Chapter 1259: Entry
After listening to Luo Liang's intention, Guan Hongyu was dumbfounded. There is actually another Qin army that wants to defect to the Chu State, and there are still old gaps in the two groups. Guan Hongyu, who experienced the thrilling Chu State Incident ten years ago, saw that his knowledge was extraordinary, and in a blink of an eye, he figured out why the Chu State accepted Ma Chao, who had lost his family, and even did not hesitate to oppose the Ming State for this.
In the final analysis, I still don't feel at ease with Bian Wushuang!
But is that the way to go?
He couldn't guess whether Bian Wushuang had a ghost in his heart, but at least Bian Wushuang has now become the pillar of Chu in the east, he has just recovered Wanzhou, and is planning to recover the six eastern counties.
This stick is indeed a hard beating, but will it have some other effects? For example, Bianbu's enthusiasm to recover the six eastern counties?
Moreover, Bian Wushuang's son Bian Wenzhong is leading his troops to suppress bandits, will the court make Bian Wenzhong have some other thoughts? You must know that Bian Wenzhong's department is in the heart of the Great Chu Imperial Court.
Hearing Guan Hongyu's doubts, Luo Liang smiled disapprerovingly: "General Guan is too worried. The reason why Bian Wenwu is difficult to deal with is precisely because he has 50,000 strong border troops, don't look at him now he is respectful to the imperial court, but he is a real unruly man, never think that he will have any loyalty to Da Chu, he is all abandoned to the Qin State, and he does not have the slightest affection for hundreds of years, how can he have much loyalty to Da Chu? Naturally, if it is advantageous, it will be combined, and if it is not profitable, it will go."
Looking at Guan Hongyu, Luo Liang continued: "When he went to Da Chu, it was a desperate and helpless move, Ming destroyed Qin, and if the Bian family did not leave, he would inevitably become the funeral object of the Qin State, and he came to Da Chu just to rely on Da Chu and continue his Bian family's wealthy career. And our Great Chu is now in a difficult time, and we also need his army and his talents. I have to say that this person is indeed talented. But ah, the higher the talent of a person like him, the higher the danger."
"But isn't this a blatant tearing of the skin? Will this move by the imperial court anger Bian Wushuang and even make him rebel against Chu and join Qi?" Guan Hongyu asked worriedly.
Luo Liang laughed: "You're too worried! Throw? He thought, did his soldiers think? These hundreds of thousands of family members are the best hostages. Without these troops, what did he Bian Wushuang really defect to the Qi State? What's more, now Bian is divided into three and scattered all over the place? General Guan, this plan has been planned and arranged since Bian Wushuang entered Chu, and to this day, it is just the harvest season."
"So, the court judged that Bian Wushuang would inevitably swallow his anger?"
"He not only has to swallow his anger, but also does his best to make more contributions to my Da Chu, so as to show that he has greater value to my Da Chu than Ma Chao. Only in this way will he still be the commander of the Eastern Army of my Great Chu. Of course, as long as he shows his strength, Da Chu is not afraid to give him what he wants. There is nothing wrong with the Bian clan of the Qin State and the Bian clan of the Chu State becoming the Bian clan of the Chu State." Luo Liang laughed.
Guan Hongyu let out a long breath, I have to say that he still admires such a plan very much, thinks long-term, and even stifies such an unsettling hidden danger as Bian Wushuang. For Da Chu, it is still more beneficial than concealed to completely subdue Bian Wushuang and make Bian Wushuang completely become a loyal dog of Da Chu.
Just one thing, what about Ma Chao?
"Lord Luo, Ma Chao is willing to live in Anyang County, when he masters the hundreds of thousands of Qin people's families here, will he go to Xu Tu Bian Wushuang Bian Wenzhong's tens of thousands of Qin troops? The last general thought that he would definitely do this, in this way, the contradiction between him and Bian Wushuang would be inevitable, and even a great conflict would erupt, which would also be a big hidden danger for the political situation in the future of Da Chu!" Guan Hongyu asked rhetorically.
"I'm afraid they won't fight!" Luo Liang smiled coldly, "Only if they fight to the death can the imperial court grasp the greatest initiative. If the two of them really abandon the gap and move forward hand in hand, the court will be worried."
Thinking about it, Guan Hongyu nodded in recognition of Luo Liang's statement. It's just Lord Luo, I still have a doubt, but I don't vomit and feel unhappy in my heart."
Looking at Guan Hongyu, Luo Liang's heart was slightly helpless, but he was a little helpless, now he is not the same as before, he does not have much real power in his hands, and he has become an errand boy for the emperor. Although Guan Hongyu is only a local general, he not only has deep qualifications, but also has soldiers in his hands, and in Anyang in the future, Guan Hongyu's status is also crucial. So he could only be patient, and asked with a smile: "If General Guan has any ideas, just say it."
"Even though Bian Wushuang is powerful, but his soft threat is pinched in the hands of Ma Chao, and the harm is naturally greatly reduced, and although he is the commander of the Eastern Army, but in the Jinghu area, there are many large armies, and the forces are intertwined, the local army in Jinghu is listening to Zeng Lin, the soldiers and horses of Marshal Cheng Wuben are listening to Jiang Shangyan, and the soldiers and horses of Luo Liang and Luo Leopard are listening to you." Speaking of this, he smiled, which made Luo Liang a little embarrassed.
