Chapter 374 The Chaos in Chang'an (6)(1/2)
Chapter 374: Chang'an Rebellion (Sixth)
The sudden heavy snow made the road more difficult.
A vast white field exudes endless loneliness. There is no sign of a person in a hundred miles.
This is the biggest snowfall in Jizhou in the fifteen years since Zhongping.
Although auspicious snow indicates a good harvest, everything is still too much. The snow is too heavy, so big that it is unbearable for the people to bear. Countless houses cannot withstand the pressure, and collapsed in the blizzard, and countless unjust souls have been added.
It's God's punishment, or...
Not only Jizhou, but also the Xianbei tribes outside Bingzhou, Youzhou, and the disaster is even more serious.
Rich and rich, still rich.
But those displaced people froze to death and starved to death.
In the article "Jian'an Yehulu" which has been passed down from later generations, this heavy snow in the first year of Jian'an is called Jian'an snow disaster.
At the end of November, Tian Yu and Pang Tong, who were escorting the cold-proof baggage to the Qihuo Army, offered a plan after observing the Xianbei camp in Danhanshan. While the north wind was fierce, a fire burned all the Gongsun Du San Hundred Miles joint camps.
The beggar army followed the trend and occupied Danhan Mountain.
After this battle, the Qihuo army had no ability to advance eastward, so they had to station troops on the Baishan line and face Gongsun Du across the Rushui River.
*******
Calculate the time, Gu Yong has lived in Sushuang's farm for more than 30 days.
However, there was no news from Dong Qi, which made many people, including Wu Qiu Jian, feel very anxious.
Even the good news from Danhanshan Mountain has become less exciting.
Gu Yong said: "Although Xiping finally seized Danhan Mountain, it was already a big discount in a strategic sense."
Wu Qiu Jian couldn't help but say surprise: "What do you say sir?"
"If Danhan Mountain is still in the hands of Helian, it will be a great victory that my Han Dynasty has never had against the Hu tribe in the past two hundred years. However, Helian died first at the hands of Gongsun Du, and then the entire Xianbei was controlled by Gongsun Du. In a sense, Danhan Mountain has already belonged to the territory of our Han Dynasty. Although Xiping seized Danhan Mountain, it became a dispute between the princes."
Chen Gong sighed, "The Grand Commander made a good game of chess, but in the end he achieved Gongsun Du's reputation, and he was inferior, but he was inferior. Although Gongsun Du lost the Danshan Mountain, the name of killing Hu Ying has been confirmed!"
Since Zhen Yan visited that day, Chen Gong has been visiting Tianzhuang every now and then.
Although Chen Gong was not famous in terms of the world, he was indeed talented. Especially the great plan he made in Chang'an made Gu Yong and Wuqiu Jian dare not take it lightly. Both of them knew that there were many capable people in this world, and some were famous all over the world, while others were not happy to make friends. Chen Gong was one of them.
"I heard that evil tiger went south?"
Gu Yong took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the evil tiger in the northern part of Youzhou would end up like this."
"Yes, Cao Cao is afraid he will be more wings from the tiger with the help of the evil tiger."
"Not necessarily!" Chen Gong said: "Although Cao Cao was a hero at that time, how could that evil tiger be an ordinary person? In terms of official rank, Lu Bu was the general of the court, the governor of Youzhou, and the Marquis of Wen... Cao Cao is now just Marquis Feiting and General Zhendong. It is afraid that it will be difficult for the two to get along for a long time. It only depends on whether Cao Mengde has the ability to subdue dragons and tigers."
Gu Yong and Wu Qiu Jian couldn't help but nod.
Yes, then Lu Bu is a rebellious person, and has been in the top position for a long time. Can he easily surrender to Cao Cao?
I'm afraid it's very difficult!
When Gu Yong mentioned the evil tiger, he couldn't help but think of another violent tiger.
Putting down the wine glass, he asked softly: "Zhong Gong, do you know where the Grand Governor is now? When will he come back?"
Chen Gong couldn't help but say, "Yes, my boss asked three questions a day, and I was so annoyed."
"But even if the lord comes, how can you tell him to stop the marriage?"
Wu Qiu Jian frowned and said, "Sir, you should know that this place is not Guanzhong after all. Even if the lord comes, how can he stand out?"
Chen Gong smiled calmly, "The Palace has already made plans for this matter."
"I hope to hear it carefully!"
Chen Gong hesitated for a moment, looked at Wu Qiu Jian and Gu Yong, and gritted his teeth and said, "In fact, this matter also concerns how the Grand Governor returns to Guanzhong. Now, there are heavy troops guarding every intersection leading to Hedong. Even if Yuan Shao doesn't want to turn against the Grand Governor, he will probably not easily magnify the Supernor back. Although Su Weng and the others have their own ways, they are not safe enough."
"That's right!" Wu Qiu Jian nodded in agreement.
Chen Gong said this well. Although it is a good choice to go from Jizhou to Hedong, it is also an adventure.
Gu Yong said: "Public platform, why not speak out directly?"
Chen Gong smiled, "In fact, the biggest problem of returning to Hedong is in Shangdang. I want to ask the Grand Governor to rob Yuan Xi on the way. In this way, Yuan Shao will inevitably be furious and will mobilize troops from all over the country, including those from Shangdang, to be mobilized to investigate the murderer... and at this time, the checkpoints to Hedong will also loosen."
Gu Yong understood...
