Chapter 1,275: Lu Bu Is Missing

According to the discussion between Wei's monarchs and ministers, Wei first cooperated with the Zhao army to capture the three northern counties, and then King Zhao sent about 30,000 cavalry to assist Wei in sending troops to Wei County, while Qi and Wu launched attacks on the Yan and Yu states of Tang respectively. However, although the two countries agreed to jointly dispatch troops, they both demanded that Wei send troops first. The two countries would only attack the Tang army if they were sure that the war between Wei and Tang had begun.

Although Yuan Shao was helpless, he also knew that Qi and Wu did not trust each other. If he wanted to reach a consensus, he must first attract the attention of Tang State before Qi State would take action. Once Qi State also went to war with Tang State, Wu State would The army would eventually send troops, so after the New Year, Wei State began to quietly make preparations.

Now that Zhao Guo has basically accomplished his goal, King Zhao's 30,000 cavalry must be in place as soon as possible. Wei also has tens of thousands of cavalry, but they are all ordinary cavalry, which cannot be compared with the cavalry of Zhao Yun of the Tang Army. Therefore, bringing Zhao's elite cavalry to contain the Tang Army's cavalry was the idea of ​​killing two birds with one stone and killing two birds with one stone. count.

However, it was not that Chen Gong failed to see through Wei's strategy, but the Tang army's elimination of the Tang army's elite cavalry was the common goal of everyone, so after discussion, the Zhao monarchs and ministers quickly agreed to this strategy.

Therefore, after Lu Bu invaded Wuyuan, he quickly led ten thousand wolf cavalry into Shuofang territory. Firstly, he hoped to catch the knights off guard, and secondly, he wanted to confuse the Tang Dynasty and make everyone mistakenly think that he was still in Shuofang territory. In fact, when he walked around Shuofang and found that there was no advantage to be taken, he left 5,000 ordinary Bingzhou wolf cavalry under Zhang Liao's command, and led 15,000 wolf cavalry to the east quickly to Daijun and Cao Cao. Fifteen thousand ordinary cavalry led by Xing gathered together, passed through Feihuxing, and entered Hebei to participate in the Wei and Tang Dynasties.ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм

After repeatedly confirming that all parties were ready, Yuan Shao ordered: "Today is April 25th. The two generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou went out overnight. Today they led their cavalry to join their respective armies. Five days later, at the same time, Launch an attack on Handan and Wei County, and the rest of the people will set out in two days to conquer the Tang Dynasty!"

"promise!"

"Respect the king's order!" Everyone responded in unison;

…

Just when Yuan Shao ordered the army to set off and prepare to attack Wei County in the Tang Dynasty, Tian Yu, the general of the Tang Army in Shang County, had already led the army to capture Fushi City, the commandery of Shang County. Jiangshan was defeated again, and he led only two thousand infantry and cavalry in embarrassment. Fleeing north, he entered the Great Wall pass north of Fushi.

On the day when Lu Bu's army captured Yang, Tian Yu also gathered all the Tang troops in Gaonu City and marched north. Two days later, the army arrived at Qiaomen Town, the last defensive position south of Fushi deployed by Jiangshan.

After the Tang army captured Qiaomen Town in two days, they sent troops directly towards Fushi City without stopping. New 81 Chinese website is the fastest updated computer version:

Fushi City, located on the north bank of Sheyan River, is the county seat of Shangjun.

Shangjun, the name of an ancient county. It is said that it was first built by Wei Wenhou during the Warring States Period, between 446 BC and 396 BC. In 328, ten years before King Hui of Qin, Wei offered 15 counties to Qin. It was one of the thirty-six counties in the early Qin Dynasty. The county was governed in Fushi County, now Suide County. During the Western Han and Eastern Han Dynasties, the county administration remained unchanged. At the end of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, due to the great disturbance of Qiang and Hu, they migrated. During the Cao Wei Dynasty, it was merged with other counties into Xinxing County. In the Sui Dynasty, the city county was renamed "Shangjun", and it became a historical term after the Tang Dynasty.

As a city with a history of hundreds of years, Fushi City has been somewhat abandoned in recent decades, but its foundation is still there. In addition, after Jiangshan led the army to reoccupy it, he has been working hard to repair the city, so when the Tang army arrived When the skin spins around the city,

This has become a fortified city.

It is precisely because of this that nearly 100,000 Tang troops spent ten days and killed and injured thousands of soldiers before they captured it. Later, Tian Yu personally took charge of Fushi and ordered Hua Xiong and Shegan soldiers to divide into two groups and attack the Great Wall Pass and Yuanyin County respectively.

Now that the Jiangshan Army in Shangjun has reached its end, what Tian Yu has to do is to start preparing to restore normal order in Shangjun, and wait for Shi Luoyang to send someone to take over the new county.

…

Just when Tian Yu began to prepare to restore normal order in Shangjun, Huangfu Chaobo also gathered people in the palace to discuss the personnel arrangements of Shangjun. The situation in Shangjun was not simple. Although Tang State had become allies with Qin, Shangjun It is adjacent to Xihe County of Zhao State, and there are a large number of Zahu tribes outside the Great Wall to the north. If the Tang army wants to truly control Shangjun, the pressure will be considerable.

The personnel arrangement in Shangjun must be carefully arranged. Normally, Huangfu Chaobo made the arrangements for the prefects and generals of the various counties, but this time, he was never able to make a decision, so he called Sangong and Xun You over to discuss it together.

However, several candidates were proposed during the period, but in the end they were all rejected by Huangfu Chaobo for some reasons.

At this moment, the chamberlain reported outside the palace: "Your Majesty, Lord Guo is asking for an audience outside the palace!"

Huangfu Chaobo heard this and immediately ordered him to be recruited into the palace.

A moment later, Guo Jia entered the palace, first saluted Huangfu Chaobo, and then said: "Your Majesty, I discovered a problem when I was sorting out information today. King Zhao Lu Bu is missing."

"Huh?!" When everyone heard this, they were all surprised and looked at Guo Jia.

"To be precise, most of King Zhao's Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry are missing." Guo Jia added;

"How is it possible? Didn't all the pigeon messages sent back from Guangmu yesterday say that Bingzhou Langqi and Zhang Liao's infantry army were attacking Guangmu? Why did they disappear again?" Huangfu Chaobo asked;

"There are Bingzhou wolf cavalry under Guangmu City, but the number is not large. For this reason, Wei Chen specially checked the information of the past ten days. Ever since Lu Bu's wolf cavalry appeared in Yuan and captured Yuan city, he led Ten thousand wolf cavalry went all the way to the west, and then Lu Bu's Wang Banner and Bingzhou wolf cavalry were seen from Xi Anyang, Guangmu and Linrong."

"But the last time Lu Bu's royal flag appeared in our sight was ten days ago, that is, on the seventh day after Yangcheng was captured, Lu Bu's royal flag and ten thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalry appeared outside Linrong City. , and then the defenders saw him turn around and return. However, in the next few days, King Zhao's flag never appeared again. "

"Five days ago, Zhang Liao's army began to attack Guangmucheng. However, from the pigeon message intelligence in the past few days, Wei Chen discovered that there was a cavalry around Zhang Liao, and they were indeed Bingzhou wolf cavalry, but their number was not the same as before. The number of 10,000 wolf cavalry when they first invaded Wuyuan should not exceed 5,000 wolf cavalry at most.”
