Chapter 332: The Situation in Hanoi
In order to win the support of the ministers of the DPRK and China, Guan Yu gained more approval, and also gave positions to some of the original ministers, including Zhu Jun, the general of the right middle lang, who was crowned the Taiwei this time, ranking among the three dukes, Taiwei is one of the three dukes in charge of the military power, but because there is Guan Yu, the great Sima and the general who protects the country, and the military generals below also have a specific division of labor, so he is obviously a role and has no real power, just like Yang Biao before, it is just a fictitious thing. However, with this role, there is still a lot of weight to speak in the court, and the reputation is a lot easier to say, which is also Zhu Jun's dream for many years, this time Guan Yu fulfilled his dream, Zhu Jun naturally wants to thank Guan Yu for his support.
As for Taichang Qing, there is no doubt that he will be the minister according to his work, and he will be given a position, which will be conducive to the convenience of his future work, and he will also carry out his work better, and Cai Yong will be crowned as a Guanglu doctor, and this position is used to improve the treatment and level, and there is no real power, Cai Yong is a talent, Guan Yu is a great weight to him, and as for Cui Lie's arrangement of him as a Fengche lieutenant, it is also because this position is somewhat similar and overlapping with his original position, and this time it is merged into one to reduce the increase in expenses due to the setting of the position. The arrangement and appointment of each person have Guan Yu's profound considerations, not groundless, these people have one thing in common, that is, they basically support and support themselves, and Guan Yu has always trusted them, so that Guan Yu is more at ease when they come to power, of course, these people are also talented people, not wine bags and rice bags, and there is no problem in terms of style, so that once some people enrich the entire imperial court, it will naturally be conducive to reform and promote the development of all aspects of work, and it is also convenient for Guan Yu to develop his ambitions and stabilize Guan Yu's foundation.
If Guan Yu's blood exchange is successful this time, Guan Yu will take a big step forward, and its effect will be no less than winning a few cities. Luoyang, the imperial court, is in control for itself, and he can promote his will to the national strategy, so that he can realize his plan, so that he has a solid foundation for dominating the world, and he can boldly rest assured that he is outside without worrying about the rear, and implements this decision. Guan Yu felt relieved and relieved, Guan Yu was brewing in the house to meet the saint in the future, but at this moment, he heard a report from his subordinates that Ma Teng had something important to ask to see, Guan Yu heard it and said: "Please!" β
After a while, Kung Fu Ma Teng came, and Guan Yu saw this and said, "Master Ma, congratulations!" I wonder if this position of Jinwu and Shaoqing of Dali Temple can be satisfied? β
Ma Teng nodded after hearing this and said, "Yun Chang! You are too elevating the old man, I can't afford to arrange such an important position for me! β
"Master Ma is serious, I think you are a little condescending to be qualified for this position! But it doesn't matter, let's take our time, you also have to understand my distress, you said that the position is so little, but there are so many people. Everyone wants a better position, but there are more wolves and less meat! Besides, the country's financial burden is indeed very difficult now, unless the positions that can be set up are necessary or they are all picked by one person, otherwise there is no part-time job, there is really no way, and there is really no way, and when Ma Daren first came to the ramp, it will make too much trouble all of a sudden, I am afraid that the ministers of the DPRK and China will not accept it, and I hope that Ma Daren will forgive me! Guan Yu explained to Ma Teng.
After hearing this, Ma Teng nodded frequently and said, "Yun Chang! I can understand this, but it is indeed not easy. But I still have something to offer! I also hope that Yun Chang can be more accommodating! β
"It's okay to say it's okay, since Master Ma has brought it up. I will do my best if I can do it! Guan Yu said.
