Chapter 832: The Four Bandits of Mount Tai Offend Xiaoguan
Chapter 832: The four bandits of Mount Tai invade Xiaoguan
Zuo Yelong and Lu Lingqi sent Lu Bu off and returned to the camp, while Zuo Aoran led the generals and three thousand troops and horses into the city. Not to mention, Cao Cao and Liu Bei's troops were able to clean up the battlefield quickly.
, there was no resistance in the entire Xiapi city, and it was completely occupied by Cao Cao.
Not long after Zuo Aoran entered the city, Cao Cao and Liu Bei came up to him. Both of them were full of joy, but Zuo Aoran could still see that Liu Bei still had a sad look on his face. What was the reason for this?
, Zuo Aoran knows it all too well - Xuzhou!
At this moment, a group of soldiers came to Cao Cao. Zuo Aoran saw that it was Gao Shun and couldn't help but secretly thought: "If Gao Shun hadn't fought to the death to cut off the rear, I'm afraid Lu Bu wouldn't have been able to escape so easily! This Gao Shun
You are really loyal!"
Cao Cao looked at Gao Shun and asked, "What do you have to say?" Gao Shun looked at Cao Cao but did not answer. Cao Cao became furious and said to his left and right: "Push him down - kill him!"
"Wait a minute!" Zuo Aoran stopped him and said, "Brother Meng De doesn't know. Lu Bu led his army to break out of our camp and captured three generals of our army. I am worried that I have no way to replace the generals. This is not right.
Is it easy to use Gao Shun? Brother Meng De won’t be stingy, right?”
"Lü Bu escaped?" Cao Cao frowned, and then laughed and said: "Brother Yunlong doesn't need to ask me at this time, because Gao Shun was captured by Xuande's brother, so Yunlong can ask for it from Xuande, not Xuande."
I am Cao Cao!"
Liu Bei smiled slightly and said: "Exchanging one general for three generals is worth it!"
Zuo Aoran cupped his fists and said in thanks, "Thank you very much, Meng De and Xuande." Then he winked at He Yi and He Man, and the two of them escorted Gao Shun back to the camp.
"It's such a pity that Lu Bu got away!" Liu Bei said with emotion.
Zhang Fei suddenly said happily: "Now that Lu Bu has been swept out of Xuzhou, we can call it a great victory. We should reward the soldiers of the three armies and get drunk for three days and three nights!"
"The third general is right! You should get drunk before you stop!" Zuo Aoran also agreed.
For three days in a row, there was a big celebration in Xiapi City. Zuo Aoran also stayed in Xiapi City for three full days. He was drunk all day long. If the generals hadn't stopped him, he really didn't know what he would have been like.
On the fourth day, Zuo Aoran was still drinking with Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, Chen Deng and others. Suddenly, Jiang Yiqu burst in, came to Zuo Aoran, knelt down and worshiped: "Your Majesty, Hu Che
General Er has just received an urgent report from Xiao Pass. The four Taishan bandits took advantage of my army's absence to invade Xiao Pass. Now, looking up, General Zang Ba is in a stalemate with the bandits."
Although Zuo Aoran was drunk at this time, he immediately understood that in addition to one scribe and two injured generals in Xiaoguan, how could they defend Xiaoguan? Zuo Aoran immediately stood up and saluted Liu Bei, who was in the first place.
: "Xiaoguan was attacked, with less than three thousand soldiers and horses, and the guards were my two wounded sworn brothers. I had to lead the army to rescue my brother. Regarding the matter of Xuzhou, I will wait until my younger brother rescues Xiaoguan.
I will help my brother occupy Xuzhou."
Liu Bei stood up and said: "For the sake of brother, there is no rush. My dear brother, please help Xiao Guan!" Zuo Aoran left immediately and hurried to Dazhai with Chen Deng, Jiang Yiqu and other personal guards. Liu Bei, Zhang Fei and others also left the city.
Send each other off.
When Zuo Aoran arrived in front of Dazhai, he saw the sergeants busy. The generals were instructing the sergeants to pull out the tents, pack up the camp and prepare to leave. Seeing Zuo Aoran coming, Zhou Tai hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. Zuo Aoran asked hurriedly: "
Where is Hu Che'er?"
