Chapter Seventy-Eight: Fighting for Whom

"Murong Bao returned to Yecheng, I'm afraid Murong Chui will soon rebel, hey, our Heavenly King, His Majesty, is generous and merciful, and now he has ended up like this, it's really embarrassing." Duan Ye knocked on the table and said unhurriedly.

"Who's to say it isn't? It is not a good thing for a master to be lenient and benevolent. Zhang Meng has been in charge of intelligence work for a long time, and he knows a lot of things in detail, so he feels very sorry for him, in all fairness, although Fu Jian is also a Di person, but it is better than most Hu people, all of whom are Han people, and their feelings for Fu Jian are a little complicated.

"No, there is nothing wrong with being merciful, the key is to see who is merciful, and to what extent, Fu Jian's problem is to make a one-size-fits-all mistake without prioritizing the urgency." Duan Ye waved his hand and said, "You know, a few years ago, Fu Jian was the real heart of the world, and heroes from all walks of life could be used for it, if it wasn't for Wang Meng's early death, I don't think the battle of Weishui would have been fought, and even if it was fought, it would not have been lost." ”

Everyone is silent, Wang Meng! This brilliant and glorious name! Because of his appearance, with Fu Jian, a rare virtuous monarch, the Qin Empire, which was in a corner of the Guanzhong, unified the entire north in just a dozen years, with the territory of the desert in the north, Huaisi in the south, Yumen Pass in the west, and the sea in the east, and won consecutive battles in the battle with the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and it was not far from unification! But Wang Meng has been dead for less than a few years, and now he is suddenly like a building toppling, how can it not make people sigh.

"Alas! It's a pity that a talent like Wang Meng was actually used by Fu Jian! Liu Guo slapped his thigh, obviously very dissatisfied.

"Didn't Wang Meng want to give his life to our Han people? It's not that he hasn't been to the Huanwen army. Zhang Meng retorted.

"Alright." Duan Ye saw that the two of them had a tendency to quarrel, and hurriedly said: "The world is the world of the Han family, only the Han family is Zhengshuo, but the Sima family is mediocre and incompetent, and cannot be the lord of China. Our blood is all the blood of the Han people, and we have to end up with the Han people, but we don't have to end up with a family name! ”

Duan Ye's words, the righteousness of what he said was awe-inspiring, everyone felt shocked in their hearts, the people present had read some books, but they had never thought that the Son of Heaven was the symbol of the nation in the world, but if they were not loyal to one family and one surname, who were they loyal to?

"Okay, let's think about what to do with Zhang Tianxi's father and son first." Duan Ping pulled the topic back, "Now they are afraid that they are going to go on the defensive, I have heard that many people from the gentry of Liangzhou go to Chaoyang every day, and Zhang Tianxi's reputation is soaring, which is not a good thing for us." ”

"Not bad!" Duan Ye was a little serious, "We are returning to the east this time, no matter what, many people will think that we are rebellious, but Liang Xi is really unsuccessful, he is definitely finished, now it is impossible for Chang'an to send reinforcements, Fu Jian is already too busy to take care of himself, if Zhang Tianxi does not escape back, it is okay, Zhang Dayu's appeal is insufficient, and the people of Liangzhou, even if they are unwilling, will willingly return, but now that they have one more choice, things will be troublesome." ”

"Zhang Tianxi's father and son live in Yangwu now, and there are only thousands of soldiers and horses, do they have a chance to succeed?" Liu Guo had some doubts.

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and the nine-story platform starts from the ground, there is nothing impossible, we must be careful." Duan Ye said solemnly, "However, Zhang Tianxi's return, it must be a big trouble for Jiexia, it may be much more difficult for him to recover Liangzhou, we, hehehe, we have to help the Jiexia, don't we?" ”

Duan Ye's eyes flickered, and all those present were his henchmen, which was mysterious and wonderful.

The development of the situation even surprised Duan Ye, Zhang Tianxi had just returned to Yangwu not long ago, Changshui Captain Wang Mu led 3,000 elite soldiers to suddenly announce their return to Zhang Tianxi, and brought a large amount of grain and grass, Zhang Tianxi's morale was greatly boosted, and at the same time, rumors about Zhang Tianxi's return from 10 years of immersion began to circulate in the counties and counties of Liangzhou, even including those that had been occupied by Lu Guang, although Lu Guang reacted in time, found the source of the rumors and quickly dealt with it. But if you ignore this kind of rumor, it will become more and more outrageous, and if you ignore it, it will cause your heart to sit down and be honest, and what you do is not right. Lu Guang discussed with everyone for a long time, but decided not to let the rumors spread, so he took a thunderbolt method, and on the city gates of Jiuquan, Dunhuang, Zhangye and other cities, dozens of bloody heads hung high there, making people's hearts furious.

However, just a few days after it stopped, the even more shocking news came, Zhang Tianxi personally led more than 10,000 troops, beating gongs and drums along the way, and rushed to Guzang! Before leaving, Zhang Tianxi sent an article, which was very rich in content, very long, and very beautifully worded, which probably means that I, Zhang Tianxi, was not angry in the past and ruined the country and family, which was my fault, but now, I want to come back and get back everything I have!

The first two sentences are really strong: Heaven is good, there is a reason to cover China, and the people's hearts are smooth, although the husband has revenge!

