Chapter 117: Precursor

At night, Shaheyi, the emperor drove to camp here, and after a night's rest, he continued to return to Yecheng the next day. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xiangguo went south to Xiangguo County to govern Yiyang for about 60 miles, if you ride a horse gallop, you can arrive in half a day, but the emperor's chariot set off from Xiangguo in the afternoon, and a large group of people and horses accompanied by it, and the speed of advance is not much faster than walking.

The emperor naturally rode by car or horseback, but most of the accompanying palace maids, eunuchs and other miscellaneous servants could only walk, so traveling forty miles a day was not bad, and the battle of this trip was relatively small.

Back then, Yuwen Wen was a guard in the palace as a child of the clan, and he saw how magnificent the pomp of Emperor Yuwenyun of Tianyuan was.

Once, Yu Wenyun went from Chang'an to the adjacent hometown of Tongzhou, and the Chinese army (forbidden army) soldiers of the Su guard walked five steps and one post along the way, so they arranged to the Tongzhou Palace from Chang, Yuwen Wen was considered a 'senior guard', and he could ride a horse to avoid the pain of standing guard.

Went to Luoyang again, the pomp was still grand, at that time Yuwenyun ordered his four queens to line up, and at the same time drove forward in parallel, whoever was slow or fast had to be scolded, and many palace maids and eunuchs complained bitterly, and the majesty of the Son of Heaven was shaken to the extreme.

In contrast, Yuwen Qiankeng's pomp and circumstance is decent, because the movement speed is slow, so he has to spend the night at Shaheyi in the middle.

The post house has long been ready to welcome the Son of Heaven to stay, of course, Yu Wenwen as an accompanying sect is also stained, you can rest in the post house, and accompany the little emperor to watch the stars at night.

Stargazing is the clairvoyant mirror offered by Yuwen Wen, which is also used as a primary astronomical scope, Yuwen Qiankeng since he got this treasure, naturally quickly discovered many uses, watching the stars and the moon is one of the fun.

"Xiyang Gong, there seem to be some potholes on the moon, I want to come to the Moon Palace to say that it is false, right?"

"Your Majesty, it seems that this is indeed the case now."

"Are there any immortals in the sky?"

"I don't know, anyway, Weichen hasn't seen it."

"Alas, I thought that the Milky Way was the Heavenly River, but it turned out that it seemed to be all stars when I looked at it with a clairglass, and it was also a rumor to come to the Heavenly Palace or something?"

"Your Majesty, maybe the Heavenly Palace is not visible to the naked eye, and Wei Chen doesn't know where the Heavenly Palace is."

Yuwen Qiankeng was very interested, Yuwen Wen chatted with him, he probably knew some basic common sense in astronomy, but in this era, talking about celestial phenomena is looking for death, the Son of Heaven can ask, the people of Qin Tianjian can answer, and as a courtier, he has to avoid suspicion.

Watching the sky day and night, what are your intentions?

Of course, Yu Wenwen has no intentions, but he just wants to avoid melons and plums, so he doesn't mind waiting for eunuchs on both sides, since they want to listen, they will listen to it, so as not to make some people feel uneasy.

"Meteorite, it's a meteorite!" Yuwen Qiankeng shouted excitedly, Yuwen Wen looked up, but it was a meteor that pierced the sky, and a moment later another meteor crossed by, not only that, but several meteors appeared in turn.

"Ah, it's a meteor shower." Yu Wenwen replied that in this era, meteor showers are called meteor showers, so he 'follows the local customs'.

"I read the classics, it is said that the appearance of a meteorite indicates good luck or calamity, does Xiyang Gong know how to judge?"

"Weichen has never studied astronomy, where do you know how to judge, now that the Great Zhou Kingdom is peaceful and the people are safe, Your Majesty does not need to worry about it."

Yuwen Qiankeng wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end, he remembered that in the classics he had read, it was said that the appearance of the meteorite shower was a precursor to an impending disaster, and even that it was an early warning of an impending national disaster or the death of a monarch.

