Chapter 283: The Fire Horse Runs Wild

Bang Bang Bang!

After the three bangs, it was already the third watch.

The Xianbei camp gradually calmed down, and there was a faint sound of crying from a distance, coming from the Karasuma station.

The entire Xianbei camp was silent.

A few guards guarding outside the gate of the horse camp stood listlessly against the gate......

It's almost time!

Liu Chuang and others had been hiding in the reeds for four or five hours. Seeing that the guards of the Xianbei camp were becoming more and more lax, he made a gesture towards Xiahou Lan, and then walked out of the reeds with his waist bent and slowly approached the gate of the horse camp. Behind him, more than a hundred guards followed. When they came to the gate of the horse camp, the Xianbei soldiers guarding the gate were dazzled and noticed that someone was approaching.

"Who!"

A Xianbei soldier opened his hazy sleepy eyes and asked lazily.

In his opinion, the people who appeared here at this time must be his own people. After all, the Han people were trapped in Liucheng, and it was impossible for roots to appear here.

It's just that the moment he saw the person dressed clearly, a flash of light suddenly flashed in front of him.

Liu Chuang saw that he was noticed by the other party, so he raised his hand and threw three small guns. The spear was lightning fast and killed the guard instantly. At the same time, the iron guards behind Liu Chuang also rushed to the gate and killed the guards cleanly, without making any movement.

That Putou, careless!

Liu Chuang waved his hand and led the people into the horse camp.

The scale of this horse camp is not small, and only two or three thousand war horses are stored in it.

Liu Chuang walked outside the stable, looked at the tall horses in the stable, and secretly screamed pity in his heart.

However, this was not the time for him to sigh, and seeing that there was almost no sign of people in the horse camp, he immediately ordered the iron guard to go over. He was relieved to apply the oil he had brought with him to the horses, and then to drive them out of the stables and tie them with ropes.

Xia Houlan was covered in blood and walked quickly to Liu Chuang's side.

There were about two or three hundred guards in the horse camp, but they were killed by Xia Houlan and the people unconsciously.

Looking at the war horses gathered in the open space in the camp, Xiahou Lan couldn't help but feel pity, "If these horses are given to me, I will build another iron horse for the lord." ā€

Liu Chuang listened. Smile slightly.

He ordered three hundred horses to be brought out, and then looked at the sky, and it was nearly four watches.

"Hengruo, let's do it."

Xia Houlan nodded, and immediately ordered someone to set fire to the rope tied to the war horse. He then quickly withdrew from the horse camp and closed the gate.

The flames on the rope touched the oil on the horse's body and immediately burst into flames.

More than 2,000 frightened war horses neighed miserably, and galloped towards the Xianbei camp with their hooves on their backs.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, in order to prevent rainwater from penetrating, the tents were mostly smeared with grease. When more than 2,000 war horses rushed into the Xianbei camp, it immediately caused a raging fire.

Xianbei people in their sleep. It was not clear what had happened, so that when the herd of firehorses arrived, they were at a loss.

Liu Chuangfei got on his horse and rode to a mound. A bird's-eye view of the Xianbei camp, the fire is steaming, and from a distance, it looks like a sea of fire.

Putou is in the big tent of the Chinese army. Woken up by the sound of commotion.

He came out barefoot and clothed, only to see thousands of fiery horses rampaging through the barracks.

"What happened?"

Putou was shocked. Shouted repeatedly.

A Xianbei soldier stumbled in front of Putou, "Lord Putou, it's not good...... Somehow, the horses suddenly caught fire and broke into the camp. ā€

"It's not good, the Han army steals the camp!"

Before Putou could react, he heard an exclamation.

Pu Tou looked back, but it was Mr. Tian.

He was about to open his mouth to ask, when he heard a shout of killing.

A team of Han army iron cavalry rushed into the Xianbei camp from outside the gate...... At this time, the Xianbei camp was in chaos, and there was no one to command. After the Han army rushed into the Xianbei camp, they killed everyone they met, and cut down anyone they saw. Led by two Han generals, one galloped with a sword, and the other rushed to kill with a spear. These two Han generals, like two tigers descending from the mountain, rushed into the camp as if they were in a no-man's land, only killing the Xianbei camp with a river of blood.

Putou also panicked and shouted loudly.

At this time, someone brought a war horse, and Putou had just straddled the horse, but saw a horse galloping.

"Putou dog thief, take your life."

The Han galloped on his horse, and the big knife in his hand drew an arc of light in the air, and with a strong wind, he slashed towards Putou.

Pu Tou had just sat down firmly on the horse, and he didn't even have time to see the appearance of the Han general clearly, and hurriedly raised his sword to meet him.

