Nanyang, Xinye, Jingzhou County Seat Seat.

Xinye was originally a small county in ruins, but after Zhuge Liang appeased the exiled people and organized the people to reclaim and develop, it has become a prosperous place in Nanyang.

So much so that after Cao Cao took over, he chose Xinye as the seat of Jingzhou.

A scattered snow shrouded all over the city, and Wen Pingpan sat on the newly made fire kang and couldn't help but sigh.

The eldest son Wen Dai, the adopted son Wen Xiu, and the nephew Wen Houju were all heavy-faced, so they heard Wen Ping say: "Ma Ji often sent people to Nanyang to teach the art of fire kang and fire wall construction. If the king does not increase his troops in Nanyang, I am afraid that the winter snow will not melt, and Ma Ji will often have the land of Nanyang at his fingertips. ”

Naturally, the technology is not taught to the common people, but to the scholar families in Nanyang counties, and these scholar families radiate and spread to the surrounding areas.

In the process of teaching technology, it is inevitable that something will happen.

Wen Hou and Wen Ping have a close relationship, and there is no bond between father and son: "Uncle, Jiangdong has been defeated in Jingzhou in a row, and peace is imminent." The king cut Jiangxia to boost Jiangdong's fighting spirit, but Jiangdong was frightened, and he was afraid that he would try to Huainan again. When Jiangdong reorganized its troops and horses to invade Hefei, it was also the day when the Jingzhou army went north. ”

Wen Ping didn't make comments, went to see Wen Dai, Wen Dai was not in good health, sitting on the warm kang and coughing a lot less.

With the spread of "Twelve Strategies for Epidemic Prevention and Rescue", Wen Dai was wearing a bamboo hat at the moment, hanging triple yarn, and his tone was rare and firm: "Father, Li Weigong is a great sage, and his relatives and friends are all over Jingyiyang Sanzhou. Such a character was given to death by Wu Hou for the crime of collaborating with the enemy. Wu Hou cut off the people of Jingzhou, intending to show favor to the King of Han to show that he did not covet Jingzhou. ”

Li Weigong, whose real name is Li Su, is a native of Nanyang Wan, a relative of Li Yan, and a fellow villager with Wenpin.

Sun Quan not only killed Li Su very simply, but also killed Nanyang Yang, Xie Jing and other rising stars who defected to Jiangdong.

The first suspicion was that Li Su and Yang Wei these Jingzhou people leaked secrets, and with the killing of these Jingzhou scholars, Lu Yi and Xie Jing led the army to flee, followed by Yu Tuan and his family to flee, and then except for some of the Jiangdong clans who were on business in Yuzhang and Jiangxia fled to Jingzhou, the rest were almost wiped out.

Wen Ping looked at his adopted son Wen Xiu again, Wen Xiu hesitated: "Father, I heard that Jingyi was short of food, and when Tian Xiaoxian led the partial army into Xiangguan, he quit the army because Jiangdong offered rice. In the past three years, the king has moved all the people of Hanzhong, resulting in the emptiness of the Central Plains, and the army and the people have all complained. Only the land of fish and rice in Jiangdong has a lot of harvest and many storages. ”

"If the Jiangdong branch rice is in Jingzhou after spring ploughing, and the army leads to attack Hefei, the Jingzhou army gets the rice of Jiangdong, and the good battle of Guan Junhou, Ma Mengqi, and Tian Xiaoxian will be able to defend our army, and we can only retreat to the Central Plains."

Wen Dai was weak and did not command the army, and Wen Xiu and Wen Hou were in charge of the Wen clan.

Seeing that Wen Hou, who had always been very active, was eager to try, Wen Ping looked sideways, and Wen Hou looked like he wanted to say something: "Uncle, there have been three rumors in the market recently, which are quite vicious. ”

Wen Ping just shook his head and smiled: "What can't you say?" There are no eggs under the nest today, and the survival of my family is within half a year. ”

Wen Hou is still very alert, looking at the battles of Xiangfan, Jiangling, and Maicheng, Wen Hou reacted quickly and took Wen Xiu to save his life from Tian Xin.

With the end of the war, the parties discussed the characters in the war, and Tian Xin had created a terrifying record: the battle was won, and the enemy would be killed and wounded.

"Yes, then the nephew dared to say it."

Wen Hou's body moved to the middle of the firekang, and he lowered his voice and said: "My nephew heard that the Han King Feng Tian Xiaoxian was the Marquis of Hugu Pavilion, and Tian Xiao first went to the table to resign, and pushed down the general Xu Chengzhen's merits. The king of Han worshiped General Xu Chengzhen Pingyu, supervised 8,000 Xiangjiang River sailors, sealed Shundehou, and ate thousands of households. ”

"The other two rumors are related to the north, one is a rumor, saying that the prince likes to forge swords, and there are many people who have been sentenced for their crimes at the rate of General Yu, some people say that the dead take more blood and quench swords, and some people say that General Yu is afraid of being sick."

