Volume 2 Heroes in Troubled Times Chapter 3 Storm Verse 18
Chapter 3 The Storm and the Storm The eighteenth section of the warship was densely packed with nervous and frightened people.
Da Hei looked back at the night sky that was red by the blazing firelight, looked at the tall city that seemed to be burning in the fire, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly,
"What do you mean? These people can also fight? "The dumb man smiled,
"The city was not taken, but the loot was moved." Yang Hua, a member of the military staff of the Hussar General's Mansion, strode onto the embankment under the protection of more than a dozen personal guards.
After Yang Hua was ordered to Hedong at the end of last year, he built the bridge as quickly as possible, but Li Hong was worried that there would be problems with the bridge and ordered him to stay in Luoyang, where he was responsible for commanding the few naval forces in northern Xinjiang and the Yellow River transport.
Zhang Yu, the military candidate, hurried to meet him. Yang Hua looked at him with a puzzled look on his face, and explained with a smile.
The reason why Lord Xu chose to attack Shaancheng at night was mainly due to the lack of strength of the Northern Xinjiang Army, and it was necessary to arrange a large number of suspicious soldiers to bluff in order to intimidate the enemy, disperse the enemy's forces, and find a breakthrough for the army to attack Shaancheng.
Lord Yan Liang and his own naval army are all suspicious soldiers, and the purpose is to feint to attack Shaanxi City in the south and north directions to contain the enemy's defending forces, and help Lord Gao Shun to start a battle to capture the city in the direction of the West City Gate.
Zhang Yu suddenly realized that Lord Gao Shun's army was the main force in the siege. He pointed to the people who were getting off the boat, and smiled lightly: "So, the lord brought them here to carry the spoils of war?" Yang Hua nodded,
"I brought with me 30,000 men, each with a torch in his hand. Wait for us to get to the city, with a little torch and a beat of war drums, the defenders stationed in Shaanxi will be frightened. Then he pointed in the direction of the West City Gate and said with a pleasant face
"Your Excellency can now take your army to the West City Gate to support Lord Gao Shun, and leave the matter here to me." Zhang Yu was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed and retreated.
West City Gate. More soldiers of the Northern Xinjiang Army climbed the city wall, and the two sides fought to the death. The Northern Army's troops stationed at the West City Gate were obviously insufficient, and they gradually retreated under the astonishingly powerful offensive of the Northern Frontier Army.
At this time, the whole city was surrounded by torches all over the mountains, and the smell of burnt paste was choking in the air of the year. The thunderous sounds of slaughter and the deafening sound of war drums shook the earth, and the defenders of the city fell into extreme fear and panic, and their morale fell to the extreme.
Sima of the Northern Army, who was stationed at the West City Gate, commanded the soldiers of the Northern Army to fight bravely. He screamed hoarsely, sounding particularly poignant and desperate in the night.
Several soldiers who fled in panic were shot dead by him on the spot. In order to quickly take Shaancheng, Gao Shun did not hesitate to make a desperate bet and put all 2,000 troops into the battlefield.
He Kai and Li Zhe followed Gao Shun and also led their troops to attack the city tower in person. A battalion of men and horses, three commanders, the momentum is like a rainbow, overwhelming, like a raging storm, frantically killing the city.
This powerful attack of the Northern Xinjiang Army dealt a heavy blow to the defenders of the Northern Army. Gao Shun's shield had been shattered, and the war knife in his hand had been curled.
He roared at the rushing enemy, smashed the enemy's head with the back of his thick knife, and then grabbed the enemy's halberd with his hand.
"Up, up, kill the past......" The guards guarded Gao Shun left and right, slashing with knives and axes, advancing step by step, and it was overwhelming.
Gao Shun's halberd danced and killed three people in a row. The ferocious enemy slashed through the air and severed the hilt of the halberd. Gao Shun's eyes were fast, holding the halberd head in one hand and the half-cut halberd handle in the other, and he hit it headlong at an unbelievable speed.
The enemy was caught off guard and was knocked upside down by him. The halberd in Gao Shun's hand was thrust into the enemy's lower abdomen.
Blood spurted, and Gao Shun's face was splashed suddenly. Before Gao Shun could reach out to wipe it, a whistling spear had already burst into the air.
