Wei Ni
Chapter 116
The person who came uninvited was Qianhong, the second son of Qianzhao.
He was appointed by Tian Yubiao, the general who supervised the [-] newly recruited Wuhuan Tuqi.
"Hong has courage and is quite fatherly."
In the past, when Tian Yu was recalled to Luoyang to discuss the matter of merging the prefectures, Emperor Cao Rui wanted to recruit Wuhuan Tuqi to increase his troops, so Tian Yu said so and elected Qianhong as the general.
Cao Rui agreed without thinking about it.
Because he knew that Tian Yu's intention for recommending Qianhong was not only to repay Qianzhao's timely support during the Battle of Macheng in the past, but also because many Western Xianbei tribes admired Qianzhao very much.
Therefore, letting Qianhong accompany Tian Yu is beneficial to the strategy of merging the state.
And Qianhong came to visit Xia Houhui because he was grateful to him for admonishing Cao Rui to carry out the policy of Qianzhao legacy.
From the perspective of being a son of man, he certainly wants to see a perfect ending to the unfinished business of his father, and if everything goes well, when he records the Hetao Plain once again as the credit of the Central Plains Dynasty, he will definitely add a sum of money. The discourse of "recovering Hetao, all tricks" made the family's reputation more prosperous.
If you think about it from his personal level, Xia Houhui gave him an opportunity to accumulate meritorious service.
Based on the achievements of his father's generation, it is actually not difficult for him to embark on an official career and become a general in the future. The difficulty lies in the fact that it takes a long time to emerge.
Just like the meritorious generals of Wei Wu and Cao Cao in the past, how many nephews and nephews are there now?
Even though Zhang Liao, who was greatly favored by Cao Pi and whose meritorious service was called the number one general in Wei's foreign countries, his son Zhang Humeng has been an official for many years, but now he is just a general of the teeth, serving as a pawn of eight hundred cavalry in the backbone battalion It's just the cavalier.
Now that he is personally awarded an official position by the emperor Cao Rui and participates in the management of the state, his official career has gone more smoothly than Zhang Hu and others-the day when the Hetao Plain returns to the territory of Wei State is the time for him to transfer!
The reason was that his father's trust in the western Xianbei tribe was too high, and the temple would transfer him to other places in order to prevent the birth of the second Liaodong Gongsun clan.
Of course, like this kind of transfer, out of the consideration of placating him, the temple will naturally use the method of promotion.
Therefore, after Tian Yu sent his subordinates to tell him that Xia Houhui had also come to the Yin Pavilion, he understood it and rushed to pay a visit to thank him.
Sophisticated~
You won't offend people if you don't flirt, but you will be slandered and criticized if you are ungrateful.
Xia Houhui was quite pleased with his arrival.
Although he delayed the time he wanted to ask Tian Yu in private, he was not in a hurry tonight, and he could know what happened north of Yanmen Pass through Qianhong.
One is to visit with gratitude, and the other is to lower your posture and ask humbly, so that the two who are meeting for the first time can have a good talk.
When the night sky is filled with stars and the surrounding fields are silent, it is time to say goodbye and go back to his camp. But Qian Hong said, "I have heard that General Xiahou is very brave. Out of the thousands of soldiers and horses, His Majesty has now sent him to conquer Bingzhou, so he should hope that the general will take the head of Ke Bineng, the chieftain of the bandit, from among the thousands of troops, right?"
Xia Houhui raised his eyebrows slightly for such a simple and profound question.
Maybe he didn't answer for a long time, but put his hand on his chin and rubbed his short beard, waiting for the next sentence with an interested smile.
Without him.
With Qianhong's current status and responsibilities, Gein is not qualified to ask him about such things.
And he asked without hesitation.
In this way, it can be inferred that this was ordered by Tian Yu.
It should be because Tian Yu heard the reason behind my words during the discussion in the army today.
But why didn't he ask Qin Lang directly?
as predicted.
When Qianhong saw him smiling without speaking, he smiled tacitly, and immediately got up and saluted, "General, it's late at night, and General Xiaoqi should have gone back to rest for the night. If the general is not sleepy, Why don't you come with me to meet Tian Taishou in the tent?"
"Let's go."
Xia Houhui also stood up.
After a short while, they arrived at Tian Yu's military tent.
The soldiers on duty in front of the military tent should have been instructed in advance, and Qian Hong didn't need to let them communicate, so he directly opened the curtain and stretched out his hand to invite Xia Houhui to enter first.
The lights in the tent are bright.
At this time, Tian Yu, with his hands behind his back facing the tent door, was holding on to a grease lamp and standing in front of a map stretched with ropes, looking at it carefully, wondering what he was thinking about.
"Take the liberty to harass me in the middle of the night, and I hope the prefect Tian is not guilty."
Without waiting for Qianhong's reminder, Xia Houhui first bowed his hands and made a polite sentence.
It also interrupted Tian Yu's thoughts.
It's just that he didn't turn around, but looked back, then raised his hand with a smile and waved at Xia Houhui, "There is no outsider here, please don't be polite, let's come to see the map."
No one else here?
Since you and Qianzhao have a fellowship, Qianhong is not considered an outsider, but neither am I?
Or in other words, the outsider you mentioned refers to Qin Lang?
Moreover, you have already talked about the deployment and thinking of the battle this afternoon, why do you still ask me to look at the map?
In an instant, Xia Houhui's mind was full of thoughts.
"only."
According to the words, Xia Houhui also picked up a grease lamp from the table and walked up to him, the smile on his face was like the spring breeze in March, "I wonder where the eunuch asked me to look at the map?"
"here."
