The big man is on the run

Chapter 173
Hearing what the guard said, Chunyu Qiong immediately came to his senses. He sat up, rubbed his eyes, and said, "The enemy has sneaked into my outpost Hezhou? Doesn't that mean that it has fallen?"

"General, yes! The enemy has taken control of the outpost River State!"

"General, what shall we do now?"

Chunyu Qiong thought for a while and asked.

"Since the Sentinel River State has fallen, we must now control the pontoon bridge. The enemy's target will not be our camp, it must be the pontoon bridge! Yes, they must burn the pontoon bridge to block the connection between the north and the south!"

After Chunyuqiong finished speaking, he quickly put on his clothes and asked his personal guards to put on armor for him.

"Send people to take back Hezhou? No, no, the outpost Hezhou has already fallen, and sending people there won't help."

Chunyuqiong's head was still a little dizzy, he was talking to himself.

"The general should hurry up and put on his clothes and armor, and go out to appease people after he is finished."

"All right."

Chunyuqiong also knew that it was useless for him to send people back, but he still hoped that he could save the outpost Hezhou.

After all, that position is very critical for defending the navy.

Soon, Chunyu Qiong put on the armor with the help of his personal guards, and then headed towards the handsome tent. However, just after taking a few steps, Chunyu Qiong felt the world was spinning and his eyes were a little dizzy. A flagpole next to it.

However, with a "bang", it seemed that something had smashed down.

However, the flagpole broke suddenly at this moment, and Chunyu Qiong, who was not wearing a mask, was covered in blood and blood, and even fell to the ground.

"General, are you all right?"

The rest of the guards hurried over, and after seeing Chunyu Qiong's situation, they were all frightened and quickly supported him.

Chunyuqiong felt that his body was heavy, as if it had been filled with lead, but he still stood up, shook his head, and said, "It's okay, you guys continue to protect me and go to the tent, hurry up."

"Follow!"

Those personal guards couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard Chunyu Qiong's words. They knew that their general was very drunk and injured, and it was absolutely impossible for him to walk over by himself, so they had to continue to support him towards the camp. go inside.

"Strange, what fell?"

Chunyuqiong became more and more confused, his brain was now full of mud.

However, in the next instant, countless stones the size of washbasins fell from the sky.

"Boom!"

The stone fell fiercely on top of the head of the guard next to Chunyu Qiong, and directly retracted his smashed head into the chest cavity.

Seeing this, the rest of the guards were also stunned. For a while, they didn't know what to do, so they just stood there in a daze, not daring to move.

"A meteorite?"

The person reacted for a while before speaking.

"No, it's a cannon carriage!"

Chunyuqiong was a little annoyed, he wiped his bloody face.

"The enemy's artillery carts have been pushed two or three miles to the gate of the camp, don't you know?"

The guards were also aggrieved: "There are no enemies outside the camp gate!"

"Where did that stone come from?" Chunyu Qiong became more and more puzzled.

No one could answer his question.

In fact, the boats converted into gunboats did not get entangled with the officers and troops who landed on Hezhou, but went straight down the river and came directly to the granary on the north bank. Aim for the granary and surrounding camps and fire!
These camps were built close to the Yellow River for the convenience of transporting grain and grass. At this time, most of them were within the strike range of the gunboats.

"Pass down the order, the whole army is on alert, focusing on preventing the enemy from destroying the Yellow River pontoon bridge!"

Chunyu Qiong sat down on the carpet of the handsome tent, and said grinningly.

The military doctor was cleaning the wood thorns on his face. Fortunately, Chunyu Qiong drank a lot of wine, so the pain was relatively slow at this time, otherwise he might die of pain.

"In addition, pass on my general's order. All the leading generals and academies will lead their troops to stand by at any time. We must not let the enemy break into the granary. Otherwise, all the food and grass of our army will be buried here!"

After listening to Chunyu Qiong's order, those personal guards ran outside in a hurry.

Soon, they came to Yuan Shaojun's generals and told them Chunyuqiong's words.

After receiving Chunyu Qiong's order, the officers at all levels in the barracks around the granary did not dare to be negligent, and led their troops to gather together to prepare for the enemy's attack.

