Chapter 800 Marching into Beimang
It is said that Huang Gong took back the general Wu Yi before he overturned the formation. The generals were overjoyed. Huang Gong ordered Zhang He and Wu Yi to be the vanguard. The army crossed the Beiman Mountain pass that day. At the same time, messengers were sent out to contact the army commander Zhou Buyi. .
The Qinglong Army's troops were pointing forward, and they were about to occupy the Beimang stronghold within a matter of days. At the same time, Zhou Buyi's troops built fortifications in front of Hulao Pass and set up an ambush, cutting off the communication between Hulao Pass and Luoyang. Han Yin, the guard general of Hulao Pass, was a civil servant who had never fought in a war. Although he had a high status, he did not know much about military affairs. Yuan Shu transferred all the generals who could fight to the southern front for a decisive battle with Cao Cao, so he was useless. The civil servant Han Yin was transferred to Hulao Pass to guard.
Han Yin, recorded in the novel, was Yuan Shu's envoy. Shu wanted to use Lu Bu to capture Liu Bei. He had two hundred thousand dendrobiums of millet and ordered Yinfu to send a secret letter to see Bu. Bu was very happy and treated Yin favorably, and Yin reported back to Shu. Hou Shu sent Yin as a matchmaker to go to Xuzhou with gifts to ask for his hand in marriage and make a promise. Yin returned the skill, and the skill was to prepare the betrothal gift, and still ordered Yin to be sent to Xuzhou. After accepting the offer, we set up a banquet for each other and stayed in the post to rest. The next day, Chen Gong went to visit Yin in the post office and revealed that he wanted to be accomplices in the marriage plan. When the palace came, Bu promised to marry his daughter quickly, and Bu followed. Chen Gui, the prime minister of Pei, was afraid that if Bu got married, then Xu and Yang would join in, which would be a national disaster. So he went to talk to Bu, and Bu then sent troops to recover him. Even Yindu was taken back. imprisonment. Houshu blasphemed, Bu and Cao Gong jointly attacked him, nailed Yin with a shackle, sent Chen Deng to thank him, released Yin to Xudu, and Cao Gong killed Yin in Shicao.
Yuan Shu had no choice but to use this civilian officer to guard the crucial Hulao Pass. At this moment, Han Yin was not aware of the danger on his back. He was mainly focused on the movements of Cao Jun east of Hulao Pass. He found out about the movement of Cao Jun's army. Crossing the Yellow River and attacking Jizhou, they did not use troops against Hulao, but they were secretly happy.
Every three days, Han Yin would send liaison messengers to Luoyang to inform both sides of the military situation. This day was another day for messengers to communicate. The messenger left Hulao Pass early in the morning. While running, suddenly several scratching hooks came out from the fields on both sides. With just one hook, the messenger was pulled off his horse and tied up tightly in the blink of an eye.
The messenger fell to pieces. He never imagined that such a safe internal road would have a safety problem. He thought he had encountered bandits. He waited until the soldiers pushed him into the commander's tent and saw the troops on both sides were neatly dressed. When he reluctantly looked up in shock, he saw a fat young general with a fair face and no beard sitting in the middle, and a king-like general sitting next to him, looking at him with angry eyes and brows.
The messenger's face turned pale with fear, and a fishy stench came from his crotch. Zhou Buyi chuckled and said, "Don't be afraid."
Seeing that Zhou Buji's face had improved and he knew that there was still a way to survive, the messenger quickly bowed and said, "I'm just a little messenger, but I don't know who you are? Why do you want to arrest me? I beg for my life."
Zhou Busuo smiled and said: "You don't need to know who I am. Let me ask you, what is the token of Yuan Shujun's messenger?"
The messenger shook his head and said: "It's not that much of a token, just the little one's face. Make a rotation every day."
It turns out that the messengers between Hulao Pass and Luoyang are a fixed team, so the gate defenders in Beiluo all know each other and have no tokens.
Zhou Buyi heard this and pondered. He originally wanted to send someone with a token to pretend to be a messenger and enter Luoyang to detect the enemy's situation, but since there was no token, it would be difficult to get in with a strange face. After thinking about it, he winked at Yan Liang. Yan Liang understood and raised his hand to slap on the makeshift table.
