Chapter Seventy-Three: Difficult to Travel (3) Ask for a recommendation, ask for a monthly pass!

Who is Wei Yue?

A Romance of the Three Kingdoms has annihilated too much of the truth.

So much so that many people in later generations only knew that there was a Wei Xu, but they didn't know who Wei Yue was.

Even if it is Liu Chuang, I can't remember if there is such a person who has been famous in history. In fact, even in the history books, there is only one sentence recorded about Wei Yue, following Lu Bu to break Zhang Yan in Changshan. What exactly is he capable of? How strong is his skills? Who is he? And even what happened to him in the end? There is no record in the history books, so people naturally merged him and Wei Xu into one person.

However, Wei Xu is Wei Xu, and Wei Yue is Wei Yue.

Speaking of which, Wei Yue is not a descendant of Lu Bu, and originally belonged to the Xiliang Flying Bear Army.

But because his temperament is too upright, he is not liked by Li Dao. Later, Lu Bu returned to Dong Zhuo, and when he saw that Wei Yue was proficient in guns and horses, he gave birth to a heart of love for talent.

So, in order to curry favor with Lu Bu, Li Wei sent Wei Yue to Lu Bu's tent.

But no matter what, Wei Yue was never Lu Bu's cronies.

Therefore, among the eight strong generals, there is no name of Wei Yue, and he has been unknown.

The reason why he was able to serve as Pengcheng Taishou this time was that there was no one under Lu Bu to be available, and secondly, it was recommended by Zhang Liao, so that Wei Yue could be reused.

He wanted to take this opportunity to make a name for himself, but he didn't expect that as soon as he arrived in Pengcheng, a thief would send him to the door.

Early the morning of the second day after the messenger was dispatched, Wei Yue ordered 3,000 foot soldiers and slaughtered Benxiao County. However, Wei Yue was not incompetent, although Qin Yi's analysis was the head of the Dao, and he was also impressed. But before figuring out the true origin of the other party, Wei Yue still maintained a cautious caution. While marching, he still sent a large number of scouts to inquire about the news ahead.

At the same time, he ordered the soldiers and horses to maintain formation and be ready to meet the battle at any time.

However, when he was halfway through, Wei Yue got the news. The other party is indeed a rogue team, and they have surrounded Xiao County.

Wei Yue breathed a sigh of relief, judging from the results of the scout's investigation, this army was obviously very scattered, and it was a typical bandit style......

In that case, you're welcome.

Wei Yue immediately ordered the three armies to speed up their march.

Although Xiao County does not have many troops, with the city walls of Xiao County, it is thought that it can withstand a day.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

From Pengcheng to Xiao County. It's not that far.

If all the cavalry were to travel, it was estimated that it would be half a day's journey.

Xuzhou lacks horses, even in the hands of Lu Bu, the number of cavalry is not too much, and most of them follow Lu Bu's side.

It seems that Zhang Liao, Cao Xing and others are tribunes. They are all mainly foot soldiers. The trapping camp, known as the No. 1 army under Lu Bu's account, was composed entirely of infantry, and there was no cavalry at all. This is also the reason why Lu Bu went to great lengths to buy horses. If the cavalry is infancied, Lu Bu's advantages cannot be fully brought into play. You must know that Lu Bu is best at riding battles, which can be called invincible in the world.

Wei Yue was marching in the morning. By noon, the men and horses were exhausted.

Seeing that the soldiers were in a hurry, Wei Yue also knew that he was in a hurry. Even when you go to Xiao County, it is difficult to make a difference.

Anyway, in the short term, Xiao County will not be in danger...... So Wei Yue ordered the three armies to stop marching and rest in place. Bury the pot to cook.

The soldiers heard and cheered in unison.

The formation suddenly scattered out. Groups of three or five gathered on the side of the road.

Looking at the scattered team, Wei Yue couldn't help but sigh.

