Chapter 582 The army from Luoyang
Ye County. The secret office.
In the study, Jia Xu was checking the news sent back from all sides with his lamp. Wang Lei personally led the army to attack Gongsun Zan, which touched the thoughts of many princes. The princes in the world also made great efforts at this time and continued to develop their own strength.
The situation is turbulent and Jia Xu cannot be relaxed.
It is precisely this way that Jia Xu must be cautious. Suddenly, Jia Xu saw the urgent information sent back from Chang'an. After reading it, Jia Xu raised his eyebrows and showed a look of surprise in his calm eyes.
The message returned is surprising.
Jia Xu took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and ordered: "Come."
After the words came, a warrior in black walked in, bent down and bowed, bowed and said, "What are the instructions for sir?"
Jia Xu said in a deep voice: "Immediately ask Du Ji, Ju Su, Xun Chen, Xin Ping, and Huang Zhong to the government office. Even if the other party is already asleep, let them come immediately."
"promise."
The warrior in black got the order. Go and arrange it immediately.
...
Xun Chen stayed in Ye County and spent most of his time dealing with the affairs of the academy. Compared to Du Ji and Xun Chen, who were in charge of government affairs, the affairs of Xun Chen were much easier. When Jia Xu sent someone to send a message, Xun Chen was already asleep. He received the news of Jia Xu's invitation. He got up and put on his clothes. He hurried out of the residence and headed to the secret office.
When they arrived at the gate, Xun Chen met Du Ji and Ju Su who had just arrived. At that moment, Xun Chen asked, "Don't you, Bo Hou. Have you also received the invitation from Jia Xu?"
Du Ji and Ju Su nodded. Ju Su didn't know the specific matter yet. He asked, "When Youruo and Jia Xu sent someone to notify you, did you say what happened?"
"No."
Xun Chen shook his head with a puzzled expression.
Du Ji looked serious and continued, "Jia Xu sent someone to invite us overnight. Something must have happened. Let's go in first." The three of them went to the government office and came to the study room to sit down. Du Ji said straight to the point: "Mr. Wenhe called us overnight. Did you encounter anything?"
Jia Xu nodded and responded slowly, "I did encounter a big event. However, Xin Ping and Huang Zhong did not arrive. The three of you wait for a while. After Xin Ping and Huang Zhong arrived, I will explain it together, so as not to come. I have to repeat it."
Ju Su, Xun Chen and Du Ji nodded and sat quietly and waited.
After a while, Huang Zhong and Xin Ping came to the study.
Everyone arrived. Jia Xu no longer kept his cover and said, "I just got the information sent back from Chang'an. Li Ru had sent someone to Luoyang to inform Luoyang's garrison Zhang Liao and asked him to lead troops to attack Ye County. Our people sent the news back first. But soon, Zhang Liao will get the order and then lead troops to kill him."
After a quick swipe, everyone present changed their faces.
Li Ru's attack on Jizhou is definitely a big deal. More importantly, Wang Lei left Ye County with his army. At the critical moment of attacking Youzhou, he did not send troops to Li Ru's army for the time being.
Du Ji suppressed his impetuous mood and asked, "Mr. Wenhe. Is the news reliable?"
Jia Xu said seriously: "Absolutely correct."
The expressions of Xun Chen, Du Ji and others became extremely serious.
"Hahaha……"
A loud laugh suddenly came from the study. The person who was laughing was Huang Zhong. He stroked the long beard under his jaw, but had a happy smile on his face.
Huang Zhong's expression made everyone present feel puzzled.
Xin Ping asked: "General Han Sheng. Why did he laugh?"
Huang Zhong said confidently: "My lord left me in Ye County. I was one hundred reluctant. Now it seems that the lord must have expected someone to attack Ye County. So he left a hand early and let me stay in Ye County. The Feihu Camp and nearly 10,000 troops under my command were stationed in Ye County. What are you worried about? No matter what conspiracy Li Ru had, it would be impossible to take Ye County."
Jia Xu nodded slightly and said, "General Hansheng is so brave."
Huang Zhong said: "As a general, he is naturally going to fight for the lord to kill the enemy. If an enemy comes, he will be frightened. Then there is no need to go to the battlefield."
Ju Su thought for a while and said, "But this battle is probably not easy to fight."
Huang Zhong said: "Why did Mr. Ju say this?"
Ju Su replied: "Our advantage is that we are local operations. We were the first to get the news that Zhang Liao was about to send troops. However, our disadvantage is that our troops were insufficient. The troops left in Ye County were General Hansheng's Flying Tiger Camp cavalry and nearly 10,000 troops stationed. In addition, there was no other force. This little force was probably not enough. To fight, we had to dispatch troops from each county and county in Jizhou to return. Otherwise, it would be difficult to block the opponent's attack."
Xun Chen nodded and said, "Pongyu's analysis makes sense. But I think that as long as we play our greatest advantage, we can still win in one battle."
Xin Ping asked: "What are the advantages."
Xun Chen replied: "Zhang Liao doesn't know that we already know the advantages he is coming."
Xin Ping said again: "What if you have any solutions for your friend?"
Xun Chen shook his head and said, "The incident happened suddenly. There is no clear plan yet. However, as long as we take advantage of the other party's unaware that we have learned the news of their troops, we will definitely win."
Du Ji changed his mind and said, "Do you tell the lord about this?"
