The second volume goes to the front in person with the sixty-first chapter of the Sui Dynasty Zhou

In Yang Jian's study, the core figures of the Prime Minister's Mansion have all arrived, and Li Delin Fang and Gao Gong are not bad, and the entire study is filled with a depressing atmosphere.

Yang Jian had just received an urgent military message from Heyang. Marshal Wei Xiaokuan's Mansion Governor Shi Li Xun secretly reported: Liang Shiyan, Yuwen, and Cui Hongdu, the commanders of the march, showed signs of being heavily bribed by the lieutenant, so that the army did not move in Qinshui. Marshal Wei Xiaokuan also hesitated.

There were six marching commanders in the eastern army, and now three of them had accepted heavy bribes from each other, and once the eastern army was defeated, the remaining two would be victorious.

Zheng Yi jumped up first and said in a panic: "Prime Minister, it's better to change the generals and remove the three people!" ”

Liu Fang was also confused and at a loss: "Then, who should be sent?" ”

A total of fifteen marching commanders were dispatched to the three routes, and three of them had to be replaced at once, even if someone could be replaced, it would also cause panic among the people on the front line, not to mention that these marching commanders were all experienced commanders and generals, how could so many people say that they would be replaced, but if they were not changed, the military situation would change rapidly, and in case the three commanders who took bribes defected, it was really unimaginable.

Li Delin shook his head. vetoed the proposal of the two: "Changing generals on the spot has always been a failure." In the past, King Yanhui believed in slander and replaced Le Yi with a robbery, but he was defeated by Tiandan; King Zhao Huiwen listened to the room, replaced Lian Po with Zhao Kuo, there was the defeat of Changping, and 400,000 Zhao pawns were killed for Bai Qikeng......"

Li Delin didn't listen to Yang Jian's persuasion, and insisted on killing the other three kings, in fact, he was very annoyed in his heart, in his opinion, it was obvious that it could be done step by step, and let Yang Jian kill it like this, and it turned out to be all bad, sure enough, didn't the rebellions in various places come, just got on Yang Jian's boat. Everyone knows that he is regarded by Yang Jian as his right and left hand, and he has no way back.

For Li Delin, Zheng Yi and Liu Fang also have a lot of grievances, they thought that they were not auxiliary political materials, and pushed Yang Jian up, Zheng Yi originally wanted to be the big Sima, Liu Fang wanted to be the big boss, only under the big prime minister, but because of Li Delin's opposition. Both wishes were frustrated.

Zheng Yi sneered a few times before attacking Li Delin and said: "Gongfu cites the past to prove the present, but I don't know if Cui Hongdu is Lian Po or Li Mu is Lian Po?" I don't know if Yu Yi is Le Yi or Liang Shiyan is Le Yi? ”

Zheng Yi said this because he wanted to exchange Li Mu for Cui Hongdu and Yu Yi for Liang Shiyan, Li Mu and Yu Yi were not comparable to Cui Hongdu and Liang Shiyan in terms of status and past achievements.

Gao Gong was shocked: "Prime Minister, don't do it." Li Mu and Yu Yi couldn't move, if they were transferred to Heyang, it would be equivalent to giving up Youzhou and Bingzhou to Wei Chi Yuan, which was secondary; In case the Turks go south, we don't have the barrier of the secluded annex, and they can immediately drive straight into Chang'an! Li and Yu are already two people who are used as two people, and they can't move. ”

The study suddenly fell into a dead silence, Yuwen Zhao was dead, and the Turks had an excuse to take advantage of the fire at any time, could they only wait for the possible defeat of the front line at any time. Only Yang Yong's face has not been surprised, the situation in front of him seems to be dangerous, but he is convinced that his Lao Tzu will be able to deal with it.

Seeing that his son's face was not shocked or dry, Yang Jian's heart moved: "What do you propose?" ”

"Father, although Li Changshi secretly reported that Liang Shiyan, Yuwen, and Cui Hongdu had received the gold from Wei Chi. However, they did not turn to Wei Chi Yuan, indicating that they were just holding a wait-and-see attitude, and this kind of wait-and-see will not show our defeat completely, and they can not worry about them fighting back for the time being. ”

To put it bluntly, these three people are the grass on the wall, although they accepted Yang Jian's dispatch and accepted Wei Chi Yuan's gold, they just wanted to see which side had the advantage and then fell to which side, and Wei Chi Yuan's gold could be exchanged for them delaying the attack. But in the case that Wei Chi Hui did not show victory, it was impossible to take refuge in him, after all, the court occupied the name of the righteous place, and although Yu Chi Hui re-established the Son of Heaven, it was still not right. I don't know how many examples of this kind of behavior there are in later generations, but Yang Yong naturally sees it clearly.

