Guyuan County is the core of the ancient Anding County. It has been an important place in Guanzhong since ancient times. It is separated from the Han and Hu barbarians. Even when the world is in chaos, it is rarely occupied by the barbarians. Without it, the terrain is too dangerous. target
On the other hand, if you want to stay firmly in Guanzhong, there are two places that military strategists must fight for, one is Hanzhong and the other is Yuanzhou. If Li Shan had not captured half of Yuanzhou, Li Yuan in Chang'an City would be unable to sit still. .
At the top of the city, Liang Luoren, who was very energetic nearly half a year ago and was also very energetic a few months ago, looked to the east side with a gloomy face. The mountains blocked his view, but Liang Luoren seemed to be able to see the dark clouds in the sky that were about to rain.
Last time it was the King of Handan, this time it is the King of Handan again!
Liang Luoren secretly gritted his teeth. If it hadn't been for Li Huairen last time, he would have captured Tiantai Mountain, killed the King of Qin, and captured the Emperor of Tang. He would have been able to escape unscathed, and he would have invited the Turks to invade and defeat the Tang army... It is very likely that the situation in the world would have been greatly affected by this. Change.
If it hadn't been for Li Huairen this time, the Turks would have been able to invade the hinterland of Jingzhou, go south to Jingzhao, drink the Mawei River, and go west to take a detour and cross the river to threaten Longzhou, allowing the Liang army to break through Longshan Pass, Zhisheng Pass and other pass... It is also very possible to overthrow Li Tang, who had only founded the country less than ten years ago.
Not only these two times, he fought a fierce battle on Tiantai Mountain half a year ago. If Li Huairen hadn't gone north in time, General He Sui, who had already conquered Huating, would have quickly passed through Longzhou with thousands of Jihu cavalry, rushed to Qizhou, and jointly attacked Tiantai Mountain, saying Maybe they can still break through Chang'an.
Everything was ruined in that guy's hands! target
Despite the great reputation, there is no real person in vain!
As expected of a man who was feared by the three Turkic Khans before and after him, Liang Luoren sighed softly, heard the sound of footsteps, glanced sideways, took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it over.
This was a middle-aged man in his fifties, but his temples were dyed white and his face looked rather haggard. He took the letter and looked at it for a few times, then smiled bitterly and shook his head, "My son is filial, but he doesn't understand the situation."
"How can Guang Pu see the light?" Lu Jilan said softly.
This middle-aged man is the current Wei Huangfuli of Guyuan County. He has a simple character. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Nowadays, it is similar to the north and the south."
Lu Jilan smiled and nodded, looking at Liang Luoren, "That's true."
Huangfu Li carefully withdrew his gaze, trying not to let the resentment in his eyes leak out. How could he not hate that it was Lu Jilan, whom he had known in the early years, who recommended him to Liang Shidu, and that he had to serve as Guyuan County Lieutenant? As for the current situation. target
Lu Jilan kept saying that now that His Majesty has swept through the three states, and more than 100,000 Turkic cavalry have come to help, he will be able to defeat the Tang army. When he takes control of Chang'an one day, the Huangfu family will surely become a prominent family in the world... As it turns out, it has only been half a month. , the Turkic army was so defeated that they even lost their pants and fled back to the grassland rolling and crawling.
Lu Jilan understood this sentence, but Liang Luoren did not. The former explained a few words in a low voice.
Since the Five Hu Dynasties invaded China and their clothes moved south, the north and the south have been separated for hundreds of years. Many families have descendants on both sides, and they all serve as officials in the north and the south. This is the natural choice of the aristocratic families, and it is also unique to them. that power.
For example, when the Pei clan in the world came out to hear the news, Pei Ji and Pei Shiju, the West Household House, the East Household Household, and the Horse Washing House, all had prominent officials in the Northern Wei, Northern Qi, Northern Zhou, and Sui Dynasties, but they served in the Southern Qi and Nanliang in the south. , Nanchen and many others.
