Chapter Fifty-Four: Teach You to Be Full, and People and Animals Will Be Lost!
The hero beats the horse from afar, the dusk falls, the barbarians are broken, who asks, who is the opponent in the world, the big husband should leave a name, and go down in history!
This is an ancient ballad that Zhang Yi heard on the way to take office in Bingzhou, so he specially chose to rush to Yanmen Pass at dusk and sunset. www.biquge.info In Zhang Yi's view, Zhang Zhong is dead, and Yan believes that it is difficult for him to stand alone, only he can fight with the Xianbei people, and this famous hero in the ancient ballad is naturally him.
Zhang Yi still admired Zhang Zhong a little in his heart, with less than 30,000 people, he withstood the onslaught of the Xianbei people for a month, and so far there has not been a single deserter who abandoned the pass and left, if it were him, he would definitely not be able to do these two things.
The city wall south of Yanmen Pass was empty, and it should have been all transferred to the north to block the Xianbei people.
Zhang Yi flipped off the horse, handed the horse rope to a cronie, and personally stepped forward to buckle the ring of the city gate, and made three or two crisp and pleasant metallic sounds.
Zhang Yi was quite excited at the moment, he could already imagine a series of scenes of the soldiers in the Guannai cheering to welcome the arrival of the hero.
The door slowly opened, Zhang Yi outside the gate was smiling, and the people who opened the door inside the gate were also laughing.
When he saw the old man who opened the door, the smile on Zhang Yi's face instantly froze, and he almost blurted out: "Zhang Zhong, you didn't ......"
The word 'death' reached his throat and he swallowed it back alive.
In contrast, Zhang Zhong was extremely happy, stepped forward and took Zhang Yi's wrist cordially, and said with concern: "Oh, Lord Assassin Shi, why did you personally lead the army, just leave this kind of trivial matter to your subordinates." If you have to make a mistake on the way, the old man is really to blame! ”
Hearing Zhang Zhong's 'caring' words, Zhang Yi's heart was even more disgusting than eating a dead fly, but he couldn't have a seizure, so he could only pretend to be angry, and said impassionedly: "Xianbei people went south to invade my rivers and mountains, and this official is the assassin of the state, how can he sit idly by." Although this official is only a literati, he also understands the righteousness of his family and country, and it is incumbent upon him to expel the Xianbei people from the state and return my Han rivers and mountains! ”
"Good!"
The old general stroked his beard with his left hand and praised it, "I don't want to stab Lord Shi to have such a mind, the General's Mansion is in front, let's talk while walking." ”
After speaking, Zhang Zhong glared at the two middle-aged men wearing military armor next to him, and said angrily: "Cheng Zhi, Cai Xia, what are you two still doing stupidly, I didn't see Lord Thorn Shi running around and working all the way, so don't you hurry up and arrange the soldiers to their respective posts." ”
The two remaining middle-aged generals hurriedly nodded yes and got busy.
When Zhang Yi heard this, he secretly screamed badly, and wondered in his heart, this old thing wants to take over my army, so where can it be. So he hurriedly said: "Old general, this doesn't bother you......"
Zhang Yi was directly interrupted by Zhang Zhong before he finished speaking, "Hey, Lord Assassin Shi is really too polite, you and I both work for the imperial court, and we are a family, so why not divide you and me." Besides, the military affairs of the state have always been the old man's final say, so please relax! ”
Zhang Zhong had a bright smile on his face, but Zhang Yi was very aggrieved in his heart.
He opened his mouth and found that he had nowhere to refute. It was not easy to collect the 20,000 horses under his command, but Zhang Zhong, the old thing, really didn't treat himself as an outsider, and asked for all the more than 20,000 horses with a cheeky mouth, without even leaving a drop of soup for himself.
In fact, from the moment he saw Zhang Zhong open the door, Zhang Yi knew that most of his careful plans were in vain, and in addition to being sad and indignant, he couldn't help but curse Zhang Zhong several times for 'early death and early superbirth'. However, it is true that as Zhang Zhong said, Zhang Zhong has the final say on the military transfer of the state, and he is only responsible for monitoring and reporting the situation to the imperial court, and if he interferes in Zhang Zhong's arrangement, it will be regarded as overstepping his authority.
The old general pulled Zhang Yi and walked to the general's mansion, looking at the posture, it was like a father and son who had reunited after a long absence.
Zhang Yi was a literati, how could he break free from Zhang Zhong's strength, and he called a dumb person to eat yellow lotus in his heart, so he could only be dragged to the general's mansion helplessly.
Without Zhang Yi's opposition, others naturally did not dare to stop it, and Cheng Zhi and Cai Xia Er smoothly incorporated the 23,000 soldiers into the group.