As Chunyuqiong's orders were passed on by officers at all levels, the entire camp immediately fell into a busy state. Soon, in the camp on the north shore, countless soldiers emerged from their tents, and some were in charge of reinforcements. The Yellow River pontoon began to rush outside.

And more people are guarding in the camp.

"boom!"

A stone bomb hit the fence pole of the camp, making a muffled sound.

"Boom"

Another stone bomb fell down, making a loud noise, and exploded on the wall of the camp. The resulting fragments immediately blasted the soldiers on the wall.

Inside, a sentry tower shattered, and the two soldiers above were immediately suppressed by the collapsed sentry tower, unable to escape at all.

Soon, screams sounded in the camp, and the soldiers couldn't resist the stone bombs falling.

Soon, Yuan Shaojun's soldiers were injured a lot.

However, at this moment, a dense burst of horns sounded suddenly, and with the sound of the horns, one by one Han army infantry who got off the troop carrier began to charge from the west.

In Yuan Shaojun's camp, seeing these soldiers rushing from the troop carrier, Yuan Shaojun's soldiers couldn't help being stunned on the spot. They never thought that the Han army would dare to rush over from such a terrain.

"Go and tell the general, their goal is not the floating bridge, but the granary!"

However, it was too late at this time.

By the time the gunboat of the landing force arrived, the quick-burning fuel tank had already been replaced.

"Oh!"

After a muffled sound, a kerosene tank hit the granary directly, and thick smoke billowed immediately.

Immediately afterwards, fires started everywhere, and clusters of fires spread throughout the camp.

For a time, the fire blazed up.

"Fire! Put out the fire!"

"General, fire"

Seeing the fire, Yuan Shaojun's soldiers were all dumbfounded. They panicked and shouted, hoping that someone could bring them to put out the fire.

Chunyu Qiong was also surprised when he saw the fire.

"Go find someone to put out the fire!"

Chunyu Qiong quickly ordered the soldiers under his command.

Soon, a large number of soldiers poured out from all over and ran towards the granary, trying to put out the fire with water.

However, soon, everyone's expressions changed, because the fire was getting stronger and stronger, and it was impossible for them to put it out.

"Why, the fire can burn so fast?!"

It was too late to think at this time, and soon, the fire spread to the soldiers pointing to put out the fire, and soon the soldiers turned into a glowing red.

"Puff, puff!"

"what"

The flames engulfed the soldier's body, his arms quickly turned into a pile of coke, his legs began to soften, and he knelt on the ground, twitching all over his body, and let out a mournful howl. Obviously, he was I can't survive.

Before the charred corpse could be carried away, a large number of Han troops who disembarked from the troop carrier also crossed the trench, climbed over the camp wall and rushed into the camp, and began to attack the camp outside the granary.

Soon, there was a mess of porridge in the entire camp!

"Kill!"

"Brothers, kill all these bandits!"

There were roars of anger, and the soldiers of the Han army rushed up with swords and guns, and rushed towards Yuan Shaojun.

"kill!"

Seeing that Yuan Shaojun still dared to resist, these Han army elites couldn't help roaring when they saw this, and slashed at those Yuan Shaojun soldiers with the ring head knife in their hands.

"Puff, puff."

Blood splattered out one after another, Yuan Shaojun soldiers fell down one by one, and the heads of soldiers flew into the air one by one.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

A number of soldiers roared angrily, waved the steel knife in their hands, and slashed at each other.

The two sides soon fought together.

"Pfft."

A sharp spear stabbed towards the neck of Yuan Shaojun's soldier.

The Yuan Shaojun soldier quickly raised the knife in his hand and blocked it in front of his neck.

"boom!"

Another spear slammed into his arm.

"what"

The Yuan Shaojun soldier couldn't help wailing loudly, and a big blood hole was pierced out of his entire right arm, blood gushed out wildly, staining the war robe under the Yuan Shaojun soldier red.

"Kill, kill, kill"

There was a shrill cry of killing, and on the way of the Han army's attack, corpses fell to the ground one after another.

The Han army began to frantically behead the enemy in front of them. Many Yuan Shaojun soldiers never thought that they would encounter such a tragic experience when they were just resting. If he didn't react, he was killed.

One after another corpses were lying on the ground in disorder, and both sides slashed numbly with the weapons in their hands.

