Chapter 260: Absorption of the White Wave Army

Xiao Da said with his head! "Lei Cai lightly wounded one hundred and twenty-four people, two hundred dead, no serious injuries, of which eighty-seven of the lightly wounded have been treated and can go into battle again, and the rest of the combat strength may be weakened. You can't re-enter the Thunder Cavalry, but you can join the Normal Army. Yunqi lightly injured 36 people, and no serious injuries or deaths. Pangulis, forty-six dead, no serious injuries. No minor injuries. Cavalry troops, one thousand and one hundred and twenty dead. Of the 2,177 wounded, 628 were seriously wounded and could not be used in the battlefield again, while the rest were minor wounded and could be returned to battle after medical treatment. Incorporate the Flying Bear Army. Three thousand four hundred and twenty people, the cavalry of Xiliang. More than 26,000 people. The remaining 7,000 or so Flying Bears were killed at the hands of the Thundercloud Riders and Pangulis. The Xiliang cavalry suffered more than 15,000 casualties, including more than 4,000 minor wounds. There were more than 6,000 dead remaining, and more than 3,000 were seriously wounded and could not be fought again

After listening to this, Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "The statistics are very detailed." ”

Meng Da bowed his hand and said, "Thank you for your appreciation." ”

Zhang Xiu pondered for a moment and said: "The thunder cavalry suffered the largest loss in this battle, more than one-fifth, but it resisted the attack of the Flying Bear Army and nearly 30,000 Xiliang cavalry head-on, so it is normal for such a loss." If our army is half an hour late, I am afraid that the whole army will be annihilated. This battle should be rewarded for the thundercloud horse, and after the orphan of the warrior returns to Wancheng, Zidu must also arrange it properly, and then let Zilong select troops from the army of 100 generals to supplement the thundercloud horse, and the pawn can also be surrendered, and the same is true for Pangu Lishi. In addition, let Shen Tan lead an army of 10,000 tomorrow to escort all the soldiers back to Wancheng, and let Wenyuan train them into an army again. ”

Meng Da heard it and said: "Lord, in this way, there are only more than 10,000 people here, just afraid."

Zhang Xiu smiled: "It's okay, the enemy is gone." There are only a rabble like the White Polish Army, and if they dare to come, they can be broken in just one battle. According to the Shadow's intelligence. Cao Cao was only afraid that it would arrive in a few days, so he deliberately let the Son of Heaven and his party go and let him vote for Cao Cao. Cao Cao has become the Son of Heaven, his goal has been achieved, and he will not rashly offend the general. You must know that Xuzhou still has his great enemy

Meng Da heard this, and immediately responded: "The lord is wise.

Zhang Xiu smiled: "Zidu has worked hard, let's go back and rest." ”

Meng Da answered and retreated.

There was nothing to say all night, and when the fourth watch of the second day, Zhang Xiu, who was asleep, heard a noise outside the tent. The warrior's alertness woke him up in pain. Asked aloud, "What's the noise?"

The guard responded: "Back to the lord, Mr. Jia, Mr. Fa and General Zhao ask to see me." ”

When Zhang Xiu heard this, his sleepiness immediately dissipated, and he hurriedly said, "Please." ”

After a while, Jia Xu, Fa Zheng and Zhao Yun entered the Zhang embroidery tent together. Zhang Xiu asked, "Why did Wenhe, Xiaozhi, and Zilong come together?" ”

Zhao Yun responded first: "Return to the lord." The spies found out the news that Li Le of Baibo in Hedong had prepared a big boat, and there were signs of crossing the river. ”

After hearing this, Zhang Xiu frowned and said, "Li Le crosses the river?" ”

Zhao Yun said: "Back to the lord, this is the sin of the cloud. On the same day, he negligently let Li Le escape and fled back to Hedong, so that he could regroup his army and make a comeback. ”

Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Zilong is not to blame for this matter, Li Le is cunning, and when he saw that the situation was wrong, he threw down his robe and ran away." Zilong wants to protect the Son of Heaven again. What a sin. ”

