Episode 0181: Cage Slaughter Tiger
Peng Yu Department.
The Yellow Turban Army in Wuguan was indeed as Guo Jia expected, and had already retreated to Wuguan before Peng Yu arrived, so that Yuan Shao, who was besieged in Wuling, finally broke out and joined Peng Yu's army.
Yuan Shao led more than 10,000 soldiers to the expedition, and only more than 2,000 soldiers returned in embarrassment, and Yuan Shao himself was even more miserable, losing a lot of weight, which made Peng Yu a little unhappy in his heart, but fortunately, Yuan Shao returned safely, and the result was good.
It's just that when he returned to Hangu, Peng Yu intended to communicate with Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shao didn't want to deal with him on the grounds of poor health.
After two times in a row, Peng Yu was also a little angry, after all, he didn't lead the army to come, this Yuan Shao was afraid that he would have already died in Wuling, and such a defeated general would dare to treat himself with a face, so Peng Yu no longer bothered with Yuan Shao.
Peng Yu's unhappiness, Lu Bu saw it in his eyes, remembered it in his heart, and immediately took over Yuan Shao's more than 2,000 defeated troops, Yuan Shao was thunderous but helpless, but he was even more resentful of Peng Yu in his heart, when Peng Yu and his party arrived in Hangu, Yuan Shao immediately returned to Luoyang in the name of accusing His Majesty, and did not want to stay with Peng Yu for a day.
Because of this, the two had a great disagreement on the rescue, and they also regretted the wrong choice they made in the future, and even regretted it for life.
Zhang Miao, Cao Cao.
Before Zhang Liang's Hanoi army finally came to Huguan, Zhang Miao's troops finally couldn't resist it, and Zhang Miao could only abandon Huguan and lead his troops to Yecheng, hoping to fight Cao Cao.
Fortunately, Zhang Miao has been dragging on Huguan for enough time, Cao Cao and Xun You finally attacked Yecheng, although the battle in Yecheng has not stopped, but Yecheng is already Cao Cao's bag.
By the time Zhang Miao's troops arrived at Yecheng, Cao Cao's troops had already completely controlled Yecheng.
When Peng Yu and Cao Cao's good news returned to the court, Liu Honglong's face was naturally happy, and he said yes in a loud voice, and immediately worshiped Cao Cao to lead Yecheng Taishou! As for Peng Yu, because after Yuan Shao returned to Luoyang, he slandered the Yuan family of the third prince of the fourth world, and Peng Yu did not even give a reward.
After the news came back, Peng Yu also felt helpless that he had inadvertently offended the leader of the clan, the Yuan family, but he felt extremely angry and contemptuous of Yuan Shao's actions, and immediately let Jia Xu take action, allowing himself to temporarily take the Hangu Pass guard, cutting off Yuan Shao's chance to return to Hangu again.
Before Peng Yu could come up with a good idea to punish Yuan Shao and resolve this contradiction between the Yuan family, an urgent military situation suddenly came from Luoyang! This military situation not only temporarily covered up the contradictions between Peng Yu and Yuan Shao, but also covered up all the contradictions between the civil ministers and military generals, and even the open and secret battles between the queen mother and the queen were also covered up at the same time!
This military situation was extremely shocking, and everyone in the Eastern Han Dynasty was a little panicked, and they didn't know what to do.
When Dong Chong led 30,000 troops to attack Puyang, he was Li Damu, Guan Hai, Han Zhong, Cheng Yuanzhi, Huang Shao, five troops totaling 30,000 troops frantically counterattacked, Dong Chongjun suffered a head-on attack, difficult to resist, when the two armies were stalemate, Zheng Gu and Sun Zhong landed from Guandu and suddenly attacked, and cut off Dong Chongjun in one fell swoop.
At this time, Zhang Bao gave an order, the Yellow Turban Puyang army poured out, Dong Chongjun had nowhere to go, no way to retreat, no danger to defend, within a few days Dong Chong's 30,000 troops were slaughtered by Zhang Bao, Dong Chong's whereabouts are unknown, and Dong Chong's army was wiped out!
When Peng Yu heard the news of Dong Chong's annihilation, he almost fell to the ground, not to mention the ministers in the court, they all beat their chests and cried bitterly, and Liu Hong was even more angry and fell ill.
Thirty thousand troops! A whole army of 30,000!
The 30,000 troops in the Tiger Prison Pass are almost all the troops that the Han can come up with, and these soldiers are all experienced in a hundred battles, they are veterans of a hundred battles, and they are the elite of the elite, so the army was annihilated within a few days!
How did this give the Han time to form another strong army to resist the Yellow Turban army?
