Chapter 109: Two Wei stand side by side

Xiao Gaowang's inner small theater will not be mentioned for the time being.

When he pacified Xuzhou, Gao Huan was attacked and harassed by Yin Li and Liu Lisheng of Sudouling because of the grain route, and Yuwentai strictly guarded the pass, so he decided not to plot against Guanxi for the time being.

The army traveled a lot, and it was impossible to run in vain, so he set his sights on the elbow and armpit disasters of the Hexi thieves Douling Yin Li and Liu Lisheng.

The terrain of Liu Lisheng's department is complex and difficult to conquer, otherwise Er Zhurong would not let him be his neighbor.

Fei Yetou, who had taken refuge in He Bayue before, Yin Li, a thief in Hexi, was in Wuyuan Hexi, and he did not have Liu Lisheng's geographical advantage, and he also became Gao Huan's target.

Gao Huan made a big fanfare, led the foot soldiers back to Jinyang, arrived in Jinyang but did not enter the city, and went straight north.

However, his whereabouts were discovered by Yin Li of Sudouling, and the actions of the 200,000 army could not be hidden.

Yin Li of Sudouling thought that he had seen through Gao Huan's scheme, summoned the young and strong, and stationed on the west bank of the Yellow River.

Soon, Gao Huan really led the army to look at him across the river.

But then came the news that Dou Tai led the elite cavalry to make a detour to raid the Sudouling tribe.

It turned out that the reason why Gao Huan was making such a big fanfare was to attract attention and cover the whereabouts of Dou Tai, who had left the team early.

After the young and strong people of the Yin Li clan of Sudouling left the tribe, Dou Tai broke through the head of Fei Ye's Sudouling Department in one fell swoop, captured countless women and children, and immediately escorted the women and children to the south after succeeding, as if they were going to cross the Yellow River through Pujin.

The thieves in Hexi saw that their families were involved in the hands of the enemy, and the people's hearts were in turmoil, and they asked for help one after another.

Gao Huan took the opportunity to cross the river and followed.

Dou Tai left a part of his men to escort the prisoners, continued to go south, and led his own army to turn around and attack Gao Huan in the north and south.

Yin Li of Sudouling was defeated and captured by Gao Huansheng.

Although Xiao Gao Wang is radiant, He Liuhun is not a waste dim sum.

"Yin Li, when you refused Lone's appeasement, did you ever think about today's thing!"

Gao Huan looked at Yin Li, who had become a prisoner, and said proudly.

It turned out that after Zhai Song sent an envoy to Guanxi, Gao Huan planned to lead his troops to attack Chang'an while He Bayue and Hou Mo Chen Yue were attacking each other.

In order to ensure the smooth flow of the grain route, he once sent an envoy to try to recruit Yin Li of Sudouling, but was refused.

Gao Huan had no choice but to give up the plan to attack Chang'an, until He Bayue died unexpectedly, Guanxi was left without an owner, and fell into a power vacuum, so he reorganized the army and set off, risking the disturbance of the grain route, and prepared to take over Guanxi.

Su Douling Yin Li did not shout that he wanted to kill and listen to the respect, his attitude was a little different from when he refused Gao Huan's solicitation before.

"Vulgar people don't know the face of heaven, Yin Li is willing to respect the king as a khan, and serve with his heart from now on."

Looking at the humble appearance of Yin Li of Sudouling, Gao Huan was infinitely satisfied.

Perhaps he didn't know what kind of opportunity he had missed, and Gao Huan, who didn't take Yuwentai in his eyes, forgave Yin Li of Sudouling and moved his subordinates to Wuyuan Hedong to settle down.

Liu Lisheng saw that the northern neighbor of Sudouling was moved, and hurriedly sent an envoy to make friends with Gao Huan.

Gao Huan cordially and warmly received the envoy, and the two families have been in touch ever since.

And the land of Kansai is also turbulent.

After Yuwentai succeeded as the lord of Kansai, he issued documents to various states, except for Lingzhou Cao Ni, Longshan Hou Mo Chen Yue, who had always disobeyed orders, and Weizhou Ke Zhu Hunyuan, who was attached to Hou Mo Chen Yue, someone actually jumped out.

Yuanzhou Assassin Shi Gui was deeply trusted by He Bayue, and the change of the river meander, He Batyue was killed by Hou Mo Chen Yue, and Shi Gui actually fell to Hou Mo Chen Yue, which made He Batyue's old department hate to eat his flesh.

