After the two envoys left, Hu Zhen sat in the tent for a while, dealt with some military affairs, and felt that he should go out to observe the situation of Wen Chou, Sun Jian, and Wu Jing and Sun Ben's camps diagonally opposite, so he took the left and right, got up and left the table, but just came to the door of the tent, and suddenly heard someone whispering outside the tent, and listened carefully, but he couldn't hear it clearly, and vaguely heard that his name seemed to be mentioned.

Hu Zhen then walked out of the tent, looked at the place where the voice came from, and saw that it was two guards. When the two guards saw Hu Zhen coming out, they hurriedly shut down and stopped whispering. Hu Zhen beckoned the two of them to come closer and asked, "What are you and the two of you muttering in a whisper?" ”

These two guards look at me and I look at you, and they dare not answer. Hu Zhen suddenly became suspicious, and asked again with a pleasant face: "Why don't you speak?" It doesn't matter what you two say, but let it be. ”

The two guards still did not dare to answer. Hu Zhen then put away his warm face, took out his angry face, and asked sharply: "You two rats!" But you're discussing your back on me, Sun? ”

The two guards were startled, bowed down in panic, and said: "The villain is two people from Liangzhou, who have been around the general for a long time, and have won the favor of the general, how dare they have the idea of turning their backs on the general and surrendering to the general and Sun Zhi?" ”

Hu Zhen lowered his voice again and asked gently, "Then what were you two talking about just now?" The two guards still did not dare to speak.

Hu Zhen scolded with a smile: "As the two of you said, you two are Liangzhou men, but how can you be like a woman?" What is there that I can't say, that I can't hear? ”

"I'm just afraid that the general will be angry."

"Just say it, I'm not angry."

The two guards then replied: "I heard that General Lü, after knowing that the general was 'clever and should be ambushed', said ...... to General Xu and said ....... ”

The so-called "clever calculation should be ambushed", this is said to be Hu Zhen's proud thing of "not entering the literary ugly, Sun Jian's ambush circle".

"What did General Lu say to General Xu?"

"Say: The general has no guts."

"What?"

General Lu said: He rode with 3,000 horsemen, and the enemy Sun Jian had tens of thousands of people. And the general had a crowd of 10,000 people, but he did not dare to defeat Wen and Sun Qianqian. Yes, he said, "The general has no guts." ”

Hu Zhen was furious, only to feel the anger rushing from his feet to the top of his head, and noticed that the guards around him were peeking at the situation here, thinking that they should have heard his and the two guards' obedience. The anger turned into shame again, he wanted to draw his sword out, but there was nothing to cut nearby, so he closed his eyes, took a long breath, barely suppressed the rolling anger and shame, and asked the two guards: "What General Lu said to General Xu, how can you two know?" ”

"Didn't the general send Ah Cheng to see General Lu and Xu Er last night? These words were all heard by Ah Cheng in the second general's headquarters. ”

"Ah Cheng" is the person sent by Hu Zhen to see Lu Bu and Xu Rong last night. At the same time, this "Ah Cheng" is also one of Hu Zhen's personal guards.

Hearing this, Hu Zhen knew that this matter was not false, it should be true. If Ah Cheng can tell this thing to the two guards in front of him, these two guards will also be able to tell others about it, and maybe it won't be long before the whole army will know: Lu Bu said that Hu Zhen had no courage.

This is a matter related to the dignity of Hu Zhenwei, how can he be at peace? The more I thought about it, the more angry and ashamed I became. He feigned a laugh and said, "General Lu." I know how to do this. Ha ha. Before I came to the war, Xiangguo specially advised: Order me to be serious in everything. As the commander in chief of the three armed forces, how could I be so provoked by him? In the end, do I have the courage to have it, and when I fight with Wen and Sun in the future, I will ask General Lu to take a look, and he will know. ”

After speaking. He didn't look at the camp of Wen Chou and the others anymore, and turned around and returned to the tent. When he arrived in the tent, he couldn't hold back his anger, pulled out his sword, and slashed at the desk. Angry said to the left and right: "Lu Bu's traitor, how can you be qualified to say me? Xu Rong is not from Liangzhou, so I know that he is unreliable! Sure enough! Today, I am on the orders of Xiangguo, and I have a great responsibility to ask for Wen and Sun, and I can't say that I want to cut off one or two green ribbons to show military discipline and boost morale! ”

"Green ribbon", is Jiuqing, two thousand stones, two thousand stones, two thousand stones of the ribbon, all over Hu Zhen's current army, enough to be qualified to wear the ribbon only Hu Zhen, Lu Bu, Xu Rong three people, he said to cut "one or two green ribbons" to show discipline, morale, these "one or two green ribbons" refers to whom, obvious.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, what Lu Bu said to Xu Rong can reach Hu Zhen's ears, and Hu Zhen's words "When you cut one or two green ribbons" can also reach Lu Bu and Xu Rong's ears, at most, it is a relationship between time and time.

Wen Chou and Sun Jian are in the camp.

Hu Zhen and Xu Rong came one after another, and on the afternoon of the day when Hu Zhen was furious and said that he would cut off one or two green ribbons, Wen Chou and Sun Jian were discussing in the tent.

Wen Chou said to Sun Jian: "Wentai, from morning to just now, although there was no movement in Hu Zhenying, Xu Rong and Lu Buying had many people climbing high to peep at Huang Gai and Sun Benying. ”

"If that's the case, that's great!"

"How good could it be?"

"You and I can't set up an ambush for Hu Zhen, he was lightly and skillfully outside Taigu Pass, I am worried that I have no chance to clean him up, if Dong Bing really wants to hit Huang Gai and Sun Ben first, you and I can also take this opportunity to attack Hu Zhen to destroy it first!"

"Wentai, what I'm worried about is that I'm afraid that Huang Gai and Sun Ben won't be able to stop Dong Bing's offensive."

"Although Dong Bing is fine, Huang Gai and Sun Ben's battalion are also thousands of people, how can they not stop Dong Bing's offensive?"

"The Kansai soldiers are good at spears, attacking fortified positions, and are good at fighting, although Huang Gai and Sun Ben have thousands of people, if they are alone, they may be difficult to support."

"Kansai soldiers" refers to the soldiers in the place west of Hangu Pass, and they are also cold and pawns.

In order to better deal with the Qianghu cavalry, when the Han people's foot soldiers fight with them, they often use spears to line up, and the spears are more than one zhang long, just like an iron hedgehog, which is extremely powerful, and the spear array of this foot pawn can not only be used to defend, but also can be used to attack, and this method of warfare is also a big killing weapon when attacking.

When Wenba, Han Dang, and Xu Qi pursued Hu Zhen, why did they return in vain? There is a sentence mentioned in the military newspaper: Hu Jun's "guns and crossbows are ringed", and this "gun" is talking about this kind of spear formation of the Kansai infantry column.

At the same time, the Kansai soldiers were not only good at spears, but also at spears in cavalry.

Generally speaking, when the cavalry charges, many troops use crossbows and ring-headed knives, but the cavalry of Kansai is the same as the foot soldiers of Kansai, and they also use spears and spears. (To be continued.) )
