Chapter 22 Tigers and wolves also stand in the middle
Jia Xu took a group of women back to his home in Luoyang where he had lived for many years. After sending away the soldiers from the Prime Minister's Mansion who came to see him off, he immediately summoned his eldest son Jia Mu, who had grown up and was crowned.
"Sir, are you still the same as before?" Facing his father who looked obviously gloomy today, Jia Mu couldn't help but be a little cautious.
"Yes." Jia Xu sat in the hall of the house, lowered his head and responded softly. "But there is no need to search for their families... they will be sent directly to Xun Sikong's house. They are all from Yingchuan."
"Here!" Jia Mu quickly bowed and nodded, but did not leave in a hurry because he knew that his father must have other instructions.
"The Prime Minister has made up his mind to move the capital." Jia Xu continued to lower his head and said. "I was in Xiaopingjin before, but I didn't know that he was not only afraid of attacking the Dong Alliance Army, but he was also somewhat discouraged and wanted to return to Guanzhong to enjoy himself and retire...
… Don’t keep all your belongings, sell them all to buy rice and grain. Except for the frame of the carriage I am traveling on, all the rest of the livestock, carriages and horses will also be sold. Then the army will naturally have troops and horses to pick them up... Only one
The thing is, starting from next month, you will bring the neighbors and old friends from Luozhong to your home early, and then say that they will be our servants, so as to protect them."
Jia Mu wanted to speak but stopped.
"What do you mean?" Jia Xu noticed something strange about his son.
"My father was in Xiaopingjin before, so I'm afraid I don't know about it," Jia Mu replied helplessly. "These days, relatives and friends in Luozhong, and even neighbors, move around less and less... Some people even regard our home as a den of tigers and wolves, for fear that
Avoid it."
Jia Xu was stunned for a moment, but rarely smiled bitterly: "Since the prime minister led the Guanxi soldiers to Henan in large numbers, some of his relatives and friends died innocently at the hands of the Xiliang soldiers, or some property and houses were seized by the Xiliang soldiers... Treat me like
It is normal for the Prime Minister’s confidants to be enemies of Qi. Don’t blame them!”
"That……"
"Do your best!" Jia Xu finally no longer had to hide his helplessness in front of his own son. He slumped on the chair with his head tilted back, his eyes closed tightly, one hand dropped and the other covered his face. "Do your best!
The world is like this, but I, Jia Wenhe, have no wrong feelings after all!"
Jia Mu bowed and resigned.
It is said that Jia Xu lives in a place where ordinary people live in Southeast City, but as Sikong, Xun Shuang and his nephew Xun You live in the place where the nobles and nobles of Xicheng live... Not to mention the traffic coming and going, it is the first day of the first lunar month.
, the atmosphere was also extremely lively, with countless servants of the nobles and nobles walking around carrying incense and candles for sacrifices, sacrificial animals, and Zhengdan gifts.
Come to think of it, Yangcheng had a similar atmosphere, but suddenly encountered Dong Zhuo's troops, right?
"I have inquired clearly." Even though Xun Gongda was hiding, he was actually a little helpless standing in front of his uncle at this time. "They are all the people of Yangcheng... Sun Jian did not have time to send troops, but Li Jue was jealous of Xu Rong.
In recognition of Li Meng's military exploits, he sent his cavalry out of Zhengyuan Pass, where the people were preparing for Zhengdan sacrifices in the city..."
"Needless to say." Xun Shuang, who had been sitting on the hot bed since his return, couldn't help but interrupt his grandnephew's report, and then said a shocking sentence. "Dong Zhuo must be killed to help the country!"
His expression was furious, and his hair was shaking uncontrollably under the lamp. It was hard to imagine that he had been talking and laughing with Dong Zhongying all day long.
