Chapter 1 "The Dream Before the Troubled Times, the First Awakening of the Door and the Son of Su Yunjin"

The moonlight is fading, and the wind is like a tiger.

The yellow sand stretches for hundreds of miles, and the bleak scenery is uninhabited.

The frontier fortress of the Tang Dynasty, since ancient times, there have been countless wars here.

I don't know how many hot-blooded men are buried under the yellow sand, and there is still a smell of blood in the pungent air.

Half of the generations buried the bones of the loyal on the battlefield and raised 30,000 troops to restore the territory.

This treacherous place has been given an evil name by the world: General Valley.

In the distance, the sound of horses was heard, and dust was kicked up, and an army was galloping through the valley. Above the sky, the eagle flutters its wings and soars; A loud hiss, hovering low in the midst of the army.

If you look closely, there are only 100 people, dressed in black armor and covered with black cloth. The movement was hurried, but the formation was orderly. Seeing that the sky was dark, everyone couldn't help but get anxious, and hurriedly urged the war horse under their crotch.

No doubt all were wounded, and they had experienced a brutal battle before that. The cloth that bandaged the wound had already been stained red with blood, but everyone's eyes revealed great determination, as if nothing had happened.

The army marched forward with the character "Shen", and there was a carriage in the center.

Presumably, there must have been an extremely important person in the carriage.

At the front of the army, on top of the white horse. One carries a dark red flag; There is a word "Su" written on it, and this army is the guard battalion of Su Zhen, the general of the Tang Dynasty.

Compared to the whirring outside, it was surprisingly quiet in the bumpy carriage.

The air was full of worry, and people didn't dare to come out. I saw a white goatee, white eyebrows and square face, and a person who looked like a Taoist priest holding his hair in a bun sighed heavily. Wipe the scarlet stained on his hands with a mulberry linen cloth, and the original pure green robe was also stained with mottled blood, looking at the man lying in front of him breathing in and out, his eyes were full of helplessness and a trace of the rest of his life.

"Xuan Dao Chief, how is the young master's injury?"

A deep voice broke the deadlock in the air and followed the sound. The owner of the voice, a burly man with a white cloth bandaged on his chest and a naked body. The face is full of stubble, but the voice is full of tenderness, which really doesn't match the appearance. But from the side, he was a loyal protector. He was covered with wounds, and he was still thinking about the young master who was lying there and was about to fall unconscious.

"The young master was pierced through the chest by a crossbow arrow, hurting his heart. The crossbow arrows were coated with Xixia poison, and the toxin had already penetrated into the internal organs. The road was bumpy and ambushed, and he was chased and killed, and the conditions for treatment were really limited. At this time, Xuan Jizi looked at the burly man in front of him, and couldn't help but think of the predicament these days, if there was no sacrifice of this person's life, I am afraid that everyone would have to die under this yellow sand.

"Lao Dao has already given the young master my Dragon Tiger Mountain's life-sustaining golden pill..."Xuan Jizi sighed again: "But tomorrow Yin has not yet arrived in Jiangnan, I am afraid that Da Luo Jinxian is coming, and he will not be able to return to the sky." ”

"A reckless man doesn't understand Qi Huang, but you are the number one doctor in the world, there must be a way. Today, you will use this life to save the young master, and exchange your life for your life, and you will never say anything. Before he could finish speaking, the burly man knelt on the ground.

"Duan Guard, how much is Lao Dao's life worth? Don't say you're willing, I'm willing to do it, where is there such a trick. The young master Jiren has his own natural appearance, and now he can only resign himself to fate, and I only hope that we can stop Jiangnan as soon as possible. With that, Xuan Jizi turned around and rummaged through the medical skills in the package to see if there was any other way to suppress the poison on the young master's body.

Su Zhen entrusted Gu to him on his deathbed, but now the young master is seriously injured and unconscious, and he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, so how can he have the face to see the lord under Jiuquan.

Duan Sandao knelt on the ground and didn't say a word.

The sound of yellow sand whistling outside the window was whistling, who would have thought that Duan Sandao, who had been through a hundred battles and made the enemy frightened when he heard his name, was already in tears at this time.

