Chapter 242: Leaving Chang'an
Chang'an City prepared food, clothing, and all other expenses, and Zhang Zhenli was finally about to leave here.
Li Dao and Guo Yan have already stayed in private, so there is no need here. And those court ministers wished that Zhang Zhen would leave quickly, as soon as Zhang Zhen's think tank left, the two straw bales of Li Dao and Guo Yan were very easy to deal with.
The moment Zhang Zhen stepped out of the gate of Chang'an, he suddenly felt a little nostalgic for this place, although he had fought and killed people here. At the same time, this is also the place where he met Cai Yong, so he thought of Chang'an City, and couldn't help but think of this great Confucian in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Did Cai Yong arrive in Bingzhou? Is everything going well? and so on, Zhang Zhen couldn't wait to get wings on his ribs and flew directly to Bingzhou, because he knew that there would be a large number of people studying under his rule, and he would not be able to find anyone available in the future.
According to Jia Xu's arrangement, Zhang Zhen had to divide his troops into three routes this time, the first way was Zhang Zhen, Tai Shici and Zhang Xiu, as bait, to go to Luoyang and Jizhou, and attract the attention of all the princes in the Central Plains. On the second road, Zhao Yun personally led 5,000 cavalry, under the banner of escorting the people, walked through Shuofang, passed through the clouds, and passed through Yanmen, as a suspicious soldier. The third road, led by Jia Xu, Xu Huang and Wen Chou led 5,000 men and horses, protected all the people, and went to the party and Jinyang.
This is actually a risky move. Jia Xu is gambling, and Zhang Yan, as a thief, still has a clear conscience. If Jia Xu guessed wrong, it is very likely that the entire migration plan will be in vain.
At first, Zhang Zhen disagreed, believing that the move was too risky. Zhang Yan, none of them have ever seen him, and they have never dealt with him, and no one knows his temperament. Zhang Yan has 100,000 Yellow Turban troops under his command, gathering in Montenegro is to rob homes and houses, to do evil, Ding Yuan also sent troops to recruit and suppress, but it was unsuccessful, and now he has assigned a thousand people to escort 30,000 people.
Jia Xu said: "Now the lord is still too weak, it is difficult to achieve a great cause without taking risks, where did Zhang Yan pass, although he took risks, but I can also guarantee that it was just a false alarm, Zhang Yan followed Zhang Jiao, and he played the banner of doing the right thing for heaven and saving the people of the world, although everyone explained, it was different from the bandits, and the lord could rest assured." ”
Xu Huang also said: "I have also heard of Zhang Yan, his real name is Chu Feiyan, he is one of Zhang Jiao's eight disciples, he was originally a poor people, when he was in Hedong, Zhang Yan went to preach on behalf of Taiping Dao, I heard that he also did a lot of good things, I think Mr. is right, more than 100,000 people from that side, safer than the other two!" ”
Zhang Zhen sighed: "That's it! Since this matter is left to the gentleman, and Komeito says so, then do as you want! Xu Huang and Wen Chou, you two listen to me, if Mr. Wenhe has any mistakes, you don't have to come back! ”
"Yes!" Xu Huang and Wen Chou replied at the same time.
Zhang Zhen said to Zhao Yun again: "Zilong, you are not easy to walk this way, the Xianbei and Xiongnu often enter the customs to harass you, you only have a few thousand people, remember my words, if you can fight, you must not be strong, and there will be a chance to clean them up in the future!" Zhao Yun nodded solemnly.
Zhang Zhen and Zhao Yun set off with great fanfare, and the civil and military officials sent Zhang Zhen and others out of the city as if they were sending a plague god. Zhao Yun played the banner of escorting the people and led his troops north. Zhang Zhen led Tai Shici and Zhang Xiu to the west with a few people. And Jia Xu, Xu Huang, and Wen Chou, who really escorted the people, had secretly left Chang'an as early as the night before yesterday, and Zhang Zhen said to the two in private: "I have informed Demou, and soon they will send a naval army to support, and by the way, they will also carry the people across the river, and everything will depend on Wen He."
