Chapter 256: Various Situations
The generals were in an uproar, and then fell silent.
"The king treats us kindly, how can we hesitate at such a time?? We should lead 100,000 infantry troops to find a way to go back to Yecheng and help the king defend the city. Waiting for reinforcements from the Wei State. ”
Among them was the general who generously said.
"That's right, the king's kindness is as heavy as a mountain, how can we give up ??? easily"
Another general said loudly.
But it was only four or five people who really responded. Although Yuan Shao was generous and gracious, he also had too many relationships with each other, and the generals who led the troops were uneven.
There are few who are faithful, but many who fear death.
Although he treats the soldiers leniently, the country is very fragile, especially in the face of life and death, and there are few loyal and righteous people.
"You, how can you ??? like this" Five or six generals who wanted to lead their troops back saw that their companions were silent, and they were immediately furious, and pointed at everyone and said.
Zhang He breathed a sigh of relief, he was actually quite grateful to Yuan Shao, but he was not the kind of person who died with Yuan Shao when he was in danger.
"I, Zhang He, haven't achieved fame yet, how can I participate in the battle to the death? Originally, I was afraid that Yuan Shao would win the hearts of the people, and if I surrendered, the army would mutiny. Looking at it now, Yuan Shao's defeat is a matter of course. ”
Zhang He said secretly in his heart, and then shouted: "Someone." ”
"No." Suddenly, dozens of Zhang He's personal soldiers walked in.
"Take these generals down." Zhang He pointed at the five or six loyal generals of Yuan Shao and shouted.
"No."
The pro-soldiers agreed with a bang, and took down these five or six people like wolves.
"Zhang He, you are treacherous."
"Zhang He, you shameless villain."
No matter how these five or six people scolded, Zhang He's heart was as hard as iron.
"I, Zhang He, am indeed not a gentleman, and I believe that neither are you here. Now we should talk about how to get in touch with the King of Qi. Zhang He glanced around at the generals and said.
"Contact?? Wouldn't it be okay to send someone to surrender? A general wondered.
Zhang He shook his head and said, "Sending someone to surrender to Cheng is a desperate surrender." Although we have a hundred thousand foot troops. But there is no work for an inch of land. It is better to support the troops first and guard the camp to wait and see the situation. Waiting for the king of Qi to come and surrender, we will have a great credit. After a pause, Zhang He said again: "I heard that the King of Qi is very generous, and he is a generous king who is not stingy with the land. We will all be favored. There are countless fiefdoms. ”
"Good. That's it. ”
"Okay, it's up to the general to decide."
Zhang Shuang's fame spread all over the world, some of which were good and some of which were bad. He killed the emperor as a thief who stole the country, but he also cared for the people as a benevolent lord, and at the same time, he was also famous for his generosity and overreward.
The generals present couldn't help but be lively and applauded one after another.
"Good. So I sent away Hua Xiong's envoys. Wait for the envoys of the King of Qi to arrive. Zhang He suddenly stood up and said.
So Zhang He's 100,000 infantry army stood still, seemingly supporting the army and waiting to see whether it would be successful or not.
………….
Zhang He surrendered inside, and the appearance looked at success or failure. Drive away the people sent by Hua Xiong. When Hua Xiong got the news, he was furious.
Jingxian County, Jizhou, 300,000 cavalry battalion, in the big tent of the Chinese army.
Hua Xiong summoned the generals of the various ministries. said angrily: "Zhang He, this person doesn't know the current affairs, I should lead 300,000 iron horsemen to the south." Destroy him. ”
"No!"
Pound De was old and shook his head slowly.
"Why?" Hua Xiong's eyes widened and he said angrily.
"Just because he doesn't see us doesn't mean he doesn't mean to surrender." Pound's eyes showed a thoughtful look and said.
"What do you mean?" Hua Xiong didn't understand.
"I think it's better to report the situation to the king first, and let the king decide." Pound said.
