Chapter 268: Father and Daughter (Part 2)(1/2)
Hearing the scolding voice of his daughter, Beigong Boyu did not speak, but just lowered his head, and the divine light in his eyes gradually disappeared.
"You should know that I have my reasons for doing this."
After a long time, Beigong Boyu looked back, his eyes fell on Beigong Liulu, and he spoke softly.
Hearing this, Beigong Liulu did not answer, but stared at his father quietly with a pair of eyes, with a look of heartache between his eyebrows.
After a long while, he shook his head, with a bitter smile on his face.
"Difficulties? What difficulties? Is it for the future of Xiqiang or for the future of the Beigong family?"
"For the sake of great justice, we sacrifice small feelings. Therefore, in your eyes, family and relatives are just a drag and a bargaining chip for use, right?"
Beigong Liulu stared at his father, and bursts of roars burst out from his mouth, like a wounded lion, roaring silently at the sky.
What filled her heart was helplessness and anger towards the world.
Facing Beigong Liulu's roar, Beigong Boyu lowered his head, knowing that he was in the wrong, but he did not dare to say a word.
He just lowered his head and did not look at his daughter.
For a moment, all that came back to my mind were the memories from that year.
At that time, the Beigong family was not the largest aristocratic clan in Xiqiang, and Dong Zhuo was not the governor of Xiliang, but an unknown figure in the Xiliang army.
The two of them met at a young age and became close friends and brothers.
During that time, the two supported each other. Dong Zhuo helped Beigong Boyu get rid of some hostile forces among the Xiqiang, while Beigong Boyu temporarily sent some information to Dong Zhuo.
Therefore, Dong Zhuo's attacks were basically triumphant.
Relying on his military exploits, Dong Zhuo climbed up the Xiliang army step by step, while Beigong Boyu gradually established a foothold in the Xiqiang tribe.
Gradually, one of them became the leading patriarch in the entire Xiqiang tribe, and the other became the governor of Xiliang. They wanted to go further, but due to geographical restrictions, they could not make any further progress.
However, Beigong Boyu is still extremely satisfied with the current situation in Xiqiang and has no other ideas.
However, although Beigong Boyu was content with the status quo, Dong Zhuo's ambitions never stopped.
Just a few years ago, Dong Zhuo found himself and proposed the idea of letting the Xiqiang rebel, join forces with the Xiliang landlords, occupy Xiliang, proclaim themselves king, and march into the Central Plains.
When Beigong Boyu heard this idea, he was shocked at first. Dong Zhuo was shocked by these words.
But after a moment of shock, something moved.
No matter how high his status is in Xiqiang, it is only limited to Xiqiang.
Compared with the Central Plains, Xiqiang is still too backward.
And his yearning for the prosperous Central Plains does not last for a day or two.
After hearing the idea proposed by Dong Zhuo, he immediately agreed.
But his reason still allowed him to restrain himself, and he just asked Dong Zhuo if he had made a complete plan.
After Dong Zhuo came up with an almost perfect plan, he was moved.
I even agreed to it on the same day.
In that plan, Beigong Liulu was an extremely important link.
Using Beigong Liulu as a breakthrough point, we were able to find a suitable excuse to attack Xiliang. Even if we were defeated in the end, we could still have an excuse.
However, according to their original plan, after he decided to attack Xiliang, Dong Zhuo would hand over all the military defense plans of Xiliang to him. Even when he moved the rebellion, Dong Zhuo would take action and lead the Xiliang under his control.
The soldiers coordinated and combined their efforts to capture Xiliang in a short time!
This was their original plan.
However, as things develop, not everything goes according to plan.
At least, Dong Zhuo didn't.
Or, it should be said that Dong Zhuo betrayed his trust.
When he should have taken action to encircle Xiliang, Dong Zhuo chose to watch on the sidelines and even sent soldiers to occupy several important passes.
When Beigong Boyu sent soldiers to attack, they were directly destroyed by Dong Zhuo's regiment.
Even the people he sent to contact Dong Zhuo privately never returned.
