Chapter 37 The Three Expeditions to the West
The Beihai Rebellion has subsided, Wen Zhong is worried about the matter of the court, and is anxious to return to the court. The pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info then took two partial generals Ji Li, Yu Qing and 3,000 elite soldiers to ride fast horses back to the dynasty first, and the rest of the men and horses were led by Deng Zhong, Xin Huan, Zhang Jie, and Tao Rong to deal with the chores here before returning to the court. A few days later, Wen Zhong traveled to the west gate of Chaoge. The west belongs to gold, on behalf of the soldiers to kill, the Chaoge barracks are located on the west side of the song, the west gate is closer, the expedition and return generally go to the west gate, only the east expedition will go to the east gate, but the east Bohou Jiang, generations of guards in the east, there has never been a rebellion, so it has never walked through the east gate, this time Jiang Wenhuan raised troops, Huang Feihu ordered to stick to it, never sent troops to conquer, so did not go to the east gate to send troops.
Wen Zhong looked at the majestic Chaoge City, took a deep breath, calmed down, and stepped forward to enter the city. At this time, a group of people came out from the Chaoge, and there was a big Zhang character written on the handsome flag, Wen Zhong saw this, and knew that someone was going on the expedition, Wen Zhong waved his hand, and ordered a sentence of "give way" The three thousand troops moved to both sides and gave way to the central avenue. And Wen Zhong took Ji Li and Yu Qing to greet them. The general who came out of the song also noticed the situation ahead, looked at it and saw that it was the Taishi returning to the court, and hurriedly ordered the army to suspend the march, led the vanguard officer to meet him, and walked in front of Wen Zhong, the two of them reflexively dismounted, and saluted Wen Zhong and said, "The last general Zhang Guifang (Fenglin) has seen the Taishi"
"No courtesy" said Wen Zhongye reflexively mounted the black unicorn, gently held up the two, and then said, "General Zhang, where is this going to be levied?" ”
"The last general will be ordered by the Son of Heaven to conquer Xiqi," Zhang Guifang replied.
"Nishiki? Why? Wen Zhong asked
"That's the ......" Zhang Guifang was ordered to crusade against Xiqi, and naturally made a certain understanding of Xiqi, at this time Wen Zhong asked, Zhang Guifang naturally came in its original form, from Ji Chang sent troops to Chongzhou, conquered Chonghou Hu, killed the ministers of the court, to Ji Changxue, Ji Fa succeeded to the throne and proclaimed himself King Wu, and the founding name was Zhou, and then Huang Feihu was anti-business, led the crowd to break through the five passes, and the soldiers surrendered to Xiqi, King Wu gladly accepted, and also named him the founding king of Wucheng.
"It seems that after leaving Chaoge for more than ten years, Chaoge has changed. However, Ji Fa set up himself as a martial king and took in traitors, which is indeed no different from rebellion. Thinking of this, Wen Zhong said to Zhang Guifang: "Since the general is ordered by the Son of Heaven to conquer Xiqi, he can go first. Ji Li, Yu Qing, you two wait for General Zhang's army to pass before taking the sergeants back to the city. ”
"Yes," Ji Li and Yu Qing replied.
"Taishi, this can't be ......," Zhang Guifang hurriedly persuaded.
"You don't have to say much." Wen Zhong interrupted Zhang Guifang's words, and at the same time as he spoke, he fell on the black unicorn.
"After not returning to the court for more than ten years, the old man went into the city first. General Zhang went to take care of himself, and on the day of triumph, the old man personally picked up the wind for the general. Saying that, Wen Zhong clamped the black unicorn between his legs, and the black unicorn rose into the air and flew towards the song city.
"General Zhang, please" After seeing Wen Zhong enter the city, Ji Li took the lead in saying, Zhang Guifang saw that Wen Zhong was not there, and he was not hypocritical, and led an army of 100,000 to the west.
