After settling Xu's father and son, Lord Xinling summoned Zhang Zhen and Mr. Zhongyue to the hall to learn about the situation in Daliang City and discuss further actions.
Not many people were summoned, they only picked a small lamp on a few cases, and a few people sat around the cases. After discussing the etiquette with Mr. Cao, Mr. Zhongyue initiated the topic: "I hope you will only talk about family affairs."
Mr. Cao didn't just pick out the key points to talk about in the car, but recalled it carefully and started from the beginning: "In honor of Mr. Jin's life, I went to Daliang on a starry night."
Zhong Yue interrupted: "Mr. Jin, why do you want to go to Liangzhong?"
Mr. Cao said: "First of all, although your Majesty has been through many dangers since you left the city, you are still fine, but you only have a little food. Your chariots and horses are stored in the fields, so you have no worries. Your Majesty has a hundred thousand people in your hands, and you are surrounded by them. There were five thousand soldiers in total, among whom were a thousand warriors. We found more than two thousand warriors scattered in the confinement. I would like to have two or three hundred gentlemen to help me and lead my troops."
Zhong Yue said: "What you said is very appropriate. I am willing to follow it."
Mr. Cao said: "I chose a dark place with few people, climbed the city into the beam..."
Mr. Zhongyue interrupted again: "Sir, how would you like to see the sentries patrolling the city?"
Mr. Cao said: "There are many patrols on the city. I often encounter patrols when I go to the city."
Mr. Zhongyue nodded and indicated to continue. Mr. Cao said: "Daliang City has been banned. Chen Yin sneaked into the house..."
Mr. Zhongyue asked again: "How is the defense in the mansion?"
Mr. Cao said: "I walked around the east city, which is secluded and close to the mansion. Not long after I went down to the city, I arrived in front of the mansion. I knocked on it with a secret note, so I was not alarmed."
Mr. Zhongyue still nodded, indicating to continue. Mr. Cao said: "It was midnight, and the elder of the family was already asleep. He came out of his clothes and welcomed him into the dormitory, ready to ask more questions. I told him what Mr. Jin said. The elder of the family heard that the court had proposed that Daliang Lieutenant should leave the city. I'm going back to you. Your Majesty is still in the army. Have you failed to restrain Daliang Lieutenant? I said that Daliang Lieutenant has arrived at the camp, but on the way he saw that Qifeng was trapped. His heart palpitated and he couldn't control himself. As for returning to you, Then I haven’t heard of it.”
Lord Xinling glanced at Zhang Noi, who immediately said: "Weicheng of Daliang came with a talisman and said that he would take you back and join the people of Qin. You can't bear the tens of thousands of Wei people to enter Qin. Also, when Daliang Lieutenant was in trouble, he selected the best soldiers and sent them to the old and weak to supervise the troops and take the risk personally."
Mr. Cao saluted and said: "This is not what I know." - The old man of the family, since there are changes, he has to make other plans. The required grain can be obtained from Xinling, and there is no surplus grain in the mansion, so he will feed the garden. It's all right. The minister said that the rice in the field has been planted. The family is old, but it takes a lot of thought to send three hundred people out of the city. To face the enemy in battle, it is impossible to be both wise and brave, and it is not possible for those who are bold and careful. And these people are all I have a duty. In case of war, how can I order three hundred strong troops to leave the city? The minister said that after hearing the emperor's discussion, he would like to send an envoy to South Korea to invite troops, and they should follow him out of the city. The elder of the family ordered the minister to rest and make arrangements himself. The next day, the emissary to Korea was found, and the senior official wanted to be Jia. The senior official went to the palace and was willing to help the emperor. His hometown sent Duke Xue and others to discuss with the senior officials. Unexpectedly, the senior officials refused in many ways and refused to comply. Xue Gong and others After returning home, I spoke to my elders and learned that after the doctor left the house, he went to the Prime Minister Wei's house to talk. The matter of Jian's resignation may have something to do with Prime Minister Wei. The situation is urgent and it is too late to have him. The doctor said that he would resign to Prime Minister Wei in Daliang. Outside the door, go out the west gate..."
Mr. Zhongyue interrupted again: "What did the doctor say?"
Mr. Cao thought for a while and said: "Xue Gongdao is what the doctor said. But if there is a mission, it is normal for Dao to speak in Daliangmen."
