024: National hatred and family hatred

The army in the Great Zhou Dynasty drove the royal line.

"Holy ......" eunuch Gan Pei came in from outside the tent, although he walked quickly, but his footsteps fell silently.

"Daizhou captured Wang Dezhong, a pseudo-Han privy counselor, and his entourage has arrived outside the gate."

"Wang Dezhong?" Guo Rong frowned slightly and asked, "But the envoy of the puppet Han to Liao to ask for troops?" ”

Gan Pei said: "Exactly, his side came back from Liao, our army has besieged Jinyang, he can't enter the city, so he has to stay in Daizhou, which coincides with the return of Daizhou City, so he captures it." ”

"Hmmm......"

Guo Rong nodded and said, "Bring it in, I'll see him." ”

"No."

After a while, Gan Pei brought an old man with gray hair into the tent and sang a prayer.

"Flat, sit."

Guo Rong said: "Wang Qing has to run around in the year of the sixtieth year, how hard it is. ”

Wang Dezhong took Ma Zha, sat down with the corner of Shi Shiran's robe, and said: "The food of the king, the matter of loyalty to the king, how to talk about hard work." ”

"Wang Qing's trip to Liao, I think he has made great contributions to the puppet Han, I don't know when the Liao army will come?"

Wang Dezhong said with a smile: "I just sent Yang Gon, the general of the Liao State, back to China on behalf of the country, where did I get the credit for the hard work, and how did I know if the Liao army would come." ”

Guo Rong also smiled: "I see, Wang Qing is full of splendid articles, but doing such a trivial thing, it is really condescending, it is better to go back to Bianliang with me, now the Great Zhou is in ruins, and the five rites and the method of tribute hope that Wang Qing can work more." ”

"Thank you to the Holy One, I am afraid that I will no longer be able to take on a great responsibility, so please choose another good man."

Guo Rong was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "It's okay, Wang Qing has been running around for many days, and it is hard to come, so it is not too late to rest here for a few days first, and then return to Jinyang after recuperating in the spirits...... Come. ”

"The servant is here."

"Take the purple robe and jade belt, bathe and change clothes for Wang Qing, and arrange a big tent to rest."

"Yes."

Wang Dezhong stood up, bowed and saluted, "Thank you." ”

Guo Rong watched Wang get out of the account and sat for a long time.

The first time to the great treasure, the foundation is unstable, the prestige is insufficient, if you want to complete the great cause, there is a long way to go.

The face is not with the actual support of the Dinghaishen needle tumbler Feng Daoxue.

Can the troika of Zheng Renxue, Fan Zhen, and Wang Pu, who stayed in Bianliang, stabilize the situation?

Li Gu plans for grain and grass, can it be in place on time?

Can the Jinyang City in front of you be captured?

Guo Rong pressed the faintly aching temples, summoned the inner servant to fetch water to clean his face, and used the cold well water to calm his face, Fang Jue was refreshed, and then he lifted his spirits, and began to comment again.

is holding a pen, and the co-driver deploys Bai Chongzan outside the account to ask for a meeting.

"Bai Qing, what's the matter with a sad face?"

"Qi Song Sheng, because of the difficulty of grain transportation, three meals are difficult to satisfy, the sergeants of the various departments are difficult to restrain and plunder, and the people in the surrounding places have suffered greatly, according to the report of the exploration horse, many places have begun to resist, or the village refuses to defend, or retreats to the valley to protect itself, in the long run, I am afraid that it will not be good for the army."

"Bastard."

Guo Rong slammed the brush in his hand, and he couldn't care about the ink splashing on his body, so he got up and said angrily: "It's lawless, plagiarism is prohibited, and the edict to appease the peasants has already been issued, why do such evil things happen......"

"Immediately gallop and gallop, and it is strictly forbidden to plunder."

"You will go with the sword of Shang Fang, form a law enforcement team, and once you find anyone who disturbs the people and harms the people, no matter which one you have, you will immediately behead it and show it to the public."

"Yes."

Guo Rong nodded to the table and said to the eunuch Gan Pei: "Order the Hanlin scholar to undertake Xu Taifu to draft a notice to calm the people, and all parts of Hedong will stop the collection of taxes for this year, and more articulate people will go to various places to proclaim, and in areas where the damage is serious, pay special attention to words, and everything is based on stability." ”

"No."

Bai Chongzan and Gan Pei came out of the tent one after another, and some of the attendants saw that Guo Rong's anger had subsided for a while, and he dared to ask the saint to change his clothes, and he was frightened by the word "roll", and he really rolled out of the tent.

The anger here has just subsided, and the bad thing has come again, but it is the old general Liu Ci who has deployed Liu Ci to personally bring the scout's Hongling to expedite.

"The vanguard of the Liao soldiers of the puppet Han reinforcements has arrived in Daidi, although Fu Yanqing led the troops to repel, but the Liao soldiers retreated to Xinkou, and they could not be driven away for a while, and our army could only resist according to Xinzhou......

