Chapter 318: Zhong Xuan's Talent and Niu Fu's Suffering

Although Chang'an City is not as prosperous as Luoyang, the city wall is complete, and there is a lot of grain and grass. Theoretically speaking, as long as Lu Bu does not die and defends honestly, Chang'an City will be difficult to break. But in fact, Chang'an City did not hold on for a few days at all, and the only possibility was that there was a problem in the city. There are spies! Or rather, someone privately opened the city gate and surrendered! As soon as the city was broken, Lu Bu was forced to flee to Kanto.

"He Qian!" He Xian summoned the leader of his special operations team.

"Scatter all the team members and find a way to blend in with Lu Bu's forbidden army. Those who can't get in are staring at the west gate and north gate of Chang'an City. Ben will suspect that among the forbidden army, there are people who have fornicated with the Xiliang army! Find a way to dig up those rats! ”

"No!" He Qian didn't say a word, and took the order to go down and arrange.

The ghost of Chanei is one of the key points of this defensive battle, and recruiting young people and assisting in defending the city is the foundation of Chang'an City's ability to hold on. In the case of insufficient troops, prepare the equipment for defending the city, transport stones, sassal wood, and boil gold juice, and all these auxiliary tasks need to be handed over to the young and strong to do.

Chang'an ordered Chong Shao to be in charge of recruiting for the Nanyang Army was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with a personable demeanor and elegance.

"Xiaguan Zhong Xuan, added as the chief of Chang'an's subordinates, and came to serve under the general in the name of the public!"

Hearing the middle-aged man's self-registration number, He Xian, who was reading the battle report, immediately put down the bamboo slip in his hand and asked, "But Yingchuan celebrity Zhong Yuanchang also?" ”

Zhong Xuan was a little surprised, "The general has also heard that he is below?" ”

"I really didn't expect that under such circumstances, I could meet a cow from Cao Wei Group!" He Xian secretly sighed in his heart.

Zhong Xuan, the founder of the Chinese character Xiaokai, was respected by later generations as the "originator of regular script". Zhong Xuan had a profound influence on later generations of calligraphy, and later generations of calligraphers such as Wang Xizhi had devoted themselves to studying Zhong Xuan's calligraphy. Together with the Eastern Jin Dynasty calligrapher Wang Xizhi, he is called "King Zhong". Yu Shouwu of the Southern Dynasty listed Zhong Xuan's calligraphy as "above the top grade", and Tang Zhang Huaijun commented on his calligraphy as "divine product" in "Book Break".

In addition to calligraphy, Zhong Xuan's ability to govern was also a must during the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty. As a palace-level veteran of the Cao Wei Group, Zhong Xuan's greatest contribution was to stabilize the Guanzhong region of Chang'an, so that Cao Cao had no worries and could rest assured that he would fight a decisive battle with the Kwantung princes. was called "Xiao He" by Cao Cao. The official position of Taiwei, Taifu, was named a noble countryman, and after his death, he was able to enjoy Cao Cao's court temple.

"I've heard of the name for a long time!" After thinking about it, He Xian quickly stood up and saluted Zhong Xian and said, "My elder Shi Guo Jia often mentions Yuan Chang. said that Yuan Chang has the ability of Xiao He, and it is the talent of Wang Zuo. ”

is also a Yingchuan scholar, of course Zhong Xuan knows who Guo Jia is, and he also knows where Guo Jia is working now.

"Feng Xiaoxiao praised! Now, Fengxiao has assisted the general in ruling Jingzhou. If you can't be a small official in Chang'an, how dare you compare with it. Zhong Xuan said humbly.

"If Mr. Yuan Chang does not give up, General Wei's Mansion will always be vacant for Mr." He Xian did not hesitate to invite Zhong Xuan to join the house. Just kidding, this is a high-level logistics management talent. Can Cao Cao be compared to Xiao He, is it mortal?

Zhong Miao was stunned for a moment, and it was really difficult to accept He Xian's enthusiasm. Neither shirked nor agreed.

