Chapter 604: Yang Liang was intimidated

PS: Thank you for the monthly ticket support of friends such as pigs in the hometown of book friends, and thank you for the encouragement of book friends who also want to write.

Wei Zheng's expression became gloomy, and he said: "Qiu He is not the most fatal, the most fatal thing is that Qu Tutong should not be let go in the first place. If I had been on the scene at the time, I would have directly said that the King of Han would have taken Qu Tutong, and then sent troops to attack Tongguan, and I would not have wasted time at this ferry port in Puzhou. ”

"Qu Tutong is a veteran of the battlefield, he will know that the King of Han will be against him as soon as he looks at the frame of Jinyang City, and when he rushes back all the way, he will already explain the precautions to the guards of Tongguan, in fact, at the moment when Qu Tutong runs out of Jinyang, your tactics will not exist suddenly."

"Moreover, and the Guanzhong Inner Governor like Changsun Sheng, which I originally told you, should also be gone, it turns out that I plan to release Yang Yong when Yang Guang seizes the throne, so that many people in Guanzhong will buy his account and will support King Han."

"It's a pity that Yang Guang started too quickly and killed Yang Yong directly, so that Changsun Sheng could only fall to Yang Guang, without the name of righteousness, he couldn't convict Yang Guang of killing his father, only take Yang Su as an article, and not many people would follow."

"Although the number of soldiers near Daxing in Guanzhong is not large, they are all elite soldiers from all over the country, plus the 10,000 Xiaoguo, these 50,000 or 60,000 horses alone are enough to resist the 200,000 army of the King of Han.

Pei Wenan said dissatisfiedly: "You were the one who said that you were beaten, and now you are the one who said that you won't fight, what are you?" ”

Wei Zheng smiled bitterly: "At this time and that time, my original plan was to rob Yang Yong." Win over Changsun Sheng. At least keep him neutral. In this way, as long as the Tongguan is broken, the 20,000 or 30,000 swordsmen at the head of the Han King plus the more than 20,000 heroes from all over the country I contacted in the Guanzhong can also fight with those Xiaoguo. ”

"If this plan is a qiē shun lì, there is a fifty percent certainty that it will be able to capture Daxing. It's a pity that now Yang Yong's banner is gone, and Changsun Sheng has completely become Yang Guang's person, so there is no need to say anything. ”

Pei Wenan was about to open his mouth to refute, only to hear a strong man in black shouting as he ran: "General, general." The military order of the King of Han will let you burn the Pujin Bridge immediately! ”

Pei Wenan was dumbfounded, the sword in his hand fell to the ground with a "snap", he didn't care about picking up the sword, and ran down the city tower as if he wanted to fly to Yang Liang's side immediately.

Wei Zheng let out a long sigh, picked up the wine bag he was carrying, opened the stopper, and began to pour blood-red wine into his mouth. Covering his face, he walked up to Wei Zheng and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Wei." Now what? ”

Wei Zheng's eyes flashed with coldness: "Yang Liang, this pig, this time I am afraid that it will be defeated, we will quickly act according to the original plan, burn the shops in the city and buy and sell the deed, everyone retreats to Luoyang overnight, and then returns to Guanzhong through Wuguan, without leaving a trace." ”

Shan Xiongxin nodded: "Also, what about Dou Jiande and Xu Gai's people, do you let them go back on their own, or go to Henan with us first?" ”

Wei Zheng smiled slightly: "The lord has already ordered, let them take advantage of the chaos to go back to their respective hometowns first, and act when they see the opportunity, if this battle is protracted, they will also raise troops to respond." ”

A day later, in a gorgeous military tent more than 100 miles northeast of Puzhou City, Yang Liangzheng was lying on a chair with a helpless face, watching his subordinates Wang Gong and Pei Wenan fight each other.

Since Yang Liang ordered Pei Wen'an to withdraw, he immediately sent the general Su Dangui to lead 20,000 foot soldiers and forcibly march to Puzhou to change the defense.

Pei Wen'an was not willing to withdraw like this, before Su Dangui went to Puzhou to change the defense, he also led more than 1,000 subordinates to tentatively attack Tongguan, and found that although the Sui army guarding the city was only a few hundred people, it had already been prepared, Pei Wenan then withdrew to Hedong hatefully, and Su Dangui burned the Pujin Bridge clean.

