Duan Ermianmen was hit by an arrow from Liu Yanqing. The arrow penetrated his left cheek and broke several molars. It was terrifying to see the blood flowing all over his face, but in fact it was not fatal.
Now, with his hands tied behind his back and kneeling in front of Tong Guan, how can he still have any arrogance? Only to tremble.
Tong Guan looked at him for a long time and said slowly: "Is it possible that someone with an egg as big as Marshal Duan will be defeated?"
When Duan Er heard this, he trembled more and more.
Tong Guan showed a look of disappointment, shook his head and said: "You are a mean man after all. If you have the courage to scold me for a few words, I will look down on you. Humph, with a man like you, you are worthy of taking command to fight against the heavenly army?" "
As he said this, he suddenly took a sniff and looked with a frown. Sure enough, Duan Er's crotch was gradually getting wet, and the marks were getting bigger and bigger.
Tong Guan scolded: "No wonder he is so arrogant. He urinates so big. It shows that his eggs are indeed big. Someone is here. Let's remove his big eggs and give him a good medical treatment before sending him to Tokyo."
When Duan Er heard this, he suddenly woke up from a dream and cried indistinctly: "Please have mercy, Commander-in-Chief, don't cut off my eggs. I am willing to surrender to the heavenly army to catch that thief Wang Qing."
Tong Guan waved his hand, and several soldiers stepped forward, dragging Duan Er down like wolves and tigers. Duan Er struggled desperately and cried loudly. The shrill cries gradually faded away, and suddenly there was an extremely loud scream, which was the same as what he was talking about. The proud things said goodbye.
On the other side, Lu Junyi frowned and said, "I can't wait to enter the city, so what are I waiting for?"
Liu Yanqing smiled slightly and taught: "In this battle, we have made great contributions and won the city, so we might as well give it to others. You must know that everyone must get some credit for sending troops and horses. Next time Only then are you willing to contribute.”
Lu Junyi was a little puzzled. He looked at the city gate and saw that Wang Zhen's troops, Wang Yi's troops, and Ma Wanli's troops were confronting each other, trying to get into the city first.
In the midst of the commotion, the city gate suddenly opened, and a group of Song troops came out. One of them, Marquis Yu, shouted: "We are under the command of Chen Dujian. We attacked the city from the waterway and captured Fancheng."
When Wang Yi heard this, he was furious and cursed: "Chen Zhu was a pioneer, but he fled when he was defeated. Instead of coming to apologize to the commander, he took the credit instead. It's so shameless. Where is this guy now?"
That Yuhou said with a sad face: "Unfortunately, Chen Dujian was killed by an enemy general using a mace when he was blocking the enemy. His body is here."
After saying that the troops were divided, several officers and soldiers walked out carrying a pair of door panels. It turned out to be Chen Zhu's body with a watermelon head on it.
The two supervisors saw it, and they couldn't help feeling sad about the death of rabbits and foxes. They both said: "Well, since he has died in the battle, how can we compete with him for credit?"
Immediately, they brought people to see Tong Guan. Tong Guan sighed and ordered a grand burial. Then he sent Wang Zhen to lead his troops into the city to clean up the city. After ensuring safety, he entered the city.
Then I counted the battle losses and found that I lost more than 3,000 soldiers and horses, and another 6,000 to 7,000 people were injured, leaving only 60,000 capable warriors. Five generals, Wang Wenbin, Han Tianlin, Wu Bingyi, Li Ming, and Chen Zhu, were also killed, and no fewer than dozens of other generals were damaged in the battle.
On the bandit side, more than 11,000 people were killed, and more than 3,000 were seriously injured. They were all left outside the city to die, and more than 20,000 people were captured. The rest may have escaped with the group. Or it collapsed and disappeared without a trace.
Captured the enemy commander Duan Er and beheaded eleven famous generals among the bandits, including Wei He, He Ji, Guo Ji, Chen Yun, Gu Cen, Geng Wen, Xue Zan, Weng Fei, Qian Bi, Qian Yi, Ji Sansi thought, as for the Yajiang and his ilk, there were countless of them.
After reading it, Tong Guan saw no sadness or joy, so he asked the secretary to take out the merit book and record the merits of all the generals one by one, especially Cao Cao. Then he wrote a memorial himself and sent it to Bianjing on Pegasus. Some of the words are as follows ——
"At that time, there were 150,000 bandit soldiers, who were approaching from all sides, and they were equipped with brave men as their spearheads. Wang Wenbin, Wu Bingyi and others died in battle one after another. Our army was small and the battle formation was shaky. There were many people who urged me to withdraw. I said with emotion: I have been favored by the emperor, so why should I retreat without dying? Everyone wanted to be strong, but one of Liu Yanqing's generals, Wu Zhi, rushed up on horseback, swung his spears and struck wildly, and shouted sternly: "Our army has not been defeated, and those who say retreat can Beheading. The minister made a strong statement and immediately beheaded one person. Everyone's expressions changed and they did not dare to retreat.
"Wu Zhi said: Mr. Tong, the war is extremely dangerous. If you dare to charge into the battle, there may be changes." Everyone tried to persuade them but they couldn't. The minister said: He is a general and I am a commander. Generals are not willing to sacrifice their lives, so all the troops will naturally work hard. . So the ministers personally held the commander's flag, with Wu Zhi, Liu Yanqing, Han Shizhong and others as the vanguard, and gathered thousands of forbidden troops to rush into the bandits' formation. All the troops watched the commander's flag move and shouted in unison: "You are a noble man, and you are not afraid of death. I Why wait for this body? They all fought bravely and angrily with the enemy, and the situation became slightly calmer.
