Chapter 320: Arrangements for Zhao Gu
Zhao Gu fled all the way back to Luoyang, and almost the entire soldiers in Luoyang clearly knew the news of Zhao Gu's defeat, which naturally made the morale of the soldiers in the city fall to the extreme, even Zhao Gu himself completely lost the will to fight.
Zhao Gu doesn't say how strong his talent is, but in the end, in the Wang Mi era, he followed Wang Mi and became a general who could garrison a city by eating experience, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a small prince.
In such a situation, although Zhao Gu was defeated, he could somewhat gain some experience by recalling the situation on the battlefield.
But Zhao Gu recalled his night attack, and it can be said that there was no problem with either the night attack at the beginning or the strong attack.
But the soldiers on the other side were too strong, how on earth could they organize themselves in the dark night?
And now recalling the rhythm of the counterattack of the Han soldiers, they did not rush out rashly, but put on armor in the camp tent, took their weapons, formed a military formation, and then directly pushed away their own military camp and stabbed their own army with various weapons.
didn't even appear on the stage, but just relied on the instinctive reaction of the soldier himself to crush his night attack.
"How to fight this kind of army!" Zhao Gu couldn't help scratching his head, feeling that he was really lucky to be able to escape.
I thought that the night gave me the opportunity to attack, but to be more precise, it was the night that gave me the opportunity to escape!
Normally, Zhao Gu has seen a lot of soldiers, but this army gives himself real despair.
Regardless of equipment, organization, discipline, and especially the night attack, it could not cause chaos in this army, which made Zhao Gu not know how to win the other party.
Could it be that it relies on the defense of Luoyang City, which has been plagued countless times, but in the final analysis, Luoyang City is still guarded, and now the whole army knows that they have been defeated, and where is the determination to defend it.
"I really don't have a choice!" Zhao Gu sighed.
Originally, he wanted to get a little surrender treatment for himself, but now Zhao Gu understands very well, don't think about any surrender treatment, surrender honestly!
Zhao Gu originally wanted to show his idea of showing his strength, but was attacked by the army led by Li Ju and gave up.
After all, Zhao Gu knew that if he didn't surrender, he was afraid that he wouldn't even have the last bargaining chip in Luoyang City.
So the next day, Li Ju cleaned up the enemy troops that attacked yesterday night, and Zhao Gu decisively took the roster of his army and the household registration of Luoyang City, and ran over to find Li Ju to surrender.
You were the one who struck last night.
This strong-looking guy in armor is your subordinate.
Isn't it Zhao Gu last night that you plan to borrow a knife to kill someone, borrow my hand to kill the guy who chose to resist stubbornly in Luoyang City, and then come out and surrender yourself!
Shameless! Kind-hearted! Li Ju looked at Zhao Gu with very different eyes.
No wonder Ling first mixed under Wang Mi, then mixed under Liu Kun, and then jumped to Liu Cong, and then jumped to Liu Yao, tsk tsk, count the details of this guy to jump so many times, every time your boss died, but you didn't die, what kind of Lu in the horse, Zhao Gu in the people!
Although Li Ju's heart was full of complaints, he still accepted Zhao Gu's surrender.
After all, whether it was he who found out the information, or He Shenjun beside him, he carefully reminded Li Ju that Zhao Gu was a veteran who had followed Wang Mi, although he did not choose to follow Liu Tai, but he knew the old man in Liu Tai's army more or less.
Now that Zhao Gu has lost his way and returned to the prodigal son, he can't snub him, after all, no one knows where his thread can go.
As a general, Li Ju also knows that when it comes to the Wang Mi era, it is better not to pursue it more.
At least for the current self, the most important thing is to take Luoyang down, as for whether Zhao Gu surrendered or took it himself, it doesn't matter.
After all, the most important thing is to complete Liu Tai's task first.
And smoothly took Luoyang City, He joined the army calmly and calmly wrote it down in his own notebook, and on the 22nd, he surrendered and entered Luoyang.
After Li Ju took Luoyang, he immediately began to send soldiers to the surrounding villages to pacify him, and at the same time completed the settlement with Li Ju.
To be honest, although Liu Tai has not taken advantage of the situation to attack Luoyang in recent years, Luoyang can be said to be the most serious place in the Yongjia Rebellion.
Although Zhao Gu has been in charge for several years, he has maintained relatively basic rules in the end, so it has not yet reached the point where his bones are exposed.
