Chapter 92 The Burning of the Camp

"There's no need for this, it's better to leave a few people on patrol, what everyone needs is to have a good rest, and fight tomorrow, so be it." Fan Chou waved his hand, and then took his own soldiers to the big tent of the Chinese army. He didn't think that this Zhang Chao would have to play the same trick for the second time. Having said that, with what just happened, those patrolmen should also be careful.

Fan Chou went back to rest, and the other soldiers also went back to rest. Qu Chang, who was in charge of patrolling, had really become a lot more cautious. Then when an hour passed, and nearly an hour passed, and nothing happened, he also relaxed his vigilance, in his opinion, the harassment should not be happening, after all, in an hour the sky will be dawn, at that time everyone will get up, who will come to find trouble?

But what this Qu Chang didn't know was that at this time, Zhang Chao was leading his 3,500 men to surround them.

Zhang Chao was followed by Dian Wei, who had killed the Quartet just now.

Dian Wei returned to Zhang Chao's tent covered in blood, and then fell to his knees with a thud. claimed that he had not completed the task, had not killed Fan Chou, and had not even met once.

originally thought that he would come back without completing the task, and Zhang Chao would have to be sarcastic even if he let him go. never thought that Zhang Zhiyuan would pick him up, ignoring the undried blood on his body and staining his white clothes, and said: "What a man, what a hero." Entering the enemy camp alone, killing hundreds of enemies and retreating, it is really a tiger general! ”

Zhang Chao's performance made Dian Wei's face flush and said: "The lord Mo said, in the end, Wei didn't complete the task." ”

"Hey, why didn't you complete the task well, you have done a good job. Come, let us go into the house and speak. Zhang Chao then laughed with Dian Wei's hand and entered the military tent.

In the military tent, after listening to Zhang Chao's narration, Dian Wei realized that he had rushed to kill Fan Chou's enemy camp just to prepare for the next plan. With the episode just now, Fan Chou will look down on Zhang Chao even more, thinking that he only dares to attack secretly, and does not dare to become an enemy, so that the defense will definitely be lax, which will create an opportunity for the army to strike with all its might.

Knowing that he was really meritorious, Dian Wei was happy, and when the time came, he followed Zhang Chao out with an army of thousands of people, and the goal was Fan Chou's military camp.

There is still an hour before the sky is about to light, and at this time, the entire barracks of the Xiliang Army have fallen into silence, and even the patrolling soldiers have begun to get sleepy at this time. By this time, no one thought that there would be any more enemies.

However, just when everyone thought it was impossible, a team of elite soldiers of about 100 people appeared around the camp.

As soon as these people appeared, they first approached the patrol squads, and then before they could figure out what was going on, and some of them were still walking with their eyes closed, they had their throats cut and became unjustly killed.

Groups of patrol soldiers were assassinated. Waiting for the captain Qu who led the team later, he found out that the situation was wrong, and when he couldn't see a subordinate team patrolling for a long time, a firelight suddenly flashed in front of his eyes and shot directly on a military tent beside him.

It was a bow and arrow stained with oil.

This routine of fire attack, Zhang Chao is not the first time to do it, and he has been prepared for a long time, since once the fire starts, it will show a continuous trend, and one rocket after another will fall like rain.

A whole thousand archers, each with ten rockets, shot them all, which is a full 10,000. Even if some shots miss, the number of shots that may be shot is still extremely impressive.

Suddenly the fire started, and Qu Chang knew that the situation was not good. Just as he was about to shout, there were many shouts of killing on the east, west, and north sides. There seemed to be countless black torrents pouring over.

"Run." Qu Chang stopped shouting, and at this moment there was only the word "escape" left in his brain. Without knowing how many enemies there were, unprepared, and in an environment full of fire, he knew he was going to lose.

Compared with Xiao Qu Chang, who has been sober all the time, many Xiliang soldiers don't know what is going on, but there is a fire in front of them.

Waiting for the military tent, these soldiers hurriedly got up, put on their coats and walked out of the camp tent, facing Xu Chu from the west, Zhao Yun from the east, and Dian Wei from the north.

The three members were all tiger generals, and once they handed the weapons in their hands forward, it was the moment when the life of a Xiliang soldier was ended.

is already inferior to others, and in addition, it is impossible to form an effective defense, so the next thing to do is to flee everywhere, hoping to find a way to live.

The situation of the main general Fan Chou was also not much better, first he was awakened by a burst of firelight, and then there was a shout of killing in his ears, which made him jump up from the bed, and after shouting that it was not good, he didn't even wear armor, and rushed out of the camp.

The soldiers had already brought the horses and came to Fan Chou's side, waiting for the order of the commander.

"Withdraw, retreat to the south." After hearing several of his young generals talk about the situation in front of him, he really ordered to retreat south, because only there was no shadow of the enemy army in sight.

