The Rebellious Officials and Traitors of the Late Han Dynasty

Chapter 28 General, please attack again

Hua Xiong led the army to kill Sun Jian's camp.

He saw two soldiers leaning on the camp gate, as if they were sleeping. There was not even a patrol in the camp, but there were many soldiers leaning against the campfire to keep warm.

"It is said that Sun Jian is the fierce tiger of Jiangdong, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that." He said to Li Su beside him.

"Kwantung rats, the war has not broken out yet, but they are already scheming. They can't even allocate food and grass in time. The army has no fighting spirit!" Zhao Cen chuckled at the side and said: "It's our turn to make a contribution today."

"kill!"

Hua Xiong waved his sword and commanded the army to rush in.

With a wave of his hand, he killed the soldiers in front of the camp gate very easily, without even a scream from the other party.

Hua Xiong was surprised. Could it be that his strength had increased a lot.

But this thought quickly disappeared. On the battlefield, I couldn't allow myself to think too much. The camp gate in front had been opened, and the army rushed in. Some soldiers even killed the enemies near the campfire.

However, under this situation, there was still no movement in the camp.

"No. I was fooled."

By the light of the fire, Hua Xiong saw that the soldier he had killed was actually a scarecrow, and he immediately knew that he had been fooled and that there was a trap in front of him.

"Retreat quickly, retreat quickly!"

"Dong dong!"

There were loud noises, and in the darkness, countless rockets were fired from the rear camp. Behind the army, there were loud shouts of killing, and countless soldiers came out of the darkness, endless, and no one knew how many there were.

"Hua Xiong, you have been fooled."

Sun Jian galloped over on his war horse, his ancient ingot sword flashing with cold light, and beheaded a soldier.

Han Dang and Cheng Pu also came from all directions to kill.

Seeing that they had been fooled, the Xiliang army was panicked. They heard shouts of killing from all directions. They didn't know how many enemies there were. For a moment, the soldiers had no intention of fighting. They were in chaos. They just wanted to escape from here immediately. How could they think of killing the enemy.

This situation is very normal. The Xiliang army is undisciplined. Hua Xiong himself is panicked and only thinks about escaping. He has no intention of resisting, and the same is true for his subordinates.

That's why Sun Jian was asked to make great achievements and lead the army to attack everywhere and kill the Xiliang army.

If Hua Xiong fights to the death, Sun Jian may not be able to defeat the opponent. After all, Hua Xiong's army has a numerical advantage.

Unfortunately, Hua Xiong was not a good commander. After being ambushed, his first reaction was to run away.

The army was in chaos.

"Catch up and seize the opportunity to seize Sishui Pass. Maybe the public coup will be successful at this time."

Sun Jian did not hesitate to lead his army in pursuit.

He wants to capture Sishui Pass and show it to his allies.

When Hua Xiong heard the shouts of killing from behind, he felt very aggrieved. He excitedly killed him, thinking that he could make a great contribution, and even asked Qin Shou to stay behind, not wanting to share the credit. Unexpectedly, stealing the chicken will lose the rice.

"General, there are enemies ahead!"

Suddenly a soldier exclaimed loudly.

Hua Xiong looked around and saw brightly lit lights and fires in front of him. There were countless soldiers standing there, and his expression suddenly changed.

"My life is over!"

"General, he is the Commander of the Flying Cavalry."

Li Su saw it clearly, with an ecstatic expression on his face.

"It's really Qin Yilu!"

Hua Xiong also found a person in front of him, holding a sword in his hand. It was Qin Yilu. He was suddenly saved from danger and shouted loudly:
"It's reinforcements, our reinforcements are coming."

When the soldiers who were crumbling behind them heard that reinforcements were coming from the front, their faces showed joy.

"Get out of the way." Qin Shou waved his hand and let go of the road, allowing the defeated troops to pass.

"Yi Lu, thank you for saving my life."

Hua Xiong rushed over with a look of shame on his face. What I did this time was not authentic.

"General Hua, Sun Jian asked Huang Gai to deceive the city. I knew something was wrong. After repelling Huang Gai, I hurriedly came to rescue the general."

Qin Shou immediately told Huang Gai about the deception of the city.

Hua Xiong felt cold sweat on his back after hearing this. He really couldn't imagine what would happen once Huang Gai defrauded Sishui Pass.

Although Sishui Pass is not suitable for large troop marches, if it falls into the hands of the Kwantung Allied Forces and the gates of Luoyang are opened, Dong Zhuo will not be able to save his life if he is pursued.

"Brother Xian saved my life this time."

Hua Xiong said gratefully.

"The general is laughing. You and I are now ministers in the same palace. We both work for the prime minister, so naturally we have to help each other."

Qin Shou said nonchalantly.

In fact, he also thought that Hua Xiong was killed by Sun Jian, and he could take advantage of the opportunity to control an army of tens of thousands.

Unfortunately, Sun Jian failed to help and allowed Hua Xiong to escape.

However, Qin Shou is not disappointed either. Sooner or later, this person will become the second brother Guan, and he will receive the lunch box soon, so there is no need to worry too much.

It was not that he had never thought about conquering a fierce general like Hua Xiong, but the Xiliang generals were loyal to Dong Zhuo. Unless Dong Zhuo died, it was still possible, otherwise it would be almost impossible.

"It's all this damn Sun Jian, I will kill him sooner or later."

Hua Xiong thought of Sun Jian. If it weren't for Sun Jian, he wouldn't be in such a miserable state.

"General, if you want to take revenge on Sun Jian, why wait until sooner or later? Just tonight."

Qin Shou said suddenly.

"Ah! Tonight?" Hua Xiong suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "Xian brother, our army is defeated, how can we defeat Sun Jian?"

"Although the general suffered a small defeat, the main force did not suffer much loss. Although Sun Jian won a small victory, it is a fact that they were short of food and grass. They were hungry and thirsty during the fighting. We are cavalry and still have some strength left."

"Second, general, you defeated the enemy's first wave of sneak attacks. Did you think that the enemy would have a second wave of attacks?"

Qin Shou said quietly.

Hua Xiong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he patted his thigh and said, "My dear brother, this is a wonderful plan. If you follow my wise brother's plan, Sun Jian will be defeated this time."

He immediately reorganized his defeated troops and prepared for the second attack.

Sun Jian, who was chasing Hua Xiong, soon learned that there were soldiers and horses ahead to meet Hua Xiong, so he had to withdraw his troops and return to the camp.

Simply put, tonight not only defeated Hua Xiong, but also captured many war horses and weapons, which was considered a great victory.

Only after returning to the camp did he see Huang Gai who had returned from defeat.

"I didn't expect that there are actually capable people in the Xiliang army. I just don't know who found out about this. If it is Qin Shou, it is not good news for us."

"What my lord said is true. Qin Shou is highly skilled in martial arts and cunning. He is a formidable enemy." Cheng Pu also nodded.

"The simple fact is that we won a small victory today. After taking a rest tomorrow, we will retreat and I will go find Yuan Shu personally. The soldiers have worked hard tonight, so go back and rest!"

Sun Jian's eyes flashed with cold light. If Yuan Shu hadn't seized his food and grass, how could he be so embarrassed?

"Yes."

Han Dang and others quickly retreated after hearing this.

Soon, after some injured soldiers groaned in pain, the camp returned to peace.
