In front of White Horse City, the fathers and elders in the city prepared wine to welcome each other, but Gongsun Xun just asked Lu Fan to accept the wine for him and chatted to comfort him, but he took the generals of the Han army into the city.

When passing by the city gate, no matter who it is, whether it is a general in the army, or a strong person who goes out to welcome and returns to the city, he can't help but look up at the handsome head of the yellow scarf hanging on the city gate, and shake with emotion.

In all fairness, the elite of the official army of 800 suddenly arrived at night, and then climbed the wall with a rope and attacked Kaesong, and the enemy only had one or two thousand scattered troops stationed in Xincheng, and the victory was a matter of course. It's just that the suddenness of this battle is too strong, whether it is the Han army or the Yellow Turban Army, or the local heroes and strong people in White Horse City, they didn't expect that the first battle after the official army went down the river would actually be a white horse!

I have to say that Gongsun Xun made a slight trick, and then won the first victory in a very performative manner, which completely convinced the officers of the Northern Army who were born as noble children in the army, and also greatly shocked the local heroes.

"The general is really a god!" It was Cao Cao who said this, but the object of what he said was not Gongsun Xun, but Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang, who stood in the city gate early.

To tell the truth, Cao Mengde's advantages are very prominent.

For example, he is very smart and good at learning, and then he has received a good education for the children of elite nobles, administration, literature, and martial arts are not bad, and his Chinese level is simply talented, and marching and fighting is only currently inexperienced, not much practice, and later also talented;

Then he still has a great sense of humor, does not care about small things, is also very simple, and more importantly, dares to interact with people regardless of his background and image, which can be called 'winning people';

In the end, thanks to his eunuch grandfather, this person still has sufficient political capital and family capital, and in any case, the core political circle of the Han Dynasty has a lot of tickets for him.

This kind of person, once the troubled times are opened, is simply a natural hero template...... In other words, he himself did affect the concept of later generations' perception of heroes in troubled times, and Xu Zijiang's sentence 'a traitor in peace, a hero in troubled times' is by no means false.

However, another undeniable thing is that Cao Cao himself should have some inferiority.

This mainly comes from two points, one is the background, after all, the career path of the eunuchs of the Cao family naturally makes the scholars look down on them, and the other is the personal image...... Cao Cao has a short figure and appearance!

Cao Agui Cao Apu, Apo does not mean that Cao Cao was cunning when he was a child, in fact, the word concealment itself means closing his eyes, which is derived from the characteristic of Cao Cao's squinting eyes since he was a child, and these things are themselves an original sin in the officialdom and aristocratic circles of this era.

Therefore, if you really want to study it carefully, there is a reason why Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have a good relationship, have a good relationship with Gongsun Xun, and even fall in love with Guan Yu at first sight at this moment.

The former is the family background, the middle is the appearance, and the latter is the figure...... Everything is grace and style.

Of course, Cao Cao would never know that in another time and space, he himself would actually become synonymous with style and bearing! It can be seen that heroes are not heroes, and there is still nothing directly related to these three things.

Back in front of him, on the way from the city gate to the county temple, Cao Mengde has been praising Guan Yu, and the entourage of generals also stepped forward to congratulate Guan Han, and when everyone dispersed in the end, Han Dang certainly returned to the ranks of Lu Fan, Lou Gui and others, but Guan Yu has been praised by Cao Cao and Liu Bei, which made Gongsun Xun have a weird feeling.

However, as each other's robes in the army, a deputy general in the army and a marquis of Qu Jun, praising another fake Sima who has just made meritorious contributions, what is there to question?

Didn't he also take the opportunity to put on a pleasant appearance and take advantage of the situation to appease those generals of the Northern Army?

In short, in the battle of the White Horse, the morale of the Han army was greatly boosted, and more importantly, Gongsun Xun only managed to suppress this arrogant soldier with a complicated source at this time, which can be regarded as a rope.

In this case, it is time to take advantage of this momentum to make another move!

