The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Because Sun Jian came from the south of the county, the place where Xun Zhen and him parted ways was in the south of the county, about two or three miles away from Yangzhai County, and about ten miles from Xun Zhen's camp. , the galloping horse returned to the base camp.

When they arrived at the camp, Xun Zhen did not rush to prepare a feast for Sun Jianzhi, but called Xu Zhong, Xun Cheng, Xin Ai and other school captains, and ordered: "All the people who are training in the school grounds, return to the camp immediately, Those who are in the tent, immediately put on the armor, and order the three armies to assemble and prepare for battle immediately, ... Yu Lang, take the knights of your tribe out of the camp to guard."

Xu Zhong and others were inexplicable.

Xu Zhongxin said: "Didn't Junhou go to greet General Sun? I just saw General Sun's trilogy passing by on the road outside the camp, the flags were like forests, and the dust was booming, but why did Junhou return alone after a long time? You also told me to wait for the preparations?…Where is General Sun? Who is preparing for the battle?" He asked, "I dare to ask the lord: But what happened? Why did the three armies suddenly prepare for the battle?"

Xun Zhen replied, "Wentai has led five hundred elites to Yangzhai."

"Chi..."

Xu Zhong said only a small part of the words, and only said one word, and then he woke up and understood the meaning of Xun Zhen's words.

He and Xun Cheng and the others looked at each other, including Xin Ai, who was originally lazy, but also straightened his back at this time, and his face became serious.

Everyone knows: Sun Jian was appointed as the prefect of Yingchuan by Xun Zhenbiao, and Kong Mi is now living in the back house of the county mansion, and he has no intention of giving up. , why? it goes without saying. This was obviously aimed at Kong Yu.

Xun Cheng asked, "Where is General Sun's line?"

"General Sun ordered Zhi to go to the east of the county."

Sun Jian's order to Wu Jing and others was to lead them to build a camp in the east of the county, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that this order was only superficial. Thinking that Sun Jian was the main general, he personally led five hundred elites to Yangyang. Zhai, I have gone to trouble Kong Yu, how could Wu Jing and others as his subordinates really go to Anzhai without any heart? Needless to say, they must have gone to the east of the county to prepare for the battle.

Yangzhai County is located on the south bank of the Yingshui River. The north of the city is quite close to the water. In order to prevent Dong Zhuo's troops from re-entering and looting, Le Jin transferred all the county soldiers to the west of the city a while ago. The south of the city is now Xun Zhen's camp. Before Sun Jian arrived, perhaps in order to show off his might, to show his strength, and to "shock" Xun Zhen, Kong Nian placed the Yuzhou army he brought along diagonally opposite Xunzhen's camp, between the south and east of the county. Now Sun Jian's troops have gone to the east of the county to prepare for the battle. In other words, in terms of the current military situation of the three troops, Xun Zhen and Sun Jian just wrapped Kong Ni's Yuzhou army in the middle. Implicitly formed a pinch attack.

Xu Zhongxin said: "General Sun's army went outside the county, and he led his elite to the county. This is clearly to make things difficult for Kong Yuzhou. If things don't work out, or even if they do, they will definitely make Kongyuzhou furious. Maybe he will send troops to fight with me, so once the prince returns to the camp, he will put my three armies on alert."

He thought again: "What if there is a real war? Although General Sun is a tired soldier from a long distance, our unit has been recharged for a long time, and there are four thousand county soldiers in the west of the county who can come to support at any time. Under the circumstances, although Kongyuzhou’s works are numerous, they are not enough to be feared.”

"There is no intention to count", which means that the Yuzhou army is currently unprepared, but Xun Zhen and Sun Jian's troops have made arrangements and preparations in advance. As a result, although the Yuzhou army has a large number of troops and horses, there are no strongholds to protect them. And in a hurry, it is not difficult to lose.

Xu Zhong has been in charge of the army for a long time, and he is no longer the young chivalrous man who "sang qi lightly to death" back then. What he thinks and thinks now has nothing to do with "shang qi". Because of this, he calculated the outcome after the war, and he was only surprised for a short time, and then he regained his stability and silence.