Su Hua had a long, long dream, as if he had woken up from a dream.

The bloody battlefield in the neighing of the iron horseman is a barren land full of corpses in the blink of an eye.

In the empty city of 10,000 people, the bustling city of busy traffic and drunken money fans is ushered in in a fleet.

Modern memories and ancient battlefields are intertwined in his mind like movie clips. The scene in front of him was so real and so false that it made him feel like he had fallen into a muddy swamp.

I can hear every move of the outside world, but when I want to open my eyes and take a look, I find that I can't use any strength.

He was a man of the 21st century, a prisoner who had just been released from a prison.

Just after he was released from prison, he walked aimlessly down the street.

Looking at the happy family on the street corner, the envy was beyond words.

If he hadn't abandoned it, he might have had the opportunity to pull his parents and show off the toys in his hand.

Did he ever hold a grudge? The reason is for sure, his ears are extremely soft, and he can't hate it over time.

Looking at the sudden truck, he didn't have time to hesitate.

This can be regarded as the redemption of dying, looking back on his life, it is unbearable to look back.

In his memory, most of his life was entrusted to the cage that trapped him in freedom.

A child who has been abandoned by his parents since he was a child has clearly gone astray in the bottom world. Even harsh judges can't help but judge him, he is an out-and-out criminal genius. If someone can discipline them, maybe they will be the dragon and phoenix among people now.

He has played countless roles in his life, and in order to fit into each role, he has learned the necessary skills by heart.

Some people study hard in the cold window, and they stand out from the crowd and are known to the world.

Some people have no teacher, and they are imprisoned and nameless.

The peaks and valleys all have the destiny of geniuses, and everything in the world has two sides: yin and yang.

Genius is unique, and genius is extremely contradictory.

He has always been at the extreme of a contradiction, he doesn't know where to go, he doesn't know how to stop.

He didn't understand the reason for living until the moment he died.

It's sad or ridiculous.

suddenly remembered Huang Zhan's scene in the movie "The Thirteen Langs of the South China Sea".

Squatting in the prison and pointing at everyone, he said: "There are only two endings for a true genius, one is to die early, like Tang Disheng, and the other is to go crazy early, like the Thirteen Langs of the South China Sea." ”

At this time, Kyoto, far away from the south of the Yangtze River, was above the Chang'an court, but a battle of deceit was launched.

The huge Jinluan Hall was silent, and when Emperor Zhao Yu of Zirenzong looked at the folds in front of him today, he couldn't help but be angry.

Youzhou Taishou Lin Yanzhou colluded with Western Xia to monopolize the supply of grain and grass for Su Zhen's army. Su Zhen, who had no food and grass, could only retreat to Yunzhou, and then sent a rescue emergency report to the Quartet of Youzhou. However, none of the troops responded, resulting in Yunzhou being broken and Su Zhen killed Yunzhou.

The military generals of Wenchen lined up on both sides, bowing their heads and armresting like a chilling cicada, for fear of touching Long Wei.

It took a long time for Renzong's majestic voice to spread throughout the entire Jinluan Palace.

"Youzhou is too guarded and guarded by himself, and he assassinated my Shenwei general. It's really interesting..."Renzong's face was full of calmness, and his tone even had a hint of a smile, but everyone knew that His Majesty was probably on the verge of breaking out at this time.

The seemingly calm Tang Dynasty has long been undercurrent. The peace of Datang for many years was won by Su Zhenrong and Ma defending against foreign enemies all his life.

When it comes to Shenwei General Su Zhen, everyone in Datang knows it.

At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, he followed the Tang Dynasty Gaozu and made great contributions to the southern and northern wars. Gaozu died and Renzong ascended the throne, and the Su family was also loyal to protect the country, and did not avoid the words of the master, Su Zhen resigned from the post of Taishi, stayed away from Chang'an and retreated to the south of the Yangtze River, and adhered to the Tang Frontier.

said that it was collusion and assassination, but Renzong didn't believe it at all. It is even suspected that it is really a coincidence or someone has been plotting for a long time.

His biggest backer, Su Zhen, is dead, and there is no talent available at the moment. The princes from all walks of life are still sitting firmly in the city, and Renzong Zhao Yu has vowed to be a good emperor since he ascended the throne.

