Although one's own basic status no longer requires risking one's life to gain wealth, but a man is born between heaven and earth, and when he leans forward and breathes, he stands upright, how can he rely on the merits of his elders and wait to die without doing anything?
His own Erlang was extremely talented. In Fang Xuanling's view, life and death were minor matters, and whether he could make a feat that would shock the past and be remembered for generations to come, that would be his lifetime achievement.
The danger of sending troops to Mobei is certainly not small, but the situation is extremely favorable. Xue Yantuo's army that invaded the border area was completely lost, which will definitely leave Mobei empty. If Erlang can find a smooth road to attack Yu Dujun Mountain, he may be able to create something shocking.
Maybe Shuo Jin can match Wei Huo's unparalleled achievements...
Fang Xuanling said solemnly, "Don't make such stupid remarks again! If other families' heirs went into battle, their families would cry in front of His Majesty. How would it be unethical? Do we need to do important military and national affairs? Can my Fang family be lost?"
Have that face!"
Mrs. Lu wiped her tears and nodded: "Okay, I am a woman, so I won't go make trouble in front of His Majesty. But you, Fang Xuanling, are not a woman, right? You can go to the palace for me now, and we won't ask the emperor to transfer Erlang."
When we come back, can we just ask the emperor to send more troops for reinforcements? Xue Wanche is in Dingxiang City, and Song Junming is in Shengzhou. Both of them are strong generals, so let them send troops for reinforcements immediately."
Fang Xuanling was unambiguous, nodded and said: "Okay, I will enter the palace right now..."
…
What to do if you don’t enter the palace?
A husband and wife have been bickering for half their lives, how can they not know what the temperament of the old wife is? If today I were to say "a man has lofty ambitions", he would surely cause endless trouble.
How could a wise man like Fang Xuanling make such a low-level mistake?
Seeing that his old wife had calmed down, Fang Xuanling did not feel ashamed at all for being "a weak husband". He turned to his daughters-in-law and said: "Erlang has a city in his heart. He seems reckless, but in fact he is meticulous in his actions. Youtunwei has passed his orders
All the drills adopt brand-new drills. Even Duke Wei recently praised it as the first-class strong army of the Tang Dynasty. Xue Rengui, Xi Junmai, Gao Kan, Cheng Wuting, etc. in the army are all generals with both wisdom and courage. They are absolutely
Don't worry about the people of Xue Yantuo. Xue Wanche, Song Junming and other famous generals are following closely to protect the rear formation. I will enter the palace immediately and ask your majesty to mobilize troops from Shuo, Sheng and Ling states to go for reinforcements. There is no need to worry too much.
"
The female relatives felt a little relieved.
*****
News from northern Xinjiang spread back to Chang'an, causing shock in both the government and the public.
Who would have thought that not only did His Majesty suddenly fall ill just before the Eastern Expedition was about to begin, causing the Eastern Expedition plan that had been prepared for many years to be temporarily put on hold, but that northern Xinjiang was already in raging war?
Xue Yantuo's army came to Dingxiang City, intending to invade the Chile River in Monan. The Eastern Turkic Khanate collapsed at the first touch and retreated to Yanmen Pass.
The iron cavalry achieved the greatest military exploits after overthrowing the Gaochang Kingdom. Fang Jun even led the Youtun guards out of Baidao and went straight to Xue Yantuo's tent in Yu Dujun Mountain...
A series of news came one after another, surprising everyone in the court.
Is this going to start a war?
Weren't we still discussing the marriage two days ago...
Zhao Guogong Mansion.
In the main hall, Changsun Wuji and Yu Wenshi sat opposite each other.
Just after the New Year, the weather was cold, the earth dragon was burning in the hall, and the tea set was placed on the tea table. Changsun Wuji had already driven away all the maids, and poured tea for Yuwen Shiji with his own hands.
The water vapor is curling up and the tea is fragrant.
Yu Wenshiji didn't have the slightest thought to taste the fragrant tea...
Changsun Wuji picked up the teacup and took a sip. When he saw Yuwen Shihe frowning, his aging face became more and more sluggish and old. He no longer had the gentle and gentle demeanor of the scholar, and he felt sad in his heart.
, then he comforted him and said: "The matter has come to this, even if my brother is worried, what's the use? Yu Wenfa did something wrong indeed, and Fang Jun took advantage of it and deprived him of his military power. In such a situation,
Your Majesty, in order to stabilize the situation in Northern Xinjiang, there is no way your Majesty will let it go easily, so you should make preparations as soon as possible."
He tried to persuade Yu Wenshiji to look away, but he himself was filled with panic.
What place is Mayi City?
It is located in northern Xinjiang, close to the Yinshan Mountains. It was the place where the Xianbei people started, the base of the six Xianbei towns, and the headquarters of their Guanlong nobles!
As a result, in his own base camp, as a descendant of the Yuwen family and a leader among the younger generation of Guanlong nobles, Mayi guard general Yu Wenfa was captured by Fang Jun in public in the military camp and deprived of his military power.
, escorted back to Beijing.
The impact of this incident on the reputation of the Guanlong nobles was far greater than the loss of Yu Wenfa's loss of the Mayi guard!
If you can't even defend your old nest, who can you expect to be in awe of the Guanlong nobles?
