Chapter 39: Killing Hou Cheng and seizing it

In front of everyone's eyes, before the two armies faced each other.

On the side of the township soldiers, Wei Shi personally beat drums for Wei Yan to help in the battle, and on the Cao cavalry side, there were also generals shouting and shouting.

At this time, Hou Cheng's face was ugly.

Wei Yan's skills were taught by him as early as the last time he broke through.

Seriously, if it weren't for the help of a group of subordinates, he really wouldn't be Wei Yan's opponent.

In terms of age alone, Wei Yan is now about twenty-five or six years old, belonging to the period of young adults, and he Hou Cheng has already passed forty, and he is almost close to fifty, and his peak has passed, how can he be Wei Yan's opponent.

"Kill the thief!"

"Kill the thief!"

After two shouts, Wei Yan and Hou Cheng each urged the war horses to rush forward face to face.

Hou Cheng knew that his strength was not as good as Wei Yan's, and when he raised the knife, he only shook a false move, and then the big knife was twisted and slashed Wei Yan's elbow from an unexpected angle on the left side.

This move is similar to the battle style of the halberd move, it is Hou Cheng's trick to steal the halberd drawn by Wen Hou Lu Bu Fang Tian, and it is very powerful.

Wei Yan's black-patterned knife slashed straight down, but it didn't sweep to Hou Cheng's weapon, and when he glanced at the corner of his eye, he saw a cold light coming, and he was in a hurry, and he turned the blade of the knife horizontally, just forcing Hou Cheng's blade.

"Choke!"

There was a crisp sound from the handover of weapons.

On Wei Yan's side, the blade of the black-patterned knife only moved slightly, and there was no big problem.

Hou Cheng's place, the edge of the iron knife collided with the thick and sturdy black pattern knife shaft, but it burst out of a gap, which made Hou Cheng feel heartbroken.

This knife has been fighting with him for many years, although he has killed countless enemies, but the internal wear and tear of the knife has also reached the limit.

Just now, he was only concerned about winning, but he didn't expect Wei Yan to block this sharp attack.

The two of you come and go, and there are more than 20 battles, and they make judgments.

Not an opponent in weapons.

In terms of strength, he is not an opponent.

Hou Cheng's battle was extremely aggrieved.

Just as he was about to make a false move and prepare to escape, he suddenly heard a rapid sound of war drums, it turned out that Wei Shi saw Wei Yan showing his might in front of the formation, and the sound of beating war drums became higher and higher.

Wei Yan's fighting spirit rose, urging the war horse, raising a big knife, and splitting Huashan.

Hou Cheng was frightened, and when he didn't have time to dodge, he slammed the iron knife horizontally, but was picked up and flew up, and then, Wei Yan was even more unforgiving, and smashed Hou Cheng under the horse with a sweep.

Then, before Hou Cheng could get up, Wei Yan had already slashed off his neck with a knife, and suddenly rose to the sky with a pillar of blood, and his head rolled down to the side of the road, and Hou Cheng's unwilling eyes were still staring.

"General Wei is mighty!"

"Color! Color! ”

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

In the formation of the township soldiers, the sound of cheers came and went, Wei Shi saw that he had won the heads-up, and immediately ordered someone to let go of the cart and lead the township soldiers to come forward.

In the rear of Cao Qi, Hou Yin heard a tsunami-like shout from the mountain in front of the formation, and learned that Wei Yan had won Hou Yin, and immediately gathered with the Bears Ears Mountain Kou people.

After Hou Cheng's defeat, the situation on the battlefield was abruptly reversed.

Wei Shi, Wei Yan, and Hou Yin marched in three ways to encircle and annihilate the rest of Hou Cheng, and Cao Cai, who had no fighting spirit at this time, fled one after another, even if his back and horse buttocks were exposed in front of the enemy, he was powerless to take care of it.

This chase lasted for nearly an hour and a half.

In the end, Cao Cai was annihilated by more than 700 horsemen, and the remaining 100 horsemen were considered to be running fast, and finally escaped back to Xiahoulan's camp, but they were already soaked, and their armor and robes and war horses were covered in blood.

