"Time flies like an arrow, and the sun and the moon fly..."
Fei Qian stood in the courtyard, raised his head, looked at the skylarks flying in the sky, and murmured softly.
If I were still a clerk in future generations, I'm afraid this sentence would be indispensable in the year-end report...
The rulers and the ruled are always on opposite sides, like water and fire, irreconcilable. The rulers hope to always be at the top, never to resist, and always enjoy the rich fruits of exploitation, just like Fei Qian is currently collecting
The same as the autumn poem.
Is Fei Qian's act of collecting land tax not exploitation?
hehe.
Just look at where your butt is sitting.
Are rulers always bad?
Are the ruled always good people?
Right and wrong, good and evil, can never be so easily distinguished. Oppression and resistance have always been opposites, but overall, these two behaviors are actually only a matter for a small group of people.
The vast majority of people are still confused and only looking at what is in front of them...
Huang Yueying sat behind Fei Qian and used a thin comb to comb Fei Qian's hair with gentle movements. The horn comb gently touched the scalp, which was slightly itchy, but very comfortable.
Fei Qian looked up at the sky, watching the white clouds fluttering in the sky, and his black hair hanging down from his head...
If it hadn't been for the Han Dynasty, Fei Qian would never have imagined what he would look like with long hair, and the mark of his crew-cut hair in his mind gradually lost its color, gradually and quietly faded and disappeared.
Just when Fei Qian felt that he was a little bored, suddenly a rapid sound of horse hooves stopped outside the courtyard, and then the guard's report came:
"Report! Zuo Fengyi urgently reports to the military!"
A guard rushed over holding a bamboo tube.
Fei Qian checked the fire paint, then broke it open and took out the towel. After scanning a few lines up and down, he pondered for a moment and then gave the order: "Send the order! At three o'clock, discuss matters in the government hall!"
The roots of my hair were suddenly pulled and hurt...
Huang Yueying sped up, combed her hair three times and put it up, took out a wooden hairpin and tied it up, then silently waved to the maid holding Fei Qian's crown, took the crown and put it on for Fei Qian.
.
Fei Qian held Huang Yueying's hand with his backhand and remained silent.
After a long time, Fei Qian squeezed Huang Yueying's hand slightly, then let go, stood up, and walked to the front hall.
In this world, if there are gods, then these gods must have the greatest pleasure in playing with humans. Whatever humans want, they will find ways to get it awkwardly and will never let humans get it easily.
: "The Test of the Gods".
Things always happen suddenly and violently, and they are always unplanned.
"Huh? The Zhao family has launched troops?!"
Zhao Wen, who was in Chang'an, had been slow and slow, and there had been no movement for a long time. However, he did not expect that after the winter came, he launched a brazen attack and led his troops to surround Zhong Shao's Lingyi and launch an attack...
For a moment, the political hall became quiet.
Zhong Shao and Zhao Wen will have a battle sooner or later. This is something that everyone knows very well. After all, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Although Guanzhong is big, it is small and pitiful for Zhong Shao and Zhao Wen who have already developed a deep gap.
"...Zhao probably had no choice but to do this..." Xun Chen had been running around for a while and had just returned to Pingyang. He was obviously a little thin. He coughed slightly and continued, "After all, the Zhong family in Guanzhong has deep roots.
For many years, although the Zhao family had led Jingzhao Yin, they still lacked their position. In addition, with the continuous battles, Chang'an's warehouses were empty! If the Zhong family was not defeated in one fell swoop and shocked Guanzhong, the Zhao family's Jingzhao Yin might have reached the end...
"
"... From Pingyang to Diaoyin, half of it is a mountain road, and from Diaoyin to Zhengxian, half of it is also a mountain road... Now the cold winter is coming, plus the freezing rain the day before, if there is more rain and snow, then...
Even if the army moves forward, this mountain road will inevitably be difficult to navigate..." Jia Xu said slowly, "The Zhao family is very afraid of our cavalry, so they are eager to attack them now..."
Zaozhi was silent for a while and said: "...the cultivation in Guanzhong is mostly destroyed... In my opinion, if the Zhao family cannot pacify Chang'an and outside before the spring plowing, there may be no hope for the autumn harvest next year! Raising troops in winter is certainly risky.
, and it makes sense..."
Fei Qian nodded while listening.
War has always been like this. Although it sometimes seems to come out of the blue, in fact the roots have been planted very early.
Zhao Wen originally thought that Zhong Shao must be doomed, so he happily took over the position of Jing Zhaoyin, but unfortunately, Zhong Shao did not die, and using Fei Qian's name, he actually competed with him in Guanzhong.
