Chapter 509: Zhao Yun
Li Qi and Guo Yan had a big quarrel and finally broke up. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The next day, Li urged to say goodbye and led the 60,000 troops of his headquarters out of Tunhuaili.
Within a few days, Yang Feng and Zhao Cen, who were pregnant with ghosts, also parted ways with Guo Yan. Yang Feng led 50,000 old troops to Maoling, and Zhao Cen led 20,000 old troops to Baling. Guo Yan thought that it was Li Qi who instigated it, and Yang Feng and Zhao Cen would lead the troops to leave, so he was furious at that time, and he raised an army of 100,000 to kill Benhuaili.

Northland-gun, Hwachi.
Zhang Bao's temporary residence.
"Justice, Dong Huang's head should almost be sent to the Liangzhou army, right?" A sneer appeared on the corner of Zhang Bao's mouth, and he said to Guo Tu, "Now it depends on whether Li Ru has the ability to save the situation, if nothing else, the melee between the various departments of the Liangzhou Army should be staged soon, right?" ”
"Although Li Ru is full of wisdom, he doesn't have much prestige in the army, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to save the situation." Guo Tu said this, and said to Zhang Bao with a worried expression, "Although the hundreds of thousands of Liangzhou rebels are huge and chaotic with each other, they are actually not to worry, it is difficult to pose a threat to us in the short term, but the nearly one million people in Guanzhong who have just moved to the north are a big trouble." ”
Zhang Bao frowned and said, "What's the trouble?" ”
Guo Tu said to Zhang Bao worriedly: "The lord doesn't know, just now General Cheng Yuanzhi sent someone to report that many immigrants in Guanzhong have nothing to do when they are full every day, and they are specially causing trouble!" In the 10 days of the second half of last month alone, there were hundreds of incidents of silver annihilation, as well as dozens of murders. The people of Guanzhong have just moved to the north, they are not familiar with the place, and their livelihood is not settled, and their emotions are very restless, and it is easy to get out of control. ”
Zhang Bao frowned and said: "It seems that we have to find something for them to do first, and we can't let them stay idle like this all the time." How did the people of Youzhou arrange the last migration? ”
"The land of Youzhou is to organize people to dig canals, so that the people can exchange labor for rations!" Guo Tu smiled bitterly, "However, Beidi County is more fertile than Youzhou, and the land is a lot more fertile, even if you open a canal, I am afraid that you won't need so many people~"
Zhang Bao frowned and said: "In this case, the people can be allocated to reclaim the wasteland for fields, so that by the spring of next year, tens of thousands of hectares of fertile land can be obtained, and after the first season of rice and wheat is ripe, the rations of these million immigrants will be enough to be self-sufficient, and they can form two granaries with Youzhou, so wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?" ”
Guo Tu shook his head and said: "But now that the sowing season has not arrived, what can I do?" ”
Zhang Bao thought hard for a long time and finally got nothing, and frowned thickly: "Isn't Guan Ning good at internal affairs?" The public can send someone to send a letter to Guan Ning. In addition, Gao Shun was ordered to recruit new soldiers. ”
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
In April of the sixth year of the first peace of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, after nearly half a year of excavation by hundreds of thousands of people, the outline of the Beidi canal began to appear, and the Beidi Canal was divided into two sections, south and north, which respectively traversed the south and north banks of the river, and almost included the entire Beidi Plain into the irrigation range.
However, at this time, heavy rains fell in the upper reaches of the river, and the river basin began to enter the annual flood season, and the rising water level of the river posed a fatal threat to the wheat fields on the plains on both sides.
Guan Ning is faced with a dilemma: in order to keep the wheat fields on both sides of the river, he must mobilize people to strengthen the river embankment, so that there will be no time to repair and dredge the canal, once the river backflow is formed, the canal will be blocked by a large amount of silt, so that the previous efforts will be wasted.
If the canals are to be repaired and dredged, it will be impossible to protect the river embankment, and once the river bursts, all the wheat that is about to ripen on both sides of the river will be flooded, and millions of immigrants from Guanzhong will suffer from famine due to lack of food.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
The scorching sun is in the sky, mercilessly roasting the earth.
A heavily armed hoplite was standing silently on the unsheltered sand, the ground was hot to the feet, the rolling dunes were steaming with a faint heat that obscured the vision of all the soldiers, the air was suffocating hot, and the air in the lungs was scorching.
