In Shanyin, in the Lie Mansion of Zhenxi City, Lie Feiyang was roaring with red eyes to express his inner anger.
"What's the point of raising you wastes? The enemy troops have sneaked into Zhongxing Mountain, and none of you have noticed. Are you all blind..."
In recent times, it can be said that everything has been going wrong for Lie Feiyang.
After the death of General Bao, although he stabilized the one hundred thousand soldiers and horses with the help of Tie Zhongyang and mastered the Flame Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, when he returned to Shanyin, the place was already in chaos.
Various rumors about the death of General Bao are flying everywhere, and the most widely circulated version is that he planned to kill his father and put the blame on his sister's husband, Huangfu Mingfeng.
When he first heard this rumor, Lie Feiyang was so angry that he wanted to go on a killing spree.
Although he used the Battle of Xirong to gather those 100,000 soldiers and horses, and after returning to Shanyin again, he was still the strongest force and had enough confidence to bring order to the chaos.
However, it was precisely because of the delay in gathering these 100,000 troops that after he came back, the pattern of civil strife in Shanyin was completely formed.
Including him and the other two forces involved in the civil war, no one was willing to use their weapons lightly, and no one wanted to eventually develop into a military battle.
Ever since Zhenbei General's Mansion was stabbed in the back by Huangfu Mingzhao's court, Zhenbei General's Mansion has suffered the most serious loss of troops among the four towns. After a battle, more than one-third of the troops and horses were lost.
, although they were replaced with reserves, the overall combat effectiveness of the Zhenbei Army was inevitably reduced.
If they were fighting an internal war, Zhenbei would really become the weakest among the four towns in the future.
Originally, the Zhenbei forces of Shanyang Road took a neutral attitude towards the civil strife in Zhenbei and did not easily bet on either side.
It was Tie Zhongyang who spared no effort and ran to Shanyang Road several times before the other side relented and began to lean towards their side. But it seemed that it was time to start a fire while it was hot. Once he had this power
The addition of this can be the final step that breaks the camel's back, completely unbalancing the forces involved in the civil strife.
But it was at this time that something like this actually happened.
Even if you don't consider this matter for now, the geographical location of the Zhongxing Mountains is also important to Zhenbei Mansion and its surroundings.
Shanyin alone cannot support a Zhenbei Army. In the past, the Zhenbei Army was Da Cang's frontier army and was supported by the imperial court. But if there is no imperial court now, a Zhenbei Prefecture and a Shanyin alone would be enough.
Resting on one’s laurels can help sustain the company in the short term, but it is by no means a long-term solution.
If this place is not taken back, the future decline of the Zhenbei Army will be almost visible to the naked eye.
Under Lie Feiyang's scolding, all the generals below bowed their heads in grievance. No one dared to speak out at this time, because this would only make Lie Feiyang even more angry.
At this moment, Tie Zhongyang walked in with a solemn expression and said in a deep voice: "General, I just received the news that Wang Pengfei has sent troops to Shanyang. There is an army of 150,000, and Shanyang is short of major generals, so it can't support much."
A long time. Get Zhongxing Mountain back as soon as possible, otherwise, the Zhenbei Army will be doomed."
"By taking Zhonghang Mountain, our Zhenbei Army will have the possibility to keep Shanyang."
"Gongsun Zan has already led the white horse Yi Cong and 20,000 soldiers and horses!"
"However, those 20,000 soldiers and horses are new soldiers rather than old soldiers. I'm afraid they are still in danger!" A general sighed.
In these troubled times, the situation in the world changes day by day, making the hearts of these old people exhausted.
"This matter is no longer our family's business. If Zhongxing Mountain is lost, the two families will also be in trouble!"
"Furthermore, Wang Pengfei has gained such a great reputation in recent years that he has built up a much larger family fortune!" While speaking, the general glanced at Lie Feiyang cautiously.
In the past, I thought this person was pretty good, but comparing one person to another is hard, and comparing goods is a waste!
"Here we come with an army of 150,000 people. Even if our army takes back Zhonghang Mountain and wants to retreat from the enemy and secure Shanyang Road, without the help of those two people, it will be difficult for our army alone!"
"The general continued.
"My two good uncles are shrewd people. I'm afraid they will understand these principles!" Lie Feiyang gritted his teeth.
During this period of time, his two uncles had done everything they could to deal with him!
"This matter is not urgent. What I am worried about is how this enemy army managed to sneak all the way to the Zhonghang Mountains without concealing the knowledge from the soldiers and civilians along the way!" Tie Zhongyang said deep in thought.
By the time this group of soldiers and horses had arrived at the Zhonghang Mountains, the news had just reached the Daofu Yamen. Before Shanyang Dao could react, Zhonghang Mountains had already been lost. Behind this, it was really hard not to let many people know.
think.
Hearing what Tie Zhongyang said, Lie Feiyang's eyes suddenly flashed with cold light, and he said murderously: "There is a traitor."
Although the Lie family's bad temper is inherited from the same origin, and it is easy to make mistakes at critical times, the IQ of this family is still online.
"What?"
All the generals exclaimed.
"If no one helps to hide it, the enemy army will never be able to reach Zhongxing Mountain so easily, so there must be an enemy traitor in Shanyang Road." Tie Zhongyang said firmly.
Everyone nodded secretly when they heard this. After all, the enemy's surprise attack on the mountain was too secretive and too sudden. It would be unjustifiable without a traitor.
"There is a letter from Shanyang Road. Ningyue County and Qishan County discovered traces of the enemy's march. In other words, the enemy army came to Zhonghang Mountain through these two counties."
"If there is a traitor, it must be within these two counties, and he must be in a high position to do all this." Tie Zhongyang judged.
However, this scope is really not feasible. Among the two counties, those who have the ability to do these things cannot be stopped with two hands. Even if a few unlikely candidates are eliminated, the remaining candidates will still have one hand.
A lot more quantity.
Moreover, even if you want to kill them all at once, it is not easy to do. The key is that there are many people on Shanyang Road who were originally civil and military officials in Shanyang Road. If so many officials are eliminated at once, those people who are now there will inevitably
The death of the rabbit makes the fox sad.
Under such circumstances, such a big fight would be self-defeating.
"The top priority is to spread the word to Shanyang Dao and watch over Lu Zheng and Lie Ya!" Lie Feiyang said to himself.
These two people are leading troops. If you can't tell who is the traitor at the moment, if you keep an eye on these two people, the situation will not deteriorate to the worst degree.
As for who the real traitor is, we can only find out slowly.
