Chapter 509: The World is Turned Upside Down, Chaotic Battle and Attack (2)
Qingzhou Governance, Linzi City. The tall and thick city wall, the soldiers in armor, the big Lu character banner hanging high on the city wall, and the crowd at the city gate, the merchants who drove the mules and horses, all had vigorous vitality on their faces; On both sides of the main road paved with solid stones in the city, there are rows of restaurants and shops, people and horses come and go on the streets, and the sound of selling and soliciting customers is endless, all of which declare the style of the old capital of the King of Qi in the past and the first fortified city in the Central Plains now. For the current world where the disputes between the princes are becoming more and more frequent, and the world is in chaos, this place can be regarded as a holy place like a paradise.
Entering the west gate of Linzi, the side of the bell tower in the city of more than 700 steps, is the mansion of Linzi Taishou, it is late autumn at the moment, the officials who rushed back to report on their work, plus the small officials who went out to do business, went in and out here, but made this yamen actually more lively than the Fang City.
And through the former Qingzhou Shaofu, Qin Xu, the chief secretary of the Zuo General's Mansion, proposed, in order to improve the efficiency of work, the administrative hall opened by the Linzi Mansion, when stepping into the second courtyard, this noise seemed to be blocked by the lush trees, and it stopped abruptly, except for the guards on duty, the number of people has decreased a lot. Most of them are dressed in the official uniforms of the Xuan Qing Han Dynasty, and the main book comes and goes here, and the look on their faces is also a lot more dignified, all the political affairs in the Lu Bujun forces are from this, and Sima Zanghong of Qingzhou is working here.
"Sima Zang, General Qin has news here!" An official dressed in a black robe and holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, sweating profusely, was carrying his clothes, running in small steps in the inner courtyard, and pushed Zang Hong's "office" away with ease. did not encounter the gate was originally the Lu Bu Army Shenbow Battalion, and later mixed with most of the Yellow Turban soldiers who surrendered to Cheng as the guards of the city defense army, it seems that they have already been ordered. And this man came in with only one word. Let him sit behind the desk, Zang Hong, who was holding a pen to correct the official document, was instantly happy, and even the ink on the tip of the pen fell on the silk silk and dyed into a ball.
"What? Zhongming has news? Can the children know when the army will return? Can you leave now? Where to go? "Usually very important to demeanor, always very dignified in front of people, this Lu Bu is the first person in the government affairs department of the army, at this moment is really a little out of shape, holding the case and standing up. Tugging at the sleeve of the visitor, he asked with an urgent expression.
......The person who was grabbed by Zang Hong's sleeve by Zang Hong was Qin Xu's second uncle. The second brother of Mrs. Mi in the Qin Mansion, Qingzhou Shang Cao is engaged in Mi Fang Mi Zifang, as the second son of the Mi family who traveled back and forth between Xuzhou and Qingzhou to run for the military resources and armaments of Lu Bujun's forces, and can almost be regarded as the parents who provide food and clothing for Lu Bujun. Mi Fang has been quite active in recent years. The relationship between the military and political circles in Qingzhou is quite good. At this moment, Zang Hong grabbed his sleeve, Mi Fang also looked irrepressibly excited, and said: "This time, Mi went to Xuzhou to escort this autumn's military rations, and on the way back, he got the flying pigeon of his men who were delayed and loaded, saying that Zhong Ming took the lead in boarding the soldiers and the personal guards of the headquarters two days after Mi left Xiapi, and returned to Xuzhou first, after a little rest. He came to Linzi non-stop and estimated the distance. With Zhongming's horse speed, I am afraid that he will be able to return to Linzi today and tomorrow. ”
"Alas! Zi Fangguo doesn't deceive me! That's great news! It has been nearly half a month since the lord came back, although now because we have blocked the news, so that Linzi is not in chaos, but we are like ants on the hot pot every day, looking forward to Zhong Ming's return, this is good! Finally, I don't have to face the enemy every day. Thinking that when he was just a county official, he dared to match the princes to discuss Dong, and finally showed a relieved expression at this moment, and his frowning brows for days were also stretched a lot, which shows that the news of Qin Xu's return really made Zang Hong breathe a sigh of relief.
