Chapter 17: A Token
Dong Shouye didn't urge, he wasn't in a hurry, he waited there quietly like a nobody.
The reason why I am not in a hurry is because I am confident in the combat power of the troops under my command, and on the other hand, I also have some support.
Dian Wei and Hua Xiong were a little breathless, and they were scratching their ears and cheeks in their respective positions, as anxious as ants on a hot pot, Dong Shouye also felt a little funny when he saw it, and he was also a little moved in his heart. The two righteous brothers, the eldest brother Xu Huang and the second brother Zhang Liao also fell into contemplation like the military advisor Jia Xu.
After a long while, Jia Xu finally came back to his senses from his contemplation and asked, "Is there something I need to confirm with my son?" ”
Dong Shouye replied: "The military advisor, please speak, the general knows everything, and he has no end to it." ”
Jia Xu asked again: "I wonder if Gongzi was authorized by the Prime Minister when he came, in addition to letting Gongzi be responsible for the war against Sun Jian, did he give Gongzi the right to control the armies around Luoyang, and did he have the right to mobilize the troops around Luoyang to cooperate with Gongzi in fighting?" ”
Dong Shouye nodded, then took out a token from the close position on his body, held it in his hand, and then said, "My father did give Benjiang a token before Benjiang left. Let Ben use it when the war worsens, and indeed have the right to mobilize troops and horses around Luoyang. However, my father also instructed me not to use it lightly. ”
When Dong Shouye received the token from his father Dong Zhuo at that time, he couldn't help but be a little moved, because the rights represented by this token were too huge, and it can be said that most of the Xiliang Army was handed over to Dong Shouye.
At this time, Dong Shouye couldn't help but think of the later "Romance of the Gods", whenever the apprentice wanted to go down the mountain, the master was worried that the apprentice's skills were not good and he would lose his life in the disaster. This Nezha's equipment is probably the most numerous and powerful in the same level.
The love of parents for their children is far-reaching.
The beloved son of his parents, Dong Zhuo must do everything he can to protect his son's safety and protect Dong Shouye's life.
Jia Xu was overjoyed when he saw this, as long as this thing is stored, it will be very good, as for whether it is used or not, it will be a matter of the future, at least in the current news, it can greatly boost morale. At this time, Jia Xu made up his mind, and then said: "Childe, since you have this token in your hand, you can mobilize the surrounding people, then the next battle will not be so risky." Now that the situation is urgent, this token is just right. ”
Since he has a treasure in his hand, how can the shrewd Jia Xu not use it.
Dong Shouye shook his head and said, "Although this token is on the general, it can't be used lightly. For this gold medal, Dong Shouye will not use it unless it is absolutely necessary, Jia Xu heard Dong Shouye's words, and he also began to be a little anxious, and immediately said: "Childe, don't worry, we will never use this token to do anything excessive, just let the surrounding people cooperate with us." ”
Dong Shouye listened to it and said, "That's fine." Seeing that Jia Xu didn't have to rely entirely on the token in his hand, Dong Shouye couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
This token is both a good thing and a bad thing for Dong Shouye. The advantage is that it can enhance Dong Shouye's strength, so that he can defeat his opponent more certainly. The disadvantage is that it will make Dong Shouye dependent on his father and limit Dong Shouye's growth.
Now Dong Zhuo is old, and he is troubled by the affairs of the imperial court, but he doesn't have much time to cultivate Dong Shouye, and Dong Zhuo hopes that Dong Shouye can grow up as much as possible, do his best to be independent, and take charge of the Xiliang Army in the future, so what he wants to see is that Dong Shouye can make some remarkable achievements with his own ability, rather than using his father's strong strength to crush his opponents. Moreover, even if Dong Shouye gathered a large number of soldiers and horses with the token, and the battlefield was ever-changing, Dong Shouye was not 100% sure of defeating Sun Jian.
Therefore, it is best not to use the token in Dong Shouye's hand. As a killer feature, as a hole card at a critical moment, is Dong Shouye's understanding of the role of tokens.
Jia Xu asked again: "I don't know who kind of people can be mobilized with this token?" ”
Dong Shouye replied: "The surrounding people and horses can be mobilized, specifically the headquarters of General Zhu Jun in Luoyang City, the headquarters of General Xu Rong of the Garrison Yan Division, and the headquarters of General Lu Bu in the passes on the north side of Luoyang such as Xiaopingjin and Mengjin (this point will feel that there is a conflict with the description above, so be patient for the time being, there will be explanations in the later chapters, please read below), General Dong Yue of the Tunbing Mianchi, General Niu Fu of the Tunbing Hedong Anyi, and General Hu Zhen of the Tunbing Yangcheng. However, the transfer must be cautious, and it is not allowed to transfer without authorization unless it is a last resort, especially General Niu Fu in Hedong and General Dong Yue in Michi. ”
As soon as Jia Xu and Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Hua Xiong, and Dian Wei heard it, I will go, this Prime Minister Dong really trusts his precious son, this token can almost mobilize all the troops in the east of Chang'an except for General Duan Xuan, and all the troops add up, there are almost hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, which is almost half of the total strength of the Xiliang Army. It's really terrible, no wonder you didn't want to take out the token before?
Dong Shouye saw everyone's surprised expressions, and immediately said with a straight face: "This is a secret among our army's secrets, and no one is allowed to leak half a sentence, and those who violate the military law will be dealt with." ”
However, at this time, there were six people in the big tent, Dong Shouye and Jia Xu, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Hua Xiong, and Dian Wei, and the other subordinates were all left outside the tent, and the people outside the tent couldn't hear what was being talked about inside the tent.
These people can be said to be Dong Shouye's henchmen, and being able to participate in such a confidential event today is enough to show Dong Shouye's trust in them. Of course, these people will not do anything to leak secrets.
The two armies fought, and the slightest negligence was the loss of their lives.
Jia Xu, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Hua Xiong, and Dian Wei all had a great increase in confidence when they heard the news, and immediately said in unison: "Obey the order, we will never leak half a sentence." ”
Then, Jia Xu said again: "Childe, since I have this token in my hand, then I will feel a lot more at ease." Besides, we are not completely passive towards Sun Jian, and we also have the strength to fight, but the risk is relatively large. At the moment, there is no need to mobilize too many soldiers and horses, as long as other soldiers and horses make a certain gesture and cooperate with our actions. ”
Dong Shouye heard Jia Xu say that he would not let himself use the token, so he breathed a sigh of relief and felt a lot more relieved, so he said loudly: "This is very good, I don't know if the military advisor will be safe?" ”
