Summon players, rebuild Dawei

The capture of Dewu County in Yongzhou seemed to be just the beginning. Before Jiang Shu called everyone to analyze the changes in the battle situation in Yongzhou, two more explosive news were sent to him through various channels.

First, the Di tribe broke through Qichao County, the Yuanyou army was defeated, and fled to Ningzhou with tens of thousands of remnants. Then the army of the Southwest King entered Hengchuan and surrounded Kong's mansion with troops under the banner of "the side of the Qing emperor". Kong Cheng He and his descendants were killed by the army of the Southwest King on the spot, the Queen Mother Kong was abolished, and the rest of the Kong clan and party members were either imprisoned as "rebellious officials and thieves", or escaped from Hengchuan with the help of old friends, and went to Shannan County, Yongzhou. home.

In the back hall of the official office, after Jiang Shu said these things one by one, everyone was silent. It was not that they had nothing to say, but the world was too chaotic, and they didn't know where to start.

Seeing this, Jiang Shu thought of the way Xie Yin asked him to sort out the troubles one by one in order of priority when he was in a state of confusion before, and led everyone to say: "Let's talk about the situation in the Southland first."

Hearing the word "Nandi", the rest of the people all looked at Xie Min who was sitting quietly drinking tea in the seat on the left.

Realizing that he was being watched by many pairs of eyes, Xie Min put down his cup and said lightly: "The changes in the situation in the Southland will not hinder us for the time being, just wait and see the changes."

Others have similar thoughts.

The fact that the King of Southwest entered Hengchuan seemed earth-shattering, but in fact, for the northern states and counties struggling to cope with the attack of the Hu tribe, there was actually no big difference between the King of Southwest and Kong Cheng who held the power.

So after analyzing the pros and cons of the situation in the south around the three kings and the rebel army, everyone unknowingly talked about Yongzhou along Lingzhou.

When mentioning Yongzhou, it is inevitable that the recent battle in Dewu County cannot be avoided. Zhang Zifang took the lead in asking: "I don't know something, and I want to ask my lord."

Jiang Shu looked at Zhang Zifang, who returned to Miryang after the army conquered Lianxun County. After all, he was the head of Miryang County. Although Xun Ling was reluctant, he had no reason to detain him.

Hearing this, Jiang Shu slightly raised his hand and said, "Please speak."

"Whether Xing Sang has rebelled or not?" Zhang Zifang asked the most puzzling question of everyone as soon as he opened his mouth.

After Yin Yunying passed the news of the inquiry from the Huns to Bu Jingyun, Bu Jingyun had to pass on the news to Jiang Shu through Zhang Zifang, so he knew more.

But because of this, he became more and more unpredictable about Xing Sang's actions. He said he was an enemy, but he and Yin Yunying reached a plan to kill the King of the Huns by poisoning him. He said he was a friend, but he helped the Huns attack Wei's city. The key is that he was really captured.

"His real target is the Xiongnu," Jiang Shu explained. "Helping the Xiongnu is to gain the trust of the Hun King. Killing the Hun King is for revenge. He may not care about other things."

"That's someone we can cooperate with temporarily." Zhang Zifang concluded.

"Since we helped the Huns attack Yongzhou, they are our enemies, how can we conspire with them?" Qin Shang made a voice of disapproval.

"Qin Jijiu." Zhang Zifang persuaded in a calm tone as usual, "Don't forget what we want to do in the future. First of all, the Yongzhou that the Huns attacked was Wei's Yongzhou, not our Yongzhou. Secondly, even if there is no Xing Sang, The Xiongnu will still attack Dewu County, this is related to the will of the Hun King, and has nothing to do with the people he sent, since there are people in the Xiongnu camp who share the same goal as us, why can't we cooperate with them?"

Qin Shang frowned slightly, and wanted to refute that the blood on Xing Sang's hands was indeed the blood of their Wei people, but as Zhang Zifang said, it was not the generals at the front who really controlled the Xiongnu army, but the Xiongnu king at the rear.

As long as Hu Yanyou survives, more people will die.

So Zhang Zifang's choice was right, considering the current situation, their cooperation with Xing Sang is indeed the most beneficial way.

Thinking about this clearly, Qin Shang was not obsessed with it, and sighed: "Master Zhang is right, but I am short-sighted."

Zhang Zifang shook his head: "Qin Jijiu is a true gentleman, he is upright and gentle, he abides by morality, I admire it very much."

"Master Zhang is the master of strategy, I am ashamed of myself."

After they finished flattering each other, Jiang Shufang brought up the matter and said: "Actually, the latest news I got is that Xing Sang has presented the poison pill to Hu Yanyou through Huyan Manman's hand."

Hearing this, everyone present showed expressions of astonishment.

