The vanguard of Yuan Shao's army was Chun Yuqiong, the general he relied on the most.

But at this moment, as the vanguard of the vanguard, it was a team of fifty foot soldiers, led by a general named Zhang Ba, who walked out of the Wangwu Mountain passage.

The sergeants walked through the valley, and in front of them was the valley east of the river, and suddenly it was clear.

But at this time, Zhang Ba, who was the leader of the platoon, saw dozens of cavalry troops in the distance and was about to be guarded. I saw a big banner with the word "Dong" on the opposite side.

Zhang Ba's heart was relieved, knowing that this was sent by Hedong to greet him. So he waved the flag and ordered the team to move on.

Zhang Ba did not let his subordinates draw their swords and halberds, and even the armor was not worn on the car. He was worried that if his side overreacted, he might make the other side misjudge.

As the vanguard selected by Chun Yuqiong, Zhang Ba naturally knew that the task of his trip was to gain the trust of Hedong, so it was necessary to avoid the slightest misjudgment on the other side.

Zhang Ba himself took the lead in the front of the team, raised his hands high, signaled that there was no blade in his hand, and then walked to the front and shouted:

"We are the Han army sent by Luoyang to receive Hedong."

Just as Zhang Ba approached, Zhang Ba also saw the situation on the other side.

I saw dozens of elite horsemen standing on a slope not far away, with a solemn old military spirit. Take a closer look at the dress of these elite riders, there are both braids, draped hair, and bearded crowns, and there are also a few Han people dressed up and pulled out a bun.

These people are all Hu people.

Zhang Ba is a native of Yuzhou, and it is the first time he has seen so many Hu people. He steadied himself, and then he stepped forward and said to one of the bearded men with a large beard:

"Are you Dong Hedong's subordinates?"

The reason why he spoke to this person was because these people were dressed in all kinds of clothes, and they couldn't see their rank, so he found a man with a big beard, because no matter how bearded a man, he was beautiful with a big beard. I don't have an identity, and I can't grow such a beard.

Sure enough, after hearing Zhang Ba's words, the bearded beard on the other side first laughed, and then said nonsense to the Hu rider next to him, causing everyone to laugh.

Zhang Ba was a little annoyed, Hu people are Hu people, there is no etiquette at all.

Pursing his lips and controlling his anger, Zhang Ba spoke again.

But before he could say anything, he heard the bearded man on the other side suddenly speak a pure Chinese:

"Remember, it was Zhang Ye Guo Aduo who killed you."

After speaking, before Zhang Ba could react, the world spun around, and then the whole world went dark.

In March of the first year of the republic, Yuan Shaojun was ambushed by Dong Zhuo, the puppet Taishou of Hedong, in the Hedong River valley, and fought a bloody battle.

Yuan Shaozhong's army had just passed the Jiguan, and suddenly saw Chun Yuqiong, who was originally a former army, rushing over.

He hurriedly said to Yuan Shao:

"Originally, that Dong Fat Dog betrayed the alliance and ambushed us in front, and there were at least more than 10,000 banners in front of him. Our army is only 8,000, and we have lost the lead, so we should withdraw first. Let's chase the danger in the mountains, go south in the middle of the road, and return to Pingyin to defend again."

Yuan Shao was furious when he heard this, pulled out the ring head knife, pointed at Chun Yuqiong, and scolded:

"I have 8,000 soldiers, and the enemy is only more than 10,000, how can I not fight, so why should I be cowardly before fighting? Since this Dong Zhuo wants to die, we will destroy them in this valley today."

After speaking, he said to Chun Yuqiong:

"Today there are no brothers, only up and down. Since you are the vanguard of the front, I will not retreat, you will not retreat. If you dare to take a step back, I will kill you."

Chun Yuqiong was stunned for a moment, hurriedly clasped his fists and sang, and then returned to the front army again to continue to resist the attack of the Hedong Army.

As soon as he left, Yuan Shao jumped off the horse angrily and stomped his feet.

Xu You, who was on the side, saw that Yuan Shao's temperament came up, and hurriedly suggested:

"Originally, now is not the time to use gas. There are many horsemen in Hedong, and it is necessary to prevent them from infiltrating here through the front army. So we can camp here and stop the other side's horses."

Yuan Shao hurriedly followed this, and then the Chinese army and the rear army that came with it relied on vans to build a huge circular front in this river valley.

In the dusty dust and the incessant shouting and killing in front of him, Yuan Shao was all over

Pretending to jump onto a van and shouting:

"Today, I, Yuan Benchu, live and die with all the soldiers. Wait and see, kill! Kill those who are discouraged! Kill the unwarranted attacker! Whoever messes with my great array, kill!"

Yuan Benchu's central army was his 800 ethnic soldiers and 2,000 southern troops absorbed, and the rear army was 3,000 heroes from all over the country. These people are all courageous, and at this time, they were inspired by Yuan Benchu and inspired the heart to fight, so the singing one after another was endless.

Before the sound of encouraging the courage to fight was over, there were Hu cavalry from Hedong who arrived, and there were still a few Han army routs.

