153 Defending the Arrow

The sleeping people were awakened by the sound of horse hooves.

"The Han army is here, kill people! Run--"

The already terrified refugees fled everywhere, and the chaos was like a fire cooking oil, which was comparable to a camp roar. Many people who rushed into the Zhang River and died were silted, and the refugees were trapped in the river. How could they escape if they were to take their families and take their families?

The Sanhe Knights also have a choice. They specialize in killing strong bodies and strong bodies, but they ride by the elderly, weak women and children. They can't avoid it and are caught in the horse's hooves and trampled into meat sauce, which is not worth cherishing.

The reason why I only kill strong men is because I can kill good people and make achievements!

Your Majesty’s edict made it very clear. Eliminate evils. Those who dare to follow the thief will be killed without any hesitation. These refugees who were entangled by the Yellow Turban Army are all the “following the crowd” mentioned in the edict. If you look at it in detail, it is not considered as killing good people and making excuses.

The refugees were unable to cross the Zhang River with their backs. The refugees were headless and flies. The spirit who rushed to the front was hit by arrows and fell to the ground one after another, and were trampled on the soles of the people behind them. They fell down layer by layer and finally broke through the encirclement and fled south.

The Sanhe Knights changed the encirclement and suppression to cover and kill. After falling into the crowd, they searched for those who could enter military merits in the crowd. They could either shoot them with an arrow or beheaded with a knife. The refugee army cried and shouted for their parents, and the sudden deaths were scattered in the wilderness and were pecked and gnawed by crows and wild dogs. Many days later, the baby could still be heard crying in the grass. Before the mother fell to death, she protected the children with her body. Although she escaped the military difficulties by chance, she could not avoid the fate of being taken away by wild dogs and wolves.

The battle was covered until dawn. The anger and energy were exhausted. The fatigue came, and he swallowed his saliva and felt hungry. The horsepower was also exhausted. Then he stopped the war horses. The Sanhe Knights, sweating all over and the mist, gradually lined up in a wall. He took the cakes and dried meat in his arms, and just ate the sake of wine, and feasted. He watched the people running away coldly.

Looking south of Yecheng is Liyang.

The south of Liyang is the river. Among the "Yellow Turbans" there were mostly strong and injured, and most of the elderly, weak, women and children were left. The one who greeted them was the Liyang camp soldiers who sharpened their knives.

The meat was dried and swallowed. The Knight of Yisanhe smiled and said, "I waited for a night to run, but I asked Liyang Camp to get a big bargain."

Someone next to him answered: "Most of them are worthless old, weak, women and children, and their heads are useless!"

"Although the head level is useless, the jewelry on the body and the property in the bag are of great value." Someone pointed out.

"That's right." The knights sighed.

The north bank of the Great River, Liyangjin.

In the third year of Yuanguang in Emperor Wu (132 BC), the river broke its dam and the water flooded the sixteen counties. Emperor Wu ordered Ji Ren and Guo Chang to send tens of thousands of soldiers to the Huzi to break the mouth, and he sank his beloved White Horse and Yubi. He personally led his ministers to the Xuanfang Palace to command the Du Jue, so Liyangjin was also called Baimajin.

Since learning that Yecheng was restored, the cavalry commander Cao Cao ordered all the soldiers of the camp to prepare for their troops and wait for the battle.

There is indeed something unusual tonight.

The fire was raised in the camp as day. Cao Cao climbed up the tower and looked around at the thatched beach that was faintly illuminated by the fire. In the weeds that undulate with the wind, there were rustling rustling like a group of rats walking at night. From time to time, there were one or two broken crying.

"The Chief." Seeing Cao Cao coming in person, several camps came to see him.

"How is the military situation?"

"Yesterday, the scout came to report that the rioters in Yecheng went south to cross the river. Calculate their way, and the vanguard should have arrived." Then the captain replied.

"Everyone is hiding in the thatch?" Cao Cao pointed out.

"That's right." The captain smiled and said, "The frightened bird dared not dare to fight the enemy, so he huddled in the grass and wanted to get away with it. Unexpectedly, the camp raised fires like day, and was afraid of revealing its body, so he did not dare to act rashly."

Cao Cao nodded gently: "Can the port of Liyang be properly arranged?"

