Three Kingdoms

Chapter 3058 This is a common oversight

History is always surprisingly similar. Expecting humans to find problems in history often ends up being an afterthought. Huang Gai's failure was no different from most military failures, it was due to negligence.

There are many reasons for negligence, perhaps because of impatience, perhaps because of greed for merit, perhaps both, perhaps neither, but one result is the same. Once negligence occurs, it will inevitably lead to failure.

Who can compete with Zhuge Liang for meticulousness?

Huang Gai obviously can't.

At the beginning, no one thought that they would fail, just like Huang Gai never thought that the cause of failure would be caused by Zhu Huan...

Huang Gai captured, well, never mind whether he really captured it or not. Anyway, now that Zigui belongs to Jiangdong, Huang Gai built Zigui as a base for advancing to guard against sneak attacks by the Sichuan and Shu armies, and he also made a detailed survey of the surrounding terrain. The detection did not leave any blind spots, and they even expected the Sichuan-Shu Army to launch some kind of sneak attack. Unfortunately, the Sichuan-Shu Army seemed to have made up its mind to hide in the fish, and did not make any moves at all.

At the beginning, Jiang Dongbing could still maintain 100% vigilance, but as time went by...

The Sichuan-Shu Army never showed up, so it was naturally impossible for the Jiangdong soldiers to maintain a high level of vigilance, so a group of people quietly walked around Zigui and touched Zhu Huan's butt.

Yes, even if the Jiangdong soldiers have relaxed a little, it is still a nonsense to attack the camp of ten thousand people with a small force and Zigui County, especially since Huang Gai is a veteran and has some experience and bravery. If there are few people who go there, they will not be able to resist Huang Gai's counterattack. If there are many people who go there, they will lose their concealment.

Therefore, no matter from which point of view, it is not easy to attack the Zigui forward camp arranged by Huang Gai, either by force or by sneak attack.

But if the prey is replaced by Zhu Huan, the situation is different.

First of all, Zhu Huan did not have many troops, and many of them were Ba people. They were very poor in organization and discipline. Therefore, those who served as sentries at the front must only be Zhu Huan's own men. Otherwise, according to the Ba people's rules, His temper, even if someone touches him under his nose, he may not be able to detect it!

No matter how cautious Zhu Huan was, he was still careless in one direction...

Like most mammals, the anus is always the Achilles' heel, the soft belly.

When Zhu Huan arrived at Bashan, it was naturally impossible to obtain supplies from Jiangdong. Zigui's forward camp was his most important source of logistical support. Who would have thought that one day the supplies would be not food and grass, but swords and guns?

What would Zhu Huan choose to do when he found out that a knife and gun were stabbed behind his butt and his anus was in danger? Did he fearlessly sacrifice his soft belly to protect the guy named White Tiger, also known as White Pig?

Are you kidding me?

Moreover, Zhu Huan suspected that he could quietly touch the surrounding area of ​​his camp without alerting the outposts he had set up in front of the battle line to guard against the Sichuan-Sichuan troops. Who could he be?

Is it possible that he is one of his own?

Are all Ba people really good people? Honesty and trustworthiness, five principles, four beauties and three loves? At least not the white pig, right?

Zhu Huan immediately suspected not only Baihu Bafu, but also suspected Huang Gai, or someone brought by Huang Gai.

Don't forget where Zhu Huan came from. He was born in Jiangdong. Although Jiangdong is located in a remote area, there have never been many cases of people plotting against each other! The Sun family is based in Jiangdong, so it is considered to be the third generation, but how many people are there with evil intentions behind the scenes? Zhu Huan is naturally aware of this, especially after he defected to Sun Quan. Of course, this also violated the interests of some people and caused a backlash from some people. Will anyone take risks because of this, and will they suffer from the forces opposing Sun Quan? Fighting and revenge?

It's not easy to deal with in the Jiangdong neighborhood, but in the Sichuan-Sichuan neighborhood, can it become the best place?

Is it Huang Gai or Zhu Zhi?

Or someone else?

Bald Qiang’s four-character mantra of hard work seems to come from Jiangdong’s thousand-year inheritance?

So will Zhu Huan immediately send troops to fight against the swords and spears on the chrysanthemum? Would he think that there was no conspiracy at all in this matter, but just a sneak attack by Sichuan and Shu?

