Chapter 179: Design Surprise Attack
The large army withdrew from Yuyuan Pass, entered Guanzhong, and was stationed in Wushi County to complete the handover with the Flying Bear Army led by Li Dao.
Guo Yi did not stay long in Gushi County, and set off for Hanoi on the same day. Outside the city of Luoyang, Dong Zhuo led the army to wait, he sat on the treasure cover car, showing off his might, waiting for Guo Yi to kneel and worship.
"Wechen has seen Xiangguo." Guo Yi stepped forward alone, trotted all the way to Dong Zhuo's car, fell to the ground and bowed, "Xiangguo Chitose." ”
"Oh?!" When Dong Zhuo heard this, he laughed heartily, and said left and right: "Listen to it, Taishou is ten million times more knowledgeable than Er, and you will know the level with this opening." ”
Everyone also echoed and shouted Chitose.
Yang Biao looked at Guo Yilai at this time, he hadn't seen him for more than a year, he had matured a lot, maybe he had been trapped for a long time, his beard was a little messy, and he left a trace of time on his youthful face. Looking at his eyes again, they are still sharp and smart, his ambition is not dead, and his ambition is undiminished.
"If you go to Hanoi too much, the road is dangerous, but you have to take care. As for the grain and grass, the Taishou just rest assured, the old man will do his best. ”
"Then thank you Sangkook. Without further ado, I will set out for Hanoi, hoping to be stationed in Binh County for about ten days, and ask for Xiang Guo's permission. ”
"Okay." Dong Zhuo agreed.
Guo Yi no longer stayed, led the army to cross the water, crossed the Beibi Mountain, and stationed in Pingxian, in front of him was the Xiaopingjin Pass, and the sound of the waves of the Yellow River was heard in his ears.
"Camp here to rest. Herald, feast. "At the gate, there was a big feast, and it was all wine and meat. Looking at the surging Yellow River, Guo Yi raised his wine glass and toasted the whole army.
He said loudly: "You don't see the water of the Yellow River coming up from the sky, rushing to the sea and never returning." You don't see the high hall mirror sad white hair, like green silk twilight into snow, life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon, I am born to be useful, the daughter is scattered and come back, cook sheep and slaughter cattle and for fun, will have to drink three hundred cups! ”
"Good!" The morale of the whole army was high, and they drank heartily.
Hanoi County Guard, Huai County Hall, Wang Kuang received the report. Guo Yi was stationed in Pingxian County, and his troops were in Xiaopingjin Pass, but he did not have the slightest intention of attacking, just holding a feast every day, drinking and having fun. Every time, Guo Yi took the lead in toasting and chanting poems.
"I am born to be useful, and my daughter will come back when I am gone. Good ambition! What a spirit! Wang Kuang sighed sincerely, he and Guo Yisu had never met, but looking at his poems, it can be seen that this person is very good, and he is definitely not a thing in the pool.
"My lord, how should we deal with it?"
Wang Kuang thought for a while and said with a smile: "Guo Zihong and Dong Thief have always been at odds, and now it is just an expedient measure. Presumably, they will not send troops to attack us. Just let him stay, with him in his throat, it will be much easier for us to crusade against Dong Thief. ”
"Lord, the princes have arrived in Sujuju, and the alliance will be held in three days, how many people will our army lead to go?"
Wang Kuang said proudly: "This time the princes will be in the alliance, and there will be a rank. My family is not as good as Yuan Shao and others, so I should rely on strength to speak. Led an army of 10,000 to participate in the alliance. ”
"If this is the case, then Hanoi's defense will be empty."
Wang Kuang waved his hand, and said nonchalantly: "Don't be afraid, there is a danger of the Yellow River." What's more, Guo Zihong and Dong Thief are wary of each other, so there is no need to worry. ”
In Hanoi, Ha Duong County, Wen County and other places, scouts walked the streets and alleys, sending the defense situation back to the camp of Guo Yijun in Ping County.
Wang Kuang transferred troops to participate in the alliance, and the men and horses in all counties were emptied, such a huge defense change, Guo Yi stood on the Xiaopingjin Pass and looked into the distance, and he could see clearly without even using a telescope.
The sappers hid in the checkpoints and the northern mountains, cutting down wood to build fortifications and building a bridge large enough for the cavalry to fly across the Yellow River.
Yan Hua's special team had already taken a boat down the river to prepare for the assassination in Shouhuai County, Hanoi County.
Guo Yi still held banquets every day, and asked Dong Zhuo for food, grass and military supplies every day, but everyone drank only boiled water, and there was not half a drop of wine in the bowl. The atmosphere of the banquet was still high, with drums and flags waving, and the momentum was huge.
