Although Liu Ye started his army from Qingzhou, his foundation was in Yongliang. Most of his soldiers were Liangzhou iron cavalry. Ma Chao, pound, Ma Teng and other senior generals were also from Liangzhou. Qu Yi was also from Liangzhou. If he wanted to join Liu Ye's tent, would he not be put into important position?
"The reason why Yuan Gong used generals was not to value generals, but to use them for generals." "If the general did not sacrifice his life and death to defeat Baima Yicong in the battle of Jieqiao, how could Yuan Gong use a general?"
The battle of Jieqiao made Qu Yi famous in the first World War, but it was actually very dangerous. Bai Mayi was defeated. Gongsun Zan was so angry that he ordered the whole army to attack. First, he killed and wounded half of the dead, then he was maimed on the spot, and then gradually recovered.
"The general is originally from Liangzhou. If we change our family, will we not be put into important positions?"
Qu Yi listened to the advice of military Sima, but shook his head: "people should be loyal to the Lord, change the court, some disdain to do it."
Army Sima was silent: "if so, his subordinates will retire."
"Well, go out. I'm alone."
After Qu Yi waved his hand, a flash of light flashed in his eyes.
"General, if you don't want to be a villain, I'll do it for you."
...
"General Gao! General Gao There was a call from the woods ahead.
"Is it Cao Xing?" He cried out.
"It's me, General Gao. How are you doing?"
Gao Shun led more than 500 soldiers in the trapped camp and fought and retreated. They finally withdrew from Huguan. Hearing Cao Xing's cry, he immediately moved forward. See in front of the woods jump out of dozens of people, Cao sex regardless of the body injury, excited rushed to Gao Shun in front.
"General Gao, it's very kind of you to be OK." Cao Xing said happily.
Gao Shun is a frown: "one of the officers and men under his command died and injured more than a hundred, this time lost Huguan, nothing to be happy about."
Cao Xing was silent and comforted: "General Gao, there is no immortal in the war. Besides, it is not the general's fault to lose Huguan this time. It was Hao Meng who was picky. We were caught off guard and lost the Huguan pass. The general doesn't have to blame himself like this. "
"One is still the chief General of Huguan, and Hao Meng didn't detect it in time when he colluded with the enemy. This is his fault." Gao Shun did not hesitate to take the blame on himself.
Cao Xing sighed and then said, "General Gao, the Huguan pass has been lost. What should I do next?"
Gao Shun pondered for a while and then said slowly, "Huguan is the southeast gateway of Bingzhou. Now Huguan is lost. Yuan Jun can be described as flat in Bingzhou. Shangdang county is probably unable to survive."
The Han Dynasty Divided States and counties on the basis of population. The land of Bingzhou was poor and the climate was bitter and cold, so the population was sparse. Therefore, the territory of Bingzhou was much larger than that of Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Jizhou. Shangdang county was the easternmost County of Bingzhou.
Once Huguan is won, it means that the whole Shangdang county is exposed to the enemy, which is basically irreparable.
Gao Shun pondered for a while and said to Cao: "the north of Shangdang county is Taiyuan county. Let's lead the army northward, abandon the city and gather the forces of several counties in Nie County, which is the intersection of the two counties, to prevent yuan army from attacking Taiyuan county."
Cao Xing stepped forward and said: "General Gao, I will take charge of defending Nie county. Cao Xing is willing to guarantee his life."
Gao Shun shook his head and said, "Nie county is very important, this will personally lead the troops to defend. You will not be idle. You will lead a few of your trusted followers to Jinyang day and night at the fastest speed to report the loss of Huguan to the Lord. Do you understand? "
Cao Xing nodded: "in this case, so let's go. General Gao can rest assured that I will come back soon."
After that, Cao Xing summoned seven or eight cronies from the army and rode away. The more than 2000 Bingzhou army he led out from Huguan was attributed to Gao Shun.
"The whole army is marching northward, targeting Lu County!"
Gao Shun, with more than 2000 Bingzhou troops and more than 500 trapped camps, totalling less than 3000 troops and horses, marched at night that night and arrived in Lu county at dawn the next day. The county magistrate quickly opened the door to meet him, but Gao Shun didn't talk nonsense to him. After taking over the garrison of Lu County, he immediately ordered the magistrate of Lu county to bury the grain and grass in the warehouse and then retreat.
Gaoshun marched northward, passing through Xiangyuan, Qinxian and other cities from Lu County, respectively. By the time of Nei County, more than 4000 people had been collected. However, after arriving in Nei County, gaoshun did not continue to retreat. Instead, he launched the banner of "high general", and mobilized the civilians in the city to repair the city wall and make rolling wood and stone guarding equipment, ready to stick here.
After Qu Yi captured Huguan, Yan Liang sent 5000 troops to attack the southern counties of Shangdang County, and he personally led 15000 troops to the north.
Because Gao Shun withdrew the garrison in advance and told the people in the city in advance, Yan Liang was bloodless and easily went down several cities until he met the resistance under the county seat of Nie.
At this time, Cao Xing is a day and night journey to Jinyang, the capital of Bingzhou.
"It's time to close the city gate."Just after the order of Jinyang city was issued, he saw that the two city gates were about to close. Suddenly, smoke and dust were rampant on the road, and seven or eight riders were dressed and galloping on the road.
The first knight was Cao Xing, who yelled: "I am Cao Xing, general of Huguan. I have important information to report to the Lord!"
Cheng Shou is Song Xian. Seeing Cao Xing, he quickly raised his hand and said, "suspend the closing of the gate."
The two gates stopped with a squeak, and seven or eight rode into Jinyang city together.
Fortunately, it was late at this time, and there were no pedestrians on the street because of the curfew ban. Therefore, Cao Xing and his party ran freely on the street without slowing down. They quickly rushed out of the governor's office.
"Wenhou, I want to see him!"
"Who wants to see me?"
It happened that Lu Bu was not sleeping well. He came out immediately when he heard the voice, but he could not help frowning.
"Cao Xing? You stayed well in Huguan. Why did you come here? "
"Wen Hou!" Cao Xing gasped and said, "Hao Meng turned to the enemy on his back. He acted both inside and outside. He lost Huguan!"
"What?" Lu Bu frowned and stepped forward, lifting Cao Xing with one hand. He is nine feet tall and holds Cao Xing in his hand as if he were carrying a child.
"Hao Meng rebelled? How did you lose it? " Lu Bu said angrily.
Cao Xing talked about how Hao Meng colluded with Yuan Jun, raised fire as a name, Gao Shun led the army to fight against the rebellion, and Qu Yi led the army into the city.
"General Gao ordered a horse to report this matter to Wen Hou. Now general Gao is leading troops to stay in Nei County, waiting for Wen hou to rescue him." Cao Xing reports.
"Hum, beat the drum and call on the soldiers!" "Let Yuan Shao have a taste of it
