Chapter Forty-Five: How Can I Rely on Relocating Tibet?
In a sense, the area of Hewu, which is located about 200 miles west of Chang'an, is constantly changing.
In terms of the circumference of four or five miles, about 0.25 square kilometers in later generations, this is undoubtedly an area with a huge construction area, and it can even be called a small city, because 0.25 square kilometers is equal to 250,000 square meters, which is equal to 375 acres, and this means that the average of four or five thousand people up and down in Hewu is only a dozen people to occupy one acre of land, but it seems a little too wide.
But that's not the case.
First of all, there is an independent core building area in the dock fort, with independent inner walls, pavilions, and gardens, in which Dong Zhuo himself, as well as his family members, staff, and concubines, only Dong Zhuo's most trusted guards and subordinates can go freely, and ordinary soldiers can't enter.
Secondly, the rammed earth walls outside the dock fort are too thick, and together with the supporting defensive measures such as the ditch and the passage behind the inner wall, it undoubtedly occupies a large amount of construction area.
There is also a storage area...... Don't forget, Dong Zhuo has accumulated a lot of gold and silver wealth and grain, cloth and other materials here, in order to loot wealth, he not only used the relocation of the capital to publicly plunder public and private property in Henan, but even after arriving in Guanzhong, he also let Si Lixiao Lieutenant severely punish the law and force the rich families in Guanzhong to donate their family property, what a huge amount of wealth and materials?
All in all, although the Wuwu is large, it is extremely crowded when three thousand armor soldiers are stationed in it.
In fact, these 3,000 ironclad sergeants are simply active outside the dock fort on weekdays, and there is even a small military camp outside the dock, and this place can be connected to the county seat of Yixian County through the gallop road, and it is very easy to hand over to the county...... That is, Gongsun Xun suddenly overwhelmed the territory, which forced them to rush into the dock to defend.
And considering that Hewu has not been in existence for a long time, many living facilities are not perfect, then the problem may be even more serious!
Of course, the 3,000 armor soldiers who were heavily surrounded in the dock fort were a little uncomfortable, and the 'Youzhou Army' outside the dock fort was also a little apprehensive, because after all, the latter spent four and a half days and a half to travel five hundred miles on light horseback...... Not to mention, these soldiers and horses are all surrendered troops.
Therefore, if Dong Zhuo's general Wang Fang led the army to arrive first, and broke through to the Wansui Dock to join Dong Zhuo, the outcome was unknown. Even if you can't break through the encirclement of Gongsun Xun, you can only gain a foothold nearby, which is enough to change the situation from General Wei's encirclement posture to Dong Taishi's posture to a confrontational situation.
And that's not what Gongsun Xun is willing to accept.
However, in Dong Zhuo's anticipation and the torment of the soldiers of the two armies, and under the cold eyes of Gongsun Xun, the first to arrive was not Wang Fang's troops, but a people's army from Zuo Fengyi in the neighboring county, who rushed to the city on the first day of June under the leadership of a well-known county official in Zuo Fengyi County, and went directly to Gongsun Xun's camp to play the role of a wartime auxiliary.
In all fairness, even Gongsun Xun did not expect the arrival of this team, and it can only be said that this young county official called Zhang Ji was too bold - only after meeting him, he realized that this team of seven or eight hundred people was not sent by the county at all, but was disguised by his Zhang Derong's own disciples and guests.
But it has to be said that the effect is excellent.
Zhang both used the banner of Zuo Fengyi County, first made a stand, and the shock to the surrounding government can be imagined, and his arrival also greatly stabilized the hearts of many soldiers from Guanzhong, and even made Dong Zhuojun in the dock fort fall into further panic.
Of course, this adventure also made Gongsun Xun firmly remember Zhang Derong's name - although this kid is very wealthy, he is a typical poor family, and none of his ancestors have achieved 600 stones, which is completely opposite to Jia Kui. However, based on this fact alone, it can be seen that his level is no less than Jia Kui, and he is even more courageous!
So, whether it is a thousand dollars to buy horse bones, or to reward meritorious deeds, Gongsun Xun immediately expressed the newly crowned small and medium-sized officials of Zuo Fengyi County as the county order of Right Fufeng Yi County, with a rank of 600 stones.
As for Zhang Derong, after leaning over to thank him, he directly said that he was willing to temporarily act as the county commander of Yixian County, and after this incident, he still wanted to join the guard general Bai Ma Yi to exercise...... That would be even more satisfying to Gongsun Xun.
However, sooner or later, on the morning of the seventh day of the sixth month, the expected seven or eight thousand people of Wang Fang's department still appeared on the south bank of Weishui. However, to Dong Zhuo's great disappointment, Wang Fang came to Wuzhang Plain, looked at the camp on the mountain, and actually chose to retreat a few miles to set up a village.
In this regard, Gongsun Xun also felt very disappointed, so in the evening, his people climbed the broad camp lieutenant general platform that had been tamped into a full seven zhang high under the Milky Way, and looked at the direction of the Wuzhang Yuan in Weinan with his hands in the wind.
