Chapter 73 Withdrawal from the Army without a Cause

Day after year in May.

Nanyang Jingxiang is already green, and the Central Plains is busy with farming.

Zhu Wen sent a letter to Li Keyong, asking his old opponent to put Zhang Quanyi back, and the conditions were opened casually.

Li Keyong is not stupid, can he promise to let the tiger return to the mountain? directly put Zhang Quanyi under house arrest and did not kill him.

At this time, the Jin army had already deployed Wei Bo.

You must know that Wei Bo Jie Du made Luo Shaowei is the tooth army support, and there was such a slang phrase at that time "Chang'an Son of Heaven, Wei Bo Ya Soldier", which means that Wei Bo Ya soldier can abolish the Jie Du envoy at any time.

The reason why Li Keyong used Wei Bo was also because Wei Boya made Li Gong into chaos, Li Keyong had long had the ambition to capture Wei Bo, but he never succeeded, and this is an opportunity.

Seeing this, Luo Shaowei hurriedly asked Zhu Wen for rescue, he couldn't get rid of these big soldiers.

Heyang in the river was occupied by Li Keyong, and now he is advancing eastward along the river, and Zhu Wen's troops are stretched.

The 20,000 troops stationed on the other side of Heyang did not dare to move, otherwise Luoyang would be in danger.

Yang Shihou confronted Wang Maozhang in Pengcheng and did not dare to move.

Now that Yingzhou has been lost, the whole situation is extremely unfavorable.

After the Battle of Yuncheng, Liu Yan's army retreated to Yanzhou, which is the best news.

As for hitting Nanyang?

originally thought that Nanyang was a piece of meat, but who knew that it was a hard bone.

Zhu Wen looked at the map in the study, frowning and thinking.

It seems that Wei Bo must be saved, otherwise Hebei will be lost.

He wondered who would be the right one to go to Weber.

Li Keyong is his biggest enemy, and he must use elite soldiers to strengthen the general, otherwise once he turns over, he will not have a good life.

When I was worried, a military report suddenly came.

Zhu Wen opened the military newspaper, but it was an urgent report from Yang Shihou.

said that the sudden withdrawal of the Huainan army was inexplicable, and I was afraid that it would be deceitful.

Zhu Wen was also stunned.

Wang Maozhang has a good momentum, why did he withdraw his troops?

As soon as he withdrew his troops, Yingzhou, which had already been occupied, was exposed. What's going on?

Anyway, this can be regarded as beating Wang Maozhang out in disguise.

Wang Maozhang retreated, and Yang Shihou took over, but the city he took over had been burned to the ground, and the people were all moved, and Yang Shihou gritted his teeth angrily.

Fight all the way to Yingzhou.

As soon as Liu Cun of Yingzhou made a little contact with him, he directly withdrew his troops and returned to Huainan.

Hiss~

What do they mean?

Although he couldn't think through it, he didn't delay Yang Shihou to regain the lost ground.

Looking at the turbulent Huai River, Yang Shihou could only look at the water and sigh. Who made himself a landlubber?

In August, Zhu Wen ordered Yang Shihou to return and go directly to Weibo to resist Li Keyong's army.

Huainan Guangling Wu Wangfu.

Wu Wang Yang Xingmi was lying on the couch, his face sallow.

Yuan Xi and Lang Zhong muttered for a while.

He turned to the couch and asked in a low voice, "My lord, what else do you command?" ”

"Is Wang Maozhang back?"

"It's back."

"Let him come to me."

"Yes."

Wang Maozhang came back inexplicably.

He is confronting Yang Shihou, and he will not suffer a loss. Who knew that suddenly an order made him withdraw to Huainan.

Although he had doubts, he still carried out the order.

It's just that he looked at the complete Fu Licheng of the city, and didn't want to leave it to Yang Shihou, so he asked the people to move to Huainan, promised to give them land in Huainan, and then set fire to the city, and then retreated.

