There was a burst of cheers in her ears, and Chun Yuqiong hurriedly turned her head to look in the direction where the sound came from.

He saw a fast horse, like a bolt of lightning, rushing towards him.

The one-eyed general sitting on horseback, with a halberd in both hands, rushed to Chun Yuqiong's approach, and before he could react, it was already a halberd that pierced his heart.

Poor Chun Yuqiong, who was also one of the eight captains of the West Park in his early years, was under the halberd of Xiahoudun, but he didn't have the slightest power to fight back, so he was pierced through the heart, and the whole person was provoked.

Holding the handle of the halberd tightly with both hands, Xiahou pierced Chun Yuqiong's heart with a halberd, and picked it up hard, picking him up all over.

has already been picked to death by Xiahou Xuan's halberd, and Chun Yuqiong's body hangs on the halberd, like a rag bag, hanging weakly.

"Chun Yuqiong is dead!" Picking up Chun Yuqiong's corpse, Xiahoudun yelled.

Hearing that Yu Qiong was dead, the soldiers of the Yuan army, who were already in a mess, were like headless flies, scurrying around.

The cavalry of the Cao army, who rode a war horse and rushed into the camp of the Yuan army, found the location of the grain store, and threw the lit torches onto the granary made of straw.

The flames **** the granary, and soon the Yuan Jun barracks were full of fires.

Leading the cavalry of the Cao army, he was chasing and killing the enemy army in the Yuan army camp to expand the results of the battle, and Cao Cao heard a soldier behind him shouting to him: "Cao Gong! There is a Yuan army to come to the rescue! ”

Yuan Shao originally only ordered Han Meng to lead 3,000 people to strengthen the defense of Wuchao after escorting the grain and grass, but Han Meng was intercepted and killed by Xu Huang and Shi Lian in the middle of the road.

originally planned to send troops to exterminate Xu Huang and Shi Lian, but Feng Ji and others proposed to Yuan Shao that this might be Cao Jun's plan to attack the east and west.

Suddenly, Yuan Shaocai hurriedly ordered to send a team of 20,000 soldiers and horses to come to the aid of Wuchao.

The speed of Yuan Jun's action is not fast, but compared with Cao Jun, it is half a beat slower after all.

Before the 20,000 Yuan troops arrived at the Wuchao, they saw the sky-high flames rising from the direction of the Wuchao from a distance.

The general who led this Yuan army saw that there was a fire in the direction of Wuchao, and he knew that it was not good, so he hurriedly shouted to the army behind him: "Move quickly!" ”

The 20,000 Yuan troops who rushed to the aid of Wuchao, after the general's order, hurriedly accelerated the pace of their feet.

At the same time, Cao Cao, who had already led 5,000 soldiers and horses into the Yuan army camp, was directing the soldiers to burn grain and grass and kill the Yuan army that was scattered and fleeing in the barracks.

The soldiers who reported to Cao Cao that the Yuan army was coming, seeing that he was indifferent, still commanded the soldiers to kill the Yuan army in the barracks, and shouted again: "Cao Gong, the Yuan army has more than 20,000 people!" ”

"How far is it?" Glancing at the burning granary, Cao Cao shouted to the soldier.

"More than two hundred steps!" When Cao Cao was answered, the soldiers were already a little panicked.

20,000 Yuan troops rushed towards them, and once they were surrounded by enemy troops, the 5,000 cavalry led by Cao Cao was powerless to resist.

"It's fifty steps and it's called so-and-so!" Cao Cao shouted to the soldier, then pointed his sword at the already burning granary and shouted, "Set fire!" Set! Don't give Yuan Jun a chance to extinguish the fire! ”

The flames had already burst into the air, and even if Yuan Jun came to extinguish them at this time, he would not be able to save the grain and grass that was swallowed by the flames.

But Cao Cao was still a little uneasy, after all, Yuan Jun's grain and grass had not all been burned to ashes, even if he could only save a part, it would be enough for Yuan Jun to support him for several days.

Stationed on the horse and watching the soldiers of the Cao army throwing torches to the barn, Cao Cao heard the shouts of the soldiers behind him: "Gong Cao, the Yuan army is only fifty steps away from here!" ”

"Thirty steps to call so!" Cao Cao didn't even look back, and shouted to the soldier again.

As soon as his shout fell, the soldier then shouted, "Yuan's army is only thirty paces away!" ”

When the soldiers shouted this, Cao Cao could clearly hear the heavy footsteps of the 20,000 Yuan troops running.

"Ten steps to call so-and-so!" Cao Cao still didn't move, and shouted to the soldier again.

"Cao Gong, Yuan Jun has arrived!" This time, Cao Cao's shout had just fallen, and the soldier was already distraught and shouted to him: "It's already behind me!" ”

"Let's go!" Yuan Jun behind him had already seen Cao Cao, and there was a burst of shouting and killing, Cao Cao also waved his hand, didn't even turn his head, and rushed out towards the other side of the barracks.

Five thousand Cao troops set fire to all the military rations hoarded by Yuan's army, and when Cao Cao ordered the withdrawal, they followed him and rushed towards the outside of the military camp like a torrent.

When retreating, the torrent of Cao's cavalry collided with Yuan's army who came to help.

The soldiers of the Cao army, who were galloping on horseback, carried short spears in their hands, and retreated behind Cao Cao, while assassinating the soldiers of the Yuan army who collided with them.

Seeing that Cao Cao was about to be captured, the soldiers of the Yuan army refused to let him go lightly, but also held their weapons tightly and struggled to chase after Cao Cao.