What's even more terrifying is that after Dong Chong's army was annihilated, it directly affected the situation of the entire Han Dynasty, Puyang was not down, Guandu was captured, and the Yellow Turban Army's naval army actually had 20,000 people, so that Cao Cao's occupation of Yecheng is a lonely city, once the white horse is taken by the Yellow Turban, Cao Cao's department will inevitably be unable to escape, there is no way to go, and he will definitely die.
Once Cao Cao's department is destroyed, Meng Jin will inevitably be empty, and at that time, the Yellow Turban will go down the river to attack Meng Jin, and the big man will have no power to return to the sky.
Is the Tiger Prison going to be lost? Is Dahan going to be finished? Is the situation irretrievable?
Just when everyone in the Eastern Han Dynasty was at a loss, and even Peng Yu was a little dizzy, a person stood up and saved the entire Han Dynasty with a few words, who is this person?
Of course, it is Jia Xu Jia Wenhe, who died in one word and prospered the country in one word!
When Dong Zhong was hit head-on, Jia Xu immediately went to Peng's mansion and had a conversation with Peng Bo.
Of course, Peng Bo knew that Jia Xu was Yu'er's most important strategist, and he listened to Jia Xu's analysis in all aspects, so he didn't want to immediately convene Wang Yun, Cai Yong and other civil and military ministers to discuss.
Of course, this strategy that Jia Xu came up with is all due to Peng Yu, Jia Xu only cares about the strategy, and does not want to be too ostentatious, Peng Bo can only settle this strategy on Peng Yu.
Deyang Hall.
Liu Hong's face was pale, restless, and the monarchs and ministers were all in a mess, without the slightest good strategy to break the enemy.
When Liu Hong heard that Wang Yun, Peng Bo, Cai Yong and others asked to see him, he immediately remembered that these loyal ministers and righteous men were people with excellent strategies, and shouted loudly, "Spread, pass quickly!" ”
Without waiting for Wang Yun and the others to greet him, Liu Hong hurriedly asked, "Wang Aiqing, is there a good way to teach me?" ”
Wang Yun immediately replied, "Your Majesty, don't panic, the thief general Peng Yu has already offered a good plan."
Liu Hong didn't have the heart to ask who came up with it, and said repeatedly, "Wang Aiqing, but it's okay to talk about it." ”
Wang Yun said loudly, "Your Majesty, the Tiger Prison Pass Dong Chong's army has been defeated, the Tiger Prison Pass is empty, the Yellow Turban Army will take advantage of the situation, and at that time my Han will be in danger, and I ask Your Majesty to immediately transfer troops to relieve the urgent need!" ”
Liu Hong's face turned pale and said in a trembling voice, "What Wang Aiqing said is very true, but I have no soldiers to send, what can I do about it?" ”
Wang Yun immediately said, "Your Majesty still has 30,000 troops in hand, so why don't you say that there is no army to send?" ”
Liu Hong was shocked, and said with a puzzled face: "Thirty thousand troops? ”
Wang Yundao: "There are still 30,000 soldiers under the command of the thief general Peng Yu in Hongnong, as long as Your Majesty gives an order, you can immediately reinforce the Tiger Prison, and please Your Majesty to investigate!" ”
Liu Hong was overjoyed, but when he thought about it again, his face was pale, "No, never!" This army is a captive of the Yellow Turbans, if the day of the Yellow Turban soldiers in the Tiger Prison, this army surrenders, and we all die without a place to be buried. ”
Wang Yun hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, when the minister heard that the general of the town thief was guarding the Han Valley this time, he led the Hongnong army to go, although this army was captured by the Yellow Turban, but since the general of the town thief trusts this army, and we trust Peng Yu, there is no other army in Luoyang except this army, why don't your majesty give it a go?" I believe that the thief general will be able to save the Han from danger! ”
"This ......" Liu Hong's face changed sharply and he hesitated.
Lu Zhi said bitterly, "Your Majesty, the thief general often acts unexpectedly, but he can always turn evil into good fortune, and the thief general is resourceful, since the thief general is like this, there must be a perfect strategy, and please Your Majesty can send troops to the tiger prison, so as not to save him in a hurry, and regret it too late." ”
Peng Bo's face was full of anxiety, "Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to guarantee with his life that my son's army will be able to hold the tiger prison, and I also ask Your Majesty to issue an order immediately, so that the situation will not be irreparable."
Liu Hong frowned and said, "Is there no other way?" He turned his head to look at the general He Jin.
He Jin immediately stepped out of the column and said loudly, "Your Majesty, without further ado, please make a decision immediately, and the general of the thief will be trusted!" ”
"Seconded by the Minister"
"The minister also seconded the proposal"
"Seconded by the Ministers"
……
Liu Hong gritted his teeth and said sharply, "In this case, immediately order Peng Yu to lead the Hongnong Army to rush to the Tiger Prison Pass, and there must be no mistake in keeping the Yellow Turban Thief out of the Pass!" ”
"Your Majesty is sage, and the ministers obey the order"
……
At night, the hall of acacia.