Chen Gong had a time difference at this time, and he used the mobilization of troops from both places to break through the defense of Shangdang and his place.
only……
Gu Yong and Wu Qiu Jian looked at each other, and a trace of doubt arose in their hearts.
Chen Gong saw the two of them and said immediately: "Of course, Miss Mi can't continue to stay in Zhongshan. The Grand Governor can rob the governor with Miss Mi when Yuan Xi married Miss Mi. First, the Zhen family can get rid of the connection, and second, Miss Mi can serve as the contact person for the Zhen family to serve the Grand Governor, and the Su and Zhang families, as the Grand Governor."
It was very beautiful, but in fact, Zhen Mi was equivalent to the hostages of the Zhen family and went to Guanzhong.
I'm afraid the hostages to Guanzhong are not just Zhen Mi. Once the news is revealed, the Zhen family will not be able to escape death.
From this moment on, the future of the Zhen family has been closely linked to Guanzhong.
Gu Yong pondered for a moment and said softly: "Miss Mi went to Guanzhong, but I wonder how the Zhen family got rid of Yuan Shao's control?"
The implication is that Zhen Mi is just an excuse for Yuan Shao to annex your old Zhen family. Even if he is not a relative, his old Zhen family can escape Yuan Shao's plan? I'm afraid it's not that simple, Yuan Shao will never give up.
Chen Gong sneered, "Yuan Tan, don't worry, the old Zhen family can stay in Zhongshan for more than a hundred years, so how can it be without any means? Although Yuan Benchu dominates Jizhou, if he wants to fight with the old Zhen family, he will be afraid that he will be very uncomfortable then."
Gu Yong and Wu Qiu Jian were both born in the aristocratic family.
Naturally, I know that the aristocratic race is based on the foundation of the local area. Chen Gong said it right, but Zhen Yi is not an Yi person.
*******
That night, Gu Yong and Wu Qiu Jian slept very late.
Chen Gong's words during the day were still echoing in his ears, and both of them were thinking about the possibilities here.
At midnight, the cold wind whistles.
The snow was falling heavily, but it was getting heavier and heavier.
The snow on the road can already cover the calves, horses, vehicles, and even passers-by, making it particularly difficult to walk.
In the study, Gu Yong and Wu Qiu Jian were talking about things.
Suddenly, a creaking sound came from outside the door. I immediately lifted the curtain, but Su You walked in from outside the house.
"Brother Su, it's so late, haven't you rested yet?"
"Mr. Gu, Zhonggong, follow me quickly, the lord has arrived!"
"What?"
When Gu Yong heard the news, he couldn't help but feel excited. Wu Qiu Jian even shouted and grabbed Su You's arm, "The lord is here? Where is it?"
"Zhonggong, don't be excited... The lord did not arrive in Zhongshan, but settled in Zhongren Pavilion. My father sent someone to deliver the letter. The lord would not come to Zhongshan. When the snow slowed down, he would turn from Zhongren Pavilion to Quyang and go straight to Changshan."
Wu Qiu Jian was stunned!
Logically speaking, the lord should have gone to Zhongshan first to meet, why did he change the way at Zhongrenting?
On the contrary, Gu Yong quickly understood Dong Qi's intention. It seemed that Xiping should be for the sake of safety and did not want to get too close to the Su and Zhang families so that they would not be able to see the flaws, so he chose to change the route to Shangquyang at Zhongrenting.
Compared to more than ten years ago, Xiping's ideas have obviously become more meticulous.
He immediately told Wu Qiujian what he thought, and then immediately awakened Su Fei, asking him to take his family and guards with him and then set off. Under the guidance of Su You and Zhang Zun, he and Wu Qiujian set out first and headed to Zhongrenting.
"Mr. Gu, do you want to notify the Zhen family?"
Gu Yong frowned, pondered for a moment and shook his head and said, "No, too many people should know about this. We have seen Xiping."
"Here!"
Before he knew it, Wu Qiu Jian had already regarded Gu Yong as the leader.
In fact, in terms of experience and planning, Gu Yong is obviously much more intelligent than Wuqiu Jian.
Moreover, Gu Yong is Dong Qi's senior brother. In terms of intimate relationships, Wu Qiu Jian also has to focus on Gu Yong.
After the discussion was made, everyone set off overnight.
Zhongren Pavilion is located under the Hengshui River, between Shangquyang, Shangquyang and Zhongshan Kingdom (now near Tang County, Hebei). It did not take long to get from Zhongshan Kingdom to Zhongren Pavilion. However, due to the difficulty of walking, Gu Yong and others set out on the second day of the day and arrived at Zhongren Pavilion at dawn. At this time, the heavy snow like goose feathers had stopped.
The sky is blue and very clear.
Gu Yong and his party dismounted outside a farm located on the bank of Hengshui.
Su You stepped forward and said, "The villain Su You, on the order of his father, came to meet."
Above the Tianzhuang Gate Tower, there were guards dressed in a warrior dressed in Zhuang Ding. In a short while, the village gate opened and a group of people walked out of the Tianzhuang. There were about a dozen people. The two leaders were dressed as generals, while the other was wearing strong clothes, covered with a black cloak, and their figure was quite thin and clear. The cheeks were like cutting a knife and axe, with clear edges and corners.
"Mr. Su, Mr. Zhang, lord is welcome!"
As he spoke, the man glanced at Gu Yong, slightly stunned, showing a familiar expression, "This one is..."
"You are... Dong Tie?"
