Chapter Seventy-One: Two Tigers Eat Together, and the Huns Are Worried

After Hu Cai sent people out, someone came back after a while to report that several envoys of Cao Jun were all killed, and not a single one was left alive. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe people in the prisoner van brought it back.

Hu Cairang brought people in, and he actually recognized them at a glance. It is the son of Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Quan, the tiger ben Zhonglang.

After asking, I learned that Zhang Quan was ordered to form an alliance with Hedong, but he knew that he was captured by Guo Jia's spies on the way. Guo Jia only asked Zhang Quan one question, that is, whether the arrow that shot Cao Ang outside the city of Xudu that day was poisonous.

Zhang Quan said angrily, "I have always acted frankly, and I have never fed poison on arrows. No, you can ask the former Lieutenant General of the Tiger Camp. "

Guo Jia knew that something was wrong, so he stopped asking. Later, for unknown reasons, he was transferred to Hangu Pass, and then to Dongyuan.

Hu Cai also felt strange, and suddenly asked: "Does the general know that Ling Zun has surrendered to Cao Cao?" "

Zhang Quan said: "Huh? When did this happen? My father asked me to contact Hedong, and later sent his henchmen to Yuan Shao in Jizhou to ask for help. With that, he slammed his fist on the table.

Hu Cai said: "The general is a friend of my General Jiatian, and we will try to help no matter what decision the general makes." Now whether you go to Xudu to see Lingzun or Anyi to see General Tian of my family, you have to make a decision. "

Zhang Quan sighed slightly, "I'd better go to Anyi, I was originally going to go, even if my father descended to Cao Cao, I still support Tian Jing in my heart." Besides, anyway, after all, I killed Cao Ang, and no matter how big Cao Cao is, he may not be able to tolerate me. My father's situation would be better if I didn't go. "

Hu Cai said, "In that case, I will send someone to send the general to Anyi." The general waited a moment, and I wrote a letter to inform my lord of the situation in Dongyuan. I don't have to be distracted to go north, and I have full authority to deal with the affairs here. "

After writing the letter after a while, Hu Cai sent someone to escort Zhang Quan north. Then the general will be convened to discuss the next step.

Three days later, Wei Yan received a letter from Hu Cai, and according to Hu Cai's arrangement, he sent an envoy to Ma Teng and Han Sui's camp.

The envoy said: "General Zhengbei of my family agreed to General Han Sui's proposal to hand over Puban and Hebei to the Xiliang Army, withdraw the western front to the north of Xie County, and hand over Dayang and Dongyuan to the Western Liang Army on the eastern front. The two sides maintained a balance of power in the north and south of the battle line, did not attack each other, and waited until the battle of Guandu was decided. "

Ma Teng Han Sui didn't expect Tian Jing to agree to the conditions so simply, and he was also very surprised.

Han Sui said: "There is no basis for what you say, but you can have a letter with me." "

The envoy took out the letter that Hu Cai had written before and said, "This is a letter written by the generals of my family, please look at the two generals." "

Han Sui looked at it and asked, "Why don't you see the seal letter of General Zhengbei." "

The messenger said: "General, please think about it, this matter is a secret agreement, how can my general use the seal, if it is spread in the future, how will my general serve the people." Whether this matter is true or not, the two leaders who came to Japan will naturally know on the day they take over the city. "

Han Sui said, "Okay, I believe you." It's just that Dongyuan is now under the control of Cao Jun, how can it be regarded as a gift to us. "

The messenger said, "I don't know about this, my general didn't mention it. It's just that our army in the above cities will all withdraw after three days, and if the general receives it late, don't blame us for letting Cao's army take the lead. "

After sending the envoy away, Ma Teng and Han then discussed with the two to see if the matter was true or false.

Han Sui thought that it was unlikely that Tian Jing would use a trick to set up an ambush, because he was the last willing to have a conflict between the two armies. But even so, you have to be careful when you receive it. The other is Dongyuan, which was originally occupied by the old part of Hedong, and it is not impossible to return to Hedong again. This city should be received quickly, and now Cao Jun does not know the news, if it is occupied by Lejin first, there will be one less important base.