Hua Xiong was not convinced, but Pang De's courage was not under him, and he had always played the role of deputy general in the cavalry. had to give face, Hua Xiong could only suppress the disbelief in his heart and said, "Okay." ”
But he still said angrily: "If the king gives an order, I will definitely break through Zhang He's camp." ”
…………….
At this moment, Zhang Shuang had also led Xun You, Li Hui, Dian Wei, Zhou Cang, Xu Huang and other 90,000 infantry troops to kill out of Huguan, and with the slow retreat of Yuan Shao's army, they were killed outside Yecheng City.
Yuan Shao had completely given up the resistance of the rest of the place, and put on a posture of defending Yecheng.
The camp of the Qi army was built by Zhang Shuang himself, and the interior is endless, the attack and defense are integrated, and it is very strong. The soldiers are also highly motivated and full of fighting spirit.
Inside the big tent of the Chinese army.
Zhang Shuang clenched his chin with his right fist, looking at the case and drowsy.
The current situation is the success or failure of the confrontation between Huaxiong and Wen Chou in the north, and before the victory or defeat is determined in the north, Zhang Shuang will never attack Yuan Shao's capital Yecheng.
Not to mention the loss of troops, it may not be able to attack.
Sometimes war is like that.
"I, the King of Qi, may not be the protagonist, and I don't need to be the protagonist. To be able to win the war is the dignity of the world. Zhang Shuang was very leisurely, and his eyelids became deeper and deeper.
"Your Majesty!"
With a call, Li Hui walked in.
"Bump!"
Zhang Shuang's scalp was towards the table and touched it. Suddenly, the whole person sobered up, holding his red forehead and glaring at Li Hui and said, "Why are you so loud?" ”
Li Hui almost laughed, but he couldn't help it, and couldn't help it: "Report to the king, there is a big victory ahead." The generals Huaxiong, Pang De and others led 300,000 cavalry of Hanhu, killed Zhao Kou's general Wen Chou, and killed 100,000 Xianbei. ”
Saying that, Li Hui presented Huaxiong's statement to Zhang Shuang.
"Fighter planes appeared. In the future, even if Cao Cao can't be destroyed in a short period of time, Liu Bei can rely on a long-term battle to drag these two down. Zhang Shuang laughed three times when he heard this, and he was dripping with joy.
After laughing, Zhang Shuang took the table and watched it, and the more he watched it, the more happy he became.
Then he said to Li Hui: "I ordered Yousi to draw up an edict and reward Huaxiong and others with titles, good luck, and beauties." In addition, give more gold to those who are Hu, so that they may be obedient. ”
"No."
Li Hui promised. But he didn't leave immediately, but asked excitedly: "Then your majesty, can we attack Yecheng immediately and break Yuan Shao?" ”
"There's no rush to this." Zhang Shuang shook his head and said.
"Uh." Li Hui was stunned.
"Isn't there another Zhang He?" Zhang Shuang said with a smile, and then said with a deep calculation: "Let's recruit Zhang He first, and then integrate the infantry army to attack Yecheng." At that time, Yuan Shao had no help inside and outside, and he lost generals one after another. Morale must be sluggish, and it will be much easier for us to break the city. ”
"That Zhang He is General Yuan Shao, will he surrender?" Li Hui was skeptical.
"Zhang He!"
Zhang Shuang looked up at the north, for Cao Cao's five good generals. He is very familiar. These people are the most loyal to Xu Huang, the most courageous Zhang Liao, the most capable of commanding the army in Yu Ban, and the most resolute in Lejin, and Zhang He is biased towards wise generals. He is brave and good at fighting. and can design and plan. Up and down the Shu Kingdom, even Zhuge Liang was afraid of Zhang He.
But Zhang He was not known for his loyalty, he betrayed Yuan Shao in history.
Zhang Shuang doesn't hate such people, after all, he supported the boat and sank, and he didn't have to be buried with someone on the boat. On the contrary, Zhang He can be shocked by the might.
