Volume 2 Chapter 31 The Dispute Between the Brief Accounts of the Wentai Confession

As Sun Jian and Han Dang speculated, the 8,000 troops of the Huangfu Song Department did make a quick attack on Yingchuan, but they were indeed defeated, but these 8,000 soldiers and horses did not even reach the city of Yingchuan, but they were at the foot of Song Mountain, which was less than a hundred miles away from Yangzhai, and led the army of moths and thieves for Bocai to attack and crush.

Such a rout did not even wait for the arrival of the Chinese army that Huangfu Song agreed to support Yingchuan.

In fact, when Zhu Yi gathered the remnants of Sun Jian and returned to Xiangcheng, it was only a day before Huang Fu Song got the news of the defeat of Yingchuan, and then Zhu Yi's defeat in the surprise attack on Yingyang finally made Huang Fu Song, a descendant of Huang Fu Gui, one of the three Ming Dynasty in Liangzhou, fall into infinite contemplation.

Liu Wei, as the highest-ranking "other Sima" among several Simas, sat alongside the cavalry commander Chun Yuqiong under the left middle lang general Huangfu Song and the right middle lang general Zhu Jun.

"I'm going to fight Nanton." After Zhu Yi, Sun Jian and other generals who had a frontal conflict with Bocai recounted the battle, Liu Wei said quietly.

"Your Highness is going to fight Nanton?" Huangfu Song and Zhu Yi were stunned when they heard this, and they were silent for a long time before they asked in unison.

"Not bad." Liu Wei nodded, and said with a smile: "Fengxian has not returned to the camp yet, according to Tang Zifeng and Sun Sima, most of them are on the way to help Sun Sima, because they met the defeated army of Yingyang, and intended to assemble, so they went all the way to the east. ”

As soon as the words fell, he heard a sneer and said, "Your Highness, is this going to find people or to suppress the Nanton Moth Thief?" The military affairs are related to the life and death of thousands of soldiers, is it a child's play? ”

Liu Wei saw that the person who spoke was the Wuchao wine fairy Chun Yuqiong, and couldn't help but roll his eyes: "If Chun Yuduwei hadn't been so ruthless, so that Tang Zifeng would have injured his muscles and bones, and this time he captured Nanton, I really wouldn't have to look for Fengxian." “

Chun Yuqiong snorted coldly, just about to distinguish, but didn't want to preempt the words for Huangfu Song: "Why does Your Highness want to capture Nanton? ”

Liu Wei naturally ignored Chun Yuqiong anymore, and said to Huangfu Song: "I am a general under the command of the second duke, although I am not as weak as the crown, the second duke does not need to be called by His Royal Highness, and he calls the child by his name." ”

Huangfu Song and Zhu Yi returned the salute together, saying that they didn't dare, but they heard Liu Wei continue: "I want to capture Nanton, but in fact, I haven't been planning for a long time, but I just heard Sun Sima's words and made a temporary decision. ”

The prince is smart, he praised Luoyang as early as a few years ago, and he himself talked with Huangfu Song, Zhu Yi, and Lu Zhi in front of the emperor about his views on the Taiping Dao rebellion.

However, the attitude of other generals in the army towards this prince is very different, and the representative figure is Chun Yuqiong, after all, what kind of vision and strategy can a child who is not yet ten years old have? Even with the double affirmation of Huangfu Song and Zhu Yi, these people all unanimously thought that it was just the identity of Liu Weichang's prince.

Therefore, when Liu Wei wanted to say what he was thinking about, several lieutenants and Sima led by Chun Yuqiong also showed disdain.

Liu Wei was a person who never cared about other people's eyes, so he came to Sun Jian's side and asked with a smile: "Sun Sima, as you said, there are 20,000 reinforcements in the east and south directions of the moth thief?" ”

Seeing that Liu Wei had arrived, Sun Jian no longer dared to kneel on his seat, so he hurriedly got up and bowed and said: "Yes, the last general will personally rush to kill, and the moth thieves I saw stretched for three or five miles from east to west, saying that there were 20,000 people, but I am afraid that there will be less." ”

Liu Wei nodded, and then turned his head to Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun and said, "Second Duke, this is the reason why I want to capture Nanton." ”

"What do you mean?" Huangfu Song and Zhu Yi asked in unison.

"In any case, Nanton allocated more than 10,000 moth thieves, that's the truth." Liu Wei replied carefully: "Yingchuan County is a vast land, and although Bocai is the commander of the middle canal, looking at the current form, I know that there must be more than one moth thief under his command, so the number of thieves must be tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands. ”

When everyone heard this, they all nodded in unison, and then they only snorted coldly and said: "We have already known this truth, but what does it have to do with attacking Nanton?" ”

Sima of several school captains on his side, heard Chun Yuqiong's words, and they also echoed it.

Liu Wei still ignored it, and continued to speak: "Yingchuan and Yingyang are each other's horns, connecting the Tiger Prison Pass to the north, strangling the Xuanyuan Pass to the south, and implicating Songgao (Songshan) Yingshui in the east and west. As for Nanton is relatively far away, Cai County is very poor and weak, I think that the number of moths and thieves in these two cities must be less than Yingchuan Yingyang, and as Sun Sima said, the two cities have more than 20,000 thieves rushing to help Yingyang Yingchuan, so the two cities must be empty, so I want to ask the second duke to give an order, allow me to attack Nanton, and frustrate the enemy's spirit. ”

Huangfu Song and Zhu Yi nodded again and again when they heard this, even Chun Yuqiong no longer spoke out against it, Nanton and Cai County were empty, so it should really be a more accurate inference, since the pacification of the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Yingchuan County is the task to be completed as a Zhonglang general, then whether it is Nanton, or Cai County, sooner or later it will be recovered, not to mention that the imposing Han army led by Huangfu Song was defeated in the first battle of Xuanyuan Pass, if you want to continue to attack Yingyang Yingchuan, how can you be completely sure?

