Chapter 211 Zhang Chun's Rebellion, On the Eve of Sending Troops
"Okay, I promise to recognize you as my master!" After Zhou Kai was silent for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "As long as you do what you say, Mr. Zhu, then I, Zhou Kai, will only obey your orders from now on!"
After saying these words, Zhou Kai was like a deflated rubber ball, slumped on the chair. The confrontation with Zhu Han just now made him feel that he was wandering at the gate of hell, and Zhu Han's pair of
The eyes seemed to exist in the Nine Netherworlds of Hell, which made his heart beat faster and make him feel restless.
Moreover, Zhu Han's lie that "business cannot be done without benevolence and righteousness" can only be used to deceive those ignorant boys. But he, Zhou Kai, can hear another layer of meaning contained in it. Zhou Kai
It is certain that if he rejects Zhu Han, then he will never be able to leave Gaoliu City. Even with Zhao Wen's protection, he will not survive tonight and will not see the sun tomorrow.
What a domineering master like Zhu Han dislikes most is other people's refutations. Once you refute such a person, you will be greeted by his monstrous anger. When the emperor is angry, millions of people will be killed.
If Han is angry, he will probably shed a river of blood. After all, he is a powerful general.
"As the saying goes, those who understand current affairs are heroes. I can guarantee that, Brother Zhou, you will never regret your decision today!" Zhu Han smiled freely, patted Zhou Kai, and walked back to his seat.
He picked up a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Come, let's drink to today's happy event!"
"Congratulations, brother!" Zhao Wen picked up the wine bottle and stood up quickly. He first congratulated Zhu Han, then smiled at Zhou Kai and said, "Mr. Zhou, congratulations on closing this deal!"
"Same joy, same joy!" Zhou Kai was dumb at the moment and was eating Coptis chinensis. He knew the pain, but he didn't know whether Zhu Han was strong or not. He only knew that he was in trouble.
"Don't be discouraged. Since you are one of our own, I will give you a reassurance!" Seeing Zhou Kai showing bitterness, Zhu Han drank the wine and shouted towards the door: "Dian Wei, come in!"
"Lord, what are you calling me for?" The door was pushed open, and Dian Wei's majestic figure appeared in everyone's eyes.
Zhou Kai looked puzzled and thought to himself, does this mean that someone with such a tall body must fight hard? Besides, he is going to assassinate him. With such a majestic and unique body, does he want the other party to be more vigilant? Brother, we don’t do this, okay?
No?
"He is my guard commander, called Dian Wei. He is brave enough that no man can match him. Brother Zhou, when you return to Yanmen County, he will lead the team to escort you all the way! How about that?" Zhu Han pointed at Dian Wei,
introduced.
"Ah, the reputation of General Dian is as powerful as mine!" Zhou Kai had never heard of Dian Wei's name, so he still looked confused, but Zhao Wenke was different. Tan Shihuai led his troops
When he came to invade, he was ready to kill himself. Unexpectedly, Zhu Han succeeded in the battle, and Dian Wei's bravery spread throughout Dai County. When he heard Dian Wei's name, this boy
He was so excited that he stood up and prepared to toast Dian Wei to express his gratitude.
But Dianwei didn't drink alcohol while at work. Zhao Wen went there happily, but got a dusty nose.
"Master Zhao, is this General Dian really that powerful?" Zhou Kai asked with some uncertainty. It wasn't that he didn't believe Zhu Han's words, nor did he want to question Dian Wei's ability face to face. It was Zhao Wen's actions that made him
I feel very surprised. It stands to reason that you are also a big shot who has been a prefect. How can you lose your position in front of a warrior?
"Oh, Mr. Zhou, you don't know something! Isn't Deng Mao, who escorted you all the way to Gaoliu, good enough?" Faced with Zhou Kai's doubts, Zhao Wen didn't care and just said with a smile.
"Deng Mao is Qu Shuai's right-hand man, so his bravery is naturally remarkable!"
"But Deng Mao once said that in the hands of General Dian, he could not defeat him in three moves!"
"What? No way?"
