Chapter 40: Longxi
Xiahou Xuan helped Yang Zheng up again, his eyes were quite pleased, "General Right said some time ago that Qiang will have a strange move, persuade me to be more vigilant, fortunately I was calmed by you, although the people of Fufeng Di are peaceful, but the Qiang people of Longxi, Nan'an, Jincheng and Xiping counties have the image of secret union, the terrain of the mountains and rivers in Longxi is complicated, and you have to guard against the Shu army, the right general has just taken office, it is quite dangerous, I want you to go to Longxi to assist, what do you think?" ”
The right general is the famous Xiahou Ba.
Xiahou Yuan's second son.
According to the seniority, he is Xiahou Xuan's cousin.
In order to dissipate Sima Yi's power in Yongliang, Cao Shuang made another preparation before attacking Shu, and appointed Xiahou Ba as the protector of Shu and the right general, and stationed troops in Longxi County.
"My subordinates are willing to go." Yang Zheng said angrily.
In these years, there is no family background, and if you want to climb up, you only have military merits.
Xiahou Xuan nodded approvingly: "From today onwards, you will be promoted to captain, the situation in Longxi is tense, you will prepare for two days, and then go to work." ”
"Xie Dudu!" Yang Zheng's heart was overjoyed.
Du Wei is not worth mentioning in the eyes of a big man like Xiahou Xuan, but to Yang Zheng, he finally crossed the most important hurdle and stepped from a middle-level officer to a senior officer.
In the Han Dynasty, Wei and Jin dynasties, the lieutenant was in charge of the military affairs of a county in the local area, and in many cases he could also govern civil affairs.
After the Jiupin Official Law, Du Wei was gradually monopolized by the family.
According to Yang Zheng's original trajectory, if nothing else, it is likely that Du Wei will be the unreachable ceiling above his head.
Naturally, I was grateful to Xiahou Xuan in my heart.
I secretly thought that if it was Xiahou Xuan who was in power in the court, perhaps Cao Wei still had a glimmer of hope that he could maintain a fragile balance between the old ministers of the family and the emerging magnates.
It's a pity that Xiahou Xuan was hated by Emperor Ming because he didn't like the brother of Queen Mao and was demoted from the circle of power.
Resurrection is still a blessing for Cao Shuang.
Thinking of Cao Shuang, Yang Zheng couldn't help but feel a little gloomy in his heart.
"In the first battle of Luogu, most of the elite of the Chinese army was lost, the country was in danger, and when the imperial court hired people, you should encourage yourself." Xiahou Xuan had a certain hope in his eyes.
It's like an elder's expectation of a junior.
A warm current rose in Yang Zheng's heart, "Zheng remember the teachings of the governor. ”
"If you lack anything in your army, you can go to the treasury to collect it yourself."
"Thank you, Governor!" Yang Zheng looked at the celebrity in front of him, and his gratitude was overwhelming.
Such a gentle and elegant person, it is a pity that he was born in such an era.
So his fate was destined to be miserable......
Bidding farewell to Xiahou Xuan, Yang Zheng returned to the mansion, and he didn't even have the interest to visit Chang'an.
On the second day, I went to visit Du Pre.
Du Budget is the noble man of his life.
If it weren't for his recommendation, Xiahou Xuan wouldn't have taken him seriously.
It's a little ridiculous to think about it, I played with my life twice on the battlefield and fought bloodily, but I couldn't match a word from others.
The atmosphere of the Wei and Jin dynasties is probably like this, and I don't know how many characters have been buried like this.
"Congratulations to General Yang." Du Zhen was quite enthusiastic about Yang Zheng.
"Brother Du knows everything?"
"The general has been defeated miserably, the army's morale has been lost, it is a time when there is a shortage of people, who else can be used without General Yang?"
Seeing each other again this time, I feel that the relationship between the two is much closer.
Yang Zheng said respectfully: "Thank you Brother Du for your recommendation." ”
Du Yu waved his hand and retreated from the subordinate who was serving tea and water, "Why do you need to be like this between you and me?" ”
Seeing him so refreshing, Yang Zheng was not polite, "I don't know why Brother Du taught me this time when I went to Longxi?" ”
The situation in Longxi is complicated, there are Shu people watching outside, Qiang people are ready to move, and there are Guo Huai and Deng Ai behind them, which is simply trying to survive in the cracks.
