Chapter 116: Xun Shuang dies
At this point, Xun Yu sighed and said: "If it is really Jia Xu's plan, Jia Xu can really be said to be a person who 'knows people's hearts'!" He sighed again, "Xi Taishi Gongyun: 'The world is bustling, all for profit, and the world is bustling, all for profit'." Yuan Benchu, Yuan Highway, Han Jizhou, Liu Jingzhou, and Sujube Zhugong are all heroes in the sea, and heroes from all over the world are also, but they all ignore justice because of selfish interests, resulting in infighting, no time to ask for Dong, cherish the sea?
Dong Zhuo walked alone in the court and controlled the Han family, which indeed aroused the public indignation of the people in the world, but this "public indignation", in the final analysis, was not for the safety of the Han family, but for the political interests of the scholar class itself.
If the scholars are selfless, all for justice, for the Han family, all of them are selfless, forgetting death, then Han Fu will cooperate closely with Yuan Shao, Liu Biao will not regard Yuan Shu as a disaster in Jingzhou, and if the sour jujube coalition army, he will not sit back and watch Cao Cao, Zhang Miao, and Bao Xin send troops alone and do not care, if Jizhou, Jingzhou, Yuzhou, and Yanzhou can really be twisted into a rope, advance in all directions, and attack Luoyang together, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses are in the pass, and Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses are fine, and it is definitely difficult to resist.
It's just a pity that it is obviously impossible to let Er Yuan, Han Fu, Liu Biao and others put down their selfish interests and jointly promote righteousness. Taking a step back, Cao Cao, Zhang Miao, and Bao Xinken took the initiative to send troops, which can be regarded as a move of "loyalty to the Han family", but at the same time, it can also be seen as a move of "seeking fame" by them.
The same is true of Wen Chou and Sun Jian. It's just that the difference is that some people are looking for the present, the soldiers are strong, and the territory is the population. Some people want the future and fame in the world.
After listening to Xun Yu's praise, Wen Chou's face was already thick, but he was not ashamed, smiled slightly, and said: "Today, Liu Jing has entered Yicheng. Fighting for Jingzhou with Yuan Highway is, in my opinion, a good thing. ”
Guo Jia was puzzled and asked, "What did the lord say?" ”
Wen Chouyan said: "Obviously, with Liu Jingsheng in Jingzhou, Yuan Highway must be even more unintentional to attack Dong, which seems to be a bad thing." But Yuan Highway didn't have much intention of attacking Dong, so no matter whether Liu Jingsheng went to Jingzhou or not, this actually had no impact on our efforts to discuss Dong. ”
Guo Jia still said suspiciously: "That's true. But this has no effect at best. What is the word 'good thing'? ”
Wen Chou smiled: "Fengxiao, let me ask you, if you are a soldier of the Dong Army, what would you think after hearing that 'Liu Jingsheng entered Yicheng and Yuan Shu Jingzhou'?" ”
Guo Jia suddenly realized and said: "I must think: Yuan Shu has been a soldier all the way, and there is no need to worry about it from now on!" ”
Wen Chou said: "Exactly. First, the sour jujube soldiers dispersed, and then Wang Kuang was defeated. Now it is Liu Jingsheng and Yuan Highway fighting for Jingzhou, and Dong Shulu is fighting for soldiers and horses. Now it can be said that it has been broken into two and a half, and the only survivors are Yuan Benchu and my Yingchuan. Dong Jun already had the intention of being war-weary, but now the pressure has been greatly reduced,...... Fengxiao, you say, what will happen to Dong Jun next? ”
Guo Jia clapped his hands and laughed. said: "If there is little external pressure, the internal will be slack, and Dong Jun is already tired of war,...... Congratulations to the lord, the day of sending troops to destroy Dong. It's not far off! ”
Wen Chou smiled: "So I said that Liu Jingsheng and Yuan Highway fought for Jingzhou, but it can also be regarded as a good thing." ”
Speaking of this, Wen Chou beckoned to Yan Liang and Zhao Yun who were sitting under the tent and asked, "How are the soldiers of each battalion?" ”
The two got up and bowed, and Yan Liang replied: "Practice day and night, and the soldiers are sharp." ”
Zhao Yun replied: "Eat all day long, think about war day and night." ”
Wen Chou asked again: "Can the military spirit and morale be used?" ”
Zhao Yun replied: "Infantry and cavalry battalions, the army is stable and morale is high!" ”
Wen Chou said loudly: "The soldiers in the army, it is not good to only close the camp for drills, the weather is very good in the past two days, and tomorrow you and the two of you can choose the soldiers out of the camp and fight against the soldiers under Sun Hou's account, and conduct actual combat drills." ”
Zhao Yun and Yan Liang responded: "No." ”
Xun Yu said: "Why don't you invite Sun Hou to pass on the county, and invite the scholars and the head of the Qian" to watch it together?" ”
Wen Chou suddenly said happily: "If Wen is very good at this discussion, then be so!" I will go to Sun Hou and discuss this matter with him. ”
In the foreseeable future, for a long period of time, Yingchuan will be the rear of Wen Chou and Sun Jian to fight against Dong, Dong Zhuo has lost two Yuan in a row, and the strength of the soldiers and horses is known to the world, among the scholars and people of Yingchuan County, there are actually many people who are afraid of Dong Zhuo and do not support Wen Chou and Sun Jian, just because Wen and Sun are in the country, and Sun Jian has become Yingchuan Taishou again, and they dare not object. Therefore, at this time, inviting some scholars and ordinary people to watch the "drill and actual combat" let them know how capable Wen and Sun's subordinates are, through this, they can probably change the concept of some people, so as to get the support of more people, which will be conducive to the future of the Dong Dynasty.
Wen Chou saw Sun Jian, and when he talked about these two things, Sun Jian had no reason to disagree.
The two quickly agreed: Tomorrow each will send 5,000 men and horses to conduct an actual combat drill in the open field outside Yangzhai County. At the same time, Sun Jian immediately sent a message to the county, welcoming the people of the county to come and see, and specially sent people to invite some scholars from Yang Zhai and neighboring counties to watch the battle.
Early the next morning, Wen Chou finished dressing up and was about to leave the account, but a person hurriedly ran over, and when he saw Wen Chou, he said: "Ming Gong, Chang'an letter comes!" ”
The so-called letter from Chang'an is the news of Sikong Xun Shuang's death, which is a big blow to Wen Chou, of course, he is also prepared enough, after all, in his impression, Xun Shuang died during the discussion of Dong.
Although Wen Chou knew, but Xun Yu, Xun Yan, Guo Jia, Zhou Lu and other Yingchuan scholars under his account did not have such a preparation, which made them depressed for a while, Xun Yu, Xun Yan and other Xun clan people, even more tears, such a scheduled military training must not be carried out.
At the same time, there is another problem in front of Wen Chou, that is, the problem of Xun Shuang's body, which is far away in Chang'an, so if his coffin wants to reach Yingchuan Township, it must get Dong Zhuo's approval! But now that Dong Zhuo is fighting with the Yingchuan forces led by Wen Chou and Sun Jian, can he agree to Xun Shuang's coffin returning to Yingchuan? It's obviously impossible.
Although he already knew the result, Wen Chou still made some efforts for various reasons, and sent letters to a group of figures, including Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao, Jia Xu, Wang Yun, etc., hoping that Xun Shuang's coffin could arrive in Yingchuan, and even had the idea of raising troops to raid the pass, but in the end he was persuaded by everyone, but the result was in vain.
