Chapter 54
Hua Xiong seized an opportunity and used the spear in his hand to shave off the long knife in Bao Zhong's hand. Without any hesitation, he grabbed the long knife that Bao Zhong had dropped. Holding the handle of the knife, he slashed Bao Zhong with a backhand blow. Get off your horse.

Looking at Bao Zhong who was already lying on the ground with his eyes open, Hua Xiong felt his physical condition and his mentality seemed to be back to the past, but it was not enough, not enough for him to take the final step.

"General Hua Xiong, retreat quickly." Zhao Cen, at this time, had also led his soldiers to rush out of Sishui Pass and quickly brought the victorious Hua Xiong back to the pass.

As for Hu Zhen himself, he directly ran into Cheng Pu, even if he had the idea of ​​​​delaying his life to delay time, he was not strong enough.

Hu Zhen and Cheng Pu were so disparate in strength that they couldn't even use a single move. Cheng Pu stabbed Hu Zhen under his horse with the iron-spine snake spear in his hand, killing him on the spot.

Hua Xiong reacted and was about to lead the soldiers to avenge his brother, but Zhao Cen led the soldiers to force Hua Xiong back and pulled him back to Sishui Pass.

Sun Jian led his soldiers, and after defeating Dong Zhuo's soldiers outside Sishui Pass, he tried to attack Sishui Pass by force, but failed to capture it.

They had no choice but to stay away from Sishui Pass and set up camp. They told Yuan Shu the location of the camp and informed Yuan Shu to make arrangements and transport grain and grass to this place.

After all, they were traveling lightly and quickly, and the food and grass they brought was only enough for a few days. Now that they had found out the information and had set up camp, the remaining food and grass should come from the coalition camp.

Hua Xiong came to the tower of Sishui Pass angrily, looked at Li Su, and said in a very deep tone, "Then Sun Jian only has [-] soldiers, so what reason do we have to withdraw our troops? As a result, my brother died at the hands of Sun Jian."

"General Hua, we do have more soldiers in the pass than Sun Jian, but Sun Jian's soldiers appeared too suddenly. Our soldiers in the pass have not yet been assembled. We can only inform you to retreat in a hurry." Li Su had no choice. It's not just one or two people, it's a whole army of [-] people. If it can be easily assembled at will, it can still be used for defense here.

Pulled out directly to confront the coalition forces, the dead ones are definitely coalition forces. They were originally guarded by the border. In order to prevent accidents, even the places where the soldiers were arranged to live were not in the same place. It was closed for the convenience of support.

Why did this situation suddenly occur? The only way to get Hua Xiong back was because Hu Zhen led his soldiers and tried their best to stop Sun Jian.

After hearing this, Hua Xiong fell silent. He looked at the many soldiers behind the gate, and then at Sun Jianjun, who had failed to attack the city and was gradually retreating. He thought about his brothers who were delaying time for him.

"I know you are quite strategic. Can you think of a strategy for me? I want to kill him." Hua Xiong pointed in the direction of Sun Jian and stated his purpose without hesitation.

Li Su looked at Hua Xiong's current state and angry look, and wanted to say something, the general must not be angry and raise troops, but he opened his mouth, but in the end he did not say it.

Instead, he used his brain and thought hard about whether there was any way to kill Sun Jian.

Later, it was discovered that Sun Jian did not take away the bodies of Bao Xin's army, and he immediately reacted.

"General, I have a strategy." Li Su pointed to the many corpses outside the pass and said in a cautious tone, "Sun Jian has not collected the corpses for Bao Xin's army, which is enough to prove that there will be a gap among the coalition forces due to incompatibility, plus the spies. With the information that we have ascertained, we can bribe Yuan Shu's people to tell Yuan Shu and exaggerate Sun Jian's harm, thereby reducing or not supplying food to Sun Jian."

"How sure are you of this matter?" Hua Xiong looked at Li Su and asked, "What should we do if we fail?"

Li Su said calmly, "If it succeeds, Sun Jian will have no fighting power. If he fails, the loss will only be some money, and there is no harm to us." After hearing this, Hua Xiong nodded. No matter what the outcome will be, he can have a plan. , just give yourself something to do.

Afterwards, Li Su quickly arranged for people to hand over the prepared gold and silver to the lobbyists. As for this time, why not go alone?
Li Su still knew that going there was extremely dangerous and he couldn't take the risk.

After all, Li Su said that he didn't understand Yuan Shu's character, so he shouldn't take the risk.

Money played an unimaginable role. Under the lobbying of lobbyists, Yuan Shu's advisers agreed to this request. After all, it was in the interests of Yuan Shu's power to weaken this tiger as a neighbor.

Yuan Shu was also able to listen to his words. After being warned by his own advisers, he decisively cut off Sun Jian's food supply.

When Li Su received the results, he was a little surprised. It was incredible that things went smoothly.

Then he informed Hua Xiong without hesitation, how could he miss such a great opportunity?

"General Hua, what happened is just as I expected. There is discord among the coalition forces. Sun Jian's food and grass have been cut off. This matter must be accomplished." Li Su was really excited at this moment, and the credit was already in front of him. "Sun Jian's army only brought a few days of dry food. Now it must be out of food. It can be defeated in one battle."

"Then I'll assemble the army first." Hua Xiong didn't say much after hearing the information he wanted to hear, and immediately prepared to regroup his army.

"General, don't be so anxious. It's still early at this time. Please wait a little longer." Li Su pointed to the sun in the sky, indicating that it was still early.

"Then when will we set off?" Hua Xiong looked at the sun in the sky, puzzled, "At this time, my army can be seen. In this case, wouldn't it be better to attack Sun Jian?"

"General, there are no spies of Sun Jian outside Sishui Pass. Do you believe it?" Li Su pointed at the pass and looked at Hua Xiong and said, "No matter how stupid Sun Jian is, he will never make such a mistake."

Hua Xiong nodded after hearing this. He could do this kind of thing, and Sun Jian would definitely do the same. At this point, Hua Xiong had a full understanding of his own IQ.

"If we set off in the morning, Sun Jian will definitely receive the message and prepare for battle in advance. According to the distance, we will start fighting at noon. Although the enemy has little food and grass, and probably has little strength, facing the enemy troops marching in formation, Who knows what will happen." Li Su sighed lightly, and then said, "If we set off in the afternoon, even if Sun Jian receives the message, he has no food, and even if he wants to feed the soldiers, there is nothing he can do. Just set up camp, can Sun Jian escape with his soldiers in the middle of the night?"

"I understand. If I set off in the morning, Sun Jian will be able to escape, right? If we set off in the afternoon, Sun Jian won't be able to escape!" Hua Xiong's brain automatically filtered out the redundant information and integrated the key information.

Li Su was stunned after hearing this, and then nodded. As long as he listened, it didn't matter what the reason was.
