Chapter 245: Ingenious idea

Views:

The city of Ye that had just been captured was like a piece of scorched earth. Yi Yan walked on the wide street, frowning tightly. He was still a step late.

The official residence in the city was almost looted. Wife and estranged, and the number of people who have lost their families is even more numerous. Including the defenders who could not resist, the number of casualties should be in the thousands. Fortunately, the rogue camp was broken, and the women and treasures that were looted were still piled up outside the palace and were never taken away.

The women, of course, have to be sent home, but the looted property cannot be returned so easily. When the officials sent by the lord arrive, they will make a unified arrangement, either to appease the people or to join the army. His mission is to clean up the chaos and protect this heroic city.

"General, the corpses of King Dongyan and his son were found in the main camp. What should we do?"

"Condense first and wait for the master's order." Yi Yan replied coldly.

Li Fengbu not only killed Sima Teng, but also cut off his wife and children. As a result, a family of four, young and old, was slaughtered. Only one concubine escaped. However, Yi Yan had no interest in such a tragedy. Sima Teng also sold him as a slave back then. If it wasn't for the lord's rescue, he would have died on the way to Yanzhou. Moreover, this person is narrow, and if he is rescued, I am afraid that he will not accept his affection, but will instead give birth to jealousy. If he doesn't die, Yi Yan will have to think of a way.

Now it saves the trouble, but the body needs to be collected, and these coffins may have to be transported back to Luoyang. After all, Sima Teng was the younger brother of the King of the East China Sea, and he had to be buried to deal with the funeral. When it comes to etiquette, don't take it lightly.

"How's the surrender?" Yi Yan asked again.

"More than a thousand drops, most of which are Zhang Hong's former troops." The soldiers said immediately.

Among the rogues this time, there are many rebels. Zhang Hong was the former division of King Sima Lun of Zhao, who was the King of Hejian. Later, when the King of Hejian died, he fled in all directions. A lot of them were mixed into the team like Ji Sang who wore the banner of the pseudo-emperor Sima Ying. Li Feng, who caused the death of Sima Teng's family, also belonged to Zhang Hong's former division. Now that the Bingzhou soldiers and horses rushed to the camp, they did not have much will to escape. Anyway, it is the imperial army and horses, and it is not bad to wait for the surrender.

Of course, Yi Yan wouldn't just accept a group of rebels who had been rogues and had disorganized military discipline: "I ordered people to reorganize them and put them all into the civilian camp, repair the city, and reclaim the official land."

This is how they treat the soldiers. It's a pity that there are too many horse thieves among the rogues this time, and even when Ji Sang was killed, a few slipped away. Fortunately, he won the head of the thief chief, and his efforts to defend the city gate were not in vain.

These things just flashed through my mind. Yi Yan continued to walk forward, along the stairs, to the city wall of Ye City. After all, it was the old capital of Wei Dynasty. This city is indeed a bit majestic, even easier to defend than Jinyang.

However, from Sima Ying to Sima Teng, these defenders of the city were unstoppable, and they hurriedly fled. Wasting this tall city wall in vain. If he were given two thousand soldiers, he would definitely be able to defend this place like a golden pot.

However, defending the city is second, and I don't know who the imperial court will hand this city into this time.

Involuntarily looked in the direction of Bingzhou. In the next instant, Yi Yan's expression turned cold. The pain of that day has not dissipated, and there is more despair. It was like a dead end game, trapping him in the game. To die and then to live? Does he really have that much money

When several coffins, together with Sima Teng's concubine, returned to Luoyang, the little emperor's head ached.

Who would have guessed that Sima Teng would not be able to keep it for a few days? The soldiers and horses of Bingzhou were only three or five days late, and the corpse capital here was cold. But are the Bingzhou soldiers really late? On the contrary, it took only about ten days from Yuxu Chuan to Binglin Yecheng. Jinyang is not too close to Yecheng, so he must have received the order and set off immediately. In love and courtesy, Liang Zixi has achieved the ultimate. It's really hard to pick out faults for such a loyal minister who remembers the old master.

But what about Sima Teng? After all, he is the younger brother of the King of the East Sea, so he died in vain

It took a while for the little emperor to appease Sima Teng's concubine. The imperial court wanted to pursue the posthumous title, and the successor would also fall on him. It's just that I don't know if I was scared out of my guts, but this son of a bitch didn't want to go back to Yecheng.

This matter, can only wait for Sima Yue to come forward to make a decision.

But in this case, what will Yecheng do? The little emperor looked at Wang Yan and hesitated: "Situ, the leader of the bandits and bandits has been eliminated. Now that Yecheng relies entirely on Bingzhou's troops, should we make arrangements earlier?"

