Chapter 121 two
“How many soldiers and horses does Yang Xin have? One hundred thousand! How many soldiers and horses are the leaders of the refugees? At best, they are less than half! And they are a mob! Xiaqiu and Xue’an’s Xuzhou soldiers! Even so, they can lose the battle!”
Wei Shao stood up suddenly, with his hands behind his back, pacing back and forth in front of the case, stepping across the ground, and rubbing into his ears.
“Go and ask him how many soldiers and horses I want to give him before he can knock down that refugee head for me!”
He stopped abruptly and turned around, his tone angrily.
Gongsun Yang was a little surprised.
Yang Xin failed to suppress Bi She as Junhou wished, but instead lost the ground. After learning the battle report, Gongsun Yang also expected that Junhou would be unhappy about it.
But what surprised him was that Junhou’s reaction was so great.
Since the age of seventeen, Junhou has been assisting him, and he has experienced more than a hundred battles, large and small, and it is not that he has not encountered setbacks in attacking cities.
But even if he encounters another big setback, Gongsun Yang rarely sees such a rage from a monarch.
What’s more, although the location of the land is important, even if it is lost, as long as there are no major changes on Xue’an’s side, there will be no major changes to the current situation in the Huainan area.
Junhou’s reaction was really overdone.
Gongsun Yang hurriedly said: “My lord, calm down. Yang Xin was too careless to let Bi She get away. Even though Bi She started out as a group of refugees, I have also heard that not only is bravery rare in the world, but also the way to govern the army. Now it is quite popular in the Huaishui area, and there are countless people who have heard the wind. The lord should not be underestimated.” After saying that, he looked at Wei Shao.
Wei Shao’s back was facing Gongsun Yang, his right hand was on the hilt of the sword, he had already drawn the sword a few inches from the scabbard, the body of the sword was flickering with cold light, and after a while, with a sound of “Yi”, he inserted the sword back and slowly released his grip on the sword. The handle’s fingers, turned around.
“You send a letter on my behalf, sue Yang Xin, and retake Wei as soon as possible at any cost, and put the refugee’s head in Lingbi…” He paused for a while, “Lingbi can’t fall into his hands! Be sure to drive him out! Yes! For material and manpower needs, sue me!”
Gongsun Yang was startled, then hesitated: “My lord, I have something to say, I don’t know if I should say it or not.”
“Sir has something to say, but it’s what you say.”
Wei Shao’s anger seemed to have faded a moment ago, and he sat upright and returned to the back of the case.
“The area of Xuzhou, connecting Yangzhou, Yuzhou, Jiangxia, has been fighting for important territory for military families since ancient times. Although Bishe was born, it should not be underestimated. As the master’s future plans for the world, it is naturally impossible to raise tigers. Just in my opinion, it is not certain. I want the lord to go to war…”
He glanced at Wei Shao.
“I heard that the lady has a sister who seems to be married to Bishe. The lady went south at the end of last year, and General Jia also escorted her to Lingbi to meet the Nabishe couple. Going to meet, it can be seen that the friendship with Bi She and his wife is not shallow. It is not suitable for the enemy to be married, and it is because of kinship? Why doesn’t the lord consider using Fu to replace the war? Not only that, if Bi She can be brought under the lord’s account, the lord will be like a tiger with wings. Why don’t the lord not do things of benefit? Why don’t the lord stop the war first. The lord can discuss with the queen. I don’t think the queen would want to see the lord and Nubuat She draw swords. Turning around, with the prestige of the lord now at home, it is expected that Bi She will be happy to vote…”
“Counselor! Are you worthy of my scrutiny when you are everyone?”
Before Gongsun Yang could finish speaking, Wei Shao interrupted him.
Look indifferent.
“It’s just a rogue leader who occupies a small amount of land! Why do you want me to tolerate it so much? You don’t need to say more! I have made up my mind, and I will never change it! You send a letter to Yang Xin according to what I just said. It’s in hand!”
After saying that, he lifted the hem of his clothes and got up from the desk again, and strode away without looking back.
Gongsun Yang watched the Junhou go away, his brows puzzled.
