- . Chapter 335: Qingxu Two Prefectures
"Mi Zhu, did you have a peaceful sleep last night?" The night cleared and the sun rose in the east. When Zhen Yao came to the small courtyard where Mi Zhu lived, he saw the master of the Xuzhou family slowly floating down with his hands behind his back and looking up at the horizon. The snowflakes seemed to be thinking about it.
Hearing Zhen Yao's words, Mi Zhucai's doorman had already been pushed away. He turned around and managed a smile and said thank you to Zhou Mu for his hospitality. Zhu rarely had a peaceful sleep last night. "
"That's good." Zhen Yao nodded in agreement, walked forward and stood side by side with him in the courtyard, and then asked Mi Zhizhi, Yao has something he wants to ask you here. Is he willing to tell you? "
Mi Zhu was not surprised at all. He fluttered his right hand and pointed at the door of the house, asking Zhou Mu to come in and talk in detail. "
The charcoal stove in the house made a "sizzling, sizzling" sound from time to time. After Zhen Yao entered the house, he rubbed his hands and asked, "I wonder when you and Zhao Biejia secretly visited Jizhou?" "
"This," Mi Zhu couldn't help but blush when she heard the word 'undercover investigation'. She said it was an undercover investigation, but what was the difference between it and those detailed investigations? "When Zhu and Biejia first came to Wuji, it happened to be the day when Zhou Mu was hunting." As he spoke, Mi Zhu also told Zhao Yu's foolhardy day as a joke.
When he heard that the two of them had already arrived in late autumn, Zhen Yao's eyebrows suddenly frowned, and then relaxed for a moment. In his heart, he couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied with the secret whistles under his command. He actually allowed a high-ranking official of the state to wander around under his nose without noticing it at all. Thinking of this, Zhen Yao felt the need to internally hammer him.
Although the change in Zhen Yao's expression was short-lived, how could he hide it from Mi Zhu, who had been paying attention to him. Just looking at Zhen Yao's face, Mi Zhu could guess what Zhen Yao was thinking. He immediately clasped his fists and said that Zhu was coming with his family's caravan and had not done anything aggressive. It was not surprising that Zhou Mu didn't know about it. "
Mi Zhu's words made Zhen Yao's face look much better. Although the Zhen family's business firm was the largest in the Han Dynasty, the Mi family's caravan had been a time-honored brand for decades or even nearly a century, with business going from east to west. It's really hard to check. After passing through these things in his mind, Zhen Yao waved his hands and said not to talk about this, but Yao was curious about what happened in Xuzhou. "
When it comes to the main topic, Mi Zhu expresses his dissatisfaction with Zhou Mu. Now his lord is old and living on medicine all day long. The two young protagonists are young and inactive, unable to convince the public. With Cao Cao looking around in the west and the fierce tigers from Jiangdong in the south, Xuzhou is becoming increasingly worried."
Zhen Yao was very disdainful of this. If Cao Cao and Sun Jian were both tigers and wolves, could it be that he, Zhen Yao, was a good person? Shaking his head slowly, Zhen Yao smiled and asked, "Yao Xiang, who gave the advice to your lord and sent you two to Wuji for help?" "
"I'm ashamed to say that," Mi Zhu smiled bitterly upon hearing this, and said softly that I was the one advising my lord and requesting this trip."
Zhen Yao believed Mi Zhu's words. After all, no matter what he knew about history in his previous life or what he saw now, this guy didn't seem to be a die-hard party member of Tao Qian. It was only normal for him to want to find another supporter. But what Zhen Yao is not sure about is why Mi Zhu chose the ones far away in Jizhou instead of the two people next to Xuzhou.
Mi Zhu seemed to notice Zhen Yao's suspicion for a moment. Mi Zhu lowered his head and looked around. When there was no one else within a few feet of the two of them, he opened his mouth and said that Zhu was willing to help Zhou Mu enter Xuzhou. It was not without reason. I wonder if Zhou Mu could Would you like to hear my complaint? "
"Please speak." This is what Zhen Yao wants to hear. If Mi Zhu doesn't give enough reasons, he won't take it easy.
