?Xianzhou Prefecture is under Yecheng, and the Xiangzhou General Administration is under the jurisdiction of the government.

In the back hall, the general manager of Xiangzhou, Yuchi Jiong, sat upright, and was divided into the chief manager of the chief, Shi Cui Dana and other close aides, as well as his sons Yuchi Dun, Yuchi Youqi, and his nephew, Yuchi Qin, the general manager of Qingzhou, were also among them.

The Xiangzhou Army, the main force of the imperial army, breathed a sigh of relief, and the next step was to formulate the next strategy to take the overall situation into consideration.

A few days ago, the battle in Yecheng was thrilling. The Xiangzhou army won first and then defeated and then defeated, and the twists and turns made people sweat when they recalled, and the key to turning the defeat was that letter.

It was April when Yuchi, the Duke of Angu County, obeyed Chang'an, who sent someone a letter to his father Yuchi Jiong. The content on it was sneering at first, but now it has helped Xiangzhou a lot of money!

At first, Yuchi Jiong did not explain the content of the letter to others, but then there was a "big news" in the proclamation to challenge Yang: Yang Jian shamelessly wanted to be ill-telled to the wife of the Duke of Xiyang County, Yuchi Chifan.

Although I don’t know how the Duke of Shu knew about this dirty thing, he would not splash the sewage without being white or pouring it on. Then, when Yuchi Dun was defeated in the Battle of Qinshui in Huai County, he fled back to Yecheng alone, and the old Duke kept reading the letter all day long.

Then he summoned his confidant staff to secretly discuss the letter and let everyone circulate it. Then there was a fierce debate about the content of the letter.

The letter wrote three things, the first one has been 'revealed' in the manifesto and not mentioned it. The second one is shocking. The content written by Yuchi Shun in April said that a master predicted that Yuchi Dun would be defeated by the marshal Wei Xiaokuan in the Battle of Qinshui in Huai County by "a battle against the water" and fled back to Yecheng alone.

Only Duke Shu knew the contents of the letter before, but now the contents were exposed, everyone was shocked: In addition to not talking about the time, location, and the commander of the two sides, the result was actually correct!

Then the third content is even more explosive, saying that the army of both sides will fight decisively in Yecheng next, and the Xiangzhou army will win first and then lose, because the imperial army will attack the "oncrowds" and force them to flee back to Yecheng, so that the soldiers of the Xiangzhou army thought that the military formation collapsed and morale fell sharply, which eventually led to a collapse.

Therefore, the letter suggests setting up an ambush in advance to prevent any changes.

So the fierce debate was for this sensational prophecy. In the end, the public forces of Shu Kingdom opposed the public opinion and specially arranged 6,000 soldiers to divide into two armies, one on the left and one on the right to lie in the city of Ye.

The battle began. As expected, the people of Yecheng were crowded with people going out of the city to watch. Two ambushers saw this and lined up to wait quietly behind the onlookers. When the people of Yecheng saw them standing quietly under the slope of the earth, they were too lazy to care about anything.

Then Yu Wenxin, the marching supervisor of the court army on the west wing, indeed attacked the people of Yecheng, causing a fleeing, and the morale of the Xiangzhou army was also hit by the bad situation. Just when Yu Wenxin led the cavalry to rush up the earth slope to capture the door, he just ran into the ambush that was then lined up the slope, but the entire army was wiped out.

The ambushers lined up on the hillside and waved the banner of the Xiangzhou army, shouting in unison, "The enemy generals are here to be given the head of the enemy, Yecheng Wuyou!" After learning that Wuyou and the commander Yuchi Jiong personally rushed forward, the morale of the Xiangzhou army was greatly improved, and finally reversed the situation and defeated the imperial army in one fell swoop, and won countless results in the subsequent pursuit.

With such a magical letter, even if everyone doesn’t believe in ghosts and gods, it’s a pity that there is no further text in the prophecy in the letter, and there are only four words: “You should do it yourself.”

So the hot topic of discussion is how to use Yecheng's victory to open up the situation, but everyone quickly reached a consensus: first clean up the various general administrations in Henan and Huainan before finding Yang Jian to settle the score!

