Chapter 113 White Armor and White Horse
After seeing off Zhu Yuanying, Zhu Zhi came to visit and asked about the matter of the governor of Qinzhou. Xu You smiled and said, "I was about to invite my fourth uncle to come and discuss it. This is Yu Teng's memorial to the court. I ordered someone to copy it. Look, if you have any ideas, you can tell me directly!"
Zhu Zhi took it and felt something was wrong when he looked at the topic. He whispered: "The Memorial on Discussions of Qin and Liang Prefectures for the Court..." Looking through, the content was to ask the court to divide Xiliang into Qinzhou and Liang Prefectures. The reasons were very diverse, not only clear in structure, but also extremely convincing.
After a long time, Zhu Zhi put down his memorial, gently rubbed his temples, and said, "What do Qilang think?"
Xu You smiled bitterly and said, "The Fourth Uncle also knows that there are people stationed by various forces in the General's Mansion. Yu Teng is Yu's nephew. His letter did not have my permission. Whether this is his personal political opinion or was instructed by Yu's family, Lu Bo is still investigating. If Xiliang is divided into two states, it is of great importance. The prime ministers in Taiwan Province must also discuss it. The Fourth Uncle should not be anxious and wait for the imperial court's order..."
Zhu Zhi was silent, and Xu You stopped and didn't say anything again. The atmosphere in the room was inexplicably embarrassed. Suspicion was the thousand-year-old orchid growing in the desert. With just a little bit of wind and rain, you can survive greedily and stubbornly, endlessly destruction!
After a long time, Zhu Zhi sighed and said, "Xie Xiwen took the knife that Yu Teng sent, and happened to attack Xiliang. The eyes of the officials of Taiwan Province always stared at the three feet in front of him, and could not see the scenery far away from the mountains and rivers. I think there is no need to wait. The court will accept Yu Teng's memorial. As a minister, he should follow the order, but Qilang," he paused, stood up, his eyes deep and calm, and said, "The Governor of Qinzhou is my last bottom line!"
After being fooled by this, he was not angry and abandoned his official position and was unwilling to return to Beijing to serve. He still insisted on becoming the governor of Qinzhou, even if Qinzhou is no longer the Qinzhou he had planned...
Why exactly?
Xu You pondered: "I just felt wronged by Uncle Fourth..."
Zhu Zhi smiled and said, "It's just for the country, you're not afraid of death, what's the point of grievance?"
Xu You also laughed and said, "Yes, it's just for the country!"
Looking at Zhu Zhi's back as he left, he knew that the honeymoon period of the two had completely ended since they met, and they had a deep gap between them. It was impossible to trust them as much as before. As for whether they would go to confront each other and become enemies, it depends on how far Zhu Zhi has gone!
This is something that Xu You cannot control. Although he is thinking about his old love, he cannot accompany Zhu Zhi to stand on the edge of the cliff and dance. The 800-mile Qinchuan in Guanzhong may be the goal that Zhu Zhi has been seeking throughout his life, but for Xu You, this is just a station on the way, a brief stop. His end is north of the Yellow River, north of Pingcheng, and north of Yinshan.
Go north, go north!
The roots of the Han people were dug up by Rong Di for too long, so that even the Han people in the north forgot the blood flowing on their bodies. Xu You didn’t have time to be vain with those with dissatisfaction. If you are a fellow man, you will be able to walk, and if you separate, you will be apart!
I just hope that this distinction will not become a difference between life and death in the face of swords and weapons!
He Ru walked in from the side room behind and said, "Since I have made it clear to Zhu Zhi, I think the general's mansion will write the documents and ask Zhu Rui to quickly lead his troops back to Chang'an and not to wander around in other counties and eat! If you can't come, you will miss the time and be engaged in military law!"
Zhu Rui led a white horse and iron cavalry out of Ziwu Road, saying that it was haunting the rear of Xiliang, which really turned the land of several counties upside down, but it did not play a very important role in the war situation in Chang'an. After all, the powerful soldiers of Xiliang gathered in Chang'an, and the food and grass were also filled with Taicang, so there was no need to transfer troops from other places to transfer grain.
After conquering Chang'an, Tan Zhuo asked Zhu Zhi about Zhu Rui's position as Sima of the General's Mansion and asked him to return to the team as soon as possible. Zhu Zhi agreed readily, but he still did not see Zhu Rui's shadow.
