Chapter 159: A Letter That Changed History
Han Fu was still in a dilemma, but Wang Li had already begun to scribble graffiti and splash ink, stretching his brush to the rich Jizhou Plain.
At the beginning of July, the ears of rice have been hung heavily on the rice stalks, and the entire Henan Plain is already a scene of a bumper harvest.
Standing on the ridge of the field, looking at the busy figures in the field, Wang Li was satisfied, gently closed his eyes and sniffed the smell of the harvest, before he reopened his eyes and asked softly, "Our letter has been delivered, right?" β
"Yes!" Yan Zhong nodded, "Zhao Fu has already set off for a day and two nights, and the time should be almost up!" β
"Han Wenjie has always been weak and cowardly, now Gongsun Chan and Ju Yibing are coming to the city, and Yuan Benchu is stationed in Dongguang, if the general ignores it, I believe that Han Wenjie will inevitably return to his hometown, and Yuan Benchu will inevitably be able to enter Jizhou without blood."
Tearing off a weed and chewing it in his mouth a few times, suddenly, the bitter taste filled Wang Li's mouth, "General Ben got up Wei County and Qinghe, and most of the soldiers under his command are also from Jizhou, and now just because of a letter from General Ben, their hometown will be invaded by war again, and General Ben is ashamed." β
Yan Zhong shook his head and said: "The country is falling, the Han family is weak, and the princes of the world are sharpening their knives and Huo Huo has many wrongdoings. Yuan's family is a family of four generations and three dukes, there are many protΓ©gΓ©s, Yuan Benchu, Yuan Highway brothers and Youzhou Gongsun Zan are all heroes for a while, how can they live under people for a long time?
Even if there is no Hangeul Festival today, won't there be Gongsun Bokyu on another day? How can this be blamed on the lord alone? β
Wang Li exhaled lightly, but there was a trace of sadness on his face: "But the people of Jizhou were dragged into the war by General Ben after all!" β
"Lord, you are kind-hearted and concerned about Li Shu, and I am deeply grateful. But as Mr. Bo Jing said, if Yuan Benchu had no intention of hegemony, how could Jizhou fall into a war situation? We live in a corner of Henan, Chang'an has not been down, and the national thieves have not been eliminated, how can we let Yuan Shao and others sit big! β
After a pause, Xun turned his head, his face was only categorical, and there was no trace of hesitation: "The top priority at the moment should be to consolidate Luoyang, and then point to Guanzhong, quickly take down Dong Thief to rescue King Chen Liujun, and then use Luoyang as the foundation to calm the world."
As for the elder brother or others, please don't take it to heart, each has his own government, and each is his own master! β
Yan Zhong nodded and said, "Yes, we have to compete with Yuan Benchu for time!" If our army can't recover the entire Sizhou and take Chang'an in time before Yuan Benchu unifies Jizhou, Yuan Benchu will inevitably win Longwangshu and raise troops to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and we will be in danger! β
"Bo Jing, Wen Ruo, don't worry! To achieve our goal, it will inevitably go through nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties, and now it is only one difficulty, how can General Ben be so vulnerable? Wang Li rubbed his face, raised his head, and his eyes were already determined, "By the way, Wen Ruo, have you found the Magi I asked you to look for before?" β
Xun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "With the trust of the lord, then Yanzhou Cheng Yu, Huainan Liu Ye, Yingchuan Zhong Xuan and Nashan Yang Manzhong have all gone to Hedong Mengde." Now only the nephew Gongda, Guo Fengxiao and Mao Mao Xiaoxian are coming day and night! β
"It is up to man to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. Meng De's hometown Yanzhou Chen Liu, Cheng Zhongde, Zhong Yuanchang and others are afraid that they have heard of Meng De's virtuous name, and we want to grab food from his mouth, but it is not easy. What's more, if you can get the master, the ghost and Mr. Mao are like-minded, this general can be regarded as a help from heaven, how can he be greedy enough! β
Wang Li patted Xun's shoulder,
Then he said: "What is the situation in Hanoi now? I guess it's all right! β
Xun nodded and smiled: "That's right, Meng De also followed the example of the lord in Hanoi to issue the Juntian Decree and the Rent Yong Modulation, and with the help of Zhongde and others, Hanoi is now thriving and more stable." β
"This is very good, I sent a letter to inform Meng De that after the rice harvest in July, we will march westward together to eradicate the Dong thief forces in one fell swoop and conquer Chang'an!"