Sure enough, as soon as they sat down in the hall of the White Horse County Temple, everyone in the army asked for battle:

"Guan and Han are so strong, it's gratifying, but their subordinates have returned to the command of the prince and marquis, and they haven't made an inch, so they are really ashamed......"

"General, my family has a lot of dealings with the Wang clan of Yan County, please let me lead the troops as the vanguard to take Yan County, which will definitely attract the help of the Wang clan to become an internal response!"

"Junhou, coming to Hanoi from Youzhou, I may not have fought for a long time, so please also assign me three people and eight hundred men, and we will definitely take Wei Township!"

"General, the white horse suddenly changed hands, Puyang will inevitably shake, it is better for the whole army to send Puyang quickly, maybe you can capture the thief in one battle!"

Gongsun Xun sat in the middle of the hall and let these people talk about it, but he didn't say anything for a while.

However, after listening to it for a long time, Lou Zibo, who was standing on the side, suddenly lost his laughter, causing everyone to look sideways: "Everyone, White Horse City has fallen into my hands, and the surrounding Yellow Turban Thief strongholds are nothing more than Yan County in the west, Puyang in the east, and Wei Township in the south, but you have told them again. And if you follow your distribution, first lead one or two thousand soldiers and horses to attack Yan County, and then divide eight hundred cavalry to attack Wei Township, and then ask the prince to use the remaining 'army' to fight Puyang...... Puyang is the capital of Dongjun, I heard that the city there is high and the grain is sufficient, and Pushui is also a moat, and Bu has gathered 20,000 elite soldiers there. ”

When everyone reacted, they were also embarrassed and laughed.

Of course, laughing and laughing, it is still necessary to continue the military discussion and discuss the direction of the troops...... Since the white horse was suddenly taken, how could it not be possible to continue to send troops while the enemy army could not react?

What are you doing in Donggun?!

"Puyang can't take the initiative to fight." Cao Cao also got a chair to sit on Gongsun Xun's left hand side, but he took the opportunity to speak. "I once served as an order in Dunqiu, so when I took office and when I left office, I went to Puyang, the county to govern Puyang, as Zibo said, where the city wall is tall and strong, and the water is drawn into a moat. And now Bu has hidden grain and grass deep there, gathering 20,000 troops...... Our army is all cavalry, and if we can't mobilize it, I'm afraid we will have to wait for the backup to arrive. ”

Everyone calmed down, and they all bowed their heads.

"That's the case," Gongsun Xun, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, but he directly pointed out the person. "Cui Sima!"

"The subordinates are here!" The Sima of the Northern Army, surnamed Cui, who was seeking to fight before, was immediately overjoyed, and then stepped forward to salute.

"You said that your family and the Wang family of Yan County are world friends, and you can dispatch people in Yan County to obtain internal responses?"

"Yes!" Cui Sima hurriedly explained. "Don't hide it from the king, the second king who became famous in the Wang family of Yan County, the younger one was the one who became the official of the Eastern County and then was elected to the court as the Lang, it was the father who was the deputy of the Lang Department. Therefore, although the two kings are not at home, my words will definitely make the Wang family help them, and maybe they can also use the power of the Wang family in Yan County to persuade many thieves in the city to fight back......"

"White Horse City is in our hands." Gongsun Xun said with a smile. "Wei Township and Yan County are isolated from most of the Yellow Turban Thieves, but you can try to get it...... That's good, there are 700 people in your headquarters, plus 500 people from your colleague Liu Sima in the Northern Army, and 200 people each from Wei Yue, Zhang Fei, and Chu Yan...... A total of 1,800 elite war horses, you are the main general, and the remaining four are your deputies, which are dispatched by you. ”

"I will definitely live up to the general's entrustment!" Cui Sima was overjoyed. "Please wait for the good news!"

The other four people who were named were also overjoyed and stepped forward to thank them.

"As for Wei Xiang......" Gongsun Xun thought thoughtfully.

