Chapter 607: Monstrous Flames, Gift to Li Yuan
A series of power distributions and checks and balances derived from the cabinet have finally come to an end after many high-IQ people have discussed and determined, and it is already early in the morning, Yang Tong is always not good to let the minister go back hungry, but fortunately, the queen has already prepared, and when she heard that their official business has been discussed, she ordered the palace lady on duty to line up to send supper.
Wei Fengwu thought it out very thoroughly, everyone had enough portions, meat and vegetables were matched, and each had a pot of heroes. Everyone had just come out of the nervous state, and even the serious Li Jing occasionally said a few yellow words, and everyone laughed and talked again. Wei Yunqi, Yang Gongren and other older generations dismantled each other and talked about interesting stories in their early years.
Yang Tong listened interestingly, and occasionally asked a few questions, the serious atmosphere just now was diluted a lot by bursts of laughter, and after the meal, the chief officials of the three provinces casually reported some situations to Yang Tong, and the Great Sui monarchs and ministers talked about it late at night, and then ordered the Xuanjia Army to escort the civil and military ministers back to their homes.
Yang Tong was also exhausted.
Since he watched the gold and silver pagoda on the morning of the 28th, he has been busy until now, during which he not only approved many notes, but also discussed with Yang Guang, and then proposed to set up a cabinet and arrange officials, and he did not know how many problems he had dealt with in more than one day.
As soon as they returned to Fengyi Palace, they went straight to the bed, and the appearance of yawning could make Wei Fengwu and the eldest grandson Wujian who were waiting for them feel very distressed, and the two hurriedly ordered someone to carry the prepared hot water, untie their husband's clothes, take off their boots, and soak in the bath bucket full of hot water.
"Comfortable!"
The hot water soaked the stiff skin, and the wisps of heat penetrated into the body from the pores, which was very comfortable, and Yang Tong couldn't help but let out a long scream.
Wei Fengwu and the eldest grandson Wujian instructed Gong E out, and the two sisters stood by the bathtub with only a small coat and broke Yang Tong's bun, and then rubbed some foam with fragrant soap horns and gently scrubbed them.
This kind of soap horn is made of refined rose juice, soap horn and spices, which can not only wash the dirt on the body, but also restore people's spirits. This technique was invented by the craftsmen of the Western Regions and the craftsmen of the Great Sui, and can be called a model of the combination of Chinese and Western technologies.
Yang Tong closed his eyes and relaxed himself, and let his wife massage him, making him as comfortable as mountaineering, step by step, layer by layer more comfortable.
"My husband is really, why do you fight so hard, you don't care for yourself at all. It doesn't matter if the government is dealt with later, and the government will always be unable to deal with it. This is not the first time Wei Fengwu has said something similar.
Yang Tong said funny: "Hey, if I don't deal with the government, you say that I am a faint king, no matter what I say, the truth is here for you." ”
The eldest grandson Wujian smiled lightly: "The eldest sister sees that you are tired like this, and I feel sorry for you." ”
"What about you?"
The eldest grandson said softly: "My husband is the Emperor of the Great Sui, and I have to deal with a lot of national affairs every day, I can't manage these, but no matter what, I must have a good body." ”
Yang Tong knew that they felt sorry for themselves, and an indescribable tenderness surged in his heart, and he sighed: "If you haven't been peaceful today, I can't help it, I was born with a hard life, and no matter how tired I am, I have to endure it." ”
The government and the opposition of the Great Sui are praising Emperor Shengwu for being good at writing and martial arts, a genius who is rare to see in a hundred years, and Ziweixing descends to earth, but only Yang Tong himself knows that he is just a Chinese asset, and he is too far away from the genuine Holy Monarch Ming, he can govern the country well, one is prescient, the second is to seize talents, the third is that the emperor's grandfather's money, food and armament have become a powerful golden finger, and the fourth point is to be diligent in governing the government, not to say that he forgets to sleep and eat, but he can also be called conscientious and walking on thin ice!
In the final analysis, Yang Tong is not outstanding, as for the god of war and the god of war, they are all fought with strong troops and sophisticated equipment, with this kind of strength that crushes everything, if he is commanded by someone with a little brain, he will become the god of war and the god of war.
Another point that is particularly important is that the commanders of the armies let him.
