Episode 202: Zhan Han Valley, Jizhou moves

Kill! The military order was issued, the butcher's knife was held high, Wang Yun's family, up to the old man in the twilight, down to the young children in the clan, and never let go of a single person, smelling the ruthless methods of the Xiliang army, the people of Chang'an all shed tears.

An old man of the Wang family was highly respected, and when he heard the disaster, he drank away the survivors in the Wang Yun clan, and said angrily, "Death is death!" Why be afraid? Don't spoil Wang Situ's reputation! ”

When Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and others heard this, they were all slightly stunned, only to see that the old man of the Wang family was calmly dying, and said in a hateful voice, "Thief, although the old man dies without regret, Wang Situ and I will wait for you in hell, sooner or later, one day, you will all die well!" After saying that, he was killed, and from beginning to end, he never showed half of his fear.

Infected by the behavior of this clan elder, even those Wang clan people who had just survived did not speak, although there was still a very obvious look of horror on their faces, but no one spoke out to plead.

Seeing this, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and others couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring in their hearts, but they also felt scared from the bottom of their hearts, it seemed that an ancient family like the Wang family had really reached an incredible level of control over the hearts of the clansmen, so they didn't dare to keep their hands at all.

"Kill, kill, kill them all for me, not a single one will be left!" Cutting the grass does not remove the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows, since the hostility has been chosen, then it is necessary to do things absolutely!

The butcher's knife rose and fell, ruthless and ruthless, in the screams of the ups and downs, Wang Yun's family totaled 238 people, all of them were killed, and the blood stained the ground of the execution ground red, like a lit red flame, burning the last trace of the Han Dynasty, about to turn into ashes.

When Emperor Xian heard that Situ Wang Yun's whole family was executed, he was close to each other in his heart, and proclaimed upstairs, "Since Wang Yun has been ambushed, why don't you wait for the army and horses to retreat?" ”

Li Dao and Guo Yan said respectfully. "The ministers see that Chang'an is empty of soldiers and horses, and it is difficult to protect the safety of His Majesty, so I hereby ask Your Majesty to allow us to stay in Beijing to protect the safety of the imperial city!"

Emperor Xian was angry and frightened, seeing that all the officials in the court were showing fear, he was afraid to speak, and his heart was painful. However, they were powerless to resist Li Dao, Guo Yan and others, so they had to order the Xiliang Army to enter Chang'an.

In front of Hangu Pass, Xiao Lan wanted to lead troops to attack, but he heard Guo Jia say: "The lord doesn't need to worry, the Chang'an incident, the Xiliang army is no longer able to hold Hangu Pass, and in a few days, they will retreat on their own." ”

Xiao Lan said in a deep voice: "Hangu Pass is the gate of Guanzhong. Guanzhong is the old land of the Qin period, and taking Guanzhong is very important for the Taiping army to unify the world. ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Although Guanzhong is important, it is adjacent to Xiliang and borders with the state, and Ma Teng and Cao Cao are not to be underestimated, Jia has already predicted it." In order to save the emperor, Cao Cao will lead troops to attack Li Dao and Guo Yan. We just need to capture Hangu Pass, wait for them to fight and lose, and take Guanzhong, and we will not be defeated. ”

"Huh?" With a deep groan, Xiao Lan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, after all the experience. He is no longer the original rookie, he has insight into people's hearts and worlds, how could he not know that Guo Jia's vision is far-reaching, and he immediately asked in a deep voice: "In this case, after taking Hangu Pass." Ben Shuai led his troops to Jizhou, Yuan Shao and others have been jumping for a long time, it's time to take him down, Youzhou Gongsun Zan is not an idle person, it has dragged on for too long, it is not a good thing for the Taiping army. ”

"What the lord said is very true." Guo Jiadao: "Jizhou is rich, and the Yuan family has a deep foundation in Jizhou, not only more than 200,000 soldiers, but also Tian Feng's frustration and strategy, Yan Liangwen and ugly bravery, plus several princes to help, Rao is Zhicai gathered more than 300,000 Taiping troops on both roads, and it is still difficult to fully occupy Jizhou, such a large-scale war, the longer it lasts, the greater the consumption, for the Taiping army, it is definitely not a good thing." ”

"Today, all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived, even though the Taiping army occupies most of the world, but if it wants to reverse the trend of rise and fall, it is still insufficient, so it is the first priority to take Jizhou as soon as possible and enter Youzhou!" Guo Jiadao: "Although our Taiping army dominates the world, unfortunately, due to geographical restrictions, lack of horses, it is difficult to form a large-scale cavalry, Jizhou connects the Hetao area, and Youzhou connects the grassland in the north, which are strategic points that cannot be abandoned. ”

"Cavalry!" For this most powerful mobile army in ancient times, Xiao Lan naturally will not have the slightest idea, but although the area occupied by the Taiping Army is vast, there is really no suitable horse farm, so today, the Taiping Army has millions of soldiers, but the number of cavalry is only 50,000, which can be regarded as a short board!