"What the hell is going on?" What Zang Hong and Mi Fang didn't know was that just when the two of them were relaxing a lot because of the news that Qin Xu was back, in the Qin Mansion not far from Lu Bu's general's mansion, they also waited for the long-lost male host, Qin Xu. However, to Qin Xu's surprise, when he returned this time, he did not see the expected scene of the child servant welcoming his wife Houmen, on the contrary, except for the soldiers of the personal guard battalion arranged by Lu Bu to guard the door, the huge Qin Mansion was empty, which made Qin Xu's heart suddenly feel cold.
"Back to General Qin, the eldest lady and all the ladies were all taken to the lord's mansion by the master mother to live temporarily." Fortunately, the gatekeeper on duty today is also a veteran who has followed Lu Bu's army for a long time, and he is also familiar with Qin Xu.
"Thank you!" Qin Xu arched his hand at the gatekeeper, and in the excited look on this person's face, he turned around and turned his horse and headed towards Lu Bu's mansion not far away.
"Zhongming ......" The straight-line distance between Qin Xu's mansion and Lu Bu's residence is never more than 100 steps, so Qin Xu's return has long been seen by the soldiers guarding the door of Lu Bu's mansion, and before Qin Xu arrived at the door, he saw a fiery red figure, rushing towards Qin Xu, and his words were crisp and a little choked, which startled Qin Xu.
"Is the lord all right?" The person who came was Lu Lingqi, for his wife, Qin Xu also avoided a lot of clichés, plus Lu Lingqi came up with a crying voice, as if she had been wronged, Qin Xu hurriedly asked in a low voice.
"Daddy is hurt!" Seeing Qin Xu at this moment, Lu Lingqi also seemed to have a backbone, and when she heard Qin Xu's question, Lu Lingqi snorted and said briefly in a low voice.
"What? This...... How is this possible? Qin Xu couldn't believe his ears. Although he had seen the nominally written letter by Lu Lingqi before, but he couldn't say anything, and there were strange family letters everywhere, Qin Xu had already expected that something would inevitably happen in Qingzhou, but after listening to what Lu Lingqi said at this moment, Qin Xu really couldn't believe that the flying general Lu Wenhou, who was known as the world's number one fierce general, would also be injured, and looking at Lu Lingqi's appearance, it seems that he is still injured, who can have such a great ability?
"Daddy was injured by a thief's poisonous arrow when he attacked Hebei, and he was already unable to force himself to return to Linzi, which frightened me and my mother that day, and even Sister Diao Chan was also frightened by the six gods and no master, if it weren't for Mr. Wenhe's original order to find a good doctor for Mr. Fengxiao. It just so happened that the man had already arrived in Linzi at that time, and if he healed his father in time...... Woo woo...... "Lu Lingqi is still a flower girl after all, so she must have been really scared by this incident." It was only for the sake of the stability of Qingzhou and Lu Bujun's army that he forced to make a calm demeanor, seeing Qin Xu at this moment, where would he be able to bear it, under the catharsis of grievances in his heart, it only took a moment of hard work to bring rain to pear blossoms.
"It's fine! It's fine! Although Lu Lingqi said briefly. And there were some words that didn't make sense between the choking, but it still made Qin Xu break out in a cold sweat. No wonder! No wonder they are so eager to recruit themselves back! It turned out that there was such a joint! Lu Bu, who is known as the world's number one fierce general, is not an immortal after all, and he is not a person who can run amok on the battlefield. It is common to suffer some knife wounds and arrow wounds, but who would have thought that someone would actually smear poison on the arrows, inferring the previous state, presumably this poison must not be a joke. It seems that it has threatened Lu Bu's life. It's thanks to the first time Guo Jia was fooled. Qin Xu thought of Guo Jia's body, and asked Jia Xu to order the shadow to pay attention to the news of Hua Tuo, the world's famous doctor, from time to time, but he didn't expect that at this moment, he saved Lu Bu's life. Thinking of Jia Xu, Qin Xu seemed to suddenly understand something, presumably the so-called family letter, eighty or ninety percent of it may have come from Jia Xu's handwriting. Otherwise, he would not have arrived in Xiapi, and the soldiers sent by Linzi to deliver the news to Qin Xu had just stepped into Xuzhou. Thus. It is likely that as soon as he learned that Lu Bu was injured, Jia Xu had already sent his henchmen. went to Jiangdong to look for Qin Xu.
Thanks to Jia Xu's cautious temperament at all times before worshipping Qin Xu, he was slow and methodical in everything he did. But this time he is in such a hurry, and it can already be seen that this old brother is a complete conspiracy theorist in addition to his own outstanding intelligence. In a word, what Jia Xu meant, Qin Xu understood very well.
