Chapter 433: Zhan Youzhou Six
Wu State, Jinling City, Wei Mansion.
In the pension case, the Jiangdong family was hit like never before, and the Wei family was hit the hardest, almost cutting off the backbone by Sun Quan.
This one was originally the best family among the Jiangdong family of the academy, but now it has plummeted.
In the past, it was like a city, but now it is cold, this stark contrast makes countless powerful families in Jinling City ready to move, and they all have a mood of wanting to replace them.
The Four Great Families are not only a name, but also represent their status.
Of course, the Wei family is still the Wei family, deep-rooted, as long as Wei Teng, the old fox, does not die, the Wei family will not fall, and they are still one of the leading bosses in the Jiangdong family.
Since the pension case, Wei Teng resigned from the position of one of Wu Guojiuqing's Dasi Nong, and he was idle at home and was in a state of semi-retirement.
He stays at home every day, very low-key, and low-key as if there is no such person in Jinling.
"Brother Wei!"
On this day, Yu Xuan, the head of the Yu family, one of the four great families, came in a hurry, entered the Wei Mansion, and went to meet Wei Teng.
The Wei family and the Yu family are both one of the four great families in Jiangdong, one is based in Yuzhang, and the other occupies Huiji.
But since the public opinion war, the two families have reached a temporary alliance in the face of Sun Quan, and the next pension will also be the most damaged.
Freemasonry has made their relationship closer.
Although Wei Teng handed over his position, he used a lot of strength to maintain the position of Shaofuqing, one of the nine Qings of Yu Xuan.
Yu Fu is still one of the nine secretaries of Wu Guo.
But now there is no Wei Teng as support, and the Lu family and the Gu family, who are also family arrays, are obviously estranged from him because of the pension case. made him obviously a little weak in the court, and he has also been low-key recently.
"Brother Zhongxiang, please take a seat!"
Wei Teng was dressed in an ordinary robe and sat quietly on top of an elegant gazebo, his face was very cold and indifferent, but the pale hair on his temples was enough to explain his desolation for a while.
Wei Teng is called the old fox though. But he is not very old, less than fifty years old, and now he is nearly sixty years old, so you can imagine the blow to him from this incident.
The loss of a son in old age is a great sorrow in life, and a loss is a lot, which makes him feel a little unbearable, that is, these geniuses breathe a sigh of relief and barely cheer up.
"Brother Wei. Pingzhou sent back the news that the third prince was defeated in Youzhou and is now going to be escorted back! In the face of Wei Teng, Yu turned over and would have been more vigilant in the past, but now he was less vigilant, and went straight to the point and asked: "He sent troops privately, and tens of thousands of soldiers were killed in battle." We will be punished by the king, and what should we do then? β
At the beginning, Wei Teng was after the main hall of the dynasty. After seeing Sun Yi's ambitions, the two discussed together, pushed Sun Yi out directly, and confronted Sun Ce and Sun Quan.
After all, Sun Ce and Sun Quan made them a little uncontrollable.
Sun Yi was able to gain a foothold in Pingzhou so easily in less than a few months, and he could still send troops privately. Among them, if you want to have great influence, the family can be described as a great effort.
It's a pity that the mud can't support the wall.
After the defeat of Youzhou, Sun Yi had already left a bad impression behind the people of Wu State, and if he wanted to compete with Sun Ce and Sun Quan's brothers in the future, it was no longer possible.
Betting so much on the experience. Now that they have got a waste, their hard work has basically been wasted, and for Sun Yi, Yu Fu naturally doesn't want to deal with it.
"Bao!"
Hearing this, Wei Teng raised his head slightly, his cloudy and calm eyes became sharp, and he crossed a faint and cold glow, and said loudly: "No matter what, we must keep him, even if it is a waste, it can be useful, his identity is the biggest weapon!" β
Sun Zhongmou, this person has become the person of the Wei family who wants but loses at any cost.
These days, Wei Teng has thought about it behind closed doors, thought a lot, and constantly reflected on why he lost to Sun Quan repeatedly, in addition to Sun Quan's shrewdness, there is another reason for this.
Sun Quan is the son of the great king Sun Jian, and they are outsiders.
If you want to kill Sun Quan, even if you catch Sun Quan's handle, at most you will only be punished by Sun Jian, and Sun Jian will not kill him, even if they reluctantly kill him in the end, it will anger Sun Jian, and the Wei family will probably have to be buried with the whole family.
Now the only way is to borrow the hands of the Sun family but kill the people of the Sun family, only in this way can the Wei family take revenge and stay out of the matter.
Although Sun Ce and Sun Quan are already incompatible, this person is too domineering and shrewd, and he knows the righteousness, and he will consider the interests of Wu State in everything he does, and it is not something they can use at all.
The only one who can be used now is Sun Yi.
Sun Yi, a young man, brave and unscrupulous, and ambitious, is typical of being ambitious and talented, has soft ears, and is easy to use.
