Speaking of which, Li Shushi had absolutely no goals for this trip. Apart from establishing a base in Dunhuang that could provide assistance at any time, he did not intend to show his presence in Hexi. After all, this was Dong Zhuo's power.
scope.
But with the appearance of Han Sui, the situation changed greatly.
Compared with Dong Zhuo, Li Shushi really didn't like Han Sui. After all, compared to Dong Zhuo's boldness, Han Sui was too ruthless. Maybe it was his own experience that made him a little paranoid, but Li Shushi was not psychological.
Doctor, as long as he knows that Han Sui makes him feel worse than Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, two guys who are so dark to the core.
Therefore, the latter two are the real politicians, and Han Sui is still far behind in terms of level.
Because of Han Sui's appearance, Zhangye became no longer peaceful. Because of Han Sui's appearance, the Huns in Yanze rushed out from their hometown. Also because of Han Sui's appearance, Li Shushi was given a pretty good opportunity.
An opportunity that even if he wins Hexi Dong Zhuo, it may not mean anything.
After all, compared to Li Shushi, a guy who had surrendered to the Han Dynasty and made many meritorious deeds, Han Sui was still an uneasy but exploitable traitor in Dong Zhuo's eyes. If Dong Zhuo's troops really couldn't cover Hexi, then Dong Zhuo would rather
It would be better for Li Shushi to manage this place than it would be for Han Sui's power to expand again.
Perhaps Hexi can get rid of its current embarrassing situation under Li Shushi's governance.
Of course, these are all Li Shushi's conjectures. As for whether the reality is as smooth as he imagined, only God knows.
In fact, Li Shushi also knew that if Dong Zhuo did not harm himself within two years after arriving in Chang'an, then with the disbandment of the Kwantung Allied Forces, Dong Zhuo would have enough troops to deal with Han Sui, an opponent who had made him quite embarrassed, even if he was restricted by many
people.
However, this will not shake Li Shushi's determination to accept Deng Cheng's proposal to resolve the chaos in Hexi.
Yes, if only Han Sui was behind him, maybe Li Shushi would eventually choose to go straight to Dunhuang to solve the problem in the Western Regions. At worst, he would turn around and lead his troops to slowly deal with Han Sui. Even if Dong Zhuo died, among the main generals under Dong Zhuo, they would not be the same as Han Sui.
With only Fan Chou as his best friend, there were many who resented Han Sui. Jia Xu could form a "Han Sui encirclement network".
Anyway, Li Shushi believed that as long as he was willing, it would not be too difficult to leave Han Sui some trouble in Hexi.
But the problem is that now Li Shushi has fallen into it.
The Zhang Ye Zhang family, an ally of the Huang family in Jiuquan, has been completely wiped out by Li Shushi. Although there is a lot of turmoil within the Huang and Zhang families, they are also closely related. Li Shushi's act of cutting off an arm has completely put him and the Huang family on opposite sides.
And there is also a Qu family among them.
Many people know the relationship between Qu Yi and Li Shushi. Han Sui may not do anything for Li Shushi's sake, but if he is made aware of the secret discussions between the Qu family and the Huang family, Han Sui, who feels threatened, will definitely not let his
Beside the bed
There is such a restless bomb. So from the moment Qu Yi appeared on the battlefield and finally took refuge with Li Shushi, Li Shushi had to think about his safety. For the sake of Qu Yi's friendship, and also for the control of Hexi.
If the Deng family intends to make up for the power left behind by the Zhang family in Zhangye and there is a vacuum of power, then Qu Yan's target is Jiuquan, and everything left by the Huang family in Jiuquan, which is bound to disappear.
Even if his ability is worse than that of Qu Yi, Qu Yan is not willing to spend his life in obscurity. Li Shushi's arrival is undoubtedly a very good opportunity. Over the years, he has also accumulated a group of like-minded people. Now it is up to him to show off his skills.
good opportunity.
Even if it fails, there will be no complaints.
