Chapter 104: Bingfu'an City
Who is Yanbei?
It was a thief who ran to the tribe of the Saiwaihu people at the age of thirteen or fourteen to kill people and steal horses, and a man who followed his brother to Jizhou to survive the rebellion of the great sage and good teacher in order to get a weak crown.

It is the rebel general of the Nineteen Cavalry who dared to rob and assassinate the history, the Hundred Cavalry deceived the city and killed the county honor, and the Thousand Tribes of the Lower Prefecture in March. Rampant in Jizhou, so that 100,000 Wuhuan did not dare to get involved in the rebellious counties under his rule, and instead made a detour to the East China Sea to rob the rebel leaders of Qingxu.
Although his life is short, there are too many times to be unbeatable.
When have you ever suffered such a big loss?
Although Yan Bei was already furious, he couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness in his heart. This pale feeling was not because of Meng Yi or those heroes who betrayed him, but because he sensed that he was different.
The path I walked was different from what I used to be.
In the past, no matter what he did, he stole horses and killed people with his brother on his head; cast the Yellow Turban to rebel, and there were great sages and mentors above; When he really took responsibility, he could only assassinate Tao Qian, but that time he chose to escape, went to Jizhou from Zhuo County, and defected to Wang Yi's brother Wang Zheng...... Later, when Jizhou rebelled, there was still Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju above him.
But this time, in Liaodong, there was no one on his head anymore.
Whether it is Meng Yi, Gongsun Zhan, Youzhou, Jizhou, or even the imperial court. What they know is Yanbei.
This gave him the feeling of being imprisoned in an indescribable way, because he was truly aware that he was breaking the rules of the world. What is Sky High Thick? That is the court of the world, these scholars who rule the world with the emperor.
What he is doing now is almost the enemy of the whole world.
The road ahead is difficult to move an inch.
Occupy the state and county, and the soldiers of the state and county will be like those poisonous snakes hidden in the woods, taking advantage of your weakness to take a bite. How hateful these people are! Hateful, right? It's hateful, just like Frustration said, no matter how hateful you are, you can't kill them all.
Because from the perspective of others, people are also right.
Killing 10,000 civilians will have a bad impact on uprooting a small clan.
This made Yan Bei, who was leading the troops south, feel anxious in his heart...... He has been fighting in Liaodong for more than a month, so the cavalry sent out to deliver the letter should have already handed over the letter to Liu Youzhou, right? Why hasn't there been any news yet!
In the past, Yanbei was humble and light, and he never thought about the general trend of the world. But now that he has come to this difficult place, he must think about those things that once seemed incomparably far away, and plan ahead to learn to take every step.
Now his strength is still too weak and too small to resist the rules of the world. And he has no means to undo the influence of those things in the past, so he can only go back to the old ways...... He was looking for a big tree to lean onto.
If he really wants to achieve great things, then he must wait patiently in the shade of the tree, waiting for the moment when the world will change.
And this towering tree that is enough to shelter him is Youzhou Mu Liu Yu!
Because Yan Bei could feel that if he didn't do this, he would become a stepping stone for others.
He doesn't believe it, he can't be a human being!
He doesn't believe that he was born worse than others!
He didn't believe it, this is his life to beat his mother's womb!
"Ordered the scouts to spread twenty miles south, and to return all the roads that could be passed by three thousand men and horses. All the departments should sharpen their knives, they all looked at the arrows behind them, sharpened Lao Tzu a little, and then sent a few bold and meticulous workers to Wenxian County, and found out to me what Meng Yipifu and those bastards wanted to do! ā
Yan Bei led the army all the way south to Anshi City and did not continue to the south, he held back his anger and waited for an encounter with Meng Yi to the north along the way, but he did not touch a single hair of Meng Yi's scouts until now, the situation was already obvious, Meng Yi did not plan to lead the troops north for the time being.
"You are familiar with the southeast of Liaodong, tell me about the terrain and situation here, and the strong forces that our army may encounter." The soldiers cut down trees in the south of Anshi City and set up a camp in the dense forest, Yan Bei gathered a few subordinates and asked Pan Ling, "You should know these things, right?" ā
Yanbei had lived in Liaodong for more than ten years, but he was a little younger at that time. Because Xiangping is located in the northernmost part of eastern Liaodong by the Great Wall of Saiwai in the north, even if you go out later, most of the cities in the north or in the east of Saiwai intersect with Lelang and Goguryeo, and you don't know much about Anshi City and Wencheng near the sea in the southeast of Liaodong.
But this new Pan Ling who defected to him is different, Wushan County is located by the sea, plus the hiding forest is the head of the bandits, and it circulates in the southern counties, Pan Ling should know these things.
Pan Ling is close to Yanbei in age, and admires Yanbei very much for leading the rebels to the north into Liaodong. ā
"Anshi City was not yet a county in the pre-Qin period, this is just a location outside the Great Wall to exchange markets with foreign people, and later it belonged to Liaodong County in the first Han Dynasty. Later, there was a period of time when Han and Goguryeo were fighting for each other, and now, Anseongseong is not a big county as you can see...... As for the surrounding terrain you asked, there are many mountains and small river valleys, and then there are dense wild forests, if you want to fight with Meng Yi in the south, then you should be here, the dense forests here are not easy to be detected by scouts, and there are only a few roads, as long as you surround Meng Yi, you can ambush him with only a bow and crossbow. ā
Yan Bei nodded, but what he was thinking about was something else. This Pan Ling is a native of Liaodong, and he knows enough about the south of Liaodong, and he can be reused in the future, but he still doesn't know how his temperament and talent are. On the other hand, if he wants to gain a foothold in Liaodong in the future, it is indispensable to reuse a group of local people in Liaodong, otherwise the people from Jizhou who came with him do not know enough about Liaodong.
