Volume 2 The Rise of Jingzhou Chapter 242 Cao Mengde's Means (3)
"Zhu Ling is from Hebei, and he took refuge under Cao Mengde early.
If he was just a lone figure before, whether it was Cao Mengde or the other generals under Cao Mengde, it would not have any sensory impact on him Zhu Ling.
Even during this time, although he Zhu Ling was also quite meritorious, he did not really win the eyes of the world.
was valued by Cao Mengde and stayed in the rear, first, he was not allowed to fight with the old master, and he was a person from Hebei who would not be bewitched and co-opted by the families in Yuzhou, Xuzhou and other places.
In this way, his rights are becoming more and more important, and Cao Mengde is also quite kind to him. ”
When Jia Xu said this, he looked at Liu Xie, whose face was getting heavier and heavier, and the smile on the corner of his mouth slowly began to bloom.
"But here's the problem, if Cao Mengde's situation has always been like this, then it is just a model of undoubted monarchs and ministers.
But he, Cao Mengde, is not His Majesty after all, nor is he such a sovereign.
So after the two wars of Guandu and Cangting, the situation was completely different, in short... The power of Hebei suddenly broke out!
In this battle, the overlord of Hebei, Yuan Ben, was gone, but Hebei's power did not disappear.
On the contrary, as the important land of Hebei that supported Emperor Guangwu of Shizu to seize the world step by step, there is no need to say much about its wealth.
For so many years, Yuan Benchu has been a soft character, although the people... But the life of the Hebei wealthy family is still very good.
Otherwise, Yuan Benchu would not have used the Yingchuan vein of Yuzhou to restrain them everywhere
But now this Hebei line is different, the two wars made them lose a little, but they also began to invest in Cao Mengde's command.
The most important thing is that these two wars directly led to the fluctuation of the hearts of Hebei people, but it was not easy for them to transfer to Cao Mengde at this time.
In short, they need a springboard, or someone with some status under Cao Mengde to help them get to Cao Mengde... ”
"This person is Zhu Ling!" Liu Xie finally understood at this time, and at the same time, his heart was also abrupt.
"No wonder ... It's no wonder ... ”
Liu Xie never understood why Zhu Ling was able to go to the position of the rear general!
The four generals on the left and right are different, the four marches and the four towns, and what are the four flats.
This is an official position that Dahan had early on, and it is the most primitive and real heavy general before Dahan!
But he, Zhu Ling, is indeed a hard worker... No, toil!
He, Zhu Ling, is a hard worker!
After so many years of fighting, Zhu Ling has not really served as the main general of one party.
Look at the other three generals of the same period as him, the former general Xiahoudun, the president of the 26th Route Army.
Former general Zhang Liao, in the first battle of White Wolf Mountain, he Zhang Liao was famous in northern Xinjiang, and the first battle of Xiaoyaojin made him famous in Jiangdong, but he could stop children crying at night!
As for the other records, it is needless to say.
In addition to Zhang Liao, there were also Yu Ban and Le Jin in the same period.
One has the head of five good generals, can be called a veteran with many arms, and was entrusted with important tasks by Cao Mengde.
The other took the lead in every battle and can be called the first general of Cao Ying.
These people ... To be honest, even if it is a good accumulation, it should not have reached such a point and has not reached a high position.
After all, even Xu Huang had already been established by Cao Wei and was named the right general for his efforts to persecute Guan Yu.
And Zhang He... In the end, he was just a general of the Western Cavalry, which is very revealing.
Zhu Ling is He De, how can he kill in this group of people!
You must know that in this era, Cao Mengde in this period is really a bright star.
Among the generals of the inner family, the Xiahou brothers, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Chun, the five sons of the generals with the surname of the generals, and the quasi-reserve Zang Ba.
In addition, Feng Kai, which one of the road moves is not meritorious?
Yan Rouxian Yufu also used to sit on one side, and although Liang Xitian Yu was not able to recruit others, he was also a famous person.
This... Zhu Ling's exploits are not small, he is also very hardworking, he is indeed a famous general, but he is not enough!
But after Jia Xu's words came out, Liu Xie understood the truth.
"Zhu Ling is a springboard, today's Hebei wealthy family, today's Hebei first-line generals, they are just like the people of the Central Plains who rushed to Yuan Shao before the official crossing.
I heard that after the Guandu was fought that year, Cao Mengde searched out countless letters from Yuan's original camp.
All of them were words of surrender sent to Yuan Shao by various forces in the Central Plains.
Back then, Yuan Benchu was able to receive it, and this Cao Mengde was also able to receive it.
But if you want to let such an unknown letter come to Cao Mengde's hands, you need a sufficient person to introduce it.
And this person naturally became the person around them, relying on him to unite together.
Zhu Ling... ”
"It seems that Your Majesty has understood why Cao Mengde wanted to let the Euphorbia attack so frantically... Jia Xu's face showed a teachable look on his face at this time.
