Chapter 609 Yun Meng
Unlike the situation of hundreds of thousands of people and tens of thousands of soldiers in the Central Plains, in the Western Regions, some countries may have only a few hundred soldiers. In such a long time, it is good to have today's achievements from the situation that the two people did not have much foreign aid.
"That Yunmeng girl?" Zhang Xiu asked.
"Lord, there is one more thing to ask when you come back from this time." Speaking of Yun Meng, Liu Si immediately put down the wine cup in his hand.
"Say it, as long as it's not too out of the way." Seeing his old subordinates for a long time, Jia Rong was also a little happy.
"Miss Yunmeng, she once saved her humble life when she was in the Western Regions, so..." Liu Si, who has always been eloquent, also hesitated when he mentioned Yun Meng.
"Huh? Did she save you? Zhang Xiu asked on the side. When Liu Si was in the Western Regions, Yun Meng sacrificed his life to save him one by one.
Jia Rong understood what Liu Si meant and nodded and said, "As long as the two love each other, there is nothing wrong with it. I think I will choose a day to do the wedding, and then let the Liangwang Mansion distribute a house for you in Chang'an, Luyang, and Miss Yun will stay in Chang'an."
After Liu Si and Yun Meng got married, it must be easier for the two to cooperate. It is also difficult for the Yun family to get some privileges from the Xiliang Army through their daughter's channels. Liu Si deeply understands some of the rules of the Xiliang Army and will definitely not do anything that violates the law and discipline. It is to leave Yun Meng in Chang'an. Because Jia Rong realized that Yun Meng is not as simple as she seems, and it is enough to leave the affairs of the Western Regions to Liu Si alone.
"Thank you, Lord." Liu Si's face turned red and he had been wandering for so many years. From an unknown yellow scarf leader to now, only he knew the suffering he had experienced, but he didn't expect that he would have a family.
"Well, let's not talk about these things. In the future, you will report the situation in the Western Regions to the military division and Lord Zhang, and we will continue to drink."
After the capture of Luoyang, Jia Rong transferred some of the industries of the Western Liang Army to Luyang, where there are 40,000 troops guarded by Zhao Yun. Even if Cao Cao has 100,000 soldiers and horses, it is difficult to get a bargain. The geographical location of Luoyang is very important. After the creation of the emperors of the Han Dynasty, Chang'an, which is not a short-term development, can be compared and closer. In the hinterland of the Central Plains, it is also much more convenient to do business.
The cement roads are formed under the construction of slaves. It will take less than half a year to completely open the area between Luyang and Chang'an, and the transportation of materials will become easier and faster.
Slaves are also a major feature of the Xiliang army. If there is a war, there will be prisoners, and the enemies captured by the Xiliang army are selected by the generals who have the ability to be selected in the army. Other prisoners have to work for a period of time to recover their freedom, and they have become slaves. The cement road is even sometimes used to repair. The slaves used to build houses and strengthen the city are slaves. If a slave wants to regain his freedom, he only needs two years of work. As long as he behaves properly, he can get a sum of money.
Not only did the Xiliang Army use cement roads, but the princes of the Central Plains also began to build cement roads after hearing the merchants report on the cement road near Chang'an. Anyway, there are many funds for building roads. It is also good to use it to build cement roads. It is not easy to feel the bumpy feeling when the carriage is driving on the cement.
To Jia Rong's expectation, Cao's envoys and Yuan Shao's envoys came to Chang'an. Unlike Cao's envoys, Jizhou's envoys strengthened their relationship with the Xiliang Army. After all, the previous cooperation between the two sides made Cao Cao suffer a big loss, which can be said to be a true ally, and Yuan Shao also had sufficient reasons to believe that Jia Rong would not offend him and Cao Cao Cao at the same time. After all, the two princes united, even if the Xiliang army wanted to go to war, they had to weigh it.
After the Battle of Luoyang, Cao Cao did not have too blind self-confidence. The main reason is that the recovery speed of the Xiliang army is too shocking. The consumption of a battle is extremely huge for a prince, especially under the siege, while the Xiliang army can gather supplies in a short time.
"King Liang, Duke Wei sent Xun here for the alliance between the two armies." Xun You stood at the bottom and said neither humble nor arrogant.
Jia Rongwei nodded inexplicably, which is this temperament, which is not comparable to the envoys of Jizhou. Xun You is worthy of Wang Zuo's talent. He also has some envy of Cao Cao's good luck in his heart. He can get a counselor such as Xun Yuyou's talent, and most of his talents are from the schools of the Xiliang Army, and these Compared with talents, there must be a gap, but this gap will become smaller and smaller under the grinding of time. There is a saying in later generations that young people are strong, and most of the officials under the Xiliang Army are young people. Maybe they lack experience at the beginning, but they do not lack enterprising spirit and have other princes. The binding of the frame, the ability will be further expanded.
"Bold, when I saw King Liang, I didn't salute him. I came to pull him out and beheaded him." A bodyguard came forward and shouted.