Ma Teng said a little embarrassedly: "You see that so many people have knighthoods, you see that there are my beloved sons and generals who come with me, you say that I have a knighthood, and these two people can't just ignore it, after all, they are following me, but this matter has to trouble you!" β
After Ma Teng finished speaking, Guan Yu smiled and said, "Master Ma! As a father and master, you are indeed doing the right thing. It's really commendable to think about your subordinates, you see that you have surrendered to me, I naturally can't be lazy, these two people are young and armed with force, how can such talents have no place to play? Isn't that condescending? Even if Master Ma doesn't say it, I Guan Yu has to take care of it! But we don't need to talk about this matter at this level. The list of appointments we proposed this time is to be placed on the court for study, that is, my affairs must also be put on the table, in terms of government affairs, now my right to speak can only be suggestions, but in the army it is different, I still have this right, you see that the son and the general are both in the army, this I can carry in the future, as long as the two of them behave well, I Guan Yu will never treat his brothers badly, this Lord Ma can rest assured, you can count what the generals who follow me are doing now, In this way, I will count it for you: Zhang Liao followed me to the east and the west to fight for many military exploits, and now he is the general of Zhenxi (Zheng Erpin); Gao Shun is also my right-hand man, and now he is General Anxi (Zheng Sanpin); Wen Ping is also my confidant and beloved general, and now he is about to be promoted to the captain of the division (Zheng Erpin), Zhou Cang is now the Governor of the Navy (Zheng Sanpin), Li Yan is now the general of Zhechong (deputy Sanpin), Xu Huang is the captain of Yue Cai (deputy Sanpin) You can count which one has not been treated badly, you see that Ling Gongzi and Ai Jiang are both people with military force, and their abilities are still above many people, and the future is promising! β
Guan Yu said while counting, Ma Teng's eyes straightened when he heard it, indeed! In fact, Ma Teng is becoming more and more soberly aware that he is about to enter the age of not being confused, a person of such age, he no longer wants to be mixed in the army, there is no interest and there will not be much future, serving in the army is somewhat difficult for people of his age, so he dreams of being able to mix into the court and mix an official and a half-job to retire for a long time, but so many years of life as a rogue has made him unable to fulfill his wish, since he met Guan Yu, After Guan Yu's pointing, Ma Teng's heart suddenly lived, and he could follow Guan Yu's real power into Beijing, and he could be justified at once, which he couldn't ask for, so he decisively surrendered and followed Guan Yu back to Luoyang.
Guan Yu did not disappoint him, and gave him a real position in charge of judicial work, this position is more satisfying for Ma Teng, after all, he is also a big man, and his identity is correct, Ma Teng is still relatively satisfied, but as a father and master. He can't help but find a way out for his son and Ai Jiang, there are no two on the list this time, Ma Teng can't help but be a little anxious, these two people are still very young and can't just be buried, so Ma Teng dared to come to Guan Yu to state the reason, and that's it. But my son is still young! There's still a future! As a father, he has to earn a pocket for him, and drag him out hard, but as a father's wish, now he still speaks a little hard, after all, he has just surrendered, Guan Yu still has to buy his account, if he really sends someone to the fence in the future, how can he Ma Teng be embarrassed to say this kind of thing?
However, Guan Yu's words made him listen to it, both seeing hope and feeling a little confused, Guan Yu described him very beautifully, but what kind of position did Guan Yu give his son, Guan Yu did not spit out. But when it comes to this, Ma Teng is not embarrassed to ask again, this time I came to see Guan Yu Ma Teng also closed this old face, but after all, now the master is Guan Yu, whether Guan Yu can buy it or not is not something he can control, Ma Teng was thinking, at this time Guan Yu comforted: "Master Ma, I Guan Yu is principled in doing things, and I have always been meritocracy." As long as you have talent, as long as you are talented, I will never treat you badly, I see this in my eyes. I know what you have done and what kind of achievements you have achieved, and I think about the things of Ling Gongzi and Aijiang, so you can rest assured! β
"Just have your words! I will tell them to do their best and be loyal to you! Marten promised.
