Chapter 302: Jizhou Soldiers and Horses

"Oh?" Zhao Yi was stunned, and hurriedly asked Dian Wei, "Who is the surname of the strong man, and what official position does he have in Hedong County?" ”

Dian Wei explained the situation of the strong man in detail: "The last general got the news from Zuo Feng, the strong man's surname is Xu Minghuang, and he is a small official in Hedong County, and he was sent by the Hedong County Guard to escort the tax and silver because of his bravery. Dian Wei didn't say anything more about what happened after that, because Zhao Yi already knew. After beating Zuo Feng in the downtown area, he ran out of Luoyang.

"Xu Huang?!" Zhao Yi was surprised when he heard this name, this is also one of the famous generals of the Three Kingdoms, he has fought with Guan Yu and other famous tiger generals, he is a rare fierce general, and more importantly, this Xu Huang is also a little resourceful, which is the most rare among generals.

This kind of talent is known by Zhao Yi, if he can't take it for his own use, Zhao Yi will not give up. Zhao Yi rubbed his hands excitedly, his face was full of joy, but he was still a little worried, if Xu Huang was afraid of Zuo Feng's revenge and resigned after returning to Hedong County, what should he do?

And Zhao Yi has a lot of things to do in the court now, and there are 60,000 Jizhou soldiers outside the city who need to be settled, Zhao Yi really can't leave, if he can, Zhao Yi can't wait to fly to Hedong County to wait for Xu Huang now, but now that the night has passed, Xu Huang is now only afraid that he will be hundreds of miles away, maybe he has arrived in Hedong County now, and everything is too late.

Zhao Yi took two steps back and forth, and waved his hand to let Dian Wei come over: "General Dian Wei, you go to Hedong County to deliver a message, just say that he must leave Xu Huang behind." It is said that Xu Huang played a vital role in this expedition to the west. ”

This is also one of Zhao Yi's means of digging people, as long as Zhao Yi pretends to trust the emperor's will, Xu Huang will not dare to resign, even if Xu Huang's parents are dead under the pretext of keeping filial piety and unwilling to be an official, Zhao Yi can also use the border gate to urgently restore Xu Huang's love, in this case, unless Xu Huang commits suicide, otherwise he can't avoid this matter.

Dian Wei responded, and after saying goodbye to Zhao Yi, he immediately turned his head and rode his horse to Hedong County, Zhao Yi stared at Dian Wei and disappeared in front of his eyes, Zhao Yi smiled at the corner of his mouth, now many famous generals have not been discovered, Zhao Yi's biggest reliance is to take advantage of the fact that these virtuous generals have not been discovered, he will take advantage of these virtuous generals to take advantage of the first, and take these virtuous generals under his command and serve himself.

Xu Huang is naturally also the object of Zhao Yi's wooing, Zhao Yi's mind turned a few times, thinking about what to say when he saw Xu Huang. After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Yi smiled bitterly, and said in his heart that he didn't know if Xu Huang could find it, and it was indeed too early for him to think about these things now.

Zhao Yi cleaned up his mood and went outside the city, when the two soldiers and horses of Youzhou and Jizhou jointly dealt with Qiangqu, the soldiers and horses of Jizhou stayed in Youzhou for more than 20 days, and the generals and leaders of the two sides were already very familiar with each other, so they didn't need to be polite at all.

This time leading the Jizhou soldiers and horses was a captain surnamed Luo, after this captain saw Zhao Yi, he immediately bowed and saluted, and when he raised his eyes to look at Zhao Yi, his eyes were full of awe and reverence. On that day, the battle with Qiangqu was just that, this captain stayed with Zhu Jun on the outskirts of Guangning City, and was very familiar with the battle of Guangning. He admired Zhao Yi's wit and resourcefulness very much, so he explained his attitude as soon as he opened his mouth: "Lord Muzhu of Jizhou has an order, after the army arrives in Luoyang, the command will be handed over to Lord Zhao." ”

When he spoke, Captain Luo also took out a token from his arms, saying that this was the Jizhou Prefecture Token that Zhu Jun instructed him to hand over to Zhao Yi, and seeing this token was like Zhu Jun coming in person.

Zhu Jun's actions have shown that he has handed over these 60,000 soldiers to Zhao Yi, and Zhao Yi has supreme power in front of these 60,000 soldiers, and it can be said that Zhao Yi holds the power of life and death of these soldiers. Hearing Zhu Jun's words, Zhao Yi was very moved in his heart, at present, what can fully support Zhao Yi in the imperial court is probably only the comrades-in-arms who killed the Yellow Turban Army in the past.

Captain Luo also brought Zhu Jun's handwritten letter, and teased Zhao Yi at the beginning, saying that when he returned to Jizhou, he had already guessed that there would be a battle between Zhao Yi and Beigong Boyu, and now that the imperial court has made a will, it can be seen that Zhu Jun guessed well at that time. Later, he explained in detail the methods of Beigong Boyu to use troops, and then hoped that Zhao Yi could defeat Beigong Boyu, so as to remove this confidant for the imperial court and shame for the officials and soldiers of Jizhou.

Zhao Yi secretly sighed, and solemnly put the letter on his chest: "Please rest assured General Luo, this official will definitely live up to Lord Zhu's trust." After that, Zhao Yi commanded Captain Luo to camp outside Luoyang City.

Now the Jizhou soldiers and horses have arrived, but the 30,000 soldiers in Qingzhou and Xuzhou and the 50,000 soldiers in Yangzhou have not yet arrived.

The incident of 60,000 soldiers in Jizhou supporting Zhao Yi caused an uproar in the imperial court, although these soldiers were ordered by Zhu Jun, but Zhao Yi still became the center of the incident.

