The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Vol 10 Chapter 229: Highway humiliation and refusal (1)

When they entered Xun Zhen's tent, the two of them took their seats, and the officials served soup.

Xun Zhen asked the servants to go out, and Dian Wei was asked to stand at the door, so that no one else was allowed to enter without permission.

Zhang Yang respectfully knelt on the seat and said to Xun Zhen, "Ming Gong, what Yang Shicai said..."

Xun Zhen raised his hand, motioned him to stop talking, stroked his short moustache, lowered his eyes, and said slowly and thoughtfully, "There are many black mountain thieves in Jizhou Prefecture, and the right general is unable to do so because of the thieves. When I came to see you, although I could not help but lose my respect to Your Majesty, it was also the heart of Quanquan and love for the people. The general army said that the right general is unpredictable, what does this mean?"

Zhang Yang seemed to have expected Xun Zhen to ask such a question, so he answered Xun Zhen with a sincere expression, and said, "The position of the Sage is not in line with the generals of the right, and everyone in the world knows it, and the generals of the right have always been right because of this. The court was not very obedient, and this is well known in the world. Earlier, the right general had privately discussed that Liu Yu, the former Mu of Youzhou, should be made the emperor to resist the court! Duke Ming had this question, and Yang dared to ask whether it was because Duke Ming thought that Yang had come to see the sage because of the order of the right general; the words he had just said to Duke Ming were also ordered by the right general. , specially to test the Duke?"

Xun Zhen laughed and said: "I don't try to test, and needless to say, it's just that I have heard that the general and the general of the right are friendly, ... The last time the general and Zhang He accompany me in Yinjie, Henan, was the order of the general of the right. Youdao It is 'taboo for the venerable', even if the venerable has had it, the vassal should also cover it up. Besides, the general of the right cannot come to Luoyang to meet the Holy Master because he is trying to pacify the people. , denounce it as unexpected, what is the reason for this? I don't understand it."

Zhang Yang was helpless and aggrieved, and said angrily: "Yang dare not hide Duke Ming, Yang knows that the right general has no intention of being a minister, and although Yang is vulgar, he is not willing to be in the company of such disloyal and unrighteous people! It's all because the right general used his power to bully others, and Yang had no choice but to compromise. How could he be really friendly with him, and really willing to be his minions, to be a swindle for the tiger? Ming Gong, Yang Yi is also a loyal and righteous person! The door. Today, Duke Ming of Qianli Diligent, annihilated Li Jue and Guo Si, two thieves, and shocked the sea. Seeing the great Han Zhongxing in sight, Yang was also very excited. Today, he was summoned by the favor of the Holy Grace. What's more important is that, when I see Duke Ming, the person who does it is willing to do the hard work of Duke Ming, and make a modest contribution to the revival of the great cause of the Han Dynasty."

These words are very sincere, as if they came from the bottom of my heart.

Xun Zhen was amazed secretly, but did not expect that such a martial artist could be so knowledgeable, so he stopped trying to test him, and simply asked directly, saying, "The general has a proposal, I would like to hear it in detail."

Zhang Yang was refreshed and said: "The Duke of Ming rebelled against the riots and entered the court to assist the royal family. This is a feat comparable to the five hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period. However, it is not suitable for Chang'an to be the imperial capital for the time being. The situation is inconvenient, so it is the best policy to move Xu County. Therefore, at an extraordinary time, Duke Ming did something extraordinary, and asked the emperor to move Xu Xu, which has now become an extraordinary achievement. Courage, admiration!"

This call made Xun Zhen more and more amazed, but at the same time, it was also more suspicious.

Zhang Yang's remarks are quite right, but at first, it doesn't seem like what Zhang Yang can say. Both, he also said these words too smoothly, as if they had been rehearsed before. Xun Zhen unknowingly guessed that someone taught Zhang Yang to say these words?

But putting this doubt down for a while, Xun Zhen said calmly, "This is the reason why I asked the saint to move the capital to Xu County, but the general is someone who knows me."

Zhang Yang said: "Yang's humble person, An Gan and Duke Ming are known as confidants? But Yang Gan asked Duke Ming, now that there are many heroes in the sea, the feudal lords are fighting, and the royal family is declining. I don't know what will happen to Duke Ming after the sage moves to Xu County. ?"

