Chapter 971 Brotherhood is as precious as gold
After listening to Yu Jin's explanation, Cao Ren felt both sad and moved. He was mixed and didn't know what to say.
Three days ago, Cao Ren planned to commit suicide in the tent and thanked Cao Gong after Yu Jin took over the rest of the surrender. As a result, Yu Jin saw Cao Ren's desire to die, so he advised him to rest in the tent. Soon after, he drank a bowl of porridge sent by his personal soldiers. Then when he woke up, he saw himself lying in the carriage, while Yu Jin was by his side.
Cao Ren didn't expect that Yu Jin saw his desire to die, and he didn't expect that Yu Jin would negotiate terms with Zhao Yun under his banner in order to make him have a reason to survive. What Cao Ren didn't expect most was that Zhao Yun actually agreed to Yu Jin's conditions!
Although it was not the beginning of the 50,000 troops escorting Cao's army to the Western Regions, they dragged Xiongwu Army from the Yanzhou battlefield to the Western Regions, and they did not return until the end of the Central Plains War. However, this is indeed worthy of Cao Cao. Who dares to say that with 50,000 infantry, they can defeat a first-class strong army like the Jin Xiongwu Army?
Now that things have come to this point, Cao Ren can no longer let Yu Jin down, so he said, "Brother Wenze, I want to thank you for leaving me with such a cheap life. Now we are far away from the Central Plains, which saves a lot of troubles. I just don't know what the outcome of Cao Gong will be in the future?"
Yu Jin was obviously more optimistic than Cao Ren. He replied easily: "Not to say that when I negotiated with Zhao Zilong, the pressure I was under seemed to be the heaviest in my life! Zhao Zilong was indeed a majestic man like a god descending to earth. Now I think about it. I have been thinking about it repeatedly on the Western Regions and the Northeast, but in the end I chose to go to the Western Regions. Do you know why?"
Seeing that Yu Jin did not answer his question positively, Cao Ren was not in a hurry. He asked Yu Jin a little lazy and said, "But why?"
Yu Jin said with a longing look on his face: "Zi Xiaokang once heard that after Zhang Ren, the governor of the Xichuan army, was captured, he was now entrusted by Zhao Guochang to open up the western land? Our 50,000 brothers are not comparable to those of the Xichuan soldiers. As long as we simply rest and get rid of the shadow of Dunqiu's defeat, we can become a strong soldier! As long as we make military achievements for Zhao Guochang in the western land, he will naturally consider treating Cao Gong well, hoping that more imperial troops will turn to his command and serve him from now on. In this way, can we achieve both ends?"
Cao Ren was infected by Yu Jin's emotions and his face became much better, so he said, "While going to the extreme west to explore, although it is a little harder, he can continue to gallop on the battlefield, and he doesn't have to face the Han robes. It's a good way out! In the past, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Pang Ji and others under Yuan Shao seemed to have gone to the Western Regions first, and now they all have the heavy responsibilities and have also saved the Yuan clan?"
Yu Jin nodded repeatedly and comforted Cao Ren and said, "That's the truth! You and my brother may not be as strong as Yan Liang and Wen Chou, but if it is better than the strategy of starting a military strategy, they will be hard to match! Xu Rong, the chief general of the Kunlun Army, has ordinary force, but now he is highly valued by Zhao Guochang. It can be seen that the chief employed by the King of Pacification is the commanding ability of the general. When Zixiao and I arrived in the Western Regions, they must compete with Zhang Renyi, and we must not lose our majesty!"
The Cao army, who had been completely disarmed, went north to Huguan under the escort of the Xiongwu Army who had been armed to the teeth, first went north to Huguan, then went west from Huguan to Jinyang, and then walked along the official road leading to the Western Regions, and could successfully arrive in the Western Regions within two months.
