Chapter 14 is worthy of a battle to achieve meritorious service
Gongsun Xun saluted first and then soldiers, and after some tossing, in terms of face, he had already given enough room for the two veterans. And after this incident, at least on the surface, the three of them became more and more harmonious.
On the evening of the same day, Gongsun Xun held a banquet in the hastily set up camp according to the original plan, which was regarded as striking while the iron was hot, not seeking to bridge the previous differences between the two departments, but just wanting the two departments to accept the arrival of the five schools of Sanhe in a relatively harmonious atmosphere.
However, the current affairs are difficult, and after three rounds of drinking, and the three of them are all generals of the imperial court, it is impossible for the topic to stop at the story all the time.
"Wen Qi, today there are you, General Wei, me, the former general, General Zuo of Huangfu Gong, and the three generals gathered, which is rare." Dong Zhuo had a big belly, sat at the same level as Gongsun Xun, and then suddenly said an interesting thing. "A few years ago, where would you have dared to think about it?"
"Indeed." Gongsun Xun, who was in the middle, smiled casually. "When the country is in turmoil, it is inevitable to have more generals...... I think that at the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, you and I could take charge of the main side as a Zhonglang general, but now there are actually three generals living in one place, and there are only 50,000 soldiers and horses...... But Dong Gong, I have a word. β
"Wen Qi, please speak." Dong Zhuo disagreed.
"I said before that there are two negative people in the imperial court, of course, I mean that there are many unbearable people in Luozhong, but on the other hand, in terms of rank, the two generals are actually the result of the center's best efforts."
Dong Zhuo smiled and said nothing, because he knew that he didn't say this to himself.
"What Wen Qi said is very true." Huangfu Song, who was sitting on the left side of the three cases side by side, was silent for a long time when he heard this, and then couldn't help but sigh. "How could I not have known that the state had done its best? The generals, the general of the chariots, the generals of the hussars, and the generals of the guards are all there...... At this time, it is enough to be able to talk to me General Zuo and former General Zhong Ying. If you really want to talk about grievances, what should Zhu Gongwei do? β
Is Zhu Jun the same thing?
Zhu Jun died of his mother, and the chariot cavalry general Da Yin Jiao was taken for granted, without illness or anger, but Huangfu Song's chariot cavalry general seal was seized in the name of guilt...... The fact that this general Zuo said this can only show that he still has some resentment.
Of course, being able to say enough words, at least on the surface, is willing to listen to persuasion, and is willing to endure each other for the country, which is already remarkable.
In other words, before the two thousand stone masters visited one after another, and the people below the thousand stone could only bow down to follow each other regardless of their position, but now, the three generals were on the same page, chatting non-stop, and the people around them were just talking about each other, and they didn't dare to disturb at all.
Such a situation made the three of them more and more unscrupulous through drinking.
However, just as Gongsun Xun was about to push the boat down the river to make a few words, suddenly, Dong Zhongying interjected and asked: "Speaking of which...... Luozhong now happens to be three generals living in the same city, but far above us, Wen Qi is from Luozhong, do you know how talented the three of them are? β
Huangfu Song immediately froze, to be honest, he was also curious.
Gongsun Xun was stunned for a moment, and also laughed for a while: "The three generals in Luozhong are listed because of the uncle and wife of the Son of Heaven, so what can they talk about?" β
"Look at what Wenqi said, who doesn't know this?" Dong Zhuo also laughed. "I am asking this question because I sincerely want to ask the three of them. Wen Qi, I heard that you directly killed a 2,000-stone lieutenant in Hangu Pass, but there was no wave, I think it was the general who turned around in Luoyang...... Doesn't this mean that from now on, these in-laws will have to call the shots? Therefore, I also want to know, what are these nobles like, and how should they be compared? Of course, if Wen Qi doesn't want to answer, then he won't answer. β
"What's not to answer that?" Gongsun Xun said disapprovingly, he actually figured it out, Dong Min is in Luozhong, so Dong Zhuo's own judgment on the virtue of these people, so he doesn't have to worry that his words will be misleading. "The general has been involved in politics for many years, and he wants to come to Dong Gong to know something. Although his talents are insufficient, he is quite virtuous, so there are many people from the Luozhong clan and the Tianxia corporal, which is enough to suppress the situation......"
