The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms
Vol 8 Chapter 37: Shipi should not be stronger.
"Now that the battle has been won, there is no major enemy to the south of Yique. In my opinion, our army should play a triumphant song, take advantage of the victory and advance bravely. After resting for a whole day and a half, we will set up our camp and go straight to the various passes in Yique. The gate of Luoyang." Xie Rong said.
Ding Meng agreed with his suggestion and said: "Dong Bing is fierce, and the generals have won consecutive victories. I am waiting for consecutive victories in consecutive battles and morale is high, so it is time to make persistent efforts. It is less than a hundred miles to go to Yique Pass, and I am willing to lead the troops. Go ahead and make way for the general."
Xun Zhen asked Sun Jian, "Wentai, what do you think?"
Although Sun Jian was a ferocious predator, he had been on the battlefield for a long time, and he had seen with his own eyes the fierceness of the elite soldiers in Dong Zhuo's army, so he did not agree with Xie Rong and Ding Meng's optimism. , but that is because most of the soldiers who fought in the battles were old soldiers, and most of the new soldiers were on the sidelines, because they were able to compete with Dong soldiers, and several beat them. Among the 30,000 Dong soldiers in Yique's various passes, even if they are not all elite soldiers, they can rely on them. Dangerous, there are more troops than me, and under my continuous battle, the soldiers are exhausted, but this time is not the time to attack Yique."
Xie Rong asked, "Then from the general's point of view, what should our army do now? Should we retreat? Our army has won two victories in three days, wiped out nearly 10,000 enemies, and its morale is high. If we retreat at this time, it may hurt our morale."
Ding Meng also said: "Yes, morale is available, it seems inappropriate to retreat at this time. In my opinion, it is better to march in rather than retreat.
I have won consecutive victories against Dong Bing, and I think that Hu Zhen must have been terrified, and he would never dare to come out to fight against me. Just as the general said, our army is tired from fighting, and the soldiers are tired, but there is no When Hu Zhen leaves the pass, our army can first go outside the pass, then build a camp, and then rest and recuperate. "
Sun Jian disagreed, feeling that Xie Rong and Ding Meng were too blindly optimistic, and said to himself, "Although these two are loyal and brave and dare to fight, they are not comparable to Kong and others, but they don't know the art of war." Bianzhang, Han Sui, and Dong Zhuo are in the same army. Although the camp is not in the same place, I have also met Hu Zhen. Although this person is difficult to compare with me and Zhenzhi, he is also a veteran in the field. If our army is not ready to fight in a row, the troops and horses are exhausted? If our army marches into the various passes in Yique now, he will definitely send elite troops to counterattack in order to boost his morale. In this place, once attacked, there is no doubt that you will be defeated, ... absolutely cannot advance at this time!"
Xie Rong and Ding Meng were from Yuzhou, and it was because of Xun Zhen that they joined forces with Xun and Sun, while Sun Jian joined forces with Xun, Xie, and Ding because of Xun Zhen. Invisibly, Xun Zhen was the link between them. In addition to his own clan and prestige, he had already become the leader of this coalition army. Sun Jian, Xie Rong and Ding Meng disagreed, so the three all looked at Xun Zhen and waited for him to decide.
Xun Zhen first said to Xie Rong and Ding Meng: "What the two gentlemen said is good, our army's morale is very high at the moment." Then he said to Sun Jian, "However, what Wentai said is also true, our army has become exhausted after continuous battles, and we must not rashly advance. ."
To Xun Zhen, Xie Rong and Ding Meng were very convinced. Xie Rong said, "Then what should I do now? Withdraw the army?"
"This time, I am not the only one waiting for Dong, Meng De and Ben Chu are also going the same way. Now that our army has opened up the road to Yique, in my humble opinion, there is no need to worry for the time being, but we can go ahead with the cavalry. Go to Mengde and Benchu to see what the current situation of their two routes is, where they have entered, and after they find out, they can discuss the matter of attacking Yique."
When Xun Zhen said these words, she thought in her heart: "I remember that in the original history, Meng De seemed to be unfavorable in defeating Dong, and he was almost defeated. It is difficult to win against these two groups of people at the beginning of the year.”
Yuan Shao only sent 8,000 people to Mengjin. Not to mention the small number of people, it was still quite far from Xun Zhen's place. Xun Zhen couldn't count on him to help him along the way, only Cao Cao could count on it.
If the course of history was changed because of his participation, Xun Zhen vaguely remembered that in the original history, Yuan Shao did not seem to send troops to fight at all, and although there are few now, he still sent 8,000 people to fight. It should be considered that his arrival has changed the course of history a little, so will Cao Cao's fate in the original history also be changed a little because of this? No more defeats? If so, Cao Cao did not lose this time, then if he could stand against Xu Rong in Xingyang and Luyuanguan, and at the same time divert the attention of Dong Zhuo, who was sitting in Luoyang, Xun Zhen and Sun Jian could attack Yique. No victory, but if Cao Cao is still the same as the original historical process, and defeated, Xun Zhen thought to himself: "I have no choice but to retreat immediately."
"There is only one way to retreat", this is not because Xun Zhen is timid, but because of the situation.
If Cao Cao is not defeated, on the one hand, he can hold back Xu Rong's troops, and on the other hand, he can distract Dong Zhuo's attention. On the one hand, Dong Zhuo can no longer consider the safety of Luyuan Pass, and can concentrate on dealing with Yuan Shao and Xun Zhen.
Yuan Shao's troops were only 8,000, and they were on the other side of the Yellow River, so there was not much threat to Luoyang. Dong Zhuo would most likely deal with Xun Zhen first.
