Pangu opened the world, and blood became Huai Du.

When the Huai River flowed from the gurgling mountains reached the Shouchun area, it had already gathered into a surging river. Although it was not as vast as the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, it was enough to be called a natural barrier.

The north bank of the Huai River, Xiacai Ferry Crossing.

More than 10,000 members of the Lu Yuan coalition were stationed along the river, and the flying flags were inserted into the ferry area. Just waiting for the commander to give the command, thousands of arrows were fired and rushed across the river. Zhang Xun, the commander of this coalition, was Zhang Xun. Since Ji Ling was killed, he was the only remaining general under Yuan Shu who could lead troops.

But although Zhang Xun was the head coach, he was not the one who decided how to attack, but Gao Shun and Zhang Liao who came from afar.

Because among the more than 10,000 soldiers, the ones who were truly capable of fighting were Gao Shun and Zhang Liao's three thousand elite soldiers, and although the total number of Yuan Shu's army was more than 7,000, the remaining soldiers who were pieced together after repeated defeats were not to mention the combat experience, and the confidence to win alone was obviously insufficient. Their purpose of joining the army was at best just to get a full meal.

Looking at the messy Yuan Shu military camp, Gao Shun's brows began to frown. He murmured to himself: "There are not many soldiers but the essence. Yuan Gaolu has been ruined by wine and sex in recent years. Why don't you understand this simple truth?"

Zhang Liao, who had just stepped out of the camp, saw Gao Shun's tiny-green face and comforted him: "Actually, Yuan Shu didn't understand, but he had no choice but to know. Look at his command, there are still several generals who can make a move. Zhang Xun, who came this time, has a reputation and is already old and has no use."

Gao Shun nodded, with a hint of confidence on his tough face and said, "It is now the most urgent thing to break through the Huang Zhong defender on the other side. Tomorrow morning, I will lead the camp to rush forward. Wen Yuan, you will lead the main force to detour from the upstream to plagiarize Huang Zhong's retreat!"

Zhang Liao looked at the thick enemy camp on the other side and said, "Watch the enemy camp strictly and properly, and the orders are unified. You can see that Huang Zhong is not an ordinary person. We must not underestimate him in a battle tomorrow. There are only too few soldiers in the camp. You can bring the 800 soldiers left by Hao Meng."

Gao Shun smiled faintly and said, "Since the war with the Marquis of Wen, the camp has not faced several times the enemy's army, and has lost again. Wen Yuan, you took the eight hundred soldiers there, and leaving them to me will only be a burden."

Zhang Liao's eyes flashed. He fought side by side with Gao Shun for so many years. From Gao Shun's high-spirited fighting spirit, he understood Gao Shun's intentions. He gently patted Gao Shun's shoulder and turned around and walked into the tent.

There are not many people in the world who can stop the trap. No matter how brave Huang Zhong is, he will never be better than Cao Cao's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry!

On September 10th, on the Huai River.

Huang Zhong was wearing brand new armor, with a golden-backed bow on his waist, and several arrows were inserted diagonally. In the pair of big hands with blue veins, there was a large sword with a shining cold light. Behind Huang Zhong were two thousand infantrymen with neat lineups. Most of these soldiers were following Huang Zhong from Jingnan all the way north.

At this moment, their eyes were staring at Huang Zhong, who was leading the army ahead, revealing infinite trust.

On the other side, the horns that soared into the sky sounded whimperingly, and Huang Zhong's face changed. The princes' tribes in the Kanto area generally used war drums and gongs to represent advance and retreat, while this kind of horned war horn was only found in the fierce Xiliang army.

Huang Zhong narrowed his eyes and stared at the moving black dots on the north bank for a long time. Two days ago, the scout came to report that under the command of Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, Lu Bu's three thousand elite troops had already met with the remnants of Yuan Shu who were living in the Huaibei area. The intention of sending troops south to conquer Huainan was quite obvious. As the only general in Gao Chong's army who was alone in Jiangbei, Huang Zhong felt both the heavy pressure on his shoulders and a little excited.

While sending a quick horse to Moling to send messages, Huang Zhong divided his soldiers into two groups, one group with more than 300 people guarding Shouchun, and the other group with about 2,000 infantrymen stationed on the other side of Xia Caidu. Huang Zhong's purpose of defending the city wall was that the city wall of Shouchun was destroyed and could not be defended, while the Huai River was a natural barrier. Only by defending the ferry could the enemy's attack be stopped.

"General, the enemy has crossed the river!" the person behind him shouted.

Huang Zhong's white beard trembled slightly. The enemy on the other side was using the collected ships to build a floating bridge and then crossed the water to attack from the floating bridge. This tactic is commonly used by the northern army, but it is not feasible in the Jiangdong area, because most of the rivers in the south flow rapidly, and the floating bridge may be washed down before it is built.

