Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 573

"Duanbu Xianbei's people are already here?"

Hearing this, Wang Qian's heart skipped a beat, and he quickened his pace and was about to go in. However, before entering the camp, he stopped the two guards at the camp entrance.

"The general has told me that no one can interrupt this meeting."

"You can't even let me in?" Wang glanced at the other party quickly, "When you go in and report, just say that I have important military information to report, but remember to speak in a lower voice."

The guard also knew Wang Qian's status and understood that he was Wang Jun's confidant, so he nodded and walked in to report. He remembered that Wang Qian's instructions were whispered into Wang Jun's ears, but this big tent Although it was one of the largest tents in the barracks, there was still only a small amount of space. In addition, Duan Xianbei's people were very close, so he could hear a few words, and he could tell by looking at his mouth movements.

"Since he's here, let him in. There are no outsiders here." Wang Jun nodded and smiled at the Xianbei leader opposite.

When Wang rushed in, he glanced at the Xianbei people first and recognized the person who was coming. It was Duan Ji Lu of Duan Bu Xianbei. This person has been basically confirmed to be the next Duan Bu Shanyu, and he can be regarded as a Xianbei One of the important figures in the ministries.

"Duan Ji's family members actually appeared here. It has been confirmed in the battle report that Duan's army is led by him this time. Why is the city still surrounded and he, the commander, actually came here in disguise? Why?"

Wang Gan saluted Duan Ji and his family members, politely speaking, but muttering in his heart.

It turned out that Wang Jun's army at this time had not arrived around Jicheng. Strictly speaking, it was still stationed halfway. This was due to both practical considerations and calculations against the various ethnic groups in Xianbei.

After all, although this time he led the army northward, although he did not use all his strength, it also left Youzhou's defenses somewhat empty. Wang Jun also had to observe the internal and surrounding situations to make sure there was no threat before he actually sent his army to join the siege. After all, this was Once you really join the war, there is not much room for maneuver, and it will be even more difficult to withdraw.

On the other hand, this Xianbei civil war was originally instigated by Wang Jun, and Wang Jun promoted it in order to make Xianbei consume each other and facilitate his control in the future. Of course, there was no need to rush to the front and help Yuwen. The best choice for Xianbei and Duan to deal with the Murong tribe is to let the Murong tribe consume the two tribes first, and then Wang Jun will take the initiative to take charge of the overall situation.

This second point is particularly important. It is Wang Jun's basic strategy for establishing a foothold in the north in the future. Even several Xianbei families know it. Unfortunately, this is a conspiracy. The interests among the Xianbei are uneven, habits are difficult to change, and conflicts and feuds are even more serious. It is difficult to erase, many factors add up, several Xianbei can only follow Wang Jun's script.

Duan Ji and Lu Juan who were present also understood this, so he came here just to take the initiative and get more benefits.

"You're just in time. Ji Lu's family members are here to question Chen Zhi as to why he colluded with Murong's tribe. I have already told him that Chen Zhi has his own arrangements. Since he is involved with Murong's tribe, That should be clarified, but we have our own rules in the Han court, and there are forces behind Chen Zhi, so if we want him to confess, we must first weaken him, otherwise we will not be able to ask anything..."

When Wang Gan heard this, he felt a thump in his heart. He wanted to interrupt Wang Jun, but if he blocked the conversation in front of a foreigner, it would hurt Wang Jun's authority, so he could only wink at the other party.

As Wang Jun spoke, he turned his head, looked at Duan Ji and Lu Juan and said with a smile: "You have met Wang Quan under my command in Guangning County before, and he is also a somewhat capable man. Now he uses the Yuwen Department's The rebel forces and a tacit understanding with the Xiongnu have stabilized the situation in Daijun. Chen Zhi even took the initiative to send a letter asking for help. Chen Zhi did not have much to rely on. Waiting for Murong Yiping , will ask you to go over and ask him, so that he can explain clearly what happened before and after."

"Chen Zhi sent a letter asking for help to Wang Quan?" Duan Ji and the Lu family were stunned when they heard this, and then laughed: "I have heard of Mr. Chen's name for a long time, and "The Theory of Six Kingdoms" is even more exquisite. It has served me well." It is highly praised by all the tribes of Xianbei, and now even professors and nephews have to use it for them to recite and memorize it to show their ambitions, so how can you ask for help?"

There was an air of condescension in his words. Even Wang Jun felt a little unhappy after hearing this, but thinking about the overall situation, he endured it and smiled without saying a word.

Duan Ji Lu's family member continued: "Before, when we besieged Murong Jicheng, Murong Han led an army to break through and wandered behind the coalition forces. Relying on the small number of soldiers and the elite troops, they moved around quickly. In the past few days, they often harassed the people behind us, which made me wait for a few days. The troops were not allowed to attack the city with all their strength, and even the logistics and supplies showed signs of being attacked, which delayed the attack on the city and allowed Murong's troops to take a breather."

