Chapter 942: Calculations by all parties
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
Wu Han returned to the Great Sima Mansion, and he was joined by Geng Yi and Gai Yan.
Entering the lobby, everyone sat down.
Wu Han asked his subordinates to make tea, and after the tea was boiled, he poured three cups and beckoned to Geng Yi and Gai Yan, who were sitting on both sides. The two got up, walked to Wu Han, and sat cross-legged.
Between them, there are not so many etiquette and rules, and they sit very casually. Gaiyan picked up the teacup, took a sip, pursed his lips, put the teacup down, and stopped drinking.
Wu Han smiled and asked, "Juqing wants to drink?" ”
Gai Yan looked at Geng Yi and said, "Da Sima, let's talk about it first, let's invite me and Bo Zhao to the mansion!" ”
Wu Han first hummed, then fell silent, and after a while, he said slowly: "Juqing and Bo Zhao think that Kui Huan will be opposed? ”
Gai Yan and Geng Yi looked at each other, and the latter picked up the teacup and drank all the tea in it, which was still very hot and flowed into his throat as if it were scraped by a knife.
He played with the empty cup in his hand and said, "It's no secret that Kui Huan has long been against it. ”
Wu Han asked, "Then why hasn't he rebelled now?" Gai Yan answered: "First, I don't dare, and second, my strength is not enough. "If your side is unfavorable in the Eastern Front battlefield, and Zhang Bu has won a few big battles, and the Jingshi army of the imperial court has let Zhang Bu be contained, Kui Huan may really rebel,
But the problem is that Zhang Bu's forces are completely vulnerable, they have been beaten by Geng Yi and have no power to fight back, and now they have been forced to surrender and submit to the imperial court.
Wu Han continued: "Therefore, Kui Huan is not against now, just because he is not strong enough, and when he accumulates enough strength, in the future, sooner or later, he will still have to rebel." ”
Gai Yan and Geng Yi nodded together, indicating that Wu Han was right.
Wu Han said quietly: "Instead of waiting for the day when he has accumulated enough strength to rebel and then send troops to destroy him, it is better to send troops to destroy him now." ”
Gai Yan slapped his thigh and said: "The problem is that the ministers in the court and the central government don't think so, even the right general thinks that it is not appropriate to use troops now, and Your Majesty still listens to the right general the most." ”
Geng Yi spread his hands and said helplessly: "What can you and I do the same?" ”
Wu Han looked at the two of them, the corners of his mouth hooked, and said, "It's man-made." ”
Geng Yi and Gai Yan were both stunned, looked at Wu Han in surprise, and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”
"Zhang Bu surrendered, there is no war in the east, and Kui Huan himself should also know that the imperial court will soon shift its attention to the west. Juqing and Bo Zhao think that what will Kui Huan do next? ”
Gai Yan rubbed his forehead and remained silent.
Geng Yi rolled his eyes and said: "In order to gain time, Kui Huan will definitely send an envoy to Luoyang to circulate, hoping to stabilize the imperial court, so that he can get enough time to prepare for the rebellion." ”
Wu Han nodded repeatedly, patted Geng Yi's arm, and said with a smile: "Bo Zhao is very good. ”
Gai Yan smiled bitterly and said: "The ministers of the DPRK and the central government are already war-weary, if the envoy of Kui Huan comes to Luoyang again, it will make the ministers believe that Kui Huan has no intention of rebelling, and the ministers will be even more opposed to the use of troops against Liangzhou." ”
Geng Yi sighed, with a look of helplessness.
Wu Han said with a smile: "What if the envoy of Kui Huan arrives in Luoyang and is suddenly killed? ”
Hearing this, Gai Yan and Geng Yi were both shocked in their hearts, and looked at Wu Han with a shocked expression.
After a long while, Gai Yan asked in a low voice, "What does Da Sima mean, let's do it ourselves and ...... the messenger of Kui" He didn't say anything, but made a downward gesture.
Geng Yi shuddered and said, "If Your Majesty knows about this, we will ...... How do we explain ......"
