Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 496 Jingzhou Liu Biao
Huang Zhong copied Sun Ce's rear line, while Wu Sheng's deployment was ready and ready.

Wu Sheng is the most experienced general in the Xuzhou Army, and night battles are not his first experience. He was one of the night battles that captured Pengcheng that day. Guan, what's more, this time in the wild, many people attack the few?
However, pre-war mobilization is still necessary.Because this is the military law of the royal government.

As a person who traveled through time in later generations, there was an example of a strong army that was completely backward in equipment but could create the myth of invincibility at the beginning of the founding of the Chinese Empire. Wang Zheng naturally knows how terrifying an army that has given full play to its initiative is. .

This is not even simply described as boosting morale, so Wang Zheng formulated the military law, expressly stipulating that in every battle, no matter how big or small, as long as it is not rushing to meet the enemy, the whole army must be mobilized.

If time is tight, it is also necessary to gather officers above Duber for agitation and propaganda.On the one hand, if the enemy is strong and we are weak, we can use this to strengthen our determination to fight.

On the other hand, if the enemy is weak and we are strong, it can also dispel the whole army's desire to underestimate the enemy.In other words, no matter whether you are fighting a tiger or a rabbit, you must do your best.

Wu Sheng was originally a rough man, so he didn't think too much. Huang Zhong was extremely concise, but he was even more straightforward.

Summon the generals above Dubo and order them to line up in several rows according to their official positions. Then Wu Shengce climbed to a high place on a slope, raised his Hongyi knife high, pointed at the night sky, and shouted in a low voice: "I will follow the general." Since the uprising, whenever we confront the enemy, we have only done three things."

Looking down at the generals with fierce eyes like jackals, Wu Sheng paused every word: "That is to meet the enemy, defeat the enemy, and then cut off their heads!"

"This time will not be an exception. If there is an exception, you don't need to speak to the general. I will cut off your heads first. This general will be straight, but whenever there is a war, you will see your heads roll. As for the enemy, it is yours. Err Wait for your choice!"

"If you win the battle, you don't need to say much. I will report it to the general and don't hesitate to reward him generously. Huang Zhong's military report made it very clear. The maximum number of grandsons who are chasing us is three to 2000. How many people do we have? Huh?"

All the people replied in unison: "If there are more than ten thousand troops, we will fight against the bandits several times!"

"Not bad!"

Wu Sheng waved his long knife and shouted: "We are invincible even if we fight more with less, let alone now we beat the few with the crowd?" Then he spat on the ground and said, "Today's battle is not only about winning, but also fighting against the few." The head of the enemy general must be cut off!"

All the generals responded with a bang, and seeing that Wu Sheng had nothing else to say, they all gave a military salute, scattered in all directions, and rode into the battle position one after another.

Although Wu Sheng's words were rude, they were not unreasonable, and they were indeed very useful. Even system soldiers sometimes needed to boost morale and morale, not to mention that although his troops were numerous, there were quite a few new recruits, even former soldiers. Before long, he also surrendered to the enemy's soldiers.

Originally, the fighting spirit was not high, but he came to a foreign country like Jiangdong. The place of life is sparse, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and the enemy is the famous Sun Ce army. Even if there are many people, there will inevitably be some panic. Under such circumstances, it is better to intimidate them than to promise them with kindness.

The battle at the foot of Zipeng Mountain is imminent, like two gathered fists, accumulating strength for each other, waiting for each other, just waiting for an earth-shattering blow.

In the night, Wu Sheng watched the generals go away, just now he jumped off his horse, chose a place to sit down at random, put the long knife by his leg, and immediately frowned.

Seeing this, a personal soldier hurriedly approached and asked in a low voice: "Yingtou, what are you thinking?"

Just like Wang Zheng is now the herd of Xuzhou, but many veterans in the Tianjun are still more accustomed to being called "generals". Some of the soldiers around Wu Sheng are also called battalion heads rather than generals.

"Mr. Guo doesn't allow me to charge in person, I'm really not used to it."

Wu Sheng didn't reply at first, instead he muttered and complained a few words before he said: "I was thinking, even if we surround this sun thief army and eat him all, if the sun thief hiding in the mountain doesn't Ken comes out. What should we do next."

The soldiers replied: "Guo Jijiu's military newspaper said that he has sent envoys to Chengde, hoping to attract Yuan Shu's troops to support our army. But there is no news yet."

"If there are more people on the road, even if the grandson of Zipeng Mountain cannot be wiped out, we can go directly to Shu County without any worries."

"Yuan Shu?"

