Chapter 171 ? Take advantage of your illness to kill you
"Why are there insufficient food and grass? How do you become a military officer?" Sun Jian slapped the table and said angrily.
"Lord. It's not that I made arrangements without any reservations, but that Mr. Yuan hasn't transported food for a long time." The quarantine was also very aggrieved and shouted.
"What?!" Sun Jian was stunned, then frowned and said, "What's going on? Could it be that something went wrong in Luyang?"
After all, he was just a military general and had little intestines. Cao Cao thought about it carefully and felt that something was wrong. However, he asked the military officer out first, and then he said to Sun Jian solemnly: "General Sun. Yuan Gonglu is actually narrow-minded. He may have seen our front line win battles and won't give out food and grass for a moment."
"This. Mr. Yuan wouldn't do this?" Sun Jian's face changed when he heard this, but he still believed it and said skeptical.
"Yuan Gonglu and I are childhood friends, and we know the truth." Cao Cao smiled bitterly and shook his head and said.
"Then why don't you ask Meng De to go there?" Sun Jian thought for a while and said to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "Yuan Gaolu has always looked down on me. If I go, it will probably backfire."
"Then I'll go." Sun Jian frowned and finally stood up with great responsibility.
"What should we do if the general goes?" Cao Cao asked with a wry smile.
"Uh!" Sun Jian was also in a dilemma. He was a general and it was too different whether he was in the military camp or not. But if he didn't go.
Who will be sent?
Yuan Shu looked down on Cao Cao, so he sent Zhu Zhi, Huang Gai, and Han Dang to go there. Is it okay?
Damn it.
Sun Jian felt anger in his heart. He bleeded and sacrificed for the Han Dynasty in front, and Yuan Shu in the rear actually did such a thing. It was really...
"I'd better go there. You can't withdraw your troops, right? Besides, I'll go back to Luyang secretly, Dong Zhuo and Zhang Xiu won't know."
Sun Jian sighed, stood up and said.
"Oh, that's all." Cao Cao thought about it and sighed.
This matter is of great importance, and Sun Jian dared not delay. That night, he only secretly told the general in the army, and then took more than a hundred cavalry to leave the camp while the night was falling and galloped south.
.............
In the city of Luoyang.
Even during the day, there are few pedestrians on the streets. Even if there are people, most of them are alone and dare not go out collectively, and they are in a hurry.
A large number of soldiers were patrolling the city. If anyone was disliked, they would ask questions and investigate them if they caught them.
The bodies are constantly transported down in front of you, transported to a place not far away, and burned in a concentrated manner. If the bodies are left alone, a plague will arise.
The injured soldiers wailed day and night.
The entire Luoyang City was once again shrouded in fear.
But this huge Luoyang City is as stable as Mount Tai, silent.
There are still some ministers, ministers, and clans in Luoyang City, and there are some armed slaves in secret, but no one dares to move.
It's because of Zhang Xiu.
However, Zhang Xiu himself, after patrolling the city walls when he came back, he had been hidden in the abyss and stayed in his house and stopped moving.
It seemed like a great god sitting outside the thirty-three levels of heaven, although he did not make any sound, he exuded a shocking divine power.
Fubo is in the sea, and ghosts and monsters dare not look up.
In the Mansion of General Cavalry, Zhang Xiu was wearing a white robe and a crown on his head. He was dressed very elegantly and sat reading a book.
"General. Li Ru and Li Su, and Liu Biao asked for a meeting." Dian Wei walked in from outside and bowed and said.
"Please come in." Zhang Xiu smiled slightly when he heard this, and probably he had done it.
"No." Dian Wei Yingnuo said, turned around and went down. Not long after, Li Ru, Li Su and Liu Biao walked in from outside together. After a greeting, they sat down.
"Two, what's the situation?" Zhang Xiu looked at Li Su and Liu Biao.
Li Su and Liu Biao have just returned, and they are covered in dust.
"Han Shouhou predicted things like a god, and then Li Shu had already persuaded Yuan Shu." Li Su said happily. They went to see Dong Zhuo first, and he received a lot of rewards.
"Then I gave Yuan Shu the imperial edict." Liu Biao bowed and said. Compared with Li Su, he was much more miserable.
This time, I helped Zhang Xiu with all his reputation.
"Okay, it's so good." Zhang Xiu also showed a little joy on his face, and then he was very kind: "You two have worked hard all the way, so let's go and have a rest."
"Thank you, Han Shouhou." Liu Biao and Li Su responded, and were not interested in the sect, so they stood up and left.
"Dian Wei, prepare the armor and prepare the horses, I'm going to the south of the city." Zhang Xiu first looked up and called out to Dian Wei outside the door, then said to Li Ru: "Sir, go and have a look with me."
"Okay." Li Ru smiled slightly, very obedient.
Zhang Xiu's plan was successful, and Sun Jian's army would inevitably have shortage of food, so there was great potential. He was now calm.
Not long after, Zhang Xiu, who was wearing armor, turned over his horse and galloped to the south with more than a hundred light cavalry including Li Ru, Dian Wei, etc., and reached the southern city wall.
The two generals Fan Chou and Hu Zhen received the news and came to welcome him. Zhang Xiu talked with them for a moment, climbed to the top of the city, and watched Sun Jian’s camp.
