Chapter 35 The water is muddy
On the one hand, the emperor summoned King Hejian Huiluo, and on the other hand, he was urging Wang Sheng to prepare for war.
Wang Sheng knew in his heart that the soldiers of the North Camp would have to return to urge the army to prepare for war. If there were no soldiers of the North Camp, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers under Wang Sheng would be very worrying.
but...
Even if it is worrying, it can still be achieved.
and...
If there were no soldiers in the Northern Camp, Wang Sheng would inevitably expand his army. The soldiers he absorbed would not be completely loyal to the emperor.
Since you want to move, you might as well move your hands and feet a little bigger.
...
At this moment, in Chang'an City, when the King of Hejian was summoned by the emperor, he immediately summoned all his staff members.
It was said that it was a question of advice, but in fact, the King of Hejian could not go to Luoyang.
Going to Luoyang now is no different from seeking death.
He summoned everyone to ask about the preparations for the army.
and...
He wanted to inquire in person. The servant army led by Shi Le almost ravaged the Qin Yong land. Until now, he has not fully recovered.
Once the news of his rejection reached Luoyang, the emperor would definitely send troops to come. At that time, the general who led the troops would not know who it was. If it was Marquis of Guangyuan...
The King of Hejian felt a little upset.
"The king, you might as well be with the emperor of Luoyang, and drag it up first, and the subordinates go to gather people. In addition, the king can also win the support of the Xianbei people. If the Xianbei people assist from the side, the king will not be afraid of the emperor of Luoyang. Even if the Marquis of Guangyuan comes, what can we do?"
Zhang Fang's words obviously meant to the heart of King Hejian.
"You are right. You must unite with the Xianbei people. With my staff in Qin Yong's land, I am afraid I am not a match for Guangyuanhou."
The King of Hejian looked at the Changshi and said, "This matter is left to the Changshi."
The chief of the Hejian Prince's Mansion rubbed his white beard and nodded slightly.
"The subordinates must do their best. However, it may take several months to go to the grassland. The king would better delay until the beginning of the next year and make a statement. After all, the situation on the grassland is very complicated now. If you want to motivate those aliens, it will take time. If you motivate them and ask them to send troops, it will take time."
"Don't you worry, aren't it just a snake with the emperor's son? I hesitated for a few days, and then sent a letter to agree, and drove away from Chang'an and pretended to go towards Luoyang."
At that time, wouldn’t the person in this royal chariot be the King of Hejian?
After a few months, it will take several months to go.
He can also cheat on illness and delay time in the middle.
"When you go on this trip, bring more gold, silver and jewelry. Beautiful ladies must tell the Xianbei people. The life and death of this king will be entrusted to the Changshi."
In response to this, the chief minister of the Hejian Palace only bowed to the Hejian King and did not say anything else.
"General Zhang."
The King of Hejian looked at the general Zhang Fang and said, "You should train more soldiers inside and outside Chang'an City. In addition, recruit all the males who are sixteen years old in Qin Yong. For a little training, even if you fill the storefront."
He has been in the Qin Yong land for many years and has accumulated a lot of food and grass. Now he has recruited hundreds of thousands of people. It is more than enough to eat the food and grass for a few years.
Compared to bringing treasures underground, King Hejian still wants to live a few more years.
Now, it is naturally not the time to care about these treasures.
The preparations for war must be fully prepared!
....
On the other hand, after receiving the letter from Wang Sheng and his messenger, Zhang Hong immediately couldn't calm down.
At the same time, he was very angry.
"Good him, Langya Wang, and Wang Yan, you're really ungrateful!"
He was so humble to the Langya Wang family, but he didn't expect that he would not hold a grudge against the Langya Wang family.
He actually attacked in front of His Majesty!
Good guy!
Do you really think that Zhang Hong is an ordinary person and is like a clay man, and can he let others knead him?
"I don't want to go back to Luoyang now."
"Master, the good news is that Master's family has been sent to Yuzhou by the lord."
"snort!"
Zhang Hong snorted coldly, but at this time, he didn't dare to say bad things about Wang Sheng.
Before, he had an emperor who could rely on him, but now it seems that the emperor wanted to kill him, so the reliance naturally disappeared.
I thought I was born with intelligence and wanted to be the second Guangyuan Marquis to call the wind and rain in the court. I didn’t think that my abilities were really insufficient, and now I am still going to become a traitor.
"Say hello to my lord. Since he wants me to become independent in Yizhou, I am naturally willing. As long as the lord has any instructions, I, Zhang Hong, can go all the way to the mountain of swords and seas of fire."
