Three Kingdoms

Chapter 3296 What is a famous Han scholar

In the Tongguan camp, the managers who stayed behind said that Liu Fu and Guanqiu Jian were the ones who stayed behind, but in fact the core was Cao Zhang.

Cao Cao did not trust anyone, and only his own son could make Cao Cao feel a little relieved.

Cao Zhang was not very old, but he had a strong talent for martial arts since he was a child. He had extraordinary arm strength and liked to wield swords and guns. He hated poetry and scriptures very much. Cao Cao brought him with him and often went in and out of the army. Therefore, Cao Zhang was not completely ignorant of military affairs.

What's more, there were Liu Fu and Guanqiu to assist, and the Central Guard Army who stayed in the Tongguan camp, not only was there no problem in defending the Tongguan camp, but also more or less put some pressure on Tongguan, and even raised food and grass to transport to the Zhongtiaoshan camp.

Among them, the one who endured hardships and worked around the clock and took on more responsibilities was of course not Cao Zhang, but Liu Fu.

Guanqiu Jian helped Liu Fu, and they complemented each other.

Liu Fu is a famous person. Although he didn't kill any generals in battle, he was a practical man.

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Fu was stabbed to death by Cao Cao after drinking. This is basically Mr. Luo's symbolism. In actual history, Liu Fu died of illness because he was too overworked. He is very similar to Liu Biao, and to some extent, he is even more awesome than Liu Biao. In history, Liu Fu governed Yangzhou and went to Hefei alone to fight against Sun Shiwan. He not only won over the local tyrants, but also appeased the people to build water conservancy projects, so that the people of Jianghuai who had fled originally returned. The water conservancy projects built were still in use during the Western Jin Dynasty.

Guanqiu Jian was from Wenxi, but his identity was very special. His father died at the hands of Fei Qian, so this guy and Fei Qian had a hatred for killing their father and an irreconcilable hatred.

Liu Fu was experienced, steady and experienced.

Guanqiu Jian was young, energetic, and could run errands.

Cao Zhang was not good at writing, but he was supported and loved by many people in the army. Many soldiers of Cao's army regarded Cao Zhang as the second Cao Ang.

This combination was just right, not too much and not too little.

As for the transportation of grain and grass and the later guarantee, Cao Zhang naturally did not care about these things. At most, he used a seal for Cao Cao in the last link. Liu Fu was still responsible for the main matters. After arranging things with great difficulty and finishing all the work, he was just waiting to transport them to the Zhongtiaoshan camp tomorrow. Liu Fu relaxed a little and finally got a good sleep...

As a result, he was awakened by the noisy waves in the middle of the night!

Immediately, a soldier of Cao's army rushed in, "Reporting to the subordinates, the enemy is attacking!"

Liu Fu was very puzzled and asked: "Where did the enemy come from? Are they the people who stole from Tongguan?"

"No! It's the enemy from the other side of the river!"

"The other side of the river? ! "Liu Fu got up and asked, "How many people are there? "

"About two or three hundred people. 'The soldier replied.

Liu Fu just breathed a sigh of relief, and then he remembered that the food and supplies that were ready to be transported were piled up on the river bank, so he was worried again, "Where are the food and supplies? Hurry up and move them to the rear camp! '

'This...' The Cao army soldier hesitated.

Liu Fu's face changed, and he immediately ran out of the tent without even bothering to put on his outer robe. He was shocked when he saw it on the river bank.

There were still some Cao army soldiers and laborers around the materials piled near the river bank. Because they were going to be transported the next day, Liu Fu did not let these people return to the rear camp, but let them camp nearby to rest. Otherwise, it would be a waste of time to regroup and gather the next day, wouldn't it?

As a result, now, the flames of those temporary camps soared into the sky, and the cavalrymen and horses held torches high and rushed into these camps frantically, killing people and setting fires, and shouting and screaming resounded on both sides of the river, deafening.

A battle flag flickered in the firelight, and the three colors on it made Liu Fu's eyes hurt.

『It's really the cavalry! 』

Liu Fu had just muttered these words when he heard a loud cannon shot from the top of Tongguan City. The cannon was like thunder, blooming orange in the night sky, and then the defenders of Tongguan City counterattacked the lower city area occupied by Cao's army!

