64, ambition and solicitation

"Yan and you are definitely not from the enemy country!"
Xi Zhicai heard Yan Xing’s sincere and earnest words and knew that Yan Xing had some more words. He did not answer immediately, but waited quietly for Yan Xing’s following.
"I guess I already know who I am after my remarks. Then I will not hide it from you. I am not a horse seller in the north, but a commander from Dongying who came from Luoyang to the east. When I was in Luoyang, I learned about Xijun's talent from Liu Zigao. Therefore, the soldiers left Yangcheng and came to see Xijun, intending to recruit Xijun to plan for our camp. Xijun is a talented hero in Yingchuan. I also know a little about the talent and ambition in my heart. Therefore, I ask you not to refuse first. After I express my ambitions in my heart, you will make a decision to seize today's request!"
Xi Zhicai nodded when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at Yan Xinggao in his heart. The person in front of him was open-minded. He was not only tolerant of his own temptation and ridicule, but also dared to talk about his purpose and ambitions in his actions. Combined with yesterday's record of changing hands in a blink of an eye, Yangcheng had indeed hidden a dragon and snake in this Dong camp.
When Yan Xing nodded when he saw Xi Zhicai, he also prepared the words in his heart. He looked at Xi Zhicai and began to say:
"Yan was a man from Jincheng, Liangzhou. He loved martial arts since he was a child and also liked to read history books. He drank with the "Shi Gong Shu" and "Shu Han Shu" and "Shu Han" and "Shu Han" and "Shu Han" to drink. He often drank several buckets without getting drunk. He admired the heroic deeds of his predecessors and had the heart to voluntarily serve him. Therefore, in the fourth year of Zhongping, Han Sui's troops were sent out to the Three Guards. Although Yan was in the general trend and was carried over, he also worked hard to make progress. He had nothing to do. If he advances, he would help the world and drive away the evil of the eunuchs. If he retreated, he would only protect his body.
"The Liangzhou coalition forces stopped at the city and each had selfish intentions. Although Yan retreated even though he fought hard, he would not have finished his eggs when he was destroyed. After repeated twists and turns, he was captured and threw himself into Dong's camp. He followed the army to Luoyang Kyoto. Later, he made great achievements and was promoted to the position of lieutenant general."
"The current Luoyang court, like the King of Sammi, was guessing yesterday, and was about to move west to Luoyang. The emperor's carriage was probably already set out first. Guandong Prefecture and county are in great power, and it is easy to fight. Compared with the two, it is difficult to distinguish between male and female. By that time, the soldiers and horses of Xiliang were entrenched in Guanzhong. Although it was easy to defend and difficult to attack according to the dangers of the Guhan, Guandong Prefecture and county were also in great difficulty, and they would all set up Fang Bo and control one side."
"The east and west soldiers confront each other, and the county is constantly attacking each other. This situation is a sign of chaos in the world and a chasing victory in the Central Plains. Although Yan is a person from the border, he also has the intention to save the country and safeguard the people. From Longxi to Sanfu, and then from Sanfu to Luoyang, the places he sees are all difficult to live in, and all industries are declining, and nine out of ten houses are scarce. In this chaotic world, although Yan is not talented, she also intends to suppress the rebellion and help the dangers and protect the people. Those who are worried are short-sighted and may find it difficult to help. She is talented and talented, and although she is trapped in the market, she has the ambition to assist the country. Therefore, Yan asks Xiong to help me and help the world together!"
This is the way out that Yan Xing planned for himself after combining with the prophet. He uncovered in front of Xi Zhicai without any hiding his own selfishness.
Although the coalition forces against Dong are very powerful, crossing states and counties, and the Xiliang soldiers and horses in Luoyang City are also elite troops with strong troops, Yan Xing has asserted in advance that the two sides who attack each other will eventually become in a confrontation between the east and west because of Dong Zhuo's move to the court westward to Chang'an.
By that time, the Xiliang soldiers and horses would retreat to the Guanxi land, and the soldiers and horses that were fighting against Dong in Guandong would begin to split, and each would seize the same side and attack each other.
The foundation of the Han Empire has declined, and the next trend of the world is another scene of heroes competing for hegemony in the Central Plains.
