Chapter 135: The Turmoil of the He Clan (17)
He Tengxiao's persuasion finally came to fruition.
With the experience of the past, Peng Chaodong decided not to interfere in the family affairs of the He family for the time being. The He family's own affairs are still solved by the He family themselves.
Although Peng Chaodong made the decision not to interfere in the family affairs of the He clan for the time being, Peng Chaodong still had no intention of withdrawing the army. Tens of thousands of Qin troops were stationed near Pingshan Fort to watch the development of the situation in the three states of the He clan.
He Fangxiong, He Fangxiong, I have done everything I can for you, and the next thing is up to you. He Tengxiao said in his heart.
At this time, He Fangxiong's Fuzhou Army and He Shibao's Jinzhou Army faced each other across a shallow sand river.
In Fuzhou City, He Fangxiong was fully armed today, wearing armor, and rushed to the Shahe front line where the two armies of Fuzhou and Jinzhou were facing each other, surrounded by Zhou Mu and a group of personal guards.
"Mingye." He Fangxiong called He Mingye.
"Master, what are your orders?" He Mingye was also fully draped today, and when he moved, his armor made a metal crashing sound.
He Mingye did not convince He Shibao, He Shibao got carried away in the successive victories and triumphant advances, He Mingye's initiative to negotiate peace made him feel that the Fuzhou army was weak, the Jinzhou army was strong, and the capture of Fuzhou was just a matter of probing. His ambitions swelled dramatically.
"This letter, you send a reliable person to send it to Teng Xiao." He Fangxiong took out a sealed letter and explained to He Mingye.
He Fangxiong's face was relaxed, and he seemed to be confident in quelling He Shibao's rebellion.
He Mingye took the letter from He Fangxiong and took the order.
On the other side of the Shahe front, He Shibao was on the fort gate north of Pangu Fort, holding on to the battlements on Pangu Fort, looking at the flowing Shahe River in the north.
The terrain around Pangu Fort is flat, Pangu Fort is the only commanding height within dozens of miles around, standing on the head of Pangu Fort City, you can have an unobstructed view of the surrounding scenery within a radius of ten miles or even longer, and take in the panoramic view.
The quicksand and the opposite bank are the neat camps of the Fuzhou army, and the big banners with congratulatory characters are rolled in the wind. On the banks of the quicksand river, the Fuzhou army has already set up a defensive position, preparing to block the Jinzhou army from crossing the river.
Looking at the rough defensive line hastily constructed by the Fuzhou army on the bank of the quicksand river, He Shibao smiled disdainfully. Can such a rough defensive position prevent the Golden State Army from carrying Fuzhou on its back? He Fangxiong, the head of the family, really came to an end.
"General, Madame is here." He Shibao's personal soldiers walked quickly to the head of the city to report to He Shibao.
"No need to announce, I'm already up." A crisp female voice sounded on the city tower, and a female woman wearing light chain mail climbed the city tower and walked straight to He Shibao. This woman will be Yan Fen, the wife of He Shibao's main house, the folk customs of Liaodong are fierce and martial, and many women can also fight in armor, which is also a beautiful scenery in Liaodong.
"With my wife helping me, Fuzhou will be able to go down." He Shibao smiled and said, "All the grain, grass and baggage have been transported?" ”
Yan Fen stroked his hair, which was a little disheveled by the wind, and replied, "The grain and grass transported this time are enough for the Jinzhou army for a month. ”
"Madame is really my virtuous helper, and when I become the head of the family, Madame will be the wife of the head of the family. Ha ha. He Shibao laughed.
Yan Fen was silent, thoughtful, and after a while, she said to He Shibao: "Husband, let's go back to Jinzhou, isn't it good to be our lord of a city?" The position of the head of this family is not disputed, and it is not fought for the purity of the fall. ”
He Shibao twisted his eyebrows, twisted into a Sichuan character, and said in a displeased tone: "Madam, how can you say such frustrating words today, don't you believe that your husband can defeat Fuzhou?" ”
Yan Fen sighed lightly: "It's all a family, why do you have to call around, not all the dead are your own family, husband, you can be left behind?" Can the people of He's three states be settled? ”
"Humph!" He Shibao snorted heavily, "I don't mean competing for the position of the head of the family, I don't mean for myself, if the eldest brother has a father's talent, why should I fight for the position of the head of the family!" I am willing to give up this head of the family to the eldest brother! But what? The eldest brother is addicted to wine all day long, and the position of the head of the family falls into the hands of the eldest brother, and my He clan will inevitably decline! In today's chaos in Liaodong, the He people must have a wise family master to lead the He people to stand tall in the forest of strong clans in Liaodong! ”
He Shibao breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "The third brother is more than enough to be enterprising, and the three places are concubines, so they can't be the head of the family, only me!" It's just me! Only I have this qualification, this ability to be the head of the He family! I am not only the head of the family for myself, but also for the He clan and the people of the He family! And for our loyalty! ”
Yan Fen shook his head and said: "The head of the family is wise, even if it is a heroic twilight, I am afraid it is not something that the Jinzhou Army can shake, and the head of the family is not as easy to deal with as you think." ”
Under Pangu Fort, the Jinzhou military camp was neatly arranged, and a team of Jinzhou troops wearing well-armored armor and with a clear banner shuttled back and forth between the camps. On the other hand, the Fuzhou Army on the other side of the Shahe River, although the Fuzhou Army's camp was neat, the spiritual morale displayed by the Fuzhou soldiers was obviously much worse than that of the Jinzhou Army.
With such a strong army in hand, I am afraid that I will not be able to defeat Fuzhou. It is true that He Fangxiong is talented, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, He Fangxiong is no matter how talented he is, what if he does not have a strong army that can be commanded. In the past, when He Shijie's Xiao Riding Camp was alive, He Shibao was still afraid of He Fangxiong.
Now, He Fangxiong has no strong army under him, and he He Shibao has a strong army like the Jinzhou Army, who can organize him as the head of the family?! Why don't you worry about not being able to defeat Fuzhou?!
"Dad is wise, but in recent years, it is an indisputable fact that the He clan has been declining, Dad is old and confused, you look at the Fuzhou army opposite, and then look at our Jinzhou army! Will the Fuzhou Army be the opponent of our Golden State Army, Fuzhou City is at your fingertips! ”
He Shibao pointed to the Fuzhou army on the other side of the Shahe River, and some pointed to the Jinzhou army under Pangubao City, and he was a little excited, and it could even be said that he was a little crazy.
Looking at the arrogant He Shibao, Yan Fen was a little helpless, women's hearts are thinner and more sensitive than men, she knows that her husband is quite capable of governing the army. However, the management of a family like the He family, which has been inherited for nearly three hundred years, is far from being as simple as governing the army, and the bigwigs in the He clan may not be able to serve the He He Lion and Leopard, and the He Lion and Leopard are still in a disgraceful way.
He Shibao can be an excellent general, but He Shibao will not become an excellent family leader.
"Husband, are you determined to attack Fuzhou?"
Yan Fen's tone was a little helpless, but He Shibao, who was so emotional that he was almost crazy, didn't notice the helplessness that Yan Fen revealed.
"Ma'am." He Shibao walked into Yan Fen's side, put one hand on Yan Fen's shoulder, and said softly, "Within a month, I entered Fuzhou with my wife's hand and my wife, at that time, I was the head of the He family, and Madam, you are the first lady of the He family, I have been waiting for this day for a long time." ”
Yan Fen didn't speak, just shook her head slightly. (To be continued.) )
