Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 433 Entering Weixing (3000)

When Gao Cheng learned that Duguxin was the main general who went north to Hanzhong, not Yu Wentai himself, he guessed that the other party was determined to go to the muddy waters in the south of the Yangtze River.

Although Yuwentai's strength is not as good as Nanliang's, the two are obviously not equal in Gao Cheng's mind, otherwise he would not have made a strategy of first easy and then difficult, and attacked Nanliang first.

Now Yu Wentai is unwilling to stand by and watch Gao Cheng's plot succeed, and tries to get a piece of the pie, but it also falls into Gao Cheng's hands.

In any case, fighting Yu Wentai's army in the south of Jing is much easier than crossing the mountains and crossing the Shu road to the south.

Gao Cheng didn't dare to hope for Yu Wentai's luck, no matter in the original time and space or in this era, the other party can easily occupy Bashu.

Yu Wentai went east to fight for Jingnan this time, and he would definitely reserve enough troops to guard the dangerous pass. After all, he himself took advantage of Xiao Ji to go north and easily captured the Shu land, so he had to guard against the loss of Guanzhong, and the Qi army took advantage of the situation to go south.

In Luoyang today, the weather is calm, Gao Cheng was worried about alerting the Xiao family brothers, so he did not mobilize for war, and he did not use the clumsy excuse of building a mausoleum.

You can't treat others as fools. If you use this method once, you won't be able to deceive people.

However, as Hu Luguang moved his troops to Shangyong, the Xiao family brothers in the south of the Yangtze River were already gearing up, preparing to stage a scene of fratricide for the world during the national funeral.

43 years ago, Wang Sengbian followed his father Wang Shennian to Nanliang from the Northern Wei Dynasty. He became an official when he was older, and was appointed Zuo Changshi to guard Jiangling with Xiao Yi, who was six years old at the time.

Wang Sengbian tried to persuade Gao Cheng again and again, after all, Gao Cheng had never done anything to betray the alliance before, it was because the benefits he gained were not enough for him to damage his political reputation, but faced with the temptation to seize Jiangnan, he couldn't guarantee that the Northern Qi emperor Just waiting for a good price at this time.

"understood."

This time Gao Cheng conscripted Jianghan soldiers for Hu Luguang, and the ten thousand people under Hou Jing's command also went north, led by Song Zixian.

These ten counties have a vast area, which is equivalent to stretching from Wuhan, Hubei today, passing through some areas of Changsha, Hunan, to Fuzhou, Fujian, and the northerners going south also brought a large number of refugees to Jiangzhou.

The son of Shangyong and Xincheng prefectures had been transferred to Luoyang and became a capital official. Fu Meng had expected this. , The requirements of the new city.

But when they fought one by one, when did they have to fight? At the military meeting, Hu Luguang slammed his fist on the table, gritted his teeth and said:

In the last years of the Western Jin Dynasty, the clothes crowned the south, and the Jin family moved to the south of the Yangtze River. In order to check and balance Jingzhou's strong vassals, the seven prefectures of Yuzhang, Poyang, Luling, Linchuan, Nankang, Jian'an, and Jin'an in Yangzhou and Wuchang, Guiyang, and Jingzhou were designated. There are three counties in Ancheng, and the land of ten counties in total is Jiangzhou, making it a barrier to Jiangdong.

Xiao Yi, who is currently sitting in Jiangzhou, can be said to have enough soldiers and food, and he has Wang Sengbian, Wang Lin, Du Kan and other generals under his command to assist him. Of course he knows what Xiao Lun is planning, but out of confidence in his own strength, I am also willing to seek skin from a tiger.

In order to check and balance the strong feudal clan of Jingzhou, the imperial family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty artificially created the strong feudal clan of Jiangzhou as a barrier, which is to strengthen Jiangzhou to control Jingzhou.

Looking back on the original request now, Fu Meng himself finds it ridiculous. With the power of the Northern Qi Dynasty, how could he set a precedent for himself as a small army leader.

