Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Chapter 286 Bulls, Demons and Snakes Jump Out

The first one is to go to the Taishan Army to fight the Yellow Turban, but Lu Bu directly rejected it.

He was fed up with fighting bandits and bandits without any challenge. If it wasn't for the problem of eating, he wouldn't want to use Bingzhou cavalry to deal with these unarmored civilian troops.

As for the second article, he served as the king of Bohai and merged with Liu Qing, the prefect of the state.

Lu Bu was lost in thought.

When fighting against foreign nations, he met Liu Qing once. At that time, Liu Qing was the prefect of Yanmen. He had just wiped out the army of the Southern Huns, and he was full of ambition. Compared with the Dingyuan Bingzhou Army who had just lost Bingzhou Obviously, Lu Bu didn't think much about it at the beginning, but he didn't expect that after a short period of time, he would actually become a king and a priest.

"Mr. Gongtai, do you know the King of Bohai?" Lu Bu asked back.

Chen Gong shook his head and said: "However, I heard that he recruits talents, and there are many capable officials under his command, such as Xun Yu Xun Wenruo of the Xun family in Yingchuan, Xun Chen Xun Youruo, Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao, and Dong Zhao and Dong Gongren from Yanzhou. , and Chen Liugao's Gao Shun and Gao Xiaofu are all famous people."

Listening to the list of names listed by Chen Gong, Lu Bu was not familiar with them, or even unheard of, but they were able to be remembered by Chen Gong, naturally they had some skills, and they were able to serve as the King of Bohai, which is still more extraordinary up.

Just as Chen Gong and Lu Bu were planning the next step, Jiang Qi's remnants were defeated and returned to the white horse.

When Yuan Shao heard the news, his face suddenly became gloomy.

"Xu Rong, the thief, has been tricked again!" Yuan Shao said angrily.

Feng Ji on the side remained silent, he always advocated Mo Yan's pursuit, but Yuan Shao adopted Guo Tu's strategy, and he knew Yuan Shao's consideration, so he chose to remain silent.

After Guo Tu heard the disastrous ending, he still stepped forward and asked the two of them, "Where are the two generals, Yan Liang, Wen Chou?"

Jiang Qi said: "The two armies searched westward, but have not returned yet."

"That is to say, you divided up your troops and pursued them?"

Jiang Qi nodded honestly, but he didn't know that a disaster was waiting for him.

Guo Tu returned to Yuan Shao's side and said, "My lord, it's not that my lord's pursuit was wrong, it's just that the battle was unfavorable! My subordinates knew that Xu Rong was good at fighting, so they sent four generals to pursue him. Unexpectedly, they made up their own minds and divided up their troops to pursue him. It’s a big deal for the bad lord!”

When Jiang Qi heard this, he immediately argued: "My lord, there are traces of the army passing through the fork in the road, so I divided up the troops to chase after it!"

Guo Tu said again: "Xu Rong fled in panic. He didn't bring his luggage. How could he travel far? Naturally, he went south and went to Fan Chou. It's such a simple truth. As a general, how can you not tell the difference!"

Chunyu Qiong, who had been keeping her head down, suddenly looked up at Guo Tu.

You should have known why you didn't just order Nanchai!

Yuan Shao frowned and stared, followed by Guo Tu's words: "This defeat is clearly the result of you underestimating the enemy and dividing up your troops. If Yan Liang, Wen Chou were with you, how could you suffer such a disastrous defeat! Dismiss the two of them from the military and demote them to soldiers, take them away!"

When Feng Ji heard this, he just wanted to speak up for Jiang Qi, but he glanced at Guo Tu again, and closed his mouth helplessly.

This punishment is really too heavy. On the other hand, the heavier the punishment, the more it seems that Yuan Shao actually knows that this is his own problem. Feng Ji shook his head helplessly and began to think about the follow-up.

