76.Chapter 76: The Wenzhao Controversy

After Wang Yan heard this, he suddenly brightened, and his face showed joy.

He is a very smart person, but the concept that Chen Xu said is too shocking, and he didn't think of it before. After listening to Chen Xu's description, Wang Yan suddenly became enlightened.

Hiding troops from the people and developing believers; Regardless of the gains and losses of one city and one pool, preserve your own strength; Surround the city with the poor land of the countryside; Sit back and wait for the world to change and fish in troubled waters......

It can be said that although Chen Xu spoke very generally, each of them was thought-provoking.

The valuable experience accumulated by the revolutions of later generations is by no means nonsense. They have stood the test of time and confirmed the possibility of its success. It was with this policy that the Red Army of later generations was able to have the last laugh.

Wang Yan kept chattering, dancing with his hands, and his face flushed. After a long time, he calmed down, pounced directly on Chen Xu, and hugged him fiercely.

Suddenly, Wang Yan thought of the scene where Hua Xiong was shot in a chrysanthemum, and felt a chill all over his body, so he quickly let go of Chen Xu and left Chen Xu's side.

"Ahem, Wen Zhao, I was so excited just now." Wang Yan felt that his movements were too obvious, and he laughed twice before he said in disguise.

Chen Xu had a clear heart, and when he saw Wang Yan's eyes, he knew what he was thinking. Secretly scolding that Huaxiong's pro-soldier was troublesome, Chen Xu couldn't say anything, so he could only pretend to be confused and said: "It's okay!" Anyway! ”

However, there is still a layer of worry in his heart, although this plan is the best way out for the Yellow Turban Army now, but the current Yellow Turban commander may not agree to this approach.

Zhang Jiao and others have been preaching for more than ten years, gathering millions of Yellow Turban troops, and are dreaming of subverting the Han family, how can they be willing to give up the city that they have finally captured?

He told Wang Yan about his worries, and Wang Yan felt as if there was a basin of cold water poured on his head.

His furrowed brow showed the extreme tangle in his heart.

After a long time, gritting his teeth, Wang Yan said firmly: "No matter what, I will inform General Rengong of this plan, even if General Rengong does not agree, I will present it to General Tiangong." ”

In the Yellow Turban Uprising, Zhang Jiao was the 'Tiangong General', Zhang Bao was the 'Digong General', Zhang Liang was the 'Rengong General', and the people under him were called Qu Shuai.

Chen Xu saw Wang Yan like this, and persuaded him several times, but he just didn't listen, and left the big tent directly to find Zhang Liang.

Quzhou City is located on the west bank of Zhangshui and is a north-south traffic artery. East to Weixian, Guangzong, cross the bridge to Qinghe country; Go west to Guangping, Guangnian can go to Zhao State.

With such an important position, it is no wonder that the Yellow Turban Army would send Zhang Liang to garrison here. With convenient water and land transportation, fertile land and pleasant climate, it was originally a country of abundance.

However, natural and man-made disasters have turned this beautiful place beyond recognition.

Today's Chen Xu is just an idle position, except for the five hundred parts he brought from Puyang, no one in the Yellow Turban Army will obey his orders.

Since he came to the end of the Han Dynasty, he has been struggling to survive, but he doesn't want to, but now he actually has a moment of leisure.

Shaking his head, looking at Wang Yanyuan's back, he didn't say anything after all.

'Not in his position, not in his politics', since the Yellow Turban does not reuse him, there is no need for him to plan desperately for them. Besides, if Zhang Liang arranges a charge for 'confusing the army' for him at that time, he will really want to cry without tears.

Without thinking about other troubles, he took his two brothers and a hundred or so people and took the initiative to take over the patrol.

It is said to be a patrol, but in fact, it can be regarded as a distraction. When they came to the bank of the Zhangshui River, they couldn't help but feel excited.

Although the three brothers live in Puyang City, they have been with the Yellow River since childhood. But the water of the Yellow River is too turbid, and there is a kind of roughness and heroism; On the other hand, Zhangshui is delicate but not lacking in atmosphere, surging but gentle.

Looking at the scenery on the bank of the Zhangshui River, Chen Xu suddenly saw that there was a Yellow Turban Army stationed on the west bank of Zhangshui in front of him. He couldn't help but take the crowd to visit the details.

"Stop coming!"

Before everyone arrived at the gate of the camp, they saw the Yellow Turban Army guarding the bridge.

Chen Xu waved his hand to signal everyone to stop, and said alone: "Brothers of the Yellow Turban Army, we are the Yellow Turban Army that has just come from Dongjun, and I am a member of Wang Yanqu Shuai's account, leading his brothers to inspect various places. ”

The yellow turban general who guarded the Zhangshui bridgehead made everyone collect their weapons. In fact, he had already seen the outfits of Chen Xu and others, and knew that it was his own person. What I did just now was just a matter of routine.

Chen Xu stepped forward and talked with this general for a long time, only to know that the Zhangshui River is wide, and it is not easy to build a bridge, and there is only this one bridge within a radius of 100 miles.

After the Yellow Turban repelled several thousand officers and soldiers of Huaxiong, General Rengong sent 1,000 men to guard the bridgehead and cut off the east-west communication.