"Good!" Xiao Lan understood Guo Jia's words, and immediately responded: "When Hangu Pass is taken, Ben Shuai will lead his troops to Jizhou to wipe out Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan and the remaining Kwantung princes!" ”

Ten days later, Cao Cao raised 100,000 troops to attack Chang'an, Xu Rong really abandoned Hangu Pass, led his troops to Chang'an and Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and others rounded, gathered an army of 180,000 people, and Cao Cao launched a battle for Chang'an.

Xiao Lan easily occupied Hangu Pass without spending a single soldier, and ordered Chen Deng, Zhang He, Wen Ping, Li Yan, and Leng Bao to lead 50,000 troops to guard Hangu Pass, while he and Guo Jia took Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Jia Long and an army of 50,000, and went straight across Sizhou to Jizhou.

Jizhou, Yuan Shao, Han Fu, Yuan Yi, Kong Rong and others together, gathered an army of 250,000, in the boundary bridge, Bohai City line and the Taiping army to start a big war, this battle, several princes under the command of the ministers and generals to the generals, Wenchen Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Trial, Feng Ji, Xu You, Guo Tu, etc., military generals Ju Yi, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Gao Gan, Zhang Nan, Jiao Touch, Lu Xiang, Lu Kuang, Lu Weihuang, Chun Yuqiong, Guo Yuan, Yu Yuanjin, Zhaozhao, Su You, Yan Rou, Wang Men, etc., can be described as a huge lineup, In order to defeat the Taiping army that invaded Jizhou in one fell swoop.

Yuan Shao knew that the prestige of his lord of the princes' alliance would gradually decline over time, so once he arrived, he launched an attack on the former army camp of the Taiping Army.

Seeing this, Tian Fengdang, who was one of the military divisions of the army, said with a worried face: "General Ju Yi, this attack on the Taiping military camp is not trivial, why do you need to do such a senseless competition with the enemy?" It should be right to immediately open the army and attack the camp directly! ”

In the face of Tian Feng's questioning, Ju Yi had not yet answered, and Feng Ji on the other side had already responded with a wry smile: "Brother Tian has to question, General Ju Yi is also helpless!" According to the previous information, although the Taiping thieves are dividing their troops to attack Bohai City, they are outnumbered, the front army camp of Jieqiao is still guarded by 80,000 troops, although our vanguard army has 100,000 people, but if you want to storm the enemy camp, you are afraid that you will suffer heavy casualties, and the gains outweigh the losses! ”

"Not bad!" Ju Yi said in a deep voice: "The lord knows that the Taiping thief is not easy to deal with, and has invited General Gongsun Chan of Youzhou to come to help, so what we have to do is to wait until General Gongsun Zhan's army arrives, and then we will join forces to attack the enemy camp. ”

"I see!" Hearing the words of Feng Ji and Ju Yi, Tian Feng immediately came to his senses, and said: "The general's move is really clever, and I admire it, but just by challenging in front of the battle, I'm afraid it is not a long-term solution, I don't know when General Gongsun Chan will be able to lead the army to come?" ”

"At least three days later!" Ju Yi said coldly: "So, before that, I only hope that the general of our army can successfully suppress the other party's thief general." ”

After the three-way war drum was completed, I looked from afar, and saw that the wall of the Taiping military camp was already full of people, but the distance was too far, and I couldn't see which members of the Taiping army had landed, Ju Yi immediately urged him to take a step forward, and shouted loudly: "I am Ju Yi, the general of Jizhou, on the order of my lord, I have come to exterminate the rebels such as Er, who dares to fight with me?!" ”

The challenge before the battle is not an uncommon trick, but if it should not, it is a great blow to morale, and the Taiping army has never been afraid of any challenge, so Ju Yi invited the battle to speak out, and the Taiping army general led the troops out, far away, I heard a tiger general shouting and speaking: "The enemy general is rampant, the Taiping army general Tai Shici is here, who dares to come to die?!"
