Night, dark and dreary.

The wind, cold and mournful.

With an extraordinarily distant horn sounded, the sound of shouting and rumbling horses' hooves suddenly stopped, the four fields suddenly penetrated an eerie silence, the expected enemy cavalry shocking waves of impact did not come, they came like a tidal wave, but like air dissipated into nothing.

Under the cold moonlight, all the Han soldiers were staring at each other, facing the empty wilderness and not knowing what to do.

Xiahou Dun gripped his steel spear in his hand and said in a gruff voice, "What tricks are the eight hundred stragglers playing?"

Cao Cao's small eyes swept through a cold cold aura and said in a deep voice: "This is obviously to tire our soldiers, it is a plan to disturb the enemy! We can divide the whole army into two teams, one team will be on guard, and the other team will rest in the formation without unloading their armor and clothes, as long as the formation is not disrupted and the enemy cavalry is not given an opportunity to take advantage of it, it is not known who will die."

Xiahou Dun replied in a loud voice: "Yes, I will go and make arrangements."

Cao Cao turned down his horse and sat down with Chen Gong and Cheng Yu, while Cao Ren, who was accompanying his escort, took off his cloak and put it over Cao Cao's body. Cao Cao was not polite, wrapped the cloak around his body, changed to a more comfortable sitting posture, and said to Cheng Yu and Chen Gong, "The darkness is not good for marching, let's wait until the daybreak to make plans."

Cheng Yu and Chen Gong said, "My lord is wise."

Cao Cao said, "The only people I am worried about are Miao Cai and Le Jin, I wonder how they are doing now?"

Cheng Yu thought about it and replied, "Lord, don't worry, Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin are both wise and brave. The bandits are no match for the bandits, at this time I am afraid to have killed the bandits to come to the rendezvous on the way."

Chen Gong said, "There is another possibility."

Cheng Yu's expression moved, moved to say: "Gongtai mean what he said. Xiahou, Le Jin two generals may return to the division to retake the Chang She?"

Chen Gong said, "Exactly."

Cao Cao was also moved and said, "If we can recapture Changshe and retrieve the grain and provisions, our army will be free of worries."

Chen Gong said, "Just in case, we should send someone to Liu Yanzhou to ask for help."

Cao Ren volunteered, "My lord, the last general is willing to go."

Cao Cao thought for a moment and nodded, "Zi Xiao can lead our elite troops to break out to the west first, then turn north to Chenliu."

Cheng Yu said, "My lord can send a small group of elite troops out to harass the enemy and confuse the public, and when the 800 stragglers are not ready, General Zi Xiao can lead the elite troops to the west to break through. It will be successful."

Cao Cao nodded and said in a deep voice, "Zhong De's words are very good, where is Li Dian?"

......

Ma Yue rolled off his horse and sat on top of the grass, stretching his legs as straight as possible to relieve the extreme fatigue brought by the whole day's gallop, people are flesh and blood after all, not King Kong! Cao Cao's Han army would be fatigued, and Ma Yue's eight hundred stragglers would also feel tired.

"Zhou Cang."

Zhou Cang hurried up two steps and stood in front of Ma Yue. In a deep voice, he said, "The last general is here."

Ma Yue said, "Immediately send an order to the whole army to rest without unloading armor and saddle, so that when the day dawns, we can take care of Cao Cao's Han army again."

"Yes, sir."

Zhou Cang roared, led the order and went.

Pei Yuan Shao on the side came up. He asked, "Bo Qi, why don't you crush the Han army in one go? Although our army is also exhausted, but the Han army is even worse, this is a good opportunity to break the enemy ah."

Ma Yue's heart was cold, Pei Yuan Shao thought too simply, three to four thousand elite Han army shrunk into a ball, like a hedgehog covered with prickly needles, even if the 800 stragglers are as fast as a lion, it is difficult to swallow them in one bite. What's more, only dozens of heavily armored iron cavalry after a long run. If you take the light cavalry to shake the enemy formation, even if you can defeat the Han army, the 800 stragglers will not have much riding left!

Ma Yue is not Emperor Han Lingdi, who has endless chips to gamble with and can afford to consume, while Ma Yue only has 800 stragglers, he can't afford to consume.

