Invincible special police swept the three kingdoms

Chapter 190 The Battle of Sishui Pass (9)

Although Zhang Liao was full of disappointment, he still had to pretend to care about Liu Bei.He stepped forward and said, "Xuande, are you okay?" Although this sentence was a word of concern, Zhang Liao's tone was cold, without the slightest meaning of concern at all, it was more of a polite expression.

"It's okay, it's okay." Liu Bei shook his head helplessly and said.Although he said it was fine, his heart was indeed bleeding.After attacking Sishuiguan once, there were only a few people left behind him.Thinking of this, Liu Bei's nose suddenly turned sour, and tears rolled in his eyes.But Liu Bei held back, because it was nothing more than a defeat. If he could cry about it, wouldn't he look too cowardly.

"Since Mr. Xuande is fine, come back to the camp with me!" Zhang Liao was full of regret when he spoke.He regretted that Jia Xu's strategy was not completely successful. Although the Xiliang soldiers released by Zhao Lei this time severely damaged Liu Bei's troops, in the final analysis, they still did not kill Liu Bei. What's the use of wiping out Liu Bei's troops?
However, Zhang Liao's words made Liu Bei feel a little annoyed. Anyway, he lost all his troops just to capture Sishui Pass. He didn't expect Zhang Liao's tone to be so cold, but since Zhang Liao was able to bring the troops here In response to him, Liu Bei didn't have much to say, so he could only obediently follow Zhang Liao back.

Li Su returned to Sishui Pass in disgrace, and as soon as he entered the pass, Li Su was carried to the military doctor.

"What? Both Hua Xiong and Hu Zhen were beheaded by Sun Jian?" Guo Si cried out when he heard the return from the soldiers of the Xiliang Army.

He was not frightened by Hu Zhen, but by Hua Xiong.Once Hua Xiong died, there would be no more generals at Sishui Pass. He knew that he should have followed Li Su's advice and not let Hua Xiong leave the pass to pursue him. Now Hua Xiong was ambushed and split in half by Sun Jian. It may be that the city gate of Sishuiguan is tightly closed, and it cannot be kept out.

"I didn't expect there to be such a powerful general in the allied army. Could it be that Zhao Yun was the one who killed Hua Xiong?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind Guo Bang.

"General Guo, why didn't you listen to Li Su's words and told Hua Xiong not to leave the pass and pursue Zhao Lei's army. What did my lord say when he asked you and Hua Xiong to guard Sishui Pass? He told you to guard Sishui Pass, Has the general forgotten?"

After hearing this voice, Guo Bang felt very familiar. He turned his head and saw that it was Li Ru, as expected.

"Military division? Why did the military division come to Sishuiguan?" Guo Si said.

Li Ru was wearing a black robe and a black cape on his head. The black clothes made Li Ru's already gloomy face more obvious.

"If I don't come again, I'm afraid this Sishui pass will be lost." Li Rubai gave Guo Si a look, and said disdainfully.

Guo Bang's face was hot when Li Ru said it, but the key is that what Li Ru said was reasonable, and Guo Bang couldn't refute anything, so he could only look down at the ground and remain silent.

"General Guo, I don't want to pursue your crime of dereliction of duty now." Li Ru said.

Hearing Li Ru's original self, Guo Si suddenly raised his head.Li Ru is Dong Zhuo's most trusted person, as long as he doesn't pursue the matter of breaking Hua Xiong, then the matter with Dong Zhuo will be settled.

"I have a question to ask you now." Li Ru said.

"Military adviser, please tell me." Guo Si said to Li Ru respectfully.

"Hua Xiong went out to chase Zhao Lei with his army and horses. It is normal to be killed in an ambush. But the strange thing is, why did these Xiliang soldiers return safely after Hua Xiong was killed?" Li Ru asked Guo Si.

"This, this, I don't know either. I thought it was strange when I saw Hua Xiong's Xiliang soldiers came back but did not see Hua Xiong when they were defending the city. Later, I learned that Hua Xiong and Hu Zhen were killed and the soldiers But it was returned to Zhao with complete jade, and I, like the military adviser, felt a little baffled!" Guo Si said.

After listening to Guo Bang's answer, Li Ru felt that his question was a waste of time, Guo Bang turned around and threw the question back to Li Ru.Li Ru simply waved his hand at Guo Si impatiently, and said: "From now on, I will give the command of Sishui Pass to me to issue orders! Guo Si, you are now strictly guarding Sishui Pass, and no one is allowed to fight in any situation!" "

"No!" Guo Si clasped his fists and said.

Li Ru gave another blank look before walking down the tower, and now his mind is full of doubts, why did Zhao Lei let these Xiliang soldiers go?Besides Zhao Yun, who can split Hua Xiong in half?

"My lord, Liu Bei returned to the camp with Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and a dozen of his own soldiers all wounded." Zhang Liao said.

