223 So, Sun Jian won
The next day, Guo Peng held a meeting.
He announced to his subordinates the result of his handing over Li Ru to Yuan Shu for disposal, and explained the necessity of it.
Hearing this, the subordinates all felt very regretful.
The two brothers, Bao Xin and Bao Tao, hated it even more.
"It's not good to help the world, but it's a first-class good hand to drag your feet!"
Bao Tao's face was full of indignation: "The lord was humiliated in front, but they were eating, drinking and having fun in sour dates, but they didn't enter the army, did they come to crusade against Dong Zhuo, or did they go to eat, drink and have fun?" ”
Bao Tao's words were unanimously endorsed by the officers and officials present, and everyone resonated strongly.
Guo Peng stopped their resonance.
"At present, the big enemy is important, the overall situation is important, in this case, don't say it anymore, everyone gathers together for a goal, and we should work together."
As soon as Guo Peng said this, they stopped talking, but the indignation in their hearts and the thoughts of complaining for Guo Peng became even stronger.
And Yuan Shu was very pleasant.
Seeing Guo Peng sending Li Ru and reading Guo Peng's handwritten letter, Yuan Shu immediately understood that he still had a lot of weight in Guo Peng's heart, and Guo Peng still stood with him.
Originally, I heard that Guo Peng had won his first victory, and he was about to hit Luoyang, Yuan Shu was still a little envious and jealous in his heart, but now when he saw it, this emotion suddenly disappeared into invisibility, and he was very satisfied with Guo Peng.
So Yuan Shu immediately announced that a sacrifice would be held, sacrificing King Hongnong as a courtier of the Han family, beheading Li Ru on the spot, announcing to the world, and announcing that he would immediately march to Luoyang.
At Sun Jian's suggestion, Yuan Shu decided to take Sun Jian as the main force and attack Luoyang in the direction of Yangren and Dagu, and planned Guo Peng's action to attack Luoyang, attacking from both sides to deter Dong Zhuo.
On the other side, Dong Zhuo also learned about Guo Peng's behavior.
tore up the edict, sent Li Ru to Yuan Shu to be beheaded, denounced himself as "called Han Xiang, but he is actually a Han thief", and threatened to exterminate his three clans before he would give up.
The monstrous anger was followed by deep worry.
He has seen Guo Peng's combat effectiveness, and if he continues to fight, can he really win?
After thinking about it, Dong Zhuo still felt that he wanted to have a fight with Guo Peng.
His army has a large number of troops, the logistics base is also stable, and he still has enough combat effectiveness, so there is no need to be afraid of Guo Peng, who has only 30,000 troops
Then, Dong Zhuo discovered that Yuan Shu in the south also began to move, and sent people to attack the south of Luoyang, and the main general was still the Sun Jian who had been very bad with him at the beginning.
Dong Zhuo remembered the grievances with Sun Jian at the beginning, as well as the matter that Guo Peng mediated for them, and only felt ridiculous.
He took Zhonglang general Hu Zhen as the governor, commanded Lu Bu, Huaxiong and other captains, and raised 10,000 troops to rush to Yangren to exterminate Sun Jian.
Before sending troops, Dong Zhuo also instructed Hu Zhen to be careful with Guo Peng, as he told Dong Yue and Niu Fu to be careful, and asked Hu Zhen to be more careful.
Dong Zhuo said that Sun Jian is a general and has a strong ability to command troops, so don't despise him.
Hu Zhen took the order and left.
The two armies were sent out, Dong Zhuo began to worry that if either of the two armies failed, he would be forced to fight, and if he could not win the battle with the most elite Xiliang Iron Cavalry Legion, he would have to consider leaving Luoyang and going to Chang'an.
It's time to leave a back road.
Dong Zhuo is not stupid, looking at this posture, as long as he loses again, he will definitely go to Chang'an to avoid the edge, and if he doesn't leave a back road at this time, when will he leave a back road?
So Dong Zhuo released Xu Rong, and after reprimanding Xu Rong, he restored him to the position of lieutenant general, and ordered him to lead his troops to Mianchi and prepare for defensive operations in Mianchi.
In case he retreats from Luoyang, Xu Rong can immediately go up to defend and let him withdraw safely.
