Bao Zhong was really interested in attacking Bishui Pass before Sun Jian, and he finally achieved his goal. It's just that he thinks of the beginning, but not the end.
He arrived outside Bishui Pass exactly the next morning, and the 100,000 soldiers had been exhausted by a night's march, but Bao Zhong, who was worried that Sun Jian's army would arrive soon, did not let the army rest, but immediately ordered to knock on the pass and attack the city.
In order to improve the morale of the army, Bao Zhong stood up for the first time and went to the gate to fight. The reason why he is so confident is that he thinks that the main force of Dong Zhuo's army should be in Tiger Prison Pass, and there should only be two or three kittens in Bishui Pass, which is not a piece of cake for him?
Of course, at this time, Hua Xiong was not completely appreciated by Dong Zhuo, but he saw that he was brave and quite capable, and he recommended himself, which made him come to guard the Bishui Pass.
However, Hua Xiong is a person with real materials, and he naturally will not sit still for Bao Zhong's clamor outside the pass, and immediately gathered his troops and horses and rushed out.
The two sides soon fought to one place, and as soon as they came into contact, Bao Zhong was frightened by Hua Xiong's strength. Invincible, he looked for an opportunity to withdraw, but Bao Zhong, who was already weak, was not Hua Xiong's opponent under distraction, but in three or four rounds, he was slashed by Hua Xiong.
"Kill me!" Hua Xiong turned around and yelled, and then led his soldiers to rush towards the army brought by Bao Zhong.
Bao Zhong's death greatly reduced the morale of his soldiers, and when Hua Xiong rushed over and killed more than ten people in a row like chopping melons and vegetables, Bao Zhong's army collapsed on the whole line, and countless soldiers lost their armor and fled in all directions, while the army led by Hua Xiong only needed to raise the weapons in his hands and cut at the enemy, and there was no need to defend at all.
The rout was out of control. At the moment when Bao Zhong was killed, the end of his army was already doomed, not to mention that the number of troops brought by Bao Zhong was smaller than that of Hua Xiong's army, and at the same time, these soldiers and horses had just been exhausted after a long journey, so the result was tragic.
In the end, less than three of Bao Zhong's troops fled the battlefield, and no one knows where they went, but one thing is certain, and they did not return to Bao Xin's tent outside the Tiger Prison Pass. Let's be honest. In this troubled world, few people are willing to join this ranking, and now that they have the opportunity to get rid of it, they will naturally not give up. Unless someone has someone in their allegiance who needs to be guarded, perhaps he will return. But it is obvious that Bao Zhong's subordinates do not have such people, or perhaps his methods of treating his subordinates are too harsh, so that under weighing the stakes and risks, the psychology of fleeing for their lives still prevails.
After defeating Bao Zhong's army, Hua Xiong returned to Guanshang and guarded the water. At the same time, he sent someone to report the battle situation just now to Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo was overjoyed and immediately made Huaxiong the governor. Now that the war at Bishui Pass is over, it didn't take much time for the messenger to be teleported directly to Luoyang City.
Shortly after the remnants of Bao Zhong's defeated army fled the battlefield. Sun Jian led his army over, and when he saw the battlefield full of chaos, he was very puzzled, he naturally didn't know that Bao Xin wanted to grab credit. first let his younger brother take the path to knock on the level, and finally ended up with a dead ending.
But Sun Jian's insight is also extraordinary. After seeing that the walls of Bishui Pass were not damaged in the slightest, and most of the soldiers killed on the ground were not Dong Thief's army, he guessed that there might be an alliance army that came to attack Bishui first, but it ended in failure. As for whether the other party's purpose is to grab credit, he doesn't know.
When Sun Jian and others came to the pass, Hua Xiong quickly got the news in the pass, and after scolding in his heart, he led a group of generals to climb the city wall.
At this time, a military general holding an iron spine snake spear was fighting below, and a military general beside Hua Xiong said: "Dudu, the last general is willing to go and meet him!" ”
Hua Xiong nodded and agreed, and said, "Wencai is going to go by himself, but this person has some strength, so you have to be careful!" ”
It turned out that the person who invited the battle was Huaxiong's deputy general Hu Zhen, and he only heard him laugh and say, "Haha...... Don't worry, when the last general goes to fold his head and comes to celebrate the governor's success! With that, he ordered the gates of the city to be opened and an army rode out.
The military general shouted loudly and said: "A certain is Changsha Taishou Sun Jian's military general Cheng Pu is also!" Whoever comes comes by name! ”
Hu Zhen stepped forward immediately, and while rushing towards Cheng Pu, he shouted: "I am the Zhonglang general Hu Zhen!" Nameless child, hurry up! After that, he slashed Cheng Pu on the head.
Cheng Pu has been fighting with Sun Jian for many years, how can he be easy to follow? At that moment, I saw the snake spear in his hand twisted, and a spear blocked Hu Zhen's big knife, and then with a turn of the edge, he stabbed Hu Zhen in the chest.
Hu Zhen only felt a shock in his hand, and a strong force came from the knife, and his heart was suddenly shocked! put away his contempt. Seeing the snake spear that stabbed over, Hu Zhen leaned sharply and dodged, but at this time, his center of gravity was unstable, and he couldn't fight back. At that moment, he stabbed the big knife in his hand to the ground, and he was ready to sit firmly with his strength. However, how could Cheng Pu let him succeed lightly, he twisted the spear back sharply with both hands, and the spear body suddenly hit Hu Zhen's right waist, causing Hu Zhen to fly off the horse, and a mouthful of blood spurted out immediately.
