Chapter 1212 No one can avoid it


    No matter where you are, the quiet night is always very sultry, and the evening breeze blows on your body, giving you a sense of tranquility. However, after Feiqian finished the dinner, although the night breeze was blowing, his heart could not calm down.


    Because the Xiliang generals were near Tianshui, although they held a banquet, it was not an unlimited carnival. They were somewhat restrained in their hearts, and after they had enjoyed themselves, they dispersed.


    Fei Qian stood in front of the big tent and watched the camp stretching outside Shanggui City. The light of the torches in the camp seemed to reflect the stars in the sky, which was quite dreamy.


    The current situation is becoming more and more complicated.


    Of course, there were actually some signs of such a complicated situation at the beginning, but now it has exploded, just like inflammation. Maybe it was there at the beginning, but it was not obvious. Then accidentally eating and drinking chicken soup caused inflammation. The volcano erupted violently.


    ?Although he was somewhat prepared in his heart, when the real thing happened, Fei Qian still felt a little headache and a little depressed.


    "Your Majesty, this matter is someone''s fault..." Jia Xu returned the information in the bamboo tube, cupped his hands and whispered in a low voice, "Due to the implementation of the new land administration laws in Guanzhong, the Zheng family had many complaints, colluded with big households, and controlled the place. Therefore, a certain person went to Yuanzhi and discussed with the scholars in Yuan Dynasty, and took advantage of the opportunity of the ruler and prince being in Longyou to spread rumors in Guanzhong that the ruler and prince had been defeated..."


    ??Li Ru let out a cry from one side and said half-jokingly: "... I originally wanted to use a thin kneeling breast, but I bumped into it and only stretched it..."


    Jia Xu said awkwardly: "...That''s it."


    Fei Qian generally understood that Jia Xu, Pang Tong, and Xu Shu originally thought of digging a hole for the jumping guys like the Zheng family in Guanzhong, but unexpectedly the hole was dug too small, and a big guy jumped in.


    Huchuquan is here.


    Some time ago, Fei sneaked into Guanzhong and Hanzhong. Diaoyin, which was originally a relatively important pass, was naturally replaced by Tongguan and Wuguan, which were more geographically important. Ma Yan guarded Tongguan, Zhao Yun guarded Wuguan, and Diaoyin was located in the hinterland. Naturally, no one was left to guard the pass, and there were not many soldiers left. Only a hundred county soldiers were left to maintain normal operations. As a result, Huchuquan succeeded in a surprise attack and captured Diaoyin.


    "Is there any news from Pingyang?" Fei Qian asked subconsciously, then shook his head and said, "Well, although Beiqu is small, the military stronghold is still there, and Huchuquan may not be able to be captured in a hurry... Zhongzhong The most important thing is still Zuo Fengyi..." I was still a little worried about Pingyang, so I asked subconsciously. In fact, the news from Pingyang was cut off when Diaoyin was captured. No one is the almighty God for a while, and who knows if there will be any changes.


    Jia Xu nodded and said: "Youruo Zhenpingyang, the attack is insufficient, but the defense should be fine. What''s more, although the Huchuquan offensive is fierce, it is not strong enough. The only way is to go south to Zuo Fengyi, conquer Tongguan again, and fight with the Yang family of Hongnong. Only when the inside and outside are connected can the task be accomplished. Therefore, the main force of Huchuquan should be in Guanzhong, and at most a small number of partial troops should be sent out to pretend to attack and contain Qu Pingyang in the north. "


    "The Zheng family in Guanzhong must guard the land to protect itself, and the yin feeds the Huchu Spring to see what happens next. If we are unable to suppress it, we can also have both sides..." Li Ru smiled and said, "Although Tongguan is closed, there is still Pujin Crossing... Even though the pontoon bridge has been destroyed, the iron cables still exist. So, I’m afraid that Hedong Wangyi will not be able to get away with it.”


    Tongguan was guarded by Mayan, so it was naturally impossible to open the door without authorization and allow people to come and go freely. If people in Guanzhong wanted to get in touch with the Yang family in Hongnong, the shortest way was to take Pujin Ferry.


    Pujin Ferry is an ancient ferry on the Yellow River that has been left since the Qin Dynasty. It is located north of Tongguan. Because the water level of the Yellow River is very different between the dry season and the wet season, Pujin Ferry has always used an iron cable pontoon bridge to cross the river. , of course, during low water periods, you can also use boats to cross it, which is known as the key to the north gate of Tongguan.


    As early as the period of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, the pontoon bridge at Pujin Ferry was burned down to prevent the Qiang rebellion from spreading to the east of the river. It has not been repaired to this day. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the passage of large armies, but it is not a big problem to pass a few people secretly.


    After passing Pujin Ferry, it is Hedong, and then from Hedong to Shaanjin, and then through Shaanjin and into Hongnong. Although Zhang Liao is stationed in Shaanjin, ordinary caravans and ordinary merchant ships are still allowed to pass, so through this route , Guanzhong and Hongnong are contacted, and naturally there is a great possibility.


