Bai Lang entered the prefect's house and heard that Yuan Shao's adviser Guo Tuguo Gongze had arrived. Bai Lang went to meet this man at the prefect's house. He saw that this man sent a letter but it was Yuan Shao's own handwriting. Bai Lang unfolded the brocade silk and looked at it with admiration.
In his tone, when Bai Lang raised his head and looked at Guo Tu, Tu also bowed his hands in salute, "The general is brave enough to conquer the world, and Yuan Jizhou has admired him for a long time. Now that the world is in chaos, it is the time for heroes to use force. I have always known the general's life.
The ambition is to help the Han Dynasty, and the ambition of my Lord Yuan Jizhou in his life is also the same..."
Bai Lang knew what this meant as soon as he heard it. After all, his IQ was not low. Wasn't Yuan Shao's intention to recruit a strong general like him? If the recruitment was successful, not only would he be able to get countless strong generals in the world, but he would even be able to control half of Bingzhou.
It's really a good deal. "Just wait and see, let me think about it." Bailang asked Guo Tu to stay in the guest room of the prefect's mansion, and he took the letter to "consider" it himself.
Although Bailang is the official Bingzhou Mu who has just been granted the title of Mu by the imperial court, no advisers have defected to him so far. Perhaps it is because he has only occupied Xihe Taiyuan for a short period of time, or perhaps because there are many warriors in Bingzhou but few advisers, and all the advisers have gone to other places.
He made a living. "Suddenly I remembered that I was still Lu Bu's state shepherd." Bai Lang stroked his cracked beard and smiled. He didn't need to find an adviser, because he decided from the beginning that he would not surrender to Yuan Shao.
There's nothing else, I'm just dissatisfied with the behavior of a young master like Yuan Shao who wants to make Liu Yu the emperor instead of rescuing the young emperor. But it seems that Uncle Liu will do the same thing in the future? But after all, Liu Bei thought that he had already dedicated himself to the emperor.
He only ascended the throne after his death. Whether he can move up or down in this position can only be done by "making mistakes." "Forget it, forget about it. Just appease Guo Tu today and reject him tomorrow."
Bai Lang didn't like the drinks at this time. After dinner, he practiced martial arts for a while and then read a book and went to bed. The poor Bingzhou shepherd didn't even have a maid, so he fell asleep alone.
At this time, the heroes such as Yuan Shao did not have a daughter to marry, otherwise they would probably recruit Bai Lang as their son-in-law. Bai Lang was lying in bed counting all the beauties in the world. The famous women at this time... Lu Bu's
The concubine Diao Chan counts as one, Cai Yong's widowed daughter Cai Yan counts as one, and the others seem to be gone? It seems that Yuan Shao's daughter-in-law Zhen Ji hasn't married yet, right?
In such random thoughts, Bai Lang fell asleep.
The next day Bai Lang got up early to work up his strength and practice martial arts. The Yun Shui Yao spun freely in his hands, stabbing like a dragon emerging from the water, and slashing like thunder and lightning. The double iron mace also worked well in his hands.
At this time, Bailang did not bring two iron maces, but a thin iron mace made separately and a Huan Shou Dao. There was no way that if he really brought all the horses, it would be too much. Bailang did not have a famous horse in his hand.
ah.
His Snowflake Blue is only five and a half feet tall at the shoulders, and is already considered a very good war horse. However, its strength and visual effects are far inferior to Lu Bu's Red Rabbit.
After the martial arts performance was over and the grooming was done, Bai Lang also met Guo Tu again. He took out the letter he had written and gave it to Guo Tu, "Although I am not talented, I don't want to join Yuan Benchu. I want to make Liu Bo'an and Liu Shijun the emperor. Where is this?"
He is considered loyal to the Han Dynasty." After saying this, he asked Guo Tu to leave. "Bai Bingzhou wants to die?" Guo Tu was quite brave and said this. "Bingzhou is here. If Yuan Benchu wants to take him, he will lead an army.