Xin Ai asked, "Is my cavalry just going out to the camp to prepare for the battle? Would you like me to send two elite troops to the Yuzhou Army to monitor the near side first?"

In the case of "surveillance", where do you need so many two cavalry? Xin Ai wanted to put two cavalrymen to the edge of the Yuzhou army first. Once the battle started, the two cavalry would be able to charge immediately, and they could kill and injure the Yuzhou army who had no camp protection and were staying in the wild in the first time. More importantly, it created a panic, so that the cavalry and infantry of the Xun and Sun tribes could make a large-scale attack.

Xun Zhen said in his heart: "The leader of the cavalry is fast and fierce. Yulang has been in charge of the cavalry for a long time, and has experienced many battles. He is no longer the young Xin Jiayu who was good at fighting against me in Yingchuan for the Yellow Turbans. Sir, this statement has three flavors of cavalry." After a moment of indulgence, he said, "You don't need two songs, it is enough to send four or five cavalry, and then send a few cavalry to inquire around the county."

Xunzhen's camp was less than fifteen miles away from the Yuzhou army's station, and the cavalry could arrive in a flash. For the time being, there was no need to send someone to him.

The generals looked serious, but Xi Zhicai, who stood beside Xun Zhen, looked relaxed.

He smiled at Xin Ai and the others and said: "Kongyuzhou is a scholar, although the troops and horses under the tent are prosperous, but they are not direct descendants, and their origins are very mixed, such as the armies of Chen, Liang, Lu, and Runan, and the name belongs to their lineage. Actually, there are generals in each of them. Kong Yuzhou refused to set up camp in the county and made them sleep in the wild. The generation was already quite dissatisfied. If they asked Dong, they might be able to obey their orders reluctantly. I predict that when General Sun enters the city today and Kongyu Prefecture is angry and raises troops, nothing will happen. You can follow the orders of the Junhou army, and you need to be on guard, but you don’t need to be too nervous.”

Although Xi Zhicai was not from a famous family, and he was not very brave in martial arts, he had been under the tent of Xun Zhen for a long time, and he was resourceful and resourceful. After a while, they responded in unison: "No."

Xun You and Xun Yu, who were standing near Xun Zhen, had different expressions when they watched the generals go out of the tent.

Xun You and Xi Zhicai have similar expressions, and they are also very relaxed.

Xun Yu frowned.

Xun Zhen saw it and asked, "Wen Ruo, why are you frowning?" She asked deliberately, "But if you worry about Kong Yuzhou coming to attack me, my team might lose?"

Xun Yu shook his head and said, "As Zhicai said, Duke Kong has no military talent and cannot be compared with Brother A and General Sun. The composition of the Yuzhou army is complex, and the military orders cannot be unified, and it is far from being comparable to Brother A and General Sun. In comparison with the Ministry, in the event of a war, Duke Kong will be defeated."

"Then what are you worried about?"

"Brother, in order to supply food and fight against Dong, it is inevitable that Brother A will fight against Duke Kong, but now that General Sun is leading troops into the county, if Duke Kong is really angered and the two armies are at peace, even if Infighting won't happen, but I'm afraid it will be bad for Dong."

Xun Zhen said, "Wen Ruo means 'fight without breaking'."

If it is just to fight for the supply of food and grain and the command of the war against Dong, it is possible to fight without breaking it, but Xun Zhen knows the outcome of the war against Dong, and what he is fighting for now is the dominance of Yuzhou in the future, facing the prefect of Yuzhou. How could Kong Yu be able to fight without breaking?

Xun Zhen was not able to answer, and remained silent.

Xun You opened his mouth and said: "Although there is no county governor in Yingchuan now, Kong Yuzhou is the prefect of the state, but he lives proudly in the Yingchuan prefecture, and wants to take care of the affairs of Yingchuan by himself. The officials of Guo Jun and Du You all have criticisms about this, but it is no wonder that General Sun will directly lead troops into the county after hearing about it. Just now, Zhicai and Jun also said that a scribe in Kongyu Prefecture is not a military traveler. Talent, anyway, in the future, it will be Junhou and General Sun who will rely on Dong, and even if they have torn face with him, it will not affect the situation of Dong."

