Chapter 130: Ascending to the Duke of the Kingdom
The wolf smoke swarmed, the sound of horses' hooves, and the Sui State's attack on the Zhou State was launched one after another on the north and south lines, and the boundary of the Youzhou Governor's Mansion was smoked, and the boundary of Jingzhou in Shannan was also unfurled. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The Sui army attacked Jingzhou in Shannan with all its might, and a large number of Sui troops previously assembled in the area of Yuzhou advanced westward, while the Sui army in the direction of Wuguandao and the upper reaches of the Han River acted as a countermeasure to contain the forces of the Zhou army in Jingzhou and Xiangzhou.
Before the military situation in Shannan was sent to Yecheng, the Bozhou Governor's Office of the Zhou State had already noticed the movement of the Sui army in Yuzhou on the west side.
Prime Minister Chi Hui ordered the Bozhou Governor's Mansion and the Hezhou Governor's Mansion to send troops to the west to attack the Yuzhou Governor's Mansion of the Sui State.
The military situation was urgent, and a new round of orders was issued: the Hezhou Army stood still, defended the north bank of the Yangtze River with the Wuzhou Army, and the Xuzhou Army marched westward, and jointly attacked the Sui Army in Yuzhou with the Bozhou Army, so as to encircle Wei and save Zhao, and relieve the siege for the Shannan Zhou Army.
He also mobilized troops from all over the country to gather on the front line of the Yellow River to prevent the Sui State from going out of the Tiger Pass in the east and attacking east along the Yellow River.
The war between Zhou and Sui was rekindled, the Sui army raided the east of Taihang Mountain, and Yang Su, the head of the march, almost succeeded in attacking the honor guard of the Son of Heaven of Zhou.
There is also news that the reason why this battle was successful was because of Yu Wenwen of the Zhou State Sect, who was in the honor guard of the Son of Heaven of Zhou at that time, and killed hundreds of officials and soldiers alone, which led to the reversal of the situation.
One person killed hundreds of people, this sounds quite terrifying, I think it is a rumor, but this person is very fierce must be true, the name of Yuwen Wen spread through the street chatter in Chang'an, and many people sighed that Yuwen had such a fierce person.
Sure enough, it's the one-legged bronze man Yuwen Wen!
Chang'an, in the palace, Emperor Yang Jian of Sui looked at the urgent report in front of him that traveled three hundred miles a day, and sighed, his army almost captured the little emperor of Zhou, this is a great opportunity, but ...
Yang Su, the commander of the marching army, took the lead in the battle, and shot the left eye for a stray arrow, although he still took the lead in the bloodshed, although he fell short in the end, Yang Jian felt that he had to be greatly rewarded to boost the morale of the whole army.
Yang Su is now leading his troops to defend Zhending City as planned, and the city is surrounded by the Zhou army, Yang resolutely decided to transfer troops east out of Jingcheng, and no matter what, he must ensure that Yang Su can be taken out in the end.
Seeing the back, Yang Jian's mood immediately became extremely bad, because he saw a name in the urgent report, and that name made him feel dazzling.
It is reported that when the official army attacked the honor guard of Emperor Zhou, Yu Wenwen of the Zhou State Sect organized everyone to resist, that is, because of this person's trouble, he entangled a group of rabble, and insisted on besieging the official army, resulting in Yang Su's surprise attack falling short.
According to the soldiers at the scene, this person's martial arts skills were very good, and he rushed into the officers and soldiers and slashed indiscriminately, but no one could stop him.
"No one can stop you... It's me who has lost my eyes! Yang Jian only felt anger surging, Yu Wenwen, this little bastard, had harmed his daughter Yang Lihua, and now it had become an even greater scourge.
According to the anxious report, Yuwen Wen's white-bladed battle is unstoppable, he thinks it is an exaggeration, but it is likely that the other party can fight, Yang Jian did not expect Yuwen Wen to be such a fierce man.
"It's okay, you won't be able to jump for long!"
。。。。。。
Yecheng, within a few days of frequent movement of troops and horses around the city, rumors in the city, some say that Youzhou has been captured by the Sui army, some say that Shannan Jingzhou has fallen, and some say that the official army has broken through the Sui State Yuzhou.
What's more, it is said that Jiangnan Chen is in civil turmoil, and the official army has invaded Jiankang, and the knife will not be sealed for three days.
For a while, rumors were everywhere, and they were disturbed, and they didn't know which one was true and which one was false, but a new news was unanimously determined by everyone.
