Chapter 595: Driving the tiger and swallowing the wolf

Wang Jun led Zaosong to the study.
There was a jade bed in the room, which was similar in length to a sleeping bed. Wang Jun sat down and felt tired, so he lay down on it and said, "Taiwan, I heard that you got a tortoiseshell bed, what do you think?"
Zaosong was not afraid and just smiled and said: "It's not like this jade bed."
Wang Jun laughed happily and said: "Be more restrained from now on and don't accept anyone else's things."
Zaosong responded repeatedly.
This woman is not a kind person.
For more than ten years, the world has been in chaos, and many knowledgeable people believe that Jin Zuo will end and a new master will emerge.
Against this background, Wang Jun, who was once a powerful figure in Hebei Province, also started to think about it.
There is a prophecy in the Han Dynasty: "Those who succeed the Han Dynasty should be Tu Gaoye."
To be honest, this prophecy is ambiguous and vague. No matter how you interpret it, it seems to make sense, but it also seems to be nonsense.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, a witch explained it to Li Jue.
"Tu" is the same as "road", and "lugao" means a high place on the road, that is, "que". And "啕" is also the same as "que", so this prophecy should be on you - it's really a forced explanation
.
Li Jue knew that his strength and reputation were far behind, so he ignored it.
However, some people were more outrageous than Li Jue. After hearing this, Quexuan, a local tycoon in Xuzhou, was overjoyed and raised an army. He gathered thousands of people and claimed to be the emperor. He was later annihilated by Tao Qian.
Yuan Shu found out about Que Xuan's prophecy that Wei Wei would raise an army. He thought about it, if "Tu" leads to "road", then "my word highway is in line with his prophecy"!
When we arrived at Cao Pi's meeting, Xu Zhi explained it again.
The gate in front of the palace is sometimes called "Xiang Wei". This prophecy should be based on Wei replacing Han.
By the time Sima Zhao met, he invented a new solution.
Sometimes an alchemist suggested that "Tu Gao" refers to the tallest person on the road, which must be a man riding a horse. "Sima" is Tu Gao. Cao Wei was a puppet dynasty, and Sima was the Han Dynasty!
Wang Jun's father, Wang Chen, was named "Chu Dao", which corresponded to the word "Dang Tu", so Wang Jun came up with the idea and summoned his close aides and disciples to discuss it.
To be honest, his explanation was too outrageous. It was simply because he had a disobedient heart and forced himself to follow it.
Liu Liang, the former governor of Bohai, Wang Tuan, governor of Beihai, and Gao Rou, the shogunate who lived in Youzhou, all tried to persuade him. Wang Jun was furious and killed him.
When I asked Huo Yuan, a famous scholar from Yan State, about his prediction, he refused to answer. Wang Jun became angry again and killed him and hung his head in public.
Han Xian, a lieutenant in charge, said that Murong Xin had done a good job in resettling the refugees and treating the scholars courteously, and his reputation was growing, so he tried to persuade him. Wang Jun was angry and killed him again.
So, why do you think the atmosphere of the Youzhou shogunate has become like this?
All the loyal and upright people are dead. Who dares to tell the truth? Can't you follow Wang Jun? He wants to hear whatever he likes, just fool him to avoid misfortune.
After Jizhou was occupied by the Xiongnu, some scholars were unwilling to serve as Husbands and were not very happy to go to Henan, so many people came to Youzhou with their families. Seeing Wang Jun's behavior, they simply defected to Pingzhou Governor Cui Ao or even Murong Xianbei.
.
Everyone above and below is trying to fool Wang Jun. People's hearts are no longer popular, and his subordinates are rebellious. He will fall down with just one kick, just like Yuan Shu back then.
Lu Zhi dared to assure Shao Xun that there was a reason why he would let you enter Youzhou sooner or later.
Zaosong knew the woman's nature well, and he would always say nice things to make the woman happy and entrust her with important responsibilities.
