Chapter 384: Xiahou's Legacy
Zhang Fei brought Liu Bei's will, named Ma Chao as the Marquis of Huaili, faked Liangzhou, was responsible for the defense of Liangzhou, and selected more war horses to support the Central Plains of the army to crusade against Cao Wei; moved Huang Quan to Yongzhou Thorn History, General Anxi, Tun Chang'an; moved Wei Yan to be the general of the expedition to the north; Meng Da is too guarded to soothe the wind......
For the Qiang and Di Haoqiang who contributed to this war, they were rewarded one by one, and those former Cao Wei officials who surrendered the city changed their Han positions, or received the old land, or added promotions, and so on.
"Da Sima calmed Yongliang in one fell swoop, and made great contributions, and his reward was ...... Its reward ......" Zhang Fei raised his eyes and blinked twice, "I didn't say it!" ”
The crowd was stunned. Ge Liang hurriedly thanked him first: "Long live my emperor, long live!" ”
I haven't rewarded it yet, what are you thanking for? Zhang Fei deliberately frowned, lowered his head and continued to recite the holy decree: "In view of the fact that Da Sima invited himself to Wancheng to discuss the plan with the officials, he will be rewarded in person after he arrives. The expedition on the west road was temporarily handled by Zhang Fei, the general of the chariot cavalry. Chin this! ”
So that's the case, all the officials came back to their senses and hurriedly thanked them together.
"It's all done according to your will, you can't blame me." Zhang Fei smiled and first stated that he didn't want to pick up the fruits of victory.
"Then all the armies in this pass will be entrusted to the general." Ge Liang smiled, you came just in time, and it is difficult for others to do something.
So a banquet was set up to catch the wind and wash the dust, and the defense affairs were handed over, and everything was tense and orderly.
Ge Liang smiled and praised Zhang Fei: "The general is famous, and now that he is leading the army to approach Luoyang, the generals of the Wei army are naturally worried about the general going down the river day and night, but they are afraid that the night will be uneasy." ”
Zhang Fei asked rhetorically: "I can't wait to kill it now, but I heard that you suggested to the emperor that Chang'an should suspend the attack on Luoyang, so before I came, the emperor specially told me not to be impatient, but now you are saying such things to me, what is going on?" ”
"Oh, yes, yes, don't be impatient, don't be impatient! I mean, but with the prestige of General Zhang, although you don't really attack with all your might, it is still very useful to harass the enemy defenders on Hangu Road from time to time to scare them. Ge Liang hurriedly explained.
Zhang Fei was a little unhappy: "It's all hit Hangu Pass, and Wancheng is also hit in the south, and the two-way attack is a good time to take Luoyang, but you have to wait." Since I have to wait, why am I coming all the way here, why don't we all stay where we are and drink well? ”
Ge Liang had no choice but to find another reason: "Of course it can't be a death wait, marching from Hangu, the terrain is blocked, and it is not good for us." Even if you want to attack Luoyang, of course, it is best to advance by land and water? I'm just asking you to come here and train the trolls. The sergeants on our side are only good at mountain warfare, cavalry warfare, and water warfare. ”
Could this be the reason? Zhang Fei didn't believe it: "If you want to train the navy, then the general is better at it, right?" ”
"The emperor sent you, naturally thinking that you are also very good at training sailors. Didn't you stay in Jingzhou for so many years? On what basis do you conclude that your training of the naval army is much worse than that of General Guan? I'll see you do! "Ge Liang is going to use the radical method.
Zhang Fei actually counted down: "You have been in Jingzhou much longer than us." ”
"Nonsense!" Ge Liang retorted, "When you led the troops in Jingzhou for many years, I was still farming in the countryside of Nalongzhong!" ”
Well? It seems to be the same thing, Zhang Fei no longer argues, after all, people say that he will not be worse than Guan Yu in training the navy, which sounds quite useful.
Ge Liang also took advantage of the situation to change the topic: "General Zhang, I heard that before you arrived in Jingzhou, you just got married not long ago, right?" ”
Why did you suddenly talk about this? Zhang Fei was a little proud and a little embarrassed: "This is all an old thing, why do you mention this at this time?" ”
Ge Liang blinked, raised his head to the sky, sighed, and then turned his head to ask Zhang Fei: "Alas, I heard that Xiahou and Xiahou Yuan are the descendants of Xiahou Ying, the servant of the early Han Dynasty?" ”
"That's not it!" Zhang Fei replied quickly, and then seemed to realize that something was wrong, and quickly scratched his head and looked away.
It's because people are famous, my Lao Zhang robbed his girl, but he married a wife!
"Let's go! I'm going to leave for Wancheng in two days, and it may be difficult to get together with the general in the short term, so why don't you take advantage of this leisure time, let's take a walk together, take a walk, and take you everywhere by the way, and explain some specific affairs? Ge Liang seemed careless.
Zhang Fei nodded: "It's okay, why don't you find a good place and have a few drinks in advance for you to practice?" ”
"Good!" Ge Liang nodded in agreement, "I'll take you to a place where it's quiet and no outsiders disturb you." Let's have a good drink! ”
"What's the best place?" Zhang Fei raised his feet and left.