"This is talentless and virtuous?" Dong Zhuo smiled more and more happily. "But as Wen Qi said, such a posture is actually far better than some people, and it is indeed enough to suppress the situation."
Huangfu Song was slightly solemn, but he was immediately relieved.
The banquet was noisy, and the three of them were chatting together, but few people heard this, but in terms of the current situation, it didn't hurt to hear it...... Naturally, there is no need to say much about who someone refers to, and the level of He Jin and others is afraid that any member of the Han Empire will have something to discuss when they talk in private recently.
"According to Dong Gong's statement," Gongsun Xun continued to smile and said. "As for the general of the chariot cavalry, it is the amount of a Chinese person and the virtue of a Chinese person, there is no evil, and there is no good. Moreover, he was a young man from a poor family, and remarried with his mother, just seeking a rich and comfortable one. As for the hussar general Dong Chong......"
"What about Dong Chong?" Dong Zhuo became more and more curious.
"They have no talent, no virtue and no power." Gongsun Xun said disdainfully. "His father was killed by Cao Jie's son for using his power without authorization, and he himself was a person who was dismissed for corruption five years ago...... In my opinion, in the future, whether there is chaos or the situation is gradually calming, this person will definitely die. Because he has no talent, he has no virtue when he is in trouble! β
Hearing this, Huangfu Song just shook his head slightly, at this point, it is not that he has extinguished his interest in the political situation in Luoyang, he can't extinguish it if he wants to, the main reason is that his people have been idle for many years, and then suddenly activated, and he does not have much ability to participate in it.
"Actually, I also think that Dong Zhong is probably going to die quickly." Dong Zhuo sighed. But not because of his talents...... Since ancient times, is there one less relative who has been in a high position for a long time without talent and virtue? It's just that it is the eldest son of the emperor who is about to ascend the throne now, not the youngest son of the emperor, and this relative of his is vain, so he will be defeated quickly. β
"There's some truth to that." Gongsun Xun still looked unimpressed.
"But if Jian Shuo can do something," Dong Zhuo continued. On the contrary, Dong Zhong may come to work from time to time. ...... then"
"But can my generation make a difference?" Gongsun Xun suddenly interrupted the other party and asked with a sneer.
Dong Zhuo was stunned when he heard this, then laughed loudly, and shook his head again and again.
Then Huangfu Song suggested that the three of them get up for the general's birthday, so the three of them really got up together and led hundreds of generals in the army to hold cups and face each other.
Such an obvious political gesture is certainly a 'good thing', but after winning the cup, it is difficult for the three of them to continue to talk in private, but in such a situation, once they communicate publicly, they will inevitably start to discuss the war situation.
However, this theory almost made Gongsun Xun's previous efforts useless.
"The old man's meaning is very simple," Dong Zhuo looked around and said in a loud voice. "Chen Cang is in danger, and he should have been rescued quickly, but General Wei was not there that day, so it was not good to send troops without authorization...... You might as well take advantage of its unpreparedness and go straight to Chencang City, I, Dong Zhuo, am willing to be the vanguard. β
As soon as these words came out, Dong Zhuo's subordinates naturally made a noise, and most of them were rough people from border counties, and they echoed out of order for a while, like bandits clamoring and looting.
This one praised Wu Yong, the other said that the witches in their own camp had already divined, and some people asked for war, while pointing at Sang and scolding Huai that others could not fight...... In all fairness, Luoyang has some political discrimination against Liangzhou people who don't study, although Luoyang is 10,000 wrong, but the style of these people is really annoying, that's another matter.
Sure enough, the words of these people immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the soldiers in the Guanzhong of Huangfu Song's subordinates, and they gradually began to refute them, and it didn't take long for the banquet to be in trouble.
