Chapter 4: The First Section of the Shipwreck

"General, it's the army of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Wang Kuang." Wang Dang's black face was slightly flushed, and his eyes were round, as if he was about to breathe fire, and he was extremely angry.

"They surrounded the Yellow Turban Army in Inner Yellow City."

"Accurate message?" Li Hong jumped up and hurriedly walked to the map hanging on the side of the big tent.

"Where did the news come from?" This is an urgent report sent by Jingzhi (Sun Qin) from Yecheng by 800 miles of fast ride.

Wang Dang pointed to a scroll of paper in his hand and said eagerly, "General, you said that you want to help them live a good life.

I beg you, save them.

Li Hong stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "Okay, I'll go save them." He took the paperwork from Wang Dang's hand, turned his head and said to the priest standing behind him,

"The order, the Black Panther Yicong immediately assembled. Tell Zhang Zhen to let him take the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Battalion to ride on their war horses and set off from the camp with Tongyi. Hurry, hurry......" Sacrifice Blade rushed out of the tent.

The drums of war resounded through the camp in an instant. Wang Dang was very excited, and knelt down,

"General, my Wang Heizi in this life and this life, I only listen to the general alone, I will do whatever the general tells me to do, even if I am broken, I will not give up."

"Kuroko, hurry up." Li Hong dragged Wang Dang,

"Go and gather your guards and set out with me. There are more than 500 miles to go to Neihuang, we are traveling day and night, hurry up, maybe it's still too late, go quickly. "Sun Qin reported urgently.

In late March, the armies of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Wang Kuang began to attack the Yellow Turban Army of Montenegro. The leaders of the Yellow Turban Army, Ku Chief, Tao Sheng, Qing Niujiao, and Liu Shi, met the enemy separately.

Wang Kuang and Zhang Yang's Hanoi army took the lead in attacking Lugushan Mountain, and Tao Sheng was defeated and retreated to Qi Garden.

Yuan Shao attacked Dangyin and pinned down the bitter chieftain and Liu Shi, while Cao Cao took the opportunity to lead his troops to raid Qiyuan. Tao Sheng desperately broke through, Wang Kuang, Cao Cao, and Zhang Yang led their troops to pursue, and the army went straight to Bentun in Montenegro.

Qingniujiao led his troops to defend Bentun. Tao Sheng took the remnants and covered the women, children, old and children in Bentun to retreat in the direction of Yecheng.

The 20,000 troops of Qingniujiao held on for three days, and finally all of them were killed. Before dying, Qingniujiao told his men to burn Bentun so that the enemy would not be able to catch even a single grass.

Bentun of Montenegro was reduced to ashes in the flames, and the raging fire was like the unyielding oath of the Yellow Turban Army soldiers to death.

Wang Kuang, Cao Cao, and Zhang Yang immediately swung their troops to kill Dangyin. Ku Chief and Liu Shi were attacked by the front and rear of the official army, and suffered heavy casualties.

When the retreat was blocked, they had no choice but to fight their way forward and prepare to join the main army of poison and solidity at Guantao.

At this time, Yu Poison and Zheng Gu were leading the army to retreat to Montenegro, and the two armies met in Neihuang. When the Yellow Turban generals heard that Bentun had been destroyed and their only place of refuge had been burned to ashes, they were immediately furious and violently slaughtered the officers and soldiers who were chasing after them.

However, they were very unfortunate and fell into an ambush and were surrounded near Huang Ze in Neihuang. At this moment, on the left side of the Yellow Turban Army is a large lake within a radius of dozens of miles, and on the right side is the Dangshui River.

There are only two ways out, one is to break through and kill to Montenegro, but there is no more Bentun in Montenegro, and it is also a dead end to kill back, only to turn back and kill to the east.

There are two options to the east, one is to kill Yecheng. It was only one hundred and fifty miles north of Yecheng, and it could quickly get assistance from the Northern Xinjiang Army, but the Yellow Turban Army had to take refuge in the general because of this.

