Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty
Chapter 105: Shouzhou (1)
After Guo Shao received the Privy Council order to say goodbye to his family, he led his army out of Beijing.
He was very considerate of his subordinates, and after letting everyone divide the spoils, he arranged the positions of the generals in the name of the commander of the city. Some of the higher positions are temporary leaders, and they have been written as reports and sent to Tokyo’s pro-military guards and infantry divisions. However, the Ma Budu commander Li Chongjin and the Privy Council’s Secret Envoy Wei Renpu are in Huainan, so no one will approve them. , Only copy another copy to Huainan and give it to Li Zhongjin first.
The Majun Division and the Infantry Division of the Department of Guards are in charge of the Long Jie Army and the Tiger Jie Army respectively. However, the Majun Division and the Infantry Division are just titles, because the Long Jiejun and the Tiger Jiejun have their own cavalry and infantry, and the Long Jiejun cavalry are more powerful.
The draft is based on Li Chuyun as the commander of the first army, Luo Yanhuan as the capital of Yuhou; the former capital of the second army, Wang Zhang, as the commander of the capital (helped Guo Shao to win a crucial battle in Tangcang Town), Yang Biao Waiting for the capital, Luo Mengzi commanded the soldiers. Because of the death and serious injury of some low- and middle-level generals, other meritorious soldiers were promoted; Guo Shao directly appointed the commander...The right way is to share the wealth, but the key positions with military power, Guo Shao silently give them all To his cronies. Wang Zhang of the Second Army also said that no one on it was willing to work.
After more than ten days, the troops arrived on the north bank of the Huai River, and Guo Shao arranged for the troops to cross the river in batches from the pontoon bridge on the river.
Just entering July, the weather is still so hot. Guo Shao stood on the edge of the Huai River and looked back around. The endless wilderness, lush and green, the sky is blue and the river is clear, the Huainan Plain is really a good place in this era, not only conducive to farming but also convenient for transportation. It is completely different from what I saw in the Qinling ravines at the beginning of the year... No wonder the Emperor Zhou and Emperor Nantang fought to death, and the two sides did not hesitate to invest the power of the whole country to compete for this piece of land here.
The place where the floating bridge was built is no longer in Zhengyang, west of Shouzhou (now Shou County), but in Xiacai Town (today's Fengtai County, Anwei County) in the north of Shouzhou...the main road into this area, there is a very tall The spacious memorial arch, the letter "Xia Cai", I really don't want to know the name of the place. I heard that Zhou Jun’s pontoon was in Zhengyang, but how he moved to Xia Cai is unknown. Perhaps the emperor thought that none of the cities in the upper reaches of the Huai River had been captured, and that the terrain was too wide and could easily be attacked by the Tang army?
The pontoons in Xiacai are a bit particular. The Huai Shui River has a great curvature here, forming an upper shape of the "convex" character. Xiacai is at the top of the "convex". The north side of the river is open, and after crossing the river, it is narrow and long by the river.
Guo Shao led the army across the Huai River safely and without incident. The two sides of the Huai River in Xia Cai were all controlled and stationed by the Zhou army, and they were very peaceful.
But just after Huai Shui, Guo Shao's right eyelid jumped inexplicably...Humanity's right eye jumped violently, and he felt uneasy when he thought about it, and vaguely felt bad. Ever since the Taoist elixir cured the queen's illness, and contacted the Mai Taoist's fate about fate, Guo Shao had received a lot of modern education, and could not help but become more and more superstitious. He always felt that these mysterious things could not tell the truth.
With a faintly uneasy mood, Guo Shao led his troops down the Huai River south and along the road. In the afternoon, he reached the bank of a river with a stone arch bridge. This river flows from Chaohu Lake (now Wabu Lake) in the south to Huai Shui. It is called Feishui, which seems to be the place where the Battle of Feishui took place. Nowadays, the river is narrower than the Huai River. In some places, the water is shallow and you can cross the river by wading on foot. But there is a bridge or it is convenient to cross the bridge.
The people and horses are endless, the soldiers marching in front are neatly paced, and the sound of "Ka, Ka, Ka..." is very similar to the rhythm of a modern army.
Guo Shao looked up and saw that the stone arch bridge in front was a bit shaky. Thinking of the resonance phenomenon, he ordered the ministries to disrupt the queue and walk across the bridge randomly.
…Unexpectedly, at this moment, as soon as Guo Shao crossed the bridge, he saw a civilian with a number riding by the side of the road to watch. The official sighed when he saw Guo Shao's army in a mess. Guo Shao smiled and came forward to see him, greeting him, and when he asked, it turned out that it was the Hanlin scholar Dou Yi. People who don't know at all. But when Dou Yi introduced others, there was a person with him named Zhao Pu, which made Guo Shao feel as if he had heard of it... But Zhao Pu seemed to be an unknown person, and he didn't even introduce the official position. Guo Shao felt a little surprised. Suddenly, he didn't remember what was going on.
When Guo Shao saw Dou Yi sighing just now, he explained: "If you walk too neatly, you may collapse the bridge and cause useless casualties."
Dou Yi was speechless. Guo Shao had no words to argue, and somehow said to the Hanlin Academy that he had no choice but to give up, but he secretly sighed: It is terrible that a bachelor has no education.
Guo Shao then bid farewell to Dou Yi. At this time, the hustle and bustle of the south could be heard. Guo Shao looked into the distance and saw the smoky Shouzhou Tower in the depths of the wilderness. In addition to various noises, there are faint shouts of people.
