Chapter 262 Leaving
Tian Chou saw this and said, "Your Excellency, although General Jia's words are reasonable, it is worth the death of a small number of people in exchange for victory in the battle. If the rebels take advantage of the war, won't more people suffer from the war?"
Jia Rong looked surprised. He didn't expect that the civil servants under Liu Yu's command were still good, and the analysis of the war was reasonable.
Seeing that Liu Yu turned his eyes to himself, Jia Rong said, "What Lord Wei and Lord Tian said is all reasonable, but our army is only 50,000, while the enemy is 200,000. The city of Changping is low. Our army has no weapon to defend the city, and there are not many people in the city."
"It can be said that it is an empty city. It doesn't make much sense to defend an empty city. Besides, our army has more than 8,000 cavalry, and we don't have the strength to fight. I hope you think twice."
Gongsun Zan echoed and said, "General Jia's words are very true. How can the little rebels talk about it? When the cavalry comes, they will definitely run away in confusion." Many generals echoed when they heard the words.
Seeing that Gongsun Zan agreed with Jia Rong's statement, Liu Yu frowned slightly.
Wei You said, "When you go out of the city to fight, the enemy's numerical advantage will become greater, and it will be more unfavorable to our army."
Gongsun Zang said angrily, "If you go out of the city to fight, Bai Mayi will be the front."
Jia Rong smiled and said, "Lord Wei misunderstood what I meant. He used cavalry to deal with the rebels, and our army retreated to Ji City to defend. The wall of Ji City is high, and it is difficult for the enemy to break through."
When Liu Yu heard the words, his face immediately pulled down and said angrily, "A group of nonsense, traitors make trouble. How can we wait for the rookie to escape without fighting? I am determined to defend Changping. The city is in the city, and the city is broken and people are dead. Please don't repeat it. As for the matter of going out of the city to fight, it is handed over to General Gongsun."
Liu Yu's generous statement made the civil and military officials in Youzhou a little excited. Jia Rong's statement of retreating to Jicheng seemed incomparable to them, and they said in unison, "Your excellency is wise!" Gongsun Zang, who just agreed that Jia Rong went out of the city to fight, was also among them. It seems that Jia Rong's ideas are difficult to be accepted by officials in the Han Dynasty.
The gains and losses of one city and one pool do not represent anything. Keeping the strength of the army is the best choice.
Liu Yu's words were supported by many people, but Jia Rong was hung there. Many generals looked at Jia Rong with a trace of disdain. It was very humiliating to retreat without fighting. Even the aura of the famous general on Jia Rong's head was much dimmed because of this matter.
Jia Rong's face is a little ugly. In the Youzhou Army, he can stand here with the title of a famous general. Here, Jia Rong's strength is very weak, which does not mean that he can stand Liu Yu's face to face.
Lv Bu behind him stood up proudly and said, "At the beginning, Xianbei was rampant. My eldest brother led more than 400 people to kill nearly 2,000 people, and he would be afraid of small rebels."
"It's not credible to have an empty mouth!" Xian Yuyin snorted coldly.
Jia Rong waved his hand to stop Lv Bu and said, "Lord Liu is commendable!"
Everyone looked at Jia Rong in surprise. Which general was not a strong-blooded person, and he could never stand Liu Yu's public sarcasm on anyone.
Liu Yu also realized that the words just now were a little too extreme and looked at Jia Rong with an apologetic look.
"Rong is not feeling well, so he will leave first." The tone is euphemistic, but Jia Rong does not have any salute gesture. Anyway, Liu Yu is the royal family and Youzhou herdsman. In terms of level, Jia Rong is still several grades away.
Jia Rong turned around and brushed his sleeves and left.
Lv Bu, Jiang Yu and other generals followed.
Gongsun Zant tried to stop him, but was dissuaded by the generals around him.
Liu Yu's face was as heavy as water, and he snorted coldly, "You work hard together to defend Changping City and wait to defeat the rebels. I will ask for your credit in front of the emperor."
"No!" Everyone responded with a bang.
It is an uncertain fact that there is a lack of cavalry in Zhang Ju's army, and the Wuhuan people have just captured Youbeiping, and it is difficult to take into account the war in Changping for a while. With the mobility of the cavalry, it is the best strategy to attack from afar and cut off the rebel food, and it is not of much use to leave the cavalry in the city.
After that, Jia Rong also realized that his behavior in front of Liu Yu was a little extreme, but there was no trace of repentance. "Don't do what you don't want to do to others." At least he is a famous general. How can he not have a temper? Jia Rong thought to himself.
The next day, Jia Rong led 1,200 cavalry to replenish the grain and fodder, and decisively asked Liu Yu to resign.
The open gun is easy to hide, and the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent. Liu Yu may be a good man, which does not mean that the civil generals under his command are the same. Different Taoism does not work together. Jia Rong decided to lead the army back. History is doomed to the demise of Zhang Ju. What is he doing with such a big heart? It's better to go back to Jincheng to run his own nest.
Hearing Jia Rong's resignation, Gongsun Zan arrived in a hurry and said eagerly, "Zhiyuan, there are 200,000 rebels outside the city, and there are only more than 1,000 people in Zhiyuan. Don't take risks alone. Why should you be angry with Lord Liu? Wait for me to plead for Zhiyuan."
Jia Rong smiled and said, "Bokui is too worried. Zhang Ju is destined not to last long. Jincheng has a lot of affairs. I have been away from Jincheng for more than half a year. It's time to go back."
Gongsun Zan saw that Jia Rong had made up his mind and sighed, "Protect yourself on the road to Zhiyuan."
"I met Zhiyuan, and I didn't have anything to give away for my brother. I got this war horse by chance. Shenjun is abnormal. Today, I gave Zhiyuan, which is also a BMW hero."
Jia Rong was slightly moved. After getting along with him for so long, Gongsun Zang is still very good and acts openly.
"Thank you for your kindness, brother Bo Gui. In this case, I'm ashamed."
Before leaving, Jia Rong said meaningfully, "Brother Bo Kui, soldiers are the basics of the army. They not only require soldiers to be banned, but also have clear rewards and punishments."
Gongsun Zan looked a little confused, and he still held his fist and said, "I have written down Zhiyuan's words."
Jia Rong patted the horse's belly and rode out of the north gate first. Changping City in sight became smaller and smaller.
The horse sent by Gongsun Zan was really good. Not to mention his posture, he ran, and the bumps on the back of the horse were very small, which attracted Lv Bu, Zhao Yun and others to look sideways.
After resting in Jicheng for three days, Jia Rong led the army to set out. The difference was that Jia Rong turned into the escort of the caravan.
The caravan escorted belongs to Jincheng. I heard that Jia Rong wants to lead the army to escort. The person in charge of Youzhou Xianlian Pavilion purchased a lot of goods needed by Jincheng. The caravan is escorted by Jia Rong, which is absolutely safe.
The cavalry that can use more than 1,000 people at a time is doomed that no one dares to provoke this caravan.
Jia Rong couldn't bear to look directly at the tragic situation of the people along the way. The route chosen by the team was to pass through Jizhou and Si Li, and then return to Liangzhou. This route was actually for the caravan to buy goods along the way.
Zhang Chun was originally the prime minister of Zhongshan. After Zhang Ju united with a blatant rebellion, it was the Jizhou people who first suffered the disaster. For the submissive counties, Zhang Chun sent troops to garrison, and the villages along the way were the best targets for the rebels. After years of war, even the rich Jizhou was not too With more surplus food, Zhang Ju treated his soldiers well, and many of the people who were forced by life chose to join, so the scale of the rebels was getting bigger and bigger.
