Chapter 72 Take the Water Pass lightly, pursue it on a moonlit night! 【First order】!!

Tens of thousands of troops in person.

Under the gaze of many generals………

Gongsun Mu, who was dressed in silver dragon scale armor and riding a snow-riding horse under his crotch, gently shook the reins in his hand and drove his horse to the front of the soldiers.

He is not as played in film and television dramas.

But whenever an army goes out on a campaign, it must say something encouraging and morale.

Not to mention that he was not familiar with these people, most of the tens of thousands of soldiers in front of him did not know him at all.

Even if you know!

If he can’t lead them to victory, then everything is. Throughout the ages, it has been said that the strong are respected.

But few people know:

Only in the army can this principle be fully embodied. At the moment, there is only one thing he has to do.

Lead them to pursue Huaxiong’s subordinates, and then defeat Huaxiong, proving to these things that he Gongsun Mu is the strong man they expected.

And before that.

No matter how inspiring and fanciful he said, it was in vain. Therefore.

Gongsun Mu didn’t talk nonsense, but came to everyone and said a word.

“The whole army goes!”

“Target Shuishui Pass, pursue Huaxiong!”

When the words fell, Gongsun Mu took the lead. Behind it.

Xia Houtian, Zhang Ren and the others, who were familiar with it, did not hesitate, and quickly led the army to follow.

Among the five thousand cavalry sent by Ma Teng, Ma Chao, a fourteen-year-old young man at the time, looked at Gongsun Mu who was far away, and his eyes lit up slightly.

Fang Cai, if Gongsun Mu talked nonsense at length, he would only feel tired of it.

And now.

Gongsun Mu’s clean and neat style.

He couldn’t help but feel that this person had a great appetite for him. Think like this.

Ma Chao said to the Ma Jiajun soldiers behind him: “The whole army keeps up!!” ”

“Don’t lose my Ma Jiajun’s face!!!

Sun Jian’s remnant, temporary station. Camp gate.

Cao Cao, Gongsun Zhan, Ma Teng, Sun Jian, Zhang Di, and Liu Bei appeared here at an unknown time.

They looked at the pursuing troops that had poured out all their troops under the command of Gongsun Mu, and their eyes flashed with concern and prayer.

“I hope they can succeed in this way!”

Chen Liutai shou Zhang Di spoke, his tone a little embarrassed.

Although he has always been optimistic about Gongsun Mu, it is really time to let Gongsun Mu lead the troops independently………

If he says he is not worried, it is all false. Cao Cao did not refute what his friend Zhang Di said.

Although he had shown great trust in Gongsun Mu in front of several people just now, only Cao Cao himself knew that he was making a big gamble.

Gongsun Mu won.

His reputation as Cao Cao would surpass the princes. Gongsun Mu lost!

Although he will not become a sinner of the coalition army, he will also be greatly damaged by this, just like Sun Jian now.

What happened to this Jiangdong tiger is a lesson from his past.

“Go back to camp!”

“I’ve done everything that should have been done, and now we can only trust that Jing Luo won’t let us down!!!

Cao Cao spoke up, his tone revealing a helpless relief. When Gongsun Zhan, Ma Teng and others heard this, they couldn’t help but smile.

“Yes! I can only believe that this young offspring was born! ”

“If he succeeds, the coalition forces will be able to point the sword at the tiger prison, and the attack and death into Luoyang is just around the corner.”

“If he fails…”

“Maybe this time to ask Dong, it will be a good thing to grind!”

Gongsun Chan echoed.

As he spoke, he remembered the sour jujube alliance camp, and when the news of Sun Jian’s defeat came, the rest of the princes who were silent.

Count on those people!

It’s basically no different from expecting a sow to go up a tree. Compare to those people.

Gongsun Zan still felt that he got along with Cao Cao, Ma Teng, Sun Jian and others more happily, and it was considered to be compatible.

The cavalry ran fast.

Twenty miles away, but in a few hours, he had already arrived under the city pass of the city of Shanshui Pass.

Gongsun Mu looked up at the Dong Zi banner that was still being displayed on the city wall, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

If he had only speculated about Huaxiong’s withdrawal before. Well now.

He was completely convinced that there could never be any ambush in the city.

“After entering the city, leave a thousand people to garrison, waiting to receive the follow-up army!”

“The rest of the people wait, continue to pursue the enemy army with me!”

After Gongsun Mu finished speaking, his heel lightly kicked the belly of the snow black horse, and he was about to drive the horse towards the city gate.

“Senior Brother!!!”

“Beware of fraud, let Ren go ahead and test it!”

Gongsun Mu has not yet come to his senses.

As his junior brother, Zhang Ren had already led a group of 100 black-armored elite horses to rush towards the Shuishui Pass where the city gate was wide open.

Seeing this scene, how Gongsun Mu didn’t know Zhang Ren’s worries. This made him laugh, but also touched!!!

Not much.

When Zhang Ren after entering the city confirmed that there was no ambush in the city, he appeared at the gate of the city and signaled to Gongsun Mu and the others that he could enter the city………

Gongsun Mu waved his hand. Tens of thousands of cavalry swarmed in. Subsequently.

I saw them rushing out of the west gate of the Shuishui Pass and chasing them along the traces left by the retreat of the Western Liang army.

…… At dusk.

The Western Liang army withdrew to the official road of Tiger Prison Pass.

Huaxiong is leading the retreat of the 50,000 Western Liang army under his command. But somehow.

Hua Xiong’s eyelids suddenly jumped, and an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness arose in his heart.

