Chapter 15: Burning Sun Jian

Hua Xiong was defeated, after fighting Huang Gai and other three generals, Sun Jian shot, Hua Xiong originally thought that he could resist Sun Jian for at least 100 rounds, but he didn't expect to be defeated in only 30 rounds, and Hua Xiong was convinced. Thinking of Hu Zhen's plan, Hua Xiong knew that it was time to retreat, but Hu Zhen wanted Hua Xiong to be defeated, and now Hua Xiong is really defeated, that's all. The 3,000 Northwest Army followed Hua Xiong and fled, I don't know if Hua Xiong did it on purpose, or the Northwest Army was really frightened by Sun Jian's martial bravery, and the 3,000 people crowded at the city gate in an orderly manner, trampling on each other. Sun Jian, who was close to the city, and Lou Gui under the banner both saw it clearly, and at the same time they were overjoyed, Lou Gui hurriedly ordered the drummers to attack with drums under the banner, and Sun Jian took the lead, heading straight for the chaotic Dong army, hoping that before the city gate could be closed, he could rush into the city, if so, Sun Jian could unexpectedly take down Zhongmu City.

The deafening war drums sounded, and more than 20,000 Sun Jian's army hurriedly attacked under the leadership of Cheng Pu and other three generals after the pacification. Huang Gai took a look, and then suddenly found that Sun Jian was about to rush to the city gate, and at this time he was swinging a knife to kill Dong Jun who was chaotic and crowded at the city gate. Huang Gai hurriedly shouted three times, and led a thousand men and horses from his headquarters to protect Sun Jian, while Cheng Puzumao and the two of them waved their troops to attack the city, and the other quickly gathered a large army to the city gate, hoping to rush into the city before the city gate was closed. Lou Gui looked at the Zhongmu City Gate from afar, and saw Sun Jian rampage, very heroic, Lou Gui couldn't help frowning, and made up his mind to wait for the end of this battle, he must talk about Sun Jian, as the commander of the three armies, how could he put himself in danger. However, at this time, Lou Gui also hoped that Sun Jian could rush up and capture the city gate, but Lou Gui felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this Moucheng, there seemed to be something unusual, what was it.

At this time, Zu Mao commanded more than 10,000 soldiers to attack a city wall at the same time, and the dense soldiers rushed over with simple ladders, and there was just silence on the Zhongmu city wall, but Zu Mao didn't think much about it, thinking that the defenders of Zhongmu City were like before, and waited until Sun Jian's army almost climbed before they came up. But this time the siege of the city, until the first sergeant Sun Jian attacked the city, there was no defender, and there was not even a defender on the wall. How could an ordinary sergeant think so much about it, and when these sergeants climbed the wall and found that there was no resistance from the defenders, they liked it even more, and hurriedly helped the soldiers under the city to climb the wall. When a certain number of soldiers and horses were gathered, they rushed down the city wall in formation and opened the city gate for the army, but the current city gate was not closed, but thousands of Dong troops were fighting with Sun Jian and Huang Gai, and there was no way to close the city gate for a while. As the Changsha army on the city wall rushed down the city wall and attacked the Dong army from the inside, the Dong army of about 3,000 was regarded as being attacked before and after, and the fighting spirit was low and there was no fighting spirit.

Sun Jian, who rushed into the city gate in one fell swoop, saw his own sergeant rushing out from inside to flank the enemy with him, and couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Where did you and the others come from?" The sergeant replied, "My lord, I came up from the city wall under the command of General Zu." Sun Jian was even more shocked, how could he come up from the city wall so quickly, but Sun Jian estimated that this little soldier couldn't ask anything, so he hurriedly turned around and said to his cronies: "Quickly report the matter here to the military advisor." Then he shouted at Huang Gai: "Cover the public, leave the sergeants to guard the city gates, and the rest of the soldiers and so-and-so rush into the city." After saying that, he took the lead again, Sun Jian's courage infinitely inspired the soldiers under his command, and in an instant, the Dong army at the Mu City Gate was emptied.

Sun Jian led his soldiers and horses to the center of the city to kill, and the strange thing was that all the way down he saw obstacles piled up by Dong Jun from time to time to block Sun Jian's advance, but he did not encounter many Dong Jun blocks. After running a street, Sun Jian also felt that something was wrong, it couldn't be that there was no enemy army, it couldn't be that Hu Zhen abandoned the city and ran from the west gate, it couldn't be so fast. Sun Jian raised his hand and shouted loudly, "Stop." The thousands of troops following Sun Jian came to a halt.

Outside Zhongmu City, under the banner, Lou Gui was stunned to see that Zu Mao easily attacked the city wall, and the battle of the city gate was also wiped out in an instant with Zu Mao's attack. In a blink of an eye, seeing Sun Jian take the lead in rushing into the city, Lou Gui was in a hurry, and the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became even stronger, and suddenly he saw the sergeant sent back by Sun Jian said that there seemed to be no resistance in the city, and Sun Jian had already rushed into the city with a large army and went straight to the county government. Lou Gui was shocked, shouted in the plan, and hurriedly ordered loudly: "Quickly recover the lord, there is an ambush in the city, and order General Cheng to divide his troops on the north and south sides, and the enemy attack on the north and south sides of the city is ordered, and General Huang is ordered to quickly rescue the lord and hold the city gate." Lou Gui's reaction was not unpleasant, but as soon as Lou Gui finished shouting, he saw a fire in the center of the city, and Lou Gui was so frightened that he fell down from the stage, and the guards hurriedly checked. I saw blood coming out of the corners of Lou Gui's mouth, and shouted: "It's okay, it's okay, hurry, save the lord, General Cheng must resist the enemy troops on both sides, don't let the enemy block the city gate and cut off the lord's retreat, hurry, go quickly." The guard was stunned, where is there an enemy army outside the city, why should General Cheng resist it. As soon as the guards finished thinking about it, they saw both sides of the east gate of Zhongmu City, and suddenly rushed out from the south and north of the city at some point: "Kill." Nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses closed towards the east gate, and when he saw that half of the Changsha army was about to be blocked in the city, and seeing the fire in the city, the guard was also shocked, and hurriedly ran out to report to Cheng Pu.

