Chapter 73: Huang Zu's suspicions
Jiangxia County, Sanjiangkou, Yuan Yao Daying.
Yuan Yao led the army back to the camp and just stepped off the warship, when he saw Mao Xiang hurriedly stepped forward to report: "Lord, the Changsha Guard Station has just sent back the news quickly, Sun Ce led 50,000 Jiangdong soldiers and horses to invade Changsha County, and the troops arrived in Xiajun County yesterday afternoon, and set up a large camp twenty miles east of the city. ”
"Today, Sun Ce personally led 20,000 soldiers and horses to challenge the Jingzhou army, and Liu Pan, the son of Jingzhou, led 10,000 Jingzhou troops out of the camp to meet the battle. The two sides fought first, Jingzhou general Huang Zhong successively defeated Jiangdong general Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Han Dang three generals, Jiangdong general Ling Tong continued to challenge, Huang Zhong fought four generals in a row and walked away without physical strength, Ling Tong was reflexively shot by Huang Zhong with a cold arrow! ”
"The morale of the Jingzhou army was greatly boosted, Liu Pan then waved the army to cover the kill, but Sun Ce and the Jiangdong generals did not retreat, the Jiangdong army soldiers also fought back desperately, the Jingzhou army won first and then defeated, even Liu Pan himself was almost beheaded by Sun Ce, fortunately Huang Zhong desperately protected it to save it, the Jingzhou army immediately retreated, Huang Zhong led the army to the death, and finally most of the Jingzhou army retreated into the camp, Sun Ce took advantage of the situation to chase and kill was also repelled by the Jingzhou army's random arrows and could only Mingjin withdraw the troops."
"In this battle, the Jingzhou army suffered heavy casualties and lost at least more than 2,000 people, although the Jiangdong army did not lose many soldiers and horses, but it broke a general, and the loss was even greater than that of the Jingzhou army!"
Yuan Yao couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this, Ling Tong actually died in battle again?
Due to his own reasons, he avoided Gan Ning's arrow, but he didn't expect him to be planted in Huang Zhong's hands again, it seems that he is destined to be shot to death in Jingzhou, and no one can save him!
These things are all trivial, Yuan Yao was slightly stunned and skipped this question, laughed and said: "Hahahaha, good fight, good fight!" The Jingzhou army suffered heavy casualties, Jiangdong soldiers and horses broke another general, the two sides added new hatred to old hatred, and a big war was inevitable! Shiyuan, what do you think? ”
Pang Tong replied with a smile: "Congratulations to the lord, congratulations to the lord!" Originally, the minister was a little worried that our army would capture the Sanjiangkou so quickly, which would attract the attention of the Jiangdong army and the Jingzhou army, but now it seems that the minister's concerns can be dispelled. Since the Jiangdong Army and the Jingzhou Army have been at war, and both sides have suffered losses, under such new and old hatreds, neither of them will retreat easily, so as not to give the other party an opportunity to take advantage of! ”
"And even better is the current situation of the Jiangdong Army and the Jingzhou Army: the Jiangdong Army was defeated first and then won, even if it wins the first battle, it will definitely lose its spirit; The Jingzhou army won first and then lost, which not only broke the spirit of the Jiangdong army, but also dispelled its own arrogance, and then the Jingzhou army will definitely guard the camp and not easily engage the Jiangdong army. ”
"From the perspective of our side, the Jiangdong Army and the Jingzhou Army, now our army is attacking the city and breaking the wall, while the Jiangdong Army and the Jingzhou Army are both defeated. The Jiangdong Army and the Jingzhou Army contain each other, and our army can take advantage of this opportunity to take Jiangxia County! ”
Yuan Yao nodded and said with a smile: "What Shi Yuan said is very much in line with my wishes, if today, people and people are in my hands, Huang Zu can stop my tens of thousands of troops by relying on the geographical advantages!" The order goes down, and tomorrow the camp crosses the Sanjiangkou and goes to Xiakou! ”
"No! We will obey! ”
……
Sanjiangkou Shuizhai is lost, Yuan Yao's army can take a warship to detour to the other side of the Jiangxia Mountain Range at any time, or even directly under Xiakou City, Jiangxia Mountain can not be garrisoned for a long time, and the supplies and materials needed by Su Fei's army must also be obtained from Xiakou City, Sanjiangkou Shuizhai is lost, if Su Fei does not retreat from the mountain, he will definitely become a soil rat in the turtle mountain in the urn.
