Chapter 142: Blood and Chaos (6)
"Kill!" Liu Bei was chatting with Guan Yu in the camp, when a shout of killing suddenly appeared, making Liu Guan and the others confused.
"What's going on? Could it be that Yuan Shu sent troops? Liu Bei hesitated, he and Guan Yu had been leading the soldiers to be stationed here for more than a month, Yuan Shu had no news, and the army never left the city, the two of them were the same as agreed, holding each other back, but never handing over troops!
"Big brother, be careful, I'll go out and have a look!" After Guan Erye finished speaking, he walked out of the camp with his Qinglong Yanyue Knife!
Guan Yu was a little blinded when he came out, I don't know when the front of the camp was densely packed with Huainan troops, and I saw no less than 50,000 people neatly arranged in front, a general at the front, holding a three-pointed two-edged knife, a horse under his crotch, his eyes were blazing, he was really a fierce general, and the person who came was the first general under Huainan Yuan Shu, Ji Ling!
"Liu Bei villageman, who gave you the courage to dare to invade my Huainan territory! Beware of your family's General Ji Ling's big knife and don't recognize people! Ji Ling saw that Liu Bei's army had moved, and he thought that Liu Bei had come out, so he directly scolded!
"How can it be!" Hearing this, Liu Bei was called a crooked, he was called King Jing of Zhongshan, a dignified Han family clan, a relative of the emperor and a country, and he was called a village man here! At the moment, he was also angry
"According to the edict of the Son of Heaven, Huainan Yuan Shu has a heart of disobedience, and he specially came to crusade! Ji Ling, you help the abuse, it's not a pity to die! If you lead the troops to surrender now, I can still intercede for you in front of the Son of Heaven! ”
"Haha! Liu Bei Villager, your joke is not funny at all! Who doesn't know that now Cao Cao is coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, don't say that I don't believe in this edict, even a three-year-old child won't believe it! Ji Ling sneered
"Hmph, it's useless to talk too much, if you don't surrender, break the city, and the chickens and dogs won't stay!" Guan Yu snorted coldly, Danfeng's eyes were full of murderous intent, because this Ji Ling didn't respect the order of the Son of Heaven!
"I'm afraid you won't make it!" Ji Ling shouted, holding a three-pointed two-edged knife, and killed Liu Bei who had just come out!
"Liu is killed, eat me with a knife!" Ji Ling burst into a shout, the fast horse rushed directly into battle, Guan Yu was not ambiguous, his legs were raised, and the yellow horse under his crotch was also out of the ranks, and the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in his hand greeted him!
"Scandium!" The two big knives slammed together, Ji Ling felt that his arms were numb, and the tiger's mouth was almost cracked, and now he understood that his strength was not as good as this red-faced man!
"Whoever comes, report the name, my subordinates will not kill the nameless rats!" Ji Lingdao, at the same time, shook his hands without a trace, relieving his numb arms!
"Guan Yu Guan Yunchang!" The second master said proudly
"Hehe" Ji Ling sneered, feeling a little stunned, after all, after the Tiger Prison Guan Sanying fought against Lu Bu, this Liu Guanzhang's fame has become a lot greater, especially Guan Yu is a master among the three!
"Look at you as a man, I will also meet you, the legendary Guan Yunchang, today!" After saying that, Ji Ling made the first move, the war horse rushed forward, and the three-pointed and two-edged knife rushed towards Guan Yu's façade, making the people behind applaud!
"It's good to come!" Looking at the amazing knife in front of him, Guan Yu not only did not panic, but felt excited in his heart, he knew that this was because he had to react after meeting a master. As soon as Guan Yu's big knife waved, Ji Ling felt as if a flash of lightning flashed in the air, and the big knife in his hand trembled, it turned out that Guan Yu used the Qinglong Yanyue Knife to push his three-pointed two-edged knife aside! Ji Ling didn't wait for the move to be old, and with a wave of his backhand, the big knife wiped towards Guan Yu's neck again!
Guan Yu's eyes flashed with a gleam, and his breathing was tight, he didn't expect this Ji Ling martial arts to be so skillful, so he quickly clamped his legs between the war horse, came to an iron plate bridge, and his body lay on the horse's back! At the same time, the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in his hand slashed out from the bottom up, slashing towards Ji Ling's façade when there was no room for it! A murderous aura struck, and the wind brought by the big knife made Ji Ling's face hurt, Ji Ling didn't dare to slack off, and the big knife in his hand couldn't be recovered, so he had to take the reins and take the war horse aside, and narrowly avoided Guan Yu's knife!
