The city of Mayi was guarded by Du Yan, the governor of Shuozhou, although there were 10,000 soldiers and horses, but for the 200,000 troops outside the city, there was really a disparity in strength.

When Li Jing ordered the 15,000 light cavalry of the hussar army of his headquarters to mount the horse, the soldiers came to the city, showed off their might, and then shot an arrow into a letter in Yi Feng's original words, either open the city and let them pass, or be really threatened by them to break through the pass, Du Yan had no choice at all. Shou, how to keep, the opposite is now the crown prince, how can he disobey? What's more, not to mention the name of this prince, there are still 200,000 real troops under the city. After weighing, Du Yan simply ordered the city gate to be opened, and Li Jing led the hussars to enter the city first, and then directly disarmed Du Yan's 10,000 defenders. Du Yan did not resist, he abandoned his weapons very honestly, gave up the important town of Mayi City outside Yanmen Pass, and then took the 10,000 disarmed troops to report to the logistics camp of the Huaihuang Army, and temporarily changed to a logistics baggage force.

After taking Ma Yi bloodlessly, Yi Feng led his army to continue southward until Yanmen was closed.

On the way to the march, Liu Wenjing came to find Yi Feng and said to him: "We have now forcibly broken through the pass, and we have disarmed Du Yan's weapons of 10,000 soldiers and horses, which can already be regarded as a hostile battle by Taiyuan, Your Highness is not worried that Taiyuan will break with us and send troops to attack?" If we fight and kill Taiyuan at this time, I am afraid that we will only make wedding clothes for others in the end! Your Highness, is it because of the edict of King Jin?"

Yi Feng was not too worried about Liu Wenjing's worries, although his actions in Ma Yi were a little tough, but it was not enough for Taiyuan to declare war on him. Yang Guang's edict was indeed a bit ruthless, but it was definitely not him who was most alarmed, but Yang Xiu and Yang Yong. Especially Yang Yong. Originally, if Yi Feng stood on his side, then their strength was the strongest combination, the best in the world, but if Yi Feng fell to either Yang Guang or Yang Xiu, it would be a huge blow to Yang Yong. Now Yi Feng is just breaking into a horse. Taiyuan must prefer to make a big thing a small thing, unless Yi Feng really plans to fight all the way to Taiyuan.

However, Yi Feng now neither intends to fall to Yang Guang, nor does he intend to immediately turn his face with Yang Yong and tear each other apart, he will not do that kind of thing that has no benefit. In his heart. Now is not the time to immediately fight with Yang Yong.

Seeing that Yi Feng didn't speak, Liu Wenjing was a little anxious, and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, the praying mantis catches cicadas." Yellow finches are behind, don't be impulsive, and finally make wedding clothes for others. ”

Yi Feng smiled and waved his hand, "Don't worry, I know very well in my heart, every move I make is thoughtful and meaningful." After that, he didn't explain more. Let Liu Wenjing think hard there.

For a while, he couldn't guess what Yi Feng was thinking and what plans he was making. I could only look at the background where Yi Feng was far away and sighed, "I hope it's not a fire to take millet from the fire." The allusion of taking corn from the fire is still what Yi Feng once told you, about a cunning monkey who put the corn in the fire to cook, and then tricked the cat to take it out for him, and the cat burned all the hair on his feet, but in the end he didn't eat the corn. Be a cat's paw. It's simply the behavior of being used to do risky things, paying the price but not getting the benefits. He is really worried that His Highness will be used by Yang Guang or Yang Yong now.

Yi Feng's soldiers and horses have not yet arrived at the Yanmen Pass. Taiyuan City has already received the news that Yang Lin broke through the pass and captured Mayi.

When the news reached Taiyuan, the newly enthroned emperor Yang Yong was immediately taken aback. Yuan Yan had just returned from Mayi. The envoys of Yang Guang and Yang Xiu also arrived in Yang Lin's army, and Yang Xiu canonized Yang Lin as Hebei Daxingtai, and Yang Guang even canonized Yang Lin as the crown prince. These two pieces of news are extremely serious, especially when Yang Guang actually canonized Yang Lin as the crown prince, Yang Yong was even more anxious, and hurriedly summoned Gao Gong and other hundred officials into the Jinyang Palace to discuss. Before discussing with the hundred officials who were sealed by Jinyang, Yang Yong and Gao Gong discussed it alone, and had no choice but to tell the secret that Yang Lin was actually the son conceived by Yang Guang before the Yuan family's marriage. Gao Gong was shocked when he first heard this secret, he had worked hard for Yang Yong for so many years, but Yang Yong had been hiding such an important secret from him.

Gao Gong was surprised, but also felt a deep disappointment in his heart. This reminded him of the idea in his heart some time ago, when he was already planning to take Yang Yong as a vote and fall to Yang Lin. It's just that Yang Xiu's Turkic murder usurped the throne, so that the plan had to be temporarily terminated. In Taiyuan City, Gao Gong and He Ruobi and others supported Yang Yong and the emperor's throne in the Jinyang Palace, originally thinking that the emperor's death was not necessarily all bad, but who knew that such a shocking secret had been revealed by the innate now.

An important force on Yang Yong's side, the newly canonized crown prince Yang Lin, is actually Yang Guang's biological son, and it turned out to be the son conceived by Yang Guang and Yang Yong's wife before marriage, born after marriage, is there more unbelievable news than this?

Two emperors canonized the same person as the crown prince, which is really unprecedented and unprecedented, and now he finally understands why.

Gao Gong stroked his forehead, unable to say a word.