Although Xuzhou is good, there are too few elite soldiers...... If it was the Flying Bear Army under the Prime Minister back then, it must have arrived in Xiao County at this moment, and there would never be such a casual phenomenon. But there is no way, most of these soldiers are temporarily recruited, and they have not experienced battlefield fighting before, and many of them are still farmers before they take up arms...... Since the Han Dynasty, it has been difficult for Xuzhou to produce elite soldiers, which has a lot to do with the policies of the Han Dynasty. Gaozu started in Pei County, and Pei County was subordinate to Pengcheng County and has always been favored.

Perhaps, at the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Pengcheng had many elite soldiers.

However, since entering the Han Dynasty, especially since the Eastern Han Dynasty, Xuzhou has been rich in money and grain, and it is a rich land.

Pengcheng County, whose real name is Pengcheng County, belongs to the vassal king, and it is also the place where the world is rich, so the people are lazy and prefer luxury......

In this way, the combat effectiveness of Peng Chengbing can be imagined.

Coupled with Cao Cao's previous bloodbath in Pengcheng, the population of Pengcheng decreased sharply. More than half of the people living in Pengcheng today are homeless, which has led to a weak sense of belonging, low combat effectiveness, and even no training. This is not something that can be improved in a short period of time, nor is it something that he Wei Yue can solve. But even so, in Wei Yue's opinion, these three thousand soldiers and horses were enough to defeat the bandits.

"General, take a saliva."

A servant stepped forward with a water bladder.

"It's a bit weird today, it's September, why is it still so hot?"

Wei Yue took the water bladder, poured a large mouthful of water, and couldn't help but scolded in a low voice: "Let everyone rest as much as possible, and leave in an hour." ”

"Whoa!"

Wei Yue sat in the shade of the tree, drank two sips of water, ate two pieces of dry food, and rested against the trunk of the tree with his eyes closed.

Suddenly, there was a faint sound of horses' hooves in the distance.

He quickly opened his eyes and raised his eyes to look into the distance.

I saw smoke and dust billowing out, and it seemed that a large group of people was rapidly approaching.

Wei Yue's heart moved, and he hurriedly shouted loudly: "All up, all up, prepare for war!" ”

But the problem is that the soldiers have been on the road for so long, and it is good if they don't rest, but after this rest, they feel sore and weak when they get up again.

There was already a Hu who came from leading the horse, and Wei Yue twisted the gun and got on the horse.

He rode his horse down the official road, hoping to make the soldiers quickly excited.

But when I shouted back and forth, I saw the soldiers getting up from the ground one by one, picking up their weapons, and standing in a crooked and diagonal formation, without the slightest spirit.

When Wei Yue saw this, his heart was full of sighs.

He was just about to scold, when the sound of hooves was hurried, and the other party had already arrived.

A general, with a lion skull under his crotch, holding a strong bow. He bent his bow and arrows on his horse, and shot an arrow from the ground.

Nari's arrow burst through the air, letting out a piercing roar.

It was too late, it was too soon, Wei Yue was just about to make a reminder that the sharp arrow had arrived. A rider had just sat down on his horse when he was shot in the face by a sharp arrow that suddenly came, and he rolled over under his fallen horse. Follow, come and gallop the horse. Arrows flew out like beads.

Behind him, more than 100 horsemen followed closely, arrows raining down.

The Peng Cheng soldiers, who were standing at the forefront, were attacked by this rain of arrows like a storm, and there was chaos all of a sudden.

Meanwhile. The other party has also arrived.

Immediately, the general abandoned his bow and spear, and shouted loudly: "Donglai Taishi Ci is here, and the thief will not be beheaded!" ”

The sound came, the horses arrived, and the guns arrived......

The two horsemen stepped forward to stop them, but they were twisted by Tai Shici on the horse, one shot at a time. Pick off the warhorse.

When Wei Yue saw it, he suddenly felt bad.

