Chapter 9 Duke Zhuge (1)

Chapter 9 Zhuge Gong (1) ()

Shu got its dragon, Wu got its tiger, and Wei got its dog. People use this to describe the three heroes of Zhuge in Langya. Wei got its dog refers to Zhuge Dan. This dog is not a derogatory meaning, but a dog that speaks of merit.

In the past, Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang defeated Xiang Yu and took charge of the whole world. Xiao He was the most meritorious, and was named the marquis of qiu and had the most fief. All the ministers were dissatisfied. Liu Bang asked, "Do you know hunting?" Everyone said, "Do you know hunting." "Do you know hunting dogs? Everyone said, "Do you know hunting dogs?" Liu Bang said, "The hunting dogs are hunting dogs, and the hunting person who hunts prey is the hunter. Now you have obtained countless contributions, and they are the dogs, and Xiao He is the master who commands you and plans to plan. How can the master dogs be compared with the masters?"

Zhuge Dan was the hero of Wei. After experiencing the ups and downs of the officialdom, Zhuge Dan was already a member of the Wei State's Duzhen area. Huainan was located in Yangzhou, located in the border area, connected to Xuyu in the north and the Yangtze River in the south. It was separated by a water. It was the Wu State, and has always been a place for heavy troops to accumulate. Since the founding of Cao Wei, Huainan has experienced two large rebellions, one by Wang Ling, the other by Wu Qiu Jian and Wen Qin. After Zhuge Dan participated in the two quelling rebellions, the Wei State was named the Marquis of Gaoping, the General of the East, and the Three Divisions of Yitong, responsible for guarding Huainan.

Zhuge Dan, Xiahou Xuan, Deng Fei and others were as close as brothers, and they had passed away for a long time. When they saw Wang Ling and Wu Qiu Jian's fate, they felt uneasy. Sikong of Wei State passed away, so the court conquered Zhuge Dan into the court as Sikong. Although Sikong was a high-ranking vocation, he had no real power, and the power of the Wei State is now in the hands of Sima Zhao. Zhuge Dan can still hold military power outside and can be safe, and entering the court is like a lamb. Moreover, his close friends Xiahou Xuan, Deng Fei and others were all harmed by the Sima family. Zhuge Dan hesitated and decided to refuse to enter the court and cede the land and protect himself.

On this day, smoke and dust were rolling outside Yangzhou City. After discovering it, the guard of the East Gate hurriedly sent someone to inform the governor Lelin, and while urging everyone to be on guard. Soon, a team of cavalry entered the sight. The guard general observed the banner, but it was the banner of Zhuge Dan, the general of the East. Everyone was puzzled. Zhuge Dan has always been in charge of Shouchun, so why did he come to Yangzhou? He wondered, he dared not offend Zhuge Dan. Who in the Huainan area did not hear of Zhuge Gong's reputation? Let's wait for the governor of Yangzhou Lelin to come and ask in person.

Le Lin is the only son of the famous general Le Jin. Le Jin and Zhang Liao and Li Dian were stationed in Hefei, defeating the 100,000 troops of Sun Quan of the Eastern Wu. After Xiaoyaojin, he almost killed Sun Quan in the battle, and is still talked about today. After Le Jin's death, Le Lin inherited Le Jin's title and made rapid progress in officialdom. Now he is arranged by Sima to take charge of Yangzhou with Zhuge Dan.

Wu and Wei divided Yangzhou into two parts. The Yangzhou capital under the jurisdiction of Wei was Shouchun, which was under the jurisdiction of Huainan and Lujiang. Zhuge Dan was in charge of Huainan and Le Lin was in charge of Lujiang. One was the General of the East, the One was the Governor of Yangzhou; the other was the troops stationed in the local area by the central government, and the other was the local army of Yangzhou. Not only did the two restrain each other, but the military strength of Lujiang was even above Huainan. Even in the Huainan area, Zhuge Dan was limited in being able to mobilize the army. Only when the imperial court granted the tiger talisman can he fully command all the troops in the area.

This was not specially designed for Zhuge Dan, but a system that had been around for a long time. At that time, Wang Ling, as a general of chariots, supervised the military of Yangzhou and ruled the two places by one. His power was far greater than that of Zhuge Dan today. However, because there was no tiger talisman, he could not mobilize all the troops. When Sima Yi's army came to fight, only thousands of troops in the headquarters could command, and eventually surrender without fighting. The lessons of the past are necessary, and he must first grasp the military power of the two places before he can have the capital to do things.

