In the world, in a game of chess, with the idea of a chess player, a small chess piece has to run from one distant position to another. The same emperor's holy decree transferred Xiao Yi from Yanmen, which was located in northern Xinjiang, to Luoyang, Zhongzhou, thousands of miles away.

After receiving the order, Xiao Yi immediately took Da Niu, Ma Liuzhang Zhuan, Yang He and other six brave generals, and gathered all the soldiers of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, even Cao Fatzi, who was in charge of logistics and military quartermasters, did not pull down, and all the staff went out to escort Taishou Zhang Yang to set off immediately, and went to Luoyang, the eastern capital of the Han Dynasty, day and night; Because they were all cavalry troops, and the counties along the way provided grain and grass, which reduced the burden of baggage, the march was unusually fast, and the mountains and mountains were crossed along the way, and the cities and counties were not stopped; Just half a month later, the brigade followed the official road and entered the Sizhou boundary to which the eastern capital Luoyang belonged.

Sizhou, also known as Sili School Captain's Department; Seven counties, one hundred and six counties; The political status was as important as the capital municipality of China in later generations; This place is irrigated by the Yellow River and Luoshui, the land is fertile, the population is dense, merchants from all over the world gather here, the economy is extremely developed, and it is the essence of the entire Eastern Han Empire.

Entering Sizhou also means that Luoyang is in sight, and Taishou Zhang Yang, who was originally galloping along the way, suddenly gave an abnormal order, letting the team slow down, slow down again, slow down without stopping, and finally almost stand still. And Zhang Yang himself also had an abnormality, tossing and turning all night during camping and it was difficult to sleep, and two dark circles soon appeared on his eyes; Even when marching on horseback during the day, he was always in a trance, as if he was thinking about something repeatedly and never being sure; So much so that he almost fell off the horse several times, if it weren't for Xiao Yi, who was guarding on the side, to quickly support him, I'm afraid that this Taishou Lord would have lost a few front teeth when he faced the saint.

Although the walk was very slow, the team was still moving southward, and after crossing Luoshui, it was already close to its destination, and if nothing else, it would arrive at the eastern capital of Luoyang at noon tomorrow.

All the way to the march, Xiao Yi will carefully and carefully personally select the camp every time, the army stationed is not a child's play, because there are not a few battles that have not chosen a camp and the whole army has been wiped out, you must choose a place where there is danger to defend, water to follow, and a way to retreat, and you can't camp in a place where the terrain is too low, otherwise there will be a storm, you will wait for the 'flooded Seventh Army'! In the same way, places with too much vegetation are not suitable for camping, and we must be vigilant about burning the company camp!

At dusk, Xiao Yi chose to camp on a small barren mountain by the Luoshui River, although it was still peaceful time, he still scattered dozens of reconnaissance rangers everywhere, and arranged two groups of sentinels in several key positions near the camp, one bright and one dark, which was a trick learned from a highly rated military-themed TV series in later generations, although it was simple, it was absolutely practical, and the safety factor of the camp was completely improved by a notch; In the future, Xiao Yi led the army to fight countless battles, although he also suffered defeats, but he never was robbed of the camp, it is thanks to this!

Soon the men began to set up tents and fences on the camp, and others fetched water from the Luo River, set up military iron kettles and began to cook food, and everything was in order as usual training; Soon the bonfires began to burn, and the smell of food wafted through the air, and although the soldiers had been hungry for a long time after a long day's travel, they ate in batches according to the rules of eating on the march, and did not let their guard down in the slightest because it was peacetime.

At night, Xiao Yi strode towards the position of the Chinese army's big tent after personally inspecting the camp, where the lights were bright, and there were figures constantly shaking, obviously the Taishou Lord was still thinking restlessly, as a traverser, Xiao Yi could fully understand Zhang Yang's mood at this time, the current Luoyang City can be described as a tiger's den in Longtan, and the slightest carelessness will shatter his bones, but in the same way, this is also a good opportunity to rise to the top, it is really a thought of heaven! A thought of hell!

It's exciting to think about: "A grand historical drama is about to open in Luoyang, the capital of the Han Empire, and countless heroes and heroes are about to appear; There are mediocre emperors, incompetent generals, treacherous courtiers, and brutal warlords...... By the way, there is also Diao Chan, one of the four beauties...... It's exciting to think about, what a 'messy' word! ”

"Headache! ......" After thinking for a while, Xiao Yi, who couldn't completely sort out his thoughts, shook his head vigorously, "The real history is too chaotic to think clearly, so I just don't want to think about it; But one thing is for sure, that is, such a wonderful historical drama must not be missed, and I have to play an important role in it! However, he will go down in history! Or will it be stinking for 10,000 years? ......" With a deep smile and a slight touch of his nose, Xiao Yi strode into the military tent......

