Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Chapter 241 One For One
"Li Meng is dead! Let the traitors from Xiliang be captured before they are tied up!" Sun Jian shouted.

At the same time, Cheng Pu stepped forward and used the fork of the snake spear to pick up Li Meng's head for public display.

Seeing this, the Xiliang cavalry immediately lost all fighting spirit.

"The general is dead, we will retreat!" Li Meng's deputy general Hu Zong took over the command and ordered the retreat.

The tone of the fierce battle changed instantly, and the Xiliang army began to retreat in batches.

However, because of the isolation of the battlefield, the Xiliang army who entered the infantry phalanx did not know that their chief general Li Meng was dead, and they still fought the enemy bravely. misery branch.

Sun Jian was about to pursue, but was stopped by Huang Gai.

"Your Majesty, the Xiliang cavalry are brave and the infantry are hard to resist, so support them quickly!" Huang Gai said.

Sun Jian agreed, gave up chasing Hu Zong, and killed Hu Zong instead.

Xiliang soldiers were in the midst of a fierce battle, when they suddenly heard shouts of killing from behind, they all turned their heads, only to see Sun Jian leading the cavalry back to kill.

All the cavalry couldn't help but wonder.

Why did Sun Jian come back?
Where is General Lee?

Then they heard the shout.

"Li Meng is dead, those who surrender will not be killed!"

When Xiliang soldiers heard it, Li Meng was dead?How is this possible!
Especially the Sima cavalry of the various ministries, it is even more unbelievable that General Li Meng led them to defeat Bao Xin, Wang Kuang, Zhang Miao and other troops.

"Stop talking nonsense! Kill me!" one of the cavalry yelled.

Sun Jian was amazed, this Xiliang soldier was really bloody, and the leader was dead, but he chose not to believe it, and instead broke out with stronger fighting power.

However, even so, Sun Jian's cavalry returned, and they were already in a pincer attack on this Xiliang army. In addition, Sun Jian was extremely brave and took the lead.

Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Huang Gai, and Zu Mao entered the formation one after another, almost no opponents. Soon, the Xiliang army discovered that what they shouted just now might be true!

Because there are no reinforcements in the rear, this means that the rear army has withdrawn, and Li Meng is really defeated!

Once the seeds of doubt were planted, everyone's hearts would be full of doubts, and even the movements of their hands would slow down.

Sun Jian saw that the general situation had been settled, so he shouted: "Zu Mao! Is there any news about Xu Rong?"

Zu Mao slashed with two knives, beheaded one person, took the time to reply: "I don't know!"

Sun Jian always felt that when Li Meng arrived, maybe Xu Rong would also be there. Although Li Meng killed Li Meng in this battle, his gains were limited, and his own infantry was smashed to pieces by Li Meng's cavalry, and the casualties were also high. No longer a minority, this time, it can only be called a small victory.

"Quick battle!" Sun Jian ordered.

If Xu Rong fights out at this time, the chaotic situation of his own side will inevitably end in defeat.

In the last battle, they could have aided Bao Xin's army, but they were suddenly killed by Xu Rong, and ended up being defeated.

Under the attack of infantry and cavalry, all the remaining Xiliang soldiers were wiped out. Looking at the official road with corpses strewn across the field, Sun Jian was once again overwhelmed by the bravery and ferocity of the Xiliang army. In a short period of fighting, the death of his own infantry may be close to a thousand. And the sum of all the Xiliang troops killed by Sun Jian in this battle was not as many as one thousand.

"Zu Mao! Send someone to report the battle situation here to Zhang Miao, and tell him—"

"Xu Rong is here!"

……

People from Yang gathered outside the city of Guangcheng, more than ten miles away.

The current state of this place is not much better than Yang Renju.

Corpses littered the field, and blood flowed into streams.

Xu Rong was dressed in a brown shirt, and immediately slashed his sword, looking at the devastated battlefield, as if waiting for something.

"General, Zhang Miao has fled back to Liang County." The subordinate reported.

"Where's Li Meng? No news yet?" Xu Rong asked.

The subordinate shook his head, obviously not.

"I had a battle with Zhang Miao, and Zhang Miao was defeated. If I hadn't joined hands with Li Meng, I would have gone straight to Liang County!" Xu Rong thrust his saber into the ground, got off his horse, and looked east.

Zhang Miao is here, where will Sun Jian be?

Xu Rong had fought against these two people before, so he naturally knew that Sun Jianqiang was much stronger. Therefore, if he gathered troops from Guangcheng, there would be no reason for Zhang Miao to take the lead.

Could it be that the troops are divided into troops?
Will Sun Jian go the other way and meet Li Meng?

"Report-"

Xu Rong's eyes lit up, and the letter finally arrived.

"Yangren battle report, General Li Meng and Yangren met Sun Jian's army outside, the two armies fought fiercely, General Li Meng died in battle unfortunately, deputy general Hu Zong led the army to retreat."

Xu Rong was taken aback, Li Meng died in battle?
It really was Sun Jian!
"Do you know Sun Jianjun's follow-up actions?" Xu Rong asked.

"I don't know."

