Chapter 159: The Gongsun of Liaodong
When Liu Bei and others swore an oath in the sour date, Yuan Shu also ordered Sun Jian to start marching. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info For the "old friend" Sun Jian, Dong Zhuo attaches great importance to it, and the general Hu Zhen led tens of thousands of horses, and the soldiers went out of Liang County to attack Luyang.
When its vanguard arrived in Luyang City, Sun Jian was holding a banquet and serving grain and grass outside the city. Seeing the soldiers from afar, Sun Jian's heart was cold, it was over, they were all outside the city, and they were about to be served in a pot. Seeing that the faces of the generals under his command were as white as earth, he thought, at this time, he can't panic, otherwise he will immediately bomb the camp.
In the era of cold weapons, there was no strict military discipline order in later generations, and a large part of the army's combat effectiveness was maintained on the generals. As the saying goes, soldiers are brave generals, and generals are the soul of the army. The army is pressing, the commander is not chaotic, and the army's heart is at peace. If the commander fights bloodily, the whole army can die. So Sun Quan suppressed his mind, pretended to be calm, held the wine, and persuaded the generals at the table.
When the generals saw that the commander was in danger, their hearts calmed down, and they thought, the general is here, and I am afraid of a ball. When Sun Jian's corporal saw the smoke and dust, he was scared to death, but when he saw that the handsome flag was still there, and the commander and the generals were talking and laughing, their hearts were inexplicably relieved. The military is a group, and the atmosphere is the most important thing. The boss is not afraid of death, and his subordinates are naturally bold. So Sun Jian's subordinates raised their chests one by one. The appearance of the male and energetic is as if Sun Jian can rush straight to the enemy formation with an order.
Not long after, Hu Zhen arrived in Luyang, and when he saw it, his nose was crooked, and he called the vanguard general is a horsewhip and scolded: "Why don't you attack the city immediately?" ”
The pioneer was very aggrieved and said: "General, Sun Jian is outside the city, he is at ease, drinking and having fun, and the young general is afraid of fraud, so he will strike the army and wait for the general to come to decide." ”
Hu Zhen has been in the army for a long time, and has dealt with Sun Jian many times in Liangzhou, and at a glance he knows what kind of trick Sun Jian is playing, obviously he was caught off guard by his own surprise attack, and he was afraid that the three armies would collapse before he forced his composure, but the rammer under his command missed the opportunity. Hu Zhen was about to scold, his eyes flashed, but he saw that there was already movement on Sun Jian's side, so he hurriedly glared at the vanguard general angrily and ordered: "Attack!" ”
When Sun Jian was under the city of Hu Zhen's soldiers, he had secretly led his troops into the city with his henchmen, and when Hu Zhen gave the order, the gate of Luyang City had been slammed shut. Sun Jian climbed to the top of the city, looked at Hu Zhen under the city, and laughed: "General Hu, it's been a long time!" ”
Hu Zhen knew Sun Jian's methods, and since he entered the city, this bone would be difficult to gnaw. So what, though. Luyang City is small, Sun Jian is outnumbered, he doesn't believe it, and he can't take a Luyang City with his life.
Hu Zhen was about to order the three armies to prepare equipment and attack Luyang, but the left and right deputy generals persuaded: "General, we are waiting to travel here from Luoyang, and the soldiers are tired, so it is better to rest first." ”
Hu Zhen frowned, the army attacked the city, and then fell into decline and exhaustion. When he and his lord led the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry to run thousands of miles, he had never called it tired, how far it was from Luoyang to Luyang, and it was not without rest along the way. When he was about to scold, he saw an indifferent look on the adjutant general's face, and he saw the three armies faintly cursing.
Hu Zhen began to hesitate. He knew that since the Liangzhou soldiers entered Luoyang, they had become different. At that time, the invincible Liangzhou Iron Cavalry began to fall since entering the flower world of Luoyang. This time, he led the crowd to go on the expedition, and there were countless generals and soldiers who complained about the sky and were unwilling to send troops to Luoyang. And along the way, he was constantly screaming and tired, and there were many small situations, if it weren't for his prestige for many years, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to suppress it.