Mr. Zhongyue asked: "What did the doctor say?"
Mr. Cao said: "But I heard about Mr. Xue, but I actually don't know."
Mr. Zhongyue signaled that he had finished asking, and Mr. Cao continued: "I heard that the doctor gave his speech at Daliang Gate and went out of the west gate. The ministers and others then planned to take advantage of the opening of the west gate to take advantage of the opportunity for the doctor to leave the city. They rushed out of the city at night. The disciples agreed to dress up and gather at Daliang Gate the next day."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "Daliang is forbidden, how can people gather together?"
Mr. Cao said: "But those who have a family and a living room can ban it. How can they ban it if they have no home and no business?"
Mr. Zhongyue said: "A crowd of hundreds would rather not be dispersed by soldiers?"
Mr. Cao said: "Firstly, the Daliang Sect's speech is a grand ceremony, so people are allowed to attend the ceremony; secondly, the military soldiers of each sect have their own acquaintances, and if they get through it a little, everything will be fine."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "Is Ximen Guard Gai also entrusted?"
Mr. Cao said: "Of course. If there is no excuse, how can he be knocked down with one blow?"
Everyone laughed.
Mr. Cao said: "We have only been out for five miles, and what we saw on the city is not real. We will report the truth to the doctor. The doctor said, I saw Duke Xue and knew the truth. Unexpectedly, Duke Xue thought of this plan, which is also strange. Xianghe I was very happy. Later, when I arrived at Liangxi Station, the doctor said: "There are no pursuers in the city, but Yong refuses to stop them! I will invite you." The doctor said: "You can hold on to my integrity and say that you have been rescued. You should fulfill your mission and return to Daliang." We then selected five of us who were convenient and quick, and stayed at Liangxi post for transportation. When we entered the Zhongzhong camp, five of us and six cavalry returned. We have achieved what we said, but we may not be able to rely on it, as evidenced by the six cavalry chasing after us."
Zhang Zhuo said: "Who dare to stay, the five sons of the Nie family?"
Mr. Cao said: "Of course, sir, how do you know?"
Zhang He said: "How can the five sons of the Nie family be willing to talk to each other? How can they give horses to the pursuers? They will definitely steal the horses and return!"
Mr. Cao was stunned for a moment and said, "Maybe it's as Mr. Cao said."
Zhang Ye also signaled to continue. Mr. Cao said: "When we enter the military camp, we will meet Mr. Jin first..."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "No one in the camp reported it, so you can enter the camp on your own?"
Mr. Cao seemed to be stunned, and said: "There are no patrols, guards, etc.... It seems to be just one camp. The soldiers are scattered in all directions, sitting and lying according to the fire. There is a carriage with flags and drums in the camp, and under the carriage are the Third Young Master and Mr. Jin. Waiting for everyone."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "All the people and chariots drove directly into the camp without any hindrance?"
Mr. Cao said: "Of course."
Lord Xinling said: "How can military discipline be so lax!"
Mr. Cao said: "As I have said to you before, this soldier is neither a member of the army nor a member of the army. Mr. Liang Wei raised it with private money, ten coins per soldier, and got more than 2,000 yuan. All of them were in dilapidated homes and had no place to live. By."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "Ten coins per soldier? Are there any applicants?"
Lord Xinling said: "The five armies of Daliang soldiers were all recruited by Wu Zi Yuxu, and the strong ones were selected and returned to their families. Those who were despicable and did not take care of the family often fell into ruins and struggled to make a living. But this was unexpected. Of the ten camps of the five armies of Daliang, one of them has gone to guard at each post, mansion, and division. The three camps that were outside the city from Mangshi have now lost one of them. There are still six camps left in the city, and Liang Wei's Mansion wants to Then he left the city in three directions, and one army guarding the royal city was in two directions. Therefore, the Mang family stood aside and the generals watched, and they did not fight with the Liang Wei family. The Liang Wei family had no choice but to raise money, so they were able to recruit two schools of soldiers. It is strange that there are not enough officials, only weapons and weapons are with them, and no food or fodder can be found, so they are in a state of utter disarray."
