Three Kingdoms

The breeze is gentle.

Logically speaking, this should be a season that makes people feel comfortable. There is neither the severe cold of winter nor the boredom of plum rain. It is not even far from the scorching heat of summer. It should be a time full of hope, but just in At such a point in time, something unpleasant happened.

In the spring of March of the third year of Taixing, no one thought that a relatively small figure like Wang Can would stir up the changes in the entire Heluo River.

It may be an exaggeration to say that this change has endangered the foundation of the entire Han Dynasty, but it does reflect the root problems of the entire Han Dynasty in some aspects, leading to a series of things that are either embarrassing, sad, or... It is a sad reaction, and it often becomes a place for later research.

If at first...

From the perspective of a latecomer, from the perspective of a bystander, one can naturally analyze and judge calmly and without any subjective emotions. However, when everyone was a party involved at the time, trying to be calm was like a machine. How easy is it to be sober as a saint?

When Fei Qian received the urgent military information from Hangu Pass, he couldn't help but be stunned for a while, not knowing what comment he should make.

When Wang Can was sent to Xu County, it was somewhat of a coping mechanism. After all, there was a big debate in Qinglong Temple at that time. If Wang Can, a guy with a certain reputation, was allowed to mess around in Chang'an, it would be easy to drag the original proposition direction into the royalist proposition, so that the original plan would be seriously affected. , so Fei Qian simply sent Wang Can directly to Xu County. He originally thought it was a move of four ounces to move a thousand catties, but he did not expect that this "four taels" really turned into a "thousand catties"...

"Shiyuan, Gongda, do you think Zhongxuan's strategy is feasible?" Fei Qian forwarded the military information reported by Tai Shi Ci to Pang Tong and Xun You.

Pang Tong looked at it, frowned, and said nothing.

Xun You stayed in Xu County for a long time, but now he saw such a military letter in Chang'an. He was a little dazed for a moment, and then quickly returned to normal. He read it carefully and pondered for a long time. He couldn't help but shook his head and said: "Wang Zhongxuan...is too dangerous..."

"Lord..." Xun You took a few small objects on the table and placed them to indicate, while saying, "This is Xu County... Fifteen miles northeast of the city, there is a large camp with three thousand soldiers." , usually the army is stationed there, but if something changes, they can arrive in Xu County in a short while. The person they lead is Yan Mingkuang, who is from Yingchuan... There is also a garrison in Yangcheng, directly under the command of General Xiahou, more than five thousand, although most of them are infantry However, there are also horse troops, about five hundred... In addition, in Xu County, there is a general named Dian Nong Zhonglang who is in charge of the county soldiers. His surname is Ren Mingjun, and his wife is Cao Sikong's younger sister..."

After a long list of words, Xun You finally said: "According to Wang Zhongxuan's plan, it is necessary to mobilize people from Xu County to the south of the city, and when His Majesty leaves the palace and is about to leave the city, he suddenly launches an attack, disrupts the city, seizes the west gate, and goes out without stopping all the way." , and we need to avoid Luoyang and Yangcheng to collect troops and horses...this, this...hey..."

To put it simply, it's like having two, five, and eight in your hand, and then the opponent has already drawn gold and drawn cards. Not only does he have to eat and touch to draw a kong, but he also doesn't allow the opponent to have a chance to draw any cards... …

This difficulty coefficient is at least 5.0, right?

Those guys in Xu County were deceived by Wang Can. Fei Qian didn't think it was strange. Most likely, Wang Can said that Fei Qian would be the one to take the lead in this operation and that there would be a large number of soldiers and horses to cooperate. All he needed was Liu Xie to squeeze out of the fence. , then everything will be given to Oli, and there is no need to consider the remaining problems on the road...

For these people in Xu County, Wang Can would definitely not dare to tell the truth, because once he told the truth, no one would dare to take such a big risk. The question is, if this is the case, why did Wang Can adopt such a risky strategy?

