Chapter 131 Hua Xiong seeks Sun Jian, Zhao Yun steals water
"What a way to kill someone with a borrowed knife."
Yuan Shao agreed with Xu You's words. Sun Jian had a high prestige in Changsha. If he wanted to realize the blueprint given to him by Xu You, Sun Jian would definitely be a roadblock.
"My lord, Sun Jian is the vanguard of the princes and he does not bring much food and grass. If we only agree verbally but actually give him less or no food and grass, his army will be in chaos within three days. When the time comes, I don't believe that the general guarding Sishui Pass will not
I will take advantage of the situation and attack."
"This is a great plan, but there is one disadvantage."
Xu You wanted to use the sword of the Xiliang army to weaken Sun Jian, which was really good, but there was a flaw in it.
"My lord, I'm afraid that Sun Jian's revelation will damage your reputation."
What kind of person is Xu You? He can see what Yuan Shao is worried about at a glance.
"Um."
Yuan Shao nodded.
"What's the problem? I can just borrow the head of the army grain officer when the time comes."
Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment when he heard Xu You's words, and then nodded.
At that time, as long as the military grain officer escorting the grain and fodder is beheaded, he will be accused of embezzling grain and fodder, and his head will be sent to Sun Jian, and everything will be fine.
"In this case, I will leave this matter to you, Ziyuan, and you must do it properly."
"promise."
That night, Zhao Yun led four thousand cavalry and ten thousand infantry and marched towards Sishui Pass without anyone noticing.
Sun Jian's troops had been short of food for three days. In three days, not a single grain of food and grass promised by Yuan Shao had been delivered. The soldiers could not eat enough, and their war weariness continued to grow.
"Commander, please report carefully. Sun Jian has been without food for three days, and the morale of the army is declining."
A scout ran to Hua Xiong's governor's house and reported to him what was going on at Sun Jian's place.
"Hahahaha, as expected, these eighteen princes are just a mob. Yuan Shao is afraid that Sun Jian will take the lead, so he does not distribute food and grass."
After hearing what the scout said, Hua Xiong looked like he had known it for a long time.
After Li Su heard Xi Zuo's information, he rolled his eyes and clasped his fists towards Hua Xiong.
"Captain, Sun Jian is in chaos, we can only defeat the enemy tonight."
"Li Su, if you have anything to say, please tell me."
Hearing Li Su's words, Hua Xiong became more energetic. If he could defeat Sun Jian again, his position with Dong Zhuo would become even more important.
"Captain, Sun Jian's army is in chaos. Tonight, I will lead a group of soldiers and horses to go down the pass from the pass and attack Sun Jian's rear stronghold. The general will lead a large group of soldiers and horses to attack the front stronghold. Sun Jian's army cannot look at each other. Capturing him is like searching for something."
Hua Xiong agreed with Li Su's words.
"As you say, the generals will prepare and follow me to capture Sun Jian tonight."
"promise."
In the evening, Hua Xiong ordered the entire army to have extra meals, and 40,000 troops came out in full force, taking advantage of the darkness of the night to smear Xiaguan.
After Xiaguan, the troops were divided into two groups. Hua Xiong led 30,000 horses and went straight to Sun Jian's front stronghold, while Li Su led 10,000 horses and went around to Sun Jian's back stronghold.
The Xiliang army marched quietly and slowly, and it was already midnight when they arrived at Sun Jian's military camp.
"Set fire, kill."
Hua Xiong gave an order, and countless rockets and torches flew into Sun Jian's stronghold, which instantly became a sea of fire.
When Sun Jian heard the cry of killing, he quickly put on his armor, but when he went out, he met Hua Xiong.
"kill."
Hua Xiong and Sun Jian started fighting without saying a word. The ancient ingot sword faced off against the broad-edged broadsword. The collision caused fire to fly everywhere, which was particularly eye-catching at night.
"kill."
While Hua Xiong and Sun Jian were fighting, Li Ru also arrived with his troops and attacked Sun Jian directly from the rear village.
Sun Jian's army had been short of food for three days and had lost its fighting strength. Now it was attacked from both sides and the camp immediately collapsed.