『Not good! 』 Liu Fu was shocked and immediately found Cao Zhang, 『Sir, beat the drum immediately and order the soldiers to counterattack! 』

『Where to counterattack? 』 Cao Zhang asked.

There was a counterattack by the defenders of Tongguan City in front, and the cavalry invaded on the flank. If it was added...

Faced with such a situation, Cao Zhang was younger after all, so he was a little flustered.

『This...』 Liu Fu pondered for a moment, and then made a judgment, 『Tongguan City! 』

『The river bank...』 Cao Zhang cast his eyes to the river bank again.

『I ask for orders to meet the enemy! 'Guanqiu Jian stepped forward and bowed.

'Good!' Liu Fu said immediately, 'There are not many bandits on the river bank. They must be a small number of troops that sneaked across Zhongtiao Mountain. Zhonggong can maintain the front line and force them back... As for those baggage and supplies... it would be best if they can be rescued. If they can't be rescued... it's better to be safe! '

'I obey your order!' Guanqiu Jian replied.

After the discussion, the war drums in Cao's camp sounded loudly.

Cao Zhang personally climbed up the central observation tower and commanded the generals to counterattack with Liu Fu.

Liu Fu's judgment was undoubtedly correct.

Hao Zhao's attack was indeed sudden, but the number was small, and the Tongguan defenders were different. If Cao Jun's front line was really destroyed by the Tongguan defenders' counterattack, and they crushed all the way to Cao Jun's camp, Then the whole family must pack up and go home!

Therefore, Liu Fu focused on the Tongguan front line, which was a reasonable arrangement.

But this gave Hao Zhao the best opportunity!

Not to mention how Cao Zhang and Liu Fu resisted the counterattack of the Tongguan defenders, let's talk about Guanqiu Jian leading his troops and horses to attack the river bank. Guanqiu Jian stared at the three-color flag, his eyes almost bursting with fire.

Guan Qiu Xing's death was blamed on Fei Qian by Guan Qiu Jian.

This is the case with most things in the world. Where your butt is determines your stance. As a son of man, Guanqiu Jian's ambition is to avenge his father. Is there any problem with this?

Now that he saw the hussar soldiers, with only two hundred men, they were killed right before his eyes. It was as if his uncle could bear it, his aunt couldn't bear it, and he couldn't bear it either!

Guanqiu Jian decided to take this opportunity to kill the commander of the cavalry here to relieve his hatred!

Even if the person killed was not a hussar general, it was enough to boost the morale of Cao's soldiers.

As for Liu Fu's instructions just now, Guanqiu Jian had subconsciously forgotten them.

…

…

Yang Xiu, who was imprisoned in the rear camp of Cao's army, was also awakened by the noise.

In the darkness, he stood up from the straw mat, his eyes shining brightly in the darkness.

"The Hussars are coming?" 』

Yang Xiu asked.

No one answered in the darkness, and a moment later Yang Xiu responded as if he was responding to himself: "No way, not that fast." 』

"How is it impossible?" ’ he asked again.

"This is behind Cao's army!" ’ He answered himself.

"The rear, what happened to the rear?" ” He continued to ask.

"This is what the rear looks like. The soldiers on the front line only need to devote themselves to the battlefield, obey orders and fight hard to kill the enemy, but those at the rear have many things to consider..." he answered.

Then Yang Xiu had nothing to say.

Yang Xiu has been detained for some time.

In the cracks of the dilapidated tent, a faintly swaying light shone in, reflecting in Yang Xiu's eyes.

In fact, to a certain extent, Yang Xiu guessed his fate, but he still "ignored the current affairs".

He felt that Cao Cao wanted his "submission" more.

In other words, "loyalty".

Yang Xiu was not "loyal" in the absolute sense to Cao Cao.

The same goes for the big man, him and his family.

Yang Xiu himself knew this, but he didn't think there was any problem with it.

Cao Cao hates Yang Xiu, not only because he hates Yang Xiu's smartness, but also because he hates Yang Xiu's self-righteousness. The Yang family, like the Yuan family, is a family that carries the history of the Han Dynasty, at least the benevolence of two generations of emperors from Emperor Huan of Han to Emperor Ling of Han. However, when the Han Dynasty was about to fall, both the Yuan family and the Yang family did something Something?

