Text Chapter 397 Several Generals

Through his own observation and thinking, Zhu Pingjin grasped Liao Daheng's weaknesses in detail through the two traitors of Master Qian and Master Li. At the critical moment when Liao Daheng hesitated and swayed, Zhu Pingjin finally made Liao Daheng choose to surrender with a sharp attack and a promise full of temptation.

Zhu Pingjin and Liao Daheng, a vassal king of Shu and a governor of Sichuan appointed by the imperial court, re-formed an alliance under a new political pattern after more than half a year.

Such a political alliance is a win-win for both parties. Of course, Zhu Pingjin has gained a lot, but the biggest beneficiary is Liao Daheng. He not only exempted himself from the hidden worries of settling accounts after the autumn, and got the opportunity to "rule the world together" in the future, but also tried out the bottom line of the young man in front of him: the barrel of a gun.

Whether it is now or in the future, the barrel of a gun is Zhu Pingjin's life. Whoever dares to touch Zhu Pingjin's gun will be Zhu Pingjin's enemy!

Now that all-round strategic cooperation has been reached, according to the tradition of the Chinese, of course, it is necessary to eat and drink at noon to celebrate. Zhu Pingjin followed the doctor's instructions to recuperate for at least three days. It is best not to go out for these three days, and you can only choose to take a car or a sedan car when you go out. Necessary activities such as eating and pooping are fine, but they must not be too big, and they must not pull the eggs.

Zhu Pingjin had such and such taboos, so the little eunuch Zhang Wei thoughtfully set up a round table in the main room of the second hall, just for five or six people to eat.

Zhu Pingjin sat on the top, and Liao Daheng sat on the bottom left. Cheng Xiangfeng followed Dong Bu's cavalry battalion to the front, called watching the battle, but was actually Zhu Pingjin's personal representative, so Qian Weihan, a political broker and dog-headed military advisor, happily sat down on the right side.

The three of them lacked an atmosphere for dinner, and Zhu Pingjin groaned slightly, and then ordered the two staff officers of the General Staff Department, the old and the new, to be called. Of these two staff officers, one is Hong Qixin, acting director of the Operations Division, and the other is Liu Wenyu, the new combat staff officer. Without waiting for the two staff officers to arrive, another uninvited guest stepped into the threshold along the meal first. This uninvited person is none other than Luo Guang, the Fusi Baihu of Weibei Town, who is excited.

……

I have to admit that Zhang Jimeng's plan to force Wang Chaoyang to oppose Wang Chaoyang by cutting off food and salary, and to blame Zhu Pingjin and Liao Daheng, is very ruthless.

Zhang Jimeng inquired clearly early that Wang Chaoyang was originally a close confidant of Hou Liangzhu, and he was extremely resentful of Hou Liangzhu's defeat and death and being chased by the imperial court. In addition, Wang Chaoyang's troops were not treated well by Gan Liangchen, the new general soldier, and the arrears of wages for many years could not be repaid, and the anger of the soldiers of the first battalion had long been dry firewood and withered grass, and it burned at one point. forced Wang Chaoyang to rebel, the military erosion in northern Sichuan, and Liao Daheng, the governor of Sichuan, could not escape the sanctions of the imperial court. At that time, as soon as his testament is on the table, coupled with Zhou Yanru's efforts in the court, Zhu Pingjian, the son of the Shu Domain, will also be exposed to the world.

"I never imagined that Zhang Jimeng would live up to the grace of the saint and instruct his family to collude with the local tyrants!"

Luo Guang reported the results of the interrogation in a muffled voice while his chopsticks flew over. Zhu Pingjin noticed that one of Luo Guang's favorite dishes was the five-spice silkworm pupae stewed with anise (star anise) and green onions, ginger and garlic.

Zhu Pingjin diligently used a big spoon to spread vegetables for Luo Guang: "Luo Baihu has come to Sichuan to endure hardship!" Shu is far from bitter and wet, and it is not as prosperous as Beijing. You see, when you march and fight, you can eat some ordinary food! ”

Is this all ordinary food?

White mushrooms, black fungus, yellow yellow flowers, red peppers, and the good things that can't be named on these chopsticks. Luo Guang was dumbfounded for a moment, and a silkworm chrysalis fell into the wine glass. He was reluctant to give up the good wine, so he hurriedly took a sip and took a sip.

"Good wine!"

Luo Guang smacked his lips, put down his wine glass, and sighed: "I'm not afraid of the jokes of the prince, Liao Fu and all the adults, although Jingshi is the imperial capital, but when it comes to winter, you can only eat cabbage and radish!" The woman I married is also ingenious, pickled, boiled, stewed, fried, burned, fried, and cooked in different ways, but it is still cabbage and radish to eat! ”

Luo Guang's exclamation made the people at the table laugh, and even Liu Wenyu, who was a little restrained after the table, also sneered.