Yuwentai ordered the Anbei general Hou Mo Chen Chong to lead a thousand light cavalry to attack Yuanzhou, and Hou Mo Chen Yue also sent his generals Wang Bohe and Cheng Ci'an to lead 2,000 troops to help.

When Hou Mo Chen Chong arrived in Yuanzhou, it was already dark, he ambushed the cavalry nearby, and he led more than ten horsemen to seize the city gate while Shi Gui was defenseless.

Li Xian, a native of Longxi, and his younger brothers Li Yuan and Li Mu as internal responses, created a riot in the city, and when the chaos occurred, a thousand light horsemen outside the city swarmed in, captured Shi Gui, Wang Bohe, and Cheng Ci'an, and sent them to Yuwentai's army.

Yu Wentai heard that Hou Mo Chen Chong was appointed to Yuanzhou, and at the same time moved to Yuanzhou, preparing to raise troops to conquer Hou Mo Chen Yue.

Before that, I would like to have a written exchange with Hou Mo Chen Yue:

'He Bagong has made great contributions to the imperial court. The name of the gentleman is thin, and He Ba recommends the king as the right line of Long. and the autocratic power of the Gao clan, Jun and Hebagong received secret decrees together, and repeatedly formed alliances; And the monarch is attached to the country thief, the temple is in danger, the blood has not dried up, and the dagger has been sent. Today, I and the king are edicted to return to the que, today to advance and retreat, only the king is to see: if the king goes down to Longdongmai, I also return from the north road; If the first rat is at both ends, I will see you soon! ’

Hou Mo Chen Yue, who returned to the nest of Qinzhou in Longshan, received a letter from Yu Wentai and was panicking, and Li Bi, the assassin of Southern Qinzhou, went north to ask to see Hou Mo Chen Yue.

Li Bi is different from He Bayue, Yu Wentai, Hou Mo Chen Yue and others, holding the land of a state, but he is not Wuchuan Xianbei.

He was a native of Xiangping, Liaodong (Liaoyang, Liaoning), and entered the customs with him as a subordinate general of Erzhu Tianguang.

After Erzhu Tianguang went east, Li Bi returned to Hou Mo Chenyue, served as the governor of the capital, and granted the Southern Qin Prefecture Assassin History.

Seeing the situation at this point, Li Bi also thought carefully:

'Hou Mo Chen Yue assassinated He Bayue, which was a big disappointment, and Yu Wentai led the mourning soldiers to come, and his momentum was flourishing.

'I am not a descendant of Wuchuan, I have successively subordinated to Erzhu Tianguang and Hou Mo Chen Yue, and my wife is Hou Mo Chen Yue's aunt, this resume, when Hou Mo Chen Yue is defeated, it is difficult to ensure that it will not be liquidated. ’

After thinking about it, Li Bi did not choose to fight against Hou Mo Chen Yue, he decided to sell Hou Mo Chen Yue to Yu Wentai as his own promotion.

After walking into the Qinzhou Thorn History Mansion and meeting Hou Mo Chen Yue, Li Bi persuaded and said:

"He Batyue is not guilty, but Hou Mo Chen Gong killed him, and did not appease the people who accepted him, and now they welcome Yuwentai as the master, threatening to avenge He Batyue, its power is so strong, invincible, we should disband the people to apologize to them! Otherwise, woe will befall you. ”

Hou Mo Chen Yue didn't listen, he was not a fool, last time Zhao Gui begged for He Bayue's body, and his words were sincere.

In order to ease the relationship with Hebayue's old department, he really sent the body back, and the result? Zhao Gui first advocated the establishment of Yuwentai.

Hou Mo Chen Yue understood that he and He Bayue's old department already had an endless relationship, and at this time, disbanding the troops and surrendering to them was not to be a fish on the chopping block and to be slaughtered.

But Hou Mo Chen Yue did not blame Li Bi, he also had the hope of reconciling with He Bayue's old department, not to mention Li Bi, he had never participated in it, and he didn't know what was sinister.

Hou Mo Chen Yue was determined to resist stubbornly, and Yuwentai was also ready to go on the expedition, he appointed Yuwendao, the son of his deceased brother, as the governor of Yuanzhou, and he led the army to Longshan.

Along the way, Yuwentai strictly disciplined the army, successfully harvested the hearts of the people in Longdi, and the army came out of the wooden narrow pass, marching rapidly, which was much more than Hou Mo Chen Yue expected.

