======
Zhang Xuan's army only rested for half a day in Wei County, and after replenishing dry food, they continued their journey and entered the Mangmang Taihang Mountain from the Fukou Gorge.
Fukou is a relatively long passage in the Taihang Eight Mountains, the strategic value is slightly inferior to Jingcheng, not because the road is rugged to the south, but after crossing the Taihang Mountain, Jingcheng directly arrives at the key place of Taiyuan County, and Fukou is to arrive in the northern mountainous area of Shangdang County, and it is necessary to go over the mountains and mountains to walk hundreds of miles to reach Taiyuan City.
In the spring of March, the flowers in Fukou are in full bloom, thousands of purples and thousands of reds, there are birds singing and flowers everywhere, the scenery is extremely beautiful, but the five thousand Sui troops are just silently marching quickly, and no one has the heart to enjoy the scenery along the way.
"How could Jun Cheng be transferred to Wei County?" It was only at this time that Jang Hyun finally found an opportunity to ask Yang Shanhui about the reason for the transfer.
Yang Shanhui sighed, "The general was transferred to Jianghuai, the imperial court took over Qingzhou, except for a few important positions in Beihai County, the rest of the Taishou county orders were all transferred away, and replaced by officials directly appointed by the imperial court, it is not an exaggeration to describe it with the words 'comprehensive purge'." β
Zhang Xuan's face was very ugly, before, Wei Yunqi wrote to himself and said a little about this matter, he guessed that the imperial court had begun to purge the officials he had promoted, but his feelings were not direct, but today he met Yang Shanhui. He felt the pain of the imperial court's purge of Qingzhou officialdom, needless to say, Qingzhou was already unrecognizable at this time, otherwise, the tone in Wei Yunqi's heart would not be so helpless.
"How is Juncheng in Wei County?" After a moment of silence, Zhang Xuan asked again.
Yang Shanhui smiled bitterly, "Fang Taishou is a protΓ©gΓ© of the Qinghe Cui clan. and have a marriage with the Bai family of Xiangguo County, how could they let me, an outsider, be in charge of the government affairs of Wei County, Fang Taishou has three staff, one is in charge of money, one is in charge of things, and one is in charge of people, they are the real county officials of Wei County, I am just a false position, and the official room is empty. Without any paperwork, I have been the county chief for three months, and I don't even know how many people Wei County has. β
Zhang Xuan was very annoyed in his heart, and estimated that the situation of the other transferred officials was not much better, when he was transferred to Jianghuai, the imperial court promised to maintain the stability of Qingzhou, but as soon as he left, they immediately took action. It's just too deceitful.
"General, I don't want to go back to Wei County."
Yang Shanhui sighed and said, "I'd rather resign and go home than be a puppet." It's too aggrieved, and I really can't stand this kind of officialdom exclusion. β
Zhang Xuan nodded, "In that case, don't do this county, from today onwards you will be the Sima in the army, and I will explain the situation to the Ministry of War." β
Yang Shan will be overjoyed. hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Thank you for the general's retention, I will definitely do my duty!" ββ¦β¦
Four days later, Zhang Xuan's army also arrived at Lou Fu Pass, and at this time, all the counties in the world responded to the order of King Qin of the Son of Heaven. Countless armies of all sizes gathered in the direction of Taiyuan from all directions, and in less than half a month, the army that arrived in Taiyuan exceeded 200,000 people, and the troops of all counties in the world still rushed to Taiyuan in a steady stream.
The three armies of Yun Dingxing, Li Yuan, and Xue Shixiong, with about 80,000 men, were facing off against 100,000 Turkic cavalry, and because Xue Shixiong was seriously wounded, this army was actually commanded by Yun Dingxing.
On the city wall of the pass, Yun Dingxing looked at the mountains in the distance with complicated eyes, just now, Yuwen Zhihe brought the order of his father Yuwenshu, Yuwenshu asked him to rush to Yanmen County immediately to rescue the driver, Yun Dingxing's face showed a mocking sneer, asking himself to go to Yanmen County to rescue the driver, how noble, why didn't he just say that he would let him die?
Yun Dingxing knew better than anyone else that the 100,000 Turkic cavalry they confronted was only the first wave, just a deliberate weakness of the Turkic Khan, once his army went north, there would immediately be a second 100,000 Turkic cavalry from the eastern front, at that time he would face the siege of the 200,000 Turkic army, and it was likely to suffer the fate of the annihilation of the entire army, and he Yun Dingxing could not afford such a heavy responsibility.
"Why hasn't General Yun sent troops yet?"
I don't know when, Yuwen Zhihe appeared behind Yun Dingxing, with reproach in his tone, he told Yun Dingxing about his father's order last night, but now it is noon the next day, and Yun Dingxing still has no sign of sending troops, which makes Yuwen Zhihe very dissatisfied.