After Xu Rong defeated Chunyu Qiong and joined forces with Fan Chou, the situation on Ding Yuan's side was already in jeopardy. If something happened to Ding Yuan, what's the use of occupying the white horse?
After thinking about it, Feng Ji still spoke: "Master, Jiang Qi failed, Xu Rong joined forces with Fan Chou, if he takes advantage of the situation and defeats Ding Yuan prefect, the consequences will be unpredictable, my lord, please prepare early."

Feng Ji thought about it, but he still kept his hand, and didn't directly say the strategy. If Yuan Shao changed it and sent it out, and he was defeated again, then he couldn't bear the crime.

He knew that if he lost again next time, Yuan Shao would definitely lose Dongjun in a short time, and he couldn't bear the consequences.

After Yuan Shao heard Feng Ji's words, he seemed to recall what the staff member said earlier. He thought that Xu Rong was retreating on his own initiative, so he must be the second player and should not pursue him.

The result really came true!
So Yuan Shao changed his expression, and said to Feng Jidu, "Does Yuan Tu have a strategy?"

Feng Ji thought for a while and said, "We should send troops to support Ding Yuan."

As for who to send, Feng Ji said he didn't know.

"Call Yan Liangwen Chou back to the white horse!" Yuan Shao ordered.

Feng Ji thought: It seems that these two favorite generals are here again. In this way, the risk of offering advice is not small, because Yuan Shao really likes them.

……

The trek all the way was full of hardships, Liu Qing returned to Wei County as quickly as possible, the army stayed outside the city, Liu Qing and the others quietly returned to the city.

"Mistress, mistress, the lord is back!" the officials in the mansion rushed to tell each other.

Liu Qing, who quietly returned to the city, bumped into Cai Yan when he returned home.

Liu Qing smiled, took Qian Ying with one hand, and Cai Yan with the other, and walked towards the mansion.

"My husband is going to Bingzhou, it's been another month." Cai Yan said.

"Bingzhou is far away, and this king is helpless. I still like the weather in Yecheng, especially at this time."

At this time, September is already early autumn, and it is cool in the morning and evening, which is very comfortable.

As he walked, Cai Yan realized that this was the way to the dormitory.

"Husband, won't you go to the study?"

"Tired, just want to sleep."

"But today, several urgent reports from Yanzhou have been sent. I was about to send someone to deliver it to my husband, but I didn't expect my husband to come back suddenly." Cai Yan said.

Several urgent reports?Could it be that Yuan Shao and Xu Rong have already launched a decisive battle?
"Then let's go to the study first! Qian Ying, the pommel horse is tired, you should go and rest first!"

Qianying resigned, Liu Qing and Cai Yan made a detour to the study, and left for a while, but the study has not changed at all, it is still tidy and clean, the desk is spotless, there are a few scattered letters on it, and the air is filled with a touch of fragrance, refreshing .

If the study in Jinyang State Mufu was so comfortable, Liu Qing would not be tired from reading paperwork all day long.

Liu Qing sat down, while Cai Yan knelt beside him dignifiedly, took a letter and handed it to Liu Qing.

"This is the military report after Yuan Shao took over the white horse. I believe my husband has already known about this battle."

Liu Qing nodded. Speaking of it, it was quite surprising at first glance. Xu Rong defended the city for less than a day. It is not Xu Rong's fighting style at all!

"It is added in this letter that Xu Rong retreated on his own initiative, not because he was defeated by Yuan Shao. Moreover, two days later, Yuan Jun's pursuit troops Jiang Qi and Chun Yuqiong's troops were jointly intercepted and killed by Xu Rong and Fan Chou. The two generals have now been killed. Dismissed."

"So serious?" Liu Qing complained, but thinking of Yuan Shao's label of being mean, ungrateful and narrow-minded, he can understand it.

Cai Yan took out another letter, with a pair of white catkins deftly unfolding it slowly, and handed it to Liu Qing, who had prepared it according to the time.

Not only that, Cai Yan said at the same time: "After Xu Rong defeated Jiang Qi and Chun Yuqiong, he suddenly launched an attack and joined forces with Fan Chou to repel Ding Yuan. Yuan Shao sent Yan Liangwen Chou to rescue him, and now Ding Yuan has retreated to Jiyin."

