363 Goat into the Tiger's Mouth
The next morning, Wuhuan Shanyu Tadun removed the thick armor he wore and the ship was unique to the Han people. With a good mood, Su Puyan and the other two left the camp together and went to Jicheng to meet Zhang Yan, the Regent, who was one person below and ten thousand people above.
In order to show respect for the man, Tadun also deliberately made Nanlou and Su Puyan and other entourages wear Hanfu, but the appearance of the appearance is a bit inappropriate.
Tadun, Nanlou, Su Puyan and others were all tough guys with powerful and rough appearance. At this time, they took off their original national short clothes and shirts, and after wearing the costumes of the Han Dynasty, they always lacked a kind of charm and harmony.
Tadun, Nanlou, Su Puyan and others were complacent. Although he felt uncomfortable walking in Hanfu, this was also an important etiquette. At the same time, Tadun was also using this move to express his feelings to Zhang Yan, which showed that he was actually looking to Han in his heart.
The distance of ten miles was not too far. Tadun, Nanlou, Su Puyan and others soon arrived at the foot of Jicheng City.
When they appeared under Jicheng City, the soldiers on the city tower couldn't help but feel a little funny when they saw the scene in front of them, because Tadun, Nanlou, Su Puyan and others were really inappropriate in wearing Hanfu.
But no matter what, the gate of Jicheng was still opened. Zhang He led a team of twenty people out of the city and directly welcomed Tadun, Nanlou, Su Puyan and others into the city.
Zhang He brought Tadun, Nanlou, Su Puyan and others to the hall of the government office. As soon as he entered the hall, he saw an extremely elegant middle-aged man standing in the hall. Tadun did not recognize this person, but in his opinion, this person was not the regent he wanted to meet, because he did not have the domineering spirit of a king, and he seemed to be a little older.
Tadun then said to Zhang He: "Who is this?"
Zhang He hurriedly introduced: "This is the military advisor general, the Sili Captain Jia Xu!"
After all, Tadun was from Wuhuan, and his concern was not here. He did not know who Jia Xu was, but he knew that the Sili School Captain was a very important official position. If he were not the confidant of the Regent, he would never have held this position.
So Tadun immediately walked forward, imitated the Han people, bowed to Jia Xu and said, "I am Wuhuan Shanyu Tadun. I have heard of Lord Jia Xu's great reputation for a long time. Now I see you, I am really lucky in my three lives."
Jia Xu smiled and said, "The Shanyu is too polite. The Regent said that he has no time to receive you, so he specially sent me to receive you. I would like to forgive him."
Tadun smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay!"
In fact, what Tadun thought was that everyone was the same when they received it. As long as they were rewarded, they would be the same if they could not see the regent.
"In view of the contributions made by Shanyu, the Regent had already made arrangements to put all the rewards to Shanyu together, with about five thousand gold. In addition, the Regent was also preparing to formally submit a request to the emperor to entrust Shanyu as the Great Shanyu of Wuhuan, and give him seal, talisman..."
Tadun was already overjoyed when he heard Jia Xu say this. As for what Jia Xu said later, he didn't hear clearly. Anyway, this is a benefit to him and a great benefit.
Afterwards, Tadun and Nanlou, Su Puyan followed Zhang He to get the bounty. Zhang He took Tadun and others to a cell. Tadun and Nanlou, Su Puyan and others were still excited and did not notice anything wrong at all. When they arrived at the dark cell, Zhang He told them to wait here for a while. Tadun and Nanlou, Su Puyan and others really believed it and stood in the cell and waited foolishly.
Zhang He felt a little funny. After leaving the cell, his soldiers immediately closed the door of the cell and locked it. He actually locked Tadun, Nanlou, and Su Puyan in the cell.
The sudden appearance immediately made Tadun and Nanlou. Su Puyan was very shocked. After looking at the environment around him carefully, he really wanted to curse. He didn't know what happened just now, but he followed Zhang He into the cell by a traitor, without paying attention to the surrounding environment at all.
Tadun pretended to be calm and asked with a smile on his face: "General Zhang, what do you mean? Didn't you agree to come and get gold? Why did you lock us in here?"
"Gold? Do you really think you can get it? How many Han people have you led your troops? The regent has not yet settled the bill with you. You shamelessly came to you to get rewards?" Zhang He said with a smile.
As soon as these words were said, Tadun suddenly felt an unknown premonition, and at the same time he felt that he was afraid that it would be a good fortune to come to Jicheng. He quickly shouted loudly: "This is what I agreed with the Regent. I want to see the Regent, and I want to see the Regent..."
"Why are you quarreling? The Regent said that he was in Pengcheng. This is the first time he came to Youzhou. Why did he make an appointment with you? If you want to see the Regent, you will die! Today next year, your taboo is yours. When noon is over, you will be pushed out and behead you. You can enjoy this last time!"
After saying that, Zhang He turned around and left the cell. Angry verbal verbals came from behind his ears. But Zhang He turned a deaf ear to him.