"No!"
β¦β¦
Han Fu didn't know that Wang Li had already helped him solve a big problem, and he was still sitting in the lobby and tangled.
Jizhou engaged in Zhao Fu and Cheng Jian have already returned to Jizhou with troops, the two of them are afraid that the lord will not be able to withstand the pressure of the Quartet, all the way to the wind and rain, from Heyang through Mengjin to Xindu It only took a day and two nights.
They were very worried that the lord had surrendered to Yuan Shao, but when they entered the county seat of Xindu and saw that the soldiers on the city wall were still holding their breath and looking like a big battle was coming, their hearts had already relaxed.
If the lord had surrendered to Yuan Shao, how could the soldiers be so heavily guarded? They are no longer in a hurry, they believe that with their own ability, they will be able to dispel the idea of the lord giving up Jizhou after all, not to mention, they still have a letter in their hands.
A letter from Luoyang!
Walking through the streets and alleys of Xindu, looking at the majestic state gate in front of them, the two took a deep breath and pushed the door in.
"Engaged in Zhao Fu (Cheng Lian) to meet the lord!" The two of them pushed the golden mountain and poured the jade pillar to bow to Han Fu, got up and said, "Lord Qiqi, all the elite soldiers led by us have withdrawn from Heyang, and have been taught to be deployed in the Wuyi and Guangchuan areas in the hands of lieutenant generals and colonels, and we are here to pay the order!" β
"You two have already begun to defend Wuyi and Guangchuan?" Han Fu was stunned for a moment, and Huo Di straightened up from his chair.
"Exactly!"
Han Fu looked at the two of them dumbfounded: "But, do you know that Yuan Benchu has already sent troops to Dongguang, ready to go south to Guanjin at any time to connect with the traitor Ju Yi." I Jizhou has neither brave generals and elite soldiers, nor is there any danger to pass, if Yuan Benchu and that Gongsun Zhan, Liu Xuande and others wave troops in Jizhou at the same time, how can we resist? β
"Hehe, please don't worry!" Zhao Fu gave a salute and said, "Yuan Shao's army has no fighting food, and the morale is sluggish. Although there are new attachments of Zhang Yang, Yu Fuluo and others, they are not willing to be used by Shao, and they are not enough enemies. We have now ordered people to deploy defenses in the area of Wuyi and Guangchuan, as long as we hold the defense line, it will inevitably collapse in ten days, and the lord can open and close his sitting! β
Cheng Jian also said: "Although Yuan Benchu is the fourth and third dukes, but in my Jizhou, it is just a lone army from outside, and the grain and grass are all dependent on our snort, just like a baby placed in the palm of the lord's palm. β
"That's right!" Geng Wu snorted at Xin Ping and stepped forward, "My lord, what Mr. Wen Ruo said is just Yuan Shao's anti-guest strategy, how can we surrender without a fight because of Yuan Shao's words, and even more so with the state affairs committee?" This is to lure the tiger into the flock!
What's more, if we surrender to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao may be able to return to the township party, and the official can also reach the head of a county or even the head of a county. But if the lord returns to Yuan Shao, where does the lord think Shao will be placed? β
Han Fu was stunned, yes, if he surrendered to Yuan Shao, where would Yuan Shao put himself? In the final analysis, I can only look up
Humility to Jizhou's merit and Yuan Shao's magnanimity.
