After the death of Sima Yue, the battle of seclusion became the primary event that Luoyang Chaotang paid attention to. However, when the curtain came to an end and the defense case was filed, the emperor in the palace never showed the slightest joy.
The sudden death of Wang Jun is really a relief. This son's wolf ambitions, and his Xianbei soldiers and horses are even more brutal. If there is a chance to come to Luoyang, if it is not good, it will repeat the same trick. As the rear, the three states of You and Ji will no longer be in chaos, which is also of great benefit to the stability of Luoyang.
It's just that this battle was won too easily.
On the side, Wang Yan, who had just been promoted to Taiwei and was still standing at the head of the courtiers, said in a low voice, "This countermeasure is really subtle. Your Majesty, the first victory in Bingzhou, we should make arrangements early."
Sima Yue's accidental death did not affect Wang Yan in any way. On the contrary, when Sima Yue and Gou Xi had a bad relationship before, his attitude of not helping each other made the little emperor relax his guard. Coupled with the sudden loss of the pillar of Sima Yue, the DPRK also needs a person of equal status as a substitute. After several deliberation, the little emperor still appointed the head of the celebrity.
For such an appointment, Wang Yan did not shirk, and even took the initiative to help Gou Xi, let him introduce troops into Luoyang, and drive all the princesses and heirs of Sima Yue back to the fief. As for whether there will be any accidents when these people return, how could Wang Yan care? With such a move, it is considered that he has completely courted the emperor and the newly appointed governors of the three states of Yu, Yan, and Qing, and has achieved tangible benefits.
It's just that this high position did not make Wang Yan appear frivolous, and even more restrained. Just like this moment. Yi Yan's killing of Wang Ping made Wang Yan extremely annoyed, and even more regretted that he had easily fallen into other people's schemes. But to stumble the other party, it was such an understatement.
arrange? What arrangement? Disposal or reward? Did the Governor of the State become a new Wang Jun, or even Sima Yue, who might threaten the Son of Heaven
And that "countermeasure" hides a lot of mysteries.
The little emperor's face really became more and more solemn. He had just imitated Wang Yan's method and used a stratagem to force Sima Yue to death. Before he could taste the fruits of victory, the three northern states were turned upside down by a stratagem.
It turns out that in this world, there are really loyal ministers and good generals who cannot be moved by fame, fortune and wealth. But such a courtier, his allegiance is not his emperor. He even killed two important court officials, and even went deep into Jicheng, slaughtering Wang Jun's family. This Jie slave, has he ever put the Son of Heaven in his eyes? And Liang Feng, who can use this fierce general, is the person he can control
The seeds of doubt had already fallen into his heart. The little emperor thought that by getting rid of Sima Yue, a powerful minister, he would be able to show his hands and feet all day long after he had a general overview of his power. But what about the reality? Gou Xi has no intention of entering the dynasty for the time being, and the tens of thousands of troops are still trying to gain territory for themselves in Yu and Yan. The Xiongnu had already occupied Yongzhou, captured the two counties of Hongnong and Shangluo, and completely occupied most of Sizhou. And Yi Yan, who was originally arranged in Hebei and guarded half of Sizhou, tore off the perfunctory mask and turned to the old master again.
In this way, sitting alone in Luoyang, what is the difference between his emperor and Zhou emperor
It turned out that the provincial governor he personally picked was also like this. Does he have anyone he can trust
But even if he was suspicious, Sima Tan would not reveal it. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Liang Qing's merit is high this time, it is better to also lead the governor of Jizhou, fief Wanhu, and enter Anbei general. The military affairs of Youzhou are temporarily led by Wuchen, the official department of Liaoxi County."
Just one sentence gave Wang Yan a certainty in his heart. Although Duan Wuwuchen was from Xianbei, but he married Wang Jun's daughter and lost many people in Bingzhou, he was definitely not angry with Liang Zixi. Let him temporarily lead Youzhou Governor, is to curb the rise of Bingzhou. Therefore, no matter how much he added to the ranks, the little emperor's suspicion and dissatisfaction with Liang Zixi had also been hidden.
