Zhou Zhongheng glanced at Kuai Yue, his eyes a little cold.
Kuai Yue bowed and smiled slightly, with a hint of pride.
Although Zhou Zhong was appointed as the governor of Yuzhou, he never really performed his duties and had always lived in Jiujiang. Shi Sun Rui made contributions in the battle of Huayin, but he was unable to be promoted. Later, he led the infantry battalion of the Northern Army.
The Shooting Camp stationed in Taiyuan without any consequences for the subsequent battles.
This inevitably makes people feel that the emperor is neglected by the old ministers, and Zhou Zhong is somewhat wishful thinking about advocating for the court.
"Who said that Shi Sun Junrong was exiled to Taiyuan?" Zhou Zhong sneered.
"Shi Sun Junrong was originally a Weiwei, but now he is a Marquis of the Northern Army. Isn't it considered a left-handed move?"
"Do you know how many people there were under your command when the emperor fought north?"
Kuai Yue shook his head. How could he know these details?
Zhou Zhong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Since you don’t know, it’s easy to deal with. Shi Sun Rui’s affairs were also a thorn in his heart, but he felt even more unhappy when Kuai Yue said it.
"When the emperor fought north, his troops were all under his command, except for the generals of Xiliang, and the northern and southern troops. The southern troops were limited in strength, with only a thousand people in the tiger and the Yulin. Later, the elite cavalry of the Northern Army were added, with a total of three thousand people."
Zhou Zhong raised three fingers and looked around with awesome eyes. "The emperor took these three thousand people as the main force, first defeated the Xiongnu rebels in the northern border, then defeated the Xianbei and supported the 200,000 Luohan, and beheaded 30,000."
Kuai Yue's expression changed slightly, and he looked a little ugly.
Liu Biao also frowned and remained silent.
They all knew that the emperor had not had many troops during the Northern Expedition, but they never believed that the emperor had only three thousand infantry and cavalry. Now it was said by Zhou Zhong, but they couldn't help but disbelieve it.
The emperor defeated the Xiongnu rebels with three thousand infantry and cavalry first, then defeated the Xianbei and helped Luohan, beheading more than 30,000. Such a record is really scary. If Zi defeated the Xianbei in the West again today, his main force would have been more than 30,000. Once he went out of the east, he would have been more than 30,000.
, Who can resist?
"The emperor fought north, and Hedong was handed over to Xun Wenruo, and the generals of Xiliang were responsible for the safety, and Taiyuan was handed over to Shisun Junrong. Shisun Junrong was the main force of the Northern Army. He not only had the important task of guarding Taiyuan, but also had to support Hedong at any time.
.How can an exiled person take on such an important task?"
"With that being said, the marquis of the Northern Army with 600 stones is not the marquis of the two thousand stones after all." Kuai Yue insisted.
"Idiot!" Zhou Zhong couldn't help but shout: "If the reputation is not right, the words will not be right. The commander of the Northern Army is naturally more suitable for the Marquis of the Northern Army. Wei Wei is a minister in the palace and needs to follow the commander of the commander.
When the emperor is expeditioning north, how can the Weiwei stay in Taiyuan and command the main force of the Northern Army?"
Kuai Yue's eyebrows were raised lightly and he was about to argue again, but was stopped by Liu Biao.
"Brother Jiamou, after hearing what you said, the doubts in our hearts have finally been resolved." Liu Biao raised his glass and toasted Zhou Zhong. "Come on, let's drink a glass together, I wish Handa a long time and new."
Zhou Zhong laughed. "Heroes are young. The emperor is not yet weak in his year, but he has the emperor and is brave and virtuous. The revival of the Han Dynasty is expected. Jing Sheng became a royal family and should be an example of the ministers and return to the lost path."
Liu Biao's cheeks twitched twice, raised his wine glass and covered his face with his sleeve.
After receiving the wind for Zhou Zhong, he arranged Zhou Zhong to live in the post house and ordered someone to serve him well. After Liu Biao returned to the inner house in Xiangyang City, sat alone in the hall, and did not speak for a long time.
The eldest son Liu Qi walked in and stepped forward to salute.
"Are you arranged?" Liu Biao put away his mind and asked.