He was about to go up to stop him when he heard the sound of a thunderous war drum from behind the army. Suddenly kill a detachment of centaurs.

is the leader of the young general, with black armor and black armor, a dragon and a BMW under his crotch, holding a heavy coiling dragon stick. It's just his dragon stick...... Behind him. Hundreds of thugs followed. The young general is infinitely powerful, and the stick is amazing. On the horse, it was not hard to exert force again and again. Wherever they passed, Peng Cheng's soldiers turned on their backs, and no one could stop them. In the distance, smoke and dust can be seen, and God knows how many more people are approaching.

Wei Yue felt a sigh in his heart, and he also felt a fluster.

As soon as he was distracted, he saw that Tai Shici had already come to him, and he twisted the gun and stabbed him.

Tai Shici's crane dance spear was also extremely heavy, reaching sixty or seventy catties. However, such a heavy gun was in his hand, but it was not at all difficult, and it was as fast as lightning. Wei Yue shouted and raised his gun to meet him. Two big guns were fighting in one place, and Tai Shici's eyes couldn't help but light up.

"Good marksmanship!"

This Tai Shi Ci is an expert in making guns, and he can be praised by him, which shows that Wei Yue's skills are not weak.

It's no wonder that the generals who can be valued by Lu Bu are easy to match?

This Wei Yue is also a military general who can enter the stage of refining gods, with outstanding marksmanship and exquisite marksmanship...... After fighting with Tai Shi Ci for more than a dozen rounds, he gradually revealed his invincible situation. Wei Yue was stopped by Tai Shici, but on the other side, Xiao Ling led the cavalry army into the Pengcheng army formation.

He and Liu Chuang converged in the Chinese army, and did not join forces, but passed by and continued to rush and kill.

Peng Cheng's soldiers were very flustered when they came to the battle in a hurry, and secondly, they neglected training, and most of them had never been on the battlefield...... In the face of the situation of thousands of troops galloping, I was confused all of a sudden. In fact, it is also a microcosm of most wars of this era. In later generations, the shocking scene of thousands of troops and horses arraying, and then arrows raining down, shouting 'strong wind, strong wind', is actually not too much.

This kind of scene will only appear when the elite troops of the two sides are in a decisive battle.

Most of the time, the confrontation is actually to see who can stabilize the qi and who can stabilize the position...... Whichever side is in chaos first is doomed to failure.

Therefore, although there have been hundreds of thousands of battles between tens of thousands and millions of soldiers and horses in history, only a small number of soldiers actually fought in real battles.

Liu Chuang's soldiers and horses, starting from Liyang, ran all the way.

At the beginning of Ruyin and arrived in Pengcheng County, although the soldiers did not say that they had experienced a hundred battles, this experience was far from being comparable to that of Pengcheng soldiers.

Peng Chengbing came from a thousand miles of travel, and Liu Chuang's troops waited for work.

In addition, Wei Yue was entangled by Tai Shici, and he couldn't get out of his body to command the battle at all, so that the Peng Cheng soldiers only resisted for a cup of tea before they collapsed.

Of the three thousand soldiers and horses, only two or three hundred were killed.

But there were as many as 1,000 escapers...... The remaining soldiers and horses were either wounded or captured, and they were no longer able to continue fighting.

Wei Yue wanted to escape several times, but was stopped by Tai Shici.

At this time, Wei Yue already knew that the defeat was decided, but he was unwilling to be caught.

Liu Chuang dragged the stick, came to the front of the formation, and watched Tai Shici and Wei Yue confront.

He secretly marveled at himself, and couldn't help asking, "Ziyi, who is this?" ”

"It's that Pengcheng Wei Yue."

Tai Shi Ci was at ease, and even had the spirit to answer Liu Chuang's questions.

Wei Yue only felt extremely ashamed and angry, and roared, the big gun tricks changed, and the guns and guns were continuous, like a storm, obviously to fight with Tai Shici.

