Royal Road - Chapter 256

[Chapter 255 | City]

Ding Shao, the prefect of Jizhou, was also in Qinghe, but not in the government office, but on the sickbed.

“Cough, cough… Thanks to General Yi’s assistance, we can get out of trouble…” The man leaning on the couch pressed his throat and coughed and said with difficulty.

His appearance is not bad, and there is some splendid air between his eyebrows, but it is now covered by sickness.

That day, he insisted on the Xindu, until the city was broken, and the state soldiers desperately escorted him out.

It is a pity that Ding Shaoli was shot in the battle by the chaos of soldiers on the road. In addition, he was too frightened and depressed, and he fell ill when he arrived in Qinghe.

Connecting to see Yiyan, it can only be in the room.

Facing the ill-faced Inspector Ding, Yi Yan rarely did not have a cold face, and persuaded: “The Inspector should take recuperation first. This time the rebel army has been defeated by the last commander, and Qinghe will be safe.”

However, this comfort did not let Ding Shao satisfy.

He struggled to stand up: “The chaotic army has escaped a lot, and I will never let it go. I am afraid that there are still cities in Jizhou that will suffer from military disasters. It is a pity that I compare myself to Wang Pengzu and Gou Dao, but even a single rogue I

can’t resist…”

He said, naturally Wang Jun and Gou Xi.

These two men had great achievements in battle, and they were the first-class generals in the court.

In his early years, Ding Shao also started his life by military exploits, and he managed the state and county more politically and litigiously.

Who would have thought that a rogue who suddenly entered the country could bring chaos to Jizhou.

Now that he is seriously ill in bed, Ding Shao’s heart is even more uneasy.

“This time the leader of the bandit is extraordinary, and the state and county soldiers and horses may be difficult to deal with. If it were not for the help of the governor, the last general would not be able to defeat him.”

Yi Yan’s words were not excuses.

When he left Zhao County, he had planned to go straight to the enemy camp, taking advantage of the fact that he had just breached Xindu, neglecting to take precautions and destroying it in one fell swoop.

But following the scout’s letter, he found that the leader of this group of rogues was more difficult to deal with than he imagined.

Even when the city was broken and looted, there were not too many flaws in the rogue camp, each division performed its own duties, and the defense was extremely tight.

After all, his own troops were too small, so Yi Yan changed his strategy and contacted Ding Shishi in Qinghe to jointly complete this strategy of dividing his troops to defeat the enemy.

No matter how good you fight, there is only one opponent.

As long as he is separated from the army under his command, there is an opportunity.

And these men and horses under him are rogues who have turned from people to bandits.

If there is a fight against the wind, everyone can lead the way. Once the establishment is destroyed and the command is lost, eight out of ten | nine will be defeated.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, the Yellow Turban Army was like this.

Tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans could be beaten by thousands of light cavalry and fled in all directions. Which of the heroes fighting for hegemony did not rely on this to make contributions?

It is precisely because of this that Yi Yan dared to let go of his actions. He defeated the weak twice and played a time lag.

Of course, this confidence is also inseparable from the five hundred horse armor that the lord left him.

All the horse armor seized from Liu Cong was brought to Yecheng by him.

This is the only thing that no one else can give.

Looking at the Jie general in front of him who was not shocked, Ding Shao sighed: “I heard that the rogues who escaped are mostly horse soldiers. I will issue orders to the counties to let them stick to the city. Just catching up with this group of thieves will be difficult.”

Cavalry sieges rely on speed, and there are chasing troops behind, I am afraid they will not attack those cities that cannot be defended.

If all the county guards can stand guard and reduce the chance of the city breaking, it is not difficult.

But also, the speed of the thieves was too fast, Yiyan only had 2,000 cavalry on hand, so he would definitely not be able to catch up.

The harm caused by such a wandering chaos soldier is still not small.

“The Governor of Wang may not ignore it. As long as the rogues attack Youzhou, they will definitely attract Xianbei cavalry.” Yi Yan had a plan to deal with this.

Ding Shao was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: “I heard that General Yi has appeased several counties in Zhao County?” The

topic suddenly turned to this, and it was his intention to talk about it. Yi Yan raised his eyebrows and did not hide it: “Exactly. If there are no thieves in the city, the people will be in trouble.”

After coughing a few times, Ding Shao said with difficulty: “Please also ask General Yi to lead the troops to help me stabilize Jizhou.”

The meaning in this sentence is to acquiesce to him. action?

Yi Yan couldn’t guess what the other party was thinking, but he didn’t bother to guess, and simply nodded: “Inspector Ding just wants to recuperate in peace, Jizhou is the barrier of Sizhou, and I will do my best.”

Looking at the awe-inspiring expression of this Jie Ren, Ding Shao sighed inwardly.

How could he not know Wang Jun’s plans for Jizhou?

Now that there is another Yiyan, I am afraid that it has something to do with Liang Zixi, the prefect of Bingzhou behind him.

Just in comparison, Ding Shao is more able to accept Yiyan’s “help”.

Although Wang Jun’s troops and horses were strong, the Xianbei cavalry were greedy and unrestrained. When they captured Yecheng and Chang’an, it was difficult to measure the burning, killing, and looting.

The soldiers that Yi Yan led were not like this at all.

Anding County, sheltering refugees, is a real emergency, not looting.

This alone is the difference.

Ding Shao has a high self-esteem and is also quite talented, and has always regarded Dong Zheng as his ambition.

This defeat has really hit his self-confidence a lot.

If he really wanted to choose, Ding Shao would of course choose someone who could appease the people and live up to his lifelong beliefs.

This person will never be Wang Jun!

Closing his eyes tiredly, Ding Shao nodded slowly: “There is General Lao Yi.”

