Chapter 140: Epilogue (End)

What Lu Yao said explained why he adopted such a tough policy in Daijun, but it did not answer all of Xue Tong's doubts.

Lu Yao, Ding Miao and other 30 warriors from Bingzhou were ordered by Yue Shigong to go east to Taihang, originally to coordinate Jizhou and invite troops to deter Daijun in northern Xinjiang, as a backing for Wen Qiao to come when he sent an envoy to Danhan Mountain. However, Lu Yao actually directly captured Daijun, and what he did far exceeded everyone's imagination.

Lu Yao, as Liu Kun's subordinate general and staff, was recommended by Liu Kun, but he was suddenly favored by His Royal Highness the King of the East China Sea, and he seemed to have become a powerful party with independent military and political power. What kind of attitude will he have towards the history of Liu Tingshi? Even how did the generals under his command who were born in the state coordinate their relationship with the state? Since you want to gain a foothold in Daigun, you have to think about this issue.

But not everyone will ask Lu Yao this question.

Ding Miao probably has a mentality of not caring, he is the nephew of Ding Shao, the assassin of Jizhou, and he is a general who has won the trust of Yue Shigong, and there has never been such a trivial matter in his eyes. With Wen Qiao's acumen, he must have expected this, but he was facing the Danhan Mountain Sacrifice Ceremony, and he really had no time to be distracted by this. As for Shao Xu, this Anyang celebrity is entangled in complicated government affairs, and he is so busy that he is dying and alive. Or Shen Jin and others, they are limited by their vision and knowledge, and they can't think of this at all. In this way, only Xue Tong will be worried about this and speak out.

Especially after Xue Tong inadvertently learned that Yue Shigong's perception of Lu Yao was not as simple as it appeared.

Xue Tong's worries made Lu Yao feel gratified, and from a certain point of view, this is precisely where Xue Tong's value as a deputy general lies. He wanted to take the opportunity to have a good exchange with this trusted assistant.

Lu Yao said with a smile: "Old Xue is too worried, we have no problem with Jinyang." This time, it is enough to let Xiong Wenlin go. ”

"Daoming means ......" Xue Tong perked up.

"Old Xue, have you paid attention to the position that the King of the East China Sea recommended me to serve?"

"General Yingyang, Daijun Taishou, Supervisor Daishanggu, Quang Ninh County Military. This is an important position that is also in charge of military and political power, and is enough to exercise authority in northern Xinjiang. ”

Lu Yao bowed his head and asked again: "So, old Xue, do you think I am really worthy of this position?" ”

This is a tricky question, especially as a subordinate, and it is even more difficult to answer. Under normal circumstances, it seemed that only a proper compliment was needed, but Xue Tong knew that Lu Yao didn't need that. When this appointment was announced a few days ago, Lu Yao's subordinates were all surprised by the appointment, and this surprise had already explained the answer.

Xue Tong showed a cautious look and said slowly: "In my humble opinion, with Daoming's talent, I am more than competent enough." However, in terms of TD's prestige, it seems to be slightly insufficient. ”

"Haha, Lao Xue, you're right!" Lu Yao clapped his hands: "You, Shao Gong, Lao Shen, Liu Yao, etc., and even Liu Fei, Chen Pei and others, are all handsome characters with literary and military talents, and with the help of all the gentlemen, I am confident that I can do something in Northern Xinjiang." However, the court has always employed people who have only been reprimanded, and those who have been promoted to the throne in recent years are all people from wealthy families...... Lu Yao was just after Jiangdong was demoted, in addition to the axe, and he was born in the army, so he should have been despised by high-ranking officials. Why does the imperial court attach importance to this, and why does the king of the East China Sea love me Lu Yao alone? ”

"Uh......" Xue Tong lowered his voice again: "Could it be the county lord of Jingling?" ”

Xue Tong has always attached great importance to the friendship of fighting side by side with the county lord and his party in the Taihang Mountains, and he even used this as a reason to persuade Lu Yao to go to Luoyang to develop. Considering that the person who came to represent the county with the recommendation document of the King of the East China Sea was Wang De, the head of the guard of the county lord of Jingling, it was natural for Xue Tong to make such a guess.

