Royal road

Chapter 295

The emperor granted rewards and moved the capital to Jinyang together.In addition to becoming a general, governor, and Sikong, like Gou Xi, Liang Feng was also named a county prince, with [-] households in the city.Duke of the county is the highest title of different surnames in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. With the county as the country, the three armies can be housed. The title is hereditary, and the rank is only below the king of the county.Such a reward simply gave Liang Feng enough face.Except for one thing, his fief is nowhere else but Shangdang.

This letter put Liang Feng's basic lifeline in front of the puppet Han.Not to mention the title of "Leading Sili Captain".Sizhou is no better than the other places, and there is no governor. Only Sili Xiaowei has [-] counties and [-] counties under his jurisdiction.The problem is that half of Sizhou is now in the hands of the Xiongnu. The purpose of this title is self-evident.

An edict completely threw the mess of Sizhou to himself, and the little emperor himself wanted to coerce the courtiers and go south to Shouchun.If other people encounter this matter, they may be annoyed, and even refuse to accept the order.Liang Feng himself didn't care that much.It's okay to leave.When the emperor moved the capital, it was not only the small imperial court that moved, but also all the families in the Northland.Only when this group of dragging officials and gentry get rid of them, can his New Deal be implemented and the situation in Sizhou be reorganized.

As for the Xiongnu, as long as they don't give up Bingzhou for a day, they still have to face each other. Liang Feng was already prepared.

However, there was one thing that still displeased him: "Your Majesty transferred Linghu Kuang and asked him to accompany Shouchun."

Linghu Kuang was sent by him to Luoyang to pose.Anyway, the emperor is surrounded, as a subject, he should also send some soldiers and horses to escort him.Unexpectedly, the little emperor stopped him when he said so.There are only so many generals available in Bingzhou, how can someone pry a corner casually.

As soon as these words came out, the officials below relaxed.The attitude of the master determines the strategic direction.If Liang Feng was dissatisfied with the emperor's award, they must rack their brains to find a way out of this predicament.But now he didn't ask about the rewards, instead he complained about the emperor taking away his generals.If you are young, you value your subordinates; if you are big, you are not afraid of hypocrites.Either way, it's enough to be reassuring.

Zhang Bin smiled slightly: "Since the emperor has an order, how can General Linghu not obey? There are two ways to resolve this matter. One is to push the boat along the river and order General Fox to move the capital with His Majesty. After all, Shouchun is thousands of miles away from Bingzhou. Someone who is by His Majesty's side can know the court's movements."

The meaning of these words is very clear, it is to let Linghu Kuang go to Shouchun as an undercover agent.No matter what, Linghu Kuang was rescued twice by Liang Feng. He is loyal and brave, and he lives in Bingzhou for generations, so he can be trusted.And as a general of the Bingzhou line, he may not be able to be reused by the little emperor, so it can show Liang Feng's kindness even more.With this kind of eyes and ears, it is easy to detect the movement of the court.

Liang Feng frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head: "At the time when he is employing people, Mr. Yuan has a straightforward personality and is not good at plotting. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to let Shouchun go."

Being a spy requires talent, and Linghu Kuang just has a straightforward personality.Don't talk about whether you can get out the secret, if you don't have a wink, you may be harmed by the group of people in the court.Besides, moving the capital involved a lot, and there might be some political struggles in Shouchun. As a member of the Bingzhou lineage, he was very likely to be involved.

Hearing what Liang Feng said, Zhang Bin said again: "If you don't care about Shouchun, my lord can send [-] more soldiers and horses, but he said he was worried about the long distance and escorted His Majesty to move the capital."

There are only 1000 people, and the little emperor can still swallow it cheekily, but a total of [-] elite soldiers is another concept.Not to mention whether the little emperor has such a big appetite, even Gou Xi who is accompanying him and Liu Zhun who is stationed in Shouchun will not easily let Bingzhou soldiers and horses enter their territory.Therefore, the more soldiers sent, the easier it will be returned by the emperor.Even if he really followed to the ground, he could say that he had completed the task entrusted by the governor, and he had to return to Bingzhou to return to his command.In this way, who can stop it?

Hearing this, Liang Feng understood: "Shouchun Luyao, you should send more people to escort you. You can also bring some food and grass. Your Majesty will not bother you when you return."