Mi Zhu covered her mouth with her right hand and coughed twice. The state pastor responded. My Mi family is originally a merchant family and is not popular among the wealthy families in Xuzhou. It was only because the Lord valued him that he was able to develop to where he is now. But precisely because of this, our Mi family's foundation in Xuzhou is not deep, and we will be suppressed if anything happens. "
"What does this have to do with Yao? Do you think that Yao can compete with all the nobles in Xuzhou?" Zhen Yao couldn't help but sneered twice. He knew better than me what Xuzhou looked like. Without the approval of all the nobles, it would be difficult to be safe even if he entered. "
"This is the reason why Zhu came to Wuji," Mi Zhu saw that Zhen Yao was already interested, and her speech speed gradually increased. The laws and regulations implemented by Zhou Mu in Jizhou are also applicable in Xuzhou. Although our Mi family is a new family, for now, we still have some weight in Xuzhou. As long as Zhou Mu can come as soon as possible, and with the approval of the lord, and our Mi family's support, establishing a firm foothold in Xuzhou will not be empty talk. "
Zhen Yao smiled. Although the Mi Zhu in front of him was very smart, he was definitely not a good politician. After all, no qualified politician would expose his trump card so eagerly.
However, Mi Zhu came with sincerity, so Zhen Yao couldn't continue to dazzle him, and then he continued: Your Mi family will also survive this crisis, and even be able to take this as a credit and completely establish a foothold in Shilin. , and took a big step forward. I wonder if what Yao said is true? "
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Mi Zhu was determined in her heart, Zhen Yao has undoubtedly agreed after saying this, thinkingAfter several months of work, I finally completed this task. The boulder in my heart dropped and I breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at Mi Zhu, who had different looks before and after, Zhen Yao was also making calculations in his mind. He stared at the other person for a long time before he said that since it was Tao Zhou Mu who invited him affectionately, Yao couldn't refuse. However, there are still some small things that need to be discussed with Zizhong. "
"A trivial matter?" Seeing Zhen Yao's understatement, Mi Zhu, an honest man, really believed it. She nodded and asked what Zhou Mu said? If it is an ordinary matter, Zhu Ke can temporarily agree to it on behalf of his lord. "
Zhen Yao stood up after hearing this, walked to the door and looked at the horizon. Zizhong was reassured that this matter had nothing to do with Tao Gongzu. Zizhong was also engaged in business, should he know about my Zhen family business? "
"Of course I know, of course I know." Mi Zhu nodded repeatedly, but she couldn't figure out what Zhen Yao was going to say. She just vaguely sensed that it should be related to her own business.
"It's not that Zhen Yao is boasting. Nowadays, if a big man talks about doing business, the first place he recommends is my Zhen family's trading firm." Zhen Yao turned around and answered with a smile. But now that Yao wants to cooperate with Zizhong, it is the Zhen family and Mi. family cooperation. "
Hearing this, Mi Zhu asked in a broad voice and asked Zhou Mu to elaborate, how to cooperate? "
Zhen Yao rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, then said, "I need your Mi family's caravan and shop. I think the two families can be merged into one, and I, the Zhen family firm, will be responsible for the business." And your Mi family has withdrawn from the management and only takes the money at the end of each month. Is that okay? "
Although the words seemed to be discussing, there was no room for negotiation when Zhen Yao said these words. Mi Zhu's face became darker as the words fell. If he hadn't taken into account the status gap with Zhen Yao, he might have started to curse.
Mi Zhu would not be willing to hand over the business roads and shops that his family had accumulated over the past century, so Zhen Yao had no choice but to add another fire to him. Zi Zhong, but you, now that the Han Dynasty is constantly fighting, you Mi Zhu alone controls such a large business network, who can Can you feel at ease? "
"What Zhen Yao said is indeed true, just like Mi Zhu sneaking in for dozens of days without being noticed, this kind of thing is very taboo for every lord. No one can safely keep an uncontrollable minister by their side. If he is loyal to you one second, will he rebel the next second?
Mi Zhu listened to these murderous words and violated Zhen Yao's taboo. She clenched her hands into fists and felt very unwilling to do so. Zhen Yao shook his head slowly, stretched out his arm and patted Mi Zhu on the shoulder and said, "You should do it. Old man Tao Qian doesn't know about this, it doesn't mean that Cao Cao, I, Sun Jian and others don't know about it." Just think about it, think about it, only when you give up will you gain something."
After saying this, Zhen Yao stopped staying and quickly walked out of the courtyard towards the prefect's mansion. He also wanted to discuss the Xuzhou matter with his advisers. As for Mi Zhu, Zhen Yao could figure it out.
This trip is not to destroy the foundation of his Mi family, it is just to take away two of his wings. Only two seemingly cumbersome wings are missing. Compared with the wealth and benefits that the Mi family can obtain in the future, this is a business that will only make a profit but not a loss.
Walking into the meeting hall of the Prefect's Mansion, Guo Jia and Xu You were already there. Zhen Yao smiled and told the story of his conversation with Mi Zhu, which made everyone cheer. "This is my lord's great fortune. Mi Zhu is visionary and courageous, but he is too stupid to talk, which allowed my lord to get such a huge benefit. If he hadn't revealed his trump cards, my lord would have to pay a lot more to take over the entire Mi family business."