"Old Xue...... Old Xue ......" Lu Yao raised his hand to support his forehead, interrupting Xue Tong's speculation. Completely contrary to Xue Tong, Lu Yao has never taken the county lord's woman to heart, and his perspective on the problem is also different: "We must look far, and then go far!" ”

Lu Yao stood up and tapped his chest with his finger: "I am the Jiangdong Shi clan, and I am not from the Central Plains clan. He previously served under the command of the King of Chengdu, which is also a stain that is difficult to erase. Now, the elite of the Jisang thieves who used to crisscross the north and south of the river and the dead soldiers of the old subordinates of the king of Chengdu belong to my subordinates to fight in the northern Xinjiang; However, the power of the imperial court was restrained by Shi Le and could not move in the south of Jizhou. ”

"Under such circumstances, those guys in Luoyang desperately want the stability of northern Xinjiang. Of course, all they can do is a few official positions. That's why I've been able to get so much reuse. But at the same time, they don't want me to gain a foothold in Northern Xinjiang too smoothly, so these positions can also be said to have deep meanings......" Lu Yao did not hide the sarcasm in his mouth: "There is a hussar general in Jicheng, and there is a general in Pingbei in Jinyang, who should I, General Yingyang, listen to?" Since Dai County belongs to Youzhou, it is too obedient to obey the order of the assassination history, but since I am in charge of the military of the three counties of Dai, Shanggu, and Guangning, can the soldiers and horses of Youzhou in the second county of Shanggu and Guangning really be supervised by me? Think about the last sentence of the edict of the king of the East China Sea, the position of Sima of Pingbei is the same as before. After obtaining Daijun, am I still a subordinate of Yue Shi Gong? In such a situation, if Tuoba Xianbei makes any changes, who should I turn to for help? If the contradiction with Duan Xianbei intensifies, can the Youzhou Thorn Shi be dealt with impartially? ”

"I'm a little confused, Daoming ......" Lu Yao's series of questions were like heavy blows again and again, making Xue Tong a little stunned. He followed Lu Yao and walked a few steps, and said in a hesitant and somewhat angry tone: "You mean, the imperial court deliberately put us in conflict and entanglement with the two states of Youhe?" ”

This kind of behavior is the most intolerable and hated by the soldiers who fought on the battlefield. Under such calculations, what did the blood and tears paid by the soldiers for the Great Jin Dynasty be treated?

"Exactly." Lu Yao nodded indifferently: "Old Xue Mo wants to be annoyed, this is just the usual method of the imperial court, it can be described as killing three birds with one stone, and it is not aimed at us alone." You see, Wang Jun of Jicheng relied on the strength of the Xianbei people to dominate the north, and he has always been unruly, although he nominally respects the imperial court, in fact, it is tantamount to secession. The king of the East China Sea has no control over the whip chief of Youzhou, so he can only pretend to be a high-ranking official to appease him. In this Jizhou rebellion, Wang Jun, as the governor of Dongyi Hebei, did not move, which must have caused the displeasure of the king of the East China Sea. If the independent Daijun can contain Jicheng, all the princes of the court will be happy to see it. On the other hand, Yue Shigong defeated 100,000 Xiongnu soldiers in Jinyang with a tired crowd, and his prestige shook the world, and he formed an alliance with Tuoba Xianbei in the west. For this reason, the effective generals under the command of Yue Shigong were specially promoted and promoted to the position of being in charge, which is also the way of employing people. The promotion of a Daijun Taishou made the two states feel the same way, and there are obviously smart people in the shogunate of the East China Sea King, haha, haha. ”

Lu Yao looked at Xue Tong, who had a deep face, and patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "Do you understand?" If we want to gain a foothold in northern Xinjiang, we will face a complex situation that is difficult to predict. The Tuoba Department, the Duan Department, and Youzhou Wang Jun all need us to raise 120,000 spirit to deal with it. In contrast, Jinyang's side is no longer a problem, with Yue Shigong's wisdom, where can he not see this little trick clearly? Old Xue, you don't have to worry too much. ”

It turns out that the so-called "no problem with Jinyang" is because there are too many problems in other aspects?

The joy brought by the capture of Daijun suddenly disappeared, and Xue Tong only felt the heavy pressure on his shoulders, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
