The last three kingdoms

Chapter 850
Just when Sima Jun was at a loss, Tang Ce, a counselor beside him, said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. I have a plan. I can retreat the Shu soldiers and keep Puban safe."

Sima Jun was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said repeatedly: "You have a clever plan, come and tell me quickly."

Tang Ce said: "A few days ago Dudu Yang defeated the Xiongnu in Shangdang, and now Taiyuan County has raised troops and is approaching Jinyang. Why don't your majesty send someone to Dudu Yang for help? As long as Dudu Yang sends troops to help, the siege of the Shu army will naturally be relieved."

Sima Jun's eyes were shining brightly, waiting for Tang Ce's good plan, but when he heard that he was going to ask Yang Hu for help, Sima Jun's face suddenly became very long, and his expression darkened a little.

In fact, there is no grievance between Sima Jun and Yang Hu, and of course there is no friendship. Before the two led the army in Hebei, there was no intersection. When you meet each other, you nod your head, clap your hands or something.

Sima Jun's prejudice against Yang Hu was actually due to the appointment of the governor. Sima Jun took over Hu Fen's position as the governor of Hedong, while Yang Hu was reused by Sima Yan and was appointed as the governor of Hebei.

Regardless of the difference between the governor of Hedong and the governor of Hebei, there is a world of difference in power. Sima Jun's governor of Hedong only governs the two counties of Hedong and Pingyang, while the governor of Hebei of Yanghu is the governor of Jiqing. The governors of the four prefectures of Youbin can also be seen from the number of troops commanded by the two of them. Yang Hu commands an army of 10,000+, while Sima Jun's command is only 3 people.

He, Sima Jun, is a majestic uncle, the king of Ruyin, but he was overwhelmed by Yang Hu, so he couldn't feel comfortable in his heart.It is estimated that Sima Yan wanted to take care of Sima Jun's face. Originally, Hedong County was also under the jurisdiction of Yanghu, but the governor of Hedong was never assigned to the command of the governor of Hebei. Otherwise, Sima Jun would be even more miserable.

Sima Jun has never been a magnanimous person. He even thought that if he was allowed to be the governor of Hebei, his achievements would definitely be better than that of Yang Hu. Now Tang Ce suggested to ask Yang Hu for help. I have to lose face.

Sima Jun faltered and said: "Yang Hu is far away in Taiyuan, if he returns to the army, I'm afraid... he will be beyond his reach, right?"

Although Tang Ce is a member of Sima Jun, he doesn't know much about Sima Jun's little girl. He worked hard to advise Sima Jun, and naturally he wanted to solve the crisis at Pujin Pass.

"Your Majesty, Taiyuan is only seven or eight days away from Puban. If the cavalry came to help, it would only take three or four days at most. Now Puban is in danger, and it cannot be rescued by the governor of sheep. Your Majesty will send people there sooner or later. change."

Sima Jun also hesitated. Although he was reluctant to ask Yanghu for help, the Shu army was attacking fiercely. It was difficult to stop the defenders of Pujin Pass alone. In the end, Sima Jun could only be Gritting his teeth, he followed Tang Ce's suggestion and sent people to Taiyuan County to ask Yanghu for help.

Although the Shu army had formed a vague siege of Pujin Pass after capturing many of the surrounding fortresses, this siege was not yet as solid as an iron barrel, and the people sent by Sima Jun disguised themselves and broke through relatively easily. The defense line of the Shu army rushed north all the way.

The special envoy of the Jin army rushed all the way, and it only took more than two days to arrive at Zhongdu County in Taiyuan County. In the camp of the Jin army here, the special envoy met Yang Hu.

Yang Hu's army marched northward from Huguan and captured Xiangyuan and Nie County all the way. It was relatively easy, and they were not blocked at all. One soldier.

However, in Yeli Mountain, the Jin army encountered tenacious resistance from the Huns. There was a fortress in Yeli Mountain, which was built by the Huns to besiege the Shu army. The army blocked Shangdang and prevented him from crossing Yeli Mountain and entering Taiyuan County.

The battle was quite fierce. The Jin army, with the power of the Huguan victory, launched round after round of strong attacks on Yelishan Fortress, and finally captured the Yelishan Fortress. The Jin army finally reached the goal of entering Taiyuan County. The goal.

After the Jin army entered Taiyuan County, the first city to conquer was Zhongdu. Just when Yang Hu was full of ambition and was about to march to Jinyang, he unexpectedly met Sima Jun's special envoy.

Since the Battle of Huguan, Yanghu has lost the news of the Shu army. Since the two sides have no hope of joining forces, Yanghu has no way to influence the offensive route of the Shu army.

However, according to Yang Hu's prediction, Liu Yin will definitely lead his army to detour towards Pingyang County, but his ultimate goal will still be Jinyang City.After hearing the news that the Shu army had attacked Pujin Pass, Yang Hu was deeply surprised, but he immediately understood that this was Liu Yin's method in order to get in touch with Guanzhong and obtain supplies and support from Guanzhong. Pujin Pass is by no means Liu's ultimate goal, but just a measure for the Shu army to open up important logistics routes. Yang Hu believes that Liu Yin's real goal is the Xiongnu forces who are in Jinyang.

Yang Hu listened to the special envoy's detailed report, and asked him questions from time to time. Of course, the special envoy didn't dare to hide anything, and told Yang Hu exactly what happened in Puban.

Yang Hu smiled and said to the special envoy: "The real purpose of the Shu people is to obtain the connection between Hedong and Guanzhong. Now the real goal of the Shu people is the Huns who are in Jinyang. Go back and report to King Ruyin and let him Temporarily evacuate from Puban and go to Taiyuan to fight against the Xiongnu together."

The special envoy was dumbfounded when he heard this. The purpose of his trip was to call for reinforcements, but instead of sending troops to rescue Yang Hu, he suggested that Sima Jun withdraw from Pujin Pass to make way for the Shu army. The special envoy always doubted his own Ears, did you hear me wrong?

Yang Hu handed him a letter and said: "Just give this letter to King Ruyin when you go back, and he will understand that the Huns are our only enemy now, and we can only rely on the strength of the Shu people to fight against them." Only then can the Hu people be completely wiped out, I hope that King Ruyin can put the overall situation first, and I am in the central capital, waiting for King Ruyin to take over."

This time the special envoy finally understood, he was humble, so naturally he didn't dare to refute with Yang Hu, seeing that Yang Hu had made up his mind, he got up and went back to Pujin Pass.

Along the way, they walked very smoothly. The special envoy and his party disguised themselves as business travelers, but their makeup was white. They never encountered the Shu army or the Huns along the way, so they went and returned safely.However, the special envoy was worried. After all, the task Sima Jun entrusted to him had not been completed, and he hadn't called in reinforcements. After returning to Pujin Pass, the special envoy still didn't know how to face Sima Jun.
