Chapter 435: Sowing discord
Gai Jun personally came out of the tent to greet Zhang Liao. Not only was Zhang Liao surprised, but Gai Heng was also surprised. Gai Jun was not prepared for Zhang Liao at all, and he couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart. Although Zhang Liao was most likely to be a true surrender, after all, both parties had
He is a life-and-death enemy. Who dares to pat his chest and guarantee that the other party is not pretending to surrender, but is actually assassinating him?
Gai Jun pulled Zhang Liao toward the tent. Gai Heng blocked the road intentionally or unintentionally. Gai Jun was slightly startled when he saw him like this. He understood in his heart and secretly made Zhang Liao move away. The general had an order and could not refuse. However, for the sake of
For the sake of Gai Jun's safety, Gai Heng stepped aside to get out of the way. At the same time, he stretched out his left arm and stopped in front of Zhang Liao. He said with a solemn face: "The Chinese army's tent is where the general lives. The most important thing for an army is this. Please excuse me."
Zhang Zhonglang took off the sword from his waist." There was no arrogance in his words, but he was quite sincere.
Before Zhang Liao could react, Gai Jun said displeasedly: "Bo Zheng, you are still not stepping down. If the word spreads, people will not say that Gu is lonely and does not value talents. What's more, Gu and Wenyuan have known each other for several years and are old friends. Gu and Wenyuan have known each other for several years and are old friends.
If you are more confident than Wenyuan, why do you need to act like this?"
"The general's words are wrong." Zhang Liao said sternly to Gai Jun: "I think what Gai Sima said is very reasonable. The general shoulders the important responsibilities of the country and puts safety first. If I were in his position, it would be the same." After that, he explained.
He lowered his saber and handed it to Gai Heng.
"It's just a trivial matter, and I'm in a bad mood." Gai Jun snorted heavily, but he blamed both of them.
Zhang Liao had a wry smile on his face, and a warm current rose up in his heart, lingering in his chest and belly. He thought that his hard work was not in vain, and he ran north. The hussar general is also the real Ming Lord. When he followed Gai Jun into the tent, he saw a handsome and outstanding boy.
Standing inside and looking at him with a smile, Gai Jun introduced him: "Wen Yuan, this is the eldest son Gai Yi."
Zhang Liao had heard of the famous "Prodigy" in Heshuo, and hurriedly greeted Gai Yi and called him Young Master. The latter responded appropriately and had a fatherly manner. He knew that Gai Junyu could talk freely with Zhang Liao and it would be inconvenient for him to stay here for a long time, so he resigned.
And go.
Zhang Liao looked at Gai Yi's back and replied to Gai Jun, "May I ask, general, how old is your young master?"
Seeing Zhang Liao mention his son, Gai Jun felt very proud and replied: "He will be ten years old this year."
Zhang Liao admired him and said: "A ten-year-old boy doesn't know anything yet, but the young master has already followed the general in the army. He is really a genius."
"Before the army was launched, the entanglement was so tight that Gu could not refuse, so he had to take it with him." Gai Jun explained briefly, then waved his hand and said: "Let's not mention him. Gu Linba Shui heard that Wen Yuan had left Beijing with Lu Fengxian and went south.
, I thought it would be difficult to meet each other, and I didn’t want Wenyuan to come and join me. I am so relieved to be alone, so relieved to be lonely... It is better to have Zhang Wenyuan than to have thousands of troops, haha..."
"A lowly general from the Liao Dynasty is so valued by the general. What more can he say? He only works to the death. At the beginning of every battle, he will charge into battle to help the general wipe out the national traitors and revive the country." Zhang Liao said with clasped fists. He then talked about his various experiences.
Invited by Lu Bu, he assassinated Dong Zhuo, and then Han Sui led his army to the west, defeated Chang'an, and went south to Yuan Shu. During this period, Lu Bu was unwilling to surrender to Gai Jun, and he did not hide and avoid the dirty things between him and Lu Bu.