Hearing the sound of the bell, Pu Tou only felt a huge force coming from the knife, and Ma Xiyu hissed under his crotch and took a few steps back. Pu Tou's arm was even more unconscious, and the big knife in his hand flew out of his hand. He yelled that it was not good, and he turned his horse and tried to run away. How do you know that the Han will be fast with the knife, and after the knife is blocked, the big knife draws an arc in the air, and it is slashed again......

"Putou-sama be careful!"

Seeing this, Putou's guards couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly reminded loudly.

However, the knife light was like lightning, and Putougen didn't have time to react, only a cold light passed by in the corner of his eye, and the head of Putou was cut off with a click. Blood gushed out of the cavity, and Putou's body shook twice on the horse, and then fell off the horse.

"Lord Putou was killed by the Han Chinese!"

"Putou-sama is dead......

The Xianbei soldiers watched the head of Putou fall to the ground, and they were stunned for a moment, and then they were shocked.

Several Xianbei generals rushed to avenge Putou, but they didn't want another Han general to come forward, and stopped the other party with a round of big guns.

After Liu Chuang killed Pu Tou, he ignored Pu Tou's corpse.

He raised his Jiazi sword on his horse and shouted: "Sons, follow me to kill Hu Lu and make meritorious contributions, just now!" ā€

"Kill Hu Lu and make a contribution!"

The three hundred flying bears rode the iron guards in unison, and followed Liu Chuang into the chaos army.

At this time, the Xianbei camp had turned into a sea of fire, and the camp with more than ten miles of face was swallowed up by the flames. The more than 2,000 fire horses, after a period of rampage, finally could not hold on, and one by one fell to the ground and died. But. It's enough...... More than 2,000 war horses crisscrossed the entire Xianbei camp, and even broke up four or five horse camps, and thousands of war horses roared out and galloped around in the camp.

Many frightened horses went mad, and no one could stop them.

The Karasuma Camp, which was located on the side of the Xianbei Camp, was also affected by the startled horses, and in an instant, it fell into chaos......

Liu Chuang and Xiahou Lan took three hundred iron guards to kill a seven-in-seven-out in the Xianbei camp, when the sky was bright. Finally, the men were sleepy and stopped fighting.

However, Shi Lian, who had already received the news in Liucheng City, had ordered someone to open the city gate and take the Han army out of the city.

On the banks of the Yushui River. There was an astonishing scene.

Thousands of Han troops pursued and killed the Xianbei and Karasuma people ten times their size, and all they saw along the way were the corpses of the Xianbei and Karasuma people......

Impacted by the fire horse and trampled by the frightened horse, many Xianbei people did not know what happened even to death.

Liu Chuang had already changed to an elephant dragon and rode a horse up a mound. Behind him. Shi Jian followed closely with more than 100 people, while Xiahou Lan led the Flying Bear to attack and continued to pursue the enemy.

"Today's events are like a dream."

Liu Chuang didn't expect it. Those more than 2,000 fiery horses would cause such a result, so that when I rode on the horse, I still felt a little dazed.

"This time it's really lucky, if it weren't for Putou's underestimation. The horse camp was not guarded by any guards, and I am afraid that there would not be such a great victory. ā€

Shi Jian smiled and said: "This lord is lucky with the weather." If it weren't for God's ordination, how could we have today's great victory? ā€

"Really?"

Liu Chuang also smiled, but immediately, there was a haze on his face.

"I don't want to start a war against the Xianbei people so early, but I didn't think that the Xianbei people would take the initiative to come to the door.

This time, fortunately, the Xianbei people didn't know that I was in Liucheng, otherwise they would have attacked from the beginning, then you and I would have worried about our lives. ā€

Shi Jian couldn't help but gasp when he heard this.

He didn't feel this way during the previous war, and now that he thinks about it, he can't help but be terrified.

That's right, if Pu Tou knew that Liu Chuang was also in Liucheng, I am afraid that he would not have used the consumption tactic of Na Laoshizi, and would have launched a fierce attack on Liucheng from the beginning. It was Putou who wanted to preserve his strength, so he spared Liu Chuang and won today's victory.

It's just that Liu Chuang's worries are not unreasonable.

Yan Liyou and Bu Benyi teamed up this time, which was weird.

And this time Putou died in Liucheng, and Xianbei people were defeated and returned, so how could Yan Liyou give up? It is conceivable that Yan Liyou will definitely fight with Liu Chuang in the future. Liu Chuang is not afraid of the Xianbei people, but now he is trying his best to deal with the battle of Youzhou, and he has no intention of entangling with the Xianbei people. In this way, I am afraid that I will be trapped by the Xianbei people, and the next battle against Youzhou will not be easy.

