Three Kingdoms

Chapter 3380 Private Marseille

Outside Anyi City, tonight's battle at Cao Jun's camp is like a huge spider web node, or a huge gravitational black hole. When the strong wind blows and the fire soars into the sky, I don't know how many people, how many lives, and how many people will be killed. The flesh and blood were either swallowed up or held hostage, changing the original direction of travel!

The central camp of Cao Jun's camp suddenly burst into flames. Even those who were most oblivious to the battle situation understood that Cao Jun's current momentum was like a landslide and could no longer be reversed.

No matter what the reason was for the sudden fire in the central camp within Cao Jun's camp, it meant a big defeat!

Xiahou Dun's face turned pale in the firelight.

He was trembling, pointing and grabbing the fire, feeling extremely painful.

He lost.

He lost in Taiyuan.

But it can be regarded as more or less going deep alone, fighting hard and losing, especially the artillery of the hussars, and not being able to defend against this kind of siege weapon, so sometimes when he wakes up suddenly from a dream in the middle of the night, Xiahou Dun can still do it Give yourself a little comfort, saying that it is not a human fault, it is just a strange weapon of the hussar...

Those who rely on external things will certainly not be able to conquer the world.

He is like those Confucian scholars for thousands of years. Although he knows that his statement is wrong, if he doesn't say it like this, doesn't that prove that he is wrong?

As long as you don't admit your mistake, there is nothing wrong.

At first, Xiahou Dun felt a little arrogant and prejudiced about Fei Qian, even though he was caught. He felt that Hussar was just tyrannical at this moment. In terms of longevity, tenacity, heritage, and inheritance, Still want to visit my hometown of Confucius in Shandong...

As a result, now, his faith seems to be burning and melting with the light of fire!

"No...no, no no no..."

Xiahou Dun shook his head, as if denying everything in front of him.

Fei Qian glanced at Xiahou Dun, then nodded to Julius, signaling Julius to keep an eye on him.

Julius understood and took a step forward, shrouding Xiahou Dun in his figure.

Xiahou Dun was at a loss. It was obvious that he had been greatly stimulated and would not be able to recover for a while...

Fei Qian waved to Xun Chen and gave a few instructions in a low voice.

Xun Chen nodded, turned and left.

A moment later, the war drums and horns sounded!

The hussars waiting in the mountains and fields, amidst the sound of war drums and horns, surged towards Cao Jun's camp like a wild wave!

This is the drum and clarion call for an all-out attack!

Even if Cao Jun is cheating, such a scene is worth betting on!

…

…

The hussars standing by in the wilderness quickly entered the battle.

In Cao Jun's camp, large tracts of fire were flashing and jumping, seeming to be celebrating or wailing.

The sudden change in the central camp made the military academy of Cao Jun's soldiers in Cao Jun's camp at a loss.

They panicked and sent signals to the central camp and sent out messengers, which invisibly weakened the defense of the hussars to the extreme.

There are many trenches outside Cao Jun's camp, which have been filled in or temporary treads have been built. Many hussars are entering Cao Jun's camp along these seven or eight passages.

Cao's army's camp, which was originally used to resist and defend at these camp gates or passages, was now either breached or had its morale completely shattered and fled.

Those who were dead and injured were scattered everywhere, and those who fled were covered in flames.

Every gap experienced fierce fighting.

In other words, a one-sided fight.

After all, not all Cao’s army is timid, but it’s a pity...

Every camp site was left with bright blood.

As the Hussars attacked, Cao's army continued to retreat.

Although the central camp of Cao's army had previously issued an order for each camp to stand firm and resist, at this moment and in this situation, who would insist on the previous order?

Chaos spreads, flight after flight.

Those horses that once invested a lot of manpower and material resources to create are now pushed into the ditch.

The suspension bridge on the corridor was cut down and burned.

Some were done by the Hussars, while others were made by Cao Jun himself in order to isolate the Hussars from attacking.

