Chapter 1892: The Commander of the Yanjing Offensive and Defensive Battle (3)
Chapter 1892: Yanjing Attack and Defense Battle (3): Seizing the Commander
Liu Che appointed Xue Gang as the general of chariots and cavalry, commanding the entire city's troops and horses to defend Yanjing City and resist the Qin army.
In addition, in order to save the consumption of grain and grass, Liu Che ordered the seizure of grain and grass throughout the city.
"From now on, Yanjing will implement a daily grain distribution system. No one is allowed to hide grain without permission. Hiding more than ten kilograms of grain will be punished as treason."
As soon as this order came out, not only the aristocratic families, but also the common people were in an uproar, but Liu Che still relied on his personal prestige to calm the common people down.
The rations in the hands of the people were not much. After handing it over, the state would be responsible for the rations, which would be more cost-effective, and the aristocratic families would suffer again.
They just took away the clan soldiers, and now they come to steal food.
Even if you are gathering wool, you can't just catch one sheep, and this sheep of the Aristocratic Family was almost stripped bare by Liu Che.
You Liu Che fought with Qin Hao, but you couldn't beat Qin Hao, and you bullied our family. What kind of skill is this?
Although the aristocratic family was still indignant about this, they had no choice but to let the mermaid be their prey.
Liu Che successfully recovered the entire city's food and grass, saving some food to feed the entire city for a year. His control over Yanjing City reached an unprecedented level.
Now that the family was said to be an aristocratic family, even the spies of the Qin army had to obtain food from the Han army. It was almost impossible to disintegrate Yanjing City from within.
First the clan soldiers, then the food and grass.
Liu Che raided all of the Youzhou family, and now the Youzhou family is so poor that only money is left.
Just when the Youzhou family thought that Liu Che wanted them to hand over their money, Liu Che did not do so.
Liu Che accepted the soldiers and food from the family to eliminate hidden dangers in the city and ensure that Yanjing City could be defended. If he robbed the family of money, it would be completely untenable morally.
Liu Che's reputation is now ruined. If he loses even the most basic morality, I am afraid that even the people in the city will alienate him, and then the gains will outweigh the losses.
Liu Che resorted to many tricks to protect Yanjing City, and Xue Rengui and Su Dingfang successfully joined forces.
After conquering Guangyang and the military capital, and killing two generals, Xianyu, Fu, Xianyu and Yin, Xue Rengui and Lu Bu's 40,000-strong army marched all the way east to the foot of Yanjing City, and finally joined forces with Su Dingfang's 30,000-strong army.
"Brother Su, you haven't completely conquered Yuyang yet, so you rushed into Guangyang. It's been so many days, why haven't you captured Yanjing yet?" Xue Rengui said sarcastically with a smile.
"Why don't you let Huo Guang and Xue Gang run away and let their 20,000 troops return to Yanjing? Otherwise, I would have defeated the city of Yanjing." Su Dingfang said angrily.
"you……"
Xue Rengui's expression suddenly changed, and he snorted coldly: "Humph, sophistry."
"That's what it is..."
The two talked and talked, and gradually turned into fighting each other, and later, there was even a tendency to fight.
Seeing this, Lu Bu and Sun Lingming looked at each other, but didn't know what to say. Don't these two have a good personal relationship? Why did they start to quarrel as soon as they met?
Su Dingfang and Xue Rengui have a good personal relationship, but the mutual hostility between the two people is actually just to distinguish priorities.
Logically speaking, it was Su Dingfang who attacked Yanjing City first, and Xue Rengui should obey Su Dingfang's command. However, Xue Rengui was also the commander-in-chief of the First Army, so naturally he was unwilling to succumb to Su Dingfang's command.
At the same time, Xue Rengui also felt that Su Dingfang couldn't wait to come to Yanjing to grab credit before he had completely captured Yuyang. This was too ugly.
Su Dingfang knew Xue Rengui's thoughts, so he used the excuse that Xue Rengui failed to retain and release Huo Guang, which resulted in the failure of his surprise attack on Yanjing. In this way, Xue Rengui was not qualified to compete with him for the leadership.
Of course, Xue Rengui cannot take the blame. Regardless of whether he lets Huo Guang come back or not, Su Dingfang cannot capture Yanjing City, because Su Dingfang has not attacked Yanjing City since he captured Guangyang.
If you don't attack the city, how can you break it? Are you waiting for Liu Che to open the city and surrender on his own?
Regarding Xue Rengui's words, Su Dingfang also had his own explanation, that is, he had his own plan, but due to Huo Guang's return, the plan was aborted.
When Xue Rengui heard this, he almost wanted to vomit blood.
Brother, it sounds like you are telling the truth, just for the position of a head coach, isn't that true?
Xue Rengui and Su Dingfang argued for an hour, but neither of them believed in the other. They both wanted to be the leader and neither wanted to be subordinate to the other.
Just when the two of them were staring at each other, Li Hongzhang came with Qin Hao's order.
"The King of Qin has ordered that after the two armies merge, Su Lie will be the leader and Xue Li will be the deputy..."
It turned out that Qin Hao had long expected that Xue Rengui would be dissatisfied with Su Dingfang after the two armies joined forces, so he asked Li Hongzhang to come to announce the decree in advance.
