Chapter 3 Another rice bucket?
After counting, to the hundred miles of Yuyuanguan, the Wancheng army camped in a small village called Yidi.
This is an abandoned village, which is obviously affected by the flames of war from the traces. The stone walls collapsed randomly everywhere, the debris piled up everywhere, and the wooden beams and columns were scorched everywhere. Looking around, it was scorched black, and only a few green buds appeared in a few places.
Wancheng soldiers guarded the key road at the entrance of the village, set up fences and refused horses. There were sentries around high places, and more than a dozen troops of soldiers patroled back and forth carefully.
He Chen strolled around the village accompanied by Wen Ping, Li Yan and Yan Ming.
June in the Central Plains is extremely sultry. Even if it is cloudy, it makes people feel uncertain. He Chen looked up into the distance. In the gray sky, there were still many eagles spreading their wings; the mountains in the distance covered the distant sight. Li Yan's worried voice came to his ear and said, "City order, do you really want to get out of the gate?"
He Chen withdrew his mind, took off his helmet, spit out a sigh of boredom, and meditated for a moment. Then he slowly said, "This is also a helpless move. Now the wind and clouds in Kyoto are surging, and the situation is complicated and confusing. General He and the eunuch may burst into a new round of conflict at any time. Time is life. When we arrive in Luoyang early, we can also clean up the eous party early, and let the court calm down and circulate the decrees. In fact, there are still some things that He Chen can't say. Now it is the beginning of June. In history, He Jin was killed by Zhang Rang's eunuch and other fraudulent empress dowager to enter the palace. Therefore, in order not to have any accidents, I must take the nearest journey. If you change the route at this time, first of all, time may not be too late, because there will be a lot of detours. Second, even if there is no problem in time, then the war is war and peace, and it is still an unknown road.
In fact, Li Yan also understands this truth, but he can't bear to look at He Chen's son who worked hard to pull up
Soldiers, but they consume before the pass that they can't see the chance of winning in this short period of time. He could only say helplessly, "If there is really no other way, then you can only take it wisely and not be defeated."
He Chen nodded and said with a heavy smile, "That's exactly what I mean. The order of this city coincides with the square.
"Yanyuankou is located in the yin of Songyue. It is said that it was chiseled by Dayu to control the water. It is an important place for the soldiers of all dynasties. It is also a shortcut to Luo and Yan to Ru, Ying and Xiang. There is an Elingkou in Kansai, with thousands of ropeways in the north. The mountains and rocks are steep, and it is easy to attack. Since the rise of the male bees in the first year of Zhongping and endangering Kyoto, General He has set up the Yuan Pass, which is the head of the eight passes. However, the general miscalculated for a while, so that he led to the capital, but let Duan Shi guard it, which was really stifling.
He Chen shook and sighed: "It seems to be a simple guard, but it is the epitome of the conspiracy in the court. The general has the power and the full support of the Nanyang families. If you control the main road of the capital in the north, you can waving troops directly to Luoyang, and you can retreat and avoid Jing Xiang to defend. Of course, it's not difficult for people to sleep and eat. It's reasonable to fight.
Li Yanruo said with a feeling, "The city order is far-reaching, but my subordinates didn't think of this."
"Now I don't know what's going on in detail. I don't know if the details sent by Lv Chang have been mixed up?" He Chen said annoyedly.
"Ah." Li Yan sighed again.
"What's the gate? I have a brother who is there to talk about it. At this time, Yan Ming said.
"Ah." Yan Ming, who was cold, was ugly and his big head suddenly leaned over. His voice was like thunder, his appearance was like a ghost, and the blood plate cracked to the root of his ears, which was so ugly and frightening. Li Yan was obviously shocked and screamed. Then he was furious and scolded, "Ugly ghost, can you not be so haunted in the future?"
Yan Ming cracked his big mouth, kept scratching his head, and giggled, "Ningy, I didn't mean it."
Li Yan fell down and said angrily, "How many times have I told you, don't call me a nerd."
