Chapter 146 Xu Huang's surprise attack
"Hurry, march quickly!" The general, regardless of the crowd behind him, rushed wildly towards the direction of Luoyang's main city on another small road.
It was already midnight, and Gongsun Zan's army on the other side had not yet fought with Ma Chao's troops.
"General! There are two roads ahead!" A soldier from the front army came to report to Pan Fenghui.
Pan Feng and the others did not have a map of Luoyang, so they could only move in the direction where Luoyang was rumored.
Now there are two roads in front of them. In order to avoid omissions, the general called Deputy General Cheng Huan and asked him to lead a thousand cavalry to walk from the other road, and to take the remaining thousand men and horses from the main road.
Cheng Huan was replaced as the general's deputy general since Li Li's death, and he also obeyed the general's will.
Then Cheng Huan set out from a fork in a road with a somewhat tired cavalry. The general's troops did not rest and continued to rush around overnight.
"General! Look at where!" After about a cup of tea, the spiritual camp responsible for the investigation in Xu Huang's army discovered Cheng Huan's troops, right at the foot of the mountain where they were stationed.
"General Ziyue is right, the enemy is indeed coming from here." Xu Huang did not sleep, but was dealing with military affairs. He happened to be called by the soldiers of the Lingying camp and saw Cheng Huan's troops who were relaxing their vigilance and exhausted.
"Send the order and let the soldiers prepare!" Xu Huang immediately ordered to prepare for the battle.
Xu Huang was cautious and knew that taking too many people and horses would only alert the snakes, so he only brought five hundred cavalry to ambush, and the remaining two thousand were left to guard the camp and standby.
At this time, Cheng Huan took his head and rode on the horse. He had to close his heavy eyelids for a while after walking two steps.
If he wasn't on the horse's back, he would probably be able to sleep if he fell down.
Most of the soldiers under his command were like this, and several cavalrymen who were in charge of keeping watch were also in a mess.
Just as such a tired army marched, they were targeted by the enemy's troops.
"It seems that the enemy is only about a thousand people, and there are not many people. Come with me!" Xu Huang said softly to the left and right, and the horses on their backs rushed out of the woods.
The soldiers on both sides also cheered up and followed them out with sleepiness.
Xu Huang and five hundred people suddenly emerged from the left wing of Cheng Huan's troops, without killing roars, only heavy horse hooves.
Perhaps it was because of the fact that Cheng Huan himself and most of the soldiers did not notice it. Only a few soldiers who could stand it were awakened and discovered Xu Huang's troops. They called and retreated, asking their comrades to meet the enemy.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" A scream rang through Beim Mountain, and Cheng Huan was also awakened. Most of the soldiers under him had not yet reacted. Just like Ma Chao attacked Gongsun Zan's army, Xu Huang and the cavalry were inserted into the formation like a sharp sword. As the large army was split into two parts, many soldiers were killed directly.
"Don't disperse the entire army! Charge towards the troops in the east!" Xu Huang waved his horse with a big axe in his hand, and he commanded five hundred troops to charge in the front where Cheng Huan on the east side.
"Hurry! Come on the enemy!" Cheng Huan was originally a general who was fighting for soy sauce under Han Fu's tent. How could he encounter such a situation? In a hurry, let his subordinates rush forward to resist Xu Huang, but he retreated more and more.
