Episode 0183: Recuperate

Yellow Turban Camp, Zhang Baobocai.

Since Zhang Bao took over as the coach of the Yellow Turban, he has been with Bocai for a long time, and Bocai is worthy of being Zhang Jiao's confidant, since Zhang Jiao ordered him to follow Zhang Bao, so Bocai has been dedicated to acting as Zhang Bao's confidant.

Zhang Bao frowned and said, "You said that this Peng Yu opened and closed the door, what do you want?" ”

Bo Cai took two steps forward and said in a low voice, "Dashuai, Peng Yu came to the Tiger Prison this time, and brought tens of thousands of troops, if he guards the Tiger Prison, it will be difficult for us to go further, and this person actually opened and closed the door, there must be fraud in it, and the handsome man must not move lightly." ”

Zhang Bao nodded and sighed, "It makes sense, although this son is young, he is ruthless, and the fire outside the Tiger Prison can make Ben Shuai's heart palpitate." ”

Bo Cai sighed when he heard this, and said, "Marshal Zhang Jiao is also extremely jealous of this person, and now this person is leading the army to garrison the Tiger Prison, and the marshal is really not suitable for attacking." ”

Zhang Bao looked at Bo Cai and said, "You mean, you want me to wait for the army to retreat?" ”

Bocai said in a deep voice, "The marshal, the yellow turban has changed the commander, the army is uneasy, taking advantage of the victory to pursue is a long journey, it is difficult to kill tens of thousands of enemies to change the situation of lack of food, and there are still tens of thousands of troops in the tiger prison, and the waterway is also cut off by the Han army, Yecheng still does not know what the situation is, and the tiger guard Peng Yu is even better at surprise attacks, once our army attacks the tiger prison is a little unexpected, I am afraid that the army will be difficult to return, so is it not a waste of previous achievements?" ”

Zhang Bao thought of the eldest brother Zhang Jiao and the third brother Zhang Liang, and was silent for a long time, "Then according to your plan, what should I do?" ”

Bocai whispered, "The first time the marshal is in charge of the Yellow Turban, to convince everyone of the Yellow Turban, I'm afraid it will take time, now the Marshal has a plan to kill more than 30,000 people in the main force of the Han army, and his reputation is flourishing, it only takes a little time, and the Yellow Turban will be convincing to follow the marshal, so for today's plan, the only way is to retreat to Puyang, let our army rest and recuperate, and wait for the next year's soldiers to fight to the death with the Han Dynasty!" ”

Zhang Bao was silent for a long time when he heard this, Zhang Bao knew that this Yellow Turban Army could die for the eldest brother Zhang Jiao, but it would be difficult to guarantee it if he changed himself, fortunately, the eldest brother's plan allowed him to quickly get everyone's approval, but to completely control the whole army, I am afraid it will really take some time.

After a long time, Zhang Bao nodded slowly, "Okay, just according to your words." After a pause, he said, "It's just that the morale of the Yellow Turban Army is high, and they all want to fight, if they retreat to Puyang, I am afraid that the morale of the army will be unfavorable." ”

Bocai said, "The marshal doesn't have to worry about this matter, the lack of food in the army, everyone knows it, just take this matter as a reason, the retreat is in common sense, just persuade the commanders, and then lead the army back to Puyang, and everyone will support it." ”

Zhang Bao nodded and said, "Okay, then that's it, pass on my general order and raise the account." ”

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.

He Man, Peng Tuo, Liu Pi, Zhang Tu, Guan Hai, Bo Cai and other more than a dozen Yellow Turban Qu Shuai gathered in the big tent, and Zhang Bao naturally sat in the coach's seat.

