Chapter 675: Two Famous Generals Return to the Dynasty
Guo Jia, as the introducer, let Zhang Liao meet with the generals of Bingzhou, and made a grand introduction.
After all, Zhang Liao is a figure that Liu Jian attaches great importance to, and he sent Zhang Liao to Bingzhou this time in order to let Zhang Liao carry the military banner in Bingzhou.
Guo Jia understood that Liu Jian had extremely high expectations for Zhang Liao, so after he asked Zhang Liao to meet with everyone here, he also secretly instructed the generals not to discriminate against Zhang Liao, a newly descended general, to cooperate with him in everything, and not to deliberately stumble on him, because he is a person that Prime Minister Liu values very much.
With Guo Jia's recommendation and respect, Zhang Liao quickly integrated into the collective of the Bingzhou Army.
Zhang Liao himself was born in Bingzhou, and he originally had many interpersonal relationships in Bingzhou.
In particular, he is very familiar with the affairs of Bingzhou and the Xiongnu, after several exchanges, the generals of Bingzhou are also very impressed by Zhang Liao's military talent, no wonder Prime Minister Liu attaches so much importance to this person? Sure enough, it's a military talent!
Especially the two generals, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong, the two of them are the people Guo Jia has relied on the most in Bingzhou in the past two years.
In the years of merging states, in the large and small counterinsurgency wars against the Xiongnu, almost all of them relied on Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong.
When Liu Jian sent Zhang Liao this time, he gave Guo Jia a private letter, and in this private letter, Liu Jian specifically mentioned that he wanted to transfer Zhao Yun to the center of Chang'an.
As a ghost talent, Guo Jia naturally understands Liu Jian's mind and knows his thoughts.
Therefore, after Zhang Liao arrived, Guo Jia deliberately asked Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and Zhang Liao to establish more communication, so that Zhang Liao could familiarize himself with the situation in the state as quickly as possible.
After Zhang Liao became familiar with the situation in the annexed states, he asked Zhao Yun to return to Chang'an to assist Liu Jian.
Zhao Yun has been fighting in the border fortress all the year round, and now when he heard that Liu Jian was going to transfer him to Chang'an, he couldn't help but hesitate in his heart.
Since he entered the army under Liu Jian, he has been self-sustaining as a general of the border army, and has fought in the north and south over the years, and has been fighting in the north and south all year round.
It can be said that he has hardly lived in a home.
Over the years, Zhao Yun has spent two-thirds of his life in the barracks.
Today's Zhao Yun is deeply popular with the military, and in his opinion, the military camp on the border is his home, and this is where he can show his skills.
But now, Liu Jian suddenly wants to get him to Chang'an City...... That Han Dynasty went to the imperial capital of the highest class!
Logically speaking, this is a kind of promotion for Zhao Yun, but Zhao Yun doesn't want to accept this kind of promotion, because he feels that life in the capital is not suitable for him.
In Zhao Yun's concept, there is intrigue and deceit everywhere.
Besides, what can you do in the capital with this skill?
So, when Guo Jia conveyed Liu Jian's summoning order to Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun said to Guo Jia at that time:
"Uncle Fang, can Yun not go to Chang'an?"
Zhao Yun's answer was somewhat unexpected by Guo Jia.
In Guo Jia's concept, Zhao Yun should be the most obedient person.
For Liu Jian, Zhao Yun can be said to be a loyal and loyal minister.
Why did he suddenly not obey Liu Jian's orders?
"Zilong has always been the most loyal to the prime minister, why shouldn't he be called to the prime minister today? Since the prime minister wants to find you in Chang'an City, he must want to entrust him with a big event! Why? ”
"If you don't go at this time, won't it chill the prime minister's heart?"
When Zhao Yun heard this, he hurriedly stood up and saluted Guo Jia:
"Uncle Fang misunderstood, Yun didn't mean to disobey the prime minister, this Chang'an City is full of high-ranking officials and high-ranking people."
"Yun is just an ordinary wealthy family, but a reckless person in the mountains and grasses, this is what Yun is good at fighting in the border counties, conquering the Quartet, and calming the disaster for the prime minister."
"Now, the prime minister asked me to go to the capital, and Zhao Yun felt that there would be nothing to help the prime minister, but it would become a drag on the prime minister, so it was better to fight on the border, and I should be able to do more for the prime minister."
When Guo Jia heard this, he laughed.
He understood the worry in Zhao Yun's heart.
He shook his head with a smile and said, "Zilong, back then, you were only a child in the Zhao clan of Changshan Country, did you ever think that you could have such achievements in the border county today?" ”
Zhao Yun was stunned when he heard this.
He was at home with Zhao Jun back then, but he was just a teenager, and he really couldn't imagine that he could become a famous general today.