I can't move you now, but the means should be used. Wang Yan knew better than anyone the intelligence of the little emperor in front of him. And this cleverness, if blindly suppressed and threatened, will turn into suspicion. Is a wise and suspicious emperor easy to deal with? As long as he is in power, Liang Zixi will suffer.
Hiding his thoughts in his heart, Wang Yan said yes. Soon, the envoy left Luoyang and headed for Bingzhou with the edict and the reward.

After stopping at Hukou Pass for one night, Liang Feng drove back to Lucheng. It's true that Yi Yan has too many injuries on his body and needs to rest in a hurry. Liang Feng also put aside his plan to return to Jinyang, and prepared to stay in Shangdang to deal with unfinished chores.
Duan Qin seemed a little anxious about this decision: "The lord should return to Jinyang early. Bingzhou should be settled at the beginning, and people should be calm."
"Bingzhou is fixed, but Jizhou still needs some time. I am not in Jinyang, but I can let Sun Biejia let go." Liang Feng did not take the advice and replied lightly.
Hearing what he said, Duan Qin had no choice but to return to official business: "General Yi's words were not bad. When the battalion roared that day, some of the soldiers of the Tiger and Wolf Battalion escaped in the chaos, half of them returned to Zhao County, and some went to Yecheng. , the real number should not exceed one thousand one hundred. Unfortunately, there are no corpse military cards left, and it is impossible to accurately count them for the time being."
The military card is the identity proof of the soldiers of the Liang family. If you are killed and cannot collect the body, you can take back the military card and set up a tomb. However, this time all the way was extremely dangerous, and most of them never got their military cards back.
Liang Feng sighed lightly: "Wait until the soldiers from Yecheng return, and count the number again. All the soldiers who are confirmed to be killed must be recorded on the military records. In addition, the Tiger Wolf Camp will raise its military name, and the participating soldiers will be promoted to the third rank. , the military field is doubled, and the survivors are all supported by the governor's house. Those who have no heirs can adopt stepchildren, and those who have heirs can directly enter the Chongwen Museum to study."
This reward is the highest treatment. However, some of these people voted earlier than Duan Qin, and they were all direct descendants of the direct line. Such a huge loss, how can we not treat it seriously.
Duan Qin nodded and said again: "And General Yi. After all, there is an official position, whether..."
Before he could finish his words, Liang Feng waved his hand: "Yi Yan's injury is too serious, let's replace the commander of Jizhou with Zhang He. This time we have to wait for the emperor's will, maybe the officials in the state will have a big move. .Wait back to Jinyang, and then make detailed arrangements."
This is what it should be. If Jizhou is won, a whole set of officials will be arranged to take over. This is a big project, how can it be settled in three or two sentences
But what Duan Qin wanted to say was not this. After hesitating for a moment, he finally bowed his head: "Xiaguan, I will make arrangements."
After briefly handling official business, Liang Feng didn't stay in the front hall for much, and went straight back to the backyard. Now Cui Ji's family is living in the prefect's mansion, there are not many vacant courtyards, and Liang Feng only occupies one courtyard. It is also very rare to place Yi Yan in a side compartment of the hospital, saying that it is for the convenience of diagnosis.
This may be a little out of the norm, but Yi Yan is a well-deserved leader in this war. Liang Feng's favor did not make people think.
Without going back to his room, Liang Feng directly pushed open the door of Yi Yan's bedroom. Seeing the man on the couch, he was slightly taken aback, stepped forward, reached out and grabbed the man's chin: "Did you shave? Did you shave yourself?"
Yi Yan's face has recovered to a smooth and clean surface, the messy stubble has been cleaned up, and even the hair has been washed. Shampoo must be served by a maid, but this beard is not very decent, and there are several cuts on the cheeks. Clearly someone did it by hand.
Brushing his fingertips over the man's face, Liang Feng shook his head: "The hands are not neat yet, why don't you let the servants come?"
Yi Yan blushed a little, and said in a low voice, "I'm not used to letting others shave..."
