Chapter 327, 328: The Great General Fainted!
Li Luo, with the attitude of a conqueror, braved the cold autumn rain and went to Qingshui Temple to relax. Emperor Kameyama's father and son and the palace concubine were placed under house arrest here.
Kiyomizudera Temple is a famous temple in Kyoto, and it is also a royal temple, which is the headquarters of the Japanese Buddhism Hoshozong, and is dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva.
In the hazy drizzle, the autumn leaves around Kiyomizu-ji Temple are quiet and beautiful, and the maple forest is quiet, reflecting the huge ancient temple, which looks peaceful and quiet.
But now, a full 3,000 soldiers and horses are "guarding" Qingshui Temple, making the ancient giant temple that was originally transcendent and earthly have a lot more murderous atmosphere.
Li Luo climbed the stairs and just heard the bell of Kiyomizu Temple, and faintly heard the monks' morning class chanting. Although Kiyomizu Temple has long been occupied, the monks in the temple have apparently accepted their fate and only chanted sutras and chanted Buddha.
When Li Luo arrived, Kameyama and his son were listening to the scriptures in the lecture hall.
“…… The world is also empty, and the family, country, and society are also empty. Glory and wealth, the grass is exposed; Wang Tu hegemony, water moon mirror flower. This is an illusion of the world, born in an instant, and extinguished in an instant...... suffer from gains and losses, and never wake up; There is no sorrow or joy, and there is a great understanding. ”
An old monk with a solemn appearance sat on the futon in front of the statue of Guanyin, and talked eloquently to the father and son of Guishan. After being placed under house arrest for several days, Kameyama's father and son had no other way to anesthetize the pain of the prisoners than to listen to the scriptures and talk about Zen for comfort.
Li Luo just heard the old monk's "wonderful reasoning", and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bend up.
What is empty? Are they all illusions? Then why do you Qingshui Temple guard tens of thousands of acres of land, and monks of all sizes compete for fame and reputation?
"The general has arrived!" The guards Yan Ying howled out in his throat, and the guards of the brigade poured in, which immediately broke the Zen of the lecture hall.
The old monk choked, his face changed slightly, he stood up, put his hands together and said: "Old man Miaoxi, I have seen the general, Amitabha!" ”
The monks also clasped their hands together and proclaimed the Buddha's name to Li Luo.
Kameyama's father and son stood up with bitter faces, bowed and said, "The king of the small country, I have seen the lord of the kingdom." ”
"The lord of the kingdom is exempt, don't be like this. When the lord of the country arrives in Dadu, he does not lose his position as a public candidate. This official must be above the commander, and the commander should not be courteous. Li Luowen said, his eyes full of smiles.
This man is a gentle conqueror. Therefore, his smile was full of sympathy and understanding, and he seemed to regret what happened to Kameyama's father and son.
Although this young man robbed all the classics and ancient artifacts in Kyoto, he did not kill people indiscriminately, but maintained order in the city.
"Rest assured, the lord of the country has temporarily appointed one of your ministers as the head of Ping'an Road on behalf of the imperial court to maintain order in the city. This city of peace will be safe. Li Luo revealed a message to the Kameyama father and son.
"General, please be seated." Zen Master Miaoxi personally brought a thick futon and asked Li Luo to sit down.
"Sit down, you're welcome." Li Luo said with a smile on his face, and everyone sat down very restrainedly, but it was like sitting on pins and needles.
Emperor Kameyama asked cautiously, "I... I heard that the emperor of the Song State was in Dadu? ”
Li Luo nodded: "Then the Lord of the Song Kingdom has sealed the Duke of Yingguo and enjoys glory and wealth in Dadu." The Great Emperor was extremely lenient to the Song Emperor who abolished the emperor. The lord of the country is going to the capital, and the marshal will definitely play the respectful obedience of the lord of the country, and the crime of not submitting is all in the Hojo clan, and the lord of the country has nothing to do. ”
Kameyama pretended to be grateful, "Then thank you to Your Excellency the General." He was in an extremely complicated mood, hating and fearing Li Luo, and also had illusions about Li Luo.
