He had originally been forced to go south to fight against the rebel army. He was full of confidence. He thought that he brought 120,000 soldiers to fight against the rebel army. As long as the troops went south, the generals in Guanzhong would inevitably  Watching the wind and falling, the switch greets.  Unexpectedly, when he rushed all the way to Puzhou, the Guancheng garrison on the other side of the river showed no reaction at all.  He sent someone to write a letter to the guard on the opposite side, but the result was like nothing, and there was still no response.  Now He Ruobi was annoyed, so he gathered his troops and began to attack the key point forcibly. However, although Pujin Pass was regarded as the side entrance of Tongguan, it was by no means worse than Tongguan in terms of danger.  A Yellow River separates Puzhou from Tongzhou, and only an iron cable bridge connects the two sides. However, there is a bridge-in-a-fort on the sandy island in the river, making this iron cable bridge have three bridge forts.  One on each side of the bridge, and a fort in the middle of the bridge.  Now the three forts of Pujin Pass are all in the hands of the defenders of Pujin Pass. It is absolutely easy to defend the difficult position. One man can guard the gate and ten thousand others can't open it.  Although He Ruobi was fierce, he was still unable to do anything in the face of such a fortress. After a fierce attack, he made no progress at all.  At this time, He Ruobi began to inquire about the name of the guard.  Originally, he was not even interested in knowing who the other party was.  In his opinion, the general in the court can make him care.  There are only a few, Gao Jiong and Yang Su can be counted as one.  In addition, Shi Wansui and Han Sengshou could also be counted, but he really didn't take the rest of them seriously.  It was originally thought that Shi Wansui and Yang Su were in Longyou.  Gao Jiao, Han Sengshou, lives in Taiyuan. Who else in Pujin Pass can stop him, and who has the courage to stop him.  But in the end, we really encountered such a difficult situation.  "Who is the general guarding Pujin Pass?" "The puppet emperor has newly appointed Zuowei General Xue Shixiong." His subordinates reported.  At the same time, I shook my head secretly and fought with him for a long time. As a result, I still don¡¯t even know his name.  Is this really the style of a general? It's too underestimating the enemy.  He Ruobi thought for a moment and shook his head, "I've never heard of it. What's your background?" Yang Xiong on the side couldn't stand listening anymore. He had never seen such an arrogant person. Although Xue Shixiong had a low position before, he still had a reputation for bravery in the court.  of.  Yang Xiong had heard Xue Shixiong's name a long time ago, and Xue Shixiong was not an ordinary military attach¨¦.  Xue Shixiong, courtesy name Shiying, was born in Fenyin, Hedong Province. His family moved to Guanzhong in his early years.  His father Xue Hui served as a Zhou official and went to Jingzhou as governor. After the founding of the Sui Dynasty, he was granted the title of Duke of Wuyin County.  The leader of Caoqu Supervisor can be regarded as a senior official in the early years of the country.  Xue Shixiong, who was born in a family of officials, has been as smart as Emperor Wu of Zhou since he was seventeen years old.  Pay homage to the commander-in-chief.  After becoming emperor, he had many military exploits and was promoted to the third division of Yitong and the right bodyguard, chariot and cavalry general.  He is already an actual military general of the fifth rank, and his rank is not low.  Commanding more than a thousand soldiers and horses in a chariot and cavalry mansion.  Yang Xiu usurped the throne and immediately made Xue Shixiong the general of Zuowei, the governor of Tongzhou and the general of Pujinguan Town.  He was given full authority over the east side entrance of Guanzhong, which shows the trust in him.  Moreover, Yang Xiong also knew that Xue Shixiong, who was less than fifty this year, was in his prime, but he already had five very brave sons, including Wan Shu, Wan Shu, Wan Jun, Wan Che and Wan Bei, especially Wan Jun and Wan Che.  He Ruobi is the best among the disciples of the generals in the capital. It is really inappropriate for He Ruobi to know nothing about it.  "Just a nobody." He Ruobi snorted disdainfully.  Yang Xiong said, "I think that Pujin is dangerous and the Xue family and his son are brave. It will be difficult to attack by force for a while, and there will be many injuries. It is better to send people to surrender. If the Xue family and his son can be recruited to surrender, they will avoid the loss of the force attack and add another man."  "General." He Ruobi couldn't listen at all. He was blocked by an unknown person, and his reputation as a famous general was lost.  Especially this time, he usurped Han Sengshou's command and led the troops south. At that time, his chest was beating loudly. But if the first battle south was a failure, what would his reputation be?  Therefore, he insisted on beating him, and he had to beat the shit out of the man named Xue to show the crown prince what he was capable of.  Next, He Ruobi sent people to attack, raid, and try various methods of smuggling, but in the end, Xue Shixiong resolved them one by one. He fought for a long time, not to mention taking Pujin Pass, and even the bridgehead on the east coast.  Couldn't win either.  The angry He Ruobi blew his beard and stared, becoming more and more stubborn to attack and kill Xue.  Yi Feng sent a letter asking He Ruobi to consider sending a partial division upstream to sneak across the river, and then harass the west bank to cover the attack.  After He Ruobi saw it, he didn't care at all and threw it aside.  He Ruobi's every move was truthfully and quickly transmitted back to Yi Feng. Regarding He Ruobi's domineering behavior, Yi Feng just smiled and threw it aside.  