MTL - Farmer of Shu Han-Chapter 1255 Scolding at the top of the city, confrontation at the bottom of the city

  Chapter 1255 Scolding at the top of the city, confrontation at the bottom of the city

  Three days later, Feng Duhu finally stood on the top of Tianjingguan City, looking to the south.

  The undulating Taihang Mountains are endless and endless.

  The mountains are surrounded by floating clouds, and the autumn sun is shining obliquely, and the green and yellow can still be distinguished nearby.

   Further away, it can only be seen that it is covered with gray and black forests.

   "Does the Central Governor want to overlook Hanoi?"

   Zhang Jiu, who was following behind, saw Feng Duhu's appearance, and couldn't help but asked with a smile.

  After taking Tianjing Pass in three days, the Wuqian Army handed over a pass answer sheet, and Zhang Jiu was in a pretty good mood.

  Because the Wuqian Army was the first battle, I didn't expect to be able to compare with the veteran elites such as the Tiger Army Wudang Army.

  So he didn't have much expectations.

   Fortunately, the opponent this time is not too strong.

   After all, the defenders of Tianjing Pass were forced to raise their morale.

   But this kind of compulsion is irreversible and cannot last.

  Especially in Zhang, he followed Du Yu's suggestion and occupied the hilltops on both sides of Tianjing Pass first, making a detour to cut off the rear of the pass city.

  The garrison on Guancheng, whose morale was already unstable, finally could no longer suppress the panic.

  Even if the guards threatened them, the more times they threatened, the more effective they would be.

  When the Han army made another aggressive attack, the defenders completely lost their will to fight.

  Hearing Zhang Jiu's words, Feng Duhu also smiled, and stretched his fingers forward:

  “Although I want to see a thousand miles away, how can I see Hanoi with towering mountains blocking my eyes?”

   Zhang's eyes lit up, he took a step forward, and asked in a low voice:

   "Does the Central Governor have any interest in Hanoi?"

  What is that place in Hanoi?

   That's Sima Yi's hometown!

   It is also the foundation of the Sima family!

   "Zhongduhu, Taihangxing together, the most dangerous is the Tianjing Pass. Now that the Jingguan Pass has gone down, Sima Shi hastily retreated."

  Zhang swallowed a mouthful of saliva, with excitement on his face, "If the Central Guard leads the army to go south, it may not be impossible to see Hanoi!"

   It seemed that he had expected that Zhang would say this for a long time. Feng Duhu's face remained unchanged, and he just glanced at Zhang with a little strange eyes.

  Zhang was stunned: "Chuhu, could it be that the last general didn't think about it?"

   "No," Feng Duhu shook his head, "I just thought of one sentence."

   "I don't know what it is?"

   “Heroes see the same thing.”

"ah?"

   Zhang did not know why.

  Feng Duhu said leisurely, "Before you, there was another person who made exactly the same statement as you."

   Then he sighed again:

   "I am really convinced of this policy, but, just how can everything in the world be fulfilled?"

  Zhang asked humbly:

   "The last general is dull and doesn't understand the meaning of what Zhongduhu said."

   After all, he was defeated and captured alive by an unknown ghost king, and then he was almost ruined by being tricked.

  General Zhang has always been in awe in front of Zhongduhu.

  No way, certain psychological shadows, coupled with the addition of various rumors, are sometimes difficult to eliminate.

   "Actually, long before you, Yuan Kai had put forward an idea similar to yours, but I considered it again and again, and finally rejected his opinion. Do you know why?"

   "So Du Canjun also proposed this idea?" Zhang was a little surprised, and Du Yu's young face couldn't help appearing in his mind.

  Thinking of his proposal in this battle again, he couldn't help but think to himself:

   No wonder Du Yuankai was able to enter under the guard of Zhongdu and become a direct disciple. This son is indeed remarkable.

