Chapter 172: Entering the Yamamoto Mistake
Ruyi and the other three were all shocked when they heard the words of Yicheng, the imperial court has used soldiers in Si Li, Yanzhou has been more than a year, the place of Si Li should have been too peaceful, and there is a large army stationed there, and there are countless policies to benefit the people, even if the previous chaos cannot be completely reversed for a while, at least it should be public and orderly, how can it make trouble, Luoyang is still like this, and other remote counties and counties, isn't it even more rampant!
Ziqing was puzzled and asked: "There are heavy troops stationed in Luoyang, and Lord Wang Ji is even more capable of governing the ministers, how can he raise bandits?" ”
Yi Cheng shook his head and sighed: "Gongzi doesn't know, these bandits are not born, mainly because the imperial court uses troops to the south, and there are countless soldiers around Luoyang Sili, only the Tuntian army is still idle, and most of the standing army has been withdrawn. Some lawbreakers have a fluke because of this, form a gang, gather in the mountains, rest at sunrise and sunset, often commit crimes around Sili, the people of Sili are deeply affected, Wang Ji is concerned about the safety of the people, and has to issue a curfew order as a last resort. ”
Ruyi was very disappointed with the current situation in Luoyang, and heard that the bandits in Luoyang were rampant, so he had a heart of grievance, and said angrily: "The bandits disturb the people, but the government is powerless, and they don't think about suppressing the bandits to protect the territory and the people, but they just issue a curfew, which just silences the people, and what harm does it do to the bandits, it is extremely incompetent!" Does Yi Cheng know how many bandits are in the mountains? ”
Yi Cheng saw that this woman had a very high status, and one of the two people beside her was a genuine general with a seal, and the other was a disciple of a high family at a glance, but it seemed that there was no disrespect before this woman, which showed that her origin was very extraordinary, and replied respectfully: "The bandit gods are haunted, often wandering around the counties, and leaving with each blow, and there are not many usable clues, but looking at the places attacked by their troops, they are all slaughtered, and the local guards have nothing to do with them, according to the number of bandits reported by various counties and counties, the total is probably tens of thousands." ”
Ziqing sneered again and again, and said: "Wang Ji claims to be a capable official, Luoyang has been in war for many years, and only has a permanent population of more than 100,000, but tens of thousands of bandits appeared for no reason, is it that the people of Luoyang are different from other places, they don't want to be stable and rich, they just want to gather mountains and forests to make chaos?" I think it's an excuse made by the county guards for their own incompetence, and they lie about the number of bandits! ”
Yi Cheng smiled bitterly and said: "Gongzi is too worried, Luoyang officials are transferred from Bingzhou, Jizhou and other places by Lord Wang Ji, how can they lie about the military situation, there are many bandits for two reasons, one is because Taiping Dao has been preaching for many years, and there are countless remnants of the Yellow Turban who have gone mad to follow around, gathering in the mountains and forests everywhere, hundreds of large and small organizations, and the number of people is really objective. The second is that Cao Cao was defeated that year, and his army of more than 100,000 people was scattered like birds and beasts, mixed in the Yellow Turban strongholds everywhere. Now it is the time when Cheng is using troops in Jingzhou, the garrison of Sili is empty, and the bandits see that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, so there are people of insight who climb high and shout, integrating this large and small hundreds of forces in one place, among which there are many Cao Cao defeated and escaped from the generals, and the combat power is not weaker than the standing garrison of the government. ”
Ruyi and the other three of them each glanced at each other, and they were all shocked in their hearts, if they hadn't come to Luoyang for a temporary rest, I am afraid that this Luoyang bandit would not have been known. Now the imperial court is using troops in Jingzhou, the army has no time to take care of anything else, although the imperial court is now directly leading and annexing the state, Jizhou, Youzhou, Sili and Yanzhou, it can be said that the territory is vast, but this time the use of troops, the soldiers that can be used have been exhausted, even if the Jizhou, Yanzhou and other places that are frequently in Cao Cao only have the strength of the self-defending city, it is really difficult to draw more troops to suppress bandits.
Although the curfew is only a symptom but not a cure, it can also make the bandits unable to start, reduce unprovoked casualties, and after the imperial court captures Jingzhou, it will naturally be able to free up its hands to exterminate the bandits in the mountains.
Ziqing sighed: "The world rises and falls, and the people bear the brunt. It's just that I pity the people of this department, who should have enjoyed peace, but they still have to suffer from this gangsterism, when will this chaos end? ”
Yan Chao saw Chen Ziqing sighing about the current affairs, so he didn't want to be listened to by others, and said: "Yicheng has worked hard, I'll leave tomorrow, I have a lot of trouble today, I think you still have important things to do, so go and get busy elsewhere." ”
Yi Cheng originally wanted to say a few more words, but when he saw that he had issued an eviction order, he took his leave.