Yan Xing wanted to make a difference in the separatist rule of the heroes, so he came to find Xi Zhicai and wanted him to assist him and achieve great achievements.
With this keen vision and outstanding ambition, Xi Zhi couldn't help but feel shocked after listening to it. This person really had a heroic posture. Although he was dormant in the Dongying camp, the dragon and the snake were not things in the pool. If this is said, it would coincide with the storm and clouds, then it would naturally be the time when the hidden dragon rose and flew high.
But whether it is your own wise master, it is far from enough to focus on your vision and temperament.
Although Yan Xing had the words of the prophet at the moment, it was a bit shocking, but the situation in the words was not without traces. As the saying goes, "The wise man saw it before he was born, and the foolish man secretly accomplished things." Xi Zhicai was not an ordinary person. He pondered for a while, absorbed the essence of Yan's words, sorted out his own ideas, and then he slowly asked:
"If the trend of the world is as you said, it must be a turmoil in all directions and endless wars. Since Yan Jun intends to suppress the rebellion and help the danger and protect the country and the people, he does not know how to act?"
Xi Zhicai did not argue with Yan Xing about who wins and loses the Luoyang court and the Dong coalition forces, and whether they will fall into confrontation. Yan Xing came from Luoyang and knew more about the Luoyang court and more about the military movements of the Guandong coalition forces. Even if the predictions he made were not accurate, Xi Zhicai would not be aimless and refute them.
So he seized the key points of where Yan Xing would go after the chaos in the world and asked Yan Xing how he would act.
In the face of Xi Zhicai's inquiry, Yan Xing also showed solemnity. He wanted to stand out in this chaos, which was the most test of a person's comprehensive elements such as predictive vision, his skills in acting, and his grasp of opportunities. This is not just a matter of talking about things that can make a small show with the prophet.
Dong Zhuo moved west to the court and stayed in Luoyang himself, trying to fight against Dong's coalition forces with Guandong to fight against the male and female forces. What was the outcome? Yan Xing only knew that there would be a victory or defeat between each other, and no one could completely take over the opponent.
After Dong Zhuo retreated to Chang'an, Yan Xing had no impression of how the Dong army camp was arranged, and the details were details.
But judging from the current situation, after Dong Zhuo retreated to Guanzhong, he would inevitably set up heavy troops to defend Hedong and Hongnong County. Hedong County and Sanfu stood together. Entering Guanzhong from Hedong, you only need to seize the ferry of the river and then drive directly from Zuo Fengyi to Chang'an. Since Hongnong County moved eastward of Hangu Guan during the Qin Dynasty, Hongnong County has become the eastern barrier of Guanzhong.
In addition, after Dong Zhuo's camp retreated into Chang'an, wise men such as Li Ru and Jia Xu would definitely look to the long-term and offer advice to Dong Zhuo to advance Liangzhou and Yizhou. If Dong Zhuo intends to make a move, this is also an opportunity for Yan Xing to seek external command of the army.
Of course, Yan Xing was actually inclined toward Hedong. This place is not like Hongnong and Henan, sandwiched between Guandong Prefecture and Dong Zhuo’s camp. It can not only avoid the sharpness of the Guandong princes, but also not be too wary of the generals in Dong Zhuo’s camp being stabbed from behind. Geographically, they are led by mountains and rivers, which is conducive to defense, and also has the benefits of salt, iron, grain and grain. They can accumulate strength and continue to grow. They can conquer Hanoi and Henan counties to the east, south, and collect good horses and pawns from other places to the north.
This land can be called "Little Guanzhong", because Yan set his own foundation. In addition, Niu Fu, who was guarding Hedong, was not good at military affairs, so he was mediocre. His lord could not defend it. Yan Xing could find an opportunity to take it for himself.
Others, such as the two places of Yizhou and Liangzhou, have their own shortcomings. Although Yizhou is rich in money and grain, it is blocked by mountains and rivers and is far away, so it cannot focus on the Central Plains to compete. Although Liangzhou has good horses and strong soldiers, the county is divided, and the people's livelihood is declining. Han Sui, Ma Teng and others are also troubled, so it is not easy to seek.
Since Yan Xing had a certain plan in his mind, he spoke calmly and orderly at this time.
