Chapter 111: I'm a fair person, I'll say a fair word
Guo Jiayan said, looked up at the sky slightly, his hands behind his back, and a few strands of hair hanging down from his temples fluttered.
If I didn't say this deliberately, it was really a better place in Xu County; Second, I also tearfully borrowed money to buy a mansion.
Guo Jia thought silently in his heart.
Inside the tent, the birds were silent, thinking about whether it was feasible, but Cao Cao suddenly remembered something, and looked up at Zhang Han inexplicably.
Speechless for a moment.
If I'm not mistaken, he seems to have purchased a lot of real estate, mansions, and slaves in Xu County to reclaim ownerless land.
If the capital is set in Xu County, it will continue to expand and seek prosperity in a few years.
Zhang Han secretly went to Xu County to buy these, did he have a judgment a long time ago?
But now is not the time to think about it, Cao Cao ignored Zhang Han, looked at the map spread out on the case, and after many considerations, it was indeed Xu County that was the most suitable.
Soldiers and horses can be deployed all around, and it doesn't matter if the imperial city is handed over to them temporarily, because their soldiers and horses are hoarded and stationed outside, and they can enter the city at any time.
In addition, for the security of the inner city, there are Quartet Lieutenants to maintain law and order, and the lieutenant can be placed to coordinate the Beijing division in the city and prohibit thieves; arrest criminals and try prison cases; Jingshu Tunwei, temporary expedition, blade management.
Lieutenant, that is, Zhijingo, this official position can be held by one's own people, and there is no need to worry about each other.
And the Imperial City Guards, the Internal Affairs Office, the palace people, etc., can be slowly dispatched to convert.
Cao Cao breathed a long sigh of relief and said in a deep voice: "Yang Feng and Han Xian were originally thieves, and escorting the Son of Heaven to return to the east is also to gain fame. ”
"These two people have attracted tens of thousands, and they have already returned, and today at daylight, His Majesty ordered them to quickly go to Luyangdong and wait there."
"In this way, if we have no plan, we will settle in Luyang."
"Feng Xiao said that they are thieves, and they will definitely not obey the edict, why?"
Guo Jia stood up, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, his expression was slightly proud, and he said calmly: "Returning to the lord, the two of them were originally thieves and generals, although they have merits, but Yang Feng and Han Xian have both attached themselves to Li Dao for Bai Bo, and Li Dao has made trouble, he has been so tossing and turning, his heart is uneasy." ”
"Those who are uneasy urgently need to be appeased, but the Son of Heaven did not lead them closer, but reused Dong Cheng to protect him, and the three of them must be suspicious of each other in their hearts."
"Those who are restless are like rabbits, and they can be allowed to flee from the wind."
"Jia is sure that there is no need to do anything, just stop the letters and forms they sent during this period of time, and do not respond to anything."
"On the day of the trip to Luyang, send the front army to speed up the march, the cavalry run wildly, the two thieves must be panicked, suspicious and unpredictable, so they should be able to flee or attack, if they escape, then our army will occupy Luyang, and dispatch troops and horses to be distributed here, if they are in strict formation, there are signs of ambush counterattack, immediately inform the Son of Heaven, Yang and Han have rebelled, immediately diverted to the east, and went straight to Xu County."
Guo Jia's right hand and middle finger stretched out from the wide sleeve and pointed at Xu County, which extends in all directions and has abundant waters, which makes Cao Cao deeply agree.
"A good strategy, how transparent it is to control people's hearts, interlocking, and exhaustive, worthy of filial piety."
Cao Cao did not hesitate to praise his words, which made Guo Jia chuckle and surrender his hand, and retreated from his position complacently.
Zhang Han quietly gave a thumbs up.
Guo Jia nodded indifferently, with an unfathomable appearance, the expression on his face was very tense, and he was very good at being a forced king.
But now that he is in high spirits after offering his strategy, he is crazy thinking about poetry in his heart, and he can't think of a poem that can be equivalent to "When Xu is the first in the world" or "I am born to be useful, and my daughter will come back when I am gone".
