Chapter 374 The Dumb Wang Kuang

Wang Kuang, courtesy name Gongjie, was a native of Taishan.

Yuan Shaote recruited him to be the prefect of Hanoi to fight against Dong Zhuo, and Wang Kuang rushed over without stopping.

In Zhang Yang's impression, Wang Kuang has always been the image of the big brother, that's why he gave up the position of prefect of Hanoi. If another person came, Zhang Yang would not be so easy to talk to.

When Zhang Yang and Guan Yu arrived at the county mansion, Wang Kuang said he was busy with his affairs and let them hang out for more than half an hour. Not to mention Guan Yu, even Zhang Yang was angry.

Just when Zhang Yang couldn't suppress his anger, Wang Kuang's words appeared: "Two captains, the master of a certain family has an invitation."

"Hmph! Lead the way."

Zhang Yang's anger was not concealed.

Wang Kuang was dealing with government affairs. When he saw Zhang Yang and Guan Yu coming in, he got up quickly and said, "Uncle Zhi, Yun Chang, you guys came here so fast! I thought you would arrive after dark?"

Zhang Yang said: "Dong Zhuo's army is about to cross the river, how dare you be unhappy?"

"Huh? That's true."

Wang Kuang was a little embarrassed by Zhang Yang's choking, and then he smiled and said, "I recruited Uncle Zhi and Yun Chang for this purpose. From the two of you, will the Xiliang army cross the river? When will they cross the river? Where are you crossing the river?"

Zhang Yangzhen had discussed this matter with Guan Yu, and Hua Xiong was stationed in Pingyin County, and the two undoubtedly felt the pressure.

Zhang Yang gave Guan Yu a wink, and Guan Yu stood up and said, "Now neither Yuan Bohai (Yuan Shao) nor my brother have arrived in Hanoi, and we are not on a firm footing. The Xiliang army will definitely cross the river."

Wang Kuang nodded after hearing this, he thought the same way, Xiliang crossing the river is certain, it depends on where they cross from?when crossing?
"As for when to cross? Where? After discussing with Uncle Zhi, I felt that instead of fortifying the river bank everywhere, it would be better to spread horses all over the river. After the Liang army crosses the river, it will be defeated in one fell swoop."

Wang Kuang could only use hehe to respond to Guan Yu's words.

"You two have a good idea, but once the Xiliang army crosses the river, no one can limit the mobility of the cavalry. Of course, I admit that Brother Yun's Xiyuan army can block the iron cavalry of the Xiliang army, but once the Xiliang army disperses, Who can control it?"

What Wang Kuang said was unreasonable, but Guan Yu believed that once the large Xiliang army was defeated, the small Xiliang army would be more likely to be strangled.

Zhang Yang sensed something else, Wang Kuang didn't want to follow their lead, and asked, "I don't know what good strategy Brother Gongjie has?"

Wang Kuang heard the words and said: "The Art of War says: "If you cross the river halfway, you can hit it." Hua Xiong will not understand this truth. If someone sets up defenses on the river bank, he will not dare to act rashly. If you come in a big way, you can defeat Hua Xiong in one fell swoop."

Wang Kuang's thinking was too rigid, if Hua Xiong was really so timid, he wouldn't be the number one general in Xiliang.

Guan Yu still wanted to dissuade Yi Er, but Zhang Yang stopped him, and turned to Wang Kuang and said, "Brother Gongjie, what do you need us to do?"

Wang Kuang smiled when he heard the words, and said: "Brother Yun once stayed in Xiliang, I hope that Brother Yun can bring an army to participate in the river defense."

"Of course there is no problem."

Zhang Yang said first.

Although Guan Yu was dissatisfied, he could only suppress it in his stomach.

"Then I will trouble you both, I will personally host a banquet for you tonight."

Wang Kuang smiled brightly.

Zhang Yang hesitated and said: "Brother Gongjie, can you handle the matter of the Chang family in Wen County leniently?"

Wang Kuang's smile froze, and he said, "Okay."

"Then I will take my leave first."

"Well! I'll send you two off."

Wang Kuang personally sent the two out of the mansion. Seeing the two go away, his face became darker and darker. A Confucian scholar appeared beside him and asked, "My lord, what about the Chang family?"

Wang Kuang said, "Let him go first!"

"But that kid Changlin is still making suggestions for the Chen and Zhang families. The Chen and Zhang families are the biggest fat in Hanoi."

The Confucian scholar was full of reluctance, the two surnames Chen and Zhang were members of the eunuch party, and taking them down could make a lot of money.

Wang Kuang said angrily, "Someone said let it go first."

"promise!"

Seeing that Wang Kuang was angry, the Confucian did not dare to speak again. Wang Kuang turned and entered the mansion. The Confucian followed closely behind. They have a face, but the Chen and Zhang families don't have it, they let Chang She go, and they will eat this fat another day."

"My lord is wise."

The Confucian scholar said happily.

Zhang Yang and Guan Yu were walking on the street, and Guan Yu asked, "Why doesn't Uncle Zhi stop persuading Wang Gongjie?"

Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "Brother Yun, you don't understand Brother Gongjie. It's true that Brother Gongjie donates money to others, but he is not a resourceful person. He often changes his mind because of other people's opinions. Now he said so firmly I'm afraid my opinion is instigated by others? Brother Yun, this is another advantage of Brother Gongjie. According to the master, it is extremely strong in execution. Since someone controls him remotely, do you think we can persuade him to change his mind? ?”

As for who is remotely controlling him?You don't need to think about it, you know it must be Yuan Shao, the great model of Yuan.

Guan Yu sighed: "The prince's festival is too rigid."

"Two lieutenants, two lieutenants, please stay."

Chang Lin stopped in front of the two horses again.

Seeing that it was Chang Lin, Zhang Yang joked, "Why are you asking if the matter is settled?"

Chang Lin shook his head: "Lieutenant Zhang was joking. Now that Dong Zhuo's army is pressing down on the border, and the two captains hold powerful soldiers, how can Wang Shijun not sell the face of the two? Guess that uncle will be released before tonight."

"Ah! What a smart young man."

Zhang and Yang were startled, Guan Yu stroked his beard: "Then why do you still stop in front of us?"

Chang Lin said: "Someone has something to ask, I don't know if it is considered presumptuous?"

Zhang Yang said: "Let's talk and listen."

Chang Lin said: "Someone heard that Liu Shijun opened a school in Taiyuan and recruited famous scholars from Hebei. I don't know if it is true or not?"

Guan Yudan narrowed his eyes: "What? You also want to teach people?"

Chang Lin waved his hands again and again: "Are you kidding? You want to study."

"Yes, there is such a thing, you are so smart, you must be a pillar of talent in the future, so if someone writes you a letter, you go directly to Zuo Yuangong."

Zhang Yang said enthusiastically, Chang Lin is so smart, he will definitely become a great talent in the future, how could he miss such a good opportunity to give favors?

Zhang Yang suddenly said: "Mr. Zuo Yuan, do you know?"

Chang Lin nodded: "Of course I know, he is one of the disciples of Lord Jiexiu (Guo Tai)."

Zhang Yang nodded: "That's right. After the death of Duke Jiexiu, he was the only one who lived in front of the Jiexiu cemetery. This time Liu Shijun opened the Jiexiu Academy and he presided over it."

Chang Lin was overjoyed: "I heard that Zuo Yuan is both civil and military, and studying under his command will surely make a huge difference."

There are many students like Chang Lin rushing to Taiyuan, such as Jia Kui and Wang Jing from Hedong, Guo Huai and Wang Gai from Taiyuan, etc.
