On this night, the changes in the situation in Qinzhou were almost calculated in hours. (To read the latest chapters of this book, please visit the biquge.info of Wèn Aishang Novel Network)

Murong Chunhua is hidden in Qinzhou City these days, in fact, he is almost as a staff officer by Zhang Mai's side, as the situation deteriorates, he always pays close attention to military changes, and almost loses sleep, but Zhang Mai suddenly fell asleep.

Since the Khitan approached the Huanma Heights, Zhang Mai has always slept lightly and easily wakes up, never slept so deeply, and now the crisis in the Huanma Heights has not been lifted, the threat of Liu Zhiyuan in the East is still there, but there is an elbow and armpit problem behind Qinzhou, Zhang Mai fell asleep at this time, which cannot but be said to be abnormal, which makes Murong Chunhua feel strange.

――――――――――――

There was an army crossing the river to sneak attack, and the Tiance army kept this matter very tightly, but after all, everyone saw the fire in the west, but the people just saw the fire and didn't know what it was.

In Qinzhou City, there is another person who feels that something is wrong, and this person is Yang Guangyuan, the envoy of the Xiongwu Festival. Yang Guangyuan is bald and one-armed, ugly in appearance, known as "Yang Bald", but he is also a famous general in the Central Plains, Li Congke relied on him very much, Shi Jingjiao made Li Congke's anti, and united with the Khitan from the north, Yang Guangyuan saw that it was difficult to resist and surrendered, Shi Jingjiao could enter Luoyang more smoothly, and Yang Guangyuan's apostasy was not unrelated.

Therefore, after Shi Jingjiao entered Luo, he attached great importance to Yang Guangyuan, Yang Guangyuan was very thoughtful, knowing that Shi Jingjiao liked loyal people although he rebelled, so although he was rich and noble, he often expressed his sullenness, Shi Jingjiao suspected that he was not greedy enough to be the emperor, and secretly sent someone to tempt him, but he heard Yang Guangyuan sigh and say: "The ministers are generals, and there are no shortcomings, but Zhang Shengtie died well, and the ministers are like this, and they are ashamed from the bottom of their hearts, and they are unhappy." ”

Zhang Shengtie is Zhang Jingda, what this means is that I hate to be as loyal to the death festival as a minister like Zhang Jingda, although I am rich but not what I want, Shi Jingjiao was even happier after hearing this, and relied more on Yang Guangyuan, and let Yang Guangyuan's third son Yang Chengzuo be a concubine, and the two families married.

Because of Tiance's threat, Shi Jingjiao ordered Yang Guangyuan to guard the northwest, hoping that he could do his part in resisting Tiance, but unexpectedly, the red satin blood spear arrived under the city of Qinzhou, and Yang Guangyuan actually opened the city and surrendered, which almost made Shi Jingjiao vomit blood in anger.

In the feudal towns where the states of western Qin surrendered, with his highest prestige, Fengxiang Jiedu made An Xianqi still his old subordinate, and Zhang Mai did not move him in order to appease the people's hearts, and often went in and out with him, working and resting together, in order to appease the generals of western Qin.

This night, the west of Qinzhou suddenly burst into flames, Yang Guangyuan was very surprised, and secretly discussed with his two sons Yang Chengxun and Yang Chengxin, thinking that something must happen to the west of Qinzhou. And for example, the situation of the army today seems to be a little bad, but we first betrayed Li Congke, and then betrayed Shi Jingjiao, and now even if we want to turn back, I am afraid that there is no way out. Although my brother is a colt, his life and death are now unknown. ”

Yang Guangyuan hesitated, and Yang Chengxin said: "Uncle An is also in the city now, why don't you invite him to ask?" ”

It turned out that Shi Jingjiao was deployed to defend the northwest, with Liu Zhiyuan to Chang'an, Yang Guangyuan to Zhenxiongwu, and Anxian Qi to Fengxiang, these three people were also the choice of the moment, Shi Jin was in the Central Plains, and won the Central Plains figures, and the famous generals in his army were far stronger than Meng Shuwei, otherwise how could the Central Plains compete with the Khitan for many years? In order to deal with the Tiance Army, Shi Jingjiao laid out three heavy generals at once, and his attention to the northwest can be seen, but he didn't expect Yang and An to defect so quickly.

