Chapter 564
The city wall was blown down, and in the face of this group of panicked Cao troops, Zhao Yun took the lead, and the horse was the first to kill the ruins, and the spear quickly stabbed out, piercing an enemy soldier who tried to flee through the chest.
Behind him, tens of thousands of horsemen poured in one after another, surging in from the gap of more than ten zhang, and poured into the county town like a tide.
Iron hooves crushed, blades slashed, mercilessly slashing at those fleeing foes.
From the collapsed city wall, the bloody road stretched all the way to the interior of the city of Yuxian County, and the earth-shaking shouts of killing tore through the darkness of the night and dragged the creatures of this city into the abyss of fear.
Most of the soldiers slaughtered into the city, and Haobai rode his horse and held his halberd, and then came, shouting: "Disarm and don't kill!"
I saw that under the firelight everywhere, the main street in the city was full of Cao soldiers who raised their hands and surrendered, and his soldiers were like wolves driving sheep, chasing and killing those enemies who refused to surrender and fled for their lives.
Xu Huang, who led the crowd to kill with an axe, met Zhao Yun, and the two fought three or four moves in succession, Xu Huang knew that he was invincible, and saw that the troops next to him were killed in pieces, so he hurriedly beat his horse and returned, and led the crowd to flee to the south gate.
Just fled to the city, but saw that the direction of the south gate was also full of fire, Yan Liang led a cavalry that had already rushed violently, invincible all the way, and went straight to Xu Huang and others.
Attacked by the enemy on the back and flanked left and right, Xu Huang was already cornered, but he still refused to be reconciled, and roared: "Go, retreat to the mansion with me." ”
After saying that, the big axe danced vigorously, killing the soldiers who were intercepted in front of him all the way, and led the remnants of hundreds of soldiers and horses to retreat to the county government of Yuxian County......
The county government of Yuxian County, a radius of only more than 30 steps, is being surrounded by the Hao army at the moment.
In the firelight, Haobai was surrounded by Zhao Yun and other generals, and slowly rode his horse, and then the defenders at the gate of the county government made way for a way, and Haobai and the generals stopped at the gate of the government office.
The gate of the county government was tightly closed, and there was silence inside the gate, but you can imagine how many knives, guns, and strong bows and crossbows guarded behind the door.
At this time, Pang Tong on the side said: "Xu Gongming is a general, and he is willing to rely on the three-inch house to say that he will vote!"
Haobai thought about it, nodded, and immediately asked people to take paper and ink, hurriedly wrote two lines of words on the horseback, and handed it to Pang Tong.
Pang Tong strode to the gate of the county government and shouted loudly: "General Xu, I am Pang Tong, please open the door!"
After waiting for a while, suddenly two paulownia doors opened, revealing two rows of soldiers with knives and guns in their hands and bright armor, standing solemnly and murderously.
Pang Tong smiled and entered with a bang, and then the door squeaked and closed tightly.
Half an hour later, the generals outside the gate gradually became impatient, and Zhao Yun and the others were even more eager to break in.
Just when everyone was anxious, they only heard a squeak, and the door slowly opened!
I saw Pang Tong walking out with a spring breeze on his face, and then a fierce general in his twenties strode out of the gate of the county government, and bowed down to Haobai and bowed deeply: "The last general Xu Huang, meet the general!"
The so-called master should be the master of the use of people, doubtful people do not use, but for thousands of years almost no one can really do it.
For example, Cao Cao, although he recruited talents, but the only generals he really believed in were the generals of the Cao family and the Xiahou family, and although other generals with foreign surnames were reused, after all, the key positions and power were always in the hands of the Cao family and the Xiahou generals.
But Haobai is really able to use people without suspicion, he is not a person in this world, and there is no family here, so there is no family power at all, and his complete trust in the generals under his command has reached a point-in-point.
For example, before Xu Huang surrendered, he asked Pang Tong, who went to surrender, to bring his handwritten letter, promising that after Xu Huang came to surrender, the surrendered Cao army would still be led by him.
Back then, Bai Qikeng killed 400,000 Zhao Guo soldiers, and Xiang Yu killed 200,000 Qin soldiers, all because the new soldiers could not control it.
But this is not a problem for Haobai, he can't do such a thing as killing surrendered soldiers.
Xu Huang was so trusting and flattered by Haobai.
As for those soldiers, some were forcibly arrested to join the army, and some were just to eat for a while, they were originally Han people, in their eyes, whether it was Haobai or Cao Cao, they were all Hanchen, there was no difference in themselves, and there was basically no psychological barrier.
Besides, the treatment under Haobai is far better than when he was messing with Cao Cao, who still thinks about rebelling against Cao......
After resting in Yuxian for two days, Haobai continued to attack Yanling.
Yanling is the last obstacle to the march into Xudu, and if you capture Yanling, you can come to Xudu.
Moreover, Cao Cao almost concentrated all his troops in the Yanling area, reaching 150,000 troops in the land of Yanling, which was Cao Cao's last combat strength, and after that, only some soldiers and horses in the city of Xu Du remained.
A few days later, Hao Bai led his army and came to Yanling City.
Haobai slowly raised his head, looked at the head of Yanling City, his eyes swept over the heavily guarded and slightly panicked Cao Jun, and then fixed on Le Jin, who was holding a big knife and standing proudly at the head of the city.
Le Jin is a general who is very good at leading the army, if you talk about force, you may be worse than other generals, but if you talk about the ability to arrange troops, Le Jin is extremely strong, and there are not many people in the entire Three Kingdoms who can surpass him.
Then he looked away again, and then fell on a young general beside Le Jin.
I saw that this person's face was like a crown of jade, holding a silver spear, full of heroism, but it obviously made people feel a sense of arrogance, although he and Le Jin stood side by side at the head of the city, whether it was the soldiers at the head of the city or the enemy soldiers under the city, without exception, the focus of their eyes was on Le Jin.
But this person was deliberately publicized, not only was he very close to Lejin, but he also leaned forward slightly, as if he wanted everyone to know that he was the protagonist of Yanling City, and this person was Cao Xiu.
The corners of Haobai's mouth showed a hint of danger, and he turned back to Xu Huang behind him and said, "Gongming, it's time for you to appear." ”
Xu Huang responded to the call, led dozens of cavalry guards to ride out on horseback, and went straight to the city.
Le Jin and Cao Xiu at the head of the city suddenly saw dozens of horsemen rushing out of the enemy's formation flags, and looked up one after another, but saw a big banner in the dozens of horses hunting and hunting in the wind, embroidered with a big "Xu" word, looked carefully, and recognized it was Xu Huang.
Xu Huang and the others ran until dozens of steps away from the city before stopping, Xu Huang pulled the reins of the horse, raised his head, looked at the city and shouted: "Wen Qian, don't come unharmed!"
Cao Xiu, who was at the head of the city, was angry when he saw Xu Huang, and roared angrily: "Xu Huang, my uncle treats you well, you defect to the enemy, what kind of face do you have!"
Xu Huang pointed at Cao Xiu and scolded coldly: "Cao Xiu, but relying on the prestige of the clan, he is immoral and incompetent, since Wen Qian is here, when will it be your turn to speak?"
