Chapter 63: Three Rivers and Five Schools
The strategy was determined, and the Long Xiang army was subdued.
In order to show his trust in Duan Xuan, Chen Zhou stayed directly in the barracks of the Long Xiang Army, but that night, the people who had sent people to contact Han Sui and Ma Teng finally came back.
"Sir, Ma Teng and Han Sui agreed."
Cao Zhen walked into Chen Zhou's tent with the news.
Chen Zhou was not surprised by their agreement, it was still the same sentence, now the Han is still there, and the Han family is still there.
They all want to get a real name, so that the people of Liangzhou and other small warlords obey and stand firm in their position in Liangzhou, and the canonization of the Son of Heaven is the best justification.
"Did they say, who should be the pastor of Liangzhou?"
Chen Zhou asked.
Cao Zhen shook his head and said: "Not for the time being, the news just says that they agree first, and they can send troops to cooperate with us at that time, but how to send troops has not been explained, and they have not given us a specific response." ”
Chen Zhou thought for a while, and suddenly smiled: "They did this, just to agree temporarily, after all, no one has ever seen the blank edict of the Son of Heaven on my hand, and I am worried that if I don't agree, I will miss the opportunity, if they don't negotiate who will be the pastor of Liangzhou, that edict of the Son of Heaven may become something they fight for." ”
"So Liangzhou contradicts itself and fights with each other, can we pick up the cheap behind our backs?"
Cao Zhen asked curiously.
The edict of the Son of Heaven is still very important and weighty.
They are not like Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, and they do not have such a deep background, what they lack is justification.
With a name, it is also easier to recruit troops.
"If we fight for the edict, we do have a chance to pick up the bargain."
Chen Zhou was silent for a moment as he spoke, and then said, "But I don't think they will be stupid enough to really fight, and they will definitely compromise with each other for the time being." How to pick up this cheap, I will talk about it later, the most important thing at present is to solve Li Dao and Guo Yan first, subdue Huang Fuyi, and then I will arrange the plan to send troops to Liangzhou. ”
Since they were unwilling to take the initiative to mention how to send troops, Chen Zhou could help them arrange it.
Cao Zhen admired Chen Zhou's plan more and more, since Chen Zhou said so, then there must be no problem in the follow-up, they can just wait for the arrangement.
Next.
Morning.
Chen Zhou got up and asked Duan Xuan to start camping westward, leaving Huayin, and going to the edge of Chang'an to get ready.
More than 10,000 troops, quietly acting.
Perhaps Li Wei was overconfident, thinking that the stationing in Chang'an was very stable, and he didn't even send scouts to the outside world, and Chen Zhou and they also eliminated the means to deal with scouts.
Passing by Bashui, it was already two days later.
There was a forest on the edge of the water, and they hid in it.
In order not to be discovered, the army is not allowed to cook on fires, so it is necessary to prepare enough dry food and clean water in advance, lurk in the woods, and then plan how to move next.
"Where is Huang Fuyi's military camp?"
Chen Zhou walked up the mountain and looked in the direction of Chang'an.
At this time, the sun is about to set, and the sunset in the west reflects the tall city of Chang'an.
The barracks outside the city are all in sight.
You can also see soldiers walking back and forth.
"The soldiers outside the city are all from the emperor."
Duan Xuan followed Chen Zhou's side and explained: "And the people who guard the inner city in the city are the Xiliang soldiers brought by Li Dao by his side, and the people outside the city are all the soldiers of Huangfuyi's Sanhe Five Schools. ”
Hearing this, Chen Zhou said with a smile: "It seems that Huang Fuyi's treatment is not as good as that of Xiliang people, you will persuade Huang Fuyi to return tomorrow, and there is another reason." ”
"Good proposal from the Overseers."
Duan Xuan understood this reason as soon as he heard it.
Chen Zhou said again: "Okay, let's go back first!" ”
Return to the camp in the woods.
