Chapter 232: Two News
Ning Emei was able to from the sixth rank of the phoenix word battalion of low-level military generals, a leap to become a real power from the third rank of the Tiefutu vice generals, obviously dipped with Xu Fengyen close to the light, this time to be able to take the lead in the small courtyard audience with the young king, although belongs to the unexpected, but in the sense, after all, Ning Emei represents the northern Liang army in recent years all the new years were Xu Fengyen promotion of the young and strong generals, Xu Fengyen on Ning Emei showed exceptionally Xu Fengyen has shown extra attention to Ning Emei, and in the eyes of others, this is naturally intentional. Chen Yuntui Zhou Kang, the two highest ranking border army vice marshals in the current heavy mound military town, stepped into the small courtyard right after him, which appeared to be quite moderate. Next Xu Fengyen received Qi Dangguo and Yuan Nanting and others, and then finally summoned that set of perennial stationed in the heavy mound military town of several generals and lieutenants as a finale, a close meeting, Xu Fengyen has always been lukewarm, which the heavy mound generals are not too familiar with the temperament of the young king of the clan, during the period of time, some people want to use grandiose words with Xu Fengyen to express their loyalty to the vote of the heart, the results to Xu Fengyen a smile, lightly on the topic. This made that group of martial artists who had left the traditional officialdom of Beiliang for some years to get up and leave the bench, still anxious, fearing that they had kissed the horse’s hoof in the ass. Luckily, Xu Fengnian’s gesture of personally sending them to the courtyard entrance put them at ease.
This is no wonder they think too much, since Xu Fengyen is in power, in the upper level of the border army secretly has been rumored to have the new Liang King “widowed grace and favor both ways”, and the object of widowed grace, precisely these border army generals, such as the one that will be Lingzhou as their own backyard garden of Huaihua General Zhong Hongwu, not even a result of the end of his life! He didn’t even get a death sentence. As for the general Yan Wenluan, who was entrenched in Youzhou, it is said that he also suppressed a lot of sharpness, and his Tiger Fighting Battalion was taken off the battalion number by Xu Fengyen, and vigorously supported Yu Luan knife, obviously to replace Tian Heng as the main general of the Youzhou cavalry army, and before this, he transferred away from the assassin Tian Peifang who was obedient to Yan Wenluan, and replaced him with Hu Kui who was not heavy on factionalism and had fuzzy hilltop camps, and together with his direct lineage that he had first installed in Youzhou, his beloved Huangfu Ping, this is the most important general of the army in Youzhou, and the most important general of the army in the state. Together with Huangfu Ping, who was first installed in Youzhou, what is this if not mixing sand into the military and political affairs of Youzhou? The relationship between Gu Dazu and Zhou Kang and Chen Yuntui, who are deeply rooted in the border army, is there really no authorization from the young king? Otherwise, an outsider who has not been in the border army for a few years would be able to speak as tough as he did in the Heavy Mound Council? I heard that now the old men such as Yu Tieshan Liu Yuanji Lin Doufang returned to the border army, but also will undoubtedly be a certain degree of division to weaken Zhou Kang Chen Yunzhui and other people’s vested military power.
But no matter what, with and without Xu Fengyen sitting at the center of the heavy mound, is really a world of difference. Regardless of whether or not this deeply sophisticated Liang King will take the opportunity to cleanse the left and right Liangzhou cavalry, as long as he sits in that small courtyard, even if he doesn’t specifically give orders, then the next big battle, can be fought.
Among the many guests in the small courtyard, only one extremely significant Gu Dazu was missing.
Xu Fengyen eventually did not wait for this vice marshal of the infantry army to take the initiative to pay a visit, and after weighing the pros and cons, he also gave up the idea of summoning Gu Dazu. Xu Fengyen has some regrets, regardless of the victory or defeat, the relationship between Gu Dazu and Zhou Kang’s local generals is destined to be difficult to restore, this kind of parting of the ways, unlike the temple officials’ cronyism and interest disputes, but similar to the political views of the opposite triggered by the appearance of the God, the more so, the more difficult to bridge the gap, just as Liyang Huanwing and Zhang Julu in the last minute of the opposite, can not be simple to assess who is right and who is wrong.
