On the evening of June 20, a sudden rush of horses' hooves broke the calm of Xiangguo City. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Report! The Liaodong Army suddenly went south from Zhongqiu to take Zhuyang, and captured Zhuyang in only one day, and the peak of the army pointed directly at Xiangguo City. ”

The news of Liaodong's capture of Zhuyang exploded in the sky over Xiangguo like a huge thunder, and the faces of countless Hu Lu changed dramatically.

Zhuyang is the northern gate of Xiangguo, and after the Liaodong Army takes Zhuyang, Xiangguo will be completely exposed to the Liaodong Army.

"Have you ever seen the banner of Da Sima Weishuo?" While everyone was still immersed in shock, Zhang Bin came back to his senses first.

"Lord Hui, I saw the banner of Da Sima with my own eyes under Zhuyang City, and the banners of Liaodong generals such as Xie Ai, Duan Wenyang, and Chen An also appeared."

"Ah, really, it's really Da Sima here!"

Upon learning of Wei Shuo's arrival, Cheng Yao, Guo Tai, Guo Xiang and others were all shocked. As Liaodong became stronger and stronger, Wei Shuo put more and more pressure on the outside world. Especially for Hu Lu and traitors, when they heard Wei Shuo's name, they all trembled, for fear that they would be retaliated against by Da Sima.

Zhang Bin couldn't help but look up to the sky and sighed: "It seems that everyone has underestimated Da Sima, originally we thought that there was still some hope for relying on the city to hold on, but now that we see Da Sima coming to the front line in person, I am afraid that there will be no city in the world that cannot be attacked!" ”

"So what should I do?" Cheng Yao, Mrs. Guo and others asked Zhang Bin for advice with sad faces.

"The general trend is like this, and there is nothing you can do but do it reluctantly." Zhang Bin said helplessly.

……

"The last general will wait to welcome the Great Sima!"

Outside Zhuyang City, Duan Wenyang, Xie Ai, Yao Yizhong and other generals of the Western Route Army were welcoming Wei Shuo's arrival.

Looking at the dusty generals, Wei Shuo hurriedly dismounted and helped everyone up, and entered the city with them.

"Alright, everyone's here, let's talk about it. Recently, the army has been on the march, and I am afraid that it has delayed a lot of government affairs. Chu Ji, you pick an urgent matter to report first. ”

"No!" Huang Fuzhen, the secretary and supervisor, immediately got up and read aloud: "Da Sima, there is a letter from Pei Changshi of the Pastoral Mansion, asking Da Sima to determine the candidates for the assassination of Ji Yanyu and Xu Sizhou as soon as possible, and this matter cannot be delayed any longer." In particular, Jizhou has been recovered, and local governments are being formed, and it is urgent to assassinate the historical governors. ”

"Well, that makes sense, so be it......"

Wei Shuo pondered for a moment and ordered: "Chu Ji, you prepare a reply letter for me to the Mu Mansion, and transfer the Xiake of the Clan to the Jizhou Assassin History, Pei Xu's Yuzhou Assassin History, Youziyuan's Xuzhou Assassin History, Liu Han's Yanzhou Assassin History, as for Shao Gong...... Transfer him back to Jicheng first, and make arrangements later. ”

"In addition, the positions of You Ziyuan, Pei Xu, Qi Xiake, Liu Han and others were taken over by Li Ju, Feng Yi, Zhang Mao, and Han Ju."

"By the way, Chu Ji, you have been with me for several years, have you ever thought about going to the grassroots level to exercise?"

After arranging the assassination personnel, Wei Shuo suddenly thought of Huangfu Zhen again. As the second director of the secretary and supervisor, Huang Fuzhen has been conscientious and conscientious since taking office, and has won the respect and trust of Wei Shuo. Although Wei Shuo was a little reluctant to release him, in the long run, it was the best choice for Liaodong and himself to release Huangfu Zhen.

Sure enough, when he heard that Da Sima intended to release himself, Huangfu Zhen couldn't help but show a hint of joy on his face. It's not that he doesn't want to stay by Wei Shuo's side, but Huangfu really knows that if he wants to be the head of civil servants like Mo Han and Pei Wei in the future, he must have experience in local governance.

Just like Feng Yi, the first secretary and supervisor, after a few years of exile, he soon climbed to a high position in the history of a state. In the future, as long as Feng Yi can make meritorious achievements in the local area, he will soon be promoted to an important position in the pastoral government.

"The minister obeys the orders of the great Sima." Huangfu really held back the joy in his heart, and put on an appearance of obeying the dispatch of the 'organization'.

Seeing Huangfu really like this, Wei Shuo still didn't understand anything, he scolded with a smile: "If you want to release it, just say it, do you need this?" Okay, okay, when the war is over, you can report to the Jizhou Assassin's Mansion and see what position the Assassin's Assassin will arrange for you. ”

"Thank you, Lord! That...... If the minister leaves, who will take over the post of secretary and supervisor? ”

"Hasn't Guo Yu always performed well? Let him take over as secretary and supervisor. ”

As for the candidate to succeed Huangfu Zhen, Wei Shuo has already made arrangements, that is, Guo Yu, who he has always been very optimistic about.

