Chapter 405: The Flooded Seventh Army (2)
At the end of the month, the weather suddenly changed. \\.qВ⑤、c0M\
In this era, there was no Gregorian lunar calendar, no Greenwich Mean Time, and no division of the months in later generations. People calculate according to the 24 solar terms, and most of them use the time of the lunar calendar as the time basis.
Therefore, at this time in May, it is already midsummer.
Earlier, it was still very hot. Overnight, the entire Jingzhao was suddenly cloudy, and dark clouds covered the sun.
The rain is dripping, the rain is pouring down......
Before you know it, the north has entered the rainy season, and the rain for days has caused the water of Deyi and the water to rise sharply.
Cao Cao stood on the tower of Xuanyuan Pass, looking at the rain, and couldn't help nodding secretly.
I think he has also been a soldier for many years, so he naturally knows that he is a general, and he is not proficient in astronomy and geography, and is good at taking advantage of the situation.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu was so young and so good.
Looking at his command, there are indeed not many generals who can be compared with Zhou Yu, no wonder Sun Ce can occupy Jiangdong with him. Cao Cao had met Zhou Yu when he was a child, and he was very impressed by Zhou Yu. It's a pity that due to the change of Yongqiu, Zhou Yi was relegated back to Lujiang. Cao Cao has never seen or heard of Zhou Yu since then.
Lu Su is higher than Zhou Yu in the overall situation, but in the details, he is not as good as Zhou Yu's changes.
There is really no one who is perfect!
Cao Cao glanced at Lu Su beside him and said softly, "Zijing, have you ever talked to Zhou Gongjin in private?" ”
Lu Su smiled bitterly when he heard this, "Gong Jin is eloquent, I just opened my mouth." He just choked all the words! ”
Inevitably feeling a little regretful, Cao Cao sighed, "How can such a character not be used by me?" What a pity! ”
Lu Su also sighed softly.
In fact, why didn't he want to persuade Zhou Yu? In Cao Cao's camp, it was basically divided into two groups. One is the Yingchuan clan group represented by Xun Yu and others, and the other is the official eunuch group headed by the Cao clan and the Xiahou clan. Lu Su, and many others, are between these two groups. Let's call it the Hanmen Group.
Lu Su was born in a big family, although he is not a poor family, of course, he is not from a family lord.
He now relied on Cao Cao's trust to gain a firm foothold. But this is still far from strong enough for him.
He needs to have a team that belongs to him.
If you can bring Zhou Yu over. With the means of the two of them, they can definitely stand out from the other two teams.
It's a pity, it's a pity......
Come to think of it. Lu Su couldn't help but shake his head gently.
"Zijing, everything has been arranged?"
Lu Su came to his senses from his contemplation, nodded hurriedly and said, "Don't worry, my lord, everything has been properly arranged according to the plan." Liu Bei hid in the new city, and Sun Quan led the army to ambush in the northern mountains. As long as Gongsun Kang digs the river embankment, Gongjin will attack. At that time, even if Xiahoulan escaped from Yanshi, she would not want to return to Chang'an alive. Unfortunately, it's not Kaoru. ”
The meaning of Lu Su's words. It's a bit of a pity.
It's just a Xiahoulan......
How good would it be if it was Dong Li who led the leader? After the success of the first battle, when the time comes, the army will go straight to Chang'an, and it will definitely be able to occupy Guanzhong.
Cao Cao smiled: "If it's Dong Manzi." I may not dare to use such a method. Zijing, you haven't fought with Xun Xiping. I don't know what he's capable of. At first glance, that guy looks like a reckless person, but in fact, he is very cautious. If he is in command this time, I should retreat to the three passes, hand over all Jingzhao to him, and then wear down his spirit.
Head-to-head confrontation, I'm afraid that few people can be his opponents! ”
The so-called three passes refer to Yique Pass, Dagu Pass and Xuanyuan Pass. These three passes can be called the barrier of Yuzhou.
