Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Yiyang County is a strategic place in the lower reaches of Hunan where Changsha is governed.

Huang Zhong's and Liu Pan's troops in Liu Biao's army camped in the north of Yiyang, while Huang Zu's water army was stationed in Dongting Lake. They could support the two troops at any time, and they could also go south directly along the Xiangshui River to invade Linxiang.

In response, Sun Jian also sent heavy troops here.

Cheng Pu and Huang Gai stationed troops on the banks of the Xiang River, while Sun Jian led Wu Jing and Sun Ce stationed troops in Yiyang to confront Huang Zhong and Liu Pan.

Now that Han Dang and Zhu Zhi have taken Yichun, with two more steps, Yuzhang County can be taken, and Yiyang said that he only needs to block the offensive of Huang Zhong and Liu Pan.

For several months, Sun Jian focused on defense, and occasionally took the initiative to send troops to attack Huang Zhong and Liu Pan's camp. , and a longbow is superb. A hundred steps away, arrows piercing the heart abound. Although Liu Pan's personal combat power is not outstanding, he is not afraid of death in battle. The morale of the soldiers is particularly high. The result is often a lose-lose situation.

Similarly, Huang Zhong and Liu Pan also faced the problem of not being able to win quickly. Not only did Sun Jian have many powerful generals, but he was also famous for breaking captives. His son, Sun Ce, was even more brave than Huang Zhong. Force is not under oneself.

As a result, the two sides have been at a stalemate for a long time.

At the head of Yiyang City, Sun Jian looked ahead from a distance. On his left and right sides, standing were Wu Jing and Sun Ce.

"Father, Uncle Han has captured Yichun, why did you order them to stop marching?"

"Bo Fu, your father's decision is justified. How is your grandson's art of war?"

Sun Ce replied: "It's not true, it's too convoluted, I can't understand it, isn't fighting just to rush to kill!"

"This is impossible. In the past, the overlord was so brave that he could fight a thousand with one. In the end, he was defeated from time to time by Liu Bang, who was good at ingenuity. He could not conquer the world with brute force alone." Wu Jing taught, "So, the book of war should be read You have to read it, besides, this is still your ancestral book of war!"

Sun Ce didn't want to get entangled in the art of war, so he changed the subject and said to Sun Jian, "Father, why don't you let me go to Yuzhang to help Uncle Han?"

"Didn't you say you wanted to defeat Huang Zhong? Now that Huang Zhong is undefeated, how did you change your mind? Marching to fight a war is just child's play?"

"Isn't it impossible to play a game here for ten days and half a month!" Sun Ce said sullenly.

Sun Jian looked into the distance, which is exactly what Sun Ce said.

"Father, if you give me Yuzhang, I promise to win Yuzhang. After taking Yuzhang, I will march to Lujiang to defeat Lu Kang and let him experience it. I am amazing!" Sun Ce said with his fists clenched.

In Sun Ce's immature cognition, his father was heroic, and the person who could be regarded as the lord by his father must be very remarkable, and that person, that is, Yuan Shu, was defeated in Lujiang and died.

Sun Ce's thinking is very simple, he just wants to defeat Lu Kang and prove himself!
After hearing Sun Ce's words, Sun Jian couldn't help thinking of Yuan Shu's death, and couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

Yuan Shu, who used to be mighty, dominated Luoyang and swept the Central Plains, but he never expected that when he met the King of Bohai, he would be defeated like a mountain.

How can Lu Kang be so easy to mess with? Behind him is the King of Bohai.

However, Sun Ce has such a fighting spirit, and he is very pleased. Perhaps, it is time to give him enough space to grow freely.

Sun Jian smiled and said, "Is there any contact with your friend in Lujiang?"

"Father is talking about Gong Jin. Some time ago, I received a letter from Gong Jin, saying that Lujiang is undergoing land reform. The Zhou family has a lot of land, which has been forcibly taken away by the county government. For this reason, there are complaints among the Zhou family."