Wang Sengbian almost watched Xiao Yi grow up, of course he knew that he was suspicious by nature, but he did not expect that the lord and minister would still doubt his loyalty after being with him for 37 years, and easily drew his sword against him.

It is worth noting that no matter whether Huan Xuan or Xiao Yan and others can succeed in Jingzhou, they all have one thing in common, the Jiangzhou defense line is useless.

Du Kan, the son-in-law who came to visit the prison, persuaded him.

Wang Sengbian was worried that Northern Qi would take advantage of the chaos and go south, but Xiao Yi relaxed his vigilance on the grounds that Gao Cheng had formed an alliance with him.

The strategy of strengthening Jiangzhou to control Jingzhou has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that Jiangzhou has indeed played the role of a barrier. Since the Eastern Jin Dynasty, as long as Jiangzhou has strong vassal guards to resist, few people can succeed in raising troops in Jingzhou.

Weixing County originated from the period of Cao Wei in the Three Kingdoms period. Cao Pi took the meaning of "Cao Wei Xingsheng" and was relocated from Xicheng County.

"Yue Zhang, you will be wronged in prison for a few days, and my son-in-law will plead with the King for Yue Zhang. When the time comes, the King will summon you and ask Yue Zhang not to disobey the King's wishes again."

Song Zixian was originally a general of Hou Jing's army. He attacked Jianghan in the first battle. Hou Jing was the king, and he was the vanguard along the way.

But Xiao Yi's knife cut off the 37-year friendship between the two after all. Today's Wang Sengbian treats Xiao Yi only with the loyalty of his servants to serve the lord.

The so-called Jingguan is not a Taoist temple, but a high mound formed by gathering enemy corpses.

Therefore, the southern dynasties have been dividing the land of Jiangzhou, but in Xiao Yan's later years, because Gao Cheng seized the Jianghan Plain, his soldiers pointed directly at the south of the Yangtze River. In order to deal with the threat from the north, he changed his routine and placed his son Xiao Yi in Jiangzhou. In addition, he is also strengthening Jiangzhou, intending to make him the vassal of the country.

Wang Sengbian's expression was a bit depressed, he only answered this sentence, and there was no more words.

Of course Duguxin knew that Xicheng County was small and difficult to defend, so he assigned Yang Zhong this task, so that when the Northern Qi army came to the city of Nanzheng, it would be exhausted and it would be easier for him to find a fighter.

On the ninth day of April in the fourth year of Zhaode in the Northern Qi Dynasty (551), Hu Luguang and She Digan passed through Xincheng successively and arrived in Shangyong County.

This kind of thing, don't take prisoners, has never happened since Gao Huan Jianyi, especially when Gao Cheng was in power, he engaged in human trafficking with Nanliang and made a lot of money.

After all, everyone in the world knows that there is still a difference between Gao Cheng and his father, Gao Huan, and they still place more emphasis on the covenant, so far they have not done anything against the covenant.

Since Emperor Xiaowu of the Liu Song Dynasty Liu Jun started his army from Jiangzhou, the strong vassals guarding this place were all incompetent governors of Jiangzhou if they didn't go to Jiankang to win the title.

Wang Sengbian no longer objected to raising troops after this calamity, and he still devoted himself to participating in various pre-war preparations.

Dugu Yongye, the post-military governor, is even more qualified. When Gao Cheng was the heir, he personally went to Jinyang to dig under Gao Huan's command. He has been guarding the pass all these years, and now he has finally been transferred to the front line. .

Knowing that his father-in-law had experienced setbacks, Du Kan didn't think about himself for a while, so he also bid farewell, and prepared to defend Wang Seng when Xiao Yi was in a good mood.

Apparently, this time he was loyal and blunt, but Xiao Yi drew his sword and cut him, causing Wang Sengbian to suffer a huge blow.

On April [-], after a short rest in Shangyong, Hu Luguang asked divination to predict good and bad luck. It has always been Hu Luguang's habit to ask divination before going out for an expedition.

