The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Vol 4 Chapter 60: 5 More tragic drum horns (Part 1)

I have a cold. I took a fluid infusion yesterday afternoon. My cough got better, and my nose was stuffy again. Maybe because of the medication, I was drowsy and confused. .+?(.+bsp;\s* Stronger section.

Most of the people on the high seat of the hall were county officials. Except for Zhu Jun, there was only one person who did not know each other.

Xun Zhen said in his heart: "Silver-printed blue ribbon, only those whose rank is more than 2,000 stone can wear it. This person must be the captain of the Northern Army." Colonel, than two thousand stones. Except for Wen Taishou and Zhu Jun, who were full of officials, this one had a silver seal and a blue ribbon. It can be seen that the army led by Zhu Jun this time should be mostly recruited Gyeonggi Zhuangyong and Sanhe Knights. There is only one school in the five schools of the Northern Army. Xun Zhen thought, "I don't know which battalion this school is from?" The five schools of the Northern Army were Changshui, Yueqi, Shesheng, Tunqi, and Infantry. The Changshui, Yueqi, and Tunqi were cavalry, and the cavalry was the cavalry, and the infantry were the armored soldiers.

He and Xi Zhicai knelt down in the hall and saluted to Prefect Wen, Zhu Jun and this captain.

Prefect Wen said in a low voice, "Get up! ... I don't need to introduce you, you should know that this is Duke Zhu, the commander of the right middle commander. This is Duke Wei, captain of the Yueqi School."

Zhu Jun and Sun Jian are little fellows from Yangzhou, but their accents are different. Although Sun Jian also said "calling", that is, the correct pronunciation of Yayan in Luoyang area, but the accents in Yang and Wu area are very heavy, but Zhu Jun is not the same. It is very comfortable to hear in the ear. He said, "Your Excellency is Xun Ruhu?"

Xun Zhen said, "Xun Zhen, the official, pays respects to the general."

"I was in the imperial court in the past, and I have heard the name of the emperor. Now when I enter Yingchuan, I hear the name of the emperor everywhere. Is the emperor a son of the Xun family in Yingyin?"

Xun Zhen thought: "'I was in the imperial court, I have heard my name'? It's strange, when did my name spread to the court?" She replied, "Yes."

"I don't know what is the relationship between Qing and Xun Langzhong?"

Xun Lang is Xun Shuang. "The eight dragons of the Xun family, the unparalleled kindness of the Ming Dynasty", Xun Shuang is the most famous in the generation of the father of the Xunzhen family. Du Qiao was a famous scholar who was as famous as Li Gu, and he immediately became famous all over the world when he praised him. In the ninth year of Yanxi, Taichang Zhao Dian raised Xun Shuang to be filial, and worshipped him as Langzhong. Xun Shuang was thirty-two years old at the time. After taking office, he gave a memorial and then resigned. Soon, due to the party's misfortune, he first hid at sea, then fled to Hanbin, and wrote a book in anger, and he has not returned home until now.

Xun Zhen replied: "Lang Zhong is Zhen San's father."

Following the father is the same ancestor, then following the father is the same great-grandfather, and following the father is the same great ancestor. Xun Zhen's grandfather and Xun Shuang's grandfather were brothers. Xun Zhen and Xun Yu were four slave brothers, and after two generations, they would have five suits.

Zhu Jun said: "The Qing family has a large number of talents, and the world is famous. Brothers Xun Yue, Xun Yan, Xun Chen, and Xun Yu of the Qing family are all handsome in the prefecture and county. I have heard it for a long time. Xiongcai, nicknamed 'Milk Tiger', Yingchuan's talent is half of the Qing family!" Xun's name is very famous in the world, and he is also polite to Xun Zhen because of Zhu Jun's respect.

Xun Zhen said in his heart, "Brother Zhong said that Zhu Jun was just filial, but I heard him speak very kindly." He replied humbly, "The 'milk tiger' is all about the love of the villagers, and Zhen dare not take it."

"No, your title is worthy of your name! I entered Ru County three days ago, and I first restored Yangcheng and Lunshi. The scholars and people in these two counties are full of praise for you. Shouyangzhai, Fuli County, Crossing the river to lure the enemy, Qing is resolute and decisive, really courageous! Qing has fought several thieves, and now he is from Xiangcheng again, so you should know the situation of the thieves. What is the current situation of the thieves?"

"The general has recovered Yangcheng and the Lun clan?"

"Not bad. I led the troops out of the customs three days ago. The day before yesterday morning, I recovered Yangcheng, and in the afternoon, I recovered the Lun clan."

"Exit" means going out of Luyuan Pass. Xun Zhen said: "Two counties day after day, how fast! The general's divine might."

Zhu Jun stroked his beard and said with a smile, "How about restoring two counties in one night compared to Qing?"

"Zhenzhen restored Xiangcheng and Jia, it was just a fluke. The other day, I failed to lure the enemy across the river." Xun Zhen paused, answered Zhu Jun's previous question, and said, "The thieves have even captured Fucheng and Kunyang. Wuyang was besieged. After the fall of Fucheng and Kunyang, the thieves slaughtered all the clothes and crowns in the county, looted food everywhere, and the people suffered. The people in the south of the county looked up to the general day and night, like a baby looking to his parents."

"How long has it been since the thief hit Wuyang?"

"It will be five days until tomorrow morning."

"In your opinion, can Wuyang still defend?"

"Wuyang County has few small soldiers, many thieves and soldiers, and they have won consecutive victories. Although Bocai has returned to Kunyang, there are still 20,000 thieves from Heman's army attacking the city, which may not last long."

"I discussed with Lord Wenfu and decided to help Wuyang tomorrow, what do you think?"

Xun Zhen had bowed her head to the ground, but when she heard the words, she was stunned for a moment, then raised her head and said, "The general is going to go south to help Wuyang tomorrow?"

