Zhang Bin thought that Duan Piyan and Shao Xu were not worried, but Cheng Yao said in his heart - not necessarily, not necessarily, how do you know that there is not enough food to be bored?

Because Zhang Bin didn't know that Su Jun had transported grain and grass from the sea to Yanci, Cheng Ziyuan was in charge of intelligence work, but he vaguely heard some information, because it was still being approved, so he did not report it to Shi Le. If he put this information together at this time, even if there is no conclusive evidence, he would indeed be able to catch Zhang Bin off guard, but the problem ...... Not much use, right? The old thief didn't spare his hand, and he could easily throw off the pot.

However, if Zhao Gong listens to Zhang Bin's words and leaves Xiangguo, and Shao Xu takes this opportunity to send troops to invade, there is no need to attack the city and break the city, as long as the army travels more than 100 miles and threatens my realm, I will be able to throw this news directly in Zhang Mengsun's face at that time!

Should you take the risk? Cheng Wei hesitated for a moment, and then thought: Shao Xu's troops and horses are limited, even if he attacks, it is estimated that he will not be able to fight far, it is just the scourge of ringworm, if he can greatly frustrate Zhang Bin's prestige because of this, and even make Zhao Gong begin to doubt his plan, then it will be more beneficial to me. Forget it, let you be happy for a while, I'll just keep my mouth shut.

Since Cheng Yao didn't speak, Zhang Bin's proposal was successfully passed. Shi Leqin led 3,000 elite cavalry to rush to Hanoi, so he naturally wanted to take the military advisor Zhang Bin with him, and as for the aftermath, he simply entrusted it to Cheng Yao.

In fact, Cheng Yao is a scribe and doesn't know much about marching and fighting, but first, after he took charge of intelligence work, his level of strategic planning seems to be getting better and better, and secondly, he is also one of Shi Le's most trusted ministers-maybe except for Zhang Bin, who is him-how can he not be left behind?

Cheng Yaozhi is favored, one reason is that he has done a good job in intelligence work, and the other reason is that he dedicated his sister to Shile and was deeply favored, and even Shile abolished Shi Xing, the son of the world, and changed Shi Hong born to Cheng as the heir, the uncle of this son, should not have any different intentions, right? The third reason is that Cheng Yao and Zhang Bin are fighting fiercely, which can be seen by a person, but Shi Le is happy to see it - one does not make Zhang Mengsun's family dominant; The so-called "listening is clear", these two people are arguing in front of me, and the opinions they put forward are often different, but I can make good choices, which will be beneficial in political affairs.

In addition, when Shi Le went to conquer and annex the state, Nanhe ordered Zhao Ling to summon thousands of households in the three counties of Guangchuan, Pingyuan, and Bohai to defect to Shao Xu, and Xing Yan, a native of Hejian, also gathered hundreds of people, and rose up, Shi Le was anxious to pass on the order in the army, and appointed the right Sima Cheng Yao to supervise the military of the seven counties of Jizhou, and led the army to discuss, Cheng Ziyuan basically completed the task successfully. So this time, he was directly ordered to stay behind, and he should be safe, right?

Shi Le could not have imagined that he had just led the army out of Xiangguo, and Cheng Yao sent a message to Wang Gong through a secret channel and asked him: "At the end of the year and the beginning of the year, is it possible for you to make Shao Sizu out of the city and disturb my realm a little?" The information about Shile's departure from Xiangguo was not disclosed, but he made it clear: "In this way, it can frustrate someone's momentum." ”

——————————

Pei Cai trained his soldiers and horses in Dali City, and after a few days, the news came that the Hu army in the north of the county also abandoned Xiayang City and the ferry, and all fled to the east of the river. As a result, there were no more soldiers and horses in the Guanzhong area—there were still a few defeated soldiers to be suppressed, and it was ultimately a problem of ringworm and scabies—so Pei Gai set off to leave Dali and retreat to Chang'an.

Tao Kan, Guo Mo and others were still stationed in the original defense area, and Lu Yan was sent to lead the "Pengshan Middle Battalion" to Qinzhou temporarily and stationed in Ji County.

