Royal Road

"The general was assassinated and killed?" Back to Shangai, he didn't wait for news of reinforcements, but waited for such bad news. Don't say it was Wang Chang, even Duan Ji Lu's family was shocked.

However, the letter and newspaper were clearly placed there. Youzhou, Changshan County, and Duan Wuchen sent messengers three times, with similar contents. Wang Jun died, the army bombed the camp, and Changshan County was attacked. To the east of the Taihang Mountains, it has long been chaotic and beyond control, and their group of soldiers and horses that have gone deep into the state has become a complete lone army.

"We must withdraw from Bingzhou as soon as possible and return to Youzhou." Duan Ji and Lu Jun made a decisive decision.

The coach is dead, the food is cut off, and dragging on will only mess up the military's mind. Duan Clan Xianbei was only ordered to help fight, and now all the people who obey Feng are dead, why bother with empty troops here?

Wang Chang's face was green when he heard the words, and he sternly said: "Why, the elder son thought that the general's death would cause Youzhou to be in chaos? The son is still there, and the tens of thousands of powerful soldiers in Youzhou are not damaged. Even if the general is dead, he can still control the situation. !"

Only a yellow-mouthed child holds the situation? Duan Ji Lu Zhuan sneered in his heart. But he often goes to and out of the general's mansion, and he knows Wang Jun's family affairs well. Not to mention anything else, just looking at Wang Yu, it is not a simple character. Jin people pay attention to concubines, they Xianbei see power. Youzhou still doesn't know what it will be like. If you want to conquer the state, at least you have to solve the family affairs.

However, Duan Ji and Lu Juan would not put his belly on the face and say: "The supervisor wants to go wrong. No matter what the situation in Youzhou, it is always right to withdraw troops. Now our army has lost the way of retreat, and the rear army has been broken by the combined state soldiers and horses. , Food and grass are also unsustainable. If you want to return to Youzhou, you can only take a detour. One day later, you will lose a ration, which is really too late!"

Wang Chang could not argue. Bingzhou’s strong walls and clearing the wild, because of food to the enemy is definitely a daydream. If the problem of food and grass cannot be resolved and the military will be disintegrated, there is no need to fight. But just withdrawing like this is not what he wants to see. Especially in the chaos in the rear, in case of retreat now, wouldn't it give Liang Zixi the opportunity to send troops to attack Changshan County. Even the big camp, who has lost the coach and doesn't know when it will be able to gather, is in danger. Even if he can't attack Binzhou, he can't be given such a chance!

"This news may not reach Jinyang right away. There were a few gentry who were familiar with the Wang family in Taiyuan, planning to serve as the generals. You can take advantage of the situation and let them give food to the city and earn time. In this way, we will be able to do so. I can withdraw calmly without losing my sense. And will the court watch Liang Zixi behave so recklessly and murder the important officials of the same court? Maybe he will even decree and call for justice for the general!"

Wang Chang's words left Duan Ji and Lujuan speechless for a while. Will the court really condemn Liang Zixi? I'm afraid it's difficult. Are there still few Xinjiang officials who have been fighting over the past few years because of private grievances? At that time, Emperor Qinzhou's governor Huangfu reconciled with Hejian Wang's confidant Li Han, and led his troops to attack Yongzhou. As a result, the King of Hejian sent troops from the four counties of Liangzhou in Qinzhou to counterattack. The battle lasted for two full years, and the people who were in power in the court changed all the time, and no one was convicted. These days, beggar-thy-neighbors are justified. How else would Wang Jun dare to send troops to attack Bingzhou without authorization?

Although he was uncomfortable, Duan Ji and Lu Juan had to admit that if he could retreat calmly, it would be more in his own interest. The loss of the rear army has become a fact, and his Xianbei spirit riders cannot afford to be lost.

But I think so, before the little gentry who Wang Chang contacted to show up, the enemy army was in front of him. Moreover, it was not the partial division who had appeared before, and joined the army of the state, which was more than 40,000. What's more terrible, before fighting, thousands of soldiers shouted in unison: "Wang Jun is dead, and the food road is cut off. You are not quick to surrender!"

