Chapter 249: Yu Ban

Jin Liang looked at his nose and nose, his nose looked at his heart, and he didn't say a word, Cao Cao saw that his mouth had become a crow's mouth, so he had to shut up. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

There was a sudden silence in the big tent, only Yuan Shao gasped, desperately suppressing his anger.

Yuan Shao hated it very much in his heart, it was this Wang Kuang who was too wasteful, which made him lose face in front of so many princes, he couldn't bear it, he couldn't bear it, and slapped the table: "Wang Kuang Pifu, what a waste!" ”

The faces of the Kwantung princes were gloomy, it wasn't for you to let Wang Kuang be rash, Wang Kuangyan could end up where he is now, some of the Yuan family officials were cold in their hearts, Yuan Shao was the master who shirked his responsibilities like this.

Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xinteng stood up: "Alliance leader, I am willing to go to Zhongmu, face Xu Rong, and avenge Wang Taishou!" ”

Wang Kuang is a native of Taishan, Bao Xin is also a native of Taishan, Wang Kuang once served as the general's mansion under the command of the general He Jin, and Bao Xin served as the captain of the cavalry under He Jin.

Bao Xin is the descendant of Bao Xuan, the captain of the school, and the Bao family is a big family in Mount Tai, so Bao Xin recruited troops in his hometown to gather many people, and in just a few months, he recruited 20,000 horses, including 2,000 cavalry, and more than 5,000 vehicles carrying grain and grass materials.

Yuan Shaozheng was looking for a step down, when he saw Bao Xin jumping out, he said casually: "General Bao is very righteous, I deeply admire it, so from General Bao's request, you will lead the people of your headquarters to meet Xu Rong!" ”

Bao Xin Bao Yuncheng's face sank, and he rushed out of the big tent angrily, went to his Jibei military camp, reorganized his soldiers and horses, and prepared to lead the Jibei army alone to meet Xu Rong. Cao Cao's relationship with Wang Kuang is average, but his relationship with Bao Xin is very good, seeing Bao Xin rushing out of the big tent angrily, he hurriedly chased out: "Brother Yuncheng, don't raise troops because of anger, it's so easy to fall into Xu Rong's trap, it's better for us to think about it again!" ”

Bao Xin said angrily: "Brother Meng De, what does the alliance leader just mean?!" Do you still want to repeat the scene when the princes of the late Qin Dynasty crusaded against the Qin army?! "When the princes of various countries arrived at Julu, facing the 400,000 army led by Zhang Han, they all hid behind to watch the excitement, just to see Xiang Yu's Western Chu army and his family desperately in front!

Cao Cao smiled bitterly: "Yuncheng, you didn't see him come over this time, under the pretext that there are many Yellow Turban remnants in Runan, and the place is restless, and the fierce generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou under his command did not bring any of them, only brought 10,000 soldiers, his mind is known to passers-by, doesn't he just want to protect himself, let our troops be consumed more, and after Dong Zhuo is defeated, he will be strong and strong, just like Xiang Yu after the destruction of Qin, and we princes will bow down to him!" ”

Bao Xin sighed: "What should I do now!" Xu Rong is a general in Dong Zhuo's army, and there are more than 30,000 Xiliang soldiers under his command, all of whom are veterans of the battlefield, and the two of us are soldiers who have been in the army for several months. ”

Cao Cao pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "I see that Jin Liang, the general of the expedition to the north, brought 40,000 'fine' soldiers this time, the central army under his command is strictly trained, the military discipline is strict, and the equipment is 'fine', and in the past four or five months, he has fought with the White Wave Thieves, Black Mountain Thieves, Southern Xiongnu, Dong Zhuo's Niu Fu Yang Ding and other troops, if he is invited to attack together, he will definitely be able to repel Xu Rong!" ”

The book implies that Xingyang Bianshui is actually east of Luoyang, close to Chenliu County, and the official history records that after Cao Cao's defeat of Bianshui, Sun Jian defeated Dong Zhuo and recovered Luoyang; Luo Guanshui didn't look at the map when he wrote the romance, and made the mistake of common sense 'sex', and the time and space of the Three Kingdoms where Jin Liang lived were biased towards the official history, so he mainly used the official history and the romance as the vice.

