191 Formed an alliance with Gongsun Zhan
Lu Bu was not surprised by what Gongsun Yue said, but of course he was interested in listening to Gongsun Zhan's proposal.
Between Jizhou and Jizhou, due to the geographical location, it is impossible for Yuan Shao not to take strict precautions after obtaining Jizhou, and even use troops to attack Jizhou.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for Yuan Shao to sleep peacefully in Jizhou.
This truth, Lu Bu can see it, Gongsun Chan can see it, Yuan Shao has many strategists, and it is impossible not to see it, at this time he didn't do it, it was just because he had just gotten Jizhou, and he was going to fight with Gongsun Zan again, and he hadn't taken care of it yet.
And Jia Xu, Fang Cai's concern is not that he does not agree with Lu Bu's opinion, but he just feels that the focus of the current state army is in Chang'an, and in Hedong, it is also a little bit that he can't take care of Jizhou for a while.
The so-called Gongsun Zhan's proposal is actually very simple.
The first is Daijun, who is currently actually controlled by Lu Bu, and it is of course impossible for Lu Bu to spit out the fat that has been swallowed in his mouth, so Gongsun Chan simply waved his hand and took Daijun as one of the conditions for him to thank Lu Bu for forming an alliance and sending troops.
And the meaning behind this is to say, if you form an alliance with me to fight against Yuan Shao, you are my ally, and Daijun will belong to you, otherwise, you will be my enemy, maybe one day, when Yuan Shao sends troops to attack you, I will send troops to subdue Daijun.
The second is to agree that Jizhou will be divided equally with Lu Bu, and Changshan, Julu, Zhao, and Wei counties next to Taihang Mountain will belong to Lu Bu, and the other Zhongshan countries, Hejian countries, Anping countries, Qinghe countries and Bohai counties will belong to Gongsun Zhan.
These two so-called conditions, in fact, do not require Gongsun Chan to pay anything, Daijun was originally taken by Lu Bu from Xianbei Fu Luo Han, and the equal division of Jizhou is just a painting haode pie, as for the rest, Gongsun Chan can get it. Except for the salt and iron of Yuyang, there is really nothing else.
War horses, Bingzhou is not lost to Youzhou at all, and after Lu Bu defeated Xianbei Budugen and Fu Luohan one after another, there is no shortage of vast pastures outside Yanmen Pass.
As soon as these conditions were finished, Lu Bu also knew that there were only so many things that Gongsun Chan could take, no matter how much he knocked on the bamboo. He still couldn't take it out.
When he groaned for a moment, he said loudly, "Brother Bogui's move shows his sincerity, okay." That's it, though. I also have one condition. ”
Gongsun Yue is overjoyed. Hurriedly bowed respectfully and asked, "Envoy, please speak." ”
"Don't make a big deal about the alliance, lest Yuan Shao have a defense, and when I surprise the troops out of Jizhou, the world will know about it at that time."
With this condition, Gongsun Yue didn't need to ask his brother Gongsun Chan for instructions at all. I happily agreed on the spot.
Since coming to this life, this is the first time that Lu Bu has seen the diplomacy of this period, and before, even Li Su was ordered by Dong Zhuo to persuade him and so on. It can only be regarded as an internal room, not a diplomacy.
And the reason why they can reach an agreement in just a few words like this is because Lu Bu and Gongsun Zan have the same interests for Yuan Shao and the entire Jizhou.
Gongsun Zhan is entrenched in Youzhou, and if he doesn't open the passage of Jizhou, he can't reach out to the Central Plains at all, and he will always be just a secession warlord in a corner of peace; And Lu Bu relied on his memory, and was wary of Yuan Shao's entrenchment in Jizhou early, and when he couldn't prevent him from obtaining Jizhou, he could only choose to strike first to prevent Yuan Shao from defeating Gongsun Zhan, and try to delay Yuan Shao's time in Jizhou.
It's just that Lu Bu now needs an opportunity to send troops to Jizhou, otherwise, he can only think of another way.
