Chapter 523: Ambush
After an ominous premonition rose in Yuan Chang's heart, he drove his army back to Beijing. Yuan Chang and 10,000 soldiers of the independent division rushed for more than a day, and the army had already arrived in Zhuoxian County. When Yuan Chang arrived in Zhuoxian County, the sun had already set, and originally, Yuan Chang planned to let the army be stationed in Zhuoxian County to rest. Although it is said that 10,000 soldiers are cavalry, but he drove more than 100 miles in a day, and Guo Jia's body was a little weak, so rushing was a bit of a burden on him.
However, after Yuan Chang's army entered Zhuoxian County, the soldiers of the Independent Intelligence Brigade sent the information conveyed by Diao Xiu'er to Yuan Chang, and Yuan Chang suddenly felt a threat and pressure.
"Fengxiao, now that there is a change in Beijing, I will immediately lead the army to Beijing City. How about letting Hong Fei guard you, and then follow?"
"Lord, subordinates should follow left and right, how can there be a reason to act alone, and I hope that the lord will not mention it again. ”
Yuan Chang actually knew that Guo Jia would insist on following him, so he would ask about it, and in fact, as Yuan Chang expected, Guo Jia's expression was extremely determined. In this regard, Yuan Chang is also helpless. Perhaps, this is the essence of whether a person is loyal or not. Like Guo Jia, he knew that the journey was difficult and he was unwell, but he still chose to continue to follow, and if he had changed some subordinates who were not so loyal, he might have agreed at this moment.
"Since you are so insistent on Fengxiao, I won't persuade you more. However, you have to remember that if you feel unwell, you must speak up early, and don't be reckless. ”
"Thank you for your care, Jiazi is provincial. ”
Dian Wei gagged on the side, and shouted: "Lord, you are also eccentric, you know that you care about the military advisor, and you don't ask me if I need to rest." ”
Yuan Chang rolled his eyes and said, "Okay." Hong Fei, since you want to rest, then stay in Zhuo County for three or five days. ”
"Hehe, lord, I'm just kidding, you have a lot of adults, don't take it seriously. Dian Wei smiled shyly. Said flatteringly: "This time I went to Fanyang County, I didn't do anything, and now there is a war to fight in Beijing, how can I lag behind." ”
Guo Jia paused and asked, "Lord, what happened in Beijing?"
Yuan Chang looked up at the night sky and said in a deep voice: "Count it out, it's also our old opponent." He was the person behind the group that wanted to kill Lu Bu and replace him last time. This time they seem to be planning to attack me, and besides, Bong-hyo. Zilong, Hong Fei, and the others are also within the enemy's target. As for Sister Ling, Fengxiao, you can rest assured that Miss Xiu'er has already let her stay with Xi'er and them, and there are soldiers to protect her at all times, so nothing will happen in the future. ”
Regarding the safety of his group, Yuan Chang was not very worried. The elite soldiers under his command are not vegetarians, if the enemy dares to appear. He will naturally let the other party know that he is powerful. The main problem is that these guys are hiding behind the scenes. There is no trace of it, it is extremely mysterious, and it makes people feel troubled. Moreover, they regarded Lu Bu as a rebel, and the reason why they wanted to attack themselves this time was because Lu Bu had contact with him in Bohai County before. Let the other party think that he is a member of Lu Bu's side. In this way, Yuan Chang was actually more worried about Lu Bu's safety, after all, Lu Bu was the main target of the other party, and the situation would be even more dangerous.
After Guo Jia listened to Yuan Chang's words, he immediately said, "My lord." Now that the other party has started to do it, he thinks he is sure enough. In this way, the safety of the lord is not too dangerous, but Wen Hou, who they mistakenly regard as the main target, is in an even more dangerous situation. ”
"What Feng Xiao said is very true, and this is also the place where I am worried. Yuan Chang nodded and said with a solemn expression. "In this way, it is necessary to strengthen the guards around Wen Hou. ”
crossed over, saw Lu Bu's character, and knew that Lu Bu was not the kind of character written in the history books, Yuan Chang's relationship with Lu Bu now can be regarded as a superior and a friend, and there is a relationship between a quasi-father-in-law and a quasi-son-in-law. No matter what aspect it is, Yuan Chang didn't want Lu Bu to have an accident. In fact, Yuan Chang had the idea of wanting Lu Bu to return to Beijing City for a moment. However, the first thing is to let Lu Bu come back, which is not in line with the strategic policy that Yuan Chang has already formulated. Once Lu Bu is allowed to come back, then the situation in Xuzhou and Yanzhou will inevitably change, and at that time, there may be major changes in history, which is a situation that Yuan Chang does not want to see; this one reason is still secondary, mainly because Yuan Chang understands Lu Bu's character, and with Lu Bu's arrogance, he will definitely not choose to retreat, but will fearlessly face the enemy, which is the reason for Yuan Chang's headache.
Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Hao Meng, Cao Xing and others are all genuine, and they are all loyal to Lu Bu, with the protection of these people, it is not so easy for the enemy to assassinate Lu Bu. I am worried that there are many masters on the other side, such as the impostor who replaced Lu Bu in the past, and the strength is only a line between Lu Bu and Lu Bu, who knows how many subordinates of such strength the other party has?
"It's a pity that I don't have enough manpower, otherwise, if I send ten, eight strong generals with strength like Hong Fei and Zilong to follow Wen Hou, how can the other party please me. ”
It's a pity for Yuan Chang to think about it, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are now Liu Bei's diehard lackeys, and they can't be recruited if they think about it; several fierce generals of the Xiahou family and the Cao family are also Cao Cao's diehard lackeys, and there is also no hope; in fact, the strength of Wen Chou and Yan Liang is also good, and they are also extremely strong in real history, and there are many reasons why they were killed by Guan Yu so quickly. However, Wen Chou and Yan Liang also seem to be extremely loyal to Yuan Shao, and it is unlikely that they will dig into the wall. Moreover, once these two guys are dug up, Yuan Shao may fight him to the death because of this, and the gains outweigh the losses. In this way, we can only find those who have no owners at present, such as Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, Gan Ning and other fierce generals.
In addition to the generals, it is also imperative to recruit strategists.
Now he is also Guo Jia a strategist, if he dominates a state, it will naturally be no problem. However, if you want to dominate the world, you can't rely on Guo Jia alone; even if Guo Jia has this ability, he will die of exhaustion, just like Zhuge Liang, he is actually tired to death. In history, Cao Cao was called wealthy, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Jia Xu, etc., and then Sima Yi, Zhong Hui, Chen Qun and so on. There are strategists in all aspects, so that Cao Wei can lay such a solid foundation, and only then can there be the foundation for the Sima family to plot the fruits of Cao Wei's victory.
Therefore, both the recruitment of strategists and generals must be carried out, and Yuan Chang will start this action after preparing to return to Beijing City this time.
But. The current question is, whether to send someone to support Lu Bu, and if so, who to send? Perhaps because of Lu Bu's identity, Yuan Chang only felt that his brain was a little confused, and his heart was a little uncertain. However, fortunately, he has Guo Jia by his side, so he can discuss it.
Guo Jia listened to Yuan Chang's words. He smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically: "Lord, in your opinion, if you march and fight, what is Wen Hou's ability?"
"In this regard, there are only a few people who can match Wenhou!"
"Since the lords think so. Then even if they send Ziyi, Zilong, or Hong Fei to support Wen Hou, what good will it be?" Guo Jia's analysis made Yuan Chang only feel bright. Seems to be somewhat understood. In this way, it is not of much use to send heroic generals on the battlefield, but it is a secret operation, which is impossible to guard. Who can always be vigilant, and if the enemy strikes at you while you are asleep, how can you defend against it? If the lord really wants to send men to guard the Marquis Wen, he should send men from this side. ”
After listening to Guo Jia's analysis, Yuan Chang immediately understood who he should send. According to Guo Jia, in addition to Ye Gucheng, the West Gate blows snow. Who else is more suitable than them? It's just that several of them were sent by him to South Vietnam to find Champa rice, and even if he sent someone to send them to Lu Bu now, he didn't know if it would be too late, and if the other party was about to do it, what would he do? However, no matter what, Lu Bu still had to send people there. There is also Duan Tianya, there are a few of them, and they don't know how to learn the arts, if a few of them return, Yuan Chang's subordinates can use more people.
Immediately, Yuan Chang found the soldiers of the Independent Intelligence Brigade in Zhuoxian County and instructed: "Send someone to the south immediately, and send the letter from Benzhou Mu to Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue, so that after they receive the letter, they will immediately go to Lu Wenhou to secretly protect it, without delay!"
"Subordinates obey!"
Lu Bu has finished the arrangement here, as for whether he can catch up, Yuan Chang can only resign himself to fate, hoping that the other party will not start yet. At this moment, the matter of Beijing City is the top priority, if this threat is not resolved, he will not be able to sleep peacefully in the future.
