Chapter 369 Deceiving the Entry of Yanmen Pass? Guo Jia: I'll make you see through my scheme!
"So you're the one called Hu Chuquan?"
Hu Chuquan had just opened his eyes when he was greeted by Cao Cao's "loving blow"!
The kick landed squarely on Hu Chuquan, enough to keep him from getting up for a while.
After kicking, Cao Cao clapped his hands.
Dian Wei and Xu Chu stepped forward and gave Hu Chuquan a brutal beating!
Poor Hu Chuquan, he had just woken up, but then fainted again.
When he woke up again, Cao Cao's generals surrounded him menacingly.
Hao Zhao held a long knife, as if he were about to slaughter a pig, and gestured to indicate which piece of flesh from Hu Chuquan's body would be better to cut off.
Su Yu walked in, accompanied by several Southern Xiongnu prisoners.
The prisoners briefly recounted what had happened to Huchuquan.
In short, Great Chanyu, you are now a qualified prisoner of Cao Cao's camp!
Don't even think about escaping, or I'll cut you up and send you to the palace to become a eunuch!
Hu Chuquan was so frightened that his soul almost left his body.
People who are all bark and no bite are like that; they seem tough on the surface, but are actually incredibly cowardly.
Immediately afterwards, Hu Chuquan chose to surrender.
Yes, the mighty Great Chanyu of the Southern Xiongnu actually surrendered in public!
Su Yu didn't even need to force him.
Huchuquan proactively revealed all the detailed information, such as why he led the Southern Xiongnu army south and the exact number of people he brought, as if pouring beans from a bamboo tube.
"Heh, besides the defeated soldiers, there are still 30,000 troops stationed at Yanmen Pass, right?"
A ruthless glint appeared in Su Yu's eyes.
Zhang Liao and Guo Jia have already led 5,000 Bingzhou wolf cavalry towards Yanmen Pass.
With Guo Jia around, that Liu Bao is no match at all.
after all.
No matter how bad Liu Bao is, can he be as bad as Guo Jia, one of the "Four Poisons of Cao Cao's Camp"?
……
Yanmen Pass
Liu Bao counted on his fingers and smiled contemptuously:
"Speaking of which, it's been almost a month since the Great Chanyu left Yanmen Pass, hasn't it?"
"I wonder how the battle is going."
"Given the Great Chanyu's abilities, he must have already captured Jinyang and is about to invade the entire territory of Bingzhou."
Before he could finish speaking, several of Liu Bao's trusted men immediately responded:
"Left Wise King, you are mistaken."
"The Great Khan is still at Juxi Pass!"
"Oh no, it's that we never even captured Juxi Pass."
Upon hearing this, Liu Bao burst into laughter.
Although he had known for a long time that Huchuquan had never captured Juxi Pass.
But having such a conversation with his trusted subordinates every day, like a theatrical performance, made Liu Bao feel refreshed.
"It's really boring to be stationed here at Yanmen Pass."
"Once I am powerful enough, I will move the royal court to Bingzhou and let my Southern Xiongnu completely occupy this land."
Liu Bao thought to himself.
In ancient feudal dynasties, wars between nomadic and agricultural peoples were almost unavoidable.
Nomadic peoples have many livestock, but their food supply is pitifully small.
Moreover, every winter, not to mention livestock, the entire grassland is barren, and there is not even food to be found!
Agricultural societies are skilled at farming, and their living environments are much warmer than those of nomadic societies.
Nomadic peoples naturally set their sights on agricultural peoples.
Throughout history, this problem has been difficult to resolve fundamentally.
For a unified dynasty, venturing into the grasslands was a luxury.
Moreover, what about the chaotic world where the country has not yet been unified?
Of course, throughout history, there are very few families as disgraceful as the Sima family.
At this moment, Liu Bao set his sights on Bingzhou.
Little did he know, Zhang Liao and Guo Jia had also set their sights on him.
Marching Camp
Guo Jia suggested to Zhang Liao:
"General Wenyuan, the Left Wise King Liu Bao, who is stationed at Yanmen Pass, is said to be much smarter than that scoundrel Huchuquan, the Great Chanyu."
"He has 30,000 troops under his command. It would probably not be the best strategy for the two of us to force our way through."
"I have a plan, but it carries certain risks. I wonder if you, Wen Yuan, dare to carry it out?"
Zhang Liao immediately patted his chest and said:
“Mr. Fengxiao, please speak freely.”
"Leave the charge to me, Zhang Liao."
"I will listen to all your suggestions and advice."
This is the first time Zhang Liao has properly teamed up with Guo Jia.
But he was shrewd and knew that Guo Jia was someone who usually hung out with Su Yu.
Yes, Jia Xu was also hanging out with Su Yu.
Any one of these three could be used to kill the enemy!
Not to mention, after infiltrating Yuan's camp for a period of time, Guo Jia had already mastered the techniques of infiltration.
Liu Bao is nothing but a piece of trash!
Guo Jia then informed Zhang Liao of the plan.
Zhang Liao listened with great interest and was eager to try.
Soon, following Guo Jia's plan, Zhang Liao led his troops to attack the supply train that had set off from Yanmen Pass!
Although Liu Bao had long harbored resentment towards Hu Chuquan, the powerful chieftain.
However, Liu Bao did not withhold any of the grain and fodder that was supposed to be provided to Huchuquan.
In some ways, Liu Bao can be considered a good teammate.
Unfortunately, Hu Chuquan has two arms!
……
Yanmen Pass
Liu Bao, who was already fast asleep, suddenly received a report from his personal guards.
"Reporting to the Left Wise King, the grain transport team that our army set off yesterday afternoon has appeared below the pass."
"A grain transport team?"
Liu Bao's eyes widened, a bad feeling flashing through his mind.
The grain transport team was tasked with delivering grain from Yanmen Pass to Juxi Pass to supply the 120,000-strong army under Huchuquan's command.
Following the normal route, it would take at least half a month to make a round trip.
Therefore, Liu Bao dispatched a grain transport team every five days.
The group that set off yesterday afternoon could not possibly have made it back to Yanmen Pass by nightfall.
With this in mind, Liu Bao took a torch and went up to the city wall.
In the firelight, Liu Bao saw the true face of the grain transport captain below the city.
Clearly, the team leader is still the same person who set off yesterday afternoon.
But Liu Bao felt something was amiss.
The next moment, the grain transport team leader, following the script Guo Jia had taught him, spoke with Liu Bao.
Although they were speaking the Xiongnu language, the other Southern Xiongnu soldiers around Guo Jia could naturally help him discern whether the grain transport captain was up to any tricks.
If you try to play tricks, you'll die.
However, whether or not tricks are used is irrelevant.
Because Guo Jia never expected this grain transport team to trick them into opening the city gates!
Liu Bao wasn't so easily fooled; he wouldn't readily agree to let the grain transport team enter the city.
"So, your grain was intercepted by troops sent by that brute Huchuquan halfway through the journey?"
"Heh, do you really think I'm a fool?"
"You dare to try and fool me with such a clumsy scheme?"
as predicted.
Liu Bao saw through the lie of the grain transport team leader and prepared to order the man to be shot!
But that's it.
The sudden change!
All that could be seen was Liu Bao's head, like a huge lump of dough, rolling down the city wall in a parabolic arc!
