In the next few days, Sun Jian sent troops to attack the city every day, but the defense measures of Sishui Pass were very good, and there were also tens of thousands of Liangzhou soldiers and horses in the pass, with sufficient troops, so he returned in vain every time he attacked the city.

During this period, Gao Cheng also sent Chen Dao and Zhou Tai to lead the troops to fight. Speaking of which, in this world, his troops were either in field battles or defense, and it was the first time he faced a solid city wall like Sishui Pass. He didn't have much experience in siege.

Therefore, Gao Cheng used war instead to train his soldiers to attack the abilities of his soldiers. With Sun Jian as a reference, Chen Dao, Zhou Tai and Lu Dai, the experience of the three men has increased rapidly. I believe that after this training, their abilities can increase a lot.

...

In the Sour Zao Camp, the army of princes was slowly moving towards Sishui Pass. Among them, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and other princes had received the war reports from Sun Jian.

Among them, Yuan Shu was overjoyed after hearing the vanguard killing the Liangzhou general Hu Zhen. Sun Jian was dependent on his power. Now his younger brother has made great contributions, and his elder brother is also glorious in his face.

The lieutenant sent by Sun Jian reported the news of the lack of food and grass. Yuan Shu immediately stated that even if his soldiers were short of food, they would not let Sun Jian's soldiers starve.

However, Yuan Shu's nest is far away in Nanyang. Now the food and grass of the princes' army relies on Jizhou to supply all the food and grass. Yuan Shu personally searched for Han Fu and urged him to transport the food and grass from Jizhou.

Yuan Shu was happy, but Yuan Shao felt dissatisfied. In the central army tent, he held the military newspaper and frowned slightly. In front of him was the counselor Xu You. When he saw Yuan Shao's expression, he couldn't help but smile.

"Lord, Sun Jian, Gao Cheng killed Hu Zhen and made great contributions. However, one of these two people was a highway person and the other was a remnant of eunuchs. They could no longer make them make great contributions. If they conquered Sishui, the reputation of the highway would be at its peak and threatened the lord's position as leader!"

Xu You knew a lot about Yuan Shao's personality, so he said tentatively.

As expected, Yuan Shao sighed slightly when he heard this and said, "Highway is a good luck. Sun Jian is a fierce tiger in the world. The Sun family is full of extraordinary generals. Such talents have defected to him, which has made him a contribution in vain!"

Then his eyes flashed and he asked in a low voice: "Ziyuan, can there be a plan to prevent Sun Jian and Gao Cheng from conquering Sishui?"

Xu You smiled on his face. Yuan Shao was the leader of the princes. If he wanted to plot against Sun Jian and Gao Cheng, he had a solution. As soon as he thought about it, he thought of a solution.

"This matter is simple. I heard that Sun Jian is eager to make contributions and the march speed is too fast. There is not much food or grass. Well, Yan Liang and Wen Chou are now protecting the baggage in the rear. It is better for the lord to secretly give a command to let the two pretend to be bandits and lead elite troops to intercept the food and grass transported from Jizhou! On the one hand, it can make Sun Jian cut off food, and on the other hand, it can continue to recruit soldiers and strengthen our army's strength!"

After hearing this, Yuan Shao nodded repeatedly. Every time he encountered difficulties, Xu You always had a solution. He immediately said, "Just do what Ziyuan said, I will give Yan Liangwen Chou the order! With two people taking action, even if Han Fu sent Pan Feng to transport grain, he would definitely not be able to save the food!"

As the leader of the alliance, Yuan Shao naturally knew the route of transportation of food and grass, and asked his subordinates to attack Jizhou to intercept all the food and grass. In less than two days, a visit came to report that the grain transporters in Jizhou were intercepted and killed, and the princes' camp was probably out of food for two days.

Even the army of princes lost food and grass, how can they transport grain to Sun Jian? The captain under Sun Jian received the news and his expression changed wildly. He immediately rushed back to Sishui Pass and reported the news to Sun Jian.

...

The camp was silent. After Sun Jian and Gao Cheng received the news, they were all silent. Zhu Zhi, Han Dang and others were full of anger, and Cheng Pu even cursed.

"The most poisonous plan to break the enemy is to cut off food! I didn't expect that Sun Jian, who was not defeated by Hua Xiong's men, was defeated because of his friendly forces!" After a while, Sun Jian gritted his teeth and said.

These generals are extremely physically strong. Even if they are hungry for several days and nights, they still have physical strength. However, their soldiers do not have such a state and strength. If they are hungry for one day, their combat power will decrease. If they are hungry for three days, they will have to wait to die.

