Farmer of Shu Han

Three days later, Feng Duhu finally stood on the top of Tianjingguan City, looking to the south.

The undulating Taihang Mountains are endless and endless.

The mountains are surrounded by floating clouds, and the autumn sun shines slantingly, and the blue and yellow can still be distinguished nearby.

In the distance, it can only be seen that it is covered by gray and black forests.

"Do you want to look at Hanoi?"

Zhang Jiu, who was following behind, saw Feng Duhu's appearance, and couldn't help but asked with a smile.

After conquering Tianjing Pass in three days, the Wuqian Army handed over a passing answer sheet, and Zhang Jiu was in a pretty good mood.

Because the Wuqian Army was the first battle, I didn't expect to be able to compare with the veteran elites such as the Tiger Army Wudang Army.

So he didn't have high expectations.

Fortunately, the opponent this time is not too strong.

After all, although the defenders of Tianjing Pass were forcibly boosted their morale.

But this kind of compulsion is irreversible and cannot last forever.

Especially in Zhang, he followed Du Yu's suggestion and occupied the hilltops on both sides of Tianjing Pass first, making a detour to cut off the rear of the pass city.

The garrison on Guancheng, whose morale was already unstable, finally could no longer suppress their panic.

No matter how intimidating the guard is, it will lose its effect if there are too many times.

When the Han army made another aggressive attack, the defenders completely lost their will to fight.

Hearing Zhang Jiu's words, Feng Duhu smiled and pointed forward:

"Although I want to see thousands of miles away, how can I see Hanoi with towering mountains blocking my eyes?"

Zhang Jiu's eyes lit up, he took a step forward, and asked in a low voice:

"Does the Central Guard have any interest in Hanoi?"

Where is that in Hanoi?

That's Sima Yi's hometown!

At the same time, it is also the foundation of the Sima family!

"Zhongduhu, along the Taihang Xing, the most dangerous place is the Tianjing Pass. Now that the Jingguan Pass has gone down, Sima Shi hastily retreated."

Zhang swallowed a mouthful of saliva, with excitement on his face, "If the Central Guard leads the army to go south, it may not be impossible to see Hanoi!"

It seemed that he had expected that Zhang would say this a long time ago. Feng Duhu's face remained unchanged, but he just glanced at Zhang with a little strange look.

Zhang was stunned: "Chuhu, could it be that the last general didn't think well?"

"No," Feng Duhu shook his head, "I just thought of one sentence."

"I don't know what it is?"

"Heroes see the same thing."

"ah?"

Zhang didn't know why.

I could only hear Feng Duhu said leisurely, "Before you, there was another person who made exactly the same statement as you."

Then he sighed again:

"I am really convinced of this strategy, but, just how can everything in the world be fulfilled?"

Zhang asked humbly:

"The last general is dull and doesn't understand the profound meaning of what Zhongduhu said."

After all, he was defeated and captured alive by an unknown ghost king, and then he was almost ruined by being tricked.

General Zhang has always been in awe in front of Zhongduhu.

There is no way, certain psychological shadows, coupled with the addition of various rumors, are sometimes difficult to eliminate.

"Actually, long before you, Yuan Kai had put forward an idea similar to yours, but after I considered it again and again, I finally rejected his opinion. Do you know why?"

"So Du Canjun also proposed this idea?" Zhang was a little surprised, and Du Yu's young face couldn't help appearing in his mind.

Thinking of his proposal in this battle again, he couldn't help but secretly said:

No wonder Du Yuankai was able to enter under the guardianship of Zhongdu and become a direct disciple. This son is indeed remarkable.

"That's right, he also proposed that after defeating Sima Shi, he would take advantage of the situation to take Tianjing Pass, and then take advantage of the big victory to advance to Hanoi."

"This strategy really appeals to me, but it is impossible to achieve at the moment."

Zhang thought for a while, and asked tentatively:

"Does the Central Guard feel that there are not enough troops?"

"Insufficient troops are one aspect, but more importantly, food and grass."

Feng Duhu said slowly, "General Zhang, haven't you noticed that this month's food supply is half a month late?"

If it was delayed by another half a month, I am afraid that the Invincible Army would not even be able to take down the Tianjing Pass.

"Insufficient food and grass?"

Zhang finally came to his senses.

With Feng Duhu personally in charge, the matter of food and grass in the army would naturally be taken over by the staff group.

Zhang is the main general, he only needs to lead the army to fight, and he doesn't have to worry about the rest, which is much easier.

But he didn't expect that the food and grass in the rear was already tight.

I really didn't expect it.

Because since he abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, in Zhang Jiu's impression, the big man has always had plenty of money and food, and he never has to worry about logistics and food when marching and fighting.

