Chapter 41 Fifteen Military March
In the spring of 189 AD, although the rebellion of the kingdom ended in failure, there were still dozens of forces in Xiliang, large and small, among which Jincheng and Longxi were the most powerful.
I think that in order to stabilize Xiliang, Liu Hong sent Huangfu Song to sit in Xiliang, and held the festival in Guanzhong, Huangfu Song worked hard for several years, but he could only deter them, but he could never completely digest them.
At this time, for the Great Han, the rebellion of the kingdom was not the end, but the beginning of the rebellion.
In less than three moments, outside the city of Chencang, the army heading to Heshuo had assembled and stood by, and I saw a Biao army neatly displayed on the vast field of the Liaoyuan.
The wind is flying, and the flags are surging like a tide, churning like waves.
Zhang Liao stood with a sword, his eyes fixed on the Chinese army, and with the sound of a drum from the Chinese military department, he waved his sword and ordered the army to set off immediately.
The 20,000-strong army did not move, moving like thunder, and the running war horses galloped indulgently on the field, sweeping the yellow dust everywhere they went.
The Yongliang intersecting winter and spring is extremely cold, the weather is unpredictable, sometimes it rains, sometimes the sun is released, especially when crossing the Great Wall, going up and down the mountain, cold and hot, as if experiencing two seasons.
After crossing the Great Wall, it is directly under the jurisdiction of Shuofang, and for Shuofang's nationality and five origins, it can be regarded as entering the door, so the mood of some soldiers is becoming more and more comfortable, and the steps towards the door are becoming more and more brisk.
The sky seems to be extraordinarily gracious, north of the Great Wall, the grass is long, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the climate is pleasant, and the speed of the march is faster and faster day by day.
Laughter and laughter spread from the head of the team to the end of the team, and the generals also put away their usual faces, joking with happy expressions, and they talked about their families the most, such as whose family gave birth to a big fat boy, whose daughter-in-law cooked the best food, and whose family had a girl to marry.
The corners of Lu Bu's lips curved an arc, how could he not want Yan Ziqing and Lu Lingqi, but the nine-foot body had already allowed the country, and it was difficult to allow the family.
He also wanted to bury his head in the forest spring, a corner of peace, and enjoy the joy of family, but the troubled times were disturbed, and the swords and soldiers were rampant, even if it was grass mustard, he couldn't avoid this disaster of the nest, let alone him?
"Fifteen from the army!" Suddenly there was a shout from someone in the marching procession.
"Fifteen from the Army" is a famous poem widely circulated among the people, this poem is true, profound, indignant, tear-jerking, people can sing this song, most of them are veterans in the army.
"Fifteen from the military, eighty from the beginning!" A singing voice suddenly rose from the ground, with the heroism of the Han and Qin winds, and also mixed with the high-pitched Qiang Di folk music.
Seeing that no one stopped him, the old pawn continued to sing:
Dao meets the villagers, who is there in the family?
Looking at it from afar, it is the Jun family, and the pine and cypress mounds are numerous.
“……”
When I went out and looked east, tears fell on my clothes.
All the homesick soldiers were silent, they missed the scene of their children enjoying themselves on their knees, the warm porridge cooked by their wives, and their elderly parents.
This kind of longing is deeply implanted in the bone marrow, making people unable to extricate themselves and crying.
Wei Yue felt the fluctuation of the army's heart, and hurriedly rushed to the singing old soldier, and after seeing his appearance clearly, he wrinkled his eyebrows and said, "Meng Yu, do you know the crime of shaking the army's heart?" ”
Meng Yu's eyes were red, and he didn't answer, he had been fighting with Lu Bu since he was twenty years old, and now it has been seven years, and he doesn't know if his parents, wife and daughter are okay.
"I'll report to the general." Wei Yue sighed heavily, turned his horse's head and galloped towards the Chinese army.
Lu Bu saw Wei Yue galloping over, strangled Chitu and asked, "How?" ”
Wei Yue hugged his fists and said: "General Qiyu, it's Meng Yu." ”
"Meng Yu?" Lu Bu said thoughtfully: "If I remember correctly, he should be a member of the party." ”
"Shangdang Nixian people."