"The third prince and Jiang Hou have a good relationship, this time Jiang Hou Mansion should take action to protect him!"
When Yu Pan heard this, he groaned for a while, thought about it, his eyes flashed with a gleam, and he said in a low voice: "You don't need us!" β
"What if at this time, Donghou Mansion suddenly falls into the ground?" Wei Teng had a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, and said gloomily: "This is not only our chance, but also the best opportunity to provoke them, to plant a seed in Sun Yi's heart." β
"It's not difficult!"
Yu flipped through the words, his eyes flashed brightly, it was a little troublesome to fool Sun Quan and Sun Ce, and it was easy to fool Sun Yi.
If Sun Yi thinks that Sun Quan wants to kill him, it will make him resentful of Sun Quan, and it will be much easier to use it in the future.
"Remember, don't be too clear, leave room for his own imagination!"
Wei Teng said coldly: "Sun Wentai's two sons are both civil and military, but they have a waste, this is retribution, this person has a head and no brain, as long as he is slightly guided, he will inevitably speculate, hehehe, a certain can't wait to see the scene of their brothers turning against each other!" β
"Understand!"
Yu Pan nodded, then his eyes swept around. Seeing that there was no one, he stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Brother Wei, the ghost pawn has come to the door." β
"What?"
When Wei Teng heard this, he turned his head slightly. His eyes suddenly widened, and Yu turned over when he looked at it, and said: "You are crazy, that is the Wei State, treason is a capital crime, and the only thing you can do now is to report it to Jinyiwei immediately and get rid of them." β
"Brother Wei, the Sun family killed so many of us. Are we still going to be faithful to him? There was a touch of resentment on Yu's face, the pension case, so many people died in the Yu family, it was all the sins of the Sun family.
He not only hated Sun Quan, but also hated Sun Jian, and even hated Wu Guo, so the messenger of the ghost pawn quietly came to the door, and he didn't say a word. I met directly.
"Yu Zhongxiang, you are sick!"
Wei Teng's eyes flashed with a calm essence. said coldly: "Do you know how many brocade guards around us are staring at this juncture, corruption is just a small crime, and now it has greatly damaged our vitality, if it involves rebellion." Without evidence, our two major families, thousands of mouths will be directly erased. β
"This ......"
When Yu heard this, his face turned pale all of a sudden, and cold sweat broke out all over his body.
He was hell-bent on revenge. Ignoring the ubiquitous brocade guards.
Wu Guojin Yiwei is notorious, to be honest, there are not many people who will like this gloomy department, even the king Sun Jian has a disgust for it.
But this can't deny its ability, and they are all very clear about the energy that Jinyiwei contains in Wu State.
There will be more or less shadows of Jinyiwei in his own family, and if the news of the ghost pawn spy who came into contact with spreads, I am afraid that he will definitely die.
"You go to Jinyiwei immediately now, sue sΓΉ Jinyiwei, and then cooperate with Jinyiwei to lure people out, and then serve a pot!" Wei Teng's face had a hint of indescribable killing, and said: "Remember, if you want revenge, you have to endure it, and you must Sun Jian believe in us again, so we can have a chance!" β
Using the Wei State is an opportunity for them, but the risk is too great.
"Yes, I'll do it right away!"
Yu nodded, stood up, and hurriedly walked out.
"Father!"
After Yu flipped over, in half a ring, Wei Chen's voice came out, and he stood beside Wei Teng very respectfully, bowing and saluting.
"Has Wei Yue's matter been dealt with?" Wei Teng asked.
"Report to my father, Brother Yue has sent the news, he has received the will, the death penalty can be avoided, the living crime is inescapable, and he has been exiled to Yizhou."
The young generation of the Wei family has lost too much, and many children with humble status and outstanding talents have hoes, and Wei Chen, the concubine, has now become Wei Teng's biggest confidant.
"Good!"
When Wei Teng heard this, a pair of eyes full of conspiracy narrowed, and said: "As long as he doesn't die, when this limelight passes, he will still have a chance to come back, although the matter has failed, but Sun Yi believes in him so much now, it is a good thing." β
"Father, the leader of the Wei ghost pawn in Jinling wants to see you!" Wei Chen said suddenly.
"Nope!"
Hearing this, Wei Teng said coldly.
"But what they said is that if you want to cooperate, you have to pay some sincerity!" Wei Chen looked at his father and said in a low voice, "I have to see you in person before we can continue talking!" β
"Humph!"
Wei Teng's face was shy, and he said coldly: "Pass on a word to them, this is Wu Guo, a certain family is in charge, if you don't want to cooperate, at most you will break up!" β
He persuaded Yu to turn because Yu turned things closely enough, and the ghost pawn represented the Wei State, and if he wanted to deal with the Sun family, he had to borrow the power of the Wei State.
"No!"
When Wei Chen heard this, he trembled, what he felt from his father in the past was a majesty, but now there was only a cold one like ice.