Xun You said without changing his face, "The Duke of Wei and the King of Liang are both ministers of the Han Dynasty, and in terms of strength, our army is not as good as the Xiliang army. What's the reason to worship it?"
Jia Rong waved his hand to signal the bodyguard to go down. He looked at Xun You and smiled and said, "I've heard the name of Lord Xun for a long time. Today, it's really a dragon and phoenix among people. It will be easier for Meng De to help you and achieve great things. I don't know why Meng De is willing to let you go to Chang'an. Aren't you afraid that I will detain you in the city and let him Lose an arm."
Xun You said indifferently, "Xun believes that King Liang will not do this. The two countries are at war, and they will not be killed. What's more, Xun is just an unknown person under the command of the Duke of Wei. How is it worthy of King Liang to do this?" This is also true and false. There is no doubt about Xun You's talent, but it can't be reused under Cao Cao's men. The main reason is that this person is dedicated to the rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty. In those years, Cao Cao was resistant to the way of the Han Emperor, and there were a lot of discord between the emperors and ministers. Take Cao Cao as the Duke of Wei as an example, Xun You was against it. Of.
Jia Rong smiled and said, "Lord Xun, why do you have to be arrogant? Even in the Xiliang army, there are few people who can compare with your talent." Naturally, he knew some of the situation of Xun You under Cao Cao's command, and also gave birth to the idea of pulling Xun You under his command. He could get the help of such a counselor, which not only weakened Cao Jun's strength, but also added two words.
"The heart of King Liang, Xun's heart is over. This time he came here to discuss the alliance between the two armies." Xun You refused Jia Rong's kindness, but his heart was slightly shaken, but after thinking of Jia Rong's behavior, his heart became more determined. If Cao Cao was a little disobeying the Han Emperor, then Jia Rong was a true traitor in his eyes.
Jia Rong was very strange. On that day, under the city of Luoyang, Cao Cao said that he had vowed that he would find the field on the Xiliang army. Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, an envoy came to Chang'an, and it was for the purpose of the alliance. Did Cao Cao want to lower the vigilance of the Xiliang army and steal Attack on Luoyang.
He shook his head slightly and denied the idea in his heart. Cao Cao would definitely not take the initiative to fight against the Xiliang Army. Before the Central Plains and other princes such as Liu Biao and Yuan Shao were not pacified, the battle with the Xiliang Army would only be delayed and the loss of Luoyang, but it made Cao Cao's plan a little chaotic. The intention was to include Qingzhou in the palm of first, and then Gradually, Yuan Shao's power was swallowed up and slowly developed.
However, what Jia Rong is most fearless now is fighting. There is no food and fodder in the warehouse, but there are countless merchants under his rule. As long as Cao Cao dares to invade, Jia Rong will collect money and food from all the people and merchants in the name of defending his homeland. Up to now, the Xiliang Army is no longer simply fighting with the enemy. It is so easy for human soldiers to fight, but the other party's soldiers are the enemy of all the people, merchants and the army under the Xiliang army.
"I will discuss this matter with my courtiers. Lord Xun will live in the city for the time being and experience the life in Chang'an. It's better to buy something back and let your courtiers in Yanzhou also see Chang'an's moonlight cup and other things." Jia Rong's tone is quite proud. The things sold in Chang'an City are very popular in Han, mainly because of its good quality and low price. After several changes of hands, the price naturally rises. Therefore, some rich people would rather spend more money and come to Chang'an in person. They can not only experience the customs of Chang'an, but also buy it. Buy good things.
"Thank you, Liang Wang, for your heart." Xun You arched his hand.
Unlike Xun You, Yuan Shaojun's envoy was judged and matched. When he saw that Jia Rong called him a humble position, the two sides are now in the ally stage. Naturally, Yuan Shao did not want to affect the two families because of some bad actions of the envoys. When he left, he also told him in all kinds of ways.
The trial match is under Yuan Shao's account, which is also a great figure. Previously, the trial match has been envoted to the Xiliang Army, and Jia Rong also showed a lot of appreciation between words. However, the trial match is a person who ends from scratch and does not pay much attention to Jia Rong.
"I pay a visit to the King of Liang." Although he was very disdainful of this practice in his heart, he had to suppress his dissatisfaction at the bottom of his heart when he thought of the master's instructions when he was about to leave.
"Your Excellency, get up. After a few years, your demeanor is still the same." Jia Rong said with a smile.
"It's not comparable to the Liang King. He has heroic soldiers in his hands, and he governs the people, and now he has a new land of Luyang." Examine the hand-to-hand.
"Jizhou has also gained a lot this year. The harvest in the field is very good. Go back and ask when your master owes me money back. You can't put it off again and again." Jia Rong said, "There are also so many people waiting to eat under me. If anyone wants weapons on credit, how can they do business?"
The judge's face changed again and again. He arched his hand and said, "King Liang, although Jizhou is in good this year, the harvest of the people under his rule is not very good. Moreover, in order to support King Liang, he launched a battle against Cao's army in Qingzhou and lost a lot of grain and materials, so he can't pay it off. Please ask King Liang for some time."