The army was sent to the vicinity of Luoyang, and the remaining troops crossed the Yellow River in batches to support Henan. Huainan was struggling to support his own camp. After these two places were pacified, they sent troops north to kill Yu Yi, the Youzhou general manager standing on Yang Jian's side.

Li Mu, the general manager of Bingzhou, sent 30,000 elite troops, led by his nephew Li Xun, to attack Yecheng with Wei Xiaokuan, but his entire army was wiped out. He would have no troops to attack Xiangzhou for a while. Moreover, he had to defend against the Turkic troops in the north of Bingzhou. This time, he lost an elite force and then had to deal with the Turkic army that went south from time to time.

The plan has been decided to leave the aides, and Yuchi Jiong, his two sons and a nephew are left in the lobby. Now what is inconvenient to say is now the problem of Yuchi Yi and Yuchi Shun.

Yuchi Jiong has five sons: Yuchi Yi, Yuchi Kuan (deceased), Yuchi Shun, Yuchi Dun, and Yuchi Youqi. The first three were his original wife--born Princess Jin Ming of the Western Wei Dynasty. Princess Jin Ming died early, and the latter two sons were born to his wife Wang.

Just like a common bloody drama in a big family, the relationship between the ex-wife and the son born to the rear-wife is not harmonious.

In May, Yuchi Yi was the governor of Shuozhou at that time under the jurisdiction of Bingzhou General Administration. As a result, his father Yuchi Jiong rose up and rebelled against Yang, he was captured by Li Mu, the general administrator of Bingzhou, and sent to Chang'an. Yuchi Shun, the Duke of Angu County who sent a letter in April to reverse the defeat, also fell into Chang'an after the rebellion in Xiangzhou.

If the two brothers Yuchi Yi and Yuchi Shun are now unclear about their lives and deaths, it would be fine if they died, burn a few more incense sticks every year. How should they rescue them if they are still alive? The aides dare not take on such topics, and only Yuchi Jiong and his nephew can solve them.

What should I do if my family and children are also? According to convention, men will be killed. It is normal for women to be slaughtered into the palace as slaves or to be concubines with other powerful people. To put it bluntly, is it necessary to spend a lot of effort on those "destroyed flowers and willows"?

Yuwen Wen, the son-in-law of Yuchi Shun, is now in Anzhou. At least his daughter Yuchi Chifan can escape the disaster in Chang'an. I don't know what the situation in Anzhou is going on?

Yuchi Jing and his son and nephew discussed for a long time and decided to watch the situation and make plans. He knew that Yuwen Liang was mediocre in his military use, so he was afraid that he could not resist the Jingxiang army under the command of the Marshal of the Army, Wang Yi, and there was no hope for Anzhou.

I feel sorry for my granddaughter Yuchi Chifan, I am afraid I will be lost in the chaos...

Anzhou Prefecture, a wine shop somewhere.

Chief Supervisor Du Shijun and Chief Supervisor Yu Wenming, and the second son Yu Wenwen held a banquet to greet the imperial envoys who had arrived in Anlu this afternoon. The guests of the two sides sat down and gathered together.

The envoys of the court were divided into chief envoys, and the other two were followers. The envoys were Zheng Yi, the chief of the Prime Minister's Office, and Huang Fu Ji, the chief envoys of the Inner Historian. They spent only five days to "run" from Chang'an to Anlu.

In this era, riding horses on the official roads was already very fast, and even if you travel 150 miles a day, you would have to change horses. After a long time, you would not be able to stand it. Of course, there were also cavalry raids that marched 300 miles day and night, but it was a battlefield where life could not be normal.

Zheng Yi, Huangfu Ji and his entourage all had tired expressions and swollen eyes. They were afraid that they would sleep on the road from Chang'an through Wuguan to Anlu for more than a thousand miles.

Unlike the shabby literati who were powerless in later generations, the aristocrats and clans of this era are both civil and military, and can lift pens and writes, ride horses and shoot arrows, and can also talk about a game.

