Chapter 376
Naturally, the Shaofu did not dare to stay in Yinyang. He had no confidence in his thousand-man army, as if any force could swallow it up. He was forced to drive his car and embark on the road north again.
After marching all night, the army arrived at the line between Chengying and Daling. Chengying and Daling are adjacent to each other, and their fields are connected. There are thousands of households on both sides of the southbound road. The most eye-catching thing about this place is a huge
Mounds of earth stand beside the road. There are lakes on both sides of the road, and further to the west, there are winding rivers.
This is a border town of Wei, and the defense force is not strong. Only a few hundred civilian troops were recruited locally. The city is small and can only act as a deterrent to the armed forces. In fact, Hu Yang sent out five vanguards the night after the Shaofu set off.
Thousands of men advanced in concealment. The news that the Shaofu was blocked simplified Hu Yang's task. Shortly after the Shaofu left, the Qin army's vanguard launched an attack. Five thousand men formed a neat formation on the plain, like a wave.
Advancing forward, it directly shocked the defenders. Ying, who was in charge of Cheng Ying and Daling, ordered Chuicheng to escape, and the resistance of the two cities collapsed instantly. When Hu Yang arrived with the rear guard and the baggage, the two cities had already calmed down.
All the strong men left the city and gathered near the lake. There were soldiers guarding the hills. The newly promoted Gongcheng Wangling had already left the city and was waiting. When the rear army arrived, they were led by officials at all levels to camp.
Hu Yang and Wang Ling took the Shaofu to interrogate Cheng Ying and other captured officials in Daling: Ying Wei, Ying Cheng, Cheng Ying Chief, Daling Chief, etc. According to Ying Cheng, the order to cut off traffic had just been received.
The Shaofu's convoy arrived. Ying Wei said that there were no preparations in the city at that time. If the Shaofu forced his way in, he would definitely be able to pass. These remarks obviously made the Shaofu feel embarrassed. He also asked: "Han Wei, between brothers
Bang, what’s the way to stop it?”
Ying Cheng said: "Wang Yu, Han and Qin Lianheng broke their trust and betrayed their alliance, so we must be on guard and not allowed to pass!" The young man's face turned red and white, and he didn't know what to say.
Hu Yang said: "Seeing that the way forward is cut off, what can the young master do?"
The young master had no idea, but he also knew that he couldn't listen to Hu Yang or even discuss this matter with Hu Yang. If he made a wrong move, he would be shattered to pieces! He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and said: "Something happened.
In a hurry, I dare not be specific and dare to fly to report to Zheng Guo to ask for advice!"
Hu Yang said: "In that case, I hope the young master will do it!"
The Shaofu said: "While I am awaiting orders, please attach the general to the convoy. I hope the general will accept it."
Wang Ling said: "The two cities are full, I would like to stay outside the city!"
The young master said: "Here you go! I would like to stay by the roadside."
Wang Ling called for a public official, and the Shaofu also called for his school leader, and the two of them jointly arranged the camp fence.
A public official came in and asked how to deal with the elite in the city. Hu Yang said: "But they gathered in the front court of the city, and each day they were assigned to the camp."
At night, the doctors went back to their rooms to rest. The young man declined the invitation to rest in his room and returned to his army's camping ground. He found two doctors and carefully described to them the situation they had encountered so far, and then
Let them repeat it. Give them a piece of slip, write the word "face to face", and ask them to quickly return to Zheng to ask for instructions. Ask the school leader to find five capable soldiers, protect the two doctors and disappear into the dark night.
.
After a day and night of hurried travel, the seven people finally entered the city before Zheng Guoguan. The two doctors were so tired that they could not speak. When the doctor on duty saw this, he arranged for them to rest and eat, and reported it to the young master.
The left-behind Shaofu Cheng quickly reported to Prince Han.
Hearing that the two doctors were escorted by soldiers and came back on foot, Prince Han knew that something serious was going on. In the previous reports, the envoys came and went by car. He invited Han Ping, the prime minister, and Bao Yuan, the general of Han Dynasty, to bring them first.
