Chapter 796: The Beginning of Revenge
The Battle of Yizhou came to an end because of Liu Zhang's surrender, and Chen Xu added the land of Yizhou again.
Even those Bashu heroes who did not appear because Liu Zhang was weak and thought that he was not the master, most of them also came to vote under Chen Xu's requisition.
For a time, Chen Xu's sharpness made the princes of the world panic.
Even if he is as arrogant as Yuan Benchu, as heroic as Cao Mengde, and brave and good at fighting like Sun Bofu, he feels extremely strong pressure at this time.
Of course, all of this is a later story.
As for Tian Feng's departure with the seal and going to Liu Zhang, Chen Xu never mentioned a word.
Not only that, Chen Xu's favor for Tian Feng is even better than before.
It can be said that if Tian Feng hadn't persuaded Liu Zhang to surrender, Chen Xu might not have been able to take the entire Yizhou so easily.
If Liu Zhang abandons the city again and flees, it will be unknown when he will be able to capture the entire territory of Yizhou.
Tian Feng's contribution is definitely no less than a large-scale victory.
Although Liu Zhang had surrendered, Chen Xu had been delayed in Yizhou for more than three months, and spring was almost over.
As soon as Chen Xu took the entire Yizhou, he wanted to rush to Liangzhou as soon as possible, but he was bound by various things, and there was no way to get his wish.
Chen Hu also repeatedly asked to lead the troops to Liangzhou, but Wen Zhao remembered that in history, Zhang Fei died to avenge Guan Yu, but he didn't dare to rashly let him go alone.
For this matter, Chen Hu had lost his temper with Wen Zhao more than once, which was completely unthinkable before.
Wen Zhao understood Chen Hu's feelings, no matter how much Chen Hu made trouble, he just soothed with kind words, and then tried his best to solve the various problems left behind by Yizhou.
Spring is gradually coming to an end, and after the arrival of summer, the land of Bashu, surrounded by mountains, is even more vibrant.
Although Yizhou, which has been war-torn for a long time, has not been able to recover to the same situation as before, the situation is slowly improving.
Especially after the new law in Guanzhong began to be popularized, the people of Yizhou slowly came out of the shadow of the slaughter of the city and began to accept this new life, but there were still some shadows in their hearts.
Chengdu, the state pastor's mansion, Chen Xu convened his subordinates to discuss the matter of sending troops to Liangzhou.
Chen Jing's hatred, Wen Zhao has been suppressed for too long, and he is unwilling to wait any longer.
Every time he was about to lose his grip, he couldn't help but pick up the sword, which Chen Jing gave him, and gently stroked the word 'Jing' engraved on it.
That word, as if it had extraordinary magic, could always calm Chen Xu down.
It is precisely because of this that Chen Xu has been able to endure until now, even after capturing Yizhou, he did not rashly lead his troops to Liangzhou.
Looking at the people who had become radiant again after more than two months of rest, Chen Xu said in a deep voice: "Everything in Yizhou has been roughly decided, and I want to defeat the army and kill Liangzhou." ”
Chen Xu's voice was not loud, but everyone could feel the killing intent hidden in it.
Chen Hu had been waiting for this day for a long time, and hurriedly jumped out and shouted: "The lord sent troops to Liangzhou, and he is willing to be a pioneer!" ”
After finishing speaking, Chen Hu also glanced around at everyone in the governor's mansion, and all the generals knew this in their hearts, and did not compete with Chen Hu for the position of pioneer.
After all, everyone is not stupid, and they will not offend the angry Chen Hu because of a pioneer position.
Although Chen Hu does not have any great military achievements, he is the favorite brother of his own lord, and everyone understands the truth of intimacy.
Therefore, in this situation, everyone was very strangely quiet.
Glancing at Chen Hu, Wen Zhao gently stroked the hilt of the sword with his right hand, feeling the handwriting engraved on it, frowning and pondering for a long time.
After a while, Chen Xu said: "In this battle, I want to lead the army, personally act as the vanguard, and avenge Ah Jing with Ma Chao." ”
"As for Ah Hu, just follow me around."
After losing Chen Jing, Wen Zhao suffered even more from gains and losses, and he definitely didn't want to see Chen Hu lose, so he didn't dare to let him be a pioneer at all.
Otherwise, with Chen Hu's impulsive character, he might do something, and if Chen Hu had another accident, Chen Xu might really go crazy.
Everyone also knows that their own lord has been suppressed for too long during this time, and no one has spoken out against it.
When they learned that Chen Jing was killed in battle and Chen Xu desperately wanted to withdraw his troops, everyone felt that they still remembered it vividly.