Xu Fengyen paced slowly in the small courtyard alone, Wang Sui led the North Mang eastern line of elite iron cavalry’s sudden westward advance, so that the North Liang situation is quite embarrassing, this is probably the so-called heaven does not meet the wishes of man, Yan Wenluan had to split his troops to guard the eastern gate of Youzhou, which is currently tilted to the north, in order to prevent a fire in the backyard, for fear of dragging the entire Lingshou all smoke, in this way, within the mouth of the gourd will inevitably slipped away a few big fish, maybe it is a kind of Tan’s private army, maybe it is a kind of The private army of Tan, perhaps Hong Jingyan’s Zoran iron cavalry, and possibly even the commander-in-chief Yang Yuanzan himself. However, it seems that even if Dong Zhuo has realized that the war situation in Hulukou is not good, and hastily sent troops to Hulukou to echo Yang Yuanzan’s troops inside and outside, it is also unable to change the end of the Liangmang’s main force on the eastern front, Yang Yuanzan will surely be for his previous demolition of the Crouching Bow Luanhe two cities and burned all the fortresses and beacons of the radical initiative, and the results of their own, without the defense fortresses that can be used as a temporary stronghold of the North Mang, the Northern Liang iron cavalry Without these defense fortresses that could have served as temporary strongholds for Beimang, the two-sided attack of the Northern Liang iron cavalry and the Youzhou foot soldiers was fatal. Hulukou situation has been finalized, the key is to see Yuan Zuozong and Yu Luan knife in the end in the end how many North Mang big fish can catch on the chopping board.
The next can be expected Gu Jiantang will take the initiative to attack, Cai Nan and the river and artichoke two states border troops will also intercept Wang Sui east return to the road, this side of the success, the discerning eye can see that is the North Liang to Liyang the entire northern line of opportunity, but Tai’an City for His Majesty the Emperor and Gu Dazhuguo praise at the same time, will certainly pretend to be blind, will only be focusing on Liangzhou Huotou City’s loss of the big fuss, the previous new strategic envoy of the Two Huai Hanlin had a subtle reminder! Xu Fengyen, the court now in the dynastic territory of the implementation of the establishment of section ministers, has been the trend, although temporarily only in the jurisdiction of the major feudal lords to add a deputy section minister, as a way to restrain the historical part-time ministers of the cut-off feudal lords, and is expected to become the new deputy section minister of the North Liang candidates, most likely that in the Guangling Road in the face of the Yang Shenxing.
Xu Fengyen whispered the name Yang Shenxing a few times.
As one of the eight great generals of Liyang, Yang Shenxing was once the emperor of Jizhou, and throughout the second year of Xiangfu, he could be described as a man with his tail tucked between his legs, and this time he risked his life to become the deputy governor of Beiliang Dao, which could be described as a desperate attempt. This time, he risked his life to become the deputy governor of Beiliang Road, which was a desperate attempt to redeem himself with the young prince and the court of Liyang, and also had the intention of giving a final hand to his eldest son, Yang Huchen, who was the new deputy governor of Jizhou. Beiliang and Liyang as well as Yang Shenxing himself, all three parties know very well, running to the Beiliang Road as a festival minister, whether with or without that deputy word, the real power is not compared to the size of an official hat sesame green beans of the lieutenant. Maybe Yang Shenxeng this trip took the initiative to ask for relegation to the northwest, more or less already harboring the heart of certain death.
