Chapter 167 I hate it when someone points a finger at me
Chapter 167 I hate it when someone points a finger at me
"That's the foundation!" Du Ruhui said with a pale face.
His face was pale, not because he was frightened by the terrible situation at the moment, but because he was originally dragging his sick body and gritting his teeth to support him.
After a long time, Li Shimin finally figured it out. He lamented: "They didn't send a single soldier, they didn't add a single armor or a blade, they just changed a general, and the situation was completely reversed!" That's the charm of a commander...... The most terrifying thing about a good commander is not how brave he is, but that he has the ability to control everything even on a bloody battlefield, so that cowardly soldiers will not retreat, brave soldiers will not dare to compete for the first, and a group of herbivores will become bloodthirsty beasts. ”
Du Ruhan's emaciated face showed that his eyes were even deeper.
Li Shimin patted Du Ruhui on the shoulder and said naturally: "Although he is very powerful, he can't win this battle!" ”
Li Shimin quickly gave an order, and a reserve force quickly entered the battlefield.
Li Shimin's confidence is that there are many people. There are actually a lot of people in the Fuso Continent.
However, there is a limit to the number of people that can be carried by the land anywhere. China's successive dynasties have gone through about three generations from the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and their national strength has reached its peak.
This is the case with the Ming Dynasty, the same is true with the Song Dynasty, and the largest time of the Tang Dynasty was not in the Taizong period in history, but in the Gaozong Li Zhi and Wu Zhou periods, which happened to be three generations.
One of the disadvantages of the prosperous era is that the products are abundant, the country is safe, and the people can reproduce with confidence, so the population is growing rapidly. But the population needs land to support it, and a country has limited land, and the limited population supports the infinitely growing population, and everyone knows what will happen.
Therefore, when the number of people exceeds the limit of what the land can hold, the prosperous era will become a thing of the past, and the chaotic times will follow. More and more people are fighting openly and secretly for less and less land, and it is impossible to think about it, and if there are a few large-scale natural disasters or wars at this time, it can be said that the country is dead.
The Fuso continent is a city-state country, the country is very small, and it does not have a large-scale war like the Central Plains, but how do they reduce the population?
They took sacrifices, very bloody human sacrifices. Sacrifice the surplus population to the vain gods. The sacrifice is precisely for the purpose of regulating the population, they need to thank the gods for a good harvest, kill some people, and sacrifice to the gods. In short, they relied on this mode of sacrifice in the relative circle, and had a very good time until the advent of the Age of Discovery, when they faced the catastrophe.
When Li Shimin arrived on the Fusang Continent, he was immediately terminated. Even if Li Shimin is an ancient person, he is also a very civilized person, in Li Shimin's view, people can be killed, can be starved to death, can also be burned to death, the only thing that cannot be endured is to be used as a sacrifice, kill and sacrifice to the gods.
Under a very skillful management, the spiritual baptism of a certain island country began to appear in the Fusang Continent, and all the city-states in the Fusang Continent received news that Li Shimin was the incarnation of the Quetzalcoatl God in the world, and fighting for Li Shimin was loyal to the gods.
In this context, Li Shimin never needs to consume.
The army he can arm is far more than Li Jiancheng imagined.
His strategy is very simple, that is, there are many ants to gnaw dead elephants, no matter how well equipped you are, how well-trained you are, and there are not many others in Datang, that is, there are many people.
If 500 people can't fight, then 1,000 people, and if 1,000 people can't fight, then 5,000 people.
Since I can't kill you, I'm tired of you.
The person in charge of commanding the war in the southeast was replaced by a jaguar. Although the jaguar is not his real name, but he really has a species, knowing that the Tang army has bad intentions, he does not frown, leading more than 30 thousand people, and he crashes into it without even reconnoitring. 、
Although the Tang army was very brave enough to destroy seven of them, the Jaguar relied on the attack of the sea of people, exhausted the Tang army's arrows, and was forced to retreat.
After the capture of Ningdu, the jaguar was still as its name, like a sharp sword, straight into Xingguo, breaking through Le'an County, which had no time to organize a retreat, and their target was Ganzhou.
Ganzhou is the upper reaches of the Gan River and the southern gate of Jiangxi.
As early as the period of Qin Shi Huang, Qin Shi Huang sent five armies to garrison five mountains, one of which guarded the boundary of Yuling, and here was Ganzhou City.
With the loss of Ganzhou, the entire Datang Jiangnan Province began to panic.
Due to the previous misjudgment of Li Shimin's offensive direction, the Shandong Provincial Economic Expedition was slightly pacified and Su Dingfang concentrated the main forces of Jiangnan Province in the direction of Suzhou.
