Chapter 526: Dali's Hope, Ants Swallow Elephants
When Xie Changjin arrived in Jinguan City, Li Ruyu was not in a hurry to leave.
So I stayed with him for a few days.
It's just that he was left behind by Xie Changjinqiang.
After all, the empress's official appointment has not yet come down, and Xie Changjin was idle when he arrived in Jinguancheng, knowing that Li Ruyu was dying, he still forcibly left Li Ruyu.
Without him, the huge Jinguan City is just a Li Ruyu who has an appetite.
The real reason......
He was afraid of seeing Xu Qiuge, but for some reason, Xie Changjin could always see the autumn waves rippling in Xu Qiuge's eyes, and once Li Ruyu appeared, Xu Qiuge would transform into a dignified and virtuous second miss of the Xu family.
It's just that the identity of this second miss of the Xu family is a little unusual.
Xie Changjin couldn't have guessed.
In order to find a few more days of purity, Li Ruyu was left in Jinguancheng by all means, of course, there is actually only one truth: mother, but uncle.
If you want to marry Xiaoxiao, it seems that my meaning of Xie Changjin is also very important.
What else can Li Ruyu do?
I had to stay.
In fact, I am really happy in my heart, which proves that this future uncle, who is not much older than himself, is actually extremely favored by himself, the world is big, the small is the biggest, and the small can't beat his uncle Xie Changjin.
Fortunately, a few days later, Lin'an came to the will.
First of all, it was about the rewards of Tian Shun, An Meiqin, Su Wancheng, Zhou Jiangdong, Junziqi, Xu Xiao, Zhuo Zongtang and other meritorious heroes, Tian Shun, An Meiqin and Su Wancheng were only promoted to scattered officials and crowned lords, after all, there was no vacancy in the position of important ministers higher than them.
In fact, in addition to Zhuo Zongtang and Zhou Jiangdong, as well as other middle and low-level officers, who were famous and promoted, Junziqi added the title of Wusanguan, and still commanded the Chuanyun Army and rushed to Shouzhou.
And Xu Xiao only added the title of Wusan official and was ordered under Li Ruyu.
On the contrary, it was Zhuo Zongtang, who soared for nine days, was directly promoted from the command system to the capital system, and commanded the Tiance Army, one of the three armies of the forbidden army, and the power in his hands was not inferior to the deputy prime minister Su Wancheng.
Li Ruyu was promoted, and he was promoted to the north of the town of Fusi Qianhu, this official only jumped one level, but the rank officer was promoted by three levels, plus the five-grade Wensan official Chaofeng Doctor, and the five-rank Wusan official General Ning Yuan.
Another order Li Ruyu led his troops to patrol the four seas, and the matter was uneven.
This will is somewhat inexplicable.
Even this origin is unprecedented throughout the ages, it is said to be a Qincha, but there is no name for Qincha, but everyone knows it.
The empress's meaning is already clear.
Its purpose is to let Li Ruyu lead his troops and horses to the rivers and lakes.
Su Hanlou and Zhang Zhengliang, who had just arrived in Jinguancheng, also led the will of the empress and the dispatch of the officials, and Su Hanlou went to Liuzhou, Guangnan West Road, to serve as the governor of Guangnan West Road.
Zhang Zhengliang served as the transfer envoy of Lizhou Road, and the power was also the general judgment of Jinguancheng.
Both of them are 800 miles expedited.
Similarly, Xie Changjin's letter of appointment is also 800 miles expedited, serving as the envoy of the Lizhou Road system, and the right to be the governor of Jinguancheng.
And the real boss of Lizhou Road is an important minister of the court, and he is Wei Xi, who is a regular attendant of the left scattered horse.
Obviously, although the empress wanted to follow Li Ruyu's wishes, Xie Changjin had no choice but to have too little qualifications, so she had to put it on the military governor system of a government to train her, and let the important minister Wei Xi take it.
But it is one level higher than Zhang Zhengliang and Su Hanlou.
It's a joy for all.
It's just that from beginning to end, all the seals and rewards did not mention the god generals Xiang Yu and Yu Ji, and the couple obviously knew this and were not surprised.
As soon as the will arrived, Li Ruyu set off.
