Chapter Twenty-Seven: Yingchuan Taishou Li Man

Yuan Shu walked away in a gloomy manner, instead of wasting time with Chen Lin here, it was better to go back and see how the Bishui Pass was doing, this was Yuan Shu's idea. Chen Lin waited until Yuan Shu's army completely disappeared from view before turning around, and said to Wu Kuang in a loud voice: "General." Wu Kuang knew and was interested at this time, what was his situation, such as today's chaos, the princes rose together, Chen Lin was too guarded, Wu Kuang was already planning to take refuge in Chen Lin. Therefore, when he heard Chen Lin still call himself a general, Wu Kuang hurriedly knelt down: "My lord, this time is different from the past, Kuang is willing to follow your lord for life, and the lord is above, and Kuang will bow down." Jia Xu and the others were very happy, and they couldn't help but praise Wu Kuang for being so knowledgeable. When Chen Lin saw it, he also laughed and laughed, and hurriedly helped Wu Kuang up: "I have a certain Sir to help, I am very lucky." Chen Lin immediately appointed Wu Kuang as the Sima of the Hanzhong Army, and led an army by himself, and Wu Kuang's old department naturally became Wu Kuang's subordinate. Chen Lin glanced at the more than 3,000 Dong troops who had removed Wu Kuang's old troops, thought for a while, and said to Wu Kuang: "Sir, these more than 3,000 soldiers and horses are temporarily led by a certain person and form an army of their own, what does Sir think?" Wu Kuang understands the righteousness, knowing that he has led an army alone, it is said that Gao Shun is the one who leads the most troops in Hanzhong now, and the others are not the upper limit of 1,200, Wu Kuang hurriedly said: "But it depends on the arrangement of the lord." ”

After finishing it, Chen Lin asked why Wu Kuang was able to come to Bishui Pass, Wu Kuang: "Lord, Kuang was able to come to Bishui Pass this time, but it was Lord Sikong Yang who made a plan." Speaking of Yang Biao, Chen Lin couldn't help but think of Yang Cilai, although Chen Lin was a disciple of Yang Ci, but he was not very familiar with the rest of the Yang family, and learned that Yang Biao now had to cooperate with Dong Zhuo in order to protect the family, Chen Lin felt a sigh of emotion in his heart.

Chen Lin was naturally happy to have thousands of soldiers and horses, but now the problem of grain and grass has also become a major problem for the Hanzhong army. There is not much savings in Xingyang City, the first thing that comes to mind is naturally Jia Xu, Jia Xu said to Chen Lin: "Lord, now our army has added thousands of strong soldiers, but grain and grass have become a problem, according to the number of troops now, our army's grain and grass are less than ten days." Chen Lin raised his head, thought for a while, and said: "Our army is a member of the allied army, so it is better to ask the alliance for grain and grass." Jia Xu said: "Not to mention the relationship between our army and Yuan Benchu now, even if he is willing to give, he has to have it, Lu Fengxian burned most of the allied army grain and grass before, and the situation of more than 100,000 troops is now only as good as ours, after all, our army intercepted part of the grain and grass of the Dong army in Xingyang." ”

What Jia Xu said is also the truth, Chen Lin also understands in his heart that in ten days, the reason why Yuan Shao rushed to attack the city, in addition to avenging the Yuan family, grain and grass are also a big reason, Yuan Shao wants to break through the Bishui Pass before the grain is broken, so that he can take Luoyang directly. Luoyang didn't know how much grain and grass the Han had hoarded, and it was definitely not a problem to feed the allies. Originally, the grain and grass of the allied army were supplied by Nanyang and Jizhou, but no matter how rich the place was, it could not support more than 100,000 people every day.

Chen Lin knew that the Allied forces were still attacking Bishui Pass, so he couldn't help but think about food and grass here comfortably, if the Hanzhong army did not appear in Bishui Pass again, I am afraid it would be true. So Chen Lin immediately ordered, all the departments immediately returned to the army Bishui Pass, for the thousands of troops who had just surrendered, Chen Lin was not at ease, Wu Kuang's department and Wu Kuang pressed, there should be no problem, but the other three thousand Chen Lin could not guarantee, so he only ordered these three thousand people to be at the end, and secretly summoned Gao Shun and Chen Ze, asking them to be careful to guard against the newly surrendered soldiers and horses. Now the Hanzhong army except for the camp and the wolf cavalry, the other departments are more than half of the casualties, Yang Ren and other subordinates are now only five or six hundred, Chen Lin thought to himself that after a few days, these newly surrendered soldiers and horses will be stabilized, and then they will be distributed to the generals one by one to fill the establishment.