    Although Li Ru and Jia Xu both said that there should be no problems in Pingyang in general, after all, it involves their own base camp, so Fei Qian is still a little uneasy, but now these uneasy feelings have no effect on the situation in Pingyang. , so I had to calm down for the time being and said, "For today''s plan, how about a lunch box?"


    "Zuo Fengyi and the Zheng family have nearly ten Wubao in size and six or seven thousand Hakka private soldiers. However, without experience in battle formations or the art of war, they will be defeated very easily," Jia Xu said. "The current danger is When Huchuquan went south, Zuo Fengyi joined forces with him to break Tongguan, and joined forces with the Hongnong Yang family to advance... Therefore, we should fight Huchuquan first and draw firewood from it. The Zheng family and others would be like boiling soup, and they would have nothing to worry about..."


    Li Ru also said: "Now that Han Wenyue has been captured, the battle of Longyou can come to an end for the time being... A certain person and Kuanzhi led the troops to the west entrance of Fanxu Road, set up a stronghold at the street pavilion, united the people, sold Jia and Qiang Di, and watched The situation in Longyou is waiting for an opportunity...General can lead the cavalry eastward to Guanzhong with Wen He to fight against Huchuquan, and then it can be calmed down."


    ?Fei Qian took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled it, and said: "Shan! Just do it like this!"


    ?Having a large territory has the advantage of being large, but it also brings some troubles. A place has its own situation, and sometimes the distance from the center becomes a problem, and the control becomes a problem. Just like when Fei Qian left Guanzhong, someone started to make a move. Although this time it was indeed Jia Xu and others who made a plan and dug a hole, which unexpectedly attracted Huchuquan, but it also shows that in fact, other people Kan Feiqian''s territory has expanded now, but it is actually not stable yet.


    Fei Qian stared at the dark sky in the east, thoughtfully.


    ?It seems that no one can avoid this problem.


    Rebellion.


    It was because of the Xiqiang rebellion that Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty exhausted the last bit of bone marrow in the Han Dynasty. Then Yuan Shao also encountered a rebellion in Yecheng, Cao Cao also had the same experience of encountering a rebellion, Liu Bei did the same, and even Sun Biyan in the future would also jump in such a circle...


    What about me?


    Now that the Zheng family in Guanzhong is rebelling, who will it be in the future?


    ……………


    At night in late summer and early autumn, if there is no wind in the house, it is still quite sultry. However, in the recently restored Yang Mansion in Luoyang City, Yang Biao was braving the heat and writing furiously under the light of candles. :


    “Written brother, seeing the letter is like meeting:


    I have received the letter from my brother.


    I know that my brother is in a thorny land, and my heart is longing for the bright future of the country. I feel very comforted.


    ?My brother is in the middle of the pass. People are ignorant and the situation is difficult. However, with the help of all the wise men, the situation is finally broken. In Feng Yi''s land, everyone knows the evil of the three colors. The crowd is raging and the attack can be expected. The public business was in the east of Hedong, and Xiao Wendu showed great righteousness and was very effective. Aid was sent to Pujin immediately. Nowadays, the Southern Hungarians also know the great justice, right and wrong of the world. Even though they are in a barbarian land, they still have the desire to attack the rebellious officials, and their courage can be sold.


    With the combined efforts of the left and right sides, the top and bottom of the army, and the new defeat of the three colors, people are panic-stricken. They can burn their grain and grass in the warehouses, cut off their transportation at the passes, and trap their troops to die in the north. This will be a major event. In this way, Ziyue''s virtuous brother has great achievements and has made great achievements in the world. He is ashamed to be inferior to his brother. It should be said that the emperor should praise his virtuous brother and rank him among the three nobles.


    Although the situation is clear now, hidden dangers still exist. The army of the Western Expedition was stationed at Tongguan to decide between east and west. When they joined the Yinshan Mountains in the north, there were also soldiers there. Although they heard that the expedition to the west was awarded the title of leader, their bodies were not seen. In addition, the surnames in Guanzhong and the north had been coming and going in the past, and their thoughts were uncertain. The Xiongnu troops were good at rushing to attack. However, it is not conducive to attack the city and build the stronghold. All these things still require the wise brother to consider the curtains. Now in Guanzhong, people are either naughty or rude, and it is difficult to make plans for big things. I might as well discuss it with Gongzhi, and don''t sit back and wait for him. No matter what the Southern Hungarians want, they must be persuaded to go in and fight with the three-color flag. Ding determines the victory.


    ?The foolish brother Heluo was initially appointed, and he also shared the ambition of helping the country. He immediately ordered heroes and warriors to send troops to Tongguan to help the wise brothers break Tong and sweep through Guanzhong.


    Everything we do is for the prosperity of the Han Dynasty and the peace of all living beings. We obey the will of heaven above and the hope of the whole people below. This feeling can be expressed by heaven and can shine on the sun and moon. I hope that my good brother will give you good news soon.


    Brother Yu paused.


