63. Offensive and defensive odds

The next day, sure enough, early in the morning, Yan Xing came on a horse, followed by a richly decorated ox cart, and four guards, clothed with knives, and immediately hung bows and arrows, came to the palace of Xi Zhicai's house, and invited Xi Zhicai to tour outside the city and climb high and look into the distance.

At present, Yangcheng has been captured by the Xiliang soldiers, and the city has also been under martial law, although on the east side of the city, because Yan Xing implemented the method of forcibly conscripting military supplies, instead of sacking the city, the various li lu are still stable and peaceful.

But the head of the city originally lived in the city, but now he can only nest in Lilu Li, can not go out to the street, it is the time of panic, there is such a big battle in front of Xi Zhicai's house, the sound of cars and horses rings in the ears, the neighbors in the neighboring houses inevitably have to secretly open a small crack in the door, and secretly look at the excitement in front of Xi Zhicai's house from the crack in the door.

Now that martial law is under fire in the city, except for the big men in the Xiliang soldiers, who can walk through the city like this and come to this place.

Thinking of this, the neighbors who couldn't hide their curiosity were even more surprised, on weekdays, the drunkard was crazy and talented, poor, and had to rely on his wife to sew clothes for others, barely getting by.

Xi Zhicai stood in front of his house, he didn't have to think about it, he knew what his neighbors were thinking at this time, and he never took these philistine thoughts in his eyes, and today he still looks a little haggard after waking up after being drunk.

After meeting Yan Xing, he also readily accepted Yan Xing's invitation, but before getting into the car, he told Yan Xing that his wife was also going to the employer's house outside the city to return the sewn and washed clothes.

Yan Xing faced Xi Zhicai's request, so he naturally did not allow it, and immediately invited Xi Zhicai and his wife to get into the ox cart, driven by the guards, Yan Xing led the two guards in front, and the other two guards escorted behind the car.

A group of carriages and horses slowly drove out of the city.

Xi Zhicai was on the ox cart, and occasionally lifted the curtain in the car window, raising his eyes to see the changes in Yangcheng after a day of military accidents.

In addition to the eastern part of the city controlled by Yan Xing, Yangcheng is still stable, and other places have been sacked by soldiers to varying degrees, the martyrdom home is empty, dead and silent, and the surviving home is also afraid, the home is silent, even the cooking smoke rarely rises, the whole city, except for the Xiliang soldiers and horses stationed in the barracks shouting horses and neighing, the rest of the place is all ten thousand horses, silent.

Xi Zhicai looked at the scene in just one day, and it turned into a dead city-like Yang City, and his ears seemed to be echoing the noisy voices and cries of people and horses from time to time in the middle of the night, and he couldn't help but think in his heart:

"Although the soldiers and horses of Xiliang are strong, but looking at what they have done in Yangcheng, they are mostly evil deeds of anger and resentment, and they will kill themselves if they do more injustice, although they are reckless for a while, but Luoyang is deeply encircled, and the army goes out, after all, it is difficult to hold on for a long time, it's a pity, it's a pity!"

Xi Zhicai sighed, and the drama wife sitting next to him saw this and reached out to hold his hand that was pulling the curtain. Xi Zhicai smiled faintly, not wanting to worry his wife too much, so he lowered the curtain and gently patted his wife's slender hand with his backhand to show relief.

The two smiled at each other and didn't speak, but their hands were tightly clasped.

Out of the city, the drama wife wants to go to the employer's house outside the city, Yan Xing is not at ease, and wants to let two personal guards escort her forward, but she refuses politely, Yan Xing thought about it, she just went to the employer's house to return the clothes, if she sent two personal guards to escort on the surface, it is indeed inappropriate in behavior, but at the moment the city and outside the city are not stable, he gave the drama wife a warrant, with this warrant, she can return to the city safely, no one will stop her, and she can avoid being harassed by Dong Jun's soldiers at the city gate and other places.

After the opera wife left, Yan Xing and Xi Zhicai's carriage and horse continued to move forward, preparing to go to the nearest mountain outside the city.

After resting in the car for a while, Xi Zhicai's spirit at this time seemed to have recovered a lot, he was very familiar with the terrain of the mountains and rivers around Yangcheng, and after arriving at the bottom of the hillside, he offered to take Yan Xing to climb high and look far away, and take a look at the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers in this Yangcheng.

Yan Xing looked at the slope, although it is a gentle slope, but the mountain road is tortuous and rugged, Yan Xing and the guards ride horses to climb the mountain is naturally no problem, but Xi Zhicai is not good, even if he can ride a horse, he is only afraid of riding and is not proficient, Yan Xing does not dare to let him take the risk of riding a horse to climb the mountain, so he simply left the carriage and horse under the hillside, and left two guards here to guard, while he and Xi Zhicai, followed by two guards, hiked up the mountain.