After Yi Cheng left, Ruyi was still indignant, and said: "How dare Wang Wei trap the people and ignore the dire situation, he concealed the situation privately, he fell into the name of a loyal monarch and a country, but where did the hundreds of thousands of people in Luoyang be placed, it is your father's lifelong ambition to protect the people and protect the people, if they know the situation in Luoyang, how can they abandon it." ”
Yan Chao said: "This kind of major event is in charge, tomorrow we will leave for Anyi, report the situation in Luoyang truthfully, and think that the court will deal with it properly." ”
Ziqing shook his head and sighed: "Brother Longcheng takes it for granted, the imperial court is in an embarrassing situation now, and there are no available soldiers, according to what Commander Ding Xu said, Madame has allocated the only emergency cavalry in Bingzhou to General Guo Yan to rush to the aid of the grain road, and even the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion have been transferred for most of it, where can I take care of the little bandits in Luoyang?" ”
Yan Chao naturally knew the current situation of the imperial court, but he just comforted everyone, and said with regret: "Then we can only wait for the imperial court to use troops against Jingzhou, and then come to eradicate the Luoyang bandits." ”
Ziqing said: "The bandits came so strangely, it was too opportune, and there were many Cao Cao's defeated generals among the bandits, I think the bandits were so violent, there must be Cao Cao's meticulous work in it." ”
Ruyi said angrily: "We have suffered heavy losses in the south, and even General Mao Ling died on the battlefield, which is all thanks to Cao Cao, and now he is making trouble in Luoyang, and his heart can be punished." Why don't we go into the mountains and exterminate this gang of bandits, which can be regarded as a harm to the people of Luoyang, but also cut off Cao Cao's minions, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone. ”
Yan Chao was both shocked and angry, there were tens of thousands of bandits in the mountains, how could they be exterminated with only these hundreds of iron cavalry, and in the mountains and forests, the cavalry had no advantage at all, and the bandits were hidden everywhere, and the enemy was dark and clear, and it was really impossible to prevent it. Hurriedly persuaded: "No, the enemy is outnumbered, how can we win, besides, I am ordered by the prince to escort you north to Anyi, if there is an accident on the way, how can I explain to my aunt?" ”
Ruyi said disdainfully: "If my brother is afraid, please go back to Anyi, as the child of the prime minister, I should think about the people of the Han Dynasty, and I will never dare to turn a blind eye and abandon it." ”
Yan Chao was speechless by her, he was also heartbroken by the Luoyang bandits, and he had the ambition to exterminate them, but Ruyi's identity was really valuable, and he couldn't tolerate the slightest difference.
Since there is a huge disparity in the number of troops, it is not possible to take the bandits lightly, so we should escort Ruyi back as before, and then report the bandit situation in a timely manner.
This is the safest policy, if as Ruyi said, regardless of the enemy's situation and rashly enter the mountain, I am afraid that it will be difficult to succeed, but will fall into it, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
But he has never been good at words, he was stimulated by Ruyi's words, he was in a hurry, and it was even more difficult to say it clearly, he only knew that this danger must not be as she wished, and said anxiously: "If Qiling insists on going her own way, don't blame your brother for forcibly kidnapping you back." ”
Ruyi was furious when he heard this, and said angrily: "You will come to tie me, I want to see what you can do to tie me." ”
Ziqing saw that the two of them had an argument, and persuaded with a wry smile: "What are you doing at this time, is there anything to sit down and say no?" Why hurt each other's friendship! ”
Ruyi snorted angrily and said: "Where does it make sense with this elm head, come on, come on, I'll see what means you can use to tie me up." ”
Yan Chao's face changed for a while, originally he just blurted out in a hurry, Ruyi is the prime minister's beloved daughter, although he has the name of a cousin with himself, but in the end, there is a huge disparity in identity, no matter how sincere he is, where does he really dare to tie her up? Moreover, Ruyi has pressed him with riding and shooting for half a point since he was a child, and he is the pearl of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he can be taught by Junhou, General Zilong and others, and now he doesn't know what kind of realm his skills have reached, if he really fights, he is not at all sure that he will be able to subdue her.
At this time, Ruyi caught the handle, which only embarrassed him.