Zaosong was too lazy to do anything, it was pointless, so he devoted himself to making money and living day by day.
Therefore, there is a folk song in Youzhou: "Ten bags and five bags, all will go to Zao Lang." Zao Song didn't take it seriously, but he didn't expect that the woman had heard about it, and she suddenly became worried. Who is "slandering" me behind my back?
Fortunately, the old man seemed to have no intention of pursuing the matter.
"Taiwan, I'm ready to distribute the grain and fodder." Wang Jun changed into a comfortable position and said, "But how should we fight this battle? Do you have a strategy?"
Zaosong made a quick calculation in his mind.
The woman's knowledge of the outside world is limited to Shao Xun's rapid rise, his defeat of Shi Le, and his great reputation in Henan and Hebei. The rest is probably not much known.
I wonder if anyone told Liu Yao about coming to Changshan?
Does he know about Shao Xun's ambition?
In the eyes of the married woman, is Shao Xun just like Sima Ying and Sima Yue, who were rising and falling?
Thinking of this, Zao Song even had a mischievous idea: If he said that Shao Xun admired the grace of the Taiyuan Wang family and was willing to respect women as the main ones because of his low background, I wonder if he would believe it?
After suppressing this ridiculous thought, Zaosong replied in a deep voice: "Have you heard about Duan Bu Xianbei?"
Wang Jun's face dropped and he said: "It's made in Taiwan, why bother hesitating? Just say it."
Zaosong's heart trembled and he said: "Duanbu's Xianbei troops have gone south to Zhangwu."
Wang Jun hesitated for a while, then sat up and said, "Why are they going south? Are they competing with me for Jizhou?"
When Zaosong heard this, he secretly thought that the old man was really going to fight for Jizhou, so he decided not to force himself on him. He followed his words and said: "Duan Bu has no ambitions, so he should not be able to capture Jizhou. He will just rob him to death."
.”
Wang Jun's face softened a little, and he smiled and said, "I don't think they have the ability."
Zaosong observed what Wang Jun said and said, "There are even more women and men in Beizhou, so they don't dare to make mistakes."
Wang Jun laughed and scolded: "Don't say such nonsense."
He was scolded and scolded, but it was obvious that he was still very useful. As he gets older, he tends to become confused and he likes to hear nice words.
"But -" After making Wang Jun happy, Zaosong changed the topic and said: "I heard that Duan Xianbei might have been seduced by the Xiongnu, so he went south to Zhangwu. Shao Xun's soldiers were also in Zhangwu and Ling
If Hu Ni fights, he may run into Duan Bu."
"Oh?" Wang Jun heard this news for the first time and said in surprise: "Shao Xun went north to Zhangwu? Isn't he still in Hejian?"
Zaosong secretly scolded the generals of the shogunate for not reporting such important news? However, the eldest brother did not talk about the second brother, and he also concealed a lot of things from each other.
"Only one of the pioneers went to Zhangwu." Zao Song said: "There is a general named 'Jin Zheng' under Shao Xun's account, but he has already reached Gaoyang."
Wang Jun suddenly lost his composure and said, "How come the troops are advancing so fast?"
This was hard for Zao Song to accept.
If you say that Shao Bing has strong fighting ability, it may make Wang Jun unhappy. After all, Han Xian's story comes first, and he really doesn't dare to talk nonsense.
You said that Shi Le suffered heavy losses and could not be fought. This may also make Wang Jun unhappy. After all, Youzhou soldiers suffered losses at the hands of Shi Le. Without Shao Xun's Northern Expedition to Yecheng, Youzhou might not have been saved.
In short, facing the moody Wang Jun, Zaosong must speak carefully, even if he is Wang Jun's son-in-law.
"I heard that Shi Le was careless and carried out a sneak attack for Shao Xun, and he lost tens of thousands of people, leading to this." Zao Song said: "Now Shao's troops have advanced to Zhangwu, Gaoyang——"
"Haha!" Wang Jun suddenly smiled while stroking his hands.