Now, the tranquil tranquility of the Jin State to the Western Regions is unbelievable. The horse bandits and rebel Qiang people who had plagued and plagued the Xiliang region in the past have long disappeared. Although the number of 10,000 Huang Xuan cavalry left by the Dingyuan Army in the mighty Guzang sounds not very exaggerated, it is enough to ensure the peace of this Golden Avenue.
After continuous growth, the Huangxuan clan has now reached 400,000 people. Although it is still incomparable to the Han people of Jin and Liang, it is also a very important ethnic group in the north. This ethnic group has now abandoned all the messy beliefs, and instead devoted himself to the King of Pingxi Zhao Xing as their god, and since then, it has become Zhao Xing's most loyal follower.
Huang Xuan was an adult man, all of whom were good at riding and shooting, but the 400,000 clan had only a 10,000 cavalry organization. It can be seen how difficult it would be to join Huang Xuan’s cavalry now. Because Hu Cheer always maintained the elegance and purity of this clan, they played a huge role in stabilizing the descendants of the Qiang tribe in Xiliang area. As long as Huang Xuan cavalry guarded Xiliang, no one dared to get up to make trouble or cause trouble.
Zhao Xing, who was in Luoyang, received the battlefield victory sent by Zhao Yun, the Eastern Army, not only applauded, but also said loudly: "Those who know me are the fourth brother!"
Without Zhao Xing's consent, Zhao Yun made the decision to agree to Yu Jin's surrender conditions. After learning about this, Zhao Xing not only did not mean to blame him, but instead praised Zhao Yun's decisive attitude, which shows how deep the trust and friendship of the two brothers are.
Zhao Yun agreed to Yu Jin's conditions at that time, but he was not a sudden urgency. He made such a decision because he made a careful consideration of the situation of the Central Plains War in the future. At the same time, Zhao Yun was also inspired by Zhao Xing's practice of drawing the Canglang Army and the Xiliang Army from the Western Legion.
In the eyes of others, the forces of various legions are under the jurisdiction of the marshal of the route, and they cannot be easily mobilized by crossing the legions. For example, the Canglang Army and the Xiliang Army are elite cavalry members of the boss Guan. Zhao Xing did not even ask, and directly ordered the two troops to go out of Luoyang to support the Eastern Army commanded by Zhao Yun. Although Ma Chao and Zang Ba were happy, who knew if Guan Yu would have any objections?
Similarly, without the consent of Zhao Xing and Guan Yu, Zhao Yun asked 30,000 Xiongwu Army, which did not belong to the Western Regions War Zone, to escort 50,000 Cao's surrendered troops to the Western Regions. Isn't that reasonable?
However, these problems that seem serious to outsiders are not a problem at all between Zhao Xing, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun. In addition to the deep affection between brothers and the deep friendship and no one can compete for you to be higher and lower, the most important thing is that everyone has common wishes and goals!
The Kunlun Army Peace Western Army is now fighting fiercely in Nanyang. In the Western Regions, only the 100,000 "Yizhou Construction Corps" led by Zhang Ren and the 10,000 Han cavalry led by Ma Dai will be subject to Liu Yu's dispatch. If a long time comes, problems will arise. Since the Xiongwu Army has made enough military achievements on the battlefield on the eastern front, and Pang De himself is from Xiliang, the Xiongwu Army also formed an army in the northwest region, so sending the Xiongwu Army to the Western Regions to become the core military force, which is very necessary to control and deter the "Yizhou Construction Corps" and the future "Yanzhou Construction Corps".
In Zhao Yun's opinion, the end of the Central Plains War is not far away. The Eastern Army now has more than enough troops. It is better to prepare for the army to explore the west as soon as possible. Zhao Xing and Guan Yu also understood and supported Zhao Yun's approach of making arrangements in advance. After all, the vast territory of the extreme west is not something that a Western Region corps can afford.
Zhao Xing set a long-term goal a few years ago. Once the Central Plains War is over, the regular troops in the Han Dynasty will be dispatched at least half or even more troops to be sent to the extreme west!
