Royal Road

"Yongming has already taken Feng Yi? Good! As expected of my thousands of miles!" Hearing the latest report, Liu Yuan couldn't help but exclaimed in praise.

These days, he is always paying attention to the fighting in the west. A few days ago, I learned that Liu Yao had captured Chang'an in one fell swoop. He added 20,000 troops without saying a word, and wanted to completely occupy Chang'an. Unexpectedly, Liu Yao abandoned the city before the reinforcements arrived. Hearing this news, Liu Yuan's anger was broken. Unexpectedly, the evil fire in his stomach hadn't come out yet, and news came that Liu Yao had captured Feng Yi County.

Chang'an is farther away from Pingyang County, but Fengyi County is different. Not only is it directly bordered by Binh Duong, but it can also outflank Hadong. Coupled with the Tongguan pass, Hong Nong has a way to advance. In this way, half of Sizhou will be attributed to Han, which is much more cost-effective than taking down the lonely Chang'an.

The accumulated anger immediately disappeared, and Liu Yuan couldn't help but laugh. It seems that the loss of Chang'an can not be blamed on Liu Yao, but this son is decisive, allowing Han Guo to win.

"Congratulations to the king and the next city!" Shang Shu ordered Liu Happily to hand in congratulations, "Moreover, this attack on Chang'an was taken advantage of the solar eclipse. It seems that the incident of going to the party at the beginning was quite strange!"

This is also one of the important gains of this Changan victory. Liu Yao said that he ordered the official of the Jin Kingdom Taishi Ling to calculate the time of the solar eclipse, so he could conquer a strong city like Chang'an in one go. On the other hand, when the Shangdang suddenly sent troops in Zhengdan to take down Yangyi, did it also calculate the solar eclipse and did it deliberately?

If this is the case, the guts of that diseased seedling would be too great!

General Hu Yanliang on the side snorted coldly: "I heard that Liang Feng was promoted to the provincial governor? No wonder he will send troops to capture Qixian. After he enters Jinyang, he will be in the same state. I am afraid it will be difficult to endure. King, it is better to send troops as soon as possible. Attack the party!"

Hearing this advice from a heavy minister, Liu Yuan frowned slightly: "When a solar eclipse occurs, it is Liang Zixi's tricks for the first time, but there will always be thunder. If you rashly raise your troops, the soldiers might be afraid to fight."

"This must be a trick!" Hu Yanliang said sternly, "That Liang Zixi pretended to be a Buddha, and maybe he has received some strange people who can cast spells. It's better to prepare some **** filth in the army and wait until the battle. Before the battle, he will be able to break his vision!"

This is also a way, and the ministers of the lower ranks said yes. Liu Yuan didn't respond, but said: "It's not in a rush. The war between states and locusts for several years, and there is a shortage of Lishi locusts, even if it is no good. But Hedong is different. Now the important task is to occupy Hedong first!"

Hadong County is a truly fertile place. Not to mention the fertile land, but the families of Hedong, it is a big piece of fat. Wenxi Pei family, Wuqiu family, Anyi Wei family, which one is not one of the richest? Han Guo didn't have much friendship with them, and if they didn't surrender, there would be only a dead end. How much should be accounted for for occupying the land and property of these sects?

What's more, there is a salt pond in Hedong! Now the soldiers of the Jin State are gathering in Jingzhou, and they are fighting the imperial emperor Sima Ying. During the great chaos in Jizhou, Qingzhou and Yangzhou also had anti-thief. Yongzhou was just turned into a pot of porridge, and Liu Yao took Feng Yi again. Where is the lack of troops? Hedong is separated from Hongnong and Luoyang by the Yellow River, so even if the Jin army wants to come back to help, it is still powerless. It can be said that this moment is the best time to send troops! As long as he occupies Hedong, he occupies a large granary. Those urgent needs disappeared.

Wang Yu, who had been silent for a long time, said: "Not to mention the importance of Hedong, just Liang Zixi's celebrity governor can take advantage of it. If this son enters Jinyang, he will not be able to suppress the old minister or follow the leader. Conflict between the people. By then, Bingzhou can be brought into chaos without a single soldier!"

This is what Liu Yuan wants to see most. He smiled and said: "What Wang Shizhong said is very lonely. I heard that Liu Hu also recently voted for Han. It is better to let him join Baibu Xianbei and attack Jinyang from Xinxing County all the way. So, after Hedong settles down. , And can calmly deal with the state's soldiers and horses.

Liu Hu is the grandson of the Hun Youxian King Qubei, named Tiefushi. I have been taking care of my own door before, but now it may be that Han has become so powerful that I am interested in taking effect. If he could join the Xianbei to attack Jinyang, he would have bought himself a lot of breathing time.

After making up his mind, Liu Yuan no longer hesitated, and stood up: "Send a commander! Lead the troops alone, take Hedong!"

※

After several days of preparation, a team of 2,000 people left the Shangdang and headed for Jinyang.

After all, it was wartime and it should not be publicized. Liang Feng walked silently, and even the people in the city didn't know much about it. Of course, this is for safety reasons. If you get a road to send you off, you might be defeated by the Shangdang.

However, along the way, Liang Feng felt uncomfortable. Lucheng is the hinterland of the Shangdang, and it is also the best-run place. The farther away, the worse the environment. When we arrived in Nie County, the farmland was pitifully scarce, but Wubao was densely packed. When he crossed Nie County and truly entered the boundaries of Taiyuan, the world in front of him completely changed.

