Volume 2 Chapter 126 Ordered to Expedition
Of course, He Miao wanted the emperor to send the fifth lieutenant of the Northern Army or others to suppress the bandits, but when the emperor spoke, he could only nod and promise, in fact, this was only one of his goals, and he did not have any hope that this goal would be achieved, so he was not disappointed. Then he glanced at the backs of He Jin and Yuan Kui and suddenly remembered a person, so he went out of work again and knelt down: "Your Majesty, if there are thieves and soldiers in Xingyang, you should immediately lead the troops to exterminate them, but Weichen is widowed and has few weapons, and I also implore Your Majesty to transfer a person to assist Weichen." ”
The emperor didn't even bother to raise his eyelids, and asked angrily, "Who do you want?" ”
He Miao secretly glanced behind him, raised his head and said, "Yilang Weixuan." ”
Wei Xuan was wandering the world, and when he saw the eyes of many courtiers stealing over, Ya's ears suddenly echoed He Miao's voice: Yilang Wei Xuan!
Emperor Liu Hong and Wei Xuan's reaction was actually the same, first frowned, of course he knew that the second son of the Wei family came to Luoyang, but before the Taiwei and the general jointly recommended him as Yilang, he was transferred from the position of Sima in other departments to Yilang, and there was no special preferential treatment, he had almost forgotten Wei Xuan, but today He Miao suddenly mentioned that he knew the relationship between He Miao and He Jin.
The emperor pondered for a while and didn't seem to remember who Yilang Weixuan was, so he looked at Wang Yun and asked, "Wang Qing, can Yilang Weixuan be in the palace today?" ”
Wang Yun nodded towards the emperor when he got out of class, and then looked at Wei Xuan, he was also worried about Wei Xuan in his heart, it was obvious that the emperor was still worried about Cai Yong's collision with him, otherwise it would be impossible for Wei Xuan to enter Beijing for so long without being summoned once, not to mention the identity of Yi Lang, Wei Xuan is the son of the Taishi.
Wei Xuan had no choice but to go out of class and come to the middle to kneel on the ground: "The little minister Wei Xuan has seen Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed." ”
Liu Hong sat on the dragon chair, bowed to the air with his right hand and said with a smile: "I heard that the son of the Taishi family is both civil and military, and it is good for Henan Yin to recommend you." Come forward and let me see it. ”
Wei Xuan scolded his mother in his heart, he was not familiar with He Miao, he had just come to Luoyang and was about to go on an expedition, he was unhappy, but he still honestly walked a few steps on his knees, and stopped where Wang Yun was standing.
Liu Hong seemed to be very interested, beckoning to him, Wei Xuan could only continue to walk on his knees for a few steps, but he still lowered his head, thinking that he had probably reached the position of the lieutenant and could not go any further.
Sure enough, Liu Hong did not continue to beckon him forward, but said, "You are flat." ”
Wei Xuan slowly got up from the ground as he obeyed, and couldn't help but be curious and secretly glanced in the direction of the dragon chair, and at this glance he felt that this big man was a fluke if he was not finished. Calculating the age, Emperor Liu Hong is only thirty-five or sixteen this year, it is when a man is in his prime, but this is described as withered and his eye sockets are deep-set, of course, this is not the disaster victims that Wei Xuan has seen in Hedong, this is the first person in the Han Dynasty, it is unspeakably expensive, and it is natural that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty cannot be pretended by others, so there is only one reason for this dignity to be overly drunk. Thinking of the legend, this woman in the palace wore open crotch pants so that he could commit adultery at any time, and even built a naked swimming hall in the palace and let dozens of palace maids accompany him to swim naked.
But Wei Xuan didn't dare to look at it more, it was offensive to Tianyan, although Wei Xuan didn't have any respect for the current royal family, but he couldn't stand the power in the hands of others, and life and death were only in a thought.
Liu Hong looked at it for a while and praised: "Sure enough, there is the style of the Taishi back then, Henan Yin recommended you, then you will go out with the army." ”
Yuan Kui and He Jin glanced at each other and did not speak, Cao Cao looked in the direction of Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao just turned sideways and glanced at him without saying anything.
Wei Xuan saw everyone's reaction as he retreated, and could only kneel on the ground again: "The minister obeys the order!" ”
Then Wei Xuan returned to the end of the team, and he didn't have the heart to care about what was discussed in the court. In his memory, Xingyang's rebellion was not big, He Miaowei and Yala were on their own, if Alloy and Yuan Shao wanted to recommend themselves, they would definitely send someone to communicate with him in advance, and he Miao was also making his own decisions.
Looking at He Miao's back, Wei Xuan couldn't help but think of Yuan Shao's desire for Yuan Shu's brothers, although these two were not born to the same mother, after all, they were the same father. However, this He Miao has nothing to do with the general He Jin, their sister Queen He is He Miao's half-sister and half-sister of He Jin. He Miao was originally Zhu, and later married He Jin and Queen He's father with her mother, and changed her surname to He.
The half-brothers are like that, He Jin and He Miao have no blood relationship, and they are afraid that they will not accept the alloy in their hearts.
Sure enough, after waiting for the court, Yuan Shao and He Jin both sent people to explain that it was not their intention to let Wei Xuan go with the army this time. In fact, it doesn't matter who means, the key is that he is unwilling to cooperate with this kind of relative, because the credit for winning the battle is theirs, and if there is a mistake, he will be the one to blame. He Miao was not from a family but was a powerful person in the dynasty, and Wei Xuan was worried that such a person would command blindly.
