Chapter 104 The troops are divided into three groups

The battle between Sun Jian and Dong Zhuo to attack Yunwu City seemed difficult to end in a short time. Sun Jian's troops penetrated deep into Yunwu City alone and were surrounded by Han Sui's troops in the city. However, Han Sui was not too eager to launch an attack.

At this time, Sun Jian's troops had become a duck in his mouth. He could not be anxious and enjoy the fruits of victory slowly. If he pushed Sun Jian too hastily, he might be pecked by a duck.

But Han Sui is not in a hurry, but Sun Jian is. He knows that he has been surrounded. If he cannot think of a way to break out immediately, the longer it takes, the worse his situation will be. But now the morale of the entire army has been severely damaged.

In this case, how should he boost the morale of the soldiers and make them burst out with a strong desire to survive in despair?

In fact, people can indeed burst out with great strength in desperate situations, but there are also some prerequisites, that is, they should at least see a glimmer of hope for survival. The role of a good commander is to enable soldiers to survive in desperate situations.

It can also see hope and ignite the desire for survival. Otherwise, most people will be easily crushed by the weight of desperate situations.

The main hope now is to find a way to break through Han Sui's troops that cut off their retreat. But now Han Sui's troops have also rushed out from Yunwu City and launched an encirclement attack on his troops. He can either break out of the encirclement with all his strength.

Or we have to leave some of the troops as sacrifices to fight Han Sui's troops in a bloody battle, and hold back the troops that rush out of Yunwu City.

But who is willing to be a part of this group that will definitely be sacrificed, and they may also surrender directly to Han Sui's troops out of despair. If this is the case, Sun Jian's situation will become even more critical.

At this time, it seemed that Sun Jian was aware of Sun Jian's worries. A veteran of his who had been following him for a long time stepped forward and expressed his willingness to personally lead an army to provide support for Sun Jian. Sun Jian did not respond at first.

He, because he knew very well that this mission was almost a narrow escape, he was unwilling to let this veteran who had followed him for so long die, but he really couldn't think of a more suitable candidate besides him.

.

It is true that there are one or two other generals with stronger personal abilities than him, but their loyalty to him is very questionable, especially at this critical moment of life and death, who can guarantee that they will not directly rebel and surrender to Han Sui on the battlefield?

, or even a defection, the two more capable generals will cause greater trouble.

If you take them with you, they will not have that much independent power, and they will have better control. Just when Sun Jian was hesitant, the general in front of him actually knelt down directly on Sun Jian's side.

In front of me, I detailed my experience of following Sun Jian all the way through the wars in the north and south over the years. Tears were shed as I spoke. Sun Jian was also touched at this time, and he quickly helped him up with his hands. His eyes were already wet, but there were many words.

It's on my lips but I don't know what to say.

At this moment, the spies rushed in from outside the tent. Regardless of the situation, they told Sun Jian very anxiously that Han Sui's army suddenly accelerated and seemed to be heading towards their formation with all its strength.

After hearing this, Sun Jian couldn't help but sigh, and without hesitation, he handed over the command of one-third of the troops to the veteran who had been with him for many years, and personally gave a few instructions in his ear. The veteran looked solemn,

After bidding farewell to Sun Jian, he immediately led his troops out of the tent and faced Han Sui's pursuers.

Sun Jian knew that time waited for no one, so he no longer hesitated, quickly gathered all the remaining troops, and then rushed to the forefront, leading the army to rush towards the direction from which they came.

Moreover, the troops sent by Han Sui to cut off Sun Jian's retreat were more familiar with the terrain near Yunwu City. They knew some hidden passages and shortcuts, so even though Sun Jian had made preparations in advance to prevent them from cutting off his retreat,

But in the end, they still failed to prevent Han Sui's troops from cutting off the passage.

The most critical point is that after they occupied some advantageous positions, they were able to make good use of the terrain to deploy defense. The absolute number of their troops was not very large. In total, Sun Jian's troops plus the troops left behind added

Together they would still have more troops than them, but because they took advantage of the terrain, and with the help of powerful crossbows and shield wall formations, they easily repelled the many troops sent by Sun Jian from both sides.

The corpses blocked the narrow passage, and the blood flowed along the ditch to the tributary of the Yellow River, dyeing all the water near the riverbank on one side bright red, looking quite evil under the reflection of the setting sun.

.

At this time, Sun Jian finally seemed to remember that he also had a special force that was good at rock climbing and traveling in various complex and dangerous areas, and that was the Macaque Army. The Macaque Army had suffered some casualties in the previous battles, but now the remaining people

There were still many among them who were the most elite, so on the one hand, Sun Jian rode his horse and whipped his whip to command the troops to assemble and set out; on the other hand, he summoned these macaque troops and asked them to find shortcuts or hidden passages from the side.

Sun Jianxin said that he should have thought that Han Sui's troops could bypass his own defensive troops and go straight to the most dangerous and critical places. There must be some secret passages that he didn't know about. Although time was very tight now, he still had to do it anyway.

There is one more opportunity. If the Macaque Army can find these secret passages in time, and then sends people to bypass these secret passages, they will have the opportunity to combine internal and external forces to disintegrate Han Sui's defensive forces.

But Sun Jian couldn't delay time. He still had to go all out to launch an attack from the front, because he couldn't pin his hopes entirely on discovering the secret passage. Even if he discovered the secret passage, he might not be able to get through the secret passage from inside.

If he can get in, Han Sui's troops will definitely deploy additional tight defenses. At the same time, the terrain there is probably easy to defend but difficult to attack. It may not be possible to get in in a short time, so he must put enough pressure on the front, so that

They will not be able to go all out when defending the flanks, so they can have the opportunity to score from the secret passage on the flanks.

At this time, the veteran general who had followed Sun Jian for a long time had already led his army into a fierce battle with Han Sui's main force. Sun Jian sent him many elite troops, even more than the elite troops he had left on his own.

I hope he can have a small chance to create a miracle, not to mention defeat Han Sui's main force, but at least delay it long enough, and then have some chance to find a way out.