Yuan Shao looked at the pergola, and he knew it in his heart.

Chun Yuqiong in the front still held on, otherwise he wouldn't have been so defeated.

In fact, it is also normal, no matter how powerful the Hedong Army is, Chun Yuqiong is also the main force of the Northern Army back then. may not be as good as the numbers, but as long as they are dedicated to holding on, the Hedong Army will not be able to break them for a while.

These horsemen had indeed infiltrated from the front line.

As soon as they came to kill, they saw a round cart array lying here, and knew that they had lost the opportunity, so they returned with their horses.

As soon as he left, Yuan Shao's Xin comment on the side said:

"My lord, these Hu Qi must have gone to copy Chun Yu's lieutenant. If we don't send reinforcements, he won't be able to stop him."

Yuan Shao was silent, and Xu Yu on the side refuted Xin's words:

"Do you know that this is not a plan for the thief army to move the tiger out of the mountain? Once we drove the camp, we sent any army to rescue Chun Yuqiong, and we were all going to die in this valley. And it's more likely to be killed by thieves."

Yuan Shao was still silent, but he had actually expressed his attitude.

Time passed like this, minute by minute, and the shouting and killing in front of him became weaker and weaker.

At this time, a cavalry army of thirty or fifty people suddenly came out of the chaos and rushed directly to Yuan Shao's car camp.

One of the gruff officers shouted at the top of his lungs across the camp:

"The captain of my family asked Yuan Shuai to send reinforcements."

Yuan Shao shouted:

"No."

The rough military officer was stunned, he never expected Yuan Shao to answer so decisively in front of the army. Then he shouted again:

"Please give the order of Yuan Shuai to withdraw our troops from the front line. Our army has been fighting for an hour, and the oil has run out."

After saying this, the rough soldier cried before the army.

But Yuan Shao was still hard-hearted and yelled in person:

"No."

Now the rough soldier could not hold back, and he fell to the ground from his horse, and pleaded:

"Yuan Shuai, you didn't send reinforcements, and you didn't let our army retreat, this is to kill us."

The resentment in these words can be heard by anyone.

But who knew that Yuan Shao was indifferent and shouted:

"You go back and tell Lao Chunyu, and say that today is where you and my brother are buried. If we don't repel the Hedong rebels today, we will all die. This river valley, once pursued by cavalry, is a dead end. You Chun Yuqiong don't have to worry about being alone on the road, my old Yuan will go to accompany him immediately."

After speaking, Yuan Shao raised his head sword and said to the three armies, including the rough military official:

"You tell Lao Chunyu that the eldest husband was born in heaven and earth and should die in state affairs. It is better to crisscross the corpse field than to die of old age at the head of a drunken woman. The time has come to be loyal to the country, let Chun Yuqiong do it himself."

With these words, the rough soldier was moved, and the man fell to the ground and shouted:

"Obey Yuan Shuai's order, and the last general Ju Yi is willing to die for Yuan Shuai."

After speaking, this Ju Yi returned to the front with dozens of horsemen.

How did this Juyi end up here?

In fact, he should have been here. The Kaneshiro Ju clan, where Juyi is located, is a local clan, and he was selected as an elite in the Western Prefecture to serve in the forbidden middle school.

Later, as a member of the Northern Army, he was recruited by Huangfu Song and followed him south to Yuzhou to quell the Yellow Turban Army.

Originally, in the original history, he should have stayed in Hebei with Huang Fu Song after defeating the three Zhang brothers in the north

The town is local.

Then there is the well-known story, he will meet Han Fu, Yuan Shao, and Gongsun Zhan, and finally achieve his most glorious moment in Jieqiao. Of course, it was also his final curtain call.

It's just that at this moment, he Ju Yi is still an unknown person, just an ordinary cavalry general under Chun Yuqiong.

In a moment, Ju Yi and the others were gone. The front of the car formation returned to calm again, but Yuan Shao's heart was not as calm as on his face, and he only pursed his lips and listened to the sound of fighting in front of him.

Another hour passed, and the voices ahead were quieter, barely heard.

At this moment, Yuan Shao, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly stood up from the horse and shouted:

"All armoured."

Then a military officer passed on a military officer:

"All armoured."

Then the whole army began to move, and the sergeants, with the assistance of their servants, took off their armor from the wagon and put them on.

In this vacancy, Xin Ping suddenly asked Yuan Shao:

"My lord, where is this going?"

Yuan Shao replied:

"Support Chun Yu-kyo."

Xin Ping was taken aback, and just wanted to say that he hadn't mentioned it before? It doesn't look like you're going to help.

Yuan Shao said to himself:

"Just like I said before. Under the pursuit of cavalry, retreat must be a dead end. But waiting in this car camp is also a dead end. The enemy cavalry only had to dismount and carry the grass to burn our chariot battalion. When the time comes, the sergeants will lose their chariot formation, how can they still have the will to fight? Therefore, the only chance to survive is now, and that is to take the initiative to attack, take advantage of the exhaustion of the enemy army, and kill it."

