Why not take advantage of the victory to pursue at this time, but "put the offensive on the go"?

Everyone here is a smart person, and they don't need to explain it, they all know what Wen Chou means.

Just like Guo Jia just said, although Hu Zhen and others are not in harmony, if Wen Chou and Sun Jian are too anxious, in order to protect themselves, they may temporarily put away the discord and unanimously with the outside world, so Wen Chou said "put the offensive aside", so that the external pressure is not so great, and the internal "discord" will probably be exposed.

Early the next morning, Wen Chou went to Sun Jian and told Sun Jian his idea, and Sun Jian agreed very much.

So, the two of them had their own subordinates and did not go out of the camp to challenge for two days in a row.

In the Dong barracks, Hu Zhen, Lu Bu, and Xu Rong did not see Wen Chou and Sun Jian fighting for two days in a row, and they heard the rumors that in the battle the day before yesterday, Wen and Sun had suffered heavy casualties, and Wen and Sun had sent people back to Yingchuan, and the troops left behind in Yingchuan were immediately sent to help.

Regardless of whether the rumors of Wen and Sun Diao's Yingchuan tribe coming to aid are true or not, according to common sense, after a big victory, Xun and Sun Ying will make persistent efforts, but the two of them are not out of the army now, so it seems that at least the saying that "Wen and Sun tribes suffered heavy casualties" should be true.

As Wen Chou and others expected, as soon as the external pressure was small, the internal contradictions of Hu Zhen, Lu Bu, and Xu Rong were exposed.

It was only three days since Wen and Sun were still on the first day, and on the evening of the third day, there was news that was detected by the scouts.

However, it was: Lu Bu was arrogant, Hu Zhen insulted him in front of the soldiers several times in order to maintain his authority, and once again said that he would cut off a green ribbon, and when Xu Rong came out to persuade him, Hu Zhen accused Xu Rong in public of secretly communicating with Wen Chou, so he refused to come to the aid when he was attacked.

When the news arrived, Wen Chou and Sun Jian were playing chess together. The two smiled at each other.

Sun Jian said: "Dong Zhuo Pifu, the wisdom of employing people! If I were Dong Zhuo, I would not send Lu Bu in this battle. ”

Wen Chou understands Dong Zhuo.

He smiled and said: "Shandong is all the enemy, and Dong Zhuo is also overstretched, so he has to send Lu Bu'er." ”

Although there are many soldiers and horses under Dong Zhuo's hands. But it's all pieced together, how to enter, He Miao's old department, such as the eight captains in Xiyuan, and the northern army in Luoyang, these troops are not very capable of fighting, the only two can fight, one is his headquarters Liangzhou soldiers, and the other is the original Ding Yuan's account and state soldiers, Wen Chou and Sun Jian all have the name of being good at fighting. In order to resist their offensive, Dong Zhuo would definitely not transfer those troops who could not fight and whose loyalty was not particularly guaranteed to rush to the aid of Taigu, so he had only two choices, either to send his headquarters or to send troops from the state.

His headquarters is limited, although the coalition army to fight for Dong is scattered, Yuan Shao is still in Jizhou, constantly recruiting troops. Eyeing the tiger, then he would definitely not dare to send too many headquarters to meet Wen Chou and Sun Jian. Because after all, Yuan Shao is his number one enemy.

In this way, Dong Zhuo could only choose to send part of the Liangzhou soldiers from his headquarters, plus some of the soldiers from the state.

Although Lu Bu and Hu Zhen are "not in harmony", but Lu Bu's loyalty to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo thinks that there is no problem at all, plus Lu Bu dares to fight. is a fierce man, and only from such a superficial appearance, he is indeed a good candidate.

