MTL - Three Kingdoms-Chapter 2740 Uneasy
Chapter 2740 Uneasy
Most of the guardian Lu Bu was aggressive.
So easy to find.
Going in the direction with the most smoke and dust is basically right.
Gao Shun brought 300 people with him when he went to battle, but when he came back, there were less than 200 people.
The damage of rushing into the formation is ten times, or even dozens of times, that of defense.
But if Gao Shun is asked to choose again, Gao Shun will still choose to rush.
There may be too many whys in life, but sometimes you may not know why every time you do something.
『General Gao is back! 』
The soldiers cheered.
But after hearing the news just now, Lu Bu, who came out of the big tent excitedly, saw this situation, and suddenly his face sank again, so he didn't continue to move forward, but turned back to the big tent.
『Meet the lord. 』
Gao Shun entered the big tent, bowed his head and bowed.
Lu Bu was silent for a while, and without calling Gao Shun to get up, he asked directly: "Why did you lead the front army and lose?" ! 』
『Shun is speechless. Gao Shun still lowered his head, "Please punish me, my lord." 』
Lu Bu stared at Gao Shun, then waved his hands, "Get up, sit down first." 』
After Gao Shun sat down, Lu Bu inquired about Gao Shun's previous arrangements.
Gao Shun also said everything, without any exaggeration or cover-up.
Lu Bu asked some detailed questions again, and then fell silent.
Gao Shun and Wei Xu didn't deal with each other very much, this was something Lu Bu knew, so when there was a conflict when leading the army, in fact, Lu Bu also had the same expectation in his heart, but Lu Bu wanted to know whether Gao Shun deliberately killed Chang Cheng, Or maybe there is something wrong with Gao Shun himself, but judging from Gao Shun's performance and answers now, Lu Bu can't see anything unusual about Gao Shun, and he doesn't think there is anything wrong with Gao Shun...
At most, Gao Shun didn't protect Chang Cheng, but if Lu Bu was between Gao Shun and Chang Cheng, and only one of them could survive, then Lu Bu would naturally choose Gao Shun.
Although sometimes Gao Shun's speech is not pleasant, and sometimes Gao Shun makes himself very angry, but Gao Shun is more important than Chang Cheng.
『This matter should be discussed after the war! ’Lu Bu waved his hand, indicating that he would not press the button for the time being, and then asked Gao Shun in detail about the pursuit of the horse thief and the defeat of Ma Xiu and others. Hearing the excitement, he waved his arms and laughed, “Yes what! Hahaha, Boping played awe-inspiring! good very good! 』
When Gao Shun said that he fought Pound in the end and then released Pound, Lu Bu was not only not angry, but also expressed his approval, "This is a warrior!" Burpin did it right! 』
Lu Bu actually kept his hands back at that time, otherwise, with Lu Bu's archery skills, it might not be too difficult to harvest a fleeing enemy general. He kept his hand, so he naturally felt that there was no problem with Gao Shun keeping his hand.
In the Romance, Guan Yu's behavior of releasing water is the most serious, but he will not release Cao Cao, and later generations will curse Guan Yu as a collaborator.
『What a pity, what a pity! ’ Lu Bu sighed, ‘Such a hero, he turned himself into a thief! 』
『There must be some difficulties…』Gao Shun replied.
『By the way, are you still injured? What's the matter? Has any military doctor seen it? 』It seemed that Lu Bu had just seen Gao Shun's wound.
Gao Shun said that the doctor has re-bandaged him, and the problem is not very big.
『Hmm…』 Lu Bu nodded, and then thought of something again, 『Boping, you said that you encountered some Guishuang soldiers when you were fetching water? 』
Gao Shun nodded, and then asked someone to bring the confiscated Guishan armor.
"Hmph, haha, I recognize this, that's right, the words on it are Guishuang characters... plus it's Semuren, haha..." Lu Bu smiled, weighing the pointed helmet up and down in his hand, "Interesting, It’s really interesting... Let me just say, if it’s just a horse thief, how can it do so many things... Guishuang, very good, very good...』
Gao Shun said: "However, when I attacked the horse thief camp, I didn't see these Guishuang people. 』
『Chick! Lu Bu laughed disdainfully, "These rats must have got the news of my dispatch of troops and hid...but what's the use of hiding?" This time, I'm going to overturn all the rat holes in one go. Let's see where these rats can hide? ! 』
Lu Bu spoke murderously, but Gao Shun was taken aback.
