"When soldiers are separated, they can be attacked; when they are frightened, they can be attacked." [Wu Zi expected the second enemy]
Guan is located south of the drowning river, between the two mountains.
The night was dark, and most of the defenders on the wall had slacked off and were sleeping in hiding places.
The bonfire burning on the wall gradually extinguished because it was unattended, and the area that the bonfire could illuminate became smaller and smaller. This gave Xu Huang an excellent opportunity. He led two hundred people to hide their sharp swords, and walked in the dark until they reached the pass.
I found a slightly larger gap near the wall and got in one after another.
Unexpectedly, this movement woke up a defender. He subconsciously touched the weapon next to him and shouted loudly: "What are you doing!"
With quick eyes and quick hands, Xu Huang slashed the man to death with a knife, causing his men to shout in unison, and continued to kill the defenders who had not yet reacted. The more alert defenders were frightened, and while making loud noises, they surrounded him, waving their swords and guns wildly.
He desperately blocked the attack by Xu Huang and others.
"Enemy attack! Go and tell General Liu, the rest of the people follow me!" A man jumped out from the defenders, wearing some armor and holding a big knife in his hand. He was obviously a leader in the army. He took a quick look and went to
Xu Huang's chest was chopped off.
Xu Huang sneered and stood still. He waited until the strong wind hit his face and the big knife was only one foot away from him. Then he ducked to the side, raised the knife and dropped it. The leader screamed and immediately fell to the ground dead.
The rest of the defenders were horrified, and they dropped their weapons and dispersed. Xu Huang did not pursue him, but hurriedly ordered people to shout and make it look like the imperial army had entered the pass. He also ordered people to set fires everywhere, and drove the defenders to run to the back of the pass.
The Guan Dynasty was in chaos, and the defenders fled one after another. Liu Xiongming, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up from his sleep and was shocked when he received the report. He said in a panic: "What should we do? I told the imperial court that the divisions would continue to attack each other."
Suppress thieves, don’t offend me, but you won’t listen to me!”
The general said at this time: "Now is not the time to talk about this! A moment later, we will all die!"
Liu Xiongming had no choice but to gather the remaining soldiers and horses. Seeing more than a thousand people gathered around him, he became a little more courageous, and he and his generals tried to kill at the gate. Just as they were about to rush towards the gate, dozens of people suddenly appeared on the road.
The enemy soldiers, with bows and arrows in their hands, fired randomly at them, and several people died immediately from the arrows.
At this time, countless torches suddenly appeared on the mountains in the distance, shouting at each other, and listening to the cries around him, it seemed that the imperial army had arrived overnight. Liu Xiongming suddenly lost his position, shouted, turned around and ran away.
When the defenders saw Liu Xiongming fleeing in panic, they did not resist and fled in all directions.
Xu Huang didn't care whether Wang Chang, who was a suspect on the mountain, arrived, and immediately led his men to pursue the victory, trying to annihilate Liu Xiongming on the spot. Suddenly, he saw a shout from in front, and more than a hundred of the fleeing enemy troops suddenly turned around and rushed back to break up the rear.
Xu Huang immediately accepted the challenge. There was no trace of calmness on his face at this moment. He raised his knife and shouted: "Capture Liu Xiongming alive!"
The Yu Linlang and Hu Benlang brought by him on this trip showed their talents in the melee and quickly killed the enemy. No matter how hard the invading enemies fought for Liu Xiongming, they were tired and tired after all, and no matter how brave they were, they could not resist Xu.
Rushing and killing.
Xu Huang slashed left and right with a knife, roaring repeatedly, chasing the leader. When the leader saw Liu Xiongming had gone away, he suddenly abandoned the formation and escaped. How could Xu Huang let him leave and ran forward?
Aim at his back and take advantage of the situation with a knife.
The leader was chopped to the ground. Xu Huang saw that Liu Xiongming was no longer in pursuit, so he had to stay where he was to collect his troops, rectify his troops, and said to his left and right: "Tie him up!"
