Chapter 130: Soldiers are coming to the east of the river
In late October of the first year of Chuping, the north wind howled, and the heavy snow fell for three days and three nights, and a section of the Yellow River in Hedong County froze.
"Report! ββ" In Huayin County, a soldier quickly stepped into the county government and said loudly: "Xiangguo, the big river is frozen one foot and six inches, and you can march!" β
Syllable! Dong Zhuo, who was in the brocade hat and ermine, slapped the desk, got up suddenly, and laughed: "Haha! God help me! This time, my army of 40,000 is divided into four routes, and I will definitely take Hedong in one fell swoop! Break the king of thieves into pieces! β
Lu Bu at the bottom came out and said loudly: "But please give an order from your father-in-law!" β
Dong Zhuo nodded, his face was solemn, and he said sharply: "Life, Ma Teng Han Sui led 12,000 men and horses to march out of Puban!" β
"Order!"
"Order, Lu Bufan Chou led 12,000 men and horses, and the troops went out to cross the Lingdu!"
"Order!"
"Life, Niu Fu Jia Xu led 12,000 men and horses out of Shaanxi County!"
"Order!"
"Order, Li Dao Guo Yan led 5,000 men and horses to go out of Hanoi!"
"Order!"
Dong Zhuo looked at the group of soldiers: "The prime minister is sitting in Huayin, waiting for the triumph, and all the departments will immediately pull out the camp and raise troops!" β
"Order!" The next group of soldiers shouted in unison.
Dong Zhuo let out a sigh, for more than a month, his war in Luoyang has also been extremely unfavorable.
The northern line of Hedong and Hanoi lost troops, and the eastern Chenggao could not be attacked, Yan Zhong was defeated by Sun Jian and died of illness on the way, and the Zhonglang generals Hu Zhen and LΓΌ Bu who rushed to the southern line were defeated by Sun Jian again because of discord, and then Dong Zhuo hurriedly transferred back to LΓΌ Bu, and sent Zhonglang to rush Xu Rong to the southern front to fight against Sun Jian, so as to stabilize the situation.
But this attack on Hedong, in addition to the left general Dong Min and 30,000 soldiers and horses sitting in Chang'an. The elite of his subordinates is almost exhausted, and the Qiang people are responding at the Yumen gate in the upper reaches of the Yellow River. You can't win!
Dong Zhuo watched the generals go out, as if he had seen Hedong County re-enter his palm.
Meanwhile. Dong Zhuo, who was looking at the world, rarely showed a little confusion in his eyes, looked at his nephew Dong Huang beside him, and muttered: "I don't know if this king of thieves is the abolished King Hongnong......"
Dong Huang said loudly: "Uncle doesn't need to think about it, people can be resurrected after death, King Hongnong is dead, this king of thieves must be a fake with bad intentions!" β
Dong Zhuo was silent, and in the past six months, he has been thinking about the identity of this Shenwu King who seems to have come out of nowhere. He had already checked the genealogy of the Han clan one by one, but now there was no prince of the Liu family who was compatible with this thief king.
In this way, there are only two possibilities, one is that this thief king is a fake with his surname, and the other is that Dong Zhuo didn't dare to think deeply.
He still remembered that Li Ru, who was the most loyal to him, had reminded himself many times that there was a difference between Empress Dowager He and King Hongnong!
It's just that I really didn't listen to it at the beginning.
Now that Li Ru is difficult to know life and death, Dong Zhuo recalled Li Ru's words, and he also had a lot of strange things about King Hongnong. In particular, Xu Rong in the southern city of Luoyang fought against King Shenwu, and the corpse of the eunuch actually appeared, which made him even more suspicious.
But there is a problem that Dong Zhuo has never been able to understand, if this king of thieves is Liu Wei, the king of Hongnong. has such courage and scheming, why was he abolished by himself in the first place?
And why don't you take advantage of the Kanto thieves to occupy the sun and become emperor!
He also has a secret hatred in his heart, if this thief is the emperor. Defeat Luoyang by himself and destroy his temple. will be able to make its reputation fall, and what kind of face do the Kwantung princes have to support the Son of Heaven.
At all costs. This time, we must capture the king of thieves and see his face!
Dong Zhuo's eyes flashed with resentment, just because of this Shenwu King, he has been seriously injured several times in the past six months, almost died, and fell into a body of injuries, especially two arrows in the waist, which made him lose his function as a man.
