Gongsun Xun was playing wildly all day long at the foot of Handan City, but no one said anything to stop him.
Among them, the lower-level soldiers and low-level officers in the army are naturally very happy... They like to play Cuju, and they like to go to the military market on the Amway to exchange their general pay or so-called allowance vouchers for cloth, money and food, and then specify their home address to get a discount.
Ask the other party to help send it over. If you are in a desperate mood and can't help but exchange money directly, you can't help but take advantage of your vacation to enjoy a little bit in Handan City, a world-famous metropolis.
In fact, after half a year of siege and military confrontation, Handan City relied on military logistics in an almost abnormal way and quickly recovered.
As for the high-ranking generals and some of the staff and officers in the army, it is not that no one thought about letting Gongsun Xun take advantage of the victory and march south to Wei County.
But firstly, the death of Wei Yue brought some extra psychological shock to everyone; secondly, Guan Yu and Shenpei's advance was extremely fast. One had captured Liyang and completed the encirclement, and the other had calmly marched forward.
Crossing the Zhang River and stationed in Guangzong, they reached the key points of Yuan Shao's waist and abdomen. Now that this strategic move has been completed, it can't be said to have delayed the military plane in any case; more importantly, except for Gongsun Xun, there is no real person in the army.
The important figures, that is, the three military advisers, plus the three generals Dong Zhao, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, and Xu Rong, have completely unified their caliber and clearly proposed the concept of winter camp and spring battle, allowing the entire army to
Following Wang Jian's example in attacking Chu, he recharged his batteries and waited for the battle, which made the people below even more unable to speak.
And as time went by, almost everyone in the army, both inside and outside Handan City, was certain that Gongsun Xun would wait until spring before sending out all his troops to kill the dogs in Wei County!
Therefore, from October to November, and from November to the twelfth lunar month, there have been several winter snows, but the 50,000 to 60,000 troops have been stationed in the south of Handan City with peace of mind, except for a slight rotation with several nearby cities along the way.
It can be said to be standing still!
Someone with good intentions has calculated that Gongsun Xun wasted most of the winter under Handan City, wasting military pay, military supplies, and military rations, but in exchange he only gained seven military baths, fifteen military markets, and a Cuju competition.
Fifty to three! And according to General Wei, the thirty-two teams in the army must compete for eight, eight, sixty-four games to be considered complete, and then the only winner will be determined.
However, on the afternoon after the fifty-third game, when the entire army was boiling water for the eighth large-scale bathing, countless sentry riders came from the south under the smoke and water vapor.
They all returned one after another, bringing news that Gongsun Xun had been waiting for all winter - Yuan Shao finally sent troops!
The army, no less than 40,000, was densely packed in Yecheng, and then headed east along the Zhang River, as if heading straight for Guangzong. It is conceivable that when he got there, he would have gathered the soldiers and horses from Anping and Qinghe, as well as some
The newly recruited soldiers from Yanzhou and Qingzhou re-mobilized a so-called "big army" in an attempt to make a final struggle and effort under Guangzong's walls.
There was no way to hide the news, and there was no need to hide it. Therefore, Gongsun Xun's army under Handan City was instantly excited. However, in the face of such a military situation, Gongsun Xun still maintained an unacceptable calmness - he continued to take a bath and changed his clothes.
Clothes, the military meeting was only convened in the evening, and it was only a small military meeting with a few senior military officers, as if they had already planned it in their hearts.
"At the end of October, Yuan Shao took advantage of his victory in recovering Ye City and appointed Ju Shou as the Grand Governor, taking charge of internal and external military affairs. Compared with Feng Ji, who inherited the position of Chen Gongshi, he was actually the real general shogunate." The one with a chimney.
Next to the stove, he put on a new crown and his hair was still wet. Gongsun Xun looked curious. "It was precisely because of the constant advice from Duke Ju and the local people in Wei County that Yuan Shaocai never left Wei County. Why did he still stay in Wei County?"
Once you walked east? What can you say?"
"What could be the reason?" Tian Feng glanced at the pretentious Gongsun Xun. Maybe it was because the matter involved his old friend Jushou, so he felt inexplicably upset. "A general is hanging but not attacking, just like he is holding his bow but not firing, and then uses it in the middle.