If it weren't for Jia Xu's persuasion, maybe Guan Zhongjun's efforts for so long would have come to naught, and Yizhou would not have completely belonged to Chen Xu.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Chen Xu's brows stretched slightly, and said: "Yizhou was initially decided, but the people have not completely returned to their hearts, and various contradictions have not been completely resolved. ”
"The land of Bashu is a critical place, but I don't know who can garrison this place for me?"
When Guan Chinese Wu heard Chen Xu's words, he couldn't help but straighten his chest and stared at Chen Xu with burning eyes.
Yizhou is too far away from Guanzhong, and it is the country of abundance, as long as he holds the position of a county taishou here, he can be regarded as a soil emperor.
But in the face of Chen Xu's inquiry, no one recommended himself.
In fact, Chen Xu already had a plan in his heart, so it was just a scene, how could he really arrange people at will?
After a long silence in the state pastor's mansion, Chen Xu set his eyes on Tian Feng and said: "In this battle of Yizhou, Yuan Hao shocked Bashu, and everyone in Yizhou knew Yuan Hao's reputation. ”
"I intend to appoint Yuan Hao as the assassin of Yizhou, I don't know what Yuan Hao thinks?"
For Chen Xu's sudden appointment, everyone's faces changed, and their faces were full of disbelief.
The position of a state assassin is by no means trivial, especially in troubled times, and it cannot be easily faked.
This is also why, there are obviously many talented people in Guanzhong, but the position of Liangzhou Assassin is still held by Chen Jing, and no one has spoken out against it.
Nepotism, although it is not a compliment, can only be so in troubled times, and Chen Gong's position as the state pastor is also for this reason.
The land of Yizhou is the land of abundance, and its importance is even far greater than that of Bingzhou and Liangzhou.
The generals in Guanzhong thought that this time Chen Xu would appoint his clan again to serve as the assassin of Yizhou.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xu would choose Tian Feng in the end.
"Lord, lord, the position of Yizhou Assassin is not trivial, and I hope that the lord will be cautious."
Even Tian Feng, who has always been calm, was a little dumbfounded at this time, he couldn't believe his ears, and he actually stumbled a little when he spoke.
Chen Xu walked up to Tian Feng's side, took his arm and sighed: "Among the many strategists in Guanzhong, Mr. was the first to defect to me, if there was no Mr., how could Chen Xu be today?" ”
Speaking of this, Chen Xu looked around at everyone and said loudly: "You are all loyal people, and Mr. is the best among them, if even Mr. can't be trusted, can I trust anyone?" ”
Hearing such words, everyone's faces flushed, and their hearts were stirred.
The position of a state assassin can be faked to others, and he is not a member of his own clan, which can't help but make everyone feel that Chen Xu is extraordinary.
Chen Xu was very satisfied with everyone's performance, and he said to Tian Feng again: "The land of Yizhou will be handed over to Mr. in the future." ”
Afterwards, Chen Xu took out the seal of the Yizhou Thorn History and handed it to Tian Feng.
Tian Feng's mood was also very excited, kneeling on the ground and taking the seal ribbon with both hands, and said: "Unless I die, the land of Yizhou will definitely become the most solid backing for the lord." ”
Chen Xu pulled Tian Feng up and said, "With Mr.'s talent, it is easy to defend Yizhou for me, so how can you talk about the word 'death'?" ”
For the land of Yizhou, Chen Xu had to be cautious.
Although he also wanted his clan to serve as the assassin of Yizhou, after thinking about it, he felt that there was no suitable candidate.
After all, the Chen family's foundation is too weak.
Although Chen Qun is talented, he is the kind of internal affairs talent who can help Chen Xu handle domestic government affairs in an orderly manner, but he can't stand in the way of one side.
Chen Hu is more than brave, but not enough strategy, and he can't take on big responsibilities; Chen Qing is too cautious, so that he can only be said to be average compared with the rest of the talents.
Especially Chen Jing's death, Chen Xu also understood a truth, that is, nepotism can sometimes backfire.
If the assassin of Liangzhou had not let Chen Jing take responsibility at the beginning, maybe there would not have been Chen Jing killed in battle and defeated Liangzhou.
Now that he had learned this lesson, Chen Xu had to change his mentality and start using those who were really talented and loyal enough to stand alone.
He also believes that Tian Feng will never betray himself.
The importance of Yizhou is self-evident, not only to become the granary of Guanzhong, as well as the export of soldiers, but also to attack Jingzhou in the future.
Relying on Tian Feng alone is not enough to take on this important task, and in Yizhou, there must be elite soldiers and fierce generals stationed there.
After considering various factors, the personnel arrangement in Yizhou was finally decided.
Tian Feng is the history of Yizhou Thorn, and Zhang Song is engaged in Yizhou; Gan Ning is the Taishou of Bajun, and Wu Yi is the deputy general; Xu Huang served as the Taishou of Hanzhong, Yan Pu was the chief of Hanzhong, and Deng Xian was the deputy general.
