Chapter 174 Huayang Four Elements

Mr. Fan said: "Although Nanguan is broken, its city fortress still has its foundation. The Qin people left quickly and it is not very damaged, so they can garrison troops. Moreover, Nanguan overlooks Huayang to the south and Qifeng to the east. It echoes Daliang and is the place where troops are being used.

Ye. It can be done both offensively and defensively."

Zhang Zhuo said: "Nanguan originally stood in the east and looked to the west. Now the Qin people are in the east. Is it okay to occupy Nanguan?"

Mr. Fan said: "Where else can tens of thousands of people be stationed? In Qifeng, between Huayang, only Nanguan is in ruins. Although it is dilapidated, it can still be occupied. The rest is plain, with ditches and no houses.

Be prepared, it’s hard to do anything in a hurry, the only thing you have to do is build fortifications.”

Lord Xinling said: "The only thing I'm concerned about is that Nanguan is as far away from Qifeng as Daliang. Why fight?"

Mr. Fan said: "This battle cannot be achieved by the emperor alone. It must be invincible with the enemy first. It must be diplomatic with South Korea and cultivate harmony internally. It will mislead Qin in many ways and wait for the enemy to win. It cannot be fought in a hurry."

Lord Xinling said: "Wen Daliang has arrived at the army, isn't it because he wants to fight in a hurry?"

Mr. Fan said: "When Lieutenant Daliang arrives at the army, he must be victorious? He is killing our army. It is not the behavior of a man who is good at fighting. This is not the case for the emperor. After getting rid of the old and weak, re-building morale, he gathers grain and fodder to build a high base.

A strong formation must be used to win. Therefore, if you are two or three days away from the enemy, if you are urgent, you can arrive in a day or night. Show the situation to the enemy, and slow down to be calm and unshakable. The people of Qin will definitely change, and I can take advantage of it.

There is a gap."

Mr. Zhongyue said: "With such a prudent trend, we must put grain and fodder first. I hope you will take advantage of it as soon as possible."

Lord Xinling said: "What kind of virtue can there be? We can do this only because of the efforts of all the gentlemen." He looked around and said, "Is there anything left? Would you rather have someone lost?" Everyone knew that the plan was completed, and they all bowed their hands and praised it.

Well, Lord Xinling said: "I feel uneasy about disturbing the clear night. I want to visit the chariot kings in the camp. I would like Mr. Guo, Zhang and Yue to help me. Please do as you please." Everyone said goodbye and left.

Zhang Ye, Mr. Zhongyue and Mr. Guo sat down in front of Lord Xinling and discussed in low voices for a while. Zhang Ye came out and found Lu Bo, and together they went to the camp where the coachmen were camping.

This camp is close to Xinlingjun's camp, and there are many other camps around it. The camp is surrounded by the carriages that come with the team. The curtains sent by Mr. Zhongyue are not separated into separate curtains, but

He was supported on the northwest side, blocking the cool wind for the entire camp. When the soldiers guarding the camp gate saw that it was Zhang Yue and Lu Bo, they did not stop them, but they stopped on their own initiative and said: "Zhang from the yellow man/Lü from the guard."

Sir, I would like to see the owner of the four-row chariot." The four people were each with their own charioteers and husbands, and did not rest in one place. They heard someone talking in front of the camp gate, and everyone looked over. A soldier came in to spread the message.

"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Lu has not seen the four car owners!" The four people stood up quickly, exchanged glances with each other, each gave instructions to their subordinates, and headed for the camp gate.

Both sides received the greetings, and Zhang Noi explained his purpose and said: "General, I am deeply aware of the great righteousness of you gentlemen. I am afraid that the military will be busy during the day, so I would like to thank you sir. I will disturb your peaceful dream, sir, please do not say goodbye!"

The four people were shocked and doubtful, but they all said: "How dare you work as a humble man!" Zhang Noi led the way, and Lu Bo bowed all the way and led the four people to Lord Xinling's tent.

Lord Xinling greeted them in front of the camp gate with a smile on his face, bowed his head three times, and moved the four people to the tent. Mr. Zhongyue and Mr. Guo were already waiting here. When they saw the four people coming, they each greeted them.

A table had been laid out in front of the tent, with east and west facing each other. The four people hurriedly saluted: "How dare we sit across from the general as a commoner?" Although they guessed who the general was, no one knew who the general was, so they could only follow the title.