, talked about them all one by one. Zhang Liao finally bluntly stated that Yuan Shu's weapons were far inferior to those of the Hussars General, so he took advantage of guarding Aoguan to break away from Lu Bu and look for an opportunity to return north.
Gai Jun listened attentively and invited Zhang Liao to take a seat during the conversation. After hearing the whole story, he shook his head and sighed: "Wen Yuan may have heard from Lu Fengxian that Gu and his nephew Gai Bosi had an encounter with him in Wuyuan when they were young.
Due to fate, the two sides fought for Diaoer. Although they were young and energetic, they broke up unhappy, but how could this not become a good story? When they met as adults, there was nothing else in their hearts except joy. Later, the two sides fought on the battlefield.
It's just that everyone is his own master, each performs his own duties, and does not change his original intention. I love Lu Bu very much for his bravery, but I didn't expect that his temperament would be so narrow-minded. I am really disappointed."
"..." Zhang Liao deeply agreed with Gai Jun's evaluation of Lu Bu. However, given his status as Lu Bu's subordinate, he couldn't say too much in depth, lest he leave a bad impression on the hussar general, otherwise he would definitely
You need to talk about this guy's bad character. He has seen through Lu Bu. It's only because he was blind before that he admires him endlessly.
Gai Jun said thoughtfully: "So, Aoguan fell into the hands of Li Zhiran?"
Liao nodded.
"Li Zhiran..." Gai Jun subconsciously rubbed his thumb bone, muttering in his heart the name that made him gnash his teeth. He had heard from Dong Jun's generals that when Dong Zhuofang died, the generals in Hedong were frightened and proposed to return to Hedong.
There were many followers of Shuo, but Li Jue firmly opposed it and advocated leading troops to counterattack Chang'an, and successfully persuaded the vacillating coach Niu Fu.
Gai Jun knew very well in his heart that even if Li Jue agreed with Beifu, Niu Fu might not dare to agree to this proposal, but it was not without any chance. Li Jue would completely cut off this road. Gai Jun was so angry that his teeth were itching, Hu
Feng Ye felt that his face was shameless. He always looked a little unnatural in front of him these days. You must know that he had repeatedly proposed to surrender the Dong army generals at the Heshuo meeting for the sake of his uncle Li Jue. Li Jue's move
, undoubtedly slapped my nephew hard in the face.
Gai Jun came back to his senses, looked at Zhang Liao, and asked: "Wenyuan, do you have any news from Wuguan?"
Zhang Liao frowned and replied: "Li Zhiran was unable to attack Aoguan directly, so he sent troops to cross the Tomb Ling Mountain and appeared behind Aoguan four days ago. News from the south was cut off."
Gai Jun asked again: "Wen Yuan, in your opinion, can Li Meng defend Wuguan?"
Zhang Liao shook his head and said: "Li Meng blocked Yuan's road from entering Beijing, so there was no problem. However, Lu Fengxian attacked from behind... Four days ago, there was news that Wuguan was in danger, and it should be broken in the near future. It may have been broken, but it has not yet been broken."
It can be known.”
Gai Jun nodded. This was the same as his opinion. Even if Li Meng had strong troops at Jianguan, he might not be able to stop Yuan Shu and Lu Bu from attacking from both sides. As a result, the status of Gaoguan would become extremely important. Once Yuan Shu and Lu Bu allied forces
Tens of thousands of cavalry successfully passed through the Pass and arrived at Chang'an City. From the current duel between two heroes to a three-hero struggle for hegemony, the situation will be a hundred times more complicated.
"..." Gai Jun narrowed his eyes slightly, covering his sharp eyes. Hu Feng had followed him north and south since he was eighteen years old, fighting all over the world. After getting along for many years, they were not real brothers, but better than real brothers. He decided to save Hu Feng's face.