Gongsun Yang knew very well that after the monarch settled the north and the west again, there would definitely be a head-to-head battle with Xing Xun.
It’s just a matter of time.
If you win, the world will be like a broken bamboo.
If defeated, Lu Ding’s future is uncertain.
It’s not that the situation between Huai Shui and Xuzhou is not important, but at this juncture, the battle with Xing Xun is the key point, and Junhou needs to deal with it with all his strength.
Gongsun Yang did not believe in Junhou and did not know this truth.
He came to Jizhou to summon the generals of the prefectures from all over the country. A few days ago, there were banquets held every night in the Xin Palace, naturally not for fun.
In order to sum up people’s hearts, plan ahead.
Now the Huainan war situation, it is clear that we can first try to solve it without fighting.
According to Gongsun Yang’s thinking, if Bi She refused to be petted, it would not be too late to fight again.
However, if he could take Bishe without a fight, and with his strength and Yang Xin, it would be easy to eat Xuzhou where Xue Tai had already died.
In this way, a large area of beautiful land in the Huaishui area will be captured by the princes without a fight.
Not only the land, but also a general like Bi She who might be able to compete with General Li Dian in the future.
Such a cheap and good thing, why did Junhou insist on going his own way, but he wanted to create a branch outside the festival, and ordered Yang Xin to kill him?
Listening to Junhou’s words, it seems that he looks down on Bi She’s background, so he disdains to use him.
But Gongsun Yang knew that even though the lord and lord were arrogant, they were still commendable in the respect of the virtuous and corporal.
Otherwise, he would not have gathered so many good officials and generals who were willing to be driven by him.
For example, Li Dian, who was born in poverty in his early years, is now the number one general under his command.
It’s a little unusual for him to be so hostile to Bi She.
Gongsun Yang pondered for a long time, and actually had a faint feeling in his heart.
He suspects that the prince will be angry.
The Qiao family, the enemy of the prince and the prince, seems to be addicted to Qiao’s daughter, and there is a hint of inextricability.
Although it had been some time, Gongsun Yang had been gnashing his teeth before he mentioned the Qiao family in front of him again, but based on what Gongsun Yang knew about the emperor, it was impossible for him to let go of his family feud so easily.
Bi She is also half of Qiao’s family.
If Fu Bishe, in Junhou’s view, is probably no different from Fuqiao’s family.
How could he let go so easily?
Can only think so. Otherwise, Gongsun Yang really couldn’t figure out why Junhou’s attitude was so stubborn and unreasonable.
In the council hall, Gongsun Yang, twisting his beard, slowly paced back and forth.
He also thought about whether to transfer the news to the lady.
It may be better for her to persuade her to come forward than to wear the skin of her lips.
But he quickly rejected the idea.
Obviously, Junhou ordered Yang Xin to expel Bishe, and this matter should be kept from the female monarch.
In the army, although he was treated with respect by the princes and princes on weekdays, the princes and princes listened to almost everything he said, and the officers and soldiers respected his status.
But his official position is military division.
The so-called military division, supervising military affairs, military staff. The final decision, follow orders.
If it was for other reasons, when Junhou did such an unreasonable act, Gongsun Yang would be risking a crime, and he would definitely think about it again.
But Junhou Ruo was really out of this selfishness that he had just figured out, and insisted on destroying Bi She, which involved the hatred of the Wei Qiao family.
He is a military adviser, and the first point of view to look at the problem is that it is related to the military.
Judging from the current situation in the Huaishui area, it would be best if Yang Xin succeeded and the Bishe forces were destroyed.
If Yang Xin fails, he should be able to maintain the current triangular situation. No matter how outstanding Bishe’s ability is, it is unlikely that he wants to attack Yang Xin in the short term, and then swallow all Xuzhou. It has no major impact on the overall situation.
Therefore, Gongsun Yang hesitated for a while, and finally decided to act according to the wishes of the prince.
For the time being, let him be willful only once. Watch the situation change, and then adapt accordingly to make a decision.
…
The next day, Xiao Qiao was ready to leave, but Wei Shao told her that due to sudden changes, she would not leave for now and would stay in Xindu for a few days.
