    Chapter "Battle for the Camp"

    When Xia Houcun saw Wei Yan coming to kill him in a majestic manner, how could he dare to rush out and be the fool who got stabbed?  But he didn't panic too much, knowing that there were more than 5,000 soldiers watching him behind him.  *

    Seeing Wei Yan and the soldiers behind him, and hearing their shouts, Xia Houcun's heart trembled, and then his body began to tremble. He ordered regardless: "Shoot! Shoot quickly!"

    When the sound of bows and arrows rang out behind him, Xia Houcun felt a little more at ease. He kept shouting: "Shoot! Shoot them to death!"

    However, Xia Houcun did not see that their bows and arrows had little effect. Except for a few Yizhou soldiers running at the front who were hit by arrows, most of the bows and arrows were in vain and hit the soil.

    Wei Yan smiled softly, reined in his horse and shouted loudly: "On the shield!"

    Immediately, the troops in front stopped and moved out of the way, and a large group of soldiers holding swords and shields rushed out from the middle of the team. They shouted and rushed forward against the rain of arrows. Immediately, there were waves in the air: "Seize!"  ", "Seize!" The sound is the sound of the arrow hitting the shield.

    When Cao Jun saw the Yizhou soldiers rushing over against the rain of arrows, he became anxious. The team began to deform a little, and the number of bows and arrows gradually became sparse.

    Wei Yan raised the sword in his hand again and ordered loudly: "Brothers, kill these Cao soldiers in front of us and we can join the King of Shu. Charge!"

    ¡°Kill!¡± The shouts became louder again.

    "Surrender without killing!" Some people began to persuade them to surrender.

    Wei Yan shouted "Drive!" and tightened his legs.  The war horses shot towards the enemy formation like arrows.  Wei Yan excitedly twirled the big knife in his hand, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Hold!" The big knife hanging in the air flashed with white light and slashed downwards, followed by two piercing screams.  When the sound was heard, the two young generals blocking Wei Yan's horse rolled off their horses. One person's head rolled ten feet away, and the other person was cut into two parts at the waist.  Even the horse head of the young general behind was badly beaten by Wei Yan's sword. At this time, several gorgeous blood flowers appeared in the air.

    Wei Yan suddenly saw a small alley in front of him.  Cao Jun was desperately trying to separate on both sides, trying to stay away from this murderous demon king.

    When Wei Yan killed two young generals.  The Yizhou soldiers had already rushed into Cao Jun's loose formation. The bows and arrows had lost their effectiveness at this time, leaving the soldiers no longer to shoot from a distance but to chop and chop face to face.

    There were shouts, cries, howls, cries for help, curses, the sound of weapons clashing, and the sound of swords cutting into human bodies.  The sunset in the sky, the blood on the ground, and the blood foam or mist in the air dyed the entire battlefield red from top to bottom, and the combatants seemed to be bathing in a pool of blood.

    Wei Yan became more and more courageous as he fought. He spun his sword and formed a dazzling wall of light extending towards Cao Jun's ranks. Cao Jun's limbs and swords flew in front of him.

    As the commander-in-chief of Cao¡¯s army, Xia Houcun was really frightened.  While he was cursing Wang Shuang in his heart, who sent him to set up camp, he led his cronies to move towards the outskirts of the battlefield.  However, he still shouted: "Kill me, General! Shoot arrows! Our reinforcements will be here soon! King Wei is coming soon! Hold on!"

    Some upright generals were full of contempt for Xia Houcun who yelled fiercely: I really don¡¯t know why Wang Shuang sent such a timid guy here. Wouldn¡¯t this push thousands of brothers into a pit of fire?  Thinking of this, these generals also began to find their own way out.

    Actually, this cannot be blamed on Wang Shuang, or in other words, Wang Shuang cannot be blamed entirely.  Because only Xiahou Cun was the closest to here at that time, and according to Tanmadi's report, Liu Jia was still one day away from here, and Wei Yanma Dai was still heading towards Wei Mi City, so this should be a very safe place.  In other words, it is a safe place before Xiahou Cun completes his encampment, as long as he completes his encampment.  He and Cao Cao's soldiers had arrived. It didn't matter whether Xia Houcun was a coward or not. Who knew that Wei Yan had returned without anyone noticing.  You must know that Wang Shuang and Cao Cao also acted secretly when they inserted their armies behind Wei Yan.

    Wang Shuang did not expect that when Xiahou secretly inserted himself behind Wei Yan's army, he got too close to Wei Yan's advancing army in order to take a shortcut. Although the distance was fifteen miles away, he was still discovered by Wei Yan's scouting horse.  leading to this situation.

    With Xia Houcun's intention to retreat.  Coupled with the fact that other generals were also considering their retreat due to his influence, Cao Jun's already low morale became even lower. Especially when someone fled to the side, Cao Jun's team suddenly collapsed.

    Wei Yan naturally saw the changes in the battlefield immediately and shouted loudly to the young generals around him: "General Mo pursues the left, General Yan pursues the right, and the rest follow my general to kill!"

    "Cao's army is defeated!"

    "We are victorious!"

      "Xia Houcun ran away. If he catches him, he will be rewarded with ten taels of gold!"

    "Surrender without killing!"

    ¡­¡­

    The battlefield suddenly boiled, with all kinds of shouts and shouts coming and going. Beating up a drowned dog was the favorite of most soldiers.  What soldiers want most is to chase soldiers who are frightened and run away on the battlefield.  Everyone suddenly became desperate.

