Xue Bing carried his halberd and sat on his horse, sizing up his surroundings. Looking to the left, it was the deputy general, Chen Dao. Liu Bei had few soldiers and generals, and Xue Bing did not have a deputy general. Therefore, he had specially sent Chen Dao and Liao Hua to listen to his orders. Looking to the right, Xue Bing couldn't help but have a headache.
Ever since Sun Shangxiang told him that she wanted to go out with the army, Xue Bing had never stopped talking. However, no matter what he said, Sun Shangxiang just ignored him and was bent on going out with the army. In the end, Xue Bing had no choice but to report the date of the expedition, hoping to deceive the Eastern Wu Princess. Who knew that after marching for three days, when he turned around, he found that this girl had mixed in with his personal guards and ran out. After asking, it turned out that Chen Dao had unintentionally revealed the date of the dispatch of troops, which was why Sun Shangxiang had followed him out.
This army had sneaked here. Along the way, they were not careful and were able to reach here. Xue Bing was already lucky. Since she had already followed him here, Xue Bing had no choice but to arrange for her to stay by his side and keep an eye on her at all times, afraid that she would create some trouble.
"General! We'll reach South County if we continue forward!" Chen Dao suddenly said, waking Xue Bing up from his thoughts.
Xue Bing looked around and ordered,"Find a hidden place to set up camp!"”The army received the order and immediately moved. Xue Bing and Liao Hua went to observe the enemy's situation.
Liao Huayu immediately observed for a while and said to Xue Bing,"General, Cao Ren is guarding South County. Now the general wants to attack Nanjun. Do you have a good plan?”Xue Bing looked at him for a while and said," We have few soldiers. If we want to take South County, we can only use trickery. We can't attack by force." Today, he would go back and rest. Once Cao Cao's army was defeated, it would be time for him to attack.”Then he rode back to camp with Liao Hua.
The six thousand soldiers were already stationed in the mountains, but they did not dare to start a fire and could only rely on the dry food they had prepared in advance to satisfy their hunger. Sun Shangxiang bit on the hard dry food and said hatefully,"What is this? How can you eat it?" So he threw the dry food on the ground, his face full of injustice.
Xue Bing went over to pick up the rations and ordered people to wash the dust off them before bringing them back. "How can we waste food in the army like this?" he asked Sun Shangxiang. Bu Ruobing ordered people to escort the princess back to Xiakou!”"I'm not going back!" Sun Shangxiang raised her head and said. Also, don't call me princess. Did you forget what you promised?”When Xue Bing heard this, his head hurt even more. He could only say,"Yes, yes. Shang Xiang! You can't bear the hardships in the army. You'd better go back!”"Who says I can't endure hardship?" Sun Shangxiang asked anxiously.”So he took the dry food beside him and bit the bullet and ate it. Xue Bing shook his head and looked at the busy soldiers around him.
Liu Bei had very few soldiers. Together with Liu Qi's soldiers, they only had 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers. Xue Bing had brought 6,000 soldiers, which was his limit. If he brought any more, Liu Bei would have no more soldiers to use. Then Guan, Zhang, and the others could only go and take care of all the dangerous areas alone.
At this moment, his soldiers followed Xue Bing's instructions and erected a large flag in front of his tent. Xue Bing looked up at the direction of the fluttering flag and read,"When the southeast wind blows, it's time to act!”"What southeast wind?" It was the middle of winter, where did the southeast wind come from?”Xue Bing turned around and saw Sun Shangxiang looking at him with a funny expression, thinking that he was a guy with no common sense.
Xue Bing looked at her like this and had the intention to tease her. He said,"Shang Xiang, do you dare to bet with me?" "What do we bet on?" asked Sun Shangxiang. Xue Bing smiled and said," In a few days, if the east wind blows, it will be my win. If it doesn't blow, it will be your win. Do you dare?"”"You'll lose for sure!" Sun Shangxiang laughed.”"What do you want to bet?" he asked.”"If I win, I'll give you a kiss." Xue Bing rolled his eyes and smiled. If you win, I'll let you kiss me.”Sun Shangxiang was stunned when she heard this. She quickly recovered and blushed."How shameless!" Xue Bing only smiled but did not say anything.
At this moment, Chen Daozhi said to Xue Bing,""General, the camp has been set up. Do you have any other instructions?”Xue Bing fixed his face and said,"All troops should rest and not make any noise!" Order the guards to expand the patrol area. Don't let Cao Ren know that we're camping here!”
"Understood!" Chen Dao replied. He went down. At this moment, Liao Hua arrived again. Xue Bing said first,"How are the soldiers?" Liao Hua replied,"I have some complaints about not being allowed to start a fire." The most common thing was to distribute rations every day. The soldiers all said that if they were not full, how could they fight?”Xue Bing said,"Suppress this matter first. When we send out the troops, we will definitely let the soldiers have a good meal!"”Liao Hua also retreated.
Sun Shangxiang was listening and asked,"Why don't you let the soldiers eat their fill?" She didn't understand. Why was there a fixed amount of food for that kind of disgusting food? When Xue Bing heard this, he sighed." We have to lie in ambush here for a few days. We can't bury our pots and cook. We have to rely on dry rations to survive." However, no matter how much food they brought, it was not enough for the six thousand soldiers to eat for a few days. The only way was to control the amount of food distributed so that the soldiers could endure a temporary hunger.”When Sun Shangxiang heard this, she remembered that she had just thrown the dry rations on the ground. Her face was red and she thought to herself,"No wonder he picked up the rations that he had thrown away!”
