Section 8 Bait and Selection

Guo Jia was hangover in bed, and Duan Wanrong really didn't want to wake him up.

However, if this kind of military affairs is not handled in a timely manner, there will be serious penalties and consequences. Duan Wanrong didn't dare to hesitate, went back to the house and shouted to wake up Guo Jia, give him a hot bowl of soup, and kept telling him when he went out: "Remember to ask for a bowl of hot rice to eat, what do you think of him Dia Bird, you are weak, just eat when you listen to them, if he Dia Niao is not even willing to give you a bowl of hot rice, my sister will go to him another day and settle accounts for him." ”

Dia Bird is not necessarily there, Guo Jia covered his stomach and only smiled.

As the wheels turned, his expression became more and more serious. In accordance with normal procedures, there are its own ways of reporting military intelligence. Although the political hall is composed of businessmen, politicians, soldiers, peasants, and workers and representatives of various ethnic groups, the general cabinet and the chief officer of the military and political affairs are in charge of the military situation, and they will not be handed over to the political hall before they have a specific proposition, which is also the embodiment of the separation of the military and the government.

The person who informs you doesn't know what's going on, even if you know a little more.

Guo Jia's first reaction was that the Jingkang court would fight without declaring it...... But he quickly overturned this speculation, and it could not be the Jingkang court. Such a behemoth will not have no warning at all, and Jingkang is close, whether it is from Beizhou or Dengzhou, there will be news outside Yuyang City. But if it's not Jingkang, who will it be? The infestation of small tribes in remote areas will not be like this urgently.

Gao Xian?

At present, the relationship between Dongxia and Gao Xian is getting better day by day, and the Huangnan passage is given to them, and it is unlikely that a war will break out.

Mobei?

That's only Mobei?

Di Axiao was recalled by the Eastern Xia court, which was a turmoil in the northern country, and according to this logic, the enemy soldiers suddenly counterattacked......

It's entirely possible.

It may even be that he Di Axiao did it himself, and he has been in business for a few years, and he doesn't want to leave, so if you transfer me away, I will concoct a war for you to see if I can be missing.

Compared with the former, Guo Jia is more worried about the latter. Thinking of Di Axiao's performance last night, he asked why here, which seemed a little abnormal. You must know that the transfer of Di Axiao only belongs to the transfer of ordinary generals, the military government system in Dongxia is very mature, and the transfer at the top is not a big deal in Dongxia. In the Gaonu War, Dia Niao intended to change the commander, he promised Niu Liujin and Di Ah Xiao, saying that if they succeeded in changing the commander, it would be of great significance to Dongxia, and as for what the meaning was, he would tell them in the future. Later, the battle of Gaonu came to a successful end, although Dia Bird did not tell everyone about this matter clearly, but who knows if he told Di Ah Xiao and Niu Liujin alone?

Anyway, he was satisfied, which increased the arbitrariness of his change of generals and increased his control over the entire army, especially during the war.

If Dia Xiaozhen chooses to provoke a war in order to resist the exchange of his elder brother, then the crisis will not only be a threat to the northern country brought by the Tuhu Special Department, but also involve the country, and even cause trouble to Xiao Wall.

As soon as he arrived, Guo Jia was looking for Di Axiao's escort or carriage.

To his disappointment, Diaxiao's guards or carriages did not appear, and if there was a notice, no one else knew.

It's either a coincidence, or it's a clue.

Why?

If the war was arranged by him Di Axiao, he would pretend not to know, and even he would pretend to be sick and ask people to invite him and ask his brother to drive him back to the north.

But if he doesn't come, he can't pick out the thorn from a certain angle, he has been away for a long time, and he is not in the political hall, and the political hall gathers people to discuss, what is he doing?

Guo Jia's eyelids jumped.

As soon as I entered, Xie Shilling was there, and Shi Wenqing was also there, these are all old ministers, it will only be early, not late, Nalan Shanxiong was not able to come...... Desan did not come. It doesn't matter whether they come or not, basically they don't care, and they come to show their attitude, and in recent years, Nalan Shanxiong's health has deteriorated, and when the season comes, he goes to his various manors to raise his body, and Di Nanan is even more self-aware and blindly fades out of people's sight.

