Becoming a father in the film and television industry: starting with Xu Huanshan
Chapter 209: Fighting for Central Plains.
In fact, Xu Wenhao's arrangement has two sides, if Huangfu Song goes with his wife and children.
Then Xu Wenhao would have to arrange for his personal soldiers to follow him and get rid of him if the situation went wrong.
If he was sensible and left his wife and children in Luoyang, it would mean that he really wanted to leave wealth for his children and grandchildren, and Xu Wenhao would not have to worry too much.
"I am not going on a trip, so I will not bring my wife and children with me. I hope that the general will consider that I have made no contributions but have worked hard and give me some care."
Huangfu Song was also a general-level official, so he certainly understood all these twists and turns, and immediately expressed his position.
"Okay, go down and prepare first. I will arrange for you to set off in a month."
Xu Wenhao waved his hand, indicating that Huangfu Song could go down and explain these things to his family.
"Here!"
Before leaving, Huangfu Song also bowed respectfully to Xu Wenhao.
He understood that Xu Wenhao was truly doing good for the Han Dynasty, otherwise he would not have sent 50,000 troops to the Western Regions Chief Secretary's Mansion during this period of strife among heroes.
After Huangfu Song's problem was solved, Xu Wenhao had to explain things to Xu Chu, mainly because he was worried that Xu Chu had hit him too hard...
Gongsun Zan was like this a few years ago, and so was Xu Wenhao in Bingzhou.
It is possible that after Xu Chu arrives at the Western Regions Chief Secretary's Mansion, he might get carried away and lead his army directly to a place where Xu Wenhao cannot support him. That would be troublesome.
"General, don't worry, I'm not really stupid."
"This time when I go to the Western Region Chief's Mansion, I will honestly hold my ground there. At most, I will expand outward by a few dozen miles to collect the necessary information."
Xu Wenhao was worried about Xu Chu, but Xu Chu was quite sensible and quickly told him everything, which showed that he already had a plan in mind.
Of course Xu Wenhao couldn't help but explain this matter to Xu Chu first, and he also needed him to be mentally prepared, so he had him prepared a long time ago.
It's just that they lacked a deputy general who could help Xu Chu, and they had to wait for the right opportunity. But now that all the princes are competing for supremacy in the Central Plains, it won't be a big deal for Xu Chu to lead an army of 50,000 to the Western Regions Chief Secretary's Mansion.
After all, they were fighting among themselves, so how could they possibly form the Eighteen Princes again?
In this way, in the second half of 190, Xu Chu led an army of to the Western Regions Chief Secretary's Mansion. After arriving in Chang'an along the way, he would also add infantry and some construction workers. When he arrived in Liangzhou and other places, he would add another cavalry, totaling troops.
While Xu Wenhao was working, the others were not idle either.
Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou, treated Cao Cao's father Cao Song with courtesy, hoping to curry favor with Cao Cao and ensure the safety of Xuzhou.
Unexpectedly, his plan backfired and the situation changed immediately. On his way out, Cao Song was murdered by the officers who were protecting him for money.
When the news of Cao Song's murder came, Cao Cao was heartbroken, but in fact he was a little happy inside.
Only such a reason would give him the opportunity to take action. After all, Xuzhou was next to Yanzhou where he was, but Cao Cao would not attack him without reason.
The princes at this time still care about excuses. If you hit someone without an excuse, others will have to help you, and the more you hit, the more enemies you will have.
On the contrary, Cao Cao had the excuse of avenging his father and wanted to take action in Xuzhou, so naturally, others could not say much.
Tao Qian wore mourning clothes and led his son to plead guilty, but Cao Cao was unmoved and declared that he would take Xuzhou in three days.
Tao Qian realized that Cao Cao's revenge was fake and his intention to take the city was real, so he sent letters to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others to beg for help. However, these people had the same attitude, making false excuses and just waiting to see the outcome.
After all, everyone knew that Cao Cao was not well-off, so he planned to let the two families fight first and then reap the benefits.
At the same time, Yuan Shao had already mobilized his troops, planning to take Youzhou and move to Liaodong, so he naturally would not care about Cao Cao.
