Volume 1 Chapter 144 Yuan Shao and Zhang Yan
Under the city of Huguan, Yuan Shao's camp.
Lu Bu returned to his camp and was unanimously loved by the soldiers.
If you want to take it with the strength of the soldiers, you don't know how many lives you will have to use to fill it.
And Lu Bu took this pass down with just one 'fighting general', which saved the lives of many soldiers, how could the soldiers not love him?
What Han Cheng said, Yuan Shao and the others also heard it clearly in their own camp.
won the Huguan so effortlessly, Yuan Shao was overjoyed, and said to the people around him happily: "Haha, I have General Lu Bu, and I can win a thousand troops; With the power of one person, he won a level. It's really my 'lucky general'. β
Seeing that Yuan Shao was so happy, everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding that they had forgotten the agreement between Lu Bu and Huang Zhong for sixty rounds, and flattered in unison: "The lord's wisdom and talent are all the ability of the lord." β
When Yuan Shao heard everyone say this, his heart became even happier, and he looked up to the sky and laughed.
The generals don't have as many fancy intestines as the scribes, and they always have something to say.
Wen Chou had been staring closely at the battlefield, doubting the number of rounds of the battle between Lu Bu and Huang Zhong and Lu Bu's final blow, and said out untimely: "Hmph! Obviously I was able to kill Huang Zhong, but I released the water in the last blow, thinking that no one else could see it, when I was ugly and blind? β
As a military general, Wen Chou has always spoken straightforwardly.
As soon as these words came out, the people who had flattered Yuan Shao just now secretly said in their hearts: "You are stupid, the lord pretends not to know, what are you doing here?" What do you mean? Just what you can? We don't know, huh? Dasha lacks one. β
Yan Liang and Wen Chou were as deep as the sea, and when they heard Wen Chou's words, they secretly screamed in their hearts: "It's not a good thing." Everyone tacitly concealed the truth and flattered Yuan Shao, but Wen Chou told the truth, isn't this a slap in the face of everyone? How will we get along in the future? What's more important is Lu Bu's character, how can Wen Chou be so noisy? β
He hurriedly said to Wen Chou: "Shut up quickly." What do you know about your half-martial arts? General Lu is brave and invincible, how can you see it clearly? β
He quickly turned his head and said to Lu Bu: "General Lu, my brother and Huang Zhong have a personal grudge, and they were making a lot of nonsense just now, don't take it to heart." β
What kind of ear power does Lu Bu have? The bows and arrows that are shot can be discerned, and Wen Chou's words are not equivalent to what he said next to Lu Bu's ears.
After hearing Wen Chou's words, Lu Bu's face was a little unbearable.
After all, when he Lu Bu sent the final blow, he did have admiration for Huang Zhong, and he was indeed suspected of releasing water.
When Lu Bu's 'Force Splitting Huashan' slashed at Huang Zhong, Lu Bu withdrew five points of strength, and Fang Tian's halberd fell only by inertia, and this huge inertia also made blood flow from the corners of Huang Zhong's mouth, making Huang Zhong's war horse fall to the ground.
In this world, only a super ninth-grade martial artist like Lu Bu can control his power so superbly.
Lu Bu thought that no one could see his actions, but he was broken by Wen Chou.
It would be fine if Wen Chou's martial arts were comparable to Lu Bu, but Wen Chou's martial arts obviously did not belong to this range.
It's like an 'expert' who knows he's saying something wrong, but a person who hasn't even gone to college babbles about it.
If the 'expert' is a cautious person, he will inevitably find a time to crack down on this person.
And Lu Bu is precisely this 'cautious expert'.
So, Lu Bu said to Wen Chou with that empty look: "Heh! You seem to be very unconvinced, why don't we make two moves, and you will try my water in person?
But what about your martial arts, alas! I won't bully you, as long as you can walk through thirty rounds in my hands, even if you are right, admit that I did release the water just now. β
After listening to Lu Bu's words, Wen Chou looked eager to try.
Yan Liang looked pleading, and said to Lu Bu: "General Lu said that he laughed, the general is invincible in the world, why should he be like this?" My brother knows that he is wrong, and I will compensate the general for my brother, and ask the general to raise his noble hand. β
When people said soft words, Lu Bu could only "Hmph!" Expressing his anger in his heart, he stopped mentioning the matter.
