Chapter Twenty-Eight: Laying the Foundation for Taishan County
At this time, Luoyang experienced two burnings and finally fell lonely......
This night, the raging fire was like a dream, like an illusion, and all this was more like a movie for the people of Luoyang. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
For the elderly, this is the place where their ancestors have lived for generations, it is a lifelong memory, for the middle-aged people, this is the place where they have struggled for most of their lives, and it is also a memory that they gradually forgot when they were children, and for young and ignorant children, this is just a picture in the childhood memory that will be forgotten...... The fire burning on the edge of the house slowly extinguished, and when the Kwantung coalition army marched to Luoyang, their faces changed.
Just look at this Luoyang, the city is full of ruins, and the people in the city who can't run on the streets have become corpses, and there are countless people.
The city was scorching, and even the wind was scorching.
Let's say that Sun Jian led the army to Luoyang, looking at the red flames in the distance, black smoke covering the ground, two or three hundred miles, and there were no chickens and dogs.
No, the princes who were full of emotion had no choice but to camp their military horses on the wasteland.
Cao Cao hurriedly saw Yuan Shao and said, "Now the Dong thief is dead, but the rest of the evil coercion is the son of today and the hundred officials, and they can take advantage of the situation to pursue and attack!" At this moment, the original troops are not moving, why not?! ā
Yuan Shao became the lord of the alliance, and his heart became more and more proud, and when he heard Cao Cao's words, his face suddenly sank, and he said, "The princes and soldiers are already tired, and it is useless to pursue at this time. ā
Cao Cao said angrily in a deep voice, "The remnants of the Dong thieves burned the palace and robbed the Son of Heaven, and the sea was shaken, and I don't know where to go." At the time of death, the world was decided by a war. Why don't you doubt! ā
The princes looked at Cao Cao, and then at Yuan Shao, and they all said that they could not move lightly.
Cao was furious and said: "The erector is not enough and conspiracy!" ā
Then he led more than 10,000 troops, led Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Li Dian, Le Jin and Yun Sheng, and pursued them in the starry night.
During the chase, I saw Cao Cao sighing secretly, "Sure enough, as Yunsheng said, the armies in the alliance have two hearts!" ā
"So Meng De still goes to Chang'an?" Yun Sheng hesitated for a moment and said, "According to the city's opinion, there will be an ambush army on the road!" ā
When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately showed a smile on his face, and before the words were spoken, there were shouts all around, and the ambush army suddenly killed. It turned out that Jia Xu was worried about the pursuit of the Kwantung Army, so he deliberately left an army to ambush.
Cao Cao is worthy of being a hero, in the eyes of Yunsheng, he is not afraid of danger and commands. Personally go into battle and fight a bloody way with the generals under your command.
After fighting to the death for an hour, Cao Cao escaped, found a place for the soldiers to rest for a day or two, and smiled bitterly at Yun Sheng, "I regret it." Looking at his thousands of men and horses, there were only a thousand people left in a moment, and many others were injured. Cao Cao was very uncomfortable in his heart, you must know that these people were Cao Cao's fellow villagers, and even among the dead were people from the Xiahou clan. (This refers to the side branch of the Xiahou family)
Since he could not pursue, and it was already late at night, after walking back for dozens of miles, Cao Cao ordered to set up camp.
As for the danger, Cao Cao didn't consider it, because Dong Zhuo Yu would not be stupid to this point, and choosing to send troops at this time and retreat to Chang'an was the best choice.
Cao Cao is still the same Cao Cao sees it very clearly.
At this time, in Cao Cao's military tent, Yun Sheng and the others all sat down to listen to where Cao Cao was going next.
"Where does Meng De want to go in the future?" There was silence in the military tent, and Yun Sheng opened his mouth to be the first to break the silence.
Hearing this, Cao Cao glanced up at Yun Sheng, then pointed to a place on the map, and said with a smile: "This is the place where we will live and live in the future." ā
Looking at the place Cao Cao pointed to on the map, Yun Sheng was silent, or as recorded in later generations, Cao Cao finally chose Dongjun as his base.
