At the end of April in the first year of Chuping in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Dong Min, the general of the South Route of Dong Zhuo's army, led an army of more than 40,000 and fought a battle southwest of Wancheng with Yuan Shu's army as the main body, with both sides winning or losing.

In early May, General Xu Rong of Sishui Pass devised a plan to separate Yuan Shu's army from Sun Jian's army, and defeated Yuan Shu's army the next day.

Under the Sishui Pass, there were already densely populated camps.

Xu Rong saw that the Allied forces could not stand for a long time. He also received a tip that Dong Min from the south had already fought a decisive battle with the main force of Yuan Shu's army, and decided to go to help.

He asked his subordinates to make careful attempts to alienate the suspicious Zhang Xun. Zhang Xun fell into the trap and dispersed the garrison with Sun Jian's army, stopped the siege, and sent troops to defend Sun Jian's army.

After the siege lasted for half a month, Zhang Xun's troops, as the main force, had suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining 20,000 troops were less than 12,000 troops. He was very angry that Sun Teng kept using his father as an excuse not to send troops, but he could not get angry.

, I can only hold it in my heart.

Recently there are rumors in the army that Sun Teng wants to turn against the enemy and wait until Zhang Xun's troops have almost suffered casualties before seizing Zhang Xun's military power.

This made Zhang Xun a little scared, and without explaining it clearly to Sun Teng, he left Dazhai with his troops, and asked Qiao Rui to lead 5,000 troops to guard against Sun Teng's troops.

Immediately afterwards, the original rhythm of attacking the city every day also stopped.

Xu Rong ordered Li Meng to guard the pass with 14,000 troops, which were the original 5,000 defenders and 9,000 infantry brought from Luoyang.

Xu Rong personally led nearly 19,000 elite cavalry and 10,000 infantry to fight out of Guanzhong. Hua Xiong led 5,000 cavalry and 5,000 infantry to monitor Sun Jian's army. Xu Rong and three other brothers divided their forces to surround Zhang Xun's troops of Yuan Shu's army.

"Send the order, the whole army is ready to attack!" Xu Rong had already quietly sneaked into the night with his men, and Wang Yu, Sima Yu and other three troops were also ready to attack.

For a moment, fire broke out everywhere.

Xu Rong's troops are worthy of being Dong Zhuo's most elite cavalry, and there are many capable men who are good at riding and shooting.

The soldiers of Yuan Shu's army who were still sleeping were awakened by the deafening sound of killing. They hurriedly dragged their tired bodies to pick up their weapons to fight back. What's more, some of them didn't even have time to put on their armor.

"Damn it! We were attacked by a sneak attack. Send an order quickly for Qiao Rui to lead troops to support! Leave Sun Teng alone!" Zhang Xun was also startled and shouted loudly.

At this time, Qiao Rui's tribe was attacked by three thousand cavalry led by Sima Yu and fell into chaos, unable to protect themselves.

The elite cavalry of Dong Zhuo's army became the devils of massacre at this time, killing everyone on sight, and the advantages of the cavalry were fully utilized.

"Young Master! Zhang Xun's camp is on fire. It seems to have been attacked by Dong Zhuo's army!" Zu Mao rushed into Sun Teng's tent. At this time, Sun Teng was reading the letter that had just been sent from Sun Jian.

"Don't worry, Uncle Zu, you should read this letter first. This is what my father meant." Sun Teng handed the letter in his hand to the panting Zu Mao.

Zu Mao took the letter and looked at it. He was shocked and said: "Is this a letter from the lord? The lord actually asked us to spare no effort to cooperate with Yuan Shujun!"

"Yes, this is definitely a letter from my father. In order to repay Yuan Shu's kindness to him, my father asked us to focus on Yuan Shu and cooperate with him."

"Well, young master, now we can only send troops to rescue Zhang Xun immediately!"

"Yes, we can't violate father's wishes. Let Yu Biao guard the camp while we mobilize 8,000 troops to rescue Zhang Xun!"