Emperor Goyuta Shihito boldly said, "Your Excellency the General, the Imperial Minister... No, are we all going to Dadu? His mood was just as complicated as his father's.
Li Luo said: "That's for sure. Your father and son, the palace concubines, plus the ministers of Kyoto and their families, there are more than 3,000 people. Except for the officials of the Ping An Governor's Office, naturally all of them have to go to Dadu. ”
Kameyama's father and son suddenly showed such a miserable look. Both of them were people who respected Sinology and were very familiar with the history of the Central Plains. Of course, they knew that Song Huizong's father and son were escorted to Wuyang City in the Jin Kingdom, but they suffered a lot of humiliation.
Now, it's their father's and son's turn.
Thinking of the terrible fate of the king of the dead country, the father and son really trembled from the heart. Emperor Kameyama wanted to commit suicide and martyrdom more than once, but he didn't have the strength of a samurai, so how could he be willing to die in his prime? Suicide and martyrdom sound heroic and good, but how many people can really do it? Ants are still greedy for life, and there is still a little hope for survival in the world.
The Hojo clan has mistaken the country!
If he had known the truth of the cold lips and teeth and sent a large army to aid the Song Dynasty to resist the Meng Yuan, there would not be today's disaster. But because of the short-sightedness of the shogunate, what is happening now when the Song Dynasty is destroyed? Meng Yuan's destruction of the Song Dynasty has been completed, so he will free up his hands to destroy the sun.
I knew why I had to do it in the first place. If the Hojo clan can keep the kingdom of God, he will still be a great hero of the kingdom of God, but if he doesn't, he will be a great sinner of the kingdom of God.
Li Luo looked at the Kameyama father and son who looked in a trance and lost their souls, and his heart was extremely happy.
Speaking of which, he was quite polite to the father and son. If it had been the Mongols, it would definitely not be the situation now. At the very least, their group of beautiful palace concubines will definitely suffer.
The reason why Li Luo is more "polite" is not that he sympathizes with the other party. Rather, he didn't want to be so savage. If you practice each other too much, you will seem to have no taste and self-cultivation at all. The attitude towards losers is often also a yardstick to measure a person.
After all, he is now an aggressor, not an avenger. For the king of a country that surrendered, it can't be too much.
"Your Excellency, General, I have a reluctant request below. I hope to visit the Imperial Palace before leaving Kyoto. After all... Born and raised there under it. Emperor Kameyama said, already in tears.
"Yes. Ben Shuai is right. Li Luo agreed, stood up and prepared to leave.
It's not a big deal, it's human nature.
"Thank you, General." Kameyama father and son said together.
When Li Luo left, the father and son couldn't hold back their heads and cry anymore.
is Miaoxi Zen Master, and he has no intention of persuading him at this time. He himself was so uncomfortable that he died. Because Yuan Kou not only moved the three-foot golden Buddha in his meditation room just now, but also transported many solitary books from the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.
And he can only pretend to be deaf and dumb, where can he dare to stop it?
This monk, whose mouth was full of emptiness, did not have a trace of calmness at this time, and his eyes were red.
Suddenly, the monk muttered a few words, shook his body, and collapsed.
"Master!" Several monks were shocked and pounced on the fainting Zen Master Miaoxi.
Nani?! Kameyama's father and son suppressed their sorrow together, and looked at the fainting Zen master with a stunned expression.
What happened?
…………
On October 10, the Eastern Expeditionary Army left Ping'an City with dozens of truckloads of classics and ancient artifacts, as well as more than 3,000 captured monarchs and ministers and their families, and headed east.
When passing through the Lotus Mountain, more than 3,000 captives looked back at Ping'an City, and they all cried and bowed down, and the cry was earth-shattering and resounded for several miles.
The Emperor of Guishan shed tears in his chest, looked at Ping'an City and chanted: "I left the emperor's house on October 10, and since then I have drifted to the end of the world." Three thousand tears mourn the vast rain, and there is no peace plum cherry blossom ......"
