Chapter 3371: Sleepless Tonight

Chapter 3370 Stay up all night

In front of Cao Jun's camp, Xu Chu quietly walked up with a group of soldiers. They shuttled through the darkness like a group of ghosts, taking every step carefully for fear of alerting the enemy.

Cao Jun's camp stretched from east to west. Compared with the figures of Xu Chu and others, their huge bodies were like big rocks and small gravels.

In this world, no matter what it is, once it reaches a certain scale, it will definitely have a shocking power.

As it is with people, so it is with things.

Seeing the Cao Jun camp in front of him filling his entire field of vision, Xu Chu couldn't help but feel a little short of breath.

He stopped.

The chilling atmosphere of the war unknowingly enveloped the surrounding areas.

There seemed to be some tension and fear in the air, like the god of death lurking in the darkness, but the rotten stench could not be concealed by the night.

Night attack is an old tradition of the Hussars.

Behind Xu Chu, the hussar soldiers habitually maintained a three-pronged array, which could not only avoid a weak attack point, but also prevent the formation from expanding too much and increasing the risk of exposure.

Xu Chu could even smell the smoke and blood left from the previous battles here. In this upcoming battle, everyone must go all out.

Victory, have it all.

Failure is accompanied only by death.

If you want to survive in this cruel world, you can only do your best.

Their position was already very close to Cao Jun's camp.

There are not many shelters near Cao Jun's camp. Leaving the plateau in front of you, there is a relatively flat distance, which will increase the risk of exposure.

Xu Chu waved his hand slightly, and the few people who showed their heads to detect the situation followed Xu Chu and silently retreated down the slope of the plateau.

In the ravine behind the plateau, everyone was waiting quietly.

"Everyone!" Wear armor! 』

Xu Chu ordered in a low voice.

In order to avoid being discovered by Cao Jun's scouts hiding in the dark due to the collision of armor scales during the march, Xu Chu and others came wearing close-fitting leather armor, and now they must add a layer of iron armor.

The laces of the armor bag were untied.

Put on the condom first.

Then, from bottom to top, drape them layer by layer.

The belly of the robe, the armor of the robe, and the tail of the falcon.

锜霜, shoulder swallowing, arm 鲲.

Yaxia, Dunxiang, Douluo.

Finally put on the visor...

Xu Chu drew out his sword and looked at the edge of the blade in the starlight.

The sharp edge reflected the fighting spirit in his eyes, and a cold light flashed past.

"Follow someone!" 』

Xu Chu said in a deep voice, "After tonight, you and I will be famous all over the world!" 』

In the past, Taishi Ci rushed thousands of miles to attack Yecheng, Zhang Liao's 800 cavalry raided Hanzhong, and Zhao Yun shocked the northern desert...

Xu Chu also asked himself, when will he be like them?

The answer may be now!

That's tonight!

Tonight, it is the turn of Xu Chu and Xu Zhongkang to become famous all over the world!

Xu Chu gripped the sword tightly, raised his shield, and stepped forward.

Behind him, figures quickly followed one after another...

…

…

In Cao Jun's camp, the lights flickered.

Under Cao Hong's order, Bao Zhong had moved his troops to the camp near the periphery.

The move of the camp went smoothly. The military academy that was originally here looked at Bao Zhong as if he saw a fool...

These days, fools are rare animals!

However, during these days of fighting, Bao Zhong behaved like a "fool".

What is the biggest fool among big men?

First of all, of course, I love the great man, the emperor, and the prime minister. Then with such lofty ideals and firm beliefs, we uphold the principle of serving others, dedicating ourselves to others, and solving problems for others without taking any reward.

This is a generally recognized fact. Anyone who can lend a hand for free is a good person!

As for Bao Zhong, he took several steps in a row!