『My lord, since the horse thief has already been defeated...』 Gao Shun said, 『Why do you want to make a big effort? 』
Lu Bu waved his hand, "Boping, you don't understand this. The appearance of horse thieves should be eradicated, otherwise the next year will be resurrected!" Since it is the Guishuang people who play tricks, the Guishuang people must pay the price! 』
Gao Shun was silent for a while, "Does my lord have any goals?" 』
This so-called "price", could it be that Lu Bu wanted to fight Guishuang?
Lu Bu glanced at Gao Shun, and said, "At least Guishan must be conquered, with two divisions and two cities!" 』
『…』 Gao Shun was even more silent.
Guishan, Ershi.
Although there are four light words and two place names, what they represent is not that simple.
Others don't know where Guishan and Ershi Ercheng are, but Gao Shun knows.
Guishan is the capital of Dawan, and Ershi is the place where Dawan is rich in hard-earned horses. They are the two most prosperous cities in Dawan. To Dawan, their status is like Chang'an and Luoyang of the Han Dynasty. Same.
Lu Bu said in high spirits: "Last time we only attacked Chigu City, obviously they haven't learned the lesson they should have... This time, we will not only attack Chigu City, but also continue westward, along Shule, and go straight to Guishan Mountain." Master II! 』
Speaking of the origin, Lu Bu even sang loudly: "The heavenly horse comes from the West Pole, and after traveling thousands of miles, it returns to Youde!" That's right! I specifically asked someone to ask these questions! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! 』
That's right, Guishan and Ershi are both to the west of Chigu City, not only to the west, but Dawan, which needs to pass through the Tianshan Mountains, has also been conquered by a big man. The song sung by Lu Bu is exactly It is a poem written by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty after conquering Dawan in the Western Regions.
Many people think that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in history did not hesitate to expend national power to attack Dawan for the sake of **** horses.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent troops more to maintain the "Wei De" of the great Han in the Western Regions. After Zhang Qian returned from his first mission to the Western Regions, in his report to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he proposed to establish "wealth" in the Western Regions to rule, and Emperor Wu readily agreed. Emperor Wu of the Han worked hard to manage the Western Regions, and it was not easy to establish "wealth and virtue". Therefore, when Dawan in the Western Regions challenged Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's "wealth and virtue", Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would definitely not tolerate it no matter what. Therefore, when Che Ling and others were killed and the gifts they brought were robbed, it was imperative for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to order Li Guangli's army to attack Wan in order to consolidate the "mighty virtue" of the Western Han Dynasty in the Western Regions.
However, with the great talents of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Chengdu, which controls the country, and the logistical support of the entire Han Dynasty, attacking Dawan is not an easy task...
Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty fought Dawan twice, failed the first time, and succeeded the second time.
It was the first time that the enemy was underestimated. At that time, Yao Dinghan and others who had been sent to Dawan Kingdom suggested to Emperor Wu, "Wan's soldiers are weak. Sincerely, the Han soldiers are no more than 3,000 people. If you shoot them with a strong crossbow, you will destroy Wan." ’ So when the Han army went out for the first time, there were only tens of thousands of troops, and they were dominated by "evil young men". The army had to be withdrawn, and when they finally returned to the big Han, the remaining soldiers were no more than the "twelve" at the time of departure.
Because of the first failure, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was furious. After a fierce debate, there was a second battle of Dawan.
Having learned the lessons from the first time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty expanded his army to more than 60,000 people during his second expedition, supplemented the military academies at the grassroots level, and added various craftsmen at the same time. The feat, the number of soldiers, and the abundance of supplies were unprecedented. The total number of the entire expedition exceeded 100,000, which shocked the countries of the Western Regions.
In the second battle of attacking Dawan, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did win in the end. He broke through Loulan, slaughtered Luntou, and defeated Yu Chengcheng, which he failed to conquer last time, until he besieged Guishan City, the capital of Dawan.
"Shun once heard that the city of Guishan is the capital of Dawan, with high walls inside and outside..." Gao Shun recounted what he knew about the situation in Dawan, emphasizing, "Even if I waited thousands of miles to raid and arrive at Guishan I'm afraid...in the past, the army besieged Guishan for 40 days without going down, but now the Lord has troops...Please think carefully, Lord...』
In fact, Gao Shun really wanted to explain clearly what happened before and after the conquest of Dawan, and he also wanted to talk to Lu Bu about the various negative effects of the Dawan War on the Han at that time, the soldiers, horses, etc. serious loss.
