The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

But it was said that Zhong Yao refused to go to Xuzhou before, but now why is he willing to take the initiative to do these things for Xun Zhen?

This is for two reasons.

On the one hand, compared to Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai, Chen Qun and others, the friendship between Zhong Yao and Xun Zhen was separated by a layer after all. Xun Yu is the younger brother of Xun Zhen, and Chen Qun is the younger brother-in-law of Xun Zhen. Xi Zhicai, through Xin Ai, has known Xun Zhen for a long time. Zhong Yao is different from them. In other words, the friendship between Zhong Yao and Xun Zhen has not reached the level of prosperity.

Both, although the Zhong clan of Changshe is a famous clan in the prefecture and county, it is obviously beyond the reach of the great noble clans such as the Hongnong Yang clan and the Runan Yuan clan, and the first-class noble clan in the world. What Zhong Yao did was to seize every opportunity to boost his clan's prestige.

Therefore, whether it is for the improvement of personal reputation, the interests of the future, or the promotion of his family's reputation in China, Zhong Yao could never let go of the opportunity to serve as an official in the court before, especially if he was a servant of the Yellow Clan. Although humble, he is actually a close minister of the emperor.

But even so, Zhong Yao is a wise man with insight into world affairs. In some respects, he is slightly similar to Jia Xu who is constantly seeking a way out for himself, because he is similar to Xun Zhen, a fellow countryman who can become his "big foreign aid". The connection between them has not been broken, so now, there is chaos in Chang'an, and at this time when it can't stay any longer, and knowing that Xun Zhen wants to welcome the emperor and return to Luoyang, Zhong Yao begins to actively help Xun Zhen. thing.

——Imagine, if this is done, the emperor will still be in Luoyang. When Xun Zhen's influence is within the sphere of influence, Xun Zhen's power will inevitably be very large in the court. His identity, his past friendship with Xun Zhen, and his contribution to making the emperor move the capital to Luoyang, his power and reputation in the court will certainly be greatly improved.

All in all, Zhong Yao had been invited many times before and refused to go to Xuzhou, but now he took the initiative to do these things for Xun Zhen, not for it, but for the benefit of himself and the Zhong family.

The two groups of messengers sent by Zhong Yao and Ding Chong, although they did not know what was written in the letter they took, the letter was sealed, but before departure, they were both instructed and ordered by Zhong Yao and Ding Chong respectively. However, they were told to arrive at their destination as soon as possible, so the two couriers traveled very fast, both day and night, and after more than two days, they each traveled more than 200 miles.

The team of messengers sent by Zhong Yao had already entered the territory of Hongnong County along the Luoshui River. ——Luoshui is a very long river, and its source is from Jingzhao Yin, where Chang’an is located. From northwest to southeast, it flows through Hongnong County, enters Henan Yin, and joins the Yellow River.

The team of messengers sent by Ding Chong had already left Jingzhaoyin and entered the border of Huayin County.

The two messengers kept running without stopping, running parallel to the sun, and they were in a state of urgency. However, they were able to separate the two letters before the situation in Chang'an deteriorated, there was more chaos, and the personal safety of the emperor, whom Zhong Yao was worried about, was in danger. It was sent to Xun Zhen and Cao Cao, and could Xun Zhen and Cao Cao react to this in time? And between Xun Zhen and Cao Cao, who will react first? For now, these are still unknown.

...

North of Chang'an City, in the camp of Guo Si.

Guo Si, who was born as a horse thief, was widely used under Dong Zhuo's account, and his bravery is needless to say.

It's just that although Guo Si can fight, Li Jue is also a fighter.

At that time, when the princes were begging Dong, Dong Zhuo looked down on all the Guandong generals, only Xun Zhen and Sun Jian were the most important. At that time, Liu Ai, who was the long history of Dong Zhuo and was currently serving in the imperial court, responded with Li Jue and Guo Si, saying that Xun Zhen and Sun Jian were inferior to Li Jue and Guo Si in military use.

Although this statement is exaggerated and flattered, Li and Guo both have extraordinary talents in military use.

Both of them are mostly Liangzhou Xiaorui.

They are already acquainted with each other, they know the roots and the bottom line, and they all share Liangzhou's elite soldiers. They have the same root and the same origin. In this infighting between the two, it can be said that "the chess will meet the opponent, and the good talent will be met", and they are equally matched.

Therefore, it has been three days since the war with Li Jue. During the three-day battle, Guo Si kept on the offensive and was always on the offensive side, but he could not attack Li Jue's camp.

