Royal Road

Chapter 255: Entrust

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

"Cough cough cough...Thanks to General Yi's assistance, we were able to get out of trouble..." The man leaning on the couch pressed his throat and coughed and said effortlessly.

His appearance is not bad, and there is some extraordinary aura between his eyebrows, but he is now covered by the disease. He insisted on keeping his faith that day until the city broke, but the state soldiers desperately escorted him out. It's a pity that Ding Shaoli was hit by a rebellion on the road, and when he was overwhelmed with fright, he fell ill when he arrived in Qinghe. Just connect to see Yi Yan, and only in the room.

Facing the ill-faced Ding Shishi, Yi Yan rarely had a cold face and persuaded: "The Shishi is the first to recover from the illness. This time the rebellion has been defeated by the final general, and Qinghe is on the safe side."

However, this comfort never satisfied Ding Shao. He struggled to prop up his figure: "The rebellion army has gone away a lot, and will never let it go. I am afraid that Jizhou and the city will suffer military disasters. It is a sigh that I am better than Wang Pengzu and Gou Dao. Can't resist..."

What he said was naturally Wang Jun and Gou Xi. These two men have made great achievements in battle, and they are first-class generals in the DPRK and China. In his early years, Ding Shao also started from military exploits, and governing states and counties was even more politically balanced, and he was safe in all circumstances. Unexpectedly, a robber who entered the country suddenly could bring Jizhou into chaos. Now that he is seriously ill in bed, Ding Shao's heart is even more frustrated.

"This time the bandit leader is extraordinary. I am afraid it will be difficult for the state and county soldiers and horses to cope. If it were not for the help of the governor, the general would not be able to defeat it."

What Yi Yan said was not an excuse. When he left Zhao Jun, he had planned to attack the enemy camp, taking advantage of the fact that he had just breached the Xindu, neglected to guard, and wiped it out in one fell swoop. But following the scout's newsletter, he found that the leader of this group of rogues was more difficult to deal with than he thought. Even when the city was looted and plundered, the rogue camp did not have too many flaws. The various ministries performed their duties, and the defense was extremely tight. After all his own forces were too small, Yi Yan changed his strategy and contacted Ding Cishi who was in Qinghe to jointly complete this strategy of dividing the forces and breaking the enemy.

No matter how good the fight is, there is only one person on the other side. As long as he is separated from the army under his command, there is an opportunity to take advantage of it. And these men under him are gangsters who have been transformed into bandits. If it is a downwind battle, everyone can take the lead. Once the establishment is destroyed and the command is lost, it will be defeated in all likelihood.

The Yellow Turban Army at the end of the Han Dynasty did the same. Tens of thousands of the Yellow Turban army can be beaten by thousands of Qingqi and flee in the wild. Who are the heroes who are fighting for hegemony? It is precisely because of this that Yi Yan dared to let go, breaking the strong with the weak twice, hitting a time difference. Of course, this confidence is also inseparable from the five-hundred horse armor the lord left him.

All the horse armors seized from Liu Cong were taken to Yecheng by him. Only this is the same, it is absolutely impossible for others to give.

Looking at the Jie generals in front of them, Ding Shao sighed: "I heard that most of the gangsters who fled were horse soldiers. I will issue orders to the counties and let them hold on to the city. It is difficult to catch up with this group of thieves."

The cavalry relies on speed to attack the city, and there are chasing soldiers behind, I am afraid they will not fight those cities that cannot be defended. If all counties can stand up and reduce the chances of breaking the city, it is not difficult. But again, the speed of the bandits was too fast, and Yiyan had only two thousand cavalry at hand, so he would not be able to catch up. The harm caused by such a running insurgent is still not small.

"The Governor of the King's Capital may not ignore it. As long as the robbers invade Youzhou, they will definitely attract Xianbei cavalry." Yi Yan also had a plan to deal with this point.

Ding Shao was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "I heard that General Yi comforted several counties in Zhao County?"

The topic suddenly turned to this, and it was said that it was his intention to seize power. Yi Yan raised his eyebrows without covering up: "Exactly. If the thieves in the city do not disappear, the people will be in trouble."

After a few coughs, Ding Shao said with difficulty: "Also ask General Yi to lead my troops to help me stabilize Jizhou."

What does this mean is to acquiesce in his actions? Yi Yan couldn't understand the other party's thoughts, but he didn't bother to guess, and simply nodded: "Ding Cishi only cares about recovering from illness, Jizhou is the barrier of Sizhou, I will do my best."

Seeing this Jie Ren's solemn expression, Ding Shao sighed in his heart. He didn't even know Wang Jun's attempt to Jizhou? Now there is another Yi Yan, which is probably related to Liang Zixi, the provincial governor behind him. Just in comparison, Ding Shao is still more able to accept Yi Yan's "help".

Although Wang Jun had strong soldiers and horses, the Xianbei cavalry were greedy and greedy. They captured Yecheng and Chang'an, burned, killed, and looted incalculable, and wherever they went, the people were unhappy. But the soldiers that Yi Yan brought were not like this. In Anding counties, sheltering refugees is a real rescue, not a raid. This alone distinguishes the superior and inferior.

Ding Shao considers himself very high and talented, and has always regarded Dong Zheng as his ambition. The defeat in this battle really smashed his self-confidence. He was hardly healed from serious injuries, and he felt that there was not much time in his body. If you really want to choose, Ding Shao must of course choose someone who can comfort the people and live up to his lifelong beliefs. This person will never be Wang Jun!