These losses are not something Lu Bu can resist...
Just counting the second expedition against Wanwan, the number of villainous youths and side riders who set off exceeded "60,000", and "not with those with selfish followers", that is, "selfless followers" were not counted in the 60,000 people Within the same period, "Seven Branches of the World" were dispatched to deliver military rations and other supplies. The overall dispatched number exceeded 100,000, but only "more than 10,000 soldiers" returned to Yumen Pass.
At the time of departure, there were "100,000 cattle, more than 30,000 horses, and tens of thousands of donkeys, mules, and mules." Included, but when the army turned around, there were only "more than a thousand army horses", including the **** BMWs presented to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty...
Gao Shun Chen Ken said, "My lord, we are not ready for many things... It is said that the lord went out and even seized the goods of the ordinary caravan... and did not report to the hussars..."
What Gao Shun wanted to express was that even if he was going to go on an expedition, he had to get in touch with the General of Hussars and get backup supplies, so that he would be more confident, but Gao Shun himself was not very good at speaking, whether it was tone or words They were not tactful enough, it seemed that when Lu Bu heard them, it was as if he was going to beg Fei Qian, the general of the hussars. This made Lu Bu feel very uncomfortable, and his eyes on Gao Shun became more and more unkind .
『These are small things! I make my own arrangements! Lu Bu waved his hand, obviously a little unhappy, "Don't worry about it! This time, I will not care about your previous crime of defeating the army for the time being! Or let you lead the vanguard! After the battle, count the merits and demerits! This matter has been decided, there is no need to discuss it! I said, next year I will drink at Guishan city! 』
Lu Bu's fighting spirit was rising, and his aura was high.
In this world, is there anything more interesting than fighting?
The point of the long knife is invincible!
Whoever refuses to accept it will have his head chopped off!
Now, Lu Bu has confirmed again and again that this is Guishuang's conspiracy, and he, Lu Bu Lu Fengxian, wants to thwart this huge conspiracy and achieve the greatest feat in the Western Regions!
Fight!
Attack!
What's the point of calculating this and that at home every day? I, Mr. Lu Feng, am a man on the battlefield! King of War! I want to use Fang Tian to draw a halberd and make a peerless feat!
…━((*′д`)精(′д`*))━!!!!…
When Lu Bu roared full of fighting intent, Cao Zhen was also full of fighting intent in Xiangyang, Jingzhou.
『We have to make some trouble for Huqi and slow him down...』 Cao Zhen said seriously, "We can't just waste time like this... The longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for us..."
Cao has been to Chang'an in person, and he has a deeper understanding of Chang'an Sanfu and the land of Guanzhong than ordinary Shandong people. He knew that Shandong was lagging behind in some aspects.
This kind of backwardness does not mean that if you are more stubborn, or pretend not to see it, you can treat it as nothing.
Especially when Cao Zhen originally thought that after the war in Jingzhou, he could also learn from the development of Chang'an Sanfu to restore life and improve the economy, but Cao Zhen was very disappointed. It was as if he had clearly done ten things, but in the end only one thing seemed to have some effect, and the hard work and hard work on other things seemed to have been thrown into an endless abyss without even a single echo.
No one can tell Cao Zhen why. After all, even Xun Yu doesn't understand Fei Qian's operation methods very well, let alone Cao Zhen, who is less capable in terms of economics and people's livelihood.
This situation made Cao Zhen very worried.
He feels that this gap will increase as time goes on. The internal strife in the Xiliang Group and the riots in the Xiqiang that the Shandong gentry originally thought did not seem to have any special impact on the Guanzhong regime. If this gap is established, when Cao Cao gets old and Cao Pi is in power, there may be a gap between heaven and earth, a difference between clouds and mud, and even if he wants to do something at that time, I am afraid it will be powerless and irreparable .
Therefore, Cao Zhen felt that it was necessary to disrupt the development of Guanzhong, at least to delay, slow down, or create some trouble for Guanzhong Sanfu...
And now, the best opportunity has come.
Duke Pang De passed away.
It's a sad autumn.
