In August of the first year of Zhongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Huangfu Song, the general of the left chariot cavalry, ordered the Yellow Turban Army to be suppressed, and Sun Jian was ordered to be the vanguard, and Cao Cao was the side response, and the first crusade against Zhang Jiao was made. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThe original intention was to make Sun Jian and Cao Cao cooperate with each other to entangle Zhang Jiao in the east of the boundary bridge, and Huangfu Song led his troops north to attack the west of the boundary bridge and cut off Zhang Jiao's back road.

But he didn't want the demon Zhang Jiao to get the news, and when he saw Huangfu Song marching into Quzhou, he started to do it. He blocked the area around the boundary bridge for hundreds of miles with white mist, and heavy snow fell all over the sky, turning life into three nines, turning the heat into a cold winter.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Jiao ordered his general Zhang Bai to take advantage of the fog to sneak attack Cao Cao and Sun Jian, break through the two large camps of the official army overnight, kill thousands of captured officers and soldiers, and forced Sun Jian and Cao Cao to flee with only hundreds of horsemen and run to Huangfu Song to rescue.

In fact, Huangfu Song was shocked and sent people to review the situation in the area of Jieqiao, and finally learned the news: the weather in the area of Jieqiao was cold, the snow was everywhere, and the earth was muddy. Zhang Jiao had already left Jieqiao and returned to the west, and set up camp in Guangzong, trying to rely on Guangzong's mutual horns to resist the suppression of the official army.

“…… Well, that's about it. Gongwei, I forgot to give you a wake-up call, so that you all underestimated the skills of demons like Zhang Jiao, and you had such a failure. For this, I apologize to you on behalf of Gongwei! Faced with the news reported by the spies, Huangfu Song understood what a strange situation Sun Jian and Cao Cao had encountered.

He understood that this was because of Zhang Jiao's approach, so he did not blame Sun Jian and Cao Cao, but put on a high-profile appearance, and Haosheng comforted them and relieved the shame in their hearts a little.

Of course, that's what he said.

Although Huang Fu Song mentioned Zhu Jun in his words, with Zhu Jun's official position and qualifications far above them, neither Cao Cao nor Sun Jian dared to take Huang Fu Song's words seriously, and really blamed Zhu Jun's head. For Huangfu Song's appeasement, Cao Cao and Sun Jian naturally responded modestly, so much so that they didn't dare.

This defeat, of course, the two of them made a mess, but when it comes to the fundamentals.

They didn't start from the rebel army, they led the troops of the Han Dynasty itself, and they couldn't be regarded as losing their roots. Speaking of the loss of generals, Cao Cao and Sun Jian also had nothing to lose.

Several of Sun Jian's retainers were there, and Susan, who Cao Cao brought with him, was also good. As for Zhu Xinpei, the only one who was killed by Zhang Jiaojun, Cao Cao said that it was just a guard he hired and received a dowry. Now that he has died because his skills are not as good as others, Cao Cao does not have much sadness in his heart, and the most he can do is to donate a sum of money to the White Horse Temple as a consolation after Zhu Xinpei's death. This is nothing to Cao Cao's.

As a descendant of Cao Teng, Cao Cao's family background is still relatively rich. Therefore, he is not short of money for people like Zhu Xinpei. Since life can be bought, Zhu Xinpei has not been with Cao Cao for a long time, and the relationship between the two is naturally a little low. Therefore, Cao Cao didn't care.

At that moment, everyone whispered for a while under the appeasement of Huangfu Song, and then talked about Zhang Jiao's current situation.

“…… Zhang Jiao, he wants to resist to the end. This is the general opinion of everyone about Zhang Jiao's layout.

After all, with the end of the strangulation war in the Central Plains and the defeat of Zhang Bao and others, the Yellow Turban Army in the Central Plains was pacified. Now the largest part of the Yellow Turban Army is the one led by Zhang Jiao, which is entrenched in Jizhou. It's just that although the army of this force is huge, the area of the territory it occupies is too small, and there is not even a county, and in terms of strategy, it is impossible to escape defeat.

The general opinion among everyone is that Zhang Jiao is just dying. It may take time to destroy him, but his defeat will not change anything.

"No, I don't think it's that simple." Li Qin has different opinions on the opinions of the people. Because his father-in-law was by his side, Li Qin felt that he also had some confidence, so he opened his mouth to refute everyone's cognition.

"Why?" Li Qin has different opinions, and Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun both value it very much. After all, they had all been in contact with Li Qin, knew Li Qin's ability, and admired his wit. Therefore, after Li Qin opened his mouth, the two did not directly reprimand Li Qin for exceeding his rules, but looked at him with an expectant expression, hoping to get his explanation.

Because of the attitude of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, Cao Cao and Sun Jian, the two generals of the defeated army, did not say much. Both they and their men focused their attention on Li Qin. People who didn't know Li Qin were naturally surprised by Li Qin's youth and guessed his identity. Susan, who knew Li Qin, was surprised by Li Qin's status in this plot character.

"This guy...... As a newcomer, he can get such treatment, but he has some ability. Susan looked at Li Qin, and was a little annoyed in her heart: "He has achieved such a momentum, but he doesn't explain it to me, this guy's heart is too deep." Not to be underestimated! Perhaps, I should think about how to win him over. Susan muttered to herself.

What others think, Li Qin doesn't know. Although he felt the heat of those glances cast on him, Li Qin didn't take it to heart after all. He knows what's big and what he should be focusing on.

At that moment, he coughed lightly and spoke: "The Yellow Turban Army in Zhang Jiao's hands is the last and strongest force in the Yellow Turban Army. But as the official army of the Han Dynasty, how can we not be the last strongest mobile force in the imperial court? Now we are fighting Zhang Jiao here. If we win, it will naturally be peaceful in the world, and the sea will be clear and the river will be clear; But if we lose, what will become of the world? This...... Have you thought about it? Although the imperial capital of Luoyang still has troops, can His Majesty be willing to send troops? Your Majesty still spares his life after all. ”

"So ......" After hearing Li Qin's words, everyone couldn't help but be shocked.

All of a sudden, they also saw the subtlety of the current situation. Just as Li Qin said, if the official army wins this battle, the power of the Yellow Turban Army will completely disappear, and it will not be able to endanger the world again no matter what. But if something goes wrong and the official army fails, then at least for half a year, the imperial court will not be able to organize a large army to crusade against the Yellow Turban thieves again - because all the mobile forces in the central Han Dynasty are here.

"So, we must win this battle!" Li Qin pointed out the importance of the next battle, and both Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun realized that their side had to win.

Although the Han Dynasty is large, for the entire central court, they have no possibility of retreating.

"In short, we have to hold on and not lose." At this moment, everyone here achieved the same understanding.
