"Whose general is that, so brave." Upstairs in Pyeongchang, Pei Kuo, the general of the middle base, asked.

This man is about thirty years old, and he looks resolute and handsome, and his appearance is extraordinary. If Shao Xun is here, if you look closely, you can find that there are some similarities between this gentleman's eyebrows and Concubine Pei.

The war drums that played a huge role in Fang Cai were the ones he made people beat.

It's all an old trick on the battlefield.

As soon as the war drums sounded, the thief army thought that the defenders in the city were going to attack, and they broke up on the spot.

"Coming from Pingchangmen Royal Street, could it be the Sizhou soldiers stationed in the Mingtang and Lingtai areas?" Pei Yao looked at it for a while, didn't see anything famous, and replied.

Pei Yao is Pei Kuo's cousin, 26 years old this year, and has not yet become a monk.

The Pei family in Hedong is a big family, and the real political stage should be Pei Mao in the late Han Dynasty, who was named a marquis for leading the generals in Guanzhong to kill Li Dao.

Pei Mao had three sons: Pei Qian, Pei Hui, and Pei Ji, who were known as the "Three Ancestors" in Pei's most glorious Tang Dynasty (which produced seventeen prime ministers).

Emperor Pei Qianwei Ming was Shang Shuling at the time, and died in the fifth year of Zhengshi (244).

Qianzi Pei Xiu is a subordinate official of the general Cao Shuang. After the fall of Cao Shuang, he was a subordinate official of Sima Zhao, and he was named the Duke of Julu in the Jin Dynasty, and the official was in the sky.

Xiuzi is a celebrity, because his father was still young when he died, so he went to his uncle Jia Chong, and constantly got promoted.

Because his cousin Jia Nanfeng was the queen, Pei Wei was in a high position, and he was in charge of state affairs with Zhang Hua and others, and was later killed by Sima Lun, the king of Zhao.

After such an experience, Pei Qian's vein can be regarded as a great injury, and he no longer becomes the political representative of the Pei family in Hedong.

Pei Mao's second son, Pei Hui, was the assassin of Cao Wei and Jizhou. He had four sons: Pei Li, Pei Kang, Pei Kai, and Pei Xuan.

Pei Li was a guerrilla general, but he has passed away, and has two sons, Pei Bao and Pei Cui, who later developed in the Xiliang region.

Pei Kang once served as the head of the prince's left guard, and now he is a general. Kang had four sons, namely Pei Chun, Pei Dun, Pei Shao, and Pei Kuo, and two daughters, one married to Sima Yue and the other to Bian Yan.

Pei Kai had five sons: Pei Yu, Pei Zhan, Pei Xian, Pei Li, and Pei Xun.

This department originally developed well, and it had the momentum of succeeding Pei Xiu and Pei Yi and becoming the political spokesperson of the Pei family. But because Pei Kai and Jia Chong and others are too close, and his son Pei Zan is Yang Jun's son-in-law, he was implicated and hit hard, and is currently in the stage of licking his wounds in a low-key manner.

Pei Suizi Ji Shu, the official to the Yellow Gate Squire, has passed away, posthumously presented to the captain of Changshui. Pei Yao is Pei Sui's son.

Overall, among Pei Mao's three sons, Pei Hui's lineage is the most developed, and the Tang Dynasty's "Western Pei" was also developed by Pei Hui's descendants - named after most of the officials in the Xiliang area.

Among Pei Hui's four sons, it seems that Pei Hui's branch is not developing smoothly at present. But in the end, it is his own brother, Pei Kang has a lot of care for the descendants of the fourth brother who has died, which is the main reason why Pei Yao follows Pei Kuo.

"The guards of the Ming Hall and the Lingtai have long since dispersed." Pei Kuo shook his head and said, "Most of them came from the Kaiyang Gate." ”

Pei Yao thought about it, most of those Sizhou soldiers were newly recruited, and their morale was low, and when they heard that the enemy's 300,000 troops were killed, many troops were scattered one after another, and they returned to their hometowns under the leadership of the officers, how to fight until this time?

Some time ago, my cousin's servant Pei 16 came back from the south of the city, saying that the Mi Huang Department of the Biyong garrison was quite disciplined and morale was high, and the governor Shao Xun had the courage of the world, and killed the thief Li Yi all the way to the outside of Kaiyang Gate.

This time, could it be that Mi Huang has made a great contribution? If it's true, he has some ability, and it's too condescending to be a protector in the shogunate, and it's no problem to join the military.

Thinking of this, Pei Yao's heart moved, and said: "This person is designated as the general of the Yuefu family, so brave, it is rare in the world." It's better for the elder brother to send someone to visit the princess and touch the details of this person. ”

Pei Kuo glanced at his cousin and bowed slightly.

He knew what Pei Yao meant, and he also knew that Pei Yao was depressed in his heart and had always wanted to get ahead.

Is brother-in-law Sima Yue a good target? Pei Kuo didn't dare to say that.

Moreover, after the two catastrophes of Pei Xiu, Pei Yi's father and son, and the third uncle Pei Kai, the Pei family was already a little scared and unwilling to take the initiative to participate in the power struggle within the royal family.

As for how the children and grandchildren choose personally, the clan elders are not very willing to care. As long as it doesn't bring trouble to the family, long bets are acceptable – or perhaps it's the usual tactic of the family.

