Chapter 72: Feng Fengshi's conquest of the Southwest Barbarians

Liu Zheng accepted Zhuge Feng's guilt, and not only did not cure Zhuge Feng's crime, but instead reappointed him as the captain of the city gate.

The captain of the city gate, although he belongs to the official position of the rank ratio of 2,000 stones, but the captain of the city gate is responsible for the guards of the various gates of the capital, and the position is high and powerful, and under normal circumstances, it is not allowed to serve except for relatives.

Liu Zheng asked Zhuge Feng to serve as the captain of the city gate, and I have to say that this is a trust in Zhuge Feng.

Although Zhuge Feng did not become the imperial doctor he wanted, he was blessed by misfortune and served as the captain of the city gate, and I have to say that this was an unexpected surprise.

And Zhou Kan escaped death this time, and became more and more like a transparent person in the court, silent about everything, and lived a life of eating and waiting for death.

But it didn't take long for the rebellion of Zhuya County to come again.

In accordance with the usual practice, Liu Zheng summoned hundreds of civil and military officials to the palace to discuss the matter.

As a result, Jia Donzhi wrote a "Proposal for Abandoning the Pearls" with enthusiasm, telling Liu Zheng that if he had this spare money to fight the traitors, it was better to expand a few more harems and be chic and happy.

Liu Zheng felt justified, so he ordered the revocation of Zhugu County, that is, the official declaration of the world, Chaoyan gave up Zhuju County, you barbarians can play as much as you want.

Chaoyan's will to revoke Zhugu County was conveyed, and all the people in the northwest were red-eyed, so Yelang Wang Xing, colluded with the king of Dian and other barbarians in the northwest to raise troops against the Han Dynasty.

Liu Zheng panicked at this time, if King Yelang captured Hanzhong, wouldn't it be further to Guanzhong, then his throne would not be finished, so he called on the ministers to discuss countermeasures.

Jia donation, worthy of being called donation, donated a county yesterday, donate a state today, anyway, it is not his own family business is not distressed, and he wrote a "Abandon Yizhou Proposal" overnight, dedicated to Liu Zheng, and fooled Liu Zheng and said: "The country is in its monarchy, not in the vast land, with the virtue of the three saints, the place is only thousands of miles, and all the saints are spread in the world." ”

Liu Zheng was furious after seeing Jia Donzhi's performance, he was just mediocre, and he was not stupid, where could he not see that Jia Donzhi really regarded himself as a fool, if Liu Zheng gave up the four counties in the Northeast, Liu Zheng might still agree; Giving up Yizhou, isn't this exposing your life to the enemy's nose, especially Hanzhong, once you fall into the hands of the enemy, how can you still be lonely in Guanzhong.

So in anger, he directly ordered someone to cut off Jia Don's waist to show the public, and in this way, Jia Donzhi gave up his life for his words and deeds.

After beheading Jia Donzhi, the generals knew in their hearts that they were going to fight, so they were all sick, and they all went to the book to take leave, and they didn't even participate in the court meeting.

Liu Zheng naturally knew in his heart that these relatives were probably afraid of death, for fear that he would let them lead the army to fight, but now he was all sick, so that Liu Zheng didn't know who to let be the commander.

At the time of the country's life and death, the Chinese military officials abandoned their personal feelings, and all wrote to recommend Feng Fengshi as a general and sent troops to conscript the southwestern barbarians.

Liu Zheng summoned Feng Fengshi to the palace to discuss the pacification of the barbarians in the southwest.

Feng Fengshi opened his mouth and said: "The southwest barbarians have more than 100,000 soldiers, and according to the art of war, we should double the deployment of 300,000 troops, but Your Majesty only needs to call 100,000 soldiers and horses for me, and it will not take a month, and Weichen will naturally pacify the southwest barbarians." ”

"100,000 troops, how much does it cost?" Liu Zheng shook his head and said: "Feng Aiqing, you also know that there is no money in the treasury now, and I have endured it for a few days and have not expanded the harem, so there is still money to feed you with an army of 100,000, at most 10,000 troops, and no more." ”

"10,000 troops......" Feng Fengshi persuaded him: "Your Majesty, when the national crisis is at the moment, it is no longer a matter of money, if there is no 100,000 army, it will be difficult to eliminate this group of southwestern barbarians......"

Kuang Heng jumped out and shouted: "Feng Fengshi, you are still known as the number one general at that time, but you can't take a small southwest barbarian, what kind of face do you have as the number one general?" ”

"Young Master Kuang has never been to Yizhou, naturally I don't know, the terrain in the southwest is complex, it is claimed that there are 100,000 mountains, easy to defend but difficult to attack, 10,000 horses into the southwest are like water droplets dripping into the sea, not the slightest wave." Feng Fengshi said: "Therefore, if there is less army, it can only fight a protracted war, and compared with a quick solution in a war, the difference between the benefits and disadvantages is 10,000 times. ”

Kuang Heng's face was red, and he retreated, and Gou's head stopped talking.

Liu Zheng said quite painfully: "What Feng Aiqing said is not unreasonable, but the imperial court really has no money, and the 100,000 army really can't afford to raise it, so it's better to add another 2,000, so it's decided, the Southwest Certificate will be handed over to you, don't let the widow down." ”

"Your Majesty...... This ......" Feng Fengshi sighed helplessly, and said sadly in his heart: "What is this called, Emperor Xian, why did you give birth to such a thing." ”

"Command!" Feng Fengshi didn't know what to say, so he had to give it up.

Liu Zheng named Feng Fengshi as the right general and led 12,000 men and horses to conquer the barbarians in the southwest.

As a result, after a battle, the Han army suffered heavy casualties, and Feng Fengshi led the remnants of the defeated army to flee to Hanzhong, and wrote to ask Liu Zheng to send troops to support.

Liu Zheng was furious, and issued an order to scold Feng Fengshi, scolding Feng Fengshi to the point of blood, and made it clear in the holy decree, either you cut off the head of Yelang Wang Xing, or cut off your own head, choose one of the two, but there is no door for reinforcements.

Feng Fengshi couldn't say the bitterness in his heart, and looked at Mingyue at night and sighed: "I think I, Feng Fengshi, was born in a good family, went through four dynasties, and participated in more than 100 wars, but I didn't expect that now I have lost my teacher and land, and I really have no shame to face the ancestors and ancestors, and the emperors of the past generations." ”

His daughter Feng Yuan suddenly comforted: "Father, don't be sad, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, although we lost one game today, we will win back tomorrow." ”

Feng Fengshi sighed and said helplessly: "What you said is light, but how easy is it, the barbarian army is dozens of times larger than us, and occupies dangerous terrain, and we don't even have food and grass, and morale is low, alas, ......"

"Yuan'er, you better go back, you don't have to stay by your father's side, I'm afraid my father will really return the horse leather shroud this time!"

Feng Yuan shook his head and said sadly: "No, father, isn't it just a little barbarian, I believe that father, you will be able to calm them, and we will go home together at that time." ”

"Go home...... Right...... We'll be able to put down the rebellion! Feng Fengshi gritted his teeth, looked at the bright moon, and said firmly: "I, Feng Fengshi, will definitely not insult the prestige of the Han, Southwest Yi...... I, Feng Fengshi, will definitely conquer you, and I will definitely ...... Just like the ...... You surrender voluntarily to our feet. ”