Unfortunately, the flood season of the Huai River has ended. After September, the water volume in the upstream has been reduced by half. The river channel of the Huai River is much smaller than in July and August. In addition, the water is no longer surging. Gao Shun and Zhang Liao arrived in Xia Cai six days ago, and they did not launch an attack until today, with the goal of waiting for the most suitable opportunity to cross the water.

Like every battle in the past, Gao Shun was the first to climb the floating bridge, with ruthlessness and coldness in his eyes. Whether he could successfully cross the Huai River in today's battle is the key. As long as one soldier and one soldier climbed the south bank, he was confident that the enemy would flee in front of the trapped camp.

In the tense confrontation, Gao Shun had reached the center of the Huai River.

The water flowed under Gaoshun's feet—.

"After landing, each team formed a cone battle formation to break through the enemy's defense line!" Gao Shun shouted loudly as he walked.

Almost at the same time, a cold smile appeared on Huang Zhong's purple-colored face on the other side.

"Arrowman, get ready!" Huang Zhong raised his hand, took out an arrow from his waist, put on the bowstring, and aimed at the direction of the floating bridge.

Hearing Huang Zhong's order, five hundred well-trained archers stood up from the queue. They bent their bows and arrows one by one, and the branches were covered with flammable pine oil.

Huang Zhong was prepared for Gao Shun and Zhang Liao's attempt. He just waited for the floating bridge to reach more than halfway through. Huang Zhong gave the order. The rockets of five hundred soldiers would rush straight to every corner of the floating bridge like the tongue of fire. The autumn was clear and the fire was blazing. When the floating bridge could not withstand the fire, it would collapse, and the people on the bridge would also fall into the water and drown.

"Look at it-!" A soldier of Yuan Shu who built a floating bridge noticed the movements on the south bank and exclaimed.

Gao Shun groaned, pulled out his waist and cut it down. The head of the Yuan Shu army soldier suddenly rolled into the water like a gourd, splashing only a few small waves.

Gao Shun didn't even look at the headless corpse falling on the floating bridge, and continued to run forward quickly. The soldiers of the camp behind him kicked the dead body under the bridge with one kick, and followed Gao Shun forward.

"Let me go!" Huang Zhong put out his hand, and the arrow that was ready to shoot out.

This arrow Huang Zhong took Gao Shun.

Huang Zhong saw the scene just now. Gao Shun's ability to adapt just now was definitely a manifestation of a first-class general. If he wanted to block the enemy's attack, he had to kill this person first.

Hearing Huang Zhong's order, five hundred archers shot the lit rocket into the sky, "Bang! Boom!" The bow sounded, and the arrows covered the sky like rain..., carrying flames all over the sky.

The sharp arrow broke through the air and was only a ruler. Gao Shun raised his sword and looked for a sound to greet him, but he had to "clang!". Gao Shun's tiger's mouth holding the knife actually felt a slight pain, and his feet staggered several steps. The sharp arrow was blocked and deviated from the target, refracting and shooting towards Gao Shun's side and rear.

A soldier in the camp was too late to be prepared and was stabbed deep into his abdomen by an arrow, and blood was immediately flowing.

Gao Shun, who had been calm and uncomfortable in the coming enemy, also changed his face when he saw this. Someone in the enemy formation on the other side had such a powerful and domineering archery technique. This arrow had been blocked by his own sword, but he still had the strength to shoot a soldier with armor and stomach to death.

However, Gao Shun had no time to think about this at this time, because the rockets were hanging over his head.

"Cover Water-!" Gao Shun shouted.

Hearing Gao Shun's shout, the soldiers of Yuan Shu who built floating bridges on both sides took out two skin bags from under him. One skin bag poured the river water on the wooden board of the floating bridge, and the other skin bag was handed to the charge of the soldiers of the camp. The soldiers who took the skin bag immediately untied the tied bag and drenched their whole body.

The soldiers who were caught in arrows fell on both sides of the pontoon bridge. The screams of the injured were mixed with the sound of "Dong, Dadong--" dead bodies being pushed off the pontoon bridge, making the pontoon bridge instantly a deadly Shura Dojo.

"Continue to rush!" Gao Shun wiped a handful of water droplets on his face and said in a deep voice.

The rockets that were shot down with overflowing water can only be effective for a while, but not for a long time. If the enemy shoots another wave of arrows, the soldiers of Yuan Shu who have no weapons will be panicked. They can dodge the first time, but they cannot dodge the second time. The third time, without the support of these auxiliary soldiers, the warriors in the camp will fall into a dilemma of no way forward.

Now, it is less than twenty feet away from the south bank, and if you want to land, you must risk your death at any time.

