The son of Yuan Shao who traveled through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 191

The situation of Sun Quan and Wenpin who attacked Hefei was not as good. Lu Su guarded Huainan, Le Jiu, Lei Hai and Chen Lan sent Sun Gao and Fu Ying to assist him. 30 soldiers and horses nailed Sun Quan's [-] troops outside the city of Hefei, immobilized for a month. Finally, Gan Ning led a death squad out of the city, bypassed Sun Quan's army, and led a fleet to burn [-] Soochow warships.Fortunately, Sun Quan found out early, otherwise, he would have to swim back.Because Chaisang was overwhelmed by the pressure and was in emergency, Sun Quan had nothing to do with Hefei, so he had to lead his army back to fight Jingzhou soldiers.The Jingzhou soldiers were not stupid. The first time they received the news, they went ashore to grab a ticket. They robbed the beauty, treasure, salt merchants and tea merchants near Chaisang, and then sailed away.Sun Quan was almost mad with anger, but facing the two powerful naval forces in Huainan and Jingzhou, he could only swallow his anger.

Old Ma Teng was not to be outdone, and started to attack Hedong. As soon as he showed his head, he was dragged back by Zhang Lu's army that crossed Ziwu Valley.Ma Teng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said to himself, this bastard, who still calls me brother and brother, is simply a beast.

Ma Chao kept buzzing in his ears: "Dad, Dad, hurry up and send troops, it will be too late, take He Dong over, hurry up—"

Annoyed Ma Teng, he pointed to the door and said, "Close the door for me from the outside." Ma Chao happily went there, and after closing the door, he woke up, why did I come outside!
Sun Quan and Ma Teng's soldiers and horses could not move, and Cao Cao became a lone army.Ju Shou and senior cadre Guo Yuan outside Hulao Pass are also ready to move.

After Gan Ning left, no one argued with Xu Huang, he couldn't get used to listening, every day except when he was fighting, he was a little energetic and always drooped his head.

Tian Feng and Xun Yu met at the foot of Runan City, and shook hands cordially: "Master Tian, ​​you have made great contributions to conquering Xuzhou!" Tian Feng looked at Xun Yu who was not reused by his old master, and felt a lot. Jin dared to put the little-known Xun Yu on the ruling side of Huainan and take charge of it alone.It takes guts.The first thing to consider is Xun Yu's loyalty, and the second is his ability.If it was Cao Cao, he must have sent someone surnamed Cao, or someone surnamed Xiahou.But the facts prove that the lord is right, Xun Yu's talent is more than enough to manage Huainan, even if it is given to a prime minister, he is also competent.Gu Yong and Meng Gongwei stick to Shouchun and are not in the army. Xun Yu introduced Zhuge Jin, Liu Ye and Xu Huang to Tian Feng.Tian Feng had heard about it a long time ago, and knew that Huainan's power was not inferior to that of Jizhou, but he did not expect such a large number of talents.

Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Tian Feng, Zhao Yun, and Liu Ye held an emergency military meeting to discuss how to deal with Gao Shun's trap.Guo Jia put forward his strategy.

"If you are trapped in the camp and are invulnerable to swords and guns, you must be afraid of fire. Think about it, what will happen to a person covered in iron armor if he encounters a raging fire and high temperature."

Xun Yu said: "Feng Xiao's words are reasonable, but how to set the fire?" Guo Jia has already made the geography of Runan very clear these days, just like their living room, and said quickly: "Just drive him to Zhengzhou The reeds in the fifteenth li south will be fine." Zhao Yun smiled and said, "Gao Shun won't go there, his troops only fight on flat ground."

Lifting up the curtain of the handsome tent, Guo Jia pointed to the head of Runan City and said, "It's up to him whether to go or not. Cao Ren is in charge of Runan City at this moment. Although Cao Ren is a famous general, he has the same problem as Xiahou Dun, that is, he looks down on generals with foreign surnames. , Gao Shun must have tasted enough of being bullied in Runan City these days. At a critical moment, father and son brothers are suspicious of each other, let alone Cao Ren Gao Shun! As long as I play a little trick, I will definitely be able to force Gao Shun to take risks. In a desperate situation."