He Jin's attitude and reaction to this matter were different from some court officials, what he valued was the relationship between Zhang Rang and Zhu Jun, and it can be seen from Zhu Jun's two transfers of troops to help Zhao Yi that the two had a great relationship. Although Zhu Jun had already written a recital to the imperial court after these two incidents, these two times Zhu Jun did the matter before he said it.

Especially this time, 60,000 soldiers and horses arrived at the city of Luoyang, and Zhu Jun's recital came. In this way, Zhu Jun did not give the court a chance to choose at all, the soldiers had already arrived in the city, what else could the emperor do? Let these 60,000 soldiers go home, then not only will they lose a large part of their property, but more importantly, they will hurt their morale.

Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty could only say one sentence after seeing the folds: "Shame and courage, I am waiting for the celebration wine with your Jizhou army." "Agreed that Jizhou soldiers and horses would send troops to recruit Beigong Boyu.

Hearing the emperor's decision, He Jin's heart was a little more worried, originally He Jin wanted to let Zhao Yi, Sun Jian and Cao Cao fight each other, and defeat the handsome discord to Beigong Boyu, so He Jin can use this matter to instigate the hundred officials in the court and pull Zhao Yi off the horse.

However, after seeing the actions of Jizhou's soldiers and horses, He Jin felt that it would be too difficult to realize this matter. The relationship between Zhu Jun and Zhao Yi has long surpassed that of colleagues, and is more like an alliance linked to interests.

After adding these 60,000 soldiers, Zhao Yi's strength increased greatly, and his chances of winning against Beigong Boyu were much greater. However, even if Zhao Yi fails, He Jin wants to remove Zhao Yi from office, but I am afraid that it will not be so easy. If the means are too urgent, and Zhao Yi, who has been forced into the Jedi, suddenly embarks on the path of rebellion, then the imperial court will be in danger.

If Zhao Yi raises troops to rebel, the ten ** generals of Youzhou will follow Zhao Yi, and eighty percent of the 80,000 soldiers in Youzhou will also follow Zhao Yi.

And Zhao Yi now has a very good personal relationship with Jizhou Mu Zhu Jun, if it is said that Zhu Jun rebels together, the consequences will be unimaginable. At that time, Zhao Yi will have Youzhou and Jizhou in his hands, and he will have 200,000 soldiers, and he will already have the strength to fight against the imperial court. This is much more terrible than the Yellow Turban Rebellion that day.

What He Jin is thinking about now is not how to trample Zhao Yi under his feet, but how to break the relationship between Zhu Jun and Zhao Yi, now that Zhao Yi has served as the general of Zhengxi, He Jin and Zhang Rang dare not touch Zhao Yi in this limelight. "Since you can't move Zhao Yi, how about getting rid of Zhu Jun first?"

Thinking of this, He Jin's eyes suddenly lit up, although in addition to the last attack on Beigong Boyu, Zhu Jun returned in vain, there was no handle in He Jin's hands. However, compared to Zhao Yi, Zhu Jun is indeed much easier to deal with.

In the court, Zhao Yi saw that He Jin and Zhang Rang's faces were different, and he roughly guessed what they were thinking, so after retreating from the court, Zhao Yi immediately wrote a handwritten letter to Zhu Jun, telling Zhu Jun to be careful in his future actions, so as not to be caught by He Jin and Zhang Rang.

Since the soldiers and horses of Jizhou entered Luoyang, He Jin and Zhang Rang have been a lot quieter in the past two days, and they will look for Zhao Yi in the future. Zhao Yi was able to stabilize himself, he had been training outside the city for the past two days, and when he came back at night, he told Chen about his affairs in Youzhou.

Zhao Yun couldn't sit still, called Zhao Yi into the study, and explained the current situation to Zhao Yi in detail: "The soldiers and horses of Jizhou came to Luoyang, although it increased the chances of winning the Western Expedition, but it also buried hidden dangers. You and Lord Zhu should be careful. ”

For this matter, Zhao Yi already had a plan in his heart. He only said: "This matter is easy to handle, as long as we grasp the military power in our hands, He Jin and Zhang Rang will not do anything." ”

As soon as Zhao Yi said this, Zhao Yun, who had been walking in the court for many years, immediately understood what Zhao Yi meant. Zhao Yi is threatening the imperial court, as long as the military power is in his own hands, then He Jin and Zhang Rang will have concerns.

"It's a real solution, but it's not sustainable." Zhao Yun sighed, "The two of you are still in the imperial court, so the imperial court has the power to appoint and dismiss the heads of generals, if He Jin and Zhang Rang send their henchmen and generals to serve in Youzhou and Jizhou, what should you do?" ”

Now Zhao Yi is doing a good job, making Youzhou an iron plate, but if there is a drop of water on this iron plate, then it will rust and even corrode. Unless Zhao Yi cuts off all the passages between Youzhou and the imperial court, so that Youzhou hangs lonely outside the country, and it can be preserved for a period of time, if the door is wide open, and the court officials enter the Youzhou camp to serve, I am afraid that it will not take two or three years, and it will disturb the military heart of the Youzhou camp, and Youzhou will be self-defeating. If the situation in Youzhou is chaotic and the imperial court takes advantage of the situation to attack, Zhao Yi and Zhu Jun will die miserably.

Zhao Yun is worthy of being an old official who has been walking in the court for many years, although he doesn't say much, but he is to the point, although he is not as good as Zhao Yi in the marching army, but Zhao Yun is very familiar with the open and secret battles between court officials.

Listening to Zhao Yun's words, the indifferent expression on Zhao Yi's face immediately changed, what Zhao Yun said Zhao Yi really didn't expect, he frowned, thinking about how to deal with this matter.
