Chapter 263: Yuan Benchu's army invaded and annexed the state

readx;

For Yuan Shao, money and grain are just a concept. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info 2 million stone grain and grass for 200,000 reinforcements, and it is impossible to say who loses and who earns. Of course, Yuan Shao was not prepared to give enough two million stones of grain and grass at all, and when he launched a war against Liu Zhang, he would let Zhang Yan's people be cannon fodder. When Zhang Yan's people are almost dead, Yuan Shao will swallow up Zhang Yan's forces. At that time, not only will there be no need to continue to give grain and grass, but maybe a lot of things can be scavenged from Zhang Yan!

Since he was already calculating Zhang Yan, Yuan Shao naturally agreed to Zhang Yan's request, and Yuan Shao also had a condition, that is, two million stone grains and grass could not be given at one time. According to Yuan Shao's plan, the two million stone grain and grass will be given to Zhang Yan in four batches, with 500,000 stone per quarter. When Liu Zhang knew about this, he laughed and said that Yuan Shao had an economic mind and would actually pay in installments!

With grain and grass, Zhang Yan naturally would not refuse, he also knew that Yuan Shao was calculating him, but why wasn't he calculating Yuan Shao? One just wants to get money and food, and is not ready to do things, and the other just wants the other party to die, but he doesn't want to pay the price, and the two people with evil intentions reached an agreement in this way.

A month later, Yuan Shao was ready, he personally led an army of 500,000 from Yecheng, and Zhang Yan also commanded 200,000 troops and went with him. The two met in Julu, known as the army of millions, and came to Jinyang through Yangquan. Hearing that Yuan Shao's army rushed directly to Jinyang, Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Zhang He, and Zhang Liao sent several urgent documents to Chang'an for help.

"Lord, something is wrong, Yuan Shao raised a million army and went straight to Jinyang!" Guo Jia received the urgent document from the state, and did not dare to delay for a moment, and rushed directly to Liu Zhang's mansion.

"Yuan Shao really brought seeds, just after fighting Gongsun Zhan, he didn't even recuperate, and he dared to attack Bingzhou directly!" Liu Zhang casually threw the information aside, and asked with a smile: "Fengxiao, I ordered you to change the matter of the Sanguan guard, how did you do?" ”

Guo Jia bowed and said, "Lord Qi, it's done." Wuguan is close to Wancheng, and Wancheng is in the hands of Liu Biao, the threat is not big, according to the meaning of the lord, Tao Ying, Mi Fang, Pan Feng three generals are ordered to guard. Hangu Pass is the gateway of Sanqin, and it is guarded by General Ma Teng and Ma Tie. Tongguan is the last barrier in Chang'an, and it is defended by General Ma Dai when it is connected to Hangu Pass! ”

"Good!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "It is also necessary to send a partial division to the Tiger Prison Pass, so as not to take the opportunity for Cao Ying to sneak attack." ”

"This is done!" Guo Jia said with a smile: "The two generals Yan Xing and Guan Hai led 20,000 troops, and they have already reached the Tiger Prison Pass to hold on!" ”

"In this way, I am relieved!" Liu Zhang smiled and asked, "What is the situation of the expansion of the various armies?" ”

Guo Jia took out another piece of information and handed it to Liu Zhang: "Our army has 230,000 main forces, of which General Guan Yu's Qinglongwei, General Gan Ning's Jinfan Battalion, and General Huang Zhong's Tiger Army are all infantry, and they have all been expanded to 50,000. General Zhao Yun's Tiger Guard Battalion was converted into cavalry, and it remained at 20,000. General Zhang Fei's Overlord Cavalry and General Ma Chao's Xiliang Iron Cavalry are 30,000 each! ”

"How many troops are there in the state?" Even if it is an elite, 230,000 to 700,000 is a bit mysterious. What's more, Yuan Shao claims to be one million, and now that the specific information has not been transmitted to Chang'an, Liu Zhang is calculated according to one million, and the disparity of four to one is somewhat dangerous!