After the two discussed, it was decided to order Cheng Gongying to occupy Dayang, and Ma Chao to take Dongyuan. Han Sui stayed at Tongguan, and Ma Teng went north.

Speaking of Ma Chao's troops to Dongyuan, they encountered many attacks by small groups of Hedong troops along the way, and these people followed Ma Chao's cavalry like flies to make trouble for him, but they ran away as soon as they hit it. Ma Chao is so angry that he can't do it, but there is no good way.

On this day, when he arrived at the foot of Dongyuan City, it was night, and what Ma Chao saw was not an empty city, but saw that the lights were bright, and countless grain trucks were retreating north of the city. Ma Chao knew that the Hedong Army was constantly making trouble for him because of this.

Ma Chao was angry, and regardless of the agreement between the two parties, he ordered people to directly rob the grain cart and occupy Dongyuan City at the same time. The Hedong army collapsed at the first touch and fled in all directions. When Ma Chao was proud, the junior general who had just withdrawn just now rushed back, followed by thousands of cavalry. The young general shouted, "The horses are gone, and the reinforcements from my general's are coming." But he rode away.

Ma Chaoxin said, I went to see what the Hedong Army was capable of, and led his own soldiers to rush up.

When the two sides meet, you come and go is a scuffle. Ma Chao saw that the enemy general was brave, and the more he fought, the more energetic he became.

The two sides fought for nearly a lily, and the enemy general said: "The general is so handsome, he may leave a name, and I will come again to ask for advice in the future." "

Ma Chao was originally happy, but he was stunned when he heard the other party's registration: Isn't it Hedong Army, how can it be Lejin? Then he asked, "Are you the Hanoi Taishou Le Jin Le Wenqian under the command of Prime Minister Cao Cheng?" "

Le Jin looked at the other party's mouth wide as if he had eaten walnuts, and he was also strange, "It's down." "

Ma Chao patted his thigh and said: "Wrong, I'm Xiliang Ma Chao, how did our own people fight together." "

Only then did Le Jin know that he had fallen into the Hedong Army's plan to eat the two tigers. The two men ordered their men to strike their troops, and when they counted, they found that each side had lost nearly 1,000 men and horses.

The boycott of the two sides is a boycott, but when it comes to the ownership of Dongyuan, they do not give in to each other. Ma Chao thought that he had beaten it alone, but Lejin refused to give up, thinking that Dongyuan was backed by Keiguan and was the gateway to Hanoi. The two sides had a dispute, so they had to occupy half of the city, and the rest of the matter could only be handed over to Guo Jia to solve.

Ten days later, Guo Jia came to Dongyuan, which was also considered to be a partial shelf, and the grain and grass materials in the city belonged to Ma Chao, and Dongyuan City was handed over to Lejin for jurisdiction. Ma Chao withdrew in a rage. Later, he directly withdrew to Guanzhong and no longer fought with Hedong, and Ma Teng had no choice but to transfer Ma Dai to come.

Guo Jia asked Le Jin by the way how he found out about Dongyuan's rebellion, and Le Jin said strangely, "Didn't you send a messenger from Fengxiao to inform me?" "

Only then did Guo Jia confirm that they had all fallen for the Hedong Army's divisive scheme. In fact, what he cares about most now is Zhang Quan, who was caught and ran away by him. He transferred Zhang Quan not because Zhang Xiu surrendered, but because the second son, Cao Pi, wanted to kill him.

It is reasonable to say that Cao Pi avenged his brother, but Guo Jia and Cao Cao were not ready to release Zhang Quan, and Cao Pi's private assassination seemed very strange. In particular, Guo Jia knew that Zhang Quan's arrows were never fed with poison, and Hua Tuo's diagnosis of poisoning after the incident that day, the first guard close to Cao Ang suddenly died, all of which led the truth to a conspiracy. There is no need to ask who is the person who has the most interest in the matter, and the greater its motive for committing the crime. And this person Guo Jia knew it, but it was impossible to investigate, let alone tell Cao Cao. So Guo Jia could only quietly transfer Zhang Quan away. Now that Zhang Quan has arrived in Hedong, he is afraid that there will be a lot of trouble in the future.

