. Shumilou.CoM.Shumilou.Co
Knowing that Pei Ju was reasonable, but Yang Guang, who seemed to be a little impatient, was still silent, and finally made a decision, that is, to send another 200,000 soldiers and horses to Zhang Xutuo to ensure that this battle would be won, and from then on the world would be peaceful, and there would be no more anti-thieves.
Although the food and clothing in ancient times were all pure green without chemical fiber, the original ecological health thing, but it faced a great obstacle, that is, the great inconvenience of communication.
A letter, a soldier delivering a letter, a horse, rushing back and forth night and night, not to mention the extremely slow efficiency, there is also a great risk, resulting in the loss of the letter and so on. Therefore, the development of science and technology to people's life and work to bring convenience, absolutely the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, in any case, the average life expectancy of human beings continues to increase is ironclad evidence.
Uh, okay, let's wait for a reply and continue to rush to Jiangdu.
At the same time, the news from Zhai Rang Li Mi's rebellion has always been that they are losing and retreating, and the general Zhang Xutuo is invincible. After receiving the good news, Yang Guang was of course relieved, and rushed his trip to Jiangdu as soon as possible.
However, after a few days of joy, Yang Guang suddenly woke up from a nightmare that day, and after waking up, he felt pain in his left arm, and even inexplicably had a few more imprints.
Yang Guang didn't care, but he didn't want the pain to get worse, and it didn't get better for a day or two, and it also caused a slight low-grade fever.
Of course, this incident also alarmed the queen, and then boarded the dragon boat from Fengge and anxiously asked the imperial doctor about the situation.
The imperial doctor had a black line on his head, and said with sincere fear: "Back to the queen mother, Your Majesty's dragon body is healthy, and I don't see any abnormalities in the pulse, but I really don't know why Your Majesty's arms are painful." ”
Empress Xiao lowered her face, couldn't help but glance at Yuan Ziyan, and asked unhappily: "Yuan Ziyan, you have been serving the king's side, but did Your Majesty eat something bad?" ”
Cut, when he said this, he still ordered Yuan Ziyan, first a strange medicine powder handkerchief, and then a pill prepared by Yuan Tiangang privately, I was afraid that my Majesty would be spoiled.
"Niangniang, if you say that you eat something bad, then it is an upset stomach, how can it cause pain in your arm?" Yuan Ziyan retorted dissatisfiedly.
"Xu ate indiscriminately, which caused other symptoms." Empress Xiao bit this one to death and said again.
"Several imperial doctors took turns to diagnose and treat His Majesty, and they all said that the pulse was the same, and it really had nothing to do with what they ate." Yuan Ziyan straightened his waist and said.
The two were arguing, and Pei Ju on the side stepped forward and said: "Niangniang, forgive the old minister's courage, since Your Majesty doesn't know where the lesion is, it may be a long journey, which leads to unaccustomed water and soil." Why don't you let Taishi Ling Yuan test a hexagram and analyze the good and evil? ”
Before Yuan Ziyan could answer, Yang Guang, who was lying on the dragon couch with a towel on his forehead, agreed: "Just according to Pei Qing's words." ”
Empress Xiao also thought of one thing, that is, traveling day and night, I don't know how many invisible dirty things I encountered along the way, and it is difficult to say that Your Majesty has fallen into evil, so the imperial doctor can't see it, and also said: "That's it, let Ziyan divinate a hexagram." ”
Yuan Ziyan was a little difficult, and if he was good, he had to make divination predictions, what to ask for, what to ask, could it be to see when Yang Guang would recover? I'm sure I won't be able to die anytime soon.
Of course, she can't say this, don't look at Yang Guang spoiling her, and she can't afford to make this kind of joke. Yuan Ziyan nodded and said, "Okay, but divination also needs to know the root cause, I want to ask Your Majesty, when did this arm pain start?" ”
"You have been serving by Your Majesty's side, do you need to ask others about this matter?" The queen scolded.
"Niangniang, why don't you do divination?" Yuan Ziyan said.
Empress Xiao was dumbfounded, snorted, turned her face to the side, and Yuan Ziyan asked again: "Your Majesty, I mean, when did you start to have your arm pain after what time, or so to say, from what incident?" For example, reading a book with your arms held up for too long, or standing on the bow of a boat for too long at night, etc.? ”
Yang Guang thought for a moment and said, "I woke up yesterday morning and felt pain. ”
"Look at some traces on it, could it be that I was pressed by sleeping at night?"
"Ziyan, I only let you tell the good fortune, you don't need to ask so much." Yang Guang beckoned two palace maids to rub his arms for him.
"Your Majesty, find the root cause to be accurate to the time of the incident." Yuan Ziyan said.
Yang Guang was helpless, recalled again, and smiled bitterly, "It's also ridiculous, I had a dream, I dreamed that I was walking in the secluded forest by the river, and the moon was in the sky, but after a few dog barks, I looked up and saw the tengu devouring the moon, and I was watching, but the tengu rushed towards me and bit on this arm." ”
Empress Xiao was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly picked up Yang Guang's arm and looked at it carefully, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, this blood mark really looks like a tooth mark." ”
Yang Guang waved his hand, got up and sat up, and sighed: "I was afraid of provoking people's associations, so I never mentioned it." ”
Pei Ju's face was solemn, and he said to Yuan Ziyan again: "Miss Ziyan, the matter is already clear, and I hope to predict it as soon as possible." ”
Yuan Ziyan nodded, pinched his fingers again, and arranged hexagrams, in fact, he was thinking back to the records in the history books, until everyone was waiting a little impatiently, Yuan Ziyan said: "Your Majesty, the moon is high, and it should be in your dream, it should represent the royal power." As for this tengu, of course, it is another person who plots against the Great Sui River. However, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry too much, this Tengu wanted to devour the moon but was discovered by His Majesty in time, and being bitten means that there will be some losses. ”
Everyone's faces were cold, it was really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and the leaky boat was a headwind, and a Zhai Rang didn't figure it out, and he got up again.
