Chapter 294: Snowball
"Tsk, this house...... It's all people's fat and people's ointment. ”
Yuan Xi visited the mansion of the high-ranking cadres and couldn't help but sigh. This Gao Gan really intends to act as a soil emperor, and even his own residence is so beautifully built.
Yuan Shangtian Feng and Cao Pi all came in one by one and squeezed into a wide room. The eaves outside the house are carved jade, and the flowing wood inside the house is splendid, which is comparable to the imperial palace.
Gao Gan sat cramped to the side and said embarrassedly: "This ...... This...... It was the sleeping palace where the Son of Heaven went out, and I renovated it. ”
He was followed by two strong soldiers of the People's Army, their hands tied behind their backs, and at this time, the Yuan brothers did not miss him a little bit of kinship.
Yuan Shang couldn't bear to say anything, even if it was the palace where the emperor was on patrol, it would cost a lot to renovate it. The land in this place is barren, and it has to be so luxurious, and this high-ranking cadre really regards this place as his own place.
Even Cao Pi, who was a hostage, was secretly surprised, after the Han Emperor was exiled to Xudu, Cao Cao hurriedly built a large number of buildings, but it was not so luxurious.
Yuan Xi said: "It seems that there is still one more article in the indictment read out before." ”
"What?"
"Embezzlement of state-owned assets."
Gao Gan shouted: "I have already done what you said, do you want to punish me?" ”
After he was restrained by Yuan Xi, he opened the city gate, persuaded his subordinates to surrender, handed over the sigils, and wrote letters to the cities and counties around Jinyang to inform them of the news of the change of state and banner, and then cooperated with Yuan Xi to stabilize the mood of his officials. In short, in order to save his life, Gao Gan also gave up his position.
Yuan Xi said: "Don't worry, everyone is cousins, and I won't embarrass you." However, the matter of privately occupying the emperor's bedroom, wait for me to start playing the Han Emperor who is far away in Xudu, if he has no opinion, it is best. ”
"You ......" Gao Gan suddenly sweated on his forehead. This is to block his own back road, as soon as his accusation spreads, Cao Cao will call him in the future, and he will not be able to surrender. Looking at Yuan Xi's smile and groaning, the fire in Gao Gan's chest was completely extinguished.
Tian Feng said beside him: "Second son, although Jinyang has been taken now, the army is still very weak. It's okay to hold on, but it's impossible to counterattack and take Yecheng. ”
He had not agreed to venture into the annexation of states before, because it was easy to disperse his forces, and even if a second battlefield was opened, his troops would still be insufficient. In this way, once Cao Cao comes to his senses, he will inevitably be broken by each other.
However, Yuan Xi was not so worried, and said, "Don't worry, Bing, we will have it." And it's a strong army. ”
Tian Feng asked, "Where did the soldiers come from?" ”
Yuan Xi said: "Black Mountain Army." ”
Zhang Yan's Montenegrin Army is an out-and-out strong soldier in the world. From the Yellow Turban, several rebel armies that ravaged Jizhou and Bingzhou were encircled and suppressed and converged in the mountainous areas around the eldest son, and later continued to fire and integrate, forming the Montenegrin Army with Zhang Yan as the core. Among them, Zhang Yanyan's Montenegrin Iron Cavalry really has the momentum of ten thousand people, when Lu Bu came to Hebei as a guest general, he also fought with the Montenegrin Army for more than a month, and did not achieve any advantage. Then Zhang Yan was compressed in the mountains by Yuan Shao, out of breath, but did not disperse, but was canonized by the Han family.
Zhang Yan is the abbreviation of Zhang Feiyan, and his original name is no longer known, only that he walked like a flying swallow in the mountains, so he got his name. Many Yellow Turban thieves are called this in their capitals, such as Zhang Baiqi, who was named after riding a white horse, and Li squinted, because his eyes were crooked. Numerous.