Later, Guo Wei deployed in Fengxiang, the military affairs were increasingly complicated, and he was rigorous, and at this time, several Qin Xi generals recommended by An Xianqi took the lead and defeated the enemy in Qinggang Gorge and Fangqu Town, so Zhang Mai summoned An Xianqi to Qinzhou for questioning, and never put it back, so An Xianqi was also in the city.

Yang Guangyuan and An Xianqi have a good relationship, and the two have surrendered to Tiance, and the interests are at stake, and they have already had a tacit understanding to take care of each other secretly, and when they heard their son say this, they said: "Okay, but be careful." ”

Yang Chengxin secretly went to invite An Xianqi to come, Yang Guangyuan talked about the fire in the west, An Xianqi said: "I also heard about this, this fire is fierce, and there are a lot of changes in the city before and after, I expect that there will be changes in the west!" ”

Yang Guangyuan said: "You don't think Meng Shu will cross the river." ”

"It's hard to say," An Xianqi said, "It may also be that the Khitan has broken through the Huanma Heights and headed south." ”

Although the two of them were Liu Zhiyuan's deceased, they didn't expect Liu Zhiyuan to dare to take such a risk.

Yang Guangyuan said: "If that's the case, brother, what are your plans?" At this point, his eyes flickered.

An Xianqi said: "Meng Chang is not enough to succeed, and there are more than failures!" Even if the Shu army crosses the river, there will be no major trouble. But if it was the Khitan Iron Cavalry that killed nearby, that day Ceke would be really in danger! ”

Yang Guangyuan said: "If it's Meng Chang, let's ignore him." What if it's a Khitan? ”

An Xianqi said: "The Khitan is a foreign thief!" It doesn't matter if we rebel in the Central Plains, if we vote for the Khitan, it will be stigmatized! ”

Yang Guangyuan snorted lightly in his nostrils, and was speechless for a while.

Yang Chengxun said: "Uncle, if the Khitan is really killed, I am afraid that the army will be wiped out this time!" We are the new generals, and Marshal Zhang doesn't trust us, so I didn't see him transfer you to Qinzhou a few days ago? In fact, that's cutting your military power in disguise. They treat us like this, if the ship of Tiance really has to sink, in fact, we don't need to follow him to the funeral! ”

An Xianqi said: "Otherwise, I heard that the Tiance Army has an outstanding political reputation in the Ganlong area, and the people of Lianglan have the heart to live and die with Marshal Zhang, if this is the case, even if it is defeated in Qinxi this time, Marshal Zhang may not have a chance to turn the tables." It's called 'the one who wins with the same yu'! ”

Yang Guangyuan sneered: "The people are willing to live and die with Zhang Tiance? It's just hearsay. ”

"I think it's true." An Xianqi said: "Don't say anything else, let's just say that the two towns of Xiongwu and Fengxiang, Marshal Zhang has only been in the country for a long time, and he has already won the hearts of the people." If he can govern Qinxi like this, then Lianglan's political voice must be true. ”

Yang Chengxin said: "He is buying people's hearts. ”

An Xianqi said: "Even if he is buying people's hearts, why don't you see Li Congke and Shi Jingjiao also buying people's hearts?" If Li Congke and Shi Jingjiao can also buy people's hearts like this, not to mention that more than ten states in western Qin will rebel, I dare to say that they have already ruled the world, and it is their turn to get Khitan and Tiance to compete for the world here? ”

It turns out that Yang Guangyuan and An Xianqi were both famous generals in Shi Jin, but they are quite different, Yang Guangyuan is good at inviting favors, and An Xianqi can calm the army and the people, although he was not long in Fengxiang, he can govern the army and the people strictly but not brutally, mighty but not violent, and govern Fengxiang Mansion quite on the track, which also reduces a lot of internal pressure for Guo Weishun after he was stationed. Therefore, Zhang Mai's attitude towards Yang and An is also subtle: Yang Guangyuan is high-profile, and what he values is his influence; For An Xianqi, it has the meaning of a trial - that is to value his character. Yang and An's attitudes towards Zhang Mai are also subtly different.

