Chapter 212 Nine Fields
Back in Xidu, Yang Zheng offered Wang Jinhu delicious food and drink.

But he brought Linghu Sheng to meet the brothers who had killed together from Luogu in the past.

The haze on Linghu Sheng's face was dispelled a lot.

Wang Jinhu raised troops, and Linghu Sheng ran for him, and he suffered a lot of grievances.

But if the decision is wrong, no matter how capable the subordinate is, it cannot be recovered.

In the Battle of Qushan, Cao Wei’s losses were greater. Since the beginning of the year, Guo Dun, the prefect of Longxi, was defeated. Nearly [-] households were taken away in Longxi and Nan’an. Tens of thousands of troops were mobilized from Yongliang, and Hu Lie was killed in battle.

But what the Shu army paid was Ju'an.

Li Xin also broke through and fled back to Hanzhong.

Assemble Guo Huai, Chen Tai, Deng Ai, Xu Zhi and other Yongliang generals, but let Jiang Wei run away.

However, the imperial court obviously did not value these losses, and cared more about Wang Jinhu.

Only five days later, Chang'an's military order arrived in Xiping, and it was the personal order of Anxi General Sima Zhao: the traitor Wang Jinhu must be arrested.

Generally speaking, the less you talk, the more attention you pay.

Yang Zheng thought about making a fake one, and went up to fool him.

But Sima Zhao doesn't seem to be a person who can be fooled easily, and Wang Jinhu will also be a person who is unwilling to give in in the future, and maybe he will make trouble.

Sima Zhao's order did not set a date, so Yang Zheng was not in a hurry.

But Lu Zhi came to advise, "Sima Zhao is probably trying to test it."

"Uncle thinks whether Wang Jinhu will hand it over?" Yang Zheng cared about Linghu Sheng, not Wang Jinhu.

Lu Zhi sighed and said: "Wang Ling can't fight Sima Yi, and Wang Ling never thought of fighting Sima Yi. He just coveted the power of the court and supported Cao Biao, the king of Chu. Attaching to him, taking Xuchang instead of Luoyang, is a self-defeating move, Wang Ling has a deep understanding of the art of war, but he is too much, too much inferior to Sima Yi in terms of strategy."

At the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, how many heroes were there?
This era is also bright because of their existence.

But Wei Wu, Zhuge Wuhou, and Sima Yi are all epoch-making existences.

There are many generals like Wang Ling.

Whether it's strategy or military strategy, Wang Ling is a step behind Sima Yi.

"My nephew knows." Yang Zheng cupped his hands.

Yang Zheng didn't expect Wang Ling to defeat Sima Yi, but he just hoped that he wouldn't collapse too quickly and give Sima Yi more trouble.

As for Wang Jinhu, Yang Zheng thought it was better to keep it.

Whenever he was free, Yang Zheng would ask Lu Zhi for advice on politics, and he would treat him like a nephew with respect.

Lu Zhi knew everything and taught him everything.

In his spare time, he would also urge Yang Zheng to study.

Explain the essence yourself.

If you want to fight against the gentry, you must first understand them.

Know yourself and know your enemy.

And the Confucian classics are not all dross, and the current world cannot be viewed from the perspective of the future world.

After the Gaoping Mausoleum Incident, the relationship between the two gradually became closer.

But things in the world are always like the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop.

Wang Jinhu became restless and frequently contacted the outside world.

A large family of Han people in the western capital, and his own personal soldier.

The people in the dark camp also found out that he was in secret contact with people from the east.

The Taiyuan Wang family naturally has its own secret channels.

Guo Huai, the governor of Yongliang, is the son-in-law of the Wang family, so how can no one secretly communicate with Wang Jinhu?
At first Yang Zheng felt that Wang Jinhu might have gotten in touch with Guo Huai.

Later, I thought it was impossible. When Wang Jinhu was at his best, Guo Huai didn't respond, so there was no need to follow him into the pit now.

There is also Sima Zhao sitting in Chang'an.

Guo Huai doesn't think about himself, but also thinks about the entire Guo family in Taiyuan.

"Didn't you find out the specific content?" Looking at the five dark camp elites in front of him, Yang Zheng couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

If there is no hard corner, even if the stage is fought, the opera will not be sung.

In fact, Zhao Ahqi and Gongsun Fu are not very qualified, they can only be regarded as good performers.