In other words, at this moment, Gongsun Xun's henchmen in the past were not around, not to mention Lou Zibo and Han Yigong, even the people of Xi Zhicai and Baima Yicong were also driven to Pujin or Hedong by him on the same day, including Zhang Liao's brother and Xu Rong's brother, and Sima Lang, the only old man who stayed around, was also asked by Jia Xu to stay and lead people to block Wuguan.
As for Jia Kui, who has not yet been crowned, although he is a well-known person and a usable talent, he is not a confidant.
Of course, Jia Kui himself did not have this consciousness as always, and his person was behind Gongsun Xun, and finally did not hold back and spoke:
"What are you looking at?"
"It's not so much what to see, it's what to wait for." Gongsun Xun felt a little bored, so he turned around and sat directly on the horse that was originally prepared on the high platform, and then continued to look at Wuzhang Yuan and sighed.
"So what are you waiting for?" Jia Kui became more and more curious. "But what words or reports did Sima Zhang have before?"
"Not really." Gongsun Xun said disapprerovitically. "But I think he might be doing something tonight, so I wanted to come and see it."
Jia Kui was puzzled.
"If you have any doubts, you may as well speak up." Gongsun Xun sighed faintly. "I kept you by my side to exercise."
"Yes," Jia Kui was also sincere when he heard this. "Just curious. Although Junhou and Zhang Sima have some origins, they are not familiar, right? It was only a month for him to defect to the prince, and he didn't see much communication between the prince and Zhang Sima for more than a month, so why did the prince trust Zhang Sima so much, and he used it undoubtedly, and even looked forward to it? β
"That's a good question." Gongsun Xun was finally moved, and then asked with a chuckle. "But do you think I, a white horse general, can't even understand the temperament of a horse? How many years will it take? β
Jia Kui immediately smiled: "Does the prince regard people as horses?" β
"I also see some people as guinea dogs!" Gongsun Xun replied calmly. "It's just that I've seen a lot of people, and I've divided them into categories, and I can see them at a glance."
Jia Kui realized.
"In fact, not only Zhang Wenyuan is a horse, Xu Bojin is also a horse, and Yigong was also a horse." Gongsun Xun sighed slightly. "These people were born in the borderland, they are brave and brave, and they are born to be born and raised by heaven and earth, and the horses are useless if no one rides, so they have to find a good master to really gallop thousands of miles...... But then again, unlike the horsepower cattle in the mainland, these border horses are either reckless and uncivilized, and there are many troubles; or wild and difficult to control, and when you encounter someone who can't hold you down, you have to stumble...... This kind of thing is just like that in ordinary times, but in troubled times, it will cause chaos, so that it will be a disaster. β
Jia Kui finally understood: "If that's the case, when these Maxima meet someone who can suppress them, they will be loyal and gallop with all their might?" Only when you meet someone who can subdue yourself can you avoid trouble? β
"So." Gongsun Xun laughed. "I just came to see if this state horse is convinced of me?!"
Jia Kui also laughed: "In this case, the subordinates will wait with the prince." But the prince ......"
"What?"
"Dong Zhongying is also a good horse trainer, right?" Jia Kui suddenly asked.
"yes." Gongsun Xun glanced at the other party, but he didn't deny it. "Dong Zhuo himself is a wild horse, how can he not know how to train horses? It's just that there are not only wild horses in this world, our Dong Taishi is used to taming horses, and finally treats guinea dogs, cows, deer and chickens as horses to tame, but not only did not tame, but made the world vacant, but only those wild horses in the house to do what the cattle and chickens want to do, and finally made a big mess. β
Jia Kui's heart moved, and he stopped talking.
"Are you trying to ask, what is a chicken, what is a dog, what is a cow, and then what are you?" Gongsun Xun didn't even look at the other party, so he knew what the other party wanted to say.
"Subordinate Meng Lang, indeed Meng Lang." Jia Kui said embarrassedly.
"Before I was crowned, I was just a teenager, and I was just writing a text, mentioning a Mazha or something like that, and even Meng Lang could tolerate you." Gongsun Xun said slowly. "Unlike some people, since they are adults, they are responsible, and even think that they can do things for the world, so they have to be responsible for their own actions......"
Jia Kui didn't dare to say more.
"Actually, when you ask the difference between people in the world, I'm just making an analogy, if you really make a serious difference, where can people be classified as clearly as cattle and horses?" Gongsun Xun continued to speak seriously. "The people of the border county have the disadvantages of the people of the border county, they are barbaric and vulgar, they do not know etiquette, and more importantly, they do not take human life seriously; And Wanluo's generation also has the unkindness of Wanluo's generation, protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials, colluding with each other, one is prosperous, and the other is lost, so that they cover each other and raise each other's value; It's the turn of Qingxu area, but it's poor, useless, sour and ridiculous; There are also special counties such as Hedong, Taiyuan, and Guanzhong, which have several kinds of problems, but they also have the benefits of several places...... It's like you and Zhang Ji, one is poor and rich, the other is poor and poor, but some places are exactly the same, they both know what righteousness is better than the people of the border county, and they also know how to be pragmatic better than the people of the inner county...... So when it comes to things in the world, where is it so easy to do? And where can people in the world be so clear? Not to mention, there are still some people who are really Wang Zuozhicai, Liangping's strategy, Wei Huo's ability, and the courage of the overlord, can these people be summarized at will with those things? β
Jia Kui didn't dare to say anything anymore.
