84. The hustle and bustle is profitable
The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.
Yan Xing was in it, how could he avoid vulgarity.
When Li Dao and Guo Yan entered Chang'an in the west, he sat back and watched the success or failure, and did not move, even if his own soldiers and horses were close to Zuo Feng Yi, he was not willing to take advantage of the fire for others, and then make further progress.
And now, the dust has settled. The Xiliang army of Li Dao, Guo Yan and others occupied Chang'an, and when the generals were rewarding their merits, Yan Xing took the fine horsemen, traveled lightly, and rushed to Chang'an for several days.
The cavalry traveled from Linjin to Chang'an, passing through the city of Xinfeng along the way. Like the generals of the Xiliang Army, he was stationed in Ganling in Chang'an, and after hearing the news, he quickly sent Zhai Hao to lead two thousand horsemen to Xinfeng in advance to welcome the arrival of Yan Xing's men and horses.
Outside Xinfeng City
Yan Xing rode his horse slowly, looking at the banner on the city, the knights stationed on the side of the road to guard the horses were mighty and majestic, the horns sounded, the horses were strong, and under the array, he felt that the spears and halberds were like a forest, and the armor was shining, and it was a grand occasion of strong soldiers and horses.
"Okay, you Zhai Hao, I haven't seen you in a short time, and you have learned the trick of welcoming people's hearts, these honor guards and armor, you dare to make a claim, and you got it out for me!"
Yan Xing looked at Zhai Hao, who was riding a horse beside him, shook his head, and said with a smile.
Zhai Hao, who was five big and three coarse, smiled when he heard this, knowing that Yan Xing didn't really want to blame him, he laughed and said:
"Captain, don't you know, since the capture of Chang'an, which of those generals and colonels in the Xiliang Army is not arrogant and powerful, the captain came from afar, Hao was ordered to greet him, and naturally he had to help the captain to make this momentum bigger, so as not to let some shallow people in the army look down on me."
Yan Xing looked at the smug Zhai Hao and smiled, he didn't expect that he was a big and rough man in the army in the past, and he actually had more considerations in today's actions, it seems that he is really coarse and detailed, and what he said seems to have some truth.
Looking at the armor on the knights guarding on both sides, Yan Xing nodded secretly, it seems that these battles have yielded a lot in the army, and these captured armor soldiers are used on the soldiers and horses in the army, which are just armed to the teeth.
"Alright, blow the trumpet and give the order, let your soldiers and horses enter the city too!"
Yan Xing's cavalry entered the city, and saw the people kneeling on the ground scattered on both sides of the streets in the city, remembering that there had just been a big war here not long ago, all industries were in ruins, and the people's livelihood withered.
"No."
Zhai Hao was uncompromising on the implementation of Yan Xing's orders, and as soon as he heard Yan Xing's orders, although he had different ideas from his own, he did not hesitate, and immediately agreed, and Le Ma ordered to blow the trumpet and withdraw the troops.
The majestic horn sounded, and after a while, the cavalry in bright armor and the foot soldiers in armor and halberds also lined up one after another, and rushed in, and in the sound of the horns, many horsemen led by Zhai Hao marched to the barracks in the city.
After asking Zhai Hao to collect his troops, Yan Xingzai immediately thought about it, and asked the guards around him:
"Xu Jun is still in the city now?"
"After Xu Jun finished paying his respects outside the city, he has rushed back to the city."
Yan Xing finished listening and nodded. The Xu Jun he just talked about was none other than Xu Kun, who was defeated and voted for.
Xu Rong died in the battle of Xinfeng, and Xu Kun had quietly left the camp before the war, so he avoided this catastrophe.
After Xu Kun defected to Yan Xing, Yan Xing did not take the situation as usual, treated him as before, and hurriedly sent people to Chang'an, so that the Ganling, which is now garrisoned in Chang'an, must protect the Xu family's family and children.
And this time he came to Chang'an, Xu Kun asked to accompany him, Yan Xing knew that he wanted to come to Xinfeng, and he did not refuse, so he asked him to arrive in advance, and on the suburban battlefield where the war just took place not long ago, he paid tribute to Xu Rong, who died in battle.
Now, hearing that Xu Kun had returned to the city, Yan Xing knew about it, so he immediately rode his horse and came to the residence where he rested in the city.
As soon as he entered the chamber, Xu Kun, who was plain and haggard, immediately bowed to Yan Xing.
"Thank you Captain for sheltering me before, and today I have done my filial piety, Kun is grateful, if the captain does not give up, in this life, Kun is willing to risk the rank of captain to death!"
Xu Kun, who had been thinking about it for many days, after paying tribute to Xu Rong outside the city, faced the battlefield where there were still scattered broken halberds and remnants, he was sad, and his heart of revenge also broke free in grief and anger.
As for Xu Rong's advice to him when he was leaving, Xu Kun did not make the trip after hesitating again and again, he was unwilling and unwilling to give up.
The father's revenge has not been avenged, and he is not a human son, even if he goes away to Liaodong, how can he talk about standing between heaven and earth.