Bishui Pass, Hu Zhen was shocked and Hua Xiong was beheaded by Sun Jian, and saw Yuan Shao's army attacking, Hu Zhen and Xu Rong were unwilling to take the risk of being taken advantage of the opportunity to capture Bishui Pass, and the defeated and fleeing Dong Jun had not yet run back to the general situation, there were still thousands of people and horses crowded at the gate, Hu Zhen decisively ordered the door to be closed. There were five or six thousand soldiers and horses blocked by Hu Zhen outside the pass, and the soldiers under the gate kept shouting at the city, but Hu Zhen didn't hear it. Over there, Yuan Shao commanded the allied forces to come over with a rainbow of momentum, and these thousands of Dong troops were only afraid of being more auspicious. Sun Jian attacked with the army, and when he saw Hu Zhen closing the city gate, he couldn't help but have a new understanding of Hu Zhen's ruthlessness. In fact, Hu Zhen didn't want to do this, the shouting and crying of his own soldiers in the city was not a little bit of a blow to the morale of the Dong army in the city, but Hu Zhen had no choice, and he could only blame the dead Hua Xiong.

The fate of thousands of Dong troops under the city of Bishui Pass can be imagined, although hundreds of thousands of allied troops cannot be squeezed in at one time, but the dense army instantly killed none of these thousands of Dong troops. When the Allied army rushed to the city, it was hit by Hu Zhen's fierce bow and arrow, and the Allied army attacked the city, and the fierce defense of the city began on the Bishui Pass. It is said that Bishui Pass is the first male pass in the world, but it is not a lie, a short section of the wall, Hu Zhen only used more than 10,000 soldiers in the city, and then blocked the allied army, and the allied army attacked the key to the fortification, but could only suffer heavy casualties. In the end, all the shepherds were unwilling to let their soldiers line up, and they all wanted to hide behind others, Yuan Shao was not stupid, but he couldn't do anything, after his own Bohai Navy was killed and wounded, Yuan Shao didn't pretend to say: "Today, more than 20,000 Dong troops were killed, and the army was tired, so it was better to collect the troops." The rushing hundreds of thousands of allied troops retreated like flowing water.

When Chen Lin returned to Guanxia, he happened to encounter Yuan Shao's withdrawal of troops, and without much to say, Chen Lin also slowly retreated with the army. After returning to the camp, he naturally set up a banquet for Wu Kuang that night, which was the Hanzhong army's own business, and outsiders only knew that the Hanzhong camp had been making trouble for a night. On the second day, the scout rushed to report: "Lord Yu, after the allied camp, there is a new army, there are four or five thousand people, it is said that it is Yingchuan Taishou, and now it is stationed in a battalion with the Changsha army." ”

Chen Lin was strange, for this Yingchuan Taishou, Chen Lin only knew that his name was Li Man, and he didn't even understand the words. Jia Xu said loudly: "It is said that this Yingchuan Taishou and Sun Taishou have an old relationship, and it is not surprising that the Yingchuan army later joined forces with the Changsha army. Chen Lin said in his heart, so that's the case. As soon as he finished speaking, another report came: "My lord, General Han, a subordinate of Changsha Taishou outside the camp, asks to see you." "Han Dang? Chen Lin hurriedly ordered someone to take him in, and sure enough, it was Han Dang, only to see Han Dang: "Meet Lord Taishou." Chen Lin and Han Dang are no strangers, and because of Sun Jian, Sun Jian's subordinates are kind to Chen Lin. When Han Dang arrived at this time, Chen Lin was naturally happy and hurriedly laughed. After finishing Han Dangzhengse: "Lord Chen, this time I came here because a certain lord has newly obtained Yingchuan's help, and I know that Lord Chen has not much grain and grass, and a certain lord will send five days of grain and grass to Lord Chen at the end of the special order, just outside the camp, I hope Lord Chen will accept it." ”

