The third volume, the thirty-second chapter, the seven-star action
Unexpectedly, it was reasonable. In the eyes of the world, the people of Bingzhou sent troops to Jizhou in the name of a strange cause of the emperor's death. Yuan Shao tried to establish himself and sent troops to Jizhou. He began the action to wipe out Yuan Shao.
Shortly after Yuan Shao finished fighting Gongsun Zan, his vitality was damaged. He wanted to repair it for a while and then attack Bingzhou in the name of the emperor, but he never expected that the emperor would be tilted at this time. In a hurry, he had to mobilize his troops to fight against the Bingzhou army.
The Bingzhou Army attacked in three groups.
On the northern road, the main general was appointed by Fu Luo. He partnered with Uncle Cheng Yu, who ate human flesh, and led tens of thousands of Xiongnu cavalry. Under the banner of revenge of the Han emperor by the ministers enthroned by the Han Dynasty, invaded the northern part of Youzhou from the grassland, restrained Yuan Shao's people who remained in Youzhou, and the Wuhuan tribe that formed an alliance with Yuan Shao, and secretly encouraged Gongsun Zan's remnants to avenge Gongsun Zan.
On this side of the South Road, with the assistance of Xi Zhicai, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, Xu Rong and others, Zhang Liao led his troops from Henoi and raised the flags of Lu Bu and others in the army. He pretended to be the main force of the Bingzhou Army and went north from Liyang to attack Yecheng in Wei County, Jizhou.
As soon as Bingzhou moved, all warlords from all over the world began to move.
Not to mention the distance, although Sun Ce pacified Jiangdong with the help of Zhou Yu and Lu Su, they were far from reaching the north, and the six counties of Jiangdong that had just been captured had not been completely pacified, and the powerful people from all over the country and the Shanyue people were still ready to move. The handsome guys could only be restrained and looked at Beixing helplessly.
Liu Biao from Jingzhou was indecisive and had no idea. He especially liked to guard the city. Although his generals kept instigating him, he only made small-scale attacks, and used the slogan to cut off the wings of the Yuan family's thief. He sent several generals to lead a team to fight Yuan Shu and grab Nanyang.
When everyone was fighting, Cao Cao was even more unwilling to be lonely. He expressed his friendship and sincerity in Bingzhou, and sent general Yu Jin to lead thousands of old and weak soldiers. He bluffed and claimed to be a 50,000 army to feint the attack on Qingzhou under Yuan Shao. As a result, he personally led the main army and rushed to Xuzhou.
Bingzhou and Jizhou are two tigers, and Xuzhou is a little sheep. Cao Cao's plan is very sufficient: both sides of Binghe River have many soldiers and generals, and if the war starts, there will be no winner. He is planning to kill Liu Bei's people during the war between Jizhou and Binghe River, consolidate the territory of Yanzhou, and take the opportunity to sweep the entire Yuzhou. Of course, if both sides of Binghe River fight to the point of losing both sides, he doesn't mind being a giggling fisherman.
On Zhang Liao's side, he led more than 20,000 elite infantrymen and 8,000 cavalry to reach the Yellow Territory in southern Jizhou within a few days and met Yuan Shao's 80,000 main forces. The two sides confronted each other by Dangshui, Huangze and Qinghe as separates, and with natural terrain as barriers.
The battle situation was very fierce at the beginning. Yuan Shao's army relied on a large number of soldiers. Several generals took turns to challenge the attack, and there was a tendency to kick the Bingzhou army back to their hometown in one fell swoop.
However, after several small battles, more than 20,000 well-trained and well-equipped Bingzhou infantry easily blocked the many attacks of Yuan Shao's army with solid camp fortifications and river natural dangers. Zhang Liao personally led 8,000 geese cavalry to the north, and often launched a surprise attack while Yuan Shao's army crossed the river. He beat Yuan Shao's army to the ground for teeth. After a while, Yuan Shao's army was very afraid of the Bingzhou cavalry and did not dare to send troops easily.
The situation was stalemate, and Yuan Shao, who was in charge of Yecheng, was disturbed by the battle report of Neihuang. In the end, he couldn't help but personally led the 20,000 personal soldiers guarding the capital to reinforce Neihuang, hoping to bring some turning point to the battle situation. As soon as his Yecheng army began to mobilize, the Ye Mansion spies who had not stepped out of the city gate, had already released a group of round pigeons and flew straight to the west before the troops left the city gate.
Under the black night, above Jingxing Pass City, there was a smell of barbecue. Facing the stars all over the sky and the earth, Guo Jia whispered a poem in a low voice. Hua Tuo recited sonnets in ancient English. In this extremely humanistic feeling, the legs of the baked pigeons between the two kept changing their masters.
Glazed at Hua Tuo, Guo Jia and Ye Xiaoyi, who were fighting for the last pigeon's legs, clenched their fists, and their eyes were flashing with strange light, approaching infinitely at the edge of the rampage.
