Chapter 238: Gai Xun's Clever Plan

The army set off, left Fujiao Fort, and marched all the way, and the road did not stop for a day, and finally entered the boundary of Sizhou on this day. 【Reading.com】

There is such a big thing in the east, naturally it can't be hidden, Jia Xu already knows about it, and even Gai Xun and Zhang Wen in Chang'an City know the news.

Gai Xun is a civil official, usually can press the military generals, for a long time, both civil and military, naturally the civilian officials are more dominant, but once the Han court is in danger and starts to fight, he is not very easy to use as a civil official, the more chaotic the situation, the more powerful the military generals will be, and the military power at this time is the best way to reflect the power of officials.

Gai Xun and Zhang Wen were a little bit of a disagreement, the two of them were one and the same, usually Gai Xun basically had the final say, they were blocked by Jia Xu in the city, although on the surface Gai Xun said vigorously, there will be no mistake in listening to him, everyone can sit back and relax, Zhang Wen can't help it if he doesn't listen, who made Gai Xun Jing Zhaoyin

But there was a big chaos east of Luoyang, Zhang Wen immediately didn't want to listen to Gai Xun, no one is a fool, Zhang Wen has become a captain of the boss, and he is naturally an old oilman in the officialdom, and he can naturally see the future situation in Sizhou.

When there is no chaos in the east, then Li Qin may not be good, even if he is good, Zhang Wen is not afraid, and Gai Xun is certainly not very afraid, after all, the Han world is still under the control of Luoyang, so Gai Xun can still speak with a little confidence, and he can confront Jia Xu.

But now there is a chaos in the east, and it is not a small chaos, the Yellow Turban Army almost has the strength to invade Luoyang, so now Li Qin wants to think about Sizhou again, then the Han court is already out of control, and even after Li Qin did something to Sizhou, the Han court has no way to punish him, in terms of Li Qin's strength, he can do whatever he wants to do to Sizhou, and no one in the entire Sizhou can resist, so how can he not do something out of the reason?

As a result, as soon as he thought about it, how to deal with it, Zhang Wen naturally understood, seeing that the current Fujiao Army was so happy in Sizhou, he could already be sure that Li Qin was not really hijacked, and he should come to Sizhou in person soon, Sizhou was occupied only a matter of time, he didn't want to accompany Gai Xun here, as a lieutenant of Si Li, this kind of time should go to King Qin and protect the emperor, Gai Xun is old, and he has no obligation to protect him

Zhang Wen didn't discuss with Gai Xun, he took his army out of Chang'an, and ran to Luoyang under the pretext of returning to King Qin, and his army was even more straightforward, and many people even brought their families with them, dragging their families and wanting to rush to Luoyang. The Han Dynasty has been peaceful for a long time, and the soldiers' ideas are very simple, the capital Luoyang is not very likely to fall, after all, it is just a rebellion of some mud legs, what kind of climate can it become, how arrogant Wang Mang was at the beginning, didn't he also be knocked down, not to mention that he couldn't even afford military uniforms, and could only take yellow cloth strips around the mud legs around his head, so they didn't believe that Luoyang would fall. However, Luoyang is fine, but Chang'an will definitely be fine, if Li Qin occupies Chang'an, how to treat them these soldiers is not necessarily, Gai Xun is not very good to them, why do they give Gai Xun a funeral, there is no need for this

Zhang Wen ran away with the Han army in the city, and even the Han soldiers who were not in Chang'an ran up, and the military attachés saw that the chief had run away, so they naturally refused to stay, and took their own troops and ran to Luoyang, which was called King Qin

As long as the excuse is leaning on the emperor, then they will flee from Sizhou, they will be guilty of merit, who will make them loyal ministers, and care about the safety of His Majesty the Emperor, so they can only give up the small for the big and let Gai Xun continue to stay in Chang'an, go cool alone, who made him disloyal and refused to go to King Qin

In less than a few days, the Han soldiers in Sizhou actually ran more than half, there were originally 30,000 soldiers and horses in the military register, in fact, there were not so many, only more than 20,000, but in a few days, it turned out to run 14,500, and the Han soldiers who continued to stay in Sizhou were only six or seven thousand, and these six or seven thousand people were natives, and they were all poor, not that these Han soldiers did not want to run, but left Sizhou, they did not know how to live, the so-called homeland is difficult to leave, they could only stay in the local area, and waited for Li Qin to come in fear.

Sizhou is empty, the guard ran away again, as Jingzhao Yin Gaixun almost fainted, he really didn't expect that Zhang Wen could run to King Qin at such a time, Mo said that Zhang Wen didn't discuss with him in advance, even if he discussed with him, he had no way to stop it, under the whole world, it was not the king's land, the shore of the land, it was not the king's minister, Luoyang was in danger, and no one could say that it was wrong when the soldier ran to King Qin, this is definitely a legitimate reason, and there is another advantage to using the reason of King Qin, that is, there is no need for the emperor to make a holy decree, and he is fighting, What if the messenger is killed by a thief on the way? So as long as there is danger, it is always not wrong to save the emperor as soon as possible, unless the emperor clearly states that he does not need to save him, but the emperor has not made it so clear.

