Seeing the thick smoke coming from the direction of Xiaopei, Xia Houyuan and Li Dian's expressions changed drastically. They looked at each other in surprise and saw the shock in each other's eyes. Li Dian pulled out his sword and faced the grain transport officer.
He chopped off his head, and then shouted loudly: "This person is deceiving the public with his evil words in the army. You should not be credulous. He must be a spy sent by the enemy to disturb the morale of our army. I hereby behead this person to show to the public. I hope
You all should take this as a warning and those who disrupt the morale of the army without permission will be punished without mercy!"
Xia Houyuan and Li Dian suppressed their anxious feelings and walked into the camp without saying a word. After entering the tent, Xia Houyuan asked: "Mancheng, what do you think we should do now? Should we continue to move forward, or should we turn back to reinforce Wen Qian?"
Woolen cloth?"
Li Dian thought for a while and said to Xia Houyuan: "Go and save Wenqian! Our expedition did not have the consent of the lord in the first place. If we had won before, we could have made up for it, but now whether we can capture Xuzhou City is still unknown.
Count, if we fail to capture Xuzhou and lose Xiaopei City, as well as Wen Qian, then the lord will definitely blame us, and we can’t afford it! And...General, you were already here when you came.
I have issued a military order in front of my lord, if Xiaopei is lost, it will be difficult for you, general!"
After hearing this, Xia Houyuan sighed helplessly, nodded in agreement, and ordered: "Return to Xiaopei!"
General Xia Houyuan gave an order, and the army turned around and headed for Xiaopei. The friendship accumulated over the years and the life and death of Le Jin made Xia Houyuan and Li Dian worried. They both hoped to rush to Xiaopei as soon as possible to save Le Jin and Li Dian.
In crisis.
But, isn’t there a saying that goes like this? In all likelihood, if God doesn’t do what you want, by the time Xia Houyuan and his deputy Li Dian lead the army to Xiaopei, the military flag with the word “Tao” written by the Xuzhou Governor has already been placed in Xiaopei City.
It was flying in the sky, and it was flying everywhere, not just from one place.
Seeing this scene, Xia Houyuan and Li Dian were furious. Xia Houyuan shouted angrily: "Damn Tao Qian, he secretly captured Xiaopei while I was not prepared. Come on! Attack, attack, attack!"
No matter what, we must capture Xiaopei again before the Lord arrives!"
"Follow your orders!" one of the ordering soldiers responded.
Li Dian, who had always been cautious, immediately objected: "General Xiahou, we have been traveling for a long time, and the physical strength of the soldiers is already a little difficult to support. If we are carrying out the attack on the city, the soldiers will definitely collapse. Like this
Attacking a city is no different than asking them to die. General, please think twice!"
Xia Houyuan was not someone who refused to listen to advice. He had been on the battlefield for a long time, and he also understood how much physical strength was consumed in siege warfare. Xia Houyuan said to the messenger next to him: "Retreat three miles, camp on the spot, and beware of enemy attacks."
"Yes!" the ordering soldier responded.
Cao Jun was worthy of being a well-trained army. It only took half an hour to build a camp. A rapid sound of war drums came from Xiaopei City. Wen Chou led 500 soldiers and arrogantly marched not far from Xiahou Yuan's camp.
Yelling and cursing.
The soldiers had just set up Xiahou Yuan's tent, and Xiahou Yuan, who was about to take a good rest, suddenly received a report from the original soldiers.
He shouted in front of me, he really didn’t know how to live or die, so I sent an order to summon a thousand Qingqi, I want to see how much Tao Qian is, and how dare he pull a tooth out of a tiger’s mouth.”
The speed of the soldiers under Xia Houyuan's command was not to be boasted. Not long after, a thousand Qingqi stood in front of Xia Houyuan in high spirits, waiting for orders.
Drive away.
Afterwards, Li Dian, who knew the news, heard that Xia Houyuan went to fight alone, and felt a little uneasy. Li Dian knew that Xia Houyuan was very reckless sometimes. If something happened, he really couldn't explain it to his lord Cao Cao. Li Dian ordered
The good subordinates ordered them to guard the camp, and he took five hundred light cavalry and followed Xia Houyuan closely.
