Chapter 106: Before the Decisive Battle
Youzhou is located in the northernmost part of the Han Dynasty, which is adjacent to various ethnic minorities in the north, and the Han people here are often bullied by foreign tribes, among which the two largest foreign forces, Wuhuan and Xianbei.
Therefore, for the successive rulers of the Eastern Han Empire, Youzhou is undoubtedly the most troublesome piece of land for them. It was not until Liu Yu took office that the situation changed in Youzhou.
At this time, in the Taishou Mansion of Youzhou City, the old and strong chariot general Huangfu Song sat on the main seat with a gloomy face, and Zhu Jun, the general of the right chariot cavalry, sat under Huangfu Song with a cold face, and the rest of the generals sat down in their own priorities.
There was an oppressive aura in the air, as if it could suffocate at any moment. The generals sat there cautiously, looking at their noses and noses. No one dared to move, lest it trigger the roar of the commander.
Huangfu Song's gloomy face was as if he could seep water, his eyes were full of coldness, and he said with a chill: "Huguan, my army is the main way to transport grain, and the throat of my tens of thousands of troops is firmly occupied by the thief army at this time, and it is strangled by our army. What do you think? ”
"Newspaper~"
Outside the Youzhou Mansion, a horse galloped from outside the city, and the post man was in the dust, and the crotch mount sweated like rain, and suddenly, the post man had run to the front of the Taishou Mansion, and shouted loudly, and the mournful shouts alarmed the defenders in the Taishou Mansion and the generals in the house, and they all watched ~~
As soon as the herald stepped into the house, he was sweating and panting. Huangfu Song couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, looking at the situation of the heralds, he was afraid that there was bad news, his eyes looked at the heralds, and he said sharply: "What is the military situation, general." ”
Seeing Huangfu Song's ugly face, the herald hurriedly knelt on the ground, couldn't take a breath, and hurriedly said: "Ren Qiucheng was lost due to the internal strife of the generals, and the main general Zou Jing was defeated and fled, Sun Jian and Liu Bei did not know what to do. ”
"What?" Huangfu Song's face changed greatly, and he shouted: "Zou Jing'er is misleading the country." Zou Jing's child misunderstood the country!! ”
Liu Yu's face in the hall became extremely ugly in an instant, Zou Jing, as his direct subordinate, lost Renqiu City due to internal strife, and he couldn't watch from the wall anyway.
"Bang~"
With a resolute face, Liu Yu suddenly turned over and knelt in front of Huangfu Song, and knelt down deeply and said: "Zou Jing is under the command of a lower official, and his lack of wisdom has caused the loss of Renqiu City. The lower officials are ashamed of the emperor and ask the emperor to punish the crime. ”
Huangfu Song's cold eyes suddenly shot out an incomparably sharp gaze, staring straight at Liu Yu who was kneeling. Murderous intent is everywhere, the city is the first barrier to block the Yellow Army thief Kou from going north, but it was lost by Zou Jing and others infighting, how can he not be angry?
At this moment, the suppressed momentum in the hall reached the extreme, and Zhu Jun, who was sitting at the bottom, frowned, and hurriedly stepped forward to attach his ear to the emperor Fu Song and said: "Liu Bo'an is a loyal minister of the Han family, and if the prince punishes him at this time, I am afraid that it will not be easy to explain to the Son of Heaven." At this time, it is a situation where the battle with the Yellow Turban Thieves is about to break out, and the public should not make extraneous branches, and everything is mainly to eliminate the Yellow Turban Bandits. ”
Suddenly, the cold color of Huangfu Song's eyes slowly receded, and he changed to a warm look, and the suppressed momentum in the house seemed to disappear in an instant, he personally stepped forward, helped Liu Yu up and said gently: "Zou Jing is unwise, so he made a big mistake, and he really didn't do Bo'an's business, Bo'an please get up quickly." ”
Liu Yu said with shame on his face: "Yu has no way to teach, thank Huangfu for his great kindness." ”
Suddenly, a slender man wrapped in black walked into the mansion, and everyone frowned, looking at who was in front of them in puzzlement. I saw that the man in black lifted the black cloth wrapped around his head, revealing a resolute face, with a faint smile on his face, bowed down and saluted Huangfu Song: "Yu greets the general of the left chariot." ”
Huangfu Song, who was sitting on the main seat, hurriedly said: "Zhongde doesn't need to be polite. Inviting Zhong De to come today is really a last resort. ”
Cheng Yu set fire to Gaoyang City, burned the Yellow Turban Army and the people in the city, and felt that the heavens were peaceful, so he resigned and asked Huangfu Song for a thatched hut, self-cultivation, and dissolving anger. Later, I accidentally learned that someone was looking for the arsonist, so he didn't show his true face, and the general military situation was sent by Huangfu Song.
