Great Wei Nengchen

"A group of lazy people who don't smoke, it takes so much effort to chop wood, and I have to go and urge it!" After understanding, Qu Chang walked towards the depths of the forest cursing, and never returned.

The same thing happened all over the camp. The soldiers kept sneaking away in the name of cutting wood, fetching water, and patrolling. The generals sent people to chase them, but the pursuers didn't come back. At least a few thousand people escaped overnight. People, including some middle and senior officials!

…………

Late at night - the big tent of the Chinese army is brightly lit and the atmosphere is depressing!

"Ah... ah!"

Cao Xiong went back and forth dozens of times, he kept sighing and sighing, and his brows became pimples. He used to want to be an emperor all day long, but now he finally got his wish, but he hopes to be a prince again.

Could it be that the emperor's brother said on his deathbed that this throne is not easy to sit on, he didn't care about it at the time, but now he finally understands, but it's too late!

You know, it is difficult to sit on the throne, and it is even more difficult to step down. Looking at the monarchs who lost the throne in history, did they end well?

Hua Xin, Wang Lang, and Sima Yi stood beside each other with sad faces, which is not surprising. The whole family was beheaded, and they themselves were in danger. It would be strange if they could smile on their faces. Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world, otherwise, you will have to buy it if you lose everything One!

Cao Zhen was also in the big tent. After the defeat of the hussar general, he was worried that he would be punished when he returned to the court, so he packed up some defeated soldiers and defected to Cao Xiong's command, hoping to achieve a political turnaround!

But judging from the current situation, I made the wrong choice nine times out of ten. Not only can I not turn salty fish over, I am afraid I will be smashed to pieces, or Jia Kui is smarter, and he directly brought his people to Luoyang, without losing his official position and title. , and was rewarded!

"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. Although the capture of Luoyang has not been achieved, the 20 army is still there. As long as we cross the Yellow River and occupy Yecheng, we will have a foothold!

Then he called on the soldiers of Hebei to take advantage of the natural dangers of the Yellow River and go south to fight for the world. If they succeed, they will sweep the Central Plains, and if they retreat, they will be the overlord of one side. "

While speaking, Sima Yi took out a letter of allegiance, which was full of names and bloody fingerprints on it!

Recently, a large number of soldiers in the army have fled. It is said that there are 20 troops, but in fact there are not even [-]% of them.

In desperation, Sima Yi came up with a bad move, wrote a letter of loyalty, and forced officials and generals to sign and pledge on it, so that everyone would be grasshoppers on the same rope, and no one could escape being involved in the rebellion. The only way to survive is to go to the dark!

"Zhongda did a good job. He told all the soldiers in the army that as long as they cross the river and reach Yecheng, I will open the treasury and reward the big guys with gold, silver, jewels, beautiful lambs, whatever they want!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

After reading the letter of loyalty, Cao Xiong nodded slightly, but the gloom in his brows did not dissipate. Crossing the Yellow River is easy to say, but it is really difficult to do!

Luoyang has established a new king, and will definitely send troops to the east. With the current situation of his own side, there is no chance of winning against the battlefield. If Xiao Yi leads the army in person, it will undoubtedly lose.

Therefore, the top priority is to cross the Yellow River as soon as possible, and it will be safer in Hebei. Even if the Jizhou officials refuse to surrender, I can still go to Qingzhou to settle down and replenish some soldiers, food and grass, which is my fiefdom!

As for the matter of fighting for the world, Cao Xiong has no confidence. He only thinks that if there is no way out, he will take his wives, concubines, children, and confidantes to escape to the sea in a huge boat, and then occupy several islands, and become an overseas emperor. I heard my brother-in-law said when I was a child that there are Ryukyu and Fusang islands in the East China Sea, with an area the size of two or three states!

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a sudden commotion outside the big tent, with the faint sound of Jin Ge...

"Why the noise?"

"Report to Your Majesty: Xu Huang and Yu Jin led the troops from the headquarters, left the camp, and fled westward!"

"Damn it, send someone to chase them... Well, everyone has his own ambitions, let's forget it!"

Knowing that the two generals led their troops away, Cao Xiong couldn't help sighing. It seems that the letter of allegiance doesn't help much. Those who want to leave will still go, and it's not suitable to stay here for a long time. It's better to go 36 times!

"According to my decree, all troops discard useless things, set up their camps overnight, and head straight to the Yellow River Ferry. Anyone who moves slowly, beheaded!"

"According to the order!"

Chapter 1705 Yanggu Ferry!

Yanzhou-Jibei County-Yanggu County!