Zaosong was puzzled.
Wang Jun glanced at him and said: "Taiwan's Shile has one hundred thousand cavalry, which is twice as many as Youzhou. I was a little worried at first, but now that they are defeated, isn't it a God-given opportunity?"
Zaosong's secret plan was terrible, but the woman still wanted to capture Jizhou. He couldn't understand why he was so obsessed with Jizhou? And since he was so obsessed with it, he shouldn't have given up or left after capturing Ye City.
Of course, the prestige of the court was still very high at that time, Sima Yue was also there, and he had many soldiers and generals. It was right to withdraw his troops at that time, otherwise he might be reprimanded by the court, or even be besieged from all sides.
Now we can attack Jizhou openly, but our own strength does not allow it.
Looking at the woman like this, she is obviously out of her wits. Why should we attack Jizhou? Once the good opportunity has been lost, we should accept our fate and find ways to maintain the situation to avoid suffering a greater defeat.
If Zaosong still had some extravagant hopes in his heart before, thinking that after Shi Le's defeat, the woman could take the opportunity to gain control of Jizhou counties and increase her strength, he completely gave up this idea after returning from Yecheng.
Not to mention, the scholars and officials in the counties of Jizhou did not recognize Wang Youzhou. Several groups of people were sent to appease him, but did anyone come over? None.
No one is a fool, everyone knows that the women are getting more and more stupid and rebellious. Even if they vote for the Huns, they will not vote for you, because no one likes to be on the side that is destined to lose.
Zaosong really couldn't understand why the woman thought that Shi Le could benefit from him after hearing about Shi Le's defeat.
Who gave him this confidence?
Thinking of this, Zaosong sighed secretly. Maybe he is also responsible, everyone in the shogunate is responsible. Everyone is cheating from top to bottom, and they are all singing their praises. Women don't like to go out much now, and they stay in the city all day long, giving
It was only his own group of people who provided the information - it seemed that he had been fooled!
"What the old lady said is true." Zao Song followed Wang Jun's words and said.
But he didn't want to smash the bowl he was eating from. He wanted to continue to make money, so he said: "However, Shi Le and Shao Xun have repeatedly fought and killed each other, leaving corpses everywhere. It is also good for Youzhou. You might as well stock up on food and grass."
Prepare the military resources, train the soldiers, and wait and see what happens. Once Shi and Shao both lose, the opportunity to go south will be ripe."
"Well, that makes sense." Wang Jun slapped his thigh and said with a smile: "It's still a veteran from Taiwan who can come up with such a plan. Then we must first gather military resources and soldiers to lure the bullies. Let's do this. I'll take a trip.
Daijun, I asked Tuoba Xianbei to come to meet you."
Zaosong's mouth felt bitter.
In his opinion, this matter cannot be accomplished by running to Dai County.
Daijun was given to Xianbei by Liu Kunkang and Wang Junzhi. It was considered a relatively good territory in Tuoba Xianbei. However, the nobles did not live in Daijun and might have to go to Shengle.
Even if he brought more horses and traveled day and night, he would be able to arrive in less than half a month, but it would be too hard. He didn't want to do this drudgery and delay him from making money.
But Wang Jun said so, and Zaosong didn't dare to contradict him. He was afraid that the woman would be unhappy and beat him or even kill him, so he agreed.
"Shao Xun is also an arrogant person." Wang Jun added: "I read the letter you brought back from Yecheng last time, and actually ordered me to fight here and there for his own profit. It's simply ridiculous. Anyway, first of all
Let him be satisfied and ride south one day to hold him accountable. I would like to see if he is ashamed or not."
Having said this, Wang Jun laughed happily.
Zao Song also laughed awkwardly.
Just when the Weng and his son-in-law had come to an agreement, thousands of horsemen rode southward from the pastures south of Jixian County and soon crossed the Juma River. Jizhou was already in sight.
The leader was surprisingly Duan Mobo, one of the Xianbei leaders of the Duan tribe.
