Volume 2 The Death of the Yellow Turban Chapter 61 A Thousand Miles to Help

A brawl that occurred in the army quickly subsided, and Lu Zhi did not make any judgment on this, but ordered Dong Zhuo's department to be stationed in Nanzhai and Nanying's department to be stationed in Beizhai to isolate the two from afar.

Dong Zhuo, who had a blue nose and swollen eyes, left the Chinese army in embarrassment, and before leaving, although he looked at Nanying with resentment, he could not hide a trace of fear. In the face of a lawless and reckless madman, who can not be afraid of three points? But Dong Zhuo also sneered in his heart, wait and see, as soon as the edict of the Son of Heaven arrives, it will be enough to wipe out the three clans with the great crime of your kid beating the angels! Even if you have He Jin and Zhang Rang to support you, you can't escape prison.

As for Zuo Feng, who played an important role in this farce, he ran faster than Dong Zhuo, but the dignified angel was swollen in the face by a general in the army, isn't this a joke in the world? Once the rumor goes out, it will be lost to the royal prestige and the face of the Son of Heaven, don't care who hit it, the first unlucky person must be him Zuo Feng, when will he not run at this time?

The edict of the Son of Heaven was soon conveyed again, but the result made everyone's jaws drop. The wording of the edict was extremely harsh, and several of the main parties were reprimanded, and corresponding punishments were made: the main general Lu Zhi was not strict in governing the army, and even ordered a private fight in the army, and was fined for half a year to set an example; Breaking the capture of the general Dong Zhuo, Yingyang general Nanying, Fang Mu Shengen did not want to repay, with a little grudge and openly private, resulting in a group of thieves and soldiers, each demoted one level to see the after-effects, if there is a recidivism, it will not be spared, and because Liangzhou is resting and slaughtering everyone, it seems that there is a heart of disobedience, Dong Zhuo has been stationed in Xiliang for a long time, familiar with border affairs, and immediately returned to the imperial capital, and had another appointment.

It is worth mentioning that the angel who came to issue the edict also mentioned another announcement at the end, Xiaohuangmen Zuofeng neglected his duty and openly solicited bribes, which caused the Son of Heaven to be angry, and he has now been sent to the Beisi Prison and handed over to the council for trial and conviction.

The edict sprinkled nearly a thousand words, but it did not mention the crime of Nanying beating the angels, and even the generals who participated in the fight on both sides did not do any punishment, and everyone looked at each other and was dumbfounded.

Only Dong Zhuo's face was finally as pale as earth, knowing that this time he had kicked the iron plate and was defeated. Although this edict seems to be impartial and impartial, the mystery is intriguing. Dong Zhuo was originally the Dongzhong Lang general, this demotion is still in place, but Nanying was promoted by the captain of the school by two levels, even if he is demoted by one level, it is still a smooth progress. What shocked Dong Zhuo the most was that not only was Lu Zhi not dismissed, but he was squeezed out of the Northern Route Army and lost the last opportunity to make contributions. And Zuo Feng's fate made him even more frightened, can this be understood as the fact that the Son of Heaven has begun to suppress the people of the Empress Dowager Dong's faction?

Looking at Dong Zhuo's back with hatred, not only Nanying breathed a sigh of relief, but even Lu Zhi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and when he looked at Nanying again, his expression was even more strange. No wonder this kid dares to act recklessly, it turns out that it is not hot-blooded impulsive, but really fearless!

With the removal of the thorn in the eye, the North Route Army began an unprecedented high-turn operation with the power of a great victory. Although the original 40,000 soldiers and horses were less than 30,000, it was more than enough to besiege the small city of Xiaquyang. 20,000 infantry surrounded the small Xiaquyang, and stepped up all their forces to build siege equipment. Nan Ying led thousands of cavalry to roam the periphery, fighting the stragglers of the Yellow Turban Army, and completely cutting off all communication with the outside world in Xiaquyang.

At the same time, in order to pacify Hebei in a war, Lu Zhi issued an order to all nearby cities that were still under the control of the imperial court, collected all available troops and siege materials, and gathered in the area of Xiaquyang in the shortest possible time.

Five days later, the Han army assembled outside Xiaquyang had reached 45,000, and the siege equipment had been basically completed, ready to launch the final blow to this lonely city at any time.