As far as Pei Kuo himself is concerned, his younger sister is the princess of the East China Sea, and the second brother Pei Dun also wants to follow the path of the king of the East China Sea and release him as a assassin, and it is enough to have these two people in Yuefu. Pei Yao leaned over again, it didn't really make much sense, but he wouldn't stop it in person.

"After going straight, you go to visit the eldest sister and see what she has to say." Pei Kuo said suddenly.

Pei Yao was overjoyed in his heart, but he controlled his emotions well and said in a low voice: "No." ”

Pei Kuo silently watched the messy battlefield, and his mind didn't know where he had flown to.

Wang Shi won big victories one after another, but the situation was still confusing, because he knew too well the virtues of those big families.

******

The fiasco in the Battle of Jianchunmen greatly affected the entire battle situation.

At the very least, the land planes have lost confidence in field battles.

On the one hand, there is doubting oneself.

On the other hand, the problem is even more serious: the generals already despise him, and after this defeat, who will listen to his orders?

Sixteen generals, including Jia Chong and Jia Ling, were beheaded by Wang Hu, making this Taiwei Mansion Sima from a poor family famous.

At that time, Wang Hu first rode and assaulted, killed the general Ma Xian, and then swept the rout, decisively invested more than 6,000 light and heavy cavalry, repeatedly ravaged, and then pressed the infantry, and finally succeeded in the first battle.

The courage and bravery of the Chinese army in Luoyang makes people change color.

Shi Chao, Wang Cui, Lianxiu and others have no longer listened to the call, and all the leaders have set up camp to watch and help each other. The entire Jizhou Army was in a state of confusion and anxiety, losing the ability to attack in a short period of time, and it was necessary to put things in order.

And if the main force is defeated like this, the flank battlefield will naturally not be better.

As the defeated soldiers in the north and south of the city ran back one after another, Lu Ji knew that he had broken Meng Chao again!

He no longer thinks about what it means for him, he only thinks about how to stabilize the situation.

"We can't fight anymore." Sima Sun Zheng lamented repeatedly: "For today's plan, we can only go deep and high, frustrate the enemy's spirit with a strong village, slowly clean up the army's heart, and then try to do anything else." ”

He is too deeply bound to Lu Ji, and it is impossible for him to switch to others, so he can only seriously think about his next actions, so as not to cause greater trouble.

In fact, there is still a chance to win.

Just one word: consumption.

"Governor, as long as our army does not retreat, Luoyang City will still be surrounded by death." Sun Zheng said: "More than 200,000 troops, losing tens of thousands of people, the sky can't fall. We still have a chance. ”

"You also know that we have 200,000 horses and horses, and our daily consumption is huge, and it is all up to the people of Hebei to transfer grain and grass day and night to maintain continuous military feeding." Lu Ji also sighed: "If we hold on for a long time, the king may lose patience." ”

"But now I can't fight, and no one listens to orders." Sun Zheng hurriedly said: "Shi Chao, Wang Cui, Lianxiu, Gongshi Fan and others are no longer subject to moderation, and they are still discussing something in private. At this time, there must be no room for error. ”

"Secret discussion......" Lu Ji smiled bitterly.

The whole army was defeated, not only his coach Lu Ji was responsible, but these generals were not responsible?

Seeing that the former army was defeated like a mountain, and many generals were killed in battle, Xianxiu was the first to run, followed by Shi Chao, Wang Cui, and Gongshi Fan, leaving all the friendly troops behind.

To say an ironic thing, on the contrary, the Luoyang Chinese army, which had defected before the battle, launched a counter-charge, slightly stopping Wang Shi's pursuit, otherwise the loss would definitely be more than that.

Most of these people are secretly discussing how to shirk their responsibilities and let him Lu Ji carry everything alone.

It was as if he could already foresee his end.

More than a dozen generals died in battle, most of them were Hebei scholars, what will their families think of themselves?

When the army set out, the people of Yecheng were overjoyed, and some people even boasted that since Wei, there had never been such a prosperous army. Now that they have lost and many people have died, the accounts always have to be settled, and who will speak for themselves when the time comes?

"Don't think about it so much." Lu Ji raised his head, looked at the blood-red sunset in the sky, and said after a while: "As long as I am still the governor for a day, as long as the king does not dismiss me for a day, I have the responsibility to lead all the battalions." ”

"Governor ......" Sun Zheng's face was gloomy.

"So be it." Lu Ji took a deep breath and made up his mind: "Send people to the battalions, talk well, and invite all the generals over." You're right, it's time to dig deep and build a high fortress and slowly restore the morale of the army. After the reorganization is completed, the attack will be launched again step by step. ”

"Faith!" Lu Ji accentuated his tone and said, "Confidence is the most important thing. There are still more than 200,000 troops in the east and west directions, and once we turn to the defense, Sima Yi will not be able to eat us. If the king is impatient, or if there is a misunderstanding, I will explain. ”

"No." Sun Zheng responded and prepared to give the order.

Before leaving, he couldn't help but glance at Lu Ji more.

Taikang Zhiying, who was once high-spirited, is now haggard, and her body is even a little rickety.

Sun Zheng turned his head abruptly and shed a few tears.

In the first place, he shouldn't have left Wu County.

Wrong fame, wrong fame!