"Ziyi, it's almost over, we still have to gather our soldiers and horses and rush to Pengcheng.

I want to come to Uncle Hai and they have already succeeded at this time, don't talk to him anymore, if you don't do it, then I will be on it! ”

Tai Shi Ci listened. Laugh.

The big gun then changed its moves, revealing an endless wild air. Wei Yue's marksmanship, if it is compared to the surging river, then Tai Shici's marksmanship at this time is like a monstrous wave. In only three or five rounds, Wei Yue couldn't resist it, and was killed by Tai Shici to the point of sweating, and the wolf was unbearable.

The moment the two horses staggered, Tai Shici suddenly handed over his left hand. Leaned out and grabbed the big belt around Wei Yue's waist.

He suddenly exerted his strength and stood up on the lion's skull.

"Get me down."

Wei Yue exclaimed, was picked up from his horse by Taishi Cisheng, and then fell to the ground.

Tai Shi Ci fell. There can be doorways.

After Wei Yue landed, the bones in his whole body seemed to be scattered, and he couldn't exert his strength at all. He snorted, still trying to struggle.

Zhou Cang and Pei Shao, who had long been impatient on the side, stepped forward, one stepped on Wei Yue, the other tied him up, and then dragged him in front of Liu Chuang.

"Wei Yue?"

"It's a certain house!"

"Listen to the accent. You don't seem to be from the Central Plains. ”

Wei Yue was not afraid at all, "A certain Wuwei Gu Zang person, the dog thief Hugh wants to say more, and it will fall into your hands today." If you want to kill or chop, just come, and don't humiliate a certain family. ”

Wu Wei, Gu Zang?

Liu Chuang was stunned for a moment, isn't that Xiliang?

But. He didn't get angry because of the rudeness in Wei Yue's words, but laughed and said, "You guy." It's a tough nut.

Someone, bring him to me, and let's go to Pengcheng. ”

It was only at this time that Wei Yue discovered that the number of soldiers and horses that Liu Chuang attacked him was not as large as he imagined.

Tai Shici's cavalry is about 100 people, and Liu Chuang's men are only more than 1,000 people...... As for the billowing smoke and dust, it was an illusion created by Liu Chuang's order. He borrowed from the suspicious tactics used by Zhang Fei at the Dangyang Bridgehead in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Ordered people to raise dust in the rear, which at first glance looked like thousands of troops. Peng Cheng's soldiers were caught off guard, and they were also frightened by this scene, so that they became a mess.

Wei Yue was secretly frightened, the other party didn't seem to be the Dangshan thief.

When he was helped onto the horse, he couldn't help but ask, "Wait, who are the soldiers and horses?" ”

"Don't you know who I am?"

"I don't know!"

"You don't even know who I am, so you dare to lead your troops here...... Hehehe! ”

Liu Chuang's words made Wei Yue's face red, and he was speechless for a long time. Yes, how can there be any reason to be undefeated if you rashly send troops without even figuring out the origin of the other party? He smiled wryly and didn't ask. But Pei Shao couldn't help but say: "My son-in-law is Liu Chuang." ”

"Liu Chuang? Isn't that the slave who betrays his master? ”

"Bold!"

Zhou Cang was furious when he heard this, and scolded sharply: "Elk Zizhong is talking nonsense, and you can also be gullible."

My son-in-law is the son of Liu Tao, Liu Ziqi, Marquis of Zhongling, and is a relative of the emperor. What kind of virtue does he have to dare to say that my son-in-law is his slave? A certain family should know that he bullied the Han clan relatives, what is the point? What a thief! ”

Elk's reputation in Xuzhou is too loud.

So much so that many people will believe what he says......

After Liu Bei's defeat in Xuzhou, Lu Zhu did not have time to escape.

However, relying on his identity as a strong man in Xuzhou, Lu Bu did not embarrass him, but worshiped Lu Zhu to drive for Xuzhou and stayed in Xiapi City.

