Chapter 39: Jizhou is in Chaos (1)
"Let's go, let's go, after the mountain in front, we will arrive at Yingchuan, and when the time comes, we will do whatever the brothers want!" Bu has gone through a lot of hardships, and finally arrived at Yingchuan with hundreds of remnants of the defeated army, seeing that the fish are about to enter the sea, the birds into the mountains and forests, and it will be a new world in the future. Thinking of this is already a burst of excitement, I have finally arrived at this rich place, thinking that I will be able to gather in the mountains and forests in the future, hugging left and right, it is really a dream to wake up with a smile!
"General, let's go quickly, hurry up and choose a place to settle down, so as not to be discovered." A cronie around him hurriedly said, he was worried all the way, others don't know, he clearly understands very well, this time to escape, it is really not easy to get here alive, in addition to being frightened and frightened, enduring cold and starvation, it is a hurry, and now I finally see a glimmer of light, but I can't make a mistake at this most critical juncture!
"Yes, yes, yes, what you said is reasonable, everyone go quickly!" Bu has been alert, and hurriedly led people to the depths of the dense forest, it was really quiet along the way, if the Yellow Turban Army had such precision in combat, it would not have been defeated so early! As night fell, no one knew that there was such a group of people in Yingchuan!
"Big brother, now we are trapped in this Guangzong City, but the second brother is besieged by Lu Zhi in Xiaquyang, he is short of food and clothing, and the people I sent out have been killed several times! What can I do? Zhang Liang said helplessly to Zhang Jiao who was lying on the bed, he couldn't help but be anxious, usually Zhang Bao took the idea of everything, this time Zhang Bao was not there, Zhang Jiao fell ill at this critical moment, it really made people angry. Zhang Liang has been aggrieved for several days, he can't fight, he can't run and can't run, it's really embarrassing, if he fights with Chengfeng, he can't do it absolutely, his second brother is entangled again, and he can be regarded as holding each other back with Lu Zhi, the most infuriating thing is that I don't know where Yuan Shao came from, he has gathered enough more than 30,000 people and horses in just a few days, and he is scurrying around in Jizhou every day, which is really fucking angry.
"Third brother, the matter has come to this, it's useless to talk more, the second brother has been trapped, I'm afraid there will be more than one luck!" Zhang Jiao smiled bitterly, and at the same time sighed in his heart, if his three brothers worked together, I am afraid that this Jizhou would have been in the bag a long time ago, but it is a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world! Every time I think of this, Zhang Jiao is heartache, it's a pity that this is a good situation!
"Then big brother, we can't watch the second brother die, we have to hurry up and think of ways to support the second brother, even if we can't get by, we can relieve the pressure elsewhere!" Zhang Liang still didn't give up, he made up his mind in his heart, he would send someone out to fight Yuan Shao to the death in a while, even if he was defeated, he would have to drag Yuan Shao to death!
"Report to the general!" Suddenly, the herald came to report, "The whereabouts of General Bu of Dongjun are unknown, the rebel army of Dongjun has been disabled by Cao Cao, and the Han army has occupied Chenliu and Puyang, cutting off the passage between us and Yingchuan Runan!" After listening to the report, before Zhang Liang could speak, he saw Zhang Jiao's mouthful of blood spurting out, the blood sprayed high, just like the fountain, bright and bright, with a hint of black in the red, if it weren't for a trace of fishy smell, it would be quite beautiful.
"Big brother! Quick, call Lang Zhong! Zhang Liang greeted, and helped Zhang Jiao up, and quickly gave him a smooth breath, don't hold back this big brother again, now I can't deal with this situation by myself, there must be a backbone! Zhang Jiao took a few breaths, finally relieved himself, and let out a long sigh, "Third brother, it seems that my limit is approaching!" Zhang Jiao said
"What does the eldest brother say, isn't it just that the war was lost, I am still waiting for the eldest brother to take me into Luoyang City, you are the emperor, I am the general!" Zhang Liangqiang endured his grief and persuaded, Zhang Jiao's health was not very good, and he had worked for a long time, his body had been hollowed out, and after Zhang Bao's secret medicine, it was surprising that he could hold on to it until now and not fall, if it weren't for Zhang Bao's conscience in the end, and no longer secretly attack him, I'm afraid Zhang Jiao may not be able to survive to the uprising, and now Zhang Jiao can't hold on anymore after this blow! Hearing Zhang Liang's words, Zhang Jiao squeezed out a smile and said, "Third brother, don't worry, I know my body, you don't have to be too sad, if I die, don't be sad, I don't ask you what to do, as long as you can live,"
"Big brother, if that day really comes, I will take all my cronies and elites to fight the Han army." Zhang Liang said firmly, although he doesn't have much culture, but the eldest brother has pulled himself up, and in his heart, his life is the eldest brother's.