"Well, what Wu'er said is reasonable, Gongfu. What do you think. ”

"Back to the prime minister, what the prince said is exact. It's just that the three of them are stagnant, and the strength of our eastern front will be greatly weakened, and it will also make the rest of the soldiers hold a wait-and-see attitude, if it continues like this, it will be a matter of time before our army will fail. When it comes to dissentness, it is also born from wait-and-see. When there are more people waiting and watching, there will be people with different aspirations. Once the wait-and-see situation is eliminated, the dissident will naturally disappear. ”

"Okay, which of you can be the overseer." After Yang Jian finished speaking, his eyes turned to Zheng Yi and Liu Fang, the candidate for this prison army must be a close confidant of the Prime Minister's Mansion, there are people who advance and retreat, and the four people present are very suitable, but Li Delin and Gao Gong Yang Jian have always been regarded as left and right hands, and they don't want to let them go, so they naturally belong to Zheng Yi or Liu Fang.

Seeing Yang Jian's gaze looking at him, both of them shuddered, they were both timid and afraid of things, otherwise when Emperor Xuan died, he would not be attached to Yang Jian, and if they were to go to the battlefield at this time, it would be tantamount to letting them die.

Zheng Yi preemptively said: "Prime Minister, the old mother of the lower official is in the hall, it is really difficult to give a doppelganger." ”

Seeing Zheng Yi bring out his mother, Liu Fang was anxious: "Prime Minister, the lower official has never served in the military, and when he arrives at the front line, I am afraid that the soldiers will not accept it and become chaotic, otherwise, the lower official will definitely be able to take the initiative to ask for help." ”

Seeing the two of them shirking like this, Yang Jian was very unhappy in his heart, but these two people had made great efforts to assist their own government, but it was not easy to force them, so he suddenly frowned, Gao Gong's heart moved, and he paid for everything in the Prime Minister's Mansion to let Li Delin compete for the first, so it was better to go to the front line.

Just when Gao Gong wanted to take the initiative to ask for help, Yang Yong spoke first: "Father, the child is willing to go on a show." ”

"You?" Yang Jian looked at his eldest son, if the eldest son was a few years older, he would be the best candidate with his identity, but this matter was too important, Yang Jian couldn't help but worry that his son was too young and easy to be impulsive, and if he went to the front line to command indiscriminately, he would suffer.

Yang Yong saw his father hesitate and hurriedly said

Rest assured, the child will definitely not move when he arrives at the front line, and if Wei Yuan stays in the Beijing Division, Yang Yong will not be able to exert his influence at all, and now there is an opportunity to fight side by side with various leading generals. Of course, Yang Yong has to catch it.

"This ......" Yang Jian couldn't help but look at Li Delin, the last time he fought with the Turks, although his son showed his ability to lead the troops, but he was too risky, now although the rebels are huge, but the court still has an absolute advantage, as long as it is pressed step by step, most of the victory is the court, if you take risks. On the contrary, it may create an opportunity for the other party to take advantage of.

Li Delin is also struggling in his heart, Yang Yong's identity is undoubtedly very suitable, but young people are inevitably hot-blooded and impulsive, if they have a conflict with Wei Xiaokuan, the result will be worse. Just say it directly, it is inevitable that Yang Yong will be offended, Yang Jian made it clear that he wants to be the emperor, and Yang Yong will be the prince in the future, and it is not a good thing to offend the prince.

Gao Gong's heart moved: "Gong is willing to be the deputy of the prince." Let's go to the prison together. ”

Li Delin secretly scolded Gao Gong for slipping his head, but with Gao Gong going with him, he naturally had no scruples in the future: "Prime Minister, since Brother Zhaoxuan is willing to go, the prince can go." ”

"Well, the land is still young, so with Brother Zhaoxuan as the main envoy and the deputy envoy, we will go to the front line to supervise the army together." Yang Jian settled the matter.

"Thank you, Father." For the deputy Yang Yong didn't care. What I care about is this opportunity to go to Beijing.

Gao Gong and Yang Yong only went to supervise the army, so they didn't bring many people, Yang Yong and his own soldiers only sent more than 200 people as guards, and Gao Gong only took Li Hun and Yu Rang to the front line together.

Yuan Qing'er and Yang Yong have only been married for half a month, and her husband is about to leave. Naturally, he was reluctant to send Yang Yong outside the city, and only shed tears and said goodbye at Baqiao.