For a while, I couldn't help but feel a little decadent, and after all, it was a little bit worse.
But if he was praised just now, he chanted the sentence "I once promised to be the first class in the world", and I felt very ashamed.
After all, Bo Chang was also there...... He doesn't have the same mind as the lord, and he can be so heroic and magnificent when he reads second-hand poems, as if he wrote them himself.
Tui, shameless.
When will I get to this state?
Whether it is Zhang Han's self-proclaimed casual copying of quatrains, or the lord's fighting stars, Guo Jia is very envious.
And he always felt out of place with them because he was not shameless enough.
……
A few days later, Cao Cao secretly sent troops and horses to set up a guard in the southeast, and stopped three waves of sentinels sent by Yang Feng on two small roads and one main road along the way.
For another three days, five waves of sentinels were stopped.
After that, until the 10th day, no cavalry came to deliver the letter again, and almost all the letters stopped were written by Yang and Han themselves, which were secret letters.
Most of the content of the letter was a request for merit, telling about the difficulties of resisting Guo Yan before, and then reporting that Li Dao and Guo Yan had retreated to Xiliang.
A few letters conveyed some information that Cao Cao was quite interested in.
First, Yang Feng asked for credit for his fierce general Xu Huang, and wrote in detail his great achievements in resisting Li Wei's army.
"Hmph, 2,000 soldiers and horses, resisting tens of thousands of Li Dao, for 16 days, there is a famous general."
"Actually, he led the troops sternly, set an example, like an arm and a finger, so that the upper and lower desires were the same...... If this is the case, it should be a good general. ”
Cao Cao spoke highly of this.
Second, it is to ask for food, and in this letter, not only ask for merit, but also want to ask the Son of Heaven for grain and grass for the army, because after they arrived at the Luyang garrison, they did not dare to disturb the local people, and the officers and men in the army had complained because of the shortage of grain and grass.
As for the grain and grass, Cao Cao was transferred from Yingchuan, and it would not pass through Luyang, they had too many garrisons and needed a lot of food supplies, otherwise there would be chaos.
These two points are enough to show that Han and Yang are very anxious now, and they have become ants on a hot pot.
In the next few days, they did not send any more sentinels, but they were afraid that they were already suspicious.
On the twelfth day, after the discussion was settled, Cao Cao led the army out, and at the same time he had already sent Xun Yu and Feiqi back to Yanzhou together, and the post stations along the way had prepared the horses for transfer, and I believe that they had been prepared, and when the Son of Heaven arrived, he could announce it to the people.
When traveling, Gao Shun and Cao Chun led the cavalry first and explored the road ahead, but after marching for several miles, after the team pulled away, they suddenly broke away from the brigade and accelerated the march.
After more than ten miles, he almost ran wildly, with great momentum and constant scolding, and let go of his hands and feet and went straight to Luyang.
When the sun was up, Yang Feng received the news from the secret whistle and the bright whistle, and he was shocked into a cold sweat.
His long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly, his heartbeat was difficult to calm down, and for a moment the coolness went from the top of his head to his back, leaning over, slamming the case, and said loudly to Han Xian, who was short and rude-looking, in front of him: "I'm going to be calculated!" ”
"There was no response to the letters sent before, and we must have been detained in Luoyang, and the Son of Heaven did not reply to promise food, so we were self-consumed."
"At this time, there are two possibilities, one is that the Son of Heaven wants to get rid of you and me, and he no longer wants to be restrained by the old generals of Chang'an, he has never trusted you and me."
"The second is that Cao Cao is not a good type, and he will set up posts along the way to intercept us and the Son of Heaven from making speeches and asking for merit, intending to dominate the holy driver, if so, he wants to get rid of me."
"No matter what, this Lu Yang can't stay any longer," the two of them were also the leaders of hundreds of thousands of chaotic armies, and the experience of fighting for so many years has accumulated into an almost instinctive intuition.
Knowing that it was difficult for Lu Yang to survive, he planned to leave this place, after all, this place was about to reach Cao Cao's territory.