Although Xi Zhicai was familiar with the geographical advantage, and Yan Xing and the others were strong on their feet, it still took a lot of time to circle up the mountain road and cut through thorns and thorns along the way.

Xi Zhicai has been stranded for many years, his body is thin after all, and he has rested twice on the mountain road, and Yan Xing also took the opportunity to raise his bow and his guards to hunt a mountain pheasant foraging in the forest during his rest. By the time a few people reached the top of the mountain, it was already in the middle of the day, and it took more than an hour compared to before and after.

However, the scenery on the top of the mountain is compared to the narrow mountain road, it is indeed cheerful in front of people's eyes, although this mountain peak is not the highest, but the victory is superior in geography, the scenery is beautiful, here you can overlook the big river in the north, Luoshui, Yingshui in the south, Jishan in the south, Yuyuan Pass in the west, Yangcheng in the west is the west gate of Yuzhou.

Yan Xing was quite interested, climbed to the top of the peak and overlooked, only to see that there are Song high mountain peaks in the northwest arch standing, and the clouds and orchids between the peaks are changing rapidly, and they are beautiful. There is Yingshui flowing through the southeast and flowing into the Huaishui in the southeast. Looking at the big river in the north, the sky is limited to the north and south. Then leaning on the stone to overlook the foothills, the scenery at the foot and the angle that I saw along the way when I came had a different vision, only to see the peaks and ravines under the feet blooming, the ridges are uneven, and there is a great momentum of "seeing the mountains at a glance".

"Book of Songs" has praised the famous sentence of Songgao Mountain, "Songgao Weiyue, extremely high in the sky", and the Songshan Mountain of later generations has the scenic spot of seventy-two peaks, all people climb high and look far away here, only feel that the mountain peaks are thousands of weather, fascinating.

Yan Xing looked far away to the west, behind the mountains and mountains, that was the center of the Han Empire, the imperial capital of Luoyang, further west, and the western capital of Chang'an, which lived in the solid state of Cuihan. He thought about the geographical advantages of the two capitals and the majestic palace, not only recalled that not long ago, in the military camp of the Sanfu Emperor Fu Song, Jia Xu talked about the most exciting part of the world's policies.

"To Hedong, Yiluo two places as the front rejection, the west of Longyou, Hexi of the elite horse, the south of Shu County, Hanzhong corn, according to the Guanzhong Sanqin land, advance and retreat freely, attack and defend in me, into a strong Qin momentum, so support the righteousness of the Son of Heaven, east to fight for the world, just like Qin sweep Liuhe, Hanping seven countries. Let's ask what the army is pointing to, who dares to disobey, and what city cannot be defeated. โ€

At the end of the Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms were in flames of war, and their lives were like mustard, and it was not easy to survive in the troubled times. But if you can lift a three-foot sword, like Emperor Gaozu, do the things of a great husband, point at the three Qins, the king is proud, return to the east in a battle, and make contributions for thousands of generations, wouldn't it be happy, and it would not be in vain to come to this chaotic world at the end of the Han Dynasty.

Yan Xing stood with his knife in hand, looking at the beautiful scenery of the peaks and mountains in the distance, and then looked at the Xi Zhicai who was also standing beside him.

Yesterday, he was also tempted by the temptation, I believe that with the intelligence of Xi Zhicai, he can also expect the purpose of his actions, Yan Xing invited Xi Zhicai to climb high and look far away today, just to take this opportunity to recruit Xi Zhicai to join his camp, and now there are no outsiders such as Liu Qiao, and the two personal guards are also far away, guarding around.

Yan Xing stretched out his hand and pointed to the west, and said with a generous smile:

"The two capitals are victorious, Cuihan is dangerous, remembering the Qin and Han dynasties, the heroes are competing for the deer, in the world of life, coinciding with the autumn of troubled times, thinking about the things of the husband, only hating one or two less good and peaceful confidants. If you can drive the horse across the world, strategize the world, make a thousand years of achievements, and stay famous for a long time, wouldn't it be happy. Does the drama think so? โ€

Xi Zhicai also smiled faintly when he heard this, and did not answer Yan Xing's question, but said with a chuckle:

"In the land of Cuihan, the danger is dangerous, and the fixed word may not be able to match!"

"What do you mean by this?"

Faced with Xi Zhicai's failure to answer his words, Yan Xing was a little disappointed in his heart, but since he talked about this place of Kuohan again, he must have another deep meaning, Yan Xing did not immediately get depressed, and asked according to his words.