Taking food and grass on the road is also for self-protection.In case of special circumstances, you can still take care of your own family.As for the little emperor, it is likely to be unreliable in all likelihood, and it is better to plan early.

This is completely ignoring the matter of moving the capital, Zhang Bin said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, General Linghu will return safely. It's just that Shangdang still needs to make further arrangements."

Now that Shangdang has become the fief of Liang Feng's own family, it would not be appropriate to appoint someone else as the eunuch. At least Zu Ti, the temporary eunuch, needs to change places.

Liang Feng nodded: "Zu Changshi has an attack against the enemy this time, and he should be rewarded with a title. He was promoted to General Fenwu and also led Henan Yin."

Zu Ti once served as the director of Sizhou and is quite familiar with Sizhou.Liang Feng himself led the captain of Sili, this Henan Yin, naturally he had to be handed over to a reliable person.Sizhou is in great turmoil right now, and there is an urgent need for a ruler with both courage and ability. Who else is more suitable for this position than Zu Ti, who went north to fight against the enemy alone?

After all, he didn't stop talking, and continued: "There are also passes around Luoyang, which need to be re-armed. After the spring of next year, we will focus on gathering the lost land of the three counties of Henan, Xingyang, and Hanoi."

This is to compete with the Xiongnu for the territory of Sizhou.Although Sizhou has suffered several wars, it is densely populated after all, and there are still many fertile fields and cities.Once the ground is stabilized, it is suitable to recuperate and recuperate in Comparable Bingzhou.At that time, it will be connected with several counties near Yecheng, and it will be a big piece of land.

However, the Xiongnu may not let the fat go to the mouth so easily.It's a matter of great importance and should be carefully arranged.

Because of this sudden edict, Liang Feng spent a lot of time in the front office.However, when he returned to the backyard, the familiar figure had not yet returned.After a battle is over, the things that need to be dealt with are equally complicated.The surprise attack on Pingyang only cost more than 200 cavalry, but the shortage of tiger and wolf cavalry is already serious, so it is not a solution to just get in and out.After Yiyan came back, he didn't take much rest, and went directly to the training.

Fortunately, many war horses were captured in the First Battle of the Shangdang, and some rout troops were intercepted, which was regarded as a return of capital.Saving the people in troubled times requires far more cost than simply fighting for territory.But this kind of business, as long as he has the ability, he is afraid that he will still do it.

After several days of continuous rotation, Liang Feng's energy was a little too much.After hastily eating and washing, I went to bed and rested.Half asleep, half awake, suddenly felt that the side sank, and someone squeezed up.Anyone who can enter his room in the middle of the night can figure out who it is.Liang Feng didn't even open his eyes, he leaned into the opponent's arms, ready to continue to sleep.

Unexpectedly, the man pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "I heard that General Linghu was recruited by the emperor..."

"Hmm..." Liang Feng answered vaguely.

Hearing this non-painful nasal sound, the man's shoulders tensed, he held back for a while, and finally couldn't help whispering in his ear: "What if I am begged by the emperor?"

Sleeping in a daze, and still being harassed like this, Liang Feng snorted: "He thinks beautifully..."

Just half a sentence, without beginning or end, but decisive.In the darkness, Yiyan stretched out his whole body, hugged the person in his arms firmly, like stroking a big cat, and gently patted the other person's back, allowing him to fall asleep again.

■

After only staying in Luoyang City for half a month, Linghu Kuang felt physically and mentally exhausted.At first, the little emperor treated him with courtesy, added officials, bestowed titles, and showed his intention to reuse him.How to say that the other party is also the emperor of Jin Dynasty, although Linghu Kuang is not very happy to go to Shouchun, he still abides by the way of monarch and minister.

However, after Bingzhou sent 1000 more soldiers and horses to escort him, the little emperor immediately changed his attitude, and looked at him with a bit of indifference.Now Linghu understood completely.What the emperor valued was never him, but the soldiers in his hands.When there are [-] people, he is a puppet that can be manipulated by others; when it becomes [-], he becomes a burden that cannot be touched.Since you can't collect it for your own use, what's the effort?

If he was in prison back then, or fled in defeat.Will the emperor look at him more?I'm afraid it's just like today.

