Before Xiao Jiang returned to the camp, soldiers had already reported back. They saw the soldiers rushing into the tent with joy and shouting:
"Reporting to the alliance leader, General Xiao killed Hua Xiong with one move and returned with a beheading level."
Yuan Shao's eyes changed slightly and then he shouted happily:
"This General Xiao is indeed as powerful as Tao Gongzu said. It would be wrong for him to lead only one army. However, since Hua Xiong is dead, we must immediately mobilize our troops and generals to capture Sishui Pass."
A short and thin man who had been watching with cold eyes also smiled and said:
"Brother Benchu said it right. Once we capture Sishui Pass and reward General Xiao for his merits, we will immediately mobilize our troops to capture Sishui Pass. Once Hulao Pass is captured, Luoyang will no longer be in danger. By that time
It’s a big deal to kill Dong’s thieves and clear the emperor’s side.”
Yuan Shao nodded and said:
"What Meng De said is absolutely true. You all must mobilize your troops to attack immediately."
The princes immediately prepared, and Xiao Jiang happened to come back with Hua Xiong's head to hand over the head. He handed the head and the big gun to the soldiers on the side, cupping his fists and saying:
"Reporting to the alliance leader, Hua Xiong's head has been captured."
Yuan Shao laughed and said:
"General Xiao is indeed brave and unparalleled. When Sishui Pass is captured, the general will be rewarded for his merits. Now our army is marching to attack Sishui Pass. Although the general is brave, there are few troops to support him. We can chase the remaining soldiers after the pass is broken.
"
Xiao Jiang knew what everyone was thinking. He had already achieved the first victory. If he attacked Sishui Pass and achieved greater success, it would be inconvenient to reward him.
Xiao Jiang nodded and said:
"What the alliance leader said is absolutely true. My soldiers are not familiar with the surrounding situation. It is okay to go and clean up the mess. Then I will retire first, reorganize the troops and horses, and then set off."
After Xiao Jiang exited the tent, he walked a few steps and saw Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei discussing something. They saw the two of them saying polite words to Xiao Jiang. When Xiao Jiang left, Gongsun Zan whispered:
"It's true that heroes emerge from troubled times. Xiao Jiang's demeanor is as good as that of a general, and his martial arts skills are so superb. Tao Gongzu has a good eye."
Liu Bei also showed a hint of envy, but he also understood the current situation. Although he had ambitions in his heart, he did not have the slightest idea of Xiao Jiang's status and his status.
Just like in the novel, as soon as the leader died, Sishui Pass became chaotic and was quickly broken and occupied by the coalition forces. The army covered the area for dozens of miles and only stopped pursuing it when they reached the vicinity of Hulao Pass.
After Xiao Jiang killed Hua Xiong, he would never lead his 2,000 infantry troops around randomly. Others were beheading people to seize food and grass. Xiao Jiang led his troops to intercept and ambush some lightly-armed soldiers carrying packages.
The army was defeated at Shuiguan.
By the time the battlefield was cleared, the military merit reported by Xiao Jiang's team was only 1,500 enemy kills and 630 war horses captured, which was much lower than the thousands or tens of thousands of military merit reported by other armies.
However, a discerning person will not underestimate the contribution of Xiao Jiang's team. You must know that his team did not attack Sishui Pass. After the pass was broken, his army was the first to pursue it, and those killed were all officers of Dong Zhuo's army.
, although the number of people killed was small, Hua Xiong's men were not Xiliang cavalry troops, so being able to capture more than 600 horses would be considered a great achievement.
According to the arrangements of the coalition forces, the captured grain and grass must be handed over to the public for dispatch, but the capture of captured war horses and treasures is left to each army to arrange for itself.
Xiao Jiang followed the high-altitude unmanned reconnaissance drones all the way to target Dong Jun officers one by one and intercept and kill them, with the purpose of getting the most benefits for his troops.
After the battle, Xiao Jiang's team captured less than 500 prisoners and not much food and grass, because most of the food and grass in Sishui Pass had been burned when they withdrew, and there was not much left.
However, there are gains and losses in war. Even if Xiao Jiang had high-altitude surveillance and rationally deployed troops to intercept, he could not be perfect in the era of cold weapons. Therefore, after the pursuit, his troops still had three people dead and more than a dozen injured.
According to the arrangement of the Chinese army, Xiao Jiang's team camped on the top of a hill upstream of a creek. Xiao Jiang looked at the Chinese army tent in the distance and sat in front of the camp gate. A soldier behind him shouted in a low voice:
"General, after this battle, you will be famous all over the world. I will definitely be happy for you at home."
Xiao Jiang smiled and said without looking back:
"Meng Ke, you are also an elite soldier selected by my father. Have you ever noticed that ten of your own soldiers may not be able to defeat even one Danyang soldier? Do you know why?"
Meng Ke and others are Xiao family soldiers. They are well-trained and well-equipped. They are considered elites in the army. However, Xiao Jian himself does not have the ability to lead troops and train. Even if they train hard, they will not achieve much. But their only advantage is that they
loyalty.
Meng Ke smiled bitterly. He also knew what they lacked, but Xiao Jiang still used them because they were the closest warriors to the Xiao family.
This group of personal guards are all around thirty years old. The opportunity to practice high-end martial arts has long been missed, and their qualifications are not very good. Xiao Jiang has no idea of training his own dead soldiers now, otherwise he will definitely find a group of orphans.
Build a special team.
You must know that he found all the blood bodhisattva when he was in Lingyun Cave. Taking two of them can cleanse the muscles and cut the marrow and increase your cultivation level by thirty years. He will have no problem at all in building a small army of dozens of people.
.
Meng Ke said:
"General, tell me how the coalition forces will take Hulao Pass next. I heard that the person guarding this place is Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo's adopted son. Rumor has it that Lu Bu has unparalleled martial arts skills. He has an unparalleled painted halberd, and his mount is Red Rabbit Chasing the Wind Horse. That's a ruthless man.
Role."
Xiao Jiang touched his chin and said:
"Then just wait and see, I'm not panicking."
Xiao Jiang was not panicked at all, and even had some small expectations in his heart. Against Lu Bu, it was impossible for him to kill the opponent with one shot. If he could really do it, he could only say that Lu Bu was too scumbag. He could kill Hua Xiong. That was the reaction of the opponent.
Even though he was just a little slow, coupled with his contempt for himself, Xiao Jiang's marksmanship was even more swift and domineering.
There is no difference between killing an enemy with one move and ten moves, but against a stronger opponent, speed, skill and strength alone cannot kill the opponent instantly when their cultivation level is not much different.
Xiao Jiang has been in contact with people who practice military commander skills in this world during this time. He already knows why they are so powerful. The warriors in this world do not practice faster than Fengyun World. The reason why they are powerful is because of their special military commander skills.
The practice of martial arts skills is mainly based on Qi and blood, which uses Qi to draw blood to forcibly expand the meridians. As long as the skills are high and the qualifications are good, you can almost reach your peak state after practicing hard for ten or twenty years. Once your blood Qi weakens with age, your combat power will decline.
And your lifespan will not be delayed as your cultivation level increases.
In the unparalleled world, unparalleled martial arts are explosive skills that are not used under normal circumstances because they consume a lot of energy. Even top generals try to use them as little as possible, just like Hua Xiong and Pan Feng fighting for hundreds of moves.
None of them used their unparalleled skills, just to avoid spending too much and being caught by others.