"Alas! Let's not talk about this first, now that Dongjun has been lost, I think Qingxu's rebel army won't last long, only Runan and Yingchuan are left, and now they have become turtles in the urn, if they want to develop, they can only attack desperately! Third brother, you send an order to Bocai Zhang Mancheng and others, let them attack independently, and fight wherever they want. As for this Jizhou, you can also let go of your hands and feet, Changshan I have arranged for good people to keep an eye on it, if there is no harvest in the end this time, you will be honest and be a rich man in the future! Zhang Jiao paused several times before finishing these words, and waved his hand to send Zhang Liang out. After everyone left, a dark shadow came from the darkness.
"You've got it all!" Zhang Jiao asked,
"Yes, my lord!"
"Well, give me an eye on Changshan, even if I exchange my life for it, I will be dragged down by Chengfeng, and in the end, if I really fail, protect the life of my third brother!" Zhang Jiao commanded
"What about the general of the earth?"
"Alas! Now he is not comfortable outside, if there is a chance, let him live, but I estimate that he has a lot of subordinates, and he will not be defeated so easily! ”
"Your body, my lord?"
"Hehe, life and death are fate, no need to say more! Alright, let's go down! As Zhang Jiao's words fell, the room returned to a sense of tranquility!
It wasn't until they received a letter from Zhang Liang that Bo Cai and Zhang Mancheng knew that their big rear Dongjun had been occupied, and they couldn't help but secretly scold Bu for being a waste, and at this time, the imperial court also announced that Dongjun had been taken back by the imperial court. Now it is controlled by Cao Cao, Liu Dai, Ying Shao, Xiahoudun, and Cao Ren divided and ruled! As soon as this news came out, the Han people were excited, the major families rushed to tell each other, and officials from all over the country also congratulated each other, and there was joy everywhere. If you want to say that the most unhappy is Liu Bei, he led his troops to Nanyang, although he rescued Lu Zhi, but he didn't catch anything, the reputation of the territory has nothing to do with him, he still has Guan Zhang and two people, three thousand soldiers and horses, and now follow Lu Zhi to attack Zhang Bao, originally besieged him in the city, he was planning to borrow Zhang Bao's head to become famous, but before he could do it, Zhang Bao shot first, and kept rushing to kill like crazy, especially after learning that the imperial court subdued Dongjun, Zhang Bao's offensive was more fierce, I couldn't bear it, if it wasn't for the sudden arrival of Yuan Shao to help me contain some of my troops, maybe I would have lost this bit of my belongings. Thinking about the little money he had saved by trying his best, and then looking at the team that Yuan Shao had built in just a few days, Liu Bei had an urge to cry.
"General Liu, someone outside has come to pay a visit!" Just when Liu Bei was thinking wildly, he ordered the soldiers
"Who?" Liu Bei said with a smile, is there anyone who comes to join him
"Yuan Shao"
"What? Come with me to greet you" When he learned that it was Yuan Shao who came, Liu Bei hurriedly came out accordingly. After all, this Jizhou is people's territory, as for Chengfeng, the Jizhou pastor, everyone automatically ignores it, the Yuan family is the head snake here!
"General Liu, Shao came uninvited, please forgive me!" Yuan Shao took Yan Liangwen and ugly, and when he saw Liu Bei, he smiled and said, he was fully prepared, knowing that this Liu Bei was bent on climbing up, if he could borrow Liu Bei's hand and get rid of Zhang Bao, wouldn't it be better. After all, Liu Bei is weak, and it will be much easier to deal with him in the future, as for Lu Zhi, Yuan Shao directly ignored it, he is so old, and he pretends to be high and does not form a gang, and he will be able to survive him in a few years.
"Where is it, General Yuan has worked hard and has a lot of opportunities, he should have been preparing to visit the general, and it was terrible to disturb the general's military, so it was delayed, and the general came today, and he couldn't be prepared for panic" Liu Bei also hurriedly smiled, and made up his mind in his heart to borrow the power of the Yuan family to expand his own power, his teacher couldn't be counted on, he was too upright and high, he only knew that he would encircle and suppress Zhang Bao, but he never gave himself credit.
