Sun Jian thought for a while: "For justice and not care about the details. If we can take advantage of the chaos of the enemy's retreat, then the people of the Liu Family County should of course sacrifice a little for the great cause of the world. Let the Liu Family and the remaining people of Yanshi contribute to the restoration of Luoyang."

Guan Yu frowned slightly: "I heard that Dong Zhuo has moved away at least two million people in Yin, Henan. Even if the Suo family and Yanshi still have scattered people, the number is probably only thousands or tens of thousands. Because of the food, our tens of thousands of troops have to clean up the last rations of these people, so that they can maintain the army's needs for a month's war. It's only February now, and they will all starve to death if they can't bear the autumn harvest!"

Sun Jian: "There are hundreds of thousands of people in Henan Yin who are scattered and recaptured from Dong Zhe as soon as possible. If they can not starve to death, they will try not to starve to death. But if they are forced to starve to death in order to save hundreds of thousands of people, and 10,000 or 20,000 people in Yanshi, they will be regarded as loyal to the Han Dynasty."

Guan Yu shook his head: "Just try it. It's too early to say this now. I don't think Lu Bu will let someone rob the snatch of the snatch from Zhuyuan Pass. I led my troops westward and turned to Yishui, and collected ships and rafts from Xincheng to enter Yique."

Sun Jian did not stop him. If Guan Yu entered Luoyang too late, he would not be blamed.

On the other hand, Sun Jian could not replicate Guan Yu's method, because even if Sun Jian included the previous capture of the battle with Huaxiong, he could only form a thousand cavalry. If his troops detoured too far along the edge of the mountainous area by land, it would take too much time.

Guan Yu was different. He already had Zhao Yun's three thousand cavalry and two thousand war horses seized when he killed Hua Xiong. If Guan Yu wanted, he could let five thousand men ride horses and detour, leaving three thousand infantry to move slowly. This maneuverability advantage was his greatest capital for detours.

The two armies were each prepared. When they were dawn the next day, they carefully crossed Yingchuan and arrived at the north shore, and investigated the abandoned camp of Hu Zhen and Lu Bu.

I found that it was just a flag that was set up in vain, and nothing valuable was left except the flags and wood. It was obviously a retreat.

"Chasing!" Sun Jian immediately ordered the entire army to grab the territory. However, he was quite sensible and ordered Cheng Pu and Han Dang to search with the newly formed 1,000 cavalrymen to avoid ambushing the dangerous mountain between Shaoshi Mountain and Taishi Mountain.

Seeing that Sun Jian was cautious, Guan Yu didn't say much, and took his men and horses to the west along the southern source of Yingchuan to detour. The source of Yingchuan was forked, one went north, deep into Shaoshi Mountain, and the other went west, along the southern foot of Shaoshi Mountain. Guan Yu and Sun Jian parted ways at this fork in the river.

...

"This plan that Li Wenyou thought was not reliable. He was in Luoyang hundreds of miles away at that time. How could he think of the front-line military situation? Sun Jian asked Cheng Pu and Han to search first, and move forward so cautiously.

If we let them go, we will probably be blocked from retreating to the retreat of Zhuyuan Pass. If we don’t let them go, we will kill at most of these thousand cavalry in a while and will not be able to hurt Guan Yu, Sun Jian is fundamentally."

Hu Zhen, who was ambushed in the dense forest on the west side of Shaoshi Mountain on the west side of the Luyuan Road, observed Sun Jian's march from afar, and felt that it was not easy to deal with.

He could only ambushes two or three thousand people a little. If there were too many ambushing, he would not be able to hide on the hillside. In addition, the preparation time was rushed, so he was just going to ambush the enemy vanguard and get a vote. If the vanguard was left, although it would cause greater casualties to Sun Jian's army, it was unknown whether Hu Zhen could go back alive.

If the three thousand ambush soldiers fight to the death with 20,000 to 30,000 main forces, even if they are cruel to the enemy at the beginning, as long as the enemy fights with you, they will wipe out you sooner or later.

But Hu Zhen has not discussed it personally. Although his intelligence is not very high, he is still more willing to use his brain than Lu Bu who is in a relentless manner. As for Fan Chou, both loyalty and hard work are fine, but he is a reckless man who is not afraid of death.

After thinking about it, Hu Zhen, who felt that it was more important to save himself, chose to retreat temporarily and retreated to Zhuyuan Pass before Cheng Puhan became a blockade.

