Li Ru said: "Lord, Liangzhou must not be saved." ”

Dong Zhuo said: "But now the eighteenth Kwantung coalition army, a total of more than 300,000 troops into the Bishui Pass, and our army is only 150,000, it is already at a disadvantage, if the army from Luoyang is transferred to reinforce Liangzhou, I am afraid that Luoyang will not be able to hold it, and the horse butchers have already captured Longxian, and now it is too late to draw reinforcements from Luoyang." ”

Li Ru said: "Luoyang to Liangzhou is thousands of miles away, and now it is of course too late to draw reinforcements from Luoyang, but the commander of the division of the school Zhong Xuan (after Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, in order to win over Zhong Xuan, he was gradually promoted from the Huangmen Shilang to the captain of the division) is sitting in Chang'an, and the original division of the army under his command is 8,000, Yang Qiu, Li Kan, Cheng Yi, Zhang Heng, Cheng Yin and other five cavalry are also stationed in Fufeng Maoling, and the total strength of several departments is still more than 20,000 people! ”

"Twenty thousand?" Dong Zhuo pondered for a moment, frowned and asked, "I don't know how many troops the horse butcher brought to attack Liangzhou?" ”

Li Ru said: "The horse butcher likes elite soldiers, and his army is well-equipped and well-trained, but the number of troops has not been large. Excluding the army left behind in the Hetao, a maximum of 20,000 troops can be drawn to attack Liangzhou. Since the traitor Xu Huang has taken refuge in the horse butcher, the 4,000 Hedong elite soldiers and the 6,000 Bingzhou elite soldiers under Xu Huang's command are afraid that they will also surrender together, but even so, Ma Yue's army in Liangzhou will not exceed 30,000 people. ”

Dong Zhuo frowned and said, "Even if the horse butcher only has 30,000 elite soldiers in Liangzhou, his strength is more than our army." ”

Li Ru said: "Although the horse butcher conquered Longxian, but the ten counties of Liangzhou are still under the control of our army, Beidi County Li Zhi, Li Bei, Li Xian three sons (Li Xuanzi nephew) still have 5,000 infantry under the command of Zhang Ye, Zhang Ye also has Guo Hao's 2,000 cavalry, Longxi has Gongzi Huang (the former Dong Zhuo's nephew is Dong Sheng, wrong, should be Dong Huang) of the 8,000 clan of the elite cavalry, the rest of the stability is too guard Huang Fujian, Jincheng is too shou Yan Wen, Hanyang is too shou Jiang Jian all have enmity with the Ma family, and it is impossible to take refuge in the horse butcher. Therefore, as long as the reinforcements can reach Liangzhou in time, things can still be done. ”

"And~~" Li Ru said this, his eyes showed a ruthless look, and he said in a condensed voice, "As long as you plan properly, you may even be able to destroy the horse butcher in Liangzhou in one fell swoop!" ”

Dong Zhuo hurriedly said: "Oh? ”

Li Ru said in a gloomy voice: "The lord can order the Son of Heaven to issue an edict, and order Wang Yuan, the chief of the Western Regions (the father of the fierce general Wang Shuang), to levy and send troops from the 36 countries of the Western Regions, such as Shanxi, Cheshi, and Qiuzi, to get at least 40,000 or 50,000 cavalry, and then link up with Hutu to enter the east and enter the north, and cut off the road for Ma Yue to retreat back to the Hetao. ”

Dong Zhuoxi said: "If it weren't for Wen Xiu's reminder, General Ben wouldn't have known that the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions could still recruit such a huge army, hahaha~~"

Li Ru sighed: "This is also a last resort, the rescue troops of the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions can only be used for a while, but they cannot be used for one life, this time let the countries of the Western Regions see the war-torn Liangzhou, the great Han Tianwei will be wiped out in their hearts, and from now on, the Western Regions will no longer be under the jurisdiction of China." ”

Dong Zhuo said: "That's later, and now it's the most important thing to solve the crisis in Liangzhou." ”

Li Ru said: "However, these are not the most important, the most important thing is to quickly transfer a cadre to serve as the assassin of Liangzhou, coordinate the defense of the ten counties of Liangzhou, coordinate the allocation of grain and grass materials, and then send a general to stabilize the situation in Liangzhou, so that the army of the ten counties of Liangzhou can be unified and clearly dispatched, otherwise, let the chaotic situation continue, the counties of Liangzhou are likely to be broken by the horse butchers, and at that time, even if the lord transfers 100,000 cavalry from the Western Regions, he is afraid that he will not be able to save the defeat." ”

