At the head of Shouchun City, Sun Jian's ministers were all angry, and they impulsively wanted to go to war to avenge Han Dang.

Zhang Zhao on the side, but his brows were deep, calmer than many people, and he was sad and angry, but he was worried.

"The lord is angry, and the mink male threw the head on the head of Shouchun City, just to provoke the lord and induce the lord to send troops out of anger, and the lord must not fall for him." Zhang Zhao persuaded hard.

Sun Jian is a famous general in the end, and the death of his nephew Sun Ben has not made him mess up, let alone Han Dang.

Staring at the mighty mink army outside the city, Sun Jian knew very well that with his own 10,000 soldiers and horses, he would go out of the city to fight against the opponent's army of 30,000 or 40,000 with thousands of iron horses, and there was absolutely no possibility of victory.

If you go out of the city to fight, you can only kill yourself.

Bang!

Sun Jian's fist slammed into the female wall, gritted his teeth and said: "Isn't it true that the revenge of the righteous prince will not be avenged, my grandly Sun Jian, will I just shrink in this Shouchun City and let that kid show off his might?" ”

Zhang Zhao's eyes rolled, but he arched his hand and said: "Lord, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and the lord doesn't have to mind." For the sake of today's plan, the enemy is strong and we are weak, and it is impossible to defeat Diao Xiong with our current strength, so we must find another help to help. ”

Help?

"Do you want me to recall Bo Fu from Jiangdong?" Sun Jian doubted.

"The eldest prince is sweeping Jiangdong, if he leads the army back to help at this time, it will be a failure." Zhang Zhao shook his head, but pointed to the north, "What Zhao means is that the lord will send someone to Xuzhou as soon as a letter, ask Tao Qian for help, and ask him to send troops, and then the north and south will be attacked, so that the mink thieves can be broken." ”

Asking Tao Qian for help?

Including Sun Jian, everyone's eyes lit up, and they seemed to see a glimmer of hope.

Huang Gai said: "That Tao Qian was recently defeated by Cao Cao, if it weren't for Cao Cao's retreat, he might not be able to protect himself now, how could he come to rescue us?" ”

"He will." Zhang Zhao smiled confidently: "That Diao Xiong has formed an alliance with Cao Cao, if I Huainan falls, Tao Qian will face the threat of being attacked by Cao Mink and the north and south, and he will definitely die at that time, Tao Qian should know the truth of this cold lips and teeth, so he will definitely send troops to rescue." ”

A few words made Sun Jian and the others suddenly enlightened.

Sun Jian slammed his fist against the female wall, his brows deep and hesitant.

The dignified Sun Jian was killed by an unknown junior and was defeated repeatedly, and finally fell to the point of asking for help from his neighbors, and spread his prestige.

Sun Jian was worried about his face.

Zhang Zhao keenly saw through this, so he persuaded: "The lord god Wu Xiong is strategic, he knows the truth that the big husband can bend and stretch, although today's request for help will damage his prestige, but compared to his day to destroy the mink male, take revenge, and achieve a great cause, this small loss on the face, what is it, please think twice." ”

Sun Jian's body was suddenly shocked, as if he was caught by Zhang Zhao.

After a moment of silence, Sun Jian took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Zibu's words are reasonable, you can quickly repair a book for me, send someone to Xuzhou, explain the benefits and disadvantages to Tao Qian, and ask him to send troops to help." ”

……

Outside the enemy city, Mink Xiong stationed his horse and crossed the axe, waiting for Sun Jian to send troops out of anger.

In fact, he threw Han Dang's head into Shouchun, not only to deter the enemy, but also to provoke Sun Jian and force him to fight.

If Sun Jian sent troops in anger, he would fall into the arms of Mink Xiong, and he could lead this victorious army, calm Sun Jian with a lot of anger, and take Shouchun without much effort.

Guanzhong has sent back news that Dong Zhuo has surrendered Ma Teng, and the rebels in Longxi have fallen apart, leaving only Han Sui who is still resisting, and I believe that Dong Zhuo will be cleaned up.

When Dong Zhuo vacates his hand, with his suspicion of himself, he will not tolerate his own strength, and it is imperative to turn his face against Dong at that time.

Therefore, Diao Xiong must hurry up and take down the fat of Huainan, only in this way can he have the strength to resist Dong Zhuo and block Dong Zhuo's terrifying Xiliang Iron Cavalry army.

In his thoughts, he lined up for a long time, but he didn't see any movement in Shouchun.

"General, it seems that Sun Jian is not going to fight." The clerk next to him reminded.

Diao Xiong snorted and said with emotion: "It seems that Sun Nugran is worthy of a generation of famous generals, to this point, he can still keep calm, the battle of Shouchun is destined to be a vicious battle." ”

Sun Jian did not go to war, and Diao Xiong did not bother to waste his spirit any longer, and after the army showed off its might, he ordered the troops to be withdrawn.

On the same day, Diao Xiong went to the northwest of Shouchun and put on a posture of preparing for a protracted war.

