Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 294: Like a broken bamboo

After Liu Ye broke the Tongguan Pass, Guanzhong was as infallible. Except for the Qiang people in the west, which needed to be guarded, there was basically no need to deploy heavy troops everywhere in Guanzhong.

Therefore, Liu Ye immediately gave an order, ordering all the troops in Guanzhong to assemble quickly to him.

In the end, soldiers and horses from the counties of Yongliang and Liangzhou were transferred. After a total of 20,000 people gathered in Chang'an, Liu Ye's number one general commander personally led him, and then marched with the 20,000 troops on Starry Night, and finally arrived at Tongguan before May.

"Wenze, you finally came!"

After Zhang Jai saw Yu Jin, he immediately greeted Yu Jin with a smile on his face, and then a bear hug almost hugged Yu Jin out of breath.

Yu Jin smiled and said, "Junyi, this time you made a lot of credit, right?"

Zhang Jai shook his head: "My contribution is not a big deal. It is our young hero who can break through Tongguan this time."

After that, Zhang Jai turned around and said, "Meng Qi, come here, you kid."

Ma Chao heard the call and turned and walked over.

In the Han dynasty, 20-year-old adults were crowned, so a man would not have a cousin until he was twenty. Ma Chao was only seventeen years old. However, because of his bravery, Ma Teng took the cousin for him in advance.

When Yu Jin saw Ma Chao, who was an expert, he immediately smiled and said: "Meng Qi led three thousand cavalrymen to cross the Weishui River secretly, and a certain had heard the news of a forcible attack on Tongguan. Follow the general Zhengxi well, and you will not be a problem in the future. "

Yu Jin can be regarded as a veteran in Liu Ye's army. Hearing Yu Jin praised himself so much, Ma Chao, who is naturally proud, was also quite pleased: "Ma has long heard of being a general."

"Haha, what are you talking about here? A also wants to hear."

Everyone turned around and looked around, only to see Liu Ye smiling, with Guan Hai and Xun You on the right side.

When everyone saw Liu Ye coming, they immediately said with a serious face: "Well, see General Zhengxi!"

Liu Ye waved his hand: "No gift, everyone, please sit down."

After the generals sat down, Liu Ye immediately said to Xun You: "Gongda, you can tell everyone about Dong Jun's situation."

"Here." Xun You was appointed by Liu Ye as a general in the military division, responsible for counseling military aircraft.

Xun You took a step, bowed to the left and right, and then said loudly.

"According to the line report, Dong Zhuojun and Xu Rong had already given up Nanyang to return to Wuguan before he left for half a month. Xu Rong defeated Yuan Shu and Sun Jian's 60,000 army. The 30,000 Liangzhou soldiers were all powerful soldiers, but our army's strong enemy."

"The direction of Hangu Pass is currently defending by Fan Chou, one of the generals of Dong Jun. However, Fan Chou has no intention of fighting and will probably defend Hangu Pass. Therefore, the opponent of our army is only Xu Rong's side. If we can defeat Xu Rong, The prestige of the army will surely shake Luoyang, and Hangu Pass can go down without a fight."

Hearing this, the generals also understood that the current key is to defeat Xu Rong, as long as Xu Rong can be defeated, all problems will be solved.

But Xu Rong's 30,000 people are hard to bite.

Ma Chao's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and clasped his fist, saying: "Please be with me, 10,000 troops. Certainly, the lord will capture Xu Rong and give it to your seat!"

Liu Ye smiled: "Meng Qi has this momentum very well, but Xu Rong used his troops cleanly. Yuan Shu and Sun Jian's 60,000 troops were defeated. Our army needs to think about it long-term."

Zhang Jai has always disapproved of passive defense, so he said: "Instead of waiting for Xu Rongbing to approach the city, it is better for our army to take the initiative and seek opportunities to intercept Xu Rong's food passage."

Xun You said to Zhang Jai: "Xu Rong is very strict in protecting the grain road. If our army rushes out, I am afraid that it will not eat the rice by stealing chickens."

Yu Jin frowned and said, "Then our army set up ambush halfway, how about sniping the enemy?"

Jia Xu, who was taciturn, suddenly laughed: "General Wen Ze, Xu Rong himself is an ambush master. He set up ambushes to break Yuan Shu, and he saw through Sun Jian's plan to set up ambushes. If you want to set up ambushes to calculate Xu Rong, I am afraid it will be difficult. Make it harder."

For a while, the generals in the army fell into silence.

Guan Hai angrily said: "Fuck, can Xu Rong be so powerful, can he be more than one million Yellow Turbans and one hundred thousand Qiang soldiers? We have General Zhengxi, and General Wen Ze, General Junyi. , General Meng Qi and I, as well as Mr. Wenhe and Gongda, are not comparable to Xu Rong?"

Liu Ye couldn't help laughing when he heard Guan Hai's words, but he still decided.

"Passive defense is not acceptable. If you wait until Xu Rong attacks Tongguan, our army will have no other choice but to guard against death. This is tantamount to self-cutting and retreating."

"The generals take orders!"

"The end will be!"

"Yu Jin leads the army with ten thousand, and only takes Hongnong."

"Here!"

"Zhangjai leads five thousand and kills Benhu County."

"Here!"

"Ma Chao led five thousand cavalry, and won Mianchi in three days."

"Here!"

Liu Ye solemnly said: "No matter which road Xu Rong attacked, the generals were not allowed to go out of the city to fight without authorization. They would defend the city and ask for help from the troops. They should not advance lightly. The general commanded it, understand?"

Seeing the generals nodded, Liu Ye immediately ordered them to prepare.

On the side, Jia Xu suddenly said, "General, there is one more thing."

Liu Ye nodded: "Wenhe said that."

"The main force of our army was assembled in Tongguan. It is of no avail for Captain Pound to play the banner of general in Hexi County. Since the enemy knows that our main force is not in Hexi, Dong Zhuo must order Duan Yan to clean up and attack Pound."

Hearing what Jia Xu said, Liu Ye suddenly realized: "Wenhe, you immediately write a letter to Lingming, asking him to send the man's husband back, don't fight Duan Yan with all his strength, just harass the iron cavalry."

Jia Xu nodded.

And under Liu Ye's order, more than 20,000 Liangzhou troops flew out of Tongguan with great fanfare and stirred up the Si Li area.

On the second day of May, Zhang Jai led the army to conquer Lake County.

On the fourth day of the fourth day, Yujin led a 10,000-strong attack on Hongnong, and Hu Zhen, the guard, fled in a hurry, killing more than two thousand people.

On the fifth day, Ma Chao led five thousand cavalry troops to conquer Mianchi.

At the same time, Liu Ye used Xunyou to draft a "Report to Wanmin", refuting Dong Zhuo's brutal actions with stern brushwork, and at the same time told the people in Sili that the General Zhengxi was the king's master, and wherever he went, he was very close to the people. No crime, the people should not panic.

Dong Zhuo himself was brutal and inhumane. Naturally, Dong Jun’s quality was conceivable. Dong Jun even sent troops suddenly when the people rallied and massacred thousands of people. The man cut off his head and said it was the return of the bandit, while the woman was. Directly act as a prostitute.

The quality of the Liangzhou army can’t be said to be so good, but it’s not afraid of comparing people to others, but just shopping around. After experiencing Dong Zhuojun, the people in Sili suddenly met Liangzhou soldiers who didn’t burn, kill, or looting. This is moved.

Many people even took the initiative to reward Liangzhou soldiers, which can be said to be "eating pots of milk to welcome the king."