Yang Guangyuan said: "Listen to my brother's statement, no matter whether you succeed or fail, you have to climb the big ship of Tiance?" ”

An Xianqi said: "Marshal Zhang has the death of the army and the people, even if the situation here is not good, it is really a westward collapse, and he can still hold Liangzhou." After holding Liangzhou, even if you are no longer able to win the Central Plains, it is still okay to stay in a corner. We followed him, and there was still a landing. But if you surrender to Khitan or Mengshu again, I'm afraid that it won't end well in the future. As for Shi Jingjiao...... He now longs to eat the flesh of the two of us, and sleep on the skin of the two of us. ”

"Not necessarily." Yang Chengxun said: "After I waited for the rebellion, I didn't hear that the third brother was executed in Luoyang, maybe there is still a line left in Luoyang." ”

An Xianqi just shook his head, and several people were talking, the meaning was getting farther and farther away, and An Xianqi said: "It's better to find out about the fire in the west first." It can't be said that it's just a fire as the military has said, but it's not a big deal, so we have nothing to say. ”

Yang Guangyuan said: "How to explore?" ”

An Xianqi said: "I went to see Marshal Zhang with my eldest brother, and I said that I heard that the fire in the northwest was rising, and I was afraid that there would be a rebellion, so we asked Ying to leave the city." If Marshal Zhang allows, then the matter is not a big deal, if Marshal Zhang does not read or hesitates, it is a big deal. ”

Yang Guangyuan groaned: "Then brother, you go first, and I will come later." ”

An Xianqi agreed, and regardless of the fact that it was not yet dawn, he came to see Zhang Mai. At this time, Zhang Mai was sleeping soundly, and Ma Xiaochun blocked his drive and said, "Such a trivial matter, don't bother the marshal." Then Jian Yiyi went to ask the official in charge of Qinzhou's defense.

An Xianqi went to find An Shoushen - but An Shoushen had already gone to Weihe to patrol the defense, and the defense of Qinzhou was handed over to Ma Jirong, at this time Yang Guangyuan came, and when he heard about it, he left, An Xianqi stopped him, Yang Guangyuan sneered in a low voice: "What else is there to ask?" Something must have happened! With that, he walked away.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and An Xianqi said in his heart: "Do you really want to rebel again?" Although since the fall of the former Tang Dynasty, the people of the world have not taken loyalty and righteousness seriously, but I first rebelled against Li Congke, and then against Shi Jingjiao, and now if I rebel again, it will be worse than Lu Bu's three family slaves, what future is there in the future? ”

After thinking about it repeatedly, he finally bumped into Zhang Mai's door again, shouting to see Zhang Mai, Ma Xiaochun couldn't stop him, and urgently called the guards, Zhang Mai heard it in the house, woke up and shouted: "What's the matter?" ”

An Xianqi shouted: "Marshal! An Xianqi has something important to see! ”

There was silence in the room, and then I heard Zhang Mai say, "Come in." ”

An Xianqi broke into the house and asked directly: "Marshal, the fire in the western ranch was set by the Khitan?" Or did the Shu people put it? ”

Zhang Mai was slightly startled, and then smiled: "Your news is fast." ”

"It's not that I'm fast, it's that the fire is too big! In Qinzhou City, who hasn't seen it? I'm afraid that in the south of the Wei River, some people will see it! ”

Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Zhang Mai smiled faintly and said, "It's not the Khitan, it's the Shu army." Tonight they made a sneak attack to cross the river, and our army suffered a small defeat. Speaking of the cause and effect of the matter briefly, An Xianqi has been in the army for a long time, and when he heard it, he knew that the sneak attack on Duwei this night was the handiwork of a famous general, and he was surprised: "There are still such heroes among the Shu people?" Hey! Fortunately, it was just this little bit of people. ”