The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers. Then he squeezed out a smile on his face and explained to Pei Yuan Shao: "Chief Pei. If we delay for some more hours, Cao's army will be hungry and tired without food, and then we can lead the army to attack them, and we can break them with our hands."

Pei Yuan Shao suddenly said, "That's how it is."

In the middle of saying that, deafening shouting and killing sound suddenly sounded in front of us. In the brightness of torches, a Han army rushed out from the formation and rolled towards the west aimlessly.

Ma Yue's eyebrows jumped lightly and his expression was cold, but Pei Yuan Shao jumped up in shock and said sternly, "Bo Qi, I will lead my men to destroy this group of Han army."

Guo Tu hurriedly stopped him and said, "Chief Pei can't, this is the Han army's harassment plan, they will soon return on their own, so don't bother."

"Huh? A harassment plan?"

Pei Yuan Shao heard the words of a stare, see Ma Yue did not order to attack the ground, so do not dare to act rashly, after a few moments, the Han army really as Guo Tu said they retreated back, Pei Yuan Shao can not help but admire the five bodies, to Guo Tu thumbs up said: "Mr. Guo Tu is really a brilliant plan."

"Uh, this~~"

Guo Tu looked at Ma Yue and looked embarrassed.

......

Chang She East Effect.

Under the cover of night, an army of more than a thousand men was quietly approaching. On the east gate tower, two large torches were stuck diagonally above the gate tower, illuminating the whole tower as bright as daylight. Under the firelight, a dozen yellow turban bandits are lazily sitting around together, chatting and relieving boredom, only two bandits are not brightly guarded behind the women's wall, blankly looking out at the dark wilderness outside the city.

Le Jin crawled forward a few steps with his elbow, came to Xiahou Yuan's side, and said in a gruff voice: "General, it seems that the thieves are very lax in their defense."

"Well." Xiahou Yuan nodded his head stolidly and said in a deep voice, "How could these fools think that we would dare to attack the city with a surprise attack? This battle will be won!"

......

In the city of Changshe, Bian Xi was having a feast in the camp, treating his soldiers. Xiahou Yuan was right. Bian Xi didn't expect the Han army, which had already been killed by the 800 stragglers, to dare to swindle the city, so only a small number of bandits were sent to guard the four gates, while the majority of the bandits gathered in the camp to drink and have fun.

Bu Xi's camp, gathered dozens of small and large leaders of thieves, Bu Xi raised the wine cup, said loudly: "Come, come, brothers and full drink this cup, it has been a long time this fast and painful, today must be drunk, hahaha ~

Almost all of the leaders of all sizes are distantly raise a glass, look happy, but there is a person with a worried face, actually disregard the occasion, disregard the atmosphere, long body and said aloud: "General. Now the situation is not yet determined, the battle situation is unknown, do not slacken the defense, give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of ah?"

When Bu Xi saw that he was disturbed, he was displeased and said: "I have already received a good report that the General's 800 invaders have won a great victory in Yinshui, and now Liao Hua and Sun Zhong each led 2,000 troops to intercept the Han army on the road. Do not say more. "

The little chief did not relent and said, "In that case, I asked myself to inspect the gates."

Bu Xi was furious and was about to get angry when he heard the sound of killing outside the east gate, like a landslide and a tsunami, the sound was terrifying, and within a few moments, a bandit soldier ran into the camp in a panic and said to Bian Xi: "General, something is wrong. The Han army pretended to be General Sun Zhong's defeated troops, and took advantage of the night to defraud the city, and have already entered the city."

"What did you say!?" Bian Xi was shocked and said, "How is this possible? The Han army was already defeated at Ying Shui, how can they come to Chang She to defraud the city?"

The thief soldier said, "It's true, General."

"How many Han soldiers are there?"

"There are 4,000 to 5,000 men!"

"What? Four or five thousand people!"

Bu Xi was so shocked that he lost his three souls and seven souls, the Yingchuan soldiers had more than 6,000 men, but Liao Hua and Sun Zhong took away 2,000 men each. There were only 2,000 bandits left in the city, how could they resist the attack of 4,000 to 5,000 elite Han soldiers? A group of leaders of all sizes were also frightened to look at each other, not knowing what to do.