Ziqing laughed secretly, Yan Chao was a general with five big and three thick, and there was no way to take a little woman, it seems that everything in the world has its own restraint, seeing that Yan Chao was deflated, Ziqing felt a dark feeling in his heart for no reason.
However, Ziqing also knew that Ruyi was by no means a bluff, from the valley of Songshan Mountain, Ruyi fought thousands of Cao troops alone, killing most of the enemy with his own hands, and in the army of ten thousand horses, thousands of elite Cao troops could not be stopped, and saved the lives of himself and hundreds of auxiliary soldiers with the momentum of the wind and clouds. At that time, his demeanor was like a god descending from heaven, and since then it has been imprinted in Ziqing's heart, and it is indelible.
Seeing that the atmosphere was frozen for a while, Ruyi and Yan Chao did not back down, and they each looked at each other angrily, Ziqing had to speak and persuade him: "I think what Qiling said is not unreasonable, if we return to the state, it is naturally the safest, but the people of Luoyang will fall into dire straits, now there are no soldiers available in the court, and the prince and the marquis are in Jingzhou and Guan Yu are fighting, it is difficult to scruple in a short time, if the Luoyang bandits take time, it will inevitably develop and grow, and then raise bandits for trouble, Luoyang will be in chaos, once the Central Plains is in chaos, Inevitably, there will be ill-intentioned people from other states and counties to respond, and when the imperial court is divided into two, and Jingzhou is thousands of miles away, it is difficult to help each other, and Cao Cao and Liu Bei are eyeing each other, and the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
Yan Chao heard Ziqing's words, and was shocked into a cold sweat, if it is really as he said, this Luoyang bandit is not an itch on the skin, but a big problem for the henchmen, if the situation really develops to this point, he is sacrificing his life and saying that he must not walk in the mountains. There were still doubts in his heart: "If it is really as Ziqing said, this Luoyang bandit has to be eliminated, but there is a huge difference between the strength of me and the bandits, and if I attack rashly, wouldn't it be to hit the stone with an egg and give my life in vain, which will not help much to the current situation." ”
Ziqing said with a smile: "The thieves are known as tens of thousands, but in my opinion, they are not of that scale, otherwise they would have gathered to attack the city a long time ago, why hide in the mountains and forests, and only take advantage of the night to act?" Moreover, many of the bandits are the remnants of the Yellow Turban, although Cao Cao's defeated troops participated in it, but after all, they are just a rabble, although the soldiers led by the general are only a few hundred, but they are all the elite of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and they are all people who have survived a hundred battles. Moreover, the thieves are scattered all over the mountain, it is difficult to gather to support each other, and the number of bandits that our army can face may not be as many as imagined. In addition, Luoyang still has Lord Wang Ji in charge, and there are still more than 10,000 Tuntian soldiers under his account, if we can persuade Lord Wang Ji to send troops to support, we have a very good chance of winning. ”
Yan Chao's expression was shocked, Ziqing's words were the truth, it sounded very tempting, since the Luoyang bandits had to be eliminated, he would no longer abide by the previous generals, when the current situation was the most important, his eyes turned, as if he had made a decision, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, as Ziqing said, tomorrow I will go to see Lord Wang Ji, the captain of Sili, and ask him for reinforcements to overcome the bandits in the mountains." It's just that Ruyi's status is precious, and you must not easily get into danger, so you can live temporarily in the library translation. ”
Ruyi originally heard Ziqing's words, and had already decided to go to Bishan to suppress the bandits, and then Yan Chao agreed to suppress the bandits, and was even more happy, and was holding back a lot of strength to re-enter the battle formation, Fang lived up to what he had learned for ten years, but when he heard Yan Chao's last words, he actually asked her to be on standby in the pavilion, which really made her laugh angrily, and said speechlessly: "How dare my brother despise me so much, don't you think that you are stronger than me?" ”
Yan Chao was really unable to deal with this eldest lady, so he rarely complimented: "This is a mistake, the prince is brave, there is no opponent in the world, but he has repeatedly attacked the city and captured the territory, but he is the vanguard of the general, why does the prince only sit in the army?" Just because the status of the prince is precious, not everyone is worthy of the prince and the marquis to take action personally, Qiling's skills are much better than mine, but in this battle I am the general, Qiling is the commander, Ziqing is the military advisor, this charge into battle, or I will come. ”
It was the first time Ruyi saw this cousin talk so much, and he was still complimenting himself, but it was difficult to adapt for a while, he was cold, and stared at Yan Chao strangely: "I'm the commander?" ”
Yan Chao said solemnly: "Naturally, you are the child of the prince and the prince, and your status is the highest, so you should naturally be the commander." ”
After speaking, he glanced at Ziqing secretly, of course Ziqing understood his intentions, and immediately understood: "The position of commander is none other than Qiling." ”
Ruyi was pleasantly surprised, the first time as the commander of an army, I don't know what to pay attention to, what to do so that the generals can not see the flaws, and make a look of often being a commander, and must not let the thieves look down on it and hurt morale.
