Chapter 117: The Battle of Liangzhou (2)
A big battle, each with its own winners and losers. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info Sun Jianran suffered a lot of losses, and the Liangzhou thieves also knew that the Han army in front of him was not easy to mess with. So he led the army to retreat.
In Zhang Wen's army, Yuan Peng, the ruling Jinwu, was the deputy appointed by the emperor, but he was not familiar with military affairs. Zhang Wen saw that Sun Jian had won for a while, and his heart was happy, so he said that Sun Jian joined the military and stayed in front of the Chinese army tent to serve and listen.
The raiding rebels were caught off guard by the Han army. It's not that Zhang Wen is better than Huangfu Song. It's this time and that time.
When Huangfu Song was a general, the rebels in Liangzhou came for the first time, and they were in full swing. That's why he can't hold on to Huangfu Song. During the period when the two armies were holding each other, the Liangzhou army plundered everywhere, and the arrogance was raised, but the money and food seized made the army not focus on fighting the war, but only on making a fortune.
And the Han army got a new force from Liu Bei, and Zhang Wen led his troops to help, and their morale was boosted. One eliminates the other, and attacks with heart and without intention. The Liangzhou rebels were naturally invincible. It can only be regarded as Huangfu Song's bad luck. Hold on for a while, the victory will be his, but it will be planted in Zhang Rang's hands.
Tao Qian, Sun Jian, Dong Zhuo, Liu Bei, the four-way army attacked separately, and the Liangzhou rebels were defeated and retreated. From the city to Huaili, there was no trace of the rebels.
Yuan Peng is a great joy, and halfway through this battle, he can't wait to play the performance. Zhang Wen also can't do anything about this deputy who is not stable at all. Yuan Peng didn't want to think about it, he would report the victory now, if he lost later, how would he explain?
The emperor received the news of great joy and was about to award a reward, but was stopped by the minister: "Your Majesty, the war is undecided, how to reward it?" And let Zhang Cheqi completely pacify Liangzhou, and then say that it is not too late to be rewarded. β
The emperor thought about it. looked at the book and saw the name Dong Zhuo, well, I remembered, it was a fierce general in Liangzhou, and he had begged for a yellow scarf before. So he suddenly became kind, and felt that he had wronged him by ousting Dong Zhuo before. After all, Lu Zhi had already been reinstated, and Dong Zhuo was not reinstated until this year. So the emperor took Dong Zhuo's previous achievements and worshiped him as a broken general. Seeing that Yuan Shuzhong said that the thieves in Liangzhou were many strong, and he was afraid that Major General Zhang Wen would be outnumbered, so he sent Zhou Shen, the general of Kou, to lead his troops westward and return to Zhang Wen's command.
Zhang Wen Bingtun Chang'an. Now the five male generals under his command Dong Zhuo, Tao Qian, Zhou Shen, Sun Jian, and Liu Bei are each in charge of an army. An army of 100,000 men is strong. There are also soldiers and horses from the counties of the land of Sanfu who are constantly gathering to their side. And the thieves in Liangzhou have been defeated and retreated, and now they have protected Huaili. Zhang Wen couldn't help but feel a little complacent. I thought that the thief could be determined.
On this day, Zhang Wen summoned his subordinates to discuss the matter. The four generals arrived, but Dong Zhuo did not come, Zhang Wenqiang suppressed the anger in his heart and urged him again and again. Dong Zhuofang came.
Zhang Wen said: "General Dong, why is it late for the discussion in the army?" β
Dong Zhuo glared at the beads of his eyes and said in a rough voice: "Don't blame Zhang Che riding, there is an urgent matter in the army, so it is too late." Liu Bei thought to himself, is this a person who will talk nonsense with his eyes open, and his mouth full of alcohol will be like a nose for everyone?
Dong Zhuo was so rude, Zhang Wen couldn't wait to push Dong Zhuo out and cut him down. However, Zhang Wen is worthy of being a third public, and he has experienced a lot of political storms and waves, so he is used to weighing the pros and cons. After thinking about it, he cut Dong Zhuo to correct the military law, and he was cool. But Dong Zhuo was born in Liangzhou and has always been vulgar and domineering. Not to mention the price of this kind of person, if Dong Zhuo's department hears that the master will be killed, he turns back in anger, how should it end?
