Royal road

Guarded by cavalry, the return journey of the army was much faster than when it went there. When they saw the familiar tall city wall of Jinyang, many people felt that things were right and people were wrong.This battle was fought inexplicably and almost collapsed, but the result was unexpected.Not only took back the three cities of Jingling, but also let Liu Hu, who was entrenched in Xinxing County, die under the city.

But all of this is not their fault.If the army could be led by Governor Liang, would they be able to get the same glory instead of fleeing back to Jinyang so disheveled and with their tails between their legs?

In front of the wide-open city gate, there was a guard of honor for the governor.Without the governor, the main general Linghu Sheng naturally stepped forward immediately.Unexpectedly, as they got closer, they realized that this was not a simple greeting. Governor Liang was dressed in plain clothes, with a solemn expression on his face, which was already pale, showing a bit of dignity.

"The last general failed to keep the governor, so please punish him!" Linghu Sheng is also an official figure, how could he not know the meaning of this battle.Immediately dismounted, knelt down and pleaded guilty.

Anyway, this battle also killed the coach, and he was also Sima Yue's brother-in-law.If there is a decree from the imperial court, maybe how to send these generals down.The three armies are dead when they die, but the general is of great importance and cannot be treated lightly.And the governor in front of him obviously thought carefully.

Liang Feng let out a long sigh, and held the veteran's arms: "Pei Dudu abandoned the flag and was defeated. Thanks to General Fenwei for keeping the more than [-] soldiers and horses, Liu Hu and others have fear. The battle of Lishi, Fenwei Not only did the general have no faults, but he made meritorious deeds."

This is the conclusion of the governor's office.If it was placed in the early years, it would not be surprising that the generals of the entire army would be deposed without the commander in chief, and even the soldiers would be exiled.But now how can anyone dare to do this?Bingzhou is already in chaos, and the Huns are threatening, as long as the governor insists that this battle is not the fault of other generals, who will dare to hold him accountable?

As for the cause of Pei Dun's death, Shi Jun did not intend to hide it.In this way, the chaos in Bingzhou was ultimately caused by Pei Dun alone, and he paid the price for it.What can Sima Yue do if he is defeated and killed by his own private soldiers?In the final analysis, the imperial court cannot appoint talents.

This method seems straightforward, but it is actually well-intentioned.And why not make the king work hard to bear the anger of the court against the generals of Bingzhou.If it was Pei Dun who was in charge of the soldiers, even if Linghu Sheng was able to bring the soldiers back, the blame would most likely fall on them, the leaders of the soldiers.Comparing the two, it makes people feel how rare it is for a chief official who is the best in both ability and character.

Taking advantage of the situation, Linghu Sheng stood up, and said in a deep voice: "If there is no envoy to kill Liu Hu and break the siege of Jinyang. At this moment, Bingzhou may have fallen into the hands of the Hulu. The general will feel ashamed and cannot share his worries for the envoy! "

This is really effective, Liang Feng patted his arm lightly: "Why did General Linghu say that? Jinyang has just retreated from the enemy, and the general is still waiting to serve. This city and state also need to be troubled by the general." It is."

With just a few words, the affiliation was settled.All the generals in Bingzhou should also be gathered into the arms of the governor's mansion.However, regarding this result, no one in Jinyang City would have any objections.

Because of Pei Dun's death, no grand celebration ceremony was held for this victory.After calming down the army, Liang Feng ordered the dead soldiers to be buried generously, and the heroes who defended the city to be rewarded. At the same time, he ordered Huai'en Temple to hold a grand ceremony to ward off evil spirits and further calm people's hearts.

There are so many things, it is almost impossible to stop.Even if Duan Qin and Ge Hong wanted him to rest, Liang Feng couldn't rest.There seemed to be an unbearable mass in his chest, and he couldn't breathe if he didn't do anything.

"General Chuan Yi." Liang Feng rubbed his forehead, and unfolded the map at hand.

Liu Hu is dead, he should send troops to Xinxing County, and try to take that county back into the territory.In addition, it is time for Leping Kingdom to change its long history. Wen Qiao should move his position and be promoted to Prime Minister.In this way, he took back four of the six prefectures in Bingzhou.Yanmen County is once again the territory of the ally Tuoba Xianbei, leaving only the Xihe Kingdom occupied by the Huns.

These days, he is busy, and Yiyan is not idle either.Not only do we need to rectify the trilogy of the Liang Mansion, which has lost troops due to fierce battles, but we must also establish a good relationship with the Bingzhou generals headed by Linghu Sheng.This is also a critical moment for the private soldiers of the Liang family, and even the Shangdang Department to formally contact the generals of Jinyang, and there is no room for negligence.

But if they sent troops to Xinxing County, how could Yiyan be missing.Liang Feng naturally wanted to call him over to discuss it carefully.

Unexpectedly, the waiting time was much longer than expected.Looking at the tangled lines on the picture, Liang Feng's head gradually tilted and he rested on his elbow.Tiredness is like an invisible big hand, tightly grasping his body and mind, dragging him to the abyss of sleep.