But basically, except for the villages around Luoyang City that can quickly escape to Luoyang City to escape, most of the other villages are basically in a situation where there is no rooster crow for thousands of miles.
It can be said that the military register and the civilian register handed in by Zhao Gu together are only a little over 50,000 people.
You know, this was once the capital of the Jin Dynasty, but now all it has is ruins and nothingness!
Li Ju captured Luoyang, and began to collect the surrounding counties, and except for Luoyang, a city that can at least barely be called a strong city, there are basically no people in the surrounding counties, so it is really not difficult to take the surrounding counties.
Li Ju soon reported to Li Tai, and he won the checkpoints and counties around Luoyang such as Hangu Pass.
As for Zhao Gu, Li Ju directly packed Zhao Gu and sent it to Liu Tai.
For Liu Tai, it was just a matter of convenience to send an army of 10,000 people to take Luoyang while he was taking the Central Plains.
After all, he also needs to attack Chang'an, and he must take down the bridgehead of Luoyang.
It's just that if Liu Tai leads the army forward, then he is afraid that he will not have time to sort out Luoyang after attacking him, but now that he has taken Luoyang in advance, then he will be able to build Luoyang into a bridgehead in advance.
Then, after a little rest for a year, he sent troops to Chang'an.
Zhao Gu's surrender to Li Ju was almost a matter of course for Liu Tai, and he didn't care too much.
After all, the gateway to Luoyang is in the hands of Li Ju, Luoyang is almost unsafe, and Luoyang itself is in tatters, and Zhao Gu, the general who defends the city, is a very pure wall grass in Liu Tai's eyes.
After all, he is the standard to take refuge in whoever is strong, maybe there is a little bit of naΓ―ve nationalism at first, but if he really works for the pseudo-man, Zhao Gu will not resist, which makes Liu Tai feel that this guy's morality is similar to his own.
In such a situation, as long as Zhao Gu felt that he had no hope of victory, it was naturally very normal for Zhao Gu to surrender.
Therefore, in Liu Tai's eyes, there is neither a strong geographical defense nor a famous general in Luoyang, and it would be strange if Li Ju couldn't take down his own soldiers.
After all, he really wanted to give Li Ju a credit, and planned to slowly raise Li Ju or Huan Xuan to become a benchmark for generals.
For Liu Tai, a natural military operation is an imminent crisis for Yang Xianrong now.
The court situation that had been stabilized by Yang Xianrong was now discussed and offered by everyone.
"Queen Sheng'an, now that the crisis of the King of Han is at hand, we must first strengthen the defense of Tongguan, take advantage of this place, hold on to the King of Han, and wait until the Jin Court sends troops in the future, and we will try to plan one or two!" The wanderer said.
"That's it! Although the King of Han is strong, he only won the Central Plains this year, although he won Luoyang with the help of Yu Wei, but it is also whimsical to want to take my Da Zhao in a short time! Futai also stood up and insisted.
Everyone in the court looked at Youziyuan, who represented the military, and Futai, who represented his relatives and the Xiongnu clan, but they also understood that at least with the current power of Da Zhao, it was impossible to directly surrender Liu Tai.
At the beginning, if Liu Tai took Liu Yao and directly attacked Dazhao, then under the turmoil of the people's hearts, maybe the Han forces would surrender to Liu Tai, even if there were remnants of the Xiongnu clan, but the resistance would not be too strong.
But now after a few years of cultivation, Yang Xianrong has successfully stabilized the people's hearts and politics, at least for those in power, even if they know that Liu Tai vaguely has the power to sweep the world, but now he is occupying the land of Qiangqin, in this case, relying on the current Tongguan to face Liu Tai can still defend it to some extent.
This is like Jin Ting's confrontation with Liu Tai, and their hearts are more or less dependent on the benefits of Jianghuai and they have no worries about self-preservation.
At the same time, because Liu Tai allowed Da Zhao's people to come to take the imperial examination, then Zhao Guo would naturally arrange some family spies to use the opportunity of the scientific examination to spy on Liu Tai's reality.
Even if you can't know Liu Tai's military measures, it's good to know Liu Tai's policies, and see if you can operate and escape to Liu Tai's side to continue to be a powerful family.
And the policy implemented by Liu Tai, for alien races such as the Xiongnu, is the policy of destroying the country and exterminating the species, and for the wealthy families, Liu Tai's policy towards them is very harsh.
As for the benefits of Liu Tai's policy to the Han Dynasty and the benefits to the common people, even if they are the children of a family with national consciousness, under the concept of the Jin court governing the country with filial piety, they naturally estimate their own family first, and then take care of the so-called Han Dynasty.