Gao Shun was dressed in heavy iron armor, like a hard stone sculpture, standing at the front of the team.
The swarthy iron armor absorbed the heat of the scorching sun to the fullest, like an impermeable steamer, firmly wrapping Gao Shun's majestic body, with crystal beads of sweat sliding down his face, gently dripping on the hot breastplate, only to hear a soft sound, the drop of sweat has already turned into a piece of vapor, only a small white spot is clearly left on the dark iron armor!
"Poof!"
One soldier finally couldn't hold on, and shook from side to side twice and fell to the ground, letting the hot sand hurt his face, but he no longer had the strength to struggle and move. After waking up at dawn and blowing the trumpet, without eating breakfast, he carried dozens of pounds of heavy iron armor on the desert for a long march of fifty miles, and then endured two hours of exposure under the noon sun, and the soldiers' physical strength was seriously overdrawn.
The two soldiers next to him just wanted to bend down to help their companions up, and a majestic figure had already appeared in front of them, and a cold muffled snort sounded for a moment: "Don't help him!" ”
The two soldiers retracted their steps in a daze.
"Now that he's down, you can lift him up, but if he dies on the battlefield, can you die for him?" Gao Shun's hideous gaze swept over the soldiers who were still gritting their teeth and persevering, and said sharply: "You must understand that war is not a game, but a fight for life, and losing on the battlefield means death!" ”
The desert, which had been silent and windless just a moment ago, suddenly howled and sand flew away.
But no one cared about the oncoming flying sand, and the eyes of all the soldiers were tightly focused on Gao Shun's face.
"Only the strongest and most tenacious soldiers will survive to the end! If you don't want your head to be the spoils of your enemies, you have to endure the most rigorous training and the most painful experiences! It's hot, tired, what are you afraid of? As long as you can survive on the battlefield, you are better than anything else! ”
"You can not be a soldier, but since you have chosen to be a soldier, you must be a good soldier!"
"Not for anything else, just for the egg under your crotch, if it's a man, straighten up, don't lie down!"
The wind howled, and the clouds were in all directions.
On April days, the child's face changed when he said that it would change, and the sky was still clear just now, and it was already raining heavily in a blink of an eye. Gao Shun straightened his body, let the cold rain wash the iron armor on his body to his heart's content, wash away the heat that had accumulated all morning, and in the hazy vision, the black hoplites in front of him still maintained a rigorous formation.
Half a year of hard training has finally not been in vain, these 50,000 infantry have already begun to become a climate, they are well-trained and well-equipped, at least they look like that, and now, there is a lack of baptism of war! No matter how well-trained a recruit is, he can only be a recruit, and he will never be able to grow into an iron-blooded veteran without going through the baptism of iron-blooded war.
"Report~~" Suddenly, a fast horse galloped over, and howled bitterly in the heavy rain, "Lord Guan Ning has invited General Gao Shun~~"
。。。。。。
The day is like night, and the rain is like a note.
Guan Ning was dressed in a robe, and hurriedly greeted him from the river embankment.
When Gao Shun saw Guan Ning for the first time, he couldn't believe his eyes, he almost couldn't recognize Guan Ning anymore! Guan Ning's originally white face was already tanned at this time, and it was almost a fight with Dian Wei, and his face was still peeling in large pieces, which looked particularly terrifying.
Guan Ning's already extremely thin body was even thinner, and the cloak was draped over his body to look wide and large, which made people worry that a gust of wind would blow him away.
"Lord Guan Ning."
"General Gao Shun."
