Chapter 128: Where Did You Go?
In November, heavy snow spreads from north to south. The most intuitive feeling that time gives Yanbei, a man who was born in Liaodong and grew up in Liaodong, is that since he was born, the winter of the year has become colder and colder every year, so the most obvious impression of his hometown in his memory is always cold.
After the Yan army took Dongjun and followed the threat of Jiyin and even the Liang State, Chen Buyu's soldiers and horses finally received the order to shrink the defensive line, and their army retreated to the Juyang and Chengyang areas of Jiyin County.
Although the Yan army captured the city as quickly as possible, most of the city breaks within ten years, but the price is that most of the cities in hand have been smashed beyond recognition by stone cannons, and the Yan clan does not have enough influence to mobilize the people to build the city wall. Therefore, there are gaps in the cities where they camp their troops to shelter from the winter.
That's right, what is needed to call on the people to build the city wall is influence. Even if Yanbei has the power to command the world, there are still things he does not dare to do in this world - such as forcibly conscripting strong men to build city walls.
Yanzhou is the place where Cao Cao started, and the people here identify with Cao Cao, not to mention that the people in Yanzhou have a bit of a strange understanding of Yanbei. Whether it is the county lieutenant in the county or the village wild man, they all agree that wherever Yanbei enters, there will be a tragic slaughter, and even the people of Juyang think that Chengyang has been slaughtered, and the people of Chengyang also think that Juyang has been slaughtered...... Anmin's notice, I don't believe it at all.
Even half a month after Yanbei had been stationed in the city, the city was still closed to the doors, and the soldiers who patrolled the streets occasionally reported that in those closed doors, they could see the eyes of children with hatred and fear.
The reason for this result was because of the 60,000 people that Cao Cao recruited before the start of the war, that is, the tens of thousands of people who later died on the banks of Pushui due to Yan Zhi's attack. Cao Cao nominally played the role of Yan and Henan, but in fact there were not many counties under his rule, only a few counties. In order to conspire with Yuan Shao to attack Jizhou, he assigned the task of recruiting 60,000 people in six counties, and more than 1,400 people were requisitioned in Juyang County, Jiyin County.
It was a husband, a son, and a father, who died in Pushui.
"The city wall will not be repaired, and no matter how strong the young and strong are recruited, the city will have to be reversed. What's more, look at the city, where are there still young people who can build the city wall! Before saying this, Yanbei had already sent people to inspect the city for many days, and there was not one in the city of Juyang, leaving the widows and widows in the whole city lonely, "If there are young people, they hate Yan so much, how can they sit still and wait to die?" ”
"My lord, if you can't force the young and strong, let the soldiers repair it a little, and build a road through the gap in the city." Guo Jia has nothing to do about the hearts of the people in the city, and the hatred is too deep to be changed overnight, "Block the inner city, leave a two-foot path, and leave a two-foot gap on the right side of the road." ”
Bring sand to the beach!
Yan Bei was depressed enough, he didn't kill anyone in the whole war, but the people of Jiyin County seemed to blame him for all the debts. He didn't feel wronged, but he didn't feel comfortable in his heart, and at this time, Guo Jia's suggestion made him even more irritable, and said, "What's the use of this? ”
"Field battles are long, city battles are short. If the enemy attacks in the snow, if there is a defect, he will attack the defect, I am on top and the enemy is below, and my right is the enemy's left. Guo Jia said, this strategist who always coughed and showed a sick look actually held a bamboo slip and pretended to dance the sword, and said with a smile: "Wielding a sword on the right is better than swinging the sword on the left." ”
Yan Bei thought about it, "It seems that this is indeed the truth, you tell Wei Xu, let his subordinates use the earthwork to make a shape first, and try it." If it is possible, the city will be repaired according to this. ”
said that bad things came one after another on Cao Cao's side, but in fact, Yanbei didn't feel that he was any better. Almost at the same time, in the winter of the second year of Xinghe, the princes of all walks of life were not happy. Yuan Shao launched a war this year in order to recover the lost land, and then lost more land, died and lost a son, the white-haired people sent the black-haired people, retreated again and again on the battlefield, and were beaten by Lu Yi and almost snailed into the Langya country of Xuzhou.
Cao Cao didn't mention it, life and death are at stake, and his own territory doesn't count.
Yanbei is also worried about losing the most important thing. His foundation is loyal to his soldiers and horses, the Yulin Cavalry formerly known as the Yanzhao Samurai, and the huge hearts of the people in the world. Sent Dian Wei 3,000 horsemen, now more than 200 back to the camp, although the Yulin cavalry who fled back said that Dian Wei captured Chen Wang Liu Pet, and also killed several princes, but the dispersed Yulin cavalry is also very bad for Yanbei.
The point is that Dian Wei hasn't come back yet!
On the other hand, in the hearts of the people, Yanbei was subjected to unprecedented resistance in Yanzhou, and it was even more difficult to rule Yanzhou in his heart than to rule Goguryeo!
He saw people as his people, and people saw him as enemies, which made him worry about what he would gain from this war. got a Yanzhou where the whole people rebelled against him, and he was even worried that the Taishou and the state pastor sent in the future would not be killed by the officials!
"King, King! Captain Pawn is back! ”
Yan Bei sat up from the couch at once, walked two steps quickly, and then turned back and put on a fox fur, at this time Dian Wei had already walked to the door, bowed down and said loudly: "King, my subordinates are back." ”
"Come on in!" Yan Bei put on his robe and saw Dian Wei and Sun Zong worshipping on the ground in disarray, and hurriedly dragged the two of them and said in a loud voice: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back, Yan is afraid that you won't be able to come back, let's not do these things in the future, just the alliance of kings, what can we do if we fight with them!" ”
Yanbei is not pretending, he is really distressed. There are only two jujubes left in the three thousand feather forest horses, which are the most loyal to his army, and if you don't say it, it's gone.
"Please punish the king, and his subordinates will act unfavorably."
After Dian Wei entered the room, he bowed down again, and said to Yanbei: "My subordinates captured Chen Wang Liu Pet, but I had no choice but to ...... halfway."
As soon as Yan Bei heard Dian Wei mention Liu Pet, he hurriedly waved his hand, he hadn't seen Liu Pet yet, and he thought that most of them were robbed or run away halfway. The lost can't be recovered, but he can't chill the heart of the strong man who went to death, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, Liu Pet ran away, Yan Mou defeated him on the battle formation sooner or later, you don't have to blame yourself, this is no way." ”
Dian Wei's face turned red, but because Yanbei was the sovereign, he couldn't interrupt his words, so he finally waited for Yanbei to finish speaking, but the conversation was picked up by Sun Zong, who was traveling with him.
"Where does the lord want to go, where can Liu Pet run, Dianjun means." This time it was finally Dian Wei's turn, this majestic Chen Liuhan bowed his head and said cowardly: "Dian doesn't know the severity, and the king of Chen ...... Killed. ”
Killed? That's a prince of the Liu clan who is known for his bravery and good shooting, and you are so lightly beaten to death like pinching a chick?
Yan Bei looked at Dian Wei fixedly.
