Chapter 618: Donglai Taishi shocked Xiahou
As for the plains, there are no bunkers? Can't ambush?
In March, in order to ensure the supply of the front line, Cao Cao forcibly recruited millions of people to engage in transportation, resulting in the tun area around Xudu also being abandoned due to the war.
The fields were full of new greenery, and the soldiers were squatting in place, and it was difficult to discover the enemy's situation without a clairglass.
What's more, Cao Xing and Long Xiang used their bodies as bait, which would distract Xiahoudun's attention.
After Long Xiang and the generals finished talking about tactics, Xu Chu stared at his eyebrows with a bitter face, he looked at the unfamiliar Lingqi in his hand, and said in his heart that he had been trapped in battle before, but he didn't expect to have a day when he was in charge of the Chinese army.
Xudu is less than seventy miles away from Yingyin, and it can be reached in half a day by a rapid march.
Xiahoudun led his troops to march slowly, and because the 20,000 people under his command were basically foot soldiers, they were only halfway away by noon.
The warm afternoon sun makes the roasting head drowsy.
Xiahoudun knew that Long Xiang was cunning, and he had been highly nervous since he left the city, and he was easily tired after staring at one eye for a long time.
Persisted for a long time, and finally blinked his eyelids.
After shaking his head several times, Xiahoudun was still blinking, so he hurriedly grabbed the reins of the horse and prepared to order a rest on the spot.
Just stationed on the horse, the patrol scout suddenly came to warn.
Two miles to the northwest, a group of rangers approached quickly.
When Xiahoudun heard that there was an enemy, he hurriedly stared at it, and sure enough, more than 20 horsemen galloped over.
"Array, ready for battle."
Soon after the general order was handed down, the twenty or so horses rushed to the front.
The leader of the general dressed up as before, which reminded Xiahou of the past, and immediately gritted his teeth and showed a fierce appearance.
"It's you!"
"Blind, it's really you, you're not dead?"
Cao Xuan pressed the gun and held the saddle, looking at Xiahoudun's army without fear, and his words were full of mockery.
Xiahou clenched the hilt of the knife in his hand, and the cold light in his single eye under his eyebrows seemed to be snorting from his nostrils.
"Cao Xing, I'm about to take revenge, I don't want you to take the initiative to seek death, so stay with me when you come."
"Just you? Just a defeated general, and you also want to seek revenge on this general? Hmph, idiot dreams." Cao Xing left a cruel word, and hurriedly pulled the reins and walked quickly, "Let's go, drive!" ”
Xiahoudun thought that he was decided, but he didn't expect Cao Xing to be so resolute, and immediately chased after him, he raised his knife and scolded while chasing:
"Piff, if you are not afraid of me, why are you running around?"
"Hehe, the master is in a good mood today, and he decided to let you go, don't be delusional about leaving the master, be careful of your only remaining right eye."
Cao Xing's right hand hooked the horse's neck, turned around and shook the longbow in his left hand towards Xiahoudun, his relaxed expression and arrogant tone pierced Xiahoudun's body like an ice pick.
Seeing Cao Xing dancing the bow with one hand, Xiahoudun subconsciously reined to control the speed of the war horse, but soon urged the horse to chase after him.
"Piff! Hugh away! ”
It was during this pause that the general behind him followed, and reminded Xiahoudun loudly: "Cao Xing comes and goes in a hurry, the general beware of deception, it may be Long Xiang's plan, maybe there is an ambush ahead." ”
"Here on the plain, at the end of the day, I can't see an ambush?"
Xiahou Dun's one-eyed eyes seemed to shoot flames, and he retorted and followed the general to issue a military order: "Order all the cavalry to chase after me, and you will quickly follow with the main force, and I will slash the enemy today." ”
"Yui"
The general did not dare to disobey the will of the superiors, so he had to act according to Xiahoudun's orders.
Xiahoudun chased after him, Cao Xing fled in front, he looked back from time to time, and kept the distance between the two sides at about two zhang.
It is said that Cao Xing has few soldiers, and Xiahoudun has many chasing troops, so he can volley in a roundabout way, or shoot on horseback in the rear.
This scene is like a horse race in Tianji, Cao Xing's reconnaissance battalion is a good horse, and Cao Cao took away all the good horses in the rear, and the war horses left for Xiahoudun cannot be said to be very bad, but there is a certain gap in the endurance speed of the front-line cavalry mounts.
As for the advanced skill of cavalry archery, there are a small number of people in Cao's camp who have mastered it, and most of them are the elite Wuhuan who surrendered in the north.
