Speaking of this victory, it was quite accidental.

Sun Jian's victory further implemented one sentence.

I am not afraid of the divine opponents that are difficult to deal with, but I am afraid of the pig teammates who are dragging me down.

Sun Jian led his army to kill at night, and Dong Zhuo's army suffered a great loss. Hu Zhen, who had no choice but to escape, ran away in a panic and felt that it was not interesting. He felt that something was wrong and someone was making trouble.

As a result, when Hu Zhen fled back to Luoyang and planned to appeal to Dong Zhuo, he was punished to be removed from his post and imprisoned him.

Lu Bu and others fled back first and accused Dong Zhuo of Hu Zhen of the rash advancement and refusal to listen to the loyal and kind words, which led to great defeat.

The so-called three people became tigers, and they had preconceived ideas. Dong Zhuo was furious and immediately ordered Hu Zhen to be dismissed and put him in prison and wait for punishment.

Although Lu Bu and others achieved their goals, this failure was not the result that Dong Zhuo wanted to see.

Sun Jian, who defeated Hu Zhen, could continue to advance to Dagu Pass, and his side was very dangerous. Attacking on both sides was a taboo in military strategists.

Are you really going to leave Luoyang?

Dong Zhuo did not give up and did not want to give up the land, so he used the same trick again and sent someone to persuade Sun Jian to surrender.

The words used were the same as those used when I persuaded Guo Peng to surrender. They were all fake clichés, and then they made a lot of benefits.

Sun Jian was furious.

"How dare the traitors in the country insult me!! If you don't kill the three tribes, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart!"

Sun Jian drove Dong Zhuo's envoy away, led his army to rectify, and then headed towards Oguchi Pass.

The news of Sun Jian's victory came back to Luyang. Yuan Shu was very happy, but before he could be happy for a long time, someone whispered in Yuan Shu's ear.

"Sun Jian himself has great reputation and an army. If Sun Jian is allowed to gain Luoyang with great power, how can he be restricted by the general? If he lets him develop, wouldn't he be eliminated and a tiger be added?

I heard the ancients say that raising beasts should not be filled first. If raising them first, the beasts will run away before they are hunted. If the beasts are hungry, they will realize the importance of relying on people. This is how tigers like Sun Jian should be treated."

Yuan Shu has a relatively soft ear and a not firm stance. He often does things on a whim. When he hears it, he feels that what he says makes sense.

So Yuan Shu agreed to stop providing Sun Jian with military rations and cut off Sun Jian's food route.

Sun Jian was attacking in the direction of Dagu Pass. Suddenly, he learned that no food had been transported, and he was shocked and sent someone to see the situation. He found that no one had intercepted his food route, so he knew that something was wrong with Yuan Shu.

Sun Jian's people in Yang were more than 100 miles away from Yuan Shu's residence in Luyang. Sun Jian was extremely anxious not to get food, so he rode a horse straight to Luyang to pay homage to Yuan Shu overnight.

In front of Yuan Shu, Sun Jian was very excited.

"Why did the general stop issuing my military rations?"

"Don't the general know the importance of military rations?"

"How can I march without military rations? How can I attack Dong Zhuo?"

"My Sun Jian and Dong Zhuo do not have a deep hatred. Is it for me to attack Dong Zhuo for the sake of the country and the general's personal grudge? "

"Now I threaten Luoyang from the southern line, General Guo threatens Luoyang from the Arctic Pass, and is about to form a force of attack on both sides, so he can force Dong Zhuo to fight on both sides, and his winning rate has increased greatly. Now it is time to succeed, and the general actually listens to slander and doubts me. This is something that makes the righteous men in the world feel disappointed and happy to Dong Zhuo!"

"The current situation is the same as Wu Qi shed tears and Le Yi's success is coming to an end! At the critical moment, the general must make a decision immediately! Don't hesitate! Should I fight this battle? Should I eliminate Dong Zhuo? Please give me an accurate statement immediately!"

Sun Jian pressed step by step, Yuan Shu was already ashamed. At this time, Sun Jian could not even raise his head when he was told through the great principles.

Yuan Shu, whose ears are soft, his stance is easy to change, and his mind is prone to fever, was eaten again.

Yuan Shu originally wanted Sun Jian to realize his importance and hit Sun Jian, but Sun Jian's momentum was too strong and Yuan Shu couldn't help but admit his mistake.

The result was of course that Yuan Shu immediately allocated military rations to Sun Jian. Sun Jian was not vague and immediately returned to the front line, leading his troops to continue to advance, threatening Dong Zhuo's southern defense line.

At this time, on September 18, Guo Peng had already left the Arc deputy pass and marched towards Gong County. He also learned that Dong Zhuo sent his generals Dong Yue and Niu Fu to lead 20,000 troops to Gong County to guard his attack.

On September 20, Guo Peng arrived fifteen miles east of Gong County and led his troops to attack the surrounding area of ​​Gong County.

Guo Peng sent generals to scatter the attack on the military facilities and camps set up by Dong Zhuo's army around Gong County, and the offensive was rapid.

Niu Fu and Dong Yue both believed that Guo Peng was a child with a reputation. They despise Guo Peng, and did not listen to Dong Zhuo's warnings and took the initiative to send troops to fight Guo Peng.

Guo Peng's army had just won the victory, eliminated his fear of the Western Liang army and gained a psychological advantage. It was when the morale was so strong that he also led a powerful general like Guan, Zhang, Zhao and Gongsun. In less than an hour of fighting, the number of Liangzhou troops completely collapsed.

