Chapter 55, Dong and Ma Confluence
Jia Xu looked at the letterhead in his hand, sighed deeply for a long time, and said, "Now it seems that this Yan Xing is by no means simple!" ”
Chen Xi next to him was stunned for a moment, and suddenly asked: "What do you mean by joining the army, this matter is still related to that Yan Xing?" ”
Jia Xu glanced at him and said lightly: "Wanton De won't really feel that he can almost play with Ma Shoucheng and Han Wenyue to applause, and he has endured it for so long before, and he can't even want the glory of the so-called general, and he almost gave up his own title as the first fierce general of Xiliang to that Ma Chao, maybe just to further attack the other party later, such a person will be such a simple character, right?" ”
Chen Xi was silent, but obviously agreed with Jia Xu's opinion.
In fact, even when Yan Xing was called the first military general in Xiliang, it was difficult for people to face it, although everyone in the Kansai area knew that there were many alien races and so-called heroes from all walks of life, and it was not easy to stand out among them, but after all, the eyes of the world were not focused on this most of the time, and this was not the Central Plains in the center of the world, so even if they could make a name for themselves and have strength, most of them would be annihilated by the environment; But in the dispute between Han and Ma, Yan Xing's gradual or "re-emergence" makes people can't help but look sideways.
Although it is still necessary to sum up whether Han Fu's disappearance has anything to do with Yan Xing, but Ma Teng, Ma Chao and his son have been deflated at their hands and even the former lost his life, but it is a fact, don't look at the rout of the Ma family's army because of the Cao Xing sent by Lu Bu, but in the confrontation with them, Yan Xing, who was obviously weak in terms of strength and momentum at that time, was able to stalemate and finally preserve a sufficient complete counterattack force, and Jia Xu decided that this Yan Xing was deliberately reserved. However, it is okay for Lu Bu to contain him, of course, this is also for the sake of Liangzhou, although Jingzhao is a little disobedient to discipline, and Guanzhong seems to be a little ready to move, but for Lu Bu, these are just clowns, just like those royalists in Luoyang City, in addition to being troublesome to send people to monitor their movements at any time, when did they really take them into their eyes?
Now Yan Xing is still stationed in Jincheng, on the other hand, there are still people who have been sent to stabilize the place, and they are also the people who contain Yan Xing. Lu Bu and Jia Xu also believed. This move may not be Yan Xing's opponent by force, and even the leading troops may not be as powerful as that Yan Xing, but he should be able to defend the place. Especially Liangzhou, an old chaotic place.
This person has an upright temperament. And if you meet someone who makes good use of it. can play its true role, in the original historical time and space, after he followed Cao Cao. He and Tian Yu have been guarding the border all the year round, and the two have cooperated very well, and Lu Bu also referred to this point this time, so he went with him, as well as Zhang He, who was transferred directly from Hebei, although the two are military generals, but their styles and personalities are very different, and the combination of Zhao and Tian Yu in history is actually similar, Lu Bu also believes that they will cooperate very well, with Zhang He, at least there is no need to worry about recruiting one person to deal with Yan Xing, after all, there is only one person on the other side, In the face of the combination of five good generals and a quasi-five good generals, can it still be stronger?
This qiē also stemmed from Lu Bu's distrust of Yan Xing, or his vigilance, and the facts finally proved that they were not thinking too much, just like the letterhead in Jia Xu's hand at this time, it was recorded that Zhang Xiu sent troops to merge with Ma Chao a few days ago and attacked Cao Xing, who was stationed in Hongnong County.
Speaking of which, there is also something worth discussing, that is, Zhang Xiu only led 10,000 horses out, but Hedong Li Ru and others did not react, and they didn't know whether this was approved by them and Zhang Xiu came to fight the front station, or they didn't know that Zhang Xiu did it from them.
But one thing is for sure, Zhang Xiu must not have a good impression of Lu Bu, originally Lu Bu once ran to challenge him and Hu Che'er in the starry night, which was already a layer of personal grudges, but at that time the two belonged to the same battalion, Zhang Xiu is also a person who knows the current affairs and can see the situation clearly, but then Lu Bu left, there is no so-called colleague and robe relationship, Zhang Xiu no longer has to worry about his hostility to Lu Bu, but that's all, and then the death of his uncle Zhang Ji, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu's uncle and nephew's feelings are famous in the Xiliang Army, Zhang Ji regards Zhang Xiu as his own, and Zhang Xiu has long regarded Zhang Ji as his father, Lu Bu and him can be regarded as having a grudge against his father, which can be regarded as making the two really stand on opposite sides, and there is absolutely no possibility of turning around.
However, what really made Jia Xu care was that Yan Xing was not in Jincheng, but led his troops in the Gyeonggi area, and he could have rushed to the aid quickly, but he waited until Cao Xing's soldiers and horses were exhausted before arriving at the place, and at this time, Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu's coalition army was not having a good time, probably they didn't expect Cao Xing to be so hard-hearted, and they would rather fight until they didn't have a single soldier, and never let the opponent go half a step forward, just like what they did for Lu Bu when he was in Bingzhou.