"If the Grand Marshal wants to be independent in Yizhou, it is probably not that simple. Most of your soldiers are from Beiying, and their families are from Luoyang. The Grand Marshal's family has been placed in Yuzhou by the lord. Where are their families? They plundered countless times, not just to win their wives and children. If the Grand Marshal wants to be independent in Yizhou, he may not be able to keep too many people."
This is indeed a problem.
Zhang Hong's brows only frowned.
"Is there a way to keep these people?"
"Maybe the Grand Marshal can deceive them and let them conquer other prefectures and counties in Yizhou in a short time, and the Grand Marshal can recruit soldiers in Yizhou, or recruit those bandits and expand their army."
The words of the messenger only made Zhang Hong frown even deeper.
Whether it is recruiting bandits or recruiting soldiers on the spot.
It was too difficult for him, Zhang Hong.
after all...
He robbed Fucheng before, and then robbed Chengdu again.
I originally wanted to fight quickly, but I didn’t mean to stay in Yizhou for a long time.
If he wants to stay in Yizhou now, his soldiers will not be enough.
Want to recruit troops on the spot?
It would be great if the local people didn't hate him to death, but how could they still be recruited by him?
As for the bandits, they were Li Xiong's tribe members. Li Xiong was killed by him, how could his tribe members work for him?
Thinking of this, Zhang Hong's head hurts a little.
"What should I do?"
"Master, the people from the Wang family of Langya will come in a few days. They are here to prison and send the General. The General must prepare for this. After all, there are many people in your current army that have been promoted by the Wang family of Langya, or those who have already attached to the Wang family of Langya. Wang Cheng is here and wants to imprison the General to send the General into Luo. If the General resists, there will probably be many voices in the army."
The reason why Zhang Hong was able to say the same thing in the army before was because he stood with the soldiers in the army.
That is the connection between interests.
Now that there is no connection between this interest, Zhang Hong has to consider these realistic things.
"It's only a rumor that the Wang family of Langya wanted to send all prisoners above the lieutenant to Luoyang, and claimed that His Majesty had dealt with all the families of the soldiers in the Northern Camp, demoted the male to slaves, and the female to be regarded as official prostitutes. In this way, the soldiers in the army would be in the same mood as me."
"It's just... this is a rumor after all, and the Grand Marshal may not last long."
"I'm not afraid, isn't there people from the Wang family of Langya? I can't stand on the ground in Yizhou because I've plundered the city. But if I put the charge of plundering the city on the Wang family of Langya and killed Wang Cheng, the hard-working Wang Cheng, it might be able to win back the people's hearts. The same is true for those foreigners of Qiang Di. At that time, I will always gather some soldiers and use the soldiers of the Beiying to defeat all Yizhou."
The keyboard in Zhang Hong's heart was very loud.
"Then my subordinates watched the general take control of Yizhou."
Zhang Hong nodded slightly, but there was no relaxation on his face.
Doing so...
Can you really control Yizhou?
Unknown number...
On that day, under Zhang Hong's arrangement, rumors spread in the army that the emperor wanted to send generals above the lieutenant to Luoyang and had already dealt with the families of soldiers in the North Envoy.
This rumor is false to those who are discerning in their eyes, but under Zhang Hong's fanning of the flames, many soldiers believed it.
After all, people of this era, especially those who served in the army, have never read many books, and most of them do not know a single word.
They are used to following orders. Now the above said that they have dealt with his family, and many people directly believed it.
after...
Zhang Hong dealt with the captain and generals who were placed in the army by the Wang family of Langya, and mixed the soldiers of the Northern Camp, and arranged his personal guards in each joint.
In this way, we can control the entire army.
Later, after Wang Dao and Wang Cheng arrived in Chengdu, they were tied up and sent to the city gate before they could see Zhang Hong.
At this time, many people had gathered at the city gate.
Zhang Hong pointed to Wang Dao and Wang Cheng who were tied up behind him and said, "Originally, I planned to attack the city without any offense. However, Wang Dun, the governor of the Wang family of Langya, forced me to issue an order to plunder the city. Now my conscience is burning day and night, and I am ashamed of the people of Chengdu and Fucheng. Only by killing Wang Dun of the Wang family of Langya, Wang Dao and Wang Cheng can I express my apology. If I do anything about plundering the city in the future, I will definitely take off my neck and head!"
