The night is already very late, and today is the third day of the Lunar New Year.

The moon hung like a thin line in the sky. It only showed its face in the sky for a while when it was just dark, and then completely disappeared.

By this time, I no longer knew where I was going.

Above the extraordinarily deep black sky, there are stars like gems.

Zhao Cen, the general of Hua Xiong who had previously told Hua Xiong to be careful about this action, whether Liu Cheng was plotting against Hua Xiong, looked at the neatly dressed man leading his own troops and followed without saying a word.

When the Sishui Pass cave door was opened quietly, Uncle Liu Huang, who was the first to go out, felt that his face was burning at this time.

I really used the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman!

It was not only Zhao Cen who felt this way, but also many people who had similar thoughts to Zhao Cen in the past had similar thoughts at this time.

Even Hua Xiong and Li Su, who had not doubted Liu Cheng's purpose in giving such advice before, at this moment, faced with this situation, had many feelings in their hearts.

When Liu Chengcai led his soldiers and horses over, he was influenced by the general Hua Xiong. These people all had some prejudices and hostility towards Liu Cheng and the soldiers and horses led by Liu Cheng.

However, after what Liu Cheng, the cavalry captain, did today, especially at this moment, after he led his troops and horses out of the customs first, these people's attitude towards Liu Cheng immediately changed.

degree of change.

And it only took a very short time to complete such a big transformation.

This is nothing short of amazing.

It can be considered a small miracle!

"Uncle Liu Huang is a true hero!"

Hua Xiong couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.

"I am too short-tempered!"

Li Li Su, who was standing elsewhere, also spoke in a low voice...

…

Liu Cheng led the horse with wrapped hooves and walked in the darkness of the starry sky, feeling some strange feelings in his heart.

There is no tension like a war is coming, but instead there is a sense of anticipation and a feeling of excitement for the battle that is about to take place.

Liu Cheng knew that this was the change brought about by the Overlord Broken Blade that often appeared in his sleep.

Fortunately, when I came here, I somehow got such a broken blade and gained the courage of the Overlord. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to quickly open up the situation in this chaotic situation.

Very difficult.

Not to mention that he was about to lead these soldiers and horses to fight against Sun Jian and Sun Wentai, the princes of the early Three Kingdoms who were particularly capable of fighting!

Thinking of Sun Jian, one cannot help but think of Sun Ce, Sun Quan, Sun Shangxiang and other outstanding sons and daughters of Sun Jian, and of course, Zhou Lang and Xiao Qiao...

Thinking about these things randomly in his mind, Liu Cheng, who had good eyesight, took the lead and walked quietly forward.

Behind Liu Cheng, there was someone holding the corner of his clothes with their hands.

There is no way around this.

At this time, it is already dark, and the living conditions at this time are difficult, resulting in many people suffering from night blindness. Instead of using this method, let the people who go to the night attack move forward one by one, and wait until they reach Sun Jian's camp.

There, with the 1,800 soldiers he came out, half of them were probably lost on the road, and the formation must have become extremely scattered...

Fortunately, at this time, some braziers were lit in Sun Jian's camp for lighting, so that Liu Cheng and others would not be able to find the target of the attack in the darkness.

After some walking, Liu Cheng and others, who were walking quietly in the darkness, were already parallel to the front of Sun Jian's camp.

You can even see some soldiers standing guard and patrolling here under the light of the fire, with their necks curled up, enduring the cold and drowsiness.

Seeing this, Liu Cheng and his party became even more careful and cautious.

Fortunately, in these days, Liao Hua and Li Jin combined their own original methods with some training methods provided by Liu Cheng to conduct intensive training for these soldiers and horses for more than two months.

It may not be good in other aspects, but when it comes to queues and formation discipline, it is very passable.

Therefore, the journey was uneventful.

After arriving at Houzhai, the scene we saw was very different from the previous one.

There are only a few braziers used for lighting here, and the fires are not strong at all and look like they are going to be extinguished.

The soldiers patrolling the sentry were not seen either, and they were very quiet.

It may be that these people under Sun Jian subconsciously thought that this was the rear stronghold, and the people behind them were all allies and others who wanted to attack Dong Zhuo, and there were no enemies.

So the defense is not as tight.

