Chapter 57: A New Layout
"Ling Ma Teng and Han Sui each led 10,000 people to the south, stationed in Deng County and Qingyang respectively, Zhang He led an army of 10,000, and Li Dian was the deputy general to go to Langya to guard against Changba's recurrence."
Not to mention Yuan Xi's side, Cao Cao, who returned to Xudu, eased up, and immediately began to arrange to go to Jingzhou to grab the land, and at the same time, he also received a little change from this guy Chang Xuan.
Zhang He finally blocked one side in advance, although he was also in the state before, but Cao Cao did not give many troops, and mainly relied on himself to win over the Wuhuan people and the Southern Huns.
This time, Cao Cao directly gave him 10,000 horses, and sent Li Dian, who had just been released, to assist, and handed over the entire northern part of Xuzhou to him to decide.
There is not only the reason for being stimulated by Gao Ran, but also the implication of preventing Zhang He from being damaged after cooperating with Ma Teng and Han Sui.
The recruitment of Han Ma was just Cao Cao's wishful thinking, and he also wanted to see if the two brothers would answer the call.
In Yixian County, Shaanxi, Zhang Ji knelt opposite Ma Teng, quietly watching Ma Teng read the letter written by Cao Cao.
Zhang was born in Gaoling, Shaanxi, and was famous in the township since he was a child, and was promoted to filial piety, and after Zhong Xuan served as the lieutenant of Si Li, he was always reused, and last time he and Fu Gan lobbied Ma Teng Han Sui to support Cao Cao.
In the seventh year of Jian'an, Han and Ma fell to Cao Cao and killed the high-ranking general Guo Yuan, and Zhang was promoted to Yilang, and this time he came to discuss with Ma Teng.
After Ma Teng finished reading the letter, Zhang Ji spoke: "Does Brother Shoucheng feel that Cao Sikong returned from a big defeat in this battle and is not worthy of support?" ”
Ma Teng's straightforward question made Ma Teng embarrassed, and he hurriedly waved his hand and denied it: "Brother De Rong misunderstood, Teng is worried that Han Wenyue has no faith, once our army is opened, he will take advantage of the fire to rob." ”
Zhang Ji solemnly hugged his fists and said: "Brother Shoucheng has not thought about it at all, if you don't listen to the call this time, just give Han Wenyue an excuse, he and Cao Sikong are old friends, as long as he doesn't involve too many interests of him, he will definitely answer the call, and when the time comes, it will be justified to crusade against you on the grounds that you don't listen to the orders of the imperial court." ”
How Ma Teng is not clear about this, it is precisely for this reason that he hesitates, to be reasonable, since the death of Li Dao Guo Yan in Xiliang, Han Sui's power is the largest, and Ma Teng is not comparable to him.
Don't think that there is a very stylish son Ma Chao, in fact, in the late Han Dynasty, Xiliang Han and Ma competed, and Ma Teng was always at a disadvantage.
This is also an important reason why he had to go to Yecheng later, Han Sui didn't have to go, not to use the orthodox name of the imperial court, so that Han Sui had scruples and didn't dare to attack his subordinates.
Seeing Ma Teng's face tangled and ugly, Zhang Ji spoke again and persuaded: "If Brother Shoucheng is worried about the problem of his family, he doesn't have to, it is better to send it to Xudu, so that Lang Mengqi is already an adult, and the army is handed over to him to be in charge, isn't it better for you to take other families into the court as officials?" ”
"Let's talk about that."
Ma Teng shook his head, he didn't want to send someone under the fence, the whole family went to Yecheng, which is equivalent to people being swords and I being fish and meat, and I will not do this unless I have to.
As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Ji and said, "Can Brother De Jong guarantee that Han Wenyue will not attack our department during the dispatch of troops?" If it can be guaranteed, Ma will be called. ”
Zhang Jizheng said: "If Han Wenyue attacks Yixian, Zhang promises in the name of the ancestors of the Zhang family that he will avenge you!" ”
Naturally, he couldn't restrain Han Sui, but he could guarantee it like this, which shows that sincerity is enough, and the importance that the ancients attached to the oath was incomprehensible to future generations.
