Chapter 453: Zang Ba scolded the formation, and Tao was rampant
All kinds of legends about Qin Xu are not uncommon on the ground in Xuzhou. This year is also advocating heroes, as the Danyang soldiers who once guarded the first army of Xuzhou, for the former top boss of their own family, the deeds of collecting yellow scarves, breaking Kan Xuan, getting Xuzhou, saving the Son of Heaven, and striking the Xiliang thieves to lead Xuzhou with the title of marquis, are also familiar with the spread of people with hearts.
What's more, many Danyang soldiers in Guangling City had also personally experienced the battles with the Yuan clan of the Zhong family and the Sun clan of Jiangdong with Qin Xu, so as soon as Qin Xu's honor guard arrived, he had not yet made any moves, which caused some turmoil among the Danyang rebels in Guangling City.
In fact, Qin Xu is also extremely good to Danyang Bing. At the time of Xiapi, the military supplies were all based on the standards of the soldiers of the two battalions of flying cavalry and Xiao cavalry in the front-line battle sequence of the Lu Bu Army in Qingzhou; Moreover, Cao Bao, the commander of the Danyang soldiers at that time, was really thinking about his cheap son-in-law, and there was no unprecedented, so that the Danyang soldiers actually got more than double the military salary and grain in their hands than Tao Qian gave before. This has also become the reason why the pottery merchants took Tao Qian's Danyang soldier talisman, and only deceived a small number of Danyang soldiers who paid great attention to the relationship between villagers and neighbors to defect to Xiapi. In this year, the world was in turmoil, and the soldiers were just eating food, and the matter of revenge had a benchmark in each person's heart.
"Brother Tao, lordship...... Oh no, Qin ...... Xuzhou is playing a full guard of honor, and it is only less than the county seat of Guangling...... Ten miles! "The news that Qin Xu led his troops to come here was finally discovered by the Danyang soldiers who were guarding the city wall, and they almost rushed to this scene in front of Tao Gan, who rebelled against all the Danyang soldiers in one fell swoop.
"What...... What the? Qin ...... Qin Xu is here! How long has it been? Tao Gan, who was drinking in the Guangling Taishou Mansion that originally belonged to Chen Deng, threw the wine in his hand far away. A pair of eyes stared directly at the Danyang military captain who came to report the news, and asked in disbelief.
"Yes, it's true! Qingzhou soldiers all over the mountains. I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of people, Brother Tao, you should think of a way! "This Danyang military captain has a little stammering in his tongue! It was hard for Tao Gen to believe that the famous ruthless character in the army in front of him had killed more than ten soldiers with the strength of one person during the battle against Yuan Shu, and was promoted to the captain of the Danyang Military Academy because of his merits. would be so afraid of such a "weak" person as Qin Xu. But what Tao Gan didn't find was even himself. After hearing the news that Qin Xu had arrived, and that he had not been discovered until he was ten miles away from Guangling City, his actions and demeanor were also a little panicked, and he couldn't even hold the wine buds in his hand.
"What are you afraid of! Didn't he Qin Xu say it when he was sitting in Xuzhou? Where Xuzhou soldiers. Feel free to stay! Never force it! Now that Danyang's hometown has been repeatedly hit by military disasters, it is urgent for us to return to the army to defend it, even if it is a big day, with his Qin Xu's previous words, there is no way to help me at all, unless he Qin someone thinks that he is talking back, yes...... He's a capricious villain! Tao Yan forcibly suppressed the panic on his face, made an indifferent look and said, "Say it again." Don't we still have the trump card of Cao Bao? Although this Cao Bao has no skills, he is also Lu Bu's father-in-law. Qin Xu, as Lu Bu's son-in-law, how can he have no scruples? Week...... Ahem, haven't you heard anyone say it, this is called a rat bogey! Qin Xu didn't dare to come nonsense, otherwise there would not be ten miles to play the honor guard of Xuzhou Thorn History, this is ...... Right! It's his own heart! ”
"Yes......" I don't know if the reason in Tao Gan's words moved the Danyang military captain, or he listened to Tao Gan's words at the beginning, coupled with the tragic situation that some people spread that Danyang County was destroyed by Yuan Shu and now there is no more than one of the ten households, which aroused the soft place of these Danyang soldiers who have a deep-rooted concept of kinship and nostalgia.
Danyang soldiers are one of the veteran elite soldiers in the world, and Tao Qian is determined by the five counties of Xuzhou, and there is no need to say much about the combat power. Although this time he was "forced" to turn against the previous master, the current enemy also showed the demeanor of the elite soldiers of Danyang who once shook the world. Under Tao Gan's order, the whole city of Guangling County was under martial law, except for leaving 2,000 soldiers to stick to the small city wall of Guangling County, almost the first time the whole army was dispatched and set up a position outside the city.