Yang Lin is not a simple character, if he is only Yang Yong's eldest son, then he can be abolished, but Yang Lin controls the thirty-two states of Youzhou, and now he has to add the two states of Shuowei outside Yanmen Pass, and the entire Daibei and the northern part of Taihang Mountain are controlled by Yang Lin. In particular, Yang Lin still has 300,000 troops in his hands, and there are 200,000 outside Yanmen Pass.

Before, I felt that the Taiyuan Imperial Court had a good future, and if he waved his troops south, he would be able to quell the civil strife immediately. But now that I look at it, this is not the case at all, and the Taiyuan Imperial Court immediately became quite dangerous. Although there are two important passes in the northwest of Taiyuan, Yanmen and Loufu are guarded. But Yi Feng is still in control of Ulzhou, he can attack from Ulzhou to Xin Dai and approach Taiyuan. The most troublesome thing is that Yi Feng also controls Hengzhou to the east of Taiyuan, which is only separated from Taiyuan by a Taihang, but there is also a Jingcheng connection. Although Jing Cheng is related to the pass, but in terms of the solidity of defense, it is definitely not as good as Yanmen and Lou Fu, and even not as good as Thai Opera and Bottle Erguan, and even the Tianmen in the north of Taiyuan can not be compared for three days. As the center of the north, Taiyuan is still the most important front line of the Great Wall in Mayi, Yanmen and Loufu, and then the second line of defense of Taiyuan Sanguan, and then the last defense of Taiyuan Jiancheng Fortress. But once Hebei is under Yang Lin's control, he doesn't have to go to the Yanmen Tower to bother these Xiongguan passes, and he can kill Taiyuan City in one fell swoop directly from the side and back through Jingcheng.

"Xiangguo, what should I do now?" Yang Yong looked flustered, and when he heard Yang Lin break through, the first thing he thought of was that Yang Lin was finally going to turn against him, Yang Lin had already defected to his biological son, a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be raised.

Gao Gong took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"Your Majesty, don't panic, the old minister thought about it, Yang Lin's request to enter the customs is not an excessive request, he is the crown prince canonized by His Majesty."

"But Yang Guang also canonized him as the crown prince, and he is also Yang Guang's biological son." Yang Yong shouted.

"The key now is to appease Yang Lin, and now I don't ask him to help us crusade against Yang Guang and Yang Xiu, but I just ask him to stop breaking through Yanmen Pass and stationing soldiers and horses outside Yanmen Pass, which is already very good."

Yang Yong kept pacing back and forth, turning in circles, "Since Yang Lin has already forcibly seized Mayi, and also confiscated Du Yanjun's weapons and captured them, aren't you still turning your face, is he willing to stop at the Yanmen Pass?" ”

"Yanmen Pass is not so easy to capture, there is Marshal Han personally guarding it, even if Yang Lin has 200,000 soldiers and horses, if you want to take this pass forcibly, don't think about it in March or May." Gao Gong said a little impatiently, "Your Majesty has to send someone to appease Yang Lin immediately, it is best to downplay the matter of Ma Yi, and turn the big thing into a small matter and pass it like this, we must not provoke incidents and intensify the contradictions." However, the gate of Yanmen must be guarded, it is best to be loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and there can be no tension on the surface, but in private, we must strengthen the vigilance, and we must not let Yang Lin's soldiers and horses enter the customs again. I have to find a way to recruit Yang Lin to Taiyuan. ”

Yang Yong could only nod, and the later meeting could not discuss any results at all. In the end, it was decided that Gao Gong would personally go to Yanmen Pass to reward Yang Lin's soldiers and horses, and then give Yang Lin's subordinates more officials and knights, reward money and grain, and then lead Yang Lin into the court. At the meeting, Yang Yong was already a little ownerless, and the meetings were basically presided over by Gao Gong alone. After everyone left, he felt more and more that a wave of fear was coming to him, and in front of the courtiers, he could still try to maintain some calm, but at this time alone, he was really afraid, and he was more aware of the severity of the situation.

He is the emperor in Taiyuan, Taiyuan and nearby Yanmen and other towns have 250,000 soldiers and horses, but Yang Lin outside Yanmen Pass has 200,000 soldiers, not to mention the northeast across the Xin Dynasty is Yi Feng control zhì Ulzhou, the east is only separated by a Taihang Mountain, separated by a well, is Yi Feng's Hengzhou Zhending. He felt like he was walking on the edge of a cliff, and if he was not careful, he would fall into the abyss. And the relationship between Yang Lin and him was just a joke with each other, but now that his father is dead, and Yi Feng has an elite soldier in his hand, will he still care about that secret?

The joy and excitement of becoming an emperor has disappeared in the blink of an eye.

I knew that now, I really shouldn't have kept this evil seed in the first place. At the beginning, I thought that I could use this evil seed to regain some impression in front of the emperor, but who knows, now this evil son has become his biggest threat.

Taiyuan Xicheng, in a mansion that had just been given to Gao Gong by Yang Yong, Gao Gong was also pacing in circles in the house, holding a letter in his hand and staring at it. The letter that suddenly appeared on his desk made him uneasy, and this mysterious letter was actually a handwritten letter from Yang Lin to him. As soon as he thought that Yang Lin could unknowingly put the letter on the table in his study, Gao Gong felt a chill in his back, what if Yang Lin sent not a letter, but a glass of poisoned wine, or a dark arrow?

However, when he moved his gaze back to the letter, his breathing became rapid again, and Yang Lin's mention on the letter was very tempting! (To be continued) R466
