Chapter 14: Annihilating Liu Xun

Guan Yu rushed all the way to a hundred steps outside the gate of the village with his robe, and even took advantage of the gap in the camp infantry patrol to divide some subordinates and use hooks and ropes to pull a few horses and antlers.

Then with a shout, he violently tore the horses and antlers to the ground, and even tore down a few wooden fence stakes buried in the rammed earth that served as camp walls.

"Kill!" Guan Yu shouted, and jumped into the gap in the camp wall that was torn over the wooden fence stakes,

"Kill!" The cavalry behind him was also full of morale and swarmed in from the position they had just destroyed.

The infantry patrolling the battalion finally reacted and immediately rushed to the shouting place.

But they didn't know how many enemies were coming, Guan Yu brandished the Qinglong Knife and flew left and right, and immediately cut seven or eight enemies in a row.

"Set it on fire! Grab the torch of the thief and set it on fire! ”

Guan Yu was slashing and slashing, and at the same time, his mind was quite agile and shouted.

He noticed that the torches carried by his cavalry might have been damp because they had not been lit all the way. But the infantry patrols of the Yuan army that were killed just now were patrolling the camp walls at night with torches.

In this case, snatch Yuan Jun's torches on the spot, burn Yuan Jun's camp, and make the chaos even bigger!

The cavalry under his command was inspired by Guan Yu's order, and immediately did as he said. While rushing to kill and shouting, he set fire to it.

……

"What a move! Why is there a commotion in the army? ”

Liu Xun woke up from his sleep in a daze, and scolded loudly with official authority.

Until this moment, he still did not have the consciousness that "he has been attacked".

But this can't be blamed on him, he was originally a civil official, and he worked all the way from the county magistrate and county guard. Now the main official position given to him by Yuan Shu is "Lujiang Taishou".

Liu Xun's sense of smell on the battlefield is naturally much worse than that of a full-time military general like Ji Ling.

However, after he arrived in Huaiyin, because he didn't need to think about the problem of strong attack for the time being, he only planned to besiege it. Therefore, the location where he camped and the distance from Huaiyin City were also farther away from the city than Ji Ling's camp.

After all, when Ji Ling set up camp at the beginning, he still considered deploying a strong attack, the camp was too far away from the city, and it would be too troublesome to build siege weapons and transport them to the front line.

Liu Xun really couldn't figure out why there were enemies who were willing to go far away. Even if you want to rob the camp, you should pick the Ji Ling camp that is easier to get your hands on, right?

But that's exactly what happened.

With the sound of noise and shouting, accompanied by the flames, and gradually reflecting a glimmer on the curtain of the Chinese military camp, Liu Xun finally came to his senses.

"Where is Chen Lan? Why didn't the patrol detect the enemy attack! The battalions quickly lined up to meet the enemy! ”

Liu Xun hurriedly scolded the attendants around him, asked the attendants to drape them for him, and then issued several inconsistent and chaotic military orders while wearing them.

After a while, he asked the battalions to assemble and line up, and then he remembered that it seemed that it would be too much time, and it was better to resist on the spot by fighting separately.

It can only be said that when you don't wake up, you are suddenly forced to get up, and your brain will be confused for a while.

While Liu Xun's troops were fighting separately, Guan Yu had already put fire everywhere. When Liu Xun hastily put on his armor and went out of the tent, more than a dozen fires had risen in his eyes, and he didn't know how many enemy troops were attacking in the dark.

"Why is there movement everywhere? How many soldiers and horses does Liu Bei have? ”

Liu Xun rushed to his brain with a burst of blood, and when he was frightened, he suddenly felt that among the many noisy sounds, there was a rumbling sound of iron hooves that was particularly obvious, and it became louder and louder from far to near.

He still had the common sense to lead the troops, and immediately realized that there was a large force of cavalry rushing towards his Chinese camp.

"Crossbowmen and crossbowmen defend themselves against the enemy! Be sure to fight to the death and not retreat! Liu Xun roared loudly, making all the guards around him stand by, and even drew his sword to kill the two who ran around.

He had realized that this was his last hope to prevent the collapse of the whole battalion.

There is no formal camp wall between the tents of the Chinese army and the tents on the periphery.