When Nanying led the army back, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion when he looked at the desolate Xiaquyang City in the distance. Although the Yellow Turban Army will eventually be defeated, it still plays a role in fueling the flames. History, from the moment I came here, was destined to be rewritten! I just don't know, is this change innocuous or painful?

"The last general has seen the rebel general!" Nanying strode into the big tent of the Chinese army and saluted Lu Zhi behind the general's case.

"Ahh It turned out to be Nanying Yang! Lu Zhi casually threw down the book in his hand, got up happily and said, "It's been hard all the way!" ”

"General, please don't call the last general like that!" Nan Ying smiled bitterly, "The last general has been demoted, and he deserves the title of general Nan Ying!" ”

"Aren't you still an eagle? How to call it! Lu Zhi said casually, "Besides, this incident can be regarded as a great favor owed to you, otherwise Dong Zhuo's treacherous plan succeeds, and Ben will have to clean up and get out!" ”

"The general is gracious! You and I are the same enemy! Nanying smiled, "Now, it's that Dong Zhuo who obediently gets out." The last general is really worried, his nose has been crooked by the last general, don't be angry anymore! ”

The two laughed together.

Lu Zhi laughed for a while before he said: "Having said that, Ben Jiang wants to remind Nan Yingyang that he still needs to be cautious and low-key in his actions in the future, and it is not wise to make too many enemies!" ”

Nanying understood that Lu Zhi was indeed thinking about himself, and said respectfully: "Yes!" Remember! ”

He glanced at Lu Zhi, who was smiling, and couldn't help but say, "General, why are you calling the last general back in a hurry?" Could it be that the general changed his mind and still wanted the last general to capture Quyang? ”

"You've got a good idea!" Lu Zhi laughed and said, "The limelight of the Northern Route Army has made you go out alone, do you still want to grab this last feat?" Haven't the other generals poked your backbone in the back? ”

Nanying said embarrassedly: "It's the last general who didn't think about it. Please show me the general! ”

"Just to give you a piece of military information!" Lu Zhi reached out and took a scroll from the case, "It's about the war situation in the east and south, you can see for yourself!" ”

"This!" Nan Ying's face was almost red, "Please don't make fun of the general, the last general is illiterate!" ”

"What?" Lu Zhi flashed a look of disbelief, "Nanying Yang is joking, right?" With your literary style and strategy, how can you not be illiterate! ”

He looked at Nanying's red face, finally believed a little, and couldn't help but smile: "Okay! I'll let Ben tell you about it himself! ”

He put the book back on his desk and said, "This is the general situation! On the eastern battlefield, although the enemy had the advantage in military strength, it was forced by the tactics of our army to attack and harass and advance slowly. However, on the southern battlefield, our army has achieved a decisive advantage, and Zhang Mancheng, who claims to be a divine envoy, was beaten back by General Huangfu and is retreating from Nanyang to Yingchuan, and it seems that he is going to join forces with Bocai and Peng Tuo in the east! ”

"Great!" Nan Ying breathed a sigh of relief, "Then, of course, General Huangfu wants to take advantage of the victory to pursue, in this way, it means that the eastern battlefield and the southern battlefield have been merged." The disadvantage of my eastern battlefield will be reversed because of this! ”

Lu Zhi smiled: "Yes, that's right!" The general only received this military report three days ago, so he immediately invited Nanying Yang to come and take a look! ”

He frowned and said, "However, it was delivered three days ago, and it was already the battle situation nearly ten days ago!" The battlefield is changing rapidly, but how it is now is another matter! ”

Nan Ying looked at Lu Zhi, and his gratitude came spontaneously. Of course, Lu Zhi specially informed this situation because he had expressed his concern about the eastern battlefield, otherwise even if it dragged on for a few days, it would be understandable.