After all, they have been on business with the Qingzhou soldiers for more than a year, although there is not much intersection between the two armies on weekdays, but from the actions of the Danyang soldiers, it can also be seen that the current "leader" of the Danyang soldiers, Tao Gan, still has some understanding of the Qingzhou soldiers' tactics. The small walls of Guangling County are thin, which is not conducive to holding at all, and if you hoard troops in the city, although the number of soldiers far exceeds that of Qingzhou soldiers, it is also tantamount to tying your hands and feet, leveling the gap between the Qingzhou soldiers and the Danyang soldiers who are inferior in numbers.
Tao Gan's idea is very good, and his tactics are also correct, but he overestimated the face of Danyang soldiers. Although these Danyang soldiers have already pulled the flag and rebelled, after all, they also nominally ate Qin Xu's two-year soldier rations, and it can be seen from the fact that they refused to harm Guangling County, in fact, these Danyang rebels actually still have some guilt, until they can see Qin Xu's anvil from a distance, they reluctantly set up a position on the vast plain outside Guangling County, obviously against Qin Xu's Qingzhou soldiers, the overall morale of the Danyang soldiers is not very high.
"A certain Danyang Tao Gan! Xi is the head of the Danyang soldiers, please ask Qin Envoy Jun to step forward and answer! "Tao Gen still has some means. Otherwise, he would not have been able to be elected as the "temporary" leader of the Danyang soldiers. Seeing that the number of Danyang soldiers who accounted for the vast majority of the people and were also sending troops from the city to the two wings was gradually increasing, the previous apprehension in my heart was gradually replaced by a strange feeling. Tao Qian, as Tao Qian's relative, also has some understanding of how Qin Xu led Xuzhou back then. In Tao Gan's view, the reason why Tao Qian was forced to exchange the land of Xuzhou for the Tao clan's peace was to a large extent because of Yuan Shu's army pressure and the lack of his own troops, which made Qin Xu take advantage. Think about it carefully, if it is really about combat power, the Danyang soldiers, who are veteran elite soldiers in the world, may not be weaker than these troops not long after. Before, it was just a group of Qingzhou soldiers who were born as thieves. Moreover, the situation today is very similar to the situation today. It's just that now the person with the advantage in strength has been replaced by him Tao Gan, as long as Qin Xu can suffer even a small loss here, even if he can't reproduce the prestige of the Tao clan in Xuzhou back then, it can also "help" his Tao Gen development to a large extent. Whoever has the bigger fist in these years will have the higher the initiative in the right to speak, and maybe the "one" behind him. After seeing his "ability", he may return Xuzhou to the control of the Tao clan. After all, the foundation of "that one" is in Koto, in a short time. may not have the strength and ability to stretch his hand too far, let alone confront Lu Bu head-on. And this is his chance. After all, he was born in a big family, and Tao Yan had the confidence to have tens of thousands of Danyang soldiers in his hands. It may not be afraid of anyone to go. As long as he can occupy Xuzhou, which supplies blood to Qingzhou, before the news says that Lu Bu, who was "trapped" in Jizhou, returns to the army, who can deny that there may not be a share of him in this world?
Otherwise, if you don't die, you won't die. After Tao Yan was startled by this thought in his heart at first, he felt more and more that his idea was very "reasonable". The more I thought about it, the more itchy it became, and when facing the approach of Qin Xu's army, it was not as bottomless as before. Thinking of Qin Xu after all, he still had scruples in his own hands, Tao Yan calculated that Qin Xu would never dare to do anything to himself before he got the letter of Cao Bao's life and death. As soon as this thought sounded, Tao Yan suddenly felt bold. Directly called the formation and asked Qin Xu to come out and answer.
"It's kind of interesting!" Qin Xu tilted his head and said to Zang Ba. Tao Gan's call made Qin Xu feel a little novel. I thought about the situation that I would encounter when I saw the Danyang soldiers again, but I didn't expect that Tao Gan, who called himself the "leader" of the Danyang soldiers, would have such a strange move, and he actually let himself come forward to answer directly. Qin Xu regretted it for a moment, why did he let Cao Xuan take away all the archers he had trained. Even if there is one person here, I can't say that if I shoot an arrow at this stupid bold who dares to stand alone in front of the battle, then things will be much easier.
"Didn't Qin Envoy have the courage to step forward and answer?" Tao Gan saw that he shouted for a long time, but he just silently watched the Qingzhou soldiers on his side, and no one answered, the hesitation in his heart flashed, but he shouted with more arrogance. The momentum of smugness was that many of the Danyang soldiers behind him showed disdain.
