Seeing Cao Cao and others going straight towards the officers and soldiers, Sun An was immediately panicked.
Although he was not a general's son, he was no stranger to war. When he was in his hometown, he had also witnessed the elites of the Western Army of the Song Dynasty fighting with the Xixia people.
In his inherent impression, if ordinary generals and generals charge into the formation bravely, they can be resisted by the cooperation of five or seven sharp soldiers. Even extremely brave generals rarely dare to clash in a large formation alone.
But these days when fighting in Huazhou, we find that the paths are not the same. It is not uncommon for a warrior who dares to fight to disperse dozens or even hundreds of people on his own.
Only then did he understand a truth: the more elite the soldiers, the less dependent they are on the generals!
vice versa.
To be honest, the officers and soldiers in Huazhou are not very elite. If there are no strong generals in charge, it will be impossible to defeat Cao Cao.
Sun An shouted: "I want to go back and lead the army, halberd wielder, and I will fight with you next time."
Shi Wengong laughed when he heard this: "My dear, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm about to catch you, where are you going?"
As the two of them talked and answered, two groups of men and horses from Cao Cao's side had entered the camp. Suddenly, they heard people shouting and horses neighing, and there was chaos.
Sun An became more and more anxious and shouted angrily: "What are you bragging about? Am I as weak as you?" After saying this, the two swords danced faster and faster, trying to force the opponent away so that he could go back and rectify the army.
Shi Wengong also saw his intention. In the midst of his long laughter, a square-shaped halberd was waved vertically and horizontally, entangled tightly.
Lu Zhishen, who was nearby, was overjoyed to see him and shouted: "Teacher, it's not that the Sa family is robbing you of your business. Brother Wu personally confessed that if he wants to run away, I will catch him. There are mountains of military orders in front of the two armies, and the Sa family can't disobey him."
After saying his excuse, Lu Zhishen clapped his horse and waved his staff, joining the battle group.
This is another guy who knows how to fight. It is difficult for Sun An to win against Shi Wengong alone. How can he defeat Shi Wengong if he adds a flower monk?
Suddenly he couldn't resist, and he shouted anxiously: "Two and one of me, how can we be considered heroes!"
Lu Zhishen laughed and said: "In fighting, we use all possible means. If ten thousand people are equal to one of you, you should recognize it."
Sun An was a simple man and had not seen much of the world at that time. Hearing what he said was quite reasonable, he had to grit his teeth and fight hard, holding on for more than twenty years. Shi Wengong swung his halberd and hooked his swords. Sun An I was eager to pull it out. Lu Zhishen's Zen staff arrived early.
It was said that this stick was enough to kill Sun An, but Lu Zhishen saw Cao Cao's love for talents, and originally wanted to hit him on the back of the head, so he moved it downwards, and with five points less strength in his hand, he pressed it against his waist and only swiped it. Sweep Sun An off his horse.
Sun An also saw that the other party showed mercy, sighed deeply, and abandoned his swords.
But on Shaohua Mountain, Zhu Wu heard the noise from the camps below and said happily: "Reinforcements are coming!" Chen Da, the "Jiangjian Tiger", and two others, fired up nearly a thousand minions, opened the gate of the village, and started killing them fiercely. Come down the mountain.
Just as Cao Cao and others entered the Huazhou camp, Zhu Wu took the opportunity to attack from both sides. The officers and soldiers were immediately defeated. No less than two thousand people asked to surrender, and the rest fled under the cover of night.
Yang Chun shouted: "Brothers, come and meet brother Wu Mengde and Wu Zhi!"
Zhu Wu and Chen Da were both shocked. They were going to invite Monk Hua, but unexpectedly they invited this great god. They rushed forward, dismounted and cut the whisk. Zhu Wu praised him: "I have heard for a long time that 'Wu Mengde' has such a great sense of loyalty. My younger brother and others admire him." It's been a long time, but I didn't expect to come to rescue Xiaozhai today. I won't be able to repay this great kindness in this life or the next."
Cao Cao jumped off his horse, helped him up with a smile and said: "I have also heard the good names of 'Shenji Military Advisor' and 'Tiaojian Tiger' for a long time. We meet today, which shows that we have a lot of fate. You two must not talk about repaying kindness." , otherwise the brothers would feel uncomfortable getting along with each other."
Zhu Wu and Chen Da visited the other heroes one by one, expressing their admiration and gratitude.