   "Yes, he also proposed that after defeating Sima Division, he would take advantage of the situation to take Tianjing Pass, and then take advantage of the big victory to advance to Hanoi."

   "This strategy really appeals to me, but it is currently impossible to achieve."

  Zhang thought about it, and asked tentatively:

   "Does the Central Guard feel that there is not enough troops?"

   "Insufficient troops are one aspect, but more importantly, food and grass."

  Feng Duhu said slowly, "General Zhang, haven't you noticed that this month's rations are half a month late?"

   If it is delayed by another half a month, I am afraid that the Invincible Army will not even be able to take the Tianjing Pass.

   "Insufficient food and grass?"

   Zhang finally woke up.

  With Feng Duhu personally in charge, the army's food and grass affairs will naturally be taken over by the staff group.

   Zhang is the main general, he only needs to lead the army to fight, and he doesn't have to worry about the rest, which is much easier.

   But I didn't expect that the food and grass in the rear were already tight.

   I really didn't expect it.

  Because since he abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, in Zhang Jiu's impression, the big man has always had plenty of money and food, and he never has to worry about logistics and food when marching and fighting.

   "This battle has been fought for too long. All the eight armies in Guanzhong have been dispatched. What is the difference between this and the whole country? The big man is not ready at all."

  Feng Duhu's voice became a little low, "If not, how could I take advantage of Wei thief?"

   The scale of this battle far exceeded everyone's expectations.

   It is estimated that even Sima Yi, the instigator, did not expect to be beaten like this.

  Jihan's side, all the infantry and cavalry were out, and Guanzhong, Bingzhou, Hedong, Longyou, Liangzhou and other places were all empty of troops, food and grass.

  If you want to continue fighting, you can only use the strategic granary of Shu.

   But even if it is to mobilize the food and grass in Shu, how can it be so easy in a hurry?

   Not only will it disrupt Feng Duhu's arrangement in Shu, but more importantly, the road to Shu will be difficult!

   Just transporting grain from Sichuan and then transporting it to the front line, it is really only one out of ten. This statement is a fact, and there is no exaggeration.

  In addition to the long distance, in a hurry, it will have to wait until the end of the year to wait for enough grain and grass to be deployed in central Sichuan to be transported to Guanzhong, and then distributed to the front line.

  By that time, it will be the coldest time. If it is not necessary, the soldiers should take a good rest.

   This break will have to wait until next spring at least.

  After the beginning of spring, farming is more important than fighting.

  The plan for a year lies in spring.

  If the spring plowing work is not done well and there is no food in stock, then wait for people to starve to death.

  Especially in Guanzhong, East Taiyuan and other places, the past few years are the critical period for the implementation of the New Deal.

  If for this battle, too many civilian husbands are transferred, which affects the spring plowing, it will give some people an excuse to criticize the New Deal.

  Trolls won’t tell you the facts and reasons, they just need to catch the result and start tweeting.

  Why did you implement the New Deal, but the harvest was not good?

   It must be the New Deal!

  What war?

   Isn’t fighting a matter ahead?

   There is no bandit army in the rear, how can there be a war?

   Can you find a better excuse?

   Are you unwilling to work harder even when you make excuses?

   It's your New Deal that made everyone hungry!

  So, soldiers, the major affairs of the country must be investigated!

  Feng Duhu, as one of the power holders of the Han Dynasty, had to consider the overall situation and even the future.

   Instead of just looking at the momentary gains and losses in front of you.

  Sima Yi, as a representative of the Kanto family, launched this Shangdang campaign, especially the attack on Taiyuan.

   It does seem a bit risky, and it doesn't seem to fit Sima Yi's usual style.

  So, besides wanting to counterattack the big man.

   It is also doubtful whether it is possible to disturb or even interrupt the implementation of the Dahan New Deal.

   After all, the Great Han Restoration is digging the roots of the aristocratic family!

  Feng Duhu naturally wouldn't tell Zhang all these things.