At the beginning of this month, the Son of Heaven went out on patrol, on the way back to Yecheng, he was attacked in the north of Yiyang, and fortunately the loyal ministers and good generals fought bloodily to keep the Son of Heaven safe and sound, so the imperial court issued an edict to reward the meritorious people.
The war dead have pensions, and there are many rewards among the survivors, and those who have made meritorious contributions in the bloody war are even more rewarded, and one of them is in the spotlight, that is Yuwen Wen of the Great Zhou Sect.
It is said that the corpses were all over the field, and Yuwenwen gathered the crowd to defend it, and he took the lead in a bloody battle, and more than ten arrows were wounded in dozens of places, and the morale was boosted before repelling the siege of the Sui army.
If it weren't for Yuwen Wen raising his arms and shouting, the entire team would have been scattered by the Sui army, and those who stayed behind would have no chance of survival, and the Sui army would continue to move south to pursue the Son of Heaven.
Another well-informed source said that when the Sui army attacked, it was Yuwenwen who took the lead in reacting, and carried the Son of Heaven off the imperial chariot and was escorted by Zuo Gongbo and Lu Guogong Chi Jing to evacuate, and it was also a loss to deal with it in time, so that the Son of Heaven was not trapped in a heavy siege.
The merit is higher than the Savior, and Yuwen Wen is the Great Zhou clan, so the edict of the imperial court to reward was soon issued:
Xiyang County Gongyu Wenwen, the position of the Duke of Yiguo, 10,000 households, his wife Wei Chi, named the Duchess of the State of Yi, his sister-in-law Yuwen Weicheng, the son of the Duke of Xiyang, his eldest son Yuwen Weihan attacked the Duke of Xiyang County.
Yuwen Wen is worthy of his name because of his meritorious advancement, and there is no objection to the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and the reward of the imperial court is very fast, after all, his wife Wei Chi is the granddaughter of the prime minister, so everyone understands it very well.
Not only that, but there are also many people who say that Yuwen Wen is unstoppable in this battle, and he slashes and kills hundreds of Sui soldiers alone, which can be described as brave and good at fighting.
As soon as I said this, many people couldn't help but sigh: The one-legged bronze man Yuwen Wen really deserves his name!!
In the embassy, Yu Wenwen, the newly promoted duke, is complaining, and the one who is complaining is his knighthood: Duke Yiguo.
According to the abbreviated official style of this era, the names of "Wang" and "Gong" are all "Wang Mou" or "Mou Gong", for example, Zhao Wang Yu Wenzhao is "Zhao Wang Zhao".
Shu State Lieutenant Chi Yuan, is "Shu Gong Hui", and then such as Qi State Gong Yu Wenliang, is "Qi Gong Liang", so the question is, according to the convention, what is the name of Yu Wenwen?
'Gong Wen... Swine Plague... Pig Gong...' Yu Wenwen used his poisonous tongue and began to complain about his new name in his heart, the lethality of this name is much stronger than that of the "one-legged bronze man Yu Wenwen" for himself.
"Why is the king unhappy? Could it be that he is worried about the war in Shannan? Zheng Tong asked, as soon as the messenger of the decree left, a group of people entered to congratulate Yuwen Wen on his accession to the throne, and after everyone dispersed, he stayed to discuss matters, but at the moment this one seemed to be a little pale.
"The war in Shannan is tight, but Yecheng and Shannan are thousands of miles apart, what's the use of this official being in a hurry." Yuwen Wen sighed, Shannan's urgent report had already arrived in the capital, and he was restless when he thought that the Sui army was storming Jingzhou in Shannan.
"Envoy, Daxingtai is fully armed for war, not afraid of the Sui army, please rest assured to recuperate."
Yu Wenwen smiled bitterly and shook his head, he can only recuperate in Yecheng at present, the wound has just healed not long ago, although it is not a broken muscle, but no one dares to let him go, so as not to burst the wound halfway out of the accident.
"It's good that the Son of Heaven didn't want to be crowned king, or else this official would really become the target of public criticism."
"If you are too worried, Your Majesty must be impulsive, and when you calm down, you will naturally know that this move is inappropriate." Zheng Tong knew that the Son of Heaven was 'impulsive' that day, and he also admired Yuwenwen's quick wit.
"By the way, what is the origin of this country?" Yu Wenwen asked, he really didn't know much about the issue of banning, it was said that there was a lot of water in the doorway, and he was afraid of being blocked.
