Chapter 2058 Guanlong Crisis
Wealth and wealth are found in danger.
Although his basic status no longer requires him to risk his life to gain wealth, but a man is born between heaven and earth, and when he bends his head and breathes, he stands up to the sky and the earth. How can he rely on the merits of his elders and wait to die without doing anything?
His own Erlang was talented. In Fang Xuanling's view, life and death were minor matters, and whether he could make achievements that would shock the past and be remembered for generations to come, that would be the achievement of a lifetime.
The danger of sending troops to Mobei is certainly not small, but the situation is extremely favorable. Xue Yantuo's army that invaded the border area was completely lost, which will definitely leave Mobei empty. If Erlang can find a smooth road to attack Yu Dujun Mountain, he may be able to create something shocking. Maybe Shuo Jin can match Wei Huo’s unparalleled achievements...
Fang Xuanling said solemnly, "Don't make such stupid remarks again! If other families' heirs went to battle, and their families went to cry in front of His Majesty, how would it be unworthy? Do we still need to do important military and national affairs? Can my Fang family be lost?" Have that face!”
Mrs. Lu wiped her tears and nodded: "That's okay, I'm a woman, so I won't make trouble in front of His Majesty. But you, Fang Xuanling, are not a woman, right? You go to the palace for me now, and we don't ask the emperor to transfer Erlang." Come back, can you just ask the emperor to send more troops to reinforce? Xue Wanche is in Dingxiang City and Song Junming is in Shengzhou. Both of them are strong generals, so let them send troops to reinforce immediately."
Fang Xuanling was unambiguous, nodded and said: "Okay, I will enter the palace right now..."
……
What to do if you don’t enter the palace?
The husband and wife have been bickering for half their lives, how can they not know what kind of temper the old wife has? If I were to say "a man has lofty ambitions" today, he would definitely cause endless trouble.
How could a wise man like Fang Xuanling make such a low-level mistake?
Seeing that his old wife had calmed down, Fang Xuanling did not feel ashamed at all for being "a weak husband". He turned to his daughters-in-law and said: "Erlang has a city in his heart. He seems reckless, but in fact he is meticulous. All the drills adopt brand-new drills. Even Duke Wei recently praised him as the most powerful army in the Tang Dynasty. Xue Ren in the army Gui, Xi Junmai, Gao Kan, Cheng Wuting, etc. are all generals with both wisdom and bravery. They are absolutely not afraid of Xue Yantuo's people. Xue Wanche, Song Junming and other famous generals follow closely to protect their rear formation. I will enter the palace immediately and request. Your Majesty has mobilized troops from Shuo, Sheng, and Ling states to provide reinforcements, so there is no need to worry too much.”
The female relatives felt a little relieved.
*****
News from northern Xinjiang spread back to Chang'an, causing shock to both the government and the public.
Who would have thought that not only did His Majesty suddenly fall ill just before the Eastern Expedition was about to begin, causing the Eastern Expedition plan that had been prepared for many years to be put on hold, but that the northern Xinjiang was already in raging war?
Xue Yantuo's troops came to Dingxiang City, intending to invade the Chile River in Monan. The Eastern Turkic Khanate collapsed at the first touch and had already retreated to Yanmen Pass. The tens of thousands of Xue Yantuo's cavalry under his command achieved the greatest military exploits since the overthrow of the Gaochang Kingdom. Fang Jun even led the Youtun guards out of Baidao and directly attacked Xue Yantuo's tooth tent on Yu Dujun Mountain...
A series of news came one after another, surprising everyone in the court.
Is this going to start a war?
Weren't we still discussing the marriage two days ago...
Duke Zhao's Mansion.
In the main hall, Changsun Wuji and Yu Wenshi sat opposite each other.
Just after the New Year, the weather was cold, the earth dragon was burning in the hall, and the tea sets were placed on the coffee table. Changsun Wuji had already driven away all the maids, and poured tea for Yu Wenshiji with his own hands.
The water vapor is curling up and the tea is fragrant.
Yuwen Shiji didn't even have the slightest thought to taste the fragrant tea...
Changsun Wuji picked up the tea cup and took a sip. When he saw Yuwen Shihe frowning, his aging face became more and more sluggish and old. He no longer had the gentle and gentle demeanor of the scholar before, and felt sad in his heart. , he spoke to comfort him: "The matter has come to an end, my benevolent brother Even if you are worried, what's the point? Yu Wenfa did something wrong, and Fang Jun took advantage of it and deprived him of his military power. Under such circumstances, in order to stabilize the situation in Northern Xinjiang, there is no way that His Majesty will let him go easily. , it’s better to prepare as early as possible.”
He tried to persuade Yu Wenshiji to look away, but he himself was filled with panic.
What place is Mayi City?
It is located in northern Xinjiang, close to the Yinshan Mountains. It was the place where the Xianbei people started, the base of the six Xianbei towns, and the headquarters of their Guanlong nobles!
As a result, in his own base camp, as a descendant of the Yuwen family and a leader among the younger generation of Guanlong nobles, Mayi guard general Yu Wenfa was publicly captured by Fang Jun in the military camp and deprived of his military power. , escorted back to Beijing.
The impact of this incident on the reputation of the Guanlong nobles was far greater than the loss of Yu Wenfa's loss of the Mayi guard!
