The next day, as Liang Zhongning led the 10,000 Yellow Turban troops in Zhucheng of Henan Province to cross the river from Cangting to the north, all the men and horses of the Han army also returned to Dong'e, which was not far from Cangting, to listen to the order.

"There's not much to say about it now." In the hall of Dong'e County Temple, Lou Gui suggested unyieldingly. "In any case, we should summon Xuan Zhengnan and Wang Shuzhi on the Yellow River to Cangting, and then the cavalry should cross the river immediately in order to start a war in Hebei!"

All the generals are awe-inspiring, and some people have serious faces, and some people are happy...... The former are mostly heavy-minded, and the latter think more about making contributions.

"It's a natural thing." Gongsun Xun, who was sitting at the top, immediately responded. "But in addition to that, you also have to consider the enemy of Puyang."

"The enemy of Puyang is now nothing more than two ways to go, one is to stick to Puyang and not move; Second, the whole army sent troops across the river to support Zhang Bo and Liang Yuan. Lou Zibo replied with a twist, still proud. From the perspective of our army, it is nothing more than two ways to go, one is to let the three of Baima Yangzi Zhang, Dunqiu Lianzijing, and Xiancheng Li retreat not move, faintly encircling Puyang and clamping Bu has been; The second is that the whole army crosses the river, concentrates its forces to fight, and does not pay any attention to Puyang! ”

"Uncle Zi has already said it thoroughly!" Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh. "The military situation is complicated, but Ke Zibo can plan on the spot, and the camera is assigned, and there is nothing missing, which can be called a clear military plan...... When you and I were stubborn in Wanluo, where would you have thought that there is today? ”

"Brother Meng De is right." Gongsun Xun also said with a smile. "These days, everyone in the army always says that I use soldiers like a god, but they don't know that Uncle Zi's strategy is stronger than mine!"

As soon as these words came out, the captains of the Luoyang North Military Academy naturally couldn't get along, and even acquaintances such as Han Dang and Lu Fan inevitably praised them, which made Lou Gui's face crimson, so he had to smile and say nothing.

However, just when the hall was lively, a person suddenly flashed out from under the hall and said proudly: "Lou Jun is well-organized, and his analysis of the battle situation is like a cow, and he is also admired below." However, as the commander of the first army, what does General Gongsun want? Is it to fight a decisive battle in Hebei, or to take the land of Hebei first and then besiege Puyang? Do you want the Puyang thieves to hold on, or do you want the thieves to cross the river with the whole army in one battle? ”

Everyone followed the prestige, but saw that this person was more than eight feet tall, with a thin appearance, a long age, a pair of sword eyebrows slightly erected, and a strong posture, it was the local celebrity Cheng Licheng Zhongde.

In all fairness, this person suddenly interjected at this time, which was already a behavior of ignoring the atmosphere, which was very impolite, but everyone remembered Gongsun Xun's courtesy to this person, so they had to sneer and silence each other.

"Then I'll be blunt." Gongsun Xun glanced at Lou Gui to appease, and then immediately turned back and replied. "In my opinion, I naturally want all the Puyang thief troops to cross the river, meet the troops in one place, and decide the affairs of Dongjun in a battle in Hebei. Just ......"

"It's just that the thief army of Puyang lies in Bu and not in the general," Cheng Li said solemnly. Therefore, although the general wants to do something, he can only do it passively...... Right? ”

"Not bad!" Gongsun Xun couldn't help but look forward to it. "Cheng Gong doesn't have a plan to transfer Bu out of Puyang?"

Cheng Li couldn't help but smile when he put his hands together: "General, whether you can transfer it out depends on whether the other generation has the intention to come out...... Only when he is willing to come out in his heart can he have the possibility of acting according to his character and ideas. ”

Gongsun Xun also couldn't help but get up and laughed: "Then does Cheng Gongzhi know this Bu Ji's mind and character?" ”

Cheng Li immediately smiled again: "Bu has been a native of Dongwuyang in this county, and he has been a disciple of Zhang Jiao since the creation of Taiping Dao ten years ago. ”

Everyone in the hall became serious at this time, that is, Guan Yunchang continued to raise his neck and did not look at the people in the hall directly, but his ears were also pricked up.