This will Xu You no longer put forward objections, but bow to Yuan Shao:

"My lord, give the order."

In this way, in the bow of all the military officials, Yuan Shao ordered the whole army to move forward and fight to the death with the Hedong army.

Under the great sun, Yuan Shao was heroic and brave, and he bravely fought forward with 6,000 daredevils to fight for a way out.

But it is also strange to say that when Yuan Shaofen's army attacked, the Hedong rebels on the opposite side took the initiative to retreat, leaving only hundreds of Chun Yu's remnants.

This Chun Yu Qiong is a good general, even if he was wounded several times, he was still calm, and he also commanded the remnants of the army to launch a counter-charge against the enemy cavalry.

is really an iron-blooded warrior Chun Yuqiong.

For the retreat of the Hedong Army, Yuan Shao was prepared in his heart. In fact, in the two hours of the car formation, he had already thought about all kinds of situations.

He knew that Dong Zhuo was a wolf, and he was watching himself get greedy. But he couldn't eat himself, so he could only wait for himself to make a mistake. If he runs by himself, or waits for Chun Yuqiong to be annihilated, then Yuan Shao will die.

And the only way to survive is when the Hedong soldiers and Chun Yuqiong are inseparable, he Yuan Shao takes the initiative to attack, and he must have the determination to break the cauldron and sink the boat.

He expected that Dong Zhuo would not dare to fight, because the soldiers in Dong Zhuo's hands would not dare to be consumed than his Yuan Shao.

In Yuan Shao's hands, except for his own 800 clan soldiers, which of the others can't be abandoned? is the two thousand elites in the hands of Ruchun Yuqiong, haven't they been made by Yuan Shao?

The reason why this is so is that these forces are not the foundation of his Yuan Shao. His foundation is his fame, the prestige of the fourth and third dukes. With these, wherever he Yuan Shao goes, he can pull out another army.

But can he Dong Zhuo do this?

Without the army in his hands, he Dong Zhuo would be dead. Want to make a comeback? Don't look at him now, he seems to be between Kanto and Kansai, but in other words, no one regards Dong Zhuo as his own. If the soldiers in Dong Zhuo's hands are here and Yuan Shao is exhausted? Can he, Dong Zhuo, still be able to hold Hedong?

Therefore, Yuan Shaocai decided to put his death and live later, and set aside to fight Dong Zhuo to the death.

And everything was as Yuan Shao expected, he won the bet.

In the end, although Yuan Shao's mission to the west of Hedong failed, and his former army was less than 1,000 elites, his main force was still intact, and through this battle, his reputation for Yuan Shao was also played.

It can be said that for Yuan Shao, this time it is not a loss.

Watching Yuan Shaojun retreat, on a nearby slope, Dong Zhuo's fierce generals all surrounded Dong Zhuo and looked at the current ones.

One of the bearded warriors, that is, Guo Yan, couldn't help it:

"Ming Gong, let's just let these people go? I'll just take people to rush in a wave. and drive them all into the great river. Haha."

After speaking, Guo Yan couldn't help laughing with Fan Chou, Hua Xiong and others on the side.

"Shut up."

Suddenly, Dong Zhuo was drinking heavily, and he was so frightened that these fierce generals on the side were silent.

Dong Zhuo turned around and scolded Guo Yan angrily:

"It's all said, don't know how to fight, kill, and kill, and you have to rely on your brain to fight, understand it or not! Why should I wipe out these Han troops? Won't it be cheaper to get to Kansai then?"

Guo Yan was so scolded that he didn't dare to reply, so he had to stare at his feet.

Dong Zhuo finished scolding Guo Yan, and his mood was much more relaxed.

To be honest, he really didn't want to show his position so quickly. But the change in the situation made Dong Zhuo have to do so.

Since he sent Li Ru to Chang'an to come back, he told Dong Zhuo about the situation along the way, and bluntly said that if our Hedong Army did not participate in the subsequent war, the Kwanti Army would not be able to withstand the attack of the Kwantung Army.

In other words, now the balance of power between Kanto and Kansai has been unbalanced. He, Dong Zhuo, didn't choose a side anymore, and in the end, both sides were enemies.

So who to choose? If it is an average person, they will hesitate between things and things. After all, it is naturally safer to follow the winner, but to invest in the West Station, it is a charcoal in the snow, and the East Station is just the icing on the cake. Therefore, in terms of importance, it is better to choose the West naturally.

But is Dong Zhuo an ordinary person? He was deeply aware that the fate of himself and the army under his command had long been linked to Kansai. Not to mention that most of them are Kansai people, and they have no bright days in Kanto at all. Just one point, how old is Liu Hong in the west? And how old is the little emperor in the east?

He, Dong Zhuo, has already planned, once he joins the Kansai side, the confrontation between the East and West will be balanced, and their martial arts will still be on the rise. And once Liu Hong dies, who else can Kansai be the leader?

This time, he Dong Zhuo thought very clearly.

This time, I, Dong Zhuo, want to live for myself.
