Chapter 422 The Beautiful Xu Rong

Sun Jian, known as the Tiger of Jiangdong, has been victorious especially in recent years in Jiangdong, and the Central Plains princes will not pay too much attention to him. The key point is that he assisted Zhang Wen in the Xiliang campaign and had a bad relationship with Dong Zhuo. He once strongly recommended Zhang Wen. kill it.Later, due to the Jiangdong rebellion, he returned to Jiangdong, and then won consecutive battles, known as the Jiangdong Tiger.

Sun Jian advanced all the way, which made the besieged Dong Yue even more panicked. He hurriedly asked Xu Rong for advice, and Xu Rong personally led his troops to Yiqueguan to supervise the battle.

Sun Jian attacked fiercely for several days, but Yiqueguan was still firmly in Xu Rong's hands.

Later, Yuan Shu didn't distribute food and grass, and Sun Jian's army was shaken because of the lack of food and grass. Xu Rong speculated from Sun Jian's offensive strength that Sun Jian's army didn't have much food and grass, so he led the army to camp early the next morning.

Sun Jian was caught off guard by the defeat, and even the general Zu Rong fell into Xu Rong's hands. Sun Jian fled back to Luyang overnight without mentioning it.

Xu Rong's prestige has risen again since he defeated Sun Jian.

The princes of Yanzhou did not dare to act rashly, and strictly ordered Zhu Jun not to march again, and at the same time withdrew the troops supported by various ministries.

Zhu Jun knew how Sun Jian used his troops. He admitted that Xu Rong used his troops well, but it must be a fluke if he could defeat Sun Jian so badly, so he tried his best to persuade the princes of Yanzhou, but Yanzhou was unmoved.

Later, I heard that Cao Cao went to Yangzhou to recruit soldiers. Yangzhou Inspector Chen Wen and Danyang Prefect Zhou Xin had four thousand soldiers.

Zhu Jun sent Zhu Huan to contact Cao Cao. Before Zhu Huan got any news, he heard that Cao Cao's troops had a camp roar, and Cao Cao almost died in the chaos.

After Zhu Jun heard the news, he organized his troops to kill Luoyang alone.

When the counties in Xingyang heard of Zhu Jun's name, they gave food to the soldiers one after another, but they did not openly rebel against the Xiliang army.

Zhu Jun understood their situation. The princes of Yanzhou were worse than them. Liu Xuande retreated to Hanoi and lived in Gucheng and hid in Beimang. Yuan Shao's second batch of reinforcements just arrived at Chaoge. Ling is also loyal.

Of course, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhu Zhonglang had already sent them to prison.

Zhu Jun marched all the way west until Chenggao. He had more than [-] soldiers, so he sent troops to turn the gate.

Hearing the news, Xu Rong didn't care to go back to Luoyang, so he hurriedly sent his troops to the Revolving Gate Pass. When Xu Rong arrived at the Revolving Gate Pass, Zhu Jun had already captured the Revolving Gate Pass. Xu Rong repeatedly challenged him, but Zhu Jun didn't come out. , time spent in the revolving door.

Cao Cao heard that Zhu Jun was confronting Xu Rong at the Revolving Gate Pass, so he sent more than a thousand soldiers he gathered to the Revolving Gate to help.

Luyang, Yuan Shu's camp, although Yuan Shu was stationed in Luyang, the whole Nanyang was under the control of Yuan Shu. He himself served as the prefect of Nanyang, appointed Yang Hong as the long history, Yan Xiang as the master, and Li Feng, Yuan Huan and others in charge of the county. , Zhang Xun sits in Wancheng as the captain.I, Ji Ling, Qiao Miao, Liu Xun, Li Gang, Le Jiu and others were stationed in Luyang.

Sun Jian should be regarded as one of Yuan Shu's generals at this moment, so he went straight into Yuan Shu's camp, and Yuan Shu's generals could not stop him at all.

Yuan Shu looked at Sun Jian, who was covered in blood and in a panic, and the anger in his heart turned into guilt, and said, "Wentai, what are you?"

Sun Jian said angrily, "Duke Ming, the reason why I don't care about this is to fight against traitors for the country, and to avenge the family's personal revenge for the general. I have no deep-rooted hatred with Dong Zhuo, but the general listens to the words of the villain. To be suspicious of something!"

Yuan Shu felt ashamed and couldn't rest assured.

Sun Jian went on to say: "Now the great success is about to be completed, but the army rations are not available. This situation is exactly the same as Wu Qi shedding tears in the West River, and Le Yi's success is on the verge of failure. General, please observe clearly, think deeply, and make a decision early!"

Yuan Shu thought for a long time and said: "Wentai is a misunderstanding. I just took Nanyang, and the collection of food and grass is a little slow, but Wentai can rest assured that the food and grass have been collected. I will immediately allocate the food and grass for you. Wentai can take it with me when I go back this time. Food and grass go."

