Although Yang Guang became the emperor as he wished, he did not do it steadily.

In fact, I have long heard that Yang Liang, the king of Han, is going to rebel, but that is just a rumor. When the general Qu Tutong returned to Daxing City from Jinyang, the Han King's inscription of "Zhu Yang Su to the side of the Qing monarch" also spread to Daxing Palace.

Yang Guang seemed to have expected this a long time ago, he was not surprised at all, and read it at the court meeting in a hurry, and casually threw it to Yang Su, who was standing at the front, and said, "He wants to clear the king's side?" Yue Guogong, I will order you to be the head of the march of the state. In Yiqing's opinion, how long will it take for this rebellion to be quelled? ”

Yang Sugong said: "March is enough. ”

Although I don't like Yang Su's personality at all - because of his old accounts of teaching his son, but for Yang Su's military talent, I am also convinced that a person who has never fought a war is also convinced.

Yang Guang nodded with satisfaction, glanced at the people standing in the court, and said, "Wei Shangshu, you may recommend someone to be responsible for dispatching military supplies?" ”

This Wei Shangshu is Wei Ting's father, a year ago he was transferred to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, coincidentally, after Yang Guang ascended the throne, I made me a civil ministry squire, just under him, and because he often went in and out of their house to find Wei Ting, his father was quite familiar with me.

Wei Chong came out of the class and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is foolish, and the waiter Li Jiancheng can take on this responsibility." ”

Yang Guang thought for a moment and said, "Just according to Wei Shangshu's words." ”

In this way, as a waiter of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, I took on the errand of supervising the transportation of grain and grass. The so-called "before the soldiers and horses arrive, the grain and grass go first", of course, I know that the transfer of grain and grass can directly affect whether Yang Su can quell the rebellion as scheduled.

After the meeting, Yang Guang summoned me alone.

He was much more relaxed in the Liangyi Hall than at the court meeting, and when he saw me coming, he made everyone on the left and right retreat, and said to me: "Although I am now the Son of Heaven, I can't sleep at peace all the time, do you know why? ”

I actually know the reason, as early as half a month ago, I secretly went to Yu Wenhua and talked about this problem, although Yu Wenhua and I were safe and sound in the end, but no one knows how the news of the Renshou Palace change reached Bingzhou, Yang Guang has also been haunted, of course, I can't sleep at night. Yu Wenhua envied me for being a young man and making steady progress, but I envied him for being an idler, doing whatever he wanted.

I arched my hand and said, "I don't know why Your Majesty is worried, Weichen is willing to share your Majesty's worries." ”

Yang Guang turned around the imperial case and said with a serious expression: "Completed, what do you think Yang Su is?" ”

I was shocked in my heart, and said with a straight face: "Back to Your Majesty, the Duke of Yue has been in the field for a long time, and his military achievements are very great, and he is the ...... of the country."

Before I finished speaking, Yang Guang waved his hand impatiently and said in a deep voice: "I am asking about his ambition. If he really has a disobedient heart, colludes with Yang Liang, and strikes back, he can easily seize the land in Guanzhong and go straight to Kyoto. And this younger brother of mine has a weak personality and is incompetent, and at that time, Yang Su can also follow the example of Emperor Wei Wu to coerce the Son of Heaven to command the world, wouldn't it be much faster than being a small left servant in my court? ”

I thought about it, and sure enough, the so-called "rabbit dead dog cooks, bird hides the bow" is what it means. He had only just become the emperor, and he began to have suspicions, if Yang Su really came back from the rebellion, how should he be in the court? I can't help but feel a little sad for Yang Su. Even Yang Su, a person who tried his best to help him win the throne, was also suspicious, so what about my father, who is still a assassin in Longzhou, who is not so positive about the dispute between the princes?

Although I hate Yang Su, I have to say a few words for him. I thought for a while and said, "The Duke of Yue Guo is loyal to His Majesty, and I ask Your Majesty not to doubt it." ”

"Loyalty?" He sneered: "Built, you are so sure?" ”

I was a little panicked, thinking that if he thought about it further, he might suspect that Yang Su and I had joined forces against him. I felt a chill down my spine, and hurriedly arched my hand: "Your Majesty Mingjian." Weichen read the "Fu Zi" written by the great Confucian Fu Xuan in the Jin Dynasty, which contains Guo Jia's affairs, when Cao Cao wanted to ask Yuan Shao, worried that he could not be defeated, Guo Jia had ten victories and ten defeats, and when it came to victory, there were words such as 'employing people undoubtedly, only talents are appropriate', and now His Majesty sits in the world, the Quartet comes to the court, and there is a small chaos, why worry about it? Since the Duke of Yue Guo has promised a period of three months in the court, he must make every effort to quell the rebellion, His Majesty is very measured, so why should he doubt that the Yue Guo Gong will not be subordinate? ”

He listened to my words and stared at me thoughtfully, and said lightly: "Are you comparing me to Yuan Benchu who was defeated in the army?" ”

I was stunned, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Weichen doesn't dare." "I was so scared that cold sweat came out.

