Chapter 397: The Princes Gather Sour Dates, All the People in the Capital Swear to Be Teachers!
Wen County.

Xi Zhicai received the secret letter from Mujing, paced back and forth, deliberated for a long time, and finally made a decision.

"Mo Bao!"

"exist!"

"We are preparing to withdraw our troops!"

"Should we withdraw now?" Mo Bao was the captain of Jingping's Fourth Battalion.

"Ok!"

Xi Zhicai said: "Within five days, we will withdraw our troops. We must gather the main force and prepare to withdraw from Hanoi to face the Kwantung Allied Forces!"

"What about Wen County?"

"Don't worry about it, since you can't kill him, then be a favor!"

Xi Zhicai said calmly.

"I'm going to get ready!"

Mo Bao obeys Xi Zhicai's words.

Xi Zhicai wrote a letter, and then someone sent it to Huai County. It was a letter sent to Yanmen, the magistrate of Huai County, and Sima Lang, the eldest son of the Sima family who was currently gathering troops in Huai County.

In less than half a day, the letter arrived in Huai County.

"What is Xi Zhicai's intention?"

In Huai County, Sima Lang held the letter, his eyes gloomy like water.

The letter said it was very good, the exchange, with all the lives of the Sima clan, to exchange two conditions, first, to ensure that within one year, the Shangdang army will not set foot in Hanoi, and second, Huai County must be stationed Jing Pingjun.

The two conditions are not whimsical conditions, and with the ability of the Sima family, they can get more.

But Sima Lang couldn't believe it.

He has already experienced Xi Zhicai's cunning.

As soon as he heard the news of the fall of Sima's family, he went south heavily, gathered troops, and prepared to attack Wen County at night. He thought that they knew Wen County well and could cooperate with the city to break the situation.

But it was because they were too familiar with the enemy that they underestimated the enemy and led the king into the old man. The two thousand young men gathered together lost more than half of the battle, and almost all of them were wiped out.

"Eldest son, from now on, no matter what, you have to try it!"

Yan Men is a relative of Sima, and he is loyal to the Sima family: "It is not impossible to attack Wen County, but it will take time to gather troops, and it is urgent, so there is no guarantee that Xi Zhi will not make the decision to slaughter our Sima people!"

"I'll contact my father right now and let him persuade Zhang Yang!"

Sima Lang nodded, no matter how big the matter is, it can't kill the Sima clan: "As for Huai County, I will give it to him. As long as my Sima clan is safe, I will always get it back!"

"I can prepare to withdraw from Huai County and hand over Huai County to them!"

Yan Men nodded.

……

On the border of Shangdang and Hanoi.

Zhang Yang's army is stationed.

"Patriarch Sima came at the right time!" Zhang Yang said with a sarcastic smile on his lips, "You were the one who contacted me to go south to meet Wang Kuang, and now you are the one who prevented me from entering Hanoi."

"A certain family knows that Zhang Taishou has resentment towards me, but a certain family can't help it!"

Sima Fang spread his hands, and said helplessly: "As far as I know, Prefect Zhang has already met Zhang Liao, the general under Mu Jing's command, but didn't the last prefect Zhang also choose to give up Chaoge and retreat to this point?"

"I just returned a favor to Zhang Wenyuan. From then on, I will wait for life and death!" Zhang Yang said coldly.

In the past, he was the same general of Ding Yuan, no matter whether Lu Bu or Zhang Liao, Ding Yuan loved him deeply and took him in as his adopted son, but he could only serve as a subordinate. Once he made a mistake, with Ding Yuan's principles and determination, he wanted to The one who was pushed to the end was Zhang Liao who persuaded Ding Yuan to let him pass the test.

He has to pay back this favor.

Of course, there is another reason. He is unwilling to confront Zhang Liao's Shuofang camp head-on. He knows the combat power of Shuofang camp too well. The stronger the battle, the stronger the fighting spirit is, which is rare in the world. After the bloody battle, even if he can wipe it out, he will pay a heavy price. the price.

So he retreated.

"I came here today to ask for a favor!" Sima Fang said.

"The Shangdang army cannot go to Hanoi!"

"What do you mean?"

"I hope that the soldiers of the Shangdang will attack Hedong directly and enter Luoyang directly from Hedong!"

"Hedong?"

Zhang Yang squinted his eyes: "With my Shangdang soldiers, it is difficult to break through the defense of Hedong!"

"If Ma Teng's Xiliang army joins you, are you confident?"

Sima Fang said flatly.

"It's possible!" Zhang Yang's eyes lit up, flashing a bright light.

"Kandong is the main battlefield. Countless armies of princes have been assembled. The imperial court must be here with heavy troops. Now, only by breaking the situation from the west can we wipe out the bandits and welcome back the emperor!"

Sima Fang's three-inch tongue is quite capable, but he persuaded Zhang Yang.

……

……

February [-]nd, the Spring Dragon Festival, the dragon raises its head, the sun shines, and the ice and snow melt.

