Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Bridge Dies
On this day, Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, and Zhang Miao, the Taishou of Chen Liu, got together to discuss, only to hear Liu Dai say: "Now that my Yanzhou and Chen Liuzhou are out of food, and the alliance leader has not sent grain and grass for a long time, what can I do about it?" Zhang Miao has a friendship with Han Fu in Jizhou, so he knows that Jizhou no longer provides for the allies, Zhang Miao: "Now that the allies have lost the supply of grain and grass in Jizhou, and Nanyang is the territory of the Yuan family, it is natural to raise the three Yuan first, and the soldiers and horses of the three Yuan families account for as much as half of the allied army." Sun Wentai has left, most of the grain and grass in Yingchuan have been taken away by Sun Wentai, 200,000 allied troops have been messing around in our Yanzhou and Chenliu territory for two months, and now everyone in Yanzhou complains that the people of Chenliu run to other counties every day, and they do not want to suffer in Chenliu anymore. ”
Liu Dai remembered that Dongjun Qiaomao came, Dongjun is a big county in Yanzhou, but Qiaomao never obeyed Yanzhou's assassin Liu Dai, the two had a lot of grievances, Liu Dai said fiercely: "Dongjun Taishou has suffered a lot of casualties in the siege recently, and there must be a lot of grain and grass left. Zhang Miao also knew about the grievances between Liu Dai and Qiao Mao, and did not speak out. Liu Dai saw that Zhang Miao didn't speak, and he didn't embarrass this good man, Zhang Miao was loyal, rarely grudged with others, and was also respectful to Liu Dai, so Liu Dai still felt that Zhang Miao was a reliable person. So Liu Dai got up and walked out of the camp and returned to the Yanzhou military camp, Zhang Miao thought that Liu Dai was just saying some angry words, and he didn't care.
Unexpectedly, Liu Dai didn't speak, and after returning to the Yanzhou camp, Liu Dai immediately ordered the team to gather and led 5,000 men and horses straight to the Dongjun army. In the Dongjun military camp, Qiao Mao naturally didn't know Liu Dai's thoughts, and felt that now was the time for the Kwantung Coalition to form an alliance to fight against Dong, so he didn't care about Liu Dai showing up with 5,000 soldiers and horses. In line with etiquette, Qiao Mao came out of the tent to greet Liu Dai, and Liu Dai asked: "My army has little food, why don't Yuan Wei allocate 10,000 stone grain and grass to meet so." "Qiao Mao was shocked, 10,000 stones, not to mention that Qiao Mao really doesn't have it, even if there is, it is impossible to give so much. Thousands of years ago, the heavens were beautiful, and a small county could easily take out 10,000 stone of grain, but in recent years, more people have starved to death.
Qiao Mao: "My lord, you and I are both allies, how can we have so much food and grass." Qiao Mao was telling the truth, but Liu Dai was furious, thinking that this county guard would not listen to his orders to assassinate him, Liu Dai immediately became furious, and suddenly shouted: "Kill." Liu Dai's personal guards beside him had already received Liu Dai's orders, and when they heard Liu Dai shouting, they didn't say a word, and when Qiao Mao was stunned, he hurriedly raised his knife and rushed over, and slashed at Qiao Mao. Poor Qiao Mao didn't figure out what was going on, and was chopped into meat sauce by Liu Dai's personal guards. The 5,000 Yanzhou army outside the camp also took advantage of the situation to attack the camp of Dongjun, and Qiao Mao died, and Qiao Mao's cronies reacted violently and shouted: "Avenge Taishou." The whole camp of Dongjun didn't know why, but everyone was panicked and angry when they shouted that Qiao Mao was dead. Wave after wave of attacks towards Liu Dai, Liu Dai didn't expect this kind of result, he thought that as soon as he shouted the name of Yanzhou Assassin, he would be able to suppress the soldiers and horses of Dongjun, but unfortunately he was wrong. The soldiers and horses of Dongjun are not afraid of death and want to fight with Liu Dai, and the cronies next to Liu Dai said loudly: "Lord, the soldiers and horses of Dongjun are unknown, but the lord did not resist the banner of Yanzhou, and the soldiers and horses of Dongjun were used by a few people with intentions." ”
Liu Dai suddenly woke up, and shouted loudly that he was the assassin of Yanzhou, but a few people could hear it, so he hurriedly ordered people to form a team to erect a big banner, and ordered the soldiers and horses to carefully check who instigated the soldiers and horses to attack Liu Dai in the Dongjun army, and immediately focused on attacking. Soon, the hybrid situation was slowly controlled, and although many Dongjun soldiers were unhappy with Qiao Mao's death, they recognized Liu Dai's identity. Liu Dai didn't care whether he had it or not, he directly accused Qiao Mao of collaborating with the enemy, and finally received the remaining nearly 10,000 troops from Dongjun as the assassin of Yanzhou. However, Liu Dai didn't get much grain and grass from the Dongjun camp, but Liu Dai killed Qiao Mao, and his heart was comfortable, and the matter of food was not so important.
