Although Sun Jian quickly gave the order to retreat, Xu Rongbu quickly killed Sun Jian's troops, after all, how could some soldiers who could not eat enough to defeat the fresh forces of the dragons and tigers, and the combat power of these new forces was not weak.

After killing Sun Jian's troops, Xu Rong immediately locked the position of the main general Sun Jian, and then began to lead his troops in pursuit.

When Sun Jian found out that Xiliang Jun was chasing after him, he immediately began to look for a chance to escape.

After escaping for a while, Sun Jian got lost in the dark and came to a river.

When Xu Rong, who was in hot pursuit, saw that there was a dead end in front of Sun Jian, he suddenly said loudly: "General Wentai, you have no way out, why don't you quickly dismount and surrender?" ”

After hearing Xu Rong's voice, Sun Jian immediately guessed that this was the chief general of the Xiliang Army, because only the chief general dared to let him surrender to the general and assassin of Yuzhou.

After guessing Xu Rong's approximate identity, Sun Jian immediately replied: "I am the general of the Son of Heaven and the assassin of Yuzhou, what virtue do you have, how can you let me surrender?" ”

Seeing Sun Jian say this, Xu Rong followed and said: "General Wentai, your official position is just a favor done by my lord, if my lord is willing, you will lose all your current official positions at any time, but my lord cherishes the talent of the general, so he let you go." ”

"Hahaha, this is really the biggest joke I've ever heard in the world, how can I, Sun Wentai, be grateful for the favor of the traitor Dong Zhuo."

When he said this, Sun Jian also roughly saw the flow speed of the river in front of him.

When he confirmed that he could jump into the river and escape, Sun Jian immediately said to Xu Rong: "I, Sun Jian, am a hero, even if I die, I will never be a prisoner under the command of Dong Thief." After saying that, Sun Jian abandoned his horse and jumped into the river.

Seeing Sun Jian jumping into the river, Xu Rong came to the river helplessly to take a look.

When Xu Rong saw that the river was quite turbulent, he immediately sighed and said, "It's a pity that Sun Jian is a tiger general!" ”

After sighing, Xu Rong led his troops to rush in the direction of Yique Pass.

Besides, after Sun Jian jumped into the river, because he was born in Jiangdong and had outstanding water nature, Sun Jian quickly swam across the river and successfully landed.

After going ashore, Sun Jian hurried in the direction of Yique Pass without delay.

It's a pity that when Sun Jian arrived at Yique Pass, Yique Pass had already fallen back into the hands of the Xiliang army.

After seeing this situation, Sun Jian had to take a detour.

At this point, Yique Pass changed hands several times and finally fell into the hands of the Xiliang Army.

After Xu Rong regained control of Yique Pass, he immediately reorganized his army and horses to strengthen his defenses.

When Yuan Shu's grain convoy arrived near Yique Pass, they soon received news of Sun Jian's defeat and Yique Pass falling back into the hands of the Western Liang army.

Immediately, Yuan Shu's grain transportation team immediately turned around and turned back.

Besides, after Xu Rong strengthened the garrison of Yique Pass, he immediately captured Sun Jian's subordinates in the pass.

It's a pity that the three generals under Sun Jian, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang are not so easy to catch, and they have also taken a detour after several rounds.

Xu Rong, who had been arrested for a few days and failed to catch a general, finally reluctantly gave up the arrest, and at the same time sent someone to report to Dong Zhuo.

When Dong Zhuo learned that Xu Rong had defeated Sun Jian's troops and recaptured Yique Pass, Dong Zhuo shouted hello, and then immediately sent someone to summon Li Ru.

After Li Ru came to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo smiled at Li Ru and said, "Wenyou! Xu Rong lived up to expectations, not only defeated Sun Jian, but also reoccupied Yique Pass, I can finally sleep well now, this is all your credit! ”

"The lord has a good reputation! The minister just saw the move, and the minister failed to persuade General Wentai to surrender to the lord, so he really didn't dare to take credit! ”

"Wenyou, Sun Wentai is a hero in the world, I didn't have much hope to persuade him, but now that Xu Rong has defeated Sun Jian, I don't dare to come back in a short time, I can finally sleep a little now."

