Chapter 233: The Situation in Luoyang
The news of the county seat of Guangning reached Luoyang three days ago, which immediately caused a shock in the government and the opposition. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty attached great importance to this matter, and for three consecutive days, hundreds of officials of the court were all around this matter.
The ministers of the DPRK and China were divided into two factions, the main battle and the main peace, and the forces headed by the great general He Jin advocated fighting, believing that this was a golden opportunity, and that this incident could be used to establish the prestige of the Han Dynasty, so that the Yi people outside the country would no longer dare to covet the Han Dynasty.
The lord and the faction are some civil servants, because at this time the Beigong Boyu in Xiliang has not yet been pacified, if too many soldiers are sent into Youzhou, how about the Beigong Boyu taking advantage of the situation to attack at that time?
The imperial court has successively sent the five-way army to attack Beigong Boyu, but they all returned in vain, except for Zhu Jun and Dong Zhuo, the returning court officials and soldiers all suffered heavy casualties.
In Wenchen's view, Zhao Yi's move seems to have taken advantage of it, but it is actually a big risk. The cavalry of the Qiangqu tribe is brave and strong, and it is not something that the official army of Youzhou can contend with.
"Your Majesty, at this moment, our army occupies the initiative, if we take the initiative to sue for peace with the Huns, wouldn't it damage our face." He Jin argued, "And the soldiers and horses of Jizhou Mu Zhu Jun have entered Youzhou, according to Weichen, Yangzhou soldiers and horses can be dispatched into Youzhou to support Youzhou Mu Zhao Yi." He Jin admired Zhao Yi's action, and secretly said that Zhao Yi was worthy of being a contemporary talent, and he could come up with such a wonderful way to trap the Xiongnu tribe in the Qiangqu area.
This Xiongnu tribe is also really hateful, in the past when our dynasty was prosperous, the southern Xiongnu longed to be able to wear a pair of pants with my Han Dynasty, and now when they see the Han Dynasty disputes, they covet it. Just take this opportunity to kill their arrogance.
Although Qingzhou and Xuzhou are relatively close to Youzhou, because there are still remnants of the Yellow Turban Army in the territory, if the soldiers and horses of the state capital are transferred out, it is difficult to ensure that the Yellow Turban Army will not resurge.
Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong didn't speak this time, and watched He Jin and others fight endlessly, in fact, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong had already discussed this matter.
It was when they had just learned the news, and Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong were very happy when they got the news for the first time, and secretly said that this Zhao Yi was really a rare genius, and he was not wrong. If you can win this person for your own use, it will definitely be a great help for yourself.
Zhang Rang hated He Jin to the core, He Jin actually killed his wife Hanyan, because of this matter Zhang Rang has been in conflict with He Jin recently, but because of Queen He, and He Jin's identity as a general, Zhang Rang can only put several of He Jin's henchmen in prison, and he has never been able to shake He Jin's foundation.
This made Zhang Rang quite annoyed, so he wanted to support Zhao Yi, if he could get Zhao Yi's help, Zhang Rang was eighty percent sure that he would cut off the strength of He Jin's department.
Therefore, when they heard the news that Zhao Yi of Youzhou Mu besieged the Xiongnu tribe in Guangning County, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong were very happy in their hearts, if this battle was won, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong would be able to use means to transfer Zhao Yi back to the capital. Let Yang Xiu take the position of Youzhou Mu, so that the military power and talents are all in their hands, even if there is an accident in the future, Zhang Rang will have confidence in his heart.
But they still had some worries in their hearts, because they felt that the bigger Zhao Yi's official position was, the more he would not obey orders. According to the rules of the imperial court, the transfer of soldiers and horses in the state capital needs to be approved by the imperial court, and Zhao Yi actually transferred Jizhou soldiers and horses without authorization, especially Zhu Jun, the pastor of Jizhou, who acted together with Zhao Yi.
