At the end of the first month, perhaps the exchange of interests under the table had ended, and the foreign troops began to march towards Luoyang in batches.

The first to arrive was the Jizhou soldiers led by Hao Chang, a total of more than 4,000 people, who entered the city from Jianchun Gate.

At that time, Shao Xun was receiving a batch of equipment and consumables, and when he just returned to the barracks, he heard a joke that was not very funny: the Youzhou Raider went out of the city, and met the Jizhou soldiers who were entering the city, and the 4,000 people of Hao Chang's department were directly dispersed on the spot......

Shao Xun was dumbfounded after hearing this.

When the commander of the Ye soldiers, Xian Xiu, heard about it, he was ashamed and abnormal, and directly ordered the troops to be stationed near the city gate and not to make trouble.

Obviously, this order will make the Jizhou soldiers complain, but it is a good thing for the people of Luoyang.

Compared with the Ye soldiers, the western soldiers under the command of Zhang Fang did not have so many scruples, they swarmed into the city from the Ximing Gate, looted on a large scale, and the sound of crying was heard far and near.

Sima Yue, the king of the East China Sea, was very nervous, and while sending someone to ask for the edict of the Son of Heaven, ordering the western soldiers to stop looting and withdraw from Luoyang, he also summoned the generals of the forbidden army to discuss countermeasures.

The final result was to hold on to the main intersections and prevent the frenzied western soldiers from attacking the core area of Luoyang and the palace city. As for other places, ask for more blessings, Sima Yue can't help it, because the forbidden army doesn't listen to him very much.

The forbidden army is not easy to call, and the soldiers of the East China Sea Kingdom still obey the command.

On the twenty-sixth day of the first month, the four main generals of Mi Huang, He Lun, Wang Bing, and Shao Xun were called to Sikong Mansion.

Wang Dao, Dai Yuan, Liu Qia and other staff members were present, as well as court officials such as Gou Xi, the general of the forbidden army, Pan Tao, the squire of the Yellow Gate, and Yu Yu, the official of the department.

"Hao Chang's incident has become a laughing stock in the army, and many people say that foreign soldiers are not enough, and they regret it." Liu Qia did not squint and talked eloquently.

Shao Xun quietly looked at this shogunate Zuo Sima.

Liu Qia should be very annoyed that he failed to compete for lieutenant in the East China Sea. In fact, Sima Yue should still trust Liu Qia very much, otherwise with his family background, if he does not use his right to vote, Liu Qia will not be able to enter the officialdom at all.

"It's not a good thing." Director Wang frowned and said: "The soldiers of the forbidden army saw that the foreign soldiers were so vulnerable, and then thought of the previous battles and victories, or they had remorse. Sima Yi's side, who is guarding it now? ”

"The men of the Seventh Army."

"It's not appropriate, it's better to replace it with one of ours." After saying this, Director Wang's gaze paused on Mi Huang's body and said, "General Mi may lead his troops to take over Kim Yong City." If there is any disharmony, kill Sima Yi immediately, and the soldiers of the forbidden army will think about it. ”

Everyone talked about it for a while.

If the forbidden army repents, it is indeed possible to storm Kim Yong Cheng and release Sima Yi. It's just that in this way, where is the place to be placed? Where are the generals of the forbidden army who have jumped ship?

Sima Yue immediately became nervous.

If Sima Yi regained the support of the forbidden army, he would be dead, and his breath was a little unstable for a while, and he felt uncomfortable sitting there.

"Don't worry." As one of the only three outsiders present, Pan Tao, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, stroked his beard lightly, smiled lightly, and said, "Kill Sima Yi, why do you need to dirty Sikong's hands?" I see Zhang Fang as a cruel and murderous person, and he hates Sima Yi deeply, if he hands people over to him, he will definitely die. ”

Sima Yue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, squeezed out a little smile on his face, and said, "Pan Shilang's words are reasonable. Why don't you send someone to Kim Yong Cheng to send an order to send Sima Yi to Zhang Fang's camp? ”

"Nope." Pan Tao shook his head and said, "I have to let Zhang Fang take the initiative to snatch people away, so as not to damage Sikong's reputation." ”

"It's still Yang Zhong who is thoughtful." The smile on Sima Yue's face grew, and he saw that he called a servant, and after whispering, the servant left in a hurry, apparently going to interrogate.

"Zhang Fang, a person who leads beasts and cannibals, can actually ......" Sima Yue shook his head and sighed, not wanting to talk more, as if mentioning Zhang Fang more would make his mouth dirty.

Shao Xun, who was sitting behind Mi Huang, couldn't help but glance at Pan Tao more.

This unattractive old man is really ruthless, he uses such a knife to kill people casually, and his face does not change, and he thinks about it without leakage.

Could it be that he is a poisoner like Jia Xu? Perhaps, he will soon join the Sikong Shogunate, after all, it is not interesting for the court officials to do it - there is no saying between the staff and officials, and there is no such thing as who is superior or inferior, and some people even have to drill into the shogunate of King Zong.

"After talking about Sima Yi, let's talk about the situation in Luoyang." Sima Yue stroked his forehead with his hand and said in a helpless tone: "The Ye soldiers are okay, they only loot outside the city, but the western soldiers want to enter the city and loot the officials and people in the inner city, not only robbing money, but also killing people, we can't let them go on like this." ”

What is the result of laissez-faire? Sima Yue's prestige will be suppressed.

He will be trying his best to receive Sima Yi's inheritance, and there must not be too much "negative news", fame is still very important. After all, this world is becoming less and less, the prestige of the center is gradually being lost, and local power is being snatched by the big families step by step, and they still need their support.