With 3,000 troops piercing the clouds, Xu Xiao and Song Ci accompanied them, left Jinguancheng and went straight to Juzhou on Guangnan West Road.
Junzi Qi took the remaining soldiers and horses of the Chuanyun Army and went straight to Shouzhou.
The horse stepped on the rivers and lakes, quelled the rebellion in Kaifeng, and kicked off at the same time.
……
……
Outside the city of Juzhou, about 100 miles, there is a mountain, the peaks are continuous, the clouds cover the mist all the year round, it is famous for the clouds and mist in the west road of Guangnan, and it is rumored that there are immortals in the clouds.
It is named Cloud Mountain.
There is an ancient tea area in the mountain, the cloud tea produced by it, also known as the Guiding fish hook tea, the tea quality is extremely excellent, it is famous in the Gaozong period, Renzong was once set as a tribute tea, the output is small and not easy to obtain.
After Shunzong ascended the throne, he didn't like to drink tea, so he cut down on the matter of tribute tea.
Cloud Mountain has also fallen.
It's just that in the past two years, there are indeed "immortals" in Yunwu Mountain.
I don't know when, it seems that when Zhao Changyi became a vassal domain, after Su Changjin was martyred on Guangnan West Road, some mysterious characters began to appear in the Yunwu Mountain.
Woodcutters or medicine pickers who often go to Yunwu Mountain to chop firewood can often see some "immortals" with fluttering sleeves soaring through the clouds, and stupidly return to the towns outside the mountains to add oil and vinegar to preach everywhere.
So there seems to be a god in the Cloud Mountain.
Because they are immortals, the dull world thinks that the young men and women in the nearby towns and villages who went to Yunwu Mountain to go on a spring and autumn tour and disappeared were all left by the gods in Yunwu Mountain as immortal servants.
But the government didn't believe it.
Fortunately, after Zhao Changyi entered Shuzhong, Juzhou was taken back by Da Liang again, so the Fusi of Nanbei Town went to Yunwu Mountain to investigate several times, and many people died, and finally got a tip.
There are no immortals in the cloudy mountains, there are people.
The accent of the speech is very unfamiliar, although it is said that the Da Liang official dialect, but the accent with it is rarely heard.
After learning of the tip, the Fusi of the north and south towns put pressure, and the local government had to cooperate, and dispatched a pitiful number of state soldiers, plus three or five hundred villagers from all over the country, under the leadership of the masters of the Fusi of the north and south towns, to go to Yunwu Mountain to arrest the "immortals".
However, the clouds and mist peaks are many and wide, and the mountains are dangerous.
A mere three to five hundred people couldn't stir up the waves at all, especially after most of the masters of the North and South Zhenfu Divisions disappeared for no reason, the government had to withdraw its troops and play in the court.
The empress stayed in the middle and did not send it.
In addition, the "immortals" of Yunwu Mountain did not plunder the nearby villagers except for the occasional forced stay of some people who broke into the mountain, so it was difficult for the Juzhou government to manage it, and it was impossible to manage it.
After all, the army is encircling and suppressing Shu.
As for the pigs, sheep, cattle and horses and even grain and grass that the villagers near Yunwu Mountain "occasionally" lost, the governor of Juzhou only reported to the imperial court and killed no soldiers - the predecessor was cut because of this matter.
However, the court had no time to take care of Yunwu Mountain, which became an itch in Juzhou.
Fortunately, there was little reaction from the people.
I really thought that there were gods in Yunwu Mountain.
The cloak mountain, the highest peak of Yunwu Mountain, the origin of the Yuanjiang River, the Qingshui River is the source of the cloak mountain, the scenery of this mountain is beautiful, the primeval forest is towering, you can see the strange landscape of trees bouldering, stone hugging trees, tree bridges, and more streams murmuring.
Above the mountainside, it is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round.
The morning breeze is bleak, the clouds and mist are like a sea of clouds, and the waves are rolling spectacularly.
At the top of the peak, someone sits alone on the sea of clouds.
Wait for the sunrise.
The person who sits alone is not confused, the sideburns have been cool, and he is dressed as a cool scholar, wearing a blue and white Confucian shirt, wearing a Confucian scarf, and a sword around his waist.
