Three days later, Qin Song and Sun Wei completed the reorganization of the new army and came to meet Yuan Yao.

"I'll wait to see the lord, the new army has been reorganized, and I ask the lord to give orders."

Yuan Yao put down the paperwork in his hand and said: "It's hard work, General Yue sent back the news, Yuhang, Qiantang and Fuchun counties have been recovered by General Yue's army, and now Sun Quan has led the remnants to flee to the Lingyang area, and General Yue is still leading the army to pursue." I have already explained to General Yue that after the remnants of Sun Quan's army fled into Lingyang, General Yue and General Gan will work together to force the defenders around Lingyang to retreat to the line of Wanling. ”

"Lingyang is heavily defended by the Jiangdong Army, if its troops and horses retreat to the first line of Wanling, then Wucheng County, which is located between Wanling City and Wu County, is very important, if it can occupy Wucheng County first, then the Wanling defenders want to contact Wu County, they must pass through or go south to bypass Zhenze, so that our army can take the lead!"

"Our troops and horses still need to reorganize Jiangdong to surrender to rest a little, and there is no spare strength to go to seize Wucheng, General Sun was a Wucheng guard general before, and General Qin was Sun Ce's old general before, and he is also very familiar with the land of Jiangdong, I intend to let the two of you lead 10,000 new troops to seize Wucheng County, I don't know what the two of you want?"

Although Yuan Yao said it politely, Qin Song and Sun Wei also knew that now that the two of them had joined Yuan Yao, where was their free choice at this time?

Moreover, Sun Wei was a Wucheng guard general before, and he had a good foundation in Wucheng County for many years, so he was naturally willing to go to Wucheng to garrison, Qin Song and Sun Wei were not in unison, let alone refute Yuan Yao's military orders.

The reason why Yuan Yao let Qin Song serve as the chief general and Sun Wei as the deputy general to form this new army was because of Yuan Yao's considerations.

On the one hand, Qin Song had made outstanding achievements in the front of the battle, but Sun Wei had to rely on the rescue of Yuan Yao and Qin Song's troops to survive, and the two of them formed a new army, so they naturally had to use the meritorious Qin Song as the main general;

The two of them, the garrison of this new army, had already made a decision at the moment when Yuan Yao decided to let the two of them reorganize their troops and horses, the garrison of this new army must be Wucheng County, so that it can not only block the connection between the Jiangdong Army on the first line of Wanling and Wu County, but also transfer Qin Song and the people of the Huiji clan from Huiji County, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. Sun Wei was a defender of Wucheng before, and he had a deep foundation in the Wucheng area, and only by letting Qin Song serve as the main general and master most of the troops, Qin Song could compete with Sun Hui, who occupied a favorable position, so that they could achieve a balance between the two.

Of the three, Sun Wei, Qin Song and others are strictly speaking traitors of the Sun family, and if the two of them form a new army to be stationed in one place, Yuan Yao can also be more assured, and there is no need to worry that they will throw themselves into the Sun family again. Moreover, Sun Wei and Qin Song can also be regarded as the 'horse bones' pushed out by Yuan Yao, Jiangdong Wenwu saw that after Sun Wei and Qin Song and others surrendered to Yuan Yao, they could still lead the soldiers and horses to sit in one place, and they would definitely be very moved, so they could also divide the hearts of Jiangdong monarchs and ministers and weaken the cohesion of Jiangdong Wenwu.

Qin Song and Sun Wei glanced at each other, and after Qin Song saw the kind of heat in Sun Hui's eyes, he also knew that he couldn't hide from this trip to Wucheng, so he could only bow down and respond: "No, we won't take Wucheng County for the lord!" ”

Yuan Yao was not worried that Qin Song and Sun Wei would dare to disobey his orders, and when he heard this, he responded: "Well, that's fine. Although the Jiangdong Army has experienced several defeats, but its military vitality still exists, there are still heavy troops of the Jiangdong Army stationed in the south of the Jiangdong land, after the two of you lead the army into Wucheng County, you only need to guard the city, as long as Wucheng is not lost, it will be counted as a great achievement for the two of you, and after the war, I will have my own reward! ”

Qin Song, Sun Wei and the others also knew how many catties and taels they had, and when they heard the words, they responded: "Promise, we will take the order and guard Wucheng County for the lord!" ”

Yuan Yao picked up the paperwork on the table again, and said: "Well, the military situation is urgent, the two of you will lead the army to go immediately, I have asked Shiyuan to prepare the food and grass for you, you can go and hand it over." ”

Seeing this, Qin Song and Sun Wei hurriedly bowed: "No, I'll retire!" ”

……

In order to deal with Sun Wei and Qin Song and others, Yuan Yao did not lead the army to Shanyin in the past few days, but has been stationed in the area of Yuji City, and after Sun Wei and Qin Song and others led the army to leave, Yuan Yao began to lead the army to Shanyin City.