One person comes up.
A doctor was brought to the main hall of Prince Han. Prince Han sat in the middle, and Han Ping and Bao Yuan sat at the bottom. The doctor came in, bowed, and knelt beside the door.
Prince Han said: "What does the young man teach you?"
The doctor said: "The Shaofu said that the former was ordered to receive the cinnabar in Yinyang, which was of excellent shape. He drove back to Zheng overnight. When he passed through Chengying and Daling, he was rejected by Wei. The Shaofu did not dare to challenge him.
, Gong Qi changed, so he returned to Yin Yang and relied on Qin. Qin then sent troops to Chengying and captured two cities. He consulted Yingcheng, and reported to the king of Wei for instructions, and the road was blocked from Han. The north road was cut off. Now the Shaofu lives in Chengying according to Qin.
In the mausoleum, I ordered the ministers and others to ask for orders in the palace. "
The doctor's narration was like a thunderbolt from the blue, shocking the three people's hearts and minds, and they couldn't recover for a long time. In the end, the old and frail Bao Yuan recovered the fastest and cursed repeatedly: "Absurd, ridiculous!"
Han Ping still didn't seem to believe it and asked: "Did the Qin people take over Wei Yi?"
The doctor said: "Of course!"
Han Ping asked: "Where is the Prime Minister?"
The doctor said: "After hearing Ying's order, he fled from the city, and the rest went into the Qin camp."
Han Ping asked: "Where is the young master now?"
The doctor said: "Camping in Chengying, on the main road between Dalings."
Han Ping asked: "Where are the Qin people?"
The doctor said: "We are all staying in the two cities. It is said that both cities are full and there is no room for anyone. Therefore, it is really rude for me to stay outside the city!"
Han Ping was so angry that he didn't know what to say.
Bao Yuan asked: "How big is the Qin army?"
The doctor said: "Both cities are full, tens of thousands of people."
Bao Yuan asked again: "How can the Qin people attack the city?"
The doctor said: "Maybe I heard that Shaofu's northward journey was blocked, so he was supposed to protect him!"
Prince Han saw that the doctor was talking more and more outrageously, so he waved his hand and said: "The doctor has worked hard, please rest for a while and I will answer you later." Then he ordered another doctor to come up.
When there were only three people left in the palace, Prince Han sighed: "Disaster is coming!" The remaining two people's faces turned pale and they could no longer even nod.
Finally Han Ping burst out and said: "How foolish to use Qin people to protect you!"
Bao Yuan was still calm and said: "Qin wanted to attack Wei, but it was not in the name of it. Now it is in the name of opening the way to Han, and it will trap Han in one fell swoop, which is unjust, and it is a plan to gain advantage from Qin."
Prince Han said with a mournful face: "What can I say to Wei Zhaoye now?"
Bao Yuan said: "But if you raise your troops to face each other, what can you say?" When Prince Han saw the torch coming, he said: "Someone has arrived again." The three of them straightened their clothes and sat down again.
After the second doctor saluted, he also knelt down by the door. Prince Han asked, "What does the young man teach you?"
The answer of the second doctor was basically the same as that of the first doctor, except that the word "unexpectedly" was added in front of "Qin Nai sent troops to the city and took two cities." It seems that it is indeed the oral edict of the Shaofu, but the two people's
The understanding is slightly different.
Bao Yuan asked: "Why did Wei cut off my trade?"
The doctor replied: "The master has not taught me anything, so I don't know what I know."
Bao Yuan asked: "When did the Qin people attack the two cities?"
The doctor said: "We received a message last night and returned to Zheng one night. Yesterday morning we returned to Yinyang, and yesterday the two cities were still under the control of the Wei people. Maybe it was yesterday morning."
Baoyuan asked: "Where will Han Ying stay?"
The doctor said: "In the middle of the road, I was held hostage by the Qin camp."