It's just that there is a camellia rusted on the cuffs of his shirt, which is quite rare.
Da Liang scholars, even if they are coquettish people, will not embroider camellia on the cuffs, probably embroider bamboo orchid plum chrysanthemum four gentlemen, plum chrysanthemum are rare, because of the mother.
Most of them are embroidered with bamboo orchids.
In fact, it is more that it is not embroidered, and the blue and white Confucian shirt is already gorgeous enough.
The eastern sky was red.
In early summer, the sun was already very early, and it was a little hot, but the top of the cloak was very cool.
The saber reader looked serene, watching the morning sun jump out of the sea of clouds.
He sighed and said, "Come out." ”
It's not a cool official dialect!
Then out of the dense fog came a handsome boy, although it was a cold cloak mountaintop, still took a folding fan, wearing a sky blue robe, with sharp and angular facial features, revealing a pleasing and neat feeling.
When he came to the person sitting alone, he snapped and closed the folding fan, "The dust has settled in Shuzhong, no matter what, our Dali, we can't get any benefits this time, do you want to stay in this Yunwu Mountain?" ”
The person sitting alone looked at the rising sun, his eyes were full of hope, when will the sun of Dali shine on the world?
After a long silence, "What can you do if you don't stay, go back to Dali?" ”
The young man smiled bitterly: "I don't understand, you are the eldest son, but the Emperor Taishang gave the throne to the current lord Duan Daolong, and now you have been invited to the territory of Daliang, with the help of the masters of Tianlong Temple and Chongsheng Temple, you have collected some remnants of the Qinglong Society, and selected seedlings from some of the soldiers who killed Su Changjin to cultivate and establish the Ant Elephant Gate, what is the use?" ”
It's just rivers and lakes.
Can it affect the national power competition between Dali and Daliang?
It sounds good, in order to grab resources from Da Liangkou, and it is also secretly lurking in Yunwu Mountain to collect intelligence for Dali, the real reason...... I'm afraid it's not that simple.
It was Duan Daoxing, the prince of Dali, who was silent.
The young man continued: "Lord Wang, you really think that the lord of the country, Duan Daolong, is the tiger of Dali, although he has also created 100,000 male divisions over the years, you must know that there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers with armor in Daliang. ”
From beginning to end, the young man called the name of the lord of Dali.
Duan Daoxing didn't scold, and muttered softly when he heard the words, "That's why there is hope for an ant elephant." ”
Ant Elephant Man.
Ants swallow elephants too.
Da Liang is an elephant, and Dali is an ant.
The third brother Duan Daolong ascended the throne, and the unconvinced among the brothers have died violently for various reasons, and he has always supported his father's third brother Duan Daolong.
The reason is simple.
One is that he has no intention of the country, and the other is that he thinks he is a talent for governing the country, between himself and his third brother Duan Daolong, there is about a distance between his father and the emperor, it is not difficult to build 100,000 male divisions, the difficulty is how to raise these 100,000 male divisions, and the difficult thing is how to use these 100,000 male divisions to complete the act of ant elephants.
You can't do it yourself.
There is not even a glimmer of hope in sight.
Can the third brother Duan Daolong do it?
Duan Daoxing didn't know either.
But at least, Dali, under the governance of the third brother Duan Daoxing, can see a glimmer of the dawn of ants swallowing elephants - even a trace of it is enough for Dali Duan to take this risk.
After living in the south of Caiyun for more than 300 years, Dali has long had enough of it.
Even if it fails, it is just like the Great Yan Dynasty, and Dali has become a vassal state of Daliang.
Dali is still the Dali of the Duan family.
The young man was silent for a while, "However, Zhao Changyi in Shuzhong is finished, followed by Zhao Zhen and Wang Kun in Kaifeng, and finally the Great War between Daliang and Beiban, our only chance in Dali is only once." ”
It was not the time for Da Liang to quell the rebellion of Kaifeng Zhao Zhen and Wang Kun.
It was the time of the Great Civil War.
