Chapter 131: Swords Like Water (continued)
Yuwen Wen rarely has a thunderous situation, but now it is about to appear, not to transform into a werewolf in Huangzhou, but the words "and knives like water" that Changshi Weixuan said ignited his anger.
And the knife is like water, Wu Yan wins the snow, and the slender hand breaks the new orange. At the beginning of the temperature, the beast smoke continued, and the relative sitting was in tune.
Whisper and ask: To whom do you stay? There have been three shifts in the city. The horse is slippery and the frost is thick, so it is better to go to rest, and there are few people.
Yu Wenwen knew that the title of this poem was "Youth Tour, and the Sword is Like Water", which was made by Zhou Bangyan, a lyricist in the Northern Song Dynasty, and also knew that it was said that this Zhou Caizi and the famous prostitute Li Shishi were confidants, and one day the two had a tryst in Li Shishi's bedroom, and Zhao Guanjia (Song Huizong Zhao Ji) suddenly came.
Because Zhao Guan's family came too suddenly, Zhou Bangyan had nowhere to hide but to hide under the couch, silently listening to Master Li use a Bingzhou knife to cut oranges for Zhao Guan's family, talk about music and flirtation, and then Zhao Guan's family was on the couch to honor Master Li, and Zhou Bangyan could only listen silently under the bed.
My sweetheart was in various postures and cool by other men, but he could only listen under a board, didn't dare to rush out, and was powerless to change anything, and then there was this poem.
In Yu Wenwen's view, this poem embodies the sadness and helplessness of the cuckold man, in other words, it is a classic scene common to many small yellow texts, which looks cool as a reader, but it is not good as a bitter master.
Wei Xuan inexplicably said "and knives are like water", Yu Wenwen, who is extremely sensitive to "green hats", ignored the chronological order, and reflexively thought that the other party scolded him as a "green hat man".
At that moment, he couldn't help but bring himself into the perspective of the bitter master, so the murderous aura rushed up.
This kind of insult, Yuwenwen will never accept it, the last Yuwenyun who wanted to cuckold him, even if he is the son of heaven, has been slashed by him, so...
"Wei Gong, the widow doesn't know the meaning of the knife like water, why don't you explain one or two?"
Yu Wenwen almost burst out of his teeth with these words, although he respectfully called the other party "Wei Gong", his eyes were fierce and murderous, and Tian Liuhu, who was standing behind Wei Xuan, couldn't help but shudder when he saw this.
In Tian Liuhu's opinion, no matter what situation he faced, King Xiyang was confident, he was always smiling, and he had never seen King Xiyang so murderous.
It's like a man-eating tiger about to roar and pounce on its prey, tearing it apart and eating it.
Wei Xuan felt Yuwenwen's strong hostility, but he didn't flinch, and met Yuwenwen's gaze and said, "King, do you remember the Battle of Jinyang?" ”
"For hundreds of years, there have been countless large and small wars in Jinyang, and the widow doesn't remember so much."
"It is the Battle of Jinyang when Qi is destroyed."
"Huh?" Yu Wenwen was speechless for a while, he didn't know what the similarities between the past that Wei Xuan talked about and the current war.
Wei Xuan couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Yuwen Wen's hostility decrease, it was the first time he saw Yu Wenwen on the verge of anger, if the other party really cut him down with a knife, he was afraid that there would be nowhere to redress if he was wronged.
"King, that's the fifth year of Jiande..."
Wei Xuan began to explain, fourteen years ago, the Zhou State attacked Qi, Zhou Tianzi Yuwen Yong drove the expedition in person, and after a hard battle, he attacked the outside of Jinyang City, which was where the Gao clan was located, which was extremely important, so there was the Battle of Jinyang of Zhou Qi.
The Zhou army, which had an absolute superiority in strength, surrounded Jinyang and attacked the city from four directions at the same time, and the Qi army defending the city was isolated and helpless, and sooner or later it would be finished.
Yu Wenyong personally commanded the attack on the east gate of Jinyang, and the morale of the soldiers who had been supervised by the Son of Heaven was high, and they took the lead in breaking through the east gate.
As a result, the Zhou soldiers who entered the city were met with stubborn resistance in the city, and the Qi army, who went out of the city to fight in the north of the city, learned that the Zhou army had entered the city, and suddenly outflanked it, entered the city from the east gate, and blocked Yuwen Yong in the city.
The Zhou army, which was attacked on the back of the enemy, was almost wiped out in the bloody street fighting, and Yuwen Yong almost died in the city, and it was the newly surrendered Qi general He Bavoen who desperately escorted him out of the city to avoid a great reversal.
Yu Wenwen came back to his senses when he heard this, and then felt very embarrassed, of course, it is impossible for Zhou Bangyan to have Zhou Bangyan's "Youth Tour: The Sword is Like Water" in this era, so he just thought too much about himself.
In order to hide his embarrassment, he muttered: "Jinyang, and the state state, and the state knife is sharp, and the world knows it, and the knife refers to the army?" Wei Gong wants to advise the widow not to attack easily, so as not to be bitten by the rout? ”
"That's exactly what Xia Guan meant." Wei Xuan saw that Yuwen Wen's hostility had completely subsided, and continued: "The king, if the war is unfavorable, the prince will lead the cavalry into battle, and the lower officials will not dare to stop it, and now, the king does not need to take risks for the sake of merit. ”
"The widow is not fighting for merit, and there is no need to fight for merit."