With Qin Hao's order, Su Dingfang could legitimately control Xue Rengui and Lu Bu's troops, and Yanjing's 70,000-strong army had a unified command.
Xue Rengui was not as good as Su Dingfang in terms of commanders, but Qin Hao chose Su Dingfang, not because he valued Su Dingfang and despised Xue Rengui, but to stimulate the country-destroying attribute of Su Dingfang's "brave" skill.
The effect of Su Dingfang's "Yonglie" is 3 to destroy a country. Every time a country is destroyed, the five dimensions will be permanently 1. It can be activated four times in total.
At present, Su Dingfang has activated his country-destroying attribute three times, wiping out the two small princes Wang Kuang and Zhang Chao, as well as Yuan Shao's Zhao State. He is still short of the last time to complete his merits, so of course Qin Hao wants to destroy the Northern Han Dynasty.
The opportunity was given to Su Dingfang.
After Su Dingfang was appointed, he felt relieved. Otherwise, he really didn't know how to deal with Xue Rengui. After all, Xue Rengui's merits and qualifications were not much inferior to his, and he was no match for him in a martial arts competition.
"Brother Xue, it seems that my lord still trusts me more."
Su Dingfang looked at Xue Rengui with a smile, as if he was getting an advantage and still being obedient.
"But you don't have to be discouraged. This time, after all, it was my brother who got to Yanjing City first. Next time if you get there first, my lord will make you the main general."
"Hmph, why are you so proud?"
Xue Rengui snorted in displeasure and said: "Brother Su, if you want me to be a brother, I will take you as my master. I can listen to you in everything, but you have to agree to one condition."
"tell me the story."
"I heard that Brother Su has two daughters, one is Baofeng and the other is Jinlian. They are gentle, virtuous, and as beautiful as flowers.
My son Dingshan is a talented young man with both civil and military skills, and he is not yet married. I wonder if Brother Su would be willing to marry his brother?"
"What? No."
Su Dingfang decisively refused. After all, Xue Dingshan was not a young hero, but a demon king.
Xue Dingshan and Yue Yun are two of the biggest dandies in Luoyang. With the support of their fathers and Qin Xuewu, they do all kinds of evil in Luoyang City. They do all kinds of things like sneaking around, and even they are not married yet. But Yue Fei and
Xue Rengui felt worried.
Su Dingfang naturally would not push his daughter into the brazier, so he decisively gathered Xue Rengui's marriage proposal.
Seeing Su Dingfang refuse so decisively, Xue Rengui felt a little embarrassed, but before he could refute, what Su Dingfang said next made him dumbfounded.
"By the way, Brother Xue, if you want to get married, you can marry your daughter to my son."
As he said that, Su Dingfang's eyes suddenly lit up, he grabbed Xue Rengui's hand and said: "Brother Xue, your golden lotus is about to get hairpins in two years, and my son Qingjie is also not married yet, so he is a perfect match for your golden lotus."
ah."
"You're thinking shit."
Xue Rengui said angrily. He originally wanted to propose a marriage to his hopeless son, but he didn't expect Su Dingfang to have the idea of his own daughter.
Xue Jinlian was Xue Rengui's sweetheart. She was favored by the whole family. If she wanted to marry, she would be marrying a leader among the younger generation. Su Dingfang's son Su Qingjie was not in Xue Rengui's consideration at all.
It's not that Su Dingfang's son Su Qingjie is not outstanding, but Xue Rengui's vision for choosing a son-in-law is too high. Compared to Yue Yun and Xue Dingshan, isn't Su Qingjie too ordinary?
"Hey, Brother Xue, don't leave. Qingjie can't do it. Then you can see if Bao Tong can succeed. If you have something to discuss, then..."
Lu Bu and Sun Lingming were completely stunned when they saw this.
The two of them were competing for the leadership position. They were grinning just now and looked like they were about to start a fight. How come they were kissing the junior in the blink of an eye?
This change must have been too big, so big that even Lu Bu and Sun Lingming didn't even turn around.
"General Lu, do you have a daughter?" Sun Lingming asked for no reason.
When Lu Bu heard this, his eyes towards Sun Lingming instantly became dangerous.
"Boy, don't have any ideas about my Lingqi, you are not worthy."
After saying this, Lu Bu turned around and left angrily. He was another one who wanted to take advantage of his daughter, and her key appearance still looked like this.
To be honest, Lu Bu admires Sun Lingming very much, but he is definitely not willing to be his son-in-law. After all, few women will like Sun Lingming's dignity. He would rather marry his daughter to Qin Hao than Sun Lingming.
Looking at Lu Bu's leaving figure, the corners of Sun Lingming's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
He heard that the sons of Xue and Su were not yet married, and thought that if Lu Bu had a daughter, he would be able to marry one of the two families. However, he did not expect that Lu Bu misunderstood that he was interested in his daughter.
It was an injustice in Sun Lingming's heart. He already had Zixia, and he wouldn't change it even if he gave it to a fairy. How could he still provoke other women?
In Sun Lingming's heart, except for Emperor Ming and Zixia who didn't dislike his appearance, all other women were pink skeletons. No matter how beautiful they were, he would not be tempted by them.