However, Xun You returned to his usual motionless posture at this time, and seemed to have expected his uncle's decision: "Dong Zhuo is violent and violent, and of course he must be eliminated as soon as possible. But now that the main force of Kansai has left Hangu Pass, forty to fifty thousand
The Kansai army is surrounding Luoyang. If Dong Zhuo is killed at this time, Luoyang will inevitably turn into a battlefield. Not only will Henan turn into ghosts, but the emperor and the ministers may also get into trouble... My uncle, King Hongnong is dead, and now
The emperor is the only legitimate Miao descendant of the Han Dynasty. If something goes wrong, let alone help the country, I am afraid that the Han Dynasty and the whole world will perish at our hands."
"What should we do?"
A man cut off his head and hung it on a horse, but we actually wanted to apologize in his house! And we should be grateful to him for giving me the position of three princes?! Didn't you see it today? Even young people like Liu Fan look down on me
For those who work for the tiger!"
Xun You remained silent and did not refute.
However, Xun Shuang, who has always been very magnanimous, rarely vented his gaffe but then nodded slowly: "Gongda is right, the timing is not good, so we can't do it hastily... Liu Fan, on the other hand, will not be punished by Dong Zhuo for his gaffe today.
Bar?"
"It won't be dealt with." Xun You said softly. "I heard that Dong Zhuo intends to use troops in Yizhou to build the foundation of Guanzhong after moving the capital... And since he has to fight with Liu Yizhou, Liu Fan will be as stable as Mount Tai in the short term!"
"Can you win me over?" Xun Shuang continued to ask. "Although Liu Junlang is selfish, he is a scholar of our generation after all, and Liu Fan is also a passionate young man... If we can get Liu Junlang to send troops to help through him,
Or you can ask Liu Junlang to coordinate with Han Sui and Ma Teng in Liangzhou, maybe there will be some opportunities."
"I don't think there is any need to win over him," Xun You said thoughtfully. "After this incident, Liu Fan will most likely want to kill Dong Zhuo. If we don't go to him, he will do it himself; and we
If you go to find him, you might be easily exposed!"
"What about Wang Yun?" Xun Shuang asked again. "Is Wang Yun trustworthy?"
“Trustworthy!”
...I guess that when Dong Zhuo was deposed, he was determined to kill Dong... Otherwise, with his previous stubborn character and loyalty to the Han Dynasty, how could he succumb to this point?
?”
"So that's it." Xun Shuang looked surprised. "Then what about today..."
"After all, Jia Wenhe is from Xiliang, and he is also a man of refuge. How could he plot against Dong Zhuo?"
, and your thoughts, uncle."
Xun Shuang was horrified, but when he saw the calm face of his great-nephew, he finally felt relieved: "You mean, although he won't plot against others, he won't report on us either?"
"Not bad." Xun You nodded immediately.
"It's said that you know people but don't know their hearts." Xun Shuang was still a little worried. "After all, he is from Xiliang. The chaos in Hanoi almost cost Yuan Benchu his life and ruined the overall situation. What if..."
Before he could finish speaking, there was suddenly a loud noise outside, which shocked Xun Shuang into silence. However, soon after, a close family member came to report that a group of women had been sent by Jia Xu, the captain of the school, because their home was small and there was nowhere to put them.
, so I asked Sikong to help take care of these Yingchuan Township people.
Xun Shuang looked at his grandnephew, who still had a normal expression, and nodded suddenly. He put aside the previous discussion about plotting for a new leader, sighed, and then personally went to make arrangements for the women from the same village who no longer had fathers, brothers, husbands, or even children.
went.
But when his uncle walked out of the room, Xun Gongda still stood in the house like a wooden sculpture, staring at the candlelight in front of the bed, lost in thought for a long time.
On the New Year's Day of the first lunar month, Dong Zhuo officially sent an envoy to announce the change of Yuan Dynasty to Chuping. However, with the new year's title of the young emperor, the world officially entered an era of war and chaos.
In the direction of Hanoi, Yuan Shao's main force was not lost, but it could be said that his muscles and bones were damaged. Therefore, while he stepped up his defense in Sanjin, Hanoi, he also managed to cheer up, reorganize his troops, and accumulate strength... And I don't know if he was affected by it.
