Chapter 409: bad news

\"\"=\\'\')\"=\)\">

ps: Chapter 2 is in the afternoon

"Yi Yi was breached?"

When he heard the news, Fan Jishe was sitting dozing off in the Yi Temple where Koyi was burning with warm charcoal fire. He suddenly woke up and was stunned again and again. ..△↗,

From the beginning of the war, Fan Jishe never really wanted to fight with Qi people, and Wei people just gave him an excellent excuse.

Because in Fan Jishe's mind, the people of Qi were too powerful, and to attack Yiyi, the Marquis of Qi invested a total of 2,000 troops and 50,000 troops, not including the more than 10,000 partisans of the Chen family who confronted Zhongxing Jiahe. In Jin, there were only two ministers and officials confronting him head-on. The Bank of China had 15,000 soldiers, and after the first division of Yiyi's garrison was reimbursed, only 12,000 remained on the west bank of the river. The Fan clan dispatched 12,000 people, and the Handan clan 8,000 people. Because of the sudden rebellion of Wei Hou, they were delayed for half a month, and they were not able to arrive in time. Only the more than 1,000 people who set out earlier got in.

As for the Zhao family who was supposed to be the Marshal of the Royal Qi this time...

Thinking of this, Fan Jishe was full of resentment. Zhao Yang lost the good habit of putting the country before the family. He ignored Yiyi who was besieged and went directly to Chuqiu to threaten Puyang. And his son went south to Pushui, and now he has seized a large piece of land and population in Wei: Juye, Chuiqiu, Lishan, Shengdou, Chengpu, and now he has crossed Pushui to besiege Qingqiu, which can be called this time. The biggest winner of the war.

Because there is not much territory in the east of Taihang, the three ministers in the Liuqing are indifferent to the war with the state of Qi, and they use various excuses to hide in the country.

However, although Fan Jishe had a deep prejudice against Zhao, he had to admit that Zhao Yang played really beautifully. You Wuzheng's 2,000-mile rush was astounding, after Zhao Bing crossed the river. The situation between the rivers changed dramatically.

After the Wei people learned that Punan had fallen, Weihou hurriedly sent someone to contact Fan Jishe. Fan Jishe didn't want to fight against the guards who were also mobilized across the country, so he turned a blind eye and let them off the battlefield. The Fan family also set out from Zhongmou, and who would have thought that they would go to Coyi in the middle, and Yiyi would be gone.

"This city will fall sooner or later."

When he said this, Fan Jishe felt regret for not being able to arrive in time, and felt guilt for Xing Yin, who is also his friend and brother, but more than that, he felt relieved.

Although it is a pity that Yiyi has a population of 50,000 or 60,000. There are also the defenders of the first division of the Bank of China, and the two thousand forwards of Fan and Bank of China. However, compared to the damage to the main force of the Bank of China and the influence of the power balance of the six ministers in the country, it is still cost-effective to lose one-tenth of the population. As for the captured soldiers, perhaps through diplomacy and conspiracy, the Chen family who is related to the Fan family can help to redeem them.

"Of course, it was broken a few days ago. I had already arrived at Xinzhu. After I heard the news, I knew that the situation was over, so I divided my troops to the south."

Another person in the house is Handan Ji, the head of the Handan family. It was he who informed Fan Jishe of the news of Yiyi's fall.

Handan Ji was only in his forties, and he was not tall enough to be wrapped in black mink fur. With a sad face on his face, no matter when he looks at it, he has a sad face. He had just returned from the north, and now he was rubbing his fingers and ears that were red from the cold by the copper charcoal basin in the mouth of the beast. It's already early November, and the weather is getting colder by the day. Presumably the Handan soldiers outside were huddled together in the tent.

Although the Fan clan was hostile to the Zhao clan, they were very close to the Handan clan. Think of it as a subordinate of the BOC.

The Handan soldiers set out earlier than Fan Bing, and had already reached a place very close to Yiyi. After hearing the news, Handan Ji divided the 8,000 people under his command into two, half of them went to join with the Zhongxing clan, and the other half was sent by Handan. Ji led to Coyi and planned to continue south after staying for two days.