  However, after knowing that the supply of food in the rear has begun to struggle, Zhang Jiu couldn't help showing a look of exclamation on his face:

   "I see! It is often heard that Jiang Shangshu provides food and grass for the army, and has always had enough food and clothing."

   "I didn't expect that even Jiang Shangshu couldn't deliver the food on time. It seems that it is indeed difficult to raise food."

  As soon as Zhang mentioned Jiang Wan, Feng Duhu coughed uncontrollably, with a strange look on his face.

   How about saying that Jiang Wan is a real person?

  I just asked him to give priority to the supply of the Tiger Infantry Army and the Wuwei Army. Before he thought about it, he really started to delay the food and grass in Hebei.

  If Jiang Wan could hear what Feng Duhu was thinking at this time, he would definitely have to say:

  I have heard that Feng Duhu has a good way of making money. Since Feng Duhu asked me to give priority to supplying food and grass for the Tiger Infantry Army and the Wuwei Army, if I want to come to Feng Duhu's side, I must have a way.

  Of course, it is not wrong for Jiang Wan to trust Feng Duhu so much.

  Because he has indeed thought of a way—that is to kill pigs for the New Year.

  Although there are more than two months before Chinese New Year, and the pigs in Shangdang are not as fat as those in Hedong.

  But people are so hungry, how can they care about the fatness and thinness of pigs?

   Besides, no matter how skinny a pig is, there will always be some taels of meat on it, right?

  There is not enough meat, so there are still pork bones to make soup!

  Knocking the bone and sucking the marrow, isn't it used at this time?

   Let's kill and fill the stomach first!

  Part of the latest batch of grain and grass was sent from the eldest son.

   It is obvious that Shi Bao has deeply understood Feng Duhu's meaning.

   Right now, what Feng Duhu has to consider is how to keep the results of the battle, rather than continue to expand the results.

   Just as the war in Shangdang was calming down, Feng Duhu was preparing to dispatch soldiers to guard the pass.

  Yecheng, Jizhou, which is separated by a Taihang, is about to ignite a raging war.

   Standing at the head of the city of Yecheng, Huan Fan, the Governor of Jizhou in the State of Wei, pointed at the city and cursed:

   "Sima Zhongda, you are the Grand Tutor of the Wei Dynasty, and you are a minister appointed by the late Emperor himself!"

   "You don't want to be loyal to the country, and you don't want to beg for thieves for the country. Now there is no order from the emperor, but you lead the army across the state without authorization, and raise your troops to surround the capital of the Wei Dynasty!"

   "What are you going to do? Are you going to rebel? Emperor Wu has said a long time ago that you are not a good minister, and now you really support the western thief and harm me!"

   "Sima Yi, you have a lizard as your heart, a wolf as your nature, and a heinous crime. The world will not tolerate it!"

   "Everyone who is loyal to Wei is willing to eat your flesh! You are a handsome man! You old thief! You will return to the nine springs soon, how can you face me against the three emperors?"

  …

  Huan Fan jumped and cursed at the top of the city, and the vicious words continued.

  If Sima Yi hadn't cultivated his energy so well, at such a great age, Huan Fan would scold him for having a cerebral hemorrhage, and he would turn over and fall off the horse on the spot.

  It's just that since Sima Yi took the risk of attacking Taiyuan, and then saw that the timing was a little wrong, he immediately diverted to Jizhou, and surrounded Yecheng with lightning speed, so he had planned for a long time.

  Besides, Hanoi County is adjacent to Wei County where Yecheng is located. With the deliberate understanding of people who are interested, Sima Yi may know the situation of Yecheng better than Huan Fan, the governor of Jizhou.

   Although Kuang Huanfan has long-standing expectations, he is dedicated to competing in the world.

   Every time he pastures a field, he is at odds with his colleagues.

  When Dudu Qing and Xu Zhu were in the military, they had a housing dispute with Zou Qi, the governor of Xuzhou during their term of office.