Do what you do and love what you do, whether you are cannon fodder on the front line or demoted to trash, even if you are in the worst environment, eating the lowest food, doing the hardest work, you still maintain your respect for the big man. For the emperor, for the prime minister's love, forge ahead and strive for self-improvement, especially in the later stages of the battle with the hussars, he was not afraid of hardships, fought tenaciously, charged forward, retreated behind...

Oh, let's put it this way, compared with Yuan Benchu, the model of the Han Dynasty back then, and Bao Shuyi now, they are both younger brothers!

What does the little thing Yuan Shao did count?

It's just a joke, it's not really removal from office!

Isn't it just that he received a serious warning from the Han Dynasty, and then he could become the governor of Bohai?

Completely in line with the Dahan process!

So speaking of it, Bao Zhongcai is truly amazing!

Bao Zhong and Bao Shuyi can be regarded as the number one seed player who impressed the great man in Taixing for nine years!

Everyone else is not qualified!

It turned out that the military academy camped here held Bao Zhong's hand tightly, with tears in his eyes, "General Bao!" You... are such a good person! Come back, I’ll treat you to a drink later...drink..."

It turns out that the military academy camped here left in tears, walking in a hurry, fearing that if you walked slowly, you would be left behind...

Bao Zhong's face was a little twisted, but he didn't know what to say.

Attacking Anyi is like an ant attack!

Everyone knows that attacking a city is the most difficult task for ants, but Bao Zhong asked for orders and went up!

Not only did he fill in his own troops, but even his own son lost half his life!

This man Bao Zhong is still loyal without regrets!

Who can compare? !

Later, with the hastily formed makeshift team, he stood at the forefront without saying a word!

No complaints, no bargaining, just stood out like that!

What do you mean you can fight just by pulling them out? !

That's it!

Who can compare?

In the daytime, when Cao Sheng and others were vulnerable, it was Bao Zhong's troops, with only a thousand soldiers, who bravely went up and protected Cao Sheng and retreated slowly. Although the Cao army was defeated as a whole, it more or less maintained the last bit of the Cao army's fig leaf from falling off, and it was still covered at three points, so it can't be said to be naked!

When most of the Cao army retreated, who was the one who was left behind?

It was Bao Zhong and Bao Shuyi again!

Tsk tsk tsk!

Now, the names of Bao Zhong and Bao Shuyi are resounding throughout the Cao army camp!

It can be said that these Cao army soldiers who retreated back more or less have to "accept" a "friendship" of Bao Zhong!

If Bao Zhong had not "bravely" stood up in the end and lined up to resist, the cavalry would have directly crushed into the camp.

Now, Bao Zhong and Bao Shuyi have to personally sit on the front line and protect the safety of everyone at the most dangerous edge of the Cao army camp. How can this great righteousness like a mountain not move people?

『...』

Except Bao Zhong himself. He himself was not moved at all.

Ju Ma Mai Pi.

He went from a marginal little person to a big figure who is known to everyone in the Cao army camp. The hardships involved...

As the saying goes, one knows the cold and warm of the water.

The edge camp of the Cao army camp, even if you use your toes to think, you will definitely know that it is not as good as the camp that Bao Zhong originally stayed in.

After all, this kind of location could become a battlefield at any time, so how could we build any comfort?

It was already very good to be able to sleep well.

Therefore, the Cao army soldiers who followed Bao Zhong naturally complained...

That's right, everyone else in the Cao army camp was thinking of Bao Zhong's goodness, but the soldiers who followed Bao Zhong were full of complaints.

At this time, in the camp at the forefront of the Cao army, although fireworks were strictly prohibited, there were full of people moving around.

The soldiers who had just fallen asleep were awakened and moved here overnight. How could they feel comfortable?

Moreover, the incident happened in a hurry, and many things were not organized in time. Now in the camp, the armored soldiers couldn't find the armor plates, the sword-wielding soldiers couldn't find the swords and guns, and the archers only had an empty bow but no arrows...

It was a mess. If there were no sergeants from the military academy, who were whispering to these guys to keep their voices down, it would be like a pot boiling at this moment!

