Huang Zhong's archery skills were originally capable of piercing the Yang with a hundred steps, and one arrow could easily pierce armor. Now Huang Zhong's strength has greatly improved, and his strength has undergone earth-shaking changes. The big bow he uses has also been specially customized, just for
Can satisfy Huang Zhong's strength.
With one arrow shot out, the attack was terrifying.
The sharp arrow seemed to pierce the air, and in an instant, it reached Luan Tiquan's back.
Luan Tiquan rode his horse forward, intending to get away from Huang Zhong. As he ran forward, his ears moved and he heard the sound of breaking through the air from behind. He immediately concluded that there must be a bow and arrow coming, so Luan Tiquan
Tiquan was about to turn sideways to avoid it. But just as he was about to turn sideways, he felt pain in his back.
"Puch!"
The sharp arrow had already pierced Luan Tiquan's back armor and penetrated into his body.
The speed of the bow and arrow was really too fast. Even if Luan Tiquan reacted, he could not avoid it. The moment he was hit by the arrow, he felt a pain in his heart. When he looked down, he saw that the arrow had penetrated his heart and his chest.
exposed.
Dark red blood spurted out from the wound.
Luan Tiquan was unable to stand firm under the inertia of the bow and arrow, and fell forward.
thump!
Luan Tiquan fell to the ground, his eyes widened, his body twitched twice, and then he lost his breath.
After Huang Zhong killed Luan Tiquan with an arrow, he ordered: "The leader of the Huns will be killed, sons and daughters, kill! Kill all the Huns."
As Luan Tiquan was killed, the Huns on the tower continued to flee.
Huang Zhong led the soldiers and kept killing them.
Under the city tower, there were Hun soldiers rushing to help, but as soon as they entered the pass, they were blocked by Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and others. The army quickly fled under the fierce attack of Gan Ning and others, and they could not stop them at all.
.
Huang Zhong covered and killed the Huns at the checkpoint. Soon he went down from the city tower and came to the bottom of the city tower, and then quickly covered and killed the Huns. The armies merged together, and the offensive formed became more fierce, causing the Huns to continue to retreat towards Liangzhou.
retreat.
On the official road leading to Chencang County, no Huns ran.
This was done deliberately by Cao Cao.
Even if the Huns want to retreat, they can only retreat in the direction of Liangzhou and not in the direction of Chencang County. Once the Huns go to the direction of Chencang County, they may tell the news to Maodun, causing Cao Cao to be unaware of the situation.
They were lying in ambush in Chencang County. As the Huns all went to Liangzhou, the news of Cao Cao's capture of Longguan would not spread, and Maodun became a lone army.
Once Maodun was unable to obtain food supplies and the army was short of food, Maodun's military morale would eventually be in chaos. Being blocked between Longguan and Chencang County, Maodun became a turtle in a urn and was bound to be wiped out.
This is Cao Cao's consideration.
Cao Cao sat at Long Pass and allowed Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and others to lead troops to cover up the killing.
An hour later, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning led their troops to withdraw. On the way back, Huang Zhong also counted the results of the battle. In this battle, not only did he kill the Huns' Longguan general Luan Tiquan, but also
They captured Longguan and killed nearly 3,000 Huns. If the Huns hadn't run so fast, the casualties would have been even greater.
Huang Zhong came to the city tower, saw Cao Cao, clasped his fists and said: "Mr. Cao, we killed more than 400 soldiers in this battle and beheaded nearly 3,000. It can be said to be a great victory. We captured Long Pass and also controlled the interior of Long Pass.
The Huns’ military camp. Next, should we burn the food and grass in the military camp, or move it away?”
Gan Ning also stood aside, waiting quietly.
He did not speak, waiting for Cao Cao to make a decision. After all, Cao Cao was the commander of this battle. Moreover, Cao Cao was good at strategy and was better than them in marching and formation, so Gan Ning was willing to obey Cao Cao's orders.
Cao Cao thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Nowadays, the territory of the Shu Kingdom is not vast and there is no place for farming. The military camp in Longguan has sufficient food and grass. It was all the food and grass that Mao Dun had hoarded in order to seize the Sili area. This batch of food and grass
, it can at least be enough to cover the food expenses of the Shu army for half a year. It would be a pity if all the food was burned. Not only that, once all the food is burned, the news will definitely be leaked, so we have to move all this batch of food."
Gan Ning said: "If we want to move them all, I'm afraid it will be difficult."
"It's not difficult!"
Cao Cao smiled slightly.
Gan Ning said: "How to carry it? After all, we are still behind Maodun. If we want to transport all this large amount of grain and grass back to Chencang County, we will definitely alarm Maodun."
Cao Cao stroked the beard under his chin and said: "Who said I have to move the grain and grass now? It's too early now. I can just move this batch of grain to the nearby mountains and forests and hide it. As long as the grain is hidden, it will naturally
We have cut off Maodun's food attack. Even if someone comes to fight for it, we don't have to worry. We can attack when we advance and defend when we retreat, so we are extremely flexible at Longguan. Next, I plan to pretend to be Huns at Longguan.
Guard this place and prohibit contact between Liangzhou and Maodun. The more we delay for one day, the greater the impact on Maodun."
Huang Zhong nodded and said: "What Mr. Cao said is true. We can indeed stay in Longguan. However, if we stay in Longguan, we must tell His Majesty the news. Otherwise, His Majesty and Zhao Yun are in Chencang County and do not know the situation in Longguan.
