Royal Road

Chapter 165:

"In Yangyi city, more than a hundred houses were burned down, and there were more than a thousand soldiers who had been sent to the city. Most of them were Jin troops who had thrown into the city." After only two days, Yi Yan led his troops back and brought back the captured soldiers. Ge Hong and a thousand soldiers stationed in Yangyi city.

"Are there any generals in the army?" Liang Feng frowned. He had also heard Linghu Kuang talk about it before that it was a few generals from the noble family who surrendered. If these two-faced guys were left behind, they would probably cause trouble.

"Before the siege of the city, there was a rebellion in Yangyi, and those people were killed by the Huns." This is the most official statement, but in fact, it is the decision made by Ge Hong and him. Soldiers can stay, but the generals who surrender will be unreliable. In case you encounter an enemy again and go to Xiancheng again, you really can't help it.

When Liang Feng heard this, he knew that it was the inside story, and he couldn't help but relax: "That's good. It's just a city in Yangyi, which is not easy to guard now. Is there enough grain and grass in the city?"

Yangyi is now in an enemy-occupied area. Although there is still a county under its control, if you want to cultivate under the eyes of the enemy, I am afraid that there is no hope, and you can only live on supplies. To truly restore county governance, you have to wait for the Xiongnu to retreat.

"The grain and grass have been burnt in the war, but it's still enough." Yi Yan replied.

"That's good." Liang Feng only thought, and said to Duan Qin next to him, "Return to send General Linghu to Jinyang to report a letter. We must open the channel as soon as possible and get in touch with Jinyang."

This is a top priority. Even if Sima Teng left Bingzhou, the prefecture’s administrative office and camp would still be in Jinyang. Only by getting through the news network as soon as possible and getting in touch with the defenders in the city, will it be convenient to proceed later. This task, given to Linghu's status as a powerful state, couldn't be more appropriate.

Duan Qin had a clear mind and nodded immediately: "The lord can rest assured, now that he is stationed in Jinyang is General Linghu's subordinate uncle. But then, the news of victory will also be reported to Dongying."

You can't hide this kind of big event. Liang Feng said: "Why don't you tell the court of such a big victory? It's just that the war in Chang'an is fierce, and Dongying may not return to merge with the state."

Only one battle has been won, and there may be a situation in which he will face. Even if Sima Teng grew courage, he might not come back. But it won't be in a war. How many times will it be won? Once Binzhou settles down, I am afraid that someone will come to pick the peaches immediately.

This is simply a difficult question for the former wolf and the tiger. Liu Yuan is naturally an enemy, and Sima may not be a friend. Coupled with such a strange case of solar eclipse, his life may be even more difficult.

But after doing everything, Liang Feng won't be entangled now. The more important question is, has this battle achieved the expected goal?

"In addition to the first wave of reinforcements, can the Xiongnu also send soldiers?" Liang Feng asked.

"Unexpectedly!" Yi Yan replied simply, "Only a few teams of outposts came. Even the army that had approached before had retreated ten miles, so there should be no more siege."

There is another solar eclipse and another thunderstorm, enough to scare any sane person away. This is the result Liang Feng wants!

"That's very good! Spring is about to begin, and the ten counties are instructed to whip the spring and start farming! Also this year, there is too little rain. We must pay attention to drought prevention and start the killing of locusts as soon as possible." Time, we must collect a few more grains this year!

"Spring plowing is not a problem, but now the party's military system should also be changed." Duan Qin is worried about not just farming.

Today the composition of the Shangdang soldiers is too complicated. The army of the Liang family was imported into the army and the imperial court in large numbers. This brought not only an increase in combat power, but also institutional chaos. The Liangfuzheng soldiers enjoyed the tax-free military land system, and the imperial generals were paid. How to balance the relationship between the two is a problem.

And with the continuous increase in military strength, the number of troops has also changed. Since the Three Kingdoms, the ranks of generals have been overwhelming. By the Jin Dynasty, the army was full of only 1,500 people. Now that it has been expanded several times, the battalion weaving set by the Liang Mansion has been restored to the number of thousands of staff in the Eastern Han Dynasty. If it is expanded, it must become an army.

"Reorganize during the spring plowing, and the system of military exemption from military service will be implemented. As for those court soldiers under Yiyan, they also want to incorporate their ideas into the system." Liang Feng pondered for a moment, and finally said.

If you stop fighting, you can just reform the military system. In the future, there will only be more and more people under his hand, and he can no longer pay attention to it. But speaking of it, I had closed the township before, but now I have another victory, I'm afraid I will be promoted to the county. It won't be a problem to expand the number of private soldiers under him by 10%. Even if Sima Teng doesn't want to do things about face, he still has to behave. Otherwise, if others are not in Binzhou, how can we use people to fight?

