Chapter 325 Zhao shaved head in command of the West Expedition

After talking about the stalemate battles on the Bingzhou East and South Fronts, let’s take a look at the situation of the Western Front where soldiers gather.

Before the war began, Zhao Xing threw Huguan and Jiguan to Zhao Yun and Xu Huang respectively, and then integrated the rest of his troops and took charge of the troops to Xihe County, setting up the base camp in Zhongyang County, fifty miles south of Shicheng.

Zhongyang County is located 80 miles east of the Yellow River, and 70 miles south is a natural barrier to the Tianshan Mountains. It is right at the center of gravity of the isosceles triangle formed by Shangjun, Xihe and Shangdang. It is really suitable to set the front line command center against Lishi, with Tongtian Mountain in front, Yellow River on the left, and Fen River on the right.

In addition to the 12,000 people stationed in Huguan, Jiguan, and 20,000 mobile troops commanded by Zhang Liao and Guo Jia. The only available troops in Zhao Xing's hands are currently 68,000. Specifically, they are: 4,000 Tiger Army, 14,000 Pioneer Army, 10,000 Flying Tiger Army, 10,000 Canglang Army, 10,000 Xiongwu Army, and 10,000 Dingyuan Army. The task of stationing the four northern counties is currently completely handed over to the Huangxuan tribe and the Southern Xiongnu tribe.

After repeated sand table deduction, the Zhenbei Legion must temporarily abandon Gao Nu, Dingyang, Diaoyin, Qiyuan and other places in the southern part of Shangjun, retreat and gather troops in the southern part of Fushi, which is convenient for cavalry operations, and clench his fists on the southern bank of the Sheyan River, wait for the opportunity to fight Huangfu Song, so that he has a chance to win. It is not easy to give up the large area in the southern part of Shangjun.

After seven years of governance and management by the military farming commander and prefect Zaozhi, Shangjun has become no longer the same as before. Especially the southern region with relatively fertile land, it has become another grain-producing area in Bingzhou after Shangdang. It not only produces wheat, soybeans, sorghum and millet, but also has a very developed livestock breeding industry. A large number of refugees who were moved from Jizhou by Zhao Xing from Jizhou, as well as the rioters who once participated in the Yellow Turban Army, were all resettled in Shangjun. The original "old residents" of Shangjun, the Qiang and Hu of Hexi were collectively moved to the Hetao area by Zhao Xing.

When the Tao City was destroyed that day, Zhao Xing cruelly killed two thousand people with thunder. The remaining nearly 50,000 Yellow Turban rioters were cut by Zhao Xing on the upper side of his right ear (see Chapter 238), and sent to Shangjun in the name of the guilty people. Later, Nanpi City and Leping City occupied by Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao brothers were successively broken, and the seventy-eighty-thousand Yellow Turban rioters in the city also enjoyed similar treatments and were sent to Shangjun one after another.

These people were originally ruthless characters who dared to kill officials and rebel. At that time, they were frightened by the reputation of General Zhenbei and were afraid of being sent to heaven by Zhao Xing, so they lived in Shangjun peacefully. Later, Zhao Xing appointed Zao Zhi as the prefect of Shangjun and vigorously promoted the agricultural production increase plan, so that the people gradually became rich and gradually became rich.

Today, Shangjun has become a county ruled by the Shangdang, just like Shangdang. As long as Zhao Xing raises his arms and shouts here, the "spun ear soldiers" with a scar on his right ear will definitely rebel with Zhao Xing.

However, under such a strong folk custom, it is probably difficult to make the people give up their crops that are about to mature and leave their homes and go to the hinterland of Bingzhou.

In order to mobilize these people to temporarily move to Xihe County east of the Yellow River, "Zhao Shaba" in Bingzhou, which had not come out for a long time, had to play the role of a villain again and go to the south of Shangjun to mobilize the masses.

Flags fluttered and war horses neighed. Under the escort of the Flying Tiger Army and the Canglang Army's 20,000 cavalry, Zhao Xing crossed the Yellow River. After patrolling the Shangjun Prefecture, he flew and domineeringly headed south. After passing Gaonu and Diaoyin, he finally arrived at the Qiyuan next to Zuo Fengyi. Wherever Zhao Xing passed, the people greeted each other, shouted long live, and directly ignored the laws and regulations of the Han Dynasty.

