The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 82 082

The so-called anesthetic was obtained by Zhang Yan from Fan A, and its real name should be Mafeisan.

Mafeisan was developed by Hua Tuo himself, and Hua Tuo often uses it.As Hua Tuo's apprentice, Fan A would naturally prepare it.

Zhang Yan took Cao Ren into and out of the school grounds many times, and appeared in front of the group of Cao soldiers who surrendered, all using Mabosan to control Cao Ren.

As soon as Zhang Yan's words fell, Xu Sheng asked someone to bring the prepared Mafeisan, mixed it into the water, and poured Cao Ren to drink it.

When Cao Ren saw Ma Feisan, his expression changed drastically, and he shouted at Zhang Yan, "If you want to kill him, kill him. Why do you want me to drink this? I won't drink it!"

"You have to drink if you don't drink, it's up to you!" Zhang Yan said sharply.

While speaking, Xu Sheng and others opened Cao Ren's mouth, and then poured Mafeisan down Cao Ren's throat.

After Cao Ren was forced to drink Mafeisan, it didn't take long before he felt that his body was gradually paralyzed, and he couldn't move. He stood there stiffly, unable to speak, only his eyes could move.

Zhang Yan whispered a few words in Xu Sheng's ear, Xu Sheng nodded repeatedly, led someone to push Cao Ren out, and opened Cao Ren's handcuffs.

After leaving the cell, Zhang Yan asked someone to bring a suit of armor and put it on for Cao Ren. Accompanied by Xu Sheng, Cao Ren rode on his horse and walked slowly towards the outside of the city.

When passing through the city gate, Cao Jun's descendants stationed in the city were full of energy when they saw Cao Ren's figure again.

Cao Ren's eyes turned, and seeing that these surrendered soldiers had already put on the clothes of Xuzhou soldiers, and he was under the control of others, he felt helpless for a while.

"General Cao and I were ordered to spy on the enemy's camp outside the city, you all wait here carefully, don't be distracted!" Xu Shenglang said.

All the soldiers replied in unison: "Here!"

The gate of Zhuyi was opened wide, Xu Sheng and Cao Ren rode their horses, and immediately left the city and drove into the darkness.

Tonight the moon is covered by thick clouds, there is no moonlight, and the earth is dark.Xu Sheng and more than a dozen cavalry led Cao Ren forward. After walking about five miles, they met a scout and got news from the scout that Yuan Jun's vanguard, Sun Ce, had set up camp thirty miles away.

Xu Sheng led Cao Ren to continue walking forward, and after a short drive, he finally arrived at the camp where Sun Ce was.

Yuan Jun's camp is very simple, just set up a tent on an open space, but the outside is covered with antlers and horses, and the lights in the barracks are brightly lit, and teams of patrolling soldiers are constantly moving around, which shows that the defense is really serious. tight enough.

Xu Sheng looked from a distance, but he didn't dare to approach easily, took out a big bow, tied the letter he had prepared earlier to an arrow, and then moved forward slowly, when he was close to the shooting range, Xu Sheng put the arrow on it. On the bowstring, he pulled the bowstring hard, and then shot towards Yuan Jun's barracks.

"Whoosh!"

The arrow pierced the sky, moved forward quickly, and shot directly into Yuan Jun's barracks.

A patrol team passed by here, and the arrow, which was at the end of its strength, just fell in front of them, which immediately caused panic among Yuan Jun's soldiers.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

The shout was like thunder, which shocked the entire barracks. All Yuan Jun soldiers were startled and came out of the barracks one after another.

When Sun Ce heard the cry, he also hurried out of the big tent, and immediately ordered the soldiers to strictly guard the camp, and Yuan Jun's soldiers were even more serious.

Time passed for a long time, but there was no more attack, so Sun Ce approached the patrol team to inquire, and accidentally found a letter tied to the arrow.

Sun Ce opened the letter and browsed it hastily, but saw that the letter was written by Zhang Yan, Mu of Xuzhou, to Yuan Shu, to the effect that he wanted to please Yuan Shu, and hoped that the two families would stop their troops and continue to fulfill the ally relationship Tao Qian had when he was in charge of Xuzhou. For this reason, a special gift was given to Yuan Shu, which was Cao Ren, a general under Cao Cao's tent, and he informed Cao Ren of his location.