The muscles on Huang Zhong's face trembled slightly, and his face was also moved. He did not expect the enemy to be so tenacious. He raised his hand again, and the second wave of arrows flew all over the sky again, like locusts covering the sun...

The brothers around Gao Shun fell down one after another, and only a loud scream was heard. Deputy General Han Xian was shot in an arrow on the bridge in his thigh, and was immediately shot without any cover. He was shot in an instant and returned to the underworld.

Han Xian was an old brother who joined the army with Gao Shun to Bingzhou. He came side by side many times. When he fought against the Yellow Turban Thiefs in Black Mountain, Han Xian was the only team in the camp who survived. He didn't expect to die on the Huai River today.

A bloody red flashed before Gao Shun's eyes. He sprinted a few steps with his sword, then jumped down, jumped into the waist-deep river, and saw the main general rushing forward regardless of life and death. The soldiers in the trapped camp were all competing for the first place, following Gao Shun tightly.

Their jump suddenly dispersed the strike surface. Huang Zhong's archers, who had to aim at the floating bridge, could only hit the target and shot directly one by one. In this way, the effect was much worse. In a short while, Gao Shun had already brought more than 400 dead soldiers in the trap to the river.

Seeing that the ranged attack failed, Huang Zhong hurriedly ordered: "The archer retreats, and the sword and shield hands follow me!"

Behind the archers were the fierce warriors carefully selected by Huang Zhong from Jingnan. They all had naked arms, grabbed a sharp sword in one hand and a soft shield made of rattan in the other.

"The flags cover the sun, the enemy is like clouds, the arrows fall, and the soldiers compete for the first place. I am walking in the formation and rushing to the next step, and the left and right blades are injured. Two rounds of haze are shining four horses, supporting jade tiles and roaring drums. The sky falls, and the power is angry, and I will kill all the people and abandon the field!" Huang Zhong took the lead, danced his sword and shouted, and the old and majestic voice resounded throughout the battlefield.

The two armies fought in a melee.

Huang Zhong commanded the two thousand soldiers under his command to surround Gao Shun's 400 soldiers on the bank of the river. He had obvious advantages in local forces. All the soldiers under his command were carefully selected warriors. Huang Zhong had full confidence in winning.

He snapped his hand and shouted, "Where is Lu Bu?"

Gao Shun heard it clearly in the trap camp and laughed: "Why do you need to deal with the old and weak people? Wen Hou personally takes action!"

Huang Zhong was furious and led his army into the enemy formation with a long sword. Gao Shun did not fight Huang Zhong head-on. He just calmly commanded the soldiers to run back and forth, relying on the overall strength to continuously break through and divide; break through and divide again and again, gradually destroying the enemy that was originally under his superiority again and again.

In the fierce battle, the individual power was so fragile and helpless that the brave warriors who were fearless had just rushed into the formation and were immediately surrounded by three or four enemy soldiers. The people outside wanted to rescue, but they could not break through the formation set up by the enemy no matter what.

Huang Zhong rode his horse to fight, trying to find the enemy general who had just spoken out, but he could not find the enemy general's place no matter what. Seeing the heavy casualties of the soldiers under his command, Huang Zhong was even more anxious and anxious.

Looking at the enemy formation with moderate advancement and retreat, Huang Zhong suddenly thought of it and said, "Is the enemy general who has just led the troops Gao Shun?"

Gao Shun heard Huang Zhong shouting and said with a smile: "It's a certain family!"

"I heard that every attack in the trap camp has been broken, but now I see it, it's true!" Huang Zhong said loudly with a hint of respect in his eyes.

Gao Shun's face moved and said, "Changsha Huang Hansheng is a rare figure who can fight me for so long. However, Shouchun is now in the hands of our army, and you have lost this battle!"

After hearing this, Huang Zhong laughed and said, "You have not completely seized the ferry, how can you take down Shouchun?"

Gao Shun's face turned solemn and said, "For you to be considered a tiger general, you can also understand it. As early as three hours ago, Zhang Liao's Yanbei cavalry had already climbed to the south bank from the upper reaches of the Huai River. The general put his main force here. Then, an empty city in Shouchun may not be able to stop my Yanbei's iron cavalry!"

Huang Zhong was frightened. No wonder he had fought so long, and there was no reinforcement from the other side. It turned out that Zhang Liao had already come from the upper reaches, and Shouchun only left more than 300 people. Not to mention Zhang Liao's attack, even Yuan Shu's miscellaneous soldiers could not stop this.

"Retreat quickly!" Huang Zhong turned his horse's head and shouted in a hurry.

"Huang Zhong, look at that direction--do you think you can still leave?" Gao Shun laughed.

The place where Gao Shun pointed was exactly where Shouchun City was, and in that direction there was a ray of smoke and dust rising high.