It was precisely for this reason that Wei Yue knew Liu Chuang's name.

Originally, he was still a little disdainful.

But hearing Zhou Cang say this, Wei Yue was also taken aback.

"You said Liu Chuang, the son of the Marquis of Zhongling?"

Liu Tao used to be Jing Zhaoyin and sat in Chang'an City.

Wei Yue was in Liangzhou, and he had also heard of Liu Tao's name, and knew that he was a proud and world-renowned celebrity.

Actually, what do you say Liu Tao has done? Or what special contribution will be left for future generations? Not really......

But at that time, the Ten Standing Servants were powerful.

Those who dare to work against the ten permanent servants must not be idle.

It is precisely for this reason, coupled with Liu Tao's outstanding learning, that it is enough to make him a model for scholars at that time.

Even Wei Yue, when he heard about Liu Chuang's identity, he couldn't help but admire.

Zhou Cang puffed out his chest and looked proud, "That's natural, my son-in-law suffered hardships back then, but there is a genealogy as proof...... If it weren't for the traitor's deception, then Cao Cao sent troops to block it, my son-in-law is now afraid that he has arrived in Yingchuan to return to his ancestors and recognize his ancestors, so will you still be Pengcheng? ”

The implication is to tell Wei Yue: My son-in-law beat Pengcheng to give you face.

From the time he knew that Liu Chuang was the son of Liu Tao, Wei Yue's arrogance was gone, and even his momentum was a little weaker.

He swallowed his saliva and looked at Liu Chuang in the distance, showing admiration......

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Originally, Liu Chuang said that he would take Pengcheng, but Wei Yue didn't believe it yet.

But when it was dark, when he was escorted to Pengcheng City, he learned that Pengcheng was occupied by Liu Chuang's people shortly after he left.

Bu Qiu offered a plan to let Xu Chu and Shi Jian pretend to be Wei Yue's tribes, and falsely said that they came in the name of Wei Yue.

Qin Yi, who stayed in Pengcheng, did not suspect fraud, so he opened the city gate.

Xu Chu and Shi Lian immediately led their troops to occupy the gate of Pengcheng...... Then Liu Yong, Guan Hai and others, who were ambushed outside the city, ambushed and captured Pengcheng in one fell swoop. As for the prison soldier Qin Yi, after hearing that the city gate was lost, he didn't even resist and fled in a hurry.

As a result, Liu Chuang almost took Peng Cheng without blood.

After occupying Pengcheng, LΓΌ Dai immediately led people to pacify the people in the city, and ordered people to open the granaries of Pengcheng and distribute grain.

In these days, the best way to appease the people is to distribute food. You must know that with Liu Bei and Lu Bu fighting each other, Xuzhou has been in decline. The two sides clashed again in the summer, so that in many places the grain rotted in the fields before it could be harvested. Grain prices in Xuzhou have also skyrocketed. At the beginning of the year, a stone of corn was 180 yuan, but now it has risen to nearly 300 yuan.

Such a high price of grain naturally makes the people dissatisfied.

In many places, there was a large-scale migration of people, and many wealthy families went south to Guangling, and even crossed the river to Jiangdong and other places to take refuge.

Therefore, after Lu Dai opened a warehouse to release grain, it was easy to gain the favor of the local people.

Seeing this situation, Lu Dai ordered people to post notices and recruit troops.

Because he knew very well in his heart that although Peng Cheng had been taken by Liu Chuang, next, they would face Lu Bu's crazy revenge.

Lu Bu will never sit idly by and watch Pengcheng be captured.

He couldn't bear it, otherwise he would be looked down upon.

The next battle is the real test for Liu Chuang.

Therefore, when the soldiers were resting in the city, the hall of the Pengcheng Mansion was brightly lit, and everyone showed a dignified look.

Pengcheng has been captured, what should be done next?
