Chapter 292: The Servants

Dong Zhuojun retreated, and then he was frustrated.

Because Dong Zhuo did intend to lure the chasing soldiers in the city so that he could fight an ambush.

But Meng Fu is also wrong.

Because this ambush that Dong Zhuo hit was not a lure ambush, but a retreating ambush.

After Dong Zhuo heard about the situation encountered by the various ministries, he decided to withdraw directly.

Although he did not know that he was facing the ocean of the people's war, he was not unfamiliar with this kind of problem. When he was fighting in the west before, he also encountered this kind of thing.

When they were fighting in the Huangshui River Valley, they marched, camped, and stayed overnight, when was not the surrounding Qiang tribe eyeing each other? And the Han army of the Qiang army is not complicated to solve this problem.

One goes, one uses a woman, and the other is killed.

Dong Zhuo chose to go.

If he is unfavorable, he will go, he has a different heart, how can he be willing to use his own soldiers to fill this bottomless pit. Moreover, Lu Zhi's army, which was supposed to arrive, has not been traced yet, and it is clear that he Dong Zhuo is being consumed.

In the previous battle of Dong Zhuo's rebellion in Xindu, because he did not send a message to Lu Zhi Fenghuo under the city in time, Lu Zhi made a wrong decision and let the 3,000 soldiers of Yecheng go north to support.

It was because of the transfer of Yecheng's troops that the Taishan thieves from the north took advantage of the situation, not only lost the important place of Yecheng, but also lost the general of Wei County, Zhang Ze.

And what about Dong Zhuo? Not only did she have no remorse, but she also made a self-conscious military exploit, plundered Xindu, and was a female god.

As a result, the relationship between Lu Zhi and Dong Zhuo took a sharp turn for the worse, and this time Dong Zhuo Hedongbing was the vanguard of the former army to go south, which did not mean to consume this person.

Lu Zhi somewhat saw that Dong Zhuo was most likely a scourge.

The dynasty has always liked to use Xizhou people as generals, not only because they can fight well, but also because the court needs these people as the center and the connection between Xizhou.

That's right, these old commanders like Duan Cheng are indeed temperamental and overkill, but they are still loyal to the central government. But Lu Zhi saw that this Dong Zhuo was a madman, and Duan Ying, the fierceness of these old handsomes, not only learned ten out of ten, but he couldn't see his loyalty to the court at all.

With this worry, it was not for the imminent war that he had already killed this winger.

And Dong Zhuo probably also saw this sign, not only did he live in the barracks when he was in Handan, but even when he went south this time, he only practiced martial arts under the city, and did not do anything practical.

However, Dong Zhuo has withdrawn, but will he really be discouraged?

No, Dong Zhuo personally led the cavalry, tied a yellow scarf on his head, and began to loot nearby. Didn't your Taishan army pull its heart away to your capital of Qian? But isn't there so much left?

Dong Zhuojun pretended to be a Yellow Turban thief and began to loot the township along the road, not only ruining the reputation of the Taishan thieves, but also cutting off the heads of these Qianshou as rank merits to supplement military resources.

This is the brutality of the foreign soldiers in Xizhou, who only regard Hebei as an enemy country, and the remnants are like pigs and dogs.

Lu Zhi of Handan also left the city after Dong Zhuo's army set off, but the direction of the army was not Yecheng in the south, but to the east.

There, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans from the Lieren and the allied forces of the Taishan Army were attacking in the direction of Handan.

At the same time, Guangzong's Hebei Yellow Turban was also marching towards Julu.

Julu guarded Guo Dian three times a day, and sent it directly to Handan, asking for reinforcements.

After the Julu War, because of the food shortage in Aocang, the Han army in Hebei could only retreat to the area of Zhao to eat, and only 3,000 soldiers were left for Julu to guard Guo Dian. There are four generals under his command: Gao Lan, Zhao Fu, Cheng Lian, and Wei Liang.

And this time Guo Dian said that Guangzong's Hebei Yellow Turban poured out, and his 3,000 soldiers must not be able to stop it.

This is not a single line of disaster, when Lu Zhi and the Han army in the south joined forces to attack, the Taishan army was also out of the vertical and horizontal soldiers, and successively contacted the Yellow Turban of Qingzhou and the Yellow Turban of Guangzong.

Of course, this is not very smooth. The first one is that Zhang Liang's general, Zhang Ge, successfully entered the city of Lieren with the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

Then Zhang Ge cried blood and told Jinan Qushuai the truth about the fall of Zhang Liang, the general of the Julu War.

The rumor is right, the fatal arrow that killed Zhang Liang came from the rear, and it was someone from Hebei Province.

But who exactly shot it, Zhang

He didn't know that Zhang Liang was still angry at that time, so he asked Zhang Ge to return to the wilderness, don't go back to the rear, and don't tell others about it.

Under the coercion of Zhang Liang before his death, Zhang Ge cried and agreed at that time, and then he took more than a dozen brothers of his descendants to change out of their military uniforms and wandered near Zhangshui.

Originally, Zhang Ge had already extinguished his anger and hatred, and was wiped out by the hardships of Zhangshui begging. But it wasn't until he saw the group of people with yellow scarves on their heads again that day that he knew how strong his hatred was.