"So, can this matter be done?" Zhen Yao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and said, "Don't be busy with other things these days. Think about it for me. Why should we raise troops to go south? How should we go south?" Get twice the result with half the effort¡±
"Nuo" Guo Jia and others clasped their fists and agreed. As counselors, these are their duties, so naturally they cannot shirk them. What's more, if my lord's power continues to advance, the others will follow suit.
Zhen Yao's idea was quickly verified. Within three days, Mi Zhu visited the Zhen Mansion. Not only did he readily agree to Zhen Yao's demanding request, but he also invited the Xuzhou gentry who were friendly with the Mi family or attached to the Mi family. Tell it once. With Mi Zhu's introduction, Zhen Yao finally knew enough about the various noble families in Xuzhou, and he was even more confident in his next actions.
"No wonder Liu Daer'er took Xishu so easily in history. It's so cool to have an internal response." After sending Mi Zhu away, Zhen Yao took a sip of the wine and praised Xuzhou happily. In addition, Qingzhou was added, and soon there would be four states. land¡±
Several war horses traveled between Ji and Xu. Zhen Yao looked at the melted snow, but his heart was not broken. The reason Tao Gongzu came up with was really bad. If he really had to rely on Xuzhou's food and clothing to provide disaster relief, The people don¡¯t know how many people are going to die.
But having said that, after Tao Qian and Mi Zhu persuaded Zhen Yao, they did send a convoy northward, but it was impossible to reach Wuji before Kaichun. Seeing the end of the year approaching, Zhen Yao's mood became more and more cheerful. Wuji had developed rapidly in the past few years, and his territory was getting bigger and bigger, but he was a little addicted to conquering cities and territories.
"Three?Going out again after the first month? "At the end of the year dinner, Zhen Mi took the opportunity to toast and sat next to Zhen Yao. The whole Zhen family was not surprised by this, although the complicated relationship between Zhen Yao and Zhen Mi, the brother and sister, had not yet spread. , but everyone here is not a discerning person, they are just pretending not to know.
"My little sister is very well informed." Zhen Yao smiled and shook his head and said that my brother would not personally lead the troops this time. After all, Xuzhou still has its master. I can only send one or two generals on the pretext of assisting defense. "
After Zhen Yao finished speaking, Zhen Mi and the women around her couldn't help but smile with joy. The battlefield was fierce, so they would feel more at ease if Zhen Yao didn't go. After getting what she wanted, Zhen Mi was not tired of being beside Zhen Yao. She blushed and held Zhen Yao's little Zhen Yi in her arms, and began to feed the child.
The two brothers Zhen Yi and Zhen Tian are almost two years old now. They are not at all restless in their aunt's arms. From time to time, they use their hands to stir the spoons, causing Zhen Mi to be covered with spilled soup, but Zhen Yi, who caused the trouble, He laughed non-stop, adding a lot of laughter to the family while sharing the dinner.
The churning wheel is turning, and the Han Dynasty has entered a new year (the third year of Jian'an, that is, 198 AD). Although the heavy snow brought a lot of trouble to Zhen Yao, in spring When the spring season came, Jizhou ushered in a long-lost harvest, allowing Zhen Yao, who was still considering where to allocate grain for military use, to spend his wealth again.
In the middle of the first month, Zhen Yao had already arranged to send troops to Xuzhou, but he heard Chen Lin whisper to the lord, Zilong had already rushed back from Youzhou, and he would be able to return to Wuji in eight days at most. "
"Zilong wants it?" Zhen Yao's eyes lit up, Zhao Yun had been gone a lot, and now finally, it's not what it is now. Of course, what Zhen Yao is most concerned about is whether the cavalry team that Zhao Yun took away has combat effectiveness.
"My lord, with Zilong, all Wuji's combat power has been gathered." Xu You frowned and asked, "Who will your lord send to Xuzhou to help Tao Qian stabilize the situation?" "
As for the candidates to be sent to Xuzhou, Zhen Yao had already thought about it in this month. He immediately opened his mouth and said that Dao Yide now has the demeanor of a general and can be reused. Yao originally wanted Yide, Ziyi and Guan Hai to lead their respective troops and horses. Now that Zilong has returned, there will be one more person."
Chen Lin asked her lord in confusion, was this a little too hasty? After all, Zilong was the leader. "
Zhen Yao stretched out his right index finger and shook it back and forth, smiling and saying that one must strike while the iron is hot. If Zilong really brought back a group of useful soldiers and horses, he would naturally let them put them to use. The terrain of Xuzhou is gentle, which is very suitable for cavalry operations."