"The army of thieves numbered 30,000 people, six times as many as the ministers. When I expected the ministers to arrive, arrows shot out like rain. Although I was protected by all the troops, I was still hit by three arrows. If it weren't for the fact that your majesty had not gifted me with thick golden armor, I would have become a loyal ghost to the country." Yes. I don’t know how many of the rest were killed by arrows. For a while, the soldiers could not get close. The ministers shouted bravely: The emperor is looking forward to our victory day and night. Do you want to disappoint the emperor? After hearing this, all the troops shouted in unison: We would rather die than lose the hope of the Emperor.
"Then they galloped through a hail of arrows, and the thieves sent eight more generals to stop them. Wu Zhi, Han Shizhong and others fought bravely to the death, killing them one by one. However, the thieves' army was so large that it was difficult to defeat them. The minister was extremely anxious, so he ordered The general held the commander's flag and personally held the bow and arrow given by the emperor and shot, relying on the emperor's blessing. Two hundred steps away, he hit the enemy commander's face. The rebels began to be in chaos. Liu Yanqing, a veteran of the Western Army, drove straight in and cut off the enemy commander's flag with his sword. The group The thieves looked from a distance and were all shocked. They howled and said: The emperor has divine help and the heavenly soldiers cannot stop them. Then they were defeated and wanted to return to Fancheng to defend it. However, Chen Zhu was sent early to lie down on the upper reaches of the Han River and go down the river to seize the water gate. , the thieves then abandoned the city and left..."
Tong Guan was a fastidious person. He regarded the memorial as writing, and conveniently took the credit for She Duan 2. This was not because he was greedy for credit, but simply because he understood Painter Zhao's plot as an artist and wanted to occupy a C position for himself.
He didn't take away Liu Yanqing's merit for nothing. He conveniently gave Han Shizhong's merit in capturing the flag to Liu Yanqing. As for Han Shizhong, he was an unknown general. Isn't he satisfied with his ability to kill generals? What's more, if his name is mentioned twice in the memorial, at least I think I am worthy of him.
When the memorial was handed over, Lao Tong did not say anything like before, saying "we will all reward him when he returns to the court". He directly stripped Cao Cao out from under Liu Yanqing and made him a commander. Two thousand Zhengzhou troops were given to him to lead.
In addition, Tangzhou soldiers were handed over to Wang Zhen, and Xuzhou soldiers were handed over to Liu Yanqing to supplement their respective consumption.
When Cao Cao thanked Tong Guan with tears of gratitude on his face, Tong Guan patted Cao Cao's shoulder generously: "Xiao Wu, as time goes by, you will know the character of a certain family. A certain family has commanded the Western Army for many years, and all the arrogant and powerful generals are convinced. , Why? As long as you dare to fight and can fight, I will give you great wealth!"
Cao Cao took advantage of his happiness and took the six of Lu Junyi into his hands on the grounds that he had no one under his command. He was so angry that Liu Yanqing blew his white beard and scolded Cao Cao for being ungrateful. Han Shizhong advised: "Don't be angry, General. He still left me, Han Wu, for you."
Because of the heavy casualties in this encounter, Tong Guan decided to rest in Fancheng for a few days to recuperate his strength. Cao Cao happened to be familiar with his soldiers and horses. He learned about them in detail. Although Chenzhou's soldiers were defeated first, most of them were later defeated. When he came back from the killing, there was a Dutou among them. Ji Sansi, the enemy general who beheaded the enemy in formation, had more than ten heads of military merit. He was immediately promoted to be used in important positions around him.
But it is said that in Bianjing City, Painter Zhao wrote and painted every day while sleeping with his concubine. When he got bored, he would go outside the palace to find Zhao Yuannu to play with. Naturally, it would not be as Tong Guan imagined, "Watching me day and night, waiting for the good news to arrive", but waiting for the good news to arrive. The painter was very happy to see it.
Tong Guan had the status of an eunuch, so the memorial could be delivered directly to the emperor. He regarded the memorial as writing, and the painter regarded it as documentary literature. With his artistic sensibility, he was instantly moved by the tragic atmosphere created by Tong Guan, and shed tears several times. He went down and shouted: "I have such loyal ministers, fierce generals, and sharp soldiers, so why worry about the world being uneasy?"
I was moved and felt creative inspiration in my chest. I hurriedly asked someone to get a pen and paper and read the memorial several times. I closed my eyes and pondered for a long time. Then I suddenly opened my eyes and drew a picture of "Child Privy Takes Command to Kill Thieves". In the picture, the child is wearing golden armor and is covered with arrows. He is sitting firmly on a raised horse like a big hedgehog. His eyes are open angrily, holding a carved bow in his hand. In the distance, a green-faced man with fangs The handsome thief was hit by an arrow in the face and was falling from his horse.
He painted this painting in one breath for two days. He felt exhausted and drank a bowl of ginseng soup to make up for his drowsiness. When he woke up from a long sleep, he felt the spring breeze was like water and the years were quiet. He naturally forgot about what he should do. Some money is used to reward those "strong generals and sharp soldiers".
But I didn't forget the painting. After I finished my meal, I asked someone to get it. I looked at it carefully and praised it. I also took a pen and wrote a few lines of thin gold characters on the painting.
It is written as follows: The Song army marched westward in a cloud of dust and sand, and the Han River flowed eastward to reflect the sunset. The soldiers fought bravely to the death to protect the emperor's family thousands of miles away.
There are only two updates today, sorry.
