Chapter 1343: Changes in Changshan State (1)
Remember in one second【】
Judging from the speed of Shi A's whip on the horse, Huangfu Chaobo had concluded that what Shi A brought this time was definitely not good news. However, at this time, Huangfu Chaobo was far from the young boy he was back then. Standing on the watchtower, although Huangfu Chaobo was anxious in his heart, on the surface he was still as calm and calm as before.
Soon, Shi A arrived at the outskirts of the Chinese army. Upon seeing this, Dian Wei, who was responsible for defending the Chinese army, quickly led Shi A towards the watchtower.
Hurrying up to the watchtower, Shi A was about to speak, but Huangfu Chaobo winked at him. Shi A was stunned and quickly stopped what he was saying. He just stepped forward quickly, saluted Huangfu Chaobo, and said softly : "Your Majesty, there is urgent information from Luoyang, it is..."
After a short pause, Shi A swallowed his saliva and said, "It's about the Changshan Kingdom's peaceful and difficult general..."
Just as he was about to continue speaking, Guo Jia suddenly interrupted Shi A's words and said: "In this case, there will be no new progress in the war for a while, so it is not too late to ask the king to return to the big tent and report again. "
After this, Shi Ayi came to his senses and slowly calmed down his mood. Huangfu Chaobo also nodded and looked at Huangfu Jianshou: "Well, let's withdraw the army and return to the camp. My brother will follow me." Let’s go together.”
After saying that, he led Guo Jia and the others away from the watchtower, got on their horses, and headed towards the camp's main tent.
A moment later, in the big tent, Huangfu Chaobo looked at Shi A and said in a deep voice: "Tell me, why are you so panicked?"
"Your Majesty, three days ago, Wei's General Pingxi General Yan Liang led a horse and infantry army of more than 30,000 people, and the guerrilla general Zhang Nan led a horse and infantry army of more than 15,000 people, totaling nearly 50,000 people, to attack Zhending City. , General Pingnan was caught off guard and was defeated, and he led his remaining troops to retreat to Tumen Pass. Now among the cities in Changshan Kingdom, only Shangai and Jingxing and Tumen Pass are still under his control, and the rest of the cities have fallen into the hands of the Wei army. "
Everyone in the tent was shocked when they heard this. You must know that Zhang Yan's side was a trump card that Huangfu Chaobo had planted to attack the Wei State. Now it was suddenly captured by the Wei State. Although it was not clear that the other party had completely figured it out. The identity of the Black Mountain Army is not good news for the Tang State at least. At least there are hundreds of thousands of people in several cities in the Changshan State.
"Tell me in detail what happened, why Zhang Yan was so careless, and Yan Liang's army suddenly left Julu. Why is there no news from Yecheng?" Huangfu Chaobo asked with a gloomy face;
Shi A did not dare to neglect and reported to him everything that happened in Changshan Kingdom.
The time goes back to half a month ago, in the State of Yan,
In Jicheng, when the Tang Army began to send troops to the State of Zhao, the war between the State of Wei and the State of Yan also began. After several months of preparation, the Wei Army quickly captured Liangxiang City on the north bank of the Shengshui River, and then in Guangzhou. They laid siege to Yangcheng for reinforcements and annihilated Gongsunzan's reinforcements of more than ten thousand infantry and thousands of white-horse followers. After that, in just a few days, the Wei army marched into Jicheng, and an army of hundreds of thousands defeated Gongsunzan's tens of thousands of elite soldiers. They tightly surrounded the city.
And Gongsun Zan, who had been defeated by Yuan Shao several times, was like a turtle, curling himself up inside the shell, no matter how hard it was beaten outside, his head would never come out again. Of course, it was not that he did nothing. After the Wei army besieged the city, Gongsun Zan still sent his eldest son to the city. However, after Gongsun Xu left the city, he did not go to find his two uncles, but instead sent his eldest son to the city. According to my order, go to Zhang Yan for help.
After Yuan Shao's army failed to attack Jicheng twice, they stopped attacking. Instead, they surrounded Jicheng with tens of thousands of troops and then separated into several groups. The army was led by Han Meng, the general who conquered the captives, and attacked the military capital and Changping, opening up another communication channel with Zhao. The other army was led by Ju Yi, the general of the town army, and attacked Yuyang County to the west.
Yuan Shao himself, together with the commander of Pingbei General Wen Chou and the Qiaoqi General Jiang Yiqu, tightly surrounded Gongsun Zan's tens of thousands of elite troops in Jicheng.
That night, Yuan Shao was reviewing the memorial sent from Nanpi with the Chinese army. Suddenly, the guard outside the tent announced: "Your Majesty, Mr. Xu You, the court captain, has asked to see you. He said that he has urgent matters to report to your Majesty."
Yuan Shao was stunned and looked at the clock next to him. It was already the second watch, but Xu You asked to see him at this time. He must have something important to do. After thinking for a while, Yuan Shao said: "Pass!"
"promise!"
A moment later, there was a sound of footsteps outside the tent, and then the guard's voice sounded outside the tent: "Your Majesty, Master Xu is here!"
"Enter!"
The curtain was lifted, and Xu You's thin figure appeared at the door of the tent. He quickly entered the tent. Xu You said with a joyful face, "I'm humble, I'm here to meet you, your Majesty!"
"Ai Qing, please get up. I wonder why Xu Ai Qing came to see me all night?"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
"Oh, where does the joy in Aiqing's mouth come from?" Yuan Shao asked with a surprised look on his face;
"Your Majesty, the ministers have mentioned before that they want to surrender the Black Mountain Army for Your Majesty, and now the matter has taken shape." Xu You said with a smile;
After hearing this, Yuan Shao frowned, but there was no feeling of joy in his heart. You must know that Xu You advocated this matter, and it was called an invitation to Yuan Shao. However, Yuan Shao was not interested in it. Because with Yuan Shao's current situation, he is already famous all over the world, and he doesn't care about this little fame at all, and Yuan Shao doesn't take these thieves in his eyes from the bottom of his heart.
It was just Xu You who insisted on it, and he did not object to it. Now Xu You suddenly mentioned it, and Yuan Shao remembered it after a while: "Oh, thank you for your hard work!"
Seeing Yuan Shao's lack of interest, Xu You was not discouraged, and continued: "This is not what the king thought. I just surrendered a few generals of the Black Mountain Army, but I discovered a shocking secret."
"Oh..." Yuan Shao finally got a little interested, and moved his eyes away from the memorial and put them on Xu You.
"Your Majesty," Xu You stepped forward and said to Yuan Shao with a mysterious look on his face: "Do you remember the war in Yuzhou between the Tang and Qi armies a few years ago?"
"Well," Yuan Shao was stunned, but he quickly reacted: "What you said was the war between Huangfu Chaobo and Cao Aman. Huangfu Chaobo lost the two counties of Qingzhou, while Cao Aman lost the two counties where he started his career?"
"Your Majesty is wise. It was the war that year. Do you remember why the King of Qi lost Qiao County?"
"Why? It was because the Tang army was deceiving the world..." Although Yuan Shao had shifted his attention, he still didn't think much about it. However, he suddenly realized: "What do you mean?"
Dear, this chapter is over. I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
