Chapter 30 Bloodless Soldiers
In the fifth year of Xianqing (660 AD), the twenty-fourth day of August in autumn, two quarters later.
In the slum area of Si Yucheng, the forbidden woman's house, outside the east wing of Wukang Station, staring at the iron lock of the house in a daze. The fat translator nodded and bowed, and the steamed bun's face was full of sneers, telling about the family situation. The surname of this family is Jie, the old man died young, and the old woman pulled the second son.
The old woman lived in the main house and died of illness in March this year, and the brothers lived in the east and west compartments. The eldest son is a wealthy businessman, with a thousand dollars in his waist, a thousand bells in his family, and eight houses. The second son, Jieren, was incapable, just an ordinary soldier, and a poor family with four walls.
If it is common sense, the two are the same mother, and the younger brother is so difficult, the elder brother should help. Jiefu didn't think so, not only did he not help his brothers, but he took half of the old house. The east chamber is magnificent, decorated with precious furniture, and usually does not live, so the door is controlled with an iron lock.
Jieren and the Black Tooth clan, the only daughter of the two, are crowded in the dilapidated West Chamber. Black Tooth is a Baekje surname, and Wu Kang can't help but think of the famous general Black Tooth Changzhi. The people of Baekje supported the Yu people, and after the Tang Dynasty, they made brilliant achievements, and they were knighted as the Duke of Yan and quelled Li Jingye's rebellion.
was later forced to die in prison by the cool official Zhou Xing, which is really embarrassing. Wu Kang secretly decided that in the future, I will protect him, it is rare to cross the Tang Dynasty, and I will always change some history. Such a fierce general, even if the crime is unforgivable, he will die on the battlefield.
The fat translator continued to say that after the heavenly soldiers came, Xiongjin Bay was defeated, and Jieren did not go home, and it is estimated that he died in battle. The story is very sad, and Qian Shun sneered: "The rich are scathing and mean, regardless of brotherhood, which can be called rich and unkind." ”
The fat translator interjected: "General Qian doesn't know anything, Jiefu is a fan of Tiantang, and he is loyal to Tiantang. Marshal Su broke through the outer Guo, and the wealthy poured all their wealth to buy grain, grass and cloth to comfort the soldiers of the Heavenly Empire. The mansion where General Wu stayed, as well as the food and clothing, were all provided by Mr. Jie. ”
Qian Shun was even more disdainful, Wu Kang smiled silently, and the rank of wealth was quite strange, compared to Cixi of the Qing Dynasty, between the two. With thousands of wealth in his pocket, he does not help his own brothers, but he pours his money into helping foreign enemies. It is better to give friends than to domestic slaves, and the eight-character mantra of betraying the country is vividly embodied.
Draw out the iron horizontal knife, walk to the door of the wing, and cut the padlock chain. Seeing that Shunzi was indignant, he pursed his lips and smiled: "The inheritance left by the old man, the two brothers, should be divided equally." It is also human nature for the wealthy to inherit property and not let outsiders interfere. ”
Turning around and walking into the wing, the furniture is antique, and the porcelain calligraphy and paintings of the Tang Dynasty are all worth a lot. motioned for Qian Shun to sit down and continued: "He made a fortune, whether he helps his brother or not, and how he uses his wealth, is his own business, and outsiders are not allowed to say anything. So Junko, what you just said is a moral kidnapping. ”
Qian Shun scratched his head with an embarrassed smile, wiped the chair diligently, and waited for the big guy to sit down. Tell the Black Tooth clan to hurry up and cook porridge first, and then chat with the big guy. Instruct Baekje to translate, it's none of your business here, go and guard outside the gate. Greet Lori with a smile, the same age as the little lady, play with the big guy, and comfort the lovesickness.
Organized and arranged, they acted immediately, and Wu Kang smiled dumbly. The sandbag was returned to the girl, asked her to go outside to play, and beckoned Qian Shun to sit down. The two brothers chatted easily, and Qian Shun gushed endlessly: The army that Dairen serves is stationed in Xiongjin Bay and blocks our landing.
