Chapter 101: Jia Xu Comes to Vote
At the beginning of the rising sun, Li Hao walked out of Luoyang with the team.
Luoyang City under the rising sun is majestic, and the mottled city walls are full of traces of history.
Li Ru followed Li Hao and said, "There are eight passes in Luoyang, among which Mengjin Pass, Xiaopingjin Pass, and Tiger Prison Pass are the most important. Lieutenant Mengjin has already expressed his willingness to surrender, but there is no news from Xiaopingjin for the time being. β
Li Hao asked: "Who is guarding Xiaopingjin Pass now?" β
Li Ru said respectfully: "Guarded by Jia Xu, the commander of Pingjin, this person is resourceful and extraordinary. β
Jia Xu!
Li Hao raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and became interested.
Jia Xu, Ziwenhe, was a famous strategist and military strategist in the early years of the Three Kingdoms, and a hero of the founding of Cao Wei.
Jia Xu was originally Dong Zhuo's general, and after Dong Zhuo's death, he proposed Li Dao and Guo Yan to counterattack Chang'an. After the failure of Li Dao and others, they became Zhang Xiu's advisers. Zhang Xiu had used his strategy to defeat Cao Cao twice, and before the Battle of Guandu, he persuaded Zhang Xiu to surrender to Cao Cao.
Throughout Jia Xu's life, it can be said that it is full of legends.
After Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao and other princes, in the end, not only could he die, but he was also one of the three princes. This alone is enough to imagine Jia Xu's ability.
Li Hao thought back to Jia Xu's life, and suddenly thought of a very interesting question.
Xun You and Zhang Liao were the advisers and generals that Cao Cao relied on in history.
Now that they are all being co-opted by themselves, if they can subdue Jia Xu, wouldn't they have dug up Cao Cao's future corner.
Just as Li Hao was thinking wildly, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from afar.
But I saw more than a dozen knights coming from the front, and the leader had a thin and vicissitudes of life, and a pair of eyes seemed to be able to see through everything.
Everyone rode their horses to Li Hao and the others dozens of meters away and stopped, and the middle-aged man with a vicissitudes of life stepped off the horse and bowed his hand: "Xiaguan Jia Xu, meet Tingwei." β
Jia Xu!
Li Hao was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that he was still thinking about the problem of subduing Jia Xu just now, and he met a real person here.
He glanced at the dozens of horsemen beside Jia Xu who did not have blades, and had roughly guessed Jia Xu's intention in his heart, and said with a smile: "What does Wen He mean by this?" β
Jia Xu said calmly: "The lower officials heard about the incident in the capital, and specially came to surrender to Tingwei. β
Jia Xu's expression was extremely natural, and he didn't regard surrender as a shameful thing.
As he spoke, he glanced at Li Ru with a little surprise, a little surprised in his heart.
Jia Xu frowned, faintly feeling that things in Luoyang didn't seem to be as simple as he thought before. If it is a normal coup d'Γ©tat, with the relationship between Li Ru and Dong Zhuo, it is unlikely that he will survive.
And the current relationship between Tingwei and Li Ru is really not like the appearance of a victor and a captive.
Li Ru, it's too calm.
The most important thing is that Luoyang is changing too fast, so fast that it is almost incredible.
When Jia Xu first heard the news, he felt that this change was too sudden.
With his understanding of Dong Zhuo, if he was so easily solved, he would not have been in charge of the government for nearly a year. With Dong Zhuo's prudence and the strategy of Li Ru and others, it would never be possible to make such a low-level and ridiculous mistake.
Now that Jia Xu sees the closeness between Li Ru and Li Hao, he recalls the recent rumors about Dong Zhuo's critical illness, and suddenly has a bold guess in his heart.
Could it be that this coup d'Γ©tat was a drama from beginning to end!
Surrender!
Li Hao couldn't react slightly, but thinking of Jia Xu's various actions in history, he roughly understood his decision.
If Jia Xu is talking about merit, he may not be as good as Xun You and others.
But when it comes to the ability to save his life and stand in line, Jia Xu is really a talent that few people can match in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. At least in the history that Li Hao knows, no one has changed four or five heads like Jia Xu, and he can still be a powerful person who can be the ultimate in people.
