Chapter 425: Meng Kuo's revenge
Different from the situation where the brothers of the vassal states turned against each other for the throne, back then, when Lin Feng ignored the government and did wrong, Lin Xiao did have the idea of replacing him, but after Lin Feng suddenly woke up, his performance became better and better, leading the army to fight in the east and west, the Yan State became stronger and stronger, and there was hope for rejuvenation, so Lin Xiao completely dispelled the idea of overthrowing Lin Feng's throne, but replaced it. :efefd
Having witnessed the decline of the Yan State, the situation of the vassal states eyeing the Yan State, Lin Xiao knew that the Yan State had today's achievements were not easy to come by, if the Yan State fell into internal friction, the efforts of the monarchs and ministers of the Yan State for several years would be completely ruined, and the blood of countless children of the Yan State would be shed in vain.
What's more, Lin Feng trusted him very much, and handed over all the 200,000 troops that recruited Donghu to him to take care of, which was rarely seen in the vassal states.
Therefore, the matter of the brothers in the wall will never be staged in the Yan Kingdom, after the matter is settled, Lin Xiao slowly walked out of the Jinluan Palace, Ashina and A Kui followed, Lin Xiao said lightly: "Order, although Emperor Liang was captured, he must not be despised or ridiculed, by the way, the good life entertains General Feng Yi"
After all, Liu Wenlong was still a high-ranking emperor not long ago, and when he was suddenly captured, there must be a gap in his heart, and besides, he was ready to marry Liu Yutong, and he didn't want to be too simple and rude.
"General rest assured" Ashina said, quickly took two steps forward, and said in a low voice: "General, what should Liu Yutong, the princess of Lianggong do?"
As Lin Xiao's cronies, Ashina knew that Lin Xiao would rather offend the Song army than lead the first attack on Suiyang City.
On that day, when Jinyang City was broken, the emperor wanted to reward him with the princess of Jinguo, and he said that he had a favorite person, and Liu Yutong was one of them.
Now Suiyang City has changed hands, Liang Palace has been broken, Liu Yutong is called a prisoner, and it is easy for Lin Xiao to get Liu Yutong.
Lin Xiao turned around, stopped, touched his chin, and was stunned for a while: "Wait for Zat, Kamon led the Yan army into Suiyang City, and then said, the current military is important, although the Yan army occupied Suiyang City, the Song army was eyeing it outside, so it was necessary to repair Suiyang City, burn the corpses of Suiyang City, and appease the people, it must be carried out at the same time in a short period of time, and there must be no sloppiness."
Military affairs, children's private affairs, Lin Xiao is very clear, and he will never get carried away, let outsiders turn around, and bring unnecessary problems to Yan Jun.
What's more, he beat Cao Kun violently, and he has already made trouble with the Song army, and at present, the Song army must be guarded against, even if the other party does not dare to attack blatantly and secretly make some small moves, the Yan army is unable to prevent it.
More importantly, it is easy to occupy Suiyang City, but it is not easy to govern, therefore, if the Yan army wants to reduce the resistance of Baixin in Suiyang City, it is necessary to reduce Baixin's vigilance against the Yan army.
After the flood, the houses of the people of Suiyang City collapsed and were displaced, and the atrocities of the Song State needed to be borne by the Yan State, and it happened to take the opportunity to reduce the hatred of the people of Suiyang City towards the Yan State.
"General rest assured, according to the previous plan, the last general has sent spies to ask Zat, and the two Kamon will lead the Yan army to move to Suiyang City, and within half a day, they will definitely appear in Suiyang City." Akui Dao, the Song army is outside, and it is very important to quickly mobilize the main force of the Yan army into the city, and he does not dare to be sloppy.
Ashina also took the opportunity to say: "The last general has sent someone to distribute food, and when the army arrives, the number can be expanded."
"Well, tell the commander in the army, rob without permission, and those who violate military regulations will be killed" Lin Xiao was very satisfied when he heard this, but he did not forget to warn the two deputy generals.
At noon, the sun was shining, and the haze for several days was completely dispersed under the sun. In the tent of the Song army marshal, Meng Kuo walked back and forth, with anger on his face, which was diametrically opposed to the bright weather.
Not long ago, he was ready to seize Suiyang City before the Yan army, occupy strategic places, and at the same time disgusted Lin Xiao, who expected, a large force of unknown cavalry suddenly appeared hundreds of miles away, and the plan to attack Suiyang City was stranded on the spot.
When the spies sent back the news of the identity of the cavalry that Daoming had attacked, Meng Kuo was immediately furious.
Lin Xiao was too cunning and deliberately showed weakness, making him mistakenly believe that the Yan army only had 30,000 troops to arrive at Suiyang City, and when the Song army was preparing to attack Suiyang City, the main army approached the western front, deliberately paralyzing and pinning himself down, and buying time for the Yan army to attack Suiyang City.
Now, Suiyang City has been broken, most of the members of the Liang royal family have fallen into the hands of the Yan army, and it is too late for the Song army to attack Suiyang City.
At first, he planned to take Suiyang City and increase the prestige of the Song army, but now because of Lin Xiao's preemptive strike, things have been completely disturbed.
The Yan army captured Suiyang City, and captured the royal family members of the Liang State alive, and the prestige soared.
Breathlessly, Meng Kuo was unwilling, he led the Chen and Song coalition armies, attacked the city and plundered the land for several months, and only occupied the territory of the Liang State near the mountain. On the other hand, the Yan army, which entered the Liang State for less than a month, basically occupied the southwest of the Liang State and the border with the Zheng State, and Lin Feng led the Yan army to break into the west of Liang, according to the combat strength of the Yan army, it must have done something.