The road has long been deserted, and bones that have not been buried are vaguely visible in the fields. You may not be able to see a village or a town in a radius of tens of miles. The occasional traces of people are also refugees fleeing with the old and the weak. This is because they have a large number of them, and their armors are bright. If you change to a caravan, I am afraid that the bandits hiding in the mountains will already swarm them.

Back then, the business way that he ordered people to secluded has long since been severed. No one in the Shangdang dared to commit a crime, but Taiyuan State, a place that has fought for two full years, has long since fallen into anarchy. It's not uncommon to be afraid of selling wives.

Just a few dozen miles away, it became like this. What will happen to Jinyang, which has been under siege for a long time?

The more he goes, the heavier Liang Feng's mood becomes. This is the core of Bingzhou, the Jinzhong Basin, the most fertile land of the Three Jins. If the Taiyuan country is like this, and the rest of the state, it is hard to imagine.

Instead of going directly to Jinyang, the team stopped when they arrived at Yangyi. As the county magistrate, Ge Hong personally greeted him out of the city.

"I haven't seen it for half a year, and Zhichuan is also affected." Ge Hong has not only lost weight, but also got a lot darker. How could he have the demeanor of a hermit and Taoist. Just seeing it, Liang Feng couldn't help sighing.

"Zhijun, you look like you are overworked!" Ge Hong was not polite with him, and couldn't wait to grab the number one pulse on his wrist.

He had heard about Liang Feng's mistake in Hanshisan, but he didn't expect to be so seriously ill! After more than a year of recuperation, all was in vain!

Liang Feng smiled when he saw this and pulled the sleeves of the other party: "Jin is also here, not busy, you have time for consultation. Let me talk about the situation in Yangyi city first."

This time Jiang Da is also with the team, not only to treat Liang Feng, but also to preside over the epidemic prevention work in Bingzhou. After the war, there will be a major epidemic, and the population of the state is withered, and then it will be bad if it encounters the disease.

After all, this city was also where Ge Hong's heart was. As Liang Feng boarded the car, he introduced in detail: "In Yangyi city, only the city wall has been repaired now. Many houses in the city were destroyed when the city was captured. They were not allowed to rebuild all, and most of them were converted into huts as quarantine areas to house the former refugees. After the capture of Qixian County, the refugees in the city were assigned to clear the wasteland and rush to plant them. After some time, they should be able to harvest a season of soybeans.

Liang Feng listened to Ge Hong's narration while looking at the scene of the city. Sure enough, in this ruined town, the population is more than what you saw along the way. Even if everyone has a good face, it is not that kind of numb fear after all. He wants to defend the city and keep the people safe. Ge Hong has several jobs, he is not exhausted, and he is already in good health.

After arriving at the county office, Liang Feng shook his head, looking at the house that was burnt to one side, "It's just a county, and I really settled down in Zhichuan..."

This is the ancient bureaucrat who truly possesses integrity and talent. And it's the kind of compound talents who go out to be general, enter to respect, practice medicine, and hide to be immortal. Putting it in a county is really overkill.

On Ge Hong’s tanned face, there was a hint of redness: "At the beginning, Hong was in the army, and I only felt that the army was very dangerous. I never thought about the ruling party, and realized that the danger is no less than the battle. For half a year, Yang Yang The town accommodated a total of 3,000 dingkou. Those who survived are the citizens of Dajin after all."

Ge Hong is a mixture of Taoists and Confucianists. His life philosophy is a mixture of Taoist and Confucian real care for life. When he left the army, he only hated the Southerners' inability to be promoted through normal channels and was squeezed out by the superiors, and then left angrily. But now, as a county magistrate, governing a county, he immediately revived what he had been suppressing in his heart.

Seeing Ge Hong's expression, Liang Feng smiled and nodded: "It is fortunate for all people to have this thought in Zhichuan. But I still need help when I go to Jinyang."

Hearing what Liang Feng said, Ge Hongmeifeng couldn't help but move. This was to invite him into the scene. The staff from the county magistrate to the governor seemed to move, but in fact it was a big step forward. However, he was involved in the political chaos in Jinyang, can he still be as he is now?

As if he understood Ge Hong's thoughts, Liang Feng added: "Zhichuan don't need to worry, I am the only one you want to assist. Those complicated interpersonal relationships will be thoughtful."

Ge Hong is not a communicative talent. On the contrary, he has always been a little dull and dull in interpersonal relationships. I don't know if it was the influence of his father's loss in his childhood. Dealing with specific matters is completely competent, but other things still need to be sharpened.

Hearing what Liang Feng said, Ge Hong finally nodded: "As long as you don't give up, Hong Ding will do his best!"

With Ge Hong, there will be more help. Liang Feng breathed a sigh of relief: "In this way, I can go to Jinyang with confidence. But the top priority is to prepare a canopy."

"Stand up the car?" Ge Hong repeated inexplicably. Only when the imperial court pays homage to the Mingtang in the suburbs of the temple, will the large carriage stand upright. Three males, nine princes, and two thousand stones are allowed to drive. A politician like Xiang Liangfeng should usually be the second driver of the car. Why did you suddenly remember to stand up?

Liang Feng said: "Someone can't refuse to welcome me, so I'm going to visit by myself. Jinyang also needs a breath of fresh air."