, Yuan Benchu was frightened after all, and then was fueled by villains, so he pretended to attack eastward and actually fled... Isn't this exactly what the general wanted? How come he got what he wanted, but he didn't understand? "
"Brother Yuan Hao misunderstood." Dong Zhao, who had also just taken a shower and was looking increasingly swarthy and fat, raised his head and smiled at the side and answered. "The Lord just asked about the cause of the matter and did not go into details, and the matter is indeed true.
There are some sayings…”
Most people's expressions remained unchanged, but Tian Feng frowned more and more.
In other words, Tian Yuanhao usually only conflicts with Gongsun Xun, but he is in harmony with his colleagues. But when it comes to Dong Zhao, he always finds it difficult to be friendly. First of all, it is Dong Zhao's behavior and the so-called natural incompatibility of the three views.
Secondly, Dong Gongren, as an old subordinate of Gongsun Xun, returned to the army this time, but it was logical that he had the same trust as Guan Yu. To put it bluntly, the formation in Chang'an was naturally and destined to be shaken.
The seemingly stable political structure was destined to be only a temporary measure; and in the end, Dong Zhao happened to take on an extremely important but extremely unpopular position.
Yes, it is military law and intelligence... Although there is no such thing as a spy chief these days, similar things are self-evident. Cao Cao's army has a 'school official', and Yuan Shao's army also has a 'chief secretary'.
Previously, Wang Kuang and his wife spent half a year in Hanoi setting up "shengs" to collect information from the people and use it to blackmail them.
Let no one talk about this thing. It has been an indispensable force in military and political situations since ancient times.
In fact, as the most powerful strategist in the army, Tian Feng knew before that the military commanders and chief administrators had extra tasks. He also knew what Zhong Yao and Xi Zhong were vaguely doing in Chang'an.
, this time in the army, we knew more about what extra information Zhang Ji, the leader of Baima Yicong's civil affairs, was responsible for.
But compared with Dong Zhao, who was the previous Zhang Ji?
As a member of the Yuan Cong family, Dong Gongren's so-called qualifications, official rank, merit, hard work, and even emotional depth are all there. After he took over this position, coupled with his personal ability and style, it made this position extremely threatening.
The increase naturally aroused the vigilance of those who came from traditional Confucian scholar-bureaucrat backgrounds.
After all, it’s just other people, how could smart people like Tian Feng be fooled by Dong Gongren’s black face? Among them, Tian Yuanhao naturally couldn’t hide his own expression.
"Tell me about it!" Gongsun Xun was really interested. "What does Gongren know?"
"It's easy to say. I just asked about the details of the return trip in Ye City and found out that before Yuan Shao left, he made his only son who had passed the age of tying up his hair, that is, the eldest son Yuan Tan, to be his disciple.
He specifically left Yuan Tan in Yecheng to take charge of the keys to the Chariot and Cavalry General's Mansion..."
"That's it!" Gongsun Xun's face showed a look of astonishment. "Yuan Benchu actually blocked Ju Gongyu's mouth with a son. How could Ju Gong and a serious scholar stand such an action... Unexpectedly, but
It is reasonable, I can only say that Guo Tu has good methods!"
"Guo Gongze is so clever." Dong Zhao sneered when he heard this. "In the final analysis, the king certainly left space for Guo Tu and others to fight with peace of mind, but if Yuan Shao hadn't nodded, how could Guo Tu dare to use his lord's eldest son to fight?
Tied Jushu and waiting for death in Yecheng? Just like what brother Yuan Hao just said, if Yuan Shao himself didn't feel timid and wanted to escape eastward, how could Guo Tu and the Yingchuan people have moved them, no matter how powerful they were?
What about Yuan Shao? The only thing worthy of emotion in this matter is that he exchanged his son's life for his father's life. Yuan Benchu was able to do this, which is really eye-opening."
Tian Feng finally became impatient: "Mr. Dong Fu, Yuan Shao is afraid of going east because what I said is true, but one code must be the same... Although he is an enemy, Yuan Tan is the eldest son of Yuan Benchu, and he is the only son with tied hair.
Yuan Benchu, the only available son, clearly did this because he was confused and did not see his behavior clearly, and then he had no choice but to do it. How come it comes to your mouth, as if he deliberately regarded his eldest son as a discarded thing? "
Dong Zhao smiled and said nothing.
