At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

When Guo fights, he never fights unprepared battles. It is either a defensive battle or a war to destroy the country.

But having said that, in the past few years, that bastard Yong Kai really hasn't caused much trouble.

Huang Zhong, Zhang He and other generals felt relieved, but at the same time felt a little unbelievable.

How could this bastard be so honest and really satisfied after getting the position of governor of Nanzhong?

The arrogant appearance of that guy before was vivid, and all the generals in Yizhou found it incredible.

In fact, there is nothing incredible about this, and it is easy to explain.

Guo Peng didn't hand over the position of governor of Nanzhong to Yong Kai for nothing.

At that time, he made a little judgment and decided that the political ecology of Nanzhong was similar to that of Liangzhou back then. There was no leader publicly recognized by all parties, but a coalition of interests.

When there is a common interest orientation or foreign enemies, they will naturally unite together. If there is no, internal chaos will arise.

The Wei Empire is too powerful and has become the common worry and enemy of Nanzhong. It will naturally make them unite and hide behind Yong Kai to show their teeth and claws. But if he withdraws from Nanzhong's sphere of influence, all this will not be certain.

It would be even more different if Nanzhong found a nominal leader before quitting.

Yong Kai got the position of governor of Nanzhong and officially became the lord of Nanzhong. Although he can order the various forces in Nanzhong in an upright manner, the various forces in Nanzhong are not willing to listen to him.

It's easy to understand when you think about it.

It turns out that everyone is a partner, and they are equal to each other. We have to discuss everything and take into account everyone's interests, which is very good.

But after Yong Kai became the governor of Nanzhong, he really took himself seriously.

He swaggered and gave orders, showing one face today and another face tomorrow, domineering.

If this is the case, it's fine, and everyone swallows their anger, it's not unacceptable.

But Yong Kai doesn't know what's good and what's wrong, he pushes forward and even tries to seize some benefits that don't belong to him.

If you encounter resistance, say "I am the governor of Nanzhong ordered by Emperor Wei", pull up the banner as a tiger skin, and say that Guo Peng is the backer behind you. Kai, Yong Kai soon lost popular support.

Everyone found out that Yong Kai was a bastard, and when he got benefits, he began to domineering and bullying kindness. It is unimaginable that we would elect such a person as a leader.

They all feel cheated.

The anger towards the Wei Empire was also transferred to Yong Kai.

But Yong Kai did have the strongest strength and the greatest prestige, and he was indeed the top leader of Nanzhong in name, so everyone dared not speak out.

Having said that, they also have a lot of plots in private. For example, Zhu Bao, another representative of the South Central Han Dynasty below Yong Kai, and Gao Ding, a well-known barbarian king among the South Central Barbarians, each have their own small circles. He was quite dissatisfied with Yong Kai.

This itself is also one of Guo's plans, and the internal conflicts in Nanzhong are quite sharp.

The contradictions between the powerful Han people and the local aborigines, the contradictions among the Han people, the contradictions among the aborigines, and the contradictions between the central and local governments, etc.

In the early days, there was no nominal leader in Nanzhong. At most, it was the difference between big forces and small forces.

And once Yong Kai became an open leader recognized by the central government, some struggles that could have been suppressed could no longer be suppressed.

In particular, Yong Kai didn't know how to restrain himself. After he got the position of governor of Nanzhong, he actually started to expand his influence to the four counties. In addition to his base camp Yizhou County, Yuexi County, Cang County and Yongchang County, he went to all of them. Mix it with sand.

This made the local forces in the other three counties except Yizhou County very unhappy.

In particular, Yuexi County and Cang County still have the power of the Wei Army. The 5000 troops of the Wei Army Zhang Yun are stationed in the north of Yueyi County, and the [-] troops of the Wei Army Huang Zhong's troops are stationed in the north of Cang County.

In addition, Le Jin's lieutenant, Li Gan, led an army of 5000 troops stationed in Zhuti County, threatening the flanks of Yuexi County and Cang County at all times.

It's okay to face the threat of the Wei army, but Yong Kai still recklessly extended his power to Yuexi County and Cang County, which made them very unhappy.

Yong Kai also noticed these displeasures, but he really wanted to expand his power and become the real king of Nanzhong.

In the end, he even agreed to cooperate with some gentry in Sichuan—because at that time he heard that Guo Peng had just fought a big battle with troops in the north, and he probably didn’t have the energy to fight again in a short time, so he felt that this It is a good opportunity to drive the Wei army out of Nanzhong.

Unfortunately, this is not the case.

And because of his perverse behavior, the local forces in Yuexi County and Cang County turned to help the Wei people and reported the news to Man Chong and Le Jin.

Good guy, now I have found a legitimate reason to deal with Yong Kai.