Fu Yanqing was afraid that once the main force of the enemy army arrived, it would be difficult to resist with only more than 10,000 horse infantry in Xinzhou, so he asked for more troops. ”

Guo Rong suppressed his anger, paced to the map and pondered for a long time, Fang turned his head to look at the old general with white hair, and asked, "Old General Liu, what do you think is better to send help?" ”

Liu Ci played: "The Liao soldiers have many cavalry and shooting, and the foot soldiers are difficult to beat, and only the elite horsemen can match them." ”

"Hmm...... Order: Order Zhang Yongde and Li Yun to lead 3,000 iron cavalry to aid Xinzhou, and not to let the Liao army go deeper. ”

"Yes."

Watching the waiter take the tiger talisman and hurry away, Guo Rong sat down tiredly and motioned for Liu Ci to sit down and speak.

He asked, "How are the siege preparations going?" ”

Liu Ci coughed lightly, organized his language a little, and said: "Since the siege was not considered when the troops were dispatched, the siege equipment was not brought, and all of them were temporarily made under the city.

And Jinyang city is dangerous, the moat is wide and deep, it is not easy to break the flow for a while, and there are more than ten tunnels dug by Hantong, all of which stop under the city, and it is difficult to cross the river.

Therefore, it will take some time, and the city will be attacked in half a month at the earliest. ”

"Half a month, it's really too long......"

Guo Rong sighed slowly, "Can you speed up the progress?" ”

Liu Ci shook his head and said: "There is a shortage of manpower, in Xinzhou alone, Fu Shuai has pulled more than 10,000 elites, and the people around here don't dare to levy more, so ......"

……

Jinyang City Head.

Liu Chengjun, the new emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty, dressed in sackcloth and wrapped a white cloth filial piety scarf around his head, inspected the city garrison accompanied by several civil and military ministers, and cordially expressed his condolences to the officers and soldiers guarding the city.

He was wearing a new filial piety, his father who was stabbed in the Zhou camp had not yet been buried, his filial piety clothes had not been taken off, and his aunt, the Empress Dowager Li of Han Zhao, who had been trapped by the Zhou court in the West Palace of the Bianliang Imperial Family, died of fear.

This Li is a legendary figure, and his story has been compiled into plays such as "The Grinding Plate Society", "The Story of the Red Robe", "Wind and Snow Cold Plum Li Sanniang" and so on.

To the effect that she and the Later Han Dynasty ancestor Liu Zhiyuan in the horse shed privately agreed for life, married life is very difficult, planting melons and planting hemp for a living, when giving birth is still in the mill to grind, because no one delivers, after giving birth to a son, can only bite the umbilical cord with teeth, this person called "bite the umbilical Lang" The child is the Later Han Dynasty Emperor Liu Chengyou.

She once advised Liu Zhiyuan when he raised troops in Taiyuan and wanted to collect heavy taxes from the people, "Fang is now in trouble, called a volunteer soldier, and the people do not know the benefits and take their wealth first, and they are not the new son of heaven, so they want to save the people." In the future, the palace will have it, please know it, although it is insufficient, the scholar will not complain. ”

Liu Zhiyuan adopted it, won the support of the military and the people, and achieved the imperial cause.

He also advised Emperor Liu Chengyou when he wanted to kill the ministers Yang Wei and Shi Hongzhao: "This important matter should also be discussed with the prime minister." ”

Liu Chengyou didn't listen, and he lost three of his life.

Finally, when the hidden emperor Liu Chengyou was about to murder Guo Wei, he persuaded again: "Guo Wei is my family, if it is not his danger, how can he come here!" Today, if the army does not move, with the edict of the might, the authority must be said, then the monarch and the minister, the number of people is still complete. ”

Liu Chengyou still didn't listen, and the Qianqiu Emperor died in one day.

Perhaps it was the poverty and hardship of his youth that caused Liu Chengyou's loneliness, low self-esteem, and narrow-mindedness, which laid the groundwork for the tragedy.

However, everything is far from the past......

Liu Chengjun's filial piety was newly tied in front of all the soldiers in the city.

Facing the officers and soldiers of the three armies who were on duty and turned their heads to salute him, Liu Chengjun said sadly; "The hatred of the country and the hatred of the family depends on the kings......

The anti-Zhou soldiers approached the city, resulting in the destruction of our homes in the Han Dynasty, and the destruction of hundreds of thousands of people's families.

Now, the Great Liao reinforcements have arrived in Xinzhou, and they will arrive in Jinyang in a few days, and the enemy will be broken just around the corner. ”

Liu Chengjun finished speaking with tears in his eyes and bowed.

The Han army seemed to be stunned by this sudden salute, and they all did not move, and time suddenly stood still in this instant.

Not far away, a young general unsheathed his sword, knocked on his shield, and raised his arms and shouted: "Protect the country and defend the family, rest with the city!" ”

Only then did the three armies come to their senses and shouted in unison: "Protect the country and defend the home, rest with the city......"

"Defend the country and the home, rest with the city......"

The high voice shouted three times in a row under the leadership of the general, and the sound shook the sky.

Liu Chengjun glanced at the young general gratefully, and saw that he was only in his twenties, with a long tiger's back and an ape waist, steady as a mountain, and felt familiar, and he couldn't remember his name for a while, so he took two steps forward and asked, "I don't know the name of this general?" ”

"The last general guards and commands Yang Ye, meet the lord."