The Son of Heaven sent himself to quell the rebellion, not to allow himself to provoke civil strife. If this is the case, his ability will inevitably be looked down upon. Forget it, I still don't care about this reckless man, the overall situation is important. Wait for the matter in Liangzhou, and it's not too late to talk to him.
Thinking about it, Zhang Wen endured it stubbornly. So he changed the topic and discussed how to attack Huaili.
Everyone discussed it earnestly, and when it came to it, there was only one thing, quickly marching into the army, surrounding Huaili, and attacking the rebels. Only Dong Zhuo stood up at this time and said, "General, the last general thinks it's inappropriate. There are tens of thousands of thieves in Liangzhou, all of whom are elite soldiers in the West. Our army should try it slowly, and not overdo it. Otherwise, the outcome is unpredictable. β
Everyone looked at Dong Zhuo in surprise, what does this guy mean? Liu Bei couldn't help but wonder, is this Dong Zhuo a broken brain or a double agent?
Liangzhou thieves are more elite and general, can they still have more enemies than Han soldiers? Can you still resist the crushing of the torrent of the Han army? The people here have all fought with the Liangzhou soldiers, and the Liangzhou soldiers are strong, but they are not strong enough to make people afraid, right?
For a while, everyone really didn't know what Dong Zhuo wanted to do, and there had to be a degree of dominance, right?
In fact, Dong Zhuo just wants to remind everyone to be cautious when entering the army, if you want to fight, you must win, and you will hit with one blow. Who ever wanted to drink some wine, slurred speech, knotted tongue, and incompreceded speech, which made everyone a little misunderstood.
Zhang Wen had a gloomy face, snorted coldly, and said: "Just act according to the plan, three days later, the army will set up camp and attack Huaili City." β
The generals received the order, and one by one they came out.
Sun Jian walked at the end, he had always looked at Dong Zhuo unpleasantly, this time Dong Zhuo was talking nonsense, shaking the morale of the army, and he couldn't take care of it much. Then he said to Zhang Wen: "Dong Zhuo is not afraid of crime and speaks loudly, it is advisable to summon him from time to time, and Chen Junfa will kill him." β
This is to start Zhang Wen, Zhang Wen thought about it, and said: "Dong Zhuosu is famous in Longshu, kill him today, and there is no way to go west." "Zhang Wen thought very thoroughly, Dong Zhuo's name shocked Xiliang, and when the army entered Liangzhou, he also wanted him, a local native, to cooperate. If you kill the west, you won't have anything to rely on.
Sun Jian persuaded again: "Duke Ming led the king's soldiers and shocked the world, why rely on Yu Zhuo? What Guan Zhuo said, not fake the public, light and rude, is also a crime. Zhang, then after many years, when the time to discuss, and Zhuo Yun was not able, frustrated the army and suspicious people, and the two crimes were also. Zhuo was appointed to no avail, and he was called to stay, and he was arrogant and arrogant, and he was guilty of three crimes. The famous generals of the ancients, who fought in the crowd, did not continue to cut off the unmighty, and they were to kill Zhuang Jia and Wei Jiang to kill Yang Gan. Today, the Ming Gong is interested in Zhuo, and if he does not punish him, he will be punished for loss, so he is in charge. β
Zhang Wen thought about it, but in the end he couldn't bear it and decided to focus on the overall situation. So he said to Sun Jian: "Jun and return, Zhuo will be suspicious." Sun Jian had no choice but to get up and go.
Liu Bei has also made a general understanding of Dong Zhuo these days. thinks that Dong Zhuo can still be qualified as a military general. As for Dong Zhuo's arrogance, which military general has not been arrogant in the past dynasties? Dong Zhuo is like this, but he is just fighting for his martial arts and military exploits, and he feels that Zhang Wen can't suppress him. If Zhang Huan, Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and others were here, would he dare to do so? Soldiers are still quite simple and pure, only recognize military merit medals, and don't recognize how big an official you have been.
