    Standing on the battlefield littered with corpses, Bao Zhong sighed softly and said to Cao Ang: "Zixiu, actually you should satisfy Zhao Cen's desire to fight in a duel. With his little martial arts skills, we can find any number of soldiers in the army."  The general can kill him! Although it is easier for you to shoot him like this, if others find out, they will say you have no martial spirit!"

    Cao Ang said with a smile: "Uncle, Zhao Cen killed our Jiangdong Army soldiers, what qualifications do he have to challenge our generals?! Just shooting him like this is an advantage for him. If I didn't want to resolve the battle quickly, I would have to let the survivors survive."  The Jiangdong Army officers and soldiers will teach him a lesson!"

    When everyone heard this, they felt that what Cao Ang said was very reasonable, and their morale was even higher.

    At this time, Liao Hua and others kept walking downstream of Sishui Pass, making the defenders nervous.  In addition, Zhao Cen's troops were suddenly wiped out. Hu Zhen and Li Su thought that the main force of the Kwantung Allied Forces had arrived, so they not only closed the city gate tightly, but also ordered people to pile bricks and stones into the gate hole.

    Taking advantage of the opportunity of the enemy troops at Sishui Pass to guard the pass, Cao Ang quickly directed his soldiers to rescue supplies from the fire and count the seizures on the battlefield.  Especially those armors, all of which were stripped off the corpses by the soldiers and cleaned.

    After working for more than an hour, the materials seized during this expedition were finally tallied up. In this battle, more than 2,000 stones of food, 160 pairs of iron armor, more than 800 pairs of leather armor, and some logistical equipment were seized.

    Leather armor is secondary, iron armor is in short supply.  Cao Ang looked at the armored leader in front of him, his expression constantly changing.  Later, he sighed and ordered all the armor to be loaded into trucks and sent to Bao Zhong's army.

    Bao Zhong looked at the shiny black armor and couldn't put it down, stroking them with drool three feet long.  He was also a little embarrassed, and said with a sneer: "Zixiu, thanks to you this time, we achieved this great victory. These armored uncles can't take it all for themselves, let's split it half and half!"

    Cao Ang said with a smile: "Uncle, these armors are good, but my nephew can't enjoy them! You also know that my nephew is not rich now, how can he have the money to make iron armors?! If I equip my place with iron armor, others will not be able to enjoy it!"  You all have to say that I was a man of money and robbed Uncle Sun (Sun Jian)!

    " However, if these armors are equipped in your army, everyone will envy Uncle Yuncheng's strong strength and will not question you at all!  Even if Uncle Wentai has doubts, you can blame Hua Xiong. Didn't he escort three thousand prisoners into the city earlier? He must have moved a lot of supplies!  "

    Bao Zhong nodded repeatedly and patted the armors with a smile, "Let's do this, Zixiu, the rest of the captured materials will be yours. As long as uncle has these armors! If Sun Jian is really shameless and comes to ask about these materials, I will say  They were all moved away by Hua Xiong and the others! Can we still save him in vain? These are considered as our military expenses! By the way, Zixiu, how many defeated troops have we collected in total?"

    Cao Ang scratched his head and said, "I haven't received a specific report yet, but there are probably more than 10,000 people. Some soldiers fled to the old forest and will not be able to come back for a while. When the troops searched the baggage vehicles just now, they found more than a dozen soldiers there.  According to their account, more than 3,000 soldiers were captured by Hua Xiong and taken to Sishui Pass."

    Bao Zhong nodded, "This adds up to 13,000. Including the soldiers who died in the battle and escaped, it is probably about the same. You know, there are many soldiers who go to the battlefield once and never dare to go into battle again.  If you disarm, you will be considered a deserter. Anyway, these things will give Sun Jian a headache, so we don¡¯t need to worry about it. Let¡¯s take the opportunity to retreat before the defenders can react after closing the door!"

    Cao Ang also nodded, "Withdraw!"

    So that afternoon, when Hu Zhen, Hua Xiong and others realized that they had been deceived, Cao Ang and the others had already returned to their camp with the loot.

    As soon as Sun Jian heard the news of Cao Ang's return, he hurried over from the resettlement camp, saluted Cao Ang, and asked with concern: "My nephew, you are tired, how are you going?"

    Bao Zhong winked at Cao Ang and sat in the middle, not speaking at all.  Cao Ang could only smile and said: "My nephew was about to send someone to invite his uncle, but he didn't expect his uncle to come over on his own. When we arrived this morning, a large number of enemy troops gathered. After discussion with my uncle, I specially sent a partial division.  After a heavy price was paid for the sneak attack on Sishui Pass, the main force of the enemy army was mobilized. Uncle Shuyi led the armored guards into battle in person and repeatedly charged four or five times. Finally, Zhao Cen's troops were defeated in one fell swoop and  Zhao Cen beheaded him on the spot! It¡¯s a pity that the army¡¯s food and supplies were burned and moved by Na Hua Xiong and Li Su, so they are all gone!¡±

    Sun Jian frowned and said with a wry smile: "Thank you for your hard work this time, my dear nephew!"

    When he entered the camp, Sun Jian found Bao Zhong's standard armor from his guards, but he was rescued by others, so he had the nerve to ask for it.

     Cao Ang saw the regret and helplessness in Sun Jian's eyes and said quickly: "Uncle, we collected more than 10,000 defeated troops for you. Since you are here, please accept them later. To be honest, these of your men  The soldiers all have Wuyue accents, and it takes a lot of effort to listen!"