The three of them discussed until late at night, and then went back to the house to rest.
The next day, Yan Chao went to the Luoyang Administrative Office to ask Wang Ji to see Wang Ji, and asked Wang Ji to temporarily dispatch thousands of soldiers from Tuntian to help him, and even explained the hidden dangers of banditry to him.
Wang Ji has always been wise, and naturally knows that the bandit situation cannot be delayed, but now there are no soldiers available, and the Tuntian soldiers are disarmed and returned to the field, and under the temporary requisition, how much combat power can be imagined. Moreover, there is no general in Luoyang, although he is resourceful, but no one leads the army to resist the enemy, so he can only defend passively, waiting for the opportunity to change.
At this time, seeing that this young general was born in the Prime Minister's Mansion, just looking at his figure, he knew that he was brave and unmatched, and with him coming out, Wang Ji was naturally happy to smile, and readily agreed to Yan Chao's request, and ordered 5,000 Tuntian soldiers, with all the generals, and allocated countless ordnance to prepare for the needs of the army.
Yan Chao, Ruyi, Ziqing and others met and camped in the northern suburbs of Luoyang according to the agreement, and all three of them commanded thousands of troops for the first time.
I saw that although these Tuntian soldiers were in charge of farming, they did not put down the spears and halberds in their hands, and they all had a clear eye for chopping and teasing, and they obviously had not relaxed their training for many years.
Yan Chao followed Lu Bu to fight for many days, and naturally knew how to command the flag order, and personally passed the order with the flag, seeing that the army was neat and orderly, and there was no panic, he couldn't help but be settled.
Although Ruyi has never been in the army, she has excellent grades in the military department of the academy, and she also has some experience in the battle array drill, but this real soldier and real gun are completely different from the sand table, and the flag order is attacking everywhere, which is shocking, but it cannot be seen in the academy.
The army trained in the northern suburbs for three days, and during the three days, Ruyi and others planned a detailed strategy for attacking Bishan.
First, with an army of 5,000 people, besiege the passes and passages of the mountain in various places, so that the thieves would not flee in a hurry, and they could not help each other, and divide the several peaks of the mountain into blocks, and then attack each of the dangerous places with heavy troops, gather and annihilate them with superior forces, and break them through.
Although the thieves claim to be tens of thousands, they can only fight on their own, and cannot attack and defend each other, and defeat is already doomed.
And this breakthrough into the enemy camp, with the heavy task of elite raids, is naturally none other than Yan Chao.
Three days later, Ruyi came to Taiwan to swear a blood oath to tell the sky. The soldiers of the army will see the handsome woman for the first time, and their strange thoughts are difficult to stop for a while, but seeing that she behaves freely and freely, without the slightest shyness of her daughter's family, when she is bloody, the short sword cuts through her five fingers, and her eyes do not blink, so that the demeanor is enough to impress the five thousand army, and the cheers are like thunder.
On that day, the 5,000-strong army sealed off the entire mountain road with lightning speed, and stationed heavy troops in the meantime, so that no one of the bandits escaped. The rest of the thing is the most dangerous, that is, to break into the mountain with elite soldiers and break the bandits besieging the mountain.
Ruyi has been a commander for a few days, and he is naturally too addicted, and at this time, seeing that Yan Chao is about to lead the elite to go on the expedition, he has a generous and tragic momentum, and he can't help but say with hot eyes: "It's better for my brother to be the boss, and I will be the general." ”
Yan Chao's face sank and said: "Nonsense, you are so good to command the army, if I am not defeated by the thieves, it will send out arrows, you must come to help in time." ”
Ruyi also knew that it was really dangerous to change generals at this time, so he had to say stupidly: "Brother, take care!" ”
Yan Chao only reciprocated with his fists, and did not respond, leading hundreds of elites of the Prime Minister's Mansion, each holding a strong shield and heavy armor, towards the place where the enemy situation had long been discovered in the mountains and forests, killing like a tiger out of the cage.
If Yan Chao's figure disappeared into the mountains and forests, he couldn't hide the worry in his eyes: "The enemy is dark and I am clear, although my brother is brave, but after all, it is difficult to prevent hidden arrows, and this trip is probably very dangerous." ”
