Sun Guan walked over slowly.

I've been out on patrol for four hours, and I'm a little tired, and I'm sitting on horseback unconcernedly.

The soldiers were tired, but they still had to do their job.

At this point, they don't know that danger is approaching them.

Three squads have been lying in ambush there for a long time.

The team leader whispered a word of preparation, and made a small gesture with a gesture.

Suddenly, the soldiers in ambush slowly raised their bows and crossbows.

"Put."

Suddenly, the squad leader yelled.

The soldiers fired their crossbows.

More than a dozen people shot at Sun Guan at the same time.

Sun Guan was shocked, heard the movement, and turned around.

But what he saw was fear.

More than a dozen arrows flew.

There was no time to dodge, and he was hit by several arrows in his body.

"Retreat, shield cover."

Shoot Sun Guan, and before the enemy can fully react, they quickly evacuate.

The ambushers began to retreat and ran towards the mountains.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack."

At this time, the Cao soldiers reacted.

However, they came out on patrol with a limited number of archers.

"Quick, archers attack, attack."

Nearly a minute passed, and only then did a young general come out and shout to fight back.

Sun Guan died, and there were no other generals below.

When you come out on patrol, one general is enough, and there are small generals like centurions at the bottom to assist.

Eventually, arrows began to attack, but the people were no longer in the place where they had been ambushed.

Cao Jun's reaction was correct, and when someone was attacked, they lay down and dodged.

Then get up and fight back.

As a result, the enemy kills only one person and only their generals.

"Quick, there are not many enemies, and the average person goes to pursue."

Hundreds of men were sent in pursuit, and by this time the special forces had retreated.

When they pursued them, another bolt of arrows was fired from them, killing a dozen of them.

They had only bows and arrows, not crossbow arrows.

Bows and arrows are almost useless in the woods.

Bows and arrows are not very easy to shoot horizontally, and the woods are full of obstacles.

After pursuing for a while, to no avail, they retreated.

Sun Guan was killed, and they had no way to continue their mission, so they could only carry Sun Guan's body back.

In the middle of the night, Lu Bu received the news, and he didn't say a word with a black face.

Sun Guan has been his general for many years and one of the eight strong generals.

At this time, Lu Bu's subordinates could make him trust less and less.

The previous two betrayed him and surrendered to Cao Cao, causing the city gates to be opened.

Gao Shun surrendered, Sun Guan died, and now Lu Bu relies on Zhang Liao and Zang Ba the most.

Lu Bu's face was gloomy, but he didn't say anything.

After the soldier was gone, he sat there alone and sulked.

A subordinate general was killed in this way, and it was somewhat unclear.

Now, Lu Bu can't be angry for Sun Guan.

Lu Bu called Zhang Liao.

"Wen Yuan, I'll deal with Zhang Ming's attack in front, and you can handle the patrol in the rear, and I'll leave it all to you."

"Yes, General."

Zhang Liao is gone, and Lu Bu misses Chen Gong a little.

When they cooperated with Chen Gong, the two also had a lot of quarrels, and the two often disagreed.

But with Chen Gong here, he can help him deal with a lot of things, and he can also help solve many things.

He has surrendered to Cao Cao now, and everything is still not going well.

The battle continues.

The special squad didn't know who they killed, but it didn't matter, they just knew that they had killed a general.

As for the rank of general, they don't care.

The special team was evacuated safely and was very happy.

They began to plan their next move.

The next morning, they received information that a food delivery team was coming.

The leader of the squad is also Song Chen, who proposed to attack the general before.

Song Chen said: "There are not many enemies patrolling, we might as well attack their grain transport team and burn their grain and grass, so that the enemy will definitely pay attention to it and send more people to come, so that we will have more opportunities to attack." ”

Another squad leader said: "The truth is this, but the enemy has hundreds of people, we can't burn many people, and if we let the lord know, in order to order some food and grass, we will have casualties, and we will definitely not be able to hold back." ”

The value of a special soldier is very high, and Zhang Ming does not allow them to take risks casually.

"In this case, we will attack their generals, and wait for the opportunity to burn some more, and if the enemy feels threatened, they will send more troops and horses."

Song Chen's proposal made the others agree.

"Okay, then let's go to the rear and ask for some gas, they have some left."

The three of them agreed, and the arrangement began.

They have to calculate the speed of the enemy and predict when and where they will pass.

They have long been familiar with this area, and after calculation, the difference may be between several miles.

A few miles, it doesn't have much impact on them.

