Big Joe, Little Joe loves me

Chapter 19 Sun Wu Is Not Monolithic

The so-called Taishici will not send troops if he does not come, is naturally a joke.

This time Liu Gan only left more than 9000 people to stick to his hometown in Moling, and with Zhou Tai as the vanguard, he dispatched a total of [-] troops, almost in full force.

However, Liu Gan's army had just set off, and when they visited Malai to report, they found Wu Jing's army thirty miles ahead!
When Liu Gan heard this, he panicked.

Wu Jing actually hit Moling first?

"Where's Sun Ce? Have you seen Sun Ce?"

Liu Gan asked involuntarily, for some reason, he has an inexplicable fear of this little overlord of Jiangdong.

The man who visited the horse replied: "There is a big banner with the characters of Sun. I don't know if it is Sun Ben or Sun Ce."

Hearing this, Liu Gan frowned involuntarily.

According to the scouts ahead, Wu Jing had more than [-] men, Sun Ben had more than [-] men, and Sun Ce had more than [-] men.

It would be fine for Liu Gan to deal with the above three troops one by one. The three troops together have no chance of winning. Even if there are only two troops, Liu Gan would not dare to take the risk of a battle.

Is this how to withdraw troops?
This is not Liu Gan's style!

Liu Gan took a deep breath and said in a cold voice, "Explore again, let me see clearly whether it is Sun Ce or Sun Ben who is here! How many enemy troops are there?"

"Here!" The scout went away in response.

"Whether you are Sun Ce or Sun Ben, since you have sent troops, there is absolutely no reason to go home halfway!" Liu Gan forced himself to calm down, waved his big hand to the sky, and shouted: "The whole army advances!"

The next moment, nine thousand people rushed away in mighty force.

Liu Gan has been hoarding troops in Moling for half a year, and he already knows the terrain here like the palm of his hand, and what matters in marching and fighting is the timing, location, and harmony of people.

Let’s talk about harmony first. Perhaps Liu Gan’s army does not have an absolute advantage in terms of strength, but Liu Gan is very confident in the soldiers he has trained. What’s more, out of the 9000 troops sent this time, 3000 are Danyang veterans. His individual combat ability is unmatched.

Talking about the location, Liu Gan sent people to carefully survey all the areas around Moling, and even asked the craftsmen to make a physical sand table.

Then the weather was fine, the sky was clear today, and the breeze was just right.

In the end, Liu Gan's army waited for work at ease, and could fight or retreat. The only thing that these nine thousand people lacked was a little lack of experience in the battlefield.

However, everyone in the world has a first time, no matter whether this battle is victory or defeat, life or death, Liu Gan has already made sufficient preparations in his heart.

Wu Jing is in the army.

Sun Ben rushed over on horseback in a hurry, and a cloud of dust rose behind him.

Seeing Wu Jing, he couldn't help tightening the reins of his horse, and stopped marching.

"Captain, the enemy is found ten miles ahead!"

Sun Ben patted his horse and came, pulled the rein, but did not dismount, and said loudly.

Wu Jing couldn't help squinting his eyes, looking into the distance, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything.

Wu Jing withdrew his gaze and said to Sun Ben who was profusely sweating, "How did you become a vanguard officer? After ten miles, you only found the enemy's traces?"

Sun Ben looked ashamed and said: "Our scouts are not very familiar with the terrain of this place, and it is inevitable to get lost."

On the side, Wu Jing's eldest son Wu Fen said with a smile: "I said Boyang, don't make excuses for your own people to be lazy, our Sun Wu family, who doesn't know that you know the Jiangdong cities like the back of your hand, otherwise why every time you fight , you are all pioneers?"

Seeing the eldest brother making fun of Sun Ben, Wu Qi, the youngest son of Wu Jing, couldn't help but said, "Brother, don't you understand, Boyang is changing his ways and doesn't want to be a pioneer, am I right?"

Sun Ben smiled wryly, thinking that these two little dolls would suffer a lot sooner or later.

Wu Jing asked, "Approximately how many people are there in the enemy army, and who will lead them?"

Sun Ben replied: "The number of enemy soldiers detected by the scouts is about [-]. In addition, similar marching footprints were found on the mountain road not far away, and the number is unknown. As for the leading generals, the banner is Zhang Liu. It should not be Liu. Yao himself."

Wu Jing couldn't help but fell into deep thought, and pondered: "How far is this place from Moling?"

Sun Ben thought for a while and replied, "It's about twenty miles away. If we take the mountain path, the journey can be shortened by half."

Wu Jingsi paid for a moment, and immediately gave orders: "Let's take the path."

