Chapter 503: Reinforcements to Dongwuyang to get out of trouble
Suddenly, the Yellow Turban army besieging the city was in disarray, and the rear army had been torn open by the cavalry, and the Yellow Turban army was killed and scattered and fled. Cao Cao www.biquge.info Cao Cao saw it really above the city, and he laughed and said: "Li Yiguo is a trustworthy person, and I don't have to worry about Dongwuyang!" ”
Cao Cao urgently ordered Cao Ren to lead a thousand cavalry to rush out of the city, and the three armies of Zhao Yun, Hua Xiong, and Cao Ren attacked inside and out, killing the Yellow Turban Army and defeating it. Cao Cao's soldiers and horses suffered heavy casualties, and in order to regain the lost territory, he could only recruit prisoners to form a new army.
The battle of Dongwuyang made Cao Jun's prestige great, basically reversed the situation, Zhao Yun did not dare to stay longer, he and Cao Cao resigned, and then rushed back to Zhending with Huaxiong day and night.
Yu Bing, Zhang Ying, Li Yi and others handed over the copper coins exchanged for them to the Montenegrin Army along with some gold, silver and jewelry, and Li Damu said goodbye to Li Yi and others and escorted the money and property away.
Seeing that everything was over, Zhang Yingcai said: "Yuan Shao is narrow-minded, and when he saw us passing, he refused to let us pass easily." My brother ordered Zhao Yun to go south alone, and he was bound to become the target of Yuan Shao's interception, but after Hua Xiong left, Yuan Shao wanted to find trouble with us again, so we can't stay in Zhending and wait for Yuan Shao to act arbitrarily! ”
After listening to Zhang Ying's analysis, Yu Bing and Li Yi suddenly realized, and the two nodded frequently, agreeing with Zhang Ying's opinion. Fan Chan also realized a little: "Yuan Shao suddenly retreated after attacking, indicating that he has noticed the movement of our army, and if our army does not move, it will be passive!" ”
Zhang Ying looked at Fan Chan with appreciative eyes, and said in her heart: At her young age, it is extremely rare to be able to think of this layer. After thinking about it, Zhang Ying smiled and said: "Chan'er is right, there are many capable people in Yuan Shaojun, so we must not have the slightest slack!" Therefore, I think we should temporarily retreat to the north, and when Zhao Yun and Huaxiong return, we will lead the troops south, as long as our two armies succeed in meeting, Yuan Shao will not be able to wait! ”
Fan Chan nodded and said: "We attracted Yuan Jun, so we reduced the pressure on the two generals Zhao and Hua, I don't know if Yuan Shao can be as I expected?" ”
Zhang Ying looked into the distance and said: "It is a taboo for soldiers that our army is trapped in the enemy's territory, and now the strength of the army is weak, and it is even more dangerous. As the saying goes: 'It is up to man to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen.' As long as we do our work well, we are not afraid that he will not follow, but as a last resort, we must avoid clashes with Yuan Jun! ”
Li Yi and the others had finished their calculations, and the army left Zhending and slowly moved towards Xinshi. When Li Yijun walked to one place, he couldn't forget to open the treasure chest and exchange jewelry, jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings for copper coins, and the more crowded the place, the more he had to reveal the huge treasure.
Yuan Shao found out that Li Yijun's withdrawal was really determined, so he convened the civil and military forces to discuss countermeasures. The opinions of Yuan Shao's Wenchen generals were seriously divided, and Tian Feng advocated abandoning the pursuit of Li Yi and concentrating on deploying troops and horses to ambush Zhao Yun to rescue Cao Cao.
However, he thought that Li Yijun would not abandon Zhao Yun and Hua Xiong and ignore them, he was just going around in circles, and he would eventually merge with them, so he advocated attacking Li Yi on the way to return to the army!
