Chapter 165: The name of the righteous man is Zang Hong

The Montenegrin Army, which had once raged in Hanoi, soon died down with the arrival of Lü Bu. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The angry lamb is still the lamb.

And the silent tiger, as long as it roars, will shake the four fields and the world panic.

Yuan Shao was shocked to hear that Lu Bu had sent troops to Hanoi, and suddenly felt that his face was gloomy, and he hurriedly sent people north to urge Gongsun Zhan, so that he could lead his troops south as soon as possible to force Han Fu to cede Jizhou. At the same time, Yuan Shao also launched a brutal suppression of the Montenegrin army that broke into the vicinity of Wei County in Jizhou.

Yuan Shao already has more than 30,000 soldiers and horses under his command, although he is not as majestic as he was in the Battle of Guandu, but Lu Bu can pacify Hanoi with 3,000 horsemen, how can he let the world see the joke?

Yuan Shao sent Yan Liang and Wen Chou, the fierce generals who had recently recruited in Jizhou, and let the strategists Xu You and Xiao Ji serve as military advisors respectively, and then Gao Gan and Gao Ran served as envoys to supervise the army, and ordered them to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to encircle and suppress the Montenegrin army from the north and south respectively.

The four divisions of the Black Mountain Army, Zuo Colonel, Guo Daxian, Feiyan, and Baique were successively defeated under the Yuan army, and the commander of the Black Mountain Army, Zhang Baiqi, hurriedly ordered all the troops to withdraw to Montenegro and no longer resist the Yuan army head-on.

Just when the Jizhou Montenegrin Army was suppressed, several Montenegrin troops took advantage of Lü Bu's army to fight in Hanoi, and actually emerged from the various valleys of the Taihang Mountain, targeting Shangdang County and Taiyuan County in Bingzhou.

It's a pity that although Lü Bu stayed in Hanoi, he had already set up a fence in Bingzhou before leaving, so he was not afraid of wild dogs coming to attack him. You must know that Lu Bu's arrangements in Shangdang and Taiyuan were aimed at preventing Yuan Shao in Jizhou, and the Montenegrin Army wanted to take advantage of the chaos to make trouble in Bingzhou, so it definitely chose the wrong place.

As soon as the two forces of the Black Mountain Army, Zuo Zhangba and Peng Zai, rushed to the vicinity of Lu County, they encountered a head-on attack by the rear battalion soldiers and horses led by Xu Huang, and Zuo Zhangba was cut off by Xu Huang in the melee, and Peng Zai was almost captured alive.

The two forces of Wulu and Li Damu, who attacked Taiyuan County, once came to Jinyang City after looting Yuci County, but were chased and killed by Zhang Yang personally led the army all the way and drove back to Taihang Mountain. The rich families in Yuci County were robbed by the Montenegrin army very badly, and some were even wiped out.

By the time Lü Bu received these messages in Hanoi, a huge contingent of people migrating north had already begun to cross the Taihang Dynasty.

For the arrangement before leaving, Lu Bu was still full of confidence.

Yanmen has Xu Rong and Guo Yi, Taiyuan has Wei Qi and Zhang Yang, Shangdang has Xu Huang and Chen Shi brothers, Xihe has Lu Zhi and Zhang Liao, and Yuanyin has Gao Shun and Xue Lan and others.

However, it was said that when Lu Bu was eyeing Luoyang in Hanoi, a lobbyist from Yanzhou asked to see him, and when Lu Bu heard the name of this person, he did not dare to slack off and personally went out of the camp to greet him.

The person who came was Zang Hong, a famous man who once took the oath on the altar of the Sour Jujube Association.

Zang Hongzi Ziyuan, two years older than Lu Bu, is a native of Sheyang County, Guangling County. His father Zang Min once served as the Taishou of Taiyuan County, Bingzhou, Zang Hong grew up in Taiyuan when he was a teenager, and he had several relationships with Lu Bu, and he was also half a fellow countryman.

Lu Bu remembered that Zang Hong was not only eloquent in history, but also had the ability to govern the state and county, and the most important thing was that this person was a famous righteous man, in order to rescue Zhang Chao, he was not afraid of Yuan Shao's army, and once held the city of Dongwuyang for a year, and finally died generously when the city was broken, and did not surrender to Yuan Shao at all.

Lü Bu was very respectful to Zang Hong, personally introduced him into his big tent, and then ordered the guards to serve wine and food.

