Chapter 32: A long wait
Dong Zhuo's relocation of the capital means that the war is about to come to an end.
Zhang Kang hardened his heart and forcibly accelerated the march. When the scouts reported that Cao Cao was chasing Dong Zhuo's army alone, and was blocked by Xu Rong and LΓΌ Bu, the Taishou of Xingyang, Zhang Kang finally led his army to the destination - Beihai County.
Beihai belongs to Qingzhou, divided into seven counties including Qi County, Jinan, Le'an, Beihai, Chengyang, Donglai, and Pingyuan, which is the nest of Beihai Taishou Kongrong.
Zhang Kang's goal was to rob the territory of this famous loyal minister in history.
At that time, Qingzhou was deeply attacked and persecuted by the Yellow Turban thieves. The land boundary is ten rooms and nine empty, and there are not many people.
This is precisely the reason why Zhang Kang takes a fancy to Qingzhou.
After years of war, the people naturally suffered a lot, and the family lords entrenched in this land also killed the Yellow Turban thieves, and they were resisting one by one.
On this day, Zhang Kang's army came to the city, and Zhang Liao and Zhu Ling had already opened the city gate to welcome Zhang Kang into the city.
At this time, Zhang Kang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although it was slow to drag men and women, fortunately they still arrived one step ahead of Kong Rong.
News from the scouts earlier:
On that day, the prince Sun Jian flew to Luoyang, looking at the flames in the distance, black smoke covering the ground, two or three hundred miles, and there were no chickens and dogs.
Sun Jian sent troops to extinguish the fire, and ordered all the princes to wait for their horses in the wasteland.
Cao Cao immediately came to see Yuan Shao and persuaded Yuan Shao to wave his army in pursuit.
I didn't want Yuan Shao to reject Cao Cao's proposal on the grounds that the soldiers were tired and it would be useless to advance.
Cao Cao replied to the major princes, hoping to get others to join him in the attack. When the princes saw that the alliance leader did not move, they did not want to be such fools.
It's not hunting to catch up, that's Dong Zhuo!
The ferocity of the Xiliang Army is obvious to all, and they have not won the unanimous opinion of the other princes, so isn't it looking for death when they send troops alone!
At that time, Cao Cao was furious and said: "The erection is not enough and the plan! "Angry out of the account.
Later, he led more than 10,000 troops, led Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Li Dian, and Le Jin, and came to catch Dong thieves in the starry night. This chase almost cost him his life......
That night, a sergeant told Sun Jian: "There are five-colored rays of light in the south of the hall from the well. β
Sun Jian felt very strange, and called the sergeant to light a torch and go down to the well to salvage.
Accidentally, he picked up the corpse of a woman and made a palace-like outfit, with a bag under his head.
Sun Jian took a look at it, and there was a small vermilion box inside, locked with a gold lock. When opened, it was a jade seal. About four inches in circumference, engraved with five dragons on the button, a corner is missing, inlaid with gold, and there are eight characters of seal inscription at the bottom: "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity." β
Sun Jian got this jade seal, he couldn't believe it, and asked Cheng Pu for verification.
Cheng Pu insisted: "There is no doubt about it, this jade seal of the country is also." It is said that this national seal was the only one to be seen when the ten permanent servants rebelled, and it should be this one. β
Sun Jian was overjoyed, that is, he collected it privately.
Legend has it that the person who got this jade seal is the honor of the Ninety-Five.
This thing must only be obtained by one person, and since God chose him, then what else is there to say.
Who thinks that a soldier in the army is a native of Yuan Shao Township, and he wants to take advantage of this to be a vote, so he steals out of the camp overnight and reports to Yuan Shao's ears.
The next day, Sun Jian came to see Yuan Shao to make a speech.
How could Yuan Shao let him go, and said directly: "We raise troops to fight thieves, but we are to eliminate harm for the country." It is necessary to know the jade seal, the treasure of the imperial court. Once the public has obtained it, it should be left in the alliance leader for the public. waited for Dong Zhuo to be executed and returned to the imperial court. What is the intention of hiding it now? β
That Sun Jian just didn't admit it, and everyone was helpless for a while.