"Of course, it is still the 20,000 western army of General Suqian, as well as Ning Zhiwen's water army, these armies together constitute the eastern army of my Great Chu, although there are many soldiers and horses, but they will only twist into a rope in one thing, that is, to fight all the people and recover the six eastern counties. It can be said that Bian Wushuang wants to do something, and it is extremely difficult, he can't buy everyone, let alone people like these people, I'm afraid he can't buy them. In other words, Bian Wushuang seems to be powerful, but he does not have a real base. But if Ma Chao is appointed as the county guard of Anyang, it will be different."
Guan Hongyu exhaled a breath of turbidity: "Anyang, this place, you also know, as long as there is no war, it is a treasure land, there are many people, and it is rich, let Ma Chao master such a place, I am afraid that it will be difficult to control in the future, not to mention that he also has such a big killer weapon as Bian Bu's family, assuming that he has outstanding skills, pulling these troops over, it will definitely become a big disaster for the Chu State."
"A small Anyang, located in the west, what big waves can it make?" Luo Liang disagreed.
"Lord Luo doesn't dare to say that." Guan Hongyu shook his head and said: "Qin Feng defeated more than 600 people in the remnants of the army back then, and fled to Yue Country as a mountain bandit, who would have thought that in less than ten years, he would swallow Yue and destroy Qin and become a behemoth that can challenge Qi State?" Ma Chao fled to Anyang this time and got a place to recuperate, but in his heart, he didn't have this thought?"
Speaking of Qin Feng, Luo Liang's face changed slightly, this matter, he is the planner and participant, it can be said that most of the major events that have happened on the mainland in the past ten years are inextricably related to this matter. He wanted to turn over and go down in history, but it backfired, and he did it, but what he left behind was by no means a good reputation.
Extremely unhappy in his heart, he said in a deep voice: "Qin Feng is just an isolated case, not everyone can do it, and with the experience of the past, can't we still be the teacher of the latter?" General Guan, you are an important force to balance him in the future!"
"Me?" Guan Hongyu was taken aback.
"Yes, Ma Chao is the county guard of Anyang, and you will become the commander of the Western Army. Nominally speaking, even his Ma Chao's 5,000 Thunder Army will be your subordinates in the future!" Luo Liang laughed.
"How is this possible?" Guan Hongyu shook his head: "Don't say it's the 5,000 Thunder Army, it's the 10,000 Qin Army stationed in Anyang, if it happens, I'm afraid that I will only listen to Ma Chao in the future, then my Western Army is here, but it will be alone."
"It's okay, you will get more power and more support, and your General Guan's means, is it possible to lose to that Ma Chao? As long as you hold the well pass, you can make Ma Chao honest."
Guan Hongyu was silent for a moment, and then asked: "This matter, the Ming people will not give up, although I don't know the situation in the Luoying Mountains now, but I can imagine that the Ming army's army will inevitably track down, Lord Luo, if there is a conflict between the two sides, what should I do?"
"If the Ming people enter my Great Chu territory, it will be an invasion." Luo Liang said coldly: "I think the Ming people won't do this now, right?" Just laid down the Yongdu of Qin, after the victory, the troops are exhausted, and the soldiers' minds are inevitable, and now my Great Chu is confronting the Qi State, and the Ming people are also fighting with the Qi people in Zhaoguan, for the sake of a mere Ma Chao, the Ming people will not destroy the alliance with the Great Chu now. It's just some nonsense above the court, and General Guan doesn't have to worry too much about these things, the princes of the court will deal with them."
Guan Hongyu relaxed at this time: "In this way, I have one less thing to worry about. Those Thunder Army, are they going to enter the customs now?"
Luo Liang waved his hand: "No, I can't enter the customs for the time being, I'm here, one is to have a showdown with you, so that you can know it in your heart, so as not to conflict with the Qin people, and the other is to take Ma Chao into the customs, before Bian Wenhao, these cronies and generals of Bian Wushuang, the Thunder Army is likely to alarm Bian Wenhao and others, and it will give birth to great things." When we get rid of Bian Wenhao and the others, the Thunder Army will enter the territory of Anyang."
"That's the safest way to go." Guan Hongyu said with a smile.
"The Thunder Army is stationed outside the pass, I'm afraid that General Guan needs to provide them with some supplies so that they can stay outside first." Luo Liang said with a smile.
"Naturally, there is no problem." Guan Hongyu nodded and promised, "After they set up camp, I will send someone to send them food, vegetables and other things."
"Okay, General Guan will make some preparations first, and Zhai Changshi and I will go out to meet Ma Chao, and we will have to negotiate with him for some details."
Luo Liang and Zhai Ye went out of the pass, Jingjing Pass was immediately under martial law, only allowed to enter, not allowed to go out, until late at night, Luo Liang and his party returned to Jingjing Pass, stopped for a while, and then went straight to Anyang County.
Among this group of people, there is naturally Ma Chao, the prince of Qin.
Standing on top of the wall, looking at the people in the distance, Guan Hongyu said softly: "The mountain rain is coming, I hope everything goes well, and there are no additional incidents."
