Chapter 80 kicks off

The big era has begun!

Luoyang, Weiyang Palace.

On the empty hall, the roar of the Spirit Emperor was heard far away.

"Waste, all waste!"

Emperor Ling's face turned pale, and he threw a large stack of tables on the ground.

"Anping, Guangzong, Julu, Changyi, Yingchuan, Runan, and Nanyang are in a hurry every day, well! What do you eat? Yes?! ”

The Spirit Emperor scolded while walking back and forth.

"It's all quiet? Where's the usual argument? Say! ”

Against the backdrop of Emperor Ling's monstrous anger, half of the ministers were silent, while others were thoughtful.

"Ahem, Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the top priority should be to send a general to suppress it."

Yuan Kui stood up and said.

He Jin and others also said yes.

"Well, tell me who to send? He Jin, you say? ”

Facing Emperor Ling's questioning, He Jin glanced at the civil and military officials, and felt a little difficult in his heart. Yellow scarves are rampant, known as millions, and their momentum is quite large, if anyone receives this arduous task, the punishment for failure is small, and the loss of life is a big thing.

Many officials met He Jin's eyes and lowered their heads to dodge.

He Jin looked at it for a long time, but he didn't make up his mind.

"Well, Your Majesty, the old minister has a word."

Wang Yun stood up at this time.

"The old minister recommended Zhonglang to do Lu Zigan. Lu Zigan is a great Confucian at home, and he is quite proficient in the art of war, so he is the choice of the general who leads the army! ”

Emperor Ling nodded slightly and said, "Where is Lu Zhi?" ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen is here."

Lu Zhi walked out calmly from among the hundreds of officials, with a long beard half a foot under his chin, free and easy.

"Lu Zhi, are you willing to receive your life?"

"Weichen dares not to die?!" Lu Zhi replied in a sonorous voice.

"Good!" Emperor Ling shouted: "Order Lu Zhi to lead the army to exterminate the Yellow Turbans and return the world to peace!" ”

Lu Zhi was ordered to retreat.

"However," Emperor Ling's voice changed, and said: "The Yellow Turban is powerful, and Lu Zhi alone is overwhelmed, so who else can be promoted?" ”

Yuan Kui spoke again at this time: "The old minister recommended General Zhu Jun. ”

At the same time, He Jin also elected Huangfu Song.

"Okay, then, I ordered the general He Jin, to command the left and right Yulin armies, to defend Luoyang, and set up heavy troops to defend each checkpoint outside Luoyang City; Lu Zhi led an army of 50,000 and attacked Jizhou; Huangfu Song and Zhu Junchi came to the aid of Yingchuan, Nanyang and other places! In addition, an immediate order was issued that the county commanders and county guards in various places immediately organized county soldiers to fight against the Yellow Turbans! ”

After retiring from the court, Emperor Ling returned to the palace with Zhang Rang.

As if taking off a heavy burden, the Spirit Emperor slumped on the Taishi chair, and his face looked even more pale and weak.

"Father, did you say I did something wrong?"

Emperor Ling thought of the above tables that had come one after another in the past two days, and remembered Liu Yuan's original words, and couldn't help but regret a little.

Zhang Rang looked at the Spirit Emperor's tired expression and sighed secretly.

"Your Majesty, the world is Your Majesty's world, and Your Majesty should do what he wants."

When Emperor Ling heard this, the corners of his mouth curled: "You, you can speak." ”

"After the Yellow Turban commotion, the wealthy family should have suffered a big injury" Emperor Ling closed his eyes slightly, as if asking.

"Yes, Your Majesty. The Yellow Turban thieves attacked the wealthy everywhere, confiscated their property, and the power of the family in the entire Central Plains was greatly reduced. Zhang Rang said so, but added in his heart: The small family is unlucky, but the big family is even stronger! Moreover, it is not only the family that hurts the vitality, but also the whole world!

But he didn't dare say it.

All of this was formed under the acquiescence of the Spirit Emperor, if he said the wrong thing, he was against the Son of Heaven, and he didn't have the courage to do so

Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun led an army of 40,000 to the south, wiped out the small group of yellow turbans south of Luoyang at a very fast speed, and then rushed straight to Yingchuan!

Lu Zhi led an army of 50,000 to Jizhou in the north, broke countless yellow scarves, and collided with Zhang Jiao's army in Ye County!

Zhang Jiao relied on his strong military strength and wanted to collide with Lu Zhi. However, under Lu Zhi's scheming spirit and calculations, Zhang Jiao suffered several big losses, so the army did not dare to come out without permission, retreated to Yecheng, and confronted Lu Zhi from afar.