Xu Rong's use of troops was really treacherous, and he took the initiative to withdraw from the white horse, probably in order to paralyze Yuan Shao and restrain Yuan Shao's main force, and it was expected that Yuan Shao would send troops to pursue him. With Ding Yuan defeated, the entire Yanzhou battlefield is Xu Rong's solo show!
Even Liu Qing felt his scalp tingle when he resumed the game, let alone Yuan Shao and Ding Yuan who were directly facing Xu Rong.

Some military generals are disciplined and powerful, like Zhang Liao. Some generals have rich experience and a strong view of the overall situation. Although they will suffer losses, they can always win battles, similar to Huangfu Song. Xu Rong is not a brave fighter, nor is he mature. As a seasoned veteran, I feel that what he relies on in his battles is not the preset resourcefulness, but more his intuition.

The intuition of fighting, when to advance and when to retreat, is as pleasing to the eye as art, and has a military style.

"Xu Rong, you should not be your enemy, you should try your best to win him over!" Liu Qing sighed.

Cai Yan then opened another one.

"Xu Rong has occupied Lihu County and completely cut off Yuan Jun's supply line in Dongjun."

Damn, it's numb!Liu Qing sighed again.

Saying that, he dug out a map of Yanzhou and found the location of Lihu County. Now Lihu is occupied by Ding Yuan, and Yuan Shao is already a trapped beast in Dongjun. If he supplies supplies from Juancheng, he needs to go through Puyang.

Yuan Shao cheated Lu Bu before, so Lu Bu would not be kind enough to give Yuan Shao supplies.

"Unexpectedly, the day I come back will be the end of the Battle of Yanzhou."

"Husband, the white horse is still in Yuan Shao's hands, Puyang is occupied by Lu Bu, and the counties to the east are even more complicated. How can you say that the battle of Yanzhou has come to an end?" Cai Yan asked curiously.

Liu Qing smiled, and replied: "The protagonists have finished singing, and the audience leaves! On the Yanzhou stage, only Yuan Shao and Xu Rong are the protagonists, and the rest are just spectators, including us."

"Then how will the battle of Yanzhou end?"

"Yuan Shao fled again. Xu Rong took control of the western part of Dongjun, including Puyang, and became a veritable governor of Dongjun. The counties in the eastern part of Dongjun will be controlled by Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and Chenliu County..."

Liu Qing paused, then suddenly took Cai Yan's slender hand and squeezed it lightly, "Chen Liu will be mine! Because——"

"Yu County, in Chenliu, I will never allow it to fall into the flames of war!"

As soon as Cai Yan heard it, his nose felt sour, and he seemed to have a thousand words to say, but he didn't know what words and sentences to express, so he plunged into Liu Qing's arms.

Her shoulders twitched twice, and she began to sob.

Are you so moved?

Tears directly?

"Why is this madam?"

Cai Yan raised his head and looked at Liu Qing with an expression, with tears in his eyes, his big eyes were crystal clear and beautiful.

"Husband is so kind, Zhao Ji doesn't know how to repay her!"

"Whether you are kind or not, whether you repay it or not, your home is my home, and your hometown is my hometown!"

Now Xu Rong has the upper hand, and the battle in Yanzhou is about to end. Although Zhang Miao has not replied, does he have a choice?

He didn't!
Even if he had it, Liu Qing would say he didn't!
Liu Qing wiped away the sparkle in Cai Yan's eyes with a flick of his sleeve, and seeing her smile so sweetly, Liu Qing felt it was worth it at this moment, and the dignity of a man in his heart was greatly satisfied.

A man, apart from conquering the world and being admired by the world, is also conquering women and gaining their favor.

"I have an old relationship with Chen Liu, the prefect. Chen Liu stands between Sili and Dongjun. When Xu Rong gains a firm foothold, the next step is to capture Chen Liu. At that time, I will come forward and talk to him. "

This he refers to both Zhang Miao and Xu Rong.

