Volume 5 The Flame of the Burning Han Chapter 64 Borrowing the topic to play
When Nan Ying and Cao Cao walked out of the medical tent side by side, most of Cao Cao's dark clouds had dispersed, but Nan Ying was a little more tired.
Weiz's luck was good, he was stabbed in the chest, and he already had an open pneumothorax, and if Nanying came a few hours later, he was afraid that he would die due to respiratory failure. However, under the skillful emergency rescue of Nanying, the danger was finally turned around.
Just as the two of them stepped out of the medical tent, they had been waiting for the soldiers outside the tent to report that Yuan Shao had already sent someone to invite Cao Cao twice, and after hearing that Nanying was rescuing Weizi, Yuan Shao came and went, bringing Yuan Shao's invitation to Nanying.
Cao Cao was stunned, obviously with a hint of resentment: "What are you going to do?" A group of mediocre people who only know how to talk on paper, isn't it in vain? ”
Nanying couldn't help but smile when he heard this. If it weren't for Cao Cao and Bao Xin's decisive initiative to attack, and blocked the fierce offensive of Lu Bu's army with huge losses, the consequences would be almost unimaginable, and it is no wonder that he was angry.
"Let's take a look!" Nan Ying patted Cao Cao on the shoulder: "No matter what, he is still the nominal leader of the coalition army, if someone says that you do not obey the order, it will add to the right and wrong!" ”
Cao Cao hesitated slightly, and finally nodded.
However, when the two of them entered Yuan Shao's big tent of the Chinese army, they felt remorse at the same time, just because, in the big tent, more than a dozen princes were arguing, and even Nanying frowned when he heard the noise.
Yuan Shao sat in the first place with a gloomy face, and Sen Han's gaze swept from the princes, but he didn't say a word, until he saw Nan Ying and Cao Cao entering the account side by side, and then he squeezed out a smile.
Under the guidance of Yuan Shao's subordinates, Nan Ying came to the seat below Yuan Shao and sat down unceremoniously, just when he saw a person opposite smiling at him, but it was Yuan Shu.
"Silence!" Yuan Shao slammed the case. The two eyebrows were raised, and with the dignified appearance, they were indeed not angry and arrogant.
The noise in the tent gradually subsided.
"Among the generals, except for Sun Wentai in Changsha who is recuperating in the camp and Qiao Yuanwei of Dongjun who unfortunately died, the rest have arrived!" Yuan Shao's gaze fell on Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao during the banquet, and said bitterly: "Meng Zhuo, you are responsible for personally counting the damage of this battle, so please announce it in public, so that we can think about it in the long run!" ”
Zhang Miao? Isn't that the Gengyi of the Ten Heavenly Stems? Nan Ying sneered in his heart, and now it seems that he is still Yuan Shao's sworn friend. It's a pity that he won't die because of Yuan Shao in the future? Idiot!
"Yes! Alliance Leader! Zhang Miao stood up and said slowly: "Colleagues, in this battle, our coalition army not only suffered heavy casualties, but was also on the verge of precariousness......
"Let's talk about the losses of our army first!" He was obviously familiar with the counting of this battle, and he actually opened his mouth to come: "At the beginning of the encampment of the coalition army, the total number of counting points in the whole army was about 272,000 people...... If you order it again, there are only 220,000 left. Among them, there are more than 17,000 people who are seriously and lightly injured......."
The faces of the heroes were miserable, but they all listened to him in silence all the way.
"More than 47,000 bodies of our soldiers and men who died in battle have been recovered, and nearly 6,000 people are still missing. Temporarily classified as the war dead. Among them, Yuan Benchu, 5,300 people were killed in battle; Yuan Highway Department, 4,200 war dead; Cao Mengde's department, 3,700 killed in battle; Bao Yuncheng Department. 4,500 people killed in the war....... Hashimoto Wei Division! ”
Zhang Miao thought of this, and couldn't help but pause before he smiled bitterly: "Its subordinate commander will die in battle, and only half of the 20,000 soldiers remain!" ”
Everyone was silent again. There is a sense of sadness in the heart of the rabbit and the fox. Several of the princes' subordinates were almost crippled, and they were constantly shouting with resentment, but they were silent at this time....... compared to Qiao Mao, an unlucky bastard, he should be content to live.