After the defenders were defeated, they had completely dispersed, and Daihito did not return home, and it is estimated that nine times out of ten, he died in Kumazu Bay. This is funny, kill the husband of the Black Tooth clan and let her cook porridge and serve; If it weren't for the vow, she would have been forced to sleep. Killing women and sleeping with women is a war of aggression.
Scanning the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, I sighed at their ending, and suddenly thought of something. Soon fell into deep thought, and after I don't know how long, I gradually showed a sly smile, and the smile became more and more unbridled. At this time, he smelled the fragrance of rice, Qian Shun tested the poison with a silver needle, and handed it over with a bowl.
The rice porridge is steaming, more delicious than corn cookcakes, and I haven't eaten it for a long time. Take the chopsticks and start moving, feel the sight, and follow the past. Lori stared at the hot porridge, kept pursing her lips, and Blacktooth trotted over and pulled her daughter away. Wu Kang shouted to stop and ordered lightly: "Give her a bowl and leave it for dinner." ”
Qian Shun immediately arranged, the fat man entered the room to translate, and the woman was flattered. Lori hugged the big bowl and gobbled it up, not afraid of being burned. It is estimated that I have not drunk white rice porridge for a long time. It's pretty dark, and if I had a niece, I wouldn't be like that.
Two bowls of porridge were put down, and the woman put down the bowl and filled a third bowl. Wu Kang touched his belly and sighed with emotion: "Baekje's rice is not inferior to Wuzhou rice, and it is fragrant and sweet to eat." It's really not easy for us to lead troops to fight and eat a comfortable meal. Half a year has you been on the expedition until now? ”
Qian Shun nodded, and in another five days, half a year. However, the big guy is wrong, Wuzhou rice is the best in the world, and Baekje is a wild land overseas, which cannot be compared. After a moment of confusion, he whispered: "With the status of the queen, you don't have to go on expeditions repeatedly. ”
Wu Kang smiled and said nothing, buried his head in eating rice porridge, it was necessary to go on the expedition. To gain a foothold in the military circles and get to know the generals is to think about the future. The prestige of the military circles is sufficient, and the emperor and queen will fight for power in the future, which can curb the actions of the abolition. Emperor Li Zhi, who was slandered, did not dare to cast a rat trap and increase the bargaining chips for Mei Niang.
There are also greater benefits, which are recognized by the guards and are invincible. In the future, whether it is the Li family, or Li Jingye, etc., they will not be able to make big waves. At the same time, in order to protect himself, the greater his military exploits, the more Li Jiu did not dare to touch me. It will not be like the samurai brothers, who will either be degraded to death or poisoned.
After drinking the fourth bowl, touch the round belly, burp comfortably, and get up to stretch your waist. Qian Shun immediately got up, quickly flicked his chopsticks, and finished eating the porridge in the bowl. Lori has no heart or lungs, and still holds the bowl and buries her head, looking like a starving ghost reincarnated.
Hei Tooth put down the bowl, ran to the east corner, brought a thousand cattle knife, and carried it on his back. The little bird looked like a human, and Wu Kang began to use his hands cheaply, rubbing off the red lip rice grains, and chewing them in his mouth, his movements were very ambiguous. The black tooth blushed and hung his head obediently, looking at the mercy of the gentleman.
Untied the bag around her waist, took out all the gold leaves, about nine pieces, and stuffed them into her hands. Black Tooth's heart trembled, she didn't have the courage to refuse, and she looked overwhelmed. Qian Shun's eyes rolled, and he lowered his voice and said: "Baekje women are lowly and unworthy of being called women, if the big guy likes it, it is not a violation of the oath." ”
Racism is not good, Wu Kang said lightly: "Eat a full meal here, think of a strategy to break the city, if it can work perfectly, you can take Siyu City without blood." Money is a thank you fee, and her tragic experience gave me inspiration. ”
stared at Qian Shun, with a serious face: "Shunzi, you remember, people do not stand without faith, and the oath must be kept." Of course, I also admit that such a mature beauty is my favorite. I have desires for her, but I can restrain them, and today's events will not be an example. ”
Qian Shun nodded again and again, and Wu Kang continued to instruct: "I'll go to Jiefu and inquire about the situation in the city, hoping to get something." At least half an hour, more than an hour, I went to the Chinese military camp. You inform Lao Su and call all the governors. ”
After saying that, he left the wing room and instructed Baekje to translate and go to Jiefu immediately. Leaving the Jie's courtyard, he parted ways with Qian Shun and followed the translator westward. After taking a hundred and ten steps, she turned abruptly, and the woman poked her head out, gazing affectionately. Helplessly waved goodbye, I really couldn't understand, what was she thinking?