Sun Jian sent grain and grass, Chen Lin and the others were all overjoyed, and Chen Lin laughed even more: "Wentai Gaoyi, go back with General Han and thank Wentai in person." Unexpectedly, Han Dang said: "My lord, a certain lord has returned to Chenggao with Li Taishou, and a certain lord feels that this Bishui Pass cannot accommodate more than 100,000 allied troops, so it is better to attack the east of the river from the north of the Yellow River. ”

Chen Lin was taken aback again, Sun Jian left, and went from Hanoi to attack Hedong? If you want to enter Hedong from Hanoi, you must first pass through the pass. Sending Han Dang away, Chen Lin discussed with the generals, Jia Xu said: "Sun Taishou is only afraid that he will be disappointed in the allies, but the army of more than 100,000 has done nothing, Sun Taishou crossed the Yellow River in the north, indicating that this time Yingchuan Taishou did bring a lot of support to Sun Taishou, at least a lot of grain and grass, I didn't think that Sun Taishou could still leave five days of grain and grass for our army, which is also due to the kindness of the lord." "No one will say that Sun Jian is selfish, and he will run away alone when he has grain and grass. It's because Sun Jian really wants to please Dong, but the behavior of the allies makes Sun Jian no longer trust, that's all.

Sun Jian left suddenly, not only Chen Lin was surprised, but also among the allies, the alliance leader Yuan Shao was particularly angry, he came if he wanted to, he could leave if he wanted to, and he didn't take himself as the leader of the alliance at all, Yuan Shao was about to lead his troops to chase Sun Jian, and was persuaded by a group of cronies. The other herdsmen and guards all began to plan in their hearts, and the alliance has been formed for more than two months now, except for the three counties of Xingyang, not even a fart has hurt Dong Zhuo, and even the three counties of Xingyang, although Chen Lin and Sun Jian took the lead in stationing, but everyone knows that this is Dong Zhuo's initiative to withdraw his troops, otherwise even these three counties are not so easy to capture.

Although Hu Zhen blocked the attack of the allies, Hua Xiong died, and Dong Zhuo had to give an explanation, so Hu Zhen had to hurry up and report to Dong Zhuo. Hu Zhen's return was in an uproar in Luoyang, and even Dong Zhuo and Li Ru were shocked, thinking that the situation at Bishui Pass had deteriorated to such a point, and they couldn't imagine that the Guanshui Allied Army was so violent. Dong Zhuo and Li Ru studied overnight what to do. Li Ru: "My lord, the Kwantung coalition army raised troops, it was nothing more than jealousy of the lord's power in Luoyang, and Confucianism dared to assume that if the coalition army entered Luoyang, it would definitely not be able to work together as it is now." At that time, there will definitely be a battle among the Kwantung coalition forces, because everyone wants Luoyang, they all want the one in the palace, the lord, if our army withdraws from Luoyang and returns to Chang'an, the lord has Xiliang as the backing, and when the Kwantung coalition army collapses, and then returns to Luoyang in one fell swoop, there will be no coalition army at that time, as long as there is no coalition army, any shepherd is not the opponent of the lord, the world, it is the lord who has the final say. ”

Li Ru's analysis, Dong Zhuo has been listening quietly, and the reason why he did not interrupt is because Dong Zhuo also felt the crisis brought by the Kwantung Coalition Army, and Dong Zhuo urgently needed a solution. After Li Ru finished speaking, Dong Zhuo thought for a long time before he spoke: "It's okay to go, the emperor must follow, but moving the capital is not such a simple thing, Wen You can make preparations first, so that the people of the world feel that moving the capital is a matter of righteousness, so as to reduce the resistance to moving the capital." ”

Li Ru knew that Dong Zhuo still couldn't make up his mind to leave the prosperous place of Luoyang, and Li Ru also understood that no one would be willing to put it on anyone. So Li Ru had to prepare for the possible relocation of the capital, and a nursery rhyme appeared on the streets of Luoyang in the near future: a Han in the east and a Han in the west, and the deer walked into Chang'an, so that there would be no difficulty.