"Kill ......" Gao Shun couldn't hide, opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood foam, and smashed the head of the gun with a punch. The spear burst open, and the momentum of the spear continued unabated, piercing straight through the guards on Gao Shun's side.
Before he died, the guard grabbed the spear and let out a long howl. Gao Shun's heartstrings trembled, the tiger roared, his body flew into the air, and kicked the big man with the gun.
The big man screamed, retreated again and again, and fell at the feet of his military horse. The soldiers of the northern army were furious,
"Kill, kill him, that's the captain of the Northern Xinjiang Army, kill him for me......" The crossbow arrows roared, the figure flew, and the sergeants of the Northern Army roared loudly and rushed up.
Gao Shun was not afraid, and in the exclamation of the guards, he grabbed a northern soldier and held him tightly in front of him, blocking several sharp arrows.
When the arrow stopped, Gao Shun roared and smashed the desperate Northern soldier into the enemy who rushed up.
The long knife roared, and Gao Shun roared forward like a bloodthirsty beast. In the midst of the shouting, human heads flew and blood flowed, severed limbs and stumps flew in the air, and the tragic shouts tore through the dead silence of the night in an instant.
The knife was broken, the fist hit, and an angry face was suddenly smashed, the round eyes burst out, and the huge body flew into the air.
Gao Shun kicked up again and kicked the fierce enemy out of the city. The military Sima of the Northern Army shouted and scolded angrily, facing Gao Shun is thunderous sword,
"Lao Tzu split your ......" Gao Shun retreated sharply, and instantly collided with the two of them. A Northern sergeant screamed angrily at the side.
Gao Shun flew over, grabbed the enemy's sword with his right hand, grabbed the enemy's leather armor with his left hand, and roared and raised the enemy in the air.
The sword of the army Sima carried the sound of wind and thunder, and slashed again. Under the knife, blood splattered, and the screams were heartbreaking.
Gao Shun roared again, leaving the dead body, and the war knife in his right hand slashed through the air like lightning.
"Take the head...... The military Sima of the Northern Army was shocked, and broke out with an earth-shattering roar. As soon as the roar began, the skull rose into the air, shooting out into the darkness with a puff of blood.
"Kill the tower, kill the tower......" Gao Shun kicked the headless corpse and shouted,
"Kill it......" Zhang Yu led a song of soldiers to run at high speed in the dark night. Yan Jie led a group of soldiers and horses to the West City Gate quickly.
The suspension bridge on the west city gate fell with a bang, and the city gate slowly opened in the cheers of the soldiers of the Northern Xinjiang Army.
Gao Shun was covered in blood, stood on the edge of the city gate with a sword, and stood majestically. After the fierce battle, the soldiers of Northern Xinjiang sat in a pool of blood in twos and threes, wheezing violently, exhausted one by one.
Yan Jie rushed into the city gate with a horse, and shouted at Gao Shun: "My lord, where is the headquarters killed?" β
"Kill the barracks and protect the grain and grass." Gao Shun waved his hand and shouted,
"Hurry, be quick, prevent the Northern Army from igniting and burning grain."
"Go, go, brothers, follow me to the enemy camp......" Yan Jie shouted wildly, and roared towards the city with his soldiers.
Zhang Yu appeared in front of Gao Shun, out of breath, and couldn't stand steadily.
"Adult ......"
"Quick, take someone to kill the government directly, kill whatever you see, and leave no one behind." Gao Shun gritted his teeth and said,
"Kill me." Zhang Yu stopped talking, waved his hand behind him, and continued to run away. Gao Shun immediately ordered He Kai to lead people to guard the door.
He and Li Zhe followed Zhang Yu with hundreds of soldiers and killed all the way to the city. Zhao Xuan, the defender of the Northern Army, never expected that the Northern Xinjiang Army would defeat Shaanxi City in a few hours.
He thought he would have no problem keeping it for two days. Two days later, Niu Fu got the news and led the army back to help, and the Northern Xinjiang Army was about to retreat without a fight, so he was very relieved, and he didn't even make preparations for burning grain and grass after the city was broken.
When Yan Jie captured the barracks, Zhao Xuan was on the north city gate. When he heard that the city had been breached, and the grain and grass had been robbed by the Northern Frontier Army, he was dumbfounded.
