Chapter 59: Shuzhong Faction
After Ji Ling's army captured Mianzhu Pass in Zhang Liao, it arrived at Mianzhu Pass the next day, the army from Hanzhong entered the Shuzhong Plain from Mianzhu Pass in an endless stream, Ye Zhao was on the third day, with his personal entourage under the escort of Dian Wei arrived at Mianzhu Pass, Fuxian County is close to Fushui, although Zhang Lu did not take the waterway to attack Jiameng Pass, but gave Ye Zhao a good inspiration, the water transport of grain is faster than the land route, and it is safer, Ye Zhao these days, most of them are discussing the grain road with Zhao Wei and some Shu generals.
It wasn't until Mianzhu Pass was broken that Zhao Wei really knew Ye Zhao's plans, and the previous wavering mentality finally disappeared, and he recommended a lot of talents in the Bashu area for Ye Zhao in the past few days.
To say that this Shu is indeed an outstanding person, Zhao Wei recommended a few people, not seen in history, the background is not high, at most it is similar to Ye Zhao, but after Ye Zhao and Xi Zhicai's assessment, these people's abilities are not bad, they can be regarded as capable officials, and now Ye Zhao lacks this kind of talent, all of them were taken under Ye Zhao's command, and according to different abilities, they were assigned positions, Ye Zhao until this time, he finally said goodbye to the embarrassing situation of incompetent officials under the account.
As for loyalty...... Ye Zhao doesn't think about these vain things, he is in power for a day, and helps himself deal with government affairs, as for whether he is loyal or not, as long as he manages it properly, in fact, except for a small number of people, most people are blindly obedient, and it doesn't matter whether he is loyal or not, what he needs is the ability of these people.
"Lord, now that the Mianzhu Pass is broken, you only need to capture Luo County, then Shu County is in sight, and now the Shu County, Guanghan, and Qianwei are only 30,000 soldiers and horses! With the front of our army, it is easy to break, but there is one thing, and the lord should take precautions as soon as possible. After arriving in Mianzhuguan, Zhao Wei was obviously much more active than before, not only helping Ye Zhao introduce talents, but also actively making suggestions.
"Oh? What's the matter? Ye Zhao looked at Zhao Wei and smiled.
"If the emperor's uncle knows that he is invincible and retreats to Ba County, the lord will occupy the land of these three counties, and when he flees to Ba County, Shuzhong will not escape the situation of separation." Zhao Wei bowed.
Ye Zhao nodded when he heard this, looked at Zhao Wei with a smile and said, "Then I don't know, Jun Nian has a plan?" ”
"Don't dare." Zhao Wei said confidently: "In the lower and that Qianwei is too guarded by Ren Qi, engaged in Chen Chao have old friends, these two are dissatisfied with the emperor's uncle Yan Zheng for a long time, if the lord is willing, he can go to Qianwei to lobby, as long as the lord can break the emperor's uncle, they only need to fortify in the Qianwei area, and they will be able to intercept it!" ”
"Then there will be Lao Junnian to run this trip." Ye Zhao pondered for a moment and nodded.
Now with the addition of several cadres introduced by Zhao Wei, the dependence on Zhao Wei has also decreased a lot, the terrain of the Shuzhong Plain, these people are also familiar with it, but with the addition of the Shu people, Zhao Wei's influence under Ye Zhao will gradually expand, before Ye Zhao is based in Shuzhong, Zhao Wei's power is too great, and it will form a situation where the main is weak and the minister is strong.
Shuzhong Juncai, Ye Zhao wants to use it, but the premise is to be able to surround himself, not under himself, and then a small group appears.
"Don't worry, lord!" Zhao Wei smiled and arched his hand: "In addition, there is another minister who wants to recommend to the lord, if the lord can get the help of this person, then the land of Bashu will inevitably be all heroic!" ”
"Oh? Who is capable of doing this? Ye Zhaoqi said.
"Jalon!" Zhao Wei bowed.
