Chapter Forty-Eight: The Tide Has Turned
If there is any, it is Dongjun Buji, whose power is slightly okay. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Because, he occupies the key road from Henan to Hebei, but he does not have many people.
The main reason is that the place where he is located is close to Sizhou, and the people are still interested in the imperial court, and it is a place of four wars, so the troops are greatly damaged.
Therefore, the soldiers in his hands are full, and there are less than 2 million people, which is a pity!
In addition, his reputation is not great, and there are not many players who even turn to him, which is very miserable!
Of course, there are other, smaller Yellow Turban forces. However, it is no longer a climate, and it is actually very appropriate to call it a word "remnants of the yellow turban".
On this day, Zhao Hong raised his tent, beat drums and gathered generals, and all the civil and military forces gathered in the Chinese army.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Runan Bocai and Peng Tuoqu Shuai have been besieged by the imperial army recently, and they have asked me for help, I want to send troops, I don't know what the generals think?"
Zhao Hong is like this, even if he has an idea, he spreads it out and asks the opinions of all the brothers, and he is never arbitrary.
"Don't be handsome! Although the yellow turban in the world is a family, this wave has never had anything to do with us, and when he gained power, he never thought of the benefits of us, and now he has lost, so he asked us for help. There is no precedent for the Yellow Turban departments to support each other! It can be said that when we went out to the army, it was thankless, and we were accidentally intercepted by someone and ended Wancheng, and we had a home at that time and couldn't go back! ”
This person is a good brother who started a family with Zhao Hong, so even if Zhao Hong has already put forward his opinion, he still opposes it. Fortunately, Zhao Hong didn't mind this at all.
"Yes! Oh, yes! Li Shuai is so right! We helped him fight the imperial army, we lost our troops, shed blood and sweat, and did not have the slightest benefit, but he was happy and happy. I don't think it's possible to do this kind of unprofitable business!
If this wave is really broken up by the imperial court, come to our Wancheng, you are a large number of adults, and it is not the best to accept them! In this way, you are the number one force under the banner of General Tiangong! ”
Seeing that Zhao Hong did not object to this Vice Marshal Li's opinion, some veterans who followed Zhao Hong also echoed one by one.
Speaking of which, it's not that these deputy marshals are short-sighted, but that they are used to being comfortable and don't want to go out of the city to fight
。 It's not that they're afraid of war, it's that they're unwilling to shed blood and sweat for forces that are not their own.
"Li Shuai, this is a mistake! Now that our Yellow Turban Army is united, if they perish, we will be the only ones left! When the time comes, the object of the imperial court's attack will inevitably turn to us. How can we resist it when the time comes? The young general thinks that it is better for us to support the handsome Bocai. ”
A young general at the bottom of the list stood up and suggested, and naturally got a lot of nods from people.
"Humph! You and other juniors, but the defeated generals under Bocai, have to be taken in by the marshal of my family, I don't know how to be grateful, but I still miss the old master, hoping that the new master will rescue the old master, isn't this eating inside and out? ”
When Vice Marshal Li heard that this kid was talking, he said that what he said was wrong. So, his face sank, but he found that this person was a new veteran of Bocai, so he had this hat buttoned down.
When the last young general heard Vice Marshal Li say this, he was so frightened that he trembled, his face turned pale, and he didn't dare to speak anymore!
"Li Shuai, Hugh has to talk nonsense, everyone is from a bitter background, and if they can sit together, they are all their own brothers, and you can't talk nonsense like this, it hurts everyone's harmony. Originally, I couldn't make up my mind about today's matter, so I asked everyone to discuss it, express their opinions, and talk about things.
No matter what kind of advice, as long as it makes sense, we must follow it. Actually, what General Zhang said just now is very reasonable, and I also think that the relationship between us and Marshal Bocai is a cold relationship! If he doesn't fall, he can help me drag the imperial army, if he falls, even if we take in the remnants of the army and strengthen our strength, we will have to face the imperial army! ”
Zhao Hong is not a leader elected by everyone, and he speaks impartially, making the new generals and old brothers comfortable.
"The big marshal has a point. We sent troops to help Bo Caiqu Shuai, just to help myself! This favor should be helped, it must be helped! ”
One general came out of the ranks and spoke out loud his opinion.
As soon as these words came out, there were no other opinions in the audience.
It turned out that the person who spoke was the number two person in Wancheng, Sun Xia.
Sun Xia was originally a general who followed Zhang Mancheng. After Zhang Mancheng's death, he also promoted Zhao Hong with all his might, so that Zhao Hong could sit in the position of leader.
Therefore, his position in the Yellow Turban Army is still very important, it can be said that he is second only to Zhao Hong, and he is also an old man.
As soon as he spoke, moreover, he had the same point of view as Dashuai. So, unless anyone can say a word, who will dare to say more?
"But, my lord, though we must send troops. However, there is a difficulty in front of us that needs to be solved urgently, otherwise, we will not be able to send troops! ”
This Sun Xia continued.
"What?"
"But it is the army of Zhangling entrenched around our Wancheng. These armies were all cavalry, and they rarely fought me head-on, and they all ran away after the battle. We could not pursue, and we were ambushed when we pursued. And, as you know, some time ago we sent a large number of cavalry to destroy them, but we fell for their evil spells and almost wiped them out.