Sun Jian has not clamored to attack the city for three days. On the one hand, it may have been attacking Luoyang for half a month, which needs to be corrected. On the other hand, it may be short of food.
"What do you think sir?" Zhang Xiu withdrew his eyes and turned to Li Rudao with a smile.
"You can be smart." Li Ru had a plan in his heart, and said with a smile.
"How to take wisdom?" Zhang Xiu still smiled. Li Ru knew that Zhang Xiu was joking with him. How could Zhang Xiu, such a wise general, not know how to take wisdom?
Li Ru was in a very good mood and said with a smile: "Can you send someone to write a thousand letters, send a light cavalry around the other party's camp, and shoot the letter into the camp. The letter states that Yuan Shu, Sun Jian and Cao Cao had a gap, and Yuan Shu would not send food to Sun Jian, and Cao Cao. At present, Sun Jian's army has reached the bottom. In this way, Sun Jian's army will be in chaos. You can take advantage of the night to rush forward and seize Sun Jian's camp."
Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "Mr.'s plan is very consistent with my wish. Please prepare the officials of the pen and pen to write letters. It is best to understand the words in a simple and easy way."
"No." Li Ru responded to the promise and immediately turned around and went down.
Fan Chou and Hu Zhen next to him also showed joy. The battle to defend the city was really hard, and the tigers in Jiangdong were well-known.
If it were Zhang Xiu and Li Ru's plan, wouldn't Sun Jian be able to capture it?
Zhang Xiu immediately asked Dian Wei to send someone to inform Wu Kuang, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others, and they all went to the study room of General Cavalry's Mansion to sit down.
Zhang Xiu looked at the three of them, the excited Zhang Liao, the calm Gao Shun, and the calm Wu Kuang.
"Wen Yuan, are you anxious to wait?" Zhang Xiu asked Zhang Liao with a smile.
"I've been hungry and thirsty for a long time." Zhang Liao nodded vigorously and said.
"Okay. I will take Wen Yuan as the pioneer tonight and attack Sun Jian's camp at night." Zhang Xiu said with a smile.
"No." Zhang Liao responded heavily, showing joy. Gao Shun and Wu Kuang showed doubts. Zhang Xiu talked to the two of them about his plan, and saw that they were stunned. Then he smiled and said, "General Gao is next. General Wu leads the infantry again. Five thousand cavalry are waiting for the formation. When Sun Jian's camp is in chaos, he will go to cover and kill the soldiers."
"No." The three of them agreed with a loud voice, then said goodbye and prepared.
Zhang Xiu also stood up happily and looked south. He pressed the tiger in Jiangdong to the ground tonight and rubbed it. It was almost time for the princes to fight against Dong.
With Zhang Xiu's order, Li Ru prepared a thousand letters. Hua Xiong led another thousand elite cavalry, brought bows and arrows, tied the letters to arrows, and lined up to get out of the city.
"I've shot it right, don't shoot outside the camp." Hua Xiong yelled.
"No." The cavalry all responded to the promise, and then followed Hua Xiong, rushed out of the city gate, and headed towards Sun Jian's camp.
On the way, they were divided into two horses, one team heading to the left and the other team heading to the right, and walked around the camp.
"What's going on?!!!"
Of course, Sun Jian’s camp was not comparable to Yuan Shao’s camp. The soldiers were energetic and vigilant to observe the situation. At this moment, Huang Gai was even inspecting the camp and climbing the camp gate.
When he saw the Luoyang city gate open and a group of people rushed out, he was a little surprised. But he immediately calmed down.
"It's just one or two thousand cavalry, what's the use? Do you want to use cavalry to rob my camp?" Huang Gai sneered, and then ordered: "Strong archers, crossbow archers are ready."
"No." The archers and crossbow archers all agreed and prepared. But Hua Xiong and the others did not want to shoot against Huang Gai.
Arrows have an effective range of killing, and this range is different from the range. After calculations, Hua Xiong and others shot out the arrow letter in their hands when the arrow could be shot into Sun Jian's camp, but they would not be shot to death.
Their men and horses dispersed and shot into Sun Jian's camp from many places. After shooting, they followed their respective officers and finally gathered at the gate of the city and followed Huaxiong into the city.
In Sun Jian's camp, no arrow was released. The archers and crossbow archers all looked at each other and put down the arrows in their hands.
Immediately, someone picked up the falling arrow letter.
"I believe!!!" A soldier frowned and took off the letter, but he knew him this thing, but he didn't know him.
"Let me see." The literate soldier immediately avoided the hand and then read it out loud.
And as the soldier read it out, all the soldiers' faces changed.
Yuan Shu and lord Cao Cao had a gap and did not give food or grass? Now there is shortage of food in the military camp?
The lack of food is not only a headache for the people above, but also about whether the soldiers below can eat enough.
If you can't even eat a full meal, then what else can you fight? Just leave and go home.
Of course, Huang Gai also read it. When he saw the letter tied to the arrow, he realized that something was wrong. After opening it, his face changed drastically.
"Quick. Collect the letters quickly and order the soldiers not to be circulated or discussed, and those who violate the orders shall be killed."
Huang Gai ordered loudly.
