A few days later, Li Yin was playing Go by himself in the courtyard with nothing to do, and since he played a game with Su Wei that day, he liked to play chess, but he had no chess friends, so he had to play it alone.

"Can I play against you?" A warbler chirped like a sound, and Li Yin looked up to see that a Guanyin maid dressed in white appeared beside him at some point.

Li Yin said: "You can also play chess?" Of course, you can take a seat. ”

After Guanyin sat down slowly, she held a white child in her hand and said: "When I was a child, my father taught me to play chess, and I didn't play well. ”

Li Yin said: "I have just learned, and my chess skills are very bad, so you should be merciful." ”

Guanyin smiled lightly, looked forward to Shengyan, and then dropped the white son in his hand, Li Yin quickly responded with a black son, and the two of them played chess back and forth

After playing for more than half an hour, Li Yin was undecided for a while, and finally sighed: "I lost, I didn't expect you to be so good at chess." ”

Guanyin smiled and picked up Baizi from the chessboard, and Li Yin then played a few more games with her, but basically Guanyin won and Li Yin lost, although she didn't win much, but Li Yin's chess skills have also improved significantly.

In February, the ice and snow in Yanmen County began to melt, and Li Yin personally presided over the spring ploughing matters.

The resettlement of displaced people in Yanmen County, Hengshan County, and other places has now achieved initial results, and last year the world was in turmoil, but Li Yin's territory had a bumper harvest in the autumn, and the people had stored grain, and they handed over a lot of grain, and Li Yin no longer had to pay financial and material resources in this regard.

The plan of the year lies in the spring, and whether the people under Li Yin's jurisdiction can have a good harvest this year is the most critical at this time, so Li Yin has been very busy since entering February.

Seeing this, the eldest grandson Wuji took the initiative to ask for help with Li Yin, Li Yin naturally would not refuse, and asked him to support the spring ploughing in Lao County and Anrong.

The Gao family, who was originally very dissatisfied with Li Yin, couldn't help but nod after seeing the residents of Yanmen County living and working in peace and contentment......

In March, Shangsi Festival, Yang Guang and his ministers feasted on the water in Xiyuan. Yang Guang ordered the scholar Du Bao to write the "Water Decoration Illustrated Scripture", which collected seventy-two ancient stories about water; Let the story of the Asasan doctor Huang Gunyi be made of wood, interspersed with the boats of the prostitutes, the wine boats, the wooden characters are moving, lifelike, and the bells and chimes can all make musical tunes.

Yang Guang and the officials were fascinated, as if they didn't know that the world was in chaos.

On the same day, Zhang Jin claimed to have captured Ping'en County and killed more than 10,000 men and women in one morning. Zhang Jin said that he then captured Wu'an, Julu, and Qinghe counties.

Zhang Jin said that he was more brutal than other thieves, and there were no traces of people wherever he led his troops, so when he attacked other counties, the people fled one after another, and the five counties of Hengshan became one of the first choices for many people to flee.

Zhang Jinshuo, Hao Xiaode, Gao Shida, Yang Gongqing, Wang Xuba, Wei Dao'er and others plundered Hebei and captured the counties, and the generals of the Sui Dynasty were defeated one after another. Yang Shanhui fought with thieves more than 700 times before and after, and he was never defeated.

Zhang Jin said that after the news of the capture of many places in Hebei reached the imperial court, Yang Guang sent Yang Yichen, the imperial servant, to crusade against Zhang Jincheng and quell the rebellion in Hebei, and ordered Yang Shanhui, Wang Bian and others to assist, and sent Guo Xuan, the commander of Zhuo County, to attack Gao Shida in the south.

Zhang Jin said that he camped in the northeast of Ping'en County, and Yang Yichen led his troops to the west of Linqing County, and camped according to the Yongji Canal, which was forty miles away from Zhang Jin's camp, with deep ditches and high bases, but did not fight with Zhang Jincheng.

Yang Shanhui offered advice to Yang Yichen: "Zhang Jin is called a man who is irritable, as long as we confront him for more than a month, he will not be able to bear it, so as to expose his flaws, and then let him despise our army, and he will be able to succeed in a battle." ”

Yang Yichen knew that Yang Shanhui had fought with Zhang Jincheng many times, and he knew Zhang Jincheng very well about what he was saying, so he decided that the strategy he offered was a good policy, so he adopted it.

Hu Ben Zhonglang General Wang Bian also said to Yang Yichen: "The five counties in the north of Hengshan and Jingcheng Pass are all under the actual control of General Yingyanglang of Yanmen, although he controls these places only to settle the displaced people, his heart is still towards the imperial court, why don't you let him lead his troops south, and fight with our army against Zhang Jincheng before and after?" ”

After Yang Yichen thought about it for a while, he also agreed to Wang Wei's plan, Li Yin didn't come, if he could come, it would be the best, if he didn't come, he would have an excuse to recapture the rich five counties of Hengshan.

So after that, although Zhang Jincheng led his troops to the west of Yang Yichen's camp every day to fight, Yang Yichen also wore armor and led the soldiers, and agreed to fight with Zhang Jincheng, but in the end he always did not fight. Every day until it was getting late, Zhang Jin said that he had to lead the army back to the camp and come back early the next morning.

After a month like this, Yang Yichen didn't even play once.

Zhang Jin said that he was really a little impatient, and every time Yang Yichen appeared, he showed a panicked look, so Zhang Jin said that Yang Yichen was timid at this time and did not dare to confront him.

On this day, Zhang Jinshu approached his camp several times and insulted Yang Yichen, who said to Zhang Jin: "If you come tomorrow morning, I will definitely fight you." ”

Zhang Jin said that because of this, he underestimated the enemy and did not have the slightest sense of vigilance.

After Yang Yichen returned to the camp, he began to select warriors and cavalry, and Yang Shanhui came to Yang Yichen with a heroic young man at this time, "My lord, this is Su Lie Su Dingfang, fierce and powerful, extremely courageous, and can be the vanguard officer of breaking the enemy." ”

Yang Yichen glanced at Su Dingfang for a few moments, then nodded in agreement.

Su Dingfang has just turned 20 years old this year, he is a native of Wuyi in Xindu County, Xindu County is in the north of Qinghe County, and in Qinghe County, there are hundreds of miles of Gaojibo, which has always been a gathering place for Hebei rebels, and all Xindu County is also quite affected by the rebellion.

Su Dingfang's father, Su Yong, is the largest landlord in Wuyi County, naturally did not want to watch the money and grain taken away by the rebels, so he organized thousands of people to beg for thieves for the county, although Su Dingfang was only fifteen years old at the time, but also began to fight with his father, over the years there have been many achievements, famous Hebei,

Before dawn on this day, Yang Yichen selected 2,000 elite cavalry, led by Su Dingfang, to cross the river from Guantao at night, and after Zhang Jincheng led his troops to leave the camp in the early morning, he entered Zhang's camp to attack his family and baggage.

Like Zhang Jin, the families of the soldiers also went with the army, and they could not need money and food, but the family members could not ignore it, so Zhang Jin said that when he heard the news of the sneak attack on the camp, he immediately led the troops back.

Yang Yichen attacked from behind, and Zhang Jin said that he was defeated in the chaos, and his troops were scattered.