At this time, Gongsun Xun discovered another problem:
It must be known that Dong Zhuo's subordinates are mostly veterans who withdrew from Liangzhou when Zhang Wen was conquering the west, on the one hand, the Qiang and Hu mixed styles are barbaric, and on the other hand, they have the same mentality of Luoyang as Dong Zhuo, so they have a lot of arrogant words;
Correspondingly, Huangfu Song's department is mostly the children of the three counties of Guanzhong temporarily convened this time, for them, in the battle of Meiyang that day, a third of the middle and small places in Guanzhong were turned into white ground, and they had some hatred for the people of Liangzhou, which could not hide their emotions.
In other words, Huang Fu Song and Dong Zhuo competed for power, although there were two leaders who were unhappy because of their official positions, but the troops of the two below were the main army and the guest army, which were naturally gaps, and I was afraid that they would be blown up at one point.
And think about it, after Huangfu Song was ousted last time, he only lived in his own fiefdom, that is, Fufeng Huai, which has the feeling that Zhang Huan changed his nationality in the past, then the taste in this is even more intriguing.
Liangzhou border generals, those who read, those who don't read, love and kill each other constantly, it's not old news. Back then, Duan Xi and Zhang Huan, the grievances and hatreds between the two could write a book alone, but now Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo ...... The contradiction is by no means just a problem for the two of them.
"There's no need." Huangfu Song saw that his subordinates were gradually falling behind, so he no longer cared about the high-level atmosphere that had eased slightly because of the arrival of Gongsun Xun, and he also took the initiative to speak out. "I naturally know the martial arts of the former general's department, but what I mean is that there is no need to fight if you can defeat it...... Now the rebels have 50,000 or 60,000 people, but they are surrounded by a cannacle and cannot be attacked, which shows that they have been fighting for many years and have long been exhausted, and there are even people with ghosts in them. In this case, the logistics of our army are safe, it is better to drag it out like this, and send sentry cavalry every day to observe the battle situation in Chencang, if Chencang is in danger, we will naturally send troops, but if it is not dangerous, then there is no need to die, sit and wait for the other generation to retreat, and then kill and wound. β
After these words were said, the dispute was even worse, but gradually, Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song, as well as the two thousand stones and the officers of the five schools of Sanhe at the banquet, naturally focused their eyes on Gongsun Xun, who was sitting in the middle position.
Gongsun Xun couldn't help laughing when he saw this, but he picked up his wine glass, and then sat in place noncommittal: "I have just arrived, the military situation is unknown, and as the commander-in-chief, I can't make a conclusion without permission...... Today, let's only talk about old friendships, not about military affairs. β
Dong Zhuo smiled, and Huangfu Song was silent...... But after all, the two gave Gongsun Xun three points of thin noodles, and each had some constraints, but in the end, they inevitably broke up.
Of course, this goes without saying.
"How?"
After withdrawing the banquet and returning to the tent, Gongsun Xun Wuwu was soaking his feet and reading on the edge of the bed that he had just settled, but suddenly heard the hurried footsteps of the waiter at the outer tent, and then someone directly opened the curtain of the back tent and entered, so he asked without raising his head.
"Looking at today's situation and listening to the words of the two, although these two generals have a lot of resentment in their hearts, Huangfu Song can still focus on the overall situation, but Dong Zhuo's side seems to be resentful, not only has many malicious temptations, but is also afraid and unwilling to give in easily." Xi Zhong replied calmly. "As for the dispute between the two armies, it is a matter of the guest army and the main army...... Unless the military power is unified and the general is restrained, it will not be solved at all. But now that the two of them are in this situation again, it is difficult to let them restrain the following. β
"So, what does Zhicai mean that Huairou is invalid?" Under the candlelight, Gongsun Xun put down the book in his hand and looked up curiously.
"It depends on whether the prince is in a hurry or not." Xi Zhong spread his hands and smiled. "If you follow Dong Gong's own request and take quick attack as the top, then you can only use your hands to force pressure; And if, according to what the Emperor Fu said, he might as well wait for Chen Cang's enemies to retreat, then he can drag it out and slowly show his sincerity, and even ignore the actions of his juniors......
"What do you think?" Gongsun Xun suddenly looked at Lou Gui, who had been silent since he came in. "Which one is the best of the two strategies of the Emperor Fu and Dong Gong?"
