Chapter 2: Sun Wentai's Death
How many orphans are there in Liaodong?
Hundreds and thousands have long been uncountable. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info The parents of those children have left due to illness, or the collapse of the house by the heavy snow, and the heavy rain has washed away the house, and the life is difficult and unclothed. If you are older, you can still go outside the city and wait for others to give alms, and try to save your life; If you are young and have no ability to survive, you will only have to wait for death.
But Yanbei didn't let them die, and sent Sun Qing to take scouts around to collect orphans, regardless of size and gender, and raise them in Xiaosun, who was not far from Yanbei's mansion outside the city. Send a gentleman who can enlighten them and an old soldier who is good at using weapons, and teach them how to save their lives.
Orphans are clean blank paper, Yan Bei doesn't have too far-reaching ideas, but he just thinks that these orphans may be able to escort his unborn children in the future.
"General, there's news from the Central Plains!"
In the winter snow, the three counties of Youdong are like blind men, and they have lost the ability to control the huge intelligence of the entire north, which is unsettling. And when the roads are reopened, it is undoubtedly exciting when the Liaodong envoys, who are merchants or travelers, gather information back on the desk.
This winter, there is no bad news for Liaodong County!
Fu Zhu brought a whole car to visit Yanbei, accompanied by Guo Jia, Xu Shu, and Shi Tao as staff members.
Guo Jia is still a staff member by Yanbei's side, and Xu Shu and Shi Tao, in accordance with the wishes of the two of them, Xu Shu handled government affairs under Fu Zhi, and Shi Tao took over as the chief of Xiangping County...... The two of them have good knowledge, and even if they often go to Liaodong Academy to study on weekdays, they also handle government affairs well.
Speaking of which, Guo Jia is really a very interesting person.
There are some people in this world who can do things well diligently, and they are virtuous; But some people are idle all day long, but they can also get things done well, and they are wise.
Guo Jia, apparently the latter.
After arriving in Liaodong, Yanbei prepared a quiet house for him in Duowenli, thinking that this Yingchuan scholar should like such a place with a strong learning style. After not living for a few days, Guo Jia confessed to Yanbei, and with a little reward from his time in the Central Plains, he purchased a map in the west of Xiangping City and built a house.
You are right, the time when Guo Jia purchased the land was after they agreed on the affairs of the coming year in the county government and decided to build a Lefu in the west of the city. And Guo Jia bought the house at a very cheap price, which is next door to the established Yuefu.
The west of the city will be a downtown in the future, and Yuefu will be a gathering place for people and musicians in the future...... Guo Jia lives next door, but it is close to the water. Later, Yanbei sent someone to ask Guo Jia why he wanted to buy a house in that place, and Guo Jia said that in the future, all the things and people he was interested in would gather in the west of the city.
Talented and beautiful, happy people, noisy cities, and secluded wine.
Yan Bei pondered that it was time to give Guo Jia a serious official position, and it should be the kind of official position with a lot of money, few stewards, and leisure.
"What's the news?"
When Fu Zhu and others visited, Yanbei was sneaking Goguryeo Hou in the front yard, and the dog grew up fast, which was only four months old, and it was almost two feet long.
Yanbei let the Goguryeo Marquis run around the corridor by himself, and led everyone to the spacious main hall to sit down, and said in frustration: "Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao, there is a fight!" ”
"Oh?" Yan Bei was also absolutely concerned about this matter, and pulled a book to read it line by line, his face became more and more joyful, and he muttered: "You handed it over a year ago?" In this way, Yan Liang's skills are not bad, and he can actually make a draw with Gongsun Zhan, oh, stay away from him and have this Chun Yuqiong as a reinforcement. ”
Years ago, Gongsun Chan moved northeast from the Qinghe Kingdom, occupied dangerous checkpoints in various places, and engaged in a battle near Xiuxian in the southwest of Bohai County, with casualties, and then spent the entire winter in a long standoff.
By the beginning of this year's spring, although the two sides have not yet fought, the situation has changed significantly. First of all, Han Fu seems to have received the hostage and protection of Gongsun Zhan, and Jizhou began to send grain and grass to Qinghe State; Guan Jing led the army into Anping State, and Liu Bei, the assassin of Qingzhou on the other side, also responded to Gongsun Zan and went north to create pressure for Yuan Shao.
This is exactly the situation that Yanbei wants, a reckless Gongsun Zhan is much easier to deal with than Yuan Shao, who has experienced several coups and is well versed in governance.
"Looking at it like this, Yuan Shao is afraid that he will lose this year, right?" Yan Bei had a big smile on his face, raised his hand and knocked the case on the armrest of the couch, and laughed loudly: "If Gongsun Yue leads his troops south at this time, Yuan Benchu will die in an instant...... It's not good, you can't let Gongsun Vietnam go down! ”
Yan Beizheng was happy, and suddenly thought that if Gongsun Yue left this time, he didn't know if he could still catch this enemy who hurt San Lang, and was about to get up and plan, but he saw Guo Jia waving his hand and smiled: "Don't worry, the general has already mentioned that the general has done a good job in this matter, and the state government will not allow Gongsun Yue to form a private army." ”
This is the most interesting thing, although Gongsun Yue has the official position of a lieutenant under General Fenwu, he still has to act in Youzhou after all, and he is controlled by Liu Yu. Looking at the wooden card handed over by Guo Jia, Yan Bei's expression was relaxed.
Gongsun Yue only had the right to recruit and train troops, but he could not command soldiers and horses to leave Liaoxi...... Unless he wanted to tear his face with the state capital, the checkpoints set up at the county boundary of Tingli County would not allow his army to pass.