"This battle has been fought for too long. All the eight armies in Guanzhong have been dispatched. What is the difference between this and the whole country? The big man is not ready at all."

Feng Duhu's voice became a little low, "If not, how could I have taken advantage of Wei thief?"

The scale of this battle far exceeded everyone's expectations.

It is estimated that even Sima Yi, the instigator, did not expect to be beaten like this.

On Jihan's side, all the infantry and cavalry were sent out, and Guanzhong, Bingzhou, Hedong, Longyou, Liangzhou and other places were all depleted of troops, food and grass.

If you want to continue fighting, you can only use the strategic granary of Shu.

But even if it is to mobilize the food and grass in Shu, how can it be so easy in a hurry?

Not only will it disrupt Feng Duhu's arrangements in Shu, but more importantly, the road to Shu will be difficult!

Just transporting grain from Sichuan and then transporting it to the front line is really only one out of ten. This statement is a fact, and it is not an exaggeration at all.

Coupled with the long distance and hasty time, it will have to wait until the end of the year to wait for enough grain and grass to be transported to Guanzhong, and then distributed to the front line.

By then it will be the coldest time, if not necessary, the soldiers should take a good rest.

This rest, at least until next spring.

After spring, farming is more important than fighting.

The plan for a year lies in spring.

If the spring plowing work is not done well and there is no food in stock, then people will starve to death.

Especially in Guanzhong, East Taiyuan and other places, the past few years are the critical period for the implementation of the New Deal.

If for this battle, too many civilian husbands were mobilized and the spring plowing was affected, it would just give some people an excuse to criticize the New Deal.

A troll won't tell you the facts and reasons, he just needs to catch the result and start spraying.

Why do you implement the New Deal, but the harvest is not good?

It must be the New Deal!

What war?

Isn't fighting a matter ahead?

There is no bandit army in the rear, so how can we fight?

Can you find a better excuse?

Are you unwilling to use your heart even to make excuses?

It's because of your New Deal that everyone can't get enough to eat!

Therefore, soldiers, the major affairs of the country must be investigated!

As one of the power holders of the great Han, Feng Duhu had to consider the overall situation and even the future.

Instead of just looking at the momentary gains and losses in front of you.

As a representative of the Kanto family, Sima Yi launched this Shangdang campaign, especially the attack on Taiyuan.

It does seem a bit risky, and it doesn't seem to fit Sima Yi's usual style.

So, besides wanting to counterattack the big man.

It is also doubtful whether it is possible to disturb or even interrupt the implementation of the Dahan New Deal.

After all, the Dahan Restoration is digging the roots of the aristocratic family!

Feng Duhu naturally wouldn't tell Zhang all these things.

However, after knowing that the supply of food from the rear has begun to struggle, Zhang Jiu couldn't help showing a look of exclamation on his face:

"So that's how it is! It's often heard that Jiang Shangshu provides food and grass for the army, and has always had enough food and clothing."

"I didn't expect that even Jiang Shangshu couldn't deliver the food on time. It seems that it is indeed difficult to raise food."

As soon as Zhang mentioned Jiang Wan, Feng Duhu coughed uncontrollably, with a strange look on his face.

How about saying that Jiang Wan is a real person?

I just asked him to give priority to supplying the Tiger Infantry Army and the Wuwei Army. Before I thought about it, he really started to delay the supply of food and grass in Hebei.

If Jiang Wan could hear what Feng Duhu was thinking at this time, he would definitely have to say:

I've heard that Feng Duhu has a good way of collecting money, since Feng Duhu asked me to give priority to supplying food and grass for the Tiger Infantry Army and the Wuwei Army, if I want to come to Feng Duhu's side, I must have a way.

Of course, it was not wrong for Jiang Wan to trust Feng Duhu so much.

Because he has indeed thought of a way - that is to kill pigs for the New Year.

Although there are still more than two months before the Chinese New Year, and the pigs in Shangdang are not as fat as those in Hedong.

But people are so hungry, how can they care about the fatness and thinness of pigs?

Besides, no matter how skinny a pig is, there will always be a few taels of meat on it, right?

There is not enough meat, so there are still pork bones to make soup!

Isn't this the time to knock the bone and suck the marrow?

Let's kill and fill the stomach first!

Part of the latest batch of grain and grass was sent from the eldest son.

Obviously, Shi Bao has already deeply understood what Feng Duhu meant.

Right now, what Feng Duhu has to consider is how to keep the results of the battle, rather than continue to expand the results.

Just when the war in Shangdang was calming down, Feng Duhu was preparing to dispatch soldiers to guard the various passes.

Yecheng, Jizhou, which is separated by a Taihang, is about to ignite a raging war.

