Xu Rong led 20,000 soldiers and horses out of Luoyang, with a fierce momentum, and went straight to Yangcheng. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
When the army marched to Liang County, which was located in Yin, Henan, it had to stop, and there was a force in front of it blocking Xu Rongjun's way. According to the report of Tanma: This is the troops of Changsha Taishou and Wucheng Hou Sun Jian.
After Xu Rong heard this, his expression was solemn: This is what she is most worried about, and she has finally met the real "strong" of this era. And he is also the founder of the three-legged Wu State and the father of Sun Quan, the emperor of Eastern Wu! Xu Rong secretly gritted her teeth: she had promised Dong Xiaoyou that she must take revenge, even if the opponent is Sun Jian, she must find a way to defeat her.
Sun Jianzi Wentai, a native of Fuchun, Wu County, is said to be the descendants of Sun Wuzi. Sun Jian has been brave and resourceful since he was a child, and when he was seventeen years old, he even designed a single person to hold a knife, and scared off a group of bandits with a suspicious tactic, and at the same time he personally killed a person, and has been famous since then.
In the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Sun Jian was the Sima of the Zuo Army, he recruited volunteers, fought with Zhu Jun, and was brave and unparalleled. In the battle of Wancheng, he took the lead and personally went to the city to fight, so the morale of his subordinates was great, and the ants attached to him broke the thieves, and he was worshiped by Zhu Jun as the Sima of other departments.
Later, there were many rebellions in the south, Sun Jian turned the tide, Changsha District gathered thousands of people, called himself a general, attacked the city and pulled the county, and the court worshiped Sun Jian as the Changsha Taishou, and after less than ten months, he broke the district star and others. Zhou Dynasty, Guo Shi and others gathered disciples to make trouble in Guiyang, Lingling and other places, Sun Jian crossed the border to fight, and the three counties were solemn.
He had worked with Dong Zhuo, and Sun Jian was very clear about Dong Zhuo's ambitions. Once when he was crusading against Bian Zhang, he told the then commander-in-chief, Zhang Wen, the general of the chariot cavalry, that Dong Zhuo was rude, unsuccessful, and had different ambitions, and he should be eliminated as soon as possible. However, Zhang Wen was originally a literati, and thought that Dong Zhuo, who had grown up in Liangzhou since childhood, was an indispensable talent for the northwest frontier defense of the Han Dynasty, so he did not listen to Sun Jian's words, so Sun Jian and Dong Zhuo also became mortal enemies.
After Sun Jian received Qiao Mao's letter of crusade against Dong Zhuo, he immediately led his headquarters from Changsha to the north.
When passing through Xiangyang, because Wang Rui, the assassin of Jingzhou, once despised Sun Jian on the grounds that Sun Jian was a martial artist, so Sun Jian secretly formed an alliance with Cao Yin, the Taishou of Wuling, Wang Rui originally planned to raise troops on the grounds of crusading against Dong Zhuo, and also planned to take this opportunity to attack and kill Cao Yin, who was at odds with him, he did not know that Sun Jian colluded and colluded with Cao Yin earlier, and because Sun Jian was a martial artist, he thought that he was just a martial artist with different strategies, so he planned to use Sun Jian to deal with Cao Yin.
Sun Jian first pretended to be friendly with Wang Rui, so that Wang Rui relaxed his vigilance, and then immediately asked Cao Yin to prepare a crusade against Wang Rui's text, Cao Yin then falsely claimed the handwriting of Guanglu doctor Wen Yi, counting Wang Rui's crimes, Sun Jian received the text, that night he sent troops to besiege Wang Rui's pavilion, Wang Rui panicked, shouted upstairs to ask Sun Jian, Sun Jian only said that the soldiers had fought for a long time, and the reward was insufficient, hoping that Wang Rui could take out the wealth, Wang Rui thought that Sun Jian was just trying to make money, so he asked Sun Jian to go to the treasury to take it directly, But Sun Jian attacked more fiercely, Wang Rui panicked and desperate, and asked Sun Jian again and again why, Sun Jian only said: "He was punished by the messenger." Wang Rui asked, "What is my sin?" Sun Jian smiled: "Your sin is that you don't know anything!" Wang Rui saw that the pavilion had been surrounded like an iron bucket, and it was difficult to fly, and finally swallowed gold and died, so Sun Jian annexed the Jingzhou soldiers directly under Wang Rui.