This general is a local, and he is also familiar with the geography of this place, and he is very bold and likes to talk.

Chen Xu learned from him that now that the officers and soldiers have occupied Wei County and Qiu County, the army has gathered in Wei County, and they are looking at Guangzong. However, Wei County was surrounded by Guangzong, Quzhou, and Qiu counties.

Hearing this, Chen Xu's heart moved.

Most of the officers and soldiers are now assembled in Wei County to engage the Yellow Turban Army of Guangzong. Now that Quzhou and Guangzong are occupied by the Yellow Turban Army, if they can surprise attack Qiu County, they can completely cut off the food route for officers and soldiers and surround them in the isolated city of Wei County.

The lonely city cannot be defended, if so, gather all the yellow turbans, and it may not be impossible to completely annihilate the officers and soldiers who have cut off the grain route.

Thinking of this, Chen Xu hurriedly bid farewell to this yellow turban general and rushed to Quzhou City. He wanted to look at the map and study the feasibility of the road plan.

As soon as he returned to the tent, he heard the sound of Wang Yan smashing things. Without thinking too much, I knew that Wang Yan offered Zhang Liang a plan and was rejected.

When Chen Xu entered the door, Wang Yan came to him and said angrily: "I tried my best to think about the Yellow Turban Army, but I didn't want to be accused of bad intentions and confusing the army, I was really angry!" ”

Chen Xu had expected what happened to Wang Yan, and after a few comforts, he hurriedly opened the map. After a long time, a smile appeared on Chen Xu's face.

Seeing this, Wang Yan knew that Chen Xu had other ideas, and hurriedly asked, "What Wen Zhao likes, what is it?" ”

Chen Xu opened his mouth and was about to answer, thinking of Zhang Liang's attitude towards himself and others, but he wanted to speak and stopped.

Wang Yan didn't comply, and continued to ask: "Wen Zhao doesn't need to be prospering, you can come quickly if you have something." ”

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Xu gritted his teeth after all, pointed to the map and said: "Brother Junge, please see, the army of officers and soldiers is stationed in Wei County, and Ranwei County is surrounded by Guangzong, Quzhou, and Qiu counties. ”

"Quzhou City is under our control, and the west road of officers and soldiers has been cut off. If you can collect the ships and guard the bridge, 2,000 men and horses can block tens of thousands of officers and soldiers. ”

"In the east and north of Wei County, tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops were gathered by the great virtuous and good divisions, and the officers and soldiers fought with the great virtuous and good divisions, and victory and defeat were inseparable."

"Today, the officers and soldiers are left with only one road from Nanfang Qiu County, which can transport grain and grass to them."

"If we wait for the Xingqi soldiers, seize Qiu County. and then dispatched more than 10,000 yellow scarves in Quzhou to defend Qiu County. The food routes for the officers and soldiers were cut off, and it had become an isolated city, and within a few days, it would surely collapse without a fight. ”

"At that time, we will do our best to annihilate the officers and soldiers of Jizhou, just around the corner!" The more Chen Xu spoke, the more excited he became, and Wang Yan and Chen Jing were even more dancing.

After a long time, Wang Yan took a few deep breaths, calmed down his surging emotions, and calmed down.

He frowned and said: "The importance of Qiu County is self-evident, how can officers and soldiers not be garrisoned by a large army and defended tightly?" ”

When Chen Xu heard this, he laughed and said, "Dong Zhuo's house, he doesn't know the art of war, and he rushes forward lightly. ”

"When Lu Zhi was there, he was not impatient after several defeats, he fought steadily, sent heavy troops to Quzhou and Qiu County, and forced the great sages and teachers to Guangzong step by step."

However, the eunuch Lu Zhizhi was framed and imprisoned, and after he was taken back to the capital. Dong Zhuo's house, several times of failed marches, was anxious. He withdrew most of the troops in Quzhou and Qiu County, and transferred all of them to Wei County, intending to fight to the death with the great sages and good teachers. ”

"But I don't want to, the great virtuous and good teacher sent General Ren Gong to go north from Guangzong first, cross Zhangshui through Boluojin, and then go south to attack Quzhou, which cut off Dong Zhuo's western grain road."

"Quzhou was lost, Dong Zhuo was afraid that the court would blame him, so he gathered troops and horses to attack Guangzong on the one hand, and sent Huaxiong to lead 5,000 officers and soldiers to attack Quzhou."

What Chen Xu said was all learned from the mouth of the Yellow Turban at the head of the Zhangshui Bridge.

It was only then that Wang Yan suddenly realized. He just came to Jizhou, and he didn't know much about the war in Jizhou, but now after listening to Chen Xu's words, he suddenly became enlightened.

Then, Chen Xu continued: "Now that Huaxiong has been defeated, if we don't take advantage of Dong Zhuo's reaction, we will surprise Qiu County. I'm afraid that if Dong Zhuo is moved, he will definitely send heavy troops to garrison Qiu County. At that time, if you want to break through Qiu County, it will be difficult to climb to the sky! ”

Speaking of this, Chen Xu's face was quite serious.

A light flashed in Wang Yan's eyes, and he nodded in response: "If you don't take Qiu County at this time, when will you stay?" ”