"Tell me? Well, he's resourceful and knowledgeable, so he's a good fit. Huangfu really bowed slightly.

"Okay, let's talk about it in advance, and then we will continue to talk about government affairs and military affairs. What else needs to be dealt with? ”

"Back to my lord, this is an urgent report from the Military Division. According to Sun Weilai, the governor of Qingzhou, Kui An had accepted the appointment of the Jiangzuo court and assumed the post of assassin of Xuzhou. The front-line soldiers did not dare to concentrate on themselves, so they had to ask the general's palace for advice. Pei Changshi and Gao Junshi believed that this matter was very important, and it was up to Da Sima to make up his mind. ”

"Huh? Koto has a long hand! Stretched to Xuzhou so quickly? Wei Shuo said with a disdainful smile on his face.

Hearing this, Xie Ai sneered: "Hmph, my nearly 500,000 soldiers in Liaodong have fought bloodily to level the northern land of Qianhu, Jiang Zuo wants to get it for nothing?" How can there be such a cheap thing in the world? If he dared to stretch out his hand, there was no need for Da Sima to do it himself, and the minister personally led the troops to chop off his claws. ”

Xie Ai was born in a poor family, and he had no chance to stand out in Liangzhou, which was controlled by the family, and it was Da Sima who gave the world's poor scholars the opportunity to be promoted. Therefore, in Liaodong, scholars like Xie Ai did not have any good feelings towards Jiang Zuo at all, and they were also the most determined forces that supported Wei Shuo to replace the Sima family.

At this time, Wen Yang, Chen An, Yao Yizhong and other generals also shouted: "Captain Xie is right, the Central Plains, Hebei, and Huainan are all Liaodong soldiers in exchange for their lives, if Jiangdong dares to pick peaches, my hundreds of thousands of iron horsemen in Liaodong will definitely set foot in the land of the six states on the left side of the river, and by the way, let the Sima family vacate the throne for the big Sima." ”

Hearing that the more the crowd talked, Wei Shuo's face sank and he said coldly: "Okay, don't talk nonsense, it's better to think about how to take Xiangguo City as soon as possible!" ”

It's not that Wei Shuo doesn't want to replace Sima, but Wei Shuo knows that the time is not yet ripe, not to mention that there are still remnants of Hulu that have not been eliminated at present, even if Hulu is eliminated in the future, Liaodong's next key work will also restore the economy of the Central Plains. For more than a decade, all parts of the Central Plains have been devastated by wars and are in urgent need of economic development and stabilizing people's livelihood.

"Lord, how can you go back to Sun Dudu?"

"Tell Sun Wei not to have any scruples and immediately go south to attack Xuzhou. In addition, Cao Hong was appointed as the governor of Xuzhou, and asked him to assist Sun Wei in taking Xuzhou as soon as possible. ”

"In the end, Chu Ji helped me to go to the Wenmu Mansion again, and asked Wen Ji to issue an announcement to the outside world on my behalf, announcing to the outside world that Liaodong would never accept Jiangdong's appeasement of Hulu. At the same time, public opinion propaganda was launched to publicize all the sins created by the Karma in the Central Plains, so as to stimulate the people's hatred for the Karma. ”

Wei Shuo and the others had just finished discussing a few important matters, and before they could take a breath, they saw a guard break in and report: "Report to the Great Sima, Xiangguo City sent a messenger to ask to discuss negotiations with Liaodong. ”

"Negotiations? What qualifications does Xiangguo have to negotiate with Liaodong? Missing! Blow him away. ”

Seeing that Da Sima treated the envoy of Xiangguo so roughly, the faces of some of the people present suddenly changed slightly, and most of them were generals from Hu people of various ethnic groups. Before this, those Liuyi who were trapped in Xiangguo City had already secretly found them and asked them to say a good word in front of Da Sima, but seeing that Da Sima didn't even mean to meet a messenger, everyone couldn't help but feel worried.

"Wait!"

Wen Qiao stepped forward to stop Wei Shuo, who had made a rude decision, and said in a sincere tone: "Lord, the minister thinks that even if Liaodong has no plan to appease Xianghu, he might as well listen to what the envoy of Xiangguo said, and maybe he can find an opportunity to recover Xiangguo." ”

"Do you need it? Didn't Zhang Bin already control the North Gate? As long as the north gate is opened, isn't Xiangguo City at your fingertips? ”

"Lord, in addition to the Qianhu in Xiangguo City, there are many Jin people and Liuyi and other Hu people of various ethnic groups, needless to say, the Jin people will definitely stand on the side of Liaodong, if they can win over Liuyi again, the remaining Qianhu will not be worried."

"But what does this have to do with negotiations?" Wei Shuo was a little moved.

"Negotiate first to stabilize the Hulu in the city, and then buy time for Liaodong to win over Liuyi, once it is determined that Liuyi will surrender to us, immediately terminate the negotiations, and then the army will immediately attack the city." (To be continued.) )