"That ......"

"Don't hide it from the general." Cheng Li said frankly. "In my opinion, according to Bu's generous character, as long as we leak the critical situation of the Yellow Turban Thieves in Hebei, he will have some rescue intentions...... It's his character, naturally. And if you can add some other rumors to his ears, he will definitely not be able to hold back and directly cross the river to help. ”

Gongsun Xun was also simply, and actually stood up directly and asked, "Please also ask Cheng Gong to speak clearly." ”

"As far as I know, this Bu has no doubt about Zhang Jiao," Cheng Li replied calmly. "Now the situation is not conducive to the battle between Zhang Jiao and the general's teacher Lu Bus on the Hebei side, and the imperial court wants the general to abandon Puyang after destroying the enemy in Hebei, go north directly, and raid Zhang Jiao from the rear...... In this case, they will definitely not be able to hold back! ”

"But how can rumors reach Bu Ji's ears?" Gongsun Xun asked again.

"The general has even taken down several cities, even a big clan like the Li family has raised a crowd to help, and even the Yellow Turban thief pillar like Liang Yuan has rushed to Hebei, where will Puyang City live in peace?" Cheng Li couldn't help but laugh in response. "The general might as well withdraw the soldiers and horses from Baima and Xiancheng, and leave some words around, and the news will naturally reach Bu Ji's ears."

"How sure is Cheng Gong?" Dong Zhao on the side suddenly asked coldly.

"I'm ninety percent." Cheng Li replied proudly. "But if you say so, I'm afraid you won't believe it either, so you will say that it's all right."

"Whoever wins by five points can do it." Gongsun Xun did not hesitate. "What's more, ninety percent? Just do it! Tell Zhenzheng Nan and Wang Shuzhi on the Yellow River that the whole army is about to cross north, and Li Jin and Yang Kai of Xiancheng will also cross the river together, so that they can get ready. ”

All the generals rode down from Cao Cao, the commander of the capital, and they all obeyed the order.

"Dare to ask the general!" Then, in the midst of the sound of armor, Cheng Li still stood tall. "If Puyang Bu has crossed the river, Bu has 20,000 soldiers, Liang Yuan has 10,000 soldiers, Zhang Bo has 10,000 soldiers, and there are 40,000 soldiers and horses.

"You are a brilliant person, but do you doubt our combat strength?" Although Guan Yu saw Cheng Li for the first time, he felt that he couldn't see it.

"Can't I doubt it?" Cheng Li refused to let it. "You must know that if this policy is implemented, the safety of 600,000 people in Dongjun will be under this war."

"Hahaha......"

Guan Yu was about to say more, but when he saw Gongsun Xun holding his knife up to the sky and laughing, the sound shook the roof tiles, so he retracted slightly, took half a step back, and bowed slightly like other generals...... But it is a bit of a confession.

On this side, Gongsun Xun laughed for a long time before he put away his voice, but he still smiled on his face, but he said to Cheng Liyang again: "Cheng Gong, if I say that this battle is ten percent sure, you will not believe it, even so, I will say that it is ninety percent!" What do you think? ”

Cheng Li's color immediately changed, but he retreated respectfully and bowed to each other.

"Prepare to cross the river." Gongsun Xun didn't say much, but as soon as he gave an order, he threw down the full hall of civil and military affairs, and walked out with a knife.

In this way, since the military discussion has been decided, there is no possibility of turning around, and the Han army crossed the Yellow River for the fourth time. Among them, except for Yang Kai of White Horse City, who crossed the river from the upper reaches first, all the rest of the places gathered in Cangting, and were answered by Wang Xiu, who had been cruising in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, swaying and setting off calmly.

And on the morning of this day, before leaving, Gongsun Xun, who was wearing a sword, was on the Cangting River embankment, and once again held Cheng Li's hand, unwilling to let go, which attracted Cao Cao and others to look sideways.