Bao Zhong looked wooden.

His direct guards, who knew a little bit of the secret, kept their mouths shut, while others who didn't understand why Bao Zhong did this were full of complaints!

In the eyes of these ordinary Cao army soldiers, good things can be done once, how can they be done all the time? !

Doing a good deed once, risking one's own family's fortune, turning a Mercedes-Benz into a bicycle, and a good son into a cripple, is enough to be admired, but now they have encountered this strange Bao Zhong, who has been doing good things, and has been doing good things from beginning to end. This...

Isn't this going to kill people? !

Look!

Doing good things, where is it?

This is the forefront of the Cao army camp!

What if something happens, this is the front line!

But in the face of great loyalty and righteousness, everyone can't say anything, so they can only throw their knives and guns, throw sticks and bows, and make some noise to vent their emotions, muttering some complaints, the sound is not too loud, and it just makes Bao Zhong hear it.

Bao Zhong smiled bitterly. He never thought that he would become like this!

The shouts, collisions, and fighting sounds during the day seemed to still echo in his mind, until they hit his heart, again and again.

God have mercy on me!

What will the future be like? Is it right or wrong for me to do this?

Before making a choice, it is inevitable to worry about gains and losses. After all, there is still a choice, or I think there is still a choice.

Beside Bao Zhong, Never was very calm. He glanced at Bao Zhong and lowered his voice and said: "In fact, this is the best... General, think about it. Anyway, no matter how you fight these days, you can't win... So why not... What's more, this time is really a good opportunity, a great opportunity... If you miss it, General, think about it again... Being in front and behind are completely different... You can also let your son go faster... To be honest, I don't have much medicine left... But over there, there must be..."

Never's voice is low, and sometimes he speaks intermittently.

This is also normal. After all, only a fool would scream about this kind of thing and let everyone know about it. In every drama, whenever someone talks about rebellion, they must shout out an octave higher than humans, and then pretend to be panicked and cover their mouths to shush, as if they are afraid that others can't see or hear them...

The whispers that always come are like the devil tempting.

Yes, Dalang, for Dalang.

Bao Zhong gritted his teeth. Isn't everything for Dalang?

Yes, it's for Dalang.

Bao Zhong exhaled and looked at the guards around him. These are his confidants, who followed him to travel all over the country and fight on the battlefield.

"I'm sorry, I have implicated all the brothers..." Bao Zhong also lowered his voice, "After I get through this, I, Bao Zhong, swear to God, if I have a share, all brothers will have a share!" If you violate it, you will be punished by heaven and earth! 』

In the era of the Han Dynasty, people still respected gods and ancestors, so swearing to God or swearing to ancestors was relatively binding...

"General...if this is...then the family..."

The famous Bao Zhong guard whispered, with some worry in his voice.

"Is this..." Bao Zhong was also confused about this question.

Although Bao Zhong’s focus is on his own children, everyone is different, and not everyone’s children are around him...

"It doesn't matter. ” Ji Chang smiled softly on the side, “Everyone, have you ever heard of Li Mancheng? As long as you have enough merit, I believe there... nothing will be a problem..."

"oh oh……"

Although there was nothing at the moment, others seemed to have received some psychological comfort.

Even Bao Zhong's eyes lit up.

Yes, Li Mancheng’s whole family moved!

And it is said that Li Dian is now a senior local official who has the sole command of military and political affairs!

A real two thousand stones!

Bao Zhong looked at the close guards around him and saw some enthusiasm in their eyes.

Indeed, if Bao Zhong can get a high-ranking official with two thousand stones, then those people who follow Bao Zhong will naturally be like chickens and dogs ascending to heaven. As for the previous belongings, they will naturally not be worth mentioning...

"Ahem..." Bao Zhong coughed softly twice, concealing his desire for fame and fortune, "I'm definitely not doing it for myself, I'm just doing it for Da Lang, and for everyone... and for everyone's future... …』

Everyone nodded silently.

