Chapter 107: Reunion (6)
The county lord was distracted for a moment, and when his attention returned, everyone's greetings were over. Yecheng is not as fashionable as Luoyang Chengri to talk about the Tao, and his speech can also involve practice, and at this moment, he asked Yu Zheng about Lu Yao's views on Youzhou Jun and Wang Pengzu. This seemed to be a question that Lu Yao was willing to answer, but I saw him groan slightly, and then he talked eloquently:
"Since Emperor Wu abolished the state and county soldiers, the military equipment in various places has been abolished, and the kings have used criminals and servants as soldiers when attacking and fighting, and the temporary department has adopted military law, even if there are hundreds of thousands of people, only one or two out of ten can fight, only Qin, Liang, You, and other northern lands, there are still strong soldiers. Among them, the Youzhou Iron Cavalry is the most ferocious. Wang Pengzu commanded tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of various ethnic groups in Hu and Jin, especially cavalry. Whenever they are fighting, they will try to make a surprise attack with light cavalry, and they will leave with one blow, so as to pull the enemy's position and prevent the enemy from resting. When the enemy army shows its flaws, it will send strong troops to attack together. If the enemy is scattered, the whole army will march in a tide to ensure complete victory; If the enemy is unmoved, the cavalry covers each other and slowly retreats to fight again. In its army, there are more heavy cavalry equipped with armor and cavalry as the core, and when the two armies are holding each other, they suddenly kill, which is enough to turn things around. I once led the army to contact the Youzhou army, although the two armies were only half a day, the soldiers on behalf of the land have been killed and wounded. ”
Regarding the battle between the Daijun Army and the Youzhou Army on the grassland, Wei County's civil and military clubs had heard of it, but they also chose to pretend to be deaf and dumb. After all, neither the imperial court nor the king of the East China Sea had any intention of getting involved in the confrontation between these two powerful armies in northern Xinjiang, and he Yu sat in Yecheng, just wanting nothing to do, let alone doing more. But since Lu Yao took the initiative to mention it, the Zhengbei General's Mansion was also interested in exploring it.
He Yu and the others glanced at each other, and Shi Huang Du, the right chief, asked: "Speaking of the war between General Lu and Wang Pengzu, we are far away, and we really don't know why. What is the cause of this conflict, and can Brother Daoming explain a little? ”
Lu Yao shook his head again and again: "The entanglement between Daijun and Youzhou is complicated. Now that Wang Pengzu has died violently, Lu will inevitably suspect himself if he asks himself......"
"Where is the ......" Thinking of Zhou Liang's precedent in front of him, Huang Du was reluctant to follow in his footsteps. He glanced at the county lord who was listening very covertly, and hurriedly explained: "Brother Daoming, I have no intention of doing this, but I am just curious...... Just curious! ”
"The strategy of governing the northern grasslands in the past dynasties was, on the one hand, to use the wealth and power of the Central Plains as a means to balance the power of the Hu, so that they could control each other; On the other hand, it has stationed strong troops in northern Xinjiang as a deterrent. Wang Pengzu faced a different situation, he went out of Youzhou for several years, and many times led his army south to the Central Plains to participate in the kings' conquests, which caused heavy losses to the Youzhou border army, which was originally dominated by Jin people, and lost the role of deterring Hu'er. Fortunately, he is good at dancing with long sleeves, and he is good at using the name of the marriage girl to lure Zhuhu and use it for his own use. Due to the large number of Hu warriors under his command, the Youzhou Shogunate has always maintained a strong force, but ......" Lu Yao sighed: "This power is not something that Wang Pengzu can completely control. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Most of the Hu warriors under Wang Jun's command belong to their respective tribes, and they only obey Qu Shuai's orders. Although they are brave and good at fighting, they have won every battle, but every victory makes them understand the weakness of the Great Jin. As a result, the Youzhou army became more and more arrogant and unscrupulous, and Wang Pengzu's control of the Youzhou army became more and more difficult, and many times, he was even coerced by Hu Er's intentions. Just like the cause of the conflict in Weiyuan, Lu was always baffled, and the battle in Changshan also came from the provocation of the Youzhou army, and the Jinyang army was completely unprepared...... This may be evident. In my eyes, the Youzhou Army is like a loose war horse with black cloth in its eyes, even if it runs wild like lightning, there will eventually be a time when the rider will fall to the ground. ”
He Yu showed a thoughtful expression: "Daoming is saying that Wang Pengzu can't help himself?" ”
Lu Yao said: "Not bad." Although Wang Pengzu died at the hands of the Jinyang army, the real reason was from the Hu people, the Hu people needed land, Wang Jun had to grab the land, the Hu people needed the population, Wang Jun had to plunder the population, there was an inevitable reason. However, due to Wang Pengzu's unexpected death, the Huhu of Youzhou must also be in a mess at this moment, and it is difficult to explore which tribe instigated his trip to Changshan. ”
Huang Du frowned, and tapped a few volumes of documents on the desk: "Daoming's idea is very fresh. It's just that you have also read the books of Bingzhou and Jizhou, and the opinions of Liu Yueshi and Ding Shulun are very different from Daoming. ”
Everyone knows that Wang Jun's position as the Youzhou Assassin was not right, but he came from himself after murdering the Youzhou Assassin History and Performance appointed by Wang Sima Ying in Chengdu a few years ago. In order to win over the Youzhou army, the king of the East China Sea instigated the imperial court to recognize it. And He Yan, who died at the hands of Wang Jun, was of the same clan as Yu, so He Yu had a bit of a knot in Wang Jun's heart.