Wen Chou and Sun Jian's game of chess had already played the middle game, and Sun Jian was at a disadvantage, so he glanced at the chessboard twice. felt that there was no hope of turning the game, so he made a generous and heroic gesture, stretched out his hand to mess up the chessboard, stood up, pressed his sword and said: "Hu Zhenshu insulted Lu Bu in public, and scolded Xu Rong in public, Dong Bing's heart was in turmoil at this time!" Zixiao, the time has come for you and me to attack. How about sending troops tomorrow? ”

Wen Chou was caught off guard, he actually watched Sun Jian mess up the chessboard, he looked down at the messy chessboard, and then raised his eyes to look at Sun Jian, who was pretending to be angry, holding his head high, and not falling on the chessboard at a glance, and said with a smile: "It's just a game of chess!" Wentai, why is this! ”

Sun Jian saw that Wen Chou had pierced his careful thoughts, his old face turned red, he put away his posture, scratched his head, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Not to mention one game of chess, I have lost to you two games in a row!" ”

"The way of chess is just a small way, and fighting on the battlefield is the right way. Attack tomorrow, and the position of the first strike will be given to you. ”

Sun Jian was overjoyed and said, "Okay! ”

Early the next morning, Wen Chou and Sun Jian, in addition to leaving thousands of soldiers guarding the camp, rode on foot, divided into two roads, one way also thousands of people, lined up outside the Taigu Pass, in order to prevent the Dong soldiers in the pass from leaving the pass, and the other road was the main force, and was divided into two parts, one led by Sun Jian, hitting the front of Hu Zhen, Lu Bu, and Xu Rongying, and one route was Wen Chou, who was listed on the side of Hu Zhen, Lu Bu, and Xu Rongying, echoing Sun Jian.

Wen and Sun rode tens of thousands of steps, and the smoke and dust outside Taigu Pass swept into the sky, and the noise shook the ground.

In the camp of Hu Zhen, Lu Bu, and Xu Rong, Wen Chou and Sun Jian had already received military reports at the beginning of their troops, and the three of them had already prepared.

When Wen Chou and Sun Jian sent troops to line up, Xu Rong suggested sending an elite to go out of the camp to counterattack first, but Hu Zhen refused.

Hu Zhen thought: "There are many thieves and soldiers, and I have few soldiers, so it is not suitable to go out to greet them, so we should stick to them." And think, "Although there are many thieves, if our soldiers hold on, it will be difficult for our battalion to go." Xu Rong asked again, and even said, "I am willing to take 3,000 from my headquarters and go out of the camp to fight back against the thieves", but he was still rejected by Hu Zhen, and someone under his account said strange things, saying: "General Xu took the initiative to ask Ying, and he wanted to take the soldiers out of the camp, but I don't know if he really wants to counterattack the Xun thieves, or if he wants to defect before the battle?" At this point, Xu Rong could only hold back his anger and say no more.

Xu Rong and Hu Zhen disagreed, and when Xu Rong asked for war twice, Lu Bu was on the side.

Although Lu Bu has a slow personality, but in the end he is also battle-hardened, and brave by nature, in the case of the enemy is outnumbered and our army has just been defeated, he actually agrees with Xu Rong's opinion, and also believes that he should strike first to boost morale, but because Hu Zhen twice said that "one or two green ribbons will be beheaded" and humiliated him in public, he did not say a word.

So, Dong Bing retreated into the camp, and watched Wen Chou and Sun Jian arrange their troops until Wen and Sun were arrayed.

If Wen Chou attacked first, after the formation was formed, he might first send a small force to try to attack Dong Ying, and then attack in a big way, but Sun Jian was not, he saved the temptation link, and as soon as the formation was formed, he directly sent the main force to attack.

Not only did he directly send the main force to attack first, but Sun Jian almost directly sent out his superiors/generals, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Zu Mao, Wu Jing, Sun Ben, and Sun He were all sent out by Sun Jian at one time.

Six Sun soldiers, divided into two parts.

One is composed of Wu Jing, Cheng Pu, and Zu Mao, and the other is composed of Sun Ben, Sun He, and Han Dang. (To be continued.) )
