"When you are about to arrive at your residence, you take advantage of the void in the back wall and enter the courtyard." [Go to the Seven Lots]
Although Pei Mao was a scribe and had practiced swordsmanship for several years, but now he was in the upper position, he showed a hint of coercion that Wang Yue did not dare to despise. He vaguely sensed that the other party was angry, and quickly lowered his head.
He said: "Yuexun, Zangke, Yizhou and other places have Yi kings such as the Gao family and the Yong family. They separated the region, and Liu Yizhou was not very submissive at that time. Now that Yizhou is in turmoil, if the court does not show force
, I’m worried that they will be dissatisfied.”
"The imperial court has its own good strategies for managing those foreign tribes. You came to the imperial court late and didn't know about it yet. I don't blame you for that." Seeing this, Xun You gently turned away from the conversation and suddenly asked Wang Yue: "I remember
Is this Zhao Wei Brazilian?"
"What Shizhong Xun said is that Zhao Wei was originally the Taicang Order of the imperial court and entered Shu with Liu Yizhou." Yang Huai replied.
In fact, I also know that when Zhao Qian was a former general, Dong Zhuo sent him to lead his troops south to join forces with Jia Long from Yizhou to attack Liu Yan. If Zhao Qian was related by blood to the Zhao family in Shu County, there was no reason why he would not support Zhao Qian.
Qian's military action, there is no reason to raise troops to resist at this time.
"Bajun really has a vast territory and a large number of soldiers." Xun You said casually, lowered his head and thought for a while, then suggested to Pei Mao: "For the current plan, we should capture Zitong first, and then send elite troops to go south along the Zitong River and capture it.
Deyang County. If Zhao Wei wants to send troops into Shu County, he must go up the river, and Deyang is the place he must pass through. If Deyang is lost, he will retreat to Guanghan County. And we can lead the remaining troops to go south quickly and advance to the capital.
, once Shu County is obtained, the overall situation of Yizhou will be settled."
"March in several directions, isn't it a bit dangerous to use troops?" Pei Mao looked at Xun You with a complicated look. Their original plan was to divide the troops into two groups, with Xu Huang blocking Zhang Lu on the flank on one side, and the main force on the other going south to Jiange and Zitong.
.Now that there are changes in Yizhou, these places in the south are no longer dangerous places blocking the road, but Zhao Wei is far away in Jiangzhou. The mountains are far away and the rivers are long. They may not be able to march as fast as they can on flat ground. At this time, can we divide the army again?
It was cost-effective and feasible, but Pei Mao couldn't figure it out.
Xun You stared at him, shook his head and said: "We want to take advantage of them and catch them by surprise! Now Xu Huang is supposed to engage Zhang Lu, and Zhao Yu is far away in Jiangzhou. How can he know the speed of our army's advance? He must have thought that
We are still in the sword pavilion. We are worried about Zhang Lu and dare not divide our troops. Now we want to take advantage of Zhang Lu's unpreparedness. There is a saying in the art of war that 'the more you have, the more likely you are to win'. This means that you can outmaneuver them."
"Our army has come from afar, so we can fight quickly." Pei Mao thought about it for a long time, and finally seemed to be moved by the opponent. He said word by word: "Now that the natural barrier of Shu has been lost, everything it passes is flat ground. I forgive them.
There’s nothing I can do!”
So Pei Mao ordered his generals to pack up, leaving more than a thousand auxiliary soldiers to guard Jiameng, and led the remaining 50,000 to 60,000 people all the way south. After repelling everyone, he left Xun You alone and said: "The disaster of Shu! Although Wang Yue
It has not been stated clearly, but these famous scholars and scholars may have seriously damaged the culture of Shu. Yang Gong, Ren Gong and others have worked hard and promoted education in Yizhou for decades, but I am afraid that all their achievements have been wasted."
"The first thing to do when recovering Yizhou is to recuperate." Xun You also had a slight headache. Although he didn't like to make random guesses without evidence, what happened here was too strange.
In order to make the transition of power in Yizhou smooth, Liu Yan could adopt many methods. He even had time to announce his decision to surrender to the imperial court directly in front of everyone before his death. This would not have led to Liu Mao's rebellion and seizure of power, and Yindu would have suffered.