"General".

Lord Xinling said: "Sir, you have a great sense of righteousness and are diligent in the affairs of the king. You will not shy away from the enemy even if you are in danger. It is all thanks to you that your head is saved. It is time for you to sit on the throne!"

Seeing Lord Xinling speaking in such serious terms, the four of them were even more shocked and doubtful. They even more declined and said, "You are so virtuous, you have insulted the general's reputation."

Lu Bo said: "Don't doubt me, the general is benevolent and righteous, and will not be deceived by the king."

Mr. Zhongyue also asked: "In front of the general, there is no distinction between superiority and inferiority, but brotherhood. The general's servants also sit opposite the general."

Lord Xinling suddenly said: "How can I forget what Wei Zi said? I'll go and ask for Mr. Xiahou later." Then he ran behind the tent, and after a while, he pulled the sleepy Mr. Xiahou over. Mr. Xiahou followed Xinling.

Jun went to meet him halfway, and then returned with the unsealing order. He said nothing during the process and was very low-key. After returning, he settled the horses and fell asleep.

Lord Xinling pulled Mr. Xiahou to the tent and introduced him to both parties. Mr. Xiahou seemed to have just woken up. He hurriedly adjusted his clothes and bowed respectfully. He bowed and gave way, showing off his elegance.

Lord Xinling said: "This time I want to make friends with the chariot dealer. My servant has been charioteer for a long time, and I would like to be in the middle as my prime minister."

Seeing the opportunity quickly, Mr. Zhongyue arrived early and took out a table from the tent and spread it between the two seats. Mr. Xinling saluted again, and under the guidance of Mr. Xiahou, the two groups took their seats. With the guidance of the best man, the four car owners also

He made another gesture and followed Mr. Xiahou's guidance obediently. Lu Bo wanted to accompany Xi Mo, but Zhang, Yue and Guo repeatedly bowed to him, so Lu Bo had no choice but to sit down under Lord Xinling's shoulders.

After sitting down, Mr. Xiahou said: "I am so stubborn in the face of battle. I have little water and no wine. I am not worthy of reward. I would like to be simple."

The four of them clasped their hands and said, "How dare you, a humble concubine?"

Lord Xinling first raised his hands at the banquet and said: "I only accept the king's order to lead a large army, and I am always worried when facing a powerful enemy. With the help of gentlemen, the army will be strong and the powerful enemy will be defeated." He bowed deeply.

The four people on the opposite side all avoided him and said, "How dare we, the humble concubines! The general has an order, and we, the humble concubines, dare not disobey."

Lord Xinling said to Lu Bo: "Every gentleman has contributed a lot to raising food."

Lu Bo said: "The chariot shop has no food, so we need to buy it from the countryside. But the chariots from the chariot shop can be rented by the general."

Lord Xinling looked at Mr. Zhongyue, and Mr. Zhongyue replied: "Buying food is not easy, you must get close to him before you can do it. Sir, do your best, and if you need it, you can pay it all to Uncle Lu." In one sentence, it was established.

Lu Bo's status in the car dealership.

Lord Xinling said: "Gentlemen, I'm very grateful for helping us. I invited you here at night, not for military purposes, but to pay tribute. The army is unruly, the drinks and food are not prepared, and the dishes are not in order, it is difficult to reward me; the music and instruments are not thoughtful.

, Zhong Yu is unprepared, and it is difficult to sing harmoniously with him. But on the bright moon day, chatting becomes wine to help him get excited."

Everyone at the table saluted together: "General Qingya!"

Zhang He said: "The Huayang Captain is the captain of the King of Han, and the one who guards Huayang is also the one who guards Huayang. Mr. Zhu told interesting stories about the Huayang Lieutenant to win a smile."

When Lu Bo heard this, he took the lead and said: "I saw Captain Huayang at the banquet the day before yesterday. He denounced the humble and humble people and dared to approach the scholars." Then he put on a solemn posture and imitated the way of Captain Huayang.

: "Luonai is where the emperor lives, but the rituals and music have collapsed like this! The Zhou people in Ningluo City have fallen to this level, are they inferior to merchants?"

Lu Bo's exaggerated expression really caused smiles to appear on everyone's faces. Zhang asked: "Why did Captain Huayang say this?"

