Wang Kuang raised an army to attack Dong, so he naturally needed a colorful article to boost his morale.
There is absolutely no way Wang Kuang can do this. Even though he is quite famous among scholars and has also obtained the status of two thousand shi, when it comes to knowledge, Wang Kuang is really not that good.
, this is not what he is famous for.
Wang Kuang's reputation is somewhat similar to that of Zhang Miao, the current governor of Chenliu. Zhang Miao is one of the "Eight Chefs" who are famous all over the world. As mentioned before, the word "Che" in this "Eight Chefs" does not mean the other person.
It means that he is a cook or has something to do with the kitchen, but it means that he is hospitable and generous with his wealth. Although Wang Kuang's family wealth is not as rich as Zhang Miao, he was also a wealthy guest when he was young.
It is precisely for this reason that Wang Kuang, who has gained a good reputation and a good background, has the opportunity to advance.
So although there is nothing wrong with writing this article, Wang Kuang really doesn't have the skill to write a statement as sharp as a sword without making people feel like a shrew. The gap between this is probably the same as that of an Internet writer.
Compare it with Lu Xun.
However, although the article is not well written, Wang Kuang is not a rich man who only knows how to spend money. In fact, he is also an experienced commander. Of course, he commands no more than 500 people.
Small scale battle.
Wang Kuang was born in Taishan County, Yanzhou. Except for Fei County and Nancheng County, which originally belonged to Donghai County in the south, the land in Taishan County is relatively flat and fertile. Most of the other areas are hilly terrain with more mountains. Within the territory, Liangfu Mountain, Mengshan County, etc.
Mountains, Yuanshan, Guishan and the most famous Mount Tai can be said to be continuous, each with its own dangerous place, and all with the status of one man being in charge.
Just as the mountains of Kuaiji not only trained the Shanyue people to have a strong physique, but also made the Danyang soldiers one of the four major mercenaries in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Taishan County with complex terrain and dangerous terrain not only made the name of the Taishan bandits resound throughout the eastern Han Dynasty
area, let countless
The official position was a headache and even died, but at the same time, another army famous throughout the country was born - Taishan Qiannu. Although a force did not engage in mercenary work, the officials who came out of Taishan County were still active all over the country.
Elite troops.
Although they are said to be powerful crossbows, not many of these troops, most of which are powerful private soldiers, are capable of possessing the powerful standard crossbows of the Han Dynasty. What they possess are more crossbow machines that have been circulated among the people. Such
Crossbows are not as powerful as standard crossbows, and because there is no standardized production, maintenance and parts replacement are very cumbersome.
However, it is undeniable that the crossbow can be said to be the most lethal individual weapon in the cold weapon era, and it is also the long-range attack weapon with the most stable ballistics. Although the crossbow has even higher physical requirements for the soldiers operating the crossbow
Bow, but as long as you are proficient in operating the crossbow machine, the average hit rate of the crossbow will be far higher than that of a bow that relies solely on the feel of the crossbow.
Of course, the imperial court's standard crossbows are not only better in this regard, but they also have some more fearsome repeating crossbows. That kind of murderous weapon, which can be called the Maxim machine gun in the cold weapon era, can make any military unit stand out in front of it.
Can't afford to kneel down.
By the way, one of the gains of Li Shushi's trip to Luoyang was the manufacturing methods of those standard strong crossbows and repeating crossbows, and he also took away several accomplished craftsmen in this field. Now Li Shushi's only pity
It was a certain greatest inventor from the Three Kingdoms period. I don’t know if he was still in the embryonic stage, otherwise Li Shushi really had the urge to snatch him away.
Wang Kuang was born in Mount Tai, so naturally he often had to fight against the cunning bandits who came and went without a trace. At the same time, he was also surrounded by strong crossbowmen from his own family - although their profession was just ordinary-looking bows.
soldiers, but they are indeed a group of warriors who are accustomed to fighting with crossbows. Therefore, Wang Kuang is still very familiar with the battlefield.
Don't think that a fight between hundreds or even dozens of people is sometimes like a fight between two villages. In fact, when it comes to playing tricks and playing tricks, such small-scale battles can better highlight the big problems.
Details unimaginable in legion combat.
Of course, Wang Kuang now has not five or six hundred men, nor one or two thousand, but an army of tens of thousands. Commanding an army of this size is really a big deal for Wang Kuang - it is the first time, but
Wang Kuang still shows enough confidence. Therefore, all viewers, please look forward to his wonderful performance!
Huh? What's going on with these banana peels and the tomatoes over there? How do you know how many nights we're going to eat tomato scrambled eggs (no fog)? It would be better if you threw in a few more eggs. Prices now
It’s not easy for Gao Qi to eat an egg.
Okay, without further ado, let us return our attention to the battlefield.
"Everyone, although our attack this time has a tentative meaning, I think you should also know that Dong's Xiliang army is definitely not an easy bone to chew on. If we cross the Yellow River and fight a decisive battle in Henan, then
Our army has few soldiers, and it is difficult for our equipment to keep up with Dong's army who has Luoyang's treasury. Once defeated, I am afraid that the whole army will be annihilated."
"What your Excellency said makes sense. Although Luoyang has eight solid passes, there is Henei pressing down on it in the north, Jingxiang in the south pointing directly at its back, and a group of tyrants looking at it in the east. If there is a general who can cross Xiong'er Mountain and reach directly
Hongnong cut off his retreat, and Dong was trapped and died in Gucheng, Luoyang.