In this way, under the Milky Way, above the platform, the two stood one by one, silent for a long time.
However, this silence was soon broken - as the time came to the middle of the night of the third watch, a fire suddenly broke out behind the side of Wuzhangyuan, and the shouts of killing could be heard several miles across the river, which woke up the people in the camp and also shocked the chaos in the Wuwu for a while.
Gongsun Xun didn't wait in vain in the end.
At dawn the next day, the battle report came, Zhang Wenyuan went out of the whole army to rob the camp at night, and defeated the enemy with 2,000 people, and the enemy general Wang Fang died in the chaos...... Of course, Gongsun Xun didn't even look at it, so he was sent to the dock fort.
On June 10, another army arrived, but it was ordered to gallop Yuwen Black Otter and his light cavalry, which incidentally brought the news that Dong Min's entire army had retreated, but it had evolved into a rout under the pursuit and persecution of the Youzhou army.
Although this news was expected, it was still extremely important, so Gongsun Xun still did not forget to convey it to his old friend who was stuck in the dock fort.
On June 13, Cheng Lian and Wei Yuefu brought 3,000 cavalry to help, and brought the head of Dong Zhuo's own brother Dong Min...... Of course, it was also sent to the Long Live Dock by Gongsun Xun.
On 15 June, Ma Tenghan moved 20,000 people from Liangzhou to the north of Meiyang City, dozens of miles away from Yixian, but chose not to move forward after hearing the news of Dong Min's death.
On June 18, Guo Yan was captured by a local pavilion chief in Zuo Fengyi Huangbaicheng and transferred to the pursuing soldier Tai Shi Ci, who heard that he was going to be sent to the front of the Long Live Dock, and asked Dong Zhuo to be executed with no face, and Taishi Ziyi still had some loyalty, so he kept his body and buried it locally.
The next day, Han Dang, Gao Shun, and Xi Zhicai led the main force of the whole army and Bai Ma Yicong to rush to the Wansui Dock and continued to surround Dong Zhuo, and Gongsun Xun finally learned that Lu Bu fled back to Chang'an City in panic, and was now accepted by Wang Yun, the ruler of the city.
In late June, Wang Xiu, Lou Gui, and Tian Feng sent 50,000 or 60,000 people from Hedong and Taiyuan Liangjiazi to cross Pujin, sweeping places along the way, collecting government offices, and stationing 20,000 troops under Chang'an City.
When the news came, Ma Tenghan then submitted the surrender table, willing to hand over the proton, please serve as General Wei's attendant.
On the first day of July, the first night of autumn, Pegasus was in the sky, the Milky Way hung obliquely, and countless meteors pierced the night sky...... And on the second day, Gongsun Xun, who had lost his patience after watching a meteor shower overnight, sent a letter and an old object to the Banzai dock where there had been a suspension deserter.
The old thing is naturally the proof of the intersection of the two people's first acquaintance, that is, the 'Xiang Yu's Broken Blade', for which Dong Zhuo, who is already so obese that he doesn't even want to go down, has long expected it.
As for the letters, when opened, they are only two crosses.
As the so-called:
Sixty years of life,
It's like a dream.
There is life and death,
What does Dong Gong regret?
"Gongsun Wenqi thinks that a letter can force me to die?" Dong Zhuo, who was full of alcohol, laughed, and then looked around. "Today's defeat is defeat, but if you want me to give up your head, you can't help but underestimate me, right? Everyone, if anyone is willing to kill me out, he will die on the road, but as long as he can surprise Gongsun Xiao'er, it will not be in vain to walk in this world? β
There was silence around, but Dong Zhuo looked carefully, but he suddenly came to his senses.
It turned out that at this moment, there was only one man in the hall, and it was the military think tank on his side for many years, Liu Ai, who had received the letter from the city wall and then sent it.
As for the rest of the people who were standing in the hall, they were all his concubines and beauties, and there was not a single soldier.
"How did I, Dong Zhongying, get to where I am today?" Dong Zhuo stroked the knife and sighed, suddenly lost.
βββββI'm the dividing line that sighs with a knifeβββββ
"Zhang is both Derong, Feng Yi is from Gaoling. The family is rich and the door is cold, sixteen years old, and he is a county official. At the end of the Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo was in turmoil, and Taizu used Jia Xu's plan to enter Tongguan for 500 miles to Yiwu and trapped Dong Zhuo. When the people's hearts were undecided, the war in Pujin was not settled, and the hearts of the people in Guanzhong had the inherent intention of turning their backs, especially not daring to do it. Both persuaded the county guard to send the county to help Taizu, in order to make a big plan, the county guard hesitated, since it was a self-donation, thousands of people, and the fake county went to the front. Taizu was overjoyed when he saw it, and said left and right: 'This son is very bold, and he is also a solid Guanxi species!' βThe Book of Old Swallows. Volume Seventy-Four. Biography XXIV
