Chapter 8 The Oriole Is Behind
The night in early spring is still cold, and people gather in the sun, so there are no more lights in Sun Jian’s camp.
Hu Zhen sat on the horse's back, trying hard to see more clearly, but in the faint light emitted by the vague light, he could only see a trace of light reflected by the armor.
"General?" Hua Xiong rode his horse to Hu Zhen and bowed, "Then Sun Jian seemed to be unprepared."
Hu Zhen nodded, thinking about it, they came from Yique Pass. No matter how powerful Sun Jian’s scout was, he would never be able to hear the movement behind Yique Pass, right?
He looked up at the sky. A trace of light appeared faintly in the sky. If he didn't take action, he would probably lose this excellent opportunity. At that moment, Hu Zhen looked at Hua Xiong and said, "You and I will lead a group of troops and enter from the gates on both sides. Remember, if you meet Sun Jian, you don't have to show mercy and you will definitely cut off the head of his neck."
Before going to war, Hu Zhen praised Haikou and decided to kill the head of a Qingshou official. Now, on the battlefield, only Sun Jian is qualified. If Sun Jian cannot be killed, he will lose face when he goes back in front of his colleagues, especially Lu Bu... If Sun Jian can be killed, he will definitely go to the prime minister to sue Lu Bu for disrespect for military orders to destroy his hatred.
"Here!" Hua Xiong agreed, and the two of them led a group of people to go around the gates on both sides. Hua Xiong first approached the gate and shot and killed the soldiers stationed at the gates. He easily opened the gates. Sun Jian's relaxed defense was beyond Hua Xiong's expectations, and he felt a bad premonition in his heart, and he hurriedly led the people to kill the surrounding camps.
"General, they are all empty camps!" A soldier rushed over and said loudly.
"Not good!" Hua Xiong's face changed, and he subconsciously wanted to retreat, but at this moment, the sound of gongs came from behind, followed by the rockets in the sky, and the retreat was obviously blocked.
Hua Xiong said in a deep voice: "Don't panic all the troops, follow me to fight from the front and meet with the Protector!"
Hu Zhen and Hua Xiong chose the opposite direction. Since they were ambushed, Hua Xiong didn't believe that Hu Zhen would not have it. At the moment, he didn't care how Sun Jian guessed that they were going to attack the camp. He rode his horse and wanted to meet with Hu Zhen.
On the other side, Hu Zhen did not react as fast as Hua Xiong. When the shouts of killing sounded in the back, his first reaction was to retreat behind him and break out of the camp.
But the soldiers behind were suddenly attacked and were already in chaos. When they turned around, the army was already in chaos. How could they continue to fight fiercely with the other party?
"The thief of Xiliang is not surrender!" In the chaos army, a general of the Sun family saw Hu Zhen's armor and waved his weapons to come first.
Seeing this, Hu Zhen hurriedly waved his sword to block it. Although he was led by others, his martial arts was not bad. The Qiang and Han people lived in Xiliang and rebelled all year round. Those who grew up on that land may not understand any military strategy, but they are mostly brave and good at fighting. The Sun family generals were Zu Mao, one of the four generals under Sun Jian, who was also a dragon bird with great martial arts skills, but they did not have the upper hand at all when facing Hu Zhen.
The two of them fought equally, but Hu Zhen's Xiliang army was killed and defeated, and fled in a panic. Hu Zhen saw it and was both brave and had no intention of continuing to fight with Zu Mao. He wanted to escape several times, but Zu Mao stopped him. Hu Zhen was so anxious that he shouted: "Huaxiong save me!"
"Haha, your general is probably already in a different place at this moment. How can you save you?" Zu Mao laughed when he heard this. Taking advantage of Hu Zhen's distracting spirit, he opened a huge scar on his chest with a knife, and blood gushed out. Hu Zhen screamed, turned his head and wanted to break out, but how could Zu Mao release him?
"General, don't panic, Hua Xiong is here!" When Hu Zhen was deeply surrounded, Hua Xiong, who rushed out all the way, heard Hu Zhen's cry for help, rushed over and caught Han Dang who was surrounding Hu Zhen here.
Then he saw Hua Xiong crossing the sea of fire with his horse first, falling from the sky like a god of war. Zu Mao was chasing him, but he saw a dark look in front of him. When he looked up, he saw the big sword that Hua Xiong had cut down. Before he could react, he was killed by Hua Xiong with one sword.
"Da Rong!" Around him, he was watching Zu Mao jokingly killing Hu Zhen's generals. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Zu Mao was beheaded by someone, and they were all furious. Sun Jian was even more angry and was about to fight Hua Xiong with his sword.
But Hua Xiong dared not stay after he rescued Hu Zhen with one sword. He immediately said with Hu Zhen: "Major Protector, the enemy has been ambushed, so we will break through the siege soon!"
"It must be that Lu Bu, worried that I would steal the title and secretly inform me!" Hu Zhen said in a secret hatred while walking.
I'm afraid it's not that simple.
However, Zhao Cen flashed through Hua Xiong's mind. If you know the most about their plan, Zhao Cen might be the one who knows the best. Instead, Lu Bu went to rest early. Even if he wanted to inform him, they had not decided whether to go out of the city to attack at night. In contrast, Zhao Cen's chances were higher.
But these are already a story later, so now I will think about how to escape from here alive.
But behind him, Sun Jian was angry that the two of them killed their beloved generals, but he was reluctant to leave. As he was about to be caught up, Hua Xiong said to Hu Zhen: "The Protector will leave first, Hua Xiong will cut off the rear for the Protector!"
Hu Zhen was not too polite at this moment. He pretended to be moved when he heard this, nodded at Hua Xiong, and then rode his horse even more crazily and whipped away.
Hua Xiong slowed down with the remaining hundreds of Xiliang soldiers, stopped at a narrow path, turned his horse's head and raised his sword and shouted angrily: "Xiliang Hua Xiong is here, who dares to fight me!"
The sound was thick and echoed in the mountains like thunder. The Jiangdong army that was chasing him slowly stopped in formation.
"Lord, I'll go and meet him!" Huang Gai lifted his sword and he had the best relationship with Zu Mao. Seeing Zu Mao being killed by this person with his own eyes, he felt so angry that he wanted to kill this person with his own hands.
"Slow!" Sun Jian grabbed Huang Gai and sneered: "This is a battle between the two armies, not a ruthless fight. Where is the archer? Shoot the barbarians of Xiliang for me!"
Zu Mao had already damaged him, and he didn't want Huang Gai to make any mistakes.
At this moment, the sky had already begun to brighten, and the archers quickly gathered over, placing the arrows. After a brief pause, they quickly let go of the clusters of arrows in their hands, and cold clusters of arrows fell towards Hua Xiong. The soldiers of Xiong fell one after another. Hua Xiong's war horse also took an arrow and could only get off the horse and hide behind the mountain wall. But looking at the soldiers of Xiong who were constantly falling on the ground around, Hua Xiong smiled bitterly, and he was afraid that he would be doomed today.