Those Zhang Yi's henchmen and generals instantly became imaginary generals with no one under their accounts, and the 20,000 soldiers were originally transferred by Zhang Zhong from various counties to garrison Yanmen Pass, Zhang Yi changed generals halfway, and these newly replaced generals did not have much prestige on the soldiers.
Lu Bu was arranged by Zhang Zhong in the north and failed to meet Zhang Yi, the assassin. He had suggested to Zhang Zhong that when Zhang Yi entered the city, he could set up an ambush to kill Zhang Yi, and if Zhang Zhong was worried about the crime, Lu Bu would not mind taking matters into his own hands.
Zhang Yi's refusal to help the Yanmen Pass made it clear that he was bent on putting Zhang Zhong and others to death, according to Lu Bu, if people harm me, I will get rid of them.
The old general failed to agree, and also told Lu Bu not to act rashly, many things cannot be completely solved by a simple word 'kill'. In order to prevent Lu Bu from making any moves, Lu Bu was specially arranged at the north gate today.
The old general didn't want to get rid of Zhang Yi, so Lu Bu didn't persuade him again, maybe the old general had his own thoughts.
As long as Zhang Yi and the Zheng family didn't take the initiative to find trouble for themselves, Lu Bu didn't bother to deal with them anymore.
In the open space in the north of the city, more than 1,000 wolf cavalry battalion soldiers sat in a phalanx, Lu Bu was gesturing his hands, explaining practical fighting skills to them, but suddenly heard a slightly old voice behind him: "You, you are Lu Bu, the captain of Beiguang, right?" ”
Lu Bu turned around, and an old man came over with his hands behind his back, with a thin face, black and white hair, and several long tail lines at the corners of his squinted eyes, giving people a feeling of unfriendliness.
What's more, the old man was wearing a civil and official brocade uniform, and his official rank was above Lu Bu.
Lu Bu didn't know this person, nodded and asked, "My lord, what are you looking for me?" ”
The old man saw Lu Bu nodding, and said coldly: "Captain Lu is a poor man, and if he can climb to today's position, he must have killed countless people and used vicious methods." ”
The old man's words were full of provocation.
Lu Bu raised his eyebrows, looked at the old man, his tone was also cold, and he shot back: "My lord, Bu heard that being old and not dying is a thief, why are you old and not dying?" ”
The old man's face changed suddenly, and then he covered it up very well, how could he, who had been in the officialdom for a long time, be angry because of Lu Bu's words, the old man asked lightly: "Does Captain Lu still remember Zheng You?" ”
As soon as the old man's words came out, Lu Bu instantly understood his identity.
And don't drive in the state, Zheng Song. is also the father of Zheng You, the captain of Hengdu, who died at the hands of Lu Bu.
Cao Xinghuoran, who was sitting on the ground, stood up, looked at Zheng Song twice, and stepped forward and said, "It turned out to be you, an old fellow, your son has a ghost in his heart, and he deserves to die!" ”
The old man glanced at Cao Xing and sneered: "A little military marquis, dare to speak to me in such a tone? ”
Cao Xing took a step forward and said impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, old fellow, I killed your son, something is coming at me!" ”
Song Xian, who has always been silent, also stood up, and didn't even distinguish between Zheng Mu and Zheng You, so he said: "Cao Xing, you were already in a coma at that time, and I killed the person." ”
"Okay, don't be a hero for both of you, I, Hou Cheng, do things by yourself!" Not to be outdone, Hou Cheng interjected.
The wolf cavalry battalion soldiers behind him collectively stood up and shouted as well.
"I killed it!"
"Fart, it's obvious that Lao Tzu slaughtered it casually!"
"You fucking want to rob me of my prestige, don't listen to them, old man, your son, I killed you!"
The soldiers of the wolf cavalry battalion scrambled to speak, many of them had witnessed the scene in Lao County, Zheng You's death was purely a chicken steal, no wonder others.
Have you ever seen thousands of people fighting each other for the title of a capital crime?
When Lu Bu saw that so many brothers were willing to bear the blame for themselves, an indescribable feeling suddenly welled up in his heart.
Lu Bu pressed his hand, and the soldiers who were arguing behind him were instantly silent. Lu Bu didn't go around in circles with Zheng Song, and said bluntly: "That's right, I killed your son, if you have any tricks, just use it, and I, Lu Bu, will take it." ”
"But if you dare to do anything to the people around me......"
Without waiting for Lu Bu to finish speaking, Zheng Song laughed dryly, "How?" ”
The corners of Lu Bu's mouth were lightly raised, and a frosty smile was hung up, word by word: "I will teach you that the Zheng family is full of people, and people and animals are lost!" ”
When Zheng Song heard this, he was not only not afraid at all, but sneered: "Hey, it's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, he is not very old, and his tone is not small." In Bingzhou, even Zhang Zhong didn't dare to talk to me like this, just rely on you as a mere lieutenant? Or are you the cats and dogs behind you? ”
Song Xian and others stepped forward one after another, preparing to attack.
