On the second day of August in the first year of Hongguang, Yuan Huan's army broke through Xuchang, captured Xuchang Taishou Chen Yi, and all the state capitals under Xuchang's jurisdiction surrendered.
On the fifth day of the first month of August, Anyang Taishou Murong Jin killed the prison army Zhang Zhi, raised the banner of 'Fengtian Jingnan', led the army of 50,000 to the west, and collected a total of 11 counties in Xinxiang and Tangyin Prefectures along the way, and collected nearly 30,000 militiamen, and went to Xingyang to join forces with Shangguan Yin Feng; After Luoyang learned the news, he was shocked, He Jing immediately ordered Ouyang Qing to divide 20,000 troops from Jizhou, led by Ouyang Qing's son Ouyang Min, to attack Anyang, and at this time Anyang can be said to be an empty city, Murong Jin took all the surrounding military horses with him when he left...
(Xingyang, Shangguan Yin Feng Daying)
"Lord Qi, Sichuan West is coming to report..."
Shangguan Yin Feng was thinking about how to attack Wen County, but was interrupted by Jia Fu, seeing that it was him, he took a look: "What is the matter with Zhang Tao?" ”
"It's not Master Zhang, it's Feng Yi..."Jia Fu explained...
When Shangguan Yin Feng heard Feng Yi, his eyes lit up, thinking that Feng Yi himself had invited Ying to go to the land of Beichuan to quell the rebellion, and it had been a while: "Oh... Isn't there bad news? ”
Jia Fu smiled, and then showed some joy: "Lord, Feng Yi led an army of 10,000 to the land of the nine counties of Beichuan, although he was blocked, but his army drove straight in, but in a few months, he took the nine counties of Beichuan, and..."
Seeing that Jia Fu was silent, Shangguan Yin Feng asked, "And what?" You talk to me and say hurry up, don't wait for me to squeeze toothpaste and ask you..."
"Squeeze toothpaste?" Jia Fu was a little foggy, but thinking that Huang Wei had reminded him before, if he heard what the lord said that we didn't understand, don't ask, otherwise he would be scolded, and he didn't dare to ask more, so he replied: "Feng Yi issued a 'killing order' in Beichuan..."
When Shangguan Yin Feng heard this, he knew a little, and said to himself: "I think that Ran Wei of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms issued a 'kill Hu order', which also saved us Han people..." ”
When Jia Fu heard this, he opened his mouth in surprise: "Doesn't the lord have eyeliner?" Seeing Shangguan Yin Feng shaking his head, Jia Fu was even more surprised: "Yes... That's right... Feng Yi's order was 'Anyone who is not my Han to fight the army will be killed'..."
Jia Fu originally thought that this was a very important matter, so he came to report to Shangguan Yin Feng, but Shangguan Yin Feng smiled and said: "Good Feng Yi, Jia Fu, you go to pass the order, this king named Feng Yi as the envoy of Beichuan Town, commanding the nine counties of Beichuan, and told him to add another sentence after the 'Killing Qiang Order', 'If you oppose it, you will be slaughtered'..."
Jia Fu was stunned for a moment, and then he clasped his fists and saluted: "No..."
From the Western Han Dynasty to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Qiang people in Sichuan and Qinghai were particularly prominent, which was a headache for the Central Plains court.
(Yuzhou County, Wen County)
"General, I might as well wait for a sneak attack at night in exchange for unexpected results..."
He Ying frowned, he has been unable to sleep and eat in the past few days, in addition to his wife and children being captured by Shangguan Yin Feng, He Jing's pressure on him is not small, He Jing was furious after learning that He Long was killed, and hurriedly dispatched troops and horses, and ordered the guard general Chai Shang to command 100,000 troops to Wen County to support He Ying, and ordered He Ying to recapture Xingyang before August 15: "No, Chai Shang's army is still in Mengzhou, and my Wen County is now only 30,000 horses, how to compete with Shangguan Yin Feng's nearly 100,000 troops, but, We can send elite troops to attack Shangguan Yin Feng's rear grain road, maybe there will be a chance..."
A staff general next to him pointed to the map and said: "General, Shangguan Yin Feng and the others are all camped ten miles away from Xingyang, and all their grain is stored in a village called Zhengyi Township in the east of Xingyang, with about 5,000 troops..."