Among them. As long as we guard the natural dangers of the Yellow River and wait for the right time, and then either march west to the east of the river to block the return of Dong's thieves, or go south to respond to the princes of Guandong, then the Grand Administrator will surely achieve full success. Even if we cannot block the return of Dong's thieves.
, under three iron walls, the Dong thieves should also retreat in panic."
"He is indeed a talented young man from the Sima family. What Boda said makes sense and coincides with what I think."
Sima Lang didn't show any expression in response to Wang Kuang's compliment. Was it because it was something he should have been able to think of, so he found it easy, or did he feel that Wang Kuang who said that was too shameless and shameless?
What about far exposure?
Perhaps only Sima Lang himself knows this, but now the Sima family still relies on Wang Kuang, the prefect of Hanoi. Without the suppression of the prefect of Hanoi, it is doubtful whether the Sima family still exists in this world, so Sima Lang
Even if he really disdains Wang Kuang, he can't show it at all on his face, because the more villainous he is, the more difficult he is to deal with.
"It's just that there are so many crossings on the Yellow River. With our current strength, it's hard to deal with them. If Dong Thief mobilizes all his strength, it will be difficult for us to defend him. And although we are on top of Dong Thief, there are also people behind us.
We must guard against strong enemies."
At this time, a Confucian scholar dressed as a civil servant, sitting in the first seat to the right of Wang Kuang's head, spoke.
"Leave that guy to Benchu, we just need to concentrate on dealing with the Dong thief in front of us. In addition, as long as we can survive this period of time, when the princes from all over the world rise up together, Dong thief will be unable to do anything.
You can now sit back and relax.”
Because Li Shushi has transferred most of his main forces to the north recently, the princes of Guandong have some misconceptions, thinking that Li Shushi intends to continue to maintain a neutral tone in this imminent war. Although he dislikes this extremely speculative guy,
But Wang Kuang also had to admit that whether or not Li Shushi participated would have a huge impact on the battle situation.
However, Yuan Shao seemed confident in persuading Li Shushi to at least remain neutral. In other words, even if Li Shushi planned to help Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao seemed to have a way to prevent Li Shushi from causing trouble to the princes of Guandong.
The rich resources and vast connections of the Yuan family are obviously beyond what Wang Kuang can match and imagine, so instead of guessing what method Yuan Shao will use to get rid of Li Shushi, it is better to concentrate on how to deal with the behemoth Dong Zhuo in front of him.
"Yuan Si, you lead your army to Mengjin and wait for an opportunity to seize the Mengjin Pass to gain the initiative. Although the Xiliang Army is indeed difficult to deal with on the road, the ice on the Yellow River is melting now, and the horses of the Xiliang Army are simply running on it.
Don't get up. Wang De, you take the Taishan Army and Yuan Si to Heyang, and you must control Mengjin. Remember, whether you can capture Mengjin Pass is not the most important, the most important thing is that you must not let the soldiers on the other side of the river
One soldier ashore."
"The last general takes command!"×2.
The first person on the right and the second person on the left sitting under Wang Kuang, who had expressed concern just now, stood up at the same time.
Yuan Si, Han Yuan Si, that is, Wang Kuang's boss, Han Hao from Hanoi. Although he is a civil servant who is good at internal affairs, he has a courageous heart. Xiahou Dun was almost driven to death because of this courageous man, although that
The greater responsibility for this matter is not on Han Hao but on Xiahou Dun, but it can also be seen that his psychological quality at this time is really top-notch.
As for Wang De, there is not much to say. Wang Kuang is from the Taishan tribe, and only if he comes to command the Taishan Army, Wang Kuang's direct lineage plus ace troops, can Wang Kuang feel reassured.
The place where Han Hao and Wang De will lead their troops is the famous Mengjin area, a place that must be fought for if they want to control Luoyang.
Mengjin is located on the north bank of the Yellow River in the east of Ha Duong County, Hanoi County. The water potential of the Yellow River here is relatively gentle, and the flow rate is not as fast as the West River and the Hedong area. Moreover, because it carries a large amount of sediment from the Loess Plateau in the middle reaches, it is
Hanoi and the river
There are several large and small sandbars formed in the middle of the Yellow River in the south, especially in the north of Luoyang, just like Chongming Island in the Yangtze River Estuary. However, due to the limitation of the width of the Yellow River, the area of these sandbars is very limited.
But its military value is very high.
One of the most famous sandbars is the one in the middle of the Yellow River opposite Mengjin Ferry, an important pass called Mengjin Pass.
Although Mengjin and Mengjinguan have similar names and are only a few hundred meters apart, the two places are just like the mainland and the Pearl of the Orient. One belongs to Heyang County in Hanoi County, and the other belongs to Luoyang directly under the jurisdiction.
Mengjin can be said to be an area with a long history. When King Wu of Zhou conquered Zhou, he met with the princes to cross the river here, so it is also called Mengjin. Its meaning can be known from the literal meaning.
.And because Mengjin is located in Heyang, Mengjin is also known as Heyangjin. However, compared with the name Mengjin, Heyangjin is really not famous.
Opposite it, Mengjinguan, in the middle of the river, is a small city standing on a sandbank in the middle of the river. Although the castle is not large, it tightly locks the Yellow River waterway like a big lock, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
, so even Wang Kuang knew that the Xiliang army was not used to water warfare, but he didn't have high hopes for attacking Mengjin Pass.
By the way, there is another pass located on the Hexi Shazhou about 10 kilometers west of Mengjing Pass. This pass is Xiaopingjinguan, one of the eight passes in Luoyang along with Mengjing Pass.
