Chapter 749: Traitor
Yuzhou is located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, as the saying goes, the Central Plains has the world, here is the main battlefield of the heroes since ancient times, has always been the place where the soldiers must fight, is self-evident in its importance.
Not to mention the loss and annexation of the state, which has caused an uproar in the world, even if the Liang court headed by the Empress Dowager Gao Yuyao did not blame him, Sun Shouren also knew that it was impossible to withdraw the army so easily no matter what.
Moreover, retreating to Yuzhou has increased the depth of Ashina Falcon's front, and Sun Shouren is no longer facing it alone.
To the right of Yuzhou, there is Xuzhou, which is directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and it is impossible for Gao Yuyao not to pay attention to it, even if he just sends troops to guard the front line of Xuzhou, it is enough to form a certain containment of Ashina Falcon.
In addition, there are many passes in Yuzhou, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack, so the situation is temporarily stalemate after Ashina Falcon seized a very small part of Yuzhou's land.
But after all, the combat power is not as good as the Turks, and it is unlikely that they want to take the initiative to attack and win, after all, the Turkic cavalry is really a bit embarrassing, and the personal combat power is also very fierce, at least it is not the current army of the Great Liang that can compete head-on, as for the strategy, which is so easy to use, the people Ashina Falcon is not a vegetarian.
Of course, for Sun Shouren, who has carried a lot of pressure, it is not without good news, not all the leaders of the Turkic tribes are so enterprising, and due to Ainul's secret proposal, it is natural that other people will start to connect in private, and they can't wait to share the fruits of success.
Occupying a piece of Daliang's territory and actually ruling it, just thinking about it can make all the tribal leaders feel like a dream, and seeing that the attack on Yuzhou seems to be unable to attack for a long time, they are all a little impatient.
However, no one expected that something shocking to the world happened, Fang Hong, one of the great Confucians who traveled all over the world, had already been captured by Ashina Falcon, and then returned to Yuzhou accompanied by only six Turks, and then with the help of its super high prestige, deceived the city gates of one pass after another and even the city, and the Turks took advantage of all cavalry to attack all the way with lightning speed, and when Sun Shouren received the news, the Turkic army was already close to the foot of Luoyang.
But the problem is that at the moment, Luoyang seems to have a lot of defenders, but they are basically soldiers who have not experienced war all year round, if they can hold for a few days, Sun Shouren can also lead reinforcements to arrive, otherwise, Luoyang will be lost.
Seeing that the matter had been exposed, Ashina Falcon didn't mind, and directly imitated the official position of Daliang, named Fang Hong as the prime minister, and then accelerated the march to surround Luoyang for a strong attack, preparing to take this big city in the Central Plains as soon as possible.
Zhou Shaoyu had already returned to Wuxian when he received the news, and when he heard about it, he just sighed faintly, not to be angry, for traitors, Zhou Shaoyu thought that he would spit on them, but there would still be many such people if he spurned them. Fang Hong is not the first, before this, there were people who groveled to serve Ashina Falcon, but this time the prestige of the characters was a little higher.
Fang Hong has been an official for decades, his protégés and former officials are all over the world, he has compiled dozens of books, and has an unparalleled reputation among Shilin, but such a person would actually lose his life and choose to serve the invaders and Turks, which is unacceptable for any reason.
It is conceivable that now that the scolding from the outside world has boiled to a certain point, it will be difficult for Fang Hong not to leave a stench for ten thousand years this time.
If Zhou Shaoyu was still at the beginning of the crossing, even if he didn't have a sense of belonging to Da Liang, he would definitely be furious, but now, the fluctuations will not be too big, without him, after all, he has traveled through so many times of history and seen too many people of all kinds.
Even if I haven't seen it, I have grabbed a lot of similar characters.
For example, Qian Qianyi, one of the leaders of the Donglin Party at the end of the Ming Dynasty, this 'water is too cold' and he did not dare to jump into the river to martyr himself, and then went straight to the Qing.
Not everyone can be a loyal martyr, no matter how high the reputation is, the bad thing is that after having such a big goal to start, when others hesitate in the future, the burden on their hearts will be much smaller when they also choose to surrender.
Because they will involuntarily comfort themselves, then who and everyone like that kind of character has fallen, let alone me?
Right.
Anyway, Zhou Shaoyu sees this very openly, and wants everyone to be loyal and patriotic to death? Impossible.
Of course, as the current No. 1 talent of the beam, what should be expressed still has to be expressed, and a demonstration must be demonstrated, no matter what, it is impossible to shrink behind his back and remain silent.
Since he wants to make a head, Zhou Shaoyu does not choose to scold Fang Hong like others, anyway, there is no shortage of him like this, but plagiarizes a few patriotic poems and publishes them in the new issue of the collection of Shanhuai poems, and then Li Qingzhao selects the examples of unyielding death in the history of the Liang Dynasty for publication.
Everyone knows that they are two people, and as soon as this attitude comes out, even if they don't say anything, they all know that it is the contempt of Fang Hong, which shows that they are too lazy to say a word to scold, because it is a waste of saliva!
However, the outside world is probably quite disappointed, although Zhou Shaoyu has made some moves, but he is still a little more low-key and flat.
Zhou Shaoyu poked his nose at such a view, I myself am a thief, why do I spend so much effort to promote loyalty and patriotism, do you slap yourself in the face in the future?
Having said that, Zhou Shaoyu still hopes that the Turks will not take Luoyang, putting aside the unbearable mention of the common people, starting from his own interests, Sun Shouren can confront and weaken each other is the result that Zhou Shaoyu wants to see the most, on the contrary, whether the Turks are advancing all the way, or Sun Shouren suddenly rises up and drives the Turks back to the north, that is not what Zhou Shaoyu is willing to see, because this also shows that he will directly face a strong enemy in the future.
In addition, from another point of view, time is really urgent, with the current strength, don't say that looking at the world, it is self-preservation is reluctant, this also has to be due to the strength of the Tan Wangfu is not strong, otherwise you will change to a Turk or Sun Shouren to kill and try? Zhou Shaoyu can't hold it, and the difference in strength is too big.
"Speaking of Tanwangfu, I don't know what the situation has been recently." Zhou Shaoyu thought about it, and couldn't help but think of Sun Caiwei and Qin Yiliu again.
In the conversation that day, neither side mentioned what happened that night, and they were both smart people who knew that it was useless to mention it.
There is no affection between them, their identities are still opposites, and they are even very hostile to Zhou Shaoyu.
With Sun Caiwei's thoughts, it can only be regarded as being bitten by a mosquito, otherwise what else can I do? Don't say that there is no affection, even if there is, the identity and position of the two are destined to have no result, since this is the case, it is better to treat it as if it did not happen, so as not to make the psychological feeling complicated.
Having said that, if there is a chance to retaliate in the future, Sun Caiwei doesn't mind teaching Zhou Shaoyu a lesson or two.
