Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

"Xu Rong knows how to make soldiers, and is quite talented. He can order Xu Rong to lead his troops out of Wuguan and go straight to Wancheng, which can sweep Nanyang."

"Wen Hou has been stationed in Tiger Prison for a long time, I'm afraid it's too boring, but he can order Wen Hou and the state army to attack Yanzhou with 20,000 yuan, capture and kill Yanzhou governor Liu Dai, Chen Liu prefect Zhang Miao, rebel Cao Cao, and attack the wild jujube. The princes of the Kwantung region must be frightened."

Hearing Li Ru’s two-way plan, Dong Zhuo’s expression turned from anger to joy: "Good, good... But Xu Rong is not well-known in my Liangzhou army. Is it better than Li Yu?"

Although Li Zhang failed to defeat Liu Ye, he still restrained Liangzhou soldiers in Chang'an City. They always appeared as the first general under Dong Zhuo. Therefore, Dong Zhuo still preferred the commander of the West Route Army as Li Zhang.

Li Ru shook his head: "Li Zhiran's use of troops is naturally not bad, but he was defeated every time he was defeated. Moreover, Xu Rong's reputation was not well known. Yuan Shu naturally didn't take it seriously. This is the reason why Gao Zu used Han Xin as his general. "

Dong Zhuo nodded when seeing his son-in-law insisting on Xu Rong being the general.

"Send fifty guards to'protect' Xu Rong's family." Dong Zhuo said again.

Li Ru nodded and said yes, then stepped out, but couldn't help but sigh.

He looked up at the sky and said anxiously: "Jia Wen and the resourcefulness are profound. Someone planned to recommend it to his father-in-law for this incident, but he was unexpectedly listed first by Liu Ye. Is it possible that he also saw Jia Xu's resourcefulness..."

Although Li Ru proposed to abandon Chang'an and break his arm, he suddenly felt regret. Liu Ye and the Liangzhou army were on their backs. Now, although Liu Ye's threat is temporarily freed from Liu Ye's threat, he is afraid that when he comes back, he will sweep the world.

Dong Zhuo symbolically refuted Liu Bian's ascension to the throne, but he was speechless, because Liu Bian was the eldest son of the Lingdi and Empress He, while Liu Xie was the son of Wang Meiren and Dong Zhuo supported him. In terms of blood relationship or legitimacy, Liu Xie is the winner.

What's more, Liu Ye also has a living Queen Mother, whose legitimacy is beyond doubt.

Dong Zhuo didn't care about these, instead he concentrated on planning the offensive of the north and south army.

Nanyang County.

Yuan Shu was sitting in Wancheng's county guard's mansion with a grin. Although he was named a post-general, unlike Yuan Shao Liu Biao and others, he was directly appointed as county guard or state shepherd, instead of having a place to live.

Yuan Shu originally wanted to return to Runan, where the Yuan family was born, and his influence was deeply entrenched, but he didn't expect good news to come when he left Wuguan.

Nanyang Prefect Zhang Zi was killed on the spot by Changsha Prefect Sun Jian, and Nanyang Qunlong had no leader.

After Yuan Shu was overjoyed, he immediately entered Wancheng and occupied Nanyang County. With the blood of the Yuan family and the prestige of the post-general, he successfully took charge of everything in Nanyang County.

Just as Yuan Shuchang was thinking about it, a general with a square face and Kong Wu hurriedly walked into the room, walking in a hurry.

"Later General, the big thing is not good!"

Yuan Shu was awakened by the sound, and when he fixed his eyes, it turned out that it was Ji Ling, the top general under his command.

"Ji Ling, what's the matter, what's the panic?" Yuan Shu frowned.

Ji Ling hurriedly said: "Later General, Dong Zhuojun suddenly came out of Wuguan. There were too many enemy troops. Lei Bo's three thousand troops were caught off guard and was defeated in the first battle. Lei Bo's life is still unknown."