β¦β¦
Hedong County, Anyi County.
There is the old Anyi Palace in the county, which was originally built by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty when he came to Hedong to worship the Houtu Temple, and later there were many dilapidations.
After Lu Zhi obtained Anyi, he asked the Anyi Palace to be built slightly as the residence of Ji Ping's family.
At this time, in the Anyi Palace, Ji Ping was watching the snow scene with Queen He, Li, Tang Wan and Yin Muyue.
Ji Ping stretched out his hand to pick up a few snowflakes, and couldn't help sighing: "It's a heavy snowfall, this winter's wheat cover is covered with three layers of quilts, and I will sleep with steamed buns next year, no matter what, next year's wheat will definitely be a bumper harvest." β
Tang Wan said with some concern: "With such a heavy snowfall, I'm afraid that some people will freeze to death." β
Ji Ping shook his head and said: "Most of the caves we have opened up in Hedong, which are warm in winter and cool in summer. β
At this time, Lu Zhi hurriedly came in outside, grabbed Ji Ping, and said urgently: "The lord is still in the mood to enjoy the snow here?" Now that the big river and the Fen River are frozen, Dong Zhuo will definitely attack on a large scale, and the Pingyang white wave thieves will also take the opportunity to go south, and the east of the river is in danger! β
After half a year of construction, Lu Zhi now has a lot of feelings for Hedong.
Ji Ping asked Lu Zhi to pour a glass of warm wine, and sent two hot cakes, and said with a smile: "Uncle Lu doesn't need to worry, after half a year of recruitment, now Xun Di leads 5,000 people, Xu Huang leads 5,000 people, Guan Yu leads 10,000 people, Zhang Liao leads 15,000 people, and the rest are Gai Shun and Yang Fengzhu generals to guard all parties, three days ago, I sent Duan Jin, Dian Wei and Geng Zhong each with 3,000 people from the personal guard battalion to rush to the three ferries to support, Dong Zhuoshi is not worried. β
In private, he still calls Lu Zhi as Uncle Lu.
Upon hearing that Duan Jin, Dian Wei and Geng Zhong led the personal guard battalion to support the three ferries, Lu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression was still a little worried: "Dong Zhuo's dispatch must be elite soldiers, and now the interior of Hedong is empty, if one of the ferries is broken, I'm afraid it will ...... And there are hundreds of thousands of Baibo troops in Binh Duong......"
Ji Ping let Lu Zhi drink warm wine and smiled: "Uncle Lu, I remember that when it was freezing in February this year, I chased Dong Zhuo on the ice, and now, I am still not afraid of him." Cavalry battles, we are not as good, ice battles, but Dong Zhuo is not good, and neither is the Baibo army. β
β¦β¦
On the vast river, there was a lot of snow, Lu Bu and Fan Chou rode with 12,000 steps, tightened their armor, exhaled, faced the wind and snow, and slowly marched on the ice to the Fenglingdu on the opposite bank.
The infantry was in front and on the flanks, guarding the horses behind, and the hooves of the horses were wrapped in cloth. Prevents slippage.
Among the 12,000 horsemen, there were 4,000 men and horses of Lu Bu, and they went through several battles. Now there are less than 2,000 real soldiers under Lu Bu, and the remaining 2,000 are miscellaneous soldiers recruited from all over the world.
And Fan Chou had 8,000 men under his command. It is all Qianghu soldiers, 3,000 infantry, 5,000 cavalry, although Captain Fan Chou's rank is not as good as Lu Bu's lieutenant general, but the strength in his hands is firmly overpowering him.
During the march, the soldiers under Lu Bu and Fan Chou were distinct, nearly half a mile apart, and marched separately.
Even so, Fan Chou still glanced at Lu Bu from time to time. His eyes were full of vigilance.
Lu Bu had a halberd in his hand, and when he saw Fan Chou's vigilant gaze, he pursed his lips, and a look of disdain flashed in his eyes.
Today's Lu Bu is already famous among the generals under Dong Zhuo, just because he beat Hu Zhen in the battle with Sun Jian a month ago.
After Lu Bu killed Ding Yuan and took refuge with Dong Zhuo, life was not easy, and his Bingzhou soldiers and Dong Zhuo's Qiang Hu soldiers had always been at odds. A month ago, Yan Zhong was defeated, and Dong Zhuo sent Hu Zhen to control LΓΌ Bu to attack Sun Jian on the southern front.