The two of them hugged their fists and saluted, Guan Ning was not polite, pulled Gao Shun up the river embankment, pointed to the surface of the river that had almost overflowed to the edge of the embankment, and said worriedly: "The general has seen it, the water level of the river has risen to an extremely dangerous height, and the embankment is in danger of collapsing at any time. ”
Gao Shun looked back at the south bank of the river, and saw that in the storm, an endless wheat field was flooding with layers of wheat waves in the wind, and he couldn't help but gasp and said in a deep voice: "If the river bursts the embankment, the south bank will suddenly become a country, and the wheat that is about to mature will be harvested." ”
Guan Ning said: "If the embankment is not strengthened and heightened, it is inevitable that the river will burst." ”
Gao Shun's expression was solemn, and he said to Guan Ning with a solemn face: "If you have anything to say, Mr. Guan Ning, please speak up, as long as you can Gao Shun will obey your orders." ”
Guan Ning said: "200,000 people need to hurry up to repair the canal, and strive to dredge the canal before the maximum flood season of the river, otherwise once the river water forms a backfill, the canal will be blocked by silt, so that the hard work of 200,000 people for nearly half a year will be in vain!" ”
"Hmm." Gao Shun nodded and said, "This will understand. ”
Guan Ning said: "Therefore, this river embankment, as well as the thousands of hectares of wheat on the south bank, can only be handed over to the general!" ”
Gao Shun said awe-inspiringly: "The last general understands!" Please rest assured that Mr. Guan Ning will not die, as long as Gao Shun's 50,000 troops are not dead, the river embankment will never collapse, and the wheat on the south bank of the river will never be flooded by the river! Millions of migrants will never go hungry because of lack of food. ”
"With the general's words, I will be relieved." Guan Ning held Gao Shun's hands tightly and said emotionally, "Please, general." ”
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
Yuzhou.
Cao Cao's army is in a large camp, and Cao Cao is convening his subordinates to discuss a plan to break the enemy.
Strategist Guo Jia said: "Our army has few soldiers, the thieves are huge, and they have successively defeated the officers and troops of Lord Kong Ling, it is the time when morale is high, if our army launches a frontal attack at this time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a chance of victory." Therefore, Jia thinks that we should avoid the real and attack the false, and win by surprise. ”
Cao Cao said: "How to win by surprise? ”
Guo Jia said: "The thieves and soldiers are bound to lack military rations, and they do not have any baggage with the army, and the needs of the army depend on robbery. If they can cut off their supply, the thieves will be crushed without a fight! ”
Cao Cao said: "How to cut off its supply? ”
Guo Jia said: "The lord can order Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Zangba, Li Dian six generals each to lead 500 elite soldiers, divided into three teams, take turns to fight, day and night non-stop attack Liangshan, if the thieves advance, then retreat, if the thieves retreat, then advance, drums, retreat then Ming Jin, so that the thieves are upset and confused, do not dare to go out to loot, so that within ten days, the thieves will run out of food and collapse. ”
"Good!" Cao Cao struck the festival and said, "According to the plan of filial piety, Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Zangba, and Li Dian listen to the order!" ”
The generals of Xiahoudun stepped forward, lined up in front of Cao Cao, clasped their fists and said sharply: "The last general." ”
Cao Cao said: "According to what Mr. Guo Jia said, each leader has 500 elite soldiers, divided into three teams to attack Liangshan all the time, and there must be no mistake. ”
"Yes!"
The six generals of Xiahou agreed with a bang and took the order to leave.
。。。。。。
Mobei.
After nearly a year of bloody conquest and barbaric plundering of the Xianbei people in the central part and the Ding Ling people in the north, the subordinates of Zhoucang and Guanhai have now developed into a large tribe with a population of nearly 100,000. The once 1,000 heavily armored iron horsemen are now all lords of the grassland, with thousands of slaves and thousands of cattle and sheep, and more than 100 slaves.
Gao Shun and Gongsun Zan killed the most eloquent tribal leader of the eastern Xianbei in the first battle of Wolf Juxu Mountain, Kebineng, and the eastern Xianbei has been in a slump since then, and the most powerful and populous Xianbei people in the past have since become the lowest slaves and become the objects of enslavement of the Han people, the Huns, and the Karasuma people.
Due to the existence of the Xianbei as a slaved ethnic group, the Xiongnu and Karasuma were able to settle for the status quo and willingly become the minions of the Han Chinese. Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao only had 3,000 Han Chinese in their hands, but they were able to firmly control the grasslands in the central part of Mobei, which was inseparable from the strong support of these ethnic groups.
However, the support of these peoples is only temporary. With the passage of time, with the vigorous growth of the next generation of the old tribe, with the foreign invasion and expansion, these peoples will continue to die out and be constantly integrated, and the prairie of Mobei will eventually only belong to the Han people!