"The lower official knows." Duan Qin said.

With a flick of his fingertips on the table, Liang Feng got up: "Go and do it, you must grasp the time for recuperation in the past few months!"

I only hope that those guys with the surname Sima can fight more aggressively, and can't spare time to add chaos to him.

"The Shangdang triumphed, and hid back to Yangyi?" Seeing the Di Bao, Sima Teng couldn't believe his eyes.

When he escaped from Bingzhou, it was not that it was terrible that he did not see the Huns. How could Liang Zixi win two games in just six months? !

Now that all the papers for asking for credit have been put on the desk, how can we not reward such a victory? But how can he be willing to reward him! After carefully reading the good news twice, Sima Teng's complexion became darker. How can it be a good omen to raise troops at Zhengdan and catch up with the solar eclipse?

Seeing that Sima Teng's face was wrong, the master book hurriedly said: "General, this is a big victory, not rewarding is not enough to calm the army!"

This is the most annoying thing. Sima Teng snorted coldly: "Of course I want a reward! Promoted to the ranks, allocate money and food! Let Prefect Liang defend the Shangdang!"

The implied meaning in these words, the master book of Gao heard clearly. It was clear that Liang Zixi was to be turned on the defensive, and he was not allowed to participate in the battle against the Huns at will. It's not impossible to prevent a capable minister from making merits in this way. But the timing always seemed a bit wrong.

Gao Zhubu hesitated for a moment, and finally did not speak, but said: "The upper party is a widow, and you should stick to it. When the chaos in Chang'an is eliminated, Dongying can return to the state and preside over the overall situation."

This is what Sima Teng likes most. He looked a little better, and he said: "The King of Hejian sent Zhang Fang's head a few days ago and wanted to ask for peace, but Brother turned it away. Chang'an won't be able to guard for long."

This has also developed, and it has a close relationship with him. Although he fled Bingzhou in a hurry, Sima Teng came with soldiers, and this team immediately restored the strength of the East Sea King camp, which had been disintegrated. After that, all parties fought and provoked. After several months of fighting, the men of the Hejian King line began to show a tendency to collapse.

There were originally a hundred thousand Guanzhong army, but the king of Hejian was greedy for life and feared death, and missed the best chance to meet him, leaving Zhang Fang to stand firm. This time gave the King of East China Sea a great opportunity. In addition, Wang Jun sent thousands of Xianbei cavalry to help out.

All the reasons were just Zhang Fang's own proposition and ushered the emperor into Chang'an. Zhang Fang himself was ferocious and brutal, and now his power has soared and he is not under control at all. In addition, the solar eclipse that occurred during the Zhengdan period made the King of Hejian extremely frightened. So he did nothing, he appointed Zhifu, Zhang Fang's benefactor, to the camp of Zhang Fang and took the head of this fierce god.

Presenting this head with a brocade box, he begged the East Sea King for peace. Unexpectedly, the other party had no intention of accepting it at all, but instead urged the troops to march towards Guanzhong. In this way, the king of Hejian was in danger if he lost the general and did not exchange for forgiveness.

For Sima Teng, this is certainly excellent news. For his contribution in this war, the king should be no more to blame. As long as you fight in the final attack on Chang'an, you may not be able to get a head start. When the time comes, the elder brother welcomes the emperor back, and he will have spare capacity to deal with the tiger-wolf-like Huns in Bingzhou.

Thinking of this, Sima Teng said: "Since I have regained Yangyi, order the Sima Yu, Zhou Liang, Shi Xian and other ministries stationed in Jinyang to attack Lishi! As long as Lishi can be defeated, Mr. Liu Yuan will not be able to make trouble. There is also the Shangdang, which should provide food for the army!"

This order is extremely negative. Liang Zixi was not allowed to contact the military exploits, but also to make him responsible for the army's back. It's not a good job. But Master Gao knew that this was the result of Sima Teng's endurance and endurance. Who made Liang Zixisheng so easy? Isn't it the face of Dongying who had abandoned the state and fled?

But think about it, the war in Chang'an should not last long. Even so, there is nothing wrong with it. When the King of East China Sea regains the emperor, as the younger brother of Dongying, his status will also rise. Withdrawing from Bingzhou this time, it really complied with providence. As for the two victories of the Shangdang, in the final analysis, it was Dongying who appointed people on their merits, which is not a bad thing. Wouldn't it be the best thing to do this by going back and forth?

Not daring to neglect, Master Gao picked up his pen and quickly started writing the documents. This order surpassed the tens of thousands of troops under the king of the East China Sea and headed towards the Shangdang.
