Han Shimou

At this time, Le Jin, who was holding food in the rear, suddenly saw the soldiers and horses in the front chasing the first army away quickly.Le Jin was anxious, and quickly ordered the soldiers to stabilize their positions and be careful of sneak attacks.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Le Jin's words fell, countless shouts of killing violently erupted, and a group of soldiers and horses rushed out.The leading general is Zhang Xiu, the spear king of the Northland.Zhang Xiu has a cold face and flies straight to Le Jin.Le Jin was startled, and quickly raised his knife to meet Zhang Xiu.Zhang Xiu's gun style was like a rainstorm, and he attacked Le Jin fiercely. Le Jin hurriedly met the enemy, but couldn't resist for a while, and was killed by Zhang Xiu.Zhang Xiu quickly ordered the soldiers to set fire to the grain, and immediately the grain carts were ablaze, and the flames were connected one by one.When the wind was strong, the fire spread extremely fast.When Cao Jun saw that the grain cart was burned, he desperately came to rescue it.Zhang Xiu's team resisted fiercely, Le Jin stopped his panic, seeing the grain truck being burned, his eyes turned red with anger, and he raised his knife to kill Zhang Xiu.Zhang Xiu picks up his spear to block it, and fights with Le Jin.

Although Zhang Xiu tried his best to resist Cao Jun, but Cao Jun was anxious for food and supplies, and came to kill bravely, seeing that Zhang Xiu was gradually unable to resist.

At this time, Xia Houen led the army to kill, and the morale of Cao's army rose sharply.It's just that not long after Xiahouen's soldiers arrived, a huge wind and dust hit the right side, and another soldier and horse rushed towards him.The leading general, wearing black armor and holding a broadsword, was none other than Pei Yuanshao.Pei Yuanshao shouted angrily, galloped his flying horse, and led the army to attack Xiahouen's soldiers and horses.Xia Houen's deployment was chaotic, and he was completely defeated by the troops led by Pei Yuanshao.Pei Yuanshao came straight to fetch Xiahouen, Xiahouen held a sword in his hand, and fought hard!

Xia Houen was originally Cao Cao's general with the sword on his back, but he was appreciated by Xia Houyuan and became Xia Houyuan's subordinate.In order to encourage his ambition, Cao Cao rewarded Xia Houen with his sword.This sword is named Ri Qinghong, and it is a peerless sword that cuts iron like mud.

It is said that Xia Houen swung his sword, and the sharp edge of the sword immediately cut the big knife in Pei Yuanshao's hand into two pieces.Pei Yuanshao was taken aback, at this time Xiahouen swung his sword and slashed at him again, Pei Yuanshao hurriedly avoided, the Qinghong sword slashed on Pei Yuanshao's armor, splitting a fierce flame.After the flames passed, Pei Yuanshao's armor split into two.

Pei Yuanshao focused his gaze, knowing that Xiahouen's sword was amazing, and under the precarious situation, Pei Yuanshao forced out his body's potential and let out a loud roar.It happened that Xiahouen swung his sword again, Pei Yuanshao dropped the saber in his hand, grabbed Xiahouen's sword, stretched out his hand quickly, and wanted to grab Xiahouen's sword.How could Xia Houen like it, this sword was given by Cao Cao, and he regarded it as his life.Xiahouen was in a hurry to fight with Pei Yuanshao for the sword, the two fought for a long time, but they were still deadlocked.

After a while, Xia Houen's eyes suddenly became venomous, and he even picked up the hilt of the sword with both hands and raised it vigorously. Pei Yuanshao quickly let go, and ten fingers were almost cut off by the sharp sword light.Xia Houen regained the Qinghong Sword, and immediately cut off Pei Yuanshao's throat.

Pei Yuanshao couldn't dodge it. Seeing that the iron-cutting sword was about to strike, he shouted unwillingly in his heart, my life is over! ! !

Just at the very moment, Xia Houen suddenly pierced a long spear from his heart.Xia Houen's eyes were wide open, and before he died, he tried his best to look back, and what he saw was Zhang Xiu with a cold face.