It is only said that Wen Zhong came to Chaoge and met with hundreds of officials in the court to know that the matter was much more serious than he thought, Prime Minister Shang Rong, Heavenly Master Du Yuanmi, Doctor Mei Bo died tragically, Ya Bigan was gouged out of his heart, Doctor Yang Ren was gouged out of his eyes and two princes, a total of four people were blown away by the fairy wind, life and death are unknown, Huang Feihu, Chao Tian Chaolei surrendered to the enemy, and the old ministers of the court only left Wei Ziqi, Wei Ziyan, Lu Xiong and a few others, in addition to the southeast two roads against the four hundred town princes. Wen Zhong listened to the words of the hundred officials, and was silent for a long time, and when Wei Ziqi saw this, he stepped forward and asked, "Taishi, how should we deal with the current form?" ”
"Your Highness doesn't have to worry, Nanbohou Eshun has courage and no strategy, there are not many soldiers, and there are not many generals, so there is no need to worry. As for Dongbohou Jiang Wenhuan...... Ignore it for now. Wen Zhong paused slightly when he said Dong Bohou, and then said four words that people don't need to pay attention to, but fortunately, everyone heard the meaning of Wen Zhong's words, that is, as long as Ping Xiqi didn't say anything else.
Wen Zhong sent the ministers away, came to the study, pushed the door in, and saw a soldier sitting in front of the bookcase reading a book, Wen Zhong was shocked, he was naturally not an ordinary person to come to his study without knowing it. However, when Wen Zhong saw the appearance of the person who came, he hurriedly turned around and closed the door, then bowed down and said, "Disciple, Wen Zhong has seen Master. ”
"Well, get up" Hearing this, the man stretched out his hand and waved it gently, and an invisible force lifted Wen Zhong up.
"I don't know what Master has ordered here." Wen Zhong asked respectfully.
"Poor Dao has been wandering in the world for decades, experiencing all kinds of life, and has never been an official so far, and now he is naturally here to seek a half-official position and experience the life of an official." The Taoist priest said with a smile.
"Hehe, what official position does Master want to do?" Wen Zhong saw that Master was joking, so he just smiled, and then asked respectfully
"You look at it, don't be too small, don't be too big."
"Well, I don't know if it's good for Master to be a chief soldier?" Wen Zhong thought for a while and said
"Okay" The Taoist priest responded, and Wen Zhong hurriedly thanked him for an order, handed it over to the Taoist person, and asked the Taoist to be the chief soldier of Sanshan Pass, and transferred Deng Jiugong back to Chaoge to report on his work.
"It's time for your experience to be over," said the man again.
"But the disciple is not finished." Wen Zhong pondered for a long time and said.
"The death of Zhou Xingshang is the general trend, and it is not something you can change." The Dao man looked at Wen Zhong and said.
"Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven," Wen Zhong said firmly.
"You can do it yourself," said the man, who picked up the order, and disappeared with one step.
The next day, Wen Zhong Jiujie Hall struck the bell, please Di Xin early dynasty, Di Xin knew that Wen Zhong returned, did not dare to slack off, nine section of the hall, Wen Zhong Chen ten measurements, Di Xin on the spot approved eight and a half, of which the ninth cut Fei Zhong You Hun, Di Xin only demoted the two officials to three levels, stay in the court to check, it is considered to be half of the standard, the tenth article abolished Su Hou Da has been rejected by Di Xin. Wen Zhong couldn't bear to persecute the Son of Heaven, so he gave up.
After getting out of the court, Wen Zhong had just returned to the house, and he heard a report from the next person, saying that there was a person who asked to see him in the morning, and he was waiting in the side court at this time. After a while, a person stepped into the lobby, only to see him wearing a scarf on his head, wearing a blue and gray Taoist robe, and wearing bast shoes on his feet. Shen Gongbao was secretly shocked when he saw Wen Zhong, but he didn't expect that Wen Zhong was also a cultivator, and his cultivation was still above himself.
"Poor Dao was ordered by the master to go down the mountain to practice, what do Taoist friends have to do here?" Wen Zhong explained when he heard this, and then asked.
"I don't know where you practice?" Shen Gongbao didn't talk, but asked curiously.
"Don't say," Wen Zhong said, shaking his head
"It's the poor road that is abrupt, the poor road and that Jiang Shang have some festivals, he worships the prime minister in the west, helps Zhou Fa Shang, and the poor road doesn't want him to get his wish, so he came to ask for an official and a half position." Shen Gongbao saw that Wenzhong didn't want to talk about his history, so he stopped asking questions and opened his mouth to explain his intentions.
