Northeast of the barracks, the Jizhou Army is stationed.

After nightfall, oil lamps were lit in Wang Lei's tent, and the breeze blew and the lights swayed. Wang Lei and Cao Cao sat opposite each other, Wang Lei poured Cao Cao a full cup of tea, and asked, "Brother Meng De, did Sun Jian send someone back to urge food?" ”

Cao Cao replied, "Yesterday at noon, Sun Jian's envoy came back and asked for food and grass supplies. Yuan Shu took the initiative to take over the matter and gave a batch of new grain...... What's the matter, is Brother Xian worried that Yuan Shu will cut off food supplies? ”

Wang Lei looked serious and said, "Brother Meng De and Yuan Shu were playmates when they were teenagers, don't you know Yuan Shu?" Sun Jian has made great contributions in the front, with Yuan Shu's character, he can see that others can't show their faces to make meritorious contributions, if someone picks up Yuan Shu at this time, I'm afraid Yuan Shu can really do something like that. ”

Wang Lei remembered that in the romance, one of the reasons for Sun Jian's defeat and retreat was the lack of food, and the real reason is unknown.

Therefore, Wang Lei asked.

Cao Cao pondered for a moment and nodded in acknowledgement. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are both from famous families and have a good upbringing, and Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are both intellectually talented, but they have the same shortcomings, they are narrow-minded, and they can't see others better than him. Such an open-mindedness is not the character of a great thing, and Yuan Shu is even more arrogant, and his character has great flaws.

Cao Cao returned to the topic of crusading against Dong Zhuo and asked, "Brother Wang Xian, what do you think about the crusade against Dong Zhuo?" ”

Wang Lei thought for a while and said: "Sun Taishou is like a bamboo all the way, and he will soon defeat Huaxiong and win the Tiger Prison Pass." When the time comes, the army will invade Luoyang and defeat Dong Zhuo in one fell swoop, and the Han family will definitely be prosperous. ”

Cao Cao seemed to be smiling, and said in a stiff tone: "Brother Xian, this is the truth? ”

Wang Lei said loudly: "Of course it is! ”

Cao Cao shook his head lightly and said, "At the beginning, when I sent a letter to crusade against Dong Zhuo, I was full of hope and decided that I could win. But after the alliance, especially when arguing about the alliance leader, I saw the ambitions of the princes, including Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Han Fu...... One by one, they all want to be the leader of the alliance. Speaking of this, Cao Cao's eyes looked at Wang Lei, his eyes flashed, and he said: "Including Brother Wang Xian, he is also an ambitious person. ”

Wang Lei smiled and nodded slightly.

Cao Cao continued: "Ambition is not a bad thing, such a mind can motivate people to keep fighting. But selfishness is greater than ambition, and that's terrible. For example, when the news of Hua Xiong's arrival at the Tiger Prison Pass came, the officials who asked for war did not speak, and Sun Jian was the only one who asked to fight against Hua Xiong. The army is full of officials who only want to compete for fame and fortune, and they don't have the heart to destroy Dong Zhuo, how sad is this! ”

Wang Lei still didn't speak, listening quietly.

Being able to listen to Cao Cao is an opportunity to get to know Cao Cao.

Cao Cao took a deep breath and said, "When the news of Sun Jian's killing of Hu Zhen and Zhao Cen came back, a person became jealous and regretted that he did not go to the battlefield. Alas...... A group of fools, this big deal against Dong is difficult! ”

Wang Lei recognized Cao Cao's analysis and comforted: "It's man-made!" After a pause, Wang Lei asked, "Since Brother Meng De knows that the situation is not good, why do you still insist?" ”

Cao Cao stared at him and said: "Serve the country, regardless of success or failure, life and death, but ask for a clear conscience." ”

In a word, Wang Lei was in awe.

Maybe Cao Cao will become a traitor in history after experiencing many things. But the current Cao Cao is a person who is dedicated to working hard for the prosperity of the Han family.

Such a person deserves respect.

Cao Cao suddenly said: "Brother Wang Xian, no matter what happens to the rest of the princes? I hope that Wang Xiandi can do his best to exterminate Dong Zhuo and work hard for the Zhongxing Han Dynasty. ”

Wang Lei couldn't bear to refuse Cao Cao, nodded and said, "There must be two world vendors!" ”

……

Outside the Tiger Prison Pass, Sun Jian's military camp.

At this time, it was already night, the soldiers had rested, and Sun Jian was still reading in the camp tent.

"Goo! Mutter!! ”

Suddenly, Sun Jian's stomach was churning. His face was ugly, and he quickly put down the bamboo slips in his hand, got out of the camp tent, and went to the temporary toilet in the camp. After a long toss, he returned to his tent. On the way back, Sun Jian saw many soldiers running to the toilet with their stomachs clutched, which made Sun Jian feel strange.

It's just that he eats a bad stomach, why are there so many people?

"Goo! Mutter!!! ”

Halfway through, Sun Jian's stomach began to make trouble again.

His face changed drastically, and he had to return to the toilet again, and when Sun Jian solved his personal problems, he was already pale and had a thick exhaustion in his eyes. He ran back and forth to the toilet five times in total, and he was already exhausted. He sat casually in the tent, and no longer had the heart to read. At this time, the soldier reported that Cheng Pu was coming.

Sun Jian hurriedly let Cheng Pu in, and when he saw Cheng Pu, Sun Jian's face was shocked, because Cheng Pu's face was even paler.

Behind Cheng Pu, the same was true for Huang Gai and Han Dang, only Zu Mao's expression was normal.

"You ...... You've got a bad stomach, too! ”

Sun Jian's face changed greatly, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.

Cheng Pu's expression was grim and solemn, and he said slowly: "My lord, not only us, but the vast majority of the soldiers in the battalion are like this, with diarrhea, vomiting and other conditions, and the situation is grim. After the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, he said that he had eaten a bad stomach. ”

Sun Jian's expression instantly became solemn.

"Report!!"

With a panicked voice, it came from outside the tent.

The soldier rushed in, knelt on one knee, and said, "Hua Xiong led the army to steal the camp, and the army is coming!" ”

"Fight!"

Sun Jian didn't think about it, and immediately stood up.

Bang!!

As soon as he stood up, Sun Jian's legs were weak, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks. At this time, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and others, who originally wanted to fight, also felt weak and couldn't lift their strength at all. In this situation, Sun Jian felt sad in his heart, with such a situation, let alone facing Huaxiong, it would be difficult even if he wanted to hold the barracks.

Sun Jian thought for a moment, looked at Cheng Pu, and asked: "Demou (Cheng Puzi), so many people have diarrhea and vomiting, and the military doctor diagnoses and treats them because they have eaten a bad stomach, what do you think is the reason?" ”

Cheng Pu replied: "There is a large-scale situation, it is likely to be a problem of food!" ”

"That's what I thought, too!"

Sun Jian's eyes flashed, and he ordered: "Bring some edible food and withdraw the troops immediately!" "There was an abnormality in the army, and it was impossible for Sun Jian to lead his troops to meet the attack, so he could only retreat.

The order was issued, the soldiers went to deliver the order, and Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others immediately prepared.

The army began to retreat, but Hua Xiong pursued him to the death.

Hua Xiong led the army to pursue Sun Jian's army, at first, Hua Xiong felt strange, thinking that the brave and invincible Sun Jian retreated, there must be something in it, so he just hung behind, not daring to chase with all his strength, afraid of the scheme. Ke Huaxiong captured some of Sun Jian's soldiers, found that these soldiers were weak, and after finding out the true situation, he began to chase after him, killing Sun Jian and defeating him.