So at least in the current situation, resisting Liu Tai is more or less politically correct.
At this moment, Prime Minister Zhu Ji spoke: "However, we need to contact the Jin Court, if we can attack Liu Tai together and echo each other, we may not have no chance of winning, so please send an envoy to the Jin Court to persuade one or two." β
Everyone couldn't help but talk about Zhu Ji's words, but everyone didn't have any objection to Zhu Ji.
Regardless of whether it is useful or not, send someone to the Jin court to try it first, although they don't expect to defeat Liu Tai, but no matter what, it's better than letting yourself out of the customs to fight.
After all, when Cao Wei won the land of Kyushu, Shu Han and Dongwu on the opposite side did not hold on for so long with the help of geographical advantages.
I don't want to be able to kill Liu Tai, I just hope to maintain the power of myself and others by relying on the geographical advantage.
After all, the area where he is now is Qiang Qin, and Qiang Qin didn't rely on the danger of the pass to resist the strong army in the world.
Therefore, after everyone discussed one after another, they immediately sent an envoy to detour to Shu and go to the Jin court to contact.
As for more, they want to come and go, and they still have to add more soldiers to make themselves feel more secure.
To tell the truth, if Liu Tai really came in and hit Chang'an City, then these people might kneel faster than one another.
But now Liu Tai has not even taken the Tongguan Pass, which is necessary to enter the pass, and it is unrealistic to want them to surrender.
It's just that Liu Tai didn't want to attack Chang'an at this time, after all, Liu Tai also knew that it was not easy to take that land in one go.
Now Liu Tai met with Zhao Gu first, and when Li Ju sent him to Liu Tai, he even emphasized that Zhao Gu was more or less a bit of a hindrance to the master, and all Zhao Gu's lords had more or less unfavorable endings, and asked the lord to make good arrangements.
Liu Tai saw the song sent by Li Ju, looked at Zhao Gu again, sighed, and said:
"Zhao Gu, you are also the old man who followed Uncle Wang at the beginning, according to reason, should I call you Uncle Zhao again?"
When Zhao Gu heard Liu Tai's words, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat behind him, and at this moment, he kowtowed to Liu Tai again and again:
"Deserved, deserved. The king loves it too much, and please call a certain Zhao Gu is. β
Liu Tai also sighed a little when he heard Zhao Gu's words, and said,
"I don't think Zhao Gu is an outsider, but you chose Liu Kun and didn't choose me, which really made me feel a little bit of mustard in my heart.
But you are the old man who followed Uncle Wang to conquer together, and now there are indeed not many such old people. β
When Zhao Gu heard Liu Tai's words, there seemed to be a little tear in his eyes, as if he also remembered the days when he followed Wang Mi and survived together.
can only say that those days were really not happy, but now that I recall it, it is somewhat less treacherous calculations and more struggle for survival.
Zhao Gu said to Liu Tai, "It's Zhao who has eyes and no beads, doesn't know the true dragon in the world, and the son of heaven of the Han family, but has today's encounter, and asks the king of Han to show him a clear way, and he will not live up to the king!" β
Liu Tai heard Zhao Gu's words and said, "You are the old man at the beginning, I won't give you four ways." β
Zhao Gu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Liu Tai's words, it was obvious that Liu Tai was thinking about the old love, not only accepted himself, but also gave himself four choices, which was naturally enough for Zhao Gu.
Liu Tai opened his mouth and said, "One is to go to Wang Sang, basically Uncle Wang's old ministers were all there, and you are not completely rootless when you get there, if you can make meritorious contributions in the future, you will naturally not be treated badly."
The second is to garrison the frontier, you are a veteran in the end, and now the border is not calm, especially north of Jinyang, someone needs to recover, if you have the heart, you can be a general, garrison the frontier for my Han.
The third is that if you disarm and return to the field, I can naturally give you wealth enough to live the rest of your life in peace, and you can also avoid war.
As for the fourth point, if you are interested in naval warfare, you can arrange for Tian Yu to be a vice admiral and develop in the navy. β
Zhao Gu listened to Liu Tai's words, but he couldn't help but ponder, it was obvious that Liu Tai really wanted to arrange himself, not fool himself.
So the first one to cross out decisively, I have a chance to live now, but it doesn't depend on the original brother who made the right choice and soared, if you look at it every day, it is better to kill yourself directly!