Huang Zhong waved his hand and said, "In my opinion, there is no need to notify the lord. It's just Zhang Liao. It's not worth mentioning. Why bother with the lord? According to the latest news, the lord has recaptured Zhongshan Kingdom and started entering Youzhou. Now is the best time to enter Youzhou. If you disturb the lord at this time, it will definitely affect the battle situation in Youzhou."
Jia Xu seemed very calm when he listened to the few people talking.
In fact, as the person who stayed in Ye County by Wang Lei, Jia Xu had great power in his hands. Furthermore, Jia Xu also had his own opinions on the incident where Li Ru sent troops to attack.
It can be said that Jia Xu is completely capable of being arbitrary. He makes decisions by himself, but when it comes to military and political affairs, he must discuss with everyone and listen to everyone's opinions.
On the one hand, it is brainstorming, and on the other hand, it is not authoritarian.
After seeing everyone discussing, Jia Xu stopped hesitating and coughed lightly, "Everyone's words have some truth. I agree with Youruo's point of view. As long as you make good use of the advantages, you can win in one battle. As for what Li Ru sent troops to attack, you should report to the lord and let the lord know. But you must explain to the lord that we can block Li Ru's army. The lord does not need to lead troops back."
After hearing this, Huang Zhong was happy and smiling. If Wang Lei mobilized his troops to return, many generals in the army would withdraw. At that time, there would definitely be no chance for Huang Zhong to show his abilities.
Ju Su asked, "Mr. Wenhe, what strategy do you have to destroy the enemy?"
Jia Xu raised his lips and said lightly: "Teel the enemy deeper, cut off the opponent's retreat, and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop."
Ju Su asked: "How to do it in detail."
Jia Xu said: "We are like this...this time, let Zhang Liao come and go."
Huang Zhong gave a thumbs up and praised: "Mr. Wenhe's suggestions are very good." Du Ji, Xin Ping, Xun Chen and Ju Su nodded repeatedly and unanimously agreed with Jia Xu's suggestions.
Jia Xu shook his sleeves and said, "Since you have no objection, this matter will be decided. General Hansheng, you and Yan Liang are in charge of the army and are responsible for sending troops. In this battle, you must let the princes of the world watch. Jizhou doesn't want to stretch his claws and touch it. Whose claws reach Jizhou have to be at risk of being chopped up."
"promise."
Huang Zhong nodded and his eyes were full of excitement.
...
Luoyang. Military Camp.
After Zhang Liao led his troops to Luoyang, he stationed outside the city.
Several months passed in a flash. Zhang Liao was also quite anxious because of the news sent from the front. Wang Lei had already led his troops into Youzhou. With the huge gap in strength between Wang Lei and Gongsun Zan, Gongsun Zan could not stop Wang Lei. If he did not send troops again, it would be too late to send troops after Wang Lei pacified Youzhou.
In the school grounds, Zhang Liao was inspecting the soldiers' training.
The soldiers were training enthusiastically. Zhang Liao couldn't help but feel excited.
The soldiers he trains are definitely a good warrior.
"Report."
A soldier ran to Zhang Liao quickly and reported: "General. A letter from Chang'an has been delivered."
"Okay. I'll go back right away."
Zhang Liao's heart moved and he couldn't help but think about sending troops. After returning to the camp, Zhang Liao quickly took out the letter he sent. He looked at it and read it quickly.
"Hahaha……"
At this moment, Zhang Liao couldn't help laughing loudly.
Zhang Liao put down the letter in his hand and calmed down. He ordered: "Tele to the officials above the lieutenant. Come to the tent immediately to discuss matters."
"promise."
The soldiers at the entrance of the camp received the order and immediately summoned the generals in the army.
Soon after, the lieutenant, general, etc. arrived at the camp.
Zhang Liao looked serious and his eyes swept over the people present. He said seriously: "We came from Chang'an and stationed in Luoyang. Do you know the purpose of our troops in Luoyang?"
Everyone shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know what it meant.
Zhang Liao said loudly: "The Taiwei asked us to station in Luoyang to enter Jizhou at any time. Now the Taiwei has ordered our army to kill Ye County."
"Is the general and the Grand Marshal going to attack Jizhou? If he goes to war with Wang Lei, a layer of stone may cause a thousand waves and trigger a series of reactions. This matter needs to be thought twice."
A captain frowned with a solemn expression.
"You can't understand the thoughts of the Grand Marshal." When Zhang Liao heard the lieutenant's words, it seemed as if the Western Liang army was afraid of Wang Lei. Zhang Liao snorted and said in a deep voice: "The Grand Marshal asked us to send troops because Gongsun Zan was attacked by Wang Lei. Now Wang Lei has entered Youzhou. We are going to Ye County. The purpose is to surround Wei and save Zhao. Let Gongsun Zan take a breath and organize troops to resist."
The captain then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "So that's it. I thought I was going to launch a war to wipe out Wang Lei. Since it was to relieve Gongsun Zan's pressure, it was reasonable to send troops. Gongsun Zan was in Youzhou for one day. There was a tiger hidden in Wang Lei's backyard. It would pose a threat to Wang Lei at any time."
Zhang Liao stood up and ordered, "Since you know your intention, go down and prepare. The troops will leave Luoyang early tomorrow morning and run towards Ye County."
"promise."
All the generals were ordered and they all held their fists and responded.