Qiao Mao died quickly, and the news spread quickly, and it spread all over the Allied camp in an instant, and Yuan Shao's first reaction was impossible. When the spies reported that they said yes again and again, Yuan Shaoxin was also angry, and suddenly heard the news that Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang led his troops to Hanoi, and Hanzhong Chen Lin was also pulling out the camp. Yuan Shao couldn't catch his anger, he fell to the ground with his head raised, and everyone hurriedly rescued him, only to hear Yuan Shao struggling and saying: "It's over, the allies are finished, the name of the fourth and third princes is ruined here." "Yuan Shao should be angry, as the fourth and third dukes, he shouldered the heavy responsibility of the alliance leader and raised troops to defeat Dong Zhuo, but now he didn't even see the shadow of Luoyang, and the allies were scattered in chaos, so Yuan Shao's reputation was greatly hit.
But on Chen Lin's side, when he first heard that Liu Dai entered the camp to kill Qiao Mao, he was also taken aback, and hurriedly discussed with Jia Xu, Jia Xu: "Lord, now the allies have distrusted each other, and there is a gap between my Hanzhong army and the alliance leader and Yuan Highway, and both of them have more soldiers than our army, so the lord should stay away from here to watch the changes." Chen Lin felt that it was reasonable, especially after Cao * and Sun Jian left the allies one after another, Chen Lin felt that the allies were destined to become a laughing stock, at this time, the former allies did not die in the hands of the enemy, but died under the knife of their compatriots, Chen Lin also felt a chill. So he hurriedly ordered the whole army to pull out the camp and return to Xingyang first, and there were still hundreds of Hanzhong soldiers guarding Xingyang, which was a temporary base for the Hanzhong army. So Chen Lin and the others rushed to pack up, and suddenly heard that the Hanoi army had left the camp and went north.
Jia Xu: "Lord, I'm afraid that the Hanoi army is going home." Chen Lin thought of Fang Yue and said, "Dingguo, I don't know when we will be able to see each other again." The Hanzhong army rushed to the road, and suddenly a group of cavalry about 100 horsemen rushed behind him, but Chen Lin recognized that it was the cavalry under Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao also had a team of more than 1,000 cavalry, but it was rarely used, and he came out at this time, for some reason. I only heard the cavalry commander shouting: "Chen Taishou, the alliance leader will ask Chen Taishou where he is going in the future, I will gather troops to fight Dong, Dong thief is not destroyed, Chen Taishou will betray the alliance?" ”
When Chen Lin heard this, he was amused in his heart, thinking that Yuan Benchu knew that he was like this, why did he bother at the beginning, but he still had to do the superficial work, Chen Lin hurriedly said: "Please report to the alliance leader, my Hanzhong army is short of food and grass, this is just a temporary return to Xingyang, not to abandon the alliance." After speaking, he ignored the cavalry and continued to walk towards Xingyang. Yuan Shao's cavalry was helpless, and he didn't dare to rush into Chen Lin, so he had to helplessly stand on his horse and watch the Hanzhong army go away, and then remembered to go back to Yuan Shao's life.
