Chapter Eighty-Three: Sending Troops (Seven More Requests for Subscription)
After Yingchuan, Dingying, and Ye Zhao brought their troops here, they did not continue to march, but ordered Ding Li to train and integrate men and horses, and at the same time sent a large number of scout sentries to investigate the information of the Yellow Turban in Runan, and also sat back and watched the decisive battle between Huangfu Song's army and Bocai.
Liao Hua's disappointed eyes when he left were still clear, and Ye Zhao knew very well that this general, who was favored by himself, had already had a heart for himself, and the reason was that Ye Zhao used the yellow scarf to counter Huangfu Song to achieve his own goals.
What Liao Hua thinks, Ye Zhao doesn't know, but he can roughly guess some, although he is from a family, but in the concept of the young Liao Hua at this moment, there is obviously a clear camp of good and evil, and the idea of the vast majority of people in the world is the same, an official is an official, a thief is a thief, no matter what reason Ye Zhao has, but the official and bandit collude to pit friendly troops, for this young man with a strong sense of justice, Ye Zhao is definitely not a master, at least in the short term, this future general may not have a chance with himself.
Ye Zhao didn't think that such a situation would occur, even before looking for Liao Hua, Ye Zhao had already confirmed that Liao Hua's departure was very likely afterwards, but he had no choice.
Since they have been opposed to Huang Fu Song, the two are political enemies, and the worst thing is that Huang Fu Song's status is too high, even if after this incident, he is considered a man of the Son of Heaven, but Huang Fu Song still has many ways to deal with Ye Zhao, Huang Fu Song has murderous intentions towards Ye Zhao, and Ye Zhao is the same.
In the eyes of others, this Yellow Turban Rebellion was a struggle against the imperial court, but in Ye Zhao's eyes, this was just the beginning of the reshuffling of the Han power class, so he would do whatever it took to seek the greatest benefit for himself in this struggle, but Liao Hua obviously couldn't accept it.
Although he understands, Ye Zhao can't help it, this block must be added to Huangfu Song, and Ye Zhao's side, except for Liao Hua, can't find a more suitable candidate.
In terms of ability, Qiu Chi is good at arithmetic, Ding Li is good at fighting, and Dian Wei is brave, but if it is said that he can respond to the situation, these three people are not as good as Liao Hua, not to mention that Liao Hua once worked as a Yellow Turban thief, and he knows better than others about the Yellow Turban Thief, and no one is more suitable to do this than him.
After this battle, it is impossible to subdue Liao Hua, Liao Hua is the kind of person who has his own ideas, and the conflict of ideas also made Ye Zhao lose his persuasiveness, but Ye Zhao was not disappointed, this battle could give him more political capital, and he currently has no strength to stand on his own, Liao Hua is like-minded, and there is no place to place it.
Let him go and see the hearts of people in this world first, it should be his own, and he can't run.
Huangfu Song obviously blocked the news to himself, and the intelligence in the Yangzhai area was relatively lagging behind, but at present, Bocai and Peng Tuo refused to defend the city, as long as Bocai was not stupid, he used his own strategy to use Yangzhai, Yingyin, and Yingyang counties to jointly defend, even if Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and Sun Jian were added, it was impossible to break the defense of the three counties in a short time, and after that, after he pacified the Runan Yellow Turban, he would make a plan.
"Runan Yellow Turbans, although they claim to be 200,000, but according to intelligence, they are not one." In the Dingying official mansion, Qiu Chi drew a few circles on the map with a pen in front of Ye Zhao: "Lord, please see, Runan Qu Shuai He Yi, gathered 70,000 people entrenched in the Ruyin area, although he is nominally Qu Shuai, but he has been unable to control several other Yellow Turban forces in Runan, among the many Yellow Turban thieves, there are Xiaoqu Shuai Liu Pi, entrenched in Geling, 50,000 people, Gong Du calls himself the big handsome, there are more than 60,000 people, in addition to Huang Shao, Wu Ba and other big and small leaders, there are also tens of thousands. ”
"In this way, to say that there are 200,000 yellow scarves in Runan is to say less!" Ye Zhao looked at the few places outlined by Qiu Chi on the map, shook his head and sighed: "The thirty-seven counties in Runan, the big counties are all occupied by the Yellow Turban thieves, and there are only a few small counties left, which are also unmanaged. ”
"My lord, with all due respect, all this information was obtained a month ago, and it is really hard to say what the situation in Runan is now." Qiu Chi smiled bitterly: "Judging from the information that I waited for the scouts to explore, it is a small county, and most of them are occupied by the Yellow Turban Army, or three or five hundred, or thousands of people, Liu Pi, Gong Du, Wu Ba, Huang Shao and the like, it was He Yi who was sent to occupy the city, and the result gradually grew and was not controlled by He Yi. ”
"Heh~" Ding Li couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "He Yi, this Qu Shuai, is really confused, he set up his nest in Ruyin, how to control the generals?" Moreover, after Liu Pi and others grew stronger, they acquiesced and did not have the slightest intention of seizing power. ”
"It's good, it shows that this person has no ambitions, since that's the case, then hit him first! Anyway, he is also a Qu Shuai, clean him up, Runan Yellow Turban is a plate of loose sand, and it is easy to break! Ye Zhao stroked his palms and smiled.
"It's just that this place is not less than three hundred miles away from Ruyin, and you will pass by Geling during the period, how to attack?" Qiu Chi frowned.