"Uncle Fang! When Yun was in Changshan, he naturally couldn't have imagined that he would do what he did today...... And at that time, Yun never knew the prime minister, Yun can have today, all rely on the prime minister's cultivation, if Yun did not meet the prime minister, maybe now he is just a hero in the countryside. ”
Guo Jia said: "Since you never thought that you would be able to become a general, why do you think that you will not become a minister of the court in the future?" ”
"This ......"
"Zilong, are you questioning the prime minister's vision?"
Zhao Yun hurriedly said: "Yun naturally doesn't dare to question the prime minister!" I have always admired the prime minister's vision of people! ”
"The prime minister knows people very accurately, the best at recruiting talents, appointing good materials, and the prime minister can rank first in the world!"
Guo Jia nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's it, since you know that the prime minister is a person who knows people well, why should you be suspicious?" Since the prime minister is willing to summon you back to Chang'an, it means that he is full of confidence in you. ”
"If you want to come to Chang'an City, you must be useful."
"The world is so big, as a general of a country, you can't just exercise your ability to command troops on the border, but also have a vision of the overall situation."
"Prime Minister transferred you to Chang'an, he must want to exercise your ability, so that you can become the commander of the whole country from the border army, and you can get more military information about all aspects of the world when you sit in Chang'an, and you can better coordinate the overall situation."
"Zilong, the generals standing in the imperial court can not only lead the troops to fight, but also understand how a country's army works from top to bottom, including the delicate relationship between the court and the front-line soldiers and horses, and if you want to use a country's army, from the perspective of the country, what preparations must be made......"
"You can't learn these things in the border counties."
"The prime minister has just entered the court, and although he is in a high position, he still needs his descendants to help him control the military and politics."
"The prime minister transferred you to Chang'an at this time, which shows that he is full of trust in you."
"If you hesitate at this time, you have betrayed the trust you have placed in you."
"Zilong, can you bear to let down the prime minister?"
"According to Guo, this is not your personality."
Zhao Yun heard Guo Jia say this, and only then did he have an understanding.
He hurriedly stood up and bowed respectfully to Guo Jia.
"What Uncle Fang said is very true, Yun is not clear for a while, and he almost delayed the prime minister's big event! It seems that I have to go to Chang'an City. ”
Guo Jia said with a smile: "Go, go to Chang'an City, take a good look at this world, take a good look at our Han court, and take a good look at the difference between the Han Dynasty in the great sky and the Han Dynasty of the people." ”
Zhao Yun nodded, and suddenly seemed to remember another thing.
"Why didn't the prime minister transfer Uncle Fang to Chang'an? Since the prime minister needs to arrange his own manpower in Chang'an right now, isn't Uncle Fang the best candidate? ”
Guo Jia said: "I believe I will go sooner or later, but in the eyes of the prime minister, maybe not now." ”
Zhao Yun nodded and didn't say anything more.
He began to ponder what kind of transformation he should make after returning to Chang'an this time?
As Guo Jia said, after he arrives in Chang'an, he will change his perspective on things.
He wanted to watch everything that happened in the Han Dynasty from a higher perspective.
……
At the same time, in addition to Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei from Youzhou also received an order from Liu Jian to transfer him to Chang'an.
"Hehe, brother, I finally remembered that I was here."
Zhang Fei was sitting with Jian Yong at the moment.
He smiled and shook the silk silk in his hand to Jian Yong: "From now on, I can be regarded as a noble person in the capital, but this time it is different from before." ”
Jian Yong teased him: "When you go to Chang'an, you have to tidy up this appearance." ”
"So as not to make those perennially high-ranking insects laugh at Chang'an."
At this moment, Jian Yong was very happy for Zhang Fei.
At the same time, he was also happy for Liu Jian.
"Hey, after more than ten years, they have finally returned to the court."
"Think about when the prime minister first entered the court, he had to be controlled by others everywhere."
"Now that the times have changed, and when I enter Chang'an again, the prime minister is already the one who controls the chessboard."
"In the whole world, there are very few people who can play against Cheng."
"It seems that we can really see a different world in this life."
When Zhang Fei heard this, he laughed:
"Xianhechang, there is also a mention of you in this letter."
When Jian Yong heard this, he was taken aback.
"The prime minister hasn't mentioned me in an official document for a long time...... However, he often wrote me letters home. ”
Jian Yong chattered while taking the silk from Zhang Fei's hand.
After looking at the contents on the silk again, Jian Yongsui couldn't close his mouth in surprise.