Xu Rong cursed secretly in his heart, this is the reason why Hu Zong can't be the leader, he just knows how to run for his life when he is frustrated.

There are only two roads before Sun Jian, continue to march and attack Xincheng, and the second is to retreat to Liang County.

After beheading Li Meng, Sun Jian should be complacent at this time, so it is more likely to continue to advance.

"Send the army to attack Liang County! In addition, send an order to Hu Zong, ordering him to lead the cavalry to drag Sun Jian down, and run away if he can't beat him, don't die!" Xu Rong said.

From the blood-stained ground, the mountains of corpses and the sea of ​​blood, the army that was resting in place got up one after another and began to march.

Zhang Miao was out of breath, and he didn't know how far he ran, but Xu Rongjun didn't seem to give chase. He was riding a horse, but Zhang Miao felt that he had come back after running so far, and his heart still kept beating.

"Gongtai, Xu Rong's combat power is too terrifying. It's not your fault, but the gap between soldiers is too large. Xiliang cavalry is well-deserved!" Zhang Miao said.

Chen Gong's expression on the side was not very good either. This encounter was too unexpected, and it was like walking through the gate of hell. As Zhang Miao said, the Xiliang army was too powerful, and Xu Rong's army was also more numerous. As for him, when he rushed over, these new recruits recruited by Chen Liu were almost completely defeated.

"Ah, master of tiger and wolf, what can I do for it!" Chen Gong sighed.

Zhang Miao looked behind him, and there were only seven to eight hundred soldiers who escaped, and most of them escaped to heaven by virtue of having horses.

There were 4000 people in the two battalions, and there were less than [-] left in the First World War. It can be described as a disastrous defeat.

"Gongtai, what should we do next?" Zhang Miao asked.

"Xu Rong came violently, it must be for Liang County. Even with Li Taishou's soldiers and horses, our army is far from enough. We should call Sun Taishou back to the defense city and make each other horns with Liang County, otherwise Liang County If I can't stand alone, it means that my two ways to challenge Dong Jun will be a complete failure!" Chen Gong said.

"Then send someone quickly to notify General Sun to come back!" Zhang Miao said urgently.

"I don't know if Taishou Sun also encountered the enemy." Chen Gong had no choice but to speculate, what if he did or not, anyway, Zhang Miao was completely defeated, "Your Majesty, the next thing is up to you to decide. Without soldiers in our army, we will not be able to gain corresponding military exploits.”

Xingyang was defeated, losing troops and generals, and Guangcheng gathered in a battle, and almost the whole army was wiped out.

Today's Zhang Miao, strictly speaking, can already return to Chenliu.

Chen Gong's words made Zhang Miao, who was still relaxing about escaping from the birth day, become depressed again.

Yes, what does it matter whether Liang County can defend or not?My own road to seek Dong has come to an end.

For some reason, Zhang Miao suddenly remembered outside the Hulao Pass, and he didn't know if the other military towns had made any achievements?
……

"Come, come! Drink this cup!"

"Thank you Liu Shijun!"

"Liu Shijun is massive, not only leading troops mightily, but also drinking alcohol!"

"Hahaha!"

In the tent of the army, there are staggered cups of wine, Liu Dai is in charge, leading the leaders and generals of all the armies to drink together to strengthen the army!

Yuan Yi looked at the glass of wine in front of him, for some reason, he couldn't say a word.

On the other hand, the other soldiers were obviously full of interest. Liu Dai led the troops mighty?

Yuan Yi sneered, Liu Dai's soldiers were all powerful soldiers gathered from various counties in Yanzhou. It is indeed possible to fight against the Yellow Turbans on weekdays, but to deal with the Xiliang Army, although Yuan Yi did not fight in person, at least he had seen Sun Jian and Sun Wentai Military appearance.

Among all the towns of the Eighteenth Route Army, I am afraid that only Gongsun Zan's soldiers and horses can compare with it.

But for some reason, Yuan Shao didn't give Gongsun Zan the task, but instead handed over the Central Army to Liu Dai. However, in fact, when Liu Dai came to Yuanyong, he didn't seem to do anything other than "strengthening the army".

They just sent people to watch Xingyang, and the invincible "Xu Rong" in Xingyang, for some reason, did not leave the city.

Liu Dai did not attack Xingyang, nor did he dare to enter the Hulao, because he would be intercepted and killed by Xingyang.

In this way, the Central Route Army maintains a strange stalemate.

They didn't even know that it was not Xu Rong who guarded Xingyang at all, but Duan Yan, who was mature and prudent, and Guo Si, who was very brave and ruthless.

These two people complement each other perfectly, because the task given by Dong Zhuo is to defend. After Duan Yan arrived in Xingyang, he began to repair the city and prepare to throw objects, as if he wanted to live and die with Xingyang.

No matter how aggressive Guo Si was, he would not send troops without authorization, because when he begged Duan Yan to go to war, he compromised to let Duan Yan be the general.

Because of Xingyang's silence, there was no one in Liu Dai's army to be consistent with the outside world, and the subtle relationship between Liu Dai and Qiao Mao began to explode.