The breath of winter began to gradually fade away on this day.

The breath of spring began to come quietly on this day.

It also started from this day, which completely kicked off the largest decisive battle since the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Suanzao County.

This county town has a radius of hundreds of miles, and you can see camps everywhere. The voices of countless soldiers are full of dialects, and it is prosperous and lively.

"Changsha prefect, Sun Jian, enter the city!"

"Guangling prefect, Zhang Chao, enter the city!"

"Rear General, Yuan Shu, enter the city!"

"..."

Every day, princes came here to meet the alliance, and these princes followed each other all the way. When they came, the momentum was mighty, and the flags were flying in the wind.

The princes seeking animal husbandry came from an imperial decree of Qin Wang, and the princes who came to the alliance this time were definitely not only the eighteen roads mentioned in history. There are more than [-] princes.

If you add the soldiers and horses brought out by the county magistrates, there are at least hundreds of princes.

Naturally, not all of these princes' troops were in Suanzao, most of the troops had already rushed to Guanzhong from all directions, and besieged Guanzhong to death from several directions.

dong dong dong! ! ! ! !
In Suanzao City, on the school grounds, drums were booming, and the sound gathered and overlapped, forming sound waves that penetrated to the nine heavens.

On the top of the high platform in the school grounds, the leader of the alliance, Yuan Shao, was full of vigor and vigor: "Everyone, we gathered together today to fight against the shepherds. The shepherds are the remnants of the Yellow Turbans. They have brought trouble to the court, ruined the world, and disrupted people's livelihood. This crime cannot be forgiven." , Today, we pledge our blood as an alliance, we will not destroy the shepherd bandits, we will not destroy Luoyang, and we swear we will not go back!"

"Don't destroy the shepherd thief, don't destroy Luoyang, and swear not to go back!"

"Don't destroy the shepherd thief, don't destroy Luoyang, and swear not to go back!"

"Don't destroy the shepherd thief, don't destroy Luoyang, and swear not to go back!"

"..."

A mighty momentum erupted.

After the morale was boosted, the next arrangement began. The alliance of dozens of princes looked strong and strong, but it was too messy. If they couldn't make good arrangements and give full play to their strength, they would be defeated.

"Boshui Pass must be breached!"

A group of princes sat down to discuss strategies.

"But it's not that we can't keep an eye on Sishui Pass. Sishui Pass is a natural danger, and it's also a shortcut to the capital. We can't avoid it, but we can also go around from the east and west sides. At least we can give the capital a shock!"

"That's right. Sishuiguan is the main battlefield, but it's easy to defend and difficult to attack. It's not as good as throwing too many troops!"

"Boshui is known as a tiger's prison, and if a tiger can hold it firmly, our strong attack may not be effective!"

"It would be a good thing if we could divide the troops to the left and right!"

The atmosphere among the feudal lords was pretty good. With Yuan Shao as the leader and Yuan Shu behind, Cao Cao mediated. Even if there were some conflicts between them, it was not the time to play it out. Because of Luo Yang's pressure, they had to unite as one.

"Everyone means, how to fight!"

Yuan Shao was very humble. As the leader of the alliance, he had enough prestige, but he might not be able to make all the princes submit to him. Knowing his knowledge, he naturally had to learn to retain his majesty.

"Attack Hanoi in the north and enter Henan in the south!"

Someone uttered a strategic slogan.

"Hanoi can go directly to the capital. Although there is a pavilion on the Yellow River, it is not difficult to cross the river after the spring. If you enter from Hanoi, you will be able to catch it by surprise!"

"Henan Yinnai is in the hinterland of Gyeonggi. Although Sishuiguan blocked our main force and pinched our throat, from the south, there is also a chance to break the game!"

"..."

After discussing for three days, you said something and I said something. It was very chaotic, but the embryonic form of a strategic deployment has come out.

"Leader, this is the prefect of Changsha, Sun Jian, Marquis of Wucheng, quite brave, and all under his command are soldiers from Jiangdong!"

A few days later, Yuan Shu personally introduced Sun Jian to Yuan Shao.

"Brother Wentai came up from Changsha, you have worked hard!"

Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes slightly, and took a look at this strong man. Seeing the alliance, he was just being polite to each other. Now that he met privately, he could see clearly that this general was indeed brave. According to Yuan Shu's introduction, I am afraid that this beast has already joined Yuan Shu's command.

After all, Yuan Shu is a direct descendant of the Yuan family, and has more confidence in the Yuan family than his collateral line. Now that Yuan Shu has won Runan and Nanyang, in terms of military strength, he is as strong as himself, and it is not impossible to win people to rely on.

"The lord is polite. It is Wentai's fortune to fight for the emperor. Wentai asks for orders, and is willing to enter Guanzhong first as the vanguard!"

Sun Jian begged for his orders.

The Jiangdong army wanted fame, and Yuan Shu wanted merit, so they had already negotiated and were ready to win the vanguard battle.

"Since Wentai has such ambition, a certain family should be able to accomplish it!"

