On the wall of Sishui Pass.
Governor Hua Xiong, Hu Zhen, Li Su, and Zhao Cen were observing the movements of Gongsun Zan's military camp on the top of the city.
I saw that Gongsun Zan's camp was loose and quiet, and it seemed that all the soldiers were asleep.
Governor Hua Xiong said excitedly to Hu Zhen and the other three.
"There is nothing to be afraid of Gongsun Zan. Just wait and see that Gongsun Zan's camp is loose and his guards are lax. At midnight, most of the enemy troops are asleep. This is a good opportunity for our army to defeat the enemy!"
"What the governor said is true. This Gongsun Zan is just a false name." Hu Zhen agreed from the side.
Zhao Cen also followed Hu Zhen's example in complimenting Hua Xiong.
Although Li Su's view of Gongsun Zan's military camp was loose, there was an air of chilling in the camp unintentionally. He wanted to speak out to remind him, but thinking of Zhao Cen's previous advice, Li Su chose to remain silent.
"Hu Zhen, I order you to immediately order five thousand elite cavalry and follow me out of the city to attack the camp!" Governor Hua Xiong immediately ordered, and then glanced at Li Su contemptuously.
"The last general takes orders!" Hu Zhen responded.
Half an hour later, Governor Hua Xiong, Hu Zhen and his party took advantage of the thick night to leave Sishui Pass.
I saw that the four hooves of the horse mounted by Hua Xiong's army were wrapped in linen, and the horse's muzzle was also muzzled to prevent Gongsun Zan's army from detecting it in advance.
At this time, the governor Hua Xiong was still imagining the scene of his bravery, leading five thousand elite cavalry alone to defeat Gongsun Zan, the vanguard of the coalition of princes, and becoming famous all over the world.
What followed was promotion of official positions and nobility, and endless wealth and splendor.
Little did he know that Gongsun Zan had been on guard. At this time, Gongsun Zan's intentionally loose camp plate was a poisonous dessert that attracted Hua Xiong. It seemed extremely delicious, but once eaten, it would kill people immediately.
...
"Report!" A messenger quickly came to report Gongsun Zan.
"The scouts from the front discovered that a large group of cavalry from Sishui Pass were coming out of the city towards the camp. Their number ranged from about five thousand."
"Okay, it seems that as Zhongde and Gongtai expected, the Sishui Pass guard general led his army to attack at night. Fortunately, our army was prepared, otherwise our army would be in danger!"
Gongsun Zan said happily to Cheng Yu and Chen Gong.
"Ming Gong, just let the enemy troops go deep and raise fire as a signal, so that the enemy troops can never come back." Cheng Yu remonstrated.
"What Zhongde said is the best policy!" Chen Gong echoed from the side.
"Come here, go immediately and inform Zilong and Shurui that the enemy has left Sishui Pass. Let them ambush carefully and use the fire as a signal to kill them out." Gongsun Zan immediately ordered.
Gongsun Zan was a little nervous at the moment, and his palms holding the 60-pound iron spear were slightly sweaty. This was his first battle after his rebirth, so he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
This night attack on Sishui Pass, I wonder if Hua Xiong came in person, because Gongsun Zan wanted to test his skills against him.
...
The two governors, Hua Xiong and Hu Zhen, led five thousand elite cavalry and lightly armed soldiers to attack quickly, taking advantage of the darkness to approach Gongsun Zan's military camp.
Seeing that Gongsun Zan's camp was quiet, Hua Xiong thought that they had not discovered their whereabouts, so he immediately ordered.
"After a while, follow me into the enemy camp and go straight to the tent of Gongsun Zan's army. Anyone who captures Gongsun Zan's head will be rewarded with ten thousand gold. I will personally report to the Prime Minister to ask for his merit!"
Hu Zhen and a group of soldiers immediately followed Hua Xiong and rushed to the camp, eager to cut off Gongsun Zan's head as a reward.
Hua Xiong led five thousand elite cavalry like fire across the hills and rushed into Gongsun Zan's camp like an unstoppable force. He killed everyone he saw along the way, as if he was entering an uninhabited country.
At this moment, Hua Xiong didn't notice anything was wrong with the situation. He thought that Gongsun Zan's soldiers were too asleep, so he just charged all the way without detecting that most of Gongsun Zan's military camps were filled with scarecrows.
In an instant, Hua Xiong saw the big flag with the word Gongsun standing next to the Chinese army's tent, and immediately roared excitedly.
"Sirs, ahead is the camp of the traitor Gongsun Zan. Follow me to charge and take down Gongsun Zan's head!"
Immediately, Hua Xiong led his army straight towards Gongsun Zan's camp, accompanied by murderous cries rising to the sky.
Hua Xiong rushed into the camp and found that there was no Gongsun Zan inside, and only a scarecrow was placed in the camp.
At this time, Hua Xiong felt something bad, and then thought that he had not encountered many soldiers from Gongsun Zan's army when he rushed in.
"Oops, there's an ambush!" Hua Xiong shouted anxiously.
"Retreat, retreat quickly." Hua Xiong just exited the camp, and then a rocket pierced the night sky and lit up the Chinese army's tent.
"Fire the arrow!" Gongsun Zan ordered.
In an instant, the entire night sky was filled with arrows, and the five thousand elite cavalry were like moving targets. Screams came one after another, people fell on their backs, and countless people fell to the ground.
After the rain of arrows, Gongsun Yue led his troops to fight out from the right side of the camp. When Zhao Yun saw the fire in the Chinese army's tent, he also led his soldiers to fight out from the left side of the camp.
The five thousand elite cavalry brought by Hua Xiong formed a chaotic mass in the ambush, and were instantly broken up by Zhao Yun and Gongsun Yue.
Seeing that the situation was critical, Hua Xiong hurriedly turned his horse's head and shouted for retreat. When Gongsun Zan saw that the leader of the enemy army wanted to run away, he picked up the double-headed iron spear and rode towards him.
Hua Xiong was about to break out of the encirclement, but Gongsun Zan, who was killed, blocked his way with a spear. Without saying a word, he raised his long sword and started fighting.
The two fought fiercely for twenty rounds, and Gongsun Zan was secretly frightened, thinking that he was so powerful and skilled in bow and horse that he could not fall behind even if he fought with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei for fifty rounds.
An ordinary military general is not his enemy in countless battles, but this enemy general can defeat him in dozens of battles.
Hua Xiong also secretly thought that there was such a figure in the coalition forces. He, Hua Xiong, was the most powerful general in Xiliang. He was brave enough that no one could match him. Except for Lu Bu's abnormal force, he was confident that he would be brave and brave.
Already surrounded by Gongsun Zan's army, Hua Xiongxiong thought that he might not be able to return to Sishui Pass, so he stood up and fought hard. He was anxious.
"The enemy army is strong, Commander, hurry up!" Hu Zhen saw Hua Xiong fighting fiercely, raising his horse and drawing his spear to deflect Gongsun Zan's iron spear.
"Thief general, don't hurt my lord!" Zhao Yun saw another enemy general approaching Gongsun Zan, so he stepped forward with his gun in hand and shouted.
Before Hu Zhen could dodge, Zhao Yun shot him through the throat.
Upon seeing this, Hua Xiong immediately drew his knife and left the battle circle, and then summoned the surrounding elite cavalry to break out of the encirclement at the weak point.
"Follow me and break out to the death!"