Han Xian frowned and shook his head, and said: "Cao Cao is only a few thousand steps riding here, what is there to fear, we will attack and kill the past, welcome the Son of Heaven back, and then tell him the reason in detail, maybe he can turn around, and even if His Majesty wants to get rid of you and me, can't he be controlled by him again?" ”
"Well," Yang Fengding pondered for a long time, and secretly affirmed Han Xian's words, if he returned to Chang'an at this time, he might not be able to survive.
Hongnong and Hedong counties were originally prosperous and had many families, but now they are almost destroyed by the war.
Only by repelling Cao Cao, and then taking the Han Emperor in his hands, guarding Luyang and waiting for the rescue of the surrounding princes, when the time comes, the Son of Heaven is in hand, and the edict can be used to let the other princes have a legitimate reason to jointly attack Cao!
They did not believe that the Son of Heaven could command the world, but they believed that the princes would not miss the opportunity to unite to remove a male lord.
So Yang Feng ordered all the soldiers and horses to abandon Luyang and march, take the initiative to meet Cao Cao, and save the Son of Heaven.
……
In the guard of honor marching to Luyang, Cao Cao returned from the front army, accompanied by hundreds of cavalry, and Zhang Han was in the ranks.
These black-robed cavalry and heavy-armored cavalry were very fast and resolute, and almost all of them looked at each other angrily if they were obstructed and questioned.
The guards guarding Liu Xie originally only had five hundred people left in Dong Cheng, and now they are both respectful and afraid of Cao Jun.
The fear is mainly the deeds of Dian Wei's defeat of Lu Bu, and they have only heard of this deed, unlike those Confucian scholars, who can hear more comments and understand more subtleties.
Therefore, in the eyes of these soldiers who have just entered the Kanto region, Dian Wei is very famous, but Zhang Han's fame cannot be compared with it for the time being.
In addition, there are dozens of soldiers who can be called soldiers in the honor guard, dozens of personal soldiers who are the brother of Queen Fu, and more than ten people who are led by the Tiger Ben Feather Forest Army.
They are no longer considered soldiers and horses capable of fighting, and their companions crossed the Yellow River and dispersed when they went to Hedong from Hongnong.
How could the rest of these people resist the horror of Zhang Han's black-robed armor.
After all, more than a month ago, it was this black-robed armored cavalry god soldier who descended from the sky to rescue the Southern Huns.
Before arriving at the car, the Son of Heaven was frightened, hurriedly opened the curtain of the car, and stared at Zhang Hanwen in horror: "Aiqing, what happened suddenly!?" ”
Zhang Hanyu immediately hugged his fists and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Yang Feng and Han Xian are reversed!" The former army explored the road to the vicinity of Luyang, and was led by two people to rush and kill, with heavy casualties! ”
"Don't go to Luyang again!"
"How so? Impossible, absolutely impossible! Liu Xie didn't speak, Dong Cheng next to him directly denied it, he knew that Yang Feng was a person, although he was cunning and rejoicing, but it was impossible for him to rebel at this time.
You must know that at this time, there is only one foot away from the reward from the main hall.
They have spared a lot of white waves, isn't that what they are for?
Why shoot yourself in the foot? Dong Cheng could see at a glance that this was Cao Cao's treacherous plan! I definitely don't want to go to Luyang!
No wonder he agreed so simply at the time, I thought he was truly loyal to the Han family and was willing to endure humiliation for His Majesty.
Unexpectedly, there was a plan to retreat into advance! To create this critical situation, the only way to do this is to follow his intention to enter Yingchuan in the east!
Traitor, traitor!
Zhang Han's face froze, he looked at Dong Cheng blankly, and then at Liu Xie, and sighed in a sad tone: "The soldiers of our army are fighting hard in front to protect Your Majesty. ”
"If General Dong doesn't believe it, he can't argue with a hundred words, why don't you lead the troops to mediate?"
