Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 400 : Xuande sends troops

Two more today!

There are mountains of rice and money piled up in the wealthy merchants of the aristocratic families, and the people don’t know what to eat after eating. Guo Da is used to it. Every time he plunders a place, when facing these powerful families, he feels an indescribable joy after the plunder.

Yingchuan County fell, and Liu Bei was in a hurry. He summoned his generals and advisers to discuss countermeasures.

After many years, Liu Bei also had his own small group, headed by general Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, one is his brother, who is loyal enough, and the other two are brave enough to be undeserved, they are a banner in the army, which can make soldiers more Good return to heart; there are relatively few civil servants, only Sun Gan, and he is responsible for all internal affairs. Sun Qian was still the Yellow Turban bandit who besieged Beihai. Sun Qian agrees with each other in the city, otherwise, Liu Bei's counselors will be blank.

After occupying Yuzhou, Liu Bei also realized the lack of talents. Governing the place is different from fighting. Liu Bei is also half-level. Although Sun Qian is not good at governing the place, he was also driven by Liu Bei. Fortunately, Liu Bei still has the clan of the Han family. Fame, to a certain extent, made the aristocratic families in Yuzhou draw closer to him. In the big Han, the clan of the Han family is still very popular.

"Second brother and third brother, Gongyou, our army occupies the land of Yuzhou, and Guo Da led the Yellow Turbans to wreak havoc, what should we do?" Liu Bei said.

Looking at Liu Bei's calm expression, Sun Gan nodded slightly, and Mount Tai collapsed on his face without changing his color.

"My lord, the disaster of the Yellow Turban has affected the people. Wherever it went, the people lost their farms and houses. They had no choice but to join the Yellow Turban Army. As a result, the power of the Yellow Turban is growing. My lord should make plans early, otherwise the people of Yuzhou will It's dangerous." Sun Gan said.

During Liu Bei's tenure as an official, he widely practiced benevolent government and was loved by the people. It was precisely because of this that Sun Qian followed Liu Bei.

Liu Bei frowned slightly, "Gongyou, there are about 10,000+ Yellow Turban soldiers, and our army is only more than [-]. How can we fight against it? Why not ask Liu Jingsheng from Jingzhou and Cao Mengde from Yanzhou for help."

Sun Qian vetoed: "My lord, this matter must not be done. Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Cao Cao of Yanzhou are both fierce tigers. They drive wolves into tigers. Where should my lord go? On the other hand, the Yellow Turbans have a large number of troops. Li, every time the Yellow Turban goes, it will loot the powerful families and help the people, when the family hears this news, and the lord sends troops to guard the city, and everyone is not allowed to enter or leave without authorization, what will the family members in the city choose?"

A gleam flashed in Liu Bei's eyes, and he secretly applauded in his heart. He didn't expect Sun Qian to have such a clever plan, so he immediately laughed and said, "What Gongyou said is true!"

"Brother, it's just a little yellow scarf. Let me, Lao Zhang, lead 5000 people to take Yingchuan back." Zhang Fei said loudly, seeing Liu Bei's praise of Sun Gan, he felt a little unhappy for some reason.

Liu Bei said slightly angrily: "Third brother, don't be rude, go to the army to attack and plan, and listen to what Mr. Sun has to say."

Sun Qian glanced at Zhang Fei apologetically, and continued: "My lord, I have heard that General Jia Rong used [-] troops to resist Han Sui's [-] rebels, and then regained Jincheng in one fell swoop. The method he used was to mobilize the people in the city. Defend the city, strengthen the city defense, and let the rebels collapse without a fight. The humble officer expected that the Yellow Turban army would come from a long distance, and the food and grass would be insufficient. As long as the defenses were strengthened in the counties along the way, they would be able to resist the Yellow Turbans. long."

Liu Bei glanced at Sun Gan carefully, clapped his hands and said, "In Mr. Sun's opinion, third brother, you lead five thousand soldiers to Chen Guo, and second brother, you also take five thousand soldiers to Runan County. , You only need to stick to the city, and you must not act recklessly, unite the people of the aristocratic families in the city, and work together to defend the city, it is a great achievement."

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu bowed in unison: "No!"

"Especially third brother, you have a reckless temper. If you lead an army alone, you should listen to the opinions of your generals and don't act on your will." Liu Bei warned.

"Brother, don't worry, as long as Huang Jin dares to come, he will definitely be killed."

There are two counties and four kingdoms in Yuzhou. Among the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty, the territory is small. Now that Yingchuan has been lost, the situation seems a little critical. After Guo Da got Yingchuan, he sent troops to station at the southern border of Chen Guorun, and then began to recruit soldiers. , the troop strength jumped to [-]. Of course, the newly recruited soldiers were poorly trained, and the weapons in their hands were also the most inferior. I am afraid that even being responsible for patrolling the city seemed a little insufficient.

Guo Da is no longer good at it.

Thinking of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu's bravery, Liu Bei heaved a sigh of relief. As long as he sticks to the city, with his own means, he will soon be able to train an army again, and the embarrassing situation in Yuzhou will also ease by then.

Yingchuan County was destroyed in January, and Cao Cao and Liu Biao naturally learned that since offending Jia Rong, Jingzhou's business has become sluggish, and the number of merchants from all over the world has gradually decreased. Gao, it provided an opportunity for speculative businessmen, and the nobles in the city began to have opinions on Liu Biao.

"Guo Da's Yellow Turban Army broke through Yingchuan County, causing the people to live in dire straits. As a servant of the great Han Dynasty, I have the duty to drive out the bandits." Liu Biao, the leader, showed a compassionate posture.

