Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Chapter 231 The Turtle in the Urn Yuan Benchu

Nephrite jade is warm and fragrant, intoxicating.

The two embraced for a long time, until they were stopped by a certain candle, and they let go of each other.

Cai Yan pampered Princess Wannian's head, expressing that he did not ignore her.

"Madam is so devoted, what are you writing about?" Liu Qing returned to the topic he was thinking about.

While asking questions, she led Cai Yan to the case and reviewed what she had written halfway through.

"Yiluo Jingwei, Weiji boats. Clouds and rains are zero, fog, dew, snow and frost. The sun and the moon, the stars and the morning. The winter cold and summer heat, the mysterious yin and yang..."

Liu Qing consciously skipped the unknown word, such as cloud and rain, sun and moon, yin and yang, like some kind of common sense book.

Liu Qing looked at Cai Yan in confusion, "This is He Wen?"

Cai Yan showed surprise, "Husband hasn't read it?"

Liu Qing was even more confused now, didn't you write this, how could I have read it.

"This is Cangjie Pian compiled by the great calligrapher Jia Bing. It is an elementary reading material. My husband came from the clan, so I may have learned another reading material." Cai Yan said.

Well, I'm studying nine-year compulsory education, Liu Qing thought.

"This is what you wrote after staying up all night?" Liu Qing stared at Cai Yan's eyes, several bloodshot eyes were clearly visible in the whites of his eyes.

"The original book is at home in Yu County. I haven't brought it yet. My father was there before. He taught this article without the original book. However, my father said that he would go to Luoyang to serve as an official."

really!Dong Zhuo started recruiting celebrities from all over the world, and his two father-in-laws were both shot by arrows.

"Do you know who the official is?" Liu Qing said again.

"Father is very attracted to the job of being the censor of the book," Cai Yan said.

Liu Qing didn't know what kind of official it was, but the official position related to the book was indeed attractive enough to Cai Yong.

Because he was going to Luoyang to serve as an official, so Liu Qing's talk about Daxing Academy should come to nothing.

And Cai Yan wanted to write "Cangjie Pian" silently, obviously hoping that the school could continue to run, and Cai Yong was about to leave, so she wrote silently overnight.

Liu Qing looked at the delicate and neat handwriting, which looked like a calligraphy post, and looked at the stack of manuscripts beside him. He held Cai Yan's hand tightly, and said, "Why don't you order someone to fetch it immediately."

"It will take half a month to go back and forth, and I will be able to finish writing in two days." Cai Yan said, pointing to the manuscript and looking at Liu Qing.

Liu Qing understood that she wanted to sit down and continue writing.

It is easy to open a school, but it is also easy to invite literate teachers, but what is difficult is what to teach.

Usually, elementary school and classical classics are monopolized by the gentry. For example, Cai Yong is a famous teacher, and what he masters is taught by him and becomes his disciple. Although the school system envisioned by Liu Qing has won the support of Cai Yong, but at present It was only piloted in Yuanshi County, and it has not even been promoted in Changshan.

Perhaps by taking advantage of this opportunity, Cai Yanmo's "Cang Jie Pian" is a dictionary of Mongolian knowledge that has been continuously revised and improved by scholars of all ages, and it can be used as a so-called "textbook".

Now that the unification of Jizhou is imminent, many ideas can be gradually put into practice.

"Take a break, and accompany me to the courtyard to see Luyi." Liu Qing rejected Cai Yan's idea of ​​continuing to write, took her hand, and walked out of the study, "Wannian, go?"

Wannian didn't really want to talk to someone, so he took his aunt by the hand.

In this way, Liu Qing led Cai Yan, and Cai Yan led Wan Nian, out of the study, and walked towards the courtyard.

Liu Qing suddenly remembered that when he was renovating the courtyard in the past, he ordered people to plant a few peach trees. Now it is April, and he doesn't know if the peach blossoms have faded.

Glancing at a corner of the courtyard from the corridor, Liu Qing saw the trees full of peach blossoms in full bloom.

Liu Qing paused, turned around and covered Cai Yan's eyes.

