Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 675 Death of General Baidi
Xia Houshang welcomed Xia Houyuan in. "Uncle, I want to avenge my brother." Mi Cangshan fell, Xia Houde was killed and it was found out, Xia Houshang's eyes were full of tears.

"This revenge must be avenged!"

Xia Houyuan's army advanced towards Dingjun Mountain, and Fazheng ordered the whole army to retreat to Dingjun Mountain.

Xia Houyuan still admired Guo Huai's strategy, and was not in a hurry to attack Dingjun Mountain. Instead, he set up a camp in Zouma Valley, ordered to cut down trees, set up several layers of antlers as a cover for the camp, and distributed 5000 people to Xia Houshang for him to guard. To the east, 5000 of our own guard the south.

On the top of the mountain, Fazheng, Zhao Yun, Wei Yan, Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi and others spy on Cao Ying's every move. Although the various arrangements are not exhaustive, they can be seen clearly.

"Mr. Xiaozhi, why didn't you fight Xia Houyuan?" Zhao Yun frowned.

"Our army has few soldiers and has come from a long distance. It is difficult to win by fighting with them at this time. The road is narrow, and the only way is to rely on soldiers to fight with flesh and blood. Mountains, when they are exhausted, they will rise up and attack them."

"If he doesn't come to attack the mountain, what can he do?"

"What a Xiahouyuan, he wants to trap us here." Wei Yan praised, "No wonder Cao Cao ordered him to guard Hanzhong, he deserves the word "miaocai."

Relatives belong to relatives, if Xia Houyuan didn't have two brushes, how could Cao Cao feel relieved to hand over Hanzhong to Xia Houyuan.Xia Houyuan's style name is Miaocai, which seems to be talented.

"If you want to break Xiahouyuan, you must first break the antlers it set up." Fazheng looked at it carefully for a long time, and pointed with his hand. "Look, Cao's army is divided into two large camps, east and south. Xiahou Shang is in the east and Xiahou Yuan is in the south. Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi, you two will take turns attacking Xiahou Shang's camp tonight. Xiahou Yuan will divide his troops to rescue. The southern camp is empty, General Zilong, you raid the southern camp with 5000 men, you don't want to break the camp, you just want to burn the antlers, breaking its defense is a great achievement."

"What about me?" Wei Yan asked.

"Tonight, Chief Wen, take your troops to recharge your batteries and wait in the middle of the mountain after you have had a full meal tomorrow morning. Let's see how Xia Houyuan responds, and then wait for my general order." Fazheng said, "It's not bad as I expected, Xia Houyuan will definitely be busy. Error."

The four of them were ordered to prepare separately, and Dufa was standing on the top of the mountain with his lieutenant Zhang Zhang to pay attention to Cao Jun.

On the ninth night of the second lunar month, Zhang Yi and Zhang Ni divided ten thousand people into ten teams, each with a thousand people storming Xiahoushang's camp.Xia Houshang firmly guarded the big camp, relying on several layers of antlers and a strong camp to fight back.With only one stick of incense, the first group of thousands of people was killed and injured, the second group of thousands of people continued to attack, and then the third and fourth groups.After the continuous onslaught, all the antlers set by Xia Houshang were destroyed, and the Shu army also paid the price of nearly 3000 casualties.

When the fifth group of thousand men attacked again, Xia Houshang was a little overwhelmed. The Shu army wanted to break through at all costs, so they hurriedly sent someone to ask Xiahouyuan for help. Xiahouyuan was rewarded and ordered Zhao Yong to guard In the southern camp, he brought 5000 people to reinforce Xia Houshang.

It was almost four o'clock at this time, Fazheng pinched his fingers, and now it was the seventh group of thousands of people. "The Son of Gao, General Long, strikes!"

Zhao Yun had already prepared something to light the fire, and was waiting for Fazheng's order.As soon as the order came, he immediately led 5000 people to attack the South Camp and set fire to the antlers.

