The night approached like a haze and became thicker, as if the darkness was rising from all sides at the same time, even flowing down from high places. The gloomy darkness of the night was as miserable as when a funeral was held, and the whole nature seemed to be...
Wear mourning clothes.
In a dense forest ten miles outside Sishui Pass, Li Jue waited there quietly. He looked at the rich night and thought to himself: "God is really helping me. This kind of night can just cover the hiding of the army."
"What time is it?" Li Jue asked Li Tie beside him softly.
"It's almost midnight." Li Tie saw Li Jue's anxious state of mind and said, "General, Gao Fei's troops will definitely come. I have followed the general's instructions."
Li Jue said "hmm", looked at the dense forest on the other side of the official road, and said softly: "I don't know how prepared Guo Si, Xu Rong and the others are."
Li Tiedao: "Since Li Ru and others are willing to obey the general, Guo Si and Xu Rong must not dare to disobey."
"You don't understand!" Li Jue shook his head, "Li Ru is a cunning and cunning person, and I have never been convinced by him, so there was a quarrel between the two of us. But what happened today makes me feel weird,
Li Ru actually agreed to accept my command without even retorting, which really puzzles me."
Li Tie also remembered what Gao Fei said, telling him to be wary of Li Ru, but he knew nothing about Li Ru. At this time, hearing Li Jue's worry, he held up his hands and said: "General, let me go to the other side and take a look.
Well, if there's anything wrong, I can give the general some air!"
Li Jue nodded and said, "Okay, you go and have a look. Come back quickly."
"promise!"
Li Tie took four people to follow him and moved quickly towards the dense forest on the opposite side.
In the dense forest on the other side, Guo Bang and his men were well hidden. From the outside, it was impossible to see what was going on inside. In order not to arouse suspicion, Guo Bang also ordered people to capture many birds and imprison them.
A large birdcage made the whole forest emit very clear bird calls. Often there are no sounds of birds and beasts in the forest where there are ambushes. This is also a common sense.
Although Guo Si has a slow temper, he has a clear mind. Although he is not very talented, he still has some tricks. When he was in Liangzhou, he was just a horse thief. In order to avoid being pursued by the government, he hid in the mountains for half a year.
. Therefore, he is very familiar with mountain warfare and has a very clear understanding of the habits of birds and beasts. He has also used this method to successfully ambush many times.
He was riding a horse slowly and leisurely, holding the reins with one hand and gently stroking the horse's mane with the other. His legs were hanging empty in the air, dangling his legs from time to time, humming folk songs silently in his heart.
.In his opinion, this beautiful night is a good time to sing. If he were not in an ambush, he would definitely sing a song to express his feelings.
"General, someone is coming from the other side."
Guo Bang said "Oh" and said slowly: "I guess Li Laoer can't wait any longer. Send someone over to check on the situation here and bring him to me."
"promise!"
Not long after, Li Tie and his four men were brought to Guo Si. As soon as they met, they held their hands and said: "Little man Li Tie, please see General Guo."
Guo Si didn't even look at Li Tie, and asked slowly: "What's the matter with you?"
"General Li asked the villain to come over and take a look at what's going on here..." Li Tie was only halfway through his words when he heard a bird chirping in the forest, which made him curious, "Bird chirping?"
"Ah, it's the chirping of birds. It's a pity that your general doesn't like my hobbies and finds them troublesome. However, getting some birds in the forest can indeed help improve the success of the ambush." Guo Si explained, "You go back.
Tell your general that everything on my side is ready. As long as the enemy enters the ambush circle in a while, I will definitely intercept the enemy's return. Your general loves to charge into battle, so leave the enemy's front team to him.
.”
Li Tie looked around and saw that the people around him were hiding very cleverly. He could tell that Guo Bang was a master in ambush warfare. He raised his hand to Guo Bang and asked, "Where is General Xu?"
Guo Bang said: "Back there, don't worry. Since Li Ru has agreed to obey your general's dispatch, Xu Rong will naturally not escape before the battle. You go back and tell your general that he can fight with confidence, as long as he cuts off the enemy at the waist."
, Xu Rong and I will fight out immediately."
Li Tiedao: "That villain has resigned, and I will go back and report to General Li."
After walking out of the dense forest where Guo Si was, Li Tie whispered to a person next to him: "You will take the opportunity to pee in a while, leave here, and notify the lord with a secret contact method. Tell the lord, be careful on the right side of the official road.
The birds chirping there are man-made.”
"promise!"
Watching Li Tie leave, Guo Bang said: "This Li Tie is much more stable than Li Lao Er. It seems that Li Lao Er will have one more confidant in the future."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a commotion behind him. When Guo Bang heard this sound, he immediately turned his head and shouted angrily: "Don't want to live anymore? Whoever moves again will have his feet chopped off!"
Sure enough, as soon as Guo Si's words came out, the commotion behind him stopped. His subordinates all knew that Guo Si was slow-tempered on the surface, but in fact he strictly abided by the law of time in his heart. Therefore, when he sent troops with Li Jue,
Always able to strike at the right time.
