Shi Le first retreated from Hanoi to Ji County, and then before returning to Xiangguo in the north, the general Guo Heiluo led a group of troops and horses to the east, not only forcing the impatient Shao Xu back to the city of Yanci again, but also threatening the Henan region, forcing Su Jun and Feng Long to relieve the siege of Linzi.

However, although the land north of Guanggu was preserved, most of Jinan County centered on Licheng in the west fell into the hands of the Jin people, and Su Jun and Xi Jian in the east also officially advanced the battle line from Weishui to Juzeshui - Cao Wei's territory shrank by more than half.

Last winter, relatively speaking, Zhao Fang's losses were relatively large, although he once captured Lu Zicheng, forced Huan Xuan to death, and defeated Zhen Sui in Qinbei, but Shi Hu's department was defeated in Yanzhou, losing nearly 10,000 soldiers, and the general Hu Yanmo surrendered to the enemy, and the gains could not make up for the losses. The situation on the Jin side was much better, of course, the most unlucky was Cao Wei.

Shi Le couldn't help but be haunted by this, so he ordered Zhang Bin and Zhang Jing to plan another move. Zhang Jing suggested that we should attack the second time first, completely cut off Shao Xu's appendage, and subsidize Cao Wei to a certain extent; Zhang Bin said: "The minister was reluctant to take such a strategy, but the situation dictated that he had to ...... it."

Shi Le asked him, "Don't play dumb riddles, what is the best way to teach me?" ”

Before Zhang Bin could answer, Zhang Jing couldn't help but interject and said, "Taifu wants to follow Qin Xiang Fan Ju's example, right?" ”

Zhang Mengsun couldn't help but sigh secretly, and said in his heart Zhang Jingshi is also a wise and resourceful person, why do you want the party to engage in infighting with Cheng Yao, and refuse to work with me to help the king? Is he jealous of my power? After all, he is so much younger than me, and I may be hanging up in a few years, so after I go, he will be able to press Cheng Ziyuan and be the mastermind of the king, so what's the hurry?

was forced to nod and said, "What Zhang Zhongshu said is true." The so-called 'Qin Xiang Fan Ju' is that in the past Qin and Zhao fought for the hero, fierce battle on the party, Wang Ji could not destroy Lian Po, so Fan Ju offered a plan, bought Zhao Chen in Handan, spread rumors, Yun Qin people were afraid, not Lian Po, but Zhao Kuo, prompting King Zhao to be handsome in front of the ......"

Shi Le said: "After that, I have also heard that Zhao Yi Zhao Kuo, and Qin Yi Bai Qi, that is, Yu Changping broke the Zhao army, killing 400,000 people, and the Zhao State declined because ......of this" Speaking of this, I couldn't help but sigh: "If I have such a famous general as Bai Qi, why am I afraid of Pei Gai and Zu Qi?" ”

Zhang Bin shook his head and said, "No." Xi Lian set up bases at all levels of the party to resist the Qin army, if it was easy to break Zhao with white, why did Fan Ju spread rumors and make Zhao order Zhao Kuo? Although Bai Qi is stronger than Lian Po, when he is prepared, he will attack his stronghold, and there is no chance of winning, and it is clear - if His Majesty is personally recruited, and there are Taiwei and other generals who can support each other, they will not be able to win Hanoi in the end. For this reason, I have to use Fan Ju's wisdom. ”

Shi Le was a smart man, and immediately twisted his beard and asked: "Taifu's intention, I should also send people to spread rumors in Luoyang, so as to divide the monarchs and ministers of Jin, and even make the Jin lord not use Pei Wenyue, just like the king of Zhao in the past, don't you need Lian Po?" However, if you want to make Jin Yi handsome, who is easy to take for good? ”

Zhang Bin replied: "It's inconvenient for others. In the past, Zhao Kuo's father, Zhao Hao, was as famous as Lian Po, and he was accustomed to attacking, and rarely insisted on things, so Fan Ju was interested in Zhao Kuo. Now Pei Wenyu is in charge of several states, and he is the ruler of Jin, even if the ancestor is in terms of fame and merit, it is difficult to oppose him, let alone others? We are waiting to spread rumors, and we should say that Pei Wenyue has a heart of disobedience......"