"Don't hide it from the prince, I've been thinking about it for a long time." Lou Zibo put down his hand pinching his beard and was honest. "Prince, since I heard Gaixun talk about the current unbearable situation of the rebels in the customs, I have carefully considered the battle situation...... But I feel that today's strategies of Dong Gong and Huangfu Gong are actually the best choices, the former saves time, the latter saves effort, that's all. β
"That's a good point." Gongsun Xun also laughed. The two of them said so brilliantly, but they actually had selfish intentions...... Dong Zhuo's troops are mostly veterans of Liangzhou, and the meritorious service of his troops in the battle at this time must be the heaviest, but the children of Guanzhong who were hastily summoned by Huangfu Gong will inevitably fall behind. But on the other hand, if the children of Guanzhong can calm down and practice for a month or two before going to war, the combat power may not be worse than that of the old soldiers of the Dong Gong Department. β
"Not bad." Lou Gui immediately bowed his head.
"At the same time, Dong Gong lost his son in old age, so he was obsessed with his meritorious deeds, so he hurriedly asked for war, and repeatedly asked me about the situation in Luozhong, I am afraid that he still wants to take advantage of the great victory and meritorious service, turn to Luo, and make some plans. As for the Huangfu Gong, perhaps he was unwilling to express himself before the situation was clear, so he had the heart of Chen Bing to protect himself outside, or he had just recovered, and he wanted to do something but had no context to find in Luozhong, so he deliberately delayed ......"
"That's all I can guess." Xi Zhong couldn't help but laugh. "Borrowing a sentence from the old Python Mountain, the fat cat and the thin cat, the one that has not even caught a mouse, it can be seen that it is not a good cat!"
"Moreover, as Dong Gong said, Chen Cang is in danger, and Huang Fu Gong said that he will avoid casualties, in fact, they are all excuses." Gongsun Xun paused slightly, but continued to speak. It's just that Dong Gong's excuse is rough and can be easily refuted, while Huangfu Gong's excuse, although it sounds more reasonable, is also ridiculous...... An army of 50,000 people, people eat horses and chew, all of them are supplied by Guanzhong, and now in this year, food is human life, although a few more months can kill fewer soldiers, but I don't know how much more people in Guanzhong will die. β
Lou Gui and Xi Zhong were both silent, but they listened to their own father-in-law continue to sigh.
"In fact, I also understand that the situation in the world has reached this point, no matter what you do, you will inevitably be killed and injured." Gongsun Xun said frankly. "And for the sake of the superior, you shouldn't show hesitation, but there is no need to hide anything in front of the two of you...... In today's situation, I actually have the intention to forge ahead, but I am afraid that the hasty battle will ruin the overall situation, and when the time comes, Guanzhong will fall, and everything will be in vain; But if you want to drag it on, you are not only afraid that Guanzhong will be tired and repeat the post-war situation in the past, but also afraid that the situation behind you will change. β
"You have to find out if the people in the kingdom and Han Sui in front of you are a strategy to lure the enemy, right?" Lou Gui suddenly said with a smile. "What if the other generation is elite and sharp, and they are united, but they deliberately do not attack the city, but they are waiting for us at the front?"
"Not bad." Gongsun Xun also smiled. "What Uncle Zi said is very right, you have to stand on a firm foothold and look for fighters, right? Let's drag it out and find out the enemy's situation. β
Lou and Xi saw that Gongsun Xun chose to do it slowly after all, so they didn't say anything more, and they each gave up.
came out of the account, the sky was full of stars, but Xi Zhong couldn't help but ask one thing: "Uncle Zi finally pushed the boat down the river and persuaded the lord to postpone, but there are other considerations?" β
"Not bad." Lou Gui said. "Now that Yuan Shao is gone, the situation in Luozhong should be unhindered, and since the current situation can be done slowly, and it is okay to attack quickly, then in my opinion, it is better to do it slowly...... After all, the five hundred white horses of the prince and the prince are all here, and if they fight in a hurry, they must use the righteousness as the blade, and if they can't say it, they will be damaged. And ......"
"Moreover, after all, the five schools of Sanhe are forbidden troops, if they can be nurtured here for a few months, and win people with the kindness of the prince, they will definitely have some affection, and when things are chaotic in the future, they will be in Luoyang...... Maybe it will work wonders? Xi Zhong asked rhetorically.