Chen Zhou called Cao Zhen and Dian Wei over.
"General Cao, my firearm, you have seen how it is used, although it is troublesome to reload ammunition, the sound is like thunder."
"Go see Huang Fuyi tomorrow, you bring this, in case anything happens, hit the ammunition on Huang Fuyi."
"That thunderous sound, absolutely they have not been in contact with, can scare people, scared them so that they dare not approach, Lao Dian followed, when the enemy was frightened, Lao Dian immediately protected General Cao to kill out of the enemy camp and rushed back here."
"Got it?"
Chen Zhou admonished.
The flintlock pistol was solemnly handed over to Cao Zhen, which was also his arrangement.
The loud sound of the flintlock pistol can deter many people.
For a fierce man like Dian Wei, the short time of shock is enough for them to rush out, and if it is not enough, reload the ammunition and fire a second shot to continue the shock.
Cao Zhen took the fire gun, a little distracted.
It turns out that Mr. is not just about simply letting himself take risks.
"I'm fine."
Dian Wei patted his heart and said.
The iron halberd in his hand is already hungry and thirsty.
Cao Zhenzuo said: "Sir, please rest assured, I will definitely complete the task, I guess I won't need a firecracker." ”
"I can't use it for the best."
Chen Zhou said again: "Lao Dian selected ten elites with good strength, you have a good rest tonight, recuperate, and you can win Chang'an as soon as tomorrow." ”
"Good!"
They didn't doubt Chen Zhou's plan at all.
Seeing them leave, Chen Zhou relaxed a little, and at the same time hoped that he could really convince Huangfu Yi.
However, thinking that Li Dao in history was indeed killed by Duan Xuan, he was a little relieved that there was definitely no problem with the plan.
The next day.
Dian Wei selected ten elites, followed Cao Zhen, and then led by Duan Xuan, and rushed to the outside of Chang'an City.
Huang Fuyi and Duan Xuan have a friendship, and they will soon be able to meet Huang Fuyi.
For the people brought by Duan Xuan, Huang Fuyi didn't care and arranged to sit aside.
"Why did Zhongming come to me?"
Huangfu Yi laughed and said, "Why don't you come to Chang'an too, and we fight side by side together, wouldn't it be better?" ”
Zhongming is the word of Duan Xuan.
Li Wei and Guo Yan both had the intention of wooing Duan Xuan, wanting to get the elite of Long Xiang guarding the northwest and strengthen their strength.
But Duan Xuan didn't say anything, and no one took refuge.
"I came this time to convince Jianshou of something."
Duan Xuan didn't go around in circles, and said straight to the point: "Jianshou has ever thought about why the five schools of Sanhe can only be in Chang'an City, but the Xiliang Army can defend the inner city?" ”
The treatment in the inner city and outside the city is certainly not the same.
The welfare of the inner city is better, and there are more benefits that can be reaped, while the outside of the city is hard, if the enemy comes, the outer city must rush to the front, and it is necessary to fight, and the first soldiers to guard the outer city are also used.
The five schools of Sanhe stationed outside the city are equivalent to Li Wei's thugs.
The Xiliang soldiers guarding the inner city are Li Wei's personal soldiers and cronies.
"What do you mean by this sentence?"
When Huang Fuyi heard this, his face sank.
This is not to reminisce about the past, he can judge that Duan Xuan has come with some tasks.
"I mean I want to help Jianshou see clearly how Li Dao treats the soldiers of the Five Colonels of Sanhe."
Duan Xuan sighed, and said: "The former Sanhe Five Schools were the elite of the Han Dynasty, but unfortunately they were first ruined by Dong Zhuo, and now they are ruined by Li Dao, what have you become like now?" Jianshou didn't help Li Dao fight the enemy, but he couldn't even mix with Li Dao's cronies, so he could only be stationed outside the city, and I didn't feel worth it for you. ”