When Lu Su heard this, he was a little unconvinced.
"Lord, I don't believe it, is Dong Yan really so powerful?"
Before the words fell, there was a sudden sound like the roar of an old cow in the far north, followed by the sound of the sky falling apart, standing on the Xuanyuan Pass, it could also be clearly felt.
Lu Su's face changed, "Yi Shui, it's broken!" ”
******
The surging flood is roaring and rushing.
Like a pack of hungry beasts, they rushed straight to the Yanshi.
Xia Houlan was in the Yanshi Marshal's Mansion, watching the sky. I faintly heard a roar, followed by someone shouting outside the Shuaifu: "Oh no, the river dam bursts, the river dam bursts, hurry up, it's coming soon......"
Xia Houlan couldn't help but tremble in her heart, and hurriedly ran out.
His handsome mansion is located on the high ground of Yanshi, and standing in the courtyard is nothing. But the entire Yanshi has been immersed in the ocean.
The flood washed down the walls of Yanshidi, and the water more than a person high rushed in, carrying a large amount of earth and rocks and broken bricks and tiles.
Stationed in the military camp outside Yanshi City, there is no trace of it.
The surviving soldiers shouted, calling for their companions to come to the rescue. Dead bodies float and sink with the turbid waves, and war horses neigh, struggling in the water.
In an instant, Xia Houlan suddenly realized!
Hit the plan, hit the plan......
"Quick rescue, quick rescue!"
Xiahoulan commanded his men and horses to begin salvaging the survivors, but the 100,000-strong army was almost completely wiped out.
After the flood, Yanshi became a water. If the horse runs two steps, it will fall into the mire and it will be difficult to move.
By daybreak, Xiahoulan gathered the remnants of the army.
There were only a few thousand people left, and a lonely, crumbling city.
At this time, Xiahoulan remembered Dong Li's letter to him: When he confronts Cao Cao, he must control the overall situation, and as long as there is a mistake, he will be captured by Cao Cao. If you occupy the sun, it's best not to attack easily.
It's a pity that Xia Houlan didn't listen to it at that time
It's impossible to listen.
After occupying Yang, Xia Houlan's confidence swelled to the point of no control. Don't say that Dong Li is his enemy, even if Dong Li is his friend, even if the person who said that is Zhao Yun whom he trusts, it is useless.
"General, what shall we do?"
Xia Houlan gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice: "Return to Yang immediately, as long as you can return to Yang." We still have a chance to live! ”
As a result, the Guanzhong Army, which numbered less than 10,000 people, was hastily organized.
Fortunately, it is only a day or two journey from Yanshi to Yang, and as long as you get to Yang, everything becomes easy to do.
Abandoned the horses, discarded the grain and grass......
At this time, Xiahou Lan no longer had the majesty he had when he set out on the expedition. embarrassed, panicked like a lost dog.
After leaving the Yan Division, Xiahou Lan led the soldiers and horses and marched rapidly in the direction of Yang.
At the time of the pathway. The soldiers and horses are in dire straits. Xia Houlan had no choice but to stop for a while and ordered someone to bury the pot and make rice.
"General, eat some!"
The soldiers brought the rough rations. But Xia Houlan still has an appetite there.
"Eat yourselves, until you are full. We're still on our way...... I only hope that Yang will not have any more accidents now. ”
Before the words fell, there was a sudden shout of killing in the distance.
Gongsun Kang led the people of the headquarters. Covering up from a distance, the soldiers shouted: "Don't leave Xiahoulan!" ”
The hungry Guanzhong Army did not belong to the Han'an Army.
To be precise, the camps of the Guanzhong Army are the foundation of the Han'an Army, but not every soldier who enters the camp can enter the Han'an Army. You must go through rigorous training, and then you must be selected from it, and you can only join the Han'an Army if you pass.
And most of the soldiers who were eliminated were stationed on the spot.