On this day, on the day when the two teams of messengers entered Hongnong County, they attacked for a whole day without any results.

After Guo Si received his troops and returned to the camp, he called in the future to see him.

The generals who received the military orders came to Guo Si's tent one after another. Most of them spoke with a Liangzhou accent. After saluting Guo Si, they waited for the rest of the people to come, and they stood in groups according to their relationship. There was a lot of discussion, all saying that these two three days of war.

Some people boasted about the military achievements of the headquarters, and some people were annoyed at the failure of the headquarters, and when they were angry, they cursed.

For a while, there was chaos.

Guo Si sat on the main seat, closed his eyes and rested his mind.

After receiving Chang Shi's interesting report, Guo Si opened his eyes and coughed.

The generals stopped talking, and stood in two columns according to their rank and age, and then under the command of Chang Shi and Sima, they formally bowed to Guo Si in unison. They were all military salutes, and said in unison: "The last general will wait to see General Ming."

The sound of the armor brought a golden aura in the brightly lit late spring tent.

Guo Si called the generals to get up, looked around the tent, and said, "We've been fighting for three days, but we haven't won. I heard that we've been in a hurry, and then we're down again, and then we're exhausted. If we keep fighting like this, we might be the losers!"

Li Jue was familiar with Guo Si's tactics, and Guo Si also knew Li Jue's tactics. Defend first, wait for the enemy to be unable to attack for a long time, and after morale is exhausted, then counterattack to win. This is the tactic used by Li Jue in his early years when he followed Dong Zhuo to suppress the Qiang rebellion. even

Dear, this chapter is not over, and there is another page ^0^ After three days of attacking Li Jue's camp, the morale of the soldiers in the headquarters has gradually declined, and Guo Si will inevitably think of this trick that Li Jue used.

One of the generals in the tent said: "General Ming is very worried about this, and the last general also has this concern."

Guo Si took a look and saw that the person who spoke was Yang Mi, a general of Zhonglang.

However, since Li Jue and Guo Si are in power in the imperial court, they are already the third dukes themselves, so they naturally give generous rewards to the generals under their account. Now, as follows, the two of them are the only generals in the middle. There are a large number of each. If nothing else, the twenty or so middle and high-ranking generals under Guo Si's subordinates who are in the tent at the moment, those with the military rank of Zhonglang generals, account for nearly half of them, and the rest are either partial generals or generals. The generals, or those who were slightly lower than the generals of Zhonglang, were of the same rank as the generals of Zhonglang, and they were all captains of two thousand stones.

Guo Si asked Yang Mi and said, "You also have this worry? Then tell me, do you have a solution to solve this worry for me?"

Yang Mi said: "General Ming knows that the wall of the chariot and cavalry has been built for the past two years, and it is very strong, but he can't close the camp, and he will keep the camp and defend himself, but the last general has no good plan. "

Guo Si then asked the rest of the generals, "Can you have any countermeasures?"

The rest of the generals look at me and I look at you, but there is nothing that can be done.

There are basically two ways to overcome the enemy and win, one is to attack and the other is to use tactics.

In the current situation, it is a bit difficult to use tactics, so there is only a strong attack, but Li Jue Yingjian, Guo Si has personally supervised the battle in the past few days, and he is still unable to attack. .

Seeing that all the generals were unable to do so, Guo Si stroked his beard and said, "I have a solution."

Yang Mi and the others cast their gazes on Guo Si's face.

Yang Mi asked, "Dare to ask the general, what are the good strategies for the general?"

Guo Si said: "Two people fight, and neither can beat the other. Let me ask you, who's attitude is the most important at this time?"

Yang Mi and others were puzzled by Guo Si's intentions.

A general asked: "What do you mean by this general?"

This general spoke with a loud voice and a strong Liangzhou accent. His name was Wu Xi, and he was one of the brave generals under Guo Si.

Guo Si said: "Although we can't defeat Li Jue's fortress, but if we get the help of the emperor, ask the emperor to issue an imperial decree to Li Jue, rebuke him, and make him surrender to me? ... What will happen if you wait?"

Wu Xi said, "Call the emperor to issue a decree, rebuke the chariot and make him surrender to General Ming?"

Guo Sixiao looked a little complacent, looked left and right, stroked his beard and said, "Yes, what do you think of my strategy?"

Wu Xi said: "But the general is the emperor's decree. What if he doesn't listen to the chariot?"

