Chapter 155 Kong Yuzhou acted arrogantly, and Dong Zhuojun went out to invite battle
The state of Yuzhou is in Xu Chu's hometown Peiguo County, and Kong Ling set off from Peiguo and naturally arrived in Yingchuan earlier than Xu Chu. Listening to Chen Qun's tone, he and Guo Jun seemed to be dissatisfied with Kong Ling, presumably something had happened in Yingchuan County before he came.
Xu Chu was not busy asking, and thought: It seems that it is not good to go directly to Yangzhai today, so it is better to camp near this Yan County.
Compared with Yanling County, Yangzhai is the county governor of Yingchuan County, which is larger and stronger, which is more conducive to gathering soldiers and horses. In Xu Chu's marching arrangement, the first step was to occupy Yang Zhai, and then see if he could hold Yang Cheng in his hands. But now Dong Zhuo has expressed Li Min as the Taishou of Yingchuan, with Li Min's status as a celebrity, and with his experience in Yangcheng, I am afraid that he has joined forces with Kong Ling at this time and firmly holds the two places in his hands.
The military order was transmitted to the rear army, and the commanders of the various departments drove their troops to the vicinity of Yanxian. On the one hand, Xu Chu ordered the loyal to pass on the order to restrain military discipline, Yingchuan is the place where he made his fortune, and the people of the county still have old feelings for Xu Chu, so the army must be strictly disciplined and noisy nuisance must be prohibited.
Although the newly recruited soldiers from Guangling and Danyang have not undergone long-term training, under the leadership and restraint of officers at all levels such as Xu Chu's subordinates, Qu, and Tun, they look decent and have high morale.
After setting up the camp, Chen Yi was busy reporting several things to Xu Chu: first, after Xu Chu went to Lujiang, Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao because of the face of Cao Cao and Xu Chu himself, and raised Zhang Feng as the county commander of Yu County, and in Yanling, Chen Yi did the county lieutenant with the help of Du You, Zhang Li and others, and the county officials of the two counties became their own private soldiers during this time, with a number of 1,000 people. Among these thousand people, some of them are the light heroes that Dian Wei recruited in Jiwu at the beginning, and some of them are apprentices and swordsmen sent by the powerful people of the two counties, and their combat effectiveness is quite considerable.
The second is about Cai Yong's father and daughter. During this period of time, Cai Yong was recruited into the court by Dong Zhuo three times, but none of them were recruited, and finally Dong Zhuo forced him tightly, and Chen Yi sent someone to hide Cai Yong's father and daughter, so Cai Yong was not recruited into the court by Dong Zhuoqiang as in history. Xu Chu was overjoyed, Chen Yi did a good job. In fact, Cai Yong must have the idea of entering the court, but he can't hinder the figure of a celebrity to accept Dong Zhuo's expedition, if there is no Chen Yiheng to intervene, Dong Zhuo is under duress, he will also borrow the slope to get off the donkey and go to Luoyang. Cai Yong has always been in Xu Chu's plan, especially when the situation has developed to the present, and the princes are just around the corner, and having such a 'big Buddha' under his rule should be able to attract a group of loyal scholars to join him.
The third is that Cao Cao left Chenliu County half a month ago, and is currently stationed in Yu County, waiting for Xu Chu's arrival. At this moment, a messenger may have been sent to contact us.
"Cao Mengde is in Chenliu, which is closer to Yingchuan County than Kong Yu Prefecture, but he is not in a hurry to enter the territory of Yingchuan, probably because he is not willing to face Kong Yu Prefecture alone before I arrive." Thinking like this, the big tent of the Chinese army has been arranged, and Xu Chu invited everyone to sit in the tent.
Also in the account are the captains of various ministries, Sima and other chief officials.
After everyone sat down, Xu Chu first introduced Chen Qun and Guo Jun, two famous people from Yingchuan, to Wenwu.
Chen Qunfei is an arrogant person, and after seeing the ceremony one by one, he said in his heart: At the beginning, Xun Youruo and I both said that it was difficult for this son to become a climate, so he persuaded the family to lead Xu Chu to join Yingchuan. To this day, looking at the ministers and warriors in his tent, they still underestimate him.
After the words of entertainment, Xu Chu immediately asked what major events had happened in the county recently, and the implication was that he was also asking why Chen Qun and Guo Jun came to the county boundary to greet them.