Gao Cheng said: "The food and grass of the Allied troops depend on the supply of Jizhou. If there is no food and grass, we will have to withdraw our troops. When the main force of the princes comes, the first contribution to breaking the Sishui River will be gone... Someone will inevitably interfere in this!"

Zhu Zhi said helplessly: "Even if you know that someone is trying to interfere, there is no way. The camp only has two days of food left. With some food and grass sent by the general, it will support it for up to three days. If the food and grass are gone in three days, our army will be in danger!"

Yuan Shu was quite responsible. He said that even if his troops were hungry, they would have to supply Sun Jian's food and grass. Now that Jizhou's food and grass are not available, he gritted his teeth and really sent some of the food stored in his army, which moved Sun Jian a little.

At this time, Xi Zhicai suddenly said, "Lord, General Sun, the matter has come to this point, why don't we take the initiative?"

Everyone turned their eyes over, and Xi Zhicai smiled and said, "The current situation is that the army lacks food and grass. The general can take the initiative to secretly spread the news of food shortage to Sishui Pass and look like retreating. If Hua Xiong can't bear it, he will definitely take the opportunity to intercept the camp. Our army can take the opportunity to ambush. As long as we are prepared, we will definitely be able to leave Hua Xiong. If there is no Hua Xiong at that time, Sishui Pass can be broken by a blink of an eye!"

"This is indeed a good plan! But what if Hua Xiong is not deceived?" Zhu Zhi asked with a frown.

Xi Zhicai smiled, spread his hands, and said, "Then we can only really retreat! Our army lacks food, and it is true to retreat. If Hua Xiong is really not fooled, he must be a talented general, with patience and resilience. At that time, he can only wait for the main force of the Allied Army to come and force the challenge!"

Sun Jian slapped the wooden table in front of him, took a deep breath, and said, "Just follow Mr. Xi's plan! If Hua Xi is not deceived, it is also fate, and no one else can blame him!"

Then he set his eyes on Gao Cheng and said, "Brother Ziming, our two soldiers must work hard this time. At that time, the four generals under my command will join forces with your three generals Chen, Zhou, and Gao. As long as Hua Xiong dares to come, he will definitely be able to come and go!"

Sun Jian acted quickly and made arrangements quickly. He sent his confidant soldiers to deliberately pretend to be deserters. He was captured by the Dong army soldiers of Sishui Pass, and the news reached Hua Xiong of Sishui Pass.

At this time, Hua Xiong and Li Su were sweating profusely sending the envoy sent by Dong Zhuo away. When they heard that Sun Jian's army had cut off food and grass and were ready to withdraw, they immediately looked at each other.

"Such coincidental? The Prime Minister just ordered us to commit crimes and make meritorious service, and Sun Jian cut off food and retreated. Is this the credit that God deliberately gave us to us when he sees us unlucky?" Li Su said hesitantly.

Hua Xiong was shocked and shouted: "Sun Jian's army's food and supplies have been cut off. I will never stop. I will let me know the news. Tonight, I will lead my troops to intercept the camp and will definitely cut off Sun Jian's head!"

Li Su frowned and said quickly: "General, don't send troops. As long as Sun Jian withdraws his troops, we will make contributions even if we guard Sishui Pass and make contributions. If we take the initiative to leave the pass, we will be at risk of defeat!"

"What are the risks? Haven't you heard that Sun Jian's army is short of food and has deserted soldiers? Such a large army is vulnerable! Tian Yu is responsible for the blame for not taking the blame. The General of the Central Army is probably worried too much!" Hua Xiong said in a deep voice.

Li Su shook his head, "What if this is Sun Jian's plan? We take the initiative to come out of seclusion and hit his mind!"

Hua Xiong's face changed slightly, and what the other party said made sense. He waved his hand and immediately sent hundreds of horses to inquire about the news. Soon after, the news was true.

"General Zhonglang, you have no objection now, right?" Hua Xiong said.

Li Su frowned. Just in case, he came to the wall in person, flexing his five senses and powerful spiritual power, and sensing the camp in the distance. There was a faint movement from the other camp, as if he was preparing to withdraw his troops.

"It's a pity that my spiritual power has not been broken through now. If I break through to the realm and become a soul-refining power, I can practice the Mingjing method rewarded by the Prime Minister to the realm of Miles of Miles, and see every move of Sun Jian's camp!" Li Su thought hatefully in his heart.

When Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, he personally surrendered the unparalleled general Lu Bu for the other side and made great contributions. Therefore, after becoming the prime minister, Dong Zhuo rewarded a soul-refining technique to reward merit.

Unfortunately, Li Su’s qualifications are not very good. Even with the excellent soul refining skills, he has not made much progress and has been trapped in the ninth level of soul cultivation and cannot make progress.
