Chapter 4, 8, and 8: Pull out the arrow and close the eyes, Xiahou Dun is defeated and goes to Chengxian County
The personal soldier said enviously: "Tsk tsk, look at that big fat pig, at least one hundred kilograms, two people can slaughter it. The movement is very quick!"
Personal soldier Yi deeply felt the same and replied: "You said no, look at those who slaughter chickens and geese, and their hands were raised and their eyes fell without blinking!"
When Xiahou Dun heard this, he knew that things were not so simple. If there were so many butchers in a city, it would be reasonable. However, so many butchers and so skillful movements, there would be only two places to have so many people who kill without blinking. At this moment, Xiahou Dun dared to conclude that these people were not robbers who robbed their families, or people in the military. This matter is actually not difficult to explain. Although Xuzhou has been rich for many years, the people in its territory will not be rich enough to eat meat every meal. Killing animals requires skill. If it were not people who were used to killing, who could have such a calm expression?
Thinking of this, Xiahou Dun hurriedly called his personal soldiers and asked him to order the entire army to gather out of the city.
In fact, Xiahou Dun was already alert and issued an order, but it was too late. Xiahou Dun's 50,000 troops ate some food prepared by the "city people" for him. At this moment, thousands of people were covering their stomachs with painful expressions. Some of them were not good at their health, and they were already in a state of turmoil and in pain.
"Oh..." Xiahou Dun's face changed, he quickly lifted his sword and got on his horse, roared around, and said, "Hurry, the whole army withdraws from the city, withdraws from the city, retreat!"
Hundreds of people had just gathered on Xiahou Dun. In an instant, loud shouts of killing erupted in the entire Yinping City. Countless Yuan soldiers either rushed out of the houses or emerged from the roofs, either shooting arrows or raising shields to cross, constantly disturbing Cao's formation.
For a moment, soldiers from both sides were fighting everywhere on the streets.
The Cao army had an accident and its morale was unstable. As soon as it came into contact, it gradually showed its defeat. At some point, a group of magic archers suddenly appeared in the Yuan army, constantly shooting and killing low-level officers like Du Bo in the Cao army. Without anyone being commanded, the Cao army's formation was in chaos and was already on the verge of collapse.
Xiahou Dun saw all this and was anxious in his heart.
"Run!" After finally gathering thousands of people, Xiahou Dun did not dare to neglect and quickly led his army to rush out of the city.
With Xiahou Dun's joining, the morale of Cao's army was slightly shocked, and countless Cao's soldiers followed Xiahou Dun and fought hard outside.
If the military strength is compared, the soldiers of Yuan's army would be slightly worse than those of Cao's army. Fortunately, Zhang Xun had an orderly dispatch and good command, which was comparable to the Cao's army.
Zhang Xun stood on a city tower, looked at Xiahou Dun who was showing his might and exclaimed: "What a Xiahou Dun, who is so powerful, only a few thousand people, is about to break through the cage array carefully arranged by the general!"
The deputy general laughed and said, "Xiahou Dun is just a dog that is strayed. General, the last general will gather people and surround Xiahou Dun. As long as Xiahou Dun dies, his army will be destroyed!"
Zhang Xun sneered, then drew out the bow and arrow, and said disdainfully: "It's just a brave man, it depends on how I will shoot him!"
After saying that, Zhang Xun jumped and jumped from the city tower to the roof of the house next to him. His figure was like a green swallow, constantly shuttled through the roof.
Xiahou Dun was only concerned about fighting on the street, and he was riding a tall horse. When he rushed to the city gate, he saw that the city gate was wide open and Yuan's army had few troops, so he felt a little relieved. However, Zhang Xun waited on the roof not far away for a long time. He suddenly bent his bow and arrows and shot an arrow at Xiahou Dun's forehead.
‘Swoosh!’
The arrow was as fast as lightning and headed straight for Xiahou Dun's face. It can be seen that Zhang Xun's arm strength was also extremely strong.
"General, be careful..."
"Be careful of the hidden arrows, General..."
When the feather arrow shot in front of him, Xiahou Dun's personal soldiers realized that they all spoke to remind him, but it was too late, and Xiahou Dun could not dodge so he could only subconsciously turn his head to the side.
‘Puff!’
The arrows entered his eyes, causing Xiahou Dun to scream in pain.
Zhang Xun stood on the roof and laughed: "Xiahou Yuanrang, if you don't surrender at this time, when will you wait?"
Xiahou Dun stood on his forehead, stared at Zhang Xun with one eye, and asked in hatred: "Who are you? The hidden arrow hurts people, and it is not worthy of being a general! I will definitely kill you! Only by eating meat and drinking blood can I relieve the hatred in my heart!"
Zhang Xun replied disdainfully: "I am Zhang Xun, I am standing here today. If you have the courage, come!"
"What?" Xiahou Dun looked at Zhang Xun tightly and said angrily: "So you are Zhang Xun. It seems that Meng De and the others have all been fooled by you!"
"Ah..." Xiahou Dun suddenly pulled out the arrow that shot into his left eye and roared angrily: "Father's spirit and mother's blood cannot be abandoned!"
Yan Luo, everyone saw Xiahou Dun swallowing the eyeballs on the arrow in one mouthful, and blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
Such a strange scene, even a general like Zhang Xun, who had been through the battle formation, felt that Xiahou Dun's move was too much of a bloody act, and he felt his scalp numb from time to time.