Yang Zheng remembered that it seemed that Jiang Wei's several Northern Expeditions were staring at Longxi.
However, the more chaotic the better.
has been staying in Luoyang, Chang'an, what military merits do you have?
Du Zhen smiled and said: "The right general is strong and bold, and the general will be reused when he enters his command, so why should the general worry?" ”
Yang Zheng put his mind at ease, generally speaking, people with a bold personality are easy to get along with, and they will not put on small shoes at every turn, "Thank you Brother Du for reminding you." ”
With Du Pre's words, Yang Zheng has the bottom in his heart.
"Brother Du is talented, why don't you go to Longxi with me to make a name for yourself?" Yang Zheng really didn't hold back, and started to think about wooing.
If Du pre-goes with him, what else is there to be unfair?
As soon as the words came out, I suddenly felt abrupt.
He is the son of Youzhou Thorn History, and if he really wants to be a leader, he is too guarded or something.
But although it is abrupt, it is from the heart.
According to his family background and Du Shu's current status, he has not yet entered the office, which shows that the situation is not optimistic.
Du Yu's eyes flashed, the melancholy on his face flashed, and he arched his hand to Yang Zheng, "The general is kind, in his heart, he has the opportunity one day, and he can't go to Longyou to defect to the general." ”
Is this a refusal?
Yang Zheng didn't think much about it, according to the current status and identity of the two, it was almost the same as he defected to him.
The two talked for a while, and it happened that Du Kuan came back, and he didn't raise his eyelids when he saw him.
Yang Zheng was also embarrassed to stay, so he took a junior salute and left.
Walking in the Chang'an Market, I always felt that the melancholy on Du Pre's face had another hidden meaning.
Du Kuan is the Langzhong of the imperial court, a close minister of the emperor, and now it is an eventful time, it is said that he should be in Luoyang, but he is far away from studying martial arts.
Could it be that something happened to the Du family?
It must be.
Du Shu's uprightness is famous all over the world, and he has offended many people over the years.
Now Cao Shuang's army has been defeated and his reputation has suffered a big setback.
Maybe the old ministers of the family can't do anything about him, but they can still deal with the people who are attached to him.
Xiahou Xuan is famous and has an outstanding status, so naturally no one touches him.
Below Xiahou Xuan, the highest status is General Jianwei and Youzhou Assassin Shi Dushu.
When Ling Husheng was by his side, in addition to practicing martial arts, he often talked about the situation in the DPRK and China.
Coupled with the memory of the original owner, Yang Zheng can roughly guess one or two.
But can Cao Shuang cover Du Shu?
Thinking of Cao Shuang's personality and Deng Yang beside him, Yang Zheng is not optimistic.
In fact, Cao Shuang has many potential allies, but the change of Gao Pingling came too quickly, Cao Shuang, just like his name, surrendered very happily, so that these potential allies didn't have time to react, so they cooked raw rice and cooked rice.
Yang Zheng couldn't help but sigh.
But it's not his turn to worry about these things.
It's the time to worry about.
Du Wei can command more than 1,000 soldiers, and according to Xiahou Xuan's intentions, he can recruit in Chang'an City.
However, Yang Zheng has always preferred shortage to abundance, and Chang'an is mixed with dragons and snakes, and the recruiters don't know what to think.
It's better to go to the edge and get people.
Yang Zheng only received some weapons and armor in the treasury, gave his 400 subordinates a big change, and asked for more than 400 war horses.
Someone above is just easy to do.
There is no one to stop everything.
The Wuwei battalion was originally a cavalry, and now it asked for more than 400 war horses, and no one said anything.
Looking at the cavalry in front of him, Yang Zheng was full of pride, with these 400 people, where in the world can he go?
However, Chun Niang and the little girls still stayed in the martial arts, as well as Zhao Deng and the three hundred wounded soldiers who broke their hands and feet, and they did not take care of themselves, they must be extremely miserable in this world.
Yang Zheng thought for a while, and asked Du Bin to say hello to the Du family, let them watch it, and then pick them up when he settled in Longxi.
