Lu Dynasty

Chapter 205
Sun Jian gathered up the remnants of the defeated generals and sat in the camp, feeling very depressed.Huang Gai and Cheng Pu sat aside and looked at the gloomy Sun Jian without saying a word.Just now, the two of them reported the situation and results of the battle to Sun Jian. In addition to the losses, when Sun Jian heard that Hu Zhen ran away when he saw Cheng Pu and Huang Gai, he knew that it would be difficult for him to defeat Sishui Pass.But what Sun Jian didn't understand was that Hua Xiong, who was obviously extremely brave, was there at Sishui Pass, but I used Hu Zhen to lead the troops to charge into the battle, and told Hu Zhen to retreat when he saw the enemy general.

Sun Jian couldn't understand my thoughts, I didn't let Hua Xiong go, I just wanted Sun Jian to last a few more days.In this case, maybe Dong Zhuo, who has made full preparations, ordered us to withdraw to Hulao Pass.Whether it's Hua Xiong or Sun Jian, their life and death have nothing to do with me, but if Hua Xiong dies in front of me, wouldn't it be embarrassing for me to go back?Although I know the history, the current history has changed, and I don't know whether this history developed according to "Three Kingdoms" or "Three Kingdoms".

If it develops according to "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", then Guan Yu has already come under my command, and it is reasonable to say that Hua Xiong is very safe, but if it follows the development of "Three Kingdoms", Hua Xiong died at the hands of Sun Jian, and Hu Zhen died at the hands of In Cheng Pu's hand.I simply don't let Hua Xiong and Hu Zhen fight Sun Jianjun, in this case, it's hard for them to die!
Sun Jian is also a persevering person. Although he suffered repeated setbacks, he still relentlessly attacked the city.Half of the [-] Jiangdong disciples under his command are probably about to die, but they still can't even touch the city tower.Dong Zhuo knew the battle situation on our side, and he couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear.Standing beside Liu Xie, Dong Zhuo said to the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty: "I have Fengxian who is unstoppable, and Baxian is unparalleled in wisdom and tactics. The Kanto rats were suppressed by Baxian and Huaxiong at Sishuiguan and could not move forward. Maybe If they can't reach Hulao Pass, they will be defeated!" Seeing Dong Zhuo's happy expression, Wang Yun secretly hated him.Wang Yun thought to himself: I don't care how Lu Feng treats me, Wang Yun.But now that it involves Jiangshan Sheji, don't blame me, Wang Yun, for being vicious.

The old boy Wang Yun started to think of bad ideas to deal with me again. In fact, if I didn't want to see if Diao Chan was Axiu, I would have killed Wang Yun a long time ago. Wait now?Before Wang Yun became Situ, he was just a commoner. If I killed him, maybe those aristocratic families would have some resistance, but if I killed Wang Yun when Emperor Ling was around, I would just bribe the ten permanent servants. Dong Zhuo would not have any opinion if he killed him.

I stood on Sishui Pass, watching Sun Jian leading the army to attack the city, and said to Hua Xiong with a smile, "Hua Xiong, don't you think it's boring? You see, Sun Jian's martial arts skills are similar to yours, maybe even better than yours. If something happens to you, who will guard this Sishui pass? You won't let me, a powerless scholar, go to meet the enemy!"

Hua Xiong said unconvinced: "Baxian, even if Sun Jian is stronger than me, it is still very difficult to hurt me!"

"Are you a vegetarian under Sun Jian's generals?" I laughed and said, "Cheng Pu and Huang Gai may not be as good as you, Hua Xiong, but the combination of these two can definitely stop you. Zu Mao and Han Dang are not Fan either." Fan Zhiren is at least stronger than Wen Cai. If all five of them fight together, what chance do you think you have of winning? When the time comes, you are going to call one of us to save you, am I still Wen Cai?"

Hua Xiong blinked his eyes, thought for a while and said, "It seems to be a dead end! But if we just guard like this, wouldn't it greatly increase the prestige of the Kwantung Allied Forces?"

Hu Zhen said: "Mr. Dong wants us to defend the Sishui Pass and bring down the Kwantung Allied Forces. They have so many troops. They eat horses and chews. After a long time, the army food will definitely not be enough. We will not be able to attack again at that time. Just wait until Mr. Dong is in front of us. Come to support, no matter how brave this Sun Jian is, he is not as brave as Lu Bu, when Feng Xian deals with Sun Jian, you, Hua Xiong, will bully the other generals, and if we win, we will be rich and prosperous!"

"I originally wanted to come to Sishuiguan to make meritorious service, but it's a pity that I chose a tasteless task. If I knew it, I wouldn't have snatched it from Wen Hou! You brothers must be better than me!" Hua Xiong said: "And Wen Hou's martial arts He is also above me, it should be very easy to kill Sun Jian."

I laughed and said, "Fengxian is the prime minister's adopted son and the prime minister's bodyguard. How can he leave easily? Only when the prime minister personally conquers the Kwantung Allied Army can he go to war!" Lu Bu and I were very skeptical about whether I could handle it.As far as Lv Bu's bravery is concerned, Dong Zhuo has long been unstoppable, and with the notorious Dian Wei under my command, Dong Zhuo really can't imagine what he would do if I and Lv Bu were against him.Besides Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo really didn't know who else in the world could stop Dian Wei.So now Dong Zhuo can only hope that Lu Bu and I are that kind of loyal people, but are we that kind of people?
Sun Jian fought hard at Sishui Pass for another day, and when he returned to the big tent, the quartermaster came to report that the army rations were insufficient.Sun Jian disapproved very much in his heart, because it was Sun Jian's nominal lord Yuan Shu who was in charge of food.From Sun Jian's point of view, Yuan Shu and himself are a family, and Yuan Shu will withhold anyone's food, and it is impossible for Yuan Shu to detain his own food.So Sun Jian sent someone to urge the grain, but the people who came back told Sun Jian that the grain and grass in Yuan Shu's army were being dispatched and might be delivered later.When Sun Jian heard that he would arrive later, he was in no hurry.

But this night was five days late, Sun Jian's army had run out of food and grass, and the whole army was starving.Now Sun Jian was taken aback and urgently ordered Huang Gai to go to Yuan Shu's army to ask for food.Yuan Shu told Sun Jian that all the princes received food from him. Which other princes are not more important or noble than Sun Jian?So Yuan Shu gave the food to the other princes first, and he, Sun Jian, had to wait, because there was no food in his own army!
Sun Jian was dumbfounded when he received Huang Gai's report. The emperor was not short of hungry soldiers. How could Sun Jian take a group of soldiers who were starving to death to attack the impenetrable Sishui Pass?These Jiangdong children are all Sun Jian's.In this way, Sun Jian had nothing to do with Yuan Shu. If Sun Jian hadn't attacked Sishui Pass, he would still be able to break away from the coalition forces and go back to his hometown.If he wants to betray the coalition now, besides turning to Dong Zhuo, the only thing waiting for him is death.So Sun Jian sent people to Yuan Shu's army to urge food three times a day, and reported the situation to the leader Yuan Shao by the way.

Knowing that Sun Jian had complained to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu was even more angry, and his attitude towards Sun Jian became worse.Although Yuan Shao was at odds with Yuan Shu, he couldn't help Sun Jian, an outsider.Sun Jian waited another three days in starvation. He found that Yuan Shu was determined not to give him food, so he wanted to retreat.