"You can't think of it, then He Yi definitely can't think of it, although there are many people in Ruyin, the defense will inevitably be lax, or even defenseless, Ding Li!" Ye Zhao's fingers tapped on the table and looked at the generals under the tent.
"The last general!" Ding Li took a step forward and bowed.
"Dingying is guarded by you, leaving the Yue cavalry camp, and you must not slack off in training every day, and you still call it 5,000 to the outside world." Ye Zhao looked at Ding Lidao.
"Whoa!" Ding Li bowed and looked up at Ye Zhao: "But the lord, who is going to raid Ruyin?" ”
Now around Ye Zhao, the only ones who can really be regarded as generals are Ding Li and Dian Wei, Guan Hai and Fang Yue are still recuperating in Liang State, Liao Hua doesn't know where he was sent, as for the new Du Yuan and others, it is difficult to take on the big responsibility, these people surrendered not long ago, and the people who are not in Qi have not arrived, so they will directly occupy the mountain as the king, in addition to Dian Wei's words, there is naturally nothing to say about charging into battle, but if it is said that the battle of the army is still the task of surprise attack, Ding Li does not feel that Dian Wei has this ability.
"In this battle, I should go to it myself!" Ye Zhao looked at the crowd: "The soldiers of the Liang Kingdom, each carrying three days' rations, three watches tonight, follow me out of the city." ”
"My lord, no!" Qiu Chi was shocked when he heard this.
"Nothing, forget how I got to where I am today?" Ye Zhao stood up and said loudly: "Don't look at this official too badly, Dian Wei will go with me." ”
"It's only three days ......" Qiu Chi still said with some unease, Dingying arrived in Ruyin, but there are more than 300 miles, even if the rapid march can be reached, but after arriving, what combat power is there?
"After three days, if I can't break the city, I will lead the people to retreat to Xiyang." Ye Zhao said with a smile: "Don't worry, this official won't joke with his own life." ”
Ding Li and Qiu Chi both followed Ye Zhao at the beginning of Ye Zhao's career, and they also had four years, knowing that once Ye Zhao made up his mind, he would never change, and Dian Wei didn't want to do too much, anyway, he was going to go with Ye Zhao, standing quietly beside Ye Zhao, playing with his halberd.
The plan has been decided, Ding Li immediately went to rearrange the defense, and at the same time transferred the soldiers and horses of the Liang State, these are all fought with Ye Zhao all the way, he is the most loyal to Ye Zhao, and his combat power is not low, and Ye Zhao is also convenient to use.
On the third watch, when Du Yuan was on duty, Liao Hua left, leaving him by Ye Zhao's side, he only felt uncomfortable, he was born as a bandit, and he was used to living a free life, and now in Ye Zhao's army, the military orders are strict, and he can still get together with Liao Hua and a few brothers in the past, but now that Liao Hua is gone, he has taken a few people away, which suddenly makes Du Yuan feel lonely.
Looking around, there should be nothing to do tonight, and I was looking for a place to mess around, but I suddenly heard a rush of footsteps, and suddenly a spirit stood up, at this time, the Yellow Turban Army should not appear, right? And the footsteps are also coming from the city.
Standing at the head of the city, Du Yuan frowned and looked over, and saw that under the night, torches were winding on the street, like a fire dragon, and when he got closer, he found that it was a group of soldiers and horses coming quickly from the city.
Du Yuan frowned, Ye Zhao was extremely strict in governing the army, he didn't care about it, but he was afraid of being punished for his crimes, even if he wanted to summon the soldiers to come forward and ask, before he could call someone, he heard the sound of footsteps on the city wall, turned his head to look, and saw Ding Li walking quickly towards this side with a few relatives.
"See the Captain!" Du Yuan saw that it was Ding Li, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, with a smile on his face, this is Ye Zhao's cronies, he can't compare with this kind of general, and now he is begging for food under Ye Zhao, this kind of person has to make good friends.
"Kaesong!" Ding Li glanced at Du Yuan and said in a deep voice.
"This ......" Du Yuan hesitated, Ye Zhao's military order was extremely strict, without Ye Zhao's warrant, no one could open the city without permission.
"Give!" Ding Li was satisfied with Du Yuan's performance, and took out an arrow from his arms and said, "This is the secret order of the lord!" ”
"Whoa!" Du Yuan's expression was straight, and he hurriedly bowed down to take the arrow, and after confirming that it was correct, he immediately ordered someone to open the city gate, and watched the black and oppressive army under the city rush out, in the silent night, there were only dense footsteps, which sounded a little infiltrating.
"What are these people for?" Du Yuan looked at the troops who quickly disappeared into the night, and looked at Ding Li with some curiosity.
"Don't ask, don't ask more, guard the city well!" Ding Li didn't answer, after making sure that the city gate was closed, he took back the arrow, and went straight away with his relatives, he also had to discuss with Qiu Chi and them how to redeploy, before Ye Zhao came back, Ding Ying's side only needed to hold on, and there was no combat mission out of the city.
"Phew!" Looking at the direction in which Ding Li was going, Du Yuan spat a little indignantly: "What's it!" ”
At this moment, Du Yuan really misses the life of the Yellow Turban Army a little, he is free, how can he be so aggrieved as now, there are military orders everywhere, and the people around Ye Zhao can all suppress him, which makes him very unhappy.
"Sooner or later, one day, let you see Du Ye's ability!" After Du Yuan scolded, he didn't dare to slack off, who knows if Ding Li will come back to check, he doesn't want to be punished by Ding Li in front of his brothers for so many years, and he has no face.
But what are those people for?