Wu Han said expressionlessly: "Then act secretly, and don't let Your Majesty know." Taking a step back, it doesn't hurt even if Your Majesty knows, we are acting like this for the sake of the Han Dynasty, and Your Majesty can understand. ”
To carry the Son of Heaven behind his back and secretly kill the messenger of Kui, only Wu Han dares to say this kind of thing, and only Wu Han dares to do this kind of thing. Geng Yi and Gai Yan glanced at each other and lowered their heads in unison.
The lobby was silent, so quiet that you could hear your own heartbeat.
After waiting for a long time, Wu Han suddenly patted the table and said, "I invited the two of you to come to the house, not for the two of you to pretend to be stupid, but to say something!" ”
Gai Yan muttered in a low voice, "What did Da Sima tell us to say?" ”
Wu Han frowned and asked, "To do it, or not to do it?" ”
Gai Yangang raised his head and lowered it again. As for Geng Yi, he didn't raise his head at all.
Wu Han snorted angrily twice, and said: "It's true that the official is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more people in charge, but the courage is getting smaller and smaller. ”
Geng Yi was the youngest and the youngest, and when he heard Wu Han's words, he slapped the table and said, "Just do it, how can I, Geng Yi, be a person who is afraid of things?" ”
When Wu Han heard this, his eyes crooked with a smile, and then he immediately turned his head to look at Gai Yan on the other side. Gai Yan also had a fiery temper, muttered for a moment, and slapped the table, saying, "I'll do it with Da Sima!" ”
"Very good!" Wu Han was overjoyed, slapped his face, and saw more than a dozen black-clothed people swishing out of the courtyard outside the lobby.
After these black-clothed people appeared, they all walked to the door of the lobby, knelt on one knee, intervened in the salute, and said in unison: "Subordinates see Da Sima!" ”
Geng Yi and Gai Yan were stunned and asked puzzledly, "Da Sima, who are they?" ”
Wu Han said with a smile: "These brothers are all elite people carefully selected by me in the army, and they are all loyal to the country. As long as the messengers come to Luoyang, these brothers will definitely be able to let them come and go! ”
Looking at these black-clothed people in the courtyard, Geng Yi and Gai Yan realized that Wu Han had already started to prepare, and he had already pointed the finger at Kui Huan.
Wu Han and Geng Yi really guessed correctly, Kui Huan really sent an envoy to Luoyang. Gongsun Shu didn't want to live in a corner, only occupied Yizhou, and Feng Yi was stationed in the Sanfu area, he suffered several big losses in a row, and the soldiers were innumerable, so he didn't dare to attack rashly, so he started the idea of Nanjun. However, Nanjun is garrisoned by Cen Peng, and it is not easy to fight
Although there were no results, the Shu army still attacked and harassed Nanjun one after another, which made Cen Peng and even the Luoyang court tireless.
Liu Xiu sent a message to Kui Huan, asking him to send troops from Tianshui in Liangzhou to attack Shu, so as to contain Gongsun Shu's soldiers and horses, so that Gongsun Shu could no longer attack Nanjun.
After receiving Liu Xiu's edict, Kui Huan sneered in his heart. Liu Xiu is taking himself as the first bird, let himself contain Gongsun Shu, he Liu Xiu is good at enjoying the benefits of a fisherman, how can there be such a good thing in the world?
For Liu Xiu's edict, Kui Huan was very angry, but he didn't dare to openly break with Liu Xiu, so he could only shirk it for various reasons and reply to Liu Xiu that he could not use troops against Shu for various reasons.
Of course, this kind of reply alone is not enough, Kui Huan sent a messenger to Luoyang, one is to show Liu Xiu that he has absolutely no disobedience, and the other is to lobby the ministers in Luoyang, so that the ministers can help him speak. As long as you can buy the minister of Luoyang, let the minister of Luoyang persuade Liu Xiu not to make trouble against Liangzhou, then, no matter how much money is spent, it is
It's worth it.
The envoy of Kui Huan came to Luoyang with a lot of money and many treasures, and he first went to the palace to meet Liu Xiu.
In front of Liu Xiu, the envoy's words and Kui Huan's reply were basically the same tone, showing with various reasons and excuses that Liangzhou was now unable to mobilize troops and horses.
