Chapter 527: Battle Jinyang
Bai Lang entered the Taishou Mansion and heard that Guo Tu, a minister under Yuan Shao, was here. Bai Lang was convenient for the Taishou Mansion to meet him, only to see that this person sent a letter but it was written by Yuan Shao himself, Bai Lang unfolded the brocade silk and saw that it was a tone of admiration for him, Bai Lang looked up at Guo Tu. The picture is also a gift, "The general is brave and crowns the world, and Yuan Jizhou has admired him for a long time." If you are swaying today, it is the time for heroes to use force. I know that the ambition of the general's life is to support the Han family, and the ambition of my lord Yuan Jizhou's life is also the same......"
Bai Lang knew what this meant as soon as he heard it, how to say that his IQ was not low, didn't this Yuan Shao's intention be to recruit him as a fierce general? If the recruitment is successful, not only will there be a number of fierce generals in the world, but he will even be able to catch half of the state, which is really a good deal. "Let me think about it. Bai Lang asked Guo Tu to stay in the guest room of Taishou Mansion, and he took the letter himself to "consider".
Although Bai Lang is a state pastor who has just been sealed by the imperial court, there have been no strategists who have defected to him so far. Maybe it's also because he has occupied Xihe Taiyuan for a short time, or maybe it's because there are many martial artists in Bingzhou, and there are few strategists, and the strategists have gone out to make a living elsewhere. "I suddenly remembered that I was still the state pastor of Lu Bu. Bai Lang touched his explosive beard and said with a smile, he didn't need to find a strategist, because he had decided from the beginning that it was impossible to vote for Yuan Shao.
There is nothing else, just dissatisfied with Yuan Shao's son-in-law and wanting to make Liu Yu the emperor instead of rescuing the little emperor. But after all, Liu Bei thought that Emperor Xian was dead before he ascended the throne, and whether this position could be up or down can only be "wrong". "Forget it, don't think about it, appease Guo Tu today, and reject him tomorrow. ”
Bai Lang didn't like the wine at this time, after eating dinner, he practiced martial arts for a while, and then went to sleep after reading a book.
At this time, the heroes, such as Yuan Shao, did not have a daughter who could marry, otherwise they would recruit Bai Lang as their son-in-law. Bai Lang was lying on the bed, but he was counting which beauties in the world, a famous woman at this time..... Lu Bu's concubine Diao Chan counts as one, Cai Yong's widow Cai Yan counts as one, and the others seem to be gone? It seems that Yuan Shao's daughter-in-law Zhen Ji hasn't married yet, right?
In such cranky thoughts, Bai Lang fell asleep.
The next day, Bai Lang got up early in the morning to practice martial arts, and the cloud water lance turned freely in his hand, and the spur was like an evil dragon out of the water, and the slash was like thunder and lightning. At this time, Bai Lang did not bring a double iron mace, but brought a thin iron shovel and a Huanshou knife made in addition, there was no way if he really brought all the horses, he would be unbearable, Bai Lang did not have a high-headed horse in his hand.
His snowflake blue is only five and a half feet tall at the shoulder, which is already a very good war horse. But whether it is strength or visual effects, it is far inferior to Lu Bu's red rabbit.
After the martial arts performance ended, Bai Lang also met Guo Tu again, he took out the letterhead he had written and gave it to Guo Tu, "Although he is not talented, he doesn't want to vote for Yuan Benchu." If you want to set up Liu Bo'an and Liu Yuanjun as the emperor, where can this be regarded as loyal to the Han family. After that, he asked Guo Tu to leave, "Bai Bingzhou wants to die?" Guo Tu was quite bold and said this. "The state is here, and Yuan Benchu wants to take it, and he will lead a large army to take it. ”
After Guo Tu left, Bai Lang also sighed, and the guards left and right were clouded, "I don't know what the general is sighing about?"
"It's just that Yuan Benchu came here and had to fight, so he had no time to attack the pass and drive away the Xiliang traitors. Bai Lang said, and Yuan Shao's army seemed to have already prepared, and directly led the army by Yan Liangwen and Zhang He, Gao Lan, Hebei Sitingzhu, and approached Jinyang directly, which was very important to Bai Lang. Lu Bunai is a brave general who is unparalleled in the world, and Bai Lang can compete with him, so he is naturally a fierce general.
The people of the time even said that the so-called cavalry battle is Lu Bu, and the foot battle is Bailang Wushuang. His deeds of single-handedly raiding Hangu Pass are also famous all over the world, and Bai Lang is also a loyal and righteous person in the Han family today, so that Li Guo and they have to pinch their noses to give him an official. Bai Lang also took his 3,000 soldiers, that's right, the entire Xihe County plus the entire Taiyuan Half County was all the troops, and the rest were driven back to farming after Bai Lang divided the land.
Among them were 800 cavalry, 2,200 infantry, among the infantry were 800 crossbowmen, the rest of the 1,000 spearmen, and 400 sword and shield men. Because the Bailang army plundered the Xiongnu and collected tens of thousands of Xiongnu and Qiang people for farming and grazing, the military rations were dragged by horse-drawn carts, and a large number of cattle and sheep were also driven as military rations. The entire Xihe army looked more like the Xiongnu and Qiang armies in addition to equipment, and countless cattle and sheep were moving with them.
Bai Lang ordered the foot soldiers to drive the cattle and sheep behind the more than a dozen guards he promoted, and he himself led eight hundred cavalry to rush directly to Jinyang City. Yuan Shaoji had 80,000 troops in Jizhou, and 20,000 in the vanguard arrived in Jinyang City. Although Jinyang City is closed and not opened, it should not resolutely resist. After all, they did not resist Bai Lang, and naturally they would not resist the army of Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao.
Besides, most of the county army in Jinyang City that was disbanded by Bai Lang couldn't defend it, the reason why the four forwards didn't attack the city was because they wanted to fight Bai Lang outside the city, and if they defended the city, it was likely to limit their mobility, and they already knew that Bai Lang rushed over with cavalry first. Bai Lang arrived, regardless of fatigue, of course, the main reason was that the cavalry behind him was a little tired, but the morale was very high.
Bai Lang is too guarded, and the only good thing is that he finally created a decent armor for himself. This armor was like fish scales, and pieces of tongue-shaped iron the size of a child's palm were originally meant to be worn with belts, but Bai Lang asked the craftsman to replace the belt with iron rings, which increased the weight and made the armor stronger. From the two bells draped on the body to the armguards on the arm, to the hanging skirt and the leg guards and the armor on the feet, the whole person seems to be wrapped in fish scales like a dragon.
There is no neck guard or high collar, only a semi-circular piece of standing armor in front of the throat is slightly covered. This armor is not bloated, Bai Lang knows that he can't add horse armor, otherwise his snowflake blue impact twice will be weak. Now he has more than 400 pounds of weapons with people and armor, and it is already very difficult for him to carry the horse. If it weren't for the fact that the war horses of this world were not the Mongolian horses of later generations but more similar to the war horses of Central Asia, otherwise they would really not be usable.
As soon as Bai Lang arrived, he also rushed directly to the front of Yuan Shao's army to challenge, and drove the eight hundred cavalry behind him to directly press Yuan Shao's forward. If Yuan's army had no one to pick up the soldiers, his morale would have weakened slightly, and he could immediately take the cavalry into battle. So he shouted, "I'm here to fight you!" and a general in Yuan's army came out.