After a great battle, Guo Peng led his army to clear all the military auxiliary facilities around Gong County, fill in the pits, and stop pulling them away, clearing out obstacles to advance.

Dong Zhuo's morale was low. Niu Fu and Dong Yue could not resist Guo Peng's troops and could only accept failure. They left behind thousands of corpses, contracted their defense lines, and placed their defensive forces mainly in and around Gong County to block Guo Peng's advance westward.

At the same time, Niu Fu adopted the suggestion of his subordinate Jia Xu, and he would not stick to it, not take the initiative to engage in battles, fight defensive battles, and do not fight in field battles.

The Liangzhou Corps, which was best at fighting in the field, could not resist the attacking army's troops and was unable to fight, so they were forced to fight a defensive battle.

In fact, before the battle was fought, Jia Xu advised Niu Fu to lead his army to strictly guard Gongxian and not go out to fight, and to fight defensive wars instead of field battles.

Jia Xu believes that Guo Peng has just won a great victory and the army is highly morale and cannot be confronted head-on.

On the other hand, the Liangzhou army was depressed and it was difficult to persevere in the frontal battlefield, so it was recommended that Niu Fu and Dong Yue take advantage of their logistical advantages to fight a protracted war.

Jia Xu believed that doing so could drag down Guo Peng's logistics and achieve the effect of defeating others without fighting.

However, Dong Yue and Niu Fu both felt a little frustrated. Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and others opposed it, threatening to fight Guo Peng to the death to defend the majesty of the Prime Minister Dong.

Jia Xu's suggestion was not adopted, and the Liangzhou army expanded its defense scope and fought in full swing, and was then defeated by Guo Peng's command of the army on the whole line.

Li Jue was almost stabbed to death by Zhang Fei, Guo Si was chased by Guan Yu and ran away desperately, and Zhang Ji's personal guards were killed by Zhao Yun.

Jia Xu led his troops to stop the Gongsun brothers' assault, and fired arrows with all his might. The arrows were as raining as the attackers slowed down. He finally covered the retreat of the three men, then gathered the defeated troops, and then returned to Gongxian to guard.

When Li Jue and Guo Si and Zhang Jijing were defeated, they dared not underestimate Guo Peng's army and generals. They hurried around Gong County and refused to go out to fight.

Jia Xu's suggestion was finally adopted. Niu Fu and Dong Yue knew about Guo Peng's power and no longer sought to confront him head-on, but directly turned to defensive operations.

Guo Peng led his troops to attack Gongxian, and ten thousand arrows were fired at once. The army filled the gully with a large shield, pushed the well railing and carried the cloud ladder to attack the city wall. The offensive was extremely fierce.

Niu Fu and Dong Yue commanded the army to defend the enemy. Guo Peng had no choice but to take Gong County in one go, so he could only retreat for more than ten miles to set up camp.

A few days later, Guo Peng kept sending troops to challenge, and the defenders of Gong County refused to fight. Guo Peng could only continue to send troops to attack, but the effect was limited.

Although the effect was limited, Guo Peng's army was very morale, while Dong Zhuo's soldiers in Gong County were in panic all day long. Faced with Guo Peng's attack of sending people to shoot arrows into the city, they never dared to come out to fight, but just passive defense.

Although Guo Peng took the initiative, Guo Peng failed to make a breakthrough in one fell swoop against Guancheng in Gong County.

If they concealed with force, there would be no good way for them to do it. After all, it would not be a day or two for them to lack the means of siege.

Guo Peng feels that he is good at field battles and short of siege.

Guo Peng is not afraid of anyone in the field battle. He has been in the seven-year battlefield career. No matter who he is, he dares to fight with his troops face to compete with him to compete with him.

However, in terms of siege, facing the absolute advantage of the defending party, no matter how good the command ability is, it can only bring a very limited impact. This is not subject to human will. There are too many uncertain factors.

Guo Peng was upset about this and felt that the development of new siege equipment was urgent.

When he was in Qingzhou, Guo Peng had already realized his weakness in this area, so he gathered more than 500 senior carpenters in the three master manors and asked them to study the siege machine, a siege killing weapon that once appeared in the Warring States Period but was inexplicably lost.

Then Guo Peng, who knew nothing about carpentry, demonstrated the principle of leverage to them, and there was no other way.

Theory is theory, and reality is reality. How to operate depends on professional talents. Guo Peng, who knows the truth but not the reason, can only make a fuss. For details, Guo Peng has no choice but to do anything about this.

Things like the Death Thunder can only be used to scare people and horses in field battles. The lethality is basically negligible, and it depends entirely on sounds. It has almost no use in siege battles. Guo Peng did not continue to make it, but focused on studying the siege machine.

The development of new weapons was not so easy. A group of carpenters studied for several months, but the results were limited. Guo Peng couldn't wait, so he led his troops to attack Dong Zhuo.

At this moment, the news brought by the grain-enhancing messenger who came back from the sour jujube confirmed Guo Peng's previous speculation.

He had no food and grass to continue to obtain.

Although he had expected that he had been mentally prepared, he couldn't help but want to laugh when he really encountered it.

There was ridiculous turmoil in the Sour Jujube Camp.

Mr. Guo finally realized how philosophical the saying that he is not afraid of a god-like opponent but is afraid of a pig-like teammate.
