Chapter 901 Parents’ Essence and Blood Cannot Be Discarded

no! The Prime Minister entrusted me with the important task of guarding Huainan. If I can't cheer up, I am defeated by the enemy and lose Huainan, how can I be worthy of the Prime Minister's trust?

If you ask who Cao Cao trusted the most, it was neither Xun Yu, who was known for his unparalleled strategies and talents, nor Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren, who had conquered the east and west and made many meritorious deeds, but Xiahou Dun. Xiahou Dun and Cao Cao had a good relationship when they were young, and they were true life and death friends.

Thinking of Cao Cao's entrustment, Xiahou Dun held back the pain, grabbed the arrow shaft, and pulled it out with all his strength.

"Well"

Xiahou Dun almost broke his steel teeth, and there was an obscure biting sound between the two rows of teeth.

All he could see was that he was holding a wolf-fang arrow in his hand, and on the tip of the arrow was an eyeball. The eyeballs were full of blood, and there were some red and white thin lines connecting Xiahoudun's empty eye sockets.

"Huhu." Xiahou Dun took a few deep breaths, and a stern look flashed through his only remaining right eye.

"The essence and blood of your parents cannot be discarded!"

Ugh!

Only Xiahou Dun can be seen! He actually stuffed the arrow into his mouth, then bit it forcefully, without chewing, and swallowed his eyeballs alive.

"Ah" Shi Huan, a fierce general who rushes into battle, couldn't help but feel nauseous when he saw such a scene.

Xiahou Dun casually threw the arrows on the ground, brandished his iron spear, and screamed: "This general is not dead yet, kill them all!"

Seeing that Xiahou Dun was not dead, Cao Jun couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, but the eyes of the surrounding Cao Jun couldn't help but have a look of fear and admiration. General Xiahou is really a god. We dare not do such a feat.

Although Xiahou Dun held on forcefully and swallowed his eyes, the huge pain in his eye sockets kept coming, impacting his fragile nerves. But he understood that he could not fall down at this time no matter what, so he endured the pain and poked the ground with the barrel of his gun to support his body on the horse.

"General Xiahou is fine. Don't listen to the Han army's nonsense and stop the enemy!" Shi Huan shouted hurriedly. Xiahou Dun made such a huge sacrifice. It would be a pity if Cao's army was defeated.

From a distance, Han Hao also saw this scene.

"Ah? General Yuan Rang, my God"

Han Hao opened his mouth in horror. After all, the scene just now was really shocking. Xiahou Dun actually swallowed his own eyeballs. It was really an anecdote for the ages.

Stories of cannibalism are not uncommon in ancient times. For example, Duke Wen of Jin Dynasty, Chong'er, had to flee the country because he was persecuted by Li Ji and his daughter. One time, he was so hungry that the loyal minister Jie Zitui cut off his own thigh meat and let Chong'er drink the broth.

Especially during times of war, cannibalism is a common thing. For example, the Qin army besieged Handan, the capital of Zhao State. At this time, Zhao State had just experienced the Battle of Changping. 400,000 young people were destroyed in one day. They could only resist the Qin army's attack. The food in the isolated city was exhausted. What should we do? Yikes and eats!

The parents were so hungry that they couldn't do anything to their children, so they made an exchange with their neighbors. You eat my children, and I eat yours. How outrageous is that?

Cao Cao's men also used human flesh as military rations. Due to the constant wars and frequent disasters in the Central Plains, there was a shortage of food and grass. Adviser Cheng Yu suggested that Cao Cao cut off dead human flesh as army rations and call it "human breasts."

Even Uncle Liu Huang, who always prides himself on benevolence and righteousness, has tasted human flesh: Uncle Liu once got separated from his subordinates and fled alone in the wilderness. When he saw a wooden house, he walked up and knocked on the door. A hunter named Liu came out. install.

When Liu An saw Uncle Liu Huang, he hurriedly invited him in. After a while, he brought out a plate of meat for Uncle Liu Huang to enjoy. The hungry uncle Liu Huang naturally feasted on the food and found it very sweet, so he asked Liu An: "What kind of meat is this?"

Liu Andao said: "There is no prey in the house. As a last resort, I killed my wife to entertain the emperor's uncle, hoping to invite Haihan." Uncle Liu Huang was naturally shocked when he heard this, but the meat had already been eaten, and he didn't regret taking the medicine at this moment.

However, although Chong'er, the residents of Handan City, Cao Bing and Liu Huangshu cannibalized human flesh, they all ate the flesh of others. Xiahou Dun did not dare to say that people who ate their own flesh were unprecedented, and they could also be said to be unprecedented.

"Guardian, General Xiahou seems to be unable to hold on any longer." The guard at his side reported.

Han Hao took a closer look and saw that Xiahou Dun was swaying on the horse, but he was barely holding on.

Han Hao's mind started working quickly and he thought: If General Xiahou is defeated, Guan Yu can take advantage of the situation and attack me with his army. General Xiahou will never be defeated!

However, if I lead my army to rescue General Xiahou, what should I do if Liu Bei and Zhang Fei take the opportunity to cross the river and then attack our army with Guan Yu?

"Well, I will personally lead the troops to rescue General Xiahou!"

Han Hao made up his mind and solemnly told the deputy general next to him: "Listen carefully, I will leave five thousand troops and horses for you. If you are stationed on the east bank of the Huai River, please do not take any unauthorized action. You must prevent Liu Bei's army on the other side of the river from crossing the river. Do you understand? ?”

The lieutenant general patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, the guard, but the general will not let Liu Bei cross the river because he has his own life."

Han Hao nodded and turned the horse's head: "Listen to my order, attack the flank of Guan Yu's army and rescue General Xiahou!"

"kill!"

Han Hao divided his troops into half of the ten thousand soldiers and horses. Five thousand soldiers and horses surrounded Han Hao and charged towards Guan Yu's army from behind.

"Listen up, everyone, we must form a tight formation and we will never allow Liu Bei's army to cross the Huaihe River!" the deputy general shouted loudly to the five thousand troops and horses under his command.

Cao's army originally stationed on the east bank of the Huai River was 10,000 strong, but now it was suddenly reduced by half, and the lineup looked a little thin.

But Han Hao took away half of the troops and horses in this way, Zhang Fei couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Brother! What a great opportunity! Now half of the enemy troops on the other side of the river have been divided. There are only 5,000 people left in total, which is less than 41 of our army. If we don't attack now, when will we wait?"

Liu Bei looked at the five thousand Cao troops on the other side of the river, and couldn't help but frown slightly. It would be great if all the enemy troops went to rescue Xiahou Dun, but it's a pity.

But there is nothing that can be done. Nothing is perfect. At this moment, Yunchang has done his best.

"Yide!" Liu Bei said in a deep voice.

Zhang Fei suddenly took a step forward, cupped his fists and said, "I'm here, big brother, just give me orders!"

"You lead an army of 10,000 people and cross the river while taking advantage of the situation. You must defeat the enemy army. I personally lead an army of 10,000 people as your backup. You must defeat the enemy army on the other side of the river and rescue Yun Chang quickly." Liu Bei ordered.

"Got the order!"

Zhang Fei was overjoyed and shouted sternly: "My sons, follow me and kill, defeat the enemy army and coordinate our army!"