He Ying was a little excited, grabbed the placket of the general's shirt and asked, "How do you know?" ”
"General, the news that my subordinates' scouts found out was just yesterday..."
"Okay..."He Ying paced back and forth a few steps: "Do you know who the guard is?" ”
"The flag is marked with the word 'Song'..."
"Song?" As everyone knows, this 'Song' is Song Zijiang, He Ying turned around and looked at the map carefully, and then said in a straight voice: "Sergeant of the herald, prepare immediately, I will personally lead the troops to Zhengyi Township tonight, if Shangguan Yin Feng's grain route is cut off, this battle will be won..."
"No..."
(Thirty miles east of Xingyang, Zhengyi Township, Song Zijiang Daying)
"Big brother, when are we going to pull?"
Song Zijiang looked at Song Zixian and shook his head: "How dare I live up to the great responsibility given to me by the main bus?" No matter what time we open, we must be in good spirits, otherwise, if there is a problem with the food, we will not have the face to see the lord..."
At the moment, He Ying led 10,000 horses and stars to set off from Wen County to attack the grain nest of Zhengyi Township, which was only a hundred miles away from them, and Song Zijiang, who had just fallen asleep, hurriedly called the sergeant and asked, "When?" ”
The little colonel who came in couldn't wait: "General, someone is sneaking up..."
As soon as he heard this, Song Zijiang secretly screamed badly, and hurriedly put on his clothes and armor: "Quick, pass on my order, don't mess up, meet the enemy immediately..."
"No..."
Anyone who was attacked by the night was rarely able to resist in a panic, not to mention that it was He Ying who attacked Song Zijiang, not to mention, Song Zijiang's passive organization of resistance was just a drop in the bucket, and he was suddenly attacked, and the sergeants of each battalion were scattered and fled, and they didn't have the heart to fight at all, and under Song Zixian's persuasion, they rushed towards Xingyang with the remnants of no more than 100 people...
(Xingyang, Shangguan Yin Feng Daying)
"Grass and mud horses..."Shangguan Yin Feng scolded, kneeling in front of him the two brothers Song Zijiang and Song Zixian: "He Ying, you are so damning..."
Shangguan Yin Feng's scolding made the generals under the tent dare not speak, because it was the first time they saw Shangguan Yin Feng so angry, and the scolding was also strange, they could not understand much, Song Zijiang saw this, and said with some decline: "Lord, the last general is derelict in his duties, please surrender the lord..."
"Please surrender the lord..."Song Zixian saw that the eldest brother was like this, and hurriedly followed...
In fact, now Shangguan Yin Feng doesn't want to deal with them at all, and those who become big things are not informal, if you deal with these generals now, there will be no one available when the time comes to employ people in the future, this is the greatest sorrow, there are so many in all dynasties, but if you don't deal with it, it will cause criticism, so you said: "Your crime of dereliction of duty really makes this king very angry, but after all, it is He Ying who attacked you, and you are not his opponents, which is understandable, but you have lost the grain nest, The food supply of my 100,000 army is a big trouble, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold Xingyang for a while, with the army commander Bo, you first write down the mistakes of the two of them, and then the merits and demerits will be offset in the future, if such mistakes occur again, they will not be forgiven..."
"No..."
"Thank you..." Song Zijiang was very grateful, he never thought that Shangguan Yin Feng would forgive the two brothers so easily, this move made Song Zijiang even more eager to repay Shangguan Yin Feng, and Shangguan Yin Feng didn't expect that his unintentional move would cultivate a loyal minister for himself...
That night, Shangguan Yin Feng ordered the whole army to withdraw from Xingyang City, but on the way out of the city, it was suddenly attacked by He Ying's army, and suffered heavy casualties. Yuan Huan's army on this side is also rushing towards Xingyang non-stop, what makes people a little hilarious is that this Xingyang city has been repeatedly fought for by both sides, and the reinforcements on both sides are also rushing to, the Xingyang battlefield is also the most critical battle, he is the starting point of the fall of He Jing's rule, and it is known as the 'Battle of Xingyang' in later generations...
