Chapter 23: Reunion Ding Yuan

After Xuanyuan Pass, it is actually not far from Luoyang, and besides, Gao Ye brought cavalry this time, so the march was naturally faster. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info After he received He Jin's order, it only took two days for the army to be stationed in the east of Luoyang City. It's not because the feng shui in the east of the city is good, but because Ding Yuan's people and horses are stationed here.

Since Ding Yuan received He Jin's order, he immediately led his troops and horses to burn Mengjin. The fire is blazing, even in Luoyang, it can be seen, but unfortunately such a move did not scare the Empress Dowager He, so he was transferred to Luoyang by He Jin's order. But the problem is that although Ding Yuan is a thorn in the history of the state, when he came to Luoyang, he couldn't make any waves, so he could only be obediently stationed under the city.

It was precisely because Gao Ye already knew that Ding Yuan was in the east of the city, so he led the army without even entering the gate of Luoyang, so he went directly to the east of the city, next to Ding Yuan's camp, and let his men and horses set up camp, and he went directly to see Ding Yuan. Anyway, it's also his old boss, and he has a close relationship with his master, and since he is here, he should go to see him.

As for Ding Yuan, when he heard that Gao Ye led the army to Luoyang, he ordered his guards to prepare wine and food, and he had known Gao Ye for so long, and he still knew Gao Ye's character very clearly. Except that he didn't expect Gao Ye to actually set up the camp next to him, he guessed very accurately that he was going to visit tonight.

Gao Ye walked to the gate of Ding Yuan's military camp, and the guards guarding the gate hurriedly ran up: "General Gao, you can be regarded as here, your lord has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Gao Ye just smiled, patted the soldier's shoulder and said, "Zhang Quan, when you followed me back then, you were a military commander, why are you coming to see the gate now?" Gao Ye quipped.

"General, don't talk nonsense, I'm a team leader now! Isn't it my turn to guard the camp gate? ”

"That's good, it's going to rise quite fast, and it's all in the team."

"Hey, if it weren't for the general, you and General Lu would have scared the Huns, how could I be a military marquis now, and it would have taken me five years to rise to the team rate, which is too slow."

"Haha, it's good to be promoted to the team rate, think about how many brothers don't even have a chance to be promoted. You're too embarrassed to complain here! ”

Zhang Quan smiled and didn't answer, but led Gao Ye to the door of the big tent and motioned for Gao Ye to go in by himself. Gao Yeren hadn't gone in yet, but he smelled the aroma of wine first, and it seemed that this Ding Yuan had already prepared.

As soon as Gao Ye entered the big tent, it was Ding Yuan's smiling face that greeted Gao Ye, not only got up directly to greet Gao Ye, but also patted Gao Ye's shoulder and praised him as a young hero.

"Okay, Mingxi, I heard that you were appointed as the Taishou of Yingchuan back then, but I have been worried about you for a long time. In that place in Yingchuan, there are many families, and you have no foundation, I can keep the Wuyuan captain for you, I am afraid that you will be driven back by these families in Yingchuan, and you have a place to continue to serve the country. ”

"Thank you uncle for your concern." When Gao Ye heard this, he couldn't help but be a little moved, people like Ding Yuan may really regard himself as his own nephew, and when he heard Gao Ye's promotion, the first thing he thought about was not how proud he was Gao Ye, but how he could have a stable retreat after Gao Ye suffered a setback. Thinking about defeat in order to win is not always on the battlefield, but also politically necessary.

"But Mingxi, you didn't disappoint the old man, you were stunned to treat these Yingchuan families well, okay! Not only that, but also a ruined Yingchuan is so prosperous, the old man listened to what those businessmen said, your Yingchuan, prosperity is almost comparable to Luoyang. I would have known that you were so powerful, and I wanted him to do what he did, just let you be that Wuyuan Taishou. ”

"Uncle's words are not right, if I hadn't been in Wuyuan to see how the governor Taishou governed the place, I wouldn't have managed Yingchuan so well. You don't know, don't look at me as a captain on weekdays, I just train soldiers or something, as long as I have the opportunity, I will carefully observe how the governor governs. If you had directly made me the Taishou of Wuyuan back then, not to mention that the people would be stable, it would have been good if there would be no disasters to the country and the people. Gao Ye also laughed, and by the way, he told the story of his time in Wuyuan. First, this is the intersection of the lives of himself and Ding Yuan, and there are naturally many common topics; Second, I also explained that my knowledge was not for nothing, and that I was a good boy who worked hard and made progress; Thirdly, Ding Yuan is old in the end, and he always loves to reminisce when he has nothing to do, and he accompanies him to reminisce at night, which can be regarded as the respect that a junior should have for his elders.

"But sir, how did you keep your army outside the city? Since the general has sent us here to deter the eunuchs, it is naturally better to enter the city. Gao Ye has always wanted to ask Ding Yuan this question, and in later life, he was puzzled by Ding Yuan's behavior. He originally had tens of thousands of horses, but he had been stationed outside the city, and he didn't even know about the palace incident, and all the ministers went to look for the emperor, but he didn't know what he was doing. In the end, Dong Zhuo's guy was cheaper in Beibi Mountain. You must know that Dong Zhuo only had 5,000 men and horses at that time, and now Ding Yuan has 20,000 troops here, and there are fierce generals like Lu Bu, if Ding Yuan went to Beibi Mountain and saved the Han Emperor, I am afraid that all Dong Zhuo's plans will be in vain.