Out of Chang'an, a group of people suddenly hurried up, a few days later, has come to the front line, Wei Chi Zhen to the city as the capital, the two sides of the army against the place is still in Qinshui, due to the hesitation of the three armies of the soldiers, at this time even the bridge above the water has not been erected. More than 200,000 troops could only stay on the west bank of the water. Hearing the arrival of the court supervision army, Wei Xiaokuan hurriedly recruited the generals of the Eastern Front to greet him.

Wei Xiaokuan, Liang Shiyan, Yuwen, Yuan Harmonic, Yuwenshu, Cui Hongdu, and Yang Su are all important ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they all have the dukes of the country.

However, everyone knows that the emperor's edict is the meaning of the prime minister's mansion, and if they accept the emperor's edict, they will also accept the prime minister's command. The prime minister personally acted as an envoy, and no one dared to slack off. Many people traveled dozens of miles to Pingyang County, the closest to Xishui, to greet Gao Gong and Yang Yong.

Wei Xiaokuan is already an old man in his seventies, with white flowers on his head, his whole body is covered in armor, and he looks energetic, and under the city of Pingyang County, he received the holy decree brought by Gao Gong and asked the two: "This official has prepared a place for the envoys to stay in Pingyang County, and the two envoys are tired from the journey, so they will rest temporarily in Pingyang County." ”

Gao Gong smiled and said: "No, I waited until the front line to be an overseer, but it was not enjoyment, what is the situation on the front line, and I will ask Guogong to explain a thing or two." ”

The front line of "this ......" is really as Li Xun reported secretly, the wait-and-see situation is serious, and Wei Xiaokuan is not without opinions on Yang Jian's killing of the four princes together, so he has not urged his subordinates to enter the army, and these things are naturally unwilling to be exposed in front of the envoy. He couldn't help but look at Yang Yong, thinking that the prime minister's son was only a teenager, Gao Gong could ignore the fatigue and concentrate on supervising the army, Yang Yong was pampered, and I was afraid that he would have wanted to rest a long time ago.

Yang Yong smiled slightly: "The military situation is urgent, if the prince is not too tired, he can talk to me while walking." Yang Yong knew that these soldiers of the Xuanlong Army could be obedient to him, and these people in front of him probably wouldn't really take themselves seriously, and made up his mind to only follow the steps of Gao Gong, barely provoking the counterattack of the front-line generals, as long as he showed his talents at the right time, the goal of going to the front line this time would be achieved.

Since the principal and deputy envoys were the same, Wei Xiaokuan suddenly couldn't hide it anymore: "Back to the envoy, the traitor Wei Chi Hui sent his son Wei Chi to arrange twenty miles along the coast to prevent our army from crossing the river, and our army did not have enough ferries to cross the river for the time being. ”

Gao Gongfa asked, "Why don't you build a bridge?" ”

Wei Xiaokuan was stunned for a moment, and Liang Shiyan replied beside him: "Envoy Qin, rest assured, our army will be able to build a bridge tomorrow." He, Yuwen and Cui Hongdu accepted the gold sent by Wei Chi Yuan, and at this time, for fear of Gao Gong's suspicion, he hurriedly added it on the side.

Gao Gong gently lifted the question: "In this case, then wait for the good news of the general." ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, obviously the two envoys in front of them had no intention of pursuing it, Gao Gong said loudly: "Everyone, the prime minister wants us to tell you a good news, Wei Chi Yi is already confused, he sent his nephew Wei Chi Yi to Bingzhou to let Shen Guogong rebel against the court with him, Shen Guogong is well aware of the righteousness, has been escorted into Beijing by Wei Chiyi, and now Shen Guogong has led the army, has returned all Wei Chiyi's territory to the court, and Yu Lao Zhuguo has also sent troops behind Wei Chi Hui, so that Wei Chi Yi can stay in the city and move. As long as you break the thief army in front of you, the court will not hesitate to reward you. ”

This news really made everyone feel uplifted, the reason why everyone waited and saw was that they couldn't tell who lost and who won, now Li Mu and Yu Yi have both taken action, everyone waited and saw and suddenly put down, Yu Yi started from the Western Wei Dynasty, it can be said that after five dynasties, Li Mu is also an old traitor, these two people have obviously seen the situation clearly. And Yu Yi is also Zhou Taizu's son-in-law, he can not care about the gains and losses of the Yuwen family, and others can not care even more.

"Rest assured, we will do our best to defeat this thief in front of us." Wei Xiaokuan was the first to express his position, and then the others did the same, saying that the enemy army that they had been holding for more than 20 days was like a chicken and a dog, and it would break if it was touched.

Gao Gong and Yang Yong both praised the generals' statements, but they still refused Wei Xiaokuan's kindness to let the two live in Pingyang County, and everyone passed through the city and came directly to the front line of the water.
