Chapter 39 Military Camp

3days ago traverse Novels 3
The elite cavalry of the Mingguang Army, with strong troops, marched swaggeringly along the flat official road.

All local states have received government orders to prepare food and grass supplies in advance, so this military situation is naturally unconfidential.

Previously, Xue Chongxun reviewed the army's dispatch of troops in Chang'an, which was also a signal of declaring war against the Khitan.

Of course, it was not only the Khitan leader Li Fuhuo who was concerned about the situation, but the local officials in Youzhou who were in power were also anxious.

The court did not expressly blame the crime, but they knew it well. The trip of the censors showed that Chang'an was suspicious of them.

Now the new chief official Du Xian has obtained the imperial sword, and he will be the right to behead him first and then report him. The chief secretary Wang Xianzhi can't eat well and sleep well, and he feels itchy every day.

Governor Zhao Qu asked Wang Xianzhi to discuss it and guessed whether Du Xian would use them to sacrifice the flag after he arrived in Youzhou.

Wang Xianzhi’s view: The court has dispatched troops from Guanzhong from afar to deal with us first. Before Du Xian arrived, he will prepare earlier and rebel!

Zhao Qu said: The Mingguang Army is a brave and good at fighting. Now that we have to fight against this team first, we have to fight against this team. If there is any disadvantage, Du Xian uses military power to transfer the troops and horses of Hedong and Andong towns to siege. We have no chance of winning. What's the point of rebellion?

The Xue family is not upright, so we will take the lead and contact loyal ministers and generals from other places. The victory or defeat is still unpredictable, and it is a hundred times better than waiting for death.

Wang Xianzhi planned to take the banner of Emperor Tianqi (Li Chengning) to restore the rebellion of Li Tang. If General Zhao could defeat Du Xian's vanguard, there would be something big to do.

Zhao Qu shook his head and said: If you want to have a chance of winning, at least you must be able to win over the Lu family and other gentry, otherwise it will be difficult to last long.I think Mr. Lu is not very sincere to us, and these scholars are also the ones who seek to protect themselves first, so they are afraid they are unwilling to participate in the civil war.

Wang Xian’s Way: Duke Lu is very wise, how can he not understand the reason why the Xue family steals the country?As long as General Zhao sends troops to win, I will convince Mr. Lu.As long as Lu promises to join us, it will be much easier to join forces with other places to start a business together.

Zhao Qu still disagreed, believing that Youzhou has no good generals and strong soldiers and cannot defeat the troops in the west.

The two of them were never together. Zhao Qu was unwilling to rebel. In fact, he had a thought: his family was in Chang'an, and as long as he rebelled, he would become a lonely man, no matter how successful or defeated, and he felt that this road was not good at all.

Wang Xianzhi was forced to take risks. He made a fortune by taking power in Youzhou. By exploiting the wealth of the Hu people in the inner world, he could not spend all his money from rare treasures to money, grain and land in his lifetime.

When the imperial court sent officials from the border to find out the situation, he would have to die even if he didn't die, and the money he made in the past was in vain.

The internal military and political yamen of Youzhou have their own thoughts and no clarification, let alone the local clan Lu family.

The children of the gentry described themselves as pillars of the country and moral models, but it would be absolutely impossible to sacrifice the interests of the family for the sake of the court's struggle for power and profit.

Perhaps some gentry can retain some integrity when encountering foreign invasions, but the Xue Chongxun regime established the Han Dynasty, and they were even more unwilling to take risks to do anything unless the situation is very clear and they can take advantage of the situation to gain a reputation.

The state yamen often sent people to Lu's mansion to contact Mr. Lu, but Mr. Lu pretended to be aloof and used the excuse of being vulgar and being vulgar with the Hu people in Youzhou, and was unwilling to have too much contact with him.

But last year, a peasant uprising occurred in Youzhou. At that time, Duke Lu was very active and stood aside with the government, and distributed grain and people. Finally, he suppressed the gang of rioters completely before he stopped.

So things went by. By June, the Mingguang army of all the cavalry had entered the territory of Youzhou, and its speed was beyond the expectations of the local officials.

It's too late to do anything more.

Wang Xianzhi and others had to bite the bullet and prepare to deal with it, and passively waited for the verdict of fate.

But Du Xian did not contact the local officials, but personally led a team of light cavalry and raised the flag to the military camp of the Youzhou Governor's Office.There are more than 3,000 soldiers from Youzhou stationed inside, and the military power is under the jurisdiction of the Governor Zhao Qu.

Du Xian and his unit suddenly appeared at the gate of the barracks. The officers and soldiers guarding the barracks were required to print official documents according to military rules. Du Xian showed the king's order and the seal, and said: This official was ordered to control the three towns of Hedong, Youzhou and Andong. All the troops in the three towns should be dispatched by us. If anyone dares to stop or disobey, he will be regarded as a rebellion!

After saying that, he kicked open the camp gate and led a team of soldiers and broke in.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, the generals of the Youzhou governor rushed to the city to report the news.

At this time, the soldiers on the school ground gathered together, with more than 3,000 soldiers here, and now Du Xian's light cavalry has arrived, and the soldiers of his generals and soldiers couldn't help but feel worried. After all, when he was in Chang'an, he heard the wind that Youzhou was not very safe.

Du Xian disagreed and climbed up a mound like a big shot, took off the sword at his waist and said: The sword given to Du by the emperor himself, the brothers will see it.

When the soldiers heard Du Xian's comments, they all came up to see and talk.

Are you willing to follow Your Majesty’s wishes to attack the Khitan?Du Xian asked again.

Everyone shouted: The imperial grain we eat, Xue Lang beats wherever we say.What is the old man in the Khitan? We just finished fighting the Turks last year and have been idle for several months...

Du Xian suddenly shouted: What kind of military discipline is like this? It really insults the power of our Great Jin army!Where are the generals of each department?

Only then did the generals and schools hurriedly scold and shout, asking people to stand in line and stop making noise.

A general came forward and said: The last general didn't know that the chief general was coming, and he had not received the order from the governor, so he dared not act rashly.Please wait for the chief executive, and the governor will come to apologize immediately.