On the second day, Han Cheng ordered the army to withdraw from Huguan as promised.
How can you easily spit out the fat in your mouth?
There are seven counties in Shangdang County, and in addition to Huguan, there are six counties.
According to the agreement, the Fenwu Army gave up the land of Huguan, and in other places, if Yuan Shao wanted, he still needed to see the strength.
Han Cheng ordered Zhang He to send 8,000 Qinglong troops, 3,000 Suzaku troops and 8,000 soldiers to the two counties closest to Huguan, Guyuan County and Lu County, as the main military force against Yuan Shao's army in Huguan.
Yuan Shao knew the strategic significance of Huguan to the two states of Jizhou, and when the army entered Huguan, Yuan Shao's heart was full of indescribable spirit, and a strong ambition could not help but arise.
Yuan Shao had occupied Jizhou for nearly two years. Under the governance of Yuan Shao, the people's livelihood in Jizhou is stable, and the soldiers are strong.
In the north of Jizhou, Gongsun Zan of Yuan Shao's deterrence frontier did not dare to take a step out of the border of Youzhou;
In the east of Jizhou, Yuan Shao has taken Pingyuan County and other places, and the only force that can be seen in the entire Qingzhou is Kong Rong of Beihai County, Kong Rong is a weak scholar, and there are no fierce generals under him.
To the south of Jizhou is Yanzhou, which Cao Cao occupies, as if he is full of feathers and threatens himself.
But Cao Cao was not only his younger brother, but also Yanzhou had very little production, and due to years of war, the population was greatly reduced, and it could not be compared with the wealthy Jizhou.
What threat can there be with little food and few soldiers?
For Yuan Shao, there are only the remnants of Han Fu who merged with the states in the West. Now he has been taken down by himself and choked by his throat. The annexation of the states has become a matter of course.
After exterminating Han Cheng, Kong Rong, and Gongsun Zhan, he owns the land of Sizhou.
In one fell swoop, in the middle of the world, who can stop himself from stepping on the Central Plains?
Unlike Yuan Shao's high spirits, Han Cheng, who lost the kettle, was more cautious in his actions.
After leading the army back to Taiyuan County, he redeployed his men and horses.
Pan Feng and Liu Hu led 2,000 Xuanwu troops and 3,000 soldiers to garrison the remaining four counties of Shangdang County.
On the one hand, he was responsible for guarding and selecting prisoners, and on the other hand, he was responsible for assisting the county commander and others to implement the policy of 'land division order' in the six counties of Shangdang County;
Liu Bao led 12,000 sharp sword troops back to Shuofang County and Wuyuan County to garrison to prevent the attack of the Xianbei tribe in the northern state;
Wei Yan led an army of 10,000 to defend the newly built six counties of Yunxiang County;
And Han Cheng himself personally led the remaining Qinglong Army and Vermilion Bird Army and some soldiers to garrison Taiyuan County.
As for the remaining Yanmen County, Changshan County and other places, they are their old territories, and the army in the county does not make any changes.
The battle that took place before the Huguan soon spread all over the world.
Although Huang Zhong almost died, being able to fight alone with Lu Bu for sixty rounds was enough to be proud of the world.
......
In the depths of Taihang Mountain, there are clouds and mist, and hundreds of thousands of people live here.
Black Mountain Village, the village where Zhang Yan, the largest leader of the Black Mountain Army, is located.
In the reception hall, the two leaders are trying to bargain like street vendors.
These two leaders are none other than Fuyun and Zhang Yan.
Among them, the strong man with slender and powerful legs is Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan is a person who is brave and fierce in battle, brave and good at fighting and agile, and everyone in the Montenegrin army is called "Feiyan".
At the same time, Zhang Yan is also one of the few leaders of the Yellow Turban Army in "Three Kingdoms" who can start and finish well.
The reason why he is so good is inseparable from his vision of knowing people.
Zhang Yan is close to the land of Jizhou, and it stands to reason that the first person to defect should be Yuan Shao, but Zhang Yan has no good impression of Yuan Shao.