"Go slow!" Ge Liang didn't want to hurry too fast, "I took you there, not you took me!" ”
Zhang Fei only consulted: "You don't need to bring wine and meat, right?" ”
"No, no, no." Ge Liang shook his head, "Wine and meat are already prepared there. I won't take anyone else, no one will rob you. ”
Zhang Fei hurriedly slowed down, kept parallel to Ge Liang, and pretended to be angry: "What did Da Sima say?" It's like I, Zhang Fei, am an alcoholic! ”
Isn't it clear to you! Ge Liang smiled slightly, "Let's talk while walking, let's get in touch with the brothers." ”
"Well, let's talk, brotherhood, brotherhood." Zhang Fei nodded again and again, interested in this topic.
Ge Liang didn't say anything about his brotherly relationship with Zhang Fei, and the topic still returned to Xiahou's family: "When it comes to feelings, Xiahou Ying's affection for Gaozu at the beginning is really incomparable." ”
Zhang Fei naturally knew Xiahou Ying's story, but if Ge Liang wanted to say it, he was willing to listen to it again.
According to the "Book of Han", when Gaozu was not in trouble, he once played with Xiahou Ying and inadvertently injured Xiahou Ying. Some people accuse Gaozu of hurting people, and Gaozu must be held criminally responsible. Gao Zu could only say that he had not injured Xiahou Ying, and also said that Xiahou Ying himself could testify. That Xiahou Ying didn't want Gao Zu to have an accident, so he really told the officials who came to hold him accountable that he had never been injured by Gao Zu, and he sat in prison for more than a year, and he was beaten by hundreds of boards, but he was sure that there was no such thing, and finally succeeded in helping Gao Zu escape from responsibility. Alas, such a person is really rare in the world. Ge Liang sighed, but he sincerely sighed, there are really not many people like this in this world.
Zhang Fei's lips moved, wanting to say that there was something more admirable than this, but he didn't say it.
"I don't know if he ever thought that his descendants inherited his legacy, and even did it more thoroughly than him." Ge Liang then spoke for Zhang Fei: "Just today, there is another person in the Xiahou family who values love and righteousness. I heard that Cao Cao had committed a serious crime, and the government wanted to arrest him. The genius of the Xiahou family actually gave up his life to impersonate the crime, regardless of the consequences of his possible execution, and did his best to free Cao Cao, so he was imprisoned and almost executed, but fortunately, the situation changed, and the Cao family rescued him with great efforts, and finally got him out of the cage and saved his life. ”
"You, how do you know this?" Zhang Fei was surprised, outsiders generally don't know about this, he heard his wife talk about it quietly, how could this big Sima, an outsider, know such a secret thing about the Cao family and the Xiahou family?
I read it in the Pei Note of "Three Kingdoms"! Ge Liang couldn't explain, and continued: "Back then, Gaozu and Xiang Yu had an unfavorable war, Xiahou Ying drove Gaozu to escape, and met Emperor Xiaohui and Princess Lu Yuan on the way, so they fled in a carriage. The pursuit of the enemy was approaching, and Gao Zu was in a hurry, so he kicked his two children out of the car many times to reduce the load and escape quickly. Xiahou Ying carried the two back to the car many times, wanting to save them and escape together, even if Gaozu was angry and wanted to draw his sword to kill him many times, he had no intention of looking back. ”
Zhang Fei glanced at Ge Liang and didn't say anything, he already knew what he was going to say next.
Ge Liang sighed again: "Did he not expect that many years later, their family Xiahou Yuan, because of the famine and no food at home, in order to save the only daughter left by his dead brother, would be ruthless, abandon his young son on the side of the road, and save rations to feed the poor girl?" Alas, the people of the Xiahou family, who have given up their lives as people, really can't count them. ”
Zhang Fei sounded very sad, his wife was almost starving to death back then, he didn't want others to mention it, seeing that there were still many guards behind him, he hurriedly said to Ge Liang: "Don't say it." ”
"Huh? Doesn't it make people cry when you hear it? Then say something happy. Ge Liang then said, "Coincidentally, the two children saved by Xiahou Ying sacrificed their lives became emperors and princesses in the future. This Xiahou Yuan gave up his young son to save his dead brother and orphan daughter, and he also married ...... in the future Her children will definitely be rich and wealthy in the future, no, one becomes the crown princess, and she will be the queen in the future......"
Speaking of this, Zhang Fei was indeed happy, but he said: "Da Sima is abnormal today, he hasn't drunk this wine yet, so he is full of wine." ”
"Oh? Ha ha! Ge Liang also sighed, and was happy for Zhang Fei, "Haven't drunk yet?" It's almost there. ”
While talking, they had already bent many corridors and pavilions, and arrived at a quiet courtyard at the back of the house.
The grass and trees in the courtyard are flourishing, there is a pool of blue ponds next to the rockery, and there are three huts by the pool, where several sergeants are guarding.
Ge Liang smiled and said to Zhang Fei: "This is it." ”
Zhang Fei heard Ge Liang say so much, but remembered one thing, leaned in and asked softly: "I seem to have heard that Ma Chaosheng captured Xiahou Ba?" Is there such a thing? ”
It seems that Liu Bei remembered his words, and really didn't tell Zhang Fei, no wonder he has been here for more than a day, and he hasn't asked about it before! Ge Liang was so happy to tease him again that he asked, "Oh, there is such a thing?" Who do you listen to? ”
It seems that he heard it wrong, and Zhang Fei immediately pretended: "Is it drinking here?" It's quiet, too. However, lively places are more conducive to drinking. ”
"Good! Drink well today, don't get drunk and don't go home. Ge Liang smiled a little smugly.
