Hu Zhen was unlucky. He thought that the enemy generals he encountered this time were all on the same level as Bao Zhong. He also wanted to brush up his merit points in front of Sishui Pass so that he could become famous in front of Dong Zhuo and achieve great success.

Hu Zhen had just led his troops to charge down the city. Cheng Pu, Sun Jian's general, flew directly towards Hu Zhen with his spear raised.

The two couldn't fight for a long time, so Cheng Pu stabbed Hu Zhen in the throat, and Hu Zhen's dead body fell under the horse. Sun Jian seized the opportunity and led his troops to kill in front of Sishui Pass. The city tower

The defenders above were throwing arrows like rain at Sun Jian's army. Sun Jian's army rushed to attack the city, hoping to attack the enemy unprepared. But as soon as Sun Jian saw the reaction of the army on the tower, he knew it was impossible.

Enemy.

So Sun Jian made a decisive decision, ordered gold to withdraw his troops, and returned to Liangdong with his troops to garrison. Knowing that he could not capture Sishui Pass in such a hurry, he sent people to Yuan Shao to report the victory, and also went to Yuan Shu to collect some food and grass.

Yuan Shu only gave him half a month's army rations. Seeing that the rations were about to be exhausted, Sun Jian naturally could no longer wait for the opportunity.

Originally, Sun Jian wanted to capture Sishui Pass in one fell swoop and start a successful victory. However, he did not expect that the defender of Sishui Pass would not leave the city at all and would not give him a chance to make a quick victory. What should he do? He wanted to rely on these things in his hand.

If the army and horses forcefully attack the city, there will definitely be countless casualties. If it were other people's soldiers and horses, Sun Jian would not feel bad. But these are his own personal guards, how could Sun Jian be willing to let them fight to the death to attack the city?

When Yuan Shao received the victory report from Sun Jianjun, he was naturally overjoyed and began to publicize it. Yuan Shao ordered people to spread the victory report to all camps and villages, and they all publicized the battle in which Sun Jianjun killed Dong Zhuo General Hu Zhen. When it was sent to Gongsun Zan, Chen Yong

His subordinates, whether Liu Xing, Fang Ming, or Li Meng, were all gearing up and eager to try. Chen Yong knew that he was tied to Gongsun Zan. If Gongsun Zan did not compete for the position of pioneer officer, he could only watch from the side.

When Sun Jian's soldiers came to Yuan Shu and asked for military rations, a man walked out from Yuan Shu's side. This man walked up to Yuan Shu and whispered: "Sun Jian is a tiger from the east of the Yangtze River. If Luoyang is defeated, he will kill Dong Zhuo, which will be the only way to get rid of the wolf."

And get the tiger.

If we don't give him food and fodder now, the other army in front of Sishui Pass will definitely not be the opponent of Dong Zhuo's army. Then the general will definitely lose a strong opponent. The Lord has a far-sighted vision. He will be the supreme leader in the Ninth Five-Year Plan in the future. How can he be Yuan Benchu?

Who can guess the meaning?"

Yuan Shu was very happy when he heard this, so he refused to distribute food and grass to Sun Jian's troops. Sun Jian's bodyguard knew that his lord had been targeted, but he had no choice but to return to the garrison in Liangdong alone, and Yuan Shu refused to distribute food and grass.

He must retaliate to his lord. Sun Jian's army is short of food, and the Jiangdong army he brought will naturally be dissatisfied, and the officers and men in the army will naturally be in chaos and complain.

The meticulous work of the Bishui Pass summarized all the news heard by the detectives and reported it to the pass. Although Hua Xiong was arrogant, he also knew that Sun Jian's Jiangdong Army was brave and good at fighting and was invincible.

.While he was secretly planning how to win, Li Su walked up to Hua Xiong and offered him a plan.

Li Su said: "Captain Hua is very happy. Although Sun Jian's army is brave and good at fighting, God helps me. These princes cannot work together and restrain each other, causing Sun Jian's army to be temporarily short of food. I have verified that the news reported in detail is true tonight.

I, Li Su, would like to lead a group of troops and horses to go down the pass from the pass and sneak attack Sun Jian's rear stronghold. I also ask the general to bring another army of horses to attack the front stronghold, and Sun Jian will definitely be able to capture him!"

