Farmer of Shu Han Chapter 1202

Chapter 1202 Wind Sound

Captured Gaoducheng, Wei Yan's tense mood finally relaxed:

"With Gaoducheng, the land of Shangdang, it can be said to be worry-free!"

Standing on the highest point, looking to the south, he even smiled and said to the crowd behind him:

"The thief's reinforcements arrived at Tianjing Pass, but they missed the opportunity at the last moment. I don't know how the thief will feel at this time?"

Wang Han and others all laughed dryly.

General Zuo Hussar finally told a joke, wouldn't it be too shameful not to laugh?

Although the joke is a bit off.

After all, these days, in order to capture Gaodu City, the casualties of soldiers are a bit too high.

Everyone feels a little heavy.

Probably seeing the mentality of the generals, Wei Yan let go of his temper rarely, and explained a few more words:

"I besieged Gaodu City before and did not attack, except that I wanted the engineering battalion to completely destroy the periphery of Gaodu City so that it would be easier to attack the city later."

"Actually, it is also to attract as many bandits as possible from Tianjing Pass to come to the rescue."

"What I want is to wait until the bandit army at Tianjingguan reaches the highest capital, and then drive the army to break the city with one drum."

"At that time, there will be few guards at Tianjing Pass, and we will be able to break through the pass and enter by ourselves."

As he spoke, Wei Yanyan took his hand and shook it hard towards the south, as if he wanted to hold the patio gate in his hands:

"At that time, the generals and soldiers of the Han Dynasty will be able to advance and retreat freely in Taihangxing, but the thieves in Hanoi will not be able to rest for a day."

Obtaining Gaodu City can only be regarded as closing the gap in the south of Shangdang County.

But if you want to enter Hanoi, you must master the Tianjing Pass.

Because Tianjing Pass is the most important and most dangerous pass on the Taihang Line.

"such a pity…"

This is a pity, some sighs, and some resentment.

Although it's a pity, Wei Yan didn't say it clearly.

But the people present, when they heard this, basically understood in their hearts.

Wei Chang opened his mouth, wanting to comfort his lord, but he closed his mouth again when he thought of being kicked the day before yesterday and almost took his breath away.

Forget it, at this time, don't touch the bad luck of adults anymore.

If Wei Chang doesn't speak, others can't speak.

Anyway, the capital city has already fallen, so even if General Zuo Hussar said some slightly excessive words, it would not hurt the seriousness.

After all, I heard that General Zuo Hussar had talked about the prime minister behind his back.

Besides, there is one thing to say, what General Zuo Hussar said just now, in all honesty, is indeed a good strategy.

If General Zuo Hussar really planned for so long, but was transferred at the last moment, resulting in a fall short, it is understandable that he would be dissatisfied.

Of course, General Zuo Hussar was at odds with Zhongduhu, and he didn't communicate well with Zhongduhu beforehand. The mistake caused by this may be God's will.

Wei Yan saw that everyone was silent, and no one refuted.

I couldn't help but sneered to myself at the moment, and I was even more convinced that the reason why my plan was blocked was precisely because of the treacherous tricks.

As for this plan, does it matter whether he prepared it early in the morning, or after listening to Guo Xun's persuasion?

Anyway, he only needs everyone present to know that General Left Hussar could have won a bigger victory.

As he said back then, patting his chest in front of the late emperor:

If Cao Cao came from all over the world, please reject it for the king; if a crowd of 100,000 comes, please swallow it for the king.

For example, suggest in front of the prime minister:

Leading a partial division and attacking Chang'an will definitely make the thieves abandon the city and flee, and then they can go directly to Tongguan to resist the enemy. At that time, the prime minister will bring the army to take over Chang'an.

Now, it's not normal for me to spray someone Feng so that I can't take the opportunity to capture the Tianjing Pass?

Anyway, let's talk about it first.

Of course, just because no one spoke, it doesn't mean that everyone agrees with Wei Yan's statement.

Wang Han, for example, wanted to defend Zhongduhu a few words.

After all, such matters before the battle were not agreed in advance, how could the Central Guard guess what General Zuo Hussar was thinking?

It's just that General Zuo Hussar obviously wants to use this matter to protect the signs of parting with the Central Capital.

It's about the fighting skills of the two big men in the army. He said lightly, if he really dared to enter the arena rashly, he might die on the spot?

But after stepping back, Wang Han couldn't help but said to Wen Shi in private:

"As the saying goes: everything is forewarned, it will be established, and if it is not forewarned, it will be abolished. Even if it is forewarned, it will always be abolished."

"The former Zuo Hussar General didn't preview the future with the Central Duhu, but now he uses the funeral to criticize the Zhongdu Hu. This is a bit too much."

Wen Shi is older and has more mature ideas, so he is more open-minded than Wang Han:

"The Central Capital can't stand up, and the Zuo Hussar General is approaching his age. If the imperial court doesn't rely on the Central Capital Protector in the future, should it rely on the Left Hussar General?"