Under the emperor, the Yuan family, Yang family and others can be said to be the core of the gentry in the Han Dynasty, but did they ever have the slightest bit of the Han world in their hearts?

If there was, the big man wouldn't be where he is today.

The noisy sounds came and went, mixed with the roaring artillery above Tongguan, causing the originally silent night to be shattered.

??????55.??????

Yang Xiu sat quietly in the tent, his heart filled with disappointment for Cao Cao and worries about the future.

He knew very well that once the war went unfavorably, the situation in Shandong as a whole would fall into chaos.

Yang Xiu closed his eyes and sighed. His fate seemed to be firmly bound by this war.

Inside and outside the tent, it's like two worlds, one noisy and one quiet.

The quiet world is a cage that imprisons freedom; the noisy world is full of madness, bringing misfortune and death.

In this noisy voice, Yang Xiu reflected on every choice, every persistence, and the bitterness after every failure along the way.

Before his eyes appeared the ambition of his youth, when he was full of ambition and regarded everyone in the world as a porpoise. Cao Mengde and Fei Ziyuan were both low-class people. How could they be worthy of him taking a second look?

However, the reality is cruel. These guys who could not even reach his horse's hooves have become the masters of his life and death.

If Cao Cao wins, he will probably survive.

If Cao Cao were defeated, he would probably die.

When Yang Xiu was young, he enjoyed everything that a big man had.

Glory and wealth are as gorgeous as the dazzling gems on the crown.

Now Yang Xiu is suffering from loneliness and pain, like a toilet chip abandoned in a corner.

He suddenly understood that everything was because of the big man's order!

If there is still the order of the Han Dynasty, then he should still be glorious. But now because he has lost the order of the Han Dynasty, he has become a prisoner, a prisoner imprisoned in this broken tent.

The order of the big man!

In the past, what he despised and disdained, considered to be corrupt and ignorant, was the order of the Han Dynasty...

If one day he could go back to the past, he would do everything in his power to maintain order in the Han Dynasty, prevent the Hongdu Academy from being established, prevent the Party from causing trouble, prevent the Xiqiang from rebelling, prevent the Yellow Turbans from causing chaos, and prevent the …

Oh my God!

After completely losing the order of the Han Dynasty, Yang Xiu realized that the things that could make him live a comfortable life were not his family, nor the plaque hanging on his Sizhi Hall, nor the various gold, silver, jewelry, jade and other valuables buried in his family!

『Young Master! 』

A tiny voice sounded.

Yang Xiu was startled, "Who? ! 』

『I, it's me...』 The tiny voice came from a crack in the tent, "Young Master, now is a great opportunity! There is chaos outside, no one cares about this place, run away! 』

『Run? 』 Yang Xiu was stunned, and then he lay down at the crack of the tent and looked out.

There was a black shadow outside the tent, most of his face was in the shadow, shaking, and it was not very clear.

The voice was somewhat familiar, but it was too noisy outside, and Yang Xiu couldn't be sure who the black shadow was.

"Yes, young master," the shadow said in a low voice while turning his head to look around, "There are war horses in the rear camp... Now is the best opportunity... While they are all in the front... Hurry up, it will be too late if you don't run away now! "

Yang Xiu listened and couldn't help but clench his fists tightly. He felt that his palms were extremely slippery and sweaty.

Escape?

The breath of freedom seemed to be outside the tent.

But after a moment, Yang Xiu whispered: "Thank you... I won't run away. "

"Huh? "The shadow seemed a little surprised, "Young master..."

"Thank you..." Yang Xiu repeated, then smiled, "At this point, the only thing I am proud of is that I am the son of the Yang family, the descendant of the Four Wisdoms, and the fourth-generation Taiwei of the Han Dynasty... I would rather die standing than kneel and beg for life..."

The shadow outside the tent was silent for a moment, "Okay. This knife is for the young master. If the young master...'

There was a rustling outside the tent, and a short blade was inserted through the gap. Then the light and shadow flickered twice, and the black shadow left.

Yang Xiu stepped forward, picked up the short blade, and looked at it in the flickering light. An extremely complicated expression appeared on his face.

It seemed like crying, but also like laughing.