It turned out that under the attack of Pei Yuanshao's deployment, Cao's army was in chaos. Zhang Xiu took advantage of the situation and killed him. After defeating Le Jin, he saw Pei Yuanshao and Xia Houen fighting.Zhang Xiu saw that Xia Houen's sword was powerful, fearing that Pei Yuanshao might make a mistake, he hurried to help.Xiahouen died soon after, falling off his horse.Seeing this, the surrounding soldiers of the Cao army came to besiege and kill in fury.When the sword fell from Xiahouen's hand, Pei Yuanshao grabbed it and slashed bravely with Zhang Xiu.Xia Houen was killed by Zhang Xiu, Le Jin was defeated, Cao Jun lost his command for a while, and the chaos became even more out of control.

Seeing that nearly a thousand grain trucks of Cao's army were about to be burned, suddenly there were bursts of violent rage and killing.I saw Xun You and Chun Yu leading nearly [-] soldiers rushing forward.Seeing this, Zhang Xiu hurriedly shouted to Pei Yuanshao.

"Most of the other army's troops are about to arrive, General Pei don't bother you any more, get out quickly!"

Pei Yuanshao yelled at the sound, and then ordered his deployment to flee away, and Zhang Xiu also led his deployment to escape.When Xun You, Chunyu Dao and others arrived with their troops, the two civil armies had already withdrawn. Xun You hurriedly ordered the soldiers to put out the fire, and at the same time told Chunyu Dao to take precautions everywhere.

On the other side, Xia Houyuan, who was fighting with Gao Shun and Hu Che'er, suddenly saw the fire behind him, and immediately realized that his army's rations and supplies would be ambushed.Xia Houyuan was angry and impatient, his heart was short of food and grass, he didn't dare to love to fight any more, he insisted on swaying, leaving a part of the soldiers behind, and rushed to rescue with the rest of the elite soldiers.

Gao Shun and Hu Che'er did not go after them either, and immediately withdrew back to Taiyuan after rectifying their troops.Wen Jun's various ministries collected their troops and rushed to Taiyuan City. At dawn, Gao Shun, Hu Che'er, Zhang Xiu, and Pei Yuanshao all led their troops to Taiyuan City. Xu Shu had been waiting for a long time under the city gate.

Gao Shun and other generals hurriedly got off their horses to meet Xu Shu.At this time, the generals no longer had any doubts about Xu Shu, and Pei Yuanshao even knelt down on one knee and pleaded guilty to Xu Shu.

"The strategist has a great plan, I have no eyes, I have offended many times before, and I hope that the strategist will have a lot, don't worry about it!"

When Xu Shu heard the words, he smiled brightly, and then helped Pei Yuanshao to comfort him.The generals also admire Xu Shu's generosity.Afterwards, the generals went to the city to have a banquet and reward the sergeants, of course it was no problem.

However, Xia Houyuan led the army to the fire, and all the soldiers put out the fire. According to statistics, nearly half of the food, grass and supplies were burned.If Xun You hadn't made arrangements in time, I'm afraid there would be nothing left of the food, grass and luggage.Xia Houyuan was very angry in his heart, he gnashed his teeth and shouted.

"I would rather die here, and swear to merge the state!!!"

Seeing that Xia Houyuan was so irritable, Xun You quickly remonstrated.

"General Xiahou must not be so irritable. If you are irritable, you will be easily confused. How can you defeat the other army like this! Although Gao Shun has the right way to lead the army, he doesn't necessarily have such a strategy. There must be an expert in Bingzhou to advise him. , General Xiahou should be cautious!"

"Admiral!? According to local reports, Xi Zhicai is guarding Hanoi, Tian Yuanhao and Li Zhongwen are deploying soldiers and horses in Xiliang, and Cheng Gongying is in Dongchuan. Wen Han has advisers, but these are the four. These four No one is in Bingzhou, so who is the master who conspired for it!?"

Xia Houyuan was good at taking people's words, and immediately his anger died down, his tiger eyes narrowed, and his face became serious.Xun You was also thinking on the side, when the judge who was on the side suddenly called out.

"I heard earlier that the Xu family moved to Hedong. Earlier, the prime minister ordered Cheng Zhonglang to write a fake family letter, which tricked Xu Yuanzhi into leaving Xinye. If Xu Yuanzhi found out that his family had gone to Hedong halfway, would he also go to Hedong!?"

"This! If it's really that Xu Yuanzhi, the battle of Bingzhou must be full of difficulties!"

Xun You frowned, and his expression became a little more worried.