Yes, the officials of the family in Luoyang seem to be weak, and a soldier can be tied up and killed, but they are only representatives of the big families of the counties in the capital. The foundation of the people is in the place, the manor is one after another, the land is longitudinal and horizontal, and there are thousands of private soldiers, which is their real capital.

If we re-investigate the population and the number of acres of land, we don't know how many yeoman farmers are left. Even the collection of taxes has to rely on people's noses, and most of what people show you is still "fake accounts", just a pleasure.

Sima Yue knew very well who he wanted to support.

"It's better to promote Zhang Fang to an official, and when you grab enough, you will naturally leave." Dai Yuan proposed.

Wang Dao remained silent and nodded slightly.

He actually hates Zhang Fang very much, and he doesn't talk about the rules at all. Killing and robbing at every turn, using human flesh to fill military rations, and defiling officials and ministers, but now there is really no way, Zhang Fang has an army of 50,000, and it is difficult for the generals of the forbidden army to support him, so he can only "coax".

"It's better to explain to Zhang Fang that if he is willing to withdraw from Luoyang, he will be promoted to the right general and Feng Yi Taishou." Liu Qia suggested.

"Yes." Sima Yue nodded, and added: "Let him kill Sima Yi first, and then withdraw from Luoyang City, and then he can be promoted." ”

There was no opinion.

Shao Xun was eye-opening.

It turns out that with 50,000 soldiers in hand, you can make the court pinch your nose and coax you.

I only have 500 soldiers, but the court will not coax me.

It's realistic.

"Sikong, I'm afraid it's hard to get my wish by relying on this alone." Gou Xi said suddenly: "The servant is willing to lead the troops and horses of the headquarters to the west, arrayed on the royal street, Zhang Fang sees it, or can see it and accept it, and retreat to the outside of the city." ”

Sima Yue was overjoyed.

Gou Xi is the first general of the forbidden army to take refuge, which is of great significance. This will take the initiative to take responsibility and share the worries of the Lord, how can you not like it? Sima Yue has made a decision in his heart, in the future with Sima Ying and Sima Hao, no matter what, he will seek a high position for Gou Xi.

He is good at using soldiers, can win battles, and has been up and down in officialdom for more than 30 years, and his qualifications are enough, so he is definitely the most suitable signboard.

Take Gou Xi's situation to show the generals of the forbidden army, follow me, and you can be promoted. Against me, nothing good.

"That's very good." Sima Yue stood up and said in a loud voice: "It's decided." Zhang Fang's affairs must be handled as soon as possible and without delay. ”

"No." Gou Xi responded.

Shao Xun was slightly envious.

The Luoyang Chinese Army originated from Cao Wei, and at that time there were five colonels, middle bases, and military guards.

During the Western Jin Dynasty, it became the left and right guards, the front and rear left and right armies, and the Xiao cavalry army, that is, the so-called seven battalions of the guards.

In addition, the Sima clan relied on the military strength outside the city to make a fortune, so the Western Jin Dynasty placed the Yamen army in the suburbs of Luoyang. Together, the two constitute the Luoyang Central Army.

The chief officer of the forbidden army was called "leading the army" in Cao Wei, and it was called the leader at first in the Jin Dynasty, and then it was changed to the leader of the army, and then it was changed to the leader of the army, and now it is called the middle candidate of the northern army.

During Cao Wei's time, the rank of Su guard gradually became an honorary position, such as Pei Xuan's death, he was posthumously awarded the rank of captain of Changshui.

What can Gou Xi be? Candidate in the Northern Army? Can Sima Yue help him to this position?

If it comes true, this is being used as a signboard, and it's a good life.

However, Shao Xun is not particularly envious.

The imperial court can let Gou Xi be the candidate of the northern army, and he can be taken down, after all, it is not his own army, you have to go down if you don't go down.

To some extent, Gou Xi is not even as good as the local tyrant who brought his own troops to join the army. Isn't it beautiful that people bring 500 slaves and maids to serve as soldiers, and they are the masters of the building, and they are all their own people.

"The forbidden army will also send someone to negotiate." Sima Yue said again: "Even if you don't want to move to drive Zhang Fang away, then you are optimistic that Ye Bing can always do it, right?" This is the thing—Josi, you do it. ”

"No." Dai Yuan got up and answered.

"Zihui." Sima Yue looked at Mi Huang again and said, "Hurry up the training, at the critical moment, you are still reliable." ”

"No." Mi Huang responded.

He was a little panicked, and subconsciously glanced at Shao Xun.

Yesterday, Xiao Langjun told him the truth, the upper army will not talk about it first, and the lower army will not be able to fight a field battle for a year and a half.

After listening to this, Mi Huang felt that his head was big.

More than 200 people were recruited from the army, and among the original 700 people, at least more than 200 people came from behind, not to mention a bunch of teenagers. It's normal to spend a year putting things in order, if you don't want them to collapse at the touch of a button.

As for the Shang Army, the 900 East China Sea soldiers are okay, and the more than 1,000 people in Luoyang City are a joke.

Mi Huang wanted to be ruthless, tear his face with He Lun, get rid of all those rotten people, and re-recruit Ding Zhuang and the rout.

Otherwise, if Sikong wants to move troops this year, will their 3,000 people go up or not?

up, it's just adding to the chaos.

No, it can't be justified.

In short, it is difficult to do.

Mi Huang's gaze fell on He Lun, flickering.