"It's not time to send troops yet." Yun Dingxing said lightly.
"But my father thinks now is the time to send troops!" Yu Wenzhi and viciously stared at Yun Dingxing fiercely.
Yun Dingxing finally couldn't bear it anymore, and turned around and glared at Yuwen Zhiji, "Whether to attack on the battlefield or not is not something that can be decided by the person lying on the bed at home!" β
After speaking, he and Yuwen Zhihe passed by, and walked quickly towards the city, Yuwen Zhihe was motionless, anger erupted from his eyes, and his fists slowly clenched, this damn bastard dared not to obey his father's orders.
Yun Dingxing walked down the city wall angrily in his heart, he was extremely dissatisfied with Yu Wenshu in his heart, a person who was about to die, he still wanted to pinch himself in the palm of his hand, what did he think of himself, did he still think that he was really his marionette?
At this time, a soldier rushed over and knelt down on one knee to report, "General Qiyu, General Zhang has led the army to the outside of the city!" β
Yun Dingxing nodded, feeling quite a little in his heart, there were already a lot of troops from King Qin from all over the country, but they were either in Taiyuan County or Loufu County, but the first army to arrive at Loufu Pass was Zhang Xuan from Jianghuai, this is the real general.
He hurriedly went to the outside of the city, at this time, walking on the side of the city wall Yu Wenzhi and heard that Zhang Xuan had arrived, he was secretly surprised in his heart, if Zhang Xuan found himself here, I am afraid that there is no good fruit to eat, although he hated Zhang Xuan deeply, but he was extremely afraid of Zhang Xuan, Yu Wenzhi and hurriedly walked along the city wall to the camp in the pass.
Outside the south gate of the pass, Zhang Xuan led 5,000 troops to wait in line, and after a while, the city gate opened, Yun Dingxing hurried out, and Lao Yuan said loudly: "General Zhang came from thousands of miles away, which is admirable!" β
Zhang Xuan stepped forward and saluted, "See the general!" β
Yun Dingxing patted him on the shoulder and said sincerely: "When I saw the loyal ministers in times of crisis, I never imagined that the first army to rush to support was General Zhang who was far away in Jianghuai, General Zhang, please follow me into the city!" β
Zhang Xuan followed Yun Dingxing towards Guannei, and he asked with a smile: "My vanguard General Yuanqing should have arrived!" β
"He's already here, and he's currently serving as a peripheral scout in Mayi County, so he should be back in the next two days."
Zhang Xuan nodded, and at this time, Li Yuan also walked quickly to the city gate to greet Zhang Xuan, "Virtuous nephew, I haven't seen you for a long time." β
Zhang Xuan Shili said with a smile: "When I passed through Taiyuan, I heard that Li Gong had led his army north, and it was Zhang Xuan's luck to be able to fight side by side with Li Gong!" β
"I should have said this, it is Li Yuan's blessing to be able to fight with the world-famous General Zhang."
Everyone laughed and walked into the gate together, Yun Dingxing ordered someone to arrange for Zhang Xuan's army to enter the camp to rest, and he and Li Yuan personally accompanied Zhang Xuan to the city.
"General Zhang, the reason why we stationed troops at Loufu Pass did not go north is because the Turkic army has laid a trap for us in the north, if we rush north, we will face a siege of 200,000 troops, and we only have 80,000 people, it is difficult to match the other party!"
Li Yuan next to him also said: "General Yun said a lot, this is a typical siege of the city for reinforcements, as far as we know, the Turkic army has stopped attacking the city and besieged the city, once we go north, not only can we not break the siege, but will be surrounded and annihilated by the Turkic cavalry." β
Zhang Xuan shook his head secretly in his heart, the starting point of the two was that they were no match for the Turks, when Yang Su broke the 200,000 Turkic cavalry with 50,000 cavalry, where did the majesty of the Sui army go?
After pondering for a moment, Zhang Xuan asked again, "What is the attitude of the Son of Heaven?" β
"There is no news from the Son of Heaven so far."
In fact, this is also what Yun Dingxing is most worried about, can the Holy Lord understand his painstaking efforts to contain the Turkic cavalry, will he think that he is afraid and does not fight?
Yun Dingxing sighed and said, "Since the Son of Heaven issued the Qin Wang Decree, there has been no news, and we can't get in touch with the city. β
Zhang Xuan thought about it, it was not yet time to draw conclusions, he had to wait for Pei Xingyan to come back.
At night, Zhang Xuan checked the topographic map of Mayi County and Yanmen County in the big tent, which was the topographic map that Yang Shanhui got when he passed by Taiyuan, which was very clear and comprehensive. β
Zhang Xuan perked up and hurriedly said, "Quickly let him in!" (To be continued.) )
