13. The dark clouds weigh the city and the city is about to be destroyed
"Jian Shuo, how is the training of the troops? Do you have the confidence to produce some actual results?"
"Your Majesty, rest assured. Wherever your Majesty's sword points, our Xiyuan soldiers will complete your Majesty's orders even if they go through fire and water."
Jian Shuo was originally just an ordinary little yellow boy. The only thing that was different between him and his peers was probably his outstanding muscles. Yes, he might be considered to participate in a beauty pageant.
Meat.
Jian Shuo has been a smart child since he was a child. When he was young, he was surrounded by the legends of Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, Zhao Chongguo, Deng Yu and others as mentioned by the old people. This made him very interested in dancing with swords and sticks, and even continued to dance when he grew up.
I learned a little bit about the art of war for this purpose.
It's a pity that although Jian Shuo's family cannot be called poor, because he has to raise eight children, his life is still a bit tight. This means that Jian Shuo does not have enough money to obtain the nutrients to make his body strong. It is good to have enough food and clothing.
.
Fortunately, Jian Shuo was born in a good place. Although Shang County is located in the mountains, it still belongs to Jingzhao, one of the three auxiliaries, and belongs to the Gyeonggi region that many people dream of. So compared to many of his peers, he
There are more choices.
Through his father's efforts, Jian Shuo was able to enter the palace and become a physically handicapped eunuch. Although I feel sorry for Jian Shuo, this can reduce the burden on the family. If Jian Shuo does better, he may be able to subsidize the family. As for
Jian Shuo and his father actually never thought about calling someone as important as Cao Teng. After all, their family had neither wealth nor fame.
Although he has lost his symbol of maleness, and it seems that he can only live in this deep palace for the rest of his life, Jian Shuo has not given up on exercising his body, even if it makes him look a little different in the eyes of others.
But what I have to admit is that after several years of training, although his skills are still not as good as those of the guards who guard the palace, at least he appears to be more diligent and capable than the people around him, and he is quite popular with the superior eunuchs.
and appreciation.
Or the children from Shang County were protected by Shang Yang, the most famous celebrity in Shang County, the great jurist and reformer. They were born with their own unique vision and insights into the law, which enabled them to often use it skillfully.
a talent for oneself
Obtained some unexpected benefits. As a descendant of the virtuous minister Jian Shu, Jian Shuo seemed to have inherited a little of Jian Shu's ability to judge the situation, which allowed him to gradually move from an unknown and low-level eunuch to one of the big shots.
within the vision.
Of course, if there is no special opportunity, if he wants to get an enviable piece of the already allocated cake, Jian Shuo obviously does not have the status, nor the ability, nor the power. However, he undoubtedly
is a lucky man.
From the Xu Zhao Rebellion to the later Yellow Turban Rebellion, Liu Hong had been shocked by the poor performance of the county soldiers and the excellent performance of the powerful private soldiers. Although the private soldiers of the powerful were not enough to allow them to break through the prefectures and counties, only those who were willing to do so could
Inspiring and uniting several powerful forces, with the combat effectiveness of the county soldiers, I'm afraid there won't be much suspense about the outcome of the battle.
Of course, this is not what makes Liu Hong the most angry. What makes him most angry is the group of Xingyang thieves who are like loaches in the mud.
Liu Hong now knew clearly that the White Wave Yellow Turban Army, which caused headaches in all places, was mainly composed of the original White Wave Yellow Turban Army that was defeated by Li Shushi and the group of Xingyang thieves who fled from Henan to Hedong.
Regarding the Yellow Turban Army who originally belonged to Baibo Valley, Liu Hong really didn't take them seriously. Is it worth worrying about a group of guys who can be wiped out by Li Shushi's guards and local county soldiers? In fact, even Zhang Yi has strong jealousy
The guy with a strong heart can easily clean up this group of defeated soldiers. It can be said that they are actually a piece of loose sand.
However, when this plate of loose sand is kneaded together by gel, it is like a lion leading a group of antelopes. Although in Li Shushi's opinion, the most likely reason for a lion leading a group of antelopes is that the lion can eat antelopes anytime and anywhere.
He became lazy and bloated, and eventually lost all the hunting skills he originally possessed because of his comfortable life. But no matter what, the group of Xingyang thieves really left a very deep impression on Liu Hong.
Well, no one would feel comfortable with a little Qiang strutting by under his nose, especially when this little Qiang stole a piece of cheese that he probably liked under his nose and was ordered by his master to destroy him.
Xiaoqiang's cat has lost a few of his beautiful beards. Don't you think you are impressed by such a powerful existence?
Why don't I use a certain Jerry mouse as an analogy? You have to know that although Rui is not afraid of cats, you have to know that Shu
The overconfident and self-righteous American mouse knows the power of the Chinese one-dollar coin. I believe that a certain American mouse will have perfect coin back technology.
Okay, it seems to have gone too far. Well, this section must be cut off.
