I turned against Dong Zhuo at the beginning, and I went crazy in the Three Kingdoms.

It's not that Huang Gai is arrogant, but that they have the capital to be confident.

Sun Jian brought three thousand soldiers from Changsha, all of whom were fierce soldiers in hundreds of battles.

The 30,000 troops recruited from Yuzhou were not new soldiers, but private soldiers of the gentry, with well-equipped and well-trained soldiers.

Thirty thousand versus seven thousand, as long as you don't make big mistakes, you basically won't lose.

For Sun Jian, the only disadvantage is that he has more infantry.

"We only have three thousand cavalry, so we must try our best to take advantage of the infantry."

Sun Jian said, pointing his finger at a place in the northeast of Liang County.

"This is a valley called Hulukou, which is the only way for them to go south."

"We'll set up an ambush here. If they enter the valley, we'll surround them and kill them."

"If they do not enter the valley and instead defend the enemy outside the valley entrance, after a stalemate, our infantry can climb over the mountains and launch a surprise attack from the east."

The generals nodded. After all, Sun Jian's plan was quite sound and prudent.

Moreover, the Hulu Valley is important. If they don't occupy it, it will be blocked by Lu Bu's army from going north.

Therefore, the valley must be occupied.

Li Min Also agreed:

"Yes, as long as we occupy the valley, we will be invincible"

"But the valley is more than fifty miles away from Liang County, and it would take a whole day for the infantry to rush there. Sun

Jian immediately said:

"Without further ado, let’s set off now."

Li Min hesitated. After all, traveling all night consumes a lot of physical strength of the soldiers.

When they arrive at the mouth of the valley tomorrow afternoon, they will be exhausted.

Fortunately, the intelligence sent by Wang Yun showed that Lu Bu would set out the day after tomorrow, so Sun Jianjun was given three days. time.

Therefore, after Sun Jianjun rushed over in one day, he could rest for two days.

However, Sun Jian said:

"Thirty thousand troops need one night to prepare"

"He said that we should set off now, but the army will have to wait until tomorrow."

"We arrived at the mouth of the valley around evening, rested overnight, and set up camp to build fortifications on the second day. Time was still very tight. Li

Min then said:

"In this case, three thousand cavalry were allowed to go ahead and arrive at camp in advance."

Sun Jian hesitated for a moment and then refused.

Because they only have three thousand cavalry, which are precious and cannot be used as vanguard scouts.

Moreover, after the confrontation with Lu Bu's cavalry, his side needed cavalry even more.

The most important thing is that they clearly got the intelligence: Lu Bu's army has not yet moved.

Therefore, Sun Jian's army still has plenty of time.

The army will move out together without any problem.

Mobilizing tens of thousands of troops is not easy, and it took Sun Jian all night to arrange the tens of thousands of troops.

The sky will be dark. At dawn, the 20,000-strong army set off in a mighty manner. The remaining 10,000-strong army were led by Cheng Pu and Huang Gai to escort the baggage, grain and grass.

The fifty-mile journey was a huge test for the infantry.

But they still They encountered a northwest wind and marched for a day against the cold wind. Almost all their strength was worn away.

Some of the weak ones even fell behind.

Sun Jian had to divide 10,000 people to camp.

The other 10,000 people continued to move forward.

Thanks to Sun Jian's superior command, he was able to march more than fifty miles a day with 10,000 people in such a harsh environment.

In the evening, Sun Jianjun finally saw the valley. It was not until the sky was completely dark that Sun Jianjun came Go to the bottom of the valley.

Because he was too tired, Sun Jian did not send out cavalry scouts.

In fact, the hillside here is not steep, and war horses can climb it.

But the infantry who have been marching for a day have long exhausted their strength, and climbing the mountain is simply difficult for them. It was like ascending to the sky.

So, they all collapsed on the ground to rest, and they didn't even have the strength to pitch their tents.

Li Min found Sun Jian and said:

"The mountains here are not steep and war horses can easily go up and down."

"If the enemy hides on the top of the mountain and takes advantage of the situation to rush down, we will have no fighting power."

"So we should set up camp now."

Sun Jian has been in battle for a long time, so he naturally knows the importance of the camp.

But looking at the paralyzed soldiers around him, it is impossible to set up camp.

After Sun Jian hesitated for a moment, he said:

"In such a cold weather, there won't be troops stationed up there."

"Moreover, Lu Bu's army has not set off yet, where will the army come from?!"

At night, the cold wind howled, and it was bone-chilling.

Li Min shrank his neck in the cold, and felt that what Sun Jian said was reasonable, so he gave up persuading him.

The soldiers found firewood, lit the bonfire, and leaned against the fire. Li Min felt alive.

Sun Jian was also warming himself by the fire, but he didn't take off his armor, and he didn't even take off his ancient ingot knife.

Li Min couldn't help but laugh and said:

"Since the general said there are no troops up there, he should take off his armor."

After a day of armor-piercing march, although he was very tired while riding a war horse, Sun Jian still shook his head.

As long as he was in the army, he was the role model and belief of all soldiers, so he could not slack off at all.

Even when he lay down to rest, Sun Jian He also had to rest his sword on his pillow.

However, the moment he lay down, Sun Jian felt the vibration of the earth.

Earthquake?

Or was it an illusion caused by fatigue?

No! It was the cavalry!

"Enemy attack!"

"It's an enemy attack! Array, quickly array!"

Sun Jian immediately jumped up and roared, and the generals and soldiers around him also shouted:

"Enemy attack! Array!"

But the exhausted soldiers had no strength to line up in the camp.

Especially when they saw countless cavalry rushing down the mountain, it was like a rushing iron stream and roaring waves. The fully armed elite cavalry, in the deepest night, headed towards The most tired infantry showed their ferocious fangs and unleashed the most horrific killings.