Pang Tong had a sullen face and suddenly cursed: "Wang's arrogance, you have ulterior motives!" If you follow a certain opinion, it is just a show of saving the emperor, but in fact he wants to lead us into a fight with Cao Sikong! 』

Pang Tong said angrily: "The emperor has no real power under Xu, and Cao Sikong has sole control of the court. Over time, the world will naturally only know the Cao family and not the emperor... If Wang Zhong declares that this strategy can be achieved, there will be turmoil. Even if it cannot be achieved, it can be ordered The whole world knows that Your Majesty wants to escape! Why do you want to escape? ! The Cao family must be held responsible! 』

"We have no choice but to save him!" If you don't do it, there will be a lot of criticism in the world and your reputation will be damaged! But if we send troops..." Pang Tong patted the table, "Wang Zhongxuan only cares about his own reputation and ignores the peace of the people. He wants to provoke a fight between Guan and Yu, and use millions of flesh and blood to rebuild the weight of the royal family! This man is so bold that he would not regret his death! 』

Xun You was stunned for a moment, then sighed: "In this case, Wang Zhongxuan... may have a death wish..."

Pang Tong opened his mouth and finally shook his head.

After listening to Pang Tong and Xun You's analysis, Fei Qian could see the outline of the entire incident more thoroughly. Thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help but feel a little numb.

In this world, you really cannot underestimate anyone...

Speaking of which, Fei Qian's own reasons may be partly responsible. Wang Can is not a fool, so Wang Can must be well aware of Fei Qian's ambiguous attitude towards welcoming the emperor. Therefore, under such conditions, Wang Can Can was forced to take risks and made a trap that involved everyone!

First of all, he entered Xu in a high profile, causing everyone in Xu County to think that Wang Can represented the Hussar general. Then he praised the Hussar, promoted the loyalty of the Hussar, etc. In addition to erecting the fact that Wang Can himself was the General of the Hussar, In addition to being the spokesperson of the Cavalry General Fei Qian, people in Xu County also felt the strength of the Cavalry General...

Then came a series of "deceptions" by Wang Can, which shaken the people in Xu County who were originally under Cao Cao's rule, either restless, dissatisfied, or for some other reason, and then felt that as long as the emperor Liu If the Xie Xie created Xu County, it would be a huge achievement and it would be like a meteoric rise.

Indeed, if Fei Qian commanded the army and roared out from Hangu, even if Cao Cao stationed troops and horses in Luoyang and Yangcheng, he still would not be able to compete with Fei Qian's pure cavalry in a short period of time, nor could he form such a powerful force. Effective obstruction, so most people in Xu County, under Wang Can's deception, probably thought that as long as the emperor was taken out of Xu County, everything would be fine, and the difficulty suddenly dropped to a level that they found acceptable.

But these people did not expect that Wang Can actually killed the cavalry general Feiqian first and then reported it later. There was no discussion at all, and there was no precise coordination...

Therefore, if Fei Qian had not dispatched, or if he had dispatched but failed to arrive, the entire rescue operation would have failed. But the problem is that it failed, and it also achieved part of Wang Can's goal.

For Cao Cao, the Emperor's escape implicitly proved that what Cao Cao did before was not the Emperor's original intention. It also completely proved that Cao Cao did not respect the Emperor, but was holding the Emperor hostage...

If Fei Qian does not send troops, it will be equivalent to tearing off the fig leaf of his original loyalty. The so-called higher the praise, the worse the fall...

For Liu Xie, just like the meat he snatched tastes particularly delicious, if no one pays attention to Liu Xie and no one wants him, then Liu Xie's status will naturally become lower and lower, and eventually he will become as good as Common people. Only when powerful ministers and powerful ministers fight against each other can the emperor have room to maneuver and take advantage...

A strategy like Wang Can's that involves everyone can only be used when the information is poor. However, as long as several parties meet, they will naturally know which of Wang Can's previous words and deeds are true. Yes, those were false, so Xun Youcai said that Wang Can was probably already determined to die. Because Wang Can has deceived everyone. After this incident, no matter success or failure, no matter where he is, there will be no place for Wang Can.

Therefore, whether the entire plan is risky or not, and whether it is feasible or not, is meaningless to Wang Can, because in the end, whether it is success or failure, Wang Can can accept it.

"So," Fei Qian stood up, "Let's send out troops!" 』

"Lord..." Pang Tong hesitated. Could it be that he really went to meet the emperor Liu Xie who didn't have much benefit but could make trouble in his own head?

"Order Xu Gongming to coordinate with Shi Yuan to guard the third auxiliary, Zhang Wenyuan and Zhao Zilong each order 3,000 cavalry to go out with him!" Fei Qian waved his hand and gave the order. "Gongda knows the terrain of Yuzhou, is he willing to join the army?" 』

"I will obey my lord's order." ” Xun You accepted the order with his hands and immediately went to prepare. After all, there are a lot of things to deal with, from gathering soldiers to preparing supplies and supplies. In this era, even though Fei Qian has become a professional soldier, he still can't just leave.