The army crossed the river and returned to Huainan, where he was ordered to enter Guangling immediately, and was summoned by the king of Wu.

So he took his own troops and hurried to Jiangning.

Take a boat in Jiangning and walk the Yangtze River to Guangling.

On July 15, Wang Maozhang and others were in the front hall of King Wu's mansion.

After waiting for nearly two hours, King Wu's advisor Yuan Xi came out.

"General Wang, summoned by the lord."

"Okay."

Wang Maozhang tidied up his robe, and then followed Yuan Xian in.

Turn left and right, and you will come to a garden.

Flowers bloom around a large house.

The guard at the door saw that it was an acquaintance, and simply checked his belongings and let him go.

"My lord, General Wang is here."

"My lord, Wang Maozhang is here."

"Uh, Kyungin is back?"

"Lord, I'm back."

Wang Maozhang saw that King Wu was lying on the couch, and the maid could sit up with his help, and then he saw that his face was sallow and panting, and he chuckled in his heart.

"Jingren, I'm sick~~~"

Wu Wang Yang Xingmi said weakly.

"Lord, what's wrong with you?!"

Seeing that Yang Xingmi was so weak, Wang Maozhang's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and his voice was eager.

He and Yang Xingmi started an incident in Huainan together, and assisted Yang Xingmi all the way to become the king of Wu and ruled the entire Huainan.

It was the time when he was in high spirits, but King Wu was already sick and couldn't afford it, and when he thought of the sad place, Wang Maozhang had tears in his eyes.

Seeing Wang Maozhang like this, Yang Xingmi's heart was sour.

He knows his own affairs, he has a hunch that his limit is approaching, and I am afraid that time is running out.

Thinking of this, Yang Xingmi beckoned to Wang Maozhang, let him come closer, and said slowly: "Jingren, you and I are brothers, starting from Weimo together, and fighting the world together." Now I'm afraid I can't. ”

"Lord ~~~~"

When Wang Maozhang saw Yang Xingmi say this, he knelt down in front of the couch with a plop.

"Lord, you are in good health, we can still ride horses and fight together!"

"Jingren, Fengtian is not like a holy monarch, and I still need your assistance."

Yang Xingmi is really dissatisfied with his eldest son, but whenever there is a choice, he will never let this son succeed to the throne, but now Yang Xingmi is called every day should not be, and the earth is not spiritual!

The other sons are still young and cannot take on this important task, only the eldest son Yang Wu is nineteen this year and can still take over.

The reason why he summoned Wang Maozhang back was that he was afraid that he, a good brother who fought the world together, would not be convinced, so he asked him in person to make himself feel at ease.

As the eldest son of Yang Xingmi, Yang Wu has always had a bad reputation, and in today's words, he is a proper rich second generation and the second generation of officials.

This son is arrogant and arrogant, does not understand human feelings, never knows respect for the civil and military officials under his father, and calls and drinks, and the government Chinese military is extremely contemptuous of this son.

Yang Xingmi also knows that the eldest son is difficult to convince the public, but if he doesn't let him take over, who will take over?

What he can't worry about the most is his old brother.

You must know that Wang Maozhang is a famous Wang Iron Spear, a tiger and tiger who dances with a big gun, where is his opponent for ordinary people? !

If you don't obey this old brother, you can't take this position.

"Jingren, you go and pick up the Xuanzhou Observation Envoy from Fengtian and let him come back."

"Yes, Mao Zhang will not let the lord down."

Wang Maozhang knew that King Wu was arranging the aftermath, and he had to carry it out, otherwise what awaited him would be death.

He came out with Yuan Xian, went through the relevant procedures, and hurried to Xuanzhou with the confessor.

To go to Xuanzhou, you have to go up the Yangtze River, take the Wuhu water, enter the south of Danyang Lake, and arrive at Xuancheng, which has entered September at this time.

The Xuanzhou Observer was Yang Xingmi's eldest son, nineteen-year-old Yang Wu Yang Fengtian.