"Congratulations to Captain Hu for setting up an ambush and returning." As soon as he returned to the Lu Yuan Pass, Lu Bu congratulated Hu Zhen.

Hu Zhen looked gloomy: "General Lu don't want to make fun of him, Hu returned without any merit. But on the way back, I also thought of a new trick."

Lu Bu pretended to smile and supported him: "Oh? I hope to hear the details, Bu will definitely cooperate."

Hu Zhen: "Anyway, the prime minister has to give up Luoyang. Let us fight a war here, which is nothing more than the majesty of killing Sun Jian before leaving. Since this is the case, Sun Jian is still too cautious and not arrogant enough to be unable to perform Li Shangshu's ambushing plan. Then we will find a way to make Sun Jian more proud. Maybe this plan can be used again if it is slightly changed."

Lu Bu: "Oh? How to make Sun Jian proud?"

Hu Zhen: "The reason why Sun Jian was cautious was because he was afraid that the natural danger of Qiyuan Pass was not easy to attack, so he had to fight steadily. It would be better to leave only one or two thousand remaining soldiers in the pass to guard the guard, and the remaining troops retreated to the Liushi County to station, and set up heavy ambush on the mountain road from Qiyuan Pass to Liushi County.

If Sun Jian suffered some casualties and forcibly conquered the Zhuyuan Pass, he would definitely be completely satisfied and would no longer worry about ambushing behind him. Then he would advance lightly thousands of miles a day. Who would have thought that someone would give up the natural dangerous pass but set up an ambush behind the pass?"

Lu Bu's eyes lit up, and then he showed a bit of ruthlessness.

Indeed, ambushing is always ambushed before the Xiong Pass, so there is no ambush after the fall. If there is still enough effort to ambush, wouldn’t it be better to keep the pass?

This is human nature.

But only in the special case of Dong Zhuojun's "I am not sincere, I have been in a long-term relationship with the gate, and I just want to find face before leaving", he will "not keep the gate with all his strength and set up an ambush after the gate is lost."

Because if Sun Jian has to defend the pass with all his strength, he will not work hard to solve the pass with all his strength as long as he suffers. In that way, both sides will still be frozen, which will not satisfy Dong Zhuo's request for quick battle and quick decision to "kill the enemy to have vitality before leaving, kill people to establish authority."

Lu Bu finally hit it off: "Okay, then leave some of the old, weak and injured soldiers a few days ago in this Zhuyuan Pass, and don't defend too hard, so as not to lose his temper when Sun Jian attacks the key points."

The two left more than a thousand people to guard the pass, and sincerely told those who stayed: the army retreated under the order of Prime Minister Dong, and if you can keep it, you can defend it.

In this way, even if these people were captured by Sun Jian after breaking through the barrier, what Sun Jian heard was that "Hu Zhen and Lu Bu's main force had already withdrawn."

Half a day later, Sun Jian indeed arrived at the foot of the Circuit Pass and carried out a tentative attack. Although there were few defenders, the soldiers did not know the truth because they had the support of the heroic Pass, so the tentative attacks of the two days ago were still defended. When Sun Jian was not yet able to tentatively attack, he had no ladders or rushing cars.

However, it's only two days.

On the third day, as Sun Jian was ready, he took out his heavy siege weapon and thought, "Attack for another two days, if the enemy's weakness is pretended, if there are reinforcements on the guards, then I will not let my children die in vain and take a detour to chase Guan Yu."

Fortunately, after Sun Jian built a heavy siege weapon, he attacked for only one day and suffered two or three thousand casualties, Sun Jian captured the Viagra Pass.

For a moment, Sun Jianjun's morale was overwhelmed.

Standing on the Guancheng Tower and looking down at Songshan Mountain on both sides, Sun Jian was as angry as a tiger in his chest:

"Is this the Zhuyuan Pass in the Eight Passes of Luoyang? Take any passes of Luoyang's Eight Passes of Luoyang and you can go straight to Luoyang! Walk out of this Songshan Road and take down the Liu family county, and there are plains in front of you!"

If you look at the Baidu map of later generations, you will know that it is only 5.5 kilometers away from the ruins of the Luyuan Pass to the Liushi County, and it has passed the most dangerous section of the Songshan Road.

The back is getting wider and flatter. After walking the last 11-mile mountain road, the Luoyang Plain is all in front!
