"The general was assassinated?" When he returned to Shangai, he did not wait for the news of the reinforcements, but instead waited for such bad news. Not to mention Wang Chang, even Duan Ji and Lujuan were shocked.
However, the letter was clearly put there for nothing, and Youzhou, Changshan County and Duan Wuchen sent messengers three times respectively, with similar content. Wang Jun died, the army bombed the camp, and Changshan County was attacked. To the east of the Taihang Mountains, the chaos has long been out of control, and their group of soldiers and horses who have penetrated into Bingzhou has become a completely lonely army.
"Let's quit Bingzhou as soon as possible and return to Youzhou." Duan Ji Lujuan made a decisive decision.
The coach is dead and the food supply is cut off, and dragging it on will only mess up the morale of the army. Duan Xianbei was only ordered to help in the battle, and now all those who obeyed are dead, so why waste their troops here
Wang Chang's face turned ashen when he heard this, and he said sharply: "Why, the prince thought that the death of the general would lead to chaos in Youzhou? You are still alive, and tens of thousands of strong soldiers in Youzhou have not been damaged. Even if the general dies, you can still control the situation. !"
Just relying on a yellow-mouthed child to control the situation? Duan Ji Lujuan sneered in his heart. He is often in and out of the general's mansion, and he knows Wang Jun's family well. Don't say anything else, just look at that Wang Ying, he is not a simple character. Jin people pay attention to direct descendants, but Xianbei people see power. Youzhou still doesn't know what will happen. If you want to attack Bianzhou, you must at least solve your family affairs.
However, Duan Ji Lujuan would not put his slander on the bright side and say: "The supervisor and guardian are thinking wrong. No matter what the situation in Youzhou is, it is always right to withdraw troops. Now our army has lost its way of retreat, and the rear army was defeated by Bingzhou soldiers and horses. If you want to go back to Youzhou, you have to take a detour. One day later, you will lose a ration of food, so you can’t afford to delay!”
Wang Chang could not argue. Bingzhou has strong walls and clear fields, and it is definitely a pipe dream to feed the enemy. If the food and forage problem cannot be solved, the military will be disintegrated, and the war will not be fought. But just withdrawing like this is not what he wants to see. Especially in the chaos in the rear, if we withdraw now, wouldn't it give Liang Zixi the opportunity to send troops to attack Changshan County. Even the camp that has lost its head coach and does not know when it will be able to gather is in danger. Even if he couldn't conquer Bingzhou, he couldn't give him such a chance!
"This news may not reach Jinyang immediately. There were several noble families who were familiar with the Taiyuan Wang clan before and planned to serve as generals. You can take advantage of the situation to let them donate food to the city and earn time. In this way, our department will If you can withdraw calmly, you will not lose your sense of proportion. And will the imperial court watch Liang Zixi act so recklessly and murder the important ministers of the same dynasty? Maybe it will issue a decree to reprimand and seek justice for the general!"
Wang Chang's words left Duan Ji and Lu Juan speechless. Will the court really convict Liang Zixi? I'm afraid it's difficult. Are there still few fiefdom officials who have fought back and forth because of personal grudges over the years? At the beginning, Huangfuzhong, the prefect of Qinzhou, was at odds with Li Han, a confidant of the King of Hejian, and led his troops to attack Yongzhou. As a result, the King of Hejian sent soldiers from the four counties of Qinzhou and Liangzhou to fight back. The battle lasted for two years, and the people in power in the court were changed over and over again, and no one was found guilty. These days, it is only natural to take beggar-thy-neighbor, otherwise how could Wang Jun dare to send troops to attack Bingzhou without authorization
However, although there is some resentment, Duan Ji and Lujuan have to admit that if they can retreat calmly, it is more in line with their own interests. The loss of the rear army has become a fact, and these Xianbei cavalry, he is really not allowed to lose.
But thinking about it this way, before the little nobles contacted by Wang Chang came forward, the enemy army was in front of him. And it was not the elusive partial division before, and the army of Bingzhou came out together, with a total of more than 40,000. Even worse, before the battle, thousands of soldiers shouted in unison: "Wang Jun is dead, and the food supply is cut off. Don't you wait and surrender!"