The son of the daughter can't sit down, and most of the so-called fighting generals exist in the usual bragging, which is not often seen in front of the two armies, not to mention, everyone knows that Qin Xu, the assassin of Xuzhou, is a weak person, where can there be such a reason to answer the battle blindly. didn't even understand this bit of common sense, so he was ashamed to claim to be the leader of the Danyang soldiers, and the other people who were fellow villagers in Danyang all felt blushing at this moment.
The pretentious Tao Yan laughed wildly for a while when both armies were silent, and no one answered, and he also felt a hint of disharmony. Although it is strange that the Qingzhou soldiers did not attack immediately, it did not make Tao Yan feel anything abnormal, after all, the number of soldiers on his own side is more than half more, and Qin Xu has been cautious for a long time, although there have not been many battles since he led the army, he has not tasted a single defeat, and he must have scruples, but he has not said it; But the same is true of the nominal soldiers under his own command, but it makes Tao Yan a little embarrassed. As early as before, when the captain of the Danyang Military Academy came to report that Qin Xu's soldiers were here, Tao Yan clearly felt that the morale of these comrades who had rebelled at the beginning was not very high after the news of Qin Xu's army had arrived. Tao Yan understood that many Danyang soldiers still had a trace of guilt for Qin Xu, who had not done anything sorry for them. But in Tao Gan's mind, no matter what, as long as the two armies face each other and the war starts, it will be a life-and-death struggle, and there will be no other ideas, which is why Tao Gen dared to use words to provoke as soon as he came up, but looking at the current situation, the effect does not seem to be very ideal.
"Where is the rabid dog barking here, and report the name in human words to your Uncle Zang?" When Tao Gen couldn't advance or retreat, and suddenly felt that he couldn't come to the stage, a voice in the Qingzhou army was very "kind" to relieve Tao Gen, although the verbal ridicule almost made Tao Gen not come up in one breath, but after all, it also broke the scene of the one-man show, so that Tao Gen would not be so embarrassed and embarrassed to play the clown.
"Zang Ba thief is so daring! You are just a thief from Taishan, and you are in charge of an army with the power of your father's clan, what face do you have to answer in front of our generals! Called Qin Envoy...... cough, Qin Xu came up to answer! "For a few deputy commanders of the Qingzhou soldiers who are often in Xuzhou. Tao Gen naturally knew it, and Tao Gen could confirm that Zang Ba must know himself. After all, Danyang Bing was Tao Qian's private soldier before. After the Tao merchant abducted more than one-third of the Danyang soldiers for Yuan Shu, Cao Bao, the commander of the Danyang soldiers, also noticed the special status of the Tao clan in the Danyang soldiers, and after Cao Bao realized that he was reappointed by Lu Bu as the commander of the Danyang soldiers, because of the previous events, the ability to control the Danyang soldiers decreased a lot, and after several times of helplessness, Tao Gan and other Tao clans who were relatively "stable" before were mentioned to a higher position to consolidate their influence on the Danyang soldiers. Before that, Zang Ba had "replaced" Cao Bao for a period of time in charge of the Danyang soldiers. How could he not know that he had already influenced a lot in the Danyang soldiers at that time.
"Tsk...... Why is this dog's barking getting more and more harsh! The world's famous elite soldiers Danyang Zhong, how did such a thing come out? If such a righteous person as the former Xuzhou Mu Tao Gong knew that there was such a scourge in his clan that affected his hard governance of Xuzhou. I don't know if I'll talk to you in detail at night! Zang Ba slowly pulled his horse out of the formation, and said lightly.
Tao Gan's intention was to provoke Zang Ba, as long as Zang Ba couldn't help but fire the first knife first, then even the Danyang soldiers behind him would feel guilty about Qin Xu. Then he had to fight with the Qingzhou soldiers in order to protect himself. Then the purpose of Tao Gen has been achieved. Unexpectedly, Zang Ba didn't take Tao Gan's provocative words seriously at all. In fact, Tao Gan really picked the wrong place to say this, if he said this in front of Lu Bu's front-line battle sequence, he couldn't say that Zang Ba would really be on fire. But the current situation is that if you talk about your previous background, the 15,000 Qingzhou soldiers present were born as real Yellow Turban soldiers before, and they were serious Yellow Turban thieves; and then rely on the majesty of the father. It doesn't play much role in Zang Ba. Although everyone knows that Qin Xu, the chief officer here, has completely relied on a few military exploits to get here, after all, there is a father-in-law who is known as the world's number one fierce general and has only one daughter. It is estimated that the title of nepotism will not be taken off in this life no matter what. General Qin doesn't care, and although his Zang Ba's father is the number one person in the Qingzhou government department, but after all, the official position is just a Qingzhou Sima, and his rank is only a thousand stones, strictly speaking, compared to his high-ranking deputy commander of the Qingzhou soldiers, Qin Xu specially went to the "imperial court" to seal a level lower than the cavalry captain of two thousand stones, Zang Ba still wants someone to come up with things from time to time, how can he listen to Tao Gan's words that are obviously praise in his ears as scolding?