Guo Tu suggested that this opportunity must not be abandoned, and hoped that Yuan Shao would concentrate his forces on Li Yi's army, and wait for the arrival of the remaining allied forces before launching an attack on Li Yi's army.
Xin Bi, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou thought that Guo Tu's strategy was the best, and the other Wenchen generals expressed their opinions, so everyone quarreled and quarreled for a long time. Yuan Shao has always been indecisive, and in the noise of everyone, he has long lost his mind, he was upset, and dismissed the civil and military forces in a fit of anger.
The next day, the strategists again argued, because everyone held their own opinions, when they were fighting for each other, the news of Li Yijun's large-scale exchange of gold and silver reached the ears of everyone, and Xu You, who was greedy for money, changed his opinion and turned the rudder to Guo Tu's side. Next, all the generals unanimously agreed to pursue immediately, wanting to make a windfall after defeating Li Yi. And some civil officials also wanted a piece of the pie, so they also fell to Guo Tu's side.
Although Tian Feng and Fu Zhixiao fought for righteousness and reason, few people agreed with their ideas. At this time, not only did the civil and military forces who were in favor of the pursuit have an overwhelming advantage, but Yuan Shao, as the lord, was also moved, Yuan Shao had originally heard rumors that Li Yi had intercepted Dong Zhuo's treasure, but he didn't know the quantity, and he was from a family, so he laughed at it. But now that the businessmen have seen it with their own eyes, it is rumored that there are thousands of boxes of Li Yi's treasures, and Yuan Shao is of course blushing when he hears it, so he has the idea of making a big profit.
Yuan Shao passed the order, the deployment of troops was busy for a while, Zhang Miao and Yuan Yi led the army to arrive one after another, Zhang Miao was reluctant to send troops, but he had a good friendship with Yuan Shao, so he had to pinch his nose and send troops to help. Zhang Miao knew that he was not Li Yi's opponent, so he was only ready to go on a trip at the beginning, and returned Yuan Shao's friendship. But now that it is profitable to hear, it has changed its original mind. Yuan Yi is also a mediocre person, and he had to help when he was invited by his younger brother, and now he learned that he could get some oil and water, so he followed Yuan Shaojun to join hands in the army, and the three armies went out to chase Li Yi relentlessly.
Zhang Ying saw that Yuan Shao and the others really hit the plan, and in order to whet the appetite of the pursuers, he personally led the rear army to control the speed of the march and keep a certain distance from the pursuers.
Yuan Shao, Zhang Miao, Yuan Yi and other generals, although they were in an urgent mood, they did not have many cavalry, and they did not dare to use cavalry to fight hard with the enemy. At this time, Zhang Chaojun had also joined, and the chasing soldiers had exceeded 100,000, and the momentum was very huge.
Li Yi's army marched to the west of Zishui, and Zhang Ying suddenly gave an order, and the army turned south along Zishui. There was a rapid march, and the pursuers had been thrown out of the day's journey. Walking to the side of Wuji, Zhang Ying ordered to camp on the spot and instructed Li Meng to strictly guard the camp. After releasing scouts to investigate, Zhang Ying breathed a sigh of relief and said to Li Yi and the others: "We can finally visit our old friends, but in order to prevent Yuan Shao from causing trouble to the Zhen family, it is not easy for us to blatantly enter the city!" ”
Everyone felt that what Zhang Ying said was good, so they disguised themselves, and Li Yi, Zhang Ying, Yu Bing, Fan Chan, and Cao Jing crossed the water and rushed to Wuji Zhen's house.
It has been more than two years since Wuji sent troops, and the Zhen family has undergone great changes, because the power of the Zhen family is getting bigger and bigger, Zhen Yan has been justifiably promoted to filial piety and became the parent official of Wuji County. Although Zhen Yi is close to the age of six, he has two concubines, and now he is one wife and six concubines. After all, he is not forgiving at his age, although there are seven women on his side, he has not been able to add another man and half a woman to Zhen Yi. (To be continued.) )