De Tun Tai is here.

Doctor Wei Yang of Wuyang has also arrived.

In recent years, there have been many newcomers.

For this reason, some old people will sometimes complain about this, saying that they are okay, and the king will blindly change to new blood. However, they only stop at complaining, the newcomers who come up often have their own remarkable characteristics and political achievements, in order to be recognized by the whole country, and Dia Bird still retains the old people who have been born and died together, as long as the talent is not weak, the work is conscientious, the order is always above the newcomer, more respected.

Dr. Wuyang is an exception.

When Dia Bird was in Changyue City, he entered the palace to meet the emperor, spoke for the first emperor Qin Fen, and was detained in front of the palace gate, it happened that a small official named Wei Yang also broke into the palace and admonished, so that the emperor should treat Gao Jue well, at that time this was very sensitive, the emperor wanted to reform the system, to degrade Gao Jue, to reduce their treatment, but also to select talents, and even buy and sell Gao Jue to solve the financial income, you speak at this time, it is equivalent to being instructed by Gao Jue's forces...... What's more, what else is said is that Gao Jue is the foundation of the imperial court.

At that time, the emperor gave him a lesson to his chief officer, and Diao hung an ear to remember his name. Later, Dia Bird went west to conquer Chen State, and wanted to dig up some talents, but it was not very ideal, and there were many talents here who could not enter Di Anaiao's eyes, including Wang Meng, who had a high reputation in Chen State. He found that it was difficult for these people to fit in with the Great Xia Law, and he invited the corporal to come back, if it was difficult to match, he would be saddled with the notoriety of disrespecting talents if he didn't use it, so he was cautious and didn't bring many talents back.

On his way back, passing through Lingwu, Jingkang sent prisoners to fill the border, but Wei Yang was among them, and was assigned to serve as a lowly servant on the edge of the Wang River, Dia Niao somehow got the news that Wei Yang was in this batch of exiled prisoners, remembering his impression of Wei Yang back then, he took five sheep to the local Jingkang official in charge of reclamation and brought them back to Yuyang.

When he returned to Yuyang, he summoned Wei Yang every day for several days, and then consulted and talked until late at night.

Soon, he promoted Wei Yang to record books in the political affairs hall, and he was treated as a 9-level knight.

Two months later, he promoted Wei Yang to the chief officer of the Lifan Division, with the same rank of 13 ranks. A year later, he promoted Wei Yang to Yuyang Order. Three years later, Wei Yang had already entered the political hall, known as the Five Sheep Doctor, a cheap doctor who was exchanged for the five sheep of the king. No matter what people outside joked, Guo Jia knew why he was valued by Dia Bird, knew what he had done in the past few years, and knew that it was this person who once again established the title system of Dongxia.

After returning from the Western Expedition, there were more domestic jazz.

Dia Niao regarded how to manage the lord as the foundation of Dongxia, and issued several edicts, requiring the local people to reward military merits without delay, requiring the local people to cash in the field as soon as possible, posthumously recognizing the pension, and requiring the integration of the management of the title, the local nationality, and the filing of the imperial court...... There is Dia Bird's willingness to treat Gao Jue well, and there is also Wei Yang Lifan's idea in it, Di Ah Niao accepted his idea of Gao Jue as the country's foundation, anyway, in Eastern Xia, the title is not hereditary.

In terms of the army, Zhao Guozai, Wu Banzai, Yuyang Animal Husbandry Supervisor Tuli Niu Zai, and Lieutenant Li Sihun...... Compared with Wenchen, military generals are much more stable in terms of personnel.

Literati need more talent to do things.

Warriors are guarded by their side, and loyalty is even more needed.

Guo Jia came in, didn't care about responding to their greetings, rushed straight to Zhao Guo's side, and asked in a low voice, "Where is the war?" Isn't it north? Is it called Marshal Axiao? ”

Zhao Guo nodded and said softly: "He is drunk and has suffered a little cold, so I'm afraid he won't be able to come." ”

Guo Jia was worried.

Everyone sat down and took a look.