Zhao Xing inspected the southern part of Shangjun so high-profile, not only to stabilize the people's hearts, but also to go to the front line in person to demonstrate to the West Route Alliance. Zhao Xing's meaning is very clear. Aren't you coming to fight me? I'm not afraid. Now I'm wandering under your noses, and I have the ability to catch me!

Maybe he couldn't stand Zhao Xing being too arrogant, or maybe Zhao Xing was backfiring. This time, after Huangfu Song received the news that Zhao Xing went to Qiyuan, he was not polite to him at all. He immediately set off the camp and rushed to Zhao Xing!

Alas, is it true that this matter is to be relied on 20,000 cavalry to fight with 150,000 coalition forces on the West Road? Of course, the result is not that simple. After receiving information from Shadow about the rise of the West Road coalition forces, Zhao Xing immediately began to mobilize the local people to move north.

Every time Zhao Xing passed by, he would shout to the local "huoer soldiers": "Did you treat me badly when I moved to Shangjun that day? Now the imperial army is coming to retaliate. I will fight with him in the Fushi area. If you don't deliberately support the enemy, you will follow me north and return here after you will defeat the court's hawks in the future!"

General Zhenbei said this clearly and the truth was very thorough. At that time, it was the people who saved everyone's lives and gave everyone land, allowing everyone to live a good life. Now the hawks and dogs in the court are coming to take revenge. Whoever doesn't follow General Zhenbei is clearly trying to help the enemy! The "huoer soldiers" loyal to Zhao Xing immediately mobilized and helped the people move around, and took away all the food, livestock, and property besides the house.

In order to ensure the safety of the people who moved inward, Zhao Xing led 20,000 cavalry to cut off the rear and gradually got closer and closer to the vanguard troops pursued by Huangfu Song. By the time he reached Gao Nu, the two armies were less than twenty miles apart.

In order to give the Western Alliance a warning, Zhao Xing ordered 20,000 cavalry to stop. He wanted to attack Dong Zhuo's front outside Gaonu City, who dared to pursue him all the way.

The people who led the troops to pursue Zhao Xing were Guo Si and Li Jue, under the command of Dong Zhuo, the general of Zhenxi. They each led 20,000 cavalry. They thought they were strong and strong. As long as they caught Zhao Xing, they would be a great achievement. They were familiar with it. The faster they ran, the faster they died.

"Brother, Fengxian, Guo Si and Li Jue are left to you. This battle is just to establish authority. After scaring away the pursuers, don't be in love with the war. Go north and follow me immediately." Zhao Xing did not talk to Guan Yu and Lu Bu. He briefly explained a few words, and then led his personal guards to continue mobilizing the people to move north, leaving the Flying Tiger Army and Canglang Army waiting for Guo Si and Li Jue in Gaonu.

Seeing Zhao Xing's figure gradually fading away, Lu Bu turned his head with some enthusiasm and asked Guan Yu: "Lao Guan, how long has it been since you started chopping people?"

"Since Guan Ping and your daughter finished having sex in front of the teenage class, I went north to Lishi. It has been seven years since I have not fought with anyone." Guan Yu stroked the three-inch beard left on his jaw and answered Lu Bu suddenly.

"By the way, when you mention Guan Ping, I remember something. Guan Ping is now sixteen years old. When will he marry my daughter? It is not a solution to always make them like this. Should we, fathers, be more concerned?" The battle is imminent, and Lu Bu actually had the leisure to get along with Guan Yu.

Seeing that what Lu Bu said made sense, the two children are now at the age of getting married and are always fucked together, and some rumors will inevitably come out. For Lu Bu, who is in high position as the commander of the army, it is not glorious and might as well get married early. So he said, "Okay, as Feng Xiao said, after repelling the imperial coalition, he will prepare for the wedding for the two."

"Okay, let's cut off two dog heads from Li Jue and Guo Si and give gifts to the children!" Lu Bu said angrily, as if Li Jue and Guo Si were lambs to be slaughtered, and giving two heads to be gifts was something Lu Bu could think of.