This is a unit that Zhu Zhi absolutely controls, and is also outside the command system of the General's Mansion. It is a variable that is unclear. He Ru's meaning is very clear. It was given face before, but now the face is torn apart. So I simply ordered Zhu Rui to return to the army. If he doesn't obey, he will do the same. At least he must eliminate this variable in the bud, and then kill the chicken to warn the monkey, so that Zhu Zhi can think about the pros and cons carefully.
Xu You was also a little strange. According to the information from the secret palace, Zhu Rui's white horse and iron cavalry should be between Longdong County and Pingyuan County in the northwest. According to the principle, Zhu Rui did not stay or return. If something happened abnormal, there would be a demon. He nodded and said a little tiredly: "Let Tan Zhuo negotiate with Zhu Zhi. Within seven days, I will see Zhu Rui. By the way, there is also the white horse and iron cavalry!"
Anding County is located in Gaoping County (now Guyuan, Ningxia, not Gaoping in Shanxi). The southeast of the county is the famous Xiaoguan. Xiaoguan is built on the Jinghe Valley. The mountains are steep and the scenery is beautiful. Based on the shoulders of the eight counties, the key points of the three towns have been witnessed by countless bones and tears of conquering people over the past thousands of years.
Wen Ziyou leaned in front of Ma Pass, with a beautiful green robe and a bright star. He chanted softly: "The road back to the middle is dangerous, and there are many beacons in Xiaoguan. Five camps are located in the north, and ten thousand cyclists come out of the West River... Moon marks, look, this is the beacon towers mentioned in the poem. They are built on a high place and are written in Pin. They can not only echo the inner and outer valleys, but also overlook the Jinghe River valley. They are five miles away, and they can see them in full view. Such a dangerous pass, if one man is not open, how can it be broken?"
"It is difficult to break the pass, it is easy to break the heart!" Yuehen smiled and said, "My husband has forgotten that the general of Xiaoguan Hu Jia collected nearly one million yuan of money from the Mingdie Si. Even the most beloved concubine around him was also the silk butterfly planted by the Mingdie Si..."
"Oh, yes, I just handed over the Mingdiesi to the Secretary of the Secretariat, who was very difficult to deal with, and I forgot such an important thing." Wen Ziyou laughed, grabbed his horse's belly and said, "Let's go, enter the pass!"
Juqu Qiangui, who had already received the news, came out of the gate of the Duke Mansion, knelt down quickly and said, "I don't know that the military advisor general is coming, and he will be in a misfortune and be punished by death!"
Juqu Qiangui is Juqu Wugu's fifth son and the only living son. Lu Shuihu is doing business to make a living on the back of a horse. Dead people are just ordinary things. Juqu Wugu has seven sons, two of them have not grown up, and four of them have died in battle. Only five sons survived waves of war and became the most trusted and most valued successor.
This time, Juquwugu brought 20,000 cavalry to Chang'an, and gave Juqu Qiangui three thousand troops to guard Anding Old Village. Wen Ziyou helped him up and whispered: "Sever the irrelevant people, find a hidden place, I have something to say to you!"
Juqu Qiangui was stunned for a moment, waved to the personal soldiers beside him, hurriedly led Wen Ziyou to the mansion, came to a secret room in the backyard, and asked, "Military advisor, what's wrong? How is my father in Chang'an? A few days ago, he wrote to him that the military advisor had surrendered to the Great Chu, and had drunk and talked with him many times, and was very acquainted with me, asking me to serve him with the etiquette of his uncle. If something happened in Chang'an, the military advisor must not hide it from me."
Wen Ziyou took out a jade purple gold knife from his arms and solemnly handed it to Juqu Gan, saying, "Xu You pretended to be kind and righteous, and deceived us. He could not trust the surrendered ministers of Liang Kingdom. Duke Zhangye was arrested by the secret palace. 20,000 Lu Shuihu also asked the Shanzong to lead the mountain sect to the valley outside the city to slaughter them all. Fortunately, the Mingdie Shishi found information in time, so he escaped by chance. It's a pity that he did not rescue Duke Zhangye. However, on the night of the incident, he ordered the dead soldiers to break through the siege and brought me this knife, saying it was a token, and you saw the knife as if you met your father..."
