Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Chapter 330 Wen Chou: I finally got it right once

After receiving Jia Xu's suggestion, Li Jue immediately came up with a two-lose plan.

But he divided his troops to resist Sun Jian, while he made a feint of advancing eastward and pushing into Wancheng, but actually hid all the army in Xixian County.

In this way, Sun Jian will definitely attack the opposing army tentatively, and after success, he will definitely take advantage of the situation to take the camp outside the city. After all, in the barracks, there are still some siege equipment that can be captured by them.

Putting down such a heavy bait, I don't believe that Sun Jian, a good fighter who can see the opportunity of a war, will miss it.

Li Jue quickly gave the order and informed Ma Teng that he had a big plan. During this time, don't act rashly. After Sun Jian is dealt with, he will raise his army and take down Nanyang County together.

The offensive in the direction of Yingchuan has come to an end because of Hu Zhen's incident, and Xu Rong of the East Commandery has stayed put. Whether Dong Gong can be promoted this year is entirely up to him.

In fact, Dongjun is not standing still as Li Jue thought, but on the contrary.

Xu Rong mobilized troops and horses to gather towards the white horses. Regardless of whether Zhen's grain crossed the river from Wei County or Qinghe County, Puyang was on one side and white horses on the other. It's fine to take it down.

And to the north of the river, a lot of soldiers and horses have recently gathered and are active in the area of ​​Fanyang.

Since Chen Lin left Wuji County and followed the grain transportation team all the way south, what he saw along the way made him very complicated.

The official road in Jizhou is flat and spacious. There are fertile fields everywhere outside the official road. On every hilly field, people can be seen plowing. Many of them even use oxen to pull the plow. The speed is so fast that he can't believe it.

Although she is a scholar, Chen Lin is not ignorant of farming, but the speed of plowing the land really surprised him.

He deliberately stopped and stepped forward to see what happened.

Walking to the ground, Chen Lin observed for a while, then walked towards an old farmer who was resting under the shade of a tree.

"Old man!" Chen Lin called out with a smile on her face.

The old farmer raised his head and looked at Chen Lin. He had a fair face and neat clothes. He was a scholar, maybe an official. He immediately turned over and stood up to treat him solemnly.

"What orders does the Shangguan have?" The old farmer asked very respectfully.

"Please tell me, old man, what are the plowing tools used by the peasants?"

The old man was quick-witted, and immediately knew that he was not an official. In Jizhou, everyone didn't know this thing.

"You are a scholar from other places. This is called Quyuanli. It was modified by the King of Bohai on the basis of the original straight plow. Not to mention, this modification is much more effective. When the grain is harvested this autumn and the money saved Money, let's rent one and try it!"

"You said that this thing was made by the King of Bohai, and then leased to farmers for use?"

Chen Lin tried her best to conceal the turmoil in her heart, and asked in a flat tone, as if chatting about homework.

The changes in Jizhou are too great. Three years ago, the Yellow Turbans were raging, and half of the state was scorched. Even two years ago, there were constant turmoil. The Jizhou in the mouth of Yingru scholars will always be Wang Fen's rebellion, rampant in Montenegro, and strong resistance Jizhou, Jizhou without prosperity.

However, seeing is believing. The Jizhou that Chen Lin saw not only had no yellow scarves, no Black Mountains, no military disasters, and even thieves and bandits could not be found. It's not yet March, and strictly speaking, when they haven't even plowed the fields, the performance of these farmers can only show that they can't wait.

Stable law and order, high enthusiasm, and improved tools, Chen Lin added a few more labels to Jizhou in his heart. Now, he seems to understand why the people of Jizhou choose Bohai King.

Previously, he didn't understand why Liu Qing was the king of Bohai and didn't live in Bohai.

Now he knows that the king of Bohai is not only the king of Bohai, but also the king of Jizhou.

From here to there, then Bingzhou...

For some reason, Chen Lin suddenly had a thought in her heart that "no one in the world can compete with him".

"Scholar, I don't know where you are from?" The old farmer asked abruptly, which made Chen Lin alert.

"Old man, I'm not a scholar. I'm a merchant from Dongjun County. Look, that's my caravan!" Chen Lin pointed at him and responded with a smile, "Jizhou's grain is cheap, so I came to collect it." "

The old farmer took a look and saw that it was really a caravan.

"That's a pity, I thought you were a scholar who came here to defect, otherwise, if the old man takes you to the county, you can get two rewards!" The old farmer was full of words and smiled mockingly.

Chen Lin listened, and felt that something was wrong. Scholars came to vote, and people could receive rewards for recommending them?What kind of trick is this?

No matter how it sounds, it sounds like the opposite of the probation system. What is King Bohai going to do?
"Come on, we're going to be busy, anyway, you're not a scholar." The old farmer muttered, and walked towards the field, leaving behind Chen Lin with black hair.

