When the sun was lost, Jincheng Taishou Hao Xingci really sent someone to invite Ren Hong to go to the Taishou Mansion to discuss matters, and after chatting casually for a while, he waved everyone out, even the most confidant Changshi, and then said such a sentence to Ren Hong."
Jincheng County is really ignorant, Daoyuan, as the captain of the Qiang Guard, asked them for the traitorous Qiang ministers, and actually asked you to spend money?
Later, you will tell the county secretary about the money and ask him to reimburse you. ”Ren Hong was not surprised, even Xin Wuxian had heard about this, and the Taishou who controlled the whole county could not know?
He only smiled and said: "On the way I came, I went over the dossier I got from the subject country, and I felt a little weird, why did the small tribe of more than 1,000 people in Longye dare to rebel, so I privately searched for the remnants of Longye, and I also happened to find one." ”"If Dao Yuan wants to know the reason, just ask the old man directly."
Contrary to Xin Wuxian, who spoke coarsely and was easily excited and angry, Hao Xingci showed a kind of old-fashioned and unfazed waves: "There is indeed a hidden secret in the affairs of the Longye Department, but the former captain of Huqiang cannot be blamed for it. ”Well?
Can't blame it all!
That's weird, it seems that Hao Xingci has guessed his next move, and the silk book of impeachment of his predecessor in Ren Hong's sleeve has not yet been hot.So Ren Hong began to criticize his predecessor unscrupulously: "As the captain of the Qiang Protector, he should have despised the Qiang and returned the situation in the Qiang to the court at any time, but the former Qiang Protector had something to hide, so that the guilty Xian Lingqiang was exonerated and the innocent Long Yeqiang was exterminated, which would make the small Qiang tribe who took refuge in the Han Dynasty feel cold."
And the imperial court does not know this truth, and it will be biased in its handling. ”"Actually, the court knows about Long Yeqiang."
Hao Xingci said with a smile: "In April last year, the Longye Department was destroyed, and the Taishou Mansion, the Duwei Mansion and even the Liangzhou Thorn History all secretly reported the true situation, and according to the process, they were directly sent to the two mansions, and then played with Shangshutai. ”Didn't the four chief officials protect each other and conceal the report?
This is what Ren Hong didn't expect: "Then," Hao Xingci sighed: "Then the general left the three parts of the song and did not send it, but separately approved the part of the captain of Huqiang about punishing Long Yeqiang and treating him as a slave." ”In other words, Huo Guang was very clear about this matter from beginning to end, but he acquiesced to the actions of the former captain Huqiang.Hao Xingci looked at Ren Hong's somewhat distracted face, and showed a knowing smile, as if to say, young man, this is officialdom, don't be smart.And when the people brought the soup up, after Hao Xingci tasted it, what he said made Ren Hong's heart even more shocked: "By the way, how does the yellow sheep that Captain Xin invited you to eat in the morning?"
”Ren Hong stopped the soup dagger in his hand and looked up at Hao Xingci, his tone and expression were full: You young people, you always want to make some big news."
The yellow mutton is a little hard and a little faty, but it's not as delicious as the soup that is too guarded."
Hao Xingci smiled: "It's just a little bit of a cheek." ”"What Xin Duwei said to Daoyuan, I can guess it, it is still the same way he usually does when he is deliberating, every inch of land must be fought for, and he can't allow Lingqiang to return to Huangshui, he must fight back, and even shouted some slogans to conquer the sea of fresh water and slaughter Zhuqiang."
Ren Hong pretended to be surprised: "Taishou is really like a god, it is true." ”Hao Xingci shook his head and said: "Xin Duwei has lofty ambitions, and he dislikes Jincheng County for being too small, so he is a little uneven, and he feels that his talents have been buried, he wants to make meritorious contributions, and he wants to be a marquis. ”Ren Hong answered: "Those who have already sealed the Hou and skipped the dragon gate will not be so eager." ”"That's right."
Hao Xingci laughed: "That's why the old man is willing to say these heart-to-heart words to Daoyuan, Daoyuan is the marquis by himself, borrowing the power of Wusun, but if someone wants to be a marquis with Qiang, he has to use tens of thousands of soldiers, people's lives, and even the cost of delaying state affairs to dye his talisman red!"
”This was already very serious, and Hao Xingci said again: "Actually, Weng Sun sent me a letter, saying that before you went to take office, you went to ask him about Qiangzhong, what did he say?"
”Ren Hongdao: "General Hou said that Qiangdi does not seek merit, but seeks nothing. ”Haoxing slapped his palm: "That's right, Weng Sun summed it up well, many border county chiefs just don't understand this, I won't talk about so many examples in Xiaowu, just say that it happened a few years ago."
Has Daoyuan ever heard of the rebellion in Yizhou County in the fourth year of the first century?
”Yizhou County is Yunnan in later generations, and Ren Hong's head is the head: "I have heard of it." ”Hao Xingci said: "In fact, the rebellion began as early as the first year of the first year of the succession to the throne of the present day, and the Taishou of Yizhou County wanted to expand the jurisdiction and forced some tribes to surrender as the people of the household, which led to the rebellion of Lian Tou, Gu Xuan, and Qi Ke and the twenty-four yi.The imperial court sent Shui Hengdu Lieutenant Lu Pohu to recruit the people, and Fa Qianwei and Shu County soldiers rushed for their lives to attack Yizhou County, and the reply to the imperial court was broken. ”"But in fact, it was just those barbarians who fled into the deep mountains and old forests to continue to resist stubbornly, and the Han army had an epidemic that could not last for a long time, so they returned to the court."
