Three Kingdoms

This period of time has been a complete ordeal.

The endless hustle and bustle in the Guanzhong of Chang'an also created Fei Qian's reputation; the orders for seeking talents were spread all over the world, and people all over the world began to turn their attention to Bingbei again.

Because when Yang Xiu followed Liu Xie to leave Bingbei, although he passed through Hedong, he kept a secret about Fei Qian's situation. He basically didn't care about the left and right, but just made fun of him, which made Wang Yi itchy with hatred and helpless.

Zhong Shao and Zhongjie seemed to have reached some agreement with Fei Qian. In the past few days, they heard that there were constant messengers coming from north to south, which made Wang Yi even more nervous. Chi, the messenger sent to Heluo to contact Yang Biao, He hasn't come back for a long time, which can't help but make Wang Yi have some not-so-good thoughts in his mind.

Because he had an affair with the Wei family in Hedong before, Wang Yi was very proud of his stay in Hedong. He had received a lot of property and real estate as compensation from the Wei family in Hedong, and his life was nourished. However, the Wei family's century-old heritage is not easy to break up. In addition, he heard that Wei Ji was working for Cao Cao, which seemed to be quite good. Wang Yi inevitably started to murmur in his heart.

If there is a war, it is not impossible for Wang Yi to go into battle with a sword and supervise the battle, but it is very difficult to be as brave and skillful as General Fei Qian of Zhengxi. Now the Wang Yi family has just started. If it collapses midway, Wouldn’t it be that all the previous efforts were in vain?

The ambition to dominate the world was not something Wang Yi didn't have when he was young, but now as he gets older, it has gradually faded away. Naturally, there are people in the world who will fight for it. I just want to stay well in Hedong. Only by keeping my position can I be free and comfortable in Hedong!

Wang Yi knew this very well, so when Fei Qian sent Huang Cheng here, although it was a bit of a slight, Wang Yi didn't take it seriously at all. Instead, he smiled all the way to the southern suburbs of Pingyang. outside.

It was far away and he couldn't see clearly. Now that he was walking in, Wang Yi looked around and saw the outline of the southern suburbs camp. His face instantly turned pale...

Such a large area of ​​land to build a camp?

How many soldiers does this have to accommodate?

How many soldiers does General Zhengxi have?

Before Wang Yi could think about the answer, he walked a few more steps and saw a three-color flag sticking out high in front of the camp, flying in the air. A man sitting steadily on the saddle came up to him. With more than twenty armored cavalry guarding him at the rear, the person who came was none other than General Fei Qian of Zhengxi.

How long has it been since we last met?

The magnanimous general Fei Qian in front of me...

Wang Yi was already a little surprised.

Perhaps Fei Qian's high position has cultivated his magnanimity, or perhaps Wang Yi himself had some speculations in his mind. This young man who originally wanted to borrow land from him changed his gentle look with a smile on his face. Now he is covered in The fierceness in his eyes and his eyes were so bright that Wang Yi didn't even dare to look at him. He only felt that his body seemed to be stinging.

Times have changed, and today's Fei Qian is very different from when he first entered the north with hundreds of people. Back then, not many people would take a descendant of the Heluo branch seriously. If it weren't for chance, Wang Yicai and Fei Qian would have some intersection...

Later, Fei Qian defeated the Baibo Army and officially took the position of General Protecting the Hungarian Zhonglang. If Fei Qian was not in the north and blocked the southward Xianbei road, it would be somewhat useful. Otherwise, Wang Yi would have long thought about taking Yong'an. The county seat of Puzi was taken back.

Even if Yang Biao and Fei Qian fought in the future, Wang Yi was still trying to get both sides. As long as Fei Qian showed a little bit of shame, or acted slightly inappropriately, naturally a lot of people would immediately turn around. The dough, without much thought, would be like a rotten dog, surrounding Fei Qian and eating it.

However, in a daze, Wang Yi suddenly discovered that this boy who was originally a side branch has now become a giant with sharp teeth and claws...

As soon as he saw Fei Qian's figure, Wang Yi hurried forward. Before Fei Qian could make any gesture to welcome him, he dismounted his horse and bowed his head deeply to the ground, saying hello with great humility.

Fei Qian chuckled and stepped forward to help Wang Yi up. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. No wonder a group like the gentry could flourish during the three or four hundred years of the Han Dynasty. It remained standing and was always parasitic on the body of the Han Dynasty, knocking the bones and sucking the marrow. There was one The very important reason is that they are able to bend and stretch, and deeply understand the harmony...

