vs 18 The Struggle for Power in the Court [4]

Cao Cao spoke up, and no matter whether Yuan Shao really believed it or not, a mouth was like a surging river, endless:

"The eldest brother has also seen the people of Yuvrona. This is also a hero who has read military books and is famous for his intelligence among the Xiongnu clan. He led his elite cavalry of 1,000 people, rushed all the way, sneaked back to the Xiongnu, and wanted to break the arrogant department in one fell swoop. As a result, big brother, guess what? โ€

"Meng De said it quickly. If you want to make yourself anxious, I'm afraid it's more difficult than if you are anxious yourself. โ€

He Yan said with a smile on the side. Yuan Benchu's qi cultivation kung fu can be said to be well-known in the capital.

A few years ago, when Yuan Shao married the daughter of the Liu family as his stepfamily, the eunuch deliberately designed an accident on Yuan Shao's inevitable road, blocking Yuan Shao in the middle of the road for half an hour. Originally, the eunuchs were going to see Yuan Shao's jokes. As a result, Yuan Shao has always been calm and calm throughout the whole process, without any anxiety and rudeness.

After such an incident, in the aura of "Yuan Benchu, the world's model", there is another personal evaluation of "Mount Tai collapsed in front and the color remains unchanged".

When Cao Cao heard He Yan say this, he also knew that in front of these two, he really couldn't show it, so he didn't care, and said:

"That Yu Fuluo, when he was unguarded and rewarded the three armies with arrogance, attacked the arrogant military camp with elite cavalry, which can be said to have occupied all the time. The whole army of Zhang Mad gathered on a flat land, which was extremely conducive to the galloping of horses, and allowed Yuvro to occupy the advantageous position. In such a situation, even the emperor's general in the current dynasty is afraid that he will be powerless. โ€

"However, the arrogant guy actually fought to the death in such a situation. Not only did he fight to the death and not retreat, but that guy also used himself as bait to snipe at Yu Fuluo! โ€

"This man is bold. Extraordinary! โ€

Hearing Cao Cao's introduction, Yuan Shao expressed his emotion for the first time.

"There are such strong men, when they are floating!"

He Yan couldn't help but be moved, poured a glass of wine, and drank it in a big gulp.

Cao Cao saw that the two of them finally reacted, and became more and more excited. simply jumped up from the straw mat and danced hand to hand:

"Let's talk about that arrogance, the height of the birth is nine feet, the waist circumference is also nine feet, and the fat all over the body, I am afraid that there are no seven or eight hundred pounds......"

Cao Cao's words, of course, could not be Zhang Liao's original words. As an artist, Cao Cao had an automatic description of Zhang Liao in his head. There was some exaggeration.

And Zhang Liao himself, after all, did not see it with his own eyes, and the truth of that battle was also relayed from Lu Bu's simple introduction. was so exaggerated by Cao Cao, Yuan Shao became more and more sure that the so-called "ten thousand enemies" among the Taihang thieves were all boasting.

The rest of the time came into the garbage time of bragging. The trio took pleasure in Cao Cao's performance. I drank a stone of wine all the time, just because it was too late. The party dispersed.

Although Zhang Qi is only in the northwest border of the Han Dynasty and has made a little famous, he does not have the ability to influence the central power at all. However, his name has been remembered by the well-intentioned people in the court.

Such people. There are definitely more than Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. For example, now in Luoyang City, in addition to Liu Hong, the most powerful person is also by chance. Remembered the name of the insolence.

The most powerful person in Luoyang today is not the general He Jin, but the captain of the Xiyuan Army.

Although Jian Shuo is a eunuch, he is extremely strong, with a height of eight feet and eight inches, which can be called a tiger's back. If it weren't for the lack of a beard on his chin, he would look more like a man than a man.

Moreover, in terms of martial arts, Jian Shuo is recognized as the number one master of the inner court. When he took over the Xiyuan Army, in order to convince the army, Jian Shuo once used one person and one sword to challenge the three generals Gao Shun, Cheng Lian, and Zhu Ling, who were outstanding in the army, so that no one in the entire Xiyuan Army dared to fight.

It is precisely because of the capital with superb martial arts skills that Jian Shuo was able to be selected by Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, and sent to command tens of thousands of elite soldiers in the Xiyuan Army. You must know that among the "Ten Standing Attendants", there is a Zhao Zhong who serves as the "General of the Che Cavalry". If you rely on qualifications alone, Zhao Zhong obviously has an absolute advantage over Jian Shuo, who is just a "little yellow door".

However, this eunuch master, who was pinned on by the Son of Heaven and was actually added the title of "marshal" to suppress the general He Jin, now has the feeling of sitting on the fire and roasting, and he does not have the same spirit as when he was a military captain.

No matter how strong Jian Shuo's personal force is, in the barracks, eunuchs are eunuchs, just a group of "eggless" guys!