Bao Yuan said: "The Qin people attacked Wei Yi, did the Shaofu know about it?"
The doctor said: "The young master has entered the Qin camp, and we all have a rest. We will set off at dusk. I don't think the young master knows what the Qin people did."
Han Ping said: "How can the young master return to Yiyang and live in the Qin Dynasty? He will stay by the city..." As if he realized that it was inappropriate to say this, he stopped talking.
Seeing that no one had any other questions, Prince Han also ordered the doctor to go down and rest. Then he asked, "What do you mean, sir?"
Prime Minister Han said: "Maybe we should send an envoy to Daliang to express our intention. The attack on Wei Yi is not my intention. It is actually held hostage by Qin."
Bao Yuan said: "There is no other, but be prepared for war!"
Prince Han said: "Rong Buyi, please give me your permission."
Both of them bowed and said, "Here!"
Prince Han said: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment." He hurriedly left and went to the bedroom. When he returned a little while ago, he said: "Your Majesty, if there is any discord, please consult Mr. Chen!"
Han Ping stroked his forehead and said, "If you are not the king, how could I forget about it?"
Prince Han said: "I hope Prime Minister Han will visit Chen Gong as soon as possible. The general will set up a defensive approach."
Han Ping said: "What can the young man do?"
Prince Han said: "We will discuss it someday." The two left, and Bao Yuan returned to his home. He called a capable retainer and gave him instructions, asking him to lead a group of elite Korean soldiers to station in Huayang, and ordered Huayang to prepare. During the battle, all the people in the four towns of Huayang entered the city to prepare for the war. If the combined forces of Wei and Zhao attacked, he would take overall command of the defense.
Han Ping rushed to the mansion and asked to see Chen Zhen.
Chen Zhen had already gone to bed. When he heard that Han Ping was asking for an audience, he knew something important was going on, so he hurriedly got up to greet him. After the two of them had finished the ceremony, they sat down separately. Chen Zhen said, "If Prime Minister Han has something to do, just call him in. How dare you?" Thank you for your love!"
Han Ping said: "The time has been decided. However, it is urgent to disturb Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen will not be guilty!"
Chen Zhen said: "How dare you. How dare you disrespect Prime Minister Han when he calls you? How dare you ask for advice?"
Han Ping said: "As a gift from the King of Qin, our city received thousands of good elixirs. However, it was revealed that we were trapped by a villain. The Qin general was so angry that he actually pulled out the two cities of Wei. Now Daliang is furious and will punish our city. I only invite Chen Give it a public solution!"
Chen Zhen listened quietly. After hearing this, he raised his head and said, "What does Han Xiang want to do? I should explain it to you!"
Han Ping said: "It would be a great blessing if Wei can dispel his doubts and not raise his troops!"
Chen Zhen said: "This is easy! The prince sent an envoy to Daliang to ask for the crime of attacking the city. Three thousand catties of cinnabar were used to pay for it. He raised another 20,000 troops to Xingyang and went west to attack Qin. Wei must be relieved and defeat Han. How can it be attacked? Of?"
Han Ping didn't understand what Chen Zhen meant, so he quickly expressed his position: "No, no. Han will not attack Qin with a single soldier."
Chen Zhen said: "The second thing is to invite troops to Qin as foreign aid. When Wei and Zhao see Qin and Han join forces, they will not dare to abandon Qin and attack Han."
Han Ping hesitated and said: "The three Jin Dynasties are brothers. Brothers are close to each other. Although they have good friends, they are not ruthless."
Chen Zhen said: "In the Ming Dynasty, Qin general Hu Yang was transferred to escort Dansha into Zheng. This is to show his friendship. Wei and Zhao may be afraid and not attack."
Han Ping said: "Han is a small country. It has inherited the kindness of a big country and dare not forget it. If the Qin people invade Zheng, they may not be able to supply the Zhou Dynasty and lose the meaning of the Eastern Road."