Sending Gongsun Yue away, Lu Bu asked Gao Shun, Hua Xiong and Wang Fang to summon them, and the six of them were in Lu Bu's inner study to discuss the matter.
Before meeting Gongsun Yue, Lu Bu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, that is, he thought that he could use the Black Mountain thief Zhang Yan to achieve a surprise attack on Jizhou.
One of the advantages of this is that the Bingzhou army can be hidden in the Black Mountain thieves, so as to avoid the righteous excuse of sending troops, and actually give Yuan Shao a hard knife.
Hua Xiong and Wang Fang led their troops north to serve, and now they are reorganizing the army according to the practice of Lu Bu's army, that is, they have formed their own elite guards and sharp soldiers, and the rest are incorporated into the garrison.
According to the practice of Lu Bu in the center, the generals, according to their respective status, have a certain number of personal guards, for example, now, Lu Bu is 300 people, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Hao Meng, Han Hao, Cao Xing, Wei Xu, Song Xian and Hou Cheng, all 200 people.
The equipment and treatment of these guards are the most haode, and they are all selected by the generals themselves, to put it bluntly, this is a private army of the generals themselves, and the purpose is of course to escort.
As for the other battalions of soldiers and horses, the field army is distinguished by the station, and the garrison is distinguished by the city where it is stationed, and belongs to the commander of the general in charge of the local area.
This set-up, as well as the separation of the military and political forces of each county, is actually just Lu Bu's order to prevent the appearance of generals under his command to support the army and even rebel in the future.
Of course, this setting has been found by everyone to have a lot of advantages, that is, when adjusting the area and direction of the commanders and generals, a paper order will only involve the generals and their personal guards, which is convenient and fast, and does not involve the movement of the entire battalion, which can reduce unnecessary losses on the road.
For example, this time, Lu Bu's troops went out of Yanmen Pass, and Cao Xing was recruited to command the scout camp, and Zhang Liao was recruited to command the light cavalry, so Cao He and Zhang Liao each led their own guards, set off from Hedong and Shangdang respectively, and rushed to Yanmen Pass urgently, and the soldiers and horses needed were drawn from the garrison in Taiyuan County.
Hua Xiong and Wang Fangxin had only recently joined, and of course they were following the local customs, and they gladly accepted this.
After Lu Bu finished his thoughts, Jia Xu nodded, his face was helpless, and said: "Since the lord insists on making a move on Yuan Shao, with the help of Zhang Yan of Montenegro, it is indeed a good move, in this way, our army is still on the defensive outside the Yanmen Pass, digesting the gains, in Hedong, waiting for the opportunity to Chang'an, so that we can wait for the opportunity to move, in Jizhou, and do not raise troops in a big way." Don't hope to defeat Yuan Shao in one fell swoop, just drag him back. ”
What Lu Bu said was only a strategy for the use of troops in one direction of Jizhou, and Jia Xu elevated it to the overall strategy of the entire Bingzhou army to use troops abroad, so that even Huaxiong and Wang Fang could hear it clearly.
As a result, the overall focus of the Bingzhou Army's use of troops has shifted from outside the Yanmen Pass at the beginning of the year to Hedong. As for Jizhou, it was just a small-scale harassing attack.
Lu Bu nodded and said to everyone: "Well, Mr. summed it up and sent troops to Jizhou." Helping Gongsun Zhan, I'm really worried that Gongsun Chan is in front of Yuan Shao. It won't last long. In this way, Yuan Shao lost the pressure from Youzhou, Qingzhou Kong Rong, Yanzhou Liu Dai, and Hanoi Zhang Yang did not pose any threat to it, and they were bound to set their sights on Bingzhou, at that time. It is very difficult for us to develop and consolidate the state well and lay a solid foundation. ”
"The lord is far-sighted!" Jia Xu praised half exaggerated and half serious, "That's it." It is necessary to readjust the generals. ”
Lu Bu pondered for a moment and asked, "What is your opinion?" ”
Jia Xu replied: "Xu Huang is originally from Hedong, and it is only fitting for him to sit in Hedong and wait for the opportunity to come out; Zhang Liao came from Yanmen, and he coordinated the military inside and outside Yanmen Pass; As for the Black Mountain Thieves, here......"
