Chapter 189: Dial (1)

Zhao Xun transferred the guest army of Beihai County to defend Ruitian Village, which at first glance seemed to be intended to suppress the Guangxin army, but it was better to appease the Marquis of Dingyang.

At this time, his eldest son Zhang You was transferred to Ruitian, hoping to raise the power of Dingyang Marquis and make Taiwei stand on the side of King Xian.

And after all, the big Sima Jiang Yan is the uncle of King Xian, Zhao Xun's boss, and the Muyangcang scandal would not have been able to be done without his instructions.

From this point of view, King Xian is already in order to overthrow his uncle in the aftermath, and the opportunity to overthrow Jiang Yan may be a victory, Zhao Xun replaces Jiang Yan as the Great Sima, nominally in charge of the military power, in fact, Ding Yang Hou, the captain, is the supreme commander who is actually in power.

In this way, after the war, it is logical to recover the military power from Zhao Xun to King Xian.

The biggest disadvantage of Ding Yang Hou is that he is incompetent, the biggest advantage is that he is obedient, and at the same time he is the cousin-in-law of King Xian, and he is more reliable than his uncle Jiang Yan in public and private, which is actually the case.

In this way, the scandal of Muyangcang can give an explanation to the internal and external dynasties and the people of the world, and at the same time, it can also win over Zhao Xun and make him the great Sima, forcing him to bear the halo of the world's wisdom and never rebel against King Xian, so the position of Guangxin Gong is not embarrassing.

The confluence of Zhao Xun and Guangxin Gong is a well-known thing in the internal and external dynasties, and letting him take command of the enemy is the result of the various factions fearing the enemy and throwing the pot, if Zhao Xun can defeat the Black Turban Army, it will be a miracle in the history of Xianguo.

Zhao Xun is for his own wisdom, how can he help Guangxin Gong rebel, Guangxin Gong can not know what to do, and launch a rebellion when Zhao Xun is still alive, isn't this the enemy of the world.

Previously, Luo Songting had privately calculated that Zhao Xun would win the first battle, and King Xian would send his ministers to serve as Sima Envoy's supervisor to restrain Zhao Xun.

Luo Songting's judgment at that time was based on the fact that King Xian did not turn his face with the inner dynasty and maintained the harmony on the surface. But looking at it now, King Xian has turned his face with the inner dynasty behind his back, and it is even possible to flip the table, otherwise he would not be so relieved to let Zhao Xun lead the Xianjun army to herd sheep outside.

But after thinking about it carefully, does King Xian have such a high IQ, and only completed such a far-sighted political arrangement overnight, Bai Liyan (Wei Xian) thinks that King Xian and the Queen Mother should not be so bold and skillful, so they are too worried? In other words, Luo Songting deliberately misled and hinted at himself, to test whether he knew anything in advance.

Thinking of this, Bai Liyan remained silent, and he said:

"Mr. Luo, the inner dynasty is the king's family affair, no matter how big the accident is, it is still the king's family matter, doesn't Mr. Luo think that the king's family affairs involve the lord?"

"Yes, Luo is a little worried, whether King Xian will be involved in the lord."

"Oh, I'm willing to hear about it."

"The strength of the Yongxing Hejin and Xian armies exceeded 400,000, which was comparable to the enemy on the west bank of the Yongxing River. If this battle is won, it is Zhao Shuai's miraculous achievement, and if the lord can make great contributions, it will not be difficult to enter the court.

It's just that now that the Guangxin Army is suddenly transferred from Wuping and Ruitian, the lord is afraid that he will miss out on the great achievement, and the matter of entering the cabinet will come to naught, I don't know how Wei Xianfeng thinks about this matter. ”

"Hehe, Mr. Luo can't help but worry too much." Bai Liyan wrote lightly, and continued: "Ruitian has military exploits to fight for, but it is not a blessed land. Our army of 10,000 horses and horses was stationed for more than four months, withstood more than a dozen battles of the Black Turban Army, was attacked on the city as many as six times, lost more than 4,000 soldiers, and more than 200 people were killed by our vanguard battalion alone, which was still equipped with sophisticated combat equipment.

The guest army of Beihai County comes from a large number of sources, although there are many people, but they are not elite, and it will not be easy to garrison Ruitian at first.

I think that not only will the Guangxin Army be adjusted, but He Meng, Ye Xin, Gao Pei and other generals may also be adjusted and transferred to Wuping on the east coast for repair. If this is the case, the guest army of Beihai County fills in Ruitian, isn't it boring to find themselves. ”

The size of the guest army in Beihai County was nearly 25,000 people, which was the largest number of guest troops in Qinwang's army. After the Guangxin Army withdrew from Wuping and Ruitian, the deficit in the defense line of Wuping and Ruitian reached 20,000, and since the Beihai County Guest Army wanted to compete for merit, Zhao Xun was likely to let the Beihai County Guest Army cross the river, instead of guarding the two places like the Guangxin Army.

Zhao Xun let the Guangxin Army break up the two places, intended to let Jiang's father and son support each other, if Jiang Gan has something, Jiang Min will go all out, Jiang Min has an accident, Jiang Qian will raise troops to rescue, can avoid the friendly army in danger, and the guest army will not save the situation.

Beihai County guest army inside the mountains are numerous, Zhang You is nominally the governor of the capital, but he may not be able to command all the guest troops, so he can not unite the Beihai County guest army by dividing the army, the best way is to let Zhang You lead the Beihai County guest army into Ruitian Village desperately, as long as the Ruitian Village is held, the fame and fortune will be taken, if Ruitian is lost, someone must come out to take responsibility.