Zang Hong couldn't eat, and asked Lu Bu anxiously: "Fengxian, have you ever received the news that Dong Thief has coerced the emperor and ministers to leave Luoyang and go to Chang'an?" ”

Lu Bu nodded and replied truthfully: "I am well aware of all the movements in Luoyang City. ”

Zang Hong smashed the several cases in front of him with his fist, and said bitterly: "Now is the time for the righteous martyrs of the world to repay their kindness and serve their lives, since there are tens of thousands of elite soldiers under your command, why do you only see the people of Hanoi suffering from the disaster of Montenegro, but you don't see the Son of Heaven and the princes and ministers looking forward to it day and night, hoping that someone will stand up and kill Dong Thief and take the dynasty as a righteous platform!" ”

Lu Bu knew that Zang Hong was selfless in his heart, and he simply wanted to save the imperial court, so he patiently explained to Zang Hong: "It's not that I don't want to stand up, but even if I stand up, others won't follow me, and with the more than 20,000 soldiers and horses under my command, I can't compete head-on with the 100,000 Xiliang soldiers and horses under Dong Zhuo's command!" Now that the north is deeply affected by the Hu people, it is not easy for me to maintain the situation of the state, if I rashly lead the army to attack Luoyang, once the news of the defeat spreads, it will be the day of the complete fall of the state! ”

Lu Bu's words were very subtle, but Zang Hong's mind naturally understood it. Lu Bu did not blame and ridicule the results of the Sour Jujube Alliance and the Zhangshui Alliance, but in fact, the Sour Jujube Alliance had completely collapsed, and Yuan Shao was now busy snatching Han Fu's military power and chassis, and he was not really dealing with Dong Zhuo at all.

The characters who participated in the Sour Jujube League and the Zhangshui Alliance had a much higher reputation and status than Lu Bu at the beginning, and they couldn't do it, you let Lu Bu bear it alone, isn't it difficult for a strong man? What's more, the problem of the Hu people in the north of Bingzhou mentioned by Lu Bu is not an exaggeration, if it weren't for Lu Bu's strength, I don't know what the current Bingzhou would become.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade Lu Bu, Zang Hong sighed and said, "Actually, I didn't have much hope when I came to you this time. Judging from your actions after leaving Luoyang, you have different ideas from others, and I still can't understand what you want to do! ”

Lu Bu is worried about the selection of the Hanoi Taishou, and it is a bit of a waste to let Sima Fang serve as the Hanoi Taishou, after all, Sima Fang has done Luoyang Ling and Henan Yin. When Dong Zhuo returned to Guanzhong with his soldiers and horses, the huge Luoyang region would have to rely on powerful figures like Sima Fang to manage it.

Now, Zang Hong, who is not afraid of death and has the ability, suddenly arrived, but he had a bold idea.

Lü Bu told Zang Hong: "I can't stay in Hanoi for long, because the Hu people in the north will go south to harass them in the cold winter, and these cavalry under my command need the north to fight against the Hu people." Hanoi is now in tatters and is in dire need of a man of merit to govern it. I think Brother Ziyuan is brave and knowledgeable, and he is the best candidate to serve as the Taishou of Hanoi, please don't refuse! ”

Zang Hong told Lu Bu with some hesitation: "After I met you, I also plan to go north to contact Youzhou Mu Liu Bo'an (Liu Yu Zi Bo'an), I heard that he can gather 100,000 troops, if you can say that he can send troops, it will be much easier to deal with Dong Zhuo." ”

Lu Bu dissuaded Zang Hong and said: "Brother Ziyuan, don't hide it, Liu Yu's soldiers and horses are now controlled by Gongsun Zhan, and Gongsun Zhan has already come to Jizhou, and he and Yuan Shao are plotting against Han Fu. Do you think that with the current situation, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan will let you go to see Liu Yu, who is difficult to protect? ”

When Zang Hong heard that Liu Yu himself was in danger, he immediately stood up in shock. "Fengxian, Liu Bo'an guarded Youzhou as a politician and was lenient, pacifying the people, and won the hearts of the people, plus he is a descendant of the clan, you must not let Gongsun Chan harm his life!"

Lu Bu nodded and said solemnly: "This is also the reason why I want to entrust Hanoi to you, I can rest assured that you are in Hanoi." When I return to Bingzhou, I will immediately send someone to Youzhou to contact Liu Yu and form an alliance with him, and if Gongsun Chan is unfavorable to Liu Yu at that time, I will definitely not let him go! ”
