The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 443 Start to fight back

As if to verify Dongfang Sheng's words, after Tuobahan and the others got together, a large group of Wei Jun immediately chased after him.

Through the reconnaissance of the scouts, it was discovered that the banner Wei Jun was flying was Xiahou Dun of the Eight Tiger Riders, and the rest of the Eight Tiger Riders were basically in place.

There are eight tiger riders in the front, and the mysterious middle-aged captain in the back pursues them. There are not enough soldiers and horses, and food and grass are not enough.

After Dongfang Sheng counted the number of people, he found that the number of troops was less than 4, and a full [-] horses were killed in this raid.

The situation this time was extremely dangerous. The bold strategy of the lone army was inherently risky, and Dongfang Sheng pushed himself into a desperate situation.

However, if Dongfang Sheng does not take such risks in the current situation, once Cao Pi stabilizes the interior, it will be more difficult to attack Cao Wei in the future.

This was an unsolvable problem.

At this point, Dongfang Sheng was no longer depressed, but called all the generals of the Suwei battalion to hold a small military meeting.

"If we are unlucky this time, we may be wiped out." Dongfang Sheng said the worst result at the beginning.

"We swear to fight a bloody road to protect His Majesty!"

"We are willing to contain the Wei army for His Majesty"

"..."

Before Dongfang Sheng could finish speaking, a group of generals shouted excitedly.

The generals of the Suwei camp were originally Dongfang Sheng's soldiers. Needless to say, their relationship with Dongfang Sheng, like Ba Xiaowei and Badao, and later Sima Zhao and Tuobahan, all of them were related to Dongfang Sheng. Sheng has the experience of living and dying together, and such a relationship cannot be established by just relying on a title.

Looking at the reaction of the generals under his command, Dongfang Sheng's eyes were slightly moist, which reminded him of those brothers who died in his mercenary career in the past, and each of them treated him like this.

"I, Dongfang Sheng, am I a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? Even if it is death this time, we will make a big fuss!" Dongfang Sheng waved his hands and said, "I decided to start tomorrow. We will counterattack them. I want to see Look, is it their Wei army that is stronger or the army I trained is stronger!"

"Damn Wei Jun!"

"Kill Cao Pi, the father-killing and traitorous son!"

"..."

The generals below also roared with enthusiasm.

However, among the many generals, Badao was not overly excited, but rather worried.

Dongfang Sheng sighed from the bottom of his heart: The food and grass are gone. If we retreat at this time, we will definitely die. Rather than being hunted down and killed, it is better to counterattack vigorously. Brothers, please forgive me.

When Dongfang Sheng first joined the army, he once heard some veterans who had been on the battlefield say, if you run out of bullets, please don’t turn around and run away, because once you run away, the one who dies must be the fastest, and the enemy is facing your back It must be much easier to shoot a gun straight at you.

At night, the camp where Dongfang Sheng was stationed was full of delicious food. For tomorrow's counterattack, Dongfang Sheng decided to eat all the remaining food, and then let all the soldiers have a good rest for a night, so that they can have full energy and strength to come To cope with tomorrow's counterattack.

And the encirclement trend of the Wei army has also begun to take shape. Xiahou Dun and the mysterious captain tacitly narrowed the encirclement.

It's just that in the middle of the night, the weather was not good, and it rained heavily, as if someone poured a water tank directly above your head when it rained.

Such heavy rain directly hindered Xiahou Dun's march, and the road began to become muddy. Even if Xiahou Dun ordered to pave the road with straw, it would not help. Some thunderbolt cars barely moved forward with the wooden boards in the middle, but because of the heavy rain, Xiahou Dun finally had to stop to find a place to shelter from the rain.

The same situation also happened to the mysterious captain. The heavy rain not only made it impossible to march, but also affected the armor, bows and arrows worn by soldiers.

In addition, there are no waterproof clothes at this time. After the clothes are wet, the soldiers who have to march in the rain will definitely lose their morale.

This gave him time to breathe, the mysterious captain and Xiahou Dun thought at the same time, they both thought that Dongfang Sheng would take the opportunity to rest his team to meet their siege.

But if Dongfang Sheng follows the rules like this, is he still Dongfang Sheng?
In the early morning, the heavy rain continued and the road was still muddy.

However, there was a group of people walking on the path at a leisurely pace. Looking closely, the group of people were all wearing uniform windbreakers with hoods. The heavy rain fell on the windbreakers and they all slipped off. This turned out to be a waterproof windbreaker!

In fact, it is not uncommon to have this kind of material in the Three Kingdoms. The rattan armor was mentioned in the Romance, and the rattan armor mentioned was waterproof.

And Dongfang Sheng is familiar with some natural waterproof materials, as long as these materials are simply and roughly applied to the fabric.

In order not to affect the marching speed, Dongfang Sheng abandoned the horses and handed over the horses to the care of the wounded who remained, directly turning everyone into infantry.

And in order to prevent slipping, the soldiers under Dongfang Shengming twisted three straw ropes, and then tied the three straw ropes directly to the shoes, so that they can prevent slipping and greatly increase the marching speed.

In such heavy rain, Dongfang Sheng did not plan to use bows and arrows, so there was not a single archer in the whole team, and all of them held weapons of different lengths.

To march in such a harsh environment requires perseverance. In order to train the soldiers under Dongfang Sheng, he once took them to Jiaozhou to experience the continuous heavy rain. Immediately afterwards, I adjusted my mentality and adapted immediately.

Dongfang Sheng and the others approached Xiahoudun's camp a little bit. Why did they choose Xiahoudun instead of the seemingly weaker mysterious captain?
This was thought through by Dongfang Sheng. Xiahou Dun was already in a very tense state when he blocked himself before. The stalemate and blockade in the past few days, to be honest, Dongfang Sheng is tired here, and Xiahou Dun and others are even more tired. After a long journey, he must be tired, and Xiahou Dun might let his soldiers rest on such a heavy rainy day, so a surprise attack on Xiahou Dun was an excellent decision.

On the contrary, the mysterious captain has been waiting for work with leisure, basically without too much loss, and judging from the previous fights, this guy is thoughtful, and it seems that there will be no excessive mistakes.
