Chapter VII: Soldiers Sent to Jingzhou

The capital of Luoyang City for more than 200 years, at this time it was full of shouts and killings, Li Ru knew that the Xiliang army lacked food and grass, and offered advice to Dong Zhuo, "Xiangguo, there are many rich households in Luoyang, and you can get a huge fortune by killing them." Dong Zhuo was overjoyed when he heard this, "ordered Guo Yan to lead the Xiliang army of 5,000, slaughter the rich households in Luoyang, take their resources, raise their soldiers, and order people to carry all the population of Luoyang, and kill those who do not follow, and order the elite soldiers to dig up the imperial tomb and burn Luoyang. The generals of "Nuo" took the order and left.

On the other side, Sun Jian was attacking the Tiger Prison, and the Tiger Prison Pass was in danger, and at this time, Dong Zhuo sent someone to report "Childish, quickly get out of the Tiger Prison, take the army to Chang'an, and I will send a large army to meet you." After reading it, Li Dao said, "You go and tell Xiangguo, and the army will set off immediately." "Yes", the herald took the order. Li Dao glanced at the tiger prison and sighed. Li Dao ordered people to block the city gate and led the army straight to Chang'an. Sun Jian ordered the troops to rest, bury the pot and make rice, three hours later, Sun Jian personally led the troops to attack the city, until the city gate, were not attacked, Sun Jian was puzzled, ordered someone to hit the city gate, a few times in a row, the city gate did not move, Sun Jian thought that it would not be the Xiliang army to run away, ordered people to climb the city wall, except for the corpse, there was nothing left, Sun Jian ordered people to dig the city gate, half a day later, Sun Jian entered the tiger prison pass, thought (if you attack Luoyang now, save Your Majesty, build this great achievement, and worship the prime minister, you will definitely win a big territory). Sun Jian thought of this and said, "Come here, prepare the army, the whole army will set off immediately, send the troops to Luoyang, and send a message to Yuan Shao and others, saying that we have won the Tiger Prison Pass after a bloody battle, and now I am willing to be the vanguard, take Luoyang directly, and hope that the alliance leader will march as soon as possible." The herald took the order and left.

The next day, after the allied battalion got the news that Sun Jian had broken through the Tiger Prison Pass, only Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others went to support, and the other princes sang songs night and night, so uncomfortable. After Dong Zhuo and his entourage arrived in Xingyang, Li Ru found Dong Zhuo and said, "Xiangguo, you can order Xu Rong to ambush the pursuers here, after the allied forces are ambushed, they will definitely not send troops to pursue us again, and the army can sit back and relax." Dong Zhuo thought for a while and said, "Order Xu Rong to let go of the pursuers, order Lu Bu, ambush the pursuers after Guo Yan is broken, and Xu Rong blocks the remnants." Li Ru knelt down and said, "Xiangguo Gaojian," Then he took the command and left.