Finally, someone forced a smile and said: "If the crockpot does not break from the well, the general will inevitably die in battle...... Qiao Yuanwei killed himself to serve the country, which can be a model for us! Although our army has suffered many casualties, the main force is still there, and it is time to regroup! ”
"This is the current predicament of our army!" Zhang Miao glanced at Yuan Shao, and said astringently: "Huaxiong's army broke through our army's rear camp, not only killed and injured many of our army, but also broke Qiao Yuanwei on the spot......., and what is even more deadly is that our army originally had at least enough military supplies for the army for 80 days, but it was burned by Huaxiong's fire, and the rest is only enough for 220,000 troops in January!" ”
"What?" The princes were boiling again.
Someone shouted excitedly: "On that day, we came with military supplies of grain and grass, and it was the alliance leader who suggested that we concentrate military supplies in order to dispatch them....... and now that the grain and grass have been burned, please also ask Yuan League Master to immediately try to raise them, otherwise the army will be chaotic!" ”
Immediately, someone sneered: "What do you mean by bringing military grain and grass?" You brought 20,000 soldiers and horses that day, but you only handed over 100,000 stones of grain and grass...... Isn't the deficit owed by Yuan Benchu made up for you? What's the noise here? ”
Someone else looked at each other angrily and said, "Who doesn't know that you are Yuan Benchu's best friend?" Is it unclear whether public or private is unclear to help him speak like this? It should be known that the grain and grass that will be paid that day are at least 300,000 stones! ”
A war of words broke out again in the tent.
Cao Cao's gradually calming heart suddenly became blocked, and he finally couldn't bear to shoot the case, and shouted: "If you don't wait to think about the way to fight the enemy, but only for your own selfishness, you quarrel endlessly here, how can you be worthy of those martyrs whose souls have not been dispersed!" ”
The tent suddenly fell silent, and someone sneered: "Meng De said righteously...... But it's just because of the loss of his subordinates because of heartache, isn't this selfish? ”
"What did you say?" Cao Cao's eyes suddenly turned blood-red, and he was about to explode all his anger, when he suddenly heard Nan Ying say lightly: "You are Qingzhou Thorn Shi Jiaohe, right?" ”
The people who accused Cao Cao were Qingzhou Thorn Shi Jiao and Jiao Yuanguang, he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Nanying's interface, and said with a smile: "This official is exact, I don't know what Nanying Yang has to say?" ”
"You said that Cao Cao was selfish, why don't you listen to Zhang Mengzhuo's battle report?" Nan Ying stretched out his hand and knocked on the case in front of him without raising his head: "He has finished reading the losses of our army, and the following is the detailed report of the enemy's capture....... is it a donkey or a horse, why don't you pull it out for a walk?" ”
Jiao He's face was blue, although he had never heard the saying "It's a donkey or a horse, why don't you pull it out for a walk", but he also heard Nanying's irony of Cao Cao being a horse and he being a donkey, and he couldn't help but be angry. However, he finally didn't dare to have a seizure in front of him, and reluctantly smiled: "Very good! Very good! Let's ask Zhang Mengzhuo to continue! ”
I only heard Zhang Miao continue to read: "A total of 80,000 Dong troops went out to fight this time. It is divided into 40,000 Lu Bu's army on the front, 20,000 Niu auxiliary army, and 10,000 cavalry from Huaxiong and 10,000 cavalry from Zhang Liao who attacked our coalition army and the two battalions of Bohai and Changsha armies! In and outside our military camp, there were 3,000 corpses of the Huaxiong Division, and 11,000 corpses of the two armies of Lu Bu and Niu Fu before the battle! ”
"Among them......" He hesitated for a moment before he said: "It can already be confirmed that the number of enemy troops killed by Meng De and Yuncheng is about four thousand!" ”
As soon as these words came out, not only Jiao He was speechless, but even the princes were shocked together. The whole army killed no more than 14,000 enemies, and Cao Cao and Bao Xin took the lead in the battle. withstood the most fierce first few waves of Lu Bu's army, not to mention, he actually killed as many as 4,000 enemies...... No one can be critical of such a result!