Wu Sheng sat with his legs crossed, and sneered: "It was so important to fight Lu'an before, and Yuan Shufang still hasn't seen any movement. Can he still count on the Yangzhou Army now? Mr. Guo is also a smart person, so he has such crazy thoughts, really."

"It's not necessarily the camp head."

The soldier smiled and said: "At the time of Lu'an, the sun thief had no defeats, and his momentum was terrifying. Yuan Shu probably wanted to watch the fire from the other side. Anyway, if we fight here, we and the sun thief can be regarded as a real fight. The general no matter what. We will not withdraw our troops at this moment."

"Now Lu'an, Hefei Kefu, and Shucheng have generals who are still safe, but the situation is different. Doesn't Yuan Shu want his Yangzhou army to capture Sun Ce? To put it bluntly, he is the one who rebelled?"

Hearing this, Wu Sheng was taken aback, he just didn't like to think too much, he wasn't really out of his mind, after thinking about it, he also felt that what the soldier said was not unreasonable.

"If the Yangzhou Army is willing to participate in the war, that would be the best."

Wu Sheng looked at the night sky and murmured: "If this is the case, then it doesn't matter if the sun thief in Zipeng Mountain is willing to come out or not."

"If you are willing to come out, we will just kill it. If you don't want to come out, the Yangzhou army will attack and cooperate with us to cross the mountain with Huang Zhong."

When Yangzhou was in flames, Liu Biao in Jingzhou could not sleep at night.

Nanjun, in the city of Xiangyang.

Liu Biao was discharged from the hospital with his clothes on. He walked to the window and looked at the northeast direction of the night sky. Hearing the muffled thunder outside the clouds, he felt something in his heart, and said leisurely: "This year's early autumn, the spirit of killing is quite strong."

Hearing this, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun in the hall looked at each other for a while, Zhang Yun stepped forward and said: "Sun Ce has sent another envoy to write a letter, and he arrived in Xiangyang this afternoon, did uncle see you or not?"

Zhang Yun's mother is Liu Biao's sister, so she calls herself the lord in public, but Zhang Yun is more used to calling Liu Biao uncle in private, to express his closeness.

Hearing this, Liu Biao didn't answer immediately, instead he shook his head slightly, walked around the hall again, sat on the mat, and Meiji cleansed his hands with incense and rubbed his temples lightly, after a while he said lightly: "If you see me, The envoy asked me why I have not sent troops so far, and how should I respond?"

"This"

Naturally, Zhang Yun was in favor of sending troops, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to remind Sun Ce of the envoy, but since he is Liu Biao's nephew, he naturally knew very well what this Jingzhou shepherd was thinking at this time.

In addition, this time, Sun Ce has actually sent envoys for the third time, and the purpose of each time is actually the same, which is to invite Liu Biao to send troops on the grounds of "carving up Yangzhou".

The first time, when Yuan Shugang sent Li Ren to Xuzhou to seek help from Wang Zheng, Yuan Shu had just been defeated by Liu Bei, and his vitality was seriously injured. Self-reliance and backstabbing can be described as one disaster after another. At this time of internal and external difficulties, Liu Biao was naturally moved and readily agreed. At the same time, he ordered the Jingzhou army to mobilize and make preparations to go north at any time.

As a result, Wang Zheng made great fanfare and divided his troops into two groups, and rushed to aid Yangzhou by water. Liu Biao was very afraid of the Xuzhou Army, which had performed outstandingly in foreign wars in recent years.

The second time, it was Sun Ce who successively captured important towns such as Xiang'an, Linhu, and Hefei, and completely defeated Liu Xun, the prefect of Lujiang. , As a result, just a hundred miles out of the city, they received news that the Xuzhou army had captured Longshu.

If that's the case, it's fine, the most important thing is that Liu Biao got a piece of information from the sentry, and the leader of the Xuzhou Army along the way is Huang Zhong!
If it is said that the person who knows Huang Zhong's capabilities best in this world, besides Wang Zheng, a traveler from later generations, is naturally Liu Biao, Huang Zhong's old boss who served for many years.

He has always known Huang Zhong's ability, not only has the bravery of ten thousand men, but also has the ability to shoot through Yang with a hundred steps. It is extremely difficult for such a person to guard the north of the Lujiang River.

Of course, this time Liu Biao was not prepared to back down from the battle from the very beginning. The reason why he stood still was that he wanted to send his cronies to contact Huang Zhong first, so that Long Shu could go down without a fight.

As a result, the courier didn't even see Huang Zhong's side. Not long after, Liu Biao received the news that Huang Zhong had conquered Hefei, and that he was attacking Liu'an back and forth with another Xuzhou army.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows at a glance that Xuzhou's reinforcements will soon reach Shu County after Lu'an. At this time, Sun Ce not only lost two important towns, but also lost several generals, especially Han Dang and Huang Gai. To a certain extent, he can be regarded as the face of Sun Ce today.

