After coming out of the governor's office, Gao Fei has been puzzled by one thing, that is, why Dong Zhuo raised his troops so quickly and gathered 200,000 soldiers and horses without taking half a month to a month.
Absolutely no chance of success.
Although Zuo Feng was said to be Dong Zhuo's spy in the court, in this era without the Internet or any modern communication facilities, even if Zuo Feng got any breaking news a day or two in advance, it was absolutely impossible for him to call Dong Zhuo or play a video chat
And so on. This means that Dong Zhuo knew in advance that He Jin was going to kill Empress Dowager Dong and Liu Xie, so he prepared 200,000 troops in advance and was waiting at the border of Liangzhou. Once that time came, this
Bian will immediately raise his troops.
Judging from the news that Yuan Shao killed He Jin and ordered Dong Zhuo to retreat, the person lurking in the dark and secretly controlling the entire incident should be Yuan Shao. Gao Fei made a bold guess that Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo colluded together to plot to remove He Jin.
He believed that this was the most reasonable explanation. Yuan Shao was He Jin's confidant and could even influence He Jin's thoughts. Once such a figure secretly colluded with Dong Zhuo, He Jin could be removed without any effort.
The situation was just as Gao Fei suspected: Yuan Shao used Dong Zhuo, but underestimated Dong Zhuo, thinking that Dong Zhuo was a chess piece in his hands, but he did not expect that Dong Zhuo also used Yuan Shao as a chess piece in order to control the power of the Han Dynasty.
, Dong Zhuo did not hesitate to fall out with Yuan Shao, accused Yuan Shao and He Jin of being co-conspirators, and continued to march into Luoyang with the slogan of "Qingjun side".
Along the way, Gao Fei carefully recalled all his guesses. He felt that his guesses were roughly the truth of the matter. After returning to the mansion, Gao Fei immediately called over Tadun, Liu Fang, Sun Li, and Xu Miao.
Then he ordered: "Now that the world is in chaos, Dong Zhuo has entered the capital with 200,000 Liangzhou soldiers. It is an extraordinary period now. Tadun, you quickly go to Shanggu to replace Zhao Yun and lead Shanggu's 5,000 soldiers to garrison the Great Wall."
Liu Fang, go to Daijun to inform Zhang He and ask him to lead troops to garrison various Great Wall fortresses, while staying there to assist Zhang He in guarding Yudaijun. Xu Miao, go to Zhuojun and ask Taishi Ci to bring all 5,000 soldiers and horses back to Jicheng.
, you will stay in Zhuojun and replace Taishi Ci as the governor."
"No!" Tadun, Xu Miao, and Liu Fang replied together.
Seeing that he had no mission, Sun Li took the initiative and asked: "Lord, what about me?"
"Hurry up and go to Changli County, let Qiu Liju be the prefect of Changli, and ask him to select 50,000 strong Wuhuan cavalry, each heading up the valley. Daijun will send 5,000 cavalry to obey the orders of Ta and Zhang He, and let Wuli ascend.
He led 10,000 cavalry to assist Xian Yufu in guarding Yuyang. In addition, he asked Nanlou to go to Shanggu and Tadun to jointly guard Shanggu, which he was familiar with. He also asked Qiu Liju to send 30,000 cavalry to station in Shenyang, and Pang De replaced Jia Xu.
To guard Shenyang, you help Pang De stay in Shenyang, and at the same time ask Xun You, Jia Xu, and Hua Xiong to arrive at Jicheng within half a month. It has not rained in the past two months, so you take the Binhai Road to Changli, and at the same time ask someone to tell Tian
"Feng, Hu Yu, guard Liaodong and Lelang County. It's a long way to Changli. I asked you to go just after you came back. It's really hard on you. You can set off now." Gao Fei walked to Sun Li and patted Sun Li's cheek.
Shoulders, heavily.
After Sun Li heard this, he felt that the burden on his shoulders was really heavy. He had to run so far all of a sudden, but he did not refuse. He immediately clasped his fists and said: "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will change horses but not people. We will try to arrive in a short time."
Changli."
Gao Fei nodded and said: "Okay, you all hurry up and do it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tadun, Xu Miao, Liu Fang and Sun Li immediately left Gao Fei's mansion, mounted their horses and went to convey Gao Fei's orders.
At this time, Lou Ban came over. He heard what Gao Fei said and could feel the anxiety on Gao Fei's face, so he comforted him: "My lord, the fastest way from Jicheng to each county will take one day."
It’s time, my lord, it’s better not to be too anxious, the sweat on your face is oozing out.”
Gao Fei smiled at Lou Ban and said: "It seems that I didn't teach you in vain, and I actually feel sorry for you. In half a month, I will go to Chenliu with Mr. Zhou Mu, you can stay here and take care of yourself."
If you don’t understand something about reading and writing, go ask some teachers in the city for advice. This is called..."
"I'm not ashamed to ask." Lou Ban answered the question with a smile.
Gao Fei said: "Very good, apply what you have learned. You are indeed smart. In a few years, when your father is old, I will let you serve as the Shanyu of the Wuhuan people, and use what you have learned to govern Wuhuan."
common people.”
Lou Ban hesitated for a moment and said calmly: "The Chanyu has always been the strong one. My eldest brother Tadun is quite talented in martial arts. I'm afraid others won't choose me to be the Chanyu."
Gao Fei shook his head and said: "You are the son of Qiu Liju's main wife. Although Tadun is the eldest son, he is not the legitimate son. Besides, I will do my best to help you ascend to the position of Shanyu. Tadun
He will follow me in the army from now on, and I will not let him return to Wuhuan again. Now Wuhuan has been merged into one, and all the tribes are happy. Your father has also ascended to the position of Shanyu.
