Chapter 137: The Coalition Collapses
The two armies fought for a night, because it was dark, the damage on both sides was not very large, but Xue Jiajun had already mentioned that he had deployed a group of medical soldiers who studied with Dong Feng in the medical hall, and his combat effectiveness was not bad.
On the other hand, the Xiliang soldiers are corpses left behind.
Xue Rengui returned to Luoyang.
The next day, they repaid Cao Cao for pursuing Dong Zhuo, and the two sides were defeated in Xingyang. Fortunately, with the help of Xue Jiajun and Zhao Yun, he was able to escape.
Yuan Shao let people come into contact with the village, gathered people to drink, and relieved Cao Cao's boredom.
Between drinking, Cao Cao sighed and said: "I began to want to prosper and get rid of the disaster of Dong Zhuo for the country." Since you have come here with righteousness, Cao Cao's original intention is to trouble the first brother to lead the army in Hanoi, in Mengjin and Suojube; The generals defended Chenggao, occupied Aocang, blocked Yuan and Taigu, and controlled their dangers; Highway led the army of Nanyang, stationed in Dan, analysis. , enter Wuguan, and use the earthquake three auxiliaries. They all built deep ditches and high fortifications, did not fight with the enemy, and added suspicious troops to show the situation in the world. By killing rebellion with obedience, stability can be established. Now hesitating to move forward, greatly disappointing the expectations of the world. Cao Cao is ashamed! ”
Yuan Shao and the others had nothing to answer. Soon, after the dismissal, Cao Cao saw that Yuan Shao and others had different intentions, and it was estimated that they could not succeed, so he led his army to Yangzhou.
Gongsun Zhan said to Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei: "Yuan Shao is powerless, and there will be changes after a long time." We're still going to withdraw our troops. So he walked to the north of the village.
Go to the plains, let Liu Bei be the prime minister of the plains, and go to defend the land and raise the army. And the state is too shou Liu Dai, and asks the East County too shou Qiao hat to borrow grain. Qiao Mao refused, and Lu Dai led the troops into the hat camp, killed Qiao Mao, and surrendered to all of them. Yuan Shao saw that everyone was scattered, so he led his troops to pull out the village, left Luoyang, and went to the eastern part of the country.
Yuan Shao's original intention was to occupy Luoyang, but Luoyang was already in ruins, there was no emperor here, rebuild Luoyang, and then move the people here, these spent time, manpower, and financial resources were enough for Yuan Shao to build a more majestic city than Luoyang, Yuan Shao had to give up the intention of occupying Luoyang, and it was too far away from his base camp Bohai, and Yuan Shao was simply beyond the reach of the whip.
In this way, the Eighteenth Route Coalition Army that crusaded against Dong Zhuo scattered and left.
Although Xue Rengui had expected this moment a long time ago, he also rode his horse in front of the broken Luoyang City, and he couldn't help but sigh. War is still inevitable in the world.
The drama next to him found that Xue Rengui was sighing, and he also rode over, and asked Xue Rengui and said, "Lord, what's the matter?" ”
Xue Rengui said: "Now that the heroes have led their troops back to their own territory, they are all divided by the heroes. The world still can't avoid chaos. ”
Xi Zhicai comforted Xue Rengui and said: "Only in troubled times do heroes emerge, this is the time for the lord to fulfill his grand wish." ”
Xue Rengui didn't speak anymore, the whole army rested in Luoyang, and the next day they also withdrew their troops and returned to Yanzhou, and what was left behind in Luoyang, that is, after the Luoyang Rebellion, the people who survived moved to Yanzhou with the help of Xue's army.
However, there is a very strange scene, most of the homeless people here want to join the Xue family's army, saying that they want to follow Xue Rengui to crusade against Dong Zhuo, so as to avenge their families!
Xue Rengui didn't promise them, just said good words to appease them first, and then let them go to Yanzhou, and the rest of the things were handed over to the strategists under his command to solve, Xue Rengui didn't want to bother with these things himself, otherwise why would he raise so many strategists?
Let's talk about Liu Biao, the history of Jingzhou, the word Jingsheng, the people of Gaoping in Shanyang, so the royal family of the Han Dynasty; Since childhood, he likes to make friends and make friends with seven well-known people, and was called "Jiangxia Bajun" at that time.
The seven people: Runan Chen Xiang, the word Zhonglin; Fan Pan of the same county, the word Meng Bo; Kong Yu, a native of Lu, the character Shiyuan; Bohai Fan Kang, the word Zhongzhen, Shanyang Tanshi, the word friend; The people of the same county are thrifty, and the characters are frugal; Nanyang Cen is dumb, the word is filial piety. Liu Biao became friends with these seven people; There are Yanping people Kuai and Kuai Yue, and Xiangyang people Cai Mao as supplements.
