Chapter 708

That night, Deputy General Xu Shengliu led 2,000 people to guard the camp, but he led his headquarters, sneaked out of the barracks, and the rank of person, the horse picked the bell, and quietly went all the way to the north.

After walking for only a few miles, suddenly there was a sound of hammering in front of him, and then the fire was bright, and countless Cao soldiers hugged Cao Ren and walked out. Cao Ren sat on the horse and laughed: "Xu Wenxiang, where are you going!" ”

But it turned out that Cao Ren was in the camp and was also thinking about the Yangzhou army. The two armies have been at war, and this will also figure out who the main general of the Yangzhou army is. Cao Ren felt that Xu Sheng would definitely not wait for death here. Because as long as you are not mediocre, you know that there is only one way to die with yourself here. Then Xu Sheng will definitely take the opportunity to break through.

Cao Ren thought of this festival, so he asked the scouts to roam outside the Yangzhou army camp and observe the movements of the Yangzhou army at any time. Then he personally raised the army and rushed to the road where Xu Sheng was most likely to break through, and waited for Xu Sheng here.

Sure enough, the scout came to report that there was an abnormal movement in the Yangzhou army. Cao Ren suddenly made up his mind that as long as Xu Sheng didn't go, as soon as he left, he would definitely take this road.

Xu Sheng only felt that this year was really unfavorable. Otherwise, why does this Cao Ren linger, where is he everywhere? This will Xu Sheng also aroused blood, and said in his heart, by this time, it is impossible for you Cao Ren to bring the stone machine over, right? Then let me weigh and weigh, the weight of you, the general surnamed Cao.

When Xu Sheng saw Cao Ren asking, he suddenly laughed and said, "Naigong is not going anywhere, Cao Ren, take your life!" After that, he took off the big yellow bow from behind him, and set it on fire, aiming it at Cao Ren, which was an arrow.

Cao Ren caught Xu Sheng here, and he was so happy in his heart. Suddenly, in the firelight, a little cold light from small to large, whistling, Cao Ren couldn't help but be in a hurry, hurriedly turned his body away, lowered his head, and the arrow was sudden, hitting Cao Ren's pocket, and the pocket was forced, and it flew to the ground. Cao Ren was so frightened that a layer of cold sweat exploded on his back, if he hadn't reacted quite quickly, this arrow, I was afraid that it would hit him in the face, and when the time came, he would still have his life?

Xu Sheng's brave arrow lifted the spirit of the Yangzhou army. Xu Sheng succeeded with an arrow, took advantage of the darkness, threw the bow, pulled out the knife, raised the knife and shouted: "Cao Ren is dead, kill the thief with me!" Then he put his legs in the belly of the horse, and rode forward.

The Yangzhou army didn't know where to go, so they shouted: "Cao Ren is dead, kill the thief with me!" ”

In the nine days of the sound, the Yangzhou army took the lead, followed Xu Sheng, and killed the Cao army with indomitable progress. Cao Jun can see clearly except for the vicinity of Cao Ren. I saw that the enemy will fire arrows, and then the master of his own house will dodge. Then the enemy army came and killed him, saying that his own general was dead?

Especially Cao Jun in the back, when he heard that his master was about to die, he couldn't help but be suspicious and afraid. Between these hesitations, the handle of the knife in his hand was undoubtedly not so tight.

The momentum of the Yangzhou army was like a rainbow, and as soon as it came into contact, it killed the Cao army in disarray. Cao Ren was so angry that after changing his pocket, he rode back and forth on horseback, shouting: "Don't fall for the tricks of thieves, work hard to kill the enemy, and kill those who retreat!" ”

Finally, my army realized that the main general was still there. But as soon as it was such a delay, Xu Sheng broke through Cao Ren's defense, patted his ass and ran away.

Xu Sheng is not stupid, he has no intention of fighting with Cao Ren here. The sneak attack just now didn't succeed, and then the frontal charge only had a slight advantage. Xu Sheng immediately reacted, and he couldn't fight with Cao Jun here. So when Cao's army was in turmoil, he ordered the whole army to retreat.

By the time Cao Jun reacted, the enemy had already disappeared into the night.

Cao Ren was so angry and funny, such a good opportunity, he actually let Xu Sheng run away like this? So he ordered to surround all the Yangzhou troops who had no time to escape, and those who did not surrender were immediately killed.

Cao Ren cleaned up the battlefield a little, and left a section to escort the prisoners, but he led the army to the previous place again, and there was also a Yangzhou army here.

Cao Ren led the army to the front of the camp, ordered someone to hold Xu Sheng's hood high, and shouted: "Xu Sheng escaped overnight, but he fell for my general's plan, and now he is dead!" Don't wait for the rappel yet! ”

As soon as the deputy general saw it, he knew that it was fake, Xu Sheng was really dead, why didn't he see the head, only a pocket? However, he knew that among the 2,000 people below, there were many people who didn't know.

Seeing Xu Sheng's banner and hood, many people's hearts were in turmoil. Originally, they were part of the abandonment, but now the Lord will abandon them, but they also suffered defeat halfway, how can this Cao army win the battle?

Others even whimpered and cried. They were homesick. Thinking of the warm sunshine of Yangzhou, the clear river water, and the beautiful little lady.

If you die here, will your bones still be able to return home? If this battle is over, will I still be able to see my parents alive?

When people's hearts are confused, it will be difficult for the team to lead. Not to mention that since ancient times, the army has paid special attention to discipline. When people have too many distractions, their minds are no longer focused on fighting. What other fighting power does this army have?

The adjutant general swore to the death and no one cared about him, but the army under his command was no longer combative. Cao Ren attacked this camp without much effort, and then counted the rebels, one by one, and killed all of them to count them as military merits. Others, he naturally laughed at it.

After Cao Ren defeated Xu Shengjun, he turned his head again and returned to Jingling. Next, he will continue to surround Jingling with Li Tong, and then sit back and wait for the news that Huarong has returned to his hands. He wanted to see, what did Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu plan to do next?

Xu Sheng ran all the way, and after dawn, he made sure that there was no Cao army around, and then set up a camp to collect the remnants of the defeated soldiers. After a few days, only more than 3,000 soldiers were recovered. He led 10,000 people to aid Huarong, left 2,000 soldiers to help defend Huarong, and brought 8,000 soldiers and horses back to rescue Jingling. As a result, he was chased by Cai Mao and surrounded by Cao Ren, and he lost more than half.

Xu Sheng couldn't help but sigh: "My fault, what face do you have to see Wen Jue?" ”

After resting, Xu Sheng didn't dare to stay longer, and after identifying the direction, he led the army all the way to Jingling. After entering the city, Pan Zhang greeted him and said in surprise: "Why is Wen Xiang like this?" ”

Xu Sheng told Pan Zhangyi about everything after his troops left Huarong, and then said: "Cao Ren, wisdom and bravery, he is really worthy of the number one general under Cao Cao." ”

Pan Zhang slammed his palm and scolded: "What kind of hero is he who is used to playing some intrigues and tricks!" ”

Then he said: "Don't worry about Wen Xiang, you and I will stick to this tomb, and see what benefits Cao Ren and Li Tong can get." If there are reinforcements from Gongjin, then teach those Cao thieves outside the city to look good. ”

The two entered the city together, and they didn't mention the defense together. Cao Ren came back to see Li Tong, and also talked about the old things, and said with a smile: "That Xu Sheng, he has some ability, it seems that there are still some characters in Jiangdong." ”

Li Tong said with a smile: "No matter how capable Xu Sheng is, isn't he also a defeated soldier under Zixiao?" ”

The two laughed together.