Yan Liben, the deposed envoy of Jiangnan Province, is not a military director himself, he is just a civil servant, and more importantly, he is obsessed with calligraphy and painting.
It's good now, he can't take Su Dingfang's order, Yan Liben saw the enemy army rushing towards Suzhou, he couldn't help but be a little panicked, he didn't care about any strategy, and commanded more than 40 Zhichong Mansion under his command, surrounded from all sides, and pinched off this hard stubble first!
In this way, it is in the hands of Li Shimin.
In mid-May, the Battle of Jiangzhou (now Jiujiang) between Fusang and Tang broke out. The Tang Dynasty invested 43 Zhichong Mansions, totaling more than 70,000 people, while Li Shimin led Fusang and Lingnan barbarian troops with 210,000 horses, and the two sides launched fierce battles within a radius of less than 1,000 miles.
After half a month of fierce fighting, the Tang army was defeated, and Suzhou was taken by Li Shimin.
In the direction of Lingnan, Li Shimin sent Hou Mo Chen Xu, who was also Chen Ying's brother.
Hou Mo Chen Xu is the real head of the Lingnan Hou Mo Chen clan.
Lingnan is not the same as the Central Plains, although it nominally belongs to the imperial court of the Central Plains, but this is only nominal, and the real rulers here are the leaders of the tribes, such as the Xiyuan Man, Huang Dongman, Guizhou's Ge Bureaucracy, the Gui Bureaucracy, the Nanping Bureaucracy in eastern Sichuan, the Feitou Bureaucracy, the Wuwu Bureaucracy, the Yao Bureaucracy, the Barbarian Bureaucracy, the Yao Servant and other tribes.
Due to the relative backwardness of these tribes, they are not good at farming, and although they are diligent, they do not have much wealth, while the Han people have abundant wealth in the cities outside the gathering places. This is the root of sin.
It is definitely not an exaggeration that the eyes of the poor are green when they face the rich, so there have been fierce conflicts and bloodshed here for a long time. In the eyes of these bureaucratic tribes, there is no imperial court at all, and they only have the Feng family or the Hou Mo Chen family in their hearts.
With the official return of Hou Mo Chen Xu, the bureaucratic tribes who had originally sworn allegiance to the imperial court immediately rebelled and re-supported Hou Mo Chen Xu as the master. In Hou Mo Chen Xu led the frontal assault on the Tang Dynasty court army, and the generals took advantage of their familiarity with the terrain and their ability to trek through mountains and rivers to divide and surround the court army.
In the battle of Lingnan, Hou Mo Chen Xu's entire command was extremely smooth and targeted, and he obviously completely mastered the rhythm of the battlefield. In just three months, the troops were advanced to the city of Chengdu in Jiannan Road, and the area south of Chengdu was no longer owned by the Tang Dynasty.
After Hou Mo Chen Xu controlled the south, he pressed further to the north.
Under the attack of the absolute superiority of forces, Pang Yu, the general of Zuo Wuwei, could only retreat at Jianmen Pass.
It is the so-called game of chess in the world.
With Hou Mo Chen Xu taking the lead in breaking the game, the soldiers forced the Sword Pavilion.
Li Shimin also took the opportunity to advance lightly and arrived at Jingkou and other places, while the Feng clan soldiers and the Baiyue tribes allied forces repeatedly swept Jiangnan.
……
The situation has become too bad to be worse, and the reaction of Li Jiancheng of Chang'an City and the Tang Dynasty seems to be too slow. Or rather, there is simply no measure to fight back.
Although in the direction of the overpass, the Fusang Tang army was like locusts along the overpass to kill the Tang Dynasty, but in the eyes of Anton's general Li Shiji, this level of attack can be said to be as vulnerable as an ordinary peasant army in chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty.
However, it was precisely because of the attack in the direction of the flyover that Li Shiji's great energy was involved, and he did not dare to guarantee that the million-strong army would not have a fish to slip through the net.
On the stargazing platform of the Linhu Hall of the Taiji Palace in Chang'an City, Li Jiancheng looked depressed.
Chen Ying smiled and said, "Your Majesty, are you still struggling?" ”
Li Jiancheng said frankly: "I can't help but be entangled, after all, what I am going to do next will lead to extremely serious consequences, whether it is right or wrong, I don't know, I can only leave it to time to prove...... So, there's no way not to get tangled. ”
"Yes, it's always difficult to make a big choice, and we only have one chance, and if we make a mistake, we never have a chance to do it again!" Chen Ying sighed: "It's really difficult to stick to your choice, and it's even more difficult to not let yourself regret it after sticking to your choice." ”
Li Jiancheng's much-thinner body spewed out a murderous aura that was so thick that it couldn't be dissolved, and even Chen Ying's hair stood on end.