After a few people sat down, they chatted for a while, Yuan Shao found that Liu Bei's pit was not so easy to deal with, he didn't leak a drop of water, and he stepped up his troops, this baby began to vomit bitterness, what military equipment is insufficient, food and grass are not enough, there are not many soldiers, anyway, how miserable is how to come, Yuan Shao who listened to it frowned, Guan Zhang is a sincere person, Guan Erye's face was even redder, Zhang Sanye's face was darker, and the two of them muttered together in their hearts, two bad old men, are not good birds. In the end, there was no way, Yuan Shao proposed to form an alliance, and the two families worked together to kill Zhang Bao first, as for Zhang Jiao and them, they would let them go first, and wait for the time to come. The two chatted for a long time without smiling, and there was no actual progress, although Liu Bei is not good at reading, but if you want to talk about thick skin, you may be able to compare with him, Yuan Shao is a child of the family after all, and sometimes he really can't pull his face, and in the end, he was actually pit by Liu Bei for hundreds of stones of grain, but Yuan Shao also successfully released the news, and when sending grain, he shouted with great fanfare that General Yuan sent Liu Bei grain and grass to help him quell the rebellion against Zhang Bao, which was completely the routine of Dong Zhuo of Chengfeng pit. This matter reached Zhang Bao's ears, and he almost didn't get angry to death, if it wasn't for Cheng Feng's such a hand, he wouldn't have fallen to this point, and now Yuan Shao and Liu Bei are painting cats and tigers again, isn't this disgusting, Zhang Bao was originally a gloomy person, but once this kind of person is let go, it is very terrible. Zhang Bao didn't believe that Yuan Shao and Liu Bei could be the same as Cheng Feng, and they could pit themselves again, after all, last time his large army was contained by Dong Zhuo. Thinking of this, Zhang Bao raised his army and went straight to Liu Bei's grain transportation team, as for Lu Zhi, Zhang Bao sent another person to ambush the troops outside, set up more banners, bluffed, and secretly ambushed an elite army, and when Lu Zhi sent troops, he let go of the burning camp!
Yuan Shao and Liu Bei proceeded step by step according to the plan, just waiting for Zhang Bao to rob the grain, after all, Zhang Bao is short of food now, there is such an opportunity, although he knows that there is a problem, he will come to try, as long as Zhang Bao comes, even if he does not die, he will shed his skin. Because both of them have faith in their subordinates!
"Xuande Gong, do you think we can kill Zhang Bao this time?" Yuan Shao is really bored, he and Liu Bei have been inking here for a long time, why hasn't this Zhang Bao appeared yet, don't you really dare to come out? If he hadn't lured the snake out of the hole this time, wouldn't his own food be cheap Liu Bei for nothing!
"Hehe, General Yuan, don't worry, I think Zhang Bao will definitely come, and I will definitely be able to eliminate Zhang Bao this time!" Liu Bei smiled, but prayed in his heart, Zhang Bao, Zhang Bao, you'd better not come, wait for me to get the food, and you can come again. The two of them were delaying the time again, seeing that the grain transport team was about to go away, Liu Bei became more and more happy in his heart, but Yuan Shao was just the opposite, and kept scolding Zhang Bao in his heart! At this time, Zhang Bao had already laid an ambush, as the saying goes, eating a trench grows a wisdom, last time he relied on a large number of people, and wanted to eat Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Army in one bite, and finally let Cheng Feng seize the opportunity and catch himself off guard. This time I learned to be obedient, hundreds of thousands of troops scattered, although I lack food, but it is not as serious as the rumors outside, I have long secretly trained 200,000 troops, there is no shortage of grain and grass, just now Quyang and Hejian Boling themselves secretly stored three grain depots, as for the rumors outside, they are all sent out by themselves, this time their goal is people, to kill and injure the Han army on a large scale, only in this way can the tide of the war be reversed.
Liu Bei was overjoyed in his heart, it seems that he can earn these grains and grass for nothing this time, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao, you didn't expect Zhang Bao to be beaten by us and didn't dare to come out! Looking at Yuan Shao's darkening face, Liu Bei's heart became happier. "Put the rocket" Zhang Bao shouted, a rocket shot directly at the grain convoy, this time it was Zhang Bao's specially made arrow, the power was huge, and the grain and grass were set on fire in an instant, followed by the cavalry directly killed the grain carriers, in just a moment Liu Bei fell from heaven to hell, the smile on his face was still there, it was so stiff, and the duck in his hand flew. Looking at Liu Bei's appearance, Yuan Shao's heart was dark for a while, he actually liked this Zhang Bao a little, and asked you to say cool things here, this time it's stupid, but since Zhang Bao came out, you're welcome!
