    The city of Mayi was guarded by Du Yan, the general manager of Shuozhou. Although there were 10,000 soldiers and horses, for the 200,000 troops outside the city, the balance of power was really too great.  When Li Jing ordered all the 15,000 hussars and light cavalry of his headquarters to mount up, march to the city, show off their power, and then shoot an arrow into a letter written in Yi Feng's original words, they would either open the city to let them pass, or they would break through.  After the real threat, Du Yan had no choice at all.  Guard, how to guard? The person opposite is the Crown Prince, how can he disobey?  What's more, not to mention the name of the prince, there are still 200,000 real troops under the city.  After weighing the situation, Du Yan simply ordered the city gate to be opened. Li Jing led the hussars into the city first, and then directly disarmed Du Yan's 10,000 defenders.  Du Yan did not resist. He abandoned his weapons honestly and left Mayi City, an important town outside Yanmen Pass. He then took his 10,000 disarmed troops to report to the logistics camp of the Huaihuang Army and temporarily changed it to a logistics supply unit.  .  After taking Mayi without any blood, Yi Feng led his army to continue southward until Yanmen Pass.  On the march, Liu Wenjing came to find Yi Feng and said to him: "Now that we have forced our way through the pass and disarmed Du Yan's 10,000 troops, this can already be regarded as a hostile battle by Taiyuan. Your Highness is not worried about Taiyuan and us.  Break up and send troops to attack? If we fight with Tai "¡Ìyuan" at this time, I'm afraid we will only make wedding clothes for others! "Your Highness, because of the edict of King Jin" Regarding Liu Wenjing's worries, Yi  Feng Dao was not too worried. Although his actions in Mayi were a bit tough, they were not enough for Taiyuan to declare war on him.  Yang Guang's edict was indeed harsh, but he was definitely not the one who was most alarmed by it.  It should be Yang Xiu and Yang Yong, especially Yang Yong.  Originally, if Yi Feng stood on his side.  Then their strength is the combination of powerful forces, the best in the world.  But if Yi Feng falls to either Yang Guang or Yang Xiu, it will be a huge blow to Yang Yong.  Now that Yi Feng has just broken into Mayi, Taiyuan would definitely prefer to turn the big thing into a trivial matter, unless Yi Feng really plans to fight all the way to Taiyuan.  However, Yi Feng has no intention of turning to Yang Guang now, nor does he intend to fall out with Yang Yong immediately and kill each other. He will not do such a thing that is of no benefit at all.  In his heart, now was not the time to start an immediate fight with Yang Yong.  Seeing Yi Feng, he said nothing.  Liu Wenjing was a little anxious and said hurriedly, "Your Highness, the mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole is behind. Don't be impulsive and end up making wedding clothes for others." Yi Feng smiled and waved, "Don't worry, I understand very well.  . I made every move carefully and thoughtfully." After that, he stopped explaining and left Liu Wenjing to think hard. ??????????????????????????????? He couldn't guess what Yi Feng was thinking or planning, so he could only sigh as he looked at Yi Feng's retreating background.  "I hope it's not picking millet from the fire." This allusion of picking millet from the fire is something Yi Feng once told everyone. It talks about a cunning monkey who cooked the millet in the fire.  Then he tricked the cat into taking it out for him, and the cat burned all the hair on his feet.  But in the end, I didn¡¯t eat any millet seeds.  Taking grain from the fire is simply being used by others to do risky things, paying the price but not receiving the benefits.  He is really worried that His Highness will be taken advantage of by Yang Guang or Yang Yong.  Before Yi Feng¡¯s soldiers and horses arrived at Yanmen Pass, Taiyuan City had already received news that Yang Lin had broken through the pass and captured Mayi.  When the news came back to Taiyuan, the newly ascended emperor Yang Yong was immediately shocked.  Yuan Yan had just returned from Mayi and brought Yang Guang and Yang Xiu's envoys to Yang Lin's army. Moreover, Yang Xiu consecrated Yang Lin as Hebei Daxingtai, and Yang Guang even reported the important news that Yang Lin was conferred as the prince.  These two pieces of news were extremely important, especially the fact that Yang Guang actually appointed Yang Lin as the prince. Yang Yong was even more anxious and restless, and quickly summoned Gao Jun and other officials to Jinyang Palace for discussion.  Before discussing with the officials appointed by Jinyang, Yang Yong secretly discussed with Gao Jiong alone, but they had no choice but to reveal the secret that Yang Lin was actually the son conceived by Yuan's marriage to Yang Guang.  Gao Jiong was shocked when he heard this secret for the first time. He had worked hard for Yang Yong's planning for so many years, but Yang Yong had kept such an important secret from him.  Gao Yan was surprised, but also felt deeply disappointed.  This reminded him of the thought that had occurred in his mind some time ago. At that time, he was already planning to use Yang Yong as a pledge of surrender to Yang Lin.  However, Yang Xiu Turkic regicide usurped the throne, so the plan had to be temporarily terminated.  In Taiyuan City, Gao Jun, He Ruobi and others supported Yang Yong as the emperor in Jinyang Palace. They originally thought that the death of the emperor was not necessarily a bad thing, but who knew that Tiansheng would now reveal such a shocking secret.  An important force on Yang Yong's side, the newly-consecrated crown prince Yang Lin is actually Yang Guang's biological son, and he is also the son of Yang Guang and Yang Yong's first wife who was conceived before marriage.  Is this even harder news to believe?  Two emperors conferred the same titleIt was unprecedented for a man to be a prince, and now he finally understood why.  Gao Qiao stroked his forehead and couldn't say a word.  