My Three Kingdoms is a bit fierce
Chapter 44
The two looked at Jia Xu curiously, their hearts tickled.
"A few days ago, a report came from the border gate, saying that Karasuma took advantage of the Yellow Turban riots to attack the border. Isn't it interesting to say that Chen Chu is going to fight the Karasuma people! Jia Xu laughed, smiling treacherously.
The eyes of the two suddenly lit up, and they also laughed treacherously.
"Big brother, I heard that the emperor Lao'er has promoted you again." Before anyone arrived, he couldn't find a second person except Zhang Fei.
"Big brother (lord)." Zhang Liao and the four of them came to Chen Chu together.
"Big brother, what kind of official did the emperor promote you?" Zhang Fei couldn't wait to ask, his expression was very excited, as if he had picked up a hundred taels of gold while walking.
Chen Chu patted the holy decree on the table and smiled: "The emperor promoted me to the general of the expedition to the north." The
four of them all showed expressions of sincere joy when they heard this. Congratulations to the lord (big brother) on his ascension! The four of them bowed together.
Chen Chu smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "Do you think this is a good thing?" This is Dong Zhuo's trick. Immediately, Chen Chu picked up a few other holy decrees, shook them, and said, "The Qin Cha also brought this edict. I want my cavalry to go north on the same day to quell the Karasuma Rebellion. Gongtai, tell everyone about it. In the last sentence, Chen Chu said it to a young scholar with a white face beside him. This young scholar is Chen Gong. A few days ago, Chen Chu finally abducted him back when he arrived in Zhongmu. Now, Chen Gong has become Chen Chu's military advisor.
Chen Gong was still just an unknown official at this time, but Chen Chu treated him with courtesy and entrusted him with important responsibilities. For this, Chen Gong was grateful, so he vowed in his heart to serve Chen Chu for the rest of his life.
Chen Gong respectfully bowed to Chen Chu, and then said: "Luoyang has been controlled by Dong Zhuo at this time, and these so-called holy decrees and edicts are actually Dong Zhuo's meaning. "
The four generals are good at fighting on the battlefield, but they don't understand these twists and turns. Hearing Chen Gong's words, the four generals all showed puzzled expressions.
"Military advisor, since this holy decree is what Dong Zhuo meant, then why did he want to promote his eldest brother to an official position?" It was Zhang Liao who asked the question.
Chen Gong smiled slightly, "It's very simple, there is only one reason, Dong Zhuo wants to make a gesture to the people of the world." This decree is just a smoke, so ignore it. Dong Zhuo's real intention was actually this edict.
After a pause, Chen Gong continued: "This Karasuma rebellion is different from the past, and there are nearly 200,000 rebels from various departments. These nomadic peoples grew up on horseback from an early age, and they were extremely skilled in bows and horses, and they were strong in battle on the plains. If our army fights against it, it is difficult to predict the outcome of the battle. Dong Zhuo's purpose is obvious, he wants to destroy us with Karasuma's hands. Even if we win in the end, our army will definitely suffer heavy losses, Dong Zhuo's goal has been achieved, and it will be much easier for him to do it again.
When the four of them heard this, their faces suddenly changed slightly, and Zhang Fei said angrily: "It's okay for this Dong Zhuo to fake the holy decree!" He even changed his way to harm us and others! Big brother, let's ignore him and see what he can do! "
No!" Chen Chu and Chen Gong spoke together.
The two couldn't help but be stunned, and then looked at each other and smiled. "Gongtai, it's up to you."
"Yes, my lord." Chen Gong bowed to Chen Chu, and then said to everyone: "Although Dong Zhuo wants to do Wang Mang's things, he is hiding it very well now, and all the officials and people are deceived by him. In other words, this edict is the emperor's will in the eyes of others, and if we do not obey it, it will be a blatant disobedience to the holy order, and then Dong Zhuo will do it to us for a good reason. The other princes will not dare to move if they have any scruples, and the situation of our army will be very dangerous. Therefore, although we knew that this edict was a trap, we had to jump into it. "
The four of them are very depressed, and it is really uncomfortable to know that it is a trap but can't resist it.
Chen Chu glanced at the expressions of the four people, and suddenly laughed and said, "Karasuma is just a group of barbarians!" I'm going to break it! The tone was full of heroism and confidence.
When the four of them heard this, they all thought in their hearts: It is really admirable that the lord (eldest brother) is so arrogant and dry! It doesn't matter if he's a trap or not, I just have to follow the lord (big brother) to fight!
Seeing the fierce battle intent burning in the eyes of the four people, Chen Chu nodded with satisfaction. Then Chen Chu said: "Although this expedition to Karasuma is Dong Zhuo's trap, can't we turn this into a way to enhance our power!" Hmph, Dong Zhuo wants to play a trick to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf, then he has to feed my tiger now! Gongtai, you say yes or no.
Chen Gong's eyes lit up, and there was a look of admiration in his eyes. I saw him bow deeply towards Chen Chu and said, "The lord is wise!" "
More than ten days later, Luoyang City.
Dong Zhuo looked at the letter in front of him, feeling very distressed and angry. Today, Chen Chu, the general of the expedition to the north, sent a letter to him, asking him for the armaments and supplies of 100,000 troops. In Dong Zhuo's opinion, this is simply a lion's mouth!
"Mr. Wenhe, this Chen Chu is so rude! I'm going to give him some color! Dong Zhuo danced Chen Chu's letter in his hand, his face full of anger.
Jia Xu arched his hand and said: "It is natural for the army to go out to ask for supplies from the imperial court, and if you use this as an excuse to raise troops, you will give people a handle." I think Taishi should agree to his request.
