Volume 3 Chapter 62

The town of Datong repelled the invading Tartar cavalry, and the words of the governor Liu Tianhe soon reached the capital.

Liu Tianhe made a detailed report on the process of the Tartar invasion in the recital, and it seemed that there was no problem, but the process seemed to be developing in his favor.

At the beginning, he judged that the Tartars would definitely raid Yulinwei in the northwest of Datong Town, so he led the elite of the border army of Datong Town to Yulinwei in advance.

Sure enough, the main force of the Tartar cavalry immediately crossed the Great Wall outside the pass, and went straight to Yulin Wei, fortunately, he had led the army to wait in Yulin Wei, the main force of the Tartar cavalry lost the first battle, and soon retreated outside the fortress, but unfortunately the Tatar cavalry still had two partial divisions from the vicinity of Yang Hewei and Zhenyuwei respectively, and flowed to the vicinity of Datong Fucheng and Ulzhou.

When he received the news, he reported to the imperial court, asked for reinforcements, and personally led the elite of the border army of Datong Town back to defend Datong City.

Fortunately, the Tatar cavalry did not wreak havoc in Datong Town for long, and the Tatar cavalry that entered the territory of Ulzhou was soon repelled by the elite of the border army of Xuanfu Town, which was ordered to come to support, and then, the Tatar cavalry that rushed into the vicinity of Datong Mansion City was also driven away by the elite of the border army of Datong Town, Taiyuan Town and Xuanfu Town.

In less than five days before and after the Tatars entered the Kou, there were no casualties among the military households and civilians in Datong Town, but the Tartar cavalry that had entered the territory of Ulzhou was surrounded by the elite of the border army led by Yang Cong, the governor of Xuanfu, in Guangling County, and suffered heavy casualties.

In his memoir, he also listed in detail the victories of Yang Cong, the governor of Xuanfu in the Battle of Guangling, while in the other two places, he stated that because the engagement time was too short, the Tartar cavalry retreated too quickly, and the gains were quite small.

This twist and turn does not look like Datong Town was broken by the Tartar cavalry, but the elite troops of Datong Town, Taiyuan Town and Xuanfu Town jointly blocked the invasion of the Tartar cavalry and won the final victory.

It can be said that most of what is said in the compromises is true, and Yang Cong's credit is also real, he did not fake, nor did he count Yang Cong's credit on his own head, he just changed the concept, and portrayed the Tatar cavalry's attack on Datong Town as his alliance with the elite of the border army of Taiyuan Town and Xuanfu Town to actively resist the invasion of the Tatar cavalry.

After all, the invasion of the Tartar cavalry is a very common thing in the northwest border town, as long as the border town has no losses and the Tartar cavalry is repulsed in time, it is considered good, if there is a capture, it is considered meritorious.

He really wrote this fold at a high level, but unfortunately, he made a fatal mistake, that is, he should not have given credit to Yang Cong in the twist.

This is the case these days, ability and merit are secondary, the important thing is to stand in line, as long as you stand in the right line, even if you are a corrupt official can rise to the top, if you stand in the wrong line, even if you work hard and work hard, it is useless.

At this time, it is Xia Yan's party who is in charge of the cabinet, and Xia Yan naturally has the final say on the vote of the fold, and Yang Cong and Xia Yan are proper opponents, and he praised Yang Cong in the fold, which is a typical wrong team.

Xia Yan saw the twists and turns, and immediately became angry, what the hell, you dare to say good things to Yang Cong, is it fake to be the first assistant of the cabinet?

He even wrote on the draft: "Clever words, cover up and cover up, the crime of losing Datong Town is unforgivable, when the dismissal is investigated, arrested and returned to Beijing, and the three legal divisions of the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate will be tried." ”

This guy, if Chaozhong is Xia Yan's Yiyantang, Liu Tianhe will really be finished.

Fortunately, at this time, Yangming's line was still a little powerful in the court, and Yang Cong's network was all over the court, and Yang Cong expected it after watching Liu Tianhe's recital, Xia Yan would definitely have trouble with him.

The so-called "do good things to the end, send the Buddha to the west." Yang Cong felt that Liu Tianhe was not bad and worth wooing, so when Liu Tianhe handed over the fold, he also wrote a secret letter and ordered someone to send it to the capital urgently for 800 miles and send it to Lu Bing.

In the letter, he also described in detail what happened in Datong Town, and even he summarized the content of Liu Tianhe's twists, in short, in one sense, Liu Tian and this person have clear grievances and grievances, and they are worth protecting.

Of course, Lu Bing understood what Yang Cong meant, this is worth protecting not for him to protect alone, but to mobilize the Yangming line to protect it, he can't protect Liu Tianhe alone, after all, he is just the commander of the Jinyi Guards at this time.

He quickly conveyed Yang Cong's meaning to the bigwigs of Yangming's lineage, and asked them to come forward to protect Liu Tianhe, and at this time, the war in the northwest was also a hot topic among the courtiers, but most of them were not Liu Tianhe, but Xianning Hou Qiuluan.

What's going on here?

Xianning Hou Qiu Luan didn't really fight with Ji Nang, and even if he did, the record he reported was nothing compared to Yang Cong's victory, and the courtiers were talking about Xianning Hou Qiu Luan at this time.

This is naturally made up by Xianning Hou Qiuluan himself, but he spent a lot of money, funded Ji Nang 10,000 taels of silver, 300,000 stone grain, and asked Ji Nang to co-star in an offensive and defensive battle with him, such a big price was paid, he naturally wanted to get more returns.

For this reason, he asked his son Qiu Xiong to find Yan Shifan.

Qiu Xiong, a loser, is still a stunned young man at this time, of course, this does not mean that he has a problem with his brain, people will always go through the stage of being young and ignorant or stunned, but some people are stunned for a short time, and some people are stunned for a long time, and people who really have a brain problem may still be stunned at the age of forty or fifty.

Qiu Xiong is less than twenty at this time, it is the time when he is stunned, this day is still the time of the unitary, the professor of Guozijian just announced the end of class, he ran to Yan Shifan and said with a smile: "Brother Deqiu, the little brother has something I want to ask you for help, I wonder if Brother Deqiu can have time to accompany the little brother to have a glass of water and wine?" ”

This guy probably thinks that everything is a one-time life and two familiarity, he thought that he had already bribed Yan Shifan last time, and this time he didn't even bother to say polite words, so he just asked someone to help.

Yan Shifan is helpless, people still know how to cover up bribes, but you kid is afraid that others won't know.

He was really worried that this stunned young man would say all the favors he helped in front of so many classmates, so he couldn't bear his face.

He hurriedly got up and patted Qiu Xiong on the shoulder and said, "It's just right, I want to have two drinks for my brother today, let's go, let's drink, last time you invited me, this time I invite you, we will even if we are even." ”

Qiu Xiong was still waiting to be verbose, and Yan Shifan immediately grabbed his arm and pulled it out.

The two came to the restaurant they frequented, booked a private room, and ordered some wine and food, Yan Shifan took the initiative to ask, "Brother Junjie, what is the matter this time?" ”

He also knows that it's useless to follow the guy to play the edge, and people may not understand it, so it's better to ask directly.

When Qiu Xiong heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "It's still my father's business, isn't my father making great contributions again this time, he wants to be a general, dominate the nine sides, establish a military government, and take charge of the military and politics, Brother Deqiu, how much money do you think this thing can be done?" ”

"Poof", Yan Shifan heard this, and squirted out all the tea he had just drunk.

Nima, your father's appetite is too big, does he want to get the sky out of a hole!
