Chapter 52: Hatred and Thanks
Going north, or going south?
This choice made Yan Bei unwilling to do it again in this life and this life.
For a long time, Yanbei thought that the north would not change, because he had come from the north step by step, and the north was his hometown and his foundation. But the successive victories for a long time made him forget that the Han people in the north have always had a powerful enemy - Xianbei.
It's just that after the death of Tanshi Huai, the Han people forgot the fear that the Xianbei people brought them in the past, but there is always a law that will never change among all the races in the world. Han Chinese, Xiongnu, Xianbei, Goguryeo, and even the Japanese people who inhabited the islands...... No race in this world is weak, and the offensive and defensive positions are easy to attack and defend overnight, and the so-called strong is only relative.
They all walk upright, stand tall in the world, grovel in one life, grovel in all eternity, and always stand up when they seize the opportunity.
The so-called elimination of evil, good and evil are relative, to put it bluntly, it is just either me or the enemy.
The news of Xianbei's entry into the north of Kou made Yanbei a little scrambling. Tens of thousands of Xianbei troops are like chicken ribs, and there is no point in going north, but they cannot be completely ignored, because the grain route for Jizhou is in Youzhou; If the army goes north, there will be no time to enter Qingzhou in the south.
Yuan Shao only sent a few insignificant lobbyists, but he made the Yan clan like a man, which was more powerful than sending a large army north.
And on this matter that made it difficult for Yanbei to make up his mind, the staff of the former general's mansion unexpectedly spoke in unison - everyone thought that the offensive against the Yuan clan in Qingzhou should be slowed down, march north, and meet Xianbei on the grassland!
Sun Zong and others in the shogunate were all from Liaodong, as well as those Youzhou staff, and Yanbei was reluctant to ask their opinions on this matter, because he thought that the hometown of these staff members was in Youzhou, and his thinking would naturally be biased. What he valued most was Yingchuan's staff Guo Jia and Jizhou's indispensable frustration.
These three people, regardless of their background, have a much stronger vision of the overall situation than everyone else.
But the three of them also thought that Yanbei should go north.
Unexpected.
In the end, it was Guo Jia who said what everyone thought, "At present, Cao Cao in Yanzhou is restrained by Lu Bu, and Yuan Shao in Qingzhou is unable to go north, so he can't ask for a respite, so he won't ask for it this year, and he can ask for it again next year." This year, it will go south, and it will go south again in the next year. ”
Yan Bei's hatred for the Xianbei people outside the Saiwai immediately surpassed all the hateful people in the world.
He really didn't want to go to the north to find trouble with those foreigners, which was probably the most thankless thing.
"Is there any way to let those northern captives roll back to the grassland, my Yan Zhongqing fart is all gold and silver treasures, and I can fight with them?" Yan Bei pursed his eyes and clutched the jade axe with some annoyance, "It's really annoying!" ”
Tian Feng of Jizhou Mansion was not there, and he was choked by Yan Bei's metaphor and couldn't speak, but Guo Jia stroked his palms and laughed, and then leaned over and said to Yan Bei: "General, it is precisely because of the gold and silver treasures in the border areas of Ji that Xianbei covets it, otherwise the Yuan Clan's lobbyists alone can say that the alien race will attack on a large scale?" ”
Guo Jia smiled disdainfully, this world is bustling with all the words, and it is not a mission that can be achieved by just a lobbyist, and waved his hand awe-inspiringly: "Youzhou has the grain and grass needed to support Jizhou for many years of war, and it is more suitable for survival than outside the Saiwai, there are war horses and armor, not to mention that the wealth of tribute from all sides is like a mountain." The reason why they are moved by lobbyists is because they have already harmed my heart! At present, we are waiting for the enemy to be the first, driving away the alien race for thousands of miles, hanging the head of Mijia on the top of Yecheng, and first defending Huo's exploits, just waiting for the general to explore the bag and take things! ”
"You don't have to persuade me, all the people under Youzhou are Yan's people, and Yan will not let the aliens go south. What's more, Yan has never been a temperament that everyone can handle. Yan Bei waved his hand, and the irritable look on his face still did not diminish. What annoyed him the most was not the question of whether to fight or win or lose, but the situation of not wanting to be led by Yuan's nose and having to be distracted to face Xianbei, "Micah is old and confused, he actually dares to listen to the slanderous rumors of Yuan's lobbyists to rob Yan's things, doesn't he know what Yan does?" ”
Xianbei people, Wuhuan people, Goguryeo people and Han people, he has never been the only one who robbed others, when did anyone dare to rob his things.
Yan Zhongqing is the most powerful horse bandit, robber, and bandit in the north of the Han Dynasty and even in the whole world!
He may not do well as a prince, but if he Yan Zhongqing wants to be a horse bandit, Guo Aduo, the horse thief who is in charge of the government in the Central Plains, can only stand aside!
"The mines in Youzhou still need Lifu, and the horse farms in various places also need to be replenished, this year I want to swallow Micah alive, and dare to obey Yuan's demagogy to gather soldiers and horses of the Xianbei tribe without leaving a single one, disturbing Yan's plan to woo Qing, none of them will pass!" Yan Bei waved his hand and slapped it on the desk, and said: "Pass the order on my behalf, General Tian will lead the water army to attack the coast of Qingzhou from April to October, and hold the Yellow River so that the Yuan family will not be at peace; General Gao guarded the Bohai Sea and besieged Nanpi, the seven thousand guards Nanpi Zhengnan, unless I kill myself, I want to live; General Koji guarded Qinghe Kingdom and Wei County to prepare for the Yanzhou War. Ren Fugong and Jizhou don't drive, supervise the military and political affairs of Jizhou...... Gong and, Yu Gong is still the pastor of Jizhou in the end, if it is a matter of Wei County, it is still a prophet who will meet him. ”
He was once again given the task of overseer, and every time Yan Bei left the ruling center for several years, he handed over such a great task to himself, he had long been accustomed to such a mission, and immediately nodded and said: "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will obey orders." If Lu Bu's army is defeated and retreats, will we respond or cut it off? ”
"You can take the idea, in my opinion, if Lu Bu is defeated and retreats, his troops are within 3,000, you can lend Liyang to garrison him, if it is above 3,000, let General Koji take advantage of his crossing of the river to intercept Cao Cao." Speaking of this, Yanbei suddenly smiled and said: "If he only has one cadre left, the school family will flee to Jizhou, and he can be taken to Yecheng to raise." ”
Nodding his head, the so-called raising is just a nice statement, but in fact it is not house arrest. Speaking of this, he also smiled, he remembered the scene when he was under house arrest in Handan City by Yanbei in the early years.
To be honest, no one in the two states of Youji really regards Lu Bu as a prince, he is nothing more than a rebel army leader like Yang Feng and others, and it is difficult to compare with Yanbei. Sometimes the most ridiculous thing about people is that they can't figure out where they should be.
"Talk to Han Zhoumu, he is engaged in Tian Yuanhao borrowed me and was engaged in the shogunate. and Feng Xiao also went to the north with me, and there will be a battle of the Xianbei people for a while. Yan Bei turned his head to look at Fu Zhu again, and explained: "If the imperial court moves east to Luoyang, the matter will be handed over to you." I can't let them starve to death, and I can't hold on, let the Manchu civil and military hate me, read me, beg me, and thank me! ”
