Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 1841 You can also change jobs

Yangcheng Mountain in the north and Shaoshi Mountain in the south, the mountain range connected by the two peaks is like a slanting passage leading to Xu County constructed by nature. Once you enter this end, you can only go there. come out.

  When Zhang Liao led people into this passage, Xiahou Dun was patrolling the top of Yangcheng City. In the past few days, Xiahou Dun has been tossing and turning every day, and he can't even fall asleep for much time in one night.

   During this period of time, under the leadership of Xiahou Dun, Cao Jun in Yangcheng strengthened Yangcheng's defense system again and again, but Xiahou Dun still felt quite uneasy in his heart. Although Xiahoudun's soldiers were organized and trained, they were more rigorous than ordinary county soldiers, but after comparing them with the hussars, they seemed to have exposed some fundamental deficiencies.

For some unknown reason last night, someone suddenly howled in the middle of the night, which almost caused a commotion in the city. Fortunately, Xiahou Dun has been on the scene very quickly these days, so he quickly suppressed the restlessness of the army without causing a bigger commotion. The question comes. General Hussars led most of the cavalry this time, and Xiahou Dun, who was firmly guarding the city, should not have to worry about the safety of the city, but for some reason, Xiahou Dun always felt that there was a hidden danger in his heart, but he couldn't find it. specific answers.

  The cavalry led by Zhu and Zhang suddenly pierced under Xu County, as if they had smashed open a door, and the flash of light made Xiahou Dun almost blindfolded. So there is such a war mode? Although it is said that there is no direct attack on the city, logically speaking, there should be no loss to the city, but in fact, when Zhu and Zhang arrived, no matter whether it was Yangcheng or Xu County, they were both trembling and had to face the enemy. Let go of all the livelihoods outside the city and concentrate in the city, not to mention those manors in the suburbs that don't have much ability to protect themselves...

   This is pretty scary.

The Great Han, since the Eastern Han regime chose Luoyang as the capital and gave up Guanzhong and Beidi, they have basically not suffered huge pressure from the Hu people, so that they are much lower than the Xiongnu in the Western Han Dynasty. The Xiqiang rebellion at the same level cannot be defeated.

  So Xiahou Dun and others still follow the inherent thinking of fighting in the Han Dynasty for decades, and naturally they can't keep up with the development of Hussar General's model.

   Don't these people need to eat food and grass?

  People can hunt or fish to reduce some dry food consumption, but what about war horses? War horses always have to eat, right? It is also impossible to eat omnivores like humans. How did the hussars persist for so many days?

   Such questions have been lingering in Xiahou Dun's mind, just like the generals of some farming dynasties in later generations often had such questions when facing nomadic cavalry. These are two completely different modes of life, two modes of thinking, and now, Hussar General Fei Qian seems to have mastered them, showing this way in front of Xiahou Dun and others.

Zhu and Zhang smashed Xiahou Dun's defense and went straight to the depths. The signal released after the change of the war mode made Xiahou Dun and others considered first-class generals, and there was a lot of shock in their hearts. After all, this happened in their own home. What happened to him was far more profound than the Battle of Ye City. As the saying goes, most of what happens to others will become a story, and only what happens to oneself will feel hurt and pain.

  Although the hussar general in Luoyang has not made any moves, Xia Houdun always thinks that the hussar general will come here, will come in this direction, and will go straight to Xu County like Zhu and Zhang!

But such a judgment is just a personal feeling. Xiahou Dun could not find any evidence to prove this point. On the contrary, the changes in Hanoi in the north and the contact war in Chenliu territory proved that General Hussars focused on the north and the middle. ,but…

  Who knew?

  If this time Hussars General Fei Qian brought elites like Zhu and Zhang, then the soldiers and horses he worked so hard to rectify in Yuzhou, Yingchuan, are really his opponents?

Originally, Xiahoudun still had some confidence. After all, many of these soldiers and horses were trained by his subordinates, and he also felt that his command was smooth and sharp when dealing with the bandits around him. His subordinates are still a bit behind the boss. God knows how the soldiers and horses of General Hussars were trained, and what kind of life-and-death struggles they went through to forge such a shocking and frightening army...

  Xiahoudun sometimes hopes that the Hussar General will go north instead of south. Although it is somewhat unkind to think so, after all, the pressure to face the Hussar General is a bit heavy, which makes Xiahou Dun somewhat uncomfortable. It's a pity that wishing is such a strange thing to say. Basically, God likes to give the opposite. The more you want something deep in your heart, the less it will be. The more you don't want something to come, and then something will come. Like disease and housing prices.