From then on, there will no longer be northern nomads in the Far East, at that time, the nomads living on the steppe are the same as the people of the Central Plains, they are the grandsons of Yan and Huang, and in the end, whether the Central Plains people rule the grassland, or the steppe people rule the Central Plains, the world will still be dominated by the Han people.
However, now Zhang Bao doesn't have time to think so much, he is busy injecting "fresh blood" into Zhoucang and them, and the integration of another thousand heavily armored iron cavalry will greatly consolidate the dominance of the Han people in the central grassland~
。。。。。。
Weekly cang.
After the big ceremony, Zhou Cang first welcomed Zhang Bao into the main seat, and then sat down next to Zhang Baoxia, and the remaining six thousand households also sat down in turn, and the female slave served mare's milk wine and roasted whole sheep like flowing water, and the big tent was filled with a strong milky wine aroma and the smell of mutton.
Zhang Bao stretched out his hand and tore off a fat leg of lamb and chewed it comfortably, scolding vaguely while chewing: "His grandmother's, or Zhou Cang, you know me, Lao Tzu is just this bite, hey, it's been a long time since I have eaten such authentic roast mutton, it's really fucking enjoyable." ”
A Qianhu wiped his mouth and said to Zhang Bao: "Lord, now you are also the biggest prince of the Han Dynasty, when will our brothers be able to fight with the lord?" ”
"Yes, my lord, the brethren have not fought under your command for almost two years." Another Qianhu coaxed, "Without the lord pressing the formation, even his mother's slashing will not have the taste of before." ”
Zhou Cang was also eager to try: "Big leader, what the brothers said is right, it just so happens that the secret agent has just sent back the secret letter, and the Fuyu Ri Law Department and the Deduction Department have not opened their eyes, and they actually gathered 20,000 cavalry to do something to us, this time we will not wait for them to do it, we will hit the door first and kill him." ”
"Zhou Cang, let you say it this time, that's exactly what Lao Tzu meant." Zhang Bao said this, and said with a fierce look in his eyes, "But this time, Ben will no longer directly command the brothers, and the opportunity will have to be given to the young people." ”
"Huh?" Zhou Cang was puzzled when he heard this, "Young man? What young people? ”
Zhang Bao clapped his hands and said aloud to the outside of the tent: "Zhao Yun, come in." ”
"Yes!"
A clear promise sounded outside the tent, and a majestic figure at the curtain of the tent had already entered the tent, and when Zhou Cang and the six thousand households looked at it urgently, a young general had already stood in the tent, with long sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a face like a crown of jade, a lion-headed ghost helmet on his head, and a light fur and bright silver armor, which was very outstanding, but who else was not Zhao Yun?
In the past, Zhao Yun and Tiger Prison saved Liu Bei's life, and then followed Liu Bei to Luoyang. The members of the secret guard who were active in Luoyang happened to hear this person claiming to be Zhao Yun, so they reported back to Zhang Bao, Zhang Bao hurriedly ordered the secret guard to attract Zhao Yun, and then took care of Zhao Yun's mother, Zhang Bao, Zhao's mother for a long time, and heard that Zhao Yun followed Liu Bei but regarded Zhang Bao as a thief, and immediately scolded Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun had no choice but to join the Yellow Turban Army. However, as time passed, the more I understood that the thief army who was shouting to disturb the world was really for the people of the world, so he returned to Zhang Bao.
Zhao Yun clenched his fists and said, "Zhao Yun sees the generals." ”
Zhou Cang and the six thousand households hurriedly got up and saluted, and said in unison: "The last general has seen General Zhao"
Zhang Bao waved his hand indifferently, motioned for Zhou Cang and the others to sit back at the original table, and ordered Zhao Yun to toast everyone one by one, and then said: "Zhou Cang, although Zhao Yun is young, his martial arts are not under Dian Wei and Xu Chu, and he has magical powers and strategies in the art of war, and what he lacks most now is actual combat experience." ”
"The Admiral understands." Zhou Cang nodded and said, "The Buyeo tribe is loose and not strong, so it can be used to train General Zhao." ”
"Hmm," Zhang Bao said, "The brothers of the heavy armored iron cavalry were all brought from the Central Plains, and there were hundreds of battles large and small, what kind of scene have you not seen?" Even if Zhao Yun is occasionally negligent, it will not cause a big disaster, and if Zhao Yun is handed over to you, he will rest assured. ”