In response to stimulation, people become more decisive and ruthless in their actions.
Dong Zhuo asked the court to send Da Honglu Han Rong, Shaofu Yin Xun, General Wu Xun, the great craftsman, Jin Wu Hu Mu Ban, Yue Cavalry School Lieutenant Wang Gui and other officials to persuade him to stop the army. Instead of seeing him, he actually
Wang Kuang, who had no more troops, ordered Wang Kuang, as the governor of Hanoi, to arrest all the lobbyists in one fell swoop and imprison them to show his determination.
As for the jujube, although the jujube coalition had fought against Dong in the past, they had been unable to organize an effective offensive because they had sent out many orders, so they had been stalling at the junction of Chenliu and Henan. But after the Chinese New Year, as they marched in Hanoi
Yuan Shao, who was licking his wounds, gave orders over and over again, each time with harsher and more explicit words. For the last time, he simply took all the ministers who had been arrested for only two or three days to Suanzao, and then had them publicly executed...
The princes finally did not dare to delay any longer, so under the coordination of Cao Cao, they officially launched the westward expedition and quickly advanced to Hulao Pass within the first ten days.
On the other side, with the Yingchuan prefect Li Min being cooked to death, Yuan Shu and Sun Jian finally faced Dong Zhuo's army.
In fact, on the fifth day after Li Min was killed, Xu Rong and Li Meng suddenly led their cavalry to attack Luyang City in Nanyang County, which Sun Jian now regarded as his base camp. At that time, Sun Wentai was actually meeting with the lieutenant general outside the city.
A banquet was held to celebrate the spring day. All the army officers, local officials and village elders were drinking on the high platform, and some troops were displayed under the stage.
At this time, if Dong Jun's cavalry launches a surprise attack, they might be able to finish the whole thing in one fell swoop.
However, Sun Jian was not afraid in the face of danger. When he saw that the other party was actually the vanguard, there was no general in charge of the overall situation in the army, so he pretended to be calm and continued to drink and have fun on the stage, talking and laughing without any confusion. When the wine was finished,
, then he took his time and arranged the officials in an orderly manner, and the troops entered the city calmly, and then deployed defense.
Dong Zhuojun was suspicious and afraid of an ambush, so he did not dare to act rashly throughout the whole process... But when Xu Rong and Li Meng, the two people in charge of the overall situation, arrived, they were faced with a well-defended fortified city, so they had to retreat.
In any case, as mentioned before, with the power of Jia Xu and Lu Bu in Sanjin, the last layer of cover in the world has been torn off. In troubled times, warlords are fighting in a melee, and those with strong soldiers and horses are the first. The so-called era of great strife has completely arrived.
In fact, at this moment, even Gongsun Xun in Taiyuan felt the impact of the wave of the times, and it was inevitable that he would have some collision with the center of the times.
Of course, the geographical location is there, it's just an indirect collision.
"Yufuluo sent someone to congratulate the Lantern Festival?"
After taking a short rest in Jinyang, Gongsun Xun, who was collecting grain, military supplies, young men, and even talents through house raids and "donations", received an interesting message.
"Yes, the messenger has arrived in the city, and it is Hu Chuquan, Yufuluo's brother. I think his sincerity is quite high." Xi Zhong reported his position at the same time.
Gongsun Xun pondered for a moment.
By the way, Gongsun Xun stayed in Jinyang for more than half a month, not just to gather food and auxiliary troops; nor was he addicted to playing the ridiculous game of confiscating homes and donating money with so many local families... From a military perspective
, the army does not need much repair. If you want to send troops, you can send troops immediately after controlling more than 20 cities in the 16 counties of Taiyuan; and if you want to train the local noble families, you can also go back and deal with them after asking Dong.
In fact, Gongsun Xun and his Youzhou Army really encountered two difficulties:
The first is the direction of entry.
In Qixian County, Taiyuan, the Shanxi Landlord Channel is no longer a line, but divided into two. One goes southwest along the Fen River to the prosperous Hedong; the other goes southeast, leads to the Shangdang Basin, and then connects to Hanoi.
