Chapter 273: Eldest Son County
"Yide" shouted at the wall in the distance, more than the shouting of two thousand soldiers, Zhang Fei heard the sound, quickly turned his head, and saw that it was Liu Bei standing on the city wall, said a few words, and quickly ran to the city wall.
"Big brother, what are you looking for?"
"Yun Chang has sent a letter," Liu Bei finished speaking, and handed a letter to Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei didn't reach out to take it, but asked.
"The second brother said it in the letter, you just tell me."
"Yun Chang defeated the Yellow Turban Army in Hedong. beheaded the leader of the Yellow Turban and made a great achievement. The imperial court has appointed Yun Chang as the hussar general, and Zuo Zhonglang will also serve as the governor of Hedong," Liu Bei said with a smile.
"That's great, this time I Zhang Fei can also raise my eyebrows, big brother, I know this Hedong Lieutenant, but what kind of official position is this Hussar General's Mansion Zuo Zhonglang" Zhang Fei asked excitedly.
"The Hussar General's Mansion Zuo Zhonglang will be slightly lower than the Yu Wuguan Zhonglang. Compared with Zhang Liao, the righteous brother of General Zhenbei, the Hun Zhonglang will be slightly higher. With 2,000 stones, you can command an army. After Liu Bei finished speaking, the loss in his eyes flashed.
"Really, that's great. The second brother is strong in martial arts, and it is a matter of time before he becomes an official, but it's a pity that General Zhenbei didn't let me go out of the horse, otherwise I would have pacified the Yellow Turban in Hedong earlier" Zhang Fei excitedly paced back and forth on the wall.
Liu Bei sighed in his heart, Guan Yu has been reused now, and he Liu Bei is still white, how to let Guan Yu follow him everywhere when the time comes, what Liu Bei doesn't know is that all this is deliberately done by Wang Gang. Wang Gang knew that it was impossible to win over Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the only thing he could do was to divide them, and the best way was to fulfill Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, so that the two of them could be as independent as possible, even if they would follow Liu Bei at that time, they would be unwilling.
Especially Guan Yu, if Guan Yu can gain a foothold in Hedong, then he is very reluctant to follow Liu Bei everywhere again. After all, it would be great to be a general in your hometown.
"Yide, Xi Taishou said, General Zhenbei is here to go to the party, let us go to the eldest son to discuss the military. I'm afraid I'm going to send troops to Hedong this time, and then our three brothers can meet again" Liu Bei saw that Zhang Fei's mood was a little more stable, and said again.
"Really, that's great, let's go, let's go, I'm going to have to get out of the station this time"
After Zhang Fei finished speaking, he pulled Liu Bei and ran towards the pass.
Huguan is only a hundred miles away from the eldest son, and the fast horse can be reached in half a day.
Changzi County is the county of Shangdang County, and it is located in the middle of the Jinnan Plain. The land was fertile, with a population of about 200,000, and Wang Gang ordered the population of the three counties in the Jinzhong Basin to be moved to the south, causing the population of the eldest son county to surge by more than 100,000. The sudden influx of people caused the land in the county seat of the eldest son to skyrocket, and Xi Zhicai was very busy with it. Fortunately, Xun Yu arrived and helped him allocate materials, so he didn't cause a big turmoil.
Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu stood at the west gate of the eldest son county, they had received the news that Wang Gang and Zhang Liao would arrive in the eldest son county today, so the two of them waited at the city gate early.
The flow of people at the West Gate of the county seat of the eldest son is not very large. Although the West City Gate is the closest way to Taiyuan. But the mountain road is narrow, the road is rugged, the general businessman still likes to detour through Huguan, and then pass through Jingcheng Pass into Taiyuan, the official road is relatively wider.
Seeing more than ten fast horses galloping towards them, Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai hurriedly took two steps forward.
"I've seen General Zhenbei"
Wang Gang hurriedly dismounted, helped the two up, and said with a laugh.
"How dare you drive two gentlemen to greet you"
Tens of thousands of people entered the county seat of the eldest son, and along the way, Wang Gang carefully inquired about the situation in the county seat of the eldest son, and walked around the city twice before coming to the government office.
"Changzi County can be so stable, thanks to the two gentlemen" Wang Gang saluted Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu.
"The general is serious, this is the duty of the lower officials, but Wen Ruo has worked hard and helped a lot," Xi Zhicai hurriedly said.
He is now the Taishou of Shangdang County, so he naturally knows that all this is being promoted by Wang Gang behind his back. It was also from that moment that his thinking changed fundamentally from before, before he was only attached to Wang Gang, and now he recognizes Wang Gang as the master.
"Let's not waste time on complimenting each other, since General Zhenbei is here in person, there must be another war" Xun Yu stroked his beard and said with a smile.
He and Wang Gang are also very familiar, so naturally they are not so restrained. For coming to the party this time, it is also Xun Shuang's meaning.
"Wenyuan, open the map"
Zhang Liao agreed, and spread out a map made of sheepskin on the low table.
Wang Gang pointed to the place in Hebei and told a few people about the situation in Hebei, and their faces became a little unsightly, but they didn't expect the situation in Hebei to deteriorate so much.
"I want to use troops against Hebei, I don't know what the two gentlemen think"
Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu both fell silent, and after a while, Xi Zhicai glanced at Zhang Liao before asking carefully.
"The general asked Wen Yuan to lead the troops to Hebei, I'm afraid this matter is a little inappropriate."
Wang Gang was stunned for a moment, and then quickly shook his head.
"It's not Wen Yuan, Wen Yuan is here with me this time. Chu Yu has something to do, just let him be a guard"
Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Liao was too important in Wang Gang's camp, not only to command the more than 10,000 soldiers in Taiyuan, but also to take into account the safety of Yanmen County.
"That's really hard Wenyuan, not only to lead the army to fight, but also to take care of the guard" Xi Zhicai made a joke.
"I wanted to stay with the general every day, but the general wouldn't let me. He was going to come to the party, and I was not at ease, so I followed. The two gentlemen don't care about me, I'm not interested in fighting the Yellow Turban Army."
"Who is the general going to let lead the troops to Hebei" Xun Yu asked, in fact, he already had the answer in his heart.
"Let Liu Chang envoy go, there is no danger to Shangdang for the time being, there are hussar generals and Guan generals on the east side of the river, as for the Xiongnu in the north, when Zhang Liao returns to Yanmen, he will set up a force in Biguantun to deal with Shangdang, so I want to take this opportunity to crack down on the Yellow Turban in Hebei." It's best to drive Zhang Yan back to Montenegro."
Wang Gang has been thinking about this matter for the past two days, and originally wanted Zhang Fei to stir it up. Later, it was decided to send more people to stabilize the situation in Hebei.
"Liu Bei is a person who has a great plan, once he is released like a hidden dragon into the abyss, the general will still think twice," Xun Yu said after a while.
"It doesn't matter, Liu Bei and I are not in direct conflict, now that chaos is coming, if he can dominate one side, he will also remember today's feelings. And my goal is to merge the whole of the state and the Loop, and that's what we're going to think about. As for the Central Plains, whatever they are" Wang Gang said with a smile, who Liu Bei is, he naturally knows that it is impossible to recover, so it is better to let him go.