Zhang Zhen arrived at Hangu Pass, and Fan Chou warmly entertained them. Fan Chou told Zhang Zhen: "If the general wants to go back to Taiyuan, I suggest you take a detour!" Yuan Shao is attacking Hanoi Zhangyang, and the war may be difficult to end for a while and a half! ”
"Why? How could Zhang Yang be Yuan Shao's opponent? Zhang Zhen was a little strange.
Fan Chou smiled: "This general doesn't understand, right?" Does the general know who is now controlling Luoyang? It's Cao Cao! Also, do you know where Lu Bu, who escaped from Chang'an, went? It's where the flamboyance is! ”
"What?" Zhang Zhen was shocked, Cao Cao controlled Luoyang, he was not surprised. What Zhang Zhen didn't expect was that Lu Bu would go to Zhang Yang with all his might.
Fan Chou said with a smile: "The general has been in Chang'an, I don't know much about the affairs of Kanto, after Lu Bu was driven out of Chang'an, he first went to Yuan Shu, and then to Yuan Shao, but he was driven out, and now in Zhang Yang, he is like a fish in water, and he is about to empty Zhang Yang!" ”
"No wonder Zhang Yang dares to shout at Yuan Shao, with Cao Cao's support, plus Lu Bu, a fierce general, Zhang Yang's confidence is indeed a lot!" Zhang Zhen nodded in praise.
Fan Chou said: "Now the situation, I advise the general to take a detour as well, and the provincial party will meet with Lu Bu's thief, it is estimated that he has hated you to the bone marrow, and it is dangerous to go." ”
Zhang Zhen was determined to continue to go east, they were few people, and those who fought or not did not have a big impact on them, as long as they did not encounter thousands of troops and horses head-on, Zhang Zhen could cope with it.
Saying goodbye to Fan Chou, several people went straight to Luoyang. As soon as I arrived in Luoyang, I was stopped. It turned out to be Xiahou Yuan. As soon as he saw Xiahou Yuan, Zhang Zhen shouted loudly under the city: "General Xiahou, open the door quickly, I have important matters to discuss with General Cao." ”
Xiahou Yuan did not order to open the door, looked at the few people behind Zhang Zhen, and replied: "It turned out to be a hussar general, please forgive the official for being rude, Lord Cao has an order, no one is allowed to enter Luoyang, and please wait for a few days, I will send someone to Chen Liu to inform Lord Cao." ”
Zhang Zhen is so angry! Little Xiahou Yuan took chicken feathers as an arrow. But I was very helpless, I only had a few followers, and I couldn't attack the city at all, so I could only endure this breath. Zhang Zhen had no choice but to find a random place outside Luoyang to settle down and wait for Xiahou Yuan to ask Cao Cao for advice.
After waiting for ten days, Xiahou Yuan personally went down to invite Zhang Zhen. When Xiahou Yuan saw Zhang Zhen, he hugged his fists and said: "Hussar general, forgive me, Lord Cao is very busy, and he just sent someone to send an order, please go to Chenliu." ”
Zhang Zhen was "escorted" by Xiahou Yuan's 200 soldiers all the way to Xuchang. Cao Cao laughed when he saw Zhang Zhen: "The hussar general killed Dong Zhuo in Chang'an, which can be regarded as a great contribution to my Han Dynasty, Cao Mengde, I sigh to myself, please sit down." ”
Zhang Zhen saw that a scribe behind Cao Cao kept looking at him. asked, "General Cao, why don't you see Mr. Xi?" ...... again? ”
When Cao Cao heard the name of Xi Zhicai, he was very sad, and sighed: "A few days ago, Mr. Xi was seriously ill, and the treatment was ineffective, and he has passed away!" But a generation of talents died like this, which really makes me heartbroken! ”
