Zheng Lu is also a Khitan, it is said that there is a store in Youzhou, this time he came with the army, just to find some cheap freight back to Youzhou, he has looked for Dong Xian many times, and each time he respectfully brought gifts; Dong Xian didn't hesitate, sat down in his seat and said, "Please." ”

Yeluzhen has been waiting for a long time, but he is still smiling, and when Dong Xian is satisfied with accepting the Qizijia and asking his cronies to arrange the wine and food, and there are only two people left in the whole tent, Yeluzhen approached Dong Xian, who was stacking the armor, and said in a low voice: "I heard that the general plans to return south, and the villain Yeluzhen is willing to help." ”

The merchant's name was fake, Dong Xian's body was shocked, and then he looked at Ye Luzhen with a little mockery and said, "Are you cheating on me?"

Ye Luzhen deeply felt Dong Xian's implied hostility, and said with a sigh of relief: "I brought a letter from Yang Shuai. Yang Shuai said that the general was both wise and brave, and he was desperate at the beginning, and hoped that the general would seize this opportunity to return; ”

Dong Xian was originally the commander of the army in Henan Province, and Zhang Xi, the assassin of Chengzhou, led the army to fight the Yellow River, nine battles and nine victories, but was cut off from the grain route by the Jin general Li Xuan, and the supply of the army was unsustainable. Liu Yu accepted Dong Xian's surrender and let Zhang Xian retreat to Luoyang, but later Song Jin negotiated peace, and Dong Xian's family was taken away by Zhang Xian first, and he still stayed in the south.

This is Dong Xian's secret, Dong Xian grabbed Ye Luzhen's shoulder with his hand, and said in a low voice: "How do you know?"

Ye Luzhen felt Dong Xian's long and powerful fingers, and his heart was secretly frightened; no wonder Yang Zhi valued this person so much, this Dong Xian was indeed a fierce general; Ye Luzhen said calmly: "Yang Shuai is coming with a division, how can the Jin army be an opponent? If you have the heart to return, it is a good time to make meritorious contributions." Yang Shuai plans to hand over Yuzhou to you. ”

Ye Lu Zhen and Kou Yi met, and listened to Yang Zhi's analysis of Dong Xian, Dong Xian is now valued by Liu Yu, and the arrangement of the family may be a kind of self-protection idea; if Dong Xian wants to return sincerely and control Zhang Xi's army, the appropriate price should also be made, Yang Zhi asked Ye Lu Zhen to bring a letter, promising Dong Xian to be the governor of Yuzhou, and Zhang Xi to be the governor of Mengzhou. Dong Xian's cronies brought in with a few soldiers to bring in wine and food, Dong Xian let go, sat down with Ye Luzhen, and asked everyone to retreat.

Ye Luzhen simply handed over Yang Zhi's letter to Dong Xian, Ye Luzhen understood that everything he said was false, and the conditions in Yang Zhi's letter were true; Ye Luzhen himself was born as a scout in the army, and later he was responsible for meticulous work, and what he was best at was to observe the other party's expression, from Dong Xian's soothing brow, Ye Luzhen could see that there was a drama this time.

Dong Xian read the letter, put it away seriously, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Yang Shuai to value the subordinate so much, you are really capable, you are in and out of the barracks in such a big way, I guess I am not the only one this time." ”

Ye Luzhen smiled bitterly: "I have to take some risks, fortunately, I am a Khitan, I grew up in Youzhou, and there are all kinds of relationships, this time Yang Shuai arranged a lot of people, and I am just one of them, specifically responsible for contacting the general." After Zhai Xing retreated to Yiyang, Zhang Xi retreated to Changshui County, and Yang Shuai hoped that Zhang Xi's army would obey the command. ”

Ye Luzhen's wry smile is pretended, Yang Zhi has no contact with Dong Xian, he does not believe Dong Xian's words and deeds, and when he offers a price, he also needs Dong Xian's name; as long as Dong Xian writes to Zhang Xi, this matter is equivalent to having evidence, and he is not afraid that Dong Xian will go back on his word. Dong Xian said: "Yang Shuai's concern is that before attacking Luoyang, if the situation in Yuzhou and Shangzhou cannot be resolved, sooner or later it will be affected. Liu Yu has already sent Qi Zongru to discuss the road, and the goal is to make Wang Yi and the soldiers and horses supervise Zhang Xi, so I will write to Zhang Xi. ”

Ye Luzhen didn't expect this kind of harvest, Shang Yu Road is a key road from Huaixi to Guanzhong, which has always been controlled in the hands of Zhai Xing, plus Wang Yi's qualifications are old enough, he was originally a strategic envoy of Xihe Road, and he can be regarded as a general in the Western Army, and Yang Zhi is not easy to start;

Yeluzhen took Dong Xian's two letters, pretended to finish eating before leaving, his caravan was in a small village ten miles outside the barracks, the six men and handlebars in the caravan were all Yeluzhen's subordinates, all of them were strictly trained elite soldiers; when Yeluzhen came back, he saw four people loading goods, which were the cloth and quilts snatched by a team of Jin troops, and went to Yeluzhen to exchange for mare's milk wine. Yeluzhen saw Kou Yi wearing the armor of the Jin Army not far away, pretending to be relieved and going into the woods, hiding the two letters and his own information in the agreed tree hole before coming out, and walked back to his house leisurely.

Kou Yi silently took the letter, drove a hundred miles in one go, and returned to Yang Zhi's military camp, Yang Zhi read the letter and intelligence, and immediately led 3,000 cavalry to Shangzhou; Zhang Xi was a famous general who followed Yue Fei to fight, Yang Zhi believed that if he changed time and space, Zhang Xi would not surrender to the Jin army, but Wang Yi, Yang Zhi felt that it was difficult to say. In the past few years, Wang Yi has not shown mountains and waters, but Wang Yi has not been on the front line in Shangyu Road, and his final attitude is not easy to say.

Yang Zhi took two days to arrive in Shangzhou, originally wanted to use his identity to suppress Wang Yi, but he didn't expect Zhang Xi's courage to be greater than he imagined, and he had already arrested Wang Yi, the top boss of the general Dong Zhen; Yang Zhi's arrival made Zhang Xi and others very happy, Yang Zhi ordered Zhang Xi to temporarily take the post of economic envoy, rectify the army and attack Luoyang with himself, and ordered Wang Yi and Qi Zongru and others to be beheaded together.

Zhang Xi had no problem with returning to Yang Zhi, there was no general who did not like to follow the commander who won the battle, not to mention Dong Xian's letter; Zhang Xi ordered Dong Zhen, Chen Jun, Xie Gao, and Liang Jin to have 20,000 people, and according to Yang Zhi's requirements, they were stationed in Chuanbanshan, and they were forced to Luoyang along the Luoning and Changshui lines.

In Yingchang Mansion, King Kang Zhao Gou and Hu Tang Lao were at a stalemate, Zhao Gou insisted on Zhai Xing as the general to command 20,000 people to fight with Yang Zhi, but Hu Tang Lao mercilessly refused: "King Kang, Zhai Xing's father and son are both fierce generals, but they take Yiyang too seriously, so they rushed to break through from Luoyang this time, at least they should burn the grain and grass; I now suspect that they have a deal with the Jin Army. ”