He was silent for two seconds, and couldn't help but smile: "You're very interesting." β
Jia Xu woke up from his contemplation and didn't dare to continue thinking about it.
He said with a smile: "Yan Zi once said: Those who know the times are handsome, and those who change through the machine are heroes." A certain is just more afraid of death, and he should not be praised by the court captain. β
"Okay, what a scared death. There are hundreds of millions of living beings in the world, and there are a few people who are not afraid of death. Li Hao couldn't help laughing in the face of Jia Xu's straightforwardness, and invited: "I have heard that Wenhe is very talented, I don't know if I can ask Wenhe for advice." β
Jia Xu's eyes lit up slightly, and he was a little excited.
Although he didn't know where Li Hao heard about the so-called big name, it was a good opportunity to perform in front of his future boss. For Jia Xu, who has always been ambitious, but has never had the opportunity to show it, Li Hao's invitation is like nectar after a long drought, and the beauty in his heart is ah.
Jia Xu said happily: "I don't dare to be a court lieutenant to ask for advice, it should be a certain learning from the court lieutenant, right?" β
Li Hao couldn't help laughing.
Jia Xu is really a wonderful person.
Li Hao knew a lot of celebrities during this time, but most of them were arrogant and arrogant, or conceited and clear-minded, and no one knew what discipline was like Jia Xu.
At the same time, the Tiger Prison Passes.
By June, the Xiliang army had become tired under the siege of the princes, and the flames of war had begun to move away from the area around Sili to the edge of Sili.
Dong Min and others led hundreds of thousands of troops out of the customs to fight, wanting to resist the alliance of the princes outside the division.
However, in the face of the menacing Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu coalition army, the hundreds of thousands of Xiliang troops were finally defeated and retreated because they were outnumbered.
In the past few months, the Xiliang army has retreated to the vicinity of the Tiger Prison Pass under the siege of the princes' coalition forces.
After that, it's Si Li.
Once the flames of war burned to Si Li, it also meant the failure of the Xiliang Army's battle plan.
Therefore, now, whether it is Dong Min or Xiliang Jun, they are more impatient and uneasy.
Because if you retreat further, the war will burn to Luoyang!
If the capital is occupied, it will be tantamount to a complete defeat for the Xiliang army.
Tiger Prison Pass, Government Office.
The room was dim, the doors and windows were closed, and only two figures sat in it.
One is a tall, burly middle-aged man, who is Dong Zhuo's younger brother Dong Min. The other person has a handsome face, and it is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu.
The two sat opposite each other, a pot of hot tea on the low table in front of them.
Dong Min said heavily: "Is it arranged?" β
Niu Fu said: "It has been arranged, Li Dao and the others will arrive at the Tiger Prison Pass tonight." β
"That's good."
Niu Fu said unwillingly: "Third uncle, do we really want to surrender to that little boy?" With the strength in our hands, even Lu Bu is also. β
"Enough!"
Dong Min's eyes turned into copper bells, and he said coldly with an unkind face: "Hmph, this is the order of the eldest brother, and you can question it." β
Niu Fu didn't say anything more, but the unwillingness on his face did not completely dissipate.
Dong Min sighed, the anger on his face receded, and he smiled bitterly: "If you are not willing to surrender to that little child, am I willing."
It's just that now the princes from all walks of life are coming, and the eldest brother is fine when he is here.
Now that the eldest brother is critically ill, if we offend the Lu brothers again, we won't even have a chance to retreat. Once defeated, Li Dao and the others can still change their courts, but we don't even have a chance to surrender.
The eldest brother is also for the good of my Dong family, otherwise do you think that the eldest brother would be willing to make this kind of cowardly choice? β
Niu Fu was silent and sighed silently.
He knew that the most painful person in making this choice was actually Dong Zhuo.
"Fu understands, and he will not lie in the future." Niu Fu took a deep breath and bowed to show that he was taught.
Then, his expression was heavy, and he said, "Although the generals have returned, Guo Yan seems to be different. β
Dong Min's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sneered: "It's okay, Ting Wei will rush to the Tiger Prison Pass today." If Guo Yan is honest, if he dares to have other ideas, the old man doesn't mind giving him a ride. β
