"Even if Yu Wenxian doesn't move them, they should be able to sense the threat by now," Li Xingchen said directly, "Let's see how long they plan to wait for the price."
Among the three rivers, Hedong produces talents, and they are often ambitious talents.
For example, the Sima family in Wen County is a well-known ambitious family.
And when it comes to sensing the direction of political trends and swaying accordingly, the Hedong aristocratic families are indeed good at it.
However, now that the front lines of the Han Dynasty and the Northern Zhou Dynasty have pushed to Hedong, naturally they cannot help but waver back and forth in the middle of the Hedong family. If they are still not sure who they want to follow, then the end result will be simultaneous suppression from both sides.
Since you don't want to be my friend, I can't let you become my enemy's friend. The easiest way is to erase you directly.
Of course, Yu Wenxian would not dare to uproot the Hedong family, but he could still use the army to firmly control them.
When a scholar encounters a soldier, there is no reason to explain it. The scholars of the Hedong family have nothing to do against a weapon, and you can't stop them from taking your head. As for the clans in each family, although they are quite numerous,
But usually it is enough to look after the house and guard the courtyard. Let them go into battle to fight against the Xianbei cavalry, or against the Han army, so it is better to save the time.
Therefore, it is time for the Hedong Family to take a stand.
Yu Wenxian mobilized troops and horses to Puzhou, which naturally meant to pressure the Hedong family to express their stance.
"Your Majesty, should we continue to contact Yecheng to test Pei Ju's attitude?" Yang Su said with a frown.
"No need." Li Xingchen waved his hand, "Pei Ju knows who is strong and who is weak. He will make his own decision whether to be buried with Yu Wenxian or to follow us. If I send someone to take the initiative to show kindness, I don't know what Pei Ju will do.
The lion opens his mouth wide."
Yang Su was startled for a moment and nodded slightly.
Now Yu Wenxian obviously no longer believes in Pei Ju, so he mobilized troops to pressure Wenxi Pei to express his attitude, otherwise he would never have gone to the extent of mobilizing troops.
After all, putting a sword on the neck is real persecution. There is no need to expect that Pei Ju can really be of the same mind as the Northern Zhou Dynasty. But at least the Wenxi Pei family's wealth, reputation and connections can be used by Yu Wenxian. This is for
Good stuff to strengthen people's hearts.
Since Yu Wenxian has been like this, it means that even Yu Wenxian himself no longer believes that Pei Ju will still stand unswervingly with the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
Naturally, what Li Xingchen had to do was wait.
Wait until the Hedong Family comes to ask for help.
"But what if?" Yang Su was a little worried.
What if Pei Ju really gritted his teeth and followed Yu Wenxian?
"Wouldn't that be just right?" Of course Li Xingchen understood what Yang Su wanted to say, "When the army enters Hedong, it's just right to catch them all in one fell swoop!"
After a pause, Li Xingchen stretched out his hand and pointed on the sand table: "Didn't Yu Wenxian send troops to Puzhou? Then I might as well do the same. I sent troops out of Puban to attack Puzhou. Isn't it convenient to find out whether Yu Wenxian is true or false?"
Know!"
"This" Yang Su looked at Li Xingchen in surprise, and after a moment he suddenly realized.
The staff members couldn't help but whisper to each other.
This was indeed something they had never thought of before.
Since you don’t know the reality, let’s explore it. Attack is also a defensive method. It is better than spreading the army along the river and looking at the reality on the other side and being in panic all day long. Yu Wenxian is not in a hurry to come over.
, then we will kill it.
Although the Han Dynasty is now facing a problem of food and grass, it is not unaffordable to cross the river with a partial army.
"I just have an idea. The Taiwei Mansion can discuss the specific regulations and judge whether it is feasible or not. You can't just trust my words." Li Xingchen said with a smile, "I want to see a plan that can be implemented before sunset tomorrow.
"
The staff officers immediately raised their heads as if they had been given a shot of blood.
Yang Su also solemnly handed over his hand: "I obey your order!"
Every family has its cupboard.
This year I heard Pei’s book is the most difficult to recite.
In Yecheng, Pei Ju wished he could grow wings and fly directly back to the east of the river, and then escape with his whole family.
The first time Yu Wenxian sent troops into Hedong, he asked the Wenxi Pei family for the food needed by the army. The Wenxi Pei family was the biggest local snake in Hedong, so it was understandable for the Northern Zhou army to do this, but the meaning behind it made people wonder.
Pei Ju shuddered in his heart.
Yu Wenxian was clearly telling himself that the lives of the entire Pei family are now under the control of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Even if you, Pei Ju, are "in the Zhou camp and your heart is in the Han Dynasty", you are not allowed to do anything extraordinary for me.
Come, otherwise it will be as good as yours.
Pei Ju felt aggrieved by this, because in fact he did not get together with the big man, he just expressed his intention to the big man first and secretly passed on some information, especially since this information was not a secret to the big man.
, so the big man does not have any trust in Pei Ju. The information you gave us is already known to us, and your use value is not very high.
However, the Northern Zhou Dynasty was already very wary of Pei Ju.
The troops were sent out of Puzhou not only to contain the Han army, but also to monitor the Pei family.
For a moment, Tangtang Wenxi and Mrs. Pei turned into a rat in the bellows, with no human beings left and right.
Pei Ju was also very depressed. If it had been any other time, even for those fools from the Gao family of the Northern Qi Dynasty, the Wenxi Pei family would have been a very important force. If we could unite, we should unite, and we must not push them to the opposite side.
.
But the current situation is that Li Xingchen doesn't like him very much, and Yu Wenxian also wants to get rid of the Wenxi Pei family and then quickly.
In an instant, Pei Ju had to admit that the world had changed.
As the Han Dynasty abolished the aristocratic families and became more powerful, the status of the northern aristocratic families also began to gradually decline, because both Yu Wenxian and the Xianbei generals began to realize that these seemingly prestigious aristocratic families were not really
They can respond to a hundred calls and completely disturb the peace of a place. In front of the state violence agency, they can only shout slogans. The private soldiers and tribes of the family usually just serve as a facade. When the battle breaks out, will they escape in the face of the battle?
It's all a problem.
After three hundred years of turmoil, the aristocratic family is no longer as aloof as it was in the Han Dynasty, and no one can only look up to it with bated breath. It can even be said that Li Xingchen has pulled out the last fig leaf of the aristocratic family, allowing the world to see clearly.
The aristocratic family is nothing more than that.
Therefore, at this time, it was not so easy for the Wenxi Pei family to try to have both sides. Without the aristocratic family, Yu Wenxian still dared to challenge the Han Dynasty; without the aristocratic family, the national power of the Han Dynasty was also growing.
For both parties, the existence of the aristocratic family is not even a icing on the cake, let alone a timely help. It has become a burden.