Give Li Jue three days. In the current situation, this is the limit. Whether Li Jue surrenders to Heshuo or refuses to surrender, the result will be known within three days. If Li Jue's messenger does not arrive within three days, then it will be a fool's errand.
No matter how Feng pleads for mercy, it's useless. He will kill the beast.
"General..." Gai Heng's voice outside the tent woke up Gai Jun from his deep thoughts.
Gai Heng entered the tent, nodded slightly to Zhang Liao, walked up to Gai Jun and whispered: "General, Li Zhiran's messenger is here. It's his younger brother, Li Huan, the captain of the bandit camp, who is outside the tent. General Hu also came over after hearing the news...
…”
Gai Jun was slightly surprised. This man couldn't help but keep saying, "Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here soon." He called Gai Heng and said, "Let them in." Then he turned to Zhang Liao and said, "It's Li Zhiran who sent someone to see him."
Zhang Liao stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Then I'll take my leave first."
Gai Jun waved his hand and said, "No need. I have a lot to say. I want to talk with Wen Yuan in detail. Wouldn't it be nice to stay up all night? It won't take long to receive Li Zhiran's messenger. Wen Yuan will just sit aside and wait."
Gai Jun's words obviously valued Zhang Liao more and looked down upon Li Jue's side. Although the facts may not be what Gai Jun said, Zhang Liao was still greatly moved and solemnly made a promise. Lu Fengxian compared with the Hussars General,
Is it really the difference between a firefly and a bright moon? The difference is more than a thousand times? Zhang Liao then had the impulse in his heart that "a scholar will die for his confidant".
Soon, Gai Heng led Hu Feng and a middle-aged man in. The middle-aged man was Li Huan, Li Jue's younger brother. He was nearly forty years old, of medium height and unremarkable in appearance. He only had a trace of calmness about him.
It's quite impressive to Gai Jun's eyes.
The Hussar General was only in his early thirties, and it was rumored that he looked younger than his actual age. Li Huan had never seen him before, so he thought it was just rumors and ignored him. According to his imagination, he could become a Hussar General.
To become the overlord of Northern Xinjiang, one must have a dignified appearance. Otherwise, how could a group of arrogant and powerful generals with world-famous reputations bow their heads and obey orders, willing to die? Unexpectedly, the rumors turned out to be true. Putting aside their identities, the Cavalry General looked the same as Hu.
Feng Chao is not much behind, the latter is only twenty-six years old this year...
Li Huan did not despise Gai Jun because of his youthful appearance. He was joking. The four words "horse cavalry general" represent invincibility in the world. Even Dong Zhuo feared him like a tiger and did not dare to compete with him. Who in the world dares to despise him?
He? Especially, Gai Jun sat upright and looked at him with extremely cold eyes, as if he was looking at... a dead person. Cold sweat broke out on Li Huan's forehead for a moment, he didn't dare to look anymore, and he quickly bowed down and said
: "I'm going to ask for help from the bandit captain Li Huan, and pay homage to the hussar general..."
Li Huan lay on the ground and could not respond for a long time. He really felt the pressure coming in like a vast ocean, wrapping around him and making him almost feel suffocated. It was not that Li Huan had never met people in the market, he even had an experience with Dong Zhuo.
Conversation at close range, but facing Gai Jun, the invincible cavalry general on the battlefield, my heart and body were trembling, and I couldn't control myself...
"..." Zhang Liao was on the side of both sides, not in the center, but he could also feel the shocking aura of Gai Jun. Whether it was in Jinyang a few years ago or still engraved, he only felt Gai Jun's rain.
Lu, when I saw the power of thunder, I suddenly realized that the combination of rain, Lu and thunder is the real hussar general. In my heart, only such a master can control the heroes, drive the wise men, and perch on the river.
Shuo, who was powerful in the world, went on to become the king of Chang'an and achieved unparalleled achievements.
After a long while, I heard Gai Jun say slowly: "Captain Li, get up."