"That's right. As you said, the thieves were brutal. After they fell into Fucheng and Kunyang, they slaughtered the county's clothes and crowns. Now Wuyang has been stuck for many days, and it's hard to last. After Wuyang is captured, the county's clothes and crowns will be destroyed again. When the thieves slaughter, the people will also suffer from the thieves. I came here to pacify the thieves, but now Wuyang is in a hurry, I should go south as soon as possible to save the clothes and the people.”

Xun Zhen hesitated. In his original idea, Zhu Jun should have waited for Huangfu Song to arrive and then set off together, but he did not expect Zhu Jun to be in such a hurry.

Zhu Jun observed his words and asked, "What? Is there any objection?"

"Don't dare. It's just that Zhen seems to be too hasty to go south tomorrow."

"how do I say this?"

"The general has come a long way, and the two counties have been rejoined. The soldiers must be exhausted. From the point of view of Zhen, it is better to rest for two days before heading south."

Zhu Jun disapproved and said, "Wuyang is in danger, I lead tens of thousands of soldiers, and rely on the prestige of winning streak, how can I station Yangzhai and sit back and ignore it?"

"The general doesn't know anything."

"Oh?"

"The thieves lost a lot of battles and were full of anger. After they captured the father city, the thief Qu Shuaibo reorganized the team, selected the strong, eliminated the old and the weak, motivated them with anger, and lured them with benefits. The atmosphere is different from the past. The art of warfare said: "Mortal, dead love, dead anger, dead power, dead righteousness, dead profit", this is the thief of dead anger and dead profit, and should not be taken lightly."

Zhu Jun smiled and said: "In the first year of Guanghe, I hit Liang Long and Kong Zhi, and broke tens of thousands with 5,000. The tenth month will be fixed for Jiaozhi. At that time, half of the soldiers I led were family soldiers, and the remaining half were also soldiers. Commander. Today, I lead all the elites of the country. They attacked Yangcheng and Lunshi in one go! It is obvious that the thieves and soldiers are unbearable. Although there are many thieves and soldiers in Bocai, half of them are women and children, and there are only three or four who can fight. Wan, even if he reorganizes and trains, what effect can he have in a few days? You can use the new soldiers to defeat the crowd, and you can still win consecutive battles. Easy."

Xun Zhen said in his heart, "The main force of the Yellow Turbans is in the Kunyang and Wuyang areas, so it is not difficult to overcome the city of Yang and the Lun clan."

But Zhu Jun's words have reached this level, and he can't persuade him any more. If he persuades him again, he will underestimate Zhu Jun. Just like Zhu Jun said: "You can even win consecutive battles with 2,000 new soldiers. Is it not as good as you with tens of thousands of elites?" Helpless, he had to keep his mouth shut. Remember that in the original history, the first battle between Zhu Jun and Bo Cai also failed. Could it be that he was defeated by his underestimated enemy? Xun Zhen said in his heart: "Now that the Yellow Turbans are gathered on the south bank of Rushui, the battle of Changsha that should have happened may not happen again. Then, will there still be Zhu Jun's defeat in the first battle?"

It was agreed in the hall that night that Zhu Jun would take his troops out of the city tomorrow morning, and Xun Zhen would assist him in the capacity of the county soldier Cao Ye, and leave early tomorrow to go to Xiangcheng to make preparations.

When the military was decided, it was already dark, Xun Zhen and Xi Zhicai left the prefect's mansion and returned to Cao She to rest in peace.

On the way, Xi Zhicai said: "Zhu Gong led the crowd to go hundreds of miles, and even fought two counties, Fang entered Yangzhai, and before he rested, he went south to meet tens of thousands of thieves. Jue Shang General', if you advance lightly, you will be defeated."

"Why didn't you persuade you in the hall?"

"Zhenzhi, didn't you pay attention? When you persuaded him to rest for a while before attacking the thief in the hall, he was suddenly unhappy. Zhu Gong is strong, and persuasion is useless."

Xun Zhen said in his heart, "'Just being filial and being righteous'. Earlier I thought my brother Zhong had made a mistake in evaluating him, but now, this 'gang' is not wrong at all!"

The matter has come to this point, it is irreversible, and it can only be done by order.

Because of the fear of failure, Xun Zhen couldn't sleep all night. Early the next morning, before dawn, he and Xi Zhicai left Yangzhai in a hurry and rushed to Xiangcheng first.

In the morning, Zhu Jun led his troops out of the city. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

Kunyang City.

Bo Cai learned the news of the fall of Yangcheng and the Lun clan, and knew that Zhu Jun had led 10,000 people into Yingchuan.

A few years ago, Zhu Junxun pacified Jiaozhi, and he was a man of knowledge in the public opinion of the court and the opposition. Bo Cai did not dare to underestimate, and immediately summoned Qu Shuai under the tent, who was generous and fierce, drew his sword to cut the case, and said: "I surrounded Yangzhai in the front, but returned without success. I went south to Rushui, and was disturbed by Xun thieves, although I defeated Fucheng. , Kunyang, Wuyang has not yet descended, and the road to the south has not yet opened. Our army can't combine with Runan and Nanyang, and the army of the thieves will arrive! After Zhu Jun and Xun, the thieves will attack, and Wuyang is in front of me. Trapped within a hundred miles, lost, nothing to die for. Fight to the death!"

All promise.

Bo Cai sent people to fly to Wuyang and called He Man back.

He Man received the news and immediately retreated, leaving only 2,000 men and horses to monitor Wuyang, and returned to Kunyang with the remaining 10,000 people.

The two sides joined forces, 45,000 people, fiercely armed, swearing and swearing, and wishing to fight Zhu Jun and Xun Zhen to the death.
