Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Letter Comes
Jiang Hexing was a little puzzled, he didn't understand what Yan You meant, why are you Yan You responsible for delivering grain and grass? In addition, there is not a general in Tonglu County, called Yang Jun, he is not there. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Jiang Hexing asked what he meant, Yan You also smiled, and explained that Yang Jun was separated from his army, and there were still dozens of miles away from camping.
As for grain and grass, now that the river is dry, there is no way to transport it upstream by boat, but the army needs it very much, and it does not dare to slack off. Besides, now is the time when the grain is not in demand, if the grain cannot be transported, how many people will be robbed of the grain in their mouths, and the people will be unlucky, so they dare not slack off at all.
Most of the grain here in Yan You was transported from Pingzhou by Li Tong and Li Yi's brothers as military grain and grass. There is still a lot of grain and grass transported from other places, but the grain and grass from other places have not been able to come up, and the transportation is too difficult, so now the grain in Pingzhou has become the main source of supply for Yan You and his army.
Yan You introduced while thanking Jiang Hexing for his support, and frequently persuaded him to drink.
After talking about this, Jiang Hexing also told Su Wen about what he had seen in the past two days, but unexpectedly, Yan You smiled and said: "He Shunhou, he is really kind-hearted, if you want to save that old man, you don't have to worry about anything now, and let Du Pont come to me directly when the time comes." ”
Jiang Hexing was a little surprised, Yan You in his eyes, he has always been law-abiding and exemplary, would he send troops to save that old man, or use power to suppress Su Wen?
Yan You explained: "What will they do in the service, they will help me transport grain and grass, and when I say a word, there will be nothing left." ”
Jiang Hexing's heart fell to the ground, and he no longer asked about these little things.
Jiang Hexing asked about the military situation, and Yan You only said that there were no preparations for war on the side of Tonglu County. However, looking at his preparations, he is also meticulous, perhaps because he is unwilling to let Jiang Hexing, an outsider, know, and always feels ambiguous and vague.
Seeing that Yan You didn't want to say more about the military situation, Jiang Hexing didn't ask more. He talked about cooperation, Quanzhou, and his future plans.
Jianghe will set up a port in Quanzhou County and establish markets for grain and medicine. Yan You was very excited and inquired very carefully.
Seeing that the banquet was about to end, although Yan Youxian was very enthusiastic, he was still very cautious, and Jiang Hexing didn't hear a word about what he shouldn't say.
Jiang Hexing didn't have anything to say, he said hello to Yan You, the task was completed, and he was about to go back after drinking, there are still many things to do in Quanzhou.
After the banquet, Jiang Hexing was about to say goodbye. Suddenly, a spy ran in from outside, hurriedly came to Yan You, and handed Yan You a white silk.
Yan You put down the chopsticks, took the white silk, opened it and looked at it twice, folded it back, and put the white silk into his arms.
Yan You looked serious and asked Jiang Hexing: "Heshun, I have something here, I'm afraid it will delay your time, I have something I want to ask you for advice." ”
Jiang Hexing said: "What's the matter, just say it." ”
Yan You said: "I just received a letter from the tired general Chen Qin, which mentions the Xiongnu and some things about your Pingzhou, I want to confirm it. ”
Jiang Hexing nodded.
Yan You continued: "General Chen Qin mentioned that the previous year, King Zuoxian ordered his third son, Xuan Xian, to send troops to disturb our border counties, burn, kill and loot, and do all kinds of evil. Yunzhong County, where General Chen Qin is stationed, has also been affected, and an investigation into the victim's situation began last year. They also sent people to find out about the damage in other border counties.
Many important people in Pingzhou are from Yangyuan County, Dai County, and Yangyuan has suffered deeply, which is the main reason for Pingzhou's troops, right? ”
Jiang Hexing nodded again.
Yan You said: "General Chen Qin has a proposal, I want our border county to be guarded, as well as the garrison leaders and generals from all over the country, to write to the imperial court and severely punish King Zuoxian, and it is absolutely impossible to take in King Zuoxian's father and son." They are the culprits, and they will not be allowed to get away with it.
And Shunhou, is what General Chen Qin said above right? What do you think of what we do? ”
Jiang Hexing hesitated, and didn't have time to speak. Next to him, Xu Lang said: "General Yan, this General Chen Qin is Chen Qin of Cangwu County?" ”
Jiang Hexing has never heard who Chen Qin is, and he doesn't know why Xu Lang asked such a question, it seems that there must be a reason in it. Therefore, keep silent for now, and wait until you understand who Chen Qin is.
Yan You looked at Xu Lang suspiciously: "Mr. Xu, Heshun Hou doesn't know Chen Qin's feelings, you don't know Chen Qin, right?" He is a big man in the contemporary literary world, you should have seen "Chen's Spring and Autumn", right? ”
Jiang Hexing was confused when he listened, and the more he listened, the more confused he became, a generation of literary giants actually became generals, how did Wang Mang choose the general?
Let's listen to Xu Lang said: "Of course I have read "Chen's Spring and Autumn", Chen Qin wrote it well. It seems that this General Chen Qin is Chen Qin of Cangwu County. Chen Qin and Yang Xiong are both famous grandmasters in my mind, and I thought he was in Chang'an. How did you get to Yunzhong County? How did he become a general in battle? ”
"Haha, Mr. Xu, you forgot, I'm also a literati, don't I also be a general?" Yan You first laughed, and then said, "Chen Qin first became the teacher of Emperor Ping of Han, and then he became the teacher of our current Emperor of the Great New Dynasty. The reason why he wants to be a disgusting general is probably to be auspicious. The emperors are all out of the horse, are there any difficulties that can't be overcome? ”
Jiang Hexing didn't understand Wang Mang's habit of trying to be auspicious in everything, maybe it was in line with some kind of providence in his heart, right?
By the way, this Chen Qin is Wang Mang's teacher, and this Yan You is Wang Mang's classmate. Chen Qinla Yan You is estimated to increase the weight of the book, right?
Thinking of this, Jiang Hexing spoke: "General Yan, this old Mr. Chen has been the emperor's teacher, and he is estimated to be sixty or seventy years old, right?" It's really embarrassing for him to lead troops at such an age. He also investigated the Xiongnu's harm to the border counties, which shows his love for the people. Are you going to go to the book with him? ”
Yan You sighed and said, "Hey, I'm afraid I won't go to school with him." Although he has no problem doing this, he doesn't know His Majesty. ”
Jiang Hexing pondered for a while, this Wang Mang wants to subdue the Quartet, and he is willing to pay any price. For the sake of Pingzhou's superficial submission, he was willing to cede Quanzhou and Yongnu. For the superficial submission of the Xiongnu, can he let King Zuo Xian go, and then give King Zuo Xian a reward. In this way, on the surface, it seems that King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu has surrendered to him.
Although this Chen Qin seems to be not an ordinary person, he may not have any good fruits to eat in the imperial court. But Chen Qin spoke for the people who died in the border county, Yan You could not care, Jiang Hexing must help him if he finds an opportunity. But now is not the opportunity, it is important to ask about this Zuo Xianwang.
Jiang Hexing asked: "General Yan, does the imperial court have any plans for King Zuoxian?" But don't forget, it was our people who caught Zuo Xianwang's father and son. The court is disposing of, and we should be asked for our opinions. (To be continued.) )