The Minister of Imperial Affairs, Takaji Kanpei, also chanted a poem: "Once you go to God, you don't know the year, and you are ashamed to ask the sky about your homeland." Endure watching the grass grow in the temple, and tearfully look at the mountains and rivers rising smoke......"
Seeing that the ministers of the public family were composing poems one after another, and the palace concubines and concubines were raining pear blossoms, the Mongolian soldiers finally got impatient, and the whip suddenly came over without a head or face.
"A group of sour old Confucians! What a babble! If you don't hurry, I won't spare you! The Mongolian soldier waved his whip and scolded angrily in Mongolian, "Cattle and sheep don't know the hard work of shepherds, you are cows who have just given birth to calves!" Rub what! ”
The captives dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, so they could only go on the road again, but they all turned back one step at a time, unwilling and reluctant in every way. This scene is even Li Luo, who has no heart and lungs, and he can't help but sigh.
With a large number of prisoners, the army did not move quickly. It was not until October 13 that he arrived in Ise Province. Ise Jingu, the largest shrine in Japan, is already in sight.
"Your Excellency the Great General, I would like to go to Ise Jingu for the last time to worship Amaterasu." Guishan found Li Luo in front of him and knelt down directly.
Ise Jingu? Li Luo looked at a majestic palace not far away, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Ise Jingu, which will not exist for a long time. However, it would be a pity that Li Luo was not ready to burn it down.
This palace building will still exist in the future, but it will not be Ise Jingu, but Taijo Michigu Shrine. The gods of sacrifice will also change from Amaterasu to Taishang Laojun.
"Accurate!" Li Luo said very generously.
"General Xie!" Guishan didn't expect Li Luo to be so happy, he prostrate in front of Li Luo's horse's head, threw himself in the dust, and his body trembled slightly.
Soon, the sound of the Japanese monarchs and ministers was heard again in the Ise Shrine. After a while, a general came over and said, "General, there are seven Japanese ministers who committed suicide by hitting a pillar in that palace. ”
Li Luo nodded and ordered: "This is not a bad act of loyalty, let Ise Jingu be buried with good life!" ”
"No!" The generals were ordered to leave.
Because of the suicide and martyrdom of seven ministers, the attitude of the Mongol soldiers towards the captives was slightly better.
It was only on October 5 that the army returned to the port of Matsusaka.
On the same day, Li Luo received news that Kyushu Island had been full of smoke, and many people who were unwilling to be slaves of the country formed an anti-Yuan rebel army and rose up one after another. Some of the Japanese traitors appointed by Li Luo were killed by the anti-Yuan army, and some became the leaders of the anti-Yuan army.
Lost the suppression of the army, Kyushu Island really became chaotic. However, Dazaifu (Xiuning Castle) was still firmly controlled because it was guarded by 10,000 troops of the remaining general, Zhu Hao.
The rebellion on Kyushu Island is normal, and it is also Li Luo's deliberate indulgence. Because, this is his excuse to give up attacking Honshu and return to Kyushu Island.
The capture of Kyushu Island and the capture of Japanese monarchs and ministers is already a great merit to the sky, which is enough to deceive the trust and reuse of the Yuan court. There is no need for him to make new contributions, stumbling in the Kanto and shogunate, and consuming his strength.
On the one hand, he can no longer make meritorious contributions. Because if the military merit is too great, it will definitely arouse the jealousy of the Yuan court and Kublai Khan, and it will also arouse the envy of the Mongolian nobles, and lose the face of all the Mongolian generals. In the next tough battle, let the Yuan army fight. Let the Mongolian generals take the next big work.
He has already given Hojo Tokimune a lot of time to prepare, presumably the strength of the shogunate is not comparable to last month, and it is definitely enough for the Yuan army to drink a pot.
Hojo Shizong, Hojo Shizong, you are a hero, don't let the Yuan army be wiped out with three strikes and two divisions. You have to fight hard, fight to the death, force out all the potential of Japan, and don't let me down. I've helped you enough for the hatred of the Yuan army, and the next thing is up to your performance.
If you don't beat the Yuan army, you will be a bad seed.
