The dark shadows on the walls shook wildly, some were crying, some were scolding, and some were laughing sharply.

The dark eyes, snow-white face, and bright red lips completely changed into a different hideous appearance in the wind-howling night.

The soldiers on duty outside the temple seemed to hear something unusual and knocked on the temple door.

"Lady, is there anything unusual, do you need help from the villains?"

Those crazy beauties stopped attacking each other again, and a pair of eyes slowly turned around and stared at Liu Lanzhi's body.

She got up from the mat and looked left and right, feeling that the world was strange and cold.

In her plain and dreary years, she had pondered why she had been so unhappy.

She originally thought that she was from a humble background, so she didn't like her mother-in-law, so she would be abandoned and returned to her parents' house, so embarrassed.

But these Valve-reading families, girls from two thousand stones, how can they be so embarrassed, and even hateful?

They have discarded the dignity of high-ranking ladies and nobles, and they have discarded the foundation of human nature, and what they are fighting for is just the favor of their husbands.

This gorgeous palace, this rare pearl and jade gems, and these Shu brocade dresses shining in the candlelight, these are the things they fought for.

This is also the only survival skill they have to learn when they are trapped in this square inch.

But as soon as the general's sword was drawn, their heavens immediately changed.

It's not something that can stand in the world, indestructible.

The sun slowly rose from behind the mountain, and a golden light poured over the Huai Shui.

If there was anything in this world that was indestructible, Cao Ren would say that it should be his camp.

Regarding his point of view, Guan Yu and Zhang Liao did not agree with him at first.

In the early morning, some of the generals patrolling the camp found that no one had picked up the supplies on the river beach all night, and some of the routs had also hid by the river, so they were moved to let the soldiers cross the river by boat, and went over to check around.

After there were no ambushes nearby, the partial general immediately set up a boat bridge and prepared to receive the armor and weapons, gold and silver coins and silks on the river beach.

Cao Ren's orders are generally not disobeyed, but the partial general is also surnamed Cao, and he is also from Qian County, and he is also Cao Cao's own family, so he is extra indulgent on weekdays, and now he has finally broken into such a catastrophe.

In order to rescue Shouchun, the Yanzhou army and Yuan Shu attacked Guan Yu before and after, and originally prepared the ships and planks used to build the boat bridge.

Then Guan Yu and Zhang Liao's cavalry rushed out, stepped on the pontoon bridge, and rushed into Cao Ren's camp.

The sound of horses' hooves is very chaotic!

Some people are setting fires, some people are shouting loudly, and those people from Bingzhou and Xuzhou are like a strong wind, swept into the camp!

The ruddy-faced general rushed into the right-wing battalion and cut down a big banner!

The general on the black horse rushed into the left flank battalion and hacked two lieutenants to death!

They rushed back and forth like this, and their goal was very clear, cutting down the flag and officers first, so that the camp was immediately in chaos!

Cao Ren frowned and listened to the report of the military academy for a while, although he had never seen the general secretly build a pontoon bridge to pick up the spoils, he immediately realized what was happening when Zhang Liao and Guan Yu rushed to the camp.

"Long card soldiers!"

"The long-card soldier stepped forward!"

"Yes!"

"Crossbowman hurry up to the arrow tower!" He shouted, "Raise your waist and draw a crossbow!" ”

"Yes!"

"Put the car down! Cloth as a rejection horse! ”

"Yes!"

"Where is Wen Lie!"

"General! Cao Xiu is here! ”

When he saw Cao Xiu coming on horseback, he immediately gave an order, "You lead a thousand horsemen out of the camp and block the way for Guan Yu and Zhang Liao to charge back and forth!" ”

"Yes!"

Seeing Cao Xiu hurrying away, the main general issued orders in an orderly manner, and the soldiers seemed to have calmed down from their panic.

Guan Yu and Zhang Liao had cavalry, and they also had cavalry.

In addition to the cavalry, they also have long card soldiers to block the cavalry charge, strong crossbows to shoot the enemy, and the three army camps are arranged in a zigzag shape, so they can help each other, and they can calmly retreat from the enemy at this time.

They also have a fearsome tiger and leopard to ride! Although the main force of this cavalry was taken to the Huaiyin line by Cao Chun, the thousand cavalry led by Cao Xiu was still able to block the cavalry attack with the support of the camp.

Their lord was not yet thirty years old, and he heard that when he was young, he did not practice bowing and hunting, but at this time he was already a completely calm and magnanimous appearance.

He was very strict in governing the army, and he was very well loved by the soldiers.

Therefore, when they heard his order, their morale naturally rose - their general was here, and this camp would not be overcome!

If there is anything in the world that is indestructible, it must be this military camp standing on the bank of the Huai River!

Chapter 249

This is already the third war horse that Zhang Liao replaced, it is very beautiful, all hooves are white, like dark clouds stepping on snow, the gait is vigorous and light, but it is just over three years old, and it is not a prime war horse, so Zhang Liao rarely rides, always afraid that it will be injured.

But now he must rely on this "snow treading horse" to tide over this difficulty.

The sun is scorching, spreading light and heat on this boiling land.

There were scuffling soldiers everywhere, blood and stumps everywhere.

After inducing the soldiers in Cao's camp to secretly build a boat bridge and cross the river to steal the spoils, he and Guan Yu rushed out according to the established plan, ran all the way across the pontoon bridge, and rushed into the camp that had not yet had time to close.