"Xiaoyi, come on, eat, eat. Why don't you eat?" Hua Tuo burped with the greasy edge of his mouth: "This pigeon is so fat, round and chubby, and it's oily when roasted. Hey, the teeth are good, the appetite is good. The body is great, and it tastes good when you eat it. Look at it~ Yefu meat pigeon!"
"This pigeon is so fat that it is rare in the world." Guo Jia put half of the pigeon's legs into his mouth and couldn't help but exclaim: "Although ordinary pigeons are delicious, they are not exercising enough and have a slightly inferior taste. Only the Yefu meat pigeon travels thousands of miles to our stomachs. The muscles are just as tight as they are, and they are chewed in their mouths and taste them for a long time..."
Patience! Patience! Patience... can't continue!
Ye Xiaoyi took a deep breath and rushed to the two of them viciously: "You two guys, how dare you eat my carrier pigeons! You dare to call Xiao Ye to come over and chew bones... Go to die! Lushan~~~ Shenglongba~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When he heard Ye Xiaoyi's "super heavy lion roaring", a smile appeared on the corner of Lu Bu's lips. He looked up at the city wall with his head held high, and saw Ye Xiaoyi "dances dancing around", with several pigeon bones falling beside him. Before he left the seclusion, he thought about saying goodbye to her, but in the end, he still failed to practice.
If Yuan Shao's nest is captured, then Jizhou and Youzhou will be within reach. The division of Qingzhou may have a dispute with Cao Cao. Such a large northern territory can maintain peace for several years as long as it is firmly held... In this case, should I mention something to her? But is it really appropriate to mention it at that time? Should I mention her now? But I didn't see any normal reaction when I vent my breath in the previous few times...
When Lu Bu saw Ye Xiaoyi wave to him, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand, wanting to wave it like her. But as soon as his fingers moved, he heard Gao Shun say next to him: "Lord, it's time to set off."
Set off? Yes, that guy Yuan Shao is still waiting for him to solve it.
Lu Bu waved his hand to Ye Xiaoyi according to the same path. With his rapid and powerful movements, he whispered to everyone to move.
Get out, get out, get out... Rows of soldiers began to move their steps. Tens of thousands of elite soldiers quietly left the gate and went east. Their target was 600 miles southeast of Jingxingguan, Taihang Mountain. Yuan Shao's old nest - Yecheng!
This is the third army dispatched by Bingzhou, and it is also the truly decisive "beheading operation". With the cooperation of Zhang Yan and his former Heishan Army, Yuan Shao'an's spies near Jingxing were wiped out, and the elite Bingzhou army gathered, and no sound came out until the troops were sent.
Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Hua Xiong... A brave general gathered under the banner of the Bingzhou governor, Sili's captain, and former general Lu Bu.
We need quality, not quantity. This is the requirement of Bingzhou for this "beheading operation" planned by Guo Jia.
Watching Lu Bu's army set off. Ye Xiaoyi lay on the top of the city and sighed. Back then, in Jiuyuan, only six brothers went out to fight for their lives. Later, there were more than fifty servants. With Cheng Lian, Wei Xu, Ba Guards... After these years, people grew up and more soldiers were added. But the burden in their hearts seemed to increase, and people always like to recall the things they did when they were young.
"Fengxiao, you said, if a person likes memories, does it start to age?" Ye Xiaoyi turned his head and asked Guo Jia. She still remembers this sentence that seemed very popular in her previous life.
"No. Seeing the past is to face the future better." Guo Jia smiled at Ye Xiaoyi and patted Ye Xiaoyi on the shoulder with comfort. This time he went to fight, he was the grain-pressing officer on the line of Lu Bu. After Lu Bu and his friends set off for a few days, he would transport grain on the road according to the situation. By the way, he would bring the old fox Jia Xu and the newly joined newcomer Xu Shu.
Needless to say, the old fox is fine, it is okay to put it in Jinyang City. Maybe it can be used. As for Xu Shu, it is very fun. This kid came to the ground on the eve of the Bingzhou army. At that time, his whole body was broken and no different from beggars. He was almost killed by the Ye Mansion people as a spy. Later, he was dragged from the city to the prison, and then dragged it to the palace from the prison, and tried it several times. He took a bath and found some scholars from Yingchuan to prove his identity.
He raised his troops for a thousand days, and used his troops for a while. Ye Xiaoyi sent someone to take care of Xu's mother for so many years, and finally waited for Xu Shu, which was not a loss. She raised Xu Shu for a few days, and saw that she was a little energetic, so she threw him to Guo Jia for exile. Knowing that Xu Shu was a celebrity, it was completely the role of Romance novels. But she heard from Hua Tuo that in official history, it seemed that Xu Shu had not made much achievements. Since that was the case, she had to send him out for training. It was really not possible. She was exiled to be a small official in the county. In short, she could not be idle.
Lu Bu left, Guo Jia and others continued to stay in Jingxing. Ye Xiaoyi and Liu Ye fought back to Jinyang City first.
At this time, Jinyang City showed a depression that had not been seen for several years. Although the shop was still open, it was no longer as prosperous as before. Apart from the weapon shop, there were much less business in other places.