With...Wei Jun.
No matter which direction you go, the advantages and disadvantages are obvious... Hedong Road is easy to walk, and there is Fenshui, which has begun to thaw, to serve as a natural logistics supply line. However, there are more than 100,000 regular troops who have defeated Niu Fu, and their morale is good.
The Baibo bandits are prosperous, and their leader Guo Tai, as a remnant of the Yellow Turbans, probably has nothing good to say to Gongsun Xun. As for going to the Dang to Hanoi, the road is relatively difficult. There are many checkpoints in the mountains along the way, but the Dang's
Yufuluo, the real Chanyu of the Xiongnu, and Zhang Yang, the self-proclaimed prefect, have relatively few soldiers, and there is the possibility of political negotiations between the two parties.
To be fair, if Gongsun Xun had enough troops at this time, he would definitely divide his troops, but he only had 20,000 troops, so he had to make a decision to be on the safe side.
Secondly, there is the question of who will sit in Jinyang and serve as the governor of Taiyuan.
To be honest, if we only choose one qualified prefect, Gongsun Xun would have too many people at his disposal right now. If nothing else, there is no doubt about the abilities and qualifications of Guo Xun and Guo Yao. Wang Ze’s brother
Wang Rou was also idle at home and expressed her surrender. However, the internal political weight of these people in the Gongsun Xun Group was a bit ridiculous.
In fact, according to the plan, Gongsun Xun planned to let these "newcomers" with rich administrative experience and political qualifications work in his own heart, and then transfer young subordinates such as Chang Lin and Du Ji who he really trusted and relied on to
Come up with these key nodes.
In other words, it stands to reason that Chang Lin or Du Ji should be transferred to serve as the Taiyuan prefect at this time.
But the problem is not that simple, because Taiyuan or Jinyang needs more than just a prefect.
In other words, although Gongsun Xun easily captured Jinyang with the help of his subordinates' good fighting skills and internal support, no one can deny the value of this city! In fact, after this battle, Gongsun Xun fell into the trap of marching.
After solving the problem of direction, I finally understood why Taiyuan is the core of Jin!
The reason is very simple. The geography is here, and the military superiority is here. This is the heart of Jin... With one city in hand, we can control Yanmen in the north, suppress Hedong in the west, and Shangdang in the east!
In other words, Jinyang is not only the lifeblood of Gongsun Xun and his Youzhou Army at this moment, but also an important political node second only to Changping in future strategic planning.
Therefore, there must be someone who is both loyal and politically powerful to garrison this place... On the one hand, it can allow Gongsun Xun to lead his troops south with confidence, but on the other hand, it can make the Taiyuan family and the old Youji clan have nothing to say.
But it is a pity that Gongsun Xun does not have such a suitable candidate on hand at this time... Guo Xun, Guo Mian, and Wang Rou cannot be trusted yet, nor will they be recognized by Gongsun Xun's subordinates; while Chang Lin and
Du Ji did not yet have the political prestige to overwhelm local families and coordinate the Jin region in the future.
If we really want to say that they are suitable, they can only be Lu Fan, Wang Xiu, Shen Pei, Dong Zhao, and Gongsun Fan. But except for Wang Xiu, the other four people have their own strategic nodes that need to be controlled. How can they be separated from each other?
How many miles would it take to bring someone here?
As for the fact that Wang Xiu, Wang Shuzhi and Gongsun Xun were still going to fight, it was really inseparable from him handling the logistics at the back! Even Wang Shuzhi was no longer in Jinyang at this time, but went to Qixian to make logistics preparations.
In fact, Gongsun Xun, who was extremely helpless, had actually sent an invitation to his mother, asking her to come to Jinyang from Yanmen South to temporarily train the local aristocratic family for his son. And Gongsun had already expressed his agreement... But even if
So, you have to make a long-term appointment for long-term planning, right?
It is necessary to make a decision as soon as possible about the direction of march and staying behind in Taiyuan.
