Chapter 33: The Gentleman's Covenant
After Liu Zhang and Xun Yu slapped each other with an elegant sycophant, Liu Zhang immediately entered the topic and said: "Mr. Wenruo, my Han Dynasty has been plagued by the Yellow Turban, and there have been disasters for many years, and there are more relatives and eunuchs in the temple to control the government and infighting, which can be said to be declining. Now that the emperor is depressed and the new emperor is young, it has been a sign of chaos since ancient times when the lord is weak and the minister is strong. In my opinion, after the death of the first emperor, the ten permanent servants lost their basis, it is said that they are no longer the general's opponents, but the general is slaughtered pigs and dogs, so small profits and no strategy, and what is the relationship with the ten permanent servants, when he was helped by the ten permanent servants to ascend to the back position, why will the general not bear to kill the ten permanent servants. However, the Ten Standing Servants and the Great General Jin have long been on the same page and difficult to coexist, and there will be a battle between the two sides. In order to avoid anger, the general could only seek another way. In my opinion, he will summon the princes into the capital to punish the thief Qin King, so as not to anger Empress He. Liu Zhang told the stories and historical events he knew, and said secretly in his heart: "I don't believe I can't shake you!" ”
Xun Yu didn't express shock, nodded, and said lightly: "Childe is high, I admire it." I don't know, according to Gongzi's opinion, who will He Jin order to enter Beijing?"
Liu Zhang: "If it is not bad as expected, it must be Xiliang Dong Zhuo, these two knew each other in the past, and there was friendship in pacifying the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and Dong Zhuo was under the Xiliang Iron Cavalry Champion of the Three Armies, but he was good at covering up, and he has always shown himself as a martial artist, this kind of person has no scheming and is easy to master." If the general orders foreign troops to enter Beijing, it is the first choice, and the rest are either too far away, or the troops are not enough to deal with it, or the general does not believe in it, or the general feels that it is difficult to control! ”
Xun Yu said: "I heard that when Dong Zhuo fought against the Yellow Turban in the past, there were countless things to kill prisoners and disturb the people. With the ability to enter, I am afraid that the princes will occupy the magpie's nest and lead to death. ”
Liu Zhang said: "Yes, when the foreign army enters the center and faces Fan Jingque, there will be trouble!" However, I am afraid that the general will not be able to wait for the princes' army to enter Beijing, and the ten permanent servants are all ruthless people, once the ten permanent servants know that the general has the intention of killing themselves, they will definitely make a desperate bet and raise troops to crusade against the general He Jin, and the general has nothing to prepare, and he is afraid that he will be harmed by the ten permanent servants. ”
Xun Yu seemed to be going to take the school Liu Zhang, and said: "He Jin controls the soldiers and horses in the world, and the ten permanent servants are not eunuchs, and without the support of the emperor, they are like duckweed, how is He Jin's enemy?" ”
"How difficult is this matter, if there is a book, summon the general to enter, the general is unexpected, once you enter the palace, there will be no chance of survival!" Liu Zhang couldn't help but laugh, why were so many people in the Han Dynasty taken down by such a move? Isn't Han Xin, the god of war, the hand of the woman who lost his life? Han Gaozu Liu Bang and Wusheng Guan Erye also planned because of this, one almost killed the king of Chu, and the other was killed by Lu Su. "It seems that there is some truth in the sentence that there is no good banquet, whoever invites me to the banquet in the future, it is best not to go if I can, if I have to go, I have to bring enough bodyguards!" He smiled secretly.