The second is to kill the East County of Yanzhou, cross the river south as soon as possible to join the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, but at this time the Yellow Turban Army has run out of food and grass, and it is unable to continue to fight more than 400 miles to the Dunqiu and Dongwuyang areas of the East County.

After a fierce quarrel, the generals of the Yellow Turban Army gave up going north to Yecheng, and also gave up going south to join the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou.

Since you can't survive, let's die. The generals of the Yellow Turban Army, such as Zhenggu, Ku Chief, and Dahong, insisted on a decisive battle with Yuan Shao in Neihuang.

Yu Yu agreed, but he didn't want to see hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers accompany him and these madmen to die in the Huangze Great Lake, he wanted some people to live.

Yu Poison asked a strong martial guard to swim across the Dangshui River and rushed to Yecheng for help. In the letter, Yu Poison detailed the current dangerous situation of the Yellow Turban Army in Montenegro, hoping that the general could help.

In any case, the Yellow Turban Army will definitely be able to inflict heavy losses on Yuan Shao in this battle, which should be the result that the general is willing to see.

If the general can launch another fierce blow when Yuan Shao and the Yellow Turban Army are both defeated, he will be able to completely annihilate Yuan Shao.

As long as Yuan Shao can be killed and Yuan Shao's army is completely annihilated, even if the Yellow Turban Army is all killed, it will be blind to death.

Sun Qin said in the book that according to the general's order, we must do everything possible to help the Yellow Turban Army in Montenegro and help the hundreds of thousands of displaced people stranded in the mountains to survive, but I am really powerless.

Although in recent times, General Koyi has recruited more than 20,000 captives to replenish the army, but now he has led the army to attack Anpingguo, and Yecheng only has my 8,000 parts.

These 8,000 troops had to defend the city, to protect the Handan battalion, to ensure the spring ploughing of the southern counties and townships of Wei County, and to ensure the safety of the galloping road, so as to ensure that the grain and grass were delivered to the front-line army on time.

In addition, Tao Sheng, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army in Montenegro, had already rushed to Yecheng with more than 2,000 remnants, and with him were the displaced people on the mountain.

I have urgently told Zhao Jian, the lieutenant of the Diannong, and Duan Xuan, the lieutenant of Handan Xingyuan, and asked them to quickly find a way to solve the problem of feeding the homeless.

It is estimated that by the end of this month, there will be about 400,000 to 500,000 displaced people in Yecheng alone, and the general is requested to settle them as soon as possible, so as not to cause a riot and cause trouble in Jizhou.

Zhu Mu, Zheng Yan, Ding Li, Xu Ming, Zhu Wei and others hurriedly walked into the big tent.

"General, what's wrong?" Zhu Mu asked nervously.

"The Yellow Turban Army is surrounded by Yuan Shao, and I want to rush to support." Li Hong said while putting on his armor,

"Gongding, tomorrow you will march to Nanpi in Bohai County with the army and grain and grass." Zhu Mu glanced at Sun Qin's urgent report, and a hint of joy suddenly appeared on his face,

"The general is going to reap the fisherman's profits?"

"Now it's not a matter of the fishermen's profit, but of the Montenegrin homeless." Li Hong looked at Zheng Yan and said,

"Yinchuan, you immediately go to Handan to be in charge, and ask Mingzhi (Duan Xuan) to be responsible for escorting the grain and grass, and don't worry about other things. In addition, let's see if Ma Riyan, Cui Lie and other adults have arrived in Handan. If they arrive, ask Lord Ma Riyan to preside over the political affairs of Jizhou and immediately form the Jizhou Mansion. Li Hong pointed at Xu Chao again,

"Gongji, you temporarily lead the prime minister of Ganling, appease the people of the counties, and complete the spring plowing as much as possible. Wang Dang was in charge of the garrison of Ganling, and his army was under your command during his absence from Ganling. ”

"Jingming......" Li Hong picked up a stack of documents and handed it to Ding Li,

"I have rushed to the imperial court to build another Diannong Duwei Mansion in the south of Jizhou, which is responsible for relocating the displaced people in the southern counties of Jizhou. Zhao Jian is too busy, too busy, I don't think I should trouble him, I'll leave this matter to you. You temporarily lead the Wei County Taishou, and concurrently lead the Dian Nong Commander, and immediately go to Yecheng to take office. Ding Li held the paperwork in his hand and looked at Li Hong in disbelief, feeling excited.