"Cheng Gong, Cheng Gong." Gongsun Xun sighed rarely. "I'm going to Hebei here, I'm afraid I'm going to fight in Dongjun, and it will be difficult for you and me to see each other again, are the two of us really out of luck?"

Rao is Cheng Li has a rigid personality, and he can't help but be a little moved at this time, so that he smiled bitterly: "What does the general think?" ”

"I don't know." Gongsun Xun couldn't help but shake his head. "As you said the day before yesterday, the war is continuous, and the turbulence has just started, who can say what will happen in the future?"

Cheng Li also sighed.

In other words, Gongsun Xun's words are not false, although Gongsun Aunt let him out of Liaodong, he has been on the rise for many years, and he has repeatedly done something, and in the eyes of others, he is a rare young hero today, but for himself, he has always had a feeling of going with the flow.

First, it is because the authority and system of the Han family are still so strong that it is difficult for him to make a difference, in other words, if the Han family does not collapse and crack, it will be difficult for him to stretch his hands and feet...... Of course, Yuan Benchu and Cao Mengde can't do anything;

Second, since the beginning of this year's Yellow Turban chaos, although the changes in the situation have long been expected, they are so unstoppable after the real arrival, and the so-called general trend is difficult to shake, which arouses his fighting spirit at the same time, but also makes him a little deeply confused about the future;

Third, as he himself became stronger and stronger, Gongsun Xun also discovered that although his mother's story was very valuable for reference, it was a bit foggy when it was actually fulfilled...... Think about it, after 1,800 years, how can people at that time have a deep understanding of the customs and hearts of people at this time?

For example, Cheng Li in front of him, if he follows the rhythm in his mother's story, there is no reason not to accept himself, but in fact, whether it is a smart person's waiting price or a geographical barrier, it is an objective and insurmountable thing.

Correspondingly, there are also the highlands of the sect, the school of scripture, and the former officials of the protégé...... These are things you simply can't avoid.

Of course, no matter what, with the Yellow Turban Chaos, now it is finally possible to fight with the bow and saber that the children of Youyandi are best at, although Gongsun Xun is confused, he is not afraid of anyone!

At that time, if you really encounter all kinds of difficulties, won't you just win the battle? It's really not good, how do you want to win two battles?!

In this way, on the Cangting embankment on the south bank of the Yellow River, Gongsun Xun and Cheng Li were speechless for a long time, but Cao Cao and others were bored, and they turned to the pontoon bridge and left.

For a long time, seeing that all the tribes around him had crossed the river one after another, only Han Dang led the three hundred white horse Yicong and the honor guard, umbrella cover, and scepter of the five senses Zhonglang General were still here, and Gongsun Xun would not be able to delay any longer.

"Cheng Gong take care!" Gongsun Xun knew that the other party had a strong personality and would not change his course easily, so he had no choice but to leave.

"I don't know anything else, but I haven't had a good face with the general several times, but the general can still treat me as a national soldier, listen to my words, use my strategies, and treat me with courtesy...... This alone shows that the general can win people! Cheng Li finally said with emotion. In the future, there will be chaos, maybe it will really be the general, you are in the sky! ”

Gongsun Xun smiled lightly when he heard this, and took advantage of the situation to spread his hand: "I don't know how sure Cheng Gong's words are?" ”

"I'm afraid I don't believe it when I say ten percent of generals." Cheng Li couldn't help but smile. "I said that it was eighty percent."

Gongsun Xun raised his head and laughed, then turned around and walked towards the pontoon.

However, as soon as he went down to the bottom of the embankment, he suddenly remembered something again, so he stopped and turned around, and shouted to Cheng Li on the embankment: "Cheng Gong, there is one more thing!" ”

"General, please." Cheng Li immediately responded on the embankment.