"This is where the power of the King of Bohai lies. Wherever he goes, he will destroy the dead, and then establish a new order on top of the ruins. This is the case in Jizhou and Bingzhou. Now, the whole north is probably like this." Sun Jian said.

"Wentai, can the King of Bohai really be an enemy of the world?" Wu Jing asked.

"The world? Who can represent the world?" Sun Jian asked rhetorically, "The clansmen of the Han Dynasty? The powerful gentry? Or are you and our military warriors? Anyway, they are not ordinary people, and their survival is a problem. How can they become the world?"

Wu Jing digested what Sun Jian said, but before he finished digesting it, Sun Jian said again: "It is difficult for the gentry to become popular. Remember, how can the gentry resist when the second party is imprisoned? Perhaps, only the powerful and powerful can overthrow this situation. A corrupt court."

"Wentai is careful!" Wu Jing reminded in a low voice, this is rebellious words.

"Father said it well!"

There was a burst of applause in the distance, and it was Sun Quan who was walking slowly.

"Zhongmou, why are you here?" Wu Jing smiled.

"Mother Wu ordered me to call Bo Fu." Sun Quan said.

Sun Quan walked between Sun Jian and Sun Ce and looked up at them.

After looking at it, he said, "Uncle Wu, what my father said is correct. Since the Yellow Turban, all the states in the world have been governed by themselves. Yuan Shao has overstepped himself and established himself as the Son of Heaven. Yuan Shu even called himself the Son of Heaven. Sweeping the floor, it's not what it used to be."

Sun Jian smiled and looked at his youngest son with admiration. Contrary to Bo Fu, Zhong Mou likes to read books and is knowledgeable.

"What Zhongmou said is reasonable, but the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven after all." Wu Jing said.

"No way! Uncle Wu has heard that the Zhou Dynasty was Shang, the Han Dynasty was Qin, and even in the middle of the Han Dynasty, there was Wang Mang who replaced the Han. A new dynasty was born, and finally the power was seized by Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu. What did you rely on? It is a family and a powerful force."

"Zhongmou, how do you know this?"

"I read it in books, doesn't Uncle Wu read books?" Sun Quan asked back.

Embarrassed for a moment, Wu Jing replied, "Uncle has been poor since he was a child, and he couldn't even eat enough, let alone studying. If we hadn't met your father, my sister and I would have starved to death on the way."

Wu Jing said, thinking about the ambitions of Sun Jian and Sun Quan, my sister really saw him right!

Moreover, Sun Quan understood this at a young age. It seems that the person who inherited Sun Jian's ambition must be Zhongmou.

This boy Bofu knows how to practice martial arts, he is straight minded.

"Bo Fu, follow Zhongmou!" Sun Jian said.

Sun Ce and Sun Quan went down the tower.

"After Bo Fu left, I transferred Cheng Pu to Yiyang. I want to organize a counterattack. In this battle, Huang Zhong and Liu Pan must be taken. The remaining Huang Zu is nothing to worry about. At that time, our army can freely enter Yuzhang !” Sun Jian said.

"Wentai's good idea!" Wu Jing boasted.

Sun Ce, who had not gone far, was very excited when he heard that his father was going to attack Yuzhang in a big way. He could show his skills. He said to his younger brother, "Zhongmou, brother is going to fight!"

Sun Quan shook his head, "Isn't brother always fighting?"

"It's going to fight somewhere else." Sun Ce corrected himself.

"Oh, I'm going to Yuzhang."

Sun Ce gave Sun Quan a meaningful look, and he knew it!
Sun Jian and Wu Jing watched their backs as they left, and listened quietly to their conversation.

"Bo Fu and Zhong Mou, one is brave in martial arts, the other is exquisite in thinking, Wentai, you really have two good sons!" Wu Jing praised, with a sour tone, thinking of his mediocre son Wu Fen, Wu Jing It's hard to understand.

