Chapter Ninety-Seven: The One Who Seeks a Thousand Miles
Yan Dong was assassinated!
This is not a trivial matter for the entire Duliao General Department, and some people know that Yanbei values his younger brother who is in charge of Lelang County more than his life; And some people don't know, but they will soon know. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
More than 7,000 soldiers and horses traveled through Liaoxi County, which was long and narrow, and even surpassed the Koji Yibu on the road, which had been two days earlier, and arrived at Liaodong County.
From the right Beiping to Liaodong County, the seven days of the double road, when the vanguard elite cavalry arrived, the rear infantry only walked to the Linyu City Pass, biting the tail of the Yibu and walking.
For a whole year, the people of Youzhou intermittently heard the news that the general Duliao was in the Central Plains, but they gradually forgot his might...... This time, more than 10,000 soldiers and horses roared across the border, and every county they passed through did not dare to slack off.
Returning to Youzhou from this Liaodong hero means that the tranquility of Youzhou will be broken again.
"Gongyu, how is Saburo?"
As soon as he saw the frustration of the general driving the camp on the bank of the Liaoshui River, Yanbei's first sentence was like this, which made the slightly happy Taishou honor guard queue dare not take a breath.
"Saburo is fine, he was injured in the abdomen by the assassin and lay on the couch to recuperate." Fu Zhu had long expected that Yan Bei would ask such a sentence, nodded and replied: "The three counties have summoned all the medical craftsmen to send to Xuansu, and the son has stationed a Qu sergeant in the Taishou Mansion of Wang Xiancheng, and the birds will not pass, rest assured." ”
Yan Bei frowned and walked towards Xiangping City on foot, behind him Dian Wei led the horse, Gao Lan Zhao Yun returned the soldiers and horses to the camp, Lu Zhi who was lying in the car and Chen Qun who was standing under the car marched slowly, Guo Jia and Xun Yue and other Yingchuan staff members each looked at Liaodong, a land unknown to them.
"Who sent the assassins?"
Hearing that Yan Dong's life was fine, Yan Bei's heart was slightly relieved, but his anger did not weaken by half a point, and his fists clenched seemed to be on the verge of anger at any time. The angry and restrained Yanbei was even more terrifying, because the young general Duliao rarely had difficulty controlling his temperament, and even many of his subordinates had never seen Yanbei angry.
"There are a lot of people outside, so let's go to the county government first."
Hearing Yan Bei say this, Fu Zhu nodded and stopped speaking, but asked Yan Bei about the identity of the staff from the Central Plains behind him, and greeted them one after another, and then the group went to Xiangping County Mansion.
To the county government, except for the old and weak Lu Zhi sent back to the old house for peace, everyone sat in columns, and Yan Beiyu asked slowly: "Who sent someone to hurt San Lang, Liaoxi Gongsun, Yuyang Wang Song, and Goguryeo?" Or Samhan south of Lelang...... Or Zhang Junyi? ”
Yan Bei thought a little too much, the first few either had personal enmity or Dongyi, and they all had motives to assassinate Yan Dong. But if it's an open-jaw faction, it's much more terrifying. That would show that Yanbei's seemingly stable dominance in the three counties of Youdong was actually shaky.
"It's not a jaw, although he is a little slippery, he won't dare to harm Yandong." Fearing that anger would weaken Yan Bei's judgment, he hurriedly defended Zhang Jaw, and then said slowly: "The assassin has a Liaoxi accent, although he doesn't say a word, but eighty percent of them are dead soldiers sent by the Gongsun clan. ”
Yan Bei nodded, he had already guessed in his heart about the power of sending assassins, and Gongsun of Liaoxi was not as he expected, as expected, he said confidently: "Gongsun wants to assassinate San Lang, it is reasonable to say, how much courage is there in the end." ”
In fact, whether there is an assassination of Yan Dong this time or not, the result is the same, it is nothing more than sooner or later. They had joined forces with Gongsun Du to attack Liaodong, no matter who they were...... Yanbei will not let them go this time.