Pei Yun is a typical example. He was born in the middle family of the Wenxi Pei family. Although he later served as an official in the Sui Dynasty and was finally buried with Emperor Sui Yang in Jiangdu, he had previously served in the Chen Kingdom and served as General Zhige and Xingning Ling. His father Pei Ji In Nan Chenjue, he was granted the title of Marquis of Le'an County, and his grandfather and great-grandfather were also very prominent in Nanliang.
Huangfuli's meaning is very obvious. Looking at the situation in the world, only Master Liang can compete with Li Tang now... This is really flattering Master Liang.
But if Liang Shidu can really maintain it, then the Huangfu family in Yuanzhou, which is located between Li Tang and Liang, will probably follow the example of the Pei family and choose to serve two dynasties for the sake of the family to ensure that the family lintel does not fall. target
Liang Luoren can accept this reason. From this perspective, it makes sense that Huangfuli does not want to be replaced.
"I heard that Li Huairen is only twenty years old?" Liang Luoren once again focused on the battle in front of him. Although he had fought against Li Shan several times,
But never met.
"Indeed, I heard that he was crowned in February this year." Lu Jilan said with a wry smile: "His ancestral home is Longxi Chengji, and he grew up in Lingnan. His complexion is quite dark, but what I saw that day was that he had an outstanding demeanor and a commanding bearing. He is truly an outstanding person."
After a pause, Lu Jilan turned to look at Huangfuli, "Remember that Guangpu and Handan had a relationship?"
"Yes." Huangfu Li lowered his head slightly and replied, "I met him once in Huating County. The Emperor of Tang once recommended him as the best in the world."
"Such a person is indeed a strong opponent." Liang Luoren nodded, "It is said that the King of Handan is very lucky... He defeated Yugushe first, then Jieli Khan, and Tuli Khan and Dubu Khan three times. Isn't it just luck? It can be done!"
Lu Jilan pondered for a moment and then said: "In the battle of Jingzhou, it seemed that the Tang army attacked with elite troops, but in fact it was Handan's trick. Looking at his style, he led the army several times. Although he had the courage to charge into the formation, more often than not, Win by trickery." Target
"Not bad!" Liang Luoren patted the city wall hard. "He Sui was defeated and captured. In the battle of Tiantai Mountain, the King of Handan did not want to get entangled. After a side attack, he personally led his elite troops to sneak into the mountain."
"Let's see how Li Huairen uses his tactics this time!"
Lu Jilan squinted his eyes and suddenly turned his head to look at Huang Fuli, and said with a smile: "The army is stationed, the city is strong and well-supplied, and the terrain is advantageous. If the King of Handan wants to use his strategy, it is nothing more than cooperating with the inside and the outside."
Huangfu Li's expression remained unchanged, but his heart trembled slightly. The Turks were defeated and the morale of the Liang army in the city was low. However, as long as there was no shortage of food, they were not at the end of their rope and had to find another way out. Lu Jilan's words were directly aimed at Myself.
"King Xia, Shangshu Lu..."
"Guang Pu misunderstood." Lu Jilan interrupted with a smile, "If you can't believe it, why mention it in front of Guang Pu?"
Can you trust me? target
Huangfuli complained in his heart, I can’t even trust myself.
Liang Luoren turned around, glanced at Huang Fuli, and brought the topic back, "How to respond?"
"Li Shenfu is fine, your Majesty may not be willing to release Duan Decao." Lu Jilan shook his head, "I'd better ask your Majesty to make a decision."
Although Li Shenfu is from the Tang clan, he is just a waste. Speaking of Master Liang, he can occupy the three states. Li Shenfu still has some merits, so it doesn't matter if he is released.
But Duan Decao was different. This man had been the general manager of Yanzhou for many years. He had to go to war with the Liang army almost every year. He might suffer a small defeat, but a victory would be a great victory. The Liang army had suffered a lot. How could he let it go so casually?
"As for Guangpu..."
Huangfu Li bowed and said, "I take the liberty of inviting you, my eldest daughter-in-law and my second grandson..."
Lu Jilan smiled and said, "Guangpu has made up his mind to separate the two dynasties from his eldest son."
Liang Luoren thought for a moment and nodded, "That's all right, but we have to wait a little longer."