"Even so, the battle of Bingzhou is imperative. After a while, half of our army's luggage has been burned. If there is a stalemate with the other army in the future, the supply of food and grass will not be enough, and the army's morale will definitely be in chaos. Please also ask the supervising army to rush back to Jizhou, and then charge food and grass There is not much food in Jizhou, so the inspecting and supervising army must be careful not to lose anything."

Xia Houyuan's expression was certain, and he spoke very calmly.The examiner listened to the words, nodded and accepted the order.After discussing with Xun You and Shen Pei, Xia Houyuan slowed down his marching speed a little, and at the same time sent Shen Pei back to Jizhou to ask for supplies.

Xia Houyuan was cautious all the way, and rushed to Taiyuan ten miles outside the city, surrounded by mountains and rivers, ordered his soldiers to cut down trees and set up camps.Xun You came to find Xia Houyuan and offered advice.

"At this time, our army has not set up a camp, so we can lure the other army to come and rob the camp. If the other army really comes, it will scatter ambushes in all directions, leaving no one in the army. When the trumpets sound and the ambushes are all set up, they can be taken down for a while, so as to shock the army!"

Xun You is highly intelligent, and among the advisers under Cao Cao's command, his talent is not inferior to Guo and Jia in the slightest.Therefore, Cao Cao was relieved to hand over the battle of Bingzhou to Xia Houyuan and Xun You.As soon as Xun You came up with this plan, Xia Houyuan immediately showed joy and asked anxiously.

"A military strategist's plan is great, but how to lure it?"

"The general can make the soldiers pretend to be decadent due to the lack of food ahead. If the scouts of the other army find out and report back, tell Gao Shun. Gao Shun may not be able to resist the temptation and send troops to rob the camp. At that time, this plan will be Ke Ji Ye!"

"That Xu Yuanzhi is really amazing, I'm afraid he will find out that there is a fraud in it!"

"General Xiahou can rest assured. Xu Yuanzhi has just joined the other army, and the army's prestige has not yet been established. How can the other army's generals obey his words?"

Xun Youji spoke sternly and quickly. After hearing this, Xia Houyuan felt that the plan was very feasible, so he acted according to the plan and passed on orders to the generals.According to the order, the generals have completed the ambush.

On the other side, Wen Jun's scouts reported back, Gao Shun heard that the morale of Cao's army was low, and the shed had not been erected.However, Pei Yuanshao and Hu Che'er, who were present at the table, were overjoyed and got up one after another to ask for orders, vowing to lead the troops to attack the camp.

Xu Shu listened to the words and hurriedly attended the lecture.

"Impossible! Xiahou Miaocai and Xun Gongda are both scrupulous people, how could they have been unprepared. If they intentionally lure, lay down an ambush army, and go to attack the soldiers in the camp, they will surely suffer disaster!"

Pei Yuanshao immediately retorted because he had won a big victory before and thought that most of Cao Jun's food and grass had been burned, and the low morale was also reasonable.

"The military commander's words are absurd. I think that Xiahou Miaocai and Xun Gongda are just people with false names. Otherwise, our army would have easily burned more than half of their food and supplies before. What is there to fear! If this attack on the camp is successful, they will surely be captured alive. Xiahou Miaocai, capture Xun Gongda alive!"

"General Pei's words are true! If this is successful, Cao's army will be repelled and the danger of Bingzhou will be relieved! If General Gao is too cautious, he will only miss the opportunity!"

As soon as Pei Yuanshao finished speaking, Hu Che'er who was beside him immediately answered.Xu Shu secretly sighed in his heart, although Pei and Hu respected him a lot because of the previous victory, they still didn't believe in him.After Xu Shu thought about it, he didn't make a sound, but looked at Gao Shun.

Gao Shun was undecided for a while, he hesitated, and after thinking for a while, he said.

"Everything you say is reasonable. However, Cao Jun has always been deceitful, and there are no worthless men under his reputation. How can Xiahou Miaocai and Xun Gongda be mediocre people? Those who deceive the enemy will be defeated. We must guard against them. Otherwise, we will First send an army to investigate first, and then arrange two armies to respond on the left and right sides of the road. If it is really a plan, there can also be a response. If not, the three armies will kill together, and they will win a big victory! I don’t know what you think of this plan How?"

"I will follow General Gao's plan!"
