Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 489
The sky was like an overturned inkstone, and the thick and mellow night covered up all the shining things, and it was lifeless and dead black.

In Cao Ying, countless torches flickered, flickering.It seems that the stars have run to the ground, but it seems that the sky and the earth have fallen apart.The night wind was humid and dull, although it was slight but not soft, it was very uncomfortable to blow on the face.It seems that there is a chilling air permeating the world, floating in the night wind, or lurking in the hearts of every Cao Ying soldier.

Outside the large tent of the Chinese army, two guards of Xiahou Dun stood outside the camp gate in fear and exhaustion. Suddenly, they heard a loud noise inside the tent.But for this shocking change, the two guards did not offend and barge in, so as not to get themselves into trouble.

Because they know that an urgent military discussion is going on in the Chinese military tent at this moment.

"How did I get into such a situation?! I have no heart to fight, and I am unwilling to retreat. This battle is really aggrieved!" Cao Ren angrily faced the bronze mirror that was kicked over by him, like a head that had been kicked over by him. The enraged bison wanted to find the next object to vent his anger.

"Because we are too arrogant and misjudged the situation in Puyang." Xiahou Dun, who was sitting upright, did not lose his composure like Cao Ren, but the sudden jump between his brows also showed that he was suffering from turmoil in his heart Unwilling: "We underestimated that young emperor, and fell into his rhythm from the very beginning."

"Rhythm? There are such things in war." Cao Xiu, with his arms hanging, looked gloomy, but he couldn't understand Xiahou Dun's words.

"Of course." Xiahoudun sighed, and silently recalled the battle from beginning to end, before concluding: "For you, you may not feel this way, but when the battle escalates to a higher level, you will Discovering that fighting is actually a living art. It is full of majestic momentum, amazing courage, clever changes and genius creativity. If you can understand it like a poem, you will be fighting Overwhelmed by the leader."

After saying this sentence, Xiahoudun sighed deeply, and then said: "Because the battle cannot be modified, it cannot be repeated, it can be changed at any time, and it is full of fantasy. Only you can't think of it, and no one can't do it. From the beginning, We saw that the leader of the battle was Lu Bu, and we actually began to fall into the rhythm of the emperor step by step."

"Why?" Cao Xiu still didn't understand. The more Xiahou Dun praised Liu Xie, what he got in return was not Cao Xiu's admiration, but Cao Xiu's dissatisfaction.

"There is no reason!" Cao Ren was also attracted by the topic at this time, and he turned to Cao Xiu and asked, "What was your first reaction to Puyang City when you saw Lu Bu go to battle?"

"Naturally, the Son of Heaven has not yet resolved the civil strife in Puyang, and he knows nothing about military affairs, so he ordered Lu Bu to fight..." As soon as the words came out, Cao Xiu suddenly understood something, and his face instantly became ugly.

"That's right." Xiahou Dun nodded, satisfied with Cao Xiu's potential and vision, and continued to coax: "Afterwards, when you see Lu Bu ordering that young phoenix battalion to fight, what would you think of?"

"Naturally, Lü Bu was already insane and arrogant to the extreme, and that's why he sent a group of women into battle." Cao Xiu answered cautiously, and at the same time, he had to allocate some energy to think about the feelings outside the topic, which made him feel very difficult. And benefit a lot.

"Faced with such a situation, we purposely pretended to be defeated and hoped that Lu Lingqi would win the battle. At that time, we would use this female army as a bait, and set up an ambush to injure Lu Bu's army. This is a good move. As you can see now, The crown prince didn't fall for it at all, from the very beginning, what he showed us was exactly what we wanted to see!" Having said this, Xiahou Dun's tone couldn't help raising his voice, but the frustration in his heart couldn't help but follow.

"After pretending to be defeated, Lu Lingqi did not attack as arrogantly as we expected. Instead, the Han army took advantage of our complacency and mobilized the Han army to attack! Our generals thought they had a plan, but the soldiers in the camp only knew that we even had a group of women. Haven't fought before, facing such a large-scale attack by the Han army, is their morale dropping again and again?!"

Recalling the dejected soldiers outside the camp, Cao Xiu had to admit that what these two said was not wrong at all.At this time, he suddenly understood, and said in astonishment: "So, at this moment, I can't advance or retreat, and my hands are restrained, so that the Han army has completely taken the initiative... Sure enough, we were indeed brought into the rhythm of the emperor. Can passively defend. This, this battle is indeed rhythmic..."

"This is not the most frightening thing. The most frightening thing is that we know that the Han army will make moves tonight, but we have no way to deal with it. This kind of embarrassment is what we are most... Sigh!" Xiahou Dun punched the case. For a few days, the depression in the past few days was rarely relieved.