No matter who did these things, they all aggravated the division of Cao Jun's camp to some extent, making the Cao Jun camp, which was originally a unified camp, now become a scattered Cao Jun camp.

Some of the traps and flaps in the main passages and key locations were discovered by civilians first, while others were exposed and marked by the detection of hussar scouts.

The hussars and horses who subsequently entered Cao Jun's camp were entering the camp along these explored or marked safe passages, and at the same time, they were helping their injured comrades to slowly evacuate.

Build planks, clear trenches, dismantle walls, clean up remaining enemies, mark traps, and treat comrades...

All of this is not Fei Qian issuing instructions one by one and conducting long-distance operations, but the orderly operations naturally formed by the middle and lower-level military academy sergeants of the Hussars based on their daily drills and combat experience. The mode is like an exquisite and flexible war machine, showing unparalleled beauty in the process of gear engagement and operation.

On the other hand, those Cao Jun camps that were attacked by the Hussars were desperately waving the double rabbit flags and asking for help from other surrounding camps, but they also did not look at the requests for help from other camps...

The Cao army is huge but scattered, while the cavalry is not numerous but integrated.

The cavalry general Fei Qian has always insisted on taking the route of elite troops, and at this moment, he has received the most generous reward and the most gorgeous display!

This once powerful and huge Cao army camp was completely captured by the cavalry army. It was only a matter of time...

...

...

As for why a fire suddenly broke out in the central camp of the Cao army, causing the entire situation to suddenly deteriorate to such a situation, we have to mention Conglai.

As Heluo has been to Hedong, and this guy who can still survive in several rounds of purges and suicide, after gathering with Xu Chu, the energy he burst out is beyond ordinary imagination.

Of course, Conglai is not named Cong, nor is he called Lai, but since he became Conglai, he must come from Lai.

He hates Cao Cao, he also hates Fei Qian, and he hates this corrupt world even more!

For him, this huge empire and those huge families should all die with the old things, just like the Yuan family, the Yang family, and the current Cao family, and perhaps the future Fei family...

Even ordinary people, as long as they have faith, will have different eyes.

What's more, since he came from Heluo, he has been paying attention to everything?

Therefore, the central camp of Cao's army was the focus of attention. After joining Xu Chu, he almost did not hesitate and immediately joined Xu Chu's team. He led Xu Chu and his party through the camp and touched the vicinity of Cao's central camp.

The order issued by the central camp of Cao's army to let each camp hold on, to a certain extent, also helped Xu Chu and others to sneak, but when they touched the vicinity of the central camp, they could not move forward.

Because around the central camp, there are high walls and trenches, suspension bridge flaps, and sentry towers. Even if Xu Chu and Never were wearing armor and could withstand ordinary arrows, they might not be able to withstand crossbow arrows, not to mention the crossbow carts and catapults placed on the towers...

Never's role was most reflected at this moment.

Based on his previous impression of the central camp, he pointed out several positions, and then Xu Chu led his men to shoot two or three waves of rockets from the outside to the central camp!

In fact, Never and Xu Chu's idea was not to rely on a few of them to take down Cao's central camp, but to fish in troubled waters. The purpose of shooting rockets was to muddy the water, and if some catapults and crossbow carts could be destroyed, wouldn't it be convenient for subsequent attacks?

But Xu Chu and Never never expected that the rockets they originally fired for the purpose of chaos actually caused tons of damage in the central camp!

When the rocket was fired, someone in the central camp screamed wildly, and then there was a huge fire that lit up the entire night sky!

It also completely pushed the Cao army camp into the abyss!

…

…

Fei Qian looked at the fire that suddenly ignited in the central camp of the Cao army camp, and he was also a little emotional.

This thing is very familiar at first glance.

But every time it appears, it represents the same tragedy.

