Chapter 11 Battle of Changsha

It can be said that everything is in order now, just waiting for the time to come.Cao Cao ordered everyone to rest, but he couldn't calm down.After all, it is the first time to use soldiers, so it is inevitable to be nervous.He forced himself to close his eyes and stay still, until Qin Yilu brought the rice in front of him, and then he opened his eyes and took two mouthfuls. "My lord, if you..." "Call the general!" "My general, you need to use more." Qin Yilu said with a silly smile. "I can't eat it." Cao Cao pushed the bowl away. Qin Yilu really dared to speak: "If you don't eat, I will. I have to eat enough."

"You chatter, eat, eat!" Cao Cao ignored him, pacing up and down in the big tent, "I'm going to kill you, you skinless and shameless thing." "You said that I have no skin and no face, but I have no skin and no face when I am young." Qin Yilu picked up the bowl but did not eat. What should you do if you are exhausted and unable to command? So I will eat more, and if the time comes, I will be able to escape!" "Presumptuous! You..." Cao Cao was furious and turned around to get angry, but Qin Yilu smiled and held the bowl in front of him again: "My lord, in order to win the war, you should use more."

Cao Cao gave a "puchi" smile, took the bowl and said, "You piece of hob meat!" Qin Yilu became more and more obsequious: "I wish I was a piece of meat. If I were meat, I would give it to you to eat at this time. I would be so strong in battle. Go out and have a look, brothers are full of energy! Everyone says you are The command of the lower realm of the gods is determined. If you are the lower realm of the gods, then we are all heavenly soldiers and generals, how can we not win this battle?" A villain has the ability to be a villain, although Cao Cao knew that what he said was all nonsense, but at the moment it was quite useful, he cheered up a lot, and picked up a bowl to eat up the battle meal.Long ago, Lou Yi washed and drank the Dawan horse, tied up the quiver, wiped the sword and spear countless times, and it was shining brightly.When everything was ready, Cao Cao sent an order to pull out the camp and set off.

This time the march again was different from yesterday. Three thousand horses rode fast horses with whips, iron hooves raised dust and morale was turbulent.After the soldiers' briefing was over, Cao Cao ordered his team to rest on the spot to draw water, and he led his own soldiers along the road to Xiongguan. The person guarding the gate is Xu Yong, the left supervisor of Yulin, who has now acted as the captain guarding the pass. Cao Cao saw that his eyes were bloodshot, and he guessed that he hadn't slept soundly for several days. "There were some thieves who came before the pass, and they were all defeated. Now that the two groups of people are surrounded, they will not come easily. There are no thieves stationed in the west of Yangcheng and Mi County. If you save Changshe, at this moment You can take a break in Yangcheng and Mixian after you leave the customs."

"There is no delay, I will leave the customs immediately, and go straight to the Changshe day and night." Xu Yong had heard Cao Cao's name early on, but he also knew that this was his first time leading troops, so he couldn't help frowning slightly: "Running day and night? Have you considered it?" "Well. The mob is all peasants. They work at sunrise and rest at sunset. They just took advantage of the cover of night to attack Changsha. Their morale is high now, so we can't delay." "Okay..." Seeing that he decided to stop talking, Xu Yong cupped his hands and said, "Be careful along the way."

"Thank you, Master Xu, for your care. The journey is still far away and I dare not delay, Cao Mou will leave here, the general has suffered a lot." "Each each other." Cao Cao straddled his horse and went down the road. The three thousand people had finished their rest and immediately opened the gate and left.This time the marching speed was faster, like a gust of wind blowing, regardless of the official roads, they took the nearest road and went straight to Changshe.Along the way, I also encountered three or two yellow scarf wandering warriors, and I ignored them as they galloped past.After staying in Yangcheng, it was getting late.

The weather in April has turned hot, but it cools down after dark.A gust of wind was blowing, and it was cool enough to gallop a horse. When someone was hungry, they stuffed a few pieces of biscuits and dried meat on the horse and continued on their way.It took a day and a night to recuperate before, and in addition to marching in the open air all the time, everyone could still see vaguely even in the dark.The most important thing in the raid technique is to keep the whereabouts secret. Cao Cao only asked the leader to light two torches to identify the way, and the army marched with the firelight without any confusion.

