Chapter 80 Transferring Conflicts

In the following period, the two warring parties entered into a state of confrontation. As winter was approaching, both sides seemed to have no idea of ​​​​continuing to launch an attack.

At this time, Sun Jian led his army to occupy Ji County, while Zhang Wen, Dong Zhuo, and Xiang Yu were in Linwei City. Part of Han Sui's troops were in Tianshui City and Xixian County, but his real main force had actually gone up the Wei River at this time, all the way back.

After retreating to Xiangwu City in Longxi, Han Sui directly ordered most of the troops in Tianshui City and Xixian to retreat back. In the second year of Zhongping (AD 185), that is, in this year

In November, the entire army had crossed the Yellow River in Yuzhong and almost completely retreated to the Xiliang area.

After Zhang Wen led his army to recapture Tianshui City and Xixian County, he did not continue to pursue it. Until December, the emperor, under the instigation of a group of eunuchs, seemed to be unwilling to hold on to Zhang Wen's army.

Satisfied, he personally ordered Zhang Wen to continue to lead his army to attack the Xiliang rebels. At this time, it had begun to snow in the Xiliang area. However, many soldiers in Zhang Wen's army had no winter clothes to wear at all. Under such circumstances

He still had to lead the army forward, otherwise he would give the eunuchs and the emperor a reason to punish himself.

Zhang Wen called Xiang Yu, Sun Jian, Dong Zhuo and others together and talked about the emperor's edict. Dong Zhuo laughed loudly after hearing it.

"Why is General Dong laughing?" Zhang Wen saw Dong Zhuo's abnormal expression and asked.

"Why am I laughing? Of course I am laughing at you, Lord Taiwei!" Although Dong Zhuo had a smile on his face, his tone was obviously full of disdain for Zhang Wen. It was obvious that he did not take Zhang Wen seriously at all.

What Taiwei Chao paid attention to could actually be seen from the fact that Zhang Wen summoned him with an edict to come and jointly deal with Han Sui's rebels, but Dong Zhuo kept declining and was reluctant to come to report.

"You are so brave Dong Zhuo, how dare you be rude to Lord Taiwei? You don't really think that no one dares to do anything to you, do you?" Sun Jian jumped out immediately after hearing this, pointed at Dong Zhuo's nose and wanted to curse. "I am Sun Wentai.

Is the sword in your hand fake?"

As he spoke, Sun Jian looked like he wanted to draw his sword and fight Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo saw that Sun Jian was also very angry and wanted to attack him with swords and guns without saying a word, but he looked like a good man who would not suffer the consequences in front of him, coldly.

He snorted and turned around to leave directly.

Xiang Yu, who had been silent at this time, stood in front of Dong Zhuo.

"General Xiang, why do you want to block my way?" Dong Zhuo saw Xiang Yu standing in front of him, and his eyes suddenly changed. "Is it possible that you also want to side with them to deal with me?"

"General Dong, calm down!" Xiang Yu grabbed Dong Zhuo's shoulders, secretly exerted force, and almost lifted Dong Zhuo to turn him around again. Dong Zhuo looked at Xiang Yu with a little surprise and fear in his eyes.

He can be regarded as a strong and powerful man. Who would have thought that Xiang Yu, who looks thin, could have such a powerful core explosive power.

But Xiang Yu walked up to Sun Jian again and asked him to put back the drawn sword. When Sun Jian saw Xiang Yu do this, he just snorted coldly, his eyes filled with anger but still stared fiercely.

Dong Zhuo, if looks could kill, Dong Zhuo must not be alive at this moment.

Zhang Wen looked at the scene happening in front of him, but he was also stunned. He really didn't know how to deal with the relationship between these generals under his command. After all, whether it was Dong Zhuo or Sun Jian, a veteran who had fought for decades,

A young and strong rising star like Xiang Yu is a very powerful being, and Zhang Wen is able to achieve the position of Taiwei, but it is inevitable that there are many shady connections among them. Otherwise, if you look at the whole world

, there are probably dozens, if not hundreds, of people who are more qualified than him to hold these three official positions. How could it be his turn?

However, although Zhang Wen is not very capable, he still does one thing well, that is, he dares to delegate power and knows how to use people who are truly capable. If he cannot do it himself, he will use those who can do it. In fact, as a

It's okay for a commander to be able to do this, but I'm afraid that some commanders know that they know nothing, but they still have to give orders to laymen to command experts, which will lead to various more serious problems.

However, although Zhang Wen's situation allowed powerful men like Sun Jian and Xiang Yu to display their abilities, it also caused his personal command prestige to be greatly reduced. He lacked sufficient strength and majesty to intimidate his generals. Although Sun Jian

On the surface, it seemed that he was standing on his own side to maintain his authority, but in fact, the reason why Sun Jian did this was more because he couldn't stand Dong Zhuo's actions, rather than how loyal he was to Zhang Wen.

On the contrary, no matter whether he allowed the conflict between Sun Jian and Dong Zhuo to escalate or how he did it, Zhang Wen is actually very embarrassed now. Just like at that time, Sun Jian asked Zhang Wen to directly punish Dong Zhuo with military law on the grounds that he was disrespectful to him, and

Zhang Wen did not follow Sun Jian's advice, because he needed to rely on Dong Zhuo's strength and the combat effectiveness of his troops. He needed Dong Zhuo, a man familiar with the people and things in the Xiliang area, to help him defeat Han Sui, so even if Dong Zhuo disrespected him,

He could only endure it.

However, this can only make Dong Zhuo act more recklessly. Previously, Sun Jian, Xiang Yu, and Dong Zhuo were engaged in fierce battles with Han Sui, and the internal conflicts were temporarily covered up and transferred out. But now this conflict has just reappeared.

.

As for Xiang Yu, he was the only one who could temporarily stabilize this chaotic situation. After many previous battles, Sun Jian's attitude towards Xiang Yu had changed greatly, and he no longer felt jealous and angry towards Xiang Yu.

, I was finally able to recognize and value Xiang Yu’s strength calmly and objectively as a senior.

Dong Zhuo and Xiang Yu also had some kind of friendship. To be honest, the private relationship between Xiang Yu and Dong Zhuo is still very good. The two of them can often eat large pieces of meat and drink heavily, which seems to be extremely harmonious. Although

Both of them are extremely ambitious people, but Dong Zhuo obviously regarded Xiang Yu as his successor to some extent. However, Xiang Yu gradually displayed abilities that completely exceeded Dong Zhuo's imagination.

and control, but still did not regard Xiang Yu as his competitor or threat.

Therefore, in such a situation, only Xiang Yu's intervention can prevent the further development and deterioration of the situation. Upon seeing this, Zhang Wen also gave Sun Jian and Dong Zhuo good words to persuade, and there was no trace of anger on his face because Dong Zhuo was disrespectful to him.

look.

"Since the emperor wants us to continue fighting, then we will continue to fight!" Xiang Yu's voice was very loud and full of energy, and he seemed to be very confident in this battle.

"But what should we fight with now?" Seeing Xiang Yu say this, Dong Zhuo also asked. "Many soldiers don't even have winter clothes."

"Since we don't even have winter clothes, we have to fight and snatch them from the enemy!" Xiang Yu said coldly.

Dong Zhuo was slightly stunned when he heard this. He saw that Xiang Yu's eyes were full of murderous intent, so he said nothing. He had seen Xiang Yu's eyes full of murderous intent several times before. Knowing that Xiang Yu's eyes were full of murderous intent, it meant that

He definitely means what he said!

Since Xiang Yu was serious, Dong Zhuo felt that there was nothing more to say. He actually believed in Xiang Yu's judgment.