Guo Si widened his eyes and said, "Dare you not obey the emperor's decrees? If he doesn't obey, he is a traitor, a traitor! At that time, I can call on the troops in Guanzhong, as well as Zhang Ji, Yang Ding, Duan Xun and others come to help me and fight him together! I can't attack his camp with all my troops, and I can't take down the troops of Guanzhong and Zhangji. I don't believe that I can still beat his camp!"

"Guanzhong various armies", Guo Si refers to those large and small warlords all over the Sanfu counties.

The generals looked at each other.

Wu Xi muttered to himself, scratched his head and said, "I forgot that the emperor still has such a good use."

It has been four or five years since Dong Zhuo took power, and now Li Jue and Guo Si have been in a row. The emperor has become like a puppet, like a puppet. In the past, what Dong Zhuo said, now what Li Jue and Guo Si say, the emperor has to listen. What, for a long time, he has no authority at all, but he is a rude person like Wu Xi. He has long ignored the emperor and did not take the emperor's words seriously, but at this time, after listening to Guo Si's words, I just remembered , It turns out that the emperor also has such a use! No wonder he was surprised and surprised.

Guo Si asked the generals and said, "What do you think of my strategy?"

The generals were full of praise, and all replied, "This is a great strategy, general."

Yang Mi raised a question, asked Guo Si, and said, "It's just a general. If the emperor refuses to issue this decree, how can he live?"

Guo Si snorted and said, "You are not willing to issue this decree?" His eyes were filled with prestige, he looked at the generals, and said, "Wait for your orders!"

Yang Mi, Wu Xi and the others bowed in response, waiting for Guo Si's order.

Guo Si said: "Let's go out of the camp tomorrow and attack Li Jue's camp as usual, but tomorrow's battle can be feigned. After all Li Jue's attention is drawn to the offensive of our army outside the camp, where is Wu Xi?"

Wu Xi stepped out of the queue, and responded sternly: "The end is here!"

Guo Siling said: "You lead your infantry and horses, rush into the city, and invite the emperor to my camp."

Hearing this, Yang Mi was stunned for a moment, then she was shocked, and said, "Do you want the general?"

Guo Si smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that the emperor will not issue an decree and order Li Jue to surrender to me? Then I will invite him to my camp, I will look at him in front of him, and ask him to surrender to me. I write the decree! I don't believe it, even if he doesn't want to, he will dare not to write it!"

Wu Xi received the order loudly.

Yang Mi was dumbfounded.

...

After the military meeting was over, Yang Mi came out of Guo Si’s tent, and Yang Mi returned to his own camp, entered the tent, and walked around the tent with his hands behind his back, looking worried and sighing.

His younger brother was in the tent. Seeing Yang Mi's attitude, he asked him, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Yang Mi's younger brother was not eligible to attend the meeting in the tent, so I didn't know that Guo Si decided to hold the emperor hostage to his camp.

Yang Mi briefly talked to him about this matter, and after speaking, he said worriedly: "The general is so daring that he actually wants to hold the emperor hostage. If this matter is done by the general, I am afraid that not only the general, but also me, will also be punished by the world. People are scolded, and they are regarded as chaos by the world

Dear, this chapter is not over, there is still another page ^0^I am a thief. "

Coercing the Son of Heaven into the camp is of two different natures than controlling the state.

Although they all ignore the majesty of the emperor~www.wuxiaspot.com~, the former is far more serious than the latter. In the latter case, at least the emperor still lives in the palace, and is nominally the head of the Han family, but if the emperor is held hostage into his own camp, it will be different. It is equivalent to tore off the last layer of fig leaf covering the emperor's body and the ethics of monarchs and ministers directly and roughly, which is no different from conspiracy.

Yang Mi was different from a rough person like Wu Xi. He was from a local surname and had read books, so he knew what the consequences of Guo Si's actions would be. Even if Guo Si can accomplish this with his troops and horses, in the end, Guo Si will definitely pay the price, and this price is probably not only Guo Si himself, but maybe even him His children and Yang Mi will all be implicated.

Yang Mi's younger brother was taken aback and knew the seriousness of the matter, so he asked in horror, "Brother, what should we do?"

Yang Mi said: "The general has made up his mind. I have persuaded him. He doesn't want to listen. What else can I do? I can only take one step and see one step."

But that night, Yang Mi was so worried and couldn't sleep, one person sneaked out of Guo Siying, went straight to the south of the city, and rushed to Li Jueying.

Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
