Mixed in the Three Kingdoms as a magic stick

After listening to the report, Li Jue thought, "Is this really the case?"

It is a big taboo for military strategists to build a camp based on grass, and it can burn everything as soon as the fire is set off.

The guard swore, "I saw this with my own eyes."

Li Jue pondered for a while, and Guo Si, who had just heard about this, came over carelessly, and urged: "This is a good opportunity sent by God, why not send troops to have a try!"

After staying in the customs for so many days, he had to eat a lot of humiliation every day. From morning to night, he was scolded bloody by turns. If you scold him back, you will inevitably feel a little guilty because you dare not go out to fight.

After this, everyone was furious, and morale almost fell to the bottom.

A victory is urgently needed - a big victory is the best, and a small victory is also a timely help - to boost the morale of this slump.

Especially now that the grain horse that was supposed to arrive last night has not been seen for some reason, the atmosphere in the army has become more and more restless and turbulent.

How could Li Jue not know?

"Whether it's true or not, it's time to send out troops," Li Jue said, "It's just that we need to think about how many people will be sent out and who will lead them."

The reason why he hesitated was because of what was written in another military newspaper that had just been sent.

As we all know, there are eight important passes in the periphery of Luoyang, namely Hangu in the west, Taigu in the southeast, Guangcheng in the south, Yique and Yiyuan in the southwest, and Xuanmen, Mengjin and Hebei near the counties on the east. Xiaopingjin.

At the moment when Yan Qing's troops first moved, Dong Zhuo dispatched eight groups of heavy troops to garrison these places and hold them firmly.

Dong Zhuo was frightened by the grandeur, and he didn't know the details of the allied forces' actions.

Yan Qing knew it all too well, so he never thought of taking advantage of his weaknesses and avoiding his strengths to disperse his forces and attack in multiple ways, but concentrated his main force and attacked one by one.

Just like a thousand-mile embankment, as long as a small hole is broken at the beginning, it will be out of control afterwards.

Of course, on the bright side, we can't garrison a single place, so as not to make Dong Zhuo take precautions.

Therefore, the other seven roads seem to be vast, but they are just blindfolded tricks to hang Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses. Only those who attack from the seemingly most difficult line of Sishui Pass are the absolute main force that is well-deserved.

However, in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, everything was powerful, but the ability to keep information secret was the worst. From the Yellow Turban Uprising, to Li Guo's struggle for power, to the emperor's clothes and belts, all of them were broken because of leaks, which led to the failure of success and hatred of Jiuquan.

In order to ensure the smooth implementation of this plan, Yan Qing simply kept it a secret from his own people. Except for a few confidantes, no one knew. During the confrontation, anyone who looked at it felt that something was going on, but they didn't expect that Yan Qing never expected them to contribute.

On Dong Zhuo's side, Xu Rong, the Zhonglang general who was sent to guard Taigu, was a ruthless character who defeated Cao Cao and defeated Sun Jian in history.

He is good at fighting by nature and dares to fight. He is not at all shy like other comrades who are frightened by Yan Qing's terrifying speed of going straight down to Sishui Pass in a day. Instead, he is always looking for opportunities and taking the initiative to attack.

After observing these days carefully, Xu Rong noticed that Wang Kuang, the prefect who was fighting east and leading the newly conscripted Taishan soldiers, was more like a showman than a showman. The next day they sent out troops outrageously, and they beat Wang Kuang to pieces without hesitation, and fled in despair.

Wang Kuang has a total of 2 people, while Xu Rong only has [-] people, but after fighting for only one day, Wang Kuang only has dozens of Qingqi left to protect him and escape, and the rest are all scattered or killed in the chaos. Killed, or reduced to captives and incorporated, Xu Rong's luggage was all cheap.

The news of this victory was quickly spread, and it played an encouraging role in encouraging people's hearts. Dong Zhuojun's army was greatly boosted and his confidence was greatly increased when he heard about it.

The Kwantung Allied Forces are indeed a mob!

