Three Kingdoms Chapter 60 Falling into the Ground
Xu You said slowly, since they can't change the military order, then they will change themselves. They can change the formation and disperse the soldiers one by one, thus relieving the sanitary conditions in the army and preventing further losses.
"What Xu Junshi said is not a solution, but in this case, what about the grain and grass in our army?" Captain Chen thought about it, when the army marches and fights, the grain and grass go first, and if the army is arranged in this way, the queue is too long, and the grain and grass are the most critical issues.
"Captain Chen's concerns are indeed extremely important, and there are two solutions to the grain and grass.
The first is to distribute it evenly according to each army, but in this case, it is easy to cause the uneven situation of the food eaten by each army, and this distribution is more anti-locked, and disputes may arise in the army in the later stage.
The second method is to concentrate on hoarding grain and grass, and it is recommended to arrange a position in the middle of the array, and each army should send someone to claim it every day, but in this case, the disadvantage is that most people are a little far away from the grain and grass, and if the enemy attacks the grain and grass, I am afraid that we will be in a more difficult predicament. Xu You slowly analyzed to everyone.
"Uh...... According to Xu Junshi's meaning, it should be inclined to the second method! Liu Jianjun listened to Xu You's words and couldn't help but nod.
"Well, after all, everyone knows that this battle is almost impossible to fight, we just need to hold out until the general returns." Xu You nodded, in fact, everyone also knew that this battle was meaningless at all, it was just used to support Yuan Shao, and it was impossible for the army of Luoyang City to take the lead in attacking them, in this way, it was not a good thing for everyone in the palace of Luoyang City.
"In that case, I agree with Xu Junshi's method, what does Captain Chen think?" Liu Jianjun nodded and agreed.
"I agree." The same is true for Captain Chen.
"In that case, as soon as the rain stops, we will take action."
"Yes!"
Now that there is a solution, everyone's hearts are gradually letting go of the heavy heart, after all, this is much better than being like a headless fly before.
......
This sudden heavy rain affected the entire Yuan Shao army, and also affected many officials of the Han Dynasty.
For all officials, they are very unhappy with this kind of weather, because even if there is any natural disaster, heavy rain, snowstorm, hail and earthquake, they have to go to the court.
In ancient times, civil and military officials were still very hard. If nothing else, let's take the last dynasty as an example, it is simply "getting up earlier than the chicken". This is because, in ancient times, the time of the upper dynasty was generally very early, about five to seven o'clock in the morning.
And more importantly, all officials can't be late for a minute, and their punishment for being late is not to deduct some wages like in modern times, but to directly attack the officials personally, and beat your ass to the ground.
At that time, in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial family was in decline, the power of the Han Dynasty was declining, and some officials with slightly higher power were late for a while, and if it was an important minister like Taifu Yuan Kui, it would be okay if he didn't come once in a while, and only needed to talk to the emperor.
Therefore, now the court is naturally not as strict as before, and the time of the court has been postponed for a long time.
But today's dynasty is different from usual. Because Yuan Shao came, Yuan Shao was named a general before, although he was not as good as the original general He Jin, but he was also a general with a large number of military horses in his hands.
In fact, if Yuan Shao came to Luoyang to meet in ordinary times, everyone would not necessarily attach such importance to it, but at this time, everyone knew that the east gate of Luoyang City was there, and Yuan Shao's army was stationed there at the moment, so they didn't have to care about Yuan Shao, but no one dared to ignore these seven thousand Yuan Shao's army.
At this time, inside the main hall of the palace.
The eldest prince Liu Wei sat on the golden dragon chair as usual, his expression was calm at the moment, and the joy that could not be concealed made him look even more immature and young.
Empress He on the side was slightly more able to control her expression than the eldest prince Liu Wei, and there was no color on her exquisite face at the moment, and she couldn't tell whether she was happy or nervous.
And under the golden dragon chair, all the courtiers stood tremblingly, not daring to make any slight movements, as if they were sculptures.
And Yuan Shao was in it at this time, he was still wearing a suit of armor at this time, like a general who had returned triumphantly after a bloody battle.
Yuan Shao occasionally glanced at Empress He, who was sitting next to the eldest prince Liu Wei, and his heart couldn't help but tremble slightly. He immediately stepped forward, knelt down in front of the eldest prince Liu Wei, and arched his hand: "Minister Yuan Shao came to Luoyang from Hebei to meet His Royal Highness the Great Prince, and wish His Royal Highness the Great Prince a thousand generations." ”
"Hehehe...... General, please get up. The eldest prince Liu Wei smiled, his face couldn't help but show great joy, after all, he is still relatively young now, naturally not like Taifu Yuan Kui, who has experienced many years of old muscles, he said: "The general is tired all the way, very hard!" ”
Yuan Shao slowly stood up and said with a serious face: "The ministers have never worked hard to train military horses for the Han Dynasty, and the hard work is those soldiers who guard the border of my Han Dynasty and fight bloodily for my Han Dynasty. ”
"General Yuan is really righteous and refuses to take credit, he is really a model for my Han general!" At this time, Dong Zhuo on the side opened his mouth and praised.