At this time, Le Lin, the governor of Yangzhou, also rushed to the city tower. Seeing that it was Zhuge Dan, he secretly demanded that the guard general be a big deal. However, since Zhuge Gongxu came to visit, he should go out to greet him. Thinking of this, he turned around and went downstairs to greet him. Suddenly, his heart moved and turned around and looked again. His heart was beating wildly. There were more than a thousand cavalrymen behind Zhuge Dan, and there were still infantrymen behind the cavalry. At one glance, there were about two or three thousand. Zhuge Dan's headquarters was only six or seven thousand, and there were nearly five thousand infantrymen under the city. Le Lin was unclear for a moment and had doubts.

"Zhuge Zhengdong led his men to come, but there was an enemy situation?" A man stood upright at the city gate.

When Zhuge Dan saw Le Lin on the city tower and had no intention of going out of the city to welcome him, he secretly defended himself and raised his head and said, "Dan came here after receiving the order to promulgate the edict, why didn't Leyangzhou see you?" As he spoke, the group approached the suspension bridge.

"Since it is Xuanzhao, why are the troops accompanying?" The questioner saw Zhuge Dan seemingly terrified, surrounded by cavalry, and the troops followed closely behind him, strode forward and shouted again: "Where is the envoy of the court?"

When Zhuge Dan and his group heard the sound, Li ignored his legs and gently clamped the horse's belly and accelerated to cross the suspension bridge. The questioner was at the gate of the city. Seeing Zhuge Dan and others rushing towards him as if nothing had happened, he quickly dodged and dodged. The horse passed by, and the cavalry behind him rushed up and entered the gate of the city.

Le Lin suddenly felt something was wrong when he watched the city tower. After Zhuge Dan entered the city, he turned over and dismounted, stepped onto the city tower, and rushed straight to him. The infantry and cavalry belonged to him surrounded the city tower. Le Lin felt guilty. Seeing this, he didn't know what happened, so he turned around and ran away. Zhuge Dan was not in a hurry, pressing his sword in his hand and chasing him slowly. Seeing the master general running up the city tower, Zhuge Dan was chasing him from behind, he woke up, but unfortunately it was too late. Zhuge Dan's general Zhang Shuo, Shi Quan, led his soldiers to disarm the Yangzhou garrison one by one.

The city gate asked Zhuge Dan's army to rebel when he saw this situation. Seeing this, he called for rebellion. Li Ping, the general of Zhuge Dan who was entering the city, shot him out of the chest and fell to the ground and died.

When he ran to the top of the city tower, Le Lin had no choice but to see that under the city tower, Zhuge Dan's Huainan army was covered with Zhuge Dan's Huainan army, and his Yangzhou army was completely controlled. Several Huainan army in the distance rushed to all directions, and Yangzhou was over. After he became enlightened, Zhuge Dan climbed to the top floor with a long sword in his hand, looking at himself as if he was looking at a dead person.

"Public break...public break..." Before Le Lin could say anything, Zhuge Dan raised his sword and fell, and Le Lin died instantly.

The Sima family lackey was killed, so she cut off Lelin's head and ordered people to pass on the heads from all directions. Soon, various troops came to report that Yangzhou City had been pacified and all the defenders surrendered.

After Yangzhou was decided, Zhuge Dan left his subordinate Li Ping to guard Yangzhou City, and was responsible for the recruitment of soldiers from all counties and counties in Yangzhou. He returned to Shouchun. Zhuge Dan's reputation was great, and all the scholars and people were respectful. In just a few days, he had already recruited Lianghuai and most of the soldiers in Yangzhou. Many of Zhuge Dan's old subordinates came to take the initiative to surrender.

In addition to the defenders, there were military farms in Huainan and Huainan and the targets of Zhuge Dan to win over and collect. At that time, the imperial court was preparing to rush to farm. After investigation, Deng Ai believed that the two Huainan land had "a good field and water, which was not enough to make the land advantage. It was appropriate to open rivers and canals to divert water and irrigate, accumulate military rations, and also transport grains to transport grains." Therefore, Sima Yi agreed with "Jihe Theory". From then on, the two Huainan lands had great water conservancy and broadly stationed military fields, which was a prosperous scene. The two Huainan army had sufficient food and no water damage, and had bumper harvests year after year. This was why the previous guards gave the capital to rebel. There were food, people, and important areas on the border, and anyone would have imagined it.