Li Huan tried his best to calm down, but he was still sweating profusely, and his nervousness could not be concealed, and it was beyond words. Hu Feng and Li Huan stood side by side, their faces were dark enough to drip with ink, and it was Li Huan who came this time.
He is a generation older than him, and he treated him very well when he was young. He can't say anything. If Li Li, Li Xian and other contemporaries come here, with Hu Feng's temper, he will definitely be beaten and kicked. Damn these Li
Are you a bitch who dares to disobey a hussar general? Are you tired of living?
Hu Feng then turned his eyes and looked at Zhang Liao, who was standing aside, with a slightly lustful look. He had been following the hussar generals for these years. He had learned nothing else but to protect calves. The so-called Ding is Ding, Mao is Mao, Li
The Li family is his mother's family. No matter how he scolds the Li family in his heart, it is his personal and family affairs and no one else's turn to take care of them. However, a few days ago, Zhang Liao wounded Li Li at Aoguan, severely injured Li Xian, and chopped off several heads.
With the head of the Li clan, he can't pretend that nothing happened. His mother clan, Hu Feng, who said bullying can be bullied? Where does this put Hu Feng's face?
Seeing Hu Feng's behavior, Zhang Liao frowned. With his fiery character, of course he would fight an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. If he didn't accept it, he would challenge him. By the way, in the Bingzhou army, except for Lu Bu, who had never eaten his fist? However,
Now that he had just joined Heshuo's army, and with Gai Jun at his side, it was difficult for him to get angry, so he could only hold back his anger. As for Hu Feng's status and his personal relationship with General Hussar, they were not within Zhang Liao's consideration at all.
Even Lu Bu's brother-in-law Wei Xu dared to beat him up, why should he be afraid of Hu Feng?
Hu Feng smiled coldly at Zhang Liao and thought to himself, "General, why are you so crazy? Let's see how I will kill you in the future."
Gai Jun immediately noticed that the two of them were dirty. With his understanding of Hu Feng, he knew what he had in mind. He glanced at Hu Feng with an expressionless look, which was a hundred times sharper than a knife.
Immediately, his arrogance subsided, his eyebrows lowered and his head lowered.
Gai Jun knew that Hu Feng would definitely not give up, but he didn't bother to pay attention to it. There were many military ministers who cherished each other's hearts, and most of them disliked each other. After all, they were all reckless and rough people, even in the same state, county or even
There is no shortage of people from the same hometown who are not at odds with each other. As long as it does not escalate to the point of trying to undermine each other on the battlefield, thus affecting the overall situation, there are not many people who are not at odds with each other.
Gai Jun asked Li Huandao: "I wonder what Li Xiaowei asked to see Yu Gu for?"
"Brother Li Zhonglang heard that General Hussar had arrived in Chang'an to rescue the Emperor. He was very happy and said frankly that if he didn't come back now, when would he wait? He sent his troops day and night and conquered Dingyao Pass. Now I offer it to the general. I am willing to contribute to the general's great cause.
Let's add some help." After saying this, Li Huan subconsciously glanced sideways at Zhang Liao, remembering that the latter had massacred many people of the Li clan, and his murderous intention suddenly started. A cold snort came from above, and the murderous aura around Li Huan suddenly disappeared, and his face was full of murderous intent.
He was in a state of panic. It was obvious that Zhang Liao had surrendered to Heshuo. He wanted to kill Zhang Liao in front of the general Hussars. Wasn't he seeking death?
Gai Jun frowned slightly, thinking that although the Li family from Li Jue down had some talents, they were all unruly people. In the future, with Hu Feng's support, they might do whatever they want. It seemed that they were waiting to be integrated into the river.
Shuo Jun, I must find an opportunity to give it a good beating, sharpen it, and sharpen its edges so that it can be used for me. Hu Feng must also give a strict warning. I believe that as long as he explains his words, he should know
How, if he was smart enough...
Gai Jun spoke again: "Yuan Shu has not passed the martial arts pass yet."