Wu Fen persuaded: "Father commander, don't go on the trail, there are traces of enemy troops on the mountain road."

Wu Jing said coldly: "Of course I know, but our army has captured the Hengjiang Ferry for a long time, and it is impossible for Moling to have no news. However, he knows that our army is under pressure, and dares to send only 5000 people to guard the road. There must be fraud in this." , the traces in the mountain path must have been deliberately done by the enemy, just imagine if you were to ambush me, would you expose such obvious traces?"

After a pause, Wu Jing continued: "Therefore, the trails in the mountains must be safe. Furthermore, our army has rushed all the way, and we are exhausted and exhausted. We must rush to Moling as soon as possible to recuperate."

Wu Qi nodded in praise: "Father, commander-in-chief, I might as well wait."

Wu Jing laughed loudly, Wu Fen wanted to say something, but Wu Jing didn't give him a chance at all, so he had to give up at the moment.

Only Sun Ben stared at the mountain path where the army was heading in a daze. For some reason, he felt a little panicked in his heart.

Intuition reminded Sun Ben that this road cannot be followed, and there is a high possibility of major accidents, but Wu Jing obviously will not accept such nonsensical and absurd reasons as intuition.

The army still walked forward without looking back, and the sky was getting darker and darker.

Sun Ben marched and drove his horses, and repeatedly ordered the scouts to investigate in all directions. Even so, every time he passed a forest or mountain pass, he still felt a sense of uneasiness in Sun Ben's heart, but along the way, there was nothing unusual.

Sun Fu is not only Sun Ben's younger brother, but also the deputy general of the Pioneer Camp. Seeing Sun Ben's expression changed along the way, he couldn't help asking, "Brother, what are you worried about?"

Sun Ben told the truth: "I always feel that there is a problem with this road."

Sun Fu said, "Is it because of those footprints?"

Sun Ben nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Wu Jing didn't listen to my advice and insisted on taking the trail. Although the trail is convenient, if we are ambushed by the enemy, our army will suffer heavy losses!"

Sun Fu looked far away and pointed: "The terrain here is dangerous, surrounded by mountains and trees, it is really an excellent place to ambush and attack the enemy. If I am the enemy's general, I must ambush an army here!"

After saying that, the two thought of something at the same time and looked at each other.

"not good!"

"Scout!"

It was not good for Sun Ben to yell, because Sun Fu realized that the scouts sent out to explore the road had not responded to the message for a long time.

The next moment, Sun Ben resolutely stopped marching.

Wu Jing found that the vanguard had not moved, and was furious immediately, berating Wu Qi to step forward to question him.

Wu Qi came on horseback, met Sun Ben, and asked angrily: "Sun Ben, why did you stop marching? Let me tell you, the father-in-law is very angry now. If you don't march again, you may be punished."

Sun Ben said bluntly: "There must be deceit ahead, this road must not be taken!"

Wu Qi sneered and said: "If you say there is fraud, it is fraud? Are you the commander or my father is the commander? Is it yours or my father's? I warn you, either march or deal with it by military law!"

Seeing that the faces of the two were not friendly, and there was a tendency to fight if there was a disagreement, Sun Fu hurriedly said: "We are all relatives, why should we be so tit for tat? My elder brother is also thinking about the army. The scouts sent by our vanguard battalion have not responded for a long time. News, the terrain ahead is narrow and precipitous, you can never go wrong if you are careful."

Wu Qi snorted coldly, turned his head and turned his back to the two of them and said, "Who knows if your people lost their way on the way? Your elder brother said this himself."

Sun Ben's face darkened immediately, and he said coldly, "Shuzi is not enough and tricky!"

Sun Fu also said angrily: "Little General Wu, what you said is a bit too much!"

Wu Qi's expression changed, as if someone had stepped on his foot, and he jumped into a rage: "I am General Wu, not a little general Wu, pay attention to your wording Sun Fu! I will say it for the last time, march immediately! If you dare to be passive and slow down the army, Don't blame me for not thinking of relatives, and deal with it by military law!"

Wu Qi shook his head and left, leaving Sun Ben and Sun Fu furious.

"This kid, he really thinks of himself as a master. His father is the coach, and he is still his coach! He keeps his mouth shut and deals with the military law. The brat dares to ride on our heads and shit. Seeing how pretentious the fox is, I really want to give it to him." Fucking knife, it will pay off when you grow up!" Sun Fu scolded angrily.

Sun Ben said nothing with a dark face, he was hesitating whether to continue marching.

Sun Fu asked, "Brother, what should we do?"

Sun Ben's deep eyes fell on the narrow mountain pass in front of him, he hesitated for a while, and waved his big hand: "The whole army, let's go."
