Chapter 278: Hurriedly retreat the Six Divine Marquis
On this day, it was the fifteenth day of March in the tenth year of Dazhong (856), the night of the full moon.
Zhang Xiong, the prince of Nanyang County, led Li Han, the assassin of Yizhou, and all the generals, commanded 5,000 troops, and rushed to Nazhi City. When they arrived in the city, the guards Li Xiang and others caught him and explained to him the situation of the battle in recent days, Tuyuhun Murong Da was beaten away, and the Uighur Sabir was still fighting at the West Gate.
Huang Zhao, the Duke of Liang County, was injured in the leg the day before yesterday and was forced on crutches to meet the tide of Nanyang County Gongzhang. In view of the fact that Liang County Gong had been attacking Sabir all the time, Nanyang County Gong Zhang Yichao asked him in detail about the situation outside the city.
Huang Yaohan said: "Shangshu, after a few days of challenges, there are twelve famous generals in the Uighur array. Among them, there are three fierce generals who are good at charging into battle, all of whom are brothers with Sabir and are known as the four great lion kings of the Uighurs in the Tianshan Mountains.
"Each has a tuba, namely: the fork king Sabir is the eldest brother, and the following is the stick king Pilates, the sword king Sawuti, and the sword king Alekun. Caught a minister and called him Sadiq. You can interrogate it in detail. β
Before the city of Nazhi was in their hands, they appointed the Minister of Ratna, and this Sabir was not an ordinary person.
Huang Yaohan immediately waved his hand, and Huang Ren brought the great minister Sadiq up. Seeing that Sadiq's beard was gray, about a foot long, fifty-five or sixteen years old, eight feet long, with a rectangular face, and kind eyes, he did not look like a demon at all, but like a devout Nestorian Christian.
Zhang Yichao asked: "Zhang Yichao, the official of Nanyang County, may I ask the Minister of Sadiq, you claim to be ten thousand people, hundreds of generals, and vow to take the city of Nazhi as a tooth tent, how did it happen? Is it the rumored that King Sabir made a bet with Murong Da?"
Sadiq immediately knelt down on one knee to Zhang Yichao: "The county prince is above, where am I the prime minister, it's just that Sabir is buttoning his hat indiscriminately."
"Sabir and Murong Da were originally good brothers, because Sabir was determined to collect all the pastures at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and he thought that Murong Da was in the way, so in the name of betting, he used the excuse of breaking Nazhi City, intending to destroy Murong Da. Now it's time to dig the tunnel to the root of the city wall, and ask the county magistrate to take a clear look and make a decision as soon as possible. β
Sadiq's remarks shocked the generals.
Huang Zhao, the prince of Liang County, was furious, endured the pain of his leg injury, came up and sealed Sadiq's collar and shouted: "Sadiq, why didn't you say it when Huang tried it?
Sadiq was tepid, not afraid at all: "I have to see the county prince speak before I count, it's not that the villain is rude, although the Liang county prince has the disciples of the six gods, the three armies of the Yongguan, and the mighty Longyou, but after all, you will leave sooner or later." As soon as you leave, we are at a loss, and the ancestors of the county are all in Shazhou, so he can completely let me rely on them. β
Zhang Xiong nodded yes, persuaded Huang Zhao to leave, and immediately ordered: "Stick God Hou Gu Roll, Fork God Hou Mountain Crack, Gun God Hou Xiying, Axe God Hou Tao Ke, Hammer God Hou Earth Dung, Suo God Hou Li Yao, Er and others led the Tiger Guard Division to charge the battle and kill the four lion kings."
"After Yichang Boguo led the leopard guards to join forces, he blocked the Uighur army from rushing into the city. Li Xiangxiang hurriedly filled the moat, smashed the tunnel, and flooded it. Defeated the Uighur army, took in the surrendered soldiers, and placed them under the command of Sadiq, who managed the Uighur tribes in Yizhou and the surrounding areas. β
The six great gods, Yichang Bo Guo Wei, and Li Xiang, the general of the duties, held the arrows one by one, and shouted in unison: "Get the order!" and quickly led the troops away, disappearing into this full moon night.
Zhang Xiong sat in the tent of the Chinese army, and veterans such as Hu Zhen, Huang Yi, Zhang Cao, and Li Han, as well as An Zhi and You Tong, accompanied him to gossip here. These old brothers collided together, and naturally they were talking about the peddlers. Just as he was talking energetically, suddenly the outside guard reported: "The soul chasing god of Khotan Town will ask Zhu Zhan and Shule Town to see Zhu Zhan, Shule Town's father and male Eagle Guo Zhen." β
Hu Zhen and the third brother Zhang Pu and the fifth brother Li Han happened to mention them, the second brother Zhu Zhan and the fourth brother Guo Zhen arrived here, it really said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, hurriedly got up and ran out, shouting: "Hurry up, please!"
Zhang Yichao, Huang Yi, Zhang Cao, and Li Han also ran out one after another, Zhu Zhan and Guo Zhen were all crane-haired and childish, and they came with great energy, and when they saw the eldest brother, they knelt down on one knee together, trembling with excitement.