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Yi spoke first: "If we capture Nanton, our army will go south and then gain Cai County, so that we can surround Bocai in the two cities of Yingchuan and Yingyang and fight for trapped beasts." ”

"If the moth thief can't connect the southeast, but goes north to attack Xuxian (Xuchang) and Changshe, and enter the Tiger Prison, what should I do?" Sun Jian frowned deeply and suddenly asked.

"Not long ago, Cao Mengde, the commander of the cavalry, has written to me, these days, you will be able to get to Dexu County, he will be stationed in Changshe one day, it is expected that the wave of talents is powerful, but with the armament of moths, it is not easy to forcibly attack the city." When Huangfu Song heard this, he replied, and then turned his head to look at Liu Wei and asked: "Attacking Nanton is an excellent strategy, but why should the person who leads the army be His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness has a thousand gold and noble body, if there is the slightest mistake, the minister can not afford it." ”

Hearing this, Sun Jian hurriedly flashed out and knelt down to ask for help: "To attack Nanton, there will only be 2,000 people in the end!" ”

Seeing this, Chun Yuqiong also got up and bowed to Huangfu Song and said: "Huangfu Gong and I have 1,500 soldiers, and within ten days, we will settle Nanton." ”

"Jian only needs a thousand people in the headquarters, if you can't take Nanton within five days, you will be willing to accept military law!"

Huangfu Song and Zhu Yi both felt that the two generals under their command were courageous and extraordinary, and they were also proud and happy, so there was no need to speak, but at this time, Liu Wei waved his hand again and again, and said: "As Huangfu Gong said, the person who led the army to attack Nanton can only be me." ”

After speaking, Liu Wei also knelt down and bowed to Huangfu Song and said: "The last general only needs to lead the three hundred tiger warriors under his command, and if he can touch Fengxian on the way, he may be able to take Nanton." ”

Chun Yuqiong snorted coldly and asked, "What if you can't touch the Nine Plains Cheap Seed?" ”

"Then rely on Chun Yu Duwei to ride north, attack and kill Bocai in one fell swoop, and save my life." Chun Yu Qiong humiliated and Lu Bu, Liu Wei has long been accustomed to it these days, so instead of being angry, he talked and laughed with him.

Chun Yuqiong was just about to say it, but he preemptively said for Huangfu Song: "Your Highness, but you want to lure Bo Cai with your body? ”

Liu Weiwu knelt on his knees, just straightened up, nodded with a smile, and said: "Sun Sima has already spoken, and in the eyes of Nabo Cai, there are only four people who have entered his eyes. ”

"Which four?" Chun Yuqiong turned her head and asked.

"It's Your Majesty, the Emperor Fu, Zhu Gong and Xiao'er." Liu Wei smiled calmly: "Xing Bocai still doesn't recognize Chun Yu Duwei, so he doesn't have the name of Duwei." ”

When Chun Yuqiong heard this, her face turned red with anger, but she didn't dare to attack.

Zhu Yi twisted his beard and his head more than once: "Your Highness's words reminded me, the day before yesterday, Bo called my name on Yingyang City, and it turned out that I knew that I was going to attack Yingyang." ”

Liu Wei said: "Not only that, Bocai's reckless army intercepted and killed the front army of Huangfu Gong at the foot of Songgao Mountain, thinking that Huangfu Gong was among them, and the two dukes were famous generals in the world. As for wanting to capture Xiao'er, it's just because my status as a prince is really a great achievement for others, and it is different from the second duke. ”

Huangfu Song and Zhu Yi looked at each other and smiled, shook their heads helplessly and sighed: "Against an unknown person like Bocai, two battles and two defeats, not to mention that he is famous all over the world, the two of us are going to lose face first." ”

Liu Wei shook his head again and again, and said with a smile: "The soldiers are treacherous, the number of victories and defeats is really a common thing, and although the second duke is defeated, it has not hurt the foundation of our army. ”

Huangfu Song bowed his head again and again, hurriedly beckoned Liu Wei to get up, and said with a smile: "Your Highness's plan is really a clever plan, but if you are in danger, you will only be accompanied by three hundred tiger warriors, and it is inevitable that there will be a difference. ”

When Chun Yuqiong heard this, she was suddenly angry, smiled happily, and wanted to bow down and thank you. I don't want Liu Wei to shake his head and smile: "Although Captain Chun Yu is a bear general in the world, but he has a misunderstanding with my Zuojun Sima, I am afraid that if he meets the truth one day, it will inevitably be a disaster, so it is better to ask Sun Sima to bring a thousand people from his headquarters to attack Nanton with me." ”

"It's so good, Your Highness is thoughtful, so be it." Before Huangfu Song and Chun Yuqiong could react, Zhu Yi immediately agreed.

Having the promise of the right Zhonglang general, Chun Yuqiong and Huangfu Song can't say anything, not to mention that Sun Jian is brave and strong, bold and careful, and it is indeed good to protect Liu Wen's safety, but Sun Jian, who has been worried for a long time, heard such a decision, jumped up in surprise, patted his chest and drank: "With my Sun Wentai here, His Royal Highness will be foolproof." ”