When Jia Xu heard it, she dropped the teacup in her hand to the ground.

Zhao Lei, Zhang Han and other counselors couldn't understand Jia Xu's gaffe.

"Liu Bei's life should not be terminated!" Jia Xu sighed.

"Mr. Jia don't need to be upset, after all, the future will be long!" Zhao Lei said, Zhao Lei was very calm, because he knew that Liu Bei was born with a hard life, so it is normal that Jia Xu's strategy did not succeed.Liu Bei also escaped from Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Sun Quan several times in history, running faster than a rabbit.Here I think that Liu Bei ran faster than Cao Cao in history, so we should change Cao Cao Cao Cao to Liu Bei.

After a pause, Zhao Lei said: "Besides, Mr. Jia's strategy wiped out the 4000 troops that Liu Bei managed to recruit, which is equivalent to bringing Liu Bei back to his original form. From this point of view, this strategy is quite good. "

"Xiao Lei, this kind of strategy can't be used a second time. In fact, it is definitely a wrong decision for you to order to let go of the surrounded Xiliang army today. Sun Jian doesn't know our purpose, and what you do today will make him feel uncomfortable. I will doubt your way of governing the army!" Zhang Han said at this time.

"I know, if this continues, then Sun Jian will scold me for reckless command." Zhao Lei smiled, and continued: "My fame in the first life cannot be ruined by that mouth of Sun Jian!"

After hearing Zhao Lei's words, everyone laughed.Zhang Han rolled his eyes at Zhao Lei and shook his head helplessly.

"Report!" A soldier outside the tent came to report.

"Report to my lord, someone from Sishuiguan has sent a letter of war!" The soldier walked in and said.

"War letter? Just after Sun Jian killed Hua Xiong, someone sent a letter of war at Sishuiguan?" Zhao Lei asked strangely.

"It's the lord." The soldier said while handing over the letter of challenge.

"Where's the messenger? Kill the messenger first." Zhao Lei laughed.

"Return to the lord, the messenger, the messenger said that his master told him that he could not enter the camp of the Allied army. If he entered, he would never return, so he just delivered the letter at the door and left." The soldier said.

"Who is so smart?" Zhao Lei took a look at the letter and saw that the bottom of the letter was signed by Li Rubai.

"It's the letter of war written by Li Ru. Ask me to close the Sishui Pass for a while tomorrow!" Zhao Lei said.

After Zhang Han read the letter, he passed it on to the next person, and then said: "I will meet you, and there is nothing to be afraid of him. Li Ru thinks meeting you shows that he thinks highly of us." Zhang Han joked.

"My lord, I have long heard that Li Ru, the number one counselor under Dong Zhuo's account, is resourceful and cunning. Tomorrow, my lord, you should be careful not to fall into Li Ru's tricks." Lu Su said after reading the letter.

"Speaking of being resourceful, everyone sitting in the big tent is resourceful. Speaking of being cunning, how can he, Li Ru, be compared with men and Mr. Jia! We have so many brains here, how can we be afraid of a Li Ru?" Zhao Lei laughed. said.

Everyone also laughed, only Jia Xu and Zhang Han were unconvinced, and Zhang Han said: "Nonsense, how can I be so scheming?"

Zhao Lei ignored Zhang Han's abuse, but said to a row of generals on the right: "Zhang Liao, send a few people to take care of Liu Bei. He is now Gongsun Zan's man. I want to show some face, even though I know that Gongsun Zan and his The relationship does not seem to be very good, but if you let the princes see the three brothers Liu Bei so scarred, I am afraid that Gongsun Zan and I will lose face in front of the princes."

"No, this subordinate will obey." Zhang Liao said.

"Okay, everyone, let's get down to business. Now Li Ru has replaced Guo Si to guard the Sishui Pass. Li Ru is a resourceful man. Let him guard the Sishui Pass. I believe it will be more and more difficult for us to conquer the Sishui Pass. .Now, do you know how you can break through the city?" Zhao Lei looked around and said.

Zhang Han first stood up and said: "Since Li Ru is a wise general, our previous strategy of leading snakes out of the cave should have no effect, so we have to use another way to attack Sishui Pass. For example, use terrain and some other factors to counter Li Ru is fighting. And we have to avoid it, try not to attack the city!" Zhang Han said.

"Terrain? Sishuiguan has natural dangers. We are the one attacking the city. How can we use the terrain?" Zhao Lei asked strangely.

"Siege sometimes requires terrain. As long as we are familiar with the terrain around Sishui Pass, we may find some shortcut mountain roads to bypass Sishui Pass?" Zhang Han said.

"Shortcut? Will there be one?" Zhao Lei asked.

Zhang Han said with a smile: "My lord, why don't you ask the dead soldiers sent by Wang Yue! Many of them have been in Sili's generation for so long, maybe they will know about it?"