The five dark camp elites all lowered their heads.

Yang Zheng didn't criticize them too much, "Go down."

"Wei!" The five left hand in hand.

Yongliang's future struggles will basically be stabbed in the back.

If the dark camp cannot develop, it will definitely be at a disadvantage.

The problem is that there is no shortage of warriors who charge into battle.

The only two who are competent are Lu Zhi and Du Yu.

But how could Lu Zhi's character do these things?
Du Yu, there are some problems with loyalty.

If the buttocks are crooked, what you see will be different, and the conclusions you draw are even more problematic.

Linghu Sheng can barely do it, but there is still some gap between him and Yang Zheng now.

With Wang Jinhu around, Yang Zheng didn't dare to entrust important matters rashly.

It also requires absolute loyalty, both civil and military skills, and certain abilities.

The problem of the shortcomings of the subordinates' talents was exposed.

Most of the talents these days are from noble families, how could they vote for themselves?

It's almost a dead end.

"Report to the general, and Chang'an sent people to urge the arrest of Wang Jinhu." Meng Guan reported inside.

Yang Zheng's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself, isn't this the person he's looking for?
There is no problem with Meng Guan's loyalty. He was born in the Qingying camp, has a good command of military strategy, is knowledgeable, and has good numerology skills. It is rumored in the Qingying camp that he likes watching astronomy at night.

Generally, people who are good at mathematics must think carefully.

To pacify the West Sea, he planned everything behind the scenes, and let the captive leaders kill each other.

He has contributed a lot to Xihai's easy collection.

There are still talents, the key lies in whether you have the vision to discover talents.

"Don't worry about Chang'an, I'll give you a heavy responsibility!" Yang Zheng laughed.

"Please send me from the general." Meng Guan also looked forward to it.

"Xiping's shortcoming is not in the light, but in the dark! I want you to take charge of the affairs of the secret camp, what do you want?"

"Dark camp?" Meng Guan hesitated.

After all, at his age, he must like to stand in the sun and charge forward.

"In the midst of strategizing, hurting the enemy invisible, there is a long way to go, do you dare to take over?" It is better to be a general than to be a general, young people have their own ambition and spirit.

"As long as the general orders, Guan will obey everything!" Meng Guan said with emotion.

"Okay!" Yang Zheng took off the high-quality ring sword on his waist, and handed it to him with both hands.

Meng Guan half-kneeled on the ground, holding it with both hands.

"In the affairs of the world, yin and yang complement each other, and hardness and softness complement each other. From now on, you will be a sharp knife in my hand!" Yang Zheng tried his best to have a sense of ritual and solemnity.

The orthodox system is concurrently held by Yang Zheng.

"The subordinates will live up to the general's entrustment!" Meng Guan's face trembled slightly, and his eyes were extremely firm.

Born in a humble background, he has to be reused at a young age.

I am afraid there is no second home in the world.

Only Yang Zheng dared to play like this.

However, the name of the dark camp is not too low-key.

Just by hearing the name, you can roughly guess what it does.

Since Meng Guan likes astronomy, it might as well be called a nine camp.

There are nine fields in the sky and nine states in the earth.

Xinghan is brilliant, from Jiuye.

The hero wields his sword and moves in Kyushu!
"From now on, you will be the deputy commander of the Nine Camps!"

Gongsunfu and Su Hong sold salt and got [-] bolts of silk, all of which were handed over to Jiuyeying to make equipment, develop offline, and recruit talents.

If you want Yamen, you should get a thousand horses, and a hundred supervisors, five hundred horses.

According to the purchasing power of this era, a Yamen general is only a thousand horses.

Thirty thousand bolts of silk is a huge number.

This shows the great benefits of salt.

This is still profitable without opening the situation.

Since the Nine Camps were handed over to Meng Guan, Gongsun Fu and Su Hong simply concentrated on managing the salt affairs, so as not to cause friction between the old man Gongsun Fu and the newcomer Meng Guan.

Fighting is actually fighting for money and food.

The importance of economic lifeline is self-evident.

Sure enough, for anything, as long as you find the right person, the effect will be immediate.

In only four or five days, Meng Guan got a clear picture of Wang Jinhu's background.

In addition to surprise, Yang Zheng was also frightened.

