Three Kingdoms: I will act as a substitute for the Hunjun

Chapter 128 Ding Yuan and Sun Jian fall into the trap, Hua Xiong and Xu Rong kill him

"How can a general be so forward-thinking?!" Suddenly a loud voice sounded, and when everyone looked, it was Ding Yuan who was covered in armor.

Ding Yuan slapped the sword on his waist, widened his eyes and said, "Dong Zhuo has no reinforcements and no supplies. He is already at the end of his war effort and must really retreat. Yuan Situ can defend the city here. Let's see how I, Bingzhou Erlang, kill the enemy." !”

As he spoke, he turned around and went to the pass to gather the soldiers and horses of Bingzhou.

Yuan Wei opened his mouth several times, but finally did not stop him. His position at Hangu Pass was very awkward. He was not the commander-in-chief, but the supervisor of the army.

He can coordinate, but the command of troops and horses is not under his control.

What's more, he himself is not familiar with military affairs, and the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong are far apart.

There were the original garrison troops, the Xiyuan Army brought by Yuan Shao, the Runan Army brought by Yuan Shu, and Sun Jian's Changsha Army. The most powerful group was the Bingzhou Army led by Ding Yuan.

Yuan Wei just instinctively felt that there must be fraud in what Dong Zhuo did, but he couldn't explain the problem himself, so he couldn't convince these powerful generals at all.

While hesitating, another voice sounded:

"I, Changsha Erlang, are not just for a living!" Sun Jian shouted and turned around to go down the Pass.

"Uncle, are we, the Yuan family, the only ones left here to make a living?" Yuan Shu couldn't help but say.

Yuan Wei snorted coldly and glared, so frightened that Yuan Shu shrank his neck and did not dare to speak any more.

Yuan Shao stood nearby and said nothing, but it could be seen from his expression that he was not convinced either.

The door was quickly opened, and Ding Yuan and Sun Jian led their soldiers and horses to rush out. Without any extra maneuvers, while Dong Jun was packing up his equipment, they rushed directly into the camp and started killing.

Dong Zhuo's soldiers were still immersed in the joy of leaving this ghost place. When they were suddenly attacked, they immediately reacted, dropped their weapons and ran away.

Ding Yuan and Sun Jian chased him all the way behind. Dong Jun's corpse fell to the ground in a mess, and pools of blood dyed the snow red.

"Uncle, look, Dong Jun doesn't seem to be cheating." Yuan Shu, who was in Guancheng, saw it and immediately became anxious. "They are really killing people, and there are so many dead. Please allow the boy to go out to kill the enemy and perform meritorious service."

"If you all go down, who will guard the gate?" Yuan Wei said with a dark face.

He also saw clearly the battle situation in Guanxia. Dong Zhuo's army was completely unprepared. They were killed by Ding Yuan and Sun Jian and fled in all directions, fleeing from the front camp to the rear camp.

In the rear camp, troops and baggage were already evacuating in an orderly manner, and it really didn't look like there was any fraud.

Ding Yuan and Sun Jian pursued the Chinese army. The Chinese army's tent there had been dismantled, even the flags had been moved away, and there were not many soldiers and horses stationed there.

So they fought all the way to the back camp.

"This time our Yuan family doesn't even have food to eat." Yuan Shu muttered, "We can only drink from the northwest wind."

As soon as he finished speaking, gongs and horns suddenly sounded in Dong's camp, and dense soldiers poured out from the tent and behind the barriers, surrounding the Bingzhou Army and Changsha Army in a frantic attack.

The leading general is Hua Xiong, the first general in Dong Zhuo's army.

The officers and soldiers have suffered a lot in the hands of others. They are brave and good at fighting and are almost unbeatable.

Yuan Wei took a breath of air, but he was still being plotted by Dong Jun despite all precautions.

Dong Zhuo himself did not have such wisdom, and the officers and soldiers had already found out clearly that Dong Jun had a think tank named Li Ru, who was full of tricks and used ruthless tactics.

Yuan Wei hated and feared Dong Zhuo. He originally regarded him as his disciple and former official, but he didn't expect that the other party didn't take him seriously at all. He directly raised troops to stab Lou Zi and even fought with him.

However, judging from the fact that so many sergeants dared to die as bait, the ambush must have been set up by Li Ru.

"Highway, you can lead the troops out this time." Yuan Wei ordered while watching the battle below.

Yuan Shu also saw clearly what happened below, and he was glad that he did not rush out to kill him. But now that Yuan Wei said this, he thought it was his uncle who was trying to trick him.

"It's good to drink the northwest wind in the city, it's better than going down and dying." Yuan Shu said with a smile.

After spending such a long time together in Hangu Pass, he had long been unhappy with Ding Yuan and Sun Jian, so it would be good to take the opportunity to kill them.

"I want you to get out of seclusion quickly and go to the rescue!" Yuan Wei yelled angrily, shocking Yuan Shu.

"This..." Yuan Shu hesitated and said, "The thieves' army is powerful..."