"Haha!" Looking at Ji Ling, who was a little embarrassed, Guan Yu also laughed, although it was just a few moves, but it was dangerous and abnormal, and if he was not careful, he would die on the spot, but now it seems that he still has the upper hand!
Hearing Guan Yu's laughter, Ji Ling became angry and struggled forward, and the two fought for thirty rounds in a blink of an eye! Liu Bei's side is only one general, although he is also a little forceful, but compared with this group of generals, it is a little not enough, looking at the two people fighting in the field, Liu Bei wants to recruit generals more and more!
Unknowingly, the two fought for 80 rounds, and they both understood that no one could help anyone, so they had to return to the battle. Ji Ling ordered the deputy general Xun Zheng, Lei Bo, and Chen Lan to lead the troops to attack, Liu Bei to meet the battle, the two armies had a big battle, Guan Yu beheaded Xun Zheng, but Liu Bei's soldiers were not as good as the Huainan army, they were defeated, and retreated thirty miles, Ji Ling took the opportunity to advance, and finally the two armies refused, Ji Ling asked Yuan Shu for credit, and also asked for the next battle plan, after all, it was the boundary of Xuzhou again!
Just when Liu Bei and Ji Ling were fighting, Cheng Yu and Xu Huang also quietly killed Runan with a large army, Xu Huang Xu Gongming, was originally Yang Feng's general, and the last time Chengfeng also wanted to dig a corner, but this Yang Feng finally chose to take refuge in Cao Cao, although he defected to Lu Buna, but this Xu Huang was left behind by Liu Xie, the emperor of Han Xian, and now Xu Huang is the cavalry captain of the Han Dynasty.
"General Xu, what questions do you have?" Cheng Yu looked at the young general in front of him and asked, in fact, he didn't understand in his heart, why did Cao Cao want to line Xu Huang to lead the troops this time, did he want to get rid of Liu Xie's people with his own hands?
"Sir, now that we have left Xuchang and gone all the way south to attack Runan, the distance in between is hundreds of miles, but we have never seen any scouts along the way, is Yuan Shu not prepared at all?" Xu Huang said, this way can be said to be smooth sailing, not to mention the battle, not even a single soldier has been seen
"Hehe, the general doesn't know anything!" Cheng Yu smiled bitterly, and then said helplessly, "Runan was slaughtered twice by the Yellow Turban Army, coupled with the plague and famine in this world, there are not many people who can survive, let alone those government soldiers!" Today's Runan is still the people who moved over by the Yuan family, and this has restored the appearance of a big city! ”
"Alas! It's a pity for the people of the world! If these princes have half of the Marquis of Xiaoyao, then the world will be peaceful! Xu Huang sighed, and at the same time, a young figure appeared in his heart, it was a commander who gave up chasing and killing the enemy army in order to save the victims, and a Hou Ye who cared about the world!
Cheng Yu frowned, a little helpless, it seems that this Xu Huang feels good about Cheng Feng, "What does General Xu feel about Xiaoyaohou?" Cheng Yu asked casually
"Talent! The commander of the revival of the Han Dynasty, as long as he is there, the Han is there! Xu Huang opened his mouth without thinking about it, after all, Chengfeng Zhao Yun is now known as the new generation of imperial doubles, and in the hearts of all soldiers, he is a benchmark, and Xu Huang also admires this person who is not a few years older than himself in his heart!
"That's a bit of an exaggeration, isn't it? After all, is the Son of Heaven still there? Cheng Yu said a little unpleasantly
"Humph! Mr. is also a pillar of talent, a well-educated man, and knows everything about the art of war, but doesn't Mr. understand this? Xu Huang also snorted coldly, he saw Cao Cao's thoughts thoroughly, he stayed purely to protect the Son of Heaven, if he hadn't sent someone under the fence now, maybe he would have cut this Cheng Yu a long time ago!
"You!" Cheng Yu was furious and shocked, it seems that this Xu Huang is not so easy to fool! Many people think that Cao Cao's five great strategists are just simple literati, but this Cheng Yu is both civil and military!
