If you want to ask whether his selfishness is important, it depends on which angle you look at it.
If the desire for fame and wealth can be considered selfish, then his selfishness is very important. From this perspective, everyone in the officialdom has selfishness, almost without exception.
Therefore, when he returned to Jinyang, due to selfish motives, when Chen Kenji asked to leave, he did not deliberately stop him.
It's enough to have him as the only one who knows the truth. There is no need for so many people to share his credit and attract others' attention.
After entering the city of Jinyang, he heard that Shi, the governor of Bingzhou, had been removed from his post. He acted selfishly and lied to Yu Wenxin when he asked about the civil strife in Yanmen.
He told everyone with certainty that he had personally witnessed the entire process of the Yanmen civil strife. In order to dispel everyone's doubts, he vividly described everything he imagined about the Yanmen civil strife.
At this time, if Yu Wenxin did not doubt that he was there, but still hesitated, then Qi King Li Yuanji and everyone in the Qi Palace gave full support to immediately sending troops to Daizhou to join Chen Xiaoyi and eliminate Li Po's gang members.
At this time, Yu Wenxin withstood the pressure. In his opinion, sending troops to replace the state was not expected, and sending troops hastily would inevitably lead to mistakes. Moreover, he could not trust Chen Xiaoyi.
Li Yuanji and other people who strongly advocate sending troops do so because they want to get away with it. No matter how many high-sounding words they say, they cannot raise large armies because of this. This is a taboo for military strategists.
Therefore, under Yu Wenxin's insistence, he even argued with Li Yuanji in public. He strongly suppressed the suggestion of sending troops to Yanmen immediately.
Afterwards, Jinyang scouts went out to inquire about Loufan and Yanmen counties.
In fact, this is the quality that a leading general should possess, and this quality is extremely rare.
But then again, sometimes, this quality is also called indecision. In fact, no matter what, war is all about the results, not the process.
When you win, naturally all praises are given. When you lose, no matter how beautiful you are, you can't escape being humble.
The news sent back was very messy and the time was too short. News from many detectives could not reach Jinyang in time.
The news that came back was very clear. Su Dan, the prefect of Loufan, raised troops and came to Yanmen.
Two days later, there was news from Mayi. Wang Lu, the prefect of Mayi, and Yu Chigong, together with Yuen Long of Heng'an Town, raised troops and were heading south one after another.
Everything seems to indicate that the three counties of Daizhou are indeed in chaos.
Later, a request for help from Chen Xiaoyi, the prefect of Yanmen, also arrived in Jinyang, asking Jinyang to quickly send troops to Yanmen and work with him to defeat the various rebels.
Everyone gathered in the General Manager's Mansion again to discuss.
This time, Yu Wenxin did not wait for anyone to speak, but insisted on sitting back and watching the civil strife in Daizhou. When all the people in Daizhou were hurt, he sent troops to Yanmen to clean up the mess.
The patience of King Li Yuanji of Qi has reached its limit. Every day that passes, Chang'an may send an edict, asking him to relinquish his post as the governor of Bingzhou and return to Chang'an to promote others. In his opinion, this is the day that Yu Wenxin has been waiting for.
He wanted to monopolize the power of pacifying Daizhou.
In anger, he scolded Yu Wenxin and said: "There is civil strife in the state today, the Li thieves are dead, and Chen Xiaoyi intends to join me. It is such a great opportunity, but you sit back and ignore it, being timid and have ulterior motives, thus delaying the opportunity to fight."
"If Daizhou is taken over by the remnants of the Li thieves, it will become a serious problem for me. After I return to Beijing, I will definitely let my father punish you for your crimes. Hehe, the Yuwen clan is such a big family..."
With his cold, snake-like eyes and vicious words, even a person like Yu Wenxin could not help but feel a little chilled.
At this point, Yu Wenxin knew that he could not wait any longer.
He had already offended the King of Qi Li Yuanji to death, so he had nothing to fear, but there was still the Fufeng Dou family watching covetously... At this time, Yu Wenxin found helplessly that if he did not send troops today, no matter what happened to Daizhou in the future
In this way, Yu Wenxin's fate will not be good.
In fact, the reason why he proposed to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight was because of helplessness. Jinyang did not have many soldiers and horses. If he sent troops to Daizhou, once he was defeated, Jinyang would be empty and might be taken advantage of.
Especially since Li Yuanji had completely broken up with the Wang family of Jinyang, it was really stupid to send troops to represent the state despite having such a serious enemy in Jinyang city.
Do you want Jinyang anymore? Do you still want Hedong?
But facing the red-eyed Li Yuanji, the Dou brothers and others, Yu Wenxin's previous thoughts of uniting with the lieutenant generals to suppress these people suddenly disappeared.
He also has to think about his wife, children, and children. Although the Yuwen clan is also a powerful clan in Guanxi, its cohesion is far inferior to that of the Jinyang Wang clan. Under the luxuriant branches and leaves, Yuwen Xin is not
It's worth every branch's efforts to protect it. Maybe some people will even add insult to injury to please the Li and Dou clans.
After thinking about it like this, Yu Wenxin lost all confidence, but finally said quietly: "Since His Highness is determined like this, then the general will have no choice but to obey orders. Can Your Highness give me two days to gather troops and horses and prepare food and fodder?"
"Moreover, when heading north to Yanmen, we must first defeat Fenyang..."
The dispatch of troops was certain, and the people headed by Li Yuanji were relieved. Yu Wenxin was deeply trusted by Li Yuan, and no one wanted to see such an unpleasant commotion.