“Junshi, do you say that I am…”

Thinking like this, Hua Xiong habitually wanted to ask Jia Xu’s opinion. But after the words were spoken, Hua Xiong reacted.

There is still Jia Xu beside him.

After the old fox suggested that he withdraw the army, he had already left the Shuishui Pass one step ahead of him while he Huaxiong arranged the follow-up of the withdrawal.

Will Jia Xu take the opportunity to escape and then betray Xiangguo if he leaves first? Huaxiong was not worried at all.

Because when he thought of the dead soldiers of Xiangguofu who secretly followed Jia Xu.

Hua Xiong knew: there were those dead soldiers who were only loyal to Xiangguo staring, not to mention that Jia Xu fled and betrayed Xiangguo, it was difficult to die.

But.

The feeling of uneasiness made Huaxiong unable to remain indifferent.

In a depressed mood, Huaxiong, who couldn’t think of any clue alone, directly asked people to call Li Su, another strategist in the army, over.

Not for long.

An ordinary-looking young scribe came to Hua Xiong.

“General, you look for me!”

Li Su treated Huaxiong with great respect. Even if!

He had previously made great contributions, persuaded Lü Bu to kill Ding Yuan, and led the Hezhou army to serve Dong Zhuo.

But Li Su knew it in his heart.

Among them, perhaps his lobbying ability took part of the credit. But more credit.

It is thanks to his lord Dong Zhuo, and the disagreement between Lü Bu and Ding Yuan.

As for the reasons for this, it couldn’t be simpler.

Ding Yuan’s man should never have led the army of Zhengzhou to denounce Dong Zhuo. Because before Ding Yuan served as the pastor of the prefecture, the previous pastor of the prefecture was called… Dong Zhuo.

If you really want to talk about the foundation and control power in the Zhengzhou army, Dong Zhuo may not be worse than Ding Yuan, who was born as a scribe and was extremely defensive of Lü Bu and other military generals!

And this is also the reason why after the surrender of the Dong Zhuo army, there was no large-scale occurrence.

Dong Zhuo was also the head of the Hezhou Army.

Huaxiong didn’t know what Li Su was thinking, and he directly expressed the doubts in his heart.

“Li Su, for some reason, a certain family is always uneasy in their hearts!”

“You think…”

“Is there a possibility that the Kwantung Allied Army is pursuing me and others!”

Hearing Huaxiong’s speculation, Li Su smiled bitterly in his heart.

He has always been known for his eloquence, and it is really difficult for him to make such a plan.

Thinking of Jia Xu’s actions before, Li Su thought for a while and said, “General, it shouldn’t be!” ”

“Since Jia Junshi can leave one step ahead of the army with confidence, he must have concluded that the Guandong thief did not dare to rashly attack!”

“And!”

“After a big defeat, it is too late for them to preserve their strength with each other, where are they willing to follow you!”

While Li Su was talking, he slapped Huaxiong on the ass without a trace. Sure enough.

When Huaxiong heard Li Su’s words, his face was suddenly overjoyed.

“Haha, you Li Su is listening to!!! when he speaks”

“No wonder Xiangguo sends you as an envoy every time!”

“That’s it!”

“Maybe it’s really someone who is overthinking!”

After speaking, Hua Xiong said to the soldiers of the Western Liang Army who were still marching behind him: “Brothers, step up! ”

“Strive to march another twenty miles before dark!!!

“When you arrive at the Tiger Prison Pass the day after tomorrow, a certain family will let the defenders in the city keep and greet you with good wine and meat!!!

As soon as Huaxiong’s promise came out, the morale of the Western Liang Army was suddenly boosted. Even the speed of the march was a little faster.

…… Rear of the Western Liang Army.

On the way to pursue the Western Liang army, Gongsun Mu looked at the dim sky that gradually disappeared above the horizon with the remnant sun………

His heart sank slightly.

After pursuing for half a day, he never saw the figure of the withdrawn Western Liang army.

Even if he was as confident as he was before, he couldn’t help but doubt his own speculation. Could it be that………

The Western Liang army was in ambush somewhere ahead, waiting for them to come to the door themselves.

Come to think of it.

Gongsun Zan looked back at the countless cavalry behind him. Although at first glance, it is still a long cavalry dragon. But Gongsun Zhan’s heart was clear.

Under the high-intensity and rapid pursuit for half a day, the 16,000 cavalry at the time of departure, under the successive falls, it is not bad to have more than 15,000 people at this time! And that’s not the biggest problem.

As night falls, the situation will become more and more unfavorable to him. Because of the ancient soldiers, there was no shortage of patients with night blindness.

Although the cavalry unit is “pampered” and the food is stronger than that of ordinary soldiers, this does not mean that night blindness will not be absent.

If he continues to give the order to march in the dark. When the time comes.

Under the influence of the dual factors of falling behind and night blindness.

Even if he catches up with the Western Liang Army, it is estimated that there will be about 10,000 soldiers under his command.

That’s it.

It is still Gongsun Mu’s optimistic estimate. Continue the pursuit? Or will it recede?

This is a difficult problem in front of Gongsun Mu.

On the side of Gongsun Mu, Zhao Yun, who was always following him, did not dare to interrupt his own master brother’s thoughts.

“Phew!”

Suddenly, Gongsun Mu let out a breath.

“Pass the order, the whole army continues to pursue!”

“On the march, do not light torches because of the night!”

“Whoever disobeys this decree…”

“No mercy for killing!!!”
