Chapter 36: Whereabouts Revealed

Zhang Yan was in a stalemate, in a dilemma.

Chong Guanyi angrily led the army to tackle the problem, in order to get out of this evil anger that was stuck in his heart, that is, he wanted to retrieve Zhang Niujiao's corpse.

There is no reason to talk about it, Yuan Shao occupies the righteousness, and when he led the army to besiege the revolving gate, he realized that his anger at the crown made Zhang Niujiao's corpse may never be recovered.

He is alone against this world.

What is the world, the world is the world composed of the imperial court and the princes and the people under their leadership, but he led the army to attack the key problems, which made him and all these enemies.

Will he be able to turn back? He didn't know.

Because Zhang Yan didn't think about how to turn back at all, since he decided to poke a hole in the world, what else did he want to do? It's nothing more than fighting, begging, everyone come! Lao Tzu's Black Mountain General Zhang Yanquan followed.

In June, Zhang Yan's soldiers came to the city of Luoyang, and the military camps surrounded the entire Luoyang, and the camps were directly connected to the foot of the mountain...... There is no one in the world who can mobilize such a powerful force except him.

"Now, it's just one step away." Zhang Yan said to the generals beside him: "There is only one step left, capture Luoyang, destroy the Yuan family, retreat to Jizhou, and worship the court as a minister...... No matter which of us dies here, the living must remember to finish the rest and keep the people of Montenegro at peace. ”

The man with the bandit name Lei Gong laughed loudly: "General, don't say so much, attacking the city and pulling out the village, I don't think it will be difficult to see Luoyang, it's nothing more than attacking the city, you order, I Lei Gong will be the pioneer for you!" ”

Zhang Yan waved his hand, pointed to the head of the city and said, "No, let's not storm the city, just surround it." ”

"At night, Yang Feng feinted at the west gate, Lei Gong, and you led light troops to climb up to the city from the east gate and blend into the city." Zhang Yan chuckled and stared at the city in the distance and said, "Tomorrow, I will feint to attack the east gate and blend in from the west gate." The day after tomorrow, they made a feint to attack the north gate and blended in from the south gate. On the night of three days later, attack from inside and outside the city at the same time, and attack the four gates, as long as you can open a gate from the inside, Luoyang City will be captured. ”

All the generals are men who have been on the verge of life and death all year round, and when they heard this extraordinarily risky plan, they not only did not refuse, but were very enthusiastic, and burst into a burst of passionate applause.

But Zhang Yan was far from being as relaxed as he showed on his face, and when everyone dispersed, he left Zhou Cang alone and said, "Zhou Qu is handsome...... Ma Yue is coming. ”

"Where is he?" Zhou Cang glanced left and right, a little nervous and worried that others would hear this name, so he came to Zhang Yan's side and said, "He must be stopped, otherwise Luoyang City will not be able to attack." ”

Zhang Yan glanced at Zhou Cang, pointed to the southwest and said: "There was a rout in the southwest this morning, and it was reported that Ma Yue broke through Lu Hun City three days ago and captured Lu Hun Pass, with countless soldiers and armor, and thousands of big armor...... I am afraid that the army will lose its heart, and I dare not explain it to the generals. ”

"Don't worry, general, a certain family knows." Zhou Cang didn't pretend to be easy, he didn't fight Ma Yue once or twice, whether it was the Jizhou battlefield or the Central Plains battlefield, he didn't win. Even every time I lost very embarrassed. The name Ma Yue has a shadow lingering in the bottom of almost all the Yellow Turban Army. Zhou Cang pondered for a moment, took a deep breath and said: "General, Ma Yue never marches alone, his generals are also brave and brave, a certain family will go to Luhun Pass with Yuan Shao and Guo Daxian tonight, if you meet Ma Yue's soldiers and horses along the way, you will attack it first, if Ma Yue does not march, a certain family will block him in the pass, how about it?" ”