They will also worry about us."
Cao Cao smiled and said: "Don't worry, old general, about this. When you lead the army to pursue the fleeing Huns soldiers, I have already arranged for people to rush back to Chencang County and inform Your Majesty of the news."
Huang Zhong said: "Cao Gong is wise and Huang Zhong admires him."
Gan Ning also nodded in agreement.
Cao Cao smiled and continued: "There are still a lot of things to do next. Two generals, for the time being, you can organize soldiers to move all the food and grass from the Longguan camp."
"That's natural!"
Gan Ning nodded in reply.
Huang Zhong bowed to Cao Cao, took Gan Ning down to the checkpoint tower, and then mobilized the army to remove all the food stored in the checkpoint. As long as the food was not left in the checkpoint, Cao Cao, Huang Zhong and others would be ready at any time.
If you can evacuate, you will not be affected. If the food is still hoarded in the checkpoint, Cao Cao will be tied to death for this batch of food, which will be greatly affected. As long as there is no food, Cao Cao will be much more flexible.
All the soldiers in the army carried it together, so it was very fast.
In two and a half hours, all the food was emptied.
All the food was moved to a nearby secret place and hidden to avoid being found. At this time, the sky had already darkened. Cao Cao, Huang Zhong and others led their troops to change their clothes, hats and makeup, pretending to be the attire of the Huns, and then
Stationed on the tower.
The night is bright and the full moon hangs horizontally.
In the middle of the night, on the official road outside Longguan, suddenly there were cavalry galloping back quickly.
This is the sentinel sent by Cao Cao.
As long as there are sentinels patrolling the checkpoint, Cao Cao can rest peacefully. As soon as the sentinel arrived at the gate of the checkpoint, he reported his name and password, then quickly entered the checkpoint, then climbed up the gate along the Chi Road, and came to
In Cao Cao's room.
At this time, Cao Cao had already rested.
Cao Cao received a report from the soldiers that the sentry had urgent news, so he did not dare to delay and got up immediately. After seeing the sentry, he immediately said: "You rushed back overnight, but the war in Chencang County has changed?"
"yes!"
The sentry detective reported: "Master Cao, the war in Chencang County has ended. Your Majesty and General Zhao Yun joined forces to defeat Mao Dun and killed Mao Dun's general Tou Man. Now, Mao Dun has led his troops to retreat and is now
Come in the direction of Longguan. According to our calculation, Maodun will retreat to Longguan in two hours at most."
Cao Cao raised his brows and asked, "Modun will arrive in two hours. Does that mean that Modun will retreat all night and not rest at night?"
The sentry said: "Your Majesty's army pursued and attacked fiercely, so Moton kept retreating."
"knew!"
Cao Cao nodded and waved his hand for the sentry to retreat.
The news reported by the sentinel was really too important. Even Cao Cao could not take such news lightly. He immediately arranged for people to summon Huang Zhong and Gan Ning to the room, and quickly said that Mao Dun was retreating to Longguan.
things.
When Gan Ning heard this, he showed an expression of ecstasy on his face and said: "Your Majesty is really powerful. He defeated Mao Dun who besieged Chencang County in one move. Since Mao Dun was defeated in Chencang County and he retreated overnight, it can be foreseen that Mao Dun will
The fighting power of the Hun soldiers under Dun's command is definitely not strong. Not only that, the morale of the army under Mo Dun's command must have also been affected. Under such circumstances, we can seize the opportunity to give Mo Dun a head-on blow and catch him off guard."
Gan Ning was extremely excited and said: "I suggest that we send out troops immediately and set up an ambush outside the pass. Once Maodun's army arrives, we will shoot with bows and arrows, then attack Maodun fiercely and leave Maodun outside Longguan."
Huang Zhong said: "That's inappropriate!"
Gan Ning asked: "Why?"
Huang Zhong replied: "Maodun is now a bereaved dog and a frightened bird. Once we set up an ambush outside the pass, what if Maodun retreats immediately and turns in another direction?"
"In order to completely capture Mao Dun, I suggest setting up an ambush inside Long Pass. After Mao Dun enters the pass, we can then launch the ambush and defeat Mao Dun's army in one go."
"Not only that, we also ambush some troops outside the checkpoint."
"Once Maodun wants to retreat, the troops outside the pass will rush out again."
"With the two armies working together, it will be easy to kill Mao Dun. Especially the army under Mao Dun is still a tired army. Once it is suddenly attacked, it will inevitably collapse."
Huang Zhong looked at Cao Cao and said, "Mr. Cao, what do you think?"
Cao Cao said: "We quietly occupied Long Pass to ambush Mao Dun. General Huang's suggestion was a good plan. We set up ambush inside and outside the pass. Once Mao Dun arrived and started to enter the pass, we
Launch an attack immediately, destroy the morale of Maodun's army in one go, and then strive to kill Maodun."
Huang Zhong stroked his beard and smiled, a bright smile appeared on his face.
His suggestion was approved by Cao Cao, and Huang Zhong was very happy.
Cao Cao looked at Huang Zhong and Gan Ning and ordered: "This battle is crucial. I think General Gan Ning will be stationed inside the pass, while General Huang Zhong will be ambushed outside the pass. We will wait for Maodun to arrive and then launch the attack."
"The general will obey your orders!"
Huang Zhong and Gan Ning answered with fists clasped at the same time, neither of them had objections. (To be continued)
