ββββ the following textββββ
A moment later, in Li Meng's tent, Xue Ao, Tong Yan, Zhao Yu, and Li Meng gathered around a table, looking at the officials of the Duwei Mansion brought by Tong Yan, and slowly spread out a map.
At this time, I saw Xue Ao calmly making a 'please' gesture to Tong Yan, probably signaling Tong Yan to introduce the current situation.
Tong Yan clenched his fists respectfully, and immediately raised his hand to a place on the map, and said, "Everyone, this is Liangcheng ......."
With that, he moved his finger to the southeast of the map, then stopped at a county town marked with 'Xianping', and said in a deep voice: "This is Xianping County. β¦β¦ According to the latest news from the scouts sent by our county, the rebel forces of Changsha and Jiangxia have surrounded Xianping on three sides......"
"The Changsha rebels in Guanshuo?" Li Meng, the governor of Henan, frowned and asked, "Wasn't the Changsha rebels defeated by Zhou Duwei?" β
As a party, Zhao Yu then opened his mouth to explain: "The Changsha rebels mentioned by Tong Duwei refer to Xiang Xuan. β¦β¦ According to the rebel generals captured by our side, when the Changsha rebels attacked our Yingchuan, they were divided into two, led by Guan Shuo, first taking Kunyang, then Yexian, and finally attacking Nanyang, and united with the Jingchu rebels to launch a front and rear attack on General Wang in Nanyang. During this period, Xiang Xuan's first department sent troops to Xuchang...... Originally, Guan Shuo's task of delivering Xiang Xuan was to contain Xuchang, but Zhou's predecessor Cao Duwei ...... In short, during that time, Xuchang was defeated repeatedly, which boosted Xiang Xuan's arrogance...... Li Duwei knew what happened later. β
"Xiang Xuan......"
Li Meng nodded, his expression became a little ugly, and he gritted his teeth and scolded: "This shameless man, he destroyed hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland in my Henan, and I have almost no harvest in Henan this year, all thanks to this guy." If I catch him, I will cut him with a thousand knives and scatter his bones and ashes! β
After that, he seemed to realize something, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said, "I'm out of shape, Tong Duwei, please continue." β
ββ¦β¦β
Zhao Yu glanced at Li Meng.
I have to say that although he admired Xiang Xuan in his heart, he also felt that Xiang Xuan's move to return to Henan that day in order to compare Li Meng's withdrawal was too ruthless, and he didn't consider how more than a million Henan people would survive after he destroyed the hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland.
Not to mention that Tong Yan knew that Li Meng and Xue Ao had a good relationship, even if there was no such relationship, Tong Yan would naturally not be blamed for this, he smiled and said with relief: "Li Duwei, please rest assured, these chaotic ministers and thieves, the court will eventually bring them to justice!" β
After that, he seemed to think of something, looked at Zhao Yu and said: "Speaking of this, Zhou Duwei has contributed a lot this time, if it weren't for Zhou Duwei defeating the traitor Guan Shuo in Kunyang, I am afraid that General Wang Shangde has been defeated by the two rebels of Jingchu and Changsha, so that today, there will be five rebel armies of Jingchu, Changsha, Jiangxia, Yuzhang, and Jiangdong converging in Liangjun...... In this matter, Lord Li of your county has been reported to the imperial court, and I believe that the imperial court will have another reward in the future. β
"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed." Zhao Yu humbly hugged his fists, but sighed in his heart.
In fact, he originally wanted to 'indulge' the rebels, that is, not to interfere with the rebels' well water, but Guan Shuo refused to agree to his request...... It's all to blame for Guan Shuo, so that the strategy of the Five Roads Righteous Master to join Liang County was not realized in the end!
Just when Zhao Yu was thinking wildly, Tong Yan continued: "As Zhou Duwei said, the two righteous divisions of Changsha and Jiangxia besieging Xianping County are actually mainly Jiangxia rebels, and the Changsha rebels only have one Xuan, which was expelled from Yingchuan by Zhou Duwei, and then defected to Chen Miao, the thief leader of the Jiangxia rebels, and helped him capture Chenliu County......"
After that, he pointed to another place on the map and continued: "This is Kao County, about seven or eight days ago, the two rebels of Yuzhang and Jiangdong occupied this county seat, according to the news sent by our side in the past two days, these two rebels have made contact with Chen Miao, and are preparing to come to Xianping, I believe that in a few days, these rebels will converge in Xianping." β¦β¦ The leader of the rebels in Yuzhang is named Cheng Zhou, and the leader of the rebels in Jiangdong is called Zhao Zhang......"
"Another surname Zhao?" Li Meng muttered.
"Again?"
Zhao Yu was slightly stunned, and immediately realized that there was a lot of article in it, so he asked, "Why did Captain Li say that?" β
"Zhou Duwei doesn't know? Oh. β
After asking, Li Meng remembered the not very good background of this Zhou Duwei, and hurriedly revealed it by explaining the matter: "In recent years, there have been many people from the Zhao family in the world who have rebelled against it, I remember that twelve years ago, a township surnamed Zhao in Jinan rebelled, it is said that he is still a township, I forgot what it was called, and was later killed by Jinan County, but somehow, it caused a riot in Jinan, and the thieves of Mount Tai also rose up, making a big fuss, and then the imperial court sent General Zhang Jing to suppress it, and Jinan settled down...... Nine years ago, there was also a county marquis surnamed Zhao in Lu County, who was suppressed by Lu County...... More than seven years ago, in Luyang County, Nanyang County, another township marquis surnamed Zhao plotted against him, saying that he was colluding with the rebels......"
