Chapter 231: Soldiers Forced Luoyang
So, after dispersing the last remnants of the army, Zhang Ji collected his soldiers and horses and began to clean up the battlefield and collect the spoils of war. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Because Yuan Shao left in a hurry, most of the rear army was a heavy army, with countless grains, grasses, weapons, armor, and tents.
Zhang Ji was overjoyed, these things were the favorite of a military general like him.
A sergeant who escaped with his life caught up with Yuan Shao, who was in front of the army, and reported: "Lord, General Jiang Qi was killed by Zhang Xiu, and he lost a lot of baggage!" β
Yuan Shao was furious and was about to return to the army to cover the killing, but Guo Tu on the side hurriedly stopped him.
"Lord, it's too late to return to the army and retreat from the enemy at this time, it's better to return to Jizhou as soon as possible, so as to prevent changes." Guo Tu persuaded him.
Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said: "Zhang Ji is really too deceitful, blocking our army's westward movement for no reason, and conniving with his nephew to kill my general, this breath is really hard to swallow!" β
Guo Tu persuaded again: "My lord, these are all Zhao Qian's instructions, then Zhang Yan of Montenegro and Tian Feng of Youzhou must also be ordered by Zhao Qian to commit Jizhou." β
"Zhao Qian, I am inseparable from you!" Yuan Shao shouted at the sky.
Guo Tu continued: "My lord, the top priority at present is to return to Jizhou first to stabilize the situation, and then rectify the soldiers and horses, raise the troops of Jizhou and Qingdao, and fight with Zhao Qian!" β
Yuan Shao took a deep breath, nodded, and led the army away.
This is also fortunate that Yuan Shao went on an expedition this time, only bringing Guo Tu a strategist, if there is another one, in case of disagreement with Guo Tu, then Yuan Shao is estimated to fall into a difficult choice.
Moreover, Yuan Shao has a very awesome skill, that is, he can always choose the worst one from various suggestions.
Zhang Ji's army collected the spoils of war and transported them back to Hanoi by car, after which they wrote letters, which Su Huan personally took to see Zhao Qian.
Hanoi is not far from Luoyang, Su Huan hurried up, and came to Zhao Qian's big tent that day.
Zhao Qian looked at the appearance of the wind and dust, and said with a smile: "Zhongting, didn't I ask you to go to Hanoi to assist Zhang Ji in blocking Yuan Shao?" How did you get here? Is something wrong? β
Su Huan shook his head and said, "Lord, Yuan Shao was stopped by me and General Zhang, and he has withdrawn his troops back to Jizhou." β
Zhao Qian raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Back to Jizhou? Yuan Shao's soldiers are fierce, is he so cowardly? β
"It's not for this reason, it's just that I retreated." Su Huan replied.
Zhao Qian became interested and asked, "What strategy did the Zhongting court use?" β
So, Su Huan informed Zhao Qian of the request for the border between Zhang Yan of Montenegro and Tian Feng and Chen Bing of Youzhou to Jizhou.
Zhao Qian laughed when he heard this, and said: "The Zhongting Court can use tactics instead of strength, I am very relieved, but I don't know that going to the army to fight is the way to win." β
"Not only that, but Jiang Qi, the general under Yuan Shao's account, was also assassinated by Zhang Xiu, the nephew of General Zhang!" Su Huan continued.
Hearing this, Zhao Qian was stunned for a moment and said, "What? Killed Yuan Shao's general? β
Su Huan nodded and said, "Yes, when Yuan Shao hurriedly withdrew his troops, we pursued him, and Jiang Qi came to block it and was killed by Zhang Xiu." β
Zhao Qian couldn't help but smile bitterly, he didn't plan to turn his face with Yuan Shao now, his original plan was to use the Son of Heaven to provoke the feud between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, so that he could reap the benefits of the fisherman.
But now it seems that Zhang Xiu killed Jiang Qi, this beam is over, I am afraid that the next thing is to deal with Yuan Shao.
