Until the afternoon, the three important towns before Jiaxian County finally completely fell into the hands of Tai Shici, leaving a total of only a few thousand troops, staying in the town, and the rest of the army was all opened to Jiaxian before the city, and the army pressed the border. \\í group 4∴80656178\\
The loss of Zhangmao Town caused a chain reaction, and the towns in Hongnong County that received the news almost all retreated under the pressure of Liu Yi's army, and before Liu Yi's army had time to besiege the city, they withdrew all their troops into the city of Jiaxian County, Hongnong County, and wanted to rely on Gaocheng to confront Liu Yi's army.
Of course, the towns of Hongnong County did not really withdraw their troops, they also left part of their troops to stay in the towns, wanting to use this to contain Liu Yi's army, and what they withdrew were all elite cavalry. It's just that they didn't expect that those sergeants who were recruited later had limited loyalty to Dong Zhuo, and many sergeants, they were originally local people in Luoyang, Luoyang Capital, under the governance of Liu Yi, the people lived in peace and lived a stable life, so these original sergeants had the heart to vote for Liu Yi. Therefore, when the town guards led their elite soldiers away, they surrendered to the city and did not fight to the death against Liu Yi's army.
In this way, although the initial attack was not too smooth, in the end, according to the plan, all the towns except for Jiaxian in Hongnong County were basically taken.
In the face of Liu Yi's army, Li Dao Guo Yan, who was stationed in Jiaxian County, Hongnong County, suddenly panicked, because they didn't expect that Liu Yi's army would move so fast, and it was only a little more than half a day before they could force them to retreat on all fronts.
Compared with Jiaxian and Hongnong County, Hongnong County is more important. Moreover, Guo Yan in Jiaxian County saw that Tai Shici's army was only more than 40,000, so he thought about it for a while, left 20,000 elite soldiers in Jiaxian to defend Jiaxian, and led the army back to aid Hongnong.
The total strength of Zhang Ji, Li Dao, and Guo Yan. If you only count the elite soldiers, plus the 20,000 or 30,000 elite cavalry in Hangu Pass, there are almost 100,000 elite soldiers. For most of the day's battle, their elite soldiers actually had no losses. It's just that they lost 2,000 men and horses in Zhangmao Town at once, and in other attacks, they didn't lose 5,000 in total, so their strength survived.
Guo Yan was also very treacherous, he knew that the sergeants he recruited later. It is not yet a climate, not to mention the lack of combat power, and even loyalty is a problem. Therefore, what he left behind in Jiaxian was 20,000 elite soldiers from his headquarters, and what he took away were other sergeants.
In this way, the elite soldiers of Hongnong County. In fact, it was only Li Dao's 20,000 horses, and there were more than 100,000 troops and horses left, which were later replenished.
Those 100,000 horses. In fact, it is used to strengthen the momentum, and if you really want to fight against Liu Yi's army, I am afraid that you will collapse without a fight. Therefore, as a last resort, Li Ji and Guo Yan felt that they still had to ask Zhang Ji for help, and under the current situation, Hongnong County could not afford to lose, and would rather let Zhang Ji release Lushi County and keep Hongnong County.
Once the Hongjia county town is lost. None of them will have a hard time in the future, they will always be blocked by Liu Yi in Guanzhong Chang'an, and they will never do much.
Therefore, as Liu Yi and the military advisers expected, they sent a fast horse to report to Zhang Ji of the Lu clan and asked Zhang Ji to lead the army to Hongnong County. Meet them. And it's still 100,000 urgent.
They are not in a hurry, they really can't, Huang Xu and Xu Zhu, as well as Yan Liang and Wen Chou, they have gathered more than 100,000 horses before Hongnong County, they look at it from the top of Hongnong County, the army is all over the mountains, and they can't see the edge at a glance.
Liu Yi's army is not like their army, most of the army is only full, how many elite soldiers are in Liu Yi's army? Even if they are not elite soldiers, when they fight, everyone will be brave and take the lead.
For Liu Yi is good at agitating the people, Li Wei and Guo Yan have also heard about it, Liu Yi relied on some homeless people, and beat Yuan Shao so that he couldn't find the north, and at the beginning, Liu Yi was in Julu County, Jizhou, that is, with some ordinary people, he defeated Zhang Yan, just some homeless people, and it burst out with such great power in Liu Yi's hands. What's more, these sergeants who have officially formed the army and have undergone a certain amount of training?