The fat translator led the way, found three courtyards, and finally found the main owner. Jiefu wagged his tail and begged for mercy, smiled with a fat face and a chrysanthemum, and regarded Wu Kang as his father. The two of them talked about the study, and the rich knew everything, detailing the city, what troops were stationed, and the relationship between them.
I feel that this trip is worthwhile, and I sincerely encourage: you are a great good citizen, and you will serve the Celestial Empire well, and your benefits are indispensable. Jiefu climaxed instantly, rubbed his hands excitedly, turned around and ran into the study, and offered a box of jewelry.
Decisively took it all, walked to the gate, and thought of the beautiful woman. The jewels were stuffed back, and he said, "Your brother and daughter-in-law have been dedicated, and she is my woman." I couldn't take her away, so I sent her the jewels and gave her a lot of help in the future. ”
Jiefu was even more excited, patted his chest and promised that he would be the ancestor in the future. Wu Kang smiled lightly, left with the translator, and went to Lao Su's house. The more you think about it, the more interested you become, and if it is not bad, the plan may succeed.
When he came to the conference room, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, the fourteen marching chiefs, except for Jin Chunqiu, had all arrived. After seeing each other, Su Dingfang said: "Change the first to enter the table, and the battle report from the Eastern Front will be reported to you." ”
Wu Kang was sitting in danger, and Su Dingfang sighed lightly: "As expected, the war on the Eastern Front is unfavorable. The Silla general Kim Yu-shin, near Xiaobaeksan, encountered stubborn resistance. The famous general of Baekje, Jiebo, led 5,000 soldiers to the death, and the battle situation was extremely anxious. ”
Everyone scoffed, and Silla's combat effectiveness has always been weak and pitiful. Wu Kang is even more disdainful, and he doesn't have high requirements for Silla, just don't drag his feet. The ridiculous big South Korea also made such battles into a TV series to praise them.
Liu Boying, the general of Zuo Xiaowei, looked at Wu Kang with a thief's eye, and said playfully: "Marshal Su held a meeting, because your cronies said that there was a good way to break the city, and invited us to take a closer look." What's the trick of changing, say it quickly, we old guys have long been impatient. ”
Kind laughter sounded, the big guy echoed, and Wu Kang got straight to the point: "The strongest fortresses are broken from the inside." The garrison of Si Yu City has three main forces. The left wing army of Buyeo Town, the most powerful, was led by Buyeo Tai and was the second son of Yici. ”
The teacup buckled the table, took the second teacup, and gently put it next to it: "The right wing army of Fuyu Town, when it confronted our army, suffered heavy casualties, and its strength was weaker than that of the left wing. Originally led by Buyeo Long, he followed Yici and fled to the north. At this moment, it is under the jurisdiction of his sister-in-law, Fuyu Wensi. ”
Buckled the third teacup and continued to analyze: "Finally, there is the Baekje coalition army, which is the weakest in strength, and it is the local army of King Qin. Commanding them is the general of Buyeo County, Jiexun, the brother of Jiebo. Buyeo Tai is the strongest, and he can't master the right wing, and the Baekje coalition army ranks to find it, which is also a violation of yang and yin. ”
These are well known, and Wu Kang then flickered: "This person from Fuyu Tai, who once lived in Goguryeo, is extremely hostile to the Tang Dynasty, and will resist stubbornly." But he was also worried, how to unite the troops and defend the inner city together? ”
The three teacups were stacked up, and he said: "It can also be said that with what kind of identity and in what name can you justifiably order all the troops in the city." Wu Kangcai is a shallow learner, and he also asked his uncles to solve their doubts. ”