When Zhang Quan arrived at Anyi, Tian Jing, Xu Huang, and Yang Xiu had been waiting for more than ten days in the Xiongnu court in Meiji.

Although Youxian Wang Hu Chuquan was very attentive every day, Yu Fuluo had been excused on the grounds of illness.

After Hu Chuquan left on this day, Xu Huang couldn't sit still. "My lord, we can't wait any longer, I'm afraid that Fuluo can't count on it. We might as well go back to Anyi first and discuss with the military advisor before making plans. "

Tian Jing didn't speak, turned around and asked Yang Xiu, "What do you think?" "

Yang Xiu said: "Yu Fuluo can't see anyone, I don't know what he plans to do. But he was extremely distrustful of the Han Chinese. But the Han Emperor kept him as a hostage, Qiangqu died alone, and let Yu Fuluo, a pro-Han heir, not support him, but supported the old king of the Huns in the hope of dividing and disintegrating, which was really short-sighted and hurt Yu Fuluo's heart. So no matter how tempting the conditions are, I'm afraid that he will be suspicious. But on the other hand, he let Hu Chuquan be hospitable, which was not perfunctory at all, indicating that he was really thinking seriously, but now he lacked a reason to make up his mind. "

After listening to Yang Xiu's analysis, Tian Jing smiled and said, "I don't want Dezu to study with Xu Shu for a long time, but I have grown a lot of skills." The analysis and judgment are becoming more and more accurate, and I don't know what we can do now. "

Yang Xiudao, "We are in a hurry to form an alliance now, but Yu Fuluo is not in a hurry. If we can get the Flying Eagle's eyeliner to deliberately leak some information, so that Yu Fuluo thinks that Xianbei Tanshi Huai will go south, then Yu Fuluo will be in a hurry to see us. "

Tian Jing listened to it and slapped the table, which was a good plan. "It's just that if you have information, I'm afraid it's hard to deceive Fuluo?"

Xu Huang received, "That's not simple, I'll send a team of soldiers and horses dressed as Hun warriors to touch the tiger whiskers of Tanshi Huai to see if he can let go of Fuluo." "

Tian Jing thought about it and said, this is feasible. As long as the conflict is kept within a certain range, we can control the situation of the war. Dezu will write a letter and let the carrier pigeon send it out tomorrow morning.

Who knew that the carrier pigeon had not been released the next day, and Hu Chuquan came early in the morning. said that Yu Fuluo's illness had just recovered, and he wanted to see Tian Jing and the other three.

Tian Jing asked Yang Xiu not to send the letter out first, and to see what Yu Fuluo meant to make a decision.

When the three of them arrived at the big tent, Yu Fuluo got up to greet him, seeing that his face was pale, and he was obviously lacking in qi and blood.

Yu Fuluo first apologized, saying that he had been unwell and had neglected the distinguished guest. The two sides exchanged a few words, and Yu Fuluo went directly to the topic, asking if it is a double alliance, who will be the main one? What benefits did the alliance have for the development and growth of the Xiongnu tribe? If Cao Cao in the Central Plains wins in the future, then how can the Hedong Army guarantee today's promises and so on.

Rao is Yang Xiu was well prepared, and he had never thought of such a straightforward way of talking. In particular, the first question of who is the main and who is the second is not easy to answer. Yang Xiu had no choice but to bypass it, focusing on the benefits of forming an alliance to the Xiongnu according to the previous manuscript.

Yu Fuluo was obviously not satisfied with Yang Xiu's answer, Tian Jing took over the topic, looked at Yu Fuluo and asked, "I don't know how determined Shan Yu is to do this?" ”