Having children should be like Sun Bofu and Sun Zhongmou!

Outside Xixian County, the sky was full of dust, and a large group of cavalry arrived outside the city. It was Xu Huang and Li Jue who came.

Gao Shun went out of the city to greet him personally, and was very happy to see Xu Huang. The two fought side by side several times, and they were already old comrades in arms.

"Brother Gongming, you are here, and the journey is smooth?"

"Everything is fine, it's strangely smooth, it seems that Liu Biaojun's eyeliner has stopped following." Xu Huang said.

"General Li." Gao Shun saluted Li Jue again.

"Trapped in the camp, General Gao, it's better to meet him than to be famous. When we meet today, Li Jue will be ashamed of being trapped in the camp!" Li Jue praised.

"The general's reputation is too high. The Xiliang archers under the general's command are excellent in riding and archery, and the arrows are flawless!"

The three of them flattered and laughed and entered the city together.

"Liu Biao's army stopped spying because they have already learned about our army's movements. Jingzhou naturally got the news of the Zhanglu chaos in Hanzhong. Based on our army's march, Liu Biao can naturally judge that our army is heading for Hanzhong." Gao Shun said.

"Father Xiao, General Li and I have just arrived here, and we are not very familiar with the surroundings. Let me tell you about the next step."

"It's going to be late today, the two armies will rest for the whole night first, and tomorrow they will march to the west city, but..." Gao Shun paused, looked at Xu Huang, and said: "I have been observing the map of Hanzhong for several days, and found that there is an important road in Hanzhong, which is Xi County. , the south of Xi County is Shangyong, and the east of Shangyong is Fangling, and Fangling goes straight to Xiangyang to the east. I guess, if Liu Biao knows about the change in Hanzhong, he will definitely take the opportunity to send troops to occupy Fangling. Even Shangyong!"

"Father Xiao means that Liu Biao cannot occupy this way?" Xu Huang asked.

"Fangling is approaching Xiangyang, which is not bad, but Shangyong's terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is a must for military strategists. I don't think it can be obtained by Liu Biao, because our army entered the city secretly at night to avoid being exposed in advance. , so no troops were sent, but now that you are here, tomorrow our army will attack the west city in a big way, I thought we could separate a small number of soldiers and horses to attack Shangyong and occupy it before Liu Biao!" Gao Shun introduced.

"How about Shangyong's protection?"

"I have already investigated. Liu Yan's army is mainly active in Yizhou, and Zhang Lu's army is only in the Nanzheng area, so there are only a few hundred county soldiers in Shangyong, and it is easy to get."

"So, tomorrow we will dispatch a thousand Qingqi from our army to go to Shangyong! Zhiran, what are you laughing at?" Xu Huang suddenly noticed that Li Jue was laughing non-stop, wanting to laugh and hold back at the same time. .

"Haha, General Gao really has a unique eye. When I received Mr. Wenhe's order, Mr. Wenhe said that after entering Xi County, the most important thing is not to occupy Xicheng, but to occupy Shangyong!"

"Oh? Mr. Wen He actually said that?" Gao Shun asked curiously. It is really amazing that he knows the pros and cons of this place before he arrives here.

"Father Xiao, don't forget, my lord has said that Mr. Wen He's talent is not inferior to that of Feng Xiao's military division. From this point of view, the power of Hanzhong is already under Mr. Wen He's control!" Xu Xu Akira laughed.

"I dispatched [-] archers from the army to go with Gongming's cavalry for the convenience of defense, lest Liu Biao's army come to attack the city." Li Jue said.

Gao Shun nodded. He had never met Jia Xu, but Jia Xu was far away in Nanyang, and the layout he made was exactly the same as his field investigation. It was amazing!

"One thousand five hundred people is enough!" Gao Shun said.

The three of them entered the county government together, Gao Shun took out the map, and the three of them discussed the strategy of marching again.