He Miao didn't let him wait long, not long after returning to the house, He Miao sent someone to invite Wei Xuan, and when he arrived at He Miao's mansion, he knew that he was almost ready to go on the expedition, and then He Miao ordered Wei Xuan to be the vanguard to rest for one night today, and tomorrow outside the city to join forces with three thousand county soldiers to send troops to Xingyang, and he himself took two thousand auxiliary soldiers to escort grain and grass. Seeing that Yuan Shu and his subordinates were full of confidence, Wei Xuan really couldn't find the role of his appearance in this expeditionary team, could it be that He Miao was just a temporary idea, so what was his purpose? Xingyang is two hundred miles away, it is impossible to let the thieves grow stronger and raise their own respect, victory is inevitable, is he a townsman and a soldier to win himself over?
Wei Xuan thought in his heart that it was only two hundred miles from Xingyang to Luoyang, and the city in the middle and around Xingyang were still in the hands of the imperial court, where did the three thousand people need two thousand auxiliaries to go out? This is clearly a matter of hiding.
Wei Xuan wanted to go on the expedition, Du Peng and others naturally had to follow, Wei Xuan didn't know what He Miao was thinking, so naturally he also asked everyone to go out in full gear, leaving twenty people and the four daughters of Chunqin to take care of the house, and the remaining eighty people all followed Wei Xuan on the expedition.
When Wei Xuan took people to the assembly place of the county soldiers, both sides were taken aback, compared with the county soldiers in Hedong, the Henan soldiers can be regarded as elite, at least from the equipment, Wei Xuan found that about half of these people are wearing steel armor, and nearly 600 people are Zhang Shi, the proportion is surprisingly high.
The 3,000 people were led by three Simas and six military marquis to line up beside the official road, originally wanting to guard and dismount.
As a result, Wei Xuan rode a tall snow-stepping black horse, and there were all cavalry behind him, these Sima and military marquis knew that the Wei family guests were powerful, but they were powerful for assassins, and they still had to look at the battle formation on the battlefield, and they soon had a strong sense of oppression, and they were really dismounted by Wei Xuan.
waited until Wei Xuan led the people to the front of the formation and stopped twenty or so steps, a few famous Sima and military marquis, you look at me, I look at you, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief in my heart.
Although Wei Xuan sighed in his heart, he also knew that this detachment was not something he could command at will, so he jumped down from his horse and said to the leading Simas: "Yilang Wei Xuan set out on the expedition by holy decree, and was promoted to the vanguard general by Henan Yin, I don't know if you are the main force in this expedition to Xingyang?" ”
Although the three Simas were unhappy in their hearts, Wei Xuan oppressed people with the holy decree, and they had also been instructed by He Miao, Wei Xuan was the temporary commander of this team, and they could only step forward and salute: "I have seen the pioneer." ”
"I've seen Ryoro,"
"I've seen Wei Yilang."
"I've seen Wei Xianxian."
Wei Xuan couldn't help frowning, and the names of eight or nine people were also messy. But after thinking about it, I was relieved, after all, these guys are also six hundred stones, Sima is a thousand stones, the key is that although they are county soldiers, they are indeed subordinate to Yin He Miao in Henan.
The meeting between the two sides was not happy, and the team had to be brought, and Wei Xuan left three Simas after meeting everyone.
】
Then Wei Xuan also ordered unceremoniously: "Wang Sima, you lead the team in front, pay attention to sending scouts to investigate the situation in Xingyang." ”
Wang Sima nodded and stood lazily aside.
Wei Xuan then looked at the other two Simas: "Have Zhang Sima and Liu Sima prepared the dry food for these two days?" Can scouts be sent to investigate the situation in Xingyang City? ”
The two shook their heads with a wry smile, although they were arrogant, they would not be pulled out to suppress the bandits, and they didn't expect to let a young man under twenty be their commander.
Wei Xuan's face sank, and then he turned to Wang Qiang and said, "Immediately send scouts to search everywhere to open the way for the whole army." ”
Wang Qiang nodded in agreement, and then more than twenty cavalry followers left the group.
The three Simas also wanted to explain, but Wei Xuan bowed his hand and said, "The whole army is leaving!" ”
These horses and military marquis had war horses, but most of the others were infantry, and according to the normal pace of marching, it would take at least four days to arrive at Xingyang today. Unexpectedly, Wei Xuan sent scouts so early, and completely gave up the scouts of the county soldiers to prepare for his own righteousness, these Sima and the military marquis were naturally unconvinced.
There were no accidents in the march on the outskirts of Beijing, and the discipline of the county soldiers was not bad, and there was no covert looting. It's just that after setting up camp that day, it was just getting dark, and Wei Yilang was in the middle of the army's tent.
The three Sima originally wanted to come to Wei Xuan to drink here, but Wei Xuan just asked the three county soldiers about their training on weekdays, which made the three of them bored, thinking that after the three of them left, the three of them had a drink alone, but they were about to go out, and several military marquis ran into the tent in a panic: "Yilang, Sima, the big thing is not good, there are thieves in our rear, and it is the cavalry attacking the camp." ”
Hearing this, everyone was shocked, Wei Xuan also frowned, and Du Peng rushed out of the tent with a brisk step, and then began to gather the cavalry.
A moment later, Du Peng led the eighty-plus Ming cavalry towards the place of the commotion, and the three Sima and several military marquis were a little ashamed.
Wei Xuan asked the marquis who spoke first, "How many enemies are there?" How far is the distance? ”
The military marquis shook his head blankly, Wei Xuan frowned again, he didn't expect that the Henan county soldiers who looked bright on the outside were also so unbearable, his face had been pulled down and he continued to ask: "Since you don't know the situation of the thief soldiers, why do you send more scouts to investigate clearly?" I don't know why I messed up first? All of them quickly return to their positions to rectify their people, and don't mess with themselves. Wait for Momo to challenge Xuan's military law! ”
Then he turned to a few guests around him and said loudly: "Pass my order, and the songs will stick to the camp and kill without mercy?" ”