At this time, Sun Jian's camp, Sun Jian sent several helpers in succession and came back, "My lord, only Cao Cao led the army to come." At this time, Cao Cao came to the outside of the barracks, and the young general went to report, "Report, General Cao came to see the lord." Sun Jian got up to greet him and said, "I am looking forward to what you really want to wear, where is Yuan Shao?" Where is the army? Where are the princes? After hearing this, Cao Cao smiled bitterly and said, "Them, they are drinking six hundred miles away." After hearing this, Sun Jian said, "What, Dong Zhuo fled west, Luoyang was on fire, and the Xiliang army was retreating, why didn't Yuan Shao take advantage of the victory to chase and kill?" "Yuan Shao is worried that Dong Zhuo is hiding ambush soldiers, all the princes are also looking at me, I look at you, no one is willing to take the lead in sending troops, for a little grain and grass, soldiers and horses, and cities, they are all about to fight, only I lead more than 10,000 elite horsemen in my headquarters, and gallop to your aid in the starry night," Cao Cao said. Sun Jian shook his head after hearing this, and said, "Hey, our alliance leader really missed the opportunity." Cao Cao continued, "Brother Wentai, you are really exalting Yuan Shao, he didn't even see this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so why not sit down." Sun Jian asked, "What is Brother Mengde's opinion?" Cao Cao thought about it and said, "Brother Wentai, there is a great merit at the moment, in front of you and me, at the beginning of the alliance, the princes of all walks of life agreed that whoever first attacked Luoyang would be the hussar general, and at present, Luoyang is empty, and the Dong thief is defeated and fled, why don't you and I divide the troops into two ways, one way to concentrate all the infantry into Luoyang, and the other to concentrate all the cavalry, chase and kill Dong thief in the starry night, General Sun, which way are you willing to go?" After hearing this, Sun Jian thought for a while and said, "Most of the Jiangdong children in our department are infantry, and the cavalry is less than 3,000. After hearing this, Cao Cao said, "And I am all elite cavalry, General Sun, why don't you lend me the cavalry, I will personally lead them, chase and kill Dong thieves in the starry night, and you lead the infantry into Luoyang." Sun Jian said, "Seriously." Cao Cao responded, "It's true. Sun Jian clenched his fists and said, "So there is Brother Lao Mengde." After speaking, Cao Cao and Sun Jian immediately went their separate ways. On the way to pursue Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao said, "You just rush up and grab the Son of Heaven, and return immediately as soon as you grab the Son of Heaven." ”

At this time, Yuan Shu's camp tent, Yuan Shu sat on the main seat and said, "Cao Cao led the headquarters to attack, now Luoyang is empty, Cao Cao and Sun Jian will definitely attack separately, Sun Jian has fewer cavalry, and Cao Cao is all cavalry, Cao Cao will definitely coax Sun Jian, borrow his cavalry, pursue Dong Zhuo, and Sun Jian will occupy Luoyang, I now order Huang Zhong, Tai Shi Ci led 30,000 fine cavalry to follow Cao Cao, pursue Dong thief, Feng Xiao as a military advisor, you two must listen to Feng Xiao." The two generals took the order and left, and when Guo Jia left, he said, "The lord is so leisurely, we are tired of being courtiers." Yuan Shu was not angry but happy after hearing this.

The allied camp was full of shouting and scolding, and Yuan Shu said after entering, "Everyone, I got the news, Dong Zhuo was afraid of us, abandoned Luoyang, and fled for his life, now Luoyang is empty, and Sun Jian is about to enter Luoyang City, have you forgotten what you said at the beginning of the alliance?" If Sun Jian enters Luoyang, he will be the hussar general of the Han Dynasty. As soon as Yuan Shu finished speaking, he heard Yuan Shao say, "Everyone, wake up, if you don't march, you won't have any credit." The generals sobered up and put their armies in order.

At this time, Dong Zhuo and his entourage, Dong Zhuo's army was killing the people, and Dong Zhuo was teaching the Han Emperor a lesson. Wang Yun's family was marching slowly, and was suddenly ambushed, Wang Yun's war horse was frightened, and pulled Wang Yunyi's daughter to run to the cliff, Lu Bu saw this and saved this woman, this woman was grateful, Lu Bu saw that this woman was handsome, and fell in love with this woman. This also laid the foundation for killing Dong Zhuo in the future.

The next day, Cao Cao and his entourage passed through Xingyang, did not stop, pursued Dong thief, just out of Xingyang ten taels, was ambushed by Dong Zhuo's general Li Dao, Guo Yan, Cao Hong and others to the death, Cao Cao led a thousand horses to escape, Cao Cao was disheartened, just arrived in Xingyang and encountered Xu Rong and others intercepted, Cao Cao led the troops to fight to the death, at this time, Guo Jia and others led the army to come, rescued Cao Cao, Huang Zhongsheng captured Xu Rong, Cao Cao only had more than 300 horses left, Cao Cao wanted to kill Xu Rong, Guo Jia did not.