Now even if he kills out, it is a capital crime to see Niu Fu. Zhao Xuan used to be the Sima of the Northern Army, and after He Jin's death, he was promoted by Dong Zhuo and became a Sima of other departments, and then he was never promoted.
It doesn't matter if he doesn't get promoted, Dong Zhuo is very mean to the officers of the Northern Army, he has never been promoted, and he is not the only one who complains.
But what he couldn't bear was that he was repeatedly ostracized by Xiliang officers in the army. If he hadn't given Niu Fu a few heavy gifts, he wouldn't even be able to keep this other Sima.
There is no master here, there is a place to stay here, and Lao Tzu is gone. Zhao Xuan did not hesitate, immediately ordered the opening of the north city gate, and surrendered.
It was not Zhao Xuan who was responsible for the army's grain and grass, but Niu Fu's long history. When this Changshi was anxious and frightened in the palace, Zhang Yu brought people in.
The Northern Xinjiang army killed people when they saw them. Surrender? Surrender also kills. So the elder lost his head very reluctantly.
Yan Liang, Gao Shun, Yang Hua, Sun Luan and others gathered in the city. The corpses in the palace had been cleaned, and the night sky was filled with the smell of blood and the scorched wood of pine oil torches.
Yan Liang and the generals talked and laughed. Zhou Shan was caught in the crowd, his face pale, although the army had successfully captured the city, the blood and death on the battlefield still shocked and frightened him.
It's one thing to talk about war on paper, but it's quite another thing to actually start a war. Zhou Shan had palpitations, he wanted to escape from here, he wanted to escape from the killing and blood, he wanted to find a beautiful mountain wilderness to escape the cruelty and pain of the world.
Yang Hua took Zhao Xuan to meet Yan Liang. Yan Liang didn't embarrass him, comforted him a few words, and asked him to temporarily take the men and horses to Dayang City on the other side of the river.
The Northern Frontier Army was very lucky this time. The army left behind in Shaanxi originally had 5,000 people, but 1,000 men and horses sent grain and grass to Mianchi, and 1,000 men and horses went to Tong to guard and transport grain and grass, so there were only 3,000 people left in the city.
It stands to reason that the Northern Army had more than enough to leave 3,000 men to defend the city. However, the Northern Frontier Army made full use of the advantage of attacking the city at night and induced the Northern Army defending the city to divide its troops to garrison the city gate.
Yan Liang and Yang Hua discussed, and then organized the people to go into the city and transport the captured grain and grass to Hedong.
Shaancheng was the only way for the Northern Army to withdraw to the western part of Guanxi, and after the Northern Xinjiang Army captured Shaancheng, Niu Fu's army was immediately surrounded by the Northern Xinjiang Army in the area of Mianchi.
At this time, the Northern Army had no food and grass, and was surrounded by the Northern Xinjiang Army, which was a dead end. Gao Shun, Sun Luan, Yan Jie and others were very excited, and gathered around the map to discuss the encirclement and annihilation of the Northern Army.
"My lord, the news of our capture of Shaanxi City will reach the Niu Auxiliary Army tonight at the latest." Sun Luan saw Yan Liang walking to the side of the case, and said with a smile,
"After Niu Fu gets the news, he will retreat quickly tomorrow, and he will be able to attack Shaancheng with all his strength the day after tomorrow. As long as we hold on to Shaancheng and block the northern army under the city, Niu Fu and the northern army will be finished. β
"Really?" Yan Liang looked down at the map, and then looked at Gao Shun,
"Ziping, what do you think?"