Guo Jun said: "General, half a month ago, Yuan Che rode to the Bohai Sea, and the world shook. After Dong Zhuo got the news, he actually sent people out of the customs to loot Yangcheng and Lunshi counties. After Dong Zhuojun entered Yangcheng, the officials of Yangcheng fled when they heard the news, and the people in the county did not have time to react, so they were driven and killed by the rebels who entered the city, and looted the county's goods and women, and drove back to Luo. When Li Min arrived in Yingchuan, he dismissed Du and Zhang Erjun from their positions without asking any questions, and took the county guards into his possession; Then he opened a warehouse to get grain, and recruited soldiers in Yangzhai, and the number was 5,000. ”
Xu Chu muttered in a low voice: "I see." Then he asked, "What about Kong Yuzhou after he arrived in Yingchuan?" ”
Guo Jun replied: "Kong Yuzhou is a famous person in the sea, and he is known for his name. As soon as he arrived in the county, Du and Zhang Erjun invited me to go to Kong Yuzhou and ask him to comment. But unexpectedly...... Unexpectedly, in order to ask Li Min for help, Kong Yuzhou only suppressed the matter and did not talk about it. After speaking, don't turn your face away, hate and be silent.
Du and Zhang Erjun are Xu Chu's old acquaintances, Du You and Zhang Li. After Xun Chen and Xun Yu went to Jizhou, the county guards should have been under the command of the two of them. The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, the Yingchuan Shi clan is the head snake of Yingchuan County, and they hope that all the local 'strong dragons' can be like Yin Xiu and Xu Chu, reuse them and respect them. But as soon as Kong Ling and Li Min entered Yingchuan, they immediately took away the military power in their hands, and this kind of behavior of not following the rules has already violated their bottom line.
Xu Chu understands Kong Ling's approach very well.
Considering Kong Ling's position, as a state assassin history, it is inevitable that there will be thoughts in his heart that should not appear. In order to realize this idea, it is necessary to firmly control the military power in the hands and not let it be hindered. It is conceivable that Li Min and Kong Ling, I am afraid that they would have 'secretly communicated with the song' and started to deal with the Yingchuan clan. It is easy to understand that Guo Jun has a 'Li Min', and he has no respect for the new Yingchuan Taishou.
On the surface, Kong Ling and Li Min are both celebrities, and it seems that they should not attack the Yingchuan clan and force the Yingchuan clan to the opposite side of themselves. In fact, it was precisely because the two of them were celebrities that they knew the thoughts of the people in the scholar clan very well, so they had to cut through the chaos quickly and concentrate on dealing with the great enemy Dong Zhuo and the potential enemies Xu Chu and Cao Cao.
What is the idea of the Yingchuan Shi clan? That is: whoever is in charge can do it, but no matter who it is, it can only be used as a 'passerby', only I am a family, Qingshan does not change the flow of water, and will always be the master of Yingchuan County.
Kong Ling naturally won't agree, and similarly, Xu Chu and Cao Cao won't agree, if Kong Ling doesn't do it, Xu Chu and Cao Cao will do it, but they won't use such an obvious and clumsy method.
Xu Chu smiled slightly, and said to Chen Qun and Guo Jun: "Kong Yuzhou's approach is indeed out of grace, and when I see Kong Yuzhou, I will definitely advise one or two, please rest assured." Anyway, Changwen, Kong Yuzhou hasn't sent anyone to look for you since he arrived? ”
Chen Qun said with a smile: "Qun is a vulgar person in the mountains and wilderness, how dare he be requisitioned by the state capital, and he has always been in poor health, so he resigned." ”
Xu Chu said 'oh', I'm afraid it's not that he's not in good health, it's just that he doesn't look down on Kong Ling.
I also heard Chen Qun say: "Zhongkang, I heard that you are coming to Yingchuan, Du Jun and Zhang Jun are very happy, I just hope that you will not learn from Kong Yuzhou and practice tyrannical politics......"
"I understand the painstaking work of the long text."
After sending Chen Qun and Guo Jun away, Xu Chu returned to the tent.
Yao Sheng said: "The famous clan of the Chen family in Xu County, I heard about it when I was an official in various places. Ming Gong, looking at Chen Changwen's words today, seems to have a lot of complaints about Kong Yuzhou, but to Ming Gong, he has no intention of being close to him, just a little welcome, a little advice. ”
Xu Churan.
The arrival of Chen Qun and Guo Jun should be expressing two meanings: you are here, we welcome you, and you can provide some support; But the premise is that you can't be as 'rude' as Kong Ling and Li Min.
Someone outside the door suddenly shouted: "Yangcheng emergency!" ”
Xu Chu's buttocks had just stuck to the mat, and when he heard the words, he stood up again and walked quickly to the door of the tent, "What's the matter?" ”
"Returning to the general, Dong Zhuo's army is out of Yuyuan Pass, divided into two parts, and is approaching Yangcheng and Lunshi two counties!"
"How much do you ride? Who is the leader? ”
"I don't know!"
"Let's go again!"
Xu Chu pressed the knife with his hand, turned around and said with a smile: "Zhuqing, I'll have a good show." ”
