44. What you are afraid of
After all, these concepts have been deposited by the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years, and have become the most ingrained things in their hearts, and if they want to completely change this concept, they must not let them die to the Han Society. And the most effective way is to be like Dong Zhuo and his subordinates, trampling the majesty of the royal family that was high above the Han Dynasty in the past, and crushing the hope and sustenance in their hearts, so that it is possible to make these enlightened people among the guardians come to serve.
People from poor backgrounds do not have such considerations and scruples. Because they basically did not enjoy the preferential treatment of these family scribes, they would not be loyal to the already terminally ill Han ruling class, and they may be more enthusiastic and yearning for allusions such as heroes in troubled times.
After figuring out these things, Wang Bo also understood why, in history, when Dong Zhuo was in turmoil with the Han Dynasty, the power of the clan represented by Yuan Shao rose rapidly, and it quickly mastered most of the Qing, Hebei, You, and four states. However, Cao Cao only dared to be a powerful minister to death, and did not dare to openly claim the emperor, and only after his son Cao Pi and other young Zhuang factions representing emerging forces grew up, the process of replacing the Han emperor was completed. As for Liu Bei, he finally took advantage of the situation to fulfill his long-cherished wish, but in the end, he made a chicken and a flying egg.
After Wang Bo said goodbye, he walked out with firm steps, and a frustrated voice came from behind him: "The grain and grass needed by the general have been prepared, and it is also a feat of sacrificing their lives to resist Hu for our soldiers!" ”
After listening to the frustrated words, Wang Bo stopped, and said without looking back: "Look at it with Bo!" This winter, Hu Qi will invade the territory on a large scale, and the three states of Hebei, Qingdao, and Zhu are also afraid that they will inevitably suffer from their disasters. Treasure! ”。
Seeing Wang Bo walking away, Frustrated Professor coughed lightly, the curtain of the suite at the back of the main house was lifted, Tian Feng and the trial duo walked out of it together, and after looking at each other for a moment, they both let out a long sigh.
However, Wang Bo, who had been waiting for a few days and returned in vain, had a heavy face on his face, and handed over the large amount of grain and grass given by the frustrated grant to Du Yuan to go to the northward team of Bai Huan and Zuo Zhangba, and instructed him to lead the wolf owl guard team to accompany and guard. led Xu Chu and the wolf owl guard team on the way home.
On the way, under the prodding of Pinghan and others, Wang Bo, who couldn't bear to be careless, decided to slow down his trip and travel to Jizhou counties along the way, so that he could observe more of the local customs and customs, and secondly, he also used this to dispel the irritability in his heart; The third is that they are not very worried about their Black Mountain Army, helping the old and the young, with their evil deeds in the early stage, it will be intolerable for the military and people of Jizhou, and if they encounter Zhao Yun and others again, they can also take care of it.
After passing by Xinghan Laozhai to reminisce, Wang Bo heard a message from the heralds: the Zhen family, who had been a merchant in Wuji County, Zhongshan Province, had specially greeted the white Black Mountain Army, sent a large amount of grain, grass, and materials, and gave a lot of help. After Wang Bo heard this, he smiled and decided to visit and thank him.
Wuji County is located in Jizhou, almost close to the center of the state, so Zhen mainly in Hebei, You, Qing and other areas of business, except for the earlier sent people to Xinghan City, after meeting Wang Bo, usually almost do not deal with the Xinghan army, this time to have such a big stroke, so that Wang Bo felt very surprised: the sky will not fall pie for no reason! Wang Bo also wanted to find out Zhen's intentions.
After arriving at Zhen's house, the Zhen family was enthusiastic and strongly invited Wang Bo and his party to stay at home for a few days. After thanking the Zhen family for their kindness, Wang Bo said that Xinghan City must be rewarded: all the gifts were compensated with Xinghan wine, and the settlement price was 50% of that of other caravans.
Zhen Yi, the head of the Zhen family with a goatee, resolutely refused, saying that this was a matter of duty, and it was done by respecting the Han army. Then after going around for a long time, he said his purpose: the Zhen family wanted to monopolize the sales right of Xinghan wine in Jizhou, which means that in the territory of Jizhou, Xinghan wine can only be sold by the Zhen family.
Regarding Zhen Yi's idea, Wang Bo didn't think about it for long, so he nodded and agreed. Then he put forward his two requirements: first, in the future, the Xinghan Army should open at least one wine shop in every county in Jizhou, and only sell Xinghan wine to door-to-door diners, and the price will be slightly higher than the market price, and the Zhen family must not interfere; Second, the Xinghan liquor shop was all opened in the name of the Zhen family, and the Zhen family could be given a percentage of the profits, but the Zhen family was not allowed to send personnel to interfere.
Zhen Yi also only thought for a while, probed Wang Bo's face with strange eyes, and after Wang Bo nodded tacitly, he immediately agreed, and the two agreed that the period was five years. Zhen Yi repeatedly promised to take care of the establishment of Xinghan Liquor Restaurant, and entrusted his eldest son Zhen Yu, who had just become an adult, to Wang Bo to train and train on his behalf, and both of them were very happy.