Under the peach blossom forest, dry branches and dead leaves.
The spring flowers have withered, and the autumn frost is cold.
The dead are dead, but the living are fighting endlessly, looking for opportunities, trying to tear off some flesh and blood from each other.
Cao Ren and Cao Zhen didn't feel much sadness about Pang Degong's death, they just felt a little excited and nervous.
"confirmed! Cao Zhen clenched his fist and said, "Pang Shiyuan is in Wancheng!" It is indeed in Wancheng! Lord Pang De passed away, and in the mourning hall, my people saw Pang Shiyuan with their own eyes! 』
In Wancheng, the memorial ceremony held for Pang Degong will naturally be larger than in Chang'an, and the personnel will be more complicated. No matter how much Pang Tong hides, he will inevitably show his whereabouts.
Cao Zhen dispatched his confidants to enter Wancheng in disguise, and after paying more attention, he confirmed that there was Pang Tong in Pang Degong's mourning hall.
『Hmmm…』 Cao Ren nodded, pondered for a while and said, 『How long does Zidan think Pang Shiyuan will stay? 』
『Pang Shiyuan is the son of Duke Pang, so he has to keep his filial piety for seven days...』 Cao Zhen calculated, "But it's only a few days, he will definitely go back! After capturing Pang Shiyuan, we declared that we invited him to Xiangyang as a guest! Shout out! 』
Cao Ren also laughed and nodded slightly.
Heavyweights like this, under normal circumstances, try not to kill if they can, unless it is absolutely necessary, or if they cannot be captured alive at all, and they can only be killed in front of the battle, then there is no way.
The value of capturing alive is obviously greater than beheading.
Of course, it would be even better if Pang Tong could be allowed to surrender to the Cao family.
Even if it doesn’t work, it’s like Cao Cao was very tolerant of Guan Yu in history, a small banquet for three days and a big banquet for five days, just to let everyone see Guan Yu’s beard?
Obviously not.
In Guanzhong, there are many Jingxiang people, and among the Jingxiang people, Pang is obviously the leader. If at this time, Pang Tong showed up in Xiangyang and became a guest at Cao Ren's seat, it would definitely cause a big wave of people guess…
Maybe even Fei Qian will start to suspect Pang Tong. Will Jing Xiang's people in Guanzhong be implicated by this?
Cao Zhen's strategy is undoubtedly the same as the strategy Cao Cao used after capturing Guan Yu in history.
Cao Ren nodded slowly.
He also agreed with Cao Zhen's strategy, but he quickly said: "Pang Shiyuan is resourceful, be careful... We sent people to Wancheng to investigate, and naturally people from Wancheng also came to Xiangyang... If we If there is a change, Wancheng will definitely know about it...』
Cao Zhen said: "Pang Shiyuan's characteristics...hehe, it is too obvious...I have sent many people to keep an eye on the four gates of Wancheng day and night. Can be found! 』
『Hmm...』 Cao Ren nodded, 『However, according to the scout report, at Wuguan, Wei Wenchang led hussars, under the pretense of military training, to and from Wuguan Road, probably also to meet Pang Shiyuan. 』
Cao Zhen nodded, "Indeed. However, Pang Degong passed away, neither Pang Shiyuan nor Wei Wenchang can determine the date, so they must not be able to cooperate seamlessly...』
Cao Ren hummed again.
Indeed.
Old people are sometimes very procrastinating, and sometimes very fragile. No one knows when God will accept them. After all, sometimes black and white may be impermanent, and there may be too much business, too busy, or traffic jams on the road or something...
So even if Wei Yan is waiting and preparing to meet Pang Tong, but because the time cannot be fixed, it will inevitably come back and forth, one wave comes, one wave goes, coming in rotation, and in this rotation, perhaps it is Cao Renhe Cao really had a chance.
『I'm afraid that Pang Shiyuan and Wei Wenchang have been in contact for a long time,』Cao Ren said slowly, 『Pang Shiyuan will wait until Wei Wenchang is in place before leaving. 』
Cao Zhen was stunned for a moment.
This is a problem.
After thinking for a while, Cao Zhen suddenly thought of a way, "General, if I immediately send someone to spread rumors in the city that there are changes in Jiangdong, and I intend to attack Jingzhou..."
Cao Ren's eyes lit up, "Wonderful strategy! Bento is so! 』