Are you willing to say a few more words to me about feelings, just because I look like a scholar?Can I get money when I report to the county government?
How could this Jizhou be like this!

The governor of Jizhou is Xun Yu, who came from a famous Xun family, so he shouldn't be so deviant!

Weird?Weird!

Chen Lin felt that she could write a long essay on this trip to Jizhou!

Continued southward for a few days, and finally entered the territory of Wei County. Chen Lin received a report from the front sentry, saying that the front line of Fanyang was undergoing a military exercise, and idlers, etc., were not allowed to enter the exercise area, otherwise they would be regarded as enemies .

If Fanyang can't do it, why not go to Liyang?But the problem is that Liyang is too far away from Jiyin County, and Yuan Gong's troops may not be able to reach there, and if they take a detour, they are more likely to be discovered by Xu Rong.

It would be fine if the supporting soldiers and horses arrived, but if Xu Rong found out first, then the 20 shi of grain would probably enter Puyang's granary.

Chen Lin thought about it, but decided to slow down and send someone to contact Yuan Gong's soldiers.

Just when Chen Lin was hesitating about where to cross the river, Liu Qing and Xu Rong had already made arrangements.

Fanyang crossing the river is opposite to Puyang, so it is naturally not the first choice, and Fanyang is now being trained by the king of Bohai, so it is temporarily blocked. At present, it is not easy for Liu Qing to grab it directly.

Li Yang crossed the river, facing the white horse, at this time Xu Rongzheng personally led two battalions of soldiers and horses, stationed on the white horse, ready to make decisions at any time.

From crossing the river in Nanjun to Jiyin, there is a long and narrow Dongjun in the middle. The closest distance between the two places is less than fifty miles, but Puyang County is just on the closest connection.

As soon as Yuan Jun arrived in Lihu, he learned that Xu Rong had also made a move. Fan Chou went out of Puyang and pressed towards the border, while Lu Bu changed his defense to Xiancheng.

Troops from all three parties gathered in Dongjun again, and even the location remained unchanged.

Wen Chou is negotiating with Guo Tu about the response, and there is no news from Chen Lin so far, so he can only choose to wait. Wen Chou is the main general in this battle, Guo Tu is the military advisor, and there are as many as six generals under his tent, which is obviously the decisiveness that Yuan Shao said Once, it's all or nothing.

Finally, in late February, Wen Chou received the news that Chen Lin planned to cross the river from Liyang, which meant that Yuan Jun was going to Baima to meet him.

"White horse, another white horse!"

Wen Chou, who got the news, was very dissatisfied with this issue, because this was where Yuan Jun fell.

"General, the white horse was once occupied by our side, and we are more familiar with the city and surrounding conditions. This line seems to be far away, but it is actually remote to Xu Rong, unless he has no foresight and is stationed in the white horse in advance." Guo. Figure analysis.

At this time, Xu Rong in Baima City sneezed for some unknown reason.

"The white horse will be the white horse, military advisor, when will we set off?" Wen Chou was rather anxious. After Puyang's defeat, he hadn't used force for nearly half a year.

"Send more sentries and continue to investigate! When Chen Lin is about to cross the river, our army will move again. We only need to block the white horse garrison and cover the grain team to pass!" Guo Tu rubbed the letter and held it in his hand. This battle is also full of confidence.

……

On the other side, Chen Lin was intensively preparing to cross the river. Originally, 20 shi was not a small amount of cargo. If it was transported back and forth by ferry, it might not be possible to cross the river for a few days or nights. In the dry season, a pontoon bridge was built. Today, the pontoon bridge is still there, but it is charged.

There is no poll tax, only currency tax.

As the cows and horses pulled the carts across the river, Chen Lin knew that the most dangerous moment was coming.

Such a large team must not be hidden from their eyes and ears. Even if someone immediately reported to Xu Rong that Xu Rong sent troops from Puyang, the time it took for Chen Lin to pass through.

"Pass the order and pass quickly!" Chen Lin ordered.

Crossing the river went smoothly, Chen Liu was relieved, and he also had a little more respect for the King of Bohai in his heart. He knew that he was fighting with Yuan, but he didn't get in the way. As for the military exercise, it was held there a month ago. Not against him.

How did he know that the King of Bohai did not target him, but had targeted him since a month ago.

As he gradually approached Baima County, Chen Liu became more and more nervous, and his hands were directly sweating in the slightly cold weather.

"Chen Changshi, there are soldiers and horses ahead, it's General Wen Chou!"

When Chen Lin heard that it was Wen Chou, Chen Lin's heart was finally half down, and she was no longer so depressed.

