Chapter 410 Dong Xiping went to the meeting alone

The north wind is in a hurry!

Before I knew it, Danhan Mountain had entered late autumn, and the weather gradually became cold and a bit bit biting.

Two guests came to He Qi's big tent.

These two characters are very particular. One is Feiwo, the prefect of Wangbei County, and the other is Feiwo's teacher, Huang Chengyan. After living in the North of Sebei for a long time, Huang Chengyan also went to the Western Regions specifically for nearly a year.

The purpose is to visit Liu Hong, because Liu Hong is old and is not as good as Huang Chengyan in both mental and physical aspects. Both of them are proficient in mathematics, one is good at mechanical techniques, while the other is proficient in astronomy and geography.

However, Huang Chengyan's trip was at the invitation of Liu Hong.

After staying in Han'an City for two months, Huang Chengyan and Liu Hong talked about many things, including their views on Dong Qi and the current situation of the entire Han Dynasty. Liu Hong seemed generous and did not care about the future of the Han Dynasty.

"Since ancient times, there has been no long dynasty... Xia fell and Shang rose, and it was only seven hundred years until Zhou. Although Zhou had a country of eight hundred years, it was still divided and merged and wars continued. The tyrannical Qin swept across the six kingdoms, but in just twenty years, it has been four hundred years since Emperor Gaozu replaced him, Wang Mang usurped the throne, Guangwu revived... It has been four hundred years now."

Liu Hong said peacefully: "As for how long the Han Dynasty can survive in the future, why should you care too much? When it should exist, it should exist; when it should perish, no one can stop it. But it is extremely normal to say that in this world, it will be together for a long time, and when it is united for a long time, it will be divided. At this age of my life, many things will be clear."

"But……"

"Brother Huang, I know what you want to say. What Xiping is doing now is just following this great way. If one day he really takes over the Han Dynasty, I won't blame him. I know that with his temperament, he will eventually leave a glimmer of life for me. So, come what should I come, why force me to stop it?"

Huang Chengyan was speechless too!

He is a dignified Han Dynasty sect, and he can see clearly so clearly. What is he doing for?

Liu Hong invited Huang Chengyan to come, but in order to hand over the revised version of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" he had studied for exhausting his life. You must deliver this to the right person, and Huang Chengyan is undoubtedly a very suitable candidate in Liu Hong's opinion. More importantly, there are some problems in it, and Huang Chengyan needs to check for omissions and fill in the gaps.

Huang Chengyan also solemnly agreed to Liu Hong's request and promised that once the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" is completed, it will be delivered to Dong Qi. For Liu Hong, this is no different from removing the burden in his heart.

After staying in Han'an City for several months, Huang Chengyan returned to Wangbei County.

He wrote a letter to Pang Degong, asking Pang Degong to come forward to dissolve the engagement between Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying, and then invited Pang Degong to Wangbei County to discuss. As for whether Pang Degong came, it was his business and it had nothing to do with Huang Chengyan.

Liu Hong's attitude has a great impact on Huang Chengyan.

Everything depends on the great way, and what it should be... It's better to let it go!

This time, he and Feiwo came to Khanshan, but wanted to talk to He Qi about another very important thing.

Huang Chengyan needs to understand the specific use of Naxiping Crossbow. Although there is data provided by the camp, it is obviously not sufficient.

As for Ferwo, it came for the war that had lasted for nearly a year.

"Public Miao, this war has lasted for too long. Although the beggar army has not made any moves, it has spent countless money and food every day. Wangbei County is a little unable to hold on... I just want to know how long will it last on your side?"

There are many slave soldiers in the Qihuo Army. When there is no war, it is an extremely important productivity in Wangbei County.

But now, this Luoyang war, which has almost spread most of the country, has also affected the production of Wangbei County. He must figure out how long this situation will last before he can make corresponding actions.

He Qi said helplessly: "The Lord is determined to get this face back for the emperor. If the Luoyang war is not over for a day, the beggar army will not be disbanded. As for how long it will take, it depends on the lord's intention. As long as the lord gives the order, I can conquer the entire Youzhou within a hundred days. However, without the lord's order, I dare not act rashly."

Feiwo couldn't help but pat his forehead in embarrassment and fell into deep thought.

"General, a Chang'an envoy came outside the camp and said he had something to ask for a meeting with the general!"

"ah!"

He Qi and others stood up quickly and said, "Hurry up and have a request."

In a moment, a thin man walked into the tent. He was not tall, but he had a pretty appearance. When he saw Feiwo, he was stunned and then smiled, "Premier Fei is here, but he can't help but save the troubles of going to the Sweat Mountain. How can the male seedlings always be good?"

"It's Ziyi!"