Yuan Shu seemed to hear a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and was stunned: "What? How many people are in Dong Zhuojun and who is the leader? Is it Lu Bu or Li Su?"

Ji Ling shook his head: "Neither, one shot Xu flag among the enemy troops, it is not clear who the enemy leader is."

Yuan Shu thought for a while, "The surname Xu? Some stayed in Luoyang for a period of time. Dong Zhuo had Li Lao Guo Bang, Zhang Ji Fan Chou, Hu Zhen Niu Fu, and many other generals, as well as Lv Bu, the commander of the state army. It’s nothing."

Thinking of this, Yuan Shu became excited: "Jiling, how many soldiers and horses are there in Nanyang County?"

Ji Ling clasped his fist and said, "Nanyang County still has more than 50,000 soldiers and horses."

Nanyang County is a big county, comparable to Runan County. Before the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it had a population of more than 2.4 million. After Zhang Mancheng's occupation and Zhu Jun's counterattack, the population was less than a million.

When Yuan Shu came to Nanyang County, in addition to the more than 20,000 soldiers and horses left by Zhang Zi, he increased his troops by 30,000 without a word. If it is about military strength, I am afraid that Yuan Shu is respected by the heroes of the Kwantung.

Yuan Shu smiled and said: "Our army has more than 50,000 people, can't it still deal with an unknown teenager's 30,000 horses?"

After that, Yuan Shu resolutely said: "Ji Ling, Zhang Xun, Le Jiu, Li Feng will follow me out of the city, first break through the enemy, and then seize Wuguan!"

Under Yuan Shu's order, fifty thousand troops gathered in the city, and then lined up to rush outside the city under the banner of a big Yuan character.

How powerful is that fifty thousand army? The camp alone would stretch for more than ten miles. Yuan Shujun was divided into five phalanxes of ten thousand people, each led by the four generals of Ji Ling and Zhang Xun, and the phalanx of the Chinese army was naturally owned by Yuan Shu himself.

The five phalanxes of ten thousand people were not far apart, and they could see commands from each other. If Yuan Shu waved the flag and commanded, it would be majestic to march at the same time.

Yuan Shuzhi looked forward triumphantly, and saw a banner with the character Xu in the enemy formation, but he could not see the enemy's face clearly.

The number of enemy troops was about 30,000, and Yuan Shu immediately sneered.

"The enemy's defeat of Lei Bo is only relying on its superiority in strength. Now that our army is stronger than the enemy, isn't it easy to defeat it?" Yuan Shu held his whip in his hand and said with pride.

"Ji Ling and Zhang Xun are the left wing, and Li Fengle is the right wing, forming a geese formation to attack the enemy!"

With an order from Yuan Shu, the 50,000 army was immediately divided into three parts, forming a "V" shape and flanking Xu Rongjun from left to right. Yuan Shuzhong's army was slightly behind, waiting for a fatal blow.

Xu Rong is a middle-aged man, riding a horse in armor, thin and weak, expressionless.

Xu Rong looked up at Yuan Shu's fifty thousand army, and shook his head slightly.

"Pass the order to defend the two wings of the enemy and approach the enemy's army. Five thousand cavalry are surrounded by pawns and are not allowed to move. Once they are within three miles of the enemy, they will immediately launch an assault."

Hearing Xu Rong's order, the 30,000 Dong Zhuojun trumpeted and fought forward. The two armies quickly fought together, as if two mountains collided, shouting endlessly.

Although Yuan Shujun has a lot of troops, most of them are newly recruited soldiers, who have never experienced battles and outdated equipment, while Dong Zhuojun is an elite and well equipped from a sea of ​​blood.

Five or ten Dong Zhuojun formed a small formation, and they cooperated closely to kill Yuan Shu's soldiers. When the battle was not long, each of Yuan Shujun's soldiers lost their excitement, but turned around and fled.

"If anyone runs away, I will kill him!"

Ji Ling waved a three-pointed two-edged knife and hacked one person to death.