"Yuan Hao, don't be too extreme." Gongsun Xun also quickly changed his face. "That's not what Gong Ren and I meant. There are two sides to this matter. From a military point of view, Yuan Shao wants to lead the main force to escape, but from a moral and etiquette point of view
, His move cannot be said to be a failure to Duke Ju in any case, and it is enough to make the local people in Wei County feel at ease, and even means that the monarch and his ministers can get along with each other..."
"Why do you have to be so magnanimous?" Dong Zhao finally retorted solemnly. "Commander Tian is just deceiving himself like Yuan Shao... Yuan Shao was obviously afraid of running away, but he deceived everyone and even deceived himself that he was using offense instead of defense.
, is to leave Wei Commandery east to pull out the nail of Shen Zhengnan; but Military Advisor Tian clearly knew what was going on, but because it was not worth it to be an old friend, he had to give Yuan Shao a reason for his behavior, as if he said so,
In the future, Duke Ju will be able to leave his name in history... isn't this a deception to oneself and others?"
Tian Feng suddenly felt his chest stagnant, and the Chinese army tent was also dull for a while.
However, Dong Zhao rarely got angry. He didn't even look at Tian Feng and continued to speak sternly: "As for Ju Gong and his people, they are famous people in Jizhou. They have great ambitions and extraordinary talents. Almost everyone in Hebei knows about them, but because of his
They look down on the princes and border officials, and they rely on their talents. They think that they can turn the world upside down with their own strength, and go against the trend, so that they are not kind to others. To achieve this result, it can only be said that seeking benevolence will lead to benevolence. It is arrogant.
Excusing him may seem like you are doing something for him, but in fact it is destroying the only thing he has worth... Let me say it below, this kind of hero of an enemy country should be killed to achieve all his virtues and overthrow his ambitions.
That’s right! If you praise it too much, then I dare to ask you, where will you put the people who died for the peace of the world?!"
The silence in the Chinese military tent became increasingly silent, and Tian Feng finally felt sad.
In fact, those present here are all the top smart people in the world. There is no need to say anything else. Dong Zhao does not even need to tell Yuan Shao that Yuan Shao had sent his step-wife Mrs. Liu and his youngest son Yuan Shang to Wulu City a few days ago. Tian Feng and others
I also understand in my heart... To put it bluntly, since Yuan Shao is leaving east at this time, no matter whether he lied to himself and said he was going to deal with Shen Pei, in fact he is undoubtedly escaping from Gongsun Xun's heavy troops and Wei Jun's encirclement.
And since he is running away, what's the use of having a son here? Hasn't he already made a choice subconsciously?
Only this person actually gave up a son, and it seemed that he was the eldest son. Given the special status of the eldest son in Confucian concepts, it was hard for everyone to imagine.
As for Jushou, as a Confucian scholar-official, the reason why he can no longer resist Yuan Shao is precisely for this reason - the eldest son has been handed over to you Jushu, and the eldest son has been left to live and die with the city of Ye. What else do you want?
If you persist any longer, it will be an insult to the character of the lord Yuan Shao, and it will also deny the traditional Confucian values. A minister, a private minister in troubled times, is to let you die, and there will be an heir of the lord buried with you.
Is there any reason not to die?
This is an unsolvable ethical bond in this era. Even if it is explained by the most naked profit and conspiracy, it is unsolvable - father and son are one, so the father is replaced by his son, the king and his ministers are inferior, so the ministers die for the king!
"Let's not talk about this matter." Gongsun Xun thought for a while and did not say anything for a long time, but he shook his head again and again. "Now that the matter has come to this, I think we can wait for Yuan Shao's main force to advance eastward to Guangzong City before sending out all his troops to avoid
He stopped again and turned back to camp. What do you think?"
The military advisors looked at each other without saying anything, because this was what they had discussed before.
"That's good." Gongsun Xun raised his hand to signal. "Everyone, please go back to your duties. You must appease the army's lieutenants and generals and let them wait with peace of mind. Prepare to celebrate the New Year here and discuss military affairs after the New Year... My dear gentlemen, things are different now.
In the past, Yuan Benchu seemed to be attacking, but in fact he was fleeing. It seemed that the momentum was still there, but in fact he was timid in his heart. We left the overall situation to Shen Zhengnan, and when he used up Yuan Benchu's last breath, we sent the entire army to end the overall situation in Hebei.