"Lord, what are your plans?"

After Liu Chuang pondered for a long time, he suddenly gritted his teeth and seemed to have made up his mind.

"Since the Xianbei people want to fight, then I simply ignited the flames of war in the northern Xinjiang.

Xianbei people are good at field warfare and have strong mobility ability. If we blindly defend passively, we will fall into disadvantage from the beginning...... I am going to send a group of troops and horses deep into the northern frontier to raid Xianbei. I want to see if the Xianbei people can resist the iron cavalry of our Han army.

Back then, the champion Hou once killed Hu Lu and fled, and today I should follow the example of the champion Hou and let the northern Xinjiang dye red ......"

Shi Lian's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but ask, "I don't know who the lord is going to send?" ā€

Liu Chuang was stunned for a moment, looked at Shi Lian and said, "Could it be that there is a suitable candidate for Gong Liu?" ā€

Shi Jian said with a smile: "If you talk about fighting with Hu Lu, under the lord's account, no one can be more familiar with it than Wen Hou.

Although Wen Hou is old, he is still majestic. He galloped through the grassland in Wuyuan that year, causing Hu Lu to flee in despair. Now, Wen Hou has nothing to do, but he can be ordered to be the main general, supplemented by two generals to fight in the grassland. Thinking about Yan Liyou, you will inevitably regret offending the lord at that time. ā€

Let Lu Bu take command?

In Liu Chuang's heart, he couldn't help but nod secretly.

In terms of the art of cavalry warfare, it is true that no one can be around Lu Bu.

But Lu Bu is old after all, and the wind in the north is strong, and he doesn't know if he can hold it.

In addition, who is the deputy general to cooperate with Lu Bu's conquest? In Liu Chuang's mind, countless names flashed between the lightning and flint......

To say, the most suitable candidate is Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao has followed Lu Bu for many years, and the cooperation can be said to complement each other, and they are very familiar with each other.

And Zhang Liao is brave and good at fighting, which is indeed suitable. But Liu Chuang didn't want Zhang Liao to fight, in his opinion, Zhang Liao was still useful.

"Gong Liu thinks that who is the right person?"

Shi Jian smiled slightly. He said softly: "The main thing is to let the prince fight on the battlefield, but to borrow the name of the Nine Plains Tiger to deter Hu Lu." Therefore, Wen Hou only needs to sit in the Chinese army, so this deputy general must choose a brave and good fighter, and he is also proficient in cavalry warfare.

The last general thought that there were three suitable people to be deputy generals under the main account.

Zilong is now in Yongnu. To resist Zhang He's army, you can't move lightly.

It is better to assist Wen Hou in the expedition to the northern frontier, and then the lord can avoid worries. ā€

When Liu Chuang heard this, he couldn't help but look at Shi Jian in surprise.

I have to say. Shi Lian is not as brave as Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun, but if you talk about marching and fighting, the planning and layout are not inferior.

This is a handsome talent!

A handsome talent who is not necessarily inferior to Zhang Liao and others......

"However, I want to stay in Xuansu County for a long time, because I am worried that the people of Fuyu will make trouble."

Shi Jian smiled and said, "My lord is wrong...... I think that at the beginning, the reason why Fu Yuguo dared to make chaos was more because of the chaos of the dynasty. No one cares about Liaodong. In addition, Goguryeo was in trouble, Gongsun Du indulged, and Fuyu dared to do such things. But now, Liaodong is in the hands of the lord. Moreover, Goguryeo was included in the territory of our Han Dynasty by the lord. In this way, Fu Yu Guoyan dares to provoke again?

The lord conquered the northern frontier, and the rest of the country not only did not dare to make trouble, but even willingly. Cooperate with the lord.

Won't the people of the Fuyu country be threatened by Yan Liyou? If the lord wants to conquer Yan Liyou, he can send someone to discuss with the lord of Fuyu. He's here to help. ā€

What Shi Jian said is quite reasonable.

Liu Chuang couldn't help but nod again and again, and after a while, he said softly: "Let me think about this matter again." ā€

Woo Fu Yuguo and join forces to attack Yan Liyou...... In this way, Fu Yuguo can share a large part of the troops, and Liu Chuang will not feel too much pressure.

It's just that the conquest of northern Xinjiang is not a trivial matter after all.

Although Liu Chuang has made up his mind, he has to go back to discuss with everyone before he can finally make a decision.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

By noon, the fighting had ceased.

At the end of the day, Chen Jiao led 800 volunteers from Yangle through Louzi Mountain to join the battle group.

With the appearance of Chen Jiao, it also heralded the end of the battle of Liucheng. Liu Chuang personally greeted Chen Jiao and praised Chen Jiao repeatedly.