When a wisp of smoke and dust rose in the distance, Xiahou Dun's heart sank and kept sinking, repeatedly falling into the bottomless abyss. He seemed to hear the sound of war drums in his ears. Xiahou Dun pressed on the battlements His fingers were a little white, and there was only one thought that spread out in his mind, and then filled all the space.

  『Fei Qian is here, Hussars are here! 』

   Then Xiahou Dun's next thought was a chill in his heart, "My child..."

  …ヽ(`Д)┻━┻…

   Time went back to a few hours ago.

   It is Xia Houchong who guards the Yangcheng cottage and provides Yangcheng with outpost defense and early warning.

  In the Han Dynasty, people got married relatively early, so Xiahouchong was not too young. This time Xiahoudun had a heavy responsibility. As his son, Xiahouchong naturally needed to share his father's worries.

  Before Zhang Liao attacked, Xia Houchong was just because there were still lazy guys in the camp in the dark of night, which naturally aroused Xia Houchong's great anger. Why did Xia Houchong know? It's very simple, because Xia Houchong stepped on it when he personally led the patrol.

All of a sudden, the anger rose, it was as if the uncle could bear it and the aunt couldn't bear it. There were military regulations and regulations, and they dug the cesspit on purpose, but some people were too lazy to go to the cesspit every three days, and no one could see it in the dark. He defecated in a hidden place around the corner, and then Xia Houchong stepped on it and won the big prize.

  『Who pulled it? ! 』

  But how could you find an answer to this kind of thing?

   Anxious Xia Houchong walked with an indescribable taste, scolding all the way, all the way up the wall of the village, condescending to the inside of the village, let go of his voice, even the local accent popped out...

  『A group of picky people! Er Qingtou! Lack of leaves! Dogs are better than sheep! Mud can't stick to the wall! Lao Tzu is too kind to you! If the fence is missing, you should repair it right away! The trench is too shallow to let you dig it right away! Small daily mistakes, forget it if you can, and let it go if you can! 』

  『Now talk to the uncle one by one, take the big donkey bear! The **** is pulled to my feet, it's just a good life if you want to! Everyone is not sad, even I can't live a stable life! Everyone is like a monkey, let me roll up, those who build the walls of the village, those who clear the ditches, and those who dare to pull them in the camp, I tell him to pull them down and eat as much as they want! 』

Amid Xia Houchong's scolding, Cao Jun in the cottage naturally did not dare to touch bad luck, and quickly came out of their respective tents, and then under the orders of the team leader, Qu Chang, etc., took various Such tools get to work.

  Xia Houchong saw it, and then felt that his anger subsided.

The guards brought water and some hay to help Xia Houchong remove the dirt on the boots, but after all, it was either the rubber-soled smooth boots of the later generations, or the ordinary leather boots sewn with fur. Get rid of that ecstasy smell...

  The Xiahou family was not born, and they immediately mastered the so-called military essentials and the secrets of command. They only grew up by learning and verifying through continuous training. But neither Xiahoudun nor Xiahouchong expected that the opponent this time would be very different from usual.

Just when Xia Houchong felt that the smell on his feet was too ecstasy, he couldn't stand it anymore, and was about to leave the camp, go back to his tent, and change into a pair of cleaner boots, the mountain haze passed by his ears, and it seemed to bring out a little strange smell. The sound made Xia Houchong stunned for a moment, and then froze on the spot.

This abnormal sound has not stopped since the moment it appeared, and it is getting louder and louder. They all shook!

Xia Houchong was also almost unable to stand still. Looking back suddenly, he saw a black line jumping and expanding at the extreme end of the horizon, and then he could see the tricolor flag flying high, like a needle. Usually stabbed in the eyes, the stabbing is painful!

  『Hus... Hussars, Hussars are here! Here we come! 』

Teams of cavalry spread out along the front, and the spears of the horses were held high like a forest. On these blades, there were little cold lights jumping, as if they were all weapons forged from the Nine Nethers, which could freeze the opponent His blood flowed, and even his opponent's thoughts froze together!

At least, Xia Houchong waited until he could almost see the cavalry of the brigade, like a wall of steel, pressing towards his cottage, and then he was in a daze for a long time, as if he suddenly woke up, howling. The alarm sounded, and people hurriedly took bows, arrows and spears to the wall of the village for defense.