Bao Xin was overjoyed: "I have long seen that General Jin is also very dissatisfied with Yuan Benchu, General Jin supports the Han family, 'fine' loyalty to the country, this crusade against Dong Zhuo Alliance has his first initiative, just because there are many Yuan protΓ©gΓ©s among the princes, I have to give up the position of the leader of the alliance to Yuan Shao, otherwise with General Jin's contribution to the imperial court, where is the turn to get Yuan Shao to be the leader of the alliance!" ”

Cao Cao nodded: "I think, General Jin Liang will definitely send troops, in addition, I see that Chen Liutai guards Zhang Miao is a good friend of Jin, and at the same time he is very dissatisfied with Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao recruited 10,000 horses from Runan was originally adapted from the Yellow Turban thief, the thief's 'sex' does not change, poisoning Chen Liu, Zhang Miao three times and twice bluntly advised Yuan Shao to restrain his subordinates, Yuan Shao hated Zhang Miao deeply, and once told me that after the crusade against Dong Zhuo, he would kill Zhang Miao!" I went to persuade Zhang Miao to send troops to unite our four forces, which was enough to deal with Xu Rong. ”

Cao Cao and Bao Xin came to the central army camp and asked to see Jin Liang, the doorman went in to pray, Cao Cao and Bao Xin looked at the camp of the central army, the walls were tight, the defense was tight, and they couldn't help but admire: "No wonder Jin Liang was able to defeat the White Wave Thieves, Black Mountain Thieves, and the Southern Huns, comparable to the famous generals of the ancients, with the style of Zhou Yafu, and the imperial court has this general to defend, it is really the blessing of the Han Dynasty!" ”

After a while, Jin Liang personally greeted him out of the door, and said with a smile: "Isn't Prime Minister Bao rearming for war?" I don't know what to look for? "In the Han Dynasty, those who were crowned kings had a set of officials in the kingdom, and the important officials were Fu and Xiang, who assisted the king's personal actions; Xiang, in charge of civil affairs in the kingdom, its functions and powers are equivalent to the county Taishou, all appointed by the imperial court, Bao Xin was appointed as the Jibei Minister, which is equivalent to the Jibei County Taishou.

Cao Cao and Bao Xin explained their intentions.

Jin Liang said with a wry smile: "I have just arrived in Chenliu under my command, and the people are sleepy and the horses are lacking, and I have to rest for a few 'days' before I can send troops, not to mention the lack of grain and grass in our army, and the grain and grass in the rear are slow to be received. ”

The first reason that Jin Liang said is indeed the truth, and the second reason is that it means something.

Cao Cao realized that Jin Liang had no contact with Bao Xinsu, so why should Jin Liang help, so he smiled and said: "Grain and grass are a problem for Xianting, but not for Yuncheng, Yuncheng has transported five hundred carts of grain and grass from Jibei, and it has not yet been handed over to Yuan Shu, so one hundred carts of grain and grass can be allocated to Xianting." ”

Bao Xin said with a smile: "General, I am willing to allocate 100 carts of grain to the Central Army, and I also ask the general to help with volunteers." ”

A big cart barely has a hundred stone yellow rice, and a hundred carts barely have 10,000 stones, which can only feed Jin Liang's 40,000 horses for ten days, Jin Liang doesn't care about it, he has something else to ask for.

Jin Liang arched his hand and smiled: "Prime Minister Bao, in addition to grain and grass, Jin has one more thing to ask for. ”

Bao Xin hurriedly smiled and asked, "I don't know what can make the general embarrassed?" ”

Jin Liang said with a smile: "Just now I came out of the alliance leader's account, passed by Bao Guoxiang's camp, and saw a person, called Yu Ban, who seems to be a general, there is a lack of good generals in my central army, I have the heart to recruit him into my central army, I don't know if Bao Guoxiang is reluctant to part with love?" ”

Bao Xinli thought for a while: "Oh, general, what you said about Yu Ban is that Taishan Juping man Yu Wenze, in the first year of Zhongping, I recruited troops to fight against the Yellow Turban Thieves, Yu Ban led some people to follow me at that time, and now he is the Dubo in our army." Uploaded by netizens == He is silent all day long, not good at 'socializing' swimming, I really don't see what kind of talent he has, if you want to promote him, general, I will send someone to call him! ”

Dubo, about the equivalent of a centurion, is equivalent to the captain under Jin Liang, and only brings about a hundred people under his command, which can be seen that he is forbidden under Bao Xin and is not reused.