In fact, no matter what era it is, the military is too arrogant to be too high-minded. Even if it is a feudal official, he will ignore you if he says that he will not pay attention to you. In this way, Dong Zhuo is still quite cute. Dong Zhuo later succeeded, but it was just that the people in Jingshi were too stupid, which made him see the corruption and incompetence of the Han court, which fueled his ambitions. Everyone has ambition, who doesn't love power? If Liu Bei is transferred to Dong Zhuo's position, Liu Bei will also do the same.
However, Liu Bei decided to find an opportunity as much as possible to prevent Dong Zhuo from entering Beijing. This guy is a rough man, he doesn't understand anything, and he has ruined too many things. As a result, after a while, he was still inevitably defeated. Because he has never grasped the key points, and without the cooperation of the scholars and doctors, how can he, a general, control the imperial court? It's just wishful thinking.
As for Tao Qian, Liu Bei also observed this benefactor in the history books for a while. But I don't have much to make friends. Tao Qian is a late bloomer, almost fifty years old, and he is still in the army. However, in the next few years, it will be the peak of his life, and he will go out of Xuzhou because of the Xuzhou Yellow Turban Disaster. In the end, he became a prince of one side.
In fact, Liu Bei was most interested in Sun Jian and Sun Wentai. Sun Jian is really capable, not to mention that he is handsome, and his kung fu is also good. Although he died a little early, he couldn't stand the fact that he had two good sons.
Xiao Sun Ce should be eleven years old this year. In fact, Liu Bei wanted to know how Sun Jian had been away for a long time and his son had been raised at home. It's a bit amazing. Sun Quan is okay, Sun Ce's force value is simply amazing.
So these days, Liu Bei has been in a relationship with Sun Jian. Thinking that if Sun Jian died, Xiao Sun Ce would be helpless, so let him vote for his uncle. Then to serve yourself and fight the world, don't go to Jiangdong and fight for yourself, it's so tiring.
Liu Bei's actions are still somewhat effective. After all, although Liu Bei is young, his fame is there. The halo on this head is much more dazzling than Sun Jian's. Moreover, Liu Bei's qualifications are also sufficient, and the positions of county commander, Taishou, and Dongzhong Lang General are all things that Sun Jian has not experienced. So it couldn't be easier for Liu Bei to get close to Sun Jian. The most important thing is that the generals under Zhang Wen's account are also Sun Jian and Liu Bei are close in age. Sun Jian is only six years older than Liu Bei, no more than others, more than one round older than Liu Bei, there is no topic and there is a generation gap......
Sun Jian went out of the tent and did not return to his camp, but went to Liu Bei's tent and came to complain to Liu Bei.
As soon as Sun Jian entered the tent and saw Liu Bei, he said: "Xuande, Dong Zhuo is too rude to Zhang Cheqi today, why doesn't Xuande stop him?" β
Liu Bei said with a smile: "Brother Wentai, when the two armies are about to fight, when employing people, how can Gong Zhang deal with Dong Zhuo?" Let's see, Zhang Gong has his own plans in his heart, and when the matter in Liangzhou is over, there will be movement. β
Sun Jian was especially upset, and said: "If you don't kill Dong Zhuo, how can you convince the public?" β
Liu Bei thought to himself, Sun Jian is thirty years old, and he is quite naΓ―ve in politics. But after thinking about it, Sun Jian had only served a few terms as a county commander before, and had never served as the chief officer of the county and county orders, and then the Yellow Turban was in turmoil, and he joined the army as a military assistant, and he has been in the army until now...... It's no wonder that he can't see through some things.
So Liu Bei said: "Brother Wentai, Zhang Gong is the commander of the First Army, and his vision is naturally more long-term than ours, and he will worry more." For example, beheading Dong Zhuo, the reaction of his subordinates. beheaded Dong Zhuo, and the heroes in Liangzhou who were good friends with him reacted...... All of this is due to Zhang Gong's temporary ignorance at present, and everything is focused on the overall situation. It is only possible to have a seizure when it comes to Liangzhou. β
Speaking of this, Sun Jian realized. The two gossiped for a while, and Sun Jian said goodbye to Liu Bei and returned to the army.