Cheng Yuzi Zhongde, a native of Dong'e County, Yanzhou (now Dong'e County, Shandong Province), was a strategist, famous minister, and general of Cao Wei from the late Eastern Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period. His real name is Cheng Li, and he changed his name to Cheng Yu because he was holding the sun in Mount Tai in his dream. He once led the people to fight against the Yellow Turbans in Dong'a. In the third year of Chuping (192), he was conquered by Cao Cao as Shouzhang Ling, and since then he has made suggestions and conquered the Quartet. When Cao Cao conquered Xuzhou, Cheng Yu and Xun Yu stayed in the rear, blocked the armies of Lu Bu and Chen Gong, and kept the three cities. After Cao Cao moved Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to Xudu, he appointed Cheng Yu as Shangshu, and later as the general of Dongzhong Lang, leading Jiyin Taishou and supervising Yanzhou affairs. After pacifying Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, he worshiped as General Fenwu and was named the Marquis of Anguo Pavilion. In the first year of the early Huang Dynasty (220), Cao Pi was proclaimed emperor of the Han Dynasty, worshiped Cheng Yu as the captain of the guard, and entered the Marquis of Anxiang. Died in the same year at the age of 80, Cao Pi also shed tears for it, posthumously presented the general of the chariot cavalry, and said Su. Cheng Yu is resourceful and good at judging big things. Rigid personality, with many people. During the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, only Cheng Yu, Cao Ren, and Yuan Lian were evaluated as Yongguan Benyu.
Cheng Yu's big hands were clenched, his fingers were white, the sword in his hand was crunched, his eyes were squinted, looking at Xu Huang, he couldn't wait to kill him with a sword, and now Cheng Yu was completely sure to kill Xu Huang, but he still didn't receive Cao Cao's order, whether to subdue Xu Huang this time, or take the opportunity to get rid of him, now seeing Xu Huang's attitude, Cheng Yu has sentenced Xu Huang to death in his heart!
"What? You're going to do it with me? Do you dare? Xu Huang looked at Cheng Yu's expression and sneered, although he was not afraid of Cheng Yu, and he was sure that he would be able to retreat, but he didn't know how many of his soldiers were Cao Cao's people, and if he beheaded Cheng Yu, would he cause trouble for the Son of Heaven!
"You also know that the enemy is current, if you make trouble out of nothing, then General Ben will be the Son of Heaven and send you to accompany Prime Minister Cao's father!" Xu Huang sneered, the smell of gunpowder between the two is getting stronger and stronger!
"Report! General Qiyu, the whereabouts of the enemy army were found thirty miles away from the camp, the number of people is unknown, and the target is unknown! Just when the relationship between the two became more and more tense, and they started to do it if they didn't agree with each other, the scout came to report,
"Huh? What's the situation? Hurry up and find out, if you still don't know anything next time, you don't have to come back! Cheng Yu said murderously, obviously spreading the anger he received in Xu Huang on Xiaobing!
"Someone! Prepare the horses! General Ben is going to go out and see for himself! Xu Huang didn't want to be with this Cheng Yu in ink,
"Kill!" Before he could get out of the camp, Xu Huang heard a burst of shouts and killings, and waves of sound came from all directions, as if there were thousands of troops around!
"Hold your ground! The Chinese army is standing still, the left and right armies are moving closer to the Chinese army, and there are those who move around at will, behead! Those who disturb the morale of the army, slash! Loud noiser, slash! Those who do not obey military orders will be beheaded! Xu Huang said loudly, several in a row, even Cheng Yu couldn't help nodding, this Xu Huang really has the talent of a general!
"Attack! Kill it! Seeing that Cao's army was a little chaotic, Yuan Shu personally commanded the army and entered from the left flank, and at the same time Yuan Shu ordered his general Zhang Xun's cavalry to attack Xu Huang's army!
Yuan Jun is so rich, although the equipment is not as good as Chengfeng, but it is not much different from Cao Cao, plus Yuan Jun has good food, these people are fat and strong, and they also have a slight advantage over Cao Jun.
Although Xu Huang's order was timely, the army was tired of marching for many days, and coupled with the hasty battle, it fell into disadvantage at once, and Cao Cao did not equip Xu Huang with any tiger and leopard cavalry this time, resulting in Xu Huang's army orders not being conveyed for a while, Cheng Yu was happy to see Xu Huang make a fool of himself, and he didn't say a word, but the sword in his hand kept harvesting people's heads!
Xu Huang personally carried the big axe, rushed left and right, blocked Yuan Shu's attack, at this time there was no use for any strategy, only to ensure that the Chinese army is not chaotic, and the banner does not fall is the right reason, if this banner is overturned by Yuan Shu, it will be difficult to clean up the situation!
"Listen to my orders and fire the arrows! The shield soldier pressed fifty steps forward! Xu Huang said angrily, saying that he didn't understand anything, when did this Yuan Shu give himself a round!
"Shoot the arrows! All the army is attacking! Just shoot it, don't kill it! Yuan Shu ordered someone to shout, these words made Cheng Yu frown, sure enough, this Yuan Shu is the most difficult to deal with, and he is really a person with no lower limit! In war, the commander is not afraid of the death of soldiers, the most feared is that the soldiers are injured, because not only do they have to send people to take care of them, but also affect morale, so there were very few wounded soldiers in ancient times, and they were basically killed with a knife, even if they were teammates just now!