Guo Jia and others led their troops to continue the pursuit, and caught up with Dong Zhuo, Huang Zhong and others in Linjin, and won a great victory, seizing countless materials, Lu Bu came to fight fiercely, and was defeated by Huang Zhong, Tai Shici, and Ji Ling, and fled in a hurry. Dong Zhuo under the protection of Lu Bu, Li Dao, and Guo Yan, led the remnants of the army to flee to Chang'an, Guo Jia and others captured a large number of Xiliang cavalry, rescued 300,000 people, Guo Jia left Ji Ling, let him lead 10,000 troops, escort the people and prisoners to Nanyang. After this battle, Dong Zhuo lost 50,000 Xiliang cavalry, his vitality was greatly damaged, and he could only protect himself after returning to Chang'an, and he had no enterprising strength, which is a later story.

At this time in Luoyang, Sun Jian should be captured, is leading the generals, into the palace, Sun Jian's second son Sun Quan is saying to his father Sun Jian, "If the child is born a few years early, it would be good to come to the palace to play." Sun Jian said, "Quan'er, Ce'er, Dong thieves messed up Beijing, disasters all over the world, the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty turned into ashes overnight, hey, at this time the Han Dynasty was killed." Speaking of this, Sun Ce found something, picked it up and looked at it, only to see eight words written on it: "Ordered by Tianji Shou Yongchang". Sun Jian was overjoyed by this, Sun Ce knelt down and said, "Congratulations to my father for being the emperor." Sun Jian laughed with joy. Only Sun Quan said that this thing was a disaster. At this time, the herald came to report that "the lord, Yuan Shao and others have entered Beijing." After hearing this, Sun Jian said, "It's finally here, and I will order all the departments to reorganize the army and be ready to return at any time." ”

In the evening, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu placed wine in the Jiade Hall to celebrate Sun Jian's achievements. Yuan Shao was toasting, Cao Cao and Liu Bei came, Yuan Shao said, "Brother Meng De's class has returned to the court, how is the situation?" Let's go home in a big victory, have you saved the holy car? Cao Cao said, "I didn't win, I was defeated, and the defeat was extremely miserable, I led the troops in the starry night, chasing and killing Dong thief, but I was ambushed by Dong thief, if there is no road brother to send troops to rescue, I Cao Cao has died I don't know how many times, Yuan League Master, I have at least three opportunities to kill Dong thief and rescue the Han Emperor since I waited for the alliance, but these opportunities have been wasted by you." After hearing this, Yuan Shao asked Cao Cao rhetorically, "Why are you chasing and killing Dong Thief?" That's because you are greedy for merit and go deep alone, why, you want to rob the Son of Heaven alone, and you fell into the trap of Dong Thief, so you returned defeated. After hearing this, Cao Cao said, "That's right, I was a little rash and fell into Dong Zhuo's ambush, but after my ambush, why did I only have the road to save me?" Yuan Shao did not answer.

"It's a pity that after my defeat, I really can't chase and kill, but when I came back, the princes actually cooked sheep and slaughtered cattle here, drank and had fun, I have seen through this defeat, I have seen through the scheming of the list, you are called Fuhan and thieves, in fact, they are all for their own private interests, I Cao Cao is ashamed of your company, and I will leave." Liu Bei also said goodbye and left, Sun Jian saw that the time was ripe and asked Yuan Shao, "Master Yuan, since I joined the alliance, I, Sun Jian, have always been the vanguard, breaking the water, fighting the tiger prison, but I have not been able to get the support of the battalion, resulting in most of my Jiangdong children dying in battle, how do you let me face their parents." Yuan Shao said, "Listening to General Sun's words, I want to leave." Sun Jian got up and said, "Yes, the gentleman will never speak ill of me, I have suffered a war wound and can no longer fight, I am ready to lead my troops back to Jiangdong tomorrow." "Said I clenched my fists and wanted to leave.