He could give He Ruobi some more time. If He Ruobi insisted on going his own way but was unable to break through, then the last person he could not answer would be He Ruobi himself, and then he would have enough reasons to change his general.  At this time, Yifeng entered Hanoi from Jiangzhou via Zhiguanxing, crossed the Heyang Bridge, and set foot on the land of Luoyang, Henan.  &nbAfter crossing the river, Yi Feng first entered Jinyong City in the northwest of Luoyang City.  Jinyong City was originally a city built during the reign of Emperor Ming of the Han, Wei and Wei dynasties. It was modeled after the Three Bronze Bird Towers in Yecheng. It was similar to the White Tiger Tower in Huaihuang, which was also modeled after the Bronze Bird Towers. Yi Feng felt a special sense of intimacy when he saw it.  .  When this city was first established, it was originally an acropolis of Luoyang City. During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, it was one of the four towns in Henan.  When it was first established, it was originally intended to be a strong outer fort and acropolis for Luoyang City, based on the Shanbei River, so it was also called Luoyang Fort.  But in fact, during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, this Jinyong City became a cold palace where the deposed royal family members and concubines of the harem were imprisoned in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.  During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, too many princes and concubines were imprisoned here.  This three-city Taicheng building connected from the north to the south has the name of Tianyong City, and the beautiful contiguous city with the three towers of Jingjin, Jintai and Jade Tower has become synonymous with Leng Palace.  Jinyong City has many towers and flying pavilions all over the city. When viewed from the ground, they look like clouds.  But in fact, the most important role of Jinyong City is its military role. There are three small cities, each with its own wall.  It is connected as a whole group of buildings, facing Mang Mountain in the north.  It is adjacent to the big city in the south, and the city walls are broad and solid.  The terrain is dangerous and it is the military fortress of Luoyang.  After the Western Jin Dynasty, the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms fought in chaos, and the Northern and Southern Dynasties fought against each other. Jinyong City became a battleground for military strategists during the fierce battle in Luoyang.  Even when fighting for the land of Luoyang, Henan, Jin Yong City was even more important than the beaten Luoyang City.  During the Five Hus and Sixteenth Kingdoms, Luoyang City in the Wei and Jin Dynasties was completely destroyed, but the status of Jinyong City became more and more important.  When the Northern Wei Dynasty unified the north, the capital was moved to Luoyang.  Vigorous efforts were made to rebuild the city of Luoyang, and Luoyang recovered again. There were 190,000 households in the city and it reached unprecedented prosperity.  Jinyong City also became one of the four towns in Henan that protected Luoyang in the Henan region of the Northern Wei Dynasty.  Later, at the end of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Eastern and Western Wei Dynasties repeatedly fought for control in Henan. Among them, the most important battles of Heyin and Mangshan destroyed the great capital city of Luoyang in the Northern Wei Dynasty.  At this time, Jinyong City became an important military location in the Central Plains region that the two sides repeatedly competed for.  Until more than twenty years ago.  The Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Qi Dynasty, and Luoyang was finally away from the war.  Emperor Xuan of the Northern Zhou Dynasty began to order the construction of Luoyang Palace twenty years ago. The newly built Luoyang Palace was huge in scale and extremely luxurious.  Although it was only built for a year, Emperor Xuan died before it was completed, and Yang Jian came to power as regent.  The construction of Luoyang was immediately stopped.  However, since the founding of the Sui Dynasty, Luoyang has been in peace for nearly twenty years.  As the center of the world, it prospered rapidly.  Although the population of Luoyang City has increased significantly.  The city was not planned and built accordingly, so it seemed a bit messy, but Luoyang City was still prosperous, and a heavy army was always stationed in Jinyong City.  Historically, after Yang Guang succeeded to the throne, he began to vigorously build the eastern capital of Luoyang and moved the capital to Luoyang. He did not choose to build the capital at the location of the old capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Luoyang Palace built by Emperor Xuan of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.  Instead, just like when Yang Jian built Daxing City, he planned and built a completely new Luoyang City eighteen miles southwest of the old Luoyang City.  Later, the Tang Dynasty continued to expand on its foundation, and eventually became the huge Luoyang City of Sui and Tang Dynasties.  Jinyong City became famous again at the end of the Sui Dynasty. Li Mi, the leader of the Wagang Army, besieged Luoyang, which was guarded by Wang Shichong. He used Jinyong City as his base camp and established the Wei Kingdom in Jinyong City, calling himself Wei Gong.  Wang Shichong later proclaimed himself emperor, and the capitals of the two emperors were only twenty-five miles apart. This can be regarded as one of the great wonders in history.  Jinyong City has gone through hundreds of years. In its early years, it was a cold palace where the royal family and concubines of the Wei and Jin Dynasties were imprisoned. Later, it became an important military fortress in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. However, this Taige-style city in the Han and Wei Dynasties was not just a fortress.  