At this moment, he has only one thought, he wants to repay the general's trust with a hundredfold and thousandfold effort. Thinking of his previous misunderstanding of the general, Ding Li felt very guilty.

"Zhongfu, you go to Yecheng with Jingming." Li Hong pointed at Zhu Wei and said,

"When the official appointment documents of the imperial court come down, you will be mainly responsible for the affairs of Tuntian. The main subordinates of each province are still to use the original officials as much as possible. I have too few people here, so everyone has to work a lot. And they bowed down to receive the commandment.

The curtain was lifted, and Wang Dang leaned in for most of his body and shouted, "General, the iron cavalry has been assembled." ”

"Let's go, let's go......" Li Hong waved his hand at him vigorously,

"Let's go."

"General......" Zheng Yan shouted, and stopped talking. Li Hong asked him to preside over the affairs of Handan, which was equivalent to handing over all the military and political affairs of Jizhou to him.

Li Hong's trust and trust made him very afraid.

"Hidden River ......" Li Hong turned around and patted him on the shoulder,

"If we want to stabilize Jizhou, we still have to fight a lot of battles, and the food and salary of the army depends on you." Li Hong looked at everyone and said with a slight smile: "We are all still young, we have strength, as long as we work together, we can do anything." "Jizhou, Wei County, Neihuang.

Yuan Shao walked around the big tent with his hands behind his back, his expression grim. In his hand, he was holding a letter, which was sent by Zhang Miao.

Zhang Miao told him in the book that Zhou Qian, the assassin of Yangzhou, died of illness. Zhou Gan died suddenly, and Yangzhou Mansion was suddenly in chaos.

And the grain and grass supplied by Yangzhou to Yuan Tan and the army of Gao Gan were then cut off. Yuan Tan and Gao Gan immediately asked Zhang Miao to supply them with all the grain and grass of the army, but Zhang immediately refused.

Because of its close proximity to Gyeonggi and the westernmost part of Yanzhou, Chenliu County has not been poisoned by war for the past two years, and it can still protect itself in taxes and grain.

Since Dong Zhuo's troops went out of Tongguan to attack the Kwantung region, Zhang Miao, under the persecution of Yuan Shao and Zhu Jun, and also for his own safety, began to provide a part of the food and salary to the Northern Frontier Army in the Kwantung region.

However, in the spring of this year, things suddenly changed. First of all, Yuan Shao was driven out of Jizhou, and Yuan Shao asked him for help and asked for grain and grass.

Secondly, the war in Kansai broke out again, Zhu Jun and Xu Rong organized a large army to counterattack, and the demand for grain and grass in Luoyang skyrocketed.

Although Zhang Miao only provided part of it, he couldn't stand it anymore. Now that something happened in Yangzhou, Yuan Tan also asked him for grain and grass, and Zhang Miao was powerless to support it.

"I am in a hurry to write to Meng Zhuo (Zhang Miao) to urge grain and grass." Yuan Shao stopped, looked at Fu Zhu and said,

"I have been friends with him for more than 20 years, and he will not give this thin face."

