Chapter Seventy-Eight: Situ's Nephew
The army marched forward for six or seven days, crossed the Hutuo River, and entered the territory of Yanmen County.
Due to the friction with Yuan Xi, Yuan Mai and Liyi have ghosts in their hearts, and Yuan Xi has completely taken over the army that once belonged to Liyi, and it is pointless to go to the Yanmen camp again. Therefore, Yuan Mai and Lu Yi deliberately had to ask the men and horses to take the eastern route, bypass the Yin Pavilion City, and avoid meeting Yuan Xi.
In the evening of that day, the army passed under the county town of Mayi to see that it was close to evening, and Liyi ordered to set up camp.
"Ma Yi? Is this the city of Mayi? Stopping under the county seat, Yuan Mai was excited.
"Yes, this is the county seat of Mayi, but there are only 1,500 households, and there are no more than 10,000 people in the city, what is there to marvel at?" Koji Yi and Tian Feng were accompanying Yuan Mai to inspect the situation of each battalion, and when they heard Yuan Mai suddenly say this, they asked in some surprise.
"You don't understand!" Yuan Mai smiled slightly, but he couldn't calm down in his heart.
What I am amazed by is not the scale of the county, such counties abound all over the country, what I am amazed is a talent born in this county, Zhang Liao - Zhang Wenyuan, a native of Yanmen Mayi. Outstanding generals of this era!
Even in the entire history of China, Zhang Liao is also an outstanding general, conquering Liaodong, cutting down, defending Hefei, rejecting Dongwu, taking charge alone, fighting in Xiaoyaojin, breaking Sun Quan's 100,000 army, shocking the world, killing Dongwu children dare not cry at night, how majestic?
Cao Cao's generals will list thousands of soldiers and bring a million. And the one who can win the highest general as a general with a different surname is also Zhang Wenyuan, whose status in the Cao Wei group is second only to Cao Ren, Xiahoudun and Xiahou Yuan, so people in later generations especially respect Zhang Liao.
In many Three Kingdoms games, Zhang Liao is the number one military general under Cao Cao, and his values are gorgeous and popular. is a super-first-class military general in the game of the Three Kingdoms, Yuan Mai also liked Zhang Liao very much before he crossed over, and he didn't dare to say anything about his allusions and history, but he could know a rough idea.
"Meet the generals, the army must have been extremely tired after a long journey, right? The lower official had already prepared a wine feast, and invited several generals and adults into the city for a banquet, and the lower official expressed his affection. ”
I heard that the Northern Expedition army set up camp three miles below the city, and the county commander and the county lieutenant hurriedly ordered people to buy wine and food, and then brought their entourage out of the city to invite the generals to a banquet.
"Okay, since the county magistrate has the intention to invite you, let's go into the city for a meal!"
Yuan Mai patted his stomach and agreed boldly. The march is a chore, along the way to eat and sleep, not to eat or drink, since someone invited, then go into the city to eat.
At the moment, the county commander and the county lieutenant led the way in front, Yuan Mai, Tian Feng, and Liyi, the three giants of the Northern Expeditionary Army, followed the county order into the Mayi County Ya.
Entering the county seat, Yuan Mai let the horse go slowly, glanced at the situation in the county, and saw that the houses were in good order, although the sky had darkened, but the pedestrians on the street were still bustling, and the noise of buying and selling was not lively.
"Well, to be able to run a small county town with a side plug so lively, this county order has some skills." Jiang Li pointed to the wine shops along the way with the horsewhip in his hand, and said to Tian Feng and Ko Yi.
"Yes, Yanmen County is located in the north of the Saibei, and the Xiongnu tribes often enter the Kou, and the people in the city can live and work in peace and contentment, not afraid of the invasion of the Xiongnu, this county order is indeed a bit capable." Tian Feng nodded in approval.
Listening to the praise of the two adults, the county magistrate was very happy, and Le Ma said modestly: "Thank you for the praise, since the lower officials are local parents, they naturally have the responsibility to let them have enough food and clothing, and live and work in peace and contentment." There is nothing to do here, and it is all due to the merit of General Koji in guarding Yanmen. ”
It is a long-standing tradition of the Chinese people to pat on the back, and Koi Yi was put on a high hat and said happily: "If I'm not mistaken, isn't the county commander's surname Wang?" ”
"Xiaguan Wang Ling, I didn't expect General Koji to remember me, it's really a blessing for three lives." Wang Xianling replied with a smile on his face.
