Chapter 316: Turning to the West River
Zheng Tai was overjoyed, saluted very respectfully, smiled all over his face, and said, "Xie Minggong, Xie Minggong!" ”
Zheng Tai said again: "Ming Gong, in fact, his subordinates still have a plan, and they have not offered it. ”
When He Jin heard this, he was even more pleased, and said, "Oh? The public industry can be said quickly! ”
Zheng Tai said with a smile: "A few days ago, the captured general Dong Zhuo was on the table, and he had to flee to the territory of Bingzhou Shangjun to avoid the conflict with the Xiliang army. He said that the Huns were in trouble with Shangjun, and hoped that the imperial court would allow him to be stationed in Shangjun to defend against the Huns. ”
Yuan Shu on the side clasped his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and smiled disdainfully: "This Dong Zhuo must have been beaten by Jin Ma Chao and lost his soldiers, and he was unable to fight with Jin Ma Chao again, so he fled to the county." What to defend against the Huns? It's just an excuse to avoid the Xiliang Army and not want to fight with the Xiliang Army again. ”
Zheng Tai said: "Not bad. Although Dong Zhuo is timid, it is not useless. He happened to be close to the White Bo Army. When Ma Chao leads the army to conquer the Baibo army, he can be ordered to attack Ma Chao behind his back. Ma Chao has Bai Bojun in front of him, and Dong Zhuo in the back, can An win it? Ming Gong can be worry-free! ”
He Jin nodded and said, "It's still a high strategy for the public industry, okay, I'll send a letter to Dong Zhongying!" ”
Cao Cao was a little envious and jealous. After all, after He Jin had always looked down on him as a eunuch, Cao Cao also knew that if he hadn't killed Jian Shuo's uncle with a five-color stick, and he was on the same page as the Ten Standing Servants, Cao Song was afraid that Cao Cao would be retaliated against by the Ten Standing Servants, so he first transferred Cao Cao out of the capital and let Cao Cao attach himself to He Jin; If He Jin hadn't wanted to win over Cao Song, he wouldn't have accepted Cao Cao into his shogunate. Therefore, He Jin has always been lukewarm to him, and has never been treated like Yuan Shao and Zheng Tai.
Cao Cao thought to himself, Zheng Tai's plan had worked, so if Ma Chao wanted to lead the army into Beijing, he had to deal with the Baibo army again. Bai Bojun said that it was strong or not, and that it was weak or not. Whether Ma Chao can win quickly and with minor casualties is still unknown. But Cao Cao also knew that it was estimated that if Ma Chao wanted to lead the army into Beijing as planned, he would definitely have a lot of constraints.
This made Cao Cao inevitably feel a little sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox, thinking that if Ma Chao could win and lead the army into Beijing, it would be fine, but unfortunately this possibility is very low. Thinking like this, Cao Cao is looking forward to Ma Chao's arrival. He thought that if Ma Chao led Xiliang Tie to ride into Luoyang City, how many accidents and changes would it bring to Luoyang City. Cao Cao couldn't help but want to know now.

The center of the storm, which is more tranquil than beyond the storm; Being in the center of a storm means not feeling the storm.
The day after another incident occurred in Luoyang City, Ma Chao led his army to the outside of Huayin City.
Just when Ma Chao was still planning to get to Luoyang City and gradually achieve his goal, the arrival of a gray carrier pigeon made all his lofty ambitions have to be temporarily stopped.
The edict has not yet arrived, and it is Jian Shuo's letter that has arrived. Jian Shuo told Ma Chao everything that happened, which surprised Ma Chao.
Because Ma Chao remembered that the uprising of the White Polish Army was in February and March of 188 AD, and now it is only late December of 187, two months earlier. It seems that it is the butterfly effect, and the increase in Ma Chao's variable made the Bai Bo army launch an uprising in advance.
Ma Chao convened Jia Xu, Yang Biao, Pang De, Zhang Xiu, and Lu Yi to discuss what to do next.
Jia Xu said: "The young master must be worried, if he is shackled in the war with the Baibo army, he will inevitably not be able to go to the capital, he will not be able to help His Majesty, and he will not be able to realize his ambitions." ”
Ma Chao nodded.
Yang Biao said: "Zheng Tai's plan is a conspiracy, and it is really vicious. But no matter what, the imperial court has issued an edict, and if the general does not obey the edict, I am afraid it will be disadvantageous. ”
Ma Chao looked at Jia Xu hesitantly, and Jia Xu said: "Young master, if the imperial court can issue an edict this time, it must be Your Majesty's consent." Because the general has no right to record Shang Shu's affairs, if Shang Shutai wants to issue an edict, it must be out of His Majesty's will. His Majesty naturally knew Zheng Tai's intentions, and the reason why he agreed to send the young master to conquer the Baibo army was because he believed that with the talent of the young master, he could easily defeat the Baibo army. ”
Pang De said: "The White Polish Army, like the Yellow Turban Army, is just a group of anti-people. Although there are 100,000 people, they are far inferior to our army in terms of armor, horses, grain, weapons, soldiers, and training. Young master, the last general, our army should have a good chance of winning. ”
Zhang Xiu also said: "Yes! Brother, don't hesitate, our army went to conquer the Baibo army, but to earn more military merits, our army will definitely win! ”
Lu Yi also said: "The last general is also confident in our army!" ”
Ma Chao was actually inclined to follow the edict to conquer the Bai Bo Army, thinking that the chances of victory were relatively large. But Ma Chao knew that the Baibo Army uprising in history not only involved the Baibo Army, but also the Xiongnu and Dong Zhuo.
On the surface, it was just to conquer the White Polish army, but with the development of history, the White Polish army would form an alliance with the Huns and attack together. There is also a Dong Zhuo, who has been wandering around Shangjun and Xihe County since he was defeated by him. Although Dong Zhuo did not dare to directly attack the Xiliang Army, he still dared to restrain the Xiliang Army. In this way, this war is far more complicated than the conquest of Han Sui and the attack on Emperor Fu Song.
But the matter has come to this point, and Ma Chao also knows that he has to go if he doesn't go.
Ma Chao said to everyone: "Since this is the case, then I will send an edict to the Baibo Army." The order was given that the army would no longer march eastward, but march rapidly northward, entering Shangjun and reaching Xihe County! ”
"Yes!"
So the Xiliang army quickly adjusted the direction of the march and advanced to the north. The Baibo army rose up in the Baibo Valley, and the Baibo Valley was outside Linfen City. Linfen City sometimes belongs to Xihe County, and sometimes belongs to Hedong County. At this time, Linfen City belonged to Xihe County. Therefore, the Bai Bo Army was not too far away from the Xiliang Army that was in Huayin City.
In this line of the Xiliang Army, each person is equipped with four war horses, one is used to carry armor, weapons and grain, and three are used for transfer. Therefore, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was able to maintain continuous marching, traveling 400 miles a day. Soon, Ma Chao led the Xiliang army to leave the Sanfu realm and enter the territory of Shangjun in Bingzhou. Ma Chao knew that since Dong Zhuo was defeated last time, he had run to wander in Shangjun. As soon as he entered Shangjun, Ma Chao began to worry that Dong Zhuo would come to fight him again, making the war even more complicated.
……………………………………………
And Dong Zhuo, who was being remembered by Ma Chao, was in the grassland not far from Shangjun City at this time, in a white felt house. He was lying on his back on the bed at this time, naked, snoring like thunder. Next to the Hu bed, there were three Hun girls, they were naked, trembling and hugging each other, looking at Dong Zhuo with frightened eyes, sobbing in a low voice, and there were many red and cyan bruises on their bodies.