Seeing that no one refuted, Wen Hou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "There is also a rumor that is widely circulating, saying that when Guan Junhou flooded the Seventh Army, the king deliberately leaked the words of moving the capital to induce the Wei Rebellion. The prince killed thousands of ...... before and after"

Wen Ping coughed lightly and interrupted twice at this time, and his tone was calm: "The king has the grace of knowing me, the king is in one day, and I will guard the land for the king for one day." Do not say such words again. ”

"Yes, my nephew understands the severity."

Wen Hou breathed a sigh of relief and laughed at himself: "Uncle, my family is in a border county, and the tribe is prosperous, so the old ones are all over the left and right. Otherwise, how can we be comfortable today? ”

No one refuted this, the main groups that were wantonly criticized by Cao Pi were the Guanxi scholars, and the Jingzhou scholars, Liu Biao was a native of Shanyang County, Yanzhou, and the scholars of Shanyang County were also unlucky, and the Kanto and Hebei scholars were implicated in a shallow depth and were not extensive.

If there is no foreign commander to guard the territory, no matter whether the Wen family stays in Xudu or Yecheng, they will not be able to escape prison and be punished.

The Kuai family was lucky, and Kuai Qi died in Fangling, so that the Kuai family survived a catastrophe.

The question now is not whether the Wen family is willing to die for the Cao family, but whether this kind of behavior makes sense.

Cao Pi's killing is fierce and majestic, and he can also scare the so-called gate lords and scholars, and he can't scare powerful factions like the Wen family.

Do your best to resist the Northern Expedition of the Jingzhou Army...... This is a war that is doomed to failure, not to overestimate Guan Yu, nor to underestimate oneself.

As long as the Jingzhou army launches a full-scale northern expedition and the Cao army has no reinforcements, the counties are bound to surrender.

After the repeated reigns of the Yellow Turban, Yuan Shu, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao, and Liu Bei, the people of Nanyang have learned the subtle means of surviving in troubled times.

Isn't it surrender?

Nanyang, with a population of more than 2 million at the end of the Han Dynasty, is now tossed by war and epidemic, and it is only its last breath.

Nanyang's gate valve and Haoqiang have long lost the glory of the emperor's hometown, and they no longer dare to shout the story and legend of their ancestor Kuang Fu Guangwu.

If the Wen family wants to resist, they may even end up deviating from their own songs.

After all, Nanyang is the emperor's hometown after all.

To be fair, the banner of the Han army is more attractive to the people of Nanyang.

Cao Cao did not send reinforcements to Nanyang, this is fair.

Will Cao Cao and Cao Pi send reinforcements to Nanyang?

Unless there is a decisive battle with all the strength of the country, it will not be sent.

Guan Yu's army of less than 30,000 people went on a northern expedition, annihilating 70,000 Cao Ren before and after; After the battle of Xiangfan, Guan Yu also turned around and went back to win Sun Quan's main force, and won more than 28,000 levels before and after.

The Jingzhou army did not have the propaganda habit of exaggerating the results of the war and making ten of them, saying that they would take as many prisoners as they could, and they would make as many profits as they could.

Now Guan Yu and Ma Chao have a combined army of 70,000 or 80,000, and they will attack Nanyang in the coming year, how many reinforcements will Cao Cao and Cao Pi send to stop it?

With the emptiness of the Central Plains, after the autumn harvest next year, can a field army of 100,000 people be mobilized to Jingzhou to participate in the war?

If you can't move, Wei Jun really can't move now, and you need at least two years to recuperate.

The main force of the Wei army can't be beaten, could it be that the people of Jingzhou and the people of Jingzhou are killing each other?

The Kuai family and the Cai family can also live and develop well when they move to the Central Plains and Hebei, they are a family with cultural heritage, and their children can go out at any time.

The Wen family is different, and if the Wen family loses its parts, the Wen family has no value in the eyes of Cao Wei.

Evacuate to the Central Plains with the troops...... Either hand over the trilogy or die, there is almost no third way.

The Wen family didn't have a choice, if they could, they would have moved from Jiangxia to Yingchuan, or Runan to garrison, and there was no reason to throw it to Nanyang.

Cao Cao also had no choice, which was caused by the lack of background of the Wen family, and the Wen family could not lose the part of their life; The Wen family entered the Central Plains with his subordinates, and he would be suspicious all the time.

Gathering and dispersing is so wonderful, when Liu Bei needed Wen Ping the most, Wen Ping took Jiangling to surrender to Cao Cao; Now it's dispensable, and Wen Ping can only take Nanyang County to surrender.