Of course, Zhang Shuang is not afraid that Zhang He will not surrender. smiled and said to Li Hui: "It is best for him to surrender." If you don't surrender, let Hua Xiong defeat him. ”
Three hundred thousand cavalry. Zhang Shuang has such confidence.
"No."
Li Hui agreed.
Within a few days, the news came like snowflakes. Fanyang Jiang Qi surrendered, and Youzhou was pacified. Zhang Shuang immediately ordered Li Hui to draft an edict, and in the name of the Son of Heaven, ordered Jiang Qi to be the assassin of Youzhou and make him a marquis.
Each county has its own reward, and the courtesy is incomparable.
Quickly stabilize the official heart and the people's heart in Youzhou.
Then. Hua Xiong's other statement also arrived, and it was Zhang He's expression that he didn't see the person sent by Hua Xiong.
"Look at it, Your Majesty. Zhang He doesn't surrender. Li Hui took Huaxiong's statement to see Zhang Shuangdao.
"It's not that he doesn't surrender, it's that Zhang He is asking for a reward." Zhang Shuang smiled and put the expression down.
"Asking for a reward?" Li Hui was surprised.
"That's my problem with him. If I am glorious, he will be at ease. Otherwise, he will be uneasy. So what should I do? Zhang Shuang asked.
"Of course it's to put him at ease." Li Hui said without thinking.
"Hahaha." Zhang Shuang laughed, and then drafted the edict. The edict named Zhang He as a meritorious general, and sealed 8,000 households. The generals they led were all Bailiehou.
"De'ang, if you go to see Zhang He in person, he will surrender."
Zhang Shuang handed the edict to Li Huidao.
"No." Li Hui was skeptical, but in the end he still believed it and left as promised.
"Tiger steps to the east, this Hebei is mine. Zhang He is also mine. There is no one in the world anymore, and the two of them will no longer be my opponents. ”
Zhang Shuang stretched his waist and smiled calmly.
…………
If the state of Zhao is defeated, then the state of Qi will have the upper hand. Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Liu Bei all know this. Therefore, Cao Cao ordered Xiahou to stay outside the Tiger Prison Pass, and he led Guo Jia and other military generals to the north to reach Zhao.
Because Tran Den is in Hanoi, the place is near. was preempted by Chen Deng to enter the Jizhou Chongcheng Dynasty Song. And Chen Deng had 44,000 soldiers and horses in the city, which was not much, but it was quite uncomfortable.
Cao Cao understood the overall situation of the world very well, so after arriving at Chaoge, he immediately ordered the siege of the city. Regardless of blood costs, regardless of casualties. Therefore, the battle between Chaoge and up and down is very intense.
"Kill !!!!"
The sound of fighting never stopped from morning to night. The corpses left by both sides in Chaoge City are tens of thousands. Blood stained the walls red, and swords covered the land.
The battlefield is raging.
Only in the darkness of night can the soldiers on both sides get a moment of peace.
On this day, Cao Cao got the news of Wen Chou's defeat.
"150,000 cavalry, although 100,000 Xianbei cavalry are old and weak. But Wen Chou was able to send it to Hua Xiong so easily, and it was really inappropriate for Yuan Benchu to use people. ”
After Cao Cao heard the news, he could only lament three times, unable to do anything.
"Regardless of whether Yuan Shao employs people properly or not, we still have to wipe this butt. The state of Zhao perished, and our state of Wei and Chu were not having a good time. And our Wei State is in the Central Plains, there is no danger on all sides, and the cavalry is vertical and horizontal, and it is the first to bear the brunt. Guo Jia sighed and said.
"Ordered a more fierce siege of the city, even at night, light torches and fight at night."
Cao Cao ordered.
"No."
With Cao Cao's order, the Wei army's attack became more fierce, and the white people fought all night and night. And Chen Deng had few soldiers and gradually couldn't resist.
The situation in Chaoge has deteriorated somewhat. (To be continued~^~)