In the Battle of Mayi, Li Jing gave him the opportunity to kill Shibi Khan;
In the battle of Guanzhong, Li Jing, Qin Qiong, and Xue Wanjun dragged Li Shimin's army of more than 200,000 troops in the Hehuang area, Wang Fubao and Pei Xingyan dragged Li Xiaogong in Xinping County, Beidi County, and Yang Tong was able to scatter the Tang army scattered around Guanzhong by Li Yuan, and when he killed the stragglers in various places, he went to clean up Li Xiaogong.
There have been many foreign wars, and everyone has also created opportunities for him to contain the enemy army and create opportunities.
Although no one said anything, Yang Tong knew that everyone was holding him up to the altar and creating an invincible image of the god of war to deter the world. He, the god of war, has a lot of water, and the real god of war is actually those god-like teammates who pay silently regardless of returns.
Wei Fengwu smiled: "Husband has actually changed a lot, and it is not a good thing to be sharp and vertical and horizontal in the battlefield. As a superior, what is important is to hide the front and be introverted, and when he sits in the center at a leisure time, he will come out of the sheath at a critical moment, which will have an unexpected effect. The so-called gentleman hides his weapon in his body, which is the reason. Husband, do you think I'm right? ”
"Who said the phrase 'a gentleman hides his weapon in his body'?" Yang Tong suddenly said.
Wei Fengwu was slightly stunned, "The ancestor of Kong Shangshu, the saint of Kong!" ”
"Whole sentence!"
"Falcon, fowl; The bow and arrow, the instrument also; Whoever shoots it, so does the man. The gentleman hides his weapon and waits for the time to move......"
"I finally understood that Confucius may be a serious sage, but these words definitely come from an improper time."
Wei Fengwu and the eldest grandson Wujian were stunned and asked, "How can you see it?" ”
Yang Tong smiled: "What kind of utensils does the gentleman in the sentence 'gentleman hide his utensils'?" ”
The eldest grandson said ignorantly: "'Instrument' refers to talent and ability... Not a specific item."
"That's right." Wei Fengwu nodded.
"No, no, no!"
Yang Tong stood up, put them in the bathtub like chickens, asked them to turn their backs to them, tore off Wei Fengwu's obscene pants, and stabbed them with a gun.
While busy, he explained: "In connection with the sentence 'the shooter, the person is also', then the instrument of 'the gentleman hides the weapon in the body' refers to this; and so on, the original sentence should be 'the bow and arrow, the weapon also, the gentleman hides the weapon in the body, and when the time comes, the person who shoots is also the person'." ”
"Well, that's not the case." The eldest grandson on the side had a red face and red ears, and was stunned by Wei Fengwu, thinking about Yang Tong's words, he was suddenly angry and funny, how could this person want to get such a dirty explanation? However, when she thought that Confucius was also a normal person with flesh and blood, she actually felt that Yang Tong's explanation seemed to be correct.
Yang Tong educates: "The sentence 'the one who shoots, the person also' has three meanings: one is that the gentleman of the Tibetan weapon shoots his woman, the second is that the woman of the gentleman of the Tibetan weapon is swept by him, and the third is that after the gentleman of the Tibetan weapon shoots his woman, a person is born." ”
The soft eldest grandson burst out laughing.
The husband and wife came to have a lot of affection in the dark and lay back on the bed.
Wei Fengwu and the eldest grandson Wujian waited for most of the night, they were already exhausted, and they were entertained by Yang Tong, snuggling in their husband's arms one by one, and fell asleep after a while.
Before bedtime.
Yang Tong suddenly thought that Hei Bingtai still had action tonight, and he didn't know what was going on in Xiangyang, but he should receive good news tomorrow, thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile, hugging the two soft delicate bodies, and falling asleep peacefully.
。。。。。。。。。。。
On the other side, when Xiangyang arrived about five watches, it had already fallen into silence, and there were soldiers standing at the entrances of important streets, and from time to time there were soldiers patrolling dutifully in the ice and snow, and red lanterns were hung on the doors of every house, and bright red lights swayed in the wind under the eaves. In the wide main street, someone carried a small lantern and beat the broken drum and the bang, and the huddled body appeared for a while, and soon disappeared into the darkness around the corner, and the slow, listless footsteps and the sound of the banzi gradually disappeared in the cold wind of the night......
Outside the gate of the fang where Wu Chuan Division was located, there were two soldiers standing guard, and in the cold night, the two of them were cold and sleepy, and they seemed relatively relaxed.