Shi Le frowned and asked, "But what is Pei Wenyue's heart?" I also often think, if the Han is still there, although Liu Yongming (Liu Yao) is the auxiliary, but its lord is a son, am I willing to accept your invitation to practice the honor? It is easy to be in Jin, Pei Wenyue's authority, above me, Zu Shizhi is famous, not as good as Liu Yongming, and the Jin lord is weak, what is the difference with Liu Huan? Pei Wenyue really has the tendency to be self-reliant, why is he still obsessed with the theory of corruption and loyalty? ”

Zhang Bin replied: "Pei Wenzhi does not betray Jin, because His Majesty is here; Just as the ministers in the past advised His Majesty, when the Han is here, he should not easily practice Zuo. However, regardless of whether he has this intention or not, as His Majesty said, its momentum has been achieved, so how can the Jin lord not be jealous? As in the past, Liu Shiguang (Liu Cang) and Liu Yongming's jealousy of His Majesty are also. It can spread rumors, and Yun Qi will be in Guanzhong to disguise the monarch and ministers of Jin.

"If he is self-reliant because of his words, then Jin is also divided into two points, I can break Luoyang first, and then make an appointment with Pei Wen to compete in the Central Plains, it will be easy. If he is not self-reliant, he will be jealous of the Jin lord and lose the hope of the generals, and he can only cut off Guanzhong, and not go east to King Qin, which is beneficial to my Zhao. And if the ancestor is sick, it is not difficult to destroy the Jin; If it recovers, or will lead the army to fight Guanzhong, or because of Pei Wenyue's encounter, there is a hatred of the bird to hide the bow, how can he go east again and go all out with the thunder strike of the royal master? ”

When Shi Le heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Taifu really has a good plan, and he will definitely weaken the power of the Jin people!" But then he said: "After returning to Xiangguo, I will discuss with Cheng Ziyuan how to plan ......."

——————————

Besides, Pei Gai led the army back to Luoyang and met Sima Ye. Sima Ye asked, "Since the thief has retreated, why is the great Sima unwilling to pursue and kill him?" ”

Pei Gai explained: "The thieves are not exhausted, and the grain is not exhausted, but they retreat because they have no gain, not defeated. In this case, its army must be reorganized, and it can be turned back at any time, and if it pursues, it may not be able to win, but it is in the hands of the thief. Therefore, the ministers did not chase them, and the whole division returned to His Majesty. And when I am next year, I will be stronger and weaker, and my grandfather will be sick, so I can send a large army to take Hanoi completely. At that time, the army of the ministers went north and merged with the state, and the ancestor went straight to Xiangguo. ”

Sima Ye was confused when he heard it, but he didn't say anything, but just praised Pei Gai a few words. Pei should take the opportunity to play, first of all, because of Zhen's funeral teacher, although he still retained his position as the general of Zhenxi, he asked the imperial court to remove him from the title of Yitong and the third division; At the same time, Li Ju, Guo Yu and others will fight in Hanoi, each with its own merits, and I implore the imperial court to commend it.

After retiring from the dynasty, Yin Qiao deliberately approached to greet Pei Gai, and then said in a low voice: "Situ has something important to discuss with Pei Gong, and I hope that Pei Gong will take the time to visit." ”

Pei Caixin said that Liang Fen wanted to see me, why didn't he want to tell me in person, but sent you over to deliver the message quietly? This must be an attempt to hide people's eyes. So he bowed his head and said that he understood, so he changed his clothes that night and secretly visited Liang Fen.