Lu Zhi saw that the Yellow Turban was powerful and did not dare to storm Yecheng, so he summoned his generals and negotiated in the tent.

"Now that the situation is grim, I wonder if you have any good advice for me?"

Lu Zhirong pretended to be solemn and had a strong face.

"Adults are serious"

This is true of all the generals.

The two armies are facing each other, the situation is clear, and the surrounding terrain is flat, so they can't think of a plan at all, and the best and most direct way is to attack. However, the walls of Yecheng City are thick, and there are hundreds of thousands of troops in the city, even if the Yellow Turbans are weak, it is not something that Lu Zhi's 50,000 people can defeat.

"Bergui, what is your plan?"

Lu Zhi turned his face and saw the student Gongsun Zhan with a pensive face, and couldn't help asking.

Gongsun Chan saluted respectfully and said, "Teacher, there are nothing more than two battles on the march, one is just one is just one is strange. Nowadays, it is not possible to attack strongly, and it is useless to fight hard, so it is natural to use strange strategies. The Yellow Turbans were strong, but they were not without their weaknesses. ”

"Oh? So what do you say? ”

"There are 300,000 people in the yellow scarves, and the consumption of grain and grass is huge, and only one Yecheng can't support it, so the students think that a drag word will do!"

"Tell me about it."

"The students thought that they would always pay attention to the rear of Yecheng and rob the Yellow Turban Grain Road, and the 300,000 Yellow Turbans would naturally go down without a fight!"

Lu Zhi pondered for a moment and said, "Having said that, there are many Yellow Turban soldiers, and they can divide a large army to protect grain and grass at any time, how can they rob it at will?" ”

"Besides, this is a big responsibility, who can take on it?"

"Students willing!" Gongsun Zhan immediately said: "Please ask the teacher and the students to ride together, the students will definitely stir up Yecheng to the rest!" ”

Seeing that Gongsun Chan was so confident, Lu Zhi nodded and joined Gongsun Chan's 5,000 cavalry army.

Gongsun Zhan received the general's order, got out of the tent, led the army by himself, left the camp, and went straight to the rear of Yecheng.

A few days later, most of the grain and grass in Yecheng were consumed, Zhang Jiao sent people to the rear to urge the grain, and the next time, 20,000 yellow scarves escorted the grain and grass to enter Yecheng, and was attacked by Gongsun Zhan, losing thousands, and the grain and grass were burned.

Zhang Jiao was furious and sent people to pursue.

It's a pity that Gongsun Chan fought with foreign races in his early years, and he was well versed in cavalry fighting, so he didn't have a hard encounter with Zhang Jiao at all, and only wandered around, and when he met a small strand of yellow turbans, he was annihilated with one blow, and when he met a large strand of yellow turbans, he immediately fled!

Subsequently, the Yellow Turban escorted grain and grass several times, whether it was 20,000, 30,000, or even 50,000 troops, but they were either divided by Gongsun Zhan, or transferred the tiger away from the mountain, and successfully burned the grain and grass.

Zhang Jiao couldn't, so he had to withdraw from Yecheng and retreat to the giant deer.

Lu Zhi took the opportunity to pursue and cover up, causing Zhang Jiao to suffer heavy losses

The leader of the Yingchuan Yellow Turban is one of the best generals under Zhang Jiao.

Bo Cai is quite brave, and he is rough in the art of war, relying on the large number of people, he actually defeated Zhu Jun!

Seeing that the situation was not good, Huangfu Song immediately led his army to retreat to Changshe, and was besieged by the Bocai army

Zhang Mancheng, the leader of the Nanyang Yellow Turbans, led a large army to break through more than ten cities in a row, and finally besieged Nanyang City, seeing that victory was in sight.

Qin Jie, the county guard, saw that tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans were besieging Nanyang, and he couldn't think of a way in a hurry, and the defenders of Nanyang were only 10,000 people, and they couldn't resist Zhang Mancheng's attack at all. After thinking about it, Qin Jie summoned all the big households in the city, moved them with affection, understood them with reason, and asked each family to send soldiers, a total of twenty or thirty thousand, which resisted Zhang Mancheng's attack.

There is also a city gate guard Shi Chang Huang Zhong, who shot Zhang Mancheng with an arrow on the city wall, and the Yellow Turban was in chaos, and pushed Zhao Hong as the commander to continue to attack Nanyang

Youzhou.

