Lu Dynasty

Chapter 206 Defeat
I stood at the gate and observed Sun Jian's troops carefully, and found that his offensive has been a little weak in the past two days.Sun Jian has always been known for his bravery and bravery.Don't dare to say anything else, that is a proper evaluation of him.I whispered to Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong nodded, and went out with my personal guards to capture some prisoners.I watched these captives carefully and ordered people to bring a lot of food.I saw these captives swallowing their saliva in unison.I asked these prisoners to eat with appetite, and they told me gratefully with tears that they hadn't eaten for two days, and two days ago, they only drank a few sips of clear soup!

After hearing what these captives said, I knew that Yuan Shu had finally cut off Sun Jian's rations!Since Sun Jian's army had no food for at least two days, now is the best time to break Sun Jian.I ordered Hua Xiong and Hu Zhen to be called to the main tent of the Chinese army and said: "Hua Xiong! Wencai! I already have a plan to defeat Sun Jian. I wonder if the two generals are willing to obey my orders?"

"General Lu is too worried. Since he can defeat Sun Jian, it is a great achievement. I, Hu Zhen, am the only one who obeys the general's order." Hu Zhen said.

Hua Xiong curled his lips and said, "As long as I'm not asked to continue guarding the gate, other matters are easy to discuss!"

I laughed and said, "That's the case, Hu Zhen listens to the order! After nightfall, you take your subordinates to lurk near Sun Jian's camp, prepare more hay and fire starters, and wait for the opportunity to set fire when you hear the sound of killing. After setting the fire and Hua Hua Xiong Hui joins forces to charge and kill in Sun Jian's camp! Remember your task is to set fire! Do not engage in battle when you see the enemy general!" After Hu Zhen received the order, he went to prepare hay and fire starters.

"Hua Xiong! Take your troops and watch me light a fire on the city tower after nightfall. If you see three torches, go straight to Sun Jian's camp! No matter who is in the way, kill them all!" I ordered.

Hua Xiong was shocked and said: "Lu Baxian, didn't you tell me to die? You said last time that Sun Jian's generals are good at martial arts, if I go out to fight, I will be robbed. Now you actually order me to go straight to Sun Jian's camp, how can Sun Jian do it?" Unprepared? Even if he is unprepared, if I go in, can I still come out?"

I smiled and said, "Don't worry, Hua Xiong. If my predictions are correct, Sun Jian has already been short of food for several days. You go this time and use [-] elite troops to deal with Sun Jian's tired and hungry crowd. This is not enough." If you win, you don't want to call yourself the number one general under the prime minister's command!"

"How did Baxian know that Sun Jian was short of food?" Hua Xiong said, "We didn't receive such information?"

I looked at Hua Xiong very helplessly, if Zhao Yun and the others would never talk so much nonsense, so I said viciously: "Hua Xiong! Do you listen to the order? If not, I will let Han Sheng do the killing mission. Are you here?" It’s just for outside support! You can be regarded as a fierce general under the prime minister’s command, do you not understand what it means to be overwhelmed by military orders, or are you greedy for life and afraid of death?”

Hua Xiong said angrily: "Who says I'm greedy for life and afraid of death? So I'll accept this task! At worst, I'll just die!"

"When chasing and killing Sun Jian, don't act like a bull. Just remember Sun Jian's red headband. If you let Sun Jian go, be careful and I will tell the prime minister!" I said seriously.

Hua Xiong said impatiently, "Got it!"

I looked at Hua Xiong and shook his head and continued to order: "Han Sheng, you bring 5000 people behind to respond. After the fire starts, you will rush into Sun Jian's camp and try to slaughter Sun Jian's vital forces!" After I finished speaking, I called them. Go down and get ready.

Hua Xiong asked, "Why is there no guard, sir?"