"Kyushu Island is full of rebellions, and the order is to immediately return to Xiuning City to suppress the rebellion!" When Li Luo got the news of the rebellion on Kyushu Island, his heart blossomed, and he hurriedly ordered to return to Kyushu Island.
Zheza and other Mongolian generals originally wanted to fight in the Kanto region, but when they heard that Kyushu Island was in turmoil, they didn't have the heart to do so.
Kyushu Island is a springboard for the conquest of Japan, and it cannot be gained and lost. The general was right to return to Kyushu Island.
In fact, Li Luo knew very well who those rebelled against. It's definitely just a rabble of fish that have slipped through the net, and in time, they may become the climate. But now, they can't make waves.
However, Li Luo still instructed the generals of his lineage to spread rumors in the army, not only exaggerating the power of the "anti-thieves", but also saying that there were samurai behind Shikoku Island.
As a result, Li Luo put forward the idea of conquering Shikoku Island during the military discussion.
Why conquer Shikoku? Because Li Luo needs to divide his troops. If he didn't divide the troops, when the Yuan army came, and saw that there were still so many soldiers and horses under his command, it would be difficult for him to swallow the Jiangnan army privately. Because the Jiangnan Army is the sequence of the Yuan Army.
He needed tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to be "killed" on the island of Shikoku. The soldiers and horses that are ready to be "killed" are the soldiers and horses that he wants to swallow privately.
On October 18, Lee's army returned to Dazaifu again, bringing news that the emperor's ministers had been captured and that the shogunate's army had been defeated.
When the news came, the "Anti-Yuan Righteous Army" on Kyushu Island suddenly lost its morale.
As soon as Li Luo returned to Xiuning City, Li Yong reported the chaos on Kyushu Island.
"The owner, the rebellion was all launched by the surviving wealthy clans, and there were probably more than thirty shares. There are only a few thousand people, and a few hundreds. The total is only forty or fifty thousand people, and they are not well armed and have very little armor, so they can't make the climate. However, they plan to unite and prepare to elect a wealthy clan named Kono Seikyo as a general. Li Yong said.
Li Luo said approvingly: "You did a good job. You don't have to worry about Kyushu Island. If you're planning to go to Honshu Island, your focus will be on Kanto in the future. ”
"Yes!" Li Yong took the order.
Immediately after, Li Luo immediately raised his account and used the rebellion on Kyushu Island to arrange a division plan.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the thieves are like fire, it is said that there are more than 100,000 uprisers, and there are more and more of them, and they are gradually becoming a prairie fire! There is also Shikoku Island, our army does not go to conquer them, but they support the rebellion on Kyushu Island! Hmph, this handsome will be killed! Extinguish this catastrophe! ”
Zheza stood up and said, "Please give the order of the general, and the last general will immediately lead his troops to quell the thieves!" Hmph, this time, they don't dare to fight back when they are about to kill! ”
Li Luo said with a solemn expression: "There are many thieves, in order to level it as soon as possible and prevent it from becoming bigger, we must go all out to conquer and suppress it." Zheza, you lead your troops south to Satsuma, divide your troops and kill them in several ways! "The rebels there are the strongest, and letting the Mongol cavalry go there to quell the rebellion, of course Li Luo has bad intentions.
"Wow!" Jeza was glad to receive the order.
"Du Lie!"
"The last general!"
"You lead the Goryeo army to the east of the island to kill, and you have to divide the way!"
"No!"
"Who wants to conquer Shikoku?" Li Luo asked again.
Yang Xu and Zhu Jaw stood up together and said, "The last general is willing to go!" ”
Zhang Yong and Xiao Bei also stood up and said, "The last general is willing to go!" ”
These four people, of course, were instructed by Li Luo before.
Li Luo said: "Ben Shuai must sit on Kyushu Island to quell the chaos, and he can't leave lightly. Since you are willing to go, then take your troops and horses to conquer Shikoku Island! ”
The four of them were "overjoyed" and hugged their fists together and said: "No! ”
Li Luo said in a matter-of-fact manner: "The four countries are mountainous, and the Japanese are cunning, so you must not be careless." We must work steadily and steadily, and do not be greedy for merit. In case you fall into the trap of the Japanese. ”
He was talking nonsense, of course. The elite soldiers of Shikoku Island were all transferred by the shogunate before, and many of them were also allocated to the young people. Now the defense of Shikoku Island is empty, and there are no Japanese elite soldiers at all.
