Chapter 273

"The expulsion of Wang Mang and Cheng made great contributions."

The fifth reunion changed and became stern: "But merit is merit, and fault is fault!"

It was okay if Dou Rong didn't say that, but this mention of the fifth reunion had to be punished immediately: With the great defeat of Kunyang, there were probably many new defeated generals who came to the west to surrender one after another. Who made their hometown in Guanzhong?

If this matter spreads, Dou Rong, who was intimate with the Fifth Relationship, surrenders, but is attacked by the Fifth Relationships, and he is almost inactive. It is like a horse that has a thousand miles to throw, but you kills the horse meat sausages, and the Fifth Relationships will be killed. Not only will it be the surrendered soldiers, but it will be greatly hindered from recruiting talents.

What's more, he is about to reorganize the Yueqi Camp. Isn't this a great excuse?

The fifth reunification immediately ordered: "I ordered the Yueqi camp to cross the dragon head channel to attack the enemy's flanks. Cheng Chong got the order but failed to obey, causing Tian Kuang to flee to Lin Jin. This is a mistake; Cheng Chong was improper in command and almost accidentally injured Duke Zhou. These two mistakes were punished together. The position of the school lieutenant was removed and he was dismissed as a lieutenant. Yueqi camp was temporarily managed by the army's commander, Jing Sunqing, the imperial court."

In fact, Cheng Chong was wronged. He was indeed determined to make contributions, but his subordinates were all arrogant and cowardly and did not obey the commands. In an impatient manner, Cheng Chong made a mistake.

But the war has not yet ended, and the fifth reunion can only punish the generals, not soldiers, otherwise they may come to a mutiny. The Yueqi Camp first handed over to Jing Dan, who was gentle on the surface but had a strategy, and after the battle was finished, they would be separated and then handed over to the evil people to reorganize.

Now is an extraordinary period, and there is no need to strictly separate civil and military affairs. What the fifth relationship requires is talents who can promote writing and govern the people and military affairs can transcend horses.

When it comes to Dou Rong, the fifth reunion is more cautious. After all, Duke Dou Zhou was also a marquis in the new dynasty, and he was also a "General Boshui", which was no lower than his "General Ping Chi". He has always been as famous as himself. If he gave him a high position, he would be a newcomer and the soldiers who had made contributions would not accept it. If he was low, he would feel aggrieved.

Therefore, although Dou Rong said: "I wish to be a small soldier under the general."

But the fifth reunion was still not in a hurry to take him into his pocket, but instead respected him as a guest and talked about Dou Rongkang's rituals in the future.

The two of them have not seen each other for many years. Now the fifth reunion has asked someone to bathe Dou Rong and change clothes, prepare food, wine and wash him. During the meal, they also inquire about the situation of the war in the south, especially the Battle of Kunyang, how it was fought!

When Dou Rong heard the word Kunyang, he felt anxious for no reason and said, "I wonder who is the one who is good at star art around the general? On the first day of June, in the south of Kunyang City, a meteor fell in at night. Although it did not hurt people, it still made the two armies uneasy."

There are really meteorites!

Wu Lun stopped and focused, and only heard Dou Rong talk about the situation that day.

When he heard Dou Rong say that Liu Xiu led a mere three thousand reinforcements to attack Wangyi's army a hundred times more, beheaded hundreds of thousands of levels, and won the victory in a row, and became more courageous. When he was a hundred o'clock, he even defeated the new army and rushed for more than a hundred miles, even the fifth reunion was filled with blood and couldn't help but secretly praise him in his heart:

"A real hero!"

Although he didn't know how far from the original history, Liu Xiu did win a great battle in Kunyang that was enough to shake the world, and laid the foundation for the destruction of the new dynasty with the fifth relationship.

In this way, Liu Xiu's status in the green forest may rise sharply. The fifth reunion remembered the letter he asked Yin Lihua to write, and his plan to earn Liu Xiu's "reunion" was probably going to fail, and instead made a joke.

It seems that he has no chance after all, so he faces Liu Xiu with childhood sweethearts and says: "The only heroes in the world are Uncle Wen and Lun'er!"

But Dou Rong, this honest man flattered the fifth reunion: "I think the reason why Uncle Liu Wen won by chance was because he lost the help of the general."

The fifth reunion was happy: "Oh? I was in Chang'an at that time, how could I help him?"

Dou Rong smiled and said, "This general was the first to promote the righteousness in the name of killing violence. Wang Mang sent an envoy to summon Wang Yi to return later. If Wang Yi had not been in a turmoil and had sent troops to return north, Green Forest could not take advantage of the chaos, how could he win?"

Cultural people speak nicely, Dou Rong only said: "Zheng Shang searched for Li, Dongyi rebelled and sent Feilian to attack. If Dongyi defeated Feilian and King Wu defeated Yin first, and destroyed the Shang Dynasty, it would be King Wu, not Dongyi."

So, I plan to destroy Xinmang? I command the Kunyang battle? The fifth reunion passed by.

