Everyone fell silent, thinking carefully about Jia Xu's words.
Among the few people, Wang Can was particularly shocked.
When he was in Chengdu, he discussed with Cheng Yu, Xun You, and Guo Jia how to deal with the affairs of Chang'an, and finally decided to use the emperor to control the princes and achieve great things. Cheng Yu and others planned to let Li Meng, Fan Chou and Zhang Ji After the invasion of Chang'an and the chaos in Chang'an, Wang Can led his troops to attack again and defeated the Xiliang army led by Fan Chou and others. This was a method that several people came up with.
However, Jia Xu is more ruthless and vicious.
His words are enough to deserve the title of "Poisoner" in later generations.
If Li Meng and others were really allowed to take control of the government and act recklessly, within a few years, the world would become a situation where princes were competing for hegemony in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. The prestige of the Han Dynasty would be ruined, and the princes would not obey the orders of the court. What's worse, it is very likely There are also people who openly claim to be emperor. This is the situation that Jia Xu painstakingly wants to create. On the one hand, it will reduce the influence of the Han Dynasty, and on the other hand, it will breed the ambitions of various princes, so that all princes have the right to aspire to the world.
At this time, although Dong Zhuo was killed, the prestige of the Han Dynasty still existed.
There is a saying that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The Han Dynasty has been in power for four hundred years, but there are still many people who are loyal to the Han Dynasty.
Once the princes stand on their own, or if they disobey the imperial edict, they are likely to be accused of rebellion. Once Fan Chou and others succeed, they bully the emperor, prostitute the palace, and coerce all officials, which will completely make the imperial court lose the world. The hearts and minds of the people have become a loose frame and no longer have any appeal.
Wang Can thought about Jia Xu's words and secretly praised what a 'king' and what a 'hegemony' in his heart.
Jia Xu sat upright, his eyes passing over the people in the tent, and he sneered in his heart.
His eyes stayed on Wang Can and said coldly: "My lord, could it be that after hearing Xu's plan, I was frightened by 'Wang Ye' and did not dare to do this? Or maybe my lord is still loyal to the Han Dynasty in his heart and wants to be a Han Dynasty." A loyal minister in the chamber?"
Wang Can shook his head and said, "That's not the case. Can is just impressed by Wen He's talent and how wise he is!"
When Jia Xu heard this, his expression was gloomy and constantly changing.
What he said just now meant to squeeze Wang Can. Because the strategy he mentioned was like pulling out the firewood, draining all the remaining strength of the Han Dynasty. Such unscrupulous means are not liked by anyone. Seeing Wang Can deep in thought There was no word for a long time, and it was only Jia Xu who said something like this.
He originally wanted to squeeze Wang Can, but received Wang Can's words of praise, which made Jia Xu feel a little confused.
Belly sinister heart of a gentleman!
Jia Xu had mixed feelings in her heart, which was very unpleasant. Wang Can didn't know what Jia Xu was thinking, and was thinking about what to do next.
Due to Jia Xu's judgment, the original plan had to be changed accordingly.
Wang Can said in a deep voice: "Wenhe's plan is very suitable to my liking. After capturing Chang'an this time, Li Meng, Fan Chou and Zhang Ji were allowed to control the government. However, due to changes in the plan, there was no Yizhou army to attack Chang'an. , the Yizhou Army would not have defeated the Xiliang Army and welcomed us back to Chengdu. The few of us have been paying attention to the Xiliang Army all day long, and it may be difficult to leave the Xiliang Army."
Xu Rong said: "My lord is right. Once we break away from the Xiliang Army, we will definitely be pursued by the Xiliang Army. Without a long-term plan, it may be difficult to escape."
Li Ru smiled and said: "Master, there are only five of us. Isn't it easy for five of us to leave Chang'an? As long as we create a little chaos in Chang'an, we can leave easily. Besides, we have the Hero Building to help us, so leaving Chang'an is easy. However,
The Lord also needs to have the soldiers stationed in Hanzhong come to meet him to avoid being discovered by the Xiliang army before he can successfully leave Chang'an and go to Chengdu."
Jia Xu nodded and said: "Wen You's words are reasonable. The army stationed in Hanzhong has received the news that the Xiliang army has captured Chang'an. They must immediately send soldiers to Chang'an to meet the lord on the road to avoid being pursued."