The governor of Changli County, General Ying Lie, you have to work hard, and his position will be yours from now on."
Lou Ban said gratefully: "Thank you for your kindness, my lord. I will definitely try my best to learn it well in the past few years, and I will live up to your lord's expectations for me in the future."
Gao Fei said: "Well, it's good if you understand. Go study. I'm going to inspect the city."
"promise!"
Two days later, Gongsun Zan led 4,000 white horse followers and 6,000 elite infantry to Jicheng. He only took a look at Gao Fei and Liu Yu, and then left Youzhou with his troops and went to Chenliu.
On the third day, Zhao Yun arrived at Jicheng alone. Taishi Ci also led five thousand cavalry back to Jicheng. After Gao Fei personally greeted them, he asked them to join forces with the troops and horses he had left in Jicheng, and asked Zhao Yun to
Taishi Ci each commanded five thousand cavalry and conducted necessary training.
Two days later, Liu Bei, who was already the governor of western Liaoning, came to Jicheng with Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tian Yu, Jian Yong and two thousand soldiers and horses. Liu Yu personally met with Liu Bei and asked Gao Fei to accompany him.
At the banquet, Liu Yu held the cup with both hands, raised it high, and said loudly: "After the rebellion of the Wuhuan people in western Liaoning, the number of households has dropped a lot. In addition, the original land in western Liaoning has been divided into Changli County, so
Western Liaoning is a small country with few people. I have really worked hard for you since Xuande took office."
Before Liu Bei had time to answer, he heard Zhang Fei catch the conversation and said carelessly: "There are quite a lot of unscrupulous people in that place where birds don't shit. It's no wonder that it's not hard for me, the long history of Liaoxi, to manage it!"
"Third brother!" Liu Bei scolded softly, "You must not be rude in front of me!"
Zhang Fei took a sip of wine and stopped talking.
Liu Yu laughed loudly after hearing this, and immediately asked: "Xuande, who is this strong man?"
Liu Bei hurriedly apologized and said, "I'm sorry to make you laugh. This is my sworn brother. My surname is Zhang Mingfei and my courtesy name is Yide."
Liu Yu took a look at Zhang Fei and saw that Zhang Fei had a leopard-like head, a beard, bright eyes, and some chest hair exposed on his broad chest. He nodded with satisfaction and praised: "Xuande has such a sworn brother.
It is truly a blessing.”
Gao Fei sat next to Liu Yu, glanced at Zhang Fei who was not caring and was drinking alone, and then glanced at Guan Yu who was sitting firmly next to Zhang Fei with a red face and long beard and squinting eyes, and said to Liu Yu: "
My lord, Zhang Yide is an enemy of ten thousand people. Sitting next to him is Guan Yu, whose courtesy name is Yunchang. In terms of kung fu, he is on par with Zhang Yide. They are both very rare talents. Now that your lord is going to Chenliu to join the alliance, such talents are indispensable in the tent.
, why not let the two of them stand beside you, to show the bravery of our Youzhou soldiers in front of the heroes of the world."
After hearing this, Liu Yu was very touched and put a smile on his face, but then he shook his head and said to Gao Fei: "Ziyu, although I am a lover of talent, I can't take away people's beauty.
"
"Your Excellency, you are overly worried. Liu Xuande is now the Governor of Western Liaoning, Guan Yu is the Chief Registrar of Western Liaoning, and Zhang Fei is the Chief Historian of Western Liaoning. As a shepherd of Youzhou, and also the Chief Sima of the Imperial Court, all officials in Youzhou will naturally
He became your subordinate. Although Liu Guan and Zhang are sworn brothers, as the saying goes, there is no feast that never ends, and brothers do not have to stay together all day long. A man should make contributions. Your Majesty will Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
If the two of them stay by your side, wouldn't it also give them a chance to make meritorious deeds? I think Xuande, as the elder brother of the two, will definitely hope that his brother will have a good future and will not stop him." Gao Fei.
First he said something to Liu Yu, then turned to Liu Bei and said, "Brother Xuande, do you think what I said is right?"
Liu Bei's palace was quite deep. Even when he heard Gao Fei's intention to separate him from Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he didn't show any displeasure on his face. Instead, he agreed: "General Gao is right, you can control the clouds and wings."
Keeping the two of them by your side is also a kind of cultivation for them. As the elder brother, I will naturally not stop them."
After hearing this, Liu Yu said happily: "That's great. I just lack such a strong general around me. Although I already have Ziyu, after seeing Guan and Zhang today, I feel very excited.
Dong Zhuo was born in Liangzhou and had a lot of military skills. If you want to kill him, you must have strong generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. What's more, Dong Zhuo has many Liangzhou generals under his command. It is also the time when the princes gather to make an alliance.
When you are famous all over the world. Xuande, I heard that you are also a clan member of the Han Dynasty. I wonder if this rumor is true?"
When Liu Bei heard this, he immediately became energetic, nodded, clasped his fists and said: "Master Qi, I am the great-great-grandson of His Excellency Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, and the queen of Prince Jing of Zhongshan. The blood flowing through my body is indeed that of the royal family. It is a pity that my family has fallen into decline.
Forced to make a living by selling mats and shoes, thanks to the help of fellow clan member Liu Deran, I was able to survive those difficult years with my mother..."
Everyone was moved to tears when they saw Liu Bei talking. Only Gao Fei muttered in his heart: "This Liu Bei is really good at acting. I must play him to death!"
