Chapter 554 The king has benevolence
It was mentioned in the previous article: It is easy to get a thousand troops, but it is hard to find a general.
So what is more difficult to find than a general? Of course, it is to command the coach who has a gully in his heart. If this coach is still his own father, it is absolutely difficult and rare.
Huang Zhong and Zhang Liao were able to abandon the former army to rescue Gan Ning, how could Sun Ce put his father Sun Jian in danger for thousands of soldiers? Therefore, Huang Zhong just said a short sentence, and by the way, Yan Liang, who was injured in the business trip, lit up hundreds of thousands of torches outside the mountain, and Sun Ce was already scared and fled in a hurry.
"Elder General, it seems that you have a solution, otherwise it would be not easy for us to achieve such a great victory tonight!" Seeing Niu Gai, Ma An and others leading their soldiers to capture Sun Ce's deserters everywhere, Zhang Liao could not bear the joy.
In fact, it is not because Zhang Liao was worried too much. Although their troops were far more powerful than Sun Ce and Han Dang, and their knights were far from comparable to those of Sun Jian’s soft-legged crabs in terms of skills, tactics, armor and weapons. But as the saying goes, “A man is iron rice and steel, and he is hungry for no meal.”
Their warriors have followed them from Xinxi to Feiying Valley, then from Feiying Valley to Anyang, and then Anyang rushed to Yangquan overnight, traveling for a thousand miles, never sleeping, never eating or drinking, even the iron man can't stand it, let alone them all are flesh and blood!
Huang Zhong’s plan to cheat soldiers is truly a masterpiece!
Their soldiers had a short rest time, and the defeat and escape of Sun Ce and Han Dang made the soldiers in Jiangdong collapse directly. Although the battle in Yuzhou has not yet ended, the battle in the dense forest has given them a crucial victory, and they still won!
Otherwise, how could Zhang Liao be so excited with his steady character?
Huang Zhong stroked his beard and smiled: "Actually, I am not completely deceiving them. Although I did use General Yan's name and pull his banner, didn't the lord say that the general was going to Lu'an?"
Zhang Liao laughed when he heard this. The old Huang Zhong's personality really had a little naughty nature. What he said and did was so hated that he gritted his teeth, but it was so blocked that he couldn't say it. When Sun Ce met him, he could only say that he had suffered eight lifetimes of trouble!
"Speaking of this, in addition to thanking General Yan for this battle, I'm afraid that I would have to give Cao Mengde a banner. After all, without him quietly leaving Anfeng for Xuzhou, how could General Yan suddenly change his way to Yulou and confuse Sun Ce's eyes?" Gan Ning also smiled.
It turned out that Cao Cao had severely damaged his vitality for a while, so he decided to withdraw from Yuzhou and go south to Xuzhou, intending to connect Xuzhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou and Yuzhou Qiaojun and Huainan to rebuild his own base.
However, he was as deep as Liu Bei, so he naturally didn't want Liu Bei to pick up his missed child, and he got a county in vain without any effort. So, while he made great efforts, he personally led a military horse to Huainan and Qiao County, while he also planted various flags in the city of Anfeng and outside the city to confuse all living beings.
However, several main troops under his command, such as Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun, Xu Zhu, Cao Ren, etc., had already left Anfeng at night. In addition to a few yamen runners who maintained order, the city had become a veritable empty city.
It was precisely when Yan Liang received a letter from Feige from Wang Li from Anfeng City that he changed the way to Yulou.
Zhang Liao nodded and sighed, "Sun Tzu said: Therefore, the power of fighting people is good at fighting, like turning a round stone into a mountain thousands of feet high, which is the power. This is true and true. The power of Anfeng has changed early, but Sun Ce's son is not aware of the depth. General Huang is taking advantage of the power reasonably, how can Sun Ce be undefeated?"
"General Wenyuan, don't put this high hat on me. I can't bear the problem with my neck." Huang Zhong shook his head, with a little bit of admiration and gratitude in his words, "If you want to say that this is the best person in the world who is good at leveraging power, I think there is no one else except the lord!"
"How can I explain this?" Gan Ning looked at Huang Zhong in confusion.
However, Zhang Liao agreed with Huang Zhong's words quite a bit and nodded, saying, "The world's general trend will be together for a long time, and the combination will be together for a long time. On the weekend, the seven kingdoms will be divided into disputes and merged into Qin. After Qin's destruction, Chu and Han were divided into disputes and merged into Han.