But Liu Xun has a bit of experience in leading troops, so when he set up camp, he also knew that he used a baggage vehicle to circle around the Central Military Region - when Gan Ning's hundred horsemen robbed Cao's camp in another time and space, he couldn't break through to Cao Cao's Chinese army, and it was precisely because Cao Cao used the same trick that he surrounded the Chinese army's big tent with canes when he camped.

The obstacles formed by these vehicles made it impossible for cavalry to rush in quickly, and they could only break through a few intersections that were reserved for entry and exit.

There are usually a few rejection horses at those intersections, but after all, rejection horses are lighter than large cars, and it is easy to move away when they want to pass.

Liu Xun also knew where his weakness was, so he asked the crossbowmen to be on guard with their canes, shoot freely, and then gathered all the spearmen and shields of the Chinese army to the gaps where there were no canes and only horses were rejected, hoping to hold it.

As for the camp on the periphery, he couldn't take care of it for the time being, so he let Liu Beijun, who didn't know much, rush to kill casually. Only by stabilizing the Chinese army can there be hope.

However, the enemy on the opposite side obviously did not intend to let Liu Xun get his wish.

In the dark night, Liu Xun ordered the soldiers to line up and gag their mouths, but they couldn't do it like their fingers after all. Many soldiers were just driven to the battlefields where they were blocked, but they couldn't find their robes at all, and they didn't know the soldiers, they just stood there casually with guns and spears and didn't know what to do.

Because there is no subordination, the soldiers have just been woken up, everyone is not fully clothed and armoured, and the people next to them don't know each other, who doesn't want to put others in front to resist damage and hide behind themselves to pick up cheap?

Yuan Shu governed the army, always only using might, not virtue, and the soldiers worked hard for him, nothing more than out of fear, out of fear and dare not resist the nobles of the fourth world and the third duke. Now there is no deterrence of direct officers who usually directly impeach the soldiers, and the soldiers are simply unwilling to use their lives.

And it was this brief confusion that gave the enemy on the opposite side a chance to break through.

……

"Enough! Gather the soldiers on both wings, and all of them will go straight to Liu Xun's big tent with me! There is a gap in the car formation in front, and I will rush away and take Liu Xun directly! ”

After setting fire in the outer camp at random, and killing about two teas to ensure that the enemy army was completely in chaos,

Guan Yu's sense of smell on the battlefield was very keen, and he noticed that there was a very tightly defended circle in the middle of the enemy camp, and they were almost surrounded by cars, so he knew that Liu Xun must be inside.

So he ordered the hundreds of horsemen who followed him to adjust their tactical objectives in time, and regather the combat power of the indiscriminate rush, intending to seize the opportunity to go straight to the heart.

The flames and trampling just now have caused enough chaos to prevent Liu Xun's left and right battalions from organizing the rescue of the Chinese army's big tent, since this is the case, it is enough to achieve this level, and there is no need to rush and kill again.

He only has 1,000 horsemen under his command, and Liu Xun has more than 13,000 people, which cannot be solved by slashing and sprinting, and it is even more dangerous to be entangled.

The encirclement and annihilation of the main force is the task of the main force of the 10,000 infantry of the eldest brother.

Guan Yu has always been kind and compassionate, and the soldiers are also quite loyal to Huaide, as soon as they rushed to the gap in the car formation, they used the hook to fly and entangle the rejection horse, and then dragged and pulled hard, and dragged the rejection horse to the ground with the pull of the war horse, leaving a way out.

However, in the dark, the elite soldiers who can use the hook to wrap around the ground remotely are a minority after all, and most of the hook cavalry are still not tied firmly after several shakes, so they can only dismount and rush forward to push, tie and break the obstacles.

Seeing this, the crossbowmen of Liu Xunbu on both sides hurriedly shot at the gap in the car formation, and the spearmen and shield men in the gap also shouted forward, stabbing and slashing indiscriminately in an attempt to scare off the barrier-breakers.

In an instant, three or four Guan Yujun cavalry who broke the barrier were stabbed to the ground, and more than ten people were wounded by crossbows and crossbows.

Guan Yu's eyes were red and his anger was blazing, but fortunately, after paying about twenty lives, the obstacles blocking the road were finally completely abandoned.

At this moment, Guan Yu finally rushed in like an arrow from the string, and the green dragon knife danced wildly, turning left and right like flying, slashing and killing the blocked Liu Xun soldiers one after another.