Only the small leader who advised them just now roared, "The soldiers will stop the attack, the water will flood the earth, fear him!"

In a moment, the long and long sound of the trumpet sounded, and when the bandits heard the sound of the trumpet, they ran out of the camp in chaos. Most of the clothes are not neat, no piece of armor, many thieves soldiers can not even find their own weapons. With empty hands, they ran out to assemble.

......

"Kill!"

Xiahou Yuan shouted, single-rider burst in, long knife slashing, all the way to the vermin.

"Roar ~"

The first time I saw a man, I had to go to the hospital, I had to go to the hospital, I had to go to the hospital.

"The might of the great Han army, if you block it, you will die~~"

Witnessing such a brave general, the Han soldiers were greatly encouraged, because the fatigue brought by the whole day of killing and running was also swept away, they howled, like wild beasts pounced on the yellow turban bandits who had not yet recovered, the bandits were caught off guard, and in a moment the formation was in disarray, scattered and fled under the pursuit of the Han army.

At the rear of the bandits, Bian Xi, with his helmet tilted, wearing two pieces of light armor, and holding a broken sword, was shouting at the top of his voice: "No retreat, no retreat! Those who retreat from the battle will be killed without pardon~~"

But no one paid any attention to Bian Xi, and more bandits fled past him like frightened rabbits, ignoring the broken sword in his hand.

"Die!"

Xiahou Yuan finally arrived, slashed through the yamen and rode in.

A thunderous shout from Bian Xi's ears, Bian Xi could not turn around before he felt a cold neck, and then the whole person suddenly lightly flying up, suddenly, the whole world began to rotate, tumbling up, suffocating the dead silence, Bian Xi bizarrely saw another "self" still standing in the yamen, only a human head is missing from the neck The next moment, the endless darkness came, swallowing Bian Xi's last glimmer of consciousness mercilessly.

"Kill~~"

Xiahou Yuan raised his sword to the sky, looking up to the sky, and the Han army swarmed behind him like locusts.

"Release arrows!"

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~~"

Just when Xiahou Yuan thought that the big picture has been, a cold cry from the front leisurely sounded, and in a moment sharp arrows pierced the long sky whistling sound whistling. Swept through the cold night sky suddenly flying over the heads of the Han army, and then poured down like a storm, Xiahou Yuan's pupils suddenly shrunk. Surprisingly, they are archers!

Le Jin's eyes suddenly a blood red, again this bastard! This guy is turned into dust Le Jin will never forget! He and Li Dian brought 500 elite soldiers to attack the city, but 400 people were buried in this guy's hands!

"Oops, my eyes~"

"Uh-ah~"

"Ow~"

In the endless howls of misery, the brave Han soldiers fell down.

"Charge! Charge through~~ Kill all these damn rebels~~"

Xiahou Yuan shouted loudly and spurred his horse to advance. The only way to defeat the archers was to accelerate the charge of light infantry who lacked shields and heavy armor protection, as long as they crossed the belt of death. As long as they cross the belt of death and kill the archers, these damned rebels will be no different from sheep to be slaughtered.

"Abet~"

Sharp cracking sound, cold chill from the left front swept into the air, Xiahou Yuan gaze awe, instinctively raised his sword a block, only to hear the "clang" a sharp sound, the night sky suddenly splashed a dazzling sparks, a sharp wolf tooth arrow has been his knife to fly.

"Abet~~"

Xiahou Yuan could not celebrate, two more wolf tooth arrows lightning-like shot to. Xiahou Yuan could not really see in the darkness, can only smell the wind to distinguish the position. The sharp wolf tooth arrow has accurately shot through the chest cavity of Xiahou Yuan's crotch mount, deep and feather.

"whinny~~"

The crotch mount instantly stood up, issued a shocking hiss. Xiahou Yuan was lifted off the ground.

......

The first glimpse of dawn from the eastern sky broke through the sinking darkness stabbed into the long sky, ravaged the whole night endless darkness ton like a tidal wave receded, the sky ~ ~ finally light up.

The day dawned, to decide the fate of the moment also arrived.

The endless grass and dust flying in the sky, confused Ma Yue's vision, the wind up?

