Li Jue returned to the house angrily. He was so angry that he suddenly overturned all the bamboo slips on the desk. A pile of bamboo slips were scattered on the ground. Among these bamboo slips were "Wei Liaozi" and "Sun Wu".
"The Art of War", "Tai Gong's Art of War" and other military books that are difficult for ordinary people to see, but Li Jue overturned all the military books to the ground, which shows how angry Li Jue was.
"Asshole!"
"idiot!"
…
Li Jue paced back and forth in the room, shouting and cursing loudly.
Standing on the city wall and seeing the fire all over the sky in the southeast direction of Hulao Pass, Li Jue was completely angry. Li Jue had exhausted all his plans, but he didn't expect that his granary was burned down. Without the support of grain and grass, Li Jue
Jue can last for ten days at most. After ten days, the remaining food in Hulao Pass will be exhausted, and the food will have to be escorted from Luoyang.
Although Luoyang can transport grain to Hulao Pass, time is no longer within Li Jue's control.
It took more than ten days to deliver the news of the food shortage from Hulao Pass back to Luoyang, and then Luoyang ordered all the grain and grass to be sent to Hulao Pass. The Hulao Pass had long since collapsed due to lack of food and grass, and the situation was already in danger.
When Li Jue left Luoyang, he vowed in front of Dong Zhuo that he would defeat the allied forces of the princes. However, the situation now turned out to be one-sided and the allied forces of the princes had the upper hand.
"Huhuhu..."
The more Li Jue thought about it, the angrier he became, and there was no way he could calm down his impetuous mood.
"Here comes someone!" Li Jue suddenly shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldier on guard outside the house opened the door and walked in, saying, "General, what are your orders?"
Li Jue loudly ordered: "Have Guo Si, Zhao Cen, and Hu Zhen come to the meeting hall immediately!"
The soldier was startled, and Nuonuo said: "General, General Guo Si, I'm afraid...?"
The soldiers were still a little afraid of Li Jue summoning Guo Si, Zhao Cen, and Hu Zhen in such a hurry. Zhao Cen and Hu Zhen had low official positions, and their status was humble. Li Jue gave the order and they had to stay in the meeting hall obediently.
But Guo Si is different. Guo Si is the commander-in-chief of Hulao Pass and is also a good friend of Li Jue. Although Guo Si usually smiles, he is domineering and ruthless when he gets angry. Many soldiers do not dare to offend Guo Si.
It's already late at night and Guo Si is sleeping soundly. If I disturb Guo Si now, wouldn't I be looking for a fight?
When Li Jue saw that the soldier actually asked him why, the anger in his heart burst out.
In normal times, Li Jue would have explained clearly, but when he thought about the destruction of the granary, Li Jue felt that these soldiers were just eating and drinking, without any use.
Li Jue picked up the bamboo slips from the ground and hit the soldier directly on the head.
When the soldiers saw that Li Jue was angry, they were afraid and did not dare to dodge, so they could only take the blow forcefully.
The bamboo slip hit the soldier's head, making a muffled sound, and immediately scarlet blood beads seeped out from the soldier's forehead. Seeing that the soldier refused to dodge, Li Jue cursed in his heart for being stupid, but shouted loudly: "
What are you doing standing here? Why don't you go and pass the news quickly? If Guo Si, Hu Zhen, and Zhao Cen haven't arrived at the meeting hall in a quarter of an hour, take off your head yourself and don't come back to report it."
"promise!"
When the soldiers heard Li Jue's words, they hurriedly turned around and left as if they had heard of the amnesty.
Li Jue snorted, widened his eyes, and watched the soldiers leave angrily, filled with anger.
After a long time, Li Jue put on his armor and boots, arranged his hair in a bun, and walked towards the meeting hall.
The grain and grass were destroyed, Hulao Pass was about to fall into trouble, and Li Jue himself was in a dilemma. Now Li Jue finally understood why the Allied forces were silent for the past two days and did not take the initiative to attack the city. They crossed Chencang secretly and were actually hit by the Allied forces.
At first, Li Jue thought that the Allied forces were retreating after seeing that they could not attack the city. Now he suddenly discovered that he was already part of their plan. This feeling made Li Jue a little frustrated...
When Li Jue rushed to the meeting hall, Zhao Cen and Hu Zhen were sitting upright in the meeting hall.
Both of them were small people. When they heard Li Jue summoning them, they didn't dare to show any signs of neglect. They got dressed and came in a few minutes.
Only Guo Si took his time, and when the time was almost quarter of an hour, Shi Shiran rushed to the meeting hall.
At this time, Guo Si's expression was serious, because Guo Si saw the scar on the forehead of the soldier who sent the message, and knew that Li Jue must have been extremely angry, otherwise he would not have angered the soldiers. Guo Si's understanding of Li Jue can be said to be very good.