After the two met in the study, they exchanged a few words of greeting, and then got to the point, Liang Fen said with a solemn face: "Recently, there have been some rumors in the capital that are not good for Pei Gong, and Pei Gong is careful. ”

When Pei Gai heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then arched his hand and said: "I am returning to Luoyang, and I have not heard anything in the market, so what rumors are not good for me, and I hope that Situ will teach." ”

Liang Fen said, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, in the land of Duyi, there are many scholars, and the people in the city also have more food and clothing. Since the return of the Son of Heaven to Luo, various rumors have never stopped among the people, including saying that Pei should have the intention of separating the country, saying that he Liang Fen and Xun Song are Pei Gai's mouthpieces; It is even said that the Sima family has no virtue, which leads to chaos in the world, so it is impossible for the Son of Heaven to have a son, and most of them will be the last ......

People of insight are just laughing at this, no one will take it seriously, and there is no need to go out of their way to pursue the people who spread the rumors.

But in the past half month, these rumors have suddenly become very loud, and a lot of new content has been added that makes people suspicious.

For example: "Yun Pei Gong was trapped in the camp in the past, and he was really afraid of Shile, so he relegated his troops to Hanoi, and did not dare to attack each other, hoping that the thieves would retreat by themselves." If the ancestor can't afford it, I'm afraid that the thief will have no opponent in the end, and the Jin Sheji is afraid that it will be ...... again."

Pei Gai said with a smile: "There is a time when the war must be advanced, and there is also a time when it must be defended, the villagers are ignorant, speculate, and it is an ordinary thing, so why care." "Similar to the keyboard politician, he has seen a lot in his later life, and always feels that the country should maintain a tough offensive posture at all times, otherwise it is the cowardice of the leadership and the incompetence of the government...... If you listen to those people, maybe there will be another absurd thing about Cixi declaring war on all the powers.

Liang Fen didn't smile, leaned a little closer, and said to Pei Gai: "In addition, there is still a prophecy, which has also spread all over Dugi. ”

"What's that?"

"Yu Yun: 'One day down, easy to drive; One day up, Qin Dangxiong. Those who go against each other are violated, and those who wear clothes are obedient. ’”

When Pei Gai heard this, he twisted his beard and muttered.

This rumor is not difficult to understand, of course, it is even more difficult not to reverse the little expert Pei Wenyu. The so-called "sunset and sunrise" of course refers to the vision of the red sunset and the rising again not long ago, so the proverb is deconstructed in response to the celestial phenomena; "Easy to drive" refers to changing a carriage or driver, to put it bluntly, the position of "Sima" will be replaced; And "Qin Dangxiong", Qin refers to Guanzhong......

"Those who contradict each other" is a "non" word, plus the word "clothes" in the next sentence, which is "Pei"; This is "back", "violation", and "obedience...... Pei Caixin's meaning couldn't be more obvious, don't you know to add a little more useless information to cover it up?

Liang Fen looked at Pei Gai and reminded word by word: "I suspect that this prophecy must be man-made!" ”

Pei Caixin said Of course it is man-made, old man, do you really believe that rumors are God's will? But who made it to himself, and what is his purpose? So he asked Liang Fen rhetorically: "Situ thinks, who is bold enough to do this?" ”

Liang Fen paused for a moment, and then replied: "The thief knows that he is above the battle array, and it is difficult to defeat Pei Gong, is it a false prophecy to divide my monarch and ministers?" Or the disaster is within the Xiao wall, it is not known. ”

He made half of the way through it, and the other half was vague. The so-called "woe is within the Xiao Wall" refers to the traitorous ministers in the court spreading rumors to slander Pei Gai, and most of them are either the Xun family or the Zu family. But in the end, Liang Fen added: "Zu Shishao has been put outside, and Shiyan is loyal and kind, and he will not do this." "Excluding the Zu clan, then the only thing left is the Xun group and its Henan party.

Pei Gai smiled: "Or the matter of my ancestor army being the Seventh Army has annoyed Captain Xun, and I don't know ......."