Cao Cao and Bao Xin looked at each other at the same time and laughed miserably. What a tragic price behind such a victory! Counting the 3,700 killed in the battle of Cao Cao's troops and the 4,500 killed in the battle of Bao Xin's troops, plus the more than 2,000 people who were wiped out by the entire army of the Weizi Division, nearly 11,000 lives! also paid Bao Xin's brother Bao Tao...... If it weren't for Nanying's timely action, there would be one more unjust soul of Weizi!
"Do you hear that?" Nan Ying said lightly: "Does anyone dare to say that Cao Cao is for his own selfishness?" ”
Everyone was speechless, but they heard Zhang Miao suddenly say: "Ah! Nan Yingyang, the losses and gains of your department and Sun Wentai have not yet been reported, and the following officials have not counted them! ”
Listen to him. Someone immediately found the conversation and sneered: "Nanying Yang used the number of enemies annihilated in front of the battle to fight for Cao Cao, but we have nothing to say...... But I don't know that Nanying is a famous general. How's the win? ”
"Well! Compared to Ben's past record, this battle is indeed lackluster! Nan Ying said casually: "Zhang Liao led 10,000 troops to attack our camp, but he was defeated and retreated under the strong blow of our army, and more than 2,300 corpses were left at the scene...... What about the casualties of our army while defending? Looks like a few kids hurt their hands because they pulled their bows, right? ”
The group of heroes couldn't help but gasp when they heard this. Even Yuan Shao suddenly straightened up, with a shocked look on his face.
Someone whispered: "Nanying Yang is not exaggerating, is he? Killed more than 2,000 enemies without a single casualty? ”
"About this!" Nan Ying still had a flat tone: "First of all, I have to say that Ben Jiang has nearly a hundred battles in his life. There has never been a single false report of war exploits! Secondly, the enemy corpses and war horses collected by our army are all there, and the total number of our army has already been informed to the Yuan Alliance Master, if you don't believe it, you can nod your heads one by one! ”
The tent fell silent again, and after a long time, someone suddenly sneered: "Of course we believe in Nanying Yang's record, but we have other questions.......
Nan Ying's gaze fell on the person who spoke, but his face did not change in the slightest: "Yuan Yi, what do you want to say?" ”
Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yu Huo Ran got up, pointed at Nanying and said, "Since your army won so easily, why are you still sitting on the wall and watching us fight to the death with Lu Bu?" You either have the intention of profiting as a fisherman, or you will not save you when you die! ”
As soon as he said this, the heroes were moved together, and someone blurted out: "Exactly, if Nanying Yangken sent troops to help, why would our army be so defeated?" ”
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Nanying, just to see how he responded. If it weren't for the strong strength of Bohai and Changsha, I was afraid that a crowd would have risen up to denounce it!
"Yuan Tai is cautious!" Surprisingly, it was Liu Bei, who was sitting at the end, who was the first to protest: "Xiaguan once had the honor to follow General Nan to fight against tens of thousands of troops in Karasuma...... Will you put the name of seeing death and not saving General Nan's head? I'm afraid that the 100,000 comrades of the Youzhou Army will not be able to agree first! ”
Yuan Yi saw that Liu Bei dared to collide with him in front of a county magistrate, and there was no lack of threat between his words, he couldn't help but be angry in his heart, and was about to scold out angrily, when suddenly two pairs of cold eyes like cold lightning fell on his face together, which made his face numb, and gave birth to a slightly stinging horror feeling.
Yuan Yi opened his mouth wide, looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei who were looking at each other angrily behind Liu Bei, thinking of the strong combat power shown by the two of them when they fought against Lu Bu during the day, his heart immediately felt cold, and he didn't dare to hurt people anymore.
"Just a moment ago, Nan Ying Yang personally took action to pull Wei Zi back from the front of the Ghost Gate, and one hundred and fifty doctors from the Bohai Navy are now in my camp to save the dead and help the wounded!" Cao Cao slowly stood up and glared at Yuan Yu fiercely: "You said he wouldn't save him when he died?" Have you asked me? ”
Bao Xin also said coldly on the side: "Don't forget, Nanying Yang personally went into battle today." In the battle of the generals, he killed the invincible Lu Bu and fled, which greatly boosted the morale of our army...... If it weren't for that, would today's battle be so easy? ”
Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu glanced at each other and felt bad together. None of them thought that Yuan Yi's accusation against Nanying would cause public anger.
