Chapter 45: The Battle of the Yin Tomb (Part II)
At this juncture, there will be so-called 'old friends' to ask for a meeting, with this doubt, Guo Jia returned to the military tent and met the visitors.
The guests were dressed in brown clothes, hats, straw sandals, and had a short blade pinned to their waists. The whole person looks like a country light man.
Zhang Fei pointed to the guest's face a little rudely, and said to Guo Jia: "Joining the army, this is the person." ”
The dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of whom was different.
Guan Yu treats soldiers generously and lovingly, but he is very arrogant to scholars and officials; Zhang Fei, on the contrary, treated scholars and officials with great respect, but was quite strict with soldiers. This point is not only known to his immediate boss Li Quan, but also to almost the entire generals and colonels of Xu Chu's camp.
After Guo Jia looked at the guest's attire, he roughly swept his whole body, and then signaled Zhang Fei not to be too rude, and said to the guest: "The guest is far away, please be sorry for the inconsiderate." ”
ordered someone to serve the tea soup, and then said solemnly: "In Xiayang Zhai Guo Fengxiao, dare to ask who is the master of the family?" ”
The guest was about thirty years old, and when he saw that Guo Jia treated him with the courtesy of entertaining the children of the scholar clan, he was immediately surprised: "Step ......."
Guo Jia said with a smile: "Although you are brown and straw sandals, the pampering and pampering atmosphere on your body is by no means easy to hide. ”
The guest suddenly said: "Good eyesight." Stretching out two palms that had not been farmed, he saluted: "Lu Dai, a native of Xiaguangling County, has seen Captain Guo." ”
Guo Jia had never heard of Lu Dai's name, and after the guest and host sat down, he probed a few words, this Lu Dai had no intention of concealing it, and revealed his family background and discernment, but it turned out to be the Hailing family of Guangling County, and the family had been officials in Guangling for generations, so Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao was his master.
After casually looking up for a long time, Guo Jia asked straight to the point: "Why did you come this time?" ”
Lu Dai replied: "Entrusted by people, loyal to people." ”
"Who's trusting it?"
"It's Xia Cai Zhoutai, Shouchun and Jiang Qin, two handsome people, who came down to bring a message to the captain."
Guo Jia nodded, looked at the tent door with deep eyes, and said: "Zhou, Jiang Erjun and Xu Hou do not know each other, they have admired each other for a long time, and they have been discussing Dong Bi, Xu Hou returned to Lujiang, and immediately sent someone to find Zhou and Jiang Erjun, but when he learned that Erjun drove to Guangling County, he had to give up, but he originally met Lu Jun in Guangling. ”
Lu Dai sighed, it was inconvenient to elaborate on the reasons at this time, and only said: "Since Dong Zhuo's chaotic dynasty, Guangling County, which has been peaceful for a long time, has not been spared. ”
Guo Jia shook his head.
Lu Dai sighed heavily, and said: "This Zhenrong is a fellow villager of Tao Xuzhou, a native of Danyang, and is very valued by Tao Xuzhou. About the time of the discussion of Dong, Tao Xuzhou expressed that he was the prime minister of Xiapi, and sat down to cut off the grain and grass military aircraft in Xiapi, Guangling, and Pengcheng. After Zhenrong took office, he levied and extorted violently, so that the people were miserable......"
Guo Jia smiled bitterly: "Lu Jun, there may be a war tomorrow, what I said at the foot, one is out of place, and the other should not be said with the next, my lord is now in Hefei, and you can take me to see the letter." ”
Lu Dai smiled and said, "The captain is reasonable. To get back to the point, this time I came down, first, I wanted to meet with Xu Hou, and second, I just presented two counties to the captain. ”
Dedicated to two counties?
Guo Jia straightened his waist and asked, "What do you mean by stepping down?" ”
"After hearing that Lujiang and the state capital were at war, Zhou and Jiang Erjun immediately returned to Jiujiang by boat with their subordinates, and the two of them were deeply rooted in Jiujiang, so they were willing to dedicate the two counties of Dangtu and Yicheng to Xu Hou."
