Chapter 27: Jia Xu persuaded Duan to simmer
Chapter 27 Jia Xu persuaded Duan to simmer
Liu Xie's march suddenly became faster, and Zhang Xiu, Hu Feng and others, who were riding horses, were all shocked, watching the Han army run farther and farther away from under their noses, almost suspecting that the other party was riding a horse, and they were walking on two legs.
"Damn, it's this strange wind again, a gust of wind, that actually made the Son of Heaven and them slip away."
The Han army, which was gradually moving away, completely lost its shadow after the sky darkened, but although Zhang Xiu and they had doubts, they did not dare to stop, so they could only chase directly, and the infantry led by Li Dao and Zhang Ji in the back was completely dark, and slowed down into a slow march on foot.
The two listened to the report of the cavalry and looked at each other with a blank expression.
Good guys, the cavalry can't outrun the infantry, it's really evil.
Could it be that the Son of Heaven really knows how to sense the Heavenly Dao, and can really communicate with ghosts and gods, so please come to the east wind and the fog to help.
At this time, the land of China was full of legends of ghosts and gods, especially in the Han Dynasty, and he was the most obsessed with the way of Huang Lao's immortal arts, and no one could think about it.
The next day, it was dawn, and although Liu Xie and others, who were still marching, got rid of Zhang Xiuhufeng's cavalry, their feet began to weaken and they wanted to vomit.
Running faster than the horses all night, for more than ten hours, people could not stand it for a long time, and although the marching charm accelerated their speed, it did not strengthen their physical fitness.
After running for so long, I should have been tired!
Fortunately, after more than ten hours of accelerated marching, they ran to Huayin, and when they arrived at Duan Xuan's territory, they walked away one by one, and they all fell to the ground, either foaming at the mouth or their eyes were white.
Tired, hungry, thirsty, overexcited......
"In situ...... Rest! Go...... Open...... Know, General Duan...... Send us ...... Send ......"
Liu Xie was also weak and weak, but he still gave a heart-warming order, and only Xu Huang was the strongest in the seat, and immediately replied: "It's Your Majesty, the minister will find Duan Xuan and ask him to send some food and water." ”
"What? Your Majesty, they really came to my Huayin again. Duan Xuan was shocked, he didn't expect the Son of Heaven to return to the west.
"General! It is indeed His Majesty's people, it was Xu Huang who came to report, His Majesty and others were resting on the official road, as if they had been running all night, and they were all tired and lying down. The person who reported it said with a lively mind.
At this time, the Son of Heaven Army was an undefended army, and its combat effectiveness was extremely weak, and any man could kill it.
However, Duan Xuan didn't have the same mind as Li Wei, he just wanted to keep his own one-third of an acre of land, and he didn't have the courage and mind to kidnap the emperor, so he waved his hand and said: "Go down and prepare to eat and drink, so that you can live and serve Your Majesty." ”
"No!" The person who reported it left, and Duan Xuan called the guards again:
"Come on, go and invite Mr. Jia."
Soon Jia Xu came over, but there was still a little hazy sleepiness on his face, this autumn and winter, the sky was bright and cold and sleepy, and it was the most lazy time for people.
"General! I don't know why, so eagerly summoned me. ”
Duan Xuan said: "It's not that I deliberately disturbed Mr.'s good dreams, but Mr. guessed correctly, Your Majesty really broke through to the west, and at this time he rested on the official road in the north." ”
"Oh! It really made His Majesty rush out. Jia Xu had long expected that the Son of Heaven would break through, and if he didn't want to involve Dong Cheng and the others who were heading east, the best direction was to go west.
But he didn't expect the Son of Heaven to come so quickly, and so simply, in his expectation, although the Son of Heaven would break through, he might not be able to stand out.
"I don't know how much Your Majesty's army is, and whether Li Dao and Zhang Jishe have also arrived in Huayin."
Duan Xuan shook his head: "It's not clear how many people Your Majesty has, Li Dao and Zhang Ji shouldn't have arrived in Huayin yet, and it's estimated that it's going to be soon, I really don't know how Your Majesty rushed out." ”
It's really curious!
Li Dao and Zhang Ji have cavalry, and the Son of Heaven is all infantry, how can they break through, it is really incomprehensible.
Of course, while being curious, he appreciated Jia Xu's talent even more, and even a little jealous, so that his mind was complicated.
Huayin is his Huayin, there can only be one head here, one person to rule, Jia Xu is too talented, unparalleled in strategy, he can't hold it down, and there will be disasters after a long time.
Thinking of this, Duan Xuan's eyes drifted a little, and he became worried.
Jia Xu saw Duan Xuan's appearance at this time, closed his eyes and thought slightly, and sighed lightly in his heart.
In fact, after coming for so many days, although Duan Xuan has always treated him well and praised him for his talent, he has not been given any important official position, guarding him everywhere, and now he has roughly figured out Duan Xuan's character.
This is a person with a strong sense of self-preservation, and a strong desire to control the possession of territory.
If you stay with him for a long time, you will be harmed by suspicion.
"General! You are the general of the Han Dynasty, if Li Dao and Zhang Ji chase to Huayin, do you want to help Your Majesty? ”
You can not escort the Son of Heaven, but when the Son of Heaven is under your nose, you can't sit idly by and let Li Dao attack the Son of Heaven, this is not in line with your morality, and the reputation you have won so hard will be ruined.
Hearing Jia Xu's question, Duan Xuan was really a little embarrassed.
He didn't want to rob the Son of Heaven, and he didn't want to offend Li Dao and Zhang Ji, let alone go to war to lose his strength because of this.
"How can the gentleman teach me?" Duan Xuan asked anxiously.
Jia Xu said with a smile: "Of course the general wants to help, if you don't help, you will lose your righteousness, and it won't sound good to spread out, in fact, the general doesn't have to worry too much, Your Majesty has no intention of stopping, they should take a rest here and go to Hedong."
Whether it is Yang Cheng or Bai Bojun, their old nest is Hedong, and it is safer to go there, and Li Dao and Zhang Ji do not dare to chase after them.
Besides, the two of them don't think there are too many soldiers and horses, and the general should remember the fog three days ago, thinking that he lost a lot of their men and horses. The general had the city in hand, and they did not dare to attack it.
Once the Son of Heaven goes to Hedong, they lose their goal, and the two armies will either go their separate ways, or you will fight for it, no matter what the situation is, they will eventually win over the general, and they will never bring up the old matter again to calculate this matter. ”
"Mr. is really talented, so that the simmer can clear the clouds and mist." Duan Xuan suddenly became enlightened, and couldn't help but praise Jia Xu even more, he still saw the general trend clearly, understood it, analyzed it thoroughly, and didn't suffer any loss inside and out.
However, while admiring it, the fear of Jia Xu is also stronger, such a powerful person is by his side, after a long time, who knows if his subordinates will be attracted to him and thus empty themselves.
Jia Xu also knew that after analyzing this, Duan Xuan was even more wary of himself, and sighed in his heart, thinking that Duan Xuan was a person who had made a difference, and he had a clear metaphor, but he didn't expect that it was a person with such a character who took refuge in the wrong place.
Duan Xuan is not as good as the Son of Heaven.
After thinking about it, Jia Xu felt that he had to find a way back for himself, so he said: "General, Xu still has one thing to say, the general wants His Majesty to cross the Yellow River safely to Hedong, and he has to help him with some soldiers." ”
"Are you helping His Majesty with some generals?" Duan Xuan was puzzled.
