Chapter 603: The Rebellion and Separation of Relatives
In the mountains, in a huge valley, Cen Wenwen, Dou Hongxian and others gathered together, everyone's faces were solemn, Liu Heimin looked at Cen Wenwen speechless, Li Ren'an, Li Shousu and others also did not speak.
"According to what General Su said, we still have to wait here for a month, but how can I get the grain and grass for my 70,000 army, does Mr. Cen have a plan?" Fan Yuan finally spoke.
"Although the army of 70,000 is only a month, the amount of grain and grass consumed is also very large, and besides, there is not much grain and grass in our mountains. If you don't get the support of Guanzhong, after a month, I am afraid that you will not be able to support the army that destroys Qu Tutong. Ling Jing's gaze fell on Li Ren'an, Li Shousu and others, and the meaning in his words was self-evident, they were ready to let the Li family pay this money and food.
"My Li family can produce 50,000 stones of grain and grass." Li Ren'an said without thinking.
"My Lin family is also willing to give 10,000 stones of grain." Another family also spoke.
"I'm out too"
With Li Ren'an's words in the big tent, the other flat thorn families are big or small, all have grain and grass, as many as 50,000 stones, and small hundreds of stones, it seems that there is a lot of food, but it is extremely difficult to transport it in, fortunately, these families are powerful, Li Shimin is not in Hebei at this time, there is a lot less surveillance, plus the consumption along the way, I am afraid that when it comes to Dou Hongxian's hands, I am afraid that I can only get half of the grain.
"Thank you for your help, I believe that after the Turks are eliminated, the imperial court will definitely return this grain and grass to you." Cen Wenwen showed a humble smile on his face again, Dou Hongxian's face was much better, and Ling Jing and He Chou were silent.
"Now that we have food and grass, we can continue to stay in the mountains, but there are many poisons, insects and beasts in the mountains. The soldiers should also pay more attention, the marching doctors should also prepare more, and the families should also get more. Dou Hongxian said regretfully: "It's a pity that I heard that there are many special doctors in the imperial army, but it's a pity." ”
"There are many famous doctors in Hebei, if you want it, Hou Ye wants it. We'll just do it on your behalf. Li Hao said.
"Yes, yes, it's easy to find a few doctors." Li Ren'an also nodded, how he didn't understand his son's thoughts, but it was almost impossible to get the beauty to rest assured, even if the other party was interested, Li Xin would not allow Zhaojun Li to have an army. It is impossible for Xianghou Dou Hongxian to marry Li Hao, and Li Hao is destined to be impossible.
"Tell the soldiers to train hard. Although General Su is preparing for us to deal with Li Zhao this time, there are only 50,000 people in Hedong, and it is still uncertain whether he can resist the attack of the Turks, and we need to appear at the most critical time. The Turks have destroyed our homeland and killed our relatives, and we cannot let them leave Hebei, even if they die. also die in the Central Plains. Dou Hongxian said gloomily.
"The last general commands." Liu Heimin and others responded loudly.
"This time, we will give Li Zhao a fatal blow." Dou Hongxian looked around and said, "The prime minister has not returned to the army yet. I want to see if we have the ability to block Li Zhao's attack, and see, now that you have all been sealed and taken the benefits of the prime minister, in the end, even Li Zhao can't resist it, so it's better to go home and farm. ”
Inside the city of Xingyang. Wei Lu, Guo Qing, and Wang Yaohan sat together, among the three, Wei Lu was the general of Xingyang, Guo Qing was the general of Guanzhou, and Wang Yaohan was the general of Bianzhou. The three of them now gathered together, and in front of them was a letter from Zhang Zhenzhou.
Zhang Zhenzhou returned to Li Xin, so that the mountains and rivers of Henan shook, the most influential of which is Xingyang Wei Lu and others, these three people are not much away from Xuchang, and Zhang Zhenzhou is also an acquaintance, now Zhang Zhenzhou is obedient to Li Xin, Li Xin's soldiers have crossed Xuchang, and killed Xingyang, a posture with Wei Lu will hunt Xingyang, the county towns along the way are under Li Xin's soldiers, and they have surrendered the city, for a time, the whole Henan has changed color, Li Xin's voice is great.
"Two, now that the Tiger Prison Pass has been lost, Luoyang has become a lonely city, look, these guys can't wait, they can't wait to surrender Li Xin immediately, in exchange for merit and wealth!" Guo Qing's eyes rolled, glanced at Wei Lu and Wang Yaohan, and said with a smile.
"People's hearts change, isn't it all like this! There's nothing strange about it, isn't it? Wei Lupi said with a smile. What can't be hidden between the eyebrows is a trace of sorrow, it is as Zhang Zhenzhou guessed, Wei Bao is actually the evil seed born by his and his sister-in-law, but among the nephews of the Wei family, only Wei Bao still has some ability, and the rest are a group of gentlemen. Of course, Wei Bao himself is not very good, probably because of guilt, Wei Lu still has a lot of feelings for his illegitimate son. Now that Wei Bao has fallen into the hands of Pei Yuanqing, although there is no news yet, Wei Bao's heart is already in turmoil, even if he submits to Li Xin at this moment, he will seriously consider it.