Who knows what this is afraid of, what it will come.
On this day, when he was having a good conversation with the gentle Zhen Yi, the Zhen family hurriedly brought in the heralds who often came from the Bai Huan Army, and reported to Wang Bo with sweat on his head: When Bai Huan's headquarters arrived in Tang County today, they encountered a surprise attack by a large number of unknown officers and troops, and lost a lot of baggage in a hurry.
Wang Bo was furious when he heard this, and he took the case and said: "The hot-blooded son of my Han family went to the border to plug the imperial hu's plan, how can he allow Xiaoxiao to take advantage of the fire to rob?" If I don't kill this person, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart! After speaking, he refused Zhen Yi's proposal to send his family to help, and led Xu Chu, Zhen Yu and others to hurry to the place of the incident.
Under the leadership of the heralds, the anxious Wang Bo hurried along the way, a journey of hundreds of miles, and it only took less than an hour to arrive.
Sitting on a tall war horse, you can see the battlefield neighing from afar. When I got closer and closer, I saw the white people wearing all kinds of costumes, stationed on a small mound in a disorderly manner, with old and weak women and children in the middle, and black mountain young men with various weapons in their hands outside, and a defensive line surrounded by deer carts and various materials on the outermost periphery, and a lot of white corn had flowed out of some pockets.
Du Yuan and the other wolf guards formed a group, and they were circling around the periphery of the Black Mountain Army, constantly expelling the officers and soldiers who were trying to get closer. And Bai Huan and Zuo Zhangba kept shouting in the Black Mountain tribes, cheering for their people.
The officers and soldiers around were fully clothed and armored, led by a military general in shining armor, divided into several groups, some armed with spears and trying to rush into the Black Mountain army, others armed with bows and arrows, constantly shooting whistling arrows into the opposite crowd, causing a burst of screams.
In addition, there were 100 well-equipped officers and cavalry, roaring between the two sides, like tigers staring at their prey, waiting for an opportunity to pounce and bite off a piece of meat. Especially the military generals led by him, with superb riding skills, holding a longbow, galloping across the arrow without missing a shot, every time the bowstring flicks, it will take away a fresh life of the Montenegrin army.
The encirclement was getting smaller and smaller, and every time Du Yuan and them rushed over, the officers and troops who were eager to try nearby would avoid it a little, but they forced towards the Black Mountain Army again and again after they left. Du Yuan led the wolf guards to fight fires everywhere, exhausted.
Originally, when he first saw the battlefield, Wang Bo was faintly dissatisfied with the Wolf Owl Guard B Team: the elite team he had worked so hard to assemble placed great hopes on it, and with less than a thousand officers and soldiers, they could be helpless?
Now it seems that they are concerned about the safety of thousands of Montenegrin people, so they have to fall into this situation of being passively beaten, but unable to fight back. Moreover, whether the officers and soldiers are commanding generals or ordinary soldiers, they have obviously suffered the losses of the wolf guards, otherwise they would not try to avoid meeting them.
When they got closer, they found that the two commanders of the officers and soldiers had obviously experienced a lot of battle formations, and first kept shooting and killing the Montenegrin army on the periphery, disturbing their morale; Then they clamored and approached slowly, forming a huge psychological pressure on the Montenegrin army in the encirclement, if it weren't for the mediation and encouragement of the wolf guards and Bai Huan, with the usual combat effectiveness of the Montenegrin army, I am afraid it would have collapsed and scattered.
However, it seems that if this continues, it is obvious that the collapse of the Montenegrin army is inevitable, and some cowards begin to crowd and shout indiscriminately amid the screams of their comrades who have been hit by arrows beside them.
To say that the combat effectiveness of this Black Mountain Army really made Wang Bo frown, not only was the equipment extremely poor, but also carried a bunch of oil bottles. There are all kinds of knives, guns and sticks in his hands, but there are not many shields used to defend against arrows, not to mention armor and war horses, but under the indiscriminate arrows of the obscene officers and soldiers, seeing the people around him continue to scream and die, but they are powerless to resist and fight back, and they can hold on until now, as an army where soldiers may have been peasants yesterday, it is already good.
Seeing this, Wang Bo, who rushed to the front with Xu Chu, had already come less than a hundred paces away from the enemy army, and also attracted the attention of the officers and soldiers. What do you want? The army of the Han River is here to suppress bandits! Idlers and others quickly retreat! Otherwise, you will not be forgiven! ”
"What a big breath! I am Xinghan County, and Wang Bo is also! You are shameless here, is it possible that you don't know that this Montenegrin army has been subjugated to the Wuxing Han army? Wang Bo asked in a voice that was brighter than his.
"Xinghan County Order? Where is sacred? I only heard that the Xinghan City in Dingxiang County was built by moths and outcasts! The military general on the opposite side said disdainfully.