Xun Yu has always admired Guo Jia's strategy; "Will the plan come out?" Guo Jia said: "Cao Ren is a violent, arrogant and narrow-minded man, with countless military exploits. You will be defeated by Xu Shu in Xinye. All you need is, Wen Ruo, you write a letter to Gao Shun, but let someone fall into Cao Ren's house by mistake. Cao Ren naturally became suspicious of Gao Shun, and the letter said that our army would be outside the city An ambush was planted in Shiwuli, and when Gao Shun killed Cao Ren and opened the city gate, they entered the city together. Cao Ren decided to imprison Gao Shun's family and forced Gao Shun to lead his troops to destroy the ambush, as if they were innocent. Gao Shun wanted to protect The family is safe, and you must go if you know you are dead." Zhao Yun patted Guo Jia on the back, and said with a smile, "You have done meritorious deeds, honoring Xiao. This time you can get a general to do it." He didn't mention General Guo Jia. Jia couldn't get angry, and when he thought about it, he got angry, and muttered: "Yuan Xi, this boy—I'm just a captain at the moment, not even a school captain, and I'm still a general." Tian Feng thought, you and him They have a good relationship, like brothers and sisters, and give orders regardless of whether they have official positions, but they appear to be lords, and there is no nepotism. This trick is actually quite clever.

The setting sun was as bright as blood, and the eyes were full of haze. The hundreds of thousands of troops trampled non-stop, causing dust to fly for a hundred miles around. Take a breath, and you have to spit out half a mouthful of sand.The smell of sweat from horses wafted in the air.Even the famous dish 'Dragon Boat Melon' worth tens of taels of silver in Runan City is full of this taste.Generals and soldiers in armor with the smell of mutton, sweat, and blood, shuttled through the downtown area, and the bluestone slabs they stepped on made a creaking sound, and people avoided and flocked to them.They stayed in their armor for twelve hours, sitting at a wonton stand eating a bowl of wonton noodles, and the saber under their ribs was even sticky dripping blood - these situations, at the beginning, can scare many people to death, and after a long time , everyone got used to it, and some even dared to make fun of the bleeding sword. "Why is this unlucky ghost's blood so thin, he must not be able to eat enough all day long!" At this moment, among the densely packed crowd, where even a green onion was struggling, suddenly three or five war horses flew past, and it was too late to dodge. The old people and children were trampled on their heads and stomachs by the iron hoofs with horseshoes on them, just like trampling on a puddle of cow dung, spraying passers-by with blood all over their bodies.The knight on the horse was still shouting: "Urgent military situation, urgent military situation—Idlers get out of the way—"

After several years of fighting, the people in Runan took death lightly, and lived their lives like this. If they could live an extra quarter of an hour, it was their mother's money.Everyone wanted Yuan Jun to retreat, but also wondered why General Cao didn't surrender!

Cao Ren stroked his steel-file-like beard stubble in a daze.He couldn't figure out why Cao's army, who had been invincible in just a few years, had come to such a desperate situation.Three 10,000+ troops besieged Runan City, and Luoyang could not send reinforcements.The prime minister even ordered to abandon Runan and retreat to Yingchuan. Obviously, he had the idea of ​​abandoning Luoyang and moving the capital to Chang'an. This is following Dong Zhuo's old path!Lao Tzu, I will not give up on Runan. Huainan soldiers want to enter Runan City unless they step on my dead body.

The light coming in through the panes changes from yellow to red, and from red to black.Cao Ren rolled up his hair in a bun, inserted hairpins, put on his armor, and said to the two concubines who were lazily sleeping on the bed: "When I come back, I will fight on the pillow with you." With strands of hair sticking out, she looked exhausted.Cao Ren was originally a very diligent soldier. He was desperate when he was impulsive, but most of them could keep calm.In terms of shortcomings, it may be the laurels of his younger brother of Prime Minister Cao.He is not very polite to generals with surnames outside, bossy and unpopular, he and Xiahou Dun are the craziest among the generals of the Cao family.He often pointed to Gao Shun's forehead and said: "You are just a dog of my Cao family, dare to question my words." From the day Cao Cao retreated to Luoyang, he started drinking to find women, and an inexplicable sadness troubled him. Let him forget his worries only when he is running on the snow-white body.

Gao Shuncheng's mansion is extremely deep, no matter what he thinks in his heart, he will not show it on his face.

Just as Cao Ren walked out the door, the butler ran over and said, "General, someone sent a letter, but he sent it by mistake. It was for General Gao Shun."

