Chapter 200 Investigation
After Wang Dun came back, his house was empty.
Princess Sima Xiuyou stayed alone in the room, not knowing what she was doing.
He didn't want to ask or see her. After finishing his breakfast leisurely, he wanted to listen to his concubine Song Yi play "Plum Blossoms Falling" to relax his tense emotions and cultivate his sentiments.
I’ve been really tired lately.
Fortunately, Song Yi was blessed with natural beauty and great talent in music and rhythm. Among all Luoyang, perhaps only the Jing family of the Sanqi Shilang Wang Yan family could rival him.
There are always beauties, some of them extremely beautiful, but there is nothing inside, which really makes people uninterested.
So he dismissed the other concubines and left Song Yi alone to entertain himself and soothe his mood without showing his treasure to others.
It is so rare to have both beauty and talent!
Compared with Song Yi, Princess Xiangcheng was arrogant and domineering, so she was not a good match. If he had not indulged in sex in his early years and suffered physical defects, he would have given birth to children with Song Yi and taught them carefully.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help it any longer, got up and called the servant, and asked: "Where is Su'e? Call her."
The servant glanced at him and hesitated to speak.
Wang Dun was a little curious and asked: "But you haven't gotten up yet?"
"Yes..."
Wang Dun smiled and said as he went out: "Wait. I'll go and have a look. It's so wonderful that the beauty is sleeping in spring."
"Mr. Song, Princess Song stayed in the first room in the west wing last night," the servant said with a heartbeat.
Wang Dun paused.
It suddenly occurred to him that Shao Xun stayed in the mansion last night, seemingly in the first room on the west side, and he even met him this morning.
He suddenly turned around and headed straight towards the west wing.
His footsteps became faster and faster, and his fists gradually became clenched. No one could see his expression clearly, but everyone knew that he was on the verge of rage.
"Bang!" The door was pushed open, and what came into view was a field of white flowers.
Song Yizheng lowered his head and put on his clothes silently, preparing to get up.
Wang Dun felt a burst of energy and blood attack his heart. After a while, he asked without giving up: "Su'e, you--Shao Xun didn't do anything to you, right?"
Song Yi's eyes widened. Red, slightly covering her slender white thighs, she stood up and saluted.
Wang Dun glanced quickly, but he would rather he saw nothing.
"Bang!" He slammed the door and went out again, looking up at the sky.
The clouds are very light, almost invisible.
He lowered his head again, the grass was green and full of green.
“It must be that bitch from Sima Maoyuan!” Wang Dun quickly figured it out in his mind and became furious: “It’s just that you abandoned yourself to the Tao. Is it worth hating me so much?”
He Walking around the hospital, the expression on his face changed drastically. One moment he was gritting his teeth, another moment he was cold and ruthless, and the next moment he was full of fear.
Song Yi walked out of the door and floated into the distance like a lonely ghost.
Wang Dun seemed to notice it, but he didn't seem to notice it.
He walked around restlessly like a trapped animal.
I don’t know how long he walked, but he finally stopped. A trace of determination flashed across his face, and he regained his composure in a moment. Nothing strange could be seen anymore.
He left the west wing, returned to the study, found the military book, and read it carefully.
There are many children in the Wang family. If he wants to stand out, he relies on talking about mysteries, building relationships, and political balance. He has no advantage at all, except for one thing: within the Wang family, he is the best at knowing soldiers.
If there is a military position, it will most likely fall to him, and no one else will.
This is his greatest and only advantage.
Now we have to continue on this path, strive for excellence, and finally harvest the sweet fruits of victory.
He could only do this.
If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely kill this bitch Sima Xiuyou. It is best not to notice her. Because there were some troubles that even he couldn't bear, and the Wang family couldn't bear them, they could only slowly look for opportunities.
Wang Yan came back in the afternoon, with a slightly worried look on his eyebrows.
When he entered the palace just now, no one else noticed, but he secretly saw it.
Shao Xun was very familiar with the military academy guarding the palace, and they talked for a long time from a distance before entering the palace with him.
How can this person be able to exploit the camp better than me?
I decorate the court for the Tutor and the Emperor, and you train the military academy for them, right?
While he was thinking, the servant came over quietly and whispered in Wang Yan's ear.
After hearing this, Wang Yan was speechless for a long time.
What time has it been and why are you still here? How unbecoming it is to make the house restless.
"Call Song Yi." Wang Yan took off his shoes, knelt down on the couch and said.
"No." The servant saluted and was about to leave, but was stopped by Wang Yan.
The expression on the old man's face changed, and finally he felt that some dirty things were not suitable for him to do, so he said: "Send someone to bring Song Yi's family into the house, and then send a car to take them there. This girl is sent to Liang County. After doing this, report it to the princess and see what she says. "No." The servant understood and knew what to do.
This is called killing three birds with one stone. The princess is obviously angry, and this move may help calm her down.
If you control Song Yi’s family, you will also control Song Yi.
Sent to Liang County to sell Lu Yanghou a favor, letting him know that the Wang family was reluctant to part with him and felt guilty.
Actually, no matter how effective the strategy is, this is the only thing we can do now.
After dismissing the servant with a wave of his hand, Wang Yan sat down quietly, thinking about the pros and cons of entering the palace to ask questions.
******
On the post road from Luoyang to Liang County, carts loaded with food and ordnance were slowly moving forward.
It is still beneficial to enter the palace. The emperor agreed, and Wang Yan ordered to distribute a large amount of food and equipment and a small amount of money and silk to Shao Xun, and led him out to Xiangcheng to block a road for the thieves to enter the capital. .
