Cao '' saw the tragic situation of Xu Huang and Xu Chu, and his expression was shocked. For more up-to-date chapters, visit: ะจะฉะฉ.(7)(9)XS.ัะะ.
At this time, Xu Huang's face was pale, his lips were chapped, and the corners of his mouth were dark red and bloodshot. When he walks, his body trembles and his back is stiff.
Xu Huang walked forward step by step, staggering, as if a gust of wind was blowing, and he was about to fall to the ground.
Compared with Xu Huang, Xu Chu's face is better, and his walking pace is more calm and powerful, but the clothes on Xu Chu's shoulders are full of blood, and there is an iron arrow 'inserted' in his shoulder, and the situation is also very serious.
The situation of the two is too shocking.
"Plop!"
After Xu Huang knelt down, he lay on the ground with his hands and knocked on the ground with his head. He coughed twice, his body trembled slightly, and said slowly: "Lord, the last general is incompetent, resulting in the annihilation of the entire army of five thousand 'elite' cavalry, please surrender the lord." โ
"Boom!"
Cao's mind went blank.
5,000 'fine' cavalry annihilated!
What kind of concept is this, is it possible that there are tens of thousands of troops under Liu Xiu's command?
Cao 'Cao' had confidence in his soldiers, even if Liu Xiu had tens of thousands of troops, it would be difficult to take down 5,000 'fine' cavalry. It can be said that Cao '' knows that Xu Huang will not lie, since he is defeated, it is true.
Xu Chu also knelt down, kowtowed, and said: "The last general has a thousand 'elite' sharps, and there are no two out of ten, please surrender to the lord." โ
His body trembled slightly, and his shoulders ached.
Cao '' his sitting body and couldn't help but tremble.
The 5,000 'fine' cavalry was completely annihilated, and the 1,000 'elite' elite were also defeated, and the losses were so serious.
Cao '' was shocked in his heart, but after all, his psychological quality was strong.
He suppressed the shock in his heart, then stood up, walked to Xu Huang and Xu Chu's side, helped the two of them, and then ordered: "Come here, pass the military doctor." โ
Without accountability and without asking about things, Cao 'Cao' chose to treat the injuries of the two first.
Xu Huang was supported by Cao's '', his emotions were even more 'wave', he coughed up a mouthful of blood in his mouth, and said again: "Lord, the last general is incompetent, please surrender the lord." โ
Cao 'Cao' let go of the hand that was supporting Xu Chu, supported Xu Huang alone, and said solemnly: "Gongming, treat the injury first, and then talk about the military." "Cao '' looked at Xu Huang's injury, and his mood was even more solemn.
A short time later, the medic came in.
Cao 'Cao' instructed: "Come on, carry Xu Huang to the couch of the original image." โ
Cao's couch is behind the big tent.
When Xu Huang heard this, he was even more ashamed in his heart, and felt shameless to face Cao's ''.
Xu Huang was lying on the 'bed' couch, a military doctor checked Xu Huang's pulse, and a military doctor diagnosed and treated Xu Chu. Cao Cao, Xun You, Jia Xu, Cheng Yu, Cao Zhen and others all stood in the tent.
The look on everyone's face was extremely solemn.
Xu Chu's injuries were relatively relaxed, only the iron arrow on his shoulder, after pulling out the iron arrow and applying the gold sore 'medicine', the military doctor carefully bandaged it, and there was no problem.
Xu Huang's injuries are the most serious.
After the military doctor finished the diagnosis, he got up and saluted Cao Cao, and then replied, "Prime Minister, General Xu's injuries are very serious. According to the injuries inferred, General Xu was shocked and injured when he was 'fighting' with the enemy. Such internal injuries cannot be fully recovered in a month or two. There is no quick treatment, only slow recuperation. โ
Cao '' nodded, and asked Xu Huang and Xu Chu to change their clothes.
Then, Cao 'Cao' was discussing on the couch.
Cao 'Cao' looked at Xu Huang and Xu Chu and asked, "What the hell is going on, how can the whole army be wiped out?"
Xu Chu remained silent, Xu Huang took over the words, and said slowly: "Lord, let's talk about it from the last general." The last general has now figured out all the processes and understood Liu Xiu's plan. โ
Cao '' and said, "You say!"
"No!"
Xu Huang nodded, sorting out the thoughts in his head.
Jia Xu, Xun You and the others all looked at Xu Huang, with a touch of curiosity in their eyes. Xu Huang is also a general, and he is very powerful in leading troops to fight, which can wipe out Xu Huang's entire army, what kind of plan did Liu Xiu set up to frighten the world.
