Chapter 316: History Has Changed
"What did the eldest lady say, the situation was urgent, and Lin couldn't explain it to his wife, so he could only pretend to cooperate with Sun Hu. Fortunately, Mrs. did a lot of similar, and did not make Sun Hu suspicious, as long as the ladies and Miss Gongzi are fine, Mrs. Lin Rang scolds a few words is nothing! Tian Lin lowered his posture and tried his best to please the Yang Mansion. Suddenly, the Yang Mansion treated Tian Lin as a benefactor, full of respect, which made Tian Lin very proud of his actions.
After settling his family, Yang Ren immediately asked Zhang He about all the circumstances since Zhang Wei returned to Xicheng, Yang Ren was furious, and immediately searched for the remaining Sun Hu people and clansmen, and his eyes were blowing. As for all the arrangements and arrangements in Xicheng, Yang Yiyi reported to Zhang He for discussion, and Zhang He became the real controller of Xicheng.
Zhang He also knew his heavy responsibility, and immediately wrote a letter, sending a team of men and horses back to the Zhuxi camp to report to Zang Ba, and asked him to lead a large group of men and horses to come to guard the town to prevent Zhang Wei and Zhang Lu from making a comeback.
Zang Ba was overjoyed when he got the letter from Zhang He, and immediately ordered to bury the pot and cook immediately, and an hour later he pulled out the camp to the west and entered Xicheng.
An hour later, the Zhuxi battalion left only 1,000 men and horses to stay, rebuild the bridge, clear the surrounding bandits, maintain law and order, and the rest of the people rushed to Xicheng. Although it was dark, the moon was good, and the July night was not cold, but it was much easier than the daytime.
Zang Ba is even happier in his heart, now he has defeated the Hanzhong army and captured Xicheng, which can be said to be a great achievement, and the lord should be rewarded. But all this is after Zhang He came, everything is related to him, Zhang He is really a capable person, and he is really lucky to meet him. He made up his mind that he must get closer to Zhang He in the future, which will definitely benefit a lot, and the two of them are outsiders compared to Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and others, and they are all from other forces.
Zang Ba thought about his heart all the way, but he didn't expect that after resting twice, he was already five miles away from Xicheng, so he immediately ordered to rest on the spot and sent someone to report, and soon after, Zhang He and Yang Ren took Tian Lin and others out of the city immediately to greet them, and the team entered the city together.
With Zang Ba's 30,000 horses stationed, Xicheng was officially included in Liu Yong's rule, and Yang Ren was also relieved, not worried that Zhang Wei would lead the army to attack.
In the past few days, in addition to training troops, repairing fortifications, and handling various official affairs, several people have feasted with each other, but they also get along well and have a much deeper understanding of each other. However, everything is the Hanzhong class, and Jingzhou generals such as Zang Ba and Zhang He are the real leaders.
Half a month later, Sun Qian also took office with a letter of appointment to become the chief secretary of Xicheng, and Zang Ba temporarily replaced Xicheng Taishou, because there was no personal appointment from Liu Yong, and others did not dare to make decisions about personnel appointments and dismissals. At the same time, Yuan Lian, who was on the list of the state exam, also followed Sun Gan and was appointed to Xicheng to assist Zang Ba with Sun Gan.
As we approach August, the days are getting cooler and many leaves turn yellow overnight, reminding people of the changing seasons.
But at this time, Xicheng had close ties with Shangyong and Jingzhou, and the number of merchants increased, and it gradually became more prosperous than before. The situation in Xicheng was naturally clear by Zhang Lu's eyeliner, but if the east and west were attacked by the enemy on both sides, it was very uncomfortable, and he was sad all day long. After Liu Yong, who was in Yangping Pass, learned that Xicheng had succeeded, he wrote a letter in his own handwriting, praising Zang Ba and Zhang He, especially Tian Lin, who also specially praised Zang Ba as the Taishou of Xicheng, which made everyone in Xicheng rejoice.
Seeing that the situation was improving, they were about to give the order to attack Hanzhong from east to west, but Liu Yong and Zhang Lu were disrupted by a piece of news they got urgently, and they had to observe the situation first.
"Yuan Shao is dead!" Liu Yong sighed.
"Yuan Shao is dead?" Zhang Lu was shocked.
"No, no, it's changed!" Liu Yong suddenly got up and exclaimed.
Others don't know, but he knows that according to the normal development of history, Yuan Shao will die in May of the seventh year of Jian'an, that is, in May 202 AD, but now it is August, Yuan Shao has lived for three more months, and history has changed.
I don't know if it's because of a series of changes caused by the butterfly effect that I crossed over, which led to a change in the trajectory of history, but it did change.
It doesn't matter if any of this happens, the important thing is that once history changes, it means that the future situation will no longer change as you know, and no one knows how it will change.
Everyone was amazed and hurriedly asked what was the matter. Liu Yong suddenly came back to his senses, these words naturally can't be said to these people, maybe it is really the same as what is written in the ones he reads, there is a heavenly way to control everything, and the Dao will be punished by himself. He can fight with anyone, but he doesn't dare to fight with Heavenly Dao, he doesn't have the slightest courage.
Liu Yong had no choice but to say to everyone: "Since Yuan Shao is dead, the situation in Hebei will inevitably change greatly, without the banner of Yuan Shao, all parties will definitely go their own way, and they will inevitably be broken by Cao Cao, Cao Cao will unify Hebei with the momentum of Wanjun, the situation in the world is about to change greatly, and we must also do some response as soon as possible." ”
Everyone was thoughtful after listening to Liu Yong's words, Pang Tong and Li Hui nodded, Zhao Yun's eyes flashed, he didn't know what to think, Huang Zhong was puzzled: "According to what the lord said, will Cao Cao go south to conquer us immediately?" ”
And Wei Yan immediately said loudly: "I'm afraid of a bear, if he Cao Cao dares to come, I, Wei Yan, will be the first to cut off his head!" ”
Everyone was amused by Wei Yan. Liu Yong saw the desire for war in Wei Yan's eyes. In other words, Wei Yan is not eager for war, but eager to become a man of man through military exploits, and become a well-known general in the world. Liu Yong, who knows history, naturally knows Wei Yan's mind better.
So Liu Yong smiled slightly: "With a general like Wen Chang, he is naturally not afraid, but it is naturally better to reduce the loss of soldiers." Moreover, at present, our army is separated by Hanzhong, and if we want to take care of it, we need to try to seize Hanzhong as soon as possible. ”
Hearing Liu Yong's words, Wei Yan's face suddenly became a little ugly, and he also said that he wanted to kill Cao Cao, but now he didn't even take a small Yangping Pass, his face was red, and he didn't dare to speak anymore.
Liu Yong continued: "No one can say exactly how the situation has changed, but you should send more scouts to inquire about the news, and if there is any news from all parties, report it immediately!" ”
Liu Yong turned to Pang Tong and said: "Jin Tianwei must increase the intensity of investigation, and the movements of the princes of all parties must be fully controlled!" Orders were issued to all localities to take precautions to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the opportunity to plot misdeeds. ”
"No!" Pang Tong immediately took the order.
