Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

245 Chapter 244
In the incident of the two Yuan's seizures, Lu Bu stole the foundation of the Northern Kingdom, which caused a huge sensation at the time, but Jiang Yiqu in Liyang City was not panicked.

In fact, the four court pillars in Hebei defected and Yuan Shao died, Jiang Yiqu no longer had any scruples in his heart.

Is it right to be a general for whom? The four court pillars can change the gate, what's the matter, can't change the master if I am a Polu general?

Moreover, judging from the situation after Si Tingzhu changed his vote, changing masters, the treatment is not much worse.

It wasn't until Lin Mo started a major blood change in order to stabilize the 10,000+ army in the North that all the generals above the military rank were wiped out. At this time, Jiang Yiqu panicked.

He has fought for half his life, and now he is not allowed to fight, what else can he do.

He was born as a commoner, and he is used to being prominent in front of others. Now if you want to beat him back to his original form, wouldn't that kill him?
Therefore, whether it was Yuan Shang's order or the autumn harvest festival, Jiang Yiqu always complained of illness. He dared not go to Yecheng, fearing that he would never come back after he went.

However, going on like this is not an option. Of course, Liyang's city defense is considered solid. If the 10,000 troops stick to it, if [-]+ people don't break their front teeth, they probably won't be able to bite a hole, but it is not a long-term solution after all.

At the time of the crisis, Zhang He wrote a letter to him, saying that Sikong and Cao Cao cherished his talent, agreed with him, and guaranteed him to be a general in the court and granted the title of Marquis of Liyang.

Others said that he might not believe it, but Zhang He said that he did not doubt a word.

Zhang Yun, one of the four court pillars in the past, has always spoken like a mountain, coupled with the love of the past, a hanging heart finally landed.

He originally wanted to lead an army of [-] across the river and go straight to Xuchang. If necessary, he could set fire to the northern frontier, but at this moment, a scout ran in.

"General, general, someone from Yecheng is here!"

"What are you panicking about?"

I was worried that they would run out of food and grass before, but now?Jiang Yiqu said that if he dared to come looking for something, he would ask the [-] brothers in the city if they would agree, "How many people are here, and who is the leader?"

"Only a few hundred people, no flags."

Jiang Yiqu sneered. That proved that he was not looking for trouble. It was probably Yuan Shang who had given some orders.

No, it's not Yuan Shang, it's Lu Bu, it's Lin Mo.

It doesn't matter. At this point in the matter, no matter what kind of order it is, it doesn't make much difference. Jiang Yiqu sat firmly in the handsome chair and patted the armrest. "When they enter the city, let them unload their weapons."

"Here!"

When he arrived at Liyang City, Yan Liang looked at this majestic pass and felt a lot in his heart.

Back then, Yuan Shao ordered him to bring [-] elite soldiers to Liyang to wait for an opportunity to attack Baima City.

At that time, he was still a general of Hebei Sitingzhu and the 70 army of the Northern Kingdom, and he did not believe that anyone in the world could beat his edge.

Unexpectedly, when he came back here, things were different, he met Dian Wei and Xu Chu, and also fought against Zhao Yun, his state of mind was no longer as hot as before.

Yan Liang, Wen and Chou rode horses and slowly approached the city gate. The city gate order on duty stepped forward and shouted: "Dismount, everyone must put down their weapons before entering the city."

At the same time, all the sergeants on the equestrian path at the Chengguan drew up their bows and aimed at them.

Obviously, if they didn't obey the order, the next thing they would greet them would be a rain of arrows pouring down.

The two didn't respond, they just looked at the Chengguan.

"I'll make you dismount and you will all be deaf."

Before he could finish speaking, the gatekeeper who came out to command and order clearly saw the appearance of the two of them, and immediately froze, "General Yanyan? And, is there General Wen?"

The two glanced at him, but they didn't know each other. Yan Liang asked coldly, "Do you still need to get off the horse?"

The city gate commander immediately ran to them, knelt down on one knee and bowed his hands, "My subordinate Chen Wang has met the general!"

When Wen Chou jumped off his horse and helped him up with one hand, the gatekeeper named Chen Wang was already crying, "Subordinate, I thought I would never see the general again in this life! Subordinate. Subordinate Now report to General Jiang!"

"No need."

Yan Liang stopped him directly, pointing his horsewhip forward, "Lead the way ahead, we are going to see Jiang Yiqu."

"Here!"

Chen Wang wiped away his tears and immediately shouted to the crossbowmen on the horse trail at the city gate: "What are you making nonsense of? Look clearly, it's General Yan Liang and General Wen Chou!"

The crossbowman on the horse path was startled, first looked at each other in dismay, and then subconsciously put down the crossbow in his hand.

Among them, not all of them have seen Yan Liangwen Chou, but no one has never heard of the names of these two brothers. In fact, many of them joined the army with the two brothers as their goals, and even respected them like gods.