Liu Yuan held a few tips in his hand, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Bong-hyo, look." Handing one of them to Guo Jia, Liu Yuan said: "Zhang Bao is really a talent, he actually wants to go north to attack Youzhou" Saying that, Liu Yuan shook his head again and again, and actually laughed.

After reading it, Guo Jia also curled the corners of his mouth.

I have to say that Zhang Bao chose the wrong object.

It's not good to attack anyone, and it is simply wishful thinking to choose Youzhou as the target!

"Then what does the lord mean?"

Guo Jia knew that Liu Yuan had an agreement with Emperor Ling that he could only send troops if he had obtained Emperor Ling's secret decree, so he asked this question.

"Without His Majesty's will, I naturally can't move. But hehe, it doesn't mean that Huang Chang can't move. Didn't the Son of Heaven decree that county officials in various counties organized county soldiers to spontaneously fight against the Yellow Turbans? If I don't move, do I let the Yellow Turbans attack Youzhou? ”

Guo Jia smiled, revealing the same look.

"Then Feng Xiao, send an order to Huang Chang, let him lead 10,000 elite iron cavalry, kill Zhang Bao, and bring back all the prisoners!"

Liu Yuan said lightly, Guo Jia seemed to see Zhang Bao looking up to the sky and crying.

Huang Chang received Liu Yuan's order and immediately became excited.

The general's fate is to fight on the battlefield and spill his blood. But Youzhou has been peaceful for a long time, and these generals have been fine all day long, and their hearts are about to be depressed and sick, so they have to take out their anger with the soldiers, and they practice all day long, endlessly.

The soldiers also held their breath and craved to drink blood every day, except, of course, the recruits.

After receiving Liu Yuan's order, Huang Chang couldn't wait to yell a few times and express his mind, but looking at the wolf-like light in the eyes of the soldiers under his command, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Why? Just because there are only 10,000 cavalry this time, who should be transferred?

"Ahem" Huang Chang coughed a few times dryly, and said: "General Ben thinks that everyone is afraid that they will be disappointed." ”

"Why?"

The generals inquired one after another.

"Hey, the lord ordered 10,000 cavalry to attack the Yellow Turban Zhang Bao Department entrenched in the Anxi generation of Zhongshan State"

"General, let's go!"

The commander of the light cavalry immediately stood up and shouted, looking like whoever didn't let him go, he would fight with whomever he wanted.

"We!"

Although there were only 5,000 heavy cavalry, their leader was also a 10,000-strong cavalry commander. He stood up and hurriedly shouted: "General, the heavy cavalry has not made any meritorious achievements since its establishment, and this opportunity must be given to us!" ”

Huang Chang pretended to be pretentious for a long time, and the two of them were so anxious that sweat came out, and then he said: "Well, let's do it, all the heavy cavalry are out, and the light cavalry is 5,000, a total of 10,000, and the army will start immediately!" ”

The heavy rider laughed and raised his eyebrows at the light rider.

The light cavalry commander glared at him fiercely, looked back and made a helpless expression to the ten thousand cavalry commanders under his command, and then ordered five of them, followed by Huang Chang and the heavy cavalry commander Wan cavalry, and strode out of the camp

Liu Yuan and Guo Jia stood on the city wall, watching the light and heavy second horsemen roar past from a distance, both showing worried looks.

"Lord, why don't you send a military advisor?"

Liu Yuan didn't answer, but asked, "Feng Xiao thinks, what about these cavalry?" ”

"It's elite."

"Hehe, 'called' elite is just called an elite!" Liu Yuan sighed: "I came from Youzhou, and I will win every battle, and even break the alien race, which makes them proud." Even generals like Huang Chang are the same. ”

Guo Jia deeply agreed: "What the lord said is good. As the saying goes, arrogant soldiers will be defeated, so why didn't the lord send military advisors? ”

"You must go through the test of blood and fire, and crawl out of the pile of dead people to be considered elite. Of the nearly 300,000 troops under my command, only a few tens of thousands have actually experienced the war, and most of the remaining ones are recruits selected in recent years. What about the veterans, immersed in the glory of the past, and the recruits, that is, blind pride, how can such an army be called elite? ”

"It is necessary for them to suffer and understand the truth."

Guo Jia breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Jia has long seen the shortcomings, but unfortunately there is no way to change it. But the lord, this is a battle, they are all the work of the lord, if the casualties are too great"

"It's okay!" Liu Yuan waved his hand and said, "The Yellow Turbans are just a group of farmers who pick up sticks, and they have no combat power. For Huang Chang and them this time, although they may encounter setbacks, they will definitely not have much loss! ”

"Experience!"

"Experience!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.
