Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 961
Huang Xu's side gathered Dianman's soldiers and horses, but there were only 1 people. However, as the forward soldiers, most of them were cavalry. This is a big advantage of Huang Xu's side. Before departure, Gao Shun dispatched The soldiers and horses given to Huang Xu were all elites in the army, and the troops Dianman and the others brought were not bad. In order to find out the enemy's situation, both Gongsun Xu and Gao Shun were willing to spend money.

As the number of Jiangdong Army outside the battalion increased, Huang Xu's face became more and more ugly. Judging from the number of torches, the Jiangdong Army may have about 8 to 1 people. Facing seven or eight times as many opponents, and the enemy general is most likely to be Sun Ce or Zhou Yu, no matter how confident Huang Xu is, he can't help but feel a little worried in this situation.

"It's impossible for the enemy to have so many people." Huang Xu told his subordinates: "Pass the order to the other three generals, don't be frightened by the appearance of the enemy, just let them stick to the camp, don't break through easily, Not to mention messy cooperation."

There were indeed a lot of enemy torches outside the camp, but after the initial worry faded away, Huang Xu also discovered some problems.The enemy army has a lot of torches, but they are always waving flags and shouting outside. Moreover, the enemy army on the side he is responsible for seems to have only 5000 people, which means that the total number of enemy troops in the four camp gates should be more than 2.

"It's just a bluff, hehe, Bo Fu, you're still adept at using tactics." Huang Xu looked at the battle at the gate of the camp and sneered, "I have the fortifications of the camp as my support, so it doesn't matter if you have a lot of soldiers and horses under your command. There is only one night, and there are two or three hours before dawn, we will compete to see who can persevere."

Outside Camp I, soldiers of the Jiangdong Army are carrying shields to clean up the fortifications such as rejecting horses outside the Han Army camp. Many people are also carrying sandbags to fill up the trenches dug by the Han Army. Some soldiers have already approached the Han Army camp. Within a distance of fifty steps, the two sides have already started shooting.

However, if this kind of small-scale shooting is now, the Han army may suffer a bit. They are concentrated in the camp and the torches are brightly lit. The Jiangdong army outside can easily find the target. For the Han army archers, the outside The small group of Jiangdong Army archers were hiding in the dark. They could only roughly judge the enemy's position from the direction of the arrows, and then counterattack. In this way, they must be in a passive situation.

"Pass me to the general and save the arrows." Huang Xu is also aware of this problem. He doesn't want to waste arrows in vain. The military supplies in the camp are not too much. If there is a lot of waste in the early stage, I'm afraid it may not be possible Stay till dawn.

"Report,,,,,," a school lieutenant ran to Sun Ce and shouted: "My lord, the enemy's fortifications have been cleared, only the fortifications and ravines within thirty steps from the enemy camp still exist. "

"Hmph, it doesn't matter, let's attack." Sun Ce ordered: "The gun and shield formation is in front, and the archers hold the ground. Soldiers, our army has an absolute advantage, kill..."

"Here we come..." Huang Xu nodded, looking at the increasingly clear enemy formation outside the camp, he said: "Leave a thousand cavalry as a reserve team, and the rest of the soldiers are divided into three groups to take turns to defend. The camp, in addition, selected two hundred cavalry for me, each carrying five grenades, waiting for orders at any time, and conveying my arrangement to the other three generals, so that they can adapt accordingly."

The fierce battle has already begun, and Jiangdong Army soldiers rushed up wave after wave. Although they have an advantage in numbers, can the Han Army be defeated so easily?

In the Gaoshun army camp, teams of soldiers were stepping up their patrols. The enemy soldiers who had appeared outside the camp before had been repelled. He was captured by Gao Shun's troops overnight, and those who led the disturbance were executed on the spot. The powerful families and wealthy households in the city are now afraid to go out. At this time, as long as Gao Shun is a general, anyone may turn around. .

"It seems that the main attack direction is not on our side." Gao Shun put down the battle report in his hand and ordered: "Choose five thousand step riders and go to support Huang Xu. It's almost dawn. I hope they have supported them. In addition, give me Contact Ju Yi, I want to know his exact location, I lost contact with him after a night of turmoil."

The night gradually turned white, and the Jiangdong army failed to take down the camp of the Han army after a night of fierce fighting. Huang Xu and the others still commanded calmly in the camp. Although the battle was fierce, the camp was still in their hands. Huang Xu's side was not counted. defeat.

"Huang Xu, you really have a trick." Looking at the retreating subordinates, Sun Ce said angrily: "Every time you are about to break through the camp, you send a team of cavalry to charge back, and use that sharp weapon to force our army back. , Awesome, hmph, I know you still have reserve soldiers, and so do I, or else let’s compare and see who can last till the end.”

When Sun Ce was about to mobilize 5000 reserve troops to enter the field, a scout ran over on his horse and shouted: "It's not good, my lord, a group of enemy troops appeared behind our army, and they are attacking our army first. From the looks of it, there are about [-] enemy troops, and there are more soldiers coming from the rear."

"It's impossible for the reinforcements to come so soon." Sun Ce said in surprise: "No matter how good the high math is, it's impossible to send reinforcements overnight. My arrangement can hold him back for at least two or three hours. , This, did they have a long-awaited arrangement, or is it just their plan,,,,,, "

"My lord, it's almost dawn, you can give the order..." The generals next to me are also anxious at this time. They need a precise order whether to continue to attack or retreat temporarily. It is also clear that it is impossible to break through the enemy camp within an hour if they count the reserve team. No one knows how many sharp weapons the enemy has in their hands. More importantly, the enemy Almost all of them are cavalry now. If they all break through, they will not be able to resist.

"Forget it, things that are destined cannot be changed by humans." Sun Ce sighed, "Let's send an order to withdraw the troops. We must not be entangled by them, otherwise we don't know how many soldiers will be lost here. I will lead [-] cavalry to break the rear." , you retreat first."

The rest of the generals wanted to say something, but Sun Ce stopped them all. At this time, there is no need to say more.

Seeing that the enemy army retreated quickly outside the camp, Dianman and the others pleaded for orders to pursue them, but they were stopped by Huang Xu. The enemy army came and retreated strangely. He didn't want any troubles at this juncture.

"Who is coming? Don't get close to the camp, otherwise we will shoot arrows..."

"I am Ju Yishiye under the command of General Gao Shun..." A group of soldiers approached the camp and shouted: "General Huang Xu, please come and answer, our reinforcements have arrived..."

"It turned out to be Ju Yi, hehe, it really is a rare general..." After confirming the identity of the other party, Huang Xu immediately joined Ju Yi. Who would have thought that this battle would end in such a situation.