Guo Jia knew that Liu Zhang was not in the mood to read the information, so he took out a note from his arms and said: "According to Tian Yuanhao's report, in addition to the troops defending the city, General Zhang He's halberd warriors and General Zhang Liao's wolf cavalry also have 50,000 horses each!" ”

"Three hundred and thirty thousand dozen one million, Feng Xiao, we have some mysteries!" Liu Zhang's mouth was frustrated, but his face was full of smiles.

Guo Jia smiled: "Looking at the expression of the lord, I thought we had a million troops, and Yuan Shao only had 300,000 troops!" Lord, you don't need me to motivate you! ”

"What? Do you want to fool me with Xun Wenruo's ten wins and ten defeats? Liu Zhang smiled: "I'm better than Yuan Shao, why don't I win ten?" ”

"The lord is wise, how can he be compared to Yuan Shao!" Guo Jia said with a smile: "However, the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and the lord must not be underestimated..."

Liu Zhang was a little stunned and said, "Fengxiao, you are not mistaken!" Now the enemy is strong and I am weak! ”

"Uh..."Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It has almost become a routine for the lord to win more with less, and even I have lost my due caution and need to be reviewed!" ”

"Come on! Don't play tricks here! Liu Zhang stood up and said, "Since Yuan Benchu is looking for death, Ben Hou will fulfill him." Ordered Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong, and Gan Ning to raise the army, and then made Guo Jia, Zhou Yu, Fa Zheng, and Jia Xu the military advisors of the army, this time I want to take the north in the palm of my hand! ”

Liu Zhang's order made Chang'an chaotic, the streets were full of soldiers running, and there were scenes of parting everywhere, which felt like relatives sending their children to the battlefield. Of these people, I don't know how many will not come back. However, for the sake of reunification, in order to keep the Han dynasty from falling for thousands of years, these are worth it!

Three days later, the army set off from Chang'an, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Zhang Fei with 80,000 cavalry as the vanguard, straight to Jinyang, Liu Zhang led Huang Zhong, Guan Yu as the Chinese army, although Gan Ning's department is amphibious, but Liu Zhang still let it escort grain and grass transportation. Gan Ning was dissatisfied with this for a long time.

The speed of Zhao Yun and the three of them was relatively fast, and they directly sent a letter to Guguan, crossed the east of the river, and went straight to Jinyang from Yong'an. When Yuan Shao arrived at Yangquan, the three arrived in Jinyang. Although Zhang He has been taking refuge in Liu Zhang for four or five years, he has never seen Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, and Zhang Fei. Especially seeing Ma Chao's young age, Zhang He couldn't help but feel a little contemptuous. If it weren't for the current enemy, Ma Chao would definitely have to compete with Zhang He!

"Lord Tian, Yuan Benchu has already arrived in Yangquan, I want to lead the troops to rob the grain, I don't know what you think?" Seeing that the atmosphere was a little wrong, Zhao Yun hurriedly found an excuse to attract everyone's attention. Of course, he also wants to keep the enemy out of the country!

"General Zhao, your idea is good, but Yuan Shao has an army of 700,000, if you go to rob grain, it will only have an effect unless you go deep into Jizhou!" Tian Feng shook his head, he was not optimistic about the grain robbery plan.

"Then I'll go to Jizhou to rob grain!" Zhao Yun said with a smile: "If Yuan Shao is transporting grain, he will pass through Changshan. I am a native of Changshan Mansion and am very familiar with it. Although I haven't been back for more than ten years, I still remember the road in my hometown. Maybe he can cut off Yuan Shao's grain road and let him collapse without a fight! ”

"Brother-in-law, I'll go with you!" Seeing the confidence that Zhao Yun said, Ma Chao was not far behind. Of course, if Zhao Yun goes on an adventure, Ma Chao can also protect one or two, and he will never let Zhao Yun have an accident, because Zhao Yun is the husband of Ma Yunlu, the little princess of the Ma family.

"Meng Qi naturally wants to go!" Zhao Yun just wants to get Ma Chao, an unruly guy, away, if Ma Chao doesn't go, wouldn't his adventure be less valuable?