In the past 20 years of governance, it cannot be said that it is a generation of Ming monarchs, but the Tang Dynasty has at least risen to peace in all parts of the world, and the country and the people are safe.

Above the court, the military generals were divided into two factions.

The first is Zhao Chunxin, led by the military generals faction, who advocates foreign war. The second is that the civil official is the prime minister's letter to the emperor, advocating internal affairs.

When Renzong was still the crown prince, Huangfushu worshiped as a prince, and Huangfushu taught the way of the emperor. Its literati style is known all over the world, peach and plum are all over the Shinong industry and commerce, Renzong ascended the throne and worshiped as the prime minister, and its empress Fu Liang is the queen again, it is really a very powerful minister.

Zhao Chunxin, the general of Tiance headed by the Wu faction, was also the imperial uncle of Renzong.

In his early years, he was also a member of the fierce generals who followed Gaozu, and was called the Tang Shuanglong along with Su Zhen.

Su Zhen led the Su army to guard the frontier, and Zhao Chunxin led the three armies to protect the safety of the imperial capital, each performing its own duties. Although Zhao Chunxin is the current emperor's uncle, the power of soldiers and horses in his hands is enough to raise troops to force the palace. In the past few years, rumors have spread that Zhao Chunxin ordered Su Zhen to go to Jiangnan in order to stabilize the power in his hands. Although there is no direct evidence, on the side of the couch, how can others be allowed to snore, and Renzong is also secretly slowly weakening the power in Zhao Chunxin's hands.

Over the years, the two factions have fought openly and secretly, and Renzong has also turned a blind eye.

looked at the ministers in the main hall, all bowed their heads and were silent. Zhao Yu's heart was a little uneasy, but he couldn't mess up, this mess was the key point, not only could he not mess up, but he also had to pretend that he didn't care.

"What's the news from Jiangnan?"

"Your Majesty, the Jiangnan Observation Envoy has come to report. General Su's only son, Su Yunjin, broke through the siege with the escorts, and arrived safely in Jiangnan three days ago, and now he has lived in the mansion, but he is unconscious. ”

Three days ago, it took two days for Jiangnan to get to the capital quickly, so Su Hua has been in Jiangnan for five days.

"The criminal Lin Yanzhou has fled to Western Xia, and the generals of the Quartet of Youzhou have been arrested by Dali Temple and all of them have been dismissed and investigated, and now Xuanwumen is waiting to be beheaded."

Listening to the minister's words, Renzong felt a little calmer in his heart.

The Su Yunjin in the minister's mouth is the expression of Su's painting.

The word Yun Jin is still the meaning of Yun Cheng Wanli that he personally took it, and he was cautious.

When Su Hua was a child, he once visited Jiangnan privately and met with him. I also heard that Su Hua followed his father to the battlefield when he was seven years old, and he has been proficient in all eighteen martial arts since he was a child.

"Decree: August 12 of the Tang Dynasty is set as the memorial day of General Su, and the posthumous title of King Xuanwu is posthumously crowned. All civil and military officials were dressed for three days to comfort General Su's spirit in the sky. The people of the Tang Dynasty are not allowed to slaughter banquet guests, drink and have fun, and are not allowed to sing, sing and dance within three days. Those who violate the order are all beheaded by the three clans, and the elders are on the frontier! "The Tang Dynasty has always had many kings with different surnames, and the ministers have strongly opposed it. For Su Zhen's exploits, it is understandable to be crowned king after his death.

"Your Majesty, we must abide by it."

After another boastful remark, Renzong waved his hand to signal the ministers to be quiet.

"The land south of the Yangtze River has been a military fortress since ancient times, bordering Kyoto in the north and the Bohai Sea in the south. There are both horses and horses, and there are also lions of the navy, and now that General Su is gone, the power of the soldiers and horses, I don't know what the Aiqing people think of their eldest son Su Yunjin? ”

"Your Majesty, my Tang Dynasty has been hereditary since childhood, and the power of this soldier and horse should be handed over to Su Yunjin. The minister heard that this son had followed General Su Lao to the battlefield since he was a child, and he was already seventeen years old, so he should have four points of ability. The one who spoke was Cao Boyun, the general of Yanzhou, who was born as a military general, and is now in his fifties, and he still speaks like thunder.