Taking advantage of his illness to kill him, Cheng Pu saw Hu Zhen fall to the ground, and immediately rode his horse and rushed forward, without waiting for Hu Zhen to react, a spear stabbed Hu Zhen in the throat. Hu Zhen suddenly spat blood in his mouth, and lost his life in an instant, and Cheng Pu picked up the two things he burst out. Although he didn't like these items, it was still useful to hand them over to Sun Jian.
As soon as Hu Zhen died, Sun Jian immediately ordered the army to charge, wanting to take Bishui Pass while the morale of his army was high.
However, Hua Xiong is definitely a person who can break the wrist of a strong man, watching Sun Jian start to lead the army to attack the city, regardless of the fact that there are still nearly 10,000 soldiers under the city, he immediately ordered the city gate to be closed, and then the bow and arrow were wound, waiting for Sun Jian's army to attack the city.
Within a few breaths, Sun Jian had already led the army to rush to three or four hundred meters in front of the city wall, and Dong Zhuo's army, which had originally stayed outside the city, also knew that it was hopeless to enter the city, so they rushed towards Sun Jian's army with a certain heart of death.
Their impact only brought a little trouble to Sun Jian's army, and it soon ended up being annihilated, but when Sun Jian's army came to the city, countless stones and rolling logs were suddenly thrown on the city, and archers and catapults also frantically attacked the ground at this time. One by one, the lives disappeared in an instant.
Sun Jian turned around and ordered the catapult to return fire as he swept away the arrows. However, he also knew that he had not brought a large number of catapults with him to attack Bishui Pass this time, so he could not have an advantage in this regard.
Sun Jian took the lead, rushed to the front, although greatly boosted morale, but the defenders on the Bishui Pass were also fierce and abnormal, after a fierce battle, Sun Jian's army lost some soldiers and horses, seeing that there was no hope of taking the pass, had to withdraw back.
Immediately, Sun Jian sent people back to the outside of the Tiger Prison Pass, reported the battle here to Yuan Shao, and at the same time asked Yuan Shu to bring some grain and grass over. After all, the wall of Bishui is strong, and I am afraid that it will not be able to be defeated in a day or two.
However, by the time the messenger sent by Sun Jian rushed back to the Tiger Prison Pass, it was already getting dark. At the same time, Yuan Shao suffered a big loss under the Tiger Prison, so he didn't care much about the messenger's report and sent him away hastily. When the messenger went to Yuan Shu again to ask for grain and grass, Yuan Shu was worried that Sun Jian would sit big after taking the Bishui Pass, so he withheld the grain and grass and refused to distribute it. The messenger had no choice but to turn around and leave, preparing to return to Bishui Pass to report the situation to Sun Jian.
However, before the messenger could leave the Allied camp, he was stopped by a general, who whispered a few words in his ear, and immediately made the gloom in his heart disappear, and he couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and immediately rode his war horse and ran towards Bishui Pass.
……
The outer part of the alliance army camp is where Yang Tian is stationed, and the central marshal tent is still brightly lit at this time.
"Bonghyo, do we really need to do this?" Yang Tian asked with a puzzled expression.
Guo Jia said: "My lord, although Sun Jian has outstanding skills in both force and command, if he has the opportunity, he will not be able to achieve a career in the future, as the lord thinks, such a person will be a big trouble in the future." Moreover, Sun Jian's territory is now Changsha County, and the distance between him and Huiji County is not too far, if the power grows in the future, it will inevitably affect the development of Baiyun City. But for now, Sun Jian will not be able to pose a threat to the lord, and now that Sun Jian is attacking Bishui Pass, there is a lack of grain and grass, and I am afraid that something will happen. If we can save him urgently, Sun Jian will definitely be grateful, and the relationship with Sun Jian will definitely be beneficial to Baiyun City in the short term. At the same time, if we can go further and help Sun Jian win the Bishui Pass, it will be a great achievement, which will play a vital role in the battle against Dong, and it will be able to win great prestige for the lord. ”
Yang Tian was silent for a moment, but then he thought about it, since he believed in Guo Jia's talent, he should not doubt it, as the saying goes, don't use suspicious people, don't doubt people, and his hesitation will leave an image of indecision, and immediately said: "Since this is the case, then Fengxiao will make arrangements!"
Guo Jia said: "Now Sun Jian's headquarters should have more than 1 million soldiers and horses, and it should be a relatively elite army. At the same time, because a large number of Inhumans joined Sun Jian's command, the number of his army increased dramatically, and the most conservative estimate is that these troops should not be less than two million. And what we need to do most now is to prepare food and grass for Sun Jian's soldiers and horses, and the other aliens don't need to think about it, they came to participate in this battle against Dong, and naturally they also brought food and salary. And because they didn't officially join the alliance, the grain and grass were not managed in a unified manner. And because our grain and grass were placed in the lord's Xuanji Ring and Ghost Ring, although some of them were handed over as a coping, the amount left behind was quite a lot. We took out some of it for Sun Jian for emergency, and there should be no problem. After using it, we can send someone back to Baiyun City to get it, and we don't have to worry about food and grass at all. (To be continued)