Cao Renyi built a total of three large camps, the Chinese army in the front, the left and right wings in the back, the trench fence, the arrow tower antlers, are very carefully arranged, especially in these three camps there are more than a dozen small battalions, each small camp fence and built-in arrow towers, the outer cloth rejects horses, can not only defend each other, but also immediately close the back of the camp when the camp gate is attacked, so as not to break the army's heart.

Therefore, when the cavalry rushed into these small camps, Cao Ren's cumbersome arrangement immediately took effect, they only rushed to kill a few camps in front, and Cao Bing gradually settled down, and under the command of the golden drum and the command banner, methodically began to use the fortifications to defend against them, and slowly drove them out of the camp step by step.

The first row of long card soldiers, the second row of spearmen, countless crossbowmen on the turrets on both sides, and the small battalions one after another were full of rejecting horses, and the cavalry soon suffered casualties.

War horses are powerful, and when they charge, they are almost omnipotent, they can tear through the line like a raging wind, leaving only rout and death in their path;

But they are also vulnerable, they will be tripped by the rejection horses, they will be poked by spears, they will be shot by crossbow arrows, and when they have to slow down because of their injuries and bleeding, and finally slowly stop, then the soldiers who were originally trampled under their feet can wave the ring head knife in their hands and give these horses a knife!

Cao Ren's camp was arranged for this purpose!

Every cavalryman who died here, every war horse, is difficult to replenish!

Surrounded by the colors of light and blood, and his ears were filled with wails and the neighing of war horses, Zhang Liao glanced at the Chinese military camp again.

He has already rushed three battalions in a row, but in fact, it is not very far from Daxu.

Every vein in his body was boiling, and he wanted to rush and kill for a while, just rush to the next battalion, and rush to the next battalion! He can get close to Cao Ren's big tent!

Cao Ren naturally has many guards around him, but how can he compare to him?!

The black-colored 鶲 (he two sounds) pattern Daxu passed through the layers of arrow towers and fences, through the soldiers and the horses, and also through the blood and corpses, burning in Zhang Liao's eyes.

He realized the beauty of war, but also its dangers.

His hand on the horse's hand trembled slightly.

At the same time, the surging Huai Shui has long since lost its former tranquility.

The north bank of the river has been reduced to a battlefield, the Cao Ying soldiers on the north bank are desperately dismantling the pontoon bridge, the Xuzhou soldiers on the south bank are desperately building the boat bridge, and the Xuzhou soldiers who have come to the north bank through the boat bridge have a clear task:

They must defend this bridge and their retreat!

Although there were still cavalry in the camp charging and setting fires everywhere, Cao Ren had already arranged for a group of archers to leave the camp, with their backs to the camp, supported by rattan soldiers on both sides, and the front row was a carriage that was pushed and put down.

The team led an order, and a rain of arrows poured down towards the river!

The iron arrow that shimmered with cold light pierced through the rattan armor, through the clothes, through the skin, and stabbed into the soldier's body—

They have made a big mistake by allowing the people of Xuzhou to cross the river, how can they be allowed to go back?!

The banks of the river were instantly stained red with blood.

Lu Hangyu simply counted the spoils captured in the first battle of Shouchun, of which food was the most important, followed by war horses, weapons and armor, and then those money and silk that could be removed immediately, as for the splendid Shouchun Palace, it could only be placed there first.

…… She also left some money for Liu Lanzhi very intimately, so that she could settle those poor little beauties before returning to the camp on the south bank of Huaishui.

Her soldiers were less than 8,000 people, of which 800 cavalry were taken away by Zhang Liao, and 2,000 Donglai soldiers were busy in Shouchun City with their people, and there were 5,000 people in the camp, and they had to help take care of Guan Yu's camp, which suddenly seemed a little deserted.

But Xu Shu and Tai Shici didn't look cold at all, and as soon as they heard the sound of her horses' hooves, they immediately ran out of the tent!

"The general is back!"

She looked at Tai Shici's face, and then at Xu Shu's face, and suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Second General and Wen Yuan," she asked, "haven't you come back yet?" ”

But as if as evidence, another anxious Guan Ping ran out of the tent.

The battlefield was less than ten miles away, but the shouts of killing had not yet reached her tent.

The soldiers brought water, and she put the cup down after a few sips, and the sound of the pottery cup falling on the table was particularly loud.

The battle was bad, but it was still quiet in the tent.

When she was on an envoy to Juancheng with Chen Deng, she had seen Cao Ren once, so now she can carefully recall what Cao Ren looked like in her impression.

It was very strange that Cao Ren's performance at the banquet was completely an arrogant and unkempt image of a military general, which was very different from the combat mission he held on the north bank of Huaishui at this time, and with his style of dealing with people, she really couldn't imagine that he could calmly and strategically defend the camp.

Especially now, occupying the river step by step, but it has not sent elite soldiers out of the camp for a long time, destroying the boat bridge, as if leaving a way for the people of Xuzhou to retreat.

…… What was he waiting for?

"This is a man of the thick." She recalled, and said slowly.

"A fierce rival." Xu Shu commented.

"I didn't stab him to death with a sword at the banquet at the beginning, it was mine."

…… There was no way to answer this, but Tai Shi Ci immediately asked again.

"Wen Yuan and the second general are trapped in the enemy camp, and they don't know life and death!" He said, "Why don't you send me to the rescue!" ”

"General Lu!" Guan Ping couldn't help it, "I led the troops to charge several times, but I was forced to retreat before I could cross the river!" What should I do? ”

She looked at the sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man.