And after he defected to Yan Xing, he found that Yan Xing's troops were strong and strong, and the strength of the army was far beyond his previous imagination, he and Yan Xing had known each other for a long time, and this time he could faintly perceive Yan Xing's long-hidden ambition, which was also expanding vigorously after the upheaval in Chang'an.
This point is very important for Xu Kun.
As long as Yan Xing has the ambition of secession, both civil and military, and Xu Kun, who is also a friend of the old people, is not afraid of not having a place under Yan Xing, and now the forces of the Xiliang Army General School in Guanzhong are staggered, only Yan Xing has the ambition of expansion, and is unwilling to succumb to Li, Guo and others, then he is not afraid that there is no way to avenge the enmity between him and Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and others.
Of course, the key to allegiance to Yan Xing still depends on Yan Xing's inner thoughts. If what Yan Xing planned in his heart did not match his conjecture, then I was afraid that even if he did not have to worry about his life, the idea of continuing to stay under Yan Xing's command and taking revenge with the help of Yan Xing's military power would not be realized.
Xu Kun thought about the next changes, but humbly buried his head lower. Yan Xing looked at Xu Kun's broad back, pondered for a moment, and did not immediately respond to accept Xu Kun.
After Xu Kun came back from the memorial service, his behavior of immediately allegiance to himself made Yan Xing a little stunned, but it did not completely exceed Yan Xing's imagination.
Xu Kun's ability is there, and now is the time to employ people, and if he has to sincerely serve him, Yan Xing will naturally accept it gladly, but Yan Xing can also see that the vigorous desire for revenge in Xu Kun's heart is not a good thing.
Xu Rong died on the battlefield and died in the chaos, and what Xu Kun can blame is Li, Guo Zhang, Fan and others. There are so many generals and colonels of the Xiliang Army, all of them have self-respect, and they are dominant, and if they want to take revenge with their own strength, it is undoubtedly more difficult than ascending to the sky.
And if you can't ask for it, you can only rely on the power of others.
I don't know why, Yan Xing was out of her mind for a while, and wanted Dong Dai, who was begging her to help her take revenge in the tent at that time, and now that Wang Yun is dead and Lu Bu has fled, presumably her revenge heart can also be dissipated a little, and there is no need to eat the evil fruits of this hatred alone.
Thinking of the moment, Yan Xing still reached out and helped Xu Kun, who fell to the ground, to help him up, he looked at Xu Kun's eyes and said sincerely:
"Back then, I was trapped in the Dong camp, the day was not safe, or it was thanks to Ziyu's help that I had to get out of the big trouble, and you and I were confidants and friends, today Ziyu came to vote, how can I be afraid of the truth, in the future, you and I will work together, how can we talk about big things!"
"Yan Ming...
Hearing this, Xu Kun's pale lips trembled slightly, and his voice was a little choked, but he couldn't say anything more. Yan Xing patted him lightly on the back of the shoulder, and the words he originally wanted to warn were not spoken, his deep gaze passed over Xu Kun and went straight out of the window.
The hatred brewed in the troubled times could not be resolved by him with just a few words.
After appeasing Xu Kun, who was full of grief and anger, Yan Xing withdrew from his residence and drove away, wanting to return to his house, when Dian Wei came to the door again.
"Captain!"
Dian Wei, who stood like a black iron tower, strode towards Yan, and after he saluted Yan Xing, he quickly said:
"There is a group of young men in Xinfeng City who want to join the army, but they have been taken outside by Wei, I wonder if the captain wants to meet them?"
After listening to Dian Wei's words, Yan Xing's eyes widened, revealing a stunned expression, if Xu Kun's dedication to himself was a matter of necessity and natural necessity, then it was really unexpected that the young man in Xinfeng City would come to take refuge in himself.
The reputation of the Xiliang army in Guanzhong, not as bad as in Guandong and other places, but it is not much better, since the soldiers marched westward, the cities and towns, the officials and surnames who really defected to the city are few, it is nothing more than forced by the situation, in order to save the life of the whole family, they have to surrender and sacrifice the city, and the Xiliang army is weak and wrong.
And the strength of Li Dao, Guo Yan and others swelled so fast, in addition to collecting the original Xiliang old department, most of them were through forcibly recruiting Ding Zhuang, recruiting Qianghu people, accepting soldiers and other ways, like the local Han family leader in Guanzhong, who came to join the army in person, and was unique, and today he was actually met by Yan Xing.
Yan Xing was curious, he knew that Dian Wei was extremely fierce on the battlefield and invincible, but on weekdays, he was kind in the army, and he was not a person who welcomed Ah Yan, this matter was definitely not false, and he couldn't take a break at the moment, so he asked Dian Wei to bring the leader of the group of light heroes into the hall and see it himself.
Dian Wei received the order to turn around and leave, and it didn't take long for a young man in cloth to be brought into the hall to meet Yan Xing.
