Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 491 Accident and Inevitability

Xiahou Dun watched helplessly in the chaos in the camp, and a terrible shadow flashed across his mind in an instant, causing him to be instantly stripped of the titles of "Veteran Cao Jun" and "General Feng Lie", and suddenly thrown back to his first entry. The kind of helpless panic in the battlefield.

In that year, Xiahou Dun had already matured in terms of mind and ability.What is lacking is nothing but the experience of marching and combat and the calmness of commanding the army.He thought to himself that over the years, whether he was in command or fighting under Cao Cao's command, he had already made up for that disgraceful incident, but when he recalled it now, he suddenly realized that even though he was experienced, calm and resourceful, he was still in the heart of the soldiers. Before the chaos, everything was so useless.

That year was the first year of Han Chuping, that is, in the fifth year, the princes from all walks of life gathered troops to attack Dong Zhuo.At that time, Cao Cao was indignant that the princes from all walks of life were drinking and singing, talking loudly but not being able to serve as a king. Angrily, he raised troops to pursue Dong Zhuo who moved his capital to Chang'an, but he never wanted to be ambushed by Dong Zhuo's general Xu Rong and killed him.

In that era when there are soldiers who have power, and the boss is rough with his arms, Cao Cao knows that what he gets in return for his defeat is not just the cynicism of those living princes, but will be completely excluded from the sequence of princes fighting for hegemony.As a result, he chose to enlist in Yangzhou, hoping to turn over his book and fight again when he came back.

However, during that conscription, Xiahou Dun, who accompanied Cao Cao, saw the horror of Ying Xiao with his own eyes.The Yangzhou soldiers were nostalgic for their homeland and didn't want to go to the Central Plains with Cao Cao to die. So, one night in late autumn, at the place of Longkang, because of a soldier's screaming at night, the entire barracks became a sea of ​​chaos.

All the soldiers seemed to be crazy, fighting desperately to kill Pao Ze beside him.It seemed that standing in front of them at that moment was not a living fellow from the same country, but an enemy who had to be killed quickly!

At that moment, Xiahou Dun saw with his own eyes that Cao Cao straddled Huang Feidian with his claws and held the gorgeous Yitian sword to kill dozens of people in a row, but he still couldn't get any peace.Even at the end of the chaos, if Xiahou Dun hadn't opened a wooden spear for Cao Cao, Cao Cao's life might have ended that night.

At dawn that night, Cao Cao looked at the ten to seven or eight troops, tears streaming down his face.Xiahoudun clearly remembered that at dawn that day, after Cao Cao finished crying, he finally smiled at Xiahoudun sadly and said, "Yuan Rang, I have the ambition to serve the country, but I don't know how to lead the army, what a crime!"

Xiahou Dun heard what Cao Cao meant, and he clearly said: Ignorance and incompetence are a crime in troubled times!

After that, Cao Cao, who had no soldiers and no right to speak, could only take refuge in Yuan Shao's tent.It wasn't until a few years later that the Yellow Turbans in Qingyan and Yanzhou were in turmoil again, and he did everything possible to break away from Yuan Shao's control and rushed to the south of the river to start his own business.

Unexpectedly, five years later, this scene appeared before Xiahou Dun's eyes again.He really never thought that such a nightmare could reappear before his eyes!
Xia Houdun carefully recalled that scene at the beginning, and then realized that the roar of the camp at that time was just an appearance, and the real reason was that the soldiers in Yangzhou did not want to die in battle in a foreign land.Therefore, he attributed the incident to an objective accident.But the chaotic scenes of vendettas and killings now made him clearly realize that all of this was not accidental at all.

The seeds of Yingxiao have been rooted in the deep soil of each barracks from beginning to end.It's just that some seeds are dry and the soil is poor, and there is no incentive for growth and explosion.But tonight in my own camp, someone with ulterior motives suddenly gave the seeds all the necessary factors to grow and explode.

The guilt of slaughter buried deep in his heart, the fear of ignorant ghosts, the strict military law and the oppression of barracks factions that he can't see at all.All of these are the nutrients needed for the outbreak of Ying Xiao.Then, just under the lame drama of the illusory and even ridiculous ghost revenge scene, it was instantly ignited.

"It was you, you were the one who forced me to kill! I'm going to kill you first for those innocent souls today?!" A Cao Ying recruit screamed at a corporal leader with a ferocious expression, but the spear in his hand hadn't stabbed yet. As soon as he came out, he was beheaded by the corporal leader.

