Chapter 107: The Situation

The haze of war shrouded the heads of the people of Yingchuan, the Yellow Turban Army attacked Yingchuan in a big way, their combat intention was very simple, to take Yingchuan as a springboard for their own advance, and then capture Luoyang, the Yellow Turban Army started in Qingyan Erzhou, Yingchuan is the place they must pass through to Luoyang.

On the map of Yingchuan County, Yanling County, Changshe County, and Xinzheng County can barely be connected in a straight line, Changshe is in the middle, Yanling is below, and Xinzheng is at the top, and the Yellow Turban Army has taken Yanling and Xinzheng, as long as Changshe is captured again, you can drive straight in, it can be said that taking these three counties is equivalent to taking most of Yingchuan.

The Han army led by Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi and Zhu Jun were guarding Changshe, and the main force of the three brothers Zhang Jiao started a tug-of-war, Cao Cao and the Yellow Turban general Bo Cai fought in Yanling, the two sides were temporarily deadlocked, but Xinzheng County was empty and was captured by the Yellow Turban general Guan Hai.

As the war progressed, there was a very interesting phenomenon, there were Yellow Turban troops in various states and counties, they killed people and set fire to do evil, the local people suffered greatly, there were many people who originally believed in the Taiping Dao, have escaped the control of the Taiping Dao, and many people were coerced in the wave of the Yellow Turban Uprising and became a member of the Yellow Turban thieves.

In Yingchuan, the most fierce battlefield, whether it was the troops of the three Zhang Jiao brothers or the army led by the Yellow Turban general Guan Hai Bocai, it was a strict military discipline, and there was no crime against the people, and even in the cities they captured, the people lived better.

In the counties and counties captured by Zhang Jiao, there are many inexplicable words: what "fight local tyrants!" Divide the field! "Distribute according to work, work more and get more, and work less and get less." Etcetera.

And Xiang Qing, who was in the military camp outside Yanling City, also received secret information from Wang Shu, that is, about Zhang Jiao's policy in the Yellow Turban occupied area, called: "Huangtian Dynasty Tianmu System".

After carefully flipping through it, Xiang Qing scoffed at this, a system that copied the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement in later generations, a system that has failed, can you succeed in the late Eastern Han Dynasty? At the military meeting, Xiang Qing also gave a detailed analysis of the pros and cons of this policy to the generals and Cao Cao.

Compared with the policy of the Eastern Han Dynasty, this policy has been ahead of the millennium, just like putting the centralized system of the feudal dynasty in the era of primitive people, it is impossible to succeed.

Reality is not a novel, after the protagonist in the novel crosses, in the case of power, he likes to put the system of later generations in ancient times, thinking that the successful system of later generations can lead to the development of ancient society, such as the system of the 21st century, not to mention that everyone knows, such a system is a successful system in modern times, and it is not necessarily in ancient times, it is a 100% failure, and there is no chance of success in 1 in 10,000.

The generals of the Han Dynasty who resisted the Yellow Turban rebellion, everyone knew that the real Yellow Turban Army was gathered in Yingchuan, and those forces who were under the banner of the Yellow Turban, but actually killed people and set fires, were just clowns who jumped off the beams, and these clowns who jumped off the beams were just to discredit the Yellow Turban thieves.

The tactical layout of the Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan is also very simple, Changshe County will definitely not be able to take it in a short time, so Zhang Jiao ordered Guan Hai and Bo Cai to lead a partial division, Bo Cai to capture Yanling, Guan Hai to capture Xinzheng, after these two places are taken, you can attack Changshe left and right, Zhang Jiao's appetite is still quite big, he wants to eat the main force of the Han army in one go, and then implement the next plan.

The battle situation in Changshe was anxious, and the direction of Yanling was also blocked by Cao Cao, and there was no progress to stop, and now the focus of the battle should be shifted to Xinzheng County, and Guan Hai had just taken Xinzheng County, and he had already encountered problems.

Before the gap in the city wall could be repaired, all the measures to defend the city were not prepared, and the number of men was only 8,000, and they encountered a Han army of more than 20,000 men.

The commanders of this army are the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, after receiving Cao Cao's letter for help, they used the family power of their fourth and third princes to temporarily raise an army of 20,000 people, and rushed directly to Xinzheng under the advice of the strategist Xu You.

And the vanguard general under Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu is the future Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian! Sun Jian also had four fierce generals under his account, namely Huang Gai Chengpu and Gan Mao Handang, Sun Jian led them to Xinzheng City, and saw that the city wall of Xinzheng had not been repaired, so he took the opportunity to launch a fierce attack.

The siege was carried out for a day and a night, extremely tragic, when Sun Jian withdrew his troops in the early morning of the next day, almost everyone on both sides was wounded, and in the evening of the next day, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu had rushed to the new city, an order, the three gates of Xinzheng were surrounded to death, leaving only a gap, which is the famous "three missing one".

In the dark of the next day, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu summoned all the generals to the big tent of the Chinese army, ready to discuss tomorrow's siege strategy.

This time, the Yuan family handed over the power of commander to Yuan Shao, but it gave Yuan Shu a lot of benefits, so Yuan Shu was not too interested in the position of commander, so it was Yuan Shao who sat in the first place.