"I heard that General Cao was promoted by General Su when he was young, and now this statement is a bit far-fetched. Besides, Su Yunjin is far away from Kyoto, you and I are not familiar with it, and he doesn't know anything about his abilities and temperaments, how can he be in charge of the soldiers and horses in Jiangnan at a young age. Liu Wen, the Taishou of the capital, retorted.

"Humph!" Cao Boyun glanced at Liu Wen with disdain: "I don't know who contradicted General Su three years ago and was punished by the emperor." A certain statement is far-fetched, and someone's statement is more reckoning. ”

Hearing this, Liu Wen's eyebrows stood up. He has never been humiliated in his twenty years as an official, but that time he was punished for kneeling in Qinglongmen for three hours. At that time, it was a lively after-dinner conversation in Kyoto, which made this old man who was over half a hundred years old and wanted to face it really had a hard time.

"Piff! You...."Liu Wen was so angry that his body trembled a little, and he pointed at Cao Boyun and scolded: "I think you are using nepotism to consolidate your power in Yanzhou."

"Old pedant, I think you are stupid to read, I won't teach you a lesson today, you really think that a certain is a soft persimmon!" After that, Cao Boyun actually rolled up his sleeves, and he really had a posture of wanting to beat people.

"That's it! Silence for me! Above the court, there is no style of the Tang Dynasty. ”

The emperor came forward, and the two quieted down.

"Father, you used to have all kinds of opinions, but you didn't say a word to you this morning, can you explain your confusion?"

After Renzong finished speaking, the ministers all looked at the Prime Minister Huangfu Shu. In the past, if there was any indecision, the prime minister would give advice to His Majesty, but today's prime minister is uncharacteristically not saying a word.

Before Huangfu could speak, Zhao Chunxin snorted coldly; "I see that someone is weak in heart and dare not speak."

Renzong was puzzled: "Uncle Huang, why do you say this?" ”

"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister was distracted for a while, thinking back to the events of last night's dream. Only then I couldn't help but say it, Your Majesty should laugh. Zhao Chunxin is not interesting to scratch his head, the last dynasty dared to travel outside the world, after all, people are relatives of the emperor, and Renzong is not easy to punish anything, he said a few words verbally, pay attention next time, Zhao Chunxin nodded and agreed, and then he was silent.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the power of Jiangnan should be handed over to Su Yunjin." Huangfushu stretched out three fingers and said slowly: "First: Old General Su's bones are not cold, and His Majesty is depriving him of power, and some people will inevitably feel that he will cross the river and tear down the bridge. The Su family's army is loyal to Su Zhen, and naturally obeys Su Yunjin's wishes, and the Jiangnan city defense still needs the Su family.

Second: When His Majesty ascended the throne, he was only twenty years old, and now the Tang Dynasty is also peaceful. The young man should have more training, and the enemy generals are not half-buried people in the loess, how can they be young. Even if Su Yunjin has no way to lead the army, His Majesty can deprive him of his rights at any time.

Third: Jiangnan has only 30,000 troops, while Kyoto has more than 800,000. This is a gamble, and it is also His Majesty's expectation for the future of Datang, whether Su Yunjin is a dragon among people is decided by His Majesty. Now that the two states of Youyun are still in the hands of the enemy, the battle ahead is the first, please think twice. After Huangfushu finished speaking, he retreated and honestly returned to his position.

Renzong also benefited a lot when he heard it, and couldn't help but admire: he is worthy of being a father, and the pros and cons are clearly explained.

"Where is Dengzhou Taishou Yuwenfu?"

"The minister is here."

"Order you to rush back to Dengzhou on the same day, send envoys to Western Xia, and ask them to hand over Lin Yanzhou. If there is no return, he will lead an army of 150,000 to attack Western Xia. ”

Emperor Renzong fortunately did not get carried away by anger, and the salute before the soldiers was the best plan. Why didn't Zhao Chunxin lead the army, firstly, because the defenders of Chang'an should not be mobilized at this time, and secondly, he really didn't worry about his imperial uncle.