Sun Jian was shocked, and several streets in the east of the city suddenly burst into flames for some reason, and four or five thousand people rushed left and right, and all that came to them was a heat wave. Sun Jian shouted: "Don't panic, retreat towards the city gate." Sun Jian was caught in the fire, I don't know how big the fire burned and what happened outside the city, but Sun Jian knew that only when he got out of the city gate and on the empty plain could Sun Jian deal with it, even if it was a real battle with several times the enemy, it was better than being at a loss in the fire. Now only the east gate of the city seems to be under his control, I believe that Huang Gai will not let himself down, and he will definitely hold the only way out for Sun Jian, as well as Zu Mao and Cheng Pu, they have never disappointed Sun Jian.

Cheng Pu is also very anxious now, and for some reason the city suddenly burned, and it is said that he has taken the initiative to rush in. Just as Cheng Pu was about to lead his troops to rush in to rescue the lord, Lou Gui's order came, asking Cheng Pu to stick to the two rules. Cheng Pu still admires this military advisor in Sun Jian's army, if it weren't for Lou Gui, he was afraid that the current Sun Jian would be at most a general under Yuan Shu and become a vassal of Yuan Shu. Although I don't understand why Lou Gui gave such an order, Cheng Pu still had no doubt and immediately executed it, dividing the 10,000 army into two parts and listing them in two directions. But the sudden appearance in front of him shocked Cheng Pu, because countless Dong Jun suddenly appeared from both sides, as many as 30,000. Cheng Pu couldn't figure it out, it was reported that Hu Zhen didn't have more than 30,000 or 40,000 troops in the three counties of Xingyang, didn't he go out from the north gate for 10,000 before, and ambushed 3,000 people and horses from his own army, why are there so many troops here.

Cheng Pu couldn't figure it out, but Lou Gui understood it after seeing the appearance of the enemy's banner, and the huge banner with Hu characters fluttered in the wind. Hu Zhen appeared, Lou Gui knew that it was designed by Hu Zhen from beginning to end, from the beginning of the soldiers and horses who went out of the north and south gates, and finally swallowed the 3,000 army of Sun Jian's North Road, and deceived Han Dang to lead the 5,000 army, and then Huaxiong's 3,000 army blocked the city gate, making Sun Jian think that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, and everything was just to paralyze Sun Jian's army. With the fire in the city and the appearance of Dong Jun on both sides, Lou Gui knew that he had suffered a big loss today, and Sun Jian was still more than lucky. There are only 3,000 men and horses under the banner of Lou Gui, and he hurriedly ordered people to chase back Han Dang, don't care about the 3,000 remnants, come back to the savior quickly, and hope that Cheng Pu can resist the enemy's attack, at least let Sun Jian run out first.

On the city wall, Zu Mao and Huang Gai, who was about to rush into the city to rescue Sun Jian, were startled, Zu Mao hurriedly commanded the soldiers except the archers to go down to the city gate to help Cheng Pu, Zu Mao knew what it would mean if the city gate was blocked by Dong Jun from the outside at this time. When I ran to the city gate, I saw Huang Gai, Zu Mao: "Gong Fu, quickly enter the city, answer the lord, and a certain righteous chief to guard the city gate, fast, the enemy army is twice as large as our army, I am afraid that it will not last long, and quickly rescue the lord." Without waiting for Huang Gai to respond, he rushed out of the city and lined up behind Cheng Pu's army, acting as a second line of defense.

The moment the fire rose, Hu Zhen smiled, Sun Jian, the first person to ask for Dong? Haha, Hu Zhen is the first person to fight, as long as Sun Jian is defeated, Hu Zhen believes that the so-called Dong Alliance will not dare to attack easily. Suddenly, the report said that Hua Xiong had been defeated and had retreated into the city. Hu Zhen knew that the time was right, and the firelight was the signal, and the army that was ambushed at the north and south gates of the city quickly drove out, and went back to the east gate, and was sure to block Sun Jian's army to the death, and at least half of the thieves in the field were burned to death. Hu Zhen smiled, Sun Jian and the others must not have imagined that in the month when they were singing and dancing, Hu Zhen had successfully persuaded Dong Zhuo that he had secretly increased troops to Xingyang, and even the general Xu Rong came, and Hua Xiong, the first martial artist in the northwest, also came. Thinking of Xu Rong, Hu Zhen smiled even more happily, Dong Zhuo hated Cao * to death, but he was afraid that he had been dead for a long time at this time.

It turned out that as soon as Sun Jian and Chen Lin left the Allied camp, Hu Zhen knew about it, and immediately set up a strategy to contain Chen Lin, ambush Cao *, and burn Sun Jian, so that Xu Rong, who was also deeply used by Dong Zhuo, admired and volunteered to act for Hu Zhen's plan, and led his troops to ambush Cao *. Cao*, the person who made Dong Zhuo hate the most, because Cao* almost succeeded in assassinating Dong Zhuo.

Hu Zhen looked at Sun Jian's army in a panic in the east of the city, and Hu Zhen knew that even if Sun Jian did not die, after this battle, there would be no more Sun Jian among the Dong Dong.