Yang Lin is not a simple person. If he is just the eldest son of Yang Yong, then he can be established or deposed. But Yang Lin controls the thirty-two states of Youzhou, and now he has to add the two states of Shuo and Wei outside Yanmen Pass.  The entire northern area of ??Daibei and the eastern part of Taihang Mountain is under Yang Lin's control.  Especially Yang Lin still has 300,000 troops in his hands, and there are 200,000 outside Yanmen Pass. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT out of the gate, the Taiyuan court had a bright future. By sending troops south, the civil strife could be quelled immediately.  But now it seems that this is not the case at all. The Taiyuan court immediately became quite dangerous.  Although there are two important passes in the northwest of Taiyuan, Yanmen and Loufan.  But Yifeng still controls Yuzhou. He can attack Xindai from Yuzhou and approach Taiyuan.  The most troublesome thing is that Yi Feng still controls Hengzhou to the east of Taiyuan. It is only separated from Taiyuan by Taihang, but it is connected with Jingxing.  Although Jingxing has a pass, in terms of solid defense, it is definitely not as good as Yanmen and Loufan, not even as good as Taixi and Pingxing Pass, and even worse than Tianmen Three Days in the north of Taiyuan.  As the center of the north, Taiyuan's most important support lies in the dangerous front lines of the Great Wall of Mayi, Yanmen, and Loufan, then the second line of defense of Taiyuan's three passes, and the final defense of Taiyuan Jiancheng Fortress.  But once Hebei was under Yang Lin's control, he didn't have to fight against these important passes at Yanmen Tower. He could directly pass through Jingxing from the side and kill Taiyuan City in one fell swoop.  "Prime Minister, what should I do now?" Yang Yong looked panicked. When he heard Yang Lin broke through, the first thing he thought of was that Yang Lin was finally turning against him. Yang Lin had already defected to his biological father.  An unfamiliar white-eyed wolf.  Gao Jiong took a deep breath and tried to calm down.  "Your Majesty, don't panic. I thought about it for a while. Yang Lin's request to enter the customs is not an excessive request. He is the crown prince conferred by your majesty." "But Yang Guang also consecrated him as the crown prince, and he is still Yang Guang's.  My biological son." Yang Yong shouted.  "The key now is to appease Yang Lin. Now we don't ask him to help us attack Yang Guang and Yang Xiu. We just ask him to stop breaking into Yanmen Pass and station his troops outside Yanmen Pass. That's already good." Yang Yong  But he kept pacing back and forth, turning in circles, "Since Yang Lin has already robbed Ma Yi, handed over Du Yanjun's weapons, and captured them, isn't this considered a fallout? He is willing to surrender at Yanmen Pass."  Stop? " "Yanmen Pass is not that easy to capture. Marshal Han is guarding it. Even if Yang Lin has 200,000 troops, he can't even think about it for three to five months."  He said somewhat impatiently, "Your Majesty must immediately send someone to appease Yang Lin. It is best to downplay the Mayi incident and turn it into a major issue and a trivial matter and let it pass. You must not stir up trouble or intensify conflicts. However, Yanmen Pass  It must be defended well, it is best to be loose on the outside and tight on the inside. On the surface, there must be no tension, but in private, the guard must be strengthened to prevent Yang Lin's troops from entering again. We must also find a way to recruit Yang Lin to Taiyuan."  He could only nod, and the meeting later would not yield any results at all.  In the end, it was decided that Gao Jiong, on behalf of the emperor, would go to Yanmen Pass in person to reward Yang Lin's troops and horses, and then give Yang Lin's officers and soldiers all promotions and titles, reward them with money and food, and then introduce Yang Lin to the court.  At the meeting, Yang Yong was already a little distracted, and the meeting was basically chaired by Gao Jiong alone.  After everyone left, he felt more and more waves of fear coming towards him. In front of his ministers, he could still try to maintain some composure, but now he was alone, he was truly frightened, and he was even more aware of the situation.  the severity of.  He proclaimed himself emperor in Taiyuan. There were 250,000 soldiers and horses in Taiyuan and nearby Yanmen and other pass towns. However, Yanglin outside Yanmen Pass already had 200,000 soldiers. What's more, across the Xindai in the northeast was Weizhou controlled by Yi Feng.  In front of it is only the Taihang Mountains, and a Jingxing, which is Yi Feng's Hengzhou Zhending.  He felt like he was walking on the edge of a cliff, and if he was not careful, he would fall into the abyss.  The relationship between Yang Lin and him was just a show. Now that his father is dead and Yi Feng has elite soldiers and generals in his hands, will he still care about the secret? The joy and excitement of just ascending the throne and becoming the emperor.  Love has completely disappeared in the blink of an eye.  ¡° If I had known now, I really shouldn¡¯t have kept this bastard alive.  At first, he thought that he could use this scoundrel to regain some impression in front of the emperor, but who knows, now this scoundrel has become his biggest threat.  In the west city of Taiyuan, in a mansion that had just been given to Gao Jiong by Yang Yong, Gao Jiong was also pacing around the house, holding a letter in his hand and staring closely at it.  This letter that suddenly appeared on his desk made him feel uneasy. This mysterious letter turned out to be a personal letter from Yang Lin to him.  When he thought that Yang Lin could put the letter on the table in his study without anyone noticing, Gao Jiong felt a chill running down his back. If what Yang Lin had sent was not a letter, butA glass of poisoned wine, or a hidden arrow?  But when he turned his eyes back to the letter, his breathing became rapid again. Yang Lin's proposal in the letter was very tempting!  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
