Chapter 25: Dong Zhuo
Guangzong, in the Spring and Autumn Period, originally belonged to the Qi State, and then was the Dongyang Land of Jin.
Qin and early Han Dynasty all belonged to Julu County.
After several changes, in the spring of this year, it was also before Zhang Jiao's uprising, and the court issued an order to remove Anpingguo. The country is excepted, and nowadays, it belongs to Anping County.
The area where Guangzong is located, and it is connected to Qinghe and Xindu, which is actually an important military town.
For months, Lu Zhi surrounded the city and did not choose to attack the city with heavy casualties. Originally in Guangzong City, the city is strong, and the city is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Its rate department, waiting for the opportunity.
Who knew that this matter was still stirred up by Huangmenlang Zuo Feng sent by the Son of Heaven.
Nowadays, the commander in exchange for it is Dong Zhuo.
As the saying goes, Dong Zhuo has a tyrannical temperament and a rough temperament, but he is also a scheming person.
Otherwise, how can it create a great reputation in the northwest?
However, Dong Zhuo was brave and strategic, but he himself rarely fought siege battles, more than the cavalry of the grassland. It was also under the arrival of Guangzong City, in this half a month, countless soldiers were killed in battle, and it was difficult to break this Guangzong City.
Seeing the time pass little by little, Dong Zhuo was anxious.
This time, the Son of Heaven ordered him to supervise the war, if he returned in vain, he was afraid that he would be like Lu Zhi, and he would be greatly blamed.
Outside Guangzong City, inside the big tent, Dong Zhuogao sat on the first case.
His people have the rugged appearance of a prairie man, but because of these years, his authority has become higher and higher, and he has gained a lot of prestige.
Listening to the staff finish explaining the battle situation, Dong Zhuo's tiger eyes glared, looked at the generals in the big tent, and said: "Now Guangzong City can't be attacked for a long time.
Lu Zigan was replaced at this time, with His Majesty's order, by me, if it is useless, wouldn't it be embarrassing to Your Majesty?
The longer it takes, even if someone in the palace helps to clarify it, His Majesty will be furious.
You are all my Dong Zhuo, a trustworthy person, and there can be two sides here. ”
Among these generals, there are many people of the same clan, speaking of which, like Cao Cao a few years later, Dong Zhuo is also a member of the same clan who reuses credit.
The leader is his younger brother Dong Min (mín), Dong Min and Dong Zhuo have three points of similarity in appearance, and in terms of human temperament, they are much more stable than Dong Zhuo himself.
During Dong Zhuo's gallop in Liangzhou, Dong Min gave a lot of advice, and he was also a person that Dong Zhuo absolutely trusted among his relatives.
A few years later, Dong Zhuo was able to enter the customs to control Luoyang, and this person also made great contributions.
In addition, among the generals of the relatives below, there is another nephew Dong Huang, younger brother Dong Yue, and son-in-law Niu Fu and others.
On the other side, there are generals such as Duan Xuan, Hu Zhen, and Yang Ding.
And looking at the account, there are very few real scribes.
In the matter of Guangzong's siege of the city, Dong Zhuo actually discussed with Dong Yue and others for a long time, but these northwestern men, on the plains, rode horses with the enemy, and there was no problem with real swords and guns.
But once it comes to siege, no matter Dong Zhuo, everyone else is also black-eyed.
Over the past few days, after several temptations, all of them have come to naught.
Seeing that his uncle frowned and didn't like it, Dong Zhuo's favorite nephew, Dong Yue's eyes moved, and he got up and said: "Back to uncle, according to the little nephew, it is difficult for Lu Shangshu to take it, so this is slowly trying to figure it out."
It's understandable that it's hard for us to take it directly.
If my uncle is worried that there will be no great military exploits in front of him, which will embarrass His Majesty in front of the courtiers, I might as well wait to change places and achieve relatively easy results, and the city of Guangzong in the meantime is still dominated by soldiers.
After that, there is not enough food and grass in the city, so we will wait for the ditches and preparations we have dug to make enough, and then attack it with all our might, it will not be too late! ”
Dong Yue said that he could hear the other generals in the account bow their heads one after another, and Dong Zhuo also heard it in his heart.
Subsequently, Hu Zhen and others will express their views one after another.
Dong Zhuo groaned: "In the next few days, let's try it again to see if we can find a place to break through, if it is difficult to make progress in five days, we will wait for a change of place outside the siege, such as Quyang."
If Quyang is attacked by us, then Zhang Jiao is worried that the city will be broken, and most of them will send troops out of the city to help, so it will also provide an opportunity for us to take Guangzong. ”
Quyang, and now it is Zhang Bao who is guarding.
Dong Zhuo's strategy is to make the generals in the account more recognized.
"The general is wise!" The general, Duan Xuan, slapped a dry fart.
But then, in the siege of the city, the loss of too many soldiers on our side was difficult to make up for a while, and it became an imminent problem.
Thinking of this group of brothers who followed him from Liangzhou, born and died, and buried their bones in another country, Dong Zhuo felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Suddenly, after Dong Min's reminder, he thought of recruiting troops from all over the world in the past two days.
What is the combat power of the recruiters, as a general of a hundred battles, can Dong Zhuoyan know?
But in the matter of attacking the city, he couldn't bear to finish the battle of his subordinates, and there was still the important land of Quyang, so he couldn't fall and die on a tree.
And these ordinary recruiters who were ordered by the imperial court to gather from all over the country died when they died.
Then, Dong Zhuo ordered: "From tomorrow, for the attack outside the city, let the recruits cooperate with our main forces to take Guangzong with all their might!" ”
"Whoa!"
It is less than two miles away from Dong Zhuo's Chinese army tent, which is where Liu Qi led the Du Township townsmen to station.
He and Taishan County came to the aid of this soldier, and when he came to the city of Guangzong, it was two days of hard work.
Within two days, he and Wang Shang and other county officials did not stop, but assisted the craftsmen to build siege ordnance by taking local materials.
Compared with the siege of the city, this kind of work in the rear is much safer, and anyway, Zhang Jiao in the city will not lead his troops to kill.
was able to take on such a task, thanks to Zhuge Jue's letter.
On the day he came to Guangzong, he learned that Ding Yuan was in charge of logistics, not only to deal with Guangzong, but Yu Guangzong was supervising the construction of equipment, so he quickly searched for it.
Liu Qi is not a pedantic person, he has seen it from a distance, and after the Han army attacked the city, he fell silent.
Where is this siege, it is clearly filled with human lives.
At this point, some relationships don't work, and if you find a way to survive, you won't be able to use it.
Although Ding Yuan did not meet him in person, he knew that he was from Taishan County, and he had the role of Zhuge Jue's letter, so he still asked his generals to help him arrange one or two.
So, Liu Qi led the Du Township Townsmen, and even the entire Gaixian Township Guards who came here were exempted from the fate of carrying the ladder and being cannon fodder.
"Pavilion Chief, I'm afraid it won't be long before this city can be captured!"
Xu Ji didn't know when he came to Liu Qi's side and looked at Liu Qi's line of sight.
Liu Qi didn't look back, shook his head and said, "It's so easy, the person who guards the city, but that 'Heavenly Gong General'."
And this city can't be attacked for a long time, I'm afraid that our main general will give up for the time being and find another place! ”
Liu Qi's tone was more determined.
If it goes on like this, Dong Zhuo will inevitably be unable to hold his breath, and through the military dispatch of the past two days, Liu Qi can see something.
It's time to fight Zhang Bao next, right?