No one is really stupid enough to correct every word of the leader.

Even though everyone knows that it is a false statement...

After a while of silence, Bao Zhong became a little worried again.

His current reputation is so "good" that he is in a daze. If he doesn't rebel, he seems to be...

"General Bao..."

Always observing from the side, he whispered, "Here, in Shandong, you have done so much, what have you gained?" A good name? The son was still in pain in the back camp, what kind of care did he receive? If it weren’t for Hussar’s secret medicine..."

"Hiss..." Bao Zhong took a breath and woke up.

Yes, he is a "good guy" known to everyone in Cao Jun's camp!

But what can this bring him?

It’s “the one who can do the hard work”!

He was forced into dangerous situations again and again...

Just because he is a "good guy"?

If he is really a good person, what will happen now?

"But... if we say..." Bao Zhong looked at the surrounding areas farther away, "Now those soldiers are resentful, and when the time comes... I'm afraid they won't be willing to listen to me..."

Bao Zhong was a little worried. His current personality is perfect, but when the time comes and his personality collapses, who will follow him?

"You are wrong, General..." Chang smiled, "On the contrary, this is the General's best opportunity..."

…

…

Cao Jun's army.

Cao Hong was wearing heavy armor and looked solemn.

The Central Leader and Central Guard soldiers beside him were also a little nervous.

The war is imminent, and those who are not nervous are in the minority after all.

Some stood there without saying a word, wearing armor and holding soldiers, while others sat along the earth wall and adjusted their bow strings.

On the walls surrounding the camp, there was also the faint sound of mechanical bowstrings.

Large shields and spears were gathered together densely, and large bundles of arrows were transported over. They were immediately scattered, and you took them away one by one.

The Central Leading Army and the Central Guarding Army had experienced many battles. Cao Hong suddenly had to prepare for the hussars to attack the camp at night. It was a little hasty, but it was also done in an orderly manner. In the entire central military camp, except for the low voice of the military sergeant's command, the sound of armor-leaf blades clashing, the dull sound of footsteps, and the crackling sound of torches hanging high on the wall, there was no panic noise.

Cao Hong watched, nodding from time to time to the passing military academy.

When these leaders and guards saw Cao Hongan sitting in the center, they naturally felt more at ease.

"General..." the guard asked in a low voice, "Bao Shuyi's side...do you want..."

Cao Hong was silent and did not answer immediately. Instead, he seemed to have an itchy scalp, so he took off his helmet and scratched it. His hair is already a little gray. I don't know if it's caused by being tired for a while, or because of the sadness of losing his son.

I don't know if it is armor specially prepared for night battles. Cao Hong is currently wearing black light armor. There is no bright pattern decoration at all, only black and gray.

Cao Hong patted his helmet and put it on again.

"No need. Cao Hong said in a low voice, "It is difficult to tell whether you are loyal or traitorous except in times of crisis!" 』

The guard wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Cao Hong, "No need to say more, let's go see if the kerosene and... are all ready?" Be careful with tinder! 』

The guards took the order and left.

Cao Hong fastened his helmet and looked at the surrounding camps.

If Bao Zhong is really "loyal", then he relies on this camp to kill the Qiusi men and horses!

If Bao Zhong is actually a "traitor", then he can only take another approach...

But it was a bit of a pity.

What a pity...

Before Cao Hong could finish his sigh, a huge explosion suddenly sounded in front of him, and the orange-red flames suddenly surged into the entire field of vision, making his eyes seem to be stinging for a moment.

The next moment, there was the sound of weapons clashing, short and dull, which seemed particularly thrilling in the night!

Hearing and seeing such a scene, the soldiers on the sentry tower in the central camp almost leaned half of their bodies out of the railing, their eyes wide open, and screamed: "Enemy attack! The cavalry is attacking! !"