As a native, Zhang Song is an indispensable figure for balancing the various forces in Yizhou.
Gan Ning was born in Ba County, and he led the Jinfan thieves across the territory of Ba County at the beginning, and he was famous, so it was very appropriate for him to serve as the Taishou of Ba County.
Moreover, the rivers in Ba County are vertical and horizontal, and the Yangtze River leads directly to Jingzhou, if Gan Ning is allowed to train an elite naval army here, he will be able to directly enter Jingzhou along the Yangtze River in the future.
Even if the Jingzhou soldiers attacked, with Gan Ning's talent, they could keep the enemy out of the country. No matter how you think about it, the position of Bajun Taishou is none other than Gan Ning.
As for Xu Huang, he was originally the Taishou of Hanzhong, and Yan Pu was also the master of Hanzhong.
Hanzhong is the junction of Yizhou and Guanzhong, Liangzhou and Jingzhou, and it goes out of Hanzhong to the east, and it takes less than a day to kill Xiangyang, the seat of Jingzhou.
Hanzhong is not only populous, but also extremely strategically located, and it is simply impossible to garrison without a general.
It can be said that in order to make the entire Yizhou impregnable, Chen Xu made a ruthless effort and sent several important figures in Guanzhong to lead the troops to garrison this place.
As for Jingzhou, it was exposed to the Yizhou army at any time.
After the personnel arrangements were completed, Chen Xu not only scattered the Yizhou soldiers, but also left 30,000 elites in the pass.
Subsequently, Chen Xu asked Jia Xu, Zhang Ji, Zhang Yu, Fa Zheng, Zhang Ren, Liu Zhang and others to lead the army back to Guanzhong.
As for himself, he didn't bring a single strategist, but only led Dian Wei, Lu Bu and others, as well as 10,000 soldiers and horses, to kill Ben Liangzhou directly.
Before leaving, Chen Xu held Jia Xu's hand and said, "Thanks to Mr. You's advice before, otherwise I will definitely make a big mistake." ”
"Sergeant Guan was tired from fighting for a long time, although he rested for a while, after all, because he was not accustomed to the water and soil, his combat effectiveness decreased very much."
"And my battle with Ma Chao this time is very likely to go to the desert, and the foot soldiers are not enough to take on the heavy task of pursuing the enemy army, so I will only lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to Liangzhou."
"Zilong will soon lead the Guanzhong cavalry and go to Liangzhou to help in the battle."
After such a long period of calmness, Chen Xu also thought about many questions, and knew that if he wanted to completely defeat the Qiang people, he still had to use cavalry as the main force.
Chen Jing's decision to get out of the jam with a foot pawn was originally a wrong decision.
This time, not only Zhao Yun will lead 10,000 elite cavalry to Liangzhou, but also the newly formed 5,000 cavalry will also go together.
As for why he didn't bring a strategist, Chen Xu felt that it was completely unnecessary.
Saiwai is no better than others, and it doesn't take much strategy to fight the Qiang people, all you want is to crush it with strength.
What's more, the role of strategists on the battlefield is not as big as imagined, and most of them plan outside the battlefield.
When the two armies really fought, they still relied on comprehensive strength, and in some places the strategists were not capable of intervening at all.
For example, in the face of an immovable mountain, no matter how brilliant the strategists are, they cannot let the mountain collapse.
For example, even Zhuge Liang, who is as wise as a demon, when attacking Chen Cang, faced Hao Zhao's impeccable defense, he couldn't do anything if he was full of wisdom.
There is also a very important reason, the battle outside the Cypriot is different from others, even the strongest soldiers may die of illness, let alone the strategists.
Just like Guo Jia in history, if it weren't for the expedition to Wuhuan, because of the lack of adaptation to water and soil and the long-distance travel, he would not have died so early.
There is no record in the history books that Guo Jia is not in good health, and Cao Cao later said that he wanted to wait for his death to give Guo Jia orphans.
It can be seen that Cao Cao thought that Guo Jia would live longer than himself at first, although Guo Jia was young, it can also be inferred that Guo Jia's health should not be too bad in normal times.
If it hadn't been for that expedition to Wuhuan, maybe Guo Jia would have lived longer than Cao Cao.
It was precisely because of this uncertainty that Chen Xu did not let a strategist follow him, and he didn't want any accidents to occur with these people.
And Chen Xu is confident, when it comes to leading troops to fight and abandoning the benevolence of women, he will not be worse than anyone else.
I once thought that Chen Wenzhao, who led the Yellow Turban Army and dominated the world with weak troops, would reign on the earth again at this time, shaking the entire desert.
He wants to use the spear in his hand, the blood in his heart, and the elite soldiers under his command to level the entire Longxi.