"After the arrangement is completed, Kuai Qi will be responsible for it personally, and the idle people will not be approached." Liu Qi was a little uneasy. "Aweng, Duke Zhou is a minister of the court. What does it seem wrong to treat it? What if he goes to the emperor and says Aweng to the emperor.
No, in the future…”
Liu Biaoyang raised his hand and looked anxious. "Okay, I understand." After a pause, he said again: "Don't I know that Zhou Jiamou is a minister, but I have no other choice. Yuan Benchu is about to go south, and this time, he will definitely not.
As hasty as last time, I am most likely to take Liu Xuande first and then Cao Mengde. Once he defeats Cao Mengde and invites me to attack Nanyang, what should I do?"
Liu Qi looked at Liu Biao in surprise. "Aweng, Zhang Ji is the general of the cavalry of the imperial court. If you attack him... wouldn't it be a treason?"
"What kind of rebellion?" Liu Biao shouted angrily: "The generals of Xiliang are cruel by nature and kill innocent people. Zhang Ji was originally under Dong Zhuo's command and was incompatible with Li Jue and others. Now, although Dong Zhuo and Li Jue die, he
Still a native of Xiliang, what's the difference?"
Liu Qi opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. He knew that Liu Biao was hesitating, but he never expected that Liu Biao would still want to join forces with Yuan Shao to attack Zhang Ji.
Liu Biao sighed. "The emperor wants to use the force of Liangzhou people to revive the great man, which is like drinking poison to quench his thirst. I received the news that the general who led the troops east was Han Sui. I have seen him. It was an ambitious person.
The people of Liangzhou are no less than Dong Zhuo. Once he makes great contributions, the government will be controlled by him. At that time, the emperor will definitely become a puppet, and the entire Guandong will become a ranch for the people of Xiliang. There is no rejuvenation at all."
Liu Qi remained silent.
Liu Biao thought for a while and said, "Do you know why Shi Sun Junrong was dismissed from the Weiwei, and the Marquis of the Army in the north guard Taiyuan?"
"Don't Zhou Gong say..."
"That's just a lie." Liu Biao waved his hand and looked at him disdainfully. "Shi Sun Junrong was dismissed from Wei Wei because he disobeyed the will and accepted Wei Gu. Fan Xian's request to surrender, causing Wei and Fan to escape.
The end of the clan punishment.”
Liu Qi was shocked. "The emperor wanted to kill the Wei clan in Hedong, Fan clan?"
"It's not only the Wei family, Fan family, but also other Hedong clans." Liu Biao patted his knees. "The emperor was in Guanzhong and the intention of rectifying the powerful was very clear. Do you think Kuai Yue, Cai Mao and others are willing to support the court? Do you believe it or not?
I will be driven out of Jingzhou tomorrow if I surrender to the court today?”
Liu Qi closed his mouth and said nothing more.
He understood Liu Biao's concerns.
The emperor wants to save the land, which is a struggle with the great tribes in the world. Liangzhou doesn’t matter, and Guanzhong has nothing to do after the war, but Shandong cannot do it, and Jingzhou with rich household registration is not enough. Kuai Yue and Cai Mao’s concerns are also Liu Biao’s concerns, after all, Liu in Shanyang
The clan is also a high-ranking family with a large amount of land. Whoever wants to take away their land is their enemy.
In this way, the emperor's journey of Zhongxing was not as smooth as expected.
Liu Qi thought about it carefully, and then asked carefully: "Aweng, Han Suidong comes out, can Yuan Benchu be the opponent?"
Liu Biao was silent for a moment and smiled slightly. "That depends on whether Xun Wenruo agreed or not."
"What if Xun Wen agreed?"
"I don't think he will agree." Liu Biao's eyes narrowed, he pondered for a moment, and then said, "Even if he personally wants to agree, the Ruying clan behind him will not agree. If he wants to be an enemy of the Ruying clan, he will be in the world.
A noble family is an enemy, and what awaits him will be ruined."
"Will Xun Wenruo... be ruined?" Liu Qi frowned.
Liu Biao glanced at Liu Qi with a sideways glance, and a narrow smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Zhu Zi, what do you know? It's too easy for three people to become tigers to ruin a person's reputation. Even if he is really a saint, as long as he offends the world's aristocratic family,
It will also leave him without a foothold.”
He laughed and said, "What's more, the Xun family in Yingchuan has never been a saint."
