Chapter 1391: The Jin Army Moves
Brother Richard is right, the actions of the golden vulture can't hide from Xu Huiyan, but Xu Huiyan can't stop the army of the golden vulture, because Xu Huiyan put on a defensive posture, Han Shizhong, Wu Jue, Wang Gui, and Li Qiong's men and horses were arranged in the city on the first line of the clouds, and they were calmly broken by the Jin vultures, Han Shizhong was defeated by the Jin army's artillery in Huanzhou, Wu Jue and Li Qiong lost Jincheng after four days of hard fighting with the Jin army, and Xu Huiyan was trapped in Shuozhou City.
Xu Huiyan was anxious to report to Taiyuan on the one hand, and on the other hand, he held the city to the death, but the 80,000 cavalry Jin army besieged Shuozhou, and neither the seed master Min nor Lu Yihao dared to send troops easily; when Zhang Xiaochun and Wang Yu were defending Taiyuan, Li Gang was too eager to rescue, and finally buried the 400,000 Hedong Army and the Western Army in the refueling tactics, causing the Jin Army to change its strategy, and the entire Hedong Army had no army to defend. Seed Master Min summoned Chong Bin to Taiyuan to discuss, but Chong Bin still thought that the Taiyuan army, which had only 100,000 foot soldiers, was unable to rush to help, and even the current transfer of the entire army in Hedong was ineffective.
Everyone saw that Yang Zhi was worried about the problem, that is, the lack of troops, or Xu Huiyan's lack of ability, and the seed master Min could only hand over the problem to Zhao Kai; Zhao Kai could only ask the people below, and this time he specially called Qu Duan, Li Yanxian and Li Heng together to see if the three of them had any high opinions. Li Yanxian offered a plan and said: "Yue Fei is familiar with the situation in the clouds, if King Yun can let Yue Fei lead the battle in the clouds, at least he can delay the attack speed of the Golden Vulture Technique. ”
Li Yanxian had met with Qu Duan before he came, and knew that Zhao Kai's intentions were still to insist on attacking Xingzhou, since this was the case, it was the right time to change Yue Fei's name; Zhao Kai thought about it: "Yue Fei has already said that he plans to retreat to Helan Si for the winter, and stay in Dingnan Mansion, if Yue Fei goes to the clouds, it can be, but he only has 30,000 cavalry. ”
Qu Duan shook his head and said: "If the prince hands over the troops of Volcano Prefecture, Fuzhou and other places to Yue Fei, how can he make up a sixty or seventy thousand people, those places have abundant military supplies, Yue Fei should be able to make a difference." ”
This is tantamount to letting the characters of Yang Zhi's family return to the clouds again, Zhang Suo and others dare not interject, even if Sun Ang is anxious now, he still does not dare to speak out against taking this matter on his body; Zhao Kai thought for a long time, and decided to order Yue Fei and Liu Ziyu to be stationed in Xiazhou and Jingzhou respectively, with Yue Fei as the defense envoy in the clouds, leading the armies of Huozhou and Qizhou, waiting for the opportunity to respond to Xu Huiyan's retreat, and let Xu Huiyan withdraw to the north of Taiyuan.
Li Yanxian went out of Lingzhou and took over the position of Liu Ziyu's army to continue to attack Xingzhou, Yue Fei and Liu Ziyu parted ways to reach Huozhou, but sent someone to send a letter to Shuozhou, Xu Huiyan was unwilling to withdraw at the moment, and insisted on relying on the support of half a year's grain in the city. Everyone understands that Xu Huiyan's withdrawal from Shuozhou this time means that his mission in the clouds is over, and he is just an ordinary leading general in Taiyuan.
Zhao Kai finished talking with Zhang Suo alone, and was about to forcibly let Xu Huiyan withdraw, but received news from the 800-mile fast horse that Weizhou was lazy in the direction of Wanyan Tart, and Guo Yan asked to come to Lingzhou to discuss the development of Puzhou's economy, and suggested that Yang Zhi temporarily take charge of Hezhong Road. I've seen shameless, but I've never seen such a shameless one, this time even Zhao Kai felt that he had lost face, but Liu Tao and a group of cadres all thought that Guo Yan had done a practical thing, at least he didn't joke about the future of the Northern Army, no matter what, Yang Zhi was definitely more suitable than Guo Yan to command the war in Hanoi.
At this moment, Yang Jin hurried back to Chang'an, ostensibly for Sun Li's business, but after meeting Yang Zhi alone, Yang Jin's face looked a little stiff, and he said for a moment: "Family master, Yizhong made me anxious to come back because we found that kind of Western Regions spice in Helan Mountain, the kind you found in the Bianliang Dyeing Incense Workshop." According to the original captive, it was planted by a Han man who came back from the Western Regions, but the Han man named Mu Ling later went to Gaochang and never came back, and the Western Xia had to sell the annual harvest to the Western Regions. ”
Yang Jin's name for himself and Yang Yizhong today is not an official position, but a family name, Yang Zhi knows that there must be something strange, but Yang Jin can say it calmly, and there is no need to care about the thoughts. Yang Zhi said: "If there are any other scruples, say it together, I won't blame you." Since we are a family, you should trust me to bear it. ”
Yang Jin nodded and said: "There are also some smart people in Helan Mountain, they have done research on this spice, they think it is used to attract animals, and they think that Mu Ling is not dead, but what he is doing in Gaochang, because some people are clearly Mu Ling's people, and they will come back in a year and a half to see the situation." ”
Yang Zhi smiled and said: "You mean, Mu Ling found that kind of animal in Gaochang? We have to guess, if that Mu Ling was a big man, he would not use these, he could grow spices in Western Xia, and the relationship with the high-level of Western Xia is not bad, he is a Han person, he really has something to do with the incense dyeing workshop, and he is not a mortal in the Great Song Dynasty." But Mu Ling still didn't dare to show his head, which showed that he was timid, a person with a weak heart couldn't make a big deal, you replied to Yizhong, even if he withdrew from Hexi, he had to arrange someone to investigate. Our main focus now is on the Jin people, and after I go on the expedition, Chang'an will be handed over to you. ”
Yang Jin suddenly became excited, Yang Zhi had many subordinates, such an arrangement was an absolute trust in himself, and he hurriedly stood up and said: "Don't worry, the head of the family, I will never let anything happen to Chang'an." ”
Yang Zhi arranged Yang Jin with this thought. However, Yang Zhi didn't need Yang Jin to do anything, so he said in Zen: "There is a time to live, a time to die, a time to plant, a time to bear fruit, and a time to replant; You only need to keep an eye on Kou Yi and the people on the list that the wanderer gave you, and don't let any army get close to Chang'an City for thirty miles. ”
Don't let any army, Yang Jin immediately understood, Yang Zhi was talking about Li Yanqi's army and the Xiang army near Chang'an; Yang Zhi didn't want to bother thinking about them now, what he had to do was not to let them get close to Chang'an. Yang Jin asked, "Will Li Yanqi's troops be transferred out of Chang'an?"
"That's nature. Yang Zhi said with certainty: "Guo Yan has sent someone to ask for help, saying that he is going to discuss the development of Hezhong with King Yun in person, and hopes that Puzhou and other places will be in charge of me for the time being." After all, Li Yanqi has a lot of veterans, even if he doesn't go to the battlefield, he can put them on the Puzhou side to calm the people's hearts, and just supervise each other with Guo Yan's troops. ”
