142 Koto Tiger III
"This Yang Ding is really ruthless! I can't imagine that a mere unknown person is so difficult to deal with, in the Xiliang army, there are really fierce generals. Dong Zhuo's subordinates are full of talents! No wonder it can ......"
Looking at the banner of the word "Yang" on the city gate, Sun Jian couldn't help but sigh. In the end, he still put the sentence "No wonder you can control the government, abolish the Son of Heaven, move the capital to Chang'an, hold the power, the government is your own, and you can take life and death." The words were swallowed into his stomach, and no one knew what Sun Jian was thinking in his heart.
It turned out that Yang Ding's impact on Sun Jian's formation failed, but was defeated by Sun Jian's killing, Yang Ding's decision was extremely fast, and he actually gave the order first, first led his men and horses, and attacked Sun Jian's own formation, Sun Jian only thought that Yang Ding was in a hurry, and he didn't want Yang Ding to attack once, so he turned around and ran. When Sun Jian hurriedly pursued, Yang Ding abandoned another thousand men and horses, and then led the rest of the team and fled back to Taigu Pass.
This thousand palace descendants, everyone fought hard, blocking Sun Jian for half a moment, Yang Ding took this opportunity to escape, it can be seen that Yang Ding managed the army in a good way on weekdays, and the last remaining hundreds of people couldn't hold on and surrendered one after another.
This time, although Yang Ding lost half of his men, after all, half of his men and horses fled back, and although Sun Jian won a big victory, he failed to wipe out the defenders of Taigu Pass. Yang Ding also miscalculated, and his men and horses were defeated and lost, which not only failed to boost morale, but made the morale of the Taigu Pass defenders even lower.
Although Sun Jian won a victory, he failed to kill the defenders of Taigu Pass in one fell swoop, and he was furious in his heart, and said angrily: "Kill all these Dong thieves and henchmen, and behead me to show the public." ”
"Slave, how dare you do this?" The defenders of the city, seeing Sun Jian beheading all the hundreds of surrendered soldiers and hanging them on poles to show the public, Dong Zhuo's sergeant who was closed saw it, couldn't help but change, and Yang Ding couldn't help but scold. The so-called "slave" was a common phrase used by northerners to scold southerners at that time, and it also carried some regional discrimination, and "slave" was even better.
After knowing that he had been tricked, Yang Ding had to order Pegasus to go to Luoyang to report the news. Taigu Pass is only fifty miles away from Luoyang, and it is only half an hour before it arrives, Dong Zhuo received the information and couldn't help but change his color.
Knowing that Sun Jian was approaching Taigu Pass, Dong Zhuo hurriedly took a few henchmen and staff to the map sand table to carefully study the countermeasures.
Dong Zhuo was born from a good family, and he went all the way to the position of a former general, and he fought more than 100 battles with Qianghu with one knife and one gun. Experienced in a hundred battles, for others, it is an adjective, and for Dong Zhuo, he is really experienced in a hundred battles. Therefore, just by looking at the map and counting them, Dong Zhuo had a countermeasure in his heart.
Taigu Pass is in the east of Yuyuan Pass, in the west of Yique Pass, to rescue Taigu Pass, it is necessary to transfer troops from Luoyang, Yuyuan Pass, and Yique Pass.
"The soldiers of Yuyuan Pass must not move."
Dong Zhuo first denied the plan to mobilize the defenders of Yuyuan Pass.
If the soldiers and horses in the pass dare to divide their troops to rescue Taigu Pass, in case Sun Jian's soldiers and horses left in Yingchuan take advantage of the situation and take the opportunity to capture the Yuanguan, the consequences will be unimaginable. If the Yuyuan Pass is broken by Sun Jian, even if it holds the Taigu Pass, it is useless, and Sun Jian's army can also enter Luoyang from the Yuyuan Pass. Moreover, if the Yuyuan Pass is broken, Sun Jian and Liu Bei can also send troops to detour from the Yuyuan Pass to the back of the Taigu Pass, and when the time comes, even the Taigu Pass will not be able to be saved.