Zhen Yao easily hesitated to make a conclusion, but once he made a decision, it was a done deal. Chen Lin stopped talking and began to calculate how much food, grass and baggage the new troops would consume. Being the housekeeper of Jizhou is not easy, there are too many things to do.
"Lord" In the tenth month of the lunar month, outside the north gate of Wuji City, a general dressed in white horse and silver armor turned over and jumped off his mount. He knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists, saying that he had fulfilled his mission and led the cavalry archers back to the city. "
Zhen Yao nodded heavily and stretched out his arms to pull Zhao Yun up. The two of them looked around at the bow cavalry waiting in front. It took a long time for Zhen Yao to start praising Zi Long. It was not an easy trip. These cavalry were better than those who left a few months ago. Substantial changes, good, good.¡±
"Yun is ashamed that he can bring back all the soldiers and horses he used." Zhao Yun came from the north, and his dusty appearance added a bit of vicissitudes to his whole person. He is no longer the pretty boy in the past, but now he is also a resolute man.
What Zhen Yao and Zhao Yun said is that if tens of thousands of people go on an expedition, it is naturally impossible to lead them all. It is normal to have casualties. Zhen Yao just waved his hand slightly and said nothing. He took Zhao Yun's arm and walked towards the city gate.
Returning to Wuji City, a banquet was inevitable. At the banquet, Zhen Yao seemed to casually mention the Xuzhou incident, and Zhao Yun immediately bowed down to ask for a fight. Zhen Yao was very satisfied with this, but he did not agree on the spot. After all, Zhang Jia and others had requested battle many times, but Zhen Yao couldn't get special treatment in front of the generals.
On the third day of February in the third year of Jian'an, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were slowly leaving Wuji City. The leaders were Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Tai Shici. The three of them led ten thousand light cavalry, ten thousand bow cavalry, and Yuan Rong. Ten thousand crossbowmen and ten thousand spearmen set off, heading south in a mighty force. Wuji's move to mobilize troops worried countless people, and the atmosphere among the big men became tense again.
"Lord, Zhen Yao now has strong troops and horses. We must not fight against him." In Luoyang City, Yuan Shao, who had failed in the battle for Chang'an, was listening to his advisers' analysis of Wuji's troop mobilization. Zhen Yao was afraid that he would send troops to Qingzhou. . Back then, Zhen Yao introduced hundreds of thousands of Qingzhou people to Jizhou, making Qingzhou like a bodyless body. Now it seems that he can't help but want to seize it. "
"Otherwise, Qingzhou now has no soldiers and people, and Zhen Yao only needs oneAn edict can make him surrender, not to mention that Beihai Kong Rong made peace with him, and Qingzhou already had the surname Zhen. "Xun Chen shook his head for a while and said that Zhen Yao had mobilized as many as 40,000 to 50,000 troops this time, so he must have a big plan. Chen suggested that the Lord withdraw the troops from Tongguan to prevent the troops from Jizhou."
"Tongguan was won by the lord in a bloody battle, how can he give it up so easily?" Guo Tu also joined in the fun at this time, seeing that Zhen Yao's move was not aimed at Sili, the lord could just sit quietly in Luoyang City. At the same time, you can take care of Cao Cao, so you will be worry-free. "
Yuan Shao was listening to the speculations of his men, and Cao Cao, who got the news, also stayed in the room with his men to ponder. According to the news from the northern sentinel, the troops sent by Zhen Yao this time are marching to Qingzhou, but Yuan Shao doesn't care about it. How could Cao Cao do it? At this moment, Cao Cao has vaguely guessed that Zhang Fei's soldier The horse's destination.
"Lord, if Zhen Yao intends to get involved in Xuzhou, I'm afraid the next plan will have to change." Old man Cheng Yu dozed for a long time. It was not until Cao Cao stared at him for a long time that he uttered a sentence: "Zhen Yao will move his troops." Tao Gongzu agreed. The lord wants to take Xuzhou, so he also needs to find an internal support in Xuzhou."
"Who does Zhongde refer to?" Cao Cao frowned and asked.
Cheng Yu's half-closed eyes opened slightly, and continued to shine. It is said that Tao Gongzu's eldest son did not like military affairs and was fond of speaking. The lord can act like this. If he knows that he must be impatient, he will definitely attach himself to the lord. "
After Cao Cao and all the counselors heard this, their faces showed a bit of joy, and those who originally wanted to persuade Cao Cao to give up also kept silent. Without him, old man Cheng Yu's strategy of attacking the heart is really impressive.
Except for Cao Cao, Sun Jian was also planning, but he didn't know the news that Zhen Yao had already mobilized troops, and was already deploying according to the original plan. After a few months of short rest, the big man is not far away from the flames of war again.
