Chapter 395: Fire and Water
"You forgot? My uncle stayed in Shaanxi, and in the Western Army, all the generals who were born and grew up in the Western Army inevitably had some habits. Let's not say that I despise the imperial court.,Anyway, I never take the Tokyo dispatch seriously.。 This curved end can be regarded as a typical one. Huanqing is adjacent to Yanyan in the east and the party in the north, so it is not good to take him down rashly. Put Liu Guangshi and Yao Pingzhong in, firstly, to make Qu Duan have scruples, and secondly, to deal with it. What do you think? Xu Shao asked.
"Liu Guangshi can go, although Yao Xiyan is a little reckless, but he still has a clear attitude towards resisting gold, and he is willing to die. The nephew thinks it's a pity to put him in Huanqing. Xu Wei replied. When Liu Guangshi first met him, his impression was not bad, Xu Jiu felt that this person was impassioned and heroic. But after a few battles, I found that this thing is simply a braggart king, once the real knife is done, the enemy will always see his back. Let him go to Huanqing and accompany Qu Duan to play tricks.
"Oh? What do you suggest? Xu Shao walked over.
Xu Wei was silent for a moment, straightened his body, and said in a deep voice: "Third uncle, nephew heard that in the sixteen years of Xihe Road, there have been thirteen handsomes?" ”
"Well, there is such a thing. Only the Yao family has always been standing. Yao Pingzhong sent troops to King Qinwang with the seed master back then, and he was regarded as the first batch of Qinwang's divisions, and because of this, the official family has always thought of his goodness. No, even Yao Gu has been reactivated. Xu Shao replied. Speaking of this, he seemed to understand his nephew's intentions, and asked tentatively, "You mean, transfer Yao Pingzhong to Xihe?" ”
Xu Wei nodded silently.
"This is also a bit of truth, now Shaanxi six roads, only Qinfeng, Huanqing, Jingyuan, Xihe four roads. If Yao Pingzhong can sit in the handsome position of Xihe, it will not be difficult to unify the command. Xu Shao groaned. Suddenly, he smiled, "Ziang, you can think far ahead of this." ”
Xu Wei chuckled and said: "My nephew just said it casually, whether it works or not, it depends on the third uncle." ”
"Okay, Uncle is careful about this. By the way, I heard that after you were ordered to search for the generals of the Western Army, did you have any results? ”
"I probably figured out some, and found dozens of descendants such as Liu Fa, Liu Zhongwu, and Linzhou Yang's family, most of whom are in the army."
"How much can you use?" Xu Shao is more concerned about this.
"Liu Zhongwu's nine sons, when they were summoned by the Emperor Taishang, they were all made officials. But there is no development, there is a Liu Xi order. The ninth son, Liu Qi, was originally a general of Yan Yan, and after Zhang Shen surrendered, he escaped with Liu Guangshi. Now I am not sent, and I am also in Chang'an, so I can be appointed. There is a descendant of the Yang family in Linzhou, named Yang Rong, who is now in the Jingyuan army, extremely brave and brave, and a pioneer talent. There is also a person named Li Yanxian, whose family background is not prominent, but he is brave and talented, and he can be appointed as appropriate. Time is pressing, and the nephew has not investigated in detail, so the others dare not speak up. ”
Xu Shao nodded frequently, raised a hand and said: "In this way, in the near future, the Xuanfu Disposal Department will adjust the personnel in the army, mainly for the middle and lower-level officers of Zhulu, the person you are talking about is Liu, what is Liu?" Liu Qi? and that Li Yanxian, they all went to Huanqing with Liu Guangshi. Shaanxi's defense, your fifth brother will take over. ”
Hearing him say this, Xu Wei suddenly remembered Yue Fei, the senior brother, and asked, "Uncle left Tokyo to stay behind, who will succeed him?" ”
"Hmph, naturally it's Geng Nanzhong's group, it's a guy named Du Chong, it is said that he has served as the governor of Cangzhou, and he has been meritorious to Zong Ze who has been going south to King Qin." Xu Shaodao.
