Chapter 138: Why did the prime minister laugh
Cao Cao was laughing, and suddenly, everyone heard a strange sound from Luliang Mountain.
Everyone is an expert in marching and fighting, and when they hear this voice, they are shocked.
Yi Lang participated in the military Du attack and said: "It's not good, there may be soldiers and horses in the mountains to ambush!" ”
Cheng Yu was surprised: "Could it be that the Southern Xiongnu retreated as an advance and set up an ambush in this mountain?" ”
Yuan Jian probed the wind with his hand and said in a deep voice: "There should be a lot of people!" ”
Xu Chu had already taken his weapon, beat the horse to protect Cao Cao, and turned his head and said, "Lord, have you withdrawn to Lishi City?" ”
They hadn't been out of Shicheng for a long time, and there were fast horses in their group, and if they went north to leave Shicheng, it was obviously too late.
However, Cao Cao looked north away from Shicheng and frowned: "Go south!" ”
"Lord!"
Xu You and Jia Xu persuaded each other at the same time, but Cao Cao had already set the direction, pointed to the south with a horsewhip and said, "To the south!" Fortunately, Lone was not in the car, and on the horse, everyone abandoned the car and headed south! ”
Those who can go north with Cao Cao are all smart people, except for Xu Chu, who already understand what Cao Cao means.
Yesterday from Shichengtou, Cao Cao and Liang Xi, the assassin of Bingzhou, talked and laughed, but when he was attacked today, he didn't believe Liang Xi at all, and would rather go further.
Jia Xu sighed in his heart, he would rather teach me to bear the world than teach the world to bear me, Cao Cao loves talent, but he is really suspicious.
Everyone was silent, but Xu Chu didn't care about that, nodded and shouted: "Where is the Tiger Guard Camp!" ”
All the soldiers said in unison: "Here! ”
Xu Chu said: "Several military advisors and generals escorted the lord to the south, the sons and daughters of the Tiger Guard Battalion, let's go to meet the enemy!" ”
After that, he pointed to the cavalry carrying the banner of "Captain Huwei Xu", and the cavalry came out of the ranks, and the Tiger Guard Battalion naturally lined up in a sharp formation.
This is the elite of the elite, the number is far inferior to the tiger and leopard cavalry, but the individual combat ability is stronger than the tiger and leopard cavalry.
Cao Cao turned around and said, "Return to Yecheng and reward each with platinum!" ”
After that, he didn't linger, and left with everyone outside the Tiger Guard camp.
Xu Chu laughed and said: "Did you hear it, reward 100 gold miles!" ”
The soldiers solemnly agreed, staring at the enemy who came out of the mountain.
Hearing the wind getting faster and faster, a large group of cavalry rushed out of the mountain.
There were thousands of cavalrymen, but there was not a single banner on them, and it could be seen from the clothes that they were not from the Central Plains.
The crowd did not have much contact with the Hu, only looked at the clothes, and did not find that these were actually Qiang people and not Xiongnu.
Xu Chu said with a smile: "It's really a barbarian ambush, so let me see the quality!" ”
Dozens of horsemen roared and rushed towards the three thousand Qiang horses, and Sima Fang, who was hiding in the middle of the Qiang horses, was taken aback, he fled all the way north, and there were pursuers behind him, never thought that someone would ambush him as soon as he came out of Luliang Mountain.
What kind of warrior is it, daring dozens of people to rush three thousand?
When he fixed his eyes and saw the banner of Xu Zi, he immediately poured down like a basin of ice water, and shouted: "Don't engage in battle, go north, go north!" ”
He was framed by Ma Chao and exposed the dead man who was raised in the shadows, but he had other plans, how could he face Xu Chu here.
Everyone knows that Xu Chu and Cao Cao are inseparable, Xu Chu is here, isn't Cao Cao's army close to the left, if he is entangled, how can he survive.
The Qiang cavalry of the rear team went north, but the front team did not have time to turn and quickly came into contact with the Tiger Guard Battalion.
Everyone in the Tiger Guard Camp is like a tiger, and after a round of contact, one person did not die, and the Qiang cavalry was killed.
Sima Fang fled north in embarrassment, looking at the team behind him, his heart was dripping blood, he didn't understand why he was so unlucky, in just a few days, he suffered repeated setbacks.
The three thousand Qiang horses that he worked hard to raise were originally his hole cards for separating a place in the future, but at this time there was a loss.
"Go north, go north!"
In the laughter of Xu Chu's killing of the enemy, Qiang rode north and fled.
On the other side, Cao Cao fled more than ten miles south with his military advisers, and he couldn't see the smoke and dust behind him, so he stopped.
Xu You said: "The lord is the prime minister, and he is a daughter, so he still can't take risks like this in the future." ”
Cao Cao nodded, this time in order to scare off the Southern Xiongnu, there were indeed too few people coming, but no one could have imagined that the Southern Xiongnu would learn to be smart and ambush people.
Everyone didn't dare to get off the horse and rested on the edge of a forest, Cao Cao knew that Xu Chu was brave and waited for him.
