In front of the towering Surabaya Pass, Sun Jian's army attacked the city several times, each time he saw that victory was in sight, but he had not yet gained a firm foothold in the city, and was soon driven down the city tower by the crazy Xiliang army with his life, and the corpses of the soldiers on both sides formed a mountain under the city.

The Xiliang army was defeated before, and was originally very afraid of Sun Jian's army, seeing that Sun Jian led the army to attack and kill, the morale plummeted for a while, and there were not a few people who wanted to surrender through the pass, but with Sun Jian's order, all the soldiers of the Xiliang army were not left, which completely aroused the bloody nature of the 'Northwest Wolf'.

When fighting with Sun Jianjun, even if he was seriously injured and unable to fight again, he would push the enemy and fall down the city together.

Those who die in battle, those who behead three people of Sun Jianjun, reward fine wine, those who are five people are rewarded with stew, those who behead ten people, and the women forcibly recruited by Guanzhong are selected at will, and the so-called verbal rewards for promotion and wealth are all false, and only these real things can stimulate the fighting spirit of the armor soldiers.

The same commander-in-chief Hu Zhen issued a strict order, anyone who dared to retreat, the soldiers fled, the army commander fled and beheaded the captain, and so on, and never tolerated it.

is not only the war knife that the officers behind him may cut at any time, but more importantly, these promoted officers are fighting to the death in order to repay the grace of their knowledge, and the few remnants of the soldiers in Bishui Pass are high-spirited for a while, and they actually drove the elite of Sun Jian's army off the city wall for a while.

Although the morale of the army under Sun Jian's personal supervision was high, it was defeated several times in a row, and under the heavy losses, the armor soldiers who were originally not afraid of death naturally had fear in their hearts.

On the battlefield, fear can spread, like disease, and every time the general has to personally urge the soldiers to climb the ladder, no longer fighting for the first place as before.

With the passage of time, Sun Jian's sharpness became more and more sluggish, and seeing that Bishui Pass was in danger, he just couldn't attack it, Sun Jian sighed gloomily and had to order the withdrawal of the army.

The fierce battle of Bishui Pass ended slightly, seeing Sun Jian's army slowly retreating, a group of soldiers of the Xiliang army who were still at the head of the city cried with joy, many people were tired and paralyzed on the ground, and even some soldiers fell asleep in the corpse and blood.

Lu Bu, who was covered in blood, looked into the distance at the head of the city, and the arm holding the sword trembled slightly, not fear, but felt that it was too hearty, and a battle not only killed many enemy soldiers, but also the strong murderous aura became more and more intense.

Lu Bu's prestige completely deterred the soldiers of the Xiliang Army who were desperately defending the city, and no one dared to underestimate Lu Bu because Lu Bu was the old department of the Bingzhou Army, and many soldiers worshipped the absolute strong on the battlefield, and firmly believed that as long as Lu Bu was there, the Bishui Pass would be unbreakable.

*****

In Sun Jian's barracks, countless dying wounded soldiers continued to wail bitterly, and the military medical officers could only do their best, and minor injuries could also be bandaged to stop bleeding, if they were seriously injured, most of them would die of excessive blood loss, even if they were lucky enough to stop the bleeding, seven or eight out of ten died of tetanus infection.

"What! Yuan Shu deceived me too much! I only heard a loud shout from the military tent.

Sun Jian was furious in his heart, Yuan Shu promised to send the grain and grass within a day, until this time there was still no trace, originally Sun Jian's department did not have much grain and grass, can only last less than a day, now it is good, after a fierce battle, there is no food in the army, for a while, people's hearts are floating, and complaints are loaded.

In ancient times, except for the imperial guards, most of the soldiers were mixed to eat, even if the battlefield was dangerous, most of the elite still chose to join the army.

Natural disasters in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty**, food is scarce and difficult to find, only after joining the army, most of them can be fed, if they can make meritorious contributions and be promoted to officers, they can also glorify their ancestors.