Zhang Mai said: "Although there are few people, they are elite. ”

An Xianqi said: "Isn't that the fruit left by Meng Zhixiang?" ”

"I don't know." Zhang Mai said: "You have been in the Central Plains for a long time, and you have guarded Fengxiang, and you have had a handover with the Shu army, do you know that among them, there is a general surnamed Liu, and he has a vanguard, is it surnamed Wang?" ”

An Xianqi said: "Liu? King...... Haven't heard of it. But no matter who it is, this military horse is a thorn in our back and an iron nail in our eyes! Don't get rid of it! From last night to now, why haven't you seen the Eagle Yang Army dispatched? Even the dragon inlaid iron armor army, as long as it is transferred all the way over, even if the 6,000 people are Khitan hinterlands, the heart will be flat. ”

Zhang Mai was silent for a moment, and did not answer, but said: "I have my own plans for this matter, you can go out." ”

An Xianqi's eyes flickered, and he said suddenly: "Marshal, in Qinzhou City, it won't be ...... Actually, there aren't many elite soldiers, right? ”

Zhang Mai was startled, raised his knife and shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about!" The knife has unknowingly been on An Xianqi's neck!

Seeing Zhang Mai's reaction, An Xianqi was not afraid, but smiled, and said, "Look at the marshal like this, but I guessed correctly!" Inside and outside Qinzhou, it is really empty! Otherwise, how can you allow those thousands of people to be presumptuous? The marshal will not lose his temper because he is broken by me. ”

Zhang Mai thought that he was so nervous, but he was really out of shape - Zhang Mai's heartstrings at this time had been trained to a great extent, but this matter was the biggest secret in his heart, and it was not only about this victory or defeat, but also about the century-old national fortune of China! In Qinzhou City, Murong Chunhua knew it clearly, and even Ma Jirong, An Shoushen and others didn't know everything, so they were suddenly poked in front of them, and they couldn't help but be at a loss.

This gaffe was only a matter of a moment, Zhang Mai quickly regained his composure, withdrew his horizontal knife, snorted, and said, "With me, Qinzhou will be fine." ”

An Xianqi said: "So who does the marshal plan to send to fight?" ”

Zhang Mai said: "There are only five or six thousand people, I have my own way to break him!" ”

An Xianqi said: "The marshal doesn't plan to destroy the enemy in person, right?" Although, with the divine power of the marshal, if he leads his personal guards into battle, he will naturally be able to break the enemy like a bamboo, but if he is attacked by only five or six thousand people, and the marshal is forced to face the battle in person, what will the military and people of Western Qin think? The person who attacked the sneak attack was willing to take such a risk, I'm afraid that's for it! ”

Zhang Mai was unconsciously frightened when he heard it! Secretly thought: "Huanma Heights, the good luck is uncertain, and Guo Wei's side is also undecided, at this time, if the hearts of the more than ten states in Qinxi are shaken, I am afraid that it will affect the morale of the north and east, in case the battle is lost, then ...... Even if Ah Yi's side wins, it will only be a situation of one win and one defeat! We are still passive! ”

I thought again: "I use the strongest force to deal with the Khitan and the Central Plains, and I treat the Shu people as nothing!" Unexpectedly, it was a miscalculation! There are capable people everywhere in the country, and the general who came to attack Shu is also a genius, he is afraid that he has seen through this, so he took the risk to cross Wei! ”

I was troubled in my heart, and because there was only one person in the house, I no longer hid it too much, and I couldn't help but worry about it.

