Cao Jun is now at war with the trapped camp, and he has no time to take care of it, so he can only let things evolve and escalate.
Fighting and fighting in the front, chaos in the back, Cao Jun's retreat was quite blocked, some Cao Jun who were hesitant, had no choice but to put away their luck and rush forward.
The trapped camp has unique combat methods. Some of them block, some of them rush forward, and they are scattered throughout Cao's army, quickly tearing apart Cao's formation, making them fight on their own, unable to achieve the goal of gathering and attacking.
Xia Houyuan kept waving his gun, but if one person was forced to retreat or beheaded, another person would replace him, making it impossible to move forward at all.
Cheng Yu, who was directing at this time, saw that the situation was getting worse, and knew that he could not delay any longer, so he quickly drew his sword and leaned towards Xia Houyuan.
"General Xia Hou has broken through the defense line of the trapped camp, all the soldiers rush out with the general!"
Cheng Yu is worthy of being a ruthless person. In this dark night, Cao Jun couldn't see the situation clearly. Hearing the shouting, he thought it was true. He was overjoyed for a moment, and leaned towards Xia Houyuan desperately.
In Cao Jun's desperate attempt to encircle and annihilate the camp, it was destroyed in an instant, but Cao Jun also paid a heavy price for this.
The soldiers and horses were already approaching, and Xia Houyuan's confidence increased for a moment, and his whole body seemed to be full of strength. Cooperating with Cheng Yu who came, he forcibly tore open a hole with one sword and one spear.
Chapter 705 The Destroyed City
Seeing that a gap had been torn open, Xia Houyuan hurriedly led the remnant army to escape. Seeing this, Xia Houyuan did not pursue after this, but continued to clean up the battlefield and encircled and suppressed the left Cao army.
Xia Houyuan managed to break out of the siege, and most of his strength was lost, but he was worried that he would be trapped in the camp and chase him, so he didn't dare to stay longer, so he ordered the army to run wildly.
After walking for more than ten miles, Cao Jun, who had fought a fierce battle, was so tired that he stuck out his tongue, and some people began to fall behind. Xia Houyuan had no choice but to pause and rest, preparing to recover before continuing on his way.
Xia Houyuan got off his horse in embarrassment, took off the water bag on the horse's back, sat down on the ground, put the spear in his hand aside, and started drinking wildly.
"Hahaha, General Xia Hou, Gao has been ordered to wait for a long time, and he still hasn't made a quick descent!"
"Ahem..." Xia Houyuan drank half of the water, and suddenly a fire lighted up not far in front of him, accompanied by Gao Shun's voice, which made him cough in shock.
Because of being choked, Xia Houyuan's pale face was frightened, with a hint of reddish, which looked weird.
At the side, Cheng Yu remained calm and approached Xia Houyuan, with an ugly expression on his face, he said, "General, don't talk to him, get on your horse and charge out quickly, or you'll be in danger."
"Rush out." Xia Houyuan involuntarily held the spear with both hands, glanced at the soldiers beside him, and felt a sudden pause in his heart.
These soldiers, fleeing all the way, have already exhausted their physical strength, and now they still have the strength to fight again, so they can only cast their begging eyes on Xia Houyuan.
As Cao Cao's brother-in-law general, Xia Houyuan would not surrender to Li Huiyi even if he died, but these Cao troops have choices.
Xia Houyuan hesitated for a moment, mounted his horse fiercely with a gun, and roared loudly: "We are now surrounded, and I will not force you to go or stay. If you want to go back, you will rush!"
Hearing Xia Houyuan's words, some Cao soldiers stood up, while others sat on the ground hesitantly, split into two factions for a while.
Xia Houyuan didn't care about these, because he was not sure whether he could rush out, and he didn't want to force them to fight with their lives.
Seeing Xia Houyuan rushing forward obsessed with obsession, Gao Shun rode up on his horse with a gun, trying to capture him.
"Hi!"
"what!"
……
The two fought together, and because Xia Houyuan was exhausted, he was at a disadvantage within three rounds of fighting, and one was accidentally shot in the arm by Gao Shun.
"Ah!" Xia Houyuan screamed, covered his hands and reined in his horse, trying to get rid of Gao Shun's entanglement.
