Chapter 291: Pulling out the arrow

Guo Yan led the Xiahou brothers and rushed to the south gate. In order to avoid arousing suspicion, he changed the two of them into the costumes of Liangzhou soldiers on the road, and with a little modification, it was basically difficult to recognize their true appearances.

When the three of them came to the south gate to confront the Bingzhou army, they saw the smoke billowing around them, broken arms and limbs could be seen everywhere, and the moans were endless, like purgatory on earth.

Guo Yan didn't care about this, he just wanted to quickly lead the troops to Cao. Fortunately, the process was very smooth, only Li Wei was on an equal footing with him in the army, and Jia Xu had high prestige but could not control the personal soldiers he had always carried, so it only took half an hour to integrate the army and lead them to the east gate.

The Liangzhou army in Nancheng was already very expensive, and as soon as Guo Yan's 13,000 soldiers left, they immediately seemed deserted. Seeing that Guo Yan was hurrying without looking back, Li Wei, who was covered with dust, hurriedly caught up and asked, "General Guo, where are you going?"

After a day of war, Li Dao's troops, as the main battle, were destroyed and attacked, and only a few thousand of the 30,000 people remained. In order to preserve his strength, Guo Yan almost bluffed behind his troops, so the loss was not large. And because the Bingzhou army was blocked near the city gate, it only advanced the battle line several zhang after paying a heavy price, and it was also a big loss at this moment, and it was resting in place.

"Uh...... The east gate is in an emergency, and I will rush to help. Guo Yan replied casually.

Li Wei was taken aback, but suddenly thought of something unreasonable, "All the Bingzhou troops are assembled at the south gate, why don't you tell Brother Guo not to joke, now I still need Brother Guo to contribute." ”

He saw that although Guo Yan was a little anxious, he was not frightened, so he was even more suspicious.

"I said yes, Brother Li, let me tell you, the lord has been killed by Lu Bu, you better make plans early!"

"What?"

When Li Dao heard this, it was like five thunderbolts on the top, and he froze on the spot.

"Hehe, Jia Xu hasn't told you yet, right? Don't be fooled by someone for a monkey. Everyone is a colleague, and the past friends are not shallow, Guo Yan can only say that. ”

After that, he opened his legs and ignored Li Dao.

Li Dao grabbed him and didn't let go, "Brother Guo, since the lord is dead, I still have to guide the foolish brother to a clear way!"

Guo Yan stopped, and kept thinking in his heart: Li Dao usually calls me a brother and a brother, but in fact, there is not a day when he doesn't want to climb on my head. It is not a problem to introduce him to Cao, but at most he will only be praised, but there is one more fierce rival for no reason, and the gains outweigh the losses.

"Brother Li, don't hide it, you guessed it. It's not that the east gate is in an emergency, but I'm going to lead my brothers to escape from the battlefield. Don't blame me for being a deserter, now that our army is gone, I have no choice but to make this decision. You can't follow me, because then the target is too big, and it will only cause the state army to pursue. In the opinion of the foolish brother, you can leave some soldiers here to block the Bingzhou army, after all, plus Zhang Ji's remaining thousands of soldiers, there are nearly 10,000, and it should be no problem to block the equally tired Bingzhou army. You lead another group of henchmen to the palace, loot the belongings, and finally escape through the north gate. With money, you can recruit troops again and make a comeback, and if you retreat, you can abandon your armor and go into hiding, and be at ease."

When Li Dao heard this, he thanked him again and again, and left overjoyed.

Brother Xiahou followed Guo Yan around, and when he saw Li Dao going away, he stepped forward with an unkind face, Xia

Hou Dian asked viciously, "Guo Yan, why don't you let Li Dao follow us?"

Guo Yan had already thought of a rhetoric: "Li Wei has always had a bad reputation in the army, and his relationship with Jia Xu is extraordinary, if all the remaining 10,000 soldiers are withdrawn, not to mention being pursued by the Bingzhou army, our two sides are about the same, in case they conspire to plot, everything will be wasted." If the two generals don't believe me, I can call him back, but if something happens, they will have to take full responsibility. ”

"This ......"

Xiahoudun was choked by Guo Yan and was speechless, so he had to give up. But his attitude had already angered Guo Yan, and Guo Yan forcibly suppressed his anger: I am also a general, and I dare to talk to me like this. When I gain a firm foothold in Yanzhou, I will be the first to deal with you.

Time was pressing, and the brigade of men and horses hurriedly raised torches in the dark, and suddenly a group of soldiers from the darkness turned out, and the leading general shouted: "Who is coming, don't surrender quickly!"

Xiahou was afraid that Guo Yan would lose, so he hurried forward to block him, the pulse was already in his hand, and shouted: "Your grandfather Xiahou Yuan is also, get out of here!"

The general on the opposite side snorted coldly, bent his bow and arrows in the dark, and a pitch-black sharp arrow broke through the air, Xiahoudun couldn't dodge, and there was a sharp pain in his left eye, and he said heartbreakingly: "It hurts me!"

Subconsciously reached out and pulled out the arrow, but pulled it out with his eyeball. The mouth still roared: "Father's essence ‖ mother's blood, don't throw it away!"

Raise your hand and bite the eyeball in your mouth, chew it with a crunch, and swallow it in one gulp. Regain the pulse again, and kill the opponent wildly.