Not long after, footsteps sounded again, and they also broke some branches, making a very clear cracking sound. This sound was very harsh in the dark night, and it made Guo Bang very harsh when he heard it, and he immediately said angrily: "Grab it!"
Get up, pull it out and chop it!"
"General Guo, do you want to kill me?"
Guo Bang's ears suddenly stood up. He was very familiar with this voice. It belonged to Li Ru. He was very puzzled. He turned around and saw Li Ru walking over wearing a black cloak. He immediately got off his horse and asked
He said: "Master Li? You didn't guard Sishui Pass, but you came here. Is there something wrong?"
"General Guo is different." Li Ru cupped his hands, took out a military talisman from his sleeve, and asked, "Does General Guo recognize this thing?"
Guo Bang took a closer look and saw that it was actually a military talisman. A black bear was engraved on the military talisman, but two wings grew out of the black bear's back. When he saw it, his face was suddenly shocked, and he hurriedly bowed again:
"I don't know what Mr. Li's mission is. Fortunately, Guo Si will live up to his mission."
Li Ru said calmly: "Anyone who sees the military talisman, such as the grand master, must obey the orders. General Guo Si, I now order you to retreat slowly and immediately, and lead your men to garrison at Hulao Pass."
Guo Bang was startled and asked: "Master Li...this...is Li Jue..."
"General Guo, this is the military talisman given by the Grand Master. You are also a capable general of the Flying Bear Army. Did you forget the oath you made when you joined the Flying Bear Army? Or do you want to betray the Grand Master?" Li Ru interrupted.
Guo Si's words were very sharp.
"Guo Si doesn't dare. Guo Si is loyal to the Grand Master and has no second thoughts, but... Guo Si doesn't quite understand..."
Li Rudao: "You don't need to understand that there are some things that are not good if you know too much. Sometimes, pretending to be deaf and dumb can achieve great achievements. General Guo, please give the order to retreat and leave here quietly.
.”
Guo Si hesitated for a moment, nodded helplessly, and replied: "Guo Si takes the order!"
Li Ru turned around and walked away, along the path in the dense forest, and gradually disappeared into the night.
"General, what should we do now? Retreat?"
"Retreat!" Guo Bang glanced at the unusually quiet dense forest opposite, and then remembered Li Ru's abnormality in the hall today. He vaguely guessed some clues in his heart, sighed, and said calmly, "Li Laoer, it seems that you
It would be a big mistake to offend Li Ru."

### Gao Fei, Sun Jian and their respective generals were already impatient to wait, but they were still worried because Li Jue had mobilized 50,000 troops, 30,000 cavalry, and 20,000 infantry.
, far surpassing them in terms of military strength by several times. However, in order to seize the first success of the coalition's crusade against Dong Zhuo, the two of them also made careful calculations, and with the opinions of Jia Xu and Xun You, they formulated this plan.
strategy.
Because Li Jue set up an ambush, he buried 50,000 troops in a dense forest ten miles outside Sishui Pass. The woods were very large, and there was no hiding place except the woods there. Therefore, Gao Fei took all the troops he and Sun Jian had.
The cavalry was divided into eight parts, and they set up ambushes again in Bagua directions away from Li Jue's ambush location. When the time came, they rushed out from all eight directions together, using the rapid maneuverability of the cavalry to break up the enemy's formation.
Of course, the most important thing is that someone needs to enter Li Jue's ambush circle to lure the enemy, so this important task falls on Gao Fei and Sun Jian. The two of them decided to use two thousand infantrymen as bait to trigger this
Fight, and then wait for Dong Jun to retreat, then bite Dong Jun and take the opportunity to seize Sishui Pass.
"Xian brother, I didn't expect that after more than a year apart, our brothers would fight side by side again. It's a pity that Meng De is missing. If he comes, it will really be the joy of fighting back the chaos in Liangzhou." Sun Jian and others.
Bored, he wiped his ancient ingot knife and said to Gao Fei.
Gao Fei smiled and said: "Brother Meng De is no longer what he used to be. He may not be able to fight alongside us. I heard that Brother Meng De has 50,000 soldiers and horses in Yanzhou. These 50,000 people are not a small number. If
If he wants to, he can annex the entire Yanzhou and establish himself as the shepherd of Yanzhou."
"The difference between the state pastor and the state governor is too big. If the state pastoral system is unified, it will be easier to mobilize the troops who come to join the alliance. If I become the pastor of a state, maybe I will bring the entire state together.
Bring all the soldiers and horses from the state here. The wise brother is in Youzhou, where we need to guard against the barbarians, so let’s take care of it. But here in Mengde... alas! Let’s not mention it. Once the Sishui Pass is captured and the remaining battles are left, we will
Let Meng De fight, he has more soldiers and food, and is more powerful than us."
At this moment, a strange whistle sounded in the distance. Gao Fei immediately became alert and said: "Brother Wentai, it's our turn to appear."
Sun Jian held the ancient sword across his chest and said immediately: "I have been waiting for a long time. I will use Li Jue's head to pay tribute to this sword soon!"