"If Yan Jun doesn't dislike me for being noisy and shallow, I am willing to tell you a story."

"The story, okay, the story of the drama king, it must also be the words of Jin Yu, listen to it!"

Xi Zhicai turned his gaze to the peaks and mountains to the west, as if he was also looking at the terrain of Luoyang and Chang'an, and the story in his mouth came slowly.

"This matter is related to the famous general Wu Qi, when Wei Wenhou used Wu Qi to guard the West River, defending the Qin people in Hexi, Wei Wenhou died, Wu Hou ascended the throne, inspected the land of Hexi, Fuxi River down, when the boat reached the middle stream, looked at the mountains and rivers on both sides of the river, remembered the glorious deeds of his fathers, and couldn't help but sigh and said, 'Beautiful, the solid mountains and rivers, this treasure of the Wei country!'. Wu Qi was also in the boat at the time, Yan Jun knew, how did he respond? โ€

Yan Xing actually knew about this matter, and he also knew the meaning of Xi Zhicai's words, but he still said sincerely:

"Wu Qi, the world's famous general, must have outstanding opinions, please say it for me."

Xi Zhicai looked at Yan Xing's silent face, and he also admired the strength of the person in front of him in his heart, and he continued:

"Wu Qi said to Wei Wuhou, 'The solidity of mountains and rivers is not in danger in Germany. In the past, the three Miao clans left Dongting, the right Peng Li, morality and righteousness were not repaired, and Yu was destroyed. The residence of Xia Wei, the left river, Ji, the right Tai, Hua, Yique in the south, the sheep intestine in the north, the government is not benevolent, and the soup is put away. The country of Yin, the left Mengmen, the right Taihang, Changshan in its north, the river through its south, the government is not moral, and the king of Wu kills it. From this point of view, if the king does not cultivate virtue, the people in the boat will be the enemy country. 'What does Yan Jun think?' โ€

The Sanmiao country is probably in Jiangxia, Lujiang and other places in today's current dynasty, and the Sanmiao clan and Huandou, Gonggong, and Kun are collectively called the "four sins", although there is the danger of Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake, but it was destroyed by Xia Yu. The capital of the Xia Dynasty was Hedong County, and there were dangerous passes such as Dahe, Huashan, Yique Pass, and Yangjiban, but when it came to Xia Wei, it was still wiped out by Shang Tang. The capital of Yin Shang was in Hanoi, and there were dangerous places such as Mengmen, Taihang, Changshan, and Dahe, and when it came to King Zhou, it was also destroyed by King Wu of Zhou.

When Xi Zhicai talked about the story of Wu Qi and Wei Wuhou, he wanted to use Wu Qi's words to warn Wei Wuhou to point out his attitude.

Although the Xiliang soldiers fought fiercely, and the land of Cuihan was easy to defend and difficult to attack, but Dong Zhuo and others were gradually losing the hearts of the people, although he tried his best to use force and geographical advantage to redeem the disadvantage of the confrontation with the Dong coalition army in the Kwantung region, but looking at what the Xiliang soldiers and horses did in Yangcheng yesterday, he only focused on the way to win the battle, but did not pay attention to the public opinion of the people in the world, and Xi Zhicai also saw the fate of the Xiliang soldiers like Sanmiao, Xia Wei, Shang Xun and others.

Yan Xing listened to Xi Zhicai's words, and nodded with the same feeling, no matter what kind of thoughts Dong Zhuo had when he entered Beijing, but at least he knew that by the time Dong Zhuo was forced to evacuate Luoyang in embarrassment by the troops of the Kwantung Coalition Army, he had only personal grudges and anger left in his heart, and he had completely lost the vision and mind of the person who ruled the world.

Later, Dong Zhuo will continue to fall deeper and deeper into the abyss of ten thousand tribulations, trying to use pure force to kill and punish the power of the people in the world to intimidate the hearts of the people in the world, until everything he has is swallowed up by the abyss.

It's just that although he is a general in Dong Zhuo's camp, he is not a person like Dong Zhuo, and he will not be a failed Dong Zhuo, but will only strive to become a successful emperor like Liu Bang.

Therefore, Yan Xing's attitude of rejecting himself, a person from Dong Zhuo's camp, was not surprising in the face of Xi Zhicai's words, and there was not much fluctuation, he rolled his eyes and responded with a smile:

"Wu Qi's words are very true, and I also know the meaning of the king, just as the former Han Jia Changsha said, benevolence and righteousness are not applied, and the offensive and defensive trends are different. It's just that, Xijun, you and I can also set another sail, ride the wind and waves, and help each other in the same boat, Yan and Jun are definitely not people from enemy countries! โ€