After leaving the prison cell, Zhang He went to report to Jia Xu. After hearing this, Jia Xu felt that the matter was completed too smoothly. It was just a strange thing, Tadun, Nanlou, Su Puyan and others had no brains, and they did not expect that this was a trap from the beginning.
"Military advisor, what should we do next?" Zhang He asked.
Jia Xu said: "The next thing is to attack the Wuhuan people, but this matter needs to be reported to the Regent, you are waiting for my news here."
"Here!"
After Jia Xu finished speaking, he went straight to Zhang Yan's room and asked Zhang Yan what to do next.
In fact, Zhang Yan handed over the power to deal with this matter to Jia Xu last night. Originally, Jia Xu shouldn't ask for instructions anymore and could make decisions directly. However, Jia Xu knew the truth that being with the king was like being with a tiger, and he also knew that some things should be done and some things should not be done. For example, overpowering power is something that he cannot do.
Next, they must have killed the leaders of the Wuhuan people such as Tadun, Nanlou, Su Puyan, and then mobilized a large army to launch unexpected attacks on the Wuhuan people. Tens of thousands of Wuhuan people would definitely be defeated when they were without a leader, thus achieving the goal of weakening the Wuhuan people.
However, it is precisely this measure that you must inform Zhang Yan in advance and then get Zhang Yan's instructions before you can take action. Otherwise, Jia Xu will leave Zhang Yan with a bad impression of chaos.
Jia Xu is already in his forties. It can be said that his life has gone halfway. His accumulated over the past 40 years of life and his knowledge in the officialdom have made him a cunning old fox. The more he is, the more he walks on thin ice. Therefore, since Jia Xu joined Zhang Yan, he has been acting cautiously, for fear of making any mistakes. If he takes a little wrong step, he will fall into the abyss.
Sometimes, Jia Xu himself feels that staying by Zhang Yan's side is a very tiring job, because you have to understand Zhang Yan's thoughts and know how to grasp it.
At this moment, Zhang Yan was still sleeping soundly in the room. He drank a little too much last night, so he was so drowsy. It was not until Jia Xu knocked on the door that he woke up from his sleep.
Zhang Yan opened the door and saw Jia Xu standing at the door, and asked, "Military advisor, is there anything wrong?"
Jia Xu said: "Regent, what you told me yesterday has been done now. Tadun, Nanlou, all the leaders of Su Puyan, the three Wuhuan people, were detained in prison. My subordinates came to ask the Regent for instructions on what to do next?"
Zhang Yan thought for a moment and said, "General Tadun, Nanlou, Su Puyan and the other two were executed, and sent a large army to besiege the Wuhuan people. It is necessary to eliminate and wipe out the Wuhuan's invading enemies and greatly weaken the Wuhuan people's threat to the Han Dynasty!"
Jia Xu told Zhang Yan the truth: "The Wuhuan people have 100,000 people, and they are all cavalry. Our army is not as powerful as the Wuhuan people, and most of them are infantry. In addition, our army is in a hurry this time, and we did not carry thunder bombs. If we want to wipe out the 100,000 people of Wuhuan, we are afraid it is difficult."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "You are a military advisor and have always been resourceful. This little thing will definitely not defeat you. This is my military talisman. If you take it, you can mobilize any troops. As for how to eliminate these 100,000 invading enemies, it depends on you!"
Jia Xu did not reach out to receive the military talisman. Without even looking at it, he said to Zhang Yan: "If you give advice, your subordinates will do their best. As for the matter of dispatching troops, please ask the Regent to come in person. I have a perfect plan, but the time it takes may take longer, but it can wipe out the 100,000 Wuhuan people without any effort. I just don't know if the Regent wants to hear it?"
"The military advisor has such a clever plan, and should tell it early, why bother to keep it there? Take this military talisman and I have never needed military talisman, because I am the military talisman myself, and I will be the order. I will give this military talisman to you for the time being. If you take it, you can do things directly and report to me later. I trust you very much!"
The last sentence made Jia Xu feel a little warm. It was not until this time that he reached out to receive the military talisman handed over by Zhang Yan.
Afterwards, Jia Xu told Zhang Yan what he thought of. After hearing this, Zhang Yan laughed and praised: "It turns out that only a military advisor can think of such a brilliant plan..."
After the laughter fell, Zhang Yan said to Jia Xu seriously: "Military advisor, just follow your plan. When you wipe out these 100,000 Wuhuan people, you will become famous in Youzhou. In the future, the burden of Youzhou will fall on you..."
After hearing Zhang Yan's words, Jia Xu thought for a while and soon realized the meaning of Zhang Yan's words. He thought to himself: "Is it possible that the Regent wants to hand over the entire Youzhou to me for governance?"
Just when Jia Xu was still confused for a moment, he heard Zhang Yan say, "Military advisor, it's not time to go too late. The sooner this matter is, the better."
Jia Xu said "very" and said, "Then I will say goodbye, I will start to handle this matter now." (To be continued.)