Zhang Bao held his head high and looked at everyone, "The tiger prison guard Peng Yu opened and closed the door, despised me and others, I want to fight to the death with him, what do you think?" ”

He Man got up, "What the marshal said is very true, and please take me as the vanguard, and Man will take Peng Yu's head and dedicate it to the account." ”

Peng Tuo was taken away by Lu Bu today, and he was already a little ashamed in his heart, and when he heard that He Man wanted to replace himself as the vanguard, he was extremely angry with the Tiger Prison Pass, and immediately shouted when he heard the words, "Dashuai, Peng Tuo will lead 3,000 troops into the pass, and swear to take the Tiger Prison and Peng Yu's head, if there is a mistake, please behead me, and ask the Marshal for permission." ”

Zhang Bao smiled when he heard this, "There is a General Peng in the Han Dynasty to guard the pass, and I have a Peng Qushuai in the Yellow Turban as a pioneer, the two of you are bound to have a winner or loser, Peng Qushuai is a little restless, and when you come to Japan, Shuai will let you fight with Peng Yu." ”

Peng Tuo was inexplicably grateful to Zhang Bao when he heard this, this sentence said that he was still a pioneer, and he Zhang Bao still trusted him, and immediately said loudly, "Xie Dashuai trusts, Dashuai has a life, Peng Tuo will never give up." ”

Liu Bi, Zhang Tu, and Guan Hai all wanted to fight together, Zhang Bao laughed and nodded again and again, but his eyes looked at Bo Cai from time to time.

After everyone's words of inviting war were over, Bo Cai got up and said, "Marshal, the art of war: the three armies have not moved, and the grain and grass go first." Now our army is short of food, and the Tiger Pass is difficult to break for a while, and the waterway is cut off by the Han army, Yecheng Huguan is obtained by the Han army, the marshal should immediately lead the army back to Puyang to stabilize the situation, I am afraid that there will be changes. ”

The whole tent was quiet, the lack of food was the biggest problem, everyone was helpless, but the recent victory covered up the matter, and now it was mentioned by Bocai, everyone remembered this matter, and the optimism was swept away, and they were all a little worried.

The rest of the matter is much simpler, in Zhang Bao and Bo Cai sang and harmonized, all the Qu Shuai thought that retiring from Puyang was the best policy, so far Zhang Bao's army finally reached an agreement, retired from Puyang, and recuperated.

Zhong Qushuai also deeply felt the difference between Zhang Bao and Zhang Jiao in this matter, Zhang Jiao was more of a cadre, everyone obeyed orders, and all strategies and tactics were Zhang Jiao's one; Zhang Bao, on the other hand, is more about brainstorming and letting everyone participate in decision-making, so although Zhang Bao's time in power has been interrupted, everyone is becoming more and more focused.

For three days in a row, although the door of the Tiger Prison was always open, the Yellow Turban really turned a blind eye and still kept scolding every day, but Peng Yu just strictly ordered everyone not to step out of the Tiger Prison, and turned a deaf ear to the Yellow Turban's scolding.

Three days later, the yellow scarf didn't even scream and scold, Peng Yu and Guo Jia were happy in their hearts, this yellow scarf must have retired from the army!

Sure enough, after Peng Yu sent the army out to investigate, the Yellow Turban army finally retreated, and Peng Yu naturally did not send the army to pursue, and the two sides were as if they had made an appointment, and they were all right.

Not only is there nothing to do, but Peng Yu and Zhang Bao have their own gains.

After Zhang Bao took over from Zhang Jiao, he killed more than 30,000 Han soldiers in the first battle, and his reputation was in full swing within the Yellow Turban Army. And because of this, the Han army would never dare to attack the Yellow Turban again, so Zhang Bao was undoubtedly satisfied with this.

And Peng Yu is even more satisfied, the situation in the Han Dynasty is in crisis, almost incorrigible, everyone is in danger, but Peng Yu went out, but the crisis of the Han Dynasty was immediately quelled overnight, this is a great achievement made in heaven, and it is a great achievement that cannot be avoided.

This time after being ordered to be in danger, especially after Jia Xu's processing, and then publicized by the important ministers of the court, and under the advocacy of the eunuch group, Peng Yu was characterized as a famous general who turned the tide of "a plan to determine the Han Valley, and the empty city retreated from the yellow scarf", and for a while there was a faint majesty of the first general of the Eastern Han Dynasty, as for Peng Yu's achievements, it caused a great repercussion in the Han Dynasty, and was widely sung by the people in Luoyang City.

Peng Yu's great achievements made the Han court cheer, and Liu Honglong's face was happy, so this reward came very quickly.

Peng Yu was crowned as the general of the "Five Levels".