Closed his eyes wearily, Ding Shao slowly nodded: "There is General Lao Yi."

Walking out of the bedroom full of medicinal smell, Yi Yan also exhaled the depression in his chest. This Ding Shishi reminded him of the person far away in Bingzhou. Perhaps not all officials in the prefectures and counties of the world are like Wang Ping and Pei Dun. They only serve their own interests and cause disaster for the people. It's just that they lack the master's mind and wrists.

The city of Qinghe has not been breached, and there is still a rare scene of stability in the city. Although some people on the road are in shock, there is no sorrow and fear of displacement. Yi Yan had already seen a lot of terrible sights along the way. The women on the side of the road were killed, the children in the house were starved to death, and even the beasts that ate all edible things to survive...Why should those innocent and good suffer such disasters?

There should be someone to stop this troubled world.

The desire to kill the bandit leader of the same clan has not diminished, but it is no longer what Yi Yan is most concerned about. How to annihilate that rebellious army and how to save more people is what he should do. And these are not all for the lord.

With his gaze swept across the busy street, Yi Yan stepped again and walked out of the city.

Even if there is Xingdao and fast delivery, it still takes a lot of time for the news to come from Jizhou. Liang Feng has been restless these few days! Reason tells him that Yi Yan will not act recklessly, and that he must have his plan to send troops. But the anxiety in the heart will not be reduced by this.

If the Shangdang sent troops, the connection between him and Yi Yan would be impossible to hide from the group of people in Luoyang. But at this moment, how can you care so much!

After waiting for seven or eight days, MeSince finally arrived at the desk. When he saw the content of the letter, Liang Feng felt as if he were stomped and showed a dumbfounded expression.

Zhang Bin sighed: "General Yi is really a hundred battles, and he can win even this way!"

Yes, in the face of tens of thousands of troops, Yi Yan defeated the partial division and the big camp twice with less victory, forcing the bandit leader to flee far. There were tens of thousands of soldiers dropped after the war alone! And the letter he sent from Bingzhou only said one important thing, that is, sending money. The treasures found in the camp were loaded on a carriage and transported along Fukouxing to Jinyang. Just gold and silver, there are no more than ten cars!

The group of gangsters simply emptied the treasury and family in Jizhou, and now they are all cheap.

"Bo Yuan asked for food in the letter. It seems that Jizhou's situation is not good." The initial surprise was suppressed, and Liang Feng finally cleared up his mood and continued to look down.

In addition to sending the money, Yi Yan also invited grain and grass. After breaking through the camp, there are not a few grains, and it seems that they still can't support the people who have lost their homes. After the imperial court allocates the grain, I don't know when it will be pushed to catch up with Xia Chong, Jizhou will be completely deserted.

"Secretly allocate some grain in the past." For this, Liang Feng would not hesitate. It happened that Zhao Jun was also under Yi Yan's control. If it was shipped from Leping Country, even the court might not be able to detect it.

"I heard that Ding Cishi also relied heavily on General Zhongyi. In this way, it should not be difficult to occupy the southeast of Jizhou." Zhang Bin smiled and said calmly.

According to common sense, Ding Shishi's goodwill should be quite worrying. After all, Yi Yan is alone now. If there is an extra cadre who trusts him, anyone will have to drum up, for fear that he will vote for others. But the treasure of this car completely dispels doubts. Zhang Bin has now determined that there is absolutely no doubt between the lord and General Yi. Knowing each other between emperors and ministers is the most stable cornerstone of the great cause. With this major premise, everything else is just a trivial matter.

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 rebellion 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 is unexpectedly cunning, if Wang Jun can't keep him, I'm afraid it will be more troublesome.

"Unexpectedly, the leader of the rebellion army is also a Jieren. I wonder if Wang Jun can kill him?" Liang Feng sighed lightly. He is really fortunate now. If he hadn't picked Yi Yan himself, would he have been among the bandits, burned, killed, looted, and used his outstanding military talent on the opposite side?

Zhang Bin said: "Wang Pengzu's Xianbei soldiers and horses, is it empty? And with General Yi on his side, Jizhou will be settled after all."

At that time, it was the time when the two states were at war. How could Liang Feng know the situation that Binzhou will face?

"The locust eradication operations in all counties should be carried out early. There is also the Buddha's birthday next month, and you can also take the opportunity to hold a puja to stabilize the people's hearts." Withdrawing his thoughts, Liang Feng put his eyes in front of him.

Zhang Bin doesn’t believe in Buddhism, but he knows the role of Buddhism in calming the people, especially in soothing the Huren, so he will naturally not object: "Bin will do it. But there is one thing, the lord must not neglect. There are many and many magi in Jizhou and Yanzhou. Not conscripted by the imperial court. If you can invite the virtuous, you will have a great career!"

Liang Feng's heart jumped. By the way, isn't there still a famous player in this era? Where is he now? For whom? In this era, the decay of aristocratic families is true, but there are still many people who have left a name in history. Does he have the courage and talent to control these capable generals?

Looking at Zhang Bin with shining eyes in front of him, Liang Feng only felt a sense of pride in his chest, and said with a smile on his knees: "Meng Sun reminded me that. When sending people to visit, look for talents in the wild!"

Zhang Bin actually has some worries, for fear that the channel of system discipline will allow the master to retreat. Now that he has the approval, he can't help but beaming: "Bindang will do his best to accept the Lord!"