Although the situation was critical at that time, and it was too late to report the change to the imperial court, the official document sent by Zhao Yi the day before yesterday did not have an explanation for this, only saying that he hoped that the imperial court would send reinforcements.
Zhang Rang admits that Zhao Yi is a talent, but his body is full of thorns and is not easy to master. If such a person is made a prince, wouldn't it be even more arrogant.
However, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong did not let the imperial court negotiate peace with the Qiangqu Department because they were afraid of Zhao Yi's growth. There are 50,000 Hun soldiers in Guangning County, and once they are free, whether they will do things according to the contract, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong are not sure. If the escaped Hun soldiers immediately turned their horses to deal with Zhao Yi's officers and soldiers, what would be good?
Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong also wanted to rely on Zhao Yi's forces to achieve great things, and they didn't want these soldiers to be killed by the Huns. Therefore, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong have been weighing and undecided.
Zhao Zhong had the intention of letting his brother-in-law Yang Xiu replace Zhao Yi at this time, but Zhao Zhong received a report that Yang Xiu did not dare to go back to Guangning County since he saw the scene of the Xiongnu map.
Yang Xiu was so cowardly, how dare Zhao Zhong put the Youzhou army into his hands.
Zhao Yun, who was listening to the argument between the two camps in the court, his eyes flashed, and when he received the news from Youzhou three days ago, Zhao Yun was startled, unlike the excitement of He Jin and others, Zhao Yun was very nervous in his heart, and secretly said that his son really didn't let him worry, and the bigger the official position, the bigger the trouble. It turned out that Zhao Yi was fighting with the Yellow Turban Army and the Montenegrin Army, and his wife Chen was often frightened. I thought that Zhao Yi, as the pastor of Youzhou, would balance the forces of all parties for a few years, but I didn't expect that after less than half a year, Zhao Yi would do such a big thing.
Now it seems that Zhao Yi has taken advantage of it, but Zhao Yun knows that it is dangerous, but there are 50,000 Hun soldiers in Guangning County, once they break free from the shackles of Guangning County and rush into the official army camp, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties among the Youzhou soldiers in the morning.
The officers and soldiers of Youzhou suffered heavy casualties, and Zhao Yi, as the state pastor, was the target of the Qiangqu key attack, and he had no chance of survival.
From a personal point of view, Zhao Yun naturally hoped that the imperial court would send troops to help, but because his relationship with Zhao Yi was extraordinary. It is not good to speak for Zhao Yi openly on this occasion, so he can only be secretly anxious in his heart.
Looking at those who oppose the imperial court's sending troops, these people have always had a lot of complaints about Zhao Yi's promotion to Youzhou Mu, and now that they encounter this opportunity, they naturally want to rectify Zhao Yi well.
For them, Zhao Yi was too sharp, and he was arrogant and arrogant, so he didn't take them seriously at all. Compared with Zhao Yi's sharp edge, the original Youzhou pastor Liu Yu is much more gentle, and he is quite popular in Youzhou, if Zhao Yi is removed and Liu Yu is appointed as Youzhou pastor, the situation in Youzhou at this time must be peaceful, not like now.
What both sides said made sense, so Emperor Han Ling couldn't decide for a while, so he had to wave his hand to let the courtiers retreat, saying that the matter would be discussed later.
Hearing Emperor Han Ling's words, Zhao Yun stared at Emperor Han Ling's back, his eyes flashed, and he secretly said in his heart that the Great Han Dynasty was almost over.
Through this matter, Zhao Yun was even more chilled by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, the emperor of a great country should have his own criteria for deciding things, rather than being so uncertain.
This is a 100,000 urgent event, although Zhao Yun has never led the soldiers, but he also knows that the fighter plane is fleeting, how can it be delayed so much.
Luoyang is thousands of miles away from Youzhou, and it takes almost a month for the herald soldiers to come and go, and the victory of the battle can be decided in a quarter of an hour, let alone this month.
Whether it's war or peace, you have to make a decision. This matter has been discussed for three days, and if it continues to be discussed like this, the battle of Quang Ninh will be over long ago.