After reading the letter, Sun Ce was skeptical, so he sent a team of cavalry to look for Cao Ren outside the camp. Sure enough, he found Cao Ren in armor under a big tree and brought him back to the barracks.

Sun Ce didn't dare to make decisions without authorization, so he immediately sent the letter and Cao Ren Xingye to Yuan Shu's barracks, and asked Le Jiu and Liang Gang to strengthen their night guards.

Cao Ren and the letter were sent to Yuan Shu's barracks. Only then did Cao Ren know what Zhang Yan was going to do, which was to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

However, now Cao Ren is paralyzed and unable to move, so he can only be slaughtered.It's just that he felt a little worthless. It was a shame that he didn't die at the hands of Zhang Yan who defeated him, but at the hands of Yuan Shu, the former defeater.

Yuan Shu's army was stationed on the banks of the Tuohe River. As soon as he received the letter sent by Sun Ce, he opened it and read it. When he learned that Cao Ren was also sent, he was elated and asked to have Cao Ren brought in.

Cao Ren was pushed into the big tent and fell to the ground, kneeling in front of Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu glanced at Cao Ren, laughed loudly and said, "Cao Zixiao, you never dreamed that such a scene would happen today, did you?"

Cao Ren could not speak, and could only answer Yuan Shu with his eyes, which were full of contempt and disdain.

Seeing this, Yuan Shu didn't talk nonsense to Cao Ren, and immediately had someone cut off one of Cao Ren's ears in front of him.

The heart-piercing pain was unbearable for Cao Ren, but his tongue was numb and he couldn't scream at all. The blood flowed from his ears, and half of his face was already stained red with blood.

After Yuan Shu saw it, he became even more excited, and ordered someone to cut off Cao Ren's other ear.

For a period of time afterwards, Yuan Shu took pleasure in torturing Cao Ren. He cut off Cao Ren's nose and tongue, and had Cao Ren's eyes gouged out.

Finally, after an hour of torture, Cao Ren was finally tortured to death.

After Cao Ren's death, Yuan Shu was still angry. He ordered Cao Ren's head to be beheaded, hung on a flagpole, and Cao Ren's body was chopped up and fed to the wild wolves.

The poor generation of heroes died so tragically, even Ji Ling, Zhang Xun and others under Yuan Shu's tent felt a burst of regret when they saw it.

However, Ji Ling and Zhang Xun knew in their hearts that the reason why Yuan Shu hated Cao Ren so much was because Yuan Shu's son died at the hands of Cao Ren.Facing such an enemy, Yuan Shu used this method to vent his anger, which is also human nature.

Afterwards, Yuan Shu asked someone to clean up the blood in the big tent, but the strong bloody smell never dissipated.

For this reason, Yuan Shu changed another place to be the big tent of the Chinese army, and ordered all the civil servants and military personnel in the tent to be called into the big tent. Don't Jia Yuan Yin, Chang Shi Yang Hong, Qi Duwei Huang Yi, Qi Duwei Liu Xun and others arrived at the tent one after another.

In the big tent, Yuan Shu sat upright, looked around at the people in the big tent, and circulated the letter brought by Zhang Yan to everyone.

After everyone finished watching, Yuan Shu said: "You all have finished reading. Before my army arrived in Xuzhou, Zhang Yan was scared out of his wits. He took the initiative to write a letter to form an alliance with me, and handed over Cao Ren to me, saying Give me a lot of money and food. Just relying on these things, you want me to stop fighting here? Don't think about it!"

Zhang Xun said: "My lord, Qiao Rui's three thousand soldiers died in the hands of Xuzhou soldiers. He wants to come here to ask for peace at this time. Why did he go so early? Our army came here from Huainan all the way. What is it for?" , is to capture the entire Xuzhou. My lord, don’t pay attention to Zhang Yan’s peace letter, we should go all out and capture Xuzhou.”

