Han Dao world

"Mr. Duan killed the West back then. If the imperial court abandoned Liangzhou and Liangzhou became a place for the Qiang people to herd horses, Duan's ancestral tombs would not be spared. Will Jia Jun's ancestors' more than a hundred tombs also be affected?"

Jia Xu was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously stopped in her tracks. "Your Majesty intends to abandon Liang?"

Liu Xie shook his head. "If I want to abandon Liang, why should I come to see Jia Jun? But the big man is in peril, and it's hard to say how many years he can last. Once the big man is exhausted and Shandong has a new emperor, can Jia Jun predict whether he will abandon Liang?"

Jia Xu's expression changed again.

Unlike Duan Yan and others, he has a deep understanding of the court's proposal to abandon Liang.

Since Guangwu in this dynasty, there have been frequent discussions about abandoning Liang, and five times it has been promoted to the court. There are countless private discussions, and most of the main proponents are from the Kanto.

The Guandong people bullied the Liangzhou people, forced the Liangzhou Han and Qiang to rebel, and then regarded Liangzhou as a burden, and they wanted to abandon it quickly.If it weren't for the struggle of Ma Yuan, Yu Xu and others, and the Liangzhou soldiers represented by Liangzhou Sanming were fighting on the front line to quell the Qiang chaos and maintain the stability of Liangzhou, Liangzhou would have long been reduced to a land of alienation.

If the great Han dies, Yuan Shao is most likely to become emperor in Kanto.

Yuan Shao is a representative of the Kwantung scholar-officials. He has always despised Liangzhou people, and abandoning Liangzhou is almost an inevitable choice.

Once the court abandons Liangzhou, it will not only be a matter of ruined ancestral tombs, but all Liangzhou people—including him, Jia Xu—will become barbarians. Don’t even think about gaining a foothold in the new dynasty. Wang Yun killed all Liangzhou people An unfulfilled wish may become a reality.

out on a limb.

Jia Xu couldn't help but let out a sigh.

The world is so big that there is no place for me, Jia Xu, to stand up.

Jia Xu turned her head slightly, looking at Liu Xie's face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, her cheeks twitched, feeling an inexplicable sense of strangeness.

The eyebrows and eyes of the emperor in front of him are the same as before, but the expression in his eyes is quite different.

If the emperor in the past was a young dragon struggling to survive, noble and weak, the emperor in front of him is a dragon that has given birth to minions. His eyes are full of majesty overlooking the world and wisdom that sees through everything, making people afraid to look directly at them.

"Your Majesty..." Jia Xu quickly made a decision. "I think that if Liangzhou is not abandoned, the great man will not perish."

Chapter 34 Blood Alliance

Liu Xie raised his eyebrows lightly.

He understood what Jia Xu meant, it was a deal.

He wants the big man to be prosperous, and he will no longer be manipulated by others.

Jia Xu wants Liangzhou to rise and no longer become a burden that the court can abandon at any time.

"With Jia Jun's words, the world will be at peace." Liu Xie held Jia Xu's elbow with a slight force, and shook it solemnly.

Jia Xu took a step back, arched his hands above his head, and bowed to Liu Xie. "Your Majesty, I would like to do my best for your Majesty and Liangzhou."

Yang Biao's father and son looked at each other, wondering what Liu Xie said to Jia Xu, which made Jia Xu so excited and pledged allegiance on the spot.

Yang Biao knew exactly what kind of person Jia Xu was.

Could it be because of Liangzhou?

-

Liu Xie followed Duan Yao and Jia Xu into the camp.Go up to the general's platform first, and inspect the soldiers under Duan Yan's command.

Although Duan Yan is suspicious, his level of military training is much stronger than Yang Ding and Yang Fengqiang. Nearly ten thousand soldiers under his command are well-dressed and well-trained.

Seeing all this, Liu Xie secretly rejoiced.

If Duan Yan also turned against him, joined forces with Zhang Ji, and attacked from east to west, the strength of Yang Feng and others would not be enough.

Historically, Yang Feng and the other three had attacked Duan Yao's camp for more than ten days, but in the end they didn't take advantage of anything, and they got frustrated.

Fortunately, Duan Yan was very restrained, not only did not fight back, but continued to supply the court with food.When Li Jue and Guo Si chased and killed the court and rubbed the court's dignity on the ground, Duan Yan did not take advantage of the fire to loot.

Even after defeating Li Jue, Duan Yan was the main force doing his part.

Therefore, Zhong Ji, Zuo Ling and others are typical examples of not doing enough to succeed but more than failing.They were full of poems and books, but they didn't use them for the right thing. They were all used for internal strife, and they almost sent the big man back to the West ahead of schedule.

After watching the exercise, on the general platform, Liu Xie looked at the east with a solemn expression.

"Zhang Ji turned against him."

Duan Yan was not surprised at all, and nodded calmly. "I have received news from Zhang Ji that he made an alliance with me, but I refused."

Jia Xu also said indifferently: "Your Majesty, Zhang Ji is not in trouble."