"Cheng Gong, I have a thought in my heart, which came out of me when I first saw you, but I have always been embarrassed to say it, and today is a handshake, and I don't know what to expect when we see each other, so I take the liberty of it." Gongsun Xun also bowed his hand from afar. "Everyone in Dongjun knows that when you were young, you dreamed of rising in Mount Tai and thought it was a miracle. However, on weekdays, Cheng Gong is only a county official, and he is already forty years old, so this dream only seems ridiculous. But now that the world is chaotic and the sea is swinging, aren't heroes like Cheng Gong also taking advantage of the situation and becoming famous all over the world? In this case, why not add a day to the name of the neutral character and change the name to Cheng Yu as an incentive? A little absurd, Cheng Gong decided for himself. ”

Cheng Li heard this on the embankment, and opened his mouth to speak, but saw Gongsun Xun turn around proudly, and step on the pontoon bridge to the north under the escort of a group of strong soldiers holding white horses.

Turning to Hebei, the Han army was connected with iron cables and crossed the Yellow River four times, which made the Yellow Turban of Dongjun completely unprepared.

Zhang Bo and Liang Zhongning, who had just joined forces in Hebei, had gathered more than 20,000 troops, but they were actually stationed in Dongwuyang County opposite Cangting, but they didn't dare to make extra moves because they had lost their hearts...... In fact, in the evening, after Gongsun Xun led more than 10,000 officers and troops to set up camp in the west between Dongwuyang and the Yellow River, the two still did not make any move.

The Hebei Plain is endless, from the top of the city of Dongwuyang, not to mention the Han army camp only five miles away, even the Yellow River embankment more than 20 miles away can be faintly visible. Therefore, from Uncle Zhang to a bunch of marshals, the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army who went to the city to spy on the Han army camp did not know how to deal with it, and they were worried.

However, at this moment, Liang Yuan and Liang Zhongning, the deputy marshal of the Yellow Turban Army, who had been solemn before, suddenly held on to the battlements and laughed, and immediately pointed to the neat and orderly Han army camp and said loudly:

"The Han army really hit the trick!"

From Uncle Zhang to the little handsome, they naturally didn't know why, and then they asked for advice.

"You don't know." Liang Zhongning turned around and continued to smile. "This is the strategy I made with Bu Shuai...... Let me ask you, how many people are in our army in Dongwuyang now? ”

"Twenty thousand!" This kind of thing is well known to everyone present.

"Not bad." Liang Zhongning continued to ask calmly. "What about the Han Army?"

"At a glance, you can see that in fact, compared with the day when you crossed the river from Puyang, it seems that there are not many new people, or more than 10,000!"

"Not bad." Liang Zhongning became more and more proud. "Then let me ask you again, if our army of 20,000 goes out of the city to meet the battle, and when the battle is in full swing, Bu Shuai suddenly leads 20,000 horses from Puyang to cover up from the embankment of the Yellow River, what will be the situation?"

Without waiting for everyone's reply, Deputy Marshal Liang took the initiative to explain step by step: "It's 40,000 to 10,000, and it's a two-sided attack!" You say, did the Han army fall for the trick? ”

The little marshals suddenly realized, and then they each smiled happily, and asked for verification one after another, will Bu Shuai come to help? Naturally, I was pleasantly surprised when I got an affirmative answer...... After all, judging from their tactical level, if Bu Shuai really came, then it would naturally be a matter of course to attack with four enemies and one, front and rear.

So, while the little marshals of the Yellow Turban Army were excited, they also put down their minds, and only said that they would obey the dispatch of Liang and Zhang, and it would be no problem to send troops whenever they wanted, and then they went back to the city to enjoy the treasures, food, and women that they had brought with them in the army before.

For a while, there were only two people left in the city, Zhang Bo and Liang Yuan, and Liang Zhongning's face instantly turned cold.

"Vice Marshal Liang." Zhang Bo thought for a moment when he saw this, but he said sincerely. "Since you have an agreement with Bu Shuai when you come, then I will not fight with you for power, you can rest assured that although you are dispatched here in Hebei, I will never delay things."