Cao Ren was taken aback; "Where did the letter come from?" The housekeeper shook his head.Cao Ren snatched the letter from the butler's skinny hand, and almost tore it together with the butler's hand.He opened the bundled bamboo slips without hesitation, took a closer look, his whole body shook, and he took half a step back.Cao Ren immediately realized that this was the enemy's countermeasure.But at the same time, he also felt a cold, pale knife on his neck, which made him shiver.If this is true, wouldn't it be over?

critical moments.

If it was someone else, he would definitely be killed.But Gao Shun, a generation of famous generals, and with high prestige, was a bit tricky.Cao Ren was determined, he would rather believe what he had or not, so he decided to try him first.Just as Guo Jia thought, Cao Ren straddled his horse and led the army, and went straight to Jia in Gaoshun Mansion.

Three thousand personal soldiers surrounded the small mansion tightly.When Gao Shun came out and saw it, his face was ashen and his lips trembled.Gao Shun has broad shoulders and thick back, slender waist and long legs, deep eyes and double pupils, slightly thick lips, three beautiful beards, and bronze complexion.At first glance, there is a kind of complex bravery, calmness, and caution exuding from the whole body.

Before Gao Shun could speak, Cao Ren laughed and said, "General Gao, many spies from Yuan Jun have mixed into Runan City today. I am afraid that they will make trouble in the mansion, so I sent someone to protect." Sighing in his heart, Gao Shun He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General, for your thoughtful thinking. Thank you Gao Shun. The mansion happens to be short of guards." Gao Shun ushered Cao Ren into the hall and took a seat.Cao Ren was arrogant, and cut straight to the point: "I just learned the information that someone in the city wanted to be Yuan Jun's internal response and agreed to sacrifice the city. Yuan Jun is already fifteen miles away, waiting for the order to sacrifice the city at night, and they rushed in. This matter is extremely difficult, I don't know what strategy General Gao has to defeat the enemy."

Gao Shun felt as if someone had punched him in the heart, and he almost went into shock. He immediately stated: "This is easy. You only need to kill the traitors in Xiancheng, and then lead Yuan Jun into the city to ambush and wipe them out. It will be a great success."

Cao Ren said angrily, "It's a pity that we don't even know who the spy is? He's hiding so deeply!"

"This—" Gao Shun's face sank like water, he hesitated to speak.Cao Ren looked at his words and said, "Does the general have a strategy?" Gao Shun probably sensed something and shook his head: "The general is dull, please show me."

Cao Ren smiled grimly and said, "Since the spies can't be found out, to be on the safe side, it's better to go out of the city and defeat the ambush." ​​Gao Shun looked at the Cao soldiers inside and outside the courtyard, and said without hesitation, "The general is willing to invite troops to fight."

Cao Ren nodded and said, "General, please set up the five thousand trap camp and go to the north of the city to meet the enemy fifteen miles away." In a field of reeds, if you fall into the camp, if you are attacked by fire, you will—" Cao Ren sneered: "General Gao is too worried, and Yuan Jun doesn't know that you are trapped in the camp and go back to attack, how can you prepare firearms in advance, don't worry, sister-in-law and the two baby, I'll take care of it for you."

Gao Shun's heart instantly turned to iron and stone, that's all, my life is over.If you go, you will die, if you don't go, you will die. If you go, you can save the lives of your wife and children, but if you don't go, no one will live.

The reeds in the wind are like waves and tides, undulating like brocade.The wilderness is vast and the grass is luxuriant, just like Gao Shun's state of mind at this time.Under the setting sun, at the foot of the mountain, the shadows of the mountains and trees.Three miles away, a small poplar tree meanders away, and patches of reed flowers dance with the wind.A piece of reed marshes thousands of feet east and west, and hundreds of feet north and south, lay in front of the army.There is only a small path with three people parallel in the middle.As far as Tibetans are concerned, they can hide at least 30 to [-].

Gao Shun dared not leave after three miles away.Stopping and watching, countless powerful arrows suddenly shot out from the reeds, hitting the armor of the soldiers in the trapped camp like popping beans, but failed to cause any damage to the soldiers.Judging by the density of arrows, there are at least ten thousand people.Gao Shun ordered 4000 people to fall into the camp and stay on the main road to ensure smooth flow, so that even if the enemy set fire to it, they could escape.He led [-] people to kill Luweidang.