The words were divided into two parts. Xia Houyuan came to the front of the battle and saw Wen Chou with a strong back and a strong waist. He secretly praised: "What a mighty man. Judging from his appearance, he must be an unparalleled general!" Xia Houyuan couldn't help but feel itchy, so he said loudly: "I
We are in Qiao County, Pei State, and Xiahou Miaocai is a talented person. Do you dare to fight with me?"
Wen Chou chuckled lightly, and without saying a word, he raised the eight-treasure turtle-backed hunchback dragon spear and struck him. When Xia Houyuan saw that he didn't answer, he asked: "Who is coming? I won't kill an unknown person!"
"You don't deserve to know!" Dian Wei replied.
Xia Houyuan was furious when he heard this, and struck Wen Chou with the nine-tooth machete in his hand. Wen Chou's horse retreated step by step, as if he was outmatched. Wen Chou resisted for a while, then shot away Xia Houyuan's machete, and struck out
The horse then ran away, shouting loudly as he ran back: "This guy is so powerful, I am no match for him, retreat quickly!"
Seeing the five hundred soldiers and one strong man running away in panic and confusion, Xia Houyuan laughed loudly and said: "It turns out they are just useless trash! Warriors, rush for me and destroy them.
If you defeat this enemy force, I will give you a heavy reward, General!"
There is an old saying: "Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man!"
.
Once, when fighting the Yellow Turban Army from Qingzhou to Yanzhou, Xia Houyuan faced the Yellow Turbans who were three times more powerful than himself. Before the battle, Xia Houyuan once said that if the battle was won, all soldiers would be rewarded. In the end,
Under the heroic fighting of Xia Houyuan's troops, they successfully defeated the Yellow Turban Army from Qingzhou who moved to Yanzhou.
Xia Houyuan raided the Yellow Turban army and only collected a small amount of grain, grass and coins. Excluding what he turned in, he had very little money, which was not enough to reward his soldiers, so Xia Houyuan sold everything he had.
Cao Cao rewarded him with gold, silver and jade.
However, Cao Cao had just started his career at that time, and the rewards given to the generals were not good, and they would not be worth much if they were sold in a hurry. Xia Houyuan was too embarrassed to borrow them, so he had no choice but to reward Cao Cao with his mansion.
To be sold.
After Cao Cao found out, he asked what he thought of it, and Xia Houyuan reported the truth. After hearing this, Cao Cao was overjoyed and praised Xia Houyuan, saying: "What a wonderful man this is, it should be an example for our army!" Then he rewarded him with a new mansion and some gold and silver.
To Xia Houyuan.
As soon as word of Xiahou Yuan's move spread, all the soldiers under Xia Houyuan were moved by Xiahou Yuan's move. From then on, all the soldiers took the lead on the battlefield to repay Xiahou Yuan's kindness.
When all the soldiers heard that they were being rewarded, they all rushed to the front and chased Wen Chou's escape route. Xia Houyuan even took off the precious eagle bow from the saddle, aimed at Wen Chou's back, and reminded him loudly: "No cowards."
, look at the arrow!”
"Whoosh~~~"
The arrow was like a shooting star, hitting Wen Chou in the back of the heart. Who was Wen Chou? Not only was his martial arts first-class, but his archery skills were also extraordinary! Otherwise, it would have been impossible to shoot Zhang Liao's helmet and mount.
Don't take it seriously.
Wen Chou suddenly tilted his body and dodged Xia Houyuan's arrow. At this time, Wen Chou and the five hundred soldiers were not far from Xiaopei City. Another drum sound sounded from the city tower. Hearing the drum sound, Wen Chou stopped.
Running away, he stood still and watched quietly as Xia Houyuan approached little by little.
Xia Houyuan looked at the strong man in front of him and felt that he had been fooled. Xia Houyuan could clearly feel that the aura of the man in front of him was completely different from before.
