Inside the West Mansion, Liu Hong laughed loudly, this voice could be transmitted outside the West Mansion, and the ears of those who had been wondering what Liu Hong and Jia Xu had said.

Among them, there is naturally Zhang Rang who has been staying outside the West Mansion, but, obviously, although he can hear Liu Hong's laughter, and vaguely guess that it is Jia Xu's strategy to make Liu Hong happy, but it is obvious that he can't know at all. couldn't help but feel that Zhang Rang hated that Jia Xu so much, and then he was also resentful of Fu Quan, who thought in his heart that Jia Xu was behind him, all this must be the conspiracy of the Song family and the Fu family, in order to prevent His Majesty from favoring them, which is really hateful.

However, no matter how jealous Zhang Rang was, Liu Hong and Jia Xu who were in the West Mansion at the moment obviously couldn't hear it, although the two had discussed a general plan, but if they wanted to implement it, they obviously needed to continue in-depth exchanges.

"Jia Qing, after the military parade, I will transfer the troops in Beijing to Liangzhou to quell the chaos." Liu Hong opened his mouth and said, after understanding Jia Xu's strategy, he wanted to transfer all the elites in Beijing that he had prepared for nearly a year to Liangzhou, after all, if he wanted to do it once and for all, he naturally had to come out of the nest.

"Your Majesty, must you not do this?" After Jia Xu heard this, his face changed, and he hurriedly stopped.

"Why?"

"Please think twice about Your Majesty, if the Xianbei tribes learn that Your Majesty is in trouble in Liangzhou, they will raise the country's troops to decide, they will be suspicious, and secretly send a detailed investigation of it, and then this policy will be like a stillborn baby, and it will be too late to regret it."

"Good! Good! What Qing said is very true, it is me Menglang, so according to Qing's opinion, what will I do? ”

When Liu Hong heard what Jia Xu said, he was also shocked into a cold sweat in his heart, and hurriedly regretted it. Indeed, just as Jia Xu said, if he were to be himself, if he knew that the enemy was pouring out his troops and quelling chaos on his own borders, he would also have doubts in his heart, and he would definitely send people to watch closely at that time, and if the enemy made any changes, he would definitely take targeted action as soon as possible. This is exactly what Liu Hong does not want to see, after all, this operation is based on the strategy of secrecy and confusing the enemy, once these two things are gone, it will not succeed at all.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the elite soldiers of the Beijing Division should be no more than 10,000 people at most, and they need to send good generals to them, pass through Liangzhou, enter the Xianbei place in the west, and harass behind enemy lines."

"That's true!" Liu Hong nodded in acquiescence, and then asked, "In Qing's opinion, who should go?" ”

"Former Taiwei Duan Gongye!"

"Duan Ying?" Liu Hong said silently, and then nodded in agreement: "Duan Ji is clearly suitable, but the princes of the court are afraid that they will not be ordered to lead the troops, and it will be difficult!" It's hard! Liu Hong naturally knows who Jia Xu is talking about, in this situation, can lead the troops to detour through Liangzhou to attack Xianbei, and can harass Xianbei behind the enemy, only Duan Cheng, one of the "Liangzhou Sanming", is the most suitable, after all, when he exterminated the Qiang, he often did things to cut off the Qiang people all the way to fight and raise the war, including the back road, which can be described as extremely rich in military experience.

Jia Xu naturally knew what Emperor Liu Hong meant by "difficult", think about it, after all, Duan Cheng had a history of defecting to the dead eunuch Wang Fu, for those foreign courtiers who hated eunuchs in the court and the opposition, Duan Cheng was a scourge, it would be good to let him be an official in Beijing, and it was impossible for him to lead the troops to the expedition alone.

Therefore, no matter how good Duan Cheng's military ability is and how famous he is, after he defects to the eunuchs, the foreign courtiers will not easily agree to him to lead the troops, even the emperor Liu Hong. After all, Liu Hong wants to mobilize Duan Cheng this time, and the name he uses is only to pacify the Qiang chaos, and this Qiang chaos is not a big deal, for the princes of the court, they will definitely not watch Duan Cheng continue to make meritorious contributions, and unless Liu Hong directly tells the truth, the princes of the court will agree to Duan Cheng to lead the troops, otherwise Duan Cheng will never have a chance.

Obviously, the current situation is that Liu Hong will not reveal the intention of transferring troops to Liangzhou if he is killed, after all, he is already afraid of the consequences of the news being leaked, and naturally he will not let it be told to the princes of the government and the opposition, and even after today, he will not even reveal a word about his confidants and eunuchs.

Of course, Liu Hong's thoughts have long been in Jia Xu's eyes, and he has already dealt with this, so he only heard Jia Xu continue: "It's difficult but it's not difficult, as long as the person leading the troops is not Duan Gong!" ”

"Isn't Duan Jiming?" Liu Hong was speechless, he didn't understand what Jia Xu meant for a while, and then he pondered carefully before saying: "Qing Zhiyan means to choose another good general as the main one, and order Duan Jiming to be the auxiliary?" ”

"Exactly!"

"Wonderful! That's a great statement! After hearing this, Liu Hong clapped his hands and praised, after all, if Duan Cheng is supplemented and another person is chosen as the main general, it can indeed make the ministers of the court shut up, but after thinking about it for a while, he suddenly felt that it was inappropriate, shook his head and said: "After all, Duan Jiming is two lieutenants, and he is a famous general of the Han Dynasty, he is good at fighting, he is good at fighting, he is good at side affairs, he is on the side of the first thing, he is on the side of the horse, he is half a life, and he looks at the Han Dynasty, who can compare with him, how can he be supplemented?" Zhang Huan? It is old and not out of office, and then with the gap between the two, how can it be used? ”

Indeed, Duan Cheng has guarded the border for the Han Dynasty for decades, and no one can compare this qualification in the current Han court, after all, he is one of the famous "Liangzhou Sanming" of the Han Dynasty. Looking at "Liangzhou Sanming", Huangfu Gui has passed away, Zhang Huan is now living at home, and he is old and in poor health, it can basically be said that except for these two qualified people, no one can compare with Duan Cheng.

Of course, even if the surviving Zhang Huan is the main one, I am afraid that neither Zhang Huan nor Duan Cheng will agree to cooperate, after all, there is a lot of dirt between the two. When Zhang Huan was the general of Duliao, he and Duan Cheng fought together to pacify the Qiang chaos, but because of their different concepts of treating Xiqiang, one supported the elimination of all, and the other wanted to be pacified while fighting, which can be said to be a fire and water.

Later, Duan Cheng became the lieutenant of Si Li, and it was precisely because of these things that he wanted to expel Zhang Huan to Dunhuang, thereby harming him, and Zhang Huan saw that Duan Cheng was attached to the eunuch, and in order to protect himself, he could only write a letter begging for mercy, so Duan Cheng thought that his fellow villagers were Liangzhou people in the face and let him go, but although Zhang Huan was spared, it did not mean that the two were completely reconciled.

After all, there are some things, with mustard, there is no hope at all, which is also the main reason why Liu Hong said that it is difficult for the two to cooperate.