Fa Zheng smiled at this time: "My lord, General Zilong's move is wrong. ”

Zhang Xiu heard it and said curiously: "What do you mean by filial piety?" Fa Zheng said: "The Baibo army has been fighting in the Taihang Mountains for a long time, starting from Dong Zhuo, and has successively asked Li Xuan and Xu Rongshu to clear and suppress them, but they cannot be eliminated. Now that General Zilong has let Li Le go, his thief heart is not dead and he still wants to send troops to rob the Son of Heaven, and the Lord Justice can take this opportunity to wipe out the Baibo army and eliminate the trouble of Baibo forever. Isn't it wonderful that the white waves have been removed, and the lord has the rich land east of the river. ”

After Fa Zheng finished speaking, Jia Xu next to him added: "Li Le led the army to attack, just giving the Son of Heaven another chance to escape, the Lord Justice can not be defended, let the Son of Heaven escape, give this double-edged sword to Cao Cao." The lord can immediately take the subordinate and important places in Guanzhong. ”

After listening to this, Zhang Xiu nodded and smiled: "What Xiaozhi and Wenhe said is very true, but I don't know when this Li Le will cross the river?" ”

Fa Zheng said: "The best time to cross the river was last night, and yesterday our army fought with the Xiliang army. Although Shengran was very tired, if the White Polish army had crossed the river and attacked last night, I am afraid it would have been a fierce battle. However, the military discipline of the White Polish Army was loose. The spies were very slow to deliver the news, and they were afraid that Li Le would only receive the news of the battle between our army and the Xiliang army yesterday this morning, otherwise Li Le would not have released the boat at this time, thinking that Li Le would let the army cross the river tonight

Zhang Xiu heard this, nodded and said, "Crossing the river tonight?" Reasonable"

Jia Xu smiled and said: "Whether it is our army or the Xiliang army, they are all cavalry, and the Baibo army is just a foot pawn. And the weapons are not sophisticated, and the plain field battle, with its strength, should not be in the hands of our army or the Xiliang army. He wanted to rob the Son of Heaven to drive, only to panic, with lightning speed to rob the Son of Heaven and then cross the river to the river "Now the Yellow River is in the flood season, our army can not cross the river without a boat, since the Yellow River is a natural danger, the Baibo army can calmly arrange defenses in the east of the river to resist our army." ”

Zhang Xiu heard this, nodded and said, "What Wen He said is reasonable. However, since the White Polish army is preparing to cross the river tonight. Why did the ship's whereabouts be revealed?

Fa Zheng said: "I think there are two reasons for this, one is that Li Le was careless and leaked his whereabouts, and the other is that Li Le wanted to confuse our army, so that our army could not find out where he crossed the river. ”

Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said, "Confuse our army? What is the use, if it wants to attack at night, it should cross the river at the closest place to the Son of Heaven's chariot, according to the distance. Now it has entered the boundary of Luoyang, and with the progress of the Son of Heaven's car, although it cannot enter Luoyang tonight, it is not far away. If he wants to cross the river, he is best selected as a ferry near Mengjin. ”

Jia Xu said with a smile: "What the lord said is reasonable. Therefore, it is believed that Li Le did not deliberately leak his whereabouts to confuse our army, but in fact he accidentally leaked his whereabouts. Li Le was only born as a bandit, although he has Xiao Zhiran's mind. And although the fierce generals under the command of the lord cannot be compared to **, they are very different from Li Le. If the opponents this time are Cao Cao, the Yuan brothers and others, it may be a plan to leak their whereabouts. However, the opponent is only Li Le, and the lord can rest assured. Don't be presumptuous. It is only necessary to prepare for an ambush at the ferry near Mengjin, and when Li Le's army crosses the river, he will attack it halfway, which can defeat Li Le. After Jia Xu finished speaking, Zhao Yun nodded and agreed with Jia Xu's words. At this time, Fa Zheng said: "I just thought that this time the lord broke Li Le. The White Polish Army should be incorporated as much as possible.