After Wang Gan heard this, he finally had an opportunity to interject, and said: "I have also heard about this matter. This division of troops before the battle is really a bold move. The risk is not small. It is difficult for Murong's tribe to dare to make such a decision. But young patriarch, don’t worry, we have sent the cavalry over, and we will definitely pull out Murong Han’s nail!” He wanted to change the topic to the battle situation first, and don’t go further on the previous issues, and let them go. After Duan Ji returns to his family, he will talk to Wang Jun about the newly obtained information.But he really didn't expect that Duan Ji Lujuan changed the topic and sneered: "If he doesn't take risks, his Murong Department will have no chance at all. Murong Xin knows this very well, not to mention this tactic. , it was Chen Zhi who gave him the advice, General, without Chen Zhi's plan, we might have broken through Jicheng and returned to the army victorious!" He specially emphasized the word "Chen Zhi" in his tone.

Of course Wang Jun understood what he meant, smiled, and then said to Wang Qian: "This is actually the reason why Duan Bu has often asked Chen Zhi recently. As an official, I am indeed a little restless, and I actually made suggestions for Murong Bu. , it’s time for a beating.”

Wang Qian was very surprised and couldn't help but ask: "Is this true? How did the young patriarch know about it?"

"There is also someone in Murong's department who wants to change things and told him the reason." Duan Ji and Lu Juan said calmly.

It turned out that someone from Murong's tribe had collaborated with the enemy and leaked the news. Judging from the certainty of what this Xianbei man said, Wang Jun believed [-]% of it, but then he got a headache. Logically speaking, Wang Jun should discuss this news with him first to decide. In order to keep the tone, it was easy to talk to the outside world, but Duan Ji and Lu Jian came in person, and they came very quickly. Today is the first meeting with Wang Jun after the war started. Even if Wang Jun wanted to make arrangements, he couldn't. Can't find opportunity or time.

"General, since you know this man's plan, you should be severely punished. After all, he not only delayed the progress of the siege, but also caused a lot of losses to our department. If someone from Murong's department hadn't informed me, I wouldn't have known who was plotting against me! I heard Chen Zhi has a close relationship with He Jing of Murong's tribe. He Jing is a treacherous person. He is on the death list of our tribe. Chen Zhi is on good terms with him and even makes suggestions. If he is not wearing the hat of a Han court official, he is also a treacherous person. General, you are an officer, so I can’t tell, so I, Duan Bu, will have to ask him personally what his intentions are.”

"Young Patriarch, please be patient." Wang Jun laughed and pointed at Wang Qian, "I will let someone handle this matter. You really don't have to worry. Daijun has everything under control. In a few days, I will summon Chen Zhi to come to the outside of the Great Wall in person to meet with you."

When Wang Qian heard this, his expression changed several times. He looked at the two people talking and hesitated several times.

His expression was seen by Duan Ji and Lu Juan on the opposite side, who said lightly: "I'm afraid that this person won't come here because of his reputation and status."

Wang Jun said: "If it had been in the past, I might have really let him go, but now he also wants something from me. He has to give face to even a lieutenant general under me, let alone my own officer? Don't worry, in order to appease him Due to the chaos within Dai County, he will agree to this condition. He is a smart man." He glanced at Wang Qian and said with a smile: "You should arrange this as soon as possible and don't keep us waiting for a long time."

"With the words of the general, I feel relieved." Duan Ji and Lu Juan nodded, showing satisfaction, and then said: "Actually, the main reason why I came here this time is for this matter. I also know the identity of Chen Zhi It's different. If I hadn't come here in person, I probably wouldn't have gotten such a result. Besides, it's about military rations..."

After hearing this, Wang Qian beside him finally knew why the commander-in-chief wanted to come here in person.

"It seems that the siege of Daji City has really encountered a setback, and it is not an ordinary small setback. These Xianbei people sent troops, even if it was a siege, they wanted to be quick, so they assembled quickly and marched quickly and urgently. Wanting to take over the city in one go, according to their first-come-first-served habit, whoever enters the city first will rob the most. Therefore, the general's main force was not available before. These families did not complain much, but were secretly happy. Now after a few days, After being unable to attack for a long time, not only did the mentality become impetuous, but the supplies were also stretched. He also mentioned that Murong Han harassed the baggage before, but how much baggage can the Xianbei people have?"

Understanding that the commander came here in person, he wanted to get as much military rations as possible, and at the same time, he also wanted to test the Youzhou Group's reaction through Chen Zhi. Wang Qian understood Wang Jun's intention, which was nothing more than to provoke Chen Zhi and Duan Bu. Xianbei's relationship should be exploited and exploited before falling out with Chen Zhi. After all, even Wu Jie was put under house arrest by Chen Zhi.

pity……

Sighing, Wang Qian finally realized that the news could no longer be concealed. Otherwise, once the two people in front of him really talked about military rations, it would mean that the matter of calling Chen Zhi over would have been settled, which would mean that Wang Jun and Chen Zhi were on top. Once both sides fail to step down, the situation will become complicated. After all, Chen Zhi does not have no soldiers to fight and no stable situation, as Wang Quan said!

So, he coughed and whispered in Wang Jun's ear: "General, I really didn't think twice about asking Governor Chen to come over. You should think about it again."

"Huh?" Wang Jun was startled and looked at Wang Qian with doubts on his face, but then he realized something and frowned.

But Duan Ji Lu's family members straightened their faces and asked, "What? Is it because I'm not qualified to meet that Chen Zhi?"
