Chapter 342 Under the City
"What does Zhiyuan need me, an old man, do? Although it is clear, I often go to the house to see Yan'er." Cai Yong told him before he went.
Jia Rong felt that there was a warm current slowly flowing in his heart. There was a fraudulent Luyang everywhere. It was not easy to find a real concern, although this old man sometimes opposed himself.
Under the order of Jia Rong, all the soldiers of Hulao guan, Meng Jinguan and Pingjin Pass were evacuated to Luyang City.
Without Jia Rong's persuasion, after learning the news of Dong Zhuo's death, Zang Ba immediately led his subordinates to join the Xiliang Army. None of Zang Ba's soldiers objected. They were left in the tiger prison. To put it bluntly, they were abandoned there. They came back by chance. Naturally, they remembered Jia Rong's good things in the past, although this person also had some Problems, but these problems seem to have become advantages after joining the Xiliang Army. No soldier will dislike that the master is too good to them.
Dong Zhuo's funeral is very grand. This figure who dominated the Han Dynasty has completely disappeared into the long river of history. Perhaps a few years later, later people will think of Dong Zhuo. It's just a few simple comments in history books. If you look at the whole history, you can leave only a few words in history books. How many heroes and great strategies. Generations squeezed their heads and wanted to occupy a little place in it, and there were many amazing people among them.
Generals of the Xiliang Army and Generals of Dong Jun all participated in Dong Zhuo's funeral. Looking at the presence of officials in the court, Jia Rong smiled secretly and said, "It seems that Dong Zhuo is not so unpopular in the court."
After Dong Zhuo's death, Jia Rong took advantage of the situation and replaced Dong Zhuo's position in the court. In a day, tens of thousands of people brought swords into the dynasty and met the Emperor of Han without worship.
Half a month later, all the troops of the 18 princes gathered outside the city of Luyang City. Except for the soldiers stationed at checkpoints along the way and the soldiers who died during the siege, the coalition totaled more than 100,000 people, and the banners covered the sky and the sun for dozens of miles.
All the gates of Luyang are tightly closed, and there are more soldiers patrolling the streets than ever before.
Dong Jun and Xiliang Army merged. After the inspection of the whole army, the generals at the grassroots level of the army were finalized. The generals of the army were all more capable than ordinary soldiers. The selection process was made public, so that the soldiers could feel the existence of justice.
Looking at his former subordinates becoming their own bosses, many soldiers remembered Jia Rong's sentence on the high platform, "The capable, the weak!"
In the army, the strong are respected. There is nothing wrong with the selection of the Xiliang Army. Under the leadership of the generals, the training is carried out in an orderly manner. Under the system of selecting talents in the Xiliang Army, few people are willing to be a soldier who does nothing. In the past, it was not that they were unwilling to fight for, but that the system was there. Let it go.
The allied forces gathered outside the city did not make the soldiers in the city panic. After experiencing the battle of Hu prison, the generals and soldiers were full of confidence in Jia Rong and could hold the pace of the 80,000-person attack of the coalition with more than 10,000 people, let alone now.
The vassals and soldiers came to Luyang, and there were a lot of restless people in the court. The strength of these families gathered together should not be underestimated. The Xiucai rebelled for three years. The officials of the family were not simple Xiucai. They were all Xiucais holding private soldiers. As soon as the princes came outside the city of Yueyang City, the family organized a night attack on the city gate. However, it was resisted by the brave Xiliang army, and all the families that were identified after the incident were killed without any appeasement.
The food and fodder in Luoyang City is enough for the defenders in the city for a year. Jia Rong was not in a hurry for a while, and slowly consumed with the princes until all the princes were exhausted.
The princes adopted the method of encircling the three missing one, surrounding the three walls of Luoyang, leaving only one free place, and the tactics are very good.
"Lord, even if the city is high and thick and surrounded by the allied forces, it is just a lonely city. As the saying goes, a gentleman does not put himself in danger. If the princes are single-into destroy our army and cut off our retreat, it will be in danger." Jia Xu persuaded in a low voice.
Jia Rong was shocked when he heard the words. No wonder that Dong Zhuo in the Three Kingdoms saw that the allied forces would take the emperor to flee. It turned out to be this truth. The allied forces had just gathered outside Luoyang City, busy celebrating and singing at night. They didn't want to attack the city at all. I heard that there was Jia Rong in the city. No one was willing to come forward.
The only concern in Luoyang City is Cai Yan. His relationship with Cai Yan is like a betrothrony in the future world, only the last step of marriage.
"Wen He, in your opinion, take the time to prepare everything. Remember that this matter needs to be done quietly." Jia Rong told him.
Jia Xu looked directly at Jia Rong and said slowly, "I don't know what the master's plan is to do after he withdraws from Luoyang?"
"What does the text mean?"
"If the lord is willing to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty and assist the current emperor, he will definitely leave his name in history and achieve immortal fame."
"What else?"
Jia Xu smiled and said, "Otherwise, our army will occupy the land of Guanzhong and wait for the opportunity. The lord's prestige in Liangzhou is unmatched. The army is everywhere, and the people do not eat wine and drink to welcome each other. They stick to the land in the pass. They can take Liangzhou and Yizhou. If the princes come to attack, they only need to defend the Hangu Pass, then the princes of the world can't advance. This It's the business of the king.