Because of a Yang Shenxeng thought of the intertwined Jizhou, and then think of the two Liao and Beiliang’s own complex situation, Xu Fengyen had to sigh outside the temple those invisible swords and shadows, is the real killing in the invisible. A small Jizhou, involving Cai Nan, the nominal military hand of the two Huai Dao, although out of power but still hold the Yanbu Li family nearly 10,000 cavalry of Yuan Tingshan, away from the Emperor’s hand Han Fang and means that the family forces to return to the old land of Yang Huchen, as well as the immovable new King Han, and Han Lin behind the interests of the civil group, each involved and checks and balances. And the more vast territory of the two Liao, in addition to the stage of the general leader of the military and political Gu Jiantang, and the identity of the Ministry of War instead of the son of Xu Gong border patrols, rooted in a long time of the old generation of feudal lords Zhao Suo, led by the Peng family of the traditional power of the northern scholars, the four males and stand side by side. Taken out and looked at individually, it seems that everyone is prominent, but in reality, everyone can’t help it.
Xu Fengyen unknowingly stood at the root of the small courtyard wall, stretched out his palm against the wall and looked up at the wall.
The building is about to fall.
Previously, through the summary of the spy report of the water whisking room and the secret report of Liyang only sent to the level of the assassin of each state, the war situation of Guangling Road has been fully reversed to the Western Chu, following the Cao Changqing rate of the navy defeated Zhao Yi’s navy, in the second battlefield west of the capital of the Western Chu, three young people of the Western Chu once again shone brightly, Pei Suo, who was presiding over the Polaris clamor of the political affairs of the Pei Valve, assisted Xie Xiyuan, who had returned from the western front to preside over the defense line, and together they succeeded in holding back the Southern Border! Road number one general Wu Chongxuan led the river crossing army, and in the scattered warehouse in the battle led 20,000 light cavalry dead Yan Zhenchun army of riding general Xu Yunxia, is across the river to attack the rear of the southern border army, cut off the two main grain and grass routes, not only slowed down the pressure on the western front of the western chu, but also equals to break away from the four lines of the yang parallel to the common siege of the capital of the western chu strategy for the western chu in the south of guangleng river in the vast area of the vast area of the valuable to the very deep strategic depth, in order to cooperate with the western front of the western front of the western front, and in order to cooperate with the western front of the western front of the western front of the western front of the western chu Strategic depth, in order to cooperate with the western line of the southern border army and choose to fast westward Zhao Yi army, suddenly fell into the situation of the lone army, Zhao Yi under the banner of more than 30,000 more than the direct line of elite soldiers who specialize in mountainous terrain, was Cao Changqing with 10,000 foot troops and two groups of only 3,000 of their respective number of light cavalry, Zhao Yi’s bottom of the army nearly broken, in just half a decade to eat up all of them. If it were not for the fact that Lu Shengxiang, the commander of the Southern Expedition, had entered the southeastern battlefield with 5,000 riders, and then the 8,000 foot soldiers had conquered the Drinking Horse and Yangying, and the vanguard cavalry was only 50 miles from Cao’s main force, forcing the Western Chu to give up the eastward advance, I am afraid that Zhao Yi would have been reduced to the second great feudal lord of Liyang to be killed after the king of Huainan, Zhao Ying, who had died on the battlefield.
It seems that Western Chu has been winning successive victories on various battlefields, and has ushered in the most prosperous state since the flag was raised to restore the country.
But Xu Fengyen is very clear, this is actually a blazing fire cooking oil flowers with brocade light only, recovered drinking horse Yangying two places Lu Shengxiang, but is a small test of the bull’s-eye, when the resignation of the Ministry of the army of the position of the general completely mastered the south of the military power, unless it is Cao Changqing personally sit on the north of the river in Guangling, otherwise there is no one who can withstand the pace of the south of the Lu Shengxiang, the previous inactivity, is not only on the surface of the Lu Shengxiang by various aspects of the pulling back so simple. The previous inaction, not only on the surface Lu Shengxiang by the various aspects of pulling back so simple, but the need to cooperate with the court to weaken Zhao Yi Zhao Ying within the military power of the major feudal lords in return, the court of Liyang also acquiesced in the Lu Shengxiang to be sold for a price of behavior. And Wu Chongxuan plunged into the mud of the northern battlefield, why is not the Yanzhi King Zhao Bing watching the fire from the other side of the river is happy to see a situation? The real enemy that Xu Yunxia of the Western Chu would have to face next would be the Southern Border elite of Wang Tongshan, the number one fierce general under the banner of King Yan Zhi. Otherwise, that teenager who killed all the major barbarian tribes in the Southern Border Road, even if he was incompetent and incompetent, even if he was disoriented to the Guangling Road, he would not be so weak to face Xu Yunxia’s sneak attack that he did not even have the strength to fight.