"If we want to wait until Lord Xu and Lord Yu's army arrives in Shaancheng, we will have to hold on for at least three to five days." Gao Shun said with a stern expression,
"In order to make every effort to open the way to retreat, Niu Fu will definitely send heavy troops to defend Michi to block the armies of Lord Xu and Lord Yu. In this way, our 5,000 men and horses will have to face the frantic attack of at least 30,000 northern troops alone. We have sufficient grain and grass, and Hedong can still support us in time, so it is definitely not a problem to hold on to Shaancheng for more than five days. β
"The Northern Army has nearly 40,000 troops. The grain and grass brought by the army could only last for three or four days at most. Three or four days later, the northern army ran out of food and grass, the morale of the army was weakened, and the morale was low, and it was bound to be defeated. It's just ......" Gao Shun pointed to the pond on the map and said worriedly,
"Lord Xu and Lord Yu only have more than 20,000 people, if Niu Fu is supplemented by 10,000 people to defend the pond, the loss of the two adults to break through the city will be very amazing. If the losses of the Northern Xinjiang Army are too great, even if they can rush to Shaancheng to encircle and annihilate the Northern Army, they will not be able to completely annihilate it, and at most they will only inflict heavy losses on the Northern Army. β
"Three to five days?" Sun Luan frowned and said,
"If Niu Fu attacked Shaanxi City with 30,000 men, the loss of our 5,000 men would be very staggering."
"Even if the Northern Army is completely annihilated in this battle, we will lose more than half, and the army will not be able to fight again." Gao Shun said,
"Dong Zhuo is angry, if we don't send troops to Kansai again at all costs, we can only retreat to Hangu Pass, and the situation in Kansai and Kanto will become very tense." Yan Liang nodded appreciatively,
Ziping has a point. Lord Xu took into account the lack of our troops, so he had no intention of fighting a decisive battle with the Northern Army under the city of Shaancheng. He looked up at the crowd and suddenly smiled,
"Lord Xu means that the army will immediately withdraw from Shaancheng and then go up to Kunshan." Kansai, Sin'an Fortress. Niu Fu led the army to Xin'an City, ready to launch a battle to seize the city, at this time the scouts urgently reported Niu Fu, Shaanxi City was lost.
Niu Fu was shocked and urgently summoned the generals to discuss the matter. At this time, the situation was very clear, and the main force of the Northern Xinjiang Army captured Shaanxi City and surrounded the Northern Army.
In the case of the loss of grain and grass, the superiority of the Northern Army in terms of strength has disappeared, and the only way to retreat is to retreat and retreat quickly, otherwise the whole army will be wiped out.
Li Dao, Guo Yan and others were very angry, accusing Niu Fu of not listening to Jia Xu's advice and insisting on advancing eastward quickly and attacking Kwantung, resulting in today's predicament.
Niu Fu sneered and was silent. With the current strength of the army in the north, there is no problem at all in withdrawing to Tongguan. It's just that after withdrawing to Tongguan, everyone not only returned in vain, but also delayed Dong Zhuo's plan to occupy Luoyang and stabilize Sheji, and all the generals will be punished more or less.
He is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, and at most he is only scolded by Dong Zhuo, but Li Dao, Guo Yan and others have no good life.
After withdrawing to Tongguan, he immediately wrote to Dong Zhuo, putting the responsibility for the defeat of Guanxi on Li Dao, Guo Yan and others, and then instigated Dong Zhuo to transfer these veteran Xiliang generals back to Chang'an.
Without these people to oppose themselves, the army has the final say on its own, and attacking Luoyang is just a gesture.
The withdrawal of troops is a sure thing, but how? How to retreat to ensure the safety of the army to the greatest extent and avoid suffering greater losses?
Niu Fu and Li Dao and others argued endlessly, and no one was willing to stay and defend the pond. Hold Mianchi and prevent the two northern armies from meeting, so that the northern army will have enough time to attack Shaancheng and ensure that the army can break through and leave.
But it is obvious that whoever stays behind to defend the pond will have to fight to the death with the Northern Xinjiang Army, and the loss of its strength is not very important, the important thing is that his life is in danger and in danger.
Niu Fu was helpless, and finally had to set his eyes on Jia Xu, who was sitting silently on the side, and looked at him for help.
Jia Xu did not hesitate, and said, "I will stay in the pond." β
"Wenhe ......" Li Dao shouted angrily,
"Do you think you're old and don't want to live? On the opposite side is Zhu Jun, Xu Rong, and most likely reinforcements from Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. Zhu Jun and Xu Rong deliberately set such a trap, not just to rob us of a little food and grass to force us back to Guanzhong. Their purpose is to kill us, to attack Guanzhong. Jia Xu sighed,
"Don't worry, I'll go back alive." Niu Fu was very apologetic and patted Jia Xu hard,
"Wenhe, I'll leave 10,000 people for you. You must fight back to Tongguan and join us. Jia Xu shook his hand,
"The general will give me 3,000 men. The more people remain, the greater our losses, three thousand are enough. Niu Fu smiled bitterly: "Brother Wenhe, I know that you have the confidence to hold Michi, but what I need is not your confidence. I need enough time to attack Shaanxi, and I need to make the pond unbreakable. There are too few people, how can the pond be unbroken? Jia Xu smiled slightly: "Shaanxi City is down, and adults can return to Tongguan within three days." Niu Fu and the others looked at Jia Xu in surprise, and they were skeptical.