He looked as usual when he spoke, how could Xiao Qiao guess that his purpose of temporarily changing his schedule and staying behind was for the Huainan war? He only said that it was inconvenient for him to talk to himself about the important matters of a man, and he didn’t ask any more questions. He just told Chunniang to take out the luggage that had been put away.
After such a stay, another ten days passed. We didn’t see when Wei Shaoti would leave again.
However, he knew that he sent a letter to Mrs. Xu, who had already returned to Yuyang, saying that he had to postpone going back to Mianci because of the fetters.
He also said that he and himself are getting along very well now, please rest assured grandmother.
Xiao Qiao also wrote a letter.
In her heart, Bishe Daqiao and his wife were in mind. It was inconvenient to ask Wei Shao about the current battle situation in the Huaishui area, so he sent a letter to Da Qiao to ask them about their current situation.
She handed the letter to Jia Xi privately, and told him to send a trusted messenger to Lingbi as soon as possible.
Here and Lingbi, although the Yellow River is also in the middle, but the road is already a lot closer.
When the letter was handed over to Jia Xi, she specifically asked how long it would take to receive a reply.
Jia Xi said that if there is no accident on the road, it will be enough to go back and forth within half a month.
After the letter went out, Xiao Qiao kept her head up and waited for an answer.
…
half a month later. Lingbi.
Da Qiao was lying on the side of the bed, shaking the rattle in his hand to make a crisp sound like raindrops, teasing the baby sitting in the bed.
The baby’s nickname is Li’er. She is only half a year old. She raised a chubby baby, loves to laugh very much, and is extremely cute. Sitting next to her mother at the moment, attracted by the sounding drum in her hand, she stretched out a pair of fleshy little hands, babbling in her mouth.
Da Qiao gave the rattle to Li’er.
Li’er grabbed her hand, shook it a few times, and when she heard the voice, she looked at her mother, as if she was surprised, and then giggled happily.
Da Qiao played with his son for a while, and saw that the baby was getting sleepy, so he fed him full stomach.
The baby slept peacefully with her tender cheeks against her mother’s warm skin.
Da Qiao looked at the baby who was sleeping in his arms, and his eyes were full of tender love from a new mother. Suddenly thinking of her husband Bishu, who is still fighting in the land at the moment, she is worried again.
Just a few days ago, Yang Xin, who was repelled, came back again.
Although Bi She didn’t tell her, she also heard that Yang Xin attacked again, with great momentum and aggression. Plus the Xuzhou Army is in the north.
Big Joe was really worried.
She thought about it for several nights and couldn’t sleep well. At this moment, his son was sleeping peacefully next to him, and the room was silent in the afternoon. Gradually, tiredness struck, and gradually he closed his eyes. In a daze, she felt that her face was gently touched by fingers, thought Li’er woke up, and immediately opened her eyes, only to find that her husband, Bi She, had returned unexpectedly, and was sitting beside the bed at this moment.
It was his palm that touched his face just now. The baby was still sleeping soundly beside her.
She looked at her husband’s smiling eyes, afraid of waking up her son, so she slowly got up, and then fell into her husband’s arms.
Feeling her husband’s strong and steady heartbeat, the anxiety and anxiety in Da Qiao’s heart suddenly disappeared.
…
Da Qiao called her wet nurse to take care of Li’er, and went to another room with her husband.
Bi She hugged her onto the couch and undressed her. The two rubbed their ears and hugged each other tightly.
After the wedding, Da Qiao put her pillow on her husband’s shoulder and asked, “How is the war?”
Bi She hugged his wife and said, “The land is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and you won’t be able to get in for a while. Don’t worry.”
Da Qiao was puzzled and said, “Didn’t Yang Xin have a bad relationship with the Xue family originally? Why didn’t he fight Xue An now, but instead tried to embarrass you again and again?”
Bi She said: “I came back because I wanted to tell you this. Yesterday I captured a lieutenant who was walking around Yang Xin. After the trial, I learned something…”
When Da Qiao saw him stop, he turned over and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Bi She hesitated, stared at Da Qiao, and said slowly, “According to what the deputy general said, Yang Xin seems to have already invested in Marquis Yan.”