The whole article was brilliant and confident, and for a while, the counties of Liangzhou, including the counties that Lu Guang had occupied, were fluctuating.

However, now Zhang Tianxi, who is a minister with Wang Mu as his adviser, has obviously learned the lessons of the past, he has lived in Guzang City for a full thirty-five years, and naturally knows that the city is high and deep, and it is difficult to conquer suddenly, but Zhang Tianxi's station is not far from Guzang, but he is slow along the way, making a big noise, on the one hand, it is prudent to prevent the enemy from sneaking attack, and on the other hand, it is more important, but it is to attract the troops who join the army along the road.

This move really worked, the residents of Liangzhou in the eastern half, the retired officials have joined, and the local forces from all walks of life who are watching the situation have not hesitated to announce their submission, and when Zhang Tianxi's army is only a few dozen miles away from Guzang, there are already tens of thousands of people, looking at it from a distance, the flag is waving, and the army is vast, although it is said that due to the hasty formation, there is not even a unified military uniform, and the people are also mixed with Hu and Han, each with their own thoughts, but in just a few days can have such a situation, it seems that the people's morale is available, and the military heart can be feared!

At this time, there was also a fierce debate in Guzang City.

The reason why Liang Xi was full of confidence before was that he saw the retreat of Hongchi Ridge, and accordingly defended Guzang, at least he could block the momentum of the Lu army, and he could also find an opportunity in the field battle, so as not to defend the city in vain, so Li Tong gave up Zhangye without asking for instructions, led the army to return east, and led the troops to Hongchi to lead, Liang Xi was overjoyed, and also took the initiative to write a book, posthumously recognizing Li Tong as the governor of the western capital, and actually granted military power.

In addition, Liang Xi also urgently mobilized the remaining manpower and material resources around Guzang, and had an army of nearly 30,000 people, including supporting Li Tongwan, and he led an army of 10,000 to garrison Guzang, and ordered Situ Buqun, who has always been presided over by the soldiers, to lead an army of 10,000 and garrison outside the city of Guzang, one city and one battalion, thinking that it was a corner.

Of course, although he knew that the Central Plains was now in chaos, he still held the hope of sending someone to Chang'an to find His Majesty the Heavenly King to plead his case, looking forward to the day when His Majesty the King thanked him for his many years of loyalty and sent reinforcements.

As for Zhang Dayu, who has not moved for a while, he was automatically ignored by Liang Xi, this dignified prince of Liang Wang is the first person to make a battle, and he has not come up with anything for so long, which shows that his ability is really not good, such a person, although Liang Tingshi has lost one after another, and even his son has folded in, he still can't look down on him.

But when the news of Zhang Tianxi's appearance came, Liang Xi's already fragile heart finally couldn't stand it, and when Liang Xi woke up from his coma, he found himself sleeping on the couch, and a group of haggard civil and military men were standing in front of him.

"How's it going?" Liang Xi now looks no different from an eighty-year-old man, and his voice is weak, and he can't see the shadow of the young and shrewd envoy before.

is still standing here and hasn't run, either he can't run, or he is really loyal to Liang Xi. Gao Jun, the secretary and supervisor, said with a crying voice: "Envoy! Lu Guang's thieves did not move, and now the governor of Li Tong is also in full swing, and there is nothing to do on the western front, but the eastern front...... Zhang Tianxi has already proclaimed himself the King of Liang, built the Yuan Flying Dragon, set up the official office, and now there are 30,000 people, and it is only seventy miles away from Guzang City! ”

"Hehehehe." Liang Xi actually laughed, but everyone could hear the misery and sadness in his laughter, the situation in Liangzhou was already almost irretrievable, and now facing a two-front battle, almost with his toes, he could think of four words - the general trend has gone.

"Make Jun ......" Gao Jun paused, "Now that Situ is not driving the troops outside, he suggested that it is better to withdraw the troops on the western front and reinforce Gu Zang, Gu Zang Ning and Lu Guang, and not Zhang Tianxi." ”

"Huh?" Liang Xibai frowned, "What does this mean?" ”

Hua Ming, the chief secretary of Wuwei, hurriedly said: "Envoy, although the Lu thief is attacking my Liangzhou now, it is like a rebellion, but after all, he has not played the anti-flag, let alone stood on his own, and that Zhang Tianxi is the last king of the Liang Kingdom who has been defeated, and he also has a lot of appeal in Liangzhou, this ...... The lesser of two evils makes you think twice. ”

"Please think twice!" The crowd shouted in unison.

"Ugh." Liang Xi sighed, he wanted to be mad, but looking at the group of people in front of him, there was no speculation and cunning in their eyes, but more worry and concern, if they want to run, want to defect to others, they don't have to wait until now, surrender is naturally the sooner the more sincere and the more beneficial, now although he is still nominally the history of Liangzhou Thorn, but there is only a corner of Guzang in his hands, and the soldiers and horses are not enough to fight, they say this, it is really kind!

"Do you all think so?" Liang Xi said weakly.

"Envoy! The inferior know that this is really a last resort, but what can be done? Now Gu Zangcheng is afraid that he can't stop Zhang Tianxi's army! Moreover, Zhang Tianxi is the former king of Liang, once he takes back the capital Guzang, he will inevitably stand up to worship his ancestors, I am afraid that the people of Liangzhou will also suffer from unjustified disasters at that time, and the people of Liangzhou will be even more difficult to escape! ”