The dukedom of the Zhou State is divided into the duke of the country, the duke of the county, and the duke of the county is a fief in the name of the county and the county, and the duke of the country is naturally a fief in the name of the country.
"In ancient times, there was indeed a kingdom of Yi, and it was established in the first Zhou period..."
Zheng Tong began to drop the bookbag and talk about allusions, the State of Yi is also known as the State of Zou, which was established in the Zhou Dynasty but has not been canonized by Zhou Tianzi, and it was only in the Spring and Autumn Period that Zhou Tianzi was canonized as a viscount, ranking among the princes.
The state of Yi is located in the southwest of Mount Tai for the vassal of the state of Lu, the state of Chu destroyed the state of Lu during the Warring States period, and the state of Yi was destroyed by the way, and the monarchs and ministers of the state of Yi were moved to the Chu land on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and the city was built and settled in the boundary of today's Bazhou.
The city where the monarchs and ministers of this country settled is the city of Yi, and the ruins are in the northwest of Xiyang City, the north foot of Longtou Mountain.
"I see, it seems that the title given by the imperial court is exquisite..."Yu Wenwen was a little relieved, it seems that this country can be linked to his previous nominal fief "Xiyang County".
"Not only that, but the country of Qi and the country of Yi also have a relationship." Zheng Tong pointed out another reason, "Yuwen Xingtai, knighted as the Duke of Qiguo." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"On the occasion of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the Qi State was originally established in Henan, besieged by the surrounding princes, and had no choice but to move eastward.
Speaking of which, Yu Wenwen, who "doesn't learn and has no skills", suddenly realized that the court named him the Duke of Yiguo, which is really "reasonable, powerful and responsible", and it should not be that someone deliberately disgusted him as a "pig duke".
Think about it, if he is a "pig father", then Wei Chi Chifan is a "pig mother", so blatantly slapping Yu Chi Prime Minister in the face, who dares to be so presumptuous.
This kind of far-fetchedness, about the fact that someone with a dark psychology thinks too much.
Since the last time the Son of Heaven came to visit, the matter of the reward has been brewing for a while, and Yuwenwen knew that he would be knighted for his duke, and he was a little happy and looked forward to what the title was.
Yuwen Wen belongs to Yuwen Tai's eldest brother Yu Wen Hao's line, and the bloodline of this line is now only Yu Wenliang, Yu Wenming, and Yu Wen Wen, of course, the other branches that are even worse have been killed by Yang Jian, and the title passed down by Yu Wen Hao's line is also empty and no one inherits.
Not to mention the titles of the county duke and below, there are two empty at the national duke: Shao Guogong and Feng Guogong.
And Yuwen Liang is the grandson of Yuwen Hao, but he inherited the title of Duke of Qiguo in the line of his second brother Yuwen Lian, that is to say, no one inherited the Duke of Yuwen Hao's side, Yuwen Wen originally thought that his title would be one of them, but later Zheng Tong analyzed it and learned that it was impossible.
Inherit the title, you have to inherit the incense, according to the patriarchal law, that is, to become the heir, Yuwenwen himself has been succeeded once, and there is no reason for the second succession, so the title of the Duke of Guo has to be newly established.
Leaving aside the name of 'Gong Di', Yu Wenwen is now thinking about another question.
To fill the vacancies for the clansmen to continue the incense, the existing clan will have more sons, if the Yuwen clan is still there, then 'pass' out to inherit the incense, title, so Yuwenwen is a little entangled: the son is over, the patriarchal is not his own son, and it is someone else's tablet that is worshiped during the New Year's Festival!
This feeling made him feel weird, but the patriarchal law was so exquisite, just as the wife was a human being and the side room, concubines and the like were regarded as things, which was a matter of course in ancient times.
His title is only qualified to be inherited by his son-in-law, unless his son-in-law dies, it is the turn of the concubine, so Yuwenwen has to work hard to make meritorious contributions even for the future of his sons.
Yuwenwen felt that he must have more than two sons, so the future of San Lang, Shiro and several Lang depended on him as Aya.
'I don't have to inherit the titles of other branches, I try to earn new titles for my sons, so that I don't have to succeed!' ’
Thinking of this, Yu Wenwen only felt full of fighting spirit, Zheng Tong laughed inexplicably when he saw him, a little speechless, the two talked for a while, and Zhang Dingfa asked to see him outside.
"Lang Jun, someone brought it." (To be continued.) )