This is also an important reason why Liu Chenghui proposed this.

He remembered that there was such a strategy in a novel he had read in later generations.

Now when used in conjunction with the actual situation, the effect is pretty good.

It seems that not all the novels are lies, there are also some useful facts...

It was quiet here in Sun Jian's Houzhai, and many people had fallen asleep.

It's understandable, after all, under the leadership of Sun Jian, they drove non-stop for several days before they got here.

As soon as they arrived here, there was a big fight, and then they tried their best to build a camp. Now that the time has come to this point again, of course they slept soundly.

However, this calm was soon broken. Many torches quickly appeared and were thrown on tents and the like, and soon a bigger fire started.

A large number of soldiers and horses poured in from the broken camp. In the night and under the firelight, they waved their weapons at the bewildered people, splashing blood and bringing out the tragic scene that cut through the night sky.

Call……

Sun Jian, who was still alert even though he was asleep in the camp, opened his eyes and jumped up from the bed!

After getting up, he stood there stunned for a moment, then quickly put the arrow pot on his body, put the bow and arrows on his back, picked up his ancient ingot knife, and rushed out of the tent!

As soon as the people walked out of the camp, Sun Jian's gloomy eyes looked towards the front camp.

As a result, when he looked at it, Sun Jian was instantly stunned.

Because there was no sound of fighting here in the front village, and there was only the expected chaos, only the noise made by some soldiers after they were awakened!

After Sun Jian was stunned, he quickly turned his head and looked back, only to see a fire breaking out in the back village, and the flames were blazing.

Under the light of the burning flames, you can also see soldiers holding fire starters, lighting up their camps there, and killing their subordinates who have just been awakened!

At this moment, Sun Jian was a little confused.

Because for a while, he didn't understand why the back of his camp was attacked!

The rear of your camp is said to be the safest. There are no enemies in that direction, only those who want to challenge Dong.

It is absolutely impossible for those people to send troops to attack them under the current circumstances!

Because of this, the old and weak among his generals, as well as the soldiers who had been recruited for a short period of time and had not received much training, as well as the hundreds of captured Hu Zhen's subordinates, were all brought to the rear camp for custody.

As a result, now, there is an attack there!

"I was careless!"

After a brief moment of confusion, Sun Jian shouted loudly, with annoyance.

Then someone immediately sent an order: "Tell Cheng Pu and Han Dang in the front village that they must lead their troops to hold on and do not lead their troops to come for rescue!

Be careful to prevent the thieves from Sishui Pass from taking advantage of the situation to come out and attack the front camp!"

A soldier who had gathered beside Sun Jian, after receiving the order, ran towards the front village where there was a lot of warning and panic.

"Light up the braziers and place them around me!

Move my general's flag here so that the soldiers can see that Sun Jian and Sun Wentai are here!"

As soon as the soldiers who went to Qianzhai to convey the order left, Sun Jian once again issued a new order.

"Hurry up and follow my orders!"

When Sun Jian saw that the soldiers beside him were hesitant, he immediately shouted sharply.

The soldiers quickly followed Sun Jian's orders.

"My lord, the enemy army suddenly attacked. I don't know the details. If my lord is exposed to the fire like this, I'm afraid there will be stray arrows that will hurt my lord!"

The red turban on my lord's head is too conspicuous, please exchange it with me, so that I can stand here on your lord's behalf to calm people's hearts!"

The person who spoke was Zu Mao, a native of Fuchun, Wu County. He had been fighting with Sun Jian a long time ago and was an old subordinate of Sun Jian.

"Darong, there is no need to persuade. The situation is urgent now. Only I, Sun Jian, can do this myself! Darong, go and organize the soldiers and prepare to rush to the rear camp..."

Sun Jian directly rejected Zu Mao's proposal.

Zu Mao knew his lord's temper very well, so although he was anxious, he still acted quickly as Sun Jian said...

"Captain, judging from the battle with Sun Jian during the day today, Sun Jian is not a simple person.

Wasn't the captain previously worried that Liu Cheng would take credit with the captain?

Now is your chance!

As long as the captain does not lead his troops and waits here to watch what happens, even though Liu Cheng is arrogant, he and his troops will only be surrounded and killed.
To be continued...