Therefore, Zhu Huan immediately ordered all his soldiers to retreat to the defense. No matter how tense the situation was, the guards were not allowed to go into battle without permission. These guards are his troops, his private soldiers, the guards he has established since he led the army. They are his arms, his tentacles, his shields, and also his last support and most trustworthy. people.

When he failed to understand the situation, Zhu Huan could only trust his guards.

The sky was dark, the battle situation was chaotic, and there were fires everywhere. Zhu Heng didn't know how many enemies there were at the moment, but he believed that as long as he held firm, the enemies, no matter what they were, would not be able to find any opportunities...

Want to kill him?

At least you have to be prepared to break your teeth!

Even if the situation is unimaginably bad, Zhu Huan can still break through with his loyal guards!

As for the white pig, even if it gets rid of suspicion, it all depends on its own ability. Zhu Huan had no intention of rescuing Bafu, and did not even intend to send out a single soldier.

There were screams all around, but Zhu Huan's place was as quiet as a rock.

No matter there was blood and rain all around, he remained calm and unmoving. Even if Ba Ren died in front of him, he would not even blink an eyelid.

"Hold the formation!" 』

"Those who come near will die!" 』

"shoot! 』

Zhu Huan's guards, who could not figure out the true situation of the enemy, chose the safest method and used strong bows and crossbows to prevent anyone from approaching.

No matter who it is!

Following a series of roars, the sound of bowstrings was as fast as a rainstorm, and arrows flew towards the surrounding Ba people who were involuntarily attracted by Zhu Huan's neat array...

For the Ba people, when faced with the chaos around them, will they take the initiative to fight and rush to the bloodiest front line of fighting, or will they find a safe place? But the Ba people certainly didn't expect that their original "ally" would shoot ruthless arrows at them!

"kill! 』

Gan Ning yelled. His face was painted with oil paint, which he had learned from other Ba people. Gan Ning didn't think this oil paint had any effect on improving combat power before, but now he understands.

He led a group of soldiers forward. The soldiers in front waved their swords and spears and fought hard. The Ba Sheba people who led them around Huang Gai's camp and got to Zhu Huan's butt were also screaming with excitement and followed. Gan Ning was jumping back and forth to kill him.

Gan Ning likes to use his thick-backed copper bell knife, but that doesn't mean he can only use that knife. As long as it was a knife, Gan Ning was actually very good at using it. The standard sword in his hand was like a bloody flower, blooming from time to time, showing an enchanting figure in the dim forest. A sword that would feel heavy to ordinary people after swinging it a few times was like a straw in Gan Ning's hands. Every time he swung it lightly, he could block the opponent's weapon or cut the opponent's body, even the shield in his left hand. They all came to join in the fun from time to time, squeezing the people in front of him and constantly falling and dying.

Gan Ning had been holding it in for a long time. He felt as if he had accumulated energy for a lifetime and finally got a chance to vent it. Between the swings of the sword, almost no Ba people can withstand him for one round. Under his leadership, the Sichuan and Shu soldiers became more and more courageous as they fought, shouting for a killing spree. However, the unprepared Baihuba people screamed and fled after being killed. It was just a cup of tea. Gan Ning He almost pierced Baihu Baren's chrysanthemum and killed him in front of Zhu Huan and others.

Zhu Huan's bodyguard also discovered Gan Ning and others. They reported to Zhu Huan and prepared their troops.

The arrows in the hands of Zhu Huan's guards were invincible against the Ba people, but it was a little difficult in front of the shields and armor of Gan Ning and others. It’s not that Jiangdong’s archers are inferior to those of Sichuan and Shu. On the contrary, most of Jiangdong’s soldiers can use several bows and arrows, and the overall average crossbow level is a bit higher than that of Sichuan and Shu soldiers, not to mention Zhu Huan’s guards. Even more excellent.

But it’s difficult for a clever wife to make a living without rice. On the one hand, arrows are not automatically generated without limit, and in Bashan, there is no arsenal that can process them on the spot. Every arrow is missing; on the other hand, there is no arsenal that can be processed on site. On the other hand, when camping in the mountains and forests, no matter how protected or moisture-proofed it is, the bowstring will inevitably become damp and soften, resulting in a reduction in the power of the bow and arrow.