Pei Wen'an couldn't swallow this breath in his heart, and after instructing the more than 1,000 subordinates to keep up with the army of the king of Han as soon as possible, he ran all the way alone and ran to the camp of the king of Han in half a day.

Pei Wen'an suddenly rushed to the front of the Han King's tent, and heard the king of the tent say: "At present, the king has two ways to choose, if you want to attack Guanzhong, then you have to use your subordinate generals from Guanzhong, these people's wives and children are all in Guannei, just to save their families will be desperate." ”

"If the king doesn't want to gamble, then go back to the land of Northern Qi, appoint people from Kanto, and then send Zai Xia and General Xiao Lao to lead a partial division to run Jiangnan, or you can form a long-term tug of war with Yang Guang, compete for the world, and the outcome is unknown."

Pei Wen'an was furious when he heard this, and he had already thrown Wei Zheng's words of persuasion out of the clouds, and no longer cared about the etiquette of the ministers and ministers with Yang Liang, and rushed in as soon as he lifted the tent, pointing at Wang Gong and scolding: "Wang Gong, it was your evil words that confuse the public, so you lost the fighter, the king, you killed this guy!" ”

Wang Fei was talking about Xingtou, but he didn't expect a guy to come up and scold himself, and after a little flurging, he turned to see that the person who came was Pei Wen'an, so he laughed: "General Pei has worked hard, come and come, drink some water first, and dissipate your anger." ”

Pei Wen'an was unforgiving, and continued to yell at Wang Hao: "Wang Fei, this plan to raid Guanzhong was originally drawn up by the two of us together, and you didn't object at that time, you never mentioned anything about running Jiangnan in front of me, why did you keep mentioning this matter to the king as soon as I left?" Not only that, but you also want to let the king let you go to Jiangnan and ruin our big event of seizing Guanzhong? What the hell are you trying to do?! ”

No matter how good Wang Fei's temper was, he couldn't help it, and shouted at Pei Wen'an: "Pei Wen'an, I respect you for your meritorious service in this raid, don't worry about you, you're still endless?" If you hadn't let Qiu He go first, why would you have let the defenders of Tongguan be on guard? ”

Pei Wenan yelled at him on the spot, and he was speechless all of a sudden.

Wang Yan glanced at Yang Liang and continued: "Pei Wen'an, after you left, King Han and the generals did not delay for a moment. In less than a day, the army was set off. Everyone is waiting for your good news. You should know that the capture of Puzhou is just a bridge to enter the pass, and if you really want to enter the pass, you still have to go through Tongguan. ”

"But you, Pei Wen'an, as the commander-in-chief at the front, did not judge the situation, neither did you seize Tongguan, but also let Qiu He run. A letter was sent to the defenders of Tongguan. Now that the fighter plane has been lost, you don't go to take a good look at yourself, but here you are scolding others to cover up your mistakes, and you are not ashamed?! ”

Pei Wen'an's face was blue and white for a while, he originally regretted his choice after saying this to Wei Zheng, but now he pointed his nose at Wang Zheng like this, which made him unacceptable, so he responded hatefully: "Binggui is fast, after using this plan, you have to follow up with all your might." If a soldier has the heart of death, he will not have the idea of stealing life. In this way, it is possible to rely on the tens of thousands of troops on hand to capture Guanzhong. ”

"It's good now, I'm afraid of wolves and tigers, and when I see that Tongguan is on guard, I want to burn the bridge and withdraw the army, and I want to go to your Jiangnan before I withdraw the army, not to mention what you went to Jiangnan for, even if you get to Jiangnan, you have the ability to make tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops at once?"

"Just now you persuaded the king to retreat to the hometown of Northern Qi, can we defend Northern Qi under this situation? Don't forget that our banner is to crusade against the traitor Yang Su, only by attacking and attacking again, and entering the Guanzhong can be regarded as in line with this slogan, if you go to Jiangnan, is it still called a crusade against Yang Su? ”

Wang Jun didn't expect Pei Wen'an to think of this layer in this situation, he was slightly stunned, and stood in place without saying anything.