Standing at the top of the city of Yecheng, Huan Fan, the Governor of Jizhou in the Wei State, pointed at the city and cursed:

"Sima Zhongda, you are the Grand Tutor of Wei, a minister appointed by the late Emperor himself!"

"You don't want to be loyal to the country, and you don't want to beg for thieves for the country. Now there is no order from the emperor, but you lead troops across the state border without authorization, and raise your troops to surround the capital of the Wei Dynasty!"

"What are you going to do? Are you going to rebel? Emperor Wu has long said that you are not a good minister, and now you are helping the western thief and harming me!"

"Sima Yi, you have a lizard as your heart, a wolf as your nature, and a heinous crime. The world will not tolerate it!"

"Everyone who is loyal to the Wei Dynasty is willing to eat your flesh! A man with a handsome head! You old thief with a gray beard! You will soon return to the Nine Springs. How can you face the Three Emperors?"

...

Huan Fan jumped and cursed at the top of the city, and the vicious words kept coming.

If Sima Yi hadn't been able to raise his energy well, at such a great age, he would have been scolded by Huan Fan for having a cerebral hemorrhage, and would turn over and fall off the horse on the spot.

It's just that since Sima Yi took the risk of attacking Taiyuan, and then saw that the timing was a little wrong, he immediately diverted to Jizhou, and surrounded Yecheng with lightning speed, so he had planned for a long time.

Moreover, Hanoi County is adjacent to Wei County where Yecheng is located. With the deliberate understanding of people, Sima Yi may know the situation of Yecheng better than Huan Fan, the governor of Jizhou.

Although Kuang Huanfan has long-standing expectations, he only competes in the world.

And every time he pastured a land, he was at odds with his colleagues.

When Dudu Qing and Xu Zhu were in the army, they had a housing dispute with Zou Qi, the governor of Xuzhou.

He even intended to kill Zou Qi with his power as an envoy, so he was reported by Zou Qi and dismissed from office.

Later, he was reactivated, and he was not satisfied with being moved to the governor of Yanzhou, so he withdrew soon after.

After Cao Shuang came to power, seeing him as a fellow villager, he was appointed governor of Jizhou.

However, Huan Fan was not happy because Lu Zhao, the general of Zhenbei and the shepherd of Jizhou at that time, became an official later than him, but the official was higher than himself.

His wife, Zhong Shishi, was pregnant. After some persuasion, Huan Fan became furious and directly poked Zhong Shi's stomach with the handle of the ring-shou knife.

As a result, both Zhongshi and the unborn child died.

Huan Fan's personality is really as his wife Zhong Shi said, "difficult to be a subordinate" and "difficult to be a superior".

It means that you can neither be a boss nor a subordinate.

Now even if he is forced to be the governor of Jizhou, how can his temperament change drastically and he can calm down to understand the affairs of Jizhou?

Standing on the top of the wall, he scolded Sima Yi to his heart's content, but the weapon of criticism cannot replace the criticism of weapons, and after all, talking can't compare with stone cannon.

Looking at the army outside the city, it would be impossible for Huan Fan to say that he was not panicked at all.

He is not afraid of death, but afraid of not being able to defend Jizhou.

What is even more frightening is that, as the governor of Jizhou, he was easily taken away by Sima Yi without any precautions.

Self-proclaimed that he has always been wise and strong all his life, never resigned to being inferior to others.

But now being played by Sima Yi in the palm of his hand, being surrounded by soldiers under the city is like waking up from a dream.

When people in the world talk about this matter in the future, I'm afraid they will all laugh at Huan Yuan for being ignorant and reckless, and for vainly betraying the trust of General Cao.

Thinking of this, Huan Fan felt more uncomfortable than killing himself.

The most terrible thing is that he was indeed played by Sima Yi to "secretly hide his position".

This fact is irrefutable.

Shocked, angry, remorseful and frightened, Huan Fan naturally wanted to jump.

He almost used the most vicious words he could think of in his life to scold Sima Yi.

Compared to Huan Fan's fury and incompetence, Sima Yi was much more at ease.

By now, he couldn't turn back—although he didn't plan to turn back.

After all, instead of being trapped in Luoyang and waiting to die, it is better to win.

If you can't beat the Western Thief, can you still beat General Cao and his celebrities?

He didn't even need to think about excuses, General Cao came to his door by himself.

"Mr. Huan, together with Cao Shuang, was entrusted by the late emperor to assist the emperor. Yi was alone in Luoyang, defending against the western thieves, sleeping all night long, not daring to slack off, and only serving as a screen for the western frontier for the great Wei."

"However, Cao Shuang, as a great general, coerced the young emperor into Xuchang, forced the queen mother into another palace, abolished Zhongliang from the court, and summoned wolves to the desk."

