Chapter 187? Sun Jian, is Cao Cao scared?
From Nanyang County to Henan County, there are only three avenues, and there are three Taigu Passes to guard the dangerous areas, but there are still many mountain roads.
After Zhang Xiu captured Luyang, he sent three teams of messengers, scattered three small paths, and went to Lubu in the north, and reported the letter to Li Ru's military camp.
Inside Dong Zhuo’s military camp.
Because there was no war, the atmosphere in the barracks was a bit loose.
However, Li Ru was steady, Lu Bu, Hua Xiong, Fan Chou, Hu Zhen and others all suffered from Sun Jian's losses, so they tried their best to restrain their soldiers and were quite prepared.
This team was nominally led by Zhang Xiu. Therefore, the central army's tent was occupied by Lu Bu. As the entourage supervisor, Li Ru had a small tent next to the tent.
At this moment, the wind and the sun were warm. Li Ru was wearing thin clothes and sat behind the table to watch the bamboo slips.
"Sir. Han Shouhou summoned him." At this moment, he hurriedly walked in from outside and reported.
Li Ru's eyes were slightly brighter, and after gently pinching his beard, he waved his right hand. The clerk was tactful and retreated. Li Ru put down the bamboo slips, got up and walked out.
After he arrived at the central army's tent, he found that Lu Bu was no longer wearing a mask, and Liangzhou's powerful generals were lined up on both sides, with more than ten people.
Li Ru understood and showed a hint of joy on his face.
"Mr. Li." The generals did not dare to be negligent and bowed. Li Ru returned the salute with his fists, then looked up and asked Lu Bu, "Lu Hou, but is there any news about Han Shou Hou?"
"That's right." Lu Bu's expression was a bit strange, with joy, but also with jealousy, which was quite complicated.
"Han Shouhou occupied Luyang and killed Yuan Shu. What should we do next? Please give me advice." Lu Bu immediately bowed to Li Ru and said.
The generals didn't know the news before this. After hearing Lu Bu's words, the tent suddenly became hustle and bustle.
"Hahahaha. It's true that he is Han Shouhou. "You must win the attack and win the battle." A big victory will only be late, and you won't be out of here." Hua Xiong happily patted his knees and said with a laugh.
Among the generals of Dong Zhuo and his group, he was close to Xu Rong and Zhang Xiu.
Besides, he was defeated by Sun Jian and never forgot to take revenge. Now that Zhang Xiu has occupied Luyang and killed Yuan Shu, Sun Jian will inevitably be in a dilemma. This is a good opportunity to take revenge.
The other generals also showed joy and applauded Zhang Xiu and were full of eyebrows.
When Lu Bu saw this scene, he felt even more uncomfortable.
Missing him, Lu Bu, he thought that he was a hero in the world and had extraordinary force. The only person in the world who could go along with him was Zhang Xiu, the Han Shouhou.
But he led the troops to fight, but Zhang Xiu won consecutive victories.
Why!
When Li Ru received the accurate letter, he put down his burden and his smile became more and more refreshing. Seeing that the generals were talking, he did not scold him. Instead, he smiled and came to the seat beside Lu Bu.
It was not until the generals' excitement passed and the discussion in the tent gradually became scarce. Li Ru looked up and said, "General Shouhou of Han is invincible in the world. Just Yuan Shu is just a sign selling his first place."
"Come." Li Ru shouted loudly.
Although Lu Bu is in the position of commander at this moment, this is actually Zhang Xiu's position. If Zhang Xiu were here, Li Ru would not compete with Zhang Xiu. Now only Li Ru can make the decision.
"Sir." A sir came in from outside and bowed to salute.
"Tell me the matter, go to Luoyang quickly and report my merits to the court." Li Ru drank water and did not forget the well. His first order was to report my merits to Zhang Xiu.
"No." The little official was also happy, and agreed and went down.
"Hu Zhen. You sent people to Taigu Pass, Yique Pass, and Zhuyuan Pass to shout this matter. Among these three passes, there are also Yuan Shu's generals. Once they hear the news, the morale of the army will be in chaos."
Li Ru turned his head and looked at Hu Zhen, the general sitting in the middle, and ordered.
"No." Hu Zhen responded with a loud bang and went down immediately.
"My generals. I think Sun Jian will leave soon after. You can rest and wait, take over the pass, and then go south to meet with Han Shouhou and wipe out Cao Cao and Sun Jian."
Li Ru's right arm shook forward and said with great enthusiasm.
"promise."
Lu Bu and the generals agreed.
Then the news spread. The soldiers suddenly realized that it was not the general Zhang Xiu, but Lu Bu and Li Ru who led them here.
To be honest, if the soldiers had known this news, they would be worried.
Let’s not mention Li Ruwen for the time being.
Sun Jian is a fierce tiger in the east of the Yangtze River and is invincible. Lu Bu, Hua Xiong, Fan Chou, Hu Zhen and other generals are all defeated by Sun Jian, and they are not worthy of praise.
Only the general Zhang Xiu is the military soul.
Win every battle, always win the general.
Zhang Xiu led the army, with natural morale of 10,000
Lu Bu and Li Ru led the troops, and the soldiers must have muttered in their hearts. But now that the matter has been exposed, the morale of the soldiers has been greatly boosted.
Even the little soldier knew what it meant to kill Yuan Shu in Luyang.
The morale of Dong Zhuo's 80,000 horse infantry team has been rising steadily.
.............
In Taigu Guanzhong, Sun Jian was bare-chested and practicing a big gun. He was strong and danced with a big gun, majestic.
There were countless wounds on his shirtless upper body, but they were all in his chest.