Originally, Yang Wu ate and drank spicy food in Guangling, and when he had nothing to do, he went out to tease cats and dogs, flirted with beautiful women, and lived a comfortable life.

Who knows, last year, my father had to let him be an observer of Xuanzhou.

You say that you are a young master, where will you deal with these government affairs? Drinking flower wine and laughing with women is your specialty!

But my father's fate is hard to disobey.

Yang Wu thought about it, since he can't escape, let's go, although he left the fox friends in Guangling, he is also free in Xuanzhou, and he is free without his father in front of him, and he can do whatever he wants.

As soon as he arrived in Xuanzhou, he promoted several of his henchmen, such as the current Xuanzhou commanders Zhu Siqing (qíng), Fan Sicong, and Chen Fan, and let them control their own pro-army.

Today, Yang Wu had nothing to do, so he invited the three of them to have a banquet in the mansion, and the dancing girls danced, and the four of them drank happily in the lobby.

Suddenly, a pro-army came to report, and some people asked to see him.

Yang Wu was drunk, where did he pay attention to any confessor, and only cared about drinking and having fun with his three henchmen.

Wang Maozhang, who was outside the door, was furious and broke in with the confessor.

The pro-soldiers tried their best to block it, but where was Wang Maozhang's opponent.

Seeing the commotion outside the hall, Yang Wu was suddenly disappointed.

"Who's making a fuss?!"

Yang Wuteng stood up, and Zhu Siqing, Fan Sicong, and Chen Fan also stood up and glared angrily.

At this time, a person broke into the lobby, eight feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist. Of course this person Yang Wu knows, it is Wang Maozhang, the left tooth general under his father and the training envoy of Runzhou.

"The eldest prince, the lord is sick, let you go back immediately."

"What?"

Yang Wu is a bastard again, and when he heard that his father was sick, his heart was also tight.

He waved his hand at his own soldiers, letting the confessors outside the door in.

The messenger read out the order, and Yang Wu knew that Wang Maozhang was here to take over.

Although this is his father's order, he is angry with Wang Maozhang, who disturbs his drinking, and naturally has nothing good to say.

"So you're here to take over!"

Yang Wu held his head high, looking arrogant.

When Wang Maozhang saw this, he was angry.

This son has not yet become a master, so it is really unreasonable to treat others like this.

Although he handed over the formalities with Wang Maozhang, he still didn't leave.

It's that everyone has so many good friends. There are still gentlemen like Yang Wu, such as Huainan Jiedu envoy Xu Wen and Wang Lingmou, they have always been looking forward to the eldest prince in their hearts, although they are also a little dissatisfied with the eldest prince, but the inheritance of the concubine is a common thing, and they must support it.

They once agreed with Yang Wu, "The king is sick, and the king is out, this is a traitor." He has a call every day, and I should not answer it. ”

It turned out that he had already made an agreement with Xu Wen and Wang Lingmou, and if he didn't see our order, don't come back.

After waiting for a few days, sure enough, someone came to see him with the covenant warrant, and Yang Wu knew that this couldn't be wrong.

Only then did he pack his bags, in the past two years, he had been in Xuanzhou for a long time, he needed a chariot, and he had to ask Wang Maozhang for pro-army.

It stands to reason that the pro-army troops should follow the master's actions, and Wang Maozhang should not stop them, but Yang Wu wanted to take the three commanders away, which made him very annoyed.

You have taken it all away, what can I do as an observer of Xuanzhou?

Wang Maozhang was also angry in his heart, and he didn't speak politely, and scolded Yang Wu, don't you say it's angry? !

A veteran like him, if he doesn't agree with the young master, he will inevitably show it.

Especially a military general like Wang Maozhang, he doesn't pay much attention to his words and deeds.

Yang Wu was so angry that he hated Wang Maozhang in his heart.

Think about it, what good end can you have if you are hated by the future young master?!