The envoy also repeatedly added that Kui Huan had absolutely no disobedience to the Son of Heaven, and as long as Liangzhou got the right opportunity, he would definitely follow the will of the Son of Heaven and launch an offensive against Gongsun Shu.
Liu Xiu didn't want to use troops against Liangzhou, but Kui Huan did too much.
He kept saying that he would surrender to the Son of Heaven and be loyal to the Han family, but he took Liu Xiu's edict as a fart, and repeatedly resisted and disobeyed the order, which made Liu Xiu still seem to be able to tolerate Kui's hustle?
In front of the envoy, Liu Xiu also said some words of praise for Kui Huan, such as Kui Huan can be loyal to the Han family, understand the righteousness, like Kui Huan is quite talented, and governs Liangzhou in an orderly manner, etc.
But from beginning to end, Liu Xiu never showed a few smiling faces, and her face was gloomy.
He is clearly showing the messenger of Kui Huan that he is now very dissatisfied with Kui Huan's repeated resistance to the decree, and if Kui Huan does not act in accordance with the holy decree, then the anger of the Son of Heaven is not something that he can afford to bear.
Liu Xiu showed his heart to the envoy through his expression and attitude, which frightened the envoy a lot. After leaving the palace, the envoy went non-stop to visit the dignitaries in Luoyang.
Kui Huan also has his own dark pile eyeliner in Luoyang, and the envoy knows a little about the lord and faction of the Luoyang court. The first thing he visited was Deng Yu.
Knowing that the envoy came to visit, Deng Yu treated him politely and asked the envoy to be invited into the lobby, and he personally received him. Through the door of the lobby, you can see several large boxes placed in the courtyard outside.
Deng Yu didn't have any extra nonsense, and asked bluntly: "What did the envoy of Zhou (the messenger's name is Zhou Fang) bring?" ”
Zhou Fang hurriedly waved his hand to the people in the courtyard, and the people opened the lid of the box, and there were golden cakes inside. Seeing this, Deng Yu frowned and asked, "What does this mean?" "The general has admired General Right for a long time, and often wants to visit Luoyang in person, but he has not been able to withdraw, and the general often sighs about this. The general knew that the right general was working hard in the court, so he entrusted the villain to send some gifts and Liangzhou
The specialty came over, and I hope that the right general will smile. Zhou Fang said with a smile on his face. Deng Yu looked at Zhou Fang, for a long time, he smiled indifferently, stood up, walked out of the lobby, and came to the courtyard outside, he took out a heavy gold cake from a box, and said with a smile: "It seems that Liangzhou is very rich, and the specialties are all there."
These are the things. ”
When Zhou Fang heard this, he looked embarrassed, rubbed his hands and said, "General Right, this is just a little bit of the general's mind......"
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Deng Yu's face sank, threw the gold cake back into the box, and said in a deep voice: "Such a generous gift, I, Deng Yu, can't afford it, where did the Zhou envoy get it, just send it back!" Drop-off! ”
After speaking, Deng Yu waved the sleeves of his robe and left.
Zhou Fang never expected that he would bring so much gold, Deng Yu just glanced at it, then he was furious, brushed his sleeves away, and confiscated not a single gold.
He also wanted to catch up and explain that the guards of the Right General's Mansion had stopped him, and with an unkind look on his face, he waved his hand and said, "Envoy Zhou, please!" ”
Under the push and pull of many guards, Zhou Fang was driven out of the Right General's Mansion. When he stood outside the gate, his head was confused, and he didn't know what he had done wrong, or what he had done wrong.
Deng Yu is obviously a minister who opposes Luoyang's use of troops in Liangzhou, which shows that he is inclined to the general, and now the general has given him so much gold, why does it make Deng Yu unhappy? Shouldn't he gladly accept it?
Zhou Fang made a mistake about a fundamental problem, Deng Yu opposed Luoyang to send troops to Liangzhou, but it was not that he was eager to be arrogant, Deng Yu just thought that he should recuperate, and it was not suitable for continuous use of troops, which would cost the people and money. Deng Yu didn't have a good impression of this person, he felt that this person was two-faced and changeable, even if the court did not use troops against him now, he would definitely not be able to keep this person in the future.