"Although Wei Township has a city, it is only a township!" Cao Cao suddenly got up when he heard this. "It's better to let Guan Sima go with me, it's still the same 800 soldiers last night, and I will definitely be able to go down!"

"Brother Mengde." Gongsun Xun couldn't help laughing. "I said bluntly, although I am from Youzhou, and I have brought 3,000 Benzhou soldiers here, but since I am the main general of the first army, I want a bowl of water...... Youzhou soldiers and horses have already made meritorious contributions in Mengjin before, and Yun Chang and Yigong led the 800 people here last night to establish miraculous achievements, and at this time it should be based on the rest of the tribes, and it is also to let the Hanoi knights who have just enlisted in the army and the officers of the Northern Army see the meaning of blood. ”

As soon as these words came out, the only two remaining Sima from the Northern Army couldn't help but dance with their eyebrows, each glanced at each other, and then came to the hall and bowed.

"It's just a township, and you don't need Brother Meng De to personally supervise the army with two thousand stones." Gongsun Xun pondered for a moment, but suddenly looked at a person standing in the hall. "General Xiahou ...... Where is Xiahou Yuan? ! ”

Xiahou suddenly realized, and after glancing at Cao Cao, who was immediately bowed, he couldn't help but show joy on his face, so he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Please command!" ”

"Yuan Rang is the main one, and the two Sima commanders go to Wei Township." Gongsun Xun said. "I'll let my brother Xuande lead his song as your successor...... How is it? ”

Xiahoudun glanced at the little white face that flashed forward and smiled at himself, but he had nothing to say.

After all, Gongsun Xun himself admitted frankly that this collocation is to share the credit according to the faction...... And just a Wei township, after all, is just a township, the old city is just a soil fence, he Xiahoudun didn't come when he fled, even so, why not assign a fierce general to Cui Sima and give himself a little white face? !

Don't delay your own contributions!

As soon as he thought of this, Xiahoudun actually bowed his hand slightly to Liu Xuande.

"That's it!" Gongsun Xun said this, but suddenly became serious. "No one is allowed to cut off the messengers of the thief army. The two people who go to Weixiang and Yan County have to make a big fanfare...... Zi Jing (Zhao), Zi Zhang (Yang Kai), don't be idle, you two will go to Puyang early tomorrow morning to investigate carefully. If Bu doesn't know what to do, he leaves Puyang Jiancheng and sends troops to recover Baima, or goes to help Yan County and Wei Township, everyone will not fall in love with the war, and return to the army immediately, let's borrow the sharpness of the cavalry, maybe we can fight a decisive battle under Baima City, and let the Yellow Turban of Dongjun be destroyed in one fell swoop! ”

Including Cao Cao, everyone suddenly got up again at this time...... In this way, the immediate arrangement also has the meaning of besieging the city to send reinforcements, or deliberately emptying the White Horse City to lure the snake out of the hole.

is so proper, and there is a plan, but it is more and more speechless.

In this way, the military discussion stopped, and everyone went to work, but Gongsun Xun led Lu Fan, Lou Gui, Dong Zhao, Gongsun Yue and others to take over the prisoners, dispose of the thieves and officials, and find out the local officials and big households who had not been thieves, and select people from them in order to re-establish order.

They then went to check and receive the inventory of the Yellow Turbans in Whitehorse...... After seeing that there was a lot of money and cloth among them, he took out some of them and rewarded them to the 800 people who had made meritorious contributions yesterday and to Guan and Han. He also sent a lot of people to the trial and match and Wang Xiu who were stationed on the side of the Yellow River, so that they could reward and comfort the people and crew who worked hard in the river, as well as the trial and match department who camped in the wild.

By the time this was done, the whole day had passed.