"This ...... The prime minister actually asked me to take over Xun Yu's position as the assassin of Youzhou? ”
Zhang Fei said with a smile: "Wen Ruogong has now become Shang Shuling, and in the realm of Youzhou, one person needs to continue to take over the overall situation from him, it seems that the prime minister wants to hand over this important task to his brother." ”
Jian Yong's personality is easy-going, and he said with a wry smile: "But where can my ability compare to Xun Yu." ”
Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Why is my brother so arrogant? ”
"Actually, according to me, my brother has been assisting Xun Wenruo in dealing with various problems in Youzhou over the years, and he has also learned a lot of skills from Xun Wenruo, and all the industries in Youzhou today, including the collection of foreigners, have developed to a certain scale."
"As long as we continue step by step, there will be no chaos."
"Brother, you have been in Youzhou for so long, Youzhou's personnel, landform, and various interpersonal relationships, including whether the policy is accessible or not, you know it all very well, although in terms of expanding your career, my brother is a little worse, but you are the most suitable person for the prime minister to keep it in Youzhou."
Zhang Fei's words were reasonable, which made Jian Yong feel comfortable and confident.
"It's just that I'm a native of Youzhou, how can I be a thorn? What is not allowed by the three-mutual law......"
Zhang Fei said: "I see that the prime minister wants to abolish the three mutual laws, so as to establish his authority!" ”
Jian Yong was shocked when he heard this: "Why do you say this? ”
"The Three Mutual Law was just a helpless move back then, in order to prevent the families from colluding in the local area, but in fact it was just a helpless move, if you want to completely prevent local officials from colluding with each other, using the Three Mutual Law is by no means a long-term solution!"
Jian Yong listened to Zhang Fei's solemnity, and said with emotion: "Yide, after so many years, you are really impressive!" In addition to your ability to use soldiers, your ability to govern and analyze the current situation has been greatly enhanced, and to be honest, you are really an all-round civil and military talent now. ”
Zhang Fei said with a smile: "We are all brothers who fight the world with the prime minister, since I can make progress, brother, how can your progress be small?" ”
"It's just that you don't know it in your own heart."
Jian gently rubbed her nose with her right hand and said, "With you saying this, I have some confidence, and with the help of Tian Yu, Tian Chou and others, I am not afraid of accidents...... Well...... Everything in Youzhou has been smooth sailing, as long as everything is as usual, there will be no problem, I can be the assassin of Youzhou. ”
"The key is that if something really goes wrong, there must be a few generals who can call on the counterinsurgency! If you leave, I have to ask the prime minister to send me a fierce future from Chang'an. ”
Zhang Fei said with a smile: "You can rest assured at this point, what kind of person is the prime minister?" Youzhou is such an important territory, and the main ironware, coal, timber, water conservancy, including grain cultivation and metallurgical industries of the Han Dynasty are all here, how can he not send heavy generals to guard it? ”
"So you just take care of your Youzhou assassin history, as for military matters, the prime minister will definitely think of it for you in advance, yes or no?"
Jian Yong nodded heavily and said, "Being able to defend one side for the prime minister, my brother is not too incompetent." ”
"Yide, in fact, it's okay to talk about my side of things, but if you go to Chang'an, remember to be more careful."
"Although there is a prime minister in Chang'an City, after all, we have just settled in the court, and in the court of the Han Dynasty, there has always been chaos and conspiracy."
Zhang Fei said seriously: "As long as the prime minister is there, I am not afraid of anything!" No matter how dangerous the Han Dynasty is, I believe that with our brothers' skills, we will be able to survive safely! I'm still afraid that the court will be smooth sailing, and everything will be peaceful! ”
……
……
As Zhang Fei and Jian Yong guessed, Liu Jian did make arrangements for the affairs of Youzhou.
Zhang Fei left Youzhou, and Liu Jian decided to let Liyi and Gao Ran go to Youzhou to take charge of the military.
With these two people here, presumably there won't be any big mess in Youzhou.
In fact, Liu Jian was hesitant at first about the generals who returned to Youzhou to defend the town, and he felt that Gongsun Zhan was a more suitable person.
But after thinking about it, Liu Jian still vetoed the matter.
Gongsun Zhan's handling of certain matters was too radical, and the prestige of the Youzhou of the Gongsun clan in Liaoxi was too loud.
Gongsun Chan is a little arrogant, if he returns to Youzhou, he will cause something in the future.
Besides, Gongsun Chan is still his senior brother in name, I am afraid that if he is pampered and arrogant, no one in Youzhou will dare to do anything to him at that time, and he will be more likely to get carried away.
After thinking about it, it would be safer to let Ko Yi and Gao Ran go back.
And at this time, the news came from Chen Cang's side, Xu Huang had already stopped Hu Zhen who wanted to escape back to Liangzhou, and there were many fugitive sergeants who intended to return to Xiliang through Chen Cang, and sent someone to escort them back to Chang'an.
Hearing that Hu Zhen was captured alive, Liu Jian knew that the overall situation in Guanzhong was stable.