"I'm afraid General Sun's illness is not a war injury, it's for the jade seal that has been passed down, Brother Wentai, everyone understands people, that jade seal is a great treasure of the imperial court, how can you take it away." Yuan Shu said. (Sun Jian is Yuan Shu's general, and Yuan Shu is very angry when he gets good things and doesn't give them to Yuan Shu)

Sun Jian denied it, Yuan Shao called out the armor, Sun Jian also called out his own personal soldiers, Yuan Shu didn't look good, and just about to stop it, Sun Jian captured Yuan Shao. Sun Jian and Yuan Shaoen broke off, Sun Jian was able to escape, and Yuan Shao ordered someone to send Liu Biao a secret letter, asking him to intercept and kill Sun Jian and retrieve the jade seal. When Sun Jian left the next day, Yuan Shu and Cao Cao came to see him off. At this point, all parties of the alliance turned their eyes into hatred, each sighed and resented, and the stars dispersed.

The next day, Xiangyang City was too guarded, Liu Biao summoned his generals, Liu Biao saw that everyone was together and said, "Yuan Shao sent me a secret letter, asking me to rob and kill Sun Jian, recover the jade seal, and promise me three cities in Yizhou, as a general, what do you think?" Huang Zu got up and said, "Lord, Sun Jian has never taken the lord in his eyes, and the Jiangxia warships often invade our Jingzhou. After hearing this, Liu Biao said: "You and the others join forces, but Sun Jian's opponent?" Cai Mao said, "The lord can use a strategy, the lord can personally lead the troops to intercept Sun Jian, and then show Sun Jian the secret letter that Yuan Shao asked the lord to ambush Sun Jian, indicating that the lord has no intention of being an enemy of Sun Jian, eliminating Sun Jian's vigilance, and then Sun Jian and others ambushed Sun Jian after they got on the boat." Liu Biaoyunzhi. The next day, Sun Nut was killed in Jingzhou at the age of Chinese New Year's Eve, and his body was also taken by Liu Biao, fortunately Liu Biao's general Huang Zu was captured, and at the age of nine, Sun Quan took Huang Zu to Liu Biao's camp, signed an alliance, and exchanged the body of his father Sun Jian, and was later buried in Qu'a.

Dong Zhuo, who was far away in Chang'an, learned that Sun Jian had died in battle, and said with great joy, "Haha, this is the end of Old Man Yu's opponent." Cao Cao and the others sighed.

At this time, in Nanyang County, in Yuan's mansion, Yuan Shu should have received the news of Sun Jian's death, Yuan Shu said, "Today, our general Sun Jian was killed by Liu Biao, and I want to send a large army to take it, and how to look at it as a general." Guo Jia said, "My lord, there are 100,000 soldiers in Xiangyang, and it is impossible for the princes to let us eliminate Liu Biao, and Liu Biao occupies the righteousness." Yuan Shu shook his head and said, "Liu Biao listened to Yuan Shao's words and killed Sun Jian, and the jade seal was not recovered, this is a good opportunity, how many people do we have now?" Tell the lord that the original 300,000, the existing 450,000, and all of them are elite soldiers, Nanyang County has a population of 3.16 million, and has been recruiting displaced people, the large granary to build more than 60 crops, and the grain and grass are sufficient, the lord wants to buy all the cattle to the people, and the army disabled war horses are also all given to the people. Xu Shu said. Okay, come here, send a message to all the princes, I want to avenge the general Sun Jian, and if you want to make trouble, just come. "No", the herald took the order and left, Guo Jia said, "You can write a letter to Sun Ce and raise troops together," "Feng Xiao is right." Yuan Shu replied.

In 190 AD, Yuan Shu raised 300,000 troops under the banner of avenging the general Sun Jian, known as 600,000, and sent troops to Xiangyang, (Nanyang is very close to Xiangyang,), Sun Ce raised 50,000 troops to strengthen his momentum. Liu Biao was shocked when he learned that Yuan Shu had raised troops. Busy sending envoys to Nanyang, and sending a large number of envoys to various places to ask for help. Liu Biao sent his henchmen to Yuan Shao, hoping that Yuan Shao could resolve it. At this time, everyone in Xiangyang City was in danger, the morale of the army was greatly reduced, and there was no strength to fight.
