Chapter 323 The thieves attack in three ways
Just three days after Huangfu Song's whole army set out, the Xiliang battalion ushered in the opportunity of the first counterattack, and the thieves attacked Chang'an in three ways.
The group of generals under the tent gathered, General Dong Zhuo of Zhenwei, Sima Sun Jian, the main army of the Sun family, Zhou Shen, the vanguard officer of General Dangkou, Yuan Peng, who joined the army, Leng Zheng, the captain of Huqiang, and the emperor who had just canonized the Liangzhou Assassin Shi Geng, dozens of generals, large and small, Zhang Wen finally had some pride.
"Geng Tingshi, the emperor sent you here this time, do you have any new instructions?" Zhang Wen looked at Dong Zhuo and asked without changing his face.
It stands to reason that Dong Zhuo, as the predecessor of Liangzhou Assassin History, when the edict was not issued, no one could replace it, but Geng Contempt held the holy decree in his hand, and it was the emperor's own seal, and no one dared to say more at this time, plus Dong Zhuo previously appointed General Zhenwei, it seems that this is the emperor to reward and punish after the war, if he wins, I am afraid that he will be on the horizon~~~ But if he is defeated~~~ A piece of paper can beat him back to his original form.
"Humph!! It seems that there are people in the court who are making ghosts~~" Dong Zhuo said secretly in his heart, and he had no choice but to stare at Geng Qi with those fierce eyes.
Geng Yan didn't even look at him, looked at Zhang Wen and said with a smile, "Sikong has worked hard and made great achievements, this time the emperor specially ordered the lower officials to come to treat Sikong, and the general also specially instructed me to bring his heart" Saying this, he clapped his hands, and saw two people each carrying a tray to the front.
Zhang Wen looked at it fixedly, and saw that one of the trays was full of ten gold ingots, each of which weighed a full catty, and only these ten ingots of gold were no less than a hundred gold, which could be described as a generous gift.
On the other tray is a red python robe, embroidered with gold edges, lined with fluff, extremely luxurious, Zhang Wen laughed twice, stood up and reached out to pick up the python robe and draped it behind him, turned around twice in the tent and smiled, "How is it, does it fit?" ”。
"The general specially customized for Sikong, and it fits naturally~~~ The general said, no matter whether you win or lose~~ There are generals in the DPRK and China who are in charge for you, please let go of your hands and feet."
"Okay~~~ Give Geng Thorn History a seat~~~" Zhang Wen was in a good mood and ordered to say.
Dong Zhuo was furious on the side, and he woke up in his heart and said, "It turns out that the ghost of He Butcher is the ghost again, and it seems that Geng Pifu is also his person~~~ Lao Tzu will one day make you pay the price~~Hmph~~."
Dong Zhuo was secretly angry, but Sun Jian on the side was also sitting on pins and needles, he came from afar to help him, he ignored it, and looked at it coldly, the general sent a python robe and a few ingots of gold, he was so happy, he was really incompetent, no wonder Dong Zhuo despised him so much.
But thinking about it, I didn't come here to see the excitement, if I didn't establish some meritorious deeds, and break out some prestige, how could I be worthy of the name of the head of the Sun family, thinking of this, Sun Jian came out of the column and said, "Zhang Sikong, since the military situation is urgent, let's discuss countermeasures as soon as possible, although the python robe given by the general is good, it can't be used to retreat from the enemy~~~."
"Presumptuous, rushing to laugh at the things given by the general in front of Sikong, it is really audacious, Sikong must punish him severely!!" Zhou Shen shouted angrily, pointed at Sun Jian and shouted.
"How dare you say it again!!" Huang Gai was short-tempered, and he couldn't hold back his emotions for a long time, so when he heard this, he immediately jumped out, grabbed Zhou Shen and glared angrily.
Zhang Wen snorted coldly at this time, "Stop me, what kind of system is the quarrel in the handsome tent, today is a major event of the military aircraft, I will not take such a subsection to heart" Saying this, the python robe did not take off, and sat directly on the handsome position, and with a wave of his hand, the gold ingot was brought down.
"Si Qi is like a sea, we are ashamed of ourselves, it's just that he insulted the general, I can't be angry" Zhou Shen slapped Huang Gai's palm back and hummed.
"Hey~~ The head of the Sun family is also in a hurry, and he has no intention of making a mistake, General Zhou will give up, now let's start the discussion, and the commander can talk about the current situation."
"Yes!" A herald of the cavalry battalion came out and said, "There are three thieves and soldiers, marching in different directions in the direction of my Chang'an, and the first to bear the brunt is the Longxi Caohan military horses under the command of Bian Zhang, the number is around 30,000.
"It's surprising that the Bian Zhang dog thief has gathered such a large number of troops, Dong Zhuo, are you familiar with this person?" Zhang Wen asked with a snort.
Dong Zhuo didn't seem to hear it, but he still stood aside and ignored it, his eyes relaxed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Dong Zhuo!! Did you hear me ask!! Zhang Wen snorted.
"Oh~~~ What did Zhang Sikong ask?" Dong Zhuo responded listlessly.
"Humph! The side chapter just mentioned gathered 30,000 people, and it has approached Jincheng, are you familiar with this side chapter? Although he knew that Dong Zhuo pretended to be deaf and dumb, Zhang Wen was helpless, who said that now is the time to employ people, and this local snake still needs to be kept.
Dong Zhuo touched the beard on his face, shook his head and said, "Sikong, what is this, Bian Zhang is a thief, how can I be familiar with him, even his name I have only heard about it for a short time, I don't know~~~~."