Therefore, they only used 20,000 elites against Liu Yi's more than 100,000 combatable army, and they really didn't have any certainty. If they thought they were well prepared and could compete with Liu Yi, when most of the strength was concerned, the entire Hongnong County basically fell into the hands of Liu Yi, and the truth was far less optimistic than they thought.
Lewi's strength once again made them feel cold.
Therefore, they had to immediately ask Zhang Ji to lead the army to Hongnong County to help guard Hongnong, and at the same time, they also sent information to the guards of Hangu Pass, and asked the guards of Hangu Pass to be ready to support Hongnong County at any time.
If it weren't for Liu Yi's army to press the border, Li Dao Guo Yan would really be reluctant to compress the army and return to Hongnong County to defend this lonely city. But now, they have no choice but to do so.
Actually, the shape shì did not fall to such a point. If the elite soldiers of Li and Guo Yan had stubbornly defended the cities and towns in various places, it would be impossible for Liu Yi's army to capture so many towns so quickly. It is highly likely that within a period of time, the two sides will again create a situation of confrontation on the whole front, and it will not be possible to capture so many towns in a moment.
This qiē was given by Huang Zheng Wuyang in the first battle of Zhangmao Town, which was fought really beautifully, annihilating the 2,000 elites of Zhangmao Town and capturing nearly 5,000 men and horses. Here, in addition to demoralizing Dong Zhuojun, it completely eroded Dong Zhuojun's confidence in dispersing his forces to resist Liu Yi. Among them, the most important thing is the problem of annihilating their 2,000 elites.
Imagine, together, in addition to the 2,000 elite cavalry, there are other 5,000 soldiers, but why did Liu Yijun just annihilate the 2,000 elites and let go of the other 5,000 military horses? This question made Li Dao and Guo Yan shiver. thought that if the elites who were scattered in various places and stayed behind were all wiped out by Liu Yi, then Hongjia County would not have to defend it, and it would be able to surrender directly. Therefore, they had to withdraw the elite to Hongnong County first.
Not to mention how Huang Xu, Jia Xu and others led their troops to Hongnong County, how they were going to start attacking Hongjia County.
It was said that the fast horse urgently reported to Zhang Ji of Lushi County, and asked Zhang Ji to explain the current shape of Hongnong County, and asked Zhang Ji to lead the army to Hongnong County to support.
Zhang Ji, in terms of martial arts, is not the most powerful under Dong Zhuo, and in terms of strategy, he is not the best. However, Dong Zhuo likes to reuse Zhang Ji very much. *
Because. Dong Zhuo felt that Zhang Ji had some qualities that he did not have, that is, Zhang Ji was very greedy and insatiable. More greedy than all his men. Moreover, greed comes with great boldness. In fact, what Zhang Ji is doing behind the scenes, how could he Dong Zhuo not know? However, he acquiesced to Zhang Ji's actions. Usually, he just gave Zhang Ji a certain beating. For Dong Zhuo. Zhang Ji's greed is the reason why he can really control Zhang Ji, which is equivalent to him grasping Zhang Ji's handle, he can grasp Zhang Ji's lifeline, an insatiable subordinate, is a subordinate with shortcomings, but it is a subordinate who is relatively easy for him to master.
Moreover, there is one more reason why it is not humane. They. Still bedmates. Dong Zhuo is very, and Zhang Ji is also very. And, occasionally, I like some offbeat stimulation. When Zhang Jiba knotted him Dong Zhuo. He once gave his own woman to him to have fun with, and he occasionally played with his own woman with Zhang Ji. This matter is a secret between them, and this relationship has been until Zhang Ji doesn't seem to like women. After that, Zhang Ji became even more greedy.
This may be that after Zhang Ji married the Zou family, Zhang Ji was injured by the cold qi in the Zou family's body, and he could no longer do his best, just like a eunuch. Therefore, turn the lust for women into greed for money.
Zhang Ji is clever and quite cautious, so he can stand alone. Therefore, when Dong Zhuo assigned tasks to his generals. Even Xu Rong and the others are not very assured, but Zhang Ji is the most assured.
