The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 426 Taiyuan has a lot of food

On the eighth day of October, Guan Yi went to Jinyang in a battle.As the news spread, cities such as Yu County, Langmeng, and Yuci near Jinyang surrendered one after another.

"Da Sima, after counting, there are 30 shi of grain in Jinyang City, and 40 to [-] shi in each of the nearby counties. Including the remaining grain brought by our army, the total is about [-] shi, enough for our army for March consume."

"This amount of food is not enough. After the news spreads, Du Yuankai of Shangdang will definitely take action. At that time, our food supply may be cut off." In Jinyang at this time, the autumn harvest is not long, and the people have enough food. Quite a few, but this time Ji Han didn't come to steal a chicken and then retreat.So this thing of robbing the people of food cannot be done.

"Brother, our army now has nearly 8 people. Even if Du Yuankai wants to cut off my food supply, our army can still fight him."

"Hehe, Guowei, that's not what you said. Our army's food road comes from Fengyi County, and the transportation distance is very long, and it has to cross the river and climb the mountain. Then Du Yuankai can definitely send a small but mobile army. A very strong army harassed our grain roads. The main force guarded the pass and did not fight with me. After a few months like this, it will be difficult for our army to maintain.”

"What does that brother mean?"

"You don't have to worry about food for the time being. I have a solution. It's the behavior of our army. It can't be trapped in Jinyang City now. We must move quickly."

"Great Sima, please show me."

"Leave 1 people to guard Jinyang, and the other 6 people will immediately go south to Jiexiu, and close the southern gate of Taiyuan County first!"

"As ordered!"

On October 7, after initially stabilizing the situation in Taiyuan County, Ji Han's army began to move.On October [-], [-] main forces arrived in Qi County.

"Youxian King, this place is the pasture that Cao Mengde allocated to you before, right?"

"That's right, I hate that the miscellaneous people in the middle and left are greedy and keep persecuting me. I had no choice but to move westward to the foot of Luliang Mountain. But it is also like this that made the right side of my Xiongnu the farthest from Da Sima. It has become the closest to Da Sima."

"So, there is always a definite number in the changing world. King Youxian, you are determined to be the great Shanyu of the Xiongnu, so you should be more broad-minded. You can't treat the Xiongnu in the middle and the left with the same expression just now."

"Thank you, Da Sima, for reminding me. It's just Da Sima. Now the middle part and the left part are actually two parts, but they are all under the control of that old man Liu Bao. Xiao Wang..."

"Hehehe, that's it, King Youxian. Now I am busy leading the army south to block Du Yuankai's army, and I really don't have the energy to help. Besides, what we in Huaxia pay attention to is courtesy first and soldiers first. Why don't you send an envoy to Lishi to inform Then Liu Bao said. Ask him to find time for an interview. If this guy comes, then everything will be easy to talk about. If he doesn’t come, hehe, there are still 7 people in my army on the west bank of the Yellow River. By then they will cross the river In the future, I won’t go over Luliang Mountain, but go west and walk along the line of Lishi..."

"Okay, let's do as Da Sima said."

After Liu Meng was arranged, Guan Yi said to Zhao Yi: "Guowei, you lead the army and move on, Bo Ding, lead the bodyguards and follow me to a place."

What Guan Yi was going to was the tomb of Prince Yun, Prince Situ of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Needless to say about Wang Yun's life, this Hanchen who had a chance to save the Eastern Han Dynasty completely destroyed the hope of the Eastern Han Dynasty's revival because of personality problems, and even caused his family to be liquidated by Li Jue and others, destroying the three clans.

Fortunately, at that time, what Li Jue, Guo Si and others could control was the area in Guanzhong, and there were no princes and birds in the Guandong side.Therefore, all the Wang family members who followed Wang Yun in Chang'an lost their heads, while all the Wang family members who stayed in their hometown survived.

When Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty settled down with the support of Cao Cao, he still pursued Wang Yun's credit, made his grandson Marquis of Ting, and paid for Wang Yun's bones to be moved back to his hometown in Qi County, Taiyuan County for burial.

Guan Yi went to pay homage to Wang Yun's tomb at this time, in fact, with one meaning: Taiyuan Wang, I already have this attitude, why don't you hurry up and come over?
In the current era, the Taiyuan Wang family is much weaker than their other relative, the Langya Wang family.On the basis of history, throughout the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Wang family of Langya had always been much more prominent than the Wang family of Taiyuan.However, at the end of the day, it was the Taiyuan Wang family who became the five surnames and seven Wangs.There are many reasons for this situation, but two of them are very important: First, there are many daughters of the Wang family in Taiyuan, who are fair, beautiful and well educated, and all kinds of marriages are very successful!It has received the collective support of the major families in Hebei.Second, because it is close to the grassland, many foreign ethnic groups moved southward and became Sinicized, and they unconsciously moved closer to the Taiyuan Wang family when taking the Han surname.After these foreign races changed their surnames to the Wang family, for the sake of their own family's prestige, they would try their best to raise the reputation of the Taiyuan Wang family...