He bowed down and said heartily: "Thank you, General!" The end will be full of feelings! ”

Lu Zhi smiled lightly and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry! Now General Huangfu should be confronting the enemy in the area of Changshe, and I believe that with the joint efforts of him and General Zhu Jun, his chances of victory are still very great! ”

When Nanying heard the Changshe, he suddenly remembered the famous battle of burning the Changsha in history, and couldn't help but pause in his heart, and said with a smile: "The general said it well!" I heard that the area around Changsha is flat and has abundant vegetation, which is a good place to defeat the enemy with fire! ”

Lu Zhi laughed, patted him on the shoulder again and said, "You kid is amazing!" The fire you planted on Thorn Mountain is brilliant. By the way, you can tell Ben in detail! ”

"Yes, the last general obeys!" Nanying smiled, "On that day, the last general will ......."

Suddenly, there was a hurried sound of horses' hooves outside the tent, and one man shouted, "Get out of the way!" Give way, 100,000 urgent military intelligence! ”

The voice was high-pitched and anxious, getting closer and closer, obviously coming towards the Chinese army's tent.

Nan Ying was stunned and looked out of the tent with Lu Zhi.

A knight rushed in covered in dust, untied a coil of iron cylinder from his back and raised it above his head, knelt down on one knee and said: "The last general is under the command of Zhu Jun, the right Zhonglang general, and I hereby present an urgent military situation to General Lu!" ”

Nanying was still nothing, but Lu Zhi couldn't help but hurry up to meet him, took the iron cylinder with one hand, and said in shock: "General Zhu Jun? This! What's going on? How could he send the military intelligence directly to the general! ”

The knight said sadly: "What the general asks! This is indeed contrary to the custom of the DPRK and China, but the general will know the situation at a glance! ”

Lu Zhi unfolded the book in the iron cylinder, and just after reading a few lines, his hands were already trembling slightly.

Nanying already felt bad, and said nervously: "Is something serious?" ”

With a "bang", the book fell to the ground, Lu Zhi turned to Nanying, shook his head and sighed, "You, you!" What an unlucky mouth! ”

"What's going on?" Nanying opened his mouth wide and said, "Does it have anything to do with the last general?" ”

Lu Zhi fixed his mind and said: "The battle of Changshe is really on fire!" But it was not the thief army that burned, but the two generals Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun. Now that they have retreated to Yangzhai after a big defeat, the situation is precarious! I didn't have time to ask the court for help, so I sent a request for reinforcements directly to Ben General! ”

"This, this!" Nan Ying's body shook, he grabbed the knight who delivered the letter, and shouted: "Let me ask you, how are the Qiang Tong and Zhao Ming of the Eastern Route Army now?" ”

The knight was dumbfounded: "Who is the general?" How do you know about the two of them? ”

"Speak quickly!" The Southern Eagle shook him to the ground.

"Yes! The last will know what is going on with them! The knight was dizzy and hurriedly said: "General Zhao Ming is now retreating to Yangzhai with the two generals Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, and General Qiang Tong is a cavalryman, and his whereabouts are unknown after the Battle of Changshe!" ”

Nanying turned around like a whirlwind and shouted, "General Lu! The last general will ask for battle, and immediately lead troops to reinforce! ”

Lu Zhi looked at Nanying's crazy eyes and nodded heavily: "Now that the situation is urgent, you immediately reorganize your arms and fight, and you will immediately go to the court, let's cut it first!" ”

A large group of Han cavalry is rapidly assembling, and the only mobile forces that can be gathered in the shortest possible time are the thousands of cavalry that Nanying has been commanding, plus the old troops reinforced from Ganling, which is exactly about 5,000 people.

From Xiaquyang to Yangzhai, it is 800 miles away, and if it is not for the cavalry troops that have been in battle for a long time, no one can be qualified for the task of long-distance reinforcements. Even if Nanying doesn't ask for battle, this task can only be completed by him.

Nan Ying looked at Lu Zhi, Gao Shun and Jia Xu who came forward, and his anxious mood decreased slightly, and he smiled bitterly: "General Lu, this time the last general and the high school lieutenant have taken away almost all the cavalry, and you and Wen He still have to bear the heavy responsibility of capturing Xia Quyang, which really makes the last general feel uneasy!" ”

"Joke!" Lu Zhi said casually, "This general is fighting a siege battle, what is the use of cavalry?" Besides, you and the captain have a long way to go, and the future is difficult! ”

He sighed: "This general is the main general, but the dangerous task has always been completed by you!" Speaking of which, Ben will be ashamed! ”