"No? Hehe, I didn't believe it at first, but it's true." Zhao Wen was afraid that Zhou Kai still didn't believe it, so he immediately told Dian Wei's heroic deeds against the Xianbei people outside Yanmen Pass, and there were some in them.
It was an exaggeration, but Zhu Han did not point out the similar facts.
"Thank you for your concern, my lord, Zhou Kai deserves it!" Zhou Kai was surprised when he heard this, and then thanked Zhu Han.
"Haha, since we are our own people, how can I, the lord, put you in danger?" Zhu Han chuckled and ordered to Dian Wei: "Dian Wei, tomorrow morning, you will bring thirty
My personal guards will escort Zhou Kai to Yanmen County Yin Pavilion and ensure his safety along the way. You will return after he takes charge of the Zhou family."
"Remember, you only need to ensure his safety, you don't have to interfere in other matters!"
"The general will obey your orders!"
Dian Wei glanced at Zhou Kai and then took the order.
"Okay, now that everything has been discussed, Zhou Kai, you should finish what you need to do and hand it over to Dian Wei. He will send someone to me. You will set off back to the underworld early tomorrow morning. As for other things, you don't have to do anything else.
Don't worry, I will pave the way for you!" Zhu Han looked at Zhao Wen and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, I will take my leave then!"
Just a few days after Zhou Kai left, Xi Zhicai rushed back to Gaoliu. At the same time, he brought Zhu Han the court appointment documents for Daijun Taishou and Wuyuan Xiaowei. They held both civil and military positions in the same place. Since the state pastoral system was abolished
It never happened again, and now this system appears again in another form. In any case, it is a royal charter and a supreme honor.
Just after Zhu Han took over the post of governor of Daijun from Zhao Wen, a major event happened in Youzhou and Jizhou.
Ji Chou, the captain of the school guarding Wuyuan, was dissatisfied that Zhu Han had jumped over the rank to report military exploits and usurped his position. Therefore, he resented Zhu Han and even more the injustice of the court. In addition, Zhang Chun, the Prime Minister of Zhongshan, was bewitching Ji Chou, so Ji Chou agreed to marry Zhang Chun and take over Yuyang County.
Zhang Ju, a wealthy family, united with Qiu Liju, the king of the Wuyuan tribe in western Liaoning County, to rebel and wanted to go to Xiliang. Han Sui and Ma Teng's actions were regarded as asking for an explanation from the court.
At the end of the sixth year of Guanghe's reign, Zhang Ju led his army to plunder Jixian County, killing Zhu Gui, the governor of Youzhou, Liu Zheng, the governor of Youbeiping, Yang Zhong, the governor of Liaodong, and others. He gathered more than 100,000 people, stationed troops and plundered Youzhou and Jizhou.
Zhang Chun claimed to be General Mi Tian and King of An Ding, and his reputation was unparalleled.
What Zhu Han didn't know was that because of the arrival of his little butterfly, this large-scale rebellion broke out several years earlier, several months earlier than the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and the man who lived in Julu County
Zhang Jiao also postponed the time of the uprising because of this. This way he could see the combat strength of the army and the army, and secondly, he could prepare them more fully for the uprising.
The death of Zhu Gui, the governor of Youzhou, caused a shock in Youzhou and made Emperor Liu Hong furious. That month he sent General Meng Yi to lead the five schools of the Northern Army to Youzhou to suppress Zhang Chun's rebellion. At the same time, Guo Xun was appointed as a new officer.
As the governor of Youzhou, he succeeded Zhu Gui and took over all affairs in Youzhou.
On this day, when Zhu Han was still worrying about how to conquer other counties in Daijun, he received an order from Zhonglang General Meng Yi. The general content of the letter was to ask him to send troops to attack the rebellious former Wuyuan Colonel Ji.
Chou, because Ji Chou's base camp happened to be in Macheng, and he was going to lead the army to Liaoxi County to fight Zhang Chun.
Originally, Zhu Han had planned that as long as Ji Chou didn't come to trouble him, he would have some free time. After all, this old boy was in rebellion now and had four soldiers and horses under him, a total of two thousand people. He was the only one.