"Exactly." Lou Gui simply admitted. "As far as the prince is concerned, it may be possible to strike quickly and slowly, but for the prince himself, it is best to do it slowly...... The prince hesitated, my generation should do this kind of thing. β
When Xi Zhong heard this, he suddenly stopped and was silent for a moment, which caused Lou Gui to turn back curiously:
"What does that mean?"
"No other." Xi Zhong took another step, and then replied frankly. "I just remember that when they talk about your old things when you play cards and gamble on weekdays, you have been so experienced over the years, and you are no longer the son of the past, why do you often jump out of nonsense when you don't understand these people's hearts; Now that I have gradually developed this ability, I only talk about military affairs, and I don't talk about anything else? Is it because of our Lu Ziheng Lu Changshi? It was you who advised me to associate with him more that day. β
"Perhaps!" Lou Gui smiled at a rare loss. "But Zhicai...... I'm curious about you, why are you still so out of the mood when you are obviously good at people's hearts? It's as if I didn't understand anything when I was younger. β
"It's like this, and there's the connivance of the prince, or is it unfrustrated?" Xi Zhong said disapprovingly.
Lou Gui shook his head for a while.
The night was vast, and in the back tent of the barracks that had just been set up, Gongsun Xun had already washed his feet and went to bed, but he still opened his eyes and looked sideways at the candle fire in front of him.
It was a sleepless night.
It is said that when Gongsun Xun arrived at the camp in Huangshui, it was the beginning of December, and there was no 'solar calendar' or 'lunar calendar' in this year, and December was the last month of winter.
During this month, Gongsun Xun, as Lou Gui hinted, although he did not express his position openly, he actually adopted the strategy of 'doing it slowly', just probing the enemy's situation every day, plus nurturing and training the five schools of the ten thousand three rivers under his command. For Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song, there was neither the inevitable and brutal means of seizing military power, nor did they deliberately persuade peace.
However, thanks to Gongsun Xun's rank and the fact that he was separated from the two of them in the camp, the two groups of people who were originally like fire and water gradually settled down...... But gradually, as Dong Zhuo saw Gongsun Xun's procrastination strategy, he became more and more impatient, and every time there was a military discussion, he would inevitably clamor to march into the army, not to mention, his soldiers and horses actually began to quarrel with Gongsun Xun's three rivers and five schools.
On the one hand, Dong Zhuo has 20,000 people and has been familiar with geography here for a long time, so he naturally has an advantage, while Gongsun Xun only has more than 10,000 Luoyang forbidden troops, which inevitably loses the upper hand.
But on the other hand, Gongsun Xun had already done political precautions in Chang'an, not only pressing five local 2,000 stones in the barracks as mascots, but also communicating with Gai Xun for a long time, so the logistics supply was calmly controlled by Gongsun Xun's department, and then countered. Not only that, the rank of the officers in the five schools of Sanhe is too high, as long as one is more than two thousand stones, Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses over there will inevitably retreat indignantly.
And finally, probably before the Chinese New Year, the two sides finally had a big battle because of the loss of the war horse...... Gongsun Xun, who had been ignoring it, opened up Lu Bu, and Lu Fengxian shot Li Dao's war horse with an arrow, which scared the latter into running away, and he didn't dare to cause trouble again, and the two sides spent the New Year safely.
It was at this time that Gongsun Xun finally determined that dozens of miles away, the rebels in Chencang had indeed fallen into a situation where they were suspicious and indecisive, rather than deliberately showing weakness...... This is because Chen Cangcheng still hangs the banner of Chinese characters at the head of the city, and there has never been half a point of damage.
After all, up to this point, this group of people has been besieging Chen Cang for more than 40 days, and even if it is to show weakness and lure the enemy, these more than 40 days will stop under the city, and the fake will become true, and the morale should be exhausted.
In fact, although the people below gradually stopped, Dong Zhongying became more and more presumptuous in front of Gongsun Xun and Huangfu Song, and the military meeting every three days must inevitably advocate the whole army to attack! And the language is becoming more and more vulgar, which undoubtedly shows the arbitrariness and rudeness of the Liangzhou warriors.