"Hmm~~" Dong Zhuo nodded, "I don't know what Wen Xiu thinks?" ”

Li Ru said: "Sili Lieutenant Zhong Xuan can be the assassin of Liangzhou, and the general of the army is none other than General Xu Rong!" ”

Dong Zhuo said: "According to what Wen Xiu said, quickly order Zhong Xuan to lead the army west to Hanyang to stabilize the situation, Yang Qiu, Zhang Heng, Hou Xuan, Li Kan, Cheng Yin and other five cavalry in front of Zhong Xuan's tent to listen to the tune, there must be no mistake, and then send Zhang Ji to Bingzhou to replace Xu Rong, and go to Liangzhou to lead all the armies in the starry night!" ”

Li Ru arched his hand and said, "Confucian, let's do it." ”

……

Hanyang County is located 500 miles west of Chang'an.

Hanyang County is the most populous county among the ten counties in Liangzhou, with a total population of only more than 400,000 in Liangzhou, and more than 150,000 people in Hanyang County alone, accounting for almost one-third of the total population of Liangzhou! There are a total of 13 cities in Hanyang County, and the county is the largest city.

Jicheng is located in the southwest of Longxian County, and the two cities are only more than 200 miles apart.

Hanyang Taishou Jiang Jian is the nephew of Jiang Xu in Liangzhou, and Ma Teng rebelled, the rebels broke through Longxian, Jiang Xu and Yan Zhong and Assassin Shi Geng died in the chaos. Later, Dong Zhuo pacified Liangzhou, and in order to win over the Jiang family, Jiang Jian was appointed as the Hanyang Taishou, and the original Hanyang Taishou Fu Xie was transferred to Wuwei as the Taishou.

The surname Jiang is the big surname of Hanyang, which is also known as the gate valve.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the power of the scholar clan was extremely strong, and almost all the officials of the imperial court and various states and counties were produced in a fixed family of gate valves, and it was difficult for poor children to have the opportunity to enter the court! It wasn't until the decline of the Han dynasty and the secession of the warlords that the power of the scholar clan was hit by the destruction of the surname!

After that, it was not until Wei, Wu, and Shu divided the world, as well as the Eastern and Western Jin Dynasty, that the power of the Shi clan gate lords re-emerged.

However, in the early years of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty (188), the situation of warlord secession had not really taken shape, and the power of the Shi clan gate lords was at its peak in the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, just like the Jiang family at this time, which had a decisive impact on the situation in Hanyang County and even Liangzhou.

Ma Yue's attack on Liangzhou was to occupy territory, not to loot, which was very different from the Xianbei people who attacked Mobei. Attacking the Xianbei people is actually bloody burning and looting, robbing cattle, horses, and women, and leaving after robbing, but this is not the case with the attack on Liangzhou, after Liangzhou is defeated, it is still necessary to send people to govern.

Since we want to govern, there is a practical question involved, that is, who will govern?

Ma Yue's 3,000 old troops are brave and good at fighting, and there is no ambiguity in killing, but it is a bit difficult to let them govern one side as officials. These old people who don't know a single big character can barely be able to be thousands or hundreds of households on the desert grassland, but they can come to Liangzhou to be the Taishou and the county order, and the red tape and correspondence of officialdom alone can force them to suicide.

In addition to the three thousand old departments, who else can Ma Yue let govern Liangzhou?

In the past two years, Guan Ning has indeed cultivated a lot of poor children in Hetao, and it is difficult to let these young Junyan with no political experience serve as state pastors and county guards, but it is more than enough to be a small county commander, but the question is, can Ma Yue arbitrarily install Guan Ning's disciples to serve as county commanders in various counties and counties in Liangzhou?

Of course not!

The xenophobia of the Han people in the Han Dynasty can be said to be quite serious, and "if it is not my race, it must be different" was the general consciousness at that time.

In the official history, if Liu Bei hadn't married Mi Zhu and Mi Fang's younger sisters and climbed into marriage with the Mi family, he would not have been recognized by the local gate valve in Xuzhou, and it would have been impossible for him to sit firmly in the position of Xuzhou pastor! Although Lu Bu forcibly occupied Xuzhou by force, he was quickly destroyed by Cao Ying because he did not have a good relationship with the local scholar clan.