On the one hand, in order to stabilize Xia Mou, Zhao Wen has already spent a lot of money and food. If we don't understand the Shao farming issue as soon as possible, then if the situation continues, once Zhao Wen has no money and food to supply to Xia Mou,
Then the original balance will inevitably tilt. Therefore, under such a situation, it will naturally become Zhao Wen's best choice to force Xia Mou to participate in the battle to attack Zhongshao while he can still control it.
choose.
As for Xia Mou...
At this time, almost no one cares about what Xia Mou thinks. After all, no matter from which aspect, except for having some soldiers in his hands, Xia Mou seems to have no strengths. Before, he was a kind of Shao.
His puppet is now Zhao Wen's puppet. Who would care about a person who is willing to just be a puppet?
"...Xu Yuanzhi has led his troops to station in Liyi..." Fei Qian looked around slowly and said, "...What should we do in the current situation?"
Xun Chen pondered for a while and said: "According to my opinion, it is better to wait for the defeat of the Zhong family before rushing to Chang'an, defeating the Yang family in one fell swoop, and seizing Guanzhong. If we just sit back and ignore it, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Hongnong in Guanzhong to succeed.
It’s a good opportunity…”
Zao Zhi hesitated for a while, frowned and said: "...Although the harvest this autumn is good, there is not much storage after all...If we raise another large army...this army ration...In addition, if we attack Guanzhong, we will capture the county seat."
, how will we arrange the spring plowing next year?"
Jia Xu's eyes flickered and he said nothing. He didn't know what to think about anymore...
Fei Qian looked at Pang Tong, who had been sitting on one side without speaking, and asked, "I wonder if Shi Yuan has any insights?"
Pang Tong cupped his hands and said with a smile: "...this matter, Yi Er..."
…………………………
Hongnong.
A group of people is walking westward in a leisurely manner.
Although it has already entered winter, the river has not yet frozen. Although most of the leaves on the surrounding mountains have withered, there are still some coniferous trees standing proudly. The river here is wider, and the rushing water is still somewhat
Restless, the water splashed with broken jewels and jade, and it was extremely noisy.
On one side of the river, because of the convenience of watering, there are some villages gathered in areas suitable for farming. At this moment, there are still many farmers gathering their fields and trimming some ridges and ridges before the heavy snow comes in winter.
, so as to facilitate farming in the coming year.
However, right now, we can still see many uncultivated fields, which are already overgrown with weeds...
The land of Hongnong, since Liu Xiu established his capital in Luoyang, has been prosperous and peaceful for a long time. Although there are occasional intrusions by barbarians, they cannot last long and will recede in two or three months. Therefore, generally speaking, it is still stable.
.
Except this time with Dong Zhuo.
This time the capital was moved, almost half of the population of the counties along Hongnong was plundered!
Fortunately, Dong Zhuo was beheaded soon, and the matter of relocating the population was shelved. The relocation of people to Guanzhong was not continued, and Hongnong barely breathed a sigh of relief.
But even so, Hongnong was deeply injured. This was supposed to be fertile land, but now it had to become a wasteland, which can be seen from this.
This group of men and horses passed by, startling the farmers working in the fields. Later, they saw that this army horse was under the banner of the Yang family, and they were relieved.
Since the Yang family returned to Hongnong, they have been rectifying the officialdom, restoring the country, arresting thieves, and restoring defense. Except for recruiting some people to repair Luoyang City, other labor has stopped, so overall,
It was still okay, and there was no intention of fishing all the water, so the people around him slowly relaxed and returned to the fields.
Some of the country nobles who were originally near Hongnong were taken to Guanzhong by Dong Zhuo. Now only one out of ten has returned. Some, seeing that the situation was not good, abandoned their fields and fled south with their families, resulting in
Many fields here have become ownerless land again, which has become Yang's best tool to appease these farmers...
Among this group of men was a middle-aged scribe who had never worn armor and was only wearing a half-new and half-old cloak. He had three long beards and a slightly thin figure.
After bidding farewell to Yang Biao from the Hongnong County Government Office and taking over such an army, Yang Jun felt somewhat uneasy.
Yang Jun was originally a branch of the Yang family. His ancestors went to Hedong to develop in the early years. Later, he followed Yang Biao back to Hongnong from Hedong and returned to the main family. Naturally, Yang Biao wanted to take charge of Luoyang.
He lacked skills, and Yang Jun had some knowledge of military strategy, so he was able to catch a duck and command such a soldier.