Xu Wei sneered when he heard this: "He has a bird's skill!" At that time, he fled to Zongze's army, followed south, and when Huazhou besieged the city, this guy took the position of Zhe Zhonggu, commanded indiscriminately, and let him escape without breaking the siege. And now it's up again! Geng Nanzhong's magic power is not small! ”
"Who asked someone to accompany the prince to stay in the East Palace for ten years?" Xu Shao smiled indifferently.
"The generals who stayed behind?" Xu Wei asked again.
"Zhang Suo and Zong Ze were both appointed as deputies, and Han Shizhong, Yue Fei and other generals were retained. Ah, you ask, what is this for? Xu Shao wondered.
Xu Wei didn't hide it: "That Yue Fei Yue Pengju is under the tutelage of Zhou Dong of Tangyin Township." ”
"No wonder, your father had a good relationship with Zhou Dong back then, and admired his martial arts very much, and he was commensurate with brothers. Speaking of which, you and that Yue Peng can be regarded as brothers. But...... Yue Fei is a person who would rather bend than bend, he is too straight, and he belongs to a character who goes to the black. Xu Shao said.
When Xu Wei heard this, he sighed in his heart, Yue Fei was not famous now, and his rank was not high, so he had already left this impression on the chief. No wonder those in power in history could not tolerate him. Helpless, he is far away in Shaanxi, and he can't reach out if he wants to help, I just hope that he will ask for more blessings.
sighed for a while and stood up: "Third uncle, since Qinzhou has an uncle in charge, the nephew's envoy can also be handed over." Judging from the current situation, it is not realistic to think that other marshals from all walks of life will send troops, so why don't you go back first? ”
"It's okay, you attacked the Jin army to collect grain, it is impossible for Lou Su not to react. You must keep in mind that if you take the initiative to attack, pay attention to the scale and do not rush alone. The Guanzhong Plain is not as good as Yanyan Qinfeng, and it is hundreds of miles in one collapse! If the Jin Army takes the initiative to attack, resolutely counterattack! You can rest assured that you can rest assured that Shaanxi Zhulu, you Qin Feng are naturally the first to replenish. The third uncle is not afraid of others saying that I Xu Shao protects my nephew! Xu Shao said with a smile.
Xu Wei bowed his hand: "With the sentence of Xuanfu Xianggong, you will have the confidence to be humble." ”
"Good! Go! Xu Shao slapped his nephew hard and said loudly.
Xu Wei saluted respectfully and exited the study. Xu Shao went all the way to the door, watched the vigorous background gradually fade away, and sighed: "Second brother, if you have a son like this, you can also laugh under Jiuquan." "I think of the Xu family's generation, five men, this fight is a big worm, specializing in the bastard thing of rampant in the township, setting up eagles and walking dogs. Somehow he changed sex, he was originally the youngest, but now he has 80,000 armor, sitting on one side, and even the Jurchens call him the Purple Golden Tiger. Even when the second brother Xu Zhang was alive, he was not so majestic! Out of the blue!
However, it was said that after Xu Wei went to visit the seed master, he left Qinzhou and Pegasus went to Chang'an. In his expectation, if the troops attacked the Jin army to collect food, Lou Su would definitely retaliate, and the Jurchens would never take any bird and peace seriously.
But when he entered Chang'an City, he was startled by the scene in front of him. What's going on? So many homeless people on the streets? This dragged the family with the mouth, led the donkey and hugged the back, and the Jin army attacked in a big way? And what do you eat in Jingzhao Mansion? Don't settle it either?
At that time, he didn't have time to ask, so he went to the Shuaifu in the east of the city. Along the way, seeing that there were many people, and knowing that the situation was not light, it seemed that Wang Yu, Wu Jue and others had succeeded in their attacks, otherwise Lou Su would not have been so annoyed.
When I arrived at Shuaisi, I saw Zhang Qing alone, Wang Yu and Wu Jue were gone, and even those "ready generals" and "ready to send" were nowhere to be seen.