At this time, each detachment has a map of the whole.

After Zhang Ming and the others gathered the map in the rear, they remade the map and sent it to each detachment.

The detachments continued to reconnoitre, updating the map every few days and sending them the latest map.

This required Zhang Ming to cultivate a team specializing in making maps, and there were more than 30 people accompanying the army at this time, all of whom were very professional.

After the three of them decided, they began to prepare.

It was a small grain transport team, with only a few hundred people.

Cao Jun arranged it like this, it was burned, and they were not distressed.

In the afternoon, the detachments were ready and ready to start.

They were ambushed on both sides this time.

Everything is ready.

The grain transport team came slowly.

This grain road is still safe, and they walked several times.

Although the road is not easy to walk, their goal is small and it is always safe.

"Ready."

Song Chen kept his eyes on the enemy and entered the ambush circle.

"Attack."

Patrolling, many stones were pushed down in front of him, blocking the road.

At the same time, many ambushed crossbowmen began to shoot important targets.

For example, generals or commanders and the like.

There are no generals in this team, some are small commanders and the like.

The enemy was attacked, and there was chaos.

"Throw."

And he threw out many bottles and threw them on the grain and grass.

These are filled with gasoline, and the bottles will break when they are smashed.

"Put the rocket."

The soldiers lit rockets with lighters and began to attack.

Not long after, many grain trucks caught fire.

"Keep firing the arrows."

This time, it's the army that kills and wounds the enemy.

After several rounds of arrows in a row, Song Chen saw that the fire had grown up.

"Retreat."

This attack, about ten minutes before and after, killed and wounded more than 100 enemies, and burned half of their grain and grass.

Attack with gasoline, the fire comes up, and it will be very difficult for them to be extinguished.

After burning the grain and grass, Song Chen and the others hurriedly evacuated and did not entangle with them.

Not much grain and grass was burned this time, but the impact was definitely there.

Lü Bu received news a few hours later that he had handed over the matter to Zhang Liao, and that he had also sent a letter to Cao Ren.

Cao Ren was injured and has not received good treatment, often has headaches, and is unable to handle military affairs.

That's a big question.

Lu Bu was very passive at this time, and handed over the matter to his subordinates, so he asked a little, regardless of the specifics.

Now, if he encounters any problems, he will report them to Cao Ren, and if Cao Ren has any specific instructions, he will hand them over to his subordinates.

A day passed, Song Chen and they attacked three times, two successful, one failed.

A few of them were wounded, but none died.

It's going well.

Song Chen sent the report to the rear every day.

And the rear sent someone to send it to Zhang Ming once every two days, unless there was something important that needed to be sent immediately, it would be two days.

Zhang Ming received a message from the front.

"Well, it's time to attack, force the enemy to withdraw, I can't afford it, and the enemy can't afford it."

"Zilong, you personally lead the special squad to wreak havoc in the rear, and you can take risks when necessary.

"Unless the enemy can send tens of thousands of troops to protect this grain route, in the mountains, it is the world of our special forces."

"In addition, commend Song Chen and a few squad leaders, and give them credit after the war is over."

"Okay, big brother, I'll do it."

When Zhao Yun went to the rear to command, Xun You came.

He succeeded Cao Ren.

"General Cao, you can go to the rear to cultivate with peace of mind."

Cao Ren nodded, and then said, "I'm sorry for you, I have some things to explain..."

Cao Ren was seriously ill, plus he was not well rested when he was dealing with military affairs, and he was already very weak at this time.

Xun You came, and the order was also transmitted to all the armies.

When Lu Bu received the news, he said with disdain: "Can changing people change the current situation?" ”

Cao Ren's sudden departure still had a great impact on the following.

Xun You was Cao Cao's important adviser, but he never actually led troops, and his prestige was insufficient.

Xun You has just arrived, and he is still familiar with military affairs.

At this time, in the rear, hundreds of special forces began to wreak havoc.

"Report to the military division, one of the generals of our army was shot."

"Report to the military division, a grain transportation team of our army was attacked, and hundreds of stones of grain and grass were lost."

"Report to the military division, one of our generals was killed, and more than 130 soldiers were lost."

One day, more than a dozen pieces of bad news, which dealt a heavy blow to Xun You, who had just taken office.

In the rear, Zhao Yun scattered the squads out and attacked and harassed them everywhere within a long range.

This also caused a lot of casualties to Cao's army, with more than 600 casualties a day.

Many of them were officers, although only two partial generals died, and their positions were not very high.

But dozens of centurions or so officers died.

