Chapter 692
"Shema!"
Liu Lan pulled the reins of the horse, stopped the pursuing dragoons, and turned his head to Guan Yu and Xu Huang behind him: "After chasing for more than 30 miles, the team is sleepy and tired, so I see this is it!" ”
Xu Huang drove straight into that is famous, turned over and dismounted, and said while brushing the horse's nose: "Sima is right, we have chased for more than 30 miles, but we have never seen Yangyi's figure, maybe he has already dispersed with the rest of the remnants to other places, and then chase down, just empty horsepower, there will not be much gain, after all, today's battle was a complete victory, the enemy lost more than ninety percent, even if the remaining enemies fled back to Xiangping, Gongsun Du no longer has the ability to compete with them." ”
"Yes, our battle completely shattered Gongsun Du's wishful thinking of dominating Liaodong, this battle can be won, thanks to the lives of the three armies, Yun Chang's strategizing, especially the mine army with 4,000 against the enemy 40,000, for the final victory to gain precious time, these sacrificed heroes died well, it is their sacrifice, in exchange for our final victory, brothers in the spirit of heaven must be comforted."
Liu Lan said movingly, turned to Yan Zhi and commanded, and said: "The aftermath of this battle is handled by you and all the military commanders, remember that no matter how difficult our Xinchang is now, the funeral must be implemented, and there must be no deduction." ”
"No!" Yan Zhi promised.
Liu Lan's face looked a little better, and he turned over and got on his horse: "It's time to meet Bai Xuan, if there is no him in this battle, not only will he not achieve such a brilliant victory, but it will even be difficult to achieve victory, for this, Liu Lan is grateful to him from the bottom of his heart." Especially after learning that he disappeared in the chaos, he even slandered him, and at this moment, he naturally had to take the blame. But just as he was about to leave, Li Xiang came with a piece of news. They forced the remnants of the enemy up a mountain beam and asked Sima about his next combat deployment.
Liu Lan asked the messenger where Li Xiang was at the moment, when Li Xiang and Sima attacked Bai Xuan together, the position was in the northwest direction, and when they came to the aid of the mine army, they marched in the southeast direction like Sima, but why did this kid suddenly run in the direction of due north?
That's outrageous, isn't it? Could it be that this kid is lost? Or did he march again in a hurry, rushing due north to intercept the enemy?
The Black Wind Army, who came to deliver the message, relieved Sima's confusion, and Li Xiang had no intention of rushing to the southeast from the beginning. In his words, when we go to the daylily, it will be cold, not to mention eating meat, and we won't even have soup to drink.
Therefore, he told us that if we still wanted to drink soup, we had to go straight behind the enemy and attack the enemy in front and behind Sima, but this bold move did not get much response, and doubts appeared, and we should continue to rush to the southeast to rescue the mine army according to Sima's request.
But Li Xiang didn't listen and was stubborn. used the phrase 'the general will not be subject to the military order abroad' to drown out all doubts, and on the way, Li Xiang got the news of the enemy's defeat, and then he immediately changed the marching route again and marched due north. Lay an ambush before the enemy army and successfully force the enemy army up the hill.
"A good general is not subject to !! military orders abroad" Liu Lan glanced at everyone and laughed in unison. This Li Xiang was really addicted to interspersing tonight, and immediately ordered in a loud voice: "The dragoons continue to march." Go to Li Xiang to destroy the besieged enemy! ”
After saying that, Liu Lan made it easier for them to separate, and the overall situation was decided. The front line does not need him to command it personally, as he said, the most important thing now is to meet Baek Xuan, and the key is to completely win the 20,000 Xiangping troops to him, and of course, the captured Xiangping army.
~~~~~~
Liu Lan left his own soldiers and only took Zhang Fei back to see Bai Xuan and Jin Guang, and saw the two of them halfway, compared to Bai Xuan's rough appearance, Jin Guang was elegant and elegant, although he fought back, but he was not blind, he had his own judgment, otherwise he would not really go back to a fight, and the following offenses, no matter what, Gongsun Du was appointed by the imperial court to guard Liaodong, and his surrender was almost the same as rebellion.
But the reason why he finally surrendered was a decision made after careful consideration, Gongsun Du was unpopular, if they raised the banner to deal with him, they would definitely get the support of Xiangping from the big clan to the people, then they would be able to be the king and hegemon like Gongsun Du in Liaodong, instead of being at the mercy of others like now.
It is an eternal truth that people die for wealth and birds die for food.
"Haha, Captain Bai and Captain Jin, if it weren't for the help of the two today, they would never easily defeat Yangyi, for their benevolence and righteousness, Liu is deeply grateful here!"
"Liu Xianjun's words are serious, Gongsun Du is perverse, such an unjust battle, even if there is no Bai, it will definitely be defeated."
"What Captain Bai said is good!" Jin Guang agreed, although now they can be regarded as grasshoppers on a rope, but anyone can see that Jin Guang has concerns in his heart, although Liu Lan doesn't know why he is so worried, but he can still guess a thing or two, the current situation, what really worries people is whether the court will blame it, just like when he was in Jiangyi, it is estimated that Jin Guang is afraid that the court will be angry, after all, Gongsun Du is the Liaodong Taishou personally appointed by Dong Zhuo, who made waves in the capital.
If Dong Zhuo (the imperial court) was angry, once he sent troops to ask for the unsubordinate ministers who had committed the offence, what would they do to resist, so Jin Guang regretted his conflict.
I thought I could fight for a fortune but I didn't expect to fall into a desperate situation, the most important thing is that even if the imperial court does not send troops to attack, but because of geographical factors, not to mention Liaodong, the entire Youzhou has always been Ji and Qing in the aid of grain and grass, they don't want to be a prince of Liaodong, when the lifeline is cut off, whether they can eat enough is a problem.
"The two of you can rest assured, now it is not as good as the Ling Emperor Dynasty, presumably both of them have also heard that Dong Zhuo abolished the Young Emperor and established Chen Liuwang Xie, and now Luoyang has constant internal worries, what effort do you have to deal with our external troubles? What's more, it was Gongsun Du who was unkind in front, which caused the resentment of the people in Liaodong to boil, and we waited for Xingyi to crusade against injustice, how could the court blame it? ”
Liu Lan's words completely dispelled the concerns in the hearts of the two, not to mention that in order not to give people a handle, he didn't want to move Gongsun Du, this immobility is actually the meaning of house arrest and supporting puppets, it seems to be a redundant move, but in fact, today's Liaodong can not compare to the Northeast in later generations, in today's words, it is a completely barren land, the survival status is extremely bad, the land is vast and sparsely populated, especially in winter, the people can't even easily get out, if the snow covers the mountain, Liaodong, no, It is the east of the right Beiping that has completely severed the connection with the Central Plains, and it is in this situation that Liu Lan must hurry up to find such a cold-resistant thing as cotton, but in the past half a year in Liaodong, he only found soybeans, and nothing else has been found, so at present, he can only secretly accumulate strength, not to make a bird.
But fortunately, with the surrender of Bai Xuan and Jin Guang, it can be said that Liu Lan has taken the first step to success, and it is also the most solid step. (To be continued......)