Jin Liang thanked him: "I thanked Bao Guoxiang for his love." ”

Not long after, Yu Ban came, nearly thirty years old, medium in stature, and ordinary appearance, which can be described as not amazing, but when he heard Bao Xin's intentions, his eyes were also very calm, and he accepted the fate of being given to the new lord Jin Liang by the old lord Bao Xin very calmly. History is documented:

"Yu Ban (?) -221), a native of Taishan Juping (now Tai'annan, Shandong). Military general of Wei during the Three Kingdoms period. Originally a general of Bao Xin, and later a subordinate of Cao Cao, he once crusaded against the Qingzhou soldiers who did not abide by military discipline during Zhang Xiu's rebellion, and at the same time held the camp to meet the enemy, so Cao Cao praised him as comparable to the ancient famous generals.

In the fourth year of Zhongping (184), Yu Ban was recruited by Bao Xin to crusade against the Yellow Turban Army.

In the third year of the first peace (192), Bao Xin welcomed Cao Cao to lead the Yanzhou pastor, and Yu Ban and his party were named Dubo, and belonged to the general Wang Lang. Wang Lang was different, and recommended to Cao Cao that he could be appointed as a general. Cao Cao summoned Yu Ban to worship the army Sima.

In the fourth year of Chuping (193), Cao Cao asked him to lead his troops to Xuzhou, attack Guangqi, and after conquering Guangwei, he appointed him as the commander of Chen Du.

In the first year of Xingping (194), he accompanied Cao Cao to Puyang to crusade against LΓΌ Bu, and Yu Ban alone led his troops to break through LΓΌ Bu's two camps in the south of the city, and led his troops to defeat Gao Ya in Xuchang. Cao Cao's retinue attacked Shouzhang, Dingtao, and Lihu, surrounded Zhang Chao in Yongqiu, and occupied four cities. He also followed Cao Cao to defeat Liu Pi, Huang Shao and other troops of the Yellow Turban Army, and set up in Banliang. Huang Shao and others attacked Cao Cao's camp at night, met the subordinates of the forbidden leader, defeated the Yellow Turban Army, beheaded Huang Shao and others, and forced all the Yellow Turban Army to surrender.

In the same year, from the Yuan Shu Department, Qiao Rui and Zhang Xun were equal to Ruoxian, and their four generals were beheaded.

In the second year of Jian'an (197), Yu Ban followed Cao Cao to Wan, and Zhang Xiu surrendered. Immediately Zhang Xiu rebelled, Cao Cao's camp was suddenly attacked by Zhang Xiu's army, and it was too late to deal with it, so they retreated, which was very chaotic. Only the subordinates who are forbidden to restrain themselves and fight and retreat. Although some of the soldiers died in battle, Yu Ban did not allow them to disperse. Before returning to the base camp of the Cao army, more than a dozen disheveled wounded soldiers were found on the forbidden road. The Qingzhou soldiers were originally yellow turban thieves, and later surrendered to Cao Cao, still called Qingzhou soldiers, Cao Cao was very tolerant of them, so he was often presumptuous and took the opportunity to rob. As soon as Yu Ban heard this, he pursued these Qingzhou soldiers who were also his own. Some Qingzhou soldiers were defeated and fled back to Cao Ying to make a small report, falsely accusing Yu Ban of rebellion. Someone advised Yu Ban to report to Cao Cao first, but Yu Ban said: "Now that the enemy is chasing behind, I will resist the enemy first, as for Cao Gong, he is a wise person, and it is the rumors that stop at the wise, what are you afraid of?" Therefore, Yu Ban first built a ditch to prevent the enemy from attacking, and then he was informed and explained to Cao Cao. Cao Cao listened to it and thought that Yu Ban's approach was very right, and said in public: "At that time, the enemy came to attack, and it was quite chaotic, and Yu Ban was able to rectify the army in the chaos, pursue the evil deeds of looting, and set up camp and build a fortress to hold on, which is really an example of a good general." So he recorded the work before and after the ban and was named the Marquis of Yishou Pavilion.

In the third year of Jian'an (198 years), he regained from Cao Cao's broken Zhang embroidery in Sui, and captured Lu Bu in Xiapi.

In the fourth year of Jian'an (199), he attacked with Shi Lian, Cao Ren, and Le to break the stubbornness of the shooting dog and cut it.

In the fifth year of Jian'an (200 years), Liu Bei rebelled in Xuzhou, and Cao Cao went east. Yuan Shao attacked the ban, held on to the ban, Yuan Shao could not take it, and then took the initiative to attack, attacked the flank camp of the Yuan army, attacked Ji County from Yanjin to the southwest along the Yellow River, and rode five thousand to cross the river with Le Jin and others to capture Huojia County, burning more than 30 tuns in total, beheading thousands of people, and recruiting more than 20 people such as He Mao and Wang Mo. Later, Cao Cao sent Yu Ban to lead his troops into Yuanwu alone, attacked Yuan Shao's camp in Du Shijin, and broke it. moved to the general, and then returned to the official crossing. Cao Cao and Yuan Shao joined the camp, and the mountains were opposite. Yuan Shao ordered his soldiers to shoot arrows at Cao Cao's camp, and many of Cao Cao's soldiers were killed and wounded, and the soldiers were afraid. Yu Ban guarded the earth and mountain, and fought hard to boost morale. After the Battle of Guandu, he moved to the general.

