Chapter 105: The Yan Army Goes North
After Yue Zigan was beheaded, King Yan's matter was over.
But there are many follow-up things, Li Jun has been busy lately, first of all, a large number of immigrants have been on the road, which is a test for officials at all levels, and it is a big test for Li Jun, although Li Jun is now in power, but the eyes of the masses are bright, this large-scale migration of nearly 500,000 people is the first time since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.
On this day, Li Jun had just finished discussing the immigration matter with the people of Shangshutai, Dou Guan hurriedly came to ask for a meeting, Li Jun met with Dou Guan in Shangshutai, and Dou Guan was not in a good mood recently, because their Dou family finally came out with a Dou Lin, and I thought that I could share it for myself, but I didn't expect that after Yue Zi finished his work, Dou Lin was disheartened, and he resigned and went to Gantang to teach.
So what Li Jun saw was a sinus tube with a lot of vicissitudes, Li Jun said with a smile: "Dou Aiqing, you still have to take care of your body, look at you, it's not even fifty, and your face is full of vicissitudes, which is worrying." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty seems to have lost some weight recently, and please take care of your dragon's body." The sinus canal immediately returned.
Li Jun nodded and said, "Dou Qing, I don't know what is the important thing to come to me today?" ”
Dou Guan arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, King Yan rebelled this time, but the 30,000 Yan army defected, I don't know what Your Majesty should do with these 30,000 Yan army?" ”
This question has been bothering Li Jun for a long time, if you want to use it, I really don't feel at ease, no, I am afraid of chilling the hearts of the Tang soldiers, so Li Jun has been very embarrassed, and now since Dou Guan has stabbed this matter away, Li Jun asked: "Dou Qing, what are your good ideas?" ”
Dou Guan said confidently: "The minister feels that it can be used, but he can't stay in Yandi anymore." ”
"How about letting them come to the capital?" Li Jun asked tentatively.
Dou Guan shook his head and said: "No, Your Majesty, the Beijing army is the most xenophobic, and these people are still the rebels before, if the Yan army enters the capital, I am afraid of trouble." ”
Li Jun nodded and continued to ask, "Then what does Dou Qing mean, where do you let them go?" ”
"Hang Aishan." Sinus Guan replied with his head down.
After hearing this, Li Jun frowned and said, "Tell me the reason." "Hangai Mountain is a dangerous terrain here, and it is sandwiched between Beiliao and Beijin, and it will definitely be a battleground for soldiers in the future.
Dou Guan sighed and said: "Your Majesty, this is not what the minister meant, this is what Yi Chuan, the current commander of the Yan army, means, it is he who implores the minister to speak to His Majesty, please forgive Your Majesty." ”
Li Jun said angrily: "You go back and tell Yi Chuan, let Yi Chuan enter Beijing now, and let him explain this matter to me personally." ”
"Your Majesty, you must not, now the 30,000 Yan soldiers are panicking, if you let Yi Chuan enter Beijing at this time, without the commander to appease, I am afraid of mutiny." Dou Guan immediately admonished.
What Dou Guan said was very reasonable, it was indeed not suitable for Xuan Yichuan to enter Beijing at this time, so Li Jun continued to ask: "What will happen to Yi Chuan?" ”
Dou Guan smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, this person and the minister are only one side, so the minister doesn't know much about him, if you really want to know, let's ask Gao Shuai, Gao Shuai used to be this person's boss, this time Yi Chuan finally fought back, also because he didn't want to meet Gao Shuai." ”
Hearing Dou Guan's answer, Li Jun was also a little disappointed in Dou Guan, as the chief of staff of a country and the number two person in the military, he couldn't even understand the character of the general of the local army, it was really a dereliction of duty, so Li Jun waved his hand to let him retreat, and then immediately announced that Gao Zhe entered the palace.
Gao Zhe soon entered the palace, and Li Jun told Gao Zhe everything he had just said to him, and Gao Zhe immediately knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the following words of the old minister may offend Your Majesty, please forgive Your Majesty." ”
Li Jun hurriedly helped Gao Zhe up and said, "Old general, what does this mean, if you have something to say, you can say it." ”
Gao Zhe sighed and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister feels that he can send Yi Chuan to Hangai Mountain, but forget about the 30,000 Yan army, there will be a big war in Hang Aishan in the future, at this time you send the Yan army over, I am afraid that everyone will think that you are using the hands of the Northern Liao and Northern Jin people to kill people." ”
"I didn't mean that." Li Jun hurriedly shook his hand.
Gao Zhe said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this old minister knows, but the world doesn't know." ”
"Since this can't be done, what should Yan Junzhen do?" Li Jun asked helplessly.
"Your Majesty, this matter is very simple, 10,000 Imperial Forest Army went north, and the Yan Army withdrew 10,000 to Beijing, which means that the two sides will be exchanged, and then the remaining 20,000 Yan Army, if you want to go to Hang Ai Mountain, you will go, and if you don't want to go, you will retire, it's a big deal to recruit people again, which not only shows Your Majesty's trust in Yan Land, but also will not make a mistake, and the Royal Forest Army still has 2,000 god horses, which can ensure that Hang Aishan is not lost." Gao Zhe touched his beard and said.
Sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy, Gao Zhe's words made Li Jun suddenly brightened, and Li Jun clapped his hands and said: "Old general, what a clever plan, I will make an order now." ”
"Your Majesty." Gao Zhe said modestly.
After Li Jun finished his holy decree, he suddenly sighed again and said, "Alas, old general, you said that if Chief of Staff Dou is also as thoughtful as you, then how big is my heart in the province?" ”
Li Jun nakedly released a signal of his dissatisfaction with the sinus tube, Gao Zhe didn't want to get involved, but he couldn't bear to let the sinus tube fall into a bad end.