They knew each other very well. Both of them were old men in the Xiliang Army. Guo Si knew very well what kind of character Li Jue was.
If he had not encountered a difficult situation, Li Jue would never have been so reckless.
"Lao Li, what happened?"
After Guo Si entered the hall, he looked up at Li Jue and asked.
It was okay that Guo Si didn't ask. When Li Jue heard Guo Si's question, he immediately became furious. With blazing anger in his eyes, he cursed: "Guo Aduo, you ask me what happened? I want to ask you what on earth you are doing."
I asked you to guard the city gate so that the allies of the princes could not enter Hulao Pass. How did you guard it? Damn it, now the granary has been burned and all the food has been burned. You said this was not done by the allies of the princes?
Who could it be?"
"Ah? The food and grass were burned?"
Guo Bang looked shocked, his face full of astonishment.
Zhao Cen and Hu Zhen also opened their mouths, stunned by Li Jue's news.
Food and grass, whether for the allies of the princes or the soldiers of Xiliang, were the basis of the battle between the two armies. Without enough food and grass, even if Li Jue had all his ideas, he would not be able to recover.
Guo Si was not slow to respond and asked: "Old Li, how did you know that the food and grass were destroyed?"
Li Jue groaned angrily and said, "How did you get the news? Don't you know that if you stand on the city wall and take a look, half of the sky in the southeast of Hulao Pass is red, and the place where the fire is blazing is the granary camp. Apart from the granary being burned, what do you think?
What else can cause such a big stir?"
Guo Bang curled his lips and said: "Okay, even if the granary is on fire. But how is it possible for the allies of the princes to enter Hulao Pass? I guard at the gate of the city every day, and there will be absolutely no allies of the princes to sneak into Hulao Pass. Besides,
, the terrain of the granary is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and there are 500 Xiliang soldiers guarding the granary. It is absolutely impossible to be captured by the allied forces of the princes. The destruction of grain and grass you mentioned has not been confirmed yet. Maybe it was
Was it caused by something else burning?"
Li Jue raised the corners of his mouth and asked with a sneer: "Then tell me, it's raining heavily today, what will catch fire?"
Guo Si was startled when he heard this. Li Jue was telling the truth.
It has been pouring rain from day to night, and everything that can burn has been wetted, making it impossible to burn easily. Moreover, it is still raining lightly in the sky, so it is impossible for other things to catch fire.
However, Guo Si guards the city every day and never finds anyone suspicious! Thinking of this, Guo Si said: "Old Li, there are only a few hundred people who have entered Hulao Pass in the past few days. These people have been strictly investigated."
I believe that the people who entered Hulao Pass could not have been caused by the allied forces of the princes. Think about it, could it be someone else who attacked the granary and burned the grain and grass?"
When Li Jue heard this, he immediately fell into deep thought.
Guo Bang insisted that it could not be the work of the princes and allies, and Li Jue's heart began to waver.
After all, during the day, Li Jue was also on the tower watching the people going in and out of Hulao Pass. Is there really no suspicious person?
Could it be someone else?
Li Jue was confused and immediately ordered: "Guo Si, you, Zhao Cen and Hu Zhen are stationed at Hulao Pass and do not fight with the princes' allies. I will lead the Flying Bear Army to the granary immediately to find out what happened in the granary.
Things. I will return to Hulao Pass as soon as possible. During this period, you must guard the pass and not slack off at all."
"promise!"
Guo Si shouted back.
Li Jue nodded, stood up immediately, and left the meeting hall to summon the Flying Bear Army.
Within a quarter of an hour, the Flying Bear Army at Hulao Pass was assembled. Li Jue was riding on a war horse, followed by more than 600 Flying Bear Army. Li Jue pulled out the sword from his waist with a clang and shouted: "Let's go!
"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jue galloped forward, leading an army of more than 600 flying bears towards the granary.
Two miles away from Hulao Pass, Wang Can, Zhao Yun, and their soldiers were hiding in the dense forest next to the official road. Only the sound of horse hooves was heard, and Li Jue led the flying bear army and quickly disappeared on the official road.
"Lord, Li Jue has indeed fallen into the trap." Zhao Yun said in a low voice when he saw Li Jue and his entourage galloping away.
Wang Can shook his head and said: "Zilong, it's not that Li Jue fell into the trap, but he has to find out what happened in the granary and determine the situation of the granary. Li Jue is good at forbearing and is quite powerful. Unfortunately, he belongs to the Xiliang Army tonight.
On the day of death, go and immediately go to Hulao Pass. While Li Jue is leaving, open the city gate and capture Hulao Pass."
A group of people quickly disappeared into the night.
After approaching Hulao Pass, Wang Can ordered: "Zilong, fire the noise arrow!" After hearing this, Zhao Yun nodded, took out the noise arrow from his waist, and opened the noise arrow.
"call out!"
A sharp and piercing sound pierced the night sky, and a thunderous explosion burst into the air.