The so-called military farming refers to the establishment of a battalion every five miles, called the military farming camp, with 60 soldiers serving as a battalion, who is responsible for guarding the local area while garrisoning. Compared with ordinary defenders, the military farming army must be responsible for farming and cannot leave the military farming at will. It is conceivable that the military farming army is naturally willing to respond.

Zhang Shuo led 2,000 infantrymen to Xia Cai and incorporated Xia Cai's guards. It was already evening when Xia Cai was in the evening. Seeing that the city gate was closed, he asked the soldiers to call the door. The soldiers shouted at the top of the city for a long time before someone appeared on the top of the city.

"Who is coming?"

"Zhang Shuo, the general under the tent of the Great General of the East, was ordered to enter Xia Cai and open the city gate quickly!"

"I wonder if the general has documents?"

"Mr. Zhuge ordered to open the door quickly and let me wait in. If you dare to disobey the military order, don't blame my general for being ruthless!"

"Don't hide it from me, General Zhang, I will recognize it."

Zhang Shuo led the army to incorporate them all the way, but he had never encountered such a situation. He couldn't help but be furious. I ran all day and didn't have any food to eat. He didn't even know me. He dared to make things difficult for me and wait for me to come to the city to discount your dog legs. He immediately rushed to the front of the city, took the torch from his servants, and illuminated himself and said, "Call Cai Ling to come and answer. I am Zhang Shuo, can you recognize it?"

When the people in the city saw that Zhang Shuo was getting closer, they held up the torch again. They saw it clearly and raised their hands and raised their bows to make an arrow. Zhang Shuo did not expect such a thing to happen on his territory. It was too late to avoid it when he hurriedly avoided it. He hit the shoulder and turned over and fell off the horse. Seeing this, the soldiers behind him hurried forward and dragged Zhang Shuo back with all his might.

In the war, the counties and counties along the way were ordered to surrender immediately. Zhang Shuo was wearing casual clothes, and the arrow was heavy and he was very injured. When the troops were panicked, the archer had already stepped down from the city tower and turned over to the horse. As soon as the city gate opened, he held a machete and rushed out first, hitting Zhang Shuo's flag and shouted, "Do you know Pang Hui?" Zhang Shuo heard that it was Pang Hui, and he secretly shouted that it was not good, so he rushed the army forward to resist Pang Hui, and his personal soldiers took him back into the military formation.

This Pang Hui was the beloved son of Pang De, the general of Yi. Pang Dezhong and Yong would rather die than surrender to Guan Yu, but was eventually killed. Yu Jin turned his back on the battlefield and survived his life. Cao Cao once lamented, "Yu Jin followed me for thirty years, but he did not mean to deal with difficulties in the face of danger, but was not as good as Pang De!" So he treated Pang Hui's brothers well. When Cao Pi ascended the throne, he posthumously named Pang De as Zhuang Marquis to show his power. When Pang Hui grew up, he was quite brave and fierce, leading the way, and brave the three armies. He made great contributions in several battles, and was appointed as the General Pingkou and the Marquis of Linweiting. He was originally stationed in Xincheng, but for some reason he appeared in Xia Cai.

Pang Hui took the lead, and the flesh and blood flew around the sword, killing the soldiers frightened. There were only more than 30 cavalry behind him, and they clashed in Zhang Shuo's army, as if they were entering a no-man. Zhang Shuo was injured and did not dare to respond, but only asked his confidants to take him back. The other generals heard that it was Pang Hui, and knew that it was hard to be brave, so they were afraid that they would not be able to avoid it, so they were even more unintentional to command. Pang Hui saw the enemy's scattered roar and turned around. Seeing this, the Wei army behind him did not dare to stop him. Pang Hui brought more than 30 cavalry to break through the siege without any effort.

Poor Zhang Shuo led two thousand infantrymen and did not stop dozens of Pang Hui. He was seriously injured. He would be laughed at when he spread it out. Zhang Shuo was furious and ignored his injuries. He ordered the troops to steal the city immediately. He also sent people to report to Zhuge Dan and various counties along the way to arrest Pang Hui.