"So, who should be inferred from the Purple Smoke Girl?" Pei Ju hurriedly asked.
"Since it is a secluded forest by the river, according to the current situation, it should be Jiangzhou's master beggar and Lin Shihong and others." Yuan Ziyan said in a very affirmative tone.
There was silence in the room, and Pei Ju slapped his head suddenly, and said hurriedly: "This master is born in begging clothes, and his nickname is a dog, just because he is a dog!" ”
"Since you dare to go to the sky and swallow the moon, I'm afraid that Poyang County is no longer safe. In the past, Liu Quan, who was too guarded by the South China Sea, passed through here, and I asked him to encircle and suppress Cao Shiqi and others, but instead of succeeding, it fueled his arrogance. Yang Guang couldn't help but sigh heavily.
Yang Guang's guess is not bad at all, within a few days, news came from the south, Cao Shi Qi has conquered Poyang County, the army is growing rapidly, and Cao Shi Qi appeases the people in Poyang, opens a warehouse and releases, and calls himself the king of Yuanxing, the year name is Tiancheng, and the fellow villager Lin Shihong is the general.
Hearing this, Yang Guang almost didn't vomit blood, and was furious, "The troops led by the master are nothing more than 10,000 people, and Yuan Bin, the guard of Poyang County, is slightly familiar with military affairs and is quite proficient in martial arts, how could he end up in such a big defeat?" ”
"Your Majesty, Yuan Bin did not take the Cao Shi Qi and others seriously, and underestimated the strength of the enemy army, so he abandoned the city and left!" The soldier who came to report said.
Yang Guang fell into a deep silence, and Yu Wenhua and others persuaded the emperor to open up and send another general to suppress it, so that Poyang County could be recaptured, and Yuan Bin should be dealt with by military law.
Yang Guang still didn't speak, at this time he didn't think of the small Poyang County, Poyang was lost, and it could be recaptured. Yuan Bin has quite a lot of military talent, and he was defeated by more than 10,000 peasants because of the light enemy, the same reason, Zhang Xutuo is the general of the dynasty, how can he look down on Zhai Rang?
Thinking of this, Yang Guang couldn't help but shudder, stood up suddenly, and said loudly: "Quickly send a message to General Zhang Xutuo, so that no matter whether he wins or loses, he will not dare to pursue the Wagang army again!" ”
The north has not yet been dealt with clearly, and the peasant uprising led by Cao Shiqi has taken advantage of its unpreparedness to take Yuzhang County, an important town in Jiangzhou, in one fell swoop!
The small southern peasant army was able to capture Yuzhang in one fell swoop, and the news came, shocking the government and the opposition. Everyone couldn't sit still, this was tantamount to openly declaring war on the Sui Dynasty, and if it was left unchecked, it would be like a spark and eventually become a prairie fire.
"Quickly recommend the good general to go to Yuzhang to ask for the master to beg!" Yang Guang, whose eyes were red, couldn't sit still on the dragon chair, walking around with his hands behind his back, I don't know if it was nervous or the hot weather, fine beads of sweat kept oozing out of his forehead, but he didn't care about wiping them.
"Your Majesty, Liu Ziyi of Pengcheng, has an army of 300,000 people, and is the first army in the south of our court. Liu Ziyi himself has a lot of combat experience, and if he comes forward, he will definitely return triumphantly! Pei Ju said immediately.
"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks it can't be. Although Liu Ziyi has some talents, he is a general in the palace of Qi in the Southern Dynasty, and his loyalty needs to be tested. Yu Shiji said.
"So apart from Liu Ziyi, are there any other candidates at the moment? I handed over hundreds of thousands of troops to him, did I remember Liu Ziyi's identity when I used my troops? Yang Guang glared at Yu Shiji, and immediately issued an edict, ordering Liu Ziyi to go to Yuzhang with all his strength to ask for the master to beg, and if he resisted, he would be killed!
Liu Ziyi really used the right person, and after being called, he immediately led 100,000 soldiers and horses to Yuzhang. Lin Shihong advocated defending the city and consuming his troops, but the master who was carried away by the victory begged to hear the news, but he was overjoyed, thinking that this was another breakthrough given to him by God, as long as he got rid of Liu Ziyi, and then used Yuzhang as a base, he could gradually annex the southern rivers and mountains of the Sui Dynasty.
Although he established himself as the king, he did not forget to fight side by side with the soldiers, and he took the lead in the battle, charging into battle, vowing to kill Liu Ziyi with his own hands.
Liu Ziyi was not in a hurry to fight, but lured the enemy deeper, and then prepared thousands of archers, and thousands of other soldiers raised their shields to cover for them, with the battle decision of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, and fired thousands of arrows at Liu Ziyi.
The master begged to dodge with his sword, and the people guarding him also desperately resisted for him, and at the same time slashed Liu Ziyi's archers. But the master did not fight Liu Ziyi in the end, and finally was hit by an arrow and died on the spot, without even having time to explain the aftermath. The rebel army suddenly lost its marshal, was in pain, the morale of the army was shaken, and the momentum weakened.
Lin Shihong, the general of the drill begging, immediately made a decision, stepped forward, and led the troops to continue to fight bravely against the enemy, that is, to become the new leader of this rebel army.
