Chapter 347: Zhang Yang's Situation
Zhang Jizheng had this intention, and he didn't want to wait for the scout to report, saying that Yuan Tan's army was also gradually approaching, and it was only less than a day's journey away from our department.
The generals were surprised, this Yuan Tan was really menacing, and their momentum not only wanted to repel the Xinxi Liang army, but also wanted to annihilate them all, and even counterattack Taiyuan County.
Zhang Ji ordered, "In this case, we will let them stay farther away from Huguan, and the whole army will retreat to Gu County one after another." ”
Yuan Tan used his troops bravely, and when he learned that Yan Liang and Zhang were fighting, and the latter had more troops than Yan Liang, he immediately led his troops to follow, not giving the opponent a chance to exploit loopholes.
Such an action was supported by Wen Chou, Jiang Yiqu and others, and Yan Liang was also grateful to Yuan Tan for his courage to fight and dare to rush after hearing about it.
In addition to annihilating the enemy and making meritorious contributions, Yuan Tan also had the consideration of winning people's hearts.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou have a lot of weight in the army, and if they can get the recognition and support of the two of them, then he will be one step closer to the position of heir.
This trick works well, and the big and small military officials in the army feel that Yuan Tan is a reliable choice, and he sometimes indulges military discipline, and he can also make everyone happy.
Xin Ping and others were also happy when they saw this, and they were about to win a big victory, and when the time came, they pretended to enter Taiyuan, and in fact, they would accept it when they saw it, so as to maximize their benefits. That's what an auxiliary like him should do.
It's a pity that they are fighting for power and profit, which is enough to abuse children, but playing like this in the war is also asking for their own destruction.
Guyuan County, Shangdang County, that is, Qinyuan County, Changzhi, Shanxi Province in later generations.
It is located on the west side of Shangdang County, which is the intersection of the southeast of Jin, the south of Jin, and the middle of Jin.
Because it is very close to Xiangling, Yang County, and Yongan counties in Hedong County, which are under the jurisdiction of the Xinxi Liang Army, it was abandoned by Zhang Yang as early as half a year ago.
Tong Yuan looked at the trees in the mountains and saw that they had lost their leaves, this was the winter in the northern Jin soil.
Huge rocks and canyons, north winds, dead woods, and towering blue skies and majestic mountains form an artistic conception of incomparably empty and a drop in the ocean.
Will this be the case in the Hereafter?
Absolutely, but much less than in this period
Jia Kui said on the side, "My lord, more than 30 miles west of here is Dahuo Mountain, last time I crossed this mountain with General Hu Lang'er and completed the attack around the rear. ”
Tong Yuan also remembered that time, and said, "Yes, it was winter at that time, and spring will come, and your detour will start a good year of the year." This time, it should be able to draw a happy end to the year. ”
Tong Yuan looked at Jia Kui, and then at Xu Huang not far away, thinking that these two people were both top talents in Hedong.
One of them is from Xiangling, the other is from Yangxian County, their hometown has undergone earth-shaking changes over the years, not only got rid of the threat of the Xiongnu and Baibo, but also the land is fertile, the fruit trees are shady, and the cattle and sheep are everywhere.
Now, a number of schools, workshops, and bazaars have been built, and those who excel in the tuntian can experience this change first, and those who have military merits, model workers, and are willing to go to distant places can also become officials.
However, do these two people have the same opinion about Tuntian?
He's also watching interesting things.
The army camped along Qinshui, so that under the transfer of Pei Ji and Sun Zi, food supplies and military supplies could be transported from the upstream Taiyuan Basin to this place before the winter was completely completed, so as to avoid the relatively inefficient transfer of a large number of cattle and horses in the rugged mountain roads.
Tong Yuan was surrounded by Xu Huang, Yu Xuan, Jia Kui, Yang Fu, etc., but the soldiers were 2,000 people mainly from the 11th Brigade, and the rest of the logistics and engineering troops were only a few hundred.
"Report! The contact over there is normal, but there are Zhang Yang's lineage, Xuzhou soldiers and Xiliang army, and he is not easy to do. ”
When Yu Poison heard the news, he said: "In the past few months, Su Gu and Wei Baitu have always maintained secret contact with our army, and he is also a first-class combat force in the original Black Mountain Army, can't he even make a statement?" ”
Although Yang Fu is a newcomer, he has played the role of a former enemy division in the past few months, and has already grasped the current strategic situation.
He said: "According to the information that came from Zhenggu before, Zhang Yang was exiled, once held hostage by Yu Fuluo, and isolated by the Hanoi Shi clan, Yuan Shao also did not save him when he saw death, and his descendants were only a few hundred, so there is no need to worry. ”
"General Yang Chou led the Xuzhou guest soldiers, and they were the strongest combat force under Zhang Yang. But he, like Zheng Gu, has long had the idea of breaking away from Zhang Yang, but Zheng Gu has not yet figured out which side he may fall. ”
Speaking of this, Yang Fu paused for a moment, and said in an accentuated tone: "It is not Zhang Yang and Yang Chou who really deter the Zhenggu Righteous Army, but the last force. ”
Yu Poison answered: "I know this, it was the defeat of Guo Yan's army who defected to Zhang Yang the year before last, and I heard that the leader was a general named Cui Yong of the Xiliang Army. ”
"That's right, this is the man."
Tong Yuan remembered that when he had just arrived in Chang'an and besieged Wang Yun and Lu Bu, this Cui Yong came to provoke. His mace was quite famous in the Xiliang army, but in front of Dong Bai, he was easily defeated.
He concluded: "According to intelligence, this Cui Yong had 2,000 Xiliang troops, and they were desperate after Guo Yan's death, so they simply crossed the river and defected to Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang used Cui Yong's martial arts and military strength to suppress Yang Chou and Zhenggu, and temporarily maintained internal rule. ”
"Therefore, this time, our army will focus on attacking Zhang Yang and Cui Yong this time, and then control the eldest son and Tunliu in the center of Shangdang County in one fell swoop, so that Yuan Tan can't care about each other!"
Zheng Gu, he was ready to abandon Zhang Yang and go to Tong Yuan, but he was left by Zhang Yang's side for four years, just for this time.
Receiving the signal from Zhang Ji's side that Yuan Tan was close to the northwest mountainous area of Shangdang County, Tong Yuan raised the flag and directly pounced on Changzi County in the south of Shangdang County.
Zhang Yang heard that there were only 2,000 soldiers and horses attacking, and they were still led by Tong Yuan and Yu Poison, so he was a little swollen and moved.
In the past six months, he has been pressed and beaten by Tong Yuan with his size advantage, and he doesn't know how aggrieved he is in the city.
Looking back at the past, he was also a good man who called Lu Bu a brother, but later he was taken hostage by the Huns Yufu Luo and thrown into face. Later, he relied on Yuan Shao and Cao Cao to sustain himself.
Immediately afterwards, the Xiliang Army, a child who came out, besieged him in order to save the poison. In the end, it turned out that he was nothing more than an outcast, and even the scholars of Hanoi were eager to get rid of him.
He finally gathered Cui Yong's two thousand Xiliang warriors, and returned to the familiar Shangdang, once he wanted to rob the local scholars Chen and Feng, after all, the scholars in the Shangdang Mountains were weaker than the Hanoi families.
As a result, Chang Lin, a scholar who came to Hanoi to take refuge, united with the Chen Feng family, mobilized the population, launched a public opinion offensive, and forced Zhang Yang to throw himself into a rat trap, and it took half a year to take down these scholars and docks.