At this time, those powerful families in the county came to ask for a banquet again, saying that they were going to set up a banquet to entertain them, and since they had been properly arranged, Gongsun Xun naturally had no choice but to call Cao Cao, and took Gongsun Yue, Lu Fan, Dong Zhao, Lou Gui, Guan Yu, Han Dang and other people in the city to go to the banquet together, and also had the intention of exploring the specific situation of Dongjun.

"Dong'e County didn't fall into the hands of thieves?" Gongsun Xun was surprised. "Almost the entire territory of Dongjun has fallen, how can Dong'e County be spared?"

"Don't hide it from the general!" When asked, the local wealthy family surnamed Xue hurriedly avoided the table and saluted, and explained respectfully. "He actually fell into the hands of thieves when the Yellow Turban thieves first appeared, and the county orders escaped over the wall at that time, but only one day later, they were taken back by a county official and our Dongjun Xue clan's clan in Dong'e! And then stick to it until now! ”

As soon as these words came out, Gongsun Xun and the others were all stunned, and Guan Yu, who had never had a good face for these powerful families, also became curious.

"Is there such a heroic person?" Cao Cao couldn't help but ask. "What is the name of this person, and I don't know if it is my old friend when I served in Dunqiu in the past!"

"Returning to the Captain." The Hao family surnamed Xue immediately said. "This person's surname is Cheng Mingli, the word Zhongde, and he is a native of Dong'a!"

Gongsun Xun couldn't help but jump his eyelids.

"Was it him?" Cao Cao was puzzled for a while, but Dong Zhao, the short and fat man over there, woke up. "I've heard of this man's reputation."

Dong Zhaonai is a native of Jiyin, and Jiyin is next to the south of Dongjun, and there are also cities that have fallen at this time...... In fact, the Wei Township where Xiahoudun and Liu Bei set out to attack in the afternoon was at the junction of Chenliu, Dongjun, and Jiyin counties. The talents in the neighboring counties, Dong Gongren knows some of them...... What's more, in another time and space, these two people are simply simultaneous interpretations in the history books?

"And what kind of person is this person?" Gongsun Xun asked knowingly.

"Wait for you." Dong Zhao shook his head and said. "He was more than eight feet long, with a beautiful beard, and thin...... It complements me perfectly. ”

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they looked at Dong Zhao's short and fat figure.

"He has been famous in the neighborhood for a long time, and he is recognized as a man of courage and strategy." Dong Gongren threw away the joke and continued. "However, this man has a very evil personality and is not good at associating with people, and if I remember correctly, he should be forty-four years old this year, and yet he is still a county magistrate...... But as soon as the war came, he showed his ability. ”

Everyone sighed, but Gongsun Xun was particularly shocked...... After all, at the age of forty-four, this is all standard decay, it's time to hold a grandson, who would have thought that such an old man would continue to run rampant in troubled times for decades in the future?

"Dare to ask, how did Cheng Zhongde recapture the city in one day?" Over there, Dong Zhao couldn't help but ask this big family surnamed Xue.

The hall is full of people with seals and ribbons, and this wealthy family surnamed Xue is too late, of course he doesn't dare to hide it. In addition, his relatives were also involved, and they did know some inside information, and for a while, it was a vivid depiction.

It turned out that the leader of the rebellion under the banner of the Yellow Turban in Dong'e County was none other than Cheng Wangdu of Dong'e County, and the county commander Wen Shengsheng (compound surname Wenren, single name Sheng) was a soft egg, as soon as he heard that there were people in the city who were in trouble, he could run away directly over the wall. So overnight, Dong'a was occupied by the Yellow Turban Army.

So far, in fact, it is basically a routine with most of the counties lost when the Yellow Turban Army was in trouble.

However, the so-called heroes in troubled times, everyone thinks that there are more capable people on weekdays, but it is really the time to test the level when there is chaos...... At that time, Cheng Li was on a business trip in the countryside, and when he heard the news, he hurried back, and met many fugitive officials and many large local families on Quqiu Mountain on the way.

