Chapter 667: Qin Mi offers a plan

The area of Yizhou Ba County is very large, spanning one-third of the length of Yizhou from north to south, and the east-west latitude occupies almost half of the width of Yizhou.

During the Warring States Period, King Huiwen of Qin, with Sima Cuo as the commander, destroyed the Shu Kingdom and set up Ba County here.

After Liu Zhang occupied Yizhou, he thought that the area of Ba County was too large to rule, so he divided it into three in the first year of Xingping: Ba County to the north of Dianjiang, Yongning County from Jiangzhou to Linjiang, and Guling County from Quren to Yufu.

In other words, Ba County has since been divided into three counties by two large rivers that run through it.

The history is strikingly similar, after Wen Zhao captured Hanzhong, although Liu Zhang sent Zhang Song to test Wen Zhao's attitude, he was still afraid that Guanzhong's soldiers would attack Ba County from the south of Hanzhong.

In the sixth year of Jian'an, Yongning County was once again divided into Ba County, which was the southernmost Jiangzhou County in Ba County, and appointed Yan Yan as the Taishou of Ba County, stationed heavy troops to prevent Guanzhong soldiers from going south.

Bajun Taishou was originally Pang Xi, Pang Xi was a member of the Si Liren clan, and once served as a councillor during the period of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.

After Liu Yan entered Shu, Pang Xi abandoned his official position and defected to Liu Yan and served as a subordinate of Liu Yan, the pastor of Yizhou, and was the leader of the Dongzhou scholars under Liu Yan.

The so-called Dongzhou refers to the households and scholars who moved from Sanfu and Nanyang to Yizhou during the period of Liu Yan and Liu Zhang, and these outsiders were all called Dongzhou people.

Fa Zheng and Meng Da under Liu Zhang's command also belong to the Dongzhou clan.

When Liu Yan was seriously ill, his son Liu Zhang was still serving as the lieutenant of Fengche in the court, and Liu Zhang came to Yizhou to visit his father, but Liu Yan forcibly stayed in Yizhou.

Why is it forcible, because Liu Zhang at that time was not so much an official in the court as a proton. Even if Liu Zhang came to Yizhou to visit Liu Yan, who was seriously ill, he was accompanied by angels from the court.

Liu Zhang was left behind, and Liu Yan passed the position of Yizhou pastor to him, and appointed Pang Xi as the important minister of Tuogu. Pang Xi was together with Zhao Wei and was the hero who assisted Liu Zhang in ascending the throne.

Pang Xi married his daughter to Liu Zhang's eldest son, and the relationship between the two became more and more intimate, and Pang Xi was also reused by Liu Zhang.

When Zhang Lu seized Hanzhong and became independent, Pang Xi was appointed as the Taishou of Bajun, and repeatedly attacked Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, but was broken by Zhang Lu.

Later, Pang Xi raised many warriors at home, and Liu Zhang became suspicious of him.

Since Liu Zhang was suspicious of Pang Xi, he naturally tried every means to take away his position as the Taishou of Ba County. At the beginning, he divided the vast Ba County into three, but it did not weaken Pang Xi's power.

When Yan Yan served as the Taishou of Ba County and guarded against the Hanzhong Army in the north, in order to enhance the strength of Ba County, Liu Zhang once again divided Yongning County under the rule of Ba County.

Having lost his position as Taishou, Pang Xi was naturally indignant in his heart.

From time to time, Meng Da was also a native of Dongzhou, and after learning Pang Xi's thoughts, he met with Pang Xi and tried his best to persuade him to cooperate with the outside and lead the Chinese army into Ba County.

Pang Xi thought about it again and again, thinking that Liu Zhang is now reusing the local clan of Yizhou and gradually alienating the native clan of Dongzhou, and many people are already dissatisfied.

In addition, Liu Zhang is not the master of the Ming, and the general Chen Xu has the ambition to swallow the universe, and it must be a great achievement to lead Chen Xu into Ba County, so Pang Xi and Meng Da conspired to sacrifice Ba County.