This is also its own disadvantage.
"What about the scholars and heroes here?"
At the mention of this, Pan Ling burst out laughing, held his head high and said to Yanbei: "General, you are coming from Jizhou, but don't think that we have a great warrior clan and a strong man in Liaodong, there are only a few people in the whole Liaodong, if you can say that you can call it a strong man, there is a Tian family in Wen County, who started by drying salt and selling salt on the seaside, and has more than 2,000 tenants in his hands; Pingguo has a grandson, and Xiangping Gongsun has a close relative, and Liaoxi Gongsun is a distant relative, hey, this Liaodong and Liaoxi have a lot of surnames Gongsun, in fact, who knows who, their family has two Wu forts, in the past to transport wood to the state, there are thousands of people, but there must be a lot of guns and spears. ā
"Transporting wood?"
"Well, if you look at the surrounding wild forests, what can be used in the southeast of Liaoning is the fishing salt by the sea, the animal skins in the forest, and then there is the wood on the mountain, and the most of these forests is oak wood, which is a good material for making spears and spears and building houses and yards. And this thing is also the best material for making bow arms, and it's better than mulberry wood! ā
Yan Bei nodded expressionlessly, but his heart was full of joy. Although there are few people in Liaodong, it is rich in products! There are forests, beasts, fishing salt, and even when he was a child, he heard Wang Yi and his father say that at the foot of a thousand mountains in the southwest of Xiangping, sometimes pick up a few stones and go home, and the craftsman can make some iron by burning it himself.
All of a sudden, except for the fact that there were too few people, all the other things needed were all in full force!
Yanbei has a composition of his own in his mind, based on Liaodong, within three or five years, Goguryeo attacked Lelang County, and usurped Goguryeo and Lelang County for his own use, combining the power of the four counties, recruiting 40,000 soldiers and horses, and raising 20,000 elite soldiers...... Who in the north will dare to underestimate themselves at that time?
Merely...... The future is very bright, but the present is very bleak. Liaodong's Haoqiang and Meng Yi joined forces to stir up their own peace, and coupled with Gongsun Zhan, who was eyeing him in the west, he could be described as a great enemy!
At this moment, the horses in the camp galloped over, and the rider on the horse turned over and said to Yan Bei: "Report to the general, the scouts have found out that there are three roads from Wenxian County to the north, but they all need to pass through Anshi City. The west of Anshi is the main road, which is not far from here. There is also a difficult and dangerous road in the east of Anshi, between the two mountains, and the closest place between the two places is 30 miles away. ā
Yan Bei nodded, watching the scout leader draw the terrain on the land, with Anshi City as the center, there is a road in the east and west, but one is a road and the other is a dangerous road, it depends on which one Meng Yi will take.
"Pan Ling, give you 1,500 men and horses, maybe the commander?"
Since there are two roads, Yanbei alone lacks skills, and there are few cronies around him, so he has to place high hopes on the Youzhou warriors who have only served for a few days. It's just that he doesn't know if Pan Ling, a bandit who gathers in the mountains and forests with hundreds of people, can command 1,500 soldiers and horses.
Different from Yan Bei's worries, Pan Ling showed an extraordinarily useful expression when he heard this, and then folded his fists with a serious face, and said solemnly to Yan Bei: "Please give the general an order!" Pan led more than 1,000 troops from his headquarters and generals, and he took the order! ā
"Courage is commendable!" Yan Bei nodded, patted Pan Ling's shoulder and said: "In this case, I will allocate 1,000 of your men and horses to make up for you 1,500, and guard the dangerous road between the two mountains in the east of Anshi, if Meng Yi travels, he will quickly send someone to send a message to me to block their passage!" ā
"General Xie, my subordinates will die for the general, if you can't resist the enemy, please behead the general!"
"Good! In that case, lead your troops. ā
Yanbei waved his hand to signal Pan Ling to retreat, and then calculated the situation of the avenue, and selected more than 300 subordinates with fast legs and feet and strong endurance to carry five days of dry food between the two places as messengers, and he led more than 2,000 subordinates to set up camp and go to the west of Anshi City to explore the terrain near the avenue. At the same time, he sent a rider to report to the king of Xinchang and asked him to gather the people to prepare for the ten-day escort of grain and grass.
He wants to place ambush soldiers here and ambush Meng Yi, but he doesn't know what Meng Yi is going to do.
There are many mountains and forests in eastern Liaodong, there are not many places for the people to live in peace, and they are also located in the border areas with a sparse population, and even the county governance of Xiangping is not a large county of 10,000 households, and the counties under its jurisdiction are only a few thousand at most, and even a county composed of one or two thousand people. Even if Meng Yi is allowed to occupy Wen County, what can he do with the city of thousands of people?
Yanbei believed that Meng Yi would definitely lead his troops north. Even if it wasn't to defeat him, he had to plan to escape from Liaodong and join forces with Gongsun Zhan.