Xun Yu said again: "Once this is the case, wouldn't the princes who entered Beijing justifiably pacify the ten permanent servants, and then hijack the young emperor and control the government." As a member of the Han clan, the prince worships Che Duwei, and he knows that the Han Dynasty is in this stormy time, why did he leave the center without permission? ”
"It's easier said than done-" Liu Zhang sighed and said, "I also have the same understanding, and I also feel that as a member of the Han Dynasty, I should serve the country with my body." My life and death are not important, if I can restore the stability of the world, I will have a full past when I die? However, the subordinates are soft-spoken, and they have no soldiers and no power in Beijing, even if they stay in Beijing, can they protect the safety of His Majesty and the stability of the town? It's just fish and meat on the human case, what is the use of the country and the people? At the same time, he did not hesitate to be scolded by the world and leave Beijing without permission, not to live in the world, but to call on loyal and patriotic people all over the world to work together to gather volunteers and fight the chaos of war! ”
Xun Yu bowed and said: "Gongzi is the ambition of the country, and he admires it, with Gongzi here, the revival of the Han Dynasty is expected!" ”
Liu Zhang sighed again: "Alas, it's a pity that I am shallow in my knowledge and it is difficult to take on this big responsibility." When Xia Yuan was in Beijing, I heard that Mr. Wang Zuozhi was talented, and I implored Mr. for the sake of the Han people, please go out of the mountain to help in the next hand, if Mr. help, the revival of the Han Dynasty is not an extravagant hope! ”
Xun Yu didn't agree, but asked: "When the unknown prince left Beijing for a long time, did any of the princes have been willing to participate in the righteous act?" ”
Liu Zhang shook his head: "I am soft-spoken, and the capital remains stable on the surface for the time being, so I have not lobbied the princes for the time being, otherwise I am afraid that people will be regarded as rebellious people!" However, there are Gongda, Gongming and others to help, and there are thousands of righteous people in Wu'an. My father, as a pastor in Yizhou, is in charge of a state of land, with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands, and he wants to return to Yizhou to persuade his father that once there is chaos in Beijing, he will raise a state of soldiers to call on the princes of the world to escort King Qin! ”
Xun Yu said: "Liu Yizhou is always holding on to it, Yizhou has the danger of mountains, traffic congestion, and government orders are difficult to reach, I'm afraid Liu Yi will not send troops easily!" What he said was a bit straightforward, almost making it clear that Liu Yan wanted to be his soil emperor in Yizhou. Of course, Liu Yan did this in history, as soon as he entered Yizhou, he pretended to be a bandit to occupy the key passes, blocked the connection between Yizhou and the outside world, and became the king of Yizhou.
Liu Zhang also understands Liu Yan's temperament, but he doesn't expect Liu Yan to lead the army to the king, he is more willing to persuade Liu Yan to give him some soldiers and horses, and he will lead the gathering princes to protect the king, so as to increase his political capital, right? What's more, he also made up his mind to pay attention, even if Liu Yan didn't give himself soldiers and horses, he would also get a piece of the pie when the princes of the Eighteenth Road begged for Dong, anyway, he still had Zhou Cangna and the soldiers and horses of the road, although it was not much, but could it barely be counted as a prince all the way? As for the exploits of the war or something, it! As long as you send out the army, it will be a reputation, and with this righteous name, it will be easier to seek talents and recruit soldiers in the future, right? Seeing that Xun Yu still had doubts and was unwilling to surrender immediately, he immediately changed his mind: "In this case, I will make a bet with Mr., how about it?" ”
Xun Yu said: "I don't know what to bet on?" What about betting? ”
Liu Zhang said: "I bet on whether my father will be the king of Qin, if there is chaos in Beijing, my father will send troops to the king of Qin, and Mr. will stoop down; If the father does not allow it, it also means that he is not the master, so he will naturally not force the husband, and the husband can seek the master to vote, how about it? ”
Xun Yu thought for a while, and said: "Since Gongzi has this confidence, he will make a bet with Gongzi in the next, if the Yizhou army is in Luoyang, he will serve Gongzi in the next and work hard with Gongzi for the rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty!" ”
Liu Zhang laughed and said, "Okay, okay...... Mr. Yinuo, my heart is overjoyed, and the gentleman said...... "He is really happy, this time Xun Yu can't run, he is a sincere person, and he promises to commit suicide." When he returned to Yizhou to fight stubbornly, he could always bring out some Yizhou soldiers and horses, anyway, the gambling contract did not stipulate how many soldiers and horses he would bring, and tens of thousands of Yizhou soldiers were brought in, and thousands, hundreds, weren't they?
Xun Yu said: "It's hard to chase a horse!" ”
"Sir will stay here for a while, within a year, I will command the army, please sir!"
"At any time, Mr. Gonghou in the Humble House will drive!"