Tian Yu stretched out his hand and pointed, "Dingxiang County, kill Hukou."
Dingxiang County was established by Emperor Gaodi of the former Han Dynasty in Yunzhong County. It was the place where the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu passed through the city during the period of the Second Emperor Wenjing. Later, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attacked the Huns, the general Wei Qing also entered Hetao from this place many times. .
And Shahukou (the west entrance of Xikou) is actually a pass.
Guancen Mountain, which extends from the Luliang Mountains to the north, is the boundary separating Hetao and Yanmen County. However, the Hun River flowing into the Dahe (Yellow River) crosses Guancen Mountain, forming a natural passage without crossing the ridge. Yanmen County and Yunzhong County.
Such an important passage is naturally a must for building a defensive pass.
As early as in the Warring States period, Zhao Guo defeated the Huns and set up Yunzhong County, and also built fortifications here.
Xia Houhui, who had done enough homework before Suizheng, of course knew how to kill Hukou.
I also know that this pass has the effect of a surprise soldier.
Back then, Qianzhao led Budugen and other tribes to kill Hukou and entered Yunzhong County to defeat Ke Bineng. There was a big reason that Ke Bineng couldn't detect the movement before the army walked out of Shahukou.
Now, is Tian Yu trying to repeat the old trick?
It's just that Ke Bineng has already suffered a loss once, so he should be on guard~
Xia Houhui's gaze was fixed on the east side of Shahukou: Yanze (Daihai) in Qiangyin County, where the cattle and sheep grazing for Ke Bineng's army, asked in a deep voice, "Shahukou I know the terrain, but I don't know what the prefect wants to do?"
"Tibetan soldiers, set up an ambush."
Tian Yu replied succinctly, "If the thief Ke Bi Neng is defeated, he will not dare to stay in Yanbei, but will flee to Yunzhong County. If our army hides troops here first, we can take the opportunity to take his head."
uh~
Understood.
You really are dedicated to killing Ke Bineng.
Hearing this, Xia Houhui's smile suddenly became brighter.
Actually think about it.
For Tian Yu, if Kebi can not die, there will be more border troubles, and it is naturally out of the question to bring the Hetao Plain into the Wei State's territory to manage and merge the states.After all, even the western Xianbei tribes in Shuofang, Wuyuan and other counties are willing to submit to Wei State in honor, but they are also worried about Ke Bineng's revenge.
"To tell you the truth, I have arranged in advance for the Xianbei tribe, which is a vassal of Wei State, to send troops here at the discretion of His Majesty."
After explaining, Tian Yu continued without waiting for Xia Houhui to say anything, "However, with just these Hulu people, there is absolutely no possibility of accomplishing anything; the southern Xiongnu cavalry under my control have no intention of dying or turning their heels. , The time for Wuhuan Tuqi to be recruited into the army is too short to fight to the death, and it is also difficult to make meritorious deeds. Therefore, I hope that Zhiquan can help me. When His Majesty called me back to Luoyang to take office, he praised you many times, saying that you are brave Extraordinary, resourceful, and not concerned with life and death for the benefit of the country, it is really the best choice for the commander to set up an ambush!"
I would like to answer.
But dare not~
Seeing Tian Yu's expectant eyes, Xia Houhui responded with a wry smile.
Because he can't go.
It's not that he didn't want to kill the thief Ke Bineng and establish a meritorious deed that would be famous in history.
It was that he mentioned this matter when he was in Luoyang before, but Emperor Cao Rui refused in an undeniable way.
Moreover, Jiang Ji also kindly reminded him, but also secretly warned him not to go against Cao Rui's wishes.
Under such circumstances, it means that once he goes, even if he really gets the head of Ke Bineng, he will leave an impression of "arrogant and rebellious" in Cao Rui's heart, and then become "not enough to rely on as a heart". "The courtier.
no way.
Compared with courtiers who benefit the country, Cao Rui prefers people who are in harmony with him.
Moreover, all of Xia Houhui's power comes from Cao Rui's will, and he cannot lose the king's heart for a Ke Bineng.
In other words, Cao Rui did not take his strategy but still allowed him to come to Bingzhou, in fact, he wanted to test his thinking.
It depends on whether he is "an official like a saint", whether he can restrain his greed for merit, taking risks and acting boldly, to decide whether to reuse him in the future.
That's why on the way to Bingzhou, he had no grudge against Qin Lang's move to seize military power.
Yes, he had no intention of seeking merit in this battle at all.
The reason why I always wanted to ask Tian Yu for advice was that I guessed that Tian Yu really wanted to kill Ke Bineng, so I wanted to find an opportunity to express my thoughts on the war and see if I could help Tian Yu a little bit.
Unexpectedly, not only did Tian Yu have a more mature strategy, but he still wanted him to supervise the ambush himself!
"Is there something unspeakably hidden about juvenile power?"
Seeing that Xiahouhui smiled wryly and did not answer, Tian Yu paused for a moment, and then urged, "I know that there are no orders in the army to do it without permission. If Zhiquan is trapped here, you can rest assured. As long as Zhiquan is willing to set up an ambush, I went to find General Xiaoqi to ask for orders, I think General Xiaoqi would definitely not refuse me."
Qin Lang, who wants to rely on you to win this battle, of course won't and dare not refuse
But the problem is, I don’t want to and dare not go!
"Ugh"
After a long silence, Xia Houhui sighed, took a step back and bowed to Tian Yu, "The prefect didn't give me a great job because of my ignorance and learning. I can't refuse. But it's not because I don't want to, but I really can't." !” (end of this chapter)
He was appointed by Tian Yubiao, the general who supervised the [-] newly recruited Wuhuan Tuqi.