Pei Wen'an saw that he had taken the initiative again, and became even more proud, he also knew that the boat bridge had been destroyed, and it was impossible to enter the customs again, but he just couldn't swallow this breath, and didn't want Wang Fei's plan to go to Jiangnan to succeed, so he said to Yang Liang: "Wang, what are your plans now?" ”

Yang Liang saw that his two big think tanks were pinched up first, and he was at a loss for a while, and he didn't know how to speak if he wanted to persuade the two of them, so he finally waited for this opportunity to interject, and suddenly came to the spirit, and the person also sat up straight, and said: "I feel that according to what Wang said when he joined the army, on the one hand, he went out of Qingzhou, Jizhou, and played a stable rear, and on the other hand, he sent a partial division into Jiangnan, which should be the best choice now." ”

Pei Wenan immediately said loudly: "No! ”

Yang Liang was surprised: "Why not? Now that the fighter plane that entered Guanzhong has been lost, is there any other choice but to do so? ”

Pei Wen'an had already thought of his rhetoric along the way, and said confidently at this time: "All generals, the battle should be considered defeat before victory, and now it is difficult to enter Guanzhong again, but the crusade army of the imperial court will not come for a while, so the key now is to divide the troops out of the land of Yanzhao and firmly grasp Youzhou and Jizhou in their hands, and the second is to open up Shuozhou or Daizhou and connect with the Turks in the north." ”

Wang Fei immediately spoke: "No, now the Turks can't count on it, you originally told us that Changsun Sheng would be on our side, what friends do you have who can kidnap Yang Yonglai, but now?" Where are the others? To be honest, if I hadn't believed you, I wouldn't have agreed to your rash start a war. ”

Pei Wenan sneered: "It's man-made, my friend has done his best, even this surprise attack on Puzhou was also succeeded by relying on the ordnance stored in his warehouse and the information provided to us by his people, otherwise with only a few hundred of us, how could we take Puzhou, an important town with thousands of defenders, in one fell swoop." ”

Wang Jun shook his head: "It's not too difficult to take a small Puzhou, what the king wants to seize now is the whole world, and that friend of yours broke his promise and didn't bring Yang Yong over as he said, this is a breach of contract, which means that this person is unreliable, can you continue to count on him to help?" ”

"Besides, you don't know this person's background, you only know that he is a businessman, you must know that businessmen are the most mercenary, and do not trade at a loss, I think this person has to find a way to cut off contact with you now."

This suddenly touched Pei Wen'an's sore spot, in the city of Puzhou, Wei Zheng finally said that this is the only thing he can help himself, and they will temporarily cut off contact for a period of time in the future, if it is smooth, Wei Zheng will take the initiative to find Pei Wen'an.

Pei Wen'an was furious when he began to hear this, and asked loudly if Wei Zheng wanted to get out, and Wei Zheng defended that his strength as a businessman had been exhausted, and the only thing left was the matter of the soldiers, and if he protected himself at this time, he might be able to find a way out for Pei Wen'an in the future.

So Pei Wenan had to break up with Wei Zheng temporarily, and along the way there was a sense of frustration that was abandoned by Wei Zheng and his lord Wang Shichong.

At this time, Pei Wen'an uncovered the scar in Wang Yan's heart at once, and he couldn't care about saving face anymore. He scolded: "My friend just went back to Guanzhong to continue to help us operate." How can it be so unbearable as you say?! If he really wants to draw a line with us. Will it help us seize Puzhou? ”

"It's you, Wang Gong, who fooled the king all day long to let you go to Jiangnan, didn't you just want to take the opportunity to stand on your own? Do you think you'll know that little ninety-nine? ”

Wang Fei's face was flushed with anger, and he no longer left half a trace of emotion: "Yes, I went to Jiangnan to pull a team, so what's the matter?" How many teams are still the troops of the King of Han, it is useless for you to provoke them. ”

"It's you Pei Wen'an, your fellow clansman Pei Renji is the king's personal guard general. But he was not loyal to the king, and persuaded the king not to make trouble with the emperor's birthday, and now he is still locked up. I think you should explain what your relationship is with this thief! ”

Yang Liang slapped the cases in front of him and yelled: "Enough! Do you still have this king in your eyes?! ”

Wang Yan and Pei Wen'an, who were fighting for red ears and angry eyes, almost at any time as if they were going to fight, gave this roar, as if they had poured cold water on their heads, and they calmed down somewhat, and after glancing at each other, they both knelt down.