Another example is Liu Biao in Jingzhou, if he hadn't married Cai Mao's sister and had a relationship with the Cai family of the Jingxiang clan, it would have been impossible for him to sit in the position of Jingzhou Thorn History with his white clothes.

In other words, if Ma Yue is not able to take care of the scholars in the counties of Liangzhou and cannot balance the interests of the major families well, even if he can defeat Liangzhou, he will not be able to defend it! Unless Ma Yue can treat the Xianbei people of Mobei like he treated, he will also have a bloodbath in Liangzhou and uproot the power of the major scholar clans.

But in this way, Ma Yue will also arouse the public indignation of the world like Dong Zhuo, and become the public enemy of all the scholars in the world!

Will Ma Yue do that?

……

Late at night, Longxian.

Ma Yue's temporary residence.

Under the dim mutton oil light, Jia Xu said to Ma Yue with a solemn expression: "Lord, the Black Bull and Black Tiger brothers sent to Jicheng are back. ”

"Oh?" Ma Yue said, "What did Jiang Jian (pronounced jiong) say? ”

Jia Xu sighed and said, "The bodies of the two brothers, Black Bull and Black Tiger, are back, but their heads are left in Jicheng, this is Jiang Yan's reply to the lord." ”

"What!?" Ma Yue's eyes suddenly revealed a terrifying murderous intent, and he said sharply, "If you don't sacrifice the city, you can even dare to kill the soldiers who have followed General Ben for many years, it is really innocent!" ”

Jia Xu sighed: "Xu just learned that this Jiang Jian is the nephew of Jiang Xu in Liangzhou, and Jiang Xu was killed by General Ma Teng, so Jiang Yan refused to sacrifice the city, and killed the Black Bull and Black Tiger brothers to vent his personal anger." ”

"Damn!" Ma Yue clenched his fists fiercely, raised his head and said sharply, "Where is Dian Wei?" ”

"In!"

There was a thunderous shout outside the hall.

In the sound of heavy footsteps, the tower-like body of Dian Wei had already entered and said quickly: "What does the lord command?" ”

"Blow the trumpet, gather the army!" Ma Yue burst out a cold sentence from between his teeth, "General Ben wants to raise troops overnight, wash Jicheng with blood, and avenge the Black Bull and Black Tiger brothers!" ”

"My lord." Jia Xu's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly persuaded, "Don't be rash." ”

"Wen He doesn't need to say much." Ma Yue said sharply, "The Black Bull and Black Tiger brothers have followed General Ben for many years, and many big battles and vicious battles have come over, but I didn't expect to die in Jicheng today, this revenge is not avenged, how can General Ben face the three thousand old troops?" How can you face the ghosts of the dead on the battlefield? What more face exists between heaven and earth? ”

Jia Xu said: "But whether Jiang Jian is honest or not is related to the overall situation of Hanyang, the overall situation of Liangzhou, and the reputation of the lord, you must not be careful~~"

"Killing people pays for their lives, and debts are repaid, as it has been since ancient times!" Ma Yue glared at Jia Xu viciously, and said sharply, "General Ben's soldiers are all good, as long as General Ben gives an order, they dare to break through the sword mountain and the sea of fire, and they will not frown in the water and fire, now that they have lost their lives, how can General Ben sit idly by?" In a word, the Black Bull and Black Tiger brothers cannot die in vain, their blood cannot be shed in vain, and the blood debt must be repaid with blood, it's that simple! ”

Jia Xu said: "Does the lord want to be the enemy of the clan lords of the world?" ”

Ma Yue said: "If you kill Jiang Jian and you are the enemy of the world's corporal clan, then what if General Ben slaughters the world's corporal clan?" ”

"What? This ......"

Jia Xu was awe-struck and couldn't say a word for a long time.

Ma Yue no longer paid attention to Jia Xu, shook his cloak fiercely, turned around and walked away. In less than a moment, the horn sounded at the head of Longxian County, and in an instant, the originally peaceful Longxian County began to make noise, and the soldiers who had not had time to rest came out of the barracks in groups and began to assemble outside the city.

Jia Xu came to the city a little lonely, and saw a team of neatly armored soldiers driving outside the city, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh! Jia Xu claims to have insight into people's surnames, and he has never looked at people, but this time he has to admit that he has looked away. Jia Xu really didn't expect that behind Ma Yue's ruthlessness and cruelty and thirst for killing, he would hide such a bloody side.