The small arms and legs are not enough for people to knead.
But Meng Yi's orders had come, and he couldn't continue to pretend to be stupid. In desperation, he had to summon his subordinates for discussion.
"My lord, that Ji Chou is not easy to deal with! He has been rebelling for months, and he has yet to expand externally. It can be seen that this old boy is reorganizing his internal troops." Now Zhu Hanrong has been promoted to the county governor, and he is a close confidant of Zhu Han.
, Zhang Liao's status has naturally increased. Now he is a military prince in charge of Yiqu's troops, and he is firmly in the position of the number one military attache under Zhu Han.
"What Wen Yuan said is true. There are four followers under Ji Chou's command, and the number reaches two thousand. It is difficult for us to defeat them, but..." Following Zhang Liao, Xi Zhicai also continued his analysis, but he proposed
He understood the reason why Zhu Han had to send troops, "But we have to fight. First, the lord is the new governor of Daijun, and he is responsible for maintaining public security in the territory; second, Ji Chou has openly rebelled, and is a member of the imperial court.
Thirdly, Macheng is under the rule of Daijun, how could it fall into the hands of the rebels? Fourthly, when a rebellion occurs, the people in the territory are panicked. Our army should quickly put down the chaos and stabilize people's hearts. Fifthly, the military order has been
There is no way to avoid it. Sixthly, Ji Chou and the lord have long had a grudge. This time can also resolve the old and new grudges between us. In terms of love and reason, in public and private matters, lord, you should send troops to conquer Ji Chou, Macheng.
thick."
"Exactly, what the general said in praise of his talents!" Guan Hai was dull and didn't know how to speak, but in his opinion, anyone who could threaten Zhu Han should be regarded as an enemy and should be punished. Besides, Ji is now
Chou jumped out on his own initiative, and they also saved the excuse.
"The general agrees!" "The general agrees!" "Yes, it's time to teach him a lesson!"
After Guan Hai, three generals Wang Liang, Xu Qiang and Chang Peng also expressed their agreement.
They were old people who had followed Zhu Han all the way from Jingxian County. They were naturally aware of the grievances between Zhu Han and Ji Chou. Now that there was such a good reason, how could they let it go so easily.
"Master Taishou, this military matter can affect the whole body. You have to think carefully!" Since Zhu Han took over Gaoliu, Zhao Wen retreated to the second line and became Zhu Han's staff.
Originally, Cheng Yuanzhi planned to transfer Zhao Wen away, but Zhu Han didn't agree, so he kept this guy. After all, this guy was a good hand at running the place. Zhao Wen heard that almost everyone agreed.
After Zhu Han sent out troops, he was shocked and quickly went out to persuade him: "The opponent has a large number of people and our army is unbeatable. In addition, thousands of people are fighting, and it is difficult to supply food, grass and ordnance. We can only maintain one day."
If this battle is dragged into a protracted battle by the other side, it will be difficult for our soldiers to supply even their swords."
"Old Mo, what do you think?"
Zhao Wen's words are very true and have only one meaning, that is, in this battle, Zhu Han cannot fight for a long time, but he can still fight once. Compared with Zhao Wen, Zhu Han is more inclined to play Zhicai.
After all, the two of them have been cooperating for a long time, and Xi Zhicai's intention is exactly what Zhu Han wants. He, Zhu Han, is currently riding a tiger and is in a difficult position. Even if he doesn't want to fight this battle, he has to grit his teeth and fight on.
"Oh? Mr. Zhu, haven't you always been very democratic?" In front of so many people, Mo Chen also used the honorific title for Zhu Han. After all, this was related to Zhu Han's dignity and dignity. Who was more important to him?
The distinction is still clear, "Since so many people agree to send troops, do you still want to stand still?"
"Even if Mr. Zhu wants to stand still, I'm afraid the other party won't give you this chance, right?" Mo Chen thought about it for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Ji Chou is very capable. A month or so will be enough for him to straighten out everything internally.
If what I predict is true, before spring begins, even if you don’t go and beat him, he will still come and beat you.”