"I haven't seen Dong Zhuo after fighting for so long. I can't rule out that the Dong thieves have really withdrawn." At this time, Yuan Shao finally spoke, saying, "Hua Xiong's army may just be a rear-end unit that wants to rescue Ding Yuan and Ding Yuan. It's not difficult for Sun Jian, let me go!"

As he spoke, Yuan Shao flicked his cloak, pressed his sword, and entered the pass.

"Hmph, what's the air!" Yuan Shu snorted coldly, but in the end he did not dare to lead his troops into battle.

He was already frightened by Hua Xiong. When he first came to Hangu Pass, Yuan Shu relied on the bravery of his general Ji Ling to kill the enemy general Li Meng and Wang Fang. He was also very impressive at that time.

As a result, when Hua Xiong came out, Ji Ling was defeated and half of Yuan Shu's helmet was cut off, almost decapitating his head. From then on, he never dared to face Hua Xiong again.

There is already a psychological shadow.

Yuan Shao led two thousand troops out of Hangu Pass and rushed into Dong's camp. Only then did he notice that it was not only Hua Xiong who was commanding the ambush, but also Xu Rong, another general under Dong Zhuo's command.

But the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. Yuan Shao bravely fought through the siege, rescued Ding Yuan and Sun Jian, fought and retreated, and reached the Hangu Pass.

The tide of defeated troops generally flows towards the gate, but the gates of the passes are usually smaller than the gates of normal cities and cannot allow so many people to pass through.

"Line up behind the city! Line up to meet the enemy!" Sun Jian, who was rich in combat experience, shouted loudly while holding up the ancient ingot sword.

When Ding Yuan heard this, he knew that this was the best way at present, and he also shouted together: "Line up behind the city! Line up behind the city!"

Above the city gate, Yuan Wei hurriedly shouted: "Archers, shoot far away to prevent Dong Jun from approaching!"

Suddenly arrows rained down, densely packed into the air, and fell towards Dong Jun who was pursuing him.

In order to show that he was not just an idler, Yuan Shu also took out his bow and arrow, picked up the bow and arrow himself, and shot a small enemy leader.

Xu Rong and Hua Xiong saw it and hurriedly stopped their pursuit.

In fact, just as Yuan Shao judged, Dong Zhuo had already led the army away, and the two of them were left behind to protect the rear army.

If you can ambush a group of officers and soldiers, it can be regarded as hunting rabbits. Unexpectedly, you will gain a lot.

They admired Li Ru even more.

It's just that there are too few people now to storm Hangu Pass, nor can they eat all the officers and soldiers who leave the pass.

Yuan Wei made a rough estimate and found that the officers and soldiers would lose more than 2,000 people when they were ambushed this time, which was a heavy loss.

"Haha, you guys can shoot arrows, but we can't shoot arrows?" Xu Rong snorted coldly, raised his gun in the air, and said loudly: "shoot arrows!"

Dong Zhuo's army often fought with the Xiqiang, so riding and shooting were his basic tactical qualities.

Hua Xiong reacted as soon as he heard this, frowned and shouted: "Yes, shoot the arrow! Shoot the arrow quickly!" Suddenly the arrows flew into the sky densely. If they were not aimed at Guancheng, they would not be able to shoot at the current distance. , but it was able to shoot at the officers and soldiers at the pass.

At this moment, the officers and soldiers themselves were huddled together, losing their helmets and armor as they fled for their lives, and some even lost their weapons. They were unable to stop the rain of arrows from the sky.

puff! puff! puff! puff……

The sounds of sharp weapons piercing flesh could be heard loudly, and screams could be heard one after another.

The officers and soldiers fell one after another.

Dong Jun was like harvesting leeks, and he was doing it with his eyes closed. With such a dense crowd, there was no need to aim at all, and he could shoot accurately.

Immediately at the foot of Hangu Pass, corpses were lying on top of each other, and blood flowed into a river.

Yuan Wei closed the door and felt his heart bleeding.

"Don't crowd in front of the closed door, disperse!" Yuan Shao shouted loudly, and everyone realized that if they were crowded together and they were not shot to death, they would be squeezed to death by their own people, and they hurriedly dispersed instinctively.

"You can grab the corpse to block the arrow!" Sun Jian's general Huang Gai shouted loudly. This is also a ruthless person.

Everyone woke up and hurriedly moved the corpses in front of them. Some had no time to move the corpses, so they grabbed the comrades next to them and blocked them in front of them.

This is exactly what a dead Taoist friend does but a poor Taoist.

In the end, Xu Rong and Hua Xiong's troops shot all the arrows they carried, and the officers and soldiers escaped the disaster, climbed out of the pile of corpses, and fled back to Hangu Pass.

During this expedition, I originally wanted to take advantage of Dong Zhuo's withdrawal to catch the enemy by surprise. Unexpectedly, he was killed and almost the entire army was wiped out. The official army lost more than 4,000 people.

"If anyone talks about fighting from now on, behead him!" Yuan Wei looked at the scene in Guanxia that was like Shura hell, and shouted angrily, "If anyone talks about war again, behead! Behead! Behead! Do you hear me!"

Ding Yuan, Sun Jian and Yuan Shao were all covered in blood. They stood there silently, but it could be seen that their whole bodies were trembling. It was unclear whether they were frightened or tired.