The Shu army attacked fiercely. Xia Houyuan also mistakenly believed that the Shu army was going to attack Dongdaying. He had repelled the Shu army eight times. It is estimated that the Shu army had at least 5000 casualties. Compared with the Cao army's loss of only 2000 people, the Shu army attacked The momentum weakened, and Xia Houyuan was satisfied with the result.However, Zhao Yong came to report suddenly that the Shu army in Nanying was attacking, which surprised Xia Houyuan and hurried back to Nanying.

Because Xia Houyuan supported Dongying, Zhao Yong shrank his troops into the camp and defended the camp with arrows, instead of fighting with the Shu army with antlers.When Xia Houyuan turned back at dawn and Zhao Yun retreated, the southern camp was in a mess, all the antlers outside the camp were burned, and several places in the camp were damaged. Zhao Yong was organizing people to put out the fire.

Looking at the severely damaged defense, Xia Houyuan was filled with anger.Zhao Yong persuaded: "Why should you be angry, the general? The Shu army is fighting a trapped beast with nothing to do. This time I just burned the antlers and re-laid them. I am exhausted. What happened last night will not happen again. As long as If we hold the camp, the Shu army will be defeated!"

Not long after news came from Dongying that the Shu army had been repulsed, Xia Houyuan calmed down a little.Cao Jun was tossed all night, Xia Houyuan ordered the troops to be divided into three groups, one group rested and prepared for battle, one group felled trees, and the other group repaired antlers to reinforce the camp.But at this time, Xia Houyuan mistakenly thought that the Shu army was unable to launch another attack. In order to complete the defense as soon as possible, he personally joined the ranks of repairing the antlers.

"Haha, is Xiahou Miaocai trying to imitate Wu Qi?" Fa Zheng watched clearly from the mountain. "It's a pity, this is in front of the two armies, it's not the time. Send an order to Wen Zhang to attack quickly!"

Wei Yan and more than 4000 barbarians had enough food and drink at this time, rested for a whole day, and had a good sleep the night before, and their bodies were exhausted.Seeing the red flag raised on the top of the mountain, Wei Yan raised his sword and mounted his horse, "Follow me!"

Four thousand barbarians yelled and rushed towards Xiahouyuan's camp along the mountain road. Xiahouyuan was still carrying earth and rocks with his soldiers, and his confidants shouted loudly: "General, kill a group of Shu troops on the mountain. General, please return to the camp quickly."

"Stop talking nonsense, if I go back to the camp, wouldn't the Shu army take advantage of the trend and rush in! Take my horse and set up the formation!"

Xia Houyuan, with his helmet on top of his armor and a sword in his hand, commanded Cao's army to form a formation.Wei Yan's offensive was too fast, and the barbarians ran down from the mountainside to follow closely. Cao Jun was killed before he finished his formation, and Cao Jun, who was not fully prepared, had to fight.

The barbarian soldiers lack rules and regulations. If they are in an open area, the formation of the two sides may not be able to prevail in the battle, but this is on a high ground with uneven mountain roads. Cao Jun did not set up a formation. Just put down the ax and chisel and replace it with a weapon, it was a melee.In the melee, the barbarians who were accustomed to fighting independently took advantage of it, while Cao's army, which was accustomed to forming an organized battle, suffered a great loss and gradually showed signs of collapse.Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhao Yong dispatched troops to support Xia Houyuan, and Fazheng also ordered Zhao Yun to fight again.

At this time, Xia Houyuan aroused his fighting spirit to go forward again, swung his big knife and charged at Wei Yan, trying to cut Wei Yan under the horse with one blow.Wei Yan raised his saber to meet him, and the two swords kept flying, and the two of them fought together.

In terms of martial arts, Wei Yan and Xia Houyuan were evenly matched, but Xia Houyuan stayed up all night and did heavy physical work early in the morning. After twenty rounds, Xia Houyuan gradually felt a little exhausted.Just at this time, the horse's hooves stumbled and shook Xia Houyuan, Wei Yan seized the opening and slashed Xia Houyuan's shoulder with a knife. The big knife slashed from the right shoulder and fell from the left chest.

Cao's Eight Tiger Cavalry, that is, another general after Cao Chun and Cao Xiu died!