Today, Lin Xiao occupied Suiyang City, and before he knew it, the Yan army had opened up the territory from the southwest of Liang State to Suiyang City. More than 500,000 Yan troops broke into Liang State, only fighting against Feng Yi's army, or after Feng Yi was defeated by himself.
At present, whether it is the Zhao Zheng troops entangled with Ju Wentai's army, or the Southern Zhao troops in the northwest that compete with the Ma Wu army, and even the Song army, they are blocking the most elite troops of the Liang State, and they are all making wedding dresses for the Yan State.
The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became, the Yan army occupied Suiyang City, and let the Song army advance or retreat, for a while, it seemed that the only way to march to the northwest close to the Northern Zhao was to march, which was contrary to the original intention of the Song army to send troops to the Liang State.
"General, what should I do next" Bai Yufei followed behind Meng Kuo, and also thought about many questions, but he had no clue, so he couldn't help but ask Meng Kuo.
"Lin Xiao occupies Suiyang City and blocks the Song army's westward advance, and the only way to move to the northwest is at present" Meng Kuo sighed, helpless.
Hearing this, Bai Yufei said eagerly: "General, the northwest of Liang State deviates from the Bishan region, unless the empress has the intention to enter Zhao State, otherwise, the northwest territory of Liang State has little effect on Song State, and the general feels that the general should write to the empress, and at the same time want to write to the princes who want to participate in the war of Liang State, everyone temporarily boycotts the army and redivides the interests, otherwise, the more than 500,000 troops of Yan State are rampant in Liang State, and most of the land of Liang State will become the bag of Yan State sooner or later." ”
"It is a good way to redivide interests, but Yan Guo does things and never abides by the rules" Meng Kuo said, but quickly walked towards the tent and said resentfully: "Yan Guo is domineering, but this time I can't help them, except that Yan Guo wants to become the next Liang State." ”
"That's right, the partition of the Liang State is a matter of the interests of the vassal states, if the Yan State is monopolized, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the vassal states, if the two sides can't talk, without the support of Chen and Song, the Yan State will not be able to stop the Hu Ben army of the Zhao State" Bai Yufei followed behind Meng Kuo and added.
Meng Kuo pondered for a moment, and felt that Bai Yufei's proposal was extremely feasible, and the situation was not conducive to the Song State, and forcibly occupied the northwest of the Liang State, which was unfavorable to the Song State, and it seemed that the only way to achieve the expected effect was to renegotiate the division of interests.
Without hesitation, Meng Kuo walked into the tent and immediately took action.
Soon, several letters with similar contents came out of the Song army camp, heading towards Kaifeng, the imperial city of the Song Kingdom, Luoyi, the imperial city of Zhengguo, Handan, the imperial city of Northern Zhao, the imperial city of Chen, and the army of the Yan army, where Lin Feng was located.
Lin Feng had not yet received Meng Kuo's letter, but he received Lin Xiao's letter, and learned that Lin Xiao led the army to capture Suiyang City, and captured Emperor Liang Liu Wenlong alive.
After arranging military affairs, Lin Feng was protected by Cao Apu, and with a thousand blade soldiers, he returned from Yiyang County to Suiyang City.
Lin Xiao occupied Suiyang City, which had a great impact on the vassal states, and the loss of the imperial city of Liang meant that Liang had existed in name only, besides, according to Lin Xiao's deployment, the three princes of the Liang royal family escaped, and sooner or later the territory of the western line of Liang was divided because of the disagreement of the three brothers, even if all the vassal states withdrew from Liang, it would be difficult for Liang to return to the peak state of millions of Tibetan soldiers within decades.
Next, Yan only needs to quickly occupy the territory to the west of Liang, and in this battle, Yan will become the biggest beneficiary.
When Lin Feng arrived in Suiyang City with confidence, he happened to meet the spies from Song Guo who sent the letter, and after browsing the contents of the letter a little, Lin Feng entered the Liang Palace in a huff.
In the letter, Meng Kuo actually asked Yan to temporarily withdraw its troops, and the six major vassal states in the north must redivide their spheres of influence, and if Yan insists on going its own way, they will bear the consequences
After reading the content, Lin Feng directly tore the letter into powder, he hated other people's threats, but Meng Kuo didn't know what to do, and used the northern vassal states to peep into the territory of the Liang State and put pressure on himself.
At present, the Yan State does not have enough strength to resist the coalition of northern princes, and if the Song State is too strong, the Yan State is not a vegetarian.
What's more, after the Liang State was defeated, the Song State became the most powerful vassal state in the north, threatening the northern vassal states, especially the Chen State and the Zheng State, and the Song State was extremely rich.
Knowing that Lin Feng had entered the Liang Palace, Lin Xiao happily went out of the city to greet him, but when he saw Lin Feng with a bad face, he suddenly became puzzled
"Brother Huang, what's going on" Lin Xiao came to Lin Feng's side and asked with a puzzled expression.
"Meng Kuo sent a letter to the kings of the vassal states, asking for a re-division of the interests of the vassal states in the Liang State, this guy is simply looking for death" Lin Feng's tone was slightly angry, the troops of the vassal states appeared in the Liang State, everyone relied on their strength to discuss, at present, the Yan State is stronger, and Meng Kuo asked for a re-division of interests, then, if the Song State is strong, will the Yan State also have to re-spend the benefits, this is obviously a bully.
Lin Xiao followed behind Lin Feng, was silent for a moment, and said: "Brother Huang, after Emperor Liang was captured, the Song Kingdom was in a corner of peace, we must find ways to divert the attention of the vassal states to the Song Kingdom, otherwise, it will always be difficult for the Yan Kingdom to exert its strength." ”