But Gao Shun already had the upper hand, how could he let him run away, he just chased after him, Cheng Yu saw this, held his sword to meet him and intercept him.
"Kuang!" Seeing a literati blocking the spear with a sword, Gao Shun's face turned cold, and with a shake of the spear in his hand, he swung the sword away, retracted the spear and turned to stab in one go.
But Cheng Yu is not a weak scholar, his swordsmanship is still outstanding compared with ordinary generals.
Seeing the spear coming, Cheng Yu held the sword to block it, shook the spear back a little, and quickly swung the sword towards Gao Shun's neck.
I didn't expect that a literati would have the power to fight back, and his tricks were so tricky that anyone would fall for them.
Gao Shun was caught off guard for a moment and almost capsized in the gutter, but fortunately he was superior in martial arts and avoided this fatal blow.
Xia Houyuan, who wanted to escape, saw Cheng Yu's help to gain the upper hand for a short time, so he turned around and besieged Gao Shun, hoping to take the opportunity to break out of the encirclement.
The two joined hands to attack from left to right, Gao Shun was at a disadvantage for a while, let alone an opponent, it was difficult to fight back if he was attacked by the two.
The opportunity was not lost, the two of them attacked desperately, broke through and intercepted, and fled away without caring about fighting the soldiers.
Seeing the two fleeing, Gao Shun led a troop in hot pursuit, but under the dark night, it was hard to see. After chasing for a few miles, they lost track of the two, and could only retreat angrily and turn back.
Fighting fiercely in the middle of the night, Xia Houyuan and others were not left behind in the end. Gao Shun, a little dissatisfied, gathered troops and escorted the prisoners back to Huaicheng.
At this time, Huaicheng has been occupied by Tian Feng, and the chaotic law and order has also recovered a lot, but there are many homeless people on the streets.
Looking at most of the houses that had been burned down, still emitting a trace of smoke, Gao Shun's face became darker and darker. The two armies were fighting, how could ordinary people be involved.
The upright Gao Shun endured all the way. When he saw Tian Feng, the first thing he said was to ask if there was a way to resettle the people.
If it was just the destruction of the house, Tian Feng would definitely have a solution, but what happened in this city was far more than that.
After Tian Feng entered the city, he first occupied various important places, and most of them were destroyed, especially the government treasury and granaries, which were all reduced to ashes.
Knowing this situation, Tian Feng knew that the matter was not in seconds, so he quickly sent someone to check around, and the news sent back made him even more worried.
It turned out that everything related to food and other things in the city was swept away by the aristocratic family, and everything that could not be taken away was burned on the spot.
Tian Feng never imagined that this drastic action had already happened, so he had no choice but to accept this fact.
Gao Shun learned all this from Tian Feng's mouth, and said with eyebrows together: "Sir, what should we do, if we don't care, Huaicheng will be in chaos, and countless people will die."
"Sigh." Tian Feng said with a sigh: "What else can I do, pull out the army rations for relief, as for the attack, I can only postpone it."
Human life is as important as military orders, which are all important. Gao Shun wanted to help the people, but he didn't want to violate Li Huiyi's order.
After thinking for a moment, Gao Shun said, "If not, let's fall into the camp by the way and continue to move forward. Mister will stay and resettle the people."
"En." Tian Feng nodded, then shook his head and said: "Although the camp is elite, they still need to eat and drink. Where does this food come from?"
There are nearly [-] to [-] people in Huaicheng, and the daily consumption is a huge amount. Li Jun usually stores food in the army, and it only takes more than half a month.
And if there are more than twice as many people to eat, it will still free up food, enough to trap the camp and continue to move forward.
"Well, it seems that we can only wait for the follow-up food to arrive." Gao Shun thought for a while, but gave up the idea of advancing, and then asked: "By the way, have you returned from the trapped camp?"
Tian Feng shook his head and said: "I haven't come back yet, but I should be on the way, come back soon."
Tian Feng and Gao Shun were not worried about trapping the elite of the camp, because Cao's army was small in number and could not pose a threat to them.
Naturally, they have chosen to pull out the army rations to help the people, and they will not chase after them, so there is no point in continuing to discuss. The two of them were also tired for a day, so they went back to the temporary residence to rest.