"Caomin Wang Yi, pay homage to the great Sima of the Han Dynasty. The great Sima, who was in the midst of his army, was able to spare no time to come to pay homage to the tomb of his great-grandfather. The whole Wang family is deeply impressed."

"Hehehe, brother Zhongde doesn't have to be like this. Wang Situ is my loyal minister of the big man. Now that the big man has returned to Taiyuan, since my emperor can't come in person for the time being, I will come to worship now."

After the hypocritical politeness, Guan Yi began to take the initiative to turn the topic to the real thing: "I am a big man who wants to dominate the world and send troops to the east. Although this move is in line with the righteousness of the world, it is to make the people of Taiyuan suffer from military disasters. Zhong De The family has not been affected, has it?"

"Fortunately, the military discipline of the army under Da Sima's command is very good, and the grass-roots people don't feel any discomfort."

"That's good. Uh, this Zhongde, to be honest, in order to avoid the two pincers arranged for me by Du Yuankai's Bingzhou and Sizhou, I had to lead the army to look through Luliang Mountain. The food road is very unstable. So, I don’t know why Zhongde taught me?”

"Da Sima, our royal family in Taiyuan is the descendant of Duke Jian. His family motto is to be loyal to the current dynasty. The great-grandfather of Caomin, the son of Master Shigong, is loyal to the Han Dynasty. Uncle Yanyun Gong (Huainan Yirenli) Wang Ling, who was wiped out by Sima Yi, fought for the Cao family until the last moment when he ate Wei Lu. And I, Wang Yi, now eat food from the Jin Kingdom."

I bother!Don't talk about him, Wang Yun, let's talk about Wang Ling, why did you fight until the last moment for Cao Wei?He didn't fight a single battle, and surrendered directly when he saw Sima Yi coming.He thought Sima Yi would let him go if he just surrendered, but he didn't know that the old thief who watched eagles and wolves was so ruthless.And what about you, Wang Yi?Hehe, if it weren't for me, you would first seek refuge with Shi Le in the future, and then go to the Eastern Jin Dynasty to seek refuge with the Langya Wang clan because Shihu is too cruel.

"Well, Yi is very grateful for the loyalty of the Wang family. Then, how about Yi enlisting Zhongde here as the prefect of Taiyuan for my big man? In this way, Zhongde will be a rich man."

"Hey, it's not because Wang Yi is shameless, but because of the tens of thousands of people in Taiyuan County, he has no choice but to resign himself to it."

"Good! Then it's settled. So, can Zhongde teach me?"

"Da Sima, Jinyang City and its surroundings are all valley basins in the mountains, and the output is quite a lot every year. And because Wang Shizhi has guarded Bingzhou for the past three years, he has strictly investigated smuggling. The commercial roads in Bingzhou have actually been cut off. Yes. This caused the warehouses of the major families in the state to be filled with grain but could not be exchanged for other goods..."

"So that's it, I understand. Then, how about leaving this matter to Zhongde? I want 100 million shi of grain in advance. The price is easy to negotiate. If you don't want money, I will give you a [-]% discount on all Fuxingshe products!"

"The next official takes orders, and he will live up to the entrustment of the great Sima!"

Claiming to be dismissed so soon?You guys are really an official fan.Huh?Why don't you guys leave?
"Elder Sima, I have one more request from the lower officials."

"Wang... the eunuch, please tell me."

"There is a woman in the lower official family, she is twenty-nine years old, and she has admired Da Sima for many years..."

Tsk tsk... "Ah, haha, this one, Zhong De, I'm already 39 years old, I'm afraid it's not suitable?"

"Where, so what if Da Sima, the hero of the world, is 99 years old?"

Can you be any more shameless? !Hey, no matter what, before completely defeating Du Yuankai's Bingzhou Army, as long as the source of food can be stabilized.It's not impossible to make a little sacrifice.

"That's it, I'll take care of this matter. It's just that our army is still fighting, so let's discuss the details after the war."

"Of course. If that's the case, I'll hurry to get to work. Don't worry, Da Sima, within one month, one million grains of grain will definitely be sent to the treasury designated by Da Sima!"