It's just that they attacked Yan Dong and chose the wrong time.
"Give the order to go down, let the soldiers rest for a month, and prepare to send troops." Yan Bei played with the rabbit pen on the desk lightly, and slowly shook his head and said, "Gonghe, why did you tell the news so late?" ”
In his opinion, the most appropriate time should be to get such news when the soldiers and horses passed through Liaoxi County, and directly send troops to slaughter the branch city...... Once.
"The lord is a little restless, Xuansu and Lelang are still unstable, Dongyi is restricted, and the soldiers are tired." What he was most afraid of was that Yanbei would easily talk about war, and hurriedly said: "Even if you attack Liaoxi, you must make a name, don't worry about Goguryeo, otherwise the defense will be unstable and there may be a big disaster." ”
"Since my brother died, my two brothers have relied on each other, and the soldiers of Zhongshan Lieutenant Pershing insulted San Lang under Yan's Wu in Zhuo County, Yan was not impulsive, and only six months later put Pershing's hand under Zhen's Wutang." Yan Bei said slowly, raised his eyebrows and looked at the frustrated teacher, gritted his teeth with hatred and said: "Now that San Lang has been assassinated, you are frustrated and want me to be restless, I will definitely listen to you!" ”
"I want to protect the three counties, you said that you want to ease relations with Dongyi, Dashan!" Yan Bei knocked a few times with his hand, raised a finger and said: "In this western expedition, the heroes of the Kanto region are separated from each other, and they are deeply unfathomable. Saburo is now lying on the couch, I am going to see him, and the soldiers need to rest. ”
"There is a debtor and a master, and the accounts of the Gongsun clan should be settled, Yan is not going to kill any person or attack which city. The capture of Liaoxi and Yuyang is to open up the road to the west, and Liaodong cannot be in a safe corner, and the Yanzi flag must be planted in the north of the Central Plains; Capture the Gongsun family, this is a private matter of Yan, I hope that all the gentlemen will plan together, don't get away with one person...... Su Li made a great effort for Liaodong and sent someone to invite him to come, and Yan wanted to thank him in person. There is also Wuhuan Qiu Liju, who was also invited. ”
"Dongyi, send someone to invite the Fuyu envoy to come, and in a few days Yan wants to see the prince of the world, and then give gifts to the two countries. But when the matter of Liaoxi was settled, he sent troops to the east. ”
Yan Bei explained these matters one by one with a calm face and a normal tone, looked around at everyone's faces, and finally said to Fu Zhu: "In addition, the assassin who injured Yan's brother should be taken care of and not harm his life." He is a righteous man, a dead man, loyal to the Gongsun clan...... I want him to see with his own eyes how Yan killed the Gongsun clan! Then hang them all together on the Lingzhi City to set an example! ”
"All the princes here, when a certain one returns, the princes have come up with a strategy to capture Liaoxi County."
After saying that, Yan Bei walked to the hall and saluted everyone, turned around and walked out of the county government with firm steps.
He's going to Lelang County, and he really can't wait for a moment!
At this moment, Yan Bei's mood was actually extremely unstable, so he was unwilling to make any decisions, leaving the staff of the entire county government to work hard to plan a big strategic plan, while he took Dian Wei Jiang Jin and a small number of accompanying cavalry all the way to the direction of Lelang County.
Although Jiang Jin couldn't interject when the county government was deliberating, it was different when he walked on the way to Lelang, and he asked Yanbei: "Why don't we attack Liaoxi now?" Let those scholars discuss in the county government, and you can negotiate a good time? ”
In Jiang Jin's opinion, now is a good time to attack Liaoxi! In fact, in his eyes, there has never been a bad time, attacking Linjun to start the war, which is a good time for three hundred days all year round, except for the winter that is too cold!