And under this situation, Yuvluo, who was in front of Shangdang, suddenly sent his biological brother to pay homage to Gongsun Xun... At such a time, I can only say that this man is definitely worth meeting.
So, Gongsun Xun held a banquet in the official temple of Jinyang City under the banner of the upcoming Shangyuan Festival, inviting military officers, city officials, and local aristocrats to enjoy the delicious food, and also entertained Huchuquan... It was really...
Enjoy the delicious food, because along with Aunt Gongsun’s reply, a new type of cooking utensil called a hot pot steamer also arrived in Taiyuan!
According to the instructions provided by Aunt Gongsun, this should be for eating mutton-boiled meat, so Huchuquan, the king of Youxian, is probably the most suitable for entertaining the Huns.
However, unexpectedly, Huchuquan, like everyone else, was extremely novel about mutton-boiled in hot pot. He was even shocked when Yuwen Heita personally cut the meat for Gongsun Xunliang in the hall... Guo Mian
None of those people were frightened.
But soon, Gongsun Xun felt relieved... It turned out that although he was from the so-called Xiongnu royal family, his degree of Chineseization was already very high. He talked and behaved like a traditional Han noble from a border county. He didn't even need Gongsun Xun to change his surname.
They call themselves the Liu family, and other local families in Bingzhou also generally recognize it.
When I asked, I found out that this was an old rule. Ever since Maodun Shanyu and Liu Bang became brothers, and then the Huns and Han Dynasties got married, the two families had been grudges for hundreds of years. Later, when the Southern Huns surrendered to the Later Han Dynasty, the Huns royal family became
The Liu family recognized themselves, and the Han Dynasty court also recognized this family.
All in all, Huchuquan's performance was too Chinese, and the communication was smooth throughout.
He first took the initiative to tell Gongsun Xun about the battle between Lu Bu and Jia Xu years ago, and then was asked by a group of people to tell him some information about Luoyang, Hanoi, and jujube in the south, about the relocation of the capital, and about Wang Kuang's arrest of his brother-in-law.
The matter of Hu Muban, and the fact that Hu Muban entrusted his family to Wang Kuang before he was executed... After some exchanges, he finally couldn't wait to express his peace of mind on behalf of Zhang Yang and Yu Fuluo.
This is of course understandable, and even expected... Now the Xiongnu is divided into three, and the original Xiutu tribes are changed to the Zhang family, and they lead the tribes to the foot of Yin Mountain in Hetao; several old kings brought some miscellaneous
The tribe guarded the royal court in Hexi; while brothers Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan led thousands of soldiers and horses to occupy Shangdang, making it impossible to advance or retreat.
Now that Gongsun Xun controls Bingbei, if the brothers want to restore the Liu family's rule over the Xiongnu, they obviously cannot avoid General Wei.
but……
"Dare you ask King Youxian?" At this moment, Tian Feng suddenly ignored the etiquette and frowned in the seat while cooking meat. "What does harmony mean? Could it be that my general went south to fight against Dong, but you were originally planning to fight against Dong?"
Are the Shangdang's weapons facing each other?"
"How dare you confront General Wei?!" Although Hu Chuquan was recognized as a 'king' within the Han Dynasty system, how could he dare to take control here... In fact, faced with Tian Feng's question, he immediately invested
Avoid the seat and answer respectfully.
"If you don't dare to fight with swords, how come your brother will send two thousand cavalry and Zhang Yang's one thousand infantry to garrison in Nie County? There are even two groups of 400 people sent by Zhang Yang in Sheep Head Mountain?" Lou Gui's head was full of food.
Dahan, at this time, took the opportunity to stop, and then sneered again and again. "Nie County is where the main road connecting Taiyuan to Shangdang is, and Sheephead Mountain is where the trail is located. Don't say that you stationed troops in these two places for
Dealing with Dong Zhuo! Even the Baibo bandits are not easy to deal with, right? Because when my lord was stationed in Taiyuan, the Baibo bandits who harassed Shangdang immediately withdrew to the east of Hedong, and then deployed defenses along the Fen River in the east of Hedong."