In a panic, Hou Mo Chen Yue left 10,000 troops in Shuiluo County (Zhuanglang, Gansu), and he led the army to retreat to Luoyang (Qin'an, Gansu).

What I didn't expect was that as soon as Hou Mo Chen Yue left with his front foot, the Shuiluo defenders surrendered to Yuwentai with their back foot.

Yuwentai led hundreds of light horsemen to kill Luoyang, and Hou Chen Yue abandoned the city again, retreated to Qinzhou Prefecture to govern Shangqi (Qingshui, Gansu), and sent a letter to recruit Li Bi to help.

In the process of waiting for Li Bi, Hou Mo Chen Yue gave up the city again and went south to defend the mountains.

Li Bi rushed to Hou Mo Chen Yue's army, and after the feast, while he was asleep, he went out of the account and said to his subordinates:

"Hou Mo Chen Gong wants to go back to Shangqi, why don't you dress up and go with me."

It was so easy to occupy Shangtai City, Li Bi occupied Shangtai and surrendered to Yuwentai, and Yuwentai appointed Li Bi as the assassin of Qinzhou.

Hou Mo Chen Yue heard that Li Bi had surrendered to Yuwentai, and hurriedly led his army to fight, but his troops were defeated without a fight.

Come to think of it, at the beginning, He Bayue ordered Yuwentai to divide Hou Mo Chen Yue's subordinates and succeeded in one fell swoop, which was also the reason why Hou Mo Chen Yue did not dare to fight with Yuwentai.

Hou Mo Chen Yue panicked, led the family roll and the seven or eight people who conspired to kill He Batyue to flee together, and on the way to Lingzhou to assassinate Shi Cao Ni, he was caught up by He Batying, the governor of Yuanzhou, and hanged himself in the wild.

With tens of thousands of horses in hand, but he didn't fight a battle, and his family died, it is no wonder that he is despised.

Although Hou Mo Chen Yue is dead, there are still remnants of the party.

Yuwentai sent the governor Liu Liang to conquer Sun Ding'er, the assassin of Fengzhou, and Sun Ding'er was beheaded in Ding'an County (Ning County, Gansu), the seat of Fengzhou.

Demon Museum

Yang Shaoxian, a native of Di, was first proclaimed king in Wuxing, and there was civil unrest in Liangzhou, and Di, Qiang, and Tuyuhun invaded the border.

Yuwentai ordered Li Bi to change the town of Yuanzhou, Ba also evil oyster town in South Qinzhou, Weizhou Assassin Shi Ke Zhu Hunyuan continued to stay in Weizhou, Zhao Gui, who had the initiative to do Qinzhou affairs, and levied rice grain from the four prefectures of Feng, Jing, East Qin, and Qi to support the army.

Yang Shaoxian was afraid, attached himself to Yuwentai, and sent his wife and children as hostages.

Gao Huan heard that Yuwentai pacified Guanlong, and sent Zhang Huayuan, a freelancer who served as a representative of the county, and Wang Yuanji of Tai'an to win over Yuwentai.

Yuwentai did not accept the woo, but wanted to leave Zhang Huayuan behind, just as he met Gao Huan at the beginning, and Gao Huan planned to keep him in Jinyang.

"If you stay, you will be rich with me, or you will die here."

Yu Wentai snorted coldly.

Zhang Huayuan did not succumb to Yuwentai's threat, he was not afraid to say:

"If Yuwen Gong wants to threaten the envoy with life and death, this is not what I, Zhang Huayuan, are afraid of."

Perhaps thinking of what he looked like when he rejected Gao Huan in Jinyang, Yuwentai finally let them go and let Zhang Huayuan and Yuan Ji go back to their lives.

As soon as Yuan Ji returned to Jinyang, he immediately persuaded Gao Huan to say:

"King, Yuwentai is a hero, you should take advantage of his new establishment and send troops to destroy him."

Gao Huan didn't care, he smiled at Yuan Ji and said:

"Can't you see the fate of He Bayue and Hou Mo Chen Yue! I just need to use a trick to capture Yuwentai, it's easy. ”

easily defeated the Erzhu clan and planned to kill He Bayue, Gao Huan completely floated.

And the newly rising Yuwentai is actively planning big things.

He Bayue was killed by Hou Mo Chen Yue at the instigation of Gao Huan, and the Kansai and Kanto regions had essentially broken up, and it was even impossible to maintain the friendship that had been on the surface in the past.