However, after thinking about it, Zhao Qian is also fearless, he now wants to have soldiers, generals, ministers, ministers, and territory, why be afraid of him Yuan Shaozai?
If Yuan Shao knows the fun, let him live happily for a few more days, if he dares to argue with himself, then Zhao Qian will not be polite!
Seeing that Zhao Qian's face changed, Su Huan asked with a smile: "Lord, is it wrong for us to do something?" β
Zhao Qian looked at Su Huan's appearance, laughed, and said, "What's wrong?" If Yuan Shao is not convinced, just come to General Ben! β
Xu Chu next to him also laughed and said: "Zhongting, it's just Yuan Shao, why worry about it, wait for Lu Bu to be killed, and then clean him up." β
Zhao Qian raised his hand to interrupt Xu Chu and said: "Zhongting, you have been tired from a long distance, and go to rest, Zhong Kangchuan ordered to go, and after meeting with General Xu Rong and Sergeant Bai Bo tomorrow, attack Lu Bu!"
"Order!"
The next day, Zhao Qian's three-way army turned in the north of Luoyang City, and after Xu Rong finished his salute, Han Xian and Li Le came to pay homage again.
When they saw Zhao Qian, Han Xian and Li Le were also shocked, although they had heard that this general was young and promising, but he was so young.
However, the two did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly turned over and dismounted, kneeling to pay homage.
Zhao Qian glanced at the two of them and said: "You two, you were thieves before, this general will exempt you from your crimes, you should try your best to serve the country, in order to offset the previous sins, if you make a merit, this general will definitely be rewarded." β
"Thank you, General!" The two hurriedly answered.
Zhao Qian then led a large army to Luoyang City, preparing to attack LΓΌ Bu.
Let's say that Lu Bu was in Luoyang City, and he thought that it would be Yuan Shao, but what he didn't want to usher in was Zhao Qian's three-way army, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
However, Lu Bu relied on the high walls of Luoyang and the thick city, and some time ago he had some grain and grass everywhere, and there was the danger of Luoshui, so he felt a little at ease.
Gao Shun came to see Lu Bu and said: "Zhao Qian's army has just arrived, you can take advantage of the fact that its camp is undecided, go to sneak attack, wait for work, or win." β
Lu Bu shook his head and said: "Ben Hou is newly defeated today, and there are not enough soldiers, so you can't go out lightly, wait for him to attack, and then attack it, and force it into Luoshui, then it will be done." β
It didn't take long for Zhao Qian's army camp to be completed, stretching for several miles, Lu Bu watched from the city, and saw that Zhao Qian's camp was neatly distributed, and he couldn't help but regret in his heart, and did not take Gao Shun's suggestion.
Gao Shun was also a little distressed, and said again: "Wenhou, it's better to divide the troops, I and Xuangao are stationed outside the city with infantry cavalry, if Zhao Qian attacks Wenhou, we will lead troops to attack his back; If they come to attack us, Wen Hou will form horns in order to save them. In this way, in just ten days, its food can be exhausted, and it can be broken in one fell swoop! β
Lu Bu frowned, and just wanted to agree to Gao Shun's proposal, Zang Ba said: "Bo Ping's words are reasonable, Wen Hou should be like this, I didn't listen to Bo Ping's words before, I lost the opportunity, and now I must not hesitate." β
When Lu Bu heard this, he couldn't help but be furious, and said: "There are not many sergeants, it is better to stick to it if you are far away, and there is no need to say anything." β
Gao Shun was in a hurry, and said: "Wen Hou, if you don't want to divide the troops, you can lead the elite soldiers to cut off their food routes, the army has no food, and their hearts are chaotic, this plan is wonderful!" β
Lu Bu flatly refused: "Zhao Qian is scheming, is this not his treacherous plan?" It's better not to move. Two generals, if it's okay, let's go patrol the city. β
Gao Shun and Zang Ba had no choice but to retreat, Zang Ba sighed and said, "Presumably, this time, there is no place for us to die." β
Gao Shun was also full of sorrow, and said: "Do your best, listen to the destiny of heaven." β