"Brother Wei is ready to surrender Li Xin?" Wang Yaohan laughed and said, "It's normal for you to be obedient, hehe, after all, his son was captured alive by Pei Yuanqing." ”
"Hmph, two, don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, you also know the current situation, our emperor His Majesty is probably not good, vainly trying to assassinate the king of Tang, causing chaos in Guanzhong, and finally good, he did not kill the king of Tang, but made the king of Tang raise hundreds of thousands of troops to crusade against him, the funny thing is that he didn't even have a little preparation, he was besieged in Luoyang, there used to be a tiger prison in this direction, you can let us support the grain and grass, now it's good, even the tiger prison pass has been lost, I don't know what the two of you think in their hearts, Could it be that the two of you still think that our emperor has the power to return to heaven? If that's the case, if you don't say anything, just tie me up and send me to Luoyang. Wei Lu said with some dissatisfaction.
"Hehe, Brother Wei, look at what you said, we are all brothers, how could we do such a thing." Wang Yaohan and Guo Qing glanced at each other, and finally smiled dumbly: "Isn't this a test of Brother Wei?" ”
"What, you guys?" Wei Lu pointed at the two of them, and finally smiled dumbly: "Okay, I Wei Lu regarded the two as friends of life and death, but I didn't expect the two of them to come to trick me." ”
"Brother Wei, we have to do this!" Guo Qing glanced around, and saw that there were no soldiers or maids around, so he said in a low voice: "Brother Wei, look at our place, Guanzhou, Bianzhou, plus your Xingyang, what kind of place is this, this is the territory of the Kanto family, it is the territory of the Zheng family, we are a little moved, the Zheng family knows that Xingyang is better, just say that we are in charge of Zhou, there are 10,000 people in the army, at least 5,000 people are from the Kanto family, and Bianzhou is about the same, even if we want to return to the prime minister, I'm afraid the news has just been released, Our own heads have been taken from us. ”
"Brother Wei is in Xingyang, I'm afraid the situation is more complicated than ours! Is Xingyang really under Brother Wei's control? Guo Qing said lightly: "The Zheng family in Xingyang is the overlord of Xingyang, what you use, eat, and wear, that is not in the control of the Zheng family in Xingyang, on the surface, your army is not controlled, not your ability, but disdain." ”
Wei Lu's face was not good-looking when he heard it, although the two of them said it more tactfully, but in fact, it was true. He wants to use the Xingyang army to resist the Zheng family in Xingyang, but the Zheng family is probably not in his eyes.
"Hmph, I'm really in a hurry, uproot the Zheng family." Wei Lu said with a cold snort.
"It's not that simple, hey, if I knew earlier, I should have changed positions with Zhang Zhenzhou." Wang Yaohan said dissatisfiedly: "It seems that Li Shimin is very awesome, but he is in Hebei, what is Hebei, after being ravaged by the Turks, he doesn't know when he wants to recover, and it is almost impossible to defeat King Tang." ”
"We are just a small family, not as good as those big families, if we defect to Li Yuan, it will be a question whether our current position can be guaranteed." Guo Qing couldn't help but whisper.
In the Kanto region, the family family occupies an absolute advantage, especially like Li Yuan, who pays the most attention to blood, so the family occupies most of the positions in the imperial court, and the others are also minor officials, as for the generals in the army, they also rely on the generals of the Li family, and for other generals, most of them are middle and low-level officials, which is absolutely different from the atmosphere in Guanzhong. Therefore, Guo Qing and the others had little interest in joining Li Yuan's camp.
"So what now?" Wei Lu said in a low voice: "Zhang Zhenzhou sent a letter on the order of the prime minister, we have nothing to reply to him, I am afraid that when the prime minister leads the army, these families will force us to lead the army to fight." Can we defeat the Prime Minister? ”
"That's the prime minister beating us." Guo Qing's eyes rolled, and finally he approached the two of them and whispered a few words, the two of them hesitated for a while, and finally nodded to each other, revealing a trace of viciousness in the depths of their eyes. In troubled times, if you want to save your own life, then exchange other people's lives.
In Li Shimin's camp, Li Shimin's face was peaceful, showing a smile, sitting opposite was a handsome middle-aged man, his eyes were like Langxing, he was dressed in a brocade robe, and his temperament was elegant, but he was an upper-class character, his name was Zheng Yan, he was the son of Zheng Shanguo, this Zheng Yan was also a powerful character, he had followed Yang Xuangan to rebel back then, this rich second generation had no ability, but his identity was noble, the son of the prince of Xingyang County, in the Kanto family, the prestige was very high, who dared to say something to him. is still alive and well, and Li Shimin's current princess is Zheng Yan's daughter.
"Uncle Yue, I'm afraid that the Zheng family will need to contribute to the matter of Xingyang, Shimin heard that Wei Lu's nephew has been captured by Pei Yuanqing, I'm afraid he will submit to Li Xin because of this, if he submits to Li Xin, Xingyang will fall into the hands of Li Xin, for our Da Zhao, it is definitely not a good thing!" Li Shimin said with some worry.
"Where is Wei Bao his nephew, it is clearly an illegitimate child. However, King Qin can rest assured, if he is in other places, he will naturally have nothing to say, but in Xingyang, there is nothing that my Zheng family cannot do. Zheng Yan said proudly. (To be continued......)