The conference room was quiet, and the bigwigs had different expressions, all thinking about it. In less than two minutes, his eyes lit up, and Su Dingfang scolded with a smile: "If you have something to say, don't beat around the bush, do you want to study us?" The best status is to become the king of Baekje and nominally lead the army. ”
Wu Kang gave a thumbs up: "The teacher is right, I believe that Fuyu Tai also thinks so." It's like there's a treasure trove, and the master's family has fled, and I'm here to help him protect it. If I didn't covet it in my heart, it would be impossible. ”
Everyone scoffed, Zuo Xiao Weilang general Liu Renyuan, yin and yang weird said: "The generals who lead the troops to fight are all straight intestines, how can they change like this, nine bends and eighteen bends." Buyeo Tai did not dare to self-appoint, and many generals were not convinced, unless we helped him. ”
Dong Baode, the assassin of Longzhou, said with a smile: "General Liu is right, this favor is very helpful, as long as we attack the city." At the time of life and death, they temporarily joined forces, and Fuyeo Tai took this opportunity to proclaim himself the king of Baekje. But what you said just now is all nonsense, how can you not be bloodless? ”
Wu Kang replied: "Let's pretend to attack the city, fire crossbow arrows from a distance, and don't send guards to attack." Help Yu Tai and proclaim himself the king of Baekje. Feint for two days at most, let's pack up and put on a posture of withdrawing troops. Dare to ask your uncles, what is in mind of Fuyu Siwen at this moment? ”
Falling into contemplation again, Wu Kang was content and played with the teacup in his hand. About half an hour, Liu Boying smiled lightly: "The king and the crown prince of Baekje have fled, and now they are all alive, and Fuyutai supports the army and approves himself." If we withdraw our troops, the show will start immediately, will Buyeo Tai give in? ”
Liu Renyuan said with a smile: "It is obviously unrealistic to let the second prince help Yu Tai, take back Yici and the crown prince, and let Baekje take the throne." If the prediction is correct, he will send troops to kill Yici, kill Buyeo Long, and Buyeo Wensi, and continue to be the king of Baekje. ”
Everyone suddenly realized, and the eyes that came over it were somewhat approving. Wu Kang straightened his waist and swore an oath: "Maybe if you don't kill Yici, you can just be crowned the king, but Fuyu Long's father and son are definitely in a catastrophe." We can see through it, Fuyu Wensi is not stupid, and he also knows it. ”
looked at Su Dingfang and said conclusively: "For Wen Si, as long as the Tang army retreats, he will definitely die." If I were him, I would lead my men to surrender. With the style of the Tang Dynasty and the benevolence and righteousness of the saints, the death penalty will definitely be forgiven. ”
The atmosphere was suddenly embarrassing, the big guy was full of contempt, Su Dingfang glared, and Wu Kang hurriedly remedied: "If the country lives and dies, how can it be avoided because of misfortune and fortune, and the interests of the country are above all else." If I were Wensi, I would definitely fight to resist. As long as the country does not die, what is the gain or loss of personal life and death? ”
The effect of the show was very poor, and the disdain of everyone was even worse, so Wu Kang decisively shut up. Unexpectedly, Lao Liu, who has always been bickering, actually started a round: "For one's own selfishness, betraying national interests, every country and dynasty is endless." There is no doubt that the person who has changed will definitely fight to the end. ”
Wu Kang almost cried, cast a grateful look, and gained two white eyes. Liu Renyuan is right, such as the Great Qing Kingdom Cixi, and the Baekje Rank Wealth. It is better to give to a friendly country than a domestic slave, and would rather give it to an enemy country than to its own people, even if it is a country.
In their view, the interests of the country are equal to the interests of his family. How many people in the ruling class regard the interests of the country above the interests of the family? Therefore, he was very sure that Buyeo Wensi would rather surrender and give Baekje to the Tang Dynasty than give it to the second uncle who usurped the throne and proclaimed himself.