The civil and military officials of Shanyin City had already learned about the battle of Yuji, and after learning that Yuan Yao's army was coming, the officials hurriedly went out of the city with the gentry from all over the city to meet Yuan Yao's army: "I'll wait to meet the state pastor!" ”

"Gentlemen, please get up, enter the city first, and then talk about it."

Yuan Yao appeased everyone and led three thousand guards into the city, and the civil and military officials and the squires in the city hurriedly followed Yuan Yao into the city, Yuan Yao directly entered the Taishou Mansion to stay, and he was not in the mood to deal with those officials and squires, so he handed over all those people to Pang Tong and Lu Xun to receive.

Pang Tong is the first mastermind of Yuan Yao's army, Lu Xun is Yuan Yao's personal seal of the history of the magistrate of Huiji County, and he will be the person in charge of Huiji County in the future, Huiji civil and military officials and squires naturally do not feel that they have been neglected, Pang Tong and Lu Xun want to know the details of the affairs of Huiji County, and they are also quite polite to these people.

After Pang Tong and Lu Xun dealt with everyone, they came to the study to meet Yuan Yao, "I'll wait to meet the lord!" ”

Yuan Yao put down the book in his hand and said, "Okay, sit down, how do you understand the important things in Huiji County?" ”

Lu Xun replied: "Back to the lord, I already have some basic understanding, and the details need to be investigated slowly." ”

"Well, in today's troubled times, everything is based on soldiers and horses, as long as you have a large army, you don't have to worry that those people will not be obedient."

When Yuan Yao said this, he looked at Pang Tong and Lu Xun, and said: "The Jiangdong soldiers who have been collected before are all elite soldiers who have followed Sun Ce for many years, and it would be a pity if the troops used these soldiers, I plan to use these Jiangdong army soldiers as the foundation to form a team of soldiers and horses, I don't know what the two of you think?" ”

Pang Tong and Lu Xun glanced at each other, and hurriedly responded: "The lord is wise, we will obey the lord's order!" ”

Yuan Yao had already considered the formation of a new army, and said: "After Qin Song and Sun Wei transferred some soldiers, there are now about 15,000 soldiers in Jiangdong, and only 15,000 soldiers and horses need to be left to pick out the generals among them. I counted 500 soldiers and horses from the Pro-Guard Army as the new army generals, and then selected 500 elites from Jiangdong to join the Pro-Guard Army; Break up and reorganize all the Jiangdong soldiers, and then lead the army with 500 soldiers of the Pro-Guard Army as generals, and talk about the reorganization of these soldiers into a new army of 15,000 people, what do you think? ”

Pang Tong stroked his beard and smiled, and said: "These soldiers are already elite divisions, and there are elite guards as generals to lead the army, so that this fifteen thousand new troops will definitely be able to form combat power in the shortest possible time, and the lord is wonderful!" ”

Lu Xun also replied: "Congratulations to the lord for getting another combatable army!" ”

Yuan Yao saw that Pang Tong and Lu Xun both recognized their own methods of reorganizing the army, and then said: "I plan to divide these 15,000 soldiers and horses into two parts, of which 10,000 soldiers and horses are led by Bo Yan as a force to suppress Huiji County and guard against Shanyue; The other 5,000 soldiers and horses are temporarily commanded by Yue Yun, so as a supplement to our army, after all, our army is about to face a big battle, and there are only 10,000 soldiers and horses, which is really too thin. The two of you and Yue Yun will be responsible for this whole army, and we will definitely complete the reorganization of these fifteen thousand soldiers and horses in the shortest possible time! ”

Pang Tong and Lu Xun hurriedly responded: "No, we will receive the order!! ”

……

Just when Yuan Yao was fighting Jiangdong, Cao Cao also led his army north to meet Yuan Yao, opening the prelude to the Battle of Guandu.

Cao Cao personally led 150,000 soldiers and horses from Xudu to the Yellow River to meet Yuan Shao's army, the 150,000 army was divided into three teams, Cao's pro-noble general Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren led 30,000 troops as the vanguard of the army, Cao Cao personally led his generals to lead 100,000 troops as the Chinese army, and another Cao pro-noble general Cao Hong led 20,000 troops to escort grain and grass to slowly march as the rear army, 150,000 troops rolled up all the way to the smoke and dust, and went straight to the north.

Cao Cao's 150,000 army had just reached the halfway point, Cao Cao received an urgent document from Liu Yan, the Taishou of Dongjun, Cao Cao saw that the military situation in White Horse City was urgent, and hurriedly led the generals and 30,000 elites to speed up the march to catch up with the front army of Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren, and the 50,000 army joined forces in one place, and rushed straight to White Horse City in the starry night.