"Whoo~~"

The loud, majestic sound of the trumpet suddenly rose to the sky, resting for the whole night and just a full meal of the roving bandits quickly turned on their horses, the sound of neighing horses and people boiling, quickly formed a neat riding formation.

When the sunrise spurted out from behind the clouds, spilling the first rays of sunlight into the wilderness. The eight hundred stragglers had already finished forming up, only to see a vast expanse of black pressed iron cavalry on the endless wilderness, a cold wind blowing through the riding formation, swinging up the bunch of cherry red fringe, bleak as blood.

Han army formation, Cao Cao suddenly narrowed his eyes, as if by the piece of green gritty cold blanket stabbed eyes, endless slaughter breath is in front of the two armies diffuse, diffuse again ......

"Hululu~~"

The masculine ride under Ma Yue's crotch fiercely shook his head. The first time I saw it, I had to go to a place where I could see it. Ma Yue indifferently pulled out a gun. Tightly held in the right hand, the cold touch like spider silk instantly diffused throughout the body.

The cold morning breeze scraped by, swept up the blood-colored banner in Zhou Cang's hand, "eight hundred stragglers" four open and hideous words, as if four celestial soldiers, in the blood-colored banner surface running like flying.

"Drink~"

Ma Yue let out a light cry, the mount took a step forward, iron hoof trampled heavily on the cold grass, suddenly splashed a piece of broken grass, swirled away with the wind. The cold sound of hooves is like a rousing war drum knocking heavily on the heart of every bandit general, burning killing intent suddenly ignited.

"Throwing guns ready~~"

Ma Yue's cold roar suddenly shattered the silence of the cavalry formation, and a lance was raised high, the sharp trigeminal spear blade emitting dazzling cold flame against the rising sun, just like the vicious wolf's hideous sharp teeth.

"Protect the Lord~~"

In the formation of the Han army, Xiahou Dun sounded a clear and harsh roar, a group of heavily armored infantry quickly ran to the center of Cao Cao, Chen Gong, Cheng Yu three people began to form up, a heavy shield on the big shield, in a moment to form a solid shield wall, Cao Cao Cao three firmly in the center of the protection.

Cao Cao's expression was cold, gazing through the gap in the shield wall at the piece of iron armor not far in front of him, his narrow eyes showing inexplicably cold.

"If Ma Yue does not die, we will not be buried."

In front of the stragglers. Ma Yue slowly pull down the ghost face mask, when the hideous ghost face in the hood completely closed at that moment, clear cold harsh whistle suddenly resounded through the long air: "attack ~ ~"

"Yo-ho~"

"Ho-ha~"

"Ow~"

The continuous strange screams. The standing stragglers were like a flood that broke the dike, from quiet to moving, from slow to fast, and finally finished accelerating and started sprinting with full force, nearly a thousand stragglers gradually surged into a wave of shock, sweeping towards the dense Han army formation.

"Poof~servant~"

A Han soldier finally couldn't support himself and fainted with both eyes. Since the day before yesterday when Cao Cao waved his division to attack Changshe, for more than 20 hours, the Han army was constantly marching, fighting, and on guard, and their spirits were always on high alert. Now, finally, someone could not support himself anymore.

The fall of this soldier immediately caused a slight commotion in the Han army formation. In fact, the entire Han army was at the end of its rope. They had not had enough rest and had not eaten for a long time, they were already hungry and tired, and their physical strength was severely depleted.

However, even the most tenacious spirit has a breakdown, just as the sharpest steel sword can be melted by fire. If we can't eliminate the spiritual defeat of the soldiers in time. The Han army will eventually collapse.

"I am invincible, fight to the death and do not retreat ~~"

At the critical moment, Xiahou Dun's majestic figure appeared in time in front of the Han army formation, the steel gun in his hand stabbed straight into the air, actually regarded the sweeping to the bandits iron cavalry as nothing, suddenly between. The rumbling subway hooves sounded Xiahou Dun's majestic voice, full of disdain and indifference to the flowing invasion of iron cavalry.

"Fight to the death and do not retreat ~~"

Han soldiers shouted like a mountain, waving their weapons with fervor, and their spirit of death was endlessly aroused, and the fire of the dying spirit was once again ignited.