In this kind of stumbling and stumbling, like an old husband and wife living a life, on the third day of the first month of the sixth year of Zhongping, Jingzhao Yin Gaixun suddenly left his post without permission, came to the army from Chang'an in person, and had a secret meeting with Gongsun Xun, and came with several white horse knights.
No one knows what is being talked about, because Gongsun Xun has not mentioned it to the public, and Gai Xun is also silent, and as for the information brought by several white horse knights, no one knows.
Everyone including Jia Wenhe only knew that after discussing with his two real henchmen for an afternoon, Gongsun Xun invited the former general Dong Zhuo to come to the Chinese army for a while, thinking that Gai Xun would wash the dust.
Gaixun Liangzhou celebrities are second only to Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo after Liangzhou generals, and because they are favored by the Son of Heaven on the sickbed, their political status is high, Dong Zhongying wants to lead the lieutenant generals and colonels to greet him...... Just like welcoming Gongsun Xun before.
Not to mention, this sit-down war has been going on for a month, and the rebels in front can't advance or retreat under Chencang City, which can be called the safety of the front line, and Dong Zhongying himself has to come every three days, so there is no doubt about it.
"Dong Gong, General Wei, the Northern Army, and Gai Cheng are waiting for you in the camp." Jia Xu, who came out of the camp, bowed slightly. "Please feel free."
"It doesn't matter." Facing Jia Wenhe, who is also from Liangzhou, Dong Zhuo is still very polite. "Wenhe is hard, although it is spring, the weather is still cold, why bother to greet him in person?"
Behind him, several people were greeted by the leader, and Tian Chou, the leader of them, immediately retreated and got out of the way.
Dong Zhuo didn't care, and directly led the lieutenant general Zuo into the entourage, and shook hands with Gai Xun on the second gate. However, when the former general came to the Chinese army tent that he was actually very familiar with, he was suddenly stunned, and then in a trance, he remembered the strange greeting words that Jia Xu said just now.
You must know that at this time, there was only Gongsun Xun waiting for him in the big tent of the Chinese army, and he did not see Huangfu Song and his deployment! Even, there was only one juxtaposed case on Gongsun Xun's side...... It's clear that there is fraud!
At the very least, tonight's banquet is definitely not here to welcome Gai Xun!
"What does Wen Qi mean by this?" Dong Zhuo was almost upside down, but in an instant, the arrogance of his people who had been a general for many years came up, and then he personally raised his knife and asked him proudly.
And Dong Zhuo's side of the Angzang armored warrior was holding a knife and staring at Gai Xun, but Gai Xun took care of him, so he spared Dong Zhuo and sat down on the side. Even Jia Xu was silent, and sat straight on an empty seat next to the tent door.
"No other." Sitting in the first place, Gongsun Xun, who was the Hou Dong Zhuo, laughed for a while. "Dong Gong was too worried...... I only called Dong Gong's side today, but I wanted to tell Dong Gong that I had made up my mind, and in three days, I would move to Huangshui and Linchencang to find an opportunity to fight a decisive battle! β
Dong Zhuo turned his anger into joy when he heard this, then let go of the hand holding the knife, and sat down forward with his belt: "Wen Qi finally figured it out!" The thief army is not to be worried, it is indeed long overdue to fight a battle. β
Don't say that Dong Zhuo is Dong Zhuo's subordinates, and they are all overjoyed, and then they each sit down.
"Wen Qi wants to set a plan with me to send troops, and then have a showdown with Huangfu Gong together?" Thanks to the popularity of animal cards, Dong Zhuo was able to say such words as a showdown.
Gongsun Xun was noncommittal, just got up and poured a glass of wine for Dong Zhuo, and then offered it with both hands: "I was about to borrow Dong Gong's combat power...... I am the general of Zhiwei, the marquis of 6,000 counties, and I am willing to promise here that the credit will be given to Dong Gong and all of you here, and I will not take a penny. β
Dong Zhuo became more and more overjoyed when he heard this, and he also got up and drank the wine glass, and then promised: "Wen Qi rest assured, the thief army is uncertain, and the advance and retreat are lost, although you live behind me in this battle, watch me succeed!" β
"That being said." Gongsun Xun sat back, but shook his head slowly. "I'm the boss, and I always have to make decisions with the camera......"