At that time, Lu Bu was losing his troops, and his subordinates hastily recruited thousands of new soldiers and horses, and the military discipline was loose along the way.
The main general Hu Zhen relied on Dong Zhuo's lineage. To be proud, when he saw this situation, he released cruel words, and this trip must be a general. in order to make the army look neat.
The generals mentioned by Hu Zhen are naturally the generals in the army of Lu Bu and Zhou. This sentence made Lu Bu very dissatisfied, and several generals under him also complained about it.
At dusk marched to Quang Seng. It was still a few miles away from Yangren County, where Sun Jian was located, and he was going to camp overnight and march the next day as planned. But Lu Bu secretly made a bad move, and instigated Hu Zhen to say that Dong Zhuo's army was prestigious, and if he camped in Guangcheng tonight, Sun Jian would be so frightened that he would take the opportunity to escape, so he should march overnight, otherwise he would not be able to catch up.
Hu Zhen felt justified when he heard it, so he marched in a hurry overnight, and when he arrived at the Yangren, he saw that it was heavily guarded, and where was the person they imagined going to the city. But at this time they were already sleepy and tired, and it was night, and the rapid march had no equipment, and could not attack the city, so they set up camp on the spot and sent a soldier to guard it.
Not long after resting, Lu Bu's gang began to make bad again, shouting "enemy attack" at night, Hu Zhen's soldiers were shocked and tired, as soon as they heard the enemy attack, they threw away their armor and trampled on each other, and escaped for more than ten miles in one go, only to find that there was no enemy at all. The next day, Hu Zhen, whose morale was greatly frustrated, led his troops to attack Yangren, but Lu Bu did not contribute to the work, but not only did Yangren County not attack, but was cut down by Sun Jian Several Qiang Hu generals, and Hu Zhen had to retreat.
Since this battle, the contradiction between Dong Zhuo's Bingzhou soldiers and Qianghu soldiers has further intensified, and the relationship has dropped to the freezing point, and Lu Bu has also become a pit in the mouth of the Qianghu soldiers.
And Lu Bu is also a proud lord, and now he simply obeys Dong Zhuo's orders, ignoring all the other generals under Dong Zhuo, which makes Dong Zhuo quite relieved.
At this time, they had already reached the center of the river, only two or three miles away from Hebei County on the opposite bank, and the raised fortifications on the bank could be faintly seen in the wind and snow.
Lu Bu looked at his subordinate Gao Shun generals and said in a low voice: "As soon as you see the opportunity, if you are expected to attack Hebei County, you will take advantage of the situation to attack, if it is hopeless, listen to a certain order, you should retreat, don't ruin the good lives of the sons and daughters of the state." β
The generals nodded in unison.
Lu Bu looked at Fan Chou, who was agitating the morale of his subordinates in front of him, and sneered: "King Shenwu, who is as cunning as a ghost, as smart as Li Ru, has also been caught, resourceful as Jia Xu has been defeated several times, and is as strong as Dong Xiangguo has a strong army, and he has suffered many losses, how can it be so easy to deal with, and let Fan Chou go first......"
Before he spoke, plop! Thump!
The sound of soldiers falling into the water came from Fan Chou's side, and under the snow, two ice caves were exposed, and the Qianghu soldiers were in confusion.
"It's a trap again!" Lu Bu scolded, didn't care about gloating, and hurriedly said: "Song Xian, lead the troops to explore the trap ahead!" Gao Shun, lead the trap camp to protect the two wings! Wei continued, lead the troops to protect the war horses! β
Lu Bu will never forget the battle of Huailing for half a year until his death, and King Shenwu only relied on a small pit trap to trap him, and he lost his troops and generals, and even the red rabbit horse was lost.
And he knew that the appearance of the trap often represented the ambush and attack of the Shenwu King.
The soldiers over there didn't realize this yet, but just watched the two ice caves scold one after another.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Lu Bu's mouth, the more severe the losses of Dong Zhuo's Qiang Hu soldiers, the more stable his position as a state soldier would be.
At this moment, there was a sharp whistle in the distance on both sides, and a group of white-robed people slid through the snow with great speed.
"Array! Get on the arrow! Gao Shun reacted the fastest, and immediately gave an order to the trapped camp. (To be continued!)