Zhang Hong made a long discussion at the gate of the city, and it was unclear whether he had convinced anyone, but the heads of Director Wang and Wang Cheng were completely cut off.
The two of them fell under the city of Chengdu with unwilling eyes.
After killing Wang Dun and Wang Dao, Zhang Hong immediately recruited troops, and then sent messengers to various places where bandits were occupied by Yizhou, saying that they were going to recruit them.
Afterwards, he and his soldiers from the Northern Camp under him began to conquer Yizhou.
certainly...
Each process is very difficult, but it finally moves towards the development that Zhang Hong expected.
......
Ten days later.
Luoyang.
In Situ's Mansion, Wang Yan fainted immediately after hearing the news.
The so-called four dragons of Langya actually killed three people.
Even if the Wang family of Langya is powerful, this power will not last long.
Because there is no successor.
After being awakened by the slaves in the mansion, Wang Yan seemed to be ten years older.
I saw him sigh deeply, and his whole body seemed to have been sucked dry.
"Alas! I pity my sons of the Wang family of Langya who worked diligently and so talented, they all died in Yizhou. This is the misfortune of the Wang family of Langya, and this is the misfortune of the world!"
At the same time, the Wang family of Langya also hated Zhang Hong very much.
"I am already writing a letter to Zhang Hong, preparing to give him benefits and keep his past refusal. Unexpectedly, he is so ungrateful! Damn, damn! He is doing such a bad thing in Yizhou now, and I must make him pay the price!"
That's right, Wang Yan was about to persuade the emperor to send troops to attack Yizhou and avenge Wang Dun, Wang Cheng and the other two!
certainly...
Wang Yan also hated another person in his heart.
Emperor Sima!
only...
After all, he is the emperor. Even if Wang Yan hates him in his heart, he will not dare to say it out.
The emperor wants to weaken the Wang family of Langya. Now that the handsome man of the Wang family of Langya has died so many times, should you be safe?
If you are uneasy...
Wang Yan's fists immediately clenched.
....
On the other hand, Wang Sheng also learned about the news in the Guangyuan Hou Mansion in Luoyang.
"This Zhang Hong is a little decisive, but this technique is still a bit rough. He killed Wang Dao and Wang Cheng, which directly offended the Wang family of Langya. Wang family of Langya could not let him go. In addition, His Majesty was probably annoyed by him."
On the side, Dai Yuan nodded slightly and said, "Zhang Hong's move is like a conspiracy to rebel. The most important thing is that the soldiers in the North Camp did not come back. That would be tens of thousands of troops. If you conspire to rebel with Zhang Hong, your Majesty's losses would be too great."
Wang Sheng shook his head gently and said, "Zhang Hong does not have this ability. He can eat these tens of thousands of people and leave at most thousands of people. It is already the limit. However,... he may have conquered cities and land in Yizhou for a while and recruited soldiers, hoping that he can gain a foothold in Yizhou."
As for Zhang Hong's battle in Yizhou...
This is impossible.
Even if he has this ability, he doesn't have this opportunity.
The emperor's revenge was quick.
Maybe Wang Sheng, the commander of the Western Expedition Army, will become the commander of the Southern Expedition Army.
This may be possible.
"I originally wanted to let Zhang Hong have private communication with Wang of Langya, but I didn't expect Zhang Hong to be too emotional. Such a person would be difficult to achieve great things."
If Zhang Hong had a private relationship with the Wang family of Langya, Zhang Hong's situation in Yizhou would be better.
Wang Sheng can also grasp a handle for the Wang family of Langya.
pity...
Zhang Hong did not give Wang Sheng this opportunity.
Fortunately, the situation is beneficial to Wang Sheng.
Now the water in the world has been muddy.
Wang Sheng looked towards the emperor, and he murmured softly: "Your Majesty, what will you do?"
Luoyang Imperial Palace.
In Tai Chi Hall.
Emperor Sima Yu is indeed furious now.
So much so that his pale face turned red due to congestion, and he coughed continuously, and even coughed up blood clots.
It's obvious.
Zhang Hong's move made Sima Yu so angry that he died.
In the physical sense, the qi is half dead.
"Where did this guy Zhang Hong get the courage? How dare he? I really misjudged the person. And the people from the Wang family of Langya are so incompetent and incompetent!"
It is true that the emperor wanted to use Zhang Hong's hands to go out to the Wang family of Langya.
But his soldiers in the North Camp are coming back!
Now the soldiers of the Beiying are being coerced, and they are his most elite soldiers!
Chapter completed!
