Chapter 28 Langzhou
There has been a saying since ancient times: profit makes wisdom faint.
Looking at Ma Xicao's whimsical appearance, Liu Yan shook his head helplessly, and he said slowly: "My lord, I just want to ask you one thing, if the king summons Langzhou to appease the generals under the envoy of Wu'an, how many people can guarantee that the lord will follow the lord to the south to 'King Qin'?" β
Ma Xicao was silent, and said for a long time: "Ma Yun launched a coup d'Γ©tat and imprisoned the king, I am under the banner of Qinwangdi, presumably there should be a lot of responders!" β
Liu Yan couldn't help but continue: "My lord, now Li Tang is fond of empty talk, not caring for the national strength and people's power, the Central Plains is turbulent, the fifth prince is quite a martial arts king's legacy, the heart of the army, the public opinion, the ambition is high, know people and make good use of it, the land of Jinghu is probably just his stepping board, this person takes advantage of the void, and may not be able to achieve the cause of overturning the king's hegemony in the future, from the Changsha coup, it can also be seen that this person plans and then acts, by no means rude and martial arts, the wise man seeks the country, such as talking about Go, a son has not fallen, he sees through the next dozens of steps, and slowly lays out, Talking and laughing between the collection of water to the success of the work, the five princes are interested in the world, I am afraid it is difficult to tolerate the adults you are in charge of Langzhou, sooner or later it will be recovered Langzhou, now, there is Liao Renyong in the south to support the army in Yiyang, Zhu Yuan in the north to guard the head of the stone, Langzhou outside the righteousness, there is a worry about the army out of control, if you hesitate, I am afraid there will be a big change! The five princes will never let go of any opportunity to control Langzhou, now, the situation of Jinghu is like a game of chess, the situation in Changsha is stable, there are tens of thousands of troops inside, and the outside controls the northwest gateway Yiyang, if the adults go directly south, it is tantamount to hitting the stone with an egg, it is never advisable, as for deceiving Zhu Yuan and seizing his army, you think, that Zhu Yuanguan worships the defense envoy, it can be said that he is the high-level in the Jingnan army, the plan of the five princes to seize power, Zhu Yuan is such a big man, it is impossible not to know nothing, this plan is tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger, I'm afraid it will lure wolves into the house! β
Liu Yan's eyebrows were quite excited, and the more he said this, the faster he spoke, the higher and higher the tone of his voice, as soon as the words fell, he heard someone outside the study sneer: "Lord Liu, Ma Yun promised you a great future, and how many benefits he gave you!" You have been so diligent in advocating for him, have you forgotten the strength of my father who has supported you for years? β
Where the door curtain opened, it was Ma Guangxio's son Ma Guangzan who entered the study, and he stared at Liu Yan with the gaze of a thief, his eyes were sharp, as if he wanted to cut open Liu Yan's chest and look directly at his heart.
Liu Yan stood up calmly, and after giving a deep salute to Ma Guangzan, he said: "The eldest prince, the lower officials are just talking about things, a sincere heart, the world can be learned, what is said may be ugly, but after all, at the moment, the situation is stronger than people, and if you are not careful, it will be a place of no return!" The eldest prince, raising troops and raising things, is by no means child's play, once the matter starts, it is like a sharp arrow off the string, splashing water to the ground, and there is no time to regret it, Sun Tzu said: Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, must not be observed! If you don't think it through, it's all set up, just in case,:"
Liu Yanyan was eager to confess and persuade, Ma Xicao was hesitant by him, but before he could finish speaking, Ma Guangzan smiled disapprerovingly: "Lord Liu is alarmist, according to your thoughts, how long will it take to prepare for this to be considered a complete arrangement, my father has been the envoy of the Wu'an Festival for five or six years, and he has lived in the prestige of Langzhou." Although it is not said that it is a call to ascend to the heights, the responders are like clouds, but it is also forbidden, smelling Mo Bu and trembling, bowing his head and obeying orders, Wu'an Jiedu Embassy moderation Lang, Xu, Xi, Chen, Yue Zhuzhou, with 40,000 soldiers, and it is a soldier who has been fighting with the Insight clan for a long time, it can be said that the soldiers are full of food, and the internal army is only 40,000, and the leader was killed, the army is in turmoil, and his father is encouraging the people to go south, and he is sending people to lobby the Insight clan to send troops to Xuzhou, so that Ma Yun can not take care of each other, and it is difficult for him to sit firmly in Changsha:"
"This plan is not appropriate, Master Ma, you have forgotten that Peng Shigao, the chief general of the internal army, is the son of the great chief of the Insight Clan, if he comes forward to lobby the Insight Clan, those barbarians may not only not send troops to attack Changsha, I am afraid that they will also take advantage of the weakness to attack the place on my back, the Insight Clan is not a reinforcement, but has become a killer weapon:"
"Knowing that there are many contradictions within the clan and they are not subordinate to each other, I don't believe that Peng Shigao can convince them all!" Ma Guangzan said angrily.
