Chapter 592 Su Yao has a big appetite

"Lord Su, I think we should cross the river as soon as possible."

Guan Yu looked at Su Yao who was suddenly excited again, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him:
"We are alone in the deep, so it is not advisable to fight for a long time."

"Now that we have the ferry, we should evacuate immediately and return to the south bank."

Let’s talk about Guan Yu and Li Yi’s previous battle against Hu Huan. It was not an easy victory, but it was also effortless.

After defeating Hu Huan's troops, the ferry garrison of only a hundred people was no longer a problem and was easily captured by them.

At the same time, a total of 114 ferries were seized intact by him.

In Guan Yu's view, tonight was a great victory.

You know, just before setting off, everyone in their group thought that this was just a small-scale raid.

Their purpose was just to avenge Xu Rong's sneak attack on them and to strike a blow to the arrogance of the thief Dong.

However, they never expected that during that night, they not only wiped out all three Qujun generals under Dong Zhuo's general Hu Zhen in one fell swoop.

Moreover, this Lord Su also abducted more than 400 enemy soldiers, set fire to Luokou Warehouse and seized so many ferries.

Just before Su Yao arrived to meet up, Guan Yu had already inspected the 114 ferries.

Although a considerable number of them were confiscated civilian black-boat boats, on average each boat could carry nearly thirty soldiers.

In other words, this time they can not only take all the surrendered soldiers away in one go, but as long as they come back and find an opportunity, they can transport nearly 3,000 combat soldiers in one go to carry out a beach landing!
You know, the Luo River is not as dangerous as the Yellow River and the Yangtze River. The width of the river is just over a mile, and the banks are mostly flat, so you can land everywhere.

This was also one of the main reasons why he failed at that time.

Afterwards, Guan Yu also made a profound summary, and he was always looking forward to doing the same thing to Dong Ze on the opposite side.

However, he never thought that Su Yao's appetite was much bigger than he imagined.

"Yun Chang, don't worry."

Su Yao smiled and comforted Guan Yu, with a confident light flashing in his eyes:

"Although we have won a great victory tonight, we must win completely. We must fight with great force and scare the enemy into submission."

"These Dong troops on the north bank are obviously not convinced of our strength. If we can take this opportunity to give Hu Zhen a fatal blow and break his wings, it will be of great benefit to our future battles."

Guan Yu sighed:

"Your Excellency is right."

"Before you came, I also learned from Li Yi and others that Hu Zhen was born in Xiliang and came to the Central Plains because Dong Zhuo promised to recruit him."

"If we can kill him, not only will Dong Zhuo's current power be greatly weakened, but our army's reputation will also become a household name among the heroes of Xiliang."

"But, you have dealt him a heavy blow tonight, I am afraid he will not easily go out again."

"Besides, our actions have not been completely exposed yet, so we can still leave calmly by boat. If we delay for too long, the enemy army will react and block the ferry, and it will not be so easy for us to leave."

As soon as Guan Yu finished speaking, Li Yi and other officers nodded in agreement like woodpeckers, and advised Su Yao to leave quickly and quit while he was ahead to avoid any further complications.

However, Su Yao glanced at the map and smiled:
"You just don't understand."

Su Yao pointed at the map:
"Hu Zhen is a man born in the countryside. Although he is brave, his wisdom is not worth worrying about."

"We made him suffer such a great loss this time. He must be furious and eager for revenge. He must have come out in full force right now."

"As for us, we only need to set up an ambush here and wait for them to tire themselves out, and then we can achieve a great victory."

"After I kill Hu Zhen, there will be no organized enemy in the area west of Luopu Ferry that can hinder the landing."

"After we return, we can gather the army and launch a counterattack as soon as possible."

Su Yao's words stunned Li Yi and others.

My goodness, what's wrong with this Marquis Guanjun? He just came here, but why does he act as if he knows that adult better than Hu Zhen's subordinates?
Every word he spoke was so certain, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

What if he didn’t come?

If the delay continues for too long, what should we do if Dong Zhuo's warships come to blockade us?

People were talking at once, but Su Yao was too lazy to explain to them one by one, and said directly:

"Okay, I've made up my mind!"

"Yun Chang sent people to drive back all the extra ships and inform Lord Lu and Feng Xian to prepare for war."