Cao Xing's speed in front of him was not fast, but Xiahoudun chased for eight or nine miles and couldn't catch up, he chased and chased and beat a drum in his heart.
Cao Xing, this husband, should he really be strategic?
When Xiahoudun was thinking, his relatives suddenly reminded loudly:
"General, look, Cao Xing's reinforcements have arrived."
"Huh?"
Xiahoudun looked at it, and there were indeed dozens of cavalry in front of him, and they still didn't play the flag like Cao Xing.
Sure enough, there is a fraud!
Xiahoudun had more than 100 horsemen to follow, and counting Cao Xing's reinforcements in front, Xiahou still had a military advantage.
But thinking of the eight or nine miles away, he thought that Cao Xing's actions were really weird, and he couldn't lead himself into a trap.
Doubts arose in his heart, and there was immediately movement in his hand.
Xiahoudun had just tightened the reins of his horse, but he found that Cao Xuan was also slowing down, and waved and shouted to the support army.
"General Long, come and save me!"
You husband, do you know how to be afraid? Hum
No, Cao Xuan called General Long, wouldn't that be.
The three words of General Long made Xiahou stop teasing in his heart, and hurriedly confirmed it with the remaining one-eyed.
I saw that Long Xiang, who was nearly thirty years old, had grown a beard, but his facial features had been engraved in Xiahoudun's memory.
That's right, it's him.
"Long Xiang! You traitor! ”
"Oh? But he knows me, and this blind man knows me so well."
Long Xiang pointed his gun at Xiahou Xuan, and deliberately met Cao Xing's inquiry, his contemptuous expression was natural, as if he really didn't remember.
Cao Xingxin said Good guy, you are really immortal, and your performance is so realistic, Xiahou is not so angry that he jumps to his feet?
"You don't remember? He was Xiahoudun, who was shot blind by the last general."
"It turned out to be him, and now he is not dead?"
Long Xiang's superb acting skills were like slapping Xiahou in public, which finally made his anger occupy reason, and his manic emotions were out of control at this moment.
"I won't die if you die."
Xiahou shouted loudly, and took Long Xiang with a sword on his horse, "I want to eat raw meat today!" ”
"The tone is not small, it depends on how many catties you have."
Long Xiang's eyes shook off Cao Xuan, and suddenly he raised his gun and went straight to Xiahou Xuan.
While!
Xiahou Xuan's heavy knife fell, and was pushed away by Long Xiang with the handle of the gun, and then muttered to himself:
"This blind man hasn't seen him for many years, but his strength is growing? It's unreasonable."
"If you don't engage in sneak attacks, you're nothing!"
Xiahou was afraid to see Long Xiang's words, and was looking forward to the second round of fighting, but the other party actually pulled the reins back and wanted to escape.
"Let's go, the blind man's martial arts are advancing by leaps and bounds, you can't continue to entangle here, maybe Xu Zhongkang can fight the enemy, let's go to Yingyin to move the rescue soldiers!"
Well? Long Xiang is ashamed of himself, am I equal to Xu Chu's martial arts? What are you afraid of?
The two enemies were close to each other, and they were complimented by Long Xiang again.
Xiahoudun instantly became enthusiastic, he thought that he had almost no opponent at that moment, so he ignored the advice and fought to catch up.
After chasing the enemy for four or five miles, Long Xiang and Cao Xuan scattered left and right halfway, and Xiahoudun naturally only stared at the main master.
At this time, the sound of horses' hooves in the southwest was rapid.
Xiahoudun turned his head and glanced at it, mistakenly thinking that Cao Xing was going and returning, and said in his heart that Long Xiang's mount must be a good horse, and it would be difficult for the other party to catch up when he escaped with peace of mind, so it was better to retreat and seek the second.
"Kill Cao Xing first, and then capture Long Xiang!"
Xiahoudun waved his knife and pointed at it, turned around and galloped his horse, wanting to catch Cao Xing off guard.
Suddenly, the two horses crossed their necks, and the two soldiers clashed.
There was a crunch.
The tip of the spear picks the tip of the knife like an antelope hanging horns, and it is incredibly dexterous.
Xiahoudun saw his opponent clearly at this time, his face was handsome and resolute, with long hair and flowing hair, which was different from Xu Chu in Zhang Liao's mouth, not to mention that Xu Chu was used to using big knives.
This look! This marksmanship! Far from being unknown!
"Who are you?"
"Donglai Tai Shi Ci!"