Liu Hong referred to the Tiger Prison Pass, Mengjin Lane, Tongguan, Hangu Pass, and the Wuguan Pass, which was still occupied by the Yellow Turbans, as the "Five Passes", and Peng Yu's "General of the Five Passes" certainly meant the highest military command of these five passes.

Although General Wuguan is a position created by Liu Hong, although he can't count how high his official position is, in the current situation of the Han Dynasty, General Wuguan is definitely the first general with real power, and this reward is enough to reflect Liu Hong's great trust in Peng Yu.

Even Wang Yun was named Situ by Liu Hong, Cai Yong was named Shizhong, Lu Zhi was named Beizhong Lang General, as for the general He Jin, although his official position could not go further, everyone knew that Peng Yu was a person in the boat of the He family, in other words, Peng Yurong was more glorious to the He family, and almost everyone else who was a military general who was in the army to protect Peng Yu or had an old relationship with Peng Yu was rewarded, and even Gao Wang and other eunuchs were rewarded with some wine, food and other things.

Suddenly, Peng Yu's name was in the limelight in the Han Dynasty for a while, and he was extravagant.

In particular, Dong Chong's defeat made the Dong family endanger themselves and live in fear, for fear that Liu Hong would be angry with the Dong family, then the Dong family would be completely finished, and the Dong family would be completely finished, and the Dong family would not know how much to be implicated after it was over, so almost all the neutral courtiers in the recent past have fallen to the He faction.

It's just a pity that the characteristics of the Han are that the scars are good and forget the pain, the Han rules the world with filial piety, and the Empress Dowager Dong is His Majesty's mother, so Dong Chong's unpardonable crime was actually protected by the Queen Mother, so that Liu Hong just went to prison in anger and sent all the Dong faction figures who tried to protect Dong Chong to prison, and the Dong family was not pursued or even Dong Chong was no longer mentioned.

These are clearly His Majesty's disobedience, Peng Yu doesn't want to play a book, until Dong Yu is dead, but it's a pity that Jia Xu and Guo Jia don't approve of this matter, because Dong Chong is a relative of the emperor, and there is more support from the Queen Mother, if once Peng Yu plays and treats Dong Chong's capital crime, the Queen Mother's party will be angry with Peng Yu, and more targeted at Peng Yu, and then play Peng Yu's pampering and arrogance or something, these can do no harm to Peng Yu, and Dong Zhong doesn't know life and death, so Peng Yu can't take such a risk for a person whose life and death are unknown, I had to put up with it for the time being.

Peng Yu's official position is even more: General Han Zhendong, Marquis of Huaiyin, General of Wuguan led Hongnong County and served as a Shaofu.

The official titles are getting longer and longer, the military and the government are integrated, and fame and fortune are gained.

After Zhang Bao collected his troops back to Puyang, the siege of Yecheng and Huguan had already been relieved, and in the case of Zhang Jiao's death, the Yellow Turban was also exchanged for hard-won recuperation, during this period, without the disturbance of the Han Army, the raising of grain and grass was extremely smooth, and therefore the Yellow Turban army gradually stabilized, and the Yellow Turban was more attentive to Zhang Bao.

Since the Han army and the Yellow Turban each boycotted, for a long period of time, there was no large-scale battle, the Han and the Yellow Turban chose to strike and stop the fight at the same time in the case of their own difficulties, the world actually in such a special situation in exchange for their own rest and recuperation, many dawn people thought that the war had been calmed down.

It's just that the boycott of the two sides has to stop the war, and the recuperation is also the recuperation, when Zhang Bao further becomes the spiritual leader of the Yellow Turban and solves the problem of shortage of military rations, the Yellow Turban will definitely make a comeback!

And the ruler of the Han Dynasty will never be willing to be beaten passively, Liu Hong strictly ordered Peng Yu to let Hongnong's 50,000 army really become the main force of the Han Dynasty, and even ordered Wang Yun, Lu Zhi, Yuan Shao and others to form a new army, everyone knows that once the Han army is strong, it will definitely crusade against the Yellow Turban again.

Therefore, the strike of the two armies does not mean that the two armies coexist peacefully, but only that the dawn before the storm is generally accumulating energy, and once this accumulated energy is released, the sky will fall apart and the earth will shake.
