Chapter 85: Rectifying the Military Horse (Gagen)
Saving people is just a gesture for Wei Xuan, but it is just a consumption of a little source power. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info And saving people is to do good deeds, although doing good deeds may not necessarily have good rewards, but sometimes you can often inadvertently harvest surprises.
Wei Xuan helped the victims in Yingchuan, making it easier for him to collect Nanyang. Wei Xuan saved Queen Guo, not only won the loyalty of the old servant, but also made many Nanjun officials happy and convinced of him. If Wei Xuan rescued Sun Jian's son, it might also be possible to make Sun Jian's old department willing to surrender.
However, it may be only possible after all, and it also means uncertain. If it was Sun Quan who was injured, Wei Xuan would not hesitate to rescue, but now that it was Sun Ce, Wei Xuan had to think about it more.
This is not to say that Sun Quan is gentler and easier to deal with than Sun Ce, but that Sun Quan is only eight years old, and he will only be seventeen years old in another nine years. Therefore, it is absolutely safe for Wei Xuan to treat Sun Quan.
And Sun Ce is fifteen years old, and he is so brave and ruthless, even if Wei Xuan saves him, he may not appreciate it, and even will take revenge, Wei Xuan is not willing to stage a story of Mr. Dongguo and the wolf in reality.
Seeing Wei Xuan's hesitation, Wu suddenly hugged Wei Xuan's right leg and said, "If the adults are not at ease, you can scrap Ce'er's hands, as long as you can keep him alive!"
It's better to die than to live, Wu is a smart person, she understands this sentence more thoroughly than anyone else, and she is more decisive than anyone else.
Wei Xuan couldn't help but shake his head and said, "If he wastes his hands, he won't be happy alive." That's it, Wei will save him, I just hope that he will not be an enemy of Wei in the future, otherwise it will be the reincarnation of the gods, and it will be difficult to save him for the second time!"
After speaking, Wei Xuan put his hand on Sun Ce's wrist. As a source force was slowly sent into Sun Ce's body, Sun Ce's breathing gradually stabilized, and the temperature on the surface of his body gradually dissipated. Wu and Ding looked at this scene incredulously, and were speechless in surprise.
"When he wakes up, tell him to do it himself!" Wei Xuan had already withdrawn his hand, dropped a sentence lightly, and left the small room where Sun Jian's family was imprisoned.
......
Xu Huang and Dian Wei's progress in Nanyang was extremely smooth, and the counties were almost desperate, and within a day they had already besieged Wancheng. Ji Ling went out of the city to fight, fought with Dian Wei for more than 30 rounds, and finally fled cowardly and fled back to the city without leaving the door. According to Dian Wei's temperament, he wanted to kill the head of the city with all his might, but was stopped by Xu Huang.
In the era of cold weapons, siege battles were extremely costly, and human lives were often used to pave a bloody road to the city. Xu Huang knew that Wei Xuan had just gained a foothold in Nanjun, so he naturally didn't want his subordinates to suffer too many casualties, so he thought about it and said, "Yuan Shu went north to the Tiger Prison, and his baggage was all in Luyang. It's better to divide the troops all the way, feint to attack it, Ji Ling will save it, and then intercept and kill it on the road, Wancheng can be obtained!"
Dian Wei thought so, and immediately led 3,000 cavalry to the north and threatened to attack Luyang.
Luyang County is located at the junction of Nanyang and Yingchuan and Runan counties, after Yuan Shu responded to Yuan Shao's call to raise troops, he used it as a base camp, and the mobilization of soldiers and horses, the supply of grain and grass, all took Luyang County as a base. Hearing that the soldiers and horses of Nanjun were going to attack Luyang, Ji Ling was taken aback. If Lu Yang is lost, Yuan Shu's 50,000 army will be in chaos without a fight, and he can't afford this crime.