Maybe it was because the hot pot was too sweaty. Huchuquan was sweating profusely. After thinking for a long time, he could only kneel down in the hall and kowtow to the chief Gongsun Xun who kept shabu-shabu without saying a word.
: "General Wei, it's not us who dare to do anything against the general. The two brothers are actually alone, with only thousands of soldiers and horses to rely on, but wars are happening everywhere... As the saying goes, you must not have the intention to harm others, and guard against others.
The heart is indispensable.”
"What do you brothers want to do?" After finishing a plate of mutton, Yuwen Black Otter hurriedly went to cut the meat again, and Gongsun Xun, the real master of the North, finally took advantage of the opportunity to speak. "If you just want to return to the Royal Court of Meiji,
, I can guarantee the safety of your two brothers and your troops, and let you cross the river via Taiyuan."
Huchuquan hesitated for a moment.
"Are you afraid that I will annex the troops of your two brothers on the way?" Gongsun Xun also frowned when he saw this. "I, General Wei, have given you permission in public today. Why would I break my promise and get fat? If your brothers return to Meiji, I will never do it."
Nothing much to do!"
Huchuquan was immediately worried and kowtowed again: "General Wei, please forgive me. It's not because I don't believe in the general, but because I made an alliance with Governor Zhang Yang that day to attack Dong. At this time, the great cause has not been completed, so I don't dare to turn back easily!"
"Then what do you mean by harmony?" Gongsun Xun was also speechless.
"Yes..." Huchuquan hesitated again.
"Don't hide it!" As Yuwen Black Otter brought a thin plate of mutton, Gongsun Xun became even more annoyed. "How can I have time to guess Shangyuan lantern riddles with you here? Come here quickly.
"
Huchuquan did not dare to delay any longer, and he bowed his head and stated the purpose of his trip: "My brother and Prefect Zhang want the general to march from Hedong. We will never dare to take the opportunity to offend Taiyuan's subordinates... And if this is the case,
, Yuan Cheqi is in Hanoi, and General Wei is in Hedong, we can also attack on both sides."
Gongsun Xun and several of his close advisors immediately woke up and laughed. Guo Mian and Wang Rou also looked at each other and couldn't help but sneer... But after Gongsun Xun finished laughing, he ignored this person and continued to lower his head.
Had hotpot.
As for the people in the hall, starting from Lou Gui, Tian Feng, and Han Dang on one side, all the way to Linghu Hua, who had just surrendered to the army; on the other side, starting from Wang Rou, Guo Yao, and the young man Wen Hui in the corner, they all lowered their heads to cook the pot.
The drinking didn't stop, and we even drank and chatted about things... I was so happy for a while!
Hu Chuquan looked around, becoming more and more anxious. After waiting for a long time, he saw that Gongsun Xun was really determined to leave him here, but he suddenly remembered something, and then kowtowed again and said: "Wei
General, if General Wei agrees, not only Yuan Cheqi will be able to get along with you, but also your commander Lu Gong and your younger brother Gongsun Wenchao..."
"Master Lu and my brother were detained by you in the Shangdang?" Gongsun Xun stood up suddenly, but kicked over the hot pot in front of him. As the heat filled the air, the surrounding officers held their knives.
"It's not like that!" Huchuquan was splashed with oil soup for half his hand, but he didn't dare to say anything. He just kowtowed and explained. "My master and my brother met in Bo County, Hanoi, south of the Taihang Mountains, and they were holding hands with the county magistrate.
If Zhao sticks there, he is really not at Shangdang... I mean if the alliance is completed, then everyone in Bo County can calmly cross Shangdang and come to see the general!"
When Gongsun Xun heard this, he felt relieved at first, but then sneered again: "You can go back to Tingyi today... Don't disturb my rare good mood!"
Huchuquan did not dare to say anything, so he retreated in panic under the supervision of the soldiers. Immediately, someone naturally picked up the dumped hot pot, cleaned it again, added soup and charcoal, and started the pot again... Of course, Yuwen
Black Otter also immediately cut up another plate of meat for Gongsun Xun.