Chen Lin and Wang Kuang's movements were very fast, Qiao Mao died for a while, and he had already left the allied camp, and before Yuan Shao could react, at this time Yuan Shao was in a hurry, and hurriedly called Yuan Shu and Yuan Yu, Yuan Shao said: "At this very moment, the three of us are the same Yuan family, and the past grievances should be put aside, and we should work together to protect the Dong Allied Army, if the Allied forces are dispersed today, my Yuan clan will be humiliated, and I hope the two virtuous brothers will help." ”
Although Yuan Shu and Yuan Yi were energetic from time to time, they could see the situation of the allies at this time, so they nodded in agreement with Yuan Shao's words. Yuan Shao was very pleased, the interests of the family are greater than everything, so he continued: "Now that even Luoyang has not been able to go, the allies can not disperse, before Sun Wentai left, but he forgave him, if Sun Wentai can order the severe punishment of this person when he leaves, there will be no such situation at this time, anyone who wants to come and leave as much as they want, hum." Highway and Boye, immediately go back to dispatch the army, as long as there is anyone in the allied army who wants to leave, the shepherd can go, but the army must stay. ”
This time, the three brothers of the Yuan family are very unified, Qi Qi pulled their respective soldiers out of the array, to say that the three of them together have an army of seventy or eighty thousand, others such as Bao Xin and others, seeing Yuan Shao's three imposing appearance, greatly panicked, only to see Yuan Shao come out with a smile and said: "Everyone, don't panic, not long ago there was a Dong army spy in the alliance, the gossip confuses the public, confuses people's hearts, everyone in the alliance is afraid, today the leader of the alliance has killed a thief, I hope you don't believe these gossips in the future, We will work together to conquer Luoyang, eliminate thieves for the country, and establish an immortal reputation. ”
Liu Dai didn't like Yuan's dominance the most, but at this time, he saw Yuan Shao's tens of thousands of troops eyeing him, and remembered that he had killed Qiao Mao, as long as Yuan Shao didn't come to find Liu Dai's trouble, Liu Dai didn't want to embarrass Yuan Shao, so Liu Dai just hated in his heart, but didn't speak. Han Fu and others expressed their willingness to obey the arrangement of the alliance leader and try their best to attack Dong Jun in the future. As soon as Yuan Shao counted, there were still the Eighth Route Army, namely: Yuan Shao himself, Yuan Shu, Liu Dai, Kong You, Han Fu, Zhang Miao, Yuan Yi and Bao Xin, the Eighth Route Army, and the 1450,000 army, which finally maintained Yuan Shao's face.
To say that these people are all shepherds, no one obeys anyone, because they were all officially appointed by the imperial court before, and Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance, is just respected by everyone, and has no official authority, if it weren't for the so-called fame and fame, no one would listen to Yuan Shao's words. Yuan Shao gathered the Eighth Route Allied Army, breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately ordered the army to attack Bishui Pass to show his determination to win over Dong. At the same time, he sent a letter to Chen Lin quickly, and his words still claimed to be the leader of the alliance, which meant that Yuan Shao did not exclude Chen Lin from the alliance, which made Chen Lin a little surprised.
Chen Lin heard that Yuan Shao forcibly collected the Eighth Route Allied Army, and he had returned to Xingyang, Qiao Mao's death made the allied herdsmen distrust each other, but they still gathered in front of Yuan Shao's powerful military to tackle key problems, which has to be said that Yuan Shao is also capable. After returning to Xingyang, Chen Lin thought to himself that he had just had time to reorganize the army, and it was time for the three thousand Luoyang soldiers to be divided into various departments, otherwise like Yang Ren and others now, they were just carrying hundreds of soldiers and horses, like some generals.
A new round of fighting for Dong has just begun, and I don't know what will happen in the future, who knows.