This shot took some internal force, but the table was not very solid, and it fell apart immediately, and sawdust flew everywhere for a while. There seemed to be a thunder in the messenger's ears. He raised his head in horror and saw the bearded general with a ferocious look on his face. He was cursing: "I think you are a piece of meat. Are your skin itchy? If you don't hand over the token, I will beat you." Your wife won’t even recognize you when you get home!”
The messenger was shocked, his whole body was trembling like chaff, and he cried loudly: "The little one is afraid of death. He will never dare to hide the token. When the general asks, the little one will tell you everything. He just wants to avoid death!"
Yan Liang thundered: "I don't believe what you said! Tell me, we all know the situation in Luoyang City. Let's check whether your kid's confession is truthful! If there is half a word of lies, it will be like this coffee table !”
The messenger immediately poured beans into the bamboo tube and counted them all. It turned out that Yuan Shu sent General Ji Ling to the northern front as the main general, Yuan Huan as the supervisor, Chen Lan and Lei Bo as the vanguard, and Liang Gang and Lejiu as the support. It can be said that all the elites came out to fight Cao Cao. In Luoyang City, Yuan Shu led the central army, with Yan Xiang as the military advisor, Yuan Yin as the general, and Li Feng as the general manager of city defense to defend Luoyang.
Yan Liang asked: "How many total troops are there? How are the city defenses arranged?"
The messenger looked troubled and said, "This little guy really doesn't know."
Yan Liang was still waiting to be frightened, but Zhou Buji interrupted: "This kid has a low status, and he doesn't know such important information. It seems that this kid is of no use."
Zhou Buyi murmured softly, but the messenger was almost frightened to the point where his stomach went cold and he struggled to survive. Zhou Busuo smiled and said, "You keep crying and I feel soft. Anyway, I'll give you a chance."
When the messenger heard that he could survive, he immediately became energetic and looked at Zhou Buyi with burning eyes. Zhou Busuo asked, "Are you willing to sincerely surrender to me?"
The messenger was slightly startled, and when he saw Yan Liang's angry expression, he quickly said: "I wish to surrender."
Zhou Buji laughed and said: "I'm not afraid of you pretending to surrender. To be honest, I am the general of the Qinglong Army, Zhou Buyi. It is your destiny to join the Qinglong Army."
The messenger suddenly realized, and at the same time he had several big questions in his mind. How could Zhou Busuo's divine soldiers appear here when they descended from the sky?
Zhou Bujie continued: "Actually, I don't need you either. As long as I attack with force, Luoyang can be conquered just around the corner. If you pretend to surrender, by the time I conquer Luoyang, your nine tribes will be wiped out."
The messenger also knew the opportunity and said quickly: "Young man swears to the sky, he is sincerely surrendering."
Zhou Buyi laughed and said: "Then I will wait for you for a day. You go back and send a message to get a general understanding of the defense situation in Luoyang North City. Tomorrow at this time, you must try to return to Hulao Pass to report the message, and stop by my place to guard the garrison. Report the situation to me. If you successfully capture Luoyang, it will be considered a great achievement for you. Not only will you survive, but you will also be rewarded."
The messenger didn't dare to disobey him, so he nodded and walked away. As soon as he left, Xu Shu's messenger arrived and conveyed the news that Hangu Pass had been defeated and Zhang He and Wu Yi led the army to cross the Mang Mountain Pass. Zhou Buji said with great joy: "That's it, great things are accomplished!"
Immediately, I wrote a reply with a flourish of pen. The letter said: "After seeing the letter, Yuan Zhi can mobilize Zhang He's troops to hide in the Humagou area in the northwest of Luoyang in the early morning of the day after tomorrow, and mobilize the public troops to hide in the Xichang Valley in the west of Luoyang City, waiting for orders. By then Yuan Yuan Take the west city directly, and I will take the north city by myself, and great things can be accomplished."
His own messenger immediately reported back to Yuan Zhi and left. Zhou Buyi ordered the troops to prepare for a day and gear up, just waiting for the order to attack the city. Xu Shu called Yan Liang again and said: "General Yan, you can lead your troops. Tomorrow at this time, follow the Luoyang messenger thirty miles away and capture Hulao Pass with one drum. If Cao's army comes to attack after it is captured, be careful not to fight and be on guard. Hold on tight to protect Luoyang."
Yan Liang said in confusion: "If I go to attack Hulao Pass, who will protect the military advisor?"
It turns out that after Lu Bu and Guan Yu left, except for Yan Liang, the generals in several cities in Jizhou withered away, so Yan Liang asked this question.
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