If you can't even defend your old nest, who can you expect to be in awe of the Guanlong nobles?
Changsun Wuji was originally ready to get angry, but when he saw Yu Wenshi and his decrepit appearance, the anger he had been holding in his chest suddenly dissipated.
This outstanding man who was able to remain calm when his younger brother Yu Wenhua and regicide usurped the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and wisely made the decision to join His Majesty Li Er, is now old and his glory is gone. It is as if they have lost everything to each other. The passing years.
Maybe the mahjong table is already more suitable for them.
After all, I am still old...
Yu Wenshi shook his head with a wry smile and sighed: "Yu Wenfa is a traitor who is treasonous. He is reckless and greedy for personal gain. He actually relies on the country's weapons for personal use. This is actually a way to die. Therefore, even if he is sentenced to death, he will not be punished." I feel sad. I am just afraid that His Majesty Long Yan will be angry and take advantage of this to vent his anger on the Yuwen family. If the Yuwen family fails in the hands of the old man, how will he meet his ancestors in the future? "
The corners of Changsun Wuji's eyes twitched slightly, and he suddenly woke up.
This old man is indeed very old, but if you see his old lady and mistakenly think that this is just an old man who cares about the name and future of his nephew, it would be a big mistake.
Being able to recognize the king of His Majesty Li Er from the troubled times such as the late Sui Dynasty, and then stand unswervingly beside His Majesty Li Er to provide full support, and finally seek the current political resources for the Yuwen family, how can he treat an old man from the countryside as View it?
The old tiger is here!
No matter how cliche the tiger is, you can't lose your mind for a moment, otherwise he will bite you...
Yuwen Shiji's words seemed to be regretful, but in fact he was telling Changsun Wuji: Losing one Yuwenfa is not a big deal, and the Yuwen family can afford it.
But if His Majesty vents his anger on the Yuwen family, causing the entire family to be affected, that would be unacceptable.
What does it mean to "rely on the power of the country for personal use"?
Isn’t it because this is the will of the entire Guanlong noble group!
All the Guanlong nobles wanted to see the expulsion of Xue Yantuo as a cake to gain military exploits, and could not accept others coming to take a piece of it, so Yu Wenfa blocked Youwuwei and Youtunwei from leaving the pass and heading north. Now that Yu Wenfa has been captured by Fang Jun, he cannot escape his guilt. It would be fine if he suffers alone. Who said that everyone is a grasshopper on a rope?
The Yuwen family recognized it!
But if the emperor takes the opportunity to weaken and attack the Yuwen family, you cannot sit idly by and ignore it...
Changsun Wuji clicked his tongue and glanced at Yuwen Shiji helplessly.
This old guy is playing rogue...
But at present, the Guanlong nobles are in turmoil, with fierce internal struggles, and they seem to be falling apart. Faced with the emperor's suppression and weakening, they should be united sincerely. Otherwise, if the emperor seizes the loopholes and divides them, things will be bad.
Therefore, facing Yuwen Shiji's rogue tricks, Changsun Wuji really had no way to refute.
Even if there was a way to evade it, he would not do it.
In the final analysis, Yu Wenfa was taken over by Fang Jun in order to keep the control of Northern Xinjiang for the Guanlong nobles. If he ignored it, it would inevitably cause strong dissatisfaction and strong backlash from the Yuwen family. The other families would also inevitably feel sad.
If people's hearts are lost, how can they lead the team?
After thinking about it, Changsun Wuji said: "Fang Jun sent a battle report before the resistance, and mentioned that Shi Xiao Siye, the governor of the Chanyu Governorate, went to Baidao to announce the decree, so he went straight out of Baidao and sent troops to Mobei. However, this matter is quite strange. in advance No matter the disciples or Zhongshu, there was not even a trace of news. Suddenly, the imperial edict arrived in Northern Xinjiang... Xiao Siye was a descendant of the Xiao family and was related to Fang Jun by marriage, but the two had always had a grudge. None of them It is impossible that there are some unknown dirty tricks. Fang Jun has always been bold. How could he know that he could easily get rid of Xiao Siye without making a fool of himself and taking the opportunity to send troops? Making a fuss, as long as you can catch Fang Jun, although it will not completely wipe him out, it will still be a plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao. Your Majesty will definitely not hold on to Yu Wenfa's affairs. "
Yu Wenshi nodded repeatedly.
He glanced at Changsun Wuji and sighed in his heart. If he could find a loophole in the completely passive situation, he would not only be able to move back to a disadvantage, but also be able to hit Fang Jun severely. He has a delicate mind and deserves to be called a "yin man" Nickname...
Changsun Wuji paused for a moment and then said: "Let everyone be prepared. Fang Jun is too wild-minded. Do you really think that Xue Yantuo is made of clay? At the foot of Wuyang Ridge, Xue Yantuo lost all the right time, place and people. This led to the disaster." Defeated at the hands of Xue Wanche, but when he arrived in Mobei, it was Xue Yantuo. In this place where generations of people have lived and thrived throughout the ages, who else, except for a few talented people, can attack from thousands of miles away and attack Dragon City? Fang Jun will definitely be defeated! Once he is defeated, we will work together to clean up the mess!" (End of chapter)