"Brother Wen He, can you explain?" Niu Fu touched his short beard and asked very suspiciously. Jia Xu pointed to Pubanjin in Hedong on the map and said: "Lord Duan Xuan is attacking Hedong, according to Lord Duan Xuan's battle report, it is not the Northern Xinjiang Army that is blocking Lord Duan Xuan, but the Tuntian soldiers in Northern Xinjiang, which shows that the hussar general has led the army to fight Jizhou." "If the general wants to fight Jizhou, the Northern Xinjiang Army will have to fight in two battlefields at the same time, and the strength of Northern Xinjiang will obviously not be able to do it.
Then the general must give up Luoyang painfully, but give up Luoyang and give Luoyang to us, and at the same time he sent troops to occupy Jizhou, then the general's rebellious charge is confirmed, and he will be scolded and attacked by the people of the world.
Therefore, for the sake of his own face and the safety of northern Xinjiang, the general must insist on holding Luoyang no matter what.
In this dilemma, the general first had to ensure that the troops in Guanxi were not lost, so as to garrison Luoyang and protect Hedong.
Secondly, he wanted us to maintain our attack on the Kwantung region in order to maintain our threat to the prefectures and counties, and to force the prefectures and counties to provide food and grass for the Northern Frontier Army stationed in Luoyang for their own safety.
The general was unwilling to suffer damage to himself or defeat us, so in the end he had to think of such a way to rob us of grain and grass.
The strength of Guanzhong is limited, and it will take time to raise another 40,000 troops for a few months of grain and grass, and it will not be until after the winter wheat harvest in May at the earliest.
In other words, our next attack will not start until mid-June at the earliest, and with the buffer of this time, the general can attack Jizhou with all his strength and occupy Jizhou.
With Jizhou in hand, the general has a solid backing, and he can use Jizhou's money and grain to support the Northern Frontier Army in Guanxi to start a decisive battle with us.
Jia Xu shook his head and said with a sad brow: "July, it should be the time for the decisive battle, please make this clear in the letter to the Grand Master." Then Jia Xu patted the case table and said with a relaxed expression,
"It can be seen from the current Kansai strategy in northern Xinjiang that Xu Rong's plan is aimed at forcing us to retreat, and has no intention of fighting a decisive battle with us, so the army can be unimpeded and return to Tongguan smoothly all the way." Although Jia Xu's analysis is the Tao, fighting a war is a war, and it is not a blind guess that can decide the battle situation.
Niu Fu and the generals were panicked, what should they do or what to do, and no one took Jia Xu's words to heart.
Niu Fu left 5,000 men and horses for Jia Xu to defend Michi, and he retreated overnight with his army. Xin'an City to Shaanxi City is one hundred and fifty miles, two days away, and the Northern Army arrived in one day and one night.
Looking at Shaanxi City in the twilight, looking at the big silk and colorful battle flags flying high on the city tower, Niu Fu and Li Dao and others were in a heavy mood.
Is Jia Xu's estimate correct? Did the main force of the Northern Xinjiang Army leave Shaancheng? Scouts flew to report that on the Maojin ferry and the Shaancheng ferry, the boats were shuttling back and forth, and the flow of people was like banners, and there was no sign of retreat of the Northern Xinjiang Army.
At this time, the war drums in the city were like thunder, and the sound of killing was like a landslide and the ground cracked, which was earth-shattering. Niu Fu hesitated.
The soldiers came in a hurry, exhausted, and could have suffered heavy casualties in the dark of night in a hasty siege, but Li Dao, Guo Yan and others strongly demanded an immediate siege.
Li Wei said that we are very familiar with Xu Rong, in the early years in Western Xinjiang, he fought with the Qiang people, never lost, and made many military exploits.