Sure enough, when he learned that his mentor was killed by the people in the sect, the sacrificial grandson was furious, and he wanted to lead the troops to kill back to Guangzong to seek justice for his mentor.

But sacrificing grandchildren is sacrificing grandchildren in the end, he loves his teacher, but he loves this great cause of the yellow sky even more. So he restrained his anger and stepped up to reorganize the department.

The first battle of the Lieren made him see the gap between the Qingzhou Yellow Turban and the real main force of the Han army, and also made the sacrifice Sun make a big determination to organize the army according to the model of the Taishan Army.

The sacrificial grandson understands that whether it is seeking justice for his mentor or building the great cause of the Yellow Sky, he is inseparable from the knife in his hand.

After that, he seconded a training team of 400 people from Zhang Dan's Eastern Expeditionary Army, specializing in teaching Qingzhou Yellow Turban Ming Banner, understanding golden drums, and even selecting special strong people to learn from the Taishan Army to train large formations.

But these moves attracted the opposition of the other commanders of the Qingzhou army, who vaguely expressed their fears that by doing so, the influence of the Taishan army in the Qingzhou Yellow Turban was too great, and it was not a good thing after all.

But the priest asked three questions directly:

"If you don't train the army, how can you survive?"

"If you don't train the army, why do you want to return to your hometown?"

"If you don't train the army, how can you glorify my great cause?"

These three questions made Zhang Rao and others speechless. Yes, they are now in Hebei, facing the blades of elite Han soldiers, they are already overstretched, they don't train their soldiers, they don't practice formations, do they really want to be a stranger in Hebei?

Xu He also planned to invite Zhang Chong to go to sea with him to go to Liaodong to plunder, but Zhang Chong missed it because he was attacked by a powerful group near Mount Tai.

Therefore, Xu He did not object to the training of soldiers.

But Zhang Rao is different, because of his relationship with Tang Zhou before, his relationship with Zhang Chong was relatively stiff, so Zhang Rao was also worried about this knot, so he objected.

But Zhang Rao is not a selfish person, before he took 10,000 children from his hometown to cross the river in the north, and he lost his troops and generals, and he already felt ashamed of his hometown fathers. If this is because of his personal grievances, he really can't accept it.

In this way, the three commanders agreed, and the large-scale training of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban officially began.

The Qingzhou Yellow Turban originally had a high quality of soldiers and a strong sense of resistance. The reason why he was repeatedly defeated by the Han army before was the lack of battle formation skills.

Now, there are 400 training teams of the Eastern Expeditionary Army to form a battle formation, and there is Ao Cangsu brought by the Eastern Expeditionary Army, and the elite soldiers have enough food, and the combat power of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban has advanced by leaps and bounds.

And because most of the people in the Eastern Expeditionary Army are from Taishan and Jinan, they are of the same root as the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, with similar accents and similar customs, so the integration is also very fast.

Therefore, when Zhang Chong's messenger from Yecheng arrived in Lieren City with a letter, he invited the generals of Qingzhou to attack the Han army in Hebei.

And the sacrificial grandson lived up to expectations, and only brought the letter soldier to Zhang Chong with a sentence:

"When the snow melts, I will hunt the red dragon with my brother, and live up to the yellow sky and the teacher."

If the alliance of Qingzhou Yellow Turban is surprisingly smooth, then the alliance with Hebei General Road is full of twists and turns.

Speaking of which, when Zhang Chong was in Xingyang that day, it was indeed Zhang Jiao who took the initiative to invite Zhang Chong to lead the army north to attack the Han army. And now that the Taishan army is really here, they also sent a messenger to Guangzong with a letter of attack, but they found that something was wrong.

On behalf of the Taishan army to Guangzong, it was Dong Zhao. He invited himself to contact the Yellow Turban of Hebei as an envoy to send troops together, and together with the Taishan army in Yecheng and the Qingzhou army of the people, he attacked Lu Zhibu from the south, east and north.

Originally, things were going very well, and Zhang Bao, the general of the Digong who was in charge of the general affairs, braved the snow to go out of the city to greet Dong Zhao and other messengers of the Taishan army.

With his respect, to do so can be described as condescending.

But soon Dong Zhao found out that something was wrong. Since they entered the city, they were arranged in the post house of Guangzong, although there was no shortage of wine and meat, and there was more firewood for heating, but they just couldn't see the great sages and good teachers.

asked the Yellow Turban military envoy who had made friends, but every time he said that he had reported it and waited for time. This is not over, Dong Zhao's deputy envoy Zhong Yan whispered that he and others have been monitored by the Hebei Yellow Turban.

Sure enough, Dong Zhao went upstairs and watched the street downstairs, and there were pedestrians coming and going from time to time. It's all snowing, who's going to go out?

So, Dong Zhao called to protect Shi Ah and ordered him to quietly arrest someone for interrogation.

After Shi Ah surrendered to Lu Xiang and Lu Kuang, he also showed a peak skill of grabbing white blades empty-handed, and soon became famous in the army.