If it was to transfer troops from Luoyang to rescue Taigu Pass, Dong Zhuo shook his head, raised his head, and looked in the direction of Hanoi, where Yuan Shao was still in charge, looking at Luoyang. Although Yuan Shao was plotting against Jizhou in his heart, he only sent 5,000 men and horses to make a show, but the problem was that Dong Zhuo didn't know. What if Dong Zhuo transferred Luoyang's soldiers and horses away, and Yuan Shao called. Similarly, there are also soldiers and horses who monitor Yuan Shu in the direction of Nanyang, and they cannot be mobilized.
In this way, Hu Zhen of Yique Pass can only be mobilized to send troops to rescue Taigu Pass, but Hu Zhen does not have many soldiers and horses, so he has to send people to help.
"Feng Xian," thinking of this, Dong Zhuo said to Lu Bu, "You go to help Hu Dong County and rescue Taigu Pass. ”
Lu Bu said: "The soldiers are fast. Since Sun Jian has raised troops to Taigu Pass, our army must not delay, although Bu is not talented, he is willing to raise the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, rush to Taigu, behead Sun Jian's head, and dedicate it to Xiangguo. ”
Dong Zhuo heard this: "What Feng Xian said is reasonable, since this is the case, Feng Xian will lead the cavalry of his headquarters first and rush to Taigu Pass to rescue, and when Hu Zhen arrives, he will still take Hu Zhen as the main thing." ”
Lu Bu took the order and went.
Hu Zhen is a Liangzhou adult, in Dong Zhuo's army has a very high prestige, Dong Zhuo since entering Beijing, out of political considerations, his cronies and subordinates, do not give Yu a prominent position, but is a lieutenant general, school captain, only Hu Zhen, was appointed as the Taishou of Dongjun, although only a remote leader, did not actually arrive, can also see Hu Zhen's special status in the Western Liang Army.
Therefore, Dong Zhuo used Hu Zhen as the main general and Lu Bu as the deputy general.
It's just that Lu Bu is arrogant and arrogant, and he doesn't take Hu Zhen in his eyes, nor does he want to obey Hu Zhen's command, so he wants to set off first, as long as he defeats Sun Jian first, he naturally doesn't need to listen to Hu Zhen's command.
At this time, Sun Jian's brigade had arrived, and after Sun Jian defeated the Taigu defenders, Sun Jian's generals were highly motivated.
Sun Jian is also a famous general in the world, and naturally knows the truth of "attacking the city for the bottom", so he divided several people to the east and west of Taigu Pass, key strongholds, and wanted to put pressure on the defenders of Taigu Pass.
If you can't, it doesn't matter, just take the opportunity to delay for a few days, wait for Liu Bei, wait for Liu Bei to come, everyone will send troops to attack the city together, the siege casualties are huge, and Sun Jian's family can't bear it all.
Since ancient times, the coalition forces have been such a thing, pit the opponent and pit the teammates, and the coalition that will not pit the teammates is not a qualified coalition army.
After such a slight delay, Lu Bu had already arrived with his troops. In order to rush to Taigu Pass as soon as possible, Lu Bu only brought 3,000 Bingzhou cavalry from his headquarters, and Hu Zhen also led 5,000 men and horses to rush over. After all, Lu Bu has few soldiers, and he learned that Sun Jian's men and horses are close to 40,000, and he doesn't want to fight with Sun Jian, for fear of losing too many soldiers and horses, these horses are all Lu Bu's capital to gain a foothold under Dong Zhuo, and Lu Bu doesn't want to lose too much.
Therefore, Lu Bu only led his troops to camp outside Taigu Pass, and the defenders of Taigu Pass were fighting each other. Waiting for Hu Zhen to come, Dong Zhuo also let Hu Zhen be the main general anyway.
And Liu Bei also led the army to approach, and after hearing the news that Hu Zhen and Lu Bu were coming, Liu Bei made a decision after a little thought.
