Chapter 251: Geng Bi rises up in the army]
Updated: 2013-04-28
While Lu Bu was tired of martial arts, his eyes would always unconsciously look at the carriage ahead. He had already learned about the relationship between Jia Rong and Wei Fu through the soldiers in the army. When he learned that Wei Fu used his body to block the sword for Jia Rong, Lu Bu was completely silent. A woman was willing to make such a great sacrifice for the man, and she would not tolerate other people in her heart.
Although Lu Bu was a military general, he was also an intellectual person.
In the blink of an eye, it was already a month later, and the news of Jia Rong's survival was circulating. Because of the desert escaping, Jia Rong's reputation in the Han Dynasty reached an unprecedented level. Many people even rumored that Jia Rong was the one who belonged to God. Various rumors about Jia Rong were spread again, and the aristocratic families were inseparable from the fire.
At this time, Geng Bi was planning an army to attack Hanyang County where Han Sui was located. Geng Bi exhausted the power of Liangzhou to collect 300,000 troops. After the oath, the troops headed straight to Hanyang.
The 300,000 soldiers were temporarily collected from various places in Liangzhou, and most of them were recruited before they even had been trained. The quality and combat effectiveness of the soldiers were uneven. The villages and towns they passed were like locusts passing through, plundering the people and insulting women and doing all kinds of evil. After hearing the news of the upcoming army in the villages along the way, the people fled one after another.
Geng Bi has repeatedly been ineffective in order to order the orders, so he can only turn a blind eye to this matter. It is not easy to make these soldiers work and rest on time.
Jincheng opposed Geng Bi's order to collect Geng Bi. Geng Bi was the culprit for Jia Rong's burial in the desert. The generals of the military even bluntly said that they would lead the army to kill Geng Bi to avenge Jia Rong. If Jia Xu and Zhang Li had not repeatedly dissuaded them, these generals would have cursed at the top of their voices.
With helplessness, Zhang Li had to send someone to reply, saying that Jincheng had insufficient food and grass and could not leave the army.
After reading the letter, Geng Bi sneered: "What a Zhang Li, he actually disobeyed my wishes. Everyone, who would be willing to lead his army to Jincheng and bring Zhang Li's dog head back?"
All the generals under the tent remained silent. Although they had never really seen the combat effectiveness of the Jincheng Xiliang Army, no one dared to go there. The shadow of the famous tree was Jia Rong's army back then.
"A group of waste, we have an army of 300,000, what is a small Jincheng?" Geng Bi cursed.
Cheng Qiu bowed: "Sir, I am willing to lead the army to take down Jincheng to shake the night of the night."
Geng Bi said happily: "I have Cheng Zhizhong, and I have no worries."
The five generals under the tent showed disgust. Over the years, Cheng Qiu has relied on this method to continue to rise. In front of Geng Bi, he was a dog, but in front of the people below, he became a wolf. He was caught with him if he had a slight mistake.
"I wonder how many troops Cheng Zhizhong brought to him this time?" Geng Bi asked.
After thinking about it, Cheng Qiu slowly said: "150,000 troops."
Geng Bi's expression changed and said angrily: "It takes 150,000 troops to take a small Jincheng, a waste."
Cheng Qiu was unmoved at all, lowered his head and quietly waited for Geng Bi's order. After the battle with Jia Rong in front, he was still scared of the Western Liang army. Five hundred cavalrymen were defeated by others.
Geng Bi seemed to remember something, put away the anger on his face and said, "At most, you can get 100,000 troops."
Cheng Qiu said, "A humble duty will make you destiny!"
After placing one hundred thousand troops, Cheng Qiu came to Jincheng with great enthusiasm.
All the scouts in the army were sent forward, and the 100,000 troops were also in camp step by step. Once, they marched fifty miles one day, which shows how cautious it is.
Cheng Qiu led his army to attack, and the upper levels of Jincheng responded in a different way, and the generals asked for battle one after another.
When the army was approaching, Jia Xu was still as calm as before, as if he had expected this matter, and said, "No, please instruct the soldiers from Pingxiang and other counties to withdraw to the warriors as soon as possible."
