Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Liu Qing stared blankly at the few words in the military newspaper.

"Yuan Shu sent Sun Jian to lead an army of [-] to break Xuanyuan Pass and enter Liang County."

When Liu Qing read out the information in the letter, Cao Cao and Liu Bei were obviously a little bit surprised.

Cao Cao sighed: "I have heard for a long time that Sun Wentai is brave and good at fighting, and is good at attacking fortifications. I didn't expect Xuanyuan Pass to be so dangerous that it was captured so quickly."

Liu Qing wondered if Sun Jian was able to attack so quickly, there might be other secrets. Dong Zhuo knew that Luoyang had changed, but still launched an offensive in Jiyin, but Yingchuan did not move, which meant that Dong Zhuo decided to order Niu Fu to return to Luoyang. That's why Xuanyuanguan was empty, and Sun Jian could take advantage of it.

"Sun Jian wanted to attack Luoyang, did Yuan Shao use this to contain Dong Zhuo and force him to retreat?" Liu Bei asked.

Liu Qing and Cao Cao looked at each other. Liu Bei still knew very little about the Yuan family. Cao Cao was different. He knew a lot about the internal affairs of the Yuan family. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were friendly on the surface, but Cao Cao knew what was going on behind the scenes well aware.

As for Liu Qing, that was God's perspective, and there are probably not many people who know Yuan Shu's ambitions, so Yuan Shu's attack on Luoyang may not be Yuan Shao's order to contain Dong Zhuo, but ulterior motives.

As for what intentions, it is self-evident.

"It seems that Luoyang's changing situation is far more complicated than we thought. Now let's see if Niu Fu can stop Sun Jian." Liu Qing said, but he already had the answer in his heart. Of course, Niu Fu can't stop Sun Jian. , with Yuan Shu behind his back to provide soldiers, horses, food and grass, Sun Jian might reproduce the highlight moments in history.

"Your Majesty, outside the Hangu Pass, the Qiang Liang army entered Luoyang, and now that Sun Jian has entered Xuanyuan Pass, I am afraid that Luoyang will not be able to hold on, so we must take precautions against this!" Cao Cao reminded, he did not want Luoyang to have trouble, if Something happened to the emperor, and Liu Qing recommended Yanzhou Mu, who will give him the title!

Liu Qing waved his hand and said with a smile: "Let's deal with the matter at hand for now. After defeating Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu is nothing to worry about!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Qing raised his voice and ordered: "Generals, let's go to war!"

……

Jiang Qi obeyed Yuan Shao's order to march to Meng County again. The distance between Bo County and Meng County has always been controlled by Yuan Jun, so Jiang Qi ordered all the ministries to march on their own and gather at the predetermined location. Yuan Jun The infantry marched very slowly, and several days passed in the blink of an eye, without encountering anything unusual along the way.

Even Cao Jun's scouts couldn't see it, but Jiang Qi became alert instead. Could it be that after the King of Bohai came, Meng County felt safe and didn't even bother to investigate?

Jiang Qi didn't think about ambush for the time being, because he chose to withdraw his troops at the beginning, and he retreated with his whole body. Liu Qingbing didn't pursue them. If he wanted to annihilate them, chasing them while retreating would be more effective than any ambush.

Everything was normal, and Jiang Qi marched normally until he was five miles away from Meng County, which was the scheduled assembly point, and then waited for the follow-up troops to arrive one after another.

After waiting for a day, only one came.

Jiang Qi became curious. This march seems to be slower than last time.

Then waited another day, still no soldiers and horses came to meet up.

Jiang Qi became anxious, because according to the distance, even Yuan Gong should arrive soon.

...

Jiang Qi ordered the former army to strengthen the vigilance, and he brought his own soldiers and horses, and walked back along the old road until he traveled five or six miles, and saw Yuan Jun's corpse lying in a mess beside a mountain forest.

"The infantry has been attacked!" Jiang Qi suddenly realized, this is the case for one, but what about the others?Could it be...

Jiang Qi hastened to speed up, feeling extremely anxious and worried about Yuan Shao's safety.

On the way back, Jiang Qi came across three or four scenes where Yuan Jun was attacked. In each battlefield, there were hundreds of Yuan Jun’s corpses, and the others were all missing, and all the supplies were looted. destroyed in situ.

Jiang Qi finally realized that there was a big problem. In three days, only the soldiers and horses closest to him came to join, and the soldiers and horses that did not meet were obviously attacked. The front army had 2 infantry, divided into ten groups However, there was only one road left.

Jiang Qi finally couldn't hold back, and led his army to gallop towards Bianshui Nanzhai regardless of safety and hidden dangers.

In fact, Jiang Qi was completely overwhelmed, Yuan Shao didn't cross the bridge at all, because his departure time was delayed.

The reason for the delay was naturally the news that also came from Yingchuan: Sun Jian had entered Xuanyuan Pass.

Yuan Shao was so surprised that he discussed with Feng Ji for half a day and lost sleep all night. Finally, Yuan Shao urgently called Chen Lin back from Nanyang to ask what happened.