In addition, one side was attacked and was in chaos, while the other side had been holding back for a long time and was full of momentum. Therefore, Jiangdong soldiers were unable to use bows and arrows to drive Gan Ning and others away, and were directly knocked into the formation by Gan Ning's charge. !

"Zhu Xiumu!" The king wants you to die! 』

Gan Ning shouted, and while shouting, he slashed a Jiangdong guard to death.

Although Zhu Huan was in the array, he was well aware of the surrounding situation. When Gan Ning rushed over with his people, he saw that the armor on Gan Ning was not something ordinary Ba people could possess!

Zhu Huan failed to recognize Gan Ning. On the one hand, Gan Ning did not raise a banner. On the other hand, Zhu Huan and Gan Ning were not familiar with each other. Gan Ning still had paint on his face, but Gan Ning's words made Zhu Huan feel sad. One jump!

The next moment, Zhu Huan drew his sword and rushed forward with his guards!

He saw that Gan Ning was very skilled, so he wanted to catch Gan Ning who was shouting. He was the only one who wanted to catch anyone alive!

He wants to find out!

Zhu Huan slashed with his sword, and Gan Ning also struck with his sword. Sparks were flying, and Zhu Huan felt his wrist go numb, and he couldn't hold it back!

"Who are you?" ! 』

Zhu Huan asked through gritted teeth, staring at the face covered in oil paint in front of him, trying to identify it.

He couldn't recognize it...

Although it has one nose and two eyes, the gaudy oil paint destroys the original perception.

Gan Ning smiled widely and stopped talking. He just pushed Zhu Huan back with his shield to give him some space, and then slashed towards Zhu Huan's neck with his knife!

Zhu Huan was already on guard. He shrunk his body to avoid the knife that cut his neck. He retaliated and stabbed Gan Ning in the lower third of the shield.

Gan Ning twisted his body and lowered his shield to block Zhu Huan's thrust. At the same time, he used the strength of his half-turn to slash with his sword again.

Zhu Huan held on and cut Gan Ning's sword back.

Gan Ning raised the edge of his shield and hit Zhu Huan's chin.

Zhu Huan lowered his elbow and smashed the shield open.

With a "clang" sound, the swords of the two men collided together again, and then separated again the next second...

The two of them hit each other quickly, there was a jingle and clang, and the fire of the weapons colliding was everywhere!

The people around them didn't even have time to react, and the two of them fought for several rounds in a row!

However, Zhu Huan blocked Gan Ning, which was equivalent to blocking the thrust of the Sichuan and Shu soldiers. The surrounding White Tigers, who were originally panicking like ants on a steamer, gradually took a breath of relief.

Seeing that the momentum of the attack was blocked and the casualties began to increase, Gan Ning no longer wanted to fight. He slashed Zhu Huan three times in one go and took advantage of the gap when Zhu Huan was forced to retreat and retreated quickly.

Seeing the situation, Zhu Huan's guards wanted to pursue him, but Zhu Huan stretched out his hand to stop him.

"General?" 』

The guard asked in confusion.

Zhu Huan frowned, "Wait until all our people arrive..."

Because his men had to be sent out to serve as outposts and monitor the mountain roads ahead, there were only half of the men around Zhu Huan at the moment. What if the other party is feinting to retreat, but turns out there is an ambush? To be cautious is just to let the other party escape, but to be a little reckless is to say that you have to chase to no avail and risk your own life.

Zhu Huan is calm, but Baihu Baren has nothing to do with the word calm.

When they saw Gan Ning and others retreating, they cheered in unison, as if they were not the ones being chased and scattered in all directions. They cheered and followed closely.

Gan Ning and others did not look back and ran back along the road they had attacked before.

The White Tigers followed behind them, shouting, and Gan Ning could confirm the distance based on the shouts of these guys without even looking back...

The Ba people didn't chase them very far. Just after they passed the rocky bend, they saw some people standing on the rocks, holding crossbows and raising their bows, full of murderous intent.

Before the Ba people could react, arrows and crossbows were fired down, and a wail resounded throughout the valley. The Ba people who followed were so frightened that they immediately turned around and collided with those who were catching up behind them. , Oops, fell into a ball.