"General Sun is really good at shooting."
Cao Cao stood not far away by holding the sword, watching Sun Jian practice the gun. After Sun Jian finished practicing his gun with a set of gun techniques, Cao Cao came up and praised him.
"Meng De is too good, my marksmanship is not worth mentioning." Sun Jian threw the big gun to his personal soldiers and shook his head slightly.
When he was in Luoyang, Zhang Xiu went out of the city to fight him and did not dare to confront him.
This time, Zhang Xiu stationed his troops outside the pass and challenged him repeatedly, but he did not dare to fight.
What's the use of good marksmanship? If you are not the best in the world, there is nothing to show off.
Cao Cao was a wise man. Seeing Sun Jian's face, he guessed five or six, and he didn't continue talking about this topic.
At this moment, a personal soldier walked in from outside and reported: "Report to the lord, General Cao, and Zhang Xiu's camp took action."
"Huh?" Sun Jian and Cao Cao looked at each other, and then did not dare to neglect. The two of them were dressed neatly, climbed up to the top of the city, and looked up.
I saw a group of people coming to the gate, but strangely did not approach the gate and stopped at the periphery.
"What is this to do? Are you scolding?" Sun Jian frowned.
The next moment, the puzzle is revealed.
"Listen to Sun Jian on the city, Cao Cao. My general, General Cavalry, Duke Zhang of Han Shou, led 5,000 infantry to bypass Hulao Pass, and had attacked Luyang and killed Yuan Shu. If the two generals could open the door and surrender, they would not blame him. Otherwise, they would kill you and wait for the whole family."
The pair of men was very majestic, with a very strong lung capacity, a very bright voice, and they were talking in Luoyang Mandarin. The voice swept from the bottom of the pass, causing an uproar in the city.
"What? Luyang City was captured? My home is in Luyang."
"How could this happen???? What should we do now?"
Many of the soldiers present were Nanyang children recruited by Yuan Shu from Nanyang County, and of course some soldiers were also in Luyang City, so they were naturally panicked.
But the bigger panic is the situation.
Even the small soldiers knew that Luyang was the place to store grain. Although Yuan Shu was useless, he was the soul of the three armies. It was entirely up to Yuan Shu to mobilize food and grass in Nanyang to support the front.
Furthermore, Zhang Xiu was a general who was defending Luyang. They were now considered to be attacked from both sides.
It is right for soldiers to serve as soldiers and eat food. If they die on the battlefield, they will die as much as possible. But no one hopes that a war is doomed to fail.
"Don't make noise. This is Zhang Xiu's trick. In order to shake our military morale, the officers listen, who dares to make noise again, and behead them immediately." Sun Jian shouted loudly, full of momentum.
"promise."
Sun Jian's prestige was extremely high, and the soldiers immediately did not dare to make noise and bowed to their promises. After calming down, they thought about it.
Too.
You say that if Luyang City is broken, it will be broken? What is the evidence? Who can’t tell the empty words and white teeth?
What, it turns out to be a scam, wasting our feelings.
After the soldiers figured it out, their morale naturally recovered.
After giving the order, Sun Jian smiled and shook his head at Cao Cao and said, "Use this little trick to disrupt our army's morale. Zhang Xiu has no choice but to do anything."
"The others are in charge of the camp outside the city. How could they go to Luyang? Besides, even if he goes to Luyang, just five thousand elite soldiers, how could he quickly break through Luyang? I have already ordered Huang Gai and Han Dang to rescue him, and it is even more foolproof."
"General Sun said very much." Cao Cao also showed a little smile on his face and nodded.
OK, OK.
Zhang Xiu was helpless and even used such scams. Do you really think they were scared?
"The victory lies with me. Let's have a drink." Sun Jian felt very happy and shouted at Cao Cao, saying.
"Okay." Of course, Cao Cao was in a bad mood. Seeing Zhang Xiu being defeated, he had no choice but to do anything. After applauding, the two of them got off the juncture and returned to the hall of Guan Ling Mansion, first untied their armor, and then sat down together.
Soon after, a personal soldier came up with hot wine and food. Sun Jian and Cao Cao began to drink. After three rounds of wine, Sun Jian felt slightly hot and slightly turned away his clothes, revealing his majestic chest muscles.
"Meng De. What are you going to do after you wipe out Dong Zhuo and Zhang Xiu?" Sun Jian raised his head and asked Cao Cao with a smile.
During this period of time, he admired Cao Cao quite well. Everyone was loyal minister of the Han Dynasty and they were sympathetic.
Cao Cao really considered this issue.
He is strategically despised the enemy. Dong Zhuo is a paper tiger and can definitely clear it.
Cao Cao replied without hesitation: "I would like to be a general in the Western Expedition and send troops to Liangzhou. I will purge Han Sui, Ma Teng and other rebels, and connect with the Western Regions."
"Good ambition." Sun Jian nodded with a smile. He was full of confidence in Cao Cao, and the person in front of him must be able to do it.
Although Ma Teng and Han Sui are not easy to deal with.
"I dare to ask General Sun's ambition." Good friends are those who come and go, and Cao Cao bowed and asked.
"If the world is pacified, I hope to stay in the court to be a general of cavalry or general of chariots." Sun Jian also obviously had fantasy and said with a smile. After a pause, Sun Jian sighed: "Meng De also knows that my family is a prominent family in Jiangdong (a large population), but it has been a poor family for generations. Although I have outstanding military achievements, I have been a county magistrate. Not long ago, I became the county magistrate of Changsha. I have planned for my descendants. I need to raise reputation in the court and improve my family."