"Lord, I will cover you and retreat quickly."
Zu Mao rode his horse to Sun Jian's side.
"Walk."
Sun Ce and Zu Mao rode out to break out, but Hua Xiong was chasing after them.
"My lord, your helmet is too conspicuous. Change it with me and I will lure Hua Xiong away."
After Zu Mao finished speaking, he took off his helmet and handed it to Sun Ce.
"Da Rong, be careful."
After Sun Ce finished speaking, he galloped on his horse, while Zu Mao took Sun Ce's helmet and ran in the other direction.
After running for a while, Zu Mao hung Sun Ce's helmet on a piece of wood and hid himself in the dark.
Hua Xiong galloped on his horse and cut the wood with Sun Ce's helmet into two pieces with one knife.
"kill."
Taking advantage of Hua Xiong's unpreparedness, Zu Mao rushed out and slashed at Hua Xiong's horse with his swords.
"court death."
When Hua Xiong saw Zu Mao rushing towards him, a trace of murderous intent burst out in his eyes. He raised the broad-bladed knife in his hand and cut Zu Mao in half.
Just when they were fighting extremely fiercely, Zhao Yun led four thousand cavalry wearing the military uniforms of the Xiliang Army and quickly arrived at the Sishui Pass. Ten thousand infantry were waiting not far away and could enter the pass at any time.
"who?"
When the guard at the top of the city saw Zhao Yun coming, he couldn't help but frown.
"The Commander-in-Chief Hua Xiong has defeated Sun Jian. He has ordered us to go ahead and not open the city gates to welcome the Commander-in-Chief's return."
Zhao Yun's words were all told by Jushou before leaving, so he would not make mistakes if he followed them.
"this."
Looking at Zhao Yun at the top of the city, the guard couldn't help but hesitate.
"Open the city gate quickly, otherwise I will have to read a copy of the book as soon as the governor arrives."
Seeing that the guard still didn't open the door, Zhao Yun could only increase the pressure.
"Open the city gate."
When he heard that Zhao Yun wanted to read a book in front of Hua Xiong, the guard was confused, but he did not dare not to open it.
"Crunch."
The huge suspension bridge slowly lowered, and the huge city gate also slowly opened.
"Enter the city."
Seeing the city gate open, Zhao Yun looked happy and led four thousand cavalry slowly into Sishui Pass.
"General, you have worked hard, but I hope you can say a few kind words in front of the governor."
When the guard general saw Zhao Yun entering the city, he quickly led his subordinates to come in front of Zhao Yun.
They were all local defenders of the former Bishui Pass, not Dong Zhuo's Xiliang elites. If they wanted to be promoted, they could only rely on connections and connections.
"Easy to say, easy to say, easy to kill."
Zhao Yun looked at the flattering general in front of him, swung his gun and picked him on the gun.
As soon as the word "kill" was shouted, the cavalry behind Zhao Yun drew their swords and slashed all the soldiers at Sishui Pass around them. Then the cavalry dismounted and rushed up to the tower.
The 10,000 infantrymen outside the pass also received the order, rushed into Sishui Pass at full speed, and cooperated with the cavalry to clear out the defenders on the city wall.
In just two quarters of an hour, all the towers in Sishui Pass had changed hands.
Sishui Pass was easily held by Zhao Yun in his hand.
"Close the city gate."
The huge city gate closed, and the heavy suspension bridge slowly rose to its highest point.
"Captain, you are truly a victorious general."
Li Su sat on the horse and complimented Hua Xiong.
"Hahahaha, Li Su, needless to say, if I can defeat Sun Jian in one fell swoop this time, I will definitely report it to the Prime Minister and ask for credit for you."
Hua Xiong liked Li Su's tricks very much and was very happy to be photographed by Li Su.
"Thank you, Captain."
Li Su was also overjoyed. After all, Hua Xiong was Dong Zhuo's trusted general. With his support, he could have a better development in the Xiliang army.
"Hahahaha, don't worry about small things."
The victorious army returned to Sishui Pass in great excitement.
"Huh? Who is guarding the city? Governor Hua has returned victoriously, so why don't you open the city gate quickly?"
