879 Yu Ban wants to repay Guo Peng's trust in him
Yu Ban is a native of Taishan, and he once met Bao Xin in his early years and trained soldiers and horses for Bao Xin.
Later, Bao Xin admired Guo Peng, so he recommended Yu Ban to Guo Peng, and let Yu Ban join Guo Peng and work for Guo Peng, so that Yu Ban began to embark on the fast track of life.
Training troops for Guo Peng and commanding troops for Guo Peng has always been in a very important military position.
He has won the trust of Guo Peng, and has even become one of the five tiger generals, and his status and position are even above Xiahou Yuan, Cao Hong, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other veteran generals.
It can be said that Guo Peng has always admired him very much, and the resources he has given him have always been good.
At that time, when he conquered Xuzhou, he was the first general to lead the army alone, but although it was successful, it caused the death of Chen Qi and Chen Deng, so that he did not do his full work, so he failed to go further when he was rewarding his merits.
Despite this, Yu Ban's status among the Wei army was also quite high.
It's just that no one expected a series of political turmoil later.
No one expected that the dispute between Han and Wei would come so quickly and so suddenly.
As a result, in the political turmoil of the alternation of the Han and Wei dynasties, Bao Xin, who recommended him to enter Guo Peng's army, was subjected to a tragic political liquidation because he opposed Guo Peng to go further and stood on the wrong team.
Taishan Bao was originally a family that followed Guo Peng very early and contributed to Guo Peng, but in the end, he actually opposed Guo Peng going further, which made Guo Peng very annoyed, so he made a decisive move.
Bao's political status and power were completely deprived, and the reason why he was able to save his life was that Bao Xin coaxed at the last moment, and there was no way to go to the dark, and then Guo Peng remembered Bao's early help in his early years, so there was no killer.
But it's just that there are no killers.
The Bao family lost all power and status except for their lives, and there was nothing left, and even the family was moved to Yanzhou to farm outside Luoyang City for a living.
Guo Peng kept the Bao family, and he may also have the idea of alerting future generations, so that later generations can weigh their own weight to see if they are stronger than the Bao family and have higher power, so that Guo does not dare to do it.
If not, then it's best not to do something that goes against Guo's will.
Guo has never shown mercy to his enemies.
At that time, there were many people who were frightened, but they were basically political figures, and the military was very well controlled by Guo Peng because of Guo Peng's own family background, so there was basically nothing to worry about.
But there is one exception, and that is Yu Ban.
Knowing that Bao Xin stood on the wrong team and was liquidated, Yu Ban was scared to death.
He has a good relationship with Bao Xin.
The two have exchanged letters all year round, and they will also give gifts and visit during the New Year's holidays, and even Bao Xin and Yu Ban discussed whether to marry a child or something, so that the connection between each other's families is closer, and the military and political circles are blooming.
It can be said that Yu Ban and Bao Xin have a good relationship, and it is a well-known thing in the Wei State.
So when the wind was tight at that time, when Bao Xin was taken down, there were even rumors that Bao Xin, Xun Yu and others colluded with the generals in the army to try to rebel and so on.
The spearhead is directed at Yu Ban.
Someone wants to take this opportunity to bring down Yu Ban, frame Yu Ban as a thief, and kill him.
At that time, Yu Ban really thought that he was going to be implicated, and he was going to be stewed by Guo Peng with a spoonful of Bao's, and he was terrified.
He is even mentally prepared to commit suicide to prove his innocence and save his family.
As a result, after Guo Peng ascended the throne, Yu Ban's military position and power were promoted, and he didn't seem to know this kind of rumors at all.
In the whole political turmoil, in the turmoil of the Han and Wei dynasties, Yu Ban did nothing, led the troops to fight as usual, promoted and made a fortune as usual, and rose step by step, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he was renamed the Marquis of Taishan, and he actually sealed 800 households in Shiyi, ranking one of the third-class marquises.
The rumors against Yu Ban are gone, as if they never existed.
After hearing some inside information, Yu Ban, who had a feeling of the rest of his life, was that grateful and that he was happy!
This time, Guo Peng did not make a big fanfare, but quietly sent Guo Jin over to Yu Ban as a personal soldier, so that they could go to the battlefield to experience the war.
It's inconvenient to do this with great fanfare, which makes people jealous of Yu Ban, but Guo Peng wants to tell Yu Ban-
I don't have any suspicions about you.
The Bao family is the Bao family, you are you, don't be upset because of the Bao family's affairs, do things for me, and I will ensure the prosperity and health of your whole family.
The sensitive Yu Ban understood what Guo Peng was going to tell him, and his heart was settled, and he suddenly felt the emperor's grace, and he wanted to wipe his tears excitedly.
So Yu Ban vowed to prove his loyalty with a hearty victory and an entire Pingzhou to repay Guo Peng's trust in him.
Yu Ban's main army was advancing all the way to the Liaodong Peninsula by sea, Zhang Fei and Tian Yu's partial divisions were galloping on the prairie, and Tai Shici's navy was also advancing resolutely towards the Korean Peninsula.
They are moving very fast.
However, at this moment, in mid-to-late September, Liaodong still did not know the news of the Wei army's advance.
In fact, this cannot be blamed on the Liaodong side for not taking precautions and not sending people to investigate the news, but their intelligence level is too different from that of the Linzi camp.
Before the war, Yan Rou secretly arrived in Liaoxi County in July and began to preside over the intelligence war against Liaodong, and successfully controlled the identities and residences of all the spies of the Gongsun clan in the Youzhou area, and mastered their routes of action and connections.
At the beginning of September, after Yan Rou learned the news of the decision to start the battle to pacify Liaodong, he immediately began to act synchronously.
The masters of the Linzi camp were sent to accurately kill the spies of the Gongsun clan, and all the spies of the Gongsun clan were killed within three days, completely destroying the eyeline of the Gongsun clan in Liaodong.
No phone calls, no text messages, no WeChat, and no email.
There is no way to transmit information quickly, information can only be transmitted between people with ancient tools, the efficiency and speed are pitiful, and there is not even such a tight organization as Linzi Ying.
Therefore, Yan Rou judged that in less than a month to two months, the Gongsun clan could not even figure out what was going on in Liaoxi County and what was happening to their spy organization.
There is no way to know that the Wei army is marching rapidly.
They may now be distressed by rising food prices and food scarcity, but can they still hear the news of the Wei army's advance?
When they figure out that the Wei army is attacking them, it is estimated that it will be until Zhang Fei and them take Xuanwu County, or Tai Shici and them will destroy Sanhan.
This kind of battle is also a situation in which victory is guaranteed.
Guo someone, who is far away in Luoyang, has the chance to win.
On September 18, when Tai Shici's navy had arrived on the Korean Peninsula and was preparing to start its march according to the established route, Gongsun Kang and Liu Yi were overwhelmed by the large-scale civil chaos in the five counties of Liaodong.
At the same time as the Wei army marched, the food crisis in Liaodong was constantly fermenting, and soon the quantitative change led to the qualitative change.
At first, it is not known where the leaks began.
The terrible news of "no food" immediately spread in many places in the five counties of eastern Liaoning.
Because the news spread so quickly and pointed so precisely, even Liu Yi wondered if someone did it deliberately.
They are trying to prepare quietly, secretly buying a batch of food, preparing to take the lead in stabilizing the army when necessary, as long as they can stabilize the army, then there is still hope for everything.
As a result, the news suddenly broke out, and for a while, everyone rushed to the nearest grain store to see if there was any food, and there was no warning at all.