In this battle, Wei Shi's township soldiers first defended the royal service, and then attacked quickly, surrounded a Cao cavalry, and counted the results after the battle, so that Wei Cheng, Wei Gong and others smiled.

They are used to being poor, but this time they finally got rich.

The last time on Jun Mountain, although the Cao army failed to attack the mountain, when they retreated down the mountain, they robbed many dead soldiers, so although the township soldiers had the first battle, they had not yet received real benefits.

Among Cao Cai, no less than 400 people died in the chaotic battle, and more than 100 were captured, and the rest either fled back or scattered.

The seizure of war horses, including wounded horses, totaled 311 horses, and 93 dead horses.

In addition, there are more than 400 pieces of armor, weapons and other baggage of the dead Cao Qi.

This is only the capture of the township soldiers, and Hou Yin's side, because of the advantage of copying the back road, will not get less benefits.

Wei Cheng, Wei Gong and others looked at the mountains of seizures, and they all smiled from ear to ear.

"Come on, load the corpses of these Cao soldiers into the cart, and when you get to Xinye City, you can sell them for a good price?" Compared with others, Wei Shi was a little dissatisfied with the results of this battle.

Although the war horse is good, he can't afford to raise so many now.

These seizures, it seems that they can only find Liu Biao and Liu Bei, and strive to sell them at a good price, so as not to let the township soldiers and brothers work in vain.

It was precisely because they were busy catching prisoners and war horses, whether Wei Shi or Hou Yin, they couldn't kill outside Xinye City at the first time, so that Xiahou Lan had a chance to escape.

——

Outside Xinye City, Cao Ying.

Near night, Xia Houlan learned that Hou Cheng had been defeated, and more than half of the eight hundred elite horsemen had been lost, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.

He went out this time, with a total of 1,005 men and horses, and now he lost half of them in a blink of an eye, although there are still seven or eight hundred foot soldiers left, but with this little strength alone, and there is no mobile advantage, how can he resist Wei Shi, who is like a wolf and a tiger.

Thinking of this, Xiahoulan hurriedly pulled out the camp overnight, in order to confuse the defenders of Xinye City, Xiahoulan deliberately left Wang Xian to guard the camp, and ordered the captured healthy women and people to make noise all night to prepare for the siege.

This mobile phone change tactic made the Xinye defenders who didn't know what was happening outside the city nervous for a night.

Fu Wei went to the city several times to look out, heard Cao Ying's movements, and wanted to lead his troops to kill, but they were stopped by Liu Yan, Mi Fang and others who were frightened.

"Cao Ying's abnormal movement must be deceitful, whether it is to lure our army out of the city and gather and annihilate, the top priority is to defend the city, and when General Zhao Yun arrives, the Cao army outside the city will inevitably be defeated."

Shinno was besieged.

Mi Zhen sent Wei Yan to ask Wei Shi for help, and Liu Yan and the others did not slack off, and hurriedly reported to Liu Bei in the direction of Wancheng.

After receiving the urgent report that Xinye was besieged and the military situation was extremely urgent, Liu Bei urgently discussed with the military adviser Xu Shu, and finally decided to transfer Zhao Yun's troops from the Bowangpo front line to return to Xinye.

Xiahou Lan hurriedly retreated to Yexian, and the direction of the march was just opposite Zhao Yun.

When the two armies met north of Wancheng, Zhao Yun's white horse and silver spear, like a tiger into the flock, immediately killed the Xiahoulan army, which had long lost its fighting spirit, and fled in defeat, and even Xiahoulan himself was captured alive by Zhao Yunsheng.

However, this subsequent war has nothing to do with Wei Shi.

At this time, he was in Xinye City, accepting the banquet of Mi Zhu and Mi Zhen brothers and sisters, Wei Yan, Fu Wei and other generals of Liu Bei's army, who were also happily accompanying him, talking about Wei Yan's feat of beheading Hou Cheng.
