Zhang Jinjie sighed secretly in his heart, at this time, the emperor is still thinking about the food problem in Xingyang, whether he can keep Luojing is imminent, if Luojing is not guaranteed, what is the use of keeping Xingyang's granary?

Although he knew that the emperor was unhappy, he couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, the key is not in food, but in employing people, if the army is defeated again, Luo Jing's last bit of strength will be exhausted, what will be used to defend Luo Jing then?" Who will ensure that the Xingyang granary is not lost? Yang Sheng is old and mediocre, how can he take on such a heavy responsibility at this time, Your Majesty, no! ”

"Zhang Xiangguo, are you teaching me a lesson about employing people?" Huangfu Heng said with a gloomy face.

"Weichen doesn't dare, but please think about the lesson of Jinju, isn't it Yang Sheng's mediocrity and incompetence that led to the fiasco of Jinju?"

"I just learned the lesson of Jinju, can Li Yan do it? Where is he now? Is Qin and Han Wu good at fighting? Where is he now? They all surrendered to Yongzhou, although Yang Sheng was defeated, but he refused Yongzhou's persuasion to surrender, and desperately fled back to Luojing, can't I see clearly? ”

"Although Yang Sheng is loyal to His Majesty, he is over seventy years old after all, and his mediocre ministers know very well that he can't be made a marshal because he is loyal, he will really bury His Majesty's society, think twice! Your Majesty. ”

Zhang Jinjie knelt on the ground, tears fell, Huangfu Heng looked at him coldly, his heart was extremely bored, Yang Sheng was already old and mediocre, of course he knew, but it was not that Zhang Jinjie was incompetent, the fundamental reason for the defeat of Jinzhou was that Li Yan and Qin Hanwu surrendered for fear of fighting to the death, and Qin Hanwu's 80,000 troops were not even injured, which was not Yang Sheng's responsibility.

Huangfu Heng restrained the annoyance in his heart, and said coldly: "Chen Liu's chief He Qianjue is brave and wise, he has been in the army for 20 years, he has deep seniority in the army, he enjoys prestige in the army, he commands an army of 50,000 people, and the military discipline is strict, so I let him replace Yang Sheng as the commander, what does Zhang Xiangguo think?" ”

Zhang Jinjie said proudly: "The minister thinks it is completely feasible, He Qianjue is the son of the former Left Guard general He Zheng, a famous general, resourceful, if Your Majesty can use him as a marshal, it is a hundred times stronger than Yang Sheng." ”

"Really?"

Huang Fu Heng suddenly became furious, he kicked the table hard, and shouted: "He will take my head to ask for a reward, he has already led the army to surrender Huang Fu Chen, don't you know?" ”

Zhang Jinjie was stunned, He Qianjue actually surrendered, how could this be?

"This.... This, Your Majesty, the minister really doesn't know!"

Huangfu Heng was almost mad, he sat down, and said angrily: "I ordered him to lead his troops to Pengcheng County to pick up the Huangfu Handsome Department who fled from defeat, but I didn't expect him to lead the army into Jiyin County and surrender to Huangfu Yuan, and also said that the bird chooses a good tree to perch, Zhang Xiangguo, he is the family of famous generals you think, and he can replace Yang Sheng's generalissimo, although Yang Sheng is mediocre, he will not betray me, and he will die if he dies, do you understand?" ”

Zhang Jinjie sighed in his heart, He Qianjue surrendered to King Qi because after his defeat in Jinzhou, he strongly asked to kill Yang Sheng to thank the world, and Huangfu Heng not only did not hold him responsible, but also continued to use Yang Sheng as the generalissimo, He Qianjue was disappointed in his heart, seeing that the general trend had gone, how could he not surrender?

Although this is a reason, he also knows that it is a bit far-fetched, the fundamental reason is that He Qianjue thinks that Yuzhou is difficult to protect, in the final analysis, it is still a wise man to protect himself, they are all the sons of the first emperor, who is the emperor Isn't it the Daning Dynasty?