Regarding Li Ru's words, Jia Xu raised his hands in agreement.
The most important thing for him to surrender to Wang Can is to get rid of the chaos in Chang'an and save his own life. If he surrenders to Wang Can and is still hunted down, facing a situation where his life is at risk, it is better to stay in the Xiliang Army.
will be threatened.
Wang Can nodded and said: "Okay, I will send the message back as soon as possible."
In the camp, everyone looked at each other and smiled.
…
Royal palace, side hall.
Liu Xie was wearing a dragon robe and a flat crown, with a worried look on his young cheeks.
Below, Liu Xian and Wang Yun were sitting.
Liu Xian was Liu Xie's imperial uncle, whom Liu Xie relied on as his right-hand man. Wang Yun, an important minister in the imperial court, was loyal to the young emperor and was Liu Xie's confidant.
After Wang Yun took control of the government, he gradually became arrogant and arrogant, and did not take his fellow officials in the court seriously. However, Wang Yun was very respectful to the young emperor. This was the idea of loyalty to the emperor that was rooted in his bones. No matter how arrogant he was,
No matter how he changed, when facing the little emperor, he behaved respectfully and did not dare to be disrespectful in the slightest.
Liu Xie said in a deep voice: "Wang Qing, the Xiliang army is coming fiercely. It has defeated Xu Rong and killed Duan Xuan. The army is about to approach the city. How should we deal with it?"
Liu Xie was extremely talented, intelligent and agile, but he was only a child in his early ten years.
When I met the Xiliang army coming to Chang'an, I was very worried.
When he looked at Wang Yun, he also showed a hint of complaint. If Wang Yun had not changed his order in the evening and pushed the Xiliang army into a hurry, Fan Chou and others would not have gathered tens of thousands of Xiliang troops to attack Chang'an. Liu Xie complained about Wang Yun,
But it's hard to blame, because Wang Yun was so busy dealing with state affairs all day long that even the gray hair on his temples had turned snow-white, making him look much older.
Liu Xie didn't know how to deal with such a diligent and hard-working veteran minister?
Scold! Belittle!
No matter what, Wang Yun is a loyal minister of the court, and Wang Yun's heart cannot be chilled.
When Wang Yun heard that the Xiliang army was coming to attack Chang'an, there was no worried look on his face. He said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Marquis Wen Lu Bu is stationed in Chang'an, so the Xiliang army has nothing to fear. When the Xiliang army arrives, Marquis Wen will lead
If our troops go out to fight, we can defeat the Xiliang army in one battle. When the time comes, kill all Fan Chou, Li Meng and Zhang Ji. These rebellious officials and traitors should be killed! They should be killed!"
His tone was cold, his face was as frosty, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent. Wang Yun hated Fan Chou and others to the core of his being, and hated such rebellious officials and traitors.
Seeing that Wang Yun was so confident, Liu Xie found it difficult to speak.
He thought for a moment, turned his eyes to Liu Xian, and motioned for Liu Xian to speak.
Liu Xian coughed twice and said: "Wang Situ, after the Xiliang army defeated Xu Rong and Duan Xuan, they have passed Xinfeng County and are rushing to Chang'an. Situ needs to prepare early. Besides, there is news from the scouts that Li Ru
He is the military advisor of Fan Chou and others. With Li Ru in charge, the Xiliang army has become more powerful, so it has to be cautious, so Wang Situ treats it with caution."
"Li Ru?"
After hearing this, Wang Yun had a solemn look on his face.
Since Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, Wang Yun had dealt with Dong Zhuo and Li Ru and knew Li Ru's capabilities. When he killed Dong Zhuo but failed to catch Li Ru, Wang Yun was angry for several days. Now he suddenly heard the news about Li Ru.
Wang Yun suddenly felt endless murderous intent and wanted to kill Li Ru.
Wang Yun took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, with the help of Li Ru in the Xiliang Army, the situation has changed. I must arrange the defense of the city as soon as possible to avoid loopholes and I will retreat."
Liu Xie waved his hand and said, "Wang Qing, go ahead!"
Wang Yun bowed to the emperor again and respectfully left the palace.
…
After Wang Yun returned to Situ Mansion, he immediately summoned Lu Bu, Fan Hu and Shen Xu to discuss the matter.
