Chapter 95: Chen Liu, Going South (Preview of Receiving the Fierce General)
Luoyang shook, and the worst thing was Dong Zhuo.
Fortunately, Dong Zhuo bribed Zhang Rang and others in advance, and was not arrested and brought back for trial, but only dismissed him from his position as commander and demoted.
And Zhang Yu was also rewarded by the imperial court, but because he had just been crowned a general, he was not promoted this time, and he did not make a fortune.
"This Liu Hong is really stingy, he just issued a certificate of honor, and he didn't even have a bonus."
Zhang Yu was rewarded and was very dissatisfied, because there was no practical benefit at all.
Zhang Yu suffered heavy losses in this battle, and more than half of the soldiers and horses were killed and wounded, so he was unhappy.
Soon, in August, Huangfu Song was ordered to replace Dong Zhuo and became the new coach.
And Zhang Yu still did not receive any actual tasks, as if the court had forgotten him again.
But this is exactly what Zhang Yu wants, because you don't have to be restrained by anyone, you can do whatever you want.
As soon as Huangfu Song arrived, he brought more than 30,000 soldiers and horses over, immediately calmed the hearts of the people, and strengthened the camp, ready to defend to the death.
Huangfu Song summoned the generals and asked the officers and soldiers from all walks of life to train the soldiers and horses and restore morale.
After Huangfu Song arrived, he vigorously reorganized the soldiers and horses, and then he found Zhang Yu.
"Meet General Huangfu." Zhang Yu took Ling Cao to Huangfu Song's military camp.
Huangfu Song nodded and asked Zhang Yu to sit down.
The two chatted for a while, mainly because Huangfu Song asked some opinions on the current situation.
Zhang Yu answered a few questions in a decent manner, and Huangfu Song did not continue to ask.
Huangfu Song said: "Now our army is unable to attack, and there is no way to trap Guangzong City to death, so we can only keep an eye on them here, and we can't attack other places, but the Yellow Turbans still come from all over the place. ”
Zhang Yu was puzzled, this Huangfu Song was going to send him a task.
"General Huangfu, what's the use of getting somewhere." Zhang Yu said solemnly.
Zhang Yu has already made up his mind, if the task is too difficult, he will use insufficient troops or lack of effort to deal with the past, if he does, Zhang Yu does not mind brushing up more points and credit.
"Now we can't completely besiege Guangzong City, and the Yellow Turbans can continue to support from other places, so I want to ask General Zhang to take people to cut off the supply of the Yellow Turbans, so that it makes sense for us to besiege Guangzong City."
As soon as Huangfu Song came to Guangzong City, he began to study the battle situation and made a good plan, but he understood that if the Yellow Turban was allowed to send support to Guangzong City continuously, then it was very likely that the official army would be dragged down in the end.
But Huangfu Song didn't have many troops in his hands, and he was powerless to stop all this.
Although Zhang Yu does not have many troops, it can also play a great role in penetrating the enemy's rear.
"This is a good mission, go to the enemy's rear to fight guerrillas." Zhang Yu was happy in his heart, and he could just take the opportunity to avoid the big battlefield of Guangzong City.
At this time, Zhang Yu really had no role outside Guangzong City, and an army of more than 3,000 people could play a role.
Zhang Yu happily accepted the task.
This task is also difficult, or it can be no difficulty, anyway, drive the army out, and do as much as you can.
There are scattered yellow scarves outside, and the strength of the yellow scarves is not strong, Zhang Yu likes it the most.
Bidding farewell to Huangfu Song, Zhang Yu went back.
Zhang Yu's heart was hot for a while, if he left before, Huangfu Song couldn't do anything about him, because Zhang Yu was not under anyone's control at present.
But if you leave by yourself, there will always be some suspicion of evasion, and you will be blamed.
Now Zhang Yu can leave justifiably.
After Zhang Yu left, Huangfu Song's lieutenant general came in.
"General, why don't you let Zhang Yu hand over the formation to restrain the Yellow Turban, he fought with the Yellow Turban that day, and the formation played a great role?" The adjutant asked.
Huangfu Song shook his head and said: "This Zhang Yu is not the master of losses, I can't afford to let him take out the things at the bottom of the box for nothing, besides, this complex formation can't be practiced in a day or two, we don't have that much time." ”
Although Huangfu Song said so in his mouth, he didn't think so in his heart.
He was afraid that Zhang Yu would have too much military power.
If Zhang Yu asks him to train the soldiers and horses, or even let him lead these soldiers and horses, will Huangfu Song give it or not?
gave Huangfu Song fear, afraid that Zhang Yu would have too much military power, and if he didn't give it to Zhang Yu, he could completely refuse, and when the time came, he would not be able to get off the stage.
So Huangfu Song simply didn't even mention it.
After Zhang Yu left, he returned to the barracks and told him about the task given to him by Huangfu Song.
"My lord, we don't have enough troops, so it's best to go to the rear of the Yellow Turbans to make trouble and cut off their food routes and replenish their troops." Ling Cao was the first to come out and say.
Ling Cao was in a hurry, he knew that there was nothing to do with them in this Guangzong City for the time being, Zhang Yu would not let them attack the city, and Zhang Yu would not make an easy move when the large army was fighting.
So Ling Cao was in a hurry, afraid that he would have no battle to fight.
After discussing it, several people decided that going out to fight guerrillas was the best choice.
After unifying the understanding, Zhang Yu asked the army to start preparations, and then ordered to set off in three days.
Preparation, the soldiers mainly prepare dry food and other materials, while Zhang Yu and the three generals mainly prepare the route.
"No, we won't go to Jizhou for the first stop, let's go back and fight Chen Liu." Zhang Yu discussed with several subordinates for a long time, and finally decided to speak.
Jizhou is undoubtedly the stronghold of the Yellow Turbans, and many places are occupied by the Yellow Turbans except for the besieged Guangzong.
But Zhang Yu doesn't plan to go to Zhang Jiao's nest now, but plans to return.
Zhang Yu said: "This is our big rear, once there is a problem, we have to retreat from Chenliu and Yingchuan, so we must sweep away the yellow scarves in our rear, and where can we help Zhicai, so that he can concentrate on training more soldiers and horses." ”
What Zhang Yu said was very reasonable, so he decided on it.
In fact, Chen Liu's yellow scarves have been dispersed, and Huangfu Song was a main force that hit the yellow scarves in Chen Liu and other places before.
After formulating the route, Zhang Yu sent troops according to the plan.
Sweeping along the road, Zhang Yu annihilated a lot of scattered yellow scarves.
All the way south, Zhang Yu swept several counties in a row, and there are not many yellow turbans here, which are easy to attack.
After attacking several counties in a row, Zhang Yu found that there were points to be gained.
Since there are not many yellow scarves, a county town gives five hundred points.
Mosquito legs are also meat, and Zhang Yu does not refuse to come.
In fact, Zhang Yu has other thoughts.
He attacked so many Yellow Turban counties, and after entering the county seat, he let the soldiers spread the propaganda everywhere, and Zhang Yu's reputation was rising.
In addition, Zhang Yu intentionally or unintentionally helped Xi Zhicai to publicize and guide the people there.
Xi Zhicai was also in Chenliu's territory, recruiting soldiers and horses there.
"Report to the lord, a yellow turban was found at the bottom of the mountain ahead."
Zhang Yu often received reports like this, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
At this time, at the foot of this nameless mountain, a person was fighting with the yellow turban with a double halberd.
(The front is high-energy, and the announcement is that the fierce will be born, everyone can guess.) Chen Liuren, the weapon is a double halberd. Definitely a fierce general. )
