Liu Xiu took the newspaper and read it for a long time, the development of the war in Shandong was basically not what he expected, and he even felt that it was not lively enough, this Yellow Turban Army was really not good, first it was beaten by Huangfu Song and Cao Cāo, and then Zhang Mancheng was slaughtered by Yuan Shu, and the only commendable thing was that Zhang Jiao led the main force to defeat Dong Zhuo. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but Dong Zhuo is the weakest one in the three-way official army, while Zhang Jiao is the strongest one in the Yellow Turban Army, victory is expected, and defeat is wrong.
It's the same as Tian Ji horse racing, take the top and the bottom, can you not win? Winning is not called winning, and losing is called defeat.
Take a step back and say, what kind of ability is it for the 80,000 army to bully Dong Zhuo? Dong Zhuo can really command, I'm afraid that it is his 1,000 Jing Rui troops brought from Xiliang, the combat strength of the five schools of the Northern Army is not bad, but the strongest Changshui battalion was taken away by Cao Cāo, and among the remaining battalions, Wang Kuang and Chun Yuqiong probably won't take Dong Zhuo in their eyes, it would be good if they didn't make a stumbling block for Dong Zhuo, Jian Wu and Zhao Yanma, everyone is making war merits, but they don't want to earn war merits for you.
Brother Dong Zhuo, it's really pitiful.
However, the blood tonic function of this Yellow Turban Army is really strong, as soon as Zhang Mancheng died, he actually immediately replenished 100,000 people, if he was not careful, one person would be enough to drink a pot of saliva.
Liu Xiu shook the newspaper in his hand and looked at Xun Yu with a puzzled expression. When he read the Di newspaper just now, he already felt that Xun Yu was observing him, and he couldn't get Xun Yu's worry from the Di newspaper at all, Liu Xiu instinctively felt that Xun Yu was a little drunk.
"The imperial court fought a good battle, it seems that the next thing is to encircle and annihilate Zhang Jiao himself." Liu Xiu showed a relieved smile, "Although we didn't participate in the war, we also have merit, and two thousand war horses can solve a lot of big problems." ”
Xun Yu hurriedly avoided his eyes, and quickly took out another edict from his sleeve: "General, you will talk about this after reading this." ”
Liu Xiu was a little surprised, but he didn't say anything, and then he took a look, it was the edict that the Son of Heaven wanted to transfer another two thousand war horses, and the Son of Heaven did not specify where it was transferred, but since the edict was sent to Guanzhong, it was naturally arranged by Liu Xiu.
The key problem is that the Son of Heaven did not mention the matter of money.
"This ...... What is the meaning? Liu Xiu shook the edict.
"The Son of Heaven has no money." Xun Yu smiled bitterly, "If my guess is right, these two thousand war horses are still for Cao Cāo, then what should Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu do next?" They will definitely ask for the transfer of war horses, but the Son of Heaven does not have it, and if he does, he does not want to give it, so he cannot stop the Yuan family from buying it himself.
General, have you thought about the consequences of doing this? ”。
Of course, Liu Xiu understood that the Son of Heaven had no money, but he couldn't do such an obvious unfairness, so he could only say that the two thousand war horses were asked by Cao Cāo himself, and if your Yuan family wanted them, then they could only buy them themselves. The Son of Heaven may be able to make a fortune from it, but the problem is that the Yuan family has a legitimate reason to make money to equip the cavalry, and if you want to control it in the future, you can't control it. Moreover, the Yuan family has a large number of followers, this one buys dozens of horses, and that one buys dozens of horses, and when they get together, it is likely to be thousands of horses.
A few thousand cavalry in the entire Northern Army? There are less than three thousand, and now Yuan Shao alone has five thousand Jing horses, and he will soon be able to break through ten thousand, except for the border army of the three states of Youhe and Liang, is it necessary for the Yuan family to listen to the Son of Heaven?
This is the problem that Xun Yu is worried about the loss of military power.