Otherwise, with his age and relationship, how could he be worshiped as the governor of Xiliang Mansion? At this time, if Xu Rong ambushed a group of men and horses in Kunshan and raided the camp in the middle of the night, our losses would be even greater.
A group of generals and generals in Xiliang all knew Xu Rong, this person was very powerful in the early years of war, let alone now.
Niu Fu no longer hesitated and resolutely ordered the siege of the city. One drum down. The Northern Frontier Army in the city retreated without a fight, and went directly out of the north gate to get on the boat and run away.
The Northern Army ran fast, and the Northern Army ran faster. Niu Fu and Li Dao and others threw themselves to the ground for Jia Xu's admiration.
Niu Fu urgently ordered the army to withdraw to Hongnong, and on the other hand, he urgently reported to Jia Xu that the army had passed through Shaanxi, please retreat quickly.
Xu Rong did not attack the city for three consecutive days, and the pond was very quiet. Jia Xu did not retreat during the day, and in the middle of the night, he quietly led 5,000 men and horses out of the city and galloped wildly.
At dawn, the army rushed to Wangyun Pavilion and was blocked by Yan Liang. After Yan Liang saw the main force of the Northern Army leaving Michi, he immediately went down the mountain to set up a formation.
Xu Rong's order to him was to stop the last group of northern troops who had evacuated Michi at all costs. In this battle, no matter what, the Northern Army must be beaten, so that they do not dare to continue attacking Kanto for the time being.
Jia Xu didn't say a word, and ordered 5,000 soldiers of the Northern Army that the army had been surrounded and there was nowhere to escape. Those who want to surrender surrender surrender, those who don't want to surrender, drop their weapons and go home.
The northern army suddenly bombed the battalion, and the 5,000 soldiers scattered in a hurry. Yan Liang and the soldiers were dumbfounded, they never expected that the Northern Army would suddenly bomb the camp.
Jia Xu took the opportunity to escape into Kunshan with more than a dozen personal guards, and went straight to Hongnong City by taking a small road. The five military commanders discussed with a group of officers of the Northern Army, and surrendered to Yan Liang with a few hundred personal guards.
Gao Shun, Sun Luan and others led their men and horses to chase and recruit the stragglers of the Northern Army. At noon, Zhichong General Yu Shi and Du Lieutenant Li Yun also rushed to Wangyun Pavilion with the forward battalion, and along the way they also recruited more than 2,000 stragglers of the Northern Army.
Yan Liang smiled bitterly and said to Yushi, these years, the war is getting fresher and fresher, and there are still such wars.
Niu Fu left Zhang Ji to defend Hongnong City, and he withdrew with his army all the way to Taolin Fortress. Niu Fu urgently reported to the Chang'an Imperial Court and Taishi Dong Zhuo.
The army's grain and grass were taken away by the Northern Xinjiang Army, and they were unable to continue the attack and were forced to withdraw. In mid-March, Chang'an.
Outside the house, it was pouring rain, and occasionally a few thunderclaps came from the distant sky, shaking the heavens and the earth.
Lu Bu stood in the study of Situ Mansion with his hands in his hands, looking at the green flowers and plants outside the window through the thin rain curtain, and was silent.
Since February, Guanzhong has been rainy and rainy, followed by two torrential rains from time to time, and occasionally a few storms, and the weather is very abnormal.
Due to the continuous rain, crops were damaged, the Weishui River swelled, and spring ploughing became a problem. The Son of Heaven immediately issued an order to worship heaven and earth to pray for the heavens to appear and let Guanzhong see the sun as soon as possible.
The worship should be the responsibility of the Taishi, but the Taishi Dong Zhuo has been staying in Yiwu, except for the New Year's visit to Weiyang Palace to meet the Son of Heaven, he has never come to Chang'an.
After the Son of Heaven's decree was sent to Yiwu, Dong Zhuo said that he was unwell and asked Lord Situ Wang Yun to be the chief priest.
Today is the day of the main sacrifice, Lord Situ Wang Yun led the ministers and hundreds of officials to set up a high altar in the suburbs to worship the heaven and earth, praying for an early sunny day in Guanzhong.
Lu Bu sighed softly. With such a heavy rain, Lord Situ and a group of ministers must be soaking wet.