Wang Ling was just an ordinary figure in the early period of the Three Kingdoms, and his name was not loud, and Yuan Mai couldn't remember much about his deeds for a while. But I feel a sense of déjà vu, if I really list his deeds, I can't say a few, and I vaguely feel that this person is a character.
"Could it be Situ Wang Yun's nephew?" Yuan Mai couldn't remember the origin of such a person, but Tian Feng had heard his rumors and asked in a lost voice.
In Tian Feng's memory, Wang Ling is a native of Qi County, Taiyuan County, and his uncle is a famous big man in this era. Wang Ling was the nephew of the minister of the humerus of the Great Han Dynasty, and he was serving as a staff member in Wang Yun's mansion at that time.
Later, Lü Bu succeeded in stabbing Dong Zhuo, Li Dao and Guo Bi collected the remnants of the defeated generals and invaded Chang'an, Lü Bu was defeated, and Wang Yun was martyred. The Xiliang soldiers wantonly slaughtered Wang Yun's family, Wang Ling and his brother Wang Chen saw that the situation was not good, escaped over the wall, and sneaked back to the township incognito. It was not until Li Dao and Guo Yan lost power that the Wang brothers dared to show their true identities in the countryside and were elected as filial piety by the county order.
Gao Gan took charge of the annexation of the prefecture, first appointed Wang Ling as the county lieutenant of Dingxiang County, and later changed to the county magistrate of Mayi County. After taking office, Wang Ling made great efforts to govern the country, led the people of the county to open up wasteland and cultivate fields, fortified the city wall, and recruited displaced people everywhere, so that the population of Mayi increased greatly from the original 1,500 households to 2,500 households, and the population also increased from 11,000 to 18,000 people, which is a remarkable achievement.
"Xia Guan is the nephew of the late Situ Wang Yun, but Lord Lao Tian remembers it." Wang Ling hurriedly hugged his wrist and said modestly.
Tian Feng stroked his beard and sighed: "Alas...... Wang Situ was dedicated to the country and designed to kill Dong Thief, but who expected that in the end, he would be martyred and forced to death by rats such as Li Dao and Guo Yan, which is really a sigh! ”
Wang Ling couldn't help crying when he heard this, and sighed: "Uncle murdered Dong Thief yesterday, and in a blink of an eye, it has been five years. On that day, the thieves attacked the city, and my uncle could have escaped, but he claimed to be the Situ of the Han family, and he had to die for the country, how could he steal his life? So he jumped from the palace gate and was killed by the rebels. ”
Tian Feng sighed: "Wang Situ's loyalty and righteousness are admirable, under the shaky Han family, it is really commendable to have such a feat!" ”
Yuan Mai didn't say a word, listened to the conversation between Tian Feng and Wang Ling, and gradually remembered this person. This person should be regarded as a usable talent in the history of the Three Kingdoms, and all the values in the game are excellent. And this person has also done a lot in history, can use soldiers, can govern the country, and can be regarded as able to write and martial arts. In the later period of Cao Wei, he gradually rose, and the official worshiped the general of the chariot cavalry, and later replaced Gao Rou to take the position of Sikong, which was considered prominent.
However, Wang Ling was in a prominent position, and was very dissatisfied with the weakness and incompetence of the emperor Cao Fang of the current dynasty, and also had sharp contradictions with the Sima family, and conspired with his nephew Linghu Yu to abolish Cao Fang and change Cao Cao's son Cao Biao as the emperor.
When he was dying, he called out his friend Jia Kui's name: "Jia Liangdao, only you know that Wang Ling is a loyal minister of Great Wei!" And I am now 80 years old, and I am ruined, unable to turn the tide, and it is not a pity to die! ”
In the later period of Cao Wei, such a person should be regarded as a heavyweight, but he didn't expect to be inadvertently met by himself. Although Yuan Mai didn't know his story in such detail, he also knew that this was a usable talent, so he suddenly became intrigued. The Wang family is more handsome, first met Wang Ping, and then met Wang Ling, these two people are enough to lay a solid foundation for their future hegemony in the later stage.
