Lü Bu left the battlefield with his iron cavalry, covering the rapid retreat of the infantry army. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Xun Di led his army across the battlefield and followed behind the army of foot soldiers.

Zhao Yun, Yan Rou and others led the army to kill quickly, blocking the way of Zhang Ji, Wang Fang and Huang Fuhong, and the iron cavalry army blocked the road with dense long arrows to block the pursuers.

Huangfuhong suddenly stopped his horse and said loudly: "Mingjin, immediately withdraw from the battlefield and return to the camp, quickly, quickly......"

The golden gong sounded, and the army stopped.

Zhang Ji and Wang Fang came from the front one after another and asked, "Jianshou, why do you want to withdraw the army?" Don't fight? ”

"No more fighting." Huang Fuhong said nervously, "Our plan must have leaked." You see, the Northern Frontier Army withdrew unhurriedly and in an orderly manner, and it was obviously well prepared. Look at Yuan Shao again, as soon as we fight, he retreated faster and let the Northern Xinjiang Army leave calmly. There must be a famous hall here, let's go quickly, guard the camp first, and don't let people copy our back road. ”

"You mean, Yuan Shao used us to scare away the Northern Frontier Army, and then counterattacked us?" Wang Fang asked incredulously, "Jianshou, Yuan Shao fought with Zhao Yun and Xu Da for a day, flesh and blood flying, and still have the strength to beat us?" ”

"I don't know if Yuan Shao will fight us, but Yuan Shao's retreat has given the Northern Xinjiang Army enough time to withdraw from the battlefield. The possibility of defeating the Northern Frontier Army has been completely lost. Huang Fuhong looked at the two of them worriedly, "Yuan Shao wants to go back to the offensive now, it's almost impossible, even if he can muster up morale and lead the army to attack again, but the Northern Xinjiang Army has already withdrawn, and he can't catch up if he wants to." Now that there is no possibility of defeating the Northern Frontier Army, will he take the opportunity to attack us? ”

"Now that Yuan Shao has lost his troops and his soldiers are tired, where does he still have the strength to beat us?" Zhang Ji sneered, "But Jianshou's consideration makes sense. If Yuan Shao doesn't fight, we will chase after the Northern Xinjiang Army, and it is very likely that he will be killed by the Northern Xinjiang Iron Cavalry. I think it's better to withdraw, anyway, the goal has been achieved. ”

"Our goal cannot be said to have been achieved, the Northern Xinjiang Army is still there, Yuan Shao is still there, although their strength has been lost, but the situation in Guanzhong has not improved because of this." Huang Fuhong shook his head worriedly and said, "Things are getting more and more troublesome. ”

"Trouble? I don't think it's troublesome at all. Wang Fang smiled lightly, "Although we failed to achieve the original plan to defeat the Northern Frontier Army. However, both the Northern Xinjiang Army and Yuan Shao were hit hard, and the situation in Guanzhong had been completely reversed. Jianshou, I think you're worrying too much. ”

………………

Dusk, Weiqiao.

The sun sets in the west and the flute is melodious.

Han Sui stationed at the head of the bridge, facing the little remnant sun, playing the transverse flute lightly, leisurely.

Zhao Yun Pegasus arrived, looked at Han Sui and said, "When will we see you again?" ”

Han Sui thought about it, sighed lightly, and said, "If Sheji can be stable, you and I should have a goodbye day." If the Han Dynasty is overthrown, I am afraid that you and I will see each other indefinitely. ”

"General Han is too pessimistic." Zhao Yun said with a smile, "In less than five years, you and I will be able to meet in Chang'an again." ”

Han Sui looked at him intently, then laughed and said, "Okay, I'll wait." However, in the next five years, I will not send troops to Guanzhong again. In this battle of Guanzhong, the Xiliang army suffered heavy losses and suffered a great loss of vitality. ”

Han Sui and Ma Teng led the 40,000 troops of Xiliang into the pass, plus 10,000 Qiang people, that is 50,000 troops. However, just after arriving in Guanzhong, 10,000 Qiang people first killed each other, and then they were surrounded and annihilated by the Northern Xinjiang Army in Nanshan Pavilion. Soon Ma Teng left the Xiliang army with his men and horses, and now Han Sui only had less than 20,000 people left, and the land was indeed a heavy loss.

"If I had known this was the case, I wouldn't have entered the customs." Han Sui looked up to the sky and sighed, extremely sad in his heart.

"General Han, Xiliang will get better slowly." Zhao Yun comforted in a low voice, "My eldest brother has promised to allocate enough disaster relief money and food to Xiliang every year. With this batch of money and grain, it can not only stabilize Xiliang, but also allow Xiliang people to be fed and clothed. ”

Han Sui nodded, looked at Zhao Yun, and said, "Zilong, after you go back, thank the general on my behalf." You tell him that as long as he can keep his promise, I will be able to ensure the stability of the western frontier and ensure that the territory of the Han Dynasty will not be lost. ”

Zhao Yun agreed again and again, and said, "Thank you General Han this time." The love of mutual help will be rewarded in northern Xinjiang. ”

Han Sui waved his hand apologetically and said, "Forget it, I didn't help you." I'm going to withdraw my troops anyway, but it's just a favor, don't worry too much. ”

Then he looked up at the Northern Xinjiang army coming rapidly from a distance, frowned and asked, "You want to withdraw from Guanzhong?" Don't attack Guanzhong? ”

Zhao Yun said with a smile: "Don't fight, I, like you, will also withdraw my troops back to Hedong." ”

Han Sui hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking, "Is it the general's order?" ”

"The eldest brother likes to be dangerous, and this time is the same, he has to eat a fat man in one bite, and he wants to destroy Dong Zhuo's old department, and he wants to occupy Guanzhong, and he has to fight Luoyang, but Dong Zhuo's old department is only half destroyed, and Guanzhong can't be defeated, let alone Luoyang." Zhao Yun said with some loss, "Tens of thousands of soldiers died in vain, this battle is painful, and it is a wretch." ”

Zhao Yun waved his arms a little excitedly, and said in a hoarse voice: "I just don't understand, the eldest brother has more than 100,000 soldiers, with great fanfare, and attacks from three directions, but he can't occupy Guanzhong, and the Northern Xinjiang Army is disgraced this time." ”

Han Sui listened quietly, bowing his head and saying nothing.