After Shao Xun accepted the order, he didn't even return home. He led his soldiers directly to Shenyuan Pass in the southeast of Yanshi, intending to walk this road himself.
To the south of Luoyang Basin, there are three passes. From west to east, they are Yique, Sheyuan and Dugu.
Among them, Yique Pass, located in the south of Luoyang, is the most important.
Because this pass is the only dangerous point on the road, there are flat valleys in front of and behind the pass, but Yique Pass is quite "dangerous".
Daguguan is located at the north entrance of the valley dozens of miles southeast of Luoyang, and serves as the valley road.
The sides of the valley are steep, the trails are rugged, and it is very easy to ambush, so you generally won’t go here.
Sheyuan Pass is located fifty or sixty miles southeast of Yanshi. The mountain road is dangerous and winding, and there are twelve twists and turns in it, so it is named after it.
After leaving the mountain, you can reach Yangcheng County.
After leaving Yangcheng County, go southeast and march along the Yingshui River. It is relatively convenient and you can go all the way to Yangzhai.
Shao Xun walked the mountain valley road for more than a hundred miles for five days and drew a detailed map.
When we were near Yushanwu, we even saw two earthen cities that had been eroded by wind and rain.
“This is Yangguanju, more than thirty miles northwest of Yangzhai County.” Yu Liang, who followed, said: “In the past, Wang Mang sent Wang Xun and Wang Yi to send millions of troops to Yingchuan. Liu Xiu sent thousands of soldiers to Yangguan. The two Tuchengs facing each other across the Yingshui River were gathered in Yangguan." "Yuan Gui has done his homework." Shao Xun smiled. road.
Yu Liang smiled faintly.
Who has no ambition? Seeing Shao Xun starting to gain momentum step by step, but he did nothing, not to mention how anxious he was.
But he has no focus now and doesn't know where to put his strength.
The Taifu Shogunate sees that there is no room for improvement, so the only choice is to rely on Shao Xun, right?
A while ago in Luoyang, his mother had a long talk with him, and he finally made up his mind.
I follow Shao Xun from time to time. In the eyes of others, I have long been a die-hard Shao Party member. It is a complete waste of time to go to Xuchang to be the boring Dongge wine sacrificer.
So, when Taifu moved to Juancheng, he resigned from the post of offering wine in Dongge and returned to Luoyang.
Recalling the looks in the eyes of the Taifu and the shogunate's assistants at that time, Yu Liang felt ashamed.
But after returning to Luoyang, he found that he had nothing to do, and he felt lost for a long time.
Until a few days ago, Shao Xun took himself with him and traveled across mountains and rivers to explore this post road.
He did his homework in advance in order to become a blockbuster.
"How do you feel after walking this way?" Shao Xun walked to the bank of Yingshui River, ordered someone to measure the depth of the water, and asked casually.
"This road is not easy to walk. Will Wang Mi really come?" Yu Liang asked doubtfully.
"There is progress." Shao Xun laughed and said: "It is always right to be fully prepared. Remember, even if the backup plan is not used in the end, there must be a backup plan. You must not Careless. "
Yu Liang nodded lightly.
"I don't know which road Wang Mi will take. I hope he will take the Fuyuan Road instead of the Yique Road, but things are unpredictable. Who can say for sure." Shao Xun said: "The Emperor also did it. With both hands prepared, Miao Yin led 8,000 troops to guard Yique, and Miao Bo led 5,000 troops to guard Sheyuan. On the other side of Dagong Pass, there were also 3,000 troops led by Si Li Xiaowei Mi Huang, whichever way Wang Mi went. It’s not that easy for everyone. Once the troops are under Guancheng, the spirit will be gone.”
When he entered the palace to ask questions, Wang Yan put forward a detailed plan based on the strengths of each family. plan.
Forbidden troops were sent to guard the three passes of Luonan. They used the mountains, rivers and fortified cities to consume the enemy's troops, supplies and energy. When their fatigue showed, they sent out the main force of the forbidden troops, which had been recharging for a long time. Enter the decisive battle and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
This plan can be said to be very conservative. It fully takes into account the current state of the Forbidden Army. Let them focus on defense. They should first adapt to the atmosphere of the battlefield and see the quality of the enemy's troops before making any calculations.
A decent defensive counterattack tactic, as long as it is executed well, if nothing unexpected happens, the chances of winning are very high. Wang Mi does not even have the chance to reach the outskirts of Luoyang.
In this plan, Shao Xun even saw a hint of hidden murderous intent: if Wang Mi could not attack Zhiyuan Pass, or did not take that route, Shao Xun would be forced to fight the enemy decisively. Because without defeating him, Wang Mi would not be able to get close to Yique Pass.
This old wall lamp! It's a set of tricks to trick people.
But you can’t help it. If you have the ability, don’t take other people’s money, food and materials.
The imperial court sucks your blood to make you work for your life. It is essentially a transaction.
After leaving Yangguanju, Shao Xun went straight to Xiangcheng and Jiacheng areas to conduct investigations.
Xiangcheng County governs seven counties including Xiangcheng, Jiacheng, Wuyang and Kunyang. It is the east gate of Guangchengze and one of the main roads south to Nanyang. It can be said to be an important place.
What’s even better is that the aristocratic family here is not very powerful, so it won’t make a particularly loud noise when it is tossed.
If Wang Mi doesn’t come, it’s hard for him to intervene.