However, there was no food in the army, which was a great blow to morale, and the mutiny of extremely hungry soldiers in history often occurred, and no one wanted to fight hungry, especially after a fierce battle, many soldiers were even more excited.

Soon, hungry deserters appeared, although the deserters led by a group of generals and colonels shocked the whole army, but they could only solve the temporary difficulty, and it was only a matter of time before Sun Jianjun dispersed.

Seeing that Hua Xiong led nearly 10,000 troops is about to arrive, once he enters Bishui Pass, if he attacks with the current strength, it is tantamount to asking for his own death, if Hua Xiong leads the troops to pursue, I am afraid that Sun Jian has no way to retreat.

If he leads the troops to evacuate, it will undoubtedly lose the face of the Kwantung Righteous Army, even if it is okay for a while, it will attract criticism, Sun Jian is brave and resolute, leading the army to rush forward and retreat? Sun Jian asked himself if he couldn't do it. Although he hated Yuan Shu so much, but at this time, the army's heart was unstable, let alone attacking and killing again, even if the whole army couldn't be done, Sun Jian looked around and said in a deep voice: "I, Sun Wentai and that Dong Zhuo have no grudges in the past life, and no enmity in the future life, go all out to attack and kill the court, and avenge the Yuan family, how can he Yuan Shu have the reason to deduct military rations." ”

"You wait to stay put, and I will immediately go to Yuan Shu to urge food!" Sun resolutely made up his mind, and he could set off when he was ready, but fortunately, there were not many remnants in the Bishui Pass, and if he rushed to kill at this time, the army would inevitably collapse.

The generals sighed helplessly, and looked at each other helplessly, although some people thought that Gongsun Yi, the hussar general stationed not far away, if he went to ask for help, he would naturally be able to solve his urgent need.

But with everyone's understanding of Sun Jian, they will never bow their heads to Gongsun Yi, especially when they hinted that Gongsun Yi must not come with him to snatch the merit of the pass, people live a breath, not to mention the arrogant heroic Sun Jian, not that he doesn't want to ask for food, but he really can't wipe his face.

"Report!" Suddenly, a soldier stepped into the military tent and hugged his fists and said: "There is a person outside who asks to see him, claiming to be the hussar general Gongsun Yi." ”

Everyone was stunned, no one knew why Gongsun Yi came at this time, they all looked at Sun Jian, Sun Jian stood in place and groaned for a moment, hesitated for a moment and sat back on the main seat and said, "Please come in!" All the generals sat down and waited for Gongsun Yi to arrive.

Gongsun Yi walked into the military tent with a guard armor soldier with a tiger's back and bowed slightly to Sun Jian and the generals.

"The hussar general came to visit late at night, I don't know what it is?" Sun Jian didn't have a good face, and asked aloud without humility or arrogance.

Sun Jian didn't even get up, although he respected Gongsun Yi before, but later thought that Gongsun Yi wanted to win the battle by force, and he also said that the reason was high-sounding, and he was too hypocritical, and his impression of Gongsun Yi took a 180-degree turn.

Now that Gongsun Yi came under Sun Jian's internal and external difficulties, it was polite not to reprimand.

"I don't know how many days General Sun's grain and grass can be enough?"

"Three days is enough, don't worry about the hussar general, if you have nothing to do, please return quickly!" Sun Jian was a little annoyed, and he suppressed his anger and replied in a deep voice.

"However, Ben General has gone all the way, and I saw that a group of sergeants complained, all saying that they were hungry, and I am afraid that General Sun has no military rations."

Gongsun Yi is also helpless, this Sun Jian really wants to save face, and he still puts on a posture that is unwilling to bow his head at this time.

But it's also a relief to think about it, the ancient times paid attention to morality, although Gongsun Yi said it was true before, but Sun Jian had already determined that Gongsun Yi was a hypocrite and didn't bother to deal with it at all.

