There are two ways to get from Zhang Jun's camp to Shaanzhou: the first is to go south to Huayin, and then turn east to reach Shaanzhou through Tongguan; The second is to directly cross the river into the territory of Hedong Prefecture, take a short overland, and then cross the Yellow River again to reach the city of Shaanzhou. As far as the straight-line distance is concerned, it is naturally faster to cross the river and take the east side of the river, but there is now the Ning River of the Han army on the east bank of the Yellow River, and if the Shaanxi soldiers cross the river, it will immediately trigger a military conflict. The Wu brothers expected that Li Yanxian would go from Huayin, so Wu Ling chased south, and Wu Jue also took Huayin to prepare to enter Tongguan.

Who knew that when he arrived at Tongguan to announce that he was going to take over the military power, the guards Li Yue and Zhao Kai on Tongguan said: "I have received the order of Li Observation General, and I dare not hand over the military power." ”

Wu Jue was shocked: "Li Guan has arrived at Tongguan?" ”

Zhao Kaidao: "Li Guan went to Tongguan yesterday, and after explaining the military affairs, he went to Shaanxi County. If Lord Wu wants to pass, we can let him go. ”

It turned out that Li Yanxian had a deep foundation in the southwest of Shanxi, and he was also very well-connected in various parts of the east of the river, and after sneaking out of Zhang Jun's camp, he crossed the river directly to the east, and crossed the Fengling Crossing with the help of the local gentry and heroes to enter Tongguan, so he not only escaped Wu Ling's pursuit, but also was half a day faster than Wu Jue.

Wu Jue pondered for a moment and said: "Now that I have been ordered by Zhang Xuanfu to take over the military power and defense of various places in Shaanxi, if the two of you can listen to my moderation, they will still be in their original positions." I hope that the two of them will take the world's society as the priority, and do not bear the righteousness of the court for the selfish favor of Li Guan. ”

Li Yue said: "The righteousness of the court? Secretly aiding the Jin people and ruining the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Han family in Yanyun, is it also the righteousness of the imperial court? ”

Wu Jue changed color when he heard this, and Zhao Kai said to Li Yue: "Brother Li, don't be rude. He also said to Wu Jue: "Li Guan has already explained last night, if Zhang Xuanfu's army comes, we will not go out, if Zhang Xuanfu sends someone to come, but let it go." If General Wu wants to take over the military power in Shaanzhou, why don't he go to Shaanxi County to see Li Observation first? Wait for Li to observe and hand over the military power, and we will listen to the general's moderation. ”

Wu Jue said loudly: "Do you really want to abolish the public for private purposes? ”

Li Yue snorted and said, "General Wu, you are from Shaanxi, but I am from Shandong!" Zhang Xuanfu ruined hundreds of thousands of lives of Qilu Zhao Yu, and the folks in my hometown are all looking at the west and scolding! At the beginning, we fought against Jin in a lonely city under the leadership of Li Guanguan, although life and death were not guaranteed, but we were all brave and proud, thinking that even if we died here, we were worthy of the ancestors of heaven and earth. But now when I think of the Shandong fathers pointing at our backbones and scolding me, I feel restless - General Wu, I am a rough man, and I really don't understand what you mean by public and private! ”

Wu Jue was gloomy when he heard this, and Zhao Kai also said: "Anyway, please ask General Wu to go to Shaanxi County, and when General Wu convinces Li Guan, we will naturally hand over the military power and defense." ”

Wu Jue knew that he could not move them, so he brought people to Shaanxi County, and after passing the old site of Hanguguan, he saw that there were signs of war preparations everywhere in Shaanxi County, and entered the state city of Shaanzhou, Li Yanxian had already taken over the affairs of the whole state, and heard that Wu Jue came to personally access the state government, and asked: "Jin Qing, Zhang Xuanfu sent you here, is he here to take my head?" ”

Wu Jue asked rhetorically: "Li Guan, do you really want to betray the imperial court and take refuge in the Han Dynasty?" ”

"I had no intention of taking refuge in the Han Department." Li Yanxian said: "But now the imperial court's measures are really disappointing!" From today on, I am willing to defend the land for China, waiting for the birth of the true Son of Heaven. ”

Wu Jue said: "The true son of heaven is in Jiangnan!" ”

Li Yanxian said: "Whether it is Jiangnan or the Northeast, whoever can prosper the Han and destroy Hu in the future will be the true Son of Heaven." Before that, Li Yanxian should defend the land for Shaanzhou, the Han people came to serve, and the Hu people came to avoid talking! ”

Wu Jue said: "If Yansong wants to pass through Shaanzhou and pass through Tongguan, you will also let him go?" ”

Li Yanxian said: "If Zhang Xuanfu has the ambition to drink Ma Yanshan, and wants to take Tongguan to attack Yanyun, the gate of Tongguan will also be open for him." ”

Wu Jue shouted: "Li Observation, have you forgotten your duty as a courtier? ”

Li Yanxian sighed: "Jin Qing, I really didn't want to do this!" "......He took the sword, the blade of the sword was unsheathed, and the hilt of the sword was facing outward, and he said to Wu Jue: "If Jin Qing thinks that Li Yanxian should be punished, kill me and go to Zhang Jun to get his life." ”

Wu Jue's face was heavy, his hand pressed on the hilt of the sword, his eyelids couldn't stop jumping, and after a long time, he finally pushed the sword into the scabbard and said: "The court is the court after all, Zhang Xuanfu has the grace of knowing me, and I can't help but repay it...... Take care! With the last words, he turned and got on his horse.