A look of respect flashed in Nanying's eyes: "The general's words are serious!" In the end, this will go, in public and private, it is the duty of duty! ”

"Well said! What a good man with a frank heart! Lu Zhi let out a sigh of applause, and suddenly said in a heavy tone: "But before leaving, Ben Jiang wants to ask you a word, are you really sure to reverse the situation in Yingchuan again?" ”

"The last general is not sure!" Nanying said in a low voice, "But as the last general said, if you don't go, for your own sake, the last general's brother is still in danger; Yu Gong, behind Yingchuan is the imperial capital, we have no choice! ”

Lu Zhi nodded, took a step forward, held Nan Ying's hand tightly, and said with a somewhat gloomy expression: "Then, Ben Jiang can only wish you a victory and success!" ”

"General!" Nan Ying looked at everyone's heavy expressions, and his heart was also a little blocked, and he suddenly smiled and said: "The last general also wants to ask you a question, who is the third noble person who is the last general?" ”

"The third nobleman?" Lu Zhi laughed and said calmly: "It's a person you can never imagine, she is today's Situ Yuan Kui's wife Ma Lun!" ”

"It's her!" Nan Ying lost his voice and said, "Old Madam Ma has always been innocent and tranquil, how can she intercede for the last general?" ”

"Being able to say something like this proves that Maren is not wrong about you!" Lu Zhi said happily, "Ben Jiang has always wondered how with her character, how could she do such an exception? But as he got along with Nan Yingyang for a long time, Ben Jiang seemed to understand a little! ”

"But, how could General Lu be familiar with Old Madam Ma?" Nanying Daqi said, "I heard that the old lady has lived in a simple house for many years, and she doesn't have too many connections!" ”

"What an ignorant erection!" Lu Zhi and Nan Ying became more and more friendly, and his speech became more and more casual, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Everyone says that this will be a generation of Confucian generals!" Where did Confucianism come from? It's because Ben Jiang is the father of Ma Lun and the proud disciple of Ma Rong, the world's largest Confucian back then! How do you think Ben can not know Mullen? ”

"I see!" Nanying suddenly realized. Thinking of Mullen's charitable and gentle smile, a warm current suddenly appeared in his heart, and he said softly: "How can I, Nanying, be so loved by Mrs. Mengma!" ”

"Ben has always looked at this senior sister above the top, and the person she can afford must be extraordinary!" Lu Zhi smiled, "On this point, I could have testified for both of you at the same time!" ”

He suddenly squeezed his eyes and said, "I'm sure she must have told you that tranquility, right?" ”

"Is it peaceful?" The anxiety in Nanying's heart suddenly receded like a tide, "If you are not indifferent, you will not be virtuous, if you are not quiet, you will not go far, everything in the world is born from the heart, and everything is determined by the heart!" Right? ”

"Enlighten the rebellious general, Eagle Yang Zhonglang general!" Gao Feng came with a horse, and Shi Li said: "The five thousand cavalry have been assembled, and they are now ready to go, and the last general is on standby!" ”

On this expedition, Gao Feng, Dian Wei, Pei Yuanshao, Hou Cheng and Ma Jun were all faked by Lu Zhi as Sima, although it was a temporary military position, they were able to take charge of a thousand cavalry each, and they were ordered by the main general Nan Ying and the deputy general Gao Shun.

Lu Zhi looked at Nanying's confident look on his face, and smiled: "Nanying Yang, this time you are still in charge alone, and you will be allowed to fight now!" Good luck! ”

"Thank you, General!" Nanying laughed loudly, "Please wait for the good news of the last general!" ”

He rode his horse to the neatly arranged cavalry formation, and with a "choked" sound of his eagle knife unsheathed, he shouted: "Warriors! Let's go and rescue our brother together! Come with me! ”

The cavalry let out an earth-shattering cheer, and the dense formation gradually converged into a long dragon, rushing towards the endless plains in the distance.

Lu Zhi looked at Nanying's vigorous figure from afar, clapped his hands and exclaimed: "Strong! What a warrior too! ”

He turned his head to look at Jia Xu, who had been smiling silently, and said, "What does Wen He think?" ”

"Warriors?" Jia Xu crooked his mouth, "General, the lower officials think that you don't know this Nan Yingyang yet!" ”
