Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Guangzong City official army camp.

Gunpowder smoke filled the distance, dust was flying, and a thousand cavalry gathered into a black torrent, and the four hooves of the horse galloped on the ground, making a shocking bang. Among the thousands of troops, the most powerful one holds a military flag with a big Li character written on it.

Lu Zhi led the elite of the Han army, so he had already noticed this cavalry, and Zheng Tong didn't dare to let this cavalry in because he didn't know the enemy or friend for a while.

Thousands of archers held longbows in their hands and arrow pots on their backs. They climbed up to the top of the army wall one by one in an orderly manner. cavalry unit.

And behind the gate of the village, soldiers of the Northern Army had already placed horses and antlers, and bought a second line of defense after breaking the gate. More than a thousand spearmen were behind the horses and antlers. The elite who had experienced the war were different. The hands holding the gun barrel are firmly placed on the horse, just waiting to attack.

Li Jue's eagle nose had deep eyes, and his beard circled from his lips to his chin. With his sunken eyes, he frowned when he saw the Han army's tight arrangement on the wall.

Stop!

The Xiliang iron cavalry has been practicing for a long time, and orders and prohibitions are imposed. After the horses galloped forward for a certain distance by inertia, they stopped in formation three hundred steps away from the military village. The effective range of the infantry bow is within three hundred steps, and the best The shooting range is within two hundred steps.

Go, pass on your identity.

Li Jue gave the same thing to the soldiers around him, and the soldiers galloped out of the army formation, and rushed all the way to a distance of dozens of steps in front of the army stronghold. The archer on the head must not release the arrow easily.

My school lieutenant is a general under the command of Taishou Dong of Hedong, and he was ordered by the emperor to take over the northern army.

Hearing these words, Zheng Tong stood on the head of the village and shouted to each other: Changing generals before the battle, do you have a token certificate?

The soldier took out something from his bosom, only to see that it was half a tiger made of copper and iron, divided into two parts from the middle, the soldier was holding half a tiger, with words engraved on the outside. This is called the Tiger Talisman for Dispatching Troops, and it is the certificate held by the ancient generals when they went out to fight. The generals hold half when they go out, and the monarch holds half in the country. When Lord Xinling rescued Zhao, he stole the tiger talisman from the king of Wei, so he was able to mobilize his troops.

Zheng Tong frowned and waved his hand.

The gate of the village could not be closed tightly, but a basket hung down from the wall of the village. A Han soldier sat in the basket and was hung down. He pulled it up, then knelt down on one knee, and presented Zheng Tong with both hands.

Zheng Tong already had half of the tiger talisman in his left hand, so he gently took it with his right hand, joined the two tiger talismans together, and pressed them hard, only to hear a click, and the two tiger talismans merged into one, turning into a tiger talisman.

The tiger talisman was successfully matched, so outside the gate of the village there are friends rather than enemies, so Zheng Tong ordered: Reject the horse antlers and open the gate of the village.

The archers guarding the top of the city put their bows and arrows back into the quiver, and the longbows were slung on their backs. The spearmen below put away their weapons and moved the horses and antlers to the two sides.

With an obscure creaking sound, the gates on both sides of the village slowly opened, and the solidly constructed military village was no longer a hindrance to the Xiliang iron cavalry.

Li Jue smiled and waved his arm. Cheers burst out from among the thousand cavalry, mixed with Chinese and Qiang voices, and then the thousand cavalry rushed into the Han army camp like wind. Dozens of personal guards were arranged to stand guard at the gate of the village, waiting to meet Dong Zhuo's follow-up army.

Zheng Tong and other generals of the Northern Army were waiting in the camp. The atmosphere in the camp was cold. After all, Lu Zhi was well-known all over the country, but this Dong Taishou had never heard of it. I heard that most of his generals and soldiers were of Qiang people, so the generals of the Northern Army also I don't like him very much.

And outside the tent.

Li Jue stood outside the gate of the camp, with dozens of guards motionless, when a gust of wind blew by, the cloak behind him suddenly fluttered, dust filled the air, and he couldn't help squinting his eyes.

drive!

After Li Jue's vanguard entered the camp, Dong Zhuo charged into the camp with a thousand cavalry. The Xiliang cavalry showed off their power, and all the northern troops around were dissatisfied.

On the other hand, Li Jue knelt on one knee, cupped his fists with both hands, and shouted: The last general, Li Jue, welcome General Dong Lang!

Dong Zhuo laughed. He held the horse's back with one hand in his prime, jumped off the horse, handed the horse to the soldiers, and helped Li Jue up with a smile.

Zhiran, let's enter the camp to discuss.

Li Jue retreated half a step secretly, instead of standing side by side with Dong Zhuo, the guards were obliquely behind him, and Guo Si gave him a push: Zhiran, now our Xiliang iron cavalry is very powerful.

Li Jue looked proud: Old Lu Zhi is getting old, and it's time for us to show off.

The two generals Fan Chou and Zhang Ji also laughed, followed behind Li Jue and Guo Si, the four generals wore armor and armor, held waist knives, followed Dong Zhuo like stars and moon, and swaggered into the camp.

The guards had already lifted the curtains in front of him, and Dong Zhuo broke into the camp with a smile on his face, and stood on top of the commander-in-chief with an air of self-importance.

The four generals stood beside Dong Zhuo, and Li Jue shouted, Appointed by the Son of Heaven, Governor of Hedong, Dong Zhonglang is coming, and the generals are still waiting!

Although Zheng Tong and others were dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo, they did not dare to disobey the emperor's order, so they had to shout together.

Meet the new General Zhonglang.

Dong Zhuo smiled slightly: The generals have worked hard, let's go down and rest.

As soon as this sentence was said, all the generals in the camp were stunned.

Dong Zhuo's new general, even if he doesn't make military plans right away, he still has to communicate with the generals, should we say a few more words? Why are you driving people away?

Zheng Tong walked out of the ranks with a strange expression: Does Zhonglang have anything to say?

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly: The generals have worked hard, let's go down and rest.

All the generals in the camp looked at each other, turned around one after another, and walked out of the camp one by one. The camp that was still full before suddenly became empty, and only Dong Zhuo, Li Jue and Guo Si were left.

Everyone, sit down!

Dong Zhuo was sitting in the handsome position, Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou and Zhang Ji laughed and lined up on the left and right.

My lord, we used to be in Hedong, and we couldn't afford to support so many soldiers. Now that you have been appointed as General Zhonglang, you have more than 10,000 people under your command, so you should give me some more.

That's right, now the lord is General Zhonglang, can it be compared with before?

Dong Zhuo nodded in satisfaction: That's right, these generals of the Northern Army are very proud. How can Dong use his troops to allow them to point fingers? Childish commander of the old iron cavalry, the three of you have given someone the right to command the Northern Army in the past few days. Come here, if the Northern Army doesn't listen to XX, won't this general Dong Zhonglang have no taste in doing it?

The four generals laughed loudly: What General Zhonglang said is absolutely true.