Liang Fen advised Pei Gai that he should not ignore these rumors, and it was best to send strange people to secretly investigate and try to find out the mastermind behind the scenes. Pei Gai waved his hand, as if he didn't care, and said: "The right should be a rumor created by the thief, and if you are suspicious of your colleagues, it will cause turmoil in the court—I don't do it for this." The big husband is above board, why be afraid of rumors? If you add a visit, it is easy to sit down, but if you see the blame, then the blame is self-defeating. ”

After a few more conversations, Pei Cai saw that Liang Fen had nothing else to say, so he left immediately. Liang Fen sent it to the door—because it was a secret visit, so it was inconvenient to send it outside the door—and then returned to the study, where he saw another person sitting in the place where Pei Gai had just sit, sitting and meditating.

This person is not him, it is Shangshu Liang Yun, who is Liang Fen's nephew. Seeing Liang Fen coming back, Liang Yun immediately got up and saluted, and then asked: "Hearing the meaning of Da Sima, he refuses to get rid of Xun Dang, what can I do?" In fact, when Liang Fen and Pei Gai were talking just now, Liang Yun hid behind the screen and eavesdropped.

Liang Fen sat down and said with a wry smile: "Pei Wenyue is afraid of the turmoil of the court, and it is inconvenient to go all out to attack the thieves, so he is to endure each other - it's a pity that Taiwei Xun doesn't think about it." Immediately corrected his sitting to sit in the basket, raised his hand and beat his kneecap: "The old man has severe rheumatism, and it is difficult to walk......

Liang Yun was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly persuaded him: "Taiwei Xun wants to hold power for a long time, General Zu is sick, and they are becoming more and more unscrupulous, only Situ can resist him." Xun Jingyou goes, if Situ resigns again, what will happen to us? What will happen to my Wu Shi Liang? I implore Situ, don't make such a decadent statement! ”

Liang Fen squinted at Liang Yun, lowered his voice and said: "I will go to the throne, the queen is still my surname Liang, and Pei Gong is in the Guanzhong, so how can it hurt my Liang family?" Wouldn't you read "Lao Tzu"? It is said that 'after the body and the body first, outside the body and the body' also. And ......"

After a pause, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he said, "In this way, it may not be in line with Pei Gong's intentions." ”

——————————

Pei Gailiuluo five days, during which he also went to pay homage to his father Pei Song, as well as the newly built tomb of his brother Pei Song, and then led Zhen Sui and other troops to set off to return to the west.

This year, according to the plan of last year, the yuan was officially changed to Yanping. Then in the spring of the first year of Yan Ping, the Luoyang Dynasty underwent major personnel changes that were unexpected and incomprehensible to outsiders.

First of all, Situ Liang Fen resigned due to old age and illness, Sima Ye issued an edict twice to retain, and Liang Situ resigned three times, and finally removed him from the titles of Situ and Lu Shangshushi, but because of his previous achievements, he was promoted to the rank of Xuancheng County Duke. Immediately ordered Taiwei Xun to record the book.

In fact, Xun Taiwei is older than Liang Situ, he is already in his sixties, and his health is not necessarily healthy, but since he did not take the initiative to resign, he is currently in the name of the court.

The henchmen of the Xun clan went to congratulate one after another, and finally the Xun group retreated from everyone, leaving only the right servant to shoot Xun Di and the secretary to serve the imperial Shi Xun Min - both of them are the sons of Xun Fan and the nephews of the Xun group.

Xun Group asked the two nephews: "The rumors that have been spread in the capital recently, have you heard of them?" ”

Er Xun nodded, and Xun Di said: "This statement of Da Sima has the intention of betraying the Jin Dynasty and becoming self-reliant, and it will be spread by the thieves, with the intention of separating my Jin monarch and ministers." ”

Xun Group smiled bitterly: "But I'm afraid that Liang Situ and Pei Da Sima don't think so, or they are suspicious of my Xun ......."