Come and get it.”
After Guo Tu left, Bailang also sighed, and the guards on the left and right said, "I wonder why the general sighed?"
"It's just because Yuan Benchu came here and had to fight, so he didn't have time to attack the pass and drive away the Xiliang rebels." Bai Lang said, and Yuan Shao's army seemed to have been well prepared, and Yan Liangwen, Chou Zhang He and Gao Gao watched.
Si Tingzhu of Hebei led his army as the vanguard to approach Jinyang, and he took Bailang very seriously. Lu Bu was a brave general without equal in the world, and Bailang could compete with him, so he was naturally a powerful general who could fight against a thousand soldiers.
People at that time even said that the so-called unparalleled cavalry warrior was Lu Bu, while the so-called unparalleled warrior in infantry combat was Bai Lang. His single-man raid on Hangu Pass has become world-famous. Bai Lang is now considered a loyal man of the Han Dynasty, which made Li Guo and others also
I had to hold my nose and give him an official title. Bailang also brought his three thousand soldiers. Yes, the entire Xihe County plus half of Taiyuan County was just that. The rest were all divided by Bailang and rushed back to farm.
.
Among them, there were 800 cavalry and 2,200 infantry. Among the infantry, there were 800 crossbowmen, 1,000 spearmen, and 400 shield bearers. The Bailang army had plundered the Xiongnu and collected tens of thousands of Xiongnu and Qiang people for farming.
For grazing, the military rations were hauled by horse-drawn carriages, and a large number of cattle and sheep were also driven for military rations. In addition to their equipment, the entire Xihe Army looked more like the armies of the Huns and Qiang people, with countless cattle and sheep in the area.
Follow them as they move.
Bailang ordered the infantry to drive the cattle and sheep behind under the leadership of more than a dozen Sima who he promoted from Suwei. He himself led 800 cavalry and rushed directly to Jinyang City first. Yuan Shao's Jizhou army was 80,000, and the forward force was 80,000.
Twenty thousand people entered Jinyang City. Although Jinyang City was closed, they probably would not resist resolutely. After all, they did not resist Bailang, so naturally they would not resist the army of Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao.
Besides, most of the county troops in Jinyang City who had been disbanded by Bai Lang were unable to defend it. The reason why the four forwards did not attack the city was because they wanted to fight Bai Lang outside the city. If they defended the city, they would probably be restricted.
Without their own mobility, they already knew that Bailang had led the cavalry and rushed over first. Bailang arrived, regardless of fatigue. Of course, the main reason was that the cavalry behind him was a little tired, but his morale was very high.
The only good thing about Bailang being the prefect was that he finally had a decent pair of armor built for him. This armor was like fish scales, with tongue-shaped fine iron pieces as big as a child's hand. It was supposed to be worn with leather belts, but Bailang asked the craftsmen to use it.
Iron rings are used instead of belts, which not only increases the weight, but also makes the collar armor stronger. This armor ranges from the two collars draped on the body to the arm guards, to the hanging skirts and leg guards on the calves.
The armor on the feet makes the whole person look like a dragon wrapped in fish scales.
There was no neck protector or high collar, and there was only a semicircular piece of standing armor in front of the throat to slightly block it. This armor was not too bulky, and Bai Lang knew that he couldn't add horse armor, otherwise his snowflake green attack would be weak after two attacks.
. Now he weighs more than 400 kilograms with armor and weapons in hand, and it is already very difficult for the horse to carry him. If the war horses in this world are not the Mongolian horses of later generations, but more similar to the war horses of Central Asia, otherwise it is really useless.
As soon as Bailang arrived, he rushed directly in front of Yuan Shao's army to challenge him, leading the 800 cavalry behind him to press directly towards Yuan Shao's forward. If Yuan's army had no one to engage and their morale weakened, he could immediately lead the cavalry into the formation. Then he shouted loudly, "
I'm here to fight you!" A general from Yuan's army came out and killed him.