The next day, according to the agreement, Xu Huang and Li Jue sent troops separately. Xu Huang selected a stable general from the army. As the chief general of 500 people, he set off first and headed for Shangyong.

After the three armies were prepared, they marched forward along the Mianshui River.

Xicheng is only 180 miles away from Xi County in a straight line. If you travel along the river, the terrain is flat. If the cavalry rushes, it will only take two days.

Two days later, the army arrived at the gate of Xicheng, but the imagined guards did not appear. The magistrate of Xicheng greeted them at the gate of the city, holding the official seal.

The three of Gao Shun looked at each other in blank dismay.

The very dangerous Guancheng West City was taken down without a single soldier?

"Could it be that Mr. Wen He said that he was not in a hurry to go to Xicheng, because he expected that there would be no war in Xicheng?" Gao Shun asked Li Jue.

How did Li Jue know that Jia Xu didn't go into details, only that Shangyong was more important than Xicheng, but he didn't expect that the so-called unimportant Xicheng was unguarded, and the county magistrate led a few officials directly at the city gate. Welcome to the army.

However, in fact, Zhang Lu did not give up on Xicheng. He sent a general to guard Xicheng. Reality, but Xicheng is Guancheng, so he sent his general Yang Ang to guard Xicheng.

But something happened on the way.

It was an accident, Zi Wu said.

After Zhang Ning received Liu Qing's military order, he assembled two thousand Baibo cavalry in just half a day and rushed to Jingzhaoyin day and night. In fact, when Liu Qing's military order arrived in Nanyang, Zhang Ning was almost outside Ziwu Valley.

Zhang Ning is almost pinching the time, calculating the time it takes for the Bohai King's order to arrive in Nanyang, and the time it will take for Nanyang to send troops into Hanzhong. What she has to do is Chen Bing Ziwu Valley. When the Nanyang Front Army attacks Xicheng, break out of the valley , Killed to the rear of the west city, forming a pincer attack.

Guancheng is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the most fatal flaw of Guancheng is that it is the most taboo to attack from front to back.

However, things were not as Zhang Ning expected. Yang Ang, who was preparing to enter the West City after she entered the Ziwu Valley, got the news halfway, so he ordered Chen Bing to stop Zhang Ning at the Ziwu Valley crossing, and he wrote another letter to Zhang Lu to let him Another person was sent to garrison the west city.

At this juncture, the three of Gao Shun, Xu Huang, and Li Jue were killed.

And West City is still an empty city.

After occupying the west city for a day, the scouts sent reported that along the Mianshui to the west, Zhang Lujun was stationed at the Ziwu crossing.

The three immediately began to discuss.

"What does Zhang Lu mean by not stationing in Xicheng, but stationing at Ziwu Road Crossing?" Li Jue asked.

Gao Shun stared at the map, looked at it for a long time, and then said: "Maybe there is an army of the lord in Ziwu Valley, maybe this army was originally stationed in the west city." Gao Shun guessed.

He didn't even think of it himself, but he guessed it right.

"I only know that Ma Teng stationed troops on the Xiegu Road to contain Zhang Lu's army, but I didn't expect that the lord also buried chess pieces in the small Ziwu Valley Road, which is easily overlooked. It is really careless!" Li Jue sighed.

"Since that's the case, what are we waiting for? The cavalry rushed over and let the friendly army out of the valley. I want to see who moves so fast and is ahead of us!" Xu Huang said.

Gao Shun replied with a smile: "Gongming, if it weren't for his extraordinary speed, I'm afraid we have a tough battle to fight in Xicheng, we should thank you!"

"Then what are you waiting for, send troops quickly!" Xu Huang yelled loudly.

"Hahaha!" The three laughed in unison.

"Okay, fall into the camp and leave 1000 people to defend the city, and the rest of the troops will rush to Meridian Valley!"

Gao Shun replied.