Although the various surnames of the noble clans are working hard to bring benefits to their own families, they are also often married to each other, forming a huge network of relationships over hundreds of years, just like in Kyoto in later generations, no one knows what will happen if a brick is photographed. The leader will not be implicated. In the Han Dynasty, the aristocratic family already had a huge network of relationships connecting the royal family, eunuchs, relatives, and Qingliu. Within such a network, there were more or less default rules of the game and models of mutual interests.

This is how courtesy should be reciprocated.

Of course, this gift can also be divided into two types...

"Wang Shijun..." Although Fei Qian smiled, there was not much warmth in his eyes, "You want to see Jiuyuan this time?" There is indeed a Jiuyuan County in the north, but it is obvious that Fei Qian's meaning is not Not referring to this Jiuyuan.

Wang Yi was stunned for a moment, and after pondering for a while, he finally came to his senses. He smiled in embarrassment and said: "What the general said is absolutely true. It can be said that it is beneficial to the king. He will not forget his own life, seek his own safety, and never leave his friends behind." also……"

Fei Qian stared at Wang Yi for a while, then nodded and said: "Good. Please let the king speak in your tent..."

Between the questions and answers between the two people, their basic opinions have been settled.

Although Wang Yi had a smile on his face, he was a little surprised as he followed Fei Qian into the camp. Is it difficult for this Fei Qian to claim to be Zhao Wenzi?

Zhao Wenzi, not to attract mosquitoes, of course has a name that everyone is familiar with, the orphan of the Zhao family, one of the famous Six Qings in the Spring and Autumn Period...

It is said to draw lessons from history, but for the nobles of the Han Dynasty, the history that can be used for reference is actually not long. The so-called Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in ancient times are mostly mysterious. I am afraid that if some of the relevant deeds are true, it is considered very good. Naturally, it cannot be used as a reference for one's own behavior.

The only era that is relatively complete and can be used for reference is the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Therefore, it is not surprising that there were some behaviors or measures in the Han Dynasty that were similar to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

In Wang Yi's mind, Fei Qian's current self-comparison seems a bit rebellious, but it is also reasonable...

Wang Yi couldn't help but smile in his heart. This would save him some trouble, so he felt a little more relaxed. He looked around and said: "The general's men are so majestic. It can be said that the military is at its peak..."

Fei Qian smiled and didn't say anything. Instead, he waited until they entered the Chinese army's tent and the two of them took their seats, and then he slowly said: "... Today's soldiers can't do anything without money. Now they are stretched thin and overwhelmed. That’s it…”

Wang Yi chuckled and said: "Now the general is so powerful in Mobei that the barbarians dare not go south... I admire you so much. I came here this time. I also know that the general is in urgent need of food and grass, so he will transport 50,000 shi of food and grass. He will arrive soon." , to help the general..."

Fifty thousand dan sounds like a lot, but in fact, when the number of people in the army is large and the food is evenly distributed, it is not much.

But it has more or less the same meaning, a meaning of kindness...

Wang Yi stroked his beard and said: "At the moment, there is no response, and His Majesty went to Heluo..."

Wang Yi quickly glanced at Fei Qian, but unfortunately, he could not detect anything, so he continued with some regret: "...I also took away a lot of money and food, and now the warehouses in Hedong are also empty..."

Fei Qian cupped his hands to express his gratitude, and then said nothing, just waiting quietly.

Wang Yi did not let Fei Qian wait, and then said slowly: "In Pingyang, the traffic is smooth and the ditches are complete. When the autumn harvest comes, they will be able to eat..."

"It's about food?" Fei Qian frowned slightly. Of course, there seems to be nothing wrong with the sentence on the surface, but Fei Qian heard some mystery in it.

There is a long string of words in ancient scriptures without any sentence. There is no punctuation in the text. It is like seeing a long series of black dots arranged on the bamboo slips. It can only be divided based on personal understanding and reading ability. Come up with paragraphs, otherwise you won’t know what the meaning is...

The original text of this sentence should be "...there will be no level and no difficulty, no return, no regrets, no regrets, no regrets, good food, blessings...", but such a sentence can be read as "...no leveling, no loss, no return" "No more, there is no blame for hardship and chastity, don't be sorry for your blessings, you will be blessed with food...", it can also be read as "...no flatness, no slope, no way, no return, hardship and chastity, no blame, don't be sorry for your blessings..." , in food, you are blessed...", and it can even be read as other patterns. For example, Wang Yi said, only taking four words, "It is good in food."