Now that Yu Wenxin has decided to send troops, except for Li Yuanji who still feels resentful, the rest of them have nothing to do with themselves. Dou Jing interjected at this time: "General, don't worry, those who guard Fenyang and Fenyang Palace are the ones guarding Fenyang and Fenyang Palace."
Chen Taishou's old troops will definitely not send troops to stop us when the time comes."
Yu Wenxin smiled. Being able to capture Fenyang easily made him feel a little relieved. Of course, Dou Jing didn't need to talk about this anymore. He had already said it before.
Speaking of this matter, Dou Jing is undoubtedly showing his goodwill.
Fenyang was the gateway to the north of Taiyuan. It was lost to the hands of Daizhou Li Po, which greatly increased the threat to Jinyang, which really made Yu Wenxin feel like a stick in his throat.
If Li Yuanji hadn't caused a lot of trouble and Li Yuan had issued an edict telling everyone not to act rashly, he would have sent troops to retake Fenyang long ago.
"As soon as we get to Fenyang, if we want to rescue Yanmen, we actually don't need to meet up with Chen Xiaoyi. We can go straight to Loufan and cut off Su Dan's retreat. His army will collapse."
"After defeating Su Quan, he went north to seize Loufan Pass and became at odds with Yanmen. How could the soldiers of Mayi still dare to make a move?"
When it comes to strategy, Li Yuanji and others can only listen now.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Yu Wenxin finally let out a breath of bad breath and said to himself, these wine bags and rice bags only know how to talk nonsense, but they know nothing about leading troops in battle. I came to Jinyang to lead troops, and I have been unlucky for eight lifetimes.
But since he decided to send troops, he must talk to these people patiently, damn Bingzhou Governor's Office.
"I heard that Li Po's command has many cavalry and soldiers, who are raiding back and forth as fast as the wind. Jinyang's soldiers and horses are mostly infantry, so when marching to fight, we should camp step by step to avoid being taken advantage of by the enemy..."
"In this case... please give me full authority, Your Highness, and everyone will obey orders, otherwise..."
After Li Yuanji heard this, he immediately sneered in his heart, but said lightly: "I am the general manager of Bingzhou, and I will take the lead and set an example for everyone. General Yuwen, let's see if he wants me to be a pioneer or something."
?”
Yu Wenxin was suffocated immediately, and he couldn't speak to these words.
In his opinion, it is best for Li Yuanji to stay in Jinyang to defend the city. Of course, this is also a bad idea. Like him, without the control of others, he might dare to lead troops to break into the Wang family's home and kill Wang.
The head of the clan was washed with blood.
And if he is allowed to go out with the army, then the military power will undoubtedly be in the hands of the general manager of Bingzhou. Even if it is in name only, the relationship between the two people is now impossible to work together, which will definitely give Yu Wenxin a huge headache.
The muscles on Yu Wenxin's face twitched. After thinking about it, anger surged out of his heart. He really had no interest in such a war.
With a stiff smile, Yu Wenxin looked at Li Yuanji and said: "Since your highness cannot trust the general, then the general will stay in Jinyang to defend the city. Your highness can lead the troops north, and the general will protect the army in Jinyang without any worries."
How is it?"
Everyone else was startled, and there were not only one or two people who wanted to change the situation. All the generals in Jinyang who were good at conquering and fighting had followed Li Yuan south, and only Yu Wenxin was managing the army in Jinyang.
If he stayed in Jinyang to defend the city, and followed Li Yuanji to Yanmen, everyone thought it was too unreliable. His Highness, King Qi, had only followed his brother to suppress bandits in the past two years.
He is neither like Li Jiancheng, who has been in the army for many years, nor like Li Shimin, who has gone through many wars in a few years and has lost his prestige in the army.
But before anyone could say anything, Li Yuanji smiled and said: "In this case, I will do my duty and take care of General Yuwen for the retreat of the army. In the future, when we discuss merits, General Yuwen will be the first among them all."
At this time, Yu Wenxin's lungs were about to explode with anger. He stared at Li Yuanji for a while, then stood up and said: "Your Highness, please take care of yourself. I will leave first because I am not feeling well..."
Yu Wenxin didn't even show any courtesy and turned around and left.
Everyone has heard of this kind of thing, but they have never seen it with their own eyes, but now they are watching helplessly as the general's feud has reached such an irreversible point.
With a bang, Li Yuanji threw the tea cup on the ground and said angrily: "This person has bullied me too much. I will get rid of him in the future."
His words never seemed to go through his mind, so everyone was silent. At this time, no one who wanted to please King Qi was willing to agree. Dou Jing's eyes widened, as if she didn't know Li Yuanji.
, looked at him several times.
At this time, the sequelae of Li Yuan's nepotism first appeared in Jinyang.
In fact, the number of people who can be used by the Li family is far less than he thought.
After Yu Wenxin returned to his residence, he immediately wrote a letter and sent it to Chang'an to describe today's events. He said he was ill at home and ignored everything else.
King Li Yuanji of Qi finally took over the military power in Jinyang, and began to deploy cronies aggressively, and made preparations to send troops to Yanmen.
(Acao checked the information and maps carefully again. Fenyang is indeed north of Jinyang and connected to Xihe County in the south of Taiyuan. At this time, Xihe County was changed to Haozhou by Li Yuan, but he couldn’t find out whether it was Xihe County.
Under the jurisdiction of the county, because looking at the map, he is within the scope of Taiyuan County.)