Eight years ago, the insight tribe rebelled, and the king of Chu, Ma Xifan, sent Zhang Shaodi, Liu Quanming and others to lead the army to break it, build a bronze pillar and return with merit, and the insight tribe either fled or surrendered, and since then they have been opposed to each other and restrained each other, and they can no longer succeed. Pinning your hopes on the Insight Clan is unattainable after all!
Ma Xicao looked at his henchman and strategist on the left and shook his head, and looked at his beloved son on the right, and couldn't help but shake his head again, at the critical moment, whether to send troops to commit crimes, or to call himself a minister, he hesitated, fish and bear's paws, how can he have both?
Seeing that Ma Xicao was silent, Ma Guangzan said again: "Father, even if you are hesitant, it is better to order the Wu'an Jiedu Embassy to control the army, all of which are accumulated in Langzhou, how about supporting the army with self-respect, fighting or surrendering, all by me, wouldn't it be wonderful!" β
This was said to Ma Xicao's heart, he glanced at his son appreciatively, so wonderful, he could actually think of it!
Liu Yan opened his mouth and was about to speak, but saw Ma Xixu stand up again, slammed his head, and said: "According to my son's opinion, I will quickly order and mobilize troops to gather in Langzhou!" β
Liu Yan interjected: "My lord, what kind of name do you want to use to mobilize the army? β
"This ,,, this ,,!" He glanced at Ma Guangzan and didn't know what to say.
"Right now, Chu Han is fighting fiercely in Lingnan, and those who are courtiers should first seek for the monarch's father, we will mobilize a large army to perform and select strong people to go south to help, even the king will definitely reward us heavily!"
At the end of April of the second year of the Great Jin Dynasty, Wuping Jiedu made Ma Xicao mobilize the soldiers and horses of Xu, Xi and Chen Prefectures to practice in Langzhou, these troops had just assembled in Langzhou, stationed in Shishou Zhu Yuan, and even the soldiers went south and stationed in Xuzhou, and Peng Shigao was also ordered to inspect in Xi and Chen Prefectures to appease the local people of the Insight Tribe, these people were ordered by the king, and the local officials bowed their heads to obey orders, and there was no **** resistance, Langzhou was surrounded by regiments from all directions.
Ma Xicao fell on the Taishi's chair in the study, and he didn't know what to do.
"Mr. Liu, in your opinion, this Ma Yun, ah, no, what does the king mean!" Seeing Liu Yan coming in, Ma Xixu hurriedly asked.
Liu Yan sighed heavily and said: "My lord, in the past, Zheng Zhuang Gong knew that his younger brother was ambitious and had bad intentions, but he did not immediately send troops, but instead sealed him in a big city, in order to be proud of his ambition, and waited until his rebellion was exposed, he sent troops to fight, why is this?" It's just because in the previous time, although he was anti-minded, he didn't take action, he took it rashly, and he was afraid that people would not be convinced, this is a deliberate attempt to raise tigers to eliminate traitors! My lord, stationed in Langzhou, there is no merit and hard work, even if the prince is jealous of you in his heart, I am afraid that he will not send troops to recruit without authorization, he coup d'Γ©tat to seize the throne, I am afraid that his heart is very worried about his reputation, you have no change, he will never send troops, but you rashly gather troops, it is tantamount to giving him a mouthful, if at this time, he sent someone to pass the edict of the king, transfer you to Changsha or move the town to other places, are you from the fate or not, if he first sent people to the military camp outside Langzhou City, spread the edict of the king, do you think that the city led the troops to come Chen, If you are ordered by the king to enter Changsha, then it is useless for you to gather troops, but it increases the suspicion of the five princes of your land, if you raise troops to the south, you don't need to send a soldier to Changsha at all, the 30,000 soldiers and horses outside the city are enough to capture Langzhou, my lord, the overall situation has been decided, you hurry up to congratulate the five princes as the son! Otherwise, it will be too late to regret it:"
"Father, why don't you immediately give an order, and the generals of Jiangchen and Zhuzhou will be summoned to the city to coerce them to do things together, this overall situation may not be like what Liu Yan said!"