Waiting for everyone to sit down, Zhao Guo signaled, Wu Ban immediately got up and spoke: "Marshal A Xiao moved, the Tuhut people also moved, just as soon as he left, he launched a large-scale attack, in the past few days, the three county flags in Lingxi were all broken, and the Tuhut people pointed directly at Qiqihat, the intention is obvious, it is to go to Beijing, and the north is in an emergency." I don't know if I can get support from the north Heishui side, Marshal Niu Liujin led an army of 20,000 to support, halfway? He hesitated for a moment and said, "There are people among the fierce people who have an incident, and it is not clear whether it is also a stenographic department." ”

The crowd asked, "What about the king?" What about the kings? ”

Zhao Guo shook his head.

Guo Jia sighed.

He also looked at Zhao Guo.

At this time, I was afraid that only Zhao Guo had the right to speak, but Zhao Guo did not speak.

Finally, someone began to be silent and asked again: "Where is the king?" Where did the king go? ”

Someone else said on the side: "This is obviously a collusion between inside and outside, taking advantage of Marshal Axiao's return to the south, to capture Tongjing in one fell swoop and cut off our ties with the north." I haven't seen the king in the early dynasty recently, where have the others gone, and what should I do if he is not there if such a big thing happens? ”

Zhao Guo said: "The king is on the way back to Yuyang, the matter is urgent, I hope you will come up with a solution first to alleviate the situation." ”

Li Sihun didn't think about it and said: "We can't hope for the army in Beiheishui, although there is no shortage of generals, but General Zhang Fenqing has not experienced too many major battles, if the enemy has already defeated Qiqihat and besieged Tongjing, we will no longer be able to contact and command the army in the north, only relying on the 20,000 people of Marshal Niu Liujin, I am afraid that we will not be able to respond to the enemy, not to mention that the scale of the fierce rebellion is not clear." ”

Everyone nodded.

Finally, someone said: "It is best to immediately mobilize the troops around Yuyang, quickly extinguish the rebellion, and find the Tuhut people for a decisive battle." ”

Zhao Guo spoke again.

Like the rock of Zhenguo, he only replied at the juncture: "Except for the king, no one can mobilize Yuyang's army." ”

De Sutai hesitated for a moment and said, "What about the right?" ”

The crowd immediately looked forward to it.

yes.

If Tongjing is cut off by the Tuhuts, and a large number of fierce people cannot be extinguished in time, the problem will be big.

Zhao Guo turned his eyes to the past and said categorically: "There is no subordination." ”

The crowd fell into deep thought.

Someone else asked: "Do you want to borrow troops from Gao Xian?" ”

There is no way to do this, to say some unreliable claims, is Gao Xian's soldiers so easy to borrow?

Zhao Guo looked at Guo Jia.

Before Guo Jia could speak, a minister from Dingzhou said in a deep voice: "Marshal A Xiao is known as a prestige among the northerners, and he is familiar with the real situation of the northerners, so Marshal A Xiao should be allowed to go back to the town and not be transferred for the time being." ”

Guo Jia's heart was cold.

This person is from Dingzhou, Di Axiao has been in Dingzhou, and he has a close relationship with this person on weekdays, he proposed this, could it be that Di Axiao instructed him behind his back?

Zhao Guo also hesitated.

He was weighing whether it would be better to rush to the town by himself or let Di Axiao go back to the town.

There was a cough at the door of the government hall.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and Di Axiao appeared.

He drank a lot of wine last night, and he was indeed infected with the wind and cold, and his face was a little pale.

He came, smiled at everyone, and said, "I had a splitting headache last night, and the guards stopped me, and I received the news at dawn, so I hurried over." ”

He strode forward and walked all the way to Zhao Guo's side.

Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief.

Di Axiao said in a deep voice: "The Tuhut people are not as good as before, and this time they rushed straight to Tongjing, which is to hope that a large number of fierce people will rise up together to respond." And when I came back from Tongjing, some of the fierce leaders would naturally be able to know. So I conclude that this is a premeditated internal and external collusion. The gravity of the situation is beyond imagination. Do you want me to go back to town? I thought about it, but after thinking about it, it still didn't quite fit. ”

In the attention of everyone, he whispered: "If I go back, I can naturally suppress the rebellion and repel the Tuhute, but ......" His eyes showed a cold light, his tone sank, and said: "The Tuhut people are cunning, and it is not easy to pursue in the desert, if we use Tongjing as a bait, will it be done once and for all?" ”

Zhao Guo gave a light high-five.