The reason is that Zhang Yan captured Yecheng and left the lives of Yuan Shao and others' families, in fact, he wanted to ease the relationship with Yuan Shao and others and pave the way for future refuge.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao relied on his family and noble status, and showed no mercy to Zhang Yan and others, and killed them before negotiating.
Just because of their different backgrounds, Zhang Yan and others were treated unequally in vain, which is enough to see Yuan Shao's open-mindedness.
Therefore, Zhang Yan has no good impression of Yuan Shao, and it is impossible to take refuge in Yuan Shao no matter what, after all, the purpose of taking refuge is to live better, not to die.
Just when Zhang Yan was choosing the lord, Han Cheng's subordinate Fuyun appeared, as if giving Zhang Yan a ray of light.
After Fuyun returned to the cottage, he first met with himself and explained his intentions to himself, but he had a net worth of nearly a million people in his hands, how could he lead the crowd to take refuge with Fuyun's words?
So Zhang Yan did not say anything on the spot.
Seeing that Zhang Yan couldn't persuade him, Fuyun went to the Baique Department and the Wulu Department, which had a good relationship with him, and persuaded the Baique and Wulu to return to the state and Han Cheng.
These two small tribes belong to the lower tribes in the Black Mountain Army, and the food they get each time is completely not enough to eat.
As a result, before he reached Gaoyi County, Changshan County, which was closest to the Montenegrin Army, he was stopped by Zhang Yan's faction, and Fuyun had to come to Zhang Yan's reception hall to find out.
Fuyun said to Zhang Yan straight to the point: "Leader Zhang, when our Black Mountain Army was established, there were regulations, and Leader Zhang couldn't interfere with the stay of the tribes, I don't know what it means today?" β
Zhang Yan knew that what he was doing was very unreasonable, so he had to say: "Leader Fuyun, I know that you are going to take refuge in Han Cheng of Bingzhou. Is Han Cheng's words reliable? It can't be a lie to our population. I'm thinking about my brothers' tribes. β
Fuyun said solemnly: "Leader Zhang, if you talk like this, brother, I am very sad.
I have seen the land division order with my own eyes, and the people of Yanmen County in Bingzhou have indeed been given land, and the people of other counties in Bingzhou are also dividing their fields and farming.
Han Cheng treats everyone equally, and he is really a rare master.
If you don't believe me, let your brothers inquire and see if I'm lying. β
Zhang Yan had already sent someone to inquire, knowing that what Fuyun said was true.
Knowing that he couldn't persuade Fuyun like this, he directly exposed his purpose and said:
"Floating Cloud Chief, no matter what the forces are now, the people are a good thing, and with the people there is everything.
So many people, they used to be raised by me Zhang Yan, but now they are leaving without a sound, is it unreasonable? β
It turned out that Zhang Yan had hundreds of thousands of people under him, but there was no fixed base area, and food has always been a big problem.
Fuyun wanted to take away 40,000 people to defect to Han Cheng this time, Zhang Yan wanted to use this as an excuse to borrow some food from Han Cheng.
As soon as Fuyun heard Zhang Yan's words, he instantly understoodβthis was a desire for something.
In a serious tone, he said: "Leader Zhang, what you need can be discussed, why bother with knives and guns?" If there is a conflict, it will not be good for anyone. β
Zhang Yan saw that Fuyun understood what he meant so well, so he said unceremoniously: "I don't say secret words, hurry up, two stones of grain for one people." I'll give you a whole thing, 80,000 stone of grain, and you will take refuge in whomever you like. β
Fuyun secretly said in his heart: "This price is too high." I knew that Zhang Yan was leaving room for bargaining for herself.
Fuyun said bluntly: "No, you are a lion with a big mouth, I can't promise you."
At most, one stone of grain for one people, if you agree, I will write to my father-in-law Han Cheng to discuss; If I don't agree, I'll go back to the state by myself. β
Zhang Yan's original intention was to exchange one stone of grain for one people, and when he heard that Fuyun was also at such a price, he said: "Okay, for the sake of our many years of friendship, one stone of grain for one people." When the food arrives, I will personally lead the army to escort you to Changshan County. β