Hu Zhen saw that the army had no fighting spirit, and knew that a forced attack would be in vain. It's just that when the army has rested enough, it will be even more difficult to attack Luyang again. gave Sun Jian time to breathe, let him strengthen the city defense, apply for reinforcements, how can he do anything in Luyang. It's better to say that the lord is going to retreat to Liang County and wait for him to attack. When the offensive and defensive momentum is reversed. Waiting for work with ease and waiting for attack with defense, I don't believe that Sun Jian can please him in his own hands.
Hu Zhen's resolute man, his intention has been decided, so he no longer said more, and only ordered the three armies to camp and prepare to bury the pot to make rice.
Sun Jian saw a burst of cheers in Hu Zhen's camp at the head of the city, thought about it, and said with a smile: "Luyang is worry-free, I expect Hu Zhen to retreat." ”
At that time, Sun Jian's four generals, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Zu Mao, and Huang Gai, the first three had followed Sun Jian for many years. Only the yellow cover is newly attached. It was a look of hesitation.
The yellow cover word is public, Lingling people, at the beginning of the county officials, and then filial piety, Sun Jian is Changsha Taishou, raising troops to fight for Zhuo, which is used to dispel the yellow cover. Huang Gai is strict and resolute, good at raising people, and quite strategic. Therefore, Sun Jian attached great importance to it, and when he saw Huang Gai's face showing disbelief, he smiled and said: "Hu Zhen and I were in Liangzhou together, and his army was very strict. Now Hu Zhen has suspended his troops and the three armies are cheering, proving that his army has no heart to fight. Hu Zhen is familiar with military affairs, and the army has no fighting spirit, and it is useless to stay outside the city, and the military rations are wasted in vain. And in a few days, his army will be withdrawn. ”
A few days later, his army retreated. Huang Gai was convinced. Since then, he has followed Sun Jian left and right, dedicating his life to Sun's light and heat.
At the same time as Dong Zhuo's army came out, the DPRK and China also began to prepare to move the capital. Taiwei Huang Wan and Situ Yang Biao were exempted, and Dong Zhuo took Guangluxun Zhao Qian as Taiwei and Wang Yun as Situ. Then the public discussed the relocation of the capital.
I don't know when, a nursery rhyme began to circulate in Luoyang City, "A Han in the east, a Han in the west, the deer walks into Chang'an, there is no difficulty." Dong Zhuo was convinced of this. So regardless of the persuasion of the Manchu civil and military, he insisted on returning to Chang'an. Maybe in his heart, Chang'an is closer to Liangzhou and safer?
Of course, the first important thing before returning to Chang'an was to get back Huangfu Song, who was still confronting the rebels in Liangzhou. This is not the end, there is also Gai Xun, get him back too, so that you can rest assured.
When Emperor Fu Song was the general of the left, he led 30,000 troops and stationed in Fufeng. Gai Xun was Jing Zhaoyin, in order to prevent the rebels, he recruited 5,000 soldiers, and after Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, he inexplicably increased his troops to 10,000. Dong Zhuo knew that Gai Xun, the bastard, was guarding himself.
At that time, when Dong Zhuo was abolished, Gai Xun wrote a letter to scold Dong Zhuo: "...... Xi Yiyin and Huo Guangquan have made meritorious contributions, but they are still chilling, and they are clowns, why did they end up? The congratulator is at the door, and the hanger is in the house, but it's not careful! ”
When Gai Xun heard that the Kwantung princes had risen up to please Dong Zhuo, he was overjoyed, so he went to Huangfu Song and wanted to unite with Huangfu Song to raise troops together. As a result, Huangfu Song actually refused. The reason is very simple, nominally, Dong Zhuo is Xiangguo, and they have not received the will of the Son of Heaven, so it is a bad rule to break the rules. Then the Liangzhou traitors were not pacified, and when the army marched eastward, the Liangzhou traitors rebelled, and followed the Houkou to plunder the three auxiliaries, so what could they do?