But when the Chinese army tents were still clueless, Xiahou Dun suddenly heard a commotion outside the camp.The hidden anger between his eyebrows couldn't help jumping even more, he was so angry that he shouted outside the tent: "The military camp is important, no noise is allowed, who is so disregarding military discipline?!"

The curtain was hastily lifted, and a general was terrified, and said to Xiahou Dun: "General, outside the camp, outside the camp..."

Seeing the man's flustered eyes flashing, Xiahou Dun couldn't help feeling annoyed, and said angrily, "What happened outside the camp? The military discipline is like a mountain, don't the soldiers who supervise the law eat nothing?"

The military discipline of the Han Dynasty was harsh, and the military discipline of Cao Ying was even more severe.Cao Cao himself had the practical thinking of the Legalists, and he led troops to slaughter Xuzhou, so he naturally knew the horror of releasing the animal nature.Therefore, while releasing his animal nature, he also restrained him with harsh laws, so that Cao Jun's ferocity and violence could only be vented on the battlefield, which undoubtedly greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the army.

But facing Xiahoudun's question, the general became even more hesitant. Finally, when Xiahoudun was angry, he mustered up the courage and blurted out the information: "General! Ghosts and ghosts appeared outside the camp demanding their lives. All the soldiers are in panic! "

"What?!" Xia Houdun stood up suddenly. As a ruthless general, he didn't know how many innocent people died under his command. He didn't believe in such absurd things. For a while, he was so angry that he didn't know how to reprimand the general.

Seeing Xiahou Dun being so angry, the general was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, and replied tremblingly: "General, the last general doesn't know what's going on! I just heard the mountain ghost howling, which made people My heart was broken, but then a woman in white with disheveled hair appeared, babbling and saying in a deep voice that she was the innocent soul of the people in Xuzhou who were massacred by our army, and came to demand my life!"

"Fart!" Cao Ren was so mad at this moment that he cursed, "Aren't you a pig? Xuzhou is still a hundred miles away from Puyang. Even if there are ghosts, they can still chase them all the way to Puyang?!"

"But we are in Xuzhou after all, we have killed a lot... ah!" The general was about to say more, but he suddenly raised his head, but saw a cold light passing in front of his eyes.Immediately afterwards, Xiahou Dun put away his knife and shouted to the guards outside the tent: "This person spread rumors and disturbed the morale of the army. I have already decapitated him! Come on, hang his head on the tooth flag as a warning to others!"

Having said all this, Xiahou Dun strode out of the tent, he wanted to see what kind of tricks the emperor of the Han Dynasty had come up with!
As soon as he got out of the camp, Xiahou Dun heard ghosts crying and howling wolves in the distance. Under the dark night, in the forest, under the bleak moonlight, there were vague and strange shadows.Those voices sounded resentful and shrill, but after carefully excluding the whistling of the south wind, one could vaguely hear those sobbing and shouting: "Give me back my life, give me my life back..."

And outside the camp, there was a woman whose skirt was dragging to the floor, dressed in white, with disheveled hair, and was blown by the howling south wind, revealing her pale and bloodless face!
One person, dressed in white, stood quietly at a distance of two hundred steps from the brightly lit camp gate.Accompanied by the whirling shadows of the surrounding trees and gusts of wind, Cao Jun, who was already in a low mood, suddenly felt terrified.

But Xiahoudun just looked at the "female ghost" quietly, and smiled contemptuously at the corner of his mouth: "Huh, pretending to be a ghost!" Then, he strode forward, stood in front of Cao Jun, and shouted to the female ghost: "I am a soldier of this battalion! Commander, the girl showed up tonight, could it be that she wants to seek justice from us?"

The female ghost wept and was speechless, she just moved her lotus steps and walked slowly towards Xiahou Dun.All Cao Jun's eyes were focused on the female ghost, and suddenly they sneered and became bold. It turned out that the female ghost did not turn into a ghost and pounce on it, but slowly loosened the knot in her waist. It seemed that It was as if he wanted to sacrifice himself to Xiahou Dun.

"Sure enough, the female ghost is still afraid of the wicked..."

"That's right, the military camp is very important, the gods and ghosts Biyi, how can our tens of thousands of iron-blooded men with strong yang energy be suppressed by a female ghost?"

"No, look at this female ghost, so quickly... ah!!"

Cao Bing, who was speaking, hadn't shown a lewd expression yet, and when he was expecting to see the woman's full and attractive breasts, he suddenly saw that the female ghost was really half-dressed and her breasts were exposed!However, the place that should have been glittering and translucent and alluring is not so tall and tall, but a dense white bone!

At the same time, the wind suddenly became fierce, and the female ghost suddenly flew into the air, screaming that almost pierced the eardrums, and went to Xiahou Dun for her life!

At this moment, not to mention those generals of the Cao army who were already frightened, even Xiahou Dun, who had always remained calm before the collapse of Mount Tai, suddenly took a step back and shouted: "Let the arrows, let them go!"
