twenty-seventh branch
Local tyrants shrouded certain forces, with wealth and reserves of materials and talents. However, bandits have no place to live and are disgusted by the people. As long as the government comes, they can respond to them. Therefore, bandits are not afraid, and they are not a big deal, but they are disgusting. But if Gongsun Zan develops, Yuan Shao will be restless. So now Yuan Shao would rather attack Gongsun Zan. He fought with Gongsun Zan many times, and was unwilling to draw out his own troops to wipe out bandits. But Liu He also knows a little bit that Zhang Yan is also a talent.
Otherwise, how could it be that if Lu Bu and Yuan Shao have been fighting for so long? You should know that although Lu Bu and Yuan Shao are in harmony, Lu Bu's soldiers and himself are fully combat-effective. Secondly, Yuan Shao has many generals, which is enough to show that Zhang Yan has some materials.
Liu He nodded and said, "I'll talk about it in detail later..." After saying that, the large army also started to set off, and it was very close to Zhongshan from Dai County to Zhongshan. However, Liu He didn't want to meet Yuan Shao, so after Zhongshan County, Liu He would go directly to Changshan County, and then go to Ai and Shangdang County to take Zhang Yang.
The plan did not change much, so naturally he was very happy. In the ancient times, when the information was transmitted, I was afraid that Yuan Shao might not have heard the news long after he took Zhang Yan. So Liu He was not anxious at all. Thinking of this, Liu He smiled, and Zhang Yan either chose to die or had to surrender.
The team began to leave the city and headed towards Guangchang. The journey was only one day, and the county magistrates from all over the place had long been unknown where to go. Under the raging Black Mountain Army, Changshan County had no officials. Zhongshan County was even worse, but the general county towns were still quite stable. These bandits were unlucky in most areas, but the bandits did not massacre at will.
After leaving Wei County, Liu He got on the carriage and looked at Liu He outside thinking. The news I got is that Zhang Yan stayed near Zhongshan Kingdom and rushed over for about three days. In other words, if he was faster, he could attack them on the third night. Besides, the bandits would not have such strong military discipline, and they would attack them at night and then pursue them thousands of miles away...
While thinking, Xian Yufu came up: "Young Master Zhang Yanheishan Army is basically in his hands. It is said that there are hundreds of thousands of people. Currently, they stay in Zhongshan County, Changshan County, and part of Shangdang County. The court has no choice but to wipe out several times. In the end, they have a general of Zhonglang. After a few days of warmth, they probably will go to Changshan County and turn to Shangdang County to harvest food. These news are all speculations by the chamber of commerce, and basically these news."
Liu He took out the paper and wrote a few words on it. After a while, Liu He said: "It should be about three days before we reach Ding County, Zhongshan Kingdom, but we should slow down and take a break on the road. Then we attack Ding County at night, and use explosive bags to directly explode the city gate, break into the city and catch Zhang Yan directly. However, according to the news, they also have a lot of cavalry, so this time the king led them to charge. Governor Xianyu left behind five hundred cavalry and brought explosive bags to chase the other side."
Xian Yufu said, "A mere thief..."
"Stop! This bandit has been jumping around for nearly ten years in Zhongping. After ten years of thieves, the Yellow Turban Army has been played. They have not died. Do you think others have no level? Although others are bandits, they have nothing to do for nearly ten years. Even if you work hard to practice martial arts recently, you can't be careless. Only by catching the other party or letting the other party surrender, otherwise it would not be considered a win. It is best to capture alive, so you must arrange it outside." Liu He looked at the drawings of Ding County. A county town is not very good. You can enter at will from north to south.
Xian Yufu scratched his head and said, "This bandit will definitely go from Zhongshan County to Changshan County when frightened. The last general will lie on the road..."
Liu He nodded and said, "It's true, so it's better to use your brain than to be reckless? Think more about it in the future, making achievements is not easy. So... work hard."
Liu He drew on the drawing: "After passing Dingxian County, you will definitely go to Xinle. You will stop them halfway. If you can't stop them, you will go to Wuji, so you can just take one step and see three steps."
Xian Yufu snorted: "You still need to go to Wuji. On the way to Xinle, the general will definitely capture Zhang Yan alive."
"Be careful, don't think so much. You can use my identity to surrender them at critical moments. In short, as long as you can get this Zhang Yan, that person has something to do, and there are so many people who can use it. If you think more than 100,000 bandits, they are actually people with family members, and most of them will not be fighting power." The bandits always say hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands, but they are actually refugees with family members. To put it bluntly, they are just to scare the official, otherwise the Yellow Turban Army would not be chased by thousands of people.
