Chapter 1026: Capital Crimes Can Be Avoided Living Sins Are Inescapable
The maid was full of panic and did not respond to Liu Wei.
The guard told her that Lu Bu and others led the army to break through the Xuanyuan Pass, and they didn't say too much about the content, and she didn't know how to explain it to Liu Wei.
Originally, he didn't plan to get any definite news from the maids, so Liu Wei stood up and said to the two maids who served him to get up: "Sue the princess, this king has urgent affairs, go first!" β
"No!" The two maids responded softly, and after serving Liu Bian, he had finished washing and dressing, and Liu Bian did not delay, so he left Guan Qing's dormitory directly.
Wang Liu and Wang Zhen were already waiting outside the door of the dormitory, and when they saw Liu Wei coming, they both bowed down and clasped their fists together and saluted Liu Bian.
"Lu Bu and the others broke through Xuanyuan Pass, what are the details?" Seeing Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, Liu Wei knew that they must have learned the details from the guards, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked about the battle at Xuanyuan Pass.
Following behind Liu Bian, Wang Zhen described the details he heard from the guards to Liu Bian, and seeing that Liu Bian's face was very bad, he asked in a low voice: "Isn't Your Highness just going to break through Xuanyuan Pass, why is your face unhappy?" β
"Breaking through the Xuanyuan Pass, it is a matter of time or time, Lu Bu will break through the pass too early, once the Qingzhou army enters the mountains, it will be even more difficult for our army to drive straight to Xudu!" Frowning slightly, Liu Wei said to Wang Zhen: "Immediately send an order down and severely reprimand Lu Bu, Tai Shici, and Zhang Liao!" β
After Wang Zhen responded, Liu Wei seemed to remember something, stopped, and said to her and Wang Liu: "Lu Bu categorically has no such scheme, but he can easily break through Xuanyuan Pass, you wait to investigate, who gave him the idea!" β
"No!" Seeing that Liu Wei was already very unhappy in his heart because of this matter, Wang Liu and Wang Zhen didn't dare to say anything, so they hurriedly responded.
Out of the back garden, Liu Wei went straight to the front hall.
As soon as he arrived outside the front hall, he instructed the guards to invite Xu Shu and other advisers to the hall to discuss the change of the next combat deployment.
After sitting in the hall for a short time, Xu Shu and others, who had been summoned by Liu Wei, came one after another.
Everyone greeted Liu Bian, sat down in order in the hall, and turned their heads to look at Liu Bian, waiting for his orders.
"Lu Bu broke through Xuanyuan Pass, do you know it?" Looking around at the people in the hall, Liu Wei asked them, but his face was really not good-looking.
"I'll just know!" Everyone hugged their fists one after another, and after answering, Xu Shu said to Liu Wei: "Right now, in Luoyang City, I'm afraid that this matter has long been known to women and children!" β
Tie Qing's face was blue, Liu Wei's eyes fell on Xu Shu's face, and he said with a heavy dissatisfaction in his tone: "This king arranged for the two armies to advance together, precisely with the intention of asking Lu Bu and others to seal the retreat outside the pass, and when the Wenchang army arrived, they would attack the Qingzhou army from behind, and the Qingzhou army would have no way to advance or retreat, and it would definitely be annihilated for our army!" But as soon as Lu Bu arrived outside the Xuanyuan Pass, he broke the pass, and the Qingzhou army retreated into the mountains, how could our army clean them up? β
"Your Highness!" Before Liu Bian's words fell, Jia Xu stood up, strode to the middle of the front hall, bowed to Liu Bian with his fists in his fists and said, "Lu Bu broke through Xuanyuan Pass, it was the idea of his subordinates!" β
Jia Xu's words not only surprised Liu Wei, but also made the other people sitting in the hall all stunned.
Earlier, Jia Xu had instigated LΓΌ Bu to send troops to attack Xudu, causing the Qin army to lose Shouchun and Xia Cai, and now he actually instigated LΓΌ Bu to change from a feint attack to the main attack, and broke the Xuanyuan Pass in one fell swoop, which really makes people unable to see what he wants to do.
Staring at Jia Xu, Liu Wei frowned slightly, and asked him, "Why did Wen He offer a plan to Lu Bu to break through Xuanyuan Pass?" β
"His Royal Highness only wants to exterminate the Qingzhou Army, but he has not seen what the extermination of the Qingzhou Army will bring to our army!" Holding his fists and bowing down, Jia Xu said to Liu Wei with a very calm expression: "Wei Wenchang led the army to kill the Qingzhou army from behind, and Lu Bu led the army to attack Xuanyuan Pass, and the Qingzhou army will definitely be annihilated, it is really true!" β
Jia Xu first agreed with Liu Bian's considerations, but made Liu Biao feel that what he was going to say later was the key.
Sure enough, after expressing his agreement with Liu Wei's opinion, Jia Xu continued: "As the saying goes, the mourning army will win, although the combat strength of the Qingzhou army is not as good as our army, our army is advancing in two ways, and the number of people is not less than them, but in the face of death, the Qingzhou army will definitely fight back." If this continues, even if our army finally exterminates the Qingzhou army, there will be a lot of casualties! β
After listening to what Jia Xu said, the look on Liu Wei's face looked a little better, and he involuntarily began to ponder the correctness and error of Jia Xu's analysis.
From Liu Wei's face, it was clear that he was no longer as angry as before, and Jia Xu continued: "Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Guandu are fighting, and the current war is still unclear. If our army suffered too many casualties in the battle with the Qingzhou army in Xuanyuan Pass, in case the Cao army wins, Luoyang will be left without troops to defend! β
Although he didn't completely agree with Jia Xu's words in his heart, Liu Wei couldn't find a reason to refute him for a while.