An Xianqi said: "It seems that the marshal is really in trouble. ”

Zhang Mai said: "The mobilization of the army takes time, the Shu army lost the golden opportunity to cross the Wei River last night, I have strengthened the patrol of the Wei River, and it is impossible for the south to approach the army!" But there is no good way to get rid of the five or six thousand people on the west side. ”

An Xianqi sneered when he heard this: "Kanto Minister, Kansai General!" The marshal has more than ten people in Qinxi, but tens of thousands of new soldiers are not used inside and outside Qinzhou, but he has to worry about only five or six thousand people! This incident is not only funny, but also makes the newly returned soldiers feel cold! ”

Zhang Mai said lightly: "It's not that I don't use it, but I have used it, and I know that they are useless!" ”

An Xianqi said: "The marshal will have this opinion, is it because of the defeat of Yanzhou, Luguan, Qinggang Gorge, and Fangqu Town?" ”

When Zhang Mai heard this, he was slightly angry and said, "You're embarrassed to mention this to me!" Yanzhou, Luguan, Qinggang Gorge, and Fangqu Town are all over the place, but the people you recommended! I didn't expect them to repel the Khitan, but when I saw that you recommended them, I thought that I could at least delay it for a while, but as soon as I met the Khitan, I would be vulnerable! If they could have delayed for a few more hours, or even defended without a fight, so that the Khitan could not calmly go south like a tide, Xi Sheng would not have been so difficult now! Such soldiers and horses, let alone tens of thousands, even if there are hundreds of thousands, are useless! The thought of the uncertain fate of the brothers on the heights of the horse made me even more worried.

An Xianqi was scolded by Zhang Mai, and he felt ashamed, but he thought: "Retreat now, only one more offense!" Now that I have broken this big secret, if I don't win my trust, I will either be silenced or put under house arrest! When the husband is at a critical juncture of life and death, he would rather give up than retreat! ”

At that moment, he mustered up his courage and said: "The four northern soldiers will be cowardly, and it is true that An Xianqi is untouchableβ€”but in this matter, is the marshal completely irresponsible?" The four generals were the second group of people elected by the last general, not the best candidates, and the candidates recommended by the last general in the first round were all denied by the marshal - the last general said something heart-wrenching, the reason why the marshal did not choose the first round of generals at that time was not because these people were not brave in battle, but because these people were too rebellious and had just been attached, so they didn't dare to trust them, for fear that these people would rebel! It is better to choose a batch of better control zhΓ¬. Since this is the case, it is the marshal's responsibility to find the root of the defeat of the four passes! ”

Since Zhang Mai's expedition to the west, he has become more and more self-conscious, and as soon as his eyebrows moved, even the princes and generals would kneel down in fear, trembling and uneasy, and how many people around him dared to touch his scales? At this time, he was scolded by An Xianqi face to face, and couldn't help but sink his face, An Xianqi saw this and hurriedly said: "Although, the marshal also had a last resort at that time. Because my Qinxi Prefectures have just returned to obedience, it is natural for the marshal to keep the unruly people by his side to train them. At the beginning, but now after the marshal's grace, many of the generals who returned to Qin Xi have actually returned to their hearts, since this is the case, why not take advantage of the situation to use these people? ”

Zhang Mai said: "The words are a little reasonable, but now that the eyebrows are burned, how can I take the risk?" Inside and outside Qinzhou, it is not necessarily that everyone has no dissent! You want me to use Qinxi generals, but if these people defect to the battle, then my Tiance whole army will really die without a place to bury! ”

An Xianqi said: "It is precisely because of the fire that the eyebrows are burned, so it should be risked!" Marshal, when you were in Dengxia Valley, when you were in Talas, when you were in Shule, when you were in Qiuzi, and when you were in Shazhou, you also used the Hu people of the Western Regions who had not long been surrendered, right? Not to mention anything else, in the first battle of the breakthrough of Nashule, the marshal used General Xue Fu - those people were later the team of the Khan Blood Cavalry Regiment, right? ”

Zhang Mai shook his head and smiled: "Xue Fuzhi's loyalty and bravery, how can he be compared to the soldiers of Qinxi?" ”

An Xianqi said: "General Xue Fu is known as the descendant of the princess of the Tang Dynasty, but in fact, the bloodline is already shallow, and his appearance and speech are closer to Hu!" As for the soldiers and generals under his command, they are naturally all Tang Chinese now, but ask the marshal: When they were in Shule, were these people more like Hu people or more like Han people? ”