Lu Bodao: "The minister's position is above Mr. Xu, so Huayang Wei said this!"

Everyone laughed. Mr. Xiahou laughed and said: "Hey, how come Mr. Zhang has fallen so low that he is lower than a merchant!" Lu Boxiang said in fear: "I have been a merchant for a long time, and I have little practice in etiquette. I behave carelessly and inappropriately. It is a capital crime!"

"

Lord Xinling smiled and said, "What's wrong with Lord Huayang?"

Perhaps Lu Bo's funny performance triggered Bai Gen's deep inner memories, and he naturally went on to learn: "There is only one thing that a scholar must not keep away from his heart: my ancestors were blood eaters, and he is not comparable to him! He is willing to fall.

God bless you!"

Lu Bo then learned his most touching words: "I can't bear the disrespect of scholars, but don't blame the merchants!"

Mr. Zhongyue asked with great interest: "In Captain Huayang's opinion, what is the etiquette of the table?"

Lu Bodao: "Huayang Wei said that scholars and common people do not sit at the same table, so it is polite. Foreign guests from the Xu family are not allowed to sit on the east side. Mr. Xu will stay with him at the end of the west table."

Everyone laughed again. Mr. Zhongyue asked again: "What kind of banquet is this?"

Bai Gen said: "This is the norm in Huayang. Every time there is a caravan in Huayang, soldiers from the city must be hired to guard the garrison. Based on the value of the goods, one will be drawn out of ten, and one hundred coins will get one soldier to accompany the guard; the soldiers will be eclipsed by one dou.

Money ten.”

Mr. Zhongyue asked: "Is this Huayang's old rule or Wei's new policy?"

Bai Gen said: "It is actually a new policy, but it was established by the old captain and has been implemented for many years."

Mr. Zhongyue wanted to ask the question: "When was it established?"

Bai Gen discussed with the people at the table for a moment and replied: "About the old year and this time."

Chen Hedao: "I am the first of all to do this. I also remember it vividly because I was transporting grain after autumn."

Bazai also said: "We all know this government from Chen Xing. At the beginning of the administration, we all wanted to get relief from the joints. But the old captain insisted on not letting go, the joints were blocked, and a lot of money was wasted!"

Lord Xinling looked at Lu Buwei. This boy had been silent all the time and was willing to stay behind everyone. Seeing Lord Xinling looking at Lu Buwei, Lu Bo shouted, "Buwei is talking about Huayang!"

Lu Buwei stood up from his seat, bowed in greeting, and said: "Young man has no appearance, but I dare to tell you what I know. Although Huayang is a noble man, he is greedy and eats too much, and has no choice in food. He is fat and has little dignity. He only uses lewdness and intimidation to show his superiority."

Generals should know that those who are not angry but powerful are at the top; those who are angry and powerful are in the middle; those who are angry but not powerful are at the bottom. Huayang behaves uncontrollably, moody and angry, but if he wants to establish his power, he will take advantage of the situation and act forcefully, and it will not be long before he does it.

.Huayang is the gateway of Han Dynasty and the importance of border towns. Why should we allow someone who is not powerful and important to guard it?"

The whole audience burst into sighs. Lord Xinling also knelt down and cupped his hands and said, "I don't expect to hear my little brother Jinyu's words. May I ask your family name in your hometown?"

Lu Buwei said: "The Lu family of Wei does not dare to be called a general, so I would like to call him by the humble name 'Buwei'."

Lu Bo said: "Wei Shibai is a concubine. Lu Xingshi is from the Lu family in Luoyang. He is from the same clan. Because Lu Xing was involved in other affairs, he humiliated his younger brother Zhong and appointed him to take charge of it. How can Zhong be so virtuous? So he listens to everything, both small and big.

Buwei."

Bai Gen also said: "Bu Wei is called a concubine, and he is actually the head of the tomb. All matters of the Bai family, whether small or big, must be entrusted to him, and they will be settled properly."

Lu Buwei said: "How can a young man be so virtuous that he is praised by all his fathers?"

Lord Xinling said: "If you don't know Wei Wei, you know what the lieutenant is, and you must know that the king of Han appointed him to guard Huayang. Does he have his own intention?"

Lu Buwei said: "Hua Yang and the world are rushing, and the guard is not powerful or important. Would you rather not guard?"

Lord Xinling's heart tightened and he said, "What do you mean?"