When Yuan Shao made hasty preparations to lead his troops southward, a cavalry blocked the way at the Bianshui Bridge.

When Yuan Shao got the report, he was furious, and immediately scolded: "I support tens of thousands of you, can it be that one person can't handle it!"

The visitor said: "That man is the King of Bohai Sea."

Yuan Shao was stunned and did not speak.

"Just one person?" Yuan Shao asked.

"Yes."

"Then what are you waiting for, hack me to death!" Yuan Shao said angrily.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Yuan!" Feng Ji hurriedly stopped him, "The King of Bohai is here, there must be ambushes behind the bridge, so we have to guard against it!"

"Yuan Tu and Liu Qing's swords are all on my face, so should I back down?"

"Yuan Gong, you can shoot with random arrows!" Feng Ji suggested.

Yuan Shao thought about it, random arrows are not enough, but he quickly thought of something good, called someone immediately, and confessed: "There are two heavy crossbows in the army, and Liu Qing's life was taken away with them!"

Feng Ji nodded again and again.

Liu Qing stood horizontally on the bridge, not far opposite was the North Camp of Yuan Jun. At this time, there were many cavalry at the gate, all of them were watching Liu Qing vigilantly. Suddenly, there was a commotion behind the camp. After all, Liu Qing was really startled when the thing came out of the line.

It turned out to be two heavy crossbows, and they were facing him.

Gan!Yuan Benchu, you don't talk about Wude!Liu Qing cursed in his heart, and immediately raised the reins of the war horse Jinge. At the same time, two irons missed their launch and roared towards him. Liu Qing swiped the iron spear, and there was a crisp sound of "ding", and Liu Qing swung the other iron spear away with one blow.

Watching Yuan Jun reload the heavy crossbow again, Liu Qing immediately ordered Jin Ge to turn around and run towards the south.

Liu Qing would not touch this bad thing for the sake of face. Under Liu Qing's intentional drive, Jin Ge ran away from the bridge as soon as he smoked.

"The so-called armor-piercing iron loss in Xu Huang's letter should be this thing. It seems that the power is really good. The disadvantage is that the reloading is a little slow. Liu Qing only shot one round from receiving the arrow to fleeing.

...

On the other side, the King of Bohai "fleeed" away, and Yuan Jun reported it to Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao immediately showed a proud expression, as if he had taken advantage of the King of Bohai.

"Yuan Gong, the fact that Liu Qing is here means that Jiang Qi is in danger!" Feng Ji said.

"Then what should we do? Jiang Qi has been away for several days, is he now in the full set of King Bohai?"

Is it right? Fengji is not sure yet, but Liu Qing's appearance here to cut off the bridge is enough to show that Jiang Qi's situation is very bad. Maybe he is already in prison. Fengji is well aware of Jiang Qi's role in this battle , if he was really captured or killed by the King of Bohai, then the offensive against the Liang Kingdom could also be declared to have collapsed.

So Feng Ji said to Yuan Shao: "Duke Yuan, General Jiang has traveled south for several days, and I'm afraid he has been deeply surrounded by the enemy army. My lord should send someone to rescue him!"

"But the King of Bohai is still here!" Yuan Shao said.

"My lord, if General Jiang Qi makes a mistake, our army's attack on Liang can be stopped!"

"Then...then send troops to cross the river? Or..." Yuan Shao was in a state of confusion at this time, unable to make up his mind at all, so he simply threw the question to Feng Ji, "Yuan Tu, how to deal with it, you decide!"

Feng Ji immediately ordered: "Wu Yao, Peng Shen, you two lead Yuan Gongrui to ride towards Nanzhai. If you encounter the enemy, remember not to stay. Go straight out and look for General Jiang Qi. Be sure to protect him!"

The second general led the way.

At the same time, Jiang Qi galloped all the way and just returned to Nanzhai. Unlike what he imagined, Nanzhai was not occupied by King Bohai's soldiers and horses, and it was empty inside.

With an uneasy mood, Jiang Qi continued to go deeper, and finally, when he approached the Bianshui Bridge again, he heard the sound of fighting in front of him.

"Sure enough!" Jiang Qi's heart tightened, and he immediately ordered: "Soldiers, follow me to take back the camp and kill!"

Jiang Qi's mind was hot, he drew his sword and went to it, and soon, he saw the true face of King Bohai.

Liu Qing also heard the movement of the rear army, so he put down the battle at hand and came to Jiang Qi.

"We finally met again, General Jiang Qi!" Liu Qing casually said politely, but he just recognized it. It has been several years since the Battle of Hanoi, and Yuan Shao had many generals under his command. At that time, Liu Qing only knew his name. I don't see anyone.

Faced with Liu Qing's greetings, Jiang Qi didn't know how to reply for a while. The two sides were enemies, so naturally he couldn't understand. But when he looked at the King of Bohai face to face, he couldn't say the usual curses and vulgar greetings. .