"The general's true knowledge is like a god." Li Huan said solemnly: "Wuguan fell into the hands of Yuan Shu a few days ago. Li Meng led the remaining troops to surrender. Now Yuan Shu will ride tens of thousands of troops out of Wuguan and head north. No accident, tomorrow
We will arrive at the Aoguan Pass in the afternoon."
Gai Jun said lightly "Oh", not surprisingly, Li Jue sent people to surrender a few days earlier than he expected. He and Han Sui were now facing each other in the suburbs of Chang'an, and they had no time to take care of the Pass. The only threat could be Yuan Shu from the south.
Li Huan said: "Li Meng is brave and good at fighting, and he has strong soldiers. Even if Yuan Shu has a large number of people, there is nothing he can do. However, Lu Bu attacked from the north, and Li Meng was forced to fight on both sides. It was difficult to take care of both, so he was sent here. Li Huan slowly Xu shook his head and said with regret: "It's a pity that our army was blocked at Yaoguan for more than ten days and wasted a great opportunity. If we had broken through Yaoguan a few days earlier and killed Lu Bu from behind, Li Meng would have been relieved of his worries. Meng must remember the general's kindness and lead his troops to surrender. Yuan Shu, even if he devotes all the strength of the Jingchu state, it will be difficult to cross the natural chasm of Wuguan."
Hu Feng heard this and nodded repeatedly in agreement.
"Which one can't bear it..." Zhang Liao immediately became furious, his eyes were as bright as a torch, and he glared at Li Huan. He could hardly hold back and wanted to pounce on him and beat him to death. The meaning behind Li Huan's words was simply because of him. Guarding the Pass has led to the deterioration of the situation. If the Hussars General is even slightly dissatisfied with this, his future will become extremely bumpy. The other party is trying to destroy him.
Gai Jun couldn't help but laugh angrily. Li Huan was quite interesting. Even now, he still refused to give up. He tried to sow the relationship between him and Zhang Liao, and he did so very skillfully. For anyone else, no matter how broad-minded he was, Generations will be more or less dissatisfied with Zhang Liao, but Gai Jun, as a person who knows history, knows Zhang Liao's talents well and will not be swayed by this.
"If Wuguan is lost, it is lost. It is insignificant and does not affect the overall situation." Gai Jun said calmly, as if he had thrown away an ordinary toy casually, with no regrets on his face, and when he looked at Zhang Liao, he put on a slightly different one. He spoke with great enthusiasm: "Zhang Wenyuan is a wizard in northern Xinjiang. I have been alone for a long time and have always wished that we could not work together to accomplish great things. Now that I can get help from him, my wish is enough."
Not only was Li Huan unable to react for a moment, but even Hu Feng was dumbfounded. He had been with Gai Jun all year round, and of course he knew the latter's attitude towards talents. It was true that he was thirsty for talents, but he also had a clear distinction between hot and cold. After all, the general's temperament With his identity and status there, he doesn't need to waste any words, and talents will come back one after another. The general's praise of Zhang Liao has elevated him to a very high position, which is higher than that of Xu Huang and Gao Shun. Nothing less.
"Is Zhang Liao really worthy of the general's treatment?"
Hu's eyes were filled with tears, and his mind was spinning. In this way, Zhang Liao was almost certain to ascend to the throne. He was already the Lieutenant General of Yulin in the Chang'an Dynasty, and the Hussars General would not demote his position. In other words, Zhang Liao might He will soon ascend to the position of general. Although Hu Feng is not afraid, he is not someone he can easily manipulate. It seems that he needs to consider the long term...
All the anger in Zhang Liao's heart was gone. What else could he say? His life would belong to the Hussars General from now on.
The expressions of the three people changed. Gai Jun looked at them one by one, pretending not to see them, and asked Li Huan: "How many troops do Li Zhiran have under his command now?"