It must be known that on the same day, Cao Cao incorporated one million yellow turbans in Qingzhou, selected 300,000 elite and strong training into an army, and called the Qingzhou soldiers, although they were not a first-class and first-class strong army of the Han Dynasty, but they should not be taken lightly. The White Bo Army has been active in the Taihang Mountains near Hedong since Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, and has grown stronger and stronger after many purgies. In addition, the Baibo Yellow Turban is not like the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, the old and the weak are not distinguished, most of its army are young and strong, and the lord only needs to practice a little after being recruited, and he will not be weaker than Cao Cao's Qingzhou soldiers. It is necessary to know that after this battle, the lord will be able to obtain the land of Guanzhong and Sili, and it is not enough to defend with the previous troops

After speaking, Fa Zheng pointed to the map hanging next to Zhang Xiu and said, "My lord, look at the map." If the lord is subordinate to the land of Luoyang, the first line of Tiger Prison Pass and Hanoi County should be arranged to defend Cao Cao in Chongzhou and Yuan Shao in Hebei. Extinguish the white waves. After Hedong County, it is necessary to let Yu Taihang. The pulse area and the army of concubines in Jiguan to prevent Yuan Shao's army from moving south from Bingzhou. Chang'an and Guanzhong, Chiyang, Wugong and other areas, as well as Chencang, Sanguan area. These two important places should be arranged to prevent the attack of Xiliang, Han Sui and Ma Teng. Such a concubine needs to be armed. When the infantry is to be used, the lord should collect the Baibo army and train it, otherwise it will not be possible to train a capable army to deploy everywhere in a short period of time. ”

After Jia Xu and Zhao Yun listened, they nodded at the same time and said, "What Xiaozhi said is reasonable. ”

Zhang Xiuyi nodded and smiled: "Since that's the case." Do what you say in your filial piety. In this battle, the thunder cavalry and Pangulis were responsible for dealing with the soldiers who had already gone ashore, and Zilong was in charge. Zilong took the rank of general among the ten thousand troops, and this time he should capture the thief and capture the king first, kill the leader who commanded the Baibo army to land, and then surrender it. In addition, the cloud cavalry and the remaining 10,000 cavalry are led by the general, and Wenhe and Xiaozhi will arrange for the Son of Heaven to leave. ”

The three of them heard it, and at the same time replied loudly: "No."

After dawn, Zhang Xiu's army escorted the Son of Heaven to drive slowly eastward.

There was nothing to say for a day, and the slow progress of the Son of Heaven's car made Zhang Xiu can't help but scold her mother, I'm afraid that Zhang Xiu's walking degree is faster than that of Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven. Zhang Xiu didn't understand how Liu Xie and his entourage escaped from the pursuit of Li Xu, Guo Ji and others in such a way, thinking that they were deliberately slowing down the trip and waiting for Cao Cao's reinforcements.

In the evening, the Son of Heaven and his entourage really arrived at Luoyang City, which had become ruins, Zhang Xiu according to Jia Xu and Fa Zheng's arrangement, deliberately let the Son of Heaven and his party go from the north, so the resting place is not far from the Mengjin Ferry, I want to come to Liu Xie and the ministers to hear the sound of the fight and know how to flee, Zhang Xiu for Liu Xie to create an opportunity to escape can be described as painstaking, if it is not for Jia Xu's analysis before. Zhang Xiu also wanted to try the days when Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes like Cao Cao in history. But thinking about Dong Zhuo's fate, just do it. His background in the Kansai Han clan is destined that he cannot take the road of coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and he must subtly change the system of the late Han Dynasty and replace it with a new and reasonable system, so that he can dominate the world and establish a long-lived dynasty, otherwise it will only be like the end of the Three Kingdoms, either making a wedding dress for others or being destroyed and becoming one. A short-lived dynasty.