Yuan Shao coughed dryly and said unhappily: "Yuan Yi, how can you be rude to General Nan?" According to Ben Jiang's thoughts, there must be a reason why Han Yang did not send troops to relieve the siege...... If it weren't for the tightness of the war. If you have no time to clone yourself, you will have empty troops and it will be difficult to dispatch! ”
He turned his face and smiled at Nan Ying, "Han Yang, did you say this?" ”
"Thank you Xuande, Meng De and Yuncheng for your righteous words!" In everyone's complicated gaze, Nan Ying was surprisingly not angry, he smiled and arched his hand to Liu Bei and the others, and nodded to Yuan Shao and said, "Thank you for the exculpation of Brother Ben, it's just ......"
He was a little surprised: "Who said that Ben didn't send troops?" ”
"What?" In the account. Several voices blurted out, "So where are the soldiers?" ”
"Someone's coming!" Suddenly, Nanying stood up and walked towards the tent.
A Bohai eagle will hurry in and bow down to the southern eagle and hand over a cloud of things.
"Want to know what this is?" Nanying "exhaled" and unfolded the whole thing.
"What is this?" Including Yuan Shao, all the princes couldn't help but stand up ....... Nanying's hands. On a bloodstained banner, a big "Hua" character is swinging slightly.
"Humph! Want to slander Ben for not being saved? Nan Ying threw the broken military flag in his hand at the colorless Yuan Yu, bluffing him backwards.
"I'll tell you the truth!" Nanying Zhuo stood in the tent and looked around proudly: "I heard that Hua Xiong led 10,000 cavalry to attack you. He took matters into his own hands and sent troops to annihilate them in the middle of the road, in order to comfort Qiao Yuanwei and many heroic souls who died in battle....... the corpses of 7,000 Liangzhou cavalry have been transported outside our Bohai camp. If you don't believe me, you can go and have a look! ”
"What? The seven thousand Liangzhou cavalry were all ......, and the heroes in the tent lost their color together. Coupled with the killing and wounding of Zhang Liao's subordinates, the Bohai Navy has destroyed nearly 10,000 enemies, which is not much worse than the results of the bloody struggle of more than 200,000 coalition troops...... What's more, listening to Nanying's tone, the Bohai Navy almost suffered little losses.
The tent was terrifyingly quiet, and the princes were terrified together, and they were all reassessing the true combat power of the Bohai Navy.
Nan Ying sneered, intentionally or unintentionally put one hand on the hilt of the knife on his waist, and stared at Yuan Yi: "You dare to say that I won't save me when I die?" ”
Yuan Yi's face turned pale, and he only knew how to step back, where did he dare to say the first half a word?
"In fact, the war is not tight!" Nan Ying turned his head to look at Yuan Shao and said lightly: "If the Yuan Alliance Master plans to attack the Lu Bujun camp immediately, I would like to lead my troops to be the vanguard!" ”
"Han Yang said he was laughing!" Yuan Shao smiled reluctantly: "Our army is thinking about how to replenish military supplies, how can we take risks and fight again?" ”
"Excellent! Then Ben can tell me now! Nanying's face became even more cold, and he was even more peaceful and generous than before: "No matter what you plan, you will launch a full-scale offensive in the near future!" ”
Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others changed color together, listening to Nanying's tone, he seemed to be planning to go it alone and completely parted ways with the coalition forces.
