Chapter 42: Zhang Liao
"This ...... Is this all true? ”
Jia Xu looked at the battle report in his hand, and couldn't believe it, what does it mean for one person to enter the customs and take the pass.
Jia Xu knows these words, but how they are connected, Jia Xu doesn't know them.
"Now that Tongguan has been conquered, Your Majesty is having a banquet with many generals in Tongguan, and there must be no fake."
Jia Xu put aside the letter in his hand, and was once again glad that he had taken refuge with the Son of Heaven.
"Has Your Majesty ever been injured?"
"Your Majesty has more than 100 arrow wounds on his body, countless sword and gun wounds, and a medical officer has been called for treatment, and the medical officer said that those injuries are only skin wounds, not fatal."
"That's good...... That's good. ”
It's good to say that this is good, and I don't know if it's because the forest tree won't endanger his life, or because the forest tree will be injured.
Jia Xu sat down slowly, and only when Lin Mu was injured would Jia Xu feel that Lin Mu was just a person with strong martial arts.
If it weren't for the fact that he could see blood with a knife, Jia Xu would have suspected that Lin Mu was a god.
"Pass on my military order, and the army will rush to Tongguan."
Tongguan is the barrier of Chang'an, if Tongguan is captured, it means that the imperial court can enter Chang'an from Tongguan at any time as long as it wants.
Now that Lin Mu has seized this Tongguan, it is like aiming at Lu Bu with a bow and arrow, as long as Lu Bu relaxes for a moment, then this arrow will be inserted in Lu Bu's head.
As long as Lu Bu learns the news of the loss of Tongguan, he will definitely come to Tongguan and want to recapture Tongguan again.
And there were only 3,000 people left in the hands of the Son of Heaven, and the original 5,000 people were killed and wounded more than 1,000 when they fought with Song Xian.
And later, the prisoners who were scattered were brought back, and soldiers were also needed.
As a result, there are only 3,000 people around Lin Mu, or even less than 3,000.
At this time, it was already dark, and the army was new to Tongguan, and they were not familiar with Tongguan, and Lin Mu was injured again.
Once there is a good general, take advantage of the night to lead troops to raid Tongguan, it is bound to be dangerous.
Generally, of course, no general has such courage, but how can the hope of victory be placed on the stupidity of the other side when marching and fighting.
Seeing that the soldiers were out, one of the lieutenants stood up.
"What about us, general?"
Jia Xu was in the army, and the soldiers and soldiers naturally did not call him civilian, so he was called a general.
Seeing the deputy general ask, Jia Xu Shi Ran took a sip of tea.
"Naturally, I want to sit in the army, you wait first, and I will be in the rear."
"No!"
Jia Xu's concerns are indeed very reasonable, and Jia Xu is worthy of being a top strategist of the Han Dynasty.
If other people really don't have this list, but they are stationed in Huayin City outside Tongguan, but Zhang Liao.
Zhang Liao is already strong in martial arts, proficient in strategy, and can perceive the enemy's situation, the most important thing is to be bold and careful.
Although Zhang Liao was still not famous at this time, he was only one of the eight strong generals under Lu Bu.
But in the future, when Lu Bu was killed by Cao Cao, Zhang Liao returned to Cao Cao.
Zhang Liao had insight into the enemy's situation and persuaded Chang to surrender.
Attack Yuan's and move to Hebei.
In the battle of White Wolf Mountain, he led the vanguard to break Wuhuan and kill Wuhuan Shan Yu Dun.
Expelled Liaodong general Liu Yi.
Calm down the rebellion in the army with static braking.
marched into Jianghuai to defeat Chen Lan and Mei Cheng.
Since then, he has been guarding Hefei for a long time, and in Hefei he is a heavyweight 100,000 troops who attacked Sun Quan with 800 cavalry, and Sun Quan was almost killed.
It can be said that the outstanding character is a fierce character, but when Lu Bu was alive, he was not very famous.
Or maybe it's because Lu Bu is alive and there are some obstacles to Zhang Liao's play.
But even so, Zhang Liao also highlighted his value.
On the night of Dong Zhuo's death, Lu Bu led the soldiers of Bingzhou to prepare to return to Bingzhou.
But at the suggestion of Zhang Liao, Lu Bu gained a foothold in Chang'an.
This became a warlord who divided one place, and because of this, Lu Bu also relied on Zhang Liao.
Among the three people in Huayin City, Zhang Liao, Cheng Lian, and Hou Cheng, Zhang Liao is the leader.
"Tongguan is lost."
Zhang Liao looked at the many soldiers running from the direction of Tongguan on the city wall, and couldn't help but sigh.
"I'll let the scouts step up their patrols, and the soldiers will be ready for battle."
"There's no hurry."
Zhang Liao waved his hand and told Cheng Lian not to worry.
"The road to Tongguan is already steep, if the night march army has not yet left the mountain, I am afraid that it will be exhausted."
After listening to Zhang Liao's explanation, Cheng Lian suddenly realized.
While the two were talking, Hou Cheng had already walked to the city wall with one person.
The person who waited for the belt was not only disheveled, but he didn't know where the armor had been lost, and even one of his boots had run away.
"This person is Wei Xu's own soldier, he should know something."
Zhang Liao came to this person, saw that this person's voice was already a little hoarse, and handed his water bag to this person.
Although when he saw these deserters, Zhang Liao already knew that the imperial army's army had broken through Tongguan, but he didn't know how it was broken.
In Zhang Liao's view, it is impossible to break this Tongguan at all.
Tongguan already had an army of 10,000, plus Lu Bu's 15,000 army supporting Tongguan, there were 25,000 people.
Coupled with the blessing of the terrain of Tongguan, Zhang Liao couldn't figure out how the imperial army broke through Tongguan even if he thought about it.
"The humble post was originally General Wei's personal soldiers......"
The soldiers began to slowly tell what was happening in Tongguan.
"Bastard!"
After Zhang Liao heard that Song Xian had actually run to Hongnong County with his men and horses to loot, he slapped it on the wall tiles of the city wall.
"Dare to go out of the customs to face the battle! This Song Xianhe should be beheaded! ”
The soldiers glanced at Zhang Liao in fear, and then went on, when he heard that the Son of Heaven rushed into Tongguan alone, Zhang Liao thought of the possibility of the defeat of the defenders of Tongguan.
"But because the Son of Heaven was beheaded, the imperial army broke through with the momentum of mourning the army?"
The soldier shook his head.
"Is that the soldier was afraid of the Son of Heaven, killed three generals, and then surrendered?"
The soldier shook his head again.
Zhang Liao thought about it again.
"Is that the general of Guanzhong descended because he was afraid of the Son of Heaven?"
The soldier shook his head again.
Cheng Lian was a little impatient.
"Then it can't be the Son of Heaven who killed Cao Xuan and the three of them alone, right?"
After Zhang Liao heard Cheng Lian say this, he couldn't help but shake his head.
How is this possible, even if Lu Bu is in a place like Tongguan, it is impossible to rush through the pass and kill people alone.
If it is in the open area, it is possible to do it with the red rabbit horse.
But Zhang Liao didn't expect that the soldiers nodded with palpitations, and then said.
"After the Son of Heaven entered the customs alone, he first killed General Cao, then slashed General Hao in the siege, and then rushed to the pass to kill General Wei with an axe, and after the death of General Wei, he wanted to come forward to avenge General Wei, but he didn't expect to be rushed out of the pass by the rebels."
Zhang Liao glanced at the pro-soldier in front of him, silently pulled out the knife on his waist and put it on the neck of the pro-soldier.
"How dare you talk such nonsense, don't you dare to kill you!"
