Chapter 1: Crushing Through Barriers
A man stood at an edge of a small hill about 20 li from Xu Chang. The bright afternoon sun shone over him revealing his dark blue vest, some white cloth can be seen wrapped around his body below the chest and a heavy belt with dark purple pants in conjunction with a pair of black light armored boots. He too wore bangles and a blue bandana around his forehead. He looked over the hill edge at the path leading to Guandu. Qiu Huan then held his large sword in the sky. It's fine sharp blade shines under the sun and reflected the light.
"Serpent Fang, you will determine my success or failure in this battle to come. No matter what happens, I promise you this. You will strike fear in the enemy. Show them the might of true swords!" Qiu Huan voice out and sheds his weapon back to its place.
"Qiu Huan, time is beyond us. We must hurry to aid Cao Cao" sprung a voice from behind.
"Master Dun. May I know the reports at Guandu?" Qiu Huan asked.
"Cao Cao's forces are surrounded by Yuan Shao's strong army encamped at all sides from north, south, east and west. It is been said that their camps were stretched over a distance of 90 li" Xiahou Dun replied.
"I see. The enemy is not to be reckoned with".
"Do you know why the fall of Wuchao is of much importance to us?,"
"Due to what Lord Zhang said. It is the enemy's weakness,".
"Apparently. It is believed that Cao Cao's army in Guandu is short of supplies and won't last very long. The fall of Wuchao will cause Yuan Shao's army a huge loss of supplies as well, much more worse off than us. That's why this issue is of much importance,".
"I understand. I will bring down Wuchao compound right before your very eyes, Master Dun," Qiu Huan said finally.
The two then climbed on their steeds together and rode down the path to Guandu along with 3000 troops serving as reinforcements to aid Cao Cao. On the other hand, Zhang Liao together with Xun You will also join the war shortly gathering extra 5000 troops along with a few carts of provisions to last Cao Cao's army in Guandu a little longer before they charge into Yuan Shao's army.
After riding for three days, Qiu Huan and Xiahou Dun have nearly reached Guandu. They stopped at the foots of a rocky mountain to rest before continuing. The two then discuss about what future actions to be taken next.
"Yuan Shao's main camp is to the north of Cao Cao's camp. The southern camp is blocking our way to reach Cao Cao. We need to be cautious when entering Guandu," Xiahou Dun said while looking at the road ahead of them.
"We don't have other choice but to barge our way through. That's the only way to reach our camp," Qiu Huan replied.
"Knowing of this barrier, I've send a spy to the southern camp earlier to examine the area. He should be back by now unless caught by the enemy," Xiahou Dun said.
While the two are ready to set off from their resting place, a figure of a horseman approach them. Xiahou Dun breathes a sign of relief. The spy sent by Xiahou Dun climb down from his horse and explains the situation of Yuan Shao's southern encampment. After hearing the report that the camp was not heavily defended, Xiahou Dun ordered his troops to prepare for an initiative strike against the camp.
"Now we shall charge through the south camp to reach our lord!," Xiahou Dun voice out as Qiu Huan and the troops advance forward.
*** At Yuan Shao's southern encampment, the sentry towers were on full alert. But their alertness now were aimed at Cao Cao instead of the surroundings behind their backs.
"Sir! An army is advancing behind us!," shouted the sentry guard.
"What? Are they reinforcements? Our lord isn't expecting any at the moment," replied one of the majors.
"No sir! It looks like they are the ene..," the sentry guard was cut off by an arrow shot at the forehead.
"Sir! Enemy forces are charging towards us!,"
"It can't be! Close the gates! Close the gates!," the major shouted a command to the troops.
But it was too late. Xiahou Dun has already rush through the gates with his steed killing off any enemy soldiers nearby. Following behind him is Qiu Huan unleashing his large sword, Serpent Fang and slashes any enemy soldiers that came within his view. He slashes off the bellies, heads and other body parts of Yuan Shao's troops all screaming and groaning in pain.
Blood oozes out from various parts of the enemy's bodies and turned the camp into a bloody terrain. Arms, legs and heads can be seen scattered throughout the southern camp mostly consist of enemy soldiers. Xiahou Dun then continued to charge through the camp to reach Cao Cao followed by Qiu Huan and the troops.
By sunset, Cao Cao's encampment was within their view. They rode into the camp and unload some supplies stolen from the southern enemy camp. Even though the supplies weren't in a great number, it still helped the main force until Zhang Liao and Xun You arrival shortly later with a greater amount of provisions.
"I hope Lord Zhang knew about our safe arrival here," Qiu Huan said.
Xiahou Dun smiled. "Of course he'll know about our arrival after seeing the 'sign' we left behind at the south camp,".
Qiu Huan nodded in agreement.