Liu Biao, who felt that Sun Ce's strength was greatly damaged, changed his mind again, withdrew his troops and returned to the camp, and continued to retreat to Xiangyang, watching from the sidelines.

For Liu Biao, it doesn't matter who wins among Sun Ce, Wang Zheng, and Yuan Shu as long as he never really ends.

No matter how angry Sun Ce was at his repeated breaches of trust, even if Yuan Shu and Wang Zheng knew that he had intended to take advantage of the situation to loot, as long as there was no provocation on the surface, these three families would not take the initiative to choose to fight against him in Jingzhou.

Of course, Liu Biao naturally has ambitions for Yangzhou in his heart. Although he is a relative of the Han family, he is actually the same as other princes in his heart. up.

It's just that other people think that the old Liu's family is exhausted, but Liu Biao thinks that it's just Changsha Ding Wang Liu Fa's line (Liu Xiu belongs to this line) is not suitable to be the master of the family.

King Ding can't do it, so he can be replaced by a descendant of King Lu of his lineage.

Therefore, Liu Biao is very confident in his heart. The other princes conquered each other and fought against each other. They were traitors and thieves with the intention of usurping. No matter what Liu Biao did, he was trying to set things right and continue the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty!
For such a lofty purpose, Liu Biao never took some details to heart.

Speaking of treachery, didn't his ancestor Liu Bang also bear the Chu-Han alliance?Speaking of pleasing the enemy, didn't Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu also please the enemy who killed his brother?
As far as Liu Biao's army is concerned, the navy has [-] troops, and the army has more than [-]. It is an extremely large force in today's world.

Therefore, when the three-party meeting in Yangzhou entered a critical moment, once Liu Biao sent troops to join the battle, even without going all out, it was enough to determine success or failure!

Therefore, even though Liu Biao broke his promise twice, Sun Ce still restrained his anger and sent messengers to ask him to send troops again.

But Liu Biao is also clear that the biggest advantage of his family or Jingzhou now is to stand aloof from the outside world and not easily make enemies with any force.

In fact, this is indeed the case. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the only famous person who died at the hands of Liu Biao and the Jingzhou army was Sun Jian, which was also provoked by him and Yuan Shu.

It is precisely because of Liu Biao's ruling philosophy that under his painstaking management, the eight counties of Jingzhou have become a relatively safe separatist force compared to the Central Plains, and many people in the north have fled to Jingzhou for refuge. In addition to the common people, there are also many noble families.

There is no certainty of victory, even if the opponent is a rebellious minister who pretends to be the emperor, a rebel who is a Yellow Turban bandit, Liu Biao does not want to take the sword easily.

After pondering for a long time, Liu Biao was still unable to make a decision, Sun Ce's army was strong, but Wang Zheng's previous achievements were also extraordinary, and now that his reinforcements have arrived, it is really unpredictable for a while.

And wait a little longer.
He let out a long breath, thinking in his heart.

Just as Liu Biao was tossing and turning, scenes of fierce battles were being staged from time to time in the not-so-wide south of Lujiang County and around Shu County.

Since Wu Sheng and Huang Zhong approached each other, Sun Ce and Wang Zheng have been engaged in a new round of battle of wits and courage, and when the battle has developed to the present, the chess pieces of both sides can be regarded as falling into the clear.

The chessboard is like a battlefield, and you can't regret your moves.Regardless of whether it is true or false, since it has been realized, the rest cannot be controlled by chess players.

Those who achieve great things half obey the destiny and half follow the manpower. After the manpower is finished, the next thing is to look at the fate.

Shu County County Government.

Wang Zheng held Zhuo Li with his hands behind his back, looking at the night sky with a pair of tiger eyes that were flickering, and said with emotion: "When autumn comes and September [-]th, I will kill the flowers after they bloom!"

As he spoke, he looked around at Zhou Hui, Wei Yan, Qiao Wan and the others, and said with a loud smile, "I wonder if the world in front of me will be completely new at this time tomorrow?"

It's not September at this time, so it's not the right time to write this text, but everyone can hear the murderous aura in this poem about chanting chrysanthemums. Outlined that somewhere outside the city, two armies were lining up and fighting desperately, and my heart shuddered.

Everyone knows very well that sticking to Shu County for nearly a month is actually being passively beaten for nearly a month.

It was so easy to look forward to the arrival of reinforcements from Xuzhou, and formally launched a confrontation with He Qi's troops. Can this turn things around in one fell swoop and turn passive beatings into active attacks?
The key lies in the battle tonight!
