Chapter 1201 : Chapter 598: Xiahou Dun's Night Attack (2)
Xiahou Dun rode his horse to reach the south gate first, climbed onto the city wall, and watched the situation at Lu Su's camp. (www
Standing at the top of the city, you can clearly see that there are no tents with lights on in the Lu Su Camp, only some occasional fire balls.
It should be a brazier.
Seeing this situation, Xiahou Dun felt relieved. He had a higher chance of winning tonight's night attack.
"General."[
Soon after, a guard came to Xiahou Dun's side.
"I know." Xiahou Dun nodded, turned around and walked down the city. He came to the bottom of the city.
At this moment, three thousand elite soldiers were arrayed behind the city gate, all of them were elite Cao soldiers with strong bodies and murderous intent. After Xiahou Dun arrived at the city, there were already guards and horses ready.
Xiahou Dun got on his horse and took the spear from the guard. He stood up on his horse and looked at the three thousand elite soldiers in front of him.
"Cao Sikong Tian was a talented man who conquered Yuan Shao and conquered the whole world. He assisted the Han Dynasty in the great prosperity and was a virtuous man through the ages. However, he occasionally made trouble at night, and Na Lu Su was one of them. The capital was invaded by soldiers and traitors. I vowed to destroy them.
.”
Xiahou Dun said loudly.
After saying a lot of useless words, at the end, Xiahou Dun shouted: "Tonight's attack, regardless of success or failure, each person will be rewarded with a gold medal and promoted to three levels. If there is a big victory, whoever takes Lu Su's head will be rewarded with a thousand households."
Marquis, ten thousand gold. Dong takes the head of eight hundred marquis, five thousand gold. If he gets the heads of other generals, he will be rewarded five hundred marquis, one thousand gold."
Xiahou Dun knew deeply that before the war, all great principles were nonsense to the soldiers. Only those who received heavy rewards would be brave.
These last words are Xiahou Dun's trump card.
Fortunately, Xiahou Dun was Cao Cao's true confidant, otherwise I wouldn't be able to list these rewards.
"kill."
Just now it was just a scene of solemn killing, but now after hearing Xiahou Dun's words, almost all the soldiers were glowing and ready to move.
After holding it in for a moment, he yelled "kill" in a low voice.
Xiahou Dun believed that if it had not been a night attack on the camp and the soldiers deliberately lowered their voices, this roar of killing would have been directed towards the bullfighting, shocking the world.
But even if it is a low roar, it is so murderous that it is moving.
"Put down the drawbridge, open the city gate, and get out of the city."
Seeing this, Xiahou Dun had a look of satisfaction on his face, held his spear behind his back, slowly turned his horse's head, and pointed directly to Lu Su's camp in the south, shouting at the same time.
Following Xiahou Dun's order, the soldiers on top of the city carefully lowered the suspension bridge.
After an almost inaudible sound, the suspension bridge was completely lowered, and the city gate was opened at the same time. Xiahou Dun clamped his legs on the horse's belly and rushed out first.[
Three thousand elite soldiers also lined up and rushed to the Lu Su camp not far away.
At the front, Xiahou Dun was in a very excited mood. As a general, Xiahou Dun was not optimistic about tonight's night attack. However, this was a strategy devised by Xun Yu, and it was successful. Even if it failed, he only had to conceal the news.
Especially when the emperor Liu Xie set fire to the Weiyang Palace in the city, the fire was raging and it took countless efforts to put it out. The Weiyang Palace was reduced to ashes, and no one knew how much money was lost.
In addition, Xiahou Dun dispersed his troops to guard the residence of the Han Dynasty ministers. The Han Dynasty ministers also led their slaves to attack. He almost regarded Lu Su as the last hope of the Han Dynasty, which caused great turmoil in the city.
Xiahou Dun was very motivated to kill the enemy and establish his power.
"I will personally burn this last life-saving straw and plunge the Han Dynasty into eternal despair." Xiahou Dun said fiercely in his heart.