So Yizhou County continued to be in turmoil, and in the third year of the first century, it swept the whole county again.Because the imperial court was unable to rescue, the Taishou of Yizhou County was killed, and this time, Lu Pohu also lost the battle, and reported that more than 4,000 soldiers died and drowned, but in fact, the number of people killed in battle and died of disease was twice as many!
”It was not until the fourth year of the First Dynasty that the reinforcements sent by the imperial court arrived again, and this time the battle was a great victory.Dahonglu Tian Guangming replied that more than 30,000 people were beheaded and captured, and more than 50,000 heads of livestock were obtained.The imperial court announced that more than 50,000 people were beheaded and captured, and more than 100,000 livestock were obtained. ”Hao Xingci was in charge of this matter in the court at that time, so he remembered it very clearly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was slightly sarcastic."
As for how many people were captured, only Tian Guangming himself knows."
Ren Hong knew that Tian Guangming was sealed as the Marquis of Guannei afterwards, and according to the law of the Han Dynasty, the first captives of more than 2,000 captives in battle could be sealed as the Marquis, which shows that the water is really big.Hao Xingci continued: "The more troublesome is still to come, in the fifth year of the first century, the Marquis of Jumachi annexed those small tribes that had surrendered to the Han Dynasty, strengthened himself, and expanded his land to the southern boundary of Yizhou County.However, the Han soldiers suffered from the epidemic again and were unable to fight again, so the court praised the Marquis of Jumachi for leading his ruler and the people to fight against him, and established Wubo as the king of Jumachi, and the matter of Yizhou was settled, and the price was to give up a few counties to the king of Jumachi. ”After the story was told, Hao Xingci said earnestly: "At the beginning, Yizhou County Taishou was unwilling to stay in the border county all the time, and wanted to expand the territory and make great contributions.As a result, he overestimated his talent, put his life on the line, and stabbed the honeycomb, causing chaos in the south for five years, with more than 10,000 Han soldiers killed and wounded, and the court spent 300,000 yuan in silk, which outweighed the loss. ”"Fighting in the south of the city, dying in the north of Guo, not burying Wu in the wild, attacking in the morning, returning to the old man at dusk to participate in the battle of Dawan, and also fighting in the two years of the Tianhan Dynasty, I know what will happen if I don't consider the consequences.""
Xian Lingqiang is prosperous, all the tribes combined, the population is tens of thousands, the victory is twenty or thirty thousand soldiers, and they are good at fighting in the Hehuang Mountains.If there is a real fight, the three or five thousand garrisons of Jincheng County will not be able to pacify it, and it will definitely involve the entire Liangzhou, and even have to transfer troops from Guanzhong.The war lasted for several years, and in the end, he could only expel Xian Lingqiang, just like Yizhou in the first year of the first century. ”Hao Xingci's expression became relaxed: "On the other hand, sacrificing a dragon Yebu in exchange for a year-old peace, this is good for Jincheng County, and it is also what the court wants to see." ”Ren Hong said cautiously: "But the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, now Xian Lingqiang is testing the bottom line of the Han Dynasty a little bit, and General Hou also asked me to pay more attention to them." ”Hao Xingci nodded: "Of course the old man knows, Jincheng County is not blindly retreating, as long as it is not Huangxia first, and does not invade the Yiting barrier of our county, what if you endure it for a while?"
You must know that the Huns have endured for more than a year after losing the north and south of the Western Regions, and they most want to see chaos in Qiangzhong.What's more, Wuhuan has started a war with the Han Dynasty, and at this juncture, Xiqiang must not be in chaos. ”He became serious again: "So Daoyuan, no matter who leads the war in Xiqiang, whoever has to take responsibility." ”"Don't look at General Duliao's attack on Wuhuan and the war, not only did he have nothing to do, but he also made the marquis.""
But you're different."
It's "us", right?
Ren Hong knew Hao Xingci's concerns.Hao Xingci saw that the time was almost up, so he went to the bottom with Ren Hong, if the Western Lieutenant and the Captain of the Qiang Protector joined forces to go alone, he was really a little unable to suppress it, and he hoped to win Ren Hong over: "I will be sent to do the drudgery of the Captain of the Qiang Protector without power and soldiers, Dao Yuan should understand his situation."
If something happens, no one in the court will help you speak, and you don't have to give away your hard-won position and future for the sake of other people's fame, do you understand?
”"Thank you Taishou for your advice, the kid has benefited a lot!"
Ren Hong got up and said in front of Hao Xingci: "I understand the overall situation, just like Taishou, Lord Sui!"
I am willing to help Taishou, restrain Xin Wuxian's fierce horse, and ensure that there is nothing to do in Jincheng Qiang!
”This romance is sincere, and not a single word is true.Just like the promise he made to Xin Wuxian in the morning: "I am the main battle!"
I am willing to conspire with great things, but I am too conservative to keep my weight, and this matter cannot be clearly in conflict with Haoxingci, it is better to capture the old people, and I am responsible for making a mistake with it, and secretly helping the captain to advance the war. ”When he returned to his residence, Ren Hong was a little hungry, and in the afternoon he ate at Haoxingci's mansion, because he had to watch out for every word of this old bureaucrat, and he was not full at all.It's a pity that Xia Weng didn't come, so he couldn't give him the following, and after he ordered him to go down, the chef only asked the cook to send three boiled chickens.Rubbing these three hot eggs on the desk, Ren Hong only felt that this trip to Qiangzhong was really getting more and more exciting: "Hao Xingci of the main Sui, Xin Wuxian of the main battle, and the unpredictable attitude, knowing everything, deliberately sent me to Qiangzhong, but did not give clear instructions to Huo Guang, plus the Qiang people" "I Ren Laoxi, this is to dance on three no, four eggs." ”