After the 25,000 guest troops of Beihai County were all filled in the Ruitian competition, the rest of He Meng, Ye Xin, and Gao Pei were bound to withdraw partially, and if there was any mistake, Zhang You, Guan Pu, Xiao Chen and others would have to withstand this thunder.

However, in this way, the most direct result was that the Guangxin Army was placed in the Guantang Canal, where there were almost no fighters, and in the future, when a counteroffensive was launched, Jiang Min could not get the first credit, and he would not have the confidence to enter the DPRK to participate in politics.

But everything has its two sides, it is impossible to be exhaustive, and it is not necessarily a bad thing to adjust the defense to the crown of Tangqu, Luo Songting now asserts that Zhao Xun is the biggest beneficiary, and there is a suspicion that the heart of a villain is a gentleman's belly, at least Bai Liyan does not believe that Zhao Xun will turn his face so quickly, he is not such a person.

The army marched until it was dark and camped on the spot all night, and collided with the guest army of Beihai County led by Zhang You in the early morning. It is rumored that the crown Tangqu was defeated four days ago, but looking at the momentum of the guest army in Beihai County, there was no defeat at all.

At noon, Jiang Min went to meet Zhao Xun after passing through the camp of the Chinese army, but was told that Zhao Xun was still in the camp of the Jin army and had not returned, so the Guangxin army had to continue to go north and arrived at the Guantangqu Dam late that night.

Yao Sheng has been stationed in the northern section of the Yongxing Hebei defense line since before, more than 8,000 people stationed in Guantangqu two days in advance, the Black Turban Army found that the Guantangqu Xian army moved the day before yesterday, launched a sneak attack at night, and was repelled by Yao Sheng.

At noon the next day, Jiang Min set up a banquet in the big tent to entertain the generals, and rewarded the meritorious generals since the capture of Rui Tianzhai, and Yao Sheng was also invited.

Since the defeat of Jiangdong in the first war that year, Yao Sheng was transferred to the Zhennan Army to continue to serve as the governor of the left capital, Zhao Xun paid homage to the commander this time, and promoted him to the governor, Bailiyan and he have not seen him for three years.

After the banquet was dispersed, Yao Sheng came to the door privately and said mysteriously:

"Mr. Wei hasn't seen him for many years, and he doesn't want to worship under the Guangxin Gongmen."

"Everywhere, it's all recommended by Zhao Shuai."

"Oh." Yao Sheng sighed, his eyes suddenly turned around, and said: "Mr. Wei, Zhao Shuai arranged for an old man to meet, and asked Mr. Wei to take a step to speak." ”

"The deceased? Who! ”

"Mr. Wei will know when he goes."

Yao Sheng suddenly sold Guanzi, which couldn't help but make Bai Liyan suspicious, could it be that Zhao Xun was really going to turn his face, can't it.

Walking to Yao Sheng's tent, an old man and a young man were drinking tea, and a young man was sitting in armor, none other than Gao Xun.

"Senior brother, why are you!"

"Oh, Brother Wei Xian, don't come unharmed."

Yao Sheng withdrew from the tent at this time, making sure that there was no one left and right, Bai Liyan said cautiously:

"Why are you here?"

Gao Xun put down the tea set and stood up, walked towards him, and looked at Bailiyan with an admiring gaze at the white-haired old man who was sitting.

"Brother Wei Xian, Brother Fool came to discuss secrets with Brother Xian on the order of Zhao Shuai."

"Confidential!" Bai Liyan took half a step back vigilantly, looked at the old man who was sitting, he only felt familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, he pointed and said, "This one seems familiar." ”

The next moment Gao Xun said with a smile:

"This Brother Wei Xian has seen it before, but Uncle Taidou Guang of the Cheng Dao Sect is also."

"What, it's him!" Bai Liyan was taken aback, he never expected that the uninvited guest would be Uncle Dou Guang of the Chengdao Sect, he hurriedly bowed down and said: "Wei Xian, the pioneer officer of the Guangxin Army, meet Uncle Dou Guang of the Chengdao Sect." ”

Uncle Guang smiled slightly:

"The old man is just an old man, Taidou is ashamed, Wei Langzhong come and please sit down."

Bai Liyan glanced at Gao Xun, saw him smiling, and thought that he must have been appreciated by Uncle Guang.

sat down, Gao Xun was straightforward, and explained the meaning straight to the point:

"Brother Wei Xian, Brother Fool is not only here to be ordered by Zhao Shuai, but also to act under the secret edict of the king."

Hearing the news of King Xian's secret edict, Bailiyan was taken aback again, and her forehead couldn't help but ooze sweat, thinking that Zhao Xun really turned his face this time.

"It is a secret edict of the king, a verbal edict or a hand edict."

"Since it is a secret edict, it is naturally a verbal edict, how can it leave a handle."

"But if the matter is revealed, and the king refuses to admit it in order to protect himself, won't you and I become overbearing!"

Gao Xun disagreed, and said happily:

"This matter can be proved by Mr. Uncle Guang, and the virtuous brother can ask Mr. Uncle Guang for verification."

Uncle Guang nodded slightly harmlessly, which meant that the Chengdao faction represented by Uncle Guang was also involved in this palace struggle within the Xian Kingdom.

The Chengdao faction respects the king as the supreme one, and Uncle Guang personally came forward, and there is obviously an article behind it, and it is definitely not the face of King Xian who can invite the Chengdao faction to come forward.

And Xiangguo Gongsun Yue admired the Xiong Sect of radical reform, and King Xian suddenly turned to the Chengdao School and secretly got the help of Uncle Guang, which means that Gongsun Yue has fallen out of favor. In this way, the master behind King Xian should be Uncle Guang.
