Chapter 40: Discussing Yang Ping
Cai Yong's reaction to Chen Lin was just as if he didn't know, and he asked a few words in surprise, as if nothing happened. In the end, Cai Yong said: "Bozhi, it's not too late, isn't it?" "But it's a grin. Chen Lin was taken aback, then remembered the purpose of today, and hurriedly said: "Oh yes, I almost forgot one thing, but I invited here today for the dog." When Cai Yong heard it, he didn't understand. Chen Lin: "Bin'er is now eight years old, it's time to have a teacher." ”
When Cai Yong heard this, how could he not be happy, although Cai Yong has lost interest in officialdom, it does not mean that Cai Yong has forgotten the vanity of human nature. Chen Bin is Chen Lin's son, and he will definitely be Chen Lin's successor in the future, and he can be the teacher of the overlord of one party, how much he will improve Cai Yong's reputation, you can imagine. Cai Yong agreed without hesitation, laughed, and immediately agreed to accept Chen Bin as a disciple.
Chen Lin's goal was achieved, but he seemed to have something on his mind, and he reluctantly left Cai's mansion, and Huang Yan and the others were already waiting outside the door. Standing in front of his mansion, looking at Chen Lin's appearance of turning back three times step by step, Cai Yong smiled and sighed again. Thinking of the sorrow of his own girl, Cai Yong really regretted his original decision, why did he promise her to the people of Hedong, even if he was an unknown poor boy, Cai Yan didn't need to be like this day. Cai Yong glanced at Chen Lin's back and said secretly: "Is there still a chance?" "Turn around and go home.
The next day, Chen Lin, as a father, took Chen Bin to the Cai Mansion with a gift to formally apprentice, and Chen Bin officially studied with Cai Yong every day. At the same time, the second son Chen Ding was also intentionally or unintentionally arranged by Chen Lin to be Gao Shun as a teacher, Zhou Cang and others practiced Chen Bin and Chen Ding's brothers every day, but Chen Bin had to take the time to learn from Cai Yong.
In the fifth year of the early peace of the Han Dynasty (194), the great Sima Li Dao and the general Guo Yan were in charge of the imperial court, and no one dared to provoke them, and their contempt for the Han family was especially better than Dong Zhuo back then. At the beginning of this year, in order to show their merits, the two generals changed the name of the year to the first year of Xingping, saying that the Han Dynasty will be guarded by the two of us from now on, and it will be able to prosper the Han Dynasty and be safe for generations. I don't know if the Han can be ZTE, but in Chang'an, west of Tongguan today, there is chaos. Li Wei and Guo Yan only care about fighting for power, and they are not good at governing the people's livelihood, and the suffering of the people is especially better than Dong Zhuo's back then. Many people drag their families from various trails and paths in the countryside and mountains to Yizhou and Luoyang, in short, they are far away from Guanzhong. The gap between Li Dao and Guo Yan is getting bigger and bigger, and the two people and horses are fighting more and more fiercely in private, often Li Dao's ten subordinates are beaten by Guo Yan's twenty people in the restaurant, and then on the second day, Li Dao's men and horses will do Guo Yan's people again.
Huangfu Song, the last famous general of the Han Dynasty, finally died depressed in this situation, the entire Han Dynasty, the entire Chang'an, only a few people were left to support it, and from time to time there were opportunities to meet with Emperor Xian, among which Dong Cheng was the most, and the others were either disarmed and returned to the field or switched to other parties. As time went by, the real overlord became more and more obvious, Hebei Yuan Benchu Gongsun Zhan, Yanzhou Cao * Xuzhou Tao Qian, Yuan Highway across Jingyu Yang Prefecture, Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian, Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao, Henan Yi Liu Bei, Yizhou Mu Chen Lin, Xiliang Ma Han two, others Beidi County Xu Rong Black Mountain thief Zhang Yan, and Zhang Ji uncle and nephew stationed in Huayin. Looking at the whole world, there are only these fourteen forces, everyone does not obey anyone's orders, they all do their own thing, and they have nothing to do with the imperial court controlled by Guo and Li in Guanzhong. The influence of the Liu clan of the Han dynasty is weakening day by day, and some nursery rhymes and legends have even appeared on the land of the Central Plains, calling the new emperor about to be born to replace the Han dynasty of the Liu family.
More than half a year has passed in Yizhou's comfortable days, and it is already June of the first year of Xingping, and on this day, the Yizhou Prefecture is full of people. Huang Yan whispered to Chen Lin: "Young Master, Mr. Jia has done his best, Mr. Jia said that the eldest young master can take action." "When everyone thought that Chen Lin had lost his number one think tank, Jia Xu, only a few people knew the truth. Jia Xu is not so much playing for Guo and Li in Guanzhong, but as Chen Lin's undercover agent. The two major intelligence systems frequently travel back and forth between Yizhou and Guanzhong, and Jia Xu hoped that Chen Lin could use troops against Guanzhong a month ago.
Chen Lin: "Did Wen He give any advice?" Huang Yan: "No, because Mr. Jia's situation is not so optimistic now, and the contact is not so easy, Mr. Jia just said this simply." When Chen Lin heard this, it was also, after all, it was someone else's territory, but there was Fazheng Zhang Song on his side, and it was not bad.