Li Huan woke up from his daze, feeling dizzy, and said without thinking: "No less than ten thousand people."
"Huh?" Gai Jun made a nasal sound, and the surrounding temperature seemed to drop.
"..." Li Huan looked confused and didn't know why.
Hu Feng secretly screamed, blaming Li Huan for being a good observer of appearance, eloquent, and decent at dealing with things just now. How could he be so confused now? A general has a strict character and hates boasting. Besides, there is no small matter in the army. The most taboo is to speak openly. There is no need to hide anything, just tell the truth."
Li Huan understood immediately and said again: "I dare not hide it from the general. I don't know the details. Maybe there are nearly eight thousand?"
Seeing that Li Huan was not honest, Gai Jun said bluntly: "Even the wounded soldiers are included in the calculation." Before Li Huan arrived, he had an in-depth conversation with Zhang Liao, a person involved in the Battle of Yaoguan, and made further speculations. Even though
I can't calculate the exact number of Li Jun, but I estimate that they are close to ten. How can I be deceived by Li Huan?
"The general is wise, the general is wise..." Li Huancheng said in fear.
"How many warriors are there left who can fight?" Gai Jun asked again, his tone already extremely cold.
Li Huan did not dare to hide anything anymore and answered honestly: "More than six thousand."
Gai Jun nodded slightly. This number was exactly in line with his guess, so he knew that the other party had told the truth. He said, "How many troops did Yuan Shu bring north?"
Li Huan gave a deep sigh and replied: "There are a lot of them, about 30,000, both on foot and on horseback. Their military appearance is very mighty and majestic."
"Li Zhiran can send out his troops alone to help him." More than 6,000 Li troops guarded the Aoguan Pass, one against five, so there shouldn't be a big problem. Even if Yuan Shu sent troops to bypass the tomb and lead the mountain and adopt the method of attacking from the north and the south, the Aoguan Pass would not be a problem.
He couldn't defeat it in an instant, but Gai Jun still asked.
As expected, Li Huan shook his head and refused, patted his chest, and said generously: "General, this is a critical period to fight against thieves. How can we easily mobilize our troops? Although Yuan Shu's army is large, we can block it with all our strength, so that the general will not be distracted to the south."
"
Gai Jun smiled. Since Li Jun wanted to enjoy his own contribution, he had no objection. He would just do it.
Then they chatted for a while. Gai Jun expressed his sleepiness on the grounds that the night was already deep and signaled to Hu Feng. Li Huan stepped back. The two of them said goodbye. Before turning to leave, they looked at Zhang Liao in unison, with complicated eyes that were difficult to understand. No wonder the two of them said goodbye.
In this way, Gai Jun simply ordered them to retreat and left Zhang Liao alone in the tent. The meaning behind it is very thought-provoking...
Gai Jun looked at Hu Feng, and Li Huan left the tent. He turned to Zhang Liao and smiled and said: "The common people have left, so we can have a detailed discussion with Wen Yuan. If you are sleepy, then stay up and sleep. Tomorrow, we will join hands to fight against the national thieves. This is true."
Life is so fast. Does Wen Yuan think so?"
"Exactly." Zhang Liao also smiled.
"Hahahaha..." Hearty laughter circled up and floated out of the tent.
Li Huan'er heard General Hussar's laughter, his face turned pale, and he sighed helplessly: "I didn't expect Zhang Liao's son to be treated like this by General Hussar. I didn't expect that his status in the future would be lower than Ziyi...
It is difficult to avenge this revenge, but more than ten tribesmen died tragically under Zhang Liao's sword..."
The burning torches around him made Hu Feng's face flicker in and out, and he could only hear him saying faintly: "Do you think I'm an idiot?"
"..." Li Huan was suddenly startled, and then he remembered that this clan sister's son was already as good as a general. Only a few people in Heshuo could compare with him. Anyone who has climbed to this position is not a human being. Hu
Feng appears to be reckless, but in fact he is very understanding.