Because it is now facing the enemy from three sides, Xun, Cao and Yuan have not long since the beginning of the army, and the battle situation in various battlefields is not yet clear, so Dong Zhuo's elite left in Luoyang has not been dispatched, and he is watching the changes, Li Jue, Guo Si, Dong Zhuo There is no need to say more about the powerful generals who are trusted by him, just say that Lu Bu. Although Lu Bu’s integrity is not very good, he is a strong enemy on the battlefield. State soldiers, in terms of shrewdness, are by no means inferior to Liangzhou soldiers, and his own martial arts are even more outstanding. Under his command are a group of warriors such as Gao Shun, Song Xian, Wei Xu, Hao Meng, Cheng Lian, and Wei Yue. No machine can compare.
Once Cao Cao is still defeated as in the original history, Dong Zhuo is likely to send Xu Rong's troops to join forces with Hu Zhen, and it is very likely that Lv Bu and other generals will also be sent to fight against Xun Zhen. He used the image to strike Xun Zhen with a thunderbolt, and stunned the rebels in Hanoi, Suanzao, Yingchuan, and Luyang. By then, with the thousands of elite soldiers under his command, Xunzhen could not resist even with three heads and six arms.
Therefore, Xun Zhen had already secretly set the general policy for this battle before sending troops this time: if Cao Cao is undefeated, he can try to attack Yique; The second discussion on the board of directors.
The so-called "requesting Dong for the second time" is something that Xun Zhen has long thought about. If he loses this time, he will return to Yingchuan first, wait for Dong Zhuo to leave Luoyang, and then leave the county again to fight for the beauty of "recovering Luoyang". name.
In a word, Xun Zhen has only so much strength at hand now. When there is a chance to win, he will not be timid, but when there is a chance to win, he will not fight.
Although Xie Rong and Ding Meng really wanted to take advantage of the victory, they were obedient to Xun Zhen's military strategy and resourcefulness. Seeing that Xun Zhen had said so, they didn't force it any further, and both said, "What the general said was a serious one. Just follow the general's strategy."
Xun Zhen said: "Although this is not the time to advance, it is not the time to let the flag down. There are Dong soldiers in Liangxian and Zhucheng. I have destroyed Heji and Yique's reinforcements. Taking action and capturing these two cities can be regarded as a preliminary preparation for the future invasion of Yique."
If we attack Yique in the future, it will be a tough battle. We must first maintain stability in the future, so Liangxian and Zhucheng will go down first.
Xie Rong and Ding Meng also wanted to take credit for ambush He Ji and ambush and fight for aid, and they were all attacked by Xun Zhen and Sun Jian. If the two of them and Liu Xiaowei fight together, they will be able to defeat it."
Xun Zhen smiled and said: "Okay, these two places will be handed over to the two Captains and Captain Liu to attack them."
Just after it was decided to return to the division, Xie Rong, Ding Meng, and Liu Bing would attack Liangxian and Zhucheng, and there was a military report from Liu Bing.
Liu Bing sent to report the military situation was a Sima of the Ministry. He arrived in Xun Zhen's army, rolled off his horse, and led by Xun Zhen, rushed to Xun Zhen and others, bowed down and said, "Report to General, Liangxian enemy this morning. Go out of the city at night and flee to the west."
Xun Zhen was taken aback, and asked quickly, "Can Liu Xiaowei fight?"
The Sima looked ashamed and said, "Dong soldiers were silent when they left the city, and when they passed our southern camp, they were also silent, but our troops didn't know it, and only found out after dawn, but they couldn't catch up, because they didn't fight with them. .My school captain is not good at defending the enemy, I know that I have done it, please lead the general to punish it."
When Sun Jian heard this, he thought to himself, "Not only Xie and Ding don't know the art of war, but Liu Bing also doesn't know the art of war. Where is the enemy who has already left the city and gone beyond the camp, but the camp besieging the city is actually ignorant? Fortunately, this Liang County Dong Bing was in a hurry to escape and did not take the opportunity to attack Liu Bingying, otherwise he would have suffered a disastrous defeat."
Xie Rong and Ding Meng were shocked when they heard it. They glanced at each other and thought, "Dong Bing left the city, but Liu Xiaowei didn't know?" Then they thought, "If it was me, would I know?" They felt that they were no better than Liu Bing in the military~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and they knew that the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in the headquarters was not much different from that of Liu Bing. People will not know."
Thinking of the blind optimism that Xun Zhen and Sun Jian had just won because of their winning streak, they even suggested the "advice" of marching into Yique. Because of this, I despised Dong Bing, and I didn't realize that Dong Bing was an elite so far. It was only because he met Xun Hou, who was more adept at fighting and wiser, and he lost one after another. Fortunately, Xun Hou Yingming was a hundred times better than me and didn't listen to me. According to the suggestions of the two, otherwise, even if they do enter the Yique Pass, they will probably be as Sun Hou said: there is no doubt that the army will be defeated."
Xun Zhen said in his heart, "If Dong Bing from Liang County doesn't leave, I can take the opportunity to train as a new soldier, but since I have already escaped, that's all."
He said warmly to Sima Liu Bingbu, who reported the news: "This is not the fault of Liu Xiaowei, but because Dong Bing is too cunning. Please return to the camp first, and tell Liu Xiaowei, I will return to the south tomorrow. Note the city."
That Sima took the order and went back to the headquarters.
Xun Zhen dispatched a few cavalry to find Yuan Shao and Cao Cao in the north and northeast, and asked them about their situation.
The whole army rested overnight and returned south the next day.