Looking at the enemies around them, the faces of Yuan Shaojun's generals suddenly turned pale.

Their faces were extremely ugly, and they never dreamed that there would be such an enemy army in their camp.

Obviously, this enemy army is definitely not something that ordinary soldiers can form. Not only should they have undergone rigorous training, but at this time, they have already seen clearly under the firelight soaring into the sky. An enemy army, the armor worn by the soldiers is very strong, obviously, their equipment is not owned by the general army.

"General, the enemy has rushed in, the fire is too great!"

Chunyuqiong stared blankly at the granary that had been reduced to ashes, and couldn't believe how Yuan Shao would face this fact.

At this moment, Chunyu Qiong's face was so ugly that he had to retreat towards the other gate of the camp while dispatching soldiers to fight the fire.

"Quick, general, you should withdraw to the camp gate near the pontoon bridge first, we will deal with these enemies!"

A school lieutenant shouted at Chunyu Qiong, his face full of seriousness and worry.

In Chunyuqiong's current state, it is obvious that he is unable to command, and staying here is also a hindrance.

Chunyu Qiong nodded, he knew that it was meaningless for him to stay now, he might as well send reinforcements to the pontoon bridge to reinforce the camp.

"Kill!"

Soon, a general of the Han army yelled, and led another elite Han army into the camp, waving the weapons in his hand, wantonly killing Yuan Shaojun's soldiers.

Seeing the Han troops rushing in, several school lieutenants looked at each other, and then led their troops to rush towards the Han troops.

Soon, the Han army fought with Yuan Shaojun.

"General, you go, I will cover you!"

Seeing this scene, the captain who said to let Chunyuqiong leave first looked at the soldiers around him and shouted loudly.

"kill!"

“Save the remaining granaries!”

Yuan Shaojun's generals shouted one after another.

Encouraged, one by one Yuan Shaojun soldiers drew their sabers and charged towards the Han army.

"General, you leave quickly!"

A general of Yuan Shaojun yelled at Chunyuqiong: "If it's too late, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave!"

A trace of hesitation flashed across Chunyu Qiong's face when he heard the words, but he finally nodded, turned around and ran towards the camp gate.

At this time, a feathered arrow flew from Chunyuqiong's back, trying to shoot him to death.

Fortunately, there were personal guards blocking the arrows, and Chunyu Qiong, who had reacted, tried to dodge belatedly, only to realize that there was already a force coming from behind.

The leading general was nearly nine feet tall, running towards him majestically.

"kill!"

Seeing that his general was almost killed, Chunyuqiong's personal guards roared angrily, and waved their steel knives towards the Han army.

The two troops fought fiercely in the camp in an instant, and soldiers continued to fall under the enemy's swords and guns.

"Die!"

Tai Shici yelled loudly, waved the spear in his hand, and directly picked up a personal guard of Chunyuqiong in front of him and flew out.

Chunyu Qiong wanted to run away, but he couldn't move no matter what.

"Thief general, take your life!"

Tai Shici roared angrily, waved the long lance in his hand, and stabbed Chunyuqiong's head. For this blow, Tai Shici used all his strength.

"Pfft!"

Blood spurted out, Chunyu Qiong's eyes widened, his face was extremely pale, and his whole face was full of fear.

Chunyu Qiong died with regret.

Tai Shici, on the other hand, laughed out loud, ignoring to cut off the enemy's head, brandishing his spear, he continued to charge towards the enemy.

At this time, Chunyu Qiong died, and the remaining soldiers in the camp were scared out of their wits.

They threw away the weapons in their hands one after another, ran away with their heads in their arms, and kept running away, for fear that their heads would be chopped off by Tai Shici.

Under Tai Shici's hands, the soldiers of the Han army rushed forward in a swarm, followed by a tragic massacre.

Yuan Shao, who was woken up, looked at the raging fire on the north bank, couldn't breathe, and spit out a mouthful of black blood before he recovered.

Regardless of wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Yuan Shao quickly ordered: "Go to the north bank to reinforce, and kill these thieves who dare to attack!"

After hearing Yuan Shao's order, Yan Liangwenchou rushed towards the north bank with thousands of soldiers.

Fortunately in misfortune, the Yellow River floating bridge was not burned.