By the time White Tiger Bafu arrived at the scene brandishing his sword and sent people to investigate again, there was no trace of Gan Ning and others...

After confirming that there were no threats around him, Buff stood on the rock with his arms akimbo, spitting out a mouthful of thick phlegm in the direction where Gan Ning and others disappeared, then waved his arms and shouted something, attracting the others. The Ba people also shouted.

Zhu Huan raised his eyes and looked at Buff, who seemed to be enjoying himself quite a bit. His frown never relaxed.

Huang Gai stagnated, making it impossible for Zhu Huan to make big strides forward.

Zhu Huan also sent people to inquire about the camp, but he neither saw Huang Gai nor received any reply.

At that time, Huang Gai went to find Zhu Zhi, and it took a lot of time to go back and forth. In addition, the general was away, who could give Zhu Huan an accurate answer? And when Huang Gai came back, he looked unhappy. Who would go to Huang Gai to get into trouble for an "outsider" who was not in the camp?

So Zhu Huan waited and waited until Gan Ning made a sneak attack.

The original plan was to attack Sichuan and Sichuan with one oddity and one correctness, but now that we are not advancing on the front, is it possible that we need someone like Zhu Huan to break into Sichuan?

The attack from the rear only amplified Zhu Huan's worries.

If it were to attack from the front of Daba Mountain, there would be nothing to say, and Zhu Huan would not be too panicked. After all, there was still a rear where he could retreat and defend, but now the knife came from behind and killed Juhua directly. He was almost stabbed...

What happened to Huang Gai?

Why were the enemies coming from the rear not able to warn in advance?

Was it accidental?

Or some other reason?

Zhu Huan was still unable to make up his mind due to the various thoughts swirling around him.

White Tiger Buff, who had enjoyed the compliments, walked over with a swaying step that disowned his relatives, and then his expression suddenly changed, "What's going on?" Why would someone attack? Didn't you release the sentry? 』

Zhu Huan was still thinking about the problem and was too lazy to pay attention to this reckless man.

After the last conflict between Zhu Huan and Bafu, Bafu basically lost his military command.

Will Buff be willing?

Definitely reluctant.

So Buff naturally chose to deliberately mess up and not help Zhu Huan set up sentries, detect, etc., and this behavior once again deepened the gap between the two gangs. Personal love mixed with emotions has now turned into mutual distaste.

It's like when a man and a woman are in the heat of adultery, they want to stick together all the time and do things with eight limbs and nine limbs, but once the time goes on, even a kiss will make them sick for several nights.

"what do you want? 』

Zhu Huan looked at Baff calmly.

"separate! ” Buff stared. He was hiding aside just now and clearly saw the ferocious attacking team heading towards Zhu Huan, so if he continued to be with Zhu Huan, wouldn't he become Zhu Huan's human shield again in the next raid? And after separating from Zhu Huan, Baff naturally regained the command of the army.

Zhu Huan looked at Buff coldly and said two words after a while, "Okay." 』

"We can't tell the difference...ah?" What? ” Buff was about to give a long speech in one breath, including but not limited to the previous raid, the benefits of separation, and the threat of following, etc., but before he said anything, Zhu Huan agreed, just like He punched the empty space with all his strength and staggered immediately.

"One condition. Zhu Huan raised a finger and said, "I will attack in two directions... get the map!" 』

Soon, the guard spread the map on a stone next to it.

Zhu Huan drew two lines of attack on the map, "One is to the east and one is to the west. You choose one." 』

Buff stared and pondered for a long time, "Which one do you choose?" 』

"I choose the east one. ” Zhu Huan answered without thinking.

"No! I want the one from the east! Buff glared, "I choose the east one!" You go to the west one! 』

Zhu Huan fell silent and stared at Buff.

Barf raised his chin and hummed.

After a while, when the surrounding soldiers and Ba people thought that a conflict would break out between the two, and the atmosphere became increasingly tense, Zhu Huan gave in once again, "Okay, I'll take the west route... Let's say goodbye today." , and hope to meet again in the future! 』

After saying that, Zhu Huan turned around and left, "Send the order, prepare to move the camp!" Head west! 』