Wei Teng's body stood up, his eyes looked at the sky in the distance, the corners of his mouth outlined a smile as cold as ice, and muttered: "Sun Zhongmou, if you owe the Wei family, you will definitely pay it back a hundred times." β
This sound, which seemed to come from hell, constantly echoed above the elegant gazebo, and the temperature in the air involuntarily dropped, and then Wei Chen felt a little chilling.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
The third year of the Warring States period, May, the end.
Jicheng, ambush on all sides.
The Jin State swept Guangyang, and the Wu State stabilized Yuyang, the soldiers and horses of the two countries. At the same time, the official soldiers came to the city and started the offensive and defensive battle of Jicheng.
Before the storm, it was calm.
The soldiers of the Jin State have occupied the southern and western cities of Jicheng, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses are arrayed ten miles outside the city. Connect the two city gates, and camp outside the city wall where the two gates are connected.
At this time, the soldiers and horses of Wu had already taken the east and north gates.
The two countries combined with hundreds of thousands of troops, the front and back, left, left and right, Jicheng was surrounded by water, and not even a goshawk wanted to enter or exit.
At this time, no one launched an attack, and there were still elite soldiers and horses of the Yan Kingdom in Jicheng. It's not easy to fight, so one side may not have the ability to swallow, and even if it has the ability to fight, it will be greatly damaged.
If you do your best, attack with all your might, and finally let the other party pick up a bargain, it will be sad.
Sandpiper and clam fight, fisherman profits. None of them want it to happen to them.
As a result, this situation has formed a strange confrontation.
Of course, this is how it goes. It's not a way, Yan must be destroyed, this is a consensus reached by both sides, in order to be able to attack the city happily, the two sides began to start a negotiation in a place outside the city.
The Jin State was represented by Tian Feng and the Wu State was represented by Chen Gong. The two men opened a day and a night of negotiations on a hillside where they met in the southeast.
The two sides reached a consensus and signed an alliance under the city.
The one who breaks the city first will get the city of thistle.
β¦β¦
Jicheng, above the tall city. Gongsun Chan stood burly again, a little silent, and a pair of eyes with a god looking at the north.
"Northern Xinjiang!"
Looking at the majestic country, Gongsun Zhan felt a touch of sadness in his heart.
Today's Yan Kingdom has reached the last moment.
If he can keep Jicheng, he still has a glimmer of hope, if he can't keep Jicheng, the great rivers and mountains in the north will have nothing to do with him from now on.
"Guan Jing, do you think that Lone can hold Jicheng?"
After half a ring, Gongsun Zhan's voice suddenly became a little low, this was the first time he had no confidence in himself.
In the face of the soldiers and horses of the two powerful countries, no matter how conceited and proud he is, he knows that he may not be able to stop it.
"King!"
Guan Jing's gaze fell on Gongsun Zhan's straight back, and said lightly: "I believe that as long as the king is here, our Yan Kingdom will be able to survive this hurdle, because the king is Gongsun Zhan!" β
Today's Jicheng has enough food, sufficient weapons, and good reserves, as long as Gongsun Chan cheers up, it is not that there is no hope of surviving this hurdle.
If such a heavy force is a soldier of a country and united, Yan Guo is really hopeless, but now after all, it is the two countries besieging at the same time, and there is more or less discord between the two countries, and both sides are afraid that their own strength consumption is too huge, and the other party is cheaper in the end.
As long as it drags on, there is a way to live.
"Hahaha!"
When Gongsun Chan heard this, he trembled, turned his head, and looked at Guan Jing with a firm face, this brother who had been with him for nearly twenty years, trusted him as always, and he couldn't help laughing.
His tall and burly body exuded a touch of pride, and said loudly: "That's right, Lone is Gongsun Zhan, how can Gongsun Zhan be defeated, this battle, when fighting!" β
He is Gongsun Zhan, the overlord of Northern Xinjiang Gongsun Zhan, from the Northern Xinjiang, he has gone through hardships, ups and downs for decades, conquering foreign races, pacifying the Yellow Turban, the alliance of princes, and overthrowing Dong Zhuo...... There have been countless big battles and small battles, but the pride in my heart has never changed.
"Immediately give the order!"
Gongsun Zhan leaned down, looked at the army of Wu Guo who was rigorously arrayed outside the city, and said coldly: "Starting from a young age, the whole city will be under martial law, and then 50,000 young men will be requisitioned from the city to form a reserve!" β
Tian Kai tore only 50,000 remnants from Liangxiang City, the last line of defense Guangyang was broken, and his only remaining soldiers and horses were only 30,000, returning to Jicheng.
These remnants, plus the elite soldiers he withdrew from Yuyang, as well as the Imperial Forest Army in Jicheng, can form a force of 100,000 soldiers and horses, but this is not enough.
"No!"
"Do everything you have, fight with you, Wu Kingdom, Jin Kingdom, you all come!"
Gongsun Zhan's eyes exuded a strong fighting spirit, and he was arrogant, and said coldly: "Jicheng is the place where you are buried!" (To be continued......)