After Li Ru heard this, he immediately laughed.

Besides, when Yuan Shu learned that Sun Jian was defeated due to food shortage, and Sun Jian and his three generals Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang were all missing, Yuan Shu suddenly became angry at the ministers under his command, because Sun Jian is a rare general, and Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang are also well-known fierce generals.

After venting, although Yuan Shu wanted to execute the staff member who gave him bad ideas, but thinking of his reputation, Yuan Shu finally did not execute the staff member who gave him bad ideas, but demoted him.

After that, Yuan Shu summoned his ministers and said to everyone: "Everyone, now that Sun Wentai's whereabouts are unknown after the fiasco, only my army is left on the south side of Luoyang, if I don't attack Yique Pass for a long time, it will inevitably make Yuan Shao laugh at me, but if I attack Yique Pass, I am afraid that it will be difficult to break through the city, I don't know if you have the best of both worlds, so that I don't have to suffer Yuan Shao's shame, but also capture Yique Pass." ”

After the ministers saw Yuan Shu throw out such a dilemma, everyone muttered in their hearts, because it was Yuan Shu himself who buried the good situation, if Yuan Shu had sent troops to help Sun Jian a long time ago, I am afraid that now their army can enter Luoyang City to drink and have fun.

Besides, when Yuan Shu saw that the ministers had been struggling and couldn't come up with a solution, he suddenly thought with chagrin: "It's all because that treacherous villain actually let me go to the embankment of Sun Wentai, if I sent troops before, how could I still worry about these problems, it's really hateful." ’

At this time, a soldier rushed to the hall to report: "Report! Lord Gong, General Cheng Pucheng returns to the camp! ”

"What? Cheng Pu is back, please soon! ”

After the soldier received the order, he immediately went back and brought Cheng Pu to Yuan Shu.

When he saw Cheng Pu, Yuan Shu immediately stepped down from the main seat and came to Cheng Pu's side and asked, "General Cheng, you are back, you don't know how much I miss you." ”

When Cheng Pu heard this, a disdainful expression suddenly appeared on his face, and then he replied: "General Yuan, I'm afraid you wish we were all dead!" ”

After hearing this, Yuan Shu's face suddenly became very embarrassed, because what Cheng Pu said was completely true, but Yuan Shu was thick-skinned after all, so he didn't hear Cheng Pu's sarcasm.

Cheng Pu saw that Yuan Shu was so brazen, and he had nothing to say, so he asked Yuan Shu directly: "General Yuan, I wonder if General Huang Gai, General Han Dang, and my lord have ever returned?" After encountering the surprise attack of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, a few of us quickly scattered and fled. ”

"I don't know ...... this very well."

Seeing that Yuan Shu couldn't ask the answer he wanted here, Cheng Pu immediately clasped his fists and saluted, and then said: "In this case, the end will be goodbye!" ”

"Don't! General Cheng Pu, I believe that if General Sun Wentai, General Han Yigong, and General Huang Gongfu escaped from their lives, they would definitely return to Luyang County, and you can wait a little longer in Luyang County. ”

After careful consideration, Cheng Pu immediately replied: "What General Yuan said is not unreasonable, then the general will wait in Luyang County." ”

"Okay, I'll arrange a reception banquet for General Cheng Pu."

"No need, the last general is the general of the defeated army, and he doesn't dare to disturb General Yuan." After leaving this sentence, Cheng Pu said goodbye to Yuan Shu.

The ministers under Yuan Shu's command saw that Cheng Pu was very rude, and they immediately slandered Yuan Shu, but this time, Yuan Shu didn't listen to a word, after all, he still wanted to rely on Sun Jian and his subordinates to retake Yique Pass.