The voice was obviously specially trained, not only in Mandarin, but also in Xianbei Hu Yin. The news of the collapse of the camp has always been a secret in the military. How could you ever want to be so drunk? Seeing that there was a commotion in his own formation, people's hearts were unstable, Duan Ji Lujuan's complexion changed greatly: "Don't listen to thieves disturbing the military's heart! Kill me!"
I can't wait any longer, I must escape from Bingzhou as soon as possible to keep my troops!
However, how could the enemy formation with bright flags and agitation like rainbows be easily bypassed
The sound of killing is soaring, and the drums of war are endless. The two armies once again covered and killed in one place.
※
Liang Feng went to Shangdang, but no one expected it. Bingzhou was extremely worried, thinking that the deterioration of the situation also made some people feel that they had an opportunity to take advantage.
As a result, on the second day after leaving Jinyang, several nobles who were familiar with the Taiyuan Wang clan sent people to Leping to get in touch with Youzhou soldiers and horses. However, none of these people could reach their destination.
In the days that followed, the situation changed. The three little clansmen were found to have evidence of collaborating with the enemy, and they directly asked to kill them. Just when someone was amazed that Liang Zixi was so daring and not afraid to annoy the nobles of Bingzhou, the two armies of Youping started their first head-to-head battle.
The battle was dark and dark, and it took a whole day and night. Youzhou soldiers and horses lost nearly 10,000, abandoned Leping, and fled in the direction of Yanmen.
what does that mean? Youzhou Army's back road was cut off! And 40,000 to 60,000, there are still many Xianbei cavalry, and Bingzhou soldiers and horses are still not defeated. This alone is enough to keep all those with ulterior motives in silence. This is not the end, soon, news from Youzhou came out. Wang Jun died, the camp collapsed, Changshan County changed hands, and the situation had completely reversed.
Now, who dares to make a noise? The situation in Jinyang has stabilized like never before.
In the prefect's mansion of Lucheng, Liang Feng flipped through the latest military newspaper: "The troops and horses of Fan Yang's camp have begun to retreat."
Changshan County played extremely easily. Taking advantage of the news of Wang Jun's death, Jingxing and Zhaojun sent troops from both sides. Without much effort, they occupied several cities and drove away the defenders of Youzhou. However, Wang Jun's remaining camp is always a threat. 30,000 to 40,000 people, it is not too difficult to regain Changshan County, and even to reopen Jingxing. That way, even if you don't attack Bingzhou, but just rescue the trapped soldiers and horses, you can still leave a lot of trouble.
However, before they even finished rectifying the defeated troops, they simply withdrew their troops neatly. Together with the troops stationed in Jizhou, a lot of troops were also withdrawn. Even if he couldn't get the first-hand letter, Liang Feng knew why.
Yiyan got it!
Go deep into Youzhou, attack Jicheng by surprise, and cause chaos in the rear. In this way, how can he still be able to sit still if he has just lost the coach's direct confidant? Even those soldiers and horses guarding Jizhou have to retreat to prepare for the upcoming power struggle.
This battle, at this moment, is basically over. But where is the first person
Tens of thousands of troops swarmed back, can Yiyan and the others withdraw smoothly? However, in the current situation, even if he wanted to send troops to meet him, he couldn't do it. Yiyan's retreat will definitely not follow the old path again, and even bypass the occupied counties in the north of Jizhou to avoid the enemy. There are thousands of miles on this road, how can I receive people
There is no way to respond, the only thing I can do is to stay in Shangdang and wait for him to come back! Inexplicably, Liang Feng felt that Yiyan would not return to Qinghe, nor would he go to Yecheng. He will go directly through Xingdao and return to Shangdang. As long as he can come back...
"Increase troops in Yecheng, always pay attention to Fukouxing. If Bo Yuan returns, come and report quickly!" Liang Feng ordered without hesitation.