"General Xie's love! After the battle in Chang'an is over, Miao must carefully consider the general's invitation! ”

He Xian realized that his behavior was a little eager, and laughed to cover up the past. Then he asked Zhong Miao about the situation of the residential houses in the southeast side of Chang'an City, the storage of materials for defending the city, the storage of grain and grass, and the collection of young and strong. Zhong Xuan's answers were clear and methodical.

He Xian nodded frequently, extremely satisfied with Zhong Xuan's performance.

"The logistics support work of the Nanyang Army in Chang'an City is all up to Mr." After Zhong Xuan finished narrating, He Xian stood up and looked at Zhong Xuan deeply, which can be regarded as confirming Zhong Xuan's identity as the logistics manager. Zhong Xuan was originally photographed by Chang'an to assist in the work, but he didn't expect He Xian to throw his hand directly and throw all his power and responsibility to Zhong Xuan. This courage really made Zhong Xuan both emotional and helpless.

Ten days passed quickly. Dong Zhuo was killed, and Niu Fu, who was his son-in-law, was in his hometown in Longxi at the time, and after learning the news, he immediately led his elite starry night to Chang'an. Niu Fu became the first person in the Wulu Xiliang rebel army to arrive outside Chang'an City. Niu Fu was eager for revenge, and the starting point was good, but after arriving in Chang'an, he found a serious problem: he didn't have the equipment to attack the city!

As the former capital of the Han Dynasty, Chang'an City has a height of 12 meters and a thickness of nearly 10 meters, which is not at all solved by ordinary siege methods. If you want to siege the city, Niu Fu must use local materials to make siege equipment. Niu Fu, who was full of anger, could not vent it, so he could only order the sergeant to shout and curse under the city gate every day.

Unexpectedly, this scolding, there are really generals out of the city to fight!

In accordance with the strategy formulated by Wang Yun, Liu Biao and He Xian, Lu Bu sealed the Zhangcheng Gate and Yongmen in the west, and the Hengmen and Chucheng Gates in the north, leaving only the Zhicheng Gate and Luocheng Gate to defend it. Niu Fu came from the northwest and was stationed in the west of Chang'an City, slapping the sergeants every day to scold. A few days ago, the sergeant cursed the little emperor Liu Xie, Situ Wang Yun, Sikong Liu Biao, and Lu Bu endured it, as if he hadn't heard it. Today, according to the order, it's time to scold Lu Bu, and Lu Bu won't do it!

Lu Bu handed over the Luocheng Gate in the north to Song Xian and Wei Xu to guard, and the Zhicheng Gate in the west to Hou Cheng and Cao Xing to guard, and he himself led Cheng Lian and the three thousand feathers Lin Lang out of the city to face Niu Fu!

Niu Fu scolded for several days without moving, and was a little relaxed. Of the 20,000 Xiliang cavalry brought, only 5,000 were led out of the village today. Another 15,000 people were left in the camp by Niu Fu to make siege weapons.

Therefore, when Lu Bu appeared majestically in front of Niu Fujun, Niu Fu was blindfolded. He didn't expect that Lu Bu, as the commander of the enemy army, would be the first to fight! What is the rhythm of this? Doesn't that make sense?

"Niu Fu child! Lu Bu is here, but you are coming out? Don't you want to take on the general alone and avenge your father-in-law? What about people? ”

Niu Fu was still in a daze here, and Lu Buke rode the red rabbit and carried Fang Tian's halberd out of the battle!

The sergeant who was in charge of scolding also didn't have a long brain. If it is Wang Yun, Liu Biao and the like, Niu Fu can also accept it happily. You dare to shout that you want to single-handedly challenge the world's number one military general, Lu Fengxian? You're pushing Ben into the fire pit!

Niu Fu felt bitter in his heart, so bitter that he couldn't speak. Dong Zhuo was suddenly killed, which was indeed a bit of a big blow to him. Such a thick thigh, if you say no, it's gone. The great future that Niu Fu once longed for was also wiped out in an instant, how could Niu Fu not be excited? But excitement is excitement, and he is not so bad that he loses his mind. Singled out Lu Bu for such a thing, and gave him a hundred more dares, he would not have done it.