Besides, at least this is more likely to succeed than cooperating with an unreliable family like Huang Ke.
"What about Xu Yi, the governor of Jiuquan? Will he be willing for our forces to penetrate into Jiuquan?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhou Mu. Prefect Xu is just dissatisfied with the powerful people in the county who allow his family members to do evil. If Mr. Zhou Mu can restrain his subordinates to abide by the law, Prefect Xu will not say anything. After all, in places like Hexi,
The place is big
Every family has to make a living, as long as you don't go too far and make everyone complain too much. Prefect Xu can be considered a good person. Mr. Zhou Mu will know it only after dealing with him once. Maybe he will also
I will become Lord Zhou Mu’s assistant."
As for Ma Ai, the governor of Dunhuang, there is no need to ask, because Li Shushi still holds an imperial edict in his hand. If Ma Ai is not willing to cooperate, he can be asked to retire and return to his hometown. As for who to appoint in the future, it is entirely Li Shushi himself.
That's right.
"Then can that person named Zhang Tai be trusted?"
Although Ma Ai, the governor of Dunhuang, could ignore it, Zhang Tai, who had become a vaguely powerful leader of Dunhuang, could not help but attract Li Shushi's attention. After all, this was not Hedong, but Hanoi. It was right under Li Shushi's nose. What happened quickly?
It can be done very quickly. That was Dunhuang, thousands of miles away from Jinyang. When Li Shushi received any news, the day lilies were already cold.
Not to mention discussing and solving it in an orderly manner.
Didn't you see that Li Shushi had to run quickly as soon as he realized that Wusun's situation was not good?
Not to mention that Dunhuang is a very important connection point for Li Shushi's plan - it can not only help the Western Regions to block threats from Xiliang and even the Central Plains, but also can support problems that arise in the Western Regions at any time. Therefore, only by building Dunhuang well,
Only then could Li Shushi continue to operate the Western Region Protectorate with confidence, instead of facing the dilemma of Ban Chao leading dozens of Han people and hundreds of Shule people in Panlu City. Even as a Chinese, his ambitions did not end there.
.
"The Dunhuang Zhang family, where Zhang Tai lives, originally had a high status in Dunhuang. Their family was one of the most famous poetry and calligraphy families in the area, and had marriage relationships with many famous and prestigious local powerful people. But later on
Because Zhang Ranming used his own merit to move part of the family to Hongnong, the remaining Zhang family descendants gradually centered on the Guangzhi Zhang family, and Zhang Tai is the current head of the Guangzhi Zhang family. This man is a quite old man.
He is a hot character. He can be said to have contributed most to the Zhang family's ability to become the leading family in Dunhuang in a short period of time. Although many of his actions were quite outrageous when he was young, the older he gets, the more stable he seems to be, and the more majestic he is to the court.
Since Mr. Zhou Mu is acting according to the will of the imperial court, Zhang Tai should not be an obstacle to Mr. Zhou Mu. If he handles it properly, it is very possible that he can become his help."
"Is that so? This makes it hard to start..." Li Shushi said to himself while listening.
"In addition, Zhang Tai also has two sons who are also extremely outstanding. The eldest brother Zhang Gong is smart and wise. Some people even say that he will be more outstanding than his father in the future. The second brother Zhang Hua, although not as good as him in academics Brother, but he likes to wield swords and sticks very much. I think he will be a good general in the future. Although this Wen Yiwu is still young, if nothing unexpected happens, the future of the Zhang family is worth looking forward to. Now These two people are under the command of the prefect Ma Ai, so Mr. Zhou Mu might as well have more contact with these two little guys. Zhang Tai is very attentive to their cultivation."
"It is indeed a good idea. In this case, Deng Cheng, please write a letter for me, requesting Zhang Tai to send troops to consult the remnants of the Huang family, and by the way, you can reveal some information about us, such as our purpose and the reasons for our actions."