As soon as Su Zhen died, the combat power of his army was greatly weakened, and he lost the two cities of Youzhou and Yunzhou. Now that the Western Xia soldiers are strong and strong, although they have experienced a battle, they do not dare to blindly try. But if Western Xia hands over Lin Yanzhou, he can give an explanation to the world; It can also reduce the losses of the army and establish a majesty. The emperor's thoughts should really be the best of both worlds, and the society is the top priority in the face of love and hatred.

When Yuwen Fu just wanted to receive the decree of thanksgiving, Taifu Wang Yun stood up.

"Your Majesty Rongchen said that our army suffered heavy losses in the first battle of Youzhou. At present, the treasury is empty, and it is not enough to launch a military campaign against Western Xia again, please think twice. ”

"Taifu's words are wrong, and now the troops of the two states of Youyun are less than one-third of my Tang Dynasty. It's only half a month to go to Youyun, and the Western Xia reinforcements will take more than a month, so why not fight this battle? "The one who fought back at Wang Taifu was He Dian, the general of the Yulin Army.

General He's words are true, but the recent disasters in Huguang and Lingnan have been serious. If the treasury is used to attack Western Xia, then where will the tens of thousands of disaster victims of my Datang go? ”

It's okay not to say this, but it's a situation where everyone has their own opinions.

Beat? Or not to fight? Just when the dispute was inextricable, an urgent report broke the deadlock.

"Your Majesty, Su Yunjin, the eldest son of General Su, has a thousand miles of urgent news."

Su painting? Isn't it unconscious? Why did you suddenly come to the emergency report? Just when the ministers were confused, Renzong instructed the messenger to read the word.

His Majesty personally revealed: In the first battle of Youzhou, the Tang Dynasty's troops were weakened; In a short period of time, he is no longer marching to the Western Xia, and the princes must sit on the mountain to watch the tiger and enjoy the benefits of the fisherman, so when they march into the Western Xia, they will fall into Chang'an. The Great Liao in the north is eyeing the tiger, and the Western Xia is waiting for him, and His Majesty must not have this idea.

His Majesty believed that he should send an envoy to the peace talks to the Liao State, which was famous for its horses and the sharp weapons of the Tang Dynasty. It can be traded with it to promote business between the two countries. Your Majesty is not worried about going to war with Da Liao in the future, thinking about the Liao State that now has the two states of Youyun, the belly is the food of the tribes in the Western Regions, the Liao State is now suffering from internal and external troubles, and will never start a war with the Tang Dynasty, but wants to coexist peacefully with us.

Even if the two states of Youyun are taken back, they will have to face the battle between Western Xia and Liao, and if the two countries form an alliance, the Tang Dynasty will definitely suffer from the enemy. Why don't you borrow a knife to kill people, and by the time the Liao State recovers the tribes, my Datang will already be strong. And the Liao State has been exhausted from years of fighting, and the clouds are not at your fingertips? Your Majesty should make great efforts to govern the country and reform the system first. When our Datang has sufficient grain and grass and the treasury is rich, we can also be invincible in forming an alliance with western Liaoning.

The messenger couldn't help but sigh after reading the surrounding people, sure enough, it was Jiangmen Huzi, and he knew everything about the war at a young age. The head of the analysis is the Tao, and such a perfect concept of the overall situation surprised the prime minister.

Renzong smiled: "The young general, according to General Cao's words, he named Su Yunjin as a brave general and was in charge of the army in the south of the Yangtze River." ”

And our protagonist is far away in the courtyard of Sufu in the south of the Yangtze River at this time.

Wearing a white filial piety robe, he sat quietly in the courtyard and looked down and pondered, not knowing what to think.

At this time, Su Hua's heart was already overturned, and he had to accept reality.

He traveled through time, to a dynasty with an alternate history.

Although it is called Datang, it is not the Datang of Zhenguan's prosperous era.

He found a perverted ability in himself, he was a human being in two lives, and after the memories of the two fused, his mind became clear in an instant. Even when he recalled every day when he was a child, he remembered it clearly, and the books he read could be read word for word, including the time and date of each day.

This ability to defy the sky made his heart begin to stir.
