Chapter 242: The People Rebel
Tiger Prison Pass, Cao Cao's camp. β³Β’Top Novel,www.
"Good news, lord!"
Cheng Yu rushed into Cao Cao's tent and said to Cao Cao.
"Oh, where does the joy come from?"
Cao Cao's eyes were surprised, and then his heart moved, and asked, "But there is news from Yuan Shu?" β
"Exactly!"
Cheng Yu nodded again and again and said: "The lord guessed right, Yuan Shu finally did not disappoint the lord, Dong Zhuo's general Duan Xuan led 8,000 troops out of Xuanyuan Pass, but was ambushed by Yuan Shu in Huoyang Mountain, and the 8,000 cavalry were almost wiped out, and Duan Xuan was also killed on the spot. β
Cao Cao struck hard: "It's so good, Dong Zhuo's old thief still wants to repeat his old tricks, where is there such an easy thing." However, Yuan Highway's appearance XiΓ n also impressed Cao, this guy can be regarded as a great achievement! β
Cheng Yu said: "What's even more exciting is that Yuan Shu was furious, and personally raised troops out of Xuanyuan Pass to force Dagu Pass, and Dong Zhuo's old thief also sent the last 20,000 troops in Luoyang to Dagu Pass, and now there is no more troops in Luoyang." β
Cao Cao said: "Quickly inform the other princes of this news to boost the hearts of the army!" β
"I'll do it next"
Cheng Yu agreed and immediately ran out of the big tent.
Almost the same succession, Yuan Shao also got the same news.
Soon, all the princes knew.
Yuan Shu sent troops in anger, which was indeed good news.
At least it can disperse some of the firepower for the army of King Qin who attacked the Tiger Prison Pass, and drag Dong Zhuo's last army and horses used to defend Jinggi Luoyang at Dagu Pass, so that Dong Zhuo will no longer have any troops to send to the Tiger Prison Pass.
More importantly, it thwarted Dong Zhuo's conspiracy to attack the hinterland of the Central Plains, which was indeed very happy.
The princes were excited, and the next morning they continued to wave their troops to attack the Tiger Pass.
Li Wei suddenly felt the pressure doubled. Immediately, he sent three fast horses to the Luoyang Imperial Court.
After hearing the news, Dong Zhuo urgently summoned his ministers to discuss the local policy, and was completely panicked.
The court meeting lasted for a day. No result was reached.
Things have come to this point, even Li Ru, who has always been wise, has nothing to do.
All the surprises have been taken into account. But who wants to change the plan or can't change quickly, first Duan Xuan folded an army of 30,000 in Liangzhou, and had to let Xu Rong divide his troops to Chang'an to sit in Guanzhong.
provoked Yuan Shu this time, and it was because of Duan Xuan.
It is no wonder that Dong Zhuo's desire to destroy Duan Xuan's whole clan is really unfavorable.
If it weren't for Duan Xuan's two mistakes, the situation would not have deteriorated to such a state.
As long as they hold out until winter, the Kwantung rebels will naturally retreat.
At that time, Dong Zhuo will sit firmly in the world, enter the Central Plains, and become a hegemon.
You can also sit in the division and Guanzhong. Wait for the quiet.
However, now, the Tiger Prison Pass is almost untenable, and the situation is really bad to the point of no return.
Even Li Ru hated Duan Xuan, the good situation actually made a mess for this guy, and it was just a matter of losing to Luo Zheng, after all, Luo Zheng's guy was really not a good stubble, but the eight thousand cavalry were ambushed by Yuan Shu and sneak attacked.
I really don't know how this guy led the troops, this can be ambushed.
The situation in Luoyang is tense, and bad news is one after another.
No outcome has been agreed yet. How to deal with the fierce offensive of the Kwantung rebels, Henan Yin played a speech at the court meeting, and there were people in Gongxian and Heping counties who rebelled in just a few days. Thousands of people were gathered.
Dong Zhuo immediately issued an edict and ordered the lieutenant Yang Biao to lead the newly recruited 3,000 new troops to suppress it.
Unexpectedly, before Yang Biao arrived in Pingxian, he was defeated by the rebels. The wolf bèi fled back.
The 3,000 recruits were all newly recruited civilians, and they had not yet had time to train. If you don't even have weapons and equipment, you can't go to the battlefield. As soon as the red-eyed rebels who were killed rushed away, they were immediately defeated and crushed for thousands of miles.
Dong Zhuolongyan was furious, and he was about to behead Yang Biao to set an example.
Fortunately, the ministers all worked hard to dissuade Yang Biao and spared Yang Biao's death.
Longxian, General Pingdi's Mansion.
"Lord, Luoyang urgent!"
Cheng Ying hurriedly ran into the inner hall and bowed to Luo Zheng.
"Hmm!"
Luo Zheng put down the brush and asked, "What's the news in Luoyang?" β
Cheng Ying said excitedly: "According to the detailed report, half a month ago, Dong Zhuo's general Duan Xuan led 8,000 iron horsemen out of Xuanyuan Pass to serve the lord to conquer the Guandong that year, in order to force the Guandong princes to retreat from the Tiger Prison Pass, but they were defeated by Yuan Shu's ambush soldiers!" β
"Oh, and that?"