I had so much fun that day that I didn't mention it, but after the banquet... Gongsun Xun sent everyone away and returned to the back room of the official temple, only to see Tian Feng, Lou Gui and Xi Zhong already here.
"Since Dong Zhuo has started to move the capital, we should go to Hedong!" Tian Feng slightly cupped his hands and made it clear. "This way we can ensure both sides."
"That's right!" Lou Gui immediately nodded in agreement. "We have to go to Hedong! Dong Zhuo moved too fast, God knows how long it will take him to move the capital? If he had worked so hard to defeat Zhang Yang and Yu Fuluo and enter Hanoi, he would have already moved the capital there.
If we go to Chang'an, it will be in vain. If we go east of the river and enter Hongnong, we can deal with both Chang'an and Luoyang calmly... Even if we fight quickly, we might even be able to intercept his team moving the capital at Hongnong!"
"It's not just that." Gongsun Xun, who was a little full after eating, sat on the couch and said another thing. "I originally thought that A Yue was going to Chao Ge and was separated by Han Fu at Yun Chang, but now I know that he is actually
At Lian Zi Jing's place... this saves trouble, just show him the title of general and let him come to Jinyang to garrison. And Zi Jing has also worked hard for many years, and happens to be the prefect of Taiyuan, guarding my retreat with A Yue."
No one said anything about this arrangement. After all, it was too sensitive. However, there was no objection, which shows that this appointment is undoubtedly a reasonable arrangement... After all, as a brother of Gongsun Xun, he is almost the person he trusts the most.
First, it is indeed very suitable for Gongsun Yue to come to Jinyang to take charge.
"In that case." Tian Feng frowned and said, "Why don't you simply agree to Huchuquan's invitation?"
Gongsun Xun nodded first, then shook his head.
"General, are you still reluctant to join the party?" Tian Feng certainly understood what the other party meant.
"And I don't want the Huns to interfere with world affairs." Facing these three people, Gongsun Xun had no need to cover up or put on a show. "Yuan Chaqi and Yuan Shao are just cover-ups. But when troubled times come, Zhang Yang and Yu Fu
Luo Du has become ambitious... As for Zhang Yang, I always want to get rid of or annex the Huns, and even if it doesn't work, I will drive them to Xihe... Where in the world is it their turn to covet?"
Tian Feng frowned for a moment.
"This is a difficult time for the ruler." Lou Gui couldn't help but laugh. "If you want to go to the east of Hedang, you still have to go to Shangdang; if you want Wenchao, Lu Gong and Zi Jing to come to Taiyuan from Shangdang quickly, you still have to annex the Huns.
My tribe... how can such a good thing happen? Even if you coax the fruit in the hands of a child, you have to give it a big one in exchange. How can you give someone a county with nothing?"
Gongsun Xun knew that he was guilty of greed, and he shook his head for a while.
And just when he was about to grit his teeth and make a decision, abandon Shangdang and go straight to Hedong... Suddenly, Xi Zhong, who had been silent until now, spoke softly: "Junhou, I heard a lot of news from the south from Hu Chuquan today. I
I have been thinking about it, and I have a plan. Perhaps with only a few thousand light soldiers and no blood stains, I can easily capture the whole party and annex it to Fuluo's tribe."
There was silence in the house for a moment.
"Wonderful strategy!" Suddenly, Tian Feng began to praise. "You might as well change the party first, and then attack Hedong."
"That's right." Gongsun Xun also suddenly realized. "What a wonderful idea!"
Lou Gui nodded slowly.
—I am the dividing line that knows nothing—
"Taizu attacked Dong and went to Taiyuan. He faced the east side of the river and went to Shangdang. He had few troops and didn't know where he was going. When he met Zhang Yang of the upper party, he asked Fu Luo for peace. Everyone thought that Taizu should give up and go to the east of the river. Du Zhongcai ran.