Emperor Gaozu killed the snake and rebelled, Guangwu Wancheng raised an army, and the world gradually stabilized. However, since the two emperors Huan and Ling succeeded to the throne, they appointed treacherous officials and small officials to implement party corruption, and since then the country was in slump. Until Zhangjiao rebelled, the nine provinces had smoke again and the princes had a dispute.
Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Liu Bei, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao wished they could immediately take charge of the center and take over the Han Dynasty. They were either capable, either watching the tiger or watching the eagle, or using any means, but they could only become jokes in the world.
But the lord is different. Although he was born in a noble family, he was kind and righteous, and compassionate with the people. He kept his ambitions for thousands of miles. This is the blessing of the world and the people. All forces that oppose the people will inevitably be submerged in the torrent of history."
"Who said no? The king has kindness and kindness, and Xingwei is also muddy." Huang Zhong nodded and took over the topic, "Wen Yuan didn't know my husband's predicament that day, but Xingba was completely involved. If it were not for the kindness and righteousness of the lord, my Huang family would have been defeated long ago!
The lord loves the people and benevolence, but he also understands that the real trend of the world lies in the people. The power of the people may be like the spring breeze, the wind blows grass and grows lush trees and greens all over the south of the Yangtze River; the power of the people may be like floods, the water crosses the mountains and collapses the dam and falls into the squalls and the country."
The three of them were talking when they suddenly heard a loud sound of horse hooves, and a scout rushed from a distance with a torch.
"Three generals, I just received an urgent report from Anyang: The lord has returned to Yuanlu, and personally led the Taishi Ziyi, Wen Chou and Han Meng to attack Lu'an in Huoqiu. Please help the lord rescue the old prefect Lu!"
Huang Zhong and Gan Ning both responded and took the report from the scout, but Zhang Liao was slightly shocked: "Xingba, I remember when the lord went to Pengze Lake and had he been rejected by Mr. Lu?"
Gan Ning nodded, Zhang Liao and Huang Zhong looked at each other, waved the bright moon halberd and the blood-drinking knife in their hands at the same time, and shouted loudly.
"The wise do not threaten the people to act, and the benevolent do not violate justice to seek merit. The lord is so kind and righteous, how can we fall behind? The whole army is sent to leave a school of troops to clean up the battlefield and escort the prisoners. The other brothers set off quickly, and be sure to assist the lord to rescue Duke Lu from the dangerous place!"
...
At the top of the Lu'an city, the torches that were planted high above the city were still burning. Lu Kang, Lu Xun, Lu Lin and others had already appeared on the city wall.
"Boyan, do you think your former general will really come to rescue us? Wouldn't he really be jealous because the commander refused the alliance back then?" Lu Lin secretly looked at Lu Kang's face, grabbed Lu Xun, his eyes full of hope.
Yes, Lu Lin, Lu Yuntao and others had long developed the ambition to live and die with the commander and live and die with Lu'an. However, when things may turn around and they can see hope again, who would think they have a long life?
Lu Xun nodded: "Uncle Lu, just put your heart in your stomach. Sun Jian bullies the world and steals reputation, trying to divide the world by his own selfish interests. The lord will never ignore the righteousness just because of a few words from his former uncle.
The lord is like a sea of thought and be kind and righteous, far from comparable to the princes and today's emperors. Xun'er is not worried about whether the lord will lead his troops here. The only worry is..."
"The only worry is that I, the stubborn man, will forcefully reject his kindness and drag Lu'an into the sea of suffering again, right?" Before Lu Xun could finish his words, Lu Kang had already taken over the topic and turned to the two of them, his eyes staring like a bronze bell.
Old stubborn?
Lu Kang actually made himself stubborn in front of him?
Lu Lin was shocked when he heard this and hurriedly shook his head like a rattle, for fear that Lu Kang would beat him up when he was angry, but Lu Xun looked indifferent and raised his head to look at him without blinking his eyes.
"It seems that Wang Deyu is indeed capable. My former snot baby from Lumen dares to look at me today!" After glaring for a long time, Lu Kang suddenly laughed and patted Lu Xun's shoulder hard and slowly walked down the city wall. A voice floated from the city far away.
"If Wang Deyu could put the people first and the country as the key, and only focus on seeking long-term peace and stability in the world, even if I wanted me to respect him, I broke those sour and corrupt old customs and the constraints of imperial power, what would it be wrong?"