After a brief treatment of the injury, Xiahou Dun was about to go to kill Zhang Xun, but was held back by his personal soldiers.
Seeing Xiahou Dun's deputy general, Han Hao said anxiously: "General, no, no, Yuan's army is surrounded again. If we don't retreat, it will be too late!"
Xiahou Dun said angrily: "I said that I would kill Zhang Xun himself, so I will never break my promise and let me go!"
Han Hao advised hard: "General, you still have to keep a useful body. It will be not too late to fight Zhang Xun again!"
"Yes, General!"
"General, run away!"
"If you don't run, it's really too late!"
Listening to the personal soldiers' persuasion of retreat, Xiahou Dun was so annoyed. In the end, reason still prevailed. Xiahou Dun held a knife and pointed at Zhang Xun from a distance, and roared: "Zhang Xun, Japan will spare your life for the time being. Wait until the next day, wash your neck and wait, open your eyes wide and see how I took your head on your neck!"
After Yan Luo, Xiahou Dun fled out of the city with more than 30,000 defeated generals.
Zhang Xun glanced at Xiahou Dun who had already run away and hummed disdainfully: "Hmph, take my head? You have to live too!"
In this battle, Zhang Xun first asked his soldiers to disguise the people to deliver food and grass to Cao's army, and during this period, he put in all the herbs they could find that could eat bad people. Fortunately, Xiahou Dun discovered it early and stopped it in time, so it did not cause a disaster. However, even so, more than 10,000 Cao's soldiers were still attacked.
Xiahou Dun eventually lost to Zhang Xun and fled out of the city. Before leaving, Zhang Xun was shot blinded by his left eye. It was really a loss of eyes and a loss of troops.
At this time, the deputy general came to Zhang Xun and bowed and asked, "General, our army killed thousands of enemies and captured more than 10,000 Cao's soldiers in this battle. What should we do if we deal with it?"
Zhang Xun sneered repeatedly and ordered without looking back: "At this time, our army entered the hinterland of Cao's army and was still fighting with Cao's army. What were the prisoners left? Kill them all. A quarter of an hour later, the entire army gathered and followed the general to pursue Xiahou Dun's defeated army!"
The deputy general was stunned when he heard this and asked suspiciously: "General, go and chase again in a quarter of an hour? Can you still catch up?"
Zhang Xun laughed and said, "You kid, don't forget Yang Hong's 20,000 cavalry. Calculate the time and hurry to Yinping, right? Can't you all, Xiahou Dun will meet them on the way to escape!"
The deputy general understood it and immediately took the order and left.
After leaving Yinping City, Xiahou Dun cursed all the way, and was in a better mood, but he continued to curse because of the pain in his left eye. The infantry behind him were also depressed and listless.
Chen Ji, who was ordered to lead his army to support Yinping, accidentally met Xiahou Dun on the way.
The two men met unexpectedly, and Xiahou Dun really felt like he was meeting "love" from the corner.
After seeing this, Chen Ji laughed and said, "It's really hard work that pays off. It's no time to get it. Xiahou Dun, today, you will die here!"
Yan Luo, Chen Ji rushed towards Xiahou Dun with 20,000 cavalrymen. He looked like he saw a brothel woman wearing clothes and still posing in a pose. The cavalry behind him even shone with his eyes, like a wolf or a tiger.
On the other hand, Xiahou Dun's side was frightened and complained.
Xiahou Dun was a violent person, but after he roared, he took a knife and went forward to Chen Ji to fight.
The soldiers of the two armies were full of morale, while the other was forced to do so. Just like that, by chance, they fought together by magic.
The Cao army rushed for hundreds of miles on foot and fought in Yinping City for a while. They were already hungry and thirsty and could not eat, but now, before they could take a breath, they met the Yuan cavalry again. In desperation, they had to use their remaining body to resist the Yuan cavalry.
After a fight, Chen Ji was defeated by Xiahou Dun, while Cao's soldiers were killed by Yuan's army and screamed and exhausted.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Han Hao had to fight and pull Xiahou Dun, who was so angry that he was killing, and said anxiously: "General, stop fighting, stop fighting, brothers are hungry and thirsty, and they really don't have the strength to continue fighting!"
Xiahou Dun said angrily: "Now that we are entangled by Yuan Jun, if we don't kill them, how can we get a way out? Han Hao, how can you just talk nonsense?"
Han Hao sighed, pointed at a city not far away, and persuaded anxiously: "General, this place is not far from Cheng County. Our army might as well retreat to Cheng County temporarily and guard the enemy to wait for assistance. How about it?"
After hearing this, Xiahou Dun glanced at the soldiers under his command who had reached their limit and sighed: "Forget it, I will listen to your advice. The whole army will retreat into Cheng County and wait for assistance!"
With Xiahou Dun's order and seeing the city wall that was close at hand, the morale of the Cao army soldiers on the verge of collapse was boosted, and they all fought out a bloody path without fear of death and retreated towards Chengxian.
Speaking of Xiahou Dun, he was also in bad luck. He was ambushed by Zhang Xun in Yinping City. He finally broke through the siege and retreated towards Tancheng. However, on the way, he encountered 20,000 Yuan cavalry who came to help. Then, the two sides fought again.
Most of the commanders of Xiahou Dun were infantrymen, but they were eventually defeated. His army was killed thirty miles south of Yinping, and finally had to retreat to Chengxian with thousands of remaining soldiers.