Therefore, Ben will be worried that if we send troops, there will be fewer troops, and we will not be able to contain the imperial army, not to mention, we may be harassed by these cavalry, and even eaten in one bite! And there are more troops, but I am worried about the safety of Wancheng! ”
Li Tang's cavalry is difficult, but the Yellow Turban Army in Wancheng has a deep understanding. Therefore, once Sun Xia said this, all the generals took a breath of cold air! They all remembered that it was these cavalry from Zhangling County that suppressed their millions of troops and did not dare to go out of the city.
Nowadays, there is no shortage of grain and grass in Wancheng. However, in the long run, Wancheng's grain and grass will run out one day, and they won't have to be attacked by others, and they will all have to collapse with hunger at that time!
"Hmmm! I have to worry about this! I don't know where these cavalry in Zhangling County came from, their combat power is so strong, and they have been ambushed several times. It seems that they have capable people in the army! If we have too few people left, it is not impossible to break the city! It's okay not to send troops, is it? ”
"How can there be eggs under the nest! If we don't send troops, we can hold out for some time! If you send troops, the consequences are unpredictable! ”
……
There was a sudden silence in the big tent of the Chinese army, war, death, from the time these people dared to rise up to rebel, these things have long been put aside.
The Yellow Turban generals ate meat, drank wine, played with women, killed people and set fire to slaughter thousands of troops, and now they are as casual as the blink of an eye, what else are they afraid of?
However, people can not be afraid of death, but they will be afraid of waiting for death. This kind of taste is much worse than being killed!
It's okay to have no heart and no lungs, but I'm afraid someone will understand! Before today, everyone was in a mess, and they didn't want to think about the predicament they faced, anyway, if they had wine, they would drink, if they had meat, if they had meat, they would play, and if they killed people, they would cut it, and they would have no heart and lungs! The sky is falling down and the top is high, I'm afraid of a hair! The handsome man is not afraid, will he be afraid?
However, when we talk about it today, we don't understand the various situations without discussing it, but when we talk about it, everyone understands it.
After all, you don't have to think about it yourself, someone else will tell you. The current situation is that if you go out of the city, you will be played to death by others, and if you don't go out of the city, you will be trapped to death! Now, their lives are out of their own hands, and they can only rely on miracles!
Just when the pessimistic mood was spreading, suddenly, I heard a commotion outside, and the guards escorted one person to the Chinese army's tent.
Zhao Hong heard the commotion, so he asked:
"What's the noise?"
Some guards had already understood the situation, and when they saw Zhao Hong asking, they hurriedly replied:
"Marshal Qiyu, listening to the officers and soldiers patrolling the city, they caught a fine work. Moreover, this person said wildly, we are about to hand it over to the handsome! ”
"Oh? What's going on here? ”
"Dashuai, this madman came to the city gate alone and asked to see you, Dashuai, saying that he had something important to discuss. When the patrol saw that the man was alone and unarmed, he laid down the hanging basket and pulled him to the top of the wall. Under careful questioning, this person actually spoke wildly, so he was taken down by the officers and soldiers patrolling the city and escorted to the big tent of the Chinese army. ”
"This person has something important to discuss with me? Still talking wildly? What did he say? ”
"The big one forgives the sins, and the little one doesn't dare to say it."
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
"This madman dares to say that he is here to save the life of the handsome, isn't it arrogant? If it weren't for the fact that we hadn't figured out his origins and didn't deal with him without permission, we would have beaten him to death with a stick a long time ago. ”
"Hehe, it's really arrogant! Dare to say that he came to save my life, his tone is not small! ”
"Yes, Sir. I think this man is just a trickster, and when I go out and order the people to kill him. ”
"Wait! Bring this man in, I'll ask first, and then it's not too late to kill. ”
"Order!"
Speaking of which, if someone is inferior on weekdays and says that he wants Zhao Hong's life, Zhao Hong will definitely ignore it. However, today is a little different, some things are becoming clearer and clearer, although he is living a chic life now, but how long can this good life last? Will there be a life left at that time? It's really hard to say!
I think that at the beginning, when he followed the Tiangong general Zhang Jiao to raise troops, there were dozens of large and small commanders, as well as hundreds of various leaders, where are they now? Even the god Shi Zhang Mancheng Daqu Shuai, didn't he end up with a dead family?
Therefore, today I heard that someone had come to save his life, and it was like seeing a black cloud in the desert. Although, it may not be able to rain, but after all, it is a hope, isn't it?
After a while, he saw that the guards pushed out one person to come.
I saw that this person was about eighteen or nineteen years old, and he was neither tall nor short, and he was also beautiful. I saw that as soon as this person entered the big tent, he laughed and said:
"Where is Zhao Daqu Shuai?"
Zhao Hong looked at it, this person didn't recognize it? Moreover, this person was so young, and he was suddenly disappointed in his heart, and wondered how could this person save himself? It doesn't seem like enough for a grandstander.
In fact, since Zhao Hongwei came, I don't know how many people have asked to see him with all kinds of shocking and alarmist excuses. In the end, I just want to seek some other benefits through myself!
There are very few people who are really useful!
And useless people have a common characteristic, that is, they are young!