This was also a big blow to Cao Jun.

Zhao Yun continued to attack everywhere.

Xun You personally went to find Lu Bu, because Lu Bujun was responsible for this.

"Wen Hou, the enemy is rampant, we should design an ambush to strike their arrogance." Xun You discussed with Lu Bu.

Lu Bu's face was dark.

He was very unhappy, and it was his people who died.

With so many deaths among his lower-ranking officers, the combat effectiveness of the army will decline rapidly.

The most important thing is that over the years, Lu Bu's descendants have suffered too many casualties, and now there are more than 10,000 real descendants, and the death of several people makes Lu Bu very sad.

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to ambush the enemy immediately."

Lu Bu coped with it, but he didn't think so in his heart.

He also understood that Zhang Liao had arranged many times, but the special team always evacuated after a few minutes.

They don't care about the outcome of the battle, as long as they attack, they will retreat regardless of the outcome of the battle.

In the mountains, attacking with a bow and arrow has almost no effect.

Zhang Liao tried to ambush several times, but the enemy did not rush down to fight them.

And it's useless for them to pursue.

On the mountain road, how can ordinary soldiers pursue the special forces, not to mention that these special forces have someone to answer and someone to block them.

Zhang Liao has tried many methods, and if it is in other places, it is easy to prevent it.

But on this mountain trail, it is completely useless.

The whole section of the road is controlled, unrealistic, and there are not enough manpower.

After chasing a few times, he didn't encounter anyone's shadow, and his losses were not small.

Xun You is gone.

Lu Bu didn't take it seriously.

Although he is negative, he also loves his subordinates, if he really can't help it, Lu Bu can go on it in person.

The special forces are in the mountains, and they are too difficult to deal with.

With such a long mountain road, anywhere could be a place for them to haunt.

These ordinary soldiers simply had no way to defend themselves.

A large number of officers were killed and wounded, and Lu Bu was actually very annoyed.

But he had no choice, judging from Zhang Liao's report, this was an elite army that specialized in sneak attacks.

"Whoever likes to go will go, Lao Tzu's soldiers don't want to die in vain."

Lu Bu didn't do nothing, at least let Zhang Liao find a way.

Zhang Liao could only get some more shields, and the generals wore the clothes of ordinary soldiers.

In this way, the number of casualties among officers was much reduced.

Zhang Ming's army, I don't know that those are officers, it can only be random.

Zhang Liao also tried to send people into the mountains to search, but the people who entered the mountains suffered heavy losses.

"What an army that can't be touched."

"I don't know how many of them there are until now."

Zhang Liao had never fought such a battle, and he was holding his breath.

Now, although the casualties of the officers have dropped, their food and grass are still often attacked.

That unknown liquid can ignite a fire in an instant.

The efficiency of grain transportation was greatly reduced, and the morale of the army was greatly damaged by the occasional raids.

At this time, on the frontal battlefield, Zhang Ming did not go to war, so he sent troops to put on a show every day.

Put pressure on the enemy.

Choosing a mountainous area to block Zhang Ming was originally a good flag, and Zhang Ming might not be able to fight for a few years.

However, at this time, the rear attack made Cao's army face great difficulties.

For a few days, there was no progress, and Xun Yu was very difficult to do.

"Yesterday it was attacked more than 20 times, burning a lot of food, killing and injuring more than 400 people."

"Today, there have been more than 30 attacks, more than 700 dead and wounded, and more than 100 truckloads of grain and grass have been burned."

Xun You looked at the numbers reported and was very angry.

"Military division, Lu Bu is slack, it is better to send other troops to attack and let Lu Bu change his defense." A general said.

"No, if you change your guard at this time, Lu Bu will definitely be dissatisfied in his heart, which will only increase the risk."

For Lu Bu, Xun You is still very cautious.

"In this way, our military rations have been threatened, although they are not burned much, but they are also burned by a fifth in a day."

If this goes on for a long time, there will definitely be a big problem.

At this time, they have changed commanders, and they have changed generals, and there are too many things that cannot be controlled.

If Lu Bu is dissatisfied in his heart, he will turn against them.

Xun You said: "This battle is no longer sustainable, I will immediately repair the book to the lord." ”

"Keep it strictly confidential, guard carefully, and don't let the soldiers know."

After some assessment, Xun You felt that if it continued, quantitative changes would cause qualitative changes, and the army might be at risk of collapse.

Xun You felt that he should retreat slowly, resist step by step, and delay Zhang Ming's footsteps.