Man Chong and Le Jin cleaned up the inner ghost, and then sharpened their swords and went to Nanzhong——

Over the years, they have been building roads around the clock in Nanzhong. Basically, the road from Chengdu to Zhuti County has been repaired, and a part of the main artery of the Shu Road in Guo Peng's plan has been opened.

The repair of this road means that the Wei army has the mobility to go south to attack Nanzhong on a large scale. With this in mind, Man Chong and Le Jin received Guo Peng's imperial edict to start the war.

Chapter 1205 One Thousand 110 Five Laws Are Wanting to Go to Luoyang

The internal issues have been dealt with, and Guo, who is unprecedentedly powerful, now has almost unlimited power to do whatever he wants.

So Guo Peng confirmed that the war can now start, and sent the Tiger Talisman to go through the process, and gave Le Jin a holiday, allowing Le Jin to lead the military affairs of Nanzhong.

Let Man Chong act as the general manager of logistics to raise logistics for Le Jin, and there must be no mistakes.

Fa Zheng, an official of the staff station, was ordered to serve as the general staff of the army to advise Le Jin and out.

Lejin led an army of [-] from Shu to attack Nanzhong, flatten all the four counties of Nanzhong, restore the central government's direct jurisdiction over the four counties of Nanzhong, and reset counties.

Le Jin was very happy, and immediately started to plan the process of this battle, and called the staff officer Fazheng who was deeply appreciated by Guo Peng, and asked him to discuss the battle with him.

Le Jin didn't know why Guo Peng admired Fazheng so much, and often mentioned Fazheng in orders or letters sent to him, but he knew that the people Guo Peng admired were the ones he wanted to take care of, so he always took good care of Fazheng.

"Xiao Zhi, in my opinion, this battle should be fought wisely. The barbarians of Yuexi County and the local tyrants of Cang County can both take advantage of them. They have long been dissatisfied with Yong Kai. Once we go, they will definitely watch the wind And surrender, and help us fight."

Le Jin said confidently: "We have been preparing for this battle for so long, so we should fight it smoothly."

Fazheng smiled.

"Your Majesty's order is very clear. The general is asking for the peace of the four counties of Nanzhong, but he didn't say how to fight. That is, let the general play. As long as the general can take down the four counties of Nanzhong, that's fine. Others, Your Majesty Don't care."

In the Luoyang incident, regardless of his status as a scholar, he took the lead in expressing his support to Guo Peng, Fazheng, who was full of confidence in abolishing the examination and establishing the imperial examination, and offered advice to Lejin.

Le Jin frowned.

"what do you mean?"

Fazheng smiled.

"General, the general situation of the world has changed. Now, the sentiment of the people in Nanzhong can no longer affect the overall situation. Instead, it will be bad for the hearts of the people to care about this and that."

"How do you say that?"

Le Jin was a little confused.

"General, before the incident in Luoyang, the battle of Nanzhong had to be a little restrained, and we had to rely more on the powerful families in Nanzhong. After the battle, it was inevitable to give them some benefits, but after the incident in Luoyang, all of this will come to an end. It doesn't matter anymore.

General, the situation has changed. The situation is completely in His Majesty's hands. His Majesty's will is everything. His Majesty can have whatever he wants. My Wei foundation is already extremely solid, and it will definitely not be shaken by a little rebellion. And looking around, I, Wei, have no enemies. "

Fazheng said: "Your Majesty has spent so much money and built so many roads, what you want is the whole Nanzhong, a clean Nanzhong where no one competes with His Majesty, a Nanzhong where everything belongs to His Majesty and becomes a king's land. of Nanzhong.

Those tyrants, manors, and barbarians are unnecessary and can be used, but after they are used up, they should be cleaned up immediately, and no way of life should be left for them. The places where the Wei army passed by were all Wei soil, and there was no other place except for the common people. ! "

What Fazheng said made Le Jin feel incredible.

Of course he knew what happened in Luoyang, but as a scholar, Fazheng, as a scholar, actually supported Guo Peng so blatantly and endangered his interests, so that his descendants could not easily become officials through the investigation. Is this something he would like to see?

What the hell is going on with this man?

And what he meant was that he wanted me to break my promise?

"Abandon it after using it. Is such a treacherous move something Master Wang can do?"

"Since it's Master Wang, how could it be possible to break faith? Everything Master Wang did was right. Only thieves would insult Master Wang, so the culprit must die. Since the culprit is dead, how can there be talk of treachery?"

Fazheng's sophistry made Le Jin feel unbelievable. Of course he couldn't say such a thing, but Fazheng was able to say it without changing his face or beating his heart.

At this moment, Le Jin suddenly felt that Fa had secretly established a certain relationship with His Majesty the Emperor, otherwise, how could he have done such a thing and said such a thing?