This journey has been pretty good.
The Yang family of Hongnong has a deep foundation and was originally one of the top clans in the world. Now that it is clear that horses and chariots are going to compete for a place in the world, they will naturally try their best to dig out the family wealth. Now is the time when people are arrogant. Some people who were originally
The private soldiers of the Yang family also turned around and became officers and soldiers of the imperial court, and also obtained many military positions.
Therefore, although Yang Jun did not give detailed instructions, these veterans who had been on the battlefield all arranged everything in a loud voice. The morale among the soldiers was also good, and they seemed to have the same look.
.
Of course, Yang Biao had his own arrangements for the defense in the east, and Yang Jun didn't worry about it. However, Yang Jun was a little worried about things on the west side, and was slightly worried.
Now, the attitude of the governor of Hedong, Wang Yi, is neither good nor bad, but it can be seen that he is caught between Fei Qian and Yang Biao, that is, he is wavering. People like this are naturally the most disliked, but
Yang Jun also understood that if he were in Wang Yi's position, he might not be able to do much better.
But one thing is certain, that is, Wang Yi did not dare to challenge Fei Qian, and he also did not have the courage to offend Yang Biao.
Therefore, the Hedong line can be left alone for the time being.
However, Guanzhong...
Guanzhong is so important.
The power of the Zhong family is actually not that big. If it weren't for the hidden agreement between Zhong Shao and Fei Qian, Zhao Wen would have been able to deal with it by himself. But now, it has naturally become a trouble.
The key is not Zhong Shao, but Fei Qian, the general who conquered the West!
If Fei Qian, the General of Zhengxi, leads his troops out of Diaoyin and goes south along the pass, depending on the current situation, there is really not much way to stop the cavalry of General Zhengxi...
In the land of Guanzhong, except for some ravines and mountains in the north and south directions, there is a flat river in the middle. If Fei Qian's cavalry rushes into it and goes back and forth, and Zhao Wen or Yang Jun, who don't have many cavalry, will
That is to say, they are all helpless and helpless.
Therefore, Zhao Wen, the Yin of Jingzhao, wanted to use speed to defeat Slow this winter. He first eliminated Zhongshao, a hidden danger in Guanzhong, and then joined forces with Yang Jun to camp in Zuo Fengyi's plan. Yang Biao's approval was obtained.
Only by blocking the opening of Diaoyin can the entire Guanzhong be safe.
Guanzhong is safe, and Hongnong has a stable rear. Otherwise, if there are two Yuans in the east and the west cannot be stable, it will become a joke for the Yang family to fight for the world...
Pass Tongguan as soon as possible, and then move his army to the left to guard Zhao Wen's flanks, so that Fei Qian, the general of the Western Expedition in Diaoyin and Liyi, will be wary of the troops and dare not leave Guanzhong without authorization, thereby gaining some authority for Zhao Wen.
Give them enough time to attack Lingyi and destroy Zhongshao before they can return to the north.
As soon as Zhao Wen's soldiers arrive, they can form a horned force and defend according to the danger. Fei Qian, the general of Zhengxi, will be attacked from another direction no matter which aspect he attacks. If so, Fei Qian's soldiers will be attacked by others.
, when there is insufficient transportation of grain from afar, and there is no plundering in the wild, the division will end up with exhausted veterans. If Fei Qian insists on not retreating, it will be okay, and he will advance steadily, and he will naturally win victory!
Along the way, thinking about it all the way, in the end, Yang Jun finally got an idea, and then he couldn't help but perked up, pointed forward with his riding whip, and shouted: "Hu County is ahead of us! Along the way,
You all have worked very hard. After arriving at Hu County, you will rest for a day and each team will be rewarded with three pieces of pickled meat and a jar of wine! After setting off the day after tomorrow, we will drive straight to Tongguan without any mistakes!"
There are regulations on drinks and other things in the army. You can't drink whatever you want. But since the general has spoken, naturally everyone is happy. Although the veterans in the army also know that this is Yang Jun's move to win over the soldiers, but who cares?
Well, if you have wine now, you will be drunk now. What’s more, along the way, chewing coarse cakes, your mouth has already become extremely light...
"The general has spoken!" The military commanders or military princes in the army shouted with their necks stretched out, "When we arrive in Hu County, we will have wine and meat! We can still repair for a day! We will set off the day after tomorrow and rush to Tongguan! Directly.
Damn you, you bastards, why don’t you leave quickly! You’re late, and the military law doesn’t recognize people!”