A greedy person is also very afraid of death. No matter what, he will save his life first. Therefore, for such a subordinate, Dong Zhuo likes it very much and uses it with confidence.
Therefore, it is not unreasonable for Dong Zhuo to leave Zhang Ji in Lushi County. He knew that Zhang Ji would definitely be able to hold it, and when he couldn't hold it, he wouldn't suffer too much.
When Zhang Ji received the letter from Kuaima, it was already afternoon.
Take over, 100,000 urgent requests for help, ordinary generals, will be the first to send troops to help, will not delay three or four. But Zhang Ji held the letter and newspaper, motionless, and sat quietly in contemplation.
The actions of Liu Yi's army were not unexpected, since a spy reported that Liu Yi personally led tens of thousands of troops to advance to his Lushi County, he knew Liu Yi's movements.
However, Zhang Ji thought that since Liu Yi's army had attacked Hongnong County, and with the momentum of thunder, he forced Li Dao and Guo Yan to withdraw their troops in one fell swoop, and could only hold the two cities of Jiaxian and Hongnong, but why didn't Liu Yi launch an attack on his Lushi County?
Zhang Ji was also ready to fight as early as when the spies reported that Liu Yi led the army to the west of Luoshui. He did not prepare passively like Li Dao Guo Yan, but concentrated all his troops back to Lushi County early, and he prepared a large amount of grain and grass in the county, which was enough to allow him to stay in Lushi County for a whole year. He is a warlord who sells his fellows, and there is no shortage of food on hand, some of which Dong Zhuo does not know.
The reason why Zhang Ji agreed to Dong Zhuo to stay in Lushi County, a poor town in the mountains, was mainly because he also had plans.
It is good that he is Dong Zhuo's subordinate, but now, Dong Zhuo fled to Luoyang, and he himself led the army in the Lu clan, which is equivalent to having a feeling of dividing the land and ruling with Dong Zhuo. Moreover, he saw Lushi County, although it was not conducive to his development and growth, it was very conducive to his lurking. If he can be given another year or two, he will be able to run Lushi County like an iron bucket, and even Liu Yi doesn't have to be afraid, he is stationed in Lushi County, as stable as Mount Tai.
In Zhang Ji's heart, in fact, at this time, he already had a mind to break away from Dong Zhuo and become independent.
However, at present, Liu Yi's strength is enough to compare with Dong Zhuo's strength when he was the strongest. It is impossible for him to stabilize Lushi County now, so he has to use Dong Zhuo's power to compete with Liu Yi. He planned to develop in Lushi County for a few years, secretly strengthen his strength, and then, suddenly send troops to occupy Wancheng, with Wancheng, he is equivalent to a broad place to develop, and he can rapidly expand his strength. At that time, he had the strength to stand on his own without Dong Zhuo. With Lushi County and Wancheng, he can develop to Jingxiang and Luoyang. In addition, it can also develop from Wancheng to the east and enter the Yingchuan area. Lushi County will be his strongest foundation.
However, Leo Yi took action, which completely broke his plan. What puzzled Zhang Ji was that Liu Yiming had already led the army to the vicinity of Lushi County. But why has the battle in Hongnong County already started, and Liu Yi hasn't taken any action?
Also, what worries Zhang Ji and makes him feel a little chill in his heart. Lewy's tens of thousands of troops are missing. He sent spies to track Liu Yi's tracks, but found that there was no one in the valley where Liu Yi was stationed, and Liu Yi's army was missing.
This, it's so unconscionable.
The sudden disappearance of Liu Yi's army must be some conspiracy, but what is this conspiracy? Zhang Ji couldn't figure it out.
Now, I have received a letter from Hongnong County. He kind of understood. faintly thought that Liu Yi's army must be ready to be used against him. But how will it be dealt with?
Zhang Ji thought that if he received a request for help from Hongnong County, if he led the army to relax without thinking about it, he would most likely fall into Liu Yi's ambush.
Zhang Ji has fought all his life, and he has seen a lot of ambush warfare and sneak attack warfare. How could he not have thought that Liu Yi would come to his army in Lushi County to be detrimental to himself? Now, he's pretty sure. Either Leo wanted to raid his county or ambush his cavalry. Therefore, he must not act rashly now.