"Idiot, there are no ghosts in this world. In this troubled world, we are actually evil ghosts!" The corporal raised his knife and roared, his face twisted, as if he was intimidated, and he seemed to be accusing.

"Then you, go down and explain to those innocent souls!" Corporal Chief just roared, but he was caught off guard, and was stabbed by the soldiers rushing up from all around in an instant.Then the spears were pulled out from the body of the corporal leader at the same time, and three or four Cao soldiers with blood-red eyes stared at the other middle- and lower-level generals at the same time.

Such a scene was staged in various places in Cao Ying.Even though Xiahoudun had learned a lesson once, but faced with the scene, he only had red eyes, and with tears in his eyes, he ordered to the guards around him: "Sing the golden flag, order all soldiers to lay down their weapons, and then order the tigers and leopards to ride, and there will be more soldiers." Those who do not obey the military law will be shot to death!"

Even in times of chaos, there is loyalty.Right now, although the outbreak of Ying Xiao has been hasty, the contagion is astonishing.But today is still different from the past. Xiahoudun still has at least half of the confidence that he can suppress the camp roar: Unlike the situation where Long Kang Cao Cao and Xiahoudun only had dozens of personal guards, in today's Cao Ying, Xiahoudun can at least let three One-third of the troops are at their own disposal.

These include Xiahou Dun's [-] plays, Cao Ren's [-] plays, and Cao Xiu's less than [-] plays.In addition, there are a thousand tiger and leopard cavalry, all of whom are the backbone of the cao army who will carry out the orders of the general no matter what the situation is.

With [-], one-third of the soldiers, against the nearly [-] rebels, it seems that the number is not superior.But this is not impossible, after all, Ying Xiao is just a restless carnival, as long as there is a powerful force that is more cruel and cold-blooded than them, the madness that is stimulated and disordered will be suppressed immediately.

Of course, this requires paying the price of blood and death!But Xiahoudun also knew that this time was not the time to count the price at all. If he hadn't cut his wrists so quickly and decisively, what he would get would be the result of a complete collapse.

As a result, the sound of golden gongs in the entire barracks was sounded quickly and intensively. Countless messengers stood on the sentry post or on the high platform, repeating Xiahou Dun's military orders at the top of their voices. The silent black flag of silence was hoisted high.Teams of tiger and leopard cavalry roared and rushed, and the neat formations of one side were either waiting for protection, or they were unswervingly striding forward to pick and kill the chaotic soldiers who dared to move a step!

It seemed that such a roar could be suppressed by Xiahou Dun in half an hour.

However, Liu Xie in the forest watched this scene and couldn't help laughing: "This group of idiots, do you really think that I really came to play games with them?"

Xu Huang, who was already straddling the horse at this moment, couldn't help but smile, and said flatteringly to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, the general will always follow you around!"

Liu Xie showed a complimenting look to Xu Huang implicitly and reservedly, and then said to Lu Lingqi who was dumbfounded: "What are you still doing in a daze? Get on your horse and prepare to attack the camp! By the way, you don't want to go to those women soldiers, They are all good girls, and if you see a scene where intestines are pierced, limbs are dissected, and blood is splattered, you will not be responsible for any psychological shadow left behind."

Lu Lingqi reflexively wanted to argue with Liu Xie, but as soon as the words came to her lips, what she said was: "Could it be that you planned all this in advance?"

"Of course." Liu Xie gave Lu Lingqi a very idiot look, and explained: "You think that last night, the Han army was kept awake and attacked three times to scare them? The real intention is not to play tricks tonight. Just ready?

"Then, do you think pretending to be a ghost is just for fun?" Liu Xie spat out the grass in his mouth, stepped on the snorting Zhaoye Bai Liangju, and smiled: "The real intention is to give these people who have never experienced ghosts and ghosts incidents." The Cao soldiers were pleasantly surprised. Of course, the 'surprise' belongs to them, and the 'joy' belongs to us..."

"Then how do you conclude that after such a plan, they will definitely change their camp tonight?" Lu Lingqi half understood. She could understand Liu Xie's painstaking efforts to deal with Cao Jun, but she didn't understand where Liu Xie's self-confidence came from.

"Who told me that they must know that their camp has changed?" Liu Xie didn't understand Lu Lingqi's thinking at this time, but when he thought about it, he couldn't help laughing arrogantly: "Oh, you are asking this... Of course I don't Knowing that they will have a coup tonight, let all the soldiers gather and stand by, but it’s just to be prepared. All I know is that they can always be used if they are always on hand. After all, they won’t make a coup tonight, and I still have other ways to continue to torture them. Isn’t the coup just It must be!"
