Xiahou Dun: "General, don't worry, this battle will be won!"
"If I, Xiahou Dun, make any mistakes, you will take my dog's head."
"I, Xiahou Dun, will never give up."
It can only be said that he is worthy of being the ruthless person who ate his own eyeballs alive in the novel, and he can also fight Guan Yu for more than 80 rounds without deciding the winner. With such a ruthless man, it's no wonder that he could follow Cao Cao to conquer the east and west, and finally pacify the north.
It laid a solid foundation for the final Wei Dynasty to pacify the world, but it was a pity that the old guy Sima Yi took away the power of the Cao family.
After Xiahou Dun issued a military order to Cao Cao, he immediately quietly dispersed the remaining 4,000 people into three groups. Then they asked their lieutenants and their men to form a three-sided encirclement to tightly surround the Yellow Turban rebels.
Of course, there must still be a gap left. After all, these Yellow Turbans are prevented from jumping over the wall, and then it will be bad to fight back with their backs against the wall.
After all, the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. If we do not give the Yellow Turban Army on the opposite side a way out, we will be defeated. It may be difficult to win this game, and even if you win, you will have to pay a heavy price.
At this moment, Xiahou Dun had led his men to sneak forward to a distance of less than a hundred rebels, and he was well protected by the surrounding woods.
Now except on the main road, the Yellow Turban Army is basically surrounded by Qingzhou City.
Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the people led by Xiahou Dun had already laid an ambush. After all, next is their main force of more than a thousand people. On the plain battlefield, the lethality of a thousand cavalry is far more terrifying than that of infantry.
One charge can take away at least a thousand enemies. Moreover, many of them will be trampled to death by horses, or they may be trampled to death by themselves in the chaos and panic.
There are too many such cases on the battlefield, so these cavalry were the main force on the battlefield in every dynasty in history.
At this time, the deputy general who was above Qingzhou City seemed to see something. With the bright moonlight, he could clearly see a soldier wearing Han army armor.
It's just that this person didn't notice the moon in the sky when he was hiding, and his shadow was shining on the grass. So the deputy general above the city saw it. He quickly called to the prefect beside him, Gong Jingdou, and said, "Sir, I seem to have seen reinforcements from the Han Dynasty."
"In the woods to the southeast, there is still a shadow leaking out. My subordinates guess that they may be attacking the Yellow Turban Army's camp at night, so we have the opportunity to counterattack."
"As long as we wait for the shouts of killing, we will immediately gather our troops and rush out. Success or failure depends on this one move, which is better than us holding on to Qingzhou City."
Following his lieutenant's words, Gong Jingyi also looked toward the woods to the southeast. Sure enough, I saw a man wearing Han army armor, and his shadow was reflected on the trees.
Gong Jingdu: "Go down now and call out to the resting soldiers."
"Remember not to make any noise and keep them awake at all times. As soon as the shouts of killing start coming from below, have them come out wearing armor immediately."
Afterwards, after Gong Jingyu finished speaking, he was always observing the movements of the Yellow Turban Army below.
Cao Cao and Liu Bei have already led their cavalry to a distance of less than 300 meters from the Yellow Turban rebels. Now they only need to wait for Xiahou Dun's men to kill them. Then they can rush out together as quickly as possible and kill the Yellow Turban Army without leaving a single piece of armor behind.
Xiahou Dun: "Tell brothers, don't be merciful."
"War is accompanied by death, but it is also accompanied by promotion to a higher position."
"The general said that as long as we defeat these Yellow Turban rebels, then their spoils will be ours, and by then it will be a windfall, enough for us to spend."
"Are you all ready?"
The people around him nodded one after another, and Xiahou Dun did not hesitate. He immediately led his men to kill them, and all three of the discovered enemies rushed into the opponent's camp. Many Yellow Turban soldiers lost their lives in their sleep, and they did not even know who the enemy was.
"There is an enemy attack!"
With the sound of a patrolling Yellow Turban army breaking the balance, Xiahou Dun shouted directly
Said: "Brothers, kill!"
For a time, the entire Yellow Turban Army was in chaos. Some got up to put on clothes and some got up to take weapons. Some people even had their heads cut off with a knife as soon as they got up.
At this moment, Liu Bei and Cao Cao also led their cavalry into the battlefield from the front. More than a thousand cavalry were divided into two groups. The battlefield was immediately divided, and the Yellow Turban Army's position was filled with flames.
Gong Jing, who was on top of the city, said: "Soldiers, our reinforcements have arrived."
"Everyone, follow me and kill!"
The moment the city gate opened, eight thousand soldiers filed out. Joined the camp that massacred the Yellow Turban Army, and the Yellow Turban Army fell one by one into bloody ashes.