Gai Xun is a good official as an official, and he is not bad to the people, but in the officialdom, he is a piece of hob meat, and no one can do anything about him, even if it is a character like Jia Xu, because he is a scoundrel, there is no way to take him, the soldiers have arrived in Chang'an, but they can't find an excuse to enter the city, so they can only toss outside Chang'an. Gai Xun saw that the momentum was not good, as the governor of Chang'an, he let it go, anyway, the dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, Li Qin can do it, if he has the ability, let him come to Chang'an and see what he can do

Carry forward the ability to treat things as if they didn't happen before they happen, Gai Xun didn't send people to chase Zhang Wen, let alone send people out to stabilize the situation in Sizhou, but stayed in the back office all day long, listening to songs and dancing, drinking and feasting, even if the sky fell...... Whoever loves to top will go to the top, anyway, he won't top

On this day, Gai Xun was drinking in the back office, and when he was drunk for three minutes, suddenly a government official came to report, saying that Li Qin had entered Sizhou with the Fujiao army, and the march was fast, and it was only a hundred miles away from Chang'an, and Jia Xu's army had also been assembled and was rushing to Chang'an, and it was estimated that the two Fujiao armies would meet under the city of Chang'an.

This news has long been spread in Chang'an City, many rich families are transferring property, and even many are already running to Luoyang, but because Gai Xun doesn't care about anything and refuses to go out to work, so his subordinates have not been able to tell him the news, but today it really can't be delayed, for the cavalry, a hundred miles away, the cavalry marches only a day, from them to get the news, and then report to Gai Xun, Gai Xun and then make a decision, in fact, at the same time as the decision is made, The Fujiao army had already come to the city again, so his men had to risk being scolded and beaten and reported the news to Gai Xun.

After Gai Xun listened, he was silent for a long time, and the official who reported the news looked at his own adult, and his heart was very anxious, not knowing what idea Gai Xun would come up with.

After thinking for a long time, Gai Xun finally spoke, and he said, "Are all the officials outside here coming now?" They're all waiting in the lobby, right? ”

The official hurriedly said: "If you go back to the lord, it is true, the adults who have stayed in the city now and have not left, all of them have come, and they are all waiting in the lobby, clamoring to see the master, if you don't go out again, I am afraid that they will break in."

Gai Xun snorted and said, "A group of incompetent rats, seeing Li Qin, are like seeing cats, let them not panic, they will all wait in the hall, and the official will go immediately."

Seeing that he was finally going to take out Jing Zhaoyin's posture, the official was happy in his heart, but he could be regarded as having a backbone, so he agreed repeatedly, trotted out, and went to inform the officials outside that Gai Xun was about to come out.

Gai Xun asked the servant to bring washing water, he washed his face, put on his official uniform again, and then walked out of the back office in a hurry.

In the lobby, the officials were almost so anxious that they jumped on the roof, and they had nothing to do in the face of the approaching Fujiao army

finally looked forward to Gai Xun coming out, and when he saw Gai Xun turning out from behind the screen, the officials rushed up and shouted: "Master Gai, Li Qin is coming to Chang'an, how to deal with it, you have to make up your mind, why didn't you come out for so many days, let me wait for so much anxiety"

Gai Xun waved his hand and said, "Everyone, don't be impatient. What can Li Qin do when he comes, I have my own way of dealing with it, why should you be anxious, it's really boring. ”

Seeing that he looked confident, the officials not only did not rest assured, but became more anxious, and an official said: "Lord Gai, even if you have a way to deal with it, you have to talk to the officials, you can't hold it alone and let the officials be anxious."

This official has spoken quite politely, the two main officials of Chang'an, Zhang Wen ran away, Gai Xun did not run, but there is no difference between staying and not staying, what does it matter, so what's the use of him as Jing Zhaoyin?

The other officials also showed a look of great dissatisfaction and looked at Gai Xun together. Gai Xun ignored them, sat on the couch in the middle, and said: "Everyone, don't worry, let's have a drink here today, and when Li Qin comes tomorrow, everything depends on the official, everything has nothing to do with you, don't be afraid, can't you still trust the official?"

He glanced at the officials in the hall, heyed, and said, "Are they all here?" Well, those people have fled, so let them escape, a great fortune is out of their share" waved at the servant and said, "Set up wine, sing and dance"

The officials looked at each other, not knowing what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, which showed that he was so calm and could only be obedient. The officials all sat down, each with their own hearts and minds, drinking and watching songs and dances with Gai Xun

This wine banquet was drunk until the branches on the moon, and then it dispersed.

Early the next morning, the officials came to the yamen early, waiting for Gai Xun to say something, according to the time, Li Qin will either arrive at noon today or this evening, what Gai Xun can do, now has to say.

But after the officials arrived, they didn't see Gai Xun, and they couldn't bear it anymore, so they broke into the back office together to question Gai Xun, but when they arrived at the back office, they learned that Gai Xun had gone out of the city as soon as he had a banquet last night, and he heard the servants say that it seemed that he was going to greet Li Qin

The officials were all dumbfounded, the method that this Lord Gai said was to surrender, even if he surrendered, why didn't he bring us with him?

An official suddenly shouted: "If one person surrenders, the credit is the greatest, so you don't have to share it with us."