"Ah, it's the lower official who lost his word."
"It doesn't matter."
Yu Wenwen waved his hand to show understanding, and gave up the idea of getting on the horse to pursue, Wei Xuan stopped him for his good, although he was not for merit, but the truth was correct: his own side won a big victory, and he personally pursued as the commander of the whole army.
The idea of capturing Yu Chi Youqi alive, after such a toss from the other party, Yu Wenwen was no longer so persistent.
If Providence allows him to reunite with his wife and children as soon as possible, then the pursuers will definitely be able to capture Wei Chi Youqi alive, if Providence is not like this, it is useless for him to chase him personally.
If he can't catch Wei Chi Youqi and can't exchange hostages, he must lead his army to Yecheng and bring his wife and children back.
Yu Wenwen, who had a good idea, began to arrange the pursuit, and Wei Xuan watched from the sidelines, and his thoughts couldn't help but go back to the past.
The Battle of Jinyang was really a nightmare for Yu Wenyong, who escaped death, because the battle was too tragic, and the soldiers who took the lead in entering the city with Yu Wenyong can really be described as suffering heavy casualties.
The people who can be the personal companions and guards of the Son of Heaven are all very reliable sons of nobles, young heroes, and henchmen promoted by the Son of Heaven, and almost all of them were killed in that battle, which can be described as tragic.
Li Yan, the son of Li Bi, Yang Zhong's son Yang Quan, He Lanxiang's son He Lancan, and Wei Xiaokuan's son Wei Zong, all died in battle in order to protect the Son of Heaven.
There are also cronies and close ministers raised by the Son of Heaven: Mo Rendan, Lu Shan, etc., these are all henchmen whom Yuwenyong trusts extremely and focuses on cultivating, and sooner or later they will be entrusted with important tasks, and the future is immeasurable, and as a result, they all died in battle to protect the Son of Heaven.
Mo Rentan died in the Dongmen Gate, and Lu Shanzhan died in the alleys of the city, both of them were the pillars of their respective families, and their deaths directly led to the decline of the family, and they have since declined.
In addition, many Zhou generals also died in this battle, such as Shi Wansui, the head of the march who is now pursuing the enemy, and his father Shi Jing was also killed in the battle of Jinyang.
Such shocking casualties originated from the fact that the Son of Heaven Yuwen Yong was in a hurry to enter the city, and as a result, he was caught in the enemy's attack on both sides, in order to escort the Son of Heaven to break through, those loyal to the Son of Heaven's powerful children, confidants and generals, and many loyal and brave soldiers, sacrificed their lives.
It can be said that the reason why the Qi army failed to close the east gate of Jinyang and trap Yuwen Yong was that the corpses of these loyal ministers and good generals resisted the city gate and could not be closed, so that Yu Wenyong was able to escape from the city, and the countless corpses he stepped on under his feet were all the pillars of his painstaking cultivation.
If Yu Wenyong hadn't been in a hurry to fight for merit at that time, he sat outside the city and divided his troops into the city, where would there be such a tragedy?
If Yuwen Yong was killed in the city at that time, then the situation between Zhou and Qi would be reversed in an instant, and it would be Zhou instead of Qi that would perish.
As Yuwen Yong's trusted minister, Wei Xuan often went in and out of the palace, and he would occasionally catch a glimpse of Yu Wenyong touching his saber in a daze when there was no one around.
The saber is a treasure knife from Bingzhou, the sun shines on the blade, like the surface of the water, the sunlight reflects on Yuwen Yong's face, it seems to reflect a little tears, that is the Son of Heaven in memory of the loyal generals who died in the battle of Jinyang, chagrined, sad.
And the knife is like water, moisturizing the face like tears, Yu Wenyong at that time may not be in a hurry to enter the city on the day of self-blame, the desolation like a white-haired person sending a black-haired person impressed Wei Xuan.
Wei Xuan felt that if those people had not been killed, Yang Jian should not have been so easy to take power and usurp the throne when the elephant was in turmoil in the second year.
Yang Quan, like Yang Zhan, is the son of Yang Zhong, the late Duke of Suiguo, and they are both trusted and reused by Yuwen Yong, and these two have never dealt with their brother Yang Jian, and their wives Wei Chi, Yuwen and Yang Jian's wife Dugu also do not deal with each other, and quarrel all day long.
If Yang Jian was still alive at that time, and he and Yang Zan constrained Yang Jian together, Yang Jian would not have come to that point.
In the past, thinking too much about it will only be sad, Wei Xuan has been the marshal of the Southeast Road Marching Army, and he has seen with his own eyes how proud the King of Xiyang is in the talents he has cultivated and promoted, at this critical moment, he does not want the tragedy to happen again.
Not to mention that King Qi solemnly asked him to put a hitch on the fierce horse of King Xiyang, and he couldn't let him do whatever he wanted, so that he would cause trouble.
Therefore, when Yuwen Wen was about to attack, Wei Xuan had to stop the other party no matter what, so as to prevent him from attacking rashly for the sake of merit and being in danger for no reason, Yu Wenwen's move was completely unnecessary.
Because Yu Wenwen is the commander of the whole army in this battle, his great achievements will definitely not be less.
Retracting his thoughts, Wei Xuan looked at the wilderness to the east, where the fires flickered, shouts everywhere, and his own soldiers were chasing the rout, and the battle was finally settled, and there was no doubt that it was a great victory!