From that moment on, Beigong Boyu knew that he was being tricked by this "good brother".
In other words, he completely fell into the opponent's plan!
Anger exists, but Beigong Boyu also knows that anger at this time will not help at all.
Now, he has an arrow ready to shoot.
Since Xiqiang's rebellion has been launched, it cannot be stopped at will unless he has a legitimate reason.
After all, although he is the leader, it does not mean that the entire Xiqiang tribe will listen to him.
Most of the time, he still needs to consider the opinions of the tribal leaders.
Since I couldn't stop, I had no choice but to rush forward without hesitation.
Fortunately, those who have had contact with the Xiqiang on weekdays include Bian Zhang, Li Wenhou, Song Yang and others, in addition to Dong Zhuo.
After sending envoys to lobby, these people readily agreed to the rebellion.
After all, the current imperial court is rotten to the core.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion swept across the Central Plains, and the court was already in dire straits, so how could it have any extra time to take care of them?
Moreover, as long as they can occupy Xiliang and establish themselves as kings, they can then capture Bingzhou, take only Sili, and capture Luoyang!
Xiliang is barren, but in terms of wealth, how can it compare with the Central Plains?
These aristocratic families have been coveting the land of the Central Plains for a long time, but they just lack the opportunity.
Beigong Boyu's words just gave them the opportunity.
So, after hearing Beigong Boyu's proposal and seeing the power of the Xiqiang Jingqi, they hit it off and directly chose to join forces with Beigong Boyu to capture Xiliang.
Therefore, the current situation has emerged.
However, Xiliang's defensive strength was far stronger than they imagined, and it was as if they already knew their plan.
Even if they joined forces and used deliberate calculations and unintentional measures to attack the enemy unprepared and unexpectedly, they still did not capture much of Xiliang's territory.
On the contrary, after Huangfu Song arrived, he was constantly counterattacked and the scope of his campaign was limited, so he was pushed back.
This has resulted in the current stalemate.
After these days of fighting, Beigong Boyu finally guessed what Dong Zhuo was planning.
That guy has no intention of occupying Xiliang and making himself king.
In other words, he had no intention of joining forces with him to become king.
He used himself to incite himself and a group of landlords from Xiliang aristocratic families to rebel, and then used the name of the court to annihilate himself and others.
Once successful, Dong Zhuo will no longer have any constraints in Xiliang.
By then, he will be the uncrowned king of Xiliang.
At that time, what difference does it make whether he is really king or not?
This is Dong Zhuo's plan.
As for whether the Xiliang rebel alliance can withstand the imperial encirclement and suppression.
Is it really possible to occupy the land of Xiliang and become king?
How could Dong Zhuo, who had long been familiar with all the forces in Xiliang, know this?
All of this is just part of his calculation.
As for him, Beigong Boyu is a loser.
A complete loser.
Not only was the family relationship ruined, but the entire Beigong family and the entire Xiqiang family were also ruined!
She had no shame to look at Beigong Liulu anymore, but stared at Xiao Wen quietly with her eyes, waiting for Xiao Wen's reply.
Xiao Wen saw this scene of "father and daughter grudges" in his eyes, and there was no emotion on his face. He just glanced at Beigong Boyu meaningfully, then nodded and replied: "I can agree to your request. you."
"If she is willing to leave, I will let her go free."
"If she doesn't want to, she can still stay in the mansion and be a maid in charge."
"I won't say that I am rich and powerful, but at least I will have enough food and clothing, and everything will be worry-free."
"Thank you General!"
Beigong Boyu endured the pain, got up from the ground, and bowed deeply to Xiao Wen.
"It doesn't matter, everyone just takes what they need." Xiao Wenyan said.
Staring at Beigong Boyu, watching the other party swear an oath with his inner demons, and after perfecting the oath, Xiao Wen just put away the earth-shattering gun, and then walked to Shen Shuyi:
"It's a pleasure to cooperate. We each get what we need. Next, you take him back to Xiqiang, and you just need to cooperate with him in subsequent actions."