"Husband, what are you doing?"

"Go forward, I will take you with me, no peeking is allowed." Liu Qing smiled.

Because Liu Qing's study and bedroom are in the same area, and Cai Yan stayed up all day and night to write, Liu Qing guessed that she didn't go to the courtyard, so he wanted to surprise Cai Yan.

After walking a few steps, Princess Wannian thought it was interesting, she held Cai Yan's hand to cover her eyes, and followed the two in the dark.

After several rounds, Liu Qing carefully brought Cai Yan into the courtyard. Although there were only a few peach trees, the branches were densely covered with flowers, just like being in a peach forest.

Liu Qing let go of Cai Yan's eyes.

"Wow!" Cai Yan sighed involuntarily, obviously fascinated by the scene in front of him.

"Husband, I never noticed that there are peach blossoms in the mansion." Cai Yan said excitedly.

"Wow! Uncle, I never noticed that peach blossoms are planted in the mansion!" Wan Nian said.

Liu Qing really wanted to find a reason to remove the small candle, he finally lived a two-person world, and insisted on following like a bug.

"The peach blossoms in the north bloom late, but they bloom just right!" Liu Qing said.

Cai Yan stretched out her hand and caressed the peach blossoms. She watched quietly with her beautiful eyes. The flowers were reflected, as if flowers had bloomed in her eyes.

She liked peach blossoms at first, but because of her love for peach blossoms with Liu Qing, she became more fond of peach blossoms, and now knowing that these peach trees were planted by Liu Qing, bursts of sweetness rose in her heart, showing on her face.

The peach blossoms on the human face are red, and the so-called happy smile may be just like Zhao Ji in front of her.

……

Yuan Shao personally led an army of [-], crossed the river from Yanjin, and directly captured Huai County, Hanoi County.

Today's Hanoi prefect is Zhu Jun from Luoyang Feng. Zhu Jun was born and is not considered a nobleman. All his promotions are based on little military exploits. Moreover, he is a conservative faction. Since Liu Xie is the Emperor of Han, he should obey him. How can there be another argument.

Before Yuan Shao's army came to attack, the document had already been circulated several times, urging him to surrender and submit to the emperor. Zhu Jun snorted, confronted the envoy directly, and burned the document.

Now his old partner Huangfusong is an official in the Luoyang court, although he is not a general, but since he accepts it, it shows that he is also guarding the system.

On one side is Huai County, which is in danger and has few major generals, and on the other side is Yuan Shao, who is overwhelmed by soldiers. Just when Zhu Jun was planning to defend to the death, a letter from Taiwei Dong Zhuo came.

"Zhu Jun's troops withdrew from Huai County and retreated up Qinshui to defend Yewang."

Leaving aside the order of the Taiwei, Zhu Jun should obey it, and Zhu Jun also understood that Dong Zhuo's move naturally had other arrangements.

After Dong Zhuo helped the young emperor, and he also heard about the defeat of the allied forces in the south of Dahe, outside Hulao Pass, Zhu Jun now dare not underestimate Dong Zhuo.

This deployment was naturally Jia Xu's idea. With Zhu Jun's two battalions of troops, even if it took a while to defend Huai County, in the face of Yuan Shao's army, Huai County's fall was inevitable.

Why waste these two battalions of soldiers.

Jia Xu stands at the pass, and the gentle south wind blows slowly. Looking north, you can see the big river, and on the other side of the big river is Hanoi County.

As a leading general, Wang Fang followed Jia Xu. He imitated Jia Xu's appearance and looked far away, but he didn't seem to see anything except a few birds flying by.

"Sir, if Zhu Jun withdraws his troops, then Yuan Shao will be in no man's land!" After thinking about this matter, Wang Fang still mentioned it.

"The longer the battle line, the more difficult it is to supply. Zhu Taishou stationed troops and the king of the wild will let Yuan Shao fight, and it's not right not to fight."

Wang Fang was stunned, "What do you mean by hitting? Not even hitting?"

Jia Xu glanced at Wang Fang, and gave him a look that you can understand for yourself.

To explain such a simple question would be too demeaning.