"Phew! My Xing Han Erlang are all hot-blooded men, and I don't know how many people go to the border of my big Han to kill Hu Gou! Its great feats have shocked the past and the present! How can you be slandered by the rats? I have come to ask you: Where did you protect the people and humiliate you? ”
"Humph! Boast! Mere moths and bandits dare to call them great feats? Kill Liao Liaohu people and dare to proclaim themselves Xinghan? As for the rumors, I should laugh and abandon them! The warriors of Wuhejian exterminated the black mountain moth thieves in Jizhou, so as to protect the common people! ……”
"Hahaha......" Wang Bo, who laughed angrily, picked up the halberd in his hand, suddenly pointed at the enemy general, and roared sharply: "Ignorant horseman!" How can I Xinghan's good son and son allow Er to wantonly slander! Watch how the warriors of Xinghan take the first level! Where are the Wolf Owl Guards? ”。
"The last general!" Zhou Cang and the others replied in unison.
"Break through the enemy siege with me! And then its shameless cavalry slaughtered them! Wang Bo ordered loudly.
"Whoa! Rest assured! Please watch in the army how we cut off the enemy's head and dedicate it to the lord! Zhou Cang patted his chest and shouted.
Subsequently, Wang Bo and his entourage were led by Xu Chu, and under the escort of the wolf owl guard, they pulled out a few arrows shot by the enemy, and broke through their thin encirclement without much effort, and entered the Black Mountain tribe that was struggling to support, leaving more than a dozen corpses with missing heads and broken limbs for the peripheral officers and soldiers.
The bravery and ruthlessness of these people caused great panic in the hearts of the officers and soldiers who were already high morale.
Since following the two generals, whether it is the mountain bandits with their teeth and claws, or the large plundering Black Mountain Army, they are almost all about to collapse at the touch of a button, and they are invincible! Even if he encounters a difficult character, with the cooperation of the two generals' sharpshooters and arrows, he will be in a different place after a few rounds.
And today, this black mountain moth thief is full of evil doors, except for the ordinary thieves who are under huge pressure, even though their companions around them continue to scream and fall, they still fight to the death. Especially the cavalry generals who were constantly rushing to kill in the periphery, with superb martial arts and skillful cooperation, rushing into the official army formation was a big kill, and even the two generals who regarded it as a god by the soldiers almost suffered a big loss under their hands, so they had to adopt the strategy of pressing step by step, hoping that the black mountain thieves would scatter in a panic, and the officers and soldiers would just chase and kill.
Seeing that it is about to be completed, who knows that a few thieves will be killed halfway, and depending on the situation, it is even more powerful than the previous ones, especially which one is the head, the eyes are like copper bells, the roar is like a tiger's roar, brandishing a bloody long knife, without any moves, sweeping left and right, everything that touches, whether it is a weapon, armor or a human head, all fly into the sky.
Damn! Is this still human? Why not call it a humanoid beast! The fear that rose from the bottom of their hearts occupied the hearts of all the officers and soldiers, and for the first time, they had doubts about the two godlike generals who led them: Can they lead them to victory?
The officers and cavalry generals looked at the frightened soldiers on the field, and their eyebrows were tightly pressed together, and they had the intention to give up this upcoming battle achievement, but they couldn't make up their minds.
If they encounter a slightly difficult stubble this time, they will retreat without a fight, it will not only be a blow to their own elite team, which has just grown up, will win, but also will make them develop the psychology of escaping in the face of strong chaos in the future battles, and let their desire to build a tiger army become empty talk. Besides, his youthful and vigorous state of mind does not allow himself to do this! Even if it is a little heavier, it should be taken down!
Thinking of this, the young Han army cavalry general raised his hand to straighten the red tassel officer on his head, shook the shining scale armor on his body left and right, and felt that there was nothing wrong, and shouted at the short officer who was commanding the foot soldiers: "Virtuous brother! Quickly lead Erlang to break the enemy formation! Give these people to be brothers! After speaking, he shook the spear in his hand, the head of the spear trembled, his legs lightly knocked on the belly of the horse, and the cyan war horse with the intention of the psychic master let out a low roar, and rushed straight to Zhou Cang, who was slashing and killing the officials and soldiers.
The stout officer with a strong bow in his hand was angry because of the death of his subordinates, and when he heard this, he understood that this Black Mountain army was strong and weak, and if he wanted to win the battle, he could only crush the enemy first, and then lead the crowd to besiege and kill his generals. At the moment, all the energy is devoted to how to break through the enemy formation.
After watching carefully, I was shocked to find that with the subsequent dozen horsemen, with a furious posture and easily slaughtered into the battle circle, the original morale of the Montenegrin army, which was on the verge of collapse, self-confidence swelled like a spring breeze blowing green mountains, and the timid were no longer cowardly and panicked, and the bold had begun to resist the arrows while shouting to ......cheer for their companions.
The stout officer knew that if this continued, when the Black Mountain Moth Thieves in the encirclement had regained their morale, and under the leadership of these skilled generals, they would take the initiative to attack, even if they could not defeat their own troops in one fell swoop, and the efforts of the past few days would be in vain. Now it is only possible to change this passive situation by the elder brother who first drags the enemy generals and leads the infantry to fight the casualties into the enemy formation.
Immediately send someone to give the order: gather the scattered soldiers together, divide them into three routes, and under the leadership of their respective military marquis, attack the defensive line of the Montenegrin army.
