Chapter 172 No choice
"When will the general want us to raise an army?"
"Three days later!"
"So fast?" Huan Jie and Zhang Xian were both surprised.
Although Huan Jie has been planning with Zhang Xian to join forces with the four counties of Jingnan to stab Liu Biao, the two of them are actually not clear about the changes in the world's general trend, and they do not know that a decisive battle is about to take place.
"Actually, I wanted to ask Zhang Envoy to raise an army tomorrow at the beginning, but the general was worried that something would happen suddenly. Zhang Envoy was not ready yet and had a hasty risen, so he would be in a difficult situation, so he was lenient for a while."
"The general is so anxious, but what big thing is going to happen?"
"I don't care about it. Jingzhou will send troops to Wuguan tomorrow, and Xiahou Yuan from Luoyang will send troops to Hongnong. The decisive battle between the princes of the Central Plains and the court will officially begin tomorrow."
Hiss ~
Huan Jie and the others took a breath, and immediately understood the urgency of the situation, and even felt a little grateful to Ma Qiang.
At such an important time, I would still be considerate of my subordinates. It seems that this unmasked general is a good official.
"Since the situation is so urgent, please rest assured, I will immediately send a message to the three counties and raise an army in three days!
By then, our troops in Jingnan will be divided into two groups to attack Jiangxia and Nanjun respectively. Even if we cannot quell the rebellion for the court, we can still hold up Liu Biao and make him dare not peek north!"
"I wonder how many soldiers and horses of the two groups are? Who is the general?"
"All the way, my General Xing Daorong of Jingnan was the main general, and he led 10,000 troops from Wuling and Lingling to attack Nanjun.
All the way, our Changsha General Yang Ling was the main general, and led 10,000 troops from Changsha and Guiyang to attack Jiangxia.
Our lord and the other three counties stayed in each county and dispatched food and supplies. What did the Taoist priest think?"
Zixu shook his head and said, "I don't know the soldiers, I just know it and pass on the deployment of the gentleman to Hebei so that the general can plan."
Huan Jie nodded to express his understanding and sighed, "It's a pity that my Jingnan and Hebei are too far apart. I'm afraid that when the general gets the news about me, Jingnan, the situation will change again."
"Mr. Huan doesn't need to worry about this. I wonder if Mr. Huan has heard of the radio?"
"Is it true that people speculate that there is a thousand miles of orders in Hebei?"
Zixu smiled but said nothing.
——The next day
When the sun just rose from the east, Xu, Yan, Yu, Jing and other states immediately posted notices announcing a joint attack on Ma Qiang, Hebei.
Countless fast horses galloped on the Central Plains, announcing the news that the world was attracted by others.
Countless powerful and powerful gentry congratulated each other happily, hoping that the princes of the Central Plains will be able to successfully fight the thief this time.
——Lumen Academy
One person held a silk book in his hand, and waved it while shouting, "Come out! Come out! Something big has happened! There is big news! Cao Yanzhou, Liu Xuzhou, Liu Jingzhou, Liu Yizhou, Zhu Jiaozhou and General Sun all united to attack Ma Qiang in the north and save the emperor.
Look, this is the manifesto I copied, and I also worshipped Xu Yuanzhi as the Allied Military Advisor. Our Lumen Academy has also made a name for itself in the world!"
"What? Really?"
"Hurry, show us!"
"Xu, Yan, Jing, Yu, Yi, Yang, Jiao, seven states, all the princes in the world have united. It seems that Ma Ziyu is in trouble this time!"
"I deserve it. Mr. Yang and Mr. Zhang are loyal and kind-hearted for generations, and he can't tolerate them. Naturally, everyone will be punished by such a traitor!"
"Hey, if you can conquer Hebei this time, Xu Yuanzhi's contributions will not be as good as Zhang Liang in the past... We underestimated him that day."
Many students came out from all over the place and were watching the copied manifesto. Most of these people were children of the gentry. With the deliberate guidance of Sima Hui, Pang Degong and others, most of them had prejudice against Hebei.
Pang Tong looked around and found that Zhuge Liang was not seen around, so he quickly ran to the room where Zhuge Liang's brothers lived, slammed the door and shouted, "Sleepy bug! Get up quickly!! There is big news!"
Bang!
The door suddenly opened, and Zhuge Liang said angrily, "Clown Chicken, how many times have I said, "If you say I am a sleepy bug again, don't think about entering my door!"
"Oh, what's the point~"
These days, Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang and others have become good friends and speak more casually.
"It's really big news. Seven states except Liangzhou have joined forces to start a war with Hebei. I'm afraid that the troops that were raiding against Hebei have been dispatched now. Ma Ziyu is going to have a headache this time!"
"Um?"
Zhuge Liang quickly walked into the house and took out the radio.
"It was our proclamation, not Hebei, sleepy bug, have you not woken up yet?"
"Kong Ming, turn on the radio and hear if there is any emergency news!"
At this time, two more people rushed in outside, but Lu Ji and Lu Yi were urging him loudly, but saw Zhuge Liang debugging the radio.
Pang Tong frowned and looked at the few people, asking in disbelief, "Do you all think Hebei has already obtained... No, have you known this news long ago?"
Zhuge Liang turned the sound of the radio and said, "Since the general will plunder Xu Yuanzhi, he must have heard and heard in the Central Plains states.
Although the matter of the Peishui Alliance is secret, Hebei is trying to inquire, how could he not know?
I'm afraid that when the envoy Cao and his men were dispatching their troops, the general was preparing for the war... This battle is not a surprise attack, but a battle in formation!"
The radio did have news, but it was news about the imperial examination, as if the world was still as calm as water.
Pang Tong and others listened for an hour, and even finished the new chapter of "The Religion of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty" and still did not hear the urgent news they wanted to hear.
Pang Tong's expression gradually became ugly.
"Sleepy bug, either you're thinking too much, or... this battle is probably a trap."
Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and said, "I hope I think too much... But when you look at the radio station in front of you, do you think I think too much?"
"What should I do? I immediately told my uncle to persuade him to stop the march?" Pang Tong asked.
"It's useless, this is an open conspiracy." Lu Yi shook his head and said, "If the princes in various places fail this Northern Expedition, then it will only be a matter of time before the world is restored by the general.
This was the only opportunity for the princes of the Central Plains. Even if they guessed in their hearts that this was a trap set by the general for them, they could only jump.
They...have no choice..."
"Sleepy bug, then we are waiting for the result?" Pang Tong looked at his hand unwillingly. As a great clan in Xiangyang, the result of this war will inevitably affect the future of Pang's. As a member of Pang's, he could only hand over everything to others at this time. The feeling of powerlessness in the face of the historical trend is difficult for others to understand.
"Liu Jingsheng won't listen to us, wait... Maybe this battle will end sooner than all of us imagined." Zhuge Liang shook his head helplessly. He hoped that there would be a Ming Gong who could listen to his advice. Unfortunately, where is such a Ming Gong?
