Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

Chapter 503 Sent to Henan

To the south of the river bridge, a group of people and horses lined up to evacuate the city camp here, and soon other people and horses moved forward to fill these defense gaps.

In a large tent in a fortress in the south city of Heyang, He Ruodun opened his eyes wide and glared angrily at the generals in the tent, including Yu Wenhu, and shouted loudly: "The bandits from the east promised that my family, the master of the house, will be more honorable and noble. He will return to Heluo." I have taken control of Yuzhou in the north, but my father-in-law only wants to express his gratitude for the reconstruction of Daxingtai and his kindness to his close relatives. If he hesitates at all, I will accept the death penalty!

Being so outspoken and so sincere, you still can’t win the trust of the public? What kind of evil scheming is there to think that my husband is suspected of collaborating with the enemy? Could it be that it was a sin for the master of the house to have such outstanding achievements that he attracted the thieves to win over him, but that mediocre person with no merits and no one cared about his progress or retreat was the real loyal person?

Nowadays, the roads are not prosperous. Who doesn’t have relatives who are lost between the East and the West? If this can be used to prove whether the person in question is pure or not, then is it even possible for Daxing..."

"shut up!"

Although it was quite satisfying to hear Ruoden He's mouth spraying people, he still couldn't say it casually after all. Seeing that this guy was getting out of control, Li Tai quickly opened his mouth to stop him, and then looked at the crowd in the tent and sighed. He said: "If you are careless in planning your life, you will take the blame on yourself. Duke Nanyang made this decision, and I dare not complain.

I just hope that you can take this as a lesson. You must be careful when facing the enemy and don't be careless so that evil will arise, which will not only harm yourself, but also harm the country's affairs. Fortunately, I still have you here to share the responsibility, and my absence will not hinder the overall plan. Although I am not here, I hope that you can fulfill your duties and make greater contributions to the country and yourself! "

As soon as Li Tai finished speaking, Yu Wenhu also stood up from the table, looked around at the people in the tent and said in a deep voice: "The Xihe Gongsuo Department was originally the vanguard of the former division. It sent troops to Kansai a month ago, and the troops rushed here with great momentum. , All attacks are invincible, it can be said that hard work has achieved great results.

Now that all the volunteers from all the routes in western Henan have gathered here, the military aircraft can do important tasks without leaving the troops alone. Therefore, the Xihe Gongyin troops temporarily returned to the rear to rest and recuperate, in order to be more brave and tenacious in fighting again in the future. You bid farewell to each other, and quickly lead your respective troops to strengthen the river defense. Do not neglect or waste the previous efforts of Xihe Gong! "

After hearing this, all the generals stood up one after another, clasped their fists to Li Tai and said goodbye, and then exited the tent one after another and went to various places in the river defense according to their respective responsibilities.

Li Tai took this scene in his eyes and sighed secretly in his heart. Although this situation was what he had expected before, when Yu Wenhu really dared to transfer him, he had to admire that this guy really did Dare to think and do.

Although Yu Wenhu told him that this was Zhao Gui's decision, and Li Tai himself claimed so, he knew in his heart that Zhao Gui probably did not have such courage. Tens of thousands of troops in Heyang are close at hand, and the rear reinforcements have not yet arrived. Even most of the troops here are biased towards Li Tai. If you want to remove Li Tai's frontline command, you really need great wisdom and courage.

Take these volunteers in western Henan as an example. Although Li Tai had been kind to them, such small favors were not enough to affect their stance in the face of big rights and wrongs. If they could be won over so easily, then in the past few years after the Battle of Mangshan, not a single one of them would have been left in the united front by the Eastern Wei Dynasty.

Therefore, as long as Yu Wenhu insists that Li Tai is suspected of collaborating with the enemy, these people are willing to give Li Tai moral support even if they refuse to believe it, but they will not stand with Li Tai against Bafu. Whoever can represent Bafu better will be the one they will stand by.

Of course, this does not mean that Li Tai's previous kindness is meaningless. If he can represent Bafu, or simply becomes the new Bafu, then these people will naturally unite closely around him.

This incident actually reflects Yu Wenhu's acting style and character flaws. As long as I am brave and reckless, you must bear with me for the sake of the country, otherwise we will all be destroyed together! The pressure to unite the masses does not come from his own prestige and wisdom, but from everyone's subconscious avoidance of the worst-case scenario.

Among the powerful officials of the later Three Kingdoms, Yu Wenhu's deeds of killing two emperors and half of the founding fathers of the country can be described as extremely tough, but he was simply killed by two wolf cubs, and he was left alone in the end. Many of Yu Wenhu's actions were actually overdrafting authority rather than creating authority, so his hegemony seemed particularly unsustainable.

As the crowd all exited, Li Tai also put away his reverie. Just as he was about to get up and leave, Yu Wenhu raised his hand to stop him again: "Boshan, please stay for a moment. I still have something to say to you." ”

Seeing the sincere look on his face, Li Tai couldn't help but feel a little curious. He raised his hand to screen away He Ruoden and other subordinates. He stayed in the tent and looked at Yu Wenhu and said, "Brother Sa Bao has something to say, but please speak out."