After the 50,000 Cao army arrived at the White Horse City, Cao Cao ordered the army to set up a position with its back against the dirt mountain, and the 50,000 soldiers and horses were the elite divisions that followed Cao Cao's southern expedition to the north.

Yuan Shao's general Yan Liang also gave up continuing to attack the city after learning of the arrival of Cao Cao's army, and 100,000 elite soldiers set up a military formation on the plain outside the city, although Cao Cao's soldiers and horses are all elite divisions, but the 100,000 army under Yan Liang is still not bad at all, 100,000 troops are lined up in formation, and the lineup is solemn and angry, which makes people look forward to it and feel awe!

Cao Cao had long heard of Yan Liang's reputation, but he had never seen it before, and now he saw that Yan Liang was eight feet tall and aggressive, and his iron-blooded aura was terrifying, so he knew that this person must be worthy of the name, and he did not dare to underestimate this person.

Cao Cao was worried about losing the heavy generals in his army, so he turned around and looked around at the generals, and finally set his eyes on Song Xian, the old general of Lu Bu, and said: "I heard that you are a fierce general under Lu Bu, and now you dare to fight with Yan Liang?" ”

"Let's see that the end will take off the head of this person for the prime minister!!"

Where could Song Xian stand Cao Cao's agitation, he shouted a promise, and then picked up his gun and got on the horse, slapped the horse and went straight to Yan Liang to kill.

Yan Liang's horizontal sword immediately moved in front of the military formation, and when he saw Song Xian beating his horse and killing, he was not moved at all, until Song Xian came to Yan Liang's horse, Yan Liang shouted loudly, and the horse came to meet him. The two fought for only three rounds, and Yan Liang raised his knife and directly beheaded Song Xian under the horse!

When Cao Cao saw Yan Liang so brave, he was immediately shocked and said, "Yan Liang is really brave!! ”

When Wei Xu, the old general of Lu Bu, saw that Yan Liang was famous by the head of his friend, he was immediately furious in his heart, and shouted: "The thief will kill my companion, and the last general is willing to take revenge, and please allow him accordingly!! ”

Cao Cao originally wanted to find someone to try Yan Liang's catties again, but seeing Wei Xu so good, Cao Cao naturally wouldn't refuse. Seeing that Cao Cao had promised to go into battle, Wei Xu came to the front of the battle with his gun on his horse, and shouted: "How dare the thief behead my friend and give me a quick death!! ”

Yan Liang smiled disdainfully, and didn't take care of Wei Xu at all, Wei Xu saw this, and his heart was even more annoyed, and he stopped scolding, and beat the horse to take Yan Liang directly! Yan Liang snorted coldly with disdain, and went to meet the battle, and at the moment when the two exchanged horses, Yan Liang directly stabbed Wei Xu under the horse.

Cao Cao saw that Yan Liang had beheaded his two generals in a row, and he was also very angry in his heart, and shouted loudly: "Who dares to come forward to fight? ”

"The Last Will Go !!"

Xu Huang came out in response, and immediately stepped forward to meet Yan Liang, but although Xu Huang was brave, he was still not Yan Liang's opponent, and the two fought for twenty rounds, and Xu Huang was unable to parry the defeat and return to his own position.

Cao Jun's generals often learn from each other, they naturally know Xu Huang's ability, and now seeing that Yan Liang defeated Xu Huang in twenty rounds, everyone was immediately shocked, Cao Cao saw that the generals were discouraged, and the army's spirit was frustrated, knowing that this was not the time for a decisive battle, and hurriedly ordered to retreat. Yan Liang saw that Cao Cao's army was retreating but not chaotic, and he was worried that there would be an ambush behind Cao Cao's army, and he had already gained a lot from killing two Cao army generals today, so he did not send troops to pursue, and also ordered the army to return to the camp.

Cao Cao saw that Yan Liang beheaded the two generals under his command, his heart was depressed, and his expression was very bad, Xun You saw this, stepped forward and bowed: "Lord, a certain person is recommended, as long as this person comes out, he will definitely be able to match Yan Liang!" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked Xun You who recommended him, and Xun You replied: "Yan Liang is brave and good at fighting, if you want to deal with Yan Liang, all the generals in our army must be Guan Yu." ”

When Cao Cao heard this, his expression darkened, and he said: "I naturally know Guan Yu's ability, but compared to Yan Liang, I am more worried that Guan Yu will leave me after making meritorious service." ”

Xun You stroked his beard and smiled, and replied: "The lord is too worried, if Liu Bei is still alive, he will definitely go to Yuan Shao." If the lord ordered Guan Yu to lead the army to break Yuan Shao's army, after Yuan Shao learned of this, he would definitely have doubts in his heart to kill Liu Bei, if Liu Bei died, how could Guan Yu leave the lord? ”

When Cao Cao heard Xun You's words, the more he thought about it, the more likely this possibility became, and he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly asked Guan Yu to summon Guan Yu to come to the White Horse Battlefield to help.