When the soldiers on both sides saw Xiahoudun so brave, they were all frightened. By the time the generals on the opposite side reacted, Xiahoudun had already killed with blood on his face, not to mention how hideous it was. Caught off guard, he was stabbed to death by Xiahoudun.

Xiahou killed and scattered the enemy soldiers, and then asked Guo Yan, "Who will this be?"

Guo Yan saw all this in his eyes, and he was already frightened, and replied: "Yes...... is one of the eight strong generals under Lu Bu, Cao. This man is the best at stealing!"

Xiahou Yuan tore off the corner of his clothes and bandaged Xiahoudun's wounds, but Xiahoudun was still angry and spit on Cao's corpse, "Hidden arrows hurt people's rats! Xiahou Yuan still insisted on helping him finish the bandage.

Xiahoudun stared at the one-eyed scolding, and suddenly saw a person lying motionless on a stretcher in the corner, I don't know whether he is alive or dead, looking at the material, this person is still very burly.

"It turned out to be Xu Huang! He was injured by Lu Bu, he should have been captured by Cao in the chaos, and he didn't expect to be bumped into here. Guo Yan explained.

Xiahoudun was overjoyed, "I once heard Meng De say that among Dong Zhuojun's rising stars, Xu Huang and Zhang Xiu have some skills, and since they have met, bring him with them." ”

There were no accidents along the way, Guo Yan did not stop doing anything, and simply withdrew the remaining 2,000 soldiers from the East Gate and joined the surrender army. They joined Cao outside the eastern city, and at this time the army increased to 17,000 people, and Xu Huang was gained, and Cao's heart was already happy.

The most important thing is that Cao has a letter of appointment hidden deep in his arms, the appointment letter of the pastor of Yuzhou. This is Cao sacrificing his life to do things for Liu Xie, and even abandoning the original agreement with Shi Xin

The biggest reason.

It turned out that in order to win over the princes' army, Liu Xie privately issued a letter of appointment to Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Jian, and Liu Biao. Cao is the pastor of Yanzhou and Yuzhou, Liu Bei is the pastor of Xuzhou and Qingzhou, Sun Jian is the pastor of Yangzhou and Jiaozhou, and Liu Biao is the pastor of Jingzhou and Yizhou.

Liu Xie's plan originally included killing Shi Xin, but the princes, under the leadership of Cao, turned back and supported Shi Xin to use Lu Bu to restrain and annex the state army, so that Shi Xin escaped. This made Liu Xie very angry, but he still had to rely on the princes to escape from Chang'an, so he had to dare to be angry and not speak out.

Cao saw that Xiahou was blind in one eye, and couldn't help but be shocked, and asked what was going on.

Xiahoudun said what had happened, and he didn't care about Dumu, but said with a little joy: "Although the arrow just now made me lose an eye, but when it hurt my heart, it made me break through the restrictions of many years, and many problems in cultivation were solved, and I was even promoted to the seventh rank in one fell swoop, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise." ”

Everyone was amazed, but seeing Xiahoudun's hideous face and blood on his clothes, he opened his mouth and scolded non-stop, and he didn't dare to ask more.

Cao said a few words of condolences, let Xiahou Yuan take care of him, waved his hand, and led everyone to look at Yanzhou overnight. It's not that he didn't want to kill Guo Yan immediately, but after all, he wanted to use him to stabilize the morale of the army, so he recruited him to the side and persuaded him with good words. I thought that after returning to Yanzhou, if he didn't know what to do and behaved in a high-profile manner, then he would be killed casually according to a crime.

After the soldiers at the east gate withdrew, the city gates were wide open. Several teams of men and horses came out of the dark alley and merged into one team. The first person is fierce and resolute, and the dragon walks the tiger, it is Sun Jian. At this time, he frowned, and he was angry that Cao had won so many soldiers and horses.

"Lord, let's go!" Zhou Yu stepped forward to comfort Sun Jian, "What a blessing to gain, how to lose Cao Cao brought so many generals, much more prepared than us." He asked Yang Xiu to pretend to be the emperor and attract most of the troops, which originally meant "seeking wealth and danger", if it wasn't for his luck, he would have buried the enemy long ago. Therefore, we don't want the benefits of this kind of risk. What's more, didn't we get a letter of appointment from Jiaozhou? This is the biggest gain. ”

Sun Cesheng was bold and broad, never entangled in things that had passed, laughed, put his arms around Zhou Yu and Tai Shici's shoulders and said, "Father, Gongjin is right. Moreover, these 5,000 soldiers were recruited by Gong Jin and Ziyi at the risk of their lives, and you are so angry that they are so sad. What's more, didn't we say before we came, recruiting troops is secondary, the most important thing is to win the appointment letter of Jiaozhou Mu, and at the same time disintegrate the Donglu alliance to provide the premise for the future development, haven't these two goals been achieved?"

Sun Jian thought about it, and sure enough, his lost heart suddenly relaxed a lot. He looked at the three energetic faces in front of him, his ambition was aroused again, and he scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, your father doesn't need you to teach you a lesson." Everything is done here, we must rush back to Jiangdong immediately, step up training, and there are still many important things waiting for us to do. ”

Then he frowned and looked at the sky, and said worriedly: "I always feel that this energy will cause a great change in the situation, whether it is a blessing or a curse, you need to prepare in advance." ”

The faces of the four suddenly became solemn, only to feel that the burden on their shoulders was heavier, and they led the people to Yangzhou with their hearts.