"It's the first time to ride a horse like this, it's such a pleasure!" Someone shouted, and everyone's chatterbox opened: "That's right! I won't be a bodyguard anymore, I will join the army to fight in the future!" "Hahaha! Yue Hei Feng Gao happened to kill people." "Even if spies find them, they won't be able to catch up with us!" "We fucking win!" "Hahaha..." Cao Cao also looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "It's tonight to become famous!" This kind of march can be described as extremely fast. Fang Zhizi had already passed through Mi County and approached Changshe County, and further ahead was the main force of the Yellow Turbans.Everyone stopped talking, and immediately rushed towards the direction of the county.

Suddenly, a large fire ignited directly in front of him! "What's the matter? What's the matter? Is there a battle?" All the soldiers were a little surprised and slowed down involuntarily.Cao Cao's mind buzzed: Who wins and who loses?Do you want to rush in? But he immediately came to his senses. If he came so fast, he would lose his morale if he stopped. Now that he was in the place of the Fourth World War, he could only move forward and not retreat.He drew out his Qingzhi sword and shouted loudly: "Pass down my general order, don't hesitate to neglect, go forward at full speed!"

A red light appeared in front of the speaking room, and shouts could be heard from afar.After all, the people Cao Cao led had never been on a large battlefield, and they encountered such a chaotic situation when they sent troops for the first time. Although the soldiers heard the general order, they were still a little scared. Cao Cao was helpless, but Qin Yilu yelled in the voice of the male duck: "Kill his mother's eggs, make meritorious service and make money to marry a wife, I will be the first to die with them!" That's what he said, but he didn't stay by Cao Cao's side move.