The guards behind Guan Yu are also imposing, since the main generals are so fierce and not afraid of death, how can the soldiers not have to die, let alone Guan Yu, who is good at sharing weal and woe with the soldiers.

Originally, spearmen had a certain advantage over cavalry in narrow terrain. However, in the state of Yuan Jun pushing each other and beggar-thy-neighbor, the formation was not neat, and the direction of the guns and spears could not be unified, and it was natural that Guan Yu broke through the gap.

"It's Guan Yu! Run! It's Guan Yu! ”

The hundreds of melee soldiers who were gathered by Liu Xun to block the mouth, after paying more than 100 casualties, finally collapsed completely, and the whole process did not even last a cup of tea.

The cavalry of Guan Yu's army on the opposite side rushed to kill hand-to-hand combat in this narrow terrain, in fact, the casualties were not small, and they also paid forty or fifty casualties in a short period of time, but the morale of Guan Yu's personal guards was able to withstand such casualties and live to the death.

"Hurry up and release the arrows! Shoot the arrows! Leave your own people alone, just shoot arrows at the crowd of cars in the gap! Liu Xun was anxious in the rear, and seeing that the last line of defense was about to collapse, he angrily asked the crossbowmen on the baggage carts on both wings to shoot indiscriminately.

"You can't do it! The number of soldiers killed in that gap is more than Guan Yu, so I am afraid that my own people will be killed and injured more if we release arrows! When a small school next to Liu Xun heard this, he begged hard to dissuade him.

Liu Xun knew that he couldn't be soft-hearted at this time, so he kicked the admonisher hard and shouted loudly: "Guan Yu's attack on the camp is all cavalry, how many people can there be?" It is because our army is in chaos that it has become the situation it is today!

Give me and Guan Yu a life! Even if two or three are exchanged for one, it is a good deal! Kill all the cavalry that was crowded and fighting over there, and Guan Yu had to retreat! ”

The archers of Liu Xun's department soon began to fire arrows indiscriminately towards the gap that was about to be lost, regardless of whether they were enemies or enemies. For a while, there was a terrible roar in the crowd, and countless Yuan soldiers themselves were completely stunned by the arrows shot from behind and on both sides.

Seeing this, Guan Yu also felt a slight chill in his heart, and quickly realized Liu Xun's intentions.

This is the end of the matter, only forward!

Guan Yu shouted: "Liu Xun even killed his own people, do you still give him his life!" Those who descend will not be killed! ”

The soldiers next to him also shouted nonsense, just to remind the enemy, "If you stop here and fight to the death, sooner or later you will be shot by your own people with arrows from behind." ”

After a very short fierce battle, as dozens of people on both sides were indiscriminately shot and put down, the soldiers of Yuan's army finally realized the situation, and their morale completely collapsed, and they scattered and fled.

Liu Xun saw in the crowd that the general situation was not good, and Guan Yu seemed to have broken through the blockade and killed his tent.

He threw away the eye-catching bronze helmet very undisciplinedly, replaced it with a turban of an ordinary soldier with no reflection, and pulled a rag cloak wrapped around the iron armor, disguised as a small character, and galloped backwards, trying to escape from the other entrances and exits of the Chinese army's chariot formation.

Guan Yu seemed to slash and kill dozens of people without pain, and finally killed outside the big tent of the Chinese army, and the remaining torches of the cavalry bar next to him were all thrown over, and then rushed in and slashed indiscriminately, but unfortunately he didn't see Liu Xun.

"Captain, Liu Xun has run away!" A personal school reminded Guan Yu.

Guan Yu gritted his teeth: "It's okay!" Burn the tent of the commander of the Chinese army, and let the soldiers shout in unison that Liu Xun is dead! Ordinary Yuan thieves can't tell the difference, and the military heart collapses! ”

The junior colonel couldn't help but be surprised: "Captain, don't you need to arrange someone to chase after you?" ”

Guan Yu waved his hand painfully: "I was hit by two arrows when I rushed to kill the car formation just now, but fortunately I had armor, and I didn't hurt the vital point, and I didn't make a sound." As long as Liu Xun runs away, the effect is the same as if he died, and the rest is left to rely on the main force of the eldest brother to clean up the mess. ”