Liu Boying said: "The strategy of change, we pretend to attack the city and help Fuyu Tai take the throne." Two days later, the siege stopped, and in order to survive, Wen Si would lead his subordinates to surrender. In my guess, he didn't have the right to open the gates, and he would have climbed down the rope. ”
Jin Ren, the general of the left leading army, asked, and then said: "Buyeo surrendered on the right side, and the defending forces are weaker, I believe that Wen Si has a Si Hyun defense map in his hands." Where there are flaws, where to attack, he knows everything. With these secrets, we will attack the city again, and we will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. ”
Everyone agreed, and Yu Yuanhe, the assassin of Zizhou, said: "I'm afraid it's not only that, but the ordinary people in the city have long been frightened birds. The old man can assert that as long as Buyeo Wensi and Buyeo surrender, they will follow suit. ”
The discussion sounded again, the atmosphere was very relaxed, about ten minutes, the right military guard Zhonglang general, General Cao Jishu said: "If the above can be realized, the overall situation in the city has been decided. Buyeo Tai has nothing to do, and will open the city gate and surrender according to the assumption of change. ”
Liu Ren is willing to agree: "If it develops according to the plan, Buyeo Tai will fall, because there is only one way to die if you resist stubbornly." The old man secretly thought that it was very likely to achieve a bloodless break through the city. The change is amazing, he can not only charge into battle, but also strategize, and is also proficient in astronomy and geography, and the old man also wants to accept apprentices. ”
The sedan chair was carried by everyone, and the business was blown on each other, and a famous teacher made a high apprentice, which also made Su Dingfang happy. The old face smiled very strongly, and pretended to reprimand: "You must not be exaggerated, it is still a lot worse." Ask my colleagues present, who can't strategize? If you don't know astronomy and geography, how can you march and fight? ”
Wu Kang kept being humble, and the big guys' high hats were too uncomfortable to wear. However, it can be seen that the generals present have no malicious intent. Maybe I really value it, maybe I look at Mei Niang's face, and I get along with them this time, it's still very harmonious.
The discussion continued, and everyone spoke freely about the decoy strategy and refined the implementation steps. In a word, put on the biggest position and make the biggest scene. Lao Su even ordered that the winch crossbow of the building ship be dismantled and transported to the city of Sixian. As long as Buyeo Tai proclaimed himself the king of Baekje, Buyeo Wensi's defection will come naturally.
Sihyun City was destroyed, Baekje was destroyed, and the strategic goal was achieved. The atmosphere was very relaxed, and Liu Boying joked: "The old man is very confident in the plan of change." It's just a fly in the ointment, Yici and Fuyulong, who are still on the run. If we catch them, our trip to Baekje will be a complete merit. ”
Focusing his gaze, Wu Kang smiled lightly: "As long as you break through Si Xuan, you don't need us to catch it, someone will send it." The one who guarded Yici's father and son was the Baekje general You Zhi, and his ancestor was You Heng, a famous man of the Three Kingdoms. ”
It was another bombshell, the venue was silent for an instant, Su Dingfang applauded first, and the bigwigs responded one after another. It is said that the descendants of You Heng, in order to hide from the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, the family is constantly moving. If Sihyun Fortress is broken, You-sik will lose Baekje's interests and will definitely seek new benefits.
Dedication to the righteous father and son, can be called a great achievement, follow Wang Shi into Beijing, the family fell leaves back to the roots. With the merit of sacrificing prisoners, relying on the ancestor You Heng, it is easy to be an official in the Tang Dynasty. He doesn't belong to Baekje, as long as his brain is not stupid, he will make such a choice.
Everyone smiled, and they were all impressed by the planner Wu Kang. As if unburdened and relieved, Su Dingfang held a banquet. Pushing the cup for a while, Wu Kang became the target and was toasted by the wheel battle. When the wine was drunk, Lao Su said: I am a martial artist, but I can be alone!
With a high evaluation, Wu Kang was flattered and quickly put his mind at ease. If you want to be on your own, it's still far away, so let's think about the present. The situation in Si Hyun City, whether it develops according to the script, and whether Wen Si surrenders, can only wait and see...