That night, Su Fei took advantage of the night to lead 10,000 troops to withdraw from the Jiangxia Mountains, Yuan Yao's army was not familiar with the military situation on the other side of the Sanjiangkou waterway, so he did not send troops and horses to intercept, Su Fei's army successfully retreated to Xiakou City.
After Huang Zu learned about the loss of Sanjiangkou Water Village, he was furious, and after Su Fei returned to the city, he immediately sent someone to bring him, and asked angrily: "Su Fei, I trust you so much, let you lead 10,000 troops to garrison Sanjiangkou alone, the terrain of Sanjiangkou is as dangerous as the sky, why did you lose the city and lose your troops in just a few days!" ”
Su Fei bowed down and said: "The last general has lost his troops and lost his land, and he has high hopes for the lord, and please punish the lord!" ”
Huang Zu continued to ask thoughtfully: "I heard that you asked Gan Ning to lead the army to garrison the Sanjiangkou Water Village?" ”
Su Fei didn't understand what Huang Zu meant, and replied hesitantly: "Yes, Gan Xingba is brave and good at fighting, and his performance in this battle is ,......."
Huang Zu didn't wait for Su Fei to finish speaking, and directly interrupted: "Hmph! If he is brave and good at fighting, then why did Sanjiangkou Water Village fall in just a few days? ”
Su Feiqiang explained: "In this ......, Yuan Yao's army is outnumbered, and Gan Xingba is outnumbered, which makes Sanjiangkou Shuizhai lost. ”
Huang Zu snorted coldly, and then said, "I don't think this matter is true, right? I heard people say that Yuan Yao's general Zhang Dingbian recruited him yesterday and made a heavy promise, but the Sanjiangkou Water Village was declared lost today, so these two things have nothing to do with each other! ”
"This ......, this ......, Gan Ning is chivalrous and courageous, and his actions have always been upright, and he has the style of an ancient hero, and he is definitely not the kind of person who defected before the battle. Moreover, it is thanks to his sacrifice that the remnants of my water village were able to return today, which is enough to prove ......"
Huang Zu took the case and shouted angrily: "Enough to prove? Enough to prove something! And how did I hear people say that Gan Ning was not sacrificed for his life, but was personally released by the enemy general! If Gan Ning really has the kind of ability you said, why would the enemy general let him come back and leave a big trouble for himself! Well? ”
"This ......, this ......"
After all, these things are too bizarre and coincidental, and Su Fei doesn't know how to explain this and that to Gan Ning.
Huang Zu saw that Su Fei was speechless, and he became even more angry in his heart, and continued to reprimand: "I think that Gan Ning has obviously already secretly served Yuan Yao'er, otherwise how could Sanjiangkou Tianqiao be lost so easily, and why would the enemy general let him back!" After he made a gesture for the soldiers of our army, it was clearly to win the trust of the army and return to the city with the army, and he must have returned to the city this time to find an opportunity to sacrifice the city, as a vote for him to serve Yuan Yao'er! And you say, where is Gan Ning now? ”
Su Fei saw that Huang Zu actually had a killing intent, and fell to the ground with a 'plop', crying: "Lord, the last general can guarantee that Gan Xingba will never defect to the enemy, if the lord is not at ease, the last general can first contact his military power and detain him in the last general's mansion!" Now that the war is coming, killing the general for no reason may be in danger of shaking the morale of the army, my lord! ”
Seeing that Su Fei was so stubborn, Huang Zu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then let's act like this." ”
"The last general has thanked the lord!"