Huang Du knew that since the general of the expedition to the north took office, although he had not deliberately embarrassed Wang Jun, he was happy to hear the news of his death, and he was even more appreciative of the expression of the Erzhou assassination.
And, the expression of the two states of Hebei is not top secret, and the copy of the general's mansion in the north has been copied here. On the table, Liu Kun, the assassin of Bingzhou, was naturally angry because of the surprise attack of his troops and his nephew Liu Yan, and wanted to exonerate Wang Jun for killing Wang Jun for his own army, so he scolded Wang Jun so much that he was bloody, to the effect that this gentleman was reckless, arrogant, undisciplined, and unsubservient, so this time it was his own death, not the fault of the state. Although the expression of Jizhou Assassin Shi Ding Shao is not as fierce as that of Bingzhou, it also uses a considerable amount of space to criticize Wang Pengzu for his selfish use, and he does not patrol in the face of Shile thieves, but instead grabs the neighboring cities and counties. Ding Shao was forced by Wang Jun's power, and his power was difficult to reach the northern counties, so that he often laughed at himself as a rare weak Jizhou assassin in the past dynasties.
No matter how much Wang Pengzu's status was during his lifetime, since he is dead, he has no value, no matter Liu Yueshi or Ding Shulun, he will no longer have no scruples about the dead. Huang Du could almost confirm that in order to appease the two Fang towns, the king of the East China Sea would inevitably attribute the blame to Wang Jun. But according to Lu Yao's meaning, it seems that he is excusing Wang Jun?
Facing the puzzled eyes of Huang Du and others, Lu Yao pondered for a long time, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Although Wang Pengzu is located in Youzhou, with the power of Xianbei Iron Cavalry, he has waved his army several times to shake the Central Plains. Don't hide it from you, Lu's mind is actually no different from the two states. However......"
He lowered his voice slightly: "Wang Pengzu, as a hussar general and the prince of Boling County, is a high lord and a world-famous person, and everyone knows that he has made great contributions to His Royal Highness the King of the East China Sea to seize the central authority, and is a powerful ally of His Royal Highness the King of the East China Sea. Now that he is dead, he will denounce him as a rebel, what good will it do His Highness? ”
He Yu was taken aback. He raised his hand to stop Huang Du's questioning, leaned forward and said, "Daoming, please tell me more." ”
"Now that the Shile thieves have entered Henan in a big way, they are afraid of confluencing with the Central Plains giant Wang Mi and others. They also jointly respected the orders of the Xiongnu and Han States, and their prestige reached that of the Hu and Jin ethnic groups, and the momentum was huge. I privately calculated that even if the king of the East China Sea stationed hundreds of thousands of heavy troops in Xuchang, it would be difficult to contain Shile. To confront it in an all-round way, it must rely on Tu Bo Gouxi, who has an army of 100,000 and is dominant in Yanzhou. Lu Yao smiled a little contemptuously, looked around at everyone and said slowly: "Ladies and gentlemen, Gou Dao will belong to a brotherly alliance with the King of the East China Sea, and his status is similar to that of Wang Pengzu, and his closeness to His Royal Highness the King of the East China Sea is also similar to that of Wang Pengzu. If the king of the East China Sea can't be lenient with Wang Jun, what will happen to Gou Dao? With the violent character of Gou Daojiang, is the king of the East China Sea ...... Can you bear his suspicions? ”
In Lu Yao's words, he didn't have much respect for the strength of His Royal Highness the King of the East China Sea, but even the county lord of Jingling couldn't care about accusing him of being rude.
Everyone here wanted to ask Lu Yao's views on the situation in Youzhou, but they never thought that Lu Yao's words would bring the topic to a completely different aspect. Thinking of the terrible consequences he revealed, the sound of everyone inhaling in unison was like a light breeze sweeping through the hall.