God has eyes, should understand the suffering of the people, and stop the endless rain in Guanzhong. A cold breeze swept gently, and a faint mist drifted into the study, quietly sprinkling a little mercury on Lu Bu's face, and a little chill immediately seeped into his skin and penetrated his heart and spleen.
Lu Bu involuntarily shivered. Since Lord Taishi ordered troops to be sent to Guanxi, LΓΌ Bu and Zhang Liao's troops were transferred from Huaili City to Chencang.
Dong Zhuo obviously didn't believe Lu Bu and his soldiers, he was probably worried that when Lu Bu and Xu Rong faced off, they would defect.
So he transferred Lu Bu's army to the west of Fufeng County to help Huangfuhong garrison Dasanguan and prevent Han Sui and Ma Teng's army from harassing Sanfu when the pass was empty.
Lu Bu was not dissatisfied, on the contrary, he was very happy. This is not only because he is unwilling to fight against Xu Rong and the Northern Frontier Army on the battlefield, but also because he is close to revenge and the opportunity to eradicate the ** pigtail.
Lu Bu slowly turned around and paced slowly in the study. I know Wang Yun because of Zhang Liao's relationship.
Wang Yun's family background is illustrious, his fame shocks the world, and he is also the three important ministers of the court, and he cannot make friends with his own identity.
Although he is also a Zhonglang general of 2,000 stones, because of his background, knowledge, etc., Wang Yun will not look at himself squarely.
Zhang Liao's teacher is Guo Yun, who has been friends with Wang Yun for many years, and Zhang Liao is also Wang Yun's son and nephew.
Because of the matter of military salary, Zhang Liao went to Wang Yun for help. Wang Yun heard that it was to pay the Bingzhou army, so he agreed, and it was done immediately.
I was very grateful and went to thank Zhang Liao together. Wang Yun is very good to himself. I can't express my gratitude to Wang Yun, I can only say
"Good". Since that acquaintance, Wang Yun often invited himself to Situ Mansion to participate in various banquets, introduced himself to many gate lords and magnates, celebrities and heroes, and secretly added a lot of ordnance to the Bingzhou army.
In addition, on the New Year, he bought himself a mansion in Chang'an, so that he could settle down his family, but these are not the main reasons why he is grateful to Wang Yun.
The reason why he is willing to be loyal to Wang Yun is because Wang Yun believes in himself and gives him the opportunity to take revenge and serve the country.
Wang Yun wants to kill Dong Zhuo. Wang Yun trusted himself and entrusted himself with the important task of killing Dong Zhuo, saving the Son of Heaven, and revitalizing the community.
The soldier died for his confidant, and for the first time he deeply felt the meaning of this sentence. But to kill Dong Zhuo, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky.
Dong Zhuo is now staying in the tall and sturdy Hewu, which has Dong Xian's 7,000 troops, 3,000 iron cavalry, and food and materials that are claimed to be available for 30 years, which are unbreakable.
When Dong Zhuo arrived in Chang'an, there were thousands of heavy soldiers guarding him before and after, and ordinary people could not get close, including himself, and could only walk to a place six steps away from Dong Zhuo.
There is no chance of success, either by using the army or by assassinating alone. I was entrusted by Wang Yun, and I thought hard for a long time, but I didn't come up with any plan to punish **.
If you want to kill Dong Zhuo, it is impossible to rely on your own 6,000 state army. Killing Dong Zhuo not only involved the army, the children of the Dong family and Dong Zhuo's many loyal subordinates, but also involved the safety of the Son of Heaven, the ministers and officials, and the gate lords, the three counties and hundreds of thousands of people in Guanzhong.
As long as there is an omission in one place, the plan to punish ** may fail, Guanzhong may fall into a place of no return, and it is more likely that even the life of the Son of Heaven and the society of the Han Dynasty will be buried together.
I had a secret conversation with Wang Yun several times, mentioning many unsolvable points, hoping that Wang Yun could help solve them, but Wang Yun refused every time, very simply.
I was very frustrated, so I could only try to think of a way and try my best to find a way. After the army arrived in Chencang this time, Wang Yun did not contact him until the day before yesterday.
Wang Yun is anxious to return to Chang'an secretly, what's the urgency? Jump to