He Qi and Feiwo both recognized this person and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Huang Chengyan was still sitting, holding the explanation of the use of Xiping crossbow that He Qi gave him, pondering without saying a word.

Jiang Gan is now appointed as the Secretary of the Chengming Palace. If he uses the explanation from later generations, he will be the office director.

He was responsible for handling various memorials and belonged to Chen Gong's assistant. He suddenly came here, and something big might happen.

"Ziyi, where did the dust of the road come from?"

Jiang Gan smiled and said, "Yecheng!"

"ah?"

"I was in Yecheng and received the secret order of the Lord and told me about important things." As he said that, Jiang Gan glanced at Huang Chengyan.

"Oh, I'm a little tired when you talk!"

Who is Huang Chengyan? How could he not understand what Jiang Gan implies in this look?

He Qi and Feiwo did not stop him. After all, Jiang Gan came and must have something to do. Huang Chengyan’s current identity is very special. Many people have heard about the matter between Huang Yueying and Dong Qi, but the old man has not made a clear statement yet.

The two of them sent Huang Chengyan away and returned to the big tent.

"Ziyi, what business do you do when you go to Yecheng?"

After He Qi said that, he added, "I'm just asking casually. If you don't have a good answer, you don't need to answer."

Jiang Gan smiled, "It was originally difficult to answer, but now... I'm not sure about it. Gan Yecheng is actually trying to persuade Yuan Shao to send troops to Qingzhou. He just dragged on it there for a long time. Only a few days ago did Yuan Shao nod and agreed."

"Affiliate with Yuan Shao?"

Jiang Gan nodded and said, "That's about it. Okay, let's talk about it later. I will convey the lord's order first."

As he spoke, Jiang Gan took out two secret orders from his arms.

"This letter is General Yu Heqi!"

Jiang Gan handed over the secret order to He Qi, and the envelope was covered with a varnish mark in the shape of Dong Qi's troll order.

Then he handed over another letter to Feiwo, "Yuan Shao agreed to use troops in Qingzhou, but the condition is... we must eliminate Gongsun Du and divide Youzhou equally. What should we do, the letter has already stated that Gongmiao can follow the plan. What Zaicheng has to do is to cooperate when General Gongmiao uses troops, and Gongming will take over the line on Dingxiang of the county. The military must end the battle before the New Year, and not delay all kinds of matters after the spring of the next year."

After reading the secret order, He Qi nodded, "Everyone will fulfill his mission!"

"Since that's the case, I still need to return to Chang'an immediately."

"Take care on Ziyi's road!"

Jiang Gan left as soon as he said that, without any ambiguity.

After reading the secret order, Feiwo smiled bitterly and said to He Qi: "What is this method of lord? Since he promised to give Yuyang and Youbeiping to Yuan Shao, why..."

He Qi smiled, "I don't care about this. The order I received was that except for Zhuo County, Youzhou must be controlled by me. As for how to solve this problem, it is naturally worthy of the Lord Chen Gong and others in Chang'an to solve it, and it has nothing to do with me."

"This is not like the lord's method, it's like..."

Favor just said this, but He Qi stopped him.

"Zaicheng, you know and I know it, just understand it in your heart. Don't say some things. The lord will definitely have a deep meaning in his arrangement."

In fact, both Feiwo and He Qi knew very well that this secret order did not come from Dong Qi.

Now that Dong Qi is in charge of the battle in Luoyang, how can he have time to consider the matter in Youzhou? Then there is only one person who can issue this secret order in Chang'an... and only this person can gain the unreserved trust of the lord.

*******

Dagu Pass, also known as Dagukou, is located in Xin'an, Yanshi, and is an important pass from Luoyang to Nanyang, Runan, Xuchang and Yingchuan.

Ninety miles south of Luoyang City, surrounded by mountains and steep mountains, rugged rocks and ravines.

There are mountain roads in the middle, which can connect to the north and south. It is rugged and has a dangerous form, and it has the momentum of one man being at the pass and ten thousand men not opening.

Dagu Pass is a large ditch that lasts fifteen miles long.

There are peaks of Wan'an Mountain to the west, and you can see Yique Pass; there is Xuanyuan Pass in the east, with ditches on three sides and valleys on one side, like a peninsula.

Zhang Heng once said in "Tokyo Fu": Before and after the Mengjindao, Otani directly connects to the front...

Located south of Ogu Pass and bordering Yichuan, there is a village called Macunzhai, which is located in a very remote location.

The wind blew, and the withered leaves fluttered.

Lu Meng sat upright under the old locust tree at the entrance of Macun Village and looked into the distance.

In front of him, there was a round stone table, a fire barn with iron nets, and a pottery basin filled with clear water was placed on it.

The water has already opened, and there are two pots of wine warmed up inside.