And another worry that Xun Yu didn't say was that the Son of Heaven could not balance the Yuan family, so he could only use him Liu Xiu to balance the Yuan family, and let him lead the border army into the Central Plains.
This is a more serious loss of military power. Xun Yu was worried about the Yuan family, which was on the surface, but worried about him Liu Xiu was deep.
What should Liu Xiuneng do? He can only pretend to be confused, dealing with this kind of person jing, especially someone who is not completely single-minded, it is definitely not an easy thing to deal with, and if he is accidentally sold, he will help him count the money.
Xun Yu couldn't see anything unusual on Liu Xiu's face, and he didn't know if Liu Xiu really didn't understand, or if he didn't have the psychology of taking advantage of the fire to rob at all, so he explained the problem he was worried about, Liu Xiu "suddenly realized", and then asked very earnestly: "Then what should we do?" ”
Xun Yu hesitated a little: "I rushed here to discuss with the general, to see if I can give the war horse to His Majesty first, pass the current level, and then ......."
"For free?" Without waiting for Liu Xiu to speak, Yan Zhong asked very "surprised": "Wen Ruo, you don't want to force the Qiang and Huns against again, right?" ”
Xun Yu was speechless, so he had to look at Liu Xiu with a believing gaze, he couldn't afford the big hat that Yan Zhong threw over.
"This ...... It's hard to do. Liu Xiu looked at him left and right, feeling a little lost in his heart. Xun Yu rushed here, it turned out that it was still for the sake of the imperial court, he knew that Liangzhou and Bingzhou were waiting for the rice to be cooked, but he could still make this suggestion, and would rather dig up his limited foundation to pay for the stupidity of the Son of Heaven. In Xun Yu's view, maybe this is a matter of course, whether it is Liangzhou or Bingzhou, it is the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven trusts him Liu Xiu, which allows him to take over the two states, and he should support the Son of Heaven unreservedly in order to repay the king's kindness. But in his opinion, Xun Yu, as General Wei's long history, what position did he put in? In his eyes, can't he see at all that the next person who has no strength will die an ugly death?
Fortunately, there is Yan Zhong, and the reason is very legitimate, and the only resource in Liang now is war horses, if the war horses are given in vain, how can the Huns and Qiang people in Liangzhou live? If they are reversed, then the big man is really hopeless. Besides, Liangzhou is newly determined, the warrior ranch has only been open for a year, the Qilian ranch is still in preparation, there are not many war horses to adjust, and the two ranches in the state raise 10,000 horses each, but they can only produce five or six thousand war horses every year, some of which have to be supplied to the border army of Benzhou, which can be provided to the imperial court is limited, and now two thousand horses have been given, and at most three or four thousand horses can be drawn, the Yuan family just wants to buy them, and Liu Xiu has no horses to sell to him.
Yan Zhong's reasons are very sufficient, and he has left Xun Yu face, Liu Xiu doesn't need to say a word at all, just use to show a really like this expression on the side, Xun Yu has nothing to say. Although he is the governor of the Wei General's Mansion, he only knows the wealth of Liangzhou, and is not familiar with the specific situation of the state, and he knows nothing about the financial resources that Liu Xiu hid in the secret.
"Wen Ruo, you don't have to worry, I don't think things will develop to that point." Liu Xiu in turn comforted Xun Yu and said: "With the ability of Huangfu Song and Cao Cāo, after they solve the Yellow Turban in Yanzhou and Yuzhou, they will soon be able to move to the other two places, maybe the fall of the Yellow Turban is just around the corner, and it will not give the Yuan family a chance to expand their forces at all." ”
Xun Yu smacked his lips and didn't say anything, in fact, in his opinion, Cao Cāo's strength skyrocketed even more terrifying than the expansion of the Yuan family's strength. Because Cao Cāo may not only help the Song family become a relative, but he also has a background of eunuchs, which are the two stubborn diseases that have caused the most harm to the Han Dynasty. However, he knew that Liu Xiu had a good relationship with Cao Cāo and the Song family, and he was also very close to the eunuchs, so it was inappropriate to say these things in front of him.
