On the eighth day of October, Guan Yi went to Jinyang in a battle. When the news came out, Yuxian, Wolf Meng, Yuci and other cities near Jinyang surrendered one after another.

"Da Sima, after counting, there are 300,000 stones of grain in Jinyang City, and there are 10,000 or 20,000 grains in each of the nearby counties. Together with the surplus food brought by our army, a total of about 400,000 stone was enough for our army to consume in March. ”

"That's not enough food. After the news spreads, Du Yuankai, who is on the party, will definitely make a move, and our grain supply may be cut off at that time. "At this time in Jinyang, in fact, the autumn harvest was not long ago, and there was a lot of food in the hands of the people, but this time Ji Han did not come to steal chickens and retreat. Therefore, this thing of robbing the people of food cannot be done.

"Brother, our army is now nearly 80,000 people. Even if Du Yuankai wants to cut off my grain route, our army can still have a battle with him. ”

"Hehe, Guowei, that's not what I said. Our army's grain route comes from Fengyi County, not to mention the long transportation distance, and it has to cross the river and climb the mountain. That Du Yuankai could have sent a small but highly mobile force to attack our grain road. Its main force held the pass and did not engage us. After a few months, it will be difficult for our army to sustain itself. ”

"What does that mean, brother?"

"You don't have to worry about the food for the time being, I have a solution, but the behavior of our army's troops, we can't be trapped in Jinyang City now, we must move quickly."

"Please show me."

"Leave 10,000 people to guard Jinyang, and the other 60,000 people will immediately go south to rest and close the south gate of Taiyuan County first!"

"Yes!"

On October 11, after initially stabilizing the situation in Taiyuan County, Ji Han's army began to move. On October 13, the main force of 70,000 troops arrived in Qi County.

"King Youxian, this place is the pasture that Cao Mengde assigned to you before, right?"

"That's right, the hated crumbs in the center and on the left are not greedy enough and keep persecuting us. We had no choice but to move west to the foot of Luliang Mountain. But it is precisely because of this that the right part of my Huns has changed from being the farthest away from the Great Sima to being the closest to the Great Sima. ”

"So, things change, and there is always a certainty. King Youxian, you are a person who aspires to be a big Danyu of the Huns, and you can be broad-minded. Treat the central and left Huns, it can't be the expression just now. ”

"Thank you Da Sima for the reminder. It's just Da Sima, and now the middle and left parts are actually two parts, but they are all under the control of Liu Bao's old horseman, Xiao Wang ......"

"Hehehe, that's it, King Youxian. Now this official is busy leading his army south to block Du Yuankai's army, and he really has no strength to help. Moreover, what we pay attention to in China is to salute first and then to soldier. Why don't you send a messenger to Lishi to inform Liu Bao first. Ask him to find a time to meet in person. If this guy comes, then everything is easy to say, if not, hehe, my rear army still has 70,000 people on the west bank of the Yellow River. When the time comes, after they cross the river, they will not go to Luliang Mountain, but will go directly west and walk away from the stone line......"

"Okay, just do as Da Sima said."

After arranging Liu Meng, Guan Yi said to Zhao Yi: "Guowei, you lead the army to continue to advance, Bo Ding, lead the personal guards to go to a place with me." ”

What Guan Yi is going to is the tomb of Prince Yun of Situ Wang Yun of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Needless to say, Wang Yun's life is needless to say, this Hanchen, who had the opportunity to save the Eastern Han Dynasty, finally completely destroyed the hope of the revival of the Eastern Han Dynasty because of personality problems, not to mention, and even involved his family to be liquidated by Li and others, and wiped out the three clans.

Fortunately, at that time, what Li Guobian and others could control was the part of Guanzhong, and there was no prince in the Kanto side. Therefore, all the Wang family members who followed Wang Yun in Chang'an lost their heads, and the Wang family who stayed in their hometown all survived.

When Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty settled down with the support of Cao Cao, he still recounted Wang Yun's merits, named his grandson as the Marquis of Ting, and paid for Wang Yun's bones to be moved back to his hometown in Qi County, Taiyuan County for burial.

Guan Yi went to worship Wang Yun's tomb at this time, in fact, it meant the same thing: Taiyuan Wang, I have this attitude, why don't you hurry over?

