Chapter 14: Li Ru: Besides Jia Wenhe, who else could help Hua Xiong win a great victory?

"Hahahaha, this group of Guandong petty people, after today's event, it's enough for them to suffer!"

On horseback, Hua Xiong looked up to the sky and laughed loudly.

The last time he had such a satisfying battle was three years ago when he followed Boss Dong to pacify the rebellions of Bian Zhang, Han Sui, and Ma Teng.

That time, Bian Zhang, Han Sui, Ma Teng, and others stirred up a rebellion of one hundred thousand rebels in Liangzhou.

Besides that, they also called on the Qiang and Di tribes to provide support.

But this vast army of over one hundred thousand rebels was beaten into wailing ghosts and howling wolves by Dong Zhuo's army.

Hua Xiong, as the vanguard general, charged into the chaotic army like entering a land with no one.

This battle allowed Dong Zhuo to thoroughly establish his identity as the strongest warlord of the Great Han!

After that, the land west of the pass was almost entirely decided by Dong Zhuo.

As for now, the focus of the Xiliang Army had shifted to the capital.

They had no time to attend to the many affairs of Liangzhou.

Ma Teng, Han Sui, and others were thus able to continue developing stealthily in Liangzhou.

What was different from that battle was.

This battle of raiding the coalition camp was Hua Xiong's independent operation!

The battle achievements were enough to make him famous throughout the world.

However, Hua Xiong was a man who valued loyalty.

After returning to Sishui Pass, he immediately sent someone to write a battle report and send it to Luoyang.

In the battle report, Hua Xiong did not claim the battle achievements for himself.

Instead, he truthfully reported Gu Yi's strategy to Dong Zhuo and tried his best to recommend that Dong Zhuo highly value and use Gu Yi!

And after this battle.

Hua Xiong and the generals of Sishui Pass also officially accepted Gu Yi, treating him as one of their own.

Sishui Pass.

Gu Yi and Hua Xiong stood together on the gate tower.

Gazing at the Jiangdong army camp that had long since withdrawn not far away, Hua Xiong could not help but feel a bit regretful.

Originally, after they returned from raiding the coalition camp, they had intended to take the opportunity to finish off Sun Jian and the Jiangdong army that had been cut off from grain.

But what they did not expect was.

Sun Jian was also a person with great courage.

Risking the army's collapse due to lack of grain, Sun Jian had snatched the opportunity to withdraw from his original station before Hua Xiong and the Xiliang iron cavalry returned.

However, even if Sun Jian joined up with the other Guandong warlords next, both sides would harbor grudges.

Gu Yi's strategy of "abandoning Sun Jian and raiding the coalition camp" had caused extreme panic in the Guandong coalition.

More importantly, it had planted the seeds of mutual distrust in their hearts.

The Guandong warlords, who already harbored ulterior motives, would definitely uphold the beautiful tradition of "selling out teammates to save themselves" when encountering difficulties in order to preserve their strength.

Of course, if it were only to this degree, how could that be enough?

Sishui Pass, for Gu Yi, was merely a small test of his skills.

The coalition forces would not withdraw in a short time.

Then, in order to boost their low morale.

They would most likely take Hulao Pass, which was mentioned alongside Sishui Pass, as their next target of attack! ===== CHAPTER 15 =====