Gai Xun had few soldiers, and seeing that Huangfu Song did not agree, he reluctantly gave up the idea of raising troops. Now receiving Dong Zhuo's order, Gai Xun said with a smile: "Huangfu really doesn't listen to me, and now he is in Luo, he is a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, and life and death are unknown." ”
Gai Xun was in Chang'an, and when he arrived at Huangfu Song, the two entered Luo together. This time, Dong Zhuo Zheng Huangfu Song was the captain of the city gate, and Gai Xun was the councilor. The two important ministers who held military power in their hands instantly became dispensable figures in the court.
Liu Bei, Cao Cao went all the way, and when the soldiers came to Xingyang, the sky was not beautiful, and it rained heavily. In fact, Liu Bei's army is not incapable of fighting when it rains, but the friendly Cao operation department is composed of domestic servants and village husbands and outlaws, lacking training and no military discipline. Along the way, there were people who deserted and fled, and if they forcibly marched on a rainy day, they were afraid that they would have to run away. It was impossible for Liu Bei to leave Cao Cao behind, so he had to accompany him to camp. It just happened that the grain and grass were a little short, so we waited for Bao Xin together.
The rain is endless, wait, wait, Liu Bei didn't wait for the rain to stop, but waited for a news that made him cry and laugh: Gongsun Du established himself as the Marquis of Liaodong in Liaodong.
Gongsun Du, the word Shengji, is a native of Xiangping, Liaodong. His father avoided officials and lived in seclusion in Xuansu, so Gongsun Du followed his father to take root in Xuansu County. Gongsun Du was once a small official of Xuansu County, and later was appreciated by Xuansu Taishou, and was opened as Shang Shulang by the public government, and transferred to Jizhou Assassin History. Later, he went to the official because of rumors. Gongsun Du, who lost his official position, has nothing to do at home, but fortunately he has a good fellow Xu Rong. Xu Rong was Gongsun Du's companion when he was a teenager. The two grew up together and had a very good relationship. It just so happened that Dong Zhuo entered Beijing and cleaned up hundreds of officials. So Xu Rong recommended Gongsun Du to Dong Zhuo as the Taishou of Liaodong.
Originally, the Han Dynasty had a three-mutual law, and officials had to avoid their hometowns. As a result, Dong Zhuo messed up the government and acted recklessly, and he didn't care so much. and immediately approved what the love would ask. Let Gongsun Du, a native of Liaodong, be the Taishou of Liaodong.
Gongsun Du was appointed as the Taishou of Liaodong, which immediately caused a wave in Liaodong. Liaodong County, Xuansu Small County, when will it be Xuansu's turn to let me Liaodong be too guarded? What's more, this soil bun still started as a knife and pen official. The rumors suddenly spread to Gongsun Du's ears. Gongsun Du was angry, this is fun.
A county is too guarded, and he is the military and political chief of a county, and his power is great, let alone in troubled times? As soon as Gongsun Du arrived, he arrested Xiangping and ordered Gongsun Zhao to be killed in the downtown area in a form of extreme insult. There is no other reason, that is, he feels that Gongsun Zhao looks down on him Gongsun Du, and once made Gongsun Du's son Gongsun Kang the commander of the army.
His sons of Gongsun Du, all like dragons and tigers, how can they be veterans? Or is it just a captain? Gongsun Zhao died unjustly. The emperor is far away, and because of the war, the voice is blocked, and the family members have no way to appeal if they want to enter Beijing.
Gongsun Du killed a Gongsun Zhao, but he was not satisfied, so he found an excuse and killed more than 100 families such as Tian Zhao, the big tycoon in the county. It's really sitting at home, and disaster is coming from the sky. However, who let Gongsun Du have soldiers in his hands?
After Gongsun Du killed all the "thorns" in the county who could threaten him, and there was no objection in the whole county, he was satisfied.
After Gongsun Du took power, he recruited a large army, attacked Goguryeo in the east, and Wuhuan in the west, and swept away the power of foreign races in Liaodong County. Of course, Gongsun Du still has real skills, leading the army to win many battles, and for a while, he is powerful overseas, and he dares not to obey the order.
People are very easy to swell, and Gongsun Du began to swell under successive victories.