Yuan Shu couldn't help but say: "Han Yang, don't be impulsive, do you want to rely on the limited soldiers and horses in Bohai and Changsha to storm the Tiger Prison?" ”
"Storming the Tiger Prison? This self-knowledge will still be there! Nan Ying turned around and walked outside the tent: "If you still take the revival of the Han dynasty as your own responsibility, you might as well think about it....... since Hua Xiong and Zhang Liao can calmly go around the army behind us, why do you have to storm the tiger prison?" ”
"There must be a trail!" Cao Cao suddenly came to his senses and shouted: "We can completely bypass the tiger prison and go straight to Luoyang!" ”
"Han Yang is angry!" Yuan Shao finally stood up and shouted hurriedly at Nanying: "Since we have this good plan, of course we will not rest on our laurels, and please stay....... how about you and I think about it in the long run?" ”
"Humph! Since it was the original persuasion ......" Nan Ying slowly stopped, turned around and smiled: "Then of course you can think about it in the long run!" ”
"However, there will be a proposal, I wonder if it is appropriate?" His gaze was fixed on Yuan Shao's face: "Qiao Yuanwei unfortunately passed away, and there are still as many as 10,000 of his subordinates, if there is no one to lead it, how can he play a role in the future battle against Dong?" ”
The tent heroes were stunned again, just because Nanying's words just said what was on their minds, who didn't want to include this piece of ownerless fat in their pockets?
"What does Han Yang mean?" Yuan Shao was extremely angry in his heart, but he had to lower his posture and said: "This remnant army, if it is managed by the Bohai Navy, which has excellent combat power, it will not lose a good thing!" ”
"I don't dare to take it so strongly!" Nan Ying laughed and said: "Dongjun belongs to the rule of Yanzhou Thorn History, of course, Liu Dai and Liu Gongshan are in charge!" ”
"What?" Among the heroes, Liu Dai looked at Yuan Shao with surprise and joy.
Yuan Shao was even more angry in his heart, so blatantly interfering in the internal affairs of the coalition army simply did not take him Yuan Shao seriously, and even disrupted his intention to gradually win over or even annex the Eastern Heroes by taking advantage of the attrition in the battle against Dong...... Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and looked deeply at Nanying again, did he do this because he saw through what he thought and adopted a-for-tat strategy?
"This is a very good statement, and it coincides with my brother!" Yuan Shao's heart was racing, and he said happily: "That's how it should be!" ”
Seeing Yuan Shao bowing his head so easily, all the princes in the tent were suspicious, some whispered, some lowered their heads and pondered, but no one dared to speak out against it.
Looking at the group of heroes with panicked faces, a sneering smile finally appeared on Nanying's face......
Ever since he stepped into this big tent of the Chinese army, he has been keenly aware of the undercurrent in the tent. Although the coalition forces suffered heavy losses in this battle, the most important point is...... Including Yuan Shao, they were afraid, not only afraid of the powerful force of Lu Bu's army, but also wavered about whether they could capture the impregnable Tiger Prison Xiongguan! What kind of food and grass are not enough? Fool it! The military supplies under the unified control of the coalition forces may indeed be burned to the ground by Huaxiong, but who of these princes is not an old man? Could they have willingly surrendered all their food and grass at the beginning of the alliance? The answer to this is clearly no! If it can't successfully stimulate the fighting spirit of the allied generals, Nanying will face .......the dilemma of fighting alone, he can only take advantage of the problem to play, taking advantage of the complex psychology of the Bohai Navy's total annihilation of Huaxiong's troops, such as shock, doubt, fear, and excitement, and lose no time in throwing out a fragrant bait that can detour through the tiger's prison, so that they can re-give birth to the hope of great events...... Of course, after Lu Bu learned that Huaxiong's entire army was annihilated, whether he would set up an ambush and build a pass on that trail was not a matter for Nanying to manage! Whoever of you wants to take credit, just go for it!
He bowed his hand to the tent with a blank face, and turned around and walked out of the tent.
Do you dare to ask me about my teacher? Lao Tzu can go and go when he wants, fight when he wants, and he is completely unconstrained by anyone, and you had better remember this truth from tonight onwards! On the contrary, it is you who are fame-seeking, and now it is difficult to ride a tiger, and you have set up such a big battle to fight against the heavens, if you don't have an inch, see how you explain to the people of the world...... and Liu Dai, Ben will have no relatives with you and no reason, but he deliberately snatched back such a big benefit for you, if Yuan Shao can't "look the other way" at you, then it will be really disappointing!
Drama...... It's still to come! Listening to the noise in the tent again, a cold smile appeared on Nanying's lips. (To be continued......)
