MTL - Farmer of Shu Han-Chapter 1207 late
Chapter 1207 is late
At the time when the situation in Taiyuan County to the north of Shangdang was turbulent, and even Feng, who was far away in Caoqiao Pass, felt a little uneasy.
Wei Yan, who had already finished his army in Gaodu City, looked at the Tianjing Pass guarding the most vital part of Taihang Xing, and couldn't help but want to move.
He wanted to test Sima Shi to see if he was a **** who only relied on Sima Yi's shadow.
Although he dissatisfied with Feng, Wei Yan still had to admit that Feng still has a way of detecting thieves.
Sima Yi was based in Luoyang and stood side by side with Xuchang. He was named Wei Chen, but in fact he had the right to stand on his own. This is already known to everyone in the Han Dynasty.
Therefore, in Wei Yan's view, one of the most important reasons why Sima Shi was able to lead an army alone and stationed at Tianjing Pass was because he was Sima Yi's son.
It is similar to Xia Houmao guarding Chang'an in the early years.
At that time, Wei Yan looked down on Xia Houmao, thinking that as long as the soldiers approached the city of Chang'an, they could be defeated with one blow.
At this time, Wei Yan, who captured Gaoducheng, was full of ambition, so he naturally wanted to try Sima Shi.
In addition, apart from the fact that Sima Division frequently sent scouts to investigate when Gaodu was broken, there has been no movement since then.
Just watched helplessly as he calmly re-prepared himself in Gaodu City.
Sima Shi's actions made Wei Yan a little bit unbearable—if Sima Master is really a dude, then wouldn't it be easy to get Tianjingguan?
Fortunately, the urgent letter from Taiyuan made Wei Yan a little worried.
Deng Zhi got the news that it was rumored that after learning that most of the Shangdang defenders had been taken away, they wanted to raise troops to make trouble.
This news came from Li Xun, a member of the Shangdang clan.
Wei Yan knew that he was hated by his colleagues, and he was not liked by scholars, so he was naturally not as well-informed as Deng Zhi and Li Xun when it came to local news.
This is also one of the most important reasons why he trusted Guo Xun.
Because Guo Xun is a member of an aristocratic family that very few people are willing to get close to him or even work for him.
This is thanks to a certain surname Feng.
So no matter how unwilling Wei Yan is to believe that there is something wrong with Shangdang, he must act cautiously and send troops to Shangdang to ask Guo Xun before making a decision.
This also caused Gaoducheng to be closed to Tianjing, and fell into a strange calm in the past few days.
It's just this kind of calm, but it's not what Wei Yan wants.
Standing on the highest point, looking to the south, although there are mountains blocking it, Wei Yan knows that the Tianjing Pass is not far from the south, waiting for him.
Just as he was getting a little impatient, he saw Wei Chang running over with a panicked expression:
"My lord, it's bad!"
I even forgot the rule of calling "junhou" or "general" in the army on weekdays.
Wei Yan, who was not in a good mood, was immediately annoyed when he heard this, and scolded: "What's so panicking?!"
Wei Chang paused, opened his mouth, and was about to speak, but subconsciously glanced at his surroundings, like an arrow piercing the mouth of a wild goose, hooking a hook on the gills of a fish.
But seeing him muttering for a long time, he was unable to speak a single word.
Seeing his appearance, Wei Yan got angry and waved his hand to make the left and right people stand back. Then he asked again:
"Quickly tell me, what happened? If you can't tell the reason, see how I deal with you!"
"My lord," Wei Chang swallowed, his face was pale at this time, "Someone from Shangdang came to report, saying that Huguan was lost..."
"What?" Wei Yan heard the words, suspected that his ears had heard something wrong, and looked at Wei Chang in disbelief, "What did you say, say it again!"
Wei Chang swallowed again, but still couldn't stop the trembling in his voice:
"The person sent back by the lord came back with a few people. He said that he had just reached the eldest son's side, and there was an army of Wei thieves coming from Huguan to the eldest son."
"And in the city of the eldest son, there are also officials who escaped from Huguan..."
Before Wei Chang finished speaking, Wei Yan shouted sharply:
"Enough! Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Whoop whoop!
Wei Yan stared at Wei Chang, panting like a cow.
The sun was scorching, but Wei Yan felt as if he was in an ice cave.
He did not let Wei Chang continue to speak, but asked roughly: "Where are they?"
"I, oh, no, I am the last general, and the last general has already had them all protected."
"Didn't let others see? Didn't let the news get out?"
"General, please rest assured, absolutely not."
"Lead the way ahead!"
Although Wei Chang has mediocre qualifications, he has fought so many battles with Wei Yan in the army, so he naturally understands the priorities.
At least in this matter, he did a good job.
Wei Chang walked quickly in front, but Wei Yan urged impatiently behind:
"Hurry up!"