Yang Liang tapped the case heavily with his knuckles. He said, "Now is the time for you to give Gu an idea, but you are good." Instead of cooperating sincerely, they tear each other down and expose the ugly, do you have to wait until Yang Guang's counterinsurgency army arrives, and we are all escorted to the execution ground? ”

Pei Wen'an also felt a little remorse in his heart at this time, and said: "Today's events, Wen'an is to blame for being impulsive and reckless, and he also asks the king to forgive his sins." ”

Wang Jun was not willing to lag behind, and arched his hand and said: "I am also responsible for today's incident, I didn't control the situation, I fought too much with Wen An, and I asked the king to punish him!" ”

Yang Liang waved his hand: "Okay, okay, people always have anger, Lone also knows that the plan of the surprise attack in the pass is not successful, everyone is not in a good mood, you are all Lone's important ministers, and it depends on General Xiao to charge into battle, but if you win a thousand miles, Lone can only rely on the two of you, at this time, we must be united, and we must first come up with a feasible plan." ”

When Wang Yan heard this, his heart sank, just now, Yang Liang still completely agreed with his plan to let him go to Jiangnan, but now he said that he wanted to get a feasible plan, obviously he had been moved by Pei Wen'an's words, and he was wary of himself, but I am afraid that from now on, it is unlikely that he will listen to any of his own words.

Pei Wen'an obviously saw this, a hint of smugness flashed on his face, and he arched his hand at Yang Liang: "The plan to go south to Jiangnan is not feasible, we don't even control Yuzhou (now Henan), how can we go deep into Jiangnan and Jingzhou alone?" I'm afraid that before I get there, this partial division will be wiped out. ”

"Since the king's uprising, among the four big states that have really responded to us now, there are only 19 of the 52 states, and most of the others are just waiting, and people like Yang Yichen in Shuozhou and Li Jing in Daizhou are determined not to cause trouble with us."

"Therefore, according to Wen'an, our current priority is to open up the connection with the Turks, and by the way, eliminate the assassination history of states and counties such as Daizhou, Shuozhou, and Jingcheng who openly disobey us, if this matter is successful, it can also deter those states and counties that are indecisive to join our camp, such as Dou Kang, who is sitting in Youzhou, may be forced to take a stand."

Wang Cheng secretly complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to object, his eyes flickered, Yang Liang originally listened to Pei Wen'an's plan, and nodded again and again, and when he saw Wang Yan's expression, he said strangely: "Wang joins the army, what's wrong with Wen'an's plan?" ”

Wang Cheng thought about it carefully and said: "Jingcheng is the main way out of the state and into Youzhou, it must be captured, and the king can send the general Liu Jian to lead the troops to attack." ”

"The land of Henan has a large population, Liyang and Luokou are the granaries of the world, and the grain and grass of the entire army are worry-free, and a large number of displaced people can also be quickly recruited to join the army, and the passage to the south of the Yangtze River can be opened.

"As for the gateway to the north, Yang Yichen of Shuozhou has 20,000 horse infantry troops, and the combat effectiveness is very strong, and it is difficult to eliminate for a while, you can first send a general to lead the elite soldiers to attack Li Jing, who is slightly weaker, as long as you occupy Daizhou, you can go out of Yanmen to the north to join the Turks, and if Xu Qimin Khan takes heavy benefits, maybe the Turks will help us."

Yang Liang hurriedly asked: "Wang joins the army, do you mean to let General Xiao go to fight Li Jing in Daizhou?" ”

Wang Yan glanced at Pei Wen'an, and saw that he was staring at him tightly, so his heart moved, and he swallowed back the three words of Xiao Maha that came to his mouth.

Wang Hao snorted and said: "This candidate should be the king's most effective general, although there are many other troops, but the combat power is average, the troops fighting Daizhou must be the most elite troops under the king, the generals must be loyal and brave, if General Xiao is twenty years younger, he should be the best candidate, but unfortunately it is a bit of a spring and autumn now." ”

A trace of disappointment flashed on Yang Liang's face, and he said, "Who is better to send that faction?" ”

Wang Fei took a breath and looked at Pei Wen'an, the two of them tacitly said in unison: "Lanzhou Thorn History, Qiao Zhongkui!" (To be continued......)