"The war has begun, it's just that we don't send troops." Yan Bei's tone was brisk, but his expression was not relaxed, "Now send troops to attack, not to mention the constraints in the east, the Gongsun clan will raise troops to take precautions, and the soldiers will fight from Yangle to Lingzhi, pull out the six cities and may not reap all their credit, if the Gongsun clan flees south, it will be too powerful." Since Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao have been brought to war, it is not too late to attack Liaoxi after the two of them fight fiercely. ”
"But isn't it too late? San Lang was stabbed, but we waited but did not move, what kind of reason is this? As soon as Jiang Jin heard that Yanbei actually planned to wait for Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao to start a war and then attack Liaoxi, he hurriedly said: "If you give me a soldier and horse, Gongsun Fan and Gongsun Yue will be captured for you!" ”
"The two sons of the Gongsun family are just thieves, one can be captured and the other can be captured. However, the attack on Liaoxi will make Bogui go north, and Jizhou will be unstoppable for Yuan Shao's gains. Yan Bei shook his head, although he was angry in his heart, he knew that he could only wait, "I know what you think in your heart, it is nothing more than to attack Liaoxi first, and then destroy Bogui, and then wave your army south to suppress the original, and finally you can capture Jizhou." But what is the innocent of the soldiers? They followed Yan to live, not to die. ”
Jiang Jin was cowardly and speechless, Yan Bei said what he thought, but it was just a fight, who was the Youzhou man afraid of? It's a big deal, fight one battle at a time, and try to be happy!
Ma Luanling sounded crisply on the horse's neck, Jiang Jin grabbed his mane a little irritably, glanced at Yan Bei and said, "Erlang, you have changed again." ”
How many times has Yanbei changed? During the Yellow Turban, they retreated from Jizhou to Youzhou, and on the way to flee thousands of miles, Yanbei had the courage to take them to escape the search of the Han army again and again. Later, when these wild dogs returned to the flock, Yanbei took them to the side of the disaster like a brutal murderer, it was not important, it was important to bring them to survive.
When they all became murderers, Yanbei had a well-dressed scholar again, but at that time, arrogance was still everywhere in him. The closest brother to Yanbei, Jiang Jin could feel that the direction of Yanbei's thinking about things was different from that of these fighting men.
Later, they went through several twists and turns, from Youzhou to Jizhou, from Saiwai to Liaodong...... But any change in Yanbei was useless, and now Jiang Jin felt it obviously.
Yanbei is still cunning and fierce, but he is thinking more and more.
If it was in the past, when his younger brother was assassinated, Yanbei would definitely not hesitate to gather troops and horses to break off with the enemy, even if the fish died and the net was broken.
What Yanbei is best at is precisely the fish dying and the net is broken!
But what is it now? The fish will die, but not only will the net not break, but it will also easily cage some kings and shrimp and crabs.
"Whoever seeks a hundred miles will be hindered by a thousand miles." When Yan Bei heard Jiang Jin say that he had changed, he felt a little strange in his heart, but he was not surprised, but he was a little complacent, and said casually: "Haven't you always been crowned like a king?" Cunning is always more powerful than bravery...... I have arranged for Youzhou merchants to buy grain in western Liaoning, and sent people to mix into the five cities outside the Lingzhi branch in western Liaoning, and by the end of the year, there will be a caravan of 1,000 Youzhou veterans to assemble in Yuyang County to cut off the retreat of the two sons of Gongsun. Yan sent troops not to attack, but to win. ”
"When the Gongsun clan knew that Liaodong had sent troops and horses to prepare to gather men to resist stubbornly, no matter how many elite soldiers and strong soldiers could not win, because whichever city they were guarding would open the gate of that city for Yan. When they tried to flee south, the back road was cut off...... Before the soldiers and horses could engage the battle, they had already lost. Yan Bei's body slowly rose and fell with the horse's hooves, and he stretched out his hand to slowly grasp it.
"When this happens, we will have at least five counties of land in our hands, whether it is Jizhou or Dongyi, we can only be pressed by Yan!"