"What do you intend to go south?" Fan Ji shot a shudder and continued to ask. "Are you going to help Zhao Meng?"

Handan Ji gave him a meaningful look: "Of course, the head of the family has a call, the guards are now in Tanyuan, and the head of the family confronts him in Chuqiu along the river. He asked the Handan soldiers to attack from the north, and the Zhao soldiers crossed the river to attack him. ... He also ordered Fan to accompany him as a military sergeant."

"Hey, Zhao Meng has a good idea." Facing the enemy's summons, Fan Jishe sneered, not intending to obey.

In ancient times, the great river branched into many tributaries in the lower reaches of the shock plain during the process of injecting eastward into the sea.

In the Yu Dynasty, there were nine branches in the lower reaches of the great river, just as the "Yu Gong" said "the nine rivers are the road", they are Tuhai, Taishi, Majia, Furong, Husu, Jian, Jie, Goupan, and Gejin Nine.

At the time of Yin, Zhou, Spring and Autumn, with the sudden cold and warm climate, the nine rivers either dried up, changed their course, or disappeared into the sea, leaving only one east and one west. They are separated in the lower reaches of Jijin, and the long and narrow area in the middle is called the river land. The northern, central and southern parts of Hejiandi were controlled by Qi, Jin and Wei, respectively.

The southernmost point of the Jin Hejian is the Keyi of the Fan family, and fifty or sixty miles to the south is the Tanyuan of the Wei State, which is the seat of the alliance of the later Song-Liao Tanyuan.

If the six ministers of Jin are still monolithic, Zhao Yang's action is naturally a wonderful strategic detour. If he can surround and wipe out the guards whose combat effectiveness is worrying, although he has lost Yiyi this time, he will be able to bite a piece of meat from Weiguo. Down, losses and gains can be offset.

But since Fan Yang's time, the Fan and Zhao families have been on the same page, wanting Fan Jishe to help? It's just a fool's dream!

Not only that, Fan Jishe wanted to give Zhao Yang a dick, and urged Handan Ji not to go south!

...

Handan Ji was still a little afraid of Zhao Yang, he said hesitantly: "Not to mention that Zhao Meng is a military officer in the middle, he was appointed as a marshal by the monarch and the government, and now he holds the highest rank among the three front-line officials. It is said that the Zhao family is the chief , Handan is a small sect, if the order of the head of the family is not respected, I am afraid that Zhao Meng will get angry again after returning and punish my clan."

Fan Ji's tongue was eloquent: "That's wrong, Zhao Gongmeng had two sons in those days, one was the ancestor of Handan, and the other was the son of Zhao Chengzi. The ancestor of Handan was originally the direct son of the clan, and his status was honorable, so he should inherit the family business, but because Chengzi followed Duke Wen of Jin Exile and meritorious deeds made it possible to become a large sect. It can be seen that the large sect and the small sect are not absolute. Moreover, more than a hundred years have passed, and the Handan clan has also gone out of the five-servant sequence. It should be independent of Handan and directly belong to the monarch. How did Zhao Meng call you to Wenxian and reprimanded in front of the incompetent Zhao Luo when he had a break with Ruzi Awu last year? "

After successfully arousing the memory of dissatisfaction with the Zhao clan in Handan Ji's heart. He took the opportunity and said, "If this time you and I send envoys to negotiate with Qi and Wei to attack the Zhao family together..."

Before he could finish his words, Handan Ji panicked, jumped up from his seat, lowered his voice and said: "Xiajun Zuoxiu is lying! The law of Jin, the first culprit will die! Not to mention that this can be done. Whether or not, if the domestic Zhi, Wei, and Han Sanqing knew about it, how would they let us go!"

In half a sentence, Fan Jishe found out the bottom line of Handan Ji. He was dissatisfied with Zhao Yang, but he didn't dare to resist openly. He was not willing to obey Zhao Yang's orders, but had to do them.