When Yuan Shao heard this, he did not object.

The previous attack on Sishui Pass in the cold winter months was only a battle of morale, but it also consumed a lot of troops of Cao Cao and his direct descendants. Therefore, they were able to secure the leading position of the alliance in the first battle, but the troops under their command needed to rest.

At this time, it is a good thing to have Sun Jian as the vanguard.

Within a few days, the princes from all walks of life set out one after another, from north to south, along the boundary of the east of the Guandong, opened a nearly thousand-mile long battle line, as if like a net, began to cover Hanoi in Henan, wrapped in Luoyang City.

……

……

At this time, a swearing-in meeting broke out on the outskirts of Luoyang.

Eastern Suburb Plain.

There are 20 troops stationed in the school field, and a high platform is built. On the high platform, hundreds of civil and military officials of the imperial court gather one after another.

The young emperor stands in the middle.

His eyes were heavy, looking at the darkness under his pupils, but there was a hint of desolation in his heart.

This is the army of the great Han.

But it was not Liu Bian's army.

With a main force of nearly 20, most of them are the Southern Army. The Southern Army has been expanding its army crazily during this period, reaching a strength of [-]. Although the formation is the most chaotic, the momentum is fully displayed.

Then there is the Violent Bear Army, the Violent Bear Army is Mushan's direct lineage, Nanyang Xeon has only [-] soldiers and horses, but the formation is neat, the flags are intertwined, and they exude a ferocious aura, which can shake the sun and the moon.

In addition, the Xiliang army, the main force of Xiliang, except those who are still guarding Sishuiguan, and Hedong is recuperating, the rest are here. Niu Fu's Feixiong army is in the middle, tens of thousands of troops, showing the wildness of Xiliang. up.

"Your Majesty, the Guandong is a little small. The bandits Yuan Shao and Cao Cao raised troops to cause rebellion. They betrayed the court and His Majesty. This is a capital crime. The nine clans should be exterminated. Our current dynasty is weak, with insufficient soldiers and horses, and low morale. I beseech Your Majesty, I will personally conquer and defeat you." If you are a little younger, give me a bright and sunny day!"

On the high platform, before Mu Shan bowed his head before the young emperor, the sound waves were like thunder, piercing through the nine heavens.

"I implore Your Majesty to personally conquer!"

Da Sima Dong Zhuo also bowed his head, respectfully begging
"I implore Your Majesty to personally conquer!"

"I implore Your Majesty to personally conquer!"

"I implore Your Majesty to personally conquer!"

The soldiers on the high platform bowed their heads, and with a black aura, they imitated into the air waves and rushed straight to the high platform.

Liu Bian's calf was trembling, even though he had seen turmoil before, he had also seen boundless blood on the battlefield, but he was so suppressed by the 20 army, his nerves almost burst, and only murmurs remained in his mouth: "Quite! "

He knew that Mu Shan was going to go to war, so how could he stay in the capital, so it was understandable to bring her along.

He looked at all the civil and military officials, and the more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became.

This is completely intimidating.

Confused, Liu Bian was no longer afraid, and he stepped forward: "The world is the world of the big man, and no one is allowed to rebel. Today, since a younger generation dares to violate the prestige of my big Han court, I will definitely defeat you!" They, punish their nine clans, all the lords are willing to go out with me!"

He wants to take advantage of the situation, even if he knows that these soldiers and horses are not his own, he still wants to use this general situation to defend the majesty of the monarch, even if he is a puppet, he is also the head of the Han family, and he will never allow anyone to tarnish the majesty of the emperor.

"Let's go!"

"Let's go!"

Although the soldiers are their own masters, they have to admit that the emperor is still respected above their heads. Even if the emperor is like this, they naturally cheer up.

This actually boosted morale a lot.

Mu Shan was next to him, although he was a little surprised, but he didn't stop him. Liu Bian's prestige could not be cultivated overnight, but he benefited from boosting morale in the name of king.

After a swearing-in, it is time to prepare for the battle. Within three days, soldiers and horses will leave the capital one by one and rush to the battlefield in the Kanto. Whether it is the Nanyang Army or the Xiliang Army, this battle is about wealth and life. No one dares to despise.

……

The night is cool and cool, in the Changqiu Palace.

After the lingering lingering death, the white jade body relaxed in the storm, and lay quietly on Mu Shan's arms, gently stroking his chest with his small hand, and said faintly: "You must argue." Going out?"

"I don't worry about him!"

Mu Shan said very directly: "I don't look at him. One day, we will fight each other. Only when he is under the nose will he dare not turn against me!"

"But the battlefield is dangerous, Aijia is worried!"

"I will watch him!" Mu Shan gently patted her smooth back, and said in a low voice: "Since I promised you, as long as I don't die, I will definitely save his life and his throne !"

"Aijia is not only worried about him, but also about you!"

The woman lay on his chest, using the heat of her body to drive away the coldness for him, and a faint voice sounded: "You promise Aijia, no matter what, you must come back alive!"
