Wang Meng walked to the map and gestured.
"If Zhu Jun is defeated, he should retreat to Changsha or Xu County if it is nearby. However, the Yellow Turbans are also causing serious trouble in Runan, south of Xu County, and Chen State, southeast of Xu County. I think it is more likely that he will retreat to Changsha."
Wang Yao: "In this case, let's prepare to move closer to Changsha. If Zhu Jun wins the first battle, we will take advantage of the situation to attack Bo Cai and expand the results. If Zhu Jun loses the first battle, we can also provide support."
"Okay, I'll call them over to discuss matters."
The action-oriented Wang Meng immediately went out to beat the drum and summoned everyone to the central army tent.
"Greetings, young master."
"No need to be polite, everyone." Wang Yao glanced at them and said, "Zhu Jun, the right general of the imperial court, has arrived in Yingchuan and is about to launch an offensive against Bo Cai, who is entrenched in Yanling. We have rested for a few days and it is time to set off."
Guan Yu stroked his beard and was about to stand up and ask for a fight, but Le Jin stepped out before him:
"Young master, last time it was Yunchang who was the vanguard, this time I will ask for a fight first."
Guan Yu said without hesitation, "Wen Qian, in this battle we may have to face the main force of the Yellow Turbans, which is not comparable to the scattered soldiers before. It is better to let Guan take the lead, so as not to dampen the morale of the righteous army."
"You mean I can't do it!" Le Jin was unhappy. You, the later Guan Yu, dared to look down on him.
"You two, how about I be the vanguard." Wen Ji was not to be outdone.
Seeing that the three were about to quarrel, Wang Yao slapped the table and the scene became quiet:
"Being proactive is a good thing. There are still many battles to come. It's just a vanguard position. Since Wen Qian (Le Jin) asked for the battle first, you will lead our troops as the vanguard, arrive at Changsha in advance, set up camp, and strengthen the city defense."
"Ah? Stationed in Changsha?" Le Jin was a little puzzled: "Shouldn't we go to Yanling to reinforce Zhu Jun?"
Wang Meng explained: "Zhu Jun is a bit too aggressive and may not be able to win. We will station in Changsha, close to Yanling, and we can provide timely reinforcements or support according to the situation on the battlefield."
"There is no time to lose, Wen Qian, you go and prepare to leave."
"Yes."
Le Jin took the order and left.
"Ren Zai (Deng Dang), the task of logistics and baggage for our army is now handed over to you. Please be careful."
"Yes."
"Yun Chang, Zi He (Wen Ji), lead the troops to guard the left and right sides of the central army. Get ready and set off tomorrow morning."
"Yes."
Luoyang City
After traveling for several days, Wang Shi finally arrived at the destination with Bu Ji's head and two followers.
The three were stopped at the city gate. It was not easy to enter the city with a head.
The guards at the gate of Luoyang City were naturally sharp-eyed.
The leader asked: "Three of you, routine inquiry, why are you entering the capital?"
Wang Shi replied: "We are the Jinyang righteous army. When we went south to reinforce, we defeated the Yellow Turban leader Bu Ji in Guancheng and killed thousands of enemies. This is the head of the thief., and the joint document of Guancheng Ling·Xin Pi. "
The garrison checked the document and confirmed that it was correct, then let him go, and reported it to his superiors.
After entering the city, in addition to reporting his achievements, he had to visit various parties.
Originally, Wang Shi planned to visit Zhong Changshi·Zhang Rang. Although eunuchs have a bad reputation, they really do things for money.
At this time, the follower Yu Kui suggested: "Sir, the young master has already made arrangements in Luoyang. Why don't we go to our own people first and learn more about the situation."
"Well, lead the way."
As Wang Yao's confidant, Wang Shi also knew a thing or two about the Obsidian Envoy.
Sun and Moon Inn
After Yu Kui came in, he found the shopkeeper and showed him the token.
The shopkeeper understood, took the token, and said: "Please follow me. ”
When they arrived at a dark room, the shopkeeper knocked on the door and said, "Boss, a distinguished guest has arrived."
Fang Qing, the person in charge of Luoyang, who was doing the accounts, raised his head, put away the account book, stood up and opened the door.
The shopkeeper handed the token to Fang Qing, whispered a few words in his ear, and left.
Wang Shi bowed and said, "I am Wang Shi, with the courtesy name Xianyun, and I am honored to meet you, sir."
Fang Qing hurriedly returned the greeting, "Sir, I don't dare to be the person in charge of the Black Obsidian Envoy in Luoyang. Let's come in and talk."
Wang Shi and Fang Qing walked into the dark room, while the entourage was on guard outside.
Wang Shi briefly explained his purpose. After listening, Fang Qing said, "The young master defeated the Yellow Turbans, beheaded the leader, and also had the document of the Xin County Magistrate. There is no dispute about the meritorious service. The key now is to ask the court for something. ”
Wang Shi had already made plans on the way here for the position he was looking for: “At present, we are in the midst of a war, so I still want a military officer. When the main force of the Yellow Turbans is pacified, I will be transferred to a local official.”
“Sure. Since the Yellow Turban Uprising, the local area has finally received a victory report. His Majesty will be very pleased. We only need to bribe the eunuchs so that they will not interfere. The young master is from a noble family and has made great contributions. The officials of the court will not hinder us. As for the recently rising relative He Jin, he does not have enough foundation and will not make many enemies at present. He will certainly not hinder us.
I have some friendship with Zhang Rang. You can leave the eunuchs’ communication to me. Mr. Yun, please visit the houses of the officials of the noble families more often, and also visit the general’s house. I have prepared all the money and gifts you need. You can ask the shopkeeper for them.”
Wang Shi bowed and thanked him: “Thank you, sir. ”
“We are all doing things for the young master, no need to thank us.”
After some preparation, the two went their separate ways.
Wang Shi visited the captain Yuan Wei, the prime minister Yang Ci, and the general He Jin successively, and simply exchanged gifts and showed his face.
Although Yuan Wei and Yang Ci met with Wang Shi, they just said a few words casually, mainly to inquire about the situation at the front line. Wang Shi also told them truthfully that the front line was not very optimistic, at least for now.
These two old foxes have seen many outstanding people from the aristocracy. If it was Wang Yao who came, considering that he was the son of Wang Qi,, Xun Shuang's student and son-in-law, he could still be more enthusiastic and talk a few more words, but Wang Shi only met him because he came from the front and could provide some intelligence, which would be beneficial to the subsequent debate in the court. Otherwise, do you think that anyone can meet the Taiwei and Situ?
However, when he arrived at the General's Mansion, He Jin, as a newcomer in the political arena, was much more enthusiastic.
Hearing that the righteous army had won a victory on the front line and sent people to send war reports to the capital, and now the messenger came to visit with gifts, He Jin asked the servants to invite him in and personally went to the courtyard to greet him.
After all, he had been in the court for a few years, so He Jin still had basic judgment.
At this stage, the righteous army that could lead the righteous army to defeat the Yellow Turban bandits and had the ability to send people to the capital to ask for rewards would never be composed of ordinary powerful people. There must be a considerable force behind them that could be won over.
Wang Shi looked at He Jin who was walking towards him and bowed: "Wang Shi of Taiyuan, my name is Xianyun, I meet the general."
"Hahaha, Xianyun, no need to be polite, you are a hero from the front line, please come in, let's chat in the hall, butler, prepare the banquet and dance, the general will entertain Xianyun later."
Butler took the order: "Yes."