As soon as Jia Xu finished speaking, a buzzing discussion came from below. If someone else had said this, he would probably be scolded by the general immediately.
"Instruct the soldiers from the three counties to withdraw to the warriors and take away all the food, grass and supplies that can be taken away, and all the people willing to follow will be brought to the warriors." Zhang Li thought for a moment and ordered.
When Jia Rong left, he ordered Zhang Li to obey Jia Xu's orders for military issues, and Zhang Zhao answered internal affairs issues.
When the generals heard this, they all held their fists and agreed.
Geng Bi, the governor of Liangzhou, led an army of 300,000, and divided into two groups. One of them attacked Han Sui, the rebels of Hanyang, and the other was the reason that Zhang Li, the prefect of Jincheng, did not obey the orders, and Cheng Qiu led an army of 100,000 to attack. The news came out and shocked the world.
Geng Bi attacked Hanyang, Jincheng without the approval of Emperor Han. Geng Bi made a decision without authorization and ignored the majesty of the royal family to a certain extent. However, the Han court did not pursue this too much, which was intriguing. The Han Emperor clearly wanted to benefit the fisherman.
The world's remarks gathered in Liangzhou again, especially in this place called Jincheng. Those who are interested have estimated that Jincheng's wealth is definitely an asset that can move anyone.
Huangfu Song guarded Chang'an, and Geng Bi, Jincheng and Hanyang's army fought to the death, and took the opportunity to seize the power of Liangzhou and consolidate its rule.
Cheng Qiu and Geng Bi were in great power, and the counties along the way fled to the wind.
Cheng Qiu led his troops to capture Cheng Ji without bloodshed. Because Cheng Nao had no defenders at all, when the people saw the army coming, they took the initiative to open the city gate to welcome the army into the army. On the one hand, Cheng Qiu reported good news to Geng Bi and stepped up his pace toward the other two counties. In just half a month, Cheng Qiu had "occupied" the three counties, greatly encouraging the morale of the army.
In the letter, Cheng Qiu tried his best to exaggerate his achievements and exhausted his vocabulary to describe these three battles vividly.
The successive victory paralyzed Geng Bi, mistakenly thinking why the Western Liang army and Han Sui were just bragged by timid officials.
At the same time, Geng Bi also led his army to capture Lueyang. In order to encourage the soldiers, Geng Bi ordered the soldiers to rob the people in the city.
For a moment, there were sorrows everywhere in Lueyang City.
After spending such a period of time together, Jia Rong learned a little about Lu Bu’s thoughts.
"Fengxian, how are you doing recently?" Jia Rong sat next to Lu Bu and asked.
Lu Bu said: "It's OK!"
Jia Rong smiled and said, "I know you like Fu'er."
In Lu Bu's panic-looking eyes, Jia Rong continued: "Fu'er is a beautiful and kind woman. It's normal for you to like her, but feelings are always a matter of two people. It's not sweet to force melons. As long as Fu'er chooses you, I will never frown. A real man should be able to take it and put it down."
Lu Bu's expression moved slightly, but when he thought that his competitor was Jia Rong, his head unconsciously lowered and lowered his head in front of Jia Rong to the proud Lu Bu.
"There are no grass everywhere in the world, and there are so many beautiful women in the world. At that time, Fengxian has all the money and power, so why not have a wife? Even if you have a beautiful wife and concubine now, do you have the corresponding strength to protect them?" Jia Rong advised: "Good men should gallop on the battlefield, gain fame, and then keep their reputation in history, so that future generations can remember it. If you live your life in a simple way, it is better not to speak out."
After pondering for a long time, Lu Bu bowed to Jia Rong and said, "Thank you for your reminder!"
Jia Rong helped Lu Bu up and said righteously: "You and I are brothers, why bother with these false gifts!"
Lu Bu was very excited when he heard this. The words that Gao Shun had advised him before disappeared and said, "Brother, you and I will join hands. Where can I go in this world? Bu is willing to be the front of my brother."
Jia Rong nodded and said, "It is reasonable for the words of our ancestors. We have good fortune and hardship."
"Yes." Lu Bu nodded excitedly.