"This is very good, Qu Shuai must remember, if you are invincible, you will withdraw, don't fight with it." Zhang Yan's face was full of sincerity, if it weren't for the siege of Luoyang, he needed to preside over the overall situation...... God knows how much he wants to meet Ma Yue in person! Zhang Yan put his arm on Zhou Cang's strong and powerful shoulder, and said calmly: "Qu Shuai, take care." ”

Only then did Zhou Cang pull his cheeks with difficulty and smile, pointing in all directions and saying, "General, now that my Black Mountain Department is the only spark left by the Great Sage and Good Master, you really need to take care!" The emperor issued an edict ordering soldiers and horses from all directions to enter Beijing, and those princes are driving troops to this side. Ma Yue is only the first, but he is definitely not the last, those old enemies of the great sages and good teachers are coming! ”

When it came to the great sage and good teacher, Zhang Yan didn't have any expression, but suddenly he remembered the general who was beheaded by Ma Yue, his face was sad, and he gritted his teeth and nodded heavily.

"General, if the big thing doesn't work, the general doesn't have to wait for a certain family to return to the army, but he can lead his troops to retreat." Zhou Cang's face was very relaxed when he said this, and he said very seriously to the east in his words: "The remnants of the Yellow Turban in the Land of Qingxu are not a climate, and with the prestige of the general, gathering Jizhou Black Mountain and Qingxu Yellow Turban may not be impossible to achieve a big deal!" I also hope that the general will not be rash. ”

"Don't worry, Feiyan understands!"

Zhou Cang nodded again, glanced at Zhang Yan deeply, slammed his fist on Zhang Yan's shoulder, turned around and walked out of the big tent without looking back.

Straightening up the soldiers and horses, waving the flag and shouting, that night, more than 10,000 Black Mountain foot soldiers rushed towards the winding woodland in the southwest.

……

Attacking Luhun Pass was originally a suspicious plan by Ma Yue, intended to confuse Zhang Yan and make him divide his troops. As early as the second day after the capture of Chengguan, Ma Yue withdrew from Luhun Pass, hid a large amount of baggage in the mountains and forests on the east bank of Yichuan, and ordered the armored soldiers to go straight to Yangrenju with only the grain and grass needed for six days.

Yangren City is forty miles away from Liang County, and it is the burial place of Sun Jian's general Zu Mao in history, but now it is just an ordinary city. Ma Yue did not plan to attack this city again, but took advantage of the night to speed around the Yangren, all the way east along the Songshan Mountain to advance towards Yuyuan Pass.

In other words, Ma Yue is still outside the eight passes of Luoyang, and has not yet entered the hinterland of Luoyang.

Everything was carried out in an orderly manner according to Ma Yue's plan.

On the morning of the fourth day of the capture of Luhun Pass, Ma Yue led his troops to hide in Songshan Mountain to rest. On these days, sunset is the only time and sunrise stops. Black and white were reversed, and Rao was an armored sergeant, and it was difficult to withstand it.

The neighboring Yuyuan Pass Ma Yue slowed down the speed of the army, and the soldiers led the horses to walk in the woodland at the foot of Song Mountain all day long, and now they only travel 20 miles a day. More time is spent resting and hunting in the mountains.

Storming the Yuanyuan Pass, he needs his soldiers to maintain the best physique. Because he knew that the baggage of the Black Mountain Army was not in Hou Shiwu north of Yuyuan Pass, but in Yanshi City north of Hou.

Luoyang, there is no place to store grain and grass.

Then, on the morning of the fifth day, a group of uninvited guests were welcomed in the mountain forest at the foot of Songshan Mountain, a small force of several hundred members of the Black Mountain Army, a scout team fully equipped with bows and arrows.

At first, it was just a small team that found messy human footsteps in the mountains and forests, and the Montenegrin warriors who ran in the Taihang Mountains all the year round were the best hunters in Jizhou, and they had been in the Black Mountain for nearly ten years, relying on wild beasts to survive all day long, and they had already honed their best hunting and hiding skills.