"Kill!" Liu Bei hurriedly waved his hand, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu led people to kill from behind, they have been pressed and beaten by Zhang Bao recently, this time they can be regarded as seizing the opportunity, the two of them rushed up with a scream, and those who didn't know thought that Zhang Bao was surrounded. Yuan Shao saw that Liu Bei had made a move, and he was embarrassed to hide his secrets anymore, so he hurriedly waved the flag, and Yan Liangwen Chou and others also led troops out of the city and killed Zhang Bao in four ways. In Yuan Shao and Liu Bei's thoughts, Zhang Bao came to rob the grain, and with Lu Zhi to contain him, the troops brought must not be too much, and the two of them must have thirty or forty thousand people in partnership, which should be more than enough to deal with the down-and-out Zhang Bao!
"Kill!" The people on both sides are like playing chicken blood, they all look at each other unpleasantly, and they fight each other in just a moment, Zhang Bao's elite combat effectiveness is obviously stronger than that of the Yuan-Liu coalition army, and they have the upper hand in a short period of time, Zhang Bao ordered to set fire, and there was an orderly resistance, Zhang Bao put on a crazy posture, and at the same time kept sending troops to rush forward to kill, making a state of breakthrough, giving Liu Bei and Yuan Shao a false state that can destroy themselves! The two sides fought for a while, Liu Bei was a little anxious, his subordinates finally saved more than 8,000 people, this fight was not half an hour, there were nearly 1,000 casualties, and if they continued to fight like this, their own family was gone, Yuan Shao was not a thing, he made an offensive posture outside, but unfortunately he did not make any efforts, and the battlefield formed a strange situation under the command of the three people, Zhang Bao surrounded Liu Bei's grain transportation team, and the Yuan-Liu coalition army surrounded Zhang Bao's troops, and the people of the three parties were very happy. Zhang Bao saw that the time was almost up, the banner waved, Zhang Niujiao and brought 50,000 fresh troops from the periphery to kill, Zhang Bao fought Dong Zhuo last time, and he could still win with infantry and cavalry, which shows how strong the combat effectiveness of this group of soldiers is, although Liu Bei's soldiers are powerful, but there are too few people, although Yuan Shaobing has many soldiers, the combat effectiveness is indeed a little low, Zhang Niujiao's army retreated as soon as the coalition army arrived, and then cooperated with Zhang Bao, and directly achieved a decisive advantage.
"Second brother, it can't go on like this!" Zhang Fei waved his spear and retreated, he didn't expect that this group of Yellow Turban Army would be like suddenly opening up, how could they deal with themselves just right, every time they waved their spears, someone would come to resist, if it weren't for their own strength, it would be really difficult to deal with them.
"Third brother, be careful!" Guan Yu shouted violently, waved his big knife, and killed him out of the crowd, and now he has broken up with the army, seeing that his brother was targeted, he quickly killed the past to relieve the siege. Zhang Bao has been beaten by Zhao Yun last time, and he is particularly concerned about these generals who use guns, and he has studied for a long time, and has studied a set of formations specifically to deal with spears, just to deal with Zhao Yun, today Zhang Fei and Wen Chou use a spear and a spear, which can be regarded as letting the Yellow Turban Army practice, the two of them are particularly aggrieved in this battle, their war horses are not as good as Zhao Yun's war horses, this is a hard injury, but neither of them thinks that their martial arts are inferior to Zhao Yun, today the two of them also try to rush to the same as Zhao Yun, and they also plan to have a few in and a few out, It's a pity that the passing year is unfavorable, and I met Zhang Bao, who suffered a loss once. The two of them have a body of martial arts, but they are very aggrieved, and finally see that they are indeed of little effect, so they lead the troops to attack the Yellow Turban Army on the periphery, and no longer attack Zhang Bao, the two of them must open a road as soon as possible, so as to prepare for the retreat!
Guan Yu's big knife is extremely sharp, whether it is a person or a horse, Guan Yu can't help but stab, if Cheng Feng sees it, he will definitely say that Guan Yu is a cow, no matter what demons and monsters you are, you are a knife to worship, and you rule all the bells and whistles! Guan Erye was angry, and the blood flowed thousands of miles, Guan Yu saw that Zhang Fei had broken through outside, and then saw Zhang Bao being proud, so he was angry, and at that moment, Danfeng's eyes narrowed, and he went straight to Zhang Bao with the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in his hand!