"General Hu Che'er and other generals are waiting for the Lord in the tent." Zhou Tai replied gruffly.
After Zhou Tai answered, he did not lead the way, and went aside to lead the sergeant to pack the baggage. Zuo Aoran did not take it seriously, got off his horse, and went to the Chinese army's tent. Chen Deng and Jiang Yiqu followed Zuo Aoran.
behind.
As soon as he entered the big tent, Zuo Aoran saw all the generals in full robes, and they were pacing anxiously. When he saw Zuo Aoran coming in, Liu Hu hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Ninth brother, there is an urgent message from Xiaoguan. The four bandits from Taishan are invading."
Xiaoguan has been attacked, and the Major General ordered the sergeants to break camp and prepare to assist Xiaoguan."
"It should be so!" Zuo Aoran nodded and said: "Zuo Yelong and Yan Liang are the vanguards, leading the three thousand troops. If we encounter bandits, they will all be wiped out. I and the other generals will lead the central army with the baggage.
Walk slowly."
"That's great!" Zuo Yelong said happily.
"The young general is too young to be a pioneer!" Chen Deng hurriedly advised.
Zuo Aoran waved his hand and said, "It's okay!"
Chen Deng raised his hands to Yan Liang and said, "The safety of the young general depends on the general. The general must be protected!" Yan Liang hurriedly handed over his hands and agreed without saying much. He hurriedly ordered troops and horses with Zuo Yelong and led the army.
Then head north.
The army moved forward, building roads across mountains and building bridges when encountering water. Fortunately, it was a road that had been traveled once before, and it was smooth and tight. There was nothing abnormal along the way. Until Guyuan, a small county south of Xiaoguan, it was still
No movement was found.
However, the walls of Guyuan County are in ruins, and there are stains of blood on them, which are obviously caused by a fight. As for the population in the city, there is no one, or in other words, there is not a single living creature. It is obvious that this county has suffered
After a thorough looting, the victor was obviously the bandits.
That night, Zuo Yelong originally wanted to march overnight, but was stopped by Yan Liang, so the army stayed in Guyuan City overnight. Although everything was quiet and a bit weird, speaking from Yan Liang's experience, he had seen even weirdest things.
I don’t care about such a quiet and quiet little city anymore.
However, the most basic reconnaissance and defense are still required. There are many open sentries, hidden sentries, and patrol teams. Of course, secretly, Yan Liang also ordered the primary schools to step up their vigilance and beware of enemy night attacks, regardless of whether the opponent comes or not.
, this most basic defense is indispensable.
The night passed peacefully without saying anything. Zuo Yelong didn't say much. He just gathered his troops and horses and headed towards Xiaoguan. After another half day's work, the army had already arrived at the foot of Xiaoguan City. He could see it from a distance.
The flag on the city wall was still the Han army flag, and the tall flag with the word "Left" in it was also flying. This situation made Yan Liang and Zuo Yelong heave a sigh of relief.
It seems that Xiaoguancheng has not been captured, so it will be easy to handle. If you eat me, spit it out, and if you take me, give me back. Although Yan Liang and Zuo Yelong don't know this classic line, an eye for an eye is an eye for an eye.
, I still know that tit for tat, Taishan four bandits, we have forged this hatred again.
"The lord's army is coming to help!"
The door of Xiaoguan opened, and Tao Qiuhong stumbled out. There was a musty smell all over his body. It seemed that he had not taken a bath for a long time. Gao Lan followed behind with a serious face, and his shoulders were still wrapped in white cloth. Obviously,
, Gao Lan was injured again.
Zuo Yelong quickly got off his horse and asked Gao Lan, "Uncle Gao, where are the bandits?"
Tao Qiuhong shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Xiaoguan City is high and deep, and difficult to break. The Taishan bandits retreated a few days ago, but Guyuan County in the south became a scapegoat and was breached by bandits. It is said that all people in the city, men, women, old and young, , were all robbed."
"I sent sergeants to Guyuan to investigate, but there was no one there. Although there were blood stains on the city wall, it was not much. I don't think there were many casualties. After all, Guyuan is just a small county town." Gao Lan took over the words and said: "It's just that. However, all the people in the city were robbed."