Fei Qian glanced at Xiahou Dun who was almost collapsed, and felt a little bit of pity in his heart. Seeing the Cao army defeated with his own eyes, as the second-in-command of the Cao army, it was naturally not easy.

Fei Qian was actually a little surprised.

His original idea was not to capture the Cao army camp overnight.

The reason for making a bet with Xiahou Dun was just to use this as an excuse to knock open Xiahou Dun's hard shell.

Whether Xiahou Dun wanted to come forward to collect the remaining soldiers or write a letter, there was too much room for operation.

But Fei Qian could not have imagined that the Cao army camp would collapse so quickly and so outrageously!

After a while, Xiahou Dun gradually climbed back from the edge of collapse.

"This looks like kerosene..." Fei Qian said, looking at Xiahou Dun, whose face was still extremely pale, "It looks like... well, it should be prepared for me... but, hehe, ah, brother Yuan Rang, thank you..."

"..." Xiahou Dun was speechless.

Xiahou Dun's identity was here, so even if he was captured, he still had a little freedom, but he was under the close surveillance of the hussars.

Xiahou Dun was naturally worried about this battle, so even though he knew that he would inevitably be humiliated when he met Fei Qian and arrived at the battlefront of both sides, he still felt that he had to see it with his own eyes...

Xiahou Dun never thought that he would see this scene with his own eyes!

Those scenes of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of warriors fighting bloody battles on the battlefield in the Central Plains in the early years now seem like a dream!

Just like the Cao-Yuan War, except that Fei Qian was not like Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun expected to belong to the side similar to Yuan Shao, but Cao Cao himself became the second Yuan Shao!

And this is also the script Liu Xiu got back then!

Liu Xiu also marched from the Central Plains to Hedong, and finally bypassed Guanzhong and conquered the world in one fell swoop!

Why is it different here, at this time?

Is this fate really over?

"Brother Yuan Rang, did you make a bet with me before, hoping that I would send all the cavalry to fulfill the bet? " Fei Qian said with a smile, "Now I have sent all of them... Why doesn't Brother Yuan Rang smile? "

『…』 Xiahou Dun groaned, and after a moment he slowly said, 『This is a different time. If the cavalry had penetrated deep into Cao's camp before, they could have mobilized soldiers on both wings and fought by the camp, with the advantage of the terrain... Even if they could not win, they would not be defeated... But now... the central camp is on fire, and the army is in chaos. As long as they rush into the camp and cut off the big flag, they will be... Alas... the cavalry is so talented that they can even predict such a thing...』

Since Fei Qian saw through it, Xiahou Dun did not deny it deliberately.

This kind of thing has always been a mutual calculation. Whoever is stupid will suffer, and it is effective. Once the time is over, the strategy is useless. Just like Xiahou Dun deliberately confessed to Fei Qian now, isn't it another strategy?

『Therefore...』 Fei Qian smiled, 『Brother Yuan Rang still has some luck in his heart? 』

Xiahou Dun immediately said: 『Why did the cavalry say that? ! '

Fei Qian laughed and said: 'Brother Yuan Rang, are you still unwilling to say it? Inside the Cao army camp... under the big banner, it is the substitute of Prime Minister Cao! '

'You...' Xiahou Dun stared at Fei Qian, and after a while, his shoulders slumped slightly, 'So the cavalry knew it a long time ago? '

Fei Qian shook his head and said: 'It's not that I knew it a long time ago... Brother Yuan Rang has repeatedly lured me to march... I know... Prime Minister Cao, where is he waiting for me now? Yangchi, or Zhongtiao Mountain? '

'Humph! ' Xiahou Dun refused to say anything.

Fei Qian smiled and looked into the distance.

The flames soared into the sky, like a group of demons dancing wildly, but these dancing demons will eventually stop.

Suddenly, some chaotic sounds were faintly heard in the wind!

'Enemy attack! '

Fei Qian was stunned. Where did the enemy come from?