Yan Xing looked at the person carefully, only to see that he was in his twenties, burly, steady pace, and stopped near the hall, he saw that he was wrapped in a scarf on his forehead, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, straight shoulders, and thin cloth clothes on his body, but he was supported by the muscles on his body, and every line of his body outline was like a knife carved on, and the Shenhua of his eyes was far beyond ordinary people.
The person who came didn't dare to look like Yan Xing, after he took a careful look, and after seeing the big armor robe on Yan Xing's body, he immediately leaned down and bowed, and said in an urn in his mouth:
"Qianshou Bao out, meet the captain!"
Yan Xingrong is handsome, enters the ranks with military merits, likes brave people, seeing Bao Zhu's body posture, he smiled, secretly praised a good Tibetan man, and stretched out his hand to let him get up.
"I heard you want to join the army?"
Yan Xing looked curiously at Bao Zhu, who stood up, although Bao's body was slightly lower than Dian Wei, he was also tall and straight, showing his martial spirit.
"When the villain was young, he was saved by the captain, and he was unforgettable, and today he saw the captain Huwei in the city, and under the admiration, he wanted to serve the captain, so he brought some friends in the city to join the captain."
"Oh, that's it!"
Hearing that Bao had received his kindness when he was young, Yan Xing was even more shocked in his heart, he himself had been back and forth in Guanzhong many times, but he had no impression of this young man from Angzang, and he didn't know when he had rescued this young man.
"In the fourth year of Zhongping, on Huayang Street in Chang'an City, I was evil when I encountered gangsters blocking the road with my mother and brother, thanks to the help of the captain, the villain of the captain is still remembered today."
Bao Chu hurriedly explained this matter to Yan Xing, he hadn't seen it for several years, Yan Xing's appearance had not changed much, so he could see it at a glance, but he didn't know if a big man like Yan Xing still remembered such a small incident when he raised his hand to help him on the streets of Chang'an.
"Four years of Zhongping...
Yan Xing muttered in his mouth, and his mind began to recall the past.
Reminded by Bao Chu, Yan Xing quickly remembered what happened in Zhongping's fourth year on Chang'an Avenue, when he infiltrated Sanfu to spy on the military situation, and happened to fight off a group of evil teenagers with Yan Xing on Chang'an Avenue to help a brave teenager rescue his mother.
Unexpectedly, the brave young man back then has now grown into a burly man.
Thinking of this, the smile on Yan Xing's face became a little thicker, he got up and came to Bao Zhu, and asked with a smile:
"Is there a table?"
Bao bowed and replied:
"The villain is literary. Although there are few literary talents in the abdomen, this strength is also one of the best in Xinfeng City. ”
Yan Xing clapped his hands and laughed, praising him:
"Okay, rectify the martial arts, the prince is in the city."
Seeing that Bao Chu was dressed plainly, Yan Xing immediately asked the guards to bring a brocade robe, and put it on Bao Chu's body with his own hands, showing a more cordial attitude towards him, and then together with him and the group of light heroes he brought, they were all assigned to Dian Wei's command, Dian Wei was also born in Ren Xia, and with his strength, let him lead this group of light heroes, which is just right.
···
Outside Chang'an City, Li Dao's camp.
In the dome tent, Li Dao is in the first place, followed by Guo Yan, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji, Hu Zhen, Yang Ding, Jia Xu, Li Ru and others, and the generals of the Xiliang Army can be said to be full of people.
Only Duan Xuan, Yan Yan, and Gan Ling are missing.
Li Wei had already obtained Guo Yan's approval before, and he no longer concealed his attitude, and immediately announced it to the Xiliang General in the tent.
"Gentlemen, have you heard what Li Shizhong said just now?"
Li Ru has been recommended by Li Dao as a servant by the side of the Son of Heaven, and the so-called edict of the Son of Heaven to reward the generals is just that the generals discussed it in private, and then let Li Ru write it down and stamp it with the seal of the Son of Heaven.
On the edict of discussion, it was written that Li Dao was the general of the chariot and cavalry, the commander of the commander, and the false festival; Guo Yan was the rear general, Fan Chou was the right general, and Zhang Ji was the general of Zhendong, all of whom were feudal marquises. Li, Guo, and Fan were in charge of the court, and the soldiers and horses were stationed in Jingzhaoyin, Zuo Fengyi, and Right Fufeng, while Zhang Ji led the troops out of Tun Hongnong.
As for Hu Zhen, Yang Ding and others, although they have been promoted to the rank of miscellaneous generals, they must also be under the command of Li Dao. And Duan Xuan, Yan Yan, and Gan Ling, the generals of the Xiliang Army who were separated from the periphery of the core, were awarded the titles of generals, Zhonglang generals and other knights.
It can be said that the content of this edict concocted by Li Ru to welcome Li Dao's wishes, except for Jia Xu, who refused to be the marquis and served as Zuo Fengyi, everyone else was greatly disappointed, and they were secretly dissatisfied and resentful.
The people in the tent all have soldiers and horses in their hands, and they all come for profit, but what they get now is very different from the expectations in their hearts, and dissatisfaction arises spontaneously.
For a while, all eyes focused on Li Dao's body.