Liang Feng raised his eyebrows: "I'm not afraid to cut my face."
These words made the blushing fade a little bit, and seemed to be really anxious, Yi Yan said, "I won't be so reckless next time..."
Liang Feng interrupted him: "If there is an injury, don't worry about it. Wait until the injury is healed."
Saying that, he let go of Yi Yan's cheek. Unsurprisingly, those blue eyes dimmed a little. This kid has really turned sex. Liang Feng smiled bitterly in his heart. I don't know if it was because I cried a little embarrassedly that day, or because my body couldn't take it anymore and my energy was low. Yi Yan has been so obedient for the past two days, it's like taking care of a dream. For fear that one of his own inadvertent actions will shatter this hard-earned dream again.
This caution made Liang Feng feel a little at a loss. On weekdays, he might even make fun of him. However, Yi Yan was seriously injured and overworked, so the doctor specially ordered to restrain his emotions and not be overjoyed and sad for the time being. Liang Feng also rested his thoughts, but the two of them got along and returned to the situation of respecting each other.
However, Liang Feng did not complain about this "slow" progress. To be honest, he needs some time to digest and adapt. For Yi Yan, this was sudden. Is it not to him
Take it slow and let it take its course.
"Master Duan has already checked it, and after the camp roar, hundreds of people escaped. Those who died this time will also be rewarded generously." Liang Feng changed the subject.
Hearing this, Yi Yan's expression darkened again: "Tiger-Wolf Camp has hurt his vitality, I'm afraid it will be difficult to restore the old view."
"As long as someone survives, the establishment will not disappear. The Tiger and Wolf Battalion will not be damaged, but should also expand the army. This light cavalry to defeat the enemy, with the example of a thousand battles, will be passed down with the military's aspirations. Now that it has formed an alliance with the Tuoba Department, Horses are no longer a problem. Let's train a similarly strong army." Liang Feng's expression became solemn.
The title of honor has always been the soul of the army. At the beginning of the establishment of the three battalions, Liang Feng focused on aspects of things. Those tragic and majestic war histories will only be passed down with the name of the army and become the place of glory and the soul of the army. And with this kind of soul, the establishment will never disappear, it will only become stronger and more cohesive. Yi Yan's battle this time has truly lived up to the name of the tiger!
Yi Yan's breathing was a little short, and he lowered his eyes slightly: "Thank you, Lord."
This time, most of the veterans of the Tiger and Wolf Battalion were defeated, and it was the elites he brought out by himself, which always made Yiyan feel ashamed. But the difficulty of this battle, and even the madness, is unavoidable. The superposition of the two sides has become a kind of torture. The words of the lord are not only for himself, but also great comfort for those brothers who have lost their robes.
Seeing Yiyan so moved, Liang Feng's heart was also twisted. The number of battles he has fought is almost clear, but this is the first time that he has been so shocked. You can imagine how difficult the battle of Youzhou was.
Gently patted his arm, Liang Feng said, "Sleep a little longer. I'll call you when it's time to eat."
After traveling for too long, a layer of flesh and blood has been rubbed off on Yiyan's feet. What's worse is that he fell off the horse before, and his calf seems to have two fractures. I don't know how I insisted on going back to Sizhou. Now it is tightly bandaged, and it is impossible to go to the ground at all. Coupled with excessive fatigue, most of the day I slept on the couch.
Yi Yan nodded, but instead of lying down directly, he stretched out his hand and gently grabbed Liang Feng's finger: "If there is nothing wrong with your lord, stay with me for a while."
Accompany him and watch him sleep? The hand that was held lightly was completely cracked, rough like sandpaper, and there was an unknown amount of bandages wrapped around the palm. Liang Feng didn't break free, he just let him hold it: "I'm here. Go to sleep."
With the promise, Yi Yan lay down at ease. It didn't take much effort, and fell into a deep sleep again.
The hand was dry and somewhat hot due to inflammation. However, with such a simple light touch, Liang Feng's heart was calmed down. Leaning back, he changed to a more comfortable position. The hands that were clasped together never let go.