Yan Xing's behavior has to be suspicious, and even there is no need to doubt it, Jia Xu is very sure, he must have a different mind, the only thing that is not sure is that he is just trying to survive, or has greater ambitions.
But no matter what, this kind of behavior itself has already touched Lu Bu's bottom line, not to mention Cao Xing, a general who is valued and trusted by Lu Bu, even if it is other ordinary generals, Yan Xing should not and cannot do this, and he will definitely find an opportunity to ask him for blame later, if he doesn't seize the punishment, I don't know what will happen next time.
"That is ...... to Hedong" At this time, Chen Xi's opening made Jia Xu temporarily withdraw from the ideas related to Yan Xing, and then he thought of how to position Li Ru and them now, and how to deal with the menacing Dong (Dong Zhuo, here refers to the part of the forces left by Dong Zhuo) Ma Confluence, Chen Xi repeated it again, Jia Xu frowned and pondered for a moment, and then said: "Let's see their next movements first, and then make a decision, I think that the Taiwei side knows, and it will be like this." ”
Seeing that Jia Xu had moved Lu Bu out, Chen Xi naturally wouldn't say anything more, and he also felt that as Jia Xu said, Lu Bu would also say the same, after all, Chen Xi had also heard of his complicated relationship with that side.
In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Jia Xu is not willing to be an enemy of Li Ru.
Maybe it's because of sympathy, although this kind of word seems a little strange to use on him, but I have to say that following Lu Bu for a long time, he is no longer the Jia Wenhe who only wanted to protect his filial piety for his mother, and according to his understanding of Li Ru plus some speculation, Li Ru should not know Zhang Xiu's actions, but it is difficult to say what will happen next, after all......
Jia Xu shook his head, he wouldn't know that Li Ru was also shaking his head at this time, and his face was full of depression, which was the kind of depression that could not be brought out of suffering, which was also because Zhang Xiu privately led the troops to attack Cao Xing with Ma Chao, and now the person concerned knelt in front of him to plead guilty, and his appearance was quite sincere, but there was no good expression on the faces of the few people present.
According to the original intention of Li Ru and others, they are really unwilling to take the initiative to provoke Lu Budi, of course, it is impossible for them to take the initiative to submit to Lu Bu, after all, they do have a deep grudge against each other, especially when Lu Bu left, although now everyone knows the reason, but it is impossible to say that there is no complaint, such as Hua Xiong is one of the typical, he has always felt that if Dong Zhuo could be generous and Lu Bu could stay under Dong Zhuo, maybe they would have dominated the world today - okay, what he thought was very good, It's just that I still don't know much of it.
In addition, people like Xu Huang can't help but blame Lu Bu for why he didn't take himself away in the first place, although "the son is not ugly", but originally he didn't have much loyalty to Dong Zhuo, after all, he has always followed Yang Feng, it is Yang Feng who has the grace of knowing him instead of Dong Zhuo, after Yang Feng was belittled by Dong Zhuo and he was promoted, the two fell out, or Yang Feng put Xu Huang aside, and at this time Xu Huang actually has no one who can make him follow sincerely, Later, he continued to follow Dong Zhuo but was unwilling to change the dock at that time, and after Dong Zhuo's death, he mixed with Li Ru and them because of morality, if there was an opportunity to throw himself into Lu Bu, he would definitely not twist.
Speaking of which, several major high-level leaders still adopted the principle of respecting Lu Bu and not wanting to take the initiative to provoke Lu Bu, but unfortunately it has now been broken by Zhang Xiu.
Even Li Ru didn't expect that everyone couldn't talk about a result that day, and after breaking up unhappily, Zhang Xiu was so crazy that he followed Ma Chao to "ignite" the fire when he transferred troops privately.
Now that I think about it, it's also strange to him, although Dong Zhuo died and he used his prestige to make everyone still get together, but it was more like a loose alliance together, such as Xu Rong's 20,000 people, Xu Huang's thousands of people, Hua Xiong's more than 10,000 people, and the rest are Zhang Xiu's 10,000 people, and they are all under the control of their own generals, so Zhang Xiu led the troops to Li Ru and others to be an afterthought, and when they knew, it was too late to stop them, and after hearing their news, it was like this.
In fact, Zhang Xiu did it and did it, and there was no clear banner to drag them into the water, but what difference does this make?
Looking at Zhang Xiu kneeling in front of him, Li Ru was also a little soft-hearted, although he was selfish, but his approach really couldn't be said to be wrong, although he still failed in the end.
"Military advisor, now you look at this ......" Zhang Xiu made a fuss, which made Xu Rong a little out of ideas, so he could only look at Li Ru.
Li Ru rubbed his eyes, and only after a while did he sigh: "Bo Yuan, you really hurt me!" ”
Although he said this, Li Ru's eyes gradually became firm, and Zhang Xiu's delicate mind also heard the different meaning of the words, and he was immediately overjoyed...... (To be continued......)