Guo Jia was secretly happy, and said quietly on his face: "If this is the case, Xu Hou will definitely be happy." It's a pity that I can't take a break to meet with Zhou and Jiang Erjun...... Lu Jun, what do you think of this? Ordered someone to invite Li Quan, told him about the matter, and then continued to say to Lu Dai: "Captain Li is Xu Hou's right-hand man, and he can go with Lu Jun." ”
Lu Dai had no objection and said, "That's fine." ”
Please wait at the gate of Lu Dai for a while, Guo Jia instructed Li Quan, "Xiaocheng, I see that Lu Dai's words and expressions do not seem to be fake, what he said should be the truth, are you willing to go with him." ”
Li Cheng said bitterly: "It's just that the war is about to start tomorrow......"
"Tomorrow's war is with me, Le Wenqian, and Zhang Yide, so don't worry. Xiaocheng, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin are Jiujiang giants, the boats are excellent, and the water is good at fighting, such as Dengyongzhi, this credit is not less than taking the Yin Tomb. ”
Li Cheng was told by Guo Jia, smiled honestly, and thought about it, is it just as Guo Jia said? So he took this order and went out of the tent and set off with Lu Dai at night.
Li Quan was born in a big family in Shanyang County, and he has been dealing with heroes since he was a child, and he is now the only cavalry captain in Xu Chu's army, and his status is very high, so it is appropriate to send him to see Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin.
Because of this change, Guo Jia ordered people to invite Le Jin and those above the rank of marquis in the army to the account, and reassigned the combat mission. To be precise, the officers at all levels of the cavalry were adjusted, with Zhang Fei as the main body, supplemented by Li Quan's Shanyang cronies, to fill the vacancy in Li Quan's absence.
This time, there are three captains in the team, Guo Jia, Le Jin, and Li Quan, so even if Li Cheng is not there temporarily, there will be no suspicion of 'changing generals in battle', and the cavalry sergeants have always been convinced of Zhang Fei's martial arts, and there has been no turmoil in the army's heart.
......
......
The next day, Liu Guang led the army to arrive, he climbed high and overlooked Guo Jia's military camp, and saw that the west of the camp was a hilly depression, and there were many fortifications deployed at the camp gate. Give me the order and rest in place. ”
Then he went to give the order.
A person rode a horse to Liu Guang's side, frowned, and said: "Brother Liu, Ce still can't understand why Liu Fujun insisted on fighting a decisive battle with the Lujiang soldiers in the field...... Didn't he know that the Lujiang soldiers had fought with Liang and the elite for many days under the Dagu Pass? ”
Liu Guang glanced at Sun Ce and said helplessly: "My clan brother is not an unwise person, how can he not know about this section?" However, most of the lieutenant generals and colonels in the army are from the Yinling clan, and when they saw that their hometown was in trouble, they repeatedly begged me to return to the army. Even if I don't, morale won't be available. ”
Sun Ce laughed twice and said, "The conspiracy is very popular, and the strategy doesn't understand much. After a pause, he looked back at the convoy behind him and said, "This time, I took my family and children out of the city for refuge, and I can't help Brother Liu anymore." ”
Liu Guang nodded, followed Sun Ce to meet his mother, and then watched the other party's convoy embark on the way back to Fuchun's hometown. With Lu Fan, Sun He and a group of guests accompanying him, Liu Guang was not very worried about the safety of Sun Ce and his party.
What he was worried about was whether the inconspicuous camp in front of him could be successfully captured.
After resting until the afternoon, Liu Guang climbed high again and looked into the distance, and finally saw the smoke billowing in the distance in the east, while ordering the three armies to enter a state of readiness, on the other hand, in order to prevent the enemy's tricks, until he could see that it was indeed the Yinling County soldiers sent by Liu Miao, he came down from the heights, rode a horse and cruised in the formation, and said loudly: "Beat the drum, the front army listens to the order, attack the enemy camp!" ”
Two thousand Shouchun soldiers were sent into an arrow-shaped array, which was an undefended array of fierce attacks, and after hearing the order, the three hundred dead soldiers of the front army attacked Guo Jia's military camp in a neat manner.