    When Sun Jian heard that he still had more than 10,000 men, he immediately forgot about the iron armor, rubbed his hands, and said loudly: "Actually, you also spent a lot of soldiers in the attack, so I will give you these 10,000 men."  Make some supplements!¡±

    Cao Ang was overjoyed and quickly handed over his hand, just about to say thanks.  But Sun Jian immediately said: "Zixiu, needless to say, I understand what you mean, and I know that you and Shuyi are embarrassed to ask for these soldiers of mine. Forget it, I won't make it difficult for you, since you can't understand their accents.  , then let me lead these soldiers! I will find some soldiers with northern accents to teach them. As soon as they can speak the northern dialect familiarly, I will hand them over to you immediately! By the way, since I will help you train them  They, the food and supplies during this period"

    Before he finished speaking, Bao Zhong suddenly coughed loudly, and said loudly while coughing: "Ahem Zixiu, these soldiers under your uncle Wentai are all Jiangdong people, how can they follow you?!

    ????????????????????????????????????????? You will hand over these people to Wentai later. As for the damage caused by our sending troops, I believe Brother Wentai will give us a satisfactory answer!

    People¡¯s hearts are not as good as they used to be. If we work so hard to send troops to rescue but get no benefit at all, even if we are willing, our soldiers will not agree!  "

    Seeing that Sun Jian was about to speak again, Bao Zhong coughed and said: "When I was charging into the formation, I was hit by a hammer in the back of my heart. Did it damage my lungs? Why are I coughing like this! Wentai, you go and receive the ulcer first.  Bing, Zixiu, give me some medicine."

    Cao Ang quickly helped Bao Zhong walk to the back tent. Sun Jian couldn't help but sigh when he saw that he didn't take advantage.  But thinking that he could regain more than ten thousand subordinates, his heart became eager again.

    However, Sun Jian soon learned the news that Huang Gai had been captured, and his mouth suddenly felt more bitter than eating coptis.  Among the four generals in his hand, Cheng Pu was seriously injured. Although he regained consciousness, he was unable to go into battle in the short term. Although Han Dang was only slightly injured, he had long since lost strength after fighting for so long, and his hands and feet are still weak now.  In addition, Huang Gai was captured and Zu Mao was killed, so he really had no one in his hands!

    Cao Ang, Bao Zhong, and Sun Jian had not been stationed here for long before Yuan Shao and the others learned about Sun Jian's defeat and Cao Ang's small victory, and quickly mobilized their army to go north to respond.

    The princes sat high in the tent, and Cao Ang told the situation of the battle one by one. He neither belittled Sun Jian nor deliberately promoted himself. He was very objective.  Moreover, Cao Ang also focused on describing the tenacious resistance of Sun Jian's troops in adversity, which moved the princes present.

    Sun Jian was very grateful for this and also said a few good words about Cao Ang.  Although he has some schemes, he is still an upright and upright man after all.  When talking about Zu Mao's death in battle, Sun Jian couldn't help but shed tears.

    Yuan Shao sighed and said to the princes: "Sun Wentai fought desperately, and Cao Zixiu rescued him bravely. Although our army is at a disadvantage in this battle, it is an honor to lose! Let's see, Wentai has suffered a great loss. Let's rescue him. We can't help him."  Let him bleed and shed tears. I, Yuan Shao, will sponsor him with five hundred elite soldiers and one hundred stones of food!"

    As soon as Yuan Shao said this, Yuan Shu, who was not willing to accept the defeat, immediately shouted: "I, Yuan Shu, also sponsored him with five hundred elite soldiers. However, Shouchun has had a good harvest recently, so I will send you two hundred shi of grain!"

    In Yuan Shu's view, Sun Jian can be regarded as half of his subordinates. Now is the most difficult time for him. His act of providing help in times of need will definitely earn Sun Jian's gratitude.  However, as Yuan Shao was the leader of the alliance, Yuan Shu's investment was actually higher than his. This made Yuan Shao very dissatisfied and couldn't help but groan.

    Then Liu Dai, Qiao Mao, Kong Rong and others offered to help. Some sent 300 soldiers and 100 shi of grain; some sent 200 soldiers and 50 shi of grain; some sent 400 soldiers, and some  Two hundred stones of grain.  In a word, everyone sent out troops and food together, and they were able to collect 4,000 soldiers and 1,500 shi of food for Sun Jian!

    With these soldiers and food, Sun Jian's troops will be able to quickly restore their combat strength.  Sun Jian bowed gratefully to all around and said loudly: "I, Sun Wentai, have no morals and incompetence, but everyone tried their best to help me. It really makes me ashamed! Without further ado, I, Sun Jian, know my shame and have the courage to do so. I am willing to seek the position of pioneer again!"  "

    Yuan Shao nodded repeatedly and said loudly: "This pioneer officer will be handed over to Brother Wentai!"

    After a pause, Yuan Shao said loudly: "This time, Zixiu was eager to avenge his father and persuaded Yuncheng to send troops without authorization. It is understandable. Moreover, after the defeat of Wentai, Zixiu and Shuyi were able to speed the army northward, which was very disappointing.  I¡¯m so touched! What¡¯s more, they also killed the bandit general Zhao Cen, which greatly boosted the morale of our army! Today, as the leader of the alliance, I specially reward Cao Ang with two hundred gold and five hundred stones of food!¡±

    ?When Cao Ang heard the reward, he quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully: "Cao Ang thanked the leader and is willing to go through fire and water for the leader without hesitation!"

    Yuan Shao was very satisfied with Cao Ang's statement. He stroked his beard and corrected it with a smile: "Zixiu, we are all here to please Dong Daye! Let's have a banquet today to calm down the Wentai and celebrate Zixiu. We will not return until we are drunk.  !¡±
