Reborn in the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 222: Boost Morale
text
Xiahou Dun slashed out with a knife, and his momentum sank like a mountain.At the critical moment, Zhang Fei picked up the big knife with the end of the spear, picked the blade aside, then turned his hand, straightened the eight snake spears, and stabbed out quickly, like thunder and lightning.
…………
The two fought fiercely with swords and spears.From a distance, I could only see the flashing cold light, and only heard loud shouts.
The two have been fighting for more than a hundred rounds and are still tied.Just when everyone thought this war would be endless, a sudden change occurred on the battlefield. [
After a loud noise like torrential rain, Xiahou Dun's war horse suddenly fell down, and he and his horse fell heavily on the grass.
Seeing this scene, the shouts from both sides stopped abruptly.The soldiers on Cao Cao's side were all pale, showing expressions of disbelief.It's no wonder they are like this, thinking that Xiahou Dun is definitely one of the best generals under Cao Cao's command, and all the soldiers of the Cao army, including Cao Cao, never thought that Xiahou Dun would be defeated one day.
Just when Cao Cao's army was in a daze, the Zhengbei cavalry suddenly yelled.They looked very excited.
However, Zhang Fei did not show the slightest excitement, but looked serious.
Suddenly, Xiahou Dun stood up unexpectedly, but he was not dead.Xiahou Dun looked a little embarrassed, but he didn't seem to be injured.
Seeing this scene at the gate, Cao Cao couldn't help but look happy, and then showed anxiety, and quickly ordered Xia Houyuan and Xu Chu beside him: "Quick! You two attack together, and you must rescue Yuan Rang!"
The two of them had this intention for a long time, and when they heard Cao Cao's order, they immediately got on their horses and led the army out of the gate.
"I'm defeated! Kill me!", Xiahou Dun looked at Zhang Fei and said calmly.
Zhang Fei laughed loudly and said, "Today's result doesn't count! I'll take your life again in the future!" Then Zhang Fei glanced at Cao Jun who was rushing over, and said, "The person who rescued you has come, and I will also kill you!" It's time to leave. There will be a time later!"
After finishing speaking, ignoring Xiahou Dun's reaction, he turned the horse's head and shouted: "Let's go back!".Immediately, hundreds of riders rolled up a cloud of dust and left Cao Jun behind.
After a while, Xiahouyuan and Xu Chu led thousands of horsemen to Xiahoudun's side.The main purpose of the two was to save Xiahou Dun, so they did not lead the army to chase Zhang Fei.
"Brother, are you okay!" Xia Houyuan jumped off his horse and asked eagerly.Xiahouyuan is Xiahoudun's younger brother. Xiahouyuan has always admired Xiahoudun, so he is called "big brother".
Xiahou Dun shook his head, looking at the faint back in the distance with his eyes, his expression seemed a little complicated.
Zhang Fei's challenge this time, only beheaded one of the opponent's generals and defeated one of the opponent's generals. His record was not very satisfactory, but the basic goal was achieved. Cao Jun's morale was hit particularly hard.
As soon as Zhang Fei returned to Huguan, Tian Feng greeted him.
"Congratulations to the general who won the flag!" Tian Feng smiled and said to Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei laughed and asked, "How does Mr. Tian Feng know that I have won?"
Tian Feng smiled and said: "The general looks happy, and all the soldiers are also excited. The answer is self-evident."
Zhang Fei smiled, walked up to the tower together with Tian Feng, leaned against the wall and looked at Cao Jun's barracks hazy in the morning mist, and said, "Although I won, I won by luck."
Tian Feng couldn't help being slightly surprised, so he asked: "What does the general mean by this statement? Victory is victory, and defeat is defeat. How can there be a fluke?"
Zhang Fei shook his head, with a look of reminiscence on his face, and said: "Just now when I challenged Cao Jun, I beheaded one of the opponent's generals, and then a general ran out of Cao's camp. This Cao Jun's general is Xia Houdun. Mr. Tian Feng knows this people?"
Tian Feng frowned slightly and nodded, "I've heard of this person. Xiahoudun is the descendant of Xiahouying, and he is of the same family as Cao Cao. This person has been practicing martial arts since childhood, and his bravery is extraordinary. He is one of the best generals under Cao Cao's command. Has the general defeated him? Or killed him?!", Tian Feng's expression became a little excited.It's no wonder he is like this, Xiahou Dun's status and influence among Cao Jun are quite high,
His defeat will severely hit Cao Jun's morale.
"Although I defeated this man, I didn't kill him. In fact, Xiahou Dun's martial arts are not inferior to mine. I was able to defeat him because of luck!" Zhang Fei said solemnly, listening to Zhang Fei's tone, It is obvious that Xiahou Dun is highly valued.
Seeing Zhang Fei's high opinion of Xiahou Dun, Tian Feng couldn't help feeling strange, so he asked Zhang Fei, "Why did the general say that the victory over Xiahou Dun was a fluke?"
Zhang Fei thought about it for a while, and then recounted what happened just now.