After a few days of silence, 6,000 soldiers were stationed here, but Cao Ren did not find out. Xue Bing said that God would help us! That night, Xue Bing calculated that the day was almost up. He put on armor and stood outside the tent with a halberd in hand, his eyes only staring at the big flag. Sun Shangxiang watched from the side and said that Xue Bing cared about the bet, so she said,"No matter how you look at it, there won't be an east wind at this time!”
Before he finished speaking, he saw the flag gradually float up, and the wind was already blowing. Looking at the direction of the flag, it was undoubtedly the southeast wind. When Xue Bing saw this, he held his halberd and laughed loudly."Cao Cao has been defeated!" So he sent people to the direction of Red Cliff to watch, if they saw the fire rising into the sky, they rushed back to report.
Chen Dao and Liao Hua were also standing in front of Xue Bing, waiting for Xue Bing's order to immediately break camp and march. Sun Shangxiang, however, was still looking at the flag and thinking,"Why is there really a southeast wind?" Then, he thought of the bet and his heart pounded."Could it be that I really want him to kiss me?" She blushed and did not dare to look at Xue Bing. She didn't know that Xue Bing's head was full of thoughts about the Battle of Red Cliff."What a pity that I couldn't witness this unprecedented battle with my own eyes!”
Not long after, the colonel came to report,"Red Cliff's direction is blazing, as if it's daytime!"”When Xue Bing heard the report, he said to Chen Dao,""Zhou Yu is on fire!"
"General, give the order!" Liao Hua said anxiously.”"No rush!" Xue Bing said. Stay for a while longer!" Liao Hua returned to his original position and stood anxiously.
Who knew that he had waited for more than half a day. Seeing that Xue Bing was still looking at the flag, he said anxiously,"General, give the order!" Xue Bing was about to speak when he suddenly saw the southeast wind gradually stop. His face lit up with joy as he said,"Give the order! Break camp!" Liao Hua heard this, exultation left, ordered the whole army to break camp.
"General, isn't it too early to go now?"”Xue Bing was stunned when he heard this, but he did not expect Chen Dao to understand the crux of the matter. He reevaluated Chen Dao in his heart, but he said,"If we wait any longer, Cao Ren might get the accurate news!”Chen Dao then said nothing.
The army set out from Nanjun. When they were about to reach South County, Xue Bing first ordered the army to set up an ambush and said to Chen Dao and Liao Hua,""I will lead 300 cavalry to open the city gate. When you see the city gate open, immediately lead troops to help!”Chen Dao was just about to agree when Sun Shangxiang suddenly jumped out and said,"I want to go too!" "Don't mess around!" Xue Bing said anxiously. Swindling the city is an extremely dangerous thing, what are you going to do?”His words were not polite at all. He had long forgotten Sun Shangxiang's identity as a princess. However, Sun Shangxiang ignored him and said,"I must go. If you can go, why can't I?" Xue Bing was about to continue when Chen Dao interrupted him and said to Xue Bing,""General is the commander-in-chief of the army and should be commanding the army. As for the matter of deceiving the city, I can do it!”"What do you want to say to open the gates?" Xue Bing asked.”Chen Daisui whispered into Xue Bing's ear. When Xue Bing heard this, he gradually smiled. After he finished listening, he said to Chen Dao,""I'll go first. When I see my lord, I'll take it as my contribution!”
When Chen Dao heard this, he thanked him and led 300 elite cavalry away. These 300 elite cavalry were carefully selected from Xue Bing's 1,000 soldiers, and their combat strength was extraordinary. At this moment, they were wearing tattered Cao soldiers 'armor and walking towards the gate of South County in a disorderly manner.
Xue Bing led the army to lie in ambush in the distance. He could only see the 300 elite cavalry stopping at the city gate, seemingly shouting something to the soldiers on the city gate. At this moment, Xue Bing's heart seemed to be in his throat. He was afraid that the soldiers guarding the city would see through this trap and not open the city gate, but instead shoot arrows at them.
After looking for a moment, he saw that both sides were still in a stalemate. One side was on the city wall, and the other side was below the city wall. The city gate did not show any signs of opening. Xue Bing was secretly anxious, but there was nothing he could do. The reins in his hands tightened, and even his veins were bulging.
At that moment, Xue Bing noticed that there seemed to be some movement at the gate of South County, as if it was about to open. Liao Hua also said excitedly,"General, the city gates are open!"
From afar, he could not see it clearly. He could only see a white line in the middle of the city gate. However, he saw that the white line was gradually becoming thicker. It seemed that the city gate was slowly opening.
"General, charge!" Liao Hua raised the saber in his hand and said to Xue Bing excitedly. Xue Bing said,"Let's wait a little longer. We'll charge after Shuzhi leads his troops into the city."
Because they were too far away from the city gate, if they charged out now, it was hard to guarantee that the city gate that had been opened with great difficulty would close again. Therefore, they had to wait until Chen Dao charged in and made it impossible for the Cao army to close the gate even if they wanted to. Xue Bing was far away from South County, but she felt that her mind was completely focused on South County.
At that moment, the gates of South County were opened. Chen Dao was leading 300 cavalrymen into the city. Xue Bing saw it clearly and immediately ordered,"All troops, charge!" Liao Hua heard this and immediately shouted to the side,"All troops, charge!" The 6,000-strong army received the order and immediately charged towards South County like a tide.