Zhang Liang was also frightened and woke up from his sleep. The two Liu Bei and three brothers led about 500 sword cavalry in frantic harvesting. Their fierceness and Li Zhong were killing more and more. Some ordinary Yellow Turban rebels were frightened, and no one dared to fight back. Because those who dared to fight back became corpses before their eyes.
Gong Jing ordered: "Kill all the soldiers!"
"Whoever captures Zhang Liang alive will be promoted to three levels in a row." As his words stimulated the soldiers, they became even more crazy. When Zhang Liang looked at the current situation, he thought that he was surrounded and certain to die.
Therefore, he did not hesitate to abandon the Yellow Turban rebels and escape. After all, his entire military camp was now on fire. Looking at them, they were basically the corpses of his Yellow Turban Army, and the huge shouts of killing were deafening.
Therefore, Zhang Liang had no doubt that he had been deceived. Instead, he believed that his side was defeated and innocent.
A yellow turban soldier ran up to Zhang Liang and said, "General, let's run now."
"You have been targeted, as I said just now. The person who captured you alive was immediately promoted to three levels. Now these Han soldiers look at you like a daughter-in-law."
When Zhang Liang heard this, he thought it was a good idea. He immediately said: "Now you are looking for a dozen smarter people like you."
"When the time comes, let's run away together. We'll go visit General Tian Gong." Zhang Liang was also a smart man. He and his men planned to sneak out secretly while taking advantage of the chaos on the battlefield.
It was just a pity when he wanted to run away and leave. He did bump into Xiahou Dun head-on, and Xiahou Dun thought at first glance that this guy was the leader of the Yellow Turban Army. After all, who else would show up secretly while escaping?
Later, Xiahou Dun cut off the head of Zhang Liang, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army, and shouted: "Your leader is dead, don't resist needlessly!"
"Your leader is dead. Put down your weapons and stop fighting!"
And Liu Bei also killed the Yellow Turban Army in front of him. Looking at his brother, he immediately said: "General Xiahou under General Cao is really wise and powerful. He actually killed the rebel leader of the Yellow Turban Army in just half an hour. .”
However, in this short half hour. The Yellow Turban Army suffered more than 10,000 casualties, most of whom died in their sleep.
Moreover, not many Yellow Turban rebels were killed. Most of them were trampled to death by the Yellow Turban Army themselves.
Li Zhong: "Brother, why should you let others' ambitions destroy your own prestige?"
"The leader of the Yellow Turban Army, my second brother and I can kill him."
At this time, Cao Cao's voice sounded from the outside: "Put down your weapons, your leader is dead."
"Put down your weapons and we promise not to kill anyone!"
Afterwards, these Yellow Turban soldiers had no choice but to take down their weapons one by one. After all, their general was also dead and now he was surrounded by enemies.
Without anyone to direct them, they had no idea what they were going to do next, so they had no choice but to obey Cao Cao and the others and lay down their weapons and surrender.
They didn't know that their 60,000 people were surrounded by 10,000 people from the other side. Moreover, the opponent also won the battle, and they were completely defeated at the cost of seven to eight hundred people.
Cao Cao: "Xiahou Dun, you have made great contributions. I will definitely report it to the Emperor. Your contribution will definitely not be less."
At this time, Gong Jingyi came over following the voice and said: "I wonder who you are?"
"It's the Han army again. Thank you very much, Governor Qingzhou."
"Thank you for saving the people of Qingzhou from the fire and water. I am deeply grateful."
When the governor of Qingzhou walked in, Cao Cao immediately said: "Master governor, I am the general holding the halberd. A young general under General Lu Zhi has been ordered to come to support Qingzhou."
At this time, Liu Bei also came with dozens of his remaining people. Moreover, the brave performance of the three brothers just now was noticed by the prefect, and they can be described as young heroes.
Gong Jingzhi: "Who is this strong man?"
Liu Bei: "Liu Bei, named after King Jing of Zhongshan, is named Xuande. These two are my sworn brothers. This is the second brother Gao Meng, and this is the third brother Li Zhong."
After Liu Bei finished speaking, Gong Jing said: "I didn't expect that he was a clan member of the Han Dynasty. I am disrespectful and disrespectful."
"Thank you three heroes for your help. I wonder if the three of you are willing to stay in Qingzhou and follow me?"
Of course, Gong Jing was just asking, after all, it might succeed. Moreover, these three, whether Liu Bei, Gao Meng or Li Zhong, are all top-notch masters. In his opinion, they are definitely better than his men.
He couldn't win over this general under Lu Zhi. After all, he was a member of the army. But Liu Bei and the other three are obviously still themselves, so he might try to fight for it.
