Chapter 389 Xu He Sends Troops

Within the territory of Dongjun, Baima.

"Hurry up, don't fall behind."

On the flat ground, an endless group of people and horses flowed on the field, each wearing a yellow scarf, like a muddy river flowing on the ground, winding forward continuously.

This army is exactly the headquarters of Xu He's army, which started from Puyang City. The total number is 130,000. Opening the arsenal in the county, it can be said that the whole body is covered, which is a world of difference from the yellow scarves who wore commoner clothes and different equipment back then.

On the other hand, Xu He's face was full of arrogance, looking at his mighty army with high spirits, his heart was full of pride.

Liu Ye! Back then you beat a certain person and hid in the deep mountains, this time you will come back to take revenge.

Xu He has deep resentment towards Liu Ye. Liu Ye fought in Qingzhou, and his greatest achievement was defeating him. Afterwards, Xu He was extremely embarrassed. The city outside was full of wanted orders from the government. He didn't dare to come out, so he had to hide in the middle of the mountains all day long, without peace.

But this time, there are millions of people under his command, so Liu Ye is not going to be defeated by him?

In Xu He's mind, it seems that the scene of Liu Ye's death, the emperor of the Han family being deposed, himself wearing a dragon cannon, holding a jade seal, and millions of yellow scarf soldiers cheering loudly around him.

"Xu Shuai, urgent military situation!"

A loud shout suddenly shattered Xu He's fantasy, Xu He frowned immediately, and said dissatisfiedly, "What's the matter?"

"Shuai Xu! Liu Ye led the Han army straight to Suanzao City. Sima Shuai led the main force to fight fiercely with the enemy. They were defeated by the Han army. Suanzao City has already fallen into the enemy's hands." The spies shouted.

Xu He's complexion changed, and he immediately said angrily: "Well, you are a spy, have you been bought by the Han army? How dare you disturb our army's morale, dragged you out and beheaded!"

The spy was taken aback, and hurriedly shouted for grievances: "Xu Shuai, the villain is telling the truth, all the truth."

However, before he finished speaking, the two big and round men beside Xu He rushed up with fierce expressions, and four powerful arms grabbed him and dragged him down.

Xu He was puzzled. In fact, he had already believed in the spies' reports. After all, he had fought many battles with Liu Ye back then, so he knew himself and the enemy. Liu Ye dared to come with a few thousand troops to fight against the tens of thousands of troops on his side. Now he controls the land of the three states. Sima's fear of 50,000 troops is naturally even more despised.

The point is, if this news spreads, the army will be in chaos. Regardless of Xu He's menacing 100,000-odd army, in fact, most of them have not been attached for a long time, and the morale of the army is extremely easy to shake. They must not let the news of Sima's defeat reach their ears.

Thinking of this, Xu He suddenly had a fierce expression on his face. He looked around and his eyes were cold: "The spy just now lied about the military situation and was captured and killed by the commander. If you are not strict with your mouth, don't blame the general for being ruthless!"

"Yes Yes Yes."

The guards beside him lowered their heads one after another, obediently, not daring to look at Xu He, for fear that Xu He would find an excuse to kill him with a knife.

Xu He snorted, but his mind was full of thoughts.

Sima Fear's death was equivalent to breaking Xu He's arm out of thin air. After all, it was an army of 50,000, and the jujube would inevitably fall into the hands of the Han army, so Xu He's strategy of attacking Hulao Pass head-on would naturally be difficult to succeed.

At the beginning, Xu He's strategy was that Sima feared to take the lead in taking down the wild jujube, clearing the way for the Chinese army, and then gathered a full 200,000 troops to attack Hulao Pass head-on.

Historically, when the eighteen princes attacked Dong Zhuo, the army had to face two checkpoints before entering Luoyang from the Guandong, namely Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass. In fact, Luo Guanzhong played on the spot. A name, Hulaoguan is Sishuiguan.

Back then, King Mu of Zhou hunted around the fields and caught several tigers. After being injured, he locked them up in Hulao Guan, hence the name Hulaoguan.

There are eight passes around Luoyang, and the entire area around Luoyang is almost surrounded by mountains and rivers and the Yellow River. Hulao Pass is the first pass in the east of Luoyang. It is built on the mountain and is quite majestic. It is known as the most powerful pass in the world.

Once Xu He leads a large army to attack Hulao Pass head-on, it will put huge pressure on the entire pass, and Xu He can also block Hulao Pass with a large army, and then divide the army to attack Yuzhou, Nanyang and other places.

Fortunately, Yu Jin acted decisively and dispatched light soldiers to eliminate the Yellow Turbans entrenched in Nanyang. Otherwise, the Yellow Turbans would respond to each other. withstand.

However, with the elimination of the Sima Fear Army, this strategy has failed. Liu Ye has already led the army to occupy Suanzao, and Hulao Pass and Suanzao are echoed at a distance.

At this time, Xu He got another bad news. Yuan Shu, the prefect of Runan County, sent his general Zhang Xun to lead 10,000 troops to the north, and seemed to be preparing to fight with Liu Ye.

At night, Xu He ordered the army to set up camp.

While Xu He was thinking hard in the tent of the Chinese army, Luo Su, the general of the army, suddenly broke into the camp with a bad face.

Xu He frowned: "Luo Su, what are you doing in such a panic?"

Luo Su whispered: "Xu Shuai, Sima Shuai was really defeated in Suanzao. Dozens of remnant soldiers fled back to the army. The last general has already taken care of him in advance. Do you see?"

The cold and stern look flashed across Luo Su's brows, and he wiped his neck with his palm.

Xu He nodded, and said coldly: "It's all dealt with."

However, the guard outside the tent suddenly shouted: "Xu Shuai, all the defeated generals under Sima Shuai's command have escaped, and there are already more than a thousand of them."

Xu He's complexion changed immediately, he shook his head, and said helplessly, "Forget it, let's take care of them as a battalion and call someone to come and ask for details."

Luo Su led out of the camp, and after a while brought in a young commander of Sima Fear's army, with several wounds on his body, he was quite embarrassed.

"What's the important thing for Xu Shuai to summon the villain?" The yellow scarf thief Xiaoshuai lowered his head and said.

Xu He snorted: "How did Sima Fear lose? Let's hear it. Don't make any rash remarks, and don't omit details."

"Yes, Sima Shuai heard that Liu Ye led the Han army out of Hulao Pass, so he personally led an army of 50,000 troops out."

Xu He clapped the case and said angrily: "Sima is afraid of this guy! Didn't someone send Wang He to him as a military counselor? Didn't Wang He dissuade him?"

Xiaoshuai said awkwardly: "You don't know Sima Shuai's temperament, and Mr. Wang can't persuade him."