The Sanlian City has twelve city gates, which are majestic and majestic. At the same time, because it is close to the capital, it can also be regarded as a royal palace and garden, and the interior is very well built.  Yang Jian visited Luoyang several times and lived in Jin Yong City.  After Yifeng entered Jinyong City, he stayed in the same place where Yang Jian had lived. It was a large palace with a back garden. There was a large bamboo forest in the garden, with branches and leaves whirling and green. Yi Feng liked it very much when he saw it.  .  In the afternoon, he had a bamboo couch moved to the bamboo forest, and a coffee table was placed next to it. He would write and read here, and a red brush would grind his ink and add fragrance to it.  When you are tired, take a rest on the bamboo couch for a while.  Now, Yi Feng is lying on the bamboo couch, thinking about the arrangements after entering Luoyang.  The soldiers and horses of Beiya have already taken over Luoyang, and they have also divided their troops to take over the prefectures and counties in Hedong, Henan, and Hebei. Now, he almost controls these places.  Next, it should be possible to formally abolish the three-level general control in the control area, implement a provincial, state and county system, and replace all local civil servants and generals with their own people.  Will Gao Jiong and others obstruct this? If Gao Jiong is smart, he should avoid confrontation with himself, but he also knows that it is difficult to say accurately about this kind of thing.  It is not a question of whether Gao Jiong is loyal to him. Since Gao Jiong is now the minister, in charge of the ministerial affairs department and is the prime minister, then as always, there will always be a conflict between the king's power and the prime minister's power. This is not between him and Gao Jiong.  It is a matter between two people, but it is the nature of this system where the emperor and the prime minister rule the world together.?problem.  Gao Jiong's ability is still very strong, there is no doubt about it.  Yi Feng does need a capable prime minister like Gao Jiong to assist him, but on the other hand, Yi Feng also has his own ideas about governance and even has experience from later generations. He can come up with some that have been proven through hard work and can avoid  Things that avoid many detours are implemented, but it is often difficult for his ideas and plans to be praised by Gao Qiao.  How to resolve the conflict with Gao Jiong?  Removing Gao Jiong?  Yi Feng shook his head. Gao Jiong cannot be dismissed now. Gao Jiong is a benchmark and a representative and leading figure of the old party. If he is expelled from the court at this time, it will definitely cause a chain reaction.  A large number of old parties in the court, even a large number of local officials, and wealthy families are still extremely powerful. Yi Feng needs their support. If they are not handled properly, the results will be very bad.  There is a lack of a character who is capable enough to fight against Gao Jiong. It is best that such a character does not come from the Huaihuang family. This is the best. It can greatly weaken Gao Jiong's influence, and there is no need to worry about the old party and other affiliations.  officials overinterpreted.  This matter is just like how Yi Feng still has to support Yang Yong. Some things seem very simple, but a simple step is not easy to take.  Before quelling Yang Guang and Yang Xiu, Yi Feng needed Yang Yong's banner. Without Yang Yong, Yi Feng would have fewer favorable conditions than Yang Guang and Yang Xiu.  As the saying goes, unite all those who can unite. Although Yang Yong is mediocre and incompetent, in this era, his status as the former crown prince is indeed very important, and even his status as grandson is based on it.  To veto Yang Yong is to veto him, and legitimacy is really important in this era.  If we can¡¯t find a suitable person to replace Gao Jiong, we can¡¯t touch Gao Jiong for the time being.  There is another thing that is also worrying Yi Feng, and that is the march into Yangzhou.  Wei Chong led Goguryeo to send troops, which was unexpected. As a result, Yi Feng had to send Li Jing to lead troops to deal with the Goguryeo people unplanned.  In addition, He Ruobi was leading his troops to attack Guanzhong, and Yi Feng was already fighting on two sides, one in Puzhou, Hedong, and the other in Pingzhou, Hebei.  More than 200,000 troops were sent to the two fronts. If more troops were sent to the Jianghuai River, it would be a third-front battle.  Fighting on multiple fronts like this is very risky.  Not only do more soldiers and horses need to be mobilized, but more food and grass also need to be mobilized.  Grain and grass are not a problem for the time being, but transporting grain and grass is a big problem. Each route of troops and horses requires a large number of civilians to transport grain and grass to supply ordnance. Three routes of troops and horses require the mobilization of a large number of civilians at the same time.  But now is the season of summer harvest and autumn plowing. He has just dismissed hundreds of thousands of people, and it is impossible to recruit them again immediately.  Moreover, a three-pronged war requires the deployment of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, plus hundreds of thousands of civilians to transport grain and grass. Although the population of Guandong is large, this is equivalent to a people's war under Yi Feng's rule. It has great impact on economic production.  The impact is huge.  How did Yang Guang fail?  There were many factors, but among them he repeatedly conquered Goguryeo and mobilized a large number of soldiers, horses and civilians, which caused the people to be deprived of production and trapped in hard labor, followed by famine and then rebellion.  This is just like the Northern and Southern Dynasties, where fighting was fought, and everything was desolate, and rebellions broke out at every turn.  (To be continued)