He didn't care about anything, but after taking the weapon and a spear he had with him, Fan Chou jumped on his horse and retreated south with his guards and some soldiers who had fled to his side.

The main general fled, and he didn't care about the soldiers below. Under the lack of organization, the resistance of the Xiliang soldiers was even weaker, and some of the Xiliang soldiers who had lost confidence and did not want to die simply gave up resistance, knelt on the ground, and raised the weapons in their hands.

The firelight everywhere, the shadows were heavy, and the fighting spirit of the Xiliang soldiers was disintegrated, except for being burned to death by fire and being killed under the chaos, the remaining Xiliang soldiers all knelt down and surrendered. It's not that they don't have blood, it's really forced by the situation that they can't resist.

"Huh! Where did Fan Chou's guy go, and I should take his head back? Dian Wei, who was carrying a pair of iron halberds, walked into the crowd with a team of soldiers, searched around for Fan Chou's figure, and after not finding it, he couldn't help but ask loudly.

"General, Fan Chou fled to the south with a group of personal soldiers." A company commander of Zhang Chao's army, that is, the captain of the hundred-man team, came to Dian Wei's side and reported.

"What? Went to the south. Oh, this is cheaper than Lu Bu's house. Hearing this result, Dian Wei couldn't help but shake his head with some remorse.

The great achievement can't be done, so he said to the people around him: "Quick, follow me to the stable." ”

"General, General Zhao has already gone there in advance, I'm afraid it's a little late to go now." It was still the company commander who reported loudly.

"What? Zilong grabbed my head, oops, it's all my fault, just trying to kill a happy, I really forgot the main goal, that's it, that's it, then I'll count the prisoners here. Hearing that it would take a step at night to even want to grab the horse, Dian Wei gave up the idea of taking great credit.

Zhao Yun was in the stables at this time, because of the suddenness of the attack, Fan Choujun, who originally had a thousand horses, now had 800 horses left in the stable. Looking at these healthy horses with good foot strength, Zhao Yun was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

Zhang Chao had promised him before, allowing him to establish a cavalry team of his own. People can choose at will, but the problem of this horse is really to be solved by itself.

This time it was difficult for Zhao Yun, he knew the value of the horses under the war horse. He himself didn't have much money, so how could he get more horses, couldn't he rob them?

Regarding this matter, Zhao Yun asked Xu Shu, one of the military advisors. The answer given by Xu Yuanzhi is, can't you grab it if you can't afford it? As long as it is obtained by military exploits, presumably the lord will definitely allocate some to you, so that after accumulation, if you have horses, won't you naturally have cavalry?

In this way, Zhao Yun knew in his heart that he had already targeted Fan Chou's Xiliang horse in this battle, and when he saw the overall situation, he first brought people to the stable. After seeing that eight hundred horses had been captured, he couldn't help laughing, as if he saw that the cavalry corps was hopeful.

Zhao Yun was enjoying himself here, and next to another forest ten miles away from here, the first fierce general, Lu Bu, was also baring his fangs, waiting for the prey to take the bait.

Since he came to Hongnong County, Lu Bu has been hidden in the snow. It's because his name is so big that it's hard not to be recognized once he shows it.

Lu Bu, who had been hiding among ordinary soldiers, thought that this time there was no credit for himself, and he couldn't help but feel depressed. When he came out this time, he promised Diao Chan that he would definitely make great achievements, but now he can't even show up, so what credit can he talk about?

Lu Bu, who was depressed, was suddenly called out by Zhang Chao at night, and then was given five hundred Zhang family light horses, and was given the important task of taking down Fan Chou's head.

Zhang Chao had only one order, that is, not to allow a Xiliang soldier to escape, otherwise, it would not be considered a great achievement.

There are 7,000 Xiliang soldiers, if you want to take down all of them, it is obviously difficult to block the news. It's just that Lu Bu didn't even hesitate after hearing this, so he agreed.

Not to mention that he is anxious to make meritorious contributions, this is an opportunity. He is extremely confident in Zhang Jiajun's light cavalry, and he believes that as long as these people are complementary, it is possible to complete any task.

In this way, Lu Bu received the military order and waited here with five hundred light horsemen of the Zhang family's army. In Zhang Chao's words, this is the only way for Fan Chou to escape, as long as he stays here, he may not let go of the heavy task of completing the total annihilation.

At this time, Tianjijing began to light up, although it is not enough to say that you can see the appearance of people from a hundred meters away, but at least you can see far away in the line of sight.

The target hadn't come yet, and Lu Bu couldn't help but be a little anxious when he rode on the red rabbit horse. He knew that the abilities of Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, and Xu Chu were not much worse than himself. It wouldn't be that these three tiger generals killed Fan Chou, if so, he wouldn't be able to grab any credit.