This drowsiness is not safe.

Liang Feng found himself sitting in a study.The walls are empty, dark and cold. Behind the low table sits an old man who exudes decay and decay.That is Cui Daru.Liang Feng was a little taken aback, when did Cui Daru come to Jinyang?

At this time, the old man said: "Internal turmoil is not enough, and external troubles are inevitable. Junping internal turmoil, punishing Pei Dun, and slaughtering Liu Hu, with only [-] lives, in exchange for Bingzhou Antai, isn't it worthwhile?"

Liang Feng's throat seemed to be blocked.Just four thousand?Four thousand corpses can build up a tomb like a city wall, and can fill up a huge and deep canyon.Just four thousand?

"Otherwise? What else?" Another voice sounded in my ear.Liang Feng trembled and turned his head suddenly.It was another old man, someone who should not have appeared in front of him long ago.

"If it weren't for Wang Ming's left-leaning dogmatic military mistakes, how could the Central Red Army have suffered a disastrous defeat in five anti-encirclement campaigns, from 10 to [-]. Without the new trio to seize power, how could there be final victory?!" The old man snorted He said, "Military and political affairs are not as simple as you think. Once the general is successful, thinking about everything else is a burden except winning! Xiaofeng, you are too soft-hearted, how can you lead the army in the future?"

"That's different..." Liang Feng murmured, trying to explain what it was.However, under his feet, something grabbed his ankle.

Liang Feng lowered his head, the floor under his feet turned into a pool of blood at some point.The thick plasma rolled with a disgusting smell, and countless corpses with mutilated limbs twisted together.Those corpses did not fall into eternal sleep.Instead, they were all screaming and struggling.Countless hands were raised high, hanging with rotten meat and bones, as if grasping at a life-saving straw, they grabbed Liang Feng's legs and tore them, trying to drag him into the rotten abyss.

"Save us... who will save us..."

With a buzzing sound, a long arrow pierced through the young man standing in front of him.The still warm blood splashed all over his face.Liang Feng opened his mouth mutteringly: "I can't save you..."

"Kill! Kill me!"

The roar echoed in his ears.Throats were cut, intestines pierced, limbs were broken, and the burning fireball exuded a strong scorching smell.He stood in the middle of the Asura field, looking at the crowd who were constantly going to die because of his orders.Couldn't even lift a finger.

He can't save so many people.He can sacrifice for his comrades, and he can die to protect the citizens.But can he save more people?Save the world...

"Lord!"

With a tightening of his arm, Liang Feng suddenly woke up from his dream.In front of him was an anxious face, with concern and worry shining in his gray-blue eyes.The hand on the arm was so hard that it seemed that he would not let go for a moment.

Liang Feng opened his mouth and squeezed out a sentence: "I accidentally fell asleep..."

"You're sick!" Yiyan's voice was full of anxiety, "My lord, this time it was Pei Dun who caused the disaster, not you. Please don't blame yourself, my lord!"

Liang Feng was stunned.Did he just talk in his sleep?Did he show something wrong?Even Duan Qin and Sun Li, who are as sharp as Duan Qin and Sun Li, are now relieved and secretly glad that he is in charge of the military administration of Bingzhou.As for Linghu Sheng and Ge Hong, who participated in the battle in person, they admired him more and admired him wholeheartedly.Why did Yiyan say that?

However, the hand that grabbed his wrist was even stronger.As if he didn't know how to persuade, Yi Yan hurriedly said: "The lord has tried everything, just to save more people. No one can take human life as a big thing like the lord. If the lord blames himself for this, And how do we govern the land of this state? I will bear the retribution for the slaughter!"

Liang Feng didn't need others to help him bear that burden, his self-esteem and sense of responsibility couldn't be shirked.However, his hands still trembled slightly.It seemed that the person in front of him had snatched the heavy burden from his shoulders, picked it up from the beginning to the end, and made his whole body loose.The strength of the grasp on the wrist is so strong that it almost wants to rub him into the blood of his bones.

There is something fiery in his eyes, faintly rolling.However, Liang Feng suppressed it and did not let those things flow to the surface.Taking a deep breath, he sat up straight: "Don't worry about Boyuan, I know about this."

Yes, he has always understood.It's just that like the old man said, I don't have the heart of a soldier or a politician.However, the current situation has already pushed him down to this position. If he indulges again, how can he be worthy of those wasted sacrifices?

With a slight struggle, he pulled his arm back: "Liu Hu is dead, and Baibu Xianbei has also lost a lot of troops. Xinxing County, we have to reconsider..."

The thin wrist broke free from his hand, but Yiyan was not as depressed as before.He could see the look of the lord, the sadness and entanglement that made his heart ache had slowly dissipated, and the person in front of him had once again returned to his calm and calm appearance in the past.The hanging heart floated to the ground like a falling feather. He clenched his fist and held the rough feeling in his palm.

Concentrating, Yi Yan sat on the other side of the desk, quietly listening to the man's subsequent orders.