Xiao Lun, who was in Xiangzhou, had already made preparations at this time, and was confidently waiting for the northern battle report.

Thinking that Wang Sengbian stopped him from raising an army because he was interested in Jiankang, he drew his knife and cut Wang Sengbian on the spot. If the generals hadn't begged for mercy, Wang Sengbian might have died on the spot.

Its governing place has been changed many times, and it was determined to be in Xicheng County (northwest of Ankang, Shaanxi) on the north bank of the Han River since the Yongjia Rebellion in the Western Jin Dynasty.

The disadvantages are also obvious. If Jiangzhou's strong vassals revolt and send troops to Jiankang, the distance will be closer and easier, and there will be few obstacles along the way.

Huluguang left Shedigan's [-] navy troops stationed in Shangyong to prepare for Gao Cheng's future southward march.

Although he found a doctor to apply medicine, he was still thrown into prison.

Hu Luguang ordered the vanguard general Song Zixian to send someone to provoke him, trying to lure the snake out of the hole, but the opponent couldn't defend, leaving him with only a means of attacking.

In the past ten years, in order to prevent Gao Cheng from sending troops northward along the Han River to invade Hanzhong, Yu Wentai built many beacon forts and city garrisons on both sides of the Han River in Weixing County.

What he suffered was a knife wound, but what hurt was his heart.

In the upper reaches of the Han River, the water is fast and narrow, and the Northern Qi navy can hardly do anything, but Gao Cheng insists on advancing both land and water, just for the sake of the Xiao family.

In the handsome tent, all the governors responded to their orders one after another. If the emperor really wanted to blame him, Hu Luguang would take the blame, and they only followed orders.

Some loyal words, but Xiao Yi was annoyed. Xiao Yi's suspicion was much heavier than Gao Cheng's.

"Surrender outside the fort first. If you resist stubbornly, after the breach, the defenders will not be left alive. Take their corpses and watch in the next fort outside the fort!"

Therefore, during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Jiangzhou was also known as the anti-thief factory and the rebel base.

The fortune was good, and Hu Luguang took the governor Song Zixian as the vanguard with 1 soldiers, followed by [-] cavalry, [-] infantry, [-] state and county soldiers as the Chinese army, and the governor Dugu Yongye led [-] infantry as the rear. In the army, She Digan personally led [-] sailors, advancing by land and water, and went north along the Han River.

Xiao Yi's temper came and went quickly. Sure enough, before the incident, in response to the plea of ​​Du Kan and others, Wang Sengbian was released and the official was reinstated.

Even Duan Shao, Wang Sizheng and other confidantes guarding other states had to be frequently mobilized, Fu Meng was already mentally prepared, and it would be good for his son to be a Beijing official.

Duguxin sent his confidant Yang Zhong to the front line to guard Weixing. He didn't want to stop the enemy from outside the country and kill or injure many enemy troops, but at least he wanted to make the enemy tired.

Hu Luguang also had a headache when he looked at the bunkers and city garrisons marked on the map.

If it is just a siege, with so many beacon forts, a large number of troops will inevitably be dispersed. If they are left alone, the food road will be threatened again, and they must be pulled out.

No one wants to sit on the throne of the Son of Heaven in Jiankangtai City.

Jiangzhou, where Xiao Yi lived, is undoubtedly a large state.

But Hu Luguang's personality is upright and impatient, and he does extraordinary things at extraordinary times, without frightening the defenders of Fengbao. He really fought all the way to the Nanzheng city, not to mention consuming time and energy, and there will be many casualties.

It stands to reason that being handsome is the most taboo to be impatient, but Hu Luguang with such a personality has fought against the Northern Zhou Dynasty for 20 years in the original time and space, and has hardly lost in more than a hundred battles.

The reason is not only that Hu Luguang understands the art of war and has strategies, but also is able to share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, win the support of the troops, and work hard for him.

　There are still 4000, which should be sent together before four o'clock in the morning.