Hua Xiong was overjoyed and believed it was a plan. Governor Hua only sent an order to the three armies that night to let 20,000 soldiers have a good meal. They divided into two groups on a moonlit night and stole Sishui Pass from both sides. Then he ordered the soldiers guarding the city to be tight.

When guarding the city, you must not be careless! You must always be on the city tower and wait until you return to the city before relaxing your vigilance. The general who defended the city received the order and led his troops to the Sishui Pass city tower to take full precautions.

It was a white night and the wind was clear. Hua Xiong ordered his soldiers to wrap their horses' hooves with cloth. He was afraid that the sound of the march would be too loud and alert Sun Jian's defenders, so that they would take precautions. It was already midnight when they arrived outside Sun Jian's stronghold.

Hua Xiong ordered the army to wait until the third watch of the day, and after agreeing on the time with Li Su, he marched forward with great fanfare and launched a fierce attack on Sun Jian's army's camp!

Sun Jian was unhappy in his heart, and he was also dissatisfied with the alliance leader Yuan Shao. His army was already short of food, which would cause the army to lose morale. How could Sun Jian not know? But he was now the commander-in-chief of the three armies and was not allowed to leave the camp without permission. Otherwise,

He has already gone back to Yuan Shao himself to find out. Is this the governor-general grain officer appointed by the commander of your alliance army? If the three armies are going to be in trouble this time, I, Sun Jianjian, will not give up!

At this moment, the rapid sound of war drums was heard outside the camp gate, and the shouts of killing were already rising to the sky. Sun Jian was frightened after hearing this. He hurriedly put on his clothes, mounted his horse, and rushed out of the barracks. He met Hua Xiong leading 10,000 men.

The army came to attack the camp. The officers and men of Sun Jian's army heard that the rations were about to be exhausted, and the personal guards sent by the general to collect the rations did not bring back a large number of grain-carrying horses and carts when they came back, but they came quietly alone.

Therefore, both the troops guarding the camp and the resting generals were dissatisfied. Everyone was worried that they were fighting bloody battles in the front, but were treated as fools by others and completely betrayed. This was where the eighteen princes gathered.

The coalition forces are not fighting for the world under Lord Sun Jian. No matter how much territory is conquered, no matter how hard people like you work, what is the reason for that in the end? Are you going to give others an advantage?

This kind of dissatisfaction fluctuated, and the sergeants in the camp naturally lost their morale. The brave man won the battle between the two armies. At this time, Sun Jian's army had no fighting spirit at all. How could it be the Xiliang cavalry of Governor Hua Xionghua?

The opponent? Sun Jian's army's camp was directly breached by the army led by Hua Xiong. Hua Xiong led his army into Sun Jian's camp, and Hua Xiong happened to encounter Sun Jian who rushed out of the barracks.

When the two met at this time, they were naturally extremely jealous. The two horses were fighting each other and could not fight for more than a few rounds. Li Su had already led his army to kill him. Then Li Su led his army from the back village and he never thought about fighting with him.

Sun Jianjun came to a head-to-head confrontation and ordered his sergeants to set fire to the whole camp!

When Li Su left the city, he specially brought sulfur smoke and salt for use at this time. Li Su led a sentry of troops and rushed into Sun Jian's army's rear stronghold, and set off a fire that reached into the sky.

Sun Jianjun had already lost his fighting spirit, and now even the camp in the back village was on fire, and the flames were soaring into the sky! Their soldiers were running around and jumping around, and the camp was in chaos in an instant.

In one group, the generals of Sun Jian's army had to fight in separate battles, and they could not find their lord Sun Jian at all.

Only Zu Mao followed Sun Jian. He saw that the camp was on fire, and all the soldiers began to break out and flee. Zu Mao rushed over, brandishing his two swords, and blocked Hua Xiong's sword. Zu Mao hurriedly

He asked his lord Sun Jian to flee quickly. Sun Jian knew that he was no match for Hua Xiong's powerful army, so he had no choice but to turn his horse's head and break through the encirclement and flee.

Behind him, Hua Xiong abandoned Zu Mao and led his army to pursue him. When Sun Jian saw that Hua Xiong was approaching, he reached out and took off the big bow on his back, and fired two arrows with his backhand. The two arrows that were suddenly shot were both shot by Hua Xiong.