    Not well-known. "


    The light flickered, and Yang Biao''s pen was moving. After a while, he finished writing the letter on the small scarf, then carefully dried the ink, then carefully rolled it into the bamboo tube, sealed it with fire paint, and added a seal. After poking, he called the personal guards. After giving a few instructions in a low voice, he watched the personal guards disappear into the night with his hands behind his back.


    General Fei Qian of the Conquest of the West, is he really dead?


    ?Yang Biao frowned deeply, stood in front of the hall with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky.


    The night wind whimpered and passed through the front of the hall, pulling the trees in the courtyard to silence.


    General Fei Qian of Zhengxi had no children. Yang Biao knew this. If Fei Qian really died on the battlefield, it would be very likely that the entire Zhengxi territory would immediately fall apart. Therefore, Guanzhong Zuofeng It is only reasonable that Zheng Ziyue, the Zheng family of Yi, would like to take this opportunity to find a way out.


    but…


    Yang Biao still remembers that when he was annexing Pingyang in Bei, he once felt that he was almost certain that he could push Fei Qian to Guanzhong and absorb Fei Qian''s military, material and financial resources from Pingyang. However, he was completely defeated in the blink of an eye and could not even fight back. , had to knock out his teeth and swallow blood, gritted his teeth and endured the return to Hongnong.


    As a military general, no one can avoid breaking the jar without leaving the well. After all, there is a risk of dying on the battlefield, and Fei Qian cannot avoid it. However, Fei Qian''s body was not actually seen, and there were only some rumors. This inevitably made Yang Biao had doubts in his heart.


    Although those rumors are all based on nose and eyes, they are as detailed as if they were seen with one’s own eyes.


    Heluo is connected in all directions, with Hedong and Hanoi in the north, Jingxiang in the south, Yanzhou and Yuzhou in the east, and Guanzhong and Chang''an in the west. If any direction is strong, Heluo will definitely be threatened by it. Although Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty is by his side, he will not It means absolute safety. The actions of this guy Cao Pingdong sounded the alarm for Yang Biao.


    For Heluo to achieve great success, it must have a solid rear!


    The reason why Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu was able to rule the world, bring peace to Guanzhong, and make Dou Wei of Xiliang surrender and become his vassal was that he relied on the financial, material and human support of Jizhou and Yuzhou, plus the cavalry frontier troops in Bingzhou. The capital of the world, and now a lonely Sili land, cannot sustain it for long at all.


    ??Tongguan was defeated before, which has already consumed a lot of family wealth. In addition, Luoyang needs to be renovated again, the royal family also needs supplies, and it has just experienced a locust plague...


    ??Thinking of the locust plague, Yang Biao shuddered.


    ?The locusts that covered the sky and the sun gave everyone inside them a sense of powerlessness about the coming doomsday.


    What is even more hateful is that the ministers of the court, who are receiving the salary that the Hongnong Yang family squeezes out, turn around and criticize, saying that the locust plague is a warning from God, that the ministers are incompetent, and that they are state-owned treacherous villains...


    Fortunately, Liu Xie did not listen to the lies of these mediocre people and did not convict him. Otherwise, Yang Biao would have already prepared a memorial to apologize for retreating. Of course, if it really comes to that point, Yang Biao only needs to hold on to the government''s salary supply. Before long, these nagging ministers will definitely be unable to help but come forward again and recommend Yang Biao to be reinstated.


    ?Yang Biao actually didn''t care much about these mediocre people who were vacillating and had superficial ideas. On the contrary, it was the few ministers who never said anything or expressed any inclination that made Yang Biao deeply afraid.


    Just like Yang Biao will receive the surrender of the Zheng family in Guanzhong, will these ministers who have not shown any inclination in the DPRK also be related to a certain force?


    Er Yuan?


    Conquer the West?


    Even Jingxiang? Cao Pingdong?


    are all possible.


    ?This is something that no one can avoid. We can’t keep the city gates closed every day, or conduct frequent searches throughout the city, right?


    ??Among the people who go out to collect firewood from the city, there are some individuals who are interested. No matter how careful you are, it is basically impossible to prevent them.


    Now, all we can do is seize the opportunity.


    Yuan Benchu ??is attacking Yijing, and Gongsun has been defeated. I wonder how long he can sustain it?


    Yuan Jiujiu turned to the southeast at this moment. He was attacking Jiangdong in Yangzhou. Although he had no intention of turning around and heading north for a while, if Jiangdong was determined, he would definitely go north, and it would be difficult for him to do it by then.


    ? Cao Pingdong and Marquis Wen were in a stalemate at this time, and each had his own victory or defeat. It is difficult to say who won and who lost.


    ??If at this moment, I can really take advantage of the opportunity to conquer Xifei, move east and west, close the pass, and merge with the north, then it will really be a blessing!


    ??Yang Biao has never believed in ghosts and gods, but at this moment, he couldn''t help but lower his head and silently pray to the ghosts and gods, praying that Zheng Xifeiqian would really die and go to hell.


    ??As long as Zhengxi Feiqian is really dead, Yang Biao can forget about all the generals and counselors under Zhengxi and keep his rank and salary, as long as these people are willing to surrender to him!


    ?What a pity!


    Let’s collect the Zhengxi Fei dive...