Zhang Jinjie had to get up silently and bow down, "The minister retires!" ”

Huang Fuheng also felt that his attitude was a little too harsh, he eased his tone and said: "Zhang Xiangguo is very moved by my social considerations, but not long after I ascended the throne, I did not have deep control over the army, let alone a general who was loyal to me, and I also knew that Yang Sheng was mediocre, but at least he could convince me that he would not surrender and betray, and I also had difficulties!" ”

"The minister can understand, if it is a war against an alien race, maybe there will be no such problem."

Huangfu Heng smiled bitterly, Zhang Jinjie got to the point, he didn't know, so he couldn't find a credible person, and his army had become the rank of these generals.

"Zhang Xiangguo, you retire! I want to think about it alone for a while. ”

Zhang Jinjie saluted and retreated, Huangfu Heng looked at the map anxiously, 600,000 troops attacked him from both sides, this time it was really fierce and auspicious, if you want to break the current predicament, you can only count on Huangfu Wujin, 200,000 Xiliang troops to attack Guanzhong, and then send out 200,000 Chuzhou troops to attack Qizhou, encircle Wei and save Zhao Zhice, Yong, Qi and the two armies will inevitably retreat.

But he also knows that if he wants Huangfu Wujin to send troops, it is impossible not to take out a little real money, he also knows what Huangfu Wujin wants, he wants Jingzhou, but Jingzhou is his only way out, Huangfu Heng He thought about it for a long time, or let out a long sigh, let's talk about the situation when it is the worst!

．．．．．．．．．． Zhang Jinjie left Ziwei Palace, and the ministers immediately surrounded him, and asked gossipily: "Xiangguo, can the emperor remove Yang Sheng?" Zhang Jinjie shook his head, sighed and said: "Destiny is like this, it's not you and I can redeem it, let's disperse!" ”

Everyone was stunned, Zhang Jinjie was worried, and he didn't say a word more, and left gloomily with his hands behind his back, and the ministers looked at each other, no one knew what to do?

Back in the house, Zhang Jinjie locked himself in the study and instructed his subordinates that he was unwell and would not see anyone.

Zhang Jinjie is in a heavy mood, at this critical moment, Huang Fuheng thinks of not talent, but loyalty, he would rather appoint the mediocre and incompetent Yang Sheng, than the talented He Qianjue, He Qian will never be used, angry and thrown, but in turn make Huang Fuheng more distrustful of outsiders, this is a bad cycle, Zhang Jinjie sighed, he has a premonition that Yuzhou is about to perish.

The big trees are about to fall, the birds and beasts are scattered, where should he go in Zhang Jinjie?

"Sir!" There was a report from the butler outside the door, "The second son sent someone to deliver a letter." ”

The second son is Zhang Rong, who served as a senior position in Chuzhou, and at this time he sent someone to deliver a letter..... At this time, his son sent someone to deliver a letter, which made Zhang Jinjie seem to think of something? Then he commanded, "Let him in!" ”

After a while, a capable man was ushered in, and he bowed and saluted: "Villain Zhao Meng, on the order of Zhang Envoy, I have come to send a letter to Xiangguo!" ”

He took out a letter and handed it respectfully, Zhang Jinjie took the letter and did not panic, but asked him, "Does my son have any other messages?" ”

"Zhang Yuanjun has another sentence, let me tell Xiangguo, the two brothers are south of the Yangtze River, I hope my father will also pass, just this sentence, there is nothing else."

Zhang Jin nodded, he understood the meaning of this sentence, the eldest son Zhang Qun, was transferred from Chenliu County to Jingzhou Nanjun last year as a thorn in history, and the second son Zhang Rong was also in Chuzhou, both brothers hoped that they would also go to Jingchu, he smiled bitterly, how easy is this?

"You've worked hard all the way, go down and rest!"

Zhang Jinjie instructed the housekeeper, "Reward fifty taels of silver, good entertainment!" ”

The messenger was grateful, and retired with the housekeeper, Zhang Jinjie opened his son's letter, and saw that the first sentence at the beginning was, 'King Liang wants to take the world, and he is willing to take his father as his ......'

Zhang Jinjie's heart trembled, and he continued to look down, and the letter was written with two pages, basically analyzing the major forces in the world, and the final conclusion was that Huangfu Wujin would sweep the world and regain the throne of Jin'an.