Changsun Wuji was originally ready to get angry, but when he saw Yu Wenshi and his decrepit appearance, the anger that had been pent up in his chest suddenly dissipated.
This outstanding man who was able to remain calm when his younger brother Yu Wenhua and regicide usurped the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and wisely made the decision to join His Majesty Li Er, has also grown old and his glory is gone. It is as if they have lost everything to each other.
The glorious years that have passed.
Maybe the mahjong table is already more suitable for them.
After all, I am still old...
Yu Wenshiji smiled bitterly and shook his head, sighing: "The traitor Yu Wenfa is a treasonous person. He is reckless and greedy for personal gain. He actually relies on the country's weapons for personal use. This is actually a way to die. Therefore, even if he is sentenced to death, the old man will not feel it."
I'm sad. I'm just afraid that His Majesty Long Yan will be angry and take this opportunity to vent his anger on the Yuwen family. If the Yuwen family fails to recover in the hands of the old man, how will he meet his ancestors in the future? How ashamed!"
The corners of Changsun Wuji's eyes twitched slightly, and he suddenly woke up.
This old man is indeed very old, but if you see his old lady and mistakenly think that this is just an old man who cares about the name and future of his nephew, that would be a big mistake.
Being able to recognize the king of His Majesty Li Er from the troubled times such as the late Sui Dynasty, and then stand unswervingly beside His Majesty Li Er to provide full support, and finally seek the current political resources for the Yuwen family.
View it?
The old tiger is here!
No matter how cliche the tiger is, you can't lose your mind for a moment, otherwise he will bite you...
Yuwen Shiji's words seemed to be regretful, but in fact he was telling Changsun Wuji: Losing one Yuwenfa is not a big deal, and the Yuwen family can afford it.
But if His Majesty vents his anger on the Yuwen family, causing the entire family to be affected, that would be unacceptable.
What does it mean to "rely on the power of the country for personal use"?
Isn’t it because this is the will of the entire Guanlong noble group!
All the Guanlong nobles wanted to treat the expulsion of Xue Yantuo as a cake to gain military exploits, and could not accept others coming to share a piece of it. That's why Yu Wenfa blocked Youwuwei, and Youtunwei left the pass and went north. Now Yu Wenfa was defeated by Fang Jun.
If he is taken down, his crime cannot be escaped. If he suffers alone, that's it. Who said that everyone is a grasshopper on a rope?
The Yuwen family recognized it!
But if the emperor takes the opportunity to weaken and attack the Yuwen family, you cannot sit idly by and ignore it...
Changsun Wuji clicked his tongue and glanced at Yuwen Shiji helplessly.
This old guy is acting rogue...
But at present, the Guanlong nobles are in turmoil, with fierce internal struggles, and they seem to be falling apart. Facing the emperor's suppression and weakening, they should unite together sincerely, otherwise the emperor will seize the loopholes and divide and attack, which will be bad.
Therefore, facing Yuwen Shiji's rogue tricks, Changsun Wuji really had no way to refute.
Even if there was a way to evade it, he would not do it.
In the final analysis, Yu Wenfa was indeed taken over by Fang Jun in order to keep control of the northern border for the Guanlong nobles. If he was ignored, it would inevitably cause strong dissatisfaction and a strong backlash from the Yuwen family, and other families would inevitably feel the sorrow of the rabbit dying and the fox dying.
If people's hearts are lost, how can they lead the team?
After thinking about it, Changsun Wuji said: "Fang Jun sent a battle report before the resistance, and mentioned that Shi Xiao Siye, the governor of Shanyu Governor, went to Baidao to announce the decree, so he went straight out of Baidao and sent troops to Mobei. However, this matter is quite strange.
At that time, neither the disciples nor Zhongshu had any news about it, and suddenly the imperial edict arrived in Northern Xinjiang... Xiao Siye was a descendant of the Xiao family, and was related to Fang Jun by marriage, but the two had always had a grudge.
It is impossible that there are some unknown dirty things in this. Fang Jun has always been bold, so how could he know that he was not using his sword in vain to take the opportunity to send troops? He could also get rid of Xiao Siye, which is really a strategy that kills two birds with one stone! We might as well do this in this matter
If you make more fuss, as long as you can seize Fang Jun's handle, although it won't completely wipe him out, it will still be a plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao, and your Majesty will definitely not hold on to Yu Wenfa's affairs."
Yu Wenshi nodded repeatedly.
He glanced at Changsun Wuji and sighed in his heart. If he could find a loophole in the completely passive situation, he would not only be able to move back to a disadvantage, but could also hit Fang Jun severely. He has a delicate mind and deserves to be called a "yin man"
Nickname...
Changsun Wuji paused for a moment and then said: "Let everyone be prepared. Fang Jun is too wild-minded. Do you really think that Xue Yantuo is a fool? At the foot of Wuyang Ridge, Xue Yantuo lost all the right time, place and people, which led to the disaster.
Defeated at the hands of Xue Wanche. But when it comes to Mobei, it is the place where Xue Yantuo has lived and thrived for generations. Throughout the ages, except for a few talented people, who else can make a surprise attack from thousands of miles and go straight to Dragon City? Fang Jun will definitely lose!
Once he is defeated, we will work together to clean up the mess!"