The camp has been completed, and in the next few days, the follow-up army and grain and grass have arrived at the front line one after another, and the soldiers and horses on the front line of Shouchun have reached more than 30,000 people.

Shouchun is far away from the base camp of Nanyang, and the transportation of grain and grass is unfavorable.

After besieging the city for a long time, Diao Xiong divided his troops and horses and went to capture the counties near Shouchun, on the one hand, to isolate Shouchun, and on the other hand, to collect grain nearby.

It's the day.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Mink Xiong is planning with the generals to break the city.

The scout rushed in and shouted: "General Yu, General Gong Du was ordered to capture the northern counties, but was defeated by the local powerful Xu Chu in Shen County, please send reinforcements." ”

Xu Chu!

A thunderous name sounded in Minkxiong's ears, and many memories of this name immediately appeared in his mind.

Tiger Idiot, Martial Arts Chao, Weishui vs. Ma Chao, and Zhang Feidou are indistinguishable from each other......

In history, Cao Cao's most trusted commander of the guards, Wudao and Dian Wei were called the first strong man in Cao Ying, but he didn't expect that he would appear near Huairu.

"Mr. Yuan Zhi, do you know the truth of this Xu Chu?" Diao Xiong's gaze turned to Xu Shu, who was dozing.

Xu Shu's head was a little sharper, Fang was a little sober, and he was dazed for a moment, Fang said: "This Xu Chu, I know, he was originally a strong man in Qian County, and after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he led the clan to move south to the area of Shen County, with his superb martial arts, and eight hundred Xu Men under his command, defeated several groups of Runan Yellow Turbans in a row, and shocked Huai Ru, no one dared to provoke, Gong Duwei probably bumped into this difficult lord. ”

"Yuan Zhi understands this Xu Chu so clearly, it seems that there is nothing in the world that you don't know, you are really a know-it-all." Mink Xiong praised.

"Where, where, the general smiled, I just like to ask around in peace." Xu Shu laughed and laughed at himself.

At this time, Xu Rong stood up angrily and said angrily: "Our army swept Huairu, this Xu Chu dared to oppose us, general, I will lead an army to kill Shen County and behead Xu Chu to the general." ”

Xu Rong is a general in the world, and he has long been famous, although Xu Chu is powerful, but in the end he is just a strong place, and his reputation is far inferior to Xu Rong, of course Xu Rong has a reason for self-confidence.

Diao Xiong knew that with martial arts alone, Xu Rong was by no means Xu Chu's opponent, and Xu Chu's subordinates still had 800 Xu Men dead.

Mink Xiong remembered that in history, Cao Cao's personal guards were based on these 800 dead soldiers to save Cao Cao from danger several times and keep him from dying.

Besides, if a loyal and brave man like Xu Chu can surrender and use it for me, it will be a great blessing.

The corners of Mink's mouth couldn't help licking his lips, and a look of "greed" flashed across his face.

For him, who has a serious shortage of talents, how can a tiger and wolf like Xu Chu not let him "have a big appetite".

Thinking of this, Diao Xiong immediately said: "Zhengfang commands the camp to defend the city, Zifeng and Zhongyao, two people, command 3,000 troops, and go with the general to meet Xu Chu for a while." ”

"General, that Xu Chu is just a local hero, the general needs to attach so much importance to him, and he still wants to personally lead the army to conquer?" Xu Rong was surprised.

"You don't understand, this Xu Chu is not as simple as you say, this time, Ben will have to go in person." Mink's words are meaningful.

Xu Rong still didn't understand why Diao Xiong attached so much importance to this Xu Chu, but the order had been given, but how could he dare to have any doubts, even if he retired to count the soldiers and horses.

"And you, Mr. Yuanzhi, come with me."

"Huh?" Xu Shu, who was dozing off again, was suddenly scared away, and looked at Diao Xiong with a bitter face, looking lazy and unwilling.

……

A day later, Mink Xiong led 3,000 elite soldiers to the north and entered the territory of Shen County, and the defeated Gong Du rushed to meet and led Mink Xiong to the front of Naxujiabao.

Looking up and sweeping the terrain of Xujiabao, Diao Xiong knew that he had come to the right place, and if he let Xu Rong come, he would have to be defeated.

I saw that this Xujiabao was backed by a wall that stood on the cutting wall, and the whole fortress was built with mountain stones, which was far stronger than the city wall built by ordinary earth and stone, and such a fortress with steep terrain, even if there were 100,000 troops, it might not be able to attack it.

Look at the wall again, the banner is clear, the soldiers are numerous, and the eight hundred dead soldiers are solemnly arrayed, and the murderous spirit is monstrous.

With this formation alone, it is known that Xu Chu is a good soldier.

After watching the terrain for a long time, Diao Xiong was not in a hurry to attack, but drove his troops to approach the main gate of the enemy fort, reined in front of his horse, and said loudly: "Han rebel general Diao Xiong is here, where is Xu Chu, dare to come out for a while." ”

"Diao Xiong, if you want to attack, you will attack, less nonsense." On the wall, there was a rough voice of arrogance and disdain.