Liu Hong couldn't sleep all night, and Yuan Kui begged to see him.
Yuan Kui trembled slightly and said, "Your Majesty, Puyang is defeated, and the Tiger Prison is difficult to defend, although Your Majesty urgently dispatches the thief general to go, but if it can't hold on, the Tiger Prison is lost, then Luoyang is in danger, Your Majesty is in danger, Your Majesty must not be guarded." ”
Liu Hong's face was pale, he touched his forehead and said, "I naturally know that this matter is very dangerous, but there is no other way." ”
Yuan Kui frowned and looked at Liu Hong, as if he wanted to speak and stopped.
Liu Hong hurriedly said: "Yuan Aiqing, do you have a good plan for me?" ”
Yuan Kui seemed to have made up his mind and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister has a plan to protect His Majesty, but it's just ......"
Liu Hong was overjoyed and said, "Speak quickly, speak quickly"
Yuan Kui sighed and said, "Your Majesty, the situation in Luoyang is almost a dead end, and the siege of the Yellow Turban has been completed, Your Majesty may be able to ...... Or maybe..."
Liu Hong frowned and shouted, "Say it quickly"
Yuan Kui said, "Your Majesty, my nephew Yuan Shaozhen guarded the Hangu, several times to break the Yellow Turban Army of Wuguan, although the Yellow Turban Army was surrounded by Wuling, but also made the Yellow Turban Army of Wuguan suffer a lot of losses, had to retreat to Wuguan, so now there is no Yellow Turban Army outside Hangu Pass. ”
Liu Hong was a little impatient, frowned and snorted.
Yuan Kui immediately said, "Luoyang is in danger, Chang'an is comprehensive, and there are Hangu and Tongguan guarding the throat in front of it, so it will be foolproof, why don't Your Majesty retreat to Chang'an to watch the success or failure of the Tiger Prison?" If the tiger prison is completed, His Majesty will return to Luoyang, if the tiger prison is defeated, then His Majesty is safe, just need to rest and recuperate, and gather the army again in the coming day, and the comeback victory or defeat is not known. ”
"Ah...... Liu Hong got up suddenly, his brows were tightly locked, he kept walking back and forth, and his heart was turbulent, although this Yuan Kui said euphemism, what he meant was actually to let Liu Hong move the capital to Chang'an!
Liu Hong didn't know the weight of this matter in his heart, moving the capital was not trivial, and it would affect the whole body.
Liu Hong also understands that no matter how flawed and undesirable Yuan Kui's plan is, it at least shows that Yuan Kui is sincerely the best strategy in the current situation for Liu Hong.
The Great Han Tiger Pass was defeated, the lack of soldiers and major generals, and at the same time guarding the three passes, too reluctant, once retreated to Chang'an, Chang'an before Tongguan only needed an army to make the Yellow Turban army unable to move forward, and the Yellow Turban world was in turmoil, only west of Tongguan, Chang'an and Liangzhou did not have a Yellow Turban soldier, so Liu Hong moved the capital, and his own thoughtfulness must be able to guarantee.
But there is one of the biggest problems with this strategy, that is, it completely abandons all the areas west of Tongguan, you must know that Luoyang is the foundation.
Liu Hong was difficult to decide, and walked back and forth non-stop.
Yuan Kui said again, "Your Majesty, if it is difficult to decide, why don't you make preparations with both light and dark? ”
Liu Hong asked, "What is one light and one dark?" ”
Yuan Kui said, "The general of the town thief guards the tiger prison for the light, and the Yuan family gathers the army to retreat to Chang'an for the dark, and each prepares, if the tiger prison is fine, then the dark road does not need to be carried out, but if the tiger prison is difficult to defend, then Your Majesty immediately retreats to Chang'an, what do you think?" ”
Liu Hong muttered, "The Yuan family gathers the army? ”
Yuan Kui took a deep breath and said, "Exactly, Your Majesty thinks twice!" ”
Liu Hong asked, "Who can take on this role?" ”
Yuan Kui immediately said, "Yuan Shao Yuan Benchu, can take on this important task, this time my nephew led the army to Wuguan, although the loss was not small, but also killed most of the soldiers of Wuguan, and just took advantage of this matter to let Yuan Shao raise another army, for His Majesty to move the capital, there is no doubt about this matter, please make a decision!" ”
Liu Hong nodded, "It's okay, let Yuan Shao raise another army in Luoyang to meet the coming day, but this matter must not be publicized, and it should be kept secret." ”
Yuan Kui was overjoyed and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, no one else knows about this matter, please rest assured, Your Majesty." ”
