Chapter 156: The Stalemate Civil War (2) [2 in 1](1/2)

"Xiao Luan..."

Because Fan County was attacked, Prince Wei Yu was in a very agitated mood.

The Eastern Army was stabbed in the back by the Dunqiu Army. This really surprised many people. It was an unexpected thing, but among these people, there should not be Young Master Wei Yu.

Yes, Wei Yu miscalculated.

His initial idea was very good: since the conflict with Puyang was irreconcilable, he decided to take the lead in resolving the current conflict and put Xiao Luan behind; the reason why he did not recruit the "Dunqiu Army" that was secretly controlled by Xiao Luan

, and also didn’t want Xiao Luan to see his weak and difficult situation.

But it turns out that Wei Yu underestimated Xiao Luan too much - Xiao Luan would not show mercy to Wei Yu just because Wei Yu could not move him temporarily. No, after Wei Yu launched an rebellion against Tan Yuan Hou Wei Zhen, the morale of the whole army was greatly boosted.

In Puyang, Xiao Luan suddenly launched an attack and captured Fan County, cutting off the Eastern Army's return route and food route.

It has to be said that Wei Yu is indeed not as good as Zhao Run in handling this matter. If it were Zhao Run, he would never let the scourge Xiao Luan continue to exist. He would definitely be the first to capture and kill him. At the very least, he would have to kill him.

Eliminate the hidden danger of the Dunqiu Army, and then send the army to Puyang.

It can only be said that Wei Yu's ideas are too naive and too idealistic on some things.

"Sir, Marquis Tan Yuan is here."

Just as Wei Yu was thinking about countermeasures, a message from the guard came from outside the tent.

Wei Yu took a long breath and said, "Please come in, Marquis Tan Yuan."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tan Yuan Hou Wei Zhen stepped into the tent, raised his hands towards Wei Yu and said: "Sir, the arrangements for garrisoning the camp have been completed... In addition, when the soldiers and generals were cutting down the trees just now, the Puyang army

They were ready to make an attack, but saw that our army was heavily fortified, so they did not attack."

Wei Yu nodded after hearing this.

In fact, he had already heard the soldiers report this matter before burning incense.

He knew very well that the main reason why the Puyang Army did not attack was because of the 8,000 Tanyuan Army under the command of Tanyuan Marquis Weizhen. Although it was not as good as the Puyang Army in terms of weapons and equipment, the Tanyuan Army was also a well-armed regular army. This rebel army

, its threat in the eyes of the Puyang Army will definitely not be weaker than the more than 40,000 Eastern Army under the command of Young Master Wei Yu.

"Marquis Tan Yuan helped Wei Yu. I will not forget this kindness." Wei Yu said with sincere gratitude.

Hearing this, Tan Yuanhou Wei Zhen smiled bitterly.

As a nobleman of the Wei family who has always been known as loyal to the emperor and patriotic, I am afraid that Tanyuan Hou Wei Zhen never imagined that he would disobey the king's orders and join the "rebellious ministers".

Of course, it was a sigh of relief, but he did not regret it. After all, he did think that Prince Wei Yu was more wise than his father, King Wei Fei - especially when "Han General Sima Shang invaded the country", Prince Yu wanted to protect Wei Yu.

His resolute move to fight against the people in the eastern part of the country won the favor of Tan Yuanhou Wei Zhen.

"Yesterday, my old friend in Puyang sent someone close to tell me that the king... he has classified me as a young master."

After sitting down in the tent, Tan Yuanhou Weizhen said with a wry smile.

Wei Yu was stunned for a moment, then apologized and said: "It was Wei Yu who caused Marquis Tan Yuan to be implicated..."

Tan Yuanhou Weizhen waved his hand and said seriously: "It's none of your business, this is my own decision."

As he spoke, he seemed to realize something, and said with a smile: "This man is getting old, and his memory is not as good as it used to be... I don't come here to complain to the young master." As he said that, his face straightened,

He asked in a deep voice: "Master, as far as I know, the Dunqiu army turned against them? And they attacked Fan County?"

"Have you heard about it, Marquis Tan Yuan?" Wei Yu asked with a wry smile.