Just when Liu Wei was still thinking about whether what Jia Xu said was right or wrong, Chen Gong on the side pouted and smiled slightly, and said to Jia Xu: "Wenhe's words, isn't it too sensational? β
Seeing that he was about to persuade Liu Wei, Chen Gong suddenly opened his mouth on the side, which made Jia Xu very unhappy in his heart, turned to look at Chen Gong, and he asked: "Isn't there still a high opinion on the public platform?" β
"Don't dare to be a high see!" Waving his hand at Jia Xu, Chen Gong grinned, then stood up, strode to the middle of the front hall, and said to Liu Wei with his fists in his fists: "Your Majesty has something to say!" β
Chen Gong stood up, obviously to refute Jia Xu, but Liu Wei didn't stop him, but just made a gesture of invitation to him.
With Liu Wei's promise, Chen Gong stood up straight and said to Jia Xu: "Your Highness has already made arrangements earlier, asking Lu Bu and others to lead the army to feint to attack Xuanyuan Pass, not to mention that if this is the case, the defenders of Xuanyuan Pass will fight back to the death, only saying that Wen He and Lu Fengxian have an order, and they will change the feint attack to the main attack without authorization, is it appropriate?" β
What Jia Xu was most worried about was that someone reminded Liu Wei of the stubble, and Chen Gong shook it out as soon as he opened his mouth, which really made Jia Xu's heart twitch.
"A certain is also a temporary ......idea" Liu Wei was in the hall, and Jia Xu also knew that too much quibbling at this time would make Liu Wei dissatisfied with him, so he said to Chen Gong: "I have to inform Lu Bu of the enemy's strategy first!" β
"Wenhe is strategically practiced, and he is convinced!" With a slight smile, Chen Gong arched his hand to Jia Xu, but he said: "Ke Wenhe disobeyed His Highness's order, and he really didn't dare to agree!" β
After saying this to Jia Xu, Chen Gong turned around again, faced Liu Bian, and said to Liu Bian: "Your Highness, if our army is attacked from two directions, although the Qingzhou army may fight back to the death, it may also be defeated!" The battlefield is changing rapidly, and no one can fully control it! β
Liu Wei nodded, and his face became solemn again.
Chen Gong is right, the changes on the battlefield are too great, and anyone who is on the battlefield or strategizing cannot grasp every detail.
In particular, after an army is surrounded, how it will react is not something that can be determined by planning in advance.
From Liu Wei's face, Jia Xu could already see the changes in his heart, and he stood aside with a very worried expression.
"Your Highness!" Clenched his fists and bowed, and bowed deeply to Liu Bian, Chen Gong said to Liu Bian: "Whoever goes out on an expedition, it is the foundation of governing the army. Jia Xu and Lu Bu repeatedly disobeyed His Royal Highness's orders, resulting in the fall of Shouchun and Xia Cai, and now they have broken through Xuanyuan Pass without authorization, resulting in the complete ineffectiveness of the follow-up battle strategy. If you are so blind, you should be beheaded! β
When Chen Gong said that Jia Xu and Lu Bu should be beheaded, everyone in the hall, including Liu Wei, was stunned.
Looking at Chen Gong, hesitation appeared on Liu Fangcai's still solemn face, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said to Chen Gong: "What Gongtai said is not bad, but Wenhe and Fengxian have also made great contributions to Great Qin!" β
Speaking of this, Liu Wei hesitated for a moment, and said to everyone in the hall: "If the merit is over, Wen He and Feng Xian can escape the death penalty, but the living crime is inevitable!" β
When Chen Gong asked Liu Wei to behead him and Lu Bu, Jia Xu was also shocked into a cold sweat.
But after listening to Liu Bian's words, he immediately understood that Liu Bian did not intend to kill him and Lu Bu, and his heart couldn't help but feel relieved.
"Tell the King!" His eyes shifted from Chen Gong's face to Jia Xu's body, and Liu Wei said to Wang Liu and Wang Zhen behind him: "The army of Xuanyuan Pass, and Zhang Liao temporarily acting as the chief general, Lu Bu escorted to Luoyang to ask for the guilt!" As for Jia Xu, ask for the guilt with Lu Bu! β
"No!" Clenched his fists and bowed, and responded in unison, Wang Liu and Wang Zhen walked out of Liu Wei's back almost at the same time.
"Zhonglang, please!" When he arrived at Jia Xu's side, Wang Liu did not twist him, but made a gesture of invitation to him.
Knowing that he had disobeyed Liu Bian's order, Liu Bian had not killed them, and had already left a lot of affection, Jia Xu hugged his fists and bowed to Liu Bian, bowed deeply, and left the front hall under Wang Liu's view.
Wang Zhen, who walked out with Wang Liu, did not stop beside Jia Xu, but walked straight out of the front hall and gave an order to a guard outside the hall.
The guards, who had received Wang Zhen's orders, answered the call and ran towards the outside of the palace.
It's just a tea scene, and at the gate of Luoyang City, there is a team of Qin troops riding war horses, rushing out quickly, and running straight towards Xuanyuan Pass.
After seizing Xuanyuan Pass, Lu Bu, who thought he had made a great contribution, was drinking with Zhang Liao and Tai Shici in the military camp in the Guannei.
At first, he didn't believe that Lu Bu would be able to take the pass, Zhang Liao and Tai Shici both expressed doubts about him, and Tai Shici even mentioned that he wanted to put Lu Bu in the air.
Now that Shun has taken Xuanyuan Pass, Zhang Liao and Tai Shici have completely changed their attitude towards Lu Bu, and when they drink with Lu Bu, they are much more respectful than before.
