Chapter 686: Kindness at home
Sima Yi's rebellion?
Gao Jun and Xun Hong couldn't help but be stunned, although the relationship between the Gao family and Sima Yi is relatively close, but no matter how close the relationship is, it is impossible to disclose such important news to them, even if the Gao family and the Xun family may know, it must be the Gao family and the head of the Xun family that it is possible to know, and it is impossible to convey it to them anyway.
You must know that the plan of any rebellion is quite tight, and often only the most trusted and core people can access this secret, and the less people know, the safer it is, and if there are more people who know, it is difficult to guarantee that the news will not leak out.
With Sima Yikul's cautious and serious character, how could he easily leak the news?
Gao Rou and Xun Yi, the head of the Xun family, did participate in Sima Yi's military advice this time, but when they planned, it was already after yesterday evening, and Gao Jun and Xun Hong were still in the military camp outside the city, not to mention that Gao Rou and Xun Yi had received Sima Yi's explanation and could not be disclosed, even if they really wanted to inform it, it was too late.
After Gao Jun and Xun Hong heard the news, they were extremely shocked, the rebellion was a catastrophe of raiding the family and exterminating the clan, even if the Gao family's Xun family had a close relationship with the Sima family, but before this kind of major event, it was impossible for them to protect the Sima family.
"General Cao, you misunderstood, we don't know, Sima Taifu's rebellion has nothing to do with us!" Gao Jun and Xun Hong hurriedly argued.
Cao Yan said in a deep voice: "Your Gao family's Xun family has always had a good relationship with the Sima family, this time Sima Yi launched a rebellion, how can the Gao family and the Xun family stay out of the matter, even if you don't know, can your parents not know?" A certain and Sima Yi swore that they were not at odds, how could they tolerate people who were involved with him in the cavalry camp. Take it down, imprison it, and deal with it after the Sima Yi rebellion is put down! ”
Cao Yan is kind-hearted in the end, and he didn't kill Gao Jun and Xun Hong, after all, they have worked together for many years, even if the friendship is not so deep, but they still have the friendship of robes, if Cao Yan is allowed to execute them immediately at this time, he really can't be that ruthless.
Moreover, Cao Yan only judged based on the relationship between the Gao family's Xun family and the Sima family, suspecting that they had a problem, but whether Gao Jun and Xun Hong participated in the Sima family's rebellion still needs to be further confirmed.
Gao Jun and Xun Hong still wanted to argue, but Cao Yan's personal soldiers seemed to ignore it, and directly pushed them out and imprisoned them.
It was Cao Liang's idea to imprison Gao Jun and Xun Hong, and when Cao Liang and Cao Yan were discussing before, Cao Liang suggested that Cao Yan must use the necessary means to control Gao Jun and Xun Hong, because Cao Liang knew that the Gao family and the Xun family were also involved in Sima Yi's rebellion, especially Gao Rou, who was appointed by Sima Yi as the general of Xingda and acted for Cao Shuang during the Gao Pingling Incident, and Gao Jun was the son of Gao Rou, Cao Liang was worried that he would mutiny in the Xiao Cavalry Camp and affect their plans.
Cao Yan naturally attaches great importance to Cao Liang's request, after all, Gao Xun and the others have never been his henchmen, although the relationship looks good on the surface, but there is still some estrangement.
Taking down Gao Jun and Xun Hong can be regarded as solving a worry.
The reason why Cao Yan chose to do it at this time was precisely because he had just received the news of Sima Yi's mutiny, although Cao Liang had been very sure that Sima Yi's rebellion would occur in the next few days, but the specific time was still unclear.
And in this unclear situation, Cao Yan's side cannot act without authorization no matter what, and the Xiaocai battalion must wait for the Sima family to mutiny before it can act, otherwise, Cao Yan will bear the name of rebellion.
Because of this, Cao Yan was highly concerned about everything that happened in Luoyang City in the past two days, after the Son of Heaven and Cao Shuang left Beijing yesterday, Cao Yan sent people to closely monitor every move in Luoyang City, even at night, he still sent people to lurk outside Luoyang City to observe the movements in the city, and once the situation changed, Cao Yan would be notified as soon as possible.
Sima Jiajun controlled the Luoyang City Gate during the fifth watch, although there was a time lag in controlling the city gates, but on the whole, they acted quickly, and before the sky was completely bright, they had firmly controlled the twelve city gates.
And Cao Yan also got the news of the Luoyang mutiny at the first time, he summoned Gao Jun and Xun Hong to the Chinese military tent to drink in advance, and as soon as the news arrived, he immediately smashed the cup as a number, summoned the hidden soldiers into the tent, and took down the two with lightning speed.
The situation of Gao Jun and Xun Hong being escorted out was seen by Wen Qin, and he couldn't help but be puzzled, so he went straight to see Cao Yan and arched his hand: "General Cao, what crime did Captain Gao Gao and Captain Xun commit and why did they imprison them?" ”
Cao Yan saw Wen Qin coming in, and said: "Zhong Ruo, you came just in time, I just got the news that Sima Yi launched a mutiny in Luoyang City and conspiracy to rebel, and the Gao family and the Xun family were also involved, so the two of them were temporarily detained, if it is confirmed that they have nothing to do with the rebellion in the future, it is not too late to release them, and if they have indeed participated in the rebellion, they will be handed over to the imperial court for disposal." ”
Wen Qin was taken aback, although he vaguely heard some news in advance, he may not have known that this rebellion came so quickly, and he didn't know that the mastermind of the rebellion was actually Taifu Sima Yi.
Cao Yan's reaction to Wen Qin felt that it was normal, after all, anyone who heard about this would be shocked. Cao Yan instructed the Chinese army to summon Lian Hong and Liu Jing.
Lian Hong and Liu Jing soon arrived, and when they heard the news, they were also shocked, and their faces were incredible.
Cao Yan glanced at the three of them, and said in a deep voice: "Sima Yi is in rebellion, and a certain general, as a Xiao cavalry general, will never allow such a rebellion to happen, so he is ready to immediately lead the Xiao cavalry battalion into Luoyang to quell the rebellion, and you will follow a certain person for many years, if you are willing to go with you, you are welcome to join, if you are not willing to go, you will not force it." ”
Wen Qin led Liu Jing and immediately bowed his hand and said: "But the general's order is obeyed!" ”
Cao Yan smiled slightly, it seems that these three people are really his good brothers, and in times of crisis, they are still willing to stand up and sacrifice themselves to follow.
"We act immediately, the front military headquarters is temporarily under the command of Zhong Ruo, you and Zhong Yuan lead the troops to occupy Kim Yong City, and the rear military headquarters is temporarily under the command of Wen Gong, and follow me to take the Great Xia Gate." Cao Yan ordered in a deep voice.
"Yui!" Wen Qin, Lian Hong, and Liu Jing immediately bowed down to receive the order.