Subsequently, Sun Jian stationed in Nanyang and transferred a letter to Nanyang Taishou Zhang Zhi, asking him to provide military rations. ”
So Zhang Zhi did not give the military rations, Sun Jian thought that Zhang Zhi secretly connected with Dong Zhuo, in order to get rid of the trouble, he falsely claimed that he was seriously ill, which made the sergeant publicize, and invited witch doctors everywhere to treat him, so that Zhang Zhixin thought it was true. Then, Sun Jian wrote a letter to Zhang Zhi, in which he intended to entrust all his military horses to Zhang Zhi. In addition to the Jingzhou army that Sun Jian originally annexed Wang Rui, most of his troops were warriors recruited by him in the Jianghuai area, as well as Changsha and other three counties, elite and good at fighting, not losing to the Liangzhou army, Zhang Zhi was greedy, but he was afraid of fraud, at this time earlier than Sun Jian's alliance Jiangxia Taishou, Dangkou General Liu Xiang deceived Zhang Zhi, thinking that this was Sun Jian's "people are dying and their words are good", so Zhang Jian immediately took five or six hundred people to Sun Jian's military camp to visit him, as a result, Sun Jian took advantage of Zhang Jian's account to visit his illness, suddenly got up, and grabbed Zhang Zhi, After scolding angrily, he was immediately beheaded, so after Sun Jian cleared the power of Nanyang, he immediately entered the army and joined forces with Yuzhou Assassin Shi Kong Ling and others.
After Xu Rong learned why Sun Jian appeared in Liang County at this time, he immediately ordered the army: immediately launch a fierce attack on Sun Jian's army!
After Gao Shun heard this, he hurriedly admonished:
"Sun Jian is brave and good at fighting, and his troops are all elites in a hundred battles, so he is afraid that such a hurried attack will not be good for our army!"
Xu Rong snorted coldly and explained to Gao Shun: "Sun Jian traveled all the way, and in just half a month, he rushed from Changsha to Liang County, and attacked Wang Rui and booby-trapped Zhang Shi. Based on what Ben Jiang thought, he probably never expected that we would come to Liang County at this time. ”
Gao Shun knew that he couldn't persuade this arrogant general, so he kept silent.
Xu Rong then said to the generals: "This attack, the offensive must be fierce, but there is no need to chase and kill, as long as the other party withdraws, we will stop the offensive." ”
Gao Ya, who was beside Gao Shun, couldn't help but ask: "I don't know why the general made this arrangement?" ”
Xu Rong replied: "After all, Sun Jian's army is all elite, and if they are in a hurry, they are afraid that they will jump off the wall in a hurry, and they will definitely fight bravely in order to protect themselves." Therefore, Sun Jian originally wanted to attack Sili as quickly as possible, but he did not expect to encounter a head-on attack from our army here at the beginning, and he would definitely retreat, and then try to enter the army after meeting with the troops of Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling. ”
In fact, Xu Rong still has a little selfishness: encountering Sun Jianjun was actually something she didn't expect, Sun Jian was brave and fierce, and it was not appropriate to fight to the death, but if Sun Jianjun could be forced back, then Sun Jianjun would think that his marching route had been investigated and known by Dong Zhuo. At that time, the route will definitely be changed, if you take another route to Luoyang, you will probably meet the troops of Hu Zhen, Lu Bu and others, no matter what, as long as it does not affect her Xu Rong to kill Yangcheng to take revenge.
The people then asked no more questions, and immediately after withdrawing from the tent, they began to attack.
Ah Chu couldn't help but ask Xu Rong after everyone left: "Xinyi hasn't come back for more than two months, I don't know...... Where did the general let Xinyi go? ”
Miss Rong made her feel more and more strange, and she didn't even dare to ask about Xinyi. But after all, Sima Li handed over such a person to Miss Rong, and Miss Rong also promised that Xinyi would be safe, and now that a big living person has been missing for more than a month, she is becoming more and more worried in her heart: Could it be that Miss Rong has already killed Xinyi in the battle of Jinbei?
Xu Rong smiled lightly: "Ah Chu, don't think so, Xinyi is still useful, how could I kill her now?" You'll find out in a few days that I've given her a very important task. ”
Ah Chu always felt that Miss Rong had something to say, but she didn't dare to be suspicious, and she didn't want to speak casually, so she could only lower her head after all and continue to silently retreat behind Xu Rong.
After all the preparations stopped, Xu Rong divided the 20,000 horses into three routes, the left route led by Gao Shun led 3,000 cavalry, the right route led by Fan Chou led 3,500 cavalry, and the middle road had Gao Ya as the front, leading 1,000 cavalry, followed by Zhang Liao leading 1,500 cavalry, and Xu Rong's headquarters of 11,000 soldiers and horses followed.
Noon was approaching, Xu Rong relied on her excellent eyesight, climbed high and saw from a distance that Sun Jianjun was burying a pot in the camp at this time, she sneered: "The time has come." ”
So he advocated a great work, Gao Ya took the lead in leading a thousand cavalry to break into Sun Jianjun's camp with lightning and thunder, Sun Jianjun was caught off guard, and was killed by a burst of iron cavalry, and corpses were all over the field. At this time, outside Liang County, shouts of killing were everywhere.
Sun Jian reacted sharply, when the elegant 1,000 cavalry entered the camp, he immediately ordered the soldiers of each battalion to form a formation to meet the enemy, in less than a moment, he organized a force and began to besiege the thousand cavalry, and at the same time ordered the troops of each camp to rush to support, he saw that the elegant offensive force was less than 1,000 people, although brave and good at fighting, but his army was not vegetarian, today he Sun Jian here tens of thousands of horses are trampled, can also trample these thousands of people into pulp!