Xu Huang sat on the spot, and Wang Chang came over with someone behind him, and they interrogated him together.
At first, Wang Chang had doubts about Xu Huang's night attack strategy, so he pretended to be a suspect on the mountain and was unwilling to attack the city. Unexpectedly, he missed a great success, and he felt really regretful. At this time, he didn't know the specific situation, and saw the people in front of him.
You don't look like the fairy who is rumored to be breathing mist. I can't help but ask: "Are you Liu Xiongming? Why do you look like a farmer?"
The leader immediately cursed: "If you say I am, then I am! If you say no, then I am not. Anyway, it is just a knife. If you want to kill, just kill, no matter what nonsense you say!"
Wang Chang was furious, thinking to himself, why are you so stubborn in front of me if you're not Liu Xiongming? He couldn't help but look at Xu Huang, and also complained that he didn't inform him in advance, which caused him to make such a fool of himself.
Xu Huang stood up with the knife in hand, looked the leader up and down, nodded and smiled: "You are quite capable, let me ask you now, who in your army proposed to occupy the pass?
"
"Of course it's my General Liu!"
The phrase 'you have the guts' sounded to Wang Chang like he was scolding himself. Wang Chang suddenly burst out and said: "A rebel is a traitor. What kind of bullshit is that, General Liu? Speak to me!"
"You're lying." Xu Huang said coldly: "The way Liu Xiongming was running around today, he doesn't look like someone who could come up with such an idea."
"What's so strange about this? My general can breathe out clouds and is like a god. Is there any plan that he can't come up with?"
Xu Huang said: "Liu Xiongming recruited refugees and took advantage of danger to fight. You are still loyal to him. You are really stupid."
The leader snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "If General Liu didn't accept us and took us to cultivate wasteland under the mountain, I'm afraid we would have died long ago. Why not be loyal to him?"
"If other people said this, I would believe it." Xu Huang looked at the leader's hands and said, "But looking at your gangster spirit, it is obvious that you are a thief from elsewhere, and most of Liu Xiongming's men are
How can ordinary refugees be like you? Let’s recruit them honestly. Whose idea was it to seize the pass?”
The leader seemed to have been told something that was on his mind. He hesitated for a few times, but still stubbornly refused to say anything.
Wang Chang on the side became angry and kicked him down. He kept scolding: "How dare anyone pretend to be strong in front of me? I tell you, no matter whether the person who came up with the idea is Liu Xiongming or someone else, after today
Gotta die!"
Xu Huang frowned. Being disturbed by Wang Chang, he knew that he would get nothing out of him by asking questions, so he simply swung his knife and cut off the leader's neck to kill him.
He looked around and saw that the east was gradually whitening, and the dead bodies under the door were being sorted out. Although he still wanted to chase Liu Xiongming, the other party's men had been killed and scattered, and he didn't know how far he had escaped overnight.
Xu Huang felt regretful in his heart and sighed: "It is a pity that we were not able to overcome all the difficulties."
After everyone rested for a while, Xu Huang was about to report the situation of the battle to Geshun in the rear, but was stopped by Wang Chang.
He encouraged: "Although we won the pass, we allowed the leader of the thief to escape. Now that the opponent has suffered such a defeat, people must be panicked. If we take advantage of the situation and pursue him, we can force him to surrender. Isn't this a great achievement?
pieces?"
Xu Huang didn't know what Wang Chang was thinking, so he hesitated and said: "We have trekked through the mountain road again and fought hard all night. We have become exhausted and I am afraid it will be difficult to pursue."
Wang Chang immediately said: "I have exactly one hundred men under my command. They were used as suspects before and did not participate in the war. Now you can let me lead them as the vanguard."
After Xu Huang secretly analyzed the pros and cons, he immediately agreed: "I will lead the remaining more than a hundred people as the rear team, take away the flags stored in the pass, and look for suspicious soldiers on the mountain road. But before leaving, I must first
The best way is to send the wounded soldiers to stay behind and then send them back to report."
"It's not urgent. Why don't we report it all after I make an emergency landing at Liu Xiongming."
