Chapter 119: The Rebellion and the Separation

When the generals left one after another, the first thing Wang Xu did was to ask Xu Shu and Zhou Zhi to take him back to his residence in the backyard of the county government.

Let Han Meng temporarily guard the door of this small courtyard, then walked into his room quickly, and after sitting down next to the table, he didn't have time to say goodbye to Xu Shuyi, Wang Xu had already asked anxiously: "What's going on?" Why are the generals of this army all scraps? ”

After leaving the public place, Zhou Zhi also regained his former hippie smile, and when he saw Wang Xu asking, he immediately replied with a smile: "Boss, I'm surprised!" Hehe, in fact, I was startled at first, but then I figured it out, because in addition to the Central Army, a large part of this army is a miscellaneous soldier north of the Yellow River, Bingzhou and Jizhou. ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu couldn't help but tilt his head and smile bitterly. Then he continued: "Then what do you think these people are capable of?" ”

Zhou Zhi hesitated, but shrugged his shoulders, shook his head and said, "I don't know this very well, you should ask your sister-in-law!" ”

Hearing this, Xu Shu smiled softly, did not hesitate, and immediately replied softly: "Husband, in fact, although these people are far from famous generals, they are all good generals, and they still have some skills." Especially Chun Yuqiong, it is very strange, although he is very drunk, he is rarely seen drunk in the army. And his head is not stupid, his martial arts are okay, and among all the current generals with troops, he is the best. Of course, Zhang Hegao wants to except. ”

"Hmm!" Nodding, after Wang Xu understood the real situation, he was also silent, thinking in his heart: In this way, the ability of this group of people should be closer to historical facts. In the official history, Chun Yuqiong was in Zhongping for five years, that is, in 188 AD, he was tied with Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others, and was one of the eight captains of the West Garden appointed by Emperor Ling. Later, he followed Yuan Shao, and also advised to welcome the emperor to Yecheng, and coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes. And the words mentioned in the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms did not say that he lost the black nest because of drunkenness, although his nose was indeed cut by Cao Bing, but Cao Cao caught him with the original intention of remembering the old feelings and did not want to do harm! But Xu You, who had just surrendered to Cao Cao, said, "In view of the mirror, this benefit will not forget people." As a result, Cao Cao was forced to kill him. It can be said that Chun Yuqiong was very unlucky, first encountered Cao Cao who ordered to cut off the nose of a thousand Yuan Jun to humiliate Yuan Shao, but it happened that he was also cut off. Then Xu You fell into the well again, and stimulated Cao Cao with a rhetorical remark, saying that he can see your kindness in the mirror every day, and he will definitely not forget you. With Cao Cao's suspicious character, where can he still be tolerated, of course, he will be killed with a knife.

After carefully analyzing Chun Yuqiong's deeds, Wang Xu also let go of his apprehension a little, this person should still have some ability, otherwise it would be impossible to mix well under Emperor Ling and Yuan Shao.

However, seeing that Wang Xu didn't speak for a long time, Xu Shuxiu frowned, but couldn't help but speak: "Husband, in fact, I think it's really inappropriate to send a single Chun Yu Qiong to keep this Guangnian, although he has some ability, but we can't afford to gamble!" ”

"Huh?" Hearing this, Wang Xu, who came back to his senses, smiled and said indifferently: "Don't worry about this!" I just want to be sure that Chun Yuqiong has the ability to keep the new year. As for not leaving a back hand, it's impossible, don't say that I'm not worried about Guangnian, even if it's Guo Dian, I'm not at ease. Therefore, it is necessary to appoint a wise and brave general to respond in the rear, but I have neither determined the candidate nor figured out where this person should be stationed, so I didn't mention it in the council hall just now, and I will talk about it after two days of careful investigation and study. ”

As he spoke, Wang Xu frowned and paused, and then continued: "But if you look at the current generals in the army, it seems that only Xu Huang or Gao Shun is suitable for this position. But I can't do without them on the way east, what a headache! ”

Seeing Wang Xu's distressed appearance, Xu Shu also frowned, but Zhou Zhi suddenly said after his eyes turned a few times: "Boss, I should be able to add two people together!" ”

"Oh? Who is it? As soon as he heard Zhou Zhi's words, Wang Xu suddenly asked curiously. And Xu Shu also looked at him suspiciously.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhi smiled mysteriously at Xu Shu and Wang Xu, and then said softly: "Guan Hai and Yang Feng!" ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu was stunned for a moment, a little unclear So, aren't these two yellow scarves? But then he reacted, and immediately said in surprise: "You mean to say that Guan Hai and Yang Feng surrendered?" ”

At this time, Xu Shu also reacted, knowing that Wang Xu didn't know yet, so she immediately took over with a smile: "Yes!" Husband, here's the thing. At the beginning, Zhang Lie sent people to hunt you down, but in fact, there were only two portraits, one was you and the other was Zhang Jing. After you separated, Zhang Jing was caught not long after, but fortunately, it fell into the hands of Yang Feng. Yang Feng thought of the old relationship and couldn't bear to kill him, so Zhang Jing told all Zhang Lie's crimes. That Yang Feng is also a man, and he was immediately furious when he heard the whole story, and immediately released Zhang Jing, and sent someone to report Zhang Lie's matter to Zhang Jiao. But this matter may have leaked the rumors, although Zhang Lie was locked up by Zhang Jiao at the moment, he was still informed, so he secretly ordered and conspired to arrest Yang Feng. Yang Feng was already extremely disappointed at the moment, so when the first order came down and asked him to return to Guangzong quickly, he understood that Zhang Lie was going to do something to him, and in grief and anger, he led his henchmen to rebel in the middle of the way. ”