Wei Chang had to start trotting.
Even so, he still felt that behind him, the steps of his own adults followed closely behind him.
Bringing Wei Yan to a tent closely guarded by soldiers, Wei Chang turned around and said:
"My lord, it's inside..."
Before the words fell, Wei Yan had already passed Wei Chang like the wind and rushed in directly.
When the people inside saw Wei Yan coming in, they immediately stood up.
Only a mournful cry was heard:
"General!"
Who was not sent out by Wei Yan?
"what happened?"
Seeing this person, Wei Yan's heart sank into an invisible abyss.
With the last glimmer of hope, he stared at the other party closely: "Come on quickly, what happened to Huguan?"
If you observe carefully, you can see that Wei Yan's fingers are trembling slightly at this time.
As much as he tried to stabilize them, it didn't work at all.
Wei Yan had to clenched his fists.
"General, Huguan has been lost. I heard that Guo Xun led thieves into the pass. When the villain first became the eldest son, many people were fleeing from Huguan."
"They all said that Wei's army of thieves had already entered Huguan. The villain hurriedly inquired about it, and most of them were spreading rumors. Guo Xun led the county soldiers to make trouble and lured the thieves into the pass..."
Before he finished speaking, Wei Yan interrupted him word by word:
"Do you know the consequences of lying about military information?"
Probably frightened by Wei Yan's expression of wanting to eat people, the messenger stuttered:
"Small man, I can't believe it, so I sent someone to go to Huguan to investigate, and the villain flew all the way back to report to the general."
"General, even if this matter is a rumor, when the villain came out from the eldest son, the city was already in chaos, and the officials were scrambling for their lives."
"Even if the matter of Huguan is not true, there must be something big happening. General, you should make preparations as soon as possible!"
Hearing these words, Wei Yan didn't stay any longer, and turned around and walked out of the camp.
"Where are those who ran away from the firstborn?"
"This way."
When Wei Yan came out of another tent again, his face was extremely gloomy, like a faint thunderstorm hidden under the cloud.
Wei Chang greeted Shangyun, and just called out: "My lord?"
Wei Yan did not answer, but directly ordered:
"Immediately send the order, the army!"
"Here!"
Wei Chang was taken aback for a moment, but when he saw Wei Yan's almost uncontrollable rage, he was shocked, turned around and ran away.
Wei Yan's right hand was pressed tightly on the hilt of the sword, and the green plate exploded.
He silently walked to the edge of the camp, drew out his sword suddenly, and slashed at the fence of the camp.
"Ah~!"
While cutting the fence, Wei Yan suddenly yelled loudly, his voice was extremely shrill, like a wounded beast.
"ah!"
"ah!"
"ah!"
He kept slashing hard, and sawdust flew!
I don't know why the coach lost his composure. None of the guards around him dared to stop him.
It wasn't until Wei Chang came back with an order and saw Wei Yan's appearance that he hurried forward:
"My lord, my lord!"
"Nowadays, everyone is different. There is no official news from Huguan. Maybe the situation is not so bad..."
Wei Yan chopped the sword into a rough log, gasped, and said through gritted teeth:
"Even if Huguan is not lost, what is Guo Xun doing? Is it true that the eldest son and Huguan are in such a mess?"
"Have you sent someone to check on the eldest son?"
"It has been dispatched."
Wei Yan nodded, closed his eyes, and stopped talking.
Wei Chang only found out at this time, but in less than half a day, the adult has always shown his tough face, and now he has a sad look.
This discovery made Wei Chang a little dumbfounded, and then a little panicked.
Even when the first emperor died, the Han Dynasty was up and down, and the wind and rain were turbulent, the adults guarded Hanzhong and faced the strong thieves in the north, and never showed a trace of weakness.
Unexpectedly, when he heard that Guo Xun might betray him at this time, his lord actually showed a deeply shocked appearance.
"My lord, what should we do next?"
"Naturally return to Junhuguan." Wei Yan opened his eyes, with deep unwillingness in his eyes, "Since the capital city has fallen, and there are differences in the rear, it is useless to stay any longer."
Wei Yan looked at Wei Chang:
"But Gaodu City must have someone I trust to stay behind."
Wei Chang opened his mouth, he wanted to go back with the adults, but facing the eyes of the adults, he still took the initiative to say:
"The child is willing to stay."
"Okay!" Wei Yan seemed to pat him on the shoulder with some relief, but his tone became lower, "Remember, if you really can't keep it, don't force it."
Wei Yan may have a low EQ, but it doesn't mean he has no IQ.
And having led soldiers for so many years, if he hadn't thought of the worst situation he might face at this time, it would really make people doubt Liu Bei's vision.
The most important thing is that the reminder from Taiyuan a few days ago seems to be becoming a reality.
By confirming the two facts, Wei Yan knew very well that there might really be a big problem in his rear.