γβ¦β¦γ
Zhao Yu's complexion, which was covered by a mask, suddenly became difficult to look at.
Luyang County, Nanyang County, a townsman surnamed Zhao...... Isn't that what he's talking about, Luyang Zhao?!
And at this moment, Li Meng seemed to remember something, and corrected: "Oh, no, Zhao Xianghou of Nanyang Luyang seems to have been rehabilitated, but the family surnamed Zhao in Dangshan five years ago should be right......"
As he was talking, from the side, Tong Yan, the commander of Liang County, interrupted with a dry smile: "Captain Li, Captain Li, hehehe, this military discussion, should we discuss how to deal with the rebels first?" β
"Oh." Reading the book
Li Meng realized that he had digressed, and was just about to apologize, but he heard Xue Ao snort coldly: "Hmph! β
Although Li Meng and Xue Ao had a friendship with Su Ri, he was also startled at this time, thinking that he had annoyed Xue Ao, and was about to clench his fists to apologize to Xue Ao, but saw Xue Ao pressing his hand towards him, and said calmly: "It's none of your business, Li Meng." β
Listening to the tone in which he spoke to Li Meng, it seemed that he was not angry because Li Meng had just withdrawn something that had nothing to do with the military discussion.
Seeing this, Li Meng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But Xue Ao was angry for no reason, which also made him a little confused: that is, Xue Ao was not angry because he was irrelevant to him, so why was he angry?
Only Zhao Yu noticed that Xue Ao had glanced at Tong Yan coldly before snorting coldly.
At the same time, through Li Meng's words, Zhao Yu also realized that it was not only his Luyang Zhao clan over the years, but also many other Zhao clans in the world who had suffered the same fate - they were exterminated by the local county army because of rebellion? Are you sure you weren't framed?
"Who is that Zhao Yu?"
Zhao Yu glanced at Tong Yan quietly.
As far as he knew, when this Tong Yan found him Luyang Zhao, it seemed that he was looking for a person named Zhao Yu, who was said to have no portrait, did not know the details, and was very mysterious.
In view of the fact that it was learned from Fang Cai Li Meng that after his Luyang Zhao family was martyred, about two years later, there was a Zhao family in the Dangshan area that suffered the same calamity again, it can be seen that Tong Yan and his comrades have not yet found the dangerous person named Zhao Yu. - Of course, the premise is that what Tong Yan said to Zhao Yu and his father Luyang Xianghou back then was not made up.
I just don't know if this Tong Yan has found that damn guy now.
In all fairness, because he was implicated, Zhao Yu didn't have any good feelings about that Zhao Yu, if this person fell into his hands, he might also be like Li Meng was going to use it to deal with Xiang Xuan, and he would be beaten to ashes, who called this guy implicated him Luyang Zhao family?
It's a pity that he can't ask Tong Yan clearly at this time, and this matter can only be answered after he catches this bastard thing without alarming anyone.
"Ahem."
Perhaps Tong Yan also knew that Xue Ao, the general of the cavalry, was snorting coldly at him, laughed dryly, and tried to change the topic back to the current military discussion: "In this world, there are always some chaotic ministers and thieves who try to oppose the imperial court...... According to reliable information, the thieves of the Jiangdong rebel army Zhao Zhang, Zhao Yu brothers, or may be the same party of the Zhao family of Jinan and Yi County, among the rebels, it is the Jiangdong rebel army is the most sinister, this time, Zhao Zhang, Zhao Yu brothers did not come, as far as the court knows, Zhao Zhang is attacking Jinan, and his brother Zhao Yu is seeking to seize the East China Sea, these two brothers are the evil of evil, we must eradicate it in the future, otherwise, it will inevitably become a big trouble for the imperial court. β
After a pause, he said: "Although the Zhao brothers did not personally lead the Jiangdong rebels to our Liang County, they sent their henchman Wu Yi, in addition, Zhao Zhang also sent his nephew, Zhao Bohu, and the rebels called him 'Bohu Gongzi'......"
During this period, the officials of the Governor's Office who followed him respectively put the portraits of Chen Miao, Xiang Xuan, Wu Yi, Zhao Bohu and other anti-thieves on the table.
"It's not like it......
Zhao Yu casually picked up the portraits of Chen Miao and Xiang Xuan.
He had seen Chen Xuan and Xiang Xuan in person, and he felt that this portrait was only five or six points of imagination at best.
Immediately, he handed the two portraits to Li Meng, and picked up the portrait marked with the words 'Zhao Bohu'.
At this time, I heard Tong Yan continue: "This time, we assisted General Xue to resist the rebels in Liang County, and the imperial court gave us two important tasks, one of which was to defeat the rebels in one fell swoop; Second, capture the thief Zhao Bohu...... This son is not only the nephew of Zhao Zhang and Zhao Yu's brothers, but also the disciple of the rebel military division Ram. β
"You want to arrest him? Hey!'
Putting down the portrait, Zhao Yu solemnly said to Tong Yan: "Please rest assured that Tong Duwei, we will definitely be able to catch all this anti-thief!" β
Tong has no doubt about this.
Tong Yan said with a smile: "With General Xue, Captain Li and Captain Zhou, why can't you defeat the rebels?" General Xue, did you say? β
Although Xue Ao had many prejudices against Tong Yan, he also nodded at this moment, and said, "Not bad!" The rebels and thieves will be broken by us! β
"What General Xue said is extremely true."
For a while, the tent was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
Whether it is Xue Ao, Tong Yan, Li Meng, or Zhao Yu with a mask, they all have smiles on their faces.