At this time, Shi Wengong and Lu Zhishen relieved Sun An and entered the camp. Lu Zhishen boasted: "This 'dragon slayer' is really extravagant. Teacher Shi and I worked together to capture him."
Cao Cao praised: "This kind of martial arts is rare in the world! General Sun, I wonder what position you have in Huazhou?"
Sun An said: "Prefect He asked me to be the vanguard. The reason is that after meritorious service, I will be rewarded."
Cao Cao frowned and said, "Isn't that reasonable? If you put your ability here, who can't see it? If there is no military position, how can the generals below be willing to submit?"
Sun An sighed and said something.
It turned out that when he was in his hometown in Jingyuan, he killed two local tycoons in order to avenge his father. A lawsuit was issued to pursue him. Sun An had to abandon his family business and flee in the world. Later, he learned about a fellow villager with whom he had good connections. Qiao Lie, the "Illusion Demon Lord", is now renamed Qiao Daoqing. He is prosperous in Wei Shengzhou and is the confidant of the local tycoon Tian Hu, so he plans to get along with him.
When he arrived in Huazhou, because he was short of money, he simply took the remaining money and went to a gambling house to try his luck. However, he was deceived by the gambling boss. Sun An got angry and beat the casino to pieces. Twenty or thirty men fell to the ground. He got up and went to the court. He Taishou had just been assassinated by Shi Jin. Seeing that this man was a strong martial artist and a simple and honest man, he was immediately moved and thought to himself: If there is such a person to protect him, what will he gain and lose?
He pardoned his sins, gave him gold and silver, and sent him to lead officers and soldiers to attack the stronghold in Shaohua Mountain, promising that he would be guaranteed an official position after meritorious service.
After hearing what he said, Cao Cao sighed: "Brother, what's the old saying? It's better to lead a horse to a good man than to be a master of a bad man. Not to mention that the prefect He gave you a vanguard and a member of the Baibai tribe. He said that his evil deeds of bullying men and women and causing harm to the country and the people are not worthy of your service."
But Sun An didn't believe it: "Prefect He is very humble and speaks politely. How can he be the kind of person you mentioned?"
Zhu Wu listened to the words of the two of them and saw the clues. He stepped forward and said: "Brother Sun, it is said that it is difficult to paint the skin of a tiger but the bones. You know the face of a person but not the heart. You are a kind person, how can you see how sinister he is? Do you know that my brother Shi Jin is going to assassinate him after he has eaten enough? In fact, he has done evil things that are intolerable. I don’t want you to talk nonsense. Now there is a suffering master in my village. You will know it yourself when you ask. "
While ordering his minions to clean up the battlefield, he invited Cao Cao and others to go up the mountain.
Cao Cao walked around and looked around, and saw that the mountain was dangerous, with numerous exposed fortresses and hidden sentinels appearing one after another up and down. They were all masterpieces that relied on the terrain and were ingeniously crafted. The conditions echoed each other and were well organized. He couldn't help but nod to himself: if you peek at a small part, you can see the whole leopard. This "magic strategist" has extraordinary battle formation skills. No wonder he dares to go thousands of miles away to ask for help without any fear of delaying the opportunity to fight - this mountain is truly impregnable!
Not long after, they entered the main camp, and everyone was seated. Zhu Wu asked Wang Yi to come and see everyone, and told the governor He that he was greedy, cruel, harming the people, and taking advantage of women from good families. They were so angry that Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, Ruan Xiaoqi, etc. all gritted their teeth and wished they could congratulate him. The prefect was right in front of them, and everyone punched him to death.
After hearing this, Sun An was so angry that he clenched his fists. He never expected that the eunuch with gentle words and a kind smile would have such a cruel and vicious side! Meng Keli remembered something and asked hurriedly: "Brother, is your daughter tall, with fair skin and a black mole under the corner of her right eye?"
Wang Yi quickly said: "It looks like this, hero, how did you know?"
Sun An shook his head, with an unbearable look on his face, and spoke slowly.
When Wang Yi heard this, he fell backwards. Zhu Wu hurriedly helped him, and everyone in the hall became angry. Ruan Xiaoqi pulled out a single sword and slashed it on the ground, saying in a hateful voice: "If I don't chop this dog official, I will never do it." Go back to Liangshan!"
There are different teachings: reading the books of Confucius and Mencius in vain, the beasts and their clothes should be cut into pieces. The heroes were furious and the common people were in tears.