"Oh! I see. Nodding, Wang Xu sighed, and couldn't help asking, "Why didn't Zhang Jiao stop it?" Also, why did Zhang Jiao close Zhang Lie's tightness? ”

It's not that he can't stop it, but he can't stop it, and the subordinates who obey Zhang Lie and the subordinates who obey Zhang Jiao have been divided into two factions. At first, because of Zhang Jiao's love for Zhang Lie, he didn't care about it, but when Zhang Lie's matter gradually reached Zhang Jiao's ears, he found that he couldn't stop it, and half of them obeyed Zhang Lie's orders. It is precisely because of this that he nominally closed Zhang Lie tightly and temporarily stabilized his subordinates, but in fact it had no effect at all, and he himself was so angry that his old illness relapsed and collapsed in bed. As he spoke, Xu Shu smiled at Wang Xu before he continued: "As for how Zhang Jiao knew about Zhang Lie's malignancy, it was because after Guan Hai failed to attack our army's grain road in Xihua and fled, he knew that Zhang Lie would definitely kill him according to the military order, and he was unwilling to be framed to death by Zhang Lie, so he ran back to Hebei first, and personally reported everything to Zhang Jiao. And at this time, he also knew that none of the people he had sent to deliver the letter to Zhang Jiao could deliver it. ”

Hearing so much, Wang Xu almost deduced the cause and effect, and couldn't help but smile and continued: "Is it true that Zhang Jiao's investigation is true, and there is no publicity." Instead, he waited for Zhang Lie to be defeated in Xihua and fled back to Hebei to deal with it, but at this time he found that he couldn't deal with it? ”

"Huh! Husband, you're too smart. Xu Shu happily stretched out her hand and patted Wang Xu's face, and after Wang Xu dodged away dissatisfiedly, she smiled and said, "Yes!" Not only that, Guan Hai was almost assassinated, but fortunately, he was rescued by Chu Feiyan and Zhang Niujiao and others, and led his troops to sneak into the so-called Black Mountain, that is, the Taihang Mountains in later generations. It wasn't until he heard that Zhang Jing was being chased and killed that Guan Hai ran out to save him, and after several twists and turns, he finally found the Han army camp and was persuaded by Zhang Jing to stay. Later, Zhang Jing took Guan Hai and Yang Feng to write down Zhang Lie's bad behavior and distribute it. It is also because of this that it has caused turmoil in the entire Yellow Turban, many old generals and old ministers have scattered, and now the rest, except for the diehard people of the three Zhang Jiao brothers, are all people who have already boarded Zhang Lie's ship of no return. ”

As Xu Shu finished speaking, Zhou Zhi on the side also sighed embarrassedly: "Yes! If Zhang Jiao was made by Zhang Lie to betray his relatives, otherwise it would really take a lot of effort to exterminate the Yellow Turban! ”

But when Wang Xu heard this, he sighed deeply, shook his head slowly, and said: "Actually, Zhang Jiao can quickly stabilize the situation, and the reason why everyone betrayed and left his relatives also has his own reasons. ”

Hearing this, Xu Shu immediately blinked strangely and said, "Husband, how do you say this?" ”

Wang Xu took a deep breath and thought about it, but shook his head and said, "But it's easy to stand from the perspective of a bystander, but it's difficult to stand from the angle of Zhang Jiao." Because the only way is to kill Zhang Lie as soon as he returns to Hebei. At that time, who dared to make trouble with Zhang Lie's group of minions? Who dares to avenge Zhang Lie, who dares to provoke him, the real leader of the Yellow Turban Army? At this time, as long as he rewards and punishes in an orderly manner and orders the system, he will have a higher prestige, and maybe the Yellow Turban can be more combative and cohesive. ”

As he spoke, Wang Xu's voice gradually became heavier. "So, I don't dare to say anything else, but from what I have seen and heard since the Yellow Turban, I feel that although Zhang Jiao is extremely talented, he is not a person with great wisdom. From the initial indulgence of Zhang Lie to the later rebellion of the Yellow Turban without strict restraint, it all illustrates a problem. He himself has never thought about what it means to govern the country and what it means to level the world? In his mind, perhaps all he had in mind was how to grow his power, how to occupy more territory, and how to defeat the imperial army's army as quickly as possible. This short-sightedness is the limitation. ”

As he spoke, Wang Xu glanced at Xu Shu and Zhou Zhi deeply, and said slowly: In the future, we must take caution! ”

After speaking, Wang Xu was silent for a long time, and when he saw that neither of them spoke, he couldn't help but smile: "Okay!" Don't think about it so much, to get back to the point, I have also seen the skills of Guan Hai and Yang Feng, with Guan Hai as the general, and Yang Feng as the deputy, he can really barely take on this responsibility. ”

However, as soon as Wang Xu's words came out, Xu Shu suddenly shook her head and said, "Husband, I don't do this?" ”

"Huh? Why? ”

Smiling slightly, Xu Shu glanced at Wang Xu, and then continued: "It's not for your sake!" Because Guan Hai and Yang Feng did surrender, but Zhang Jing persuaded the two not to join the army, but only temporarily accept the supervision of the army. The purpose of such a big effort is not to want the two of them to be appointed by the imperial court, you must know that such a yellow turban general, the emperor will definitely be gracious, and it is not up to you to decide where to appoint the Dao when the time comes. That's why Zhang Jing asked the two of them to refuse to join the army and be willing to be civilians, just so that they could serve you in the future. If you're appointed now, it's not yours, but you'll have to do it yourself! ”