Sun Jian couldn't bear it, overturned the desk and drew a knife, stared at Gongsun Yi with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Gongsun Yi, you deceive people too much, dare to come to my military camp to see jokes, but you think that General Ben's war knife is unfavorable!?" ”

The guards around Gongsun Yi suddenly stepped forward, drew their knives and stood in front of Gongsun Yi, and the crowd shouted to see the swords drawn and angry, and they all drew their swords and stood left and right, and the anger in the big tent was extremely dignified for a while.

"Hahaha!" Gongsun Yi suddenly raised his head and laughed, and then chuckled at the guard in front of him: "If General Sun wants to kill me, I'm afraid no one will be able to stop me, put away the weapon." ”

"No." The burly guard armorer remained silent, put away the war knife casually, and stood beside Gongsun Yi, with no expression change on his face, but if Sun Jian dared to approach, he would definitely be the first to rush forward.

"Wentai misunderstood, and he came to visit late at night to deliver military rations."

Seeing that everyone was stunned, Gongsun Yi continued: "My Gongsun Yi has a great enmity with Dong Zhuo, and he led the army to attack Dong but failed, causing nearly 10,000 soldiers to die in the fire, and he felt very guilty in his heart, and he still can't let go. ”

Gongsun Yi's tone was bright, and he looked around at everyone and continued: "This general is lurking beside Dong Zhuo, waiting for the opportunity to assassinate, but unfortunately the success is lost, and the assassination is not successful, and he escaped from the capital in a hurry, and issued a document calling on the heroes of the world to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and want to kill Dong Zhuo, in order to comfort the souls of the soldiers in the sky." ”

"It's a pity!" Gongsun Yi raised his head and sighed, then looked at Sun Jian and said: "The princes are deceitful, and they don't want to march into the army, if the Dong thief dog jumps over the wall and moves the capital and flees, I'm afraid the revenge will not be avenged, and today the commander of the army is 5,000 coming, just to wish Sun Jianjun a helping hand, the world can be learned, and he is selfless!" ”

Gongsun Yiyan was sincere, Sun Jian and others were all moved, half paid, Sun Jian stepped forward and bowed deeply: "I'm ashamed, but Sun Mou spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and I hope that there are a lot of hussar generals, don't be surprised!" ”

"Where does General Sun say, it all depends on General Sun to attack the city and pull out the village, and Dong Zhuo will not be able to sleep and eat in the city."

"The general of the defeated army is not brave enough, no matter how you rush and kill in front of the Bishui Pass today, you will still retreat." Sun Jian sighed slightly, and the Bishui Pass, which was about to be breached, was like an unbreakable barrier, blocking the strength of Sun Jian's army.

"If General Sun doesn't give up, can the army attack together tomorrow?" Although he knew that Sun Jian would not refuse, Gongsun Yi still asked very politely.

"The hussar general's orders should be obeyed, but he also asked for the law to solve the urgent need!" Sun Jian was obviously much closer to Gongsun Yi, especially thinking of the new defeat of the army, Gongsun Yi was able to have great perseverance to serve Dong in order to assassinate him, and he suddenly had a good impression under admiration.

Gongsun Yi nodded to the guards beside him, and the armor soldier bowed deeply, walked outside the military tent, picked up two torches, and stood in front of the barracks with a rhythmic sway.

Suddenly, there was a dense sound of footsteps around, and Sun Jian and the others walked in to take a look, only to see thousands of heavily armed armor soldiers, escorting the grain transport team towards this side quickly.

Sun Jian and the others secretly rejoiced, fortunately this is not the enemy, otherwise such a close surprise attack, there is no time to react, seeing that the cavalry led by Gongsun Yi is strictly disciplined, and the action is very fast, it must not be a weak brigade, Sun Jian and others are more and more impressed by the hussar general Gongsun Yi.