Seeing this, Zhu Pingjin smiled and asked, "Wen Yu, you are also from the north." Tell me, what other dishes do you have in Shaanxi in winter? ”

"Son of the World!"

Liu Wenyu wanted to stand up, but was pressed back to his seat by Liao Daheng with a smile and a gesture. He thought for a while and said, "We have celery in Shaanxi in winter...... There are also persimmons, and the persimmon trees all over the mountain are all red, which is very beautiful...... If it's not too cold, there are lettuce...... There are many styles of Sichuan cuisine. By the way, the last time I got home, my father asked my aunt to cook a bamboo shoot stew with pork, which was really delicious and fragrant! ”

"Sichuan is a treasure land, especially rich in production, these are all silver. However, people will still starve to death in this treasure land! That shows that our policy of enriching the people is not yet in place! Zhu Pingjin said, and said to Luo Guang: "Luo Baihu knows the blessings and cherishes the blessings,

He will be a blessed man in the future! This Zhang Jimeng was born in an official eunuch, and because of the party dispute, he misled state affairs, and his reputation was ruined and left behind for 10,000 years, so we must take it as a warning! ”

Zhu Pingjin is clearly alluding to certain people in the DPRK and China. Liao Daheng was about to express his position, but was preempted by the opposite person: "I want to borrow a bald pen and write an article in the Fuxing Daily to explain the interrogation process in detail, and make Zhang Jimeng's rebellious ugly deeds public!" ”

It's Jinyi Wei Baihu Luo Guang again!

"Luo Baihu said it well!" Zhu Pingjin hurriedly encouraged loudly, and reminded by the way: "Zhang Jimeng is so arrogant, I don't know if he has a backer?" ”

"This ......" Luo Guang hesitated for a moment, and then said loudly: "Zhang Jimeng confessed: Zhou Yanru, the first assistant of the dynasty, had many letters with him!" It's just that the letter has been burned by Zhang Jimeng, and as for the Chinese of the letter, Zhang Jimeng refused to reveal it......"

Liao Daheng snorted coldly: "Zhang Jimeng is reluctant to die!" If he was going to die, he would have died! ”

"It depends on Luo Baihu's craftsmanship!" Master Qian hurriedly added.

Zhu Pingjin was so angry that he knocked on the table with his knuckles.

"Today, the saint uses such ministers as ministers, and the officials and troops are not defeated again and again! The case involves the first assistant of the dynasty, and after Luo Baihu has finished the trial, he can secretly believe Zhou Yanru's matter to Luo Zongxian! ”

Luo Zongxian in Zhu Pingjin's mouth refers to Luo Bingzhang, the commander of Jinyiwei.

"Obedience!"

With a chirp, a stream of spiced brine shot out from between Luo Guang's teeth.

"Luo Baihu is a traitor to the world, and the merit is in the community. This son of the world is now a member of the general! The secretaries persuaded Luo Baihu to have a cup! Zhu Pingjin made a final conclusion on Luo Guang's historical merits and future status.

The backyard of the southern county government is staggered. At the gate of the southern county office, a horse with a flag on his back struggled to pull the reins and strangle the sweaty horse.

"Report to the world!" The probe held up a telegram and shouted to the guards at the door: "General Yang Zhan's victory in the Nanjiang River!" ”

……

In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Yang Zhan, a native of Jiading Prefecture (Leshan), was thirty-eight years old.

Three years ago, he was recommended by Liao Daheng, who was then the deputy envoy of the Sichuan military garrison, to Beijing to refer to Wu Jinshi. Yang Zhan's kung fu was vividly displayed in the examination room, not only winning fame for himself and the Sichuan army, but also unexpectedly seizing the science and technology exploration flower, and the official guerrilla. After returning to Sichuan, Yang Zhan was very deferential to Liao Daheng, who had the grace of knowing him, and Liao Daheng also introduced him as a confidant and ordered him to train a new army and be the vanguard of the army.

In this offensive in Bazhou, northern Sichuan, Yang Zhan's task was to lead a battalion of more than 1,000 soldiers and 800 auxiliary soldiers to set off from Baizhang Pass and attack Nanjiang County.

After Yang Zhan's department left Baizhang Pass, he was attacked and harassed by local rioters along the road. After more than ten years of fighting, the Sichuan army has long been accustomed to the harassment tactics of the local tyrants, so they did not make a fuss and still maintained an unhurried pace of advancement. At the beginning of the first month, Yang Zhan's troops advanced through Gao Castle (now Sanjiang Town, Wangcang County) to Wuya Town (Wuya Township, now Shahe Town, Nanjiang County), and was finally blocked by the true face of Zhang Xian, the tyrant of the whole king, with about 500 men.