If Li Jiancheng was standing in the Taiji Hall of Taiji Palace at this time, he was afraid that if he didn't breathe, the civil and military officials in the hall would have already fallen half of them with the murderous aura on his body.
At this moment, Li Anyan bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the hundred officials are waiting!" ”
Li Jiancheng took a deep breath and said, "Let's go, I've had enough!" ”
Chen Ying followed Li Jiancheng.
Li Jiancheng asked, "What's going on with Su Dingfang?" ”
Li Anyan smiled bitterly and said: "The guards of the left prison have just found out the situation, and it is the general of the auxiliary country who went to Licheng!" ”
Chen Ying smiled and said, "What did Liu Hongji do in Licheng?" ”
Since the Xuanwumen Incident, Li Jiancheng did not treat Liu Hongji, an old minister, badly, and gave him the post of Wei Weiqing, relieved him of his military position, and took back the power of the general of the Left Guard. Of course, Li Jiancheng was too kind, and gave Liu Hong the title of General of the Kiev National Congress, which is the second rank of the lord, second only to Chen Ying's hussar general, equal to Li Jing, and one level higher than Li Shiji.
Li Anyan smiled bitterly and said: "The general of the auxiliary country led the attendants of the Weiwei Temple, including the Licheng Shandong Daojing and the Fu Envoy Division, claiming to have the evidence of General Su Dingfang's treason with the enemy, and let General Su Dingfang Su hand over the military power and return to Chang'an to defend himself!" ”
Chen Yingdu couldn't help but roll his eyes, this old immortal really has no lower limit for death!
In parallel history, he betrayed Li Yuan's trust in him and completely handed over the entire Taiji Palace to Li Shimin, if there was no Liu Hongji, an old immortal, Li Shimin's soldiers and horses would not have been able to enter the Taiji Palace at all. Do you really think that a constant can pass unimpeded? This is pure. Chang He's official position is only the fourth grade, and he is not a high-level general at the level of Datang.
Without the nod of Liu Hongji, the boss of the Taiji Palace Praetorian Guard, Li Shimin might not even be able to bring ten people into the palace, do you really think that the palace can enter and exit at will? In that case, the emperor who was assassinated in history went to the sea.
Now he actually uses it to help Li Shimin, he doesn't even want to lose face, and he has to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and kill the supreme commander of the Tang Dynasty who resisted Li Shimin.
This level of death, even the Northern Song Dynasty court, which had won the championship of the Trick Death Competition, was dumbfounded and sighed to himself! The Northern Song Dynasty is a death, but it still knows that tens of millions of military funds are spent every year to maintain the Western Army, the most fierce and warlike field army in the Great Song Dynasty, just in case.
These guys are good, they don't count the loss of so many excellent soldiers, more than 70,000 troops in Jiangnan Province, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Longyou Province, and the last field army group in the east, the largest in the Tang Dynasty, will be killed! It's really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, a generation of new people replacing the old people, it's really terrifying, I believe that even if the scholars who buried the Northern Song Dynasty were invited, in the face of these younger generations, they can only write a suit. Even the gang that sold the Ming Dynasty was smashed, and they were willing to bow down.
In fact, these miscellaneous pieces are Li Shimin's real confidence, they have long been accustomed to being high, they are used to being above the imperial power and the court. Dissatisfied with Li Yuan, he immediately launched Liu Wuzhou's chess piece, and within three months, Liu Wuzhou swept Hedong and had the potential to win the Central Plains.
When Li Yuan negotiated terms with them, they immediately sold Liu Wuzhou and returned Hedong to Li Yuan. Of course, the most pitiful thing is Dou Jiande, the so-called dispute between the Tang Xia and Zheng Kingdoms, which is actually a process of bargaining between the Hedong, Hedong, and Henan clans and the Li and Tang courts.
When the two parties negotiated the price, Dou Jiande became a victim. Of course, after a word of discord, they gave Li Yuan and Li Tang the court a look, and Liu Shishan, who was not known, occupied the entire 39 states of Hebei for three months, and became the de facto king of Hebei.
In order to force Su Dingfang to comply, they also took advantage of Su Dingfang's gentleman's heart, so that they could deceive him, and they gathered representatives of the Hebei gentry, more than 300 80-year-old people, to sit quietly in front of Su Dingfang's line to discuss things.
In fact, the group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals led by Liu Hongji alone could not trap Su Dingfang at all, and if Su Dingfang was willing, his personal guard cavalry could kill a hundred of Liu Hongji's subordinates.
The key is that these more than 300 high-lived old people, let alone rushing to kill, even if one is scared to death, Su Dingfang can't tell if he jumps into the Yellow River.
It is really old and not dead as a thief, in the late Sui and Tang dynasties, such old people who have gone through the Northern Zhou, Sui, and Tang dynasties are even rarer than the national treasures of later generations, and it is not easy to find more than 300 people.