The king of the wild is in the north, and Yuan Shao's goal is Xiaopingjin Pass, which is to cross the great river in the south. It can be said that attacking the north runs counter to his goal.

"Sir, I heard that Yuan Shao's army is three times larger than ours, can we hold it?"

Jia Xu glanced at Wang Fang again. This question is related to the morale of the army, so it must be explained.

"General Wang, Dong Gong ordered me to come here, not to defend this place, but to defeat Yuan Shao's army."

"Defeat?" Wang Fang was stunned, somewhat incomprehensible, Yuan Shao had an army of [-], and when he was about to say something, he saw that Jia Xu had already left.

"Henan has won a big victory, maybe Hanoi can also win a big victory!" Wang Fang murmured.

……

Wherever Liu Qing went, a large number of letters were sent there, and when Liu Qing moved, the letters were often transferred, which was very troublesome.

Liu Qing thought about this problem many times, but unfortunately he couldn't come up with any solution.

In the Han Dynasty, post stations were set up every [-] miles. Today, the world is in chaos. For example, Jizhou has abandoned many post stations.

In the study room, Liu Qing curled up on the carpet in a lazy posture, reading letters and newspapers by himself, while Cai Yan sat in the front seat of the big case and continued to silently write "Cangjie Chapter" in her memory. .

After some understanding, I found out that the classics she was going to write silently had more than 7000 words. Just hearing this number, Liu Qing felt his scalp tingling, and remembered the fear of being dominated by "familiar memorization and recitation" in his previous life.

"Kang Kuang of Zhang Miao defeated Xingyang."

Looking at the concise, clear and informative letter, Liu Qing couldn't help but sigh, is Xu Rong wearing four clothes?
Will it play if four hit one and be counter-killed?

How to ask Xu Rong?
With a bunch of questions, Liu Qing opened another one.

"Yuan Shao's army crossed the river at Yanjin and entered Hanoi County."

Hulao Pass failed, Yuan Shao chose to attack from north to south, that is to say, Yuan Shao's army is now in Hanoi!

What is the location of Hanoi, east of Hedong County, north of Luoyang, and west of Wei County.

There is Zhang Ning's Baibo Army in Hedong, Luo Yang needless to say, Dong Zhuo will send troops to fight, and Wei County has Zhang Liao, and there is a little more, Hanoi County has a large area where the Black Mountain Army is active.

Liu Qing had a flash of inspiration and suddenly had an idea!
Yuan Shao sent it to his door, he couldn't move, if he could eat up a [-] army, how many weapons and horses would he get, and how much food and grass would he capture?
Yuan Shi has always been fat.

"Ma'am, I'll go to the barracks!" Liu Qing said to Cai Yan.

Cai Yan held his head high, smiled at Liu Qing, nodded silently, and immediately buried himself in writing again.

Not only serious men are attractive, but serious women are also attractive.

Liu Qing left the mansion and went straight to Yuan's camp.

Zhang He and Chu Yan have already returned to the Yuan Clan and are currently living in Daying. Liu Qing's trip is here to discuss the next move.

In the big camp, it was a little deserted. This was a barracks built for an army of [-]. Now there are probably not even [-] soldiers in it.

Zhang Yun had only two thousand halberd soldiers, while Chu Yan had only one thousand archers, and the rest were recruits recruited by Han Heng.

Liu Qing's arrival quickly alarmed Zhang He and the others, before Liu Qing could enter the camp of the Chinese army, Zhang He, Chu Yan, and Zhang Xiu who had been staying in the camp came up to meet him.

"Zhang He greets the lord!"

"Chu Yan greets the lord!"

The two, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, even tried their best to kneel down, for fear that Liu Qing would overlook their bravery.

"Zhang Xiu pays homage to the King of Bohai Sea!"

Liu Qing helped several people to enter the account together.

"I haven't seen you for a few months, and the two generals are getting more and more energetic. They want to garrison the fortress for a long time, and they are exhausted!" Liu Qing laughed.

Zhang He and Chu Yan looked at each other, and smiled embarrassedly, obviously Liu Qing had hit the mark.