The reason is that the strength of the Zhao clan still surpasses that of Handan. Especially in the past few years, under the tossing of the Zhao clan's lowly and unsympathetic sons, the short-board economy of the Zhao clan is even more prosperous, and it has the intention of moving the capital to Jinyang. Leaping by fish. The sky is so high that the birds can fly, and the Fan family is even more helpless to the Zhao family. And Zhao Yang is extremely strong, so strong that Handan Ji is like a mouse seeing a cat, and he will continue to develop in this way. Only after Zhao Yang's death could Handan betray.

But Zhao Yang was prosperous and strong, if there was no accident. At least one or twenty years of life, how can Fan Jishe wait?

So he waved his hand and said, "Doctor Handan has misunderstood. I don't mean that you and I are personally involved, but to watch the fire on the east bank from the west bank..."

Handan Ji asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Fan Jishe waved and asked his cronies to bring a map and spread it out. Immediately waved away everyone, and let the guards stay far away, and no one was allowed to enter.

What he is going to say next is extremely confidential and must not be leaked!

Fan Jishe pointed to the map and said to Handan Ji: "Didn't you say that the Qi people have already sent a striker to the south after the removal of Yiyi? From my point of view, there are no more than three goals, one of which is my Fan's Wulu. , Dunqiu two towns, after the capture of this place, Jin state has no city or town east of Dahe that can threaten Qi and Wei, and contact Lu state. The second is to go to Puyang and Chuqiu, so as to force Zhao Meng and us to retreat. , to solve the embarrassing situation of Marquis Wei. The third is the land of Xilu and Punan. Marquis of Qi will definitely try to take back Linqiu, which was conquered by Zhao Meng last year!"

Seeing that Fan Jishe's analysis was straightforward, Handan Ji nodded in agreement.

"The Qi people can attack in three places, but if you and I cross the big river, stationed at Dunqiu and Wulu respectively, and see the strategy without forgetting, the weather is cold and the ground is freezing, and the siege will end, so the Qi people will inevitably end. I'll avoid these two places, that's the first step."

"At the same time, we will negotiate with the Wei army again, and let them cross the river and return to Puyang, the emperor's hill. If Wei Hou can escape, he will definitely lead his army south to recover Punan. At that time, we can reach an agreement with Qi Hou to attack Zhao Menghe. Zhao Wuxi's momentum! This is the second step."

"Even if the people of Qi let the wounded soldiers return first, they still have to keep troops to guard Yiyi to guard against the central line, and there can be 40,000 people. Adding 20,000 guards, attacking Zhao's father and son's more than 10,000 soldiers is like hitting an egg with a stone. In general, when the Zhao clan collapses and its strength is greatly damaged, you can be freed from the shackles of the big sect, and the Bank of China and I can even help you replace Zhao Meng as the minister, why not do it?"

...

The Qingqiu town north of Pushui~lightnovelpub.net~ Zhao Wuxi swept the power of Punan, and then went to another city!

Qingqiu Town is adjacent to Tao Town of Cao State to the west, Zhen Town to the northeast, and Qin Town to form a defensive slash, protecting the newly captured Punan land behind them and cutting off the passage of the guards.

At this point, the Punan strategy was successfully completed. The whole process lasted more than a month. More than 2,000 guards were killed and wounded, and more than 2,000 were captured. The casualties were no more than 700 or 800 people.

There were bursts of cheers, but there was no joy on the face of the conqueror Zhao Wuxi, because the news of the messenger sent by Zhao Yang to the west, and the news of the horse sent by Zhang Mengtan to the north, made his heart sink. go down.

"The bad news is one after another. After the Qi people conquered Yiyi, they have the ambition to go south to watch troops in Xilu and Pushui. However, the Fan and Handan armies, who were originally restraining the Wei people, actually sat and watched Wei Hou calmly cross the river. Now the Wei army has passed. After arriving at Dahe, we are ready to return to defend Puyang and Chuqiu..." (To be continued. . . )