"Hahaha...... Dong Xiangguo is right, my Han can have a general like a general, which is really like a tiger. The eldest prince Liu Wei also agreed.
Hearing this, Yuan Shao was also comfortable when he heard this, and couldn't help but secretly turn his head to look at the Queen He who was still sitting in danger at the moment. Then he said to the eldest prince: "His Royal Highness the Great Prince, the minister came with the army this time, and originally wanted His Royal Highness the Great Prince to review how powerful and majestic the soldiers of my Han Dynasty are, but it is a pity that today's rainstorm, so the minister can't help but have some regrets in his heart." ”
Yuan Shao said this, naturally wanting to dispel the other courtiers who thought that he Yuan Shao came to Luoyang City with a large number of military horses, and he was menacing.
Of course, although he said this, others couldn't help but have some disdain in their hearts, who didn't know that he came to Luoyang City just to suppress the former Zhongchang servant Zhang Rang.
However, although everyone understands it in their hearts, it is difficult to say, after all, who dares to provoke Yuan Shao now.
The only thing that has some doubts in my heart is Jinyang Hou Zhangyang. After Zhang Yang heard the news of the death of Zhang Rang, a regular servant in the middle yesterday, he regretted it in his heart, but the matter had come to this point, and he had no choice but to accept his fate. But fortunately, he thought that Dong Zhuo was still with him, and it was always the prince Liu Xie who supported him.
And now seeing that Dong Zhuo was constantly catering to the eldest prince Liu Wei and Yuan Shao, he suddenly had some doubts in his heart, could it be that Dong Zhuo was ready to take refuge in the enemy after the death of Zhang Rang?
But at this time, although Jin Yanghou was puzzled in his heart, he didn't say much, after all, now that the general trend has gone, he can only wait and see what happens.
"Hehehe...... It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, I believe that the general, the general is wise and powerful, and the soldiers under the command of Xiangbi are also brave and good at fighting. The eldest prince Liu Wei smiled, he didn't care much about this.
"His Royal Highness the Great Prince, the minister came to Luoyang this time, in fact, there is one more matter, discuss it with His Royal Highness and the courtiers." Yuan Shao stared at the eldest prince intently, and said unhurriedly.
"Oh? The Great General, though, come and listen. When the eldest prince Liu Wei heard this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he didn't know how happy he was, because before he went to court today, he had already discussed with Yuan Shao, and he must confirm the enthronement today.
"Prince Xie." Yuan Shao continued: "Now that the Han world is declining day by day, the state pastors are becoming more and more powerful, and they have gradually formed their own forces, and the Nanzhong clan has also established its own army and has its own army, plus there was the Yellow Turban Rebellion first, and now there is the Liangzhou Rebellion, and the war in Liangzhou has been stagnant at this time. Such a scene is really unbearable for my Han Dynasty!
However, in the Hebei area, I have heard someone say that a country cannot be without a king for a day, and the Han Dynasty is now like this, so that the soldiers in Liangzhou do not know who they are loyal to, and the same is true of many forces of the Han Dynasty.
And now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still young, and there is no one to assist him, and His Royal Highness the Great Prince, since the death of the first emperor, you have personally managed the government and handled everything so properly, it is really a trip of a Ming monarch.
Therefore, the minister hereby implores His Royal Highness the Great Prince to ascend the throne as soon as possible, inherit the throne, lead the ministers of all states in the world, and supervise the war in Liangzhou. ”
Yuan Shao talked eloquently, but the other courtiers were silent, because they all knew that this matter would come sooner or later, after all, now that Zhang Rang, the regular servant, was dead, basically no one could compete with the party of the eldest prince Liu Bian.
What's more, this matter was raised by Yuan Shao, and there are still 7,000 troops stationed at the east gate, who would dare to make a mistake in front of him.
However, Jin Yang Hou Zhang Yang, whose face was slightly moved, trembled in his heart, he knew that at this time, Yuan Shao and others were taking advantage of the death of Zhang Rang, the middle servant, to directly support the eldest prince Liu Wei to ascend the throne and inherit the throne.
Although the eldest prince was very happy, he did not directly express that he wanted to be the emperor, so he asked the ministers below: "The general analyzes the situation of my Han Dynasty, and there is some truth, but now after all, I am only taking the place of my younger brother in the government, if I behave like this, I am afraid that it is inappropriate, I don't know what the other ministers think?" ”
Hearing this, he felt the immature gaze of the eldest prince Liu Wei swept over, except for Taifu Yuan Kui, Dong Zhuoyi and others, the other courtiers were trembling, and they didn't know how to answer at this time, especially the officials who had supported the crown prince Liu Xie before, and their faces showed a touch of confusion.