Li Han was busy and knelt down on one knee to the two elder brothers, and Zhang Ke also knelt down on one knee to the second brother Zhu Zhan, and the two helped each other up, and they all went to the big tent to sit down. This is also strange that the five elders of Khotan gathered in Nazhi City. Hu Zhen couldn't help asking, "What kind of wind blew the second and fourth brothers here?
Zhu Zhan, the soul chasing god general, said: "I heard that the four great lion kings of the Tianshan Uighurs have come here, and there is even Murong Da of Tuyuhun, so I went around to the fourth child to meet him, and Gain Sabir and Murong Da are related to us. β
When Zhang Yichao heard this, the second uncle and the fourth uncle were relatives of Sabir and Murong Da, and he was very surprised: "Second uncle and fourth uncle, I have sent the six great gods, the tiger guard, and the leopard guard out of the city to kill the four lion kings, what kind of relatives are they? β
Zhu Zhan was shocked, and hurriedly said: "My second daughter and sister Zhu Yingluo is married to Sabier, this guy is an old son-in-law." Quick, call for the withdrawal of troops. I came to persuade him to stop the war. β
Shang's father, Guo Zhen, was also surprised, and said: "My youngest son Guo Xi's wife is Murong Ju, Murong Da's sister. β
Zhang Xiong hurriedly ordered: "Feng Chenghou and Xiurong Hou go quickly, and order the six gods to withdraw quickly." β
You Tong and An Zhi held the arrow in their hands and left in response.
Wu Ning male Youtong, is the royal oil dealer general, because of the subjugation of the Longyou eleven states of the war exploits, tired to Fengcheng County founding marquis, fief in Lingnan Road Hezhou.
An Zhi is the king of the imperial oil seller, the commander of the Huang family, the prestige has always been high, and she is everywhere in the planning and rushing battles, and she has more credit than her husband Jun Youtong, and she is already a famous general of the Tang Dynasty.
Xuanzong Li Chen saw clearly in Zhang Xiong's recital, and thought that An Zhi should be crowned like a male general, and could not simply be crowned a county lady with You Tong's reward. There was a precedent at the time of Gaozu, and the funeral of Princess Zhao of Pingyang was held according to the specifications of the Hussar General and Guogong from the first-class military attachΓ©, and Qin Qiong, the Duke of Hu Guo, who had made great contributions to living together.
Therefore, Xuanzong's special purpose was to confer Anzhi as the Marquis of Xiurong, and the fief Xiurong County was in Xinzhou, Hedong Province, and the word Xiurong coincided with Anzhi's identity as a female general. The Son of Heaven really put a lot of thought into her canonization.
As for the question of whether the identity of a businessman can be admitted to the government, Xianzong had to think about it again and again 30 years ago, and he was deeply afraid that the government and the opposition would question it. Now, when it comes to Xuanzong, it is no longer considered whether the businessman's direct entry into the government violates the rules and regulations, but directly rewards.
Huang Zhao, the duke of Liang County, has listened to the command of his aunt An Zhi and uncle You Tong since he was a child, and Huang Zhao's six Shenhou disciples of course also listened to Huang Yi and An Zhi's words. How could Zhang Xiong not know about the situation of his family? If he asked his wife to go, he would definitely be able to recall the six great gods.
Huang Yi, the Marquis of Qi, was not at ease, knowing that Zhang Xiong was embarrassed to give orders to the elders, he also flew out and persuaded the gods to return to the city.
Huang Zhao, the prince of Liang County, heard the news on the sickbed, ignored his leg injury, got on crutches, and galloped out of the city.
You Tong and An Zhi took advantage of the full moon to see that the tunnel dug by Sabir had indeed reached the west city gate, and Li Xiang commanded the soldiers to leave the city gate at a stone's throw away, smashing the tunnel, which was attracting the city river to irrigate.
Yichang Boguo Wei led 800 leopards to guard not far away, resisting the death and preventing the Uighur soldiers from rushing to this side. They were killed one by one, and the corpses of the Uighurs were lying in front of them.
Each of the six gods led a team, and the Tiger Guard, with a total of 300 horsemen, had already rushed into the enemy's formation, slashing and slaying fiercely, and the Uighur army was rushed into chaos.
On this full moon night in March and a half, outside the west city of Nazhi County, there were earth-shaking swords and guns colliding, screams of crying fathers and mothers, terrifying shouts of killing, and beer-clattering beheadings.
Blood splattered everywhere, and a ghost cried wolf. The ground was full of blood, and immediately the limbs and arms were cut off. The sky is miserable and cloudy, and the earth is miserable, and the mountains and rivers are whimpering.
In just half an hour, Sabir's 3,000 Uighur warriors had been killed, nearly 2,000.
The so-called four lion kings, the stick king Pilates came up and was bumped into by the stick god Hou Gu. Stick Shenhou raised his seventy-eight pounds of bamboo copper staff, and fought against Pilates's sixty-two pounds of dragon sticks, and the two big iron rods made a strange "buzzing" sound, who dared to move forward?