Seeing that Sun Jian had organized a military counterattack in a hurry, Xu Rong immediately ordered Zhang Liao's 1,500 cavalry to break into the formation, and at the same time, released a signal, ordering Fan Chou and Gao Shun, who were outflanked by the two wings, to also lead the army to kill. Although most of Sun Jian's army were elite and brave generals, most of them were infantry from the southern region, and at this time they suddenly encountered such a large-scale impact of cavalry troops, and because they marched for days, fatigue accumulated, and for a while, the formation that was finally lined up was completely dispersed by the four cavalry troops laid by Xu Rong, and the battle that should have been evenly matched turned into a one-sided massacre by Xu Rongjun.
Sun Jian put on his horse at this time, and looked at the chaotic battle situation caused by the cavalry's left and right rushing left and right in annoyance, and his heart was full of shame and anger. Seeing that his elite soldiers were killed by the Xiliang cavalry in a burst, and they had no power to fight back, Sun Jian was indignant, and immediately picked up his spear and prepared to break into the battle formation.
His brother Sun Jing hurriedly dissuaded him: "Now that my brother is the commander of an army, how can he personally enter the battle array?" ”
The general Cheng Pu also dissuaded: "Dong Zhuo's army is attacking fiercely, presumably the route of our army has been exposed, and now it is better to retreat to Nanyang first, and wait for Kong Ling's reinforcements to converge, and then take another way to enter Luoyang!" ”
Sun Jian said angrily: "I want to fight for the country, but now that I am in battle, how can I retreat?" At the beginning of the battle in Wancheng, there were only 1,000 people in our department, and there were tens of thousands of thieves, and I was not afraid. Now I personally lead tens of thousands of soldiers in Jingzhou, but it is not as good as before, and I have to retreat? ”
Cheng Pu said: "General, this time, that time!" Although we have a lot of soldiers now, Wang Rui's department and Zhang Zhi's department have a large number of soldiers and soldiers, and they have not yet integrated into our army in a hurry, so it is naturally difficult to control at this time, so although there are many soldiers, they are fighting separately, and they are naturally not the opponents of Dong Thief's army! ”
Cheng Pu's words finally calmed Sun Jian, and after he judged the situation, he immediately returned to the calm and warlike famous general Sun Jian:
"Pass my orders! The whole army retreated! ”
If the other party intends to kill them all, he will immediately turn the horse's head and fight with him, not to mention, Sun Jian himself is also very good at fighting such a counterattack. It's just that he saw that although the offensive of Dong Zhuojun was fierce, it did not block his battalions and horses, and many soldiers took advantage of the chaos to escape and no one pursued them, so he thought: Dong Zhuojun has no intention of fighting with himself to the end, presumably his purpose is not his own.
In any case, he is now tired of soldiers, and his original soldiers and horses, Wang Rui's soldiers and horses, and Zhang Shi's soldiers and horses, the three forces have not had time to reconcile, and they are not suitable for a decisive battle. He did advance a little, but fortunately, if he encountered Dong Zhuo's own army, then he would be in danger.
At this time, Xu Rong's headquarters soldiers and horses were also killed, Xu Rong was holding a jade waist bow, and only one arrow was fired, which was in the middle of the banner of Sun Jian's military camp.
"General Xu is brave!"
After all the soldiers saw it, they all regarded it as a celestial man, and the battle became more and more vigorous.
Sun Jian saw that he could not delay any longer, so he immediately ordered the troops to withdraw from the battlefield, although the two sides fought for a while, but the loss was not large, Xu Rongjun only suffered more than 100 casualties, Sun Jianjun left hundreds of corpses, and hastily withdrew from Liang County. Because Xu Rong had already given the order before, and the soldiers in the army at this time were quite respectful to Xu Rong, and no one disobeyed the general's order, a battle that was originally 20,000 against tens of thousands of people was avoided, and Sun Jian was defeated and went to Nanyang.
Sun Jian fled all the way, Xu Rong's arrow made him feel terrified, such a long-distance archery technique, I am afraid that it is unheard of. He suddenly remembered that when Dong Zhuojun defeated Wang Kuang of Hanoi two months ago, someone shot and killed Fang Li, the general of Wang Kuang's subordinates, in the battle of Ha Yangjin, could it be the same person?
"Demou (Cheng Puzi), do you know who the general of Dong Zhuojun who fought with our army just now?" Sun Jian asked.
"General Hui, I see a Xu character on the main flag, which is probably Xu Rong who broke Wang Kuang in northern Jinbei two months ago!"
Cheng Pu replied.
"Sure enough...... Okay, what a Xu Rong! ”
Sun Jian suddenly laughed out loud on the horse,
"I thought that Dong Zhuo guy was not afraid at all, but I didn't expect it...... This old thing can actually recruit such a powerful general. ”
After he finished laughing, his face became more and more gloomy:
"Xu Rong...... I'm really looking forward to winning the next battle with them! ”