Ma Yue's blood surname once served in the Tiger Prison Pass, and once inspired all the soldiers of the 800 Liukou in the Changshe, and the idea of never abandoning and never giving up has since been deeply rooted in the hearts of the 800 Liukou, and the 800 Liukou have since transformed from a group of ferocious and murderous tiger and wolf gangsters into an elite army that cannot be dragged to death or defeated.

From the soldier's point of view, having a master like Ma Yue will be a blessing for every soldier, Ma Yue treats his soldiers like brothers, as long as Ma Yue has a bite to eat, he will never starve any soldier, if a soldier has no food, then Ma Yue must still be hungry.

In order to allow the soldiers to survive on the battlefield as much as possible, Ma Yue can be said to have done everything to improve the army's equipment, if he can equip iron armor, he will never wear leather armor, if he can ride a horse, he will never let soldiers walk, even if the size of the army is reduced to only half of it, he will never let soldiers carry wooden guns and knives to the battlefield.

As long as he has been a soldier of Ma Yue, as long as he has followed Ma Yue to fight, whether it is a Yellow Turban veteran, or an officer or soldier who surrendered, or a homeless person recruited after arriving in Youzhou, or even a Wuhuan person, no one is not infected by Ma Yue's blood surname, and everyone does not hesitate to go to the soup for him!

There is only one thought in the simple minds of these soldiers, to work for a master like Ma Yue, it is worth it!

Jia Xu was also infected by Ma Yue's blood surname, but in addition to being Ma Yue's subordinate, he was also Ma Yue's military advisor, and as a military advisor, he must always keep a clear head. Jia Xu knows very well that the blood surname of the main general can indeed inspire the soldiers' determination to die and gain the recognition of the soldiers, which is Ma Yue's advantage, but in the same way, this is also Ma Yue's disadvantage.

Because at this time, Ma Yue's blood surname will bring a disaster!

The consequences of the bloodbath in Jicheng were extremely serious. Ma Yue used to be a thief, although this identity was spurned by many scholars, but now things have changed, Ma Yue is already the first emperor of Liangzhou Thorn History, and he is a big Han horse, his identity and reputation have changed greatly, and it is not difficult to win the support of some scholars who have a wait-and-see attitude.

But if the blood of Jicheng is washed, the situation will be completely different, and this part of the wait-and-see Shi clan will completely fall to the opposite side of Ma Yue, and completely collude with Dong Zhuo's core forces such as Dong Huang, Li Ju, and Guo Hao. In this way, Ma Yue's desire to rely on the local forces of Liangzhou to govern Liangzhou has come to naught, and there is only one way left, that is, to uproot the power of the Shi clan in Liangzhou by iron-fisted means.

After uprooting the power of the Shi clan gate lords in Liangzhou, Ma Yue's fierce reputation will spread all over the world, and eventually become the object of fear of all the Shi clan gate lords in the world.

At that time, almost all the talents in the world came from the Shi clan gate valve, and losing the support of the Shi clan gate valve meant losing the qualification to compete in the Central Plains.

Jia Xu, as Ma Yue's military advisor, of course he would not allow such a situation to happen!

Bloodbathing Jicheng is inevitable, and Jia Xu knows Ma Yue's surname very well. Ma Yue is usually open-minded and very good at accepting the words of his subordinates, but once a decision is made, it is not something that anyone can change! Therefore, the only thing Jia Xu can do and think about now is how to weaken or even eliminate the negative impact of Ma Yue's bloody Jicheng.

At the west gate of Longxian County, Ma Yue was wearing heavy armor, standing proudly at the head of the city, Dian Wei held a burning mutton fat torch and immediately jumped beside him, the red fire shone on the side profile of Ma Yue's face, the concave and convex shadows particularly set off the hideousness of Ma Yue's expression, and a pair of black eyes were more like the beast eyes of the wolf king under the moon, revealing a cold forest.

Under Longxian County, the 6,000 elite soldiers who followed Xu Huang to surrender have been assembled! Although Ma Yue deplored the death of his own soldiers, he was not overwhelmed by anger. It's not that Ma Yue doesn't know the consequences of the bloodbath in Jicheng, it's just that ~~ the way he thinks about the problem, or the starting point of considering the problem, is different from Jia Xu.