"Can I trust you?" Wen Zhong stared at Shen Gongbao and asked
"Yes," Shen Gongbao said firmly.
"Okay, I'll believe you once" Wen Zhong said, the next morning, Wen Zhong took Shen Gongbao to go with him, and recommended Shen Gongbao to the Son of Heaven, Di Xin saw it, and Feng Shen Gongbao was the national teacher, and his status was only below Wen Zhong.
After January, Chaoge sent Zhang Guifang's battle report, the two first arrived in Xiqi, won the first battle, and even beheaded several generals in Xiqi, and later Zhang Guifang and Fenglin were defeated by Nezha one after another, and the two of them were injured and waited for help.
"Zhang Guifang has always had a way to break the enemy, but now that he is not the enemy, who should he send?" asked Wei Ziqi.
"Zhang Guifang is just a mortal who knows a few spells, naturally he is not the opponent of the monk Nezha, Poor Dao went to ask the monk to help, and breaking the Western Differences is just around the corner," Shen Gongbao said when he heard this.
"So there is a national teacher." Wen Zhong continued.
Shen Gongbao went to Kowloon Island and asked the Four Immortals of Kowloon Island to go to Xiqi to help Zhang Guifang break the enemy. The four of them were invited to Xiqi to help Zhang Guifang, and initially won several battles in a row, but in the end, the three of them did not use the benefits of the innate spiritual treasures such as Dunlong Pillar, Wu Hook, and Qiankun Circle to send the four people of Jiulong Island, Zhang Guifang and the six people of Fenglin to the god list.
The battle report reached Chaoge, and the court was shocked, "Zhu Aiqing, who else do you think you can send to conquer Xiqi?" Di Xin asked in the court.
"The last general is willing to lead the troops to conquer Xiqi", but it was the veteran Lu Xiong who stood up and recommended himself.
"The old general is too old to be tired of the saddle horse," said Dixin
"Although Zhang Guifang's generation is young and strong, he holds the secret art in his chest, does not know the way of leading soldiers, and is inherently defeated. Lu Xiong insisted on going.
"What does the master think of this ......?" Di Xin asked Wen Zhong.
"The old general is good at leading troops and knows the art of war, so he may really be able to break the enemy, but the old general is old, and he must send two clever soldiers to go to the army together. Chen felt that Fei Zhong and You Hun were more suitable. Wen Zhong replied.
"That's fine." Di Xin agreed, at this time, Fei Zhong Youhun was demoted to three levels, and he could no longer participate in the deliberations of the Nine Sections Palace, and when he knew this, he was shocked and irretrievable, so he had to fight with Lu Xiong.
In the Taishi Mansion, Wen Zhong and Shen Gongbao sat down separately, and Shen Gongbao opened his mouth and asked: "How did Taishi send Lu Xiong and the three of them to conquer Xiqi?" ”
"The three of them are all mortals without any spells, I don't think Jiang Ziya and the others will attack mortals with the body of immortals, so Lu Xiong and the others have hope of winning," Wen Zhong replied truthfully.
"Poor Dao thought that if Jiang Shang's soldiers were against Lu Xiong, they would definitely not care about the difference between immortals and mortals." Shen Gongbao said.
"Alas...... let's treat dead horses as live horse doctors, I hope they won't be so shameless." Wen Zhong sighed helplessly and said,
Lu Xiong three people with a large army to Xiqi, camped, at this time it was the June day, the day was hot like a fire, the sergeant was thin, suddenly the sky blew a cold wind, and then snowflakes, this time it was three days and three nights, Lu Xiong's 100,000 troops were all frozen to death. All the saints shook their heads at this time, Yuan Shi sighed lightly and shook his head helplessly, Xuantian also shook his head when he saw this, and said softly, "Originally, the immortal fate was not thick, so I was afraid that I would suffer from that reincarnation forever."
After the scouts of Bishui Pass found out about this, they hurriedly reported to Han Rong, who did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly wrote a war report to report to Yu Chaoge.
"Hmph, I didn't expect Jiang Shang to be so shameless." Wen Zhong said angrily when he saw the battle report.
"Poor Dao didn't expect that Jiang Shang would do this shameless thing before the war." Shen Gongbao said.