Walking out of the medicinal-smelling bedroom, Yi Yan also exhaled the depression in his chest.

This Inspector Ding reminded him of the man in Bingzhou.

Perhaps the officials of the prefectures and counties in the world are not all like Wang Ping and Pei Dun, who only serve their own selfishness and bring disaster to the common people.

It’s just that they lack the heart and wrist like the lord.

Qinghe City has not been breached, and the city still has a rare and stable scene.

Although the pedestrians on the road were a little frightened, there was no sorrow or fear of being displaced.

Yi Yan has seen many horrible sights along the way.

Women who fell down the road, children in the house starved to death, and even beasts that ate everything they could eat to survive… How could those innocent and good people suffer such calamities?

Someone should stop this mess.

The desire to kill the bandit leader of the same clan has not diminished, but it is no longer Yi Yan’s main concern.

How to annihilate that chaotic army and how to save more people is what he should do.

And these are not all for the Lord.

Eyes swept across the bustling street, Yi Yan took another step and walked out of the city.

※

Even if there is Xingdao, and there is fast delivery, it will still take a lot of time for the news to come from Jizhou.

Liang Feng has been restless these days!

Reason tells him that Yiyan will not act recklessly, and that he must have a plan when sending troops.

But the anxiety in my heart will not be reduced in the slightest.

If Shangdang sent troops, the connection between him and Yiyan would not be able to hide the people from Luoyang.

But at this moment, where can I take care of so much!

After waiting for seven or eight days, the secret letter was finally delivered to the desk.

When he saw the contents of the letter, Liang Feng felt like he was empty-footed, showing a dumbfounded expression.

Zhang Bin sighed deeply: “General Yi is truly invincible in a hundred battles, and he can win even like this!”

Yes, in the face of tens of thousands of troops, Yi Yan twice defeated the partial division and the main camp, forcing the bandit leader to escape.

There are tens of thousands of soldiers who surrendered after the war alone!

And the letter he sent from Bingzhou only said one important thing, which was to send money.

The treasures found in the camp were loaded into carriages and transported along Fukouxing to Jinyang.

Just gold and silver, no more than ten cars!

That group of rogues simply emptied the treasury and aristocratic family in Jizhou, and now they are all cheap.

“Boyuan asked for food in the letter. It seems that the situation in Jizhou is not good.” The initial surprise was suppressed, and Liang Feng finally cleared his mind and continued to look down.

In addition to sending money, Yiyan also asked for food and grass.

After conquering the camp, the food and grain obtained were not few, and it seemed that they could not feed the people who had lost their homes.

When the imperial court allocates food, I don’t know when it will be pushed, and if it can’t catch up with Xiazhong, Jizhou will be completely deserted.

“Sneak some food over here.” For this, Liang Feng would not hesitate.

It just so happened that Zhao Jun was also under the control of Yiyan, so even the imperial court might not be able to detect it if it was shipped from Leping Kingdom.

“I heard that Inspector Ding also relied heavily on General Yi. As such, it should not be difficult to occupy the southeast of Jizhou.” Zhang Bin said calmly with a smile on his face.

According to common sense, Ding Shishi’s show of kindness should be quite worrying.

After all, Yi Yan is alone now. If there is another governor who trusts him more, everyone will be beaten in their hearts, for fear that he will vote for someone else.

But the treasure of this car completely dispelled doubts.

Zhang Bin has now determined that there is absolutely no doubt between the lord and General Yi.

Knowing each other between rulers and ministers is the most stable cornerstone of the great cause.

With this major premise, everything else is trivial.

Liang Feng nodded, acquiescing to this statement.

The letter also wrote a lot of things, including Yiyan’s next strategic plan.

Basically, he followed the chaotic army and drove the thieves into Youzhou.

Wang Jun had always coveted Jizhou, but now that he has such an excuse, he should not let it go.

It’s just that the thief leader was unexpectedly cunning. If Wang Jun couldn’t keep him, he would be in trouble.

“I didn’t expect that the leader of the chaotic army is also a man. I wonder if Wang Jun will be able to exterminate him?” Liang Feng sighed softly.

He is really lucky now. If he hadn’t picked up Yi Yan himself, would he have been among the bandits, burning, killing and looting, and using his outstanding military talents on the opposite side?

Zhang Bin said: “Wang Pengzu’s Xianbei soldiers and horses are in vain? And with General Yi by his side, Jizhou will eventually be settled.”

At that time, it was time for the two states to fight.

How could Liang Feng not know the situation that Bingzhou is about to face?

“The locust eradication campaign in all counties should be carried out early. There is also the Buddha’s birthday next month, and we can also take the opportunity to hold a dharma meeting to calm the minds of the people.” Withdrew his thoughts, Liang Feng put his eyes in front of him.

Zhang Bin does not believe in Buddhism, but he is well aware of the role of Buddhism in calming the people, especially the Hu people. Naturally, he will not object: “Bin will do it now. But there is one thing that the lord should not take lightly. There are many wise men in Jizhou and Yanzhou, and there are many more. I won’t be called up by the imperial court. If you can hire a virtuous person, you will have a great career!”

Liang Feng’s heart skipped a beat, by the way, isn’t there still a famous striker in this era?

Where is he now?

For whom?

In this era, it is true that the family is corrupt, but there are still many people who have left their names in the history.

Does he have the courage and ability to control these capable officials and generals?

Looking at Zhang Bin with bright eyes in front of him, Liang Feng could only feel a sense of pride in his chest. He stroked his knees and smiled, “Meng Sun reminded me very much. You should send more people to visit and seek talents in the wild!”

Zhang Bin In fact, there are some concerns, for fear that with the channel of system system, the master will be closed to himself.

Now that I got the approval, I couldn’t help but be overjoyed: “Bingdang will do his best to honor the master!”