"Thank you so much, General. There is a general who supports a certain Ding to take Luoyang as a general."

Sun Jian said.

Yuan Shu was overjoyed: "Then just sit and wait for the bureau to make meritorious service!"

When Sun Jian left Yuan Shu's camp, Cheng Pu and Huang Gai stepped forward and said, "My lord, what did Yuan Gonglu say?"

Sun Jian sneered: "He prevaricates someone with food and grass."

Zhu Zhi, Sun Jian's counselor, stepped forward and said, "My lord, Yuan Shu is not reliable, so we might as well rely on ourselves."

Sun Jian said: "Jun Li, how can you rely on yourself?"

Zhu Zhidao: "My lord, this place is no better than Jiangdong. My lord needs soldiers and food. At this moment, my lord has no soldiers and no food. Whether I can win or not depends on Yuan Shu's gift. If I want to get rid of this predicament, I can only find a place to stay. Only the landlord can recruit troops and gather food."

Sun Jian, Cheng Pu, and Huang Gai all nodded. Cheng Pu looked around and said, "My lord, why don't you go back to the camp and ask you to explain it in detail."

Sun Jian nodded.

Sun Jian took out rations for 3000 people from Yuan Shu and went straight back to his camp, where he invited generals Zhu Zhi, Cheng Pu, and Huang Gai to discuss further.

"Runan is the birthplace of the Yuan family. Yuzhou is full of big clans. Where is it suitable for us to settle down?"

Sun Jian thought hard all the way but couldn't find a solution.

Zhu Zhidao: "My lord, there is actually one place that is just right for my lord, and others want it but dare not."

Sun Jian was overjoyed: "Where?"

"The Yangren area, this area is the place where the lord was defeated. Everyone was terrified by Xu Rong. Officials and gentry fled. Everyone was afraid that Xiliang iron cavalry would go south. Was he just thinking of a strong general to protect them? And this Isn't it suitable for the lord?"

Zhu Zhi pointed to Sun Jian and said sadly.

Sun Jian nodded, he had no other thoughts before, because the area around the Rushui River was the Yuan family's sphere of influence, and now Yuan Shu is unreliable, so it's no wonder that he stopped by the Yuan family's foundation.

"Okay, let's go to the Chaoyang people tomorrow."

Sun Jian once again stationed troops outside Yique Pass. This time, he recruited a large number of people. Lu Fan from Xiyang in Runan led hundreds of people from his family to join Sun Jian, and Sun Jian's momentum regained momentum.

Xu Rong, who was confronting Zhu Jun at the revolving door pass, heard the news and left the revolving door pass swaggeringly.

Zhu Jun who closed the door sneered: "It's a small trick to lure soldiers to show shame, Xu Rong is nothing more than that."

The reason why Zhu Jun deliberately belittled Xu Rong was to boost the morale of the people around him. Zhu Jun's garrison did not come out of the door, which did greatly reduce morale.

As Xu Rong continued to retreat, Zhu Jun's generals all suggested to continue to march towards Luoyang, but Zhu Jun hesitated. Could it be that Xu Rong is about to retreat to Luoyang, or the situation around Luoyang has changed a lot.

At this moment, Zhu Jun is not as well-informed as he was during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, so he can only rely on speculation, because the princes of Yanzhou do not want him to be too forward.

It wasn't until Xu Rong withdrew from Yanshi that Zhu Jun was sure that Xu Rong wanted to deal with Sun Jian first. Zhu Jun was enraged by Xu Rong's contempt, so he pulled out his army and marched towards Luoyang.

There was no human habitation along the way, and the food and grass in Zhu Jun's army was consumed rapidly. When Zhu Jun accelerated his march to Gong County, Xu Rong only left an empty city for Zhu Jun.

Zhu Jun had no choice but to speed up his march while allowing the rear to deliver food and grass. Yanshi was the same, and it seemed that there would not be many soldiers and civilians in Luoyang. For food and grass, Zhu Jun even divided his troops to attack Goushi County.

However, the soldiers and horses who attacked the Gou family never came back, and Zhu Jun realized that Xu Rong was not fortifying the wall to clear the country, but also luring the enemy deep. It was impossible for Zhu Jun to escape.

Zhu Jun had no choice but to dismiss the soldiers and horses, leaving only the elite to retreat slowly. As a result, Xu Rong led the Xiliang iron cavalry to defeat him, and Zhu Jun fled to Yangcheng in a hurry.

Xu Rong defeated the famous general Zhu Jun, and his reputation resounded throughout the country. Dong Yue of Luoyang also put his heart in his stomach again.

It seems that the [-] meeting point is just a bubble, but there will still be three changes today, the third change will be at six o'clock, and there will still be one change at zero o'clock.In order to meet the point, the night is also fighting, is there any?