!”
Everyone was originally a little uneasy by the sudden dispute, but when they heard this, they felt relieved, and then they were ready to leave.
"Yuan Hao went to take a look at Gong Sui and give him a little reminder, so as not to react in the future and many of his people would find it difficult to bear." After everyone stood up, Gongsun Xunfu casually gave instructions. "Uncle, Lord Yoshie is staying here.
...I have something else to say."
Everyone just paused for a moment and then walked away as instructed.
"Your Majesty, what do you want to ask me?" As soon as everyone left, Lou Gui and Han Dang immediately raised their hands and asked.
"It's nothing else." Gongsun Xun said seriously. "It's just that when I mentioned that Yuan Shao entrusted Yuan Tan to leave Ju Shou with no way to stop him, I thought of Changping... Did I forget to tell you that at the end of the year?
Is Ziheng coming here?"
Lou Gui and Han Dang were each startled.
But soon, Lou Gui, who was the first to react, asked a key question: "Now that Zi Heng is here, where will Mr. Ding and his wife go? Is it to Chang'an? Or Liaodong?"
Gongsun Xun immediately nodded: "My original intention was to let the mother and son go to Liaodong, but my wife has a letter here, saying that it is enough for her to go to Liaodong to visit my father-in-law's family, but not the children. She intends to let the rest of the family go.
At my mother's house in Chang'an, Ading was the only one who wanted me to teach him something personally, so he was asked to accompany Zi Heng here..."
"Then what does Junhou mean?" Lou Gui became more cautious.
"Originally I didn't care about it," Gongsun Xun said frankly. "But today's incident with Duke Ju made me feel that if Ading were to accompany Zi Heng here, it might not be a good thing for Zi Heng. As for Ading,
It was too early to speak, he didn’t even tie his hair..."
The more Han Dang listened, the more strange he became. Finally he couldn't help but interject and asked: "Jun Hou, whenever you are here, Zi Heng and Ding Gongzi come as they please. Why is it good or bad?"
"That's the problem." Gongsun Xun looked at Han Dang and said with a smile. "I intend to wait until the ice melts in the spring and Guangzong City is successfully attacked. I will no longer stay in the army, but let Zi Heng use me to make history."
The name is Zheng, and you two will be your deputy, and the three of you will be the governors of military advisors, governors of prefectures and counties, and army lieutenants to take charge of the war in Hebei and destroy Yuan Shao."
"Then where are you going?" Han Dang was stunned for a long time before he asked carefully.
"Calculating the time, it was spring plowing at that time. I was originally planning to go back to Youzhou to inspect something. It happened that Ading came here, so I took him to walk around behind you to see what is the foundation of the country.
." Gongsun Xun replied slowly. "What do you think?"
"Your Majesty has the final say." Han Dang really had no idea. "My subordinates just obey orders... But with my subordinates here, the army will try their best to help Lu Changshi maintain his position, and if I want to come to Lu Changshi, I will
With his past prestige, the generals in the army should not be dissatisfied."
"My subordinates also think it's okay." Lou Gui thought for a moment and agreed again. "But it might be better to remove my subordinates and let Shen Zhengnan be his deputy..."
Gongsun Xun thought for a moment after hearing this, and then nodded slightly.
In the twelfth lunar month of the first year of Jian'an, Yuan Shao asked Wei Jun and his eldest son Yuan Tan to confer with the governor Ju, and then went eastward to Guangzong, gathering Anping Fengji, Pingyuan Cui Yan, and captured 80,000 troops, but they besieged the city for more than ten days and could not attack until the end of the year. And almost.
At the same time, Gongsun Xun finally waited for his eldest son Gongsun Ding and his eldest official Lu Fan, as well as a large amount of grain, grass and luggage to accompany them.
Years later, on the third day of the first lunar month, General Wei Gongsun Xun finally no longer hesitated. He swore an oath at the foot of Handan City and issued a message to the whole of Hebei. Then the entire army of 60,000 people abandoned Wei County and immediately headed east to attack Yuan Shao.
At the same time, Guan Yunchang also gave up the attack on Wei County, but abandoned a small number of defensive troops and concentrated 20,000 elite troops along the Yellow River, which was still in flood, to attack Dongjun.
When Yuan Shao heard the news, he was so confused that he hesitated in Guangzong City for several days.