"I, I ......" Dong Cheng was stunned, I have a fart soldier, he immediately looked at Liu Xie, and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, there must be some misunderstanding." ”
"What misunderstanding can there be?" Cao Cao glanced at Dong Cheng coldly, "Yang and Han are two thieves and wolf sons, and they were originally classified as Li Dao's generals, but now they are rebelling, but they are just taking advantage of our laxity, secretly having different intentions, and want to follow the example of Li Dao and Guo Yan to try Your Majesty again, do you want Your Majesty to enter the wolf's den again?" ”
Cao Cao's cold words made Liu Xieru fall into the ice cellar, and the whole person seemed to fall to the cliff, and he never landed on the ground, and there was a panic spreading in his heart.
"Cao Mengde! How could I have such thoughts, but Yang Feng and Han Xian guarded His Majesty all the way east, but it was also a credit to the horses, how could they rebel at this time!? ”
"Hmph, if everything can be as common sense, why would Your Majesty suffer for many years of grievances," Cao Cao was also slightly angry, and the reproach in his words was quite strong.
Dong Chengzheng was about to persuade again, after all, he felt that the Son of Heaven had spent more time with him, and he was still a relative, so His Majesty should listen.
At this time, Zhang Han's face was straight, his fists were hugged and these big people were faced, his eyes were moved, and he said sincerely: "Your Majesty, all the princes, you are a fair and upright person in the next question, and your Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty has no two hearts, all the way, sacrifice your life to fight in the lower part of the world, and save Your Majesty from fire and water!" ”
"Let me be fair, since they were stationed in Luoyang, Yang and Han have never come to see Your Majesty, if they are not related, why is this so?"
That's right! I'm the Great Han Attacker! Zhang Hanxin said, but he still maintained an indignant and aggrieved look on his face.
"Alas!" Cao Cao looked up to the sky, looked sad and indignant, and said: "For Your Majesty and the princes, I almost lost a talented person in the country!" ”
"How can you be unreasonably suspicious and break the heart of loyalty to the monarch and the country!!"
Cao Cao drank heavily, filled with grief and indignation, beating his chest painfully, and his face was full of disappointment.
Liu Xie looked at the blood stained on Zhang Han's body in a daze, and suddenly realized that he was also the one who really went through the fight to protect my eastward journey.
Why aren't they loyal ministers?
"Dong Aiqing, there is no need to say more," Liu Xie immediately made a decision and waved his hand to stop Dong Cheng.
Then he turned to Cao Cao and Zhang Han, and said solemnly: "I already know the hearts of the two Aiqing, now please march quickly, don't let the soldiers in front die in vain!" ”
"As for Yang Feng and Han Xian, after they settle down, we will find out the reasons and then discuss the punishment for crimes."
"Your Majesty Shengming!!"
Cao Cao immediately put away his grief and indignation, turned around and led Zhang Han to the lower collar in a majestic manner, and saw that the roots of Dong Cheng's teeth were about to be crushed.
Cao Mengde is a real cunning villain! It is by no means the benevolent gentleman that Dong Zhao said!!
Hateful!
The guards and horses led the guard of honor to the east, while Cao Cao finally freed his hand and led Zhang Han back to fight.
Of course, he will not give these two people a chance to find out the situation in the future, taking advantage of the fact that the two sides are fighting at this time, a big war has already started, and there is no need to leave room for each other.
Cao Cao personally led his troops and horses, commanded 5,000 cavalry to fight outside Luyang, and met Yang Feng's weak soldiers with an elite division.
The foot soldiers are involved, the cavalry staggered into battle, the archers pave the way to harass the enemy, and the commanding generals are like arms and fingers, advancing and retreating freely, as if they are controlled by themselves!
Half a day to kill the blood-stained river, corpses all over the field, more than 4,000 kills, Zhang Han and Dian Wei for the sharp soldiers, in the chaos of the army to get orders, interspersed with the battlefield, a blow to break the Chinese army to cut the battle flag.
After killing Yang and Han, they retreated to Luyang City, and soon fled from another city gate, and the rest of the troops surrendered.
Among the generals, there is Xu Huang.