Such a team. first escaped death, and there was no longer the slightest will to fight. Now that he has encountered an accident, he immediately panicked.
Xia Houlan pulled the saddle and got on the horse. Guns shouted loudly.
But who will listen to him? The whole thing was messed up, and he was killed by Gongsun Kangdi's people and fled in the wilderness. Throw away the armor.
Xiahou Lan led the army to kill a bloody road and ran in the direction of Yang.
Seeing that there is Beibi Mountain in front of you, as long as you go around, you will not be far from the sun. At this time, it was already dark, and there were only two or three thousand people left around Xia Houlan, all of them exhausted, obviously to the point where they couldn't run.
Xia Houlan's mount is a great horse in the Western Regions, and now it is also gasping for breath.
"The whole army will stay for a while, take a rest, and we will travel from the Beibi Mountains overnight to Yang."
Going around Beibi Mountain, and passing through Beibi Mountain, it may sound like no different, but in fact, the distance is different.
Walk through the North Mountain, and go straight to Dongze in the suburbs of Yang.
If you go around the North Mountain, the distance will be increased by half. Moreover, the official road of the road, I can't say if there will be ambushes?
When the soldiers heard Xiahoulan's words, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
One by one, they sat on the ground, not listening to their breaths. Fortunately, this is May, and if it is winter, I am afraid that half of it will freeze to death. Xiahoulan also jumped off his horse, let the horse look for food on his own, and sat down against a tree with a spear in his hand.
All around, it's quiet......
Xia Houlan looked at the few soldiers left and secretly regretted it.
Putting aside prejudices, in fact, Dong Li is also very good, at least he helped the Han Emperor to ascend the throne, and also made a big splash for the Han Emperor.
He never interfered in the affairs of the DPRK and China.
In addition to grasping the military power, it seems that Dong Li did not make any excessive moves.
When did you look at Dong Li unpleasantly? Maybe it started with the crusade of the Kwantung princes ten years ago.
The fledgling Xiahoulan was like a blank sheet of paper at that time.
He believes what others say. was later captured, although he was submissive to Liu Yan, but he was hostile to Xun Yan after all. And this hostility came very inexplicably, was it because he couldn't look down on Dong Li, or because he lost to Lu Bu, he was captured at the beginning of the battle, and he breathed a sigh of breath in his heart? Ha, it's really not clear.
At the beginning, Xiahou Lan tried to recruit Zhao Yuntian Yu for the Han Emperor, but was unsuccessful.
At that time, was Xiahou Lansheng angry? To be honest, Di was indeed very annoyed, but now that he thinks about it, Zhao Yun grew up with him since childhood, why is he unwilling to agree to his request? Tian Yu was also a talented person for a while, but why did he give up Emperor Han and follow Dong Li? was forced to be in a hurry, and would rather lead the troops to that barren land than ......
Perhaps, I was wrong from the beginning!
Scenes from the past emerged in Xia Houlan's mind.
From the beginning with Liu Bian, to later Liu Bian in Anding, in Shuofang......
Regardless of Liu Bian or Empress Dowager He, Yu Dongli gets along very well. It's just that these people are blind.
With a dizzy head, Xia Houlan is a little sleepy!
Suddenly, I heard a shout of killing sounding from the mountains in the north, "Don't let go of Dong Thief Army, don't let go of Xiahoulan!" ”
A group of men and horses came out of the mountain, and the leader of the group, with blue eyes and purple beards and a sword in his hand, was none other than Sun Quan.
"Xiahoulan, Sun has been waiting here for a long time!"
At this moment, Xia Houlan's group, after a short rest, not only did not recover their spirits, but became even more depressed. Even Xia Houlan herself, after sitting and resting for a while, felt that her whole body was sore.
Gritted his teeth and got up, but the war horse did not know where to go.
Seeing Sun Quan leading the troops to kill, Xiahou Lan couldn't help but close her eyes and secretly shouted: Today, my life is over!
