[Three Kingdoms] After crossing, I opened the sick and weak main road line

Yanzhou, Dongjun, the black mountain bandits who had just plundered the villages and towns roared away. The bandits who were used to burning, killing and looting completely forgot that they used to be law-abiding farmers. Far.

All the men in the village died tragically by the knife, and the surviving women, children and the elderly screamed every day and crawled out of the pile of corpses, looking numb at the burned ruins of the fields and houses.

The same scene happens almost every day.

In the Dongjun government office, Cao Cao sat in the study and looked at the map, with red eyes hating himself for being so incompetent.

During the process of the Kwantung Allied Forces' campaign against Dong, he was defeated and ridiculed by others. Later, he recruited troops and stationed in Hanoi. He did not want to participate in the intrigues within the Kwantung Allied Forces. Whether those people fought or ran had nothing to do with him. Even if the Allied Forces fell apart and became a mess, he would To continue to fight against Dong Zhuo in Hanoi.

However, before he could cheer up and chase Dong Zhuo to death, the old thief died at the hands of others.

The court's explanation was that Situ Wangyun and Duting Hou Lu Bu received the emperor's secret order to kill the old thief in Meiwu, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that Lu Bu is definitely not someone who is willing to listen to the emperor's words.

Wang Situ might have planned to kill Dong Zhuo for the sake of the court, but Lu Bu didn't have enough interests in front of him, so he couldn't take the initiative to turn against his nominal foster father.

Although Dong Zhuo was defeated and left Chang'an, the emperor had been hijacked by him to Chang'an, and all the government orders in the world came from him. The two of them are righteous father and son. Dong Zhuo can give what the court can give, and Dong Zhuo can give what the court can't give. Lu Bu was so This is the reason for simply killing Ding Yuan and switching to Dong Zhuo.

The imperial court used Lu Bu to remove Dong Zhuo for his meritorious service, moved Fen Wujun, Yitong Sansi, and made him Marquis Wen. He didn't think these official positions could impress the Wushuang general who had already grown his appetite.

Immediately afterwards, the imperial court issued another imperial edict, giving the post of prefect of Zhongshan, which had been vacant for two or three years, to an unknown countryman.

Wang Yun did not take the credit for getting rid of Dong Zhuo, but was so generous to a little-known countryman, which was abnormal enough. Later, Lu Bu took his soldiers and horses to Zhongshan together, which showed that Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo. He listened to the emperor's secret order, but it was the credit of the new Zhongshan prefect.

Yuan Huan, whose name is Anting, did not go to the Lu Nu official office after leaving the capital for Zhongshan, but went to the Yuan Mansion in Anguo. He was so undisguised, what else could he not see?

Yuan Shao is self-confident and proud, and Cao Mengde is also a proud person. He has no control over Yuan's family affairs, and he has no right to point fingers. Yuan Benchu ​​only cares about competing with Yuan Gonglu, so why should he remind him?

Based on his understanding of his friend, if he said it, he might still be stained with fish.

Yuan Shao was short of ideas, he wanted to help the Han family and restore the peace and tranquility of the people, so he couldn't spend his time under Yuan Benchu's hands. However, he was short of food and grass, and wanted to feed the army, so he could only return to Yuan Shao's side.

A month ago, the black mountain bandits Yu Po, Bai Rao, Sui Gu and others led more than [-] people to attack Dongjun. Defend against black bandits.

Heishan bandits are numerous and powerful, but their soldiers and horses can't resist at all. He wanted to ask Yuan Shao for help, but Yuan Shao only represented him as the prefect of Dongjun, replacing Wang Gong's position, and the soldiers and horses did not have any support.

Seeing that Dongjun was about to turn into a hell on earth under the ravages of Heishan bandits, he had no choice but to send someone to Anguo Yuanfu to try his luck.

He knew that the elder brother of the Yuan family had brought a lot of things from Meiwu to Zhongshan, so he didn't ask him to send as many soldiers and horses, as well as some food and grass to support him.

As the saying goes, a golden horn and a silver edge have a grass belly.

Yanzhou is located in the heart of the world, and it can be affected anywhere in the place of the Fourth World War. It has been nearly ten years since the Yellow Turbans raged. Jizhou, which was the first to rise in the Yellow Turbans, was not affected much. The land of Jizhou was not disturbed, and Yanzhou was beaten into a sieve, not because he disliked Yanzhou, but because it was too difficult to defend this place.

The land of the Four Wars is also a land of martial arts. If he has strong troops, horses and powerful forces, not to mention Yuan Shao's military force, if half of the power is in his hands, he can use Yanzhou as a base to calm the world.

But he didn't.

The Yellow River is not enough to make Yanzhou as good for defense as Yizhou and Yangzhou, and the surrounding mountains are not as good for defense as Jingzhou. The great plain is flat, and the cavalry can fly thousands of miles when they come. Let him use three to five thousand soldiers and horses who lack food and clothing. To defend such a place that is easy to attack and difficult to defend, even if his grandson is born again, he will be helpless.