"The defeat in this battle has made me extremely passive, I hope you don't let me down again."
Dong Zhuo sternly warned Xu Rong, Xu Rong knelt on the ground and trembled to receive the order, and then carefully left the Xiangguo Mansion, and only breathed a long sigh of relief after leaving for a long time.
Dong Zhuo's side was completely prepared.
On the other side, Guo Peng and Sun Jian had already sent troops, Guo Peng led the army from Xingyang to the revolving gate pass, and Sun Jian led the army from Luyang to enter the Yangren.
Guo Peng's march was not as fast as Sun Jian's, Sun Jian knew that Guo Peng had achieved the first success, and he was eager to fight, so he led his troops to advance quickly, and arrived in Yangren in mid-September.
At this time, the 10,000 horses of Hu Zhen's department sent by Dong Zhuo had just arrived in Guangcheng, where they gathered dozens of miles.
Hu Zhen is a person who is anxious, speaks impatiently, doesn't know how to twist and turn, and is a typical rough character.
Before the battle, he saw the lazy and lazy appearance of his subordinates, and he was very dissatisfied, and threatened, "This time, when you go, you should cut off a green ribbon, and the troops will be neatly disciplined."
Qingshou refers to Lu Bu and others, the army led by Hu Zhen this time is basically a state soldier led by Lu Bu and others, and there are many old departments of the original Ding Yuan, and Hu Zhen is not a person all the way.
In addition, Hu Zhen has always been ridiculed by the people of Bingzhou, how can the soldiers of Bingzhou tolerate Hu Zhen using their merits to make him a general?
So Lu Bu and the others decided to kill people with a knife, get rid of Hu Zhen with Sun Jian's hand, and then they defeated Sun Jian and won the victory, so that Lu Bu could replace Hu Zhen's position.
Although Dong Zhuo more or less fulfilled his promise and gave Lu Bu a high status and trust, in terms of the power to command the troops, Lu Bu was still ranked second.
Lu Bu and Li Dao and Guo Yan are all lieutenants of the same grade, while Xu Rong, Dong Yue, and Hu Zhen are all Zhonglang generals, which is one grade higher than them.
Lu Bu felt that he could not only get such a position with his ability, and he was dissatisfied with his current position, so he decided to do something to change the situation.
When Hu Zhen led the army to Guangcheng, it was already early, and according to Dong Zhuo's deployment in advance, he must have set up camp and rested before going to battle.
But at this time, the Sentinels of Bingzhou, who had been given the responsibility of sentry cavalry, said that Sun Jian's soldiers and horses in Yangren City had fled.
So Lu Bu and the others immediately instigated Hu Zhen to chase after him, otherwise they would not be able to make meritorious contributions.
Hu Zhen is also a yellow fish brain, and he didn't think carefully about sending someone to verify, and when he heard that there was no time, he immediately rushed to Yangren with Liangzhou soldiers.
Lu Bu and the others followed behind slowly, deliberately distancing themselves from Hu Zhen.
When Hu Zhen led his troops all the way to the city of Yangren, and was stunned to find that there were strict guards in the city, he realized that the information was wrong and was very annoyed, but the situation reached this point, and he couldn't change the order, so he could only let the soldiers rest on the spot.
Hu Zhen found Lu Bu and others and wanted to reprimand them, they pushed themselves cleanly, and pushed the fault on Hu Zhen himself, Hu Zhen was so angry that he was about to draw his sword and kill Lu Bu on the spot, but he was persuaded by his subordinates and did not move.
However, this also made Lu Bu and others hate Hu Zhen even more, and their mood to kill him became more intense.
So, at night, when the soldiers were resting, Lu Bu arranged for the soldiers to carry torches and pretend to be Sun Jianjun's sneak attack, spreading rumors everywhere that Sun Jianjun was coming to sneak attack, causing the whole army to be greatly confused and directly bombing the camp.
Sun Jian heard that there was a disturbance in Dong Zhuo's army that came to attack outside the city, so he climbed to the top of the city and took a look, yo, isn't this a bombing camp?
This is definitely not a ploy!
Brothers, Kaesong, fuck it!
So Sun Jian won the battle of the Yangren.