Luo Zheng was surprised: "When did Yuan Shu become so smart?" β
Cheng Ying said: "I don't know about this matter, but Yuan Shu got the news from somewhere, and he actually laid an ambush in Huoyang Mountain before the Xiliang cavalry, and the eight thousand Xiliang iron cavalry were almost completely wiped out, and Duan Xuan was also killed on the spot." β
"Duan Xuan is dead?"
Luo Zheng was even more surprised, and a little embarrassed!
is also the old department of Xiliang, when he was in Luoyang, he was somewhat old.
At the beginning of the year, when he was fighting in Guanzhong, he let him escape with his life and go back, but he didn't want to die under Yuan Shu's ambush.
Luo Zheng frowned and said: "Yuan Shu grass bag one, it is impossible to have such full preparation, if nothing else, someone must have reminded him in advance, so that he can grasp the movements of Duan Xuan's army, so as to lay an ambush!" β
Cheng Ying nodded again and again and said: "This is not enough, I heard that Yuan Shu was angry and personally raised 20,000 troops out of Xuanyuan Pass, and the troops were directly approaching Dagu Pass, the southern gateway of Luoyang, Dong Zhuo has sent the 20,000 troops guarding Luoyang to Dagu Pass to meet Yuan Shu, and now Luoyang has no more troops to adjust." If nothing else, Dong Zhuo's old thief will not be able to escape defeat! β
"Oh, is it true?"
Luo Zheng's spirits lifted, which is good news.
Cheng Ying nodded and said, "It's true! β
Luo Zheng frowned and thought about it, and he didn't know the essentials, so he had to call his soldiers and order: "Go, please Jia Xu come!" β
"Yes!"
The soldiers said yes and immediately ran out.
After a while, Jia Xu hurriedly came and said, "I've seen the general!" β
"Wen He is exempt!"
Luo Zheng waved his hand, told the latest news, and asked, "What does Wen He think?" β
Jia Xu pondered for a moment and muttered: "As the general said, Yuan Shu should not have expected Dong Zhuo to send troops to Yingchuan, most likely someone reminded Yuan Shu, one used Yuan Shu to block the Xiliang cavalry, and the other took the opportunity to pull Yuan Shu into the water." β
Luo Zheng said awe-inspiringly: "What Wen He said is extremely true, it is really true!" β
Jia Xu said: "This trick is wonderful, Yuan Shu not only broke through the eight thousand Xiliang cavalry, but also personally raised the army out of Xuanyuan Pass in a fit of anger, and dragged Dong Zhuo's last army to Dagu Pass, which is really killing two birds with one stone." Dong Zhuo wanted to repeat his old tricks and sent troops out of Yingchuan to plunder the hinterland of the Central Plains, forcing the princes to retreat, but he didn't want to be used by others, not only folded 8,000 cavalry, but also killed his henchmen in battle, and even provoked Yuan Shu. β
Luo Zheng frowned and said: "To be able to play such a beautiful hand, except for Cao Apu, General Ben can't think of anyone else who has such a means." Although Yuan Shao doesn't have this vision, he has a lot of capable people, and it is possible. β
Jia Xu stroked his palm and said: "Yuan Shu's dispatch of troops can be said to affect the whole body, not only dragging Dong Zhuo's troops all the way, but also the princes' coalition army that attacked the Tiger Prison Pass will also rise up and attack, Dong Zhuo will most likely not escape defeat, and the shape is becoming more and more beneficial to the general." β
Luo Zheng nodded again and again and said: "What Wen He said is very true, I didn't expect someone to play such a beautiful hand, and General Ben is worried about the Kwantung princes in vain." Now it seems that there are still a lot of capable people in Kanto! β
Jia Xu and Cheng Ying couldn't answer, so they had to be silent.
Luo Zheng got up and said, "Okay, let's stop here, Gongying can pay close attention to Luoyang's movements!" β
"Yes!"
Cheng Ying surrendered and went out of the court with Jia Xu one after another.
Luoyang North Palace, Deyang Palace.
As soon as the early dynasty began, Henan Yin threw a bombshell again.
Since the imperial court sent troops to suppress the defeat ten days ago, the chaotic people in Pingxian and Gongxian counties have almost swept away, and now it has developed to tens of thousands of scales.
Since the Yellow Turban Uprising in the first year of Zhongping, the situation in Luoyang has never been so erosive.
No matter how powerful the thief is, Luoyang, the capital teacher, is always as stable as Mount Tai.
However, if the army of King Qin attacked all the passes today, Luoyang's troops were emptied, and a little spark burned through the hard shell on the surface of Luoyang, exposing the weakness inside.
In particular, the failure of the imperial court to send troops to suppress it made the spark develop into a prairie fire.
There was a lot of noise in the court, and Dong Zhuo was panicked and the six gods had no master.
Li Ru sighed, and had to stand up for His Majesty. (To be continued......) R527