Since Kunyang and Luyang's new army were defeated and retreated, and Green Forest was no match for Jingyu and the two prefectures were no match for them, they might have to sweep the counties and make an appointment. In this way, Wancheng, which had been held for half a year, became a Jedi!

This is also something that the fifth reunion often cares about when he is busy. Yan You and Cen Peng are trapped in Wancheng, what's going on now?

He can't save Wancheng. His only hope is that he has a master and apprenticeship with him. He has also become his own matchmaker. He can be safe. It is best to bow his head slightly and surrender to the green forest with Cen Peng, leaving a useful body. Born in such an era, as long as he can live, it will not be shabby...

But I can only think about it. Kong Ren and others occupied Wu Pass, and they couldn't even send an envoy to the fifth reunion. They could only move their minds from a distance back to the nearest place, giving Dou Rong the first job after surrendering.

"I would like to ask Duke Zhou to write a letter and shoot it into the city, saying that he would persuade Tian Kuan to surrender because of the defeat of the new army Kunyang!"

...

Tian Kuang's face was premature white in his eyebrows, but his hair was black in his beard, but as he lined up outside the city to fight the Fifth Reunion to the death, he had more white threads on his hair in just one night, and he couldn't sleep all night last night.

Faced with his proposal to defend Lin Jin to the death and send someone to break through the siege and seek help from the Grand Situ King, Tian Kuang shook his head: "Wang Xun's old man will not come to save him."

Since Wang Xun crossed the river from Fengling ten days ago, he has commanded a large army of 70,000 quickly controlled the main cities in Hedong and burned down two floating bridges, Fenglingdu and Puban Pass. This is to take Hedong as a foothold and act as a stance to guard the tomb!

"He sat on the other side to see success or failure. Maybe he would send an envoy to negotiate with the fifth reunion, and he would come to the east and west, and to draw the river and manage it!"

This morning, Dou Rong's letter of persuasion was shot into the city, saying that Wang Yi had been wiped out and retreated to Luoyang alone, and he could not protect himself. The last hope of the Xin Dynasty's recovery of Guanzhong was gone. Tian Kuang's subordinates were all bitter. In the end, this Daxin, Tian Kuang was just a loyal minister? Since that's the case, it would be better...

"surrender?"

These two words have never been in Tian Kuan's choice.

"I was defeated by the fifth emperor and became famous in a state, but my situation was very different. He was a latecomer, so he was quite dissatisfied."

"Two months ago, the fifth reunion crossed the river from Puban. I had a good relationship with Chen Chong. I asked someone to carefully count the number of people and get along with him."

"And the emperor summoned him, and Lun rebelled, and I obeyed him, and he would always rebel against Lun."

Tian Kuang was not as loyal as Ju Wuba to Wang Mang, nor was he as helpless as Yan You felt that he was responsible and could not turn around. His insistence on holding the new flag was more of a stubbornness and political naivety.

"At the first time, I was ashamed of being the new minister. If I surrendered, wouldn't I want to make myself feel frustrated? Instead of being humiliated, it would be better to die and die. Use my loyalty to the new chamber to let future generations remember the rebellion of the fifth relationship!"

Tian Kuang's paranoia was not defeated in a single battle. When he was preparing to commit suicide, he was still full of complaints.

"I have today, not a crime of war."

This is the difference between Yan You and Tian’s situation. Yan You regards war as a whole, Tao, heaven, earth, general, and law. If you lose, it must be because something goes wrong in some aspect.

Tian Kuang only focused on the "general". He claimed to be wise, trustworthy, benevolent, brave, and strict, and everything was better than the fifth lord.

"The fifth man Yu said two months ago, 'The one who is good at drinking has no great words. How can I use my troops? In less than a few months, I will know when I visit Tanghou.' I saw yesterday. The fifth man is just a mediocre general."

But since he is a mediocre general, why did he lose?

It was because of bad luck, and it was because of the betrayal of the Great Situ Wang Xun. There were many reasons, but it was not on him anyway.

But no matter how unwilling you, you have to bear the fate of the loser.

Since the Han Dynasty, from princes to ministers and generals, there have been frequent suicides, such as self-suffering, drinking medicine, hanging herself, urinating herself, drowning herself, hunger strike, **, holding her breath, etc. Tian Kuan chose to be self-suffering.

"Put my head to the fifth reunion, and ask him to let go of the soldiers who fought with me, and let them get rid of their armor and return to the field."

The clothes are untied, and the sharp blade is pressed into the heart. With one force, his life can end!

Tian Kuang took a deep breath: "Tell him for me again that after Tian Kuang died, he would go to Huangquan to recruit Qingzhou. The old troops of the division commander were waiting below! When the fifth rein was defeated and died one day, they would gather in Huangquan. We would arrange the same troops and fight for a fight. Tian Kuang would never lose to him!"

...

After hearing Tian Kuan's death, the fifth reunion felt that this might be the best ending for this person. After all, it is difficult to subdue the guy who is naturally incompatible with him, and it is even more difficult to use with confidence.