Now Cheng Yu didn't want to come, but he had to be protected by Huangfu Song, so he could only be ordered to come. Cheng Yu said lightly: "I don't know what happened when the Emperor Fu Zhao Yu came?" ”
"Now that Huguan is occupied by thieves, firmly choking the throat of our army, and Renqiu City has lost to the enemy, now I don't know if Zhongde has a plan?"
Zhu Jun glanced at Huangfu Song, got his approval, and said slowly.
"Hmm!"
When Cheng Yu heard this, he stroked his beard and pondered: "My army and the Luoyang Imperial Forest Army are sandwiched between the thieves, which seems to be an advantage, but it is not. The point is that the delivery of food and grass for our army is a problem. Huguan was breached, and the grain road could only go to Jizhou. However, although the current forces in Jizhou have formed allies under the alliance of Yuan Benchu, once the thief will lead a large army to conquer, it will be unreliable. It is also impossible to transport grain all this way~but~" A strange smile flashed on Cheng Yu's face.
"But what?" Zhu Jun hurriedly asked. This is said to be small, it is related to the life and death of tens of thousands of troops, and it is said to be big, it is related to the survival of this Han Dynasty, can Zhu Junyan not be in a hurry?
"The enemy~army~of~grain~grass~hoarding~accumulation~in~river~!" Cheng Yu said word by word.
As soon as Cheng Yu finished speaking, Cao Cao, who was sitting in the hall, had a dark face, and his slender eyes flashed with a strange look. Secret Path: This person has quick wisdom, and he is a rare talent. If I be the Lord in the future, I will recruit him as my subordinate.
"Enemy food?" Huangfu Song repeated in a low voice, his whole body suddenly shook, he was just in the middle of the game, and was woken up by Cheng Yu, a fat man: "Zhongde is saying that our eyes should be on the grain and grass that the thief army has hoarded in the river?" ”
"Not bad." Cheng Yutou smiled and said: "Although the thieves are powerful, they consume a lot of grain and grass every day. If the emperor can take the opportunity to move the enemy's grain and grass for his own use, or burn his grain and grass to the fullest. Yu believes that within a few days, the enemy army will be in chaos, and then the emperor will be waving his troops upward, and the world will be peaceful. ”
Huangfu Song was overjoyed and said: "If you can break the enemy, Zhongde should be the first credit." I will definitely give credit to the saints and ask for merit for Zhongde. Then he said sharply: "Where is Gongsun Zhan?" ”
"The end will be."
A member of the military general shouted, majestic and loud, and stood tall in front of Huangfu Song, only to see that he was eight feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a scarf and brocade robe, which was very mighty!
Zhu Jun looked at Gongsun Zhan, who was powerful in Wu Kong, nodded and praised: "Bo Jun has guarded the frontier since the town, conquered the east and the west to fight against foreign peoples, and even forced the leader of Karasuma to lead the people to surrender. It's outside the Megatron plug. ”
Gongsun Zhan clenched his fists and said forcefully: "The last general was born in the frontier and witnessed the wolf ambition of the alien race outside the Saiwai and the tragic situation of killing my Han people for no reason. The last general will be born as a Han person, how can he not contribute to the people of the Han Dynasty. ”
"Good!" Huangfu Song shouted: "What a good one is the people of the Han Dynasty, and now the thief Zhang Bao is bewitching the people and poisoning the world." Their grain and grass are hoarded among the rivers, and you dare to lead your troops there? ”
Gongsun Zhan's eyebrows were raised, and he suddenly knelt on one knee, and the armor of his whole body "rattled". I saw him say sharply: "Why don't you dare? If you can't complete the task, the last general is willing to come and see you! ”
"Good!"
Huangfu Song was overjoyed and said: "I and your 10,000 elite foot soldiers, plus your 3,000 white horse followers, I am making up for you 10,000 cavalry, a total of 20,000 horses, you go and burn the enemy's grain and grass." I will definitely give you the credit for beating the saints. ”
"The last will obey."
Gongsun Chan responded violently, stood up and took the order.
Zhu Jun looked at Gongsun Zhan's distant back, stroked his beard, and praised with a smile on his face: "Bo Jun is extremely brave, and he grew up in the frontier to fight Hu people all the year round, and he is skilled in soldiers and horses, so he should be foolproof when he goes." ”
"Not bad." Huangfu Song echoed: "I am very relieved that Bo Jue is going, but there is one more thing that Gong Wei needs to go." ”
Zhu Jun said: "The emperor is sent, and the general will definitely go all out." ”
"Hmm."
Huangfu Song said with a worried face: "Although this burns the enemy's grain and grass, the pot is still in the hands of the thief army. I want Gongwei to go to the state and send troops to Zhang Yi, the assassin of the state. At that time, we will attack the thieves on both sides at the same time, and the thieves will be defeated if they are flanked on both sides. ”
"The last will obey."