Since Cao Cao pressed Hebei, this Zhang Yan immediately quieted down, and secretly had contact with Cao Cao. However, when Cao Cao did not establish a victory, he did not make a clear statement. As for what agreement he reached with Cao Cao, no one can guess.
"We must take down the Black Mountain Army before Cao Cao reacts!" Yuan Xi said.
Under the leadership of Yuan Xi, the 500 soldiers of the people's army crossed the mountains and began a long journey.
In the middle of summer, the climate in the mountains and forests is pleasant, and the trees above are dense, and the hot sun does not penetrate through. Everyone had been on the road for most of the day, and at this time, they were covered in sweat and rested for a while by a small stream.
Yuan Xi took a sheepskin and scribbled on it. Zhao Yun and Gao Shun walked over and asked, "Second son, just five hundred of us to pick off the entire Black Mountain Army?" ”
Yuan Xi said: "Yes, there are not enough people, so I can only work hard for you." ”
Zhao Yundao: "I heard that the Montenegrin army can have 50,000 people in bits and pieces, excluding the old, weak, sick and disabled, even if they are young and strong and capable of fighting, there are 10,000 at least." ”
Yuan Xi said: "Yes, if you can take these people for yourself, why worry about Yecheng." When the time comes, Cao Cao will still be in a dream when he goes out of Huguan and takes Yecheng. ”
Zhao Yun smiled bitterly: "But we only have five hundred people, how can we keep fifty thousand people for ourselves?" They are not the Jinyang Army, willing to obey our orders? ”
Yuan Xi spread the sheepskin in front of him on the ground, pointed to the names of the people on it with a branch, and said: "Look, Zhang Yan, Lei Gong, Zhang Baiqi, Sun Qing, Guo Daxian, these people are distributed in the area of Shangdang Changshan in Montenegro, and the number of people in each department is between 2,000 and 10,000, plus the family members and the robbed population, the total number may be more than 100,000. Although these people are called the Black Mountain Army, they actually act separately in peacetime, but Zhang Yanbu is the most famous, and he first asked the Han Emperor for a recruitment, which became the leader of the Black Mountain Army. In fact, these people are still in the habit of bandits, and they don't buy anyone's accounts from each other. ”
Gao Shun said: "So, we have to break each one?" ”
Yuan Xi said: "It's not enough to break each other, we have to let them be suspicious of each other, attack each other, and help us accelerate integration." Otherwise, when we absorbed these people, Cao Cao would have found out a long time ago. ”
Zhao Yun said: "This ...... How can it be? ”
Yuan Xi said: "Indeed, it's difficult. The main thing is that there is still too little news about the Montenegrin Army on our side to judge. Now I just know that since Zhang Yan was recruited by the imperial court, the other people below are very dissatisfied with him, but Zhang Yan has the largest number of people here, and there are Black Mountain Iron Cavalry to suppress the formation, so they don't dare to provoke him. We have to find the point where they are in the league and then snowball bigger and bigger, and finally eat the entire Montenegrin army. ”
Regarding this idea, it was once criticized by Tian Feng. It's nothing more than uncertainties, it's really utopian and other comments. However, at this moment of life and death, every minute and every second is very precious, Yuan Xi still resolutely took five hundred warriors on the road.
"That's right." Yuan Xi looked up at Zhao Yun and Gao Shun, and said: "After subduing the Black Mountain Army immediately, we will raid Yecheng, if we take it down, we will be able to meet Diao Chan again at that time, when will the duel between the two of you take place?" ”
"Uh......" Zhao Yun was speechless, at this time, he still remembered these little things? It seems that the eight characters haven't been skimmed yet, but now it's too fast to say that you want to capture Yecheng?
Unexpectedly, Gao Shun immediately said: "I'm ready." Then he looked at Zhao Yun.
Yuan Xi clapped his hands and said: "That's great, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, I'll be the referee, just compare here." ”...
