Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 296 Xu Rong Was Captured
When the food and grass entered the city, it was natural to send someone to announce the good news to Xu Rong for such a big happy event. Zhang Shun handled things carefully. He wrote down everything about Wu Qian and the food transport team in detail, and sent people to Guangping overnight. county.

Xu Rong, who was stationed in Guangping County, got the good news before dawn.

"I didn't expect that Wu Gan was quite capable, and he even knew how to lead the grain transportation team around Guangping County!" Xu Guang put the blame on Wu Gan yesterday, but now he heard that the grain and grass had entered the city, he felt a little ashamed.

Xu Rong felt a lot more relaxed at the moment. Although Wu Gan lost Guangping County because of a detour, a city can be regained at any time, which is more important than food and grass.

But Xu Rong heard that only half of the grain had entered the city and the rest was still in Ruyang, so he thought he had to find a way to clear the way for the grain transportation team.

From Ruyang to Liang County, Guangping County is separated, even if they take a detour, they may be discovered by bandit soldiers.

"How about this, divide half of your troops here to keep an eye on this group of bandits. If they come out of the city to harass, the food delivery team will kill them for me. If the bandits can't shrink back, you don't need to attack by force. Remember everything is safe." Focus on food and grass."

After Xu Rong explained to his cousin, he immediately rushed back with more than 6000 people, because he always felt that Zhu Jun was still staring at Liang County on Laojun Peak.

Now that Liang County has brought in grain and grass, there must be no loss.

Xu Rong led his troops in a hurry and came to the woods where Xu Guang was laid down yesterday.

"This dense forest is a good place for Tibetan soldiers to ambush, but it's a pity that Zhu Jun should be at Laojun Peak, and those bandits who came around are now nailed to Guangping County."

"...Hehe, if there is a strong army ambushing the two sides at this time, then I, Xu Rong, may be planted here today!"

Xu Rong didn't know why he suddenly had such an inappropriate emotion. Could it be that he was a little too nervous because there were only [-] soldiers around him?

But after thinking about it, my cousin repelled tens of thousands of bandits with only 3000 people yesterday, which shows how weak the bandits are.

So even if Zhu Jun came here with 6000 main forces to set up an ambush, he would definitely not be able to defeat his [-] men.

After passing the woods and reaching a corner, the former army suddenly stopped, Xu Rong was taken aback, and asked his subordinates why they didn't stop.

I heard someone shouting in front: "Report... the general is not good, there is a group of bandits blocking the way!"

Xu Rong only thought it was funny when he heard that, these bandits were too brainless, they had to block the way while not using the perfect ambush spot just now.

"There is nothing to be afraid of mere thieves, come forward and destroy them!"

Xu Rong just finished speaking, only to hear countless bowstrings ringing, and then countless arrows went straight to the top of the 6000 people's heads.

Seeing the dense arrows above his head, Xu Rong was startled.

This is definitely not an ordinary bandit soldier. Bows and arrows are controlled weapons. Even if ordinary bandit soldiers have bows, they will not save too many sharp arrows. Even Zhu Jun's main force cannot shoot so many arrows in one go.

"Quick... the whole army disperses and hides!"

Xu Rong's voice was still not as good as the arrows that flew down at high speed, and he lost one-third of his fighting strength just by the rain of arrows.

After the three rounds of arrow rain, there was a deafening sound of killing.

Now Xu Rong finally felt scared.

Xu Rong didn't expect to encounter such a large number of regular army sneak attacks here, and the archery skills of the leader on the opposite side made him even more frightened.

I saw the military general around 40 years old, holding an iron-tired bow without missing a shot.

Xu Rongsheng was afraid of being seen by the opponent, so he could only pull the pawn in front of him to prevent being locked on the target.

Fortunately, the general didn't have many arrows in his hand. After shooting, he put the iron tire bow behind his back, picked up the Fengzui knife and rushed into the crowd.

At this time Xu Rong discovered that the enemy generals were not only good at arrows, but also frighteningly strong at swordsmanship.

Under the leadership and charge of the general, Xu Rongjun was quickly beaten and retreated steadily. In a blink of an eye, there were less than 3000 of the [-] soldiers left.

In order to slow down the defeat, Xu Rong had no choice but to fight with the saber in hand, and after a face-to-face encounter with the opponent, his hands were numb from the shock, and he almost lost the long saber in his hand.

