine that General Gao's courage is still the same as it was back then, he is really a hero, and Cao admires it." ”
Gao Shun smiled coldly and said, "It's a pity that Puyang's fire is not big, and it hasn't burned you, a national thief!" ”
Xu Chu was furious, raised his knife to cut, and shouted: "The people who are about to die dare to speak wildly, insult the King of Wei, and look for death!" ”
Cao Cao immediately stopped Xu Chu drinking, and said to Gao Shun: "General Gao is difficult not to miss the old feelings, but Cao is eager to love talents, today General Gao is in death, as long as you are willing to surrender, Cao will definitely be a high-ranking official, and will never be inferior to what Liu Ze gave you." ”
Gao Shun laughed and said sharply: "Cao thief! Today, there is only Gao Shun who died in battle, and there will never be Gao Shun who surrendered, you have to talk in vain again, look at the gun! Gao Shunqiang took a breath of true qi, rode forward, picked up the steel gun in his hand, and used the last trace of strength in his body to sprint towards Cao Cao's horse.
Cao Cao in order to persuade Gao Shun to surrender, hit the horse forward, and Gao Shun is only ten zhang away, he only thought that Gao Shun was exhausted, has long been unable to fight again, did not expect Gao Shun to do the battle of the trapped beast, hurriedly turned the horse's head, wanted to turn around and escape. The guards around Cao Cao had already opened their crossbows to be on guard, and as soon as they saw Gao Shun pounce on him, they immediately opened their crossbows and released arrows, and dozens of crossbow arrows penetrated Gao Shun's chest in unison, Gao Shun looked up to the sky and sprayed a mouthful of blood, shouting: "Kill the thief!" "He fell off his horse and remained still.

In the middle of the night, in the school field in the south of Wuchang City, starry, Liu Ze, Zhuge Liang, Jia Xu, Zhao Yun and others were looking forward to it, waiting for Huang Zhong's brigade to return. According to the report of the sentinel horse that came in advance, Huang Zhong will lead a large group of men and horses to arrive in Wuchang at midnight, the battle situation in Xuzhou is urgent, Liu Ze and Zhuge Liang and others discussed, and decided that after the first army and the eighth army arrived in Wuchang, they did not stop at any time, and quickly opened to Xuzhou, so Liu Ze and Zhuge Liang, Jia Xu, and Zhao Yun went to the school field in the south of the city to wait for the arrival of Huang Zhong's army.
Huang Zhong also received Liu Ze's order, compressed the original five-day itinerary to four days, and rushed back to Wuchang in a hurry. When he arrived at the southern campus of Wuchang City, it was three o'clock in the morning, and Huang Zhong immediately reported to Liu Zeyu.
Liu Ze didn't say much politely, and ordered to order the troops to be ordered immediately, and after a short rest, he set off on time.
It was the night starry light, suddenly a meteor crossed the sky, fell in the east, everyone was surprised, Zhuge Liang bent his fingers, exclaimed: "The east lord is a general, or should be in Xuzhou." ”
Liu Ze was also uneasy, so he ordered the army to stop, and at dawn, there were flying pigeons in Xuzhou to report to work. The letter was written by the deputy governor Zang Ba, the book said that Cao Cao took the Huafei trail, sneak attack Pengcheng, Mi Fang Fu Shiren surrendered the city without a fight, the governor Gao Shun wanted to counterattack Pengcheng, but he was ambushed by Cao Cao in the mouth of Chihong, in order not to destroy the whole army, Gao Shun ordered Cheng Lian Yin Li to break through first, he led 700 traps after the camp was broken, and Cao Cao was heavily surrounded, and he would rather die than surrender, Gao Shun and his subordinates 700 people were all killed in battle. Zang Ba was also deeply surrounded by Cao's army in Langya, detoured to the East China Sea and joined the Chenglian Yin Li soldiers, and went south to defend Xiapi, and the four counties of Xubei Pengcheng, Xiaopei, Langya, and the East China Sea have all fallen.
Liu Ze suddenly poured like a basin of cold water, his eyes welled up with tears, and he lost his voice: "I lost my literacy, like losing an arm." "The four counties of Xuzhou were lost, Liu Ze didn't feel much distressed, how could the generals be worried about the gains and losses of a city and a place, but Gao Shun died in battle, it was a great loss for Liu Ze, thousands of troops are easy to get, and a general is hard to find, not to mention a famous general like Gao Shun, Liu Ze can't help but feel heartache and grief.
Zhuge Liang comforted: "The matter has come here, the lord should mourn by the way." ”
Liu Ze shook his head and said: "It's me who is too careless, in the past few years, Pinghuai has broken Wu to take Jing Zhanjiao, and the journey has been smooth, thinking that the world has been in his hands, and he has neglected to guard against Cao Cao, which has caused today's disaster, I am sorry for Wentong, I am sorry for the seven hundred sons who fell into the camp, and I am sorry for the soldiers who died in Xuzhou!" ”
At this time, Mi Zhu ran over, knelt at Liu Ze's feet, cried loudly, and said: "Lord, my brother Mi Fang surrendered to the enemy, and led the defeat of Xuzhou. ”
Liu Ze was in a very heavy mood, Mi Fang surrendered to the enemy, but it was really unexpected by him, he thought that the tragedy of history would not be repeated in his hands, but he didn't expect this qiē to come so suddenly, Liu Ze helped Mi Zhu up, and said: "Brother doesn't have to be sad, Mi Fang has had, and he is only one person, what does it have to do with the Mi family?" If you really want to say that you are responsible, it should be me, as a brother-in-law, who neglected to care for Mi Fang, which led to today's disaster, and my brother does not have to blame himself.