As expected of Cao Cao's army! Even as an enemy, Ma Yue couldn't help but admire, even if it was his 800 stragglers facing such a desperate situation, I'm afraid they wouldn't perform any stronger than Cao's army. Ma Yue inhaled a deep breath of cold air, and the idea of killing Cao Cao in his heart was especially fierce.

What was the reason for planning the battle of Ying Shui with all deliberations? It is not to kill Cao Cao and Liu Bei, the two unparalleled lords! Now Liu Bei jumped into the Ying Shui, his life and death is unknown. How can we let Cao Cao escape again?

"Ha!"

Behind Ma Yue, Zhou Cang gave a fierce beating to the wind with the blood-colored banner in his hand, and the shout like a landslide and a tsunami sounded behind him. The left and right flanks of the Han army were cut diagonally.

"Huh?"

In front of the Han army formation, Xiahou Dun was about to fight with his horse and gun. When he suddenly saw such a change in the thieves, he could not help but stop.

In the Han army formation, within the heavy shield wall, Cao Cao chagrin hands hit each other, language contains anxiety: "Damned Ma Yue, really deserves to be after the famous general, ah, how can the cavalry use so perfect, hey, but I hate my army lack of archers, otherwise, will not let the eight hundred stragglers so arrogant ~ ~"

Cheng Yu, Chen Gong both frowned lightly, helpless, human power is sometimes exhausted, when the battle enters the stage of head-on decisive killing without any tricks, even if the wisdom of the best strategist is also helpless.

"Abet abet abet~~"

The iron cavalry from the Han army line like a whirlwind cutting through, a sharp lance has swept into the air, the tragic blow suddenly fell on the Han army soldiers, continuous howling, the Han army left and right flank soldiers instantly fell a large swath. The 800 stragglers had inflicted heavy casualties on the Han army with just one charge.

The 800 stragglers swept in and whistled past, regrouping in formation a few hundred paces behind the Han army, ready to launch a second wave of charge.

"Hey!"

Xiahou Dun ruthlessly slammed his steel gun into his face, anger burning in his chest like poisonous grass, what the hell kind of battle is this? I was killed by a group of rebels without the ability to resist, but can only guard the original waiting to be slaughtered! Since the army, Xiahou Dun has never been such a loser.

......

The battle is still raging in Changshe.

"Damn~~"

Xiahou Yuan grunted, almost gritted steel teeth, another attack was dismantled by the tenacious bandits in front of him, and more than a hundred loyal home town sons and daughters fell in a pool of blood. This group of damned rebels. Like a steel nail deep into the stone, dead in the Han army forward on the necessary path, no matter how hard the Han army attack. Always stand firm.

From the second half of the night to dawn, the Han army paid hundreds of casualties, but still can not break the last line of defense of the rebel camp, 800 stragglers and Liao Hua, Sun Zhong and other people may reverse the attack at any time, leaving the Han army time is getting less and less, Xiahou Yuan can not help but get anxious.

"General, the rebels' arrows have almost been consumed, why don't you give it your best shot this time?" Le Jin took a step forward and proposed to Xiahou Yuan, "If we still can't break the defensive line of the rebels this time. Why don't you lead the army to withdraw?"

"Good!" Xiahou Yuan said morosely, "I will personally lead the attack this time."

Le Jin said sharply, "No, the general must not take the risk, the last general is willing to fight to the death to break the enemy."

"I have already decided, Wen Qian need not say more." Xiahou Yuan pulled out the long knife from the on to lead forward, sternly said, "Follow me ~"

The last line of defense for the Yellow Turban bandits, the small leader stood proudly in front of the formation, his expression cold.

"Finally can't resist to launch the last strike?" Witnessing the Han army dying in front of him, the little leader gave a muffled snort from his nostrils. Coldly, he said, "Spear soldiers line up~~"

A large group of thieves rushed out from behind the formation and formed a dense defensive formation in front of the young leader, hundreds of sharp spears quickly staggered into a daunting forest of death.

"Open!"

Xiahou Yuan was the first to rush to the front of the bandits, shouted a long knife chopped to the air, continuous sound of the interplay. A dozen sharp spears immediately swept away, the thieves' strict defense formation immediately revealed a gap.