Master Sima may not be the **** he imagined...
Wei Yan took a deep breath:
"If there is any disharmony, don't hesitate, you must immediately retreat to Xuanshi, and return to Hedong from there."
Hyun's family is exactly between the eldest son and Gaodu.
To be precise, there is a pass, not only across the passage between the eldest son and Gaodu, but also guarding the main road from Shangdang to the east of the river.
The Battle of Changping between Qin and Zhao took place in that area.
"grown ups?"
Since father and son united hearts, following Wei Yan for so long, this is the first time in his life that he saw his own adult like this, Wei Chang was really flustered.
"Do you remember what I said?"
Wei Chang nodded.
"Okay, let's go."
Hearing the sound of the horn continuously humming, Wei Yan pulled out the sword on the fence, re-sheathed it, and then walked towards the school grounds without looking back:
"Come on, thief, let me see what you are trying to do!"
…
Chang'an.
"Report—"
A passer-by with a flag on his back rushed to the gate of Zhongdu Hufu. Before the horse stopped, the knight rolled off the horse directly:
"Bingzhou urgent letter!"
Because the weather was too hot, Chuanqi ran wildly all the way again, and his whole body was already soaked, as if he was fished out of the water.
It looked extremely tired. When he got off the horse, his legs were already unstable and he fell to the ground.
Two guards guarding the gate of the mansion ran down the tall steps, and Chuanqi helped them up.
Another person went to hold the horse that was still running a long distance.
"Brine!"
Someone shouted again.
Chuan Qi was quickly helped to the shaded ear room, all the clothes on his body were untied, someone handed water to his mouth, and someone was helping to fan the wind...
Everything is in order.
Obviously, the Central Capital Protectorate has received countless urgent mails.
"Urgent..."
Chuan Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and opened his mouth to remind.
"Don't worry, everything has been sent in. After the general has read the urgent mail, he may call you for questioning, so you need to slow down as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Chuanqi closed his eyes in peace.
As the guard at the gate of the mansion said, the urgent official document sent by Bingzhou was quickly placed on the table in front of General Zhendong.
After Madam Zuo finished reading, she frowned slightly:
"Come here, go and invite Mrs. You over here!"
"Sister, did you call me?"
After a while, Mrs. You appeared at the door, and just as she stepped in, she asked.
Madam Zuo nodded, picked up the letter on the desk, and handed it over: "Look."
Madam You took it with some doubts, and soon, when she raised her head again, her face became a little ugly:
"Wei Yan transferred all Shangdang's defenders to Gaodu. Mr. Deng was worried that Taiyuan would be empty, so he asked Prince Jun to lead the army to temporarily defend?"
The stern and glamorous General Guan's face has turned ashen.
But seeing her walking to the map, staring at the map, with her back to Zhang Xiaosi, after a while, she said slowly:
"What I want to say is that now it's not about worrying about what Duke Deng and the prince are going to do."
"What we really need to worry about is what Wei Yan is doing, or whether Wei Yan's deployment of troops will cause serious problems to the Shangdang."
"Shangdang?" Zhang Xiaosi doesn't understand military affairs, but she also knows what Shangdang means.
She took two steps forward, and suddenly thought of something, her little face suddenly changed color: "Guo Xun?"
General Guan turned around and nodded.
Before going to Wuguan, Alang sent someone to investigate the soldier who suddenly appeared beside Wei Yan.
At that time, the relationship between the Central Capital Protectorate and the palace was in a sensitive period.
So you can't use official means to ask questions openly, so as not to provoke Wei Yan and make people misunderstand.
He could only send Han Long there to see if he could use Ranger to investigate something.
Facts have proved that Guo Xun has indeed concealed some things.
Because of what he said to the outside world, the timeline does not match the news that You Xiaer heard.
If it's changed to normal, as long as it doesn't hinder the big things, there is no need to be too harsh.
At most, it is to record it secretly first, and then investigate slowly later. After all, You Xiaer only heard some news, and there is no real evidence.
And in troubled times, who doesn't have some secrets that are not known to outsiders.
But neither General Guan nor Zhang Xiaosi are fools.
Not only are they not fools, but they also have information that Deng Zhi does not know.
So it is easier for them to make further inferences than Deng Zhi:
What is happening now is a bit too coincidental, and the suspicion on Guo Xun has greatly increased at once.
General Guan’s eyes fell back on the map, staring at the position of Huguan, and murmured:
"I hope all of this is really just a coincidence..."
Zhang Xiaosi couldn't bear it anymore: "I want to go to the palace!"
"Enter the palace?"
General Guan lowered his eyes, and his tone was cold with a slight sigh:
"Speaking to the palace is probably the best way at the moment. Wei Wenchang will definitely not listen to Zhongdu Hufu, but the palace can remind him."