Cai Yan nodded, still nestled in Liu Qing's arms and didn't want to leave, so he stretched out his hand and waved the last letter.

"Husband, do you want to guess what is said in this letter?"

Liu Qing thought about it for a while, and found it difficult to guess, Xu Rong had already occupied Lihu, if it wasn't for the fact that he was alone and the supply line was in danger, I really doubt that he would capture Ding Yuan and take down the entire Jiyin County.

Liu Qing substituted himself into Xu Rong, and found that the next step was Chen Liu; and substituted himself into Yuan Shao, the supply of the tens of thousands of troops became a problem, and the supply from Juancheng had to go through Puyang, so Yuan Shao's next step, It must be to open up the Puyang channel.

Can't beat Xu Rong, can't tens of thousands of troops can't beat Lu Bu with thousands of soldiers!

"I guess Yuan Shao attacked Lu Bu!" Liu Qing guessed.

Cai Yan smiled leisurely, a hint of cunning flashed in her dark eyes.

Seeing this, Liu Qing knew that he had guessed wrong.

It's not Lu Buna, so what happened to Liu Bei and Cao Cao?

Zhu Ling is still stationed in Jibei country, the Yellow Turban should not dare to make a comeback.

Besides that, is there anything else?

Liu Qing looked at the map, and finally his eyes fell on Taishan County, which he didn't expect, and then moved down by a strange coincidence.

"Zhao Ji, don't tell me that Tao Qian has attacked Taishan County."

Cai Yan opened his small mouth slightly, and the smirk in his eyes suddenly turned into surprise.

Seeing Cai Yan with such rich micro expressions, Liu Qing knew that he might be mistaken.

"Husband, did you receive the letter yourself?" Cai Yan asked suspiciously.

"Of course not, this is my guess!" Liu Qing said seriously.

"Can this be deduced?" Cai Yan obviously didn't believe it.

Yanzhou is not big, and the only counties that have problems today are Dongjun, Jibei and Taishan County. Since it is not Lu Bu in Dongjun who has problems, then only Taishan County is the only one that can covet Taishan County. Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou who had accumulated a lot of troops.

Hearing Liu Qing's analysis, Cai Yan had no choice but to believe it, looking at Liu Qing's eyes were full of little stars, like a star chasing little girl.

She handed the letter to Liu Qing, and said with a smile: "What my husband said is exactly right. This is Meng De's urgent report. In the name of Ping Huangjin, Xuzhou Inspector Tao Qian led an army into Taishan County and occupied all the counties and cities along the way. , now, I am afraid that it has occupied half of Taishan County."

Tao Qian came out. This is a kind of power in the late Han Dynasty other than the clan, gentry, and powerful. They are usually the head of a state, and there are some local forces behind them. They become their spokesperson. Tao Qian is a typical example. One of them, almost the same, and the future Gongsun Zan.

When the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans invaded Yanzhou, Tao Qian stood still.

When the Yellow Turban Army was repelled by Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Zhu Ling, Tao Qian stood still.

When Yuan Shao's Yanzhou battle fell into a passive situation, he suddenly became violent and marched into Taishan County in a large scale, which shows that there is still a small relationship between him and the Yuan family.

Although Tao Qian used the name of Ping Huangjin, the last piece of the fig leaf has not been torn off, but he brazenly sent troops to other states without the imperial edict, which is already a good example of the problem.

The Han court was divided into two divisions, which weakened the authority of the Han court and the prestige of the emperor.

To what extent has it been weakened?

Just look at the actions of those ministers and you will know.

After Cai Yan finished speaking, he looked at Liu Qing to see what kind of reaction he would have. Even Cai Yan understood that Tao Qian's move could no longer be described as beyond. Not all problems can be described as "flat yellow scarf." "To prevaricate.

Even Cai Yan understands the truth, how can those strategists not know.

It can be said that Liu Qing didn't have any violent reaction, he just smiled: "There are no heroes in the time, so ghosts and snakes jumped out!"