"Hua Xiong don't have to worry, I'll guard the gate with 5000 people here, and I'll prepare a celebration banquet for you, who can hurt me?" I said with a smile: "Go and prepare! I want to use Sun Jian's head to reward the Prime Minister What!" Hua Xiong looked at me, nodded and left.

Looking at Hua Xiong's back, I thought to myself: Originally, I don't care about Hua Xiong's life or death, but since you cared about me, I will save your life!Hua Xiong didn't know it, but because of his subconscious words of concern for me, his life was saved.

After nightfall, Hua Xiong, Hu Zhen, and Huang Zhong sneaked out of Sishui Pass and arrived near Sun Jian's camp.Just when Hua Xiong was waiting impatiently, the soldiers under his command suddenly told him to close and light three torches!Hua Xiong looked up, sure enough, he was overjoyed and ordered the whole army to attack!Fifteen thousand cavalry charged straight at Sun Jian's camp, and Hu Zhen also took the opportunity to set fire to it, lighting up half of the night sky.

I watched the fire in Sun Jian's camp, smiled and asked someone to make a pot of tea for me, and asked the marching master to prepare the merit book and celebration banquet, and then sat behind closed doors to watch the fire.Not to mention, the fire was really spectacular. From a distance, there was only a sea of ​​flames and thick smoke, but it was not like the black smoke of modern fires.I looked at such a magnificent sea of ​​fire, and thought about how magnificent the Chibi Fire was.I don't know if the Chibi fire will burn after I come, of course, even if it does, it can't burn me!

Hua Xiong joined Hu Zhen and Huang Zhong, and a total of [-] soldiers and horses from the three men trampled on Sun Jian's camp.Huang Zhong met Cheng Pu and Huang Gai in Sun Jian's camp, and almost finished them with one move.If I hadn't told Huang Zhong that Sun Jian could be killed but his generals should try not to kill them, I guess Sun Jian would have become a polished commander.

Sun Jian looked at the camp full of fire and wanted to cry, but Huang Gai and Cheng Pu tried to persuade Sun Jian to leave.In the light of the fire, Hua Xiong saw Sun Jian's red cape, and shouted, "Where is Sun Jian running! Leave the head and give me a favor!" As he spoke, he charged at Sun Jian.Cheng Pu and Huang Gai quickly blocked Hua Xiong, looking for opportunities for Sun Jian to escape.

Sun Jian felt that he really had no hope of turning the tide, so he turned around and ran away, making Hua Xiong very depressed.Then I saw Sun Jian running in front and Hua Xiong chasing behind.Huang Zhong was not interested in participating in this kind of chasing battle. The order he and Hu Zhen received was to kill and wound Sun Jian's troops as much as possible.So, Huang Zhong and Hu Zhen started a massacre there, and then people shouted to surrender and not to kill!

The Jiangdong disciples still have a lot of backbone. Although Sun Jian was defeated, there were not many people who surrendered.Sun Jian's soldiers, in addition to running away, were killed in battle.The battle lasted until early in the morning, when Huang Zhong and Hu Zhen returned with the prisoners and captured.I greeted them with a smile, and Hu Zhen said: "The general is lucky, that Sun Jian has been short of food for several days! After we entered the camp, we hardly encountered strong resistance!" Huang Zhong also nodded.

I looked at Hu Zhen and Huang Zhong and said, "Where is Hua Xiong!"

"Go after Sun Jian!" Huang Zhong said.

I shook my head and said, "It is estimated that he captured Zu Mao!"

Hu Zhen asked in surprise: "Why is it Zu Mao? Didn't Hua Xiong arrest Sun Jian?"

"Hua Xiong doesn't know Sun Jian, so he will stare at the red scarf on Sun Jian's head. If Sun Jian is chased urgently, there will be generals who will replace him. Sun Jian's subordinates are like brothers, only Zu Mao is the most incompetent, so The one who will replace Sun Jian must be him!" Hua Xiong came back before I finished speaking.I smiled and said, "Let's go and see!"