He ate a piece of cake, looked around, and suddenly saw a clearing on the edge of the forest, connected to Luliang Mountain, and couldn't help laughing.
Cheng Yu and Jia Xu stiffly turned their heads, and Du Xun asked, "Why is the prime minister laughing?" ”
Cao Cao said: "I laugh at the Southern Huns who don't know how to use soldiers, how can there be only one ambush?" If I set up an ambush here with my troops, I will surely be able to kill the defeated enemy cleanly! ”
Du Xun looked forward and found that this was indeed the case, and this place was extremely suitable for ambushes, especially for small forces like them.
In the sixth year of Jian'an, Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao tried in vain to go north, and Xi'e bore the brunt, Liu Biao sent a total of 10,000 foot cavalry to surround the county seat of Xi'e, and the Xi'e County ordered Du to attack and organize the militia to organize 50 people, blocking the army for several days, killing hundreds of enemies.
Du Xi became famous in the north because of this, and was recommended by Zhong Xuan and Xun Yu. But because of this war, most of his fifty cronies died in the battle, and to this day, only seven or eight people are still around, and this time they happened to be with them.
One of them hesitated, and said in Du Xi's ear: "Lang Jun, I seem to hear the sound of horses?" ”
"What?"
Du Xun was startled, and then he also heard it, it was indeed the voice of a horse, and it was not chased from the north, but from the middle of Luliang Mountain, where Cao Cao pointed out just now.
He suddenly shouted: "Prime Minister, enemy attack, enemy attack!" ”
The people who were resting put down the food in their hands one after another, looked to the east, and saw hundreds of cavalry, all of them wearing white light and white armor, coming out of the mountain.
Like the previous wave, these people did not have flags, but they wore armor and could not see whether the costumes were Han or Hu.
In this kind of place, only the enemy army does not dare to raise the banner, it seems that these are the ambushes of the Southern Xiongnu, but these are obviously more elite.
"Let's go, go south, go south!"
Cao Cao shouted again, halfway through the shouting, and thought that if no one broke off, they might not be able to escape.
"Prime Minister Hurry up, go first!"
The military advisor sacrificed wine Yuan Jian shouted loudly, and the horse came to Du Xian's body and said, "Zixu, let's two snipe enemies!" ”
Du Xi pulled out his sword and said, "Yes, the prime minister should go quickly!" ”
Cao Cao named and said: "Gongda, Zhongde, Wenhe, follow me quickly!" ”
Before he could shout, Jia Xu was already fleeing for his life, Xun You and Cheng Yu were protecting Cao Cao, and a few of Cao Cao's personal guards, a total of ten people, hurriedly fled south.
Cao Cao looked back and said, "Zixu, Yaoqing, see you in Yecheng!" ”
Yuan Jian and Du Xian couldn't care about replying to Cao Cao, Yuan Jian was known as a brave champion and a good man, with his own civil and military spirit, holding a gun in one hand and a sword in the other, to meet the enemy's main general.
The enemy general was dressed in splendid armor and held a tiger-headed golden gun in his hand, but with a slight flick, the gun in Yuan Lian's hand was peeled off.
Du Xun came to the aid with a sword, and these 500,000 warriors were also picked off by the enemy with a single shot.
Breaking one person with one move, this enemy general's spear can be called domineering.
The two looked at each other in despair, already planning to die, when suddenly an angry roar came from the north: "Grandpa Xu Chu is here, who are you!" ”
The enemy general wanted to kill the second general, but when he heard this, he turned around and wondered: "You are Xu Chu, you are not Jing Zhaoyin's people?" ”
"What Kyung Zhao Yin?"
Xu Chu had just been killed for a while, and there was blood all over his body, and he saw Yuan Jian and Du Attack frustrated from a distance, and he couldn't bear it anymore, slapped his horse and danced his knife, and slashed at the enemy general.
The enemy general said angrily: "Why don't you listen to people, you are the tiger waiting for Xu Chu, do you know who I am?" ”
"I don't care who you are!"
Xu Chu only used a war knife to slash at the head of the enemy general.
……
Cao Cao fled for more than ten miles, the people were sleepy and the horses were tired, and there was no smoke and dust in the north, so he temporarily rested by a small river.
Cao Cao didn't see Xu Chu and the others come back for a long time, sighed in his heart, and Xu You persuaded: "Don't worry, the tiger idiot is strong, Yuan sacrifices wine and Yongguan Benyu, he should be able to come back." ”
Cao Cao was silent for a long time, feeling that he was really too big to go north this time, and the Southern Xiongnu seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and it should not be like this again in the future.
After reviewing it for a while, he observed the surrounding terrain again, and when he saw the meandering water, he thought in his heart, and a half-smile appeared on his lips.
He immediately frowned, thought of the situation just now, and looked at it carefully, and saw that there were indeed no enemy troops, so he continued to laugh.
Xu You slapped his head, and Cheng Yu and Jia Xu looked at him in surprise.
After a while, Jia Xu stubbornly said: "Why is the prime minister laughing? ”
"I laugh at the ...... of the Southern Huns"
Before the words fell, I saw smoke and dust rising from the south, and it seemed that a large army was coming.