Lu Bumo rubbed his increasingly lush beard under his chin and muttered, "How many people from other counties are there in the army? ”
"There are about 1,000 people, all of whom are from the state."
When Lu Bu heard this, he pondered for a while: "The officers and soldiers of the three armies have been fighting for a long time, and they have not rested, and now that there is no war in Heshuo, it is better to let them go home first, and return to the camp by themselves in a month." ”
His family members are all in Shuofang, and they can be seen at any time in their spare time, but the soldiers are different, some are from Yanmen, some are from Shangdang, and some are from Yunzhong.
At this moment, he can feel the homesickness of the soldiers, just like him, even if he is in power now, the official is the general of Duliao, there is always someone who makes him turn his steel into a finger twister
"The last general understands!" Wei Yue respectfully saluted Lu Bu, and then turned his horse's head and crossed the front of the army: "The general has an order, and the non-Shuo soldiers will come out." ”
There was a commotion in the battle array, and about a thousand soldiers slowly took a step forward, and everyone's eyes were cast on Wei Yue, and there was doubt in their eyes.
"The general has an order, all soldiers who are not from Shuofang can go home, and they will return to the camp on their own after a month, and there must be no mistakes." Wei Yue's words echoed around the ears of the soldiers like a beating war drum, and the aftermath lingered for a long time.
Suddenly, the silent army let out a tsunami-like cry at the same time, and the soldiers from other counties raised their arms and shouted, pulling their necks and shouting: "The general is mighty, the general is mighty." ”
Zhong Miao looked at this scene in a daze, his heart was like smashing a boulder and shocking the monstrous waves, the so-called soldier died for his confidant, and what Lu Bu did had won the support of the soldiers.
He even dared to be sure that as long as Lu Bu gave an order, these soldiers would not hesitate to charge into battle, pointing wherever they wanted, like fierce tigers.
He pondered: Lu Bu is so caring for the soldiers, asking for warmth, knowing that he thinks about problems from the perspective of the soldiers, and is willing to share weal and woe with them, which is called a benevolent general.
Now he is in a high position but not domineering, outstanding achievements but not arrogant, humble to people with lower status than himself, such as Wang Jun and Lou Gui, which is called a courtesy general.
In the battle of Shuofang, he won more with less, and the tactics he used were unfathomable, and he could also be described as resourceful, and he could turn defeat into victory in the face of adversity, and he knew that evil would turn into good fortune in the face of danger, which was called a wise general.
He is agile, fast as a war horse when he charges, heroic, high-spirited and capable of defeating thousands of people, good at defending the country, and good at swords, which is called a step general.
In the battle of Manyi Valley, he can climb high mountains, can take dangerous places, gallop like the wind, take the lead, and be unstoppable, which is called a fierce general.
Zhong Xuan looked at Lu Bu, who was not alarmed, and exclaimed in his heart: "This Lu Bu is not simple!" ”
Before he could come back to his senses, he saw Lu Bu make a big move, dozens of sergeants carried ten boxes to the front of the army, Wei Yue turned over and dismounted, drew his knife to split the wooden box.
I saw that these ten boxes were full of five baht coins from the Han Dynasty, Wei Yue grabbed one of them, and said loudly: "This is this month's salary, the officers and soldiers of the three armies are distributed according to their military positions, they are not allowed to take more, they are not allowed to take less, and those with military merits are doubled." ”
"No!" The officers and men of the three armies responded with a bang, and then lined up in a queue to take their respective salaries in an orderly manner.
Zhong Xuan looked at this scene in amazement, his eyes changed again and again, the soldiers were about to return home, they had no long things on their bodies, and Lu Bu's money was issued in a timely manner.
The soldiers from other counties held the heavy five-baht coin, and their hearts seemed to have overturned a jar of old vinegar, which was sour, and even more so, they wiped their tears and wept bitterly.
"After a month, I will return to the camp on my own."
Lu Bu raised his horsewhip and led the rest of his soldiers to gallop north, gradually disappearing on the horizon that grew with heaven and earth.
