Through the flames, Wu Dun saw an unfamiliar face, and he was sure he had never met this person before.
"Who are you? This general remembers that there is no such person as you among the cavalry captains." Wu Dun questioned.
Xia Houyuan immediately replied: "General, the humble position is meritorious in fighting on the battlefield of Xiapi, and he was promoted to the rank of lieutenant by General Zang Ba." He also did not expect that Wu Dun would even know one of the lieutenants of the cavalry.
When the big Han is stable, the school lieutenant may be a small official position, but in the case of frequent wars and unknown Korean style, the value of the school lieutenant has become lower and lower. As long as it is someone with some strength in his hand, who will not give it. The generals under his command appoint a general, this is also to buy people's hearts.
"Huh, nonsense. This general knows very well about the cavalry generals under General Zang. If you are promoted to captain with merit in combat, the lowest rate before is the team rate, but this general has never seen your team rate. "Wu Dun shouted.
Xia Houyuan's complexion changed slightly, "Please open the gate of the city as soon as possible. Cao Jun is coming. After the humble position enters the city, he will definitely explain the reason to the general."
As soon as the voice fell, a little fire light lit up not far away, and the rumbling sound of the cavalry as they charged also spread to the city.
"General, these people are most likely to be cavalry under General Zangba. Why not open the city gate and let them enter the city. Once Cao Jun is killed, they will be in danger." The gatekeeper persuaded.
Wu Dun's heart kept struggling. After squinting his eyes at the cavalry outside the city for a long time, he shouted: "The cavalry outside the city listens to the order and meets the Cao army. This general will lead his soldiers to support you."
The goalkeeper had to admire Wu Dun's wit. If these cavalry were indeed his own soldiers, there would be no mercy against Cao Jun, and there were more than three hundred cavalrymen.
Xia Houyuan's mood at this time can be imagined. After spending a lot of words, he did not earn the city gate. You can imagine the hatred for Wu Dun. If Wu Dun had not arrived, the city gate had already been opened.
After the Cao Jun from outside the city chased him, he was a little surprised to see Xia Houyuan still not leading the cavalry into the city.
However, Xia Houyuan knew that he had been seen through by the defenders outside the city, and did not lead the tiger and leopard riders to fight. Judging from Wu Dun's performance, he was a very cautious general.
The chasing Cao Jun did not take the big fight as the goalkeeper had expected. After hearing the orders, the cavalrymen outside the city did not even make the slightest movement. The cavalry from both sides unexpectedly joined together.
Wu Dun sneered: "I don't know who Cao Jun's general dared to lead the cavalry to raid the East China Sea and spread rumors outside the city." When he said this, Wu Dun secretly rejoiced, but fortunately he just asked a few more questions, otherwise. At this time, the city gate may have been lost, and it is late at night, and the number of defenders at the gate is not many. After the gate is occupied, these cavalry have already entered the city without waiting for the defenders in the city to be mobilized. , Even if they were able to drive these cavalry out of the city, they would have to pay a heavy price.
Obtaining Wu Dun's hint, the goalkeeper understood. At this time, the tiger and leopard riders outside the city were within the attack range of the Thunderbolt and the crossbow. Since the other party dared to deceive the city gate, they might as well teach them a bitter lesson.
"I am the general Xia Houyuan under Cao Gong's account. Now Xiapi City has been broken by Cao Gong's army. If you wait to open the city gate and surrender, you will avoid the disaster of the sword and axe. "Xia Houyuan shouted, Wu Dun saw through the strategy, his mood can be imagined.
Wu Dun asked: "If this general is willing to join Cao Gong, what kind of official position will he get?"
Xia Houyuan was overjoyed when he heard the words. If he can capture the East China Sea without blood, and get the defenders in the city, it is definitely a great achievement.
Wu Dun was silent when he heard the words, and seemed to be thinking.
At this moment, Xia Houyuan keenly heard the creaking sound from the city. Although it was very faint, it made Xia Houyuan shocked. In the past, the combat experience was a stone away from the city wall. Hurt, just thinking about how to convince Wu Dun, but ignoring this aspect.
"Withdraw!" Xia Houyuan gave the order without hesitation.
Just as the cavalry had just turned their horses, huge rocks and crossbow arrows poured out from the city. Unprepared, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry lost a lot of strength.
Even though the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is an elite cavalry in the Cao Army, they do not have the strength to fight against a giant stone and a bed crossbow.
Seeing this scene, the defenders on the city erupted with loud shouts. The enemy troops outside the city could not succeed in earning the city gate. Naturally, they had a greater understanding of what Xia Houyuan said that the Cao army had captured it. Zang Ba’s bravery is well-known in the army, and the favorite has absolute confidence in Zang Ba.
Xia Houyuan gathered the cavalry and shouted: "Shameless person, after the East China Sea is breached in the future, this general will definitely kill you!"
Not only failed to capture the East China Sea, but also damaged more than 30 tiger and leopard riders outside the city. Xia Houyuan's depression can be imagined. He is a famous general in the Cao Jun, but he saw through Wu Dun under such circumstances.
After Cao Jun retreated, Wu Dun's expression was not at all relaxed. These cavalry appeared in the East China Sea, and it is very likely that Xia Pi could not be defended. This time, there were fifty thousand Cao Army who attacked Pi, and Zang Ba occupied Xiaopi for the same amount of time. Soon, the family in the city must have doubts about Zang Ba, and after facing the successive siege of the city by Cao Jun, they are likely to rebel.
"Passing the command to the soldiers in the city, carefully guard against Cao Jun's meticulous work, scouts closely investigate the situation outside the city, and don't give the enemy a chance." Wu Dun commanded.
The gatekeeper was very scared. Before Wu Dun arrived, he was going to give Xia Houyuan and the others an order to enter the city. If he did that, Donghai would be a different scene at this time.
Two days later, Zang Ba and his cavalry appeared outside the city and fled all the way from Xiapi. The expression of the cavalry could not hide the panic. The blood on the armor had dried up, and there was a layer of dust on the face of the cavalry. Very embarrassed.
After Wu Dun got the news, he hurriedly opened the city gate and welcomed Zang Ba into the city, but he was a little confused.
After Zang Ba entered the city, he sighed: "Xiapi's family secretly seized the city gate to support Cao Cao, so that Xiapi fell."
Wu Dun and the generals in the field changed their faces when they heard this. In fact, they had faintly guessed the result from the time Zang Ba appeared outside the city.
"General, two days ago, the Cao Jun sent cavalrymen to pretend to be our cavalry, with the intention of capturing the East China Sea, for General Wu to see through." A general said.