He laughed, pulled me up from the ground, and said, "I'm just joking, you don't have to take it seriously." I will leave the matter of supervising the transportation of grain and grass to you, and I can rest assured that you can start preparing immediately. ”

I arched my hand and said, "Yes." ”

Coming out of the Liangyi Palace, I felt like I had done a roller coaster, looked back at the palace door, and thought of the power of the emperor's mental skills, and couldn't help but admire Yang Guang for being a king.

I thought about it and shook my head, but it's a pity.

While I began to transfer grain from Guangtong Cang, I was thinking about Yang Su, and at this time, Ding Cheng came to tell me that he was entrusted by Yang Guang to the position of lieutenant and led the army with Yang Su.

"It seems that the emperor is suspicious of Yang Su." Ding Cheng commented when he told me about this.

I stood on the wharf of the Guangtong Canal, watched the grain and grass be loaded one by one, and laughed softly: "You understand very well. ”

Ding Cheng was speechless, and his taciturn made me miss a little bit of a person.

I said again: "Yang Su Laocheng, he knows that the emperor is a person, he can expect that the emperor is suspicious of him, but his son can't think of it, you can find a way to let Yang Xuangan know the emperor's suspicions." ”

Ding Cheng seemed to be stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Yes." ”

After a while, he said again: "The emperor ordered me to report back in time, what can I do?" ”

I thought about it for a moment and replied, "Tell the truth, that's enough." ”

This rebellion of the Han king Yang Liang added a lot of joy to my life, and according to the route of the march, I had to take the waterway from Guangtong Canal to the east to Tongguan. This is the first time I've led a troop, and although these logistics troops are not serious soldiers, there are a few people under my command who can be called upon.

Although I am only a firehead and do not really need to go to the front line to fight with people, I still studied the current situation carefully. Since Yang Guang began to seek the throne, he began to recruit troops and buy horses, and also traded horses with the Turks in the north, and he was ready to rebel, so his strength should not be underestimated. I looked at the terrain from Kunshan Mountain to Tongguan, and found that Yang Guang was either too confident in Yang Su, or he looked down on his younger brother too much-

Suppose the rebel army of Kanto enters Guanzhong through Tongguan, then Daxing City will be finished!

I looked at the Weishui slowly flowing in front of me, and suddenly realized that there was an indescribable pride in my chest, and I didn't know why I actually remembered Jing Ke, but Jing Ke was not facing Weishui. My mind raced, and I felt that there was an indescribable poetry in this situation.

I was still thinking about it there, and a samurai with armor behind me walked up to me and stood still, and said leisurely: "The wind is Xiao Xiao Xi Wei Shui is cold, and the squire is so Yaxing!" ”

When I looked back after hearing this, as expected, this familiar voice was Wei Ting speaking!

I saw that he seemed to be pulling the armor on his body very uncomfortably, and I was surprised for a long time before laughing: "Why do you look like this?" Do you want to go to Tongguan with me? ”

Wei Ting nodded seriously and smiled: "I begged my father for a long time, but he didn't agree, and then I couldn't help it, so I went directly to your majesty, and he asked me to be your adjutant and go with you." ”

I looked at him and smiled, "It seems that you are not at ease." ”

Strictly speaking, Wei Ting and I are both civilian officials, and we have no experience in marching and fighting, but fortunately, I used to mix in the Qizhou military camp for a while, and Wei Ting has actually seen a lot after the general. When I actually stood on the ship, I realized that life in the army was much more complicated than Chai Shao's description in a few words, not only was it not as easy as I imagined, but also because I was the commander-in-chief of this food transportation team, I also had to consider all kinds of problems encountered, such as the problem of running a ship aground during the dry season.

I think if I were Yang Liang, I wouldn't have to think about it, I would capture Tongguan as quickly as possible, cross the Yellow River, and go southwest to Daxing City, which used to be Chang'an. But the rumor I heard was that Yang Liang actually didn't move in Puzhou.

"I heard that the King of Han actually recalled Pei Wen'an, who commanded the army, back to Jinyang, and he didn't plan to cross the river?" Wei Ting saw that I was looking at the map, pointed to a place on the map and said to me, "If the Duke of Yue can sneak across the river and go around the back of the rebels and capture Puzhou, then the rest of the rebels will be defeated in half without a fight." ”

I looked at it and felt that he was right, and said, "I'm afraid it's too late to cross the river now." ”

Wei Ting said again: "In fact, the most important thing for the Han King to raise troops is to take advantage of the imperial court's failure to respond in time and quickly march into the army. From this point of view, this Han king is really incompetent. ”

He didn't notice when he said this that I was staring at him in amazement, and although I had known him for many years, we talked most about the messy trivialities of the court, and had never discussed the situation of war as much as today.

After he finished speaking, I looked at him and said, "What if the rebels really crossed the Yellow River and marched into Chang'an, as you said?" ”

Wei Ting replied without thinking about it: "Then I have to defend according to the situation and instigate behind the enemy." You can defend Hongnong as a barrier, and when necessary, it is not necessary to join forces with the Turks. ”

I also thought a little bit of his analysis, but I had never experienced a war, and I was not at all confident in the strategy I could think of to retreat from the enemy, and if I really faced the enemy, I might not be as decisive as he was just now.