"Jalon?" Ye Zhao raised his eyebrows, he had heard of this person, in the past, Ma Xiang claimed to be the Son of Heaven in Shu, gathered 100,000 people, and was arrogant, it was this Jia Long who gathered the local heroes to annihilate him, if it weren't for this person, Liu Yan's entry into Shu would probably not be so smooth, this is a capable character.
"I heard that this person is the one who welcomes the emperor's uncle, how can he help me?" Ye Zhao looked at Zhao Wei and frowned.
"Back to the lord, Qiande was indeed the person who welcomed the emperor's uncle, but after Shuzhong was pacified, the emperor's uncle was afraid of his prestige, so he was idle and ordered him to be a captain, but he did not have military power, and lived in Mianzhu County, if the lord can recruit this person, then the Shuzhong Hao clan will all be attached to the lord."
"Where is this man now?" Ye Zhao's eyes flashed, and he looked at Zhao Weidao.
"It's in this Mianzhu County." Zhao Wei bowed.
Mianzhu County and Mianzhu Pass are not far away, Ye Zhao has now broken Mianzhu Pass, and the county order of Mianzhu County has already fled, but Jia Long is an idle figure, there is no need to escape, and he is still in Mianzhu County.
"I'll go to visit in person when I have time!" Ye Zhao smiled and said: "The matter of Qianwei still needs to be run for a long time. ”
"Don't worry, my lord, I will leave here." Zhao Wei saluted Ye Zhao.
After Zhao Wei left, Xi Zhicai looked at Ye Zhao and said, "The lord seems to be unwilling to go to see that Jia Qiande?" ”
In other words...... I don't want to be a puppet! Ye Zhao leaned on the Hu bed, looked at Xi Zhicai and said, "Such a character, if it is not a last resort, how can Liu Yan abandon it?" ”
With Ye Zhao's understanding of Liu Yan, this is a person who knows how to forbear, and he also has enough heart, otherwise it would be impossible to gather many talents around him, but with Liu Yan's courage, he will idle Jia Long, you know, if it is really as Zhao Wei said, getting Jia Long alone is equivalent to getting the support of the Yizhou Shi clan, and Jia Long is the person who welcomes Liu Yan, why didn't Liu Yan use Jia Long but use Dongzhou Shi?
"I wonder what the lord wants to do with this?" Xi Zhicai said with a smile: "If you have Jia Long alone, you can get the support of the Shu sergeant clan, but in the future, I am afraid that you will have to govern Yizhou with the Shu sergeant clan." ”
This is also Ye Zhao's family background, the military power in his hands, and Hanzhong as a way out, otherwise I am afraid it will not be co-governance.
"Let's put it first!" Ye Zhao tapped his fingers on the armrest of the Hu bed, looked at Xi Zhicai and said with a smile: "Shuzhong can be governed slowly, I don't lack time now, first wait for me to take Chengdu/Du, and then see how Sergeant Shu responds, I waited for such a hard work to fight here, but I didn't let people share power with me." ”
"But this person can't be used, the lord wants to embrace Shuzhong, wouldn't it be a pity if this Shuzhong Junjie didn't use it?" Xi Zhicai looked at Ye Zhao and smiled.
"Shuzhong Junjie wants to receive, but I can't ask someone to collect it on my behalf, Zhicai can have found that these days, that Zhao Wei recommended, are all Shuzhong Hanmen, I haven't seen Shuzhong clan, since they don't want to come to worship, then they will use more Hanmen, in addition, the Dongzhou Shi can also be selected and recorded."
"But you have to defeat Liu Yan first, otherwise everything is just empty talk!" Xi Zhicai looked at Ye Zhao and reminded.
"The military advisor doesn't seem to have full confidence in me!" Ye Zhao looked at Xi Zhicai and said.
"That Zhang Lu is still stationed in Langzhong, if the lord can't fight quickly, Zhang Lu only needs to send troops to Fuxian, and he can cut off the retreat of our army!" Xi Zhicai didn't answer, just reminded.
"Then it's a quick fix!" Ye Zhao said with a smile: "Tomorrow, I will send troops to Luo County!" ”
