Chapter 1053: Night Attack on the Black Nest

With a large axe in one hand, he rushed down the hillside with a quick pace.

Rushing to the mountain road, four or five Yuan Jun carried short contradictory cards and killed Xu Huang.

With a loud roar and a big axe, Xu Huang slashed an axe at the head of the first Yuan Jun.

The axe slashed towards the top of his head, and Yuan Jun hurriedly raised his shield to block, but the sharp axe was so heavy that it slashed into the shield and immediately split the shield in two.

The shield in the hands of the soldiers of the Yuan army was split by Xu Huang with an axe.

The arm holding the shield was cut by a sharp axe from the forearm, and half of the forearm fell to the ground.

The severed arm was gushing blood, and the soldiers of the Yuan army stared at Xu Huang in amazement as if they didn't feel the pain.

He was stunned, but the movements of Xu Huang's hands did not lag at all.

picked up the big axe, and before Yuan Jun, who had his arm cut off, was stunned, Xu Huang had already slashed an axe into his neck.

The axe slashed through the neck of the soldier of the Yuan army, and a head instantly separated from the neck and rolled to the ground.

A few Yuan soldiers in the back, seeing that Xu Huang was only two axes, chopped a companion to death, and although they were frightened in their hearts, they still shouted and pounced on Xu Huang.

Holding the handle of the axe tightly with both hands, Xu Huang swept the axe sideways towards the Yuan army.

The few Yuan soldiers holding shields were still two or three steps away from him, and before they could even pierce their short spears, they were swept to the ground by heavy axes.

Xu Huang rushed into the Yuan army, a big axe danced like a tiger and a tiger, and all the soldiers of the Yuan army who stood in front of him were all split into two pieces by the big axe.

A soldier of the Yuan Army, seeing Xu Huang's bravery, quietly stepped forward from behind, carrying a short spear, and was about to pierce Xu Huang.

Unexpectedly, Xu Huang had already known that he was sneaking up from behind, and at the moment when the Yuan soldier had just raised his short spear, he roared loudly and swept the big axe out behind him.

The sharp axe swept to the waist of the Yuan soldier, and the Yuan army, who wanted to sneak attack Xu Huang, didn't even have time to let out a miserable howl, and the whole person was cut off by the waist.

The upper half of his body separated from his hip bone and the lower half of his body and fell to the ground, until his upper body hit the ground and the two legs that were standing fell down.

From the cavity that had been cut, a lump of entrails poured outward.

The slimy entrails spread out on the ground, trampled by the people around them, and soon became one with the blood-stained dirt.

Shi Lian, who followed Xu Huang into the Yuan army, did not carry a long weapon at all because he didn't have to fight on a war horse.

Holding the long sword, Shi Jian rushed into the array of Yuan Jun, holding the long sword and shaking out shining sword flowers, picking and stabbing at Yuan Jun one by one.

The long sword is Shi Lian's most handy weapon, and almost every time he stabs a sword, there will be a Yuan Jun with blood gushing out of his chest or neck and falling on the battlefield.

The five hundred Cao Jun who followed Xu Huang and Shi Jian to kill also let out a shout at this time and collided with Yuan Jun.

The flames on the grain cart were blazing, and the soldiers on both sides of the battle flickered around the flames, and everyone could feel the heat of the flames.

The jumping flames reflected everyone's faces red, and the blood sprayed by the soldiers on both sides on the battlefield in the battle, this battle with not a lot of people actually seemed particularly tragic.

Han Meng, who was transporting grain and grass, was intercepted and killed by Xu Huang and Shi Jian on the middle of the road, while Cao Cao personally led 5,000 Cao troops, and when night quietly fell, he avoided the eyes of Yuan Jun, bypassed the Yuan army stationed in Guandu, and smashed straight into the black nest.

The 5,000 Cao army led by Cao Cao were all cavalry on war horses.

In order to prevent the war horses from neighing in the middle of the road, the soldiers of the Cao army chewed the horses and wrapped the horses' hooves in thick linen.

Leading 5,000 cavalry, accompanied by Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan, Cao Cao galloped all the way and approached the black nest.

The distance between Wuchao and Guandu is not very close, from the beginning of nightfall, Cao Cao and the others until it is close to the middle of the night, only to see a military camp in front of them that lights a brazier every other distance.

Seeing the braziers in the barracks, Cao Cao raised his arm and stopped the march of the team.

"This is the territory of Yuan Jun, and Yuan Shao's army may come at any time!" Stopping the team, Cao Cao said to Xiahoudun beside him: "Pass the order, the soldiers will enter the place where the Yuan army stores grain, and kill people secondly, mainly to ignite all the military grain." ”

"No!" Riding on horseback, Xiahou responded with a fist clenched, and whispered to the soldiers of the Cao army behind him: "Pass on the order of Cao Gong, kill into the Yuan army camp, kill people and second, and ignite the military rations is urgent!" ”

Because it was to attack the place where the Yuan army was storing grain, the soldiers of the Cao army passed the order, but they did not dare to make it loud, and the people in front whispered the orders they heard to the back, and it didn't take long for the five thousand Cao troops to get Cao Cao's orders.

"Untie the horse's hooves!" Raising his arm, Cao Cao commanded softly.