Xian Yufu nodded and said, "Young Master, can you give me more explosive packs?" It's right. Liu He did experiment a few days before leaving. Outside the city, he brought Wang General and a few of Xian Yufu's personal soldiers. The power of that thing was naturally gratifying. No one would have thought that these big men were shocked by the sound of the explosion and could not pass for a long time.
Liu He didn't understand how lethal thunder was to the ancients in this era. It can be said without hesitation that if there is lightning around them, they will feel pressured. This is an era that believes in the theory of ghosts and gods, so this kind of thing similar to heavenly thunder really shocked them for a long time. Even if the experiment has been a long time, they are far from coming back to their senses.
"What do you want so much of this thing?" Liu He looked at him with a smile. After all, it was normal for them to like it as a new thing.
Xian Yufu scratched his head and said, "Of course, I asked two personal soldiers to ambush the road in advance. When they were about to come, they threw them over directly. This scares them, and then they will be much easier to pursue."
Liu He suddenly had a kind of thing. I was going around? This idea was quite open. Liu He nodded and said, "Then you take away fifty ones and watch them all the way. We have to blow up the city gates and then blow them up in the city... There are quite a lot of thieves, and we need to deal with them well. Secondly, we have to deal with Zhang Yang..."
The king also came here at this time: "Young Master... I will bring some of the last generals, and I will bring a few cavalry to the front to invade the battle. If they pursue us, the younger ones will blow them directly. The happier ones will blow them up. The younger ones are not good at martial arts, but the equestrian is still possible..." Since the stirrups and horseshoes, this riding technique has become much easier. They are good in themselves, and when they become familiar with the cavalry, they are definitely more than two levels stronger than before.
Liu He looked at him and said, "You have no problem using it, but the rules must not be forgotten. You must also make contributions, so just watch it yourself. March with all your might for three days, then directly take down Zhongshan Kingdom, and then immediately transfer the position to Shangdang County." Zhang Yang is not powerful yet, and Liu He has enough means to deal with them.
War should not implicate the people, but what Liu He wants to say is that after the war, it is best not to implicate the people. The infantry marched quickly behind with supplies, but the cavalry brought more than a day of food and set off directly. Liu He divided the 200 cavalry for Xianyufu, and when he was about to arrive, he would take the lead in ambushing, and take the king toward Ding County by himself.
I didn't dare to wait any further along, but fortunately, my own people were all dressed in official clothes, which made many passing people feel relieved. The official strength of the Han Dynasty was still very strong, and even the people were welcomed along the way. However, Liu He did not stop and went straight to Dingxian. The more people he saw, the faster the news leaked. Then the sneak attack effect that day was naturally worse. He must hit someone unexpectedly, otherwise it would be difficult for others to run away if he was dragged on the front.
Anyway, the bandits would never have thought that someone would give them unexpectedly from behind. No one would have thought that Liu He, the young man, could have brought troops out. Of course, it was mainly because Liu Yu had a very good reputation and had no private soldiers at all. So Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan were not afraid. Although he could climb the high ground and call for hundreds of thousands of soldiers to follow, following and fighting with elite soldiers was two different things.
After two days of fast journey, Liu He was jogging on the horse like a melon skin. I heard that riding too much horse will grind your thighs, but Liu He had nothing to put it on. He had been very careful in two days, but it still felt uncomfortable to grind it. Seeing that they were all rough and thick, Liu He wanted to slander people. Is this too much?
It was very close to Ding County at night, and it would definitely be possible to attack at night tomorrow night. Today, everyone was resting in the wild, and the more they went to the south, the snow was no longer visible. It was thought that it was a prelude to drought, and the next commemoration of Chang'an was a drought. It is said that Emperor Xian of Han lived a particularly miserable life, especially when Cao Cao gave the broth, the emperor's majesty disappeared. Of course, Emperor Xian of Han did not have any majesty...
"Young Master, we are resting here in Tang County today. When we walk slowly tomorrow afternoon, we will just arrive in Ding County. After a little rest, we can attack Ding County immediately." We were calculating the time along the way, and Xian Yufu was about to separate. This place should be just right...
Liu He looked at the simple map, nodded and said, "Let's separate after departure tomorrow. You can deploy in advance. Remember to cover yourself with hay or leather when hiding it. In short, just be careful."