Everyone sighed for a long time after hearing this, saying that Wei's heart was cruel, but Mang's hands were poisonous. Mr. Zhongyue said: "Otherwise, how could the Mang clan go to Huayang? This attack is not enough to fight, and it is chaos if it is scattered. The Mang clan is like riding a tiger. Not only is it difficult to control, but it is also afraid of backlash. Therefore, your Majesty Just call out and come back happily."
Mr. Cao said: "After we entered the camp and met with the princes, ministers, uncles, and elders, Mr. Jin said that your Majesty felt that everyone was in a dilemma and was in a desperate situation, so he ordered us to help each other and pull everyone out of danger. , went to Huayang together. Mang still said that we need to wait for the general's order before we can do it. Later, the doctor in the scriptures intervened and said that it would be difficult for the soldiers to disperse due to fatigue, and it was not something that the emperor could not do. But he had no other words. We are coming in There may be people who know each other in the camp, and they all tell each other that they believe that Lord Ling's disciples will personally come to rescue him. We also declare that Your Majesty has captured Huayang, and we have no provisions for food, fodder, and weapons, so we can rely on it. Give it a little boost. We are all old and mature, and we are respected by everyone. We all take the place of the chief of the army, even the companion chief, and the uncle. The guests are invited to assist, participate, and supervise. Banners, golden drums, cauldrons, and cauldrons are all used. No, so he went back to the confinement to ask for a loan, and formed a small group. He didn't dare to stay for a while, so he led the way, and after a day's journey, he reached Nanguan."
Mr. Cao finished talking about the process of taking over the military camp in one breath. No one interrupted, but from the words, you can imagine the dilapidated situation of this army, and even they themselves have no souls.
After a long time, Mr. Zhongyue said: "Your Majesty has invited three battalions of soldiers. One of the battalions is now in the city, and the remaining two battalions have 250 men each. They are all elites who are more than the commander of the army. If he leads them, they can form an army."
Lord Xinling said: "I will leave all the rectification work to Daliang Wei. Just as it was entrusted to the Jin officials, I will also ask you."
Zhang He said: "I see that the Jin Dynasty officials have set up camp outside Huayang City. I should pay this soldier to your Majesty. I hope your Majesty will not say goodbye."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "It is what you said. The five battalions have been set up outside the city and they must also protect you. Besides, there are two young masters of the Mang family here. Who but your Majesty can order them."
Lord Xinling said: "From what you see, how should you deal with it?"
Mr. Zhongyue said: "Young Master Liang Wei will assist Daliang Wei, and Young Master Mang will serve as your lieutenant. These thousand elites will be chosen by General Mang, and will be led by Young Master Mang. One will show Mang's loyalty, and the other will Then follow Mang's feelings. If he has something to do, ask Mang to understand it, and it will be done."
Zhang He said: "Sir's theory is not right. The Mang family is a guest official, and has no roots in the Wei family. The soldiers they command are just to accept the king's orders, so how can they be selfish? Even if the Mang family leads his army, how can they be obedient? . Secondly, although the Mang family leads the general, he does not issue a single order, and is unable to do anything. He is controlled externally by the prime minister and internally controlled by the general. What else can he do? Today, the Mang family is regarded as a minister, and he can consult on matters. But there is a plan, passed to the Mang clan, and the general will stick to it and not violate it. This is why I can give orders from outside the city to the city. Using the Mang clan to lead the camp is to use your shortcomings; to be a minister, you have the right way."
Mr. Zhongyue hit his knees and said, "Sir, this is true. I heard that in Han Bu Shen, the king ordered Wei Xiang to entrust the general to a certain person who did the story. If you can draw it, you will be able to do it. To control the interior with the outside, we seek peace both inside and outside. This is how we must defeat the Qin Dynasty!"
Lord Xinling hadn't heard yet and asked, "Who is the person responsible for Duanzi?"
Mr. Zhongyue said: "That's unclear. You might as well ask about Mang's family, and you will definitely get his feelings."
Lord Xinling asked: "How did you get it?"
Mr. Zhongyue said: "Xiang, Mr. Zhang, Han Bushen and Mr. Cheyou were in the same car. Mr. Cheyou tried to consult Han Bushen. Where is the origin of Han Duanzi Gan? The king wanted to use him, so he ordered him to Military merit.”
Zhang Ye said: "It is true, but what he said is unknown. It seems that he is not Korean, but he is actually a descendant of the Duan Qian family, an old minister of the Wei Dynasty."