There were three or four hundred hussars who came face to face, and there were two more cavalry arrays deployed on the left and right sides. Human attack! Xia Houchong even believed that if his cottage was bigger, there might be even more people under the pressure of General Hushi!

   Murderous aura rose into the sky, and only the sound of people shouting and horses neighing and weapons and armor remained in the surrounding area!

  Who told that cavalry is not conducive to attacking cities?

  Who told Huqi not to come to Yingchuan, but to go to Jizhou?

The large group of cavalry in front of them advanced like a steel city wall, then adjusted their pace a little after traveling a certain distance, and then advanced again, directly forcing them to the edge of the cottage's range, and then saw the messengers rushing through, He walked back and forth among the cavalry formations like flowers and butterflies, making Xia Houchong a little dizzy. He knew that these messengers must be explaining the various offensive arrangements, and the next moment will definitely be a turbulent attack like a mountain and sea collapsing!

   But Xia Houchong himself did not have the slightest courage to go out to fight, and even felt that his legs were about to tremble...

  General Hussars is really planning to use flesh and blood to break the stronghold?

Although it is impossible to build a large-scale village connecting the two mountains due to the distance between Yangcheng Mountain and Shaoshi Mountain on both sides, a relatively narrow location was chosen as much as possible, and a two-story camp was built according to the terrain. It is high on the outside and low on the outside, and the back is against the mountain, which attracts mountain springs into the village. Although the other three sides can be accessed by people, only the front is easier to walk. The other two sides have more gravel and are steeper, which can be said to be quite good. A camp was established, but for some reason, Xia Houchong, who thought he was quite confident at first, seemed to have lost his original confidence and sense of security after seeing the hussars, and his heart became uneasy.

   Soon, the hussars before the cottage gave Xia Houchong an answer.

When the cavalry moved, the closer they got, the more dazzling it became. When the three cavalry teams started to move, Xia Houchong couldn't tell for a while which team was the main attack, which side was a feint attack, or whether they were both. yes or neither...

Some antlers, repelling horses and fences that were originally arranged under the stronghold were quickly pulled down or dragged away by the hussars with lassoes, and the arrows shot from above the stronghold did not give these The swimming cavalry caused a lot of direct damage. After the hussars paid the price of more than a dozen of their lives, they cleared a passage and exposed Xia Houchong's chrysanthemum, uh, the gate of the village...

   Immediately, the cavalry spread out to the two sides, while those who slowly moved up in the middle were heavy armored soldiers who had put on heavy armor and held shields at some point! Although there were not many people, but the steel battle wall that must be pushed forward made Xia Houchong's back drenched in cold sweat! If it weren't for the slightly smaller shields in the hands of these heavily armored soldiers, Xia Houchong would even think that what he was facing was not cavalry, but a battle formation of infantry!

  Most of his arrangements were aimed at cavalry, and he never thought that he would encounter such a group of heavily armored infantry!

"shoot! Shoot them dead! No, bows and arrows won't work, you need wood! What about 檑木? Where are the rolling stones? Move up, move up quickly! 』

In the face of the huge coercion, Xia Houchong's tone of voice was out of shape, and the movements of his soldiers seemed to be out of shape along with it. Although rolling stones and trees smashed down, they still couldn't stop the advance of these heavily armored soldiers , In addition, the hussars on both sides also dismounted and changed jobs to become temporary archers covering both sides, and the rain of arrows hit the wall of the village like hail!

The dense rain of arrows made Xia Houchong dare not show his head, so he could only shrink under the shields of the guards, not to mention the ordinary soldiers who had no shields and threw rolling stones and wood. Many Cao soldiers just didn't even look at it Look, it doesn't matter if you throw it anyway, so the accuracy and lethality can be imagined.

  Xiahouchong was horrified to find that the group of soldiers and horses he was facing appeared to be cavalry, but in fact, if necessary, these cavalry could also become archers, or armored swords and shields, pikemen, or even blasters...

Trenches, horse repelling, and shallow pits dug on the ground are mostly aimed at war horses, but for soldiers approaching on foot, they are almost useless. In addition to the protection of double armor and the shield of shields, unless they are really It's unlucky to be hit head-on by the Rolling Stone Wood, otherwise ordinary arrows would be like scratching an itch, and they wouldn't have much stopping effect on these heavy armored soldiers.

   Soon these heavy armored soldiers crossed the trench and gathered under the wall and gate of the village!

  Accompanied by several loud bangs, for Xia Houchong and Cao Jun in the cottage, both physical and psychological defenses collapsed amidst these bangs!