"According to the order of the commander of the commander, people have ordered to arrange comprehensive arrangements. There are barriers outside the port and ambushing them in the port. There are more objects that cause fire and smoke. Just one fire can burn the bandits to ashes."

Seeing that several lieutenants were about to speak but stopped, Cao Cao felt aroused and asked, "How to defeat the enemy, do you have any good ideas?"

"I dare to ask the commander, why don't you take the wealth that comes to your door? Instead, you have to burn it all out with a fire." Then someone spoke.

Cao Cao was about to answer, but he glanced at everyone and then he understood. When he said that, he suddenly changed his words: "What do you think?"

Then a captain clasped his fists and said, "We all think that setting fire is not the best way. We should guard the camp tonight, wait for the sun to rise, and all the elites will come out. Cut all the thieves over. Isn't it a great achievement?"

"You are all aware of your heart." Cao Cao laughed and said, "As everyone said, we should raise our energy tonight, and we will go out to kill the enemy early tomorrow morning."

"Here!" Everyone was overjoyed and accepted the order.

Cao Cao was concerned about how to minimize the losses. However, the generals under his command were concerned about how to make the greatest profit.

The so-called public anger is difficult to infringe. If you insist on doing it alone, you may cause mutiny. Cao Cao followed suit and revised the plan. The original intention was to set up an ambush at the port and wait for the thieves to plunder the ships and compete to cross the river, just one rocket to ignite the ships, and then all the thieves could be burned to death on the river. This way, all the enemies would be wiped out, and the losses would be minimal.

However, the generals and officers under their command all wanted to behead and earnestly earnestly, and after being killed on the spot, it would be convenient for plundering property. If they meet a handsome woman, they would take her back to the tent and become a prostitute after getting tired of playing. Isn’t that great?

Everyone's thoughts, how could Cao Cao not know?

Then I entered the tent and slept until dawn.

The next morning, the wind was howling. The thatched grass fell and tilted, like strong winds and waves. In the endless weeds on the river beach, figures appeared and faintly appeared. They crawled in groups, trying to bypass the camp and rush to the downstream ferry.

Suddenly, after hearing the three-way drums in the camp, the soldiers of Liyang camp formed a formation and rushed out.

Cao Cao took the lead and rushed to the deserted beach.

"Run--" It's useless to hide, and the thieves suddenly stood up. The dense heads made the soldiers of Li Yang feel ecstatic. This is all military merit!

Staring at a thin figure fleeing from behind, Cao Cao whipped his horse.

The people and horses intertwined, and the sword was cut in their hands and waved them down.

Hearing the whistling wind behind him, the man suddenly looked back.

When Cao Cao looked at him, he was shocked.

The lightning was shining and the sword was not enough to be retracted. A white head rose into the sky. A few streams of residual blood were spurted out weakly, and the headless corpse fell to the ground.

Cao Cao stopped the irritable horses and looked around. He saw that these so-called bandits were all white-haired and many of them were old!

"Look at the commander!" The knight behind him stretched out his hand and pointed.

Cao Cao followed the trend and saw that with the help of these elderly people, a large group of women and children were flocking to the port. The number of people was tens of thousands.

"Stop! Stop! Stop quickly!" How could the camp soldiers who were rising, hear Cao Cao's orders. Chasing the bandits running around, galloping around, and being so happy.

Cao Cao made a quick decision and led his personal guards to escape from the battle and rushed to the port.

Seeing the commander's flag moving, the soldiers of the camp reacted. A team of people left behind to kill the enemy, so they turned their horses and chased the cavalry commander.

A rain of arrows shot down, and the healthy woman running in front fell to the ground. The woman with disheveled hair, like a ghost, held her youngest son and stepped onto the corpse. Unfortunately, she only rushed out a few steps and was shot through the man's arms by a powerful crossbow.

"Stop shooting, stop shooting!" The guard cavalry shouted loudly. Seeing the woman rushing towards the port die layer by layer, a corpse hill was piled up. Cao Cao suddenly beat the horse and rushed out from the thorn, blocking the formation with his body.

The elite cavalry behind him also followed the cavalry commander and rushed into the battlefield. They formed a human wall to block the shooting line.