Xu Rong was taken aback again, such divine power is rare in the world, even compared to that Lu Fengxian is not much weaker!
Xu Rong's force is 85, a quasi-first-class general, but he didn't expect to meet an unknown super fierce general here.

"Who is coming? Report your name!"

"I am under the account of the governor of Jingzhou, so is Huang Zhong!"

Xu Rong had never heard of who Huang Zhong was, but knowing that it was soldiers from Jingzhou who ambushed him, Xu Rong immediately planned to retreat.

Jingzhou soldiers are different from bandit soldiers, and Xu Rong is afraid that the whole army will be wiped out if they continue to fight.

"The whole army retreats...run to Guangping County!"

Suffering three rounds of arrow rain in a row, Xu Rongjun suffered heavy losses, and his morale was destroyed in an instant.

The number of Jingzhou soldiers blocking the way was nearly [-], and the enemy general Huang Zhong was even more brave and invincible. Xu Rong was afraid that if he did not give an order to retreat, he might not have a chance to escape.

After turning around and fleeing not far away, Xu Rong and the few remaining men came to the side of the dense forest, Xu Rong felt guilty for a while looking at the unfathomable forest.

"Fight for me! Capture Xu Rong alive!" A loud voice came from the dense forest, and then heard countless shouts of killing, rushing out from the depths of the forest like ferocious beasts.

Sure enough, soldiers and horses were ambushed in this dense forest, and this sudden change completely defeated the last psychological defense line of this group of defeated soldiers.

Many soldiers gave up resistance and fled, kneeling on the ground waiting to be taken in by the captives. Xu Rong cut down several people in a row but still couldn't stop his men from surrendering.

And not only was there an ambush in the dense forest, but also countless heads appeared in the grass on the opposite side. The pursuers were approaching behind them, and there were ambushes on both sides. Xu Rong could no longer command the soldiers under his command.

"General Xu Rong, you should surrender!" A refined voice came from the opposite side.

Finally, an enemy appeared at the last gap, and Xun Yu and Zhu Jun led five thousand soldiers to block Xu Rongjun's escape route.

Now Xu Rong finally gave up, he was surrounded on all sides and he couldn't escape even with his wings.

"I can surrender, but who will tell me who set up today's situation? Is it Liu Biao, governor of Jingzhou?"

Xu Rongbai was so convinced that he wanted to be a fool when he died, so how could he surrender with doubts.

He had just escaped from the Jingzhou general Huang Zhong, and now he saw that the person ambush in the dense forest turned out to be Liu Pan.

The two had met in the case of a mysterious wealthy businessman, and Liu Pan's uncle Liu Biao had officially broken with Dong Zhuo, so at this moment Xu Rong suspected that all of this was caused by Jingzhou Liu Biao.

But Liu Pan snorted coldly, and replied: "We in Jingzhou are only here to help, and someone else designed this matter!"

Xu Rong was a little surprised. Since it wasn't Liu Biao, it seemed that it was Zhu Jun's trick.

But before Xu Rong turned around, Zhu Jun waved his hand first, "I'm also here to help, the person who made the plan to capture you alive is this Mr. Xun Yu beside me!"

Xun Yu?The palace guard Xun Yu!How could it be him?
Xu Rong was a little confused now, he thought he didn't have any deep hatred with Xun Yu or the Xun family, so how could Xun Yu plan to deal with him!
unless……

"It's the royalists who asked you to deal with me!" Xu Rong snorted coldly, thinking he had finally found the mastermind behind the scenes.

Xun Yu also shook his head and said, "I am not a royalist, but I came to destroy your army under the orders of my lord."

"What a big breath!"

Although Xu Rong was captured, there are still [-] elites in Liang County, and there is enough food and grass. It is absolutely no problem to stick to Luoyang for reinforcements.

But this is no longer a question that he, a prisoner, needs to consider. At this moment, he just wants to know who is going to deal with him.

"Who is your lord?"

Not a royalist, but able to find Jingzhou and Zhu Jun for help, Xu Rong felt that this mysterious figure must have an extraordinary status.

Xun Yu said with a smile: "Actually, the relationship between my lord and General Xu is pretty good. I heard from my lord that the first person he saw when he returned to Luoyang was General Xu, and that day General Xu sent someone to the alley in the south of the city to see him off." A cart full of food..."

"...So before I came here, my lord specifically told me not to hurt General Xu's life!"

The more Xu Rong heard it, the more shocked he became. How could he feel that the lord Xun Yu was talking about seemed to be the King of Zhongshan... Liu Yu!