Looking at Liu Xie's expression, he was also quite satisfied.
After finishing speaking, he even walked directly to the map and showed the place of Luoyang.
"If the old man's expectations are good, then Cao Mengde will definitely wait for the outcome of the war in this place!"
"Luoyang!" Liu Xie looked at the name under Jia Xu's finger, his eyebrows couldn't help but rise, and he couldn't help but smile a little when he looked at that place.
"Interesting... It's really interesting ... He was actually in Luoyang... Why? ”
"This battle has a lot to do with it, and he must make His Majesty's forbidden army lose its deterrent power, if the halberd is not enough.
Or if the old man appeared earlier with his soldiers and horses, then he would have sent more soldiers and horses at once.
At this point, Cao Mengde must be on the battlefield in person, or near the battlefield, otherwise wait until he receives the news.
I'm afraid I'll have already killed back to Tongguan and entered Guanzhong. ”
"Hmmm... And then what? ”
"Secondly, Cao Mengde's battle is not just for us, don't forget that the old minister once said it to His Majesty.
The real purpose of this Cao Mengde is still Hebei.
The battle between him and His Majesty was to warn His Majesty that he had not yet used the elite Qingzhou soldiers under his command and the real warriors of a hundred battles.
Relying on just one army to almost cut His Majesty off his horse, this is a deterrent and a threat.
The second is to take the opportunity to weaken the Hebei soldiers, and the old minister has already gone to see the corpses and asked the prisoners.
They are all soldiers and horses of the Hebei lineage.
Although there are also Xuzhou soldiers and horses of Wei Xu, Song Xian, Hou Cheng and others, as well as Huainan soldiers and horses led by Han Hao.
But in the final analysis, what really fought with His Majesty and made His Majesty suffer heavy losses was the Hebei elite that Zhang He, Gao Lan and others brought to Cao Mengde back then.
At the beginning, Cao Mengde even thought of killing all of them to alleviate the danger of military rations.
It can be seen that although these people are strong, they are not so irreplaceable in Cao Mengde's heart, and it can even be said... These people are dispensable in Cao Mengde's heart.
It can even exist without it at all! ”
Using them in exchange for Liu Xie's forbidden army Yu Linwei is simply a big bargain, of course he Cao Mengde is willing!
It's just that when Jia Xu said this, Liu Xie was really unwilling.
"It seems that my weight is really... Nothing! ”
When he said this, Liu Xie's face was really a little ugly, and it could even be said to be quite embarrassing.
He would never have thought that at such a time!
When he just returned from a big victory, he became a dispensable existence in the eyes of others.
It's just the kind of piggybacking.,Even if he's accomplishing something with this.,But after all, it still feels very.。。。。 Disgusting!
Jia Xu couldn't say anything about this.
After all, there is no need for him to say that Liu Xie himself actually understands that their current problems are simply outrageous.
Cao Mengde is not unexpected, and he will have a smooth road ahead, and then he is ready to receive the whole world.
But his Liu Xie's problem has just begun.
To put it mildly, whether Liu Xie's life can be saved in the future depends on the fortune of God!
Why?
Once he occupies the land of Yongliang, God does not need much, and natural disasters have been sent down in the land of Yongliang and Sanqin for two consecutive years.
He, Liu Xie, will immediately be counterattacked by the land of Yongliang and the land of Bingzhou.
Those aliens and outcasts who have no food can easily form a group of hundreds of thousands of rogues and raiders to come out and find trouble with him.
At that time, even if he fought to the death, he had nothing to do with the world.
The final result is nothing more than being eaten and wiped clean by Cao Mengde.
A desolate place... Which of the two of them, Ma Teng and Han Sui, doesn't have the ability to eat here?
But as long as they can fill the stomachs of that group of people, do they have to wait until Cao Mengde comes to receive Yongliang?
Isn't that a joke?
"Hey... After scolding, Liu Xie also reacted, then sighed directly, and then looked at Jia Xu and continued.
"The forbidden army Yu Linwei in this battle was almost wiped out, and everyone was injured in the end.
I asked Elk Wei to count it a little, and there are only a few hundred people who can follow me in the future.
Without the forbidden army Yulinwei, it is really necessary to transfer back Liu Ye's Huainan soldiers and horses to garrison Chang'an.
After that, the state will also be reorganized.
And the halberd warriors were almost emptied by me, and in order to fill Zhang Hegaolan's soldiers and horses, Cao Mengde would also make some compensation for them.
And this back and forth Euphorbia was swallowed under Cao Mengde's command, and the two generals in Hebei who also had the same prestige became Cao Mengde's new favorite.
After doing this, Cao Mengde's next step... It's about to attack Hebei! ”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Then let's go back to Guanzhong... This battle has nothing to do with us... ”
"It's not that it's not unrelated, Cao Mengde may not have thought that there is another person by His Majesty's side who can fight his way out of this desperate situation...