As soon as the little emperor opened his mouth, Wang Yan understood what he wanted to say. Yecheng needed to send more troops, but Bingzhou soldiers were already stationed in it. This means, can Liang Zixi be the governor of Hebei at the same time

During the Jin Dynasty, it was common for the governors to count several states. But Liang Zixi can't! He was the one the little emperor favored, and the sooner Sima was extremely jealous. Now, Sima Teng died tragically and was almost extinct. Let Liang Zixi also lead Wei County is simply a daydream! And this also involves Wang Jun of Youzhou. Many people in the court clearly understand Wang Jun's intention to meddle in Jizhou. It's just that there is no suitable opportunity, and it has been delayed. Now Liang Zixi is behind his back, ceding the Dai County to the Tuoba Department, and then coming to seize the Wei County, the gateway to Jizhou, which will definitely annoy Wang Jun.

But these orders are all issued by the imperial court. With such a commotion, Sima Yue, who was far away in Jingzhou, was afraid that he would be furious.

To be honest, Wang Yan really didn't want to deal with such troublesome matters. However, after thinking for a moment, he raised his eyebrows: "It's very important at this time, it's best to go to Jingzhou and ask the Taifu's opinion."

The little emperor made some secret moves when Sima Yue was away. Now that Wang Yan has made a point, he doesn't dare to make any further progress, so he can only promise: "It will be arranged by Situ."

Seeing the appearance of the little emperor, Wang Yan couldn't help but smile. This child is very thoughtful and loves trouble. If it weren't for Sima Yue's eagerness to exterminate the false emperor and establish his own orthodox status. I am afraid that I have already made a move on the little emperor. But this time, Sima Yue will definitely be satisfied with the method he came up with!

"Kill!" shouted hoarsely, undulating under the city. The crowd is like a turbulent wave that cannot retreat, scouring the towering city wall.

The pseudo-emperor Sima Ying was defeated and fled back to Fengguo. However, the important town of Gangneung has not been abandoned. Now Sima Yue's top priority is to destroy Jiangling first, and then take the life of Sima Ying, his old rival, as if searching for something.

But Jiangling is really hard to fight! The seven-province thoroughfare, the important military area, is still the pattern of the old and the new city being the horns of each other. Attacking in winter is like a ghost on a mountain of knives, and it is extremely difficult. But even so, Sima Yue did not relax. His general, Gou Xi, is extremely good at fighting. Apart from being harsh and like Bai Qi, there is nothing wrong with him. However, this temperament is very effective on the Overseer, and even the weak civilians mustered up their courage and rushed forward one after another.

This is already the tenth day, and even a city like Jiangling can't hold it for long.

However, standing in the tent, Sima Yue was not happy with this progress. On the contrary, looking at the letter sent by Luoyang, he only felt that all the insides were burned, and he was furious! Sima Teng actually died in Yecheng? Even the three direct sons died cleanly... This! How can this be accepted!

It was another incident that the little emperor and Liang Zixi joined forces to do! Looking at the battle report, Sima Yue only felt furious, wishing to lead the troops immediately and go back and teach that Shuzi! But when the war is going on, how can you retreat half a step. Luoyang, I'm afraid it will take two months to return. How could he just sit back and watch these people do whatever they want

He was so angry that Sima Yue could not wait to issue an decree immediately to let Wang Jun also lead Jizhou, preferably to eat Liang Zixi's territory. However, when he saw Wang Yan's private letter, his reason returned slightly. He frowned, looked at it again, and finally smiled.

"This is a great plan!"

On the piece of paper in front of him, only a few sentences were written. But most importantly, it is clear. Guarding Yecheng and attacking, when General Weiyuan was promoted to General Anbei, he sealed off the Neihou of Guan and led the military affairs of Hebei.

From the miscellaneous number of generals, he jumped to the title of Hou Jinpin, and also led a military service. What kind of honor is this? And this kind of reward is second, Sima Yue knows very well that that Jie general is the root of Bingzhou's army and horses so powerful! What about the confidant lover? How many people can resist Lilu! What's more, he is a man from a poor family.

If he takes the lead, Bingzhou will lack a capable general, and if he sends a prefect to take over Yecheng, will he still be unable to restrain a Jie slave? And if Liang Zixi refused, in all likelihood, Yiyan would withdraw from Yecheng and return to Jinyang. In this way, wouldn't Yecheng's troubles be solved? There is also a deep thorn buried between the master and servant. Is Yi Yan really unmoved by such a high rise

Even if he knew there was a ghost, Liang Zixi could only recognize it with his nose. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, the strength of Bingzhou's troops and horses will be greatly reduced. This is the beauty of the alienation strategy!

Wang Yifu is really clever, and after the false emperor is eliminated, let his younger brother Wang Cheng be the prefect of Jingzhou. Having finally resolved a major matter in his heart, Sima Yue put down the letter and chuckled lightly. Before the solar eclipse, he was still worried. Now that it's solved, isn't it happy

It's a pity that we will not be able to catch up with the Zhengdan Dynasty. Sima Yue sneered and let the little emperor spend a few more days in Luoyang. Let's see what else he can play with!