Yang Biao breathed a sigh of relief, and raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his forehead. "General, the weather is hot, can you talk in the tent? Your majesty is just recovering, so it's not advisable to be tired."

Duan Yan woke up like a dream, and hurriedly asked Liu Xie to step down and speak in the tent.

Liu Xie and Duan Yan walked side by side, talking while walking. "Taiwei Duan has experienced hundreds of battles back then, and he used soldiers like a god. Did he leave documents such as the art of war and war discipline?"

Duan Yan smiled and shook his head. "There is no time to fight, and then I was busy with government affairs and didn't care about it. Now things have passed, documents have been lost, and many people who dealt with it have died, so I can't write even if I want to."

"That's a pity." Liu Xie regretted it infinitely. "Such an astonishing feat, but not being able to leave a detailed record, it is a loss. The general may wish to pay attention to some, try to restore it, and add glory to the Taiwei's biography in the future."

"Wei." Duan Yao agreed with a bright face.

Liu Xie also knew that it was unrealistic to expect Duan Yan to do this.These warriors don't have such self-awareness at all, they even look down on themselves from the bottom of their hearts, and they don't feel that there is any significance in recording the process of marching and fighting.In their view, what really stands out is learning, and it is the Confucian classics.

Therefore, what Huangfu Gui cherishes most is not military achievements, but opening a museum to teach apprentices and writing five volumes of essays.

What Zhang Huan is most proud of is not his military achievements, but his annotations of more than [-] words in "Shangshu".

Duan Jiong was a pure military commander, he had no interest in learning, and he later attached himself to eunuchs, so he had the worst reputation.

Although Duan Yan was proud of the emperor's mention of Duan Jiong, he didn't think that Duan Jiong could stand shoulder to shoulder with Huangfu Gui and Zhang Huan. Can books of war and war records be compared with "Poems" and "Books"?

"Jia Jun, although you are not the nephew of Taiwei Duan, you must be familiar with Taiwei Duan's deeds, right?"

Jia Xu nodded and said, "As Your Majesty said, I know the story of the Taiwei."

"Then wrong Jia Jun as a servant, and explain the story of the Taiwei to me at any time, so as to increase my knowledge." Liu Xie turned to look at Yang Biao. "Does the captain think it's okay?"

Yang Biao stroked his beard with a smile and said, "Jia Jun is knowledgeable and has experienced wars for a long time. It is very suitable for His Majesty to participate in the military election."

Yang Xiu felt sour in his heart.The emperor felt that Jia Xu had been wronged when the waiter compared two thousand stones, and the gap was too great.

Jia Xu looked calm and kept silent.

Liu Xie saw it, and said to Duan Yao: "Can the general give up love?"

The emperor begged for Jia Xu, and explained Duan Jiong's wars for him, so there is no reason for Duan Yan to refuse.To be honest, he wanted to drive Jia Xu away a long time ago, but he couldn't do it because of the fellowship.

"Your Majesty, Wen He is a rare hero in Liangzhou, and only Your Majesty can use him."

Liu Xie smiled slightly. "Jia Jun, are you willing to give in?"

Jia Xu left the table and paid homage. "Thank you Your Majesty for not giving up, I am flattered."

Liu Xie leaned over and stretched out his hand to help. "Seeing the general's martial arts and the wisdom of Wenhe, I can also sleep peacefully. Come, all gentlemen, raise your glasses and let us all have a great understanding."

"Long live!" Duan Yan was the first to raise his glass and shouted.

"Long live!" Zhang Zhongwen and Wu raised their glasses together, shouting long live.

At this time, Shi A, the servant, walked quickly into the tent, walked to Liu Xie, and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, the Wei Wei sent a message. Li Jue and Guo Si have arrived. The forward is less than [-] miles away from the imperial camp. There are many soldiers. innumerable."

Liu Xie's heart tightened, and he subconsciously glanced at Yang Biao, and then settled down.

"Send someone back to inquire." Liu Xie paused, and then said: "Let Xu Huang go."

"Wei." Shi A responded, turned around and left.

Liu Xie drank the wine in his cup and said in a loud voice: "The world in Huayin is dangerous, but climbers know that the beautiful scenery is on the dangerous peak, and those who are not brave can't see it. Just like the situation in this world, it is easy to go with the current, but difficult to sail against the current. Xiang If Emperor Gao did not come out of Hanzhong, how could there be a 400-year-old Han Dynasty? To make Emperor Guangwu cowardly fight against Kunyang, how can there be a 200-year civilization in Dongdu? Big man."

He stood up, looked around, slowly pulled out the long knife at his waist, wiped it lightly on his palm, and blood gushed out.

He straightened his arms, spread his five fingers, and dripped blood into the Jiuzun. "Today, I swear to Huashan and Dahe, and I will make an alliance with the lords with blood. If the lords will not fail me, I will certainly not fail the lords."

Liu Xie made a look, and Yang Xiu, who was on the side, understood and quickly filled him with blood-stained wine.

Liu Xie raised his glass and said loudly, "Please help me, Zhuqing."

Everyone was startled by his actions and was at a loss for a moment.

