Chapter 394: Xiahou Yuan's Choice

Lu Bu still led the army and marched unhurriedly towards Hucheng Pavilion, while Cao Cao hurried all the way and came straight to Hucheng Pavilion. More than 3,000 people www.biquge.info Xiahou Yuan, the commander of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, as the front army of the army on this road, met Cao Ren who hurried back when he passed Liujia Village.

"Zixiao?" Xiahou Yuan was very embarrassed when he saw that the other party was very embarrassed, and there were only less than a hundred people behind him, who were rushing from afar.

"Set up the formation, meet the enemy." Almost in the blink of an eye, Xiahou Yuan made the most correct choice, I have to say that Xiahou Yuan is really an excellent general, and his reaction is indeed very fast.

Almost when Xiahou Yuan set up the formation, Cao Ren had already rushed into the array, and said to Xiahou Yuan who was panting and breathless, "Miaocai, go quickly, the enemy's iron cavalry is very strong, and my five hundred scouts collided with it, and almost in the blink of an eye, more than half of them have been destroyed." If it weren't for my quick response, I am afraid that I would have died at this time, so Miao Cai quickly ordered the whole army to leave and reported it to Cao Gong. ”

"What?" Without waiting for Xiahou Yuan to react, he saw dust and smoke rising in the distance, and through the method of looking at the dust, Xiahou Yuan suddenly judged that the other party was a cavalry, and the number was between 10,000 people.

At this time, Xiahou Yuan only led more than 3,000 people, and in such a flat place, let alone 3,000, even if it was offset by the amount of the enemy, Xiahou Yuan did not dare to confront the cavalry head-on here.

But at this time, Xiahou Yuan did not listen to Cao Ren's words, and quickly recalled the map of this place in his mind, as well as the chatter of the people along the way, hoping to solve the current predicament.

Xiahou Yuan's most enviable ability is his memory, this person can firmly remember all the mountains and rivers after reading the map, such a skill is really the envy of other generals.

And everyone was also very puzzled by Xiahou Yuan, why he often chatted with the local people, and even sometimes met along the way, those people who were poor and could not eat enough, would also give generously and give a certain amount of food and money rewards. There is only one purpose in mind, and that is the local topography of the region.

These kinds of things can't be understood by others, but Xiahou Yuan knows in his own heart that the marching array is nothing more than the time, place, and people. Among them, although the time of day is in the first place, the second is the location.

However, once the geographical advantage is completely grasped by the generals, it will surpass the heavenly time, and then there will be people and forces, which can reach thousands of enemy troops.

"The whole army marches eastward, quickly."

"Miaocai, the east side is a mud dragon pool, aren't you?"

"Zixiao, although the mud dragon pool in the east is not conducive to the march, but it is a greater obstacle to the cavalry, you go and inform Cao Gong, Yuan will try to lure the enemy army into the mud dragon pool, buy time for Cao Gong. If the enemy can't be fooled, you must try to get into the quagmire to the east so that you can avoid such a strong enemy. ”

"Yes, Miaocai, I'll go and inform the lord."

Cao Ren's eyes lit up, he turned around and left in a hurry, and the hundred scouts under his command naturally stayed here, although he knew that this hundred numbers could not have too much impact on the enemy, but the current situation was undoubtedly also a little helpful to Xiahou Yuan.

After Cao Ren hurriedly left, Xiahou Yuan raised the battle flag and made noise with gongs and drums along the way, which attracted the attention of the enemy, not to mention, but also frightened away the beasts and birds that wanted to prey, so that the army could move very fast.

When he heard such news, Xu Rong's eyes lit up when he heard that the number of enemy troops had increased to three thousand, and then he ordered to pursue the enemy army. How can you surpass Huaxiong's position.

He and Hua Xiong are both lieutenants, but after all, Hua Xiong supervises the whole army, and in comparison with real power, Xu Rong is undoubtedly inferior to Hua Xiong, so he ascended the throne with his brave military exploits, and he is also full of dissatisfaction with Hua Xiong, and more envy. This also led to his desire to obtain greater merits, so as to compete with Hua Xiong and tend to be equal.

After all, the two joined Dong Zhuo's command almost at the same time, and seeing that other people's official positions were getting higher and higher, he was still a captain, which made his face a little unpleasant.