Moreover, Le Jin felt that something hidden in this person's heart seemed to be gradually revealed.

This feeling made Le Jin instinctively feel that he shouldn't get too close to him.

But in any case, as a military staff officer, Fazheng's housekeeping skills are still sufficient.

In recent years, he has planned several routes for Le Jin to enter Nanzhong in Shuzhong, which are all his own conclusions after running on the spot and exploring. This is very promising.

After some discussions, by the end of the seventh year of Yande, the plan to dispatch troops had basically been determined.

They plan to use about a month to transfer various strategic materials to Zhuti County, Yuexi County, and Cang County, and then start the war against Nanzhong around mid-to-early February.

Before the start of the war, the staff team began to plan to make a joint proposal to the anti-Yongkai forces in the counties of Nanzhong——

It just so happens that everyone is unhappy with Yong Kai. In this case, it is better for everyone to join hands to kill Yong Kai, and then divide up the benefits, and divide up Yizhou County, Yong Kai's hometown.

Don't worry, our Wei Empire has a very small appetite, just take a bite, just a small bite, and never eat more!

Fazheng and Deng Zhi went to Yuexi County and Cangcan County respectively, with the purpose of bringing the suggestions of the Wei Empire to the local snakes in Yuexi County and Cangcan County.

Before they split up, the two of them had to walk together for a certain distance.

The relationship between the two can't be said to be good, but it can't be said to be bad either. Both of them stood out in the war between Wei Guo and Liu Zhang, were appreciated by Guo Peng, and promoted to their current positions. Naturally, the relationship is not that bad, although The two are of different origins.

Not too bad though.

Fazheng felt that Deng Zhi pursued greatness, justice and rules too much, and was not able to use tricks, so he was dissatisfied with him.

Deng Zhi felt that Fazheng was sometimes dissatisfied with Fazheng when he did things without talking about the bottom line and only looking at benefits.

Having said that, the two have never had any disputes over this. As colleagues, they work together harmoniously without any discord.

But this time, Deng Zhi seemed to have a premonition, looking at Fazheng who was full of yearning, and couldn't help asking.

"Xiaozhi, do you really want to leave Sichuan and go to Luoyang?"

Fazheng turned his head and glanced at Deng Zhi.

"You do not want?"

"Of course I want to, but I didn't expect you to take the lead, even before the envoy. This doesn't seem very good, and the people in the Governor's Mansion have some complaints about it."

Deng Zhi said so.

Fazheng was very disdainful of Deng Zhi's opinion.

"Bo Miao, how about our backgrounds?"

"It's nothing, it's not a famous family, even if the ancestors have great abilities... We are also unworthy descendants."

"That's it."

Fazheng shook his head: "Since our family background is not good, we don't have the family backgrounds of the Yuan family, the Xun family, the Kong family and the Jia family family, so we can't expect to be appreciated by our family background. If we want to be appreciated, we must seize the opportunity to show off their talents.”

"That's why you got on the watch first?"

Deng Zhi was a little puzzled: "Aren't you afraid of offending Lord Manshi?"

"I am an official of the Staff Office, and I belong to the Staff Office. What does it have to do with Man Shijun?"

Fazheng, in turn, expressed doubts towards Deng Zhi: "Bo Miao, you and I are officials of the central government, but you and I are not officials of Yizhou. If you and I don't take the lead in expressing our views, if there is a problem with the central government, you I am thousands of miles away, so what?

And Manshijun is Manshijun, you and me are you and me, will Manshijun help you and me in your official career?Are you his protégé or his former official?What do you need to rely on him for?You don't understand anything and you want to follow him? "

Chapter 1206 One Thousand 110 Liu Meng Huo Has Really Started His Hands

What Fazheng said made Deng Zhi stunned on the spot.

It seems that Deng Zhi just thought of this.

Fazheng shook his head again and again.

"Opportunities don't come all the time, Bo Miao, although you and I are scholars, but even scholars, if there is no opportunity, you and I will be suppressed at the bottom all our lives and cannot stand up.

How does the investigation help you and me?If there is no His Majesty, how will it help the descendants of you and me?Now the opportunity is in front of you, but you are afraid to seize it, what are you thinking? "

Fazheng gave Deng Zhi a quick meal, and felt that he had done his best as a colleague.

Although Deng Zhi didn't have much friendship with him, Fazheng felt that he had never looked down on him, so he didn't hold grudges against him, so he was willing to mention a little bit at this time.

But if Deng Zhi can't think clearly, it can only be said that he has no fate with high-ranking officials.

In such an era of great change no less than that of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, your ability, Deng Bomiao, is not bad, but you can't get a ride, you...