Without the knowledge of Ma Yue's armored army, the scouts of the Black Mountain Army touched the trees that were only a thousand paces away from their camp, and carefully observed this unmarked ironclad army.

It's a coincidence and a coincidence.

Unaware that everything about them was seen through by the hunters hidden in the forest, the relaxed armored army ran out of the mountains and forests with a heart beating rapidly with fear, and returned everything to the guards of Taigu Pass, Digen, and Sun Qing, the guards of Yuyuan Pass.

At the moment, the guard of Yuyuan Pass ordered Sun to lightly order the little handsome Wang to be strictly guarded to surround the pass, and gallop to Taigu Pass on a galloping horse.

Climbed over a hill, bypassed Hou's Wu, crossed Yishui, galloped seventy miles a day and finally arrived at Taigu Pass at night.

"Lao Tzu is Sun Qing, looking for Yu Huzi to discuss important matters, open the door quickly!" Under Taigu Pass, Sun Qing shouted like this. In fact, he didn't have much friendship with Yu Yigen, but he was only a sharp in Jizhou Black Mountain in Zhang Yan's career, and even fought side by side with General Rengong. As for Yu Yigen, he was just a small bandit in the Changshan area back then, and in the eyes of his grandson, he was not a big man.

After several shouts, the guards at the head of the city were still hesitating, which made him very angry, and immediately jumped off his horse and lifted a big stone from the side and smashed it on the city gate, pointing at the head of the city and shouting: "Tell the Yuhu to come out to see me!" Just go! ”

The guards didn't know what to do, so they had to respond humbly, and ran to the guard's residence in the city to wake up Yu Digen, who was sleeping with Xinna's concubine. Yu Yigen was woken up and looked unkind, and when he heard that Sun Qing was coming, he ran out of the door in a hurry, and he didn't even have time to tie his robes tightly and stepped on the horses and ran all the way to the city.

Climbing the female wall, Yu Yigen saw that Sun Qing was really under the city, and hurriedly ordered the guards to open the door, he couldn't afford to provoke a big man like Sun Qing!

The city gate slowly opened, and Yu Yigen stood inside wearing a robe and bare chest, smiling with a smile on his face, arching his hands and asking, "Sun Shuai, why did you come to my brother's side?" ”

"Fuck, it's burning eyebrows!" Sun Qing waited under the city for a long time, the black light blind fire had already held back his anger, and now when he saw that Yu Yigen was so virtuous and sleepy-eyed, he kicked him on the heel, reached out and lifted Yu Yigen's neck and walked to the pass, saying as he walked: "You have received the news, Ma Yue's armored army has touched the foot of Montenegro!" Your life is going to be gone, and you still have time to sleep? ”

Sun Qing knew that Ma Yue had an iron cavalry covered with armor in the whole army, and he had broken the Han military academy under Tongguan and Chun Yuqiong. The name of a man, the shadow of a tree, when he hears this name, he must not be careless.

It was precisely because of this that he galloped all the way for seventy miles.

"Ouch, Sun Shuai lightly, Sun Shuai lightly!" Yu Yigen was dragged away in front of the brothers in front of his brothers, and he felt that his face was dull, and he took a few steps before he reacted, and suddenly shook off Sun Qing's hand and widened his eyes and asked: "Sun Shuai is saying that the soldiers and horses drilled in the forest are the soldiers and horses of Meiyang Houmayue?" ”

"!" Sun Qing didn't say much to Yu Yigen, pointed to his nose and scolded: "You put on the armor for Lao Tzu now, and take your people to the Songshan forest to set up an ambush, I will copy from the east this morning, and I must not teach Ma Yue to come out of the mountains and forests." ”

Sun Qing put one hand on his chest and the other on his chin, frowned, and said: "If it is in the mountains and forests, our Black Mountain Army may not be his opponent, but if we want him to go out to the flat land, we will not have to fight." Even if it is two passes, I am afraid that it will be broken. Hear me! Straighten out the soldiers and horses and set up an ambush for Lao Tzu! ”