Zhang Mai groaned for a while. An Xianqi said again: "Marshal, when you were in the Western Regions, you still had such a heart for the Hu people, and now you have come to the vicinity of Chang'an, in this Zhou Qin, Han and Tang dynasties of Longxing, you are so suspicious of your compatriots and clansmen - Marshal, why are you so unconfident in the military and people of Qinxi?" Is it in your mind that you are no longer a Chinese? Already regard the Central Plains military and civilians as outsiders? If this is the case, then the suspicion of the Central Plains scholars that 'the old species of Anxi has long been Hu outside the territory' is not empty! ”

Zhang Mai was stunned by his words, and wanted to shout angrily at An Xianqi, but after thinking about it, An Xianqi's reproach was not unreasonable!

Since ancient times, the estrangement and integration of ethnic groups have never been unilateral, if the two sides are suspicious of each other, the same race will also split, if the two sides are close to each other, the different races can also be united! Zhang Mai secretly thought that he had indeed not been able to completely let go of the generals of Qinxi during this period of time, and always felt that they had just returned, and they must have different intentions, and he could not trust them, how could he let them trust him?

He thought to himself: "Not only more than ten states in Qinxi, but even Zhang Xichong, how can I not have a thought in my heart about each other?" Because I didn't treat Shuo Fang as my own in my heart, I had the idea of appeasing them, why should I appease them? I'm afraid that they will rebel! Why are you afraid of their rebellion? I still don't think of them as my own! Like Xue Fu and Yang Yi, even if I disrupt their military staff, how could I worry that they would complain about me because of this? In this way, not only the loss of the four passes, but also the loss of the Yellow River is also my responsibility! I failed to make good use of the power left by Zhang Xichong, so I let the Khitans cross the Yellow River lightly! I failed to make good use of the power of the states in western Qin, so not only could the border armies of these more than ten states not be my help, but I had to spend a lot of effort to guard against them! ”

Thinking of this, he saw that An Xianqi was still looking at him, threw away the knife suddenly, and said, "What the general blames!" Zhang Mai has been taught! He knelt down as he spoke.

Frightened, An Xianqi hurriedly knelt down and said, "The last general will not dare to be!" ”

Zhang Mai said: "I'm not kneeling to you, I'm kneeling to the Qindi generals I am ashamed of!" ”

The sincerity of what he said in these words, An Xianqi was actually out of the way just now, but he never expected Zhang Mai to be so solemnly repentant, thinking: "No wonder he can sweep thousands of miles!" As soon as I realized that I had been, I would kneel down to me, a general, such a courageous person, what Li Congke and Shi Jingjiao could not have! ”

A sense of acquaintance swelled up, and he didn't feel that Xiong's mouth was hot, and he paused: "The marshal is serious." In fact, when we just surrendered, we people were not completely distracted, and the marshal's disposition was not wrong. It's just that after these days of burning the marshal's grace, the military and people of Qindi have indeed returned to their hearts! Marshal Wanwang do not doubt it! Although there is a crisis this time, it is just because of this crisis that I can show my skills and make Qin Xi's male heroes useful! ”

Zhang Mai said: "Is General An willing to fight for Datang and break the enemy for my Datang?" ”

An Xianqi said: "If the marshal can be trusted, the sword mountain and the sea of fire, will not give up!" ”

Zhang Mai was overjoyed, pulled An Xianqi to get up and said: "I sent troops this time in order to drive away Hu Lu and fix the country!" You're right, this is the land of Longxing of the four dynasties of Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang, I believe that the men of Qin will definitely have a passionate heart, and they will definitely be able to break the enemy with me! ”

――――――――――

Note: Some book friends said that they did not find Yizhou, I used the Tang part of Tan Qixiang's atlas after the Five Dynasties, referring to the Later Jin Dynasty, this map is quite different from the Five Dynasties "Liang Jin Qi Lu and Other Towns", which contains Yizhou.

Since ancient times, the policy of people-ethnic differences has been mostly poison, and the poison of the "people-ethnicity-preferential treatment" policy may not be weaker than that of "people-ethnicity-oppression"! Since I am from the outside, then the man is also from the outside, and those who hate meat-eating disorders do not know this!