   He even intended to use his power as envoy to kill Zou Qi, so he was reported by Zou Qi and dismissed from office.

   Later, he was reactivated, and he was not satisfied with his relocation to the governor of Yanzhou, so he withdrew soon after.

  After Cao Shuang came to power, seeing him as a fellow villager, he was appointed governor of Jizhou.

  But Huan Fan was not happy because Lu Zhao, the general of Zhenbei at that time and Jizhou Mu Luzhao, became an official later than him, but the official was higher than himself.

  His wife, Zhongshi, was pregnant. After some persuasion, Huan Fan became furious and directly poked Zhongshi's stomach with the handle of the ring-shou knife.

   As a result, both Zhongshi and the unborn child died.

  Huan Fan is a man, as his wife Zhong Shi said, "difficult to be a subordinate" and "difficult to be a superior".

   means neither being a boss nor a subordinate.

  Even if he is reluctant to serve as the governor of Jizhou now, how can his temperament change drastically and he can calm down to understand the affairs of Jizhou?

  He stood at the top of the city, scolding Sima Yi to his heart's content, but the weapon of criticism cannot replace the criticism of weapons, after all, talking can't compare with stone cannon.

  Looking at the large army outside the city, it would be impossible for Huan Fan to say that he was not panicked at all.

  He is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that he will not be able to defend Jizhou.

   What is even more frightening is that, as the governor of Jizhou, he was easily taken away by Sima Yi without any precautions.

   Self-proclaimed that he has always been wise, he has been strong all his life, and never willing to bow down to others.

  Now being played by Sima Yi in the palm of his hand, being surrounded by soldiers at the bottom of the city is like waking up from a dream.

  When the world talks about this matter in the future, I am afraid that they will all laugh at Huan Yuan for being ignorant and foolish, and for vainly betraying the trust of General Cao.

   Thinking up to this point, Huan Fan felt more uncomfortable than killing himself.

  The most terrible thing is that he was indeed played by Sima Yi to "secretly hide his position".

  This fact is irrefutable.

   Shocked, angry, regretful and frightened, Huan Fan naturally wanted to jump.

  He almost used the most vicious words he could think of in his life to scold Sima Yi.

  Compared to Huan Fan's fury and incompetence, Sima Yi is much more at ease.

  Up to now, he couldn't turn back—although he didn't plan to turn back.

   After all, rather than being trapped in Luoyang and waiting to die, it would be better to give it a shot.

  If you can't beat the Western Thieves, can you still beat General Cao and his celebrities?

   He didn't even need to think about excuses, General Cao himself brought the case to his door.

   "Emissary Huan, together with Cao Shuang, was entrusted by the late emperor to assist the emperor. Yi was alone in Luoyang, defending against the western thieves, sleeping all night long, not daring to slack off, and only serving as a screen for the western border for the great Wei."

   "However, Cao Shuang, as a general, took the young emperor to Xuchang, forced the queen mother to another palace, abolished loyalty and goodness in the court, and summoned wolves to the desk."

   "Change the court code, change government orders several times, keep things under control, turmoil among officials and officials, and restlessness among the people."

   "In the mansion of the great general, there are many wives and concubines in the back court, and he privately took seven or eight talented people from the late emperor, thinking of it as a trick."

   "Also fraudulently made an imperial edict, sending fifty-seven talented people to Yetai, so that the former emperor Jieyu could teach them how to perform tricks."

   "Take Taiyue musical instruments without authorization, and ban soldiers in the arsenal. Make a cave room, sparse it around, gather in it, drink and have fun."

"He Yan, Deng Yang, and Ding Mi belonged to the Shangshu, elected by Yan Dian, and the captain of Guisili, who took advantage of his power to dictatorship, divided Luoyang, Yewang Diannong's mulberry fields for hundreds of hectares, and the bad Tangmu land as property and stole it. official stuff."