"Changes in court codes, government orders have been changed several times, things can't be taken care of, officials are in turmoil, and the people are uneasy."

"In the mansion of the great general, there are many wives and concubines in the rear court, and they secretly took seven or eight talented people from the late emperor, thinking it was a joke."

"Also fraudulently made an imperial edict, and sent fifty-seven talented people to Yetai, so that the former emperor Jieyu could teach them how to perform tricks."

"Take Taiyue musical instruments without authorization, and ban soldiers in the arsenal. Make a grotto room, sparse it around, gather in it, drink and have fun."

"It belongs to He Yan, Deng Yang, and Ding Mi, who are all ministers. Yan Dian elected him, and the captain of Guisili took advantage of his power to dictatorship. He divided hundreds of acres of mulberry fields in Luoyang, Yewang Diannong, and the bad Tangmu land as property and stole it. official stuff."

"Cao Shuang and the dogs and eagles can be said to monopolize the power, behave arrogantly and extravagantly, are disloyal to the royal family, and are not straightforward to human beings."

After counting Cao Shuang's many crimes in one breath, Sima Yi continued to make people preach loudly:

"Yi planned to go to the party and attack Taiyuan. He once turned to Jizhou for help. He hoped to join hands with Huan envoy to help the Great Wei."

"Ran Huan and Cao Shuang are from the same village, and Cao Shuang supported him, but he sat back and watched me lead a lone army to fight in Shangdang Taiyuan, without supporting a single soldier."

"To the Shangdang's gains and losses, to the inability to attack Taiyuan, to the fact that I alone cannot stop the thieves."

"Looking at Xuchang, Cao Shuang, who was in the rear, controlled the treasury, and had a large army, not only could not control the Wu Kou in the south, but surrendered Xiangyang to the Wu Kou."

"I, Great Wei, have never had the advantage of controlling Wu Kou since then, and this is all Cao Shuang's fault!"

Huan Fan at the head of the city, before he finished listening, he couldn't care less about the demeanor of a celebrity, and burst into foul language again and again:

"Fart! You fart! You are talking nonsense, you are talking nonsense, you are slandering the general!"

After jumping again and again, Huan Fan wished he could fly down to the city and gag Sima Yi's mouth.

But other than shouting "Sima Yi is talking nonsense", he couldn't refute it with a single word.

It was no longer plausible to scold Sima Yi at the beginning.

The reason is very simple, because the things listed by Sima Yi are all real facts, there is no fabricated words.

Even saying that he sat back and ignored the Shangdang war is half true and false.

Because Sima Yi did send someone to deliver a letter, saying that he was asked to attack Taiyuan from Jingxing.

But at that time, who knew that Sima Yi could enter Taiyuan?

Besides, the letter did not agree on when.

From the standpoint of each other, he naturally only regarded Sima Yi's nonsense as a joke for this kind of unclear letter.

But he didn't expect that someone would use this matter as a monster today.

"Idiot, idiot, as stupid as a pig!"

This sentence is another scolding of Cao Shuang and Taichung Sangou.

Not to mention forcing the Empress Dowager to live in another palace, not to mention recruiting talents from the late emperor as family tricks, not to mention taking Taile musical instruments without authorization, and banning soldiers in the arsenal.

Just talk about the matter of "dividing Luoyang, Yewang Diannong Department of several hundred hectares of mulberry fields, and destroying Tangmu land as property and stealing official property".

into his mother's!

Luoyang, Henan Province, and Wild King Hanoi are all Sima Yi's territory. Are you three dogs in Taichung crazy?

Even the royal property in these places, the imperial court dares to grab it!

Besides, Sima Yi opened his eyes and let you do anything wrong in these two places. Haven't you ever thought about the conspiracy?

"Emissary Huan, a certain led the army here today, not for anything else, but for two things!"

All I could hear was Sima Yi at the bottom of the city calling again:

"Firstly, our army has been fighting one after another, and our soldiers are exhausted and lack food. It has been many days without enough food. Also, Cao Shuang has not been able to supply food and grass on time."

"That's why I'm here today, and I want to borrow some food and grass from Mr. Huan."

"Secondly, I heard that Cao Shuang sent dozens of talented people from the late emperor to Yecheng, so that the late emperor Jieyu could learn how to perform tricks!"

"Yi is bold. Today he wants to overstep once more. He only wants to avenge the royal family. Please envoy Huan to open the city gate so that Yi can lead people into Yetai to see what happened."

When Huan Fan heard this, he was dripping with cold sweat!

Because of Yetai, there are really talents sent by Cao Shuang from the first emperor!

"Beautiful Cao Zidan, she is as cool as a calf's ears! We are afraid that we will be implicated and our family will be wiped out!"
