Chapter 339: The Hundred-Year-Old Family Was Broken
Dong Zhuo's speed of moving the capital so quickly not only surprised Luoyang and others, but also caught Ma Qiang off guard.
"What? Dong Zhuo wants to move the capital? ”
Ma Qiang looked at the telegram that Jia Xu handed to him and was startled.
Yes, he knew that Dong Zhuo was going to move the capital to Chang'an, and he also knew that this dead fat man would set fire to Luoyang.
But it's okay now, Lu Bu is still showing off his martial arts in the Tiger Prison, why are you running away?
Is this script messed up?
"Duke Ming, if Dong Zhuo moves the capital now, our plans will be completely messed up!" Jia Xu pointed to the map and said, "From Luoyang to Chang'an, the road is about 800 miles, according to the telegram, Your Majesty is afraid that he has already set off at this time, and he will arrive in Chang'an in five days."
The ministers of the court and the common people would walk slowly, so that the large group of men and horses, plus the heavy carriages and horses, could not walk fast, and they could walk at most forty miles a day, and they would have to walk for twenty days.
However, from Luoyang to Chang'an, there are still important places such as Hangu, and if our army wants to stop the westward migration team, it must be in front of Hangu Pass, which is about 300 miles away from Luoyang.
Counting the time for these ministers and people to prepare, our army must break through the Tiger Prison Pass within 15 days and chase after it with cavalry, so that it is possible to intercept Dong Zhuo's capital relocation team! ”
Fifteenth?
Break through the Tiger Prison?
Ma Qiang gasped, this is simply an impossible task.
"How long will it take for Yuan Shao and the others to arrive?"
"I'm afraid it will take two days to get to the Tiger Prison! The back of the bridge won't be there until the third day! ”
"Three days... It will only be twelve days before they arrive..."Ma Qiang looked at Jia Xu, hoping that he would come up with a good idea.
Jia Xu shook the feather fan lightly, he didn't expect Dong Zhuo, no, it was Li Ru who would be so decisive, if the army is defeated, it will be defeated first, this Li Ru is even more poisonous than himself...
"The terrain of Tiger Prison Pass is dangerous, so you can't storm it... Is Ming Gong willing to send out the Air Force? ”
The Air Force, a secret force built by Ma Qiang over the years, uses hot air balloons, and in this era when there are no thermal weapons, hot air balloons have no natural enemies.
Although, Ma Qiang's hot air balloon doesn't have any attack power.
"Although the Air Force can climb over the Tiger Pass, there are too few people who can bring it, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a miraculous effect, right?"
"No, Xu has carefully observed the Tiger Prison Pass, the grain and grass of the Tiger Prison Pass are hoarded in the southwest corner, if the air force is dispatched to carry fire oil and other things, just one torch can make the tens of thousands of Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses in the Tiger Pass run out of grain and grass!" Jia Xu pointed to Luoyang and said, "Since Dong Zhuo wants to move the capital, the grain and grass must be placed in front of the people, or the army will be with the people, so that Chang'an will not have too much grain and grass, as long as the grain in the pass is burned, not a day, the Tiger Prison Pass will be broken by the army!" ”
Hiss!
The ancients said that there is no more ruthlessness than starvation.
This Jia Xu is really a poisoner, and he started by collecting grain and grass.
Ma Qiang thought for a while, shook his head and said, "If you don't compromise the means, I still have gunpowder to use, but now it's not for me to attack the city on the plain, use gunpowder or the air force, even if we win the Tiger Pass, our plain will become the target of everyone, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out." ”
Ma Qiang still remembered that Lao Luo wrote that Sun Jian became the target of public criticism because he took the jade seal, but he did not return to Jiangdong alive.
The hole cards should be used later.
"In that case, we have to change the strategy... Our army brought a large number of ships, so for our army, there is still another way to Luoyang! Jia Xu pointed to Meng Jin above Luoyang and said, "In the past, Ding Yuan burned Mengjin, making this ferry almost deserted, thinking that Dong Zhuo would not send a strong army to defend it, if you want to intercept Dong Zhuo within fifteen days, you can only take Meng Jin!" ”
"Meng Jin..."Ma Qiang looked at the map and nodded, now everyone's attention is on the tiger prison, Meng Jin is indeed a flaw.
"Mengjin can indeed go to Luoyang, but the water level in Mengjin is too shallow, and our ship is afraid that it will pass... Okura! ”
Ma Qiang's eyes lit up.
As mentioned earlier, the reason why Aocang is so important and has become a place for grain and grass hoarding is because when the Yellow River reaches here, the depth will change greatly, and the boat must be changed.
The others didn't have ships, but Ma Qiang, who had passed through Huaxiong and got all of Aocang, actually captured a lot of ships.
These flat-bottomed boats can be used in the Mengjin area.
"Siege the city, no cavalry is needed, now that Yuan Shao and the others have not arrived, immediately let Zilong and others make a detour to Mengjin, and order the navy to come to Aocang to take over the boat, and go to Mengjin to prepare to respond!"
Ma Qiang immediately made a plan, and then said, "If it really doesn't work, then use the air force."
If it doesn't work, just use gunpowder! ”
- Two days later
Li Ru returned to the Tiger Prison Pass with a team of soldiers and horses.
Guo Yan, Lu Bu and others came to Xiguanmen and sent troops to greet them, and Dong Zhuo sat in a chariot and came to Hujiao Pass with reinforcements.
"Why did the Master come in person? Doesn't Luoyang need a master to be in charge? Guo Yan took the reins from the sergeant's hand and asked as he led the carriage for Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "If I'm in Luoyang, some things won't be easy to do, so let's hide here!" ”
"Taishi said and laughed, there are more than 100,000 thieves in Kanto, where is it clean."
"Guo Da, you don't understand, this is much cleaner than those messy things in the court."
At this moment, Luoyang City is already in chaos.
Dong Zhuojun attacked everywhere, and all the portals that had money but no official position were broken one after another, even if they had official positions, many Dong Zhuojun who had been robbed of red eyes were killed and looted.
Those celebrities and ministers wanted to find Dong Zhuo to intercede, but they were told that Dong Zhuo had gone to the Tiger Prison to defend against the enemy, and suddenly there was no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the ground, watching his home door being broken and his property being robbed, if it weren't for the family guards, I am afraid that even his wife and daughter would not be able to keep it.