In the hall, Wang Yun glanced at several people and said: "Fan Chou, Li Meng and Zhang Ji are all reckless men. They don't know the art of war and don't know how to march and form, so there is nothing to worry about. However, Li Ru is a very talented man.
People, with Li Ru in charge of the Xiliang army, great changes have taken place in the Xiliang army, which should not be underestimated. Marquis Wen, you command the soldiers in the city, and you have thousands of elite soldiers under your command. Arrange the army as soon as possible, guard Chang'an, and be ready to lead troops to attack at any time.
.”
"promise!"
After Lu Bu heard this, he raised his hands and answered.
Wang Yun nodded, looked at Shen Xu and Fan Hu, and ordered: "The situation is tense now. You two will take my post to see the wealthy people in Chang'an City and ask them to send private troops to help defend the city. Agree to go out."
That’s just the big families who are private soldiers. If you don’t agree with the big families, please record them and report them all to me, and I will deal with them one by one."
A cold light flashed in Wang Yun's eyes, and the family that didn't help would have no choice but to be eradicated directly.
Shen Xu and Fan Hu agreed, turned around and left.
In the hall, only Wang Yun and Lu Bu were left.
Wang Yun thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Marquis Wen, the situation in Chang'an is critical. It has a bearing on whether we can continue to stay in Chang'an. I hope Marquis Wen will do his best to defeat the Xiliang army."
Lu Bu cupped his hands and said, "Wang Situ, don't worry, Bu will do his best."
…
Two days later, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji and Li Meng led the Xiliang army to Chang'an.
Tens of thousands of troops were stationed outside the city. The menacing and dark group of soldiers frightened the soldiers defending the city. Just when the soldiers in the city were worried, another Xiliang army arrived outside the city.
At this time, outside Chang'an City, there was a large tent of the Xiliang Army. In the tent, Fan Chou, Li Meng and Zhang Ji were sitting in a row. From left to right, they were Fan Chou, Zhang Ji, Li Meng, and two people on the left and right below.
On the side are Li Ru and Jia Xu, and further down are Xu Rong, Zhang Xiu and other military generals, as well as a group of captains.
"Tap! Tread!..."
Outside the camp, there was a sound of rapid footsteps.
The curtain of the big tent door was opened, and two strong men with beards were seen walking in. These two people were Wang Fang and Yang Ding, the Xiliang army generals who came to attack Chang'an at Fan Chou's invitation. After Wang Fang walked in, he raised his hands and greeted
Fan Chou, Li Meng and Zhang Ji bowed to each other and said: "General Fan, my brother Yang Ding and I are a little late, please forgive me, forgive me!"
Fan Chou shook his head and smiled: "It's not too late, it's just right."
Fan Chou waved his hand and asked the soldiers to add two new seats at the front, allowing Wang Fang and Yang Ding to take their seats.
After sitting down, Yang Ding clasped his fists and said, "General Fan, the city of Chang'an is strong and there are fierce generals like Lu Bu. Does General Fan have any strategy to defeat the enemy?"
Wang Fang also nodded, waiting for Fan Chou's explanation.
Although the two were generals of the Xiliang Army, they did not fall under the jurisdiction of Fan Chou and others. Wang Fang and Yang Ding led the troops because they actually saw the benefits of capturing Chang'an, otherwise they would not have led the troops.
When people first arrive, they should inquire about the situation. If they don't even have a plan to defeat the enemy, it will be in vain for them to come, so they will lead the troops and leave directly.
Fan Chou smiled, showed a confident expression, and explained: "Don't worry, two generals. Mr. Li and Mr. Jia have already made plans. It will be easy to capture Chang'an City."
Wang Fang and Yang Ding turned around and saw Jia Xu and Li Ru sitting upright with expressions of astonishment on their faces.
Unexpectedly, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji and Li Meng actually recruited Jia Xu and Li Ru. Wang Fang and Yang Ding also knew Li Ru's talent. With Li Ru's plan and Jia Xu's help, they could indeed capture Chang'an.
Seeing this, Wang Fang asked: "General Fan, when will we attack the city?"
Fan Chou replied: "Early tomorrow morning, the army will pull out the stronghold and attack Chang'an City!" Wang Fang and Yang Ding heard this and nodded, with smiles on their faces.
Early the next morning, the army set off and headed for Chang'an City.
The war is about to break out.