But in Yunsheng's opinion, although Dongjun is good, it is not the best choice. Yun Sheng's silence was seen by Cao Cao, Cao Cao looked at Yun Sheng with some puzzlement, and asked, "Yun Sheng, why not?" ā
"Meng De, I understand what you mean, but Meng De has ever thought that if we enter Dongjun, it will be equivalent to entering Yanzhou, what do you think about letting Chen Liutai guard Zhang Miao and Yanzhou assassin Liu Dai." Yun Sheng was silent for a moment and replied, "Besides, even if it is Meng De, you are clearing the bandits for Liu Dai, who will believe your intentions." If Liu Dai is guarding everywhere and stumbling from time to time, how can he show his skills in Dongjun! ā
Hearing this, everyone nodded. Indeed, if you think about it, East County is good, but it is not the best place.
Without waiting for Cao Cao to speak, Yun Sheng continued: "According to the city's opinion, Dongjun is adjacent to Chenliu and backed by Jizhou, if Meng De has any achievements and makes people fearful, it will be surrounded by enemies on three sides in the future, and there are too many bandits in Dongjun, which will also cause great losses to our own troops, not to mention that our troops are already insufficient." In my opinion, it is better to choose...."
At this time, Yun Sheng pointed his finger to a place on the map.
"Tarzan County?" Looking in the direction that Yun Sheng pointed, Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, it stands to reason that the geographical location of Taishan County should be even more bad.
Taishan County is backed by Qingzhou, Xuzhou and Yuzhou! These three states, there should be more enemies, how can it become the best place.
"Mengde, although Yuzhou said that the assassin history is Kong Ling, Kong Ling was recommended by Kong Rong, but he is just a person who likes to talk about high theories, so there is no need to worry. Besides, this person is getting old, coupled with the fatigue of these months, I am afraid that it will not work, so that the dragons of Yuzhou have no leader, but Meng De is a person from Yuzhou, and he should have a unique advantage for Yuzhou. Yun Sheng continued to analyze for Cao Cao, "Besides, the Duke of Jugao is still in Hua County, for Meng De, there is a difference between entering Taishan County and entering East County.
As for Qingzhou, it is a borderless land, a place where dragons are mixed, so there is nothing to fear.
Xuzhou, the city is still relatively well understood, Meng De can rest assured, in the past one or two years, Tao Gongzu only needs to pay attention to it.
Tao Gongzu has always been famous for benevolence and righteousness, Meng De and Tao Gongzu have an alliance with him, and crusade against Dong Zhuo, how much strength Meng De has made, the world's scholars can see it clearly, if he attacks the lord at this time, wouldn't he have fallen into the handle!
At least on the bright side, Tao Gongzu didn't dare to make any moves, as for secretly, it was just a small fight, so why should Meng De be afraid! After listening to Yun Sheng's analysis, Cao Cao nodded slightly.
Hearing this, it is true that Taishan County has more obvious advantages than Dongjun County. What's more, Jizhou is strong, if Han Fu wants to go south, with Qingzhou and Shanyang County in front of him, he doesn't have to worry too much.
If Yanzhou Assassin Liu Dai, Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao and others wanted to do something bad to themselves, the bandits of Shanyang County and the Taishou Yuan of Shanyang County became the last barrier.
What's more, it is reported that Zang Xuangao, the Zang Ba of Mount Tai, is in the Kaiyang area of Langya County, occupying the mountain as the king, and gathering people to dominate one side. There is also Xuzhou not only Zang Ba is the one who is the trouble, but also Que Xuan's trouble, if Tao Qian wants to deal with Cao Cao, he must first solve these two people, let these two people be quiet, otherwise how to free up his hands with peace of mind.
Not necessarily, Tao Qian may ask Cao Cao to help suppress Zang Ba and Que Xuan at that time, and it is not known.