"Next, there will be a big battle waiting for you, you can be happy first!" Liu Qing said.

Zhang Yun's eyes lit up immediately, looking forward to it, while Chu Yan was grinning, and with that short, uneven beard full of shabby mouth, he looked very funny.

"But you have to face an enemy with ten times more soldiers and enough food!" Liu Qing suddenly made a turning point.

Ten times the enemy, Zhang Yun's eyes lit up again when he heard it, but a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, while Chu Yan was stunned on the spot.

Together, he and Junyi only have three thousand soldiers and horses, ten times the enemy, that is thirty thousand.

"But we still have reinforcements!" Liu Qing turned again.

"But right now, I haven't contacted reinforcements yet." Liu Qing thought for a while and said again.

Zhang He, Chu Yan, and Zhang Xiu stood aside, as if they were waiting for the lord to finish speaking in one breath.

"The north and east of Hanoi County are surrounded by mountains, making it difficult for supplies to enter, suitable for setting up an ambush, while the west and south are densely covered with water systems, making it easy to be blocked when advancing and retreating an army. In this way, [-] soldiers and horses entering Hanoi are like turtles entering a urn."

"Next, let me talk about deployment."

As soon as Liu Qing finished speaking, Zhang Xiu took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "King of Bohai Sea, Zhang Xiu resigns!"

Military deployment is a secret, so Zhang Xiu resigned consciously.

"It's okay for Youwei, Taiwei Dong is also involved in this matter, if you want, you can also participate!" Liu Qing said to Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu paused and stopped in place.

Liu Qing went on to say: "Hedong Zhang Ning has tens of thousands of soldiers. I want to order him to order a light cavalry to enter Jiguan and enter Hanoi, thinking that the west will respond. Junyi, you will lead your halberd soldiers to go south from Heishan into Hanoi, and fight with them." Together with Zhang Liao, they thought that the east side would respond, and besides, Chu Yan, I have an important task for you!"

Chu Yan, who was dazed, suddenly woke up, looked back at Liu Qing, and grinned again, which almost made Liu Qing laugh out loud.

"The Black Mountain Army has thousands of soldiers, and they surrendered to Zhongshan County together with Zhang Niujiao. I have not forcibly demoted these people into labor, just for today."

Chu Yan was at a loss when he heard this, except that he had heard of the Black Mountain Army and Zhang Niujiao. He was the famous leader of the Black Mountain Army.

"I want you to return to the Black Mountain with Zhang Niujiao and call all the Black Army Mountains to attack Yuan Shao."

"My lord, I heard you right, you want me to be a member of the Black Mountain Army?"

"Well...it seems...it seems...that's true!" Liu Qing said, "But your ultimate goal is not Yuan Shao, but to gather all the Black Mountain Army who make a living by looting houses. The number of them may be in the tens of thousands. Even hundreds of thousands, to be precise, I plan to use you as a lure to take down the entire Montenegrin army."

Liu Qing's explanation couldn't be clearer, Chu Yan understood, Zhang Niujiao's leadership was only a part of the Black Mountain Army, and what Liu Qing wanted was all of them!
"Chu Yan takes orders!"

"I will lead the archers of your headquarters. In this battle, I will personally go to meet Yuan Benchu ​​and Youwei, and you will go out with me!"

"Zhang Xiu takes orders!" Zhang Xiu replied in a heavy voice.

Liu Qing set up a plan to attack Zhang Ning and Chu Yan from east to west, with the Baibo Army in the west and the Black Mountain Army in the east. These two forces, in the eyes of outsiders, are both rebellious.

Now that the Yuan family is gaining momentum, Liu Qing doesn't want to openly tear up the face with the Yuan family, and attract crazy revenge, especially the blow to reputation. At this time, the Yuan family still has no solution.

As for why Liu Qing went to Hanoi, of course it was to pacify the Montenegro Army!
It's just that, whether it's a coincidence or a tacit understanding, Jia Xu set up a north-south pincer formation, while Liu Qing set up an east-west pinch formation.

This Yuan Shao is really about to become the turtle in the urn!