"My lord, in my opinion, Lord Zhang does have difficulties." Frustrated said,

"The grain and grass supplied to Luoyang now cannot be cut off no matter what. If the Northern Xinjiang Army is forced to withdraw to Hedong and allow the Northern Army to invade Guandong and occupy Luoyang, then it will be much more difficult for us to capture Luoyang in the future. In my opinion, it is better to let Yuan Tan stop attacking for the time being, and ask Lord Zhang to supply us with grain and grass for the time being. As long as we eliminate this Yellow Turban Army, Hanoi County will be able to connect with Henan Yin, Yanzhou's Dong County, and Chenliu County. Then wait until Yuan Tan and Liu Biao drive Yuan away, and we will surround Luoyang, and Luoyang will be just around the corner. ”

"However, as soon as the war in Yuzhou stops, Yuan Shu can concentrate his forces on attacking Liu Biao, and once Liu Biao is defeated, he will not be able to form a front and rear attack, and it will be difficult to drive Yuan Shu out of Nanyang in the future, and the battle in Yuzhou will also be fought." Guo Tu immediately objected.

"My lord, send someone south as soon as possible to serve as the assassin of Yangzhou, and restore Yangzhou's supply of grain and grass to Yuan Tan's army." Pointing to the map, the judge said,

"At present, Lord Zhang Qi of Anping Kingdom is still holding on to the city, and Hejian Kingdom and Bohai County are still in the hands of Gongsun Zhan, and Li Hong will not lead the army to Neihuang at this time. Therefore, we can completely surround but not fight, and trap the Yellow Turban Army to death in Huangze. The Yellow Turban Army is short of food and grass, and it will collapse as soon as possible, and we can win without a fight. While everyone was talking, Feng Ji suddenly ran in with a panicked look.

"My lord, Yanzhou Assassin Liu Dai reported urgently, Guan Cheng, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou, suddenly led his army to launch a fierce attack on Jinan, the captain Zou Jing was killed, and Liu Yun, the king of Jinan, was killed." When Liu Yun, the king of Jinan, was besieged in Dongpingling, he asked Liu Dai and Tao Qian for help.

Liu Dai immediately joined with Bao Xin, the minister of Jibei, Zheng Sui, the minister of Rencheng, Wu Zi, the Taishou of Jiyin, and the Taishou of Yuan Yi of Shanyang, and gathered 30,000 troops to attack Jinan.

Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian failed to send troops to rescue because the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army Sun Guan attacked Donghai County. Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others were shocked and hurriedly gathered in front of the map.

"It's not good, Lord Liu Dai has been tricked." Cao Cao's face suddenly changed,

"Quick, hurry up to Lord Liu Dai, don't enter Jinan, immediately retreat to the front line of Dongping Kingdom." He shouted as he flew out of the tent.

If the army of all counties in Yanzhou is annihilated, Yanzhou will become the world of the Yellow Turban Army. Once Dongjun was lost, Cao Cao would not even have a place to stay.

Yuan Shao, Fu Zhu, Tian Feng and others looked at each other with sad expressions.

"It's too late, the tens of thousands of troops in Yanzhou are finished." Tian Feng sighed in frustration,

"The Yellow Turbans are getting better and better."

"After a few years of fighting, the Yellow Turban Army is no longer a rabble." Yuan Shao shook his head and patted the table lightly,

"We all thought that Sima Ju was going to cross the Yellow River, but who knew that he would use this opportunity to plot against Yanzhou. If this person doesn't kill for a day, the Central Plains will be uneasy for a day. Feng Ji looked at Yuan Shao and said angrily: "My lord, tomorrow we will fight poison and swallow the Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army in one bite." ”

"Lack of food and grass......" Before he finished speaking, Feng Ji slapped his palm on the case.

"If you don't have enough food and grass, you can't fight? Do you starve to death if you don't eat for a day? "Hurry up.

"Where's the urgency?" Yuan Shao saw Geng Bao trotting all the way and hurriedly asked.

"Lord Chun Yuqiong reports urgently, there is a change in Kanto." Yuan Shao's heart jumped violently, and he immediately opened the letter.

"Zhang Miao, you deceive people too much." Yuan Shao didn't wait to finish reading the letter, and roared angrily,

"Come on, kill Wang Kuang for me." Jump to