To be honest, if he has the strength now, he doesn't need to rely on Dong Zhuo's power, and he doesn't think about Li Dao Guo Yan's request for help at all. Zhang Ji was not worried about their lives or deaths, on the contrary, he hoped that Liu Yi could capture Hongnong County as soon as possible. At the same time as cutting off Dong Zhuo's contact with Guanzhong and the outside world, he can also cut off his contact with Dong Zhuo, so that he Zhang Ji is equivalent to a force other than Dong Zhuo. In the future, there will be no need to listen to Dong Zhuo's orders.
Speaking of which, Zhang Ji actually has a deep hatred with Dong Zhuo that the world doesn't know. I wish Dong Zhuo would perish as soon as possible. Of course, no one else knows about this, but he knows it himself. In fact, in the past, this matter was not a deep hatred, but now, it is the hatred of Zhang Ji who wants to kill Dong Zhuo in his dreams.
It turned out that in the past, Zhang Ji shared his woman with Dong Zhuo in order to tie up with Dong Zhuo.
However, Dong Zhuo, a dog thief, likes to play with those pregnant women with big bellies. One of Zhang Ji's wives has been pregnant for several months, Zhang Ji does not agree with Dong Zhuo to play with this wife's room, but Dong Zhuo takes advantage of Zhang Ji's absence to forcibly commit violence.
Well, at that time, Zhang Ji didn't really care too much, because the wife had already had a leg with Dong Zhuo. But the problem is that being by Dong Zhuo like this actually caused his wife to have a miscarriage and failed to keep the child in his womb. Of course, Zhang Ji didn't feel anything at that time, but he was a little uncomfortable, because he was still young, and he couldn't give birth to a child once, and there would be opportunities in the future, and he had many women, just one of them could give birth to a child, and it didn't have to be that wife to have a child.
However, Zhang Ji didn't expect that after that incident, he seemed to have lost the ability to let a woman conceive a child, and there were so many women, none of them could conceive. At this moment, Zhang Ji panicked, as the so-called unfilial piety has three, and no queen is great. If he failed to let the woman conceive his child, his Zhang family would be wiped out, and what face would he have in the future to face the ancestors and ancestors under Jiuquan?
For this reason, he stopped the life of a sensual dog and horse, and wanted to rest for a while, first let the woman conceive her own child, and then say, it was during that time that he met the Zou family who made him fall into a ghost. It is equivalent to semi-forced, and he successfully courted the Zou family and successfully took the Zou family home.
However, on the night of the cave room, something happened that made him miserable for the rest of his life. She didn't expect that the Zou family was also a harmful goblin. He had just touched the Zou family, and he was frozen inexplicably. If he wasn't afraid that his nephew Zhang Xiu and Gun King Tong Yuan would just come to his wedding banquet, he would have died.
Since then, he has lost his normal ability as a man.
Zou is so beautiful, so beautiful that he can't bear to resent it, and Zou is still half forced to marry back, he really can't blame Zou for coming. However, in doing so, he will lose the ability to pass on the lineage. Later, when I thought about it, the only time in my life that I made a woman pregnant, and she was about to give birth, was Dong Zhuo who caused him to lose his child, otherwise, he would already have a descendant now, and if he has a descendant, he may not see the Zou family again, nor will he marry the Zou family, then, he will not lose the ability of a man.
Therefore, many times, when Zhang Ji thought about it, his heart was itching with hatred, and he hated that Dong Zhuo could become like him and lose the ability to pass on the lineage forever.
The only thing that made Zhang Ji feel a little relieved was that Dong Zhuo didn't seem to have any sons, only two or three daughters. In a sense, Dong Zhuo can be regarded as a son and grandson.
But Dong Zhuo still has the ability of a man, Zhang Ji was worried that Dong Zhuo would eventually have a son, and once decided to take the Zou family and Dong Zhuo once, and then let Dong Zhuo lose his normal ability as a man. However, the Zou family would definitely not be willing, and Zhang Ji was also worried that if he assassinated Dong Zhuo like this, his life would definitely be lost, so he didn't dare to do it seriously.
Anyway, when Zhang Ji thinks of this now, he hates Dong Zhuo in his heart. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for the recommendation ticket, your support is my biggest motivation. )