When he came to the black nest, he saw that he was about to rush into the place where Yuan Jun was storing grain, and if he tied sackcloth to the horse's hooves, once the fight started, the war horse would easily slip under his hooves and fall to the ground.

If you do, you will lose the upper hand in the fight.

Before the battle, it is more important to untie the horse's hooves first.

The five thousand Cao soldiers turned over and jumped off their horses, each untying sackcloth under the hooves of their crotch mounts.

When the sackcloth was removed, the soldiers got on their horses.

Everyone got back on the war horses, Cao Cao drew his long sword, pointed at the Wuchao Yuan army camp, and shouted softly: "Kill!" ”

With Cao Cao's order, five thousand cavalry of Cao's army urged their horses to rush towards the Yuan army camp that was hoarding military rations.

Five thousand fast horses galloped together, and the sound of the horses' hooves stepping on the ground was as deafening as a burst of rolling thunder.

Yuan Jun in the barracks heard the sound of horses' hooves outside, and hurriedly got on his horse to watch, only to see countless fires, just like the stars in the night, galloping and jumping.

The firelight was getting closer and closer, and when it was only twenty or thirty paces away from the barracks, balls of fireballs flew towards the barracks.

Yuan Jun, who was in charge of patrolling at night, already knew badly when he found the fireballs, but Cao Jun's speed of action was too fast, and he released a puff of rockets at them without waiting for them to react.

The flaming rockets flew into the barracks, and when they hit the tents on the roof, the barracks immediately burst into flames.

Cao Cao, who led 5,000 Cao troops to rush to the barracks, saw the flames of Yuan's army from a distance, but he knew in his heart that what they had set on fire was only a piece of camp tents, and they had not been implicated in the place where grain and grass were hoarded at all.

"Kill!" Holding a long sword, Cao steered his horse and rushed forward, and let out a loud cry from his mouth.

A raging fire broke out in the Yuan army's barracks, and many Yuan soldiers ran out of the camp in a panic.

The soldiers of the Yuan army, who were completely defenseless, many of them did not sleep in their armor, and when they heard the sound of horses' hooves and shouts of killing like thunder outside, they just wore the battle clothes inside, and they didn't even have time to put on the leather armor, so they rushed out of the tent.

Some of the soldiers of the Yuan army who rushed out of the tent dragged their weapons around, and many of them were completely confused, and when they ran out of the tent, they didn't even take their weapons and shields.

Pieces of rockets flew out of the longbows of Cao's cavalry and shot at the Yuan army, which was in chaos in the barracks.

Every time a rocket landed, a piece of Yuan Jun was shot by an arrow with flames and fell to the ground.

Some of the fallen Yuan soldiers did not die immediately, they wailed and struggled, trying to escape from the chaotic barracks with the strength they had left.

Some even grabbed the legs of their companions who ran past them, begging them to take them out.

The Cao army had already been killed, and the soldiers of the Yuan army had already been in a mess, and if they were not hit by arrows, where would they take care of those who were wounded, and they got rid of the wounded who fell to the ground and fled to the other side of the barracks.

A tent in the barracks was hit by several rockets, and the tent's curtain burned under the flames.

Just outside this tent, there were several corpses of Yuan Jun lying down, and one fell with the corpse, and one was hit by an arrow in the chest, and the tip of the arrow was still burning with flames, but he was not a dead soldier of Yuan Jun.

The soldier wailed and rolled, and just as he was almost in despair, another Yuan soldier with a short spear ran towards him.

Perhaps it was the instinct to survive, Yuan Jun, who fell to the ground and wailed, grabbed Yuan Jun's ankle and ran towards him, and shouted miserably: "Big brother! Save me! ”

Cao Jun was already close at hand, and Yuan Jun, who was carrying a short spear, only thought about escaping, where would he have the leisure to save him.

He tugged his leg twice, but the soldier of Yuan Jun, who fell to the ground, grabbed his ankle tightly with both hands, and refused to let go of it.

Turning his head to look at the cavalry of the Cao Army, who had already entered the barracks, Yuan Jun, who was carrying a short spear, raised the short spear and stabbed it into the heart of the Yuan soldier who was holding his ankle.

The short spear pierced the heart of the fallen Yuan soldier, and was pierced by the sharp spear tip, and the hands that grabbed the ankles of Yuan Jun who held the spear were immediately released.

As soon as his ankle loosened, Yuan Jun, who was carrying a short spear, hurriedly turned around, turned around and wanted to run towards the field behind the barracks.

No sooner had he turned to his side, and before he could take a step, several flaming arrows flew towards him.

A puff of arrows all covered him, and Yuan Jun couldn't dodge, and was shot by a rocket, and fell down beside his companion who had just been stabbed to death.

The Yuan army's camp was in a mess, and only drank a jar of wine in the evening, and Chun Yuqiong, who was sleeping soundly in the handsome tent, heard the noise and immediately woke up.

It was too late to wear it, so Chun Yuqiong pressed the long sword in his hand and rushed out of the handsome tent.

What appeared in front of him was the military camp burning everywhere and the soldiers of the Yuan army running around.

"Chun Yuqiong, come to life!" The scene in front of him made Chun Yuqiong suddenly wake up halfway from his wine, and at the moment when he was about to call the soldiers to fight back, he heard a burst of shouts from the side.