Zhao Yun calmed down his emotions and continued: "After this battle, I have the strength to kill Bashui, exterminate Zhang Ji and others, and then turn the horse's head to attack Yuan Shao and occupy Guanzhong, so the world can be determined." But the eldest brother just didn't agree, and he actually ordered me to withdraw to Hedong. Zhao Yun gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "I just don't understand, I want to ask him, ask him what he wants to do?" These more than 10,000 brothers who died in Guanzhong can't just die in vain. ”

Han Sui looked at Zhao Yun with a complicated expression, and after a long time, he asked in a low voice, "Have you said this to others?" ”

Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and immediately noticed the gaffe. I had just withdrawn from the battlefield, and I was angry for a while, and I didn't choose what to say.

Han Sui looked at Zhao Yun and said solemnly: "Zilong, I have known you since you were very young. There is also a friendship between you and me, and today I will solemnly say to you, if you don't change your temper, you and I will never see each other again. ”

Zhao Yun asked puzzledly, "Why did General Han say this?" ”

"Do you know why the Northern Xinjiang Army's more than 100,000 troops attacked in three ways, why they didn't occupy Guanzhong?" Han Sui walked to Zhao Yun's side and asked in a low voice, "Do you know why the general didn't concentrate his forces to attack Guanzhong, but instead sent heavy troops to attack Luoyang?" ”

Zhao Yun said: "The eldest brother is in a hurry, and he can't wait to calm the world in one day. The eldest brother has never lost a battle over the years, and I think he is a little too arrogant, thinking that no one else is his opponent and is not vulnerable at all. Results ......"

"You're wrong." Han Sui said, "This is a situation deliberately created by the general, and this attack on Guanzhong is simply a deception, a counterinsurgency battle that deceives the people of the world." ”

Zhao Yun looked at Han Sui in surprise and asked, "Scam?" ”

"The general's counterinsurgency move in Guanzhong this time can be described as huge, and the world knows it." Han Sui said slowly, "But the general still doesn't want to send troops to quell the rebellion at this time, why?" This time the general had to send troops, and why? ”

Without waiting for Zhao Yun to speak, Han Sui continued: "Zilong, you should know very well that although the general in Northern Xinjiang has taken great power because of the incident two years ago, the old ministers from Luoyang and Chang'an still have a lot of right to speak. In this year's dispatch, the general was pressured by the Son of Heaven and some courtiers to send troops. ”

Another reason is that the Son of Heaven is already fifteen years old, and according to the previous agreement, he will be in power in three years. And now in the imperial court, many old ministers from Luoyang and Chang'an are still alive. Once the Son of Heaven is in power, these old ministers will definitely be enabled. What does this mean for the generals and the northern frontier? The power of the great general may be deprived, the great plan of Zhongxing in northern Xinjiang may come to naught, and the Han society may be completely destroyed. ”

"In the past few years, the general has been reluctant to lead the army to quell the rebellion under various excuses, although there are many reasons, but this is definitely the main reason. Now he occupies the three prefectures of Hebei and the vast eastern Liaodong and northern grasslands, and has the advantages of Jizhou, and if he does not lead the army to quell the rebellion, not only will the crime be worse, but it is more likely to cause internal chaos, so he will have to quell the rebellion if he does not suppress the rebellion. ”

Han Sui sighed lightly and said, "Now you have seen the results of the general's counterinsurgency. It's not that he is unwilling to lead the army to quell the rebellion, but that someone is dragging behind. The failure of this counterinsurgency is not the responsibility of the generals, but the responsibility of the Son of Heaven and those old ministers. The general easily got rid of the pressure from the top and bottom of Hebei to put down the rebellion. ”

Zhao Yun woke up suddenly. Of course, he knew what Han Sui was referring to when someone was dragging his feet. Huangfu Hong's proposal to lead the army to defect and help the Northern Xinjiang Army occupy Guanzhong came from Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and other old ministers, but it turned out to be a scam, these people did not want to help the Northern Xinjiang Army occupy Guanzhong and defeat Yuan Shao, on the contrary, they wanted to unite Yuan Shao to defeat the Northern Xinjiang Army and subvert the current imperial court.

"Now everyone in the world knows the great determination of the general to quell the rebellion, the great determination of Zhongxing Sheji, and the great determination of the great general, and everyone knows that the general is the greatest loyal minister of the Han Dynasty." Han Sui said, "Now even if the Son of Heaven, the old ministers in the court, as well as Yuan Shao, Liu Biao and others think that the general is a traitor of the Han Dynasty, no one will doubt the general from top to bottom of the two capitals of Hebei Sanzhou, including the eldest princess." After this battle, the general will establish the absolute authority of the two capitals of the three states of Hebei. ”

"What the general needs is not the Son of Heaven, not the old ministers of the court, what the general needs is the reputation of absolute loyalty to the Han and the Son of Heaven, and what he needs is the trust of the people of the world. With fame and trust, he can gather the power of the world and quickly pacify the Zhongxing Han in the world. (To be continued.) )