Jia Xu poked Duan Yao quietly and winked.

Duan Yao understood, immediately got up and clasped his fists, and said loudly: "General Ning Ji, Chen Yao, I am willing to help Your Majesty, even if I die."

On the other side, Yang Biao also reacted and got up with a tangled expression. "Taiwei, Chen Biao, I would like to help His Majesty to rebuild a great man, and I will never hesitate to die."

Everyone stood up one after another as if waking up from a dream, and said in unison: "The ministers are willing to help His Majesty to rebuild a great man, and they will die."

"Thank you, gentlemen." Liu Xie said loudly, "Dezu, serve wine for you gentlemen."

"Wei!" Yang Xiu responded, trotting around, filling up the wine for everyone.

Everyone raised their glasses and looked at Liu Xie enthusiastically.

"Please!" Liu Xie drank it all in one gulp.

Everyone also drank the wine in their glasses and shouted in unison.

"Long live! Long live! Long live!"

Chapter 35 Intrigue

A thousand cups of wine are less than a confidant.

After more than half a month, Liu Xie drank alcohol for the first time, and drank a little too much.

After confirming Duan Yan's refusal, he successfully recruited Jia Xu. Excited, he forgot that this body was only 15 years old. He thought it was the alcohol-tested social animal in his previous life who accidentally drank too much.

Duan Yao saw it and was very happy.

Your Majesty doesn't treat me as an outsider, otherwise how could I get drunk in my camp.

Sending Liu Xie into the prepared luxury tent, Duan Yan was still not satisfied, and dragged Yang Biao to talk for a while before humming a ditty and staggering away.

Yang Biao entered the tent, looking at Liu Xie, who was blushing and sleeping deeply, felt distressed and had a headache.

If the last contest at Yang Feng Daying was just an undercurrent, this time the conflict in front of Duan Yan and Jia Xu is a vortex that surfaced.The emperor used Duan Jiong as an excuse to stir up the strong dissatisfaction of the Xiliang people towards the Kanto people, and successfully recruited Jia Xu under his command. Is it an expedient measure or a long-planned counterattack?

Yang Biao couldn't see clearly, so he was worried.

"Father." Yang Xiu walked into the big tent and saw Yang Biao sitting here with a dignified expression. He thought he was worried about the emperor, so he quickly said: "Your Majesty is just drunk, there is nothing serious, just take a rest."

Yang Biao glanced at Yang Xiu, winked, got up and left the big tent.

Yang Xiu was puzzled, but still followed.The two came to the side, Yang Biao put his hands behind his back, looked at the Huashan Mountain in the distance, and thought for a long time.

"Dezu, tell me...is your majesty intoxicated or intoxicated?"

Yang Xiu looked at Yang Biao suspiciously.

What is intoxicated, intoxicated?

Seeing this, Yang Biao had no choice but to clarify further. "He passed away drunk in Duan Yan's camp, and what he said to Duan Yan and Jia Xu before, is it a stopgap measure, or a heartfelt statement?"

Yang Xiu was stunned, thought for a while, and said: "It should be from the bottom of my heart. Your Majesty is not good at making false statements when dealing with people. Besides, Jia Xu is very witty. It is not easy to deceive him, and it can only be counterproductive."

"So, His Majesty really intends to use the Xiliang people to suppress the Kanto people?"

Yang Xiu frowned slightly. "Father, strictly speaking, we are not from Kanto either."

Yang Biao froze for a moment, then became angry from embarrassment, raising his hand was a slap in the face. "Confused, do I mean Kanto people, Kansai people? I'm talking about Confucianism and kingly way. I, Hongnong Yang, passed on the "Shangshu" to my family. I learned Confucianism and sought kingly way. People from Xiliang?"

Yang Xiu was caught off guard and was stunned by the beating. He immediately exploded and was about to fight back. Then he realized that the furious person in front of him was his father. ...to save life and death, it is urgent to follow the right."

"If it's just a matter of haste, it's fine." Seeing Yang Xiu's grievances, Yang Biao also regretted it, consciously losing his composure and not being a minister. "I'm afraid that the Son of Heaven did not act in a hurry, but did it on purpose. Do you remember what the Son of Heaven said outside the camp gate? He blamed Confucianism for the current situation of the big man. This...how ridiculous."

As soon as he turned his head, his expression became sharp again. "Who is bewitching His Majesty?"

Yang Xiu was startled, and instinctively took a step back. "Father, why did you say that?"

"Your Majesty has been studying since childhood, and the lecturers are all great Confucianists, who regard Confucianism as the orthodox. How could there be such a deviant act?"

Yang Xiu rolled his eyes, but couldn't figure it out.

The father and son were relatively silent.

-

Duan Yan returned to his army, sat down and drank two glasses of water, and a clerk brought the documents he had just received.

Duan Yan took it and glanced at it, and was stunned for a moment, the water he just drank in his mouth almost spewed out.

"Li Jue and Guo Si are here so soon?"

The scribe nodded. "I have received the news before, but the general is having a banquet with His Majesty, and he never dared to disturb him."