"Humph! Could it be that Qin Xu's subordinates are all Xiang Er and other people with strange skin? Do you have the courage to fight a battle? Seeing that Zang Ba looked like he was smiling, Tao Yan only felt as if he had punched cotton with a punch, empty and tight. simply tore his face and called for the battle directly, just hoping that Zang Ba could respond immediately, then he would be done.
"Is there still a faceless person like you in the world?" Unexpectedly, Zang Ba was not fooled at all, as if the army behind him was not bringing the war, or he ignored Tao Gan's provocation, but seemed to be Tao Gan's words, and aroused his interest in scolding, pointing to the Danyang army array that was several times larger than himself on the opposite side, and scolded: "Previously, Tao Xuzhou, adhering to the righteousness, clearly gave Xuzhou to Qin Envoy, the world knows!" As Tao Xuzhou's pro-army, you don't obey the lord's will, how can you say it? Qin envoy Jun has the merit of saving the driver, the emperor of the Han Dynasty personally sealed the Xuzhou assassin history, the general of the expedition to the east, and the four states of Qing, Xu, Henan, and Yang, you don't listen to the order, and raise troops without authorization, how can you be loyal? Since Qin Zhijun took over Xuzhou, has the food and salary of the soldiers been less than yours? Military armor equipment, may have deducted you a little, and you are holding Xuzhou's Yulu, holding Xuzhou weapons, and then turning around to disturb Xuzhou, and now it is a soldier pointing to the benefactor, what is benevolence? When Qin heard that there was chaos in Jiangdong, he traveled thousands of miles away from Jizhou to the general to quell the chaos and rescue your hometown, but you listened to the words of the villain, privately detained the officials of the army, rebelled and rebelled, and hindered the hometown fathers and elders who were suffering from ambition and poison. Danyang elite soldiers? Hum! What a Danyang elite soldier! Having a dog knows better than you know how to repay the favor! If it weren't for Qin Envoy Jun telling us and other Qingzhou barracks generals several times that you were just deceived by the gangsters, intending to provoke the hatred between Xuzhou and Yangzhou, you mistakenly obeyed the bandits. And allow you, a thief who has fallen into unrighteousness, to bark here! Phew! ”
If you talk about scolding, Zang Hong has been beaten with a stick to read before, and when he was in the market, he had "colluded" with the Taishan thieves Ranger Zang Ba, how could he be afraid of Tao Gan, who was born in a big family, a few words came out, and Tao Gan was almost blocked speechless, and the Danyang soldiers who were a little angry because of the fierce Qingzhou soldiers before, at this moment, there are also many people who are indignant and have their heads.
"Humph! Zang Ba! You're going to have to talk about it here! Do you dare to fight with a certain one? Tao Gen naturally saw the scene in his own military situation, and his heart was also sudden, but he didn't expect it to look like five big and three coarse, I heard that Zang Ba, who was born as a thief in Taishan, actually has such a good eloquence, Tao Gen is also afraid of letting Zang Ba say this, I can't say that there will really be a lot of Danyang soldiers with a clear conscience who were moved by Zang Ba, raised a long sword in his hand, and roared and pointed at Zang Ba and said.
"Huh?" Zang Ba really didn't expect that Tao Gan would fish out the real fire in a few words without saying anything. But the problem is that the "things" explained by Qin Xu have not yet been completed, where would Tao Yan provoke a war between the two armies so easily. And Zang Ba stared at Tao Yan with a pair of contemptuous eyes, muttering in his heart. Suddenly, I saw Guangling City behind the Danyang rebels, and at some point, a surge of smoke came out, and there was also a commotion in the rear of the Danyang army formation.
"Ahh Not good! Tao Yan naturally noticed the abnormality of his army, and looked back at the servant, but his eyes widened violently, his mouth screamed, and the long sword in his hand almost fell to the ground. In Guangling County, the place where the long smoke rises straight up because there is no wind is exactly the place where Cao Bao, the old man of Lu Bu, is imprisoned the biggest reliance on his Tao to save his life this time! (To be continued......)