"Hmph~~~" Zhang Wen saw that he shirked it, so he had to ask others again, "Does anyone know the origin of this side chapter?" ”。
At this moment, there was a big man behind Geng Contempt who came out and said, "The last general has heard of this person, this chapter is a person from Jincheng, he likes to make friends with righteous people since he was a child, because he is competitive by nature, so he often gathers people to fight, but this is already a matter of his childhood, and then it seems that he learned a skill from his teacher, and now since he rebelled, it must be the reason for the master."
"Do you know the situation of his teacher?".
"I don't know this general, but it should be a person from Longxi Caohan, otherwise why do Longxi people respect him so much."
Zhang Wen looked at him and asked, "Who is this?" Why are you so familiar with Bian Zhang? ”。
"Hehehe~~~ But I'm just a partial general, and I've lived in Xiliang for a period of time since I was a child, so I also know some secrets, so I don't have to be surprised."
Zhang Wen didn't say anything after hearing this, nodded and said, "What is the situation of the other two people, let's talk about it in detail."
The commander continued, "Yes, another anti-thief Han Sui also led tens of thousands of thieves to lurk in Longxi, the target is Jincheng, as if to form an encirclement with Bian Zhang, if Jincheng is lost, Yongzhou will be on the ground, Annan, Tianshui, will fall under the control of the thieves."
The commander paused for a long time, and saw that everyone was bowing their heads and pondering, and no one asked, so he had to continue, "This last way is the Huangzhong Yi led by Li Wenhou and Beigong Boyu from Hu and Heguan bandits, the two of them have joined forces, and now they are stationed in Wuwei, and the strength is unknown, but for some reason they have stopped moving forward, and there has been no movement for a few days."
"Why is that?" Zhang Wen asked.
"The last general thinks that this is the main force of the thieves, and it can also be said that it is the source of the chaos," Sun Jian said loudly.
On the side, Zhou Shen was unconvinced, "Why do you say that, this rebellion only said that Bian Zhang Han Sui rebelled, and did not mention the names of Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou at all, these two people are likely to take the opportunity to make a profit, so they sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and wait for the battle of Jincheng to be decided before the victory or defeat is decided."
"Well~~ makes sense, General Zhou's analysis is reasonable, why is the head of the Sun family not convinced?".
Sun Jian glanced at Zhou Shen and replied, "Bian Zhang, Han Sui is just a big Han grass people, and he doesn't have much prestige, why did he suddenly rebel, isn't it strange?" If there is no one behind them to support them, I am afraid that the two of them will not have the courage, but in the land of Xiliang, I really can't think of anyone else who can give them such courage" Speaking of this, Sun Jian glanced at Dong Zhuo unconsciously, but he didn't say anything and continued, "All I can think of is Li Wenhou and others, Huang Zhongyi has heard the names of the group of thieves from Hu and Heguan, and I have heard of them in Wudi, so I expect that they must be the ones who elected Bian Han and Han as leaders, and they shrank behind their backs and waited for the opportunity. This can be described as a strategy to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger, which is really extremely vicious."
Zhang Wen was also a little moved by what he said, because Huang Zhongyi had heard of Hu's name himself, these warriors who were known as the descendants of the Yue clan were brave and good at fighting, and they were extremely brave, and when the Qiang people were in turmoil, they took out 5,000 warriors from the clan, and slaughtered 30,000 elites of the Qiang people, which made the Qiang people frightened.
Don't look at the number of them, but they are all one hundred, not afraid of life and death, and they have been training together since childhood, with tacit understanding, they are never afraid of group battles, and the elite in the Xiliang area is difficult to outstand, and they deserve to be the first soldier in Xiliang.
I didn't expect this Li Wenhou and Beigong Boyu to turn them against each other, which made everyone feel a big headache, if they faced these warriors, they didn't know how many Han generals would have to be sacrificed.
"Sikong don't worry, I expect that Li Wenhou and others will not be easy to move, just now General Zhou has a very correct word, these two are treacherous people, they must want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, such as Bian Zhang Han Sui Sheng, they will support troops and go straight to Chang'an~~~ But if the two of Bian Han are defeated~~~Hehe~~ It's good if they don't stab them in the back, how can they still go against our big Han."
The person who spoke was the big man who joked about Bian Zhang just now, and as soon as this remark came out, everyone in the tent looked at him with admiration, even Dong Zhuo and Sun Jian, who had always been above the top, couldn't help but show different colors.
The two of them secretly wondered in their hearts, what is the identity of this person? Not only does he know a lot about Xiliang, but he is also very familiar with the customs and man-made landforms, and there seems to be nothing he doesn't know in Xiliang.
Zhang Wen's face softened slightly, and he nodded in response, "That's right, I will have my own reward later, so to speak, our main enemy in this battle is Bian Zhang, Han Sui's commander of Longxi is Han, those who are the first to be Qiang are not worried, as long as the thief army that breaks the Bian Zhang, they will be able to collapse without a fight~~~."
Then it was finally time to point the generals, Zhang Wen looked at the generals sitting down, smiled slightly and said, "This battle cannot be lost, I don't know who wants to fight this first battle."
The name of the vanguard officer is extremely important in the army, as a nominally decent vanguard officer, Zhou Shen, the general of Dangkou, of course, volunteered to take the lead in shouting, "Sikong rest assured, as long as there is me in this battle, I will win a big victory, and the last general is willing to fight this first battle first."