"Bastard thing!" Xu Huang was furious, but he was helpless, seeing the archers of the Yuan army attacking, and the people on his side fell one after another, even if these people were Cao Cao's army, Xu Huang was a little unbearable in his heart, after all, they were all the people of the Han Dynasty!
"General, it's time for us to withdraw!" Cheng Yu sighed and said, although it was not pleasing to look at Xu Huang, he also knew that if he explained all these people here, it would be difficult to explain to Cao Cao when he went back!
"Okay!" Xu Huang smiled bitterly, wanting to cry without tears, the first time he commanded the army, he was beaten to the bottom, watching a group of people being knocked down, Xu Huang understood that defeat was just a matter of time or later, and now he can keep some more people when he retreats!
"The rear army becomes the front army, and the whole army retreats!" Xu Huang held his breath and said, although it was not a long time, but this time his side lost a third of the people!
"Want to go?" Yuan Shu touched the blood on a sword, and said with a sinister smile, "Ordering the rear army to attack, I want to leave all these people here!" The murderous aura in his words made the surrounding soldiers shudder!
"Boom!" Xu Huang was retreating, just counting the supplies and men, before he could speak, there was another burst of cannons, and then he saw a group of Yuan troops coming from the front, and Yuan Shu also personally led the army to kill from the rear, just two attacks!
Xu Huang was brave and fierce, and personally carried a big axe to kill the general, but was dragged by Zhang Xun and others, Yuan Shu tried his best to kill and injure Cao Jun, Cheng Yu did not have the appearance of a literati at this time, his long hair fluttered, his face was full of murderous energy, like a general who took the lead in the charge!
"Sprint with all your strength and break through the encirclement!" Cheng Yu was the arrow, and after Xu Huang pressed it, he led Cao Jun all the way to dig deep, and finally killed it when Yuan Shu joined forces!
Looking at Cao Jun who was leaving, Yuan Shu smiled coldly, and gave the order to attack with all his might, biting Cao Jun to the death, not letting them have the slightest time to rest, Xu Huang Cheng Yu In order to delay Yuan Shu's pursuit, he threw money, food and materials everywhere along the way, but Yuan Shu was a bent pursuit and killing, and only let the two of them scold their mother!
Xu Huang couldn't remember how many times he had rushed out of the encirclement, and Yuan Shu behind him was chasing him like a wild dog, and he was fighting in the dark all night, and he didn't know where he went!
"Whew!" Cheng Yu let out a sigh of relief, he was finally safe, "Quickly inquire and see where this is, and take advantage of Yuan Jun's arrival, hurry up and make a fire to cook!" ”
"General! We've lost all our food and grass! This is the northern suburb of Runan County, and further north is Yingchuan! A veteran said, this is his hometown, he will dream of it, and he will never forget it!
"What a Yuan Shu, he actually beat us back!" Xu Huang clenched his fists hard, very angry, this fight was too aggrieved!
"Report! Yuan Shu's army is less than ten miles away from us! And "The scout glanced at Cheng Yu and didn't dare to speak
"And what?"
"Yuan Shu has already sent troops to cut off our way back, and now we are alone!"
"What?" Xu Huang's face changed greatly, this was something he would never have thought of, he knew that Yuan Shu was a straw bag, how could he be so powerful!
"Hehe, sure enough! There is no vanity under the fame, even if Yuan Shu is mediocre and incompetent, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse! Cheng Yu smiled bitterly, Yuan Shu was able to become the first prince in the late Han Dynasty, not only with the help of the Yuan family, in history, the Yuan family was more to help Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu basically developed by himself! And now the Yuan family is more about helping Yuan Shu, which makes him even more arrogant!
"Mr. Cheng, what do you think should happen now?" People have to bow their heads under the eaves, Xu Huang really has no way, it's okay to let him charge into battle now, he is not good at this kind of food, otherwise he wouldn't have joined the army for a bite to eat!
"Let's find out the enemy first! Yuan Shu is doing his best to surround and kill us this time, it seems that we have become the target of Yuan Shu's prestige and anger! Cheng Yu said helplessly
"Order, kill the wounded war horses and eat horse meat. Scout speed to scout the terrain and prepare for the breakout! Cheng Yu thought about it and ordered
"Yes!"
The Yuan army was surrounded from all sides, and Cheng Yu and Xu Huang could only choose a suitable place to hold on, and at the same time report the situation to Cao Cao and ask for support!
