Chapter 443
"Why hasn't the food arrived yet?"
After waiting for a day, Sun Jian's food was almost gone.
In order to stabilize morale, he couldn't tell the soldiers the real situation.
"Send someone to ask for it immediately."
"Don't delay any longer, the food must come."
"Tell Yuan Gonglu that if the food doesn't come, the army will collapse."
"If there is a camp riot, will he be able to take responsibility?"
Under Sun Jian's order, Cheng Pu took a few soldiers back to the coalition camp to ask for food.
However, Yuan Shu was not seen at all.
Only a small official met Cheng Pu.
After a brief explanation, he only said that preparations would be made as soon as possible, but no specific time was given.
Cheng Pu was furious.
However, it was useless.
In the camp, Cheng Pu looked around, but couldn't see the person in charge.
He wanted to find the leader of the alliance, Yuan Shao, but was scolded and not allowed to see him because of his low status.
This made him almost explode.
The soldiers on the front line were fighting for their lives, waiting for emergency food and grass.
But the damn officials behind them were shirking their responsibilities.
Just as he was about to leave the camp, he heard singing and dancing.
It was from the central army tent!
Cheng Pu clenched the knife in his hand.
Staring with eyes wide open.
"How can such a coalition succeed!"
With a roar, Cheng Pu led his men back.
He told Sun Jian about the scenes he saw in the anti-Dong Zhuo coalition camp.
Sun Jian was speechless for a long time.
After a long time to calm down, he said with a sense of loss: "I finally understand why Cheng Zhi didn't come."
"What can such a bunch of foolish people do if they come?"
"The court and the country are not worth mentioning in the eyes of these people."
"Maybe it's better to live in a corner..."
His voice stopped abruptly.
The various things that happened in the anti-Dong Zhuo coalition army made his mood begin to change.
Like a small grass in spring, it immediately grew wildly when it encountered warm wind and sunshine.
It could not be stopped anymore.
Sun Jian, whose faith collapsed, was discouraged.
He stayed in the big tent and had no intention of doing anything.
The food and grass in the camp were greatly reduced and were almost exhausted.
Cheng Pu and the other two were extremely anxious.
But there was nothing they could do.
They asked the soldiers to go out hunting and pick wild vegetables, and finally survived the dinner of the day.
But what to do tomorrow?
For a team of thousands of people, the food and grass consumed every day was a huge number.
Cheng Pu and the other two gathered together, but they could not come up with a solution.
If it really doesn't work tomorrow morning, I will die to advise the lord not to stay here and suffer.
Let's go back to Changsha.
At night, the entire Changsha military camp was filled with a depressed mood.
The soldiers also felt a different situation.
Unlike the time when the morale was high, the Changsha army was very depressed.
Even the night guards were not in the mood.
…
Close.
Li Su gave Hua Xiong a plan.
"Sun Jian is such a brave man, but he has not been able to advance for several days."
"This fact is strange."
"Although the coalition forces are powerful, they have their own thoughts."
"There must be internal exclusion, and Sun Jian must be harmed."
"If we raid the camp at night, we will definitely gain something."
"Without Sun Jian, although the coalition forces are powerful, they are not worth mentioning."
Hua Xiong agreed.
Immediately arranged for the soldiers to have a good sleep.
Waiting to go out of the pass at night to raid the camp.
…
Night.
The moonlight was particularly bright.
There was a dead silence in the Changsha camp.
Sun Jian was not in the mood to take care of things, so all the things were put on Cheng Pu.
He took turns to guard the night with Han Dang and Zu Mao.
When it was Zu Mao's turn, it was almost three o'clock in the morning.
Zu Mao, who was yawning, took over Cheng Pu's shift, but fell asleep again not long after.
"Kill!!!"
Suddenly, the sound of killing came from nowhere and shook the sky.
It woke up Zu Mao who was sleeping.
"Enemy attack!!"
Zu Mao picked up the long sword beside him and shouted.
However, he found that the camp was on fire.
"How is it possible?!"
Zu Mao was shocked.
He immediately went to call others.
Cheng Pu and Han Dang ran out of the tent after hearing the sound and hurried to call Sun Jian.
"Damn it!" Sun Jian came out of the tent and looked at the camp that had been engulfed in fire and the soldiers in chaos. He was full of resentment in his heart.
"Yuan Gonglu has misled me!"
Cheng Pu pulled hard, "My lord, don't say anything now. Retreating quickly is the right way."
He didn't care about Sun Jian's struggle, pulled him up and went to find a horse.
Gather some soldiers and organize a breakout.
In the Changsha military camp, the chaotic soldiers were no match for the Xiliang soldiers.
Many people died in the chaos.
The scattered troops, coupled with the huge panic, could not resist the fierce attack of Hua Xiong and his Xiliang army.
"Changsha Sun Wentai, come and die!!"
Hua Xiong roaredThe sound suppressed the noise in the camp where the fire was rising to the sky.
It spread in the space.
It shook the senses of every Changsha soldier.
Sun Jian fled.
Hua Xiong took advantage of the moonlight and the firelight to look.
He found that a small team broke through, and among the people on horseback, one of them wore a red cherry helmet.
"Rat Sun Jian ran over there, boys, follow me to chase him!"
Hua Xiong took a few hundred soldiers and immediately chased after Sun Jian where he broke through.
The Xiliang army came prepared and had enough strength. At this moment, everyone was brave enough to be the first.
The pursuit was very fast.
It happened to be a full moon night, and the vision was bright.
In the chaos, Sun Jian and the soldiers were chased away.
Only Zu Mao followed Sun Jian.
The two drove their horses and fled, not caring about anything.
However, they were always chased by Hua Xiong.
Zu Mao reacted and said, "The enemy recognizes the helmet on the lord's head, and took it off from my belt."
"I will lead the enemy away."
Sun Jian did as he was told, handed the helmet to Zu Mao, and fled in another direction.
"Chase the man with the red cherry helmet, don't let Sun Jian get away!" Hua Xiong led the team to chase him relentlessly.
Ignoring the others, he just stared at the red cherry helmet.
Hua Xiong quickly caught up and chopped Zu Mao to the ground with a knife.
He took off the red cherry helmet, but found that it was not Sun Jian.
It was completely different from the person who challenged the battle in front of the pass two days ago.
"Damn it! I fell into a trap!"
Hua Xiong was so angry that he beat his chest and stamped his feet.
...
The camp of the coalition forces.
In the big tent of singing and dancing, Yuan Shao received the news.
"What? Sun Wentai was defeated?"
"How is this possible?"
He couldn't imagine how such a brave Sun Jian could be defeated so miserably.
Yuan Shao ordered his men to remove the banquet and discuss countermeasures with the princes.
The princes all bowed their heads and said nothing.
The central army tent fell into a state of depression.
"Report!"
The soldiers outside the tent walked in and knelt on one knee to report.
"Someone outside the camp came to challenge!"
"It was Hua Xiong from Xiliang."
"He used a weapon to pick up the helmet of the Grand Administrator Sun and cursed."
In the central army tent, the princes all looked unhappy.
He was beaten to the front of the camp gate, and he was still carrying the spoils.
It was simply killing people and breaking their hearts.
Yuan Shao frowned.
After the great defeat, morale was low, and at this time a hearty victory was needed to boost the morale of the army.
"Who dares to fight?"
Yuan Shao asked in a deep voice.
Yuan Shu looked at the princes who bowed their heads around him and sneered in his heart.
He gave a look to the young general beside him.
The man stood up, bowed and said, "General Yu She, I beg you to go into battle and kill the thief Dong's dog!"