Zhang Jinjie knew all of these in his heart, but at the end of the letter, his son intentionally or unintentionally revealed a sentence: 'On the occasion of this competition for the Central Plains, although the sword of King Liang is pointing south, it is not intended in Lingnan'.

This sentence made Zhang Jinjie stunned for a while, is it false that Huangfu Wujin fought Guangzhou?

He hurriedly found a map, spread it out in front of him to look at it carefully, and pointed to Poyang County, he got the news that the Chuzhou army was stationed here, and Poyang County was close to Linchuan County in the south, and Jingzhou was across Poyang Lake, Zhang Jinjie was taken aback, did Huangfu Wujin want to take the opportunity to swallow Jingzhou?

Wait a minute! He forced himself to calm down, it should be unlikely, Huangfu Wujin was only recognized by Huangfu Heng as the grandson of Emperor Jin'an not long ago, he took advantage of the fire to rob at this time, it was unrighteous, it would make the world look down on him, he should not do it, Su Xun was also in Chuzhou, he would definitely dissuade him.

If Huangfu Wujin is not in Jingzhou, where will it be? Zhang Jinjie's eyes fell on Qizhou, could it be that Huangfu Wujin feinted to take Guangzhou and actually attacked Qizhou? If so, it's a brilliant move.

Zhang Jinjie's heart was excited, he stood up and wanted to report to the emperor, but slowly he sat down again, he knew Huang Fuheng very well, he was suspicious, if he told him that he was a hint of his son, then he would definitely suspect that he was colluding with Chuzhou, and it was very unwise to run away like this.

Zhang Jinjie sighed again in his heart, his son persuaded himself to be loyal to Huangfu Wujin, but there was some truth, Huangfu always favored his relatives and did not believe in ministers, which made him very disappointed; And Yongjing's name is Daning, which is actually the Shen dynasty, and it is not his turn to Zhang Jinjie; King Qi is a martial artist, more than brave, not enough civil governance, not even a brother-in-law can not manage the world, how can he manage the world, and his name is not right, the society of the Daning Dynasty is not his turn.

Huangfu Wujin is the grandson of Emperor Jin'an, is the orthodoxy of Daning, and is named King Liang, according to the iron tablet of Taimiao, King Liang is ranked after the King of Chu, and he is Su Xun's grandson-in-law, can be accepted by the world's corporans, and it is a good choice to defect to him.

Zhang Jinjie paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, he was very conflicted in his heart, he had just persuaded Huang Fuheng to dare to use people, but he had a different heart, no wonder Huang Fuheng could only use Yang Sheng, it was indeed helpless, but his own ideas were by no means the way of ministers, he couldn't just leave, even Su Hanchang didn't leave Luoyang, how could he Zhang Jinjie turn his back on the emperor?

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and someone ran over, only to hear the housekeeper say at the door: "Master, I just heard the news that the Qi army has broken through Liang County." ”

Zhang Jinjie's ah! With a bang, he was stunned for a moment, Yucheng County, Liang County is his ancestral hometown.

．．．．．．．． After the army of King Qi captured the East Palace, it immediately divided its troops into three routes, one route Luo Qiyu continued to lead 30,000 troops along the Yellow River to the west, and went straight to the granary Xingyang County.

One route Qi Wang Huangfu led 200,000 troops into Jiyin County, in Jiyin County, Chen Liu's governor He Qianjue led 50,000 troops to surrender, Huangfu was overjoyed, named him the head of Liang Qiao, commanding the soldiers and horses of Liang Qiao's two counties, Huang Fu Yuan immediately led the army to the west to advance rapidly, through Liang County and then roundabout to Xingyang County to outflank.

The other army, led by the general Zhao Ziwei, with an army of 70,000, also passed through Liang County, but marched southwest to Yingchuan County, with the goal of occupying the southwest of Yuzhou, Huangfu Yuan's strategy was very obvious, he did not want to attack Luoyang, but wanted to occupy as much land as possible in Yuzhou.

At this moment, a battle of 400,000 troops broke out in Mianchi County, west of Luoyang, and Luoyang's life and death were fought here.