Sure enough, in the big tent, Taishou Zhang Yang was wearing a brand new set of court clothes and was walking around, and touching his clothes from time to time, obviously he attached great importance to this court dress, a Go board made of rosewood was placed on the ground, and the black and white two sons on it were like two teams of soldiers and horses were fighting desperately; The chess has been played to the middle game, the situation is extremely complicated, black and white are intertwined with each other, you have me, I have you; There is no way to distinguish the winner from the loser, and even from the enemy, at this time there is no one else in the big tent except Zhang Yang, obviously this adult has been playing chess with his left hand and right hand, so it is strange that such a chess game can distinguish the winner and loser.

People can't really defeat themselves, just like it is impossible to really distinguish between your left and right hands, but in Luoyang City, the emperor's left and right hands are fighting to the death, and it is difficult to distinguish between victory and defeat......

"Xiao Yi, you are from a famous family, you must be proficient in chess, and now the black and white are intricate and entangled, you may be able to see who wins and who loses?" Seeing Xiao Yi walking in from outside the tent, Zhang Yang stopped and asked a seemingly unrelated question.

The people in the officialdom speak implicitly, nominally asking about the chess game, but in fact they just want to hear Xiao Yi's views on the current situation, today's Luoyang is like this chessboard, the black and white on it is, the eunuchs headed by the 'Ten Standing Servants', and the two political forces of the relatives headed by the general He Jin; originally the relatives and the eunuchs are derivatives of the imperial power, just like the two puppets fiddled with by the emperor, but with the passage of time, now the two puppets have their own thoughts and are no longer controlled by the master......

The gods fought, the little ghosts suffered, Zhang Yang, as a feudal official, will inevitably face a problem of standing in line when he enters Beijing this time. If you stand wrong, you will never recover! If you don't stand, hehe! That's where death is gone......

"The last general is petty and lowly, how dare he speak presumptuously!" The necessary modesty is still required, although it is known that it is very fake.

"It's just you and me here, it's okay to just talk about it!"

"No! ……”

After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Yi slowly spoke: "In the opinion of the last general, now the black and white are evenly matched in this chess game, and no one can really eat anyone, so the key to victory or defeat is no longer in the chess game, but outside the chess game!" As he spoke, Xiao Yi untied the saber at his waist and placed it in the middle of the chessboard.

The current political forces of the Han Dynasty are divided into three groups, eunuchs, relatives, and scholars; It's just that the first two have been fighting for the past few years, and they are very happy, which makes people ignore the forces of the Shi clan who are deeply hidden behind them. Now that the eunuchs and their relatives are evenly matched, and both sides are exhausted, at this time, the strength of the Shi clan gate valve has become the key, and whoever the Shi clan helps can win this game of chess.

Zhang Yang, who comprehended the meaning, immediately lit up in his eyes, and Xiao Yi's reminder made him suddenly open his mind, and began to really jump out of this game of chess, and saw many problems that had been puzzled before as a bystander.

"Then Xiao Lang thinks this sword will be put on the other side of the chess game?" Zhang Yang hurriedly asked excitedly, and changed his title to a cordial honorific title: "Xiao Lang!" "This title has long been famous in the four counties of Yanmen with that 'Chiyou Ghost Face'.

"The last general heard that the 'Ten Standing Attendants' openly bid for the official, "Since the Guanneihou, Huben, and Yulin, each has a price difference; Three public 10 million money, Qing 5 million yuan. 2,000 stone official rank, priced at 20 million yuan; 1,000 stone official rank, priced at 10 million yuan, and so on - the county order, the length and so on, depending on the size of the county's ground and the wealth of the people. Instead of going straight back to the question, Yat said something that seemed unrelated.

Zhang Yang, who is old in the officialdom, how can he not understand the deep meaning, for hundreds of years, the way of electing officials of the Han Dynasty has been firmly controlled by the scholars through the method of "filial piety and honesty", and now the "Ten Standing Servants" openly collect money and sell officials, not only seriously damage the interests of the scholars and the door lords, but also give these officials who pride themselves on Confucianism a great humiliation, in the past, the eunuchs used the imperial power, arrogant, and the scholars had to temporarily retreat; now the Han Ling Emperor's body is getting weaker and weaker, and the relatives and eunuchs are evenly matched, It is self-evident which side the Scholar Gate Lord, as the third force, will stand on.

"Xiao Lang is worthy of being the founding prime minister of the Han Dynasty, he is really resourceful!" , Now the situation in Luoyang City is changing, how many politicians and veterans can't see the situation in front of them clearly, but I didn't expect that the boy in front of him, who is only seventeen years old, will analyze the situation so thoroughly in a few words; Zhang Yang, who listened to it, couldn't help but praise it.

After thinking about the questions all the way, there was finally an answer, Zhang Yang's originally tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and the tiredness on his face began to emerge.

"Rest early, adults, you should enter Luoyang City tomorrow!"

"Okay, Xiao Lang has had a hard time all the way, you should rest early!"

"No!"

When he walked to the door of the big tent, Xiao Yi turned around and glanced at the chess game coldly, in fact, there was one thing, he didn't say it, in addition to the results of one win and one defeat in Go, there is also an extremely tragic chess game called ---both losers!"