Now, because of the problem of food and grass, Qiao Mao retreated back to Chenliu without authorization, and Liu Dai kept clamoring for his military law enforcement.

Yuan Yi knew Liu Dai's pettiness, how could he, the prefect of Shanyang, not understand his Shangguan Yanzhou Mu.

After thinking for a while, Yuan Yi persuaded, "Mr. Liu, Hanoi is about to start a war, and General Sun has already gone down to Liang County. Should it be time for our army to enter Xingyang?"

"Boye, it's not like you don't know that Qiaomao retreated without authorization, which caused my front army to be short of troops. How can we attack the city?" Liu Dai spread his hands and threw the question to Qiaomao again, and then said: "Let me do it first. killed him!"

After hearing this, Yuan Yi was helpless.

Persuasion?This is not a social problem at all, but a problem of strength and ability.

In the final analysis, it is because there is one less person who can really coordinate the Allied forces.

At first, he was a little heroic and courageous in his actions, but now he is doing it himself and marching into Hanoi, causing other soldiers and horses to be scattered, and some people can't even solve the basic food and grass problems.

Doesn't Yuan Shao know?

Yuan Yi disagreed.

Yuan Shao knew.

Liu Dai also knew that Yuan Shao knew.

Yuan Shao also knew that Liu Dai knew that Yuan Shao knew.

But Yuan Shao still didn't care.

So Yuan Yi can only talk and persuade, but he can't really manage.

To offend Liu Dai for Qiao Mao?This is not a fool!
In Xingyang City, Guo Si happily copied a military newspaper and ran to the county government.

"Zhongming! Zhongming!"

While trotting, Guo Si called out to Duan Yao.

"Why is General Guo so anxious?" Duan Wei greeted him and asked.

"I'm angry too! Take a look!" Guo Si stuffed the letter to Duan Yao, and at the same time began to recite the content inside.

"Look, Dong Gong said that Huai County in Hanoi fell, and Liang County in Henan fell. Dong Gong sent Xu Rong and Li Meng to recover Liang County! Why, why is there a battle wherever Xu Rong goes? That coward Liu Dai , I have been staying in Yuanyong for a few days, but I dare not send a single soldier! I can't wait, I want to take the initiative to attack and defeat Liu Dai!"

Duan Yanzai looked at it carefully, and then quickly browsed it again.

Dong Gong's letter, Guo Si did say almost the same thing, but he didn't understand the deep meaning.

In Dong Zhuoxin's letter, he mentioned Shihuai County in Hanoi on the north line, and Los Liang County on the south line. The implication is that Xingyang must be guarded and no losses are allowed. It is definitely not to boost morale as Guo Si said and ask him to fight.

"General Guo, stay safe and don't be impatient. Luoyang is surrounded by enemies on three sides. At this time, you must not act arrogantly. Dong Gong ordered me to garrison Xingyang, and his intention is to defend it."

"Hey, Zhongming, you are too cautious. How can I be afraid of those mobs in my majestic Xiliang army! Why don't I lead an army out tonight and go to Yuanyong to rob the camp?" Guo Bang was still relentless, but his tone Very mild.

Looking at Guo Bang's pleading face, Duan Yan felt very unnatural, but it was more comfortable to be fierce.

"General Guo, the military order is like a mountain, you must not act hastily!" Duan Yan continued to refuse solemnly.

Guo Si had no choice but to smack his lips, stretched out his hand to give up, turned his head and left.

Duan Yan looked at Guo Si's figure, with a smile that convinced him.

Guo Si is a mediocre person and will not really get angry.

Only in this way, Xingyang will be stable.

……

Having nothing to do, Liu Qing led the guards to wander around Chaoge. Although after thousands of years, Chaoge has been dilapidated and lost its former glory, every landscape here has something special.

There is a garden in the northeast of Chaoge, named Qi Garden, known as "the first garden in China", which was established in the Western Zhou Dynasty.

It's just that outside some dilapidated buildings that remain today, the vegetation is like wild mountains and old forests.

To the south of Chaoge is the famous Muye. This is the main battlefield where King Wu fought against Zhou. It is said that the two sides fought with millions of troops, but now it has become a fertile field. Liu Qing looked at the vast open space and imagined the scene.

Because of the Black Mountain Army, there are wastelands all over here, and no one has cultivated them at all, although the county magistrate has posted a notice.

No field shall be abandoned!
"My lord, although the number of people who cultivated land is not large, as long as there are people coming, it means that posting a list is still useful." Guo Jia said.

"It's a pity that Hanoi is constantly fighting in a single county, and this year's spring plowing will be delayed!" Liu Qing said.

After hearing this, Guo Jia could only exclaim!
In the lord's own words, that is: The lord wants to win again!
Not only want to occupy Hanoi County, but also think about spring plowing...

But right now this "win-win" is obviously impossible to achieve.

So Guo Jia said: "My lord, if Jizhou does a good job of spring plowing this year and has a good harvest, I'm afraid it can feed half of the people in the world! After my lord takes Hanoi, the people in Hanoi will not go hungry."

Having said that, Liu Qing thought——

I want it all!