"Let's quickly clean up here and get ready to chop!"

"Huh? Is the Champion Marquis stupid?"

"They actually took the ferry but didn't leave?"

It was a sunny morning. Hu Zhen, who was in the team, was in disbelief after receiving the report from the scout.

Just after setting out, on the way to the ferry, he had received more and more intelligence from the front line.

Hu Huan's troops were doomed, and the entire army was routed without any resistance.

A large number of soldiers fled back, unwillingly complaining about the enemy general's shamelessness.

The ferry was also destroyed. The soldiers guarding the ferry surrendered as a whole and handed over the ferry to the rebels.

After this series of bad news, Hu Zhen felt that his fate was doomed.

He had never suffered such a big loss since his debut. He was now considering whether he should slip away quietly to prevent Dong Zhuo from becoming desperate and executing him.

After all, even the usually tough-minded Hu Zhen found this defeat a little hard to understand.

Tragic, too tragic.

Get out of here, what the hell.

Wouldn’t it be nice to go back to Liangzhou and continue living the life of a mountain king?
Although it's windy and sandy there and the girl isn't pretty enough, I can sleep well without so many troubles!
However, who knew, just when Hu Zhen was hesitating and ready to abandon the mess and run away, the news from the front line shocked him.

Su Yao, that damn, unsportsmanlike bastard, didn't even run away after the sneak attack. Instead, he stayed at the ferry and sent boats to the south bank.

What’s the matter? Are you just staying here and planning to log in today?
"Isn't this Su a fool?"

"There is a chance, there is a chance!"

"Captain Hu, give the order. I want to go and avenge our guys!"

The soldiers under Hu Zhen's command shouted for battle.

Before their eyes, the situation became increasingly clear.

The scouts reported that there were no more than 200 people stationed at the ferry. Perhaps the rebel surnamed Su had never expected that their Captain Hu would be so decisive as to give up on putting out the fire and send his entire army forward.

In this round, they are one thousand four hundred to two hundred, which means I have the advantage. This is a good opportunity to avenge myself and take revenge.

Although Hu Zhen felt that something seemed amiss, he was ultimately infected by the passion of his men and thought this was a rare opportunity:

"Okay! Since Su Yao doesn't know whether to live or die, if I, Hu Zhen, don't teach him a profound lesson, how can I be worthy of the brothers who died under my command?"

After saying this, he suddenly drew his knife and shouted:
"Pass the order, we speed up and move forward. Not only must we take back the ferry, but we must also capture Su Yao alive to vent our hatred!"

Everyone listened to the order and roared in anger. Many of them even started to flatter him in advance, saying that Captain Hu was a very prompt decision-maker and they deserved this great achievement.

As a result, Hu Zhen's team was full of flags, and everyone was in high spirits, full of fighting spirit and high spirits. They wanted to seize the fleeting opportunity and take the lead, so they all quickened their pace.

On the official road, dust was flying and Hu Zhen's army was marching quickly in a long snake formation.

At this moment, suddenly, a burst of hurried horse hoof sounds came from afar, bringing a piece of news that shocked everyone.

"Report!!!"

"Captain Hu, something has happened - the front troops have been ambushed!"

"Champion Marquis, Su Yao is here!"

"what???"

In the central army, Hu Zhen, who was riding on his horse, was stunned.

He couldn't believe the news at all.

Didn’t the scouts say before that Marquis Guanjun and his men were camping at the ferry?

How could he be here now?
Unless he sets out at the same time as I do, that's simply impossible.

And the most important thing is, what kind of ambush was it?
"absurd!"

Hu Zhen subconsciously refuted immediately and didn't believe it at all.

You have to know that Luoyang is a basin. The road from Luobei Ferry to the capital is not completely flat, but it is all cultivated land that has been cultivated for a long time.

In such terrain, in broad daylight, how could we ambush him?
By mouth???
Hu Zhen seriously suspected that the scout had been up all night and was so tense that he mistook any slight movement for an ambush.

Then, the scout hurriedly shook his head, pointed ahead, and said tremblingly:

"It's really the Champion Hou who has arrived."

"It's unbelievable."

"He, he, he was alone, just riding his horse and stopped on the road ahead, claiming to be the champion Hou Suyao, and threatened, threatened to chop off your head."