In the current forces of the Lü Bu army, after two years of steady development, it has laid a solid foundation in the Central Plains, and the veterans of the battalions who once followed Lü Bu to fight everywhere, because of many factors such as war attrition, have gradually been replaced by newly recruited soldiers and recruited surrendered troops in the ratio.
And this leads to a consequence. As we all know, Lu Bujun is known for his good food. In particular, the treatment of ordinary soldiers in the front-line combat sequence is even comparable to the "treatment" of other forces. This is actually nothing for the veterans of Lu Bu's army, and they have followed Lu Bu to fight in the south and the north for more than ten years, and these are what they deserve. But if some newly recruited recruits, and even the surrendered troops who had fought against the enemy before, joined in, and the "treatment" they received was the same as that of these veterans, the contradiction was suddenly aroused. When Lu Bu was there, he could still hold it down, after all, the name was worshiped there, whether it was an old soldier or a new soldier, or even a prisoner of war, they all coincidentally convinced Lu Bu's bravery, so although the contradiction was getting deeper and deeper, it had not broken out for a while. But at that time, Lu Bu's injuries were extremely serious, and no one dared to guarantee that Hua Tuo would be cured, some high-level Lu Bujun officials who knew the inside story had some ideas.
We will not rebel, nor will we make a roar, let alone do anything that will hurt the lord and his family, but the lord poisoned the arrow this time, who can guarantee that it is not because there are spies in the army, Neiying, and Erwuzai who provided the enemy with the direction where Lu Bu is, which led to this? Who knows, no one ......knows, but this excuse was during the period of time when Lu Bu was initially in a coma, and it became a period of high incidence when the veterans of each battalion went from half-hiding and half-open to the end when they completely blatantly bullied recruits and surrendered troops. As for these, after hearing about this, the high-level military departments of Lu Bujun, instead of saying anything to stop it, seemed to have different opinions, just because of such a delay, things have been so deadlocked, fortunately, it is still in a relatively restrained and controllable state, otherwise I don't know what chaos is going on.
And the reason why this situation occurred is that in the previous Lu Bu army, although Lu Bu was the mainstay, it was actually divided into a lot of small hills, and small factions existed, such as Zhang Liao, who was close to Gao Shun, and the trapped camp and Xiao cavalry battalion under the command of the two had common interests in many things, so no matter what happened, they were willing to communicate privately with the two first, and then report to Lu Bu for decision. Another example is Cheng Lian and Hao Meng, these two people are not as good as Zhang Liao Gaoshun, these two people themselves are like natural enemies, when Lu Bujun was still under Ding Yuan in the early stage, the two did not deal with each other very much, and even brought the newly recruited flying cavalry battalion and the baggage battalion to manage logistics, although they maintained good cooperation on the surface, but they had never heard of various tricks in private. Not to mention that the Xiandeng Battalion, which had slaughtered the Flying Cavalry Battalion, was also stationed in Linzi, and when he was in the bureau, he was inevitably pulled in, so that behind the entire lively and prosperous Linzi City, it was even more lively.
This kind of behavior that is a prelude to internal friction will naturally not be known to Lu Bu, who was in a coma at that time, and some people who see that the situation of the various armies of their army is hindering each other will have a negative impact on their own army, but they are either not qualified enough, or their words are not big enough. I could only watch the Qingzhou military affairs gradually move from underground to aboveground, and without Lu Bu's restraint, there was a tendency to become more and more intense, and even some uncontrollable signs had been shown.
This is the source of chaos! Jia Xu, who was a bystander, saw it very clearly. This is not so much a dispute between soldiers over the issue of treatment, but rather a good tradition of using military merits to distinguish between each other under the condition that Lu Bu is unable to suppress this group of people for the time being, and there is a tendency to deviate from the crooked path. And the one who can reconcile all this the most has not woken up yet, which makes Jia Xu, who is always worried about his comfort, have to think about it.
In the end, a brilliant plan was reached.
That's ...... Let your own lord Qin come back and clean up this mess! In Jia Xu's view, there is simply no more suitable, simpler and more effective solution.
And Qin Xu, who didn't know that he had been calculated by Jia Xu, who had just shown his loyalty for a long time, didn't even have any suspicions of kung fu, so he entered the gang by himself. (To be continued......)