"Yes, since Mr. Zhou Mu has the emperor's order, I think Zhang Tai will not refuse your kindness."
"Fengxian, please leave this operation to Zilong. You and Wenhe will follow me to visit the Jiuquan prefect."
"He's just a little tycoon. This kind of trash fish can't arouse my interest yet. Just think of it as a rest. Anyway, there are many enemies in the Western Region. I hope they won't let me down."
Zhao Yun just smiled at Lu Bu's speech. This kind of dismissiveness was like throwing a bone to a beggar on the roadside, so Zhao Yun would just laugh it off. The others didn't say anything because of Lu Bu's strength and status. He also clenches his fists and bites his teeth.
Of course, even if Lu Bu was very interested in this battle, Li Shushi would not leave it to him, not because he was overqualified or anything, but because Zhao Yun was careful enough and would not subconsciously relax like Lu Bu when he saw that his opponent was not up to par. .
"What we have to do must be done thoroughly. Zilong will go back to pack his bags now and leave with Qu Yan's men in the middle of the night. Don't let a single Huang clan member escape. If there is any resistance, shoot them to death. These Hexi powerful men are all closely related to the Hu people. There are so many connections, and letting go of one of them will most likely cause a lot of trouble. We don’t have that time! By the way..." Li Shushi turned to look at Deng Cheng, who was thinking about how to write the letter, and asked : "Deng Cheng, do you have anyone familiar with the geography of Jiuquan?"
"Yes, you can find it immediately if you need it."
"You don't have to give it to me, just take someone to find Zilong directly." After giving instructions to Deng Cheng, he looked at Zhao Yun: "The action must be secretive, the hands and feet must be nimble, and you must not be merciful, otherwise it will only bring about greater harm. trouble."
"Lord, don't worry, Yun knows the importance."
"Well, I feel confident when Zilong does things."
This is the reason why Li Shushi must choose Zhao Yun instead of Lu Bu. Although Lu Bu is far better than Zhao Yun in terms of ruthlessness, he is not afraid of ten thousand, just afraid of the worst. God knows if Xiaoqiang, who can't cheer up, will miss one with just a yawn. people.
Of course, the above statement is somewhat exaggerated.
In fact, Lu Bu also had another role, that is, to act as a door god for Li Shushi's trip to the Jiuquan Prefecture. Once his negotiation with Xu Yi did not achieve the expected results, maybe Li Shushi could use a few door gods to carry out some beheading operations.
Even if he didn't want this scene to happen.
When there were only four people left in the room, Li Shushi, Lu Bu, Jia Xu and Deng Cheng, Li Shushi could finally ask the question in his mind:
"Deng Cheng, are you familiar with the Huns in the Yan vassal state?"
PS: Today is the day that the famous French mathematician Joseph Lagrange passed away. This was an outstanding mathematician, physicist and astronomer. He used mathematical methods to calculate the Lagrange point. He must have been interested in machine warfare.
Children's shoes will be heard about.
PS2: Today is the day that former Polish President Kaczynski died. Well, although we don’t need to set off firecrackers or anything like this for this anti-racist and anti-Russian guy, we won’t have a moment of silence for him. Regarding the death of this president, Poland
People have always thought it was a Russian conspiracy - from what we can tell, you are obviously not the same as the old Maozi.
The president is going to attend a commemorative ceremony that no one wants to invite you to. The most important thing is to plan a surprise attack without informing you. According to the style of the old man, ahem, we didn’t say anything... Anyway, we knew it.
If Chinese fishing boats enter Lao Maozi’s waters, they will definitely not show mercy...
PS3: Today is also the day when Comrade Chen Yun, the famous old leader with a series of titles in our country, passed away. Well, the story between him and the core of the second generation leadership and the story between these two people and the famous Shanghai-style iron-fisted prime minister really makes the former
As a young and frivolous person, this is an eye-opener for me. As for the detailed content, please refer to the Hong Kong version of "XO Ji" biography. That's it for now, without further ado...