Even in order to fulfill the oath, it is better to do treason, not to mention this kind of oath guaranteed by the ancestors, and few people dare to break the contract.
Ma Teng immediately agreed, and immediately led the troops south after arranging his family, and obeyed the dispatch of the imperial court.
On the other side, Fu Gan went to Jincheng, and after talking to Yan Xing in detail, he went to Han Sui, and with the same persuasion, coupled with Yan Xing's assistance, Han Sui should also do this, but he could only send 6,000 troops.
The reason he said was that most of his subordinates were Qiang soldiers, and it was not suitable to take too much to the Central Plains, not only would the combat effectiveness be weakened, but also the local people would be disgusted, after all, there were too many rebellions in the Xiqiang.
Fu Gan didn't care either, as long as you personally led the troops, what Cao Cao wanted was actually to look at your attitude, don't be a grass on the wall.
In August of the 11th year of Jian'an, Cao Cao's army went south again to attack Jingzhou, and coincidentally, when the army set off from Xinye, Changfeng of Donghai County rebelled.
Fortunately, Zhang He and Li Dian kept an eye on him, and immediately sent troops to quell the rebellion, and Cao Cao's camp was fighting on both sides.
Changfeng is not so easy to defeat, in the romance they play soy sauce, and the author just brought a stroke, so everyone thinks it is very easy.
In fact, Chang Feng rebelled, the first time was Zhang Liao and Xiahou Yuan joined forces to crusade, and they did not fight for several months, and then Zhang Liao went up the mountain alone, visited Chang Yuan's family, and won his trust before surrendering.
The second time was this time, which was originally joined forces by Xiahou Yuan and Yu Ban, and it took several months for him to surrender to his old friend Yu Ban, but he was killed by Yu Ban.
Yu Ban's stain later became difficult for him to wash away for the rest of his life, the reason is very simple, it was your old friend who came to surrender to you.
But you said solemnly that you can't be a man without principles, and in the end you surrendered to Guan Yu yourself, so where did your principles go.
Now that Zhang He and Li Dian are replaced to quell the rebellion, they may not be much better than Xiahou Yuan and Yu Ban, after all, Xiahou Yuan's prestige is by no means smaller than Zhang He, and Yu Ban is better than Li Dian.
The five good generals in the descendant row did not have Xiahou Yuan, because Cao Cao's subordinates surnamed Cao and those surnamed Xiahou were not listed.
But Cao Cao's most important use in the war was actually Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren, not only because it was because of his own family, these two people were indeed very good, and they were both great generals who could take charge of themselves.
Yuan Xi is also busy now, and the matter of Bingzhou was thrown to Jia Xu, and Zhang Xiu was taken to Bingzhou, and he ran to Liaodong by himself and took Gan Ning to it.
Hao Zhao was appointed as the general of Liyang and officially became the rank of Hebei generals, no one objected to his decision, and his performance in the two battles of Guangzong City and Cishan City satisfied everyone.
The trial returned to Yecheng to preside, and cooperated with the town to guard Jizhou, Qingzhou was still handed over to Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang was transferred to build Yanjing City, Gao Gan cooperated with Jia Xu, and Hua Mulan returned to Julu County to guard it.
Wei Yan sat in Guangzong City, and he could support Yecheng to the west and Qingzhou to the east, and the entire four states of Hebei were arranged and he ran by himself.
"Xingba, take a look, where else do you want to change this drawing?"
Yuan Xi didn't go to Liaodong to play, but planned to build sea ships, and build a port in Liaodong, and at the same time build a port in the Denglai area, he wanted to build a navy.
This is not his imagination, Gongsun Du was able to cross the sea from Liaodong to occupy Denglai, which means that there were sea ships in the late Han Dynasty, otherwise it would be impossible to transport a large number of troops.
There is also Sun Quan who also set up Chuantun in Fujian, which is the author's hometown of Xiapu County, which is a seaside county, and the earliest development is Sun Quan's Wenmatun, which is to build sea ships.