Soon Chong Yansong led 5,000 soldiers and horses across the river into the territory of Shaanzhou, Li Yanxian did not stop him, but when Chong Yansong's soldiers and horses came to the outside of Shaanzhou, he closed his door and only sent someone to say: "May General Chong recite the order of Zu Houde, and do not disturb the people of Qinchuan." He also sent some grain and grass and a letter, but the letter was addressed to the officials and elders along the way in Shaanzhou, ordering them to let them go and not to resist.

Chong Yansong asked Deng Su, a minister of the army, "What does this mean?" ”

Deng Su said: "I guess Li Yanxian's heart really can't bear to rebel against the Song Dynasty, but he is unwilling to become a sinner who helped Hu destroy the Han, so it's like this." ”

If Yang Yingqi and Xiao Tienu came here, they would have more doubts, but Chong Yansong was a frank person, and he did not doubt this, and led the soldiers and horses to the west, and the soldiers crossed the Tongguan Pass without bloodshed, entered the boundary of Weinan, and settled in Guanxi Town. Deng Su ordered the merchants with the army to accept all of them, give the money according to the value, and the people of Shaanxi were happy, and they went to tell each other, and the whole Weinan knew about it in a few days.

Huayin ordered to close the door and not go out, and Yan Song ordered someone to pass the book in, to the effect: I am a disciple of Qin Luo, and I am not here to disturb the people, but I came to ask Zhang Jun why he attacked the Han Dynasty through Jin, if the soldiers and civilians in the city are still a little bloody, they should go out of the city to cheer for me, if they are afraid of the punishment of the Zhao pseudo-court, they can also defend the city to protect themselves, as long as you don't attack me, our army will not offend.

Huayin ordered the door to be closed, but the defenders in the city heard the news, tied him up overnight, and left the city the next day to take him to the army of Chong Yansong. Chong Yansong ordered Na Huayin: "Everyone has their own aspirations, although you don't know the times, there is no capital crime." And he commanded that he should be driven out of the country.

The Huayin garrison invited Chong Yansong to enter the city, but Chong Yansong insisted on not entering the city, and only sent merchants into the city to buy and sell supplies. Deng Su led several civil officials into the city to summon his fathers and elders, and introduced a gentry with high local prestige to temporarily take the post of Huayin Order. The people of Weinan were all happy and convinced when they heard the news, and many heroes came to take refuge from dozens of miles away, and the local garrison in Huayin also invited themselves to be incorporated into the command of Chong Yansong. Chong Yansong went to the turnips, selected 2,000 people, broke into the original ranks, and after a little rectification, he slowly pressed towards Feng Yi, where Zhang Jun was located.

Li Yanxian was still uneasy, afraid that Chong Yansong would set off a bloody storm after entering the customs, but after hearing about the actions of Chong and Deng in Weinan, he was greatly impressed, and said to Uncle Zhao: "Its army is so moral, no wonder the soldiers and civilians of Shandong Lianghe are willing to return to Han!" ”

Uncle Zhao was originally from the Zhao clan, but at this time he persuaded Li Yanxian to say: "Although I can't bear to bear to remember the Song Dynasty, today we have borne the name of the Song Dynasty, and the Jiankang Imperial Court will no longer allow me to wait." Since the Han army is virtuous today, why don't you understand it? If the two ends of the first rat are not broken. ”

Li Yanxian asked his subordinate officials, officials Liu Xiao and Feng Jing, county commander Zhang Xi, generals Zuo Luheng, Shao Yun, etc., all took what Uncle Zhao said. Li Yanxian then made up his mind, sent an envoy to inform Cao Guangbi that he was willing to shield the southwest of Jin for him, at this time the Jin army had begun to attack Taiyuan, Cao Guangbi was excited to get the news in the siege, and immediately sent an order to hand over the military and political power from Hedong Mansion to Xie Zhou to Li Yanxian to deal with, and allowed him to act cheaply between Tongguan and Luoyang.

Seeing that Cao Guangbi trusted him so much, Li Yanxian swept away the last trace of doubt, and while organizing troops to peep into Luoyang, he raised grain and grass to supply Yansong. When the counties in the Fenhe Valley heard that Li Yanxian had joined the people's hearts, even some of the grass on the wall did not dare to move, and the Jin and Fen areas became the stable rear of the two anti-gold fronts of Taiyuan Mansion and Taihang Mountain.