"Where have all the people gone?" Xu Wei pulled his belt, took off his head, and asked loudly.
Zhang Qing raised his head and looked, put down his pen in a panic, and walked forward quickly: "The handsome man is back." ”
Seeing his solemn expression, Xu Jiu frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" Where are Wang Zhengchen and Wu Jinqing? ”
"In the morning, the Jin Army rangers actually approached Xianyang for a while! They were killed and burned on the road, so that the people fled in terror. In the past few days, there have been no less than a dozen such incidents, and I hate that the golden dog cavalry comes and goes quickly, and it is difficult to prevent it. We can only retaliate with a tooth for a tooth and send a horse army to attack. Today's luck, Yang Zaixing intercepted this Jin army in Liyang County, shot dozens of people, and the enemy broke away. Wang and Wu both went on patrol. The adjutants of the Shuai Division also went to deal with the aftermath. ”
When Xu Wei heard this, he tied his belt again, buckled his head, just walked a few steps out, turned around and said: "When you go to the government, just say my order, let them organize people, resettle the homeless, and sleeping on the street is not a thing." Now that the supplies have fallen, don't spare the food, cook porridge and distribute it to the people, if there are people starving to death in Chang'an City, no one's face will be disgraceful. After finishing his words, he hurried away.
The people in Chang'an City, suddenly saw a Puma army rolled out of the city, some people were sharp-eyed, and recognized one of them as Xiao Xu Jingluo, and they rumored that the official army was going to avenge us!
Chang'an to Xianyang, but only a few dozen miles away, Xu Wei's family didn't care about going back, nor did they care about eating, so they rushed with the guards. When he arrived in the city, he asked Wu Jue to lead people to the official village more than ten miles east of the city, and rushed there non-stop. When he left the city, he saw smoke rising from the southeast direction, so he hurried forward.
Running out of less than ten miles, a horse army collided head-on, and one of the men who followed Xu Wei raised his spear and shouted loudly: "The handsome man is here!" ”
When the other party heard this, he hurriedly stopped the reins and changed direction, Xu Wei rushed over and asked, "Where is Wu Jue?" ”
"Back to the big handsome! In the village! A Ma Junjun replied with his finger pointing to the east.
Xu Wei urged the war horse and asked, "How is the situation?" ”
"It's terrible!" From behind came the officer's angry voice.
Although this Guanzhuang is only a village, because it is located on the road and close to Xianyang, it has developed into a well-known "grass market", that is, a bazaar, where people regularly trade goods, complementing each other, and is very prosperous. But what Xu Wei saw was a mess.
Smoke billowed from the village, and the fire had apparently been extinguished somewhat, with soldiers and civilians coming in and out from time to time. When I looked closely, I was carrying the wounded and the corpses. After leaving the village, the corpses were put in a pile, the wounded were placed in a row, and the medical officers in the army and Lang Zhong recruited from the city were being treated.
Xu Wei jumped off the horse and stepped forward to visit the injured with a whip. There are only old and young, men and women, and there are still many knives and guns. It's just clear that only a few survived the attack, and there were far more corpses than the wounded.
His ears were filled with wailing, crying, and cursing, and there was not the slightest expression on Zijin Tiger's face. At this moment, a special cry came, and Xu Wei unconsciously looked up. I saw a soldier with a knife on his belt holding a child and snatching it out of the village, shouting loudly: "Father Wei! Father Wei! Save this baby! ”
Xu Wei hurriedly caught up, and the soldier was probably dizzy, feeling that there was a figure in front of him, and shouted: "Don't get in the way!" ”
When Xu Wei looked at the child, the hot heart of the sky was cold, is there still a human being? Those hands and feet are almost burning! A few black fingers have no flesh and skin, like dry sticks!
The old medical officer Wei, who was very respected in the army, rushed over, saw Xu Wei with a dozen eyes, and hurriedly held a pair of blood-red hands and said, "Handsome! ”
"What do you do to me? Save! Xu Wei waved his whip and said loudly.