"Yan is a commander, and can protect the safety of a place in the east of the city. If it is one or two thousand stones, it will protect the peace of a county and the peace of the people. If it is a magistrate, it will protect the peace of a state. Therefore, Yan should seek to guard a place outside to fulfill the ambition in his heart."
Now that I have not started to do the work outside Hedong, Yan Xing has not said it directly. After listening to Xi Zhi, he did not argue, but pondered for a while before slowly saying:
"Yan Jun's ambition is very admirable, but the situation in the world is changing. How could this kind of drunkard be able to play the role of a drunkard, and he would be so arrogant to speak out, but he is lazy by nature and unsatisfactory. I am afraid that Yan Jun wanted to get a thousand-mile horse, but he mistook my little donkey."
After all, Xi Zhicai's words were politely rejected. Yan Xing couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Indeed, before he gained a reputation and territory, he could recruit one or two ordinary scholars for his own use with his status as a commander in the army. However, he was still unattractive to such a talented man who was scattered in the market, waiting for a price, intending to assist the king and dominate the country.
Even though the words of sincere admonition just now touched Xi Zhicai's heart, he had no limits on his words. Xi Zhicai is now in a difficult situation, but he does not have the intention of repaying kindness and helping others and atoneing his sins like Xu Huang. Naturally, he will not rashly enter his camp after listening to his words.
After all, he was not famous enough. Yuan Shao, who is now stationed in Hanoi, can make the scholars in the world return to the world like flowing water. It was the hard work of four generations of the Yuan family in the court. Yuan Shao himself has been conservative for more than ten years and has been respectful to the wise and humble. This capital and this effort are not something ordinary people can possess at the same time.
However, Yan Xing was unwilling to give up the talented talent, Xi Zhicai. Although he had sent spies to Yangdi to spy on the enemy situation in private, he also specifically ordered to pay attention to finding Guo Jia, Yan Xing did not have much hope for this, so Xi Zhi in front of him must be obtained.
"The land of Yuzhou is as Xijun said before, it is the place of the world and the four battles. Yangcheng is the first to be the one that must be won for the east and west. Although Xijun wants to wait for the time, he is under the hut. Can you find peace?"
"Although Yan is dull, there are more than a thousand soldiers who are good at fighting in the camp. Xijun and Zun's wife live in it, as if they are standing in a vast land. The situation in the world is like clouds. Yan is not a wise master, and the person who can help him appear in Xijun's mind will appear. At that time, Yan will definitely send him back with gifts and will never let down the words!"
Yan Xingyu said this, and he had already seen the goal of exploring the masters of all labours and doctors and craftsmen. This time he had to force Xi Zhicai to leave behind. However, Xi Zhicai was not comparable to ordinary poor people after all. Yan Xing still had to treat him with courtesy and found a reason that could barely stand firm. He also promised that when the war was settled, Xi Zhicai was intentionally willing to join the wise master and then send Xi Zhicai and his family away.
After hearing Yan Xing's words, Xi Zhicai did not show any resentment or unhesitation, as if Yan Xing's words were also expected. He smiled faintly and said:
"I was originally a drunkard. As long as there is a good wine treat in the camp like yesterday, the guest will follow the host, follow the good intentions of Yan Jun, and go to the camp to disturb him for a while, what's wrong with this!"
"Li Shi, a drunken disciple of Gaoyang in the former Han Dynasty, was a master of his achievements among the civil and military officials under Emperor Gaozu. He was a great talent. With time, he could show his talent and reputation among the prefectures and counties. Why should he be humble? This kind of drinking and meat treat is naturally treated with the above-mentioned guests. Please give me a gift!"
"Yan Jun, please!"
I also saw the scenery on the mountain and recruited frankly. Although Xi Zhicai did not accept Yan Xing's recruitment immediately, at least he stayed there first. Yan Xing still had confidence and continued to work hard in the future to completely let Xi Zhicai help him.
So Yan Xing and his group, after barely achieving their purpose of climbing, began to return on the same route. The trip down the mountain was faster than going up the mountain, but it took half an hour to get under the hillside, and everyone got on the bus again, got on the horse, and set off to return to the city.
Halfway through the way, Xi Zhicai suddenly lifted the curtain of the car window and said to Yan Xing, who was walking by the side of the car:
Chapter completed!