Without that bit of sincerity and fear, Linghu Kuang calmed down instead.He also saw clearly the embarrassment and embarrassment behind the only glamor left in Luoyang City.All the ministers have big carts and small carts, pulling everything that can be pulled away, and want to go south with the royal driver.It seems that Luoyang has completely lost the meaning of existence to them.

Just to get out of the city earlier, I don't know how many disputes happened on the street.The bandits inside and outside the city took advantage of this opportunity to loot wantonly.It wasn't until the soldiers and horses sent by Gouxi entered the city, and finally swept through the large and small warehouses in the city, and the team to move the capital, that the trip took place.

For more than ten days before and after, no one paid any attention to the people in the city.And this last chaos seems to have taken away their last hope.All those who could still walk silently packed their bags, preparing to keep up with the brigade moving the capital.However, Gou Xi sent only [-] soldiers.Not to mention the common people, even many small nobles can only follow the team far away, hoping that they can survive this long journey of thousands of miles and reach the new capital far in the south.

Linghu Kuang also led the troops and followed in the team.He has seen the situation when Sima Teng withdrew from Bingzhou, but today's tragedy is even worse than back then.It's just that the motorcade of the emperor and the minister stretched for more than ten miles.But all the troops, no matter whether they belong to him, Gou Xi's subordinates, or the private soldiers of many noble families, are only responsible for protecting this group of nobles.The rest of the soldiers are just falling at the end of the team, and they are just bait to attract bandits.

Every day, I don't know how many people are left behind, and these are probably just the beginning.In the next few months, it was the tide of the southward migration of the gentry.It's just that the fate of these people is even more difficult to say.

If they stayed in Sizhou and took refuge with the lord, they might still have a chance.

Before he knew it, Linghu Kuang's thoughts changed.He began to feel that maybe the Son of Heaven was not as reliable as he imagined.That is just a ten-year-old kid who has just succeeded to the throne, has not made an inch of merit, and can't even defend Luoyang City where he lives.But the main character is different.It can make Bingzhou, which is deeply in the hands of thieves, reorganize, and naturally it can also make Sizhou settle down.Only the lord is the hope of all of them!

The pain of migration is not only boring, but also dangerous.Not long after walking, the team moving south encountered the enemy.This time the enemy seems to be Wang Mi's main force, and there are quite a few of them.Just as Linghu Kuang was about to form an army to defend against the enemy, he received an order from the emperor.

The emperor ordered him to break the back cover.

Order his 6000 troops to deal with the enemy's army of at least [-] alone.

The last thought in my heart also cooled down.Linghu Kuang accepted the order expressionlessly.He was also from the Bingzhou lineage, so he had no fear of meeting these gangsters.What's more, there are six thousand soldiers delivered by the lord beside him.

Guard in the back road and set up an army formation.Linghu Kuang held on for two days, and spent another day defeating the enemy's main force.Seeing that the task was completed, he did not follow up with the front army again, but turned his head and arranged for people to gather up the civilians who were affected by the flames of war.

"You can't catch up with the army. Even if you catch up, there will be no one to protect you. Why don't you go back to Sizhou together with me! The one who is stationed in Sizhou now is the envoy Liang of Bingzhou. The envoy will definitely keep you safe!"

Standing in the crowd, Linghu Kuang said loudly.Liang Shijun's name, even across the Taihang Mountains, has been introduced to Sizhou territory early.Every year, I don't know how many refugees and people go north along the Xing Road.Hearing this, the crowd went into a commotion.Less than ten days after leaving Luoyang, I encountered bandits several times.Can they really keep up with the emperor?Will the Son of Heaven really protect them?

Most of these people have experienced the siege of Luoyang.He hated and feared the Huns who were close at hand.But likewise, they did not have the slightest trust in the soldiers and horses of the imperial court.Following the army, I just don't want to be left in Luoyang.Now, their homeland has another guardian.A benevolent envoy who can defeat the Huns!

"We would like to go back to Sizhou with the general! Go back to Luoyang!" Someone in the team shouted.

"Go back to Sizhou! Back to Luoyang!"

Scattered shouts became Shocking Mountain Shouts.Linghu Kuang took a deep breath.That's right, their homeland is only in the north!

On that day, the long migration team was split in two.Half of them continued south and fled to the new capital Shouchun.The other half returned to the dilapidated city in a mighty manner.