That voice is obviously specially trained, not only in Mandarin, but also in Xianbei Huyin. The news of the debacle of the big camp has always been a secret in the military. How can you ever want to be so drunk? Seeing that there was a commotion in his own formation and the people's heart was unstable, Duan Ji and Lu's complexion changed greatly: "Don't listen to the thieves disturbing the military's spirit! Kill me!"

Can't wait any longer, you must escape from Bingzhou as soon as possible to keep your soldiers!

However, how can the enemy formation with bright banners and rainbow-like momentum be easily circumvented?

The killing sounded soaring and the drums of war continued. The two armies were once again covered up in one place.

※

No one expected Liang Feng to go to the party. And the whole state was extremely worried, thinking that the worsening of the situation also gave some people a chance to take advantage of it.

As a result, on the second day after leaving Jinyang, a few gentry who were familiar with the Wang clan of Taiyuan sent people to Leping to get in touch with Youzhou Bingma. However, none of these people can reach their destination.

In the next few days, the situation changed suddenly. The three little nobles were found out evidence of collaborating with the enemy, and directly asked Zhan. Just when someone was surprised that Liang Zixi was so bold and arrogant, wouldn't he be afraid to annoy the Binzhou nobles, the two armies of Youhe began their first head-on battle.

The battle was dim and dark, and it took a whole day and night. Youzhou soldiers and horses were damaged by nearly ten thousand, abandoned Leping, and fled towards Yanmen.

what does that mean? The Youzhou Army's back road was cut off! And forty thousand to sixty thousand, there are still many Xianbei cavalry, and the state soldiers and horses are still in the wind. This alone is enough to silence all those who have doubts. This is not over yet, soon news from Youzhou came out. Wang Jun died, Daying collapsed, Changshan County changed hands, and the situation has completely reversed.

Now, who would dare to make noise? The situation in Jinyang has settled down like never before.

In the Lucheng Prefect’s Mansion, Liang Feng looked at the latest military newspaper: “The soldiers and horses of Fanyang Daying have begun to retreat.”

Changshan County played extremely easily. Taking advantage of the news of Wang Jun's death, Jingxing and Zhao Jun sent troops from both sides. Without much effort, they occupied several cities and drove away the defenders of Youzhou. But Wang Jun's remaining camp is always a threat. As long as the soldiers and horses do not retreat, there is a possibility of sending troops. It is not too difficult to regain Changshan County with thirty or forty thousand people, and even reopen Jingxing. In that way, even if you stop attacking Bingzhou and just rescue the trapped soldiers and horses, you can still leave a lot of trouble.

But they did not even complete the rectification of the defeated troops, so they simply withdrew their troops neatly. A lot of soldiers and horses stationed in Jizhou were also evacuated. Even if he couldn't get the first-hand letter, Liang Feng knew why.

Yi Yan got it right!

Go deep into Youzhou, surprise Jicheng, and stir up chaos in the rear. In this way, how can the confidant who has just lost the coach sit still? Even the soldiers and horses guarding Jizhou must retreat to prepare for the upcoming power struggle.

This battle is basically over at this moment. But where is the person who made the first contribution?

Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses flocked back, can Yiyan and the others withdraw smoothly? However, in the current situation, even if one wants to send troops to meet him, it is impossible to do so. Yiyan's retreat will inevitably not take the old road, and even bypass the occupied counties to the north of Jizhou to avoid enemy troops. There are thousands of miles on this journey, how can we get people?

There is no way to respond. The only thing that can be done is to stay in the Shangdang and wait for him to come back! Inexplicably, Liang Feng felt that Yi Yan would not return to Qinghe, nor would he go to Yecheng. He will go directly through Xingdao and return to Shangdang. As long as he can come back...

"Add troops to Yecheng, always pay attention to Fukouxing. If Boyuan returns, come quickly!" Liang Feng ordered without hesitation.