After leaving Dali, the army marched slowly, starting from the beginning of the three days to the next day. Pei Caicai entered the city, and before he had time to wash the dust, he suddenly received an urgent report from Tao Kan, he opened it and took a look, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

What the? Liu Yao actually left Gaonu, waved his army to the east, and entered Pingyang City?!

What does that mean? Could it be that Liu Cong was afraid that Pingyang would be empty, and Shi Hu might take advantage of the weakness to enter - the news of Shi Hu's seizure of Xihe County was also received by Pei Cai just a few days ago - so he urgently summoned Liu Yao to return to the guard? However, Liu Cang and Liu Yao are not harmonious, if Liu Yao returns to the court, and Liu Cang coincides with the defeat, the forces of the two sides will not cause any trouble? Liu Cong is not stupid, why did he make such a decision?

was hesitating, and the door reported that Zhou Jin had come to ask for guilt.

Pei should summon Zhou Jin to the hall, and as soon as he saw that guy come in, he immediately fell to the ground, cried loudly, and kowtowed again and again, asking for punishment. Pei Gai asked: "I ordered Qing to abandon Xiayang, has the order been delivered?" ”

Zhou Jin replied: "Before the order was obtained, that is, because Hu was very strong, he could not defend it, so the last general gave up Xia Yang...... Therefore, I have come to ask the Metropolitan Governor for his guilt. ”

Pei Caixin said I see, I still wonder what kind of crime you have...... It is certainly the fault of the defeated and lost division, but it should also be dealt with separately according to different situations. It is normal for me to lose - is there an undefeated army in the world, and where is the general who will win for a long time? Even if the iron army in later generations abandoned Jiangxi because of improper command from the central government, could it be that the commanders and fighters who fought bloodily were all at fault? It was only for the sake of abandoning the city without a decree, that is why you came to plead guilty.

Pei Gai hurriedly left the table, stretched out his hand to help Zhou Jin up, and said sincerely: "Let the general be a lonely city and a few soldiers as a thief, the crime lies with me, what is the general's crime?" "Kind words to soothe. Zhou Jin exchanged tears and said: "Even so, the last general only guarded Xia Yang for a few days, and before the food was exhausted, he abandoned the city, and covered the attack for the Hu cavalry outside the city, causing the soldiers to scatter, and there was no one or two out of ten, how dare you claim to be innocent?" It is also hoped that the metropolitan governor will punish the last general with military law to reassure the people. ”

He once even had the intention of committing suicide, but since he barely survived, he was full of revenge and hatred, and he did not plan to die again. It's just that he returned to Pinyang, and seeing how much the generals despise him - those new ones are just handed over, and even old acquaintances like Wang Tang are cold-faced, plus Xia Yang, who was finally "recovered" by Wang Tang, was forced to garrison Pinyang, and he failed to catch up with the decisive battle, which is really unspeakably regretful.

Therefore, Zhou Jin's meaning, even if you don't kill me, you should punish me, otherwise I will not only have no face to see my colleagues again, but even in the face of those subordinates who follow me and fight hard for the rest of their lives, I will feel panicked.

Pei Gai roughly understood Zhou Jin's thoughts, so he nodded and said, "In this case, Qing and lead the remnants to return from me to Chang'an to be punished, and as for the punishment, it will be issued on a later date." ”

He had already thought about it, and he didn't plan to have any substantive punishment measures, but he could wait for the promotion of the rank system, and then he would send Zhou Jin down to the next level and temporarily become a captain - the rest of the battalion commanders must at least be a major general. This can be peaceful, and it can also reduce Zhou Jin's guilt.

As soon as Zhou Jin was sent away, another urgent report came in - Pei Caixin said that there are really a lot of things today.

Judging from the report, it turned out to be a relatively detailed explanation of Liu Yaobing's return to Pingyang. The previous letter was detected by a spy arranged by Pei Shu in the territory of Hu and Han, and reported to Tao Kan, who wrote the book himself; This letter is different, signed "Xue Ning of Xia Xie County".