And the word "Fu" in it means more, there are about ten kinds of shapes, and which one of them does Wang Yi mean?

Fei Qian was silent for a while, and then said: "King Cheng sent Jun Jiyan... This is how the bud mulberry matter should be..."

Wang Yi nodded and said with a smile: "What the general said is true... Alas, now that I am old, although Hedong is small, there are still a lot of documents. I am already tired of my body and mind. I can only encourage Sangzi, but I have no time to do it. Gu... Fortunately, things are going well in Zhuanghe, east of Hedong, this autumn. The autumn gifts will be collected in the future, and I will transport more with my spare time to help the general guard the border..."

Fei Qian smiled slightly, looked at Wang Yi, and assessed the authenticity of Wang Yi's words.

I have to say that Wang Yi is still very good at life.

He first sent some grain and grass, and then said that he would send some more after the autumn harvest. This invisibly left an impression on Fei Qian that there would be long-term benefits.

At the same time, Wang Yi vaguely expressed that he had no ambitions and could not care about other things. He just wanted to mess with Sangzi in Hedong. There was no conflict with Fei Qian...

"... So I thank Wang Shijun..." Fei Qiangong cupped his hands to express his gratitude, and then changed the subject and said rather sharply, "... I wonder what Wang Shijun should do if Lin Jinhou is also short of food and grass? "

"this……"

Fei Qian's sudden and direct question made Wang Yi frown. Saying that he will definitely ignore Yang Biao, no matter what, he will not support even a grain of food or a soldier?

Not to mention Fei Qian, even Wang Yi himself would not believe such an answer.

But if you say that you will still support Yang Biao, doesn't it mean that all the goodwill preparations before have been in vain?

I originally thought that I could fool him, but I didn't expect Fei Qian to confront this issue so directly. After thinking about it, Wang Yi let out a long sigh and could only lay out the last card he had prepared on the negotiation table...

…………………………

"What the Lord is saying is..." Zhang Liao was a little surprised after hearing Fei Qian's words, "...someone is going to garrison Shaanxi and Jin?"

Fei Qian nodded and said with a nostalgic look: "Exactly... Looking back on what happened back then, I feel a little dazed... Why, Wen Yuan has other ideas?"

There was originally a camp stationed at the pontoon bridge in Shaanjin. After it was burned down, it was never rebuilt. Now Wang Yi's proposal is to ask Fei Qian to send people to garrison such a key point connecting with Hongnong County and rebuild the ferry camp.

In the final analysis, Wang Yi did not have the courage to face Fei Qian's troops directly, and naturally he did not have the courage to openly fall out with Yang Biao, so he could only use this method, which was similar to deceiving others.

As long as Fei Qian's soldiers occupy Shaanjin, it will naturally be impossible for Yang Biao to transport food, grass, soldiers and the like through this ferry. Wang Yi can also publicly declare that he does not want to give Yang Biao supplies. , but unfortunately it can’t be shipped out...

Unless Yang Biao is really prepared to turn against Fei Qian and start a war, he will naturally be cut off from the road to Hedong.

Of course, such a move is beneficial to Wang Yi. At least now he only needs to contribute one share of the money and food, not needless to say, both the north and the south have to pay. When there are threats from both the north and the south, Wang Yi can only choose to take care of the one in front of him first. At least there is a big river between Hongnong and Hedong, but there is a vast plain between Pingyang and Anyi...

From Feiqian's point of view, it is also advantageous. Occupying Shaanxi and Jin cuts off the most convenient communication channel between Hedong County and Hongnong County, which means that the territory of Hedong in the south will be relatively safe and stable, although it is not His own control range and so on, but it is unlikely that when Fei Qian moves his troops elsewhere, Yang Biao or others will pretend to go to Hedong and raid Pingyang.

Therefore, although Fei Qian knew that he was acting as a shield for Wang Yi, after weighing it, he felt that the advantages outweighed the disadvantages, so he agreed to Wang Yi's suggestion and prepared to send Zhang Liao to garrison in Shaanxi and Jin.

Zhang Liao laughed and said: "Of course I am willing! I have never thought of revisiting the same place..."

"Good, in addition to your own 800 cavalry, I will send another 200 cavalry and 1,500 infantry to your command... all weapons, money, food, etc. are fully equipped..." Fei Qian grabbed Zhang Liao. Then he patted his arm and said, "I only need one to guard Shaanxi and Jin! If there is an emergency, send a horse to report it!"

Zhang Liao cupped his hands and accepted the order: "I will obey your order!"