Guan Yu nodded and then asked, "Eh?" By the way, Master Ma, as soon as you come, I think of one thing, how is Han Sui's side? I've been a little busy lately, and I've been delayed! β
Ma Teng immediately reported: "This matter is also one of the purposes of my trip, and according to your instructions, I immediately sent a letter to Han Sui. He was a little hesitant at first, and then I went to Hongnong in person, where I met Han Sui, but there was no close contact, but I met in the other city and exchanged a few words, Han Sui did not withdraw but because of my appearance, I did not move there. Later, as soon as the situation in the east improved, he withdrew one after another! Now it's back and state! β
Guan Yu smiled with satisfaction after hearing this: "It seems that your friendship is still working!" This is really not in vain! β
Ma Teng sighed after hearing this and said, "It's a pity that General Zhang Yang was unfortunately killed!" β
When Guan Yu heard this, it was like a slap in the face! His head buzzed, and he asked in horror, "What the hell is going on?" β
Ma Teng had no choice but to tell Guan Yu the ins and outs of the matter
It turned out that Han Sui decided to attack Luoyang from the north after receiving Cao Cao's letter last time, Han Sui immediately raised an army of 50,000 to invade Hanoi, the situation was extremely urgent, at this time Guan Yu was arranging the Tiger Prison Pass, no time to go north Gu had to order Zhang Yang to lead 50,000 troops out of Hongnong to Hanoi to reject Han Sui, Zhang Yang led 50,000 troops to Cheng Guan Yu last time, was arranged by Guan Yu in Hongnong in case of accidents, and Hanoi for the general Yang Chou refused to accept, compared to Han Sui's army in Hanoi, Yang Chou's army and horses were only 20,000 people, Han Sui in the ministry Li Hu, horse play, Liang Xing, and the candidate escorts came to Hanoi with a fierce slaughter.
As a barrier to the north of Luoyang, the geographical location of Hanoi is also very dangerous, Zhang Yang Chou and Zheng Gu are guarding here, in the face of Han Sui's abnormal offensive, the two panicked all of a sudden, and heard that Luoyang is also in danger, the two are even more confused, Han Sui's army forward arrived in Hanoi, the army is like a broken bamboo soldier under the city of Hanoi, Yang Chou did not dare to fight in the face of such a situation, and chose to stick to resist Han Sui, Han Sui learned that Hanoi had no general to guard the order to attack Hanoi urgently, Yang Chou held the city, and the two sides launched several fierce battles, Han Sui finally couldn't take Hanoi, but Yang Chou suffered heavy losses, Hanoi City was in danger, Yang Chou saw that Han Sui was attacking very fiercely, Hanoi City was in danger, and he couldn't help but be a little shaken, at this time Han Sui threw an olive branch to Yang Chou, Han Sui Enwei and might, through the analysis of the current grim situation, persuaded Yang Chou to surrender.
Yang Chou followed Zhang Yang, but in the face of such a crisis and heard that Luoyang was also under siege, the arrival of Han Sui's letter made his heart come alive all of a sudden, and Han Sui also declared that Yang Chou was a high-ranking official, and this Yang Chou was even more excited! He gritted his teeth: As the saying goes, those who know the times are handsome! Yang Chou immediately wrote a reply to Han Sui to declare that he was willing to surrender, just when Yang Chou had just sent a reply, Zhang Yang and 30,000 horses had rushed to Hanoi to solve the urgent need, like sending charcoal in the snow! The morale of the entire Hanoi was boosted, but at this time, Yang Chou already had a rebellious heart, and when he saw Zhang Yang coming to Hanoi, Yang Chou had an idea and thought about it.
Yang Chou pondered, now that the master Zhang Yang has arrived, once the matter of his surrender is revealed, it will be a catastrophe! Can Zhang Yang spare him? No way! I have only one way to die. Since ancient times, it is taboo to defect to the enemy, there is no good end, since he has decided to defect, there is no turning back arrow from the bow, he Yang Chou can only go to the dark one way, Yang Chou made up his mind to come to Zhang Yang's residence that night. Falsely claiming to report the military situation, Zhang Yang only said that the military situation was urgent and did not have any precautions, Yang Chou came to Zhang Yang's close body, and took this opportunity to suddenly pull out his saber and grab it to Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang had no time to defend and was stabbed in the heart by Yang Chou, and died immediately.