However, there are no two days in the sky, there are no two monarchs in the country, and Yuan Shao must not be willing to talk about the old master from my Jizhou past command! At that time, he will have neither the strength to fight, nor half of the army, nor will he be a salted fish on the chopping block, how can he turn over!
How can a person who can be a state assassin be a stupid person!
In an instant, a few thoughts flashed in Han Fu's mind, and as soon as his eyes condensed, he heard Xun beside him get up and say: "Han Gong's Geng Wu, Zhao Fu and others are all loyal and righteous people, and Chen admires them very much, but Chen still thinks that you are just mantis arms as a car. β
"Xun Youruo, you have to be presumptuous!" Zhao Fu pressed the handle of the knife and shouted angrily, "Don't you be afraid that Zhao's long knife is not good?" β
Xun Chen smiled, ignored the fierce light in the eyes of Zhao Fu and others, and continued: "It was mentioned in "Yan Zi Chunqiu": Those who know the times are handsome, and those who change are heroes.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou under the command of Yuan Gong shocked Hebei, Liu Xuande under Guan Yu and Zhang Fei did not dare to be a man, Gongsun Zhan's Tian Yu and Yan Gang were outstanding in martial arts, and Ju Yi first went to the camp to die but not live.
Han Gong, Chen just wants to ask, when a strong enemy comes to attack, do you want the loyalty of the monarchs to be the sword envoy? β
"Youruo, you!"
Han Fu had just mustered up the courage and was broken by Xun Chen in an instant, feeling as if he had been stripped of his clothes by Xun Chen in the ice and snow, and his heart fell into the ice cave.
"Humph! Zhang Fei is only afraid that he is still in Luoyang now! Zhao had long heard that Mr. Youruo's mouth was like a knife and his words were like a sword, and it was true that he saw this today. It's a pity that you have a good plan, and I have a wall ladder. Today is destined to disappoint Mr. Yuruka. β
Zhao Fu put down his hand from the hilt of the knife and sneered, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Han Fu, "Lord Qi, when Fu and Brother Cheng crossed through Mengjin yesterday, the new general Wang Deyu sent someone to give the lord a letter!" β
Wang Deyu's letters? Wang Deyu sent a letter at this time, I'm afraid he came to stop Yuan Gong, right? Maybe there's also the handwriting of my good brother Wang Zuozhicai!
Hey, how can this anti-guest-oriented plan be hidden from Wang Deyu and Wen Ruo! This time, Yuan Gong wants to win without a fight, and it is estimated that he will be in vain!
Xun Chen was slightly stunned, and a trace of doubt and loss flashed in his eyes.
Han Fu had already taken the letter in a hurry, and at a glance he said: "Shaoben IV and the Third Duke, when the nobles of the dynasty, raise troops for no reason, and cause trouble to the family and country." Thou art a minister of the state, and the people of the state should pay for the rebellion and surrender, how can thou shalt ignore the laws of the court because of selfishness, and use the state, county, and others to ignore the laws of the court? To Ruo Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei..."
In fact, to put it bluntly, the letter only said three things:
First, Jizhou is the territory of the Han Dynasty, and it is not allowed to be privately granted, otherwise the heavenly soldiers will come, and the chickens and dogs will not stay;
Second, Gongsun Zhan of Youzhou has sent an angel to Jizhou to coordinate with Liu Yu to solve the dispute on the northeast border of Jizhou for you;
Third, you old boy don't have to worry about a fire in the backyard, once Yuan Shao has a dispute with you, Liu Bei will be ordered to help, and the court is also your strong backing.
The words were sonorous and powerful, and there was no rounding around the bush between the words, direct and sharp, and Han Fu's face was red, but his heart became more and more transparent, and layers of smiles gradually piled up on his old face, like a trumpet flower blooming in the corner.
"Han can get the help of Deyu, why should Yuan Benchu be afraid!"