Chen Jiao didn't have many soldiers and horses in his hands, but he dared to lead people to gallop from Yangle, which shows his loyalty.

"My lord, I caught a guy on the road, and it looks quite strange."

"Oh?"

Liu Chuang was stunned when he heard this, so he asked, "Who did Ji Bi catch?" ā€

"This person claims to be a Xianbei captive, but his speech and demeanor are quite good."

Liu Chuang thought about it and asked Chen Jiao to bring the man.

After a while, Chen Jiao led a man in his early thirties who looked quite heroic into the lobby.

The man was dressed in a gray cloth jacket and a hood, and he looked rather shabby. It's just that judging from his demeanor, there is an inexplicable spirit.

The man bent over and hung his head, looking a little frightened.

But Liu Chuang could see from his eyes that he was not as frightened as he seemed on the surface.

"What's your name?"

"The grass people, named Tian Wang."

Tian Wang?

This is a very unfamiliar name, at least in Liu Chuang's memory, there is no impression.

"Why are you among the Xianbei people?"

Tian Wang hurriedly explained, saying that he was just an ordinary person in western Liaoning and had been living in Biansai. This time, the Xianbei people ran for a long time, and he was caught by the Xianbei people. Because he was proficient in Xianbei and Karasuma, he was not killed by the Xianbei people and stayed in the army as a miscellaneous officer.

Liu Chuang listened to his explanation, and at the same time stood up and came to Tian Wang's side.

He circled around Tian Wang twice, and suddenly said, "You just said that you live in Biansai?" Don't know how to make a living? ā€

"Oh, the grass people live by grazing."

"You're lying!"

Liu Chuang suddenly screamed, grabbed Tian Wang's clothes, and tore Tian Wang's collar with his hand.

"You have fair skin, how do you make a living from herding?

Although I don't know how to graze, I know that this grazing has to be exposed to the wind and sun every day, why do you have such skin? Also, a herdsman, who worked as a handyman among the Xianbei people, wore a pair of shoes worth ten times. Do you think that a certain family is a fool and a blind person can't make it? ā€

Tian Wang's face changed, but he did not show a panicked look.

He raised his head, stared at Liu Chuang for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Dare to ask the general's name?" ā€

"A certain Liu Chuang, is the uncle of the Han Emperor, who are you?"

Tian Wang was stunned, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly paused: "I didn't expect that Uncle Huang would be in Liucheng, if I had known this, I shouldn't have let the Karasuma people consume, but as soon as I arrived in Liucheng, I launched a strong attack." It is believed that with the strength of Liucheng, it will not be able to resist for too long. ā€

It sounds like this guy built yƬ Putou to consume the strength of the Han army with the Karasuma people?

Liu Chuang's eyes narrowed, and he asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?" ā€

"Since the imperial uncle is in front of him, if he is hiding his head and shrinking his feet, he will be looked down upon by the imperial uncle.

The grass people's name is Tian Chou, and the people of Beiping are right...... I have heard the name of the emperor's uncle for a long time, and I don't want to visit today, but I am on such an occasion. No wonder Liucheng's defense was so resolute, no wonder it was suddenly attacked yesterday. Thinking that this is all the arm of the emperor's uncle, Tian Chou admires it......"

Tian Chou?

Liu Chuang couldn't help but be stunned.

The name sounds familiar, and it seems to be a bit impressive.

By the way, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, there is a person named Tian Xu, from Zhong Hui and Deng Ai Gong Fa Xichuan. Later, because of jealousy of Deng Ai and his son, he took advantage of the Zhonghui Rebellion to kill Deng Ai and Deng Zhong's father and son. That Tian Xu seems to be Tian Chou's nephew.

"You are Tian Zitai?"

Chen Jiao asked in surprise: "Liu Youzhou treated you so kindly back then, why did he want to help that Xianbei person today to offend me in Liaoxi?"

I remember that you were extremely hostile to the Xianbei people back then, and now that the emperor's uncle has pacified Youzhou, why did he betray the court and serve the Xianbei people? ā€

It sounds like this Tian Chou is not a small fame.

Liu Chuang frowned slightly, then looked at Tian Chou and waited for him to answer.

Tian Chou was not ashamed, and arched his hand towards Chen Jiao, "I have heard of Ji Bi's name for a long time."

What I am doing today is not to betray the court, but to be sent by the court. Now Cao Sikong is the Son of Heaven to order the princes, intending to rejuvenate the Han family, and the emperor's uncle is the Han Chen, so he should assist Sikong to attack Yuan Shao and crusade against the ministers. I can observe that Uncle Huang is self-respecting in Liaodong, is he trying to do wrong? ā€