Yuwen Huxing walked to Li Tai, took a deep breath first, and then said in a deep voice: "I know that Boshan you will never have any rebellious intentions. Anyone who talks based on this is just a mediocre person. But, alas, , this matter is not decided by me alone..."

Li Tai was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He wanted to ask Yuwen Hu how you were so sure? If that short-lived guy in the east can't even guard against the cook, maybe Brother Sabao and you will be reunited with your mother and son by now.

Yu Wenhu couldn't hear Li Tai's inner thoughts, but continued to say seriously: "Actually, it would be a good thing for you, Boshan, to leave the front line at this time. You have been working hard in battles and need to recuperate urgently. Here. Although there are still unfinished military achievements, every step forward may require a hundred times of hard work, and it is not a fluke.

Besides, Boshan, you do have many relatives and friends stranded in Hebei. Even if you are honest and open-minded, you will inevitably be criticized and criticized. People who are outside the matter will not be able to distinguish the importance of the matter, and will only speculate why the previous achievements were quick but the later achievements were slow. If something is not to his liking, he will launch a massive attack and slander Li Tai as if he can..."

Yuwen Hu, now, has not completely been buried by his desire for power. He still feels ashamed for seizing Li Tai's command and the opportunity to make meritorious service, so he can't help but comfort Li Tai. In fact, it is also to excuse himself, although there is a limited reason.

Of course, he doesn't know that there is no need to find any moral and emotional reasons for his behavior, because this behavior itself is helping Li Tai escape from the front battlefield with uncertain prospects.

The military order issued by Yuwen Hu in the name of Zhao Gui is to let Li Tai's troops slowly change their guards and withdraw in sequence, but Li Tai naturally has no mood to stay here any longer. Since he has this excuse, he immediately ordered his troops stationed in the two cities to withdraw immediately.

Of course, he did this not to do it as much as possible. Hurry up and leave the mess to the next generation.

It is not just talk that the three cities of Heyang are easy to defend and difficult to attack. Now that the two cities are in hand, although Yuwen Hu thinks that the river defense arrangement is not comprehensive enough, in fact, it is very difficult for the Eastern Wei to recapture the two cities. In particular, the river bridge in the northern section of Zhongyu City was severely damaged. No matter which side wants to launch an attack, the battle method of competing for crossing by boats is not their specialty.

After withdrawing from the river bridge, Li Tai led his troops along the way to Luoxi Jingu Cangcheng to join the remaining personnel.

Before, he led his troops to defeat Xue Guyan's troops near Qianjinyan, and before he had time to stay here to reorganize, he was dragged all the way to Heyang South City by He Ruodun and other pursuers.

This time when he returned, Liang Shiyan still led hundreds of soldiers to stay in this cangcheng, but many of the materials seized in the cangcheng were transferred away when the army passed through Luonan before.

Before, Li Tai was trapped in the river bridge and entered He couldn't retreat, so he had no time to care about this matter. But now that he was transferred from the front line, he had a reckless temperament. Whoever took his spoils of war must give an explanation.

So after arriving at Jingu Cang City and taking a short rest, Li Tai led a thousand elite cavalrymen to Luoyang City in the east. He found the commander Zhao Gui in the military camp between the original Jinyong City and the north city of Luoyang. After a lot of argument and consultation, he got an IOU for 8,000 pieces of silk from Zhao Gui.

Although the amount of the IOU was not large, it was important to distinguish between public and private. As the vanguard of the army, he did have the obligation to raise supplies for the troops in the rear, but Zhao Gui could not steal the property and private belongings of his troops and use them elsewhere!

Of course, the key was that Yifeng's troops, who were originally guarding the river defense, had already passed through Hanguan City and entered the Heluo area, and would arrive in Luoyang soon. Otherwise, Zhao Gui would be very worried about this matter. Don't think about settling it without bringing out some Gao Aocao: You are just trying to shirk your responsibility if you continue to accuse me of defecting!

In fact, long before Zhao Gui and Yuwen Hu transferred Li Tai from Heqiao, he had already sent someone to report the relevant matter to the government.

This time, Yifeng's troops arrived in Heluo first, accompanied by Changsun Jian, the acting minister of the government, who brought a plan for dealing with Li Tai's matter: he was ordered to use his official position to supervise the various volunteer armies in western Henan, and to occupy Beijingzhou from now on to replace Li Bi's troops, and to work with Wang Sizheng and other troops to support and assist Hou Jing, and no longer participate in a series of wars between Heluo.

Yuwen Tai was too lazy to respond to the question of whether Li Tai had the intention to defect. He still trusted him, but he did not put him in the most important position. Instead, he was directly exiled to the Luonan area, and asked him to lie down with Wang Sizheng to prevent Hou Jing from jumping into the Heluo battlefield again.