Cui Ji didn't refute it. Now that Yi Yan attacks and kills Wang Jun, it is estimated that the turmoil in Jicheng has spread. No one would believe that he was separated anymore. The most feasible method is to send troops to Yecheng and hold Sizhou and Jizhou. There are just some things that cannot be ignored.

"Guarding Yecheng is the right thing to do. But the king's prefect must be explained to the court. After all, he is Wang Situ's nephew, which is a little troublesome." Cui Ji reminded.

Yi Yan made too much noise this time, and even sent someone to kill Wang Ping, completely occupying Yecheng. I don't know if it is because he is afraid that Wang Ping will appear strange after he leaves, or he is using his head to numb Wang Jun. However, this person was sent by Wang Yan. Now that Sima Yue is dead, Wang Yan has become the leading official in the court. Offended him, but it was a bit bad.

Liang Feng smiled coldly: "Wang Jun supported his soldiers, intending to take advantage of the death of King of the East China Sea to go south to Sizhou. After Wang Ping learned the news, he went with it, and wanted to exchange Yecheng for Wang Jun's reuse. Boyuan made a decisive decision and beheaded. Wang Ping, the surprise attack on Wang Jun's Daying, has just resolved the siege of Luoyang."

Cui Ji was taken aback, and he didn't even know what to say. This is clearly a reversal of right and wrong, referring to a deer as a horse. However, after a moment of stun, seeing the cold expression of the person in the seat, he knew that this was the answer given by the lord. The only answer to the emperor in Luoyang city and Wang Situ who might be in power.

Wang Jun killed, and Wang Ping killed too, just because these people should be killed! Now that Sima Yue is dead, Chang'an and Hongnong are captured by the Huns, plus the Youzhou riots, how many people are still available? Facing this answer, what can the court say?

The princes said, wouldn't the emperor Zhou also recognize it? After defeating Youzhou invaders, the lord has already boarded the road to hegemony, how can you retreat!

Excited in his chest, Cui Ji replied: "The next official will draft the letter and send it to Luoyang!"

Liang Feng nodded slightly and did not answer any more. Looking over Cui Ji's figure, he looked to the north. All right and wrong, all blame, he can stand for Yi Yan, as long as he is safe and can return as soon as possible!

At the same moment, within the territory of Youzhou, a group of remnants were fleeing madly south. Behind them, followed by another cavalry, there are three or four thousand people.

The escape from the city was extremely smooth, but the return journey was not so peaceful. Upon hearing the news of the great chaos in Jicheng, the rear army escorting grain and grass within the territory moved first. These people are Wang Jun's confidantes, so why are they willing to let go of the thieves who killed Wang Jun and slaughtered Wang's family. This group of enemies are like hungry wolves chasing their prey closely, and they can't get rid of them.

As soon as he was about to drive into a mountain col, Yi Yan whispered: "Liu Gong, you take eight hundred people to ambush, I will stay and stop!"

There are only more than 1,200 people left. They have been fighting for four or five consecutive days. They are already exhausted and unsustainable. If you don't want to kill this group of enemies, if you don't say it's not good, you will have to turn to Youzhou!

"General! Let me stay! I can stop them!" Liu Gong's mouth cracked, his eyes red, and he roared out.

"The force must not be wasted, hurry up!" Yi Yan waved his hand, and his horse whip drew towards Liu Gong's mount. The horse flew a few feet out of shock and ran ahead.

Yi Yan said loudly: "Quickly follow Liu Yingzheng withdraw first!"

With a whistle, the soldiers beside him slowed down. How can Liu Gong argue in such a crisis? With tears in his tears, he beat his horse and led his troops and rushed into the mountain col.

He picked up the spear in his right hand, and Yi Yan turned his horse's head. Behind him, the smoke and dust raised by thousands of riders was like a gauze tent, which made people a little vague, only the murderous intent was revealed.

He took a breath. The most difficult task has been completed, and now, he just has to escape back. Just go back to Bingzhou, back to the lord's side...

"Kill me!!"

With a horse belly, the white horse rushed towards the enemy like an arrow from the string!