"Alas, I originally arrived in Luoyang at noon yesterday and wanted to enter the city, but I didn't know that the city gate official would not allow me to enter! He also said that he had obeyed the order of the Queen Mother and ordered me to be stationed outside Luoyang City! ”

"Uncle made a mistake. At that time, he should directly kill the city gate officials and lead the team into the city! The Queen Mother knew that He Jin mobilized us to deal with the Ten Standing Attendants, and the Ten Standing Attendants naturally knew it. The Queen Mother was afraid that she didn't want the general to monopolize the government, so she protected Zhang Rang and others. Besides, Dong Zhuo is now stationed in the Sunset Pavilion, which is also a wolf's ambition. If you entered the city directly yesterday, then Empress Dowager He would have to give up because she was afraid of her uncle's military might if she wanted to protect the Ten Standing Servants. Now that my uncle is out of town, I can't enter the city, so I'm afraid that there will be chaos. Gao Ye shook his head.

"Although Dong Zhuo is a little unruly, I just saw that he was defeated by the Yellow Turban first, and then defeated by Beigong Boyu, but he is a mediocre person, don't worry too much."

"Then Dong Zhuo ......" Gao Ye said halfway, and he really didn't know how to say it, after all, judging from Dong Zhuo's performance now, he is indeed not a powerful character. Can Gao Ye tell Ding Yuan that he will die at the hands of Dong Zhuo in the end? Don't look at his haste to march and fight, but when he rises to the height of strategy, Dong Zhuo is really not very good at it. But he has a good son-in-law, Li Ru, although Li Ru's talent is like a flash in the pan in the Three Kingdoms, but that moment also amazed this era.

"That's it, Mingxi, let's not talk about this, let's prepare for a banquet." Ding Yuan interrupted Gao Ye with a smile, and ordered the guards at the door to call Lu Bu and them over, after all, Gao Ye is here, and there is nothing big about it now, so it is better to have fun together.

Before Lu Bu arrived, the sound came first, and there was a hearty laugh, and Gao Ye estimated that it came from twenty meters away. Sure enough, as soon as the curtain was lifted, Lu Bu's tall body squeezed in. When he saw Gao Ye, he didn't say a word, he came with a bear hug first, and Gao Ye's hand that had just arched had to be put down quickly.

With Lu Bu coming in together, there were also Song Xian, Wei Xu, and Hou Cheng, and they all gave their own salutes when they saw Gao Ye. Among the three people, only Wei Xu and Gao Ye were the least familiar, because when he was the captain of Wuyuan, Gao Ye was not famous, and the two naturally did not have much communication. After Gao Ye became famous, he had already trained with Lu Bu, and at most he had only chatted with Gao Ye at the banquet, unlike Hou Cheng and Song Xian, who had really fought side by side with Gao Ye on the battlefield. Therefore, compared to those two, Wei Xu couldn't help but feel a little more restrained.

"Mingxi, I really want to kill my brother, you are not in Bingzhou, I don't want to find someone to fight! Before you went on the expedition, I could still compete with Zilong, but you even took Zilong away, today, no, tomorrow, we have to have a good fight, let me also see, you, a civil official, did you leave all your martial arts behind, hahahaha. Lu Bu laughed.

"Brother Feng is interested, and the younger brother will naturally accompany him." Gao Ye also laughed.

"Mingxi, you can drink a few more glasses today, do you know, just because you took Zilong away, the three of us were dragged by the general to compete every once in a while, and if you say it's a competition, isn't it beating! We'll have to settle this account tonight. Song Xian also accosted on the side, too, anyone who is okay will be beaten by his own general, which is also troublesome enough.

"Okay, good, happy today, no one refuses. Hahahaha. Gao Ye said with a heroic smile on the side.

"You guys, if you don't learn from Mingxi, you just care about drinking." Ding Yuan shook his head and quipped, "Especially Fengxian, I always tell you to read more, but you just don't listen, look at Mingxi, people are not only famous generals now, but also a rare talent in my Han Dynasty!" ”

"Father-in-law, you told me to study, didn't you kill me? Mingxi is a good reader, that's his ability, but isn't his martial arts as good as mine! It's called ...... Called...... What's it called, Mingxi? ”

"The ruler is short, and the inch is long."

"Yes, the ruler is short and the inch is long! I've been in Bingzhou all these years, which time didn't kill the Huns to throw away their armor and flee in the wilderness, I don't want to read this book. Lu Bu shook his head vigorously on the side and said, "And my father-in-law, if you have to get me a master book now, won't you let me go to the border to kill the enemy?" ”

"Isn't it so that you can read more books? It will not be difficult to get in and out of the future phase! You, you just don't want to be motivated! ”

"I don't want to go out and out, just be able to kill the Huns."

Gao Ye listened to such a conversation on the side, and couldn't help but laugh a little, speaking of which the two of them really seem to be father and son, especially in this state of talking, the whole one hates the father who can't make iron and steel and his lazy son. And this father has nothing to do with this son.

This kind of scene is very familiar to Gao Ye, wasn't this how he and his father were like this back then? It's just that I don't know why, Lu Bu actually killed Ding Yuan in the end, and according to Gao Ye's understanding of Lu Bu now, it is really incomprehensible. If you don't understand, you don't understand, when something happens, it's a big deal to ask Lu Bu yourself?