Yan Ming was not convinced. It was only under He Chen's sharp eyes that he muttered, "Who let you read that broken book all day long? There is no delicious bun in that broken book. You're not a nerd, so what is it?
This guy is really a living treasure. He Chen almost laughed. Looking at Li Yanqi's arms trembling, he couldn't help comforting him, "This is a determined person. What's the difference between him?"
"Yan Ming, what's your brother's name?" He Chen asked with great interest.
"That man is called Yu Shi."
Another cannon fodder general. According to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Yu She was originally a general of Yuan Shu's army. When the princes rose up against Dong Zhuo, Yu She fought with Dong Zhuo's general Hua Xiong. In less than three rounds, he was killed by Hua Xiong. However, the meat on the mosquito's leg is also meat. Although this guy is not a brave general, the force will not be much worse if he can become a "General". Besides, there are only a few ** in the world, and it can be called the backbone.
"Yan Ming, can you go and lobby your brothers to help the city?"
"Are you full?" Yan Ming is not stupid. Before he called, he first sought benefits for his brother.
"Isn't it? Does he eat as much as you do? He Chen couldn't laugh or cry. He had to find a few of them by himself.
"Of course, otherwise how can I call you brother?" Yan Ming giggled.
"Well, it's true that things are gathered by kind, and people are divided into groups." Li Yan finally found an opportunity and was angry. Obviously, he had not been angry yet and hit Yan Mingdao.
Zhi Yanming didn't care at all, but just cracked his mouth and giggled there.
"Then you can go to the pass. Whether you can persuade him to succeed or not, you must be careful." He Chen told him carefully.
"Don't worry, I'm familiar with you. Seven aunts and eight aunts recognize me." Yan Ming patted his chest loudly.
"Then go back as soon as possible."
Looking at Yan Ming leaving excitedly, Li Yan was worried and said, "City Order, no matter what my subordinates think, I feel that this big one is not very reliable. It's better for the general to prepare with both hands."
"Hehe, of course, don't worry about this." He Chen nodded.
After three days, the soldiers of Wancheng came to the customs.
Inside the gate.
The general is a middle-aged man with a fat face and round as a ball. At this time, he was sitting on the middle hall with a golden knife. There were maids on both sides who gently massaged and pinched him. There were a lot of seasonal fruits on the side, and they were eating deliciously.
The subordinates of the hall stand on both sides, and they do not squint.
"Do you have any opinion that He Chen dares to lead troops to Luoyang?" The segmental voice is a little slender, like a lack of breath, which is obviously hollowed out by wine.
"General Duan, He Chen is He Jin's brother-in-law. This time, the soldiers of Wancheng must be ordered by He Jin to support Kyoto. In the opinion of subordinates, don't let them enter the customs.
"Bullshit, I naturally know that my brother, Lord Zhang and others are quarreling with He Jin. If He Chen is allowed to enter the gate, he will not stab my brother in the back? You have enjoyed it enough. Now it's a trick to use people. Who can lead the troops to retreat from the enemy today?
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, but no one answered for a while.
"Rice buckets, people who are greedy and afraid of death, drinking and playing with women, you scramble one by one. Why are you dumb at the critical moment?" Duan Shi was furious and rudely pushed the two maids away and said.
"General, it's not that the last general is afraid of death. It's actually the danger of the pass. It's for the world's powerful pass. As long as we can't defend the pass, He Chen and others can't stand it."
"The king's general's words are very true." Everyone's postscript.
Duan Shiqi's face trembled and said, "In the court, my brother is shooting a secret arrow in He Jinming. If you can kill and repel He's army at this time, you can suppress He Jin's arrogance, second, support my brother's momentum, and let the world know my prestige. Which of you dares to fight? As long as you return from victory, I will present it truthfully and be the first.
"General Duan, my subordinates are willing to lead troops out of the city to fight." Under the reward, there must be a brave man. Sure enough, someone came out loudly.