Cheng Li first sent people to investigate the situation in the city, and found that Wang Du was also in a hurry, and the city was empty, and he felt that there were so many people gathered on Quqiu Mountain, and it may not be impossible to counterattack and recapture! And after recapture, relying on the people and savings in the city, it may not be impossible to hold on.

So, he contacted many people, including the local big family Xue Fang, and persuaded everyone to return to take the city!

However, the world has been peaceful for a long time, and suddenly encountered the Yellow Turban Incident, these big families may still have some courage, but those local officials and ordinary people do not have the courage, only say that the city is in the east, there are thieves in it, they should run to the west, and the farther away they want to escape, the better...... Cheng Li sighed at that time, 'Fools can't discuss big things together', and then made a very sassy operation!

This Cheng Zhongde actually asked people to pretend to be the Yellow Turban Army, and came from behind the west under the banner, and then those big families shouted among the fleeing officials, saying that the thieves were coming from the west, and then they swarmed the people on the mountain to the east of the city!

That Wang Du was confused, and was driven out of the city alive by Cheng Li and Xue Fang with a group of ordinary people who inexplicably returned! And by the time the former came to his senses and gathered the Yellow Turban Army to attack the city, Cheng Li in the city had already found the county order to climb over the wall, raised the banner of the imperial court, and appeased the people's hearts, but it was already impossible to attack!

"Don't hide it from your nobles!" The Hao family surnamed Xue finally spoke. "That Wang Du later fled to Puyang, and saw the thief Shuai Bu Ji, who was ignorant and incompetent, and did not know how to reward and punish in moderation, but instead of punishing Wang Du, he appeased him, and asked him to lead three thousand evil thieves to guard Wei Township...... Such a ridiculous person is a guard, and if you want to come to the imperial court, you will definitely be able to take Wei Township in one battle! ”

Rao is Cao Cao knew that the other party was patting the horse, but at this time, he couldn't help squinting his eyes and laughing: "That's right, my brother Yuan let the young kill, known as strong, how can he not attack a small township where such a ridiculous person is stationed?!" ”

Everyone in the banquet thought they were amused.

However, the slap in the face was just there.

Three days later, Yan County came to the good news first, and Cui Sima gave birth to a lotus, saying how he was good at fighting and how he was good at strategizing, and he took down the county seat of Yan County in a war!

Of course, Gongsun Xun knew clearly from the scouts sent by Chu Yan, and it was the Wang clan of the Yan County clan who played a huge role...... After the people of the Wang family saw Cui Sima, they personally entered the county seat of Yanxian County overnight, and said that they had mobilized several Haoqiang who defected to the Yellow Turban Army. In the battle that day, these heroes first encouraged the local marshal to lead the troops out of the city to face the battle, but after the other party went out, they directly sealed the city gate in the city! The Yellow Turban Army was panicked and lost its head, and then someone launched from the side of the little handsome man and suddenly took off his head! When the oncoming officers and soldiers rumbled in, the thief army naturally surrendered without a fight!

However, this concealment does not really matter...... Those few heroes are only looking for disregard for past suspicions, where will they take credit? As for the Wang family, naturally invite them to find Cui Sima!

However, just when everyone in White Horse City was elated, thinking that the Yellow Turban of Dongjun was vulnerable, Xiahoudun sent someone to report in embarrassment...... That Wei Township, which was guarded by the incompetent Wang Du, was really difficult to overcome!

Moreover, according to the messenger's description, Xiahoudun, the main general of the Han army on this road, was shot by Wang Ducong, the defender of the Yellow Turban Army in the city, because he tried to climb the city wall in person...... Hurt your shoulder! That's not all, then Wang Du actually dared to take advantage of the situation to lead troops out of the city to counterattack, and chased the injured Xiahoudun and the Han army who lost their command all the way for more than ten miles!

Although everyone was a cavalryman and ran fast, there was no loss of muscle and bone as a result...... But Liu Bei, who was pressed by the rear army, was stabbed in the ribs because of this, which was also embarrassing!