Changshi Yang Hong advised: "The southern army is strong, and the general should stick to the city and wait for the lord to return to the division." ā
Ji Ling said: "I have heard that the grain and grass in Xiangyang were all robbed by Sun Jian, and the southern army was short of food and could not last. If Lu Yang loses, it will help his military resources! Please ask Lord Yang to defend the city, and I will save him!"
Yang Hong persuaded Ji Ling not to stop, so he could only watch him go out of the city.
That night, a fire suddenly broke out in the city, and a sergeant opened the city gate and let the Xiangyang soldiers and horses enter the city. Yang Hong woke up in his sleep, and in a panic, he had to abandon his wife and children, and fled through the back door with dozens of horses. Yuan Shu and his subordinates Ji Ling, Yu She, and other family members were all taken prisoner.
Yang Hong fled all the way to Luyang, but met Ji Ling halfway leading hundreds of defeated and remnant horses. It turned out that Ji Ling led the troops to rescue Luyang, traveled to the vicinity of Pheasant County, and suddenly encountered Dian Wei's ambush. Ji Ling hurriedly wanted to fight, but the team had already been rushed to pieces. Ji Ling knew that he was invincible to Dian Wei, so he had to lead the army to flee back, only then did he know that Wancheng had been lost.
You look at me, you look at you, I look at you. Ji Ling sighed and said, "I regret not listening to the words of adults, Ji has no shame to go to see the lord." ā
Yang Hong gritted his teeth and said: "Victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and generals must not be discouraged." Luyang still has money, food, soldiers and horses, so let's go there and make plans. ā
The two discussed and stopped, joined forces, and came to Luyang. At this time, the sky was already bright, and I saw the flag fluttering on the head of Luyang City from a distance, and there was a big "classic" word on the flag. However, after Dian Wei defeated Ji Ling, he took advantage of the situation to capture Luyang County.
Ji Ling saw that there were only a few hundred men and horses under his men, and it was obviously impractical to recapture Luyang, so he had to smile wryly, and walked around the city with Yang Hong, and went to the Tiger Prison Pass to cast Yuan Shu.
Dian Wei saw Ji Ling and others passing by the city at the head of the city, and hurriedly ordered to prepare horses, open the door and chase closely.
It happened that Xu Huang arrived and shouted later: "Evil comes slowly!"
Dian Weiler stopped his horse and said in surprise: "Why don't you chase and kill it, and get rid of the troubles!"
Xu Huang said with a smile: "Let him report to Yuan Shu, it can mess with Yuan Shu's heart." We can also collect our troops and report back to the Lord!"
......
Wei Xuan left Luoyang on the eighth day of October, and by October 15, seven days had exterminated the two thieves of Su Dai and Bei Yu, pacified the two counties of Changsha and Nanyang, and eliminated 55 clan leaders. Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue, Cai Mao and other former ministers of Jingzhou saw his resolute behavior, and they were secretly stunned.
However, Wei Xuan was not satisfied with this, and immediately ordered the army to be reorganized.
At this time, Wei Xuan's men had 3,300 soldiers and horses he brought out from Luoyang, which was his personal guard. There are 15,000 infantry, 5,000 cavalry, 10,000 naval troops of the old army of Nanjun, plus 20,000 clan militia recruited, and 15,000 troops from Changsha and Nanyang counties, and nearly 70,000 troops under his command.
Although there are a lot of 70,000 troops, it is far from enough to compete for the world, not to mention that these soldiers and horses are not evenly matched, and they are not an elite army, and rectification is imperative.
Kuai Liang persuaded: "The lord wants to rectify the military horses, and it is understandable. However, the soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first. Jingzhou was in a great drought last year, and all the money and grain in Nanjun were looted by Sun Jian, and there was not much left in the treasury of Changsha and Nanyang counties. Please also ask the lord not to be in a hurry and think twice. ā
Wei Xuan said with a smile: "The matter of money and food, don't worry about Mr. Lao Zirou, Wei has his own way." It's just that I want you to teach me how to straighten out this military horse. ā
