Nanyang Mansion, Shangguan Yin Feng Mansion

When the defeat of Yuan Huan Hebei was reported back to Nanyang, Shangguan Yin Feng was not surprised at all, this was completely in his expectation, he had said before that although the recruits recruited in Changsha were brave, they were always recruits, and they hurriedly went to the battlefield after less than a year of training, and they were all battle-hardened Liaobei soldiers.

"I expected Yuan Huan's defeat, but what I didn't expect was that he was defeated so quickly, in the final analysis, Yuan Huan was too underestimated by the enemy, so it is not surprising that he suffered such a defeat..."Shangguan Yin Feng looked at the generals in the hall, and said, in his opinion, Yuan Huan was actually defeated in his own hands...

"Lord, now the imperial court actually has no army to adjust, as far as the humble officials know, no one has responded to the conscription documents issued by the imperial court to the princes and kings in various places, and now the imperial court's troop transfer documents to the lord have also been sent to the Wei Command Envoy, how should we reply?" Although Cao Zhen is a general of Fenwei, he also serves as the commander of the Nanyang Wei Command Division, which can be said to be deeply valued by Shangguan Yin Feng...

"The 400,000 army was wiped out, counting Chai Shang and his father-in-law, the 600,000 Northern Expeditionary Army left 50,000 people to stay in Jizhou City, this Yuan Huan, too eager to succeed, it is difficult to achieve great things, but it is a pity that Yuan Huan..."

"My lord, how do we reply to the court?" Cao Zhen asked again, he heard Shangguan Yin Feng's reluctance to be implicated in Yuan Lian, which proved that Shangguan Yin Feng had a heart of love for talent again...

Shangguan Yin Feng frowned when he heard Cao Zhen's words, and then said in a deep voice: "Tell the person who sent the letter, my Nanyang soldiers are outnumbered, and the training of recruits in the Sichuan Dusi has not been completed, and there is no one to send, and I ask His Majesty the Emperor for your understanding..."

After listening to this, Cao Zhen left the hall, and his top priority now was to return to the guard and command the Si Yamen to reply to the words that had just been sent to the imperial court...

Although Shangguan Yin Feng's military system reform recruited hundreds of thousands of recruits, it was indeed a new soldier, and the consequences of going to the battlefield were almost the same as Yuan Huan, and they would collapse at the touch of a button, and the troops he could call on in Nanyang were only 50,000, and these 50,000 people were the most elite force in his hands, and he would not be sent out to support the Hebei battlefield anyway...

Besides, now that his Shenji Battalion firearms unit has just taken shape, and there is no combat effectiveness, the soldiers of the unit are stepping up their training, even if they want to put it into the battlefield as soon as possible, at least until the summer of the fourth year of the Heavenly Grant, and there can be no mistakes during this time...

Ten days later, Luoyang, Tianzhu Palace

All the issues discussed by the early dynasty this time revolved around the battle situation in Hebei, due to the defeat of Yuan Huan's army, Zhang Liang rushed over to take over and basically took over a mess, and the morale of the soldiers in Jizhou City completely fell to the bottom, and there was no fighting spirit at all, so after Yuan Huan sent people to escort back to Beijing, he took the initiative to withdraw from Jizhou City to Julu, in order to wait for Yuan Jingchu's army...

"Your Majesty, although Da Sima has committed such a mistake, the minister thinks that the crime is not to death, and please think twice..."

Zhang Song heard that someone interceded for Yuan Huan, so he stood in line, and said to Sun Long, the courtier, slowly: "Your Majesty, my 400,000 soldiers were wiped out in the battle of Yanshan, and Yuan Dasima has an unshirkable responsibility, and the old minister thinks that it should be punished according to the law..."

Gongsun Long frowned when he heard this, although he really wanted to keep Yuan Huan, but he did have an unshirkable responsibility, if he confronted Zhang Dong and Zhang Song and other old ministers, I am afraid that he would not be able to get benefits, and now he must express his position, with an appeasement of the army: "According to the law, how should Yuan Huan deal with it?" ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department stood aside, stood out of the queue resignedly, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, Yuan Dasima is the commander-in-chief, resulting in the sacrifice of 400,000 soldiers, according to the law, should be beheaded..."

As soon as these words came out, the hall was boiling, there were Bao Yuan faction, there were killing Yuan faction, Bao Yuan faction was dominated by the military department, and the killing Yuan faction was dominated by Zuo Prime Minister Zhang Dong, and the two sides had a fierce debate in the hall...

"Your Majesty, if you don't deal with it according to the law, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the families of the sacrificed soldiers, 400,000 people..."