So after a little thought, he said: "Your Majesty, this is wrong, the chief of staff of the army is not the commander, and he doesn't need a temperament like Dou, he needs a temperament like Lord Dou, who understands great etiquette and is not pedantic, so the old minister feels that Lord Dou is very suitable for the post of chief of staff, if Your Majesty really gives him a commander, it will really hurt him." ”
Gao Zhe said this, and Li Jun had no choice but to reply curtly: "The old general misunderstood, and I still believe in the loyalty of Chief of Staff Dou." ”
The two chatted a few more words, Gao Zhe said goodbye and left the palace, Li Jun wiped the sweat on his head and said with a bitter smile in his heart: "It seems that I am still a little anxious for quick success, the current military is not in charge, and it is not appropriate to move more." ”
The military camp outside the city of Jizhou in Yandi was very quiet during this time, the noisy noise before was gone, and it was as calm as death, if an experienced general came here, he would find that such a scene was the most terrifying, not to die in peace, but to explode in peace, and the army was originally a violent machine, so it may break out in peace.
Yi Chuan also felt that something was wrong, he had been writing for a long time, but no one in the capital came, just sent 30,000 Liaodong troops to surround him, Yi Chuan assessed the combat strength of himself and the Liaodong army, and found that he had no chance of winning on his side, not to mention anything else, the two thousand gods had no way to deal with it, not to mention that there was not much gunpowder in the camp now.
Yi Chuan let out a long sigh, and at this moment, Yi Chuan's lieutenant general broke in, and Yi Chuan asked unhappily, "What is so flustered?" ”
"General, just now I visited the Malay newspaper, and there are 10,000 more troops outside the camp, and it seems that the banner is the Imperial Forest Army, by the way, there is also a messenger who is out asking to see you." The adjutant general said breathlessly.
Yi Chuan immediately replied: "Hurry up and ask the messenger to enter the camp." ”
"No, the last will obey."
The messenger is Ji Meng's lieutenant general, and Li Jun is not at ease about others doing this, so he still sent his hardcore henchman Ji Meng.
The messenger entered the Yan military camp, and he didn't dare to hold it up, and when he saw Yi Chuan, he immediately dismounted and saluted: "The last general, Zhang Budo, will see General Yi." ”
Zhang Budo's name Yi Chuan has also heard of it, this person is the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army, and he is also Ji Meng's most trusted general, since this person came forward this time, it means that the matter is not trivial, and it is very likely that Ji Meng is also here.
Yi Chuan had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but he still said with a smile on his face: "General Zhang, let Yi wait." ”
Zhang Budo stood up and said with a smile to Yi Chuan: "General Yi, organize everyone to receive orders." After saying that, he took out a bright yellow holy decree from his bosom.
"Edict."
Yi Chuan didn't dare to slack off, and soon gathered all the people, Zhang Budo walked up to the high platform and shouted: "Yan Jun takes the order." ”
With a "hula", the 30,000 Yan soldiers knelt down at the same time, but it could be seen from their hands holding their weapons that they were actually very nervous in their hearts.
Zhang Budo saw that no one objected, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, opened the holy decree and read: "King Yan rebelled, my heart hurts very much, but there are 30,000 good soldiers rehabilitated, I am very relieved, today the Yan army is specially given as a loyal army, and 10,000 warriors from the loyal army are selected to enter the Royal Forest Army, come to Beijing to protect my safety, the former commander of the Yan army Yi Chuan has made meritorious service in governing the army, and continues to serve as the commander of the loyal army, and the rest of the officers do not move, no fault, the people who died in the battle with Yan Rebellion this time can enter the monument and enjoy the sacrifice forever." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live." The generals shouted.
Zhang Budo smiled and handed over the holy decree to Yi Chuan and said, "General Yi, take the decree." ”
Yi Chuan knelt on the ground again and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”
Zhang Budo laughed and helped Yi Chuan up and said: "General Yi, this time His Majesty wants you to take troops to Hangai Mountain, General Yi must not misunderstand, this is recommended by Gao Shuai personally." ”
When Yi Chuan heard that it was Gao Zhe's idea, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and Yi Chuan smiled bitterly: "General Zhang, Yi's heart to kill the enemy and serve the country has never changed, but with the 20,000 people of the loyal army now, he went to Hangai Mountain to die." ”
Zhang Budo squeezed his eyebrows and said: "The general has a hundred hearts, Your Majesty will not let you die in vain, 10,000 loyal soldiers went to the Royal Forest Army, and the Royal Forest Army will also send 10,000 people to the loyal army, and there are also 2,000 divine horsemen among them, the last general is not talented, and he will be your deputy general in the future." ”
"Haha, it's a good thing, Brother Zhang, in the future, we will be brothers who eat in a pot." Yi Chuan laughed when he heard this.
Zhang Budo shook his head and said, "Yi Shuai, it's not possible yet, Ji Shuai is still waiting outside for delivery." ”
Yi Chuan patted his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, I almost forgot about this, let's go, let's go see Ji Shuai now." ”
The two came to the military camp outside the city to meet Ji Meng, Ji Meng's face was very ugly, the soldiers he had worked so hard to train had not come in handy, so he would give it to others, and no one would be in a good mood, but now that the wood was in the boat, Ji Meng had no choice but to bow his hand to Yi Chuan and said: "General Yi, Ji's brother will be entrusted to you in the future." ”
Yi Chuan hurriedly returned the salute: "Ji Shuai, each other." With that, they both burst out laughing.