Xiahou Dun was immediately refreshed, and he looked into the darkness and the light with his eyes wide open...

...

...

The flames may go out at some point, but some things will never die.

The flames illuminated the night sky, and the fire in the central camp piled countless lights and shadows on the battlefield.

The roars of both sides echoed in the night, colliding and splashing between the earth plateau and the gullies, like a tragic aria, which made Cao Hong almost cry!

What on earth is going on?

Wasn't it arranged to wait until the cavalry fell into the trap before launching it?

What happened to Cao Sheng?

The fierce fighting sounds on the surrounding battlefields and the roaring sound of the cavalry's horses galloping shook and spread in the front of Cao's camp, and even shook Cao Hong's robes and armor...

Of course, it could also be that Cao Hong was shaking himself.

Compared with the chaos in the front camp of Cao Jun, there is still a group of Cao Jun elites in the rear camp of Cao Jun, holding swords and guns, waiting for Cao Hong's order.

Cao Hong's original plan...

Forget it, Shandong King of Ideas has not put any ideas into practice until now.

Now Cao Hong's plan has failed again, which seems to be inevitable.

But it seems hard to say how many mistakes Cao Hong made and how stupid he was. He could fight and resist in the Central Plains before, but when he came here, he couldn't fight well and couldn't resist anything!

When Cao Hong was not injured during the day, his mental state was still very good. He was thinking about how to fight against the cavalry and how to wear down Fei Qian's strength. He issued military orders and so on, and his orders were clear and full of confidence. But now that he was injured, small mistakes turned into big mistakes at night, and big mistakes became irreversible fatal mistakes!

Now that the fire broke out in the central camp of Cao's army, the whole camp was shaken, and some people began to scold Cao Sheng, and many of them tried to excuse Cao Hong and put all the blame on Cao Sheng.

This is also a traditional Shandong art. As a leader, of course he will not make mistakes. The mistakes are all in the execution. Since it is Cao Sheng who is now in charge of igniting the fire, even if everyone knows that the person responsible for pressing the button is a temporary worker called in temporarily, it does not prevent him from becoming the best person to blame.

Cao Hong's face was extremely ugly. He stopped such scolding, but still did not express the main responsibility.

Even if there is a secret passage under the central army tent, looking at the fire, Cao Sheng is most likely not to survive. Not only Cao Sheng will not survive, but many Cao soldiers in the central army camp will also be buried here, and they will be turned into fireworks together with the Cao army camp.

"General, retreat!" The confidant guard said on the side, "It's not the fault of the war. This... Even if we go up now, what can we do? The Hussars have already formed their forces, and our few people... are just a drop in the bucket! Why not retreat before the chaos spreads here, and burn these rear camp supplies according to the plan, on the one hand, we can cut off the Hussars' pursuit, and on the other hand, we will not leave these things to the enemy...'

The benefit of a confidant is that he can say things for the master that the master cannot say.

Indeed, the fire in the central camp started in advance, which neither disrupted the Hussars' rhythm nor caused much damage to the Hussars. Instead, the Cao army itself swallowed tons of critical hits, and was shattered into a sea of ​​fire.

Now even if Cao Hong risked his life, he might not be able to save anything.

What's more, Cao Hong was injured.

If he was not injured, Cao Hong might still have some blood and feel that he could fight for this last chance to turn the tables, but now all the chips are lost, leaving only this one in his hand.

Should he leave with the last chip and wait for the next bet, or should he just throw the last chip in? !

Even though most people knew that even if he threw the last chip in, he still couldn't win...

All eyes were on Cao Hong's face.

If it was just chips, most people would throw them away. At worst, they would go home and sleep after losing everything. But what if the chips also included his own life?

Cao Hong was a gambler, but he hadn't reached the level of a gambler, or even a bad gambler.

After a while, Cao Hong drew out his sword, cut a cut on his palm, and smeared the blood on his face, "Qiuqi! I swear I will never live with you!"