After that, the general of the flying army, Meng Fu, reorganized the flying army, and when he heard that this Shi A had such courage and skills, he immediately felt that this person was a rare sentry talent, so he directly asked Lu Xiang and Lu Kuang for someone.

is still the same sentence, Meng Fu is not only a veteran in the army, but Qu Shuai nodded and agreed to select elite soldiers from various armies to reorganize the flying army, so the Lu brothers were unwilling, and they could only release them.

After Shi A joined the Flying Army, he really came out on top and became the bravest soldier in the whole army, and he became the general of the Flying Army, but he could be in charge alone.

This Shi Ah is also lucky, not because the flying army has a large establishment, and he has broken his muscles and bones and changed his blood, Shi Ah is the first class, and he can't be directly released as a team leader.

According to the system of the Taishan Army, when a grassroots military officer is transferred to a middle and senior position, he must first enter the military academy for further study, and then the professor, commander, classmates, and former subordinates can pass the examination and pass the quartet before they can be appointed to military posts above the team or tun level.

So this Shi Ah can be regarded as superb.

This time, escorting Dong Zhao and Zhong Yan to Guangzong was the responsibility of Shi A's flying army with fifty people.

Shi Ah got Dong Zhao's order, and came back with a sack in a moment.

After that, the captive spoke out the main messenger behind it in a coercion.

"Wei Shu?"

When Dong Zhao came up with the name from this captive, he muttered:

"I'm in trouble."

yes, *** annoying. Because this Wei Shui has a background, and it is not small.

Dong Zhao felt that Zhang Chong's strange goods were liveable, so he put his mind on the Taishan Army. As a staff member of the Chinese military, he has many information channels, which in itself is a necessary way for the staff to improve decision-making.

As the biggest ally of the Taishan Army, the Hebei Yellow Turbans are naturally the focus of attention of Dong Zhao, the shogunate staff.

The most important thing in Taiping Dao is naturally the three Zhang brothers of Julu. Naturally, there are the commanders of the various armies and the commanders of all parties. But in the middle of this, there are a group of Taoist officials of Hebei General Road, who maintain the connection and operation of Taiping Road across the country.

And this Wei Shui is now the Taoist envoy of Hebei Province only under the Zhang brothers, who is fully responsible for the daily operation of Hebei Province, and can be said to be the third person.

Wei Shui can have this power, on the one hand, because he is the brother-in-law of the three Zhang brothers, and they are one.

Zhang Jiao is not from a poor background, he comes from a wealthy family in Julu. The Julu Wei clan is the wife of the Zhang clan. The mother of Zhang Jiao and others is from the Wei family.

On the other hand, the weight of Wei Harvest is also inseparable from his family.

The Julu Wei clan can be traced back to the Wei State, one of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, after Wei Wuji, the king of Xinling. His grandson Wei Wuzhi was Liu Bang's adviser and the ancestor of the Julu Wei clan, and he was a Han official for several generations.

It is also for this reason that the Zhang brothers rely on the Wei family. In fact, from this level, it also reflects how deeply entangled with Julu Haoqiang is in the upper echelons of Hebei Taiping Road.

And now, the number three person in Hebei Taiping Road is spying on them, what does this mean?

Dong Zhao, who felt the seriousness, silently digested the news, and he asked Shi A to dispose of the captive.

This person can only disappear, because it is impossible for Dong Zhao to fall out with Hebei Taiping Road. And this person disappeared, even if Wei Shui knew that there was no one, but no other news broke out, he knew what Dong Zhao meant.

The confession obtained from the captive was not shared with the deputy envoy Zhong Yan.

It's not that Dong Zhao eats alone. It's that he's skeptical

A member of the Chung clan of the Changshe.

Zhong Yan was captured by the Taishan army when they went north to Changshe from Yingyang, and their family was basically taken away by the Taishan army. This Zhong is also very obedient, and has not shown any dissatisfaction, which is quite a bit like joining if he can't beat it.

Zhong Xuan's younger brother, Zhong Yan, joined Zhang Chong's shogunate and made praise paintings.

So why is Dong Zhao suspicious?

It's intuition, a kind of intuition. He always felt that this bell performance was in the Taishan camp, but his heart was in the Han room.

There are also the letters that Ding Sheng seized from Huang Wan's big tent before, and some of the information in them was only known to them, so Dong Zhao always knew that there were internal ghosts among them.

And this inner ghost, Dong Zhao suspects that it is Zhong Yan.

As for whether it will be suspected of being wrong? So what?

This is Dong Zhao's first aspect, he regards it as an opportunity to leap into the fish, anything that affects the success of the mission, even if there is only a slight possibility, he Dong Zhao will strangle it.

It's just that Zhong Yan is excluded from the decision-making group, which is already his most gentle means for Dong Zhao.

You don't see, he can even sacrifice his own brother.

This Dong Zhao is a person who does great things, it is no wonder that in another plane, he jumped between multiple forces, directly did a big one, and successfully established Cao Cao to the emperor, winning several generations of wealth, even if he was thought to be a servant by the people of the time.

And now, how can this servant who can do big things do this big thing for Zhang Chong?