Kuai Liang understood and bowed: "My lord has the common people in his heart. It is really a blessing for the great man, but the Yellow Turbans in Yingchuan are led by Guo Da. There are 6 elite Yellow Turbans in his hands. They occupy the city. I am afraid that it will be difficult to win. It is better to wait for Liu Bei and the Yellow Turbans to lose both. At this time, send troops to rescue again, one is to show the benevolence of the lord, and the other is to take advantage of the trend to occupy Yuzhou."

The generals and counselors in the tent are all Liu Biao's confidantes, and the contents of the secret discussions will not be spread.

Cai Mao snorted coldly and turned his head away. Since the incident in Xiangyang City, the Cai family and the Kuai family were no longer united as before, and were dismantling each other. Liu Biao was secretly happy but also worried.

"Mr. Kuai, if Liu Bei sends someone to ask for help, what should we do?" Liu Biao asked.

"If that's the case, it's easy. Then Liu Bei won Yuzhou, and he had only more than [-] elite soldiers under his command. At that time, he sent a general to take advantage of the situation and occupy Yuzhou. What can Liu Bei do?" Kuai Liang laughed.

"Hahaha..." Liu Biao also let out a hearty laugh.

"I've heard that Liu Bei is a member of the royal family, so I'm afraid this is inappropriate." Zhang Yun said.

Kuai Liang said with a smile: "Liu Bei claimed to be a relative of the Han family, but the Holy Majesty did not admit it, and his Yuzhou was also obtained by taking advantage of the chaos. His strength is not good, no wonder others."

Liu Biao laughed loudly and said, "Just in my opinion!"

Civil servants and military generals under his command responded one after another, and the army began to move closer to the border of Yuzhou.

The Yellow Turban occupied Yingchuan County. Cao Cao sent his general Cao Ren to lead [-] soldiers to guard Chenliu County. Chenliu is the foundation of Cao Cao and cannot be lost. Cao Cao owns the land of Yanzhou and Qingzhou. There is not much left, so the coveted heart of Yuzhou has to be put away. Cao Cao has also experienced the madness of Guo Da leading the Yellow Turban soldiers. To be honest, he does not want to fight such a madman.

The next day, Cao Cao told the situation in Yuzhou in front of all the officials.

Under Cao Cao's secret control, Emperor Han issued an edict to go to Yuzhou, and comforted Liu Bei with good words, saying that he is a hero of the Han Dynasty if he defends the territory, etc., all of which are empty words. It still made Liu Bei happy for a long time. He is a clan member of the Han family. Since he joined the army, he has always wanted to serve the big man and restore the country and the people.

As if echoing Guo Dayao in Yuzhou, the Heishan Yellow Turbans in Jizhou took advantage of the situation and attacked the city all the way.

Guo Da occupied Yingchuan for only two months, and the food and supplies in the army could not support it. However, Chen Guo was still guarded by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's army from Runan, so it was difficult to capture. Fei Nasi, leading hundreds of soldiers, dared to fight into the Yellow Turban army alone, which is unbelievable bravery.

"General, Zhang Fei is guarding the city, and he dare not leave the city to fight? Our army's food and grass are gradually running out, what should we do?" In terms of strategy, Guo Fei is one of the most wise generals in the Yellow Turban Army.

"Furthermore, Zhang Fei has the bravery of a man who fought against Lu Bu outside Hulao Pass." Guo Fei looked worried.

Guo Daodao: "Zhang Fei is just a warrior. He can be captured in one battle. Changping City has high walls and thick walls. It is a big problem. Order the soldiers to curse outside the city. When Zhang Fei is scolded, then Changping is still alive. The entire Chen Kingdom is in our hands, and Liu Bei is occupying the land of Yuzhou, but he has no strong troops to guard it."

"General, Liu Biao's army has appeared around Yingchuan County, and Cao Ren's [-] troops are guarding Chenliu County. If they take the opportunity to attack us." Yu Dan showed worry.

Guo Da laughed and said: "Brother Yu, you are worrying too much. Liu Biao and Cao Cao are not Yi Yi's people. Liu Bei has few soldiers, so why don't you send someone to ask for help? Cao Cao and Liu Biao also want to take the opportunity to occupy Yuzhou. How can Liu Bei give in willingly? If we win a big victory, the troops on both sides will stand still, and Liu Biaokong has a hundred thousand elite, so he will only stick to his family property and attack secretly."

Yu Dan said: "Zhang Fei must have been entrusted by Liu Bei to defend the city. Our army lacks siege equipment, so it is difficult to capture it. Over time, our army will lose all its vigor!"

Guo Daodao: "Brother Yu's words are very true, please come up with a good strategy to defeat the enemy as soon as possible."

Yu Shan didn't quite agree with the style of the Yellow Turban Army. Wherever they went, it was barren, and they only knew how to destroy but didn't know how to protect it. How could such an army last long? In the meaning of assistance, in troubled times, the military power in your hands is the most important. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this world is no longer what the royal family says, but the princes of all walks of life who hold great power.

"Don't worry, general, I will try my best to find a way to defeat the enemy and get rid of our army's current situation, but the soldiers can't stop attacking the city." Yu Dan said solemnly.

After repeated battles, the Yellow Turban Army left behind basically elite troops. They fought in an orderly manner and dared to use their lives. The reason for the great service, as for the recently recruited soldiers, was also instigated by Yu Shan. When they attacked the city, human life would naturally become as cheap as a dog. He is not a pedantic person.

It’s the Mid-Autumn Festival, I wish you all a happy holiday, eat moon cakes and watch the moon, take a look at the cavalry by the way, support the cavalry, haha.