Xun Zhen sat upright, asked Zhang Yang, and said, "I'm about to listen to the general's policy."

Zhang Yang said: "Yang dare, please analyze the current situation for Duke Ming first."

Xun Zhen smiled and said, "I am all ears."

Zhang Yang said: "In the current sea, the prefectures and counties are divided, and the heroes are rising together. They all have coveted intentions, and most of them contain the misfortune of the chaotic world. Among them, the most arrogant ones are Nanyang Yuan Road, Jizhou You General, and Xu County is the most arrogant. The benefits lie between the two yuan."

Xun Zhen nodded and said, "The general's analysis is very good. Since the situation is like this, how should I deal with it?"

Zhang Yang looked at the tent door, the tent door was closed, and he knew that there were Xun Zhen's bodyguards and officials guarding the door, but he was relieved, turned his eyes back, and offered his countermeasures, saying: "Now the territory is divided, and there are many heroes. The most fierce one is Er Yuan. Among the two Yuan, the right general is stronger. Although Duke Ming's army is strong and strong, he is strong in the sea, but if he is in a hurry, he will attack the right general, which may be disadvantageous, Yang Yu sees , Among the two Yuan, we should discuss Yuan Gonggong first, because there are two benefits to Yuan Gonggong.”

Xun Zhen said, "Which two benefits?"

Zhang Yang said: "Yuan Gonggong is short-sighted, arrogant, and arrogant, and has no scholar's heart, and the people resent it, and the only people he has occupied so far are Nanyang and Jiangxia, a county and a half, and Liu Jingsheng is his enemy in the south. If Duke Ming ordered Liu Jingsheng to send troops from Xiangyang to the north, and Duke Ming sent a general to attack the south from Yingchuan, the north and the south would attack together, and breaking the Yuan Highway would be as easy as the palm of your hand.

Xun Zhen said: "The one benefit the general said is that it is better to fight Yuan Gonggong than to fight Yuan Benchu."

Zhang Yang said: "Ming Gong Mingjian, Yang is exactly what he meant."

Xun Zhen asked, "Why Erli?"

Zhang Yang said: "These two benefits are that Nanyang County is adjacent to Yingchuan County. After the Yuan Road is settled, Duke Ming can worry about the future, and can still use the imperial edict to order Liu Jingsheng to be restrained from Duke Ming and Duke Ming. The momentum of this can be raised to a higher level, and then wait for an opportunity to attack the right general, and you will have a better chance of winning."

Xun Zhen said: "The second benefit the general said is to enhance my strength."

Zhang Yang said, "Exactly."

Xun Zhen said: "But if Yuan Benchu ​​sent troops from Jizhou to attack me in Yingchuan, or attacked my Yan and Qing when I was attacking Yuan Gonggong in the south, how should I deal with it? It should be noted that Yuan Gonggong and Yuan Benchu ​​are still at odds with each other. My brother is also, and his lips are dead and his teeth are cold. How could he not know it at the beginning? If he helps Yuan Gonggong, then will I not be in a dilemma of being attacked on both sides? , Tian Feng, Guo Tu, are all good strategists; their generals are not few, such as Qu Yi, Chunyu Qiong, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Gao Lan, Zhang He, all of them are able to fight. At that time, I am afraid that I can only withdraw from Nanyang and return it?"

Zhang Yang said: "In Yang's opinion, Duke Ming needn't worry about this."

Xun Zhen asked, "Why is this?"

Zhang Yang said: "Yang has two strategies to dedicate to Duke Ming, which is enough to ensure that Yuan Benchu ​​will not be troublesome when Duke Ming seeks Yuan Gonggong."

"What are the two strategies?"

Zhang Yang said: "One, Gongsun Zan and Zhang Feiyan have not been completely eliminated. Even if the right general sends troops south, it is expected that it will be difficult to get out of the nest. Even if the two are going to be the Ming army in Nanyang, Gongsun Zan has already been taken by the right general. They were defeated, but there were Yan Rou, Xian Yufu, etc. in Youzhou. They were not the former officials of the Yuan clan, and they had no friendship with the right general. Duke Ming only needed a decree from the court, and if they wanted to come, they would definitely obey the will of the sage. , for Duke Ming to contain the right general, and it can also prevent him from helping Yuan Gonggong with all his strength! Third..."

"And the other three?"