In the current era, the Taiyuan Wang clan is much weaker than their other relative, the Langya Wang clan. In terms of history, throughout the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Langya Wang family has always been much more prominent than the Taiyuan Wang family. However, in the end, it was the Taiyuan Wang family who became the five surnames and seven hopes. There are many reasons for this situation, but two of them are very important: First, there are many daughters of the Taiyuan Wang family, who are fair-skinned and beautiful, have good family education, and various marriages are very successful! It has received the collective support of major families in Hebei. Second, because it is close to the grassland, many foreign races unconsciously move closer to the Taiyuan Wang family when they take the Han surname after they move south to Sinicization. After these aliens changed their surnames to Wang, they would try their best to raise the prestige of the Taiyuan Wang family for the sake of their family's prestige......

"Grass people Wang Yi, meet the Han Da Sima. In the midst of the great Sima Rong horses, he was able to come to pay tribute to the tomb of his great-ancestors, and the Wang family was up and down, and he was inscribed in the five. ”

"Hehehe, Brother Zhongde doesn't have to be like this. Wang Situ is a loyal minister of my Han Dynasty, and now that the Han Dynasty has returned to Taiyuan, in the case that our emperor cannot be there for the time being, this official is now coming to worship. ”

After the hypocritical politeness, Guan Yi began to take the initiative to lead the topic to the right thing: "My Han intends to dominate the world and send troops to the east. Although this move is in line with the general righteousness of the world, but in the end, the people of Taiyuan have suffered a military disaster, and the Zhongde family has not been affected, right? ”

"Fortunately, the military discipline of the army under Da Sima is very good, and the grass people do not feel any discomfort."

"That's good. Well, this Zhongde, I can't hide it, in order to avoid the two pincers arranged for me between Du Yuankai's Bingzhou and Sizhou, I had to lead the army to rummage through Luliang Mountain. This grain route is very unstable. So, I don't know why Zhongde taught me? ”

"Da Sima, our Taiyuan royal family is a descendant of the Duke of Qian. His family motto is to be loyal to the dynasty. The great-grandfather of the grass people ate Han Lu and was loyal to the Han family. Uncle Yanyun Gong (Wang Ling, who was wiped out by Sima Yi in Huainan's rebellion) ate Wei Lu and fought for the Cao family until the last moment. And I, Wang Yi, now eat the grain of the Jin Kingdom. ”

Phew! Your Wang Yun won't talk about him first, just talk about that Wang Ling, where is it for Cao Wei to fight until the last moment? didn't fight a single battle, and when he saw Sima Yi coming, he surrendered directly. I thought that Sima Yi would let himself go if he admitted defeat, but he didn't know that the old thief who looked at the wolf was so ruthless. And what about you, Wang Yi? Hehe, if there is no me, you will first take refuge in Shi Le in the future, and then because Shi Hu is too brutal, you will go to the Eastern Jin Dynasty to join the Langya Wang family.

"Well, the Wang family is loyal and martyrful, and Yi is extremely admired. So, how about Yi conquering Zhongde here as the Taiyuan Taishou of my Han Dynasty? In this way, Zhongde is a Hanlu. ”

"Hey, it's not that Wang Yitian is shameless, it's really for the sake of tens of thousands of people in Taiyuan County, so he has to make it difficult."

"Good! That's it. So, can Zhongde teach me? ”

"Da Sima, this Jinyang City and its surroundings are all river valley basins in the mountains, and the annual output is quite a lot. Moreover, because in the past three years, Wang Shizhi has guarded and merged the state and strictly investigated smuggling. The trade routes of the annexed states were actually cut off. As a result, the warehouses of the major families in the state were filled with grain, but could not be exchanged for other goods......"

"I see, I understand. So, how about leaving this matter to Zhongde to handle? This official asked for 1 million stone of grain in advance. It's easy to say the price or anything, and I don't want money to give me a nine-percent discount on the products of the Fuxing Society! ”

"The subordinate official receives the order, and he will live up to the trust of the great Sima!"

So soon to claim to be a subordinate official? You're really an official fan. Hey? Why aren't you leaving?

"Da Sima, the lower officials still have something to ask for."

"Wang ...... Please speak too much. ”

"There is a woman in the Xiaguan clan, twenty-nine years old, who has admired Da Sima for many years......"

......"Ah, haha, this, Zhongde, this official is thirty-nine years old, I'm afraid it's not suitable, right?" ”

"Where, what about the hero of the world, even if he is ninety-nine years old?"

Can you be a little more shameless?! Hey, no matter what, before completely defeating Du Yuankai's Bingzhou legion, as long as you can stabilize the source of food. It's not impossible to sacrifice a little.

"In this case, the official should take this matter. It's just that our army is still fighting now, and the specific matters will be discussed in detail after the war. ”

"Of course. In this way, the lower officials hurried to do things. Da Sima rest assured, within a month, one million stone of grain, absolutely a lot of grain will be sent to the treasury designated by Da Sima! ”