Wang Jinhu actually conspired to coerce himself to control Xiping, occupy the magpie's nest, recruit Qianghu based on Xiping and Xihai, wait for the opportunity, first take Liangzhou, then take Guanzhong, and then attack Luoyang to eliminate Sima and his son...

Boss Cao took the emperor and made the princes far-reaching.

But the problem is that Boss Cao has his own team, and he brought down the world with one sword and one spear.

What does Wang Jinhu have?
There are quite a few madmen these days.

Yang Zheng suddenly felt that he had underestimated Wang Jinhu.

With such a big step, I am not afraid of tearing my crotch.

"Who is he conspiring with? How much strength does he have?"

Tigers are never well fed and will eat people one day.

"There are three groups of supporters, one is Chang'an, and the other is the Wang family." Meng Guan hesitated to speak.

Yang Zheng had a bad premonition in his heart, "Tell me, who is the third share?"

"Wuwei Feng Qi."

"Okay." Yang Zheng laughed twice.

This guy is so pervasive.

He wanted to tease him, but he didn't forget to tease himself.

After all, Xihai Yanma has such a big interest.

And Fatty Feng couldn't get enough.

This kind of secret struggle, as long as you know who is the enemy and who is the friend, things will be much easier.

The Xihai salt horse is like a huge bait, and Feng Qi knows the taste, so he will definitely not be able to escape.

Now Yang Zheng is more concerned about another question, "Is Linghu Sheng involved?"

"At present, Linghusheng has not been found to be involved. Linghusheng deliberately avoids Wang Jinhu, and Wang Jinhu is also guarding against Linghusheng. During this period of time, the two have not seen much." Meng Guan spoke clearly and methodically.

Yang Zheng heaved a sigh of relief. Luo Gu's brothers who broke through the siege were getting less and less, and Yang Zheng didn't want anyone to die by his hands.

In the past, each was his own master and each had his own affairs, which is understandable.

After all, the relationship between the Linghu family and the Wang family lies here.

But now that he accepts Wang Jinhu with good intentions, Wang Jinhu wants to avenge his kindness. Since he doesn't show affection, don't blame him for being too ruthless.

"You've done a good job. The matter of Wang Jinhu is almost done. I'll give you the second mission now."

"Please order from the general."

"The family members of Duke Lu and Linghu Sheng are in Kanto. You have to invite them back. As long as the family members of the lieutenant officers and soldiers are not in Xiping, bring them all back. I will ask Zhou Yu and Gongsun Fu to cooperate with you."

"only!"

"If you are in danger, you can give up, your safety is the main priority!" Yang Zheng patted him on the shoulder.

Meng Guan was so moved that he didn't seem to know what to say. He knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Yang Zheng, and then strode out the door.

　Meng Guan was addicted to learning since he was a child, and he was proficient in astronomical phenomena and calendars.In the first year of Jin Taixi (290), the regime gradually fell into the hands of the empress dowager's father, Taiwei Taibo Yang Jun.In the first year of Yongping (291), Empress Jia and Sima Wei, king of Chu, conspired to murder Yang Jun, and abolished the Queen Mother Yang as a commoner. Meng Guanzhu made great contributions, and was promoted to the servant of Huangmen, with a rank of fifth rank, and named Shanggu County male.Since then, the killings in the court have intensified, and finally led to the "Eight Kings Rebellion".In the sixth year of Yuankang (296), Qi Wannian, the leader of the Di clan, gathered more than 10 people, surrounded Jingyang, harassed Guanzhong, and advanced into Chang'an.Although the Guanzhong area was guarded by Liang Wang and Zhao Wang, they were unable to defeat the enemy because they were busy with the civil war.In the ninth year of Yuankang (299), the imperial court used Meng Guan as the general of the conquest.Meng Guan led his army to the west and fought hard to defeat the enemy. He was awarded the title of General Right Guard.In the second year of Yongkang (301), King Sima Lun of Zhao usurped the government. Nian Meng Guanping made great achievements, and he was named General Annan and led troops to station in Yuwan.After Emperor Huai of the Western Jin Dynasty ascended the throne in the first year of Guangxi (306), a "Rebellion of Eight Kings" that lasted for 16 years finally died down.Meng Guan was regarded as the henchman of Sima Lun, king of Zhao, and was beheaded, and he was implicated in the three clans.