In this case, why should Gao Huan be restrained by Gao Huan because he holds the puppet Son of Heaven.

He Batyue died, and those who received his favor would also support themselves in opposing Gao Huan.

As soon as he thought of this, Yu Wentai immediately recruited his confidants to plan with him to set up a separate central government.

Of course, Yuwentai has a suitable candidate: Wang Yuanxiu of Pingyang, who entered the customs with him that day.

Yuan Xiu lived comfortably in Chang'an, he married a new wife, took in several beautiful concubines, and looked addicted to wine.

As for the wives and concubines who were arrested by Gao Huan, he had already left them behind.

Who are Gao Huan and Gao Cheng, Yuan Xiu knows too well.

There is a woman who falls into the hands of these two people, how can there be any other fate, when he thinks of his wife and concubine sisters being molested by these two father and son, Yuan Xiu is heartbroken, and after the pain, he frolicks with the bride again.

Some time ago, the news of He Batyue's death came to Yuan Xiu, who was very frightened, he was worried that Gao Huan would take advantage of the situation, and his new wife and concubine would fall into the hands of the Gao family's father and son.

But later learned that Yuwentai succeeded to Kansai, Yuan Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and continued to live a life of lustful dogs and horses.

This kind of life has lasted for a long time after the second interview with the Son of Heaven.

With Yuwentai's recommendation, He Bayue was very satisfied with Yuan Xiu at the beginning.

But there was a lesson from the first interview with the Son of Heaven, and Yuan Xiu didn't dare to be careless.

At the beginning in Luoyang, Gao Huan had obviously been deceived by him, but Gao Cheng made things worse.

Yuan Xiu still doesn't know where he showed his feet.

Eat a trench, grow a wisdom, Yuan Xiu indulged in lust, and from time to time confided in He Bayue and Yuwentai his hatred for Gao Huan and Gao Cheng.

Finally, when Yuwentai returned to Chang'an, Yuan Xiu learned the news he wanted most:

Kansai will set up a separate central government to compete with Gao Huan.

On November 27 of the second year of Yuan Shanjian, Yuan Xiu, with the support of Yuwentai, ascended the throne in Chang'an and became emperor.

Yuan Xiu issued an edict, bullied the young master, manipulated the government, and called on heroes from all over the country to attack.

He also awarded Yuwentai as the servant, the hussar general, the Kaifu Yitong three divisions, the governor of Kansai, the prince of Luoyang County, and the system of worship.

Looking at this long list of official names, the former Xiazhou assassin Shi Yu Wentai reaped rich political rewards.

At the same time, Yu Wentai also criticized Gao Huanli's behavior:

"He Liuhun succeeded to the throne with the young master, and he plotted against him, my Yuwen Black Otter is a loyal minister of the Great Wei, and he should be the king of the Changjun!"

For Yuan Xiu's call, not to mention Kanto, there are still two diehards in Kansai who are unwilling to join: Lingzhou Cao Ni and Weizhou Ke Zhu Hunyuan.

But Zhu Hunyuan is a native of Dina County, Tai'an County (Shouyang, Shanxi), and Dou Tai, the general of Gao Huan's wife's family, is a fellow villager in Tai'an.

Regarding Yuwentai's behavior of setting up a separate central committee, Zhu Hunyuan was extremely indignant.

For him, Gao Huan is his Ming Gong.

Ke Zhu Hunyuan, who is far away in Kansai, is loyal to Gao Huan for no reason.

First of all, his family scrolls are all in Kanto; Secondly, there is a Tai'an faction under Gao Huan's command dominated by Dou Tai, Mo Duo Lou Daiwen, Han Liang and others, but Zhu Hunyuan is alone in Kansai and is destined to have no sense of identity with Wuchuan Haojie.

Of course, what is more important is that he thinks that Gao Huan, who occupies Kanto, is the one who is really capable of achieving hegemony.

It's not that I don't agree with Yuwentai's ability, but compared with the Central Plains and Hebei, today's Guanlong is still much worse.

Gao Huan, who was far away in Jinyang, also got the news that Kansai had established a separate central government, and while he was angry, he couldn't help but sigh secretly:

'Yuwentai may not be as capable as He Bayue, but his courage is not weaker than Yue. ’

But appreciation is appreciation, this matter can't be let go like this, there are no two days, and there can't be two Wei in the world!

------Off topic------

Chapter 3 may be a little later, and if I don't finish it at twelve o'clock, I'll finish it in the wee hours of the morning and go to bed.