"Your Majesty, Da Sima has followed the emperor for more than 20 years, and hundreds of battles of all sizes, and paid a lot for the imperial court, the defeat of Hebei, there are too many new soldiers, they have not experienced war, and they scattered and fled under the impact of the enemy, which led to this defeat, and the rebel general Li Yanqing suddenly arrived, which led to the great chaos of the Great Sima Army, which caused this disaster..."Liu Biao, the secretary of the military department, stood out of the queue and retorted loudly...

Seeing this, Gongsun Long coughed loudly twice, and then said slowly: "I also have an unshirkable responsibility for the defeat of Hebei this time..."

As soon as these words came out of the palace, it was much quieter, and Gongsun Long continued: "I thought that the new army was well-trained and could fight, but how did I know that this situation was happening, but in fact, I can't blame others, the sacrifice of 400,000 soldiers, I am heartbroken, but the stability of the world is indispensable, so I decided to keep Yuan Huan alive and dismiss him to see the aftermath..."

"The Emperor Shengming..."When Liu Biao heard this, he immediately echoed loudly...

Seeing Liu Biao speak, the Bao Yuan faction all knelt down and shouted 'Shengming', Zhang Dong and others had to follow the situation when they saw this, after all, now Gongsun Long has already expressed his position, Zhang Dong and the others killed the Yuan faction if they speak out again, I am afraid it will cause Gongsun Long's dissatisfaction...

"By the way, have the edicts sent to the princes everywhere have been replied?" After being silent for a while, Gongsun Long looked around at His Highness's people and asked softly...

Huangfu Nan walked out of the queue and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, there are replies from political envoys from all over the country, but none of them have promised to send troops..."

"What?" When Gongsun Long heard this, his heart tightened: "How can this be? ”

"I don't know, the political envoys from all over the country said that the troops in the jurisdiction are not enough, and they can't send troops again..."Huangfu Nan echoed, where did he dare to tell the truth, Gongsun Long gave up Ouyang Qing and He Ying and other generals who commanded the army prominently without using Yuan Huan, and it was natural to be defeated...

"Where's the general?" Gongsun Long suddenly thought of Shangguan Yin Feng, he vaguely remembered that when Nanyang swore an oath, it was Shangguan Yin Feng who took the lead in agreeing to send troops, and the princes from other places responded to him one after another: "How did the general express his position?" ”

"This..."Huang Funan was a little embarrassed, embarrassed to speak...

"But it doesn't hurt to say..."Seeing Huangfu Nan's performance like this, Gongsun Long guessed one or two, but he still showed a lot of generosity...

Huang Fu Nan pondered for a moment, and then said loudly: "The general said that the Sichuan capital is full of recruits, if he goes to the battlefield, I am afraid that he will suffer the same as Yuan Da Sima, in order to ensure the safety, please forgive the emperor..."

"Hey..."Gongsun Long sighed deeply, and he began to regret a little in his heart agreeing to Shangguan Yin Feng's decision to resign from all positions that day, including Wang Jue: "Lord Huangfu, I want you to go to Nanyang in person and summon the general back to Luoyang, how about it?" ”

"The minister obeys the order..."Although he was very reluctant, Huangfu Nan had no reason to refuse, and he knew that his trip to Nanyang would not lead to anything, and Yin Feng would still prevaricate him with various reasons when he went to Shangguan...

Gongsun Long's order was in a hurry, and Huangfu Nan had to drag his old steps and set off for Nanyang the next day...

Three days later, Nam Duong Mansion

When he learned that the person who came was Da Situ Huangfu Nan, Huang Wei personally came to the city gate to greet Huang Fu Nan to the Nanyang Mansion, and sent someone to invite Shangguan Yin Feng...

"Lord Huangfu, you have come from afar, you have missed the welcome, please forgive me..."Shangguan Yin Feng did not walk to the lobby, and he said loudly to Huangfu Nan...

After Huang Fu Nan saw Shangguan Yin Feng, he also walked out of the lobby with steps, and arched his hand: "The old man has seen the general..."Huang Fu Nan is almost sixty years old now, and he was an old man in that era, and it is not an exaggeration to call himself an old man...

Shangguan Yin Feng and Huangfu Nan walked into the lobby with greetings, and then ordered Huang Wei to serve tea, and after sitting down on the main seat, he arched his hand and asked, "Dare to ask Lord Huangfu what is the matter when he comes from afar?" ”

In fact, Shangguan Yin Feng is very clear about the purpose of Huangfu Nan's visit to Nanyang this time, the so-called selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, pretending not to know and asking him, it is okay...

Huangfu Nan put down the teacup and saluted back: "The old man came this time to ask the general to return to Luoyang for deliberations on the emperor's order..."