The torrential Yellow River stretches for thousands of miles. It presents a shape of "Ji" on the land of China, and finally pours into the sea eastward. It flows through the section of Yanggu County. The flow speed slows down, the river surface is wide, and the terrain on both sides is relatively flat!

Therefore, business travelers from south to north often cross the river from here. Over time, a large wharf has been formed, and countless boats ferry back and forth every day, which plays an important role in communicating the two sides of the river.

It's just that wars have resurfaced recently, and all states, counties, and counties in the eastern part of the Great Wei Dynasty have been under martial law. There are no traces of business travelers, and the Yanggu Ferry has also become deserted. Not a single ferryboat or a single person can be seen!

"rumble!"

At dawn, with the sound of rushing horseshoes, a black armored cavalry rushed to the bank of the river. There were about [-] to [-] people. People shouted, flags fluttered, and quickly occupied the ferry. The leader was Xiao Yat himself!

It turned out that after starting from Luoyang, the Xuanjia Army was divided into two teams. Huang Zhong, Huang Xu and his son led 7 horses, and swept eastward to the Yingchuan and Runan counties, and recruited the defeated rebel soldiers along the way to avoid harassment by these people. The common people, and then go north to pursue the main force of the rebels!

Xiao Yi personally led 3 horses, and marched day and night to Yanggu Ferry, preparing to intercept the rebels here and prevent them from crossing the Yellow River, lest the war spread to the four prefectures of Hebei!

"Report to Grand Master, our army has occupied the ferry, and there is no trace of the rebels yet!"

"Okay, the whole army will get off their horses and repair, and bury the pot to make food!"

"promise!"

Luoyang is more than [-] miles away from Yanggu Ferry, and the Xuanjia Army has galloped for three days and three nights, and the men and horses are quite exhausted. Xiao Yi ordered to repair on the bank of the Yellow River, so that the soldiers can recover their physical strength as soon as possible, so that they can face the battle ahead !

The water of the Yellow River was too muddy to drink directly, so the soldiers dug large pits on the bank, filtered the water with sand, cooked food, fed the war horses, and cleaned the dust by the way!

After eating and drinking enough, the soldiers sat on the bank to rest, and the horses spread out, either gnawing on the green grass, or rolling on the sand, enjoying this rare leisure time!

"The Yellow River, the mother river of the Chinese nation, nourished the land on both sides of the river, nourished tens of millions of people, and gave birth to countless heroes!

But why are there constant battles on this land, why are the people here so many disasters, and the historical vicious circle that is overthrown and rebuilt every few hundred years, is it really impossible to break it, no, I just want to build a thousand-year The empire, eternal prosperity! "

……

Sitting cross-legged on a soil slope, Xiao Yi looked at the endlessly flowing Yellow River, and at the same time he was filled with emotions, and at the same time fell into the memories of the past!

20 years ago, during the Battle of Guandu, Cao and Yuan fought against each other on the bank of the Yellow River with nearly a million troops. The sky was dark, the sun and the moon were dark, and the blood stained the river red, which lasted for dozens of days without disappearing!

At that time, I was only in my twenties, riding a Moyan horse, holding a gold-plated boring machine, fighting ten battles on the battlefield, sending countless warriors to the west, and making their heads into "skull cups" to celebrate their achievements How high-spirited it is to sing wine and sing at the banquet!

Twenty years have passed in a blink of an eye, Cao Cao, Guo Jia, Xun You, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Yuan Shao, Tian Feng, Ju Shou... Countless friends and enemies have all returned to the loess.

"Father, please drink water!"

"it is good!"

Walking up the slope, Xiao Feng was already a 15-year-old boy, over seven feet tall, with perfect body proportions, wearing a tiger-head chain armor and holding a gentian silver gun, he looked heroic!

Seeing his son's handsome appearance, Xiao Yi couldn't help but think of his youth, when he was practicing literature and martial arts on Crouching Tiger Mountain, he was also so heroic and energetic, but his appearance was a little bit worse, he was a little black face!

Alas, when people get old, they like to recall the past, and I can't avoid it!

"Feng'er, what's on your mind?"

"The son is unclear about something, and wants to ask his father for advice!"

"Hehe, you want to ask Weifu, why did you set up an ambush at Yanggu Ferry? You still have to find the answer yourself. First draw a map along the Yellow River, then analyze the enemy's situation, and let Weifu see how capable you are." !"

For this expedition, Xiao Yi deliberately brought Xiao Feng by his side, and asked him to go to the battlefield to hone his skills. This son is good at martial arts by nature and smart in mind, he is a good material for leading the army in battle!
