Three Kingdoms

Whenever a person thinks that the thing at hand is already the most troublesome, God will definitely let this person understand what it means to challenge the limit.

Just like now, when Fei Qian is still thinking about how to better deal with the endless problems at hand, new difficulties are thrown in front of Fei Qian again...

Wang Yun actually ordered Fei Qian's class teacher to return to Chang'an and King Qin!

Oh my god!

Perhaps Wang Yun felt that Fei Qian was a very competent assister as he had provided assists time and time again. Perhaps he thought it was more reassuring for Fei Qian to stay away from the court and not have much contact with the people in the court. Perhaps Fei Qian released it. Wang Yun actually abandoned many generals in Chang'an and came to seek Fei Qian's help.

This made Fei Qian not know what to say.

In the lobby of the government office, after Fei Qian showed Wang Yun's order to Xu Shu, Zao Zhi and Du Yuan, he thought of Jia Qu in Huguan, Shangdang. This is really a great irony. News came that Yang Zan, the governor of Bingzhou, was "accidentally" killed in the battle to resist Hanoi Fang Yue's invasion of Huguan, but here Wang Yun of Chang'an was waving to Fei Qian...

The current situation across the country is simply chaotic.

"...Zhonglang, this..." Du Yuan finished reading, frowned and said first, "...if we send out troops, this food and grass...I'm afraid..."

Du Yuan was in charge of logistics, and naturally he immediately considered the issues of food, grass, equipment, etc. Fei Qian had just returned from the battle in Yinshan, not to mention that the soldiers still needed to be repaired, and some wounded soldiers still needed to be nursed back to health. Just talking about the food and grass, it is not something that can be obtained only if it is available.

Fei Qian nodded, he knew this too.

Although there is still some surplus food, is it necessary to contribute all the food and grass to the great cause of Situ Wangyun, the most powerful figure in the Han Dynasty? Obviously, it is more appropriate to take Pingyang into consideration.

"...If we don't send troops, we are afraid of being criticized..." Zao Zhi shook his head. He was originally in charge of agriculture. For him, of course he also knew the current reserves of grain and grass, but Zao Zhi also knew that Wang If this order was passed through the Chancellery, some people would know that if Fei Qian refused to send troops, the positive image he had finally built up would be shattered.

This is also a headache for Fei Qian. After the release of his petition to Yinshan, he also achieved good results. During this period, many people came here because of it. Now if he switches his position to the court and ignores the needs of the court, then wouldn't he fight on his own? His own mouth, and then he suddenly fell from the image of a loyal minister who cared about the country and the people to a person who is just trying to gain fame?

Xu Shu twirled his beard and said slowly: "There are disputes among the three auxiliaries, Shandong is not at peace, Xiliang is in chaos, and all the ministers in the court have their own thoughts. It may be more unlucky to enter the capital at this time... If we plan in the long run, we will not send troops." superior……"

As a counselor, Xu Shu certainly had to think more deeply.

Although Xu Shu can be regarded as Fei Qian's friend, he still takes Fei Qian as the main official in official matters. Naturally, he considers the problem from Fei Qian's point of view. In his opinion, the city of Chang'an is now like a whirlpool. The Liangbing rebellion problem, but what about the ensuing problem of the Shandong gentry?

You must know that even though Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu initially used their slogan to oppose Dong Zhuo and safeguard imperial power, now everyone probably knows what these two people are thinking.

If he helped Wang Yun pacify Xiliang, but Wang Yun used him as a spearman to instruct Fei Qian to pacify the two Yuans in Shandong, would Fei Qian go or not?

Therefore, doing more is better than doing less. Although your reputation may be slightly damaged, as long as your own strength is there, you will not end up being purely used as a tool by others.

Fei Qian nodded. As a person from later generations, he was naturally aware of the messy situation during Wang Yun's reign. He also knew that Wang Yun was now a clay Bodhisattva. He didn't know how long he could survive the bloody storm in Chang'an. Even if Wang Yun is lucky enough to be able to hold on longer, and with such a small weight, he has to guard Yinshan, Pingyang, and keep an eye on Shangdang. Now Wang Yun still asks him to lead troops to Chang'an. This is simply... A completely impossible task...

Then ignore Wang Yun's matter?

Or lead troops to Chang'an?

Everyone had expressed their opinions, but it was Fei Qian who had to make the decision, so the three of them all focused on Fei Qian and waited quietly.

Fei Qian thought for a long time and decided to use his own method to solve this problem first...

"Wenzheng, you first prepare a batch of food and grass for about 2,000 people, and arrange for the personnel to transport it to Diaoyin. In addition, this group of Xianbei people first arrange to go to Shangjun area to restore roads and build some grass sheds along the way..." Mr. Fei Qian After telling Du Yuan some basic settings and logistics preparations to be made in advance, he asked Du Yuan to go ahead and make preparations.

"Zhonglang, are you..." Xu Shu pondered for a while, then said tentatively, "...are you trying to watch the fire from the other side?"

Diaoyin is a dangerous terrain on the way from Sanfu to Shangjun in the north. During the Warring States Period, in order to defend against Qin's expansion and aggression, the Wei State built a defense system in Shangjun and built a city in Diaoyin, stationing troops to guard and block it. The development path of the Qin State was maintained.

Because the land of Diaoyin is located between Taichang Mountain and Luohe, the geography is difficult. The Qin State later paid a heavy price to capture Diaoyin City, and used it as a stronghold to wipe out the Wei forces in Shangjun and force Wei The country had to move its capital to Daliang.

Therefore, as soon as Xu Shu heard that Fei Qian was preparing to garrison troops in Diaoyin, he understood that Fei Qian was not very willing to support Wang Yun, or that he was not ready to get involved in the chaotic quagmire of Chang'an so quickly.

Because if we really want to rescue Chang'an, we should take the Hedong route, from Anyi to Shaanxi. If we move faster, we can attack the back of the Xiliang army even before the Xiliang army can react, and Going to Hedong, as the imperial court mobilizes troops, the food and grass along the way will naturally come from Hedong County. Fei Qian can save a lot of food and grass by himself without having to consume his own military food reserves...

Taking the Diao Yin line is obviously slow and wastes food and grass, so Fei Qian's move is naturally not aimed at quickly rescuing Chang'an.

"Haha, yes and no..." Fei Qian smiled and did not give a direct explanation, but said, "...I will dispatch Ma Chengyuan to lead a thousand cavalry to Diaoyin to take control, and then you and I will lead more than a thousand steps. If the pawn goes there, that’s enough, any more will probably hurt the capital..."

Xu Shu nodded and agreed with Fei Qian's soldiers' judgment.

"Zijing, no matter what, it still takes a few days to prepare. When the time comes, Yuan Zhi will follow me to Diaoyin. You should pay more attention to Pingyang. In the past few days, Yuan Zhi and I will take care of the things at hand. Let me hand it over. If you have any questions, please come to me..." Fei Qian said to Xu Shu and Zao Zhi, "...for defense, Tiao Gongming and Zidu will suppress Yinshan, and Pingyang here... Well, that should happen in a few days. Captain Zhao from Montenegro will come and be your deputy, Zijing, and guard this place together..."

"Wei, please rest assured, Zhonglang." Zao Zhi answered with cupped hands.

"Okay, that's it..." Fei Qian said that the discussion had come to an end for the time being.

Watching Xu Shu and Zao Zhi go away, Fei Qian couldn't help but rub his head. He had a headache. What kind of nonsense is this? God, can't you let people take a breather?