Behind Yuan Shao stood Yan Liangwen Chou, the first military general sat Sun Jian, and then there were the four under Sun Jian, and then there were generals such as Ji Ling and Lu Yi who had never shown their faces, and Yuan Shu was sitting in the first place of Wenchen, followed by Xu You, as well as judging Feng Ji, Guo Tuxin and others.

Wenchen and military generals gathered together, a huge Chinese military tent, there were already people standing outside, and just outside the Chinese military tent, there were two people standing outside the tent, incompatible with the lively atmosphere in the tent, they were not Yuan Shao or Yuan Shu's strategists, but people who came to visit.

One of them, the elder, was meticulously dressed, wearing a wide robe, with a sword tied around his waist, and waited patiently with his hands behind his back.

The other was younger, but a little informal, although he was wearing a Confucian robe, but his hair was disheveled, his clothes were disheveled, he didn't look like a Confucian student, he was still holding a wine jug in his hand, his face was flushed and drunk, and his eyes were a little blurred.

The young man patted the person next to him, his mouth was full of wine, and he asked in a daze, "Wen Ruo, when do we have to wait?" Mercedes-Benz ran here for hundreds of miles just to stand here and wait? ”

The old man shook his head helplessly, helped the young man tidy up his clothes, took the wine jug in his hand but found that the wine jug was empty, and he could only sigh and smile: "Wait a little longer, Fengxiao, I heard that this Yuan Gongzi had the reputation of Corporal Lixian when he was in Luoyang, and I waited for a hundred miles, and it was not a moment and a half." ”

"Alright then, let's wait."

The young man tied the flask around his waist, and sat down on the ground regardless of the dust on the ground, and the old man did not care about him, but still stood upright, not moving.

These two people, the elder surname Xun Mingyu, the word Wenruo, is the future famous "Xun Lingjun", and when he was young, he was called "Wang Zuozhicai", that is, he is a great talent who assists the king.

The young man's surname is Guo Mingjia, and the word Fengxiao is the legendary "ghost scheme!" There is also a popular saying: "Guo Jia does not die, and Wolong does not come out." "Wolong is Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han, although this sentence cannot be confirmed, but this sentence can also be seen from the side that Guo Jia's level can at least be compared with Zhuge Liang.

"Fengxiao, now that the situation in Yingchuan is so chaotic, haven't you made up your mind yet?"

Guo Jia shook his head: "I don't want to leave Yingchuan. ”

"Okay then, but I'll say it anyway." Xun Yu said: "Yingchuan is the place of four wars, if there is a change in the world, Yingchuan is a place that often suffers from military disasters, it is best to leave Yingchuan to avoid it, and it is not too late to come back when the world is peaceful." ”

"Oh, my brother Wen Ruo, it's not that you don't know me, I must be inseparable from Yingchuan now, so you don't need to say it anymore."

The two stood in place and waited, while the quarrel in the account was already in full swing.

"Lord, tomorrow I will be the first! Within an hour, you will definitely be able to win Xinzheng! ”

"No! There are 8,000 defenders in the city, we can't lose so many troops in Xinzheng, my lord, the countryside near Xinzheng County is barren, and the grain in the city must be stretched, we just need to cut off the grain road, besiege the city for a few days, and the Yellow Turban thieves will not attack themselves! ”

"I don't agree with what Xu Junshi said, as the so-called soldiers are fast, the Yellow Turban thieves have just captured Xinzheng, the city walls have not had time to be repaired, and the city defense equipment has not been prepared, so don't take the opportunity to attack the city at this time, let alone when!"

"No, no, no, the Yellow Turban thieves don't have the city defense equipment, is it true that our army's siege equipment is already complete? We don't even have a ladder right now? General, what do you take to attack the city? ”

"I don't agree, tomorrow the city must be attacked! Don't miss the opportunity and don't come again, the Lord will make a quick decision! ”

"Lord, by all means, this matter should be considered in the long run!"

……

The military generals are fighting the siege of the city, and the ministers are besieging the city, and no one on either side can convince anyone, so they can only see whose voice is loud, and they shout at each other, shouting so that their faces are red and their necks are thick, and their voices have been shouted to be hoarse.

Old God Yuan Shu was sitting in his seat, squinting his eyes and peeking at Yuan Shao, secretly happy in his heart, he just wanted to see how Yuan Shao ended.

Yuan Shaotie blushed his face, slapped the handsome case angrily and shouted: "Enough! Stop arguing! ”

The coach spoke, and both sides rolled their eyes at each other, and both turned their heads away from each other.

Yuan Shao said angrily: "The yellow turban thieves in Xinzheng County are all laughing when they see you arguing here!" Shame on you! ”

The generals were silent, Yuan Shu stood up at this time, and said with a smile: "Don't blame them at the beginning, they also quarreled to capture Xinzheng, let's get an idea quickly, you are the commander of the first army, everyone is waiting for you." ”

Although Yuan Shao is Yuan Shu's elder brother in name, Yuan Shu has never admitted that Yuan Shao, the person who came out of the concubine, is his brother, so he has always called him Yuan Benchu, Yuan Shu has always looked down on him in his heart, and I, Yuan Shu, am the eldest son! What kind of thing are you Yuan Benchu!

The problem was thrown to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao looked at the people with different opinions and was also worried, this Xinzheng County is in front of him, and he can't get around, so what should I do? Will you siege or besiege a city?
