Chapter 355: Kill the Enemy
Chapter 355: Killing the Enemy
"What? Gongsun Chan suddenly sent troops to attack us? Chu He looked at Xun Yu and was surprised.
Although he had long thought that there would be such a day, he did not expect that this day would be so early.
Gongsun Zhan is also a prince, a dragon among the people, this time he sent troops to calm the war outside the pass, and it is normal for his confidence to swell, but he knows the strength of Chu River and Jizhou best, and Weishenme will choose to attack when Chu River returns?
"Is this going to be like a challenge for me?"
Chu He thought in his heart, but he looked at Xun Yu and asked, "Do you know that he sent troops?" ”
"I don't know yet, the cities near the other princes have also sent messengers to let them strengthen their defenses this morning, and so far, I haven't heard any news that Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo have sent troops!" Xun Yu looked at Chu He and said.
Then the two of them were not verbose, Xun Yu took out a local strategic map from his arms, pointed to a few points and said to Chu He: "Zilong has been sent here, here are Xu Chu, Li Dao and Tian Feng!" At this point, you must have arrived at the target location! ”
"Good! Now prepare the horse, this king is going to Zhongshan to see! Chu He nodded slightly.
In fact, the military report had been sent to Changshan last night, Xun Yu discussed with the generals, and felt that Chu He should be given some time, so Zhao Yun issued an order, led the army to set off first, and after dawn, he went to inform Chu He.
After that, the two walked out quickly, and Sun Lin wanted to say something, but she closed her mouth.
Just as Chu He had just walked out of the mansion, Liu Bei and Lu Zhi stepped forward, clasped their hands and said to Chu He: "Lord, take us with you!" ”
The affairs of the alliance were carried out by Lu Zhi and Guo Jia, and after only a few months, Gongsun Chan began to turn against him, and the reason for this was not clear to the two.
"That's it! Follow me! Chu He looked at the anxious looks of the two, knowing that it would not work to not let the two go this time, so after thinking for a moment, he agreed to the request of the two.
Not long after, a team of men and horses, led by Chu He, left the north gate of Changshan City and galloped towards Zhongshan Country in the distance.
“”
At ten o'clock at noon, Chu He took Xun Yu and others to the forefront of the war - Anxi!
Zhao Yun with 30,000 troops stationed outside Anxi City, after Gongsun Chan occupied Zhongshan City last night, he began to send troops around, Anxi was the most fierce battle, and it was Anxi's loyalty to the guards that allowed Zhao Yun to lead the troops to arrive.
When Zhao Yun was rescued and rested in peace, the rest city was already full of holes, so Zhao Yun simply stationed the camp outside the city.
Together with Zhao Yun, there are also more than 6,300 foot soldiers of Huo Yingda, who were recruited by the ability to be sent to Changshan for training, but it happened that because of this war, they were directly applied to the battlefield.
"Lord!"
After Zhao Yun welcomed Chu He into the camp, he directly entered the handsome camp, looked at Chu He and said, "Lord, this is Huo Yingda, the general of Anxi, tell me about the situation!" ”
After the introduction, Huo Yingda frowned and stood up, the blood on his face had not been completely wiped off at the moment, and he said with a touch of worry in his eyes: "Lord, generals!" I am Anxi's guard general Huo Yingda, in the early morning of last night, our army received the news of the fall of Zhongshan City, and began to arrange the city defense, the enemy army came a total of more than 10,000 people, launched a strong attack from the north, our army defended the city with more than 15,000 soldiers, this battle was originally extremely good, but the enemy army ......"
Listening to Huo Yingda's story, Chu He's heart couldn't help but hang, but he didn't expect Gongsun Zhan's soldiers to be so powerful.
The enemy's 10,000 soldiers first smashed the city walls and gates with catapults, and then began to attack, cutting down nearly 10,000 of Huo Yingda's soldiers.
"Lord, it's not that the last general is incompetent, but that the enemy army is too brave, our soldiers cut them, and they can still carry and kill several people in our army, I really can't imagine that since some enemy soldiers have their heads cut off, they can still give a strange ......" This is what Huo Yingda wants to say.
This incident is so bizarre that it stands to reason that a person's head is dead if it falls off, and there is no reason to live.
The brain is the total control of the human body, and if the head falls, it will not be able to control the body, but the enemy's body still wields a knife and kills Huo Yingda's soldiers, although the enemy can kill one person and then die, but it greatly makes Huo Yingda's military spirit completely dissipated.
Fortunately, Zhao Yun's army had just arrived, and under the cover all the way, he killed 3,000 enemy soldiers and escaped more than 1,000 soldiers.
"Huh? Have you ever kept the corpses of the enemy? Chu He was puzzled, looked at Huo Yingda and asked.
Huo Yingda nodded, clapped his hands, and the military doctor, who had been waiting outside for a long time, took a few soldiers and carried up a headless corpse.
The corpse had been dead all night, but it was still moist and like a living person, and no one would think that he was a corpse if he did not know that he had no head.
"What did you find?" Chu He looked at the military doctor and asked.
The military doctor clasped his hands and said, "My lord, we have experienced more than a dozen enemy corpses, and most of them are like this!" They are already dead, and what is really different is that the body has not failed because of death, and still retains a part of the body's functions? ”
"Huh? How so? Do you think they have been tricked into people, or have they been witchcrafted? Chu He looked at the enemy's chest opened by the military doctor's forceps, and couldn't help but feel a burst of vomiting, and hurriedly covered his mouth and asked.
The military doctor shook his head and said: "Lord, according to what his subordinates have seen, the enemy has been cut off by the head, and they can still raise their hands to kill, it must be the natural reaction of the body, after some ordinary prisoners are beheaded, they can still walk a few meters before dying, this and that are the same phenomenon, they are deep in the killing array, only thinking about killing the enemy, when we cut off their heads, the order of their bodies has just been conveyed, so the body will still cut this knife according to inertia!" "Then will our soldiers, after being beheaded, be able to act like the enemy?" Although Chu He's words are a bit hurtful, they are also a core issue.
The military doctor shook his head and didn't know, but Huo Yingda next to him shook his head in denial.
Obviously, only after the death of the Youzhou soldiers, there was such a strong reaction, what is the problem?
Chu He's heart was surrounded by such a question, and just as everyone was thinking about it, the sound of drums outside suddenly sounded.
"Let's go! Let's see who's going to call the battle! Chu He glanced around at everyone around him, knowing that if he always paid attention to such a problem, the morale of the soldiers would die sooner or later, so it was better to fight quickly and see what Gongsun Zhan's purpose was.