Now that the connection has been made smoothly, it means that his previous mission has basically been completed, and whether it will go smoothly or not depends mainly on the escorting general.

At this time, Wen Chou also discovered Chen Lin's food team, and everything was as planned, but what was not planned was——

Xu Rong also appeared!

"Xu Rong's appearance at this time shows that he has taken precautions beforehand. It is better for our army to attack first and make him tired of coping. In this way, let the grain team pass smoothly." Wen Chou said, offense is the best defense.

Guo Tu expressed his objection and persuaded: "General, Mr. Yuan has an order. This trip is for the purpose of escorting the food team, and we have no intention of launching a full-scale war."

"When did the Yuan family and Dong Zhuo cease fighting? Nanyang is constantly fighting, and Puyang is nothing to be afraid of. Last time, if the King of Bohai hadn't disrupted the situation, Puyang would have been in Yuan Gong's hands. Today we are strong and strong, so why fear a battle!"

Wen Chou's fighting spirit was high, Guo Tu was helpless, so he had no choice but to say: "General, don't forget that the King of Bohai is on the other side of the river. If the King of Bohai is provoked to send troops, it is unknown whether our army will be able to retreat completely. The food team will definitely be taken. Do you believe it or not?"

Guo Tu's cold water instantly extinguished Wen Chou's fighting spirit. After reuniting with Chen Lin, it meant that the food team became his supply team, and it was a super-large and dragging team. It was impossible to fight heartily.

Wen Chou said angrily: "Forget it, just listen to the military advisor!"

However, as soon as Wen Chou finished tangling, a sentry came to report.

"Report-"

"General Wen, General Zhao's troops encountered Xu Rongjun, and the two have already started fighting!"

"Zhao Rui is fighting?" Wen Chou's eyes lit up, and he said hastily: "Pass my order, Chunyu Qiong and Lu Weihuang's troops, go to support, and be sure to repel the enemy!"

Guo Tu felt that there was nothing wrong with Wen Chou's arrangement, so he didn't speak, but Wen Chou had the second half of the sentence.

"Order Jiang Qi to guard the food team, Han Meng and Jiang Yiqu, and follow me to attack Xu Rong's headquarters directly. It doesn't matter whether we win or lose, the food team can pass through here safely!"

When Guo Tu heard this, he quickly dissuaded him: "No, the general. The grain team will take at least three days to pass through the border of Dongjun. How can the whole army go out?"

Wen Chou glanced sideways, "Doesn't the military master think that we are inferior to Xu Rong?"

Guo Tu: If it’s still not as good, you didn’t count it yourself!Have you ever won a battle?

"Xu Rong has a total of only 3 people in Dongjun. He still divides his troops with Fan Chou, and he has to keep troops to garrison in various places. The army that can be used must be no more than [-]. What's the point!"

"General, Xu Rong is cunning with his troops, so we have to guard against them!"

"Hmph, I have the advantage. No matter what trick he uses, wait for me to break it with all my strength. That's called, one force down ten times!" Wen Chou couldn't deny it in his words. Get ready to fight yourself.

Guo Tu was almost frightened, and said repeatedly: "The general is now the leader of the first army, and he is no longer a general who charges forward!"

Wen Chou paused suddenly and thought for a while: It seems so, so he put back the spear.

Only then did Guo Tu breathe a sigh of relief. Wen Chou's personal victory or defeat was fine, but he couldn't bear the burden of any problems with the food team. As a confidant, Guo Tu knew the importance of this batch of food.

On the other side, Xu Rongjun's first team was fighting with Zhao Rui. Both sides were mixed on foot and cavalry, and they were in a mess.

On a high ground, Xu Rong was looking at the battlefield.

"General, Yuan Jun's reinforcements are here."

"It's okay, General Shen can still hold on. Remember, according to the intention of King Bohai, this battle is not for killing the enemy, but for grabbing food and grass. When Yuan Jun's army appears, you will lead people to contain it. I will lead the army to rob the enemy." grain!"

The general nodded, "The general is wise! But what if Yuan Shao's army is overwhelmed?"

Xu Rong was stunned for a moment, the opponent's general should not be so stupid!
"Yuan Jun is powerful. If the whole army really presses up, all arguments will become meaningless, and the battle will return to the rhythm of killing the enemy to determine the outcome. Moreover, our army is still at a disadvantage. This battle is ours. I underestimated Yuan Shao's determination, I never imagined that he would dispatch such a large army to support the grain team."

The general smiled and said: "Don't worry, General, General Yuan Jun is not a scumbag, and he will definitely not resort to all-out tactics. There is still a good chance of winning the grain team!"

Xu Rong looked into the distance, and the White Horse Ferry was faintly visible, and he also agreed with the general's opinion.

This battle, although outnumbered, has a good chance of winning!