Xu Fengyi suddenly face gloating smile: “small beggar ah small beggar, you are not good now, that the great general Wu must be completely turned to the court, can not help, your southern border road has no reward for his work, but the court side is not the same, Zhennan general, military minister, on the pillar state, or even the big pillars of the state to give up, may die after the identity of a general will be honored with the text beautiful posthumous, so it is really not the same, Zhennan great general, the military minister, on the pillar state, and even big pillars of the state to give up, maybe after death can also be awarded to the identity of the general Text beauty posthumously, so really don’t blame you for wanting to completely tear your face off with Wu Chongxuan, and watched as Western Chu stabbed Wu Lao’er in the ass so hard.”
Xu Fengyen put away his palm, bent his fingers and casually knocked on that wall with a dull ringing sound.
To this day, Bei Liang was dead set against Bei Mang’s million-strong army. Zhao Yi, who claimed to be rich in the world, had already beaten his family to death in the face of Xichu. The old King of Jing’an, Zhao Heng, took his own life to give his son a hereditary replacement, and the King of Huainan, Zhao Ying, became the first vassal king since the Spring and Autumn Period to die on the battlefield. Zhao Suo of Liaodong has been cautious for half a lifetime since he became a vassal. Originally the strongest King Zhao Bing of Yanzhi, second only to Northern Liang, in the blink of an eye, Wu Chongxuan took all the troops and horses in the northern part of the Southern Border Road and defected to the Liyang court, which is said to be a major injury to the vitality of the people.
All of this was naturally the machinations of the late Emperor Zhao Dun and Yuan Benxi, as well as former Chief Minister Zhang Julu.
It had nothing to do with the current Son of Heaven.
Xu Fengnian sneered at the wall, ”Zhao Zhuan, you, ah, are a hundred thousand miles behind your father. When you use up the Yong Hui legacy left behind by the older generation, do you think you can still easily control this world’s power? Gu Jiantang, Chen Zhibao, Lu Shengxiang, Zhao Youling, Yin Maochun, which one of them, are you able to hold at will?”
Then Xu Fengnian was silent for a long time, asking himself, “Then me?”
There was no answer.
Just at this moment, Gu Dazu strides into the small courtyard, spare this famous general of the Spring and Autumn Period can not suppress the excitement in his words, his voice trembled, “Your Majesty! There are two pieces of news ……”
Xu Fengnian laughed: “Two news? Then it’s good to hear the bad news first, the good news at the back is used to suppress the shock.”
Gu Dazu laughed out loud and said, “Disappointed Your Majesty, both are heavenly good news!”
For Liuzhou, Xu Longxiang, Kou Jianghuai and Shi Fu personally led 5,000 riders to Qingyuan!
In Youzhou, excluding the vanguard general Seed Tan who is nowhere to be found and a portion of Hong Jingyan’s Zojiran iron horsemen who escaped from Hulukou.
Together with General Yang Yuanzan, there are forty-six Northern Mang generals alone, all of whom were killed in battle!
Inside the Hulukou, sixteen huge capitals were built!
In the second year of Xiangfu, under the premise of absolute inferiority of troops, especially under the critical situation of the fall of Hutou City in Liangzhou, Northern Liang defeated 350,000 Northern Mang with more than 100,000 deaths of its own three states’ border troops.
The Northern Liang Iron Horsemen are the best in the world.