Tian Kuang's subordinates had no heart to cut off his head, cleaned the body, put on a piece of armor and lifted it out. If it weren't for being so angry, the white eyebrows frowned and looked like they still looked alive.

There were more than fifty people in the city who committed suicide according to the land tent. In addition, the dead soldiers who were willing to squat in the well canal of Shangyan Mountain for several days showed that this person led the county and led the troops, which was very popular.

The reason why he was defeated was that he was not only standing on the wrong side of the times and being dragged down by the destruction of the new dynasty, but also being despised by the descent of his relatives and morale, just like Dou Rong, he also met his teammates of Zhu.

However, in various unfavorable situations, Tian Kuang still brought the first defeat to Di Wulun, which delayed him for at least half a month, forcing Di Wulun to concentrate most of his troops in Hexi, and even let Wang Xun enter Hedong first, allowing Di Wulun to quickly open up the plan to contact Weijun, which was postponed.

Although Ueda Kuang lost in the battle, he did cause great trouble to the fifth reunion in strategy. At least in this corner of Hexi, it is indeed no problem to say that the two are "approaches".

Looking further, if Tian Kuang was left in Qingzhou by Wang Mang, he might have been a prince in the future, so he could develop and be called a powerful enemy.

But the fifth reunion only smiled at Tian Kuan's unwilling last words.

"Fight again under the underworld? Then the Investiture Tang Hou has to wait."

"I inherited it from my eldest father and I am destined to live a long life!"

At this time, even the local tyrant Li Bai who reported to him asked Jing Dan to plead with the fifth reunion, hoping to properly bury Tian Kuan.

"Although I don't know the current affairs, I'm a great minister."

After looking at the fifth rein, Li Bai guessed what he wanted to say and added: "But it hasn't been better yet. Can the Hexi surnames accompany him to bury the new room with him!"

That's right, the first priority of the powerful is to let the family survive. Any "betrayal" has a legitimate reason.

Now, it was the turn of the fifth reunion to sit in Tian Kuang's seat. Tian Kuang raised the wrong flag. In the eyes of outsiders, his fifth reunion is not new or Han, and he is also dancing on the tip of a knife!

With Lin Jin surrendering, it was only a matter of time before the entire Shiwei County was captured. Now the situation in Guanzhong is turbulent, and the ability to obtain the attack has reached its limit. Next, it depends on the plan for attacking and attacking.

"How did Feng Yan's errand work in Longyou?"

...

Longshang, the road is lingering and circling upwards, and it is not easy to cross. This is the case with the news, and so is the same for people.

In mid-June, the Fifth Lun had just won the victory in the Shiwei, but Feng Yan followed Liu Gong to the base camp of the Longyou forces: Chengji County, Tianshui County.

The scenery in front of me is very different from that in Longdong: high on the ridge are low and vigorous birch forests, and vast grasslands, like green waves covering the entire Longshan Mountains. Simple-clad horse-dressing wranglers drive away a large group of agile horses. I don’t know whether it is Qiang or Hu. Unless they are close to the dam and the city, they are mostly semi-cultivated and semi-grassing. When they meet pedestrians on the road, they are mostly riding horses, shouldering bows and swords. It turns out that the people are strong. No wonder the two hundred years of the Han Dynasty, most elite soldiers and generals come from six counties.

The largest surname in Chengji County was originally the Li Guang family, but since Li Ling surrendered to the Xiongnu and the Li family surrendered to Liang, within a hundred years, the Wei family emerged and became a hero. Liu Ying was also taken to the Wei family's manor to settle.

But Feng Yan found that the manors of these Longyou nobles were not as extravagant as the Guanzhong surname, but were rather simple. They were interested in hunting for bows and horses.

It was also here that Feng Yan began the most difficult lobbying in his life.

It was just because he met that man, Wei Xiang's military advisor led Fang Wang from Liu Ying to the west!

The weather in Longyou in June was even hotter than Chang'an. Feng Yan was not resistant to heat and was sweating all over his head. He was shaking the air-noodle fan with his mentality, and his movements were very fast. Fang Wang shook the palm-leaf fan, and his movements were slow.

The two of them had never met before. After meeting, they reported their last name. When they looked at each other, they subconsciously felt that the other party was the same person as themselves: a magnanimous person!

For a moment, I felt like a dog head was against a dog head, and it was really a match for the opponent!

Fang Wang had indeed advocated establishing Liu Ying to unite the forces in Longyou and allow them to have an influence beyond a corner, but he did not support him to be emperor immediately.

What's more, he was skeptical of the fake news that "Wang Yi defeated Green Forest in Kunyang and Gengshi was destroyed."

The countermeasures proposed by Fang Wang in Wei Xiang's ears were just one word: "Drag!"

"In my opinion, the prince does not need to rush to become emperor."

Fang Wang shook the palm-leaf fan, paid attention to Feng Yan's expression, and smiled:

"It's better to be king first!"