Liang Zhongning couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "Uncle Zhang thinks too much, I don't have an agreement with Bu Shuai to fight back and forth...... Actually, I was worried that Bu Shuai would be unbearable because of our large numbers, and then really abandon Puyang and come here. ”

"What's going on?" Uncle Zhang's heart immediately cooled down.

"Nothing happened." Liang Yuan pointed to the Han army camp in the distance and said sadly. "I only learned from fighting the Han cavalry in Henan that the combat power of our Yellow Turban Army is really not the same as that of the Han Army! With such elite cavalry, how can we people stop it with one enemy and four enemies? ”

"Can you flank ...... back and forth?"

"It won't work." Liang Yuan continued to sigh. "There are more than 10,000 Han troops, including six or seven thousand cavalry and three or four thousand infantry, all of which are elite. Moreover, the river embankment is a little far away from here after all, even if Bu Shuai really comes, they can also let the infantry rely on the camp to resist and delay us, and then use the cavalry to fight while Bu Shuai has just crossed the river, and finally turn around and eat us! Therefore, Bu Shuai came here, except for burying the army in vain, it was useless. ”

"That'...... So why are you still lying to everyone? Zhang Bo was still puzzled while being frightened.

"What if you don't lie?" Liang Yuan became more and more gloomy. "Dongwuyang is a small city, there is not much food, and the marshals only wanted to enjoy themselves when they occupied the cities before, when we hurriedly let them come out to gather, they did not bring food at all, but brought goods and women, and I was chased around by the Han cavalry in Henan, and I came here empty...... Vice Marshal Zhang, you say, how long can the city last? And if it can't hold on, what can you do except deceive everyone and let the army take the initiative to go out of the city to fight, in order to survive in death? ”

Zhang Bo lowered his head and thought for a moment, but he still bowed respectfully: "Whether it is a front and rear attack, or a death to survive, Deputy Marshal Liang is ten times better than me in battle...... Therefore, for the great cause of the Yellow Sky, it is still the same sentence, this time I will listen to your dispatch, there is no other word! ”

Liang Yuan stared thoughtfully at the person in front of him, but he was speechless.

Turning back to Puyang, Henan, as Cheng Li and Liang Yuan guessed together, just knowing that Zhang Bo and Liang Yuan led nearly 20,000 other subordinates of the Yellow Turban of Dongjun to be trapped in Dongwuyang, Hebei, Bu has already been at a loss......

Where does he know what to fight?!

In fact, the Yellow Turban Army is only the Yellow Turban Army after all, a rabble that has only been in the army for two months, and if the quality and armament of the low-level soldiers are not very backward, then the military experience and ability of the top-level leaders are undoubtedly the weakest...... Not to mention anything else, it is ridiculous in itself that a group of religious people who draw talismans and apply water on weekdays let them lead tens of thousands of troops, let alone formulate military strategies for local battlefields.

As a result, Bu himself first had the heart to rescue; Then, a group of Yellow Turban soldiers who had relatives and friends and old friends came to ask for ...... In the eyes of these people, even if the Han army is strong, 40,000 people can fight 10,000 people, and there are still some fights.

However, Bu Ji still hadn't made up his mind at this time, because he still remembered Liang Yuan's words before leaving...... Until the rumors in the city suddenly arose, saying that the Han army had abandoned Baima and Xiancheng this time, but they wanted to ignore Puyang after fighting this battle in Hebei, turn around and go north, and go to Jizhou to cut off the back road of the great sage and good teacher!

The rumors have noses and eyes, and Bu has combined the information he knows, and he is also worried:

For example, Bu already knew that Gongsun Xun, the leader of the Han army in front of him, was a student of Na Lu Zhi, who fought against General Tiangong in the North Road; For example, when the Han army evacuated Xiancheng, there was a military academy that made a mistake, and if Zhang Jiao was destroyed in one fell swoop, everything would be fine; For another example, before the loss of Dunqiu and Weiguo, when the road was smooth, Bu had indeed known that the great sages and good teachers had some signs of defeat in Wei County......