"Kill!"

Le Jin shouted, led several brave soldiers to follow the gap split by Xiahou Yuan, cold light flashed, a thief soldier has been cut into two pieces by Le Jin's knife, and two other thief soldiers were followed by Le Jin to kill the brave soldiers stabbed to death. Under the attack of Xiahou Yuan, Le Jin and the Han soldiers, the gap in the defensive formation of the bandits quickly collapsed and expanded.

In the rear line of the bandits, a cold aura swept through the small leader's eyes and said sternly, "Fire oil is waiting~~"

In a flash, a jar of kerosene flew out from the bandits' formation. Throw into the swarming Han army formation, tile cans hit the Han army have broken open, cans of kerosene instantly poured many Han soldiers full of head and face, there are many tile cans thrown far enough, smashed into the thieves spear formation splash cracked.

When the wisp of weirdly thick fragrance diffused into Le Jin nose, the tyrannical killing machine ton like a tidal wave receded, replaced by an inexplicable cold. Fire oil! Fucking kerosene! So vicious traitor! Le Jin heart and soul trembling, suddenly harsh long howl up: "Retreat! Quickly retreat ~ ~"

However, it was already too late!

"Abet, abet, abet..."

Dozens of rockets flew up in the air. In the air, they crossed a low and feeble parabola and fell towards the Han army. Le Jin's heart was chilled and his soul was scared, and he watched as the rockets broke through the cold void and fell little by little, the battle group seemed to have come to a standstill, and Le Jin could no longer hear any sound, his world only had the rockets falling gradually.

The rockets finally fell unstoppably, the flames on the arrows suddenly ignited the fire oil sprayed on the faces and bodies of the Han soldiers. The sky suddenly brightened up strangely, dozens of fires sprang up, the fire quickly spread, and in a moment, the entire battlefield burned into a sea of fire.

Mournful howl of misery rose up, relentless fire instantly engulfed the loyal and brave soldiers.

Although Xiahou Yuan was not doused with kerosene, but also by the diffuse fire burned on the body of the robe, but he was like a stupid general, the body was burning robe moxibustion hot but ignorant, his cold stern eyes, only that a burning fire, countless loyal home sons and daughters are howling in the fire, struggling ~ ~

......

"Report~~"

The mournful shout accompanied by the rapid sound of horse hooves, Ma Yue leisurely look back, only to see a ride like the wind, is galloping, it is precisely Ma Yue before the war sent out the roving scout horse. No matter what time, Ma Yue will never forget to send out scout horses to scout the surrounding environment, because he is a roving bandit, in the land of the great Han, surrounded by enemies everywhere, any negligence may lead to irreparable disaster.

"Chief, a large group of Han cavalry was found 20 miles to the north!"

Ma Yue's eyes suddenly shrank and he asked with awe, "A large group of Han cavalry! How many horses and men are there?"

"There are more than 3,000 horsemen!"

"More than 3,000 horsemen?"

Ma Yue looked back at the collapsing Han army and sighed in his heart. If he had been given half an hour more, he would have been able to break the Han army and kill Cao Cao, but unfortunately, God would never give him that chance! If he could not retreat in time, once he was entangled by the 3,000-strong Han army, the 800-strong bandits would only be wiped out.

Ma Yue no longer hesitate, immediately decided: "pass the order ~ ~ the whole army retreat, immediately withdraw to the Chang She!"

"Horn woo-woo~~"

The sound of the trumpet sounded somberly, and the eight hundred stragglers quickly turned their horses around and rolled away to the south, disappearing in a moment on the horizon of the vast land.

Cao Cao watched in disbelief as the 800 stragglers rolled away, and only after a long time did he come back to his senses, looking around and saying, "What is going on here?"

Chen Gong frowned and said, "Could it be that the 800 stragglers are a scheme to lure the enemy?"

Cheng Yu shook his head and said, "Not quite like that."

In the middle of the astonishment, Xiahou Dun suddenly changed his face and pointed his finger to the north and said in a condensed voice: "Lord, what is that?"

Cao Cao and the others turned around and looked to the north, only to see a faint black line creeping slowly on the horizon of the pale land.