After the captain on duty saw it clearly, he ran down the city gate in three steps at a time, "General, general! It's me, remember the last general, I served as a centurion under your command during the Jieqiao battle Long!"

Wen Chou tilted his head and looked at the man kneeling in front of him who was choking and crying. He recalled it and quickly helped him up, "I remember that you seemed to have been hit by two arrows at that time. Then I took you to the rear army and made you a marquis. I didn’t expect you to be a Chengdu captain now.”

"General, I'll lead you the horse, and I... I'll lead the horse for you." After seeing Wen Chou, the captain couldn't stop his tears from excitement.

When entering the city, Chen Wang shouted, "General Yan Liang is back, General Wen Chou is back!"

There were more than 800 guards on the horse-riding path at the gate, and a hundred guards at the gate kept raising their weapons and shouting in unison, "We must win! We must win! We must win!"

The two brothers entered the city swaggeringly with five hundred knives and axes, and headed towards the general's mansion.

Even when the sergeants patrolling the streets along the way saw them, some cried bitterly, some got carried away, and some shouted Yan Liangwenchou's name and shouted for victory.

This is Yan Liang and Wen Chou's compulsion. In the eyes of the people in the world, Lu Bu is of course invincible, and Zhao Yun is unstoppable, but in the hearts of the Northern Army, no one can compare to Yan Liang and Wen Chou.

Originally, the two brothers planned to enter the city in a low-key manner, and talked to Jiang Yiqu carefully, persuading him to hand over his military power honestly, and return to Yecheng with the two brothers.

I can't guarantee the others, at least with their face, Lu Bu and Lin Mo can't kill him.

Who would have thought that along the way, the guards at the city gate, the guards at the city gate, and the patrolling sergeants all spontaneously followed behind them.

Yan Liang also drove them away, but it was useless, he just wanted to follow them all the time.

When they arrived at the gate of the General's Mansion, the entire street was blocked. This posture looked no different from a mutiny. The two brothers saw it in their eyes, and they were angry and funny, but they were more relieved.

After leaving the Northland for so long, they have not forgotten themselves. This trip was not in vain.

Before the Central Plains War, Jiang Yiqu, who was Yan Liang's deputy general, was actually very excited to run out to greet them when he heard the news of their return.

It's just that when I ran out of the door, I ran into the two brothers who were walking towards me, "General, you are finally back, General!"

Yan Liang gouged him out and walked inside without saying a word.

Wen Chou patted him on the shoulder, "Come on."

After driving everyone else out, Jiang Yiqu didn't doubt that he was there, and continued to choke with excitement, "General, you will have a backbone when you come back to the Northern Kingdom, General, do you know that Lu Bu and Lin Mo have replaced all our brothers.

What's wrong with them? It's the heirs of the Yuan family who are fighting for power. What's wrong with them? Over the years, their positions have been earned by their illustrious military exploits.

Now it's all right, our brother finally has a bright future! "

"Idiot! Just because you also want to fight with Marquis Wen and Marquis Lanling, how many heads you have, you still want to get all the brothers in the city to be satisfied!"

Facing Yan Liang's jaw-dropping fury, Jiang Yiqu was a little confused.

It took him a while to realize that he was so happy to see them that he forgot that they had all surrendered to Lu Bu.

The good meeting in Pao Ze turned into a scene of a large-scale death. Jiang Yiqu twitched the corners of his mouth, and bravely bowed and said: "General, it's not that I want to fight against their son-in-law, but the end of Pao Ze in the past is still vivid in my memory. If I go to Ye City at this time, wouldn’t it be a moth to the flame?”

"You still know that you are a moth!" Yan Liang spitting stars in anger flew directly to Jiang Yiqu's face.

When he wanted to attack, he was stopped by Wen Chou.

"Yi Qu, our brothers did not come here specifically to train you, but to bring you back to Yecheng to punish Marquis Wen and Marquis Lanling."

Seeing Jiang Yiqu's eyes widen, Wen Chou added, "Don't worry, your life won't be in danger with us."

Jiang Yiqu's eyes flickered with horror, and he took a few steps back, going to Yecheng?Obviously he didn't want to, just now he was thinking about how to command the army to fight after going to Xuchang Zhonglang, now let him go to see Lu Bu and Lin Mo, even if he didn't die, he might not be able to stay in the barracks any longer.

"What? The 500 people we brought are too few? Otherwise, you go out and call the brothers in the city to attack us. I want to see if you really have the ability after Jiang Yiqu left me." Yan Liang's words were not pleasant, But every sentence pierced Jiang Yiqu's heart.

If it wasn't Yan Liang and Wen Chou who came today, even if Lu Bu and Zhao Yun were here, it would be useless. He has this confidence.

But who are these two brothers? They are people who don't need military symbols to mobilize the army in the northern country. Just say a word and everything will be answered.

Now, with Jiang Yiqu alone, how could he mobilize the [-] troops in the city?