So Chen Lin said: "Everyone" instantly quieted down, Chen Lin: "Your Majesty is still suffering in Chang'an, now Guo and Li are not as good as Dong Zhongying to Your Majesty back then, as courtiers, how can they tolerate it, if you want to send troops to Yangpingguan, I don't know what you think?" As soon as Chen Lin finished speaking, the hall was different, Zhang Song and Fa Zheng first glanced at each other, and then each lowered his head and closed his eyes, seemingly in contemplation. And the generals, especially Zhang Wei, Yan Yan and others in the newly built troops, were even more bright-eyed. They need credit too much, Chen Zhi's army is far away in Shuzhong, if he sends troops to Guanzhong, it must be from Hanzhong to keep up with Yong, these idle and panicked warriors just want to fight and fight. However, people such as Yan Pu are a little bitter, these people usually preside over government affairs and people's livelihood development. With war, unlimited materials have to move closer to war, and many things that can be used to develop people's livelihood are gone, and they are indeed reluctant to give up.
This time, it was surprising that no one spoke for a long time, and although everyone's reaction was different, no one took the lead in speaking. Chen Lin looked at it, he was a little depressed, squinted his eyes and was about to speak, the guards below thought that Chen Lin was going to be angry, and no one of the courtiers answered when the lord asked, is it like a word. Wei Fang hurriedly stood up: "Lord." ”
As soon as Chen Lin saw it, he withdrew his voice and was about to shout, and everyone also turned to look at Wei Fang. Although Wei Fang was appointed by Chen Lin as Nan Zheng Ling as soon as he came in, some people were not convinced, but more than half a year has passed, and Wei Fang's ability has also been recognized by everyone. Wei Fang: "My lord, it's no secret that Chang'an Guo and Li are incompatible, but this is limited to the premise that there are no outside forces to join. If our army or any other soldier is in charge of Chang'an, Guo and Li will inevitably abandon their previous suspicions. The two of them work together, there are at least 100,000 troops, and the lord wants to send troops, but he has to think about it in the long run. ”
Chen Lin nodded, what Wei Fang said was indeed reasonable. Li and Guo are fighting, also because of power, but if someone sends troops to fight them, it will be fatal, and Guo and Li will definitely save their lives. At this time, Yan Pu said: "What Lord Wei said is reasonable, my lord, wouldn't it be better for our army to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight first, and then send troops when the two of them are both defeated." Yan Pu said it implicitly, but it was obvious that he did not agree with sending troops.
Many people have expressed their opinions one after another, only Fazheng and Zhang Song are left, and Chen Lin can't help but glance at Zhang Song and the others. As soon as the two looked at it, they knew that it was time, how could Zhang Song not see Chen Lin's thoughts, Chen Lin made it clear that he wanted to send troops immediately. Zhang Song is still a little jealous of this, Chen Lin's purpose is unknown to others, but Zhang Song secretly understands that Chen Lin still hopes that Jia Xu can return to Yizhou as soon as possible. But Zhang Song himself is arrogant, which makes Zhang Song even more energetic, and he wants to surpass Jia Xu properly. So he said, "Listen, everybody." Zhang Song didn't say it to Chen Lin, but to everyone. Zhang Song knew that Chen Lin's main purpose today was to persuade everyone, and sure enough, Chen Lin was happy when he heard Zhang Song say this.
"Let's talk to you about the situation in this pass, we all know that Guo Li is powerful, my Yizhou has a vast territory, although the soldiers are strong and strong, but after being distributed everywhere, there are not too many soldiers and horses to go out, so some people are worried about whether we can win." Zhang Song did not hide the problem that everyone is concerned about, that is, the question of victory or defeat after sending troops, in fact, if you face a war that must be won, I believe that no one will object, and the reason why everyone hesitates is that they are afraid of the final defeat.
"However, everyone has not seen the advantages of our army, imagine that there are fewer people who want to get rid of Guo and Li now? Yizhou is not alone in the face of Guo Li's hundreds of thousands of troops, the northern rebel general Xu Maozhi, and the more than 10,000 troops in the north are afraid that they are also panicked. "Xu Rong teamed up with Han Xian to send troops to confront Guo Yan a few years ago, although the war did not happen, but now that all parties have retreated, Xu Rong said that he was not worried about the revenge of Guo and Li, which was false.
"General Xiliang Ma, a prince for generations, and a famous general, Jincheng Han Wenyue and General Ma are sworn brothers, if General Ma sends troops, how can Han Wenyue not help. There is also Han Xian Baibo Army, Henan Yiliu Xuande Han clan relatives, I Yizhou, not alone. Zhang Song told all the forces around Guanzhong, and when Chen Lin noticed that Zhang Song said this, Fa Zheng rolled his eyes, and he didn't know what he thought. Chen Lin: "Do you have any suggestions for filial piety?" ”
Fa Zheng: "My lord, I just thought that I might as well send someone to Huayin." ”
Everyone, including Zhang Song, was taken aback, and Chen Lin and Zhang Song were the first to recover their faces. Huayin is Guo Li's sphere of influence, and the guards are generals Zhang Ji and Zhang Shidu, of course those who don't know don't know, Zhang Ji is obviously not a simple subordinate of Guo and Li now, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, Hu Che'er, etc., Zhang Ji resolutely formed an interest group of his own, and he was not very dependent on Guo and Li. Chen Lin first thought of this, and instantly understood the meaning of Fa Zheng.
But Chen Lin knew that although Fa Zheng said so, Zhang Song analyzed Guanzhong even more, but Guo Li's strength was still so huge, in this case, how to say anti-Zhang Ji, who has such ability.
Three days, three days later, Nanzheng's meeting ended, and an order was sent from the state capital to Shu County, the content was very simple, that is, Chen Dao and Shuzhong were guarded. In addition, the reaction of the various armies in Yizhou and the transportation of a large number of materials soon fell into the eyes of those who cared, and even Guo Li and the two of them in Chang'an were secretly aware of something.