Ruan Ying was even more delighted and said: "If this plan can be implemented smoothly, the crisis in the Northland may be resolved by itself."

"Exactly." Jiang Shu nodded.

"Even if the Xiongnu retreat, Yongzhou may not be safe, and now most of Xizhou's territory has fallen into the hands of the Di tribe!" Liu Shan sighed.

Qin Shang paused, and said: "General Yuan's defeat is really unexpected. He has [-] troops in his hands, but he can't resist the Di people's attack. Who else in the world can fight?"

"The two of you are too pessimistic. Although General Yuan was defeated, his strength still exists. He gathered his defeated troops and fled to Ningzhou, perhaps in order to improve his armor, hide his strength and bide his time. It is also possible to make a comeback when the time is right. "Ruan Ying said in relief.

Hearing this, Jiang Shu shook his head secretly in his heart.

Others didn't know the truth, but he knew it very well. Yuanyou fled to Ningzhou with an army of tens of thousands. There was indeed a reason why he couldn't resist the Di people's offensive, but it was more because of his own ambition and was no longer satisfied at this time. status.

Next, not only will the general conquering the west not go south to regain the lost land in a short time, but he will also go west to capture Liangzhou and other places, and dominate the vast area that is difficult for the imperial court to control. In the future, he will occupy one side again great power.

Looking at the few people who were regretting Yuan You's defeat, Jiang Shu couldn't help but sigh secretly, the current situation can be described as a real chaos in the world.

Wenchuan County, Caiping County.

Several generals of the rebel army were sitting in the meeting hall, Duan Yingxiong glanced at everyone, and asked: "The King of Southwest has entered Hengchuan, maybe he will be free to deal with us in a short time, should we continue to attack north? "

"Of course we will fight." Duan Tianya responded first.

After Duan Yingxiong captured Luoyu County, he committed suicide and came to join his brother. Compared with Duan Yingxiong, who always hesitates in doing things, his thoughts are much clearer and simpler. We will be cleaned up whenever we can, since the result is the same, of course the more territory we occupy, the better!"

The old patriarch of the Luoyue people was also in favor of the attack: "While King Pingjiang is still entangled with the Governor of Su, this is the right time for us to strengthen our military strength, otherwise either of the two will be enough for us to drink a pot."

Duan Yingxiong nodded silently.

In fact, he knew in his heart that this was the best strategy, including that Bu Jingyun also sent him a message before, planning out a specific route and battle plan for the siege of the city, and asked him to lead the army northward to fight the territory, and he did follow the plan Wenchuan County was defeated.

He should be happy about it, but every time he sees the dilapidated city and the corpses blurred by mosaics everywhere after the war, Duan Yingxiong can't help but regret it, thinking that he should stop provoking wars, how about farming in peace and stability?

Of course, in the end, in order to follow his soldiers, he had to keep fighting.

It was the same at this moment, under everyone's persuasion, Duan Yingxiong finally made up his mind and said: "Okay, then continue to attack and attack Moheng County!"

"Your Majesty, the Southwest King has already entered the capital, shall we return to Huaiyang Kingdom?"

"Retire, why do you want to retreat?" Pei Qian put down the embroidered fan in his hand, raised his head and pretended to be puzzled, "Didn't Wang Cheqi invite me to clear up the thieves? How can Gu retreat?"

Joining the army has some doubts: "But the disaster of the relatives has been eliminated, what name should we continue to attack?"

"Don't forget, there are still some remnants of the Kong family who have fled to Yongzhou," Pei Gan said expressionlessly, "If the hidden dangers are not eliminated, my heart is not at ease!"

Joining the army immediately realized it, and echoed, "What the king said is true."

Hengchuan, Xie's mansion.

Beside the pool, in the gazebo, the breeze gently blew the sleeves of the pale white clothes of the father and son.

Xie Jiao dropped a chess piece, raised his head and wanted to speak, but every time he saw his father's peaceful and stable expression, he suppressed all kinds of worries and questions in his heart.

Xie Xian said in a slow and indifferent tone: "Don't be anxious, the one who should come can't resist it, just wait and see what happens."

"Listen to Father's teaching." Xie Jiao responded.

"Have you heard from Ah Yin recently?"

"No," Xie Jiao replied first, and then after a little calculation in his mind, he realized something was wrong, "Father, brother has not received a letter for a month, but..."

Xie Xian gave a "hmm" and said, "It means he has made a decision."

"Then can we still contact him?"

"Why not?" Xie Xian said, with a sly smile on his lips, "Not only do we need to keep in touch with him frequently, but when the situation in the court is stable, as a father, I also need to find a good position for him in the court. Just do it."

Xie Jiao was slightly stunned when he heard the words, and after thinking for a while, he quickly understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "Father is right, brother is so content with the status quo, and for his relatives, he should plan for a better life for him in the future. "