Xu Huang took a deep breath and said slowly: "Lord, the last general will garrison troops fifteen miles north of Xinye City. At that time, the last general got the news that Liu Xiu's soldiers had joined the Xinye battlefield, so he led the army to Xinye County to kill. โ
"Ten miles away from the county seat, I met Liu Xiu's ambush. โ
"In that place, the official road is wide, and on the right side of the official road is a stream, and the river is swollen and the water is turbulent. On the left side of the official road is a grassy hillside, which is not high, about ten feet, and the slope is also very low. โ
"The width of the official road is also close to about ten zhang. โ
Xu Huang's emotions were a little more 'agitated', and he said: "Such a wide official road is simply no pressure for the cavalry under the command of the last general, and it is the best official road for the cavalry to run." Therefore, the last general was also defenseless and advanced at full speed. โ
At that time, more than 100 Jingzhou soldiers appeared on the official road. โ
"These Jingzhou soldiers all used big yellow crossbows and used crossbow arrows to 'shoot' and attack, intending to block the 'fine' cavalry of the last general. Although the big yellow crossbow was powerful, it was impossible to stop the cavalry under the command of the last general. โ
"After a burst of killing, the 'fine' cavalry under the command of the last general broke through the 'shooting' attack of the rhubarb crossbow and approached the Jingzhou soldiers. โ
But the last general never expected that near the Jingzhou soldiers, a series of trenches had been dug up. The trenches were three feet deep and two feet wide. โ
"After the hooves of the war horse were stepped on, it was impossible to put away the horse's hooves and run in the case of fast running, so that all the war horses fell to the ground. โ
"In the cavalry camp, the most taboo thing is that the cavalry in front is 'chaotic', which will lead to a big 'chaos' in the back. In particular, the right side of the official road is a stream, and the left side is a hillside, so that the cavalry cannot be dispersed, and in this case, the cavalry is even more dangerous. โ
"At that time, the formation was 'chaotic'. โ
The lowly official immediately adjusted his strategy and ordered a reversal of direction towards the hillside. โ
"After all, the slope of the hill is not very steep, and it is completely possible to get around it by the hillside. But the last general did not expect that on the hillside, there was also a hidden Jingzhou soldier. โ
Xu Huang's face had a sad and indignant look, and he said loudly: "The Jingzhou soldiers on the hillside used javelins to 'shoot' to block the cavalry attack. They also attacked with large stones, so that the cavalry could not advance. โ
Xu Huang sighed lightly: "After a fight, the last general lost more than a thousand 'fine' riders, but he was never able to break through, and finally he could only choose to retreat." Retreating to the position of fifteen miles, it happened that General Xu Chu led a thousand 'elites' to come. โ
"General Xu Chu's 'elite' sharpness, although it is infantry, has a flexibility that war horses do not have. โ
After the last general and Xu Chu converged, they killed again. โ
"When we arrived at the battlefield ten miles away, there was no longer even a single figure in sight, and all the Jingzhou soldiers had withdrawn. The last general led the army to continue to advance, and reached a position seven miles away from the county seat, that is, the bridge where General Cao Zhen led the tiger and leopard cavalry. โ
"At that time, figures were swaying in the woods on the other side of the river, as if there was an ambush. โ
Xu Huang looked helpless on his face, and said: "The last general thought to himself, Cao Ren is still in Xinye, and he must go to the rescue." As soon as the last general gritted his teeth, he led the army to kill him, but he didn't expect that the figures in the mountains and forests were 'making' Xuanxuan, and there were no ambushes. โ
"In fact, the bridge was a key point, and at that time, the last general did not think about it and did not send troops to station. After the last general and Zhong Kang were very close to Xinye, they heard about the bridge, sent troops back to check, and found that the bridge had been destroyed. โ
"In fact, at this time, the last general should withdraw his troops. โ
But Xinye was in sight, and the last general committed the taboo of rash and underestimated the enemy, and led the army to continue to advance. โ
"When it was only three or four miles away from Xinye County, the last general met Liu Xiu, and he led his army to wait in formation on the official road. โ
"In this position, the terrain around the official road is flat, and it is difficult to ambush the soldiers. โ
Moreover, Liu Xiu led the army to line up, and the soldiers under his command met the enemy with a spear array, and all of them appeared. In this battle, Liu Xiu did not have the opportunity to set up an ambush at all. โ
Therefore, the last general did not doubt him, and ordered the cavalry to charge into battle. โ
Xu Huang said: "At that time, the last general and Liu Xiu 'exchanged' talks, and Liu Xiu also 'excited' the last general, saying that he was not afraid of cavalry. The last general was also gullible and thought that Liu Xiu was planning to meet him with a gun array. โ
However, when all the 3,000 cavalry were spread all over the official road, on both sides of the official road, soldiers suddenly appeared from the ground, and they suddenly pulled up a tripwire from the ground. โ
"Three thousand cavalry charged quickly, and as soon as they encountered a trip, the situation immediately collapsed. โ
"Even if a thousand 'elites' under Xu Chu rushed up to cover, it was already useless and could not reverse the rout. โ
"The last general thought that there was still a chance, as long as the thief captured the king first, as long as Liu Xiu was captured, he could win. But unexpectedly, the last general met a young general named Huang Hu who was holding a golden hammer. This man was in his early twenties, and the last general 'fought' with him, and in less than three moves, he was seriously injured. โ
"Fortunately, the soldiers rescued in time, otherwise the Admiral would have died under his hammer. โ
Xu Huang coughed lightly, his expression was painful, and said: "Then it's a matter of retreat, the army retreated to the river, and it happened that Cao Zhen led the tiger and leopard cavalry to arrive at the pressure formation, so Liu Xiu withdrew." However, the 5,000 'fine' cavalry was completely wiped out. โ
Xu Chu added: "The last general and the yellow tiger fought dozens of moves, but the last general was always pressed and beaten. Although he was not defeated, he continued to fight, and the defeated person must be the last general. When the general retreated, he was attacked by Liu Xiu with an arrow, so that he was seriously injured. โ
The context of the matter is clearly displayed.
After Cao 'Cao' listened, he was also silent, he didn't expect so many things to happen in this battle.
Cao Zhen suddenly spoke: "When Liu Xiu retreated, he also asked the soldiers to shout, saying that he wanted to tell the prime minister that 'Xu Huang and Xu Chu are lessons from the past'. โ
In a word, Cao '' clenched his fists.
It's too much of a deception!
Liu Xiu, this kid, really thought he was invincible?