After ordering the army to rest on the spot for half an hour, Yuan Chang directly let the army continue its journey. Although he knew that the soldiers were tired, it was a critical moment, and Yuan Chang didn't care if the soldiers were tired.
"Soldiers, there are enemies eyeing the city of Beijing now, and our families are in danger at all times. Therefore, for the sake of our family, we can only let everyone work hard, and when the enemy is repulsed, the Honshu Mu will definitely let you rest for a few days!"
"Protect your family and be fearless!"
"Good!"
Seeing that the morale of the soldiers had been boosted, Yuan Chang nodded with satisfaction, and directly waved his hand, and the army charged towards Beijing City with great momentum. Zhuoxian County was one hundred and forty miles away from the city of Beijing, and if the cavalry were to rush at full speed, they could reach it in less than two hours. However, in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, Yuan Chang naturally would not let the soldiers rush so hard, and the speed was kept at forty miles per hour, which could not only ensure the speed of the march, but also maintain sufficient combat effectiveness.
The army marched all the way, rushing for more than an hour, and when passing through Liangxiang City, Yuan Chang did not enter the city to rest, and galloped directly from Liangxiang City. Two hours later, Yuan Chang and his army arrived at Wangzuo Village, which was under the jurisdiction of Liangxiang City, and after Wangzuo Village, it only took another hour or so to reach the city of Beijing. After Wangzuo Village, there is Changxin Village, these two villages are the only villages from Liangxiang to Beijing, and the population of the village is only a few dozen households. Of course, these are not the point, the point is that between Wangzuo Village and Changxin Village, there is a forest, which is the so-called forest and does not enter, because the enemy's ambush is usually chosen between the mountains and forests.
"Stop!"
"Lord, I feel that something is wrong!"
While Yuan Chang ordered the army to stop advancing, Dian Wei also frowned and patted his horse and walked to Yuan Chang's side and said.
"I've noticed that the woods seem to be unusually quiet, and there's a faint sense of murder. It seems that our old adversary is well prepared. Yuan Chang said with a frown, in his senses, the enemy who appeared here seemed to be quite not weak. In this way, Yuan Chang was a little worried, if the enemy in Beijing was so strong, even if Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Yu Ban and others were guarded, would they be able to resist it? It seems that the enemy here should be dealt with as soon as possible and rushed to Beijing to support.
"Hey, lord, since you can still feel the murderous aura of the enemy? Dian Wei looked at Yuan Chang with a look of surprise, as if he was extremely puzzled that Yuan Chang had a sharper intuition than him.
"The enemy's target is me, this time, it seems that I can't hide it, let you see how powerful I am!" Yuan Chang smiled slightly, with a confident smile on his face. Who said that Yuan Chang didn't have any strength, but this guy has been hiding all the time, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, this time he can't be prevented by Dian Wei alone, and Yuan Chang also knows that it's time to show his strength.
Dian Wei still looked at Yuan Chang with some surprise, Yuan Chang didn't look like a strong man no matter how he looked, what was going on?
Yuan Chang didn't explain to Dian Wei, but looked at the woods in front of him, and shouted loudly: "The people in the woods, the Benzhou pastor has already come, why do you hide your head and show your tail, don't you show up quickly!"
As Yuan Chang's voice fell, there was a sound of "bang", and a group of people really appeared in the woods, and looking at their number, it seemed that there were only more than fifty people. Did the other party think that with these more than 50 people, they could defeat the elite cavalry of 10,000 cavalry under Yuan Chang's command? Of course, Yuan Chang understood that the other party might really have such strength. Moreover, the other party does not want to kill all these 10,000 elites, as long as Yuan Chang, Guo Jia, Dian Wei and a few others are killed, the task will be completed. With the strength of the other party, it is possible to do it.
There were more than 50 people on the other side, standing in four rows at a very high level. Except for the six people at the front, whose faces were exposed, the rest of the people were covered with robes and hats.
"Yuan Chang, it seems that you can become a Youzhou pastor. One of the six people in the lead looked at Yuan Chang and said as if he was complimenting. "However, since you have chosen to follow Lu Bu, a rebel, no matter how capable you are, there is only one way to die. If you choose to surrender to us, you may be spared your life and you may be put on the side. ”
"Haha, a group of arrogant and hidden people, how dare they speak out in front of the Honshu pastor. The state pastor can also give you a chance, if you surrender to the state pastor, the state pastor can leave you a whole corpse. ”
"Arrogance, since you don't know whether you live or die, it will be fulfilled by you. The guards obey the order, kill!" (To be continued.) )