"Therefore, even if the Zhongduhu is blamed for this incident, it will not hurt the muscles and bones, so why should you care?"

"Instead of being entangled in the matter of the Zuo Hussar General and the Central Guard, it is better to think about what to do after the engineering battalion."

Wang Han thinks about it too.

"A while ago, I thought reinforcements from thieves had already appeared at Tianjing Pass. If General Zuo Hussars couldn't take down Gaodu City, I'm afraid it would be a desperate battle."

"At that time, the engineering battalion may not be able to survive alone. Unexpectedly, at this time, it seems that I am worrying too much."

Wang Han thought for a while, "But now that the capital city has fallen, the engineering battalion has completed its task, and the reinforcements have arrived, so we may not be needed on the mountain."

Defending a city is far easier than besieging it.

In addition, the high capital city is built on the mountain.

The rocks and forests all over the mountains and plains are the most convenient tools for defending the city.

Preparing wood and rolling stones does not require technical units such as engineering battalions.

Besides, the left hussar general has enough troops now. If he really wants to do something good, he probably won't get the engineering battalion in his turn.

"It's better to take this opportunity and retreat to the rear, so as not to block the eyes of the left hussar general."

Wen Shi nodded and said yes.

Knowing that the engineering battalion had voluntarily applied to retreat to the rear, Wei Yan thought that they were very sensible, so he was not polite, and agreed with a wave of his hand.

Next, he will strictly guard against the counterattack of the thieves at Tianjing Pass.

Currently, the walls of Gaodu City are dilapidated, and the only thing we can rely on right now is naturally the hills connecting Gaodu City.

The fact that the front engineering battalion refused to go down the mountain to try to fire the stone cannon, Wei Yan naturally wouldn't forget it so quickly.

So now he simply doesn't let the engineering battalion get too close.

Just as Wei Yan arranged for manpower to build fortifications on various hills, in Taiyuan, far in the north, the governor hurried into the governor's mansion without driving Li Wei.

Before the people arrived at the place where Deng Zhi was, he kept shouting:

"Envoy, envoy!"

Deng Zhi came out of the room to welcome him after hearing the words, and said with a smile:

"Why did Ji He lose his composure?"

Li Xun didn't answer Deng Zhi's words. Regardless of being extremely rude, he directly grabbed Deng Zhi's arm and said in a panic:

"Master, great disaster, great disaster!"

When Deng Zhi heard this, the smile on his face disappeared immediately:

"What disaster?"

Although Li Xun is a descendant, in the past few years, he has been a fair and upright official.

On the contrary, she gets along quite well with Deng Zhi, who is steadfast and simple, and who forgets her family when she is in office.

At this time, Deng Zhi heard Li Xi's words, so naturally he didn't dare to neglect.

"Shangdang..."

Li Xun just said two words, then looked around, then grabbed Deng Zhi's arm and led him inside:

"Talk inside."

Arrived in the house, before sitting down, Li Xun couldn't wait to speak:

"My lord, someone from my family has come to report that something important will happen to the Shangdang."

Li Xun is a member of the Shangdang Party, the son of Li Xun, the great Honglu of the later Han Dynasty, and has few high-ranking talents, so he is also well-known in the village.

Now when he heard him talk about Shangdang, Deng Zhi's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked:

"What's the big deal?"

"I heard from the tribe that, these days in Shangdang, some people have been secretly contacting to raise the banner of rebellion.

Hearing this, Deng Zhi frowned:

"Oh? There is such a thing? Who took the lead in the rebellion, Ji He knows?"

Li Xun shook his head: "I don't know. I heard from the clansmen that the Shangdang might already have the Haoyou family involved."

He looked at Deng Zhi with a serious tone:

"My lord, in my opinion, since the thieves dared to contact the various families so boldly, they must have been prepared, so I am afraid that something will happen right in front of them."

Deng Zhi nodded, then stroked his beard:

"What Ji He said is true, but I don't need to worry too much if I think about it."

"Although I sometimes don't like Wei Wenchang, I have to admit that he is also a man who knows how to fight..."

Before Deng Zhi finished speaking, Li Xun slapped his thigh:

"Hey! Your Majesty, the catastrophe I mentioned is precisely because of Wei Wenchang!"

Deng Zhi was surprised: "What happened to Wei Wenchang?"

Li Xi said in a hurried tone:

"Didn't Wei Wenchang lead the troops to attack Gaodu? I heard from the tribe that because Gaodu has been unable to attack for a long time, all the elite soldiers in Shangdang are now transferred south."

"The eldest son of Huguan and other places can only be guarded by Guo Xunling, who joined the army."

"What!" Deng Zhi's complexion changed drastically when he heard the words, and he blurted out, "Isn't this the key..."

Halfway through speaking, he suddenly felt something was wrong, and quickly changed his words: "How could Wei Wenchang do such a stupid thing?"

What Wei Wenchang did at this time is not the story of Guan Yunchang's Xiangfan battle?

This person's temper is more extreme than Guan Yunchang's on weekdays, so why do he have to compare with Guan Yunchang in such matters?