If so, who would it be? Is it Chen Guojun, or Yang Wei of Sui State, or himself?

。。。。。。

The next day, the emperor's car continued to drive south, Yu Wenwen looked at the long line and was a little helpless, this kind of speed will take a few days to reach Yecheng, and it will just arrive in Yecheng before the Double Ninth Festival.

Maybe it's like an arrow, he is a little impatient, but no matter how anxious he is, he can't be in a hurry, Wei Chijing saw him looking around, so he rode his horse and asked what he was looking at, and heard Yu Wenwen say that he was looking at the surrounding terrain, Yu Chijing smiled:

"The Duke of Xiyang County is a good soldier, more than ten miles south of here is the water, and after the water, it is the state of Yiyang."

"Look at my memory, I went north along this road a few days ago, but now I forgot about the return trip." Yuwen Wen said with a smile, in fact, he still had nothing to say, after all, it was not to the point of Alzheimer's, and he naturally knew the terrain in this area.

The water is still quite promising, of course, this is another impression in Yu Wenwen's memory, it was the battle of the water in the early Tang Dynasty.

In the fourth year of Tang Wude, Dou Jiande's relics Liu Heimin raised an army against the Tang Dynasty, set the capital in Zhaozhou, and soon swept most of Hebei and some counties in Henan, and successively defeated Li Shentong, the king of Huai'an of the Tang Kingdom, and Luo Yi, the governor of Youzhou.

The Tang army was defeated in a row, the Qin king Li Shimin was ordered to put out the fire, after a vicious fight, the two sides launched a fierce battle in the north and south of the river in the water, the Tang army was based on the city of the water, for Liu Heimin to lead the army to attack, the Tang army general Wang Junkuo broke through, leaving a brave general to lead two hundred dead soldiers to defend the city on his behalf.

This general surnamed Luo Mingshixin, that is, the prototype of the white horse and silver gun Luo Cheng in the later Sui and Tang Dynasty Romances, Luo Shixin led 200 people to defend the city of Zhushui for eight days and nights, the Tang army outside the city has been unable to support, and finally the city fell, Luo Shixin was captured and refused to surrender and was killed.

"It's a shame to be in your twenties." Yuwen Wen sighed, although this matter has not happened in this era, it does not hinder his memory, but he feels a little 'ominous' when he thinks of this.

'It's too evil, I've been restless these days, and I won't have any moths here, right? ’

Yu Wenwen felt that he had used his brain too much, and now the emperor was driving on the official road, surrounded by plains, how could any assassin dare to assassinate, unless it was an enemy army.

But to the east of Taihang Mountain is the border of the Zhou State, and the Taihang Eight Mountains are tightly blocked, where did the enemy army come from?

Thinking of this, Yu Wenwen shook his head and forced himself to calm down, after all, it is easy to be suspicious all day, looking around, he decided to raise his eyes to look at the scenery and divert his attention.

He saw a dusty flight to the north, and it seemed that a team of horses was approaching quickly, and he thought it was a messenger of the order, but it didn't look like the momentum of the dust.

This size looks like there are thousands of cavalry!

Wei Chijing was also aware of this situation, so many cavalry were not allowed to approach the emperor's chariot quickly, he wondered which general was passing by, and he didn't notice the honor guard of the Son of Heaven in front, so he wanted to send the forbidden army over to drink.

"Let them stop, and they collided with the Son of Heaven's honor guard, but... No, why didn't the cavalry of the palace stop them! ”

Yuwen Wen heard that his whole body was agitated, and he also sensed that the situation was wrong, the Son of Heaven had a forward to open the way, and there was a guard behind the palace, and it was impossible for this group of cavalry to rush over without encountering the forbidden army behind the palace.

He took out the clairvoyant mirror and looked at it, which almost poked the clairie mirror into his eyes, because what he saw in his field of vision was a cavalry in yellow uniform, and Yuwen Wen could hardly believe his eyes, because he couldn't understand how the Sui cavalry could appear here.

"Sui Jun! It's a sneak attack by the Sui army!! (To be continued.) )