Xiong dodged. When Sun Jian fired the third arrow, he used too much force and broke his magpie-painted bow.

Sun Jian had no choice but to abandon his bow and flee on horseback. However, the pursuers led by Hua Xiong were in hot pursuit. No matter where Sun Jian fled, he was closely pursued by Hua Xiong's army. Sun Jian's men and horses were exhausted after he had already run away.

, If we continue to run away like this, Sun Jiansun, who is alone in Wentai, will most likely be overtaken by Hua Xiong and his army. What should we do?

Zu Mao galloped up his horse and hurriedly urged the horse behind him to come over. Zu Mao shouted loudly: "My lord, the red turban helmet on your head is too eye-catching. It has been recognized by the Xiliang Military Academy. My lord, you can take off your turban."

If you wear it with me, I can lure all the enemy troops to pursue me, and you can just find a way to leave this place."

Sun Jian took off his robes and changed his hair, and put his red robe helmet on Zu Mao's head. In front of everyone, Sun Jian and Zu Mao began to escape in two directions. Hua Xiong's Xiliang army

I only looked forward to the pursuit of those in red turbans. In the night, only those wearing red turbans and helmets were more dazzling and easier to be seen. Naturally, they swarmed in and chased Zu Mao together.

Seeing that he had an opportunity, Sun Jian escaped from a small road. Zu Mao was not so lucky. He was chased by Hua Xiong's army and hung his red hat on the pillar of the courtyard that could not be burned.

But he hid in the woods next to him. By this time, Zu Mao believed that his lord Sun Jian had already escaped. He knew that he could not escape the pursuit of Hua Xiong's army, so he came up with this fish-or-death method...

Hua Xiong led his troops under the moon, and saw Chi Gu in the front courtyard in the distance. They surrounded the place on all sides, but did not dare to get close. Everyone knows that Sun Jiansun and Wentai are brave and brave. At this time, he will definitely do what he did.

There was a fight between the trapped beast. So Hua Xiong ordered his soldiers to shoot it with bows and arrows. However, the arrows were fired in unison, and several arrows were hit, but the red-banded helmet did not fall to the ground.

Hua Xiong knew it was a plan, so he went forward and took the red hat. He was furious and screamed. When Zu Mao heard Hua Xiong scolding his lord Sun Jian, he was naturally furious, so that he could fight out from behind.

, he brandished his two swords, trying to chop Hua Xiong off his horse!

How could Hua Xiong be able to compete with Zu Mao who was outnumbered? Hua Xiong shouted loudly, danced the big sword in his hand, and slashed Huashan with one force. Zu Mao had already been slashed under the horse by Hua Xiong! Hua Xiong used the sword with all his strength.

With all his strength, Zu Mao was chopped in half by Hua Xiong! Hua Xiong killed Zu Mao. Unable to relieve his anger, Hua Xiong sent troops to pursue and block him, killing the Jiangdong army horses that he could see.

They fought until daylight came out, and Hua Xiong led his troops back and headed straight for Sishui Pass. He knew that his generals were already exhausted at this time, and if he continued to pursue like this, he would probably fall into a trap. What's more, Hua Xiong also

I am worried that someone will attack Sishui Pass. I am the commander-in-chief of the three armies. If I lose the pass, it will be a serious crime...

Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and others were looking for Sun Jian everywhere. While they were running with horses and whips, they were also slowly gathering the scattered Jiangdong army. Those Jiangdong warriors who had been burned by the fire were like

After waking up from the dream, they slowly gathered under these generals. Soon Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang gathered together. They were even more anxious, worried that something would happen to their lord Sun Jian.

When the three of them were looking for Sun Jian, they found Zu Mao's body split in half in the woods. They asked the sergeants to collect the two halves of Zu Mao's body, put them on horseback, and searched for their lord.

It was not easy for them to find Sun Jian who had gone away, and these people cried with joy.

They gathered their troops and horses again and set up camp. When Sun Jian saw Zu Mao's body, he knew that he was overtaken by Hua Xiong's army to save himself, and ended up like this. Sun Jian and Sun Wentai were very sad.

Distraught, he could only be heard shouting: "Kill me!"