Zhao Yun shook his head and sighed and walked out of the court, very worried about Zhao Yi's future, and secretly said that Zhao Yi was born at the wrong time, if it was in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che was afraid that he would have given the order to attack a long time ago. But today's emperor has an empty imperial name, but no imperial spirit.
Zhao Yun, who was walking in, was stopped by He Jin, who was following closely: "Zhao servant, please stay." ”
He Jin's face was not good-looking, and it seemed that he was also dissatisfied with the emperor's decision. He Jin took Zhao Yun to a secluded place, looked at the surroundings and saw that there were no eunuchs around, and then said, "Is Lord Zhao worried about Bolai?" ”
Anyone whose son is in such a dangerous situation will be worried by parents. Zhao Yun nodded and sighed: "Yes, now Youzhou's behavior is unpredictable, and if you are not careful, it will be a disaster." ”
"Don't worry, my lord, before the last dynasty, I have sent someone to Yangzhou and asked General Sun Jian to personally lead 20,000 soldiers from Jiangdong to reinforce Youzhou." He Jin's words were like giving Zhao Yun a peace of mind pill.
If Yangzhou soldiers and horses enter Youzhou, Zhao Yi can naturally sit back and relax, Zhao Yun's hanging heart just let go, and suddenly came up again: "Without Your Majesty's will, how can the general privately transfer troops and horses?" "The mobilization of soldiers and horses in the state capital must hold the imperial court tiger talisman. If there is no tiger talisman, no one who has no way will not be edicted.
It is still excusable for Jizhou Mu Zhu Jun to transfer troops into Youzhou, and He Jin, the general in Luoyang, did not report to the emperor at this time, so he transferred soldiers without authorization, which was already very inconsistent with the rules of the imperial court.
"The emperor is now uncertain, but the war cannot be delayed, as long as you can restore peace in Youzhou, I am willing to risk the disapproval of the world." What He Jin said was righteous and righteous words.
"Thank you so much, General." Zhao Yun thanked He Jin, for Zhao Yun, as long as Zhao Yi was saved, he didn't care whether He Jin risked the world's condemnation.
He Jin waved his hand to signal Zhao Yun not to be polite: "My move is not for your son, but for the sake of a talent of my Han Dynasty and for the millions of people in Youzhou." "It's bigger, it's for the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Watching the hundreds of officials of the court walk out of the court, He Jin sighed: "Now that the eunuchs are dictatorial, and most of the officials in the court are people who deceive the world and steal their reputations, it would be good if I could have a few talents like Bolai and loyal ministers like adults." When he said this, He Jin glanced at Zhao Yun.
The strange gaze in He Jin's eyes was automatically ignored by Zhao Yun. Since Zhao Yizhan came to the fore, He Jin and Zhang Rang have never given up on wooing themselves, He Jin's wooing is relatively dark, but Zhang Rang is different, and he is not shy about befriending Zhao Yun at all.
Zhao Yun, who was Shangshu's right servant, had to use Zhao Yi's methods, left and right, and seemed to be very close to them, but there was nothing substantial.
Seeing that Zhao Yun did not show his attitude, He Jin's face did not change, but he scolded secretly in his heart, old fox. Zhao Yun and their father and son have one way.
This made He Jin not know how to start, with a soft one, Zhao Yun's father and son also smiled at each other, but they were not inclined to themselves. He Jin didn't dare to use the hard one, for fear that the size would not be well grasped, which would make Zhao Yun and his son want to make the camp.
"The emperor is overly favored by the ten permanent servants, and almost all the government is handed over to Zhang Rang and others to deal with, the emperor is now at fault, we can't make mistakes as courtiers, otherwise this big Han country will collapse." Saying that, He Jin said goodbye to Zhao Yun and walked out of the harem, "Lord Zhao, please go back, this official will also teach the words of the sage who rules the country and the world of the great prince." ”
He Jin's words made Zhao Yun's heart tremble, and his face showed a look of shock.