Yang Chou killed the main general Zhang Yang, and then he was about to launch an army coup d'Γ©tat and prepare to surrender to Han Sui, at this time, Zhang Yang heard that Yang Chou had killed his master Zhang Yang and personally raised soldiers to arrest Yang Chou. Yang Chou was not to be outdone, the two sides encountered in the city of Hanoi and immediately moved, Zheng Gu personally brought weapons to fight Yang Chou's two horses, the two immediately started, the battle has more than 20 together, regardless of victory or defeat, Zheng Gu saw that it was difficult to win, so he took a bow and arrows to shoot arrows at Yang Chou, Yang Chou was furious when he saw this: "The solid erector has to release the arrow." As he spoke, he brandished his weapon to take it down! β
He aimed an arrow at Yang Chou and shot it right in Yang Chou's heart, but he heard an "ah". Yang Chou fell to the ground in response to the string, although Yang Chou was hit by an arrow, he still had breath, and was about to get up from the ground, at this time, Zheng Gu had already rushed over, and a shot stabbed Yang Chou, Yang Chou's eyes glared, and the corners of his mouth suddenly spit out a stream of blood. Then he fell to the ground and died! Su Gu killed Yang Chou to quell the rebellion, and the news had already reached Han Sui outside the city, and Han Sui was furious when he heard it, and immediately sent troops to attack Hanoi
Yang Chou killed Zhang Yang. And Zheng Gu killed Yang Chou again, and now there is only one general left in Hanoi, and Ma Teng's army heard that Yang Chou was killed and couldn't wait to attack the city, the situation became urgent again, at this time Ma Teng arrived in Hanoi in time, and presented a letter to Han Sui at the moment, Han Sui heard that Ma Teng came to Hanoi, he was very surprised, Ma Teng explained the reason to Han Sui and persuaded Han Sui to also surrender to Guan Yu, Han Sui thought alone: I really never thought of it! Guan Yu swept Yongzhou and Xiliang in less than half a year, and his sworn brother Ma Teng also surrendered his gun, how powerful is Ma Teng? once occupied Xiliang and approached Sanfu for a time, but such a good situation finally failed, which shows that Guan Yu is a good kid.
Bai Zizi's brother Ma Teng took over Hanoi, how could Han Sui, as a sworn brother, be embarrassed to attack each other, wouldn't that be laughed at by the people of the world? Won't he be scolded as an unkind and unrighteous person, and how will he mix it up in the future? Although they can't attack each other, Han Sui doesn't plan to defect to Guan Yu, what is better than being a slave and being a king? He Han Sui has been serving as a feudal official outside for so many years, he has always been used to doing his own thing, and he has never lived the days of sending people under the fence, don't do it like this, now he is covering the sky with one hand in Bingzhou, and he is living well, what is the good thing about defecting to Guan Yu? What can he mix with there? You have to be sent by him to obey him, and you have to surrender the power of the army, so why bother? Ma Teng, if it weren't for the defeat, would he have defected to Guan Yu? I don't believe it!
Ma Teng persuaded Han Sui, Han Sui not only did not vote but persuaded Ma Teng to come, Han Sui said Ma Teng said: You and my brother agreed to never rebel, and now they are close to the year of not being confused, so many years in the wind and rain to crawl and roll, you and I brothers are very affectionate, I don't want to meet here today, my brother persuaded me to defect to Guan Yu to serve the court together, saying that this is the way out for you and my brother, but I want to send people under the fence which is more comfortable as the king, brother was forced by the situation to surrender to Guan Yu, and now I am a brother and a man of the state, Come to conquer Guan Yu is to prepare for the brother a snow shame, brother if wise when open the door of Hanoi to welcome the brother into the city, you and my brother will merge a will fight a family to wave the south then Luoyang is just around the corner, the current Guan Yu is deeply surrounded by Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Yuan Shu's army, the Tiger Prison Pass has been lost, Bishui Pass has also belonged to Yuan Shao, two important passes have been lost, Luoyang is just a naked empty city, now embattled, if we take Hanoi, we can face Guan Yu from the north to form an encirclement, If such a situation is caused, Guan Yu will be unable to continue even if he has three heads and six arms, and he hopes that his brother will open a convenient door to welcome me into the city! The future is certain!
Originally, Ma Teng wanted to persuade Han Sui to surrender, but he was mainly opposed by Han Sui, but what Han Sui said in the letter is indeed a little exciting, if Guan Yu really collapses, then it is a wise choice to sacrifice Hanoi, and he can't watch Luoyang be buried in the hands of others, but if Guan Yu survives, this idea is to kill himself, he has now surrendered, and followed Guan Yu to Luoyang, he immediately became a court official, and his identity can be proven soon, this is what Ma Teng has been looking forward to for a long time, and he has been longing for many years, If you go to follow Han Sui like this, what future can he have, at most he can get a domain entrenched, if he wants to occupy Luoyang, he basically can't do it, as a loyal minister, he still wants to be closer to the Son of Heaven.
