Chapter 362: When It's Hard It's Time to Be Hard, You Can't Be Soft
Xiahou Xuan came to Chang'an this time, just for Cao Shuang's plan to cut down Shu next year, the so-called soldiers and horses have not moved, grain and grass first, such a large army to go out, especially to cross the mountains and mountains, across the steep Qinling Mountains, logistics support has become particularly important.
Therefore, the most important task of Xiahou Xuan's trip is to raise grain and grass. The logistics needs of the army of more than 100,000 are quite a large number, and in the original plan, part of the materials will be transferred from Luoyang and other places, and most of the materials will need to be supported by Yongliang and Liangzhou.
For the requisition of the imperial court, Guo Huai, the assassin of Yongzhou, was full of promises, but in the actual operation, there were all kinds of unexpected difficulties, so that more than a month after Xiahou Xuan's arrival, the progress of material procurement was slow, and it was far from the original plan.
Xiahou Xuan knew that all this was actually inseparable from Guo Huai, but Guo Huai did it well, even if Xiahou Xuan wanted to find him, he had nowhere to start.
At a critical time, Xiahou Xuan thought of Cao Liang again, Cao Liang is resourceful, brave and strategic, if he can be here, he will definitely be able to solve problems for himself.
The reason why Xiahou Xuan proposed Cao Liang to do his long history is to fancy Cao Liang's ability and resourcefulness, the last time in the battle of Huainan, Cao Liang had a very good performance, when Xiahou Xuan was injured and could not see things, Cao Liang took the southern army out of the predicament, in all fairness, Xiahou Xuan thought that even if he was not injured, he might not be able to handle it as perfectly as Cao Liang.
Therefore, Xiahou Xuan's reliance on Cao Liang is very strong, and he very much hopes that he can bring Cao Liang with him when he takes up the post of general of Zhengxi, but it is very unfortunate that Cao Liang is about to get married, and Xiahou Xuan cannot take Cao Liang away at this time anyway, so he can only wait for Cao Liang to get married before transferring him to Chang'an.
In fact, Xiahou Xuan is already very unhappy, who doesn't have a newlywed Yan'er, who doesn't have a newlywed honeymoon, and the order given to Cao Liang is on the seventh day of his marriage, and he has to go to the front line in such a short time after getting married, Xiahou Xuan feels a little unkind.
But Xiahou Xuan is really out of luck, at the moment he is in Chang'an, almost struggling, running into walls everywhere, although Xiahou Xuan is said to have taken his original strategists with him on this trip, but in the face of difficulties, he is also worried.
The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, Xiahou Xuan is also very helpless, now Guanzhong, almost a monolith, pulling a hair and moving the whole body, Xiahou Xuan is really a little helpless, only to wait until Cao Liang comes to find a way.
Xiahou Xuan waited for Cao Liang's arrival for several days, and it was almost time to arrive, but Xiahou Xuan never heard Cao Liang's news, and when he was anxious, news of Tongguan came.
Xiahou Xuan didn't say a word, and went straight to Tongguan.
Regarding the contradiction between Cao Liang and Tongguan guard Chengji, Xiahou Xuan didn't think it was a big deal at all, but he didn't expect the two to be on the bar because of this, Chengji refused to let the Yueqi camp that came at night enter the city, and Cao Liang simply sealed Guanluo Avenue directly.
Xiahou Xuan only cared about whether Cao Liang had arrived, and he didn't think about who was right and who was wrong in this matter, even if Cao Liang demolished Tongguan, Xiahou Xuan didn't necessarily think that Cao Liang was wrong.
Xiahou Xuan asked Cao Liang to immediately set up camp and follow him back to Chang'an.
Cao Liang shook his head again and again, and said, "The matter here hasn't been solved yet, what's the hurry?" ”
Xiahou Xuan looked bitter and said: "Cao Ziming, you have a bit of an inch, you have sealed Guanluo Avenue for three days, and the entire trip in Guanzhong is full of complaints, I have borne all these for you, what are you going to do?" ”
Cao Liang said: "There is a wrong, there is a debtor, if you don't give the Yue cavalry battalion an explanation, it will definitely be endless, if you just withdraw without saying a word, others will think that the Yue cavalry camp has confessed." ”
"Then what do you mean is that Tongguan Governor Chengji must be held responsible?" Xiahou Xuan said with some sorrow, "Ziming, in fact, both of you are responsible for this matter, if you really investigate it, I'm afraid it will also be fifty boards each, rather than this, it is better to calm things and take a step back, now the matter in Guanzhong is more complicated, and we have to rely on Guo Huai, Cheng Ji is his person, if Cheng Ji and Guo Huai are too stiff because of the punishment, I am afraid that things will be more difficult to do in the future." ”
Cao Liang smiled, Xiahou Xuan seemed to be more and more timid the official did, thinking that when he was carrying the coffin in Sima's house to make trouble, Xiahou Xuan was still full of spirits and dared to be angry at Sima's family, but now in Chang'an, he has become more and more cautious, the edges and corners of his original body are almost smoothed out, and he is bent on coming to the mud, but he doesn't know that the more so, the more rampant the opponent will be, to the point that it is not as good as a hard bar to the end, but it makes the opponent stunned by three points.
"Brother Tai Chu, since you became the general of Zhengxi, your temperament has changed a lot, you know, a compromise can't bring peace, even if the cool water is deep, you have to go over, sometimes, the way back also needs to be killed!" Cao Liang spoke earnestly.
Xiahou Xuan said helplessly: "I don't know the truth, but this time in Chang'an, shouldering the trust of the general, how dare you be so willful as you, if you mess up this errand, how can you explain to the general?" ”
Cao Liang smiled and said: "Brother Tai Chu is too worried, in my opinion, if you do it according to Brother Tai Chu's method, there is a chance that this errand will be messed up, and I am afraid that only if you put it to death, maybe there will be a glimmer of change." ”
Xiahou Xuan said with some surprise: "Put it in death and then live, does Ziming mean that Guo Huai and I will completely tear our faces?" ”
Cao Liang smiled lightly and said: "That's not necessary, Guo Huai is also an old fox, he has been mixed with Sima Yi for so many years, Sima Yi's ability to cultivate obscurity, he has learned a lot, after all, Brother Tai's position is above him, and many times, he will also weigh and weigh things, now that the general of the DPRK is in power, it is not the world of the Sima family, so why should Brother Tai Chu be vain with him, when it is time to be tough, he must not be weak." ”
Xiahou Xuan was a little curious, Cao Liang did not rush to Chang'an in person, but he knew the situation in Chang'an well, and it was true to say that Guo Huai was an old fox, Xiahou Xuan had dealt with him a lot, so he could naturally see his sophistication and tactfulness. "So what do we do next?"
Cao Liang smiled mysteriously and said: "Actually, we don't have to do anything, just wait and see what happens, didn't we hear that Guo Huai has arrived at the Tongguan Governor's Mansion, we might as well come and see, how will Guo Huai deal with this matter?" ”
