"Is there already a slight commotion in Sun Jian's troops? Our army should not have sent people to harass the other party's grain road, this is ...... Could it be a ploy set up by the Kanto children to seduce us? ”

Hu Zhen looked at the information sent by the fine in his hand, his brows were tightly locked, and his eyes were full of confusion and entanglement.

Since the end of the last battle, although the Xiliang army in a big battle has not been able to improve their morale much, they don't have to worry about the decline in morale, so no matter how hard Sun Jian tried his best, he couldn't stimulate them out of the revolving gate.

Although Hu Zhen is very happy and quite harsh and a little timid to his subordinates, but from another point of view, timidity means caution, so Hu Zhen, who has accumulated enough advantages, will naturally not be bored and touch nails. What's more, he saw very clearly in the battle that day, although Sun Jian's troops failed to suppress the Xiliang army, but Sun Jian and several generals under him were extremely active, and the middle-level officers in the Xiliang army were not their opponents at all.

In this way, the situation was stalemate, and Hu Zhen and Sun Jian also sent messengers to their rear base camps, on the one hand, to introduce the development of the war situation, and on the other hand, to apply for commendations and requests for reinforcements for meritorious soldiers. Although the Hudunge area is steep and narrow, if the attacking side adopts wheel warfare, it may not be enough to rely on the soldiers and horses that Hu Zhen is currently controlling.

The most important thing is that after breaking through the defense of the Chenggao-Tiger Prison, there is a smooth road in front of the Kwantung princes, and the only thing that needs to be captured is a Luoyang Lonely City, so it is extremely cost-effective to waste some men and horses at the Revolving Gate Pass.

What Hu Zhen was waiting for was Dong Zhuo's commendation order and the reward of wealth and meat. And Sun Jian, even the originally abundant grain and grass is not enough, and now he has seen through the autumn water. If it weren't for Sun Jian's great prestige and a lot of inventory as a reward, I am afraid that a mutiny would have happened.

The army of the princes, you can completely imagine it as the army of those warlords of the Republic of China, except that there are no smoking guns in hand or using tobacco to pay the army, the composition of the two has a very striking similarity.

During this period, even the salaries of officials were settled in grain, and later changed to half of the grain and half equivalent copper coins, so the military salary was basically settled with grain, while the wealth and precious metals were mainly distributed in the form of rewards, which were generally not included in the weekday salary.

In addition, the status of ordinary soldiers in this period was generally very low, and although the officers' personal soldiers were slightly special, they were also directly related to the status of the officers, which can be said to be similar to the taste of domestic slaves or private soldiers. Therefore, in order to prevent the emergence of deserters, in this era, the soldiers' household registration is even specially arranged, called "military households", in order to prevent soldiers from escaping, and once they enter the military register, not only will they have to be soldiers for the rest of their lives, but they will also have to engage in this profession for generations.

Of course, this system was not obvious when the Han Dynasty was strong, because a large number of soldiers could be gathered just by conscription, so except for some special areas, most areas still adopted a military service system similar to the compulsory military system.

It's just that in the future, with the gradual intensification of the melee of the princes and the sharp increase in the demand for soldiers, the military household system has become a kind of normalization.

But it can also be seen from this that in addition to those good soldiers who aspired to become generals from the beginning, most of the rest of them were bankrupt peasants and small craftsmen, and they could not survive to become soldiers to obtain food and pay to survive, and if they could occasionally get a reward, then they could live a little happier in the next period of time.

It can be seen that once the food and salary are insufficient, it not only means that the soldiers will go hungry to fight, but more importantly, their future life is likely to become unsettled. The example of Jiangxia guarding Qin Jie is enough to illustrate this truth.

That's why Hu Zhen is so entangled, because once the intelligence is confirmed to be true, then Sun Jianjun's military spirit will definitely not be stable at this time. Seize? Still not fighting? What if it's a trap?

Such thinking is cautious for a nature (ahem...... It's too hard for a greedy general at the same time.

However, Hu Zhen finally didn't dwell on it for too long, because a guy familiar with Hu Zhen appeared.

"General, I just got the news from Luoyang, Sun Jian somehow offended Yuan Shu, and now the grain and grass that should be allocated to him have been detained by Yuan Shu. These guys from the Kanto region are really interesting, they actually regard the battlefield as their court, and they can toss as much as they want, but it's okay, it's just for us to solve Sun Jian, the number one enemy. ”

"Oh? Li Deyong, what did you just say? ”

Hu Zhen had been fighting for Sun Jian's problem just now, so he didn't hear what the visitor said, but seeing the appearance of the visitor, Hu Zhen was still slightly happy, and hurriedly and enthusiastically pulled the other party to his side.

The person who came was Li Su, the guard general of Chenggao appointed by Dong Zhuo, a magical existence who was quite a fish in water in a group of Xiliang people as a merger in the rather xenophobic Xiliang army.

Speaking of which, Li Su is also an old man under Dong Zhuo, although the time he has followed Dong Zhuo is not as good as that of Li Dao and Guo Yan, who have been in contact with and even defected to Dong Zhuo since he started, but he has also had quite a few years.