Jia Rong pondered for a long time and said slowly, "Wen He? I don't know how to treat today's emperor in this way?"
"This matter is easy to bring the emperor to the western capital. At that time, all officials will inevitably follow. With just one imperial edict, the princes of the world can be in chaos. Who doesn't want to be recognized by the imperial court? There are so many ambitious people in the world."
"Bearing the emperor to order the princes?" Jia Rong asked.
Jia Xu clap his hands and praised, "The Lord's words are very true. In our hands, the emperor has mastered the great righteousness, where the emperor is, where the great righteousness is, how many people are restless in the world, and there are endless people who compliment the Lord."
A flash of excitement flashed in Jia Rong's eyes. "This matter is done by Wen He."
"No!" Jia Xu bowed to take the order.
"It is said that there is a lot of money and jewelry in the imperial mausoleum of the Han Dynasty. I don't know if the lord is interested?" Jia Xu said.
Jia Rong thought for a long time and nodded, "Well, the Xiliang Army will expand its army again, and the grain and grass weapons will be a huge consumption." The treasure under it will only be buried.
Jia Xu bowed and left. In his heart, he was the first choice that was most beneficial to the Xiliang Army. Choosing Jia Rong also meant that some great righteousness should be abandoned. As a top counselor, Jia Xu had such an awareness that the influence of the Han Dynasty in the world was very great. It was just the heart of an ordinary businessman's family. It was the soldiers who could really dominate the world. Right.
In the coalition of princes, all kinds of princes gathered in the big tent of the Chinese army and looked at Yuan Shao with burning eyes.
"With your concerted efforts, the allied forces arrived at the capital. According to the detective's report, Dong Zhuo was assassinated a few days ago. There was only the Xiliang army in the city. I don't know what good strategy you have to break the enemy?" Looking at the princes in the account, Yuan Shao said excitedly.
"In my opinion, it is better not to act rashly by the allied forces. Jia Rong can defend the tiger's prison with more than 10,000 people, which shows his ability. What's more, it is also the high wall of Luyang City. It's not a day's work to capture the capital. This matter can only be done slowly." Yuan Shu stroked his beard, which was quite a wise man.
Yuan Shu spoke, and the princes of Yuan Shu echoed one after another.
These words were told by Yuan Shu's counselor, so he showed up in front of the princes.
"General Yuan's words are not good. There are only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city, and there are 100,000 people in our allied army. The general's words are to increase other people's ambition and destroy his own prestige." Bao Xin retorted.
Yuan Shu immediately pulled down his face and pointed to Bao Xin, "In this case, let's see how Captain Bao attacks the Xiliang Army in the city."
The princes in the account are talking about it. Yuan Shao's face is not very good. Yuan Shu's words are obviously attacking Bao Zhong, and Bao Zhong has always been his follower. If Yuan Shu is allowed to do so, who is willing to follow him?
"Highway, don't talk nonsense." Yuan Shao's tone was a little angry.
"General Bao's words are reasonable, and this matter is still discussed again. The high wall of Luyang City is thick, and there is also an elite Xiliang army in the city. It should be taken slowly." Yuan Shao comforted.
Cao Cao said to the public, "Lord, there is a plan to destroy the Western Liang army."
Yuan Shaoxi said, "Meng De said it clearly." If you say who he, the leader of the alliance, is most thinking about is not the Emperor of the Han Dynasty or the country of the Han Dynasty, but the brave and good Xiliang Army.
"The Xiliang army is the supporter, Luoyang. Under the siege of the allied army of 100,000 troops, Luoyang has become an isolated city. The alliance leader only needs to send a large army to besiege Luoyang and block its retreat. After the Xiliang army is exhausted, it will perish."
Before Yuan Shao's response, the person under the account retorted: "General Cao's words can be killed, but he doesn't know that the emperor is still in Luoyang City today, and he will besiege Luoyang again. If the Xiliang army is a dead fish, the net will be broken, the saint is in danger, and the Han River and mountains are in danger."
The princes in the tent heard Cao Cao's theory of eliminating the Xiliang Army and then heard the rebuttal. After thinking about it, they couldn't help taking a breath. According to Cao Cao Cao's practice, the Xiliang army was destroyed, but the royal family would also be finished. At the same time, they were also buried with the families in the city. These foreign generals were inextricably close to the families in the city. No, the Xiliang army will not be allowed to do anything wrong in the city.
Except for Cao Cao, the princes in the account voted unanimously.
Yuan Shao's expression is constantly changing. "It's not a day's achievement to attack the Xiliang Army. After you return to the camp, think about it."
"Lord, there is a plan for a humble position." Yuan Qianbai, the governor of the north, said, "Allies need to attack the city is only an opportunity. There are twelve gates in Luoyang City. As the saying goes, one gate is opened, and Luyang City is declared to be broken."
"Write more words of persuasion on the silk, tie the arrows and shoot into the city, and assist the allies to make great profits. In a few days, it will definitely spread in Luoyang City."
Yuan Shaoxi said, "This matter will be handled by General Yuan. If you can break through Luoyang, General Yuan will be the first."
Yuan Qian bowed and agreed, with excitement on his face. He could show off in front of all the princes. Yuan Qian felt very good.
After listening to Yuan Qian's words, the princes in the account treated him with new eyes. Such a strategy is a good strategy for the siege of the city.
Yuan Qian took a proud look at the princes in the account and walked back to his original position.