"Wen Qi rest assured, I, Dong Zhuofei, am a person who made a mistake, and as soon as the war starts, I will definitely do my best." Dong Zhuo sat behind the desk, holding his belt and looking around.
"I don't doubt Dong Gong's combat strength and determination, but I said that the rebels have many cavalry, and they should be used together by three cavalry...... What does the former general think? Gongsun Xun is still not slow, not in a hurry, not happy or angry.
"Cavalry is the right way." Dong Zhuo's heart moved, and then he couldn't help frowning. "But is the Emperor willing to hand over the cavalry to me?"
"It's not just cavalry." Gongsun Xun did not answer, but continued to speak on his own. "Our army is divided into three divisions, and there are many barriers between them, and our troops are few, and the former general and the left general's headquarters should also be divided into another division and listed on both sides of the Chinese army for support."
Dong Zhuo was already suspicious again, but the other party didn't say it thoroughly, how could he refute it, so he immediately kept silent.
But the former general didn't have to wait too long at all, because Gongsun Xunxuan even had a poor dagger: "Therefore, Dong Gong, I thought that your cavalry might as well be handed over to Li Dao and Li Sima, and then unified under the command of the Chinese army; Then divide 5,000 troops and let Brother Yuangu take command to bridge the two armies...... What do you think? β
"Wen Qi is too much!" Dong Zhuo suppressed his anger. "Cavalry is where the combat power of an army lies, our department has 20,000, but only 5,000 cavalry, and if you give it to you, you will lose more than half of your combat strength; Gai Yuan Guxi Liang is famous, known as prestige, and if you give him 5,000 soldiers, it is clear that it will also fall into your hands...... So how many soldiers and horses do I, a former general, still have?! β
"Ten thousand!" Gongsun Xun was not in a hurry, and took the initiative to calculate the result for the other party. "10,000 foot soldiers."
"10,000 foot soldiers!" Dong Zhongying finally became angry and got up and asked rhetorically. "But you have five thousand more horsemen and five thousand foot soldiers...... Wouldn't such a behavior mean to annex our department?! These soldiers and horses have been following me since two years ago, why do you say you can take them?! β
"The rebels in Liangzhou have their own ghosts, if our army can't join forces, how can they win magnificently?" Gongsun Xun was still sitting in the same place, unhappy or angry, ignoring Dong Zhuozhi's anger beside him. "Or is our army a rabble, just like the other side?"
"That's it, why can't you give me the soldiers and horses?!" Dong Zhuo asked angrily. "Isn't it also a joint army?!"
"Because I'm General Wei!" Gongsun Xun finally made a silent voice. "As the commander of the festival, you are the former general, and as my deputy commander, I order you to hand over the troops and horses today as the commander of the festival, and listen to my dispatch...... If you obey my orders, you are right, but if you refuse to obey them, you are disobeying! β
Dong Zhuo sneered for a while, he forcibly questioned the other party about the old things that he used to be a Sima in the state, and he didn't completely tear his face and ask what happened if he disobeyed the order...... Although he didn't say a word, he glared at a few subordinates below, and then kicked open a few cases full of wine and meat in front of him.
Wine and food were spilled all over the floor, and it was quite a mess.
You must know that the two generals had a verbal confrontation above, and their respective subordinates below had already held their swords at their waists, and at this time, seeing Dong Zhuo kicking a few cases, and having eyes, the following henchmen and officers immediately made an uproar. The officers of the Northern Army on the opposite side were also furious and confronted each other.
And as one of them actually jumped directly into the hall, the scene was even more chaotic.
"Who's that man!" Gongsun Xun was not used to these people, he suddenly pointed at that person.
Dong Zhuo's old troops also followed Dong Zhuo to fight in the south and the north, and many of them also had the experience of fighting side by side with Gongsun Xun.
"Sima Fan Chou in my department." Dong Zhuo on the side saw that the situation was not good, and immediately replied proudly, as if he wanted to support his subordinates. "What a meritorious warrior!"