"Having said that, there are tens of thousands of Yuzhou troops under Kong Gong's account, accounting for more than half of our Yingchuan coalition army. It would be a pity if these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses could not participate in the crusade against Dong. ."

Xi Zhicai said with a smile: "These tens of thousands of Yuzhou troops are not private soldiers of Kong Yuzhou, but volunteer soldiers who raise their flags to appeal to Dong. Yes, they are soldiers and horses of Yuzhou, but they are not necessarily willing to obey Yuzhou. According to the order of the governor, the lord is the hero of the state, and he is also one of the generals of Dong. 'Good ministers choose wood to live in', as long as the lord and general Sun show enough wisdom and bravery, then among the generals of the Yuzhou army, Those who have the intention of appealing to Dong will naturally know whose orders to obey, and if they have no intention of appealing to Dong, but just come here to make up their minds, then even if they don't break up with Kong Yuzhou, these people will not show up when they are appealing to Dong. What power."

After saying these words, Xi Zhicai smiled again and said to Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, Qing and I have been separated for many years, and now that we are reunited, Qing is still as clear as ice." Then he turned to Xun Zhen and smiled, "Wen If, you are a gentleman in your family."

Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu had a very good friendship in the early years, and Xun Zhen was still the Xi Zhicai who met through Xun Yucai.

Xi and Xun have been separated for many years. With the friction and accumulation of years, Xi Cai has lost three points of the arrogance of the past, and has changed slightly. Compared with the early years, Xun Yu has not changed much, and it is still the same. Bing Zhiqing is still a gentle and upright gentleman.

Although Xun You and Xun Yu and Xun Zhen are of the same age, they are a generation apart. He is a junior, and when it comes to this kind of evaluation of "elders", he is not easy to intervene. When the topic comes to an end, he asks Xun Zhen: "Jun Hou, General Sun said that he will arrive at dusk at the latest. Do you want to order the next party to prepare the banquet as soon as possible?"

"Okay."

Xun You went out of the tent, passed down the order for Sun Jian's rectification banquet, and went around to the watchtower by the way, climbed up to look out, and watched all the troops prepare for the battle, only to see the flags rising and falling in the battalion, only to hear the constant orders from all over the place, thousands of soldiers or soldiers. Returning from the school grounds, or rushing out of the tent, each armed with armour, hurriedly gathered at the headquarters where the flag was erected, and saw that Xin Ai had ordered the cavalry~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and was leading them out of the camp .

It is exactly: the flag is waved to summon thousands of people, and the general orders a thousand troops to move.

The building was high and the wind was cold, and Xun You was wearing a little thin clothes. After looking at it for a while, he couldn't stand the wind and cold, so he was about to go downstairs and return to his tent. At this moment, he saw the cavalry of Xin Ai who were leaving the camp suddenly split to the left and right. Make way out.

He stopped to watch it from a distance, and saw several horses galloping in from outside the camp.

I saw that after the riders entered the camp, they jumped off their horses one after another, and the long-awaited Qu Chang, who was on duty at the camp gate, stepped forward, asked a few words, and then bowed and saluted at the leader of the riders. Xin Ai, who was at the end of the cavalry line, quickly stepped out and rushed to the front of these knights. He also gave a military salute to the leader, then turned around and led them towards the central army.

Xun You's heart moved, and he said, "Isn't it?"

He hurriedly went down from the watchtower and returned to Xun Zhen's tent. Since he was not sure who was coming, he did not rush into the tent to report to Xun Zhen, but just waited outside the tent. After a short wait, he saw Xin Ai and the others. A knight came in stride, and the knight who took the lead was Sun Jian? Xun You subconsciously looked up at the sky, the sun was hanging in the west, the sky was still bright, the red glow had not yet risen, and the twilight had not yet arrived.