Pei Gai still remembered Xue Ning's name, and thought that the secret information that Liu Cang would cross from Xiayang was sent by this Xue Ning - it's a pity that the messenger died before he said it too clearly, Pei Gai was still wondering: Why didn't Xue Tao report me? Later, I learned that it was Xue Tao who dared to lead the Hu army to cross west and attack the ferry!

speculated, there are two possibilities: one is that Xue Tao was coerced by Liu Cang, and had no choice but to lead the Hu army to attack the Xiayang Ferry, but secretly asked his brother Xue Ning to send a message to him; The second is that Xue Tao has really surrendered to Hu, but his brother Xue Ning is still interested in me, and he parted ways with his brother.

Hurriedly read the letter carefully, Xue Ning wrote three things in it: first, my brother Xue Tao has really surrendered to Hu - as for whether it was forced, Xue Ning deliberately did not mention it - and then went down to obey Wang Hua, which is not worthy of his brother's doing, so he sent someone to send a letter to Guanzhong before, and I don't know if it was delivered......

Second, Liu Yao Chen Bing was under the city of Pingyang, he was not called back to the court, but returned privately, and he coveted him, and had the heart to seize power by taking advantage of the chaos. For now, he has not been able to enter Pingyang City, Jin Zhun closed the four gates, strictly guarded the city, and did not allow him to enter.

Third, Liu Cang gathered the remnants of the army in Fenyin, and wanted to defend Anyi in the south, but was rejected by the people who went down. As for whether he can rush back to Pingyang to quell the rebellion, and get the news later, he will report to Wang Shi again.

Pei read the book, pondered for a long time, and then asked the messenger: "You came from General Tao, what does General Tao say about this?" ”

The one who sent the letter from Kuaima was not from the Xue clan, but his own generals, and the letter was unsealed, so it can be seen that Tao Kan had already seen it first, so did Tao Kan have anything to say that you wanted to convey to me?

The messenger arched his hand and said: "General Tao sent the last general to the governor, although Hu is in civil strife and the situation is unpredictable, if you are not convinced, you should not rush to attack." ”

Don't hear the news and think that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, so you immediately turn around and go to the east of the river......

"General Tao first sent this letter to the governor of Dadu, and as for the countermeasure, a letter was submitted on the other day." It is estimated that Tao Kan is also a little confused in the face of the inexplicable situation in the instant chaos in Hu and Han, and he has to think about it clearly, and then write a letter to discuss with Pei Gai.

In fact, Pei Gai just groaned, and his thoughts were the same as Tao Kan's. We originally planned to suspend the army for the time being, leaving only Zhen with one in Hedong and slowly encroaching, mainly because we were worried that Shi Le, Shi Hu, etc., would send troops to the rescue because of my urgency to Liu Cang, based on the meaning of the cold of the lips and teeth. Although there was a big victory this time, the loss of grain and straw materials in Guanzhong was not small, and the soldiers were tired, so it was not suitable to go deep into the enemy territory and fight a decisive battle with the main force. If the attack is frustrated, it will add to the problem.

Although it is now believed that Liu Cang and Liu Yao may have infighting, the specific situation is unclear, and it is not enough to change the established strategy according to the situation; Second, the danger of Shi Le, Shi Hu and others gathering troops to save them still exists!

Although I have recently heard that Zu Ti sent troops to Hanoi, he could have restrained Shi Le and even Shi Hu for me. But although Hanoi is very important, it is impossible for Shile to watch the Binh Duong regime overthrow in an instant in order to seize this county, right? It's better to wait for Zu Ti to attract the main force of the Qian army first, and even defeat Shi Le, and then I will not be too late to send troops to Pingyang.

However, it will be a matter of the year after the year, and at present, we should still follow the established policy, mainly resting the soldiers and horses, and stockpiling grain. However, in response to this situation, Zhen Sui and others may be able to take a bigger step forward in the invasion of Hedong......