    Wei Yan used his sword to kill several Cao troops who were resisting strongly, and then led part of his troops into Xiahou Cun Shang's completed camp.  The few Cao troops left behind wisely chose to surrender.

    Because Cao Cao¡¯s army was approaching in an instant, Wei Yan also knew that only by holding on to this camp could he possibly rescue Ma Chao and the others.  Only in this way could he respond to Ma Dai and the others who were still behind him, so the biggest task after the victory was to build the camp immediately, complete the work that Xia Houcun had not completed, and prepare to resist the counterattack launched by Cao Jun.

    Seeing that most of Cao Cao's army was captured and a small part escaped under the leadership of Xia Houcun, Wei Yan immediately ordered the soldiers to stop chasing. Except for some soldiers who needed to be dispersed to monitor the movements of Cao Cao's army, the rest participated in the construction of the camp, even the newly captured soldiers.  Prisoners are no exception.

    As a result, a strange phenomenon occurred here. Cao Jun also stepped up the construction of the camp before he was captured. After being captured, he still had to build the camp. There was no change in the work, except that there were soldiers watching with whips and swords.  Forget it, as long as there are signs of laziness, they will be beaten by those aggressive Yizhou soldiers, and if there is any slight disagreement, they will be attacked with swords.  When he was building the camp a few hours ago, he complained that his superior officer was scolding him too much and urging him to work too ruthlessly.  Only now do I realize that it was heaven at that time. After being scolded and waiting for the official to leave, I could retort in front of my companions and comfort myself.  Now, let alone being scolded, even being whipped a few times, or even kicked a few times, without even daring to say no, and with a smile on your face, it means that you were beaten well, and the person below you did something wrong.  Otherwise, your life will be taken care of by the other party.

    Driven by the brutal and bloody Yizhou soldiers, coupled with the efforts of the Yizhou soldiers themselves, the construction of the camp was accelerated at an unprecedented speed.  When Cao Cao's army left the camp for more than an hour, Wei Yan had already led his generals to carry out the final inspection and acceptance of the camp: the fence had been built!  Trenches have been dug, traps have been laid out, antlers and horse stalls have been placed at designated locations, bows and arrows have been transported, and prisoners have been transported to the rear

    Liu Jia, who received the report from Wei Yan, also accelerated his march. In order to guard this choke point, Liu Jia immediately ordered Zhao Yun and E Huan to lead 40,000 soldiers to march at night to meet him.

    Cao Cao, who was still on the road, received the report that Xia Houcun's troops were defeated, and he was so angry that he almost fell off his horse.  While shouting: "Xia Houcun, I will tear you into pieces and destroy your nine tribes!" While urging the troops to speed up, he wanted to compete with Liu Jia for time and speed.

    When night fell, Cao Cao's advancing army finally approached Wei Yan's camp.  Seeing this solid and well-defended camp clearly in front of him, Cao Cao's heart bleeds.

    At this time, although the lights were brightly lit inside, it was silent. Standing on a high slope in the distance, I saw soldiers patrolling back and forth in the camp, looking calm and leisurely.

    Cao Cao gritted his teeth and said to the generals: "Recover the lost ground and wipe out Ma Chao in one fell swoop! Now Liu Jia'er's reinforcements are moving in quickly. If we don't capture this camp tonight, all the hardships we have endured in the past few days will be in vain.  Generals, keep up your efforts and take it down in one fell swoop tonight."

    Having said this, Cao Cao said sternly: "Whoever hears the drum and kills the enemy will be rewarded! If you are afraid of the enemy, you will kill him first! I will personally supervise the battle tonight!"

    "Promise!" The generals responded loudly when they saw Cao Cao's unkind expression.

    After burying the pots and making rice, nearly 80,000 of Cao's troops, with one hundred thousand in place under Cao Cao's personal supervision, participated in this battle. The battle started from the east, south and north at the same time!

    The battle was intense from the beginning. After all, Cao's army had an absolute advantage in numbers, and Wei Yan's camp was temporarily built, so the defenders were too weak.

    However, things did not go smoothly for Cao's army. Although 80,000 troops participated in the battle, due to terrain restrictions, it was impossible for 80,000 troops to join the battle at the same time. They could only fight in stages and in batches. Moreover, there was rugged mountainous terrain to the north of the camp, so it was impossible to arrange a large number of troops.  The soldiers attacked, so the direction of the attack was mainly east and south.  In this case, although Cao Jun could continue to send out fresh troops to maintain an uninterrupted and powerful attack, Wei Yan could focus on these two aspects of defense and did not need to run around to put out fires.

    Cao Cao¡¯s army rushed over with torches and shouts. Although many soldiers were swallowed up in the trap, none of the generals flinched under Cao Cao¡¯s strict orders.  They dragged away the horse fence and antlers, and rushed forward bravely against the rain of bows, arrows, and rockets. Soon they rushed to the trench.

    "Wei Yan surrender!"

      "You can't run away!"

    "Surrender and avoid death!"

    ¡­¡­

    There was no shouting in the camp, only archery. When Cao Jun rushed to the fence, countless spears were thrust out from inside, stabbing these tired Cao Jun soldiers into several holes with blood spurting out.

    However, Cao Jun also fought back fiercely, and the bows and arrows fired were denser and denser. A soldier holding a shield in the camp was only distracted by Cao Jun's shouts, and a bow and arrow was inserted into his leg. He raised his shield out of pain  His hand dropped a little involuntarily, and before he could finish hissing in pain, his unprotected head was shot by five or six arrows in an instant.

    The death toll on both sides is increasing rapidly