Liu Biao had a gap with Sun Jian before, Liu Biao was the assassin of Jingzhou, and although Sun Jian was the Taishou of Changsha, he did not listen to Liu Biao's command and enclosed the land himself as the king. Originally, Liu Biao customized a strategy, if he didn't participate in the coalition to defeat Dong Zhuo, he would almost declare that he was in the world, and Sun Jian had to fight him, that is, to join the coalition, or to make a name for himself.
Liu Biao was very angry, and now he heard that Sun Jian had come back with his soldiers and horses, and he asked Kuai Yue and Cai Mao to lead 10,000 troops to cut off Sun Jian.
As soon as Sun Jian's army arrived, Kuai Yue set up his formation and rode his horse in front to stop Sun Jian's troops.
Sun Jian asked, "Why did Kuai Xenodu lead his troops to cut off our retreat?" ”
Kuai Yue said: "As a courtier of the Han Dynasty, you are still a subordinate of my lord, not to mention that my lord is also a relative of the Han family. Why don't you listen to the arrangement of my lord Liu Biao, and dare to send troops without authorization. Hurry up and leave your sigil and troops, and I'll let you go!" ”
Sun Jian was furious and said: "Liu Biao is a relative of the Han family, the emperor should send troops to help when he is in trouble, but he actually ordered the whole army not to send troops, I went to send troops to participate in the coalition against Dong Zhuo, one is for the sake of the world's righteousness, and the other is to make my so-called Jingzhou assassin look better." I can't believe you guys are so ignorant! ”
Kuai Yue said: "Bold Sun Jian, you still dare to discuss the lord without leaving a head!" ”
Sun Jian saw Kuai Yue rushing over, and he disdained to do anything with him, and appointed Huang Gai to fight.
Cai Mao came to greet him with a knife. After a few rounds of fighting, Huang Gai swung the whip in his hand and hit Qiao Mao, hitting the heart guard. Qiao Mao spat out a mouthful of blood, turned back his horse and fled, and Sun Jian took advantage of the victory to kill the border.
Suddenly, at this time, the golden drums behind the mountain sounded in unison, so Liu Biao personally led the army to come.
Sun Jian saluted on horseback and said, "Why does Jingsheng believe the words of some ordinary people, and the neighboring counties are forcing each other? ”
Liu Biao said: "You don't obey my discipline, you are Changsha Taishou, I am Jingzhou Thorn History!" Is it about to rebel? ”
Sun Jian said: "If I have these thoughts, let me die under the sword and arrow in the future!" ”
Liu Biao said: "If you want me to believe, hand over the military power of Changsha County, or let me send someone to hold half of your tiger talisman, and control the troops of Changsha County!" “、
Sun Jian said angrily: "Liu Biao, don't give you face, you don't, don't annoy me!" “
Liu Biao also said angrily: "It seems that you are determined to rebel!" Do you want to try the blades of my Jingzhou's soldiers and horses? ”
Sun Jian laughed and said, "What kind of ability do you have, you are so self-conscious!" Changsha Erlang, what should we do if someone bullies us like this? ”
The Changsha army shouted: "Kill! Kill! Kill! ”
was about to fight, but Liu Biao retreated. Sun Jian rushed to the horse, and the ambush soldiers behind the two mountains rose together, and Cai Mao and Kuai Yue rushed behind him, trapping Sun Jian in the core.
However, it was said that Sun Jian was surrounded by Liu Biao, but fortunately, thanks to Zu Mao, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang, the four generals escaped with their lives, broke most of their troops, and led the troops back to Jiangdong. Since then, Sun Jian and Liu Biao have a grudge.
Let's say that Yuan Shao was stationed in Hanoi and lacked food and grass. Jizhou Mu Han Fu sent people to deliver food for the army.
The strategist Feng Ji persuaded Yuan Shao and said: "The big husband is all over the world and gallops the country. But they have to wait for others to bring food for food! Jizhou is a place with a lot of money and grain, why don't you take it for your own use = there is it? ”
Yuan Shao said: "I don't have a good way now. ”
Feng Ji said: "Now we can send a letter to Gongsun Zhan, ordering the army to seize Jizhou, and about to attack Jizhou, and then the lord will divide Jizhou equally with him." Gongsun Chan will definitely send troops. Han Fu is a scheming person, and he will definitely ask the lord to take charge of the affairs of the state; to resist Gongsun Zhan, take things in the middle, and Jizhou can be at your fingertips. ”
Yuan Shao was very happy and ordered someone to write a letter to Gongsun Zhan to explain the matter. Gongsun Zhan got the letter, and saw that he would jointly attack Jizhou, and then divide Jizhou with Yuan Shao.