——————————

The exact news of Liu Yao's entry into Pingyang will not be received until Pei Gai returns to Chang'an City. It is said that Liu Yao made the inner room open the city gate, and the army rushed in, and soon took control of the court, and he didn't know how to get Liu Cong's approval. Immediately, Liu Cong issued an edict, appointing Liu Yao as the great single Yu and Ping Shang Shushi, supervising the Chinese and foreign military and making them govern.

As for Liu Cang, since he left the "Xue Qiangbi" to the north, he has not known where to go, and it is estimated that he may be wandering between Linfen and Jiangyi. Whether he will gather soldiers and horses and kill them back to Pingyang, or whether he will send an envoy to make peace with Liu Yao, it is unknown.

Pei Cai summoned Pei Xu, You Yao and others to discuss, and You Ziyuan said: "The minister wandered in Xirong, and said that Liu Yi, the puppet emperor's younger brother, was very good at Di and Qiang, and since Liu Cang harmed Liu Yi, Di and Qiang rebelled, and even fled to Hexi (many Rong troops under the Pingyang regime moved from Hexi more than ten years ago). Then Liu Cong took Liu Cang's big single and transferred it to Liu Yao, because he wanted him to Fu Rong. ”

Pei Xu also said: "The minister carefully inspected the previous war, and knew that Liu Yao's ability was above Liu Cang - Liu Yao Hu's general, Liu Yuan thought it was a fake son, how could Liu Cang be ...... by the young rusher."

In fact, Liu Cang is also in his thirties, but in terms of age and experience, compared to Liu Yao, of course, he can be regarded as a "young chong". It's just that Pei Shu suddenly stumbled when he said this, because he suddenly remembered: My brother is only thirty, younger than Liu Cang, how can I say in front of him that people must be unreliable because they are young?

Pei Gai smiled and waved his hand, not disagreeing, but said: "General Zu's ability to use soldiers is beyond my reach." "If there is another family in the court, whose identity is similar to mine, and who also has the determination to cheer up and destroy Hu, but who is older than me and has more experience than me, maybe I will let me be virtuous. It's not because there are no such passers-by, so I'm a young man who can shoulder the heavy responsibility.

He said that I understood what my brother meant-"If Liu Yao is in charge of Hu Zheng, compared to Liu Cang, I am afraid it will be very unfavorable to me." ”

Pei Xuan nodded, and then said, "Fortunately, Liu Cang is not dead!" ”

Liu Cang is a pseudo-crown prince after all, and although the title of "Da Shan Yu" on his head has been deprived, the hat of "Da Prime Minister" is still wearing - "This must be reported to Hexi and spread to Pingyang, Liu Cong was forced to compromise with Liu Yao, and he still hoped that Liu Cang would also ......"

Hu Yan next to him pointed out sharply: "I'm afraid Liu Cong may not know Liu Cong's life and death!" ”

In order to seize power as soon as possible, Liu Yao is very likely to falsely claim that Liu Cang has been killed in battle, but Liu Cong has not seen his body, and most of them do not believe it. Therefore, Liu Cong hoped that Liu Cang would still be alive, and slowly summoned the old department in order to restrain Liu Yao.

Pei Xuan nodded, and then smiled: "If Liu Cang is dead, or if Liu Yao will kill the master, it is not known." "It's because Liu Cang is not dead yet, so Liu Yao doesn't dare to take risks, he can only be a minister, not King Hu.

When Pei Gai heard this, he couldn't help but twist his beard and smile, and asked Pei Xu: "Brother is in Hedong and Pingyang, how is the cloth rowed?" may make people create rumors, saying that Liu Cang will return to Pingyang to 'protect the monarch and rebel'? ”

One can use this kind of rumor to disturb the will of the Hu and Han monarchs and ministers, and shake the confidence of the people of the two counties in the Hu and Han regimes; Second, even if Liu Cang is forced to compromise with Liu Yao, he may be forced by rumors and have to take a fight.

"I should order Zhen Sui to be cautious not to go north, in order to force Liu Cang, but it is also ...... to take Anyi in the east."