"Yes! Yes! Do meritorious service to make money and marry a wife, go!" Everyone's pride was mobilized immediately, and they all grabbed their spears and rushed forward. There was no need for torches at this moment, the fire at Changsha had already turned half of the sky red, illuminating the road clearly.In a blink of an eye, the distance is like dark clouds, and the Yellow Turban Army is close at hand! Cao Cao's troops could be seen clearly from the dark, but the yellow scarves were all hard to distinguish from the dark. In addition, the three thousand cavalry did not have torches, and they did not know how many officers and troops came.These farmers are used to working at sunrise and resting at sunset. They were shocked when they saw the fire in the middle of the night.When the hearts of the people were flustered, one person fled and the others followed, and there was already chaos before the battle.At this time, Sanqianqi really complied with Qin Yilu's words, like a heavenly soldier and a general, he plunged into the Yellow Turban army in a daze, and stabbed the enemy with the sharp blade of his spear and spear like a toad through horsepower.Some people find it troublesome, so they put their spears on the side of the horse's head, and the horse rushes into the crowd, blocking death and meeting death! Cao Cao could clearly see that these Yellow Turban soldiers had no fighting spirit at all, and their armaments and equipment were very simple. Most of them were armed with hoes and sticks. What's more, they didn't even pick up weapons overnight. Not to mention fighting back was parrying He didn't even have the power to do it—the fire must have been caused by Huangfusong. The three thousand cavalrymen had long since been red-eyed, rushing from left to right, and did not know how many lives of the enemy were wasted.Cao Cao reined in his horse and ordered Qin Yilu to pass on his orders, not to disperse and chase the enemy, but to run straight ahead to join Huangfu's army.The sound of shouts, swords and guns, flames, and howls was deafening, and the entire battlefield seemed to be boiling like a cauldron. The yellow turban army couldn't tell the direction, so they ran and fled indiscriminately. Cao Cao managed to gather the troops, and heard crying and howling loudly.These people are even worse than those who were killed just now. They don't even have the yellow scarves on their heads, their bare hands are disheveled, and they don't even have shoes. They are crowded and trampled. When they see Cao Cao's team, they don't even dare to look at it. With one glance, the birds and beasts scatter to both sides, and there is no power to restrain the chicken at all. Cao Cao commanded the soldiers to continue to charge forward against the torrent of defeated soldiers. He didn't know how long they rushed and how many people they killed. Finally, they heard the sound of drums and saw the flags waving.When the two armies meet, the soldiers communicate with each other.On the one hand, the fast horses gallop to the wind and dust, and on the other hand, they are exhausted after a long time of depression. On both sides, people who don't know each other throw down their weapons and hold hands to embrace each other.A scout (scout) came to Cao Cao all the way to ask questions: "General Cao has been working hard from afar, and my lord is here to invite you." Letting go of the pursuing Huangfu army, three thousand riders followed the scouts.It was already dawn, Cao Cao was relieved for a while, and suddenly saw a large flag in the crowd, and Sima Wei Jie, holding a sword in his hand, was directing his soldiers to pursue it.Cao Cao couldn't restrain the joy in his heart, and shouted: "Wei Sima, I'm coming too, little brother!" Wei Jie did hear him, and glanced at him from a distance, as if he didn't know him, and didn't respond.After all, this was not the place to talk, so Cao Cao stopped disturbing him and continued on his way.After walking for a long distance, I saw a lot of banners and flags, tall baiyans, and beard beds on the slope. Among them was a tall, long-bearded veteran with a golden helmet and armor. Was it Huangfusong or who? Cao Cao stopped the team, got off his horse and trotted along with the scouts, ran to the slope, knelt down and saluted: "The last general Cao Cao, see General Huangfu." "Get up!" Huangfu Song came down to greet him, "You are also an imperial envoy general, we are the same, I can't afford your bow. But the court also underestimated us old bones, it must be because I was trapped because I was sitting I sent you here. Did you know that my fire is enough to scare the Yellow Turban rebels!" Cao Cao bowed his head and stood up: "The old general is indeed a great man! It's just that the last general's rescue came too late, he couldn't help, and he didn't make any contribution. I'm ashamed!" "Hahaha..." Huangfu Song twisted his beard and laughed, "Turn back and look at your soldiers!" Cao Cao looked back and couldn't help being surprised.As the sun rose, the sky was already bright, and the most eye-catching thing under the sky was the soldiers and horses he brought.These people were still uneven when they came out, but now they are all dressed in the same color - red helmets, red armour, and red mounts, which are stained with the blood of the enemy!How many people have been killed...Qin Yilu waved a big flag and shouted loudly: "Everyone is here, no one is injured! None of us are injured!" Cao Cao stayed there, only to feel that Huangfu Song patted him on the shoulder: "General Cao, the blood all over his body is due to you!" Only then did he realize that he was also covered in blood, no wonder Wei Jie couldn't recognize him. "Are you tired?" "The old general Kui Ye set fire to break through the siege and is not tired, how dare the last general say he is tired!" "The son of Jugao really knows how to talk." Huangfu Song smiled, "If Zhu Jun hadn't contained the enemy these days, I wouldn't be able to win. Well, let's join forces and head west to kill Yangdi immediately!" Make the mountain shake, and the three armies can hear it clearly.The Han army took advantage of the victory and rushed to Yangdi. They have been besieged for nearly a month.The Yellow Turban Army was only relying on the advantage of the large number of people, but was terrified by the fire of Changsha, and could no longer summon up courage.Wherever the Han army went, it was like chopping melons and vegetables. Before they reached Yangzhai County, scouts reported: "General Zhu heard that we had won, and fought bravely. We have broken through the enemy's line, and Bocai's people have been defeated. ! A few miles ahead, our army will be able to join them." The generals commanded by Huang Fusong and Cao Cao were overjoyed.Just when I was happy, I saw the yellow scarves fleeing in the north in chaos, and rushed out a group of brave men. Although there were not many people, they all killed them like blood, and they were too brave.Cao Cao saw Wang Zijiang flag at a glance: "It's Wang Zishi, and Wang Shijun has also killed him!" Gradually, the banner of Zhu Jun's army was already visible, and the rendezvous of the Han army was in sight.Cao Cao could no longer restrain his excitement: "Yingchuan has been saved! Luoyang has been saved! My man has been saved!" The soldiers cheered after hearing this. Cao Mengde closed his eyes and listened to the overwhelming cheers. After fighting for a day and a night, he felt tired, dripping sweat dripping from the enemy's blood flowed down his cheeks.He smiled and muttered: "Father, I did not disappoint you..."