Speaking of which, Jia Xu's eyes are looking at Lu Bu, and the meaning cannot be clearer, if you want to subdue the black mountain thief Zhang Yan, of course, it is more appropriate for Lu Bu to go out in person.
Lu Buhaha smiled, nodded and praised: "What Mr. saw, coincided with me, Zhang Liao and Cao Xing stayed in Yanmen, Xu Huang was transferred to Hedong, Hao Meng assisted, Xu Huang attacked, Hao Meng defended, Xu Shu accompanied the army to staff the military, Gao Shun is still in Taiyuan, Wang Fang is stationed in Shangdang, as for the Black Mountain thieves, and even Jizhou, there are me, Huaxiong, Song Xian, it is enough!" ”
The people mentioned, plus Han Hao who was stationed in Gaodu, Wei Xu who was in charge of the workshop, Hou Cheng who was in charge of Shangjia, and Song Xian, the commander of Lu Bu's personal guards, were all the generals available to him.
Gao Shun, Hua Xiong, Wang Fang, Song Xian, stepped forward and loudly promised to receive the order, among which Hua Xiong was even more excited.
As a military general, of course, he would not want to just stick to one place and be able to fight everywhere, which is the best way to grab military merits.
After discussing some details, this matter was finalized, at this time, Hua Xiong and Wang Fang saw a major feature of the Bingzhou army, that is, when the general was transferred, because he only brought personal guards, and they were equipped with war horses, so the speed was very fast.
For example, Xu Huang was stationed at Yanmen Pass at this time, and he only needed to hand over the defense of Yanmen Pass and Yanmen County with Zhang Liao and Cao Xing, and then set off with his own soldiers and rushed to Hedong via Taiyuan.
And if the general is mobilized at the same time, there is also the movement of the army, and this time will have to be multiplied.
At this time, it is less than a month before the end of the year, and the time to send troops should be in the beginning of spring in the next year, so that there will be nearly two months of work to make sufficient preparations.
After finishing these things, Lu Bu sent Jia Xu and the others away, and looked at the goose feathers and snow that were fluttering in the sky, and he was idle for a while.
At this time, it was late afternoon, and after being stunned for a moment, his heart moved, and he was ready to go to the Empress Dowager He to have a look.
Unexpectedly, before entering the courtyard gate, through the snow curtain, he heard the laughter from inside, daring to love At this time, everyone was nested in the house, and no one came out, only Lu Bu, who was born to be busy, was still thinking about how to calculate others in this snowy season, so as not to be calculated by others in the future.
"Bump!"
As soon as he entered the door, Lu Bu heard the lazy and soft voice of the Empress Dowager He, and then an exclamation sounded, and a voice asked in disbelief: "This, this ,......"
Lu Bu was happy when he saw it, Yan was worried there, but his face was excited, and he wanted to push down the cards in front of him with both hands, but he didn't dare to do so.
"Huh!"
Lu Bu shouted, rushed to Yan's side, knocked down the card, and then hahadaxiao.
In this place, he can come in by himself without informing, Mu Shun, who is serving outside, and a few little eunuchs have already been instructed by the Empress Dowager He, so when they see Lu Bu, they all bow down to greet him.
Playing mahjong with the Empress Dowager He, it was still Yan's, Qin'er, and Hongnong Wang Liu Bian, seeing that Yan's was indeed a winning card, Empress Dowager He smiled and sighed: "Alas, I'm not lucky today, and I haven't opened my beard yet." ”
After the Empress Dowager He finished speaking, she looked at Lu Bu, first smiled, and then asked: "Oh, you busy man, you just married a bride today, why do you still have time to hang here." (To be continued......)
