Chapter 142: Despised
The battalion had replaced the wounded horses and men, and the battalion of 8,000 guards had regrouped, each with a hundred arrows and a lot of jerky.
Since they were all marching slowly for the past few days, the guard battalion was in good condition, and there was no need to rest, so they said goodbye to Bai Feng and the others, and the guard battalion began to gallop towards Yingchuan.
Yingchuan's Yellow Turban is one of the main forces, led by Bocai and Peng Tuo, gathering hundreds of thousands, and tens of thousands of elites, controlling the first line of Yingchuan, Runan, and Chen Guo, and is powerful.
In order to fight against this Yellow Turban, the imperial court sent Huang Fu Song, the general of the left middle lang, and Zhu Jun, the general of the right middle lang, to lead more than 40,000 foot cavalry to attack the Yellow Turban of Yingchuan.
Ye Chen went this time to find Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, join forces with them, and attack the enemy of Yingchuan together.
After a continuous rapid march, Ye Chen and they arrived at Yingchuan in about ten days, because there were often small yellow scarves blocking them along the way, so the speed was much slower.
After arriving in Yingchuan, Ye Chen and the others learned that Huangfu Song had led the army to fight the Yellow Turban several times, but the Yellow Turban thieves were powerful and defeated a few times.
Bypassing the yellow scarf all the way, Ye Chen found the camp where Huangfu Song was.
"Stop coming." Five miles outside the Huangfu Song camp, Ye Chen and the others were stopped, and they were stopped by a team of more than a dozen people.
"In Ye Chen, Lower Liaodong, I have ordered the rebel army to come to help suppress the bandits, please also report."
The man saw that Ye Chen's team was strong, well-equipped, and all of them were cavalry, so he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and told the rest of the people to guard here, and he quickly returned to the camp and went to report.
Huangfu Song is discussing countermeasures with Zhu Jun in the camp tent, although they have been attacking continuously in the past few days, but the Yellow Turban is powerful, and now they occupy the city, and there is no progress for a while.
"Newspaper. Report to the two generals that there are rebels outside to vote, supporting the rebel army and wanting to help our army break the thieves. ”
"Rebels? Who is it and how many people are there? "Huangfu Song is how to break the thief and hurt troubles, at this time there is a righteous army to vote, of course it is a good thing, although he has more than 40,000 people, but the yellow turban has hundreds of thousands of people, the strength is still slightly insufficient.
"The other party claims to be Liaodong Ye Chen, and there are soldiers and horses under his command..."
"Stop, what you just said was Liaodong Ye Chen? Are you sure? Before the military Sima could finish speaking, Zhu Jun interrupted and asked.
"He does claim to be Liaodong Ye Chen." The military Sima replied, he was very puzzled in his heart, could it be that this Liaodong Ye Chen had a great background, even General Zhu Jun knew about it, and secretly rejoiced that he had not offended him just now.
"What's the matter, Master Zhu, is there a problem?" Huangfu Song asked suspiciously.
"If it's really Liaodong Ye Chen, then I think it's the Ye Chen who was kicked out of Cai Yong's Mansion two years ago." Zhu Jun said.
When Huangfu Song heard this, he also remembered who Ye Chen was, his face darkened, he was from a famous family, and he naturally looked down on Ye Chen's behavior of stammering eunuchs.
"Hmph, those who play slippery speculation don't have any ability to think about it, and the rebels come to vote, probably just to earn capital for promotion." Huangfu Song said angrily.
Zhu Jun was born poor, but he was not so angry, but in his bones he also hated those eunuchs who brought disaster to the country and the people, so he didn't have much affection for Ye Chen.
Huangfu Song was angry and said, "Just drive him away, so as not to be an eyesore." ”
"No, after all, His Majesty the Emperor issued an edict to recruit the righteous army, although Ye Chen colluded with the eunuch and came here for an impure purpose, but we can't drive him away, and if we drive him away, then who will dare to come to serve our army in the future." As soon as Zhu Jun heard Huangfu Song's angry words, he immediately analyzed to him.