Loyal to the ear, Liu Yan sighed slightly, no longer speak, the matter has come to this, let Ma Jiedu choose life and death!
"My lord, my lord, the king has sent a messenger," the butler ran in in a panic and reported in a loud voice.
What the? The teacup that had been held in Ma Xicao's hand fell to the ground with a bang and was shattered, Ma Xicao said in a panic: "How many people have they come?"
The housekeeper glanced at it in surprise, and Ma Xixu said: "It is a palace eunuch, plus eight guards, a total of nine people in the line:"
Ma Xicao and the others put their minds at ease, Ma Guangzan seemed to have a disapproving expression on his face, and Liu Yan secretly scolded in his heart: Straw bale, the general trend has gone, and I don't know yet.
The edict was passed on by a eunuch in his twenties in the palace, who was accustomed to seeing high-ranking officials, tilted his head, held his chest up, and read the edict of the king of Chu aloud with his toes proud, and sure enough, Liu Yan did not infer that this edict was really to recruit Ma Xicao into Changsha, worship as a lieutenant, a scholar of Tiance Mansion, Ma Yun is a judge of the military inside and outside, the title of this lieutenant may have become an honorary title, as for the scholar of Tiance Mansion, it should be a favor for the old minister, this Ma Yun is so ruthless, he actually wants to give him a horse festival to the end, This made Ma Xixu, who was single-mindedly trying to continue to save Wu'an, dissatisfied.
Seeing that Ma Xicao was not summoned, the eunuch was a little anxious, and suddenly, he thought about it and continued: "Before entering the city, our family first went to a big camp outside the city, and the edict of the king of Chu was announced to the generals outside the city, and they were happy and were about to leave:"
Ma Xixu's heart trembled, and he lost his voice: "What is the edict?"
The eunuch said dissatisfiedly: "It is the king's sympathy for the soldiers, the edict of rewarding the three armies, and the other is to transfer and promote the military positions, oh, yes, the king has an order, from today onwards, the Wu'an Jiedu envoy and the Jingnan Jiedu envoy will be abolished, and the Wu'an Daodu will be set up, with Zhang Shaodi as the commander, and the Jingnan Daodu will be set up, with Ding Sijin as the commander, in charge of the military; The Wu'an Dao pacification envoy and the Jingnan Dao pacification envoy were reinstated, in charge of civil affairs and other affairs, oh, and the Wu'an Jiedu envoy and the Jingnan Jiedu envoy were all invalidated! β
"What?" It was Ma Guangzan's turn to praise in a silent voice, Ma Yun's hand was actually to strip Ma Xicao to the brim, now it is really the general trend has gone, kill this eunuch, and act hard, it's not impossible, but at the moment, the main land that Ma Xicao can control is probably only Langzhou, the 10,000 defenders, Langzhou has the danger of lakes and mountains, that means that Longyang County guards the Dongting Lake ferry, which can keep the Dongting Navy out, and Wuling County relies on the Yuan River, which is enough to resist the inevitable danger, and Yuzhou has the remnants of Bashan, but now it is different, Outside the city, 30,000 troops were transferred by themselves in a daze, except for the lonely Langzhou City, how can there be any reason to defend the land according to danger! Knowing that they had rebelled, the 30,000 people outside the city would probably jump up with joy, which was a great military feat for them!
Ma Xicao was still hesitating, but the eunuch on the opposite side couldn't wait to urge: "Captain Ma, hurry up and be summoned!" The king misses you very much, so follow me back to Changsha quickly! If you delay the time, the king will be displeased! β
Ma Xicao looked left and right, and said helplessly for a long time: "Weichen is called!" β
Ma Yun was quite worried about the chaos in Dilangzhou, but it didn't happen in the end.
In the second year of the Great Jin Dynasty, on May 10, on the fifth day of Ma Xixu's family moving to Changsha, the king of Chu issued an edict to officially let the king be located in Ma Yun, and the political pattern of Jiangnan changed.