Lu Bu raised his hand and stopped everyone who was about to make a move.
Zheng Song glanced over one by one, sneered, 'a group of local chickens and dogs', and then walked away with a light hum.
In the future, he has the means to deal with a poor pawn like Lu Bu who has no background.
Seeing the back of Zheng Song leaving, Cao Xing's teeth itched with hatred, and he looked at Lu Bu: "Boss, why didn't you let us take off this old horseman's head just now?" ”
Lu Bu shook his head, "It's not difficult to take off his head, but have you thought about it, killing a state and county official without permission is a felony to destroy the door." ”
When Cao Xuan heard this answer, he said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of, I am full of food alone, and the whole family is not hungry......"
"Cao Xing!" Lu Bu suddenly let out a low roar.
"Huh?" Cao Xuan looked at Lu Bu a little inexplicably.
After Lu Bu took a deep breath, he said to everyone in the wolf riding camp: "Whether it's Cao Xing, or you, in this life, don't just give up your life casually, give me a good life, do you hear?"
Cao Xuan thought that Lu Bu would say something big, but it turned out to be this, he waved his palms and said with a hippie smile: "Boss, why are you suddenly so serious, I ......"
Without waiting for Cao Xing to finish speaking, Lu Bu roared again: "Answer me!" ”
Cao Xuan was stunned for a moment, it was the first time he saw Lu Bu's solemn expression, nodded solemnly, and responded: "Boss, I know." ”
After Lu Bu breathed a sigh of relief, Cao Xing instantly regained his previous temperament, put his hand on Lu Bu's shoulder, and joked with a smile: "Boss, listening to the tone you just spoke, it seems that you have experienced several lifetimes." ”
Lu Bu raised his leg and kicked on Cao Xing's buttocks, seeing that guy grinning and shouting in pain, Lu Bu laughed and scolded: "You talk too much!"
Early the next morning.
In the king's tent of the Xianbei battalion, there were more than ten senior generals who commanded the army, and they all came to ask for war.
One of the square-faced generals was the first to say: "King, in order to take the Yanmen Pass, we have killed countless children, and now the Yanmen Pass has been broken, and victory is just around the corner, but we are staring at it every day, and the last general really can't figure it out." Please give me 5,000 soldiers and horses, and the last general will definitely break through the Yanmen Pass and dedicate it to the king. ”
"Please allow me to go and break the barrier together." The generals in the tent expressed their positions one after another.
Bu Dugen lowered his chin, lowered his brows, and thought to himself: There has been no movement at Yanmen Pass for the past two days, could it be that Zhang Zhong is really using an empty city to bluff me?
It's really not a way to do this, so it's better to let people explore the truth first.
After having a plan in his heart, Budugen just wanted to speak, when he heard a loud voice from outside the tent.
"Newspaper~"
Budugen sat up straight and said, "Let him in." ”
The scouts outside the tent trotted in, bowed down and clenched their fists and reported: "King, the city of Yanmen Pass is covered with flags, and there are no less than 20,000 guards on the gate. ”
When the generals in the tent heard the news, their faces changed, and 20,000 soldiers was not a small number.
Bu Dugen put the generals' expressions in his eyes, and there was a look on his face that was not what I expected, and he stroked the beard on his chin smugly, and said to the generals: "This king knows that there are ambushes hidden in Yanmen Pass, so he has not let you send troops, for fear that you will be reckless and fall into the trap of the Han people." ”
When the generals in the tent heard this, they all bowed and said: "The king is wise, I can't wait." ”
Just as Bu Dugen was enjoying the praise of the generals, the spy leader added very inopportunely: "King, it is reported that more than 20,000 soldiers arrived at Yanmen Pass at dusk yesterday, and there were indeed only 1,000 people left in the city before. ”
The words of the spy were undoubtedly a resounding slap in the face of everyone.
The generals in the tent looked embarrassed, and the horse's fart was slapped on the horse's leg.
Budugen's face suddenly became extremely ugly, as if the weather under a clear sky suddenly became dark clouds.
That day, Budugen was less than 100 steps away from Yanmen Pass, and with just an order, Yanmen Pass was in his hands, but he actually ordered a retreat himself, and then two days later, he didn't even think about attacking again.
In the end, he was played as a monkey for a long time, and he was still complacent.
It's just disgusting!
"Someone, pass on the king's order, the three armies are assembled, and the troops are sent to Yanmen Pass!"
Annoyed and angry, Budugen got up and roared loudly, how could he be willing to give up after losing such a big face, even if he hired people, he had to take the Yanmen Pass.
The generals in the tent clasped their fists one after another, and one of them replied: "King, it's been several days, and the grain and grass in the rear haven't arrived yet, do you want to send someone to urge?" ”
Bu Dugen nodded irritably, the cooked ducks let him fly, and now the grain and grass can't be escorted, what the hell is Hulu Zhuohe in Dingxiang County doing.