Duan Daoxing got up, looked at the rising sun hanging above the sea of clouds, and smiled, "Therefore, we are in Yunwu Mountain, we must collect more intelligence information, buy more Daliang officials, and create a good situation for the victory in the first battle for the time of the Northern War, my Dali 100,000 heroes entered Guangnan West Road and Lizhou Road to create a good situation of victory in the first battle." ”
The young man smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid it's difficult." ”
Duan Daoxing bowed his head, "It's man-made, this time, we must hold on to Yunwu Mountain and not let the Empress's Sword succeed." ”
The young man still smiled bitterly, "That's Li Ruyu." ”
Duan Daoxing laughed, and with a wave of his hand, a sword intent broke through the air, dividing the sea of clouds into two, like a sword intent running through the sea of clouds, intending to break through the rising sun hanging above the sea of clouds, "Bai Choufei, you have been practicing in Tianlong Temple since you were a child, and your heart is like the bright moon, so you are afraid of the sword of the Empress Daliang?" ”
The young boy Bai Choufei smiled bitterly, "The six veins are not fully connected, so I don't dare to fight the saint." ”
Duan Daoxing sighed, "Li Ruyu is already a saint?" ”
Bai Choufei thought about it and said slowly: "The vision in Shuzhong a few days ago, although it can be seen from a distance that Li Ruyu is not a saint, but that Tsing Yi Tang poem has really stepped into the realm of a saint, and he still died at the hands of Li Ruyu. ”
Duan Daoxing understands these truths.
Bai Choufei's fingering, which has Dali Duan's family heirloom skills, and the fingering of the town temple of Datianlong Temple, and this young man born to the daughter of Dali Duan's partial branch is amazingly talented, and he actually integrates Dali Duan's mastery and Tianlong Temple's mastery, and creates a set of fingering.
As for Bai Choufei's non-Dali Duan family, why he was able to practice Duan's mastery, the reason is more far-reaching, and he has to trace back to the arrangement of his father's Zen throne - after all, he can't let the tiger of Dali kill all the Duan bloodlines that disobey him.
said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, Li Ruyu is just alone, even if he leads the Iron Cavalry of the Cloud Army to Yunwu Mountain, in the final analysis, it is still a battle of the sword of the rivers and lakes after all." ”
No matter how many iron horses there are, can they crisscross the Cloud Mountain?
No!
So in the final analysis, it is still a battle between masters, once he and Bai Choufei kill Li Ruyu, then Da Liang Unless he invites a saint, his ant elephant gate will be nailed to death in Yunwu Mountain.
The personable son Bai Chou opened the folding fan with a snap, looked at the rising sun, and looked lonely, "It has passed the mango seed, and the summer solstice is about to be." ”
Duan Daoxing was surprised, not knowing what he meant.
Bai Choufei sighed, "The summer solstice has not yet arrived, and Jian Feng is cold." ”
After being silent for a long time, he said softly: "Lord Wang, haven't you thought about it, the national strength of Dali, how difficult it is for ants to swallow elephants, and if one is not good, it is the disaster of destroying the country. ”
Duan Daoxing vaguely understood, and his expression was vague.
Bai Choufei pointed like a flower, flicked it towards the sea of clouds, and saw that in the sea of clouds in the distance, like a big wave and a giant kun turned over, he said with a smile: "Lord Wang, it is a blessing to be safe." ”
The luck of Dali is not that the tiger of Dali is the lord of the country.
It's you!
Dali should not be enterprising and seek its own destruction.
Rather, it should be kept.
Of course, this also has Bai Choufei's selfishness, if he is enterprising, if he is defeated, he is afraid that he and Duan Daoxing will be decisively abandoned by Duan Daolong, and now his only future is to look at Duan Daoxing to become the lord of a country.
In this way, he will be under one man and above ten thousand.
Even......
Why can Dali always have the surname Duan.
Can't you have a white surname?
Duan Daoxing didn't know how difficult it was for ants to swallow elephants, but the current situation in the world was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Dali, so could he be willing to give up like this?
Ants swallow elephants, the hope of Dali Duan's for hundreds of years!
Give it a try.
If not, then the lord of Dali should not be the third brother, but me!
I was the eldest son.
Enterprising the world, I am not as good as him.
Guarding the south of the clouds, he is not as good as me.
That guy is not ambitious?
Why not bring a Wu hook!