For example, Zheng Yi, although he is greedy for money, he is proficient in music, and he is very good at riding and shooting arrows. If he pulls him and Yuwen Wen out of PK archery, he is probably going to finish it.

Of course, as a negotiation strategy, you can travel day and night, but you cannot rush to "bargain". You still have to do the hard work in this scene.

So Zheng Yizheng and the second son of Anzhou chief manager Yuwen Wen drank a small wine while watching the dancer singing and dancing. The chief manager Du Shijun and the eldest son of the chief manager Yu Wenming kept toasting Huangfu Ji and his entourage.

"Duke Pei, I've been so relaxed after not seeing you for several months." Yuwen Wen filled Zheng Yi with a glass of wine. "When I was in Chang'an, thanks to Duke Pei's help, I finally survived that period and was able to reunite with my wife."

"You are polite to Xiyang County. The couple gathered together again and was really blessed by the Buddha." Zheng Yi did not forget to add a sentence after he said, "What the rebels in Xiangzhou said is pure slander, so don't take it to heart."

'I know, I know it was Yuwen Yun who beat my wife and not your Duke of Sui. Besides, this copy was still what I thought of?' Yuwen Wen complained but smiled and said no, and he asked in a warm atmosphere, "I don't know how the war in Xiangzhou is going?"

Not only Zheng Yi asked this question, but even Huangfu Ji, who was sitting next to him, looked at him in surprise: Can such a thing be asked in public?

To put it bluntly, you are actually rebellious all the way. But now the court and Anzhou have something to ask each other and pretend to be crazy and stupid at the same time. If you ask this, we cannot tell you the fact that the court's defeat is a big defeat. We must say that the Xiangzhou rebels are not far from being defeated.

Although you may not believe our words, it will always be heard from public public. This will affect the morale of Anzhou for no reason. Is it sure that it is not a teammate of the pig?

"Ahem, the war in Xiangzhou is tight now." Zheng Yi was almost choked after hearing Yu Wen Wen's words, and gave an ambiguous answer. Then he quickly ate a few bites of food to shock him.

This kid is still so unrestrained!

Yuwen Wen seemed to have not noticed his improper wording. After pouring wine for Zheng Yi, he touched another glass of wine and continued to ask: "I heard that the Duke of Angu County has been beheaded by the Prime Minister and displayed it in public?"

"Cough cough cough." Zheng Yi was choked again after drinking halfway through the wine. He began to regret chatting with Yuwen Wen. "Don't listen to people's nonsense. The family of Angu County Duke is now under the supervision of the mansion and is not allowed to go out. The Prime Minister's strict law enforcement will definitely not kill him."

"That's good, that's good." Yuwen Wen nodded and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. "I heard that my parents were crying to death when they were killed. I haven't been close to me for more than a month."

This time it was Yu Wenming and Du Shijun's turn to look at him in surprise: You pretend to be like a boy. You have been wandering around and have not been close to you for more than a month. I'm afraid you haven't stopped all night in the past few days!

Zheng Yi coughed dryly, picked up the wine glass and picked up a wine pot and ran away from his seat to clink the glass with Yu Wenming: "Come on, come on, the prince has a drink with the prince."

Huangfu Ji looked at Yuwen Wen with interest. His eyes flashed, as if he was thinking about something. Seeing this, Yuwen Wen leaned over with a smile: "I have worked hard all the way, so I will respect you."

The two drank the wine in the glass in one go. Before Huangfuji put down the wine glass, they heard each other ask, "I'm sorry, I heard that Chang'an is a little uneasy?"

"What is peace?" He raised his eyebrows and asked back.

"I heard that King Zhao was going to rebel."

Huangfu Ji almost couldn't hold the wine glass in his hand. He coughed a few times and tried to squeeze out his smile: "Don't listen to people's nonsense. King Zhao is a wise king of the royal family, how could he have rebelled?"

Before Yuwen Wen could speak, he picked up his glass and walked towards Yu Wenming: "The prince has a drink with the prince."

Seeing Yuwen Wen clinking glasses and chatting with people around him heartlessly, Huangfu Ji showed doubts: Could it be that I am thinking too much?