But behind him are the folks in Yanzhou, and if Dongjun can't keep it, his hometown Chenliu will also suffer. Even if it's not for Yanzhou, not for Chenliu, but for his own small family of Cao Mengde, he can't back down.

The shadow of the candle was shaking in the study, Cao Cao squeezed the space between his eyebrows, got up and stretched his muscles and bones, looked at the sky outside and asked, "Zi Xiao, how long has Zi Lian been away?"

"It's only been a day and a half, and it's still early." Cao Ren saw him come out, and brought porridge that had been warmed several times over for him to drink. There was not much food and grass in the army, so food should not be wasted. Although it didn't taste good after being heated several times, Doing extraordinary things in extraordinary times, my cousin can make do with a drink, "Zhongshan is so far away from Dongjun, and it takes two days to make an express round trip of [-] miles. Cousin, don't worry."

"Bai Rao and others plundered villages and towns. We don't have enough troops, and there is nowhere to defend them. If they continue to be arrogant, Dongjun will be robbed sooner or later. Why don't you make me rush?" Cao Cao hated He punched the wall with his fist, raised his head and drank all the porridge in the bowl, with the same fierce expression as before, "Have another bowl."

Cao Ren:  …

OK, OK.

Seeing that his cousin was in a bad mood today, he gave up Cao Zilian's share to give him an extra meal. Eating more might improve his mood.

There is not much food and grass in the army, and I wish I could save a grain of rice. Jizhou is rich. Cao Zilian went out to rescue soldiers this time. Tighten your belt and get by.

How can you fight if you can't eat enough?

Outside the official office, Xia Houdun walked hurriedly, covered in blood, and came straight to the study without having time to change clothes.

"Brother, Yuan Rang is back." Cao Ren came back with the porridge. He saw Xia Houyuan coming in a hurry with sharp eyes, and hurriedly passed the porridge over to urge him to finish it. He handed the empty bowl to the guard at the door and came back immediately, "The situation How about it?"

Cao Cao wiped the rice grains from the corners of his mouth with a silk cloth, kicked this insignificant brat aside, and took two gulps from the water bottle before recovering.

Xiahou Dun stopped in his tracks and gave them an indescribable glance. After being so disturbed by them, he was not in a hurry. He asked someone to bring the cloth towel basin directly to the door of the study, and replied while cleaning, "Temporarily blocked the black bandit, but our Food and grass will not last long, if there is no reinforcements after half a month, not to mention Dongjun, the entire Yanzhou will not be able to survive."

Before he came here, he thought that Yanzhou, as one of the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty, would have some family background even if there were constant wars these years, but the facts proved that he was still too naive.

The officers and soldiers in Yanzhou counties are not even as good at fighting as the recruits they recruited. Their recruits who have been trained for less than a year can fight the enemy bravely when they go to the battlefield. Jun didn't talk about resistance, but thought about running away first.

Most of the thieves on the opposite side are carrying farm tools. They are regular troops equipped with knives and guns. The two sides should be afraid of the opposite side when fighting. Why are they running!

Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan led troops to defend against the Black Mountain bandits these days, but they were not treated by those bandits, but were pissed off by the soldiers on their side.

Can be regarded as knowing why Liu Dai, a Yanzhou shepherd, was able to die on the battlefield under the harassment of a group of thieves.

The brothers around Cao Cao who started with him were not meek. Xiahoudun was already the best-tempered group, but now, no matter how good-tempered he was, he couldn’t hold back such a toss. He was thrown out with a cloth towel.

Cao Ren wiped the splashed water on his face, and moved to the side without any trace, "Don't worry, don't worry, Cao Zilian will be back in two days at most, maybe he can really bring back tens of thousands of reinforcements."

"Are you hungry and stupid?" Xiahou Dun simply wiped off the blood on his body, threw the dirty cloth towel back into the basin, raised his hand and touched the guy's forehead to see if he had a fever. How many soldiers are there, even if Zi Lian can move the former prefect and all his men over here, instead of counting on the soldiers, it is better to find some way to get some food from Yuan Benchu."

"Don't mention this matter again." Cao Cao's face darkened, thinking that there was no news from Cao Hong, he snorted and gritted his teeth, "Unless it is absolutely necessary, I will never ask him again."

Cao Ren patted his hand on his forehead, lowered his head and muttered in a low voice, "Then we still have to ask for food."

"Cao Zixiao!" Cao Cao looked over with pity, and Cao Ren ran out in fright, "Brother, is he not full? I'll bring you another bowl of porridge."

Xiahou Dun rubbed his stomach, looked up at Cao Cao, left the man sulking in the study, and followed him to the kitchen to find something to eat.

He can't stay in the official office for too long, Miaocai is still guarding in the big camp, and the black mountain bandits outside will call again at some point, their soldiers and horses have no skills at all, so they can only guard wherever they meet, bad luck If the black bandit took advantage of the loophole, the entire village might not be left alive.

Black bandits can burn, kill and loot to support war, they can't do such outrageous things, what the hell is it all about!

Cao Cao watched them run away cursingly, rubbed his throbbing head, and went back to continue studying the map.