If the Yellow Turban Rebellion made Liu Hong pay attention to military affairs, then the appearance of the Xingyang bandits made Liu Hong completely lose confidence in the Northern Army in Luoyang. It happened that at this time, He Jin proposed to use the refugees in Henan to train
Liu Hong readily agreed to the new army's plan. However, how could such an army, on which Liu Hong had high hopes, be entrusted to He to increase his strength?
Therefore, Liu Hong turned his attention to the Zhongchangshi Group, which he trusted most, and Jian Shuo's fate also changed.
As mentioned before, Jian Shuo not only worked hard to exercise, but also taught himself some military skills. Although it was not much, he was still very valuable among a group of eunuchs. In addition, his low background made it easier for him to fall for Liu Hong's favor.
He felt grateful, so he eventually became a pawn used by Liu Hong to contain He Jin. Of course, it might not be just this.
Is Jian Shuo happy? Very happy, especially when the area of his old house has increased more than ten times, his fields and servants have increased countless times, and his little nephews can use the books he sent back to gain fame.
At that time, he had no reason to be unhappy.
It is precisely because of this that he was grateful to Liu Hong for giving him all this, and he vowed in his heart that he would die in repayment.
Naturally, Liu Hong liked such a loyal and somewhat incompetent subordinate, so Jian Shuo, who became the commander of the Xiyuan Army, also gained the power to monitor the commander of Sili. Even He Jin was almost killed by Jian Shuo.
Sent to the northwest battlefield.
But in front of Liu Hong, Jian Shuo was always a cautious but courageous and loyal subordinate.
"What do you think of Bian'er and Xie'er?" Liu Hong's face was full of exhaustion after passing out. Although he looked the same as before, he looked like he was drunk too much, but even he knew that it was time to explain the funeral arrangements.
It's time. Although this kind of thing is really cruel to an emperor who is not yet forty years old, he has to do it for the sake of the country.
"They all have His Majesty's blood flowing through them. Although they are still young now, they will definitely become the pillars of my man in the future."
Before the emperor's thoughts are clearly understood, this kind of Tai Chi must be played. Although there are a lot of rumors circulating in the palace, as long as there is no definite news, one cannot be too smart. Although betting at this time can get the maximum
However, for Jian Shuo, who already holds huge power, he obviously does not need to bear the corresponding huge risks.
"Why, are you still unwilling to speak your mind at this time? Aren't you and the guys outside making preparations?"
Liu Hong's words were very heart-wrenching, and Jian Shuo immediately knelt down and kowtowed. However, he was not as panicked as he appeared on the surface. There were only a few waves in his heart. No, in other words, he was already prepared for such a situation.
That’s it. That’s it…
"Everything Jian Shuo has is given by His Majesty. Jian Shuo's only wish is to fulfill His Majesty's wish..."
It seems that maybe, as the rumors said, His Majesty really has something on his mind. While speaking a lot of disgusting words to express his loyalty, Jian Shuo was thinking, because he could hear the emperor's words.
It obviously means something.
In fact, Jian Shuo is not an idiot. On the first day when the Xiyuan Army was established, he had already understood a certain possibility. After all, if he wanted Liu Bian to succeed to the throne smoothly, then the title of Colonel of the Xiyuan Army should be "Friendly".
A person from the general's side, but not a guy who didn't have many bright spots at that time except for his strength.
It's just that knowing this is of no use, because Jian Shuo wants fame but not fame, and merit but not merit. Everything is just based on Liu Hong's order, and this kind of thing is the most illusory. For his own future, Jian Shuo
Shuo didn't think too much and focused entirely on the construction and management of the Xiyuan Army, which was affirmed by Liu Hong, who had been observing secretly.
Even Yuan Shao and others who looked down on eunuchs had to admit in private that Jian Shuo was a difficult guy.
It is precisely because of his efforts that he has the qualifications to stand here today and the qualifications to fulfill Liu Hong's wish.
"Then, you are qualified to accomplish something. Remember your mission. Don't say what you shouldn't say, don't do what you shouldn't do, and don't think about what you shouldn't think. I hope you won't let me down. I also hope
, your luck is good enough. Okay, you go down."
With the tips bag given by Liu Hong in his arms, Jian Shuo's expression was very calm. Of course, only he knew what was going on in his heart at this time. But judging from the shaking of his calves, it seemed that
It shouldn't be very peaceful.
"My lord, I just received information that Dong Zhuo has led five thousand elite cavalry into Hedong, and his large army is stationed on the Tongguan-Mianchi line. In addition, there is one more thing..." This is a busy world, and no one can do anything about it.
Take some time off.
"It's really rare, Wen He. You actually hesitate sometimes. Tell me, what makes you so embarrassed."
Li Shushi didn't care about Dong Zhuo's movements, because even if Liu Hong asked Dong Zhuo to be his Bingzhou Shepherd, I'm afraid Dong Zhuo would just ignore it. After all, at this critical moment, it's better to grab what you can grab first. If you are too greedy,
I'm afraid it will cause indigestion and other adverse reactions. If it is more serious, it will cost many people's lives.
"Dong Zhongying would like to ask me to tell you: He wants to meet you. The location is up to you."