He felt from the bottom of his heart that the only family that could compete with Xu Wenhao in the end was the Yuan family, which had been a family of three generations.
But Yuan Shao didn't want to take care of Xuzhou, but someone did!
Liu Bei, who had surrendered to Gongsun Zan, the governor of Beiping, strongly advised the emperor to rescue Tao Qian. However, Gongsun Zan was himself dealing with the offensive of the Yuan family, so how could he send troops to support Xuzhou? So he politely declined Liu Bei's proposal.
Helpless Liu Bei led Guan, Zhang and only a thousand or so subordinates and rushed to Xuzhou overnight.
Tao Qian was deeply moved by Liu Bei's righteous act and wanted to give Xuzhou to Liu Bei.
But Liu Bei was no fool. He knew that he only had so many men and could survive if he took Xuzhou, so he decisively refused.
"Brother, you are such a fool. You just say you don't want such a big piece of land in Xuzhou."
Zhang Fei was a outspoken person and he started complaining as soon as he returned to the tent.
"Yes, big brother, you came all the way here to help Lord Tao. Now Lord Tao wants to step down and let someone else take over. Why are you refusing?"
Although Guan Yu was not as excited as Zhang Fei, he didn't quite understand it either.
"Second brother, third brother, I would rather die than take advantage of someone's misfortune to do such an unrighteous thing. Don't mention this matter again!"
Of course Liu Bei would not be foolish enough to analyze the situation to his two sworn brothers, but instead he made a false remark.
"Brother! We are confused!"
When Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard Liu Bei's words, they immediately felt ashamed and quickly apologized.
"It's okay. Second and third brothers, you are only doing this for my own good. Let's help Lord Tao defend Xuzhou. We can talk about other things later."
Liu Bei was very satisfied to see the performance of his second and third brothers. He nodded and planned to plan another matter, which was about the famous Mi family in Xuzhou.
Mi Zhu was a wealthy businessman in Xuzhou. His ancestors had been engaged in farming for generations and had nearly 10,000 servants and guests, with assets worth over 100 million. Later, he was appointed as a deputy driver by Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou.
In the first year of Jian'an (196 AD), Lu Bu took advantage of the stalemate between Liu Bei and Yuan Shu to launch a surprise attack on Xia Pi and captured Liu Bei's wife.
Liu Bei had no choice but to stay in Haixi County of Guangling Prefecture. Mi Zhu specially married his sister to Liu Bei and provided 2,000 servants and gold, silver and silk to support Liu Bei's army, which helped Liu Bei regain his spirits in the face of danger.
Later, Cao Cao wanted to recommend Mi Zhu as the governor of Ying County and his brother Mi Fang as the prime minister of Pengcheng, but Zhu and Mi Fang refused and decided to follow Liu Bei.
Xuzhou can be said to be the key to Liu Bei's rise, and the main reason for it was Mi Zhu.
If it weren't for Mi Zhu's support, he wouldn't have had the capital to go to Jingzhou and rise again after Xuzhou, and finally have the capital to join forces with Eastern Wu to burn down Chibi.
It's a pity that how could Liu Bei's plan compare to that of a time traveler like Xu Wenhao.
Mi family.
"Brother, what did the general say?"
Mi Fang asked excitedly.
The main thing was that two days ago, several messengers came from Luoyang and brought a letter to Mi Zhu, and the person who wrote the letter was naturally Xu Wenhao.
He was not trying to save Xuzhou, but to invite the Mi family to develop in Luoyang, and at the same time escape from the quagmire of Xuzhou which was about to be embroiled in war.
Don't think that Mi Zhu really admired Liu Bei's loyalty. He just wanted to use Liu Bei to help the Mi family advance further.
Now that Xu Wenhao, a general with hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command, has invited us, it is not difficult to make a choice.
What's more, if he refused, would Xu Wenhao be able to spare the Mi family in the future?
Cao Cao's 10 troops now scare Xuzhou into submission, let alone Xu Wenhao who has hundreds of thousands of troops.