   "Cao Shuang and the dogs and eagles can be said to monopolize power, act arrogantly and extravagantly, disloyal to the royal family, and not straightforward to human beings."

   Counting Cao Shuang's many crimes in one breath, Sima Yi continued to make people preach loudly:

   "Yi seeks to go to the party and attack Taiyuan. He once turned to Jizhou for help. He hopes to join hands with Huan envoy to help the Great Wei."

   "Ran Huan envoy Jun and Cao Shuang are from the same village, and he was supported by Cao Shuang. He sat back and watched me lead a lone army to fight in Shangdang Taiyuan, without supporting a single soldier."

   "To Shangdang's gain and then to loss, to Taiyuan's attack but not to fall, to my lone army unable to stop the thieves."

   "Looking at Cao Shuang in Xuchang, who is in the rear, controls the treasury, and has a large army. Instead of controlling the Wu Kou in the south, he surrendered Xiangyang to the Wu Kou."

   "I, the Great Wei, have never had the advantage of controlling Wu Kou since then, and this is all Cao Shuang's fault!"

  Huan Fan at the head of the city, before he finished listening, he no longer cared about the demeanor of a celebrity, and swears repeatedly:

   "Fart! You fart! You are talking nonsense, you are talking nonsense, you are slandering the general!"

   Jumping again and again, Huan Fan wished he could fly down to the city and gag Sima Yi.

  But apart from shouting "Sima Yi is talking nonsense", he couldn't refute it with a single word.

   There is no plausible reason to scold Sima Yi at the beginning.

  The reason is very simple, because the things listed by Sima Yi are all real facts, there is no fabricated words.

  Even saying that he sat back and ignored the Shangdang war is half true and false.

  Because Sima Yi did send someone to deliver a letter, saying that he was asked to attack Taiyuan from Jingxing.

  But at that time, who knew that Sima Yi could enter Taiyuan?

   Besides, there was no appointment in the letter when.

  Based on their mutual standpoints, this kind of unclear letter, he naturally only regarded Sima Yi as talking nonsense and making a joke.

  But he didn't expect that someone would use this matter as a demon today.

   "Idiot, idiot, as stupid as a pig dog!"

   This sentence is another scolding of Cao Shuang and Taichung Sangou.

   Not to mention forcing the Empress Dowager to live in another palace, not to mention recruiting talented people from the former emperor as family tricks, not to mention taking Taile musical instruments without authorization, and banning soldiers in the arsenal.

  It is said that "dividing Luoyang, Yewang Diannong Department hundreds of hectares of mulberry fields, and destroying Tangmu land as property, stealing official property".

   into his mother's!

  Henan Luoyang, Hanoi Wild King, those are all Sima Yi's territory, Taichung Sangou, are you poor and crazy?

   Even the royal property in these places, the imperial court dares to grab it!

  Besides, Sima Yi opened his eyes and made you do anything wrong in these two places. Haven't you ever thought about the conspiracy?

   "Emissary Huan, a certain army came here today, not for anything else, but for two things!"

  All I could hear was Sima Yi from under the city shouting again:

   "First, our army has been fighting one after another. The soldiers are exhausted and lack food. It has been many days without enough food. Also, Cao Shuang has not provided food and grass on time and in accordance with the number."

   "That's why I'm here today, and I want to borrow some food and grass from Ambassador Huan."

   "Secondly, I heard that Cao Shuang sent dozens of talented people from the late emperor to Yecheng, so that the late emperor Jieyu could teach them how to perform tricks!"

   "Yi has the guts to go overboard once today. He only wants to avenge the royal family. Please envoy Huan to open the city gate so that Yi can lead people into Yetai and see what happens."

  When Huan Fan heard this, he was in a cold sweat!

  Because of Yetai, there are really talented people sent by Cao Shuang!

   "Cao Zidan is a beautiful woman, as fresh as a calf's ear! We are afraid that we will be implicated and our family will be wiped out!"