Tanyuan Hou Weizhen nodded, and then asked in confusion: "I don't understand why the Dunqiu army turned against Puyang? Isn't that Gongyi the general you personally promoted, sir?"

Wei Yu opened his mouth, speechless.

At this moment, he was in trouble and couldn't express it.

How should he explain to Tan Yuan Hou Weizhen? That Gongyi was actually Xiao Luan, a thief wanted by the Wei State? And the reason why he protected Xiao Luan, whose pseudonym was Gongyi, was because he was greedy for Xiao Luan's savings?

I can't say it.

Seeing that Wei Yu hesitated several times, Tan Yuan Hou Wei Zhen immediately realized that there must be something fishy in this. After frowning slightly, he said sincerely: "Young Master, only by telling the truth can I make suggestions for you.

…”

Wei Yu hesitated for a moment, and finally told Tan Yuan Hou Wei Zhen everything about Xiao Luan. Hearing the secret, Tan Yuan Hou Wei Zhen was dumbfounded, and his hair stood on end, and he exclaimed: "That Gongyi

It’s actually… it’s actually…”

At this time, the way he looked at Wei Yu was slightly wrong.

He had to admit that some of the slanderous words Wei Wang Fei had against Young Master Wei Yu were not just nonsense - you, Wei Yu, are so courageous that you actually dare to protect the wanted criminals of Wei?!

It doesn’t matter if he is an ordinary wanted criminal in Wei State, but he is Xiao Luan!

The leader of the remnants of the Xiao family in Wei!

This person provoked the Chu-Wei war by killing Chu envoys, and also provoked civil strife in the Wei state one after another. Even the "Five Parties Attack on Wei" was initiated by this person, which almost pushed the Wei state to the brink of collapse. It seems that

How dare Wei Yu protect such a serious criminal who would never be forgiven even if he died in Wei State?

"Wei, does the State of Wei know?" Tan Yuan Hou Weizhen was a little embarrassed even when he spoke.

It's no wonder, after all, in his opinion, once this matter is leaked, it will definitely arouse the outrage of the Wei State. How will he Weiguo explain this matter?

"King Wei knows." Wei Yu said calmly.

"..." After hearing this, Tan Yuan Hou Weizhen turned pale with fright at first. Then, after realizing that King Zhao Run of Wei and the young master in front of him were close cousins, he finally breathed a sigh of relief with some understanding.

He smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"What's the attitude of King Wei?" Tan Yuan Hou Wei Zhen asked cautiously.

"The King of Wei is very generous. He only wants Xiao Luan's head. As long as we present Xiao Luan's head, he can pretend that this has never happened." When saying this, Wei Yu couldn't help but think again.

Thinking of my cousin Zhao Run.

After all, he admitted that his cousin Zhao Run was indeed generous and a person who valued family ties.

"It seems that the young master and the King of Wei have negotiated for a long time. That's good, that's good..." Tan Yuan Hou Weizhen nodded repeatedly in relief. Then, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something and asked: "By the way, why didn't the young master ask the king of Wei for help?"

Looking for help?"

In the view of Tan Yuan Hou Wei Zhen, based on Wei Yu's relationship with Wei King Zhao Run, as long as he can persuade the Wei State to side with him, Puyang's Wei Wang Fei will no longer be a threat.

Wei Yu shook his head when he heard this and said seriously: "After all, this is an internal matter of our country, how can we ask outsiders to interfere?"

At this point, he paused for a moment and then continued: "Furthermore, King Zhao Run of Wei is a arrogant and domineering king. If I ask him to help me, it would be better if my father obeys his wishes. Otherwise...I am afraid that my father will obey him."

There is no guarantee for late holidays.”

Indeed, although King Fei of Wei had a close friendship with the previous two kings of Wei, he had no close relationship with the current King of Wei, Zhao Run. Therefore, King Fei of Wei might not listen to Zhao Run's 'advice'——

After all, this matter concerns his throne.

The problem is that Zhao Run has always been a arrogant and domineering person who "those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish". If King Fei of Wei refuses his advice, Zhao Run might use various means to force Wei.