Xu Rong knew that in the southeast of Liujia Village, there was a quagmire swamp, which was called the Mud Dragon Pond, and the enemy obviously wanted to use this as a hindrance.

However, Xu Rong thinks that his strength is superior, and it is difficult for him to have an opponent in the world. Coupled with 10,000 oolong iron horsemen, as long as you catch up with the opponent and before you enter the quagmire, you can kill all 3,000 enemy troops. In addition, if the enemy is unwise and ventures into the quagmire, then he will return with his troops and hide nearby.

"The whole army is in a surprise attack, and it is important to kill all the enemy before they enter the quagmire. When we return to Luoyang, Captain Bendu will definitely ask for credit for everyone. In addition, Captain Pontus promised everyone that if they killed one person, they would be rewarded with silver and silver. Listen to it, it's the official silver of the white flowers, not the inferior silver taels. ”

There must be brave men under the heavy reward, although this silver is not valued by the player, but it fell into the hands of these soldiers, enough to feed a family of five for a month, so these oolong iron horsemen, also have to exert their strength, not caring about the war horses and their tired bodies, waving the spear in this hand, howling forward to kill.

Xiahou Yuan listened to the battle report of the scout behind him, and heard that the other party had led the crowd to pursue, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he secretly said in his heart: "Uncle Cao, I hope you can return safely, or don't fight with Lu Bu, at the moment, it is estimated that only by joining forces with Lu Bu can you get rid of such a danger, but don't be stupid to chase me." ”

"The whole army is in a hurry, and I heard the people here say that there is a dense forest ahead, also known as the ghost burial forest, that is, ghosts can be buried here. As long as we bypass the ghost burial forest, we can go south along the gutter water and reach the northern gate of Guhengyong. If the enemy enters the ghost burial forest, hmph, we will not have to make a move at that time, and this 10,000-strong cavalry army will fall. ”

There were not too many words, but the people who were originally afraid and worried directly rose to hope, these people were all newly recruited soldiers, and they had not been tempered by the battlefield at all, Xiahou Yuan could only explain it, so as to stabilize the morale of the whole army.

Seeing these soldiers, a look of hope rose in their eyes, and they gradually began to obey the orders of the team leader, and gradually began to run forward steadily, Xiahou Yuan nodded secretly, although the combat power of this new army is not strong, but the military spirit is available.

Just when Xiahou Yuan reached the edge of the quagmire, the 10,000 cavalry in the rear had already arrived in a hurry, and Xu Rong shouted even more: "What a chaotic minister and thief, you dare to disrespect the majesty of the imperial court and commit rebellion, today is your death day." ”

"Hmph, Dong thief's dog, how dare you say this? The people of the world, everyone knows that Dong thief steals the country, and your general does not know the general trend of the world, which is really stupid. Dong thief has already fallen in the afterglow of the sun, and he will be killed by my eighteenth route army in a few days, I advise you, or abandon the darkness and turn to the light, so as to avoid the risk of dying. ”

The two of them called for battle, and no one got any bargains, but Xu Rong was also in a hurry, and before Xiahou Yuan finished speaking, he ordered an attack.

Xiahou Yuan saw the other party's handsome army and killed directly to his side, his eyes suddenly tightened, and he said to the deputy general beside him: "Transfer thousands of dead soldiers, stay with me to block the enemy, and the rest will follow you into the Guigui Ghost Burial Forest, remember to see the pattern of peach blossoms carved on the trunk of the tree, so go in the opposite direction, and after getting out of the Ghost Burial Forest, go all the way out along the gutter water, and it is good to meet Cao Gong." ”

"Captain, no, I'll ...... it"

"Don't say more, with your strength, how can you hinder the enemy army and fight for the survival of our brothers. And I have my own way of leaving safely, and then I will regain the prestige of our Camp Tempest. ”

"Captain ......"

"Get out, delay any longer, none of us will be able to leave, if you don't leave, I will die before you, go quickly."

Seeing Xiahou Yuan pull the sword in his waist, put it directly on his neck, and urged the deputy general with death, this deputy general can also lead a group of soldiers who are unwilling to leave with tears in his eyes, and quickly go to the depths of the ghost burial forest.