After he was proclaimed as the prefect of Dongjun, he changed the Dongjun government from Puyang to Dongwuyang in the northeast of Puyang. This place is closer to Jizhou and borders Weijun in Dongjun. The thief led to Weijun, but Yuan Benchu ​​didn't respond if he didn't believe it.

As night fell, a faint mist shrouded the city, and the ruins and the remaining sparks in the distance looked even more gloomy in the darkness. The homeless people crowded into the hastily built huts, and the little doll was crying in fear in the darkness. The cries spread to the distant military camp, faintly and faintly, making the soldiers standing guard outside the camp tremble.

I don't know how long it took before Dongfang finally turned gray again, and the soldiers on guard were stiff. When the soldiers on shift arrived, they breathed a sigh of relief and went to the bonfire to warm up with stiff hands and feet.

At this moment, the sound of charging suddenly came from not far away, and the soldiers in the camp reacted very quickly. Big hooves.

Xia Houyuan who hurried out to check the situation:? ? ?

what's the situation?

Has the black bandit been able to equip cavalry?

In the morning light, a tall general who is far above ordinary stature is riding a scarlet horse to charge in the battlefield. Fang Tian's painted halberd is unstoppable, charging at the forefront with extraordinary momentum. The black mountain bandit who attacked during the shift change was terrified.

It turned out to be Lu Bu.

The fighting situation intensified, the murderous aura was fierce, and the smell of blood spread far and wide.

Xia Houyuan reacted and rode his horse over to meet them. Most of the soldiers were still in the camp. The situation was unclear at this time. He didn't know whether Lu Bu was an enemy or a friend. However, judging by the way he killed the Black Bandits, he shouldn't make things difficult for them.

The bandits and bandits Lu Bu suppressed in Zhongshan changed their expressions. The bandits who hadn’t been suppressed for a while knew that there was a demon coming from Zhongshan. They all dragged their families and ran away to other places. Taihang Mountain is so big, where are they going to be bandits? It's all the same, Zhongshan is a place to stay, if you stay for one more day, you may hang your head in front of the cottage.

Seeing that there would be no banditry in Zhongshan, Lu Fengxian was still worried that he would have nothing to do in the future. It happened that their master asked him to lead troops to support Yanzhou.

The unparalleled general riding on a tall horse seems to have infinite energy to squander. Fang Tian painted a halberd to provoke a bandit leader, and his mouth was not idle. Credit, those who are not behind the former will be killed without mercy."

The lord trusted them and sent them out. Zhang Liao's eyes turned red with jealousy. God knows what that kid will say in front of the lord when they are not around. The lord is soft-hearted. What if we don't send them out?

"Boys, follow me—kill—"

There are fireworks everywhere, and the sound of horseshoes is chaotic.

The cavalry has a great advantage over the infantry. Unless they meet the heavy armored soldiers that can defeat them, they are almost invincible. First.

Lu Bu rushed into the crowd with two thousand Bingzhou iron cavalry, and won the battle that they should not have fought without any suspense like chopping vegetables and cutting melons.

Xia Houyuan stopped at a distance of two feet from him, looking at the imposing and tall general, even though he felt that this man's character was not very good, he had to admit that there are many generals in the world today, and no one can match him, "Xia Houyuan, see Too warm."

Lu Bu narrowed his eyes, raised his arm to wipe the blood on his face, looked the man up and down, shook his arm and said, "Yu Du and others sent troops to Dongwuyang, and Cao Mengde ordered that Dunqiu soldiers don't have to go back to defend." , directly attacking the Black Bandit camp in the Taihang Mountains from the west.”

As he said that, he threw a jade token over there, which was to prove that what he said was not nonsense.

Xia Houyuan:? ? ?

He really didn't quite believe this man's words, Yu Du had already hit Dongwuyang, and they didn't talk about returning to defense, but went straight to the opponent's lair, wasn't it really a joke?

But the jade badge is indeed real, so don't you really care about the situation in Tobuyang?

Just when he was struggling, there was another sound of horseshoes, and Cao Hong followed up out of breath, and gave Lv Bu an indescribable look. He knew why the former prefect asked him to pay more attention before he came out. Who can stand this hot temper ah!

Lu Bu didn't care about their petty thoughts, let the two of them talk in a whisper, stretched himself and waited for them to discuss it.

The lord said that Sun Jian, Marquis of Wucheng, might also come to help. The last time he fought Sun Jian with Hu Zhen, he gave him a lot of convenience. If Sun Jian was not an ungrateful person, he should have come to him to thank him.

Sun Wentai is known as the Jiangdong Tiger, and he didn't have a hearty fight in the last battle. When he solves the Black Mountain bandit this time, he may have a chance to fight.

It was his luck, Sun Wentai, to be able to fight against a fierce general like him. You must know that other than chopping vegetables and cutting melons on the battlefield, he would not easily fight against unfamiliar people. I'm too lazy to hold back my strength and compete with others.

Sun Wentai is not young anymore, and he is not as resistant to beating as Zhang Wenyuan. If he accidentally makes a mistake, he will be wronged.

With such a meticulous heart, he, Lu Fengxian, is really a kind person! !