"Your other nine armies have all been defeated. Unexpectedly, this king will take the initiative to attack." Liu Qing said quite complacently.

Speaking of this, Jiang Qi couldn't help becoming curious.

"When did you set up the ambush, and how did you know that I would attack Meng County again?" Jiang Qi asked.

"Do you think that when Yuan Jun withdrew that day, why didn't this king pursue Chen Sheng?"

"Why?" Jiang Qi asked very cooperatively.

"Because this king knows that if you retreat completely, Yuan Shao will definitely blame you, and will definitely condemn you to attack again. As for the ambush point, it was Cheng Yu and Cheng Zhongde's plan. He is no more familiar with this area than you are. Poor, what's more, the biggest advantage of attacking when your branch is marching is that if you get good things, you can take them away directly. This king is very interested in your equipment and craftsmen!"

...

The corners of Jiang Qi's mouth twitched, the King of Bohai is really good, he can talk about such a conspiracy so frankly, and he can't help laughing at himself: It's a pity, it's a pity, I, Jiang Yiqu, met such an opponent, and I was not wronged. When Yuan Gong met such an opponent, It's not wrong to lose.

Jiang Qi came back to his senses, looked at the sharp sword in his hand, then gave Liu Qing a cold look, and ordered: "Follow me to fight and take back the camp!"

Liu Qing looked at Jiang Qi who had made up his mind. The more decisive the enemy army was, the more he admired him. He was a good man of a big man. It would be a pity to kill him directly!

"Jiang Qi, wait a moment, I have something to say, would you like to hear it?"

Jiang Qi led the troops to rush forward for a few feet, and he reined in the horse's reins when he heard the King of Bohai's words.

"What else can I say?"

Liu Qing pondered for a while and asked, "Do you have a dream?"

Jiang Qi was taken aback, wondering what the hell kind of question this is, he didn't understand for a moment, his head flicked, it was full of question marks.

"Or if you ask this way, you will know more clearly whether you follow Yuan Benchu ​​for the sake of glory and wealth, or to make contributions, or just to do the things of a courtier."

Jiang Qi thought for a while, aren't these all the same?

Since it is under Yuan Shao's command, it is natural to act as a courtier and make contributions to the lord, and of course he also hopes that he will go higher and higher, that the Jiang family will get better and better, and that fame and glory will come as they should.

"Naturally, it's both." Jiang Qi said.

"Yuan Shao is just a reckless official who is good at setting up the emperor and acting perversely. If you follow him, you will not end well. Even if you die for him one day, you will not be honored as a hero. On the contrary, it is called helping the tyrant to do evil. , will be stigmatized for thousands of years, and you will die if you die, but the Jiang family will bear the infamy for life and life."

Liu Qing refuted Yuan Shao first, and then said the serious consequences. Seeing that he was seriously lost in thought, Liu Qing continued: "This king is the orthodox prince of the Han Dynasty. Today, the emperor will call me uncle, and now I am Dahan Sheji. To fight, rely on Yuan Shao's rebellious ministers and traitors, An Neng can stop me! Now all the soldiers under your command have been captured by this king. If you are willing to surrender, I can guarantee that they will still be under your command, and if you go back to Yuanying, the whole army Yuan Shao will not tolerate you even if you are destroyed! Why don't you consider this king's proposal?"

"Hehehe!" Jiang Qi suddenly sneered, "Since the whole army is wiped out, including me, why do you see Duke Yuan!"

You are very brave.

Liu Qing felt very headache when Jiang Qi was soft and hard, and if it didn't work, Liu Qing could only capture him first, and then slowly do ideological work.

Similarly, Jiang Qi is not a member of the gentry who is tied to Yuan Shao's interests. If he can get it back, he should try his best to get it back.

Just as Liu Qing was preparing for a battle, Jiang Qi suddenly asked again.

"Are the craftsmen under Yan Si still alive?"

Jiang Qi's sudden question aroused Liu Qing's curiosity.

"This king treats craftsmen with all kindness. Now that the world is in chaos and the people are displaced, skilled craftsmen should contribute to the construction of the country. How can they make murderous weapons for the rebellious officials and thieves!"

Jiang Qi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was relieved.

Liu Qing infers that under the person named Yan Si, there are people Jiang Qi cares about very much, either brothers, fathers or uncles.

"Ban Ming, go and ask who Yan Si is, and then bring all the other craftsmen to me!" Liu Qing raised his voice, deliberately letting Jiang Qi hear him.

Sure enough, when Jiang Qi heard Liu Qing's words, his expression changed immediately.

Because on the way back, he found that Yan Sizhan was dead, and there was no corpse of a craftsman at the scene. Obviously, they were all captured by the King of Bohai.

Among them, there is a craftsman, Jiang Qi's father, Jiang Hui.

"Harm!" Jiang Qi sighed, and said to the soldiers beside him: "Jiang's death is not a pity, but my father has fallen into the hands of the King of Bohai, and I want to exchange my life with the King of Bohai for my father's life. Bohai King's opponent, let's disperse!"