Pang Tong stood aside and couldn't help but sigh as he listened to the drums beating to summon the soldiers.

Fei Qian smiled, he understood Pang Tong's worries, "By the way, Shi Yuan might as well go and prepare the things from the Xianbei Royal Court and the Tibetans and Tibetans, and bring them with you this time..."

"The Lord's intention is..." Pang Tong rolled his eyes twice, suddenly understood, laughed, and said, "That's great!" Let’s do it now! 』

…()…This is a kaomoji dividing line waiting to be filled in…

Xu County Ancestral Temple.

Liu Xie stood speechless in front of the Guangwu series and his father's spiritual tablets.

As the emperor, Liu Xie has actually experienced a lot of big scenes, but unfortunately, most of the big scenes are not decided by him, and he does not even have the right to refuse.

For example, the fire burned Luoyang.

But this time, suddenly, the invisible pressure of "job hopping" and the uncertain worry about the future were weighing heavily on Liu Xie's heart.

Liu Xie was very relaxed when he went to the Chengnan Cultural Club for the first time, because Liu Xie knew that the first time he went there was actually to paralyze Xun Yu and others, and there would be no special changes or anything happening. Since nothing will happen, why be nervous?

So Liu Xie's attitude was very calm and calm at that time.

But this time it's different.

Just like before submitting the resignation report, everything seemed normal, but once a brief letter was submitted, even the colleagues who usually talked and laughed best would create a different atmosphere.

And should we take this step forward?

Liu Xie was confused.

The spiritual tablets on the divine case were also silent, and even the handwriting daubed with gold powder seemed to be restraining its brilliance, not emitting any colors that could misunderstand Liu Xie.

"Your Majesty..." Xiao Huangmen, who had been following him for a long time, knelt beside the door outside the Ancestral Temple and reminded in a low voice, "Your Majesty... it's getting late... please go back to the palace to rest..."

Liu Xie suddenly realized that he had been in the Ancestral Temple for such a long time without knowing it. The light outside had gradually dimmed, and the eunuchs serving outside the door had already lit lanterns.

It's time to go back and rest...

Tomorrow is the appointed day.

"Go back to the palace... Okay, go back to the palace... Oops..." Liu Xie nodded slightly and wanted to stand up, but after sitting for a long time, the blood in his legs and feet was inevitably blocked, making it difficult to do so for a while.

Seeing this, Xiao Huangmen quickly kowtowed to the spiritual tablet in the main hall at the door, then walked forward in small steps, arrived in front of Liu Xie, and helped Liu Xie activate the blood vessels in his legs.

"Um……"

The soreness and numbness in his legs reminded Liu Xie of the time when he ran out of Chang'an. It seems that Fei Qian also came from Bingbei and took him to Bingbei among thousands of troops. In this flash, how many years have passed...

The Zhonglang General back then gradually became Zhengxi, and now he has become a Hussar again. So is Fei Qian still the same Fei Qian back then? I hope the sword of ZTE is still sharp.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, are you feeling better?" ” Xiao Huangmen asked while gently squeezing Liu Xie’s numb legs.

Liu Xie moved a few times and felt much better. He nodded and said, "It's better... By the way, you followed me during the Chuping period, right?" 』

Xiaohuangmen bowed his head and reported: "Your Majesty, this slave entered the palace in March of the second year of Chuping..."

"Yes, I remember that when I left Chang'an, you were with me..." Liu Xie thought of the dim night sky, the chaotic scene, the trampled brocade, and the cold light. sword and gun, his face couldn't help but twitch.

The chaotic situation that year left Liu Xie unforgettable, but Liu Xie never thought that after so many years, he would probably have to do it again...

Is it worth it?

Xiao Huangmen, who was concentrating on squeezing Liu Xie's legs and rejuvenating his blood vessels, did not notice the change in Liu Xie's face. He still lowered his head and said softly: "Your Majesty, this is my slave's blessing..."

With the help of Xiao Huangmen, Liu Xie stood up, shook his legs, and felt that he was almost recovered, so he said, "Okay, let's go back to the palace..."

Xiao Huangmen whispered to the outside and helped Liu Xie out.

"Follow me back then..." Liu Xie chuckled softly, and then said as if he was joking, "I will follow you closely in the future..."

"Of course this servant will always follow Your Majesty..."

The thin voice and the swaying lantern rippled gently in this palace as silent as a deep pool, but I don’t know how far this ripple can spread...
