"Reporting to the leader of the alliance, something bad has happened. The forward army has been defeated and has now begun to retreat!" The princes were drinking and having fun, when a blood-stained pawn suddenly ran in.
In the coalition tent, Yuan Shao suddenly received such a message, and was shocked. He did not expect that the brave and capable Jiangdong Tigers were defeated. At this time, Yuan Shao no longer cared about what was in the cup, and immediately asked hurriedly
, "But the reinforcements from the bandit army have arrived."
"Here, leader, the enemy's reinforcements have not arrived yet." The soldier replied honestly.
"Then how did Sun Wentai lose?" Yuan Shao asked angrily again. If the enemy's reinforcements arrived, it would be a defeat. But now that the enemy's reinforcements have not arrived, it is a matter of ability.
And following the pawn's narration, all the princes in the tent finally figured out the truth of the matter.
Although there was no Yuan Shu to trick Sun Jian in terms of food and grass this time, Sun Jian's forward army was still defeated in the end.
When he first arrived at Hulao Pass, Sun Jian had the intention to lower the morale of the enemy through fighting. However, due to his lack of strength, he failed to show off and was fooled instead. Not only did he not dampen the morale of the enemy, but his own side suffered due to the fighting.
Will fail and lose morale.
Especially after Zhang Hao was defeated one after another, and Deng Qiang became the leader again, the morale of the vanguard army led by Sun Jian, Tao Qian and others was completely hit the bottom. In this state, even if Sun Jian wanted to forcefully launch an attack, the soldiers
Even fighting in the city is impossible.
In desperation, Sun Jian had no choice but to confront Dong Zhuo's army in Hulao Pass, preparing to make another move later.
Unexpectedly, after such a long time, Fu Jian finally took advantage of the loophole, and a night attack directly led to a huge defeat in the first battle.
Let’s not talk about Qiao Mao and Bao Xin for now. Sun Jian is a famous general in the world and was born in the army. Zhao Kuangyin, who was under Tao Qian, was also a leading general before he took on the imperial robe. These two people naturally know how to strengthen their vigilance to prevent the enemy from attacking at night.
.
But the people above pay attention to it, but it doesn't mean that the people below will implement it 100%. Those soldiers and lower-level officers don't know much about the art of war. In their opinion, they have been on guard for several days, but the enemy has never done anything.
Launching a sneak attack or something like that is probably not going to happen.
When I think about it like this, I can't help but relax my vigilance!
At this time, Fu Jian seized the opportunity in time and sent Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao to lead troops out of the pass to attack at night.
Previously, Fu Jian had only sent Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao to challenge the formation, and did not do anything else. In addition to deliberately damaging the morale of the coalition forces, he also had the idea of paralyzing the morale of the coalition forces.
Obviously, Fu Jian's idea was successful. Although Sun Jian and Zhao Kuangyin still maintained a high degree of vigilance, the people below were almost herding sheep without them noticing.
Moreover, Fu Jian's strategy for the surprise attack was also well laid out. Through observation during this period, Fu Jian discovered that the elite soldiers of Qiao Mao and Bao Xin were obviously not at the same level as those of Tao Qian and Sun Jian.
Therefore, Fu Jian carried out a feint attack on Tao Qian and Sun Jian, and then attacked Qiao Mao and Bao Xin. As a result, under the charge led by two peerless generals, Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao, Qiao Mao and Bao Xin
As expected, the army under his command was killed and routed, and even Qiao Mao, one of the princes in the alliance to fight against Dong, died in the rebellion.
However, Fu Jian's night attack method had both advantages and disadvantages. Fu Jian did beat Qiao Mao and Bao Xin terribly, but the damage to Tao Qian and Sun Jian was limited.
The force of the attack was not very strong, so Zhao Kuangyin and Sun Jian were given enough time to react.
Although in the eyes of future generations it may have hurt the two minor players Qiao Mao and Bao Xin, it would be a pity to let go of Sun Jian and Zhao Kuangyin.
But Dong Zhuo didn't think so. Fu Jian not only defended Hulao Pass as solid as a rock under the allied forces, but also killed all the princes. This is definitely a talent!
"Hahaha, okay, Yonggu, good job! You really gave our family a big surprise. We haven't even arrived yet, and you just killed one of the twenty-two princes. Tell me.
, we can give you any reward you want!" Inside Hulao Pass, Dong Zhuo, who had just arrived with his troops, said with a smile as he received such great news as soon as he entered the gate.
"It is my duty to kill enemies for the Prime Minister. How can I dare to ask for a reward from my lord?" Fu Jian's eyes showed a hint of heat, but he replied calmly.
"Hahaha, okay, Yonggu, our family appreciates you as a loyal minister, unlike those white-eyed wolves from the princes outside the pass. However, since you have made such great contributions, our family has to reward you. Our family
I will first grant you a third-level promotion, a thousand taels of gold, and ten beauties." Dong Zhuo said excitedly.
"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your gift." Fu Jian replied with a face full of joy. But if someone carefully observes Fu Jian's eyes at this time, they will find that Hua Jian's eyes seem to be full of excitement, but the depths of his eyes are like a pool of stagnant water.
Quiet, without any disturbance.
"Deng Qiang, Zhang Hao, you two have also done a very good job. You are indeed our Liangzhou athletes. You have displayed the majesty of our Xiliang Army and made great contributions. Our family should also reward you. Let's do it."
Our family will give you an official promotion and a hundred taels of gold." Dong Zhuo then turned to the two mighty men in the hall and said happily.
"Thank you so much, Prime Minister." After hearing Dong Zhuo's words of reward, Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao stood up and bowed in unison.
"My lord, now that General Fu Jian has defeated the enemy army, the Kwantung Allied soldiers are very sad. Our army should take advantage of this opportunity and take advantage of the situation to go to war." Li Ru, Dong Zhuo's confidant, once again locked Hulao. What happened these days
After sorting things out, he immediately came out and suggested something.
"Yes, my lord, what Mr. Wen You said makes sense. Before, our army only had two generals, Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao, and they were able to defeat the Kwantung Allied Forces. Now, our army has all the generals here, including Wu
Invincible characters like General and General Lu should take the initiative to attack! If we can take the opportunity to kill a few enemy generals, we can definitely make the enemy afraid before they fight!" After Li Ru, Qin Hui also suggested.
, refreshed his sense of presence.
"Hahaha, okay, if that's the case, then our family will personally lead an army to fight against those rebels." Dong Zhuo thought for a moment, and then said.
"My lord is wise." Li Ru and Qin Hui hurriedly stood up and paid their respects.
"By the way, my son, please remember to put on the heads of those rebellious members of the Yuan family. This time we have to give a big gift to Yuan Benchu and Yuan Gongliu!" Dong Zhuo seemed to have suddenly remembered something, with a cold look on his face.