"In that case, when are we leaving?" Ma Chao is in a hurry, saying that it is wind, and there will be rain soon.

"Don't worry!" Zhao Yundao: "Marching and fighting requires precise planning, especially such a big battle. It doesn't matter if we lose our surname, if we miss the great affairs of the lord, then we will not be able to redeem our death! ”

"This..."Ma Chao was very shocked in his heart, he never thought about dying for anything, and Zhao Yun seemed to be willing to sacrifice for Liu Zhang's great cause, which shocked Ma Chao at the same time, but also a little puzzled.

Looking at Ma Chao's puzzled face, Zhao Yun shook his head with a smile. Chaowen said, it is okay to die at night! There are many people who know this sentence, and how many people understand this sentence? It just so happens that Zhao Yun is one of them! Establishing an immortal dynasty and giving the people a stable life is Liu Zhang's ambition and Zhao Yun's ideal!

"General Zhao, robbing grain is indeed a good way, but how sure are you?" Tian Feng and Fu Zhu pondered for a long time, and Fu Zhu suddenly asked.

"Sancheng!" Zhao Yun said with a smile: "How can you be 100% sure of a war?" With a 10% chance of winning, you can take the risk! If Mr. Guo is given a 30% chance of winning, he can almost guarantee a complete victory! ”

"No!" Tian Feng said angrily: "Guo Fengxiao is known as a ghost talent, do you think you have his ability?" If the lord knew that you were so risky, and we did not stop it, would you not be angry? That's it! ”

"Could it be that we just watched Yuan Shaobing force Jinyang?" Zhao Yun's face was full of unwillingness, he didn't want Yuan Shao to enter Bingzhou, because Bingzhou was Liu Zhang's earliest base. Liu Zhang's power began with the merger of state pastors.

"There it is!" Fu Zhu suddenly smiled and said, "General Zhao can go, but not to rob grain!" ”

Zhao Yun asked puzzledly, "Then what am I going to do?" ”

"Go and bother!" He smiled and said, "The three generals are all cavalry, and the most important thing for cavalry is speed. I think that although Yuan Shao's army is numerous, it is by no means as many cavalry as our army. General Zhao only needs to lead his troops to delay Yuan Shao's march and wait until the lord's army arrives, and then he can defeat Yuan Shao! ”

"Great idea!" Zhang Fei said with a smile: "Most of the cavalry under me and Meng Qi are foreigners, and they are very good at riding and shooting. When it comes to scrambling, there's no better fit for them! ”

"It's... It's a bit risky..."Tian Feng is just a strategist after all, and he doesn't have that decisiveness. If Liu Zhang is replaced, maybe they all agree!

"What is there that does not take risks in war?" Zhang Fei laughed and said: "Back then, the eldest brother only had more than 10,000 people in his hands, so he dared to fight with the hundreds of thousands of troops of Karasuma and the Huns!" Now that we have an army of 80,000 under our command, we can't even harass Yuan Shao, so wouldn't we go back and forth? ”

"Good!" Tian Feng knew that Liu Zhang's command was full of bold lords, since Zhao Yun and the three insisted, he no longer stopped him, and after explaining some precautions, he let Zhao Yun and the three lead the army out of the city.

The galloping horses' hooves trampled on the yellow earth, kicking up a cloud of dust. Standing at the head of Jinyang City, watching Zhao Yun and the three of them go away with a large army, Tian Feng and Fu Zhu didn't know whether their decision was right or wrong. Zhang He, who didn't deal with Ma Chao much, stood on the head of the city and silently blessed him, hoping that Zhao Yun and the three of them would return victoriously.

When Zhao Yun's army disappeared into the sky, Tian Feng turned around and said, "We can't be left behind, Junyi, the defense of Jinyang will be handed over to you!" ”

"Tian Gong rest assured!" Zhang He said very seriously: "As long as Zhang is still alive, no Yuan soldier can attack Jinyang City!" ”

"Good!" Tian Feng turned to Fu Zhu and said, "Inform Wen Yuan and let him answer Zhao Yun and the other three generals at any time!" ”
