The Rebellious Officials and Traitors of the Late Han Dynasty

Chapter 27 Huang Gongfu, how can you hide this from me?

"The general is truly a god! Facing the Jiangdong Five Tigers, he actually did not fall behind and instead killed his general."

Hua Xiong welcomed Qin Shou in and laughed.

"It's just a rat from Guandong. I can do it, and so can the general."

Qin Shou said nonchalantly.

Although Hua Xiong knew that he was unlikely to face the siege of five people at the same time, he was very happy in his heart.

I couldn't help laughing.

"General, Sun Jian is defeated and will not provoke him in the short term. Sishui Pass has been defended." Li Su said at the side.

Everyone's task is to guard Sishui Pass.

"The rats from Guandong are so incompetent. It doesn't matter if we defend Sishui Pass. We should attack and completely eliminate these rats." Hua Xiong waved his right hand and said loudly.

Qin Shou's bravery gave Hua Xiong confidence that he could defeat the heroes of Guandong.

"General, the Rats in Guandong are outnumbered and powerful, but they are scheming among themselves. In order to seize the credit, Bao Xin let his younger brother seize Sishui Pass first, which is enough to show that these guys are not united."

"The news from the prisoners is that Yuan Shao asked Yuan Shu to be in charge of the food and grass. Yuan Shu is a sinister man who is suspicious of talents. When he passed through Yuzhou, he once offended Yuan Shu. Since then, Sun Jian's food and grass may have problems."

Qin Shou analyzed.

"What Yi Lu said is very reasonable. Hum, if there is a problem with Sun Jian's food and grass, hey, it's another great achievement!" Hua Xiong nodded repeatedly after hearing this, patted Qin Shou on the shoulder, and said: "Today we killed the enemy general. I will report the credit to the Prime Minister immediately, and I believe the Prime Minister will definitely reward the general generously."

"Thank you for the promotion, Governor!"

Qin Shou's face suddenly showed joy, but there was something strange in Hua Xiong's eyes.

Among the 50,000 troops, Hua Xiong's headquarters has 10,000 troops, all of which are cavalry. If they can be captured, his strength will be greatly expanded.

After being reminded by Qin Shou, Hua Xiong stayed in seclusion and allowed Sun Jian to attack day and night, waiting for the opponent's food and grass to run out.

Sure enough, three days later, the sentinel sent news that the soldiers in Sun Jian's camp were complaining. They also saw that there was very little smoke over the camp, and they immediately knew that Sun Jian's camp was short of food and grass.

At night, in Sun Jian's camp, the lights were dim, there were no bonfires, and the entire camp was silent.

The city gates of Sishui Pass opened wide, and Hua Xiong led his troops out in full force, heading towards Sun Jian's camp.

On the city wall, Qin Shou, Zhang Liao, and Xia Houlan quietly looked at everything in front of them.

"My lord, my subordinates saw that Hua Xiong did this on purpose, so he asked me to wait for the guards to attack Sun Jian's camp by myself, so that we can make some meritorious deeds."

Xia Houlan's face showed dissatisfaction.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Sun Jian is short of food and his troops have no fighting spirit. At this time, a sneak attack on Sun Jian's camp will definitely succeed.

It's just that Hua Xiong asked Qin Shou to stay at Sishui Pass, obviously because he didn't want Qin Shou to make military exploits.

"Do you think Sun Jian can't think of the problem you can think of? They have been short of food for more than a day or two. Sun Jian must have sent someone to collect food. But this person has been on the battlefield for a long time and must know the current situation. A battlefield veteran, How could you not know?"

Qin Shou said quietly.

"My lord, are you saying that this is a trap?" Xia Houlan's eyes lit up.

"The general's words suddenly enlightened the general. Sun Jian is known as the Tiger of Jiangdong, and he must know this. I'm afraid Hua Xiong will be fooled this time." Zhang Liao suddenly realized.

"Hua Xiong was fooled, but it doesn't mean that Sun Jian will win." Qin Shou suddenly said: "Hua Xiong can't be defeated, it doesn't mean that I can't defeat him. Send the order, light a bonfire in front of the pass, and wait until the defeated army arrives, let him stay in the city Camp outside.”

"Huh, Sun Jian only has so many men. Even if Hua Xiong is defeated, he won't lose many soldiers and horses. The only possibility is that the other party wants to take the opportunity to sneak attack on Sishui Pass. This time I want to see who comes to sneak through the pass."

Qin Shou laughed.

Zhang Liao and Xia Houlan looked at each other with admiration on their faces.

At that moment, people quickly lit a bonfire under the pass, lighting up the entire front of Sishui Pass as if it were daytime.

Sure enough, a group of broken soldiers came flying over soon.

"General, open the city gate quickly. General Hua Xiong failed to attack the camp and was ambushed by Sun Jian. General Hua Xiong is injured. General, please open the city gate quickly."

"Open the city gate quickly!"

"Let us in quickly."

……

There was a roar from below the city, and even in the darkness in the distance, there were screams and sounds of pursuit, making the soldiers below the city even more frightened.

"General." On the city wall, Zhang Liao and Xia Houlan looked at Qin Shou.

"Tsk tsk, we actually found someone with a Liangzhou accent. This Sun Jian is really not that simple."

"Haha, listen to the traitors below the city, it's Xiahou Dun of a certain family! I'm following the orders of my lord to seize this pass."

In the surprised eyes of the two people, Qin Shou suddenly laughed.

"My lord?"

After hearing this, Xia Houlan's face suddenly showed a strange look.

The expressions of the soldiers under the city changed drastically after hearing this.

Suddenly, a general appeared out of the crowd, holding an iron whip in his hand.

Who is it if it’s not Huang Gai?

"General Xiahou, a certain Huang Gai, came to deceive the city on the orders of my lord. Unexpectedly, the general took it first. He also asked the general to open the city gate and let us in."

Huang Gai's voice came.

"Huang Gongfu, do you think this general is Hua Xiong? How can you hide this little plan from me?"

Qin Shou on the city wall laughed.

"It's true that Sun Jian is short of food. It's true that he wanted to use this strategy to ambush Hua Xiong. It's true that you came here to cheat. It's a pity that he met me, Qin Yilu."

Qin Shou's voice was full of pride.

"You." Huang Gai suddenly changed his color after hearing this.

"Fire arrows!"

In an instant, countless sharp arrows shot through the air, and screams suddenly came from under the city wall.

"Get out quickly, get out quickly."

Huang Gai was furious in his heart, and while waving his iron whip, he ordered the army to retreat.

"The general's divine calculation will be admired by all generals."

Zhang Liao's eyes shone.

"What's this? I'm even more powerful!"

"Wenyuan, you lead 300 men to guard the pass for the time being. I will pursue Huang Gai and attack Sun Jian."

Qin Shou laughed.

"General?"

Zhang Liao's expression changed after hearing this.

"Huaxiong's sneak attack must have failed. At this time, they may have been defeated. I will go to take care of one or two. If I get the chance, I will launch another sneak attack."

"Sun Jian would never have thought that we would launch a sneak attack for the second time. In this case, Sun Jian would be defeated."

Qin Shou patted the battlements on the city wall and said.

Zhang Liao and Xia Houlan looked horrified after hearing this.

They were thinking about themselves and what arrangements they would make if they encountered such a situation.

After thinking about it for a long time, I also thought that I would be tricked.

No one would have thought that after the enemy's sneak attack failed once, he would launch a second sneak attack.

"General, I admire you."

Zhang Liao was immediately convinced after hearing this.

"Walk."

Qin Shou laughed and was very proud.

If you still can't convince Zhang Liao, it means you are too incompetent.