The problem is that this information is not known to the Mongol generals.
The reason why Li Luo let the four of them go was because these four people controlled more than 30,000 Jiangnan troops, including 10,000 heavy infantry equipped with Song army infantry armor.
With more than 30,000 elite soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River, how can Li Luo not be greedy? The biggest purpose of his expedition was to embezzle tens of thousands of Jiangnan troops. Of course, it can't all be swallowed privately, if all the 60,000 Jiangnan troops are swallowed, it will be difficult to suppress it when it reaches Haidong. The Jiangnan Army that went to Haidong could not exceed twice the size of his descendants.
With such a division of troops, when the Yuan Court comes, you will see that he only has tens of thousands of remnants, and he is unbearable to fight again.
On October 16, the army finally divided its troops. In this way, there were only more than 10,000 land soldiers left around Li Luo, all of whom were his descendants, of which there were 7,000 Jurchen cavalry.
As several large armies went out to fight, the rebellion in various parts of Kyushu Island was quickly suppressed. The butcher's knife of the Crusade Army swung fiercely again.
In less than ten days, the anti-Yuan rebels on Kyushu Island were all suppressed. According to Li Yongmi's report, more than 100,000 Japanese were killed, and more than half were slaughtered by the Mongol army alone.
The resistance force on Kyushu Island was completely eradicated, and tens of thousands of anti-Yuan rebels were killed. As for the casualties of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, there were only four or five thousand people, and the largest casualties among them were the Goryeo Army.
However, when the generals returned to Xiuning City one after another to report the victory, a huge "bad news" was passed by the sailor.
On October 22, the 35,000-strong army that had conquered Shikoku Island fell for the Japanese army's tricks because of their greed for merit. The army camped in a small city abandoned by the Japanese army, and was attacked by the Japanese army at night, and the fire burned all night, and 35,000 troops were killed in the fire.
When the news came, in addition to Li Luo's descendant generals, Mongolian Semu and other generals were stunned.
"What!" When Li Luo heard the report, he jumped up angrily. "Rubbish! Mediocre person! Mistake me for a big deal! Ben Shuai said early ago that you should not be greedy for merit, you must fight steadily and steadily, and beware of the Japanese army's treacherous schemes! Why ignore it! It's not a pity to die! Have pity on my tens of thousands of troops... Ahem! ”
Li Luo coughed suddenly, suddenly shook his body, and fell backwards.
"General!" Zheza and other generals exclaimed in surprise, and quickly grabbed it with their eyes, helping Li Luo who had fainted.
"The general has fainted!"
Jiang Jun immediately ordered: "The news of the total annihilation of Shikoku Island, don't spread it!" lest the Japanese on Kyushu Island rebel again! ”
Du Lie also said matter-of-factly: "The news of the general's fainting must not be leaked, otherwise the army's heart will be unstable." ”
After a while, Li Luo "woke up" and said hatefully: "Our army has been defeated on Shikoku Island, and the commander will personally lead the Chinese army and swear to calm it!" ”
Zheza said: "The general can't, the last general is willing to go to Shikoku......"
Li Luo waved his hand and interrupted Zheza's words, "I have made up my mind!" Shikoku Island, this marshal will take it personally! Now there are only 40,000 land divisions in our army, and when the Chinese army goes to Shikoku Island, there will be only 27,000 land divisions left on Kyushu Island. You must be cautious and firmly control Kyushu Island! ”
"No!" The generals had no choice but to obey. Especially the Mongol generals such as Zheza, they thought to themselves that the general was really a loyal minister of the Great Yuan!
In this way, more than 10,000 descendants of Li Luo left Kyushu Island.
After he pacifies the "Japanese army" on Shikoku Island, he will have "only a few thousand soldiers and horses left".