If the emperor sends a "no eggless" guy to the barracks to be a "supervisor", the big guy will naturally be accustomed to it, and he will not have any opinions. This kind of thing has had its source since the Spring and Autumn Period, and it is not surprising that the Han Dynasty, who was powerful in eunuchs for a while, was even more commonplace.

However, if a "no-egg" guy is allowed to serve as the commander of the first army, most of the officers and men of the three armies will be very dissatisfied. The Lord will "have no eggs", so won't everyone become "eggless" subordinates?

As a man, and he is the most yang martial artist, now when he walks out of the Xiyuan military camp, if someone asks: "Which general are you under it?" Inevitably, you will be ashamed of yourself. With such treatment, the morale of the soldiers can be imagined for Jian Shuo as a commander.

If Jian Shuo has the ability to manage the troops of those ancient famous generals, after a long time, the soldiers under him will slowly accept their bosses. However, don't forget, who gave the power of Jian Shuo?

There were many eunuchs in the court, and there was fierce competition among them. Not to mention anything else, Jian Shuo turned out to be a descendant of the "Ten Standing Servants", and now he actually relied on the favor of the Son of Heaven to become the first person in the court.

This kind of change that ascends to the sky step by step, if you say that the "Ten Standing Attendants" and the like have no suspicion about it, I am afraid that even the "Ten Standing Attendants" themselves are embarrassed to say it.

If he wants to keep the favor of the Son of Heaven undiminished, Jian Shuo must often appear in front of the Son of Heaven and serve the Son of Heaven. With such a drag, even if Jian Shuo is outstanding in martial arts, where will he have enough time to gather the army's heart?

What's more, although Jian Shuo's martial arts skills are superhuman, he is mediocre in the art of war and strategy, and he has no experience in commanding an army at all......

Therefore, Jian Shuo now desperately hopes that there is such a person under his command who can go deep into the Xiyuan Army for him and win the hearts of the army. When he saw that Captain Taihang was arrogant, and he actually relied on those "moth thieves" whose number was only a few thousand to regain the land that the Han had generously given him from the rebellious Huns, he was very interested in this nephew of Zhang Jiao.

- If this person can be used by me, he will definitely be able to rein in the army's heart and suppress that kid from the Yuan family!

It's just that Jian Shuo also knows that it is not a realistic thing to want to lure arrogance. Others don't know, could it be that as the direct executor of Ma Yiyuan's arrest back then, Jian Shuo still doesn't know the real purpose of Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Uprising?

Whether it is what Ma Yiyuan said or what Tang Zhou, a traitor to Taiping Dao, said, it directly proves that the direct purpose of Zhang Jiao's plan for the Yellow Turban Army uprising is not to change the dynasty, but to "Qing Jun's side"!

So, who is the person on the "king's side"?

There is no doubt that of course it is the eunuch line represented by the ten permanent servants.

According to the theory of "five virtues", the Han Dynasty regarded itself as "Fire Virtue", and if it wanted to destroy the Han Dynasty, it should take "Water Virtue" as the banner.

However, Zhang Jiao's banner is "Tude". And he didn't claim to be the son of heaven, he just called himself a general. According to the principle of "the five elements are born together", "fire" can give birth to "earth". These evidences all show one thing, that is:

โ€”โ€”Zhang Jiao just wants to seize the authority of the court through the way of "military advice", and then through a series of court reforms, once again let the Han Dynasty, which began to weaken, regain his vitality and achieve a "Han Zhongxing" that will go down in history!

For the Son of Heaven, whoever wants to seize the authority of the court is his worst enemy. However, after learning that Zhang Jiao actually had no intention of overthrowing the Han family, the Son of Heaven felt obviously much more comfortable in his heart.

This point, the arrogant treatment, can actually be used as proof. If today's son is disgusted with the Zhang Jiao family, how can he easily let Zhang Jiao succeed?

With such a "black history", Jian Shuo naturally knows that if he wants to let people from the Yellow Turban lineage sincerely help themselves, it is similar to "fishing for the moon in the water". Thinking of this, all he could do was sigh in his heart.

Although Jian Shuo is not a first-class figure of a wise man, he understands his own positioning. Today's most trusted eunuch is still a group of "Ten Standing Servants". Although he is also very favored by the Son of Heaven, he has never reached the point where he can ascend to the point where he can be below one person and above ten thousand.

The reason why the Son of Heaven pushed Jian Shuo, who was originally just a "little yellow gate", to the throne of military captain and marshal of soldiers and horses in the Xiyuan Army in one fell swoop, the reason is known to He Jin, and the ten permanent attendants also know. Even Jian Shuo himself, after the ecstasy of suddenly ascending to a high position, still understood.

There is only one reason for Jian Shuo's ascension, that is:

โ€”โ€”Between Jian Shuo and He Jin, it can be said that they are completely incompatible! (To be continued......)