At most, relying on Yan Qing's posture to prop up a bluffing tiger skin, the rest of them are still an out-and-out loose sand inside, nothing to be afraid of.

After seeing this clearly, Dong Zhuo's heart brightened, and he quickly sent an order to Li Jue, telling him to take down Yan Qing's department at all costs.

In his view, as long as the undefeated golden body of the Yan Qing army is broken, this bullshit alliance of sheep and tiger skin will lose its backbone, and it will collapse and fall apart immediately.

What Dong Zhuo thought was indeed not bad, but it had to be based on the premise that the Yan Qing army was defeated, so Li Jue, who was also on the front line, made it very clear-not to say that he would hurt the enemy one thousand and self-damage eight hundred, as long as he could Calling Yan Qing hurt, no matter how many people are willing to fight, it is worth it.

It's just that Li Jue has received the battle report from the branch line, but Yan Qing has not received any news about the annihilation of Wang Kuang's entire army.

Although he has deployed people in various places to secretly follow up, but after all, he does not pay much attention to them, and since they are scattered, the strength of the follow-up is not strong.

The army was defeated, Wang Kuang was also slightly injured, and he was psychologically hit. He felt ashamed and frightened at the same time.

However, Yan Qing's spies were obstructed by enemy soldiers on the way back, and they would not be able to get away for a while, which caused a delay in delivery, which prevented Yan Qing from adjusting his plan in time and making adequate preparations.

Yan Qing didn't know that he had suffered a small loss invisibly.

Originally, according to his plan, the best result would be to be able to take advantage of this inconspicuous loophole to successfully trick out the garrison guards who couldn't shrink back, annihilate one of them, and use it as an appetizer before the big battle.

Li Jue did indeed move.

But it was not what Yan Qing thought, only sending out a small group of tentatively to take advantage of it, but changed from the usual cautious style, and came a blockbuster.

As soon as they came out, [-]% of the troops were mobilized, almost in full force.

It was night, and the door opened quietly.

The light of the fire pierced through the thick night, like a long river, and the elite Xiliang cavalry who once accompanied Dong Zhuo to fight against the Qianghu and challenged the Jincheng Border Chapter swept away the uselessness of these days, and filed out in an orderly manner.

The horseshoes stepped on the wet and slippery ground that had only had a few spring rains. It was dull and dense, and there was a rumbling sound like thunder rolling down, and then there were waves of shouts and killings shaking the sky and the earth, which completely awakened the people in the tent.

The lieutenant generals of the Yan Qing army, after all, had received secret orders, and had been prepared to wait. At this time, it was not like other princes who were in a hurry, noisy and chaotic.

But after Yan Qing saw the huge momentum, although he didn't show it on the surface, he was actually quite surprised in his heart.

Lü Bu held Fang Tian's painting halberd, took the lead and stayed at the front.

Seeing soldiers coming in a steady stream, and after a long while before the momentum slowed down, he knew that the situation had changed and he should not act rashly, so he immediately sent someone to notify his lord.

He usually likes to rely on his high martial arts skills, and he is used to walking freely in the enemy's battle, but he is not blindly arrogant.

For example, at this moment, he knew that he must not be careless, so he quickly reined in his horse and returned to the formation, roaring angrily: "The enemy army has already left the city - after beating the drum to warn, the whole army is ready for battle!!!"

"Feng Xian!" Yan Qing raised his voice and asked, "How many enemy soldiers are there?"

There was a lot of voices at the moment, and there was a distance of several tens of feet between him and Lu Bu, so when he asked this question, he didn't expect to get an answer.

But Lu Bu seemed to have a few more pairs of ears than ordinary people, or he was particularly sensitive to his voice, so he turned his head suddenly and replied loudly: "No-down-six-ten thousand!"

Sixty thousand!

Yan Qing was surprised by this number, looked at the three military advisers who were also surprised, and asked: "Do you guys have any idea?"

Guo Jia pondered for a while, and said straight to the point: "I'm afraid something went wrong elsewhere, and it will hurt us."