"Report~" There was another announcement outside the tent.
"Come in!" Bu Dugen's face was dark, there were too many things today.
The soldier who entered the tent was dressed in tatters, obviously having just experienced a great battle, his body trembled slightly, and he opened his mouth, but he did not dare to speak.
"Say!" Budugen saw the soldier's appearance like this, and he had an extremely bad premonition in his heart.
Under the anxious gaze of everyone in the tent, the soldier's face was almost the same as that of his dead mother, and he cried loudly, "King, Dingxiang County has been attacked by the Han people, and the two thousand captives in the city, the grain, grass, cattle and sheep are all gone, gone!" ”
After saying that, the soldier collapsed directly to the ground, and the whole person seemed to have lost his soul.
"What do you say!!"
Bu Dugen rushed to the soldier in two arrows, dragged him up, and in the face of this thunderbolt on a sunny day, he still asked again in disbelief: "You said that Dingxiang County was lost!" ”
Under Budugen's almost cannibalistic gaze, the soldier swallowed his saliva and nodded with difficulty.
How he wished the soldier would shake his head, or if he had misheard, but the reality was always so cruel.
Originally, Budugen occupied the four counties in the north of Bingzhou, and in order to capture Yanmen Pass, he mobilized almost all his troops. As a result, Yanmen Pass was not taken, but it also lost Dingxiang and Yunzhong counties, and cut off the back road.
The grain, cattle and sheep of Dingxiang County were all transferred by the Han people, and Yanmen Pass would definitely not be able to be captured in two days. Now there are only two counties left, Xihe and Wuyuan, and it seems that they can only go to Xihe and go back to Wuyuan County to make plans.
The disillusioned Budugen's body almost fell, and a cadre of generals wanted to support Budugen, but Budugen stretched out his hand to stop him, indicating that he was fine, he looked at the soldier, tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and asked in the calmest tone: "When I left, didn't I tell Hulu Zhuohe thousands of times to ask him to stick to it!" Where is he! ”
Hulu Zhuohe, as the head of the six wolf generals, is naturally not low, how can he not even be able to defend a Dingxiang County.
The soldier cried with a sad face, and told Budugen everything he had seen, "General Hulu fell for the tricks of the Han people and was lured out of the city, but he was trapped in a quagmire, and was ambushed by the archers around the Han people, and ten thousand arrows pierced his heart and died!" ”
"The Han people also asked me to hand this into your own hands with the king." The soldier who reported the news took out a white silk cloth from his bosom and handed it over.
Bu Dugen took the white cloth, on which were written two lines of thick and conspicuous wild grass Chinese characters: King Shao's clever plan is really unique, and he gave the city and sent food.
Bu Dugen only felt that in his body, there was a surge of qi and blood, rushing straight to his throat.
There is also a line of small words below this: Drama and the people of Bingzhou worship the great grace of King Shao.
Every word is like a sarcastic smile.
Murder and heartbreaking!
Once evacuated, if you want to go south and knock on the pass, I am afraid that it will be hopeless in this life.
In a hurry, Budugen leaned back, staggered back a few steps, and barely stood firm, pointing to the sky, and shouted sadly: "It can't go south, it's not my fault, it's ~ destiny!"
Heavens, how thin are you to me!
Burst!!!
Budugen spat out a mouthful of blood mist, and the red blood droplets were sprinkled on the white roll cloth in his hand, which was extremely dazzling, like a snowy snow, falling plum blossoms.
A cadre of generals in the tent hurriedly stepped forward to support Budugen's falling body with seven hands and feet, and hurriedly rescued.
After noon, in the general's mansion, Zhang Zhong and Zhang Yi had their own opinions, and when they were arguing about whether to attack or defend, the scouts who went out in the morning sent back the news that the Xianbei people had evacuated outside Yanmen Pass in the morning, and according to the hoof prints and axle traces, it could be judged that the Xianbei people were going in the direction of Xihe County.
Faced with this heavy news that was no less than a twelve-magnitude earthquake, the people in the General's Mansion were a little confused for a while, and they couldn't understand why the Xianbei people would make the most unwise choice to evacuate when the situation was very good.
Anyway, fortunately, with God's blessing, although it was a little inexplicable, it was always won.
Some people say that Xianbei is afraid of Budugen and has different intentions, and some people say that Xianbei has different intentions and orders his class to return to the court, and some people say that there is a civil strife in Xianbei and wants to be suppressed by Budugen's army, and some people even say that it is the white horse righteous servant of Youzhou Gongsun Zhan, who cut off the back road of Xianbei people, so that they ignore it......
And at this moment, the real initiator of this incident is cocking Erlang's legs, lying on the slope covered with grass and taking a nap.