However, it is said that since Xu Huang became the Taishou of Hanzhong, he did not dare to slack off every day, and trained soldiers while rectifying internal affairs.

Not only that, he has always been well aware of the situation in Ba County, and is preparing for an attack on the entire Yizhou in the future.

Ten days ago, Meng Da suddenly came to Hanzhong to meet Xu Huang and told him in detail about Pang Xi's desire to surrender. Xu Huang was overjoyed when he heard this, so he summoned Dong Zhao and Yan Pu to discuss the matter of marching into Ba County.

Dong Zhao said: "Attacking Yizhou is not trivial, the general should report to the lord first, and then send troops?" ”

Yan Pu retorted: "The situation in the world is changing rapidly, and the fighter plane is fleeting, if you don't send troops now, what if the matter leaks out?" ”

"The general should act expediently when he is outside, and the general should raise troops to seize Ba County while hastening his horse and whipping up the situation here to report to the lord."

Meng Da also persuaded: "Liu Zhang is not the master of Ming, and people with lofty ideals in Shu are all eager for the arrival of the general." The people of Dongzhou in Ba County have already begun to connect in tandem, as long as the general leads the troops south, the battle of Ba County can be decided. ”

"If the general hesitates at this time, when the Yan Yan Pifu senses the problem, it will be very difficult to capture Ba County. When the judgment continues to be chaotic, please also ask the general to send troops early. ”

Xu Huang thought about it for a long time, and then he adopted Yan Pu's strategy, and sent troops to attack Bajun on the one hand, and sent people to report to Pusaka on the other.

Xu Huang guarded Hanzhong with a long history of Dong Zhao, but he himself took Yan Pu and 50,000 elite soldiers and horses to kill Pemba County in the starry night.

However, it was said that Yan Yan was a famous general in Shu, loyal and unparalleled, brave, and deeply loved by the soldiers. Before Liu Zhang sent Yan Yan to serve as the Taishou of Bajun, he warned him to be careful of Pang Xi.

Therefore, after coming to Ba County to take up his post, Yan Yan reorganized his armaments on the one hand and firmly held the military power in his own hands, but on the other hand, he was also secretly guarding against Pang Xi.

Some time ago, the eyeliner who was monitoring Pang Xi suddenly came to report, saying that this person and many generals from Dongzhou suddenly had a very close relationship within a few days.

Not only that, Pang Xi also visited many Dongzhou scholars.

After learning the news, Yan Yan immediately felt a pang in his heart, he secretly invited a few generals who were visited by Pang Xi, and under coercion and temptation, he knew that Pang Xi intended to dedicate Ba Jun to Chen Xu.

Hearing that Meng Da had gone to Hanzhong, Yan Yan hurriedly asked people to block the city, and then captured Pang Xi and his comrades.

After the torture, Pang Xi confessed to what he had done, Yan Yan was immediately shocked and angry, and ordered the soldiers to behead Pang Xi and his comrades, and wanted to raise troops to the north to stop Xu Huang from going south.

At that time, a person hurriedly came out of the class and said: "The general must not be so anxious, if he has a plan, he will definitely kill Xu Huang and return defeated, and he will not dare to covet the land of Bajun again." ”

Yan Yan hurriedly looked up, only to find that the person who spoke was his friend Qin Mi. Although Yan Yan is only a martial artist, he is also from a large family, so he can associate with scribes.

Qin Mi was very talented when he was young, and he was famous in the state and county, and the governor of the state and county repeatedly recruited him, but he could not refuse.

The reason why Qin Mi appeared in Bajun this time was just to visit his friend Yan Yan, but he didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing.

Yan Yan saw that the person who spoke was Qin Mi, his old friend, and he was immediately overjoyed.

He knew that Qin Mi was talented, and since Qin Mi said that there was a way to break the enemy, there would be no mistake, so he asked Qin Mi for advice.

Qin Mi came to Yan Yan's side and whispered, "The general can be like this, like this." ”

The more Yan Yan listened, the more happy he became, and finally stroked his palm and laughed and said, "If you can kill Xu Huang this time, Zi Yi should be the first to do it!" ”