In the situation of Bingxian, this kind of almost vengeful behavior can only be described as dementia. But why did Liu Yan insist on killing a group of scholars without hesitation before his death? Is it purely to get these disobedient people to be restrained?
, the powerful men who threatened his former power were buried with him?
Maybe someone was instigating behind the scenes and promising benefits.
It seems that I have obtained the capital of Xi, and I will make plans after contacting Lai Min, Pei Jun and others.
Xun You thought about this, and he had a strange feeling in his heart. It was not the annoyance of being saved by that person, but a question suddenly popped up in his heart:
"Why did I come to Yizhou?"
This question made Xun You distracted, and Pei Mao said a few times before hearing: "Xun Jun!"
"Oh." Xun You came back to his senses and said apologetically: "I lost my temper."
"It's rare to see Mr. Xun being so absorbed in his thoughts." Pei Mao smiled generously, served him a bowl of tea, and said, "I just said that after taking Shu County and other places, Yizhou's first priority is to recuperate. But this
It is not our duty to recuperate and recuperate. What I mean is that since the situation in Yizhou has been decided, we might as well report the victory and ask the imperial court to select capable personnel to go south to take over."
Xun You seemed to have thought of something and responded repeatedly: "That's right. If Yizhou wants to be stable, it should have officials as soon as possible."
It was rare to see Xun You, who had always had opinions, support his decision for once, and Pei Mao's mood improved a lot. The next day, he packed up his troops and headed south. The journey was extremely smooth, and everything he passed was to open the city to welcome the king.
After the division's army arrived at Zitong, because Zhao Wei was no more likely than Zhang Lu to surrender without a fight, Pei Mao sent Gaishun, the eager general of Zhonglang, to lead the Huben army south along the river and divide his troops to attack Zhao Wei.
In the next few days, not only did the army march down to Fujian, Mianzhu, Luoxian and other places, but they also gathered troops along the way, numbering 78,000 to 80,000. The momentum was so great that the whole of Yizhou was shaken as the news spread.
Even Zhang Lu, who was far away in Bajun, was in turmoil. After learning that Pei Mao and other troops broke through the pass and went south, and a series of miscalculations in the capital's arrangements, especially when he heard that his mother, Mrs. Lu, and his only son Zhang Fu were in prison, he
He immediately panicked and called Yan Pu to ask for advice.
"Luo Yao, that thief! I really shouldn't have trusted him in the first place. Now that I'm defeated and devastated, he still wants me to fight with my troops! This person has done me a lot of harm, and I have to behead him!" Zhang Lu
First he deeply blamed himself, and then softened his tone and said: "However, even if I kill him with my hands, the deadlock here is still difficult to solve. I hope Yan Gong can teach me."
"It's really difficult to kill Luo Yao alone." Yan Pu sat on the banquet, half-opened his eyebrows, and said leisurely: "Now the Liu family has accepted the fate, and has been blessed with good fortune. It's the result of history. Why don't we wait at this moment?
Tian Fengcheng, when will we wait? When I was in Hanzhong, I tried to persuade my master, but have you forgotten those words now?"
"How dare I forget." Zhang Lu said. He had indeed listened to Yan Pu's words and was trying to preserve his strength. Fortunately, he would have enough capital to bargain with the court when he surrendered. But after entering Bajun, he saw Liu Mao for too much.
He took the initiative to contact himself. The situation in Shu County seemed to be solvable, so he started thinking again under the instigation of Luo Yao. He used his prestige in the hearts of Du Yi, Pu Hu and other Yi kings with seven surnames who occupied Ba County to organize
A group of soldiers and horses came, trying to slowly march towards Shu County.
If the imperial court had failed at Baishui Pass at that time, he might not have had a chance. But now it seems that he had taken it for granted.
He knew that Yan Pu had some complaints about what he had done, so he lowered his attitude even more and said sincerely: "Yan Gong! Please save me!"
Yan Pu sighed helplessly, then raised his eyes to Zhang Lu and said softly: "Now that Xu Huang and other troops have arrived in Langzhong, doesn't Master still know what to do?"