……
Zhang Jiao waved his hand, interrupting Zhang Ming's words, his mind is not on that ring now, just over a month, Zhang Mancheng died in battle, Peng Tuo died in battle, Bo Cai died in battle, Wancheng was surrounded by Yuan Shu, Bu Ji was surrounded by Huangfu Song and Cao Cāo between Liang Pei, survival and death were only in the evening, the rapid change of the battle situation made him a little overwhelmed, how could he be in the mood to care about the holy object that could not be used at all.
"Master, this matter can't be delayed." Zhang Ming was also anxious, since the Taiping Army uprising, what he has done except for Liangzhou and his party is this one, Liangzhou won first and then lost, but let Liu Xiu seize the opportunity, if this matter is unresolved again, what is the matter with him, the eight disciples? Zhang Mancheng is dead, and the gods are vacant, and he still wants to fight.
"He's just, I send people over, can he give me holy things?" Zhang Jiao was annoyed and shouted: "Yuansheng, what's the matter with you, you've been so impetuous lately, where are your years of practice?" ”
Zhang Ming saw that Zhang Jiao was angry and didn't dare to say anything more. When the kingdom heard this, he twisted his beard and muttered for a moment, then got up and said, "Great sage and good teacher, I don't think this matter can be delayed. ”
Zhang Jiao turned his face and looked at the kingdom with displeasure, but he didn't get angry, the kingdom knows that the soldiers are good, and he is the most useful one among the disciples, and the kingdom is meritorious in defeating Dong Zhuo last time.
"Huangfu Song and Senior Brother Peng have been in a stalemate for more than half a year, why can they suddenly succeed? Without him, Cao Cāo's cavalry came to the aid of Er. Our Yellow Turban Army has a million people, but there is no cavalry, and the cavalry will be the most difficult opponent in our field battle. ”
Zhang Jiao's eyes rolled, and he also understood.
"Where do the cavalry's horses come from? At the moment, there is only Heliang, if we annoy Liu Xiu...... "Wang Guo didn't say anything, just looked at Zhang Jiao, although Zhang Jiao was very depressed, he had to nod again and again, annoying Liu Xiu, it didn't do him any good. Liu Xiu has not gone east because the Son of Heaven has suppressed him, and now the Son of Heaven is very dissatisfied with his move to appease the powerful of the family, it is difficult to say when Liu Xiu will be transferred to the war, even if the Son of Heaven does not issue an edict, it is not easy for Liu Xiu to secretly make a little bad? Just like the last time he sent two hundred people to help Lu Zhi, he casually arranged a few generals who were good at cavalry to go to Kanto, and it was likely that he would not be able to eat and walk around.
"However, if the Holy Aunt is sent over like this, he will definitely not give me the holy relics." Zhang Jiao said worriedly.
"Put aside the relics in advance, but we can buy war horses from him." Wang Guodao: "If we also have a war horse, can Huangfu Song and Cao Cāo still be so arrogant?" ”。
"Buying a war horse?" Zhang Jiao's eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at the kingdom happily, and felt that this disciple was really smart, how could he come up with this method? Moreover, he is from Xiliang, so he must be no stranger to cavalry warfare, at least more familiar than these people under him. "That's a good idea, if we can also have a few thousand cavalry, then what can the officers and soldiers do to me?"
"What the master said is very true." Wang Guo said with a smile: "Liangzhou is too far away, the pasture garden is newly opened, and the number of war horses is limited, but Bingzhou is very close to us, as long as Liu Xiu nods, we will soon be able to transfer horses from Bingzhou." Besides, Liu Xiu is stretched thin in Liangzhou, and he will definitely not refuse this huge amount of money. ”
Zhang Jiao nodded again and again, so that he would have the strength to bargain with the Son of Heaven.
"Yuansheng, you go to Guanzhong again and buy it from Liu Xiu."