Yuan Shao saw that Sun Jian did not comply, so he simply pushed the whistleblower out to testify. Sun Jian was furious and drew his sword to cut the betrayer.
How could such an important witness be cut off by Sun Jian? Yuan Shao also hurriedly drew his sword, and the two sides were on the verge of breaking out.
All the princes came forward to persuade the two of them. Sun Jian immediately got on his horse and left Luoyang.
At this point, the princes of the Sixteenth Route had different aspirations and found excuses to evacuate.
Within a few days, the vigorous alliance finally came to an end......
As soon as the Beihai Taishou Kong Rong led his army back halfway, he received news from the scouts under his rule.
Zhang Kang, the brave Zhonglang general, led the army to capture Beihai thousands of miles away, occupying half of Qingzhou......
Kong Rong only felt that his chest was clenched and his eyes were black.
How's that going to be?
Who is Zhonglang General Zhang Kang? How could he not know.
Luoyang is also evil.
can be as famous as Dong Zhuo, it can be seen that he is by no means a good person.
Kong Rong couldn't understand why he chose this barren and desolate place under his own rule when the world was so big?
It's one thing to think about it, it's a big deal, and you have to face it bravely......
Kong Rong hurriedly ordered to go home as fast as possible.
Late March.
Kong Rong's army approached Beihai County for thirty miles.
There were already scouts who reported to Zhang Kang.
"I've been waiting for a long time!" Zhang Kang got up from the table and took Yu Ban Zhu Ling straight to the city tower.
He's annoyed too!
After entering Beihai County, he immediately asked Zhang Liao, Chun Yuqiong, and Bao Xin to each lead a part to take the surrounding three cities of Pingchang, Zhangqiu, and Linzi, forming a triangle with Beihai County.
The so-called lonely city does not defend ...... Uh-huh! That's not a reason.
Zhang Kang wanted to know, he owned the land of four cities, and his power radiated hundreds of miles, could he be regarded as a hegemon?
As a result, the bullshit system was silent, and Zhang Kang wanted to cry without tears.
On the city floor, Zhang Kang sat in the city pavilion, tasting the tea stalk that didn't know what to taste. There are two fierce tigers guarding the left and the right, and they are very comfortable.
"It's time to find someone to try to stir up some tea."
Zhang Kang spat out rough so-called tea leaves on the ground.
This is still the untreated raw tea that he specially asked the tea merchant to buy. He really couldn't get used to drinking the fragrant tea made from various materials in this year......
In the distance, sand and dust rose from the sky. An army was coming towards him like ants.
"The art of war is cloudy: ten are to surround it, five to attack it, and multiple to divide it. The spies reported that Kong Rong's army numbered less than 20,000 men. Tell me, how do they play? How do we play? β
Zhang Kang put down the teacup slowly, and by the way, he tested Zhu Ling.
No matter how fierce the tiger general is, he has not experienced all kinds of cruel scenes, and he is a peerless famous general as soon as he comes out, which is definitely a big fool.
If you get their results, you will be able to live with peace of mind in the future.
At present, the three cities of Pyeongchang, Zhangqiu, and Linzi are each stationed with 4,000 soldiers, and he still has 8,000 people in his hands.
"General, the last general thinks that Kong Rong can only lead troops under the city to fight today. If you want to attack the city, it will take about ten days to prepare. β
Yu Ban thought about it and took a step forward and said.
"What about us?"
"We ......"
Zhu Ling was anxious, and immediately stepped forward, "General, just give me 4,000 people, go out and kill them and turn them over, and the matter will be over......"
"It's good to have a fighting spirit. What do you think? β
Zhang Kang naturally will not attack the heart of his subordinates. Will the one who dare not fight still be the general!
"The last general thinks that it is better to hold on to the city and wait for the opportunity. Let's stop by dampening their spirits. β
Yu Ban thinks:
These sergeants are back to save their families, and now that the murderous intent is monstrous, it's right to avoid their edge first!
When they are tired and tired, it is not too late to find an opportunity to rush out again.