On the side, Cui Ji did not refute. Now that Yi Yan attacked and killed Wang Jun, the story of the chaos in Jicheng had probably already spread. No one would believe that he was alienated. It is the most feasible way for the lord to send troops to Yecheng and stick to Sizhou and Jizhou. There are just some things that cannot be ignored.
"Guarding Yecheng is what it should be. However, Wang Taishou still needs to explain clearly to the court. After all, he is Wang Situ's nephew, so it's a little troublesome." Cui Ji reminded.
Yi Yan made too much noise this time, and even sent someone to kill Wang Ping, completely occupying Ye City. I don't know if he was afraid of Wang Ping's dissent after he left, or he used his head to numb Wang Jun. However, this person was sent by Wang Yan. Now that Sima Yue is dead, Wang Yan has become the most powerful official in the court. Offending him is not good.
Liang Feng smiled coldly: "Wang Jun supported his troops and wanted to go south to Sizhou when the King of the East China Sea died. After Wang Ping heard the news, he was in sympathy with him, and wanted to exchange Yecheng for Wang Jun's reuse. Bo Yuan made a decisive decision and beheaded him. Wang Ping, the surprise attack on Wang Jun's camp, has just resolved the siege of Luoyang."
Cui Ji was stunned, not knowing what to say. This is clearly a reversal of right and wrong, referring to a deer as a horse. But after a moment of stunned, seeing the stern expression of the man in the seat, he knew that this was the answer given by the lord. The only answer for the Son of Heaven in Luoyang City, and Wang Situ, who may be in charge of the power.
Wang Jun was killed, and Wang Ping was also killed, just because these people should be killed! Now that Sima Yue is dead, Chang'an and Hongnong have been captured by the Huns, and with the chaos in Youzhou, how many people are there? Faced with this answer, what can the court say
The princes said, didn't Zhou Tianzi also recognize it? After defeating the invaders from Youzhou, the lord has already embarked on the road to hegemony, how can he retreat!
Feeling agitated in his chest, Cui Ji cupped his hands and replied, "Xiaguan, I'm going to draft a letter and send it to Luoyang!"
Liang Feng nodded slightly and did not answer. He looked past Cui Ji's figure and looked north. All right and wrong, all scolding, he can stop Yiyan, as long as he is safe and sound, he can return as soon as possible!
At the same time, in the territory of Youzhou, a group of remnants of the army was madly fleeing south. Behind them, followed by another cavalry, there are three or four thousand people.
The escape from the city was very smooth, but the return journey was not so safe. Knowing the news of the chaos in Jicheng, the rear army who escorted grain and grass in the territory moved first. These people are all Wang Jun's confidants, who are willing to let go of the thieves who killed Wang Jun and slaughtered Wang's family. These enemies are like hungry wolves chasing their prey, unable to get rid of them.
Seeing that he was about to rush into a mountain col, Yi Yan whispered, "Liu Gong, you bring eight hundred people to ambush, and I'll leave you behind!"
There were only over 1,200 of them left, and they ran around for four or five days in a row. If you don't want to kill this group of enemies, you will end up in Youzhou if you don't think so!
"General! I'll stay! I can stop them!" Liu Gong's mouth cracked, his eyes were red, and he shouted.
"Don't waste your troops, let's go!" Yi Yan waved his hand fiercely, and the whip whipped towards Liu Gong's mount. The horse jumped several feet in shock and ran ahead.
Yi Yan said loudly, "Follow Liu Yingzheng to withdraw first!"
As he said that, he whistled, and the soldiers beside him also slowed down their horses. At this time of crisis, how could Liu Gong argue again? With tears in his eyes, he rode his horse and led his troops to the mountain col.
Lifting the spear in his right hand, Yi Yan turned the horse's head. Behind him, the smoke and dust raised by thousands of riders was like a gauze curtain, making the shadows a little blurry, only the murderous intention was revealed.
He took a light breath. The most difficult task has been completed, and now, all he has to do is escape. Just go back to Bingzhou, back to the lord...
"Kill me!!"
With a horse's belly, the white horse is like an arrow from the string, rushing towards the enemy!