In the seventh year of Jian'an (202), Liu Biao sent Liu Bei's Northern Expedition to attack Xudu, which reached Yexian County, which was approaching Xuchang, Cao Cao mobilized the generals Xiahoudun, Yu Ban, and Li Dian to resist Liu Bei, and Liu Bei retreated the front to Bowang to confront Cao's army. One morning the camp was burned and retreated, Xiahoudun led the troops to pursue Liu Bei, Li Dian said: "The enemy retreated for no reason, suspecting that there must be an ambush." The road to the south is narrow and dense, and it is impossible to pursue. Xiahoudun did not accept his opinion, and led his troops to pursue with Yu Ban, while Li Dian stayed behind. Xiahoudun and Yu Ban really fell into Liu Bei's ambush, when the battle situation was very critical, Li Dian, who had long been expected, arrived with troops in time, Liu Bei saw that Li Dian's rescue troops had arrived, and felt that it was useless to attack, so he was forced to retreat, and Cao's army successfully defended Xudu.

In the eleventh year of Jian'an (206), Chang Feng rebelled again after surrendering to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao was sent to Ban to conquer. Yu Ban hurriedly attacked Chang Xuan, and Chang Feng and Yu Ban were old friends, so they surrendered to Yu Ban. All the generals thought that Chang Feng had surrendered, and they should let Cao Cao deal with it, so Yu Ban said: "Don't you know Cao Gong's order!" Whoever surrenders after being surrounded by a great army cannot be pardoned for his sins. Obeying and enforcing laws and regulations is the integrity of serving the king. Although Chang Feng is my old friend, how can I lose my temper because of this! "Say goodbye to Chang Feng from the future, and cut it with tears. At that time, Cao Cao's army was in Chunyu, and when he heard it, he sighed: "Chang Feng did not surrender to me, but defected to Yu Ban, it is fate!" "More important than the ban, after the East China Sea was pacified, Cao Cao on the Han Emperor to show the merit to the ban, Lejin, and Zhang Liao, Yu Ban therefore worshiped as the general of Huwei.

In the fourteenth year of Jian'an (209), Yu Ban attacked Meicheng with Zang Ba and others, and Zhang Liao, Zhang He and others discussed Chen Lan. When the ban arrived, Mei Cheng raised more than 3,000 people to surrender. Soon rebelled, and his subordinates all defected to Chen Lan. Zhang Liao and others held on to Chen Lan, the military rations were insufficient, and they were connected before and after the ban on the transportation of grain and grass, and Zhang Liao was reinforced, so he killed Chen Lan and Mei Cheng. In addition, 200 households were added to the ban, and the total number of households was 1,200.

At this time, Yu Ban and Zhang Liao, Le Jin, Zhang He, and Xu Huang were all famous generals, and Cao Cao was either used as a marching forward or a rear rejection every time Cao Cao conquered; And in the strict order of the forbidden army, the thieves and property are obtained, and there is no private entry, so the reward is extremely heavy. Cao Cao once hated Zhu Ling and wanted to seize his military power. Because Cao Cao was so powerful in the ban, he sent dozens of horsemen and orders to Zhu Ling's camp to seize his army, but Zhu Ling and his subordinates did not dare to move. Cao Cao asked Zhu Ling to be forbidden to his subordinates, and everyone was shocked, and he was afraid of it.

In the twenty-first year of Jian'an (216), Yu Banqian was the general of Zuo, and he was divided into 500 households, and he was a son of the marquis.

In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an (219), Guan Yu attacked Fancheng, and Yu Ban rescued Cao Ren with Pang De. Yu Ban and the generals climbed the high slope to look at the water, there was no place to avoid, Guan Yu attacked Yu Ban and others by boat, Yu Ban immediately surrendered, and was imprisoned in Jiangling, Jingzhou.