Huangfu Song is a smart person, and when he heard it, he knew that he couldn't drive people away, but he was just angry.
"Then what do you say, if we let him join our camp, once his combat effectiveness fails, or he escapes temporarily, it will have disastrous consequences for us.
Huangfu Song said with a frown.
"We can't drive him away, we can let him take on some unimportant tasks independently, so that it will neither hinder us nor be realized." Zhu Jun said to Huangfu Song.
"Well, yes, we plan to attack Yingchuan in the next few days, so let him guard our back road and help us guard the passage to Changshe in the northeast of Yingchuan." Huangfu Song smiled after speaking, he didn't think that he would be defeated by the Yellow Turban and retreat to the Long Society, so letting Ye Chen and them defend the Long Society was just one of his words.
"That's fine, but to show how much we value him, we told him that he can play freely as long as he is safe at the back. In this way, even the court can't say anything about us. Zhu Jun said with a triumphant smile.
Huangfu Song also smiled when he heard this, thinking that Ye Chen's team didn't run away, and even took the initiative to attack? He never thought that this Ye Chen's team had much combat effectiveness.
"By the way, I also want to tell him that there is a shortage of food in our barracks, so we can only provide him with a small part, and they have to raise the rest themselves."
It seems that Huang Fu Song really doesn't have a good impression of Ye Chen, if he doesn't take care of the imperial court, maybe Huang Fu Song will really blow him away.
In his own opinion, the thousands of cavalry on the other side, looking at the momentum of those cavalry, are much more majestic and powerful than their own side, and each of them exudes murderous aura, as if they have experienced a hundred battles, and listening to the words of the two generals, they do not intend to reuse it, and even if they do not take into account the feelings of the imperial court, they are going to abandon it.
However, since the two generals have already made a decision, then he can only carry it out, and when the big tent is released, the military Sima immediately goes to pass the order.
"I'm tired, I don't know what General Huangfu and General Zhu said." After waiting for almost an hour, seeing that the military Sima who had gone to report came back, Ye Chen hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"The two generals said, now that the camp is full, it can't be arranged, let you go to the northeast of Yingchuan to guard the road to Changshe to ensure the safety of our army's rear road, and the other two generals also said that under the condition of ensuring the safety of the back road, you can attack freely, and because of the shortage of military food, you can only provide you with a small amount of food.
”
Jun Sima's words made Ye Chen a little surprised, he had thousands of cavalry to defect, and the other party didn't even meet him, but Ye Chen didn't feel that he was being despised because the two generals asked him to guard the road to Changshe.
Ye Chen knew that Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were defeated by the Yellow Turban, and then retreated to Changshe, and were besieged in Changshe, and finally Huangfu Song came up with a plan to burn the Yellow Turban camp to defeat the Yellow Turban. Therefore, letting Ye Chen guard the road to Changshe, Ye Chen felt that it was very necessary and very important.
"Okay, let's go and arrange the defense, please return to the two generals, Ye Chen will firmly guard the back road of my army." After Ye Chen finished speaking, he bowed to this military Sima.
Seeing Ye Chen so solemn, the military Sima said unnaturally: "Okay, please rest assured, I will definitely tell the two generals." ”
Sima Jun secretly thought in his heart: "I don't know what the two generals think, the combat effectiveness of this army in front of me is definitely not weak, not only not weak, but also very strong, but it is a pity to put them in the rear." ”
But this is not something that he can change as a military horse, he shook his head and continued to patrol, he would not go to tell the two generals again, and it would be in vain to go, and it was estimated that he was driven out without saying a word.
After Ye Chen left the Han army camp, he immediately set off, found a place to camp twenty miles northeast of Yingchuan, and began to arrange defenses, and at the same time sent scouts to probe all movements around him.
Until now, Ye Chen didn't know that he was completely despised, and even completely ignored by the two lieutenant generals, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, and put him here, just for fear that he would drag himself back, and he was afraid that he would be an eyesore in front of them, and at the same time, the two generals would not have thought that their actions would be able to help them a lot later, which also made them feel very ashamed afterwards.