After Guan Yu surrendered to Cao Cao, Cao Cao has always been very generous to Guan Yu, and Guan Yu has long wanted to repay his kindness by making contributions to Cao Cao. After receiving Cao Cao's military order, Guan Yu hurriedly said goodbye to his two sisters-in-law, lifted the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, rode on the red rabbit horse, and went straight to the White Horse battlefield.

Guan Yu sat down on the Red Rabbit Horse very fast, but in two days, Guan Yu came to the Cao Jun camp outside the White Horse City. Cao Cao saw Guan Yu arrive and said: "Yan Liang even beheaded the two generals under my command, who are brave and good at fighting, Cao is helpless, and specially invites Yun Chang to come to help me fight." ”

Guan Yu smiled proudly and said, "When Yan Liang comes, let me watch it." ”

Cao Cao saw that Guan Yu was confident, and hurriedly ordered the sergeant to set up a banquet to entertain Guan Yu.

Seeing this, Cao Cao took Guan Yu and the generals to watch Yan Liang's military formation on the top of the mountain, Cao Cao and Guan Yu sat next to the table together, and the generals stood around.

Cao Cao pointed to the formation of Yan Liang's army at the foot of the mountain, and saw that Yan Liang's army formation was clear, with guns and knives, and the array was tightly organized, which was terrifying, Cao Cao looked back and smiled, looked at Guan Yu and said: "Hebei soldiers and horses, so majestic, how is Yun Chang's view?" ”

Guan Yu glanced at the military formation under the mountain with disdain, and said: "In my opinion, the soldiers and horses of Hebei are just local chickens and dogs!" ”

Cao Cao laughed a few times, then pointed at Yan Liang again, and said: "Under the cover, the one wearing an embroidered robe and gold armor and holding a knife is Yan Liang, I don't know how Yun Chang looks at it." ”

Guan Yu raised his eyes, snorted coldly, and said, "I look at Yan Liang, like inserting a label to sell the first ear!" ”

Cao Cao smiled indifferently and said, "Yan Liang is brave, Yun Chang must not underestimate this person!" ”

Seeing that Cao Cao didn't believe his words, Guan Yu got up and bowed: "Guan Yu is not talented, I am willing to go to the army to take down Yan Liang's head and come to present it to the prime minister!! ”

When the generals heard Guan Yu's words, they were in an uproar, I'll wipe it, don't you brag so much, right?

Zhang Liao and Guan Yu had a good relationship, and hurriedly persuaded him: "There is no joke in the army, Yun Chang can't talk nonsense!" ”

"Prime Minister, watch me go and cut off this person's !!"

Guan Gong bowed his hand, lifted the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, turned over and rode on the red rabbit horse, and rushed straight towards Yan Liang's army along the mountain!

Guan Yu's horse was extremely fast, and before Yan Liang's soldiers could react, he had already killed in front of Yan Liang's army's formation, Guan Yu's phoenix eyes widened, his silkworm eyebrows were straight, and he directly entered Yan Liang's army formation.

There was no one in the Hebei army who was Guan Yu's enemy, and the military formation of the Hebei army was like a wave, which was directly split by Guan Yu's knife, Guan Yu went on a rampage all the way, and soon killed in front of Yan Liang's cover.

After Guan Yu saw Yan Liang, he went straight to Yan Liang's place to kill regardless of it, Yan Liang was resting under the cover, and when he saw Guan Yu rushing to kill, he asked urgently: "Who is coming??? ”

Guan Yu didn't pay attention to Yan Liang at all, and hit the horse again and sped up a few points to continue to kill, Yan Liang saw this, his heart was even more abrupt, and he shouted again: "Who is coming!! ”

Guan Yu sat down on the red rabbit horse very fast, and came to Yan Liang in an instant, Yan Liang was still asking who Guan Yu was at this time, and he didn't react at all to what happened.

The Qinglong Yanyue Knife in Guan Yu's hand was immediately chopped down, Yan Liang was caught off guard and couldn't resist at all, and was directly taken up by Guan Yu's hand and slashed the horse. After Guan Yu killed Yan Liang, regardless of the stunned Hebei soldiers around him, he dismounted and directly cut off Yan Liang's head and tied it to his horse's neck.

Guan Yu then flew on his horse, raised his knife and fought out of the Hebei army again, the whole process was really like entering a no-man's land!!