Pang De scolded Guan Yu and would rather die than surrender, Pang De said to Guan Yu: "Shaft, what is surrender!" The king of Wei led a million soldiers to invigorate the world. Your Liu Bei is just a mediocre talent, how can he be against the King of Wei! I'd rather be a ghost of the country than a thief! "Kill Guan Yu one by one. After Cao Cao learned about it, he lamented for a long time and said: "Yu Ban has followed me for thirty years, how can he face danger, but he is not as good as Pang De!" ”

After Jiangling, Yu Ban was released from Jingzhou and went to Eastern Wu, where he once rode a horse with Sun Quan. Yu Pan was very dissatisfied when he saw the two side by side, and scolded Yu Ban for being just a prisoner and not qualified to be side by side with Sun Quan; He even held a horsewhip to lash out at the ban, and Sun Quan immediately stopped drinking. Later, Sun Quan feasted with the ministers on the building boat, and Yu Ban was sad and wept when he heard the music, and Yu Fu pointed out that Yu Ban was pretending to be pitiful.

Although Yu Ban was hated by him, he still admired his loyalty.

Cao Pi ascended the throne, and Sun Quan became a minister. In the second year of the early Huang dynasty (221), Sun Quan was sent back to Wei State. After Yu Ban returned to Wei, he was ridiculed by others. At that time, Yu Ban's beard and hair were snow-white, and his face was emaciated. Cao Pi ostensibly comforted Ban and appointed him as General An Yuan.

When it was forbidden to visit Cao Cao's mausoleum, Cao Pi ordered someone to draw Guan Yu Zhanke, Pang De's anger, and Yu Ban's surrender. 》

Cao Cao didn't speak, kept looking at Yu Ban with his eyes, and when Jin Liang agreed to send troops, Bao Xin and Cao Cao left Jin Liang's camp, Cao Cao sighed along the way: "Yuncheng, you have lost a general!" ”

Bao Xin disagreed: "Yu Ban has been under my command for more than five years, and he has not been conspicuous, if he is really a general, he should have stood out a long time ago!" I think he is at best an ordinary general who can only command a few hundred men, and he can't be entrusted with big tasks! ”

Cao Cao saw that Bao Xin was so knowledgeable, so he didn't say much.

Cao Cao didn't know that Bao Xin lost the ban, in fact, he was losing the ban.

Bao Xin's current status is the same as Cao Cao, but Bao Xin admires Cao Cao very much, at this time Yuan Shao's prestige is very high, and all the princes in the world respect him, only Bao Xin said to Cao Cao that only he Cao Cao can lead the world to set things right. A few years later, it was Bao Xin and Yanzhou official Wan Qian and others who arrived in Dongjun to welcome Cao Cao as the pastor of Yanzhou, and then Bao Xin was killed in the crusade against the Yellow Turban, and his power was all attributed to Cao Cao, along with Yu Ban. At that time, Yu Ban was still Dubo, under Wang Lang's account. Wang Lang saw that he was talented out of forbiddenness, and recommended to Cao Cao that he could be appointed as a general, and Cao Cao summoned Yu Ban to worship the army Sima.

Jin Liang knew this history, so he took the first step and took advantage of Bao Xin's request for himself, and took the opportunity to ask for the ban. Now counted, the five good generals in Cao Cao's history, in addition to Le Jin, who is now under Cao Cao's account, the other four generals Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Zhang Jaw, and Yu Ban are all under Jin Liang's account.

However, Cao Cao has Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Le Jin, Xiahou Shang, Cao Xiu and other generals, Li Dian, Xu Chu, Jin Qian all refused Jin Liang's expedition, it seems that it is very likely to take refuge in Cao Cao in the future, it seems that Cao Cao's account is not lacking in generals, Jin Liang took away from him is only a small part of his original "fierce generals like clouds and strategists like rain", if Cao Cao gets a chance, he can turn into a dragon when he encounters a storm.

Jin Liang's eyes showed a cold light, in this battle, can he use Xu Rong's knife to kill Cao Cao unknowingly? After all, the Chiyou clan didn't make much movement now, and Jin Liang felt the calm before the storm now. If you take advantage of this opportunity to join Huaxia, then Jin Liang may be able to achieve the immortal position of the human emperor.

Yu Ban stood in the tent, seeing that Jin Liang had been pondering, Yu Ban's 'sex' was resolute and calm, holding his breath and concentrating, standing there quietly.

Jin Liang couldn't think of how to successfully borrow a knife to kill people, so he could only wait until he got to the battlefield and then improvise.

Jin Liang woke up from his contemplation, and saw that Yu Ban in front of him was still standing there respectfully, his expression was still so calm and calm, and he couldn't help nodding secretly, Yu Ban really lived up to his reputation, calm and composed, which is the inevitable quality of a general who is in charge.