Although he had confidence in Lu Bu and the Bingzhou soldiers, he had no idea about the war and no one could guarantee that Lu Bu would win and Bingzhou would win. Therefore, whether it was Jinyang City or other places in Bingzhou, the trend of hoarding grain was prevalent, and many families even began to buy livestock in large quantities, as if they had plans to keep it as food.
Seeing this situation, Chen Qun, Sima Lang, Sima Yi and others quickly issued several temporary policies to calm down prices, and sent people to various counties to beat drums and drums to everyone not to panic, telling them that as long as they perform their duties, the stability situation will continue.
In order to win the trust of Yu Min, Chen Qun and others also specially purchased military supplies at high prices and hired civilians to transport weapons and military rations. Pay half of the money first and then deliver the goods. When it is delivered, you can come back to collect the remaining half...
Ye Xiaoyi didn't know what Chen Qun and the others thought. She couldn't understand the civil affairs anyway. She squatted honestly in Jinyang Prefecture in Bingzhou. The only place she could do was to play the role of a goodwill ambassador and ask the people around her. But she didn't do her job for long before Chen Qun "selled" her.
Chen Qun asked her and Liu Ye to patrol Bingzhou and Sili to comfort widows and orphans in various places, and to supervise the transportation of food and grass in various places. This time, the Bingzhou army was pressing on the eastern front, and the troops in the north and the west were squeezed as much as possible, and all the people sent were old people from the Ye Mansion. Many of the food provided by Yuan Shao in Jizhou were filled with military rations and stocked up some of them. The remaining particles were full, and they were sent to the farmers in Sili as seeds.
Lu Bu fought in front and calmed down the people in the rear.
Ye Xiaoyi was quite satisfied with this arrangement - this way he could cultivate Liu Ye according to his own ideas. But she was still worried. Because from the sale of the little emperor land, Guo Jia's prestige was not as high as Lu Bu. Although it rose rapidly later, it was absolutely related to the strangeness of the incident.
How can I make Guo Jia's reputation compete with Lu Bu? Wu has Lu Bu and Wen has Guo Jia. This should be the Bingzhou in the eyes of outsiders. Ye Xiaoyi didn't know what Guo Jia had plans, but it was definitely not a good thing to be a big shot in the court, even if that person was Lu Bu. Because no one dared to guarantee that he would not be corrupt and degenerate in the face of huge power... And now everyone is in Lu Bu's military mansion, so they are loyal to the Bingzhou Group. If they become officials in the court in the future, their loyalty will become the emperor. At that time, how should the conflict between Lu Bu and the emperor be resolved...
Ye Xiaoyi sat in the carriage and thought blankly. Liu Ye shook her and shook her next to her: "Sister Ye, don't be dazed, are you afraid that Lu Bingzhou will not defeat Yuan Shao?"
"Ah, no. I'm afraid that Ye Wu and the others will do something extraordinary." Ye Xiaoyi grinned and expressed admiration for the minds of those under his command. A few days ago, Ye Xuan told her that the paparazzi activities were too frequent and the funds were tight, and asked her if she could do some income-generating activities.
She had never heard of Ye Xuan's suggestion, but she thought it was quite new. After asking, she learned that Ye Wu sent many people to various places to inquire about the battle situation and could roughly grasp the latest battle reports from various places. Of course, there were a lot of battle situations between Lu Bu and Yuan Shao, and they were all exclusive first-hand materials.
"What are Ye Wu and the others going to do? By the way, I seemed to see them discussing with Ren Wu and Ren Liu a few days ago?" Liu Ye has always been interested in the group of guys under Ye Xiaoyi. Especially the formation of paparazzi, he opened his eyes.
"They said that they asked their subordinates to tell Ren Wu and Ren Liu the unsecret information they had found. Their brothers, Ren Wu and Ren Liu, came forward and organized to write to various places in Bingzhou to write... Of course, it was a fee. The main targets were scholars and merchants. Ordinary people reduced the fees and distributed the amount of income in proportion." Ye Xiaoyi admired this method of making up for the deficit and felt that Ye Xuan and Ye Wu were definitely top merchants in the peace era.
"...Isn't this what Mr. Hua said...monopoly?" Liu Ye recalled Hua Tuo's teachings and continued: "It means they have some kind of resources, and the government stipulates that only they have the right to provide such resources to the people, so a monopoly has been formed. Your intelligence communication agency is monopoly."
Yes, who said it was not?
Ye Xiaoyi nodded, thinking that it was just like railways and electricity, especially when it reached the peak of holidays, he could not buy tickets without passing the "scalper".
Scalpers... vote... right.
Ye Xiaoyi patted his thigh hard: "Look at my memory, why did I forget it! I also want to remind them to deliberately make a few people pretending to be ticket sellers and sell their own scalpers."
"...Unless it is an emergency situation, they can only sell their own pirated copies." Liu Ye flexibly used the words taught by Hua Tuo.
"Piracy...is good. I should tell them that the authentic battle situation is on the court, and the pirated low-priced battle situation is off the court." Ye Xiaoyi laughed.