But even if he tears his face, the Youzhou soldiers will still attack him, the Xian Yu brothers, who have been in charge of the Youzhou soldiers for several years, are not vegetarians, they are loyal to Youzhou and loyal to the imperial court, if Gongsun Yue does not respect the order, I am afraid that Yanbei will not have to make any moves, and they will take the lead in attacking.
"The conflict between Gongsun and Yuan is a good opportunity for us." Several people saw the fire in Yan Bei's eyes, "Prepare the grain and grass, let's take Liaoxi first, and take the head of the Gongsun brothers!" ”
Fu Zhu nodded and said: "The Gongsun clan has more than 3,000 soldiers and horses in western Liaoxi, scattered all over the county, if it is recruited in wartime, the big clan that is good friends with its clan can also provide more than 2,000 soldiers for it, which is about the entire combat power of the Gongsun clan." ”
"The family soldiers of the four clans in Liaoxi are not worried, the old soldiers they have accumulated for more than ten years were destroyed in the battle of Yangle a few years ago, even if they are asked to gather two thousand more people for Gongsun Yue, they are just new pawns." Yan Bei raised his palm and slowly flipped it down and said, "A battle of Keke!" ”
It is difficult for new soldiers to fight tough battles, and the sergeants of Yanbei are most familiar with the wave war, not to mention the use of the number of battle formations, it is a simple confrontation between the two armies, the Liaodong Army casually took out a battalion, and the Liaoxi Army was victorious and undefeated!
"Lord, and Dongyi. When Goguryeo and Buyeo sent envoys to Xiangping, the two countries started another war in the Liaoshan area......" Before he finished speaking, Yanbei suddenly raised his head and asked: "Who sent this news, Sun Wentai is dead?" ”
The envoy of the Central Plains sent a message that in the autumn of last year, Sun Jianke went to Jingzhou after establishing Yuzhou, and as the vanguard general of Yuan Shu's army, he went south to attack Liu Biao, the imperial court of Jingnan, and Liu Biao sent Huang Zu to meet between Fan and Deng. In several battles, Sun Jian defeated Huang Zu, and then commanded soldiers and horses to cross the Han River and besiege Xiangyang. Liu Biao did not dare to go out of the city to face the battle, so he sent Huang Zu out of the city at night to recruit troops, and fought again under the city of Xiangyang, but ended in the defeat of Huang Zu's army again and fled to Da Xian Mountain.
has won several big victories, and regarded Jingzhou as a no-man's land, how martial it is.
In the middle of the Da Xian Mountain, Sun Jian took the lead in pursuit, and died in the dark arrow shot by the soldier Huang Zu in the forest...... Sun Wentai, the world's first fierce general, died in the barren mountains and forests.
"How ironic?" Yanbei's mood is extremely complicated, such a person with a strong temperament died at the hands of the dark arrow, "I said goodbye to Wentai, see you again in three or five years, I thought it would be difficult to see each other again, but I never thought about it, but it was goodbye!" ”
The world is so big, even if they are all outstanding in martial arts, they don't think that Yanbei will be able to dominate the north and cross the Yellow River in five years, nor do they think that Sun Jian can sit in the southeast...... How can they see each other again when they are so far away?
But he never imagined that Sun Jian would die in battle!
"Do you know about this? He had a close personal relationship with Sun Jian, and when he was in the Central Plains, he sympathized with each other, and sent someone to tell him that the tiger in Jiangdong was killed. There is also Han Dang, who came to Liaodong to buy horses, that Liaoxi man is Sun Wentai's general, if he has nowhere to go, he can be a general under Yan, and let Lu Yi ask. ”
Yan Bei and Sun Jian did not have too deep personal friendship, only a little comradeship and admiration for his courage.
Therefore, after learning of Sun Jian's death, Yanbei only felt a little sad about the death of the rabbit and the fox, and nothing else. It was Lu Yi who made Yan Bei a little worried, and he guessed that Lu Yi would probably be drunk for a few days after learning the news.
So he called the house and asked them to send two jars of Taoxian aged wine to Luyi.
After doing this, he asked Fu Zhu again: "Gong and let's go on, Goguryeo and Buyeo are fighting again?" ”
"Yes, Goguryeo sent some gifts, hoping to repair relations with us." Although he paused for so long, he was not in the slightest bit unhappy, and continued: "Buyeo sent an envoy to hope that the lord would be its reinforcement to attack the western border of Goguryeo. ”
The Buyeo people are very anxious, they have been fighting with Goguryeo for so many years, and they have always fought inch by inch of land, why did they ask Liaodong County for help this time?
"We can help them, but not now." Yan Bei frowned and said: "We swallow Liaoxi, we need to deploy troops and horses in various counties to stabilize the situation, with the strength of Youdong alone, we can't destroy Goguryeo at one time, but if we join the Yu Kingdom and take away their national fortune for three or five years in a war, it is Yan's purpose." As for the reply to the Buyeo people, he did not reply to them in Liaodong first, and when the envoy left, he sent someone to conspire with him...... What do you think? ”
The three places are constantly strife, where is not the situation where I have you and you have me, Yanbei does not believe that Liaodong County does not have the eyes of the Goguryeo people, if the Buyeo envoys reach something with them here, it will not take long to reach Goguryeo.
Yanbei needs a moment.
That time was before the Goguryeo envoys left Liaodong, they poured troops to the west to relax their border defenses, and when Liaoxi was pacified, they attacked eastward and confronted the Goguryeo border defenses, creating opportunities for the navy!