Wang Fei abdicates the throne, which is something Wei Yu does not want to see - Wei Wang Fei is his father after all, and he hopes that his father will abdicate in a dignified way.

After hearing this, Tan Yuan Hou Wei Zhen secretly sighed in his heart. He did not expect that the young master Wei Yu was still thinking about his father under such circumstances.

After a while, the topic returned to "Fan County". Tanyuan Marquis Wei Zhen said to Wei Yu seriously: "Sir, although Tanyuan and Juancheng can temporarily provide food and grass for the Eastern Army, in the long run, we still need to recapture it.

Fan County, open up the grain road to the east."

The long-term plan he mentioned was that he was not sure how long the confrontation with the Puyang Army would last. After all, it was the most elite army in his defense. If he could not expel Xiao Luan's Dunqiu Army as soon as possible, as time went by, his Eastern Army would inevitably be destroyed.

They will be in trouble - Tanyuan and Juancheng alone cannot support the current 50,000 to 60,000 Eastern Army, including Tanyuan's army.

"I have sent "Xiao Bu" to lead the army to Fan County." Wei Yu said.

The Xiao Bu he mentioned was also a general with a background as a ranger of the Wei Kingdom. He was quite powerful and generous, and was also very popular among the soldiers. He was a general whom Wei Yu trusted and recognized in addition to Xia Yu and Meng Bi.

.

Seeing that Wei Yu had made arrangements, Tan Yuan Hou Wei Zhen said nothing more and continued to discuss with Wei Yu the matter of fighting the Puyang army.

But they never expected that just two days later, Xiaobu's army would bring back news of their defeat.

It turned out that Xiao Bu led his army to attack Fan County. Seeing that his own troops were large and Dunqiu's army was small, he immediately launched an attack on the city. Unexpectedly, Xiao Luan and his Dunqiu army were so successful in defense that Xiao Bu could only attack the city.

Retreat ten miles to set up camp.

However, that night, Xiao Luan led Dunqiu Army to attack Xiaobu Army at night.

It is worth mentioning that although Xiaobu was born as a wild ranger, he had experienced the "War with Korea" and the "Battle of Dongjun". Naturally, he could guess that the Dunqiu Army might attack him at night. Therefore, there was

guarded against.

It's a pity that Xiao Luan was more skilled and sent two strange troops, one to feign an attack and the other to attack in the west, and successfully attacked Xiaobu's army and burned their food and grass with one move.

In the chaotic battle, Shaub tried to turn the tide with his personal bravery, but unfortunately, an unexpected cold arrow easily took away the life of this heroic man.

"how so?"

After hearing the reports of the defeated soldiers, Wei Yu, Tan Yuanhou Wei Zhen, Meng Bi, Xia Yu and others were all silent.

You must know that Xiao Bu is also a brave general. He took the lead in fighting the Korean army under the command of Han general Sima Shang and gained a lot of fame. He never thought that he would be defeated by Xiao Luan so easily and even died on the battlefield.

It can only be said that they do not understand Xiao Luan's life.

As the eldest son of Nanyan Marquis Xiao Boyuan, Xiao Luan showed his talent in military strategy at a young age. When Zhao Si seized the throne, Xiao Luan also turned against him and dealt a fatal blow to the then King Jing Zhao Yuanzuo.

, assisted Yu Wang Zhao Yuanke to defeat the Shunshui army.

Zhao Yuanxi, Zhao Yuanke, Zhao Yuanzuo and others all spoke highly of Xiao Luan. If the Xiao family disaster had not happened later, Xiao Luan would have definitely become a famous general in the Wei State with his talents. Compared with Shao Hu and Sima An,

Wei Ji, Jiang Bi and others were even worse. How could a general like Xiao Bu, who was born as a ranger and knew only a little about the use of troops, be able to deal with them? - Sending Xia Yu forward, I'm afraid it would only be a reluctant effort.

"Incredible..."

After hearing the report of the defeated soldiers, Xia Yu said in surprise: "Xiao Bu has eight or nine thousand soldiers under his command, and Xiao... Gongyi's command is only four or five thousand Dunqiu troops. He never thought that these four or five thousand soldiers