At that time, Dong Zhuo was promoted to the history of the state assassin, and led a group of Xiliang soldiers from the northwest battlefield to the northern battlefield, although the battlefield has changed, but the tone of the war has not changed, Dong Zhuo is still fighting on the front line against foreign races.

As Lu Bu's hometown, Li Su was also born in Wuyuan County, where Hu and Han are mixed, and since he was a child, he has been exposed to the bloody law of the jungle where the strong are kings and the weak are slaves, and he naturally worships Dong Zhuo, who is brave in battle.

The children of Wuyuan, even if they are scholars who aspire to be scholars, also have a strong atmosphere, which is naturally very suitable for Dong Zhuo and the group of Xiliang Army, and Li Su's own literacy is also the second only talent in the Xiliang Army to Li Ru, in a group of muscles in the Xiliang Army, such a guy with a lot of brains gradually has a high status, and even many people like to discuss some issues with him.

It's just that Li Su's ambitions don't stop there, he hopes to be able to gain a higher status and more power. It's just that the strength he has is not enough to support his ambitions, so he is very self-aware and chooses to lie dormant temporarily.

"There is reliable information that there are people within the coalition who want to trouble Sun Jian, and he is afraid that there is already a problem with his grain and grass."

"Well, that's a godsend. Deyong, what good way do you have, even if there is a shortage of food and grass, it is a matter of more than worth the loss to fight with that Sun Wentai head-on, after all, we still have to face hundreds of thousands of princes' alliances. ”

Although the Xiliang Army is nominally under Dong Zhuo's control, but like Hu Zhen, Duan Xuan, and Yang Ding, there are thousands of people in their headquarters, plus the small Haoqiang or family that is closely related to them, the strength they control is very considerable. This is also the reason why Dong Zhuo asked Hu Zhen to lead the people of the headquarters plus Li Meng and Zhao Cen to the revolving gate.

If these horses are exhausted, then his status will be shaken immediately, and he will even be swallowed up by others. So how to win the battle without paying too many men and horses, this is Hu Zhen's small abacus.

"Then I will lead an army down the pass from the path, and after attacking Sun Jianzhai, the general will attack his front village, and he can be captured."

Li Su just rolled his eyes, and a plan was immediately released, but I don't know if this speed is because Li Su's hidden attribute is a microwave oven, or if he has been waiting for this moment for a long time, maybe only he knows.

Hu Zhen trusted Li Su, so he agreed to Li Su's plan after a little thought. Then, the entire revolving door began to get busy.

In fact, as long as the veterans heard the order of the heralds to "eat a full meal", they knew that they were about to face a big war, because it was also a habit to let the soldiers who were about to go to danger have a full meal, and they should die as a full ghost instead of starving to death, just like the last meal of the condemned prisoners before their execution was often extraordinarily rich.

Hu Zhen left a total of 5,000 people to guard the pass, and the main commander of the pass was Zhao Cen - a deputy general who was not outstanding in strength, but was able to perform such an important task as escorting grain and grass in the Xiliang army, and was steady and careful. It can be said that there is a revolving gate pass that Zhao Cen is watching, and Hu Zhen even thinks that he is more confident than guarding the pass.

Compared with the large army, the small detachment that Li Su used to sneak attack the rear army was much earlier, and it was unusually inconspicuous in the fanfare arrangement in the pass, which was obviously to guard against the spies of the coalition army ambushing the Xiliang army.

This advance team has spent a lot of thought.

Although according to Li Su's plan, the success or failure of this battle is obviously decided by this special team, then Li Su can obviously get enough credit for this battle. However, as the main general, it is not difficult for Hu Zhen to get a sufficient share, not to mention that his containment attack in front can be changed into a strong attack at any time according to the situation. Second, it is because the number of people in that squad is too small, the variables are too large, and the danger coefficient is definitely as high as 3.5, which is obviously not in line with Hu Zhen's "cautious" character.

Since the victory or defeat is decided by the special squad, it is inevitable to give this squad enough striking ability, so Hu Zhen assigned Li Zhuo, who had been outstanding in the previous battle, to that squad, and at the same time sent a lot of elite soldiers, so that this thousand-strong squad could exert its combat effectiveness with one enemy and ten and completely disrupt Sun Jian's army.

In the battle before the pass, although Cheng Pu and others killed Yang Ke, Dong Zhuojun suffered nearly 2,000 casualties, but Sun Jian's army lost more than 3,000 troops. It can be said that in the face of a checkpoint guarded by elite soldiers, it is indeed extremely difficult to make a difference with an almost equal or even slightly inferior number, and Sun Jian definitely does not want heavy casualties. Without the certainty of breaking the city, Sun Jian chose to wait for the arrival of the main force, does this mean that Dong Zhuojun has an opportunity?

The answer will be revealed tonight.

ps: I had a cold again, this time it was more back, which caused an asthma attack. Anyway, it's so painful to be out of breath............