Dong Zhuo couldn't stand it anymore, every time he finished delivering food, in less than two days, Guo Yi ate absolutely cleanly, and even directly used military food to make wine, not taking food seriously at all.
"Lord, which general will the princes send to the alliance in Sujube today?"
Dong Zhuo glanced at the generals present, although they all had eager expressions, but Guo Yi was staying in Pingxian, he didn't dare to rush into the army, for fear that Guo Yi would take advantage of the situation.
Li Ru's eyes were sharp, and he asked in a low voice: "The lord is worried about the side of the couch?" ”
Dong Zhuo nodded and was silent.
"It's easy to do." Li Ru smiled slightly, and said: "What Guo Yi said that day was only stationed for ten days, and today's deadline has arrived. The lord may issue an edict ordering him to send troops, and if he does not comply, he will be dealt with by military law. We can even take the opportunity to wipe it out in one fell swoop! ”
"Well...... Dong Zhuo thought for a moment and ordered, "Go and give the order." ”
Li Ru wrote the order and handed it over to the civil officials to deal with. He also offered a plan to Dong Zhuo, "My lord, this time the princes will meet and elect Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance." It intends to restore King Hongnong to the throne, why don't we get rid of King Hongnong and eliminate the thoughts of princes? ”
Dong Zhuo hesitated, it is one thing to abolish the establishment, and it is another thing to kill the king. The political impact of these two events is completely incomprehensible. If you abolish it, you can only say that you are a minister. Killing the king, that is a real rebellion!
Li Ru saw his concerns and admonished: "Lord, if the princes have rebelled today, you can't bear to retreat anymore. King Hongnong is just a prince, not the king of the lord, and there is no such thing as killing the king. ”
"Okay." Dong Zhuo slapped his thigh and agreed to this matter. got up and left the table and said: "I will enter the palace to see the emperor, Fengxian, you go with me." ”
Dong Zhuo's car was swaggering, and he was halfway there, when suddenly there was an urgent report, Guo Yijun, gone!
"What did you say?!" Dong Zhuo's face turned pale with fright, how could a large army disappear? Immediately ordered to turn around the convoy, Wang Pingxian rushed. When I arrived at Guo Yi's station, I saw that the camp was in good order, and all the belongings were packed in an orderly manner, but there was no half of a person in the station, and all the grain and grass had disappeared.
"Lord, on the other side!"
Dong Zhuo carried the hem of his skirt and dragged his fat body, trotting all the way up to the city tower, looking at the other side of the Yellow River. Sure enough, Wang Kuang's position was already full of Guo Yi's flags.
"Mrs. Guo uses soldiers, it's really heavenly!" Dong Zhuo muttered to himself, he didn't expect Guo Yi to slip away right under his nose. glanced back at Luoyang, and then at the surging Yellow River, and was afraid for no reason. Fortunately, Guo Yi chose to attack Hanoi, if he chose to capture Luoyang, he was afraid that he was still sleeping in Gentle Township at that time.
Li Ru hurriedly said: "Lord! Don't miss the opportunity, you need to immediately arrange a general to resist the alliance of princes! ”
Dong Zhuo immediately ordered, "Li Meng! You lead an army of 5,000 to guard the pass! ”
Lu Bu asked for orders on the side: "Father-in-law, please order me to send troops, only a thousand soldiers and horses are needed, and Yuan Shao's head can be offered." ”
Dong Zhuo was full of confidence, "How can you use a knife to kill chickens?" You are beside me, and these idle people are not enough. ”
Lu Bu said disappointedly: "Yes." ”
said that Guo Yi was here, and he took advantage of the night to cross the river last night. The scouts who had lurked on the opposite bank earlier led the way, and the soldiers who were guarding the gate opened the gate. Guo Yijun rushed in, and there were only 1,000 defenders in the city, and he was caught off guard.
In just one night, Guo Yi took four county towns including Heyang and Wenxian, and soldiers were on the banks of the Jishui River. Jishui is not a big river, and there are bridges, and the army passes through it quickly.
It was only then that the garrison of Hanoi finally reacted and hurriedly ordered the troops to be assembled. It's a pity that there weren't many defenders, and most of them were border guards close to Shangdang and Luoyang. Relying on the speed of transmission in ancient times, it is simply too late.
On the contrary, after receiving the news that Guo Yi had taken four counties overnight, Yewang, Chenggao, Zhou County and other five counties surrendered without any resistance, and directly surrendered.
Guo Yi's troops pointed directly at Huai County, where the Hanoi County Guard was located.