Juqu Gangui was shocked and angry, stroked the sword with his hands, his eyes were about to break, and he shouted: "My son Xu You, how dare you behave like this and bully me, Lu Shui Hu, no one?"
"The rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, let alone the difference between Hu and Han?" Wen Ziyou struck while the iron was hot and said, "Duke Zhangye asked me to tell you immediately to raise troops to rebel and stabilize separatist rule. The greater the momentum, the safer he will be in Chang'an. If he could seize the danger of Xiaoguan and defeat the Chu army to conquer the conquest, his life would be saved!"
"Ah? Why is this?" Juqu Gangui learned the bravery of the Hu people, but not the cunning of his father. He looked at Wen Ziyou with a eager look and asked him to give advice.
"Why did Xu You take action now is because he feels that Chang'an has gradually stabilized and no longer needs us surrendered ministers from Liang Kingdom to help him win people's hearts. But if he is released to the local area, he is afraid of being harmed by it, so he imprisoned Zhangye Duke and slaughtered Lu Shuihu in order to eliminate future troubles forever. However, you still have 3,000 troops in Anding County. The Juqu family is deeply rooted and deeply loved by the people. It has Xiaoguan as a barrier, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The reason why Xu You did not kill Zhangye Duke is to keep it just in case. As long as you start a momentum and defeat the Chu army again, he will definitely invite Zhangye Duke to surrender you..."
"Bah! Fuck him!" Juqu Gangui cursed: "I've been fooled by the Southern Man once, but will I be the second time?"
"The surrender is definitely not, but we can negotiate terms with Xu You slowly. The more stable you defend, will other counties be willing to be ridden by the southerners? I just need to let the Mingdiesi lobby everywhere, and at least seven or eight counties can win over the joint storm. The more chaotic the situation, the more anxious Xu You will be. Then you can find a way to save Zhangye Gong back..."
Wen Ziyou's mouth was benefited by Su Qin and Zhang Yi. Juqu Gangui held a treasure knife in his hand and paced back and forth in the secret room. After more than ten rounds, his lips were bitten and bleeding, but he was unaware of it. After thinking about it, Wen Ziyou only pointed to the road and stopped suddenly, saying, "Military advisor, I can't believe you. I'm very serious. I'd better send someone to Chang'an to inquire. If my father is really arrested, I will immediately raise an army to rebel against him!"
"It's too late!" Wen Ziyou said helplessly: "Zhu Rui has already brought troops to arrest you. It is estimated that he will arrive at Xiaoguan in two hours. If you don't rebel, he will ask for entry into the pass to repair on the grounds of the General's Jun order. Will you let it go?"
"What? Zhu Rui? Aren't his white horse and iron cavalry still eating in Longdong County?"
Wen Ziyou shook his head and said, "That's a bully! The White Horse Iron Cavalry should have passed Wu's last night and arrived at the foot of Fanting Mountain to calculate the strength of his feet. It's time to come today!"
Juqu Gangui rushed out of the secret room and shouted: "Come here, please let Hu Jia go into seclusion and no one is allowed to enter and exit. Scouts will be sent to find out that there will be cavalry coming to Fanting Mountain!"
One hour later, the scouts rewarded him. Sure enough, more than a thousand iron cavalry came sneaking towards Gaoping, walking more paths and hidden places. If the scouts hadn't been careful, they would have almost missed it.
"What a thief! What a thief! Xu You, I'll join your mother!"
There was no doubt about Juqu returning home, so he immediately ordered people to raise a flag, cut off the sheep's head and swore, and to rebel with the title of restoration of Liang. At the same time, he accepted Wen Ziyou's suggestion and sent an envoy to Chang'an to send the proclamation to attack Xu so that Xu You would throw a rat and dare not touch Juqu Wugu's nose.
"I think the general will go to Xiaoguan to take charge. Zhu Rui's white horse and iron cavalry are the most powerful cavalry in the Chu army. As long as he is defeated, he will definitely shock Xu You."
"Okay! Listen to the military advisor!" Juqu Gangui fought bravely and was not afraid of war. He heard that, and he was just right. He immediately entrusted Gaoping City to Wen Ziyou to guard him, and brought a thousand cavalry to Xiaoguan for reinforcements.