With the rapid advance of the Yuan army, most of the Cao army rushed out of the encirclement on war horses, and a small number of Cao cavalry were poked by the Yuan army around them with their short spears and fell from their horses.

Leading the cavalry of the Cao army who had just set fire, Cao Cao did not look back, rushed out of the barracks all the way, and ran straight in the direction of Guandu.

"Fight the fire!" Cao Cao led 5,000 cavalry to take advantage of the night to go farther and farther, and led 20,000 troops to gallop to the general who came to the aid of Wuchao, pulled his war horse, and shouted to the soldiers who were about to pursue.

The 20,000 Yuan troops stopped the pursuit and hurriedly turned back to the grain storage to put out the fire.

The fire burned brightly, almost half of the night sky reddened.

The soldiers of the Yuan army took off their armor and beat the fire with their clothes, although 20,000 people put out the fire together, but the fire showed no signs of being extinguished.

The fire was "whirring" and jumping, and the blazing air flow poured on the soldiers of Yuan Jun who were fighting the fire, and the skin of many people was blistered by the high temperature.

Without food and grass, the army will be hungry, and all the soldiers of the Yuan army present know this truth.

The clothes that were wielding the flames had been burned, and the action of the soldiers of the Yuan army had instead promoted the flames to become more vigorous.

The rising flames became more and more vigorous, and the more than 20,000 soldiers of the Yuan Army who were fighting the fire gradually stopped their movements, and retreated one by one, helplessly looking at the fire that reflected the night sky red.

The general of the Yuan army, who led this Yuan army to the black nest, looked up at the flames rushing into the air, his mouth was slightly open, and his face was helpless and resentful.

Wuchao hoarded all the grain and grass of the Yuan army, and the grain and grass were burned, even if Yuan Shao ordered an urgent transfer from the rear, hundreds of thousands of Yuan troops would be hungry for a long time.

The grain and grass hoarded in Wuchao was burned by Cao Jun, and the news soon reached Yuan Shao's ears.

Earlier, he thought that Wuchao was in the rear of the army, and it was impossible for Cao Jun to go around it quietly, but just when he decided to strengthen the defense of Wuchao, all the grain and grass would be burned by Cao Cao.

Sitting on the straw mat at his feet, Yuan Shao's mouth was slightly open, and his face was stunned.

The soldiers who reported to him clasped their fists and bowed to face him, and when they saw that he looked bad, they didn't even dare to say more than half a sentence.

After a long time, Yuan Shao waved his hand at the soldier.

At the moment when he waved his hand, the soldiers felt that Yuan Shao had suddenly aged a lot.

When Yuan Shao received the news that Wuchao's grain and grass had been burned, Cao Cao had already returned to the garrison with 5,000 cavalry.

After a raid and fighting, the loss of 5,000 cavalry was no more than 100.

Entering the gate of the high wall, Cao Cao saw at a glance that the generals and staff under his command were still waiting at the station.

Seeing that Cao Cao's army turned back, the staff and strategists stepped forward one after another, and Guo Jia even walked to Cao Cao's horse and personally helped him hold the war horse.

Turning over and getting off the horse, Cao Cao first arched his fists towards Guo Jia, who was leading the horse for him, and then bowed his hand to the people who greeted him and said, "Thank you for coming to greet you!" ”

"Cao Gong!" Everyone clasped their fists and bowed to Cao Cao, and Guo Jia asked him: "I don't know how the battle is going to Cao Gong this time to go to Wuchao?" ”

"Burn it!" With a smile on his face, Cao Cao said to Guo Jia: "Then Yuan Shao is afraid that he will not be able to last for two days!" ”

"Congratulations to Cao Gong on his victory!" As soon as Cao Cao's words fell, everyone bowed down at the same time with their fists and congratulated him.

"Haha!" Before the crowd's congratulatory voices fell, an arrogant laugh rang out from the crowd.

Hearing the laughter, everyone present frowned and looked at the person who was laughing.

It was none other than Xu You, who had come to Cao Cao earlier to offer him a plan to burn the black nest.

Everyone frowned, and their faces showed dissatisfaction, but Cao Cao's expression did not change at all, and he said to Xu You: "If there is no son, there will be no victory today!" ”

Hearing Cao Cao's praise, Xu You did not have the slightest modesty, but just hugged his fists and said to Cao Cao: "A certain vote for Cao Gong, within ten months, will definitely help Cao Gong break that Yuan Shao." Cao Gong now has a certain help, why worry about the hegemony? ”

Xu You's words were very arrogant, and the generals and staff under Cao Cao all showed dissatisfied looks on their faces.

Compared with everyone, Cao Cao did not show the slightest displeasure, but nodded to Xu You and said, "There is Lao Ziyuan!" ”

Cao Cao did not show dissatisfaction, Xu You was even more proud, hugged his fists and bowed to Cao Cao, and then glanced at everyone beside him with a smug look.

The news that Cao Cao led his army to break through Wuchao and burned Yuan Shao's army rations soon spread to Luoyang.

Knowing that Yuan Shao's military rations were burned to the ground, Liu Wei was speechless for a long time.

He knew very well that the burning of the black nest indicated that the battle of Guandu had entered the stage of Cao Cao's counteroffensive.

At the beginning of the war, Liu Wei also made some efforts, hoping that the outcome of the war would be changed because of the participation of the Qin army.

But the efforts of the Qin army played a very small role in the entire war.

The army led by Wei Yan fought continuously for many days, but it did not even break through the line of Xuanyuan Pass and Songshan.