Li Jiancheng couldn't bear it anymore and said: "It's really good to die." ”
In the Taiji Palace, the ministers of civil and military affairs bowed down in an orderly manner, silent. Li Jiancheng put his hands behind his back, he was like a sculpture, with his back to the courtiers, facing Danqi, motionless.
Li Jiancheng closed his eyes and tried his best to hide the anger in his heart.
Wei Zheng's eyebrow bones jumped suddenly, and the rest of his eyes looked at the ministers around him, and all the ministers held their breath and secretly feared.
Suddenly, Li Jiancheng turned around, and his sharp and bright eyes suddenly opened, and his gaze swept over the ministers.
"Zhongshu Sheren!"
Cen Wenwen bowed down and said, "The minister is here!" ”
"Decree!"
Cen Wenwen's body trembled, and his voice trembled a little: "The general of the auxiliary state, the Kaifu Yi and the three divisions, and the Wei Weiqing and the Duke of Kuiguo, Liu Hongji, have lived up to my hopes, punished the nine clans, and fought against the evil, resisted stubbornly, and killed without forgiveness!" ”
Wei Zheng was the first to stand up and said, "Your Majesty, how can a first-class member of the imperial court be punished without guilt!" ”
Wei Zheng's opposition, Li Jiancheng also knew that it was not to protect Liu Hongji, but to maintain the official weapons of the imperial court.
Li Jiancheng did not speak.
Cen Wenwen nodded and said, "Yes!" ”
After a pause, Cen Wenwen said: "Liu Hongji has been in town for 18 years, and he has not made an inch, but he has waited and seen to raise his wife, and he will be killed. Falsely reporting the number of soldiers, embezzling military salaries, and beheading. ”
The heavy ministers had different expressions, and the Chinese military ministers of the court had different expressions, either gloating, or full of worry, or looking pleasant.
Cen Wenwen continued: "Collusion with the Turks, internal communication with foreign enemies, three should be beheaded." The party is attached to the minister, and the party is engaged in private gain, and the four should be beheaded. Accept bribes, sell official positions, and behead them. The arson is a bandit, and the lives of people are disregarded, and they should be beheaded six times. The crime of the ministers, don't bully the king, and the seven should be beheaded. Bullying the tribute domain, taking the tribute for personal use, and beheading. Stealing and selling armor weapons, aiding and abusive, and being beheaded. Kill Liang Na rebel, falsely report his war exploits, and be beheaded. Slowing down military aircraft and acting recklessly. Eleven should be beheaded. With Qin rebellion in his heart, Yin should be beheaded for the twelve! ”
Behind the curtain, Chen Ying sneered.
These charges were basically settled by Chen Yingchu, but except for a few words less, even the order is the same, these Wenchen in their Zhongshu Province are really lazy.
Of course, these ministers also know that Li Jiancheng is just angry with Liu Hongji.
However, after the eight words of Qin rebellion and Yin Wei are not subordinate are implicated in the crime, no one among the ministers is willing to exonerate Liu Hongji, because there is no excuse.
If Li Jiancheng is willing to build a prison, this crime can be netted to all the officials present, as long as Li Jiancheng is willing.
Anyway, Liu Hongji died when he died, and it is not impossible to have a heavy minister to be buried as the Son of Heaven. Liu Hongji is dead, and he still occupies one less seat.
Just as Cen Wenwen's voice fell, a scrivener Yu Shi came out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to say!" ”
The real showdown is about to begin.
As the officer who had played the front station stepped forward.
Li Jiancheng had a touch of coldness on his face.
At this moment, the curtain was lifted.
Chen Ying also walked from behind the scenes to the front desk.
Wen Chen's face changed greatly.
And the generals applauded Chen Ying.
The scholar Yushi looked angry, today was a good day for him to be famous for eternity, such a good atmosphere was stirred up by Chen Ying, how could he be happy.
Li Jiancheng looked at the angry courtiers, and suddenly remembered Chen Ying's story, the scene in that story was very imaginary today.
The servant Yu Shi stretched out his hand and pointed at Chen Ying, and shouted, "Traitor, you still dare to be here...... Yes! ”
Before he finished speaking, the scribe Yushi screamed miserably.
A severed arm fell to the ground, the cut neatly cut, and blood spurted out.
The ministers felt bad for a while, this is different from the script!
Chen Ying didn't seem to see the miserable appearance of this scholar, and looked at the ministers lightly and said: "I'm sorry, let everyone laugh, I hate it very much when someone points at me!" ”
PS: It is not allowed to smear historical figures, so the name will not be written. The traitor erected a monument, Yue Fei was hacked, what happened to this world