Perhaps the general also thought about this section, and only then did he high-five and applaud before others reacted.

Sit and watch the erosion?

Everyone couldn't react for a while?

Wu Ban also affirmed it, and said: "As long as Marshal Niu Liujin can control the state of affairs of the rebellion, this rebellion, the fierce people are bound to be deeply involved, but most of the fierce people are still in our Eastern Xia, are there any fierce Zats among you." ”

A minister raised his hand.

He objected, saying: "I am a Mamozat, and I am against Marshal Axiao's approach, if we do this, how many will we Mamzats have to die?" ”

Guo Jia got up and said, "You are also the clan of Master Yeqing." What will become of the Mengzat, we don't count it, it's better for us to let the army escort you back overnight, you try to contact the vassals and people loyal to our Eastern Xia, as long as they don't mess up and get close to the army of Niu Liujin, there will not be too many innocent casualties. ”

This man did not refuse, but touched his chest and said, "It is incumbent upon him." Please give me three things. ”

Everyone was amazed.

This humanitarian: "First, the jade seal of the country. ”

Everyone was stunned.

Again, he said, "Portrait of the King's Mother." ”

Everyone let out an "ah".

The man finally said, "The king's son." ”

The faces of the people turned ugly, and they suspected that this person did not really go back to persuade the Mamzhat people.

The man himself felt it, and whispered, "I am a Mamzat." I learned some rumors among my relatives, which were supposed to be a big deal, but after thinking about it, I still felt that I had to take it seriously and tell everyone. ”

Diaxiao demanded, "Please speak." ”

The man said: "It is rumored that the king has the blood of the Mamzezat, and has the jade seal of the country in his hand, and his mother is the last princess of our Mamjanzat. You all know that. In the past few years, because some people among the Mamzhat people are restless, they spread rumors that the king has no blood of the Mammoth people at all, and that is to rule the Mamjanzat, and he deceives people, although he has obtained the jade seal of the country in his hand, in fact, the jade seal of the country has spirituality and was taken away by an eagle...... Originally, these rumors had been extinguished, but they were still spreading secretly, saying that the king was now using his life to wear down the will of the Mammoths, so that the eagles would lose their wings and imprison the Mammoths forever. ”

Tuli Niu was the first to can't help it, he was young, and he scolded when he scolded: "Ri Da Damn, let them live a good life, they don't want to." ”

Dia Xiao is a member of the Dia Bird family.

Then they looked at it again, wondering how much he could know, how much he could agree to these conditions.

Di Axiao said: "My first aunt, I haven't seen it, whether it is a fierce princess or not, it is all occasionally mentioned by adults, or when I think I am asleep." But my parents weren't casual talkers, they said it, they said it, and it was true. ”

The crowd breathed a sigh of relief.

yes.

Who are Di Axiao's parents, people like Xiahou Wulu, he has mentioned the identity of Di Axiao's biological mother, can it still be false?

Di Axiao said again: "Brother himself knows better. But he refused to officially announce it, because he thought that he didn't need to cling to the Wanhu family, he would have greater achievements, more outstanding knights, and more subjects, the Wanhu family was nothing in his eyes, why should he consider himself the Wanhu family? Including the jade seal of the Wanhu family. It also doesn't have much value in his eyes. He kept it in his hand, but he was afraid that people would use this seal to call for chaos. ”

The crowd agreed.

The Mamhzat minister nodded approvingly.

"If this is the reason that alienates the Mamzhats, it's not because they doubt that Brother has any MamZat blood, but because they feel that Brother is lying and paralyze them with lies...... In that case, I support the confirmation of all this, but I am not in favor of bringing my brother's beloved son. I don't know if you want the child to make a contract with the fierce man, or if you want him to become a hostage in disguise, since my brother, this is not true in our family. With good words in one hand and a steel knife in the other, believe it or not, we have good intentions, but we will not give in to anyone. Either treat them the same, or let them be in different places. ”