Xun You said, "It's for our army."

Yan Qing was silent for a moment, then said: "Could it be that Huangfu Song and Gai Xun joined him to serve?"

Guo Jia: "It's not impossible."

Liu Ye's focus was a little different, and he immediately ran to the construction of siege equipment that he had been dreaming about recently, and blurted out: "Not good! Zhuo Jun's generals pay more grass, I'm afraid they want to destroy Equipment, quickly reinforce the defense of the rear battalion to prevent sneak attacks!"

Yan Qing calmly said: "Don't panic. Unless they can fly over the eaves and walls, they won't be able to get around. And if they attack from the front, even the rear battalion will suffer. Doesn't it mean that the whole army has been smashed?"

"If it really gets to that point, even if we keep a few more siege machines, it won't make any sense."

Liu Ye was confused just now because he was concerned, and said shamelessly, "I'm making my lord laugh."

Yan Qing smiled, and said a few simple words of comfort: "At least it's your painstaking efforts for so many days, and it's about the imminent siege. It would be strange if you weren't nervous."

What he was really curious about was how powerful a new hole card Li Jue held in his hand, so that his attitude changed drastically, from passive defense to confident active attack, and when he launched it at the first moment, he was still so strong and ruthless. Reckless posture, insisting on deciding the winner?

There must be some amazing support.

The reason Guo Jia and Xun You just said is also very possible, but whether it is true or not will not be verified for a while.

Yan Qing temporarily shelved this confusion, and immediately issued an order.

Officially ordered Lu Bu and Sun Jian to be the vanguard, Zhang Liao led the left army, Gao Shun led the right army, Xun You was in the rear army, and he personally sat in the middle army, not retreating an inch, and immediately fought back.

All the generals took orders and left.

Fortunately, when he arranged the various forces to set up camp, he put his mind on the location of the garrison: let his army occupy all those who are close to Hulao Pass.

Yan Qing thought about it. Overall, his army was not as experienced as the Xiliang soldiers, but he was also well-trained and brave. The most rare thing was that he was united and firm, obedient to orders, and he was the absolute main force of the allied army.

If there is any sudden unexpected situation, the closest ones will be able to detect it at the first time, and can also make a counterattack at the first time.

It's better than deliberately arranging some useless straw bags outside: when these people are frightened and scattered, won't they be implicated later?

Looking at the sidelines, he was also happy and relaxed: Yan Qing, who has many soldiers and brave generals, wants to gain a selfless and elegant name. He is willing to be the shield that is destined to bear the brunt of the brunt. Why not do it?

Of course, Yan Qing is not ignorant of these hidden petty minds, but she doesn't care about them either.

And his foresight really came in handy this time—the Kwantung princes behind were in a mess, and the only ones who were orderly and immediately prevented an effective counterattack, except for the Yan Qing army at the forefront, that is, the extremely The humble Cao Cao army is gone.

Cao Cao also kept looking in that direction, and knew the strength of the troops. After seeing Yan Qing had settled down, he came over and asked in a neither humble nor haughty way: "Master Sikong, do you have any orders? Although Cao Cao has few soldiers, he is willing to obey orders."

Although Cao Jun's soldiers were not many, they were neat and orderly, and their military appearance was solemn. Looking at the other allied forces who were still in chaos, the contrast was so stark.

Yan Qing smiled gratifiedly, stretched out her hand naturally, touched Cao Cao's hard back and said, "With Meng De's words, I won't be polite..."

After unceremoniously entrusting Cao Cao, who came to ask for orders, with a heavy responsibility, Yan Qing's eyes narrowed slightly as he listened to the constant noise in his ears.

Even if they were caught off guard, they were not the ones who received the most direct impact. The degree of panic is too exaggerated, right?

Did another accident happen?

Yan Qing couldn't help stopping, and after thinking for a while, he casually lifted the hem of his robe, but he didn't go to the central army immediately, but asked Guo Jia to take his place for a while, and then strode towards the camps of other troops to check up.