For example, in the past few days, good news has come from the south, saying that Yingchuan Bocai Bo Marshal won a complete victory in the battle with the Han army, forcing Zhu Jun, the commander of the Han army in the south, to lead troops to retreat to Changshe...... But at this time, it has actually become a proof that Gongsun Xun may send troops to cut off the back road of the great sage and good teacher!

Or else? It must be that the Han army lost the war, and was ready to change its strategy and besiege and kill the great sage and good teacher in one fell swoop, and as soon as the great sage and good teacher died, wouldn't the great cause of Huang Tian be broken without a fight?

Of course, Bu is not a fool...... He also thought about whether it would be a strategy of the Han army to deliberately lead him across the river.

But......

"But Wang Shuai." Bu had already leaned on the head of the city to the north and sighed. "What if I lose here? The overall situation is in the great sage and good teacher! Or at the Yingchuan River in the south...... Now that the south has won and not mentioned, if the great sages and good teachers in the north are lost, what is the use of me guarding Puyang? Moreover, this is indeed a rumor, the 20,000 troops of the two deputy marshals of Beimian Liang and Zhang have been lost, can Puyang hide from it? At that time, the Han army raised a crowd to besiege the city, and I was just barely struggling. ”

Wang Du, who was about to say more, waved his hand again and again, and said directly: "Wang Jun, I used to listen to Deputy Marshal Liang say a word in the book, and he said it very well, he said that people are inherently dead, or heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than Hongmao...... I am over fifty years old, and now I am raising troops against the Han Dynasty, just to help the great sages and good teachers create a yellow sky, and if the overall situation is not in me, I must move for the overall situation, so as not to die like a feather! ”

Wang Du sighed, but he didn't persuade more: "Bu Shuai is right, not to mention that our army is defending Puyang and dying of hardship, it will be laughed at by the world, that is, crossing the Yellow River in the north, 40,000 troops against 10,000 officers and soldiers, but there may not be no way to win!" ”

"Does Wang Shuai have any ideas?" Bu had hurriedly asked seriously.

"Repeated defeats, I don't dare to call it a strategy." Wang Du smiled bitterly. "It's just that I think that there is no Han army in Henan now, and Puyang has collected a lot of ships before, doesn't this mean that we can cross the river from anywhere? Even so, if our army crosses the river from Cangting and suddenly appears behind the Han army, the two deputy marshals of Dongwuyang, Liang and Zhang, must also be able to see it, and when the time comes, not only will we be able to calmly cross the river with their assistance, but we may also be able to attack back and forth and win in one fell swoop! ”

Bu had thought about it again and again, but finally clenched a fist and smashed it on the battlements: "Why should Wang Shuai be too humble, this is a very clever strategy!" Then I asked Wang Shuai to command the boat division, deal with the Han army boats carefully, and go to Cangting...... Let's cross the river from Cangting and fight to the death! ”

Wang Du was also grateful when he saw that the other party had given him a heavy responsibility despite his three defeats, and immediately bowed his head and swore to obey.

Three days later, the judge stationed in the Yellow River personally sent the news of the Puyang Yellow Turban Army down the river and gathered at Cangting to the Han army camp outside Dongwuyang City.

Gongsun Xun, who was sitting in the middle of the military tent, couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh after listening to the report, but after laughing, he looked at the three proudly armored men in the tent:

"Demou, Su Qing, and Cheng Lian, do you three still need to worry that this time it is too late and you will return in vain? I see, we worked so hard a few days ago to make wedding dresses for you! ”

Hearing this, he couldn't help but look at it again and again.

—————I'm the dividing line of looking up and down—————

"Xun will cross the river, and Cheng Cheng will stand up on the embankment and say goodbye: 'The Han family is in danger, just when the hero is using his life, Cheng Gong is brilliant and wise, and he should take the lead!' Immediately feel his words, but take the elderly as his hometown, and he should not in the end. To return, the night dream in Mount Tai to rise from the sun, the word Xun is in response to this omen, is for the night sigh. The next day, he changed his name to Cheng Yu to encourage the future and not lose the opportunity. ——"Heroes of the Late Han Dynasty". Wang Cang