The cold killing machine, accompanied by the faint fragrant wind, slowly approached, and the two soldiers who were not aware of it, when they were still talking without a match, the cold dagger easily cut the throats of the two, and in the stunned eyes of the two, two snow-white slender figures covered their mouths from behind, until the two stopped struggling, and then briskly supported the two of them on the wall of the workshop, posing as if they were shrunken and sleeping.
The two slender figures took the door as the center, retreated more than ten zhang to both sides, took out the flying grappling hook on the wall, climbed up silently, turned into it, killed several soldiers in the door as they had just now, and quietly opened the door.
In the not-so-bright night, dozens of white figures crawled out of the snowdrifts on both sides of the street, and they blended into the snow so that people could not see the authenticity, and one by one they sneaked into the workshop like a civet cat.
These people are the Black Ice Terrace warriors who were ordered to lurk in Xiangyang, they have been paying attention to the Wuchuan Division, knowing that this workshop has been completely occupied by the Wuchuan Division, and the buildings in the workshop have been demolished except for the official residence of the Wuchuan Division, and the whole square has become a huge square, which is also the training ground of the Wuchuan Division.
In the past few days, a lot of food has been sent in, partly because of the grain donated by the Guanlong nobles, and partly because Li Yuanji robbed and killed the merchants and ransacked the houses of merchants in various places. According to internal sources, more than 1.2 million stone of grain has been hoarded here, and it will be distributed to various military camps as military rations in the future. It's a pity that the wealth of gold, silver and copper coins was sent directly to the Taiji Palace, otherwise, it would have been burned tonight. However, gold, silver and copper coins cannot be eaten, so it doesn't matter if you miss them.
The soldiers of the Black Ice Platform found that there were thousands of large tents inside, and some houses made of huge trees, but these were also hastily done, except that they were covered with a layer of tarpaulin to avoid rain and snow, there was not much shelter around, which was also the reason for the temporary placement, Tang Jun did not want to waste too much labor, lest the food be moved away and had to be demolished again.
This place has become a food land, and it is naturally heavily guarded, but the feeling of the Black Ice Platform is just a formality, and these soldiers do not have the vigilance they should have.
This may be because the Tang army did not expect an enemy to sneak into Xiangyang, but tonight, one of the most elite soldiers appeared inside, and these people have been in Xiangyang for a long, long time, and their accents are almost the same as those of the locals.
Dozens of Black Ice Terrace warriors had already planned, and they dispersed without discussion, approaching the food powerhouse, each of them had several large skin bags on their bodies, which were filled with flammable fire oil, and each of them was responsible for an area.
About two moments, three cat meows suddenly came from the quiet night sky, which were the order to set fire.
In a split second!
The soldiers took torches, returned along the same road, ignited the grain bags that had been poured with fire oil before, and took advantage of the chaos of the Tang army to evacuate as quickly as they came.
Soon after they left, the fire spread rapidly, and the fire took advantage of the wind and flames to rise into the air, and the fire burst out like tongues of fire, devouring the food and supplies in the wooden shed.
The surging flames were swept around by the strong wind, and the red flames on the big tents and wooden sheds flew up, and the whole workshop seemed to be engulfed in flames.
More than 10,000 Wuchuan pawns in the fang were involved in the tongue of fire, crying dad and calling mother, in the raging fire, they screamed, scrambling to flee to the fangmen, more than 10,000 people, everyone has this heart, all of them can't wait to be the first to leave.
As a result, they were huddled in a pile at the gate of the workshop, and some of the frenzied people waved their swords directly at the people who stood in front of them.
Originally, if you go out in order, everyone can escape in large numbers, but who still has such a noble character when life and death are at stake?
These Wuchuan pawns are murderous soldiers trained by Li Yuanji in the way that the weak die and the strong live, and they have never done such a thing as killing colleagues. Now that his life is threatened, what does he care about comradeship. One by one, their own lives are the priority, and everyone is not far behind, so they staged a murderous cannibalism in front of the fangmen. The heads were rolling, the corpses were piling up, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood and burning.
The black ice platform that left the 'crematorium' didn't have the heart to watch the flames of the previous year, they scattered in a hurry, and ran to several other squares in Xiangyang with a purpose.
In these workshops, there are dark houses purchased by the Dugu clan.