It was just that it was not enough, and there was a muffled "snap", and Pilates's head was swept away by the bamboo and bronze canes, which frightened the Uighurs into screaming.
The sword king Sawuti was blocked by the spear god Hou Xiying. The spear god Hou danced with seventy-two near-muddy iron spears in his palm, and Sawuti's fifty-six pound ghost slashing knife screamed. The Gun God Hou didn't bother to test how capable he was, but he just fought to Qihe, and suddenly stood on the horse, flat-ended iron spear, and collided directly.
Hiding in the stirrups, pulling out the horse and spinning. The spear god Hou smoothed the barrel of the gun, and there was a mountain sound of "pop", so much force, and the five-flowered horse of Sawuti was immediately knocked to the ground. Sawuti was thrown off his horse, and the ghost slashing knife fell off.
Two of Sawuti's guards swarmed to block them, and they were stabbed in the chest with a shot from the spear god Hou, and Wangkong easily shook off their bodies. With a knock on the black horse, he leaped from Sawuti's body, but with just one shot, Sawuti's head was picked off.
Sword King Yalikun's Mingsha Sword was really powerful, he wielded a red tassel spear in one hand, and slashed wildly with a Mingsha sword in the other, and more than a dozen people in the tiger guard were injured.
Suo Shenhou Li Yao was furious, caught him to fight, and rolled up the 84-pound iron rope "Jiujiu" into the wild sand, just two together, and took away his red tassel gun. Alekun used the sword of Mingsha to cut his iron rope, and fought until he was more than thirty times, and he did not see each other.
Li burned his temperament, fought him in another way, and danced at both ends of the Zhangba iron rope. At this time, Alikun was completely out of order, he was wrapped around his arm, and the Mingsha Sword couldn't break free, and he saw that the other end of the iron rope smashed into his head, which frightened Alekun like a thunderstorm and shouted: "Tahi Lang!"
The Uighur word for "Tahilang" is equivalent to the Tang word for "my life is resting." Fortunately, the eldest brother Sabir heard it, and danced the sixty-four pounds and five strands of the divine fork to the sound of "whirring" the mountain, and rushed desperately.
Suo Shenhou Li Yao hurriedly shook off the iron cable, and this shaking force directly threw Yalikun up more than a zhang high. The sword king Yalikun rolled and fell to the ground, and was caught by many soldiers and helped aside.
As soon as Suo Shenhou turned around, he happened to catch Sabir here, and with a shake of his hand, the iron rope entangled his five-strand divine fork, which frightened Sabir and hurriedly took off the fork and galloped away.
Suoshenhou pursued him wildly, but was stopped by numerous Uighur soldiers. Suo Shenhou was entangled in the chaos of the army with the fork god Hou Mountain Split, the axe god Hou Taoke, and the hammer god Hou earth dung.
About 2,000 Uighur soldiers were killed, and the regimental captains and brigade commanders commanded by them were wiped out by the six great gods. At this time, outside the West City Gate, Feng Chenghou You Tong and Xiurong Hou Anzhi rang the gong vigorously, and You Tong shouted: "Nanyang County Gong Urgent Order, the Six Great Divine Marquis Collect Troops!"
The six gods and the three hundred tiger guards withdrew from the encirclement in an instant, and gathered in front of You Tong and An Zhi. The six gods were unharmed, and the tiger guards were killed sixteen and more than forty were injured. It seems that the Uighurs were indeed brave.
At this time, the ninety-three-year-old Marquis of Qi, Huang Yi, with a white beard fluttering, had just stood on his horse, and Huang Zhao, the prince of Liang County, also arrived with a horse. Huang Zhao shouted: "Sabir is the son-in-law of Zhu Zhan, the soul chasing god general, his old man has arrived in the city, I will wait for the battle to return to the city." β
As he was talking, the soul chasing god Zhu Zhan also came in the moonlight, and Zhang Yichao, the prince of Nanyang County, also followed out of the city, and the four elders of the rare treasure god Hu Zhen, the Mingsha swordsman Zhang Cao, the father of Shang's father, Guo Zhen, and the Yizhou melon god Li Han also followed.
Nanyang County Gongzhang Yichao shouted: "King Sabir, don't you come to worship your old Taishan?"
Zhu Zhan, the soul chasing god general, also shouted like thunder: "Sabir Wu'er, if you don't surrender again, when will you wait?"
Sabir had already seen his father-in-law Zhu Zhan, with the sword king Alikun and the rest of the guards, Pegasus came to Zhu Zhan's approach, turned over and dismounted, knelt on his knees, and cried: "The child visits his father and asks him to forgive the child for his unfilial piety." β
Yalikun also turned over and knelt upright: "See my father-in-law, I am rude, look at Haihan." β
Huang Zhao, the Duke of Liang County, was furious and shouted loudly: "Where are the six gods, and you won't tie them up?"
The six gods rushed up in an instant, tying up Sabir and Alekun. Suddenly Sabir was so frightened that his face turned earthy, and Alekun trembled.
Nanyang County Gong Zhang Xiong, Qi Hou Huang Yi and the five elders of Khotan were dumbfounded, what is Huang Zhao going to do?