Yuan Shu said: "Not only Xuzhou, but also Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Qingzhou. I heard that Cao Cao's Yanzhou was attacked by Lu Bu. The two sides are confronting each other in Yanzhou. After our army occupies Xuzhou, we will attack Yanzhou. We must completely defeat Cao Cao. , Yuzhou is in turmoil, the governor appointed by the imperial court is incompetent, and the counties and states are independent and often attack each other. I want to take advantage of this opportunity to divide the army into two groups and send a force to capture Yuzhou..."

Hearing this, Yan Xiang, the chief secretary, immediately interrupted Yuan Shu, and hurriedly said: "My lord, our army should deal with Xuzhou with all our strength. Yuzhou has become a mess. We will not participate now. Why don't we let Yuzhou continue to be chaotic? We have conquered Xuzhou, and it will not be too late to drive the victorious army to attack Yuzhou."

"It is precisely because Yuzhou has become a mess, and the counties and states are doing their own things, so our army can take advantage of the chaos and attack. I have made up my mind, and if there are any more words, I will be killed!" Yuan Shu said resolutely.

Yan Xiang didn't speak anymore, but he sighed heavily in his heart.

Afterwards, Yuan Shu looked around at the people in the tent, fixed his gaze on Captain Huang Yi, and shouted loudly: "Huang Yi!"

Huang Yi is young, fair-skinned, and handsome. He is Yuan Shu's son-in-law, and it is precisely because of this relationship that he became the riding captain.Hearing his father-in-law Yuan Shu's shout, he immediately stood up, clasped his fists and said, "The last general is here!"

"I'll give you [-] soldiers and horses, and take Lei Bo, Chen Lan, and Li Feng with you to capture Yuzhou. I hope you won't let me down."

Huang Yi was overjoyed, and immediately said: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely conquer Yuzhou, and I will definitely not disappoint my lord's high expectations!"

Seeing that sending troops to Yuzhou had become a fact, Yan Xiang did not object any more, but when he heard that Yuan Shu asked his son-in-law Huang Yi to lead the army, he cupped his fists and said, "My lord, Huang Yi joined the army not long ago, and the soldiers he led were only a few hundred cavalry, my lord. The son handed him [-] soldiers and horses, and the subordinates were worried that Huang Yi would not be able to command them, so it is better to choose another veteran general who has more experience in leading troops and fighting. The subordinates think that Liu Xun, the captain of cavalry, can take on this important task!"

Huang Yi was furious, and yelled at Yan Xiang: "Lord Yan, although I, Huang Yi, have not brought many soldiers and horses, I have read military books and are very familiar with the art of war. Why not lead this army?"

Yan Xiang said: "War is not a child's play. Although you have read military books and are familiar with the art of war, you have never led an army in battle, and the war is changing rapidly, and it is not static. I am not saying that you do not have that ability, but that you lack experience. I am afraid that you will be on the battlefield. Going up, I will be at a loss..."

"Okay, alright, although Huang Yi is young and vigorous, he has never led soldiers alone, but this does not mean that he cannot lead soldiers. However, what Yan Zhubo said is very reasonable..." Yuan Shu thought for a while, and said : "How about this, Liu Xun, you and Huang Yi will go together and lead this army together. Huang Yi will be the main general and you will be the deputy general."

Liu Xun clasped his fists and said, "Here!"

Yuan Shu instructed Huang Yi again: "Liu Xun is a senior general in the army and has rich experience. You should ask him for advice in everything. I am waiting for the good news of your capture of Yuzhou!"

Huang Yi said: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely complete the mission in the end!"

The next day, at dawn, Yuan Shu set up camp, and the army was divided into two. Huang Yi and Liu Xun led Lei Bo, Chen Lan, Li Feng and [-] horse infantry and headed towards Qiao County.

Qiao County was the governor's seat of Yuzhou, and it happened to be within the territory of Pei State, so it naturally became Yuan Shu's first target to attack.

Yan Xiang watched Huang Yi and others leave the barracks, sighed heavily, and was even more worried about the future of this army.

Yuan Shu led his army forward, joined forces with Sun Ce, and approached the city of Zhuyi. A great battle is about to begin...
