"Report! General Lee!! Mr. Jia said that although there are many people like us, at this time, it is like a giant beast that has been stripped of its claws and limbs and wants to pounce on the wolf's den. If the giant beast is usually able to destroy the wolf's den with one palm, but now it has lost its claws and limbs, it is like a tiger falling into Pingyang and being bullied by dogs! ”

Indeed, more than 40,000 Liangzhou soldiers were killed by the defenders of less than 8,000 people in Tongguan without backhand, and it is indeed appropriate to describe it as a tiger falling to Pingyang.

And this time, Guo Yan and the first-class generals no longer had any objections, and they all acquiesced. Guo Yan opened his mouth, but he stopped talking, if he didn't care about this face, he would definitely persuade Li Xun to withdraw immediately. All because of the current war situation, it is really difficult for Guo Yan to mention the will to fight, the Liangzhou army is getting more and more poisoned, there is no combat power at all, they almost have to pay the price of a dozen soldiers to shoot one of the opponent's soldiers, and if this continues, no matter how many troops will be exhausted!

Li Xuan glared at Guo Yan fiercely, and the hatred for Guo Yan in his heart became deeper and deeper, this person was not enough to succeed and more than to lose, from the last expedition to Hedong to this capture of Tongguan, he repeatedly damaged his overall situation. Li Xun, if he didn't see that the two had a deep relationship when they worked together in Liangzhou, he would have killed him a long time ago to vent his hatred.

"Pass my order, and the whole army will retreat immediately!"

Li urged his throat and shouted loudly, as soon as his voice fell, the sword and shield soldiers who were being shot crooked by the defenders of Tongguan immediately retreated frantically, they had long lost their will to fight, and they didn't know how much they wanted to hear the word retreat.

The defenders on Tongguan saw that the Liangzhou army was about to withdraw, and their morale skyrocketed, and more than 7,000 soldiers were all red-eyed, thinking that shooting one more would make one more money, reducing the danger in the future, and pulling the bowstring with their lives, shooting arrows one by one. Bang Bang!!

Countless arrows fell on the shield wall composed of Liangzhou sword and shield soldiers like a downpour, and the force was so strong that after the shields of many Liangzhou sword and shield soldiers were knocked away, many Liangzhou soldiers were shot.

After several rounds of violent arrow attacks, the Liangzhou army finally withdrew from the archery range of the defenders of Tongguan, and the formation rushed towards the foot of the mountain in the rear.

At this time, Guan Yu walked towards Wen Han quickly, without him opening his mouth, Wen Han already knew his thoughts. Wen Han narrowed his eyes as sharp as knives and shook his head at Guan Yu.

"Just now I was in the formation of the Liangzhou Army, and I saw the banner of the word 'Li'. Under Dong Zhuo, the one surnamed Li who can be a general is undoubtedly Li Xuan or Li Ru. Li Ru is insidious and cunning, full of scheming. And there is a master under Li Yu who is even more terrifying than Li Ru. Therefore, no matter who is the general, we need to be extremely cautious.

If the second brother wants to lead the troops to chase and kill at this time, he is afraid that he will be ambushed. ”

Guan Yu heard Wen Han's tone was very solemn, so he nodded in understanding. After that, Wen Han ordered the soldiers to extinguish the straw lit outside the gate with water, and then ordered the soldiers to drink the medicinal soup that had been prepared. These decoctions can relieve the toxicity of sulfur, and the main medicine of this medicinal decoction was found in the vicinity of the sulfur mining mine.

Wen Han was a top spy in later life, and he dealt with poisons a lot on weekdays, and understood that if the creatures and vegetation around it can coexist with any poisonous area, it shows that there must be some kind of mutual restraint relationship between it and poisonous substances. There must be something detoxifying near the poison!

On the mountainside, Jia Xu stared at the direction of Tongguan on the mountain for a while, and after a while, the faint smile on the corner of his mouth was put away, and he muttered faintly.

"It seems that the champion of this article is really cautious. Such a good time to send a large army to chase and kill me made me wait for a long time in vain. That's it. ”

Jia Xu said, then turned his gaze to the already burned straw pile on the side, and reached out to grab a handful, and the black ash was sandwiched with some half-burned yellow powder. Jia Xu frowned, pinched the yellow powder with his hand, and sniffed it again.

"Huh? It's like brimstone. It turned out that the yellow smoke was emitted by the burning of the sulfur. ”

After Jia Xu thought for a while, he waved his hand, and then the two armies of soldiers and horses in ambush on the mountain road slowly ran out.

"No wait. Let's go back, eighty percent of the champions of this article will not come to chase. ”

When Jia Xu returned to the village at the foot of the mountain, Li Xu greeted him at the gate of the village and looked at him expectantly. Jia Xu shook his head, and Li Xu couldn't help but feel powerless. Originally, I thought that Jia Xu could win back a game for him, annihilate some defenders of Tongguan, and relieve the pressure for the next battle.

"This champion is really so good, would he even guess that we have an ambush?"

"Hmm. He was born in a poor family, and in this situation where there is no cold family and no family, he can mix with the guard of a county, of course, he has his advantages. What is the champion of this article, I won't talk about it for the time being, I'll take care of myself first.