Entering the battlefield so soon, Zhou Jun's battle line is really long, I heard that the forward has captured Chuzhou City not far from the Yangtze River, and the Huai River is still fighting.
At this moment, Guo Shao met another official who was in his fifties. He was like Dou Yi, dressed in official uniforms, and standing on the side of the road watching the marching army. This person has long and narrow eye sockets, a small hallow, full cheeks, a beard, and a tall stature.
Guo Shao rode his horse to the side of the road, and the man looked at himself with a smile. Guo Shao looked around, patted his forehead, and smiled: "Prime Minister Li!"
It turned out to be Li Gu, and Guo Shao felt familiar... Before that, he had only seen Li Gu in his life. Last year, on the way from Gaoping to Jinyang, Li Gu also rewarded Guo Shao with more than 20 horses.
"Haha!" Li Gu laughed loudly, "Guo has a good memory and a fate, after more than a year, you still remember the old man. But the old man is no longer the prime minister."
Guo Shao thought that when he arrived in Huainan, the first acquaintance he would meet was Wang Pu, but he did not expect it to be this unfamiliar Li Gu. Guo Shao was also happy when he met someone he knew, and he blurted out: "Haha, whoever treated me badly is easy to forget; whoever treats me well, but always remembers clearly! Li Gong rewarded me last year Twenty-odd military horses were very generous to me at that time, how can I not remember?"
"Good! Good!" Li Gu smiled, seeing Guo Shao's eyes more interesting. Probably the reason he blurted out the good and the bad.
Li Gu sighed again: "Through his military merits, he has really risen quickly. I haven't seen him for more than a year. It's really important not to treat each other with admiration for three days.
"Where is it." Guo Shao pretended to be modest. "Where is Gong Li now?"
Li Gu said, "Should be sentenced to the Shouzhou government. I am now mainly supplying military rations for the Shouzhou tribes and organizing ordnance expenses; I will also send people to nearby places to comfort the people and let the people settle their duties. I no longer bring soldiers. But these things are also very tricky. Soldiers are arrogant and sometimes indiscriminately killing innocents. Repeated prohibitions continue."
Guo Shao said hurriedly: "I will restrain my subordinates and prohibit them from burning, killing and looting, and not adding trouble to Li Gong." He said in his heart: If the money can be robbed and the spoils can be divided, what will everyone have to do to rob?
Suddenly, Li Gu was very confidant about Guo Shao, and then said in a deep voice: "The officials blamed me for delaying the fighter and almost convicted me."
Guo Shao didn’t think much, and said: “I’ve heard about Zhengyang. Li Gong is a prudent and cautious person, so he works every step of the way; but the officials are eager to win... just different ideas, I don’t think Li Gong What did you do wrong."
"That is." Li Gu felt his beard and agreed.
Li Gu said again: "By the way, the new garrison barracks for soldiers and horses are also arranged by me, so I am here waiting for the envoy Guo Du. I will go with you now. The fences of the barracks have been repaired, and the camp also includes a conscription. In a small village in China, the PLA can be located in the village, and there are many houses for people to live in, which is much better than tents."
Guo Shao hurriedly thanked: "That's really a good place, thank you for taking care of it."
"Haha, it should be." Li Gu smiled.
The group followed the army closer to Shouzhou City and came to the west of the city. Guo Shao observed all the way, the terrain of Shouzhou City is actually not that sinister: although it claims to guard the Huai River, it is not on the edge of the Huai River, and there is a vast flat area to the northwest from the Huai River~www.readwn.com~ even There are many rice fields in the middle. In the north of the city, the Chaohu Lake (now Wabu Lake) flows to the Huai River, the river Feishui. There is a water gate on the north, and three sides are relatively flat. The terrain is threatened on three sides and threatened by the water, which is really not dangerous.
However, the Shouzhou city wall looks very tall and has a very wide moat. It should have taken a lot of work to build the city.
Approaching a little closer, Guo Shao saw countless siege equipment erected outside the city wall. The moat was filled in several places, and some ladders were erected on the city wall. People with fire on their bodies were constantly falling down, and the city was dark outside. Smoke billowed, rocks and arrows flying in the air, surrounded by countless people on three sides. The noise and shouting make people’s ears “buzz” straight. On the road away from the city wall of Shouzhou, one after another Minzhuang carried the terrible wounded soldiers to this side, and there was a flow of people on the road.
At this moment, Guo Shao's scalp was numb, and he said in his heart: I hope I don't want to attack the city. It's too miserable.
If you want to come to the Tigers, the First Army and the Second Army of the Left Wing are two elite field soldiers who can fight in the Left Wing. They should not be caught up to climb the wall, otherwise it would be too wasteful. Thinking of this, Guo Shao feels a little at ease.
Guo Shao invited Li Gu to the barracks. Unexpectedly, Li Gu said: "I will send you food and prepare ordnance in the future. There are many opportunities to come and go. Now Guo Duzhi had better rush to see the officials at the Chinese Army Camp..." Li Gu whispered, "I just heard Secret report, Southern Tang Dongdu (Yangzhou) has no defense. It is estimated that the official will personally rush to Chuzhou to deploy a new campaign recently. If you don't go to meet again, you will not even be able to see the official in Huainan."
"Thank you Li Gong for reminding." Guo Shao didn't linger, and quickly asked about the place, and went to the Chinese army camp.
Entering the Yingmen, I met Wang Pu, and was gently reminded: The official wants you to attack Shouzhou City.
Guo Shao's face suddenly turned black, and he said in his heart: I'll take it!