Dong Zhuo puffed out his cheeks and glared at Jia Xu and said, "What do you mean by this?" Don't you want to help him grow stronger!
Jia Xu frowned, and looked back fearlessly: "Why did the Taishi say this!" Since he boasted of following the Taishi, he could have become a lie?
Dong Zhuo realized that his words just now were heavy, and his face suddenly softened, only to see him arch his hand towards Jia Xu and say, "Mr. Wenhe, don't blame!" I just lost my words!
Jia Xu shook his head, and then explained: "If he doesn't agree to Chen Chu's request, he will definitely use the excuse that the food and grass are not good and he will not move." Now we agree to his request, and it is well worth it to use the hands of the Karasuma people to get rid of or weaken this fierce enemy at the cost of a batch of supplies! Please think twice! "
Dong Zhuo is arrogant and greedy, and it is really difficult for him to take out materials. However, Dong Zhuo has always admired Jia Xu's resourcefulness, and he believes that Jia Xu's advice is beneficial to him.
After hesitating for a long time, Dong Zhuo finally nodded in agreement.
During Chen Chu's stay in Chaoge, Cao Cao's envoy visited.
Cao Cao wrote a letter to Chen Chu. Cao Cao said a lot of things in the letter, but Chen Chu looked at it several times and didn't understand what Cao Cao meant. There's no way, Chen Chu, a modern person, still doesn't understand the ancient grammar.
Fortunately, Chen Chu now has Chen Gong by his side, so Chen Chu asked Chen Gong to explain.
It turned out that Cao Cao euphemistically asked Chen Chu in his letter about his views on the current situation, and vaguely revealed his desire to form an alliance.
An alliance with Cao Cao? Chen Chu was a little undecided, so he asked Chen Gong's opinion. Chen Gong compared Dong Zhuo to Qiang Qin during the Warring States period, and compared Cao Cao and Chen Chu to Chu and Zhao respectively. And said: "The current situation is that Dong Zhuo is strong and the lord and Cao Cao are weak, so only by joining forces can they resist."
Chen Chu pondered for a moment and felt that what Chen Gong said was very reasonable, so he decided to form an alliance with Cao Cao.
The other side. Cao Cao was very happy when he learned that Chen Chu had agreed to form an alliance. However, Chen Chu said another thing in the letter that made Cao Cao unhappy.
In his reply to Cao Cao, in addition to expressing his willingness to agree to the alliance, Chen Chu also told Cao Cao one thing. And Cao Cao doesn't know about this matter yet.
In fact, this matter has little to do with Cao Cao, but it reveals one of Dong Zhuo's intentions. Chen Chu told Cao Cao in the letter that Dong Zhuo had appointed him as the general of the expedition to the north under the false edict of the Son of Heaven, and asked him to set out on the same day on the grounds of Karasuma's rebellion. In the end, Chen Chu also faintly warned Cao Cao to be careful.
"This is Dong Zhuo's plan to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf, intending to weaken Chen Chu's strength by using Karasuma's hand. Dong Zhuo finally began to make a move against the princes outside the Guanwai! My lord, we must be careful! It was Guo Jia who spoke, and he could see Dong Zhuo's tricks at a glance.
Cao Cao frowned and said, "I also know that Dong Zhuo will definitely make a move against the princes outside the Guanwai. But how do I deal with it?
Cao Cao's three strategists pondered for a moment, but they all shook their heads with frowns.
"Lord, Dong Zhuo has not yet revealed his true face, so we can only step up the expansion of our strength and be careful!" Xun Yu arched his hand towards Cao Cao.
"What Wen Ruo said is extremely true. Lord, that's all we can do for now! Guo Jia also bowed to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao sighed, "Alas! It seems that this is the only way to go! Then he ordered: "Order all armies, step up drills, and be careful to take precautions." "
Chen Chu has been leading the army for half a year. To be honest, Chen Chu couldn't help but miss his days in Leping a little, especially Zhang Rui, whenever he thought of her, Chen Chu had a very ambiguous feeling.
I haven't seen her for half a year, I wonder if she misses me?
In fact, in the past six months, there have been frequent correspondence between Leping and Chen Chu's army. However, letters are letters after all, and they are not as good as getting along together, so the longing not only did not weaken, but became more and more intense.
After this battle, let's go back to Leping and have a look. Chen Chu thought so in his heart.
Another month passed. By the end of September, the grain and grass from Luoyang had finally arrived.
A few days later, Chen Chu led all 130,000 troops to the north. The long procession is like a dragon that travels through the hills.
Hearing the news that the general of the expedition to the north would go north to quell the rebellion, the people along the way saw him off one after another. It was a grand and touching scene.
More than ten days later, the army marched to Quang Binh. Suddenly, a man led a thousand people to meet him.
Chen Chu called to bring it up and take a look, it turned out to be Liu Bei.
"The grass people meet the general of Zhengbei." As soon as Liu Bei came to Chen Chu, he bowed.
"Xuande, please get up quickly, this informal occasion does not need to be polite."
"Xuande is here, but is there something?" Chen Chu asked.
Liu Bei replied respectfully, "It's nothing." It's just that General Wen will lead the army north to pass through this place, so he came to visit.
Chen Chu said happily: "I understand Xuande's kindness."
Then he asked: "Xuande was quite meritorious when the Yellow Turban rebelled, I don't know if the imperial court can have a reward?"
Liu Bei sighed, "Alas! Although he is the king of Zhongshan Jing, his family is in the middle of the road, and there is no acquaintance in the court, so his merits are not up to heaven, and he is still white!
Chen Chu smiled and said, "If Xuande doesn't dislike it, how about I order you to be the captain?" "。 Chen Chu is now the general of Zhengbei, a general of one side, and has the right to appoint low-level generals under his command.