Suddenly, the way was blocked by a pile of pots and jars, about seven or eight thousand.At night, I couldn't see clearly, and Siri fell down with a splash.A strong smell of tung oil invaded the soldier's nostrils.Countless such bottles and jars suddenly shot out from the reeds, and they were all thrown on the soldiers of the trapped camp. When the bottles and jars were broken, black and smelly tung oil flowed out from inside.Gao Shun shouted loudly: "Fire attack—fire attack—quick—quick retreat—" Countless rockets shot out from the path among the reeds like swarms of fireflies, and the tung oil in bottles and jars In case of fire, it will be ignited immediately.Flames rose from under their feet and steamed upwards, and the trapped soldiers who were covered in tung oil turned into shafts of fire in an instant.Gao Shun ordered to retreat.

Countless Yuan Bing suddenly appeared in the reed marsh, and the vast expanse of reed marshes instantly fell into a sea of ​​flames.The high temperature generated by the sea of ​​fire can melt armor across three miles.Within a hundred miles of reflection, it is as bright as day.The armor of the camp is more like the color of boiled molten iron.

The Yuan Army infantry who came out of the reeds took advantage of the situation and smashed the chests of the soldiers in the camp with their maces, spitting blood from the mouths of the soldiers who were not willing to fight back, and their heart and gallbladder were broken until they died.Armor that is invulnerable to swords and guns cannot withstand this powerful new weapon.

Gao Shun escaped alone and returned to Runan City with a thousand soldiers three miles away.When the horn sounded, a group of men and horses rushed towards them. General Yuan, who was shaped like a model and looked like a big girl, came over.He shouted sharply: "I am Zhao Zilong from Changshan, so when will Gao Shun surrender?"

Gao Shun thought to himself, this place is only fifteen miles away from Runan, Cao Ren will definitely send reinforcements.Although there are only a thousand soldiers in hand, it is enough to break out of the encirclement.

Gao Shun didn't dare to challenge Zhao Yun one-on-one. He went around and entered Yuan Jun's camp. He found that Yuan Jun was using a big axe and a mace, all aimed at the chest of the trapped camp.Suddenly, two lunatics with big axes appeared in Yuan Junzhong, sweeping towards him left and right.Xu Huang on the left and Zhong Jin on the right.Wielding the big axe, it went straight to his chest.Gao Shun knew the weakness of the camp's armor, and desperately protected his chest. After thirty strokes, he couldn't resist. Zhong Jin was better. Xu Huang's martial arts were obviously better than him. I can't stand it anymore.

The rescuers sent by Cao Ren were stopped by Jiang Yiqu, Zhong Shen, Yan Ming, and Li Gang on the way, and the two sides were also fighting hard.Because of the superiority in military strength, Guo Jia ordered the troops to attack the city at the same time, and three places blossomed, which involved Cao Ren's energy. With luck, Runan City was also breached.Cao Ren also regretted it now, he knew that Gao Shun was wronged.

Xu Huang's hundred-pound ax struck Gao Shun's head with the sound of wind and thunder, and hissed, "Gao Shun, don't you surrender?" How can I bear it.No, no matter what, he cannot be captured alive!
Gao Shun had the idea of ​​going all out, and he became reckless when he shot.Xu Huang was forced back several steps by him.The tip of Zhao Yun's spear has been shuttling through the gaps between the necks of the camp's armor. It is extremely accurate, and anyone he aims at will be fatal with one shot.Seeing that Xu Huang was forced to retreat by Gao Shun like a mad tiger, Zhong Jin was stabbed in the back, and Zhao Yun immediately gave up his soldiers to fight Gao Shun.Gao Shun's sword technique has lost its structure, and he is desperate.Suddenly, a pitch-black gun head accurately pierced his throat through heavy blade shadows, and he fell off the horse with just one move.

After Gao Shun's death, the remaining hundreds of trapped fighters panicked. They belonged to the heavily armed trapped camp. Their biggest shortcoming was that they ran slowly.In this situation, no one could escape, but no matter how Xu Huang and others shouted, they didn't kneel down and beg for mercy.A soldier trapped in the camp was often smashed to death with a mace after hacking and killing more than a dozen Yuan Jun.To pack up 1000 people, it cost almost 6000 to [-] people. Fortunately, the number of Yuan Jun is dozens of times that of the trapped camp.No matter how brave they are, they can't turn over.The flames were overwhelming, and the burned warriors, their skin and steel armor stuck together, wailing—rolling—