Everything is fate, as long as there are a few more nights, you can go to Xuchang in a few days, but just met them, Jiang Yiqu sat limply, his eyes were a little dull.

"It's just a trip to Yecheng, you won't die, look at your potential, get up!" Facing the old myth, Jiang Yiqu waved his horsewhip, and Jiang Yiqu, who was sitting paralyzed on the ground, subconsciously raised his hands to wrap his head.

There is no way, Yan Liang Wen Chou's prestige in the Northern Army is actually no less than the Bingzhou Army's mentality when facing Lu Bu, and they will have an instinctive obedience.

I didn't want to go, but they came, but I couldn't help myself. After Jiang Yiqu got up in a panic, he lowered his head like a quail and dared not speak.

Wen Chou said a few words of consolation, and then went out to order the generals to perform their duties. After all, this is the gateway town of the Northern Kingdom. Lu Bu and Lin Mo probably sneered at the Northern Army after seeing this appearance.

There was no obstacle in the process of taking Jiang Yiqu away. Just as Jiang Yiqu thought in his heart, in the North Country, the words of the two ugly brothers Yan Liangwen were more effective than military orders. In fact, this was the reason why Lin Mo did not dare to let them come rashly.

In case they have any loyalty to Yuan Shang, no kidding, they can easily launch a mutiny.

However, with the deeds of the Anfeng War, and the presence of the old father-in-law and Zhao Yun, the two brothers should be able to figure it out.

Liu Biao's death made Cao Cao so happy that he didn't sleep all night.

After his death, Liu Cong came to power, and all the military affairs in Jingzhou, large and small, fell into the hands of Cai Mao alone. Liu Jingsheng who rode into Jingzhou alone was not easy to handle, and the reckless Cai Mao still knew the general situation.

Jingzhou can be found.

Cao Cao thought that Xun You's strategy should have a certain impact on Jingzhou's internal affairs, and when it caused turmoil, he might not be unable to profit from it.

But he didn't expect that this plan could actually kill Liu Biao, and he felt as if happiness came too suddenly.

Therefore, Guo Jia, Xun You and others were all summoned to the Sikong Mansion early in the morning to discuss how to take advantage of the chaos to take Jingzhou.

"Sikong, the son inherits his father's career, and I suggest that Jingzhou be herded to Liu Cong. Not only that, but also make Cai Mao the right general and the commander of the world's navy."

"To induce surrender?"

Cao Cao sat leaning on the handsome chair, twirling his short beard and looking at Xun You, and said solemnly: "Just like this, I'm afraid it's not enough to make Cai Hao willingly hand over Jingzhou."

"Grace and prestige come together. If there is kindness, of course there must be prestige."

Xun You twirled his gray beard, "Sikong can gather troops and horses first, and after Liu Biao's sacrifice is over, he will issue an imperial edict in the name of the emperor to attack Liu Bei. At that time, he will inevitably borrow from Jingzhou. If he Cai Mao refuses to agree, he will commit disobedience." , if you agree, then our people will naturally be able to enter the city openly."

"Good strategy!"

Cao Cao nodded in satisfaction, this move is really good, let the emperor issue an edict to canonize the two of them first, and then go south after three months, Cai Mao has no reason to refuse.

Xun You's target is clear and his strikes are precise. Jingzhou has changed masters. Cai Mao is still the right general and the commander of the navy. But if he disobeys orders, the situation will be different. In righteousness, he will become a rebel, and other aristocratic families will break with him one after another. of.

"The only thing I'm worried about is Youzhou. It's finally brought about Yuan Xi's rebellion against Lu. If we transfer the army away and Lu Bu takes the opportunity to attack, Yuan Xi is no match for Lin Mo at all."

In Cao Cao's plan, as long as Lu Bu dares to move, he can lead his troops northward, and at the same time let Xiahou Dun of Bingzhou attack from the flanks, so that the entire northern kingdom will fall into a three-sided battle.

"Lin Mo really has the means. He easily stabilized the northern family with one move, two peaches and three warriors. Now he is indeed capable of attacking Youzhou."

Guo Jia stood up and said with a soft smile, "But now, Lv Bu has agreed to the Cui family's marriage. As long as this is done, even if Lv Bu takes Youzhou, he will still be able to escape the path of self-destruction."

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, remained silent, let Lv Bu take Youzhou, and finally drew his salary from the bottom of the pot?

It's not impossible, as long as the Cui family does not make mistakes, Lu Bu and Lin Mo will definitely become hostile.

Of these two people, whoever loses the other is doomed to fail.

What's more, Jingzhou, as the belly of the world, its own strategic backyard, enough to raise hundreds of thousands of soldiers, is ultimately more important than Youzhou.

Especially after Lu Bu captured the two northern states, his overall strength was already superior to his own.

Cao Cao finally nodded, "Okay, let's follow the plan."
