Chapter 260 Dou Xian (3/4)
"Dou Xian was born in a general and studied military books since he was a child. His great-grandfather once said in front of others that Dou Xian's skills are no less than him." Feng Yi said.
Who was Dou Rong? The founding hero of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
But he also has another identity. He was once a subordinate of Wang Mang, but later he turned to Liu Xiu in secret and turned to the open.
At first, Dou Rong was defeated by Gengshi's army and surrendered. With his own ability, he gradually controlled the five counties in Hexi and became a warlord who dominated the country in troubled times.
Later, he made the most correct deal in his life, which was to present his five Hexi counties to Liu Xiu, so that he could become a dragon, enter the Eastern Han Dynasty regime and become a powerful boss, and was even more fortunate to enter Yuntai Pavilion.
Although Dou Rong was somewhat different from Feng Yi, Lai She, and Geng Yan, the top players of the Eastern Han Dynasty, his abilities were definitely not weak.
"Then what do I want to pay? The general can't give me the military rations for nothing. If it is related to Hou Lingyuan Correspondence, it would be useless to find me. Hou Lingyuan Correspondence is stationed by Zhang Huan's descendants. They will not abide by the orders of anyone except the emperor." Han Sui said.
Zhang Huan was the last person in Sanming, Liangzhou, but he also died of illness more than ten years ago. The other two were Huangfu Gui, Duan Bing, and Huangfu Song were Huangfu Gui's nephews.
Although Zhang Huan was outstanding in ability, he was not valued. He was belittled from Luoyang for life and stayed in Lingyuan Pass in his early years.
He had thousands of disciples, and these people followed him to Lingyuan Pass.
I haven't taken a step out of the level for decades since then.
Zhang Huan has long passed away for many years. Before his death, Zhang Huan once said: "A person's wealth and poverty are destined, and a person's life and death are determined by the laws of nature. If you cannot decide what you live, you can make the decision. After I die, don't be wrapped with silk, and don't cover me with dense nails. Just put a spiritual bed in the cave and cover me with a scarf."
Later, Zhang Huan's disciples all followed his words and buried him.
Then he followed Zhang Huan's footsteps and silently stationed at the border until now.
"I just hope that the general can lend a helping hand when we need it." Feng Yi said.
Han Sui was silent for a long time and nodded at last.
Anyway, it's just a verbal agreement.
The right to decide whether to follow or not is in his hands.
"The food and armor that promised the general would be delivered to the general from the small path. Whether it would be discovered depends on the general himself." Feng Yi said.
Han Sui nodded, "I understand."
Han Sui and Dou Xian then left Qian Lingyuan Pass and returned to Zhonghan.
When he returned to Xiliang, Han Sui asked Dou Xian, "You can fight?"
Dou Xian said, "I will do it a little bit."
"But not just talking about war on paper." Han Sui said.
"If you don't believe me, you can join me in an army and let me lead the troops." Dou Xian said.
"Okay, don't let me down." Han Sui then gave Dou Xian three thousand elite Qiang cavalry.
Dou Xian spent a day controlling the cavalry and left the city. Three days later, he captured a grain site at Dong's army, killed the enemy, and then borrowed the grain site to surround the trap to fight and defeat the reinforcements.
Dou Xian then led his troops back to Hansui's garrison.
"Beautiful." Han Sui said.
"I have seen your ability. From today on, the number of cavalry under your command will increase to 10,000. You are the Qiang Cavalry Captain under my command. Whether you can get more rewards depends on your contribution." Han Sui said to Dou Xian.
"Hmph, it's just luck." A general behind Han Sui snorted with some dissatisfaction.
Han Sui's tone increased a little, "Yan Xing!"
Yan Xing stopped talking and felt a little angry.
He has been following his lord for so many years but has only been in charge of a Qiang cavalry of 10,000 people. If the credit he made has accumulated much greater than this person, why can he be on par with himself as soon as he came?
Han Sui said to Dou Xian: "You go down first."
Dou Xian received the order and retreated.
Dou Xian turned around and left the camp with a calm expression, but Dou Xian's originally calm eyes were covered with frost.
Han Sui turned around and said to the general behind him: "I know you are not satisfied with anything, but his ability is indeed good, and he was sent by the Eastern Han Dynasty. If he didn't give him an army, it would be difficult to explain to the Eastern Han Dynasty. After all, the Eastern Han Dynasty is our last retreat." Han Sui said meaningfully.
"I understand." Yan Xing clasped his fists and said in depression.
When Han Sui saw Yan Xing's disagreement, he thought in his heart, and then said, "Yan Xing, you are twenty-three years old this year and have not yet married."
"Yes." Yan Xing said.
"What do you think about Rou'er?" Han Sui said.
Yan Xing was stunned.
The Rouer in Han Sui's mouth is Han Sui's daughter. She just turned fifteen this year, and in his opinion, she is just a bean sprout.
"I will betroth Rou'er to you." Han Sui said.
Yan Xing's face changed slightly.
The second is age, mainly because Han Rou has a bad temper and her appearance has inherited Han Sui's ordinary appearance.
But Han Sui was firm in his attitude and did not allow Yan Xing to refuse.
......
"Dou Xian?" Fang Mu looked at the information sent by the spy in his hand and exclaimed lightly.
How could Dou Xian, who was strapping with Yanran, run to Han Sui?
Could it be that Han Sui had some deal with the Eastern Han Dynasty?
Xiliang is a little beautiful now.
Han Sui and Ma Teng joined forces, and they already had talented people like Ma Chao, Yan Xing, Pang De, and Cheng Gongying. This is also the reason why Dong Zhuo has not been able to completely take over the last piece of the puzzle in Xiliang. Now, with Dou Xian, Dong Zhuo may have a difficult life.
But to be honest, compared to Dong Zhuo, Fang Mu hopes that Han Sui and Ma Chao can win.
Because they are just forcibly united because of Dong Zhuo. When Dong Zhuo is gone, the two of them will naturally be disbanded and split into two and will continue to fight in the middle.
If Dong Zhuo did not send Lu Bu to Liangzhou, Li Jue, Guo Si and Niu Fu alone would not be Dou Xian's opponents.
The seal of wolf and the stones of Yanran were regarded as one of the highest achievements by later military generals.
Dou Xian, who completed this task by one, was absolutely extremely capable, but was forced to commit suicide by Emperor Han and Emperors because he was proud of his contributions and wanted to rebel.
It is precisely because of this that the matter of Yanran's letting stone is often mentioned in later generations, and Dou Xian's praise and evaluation are less than Huo Qubing.
Because no ruler would proclaim a rebellious minister, no matter how great his contribution was.
Similarly, the ministers below will not praise a rebel against the will of the ruler.
Moreover, Dou Xian is not a person with a personality.
Historical books once recorded that "Xian is impatient, and everyone who is grudged by grudges will take revenge."
Dou Xian is a person with talent but not virtue.
The desire was extremely strong. After Yanran tied the stone, Dou Xian formed his own political group and made the court chaotic with his own contribution.
Dou Xian has been granted the title of the Qiang Cavalry Captain by Han Sui. After he makes some contributions and receives more rewards, he will further expand. Sooner or later, there will be irreparable conflicts with Han Sui and the others.
As soon as he thought of this, Fang Mu chuckled and let go of the information and no longer cared about it.