If there is only civil strife in Shangdang, or if there is no civil strife, only Wei thieves will attack.

Guo Xun led the army to guard Huguan, as long as he persisted for a while.

Wei Yan may lead the army back, or send people back to help, but there is no need to worry too much.

I'm afraid, after the civil strife broke out in the Shangdang, the Wei thieves attacked from Baixing again. Under internal and external difficulties, Guo Xun led the county soldiers, and I don't know if they can hold Huguan?

Thinking of this, Deng Zhi shook his head again and again: "It's too risky, it's too risky!"

Li Xun stomped his feet and said:

"My lord, now we are not discussing why Wei Wenchang did this, but we should notify Wei Wenchang as soon as possible!"

Don't blame Li Xi for being so anxious.

After all, his hometown is Shangdang.

If something happened to Shangdang and it fell into the hands of Wei thieves, then the in-laws and clansmen in Shangdang would definitely be implicated.

"Hey!" Deng Zhi also felt troublesome, "Although Shangdang belongs to Bingzhou, it is now under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Mansion in Hedong. It's not easy for me to intervene before the matter is clear."

There is no official document sent yet about the chaos caused by some people in the Shangdang, let alone the possibility of Wei thieves attacking from Baixing, it is just the worst result of guessing.

Everything has not happened yet, what reason do you have to send troops into Shangdang?

"Now it seems that the only way is to send a fast horse to Gaodu according to what Jihe said, to inform Wei Yan of this matter, and let him be careful in the rear."

Deng Zhi didn't hesitate at all, hurriedly edited a book, and sent someone to send it out immediately.

After sending someone to deliver the letter, Deng Zhi was still in the mood to comfort Li Xun:

"Ji He doesn't need to be so anxious. Since we know that there are people who want to make trouble in Shangdang, Wei Wenchang should have his ears and eyes to inform him."

"Maybe Wei Yan already knew about it before our fast horse arrived."

When Li Xi heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched.

Secretly thought it would be great if it was true.

It's just the envoy, don't you know Wei Wenchang's temper?

Even I know about the fact that the whole court is against him.

Can you still expect him to let go of his figure and make friends with the powerful right and left of the Shangdang?

Dreaming!

Without the help of Fang Haoyou, how could Wei Wenchang get the news so quickly like himself?

It's just that now, Li Xi also knows that it's useless to be anxious.

He sighed and comforted himself:

"I heard that Guo Xun, who joined the army, is quite talented and has made good friends with many aristocratic families. I only hope that he will be found out early and make preparations in time as the envoy said."

When Deng Zhi heard this, he immediately asked:

"Since the people of Jihe clan can hear the news so quickly, why don't they report to Guo Xun directly?"

Li Xi smiled wryly: "Your Majesty, there is no evidence for such pretentious things. How can I report? Isn't that a false accusation?"

"Besides, that's the Governor's Mansion in Hedong..."

The governor of Hedong Dudu Mansion is Wei Yan.

And after the Dahan recovered Bingzhou, instead of being questioned, he continued to serve as Bingzhou Biejia, but it was because of the recommendation of the Central Guard.

Zhongduhu and Wei Wenchang are in the same situation, if he really wants to let his tribe do this, wouldn't he just hit the knife edge?

He sighed:

"The envoy is close to me, so even if he only listens to my family, he is willing to believe me. But it may not be the case with the Governor's Mansion in Hedong."

Deng Zhi heard some words and said apologetically:

"I really didn't think carefully about this matter."

He thought for a while, and then said:

"As Ji He said, when someone in Shangdang caused chaos, we would rather believe it than believe it."

"As for the fact that the Shangdang rebellion and the Wei thieves are both internal and external, even if it is our guess, we must make preparations early."

However, there is Yanmen in the north of Taiyuan, and Hedong and Shangdang in the south, so there is no need to worry about thieves.

And to the east is the Taihang Mountains, and there are some guards at the pass on weekdays.

In addition, in the past few years, most of the Xiongnu Hu people in the county have been relocated to Yanmen to realize the frontier fortress.

Therefore, most of the guards in Jinyang City are county soldiers, and their combat power may be insufficient.

"Ji He, please go to Pingcheng for me, please protect Xianbei Colonel Lieutenant General Wang to come to Jinyang..."

Before he finished speaking, Deng Zhi shook his head and vetoed:

"It's not too late, I'd like to invite him to visit Yanmen Fortress. I will also leave immediately and go to Yanmen Fortress. In this way, I can save some time without talking."

Li Xi hurriedly cupped his hands:

"I would like to obey the order of the envoy."

After speaking, he didn't dare to neglect, and quickly turned around and left the Governor's Mansion.

But before going to Pingcheng, he summoned the clansmen who came to report the news as quickly as possible, and ordered:

"You go back immediately and tell the family that if something goes wrong with the Shangdang, the whole family will immediately flee to Jinyang."

After the clansmen responded, Li Xun got on his horse and headed north.