"Jia Xu!" Gongsun Xun didn't pay attention to the fat man beside him at all, and just asked himself. "What is the crime of roaring the military tent and reloading the festival commander?"
Jia Wenhe was silent for a moment, but he immediately stepped out of the queue and bowed down to answer: "Capital crime!" β
"This is the warrior of our army!" Dong Zhuo became more and more furious when he heard this. "Gongsun Xun, my warriors don't need you to deal with it!"
"I know this person." Gongsun Xun still sat upright for a few cases, and replied with a sneer. "Isn't this warrior the one who owes Lu Fengxian a life?"
When Lu Bu heard this, he stepped forward and arched his hands to each other: "It is the person who was rescued under Guangzong City that day, and the time is too long, and the subordinates have forgotten it." β
"Come on." Gongsun Xun beckoned to Lu Bu.
Lu Bu didn't know why, but he immediately got up and walked forward to Gongsun Xun in the complicated eyes of everyone.
And Gongsun Xun pulled out a broken blade from his waist at night, which made Dong Zhuo's expression complicated: "Dong Gong is my elder, and he had a lot of favors with him in Bingzhou in the past, he said that this person is his subordinate, and I am not allowed to dispose of it without permission...... It's okay for others, but I have to listen to Dong Gong's words! Bong-first. β
"In!" In the silence where only the sound of breathing could be heard, Lu Bu's voice was particularly majestic.
"This knife is Dong Gong's saber, Fan Chou owes you a life, you kill him with this knife, so that I can live up to both military law and Dong Gong!" Gongsun Xun said, and pointed directly at the pale face. "Swift execution!"
Lu Bu took the knife and turned around, and came straight to Fan Chou, Fan Chou was in a hurry, wanting to draw his knife to defend himself, but he only felt that his hands and feet were cold, and he couldn't do anything at all. Although Li Dao, Guo Yan and the others next to him stood up when they saw this, they also felt cold and dry after being glanced at by Lu Bu, and they didn't dare to go to the hole.
When Lu Bu stepped forward, he snatched Fan Chou's weapon, picked up this person, and walked out like a child, mixed with Fan Chou's crying, no one dared to move, and could only watch his person out of the account.
Fan Chou's cries and pleadings didn't last long, and they suddenly cut off, and then Lu Bu turned around and returned to the tent with the bloody broken blade, bowing down.
During this period, an Angzang guard beside Dong Zhuo almost couldn't help but draw his sword, but he was held down by his own general who was staring at Lu Bu non-stop.
After Lu Bu killed people, he calmly sat down, Gongsun Xun put the bloody blade on the case and did not move, but he poured another glass of wine, and got up to serve it to Dong Zhuo again: "Dong Gong...... Today's affairs, I must do it, and I must do it! But there's no such thing as a target! If Dong Gong believes in me as he did ten years ago, please drink this wine, you and I will defeat the rebels together! β
Dong Zhuo, who had already calmed down, once again stopped the movement of the guard behind him, and then went straight to the wine, but asked one thing back: "Wen Qi, I'm not afraid of you, but today you are in good name, and I, Dong Zhuo, am not a rebellious person!" But I still have one word to ask you, do you only annex my ministry? What did the Emperor Fu say? β
"Equal treatment." Gongsun Xun replied calmly. "It's already being done."
"That's how I can calm my mind a little!" Dong Zhuo said this, and drank it all with pride. "Five thousand cavalry let Li Dao take you under your command, plus five thousand foot soldiers and Gai Yuangu...... It's going to be handed over tonight! β
After saying that, he spared Jia Xu, who was in a mess on the ground and bowed in front of the tent, and then went out of the tent proudly.
At the same moment, in the Northern Army, Liu Biao, one of the eight horses of the party, and Bao Xin, the commander of the cavalry, did not bring a single guard, and then rode alone to the front of Huangfu Song's camp.
Facing Huangfu Song's nephew Huangfu Li, who came in a hurry to greet him, he didn't hurry down and got off the horse, and then arched his hands to each other, and his words were kind, which made people feel like a spring breeze: "Liu Biao in the Northern Army, I was ordered by General Wei to meet General Zuo!" β
