Chapter Ninety-Four: Confrontation

After the news of the defeat of the reconnaissance cavalry team reached Dong Shouye's ears, Dong Shouye was also quite surprised, but he did not expect that his well-trained cavalry did not defeat the opponent's so-called "cavalry" that had just been formed. Could it be that the fighting spirit of the opposing cavalry can be compared with his own.

Later, Dong Shouye learned that the other party relied on trap fortifications, relied on defense and then counterattacked.

Suddenly, it seemed that his men and horses were a little dizzy under the successive victories, and there was a situation of despising their opponents.

Dong Shouye urgently convened a meeting of military advisers to inform the generals under his command of the situation. Paying strict attention to the opponent has always been one of the guiding ideologies of Dong Shouye's leading troops in battle, and he strictly ordered the generals under his command not to underestimate the enemy.

However, this is only a small episode, and it has little impact on the overall situation.

The head of Xiaotun who fought this time was only one of the many beings under Dong Shouye's command, and he couldn't get into Dong Shouye's eyes, so Dong Shouye didn't hear the name of this person. If Dong Shouye heard the name of this little tun chief, he would definitely be surprised, and regret that he didn't ask for this person's name at the beginning.

After the Xiliang Army led by Dong Shouye and the men and horses led by Zhu Jun came into contact on a small scale, the two sides also had a deeper understanding of each other's combat effectiveness, and they also looked up to each other more and feared each other.

At this time, Zhu Jun also left the vicinity of Yuting and entered Xingyang County, where Xu Rong had been stationed before, and it seemed that he was ready to play a protracted battle.

Dong Shouye felt a little unhappy at this time, this Zhu Jun is cunning and cunning, choosing not to fight with his own side, does he want to exhaust his own food and grass?

As the attacker, he has been cowering in Xingyang County, holding on, Dong Shouye sent a fine work to monitor the city, but he has not found that the other party has the slightest intention of wanting to go out of the city to attack him.

Dong Shouye also thought about directly sending troops to attack Xingyang County, but wouldn't that be the strength of attacking the enemy with his own shortcomings? The Xiliang army is good at field warfare, and siege has always been its relatively weak aspect.

If Dong Shouye commanded the troops to forcibly attack the city, even if he won the final victory, it would inevitably cause huge losses, which was a situation that Dong Shouye did not want to see. Moreover, Dong Shouye let Xu Rong occupy the Tiger Prison Pass, and the fight was based on the idea of sticking to the Tiger Prison Pass, and now Xu Rong's Ministry is also focusing on repairing the Tiger Prison Pass.

Therefore, Dong Shouye's army did not have too many siege equipment, and it could even be said that there were no preparations for attacking the city at all, because the whole army always thought that Zhu Jun would take the initiative to attack him.

Now Zhu Jun is a scheming and calculating, and the strategy he implemented was unexpected, which caught Dong Shouye off guard. Originally, Zhu Jun thought that the Xiliang army on the opposite side would not be able to hold back and would take the initiative to attack him, but the other party was unexpectedly calm. It seems that the generals in the Xiliang army are all hot-tempered, this sentence is also a rumor, and it is not credible.

Dong Shouye wanted to play the old way of dealing with Sun Jian some time ago, and asked several generals under his command to take their men and horses to Xingyang City to challenge to see if they could kill a few generals on the other side, but Zhu Jun still couldn't give the order.

Several generals from the Xiliang Army who went to challenge shouted hoarsely, and none of them came out to fight. No matter how much Xiliang Jun insulted and scolded the other party, he just couldn't stick to it.

Dong Shouye's tentative move did not achieve any effect, and now he has not even found out which generals are under Zhu Jun's command, let alone others.

However, the current Dong Shouye is not worried, and he is willing to spend time here with Zhu Jun.

Because of the detailed work arranged by Dong Shouye in Hanoi County, news has been spread that Zhao Fu and Cheng Jian have led 10,000 strong crossbowmen to leave Hanoi County.

After receiving this news, Dong Shouye estimated that the battle for Jizhou between Yuan Shao and Han Fu was about to begin, and it was possible that the news of Jizhou changing hands would soon come. Now that the coalition forces on the northern front have been disbanded, the date for the disbandment of the coalition forces on the eastern front is not far away, and it is estimated that the grain and grass in the sour jujube camp are almost exhausted, and the news of the dissolution of the coalition forces on the eastern front will come out soon.

If the Kwantung Coalition Army on the Eastern Front is disbanded, then Zhu Jun will have no backup, and even if Dong Shouye fights for greater losses, he will have to kill Zhu Jun.

During the confrontation between Zhu Jun and the Xiliang army, he received the news that the Xiliang army had crossed the Yellow River, attacked Wang Kuang, and completely annihilated the other party. Zhu Jun was surprised, he didn't expect the famous Wang Kuang to be so vulnerable.

Zhu Jun had also heard the news that Wang Kuang had recruited 500 rhubarb crossbowmen in Taishan County, so he was very surprised that Wang Kuang, who was strong and strong, was suddenly annihilated.

At this time, Zhu Jun guessed that since the Xiliang Army had defeated Wang Kuang, the troops that had been pretending in Gongxian County before must have been a partial division, and he also regretted that he could not detect it in time at that time, and was exploited by the enemy, so that he missed a great opportunity. But it's useless to regret it now, so let's concentrate on what is happening in front of you.

To this end, Zhu Jun sent his henchmen to the direction of Nanyang to see how the shape near Luyang was and whether the two sides could cooperate and cooperate with each other.

At the same time, Zhu Jun continued to send more detailed work to the Xiliang Army camp near Hugao Pass to investigate the specific situation. And secretly check whether the other party has exposed flaws. Zhu Jun knew that his troops were inferior to the other party, so he wanted to win with surprise.

The so-called victory by surprise is nothing more than three aspects, water attack, fire attack, and surprise attack. It seems that there is basically no chance of water attack and fire attack now, the water potential of several nearby rivers is average, and they are in the downstream, so they do not have the advantage of water attack; As for the fire attack, both sides are now in open terrain, there are no dead ends, and if the fire attack is effective, it can be said that it is basically impossible; In the end, there is a surprise attack, and the conditions in this regard are also very immature, and now the two sides are meticulous, there are a lot of sentinels, and the two sides have been facing each other for a while, and the situation of the two sides will not change for a while, and the situation of wanting to catch the other party off guard basically does not exist, and the only feasibility is to sneak attack at night.

However, the news sent back by Zhu Jun recently said that the other party's defense at night was also very tight, and there were not many opportunities for night attacks. Zhu Jun is not a stunned young man like Sun Ce, and he only relies on a bloody and brave spirit to sneak attack other people's camps.

The fine workers he sent out were disguised and camouflaged to reach the vicinity of the enemy's camp, and then lurked and observed carefully. After a period of time, they found that the vicinity of the opponent's camp was very well guarded, and even the soldiers who patrolled each time would take a fixed route, and this was the case every time, and basically did not change.

Zhu Juntong guò analyzed these first-hand news and judged that there should be many traps waiting for him near the camp of the Xiliang army. Therefore, I still choose to continue to wait and wait for the other party's flaws.