"I know Dong Zhuo very well and know that there must be a deceit in this, but you just don't listen." Yuan Wei continued to scold, "Now that we have lost our troops and our generals, and you have almost lost your lives, why are you still going out? It's not good to live in the pass. Really? You just want to go out and die?"

Everyone continued to be silent.

Winner or loser, they went their own way and ended up in such a disastrous defeat. They had nothing to complain about and could only accept Yuan Wei's scolding.

Everyone spent the night in fear. When they looked back at Guanxia the next morning, they saw that Dong Ying had completely disappeared without leaving a single soldier behind. He had disappeared overnight.

Yuan Wei hurriedly sent out scouting horses to inquire, and the last news he reported back was that Dong Zhuo led a large group of troops to cross the Yellow River to the east while the Yellow River was frozen.

"Hedong?" Yuan Wei frowned, "Isn't there a riot of Baibo bandits in Hedong? What is Dong Zhuo doing there? With their current state of poverty, they should avoid these thieves, right?"

However, no one answered his questions.

The information he had here was mainly concentrated on Dong Zhuo and had not been spread to other places. He did not know the latest movements of the Baibo bandits.

"The Dong thief was defeated by us and fled, uncle, do you want to report the victory to Your Majesty?" Yuan Shutian said shamelessly.

Everyone looked at Yuan Shu, whose face was not red and his heart was not beating, and they didn't know how to comment.

Only Yuan Shu remained calm and composed, as if that was how things should be.

After a long time, Ding Yuan said: "There is no need to write down that we were defeated. However, we can report to His Majesty that Dong Zhuo could not attack for a long time and had insufficient supplies, so he retreated to the east of Hedong."

Yuan Wei thought for a while and felt that he felt more at ease with the same thing. He was about to write a report to the emperor when he suddenly received news from Luoyang.

It was sent by someone sent by Jian Shuo. When I opened it, I found that it was a copy of His Majesty the Emperor's edict. The content was about how the Emperor defeated the Baibo bandits and the Black Mountain bandits in Hanoi.

"This is a huge defeat..." Yuan Shu stopped talking.

If it weren't for people talking too much, if it was just the Yuan family, he would definitely have spoken out the suspicions in his heart.

Is he reliable for this big defeat? Could it be the same routine as what Yuan said just now about defeating the Dong thieves?

Yuan Wei glared at Yuan Shu and said: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful! With the help of Zhu Jun and Gai Xun, isn't it easy to defeat a few thieves? Do you have any questions?"

Ding Yuan looked at it and said, "Well, he is wise and powerful."

"Wait a minute, the Baibo bandits entered Hanoi from Hedong?" Yuan Wei said in surprise.

He did not know that the Bai Bo Army entered Hanoi in batches. When Liu Ming's edict mentioned that they had defeated the Bai Bo Army, he thought that the main force of the Bai Bo Army was there.

However, it can be regarded as an accident. In the later period, Guo Tai actually led the main force of the Baibo Army into Hanoi, and even the Huns' cavalry, with the purpose of capturing Liu Ming, the dog emperor.

"No wonder Dong Zhuo wants to go to Hedong." Sun Jian said thoughtfully, "Once Bai Bo's main force leaves, Hedong is empty and there are no officers and soldiers, which is perfect for Dong's thieves to gain a foothold."

"Is Thief Dong also targeting His Majesty?" Ding Yuan said to himself.

Yuan Wei was startled when he heard the army trembling suddenly. He quickly spread out the map and glanced at it a few times, and said: "I will give your majesty a watch immediately to remind your majesty to be careful about Dong Zhuo."

After speaking, he turned around and entered the closed tower. Yuan Shao studied the ink himself.

Ding Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I want to write a letter to the Central Government, allowing me to lead troops to Hanoi to escort you."

"Write a letter to the court?" Sun Jian asked doubtfully, "Isn't your majesty in Hanoi? If you lead troops to escort him, you should ask your majesty directly. Is there anyone in the court who can help you make a decision?"

Sun Jian didn't know the details of the current dynasty, so he was very puzzled by Ding Yuan's actions.

Ding Yuan did not explain, but immediately wrote a letter and gave it to the messenger who came to deliver the letter, saying: "This letter must be delivered to General Jian."

The messenger agreed and turned around.

Only then did Sun Jian realize that Ding Yuan was asking Jian Shuo for instructions.

So he curled his lips in disdain and kept his distance.

Ding Yuan was not angry and said with a smile: "I led the troops to Beijing this time, and I was to escort them. Now that Dong Zhuo has retreated and His Majesty is in Hanoi, it is reasonable for me to go to escort him. Wentai (characterized by Sun Jian) ​​can be It’s different, you came here to guard the gate under orders.”

Sun Jian was furious for a moment.

As the saying goes, there is no greater skill than escorting. If you can stay with the emperor, your future will be limitless.

But Sun Jian couldn't follow Jian Shuo's path, because he was Yuan Wei's man.

"Mr. Yuan, look..." Sun Jian hesitated and said, "Dong's thieves have retreated, shouldn't Sun also go to protect him?"