…

…

The bank of the river.

Under the command of the war drums, the panicked Cao army finally organized itself. Under the command of Guanqiu Jian, they rushed out of the camp and rushed straight to the floating bridge on the river bank.

Guanqiu Jian rode on the horse, feeling a little nervous. And a little excited.

His father, Guanqiu Xing, was seriously injured and died after the battle in Hedong. Guanqiu Xing was angry and frustrated when he was dying. He roared towards the east of the river and died immediately. This was undoubtedly a great stimulation for the young Guanqiu Jian, and it was also a bloody scar in his heart.

His father worked diligently all his life, worked hard, studied scriptures, and strived for perfection. He was a complete big man in a small town. But he fell on the nail of Fei Qian and died in depression, which became an irreparable regret.

The Guanqiu family came from Wenxi. It is said that the ancestors of the Guanqiu family were also very powerful, but what's the use?

Just like the descendants of King Jing of Zhongshan, it sounds very powerful, but who cares?

Although the Guanqiu family and the Pei family both came from Wenxi, they did not have as many assets as the Pei family.

Because they were originally in Shandong, and later gradually moved to Wenxi. They did not have a large social network like the Pei family, nor did they have huge land wealth like the other surnames such as Pei, Pi, Zhang, and Liu in Hedong. The only thing they could rely on was the scriptures they brought from Shandong...

Study hard, study hard, and study hard. In a region like Hedong Wenxi, which is close to the border of the Han Dynasty, the educational resources that can be obtained can be imagined.

But Guanqiu Xing fought his way out of it, stood out among the many children of the Hedong gentry, became a Langguan who was selected for filial piety and integrity, and entered the eyes of the bigwigs of the Han Dynasty.

Everyone said that Guanqiu Xing was lucky, but Guanqiu Jian knew how much effort and sweat his father Guanqiu Xing had put in for this "good luck"?

After being appointed as a Langguan, it does not mean that Guanqiu Xing can just lie down and enjoy himself. He still has to be diligent and hardworking. He not only has to clean up the shit for his superiors, but also has to take the blame for his superiors. When his superiors are happy, he has to applaud and cheer on the side...

In this way, Guanqiu Xing was evaluated as "a good Langguan."

Just when he was about to become a mother-in-law and was just one step away from becoming a local official who could truly control a region, Fei Qian was like a stone falling from the sky, hitting Guanqiu Xing's path to promotion.

His father died in anger, which made Guanqiu Jian a little suspicious. He always felt that some guys gathered together and laughed, and they were probably laughing at him...

Even if Guanqiu Jian understood that he was suspicious of his neighbors, he still felt aggrieved in his heart.

Without the care of his father, Guanqiu Jian had lived a very carefree life before.

Just like this time when he stayed in Cao's camp, he had to do all kinds of complicated things and run errands for all kinds of tiring work. He also smiled and said that he was young and it was right for him to move more and run more...

Who doesn't want to have a good meal and sleep?

Who would like to be on call twelve hours a day?

But Guanqiu Jian smiled and patted his chest and said, "I like it! I was born to work hard! !"

Like it!

The premise of suffering and enduring is that it is worthwhile to achieve the goal through hard work and overcoming difficulties...

The word "worth" can be as light as a feather or as heavy as Mount Tai.

All the aggrieved feelings over the years have been weighing on Guanqiu Jian's heart.

Now, he thinks he can take this opportunity to compete with the cavalry and hit these damn cavalry soldiers hard, and more importantly, to express his depression that has been accumulated for many years!

Guanqiu Jian thought as he rushed out of the camp gate and ran along the road to the floating bridge.

It's just one or two hundred cavalry soldiers, what's so great about it? !

Behind him were soldiers holding the general's flag, and the ink-colored "Guanqiu" word once again fluttered in the land of Heluo...

This made Guanqiu Jian's blood boil!

What is a famous scholar of the Han Dynasty?

A famous scholar is not only eloquent, but more importantly, he is knowledgeable. He can be a general when he goes out and a prime minister when he comes in!

Let you all see what a famous scholar of the Han Dynasty looks like!

Guanqiu Jian raised his arms and shouted: "The Han will surely win! The Han will surely win! Follow me and kill them all! Drive all the thieves into the river!"