General Li, after our soldiers come back, will the poisoning be alleviated? ”

"Behind the yellow smoke, the poisoning has lessened somewhat, but the fatigue and dizziness are still severe. And most people still vomit, and some even vomit yellow bile water. If you can't find an antidote, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fight these days. ”

"General Li, rest assured, I have found out the source of this poison. He also asked General Li to immediately send a few troops and horses with low poison conditions to the surrounding area, look for a place with sulfur mines nearby, and then collect herbs around it. ”

Jia Xu said as he reached out and took out a pile of yellow powder from his sleeve, Li Xun looked at it, and then caught the yellow powder in his hand, it was sulfur.

Li Xuan's heart jumped, he didn't expect this sulfur to be so toxic when burned.

"General Li, please hurry up. If it's slow, I'm afraid that the champion will be one step ahead of us and burn these antidotes. However, I think there may be more than one place in this area that has this brimstone, and I asked General Lee to tell them to look for it carefully. If we want to break through Tongguan, this antidote must be indispensable! ”

"Good! I'll go down and order it right away!! ”

Li Xu's expression sank, but he also understood the truth, and after saluting Jia Xu very respectfully, he turned around and left. After Li Xuan left, Jia Xu rubbed his aching temples and began to think about the next step.

Half an hour later, several light cavalry teams rushed out from the Liangzhou Army Dazhai and rushed to the mountains near Tongguan to find a place with sulfur mines.

And sure enough, as Jia Xu expected, Wen Han really also sent a team of soldiers and horses to collect enough herbs, and was about to burn the remaining herbs, but he met one of the light cavalry teams sent by Li Xun, and after the two sides fought for a while, the soldiers and horses sent by Wen Han were carrying a lot of herbs, so they hurriedly set fire to the surrounding vegetation and fled.

The remaining light cavalry team quickly extinguished the fire, collected the remaining herbs, and then went back to Dazhai. Li Qi's other light cavalry teams also found sulfur mines in several different areas, and after collecting the herbs nearby, when they returned to Dazhai, it was already the morning of the next day.

Li Xuan was worried and almost didn't sleep all night, when he saw the men and horses he sent to collect the herbs, he waited for several hours to boil the medicinal soup, and after the soldiers drank the medicinal soup, the poisoning was greatly reduced. Li Xuncai put down his hanging heart and returned to his account to rest.

On the other side, at the bottom of Tongguan, nearly thousands of people were recovering arrows from the nearby area. The arrows were stuck in the earth, in corpses, or in nearby trees.

For the defenders of Tongguan at this time, the arrow was their life, because they all knew that there would be a more tragic offensive and defensive battle in the future. As the defenders, once they run out of arrows, then they are almost certain to lose.

On the Tongguan wall, Wen Han frowned. When he knew that one of the two people in the Liangzhou army, Li Ru or Jia Xu, must be in charge, he immediately woke up his spirit. These two men are not missing, and they should soon find out that he used sulfur, and then count a lot from there, and then find the antidote step by step. Therefore, Wen Han, just in case, had the herbs picked up and burned them immediately.

And from the mouth of the soldier who came back from collecting medicine last night to report it, as Wen Han guessed, the Liangzhou army was really looking for this antidote.

"Whether it's Li Ru or Jia Xu, such a terrifying push power is really panicking. It would be good if Zhicai was here, and with his intelligence, he might be able to compete with them. However, at this time, Dong Zhuo's situation in Luoyang was not optimistic, and after the righteous division and the Right Alliance took the Tiger Pass, Meng De could come to Luoyang City at any time. In this way, Li Ru should not leave Dong Zhuo's side. In other words, there is an eighty percent chance that this person is the poisoner Jia Xu, Jia Wenhe! ”

Thinking that this person was likely to be Jia Xu, Wen Han couldn't help but beat wildly in his heart, when he was a Yanshi, he had already tasted Jia Xu's power. Once Jia Xu comes up with a plan, he will force people into a dead situation, and it will be difficult to turn the tables. And now, Wen Han has far fewer hole cards in his hand than when he was in Yanshi, and he has to face Jia Xu, a terrifying opponent.

The more Wen Han thought about it, the more panicked he became, and his mind seemed to be blocked, and he had a feeling of being overwhelmed.

And at this moment, two powerful palms grabbed Wen Han's left and right shoulders almost at the same time, Wen Han was shocked in his heart, looked back, and saw the faces of Guan Yu and Xu Huang.

Guan Yu's face was firm, Xu Huang had a relaxed smile, neither of them spoke, but from their palms they had already signaled to Wen Han what they wanted to say.

"Second brother... Fourth brother..."

Wen Han exhaled a deep breath, as if he was about to vomit out all the panic in his heart, and then raised his hands and grabbed them tightly on the big hands that Guan Yu and Xu Huang grabbed on his shoulders.

Time is passing minute by minute, and the dark night of Senran is still coming as always.

Dazhai at the foot of the mountain, Jia Xu's account.

"Wenhe, now we have less than two days left, and now we are already burning our brows, how to break through this Tongguan, please teach me Wenhe!"