Zhang Yang raised his chest and raised his head, and said with a mighty attitude: "Yes, Duke Ming, there are three other things. The third one is that even if Yan Rou, Xian Yufu and others are not enemies of the right generals, they will eventually be defeated by them. , Youzhou got it for the Right General, but Yang would like to be in Hanoi as a fence for Duke Ming, to resist the invasion of the South by the General of the Right! It’s just that Yang’s soldiers are few, and if there is no support at that time, Duke Ming will have to send an army to help.”

Xun Zhen smiled and said, "The general is also a tiger warrior in the state, and it is enough to fight against Qu Yi. If the general is my barrier to the northwest of Yingchuan, I will have nothing to worry about."

——Zhang Yang is from Bingzhou, Quyi is from Liangzhou, Bingzhou and Liangzhou are bordered, and both states have many military generals. In the area of ​​warriors and fierce generals, they have always been called "Bingliang", so Xun Zhen has this One word.

Qu Yi is the most famous general under Yuan Shao today. In terms of his reputation, he is still higher than Yuan Shao's old friend and confidant Chunyu Qiong. It is obvious that Xun Zhen compares him with Qu Yi. Zhang Yang hastened to be humble. After a few words, he continued: "This is a strategy."

Xun Zhen said, "What is the second policy?"

Zhang Yang said: "The second strategy is that the right general regards himself as a noble family and has always been arrogant and arrogant, and regards the heroes of the sea as nothing. After the emperor arrives in Xu County, the Duke of Ming can ask the court to issue an edict and honor him with a high-ranking official. , and honor him with humble words and generous gifts. It is expected that the right general will think that Duke Ming is afraid of him, so he will be satisfied, and he will be unprepared; then Duke Ming will make preparations for battle and rush to take Yuan Gonggong! Now that Nanyang has been conquered, Even if the right general repents, what's the use of the husband?"

Xun Zhen said: "The general's two strategies are to suggest that I use a high-ranking official to numb Yuan Benchu."

"That's exactly what Yang meant."

Xun Zhen smiled and applauded, and said, "To deal with Yuan Benchu's two strategies, the first strategy, the general invites himself to defend against the enemy, and the second strategy, the officials and nobles paralyze them.

Zhang Yang said: "These are the stupid opinions of Yang, and whether they should be used or not, I will also ask the Duke of Ming to take a look. After the Duke of Ming has decided on the Yuan Road, he will gather the people of the five states to take advantage of the prestige of the victorious army, and follow the edict of the Son of Heaven. If they attacked Jizhou again north, Yuan Ben was strong at first, so why not break it? When Yuan was destroyed, the world was divided into three parts. At that time, Duke Ming had already monopolized two parts. The rest were only Liu Zhang in Shu, Ma Teng and Han in Liangzhou. Then, the cadres and Cao Cao's ears of Bingzhou can be passed on. If you still don't know the situation, and if you don't have a court~www.wuxiamtl.com~, there is no need for Ming Gong to ask for it in person. It's enough to separate."

The "five prefectures" refer to Xuzhou, Yanzhou, and Qingzhou that Xunzhen already had, Yuzhou that Sun Ce was currently leading, and Jingzhou that eliminated Yuanhou.

Zhang Yang's overall suggestion was over, and he talked for a long time. His mouth was dry, but he was eager to wait for Xun Zhen's reply, but he didn't remember to take a sip of water, but he waited and waited for a while Come to Xun Zhen to speak.

He quietly raised his eyes, peeped at Xun Zhen's expression, and saw that Xun Zhen was looking at him.

Xun Zhen didn't say a word, and it took a long while to see Zhang Yang up and down.

Zhang Yang couldn't help recalling what he just said, is there something wrong? After thinking about it, he felt that he was right. After all, he had memorized these words four or five times before and after, and he had memorized them by heart.

Leng Buding heard Xun Zhen speak, and said, "This strategy is either a general or a strategy. Who is the one who offered this strategy to the general?"

Zhang Yangcang raised his eyes to look at Xun Zhen again, and Xun Zhen's smiling face came into view.

Xun Zhen saw the secret behind him, Zhang Yang blushed, and he hurriedly got up and bowed down, saying, "The general should be really smart! Dong Zhao also."

Xun Zhen asked, "But Dong Gongren of Jiyin?"

Zhang Yang replied: "It is this gentleman who is speaking to Duke Ming."