It turned out that in the last round of Zhang Fei's fight with Xiahou Dun, Zhang Fei stabbed Xiahou Dun's horse with a spear and knocked Xiahou Dun's horse down. Coincidentally avoided.As a result, after a fierce confrontation, Xiahou Dun fell to the ground with both men and horses.
In other words, although Zhang Fei won, he did not win because of his martial arts, but because of luck. If Zhang Fei hadn't been lucky, the two should have fallen to the ground at the same time.It is for this reason that Zhang Fei said that he was lucky.
After listening to Zhang Fei's narration, Tian Feng suddenly nodded.Then he frowned and said in a slightly reproachful tone: "General, you could have killed Xiahou Dun, but you didn't! This is leaving trouble behind!"
Zhang Fei raised his brows, and laughed loudly: "My old Zhang Sheng wants to win openly, and will never take advantage of others! The next time we fight again, I will definitely behead Xiahou Dun!"
Tian Feng was suddenly at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.As a counselor, he really can't understand the thinking of generals like Zhang Fei.
Although Zhang Fei said that he was lucky to win against Xiahou Dun, the impact of the battle between the two of them has not changed because of this.
The banner of Cao Jun's barracks hangs vigorously on the flagpole.Affected by Xiahou Dun's defeat, the morale of Cao's army became very unoptimistic.Cao Jun's big tent was also gloomy.
Cao Cao sat high on the main seat, his face was gloomy, and he was silent.Guo Jia on the side frowned tightly, as if thinking about something.All the generals under the tent also looked downcast.
Among all the generals, the one with the ugliest face was Xiahou Dun.Because his defeat had a serious impact on Cao Jun's morale.Although Cao Cao didn't blame him for this, he still felt very uncomfortable.
Xiahou Dun didn't tell the truth about the situation at that time, because an arrogant general like him would never say those words that seemed to be sophistry.
"My lord, Dun was defeated by the enemy before the battle, which damaged the army's prestige! Please punish me, my lord!" Xiahou Dun suddenly knelt down in the center of the big tent.
Seeing this, Cao Cao hurriedly stepped down and comforted him, "Yuan Rang doesn't have to do this! Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs, and the defeat in this battle is not your fault!"
"My lord!" Xiahou Dun was moved in his heart, looking excitedly at Cao Cao who helped him up with both hands.
"My lord! When we fight again in the future, Dun will definitely clear up his past shame! Cut off Zhang Fei's head to repay the lord!" Xiahou Dun clasped his fists at Cao Cao, his face full of determination.
Cao Cao smiled gratifiedly, patted the back of Xiahoudun's hand and said warmly: "Yuan Rang is brave, I believe he will be able to kill Zhang Fei for shame!".In fact, Cao Cao said this to comfort Xiahou Dun. In Cao Cao's heart, he didn't think that Xiahou Dun could beat Zhang Fei. After all, he didn't see the real reason for Xiahou Dun's defeat just now. [
After comforting Xiahou Dun, Cao Cao returned to the main seat and sat down, then turned to Guo Jia who was beside him, "Feng Xiao, what should our army do next?"
Guo Jia bowed his fists to Cao Cao, and said: "Our army's morale is currently depressed, and the first thing we need to do is to revive it. Otherwise, if we attack Xiongguan with a morale-depressed army, regardless of whether we can take it or not, the losses will be unimaginable!"
Cao Cao nodded thoughtfully, and then asked: "Then how can our army regain morale?"
A trace of unbearableness flashed in Guo Jia's eyes, and he replied: "My lord, please send an order to the entire army. After the pass is approved, the entire army will loot several counties! Use women and goods to re-stimulate the morale of the army!"
Cao Cao couldn't help being startled, and then his face showed embarrassment, and he lowered his head to think.When the generals under the account heard these words, many people revealed
Excited, it can be seen that Guo Jia's strategy is still very effective.
Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao quietly, waiting for Cao Cao's decision.Although Guo Jia offered this plan, Guo Jia actually didn't want Cao Cao to adopt it in his heart.
At this time, Cao Cao felt hesitant.He knew that this strategy would be very effective, but he didn't want to use it, not because he pityed those ordinary people, but because he was worried that if he did so, it would be difficult to calm down the hearts of the people after he occupied Bingzhou.
After hesitating for a long time, Cao Cao suddenly showed a fierce and decisive look.Seeing this situation, Guo Jia knew that he had already made a decision, and he also knew what his decision was.
I saw Cao Cao looked around at the crowd, and then ordered: "Yuan Rang and Zhong Kang, you two immediately send an order to the whole army, whichever general captures Gu Pass first, I will make him the prefect of Shangdang; , allowing the entire army to loot Yangxian, Pingyang, and Jiangxian counties for seven days, and the entire army will not be sanctioned for anything they do in these three counties within seven days!"
"Yes!" The two promised excitedly, and then they left the big tent to pass the order. ! ~!
Xiahou Dun slashed out with a knife, and his momentum sank like a mountain.At the critical moment, Zhang Fei picked up the big knife with the end of the spear, picked the blade aside, then turned his hand, straightened the eight snake spears, and stabbed out quickly, like thunder and lightning.