Wuya Town is located at the confluence of the Zhaiba River (Wulang River), Luoping River and Nanjiang River, at the end of a mountain beam protruding to the south. To capture the town of Wuya, it is necessary to cross the Zhaiba River first.

Instead of guarding the Zhaiba River crossing, the local rioters built a wooden fence stone village on the mountain beam behind the town, trying to take advantage of the steep mountains on both sides to induce the officers and soldiers to stay on the narrow mountain beams and consume the vitality and morale of the officers and soldiers.

However, after Yang Zhan captured Wuya Town, he did not rush to attack the enemy village behind the town, but spent nearly ten days building a fort wall around the town. Just when the enemy in the stockade began to relax, Yang Zhan suddenly launched a fierce attack one night, scattering the enemy and fleeing. After that, Yang Zhan changed his style of slow and slow in the past, and led his troops to quickly go north along the Nanjiang River Valley, and in just over two days, he completed the difficult and narrow stone slab mountain road of about 80 miles of the ancient road.

On the seventeenth day of the first month of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, at dawn on the same day that Wang Xiang invaded Bazhou, Yang Zhan suddenly led his troops to launch an attack on Nanjiang County.

Micang Mountain is actually the western section of Daba Mountain at the junction of Sichuan and Shaanxi. It is bounded by Ziyang County, Shaanxi, with rice warehouses in the west and buses in the east. The Micang Ancient Road is the general name of several ancient roads that cross the Micang Mountain and travel from the Sichuan Basin to the Hanzhong Basin.

The Rice Cang Ancient Road climbs over the lofty mountains and passes through the dense forests of the canyons. High on the mountain, surrounded by clouds and mist; In the canyon, the green water is murmuring. From ancient times to the present, the second brother of Bashan has taken his shoulders as a cart, a stone slab as a thoroughfare, a stone of grain, three stones of sweat, and traveled thousands of miles to conquer this mountain that spans east and west with his feet.

Nanjiang County is an important node of the land and water routes on this ancient rice cang road. From the Nanjiang River to the northeast, you can enter Nanzheng County on the edge of the Hanzhong Basin through Shangliang Town, Guangwu Mountain, Dam Inspection Division (Note 1) and Xishen Dam.

Nanjiang County is located on the right bank of the Nanjiang River, that is, the west bank, is a small city made of blue bricks and stones, with four city gates in the south, east and northwest. The official road from south to north is on the right bank of the Nanjiang River, leading directly to the south gate and the west gate.

The local tyrants thought that the official army was still in Wuya Town, and was attacked in a hurry, so they naturally focused on the west gate and the south gate. However, the local tyrants never imagined that shortly after the official army launched an attack on the west gate and the south gate, a large group of official troops suddenly and silently waded through the Nanjiang River, which was dry in winter, and launched a real main attack on the east gate Yinghui Gate (Note 2).

The city wall of Nanjiang was built in the Zhengde period, and the height of the city is only about one zhang and seven feet, which is similar to the height of Dazhu City. When the earth tyrant attacks the big bamboo, it is a ladder and a stone. The official army attacked Nanjiang very differently, they did not have many ladders, and there were not many people who climbed the city, but there were hundreds of archers under the city to cover. In the rain of arrows like flying locusts, dozens of local thugs fell to the city screaming in an instant.

Especially a tall officer and army general, he is even more powerful. He was seen holding a stiff bow, straddled a white horse, and dressed in bright red cotton armor (Note 3). As they galloped back and forth, the strings and arrows rang out, and the people at the head of the city fell in response.

The local thugs defending the city were shot with fear, and everyone was terrified. Within a quarter of an hour, the officers and soldiers jumped up to the city with broadswords and spears.

The city gate was easy to guard, and the local rioters in Nanjiang City immediately lost the courage to continue to resist. With the exception of a few who jumped out of the city and escaped, about seven or eight hundred people raised their hands as prisoners.

Yang Zhan captured Nanjiang City, dozens of leaders at all levels and stubborn local thugs were beheaded and used for war exploits, and the rest of the scar-faced and tattooed guys were all contained and retained as auxiliaries as long as they were willing to surrender.

The casualties in the Battle of Nanjiang were very small, so Yang Zhan did not settle in the county seat. In addition to leaving 300 soldiers and auxiliaries to defend the city, he also sent 300 men to continue northward along the Micang Road to capture the dam patrol on the Sichuan-Shaanxi border. The remaining main force of the guerrilla battalion, led by Yang Zhan himself, went to Tongjiang County, more than 200 miles to the southeast, through the Guanmen.

Why didn't Yang Zhan return to Wuya Town, and go straight to Bazhou along the Ba River through the two towns, but instead marched to Tongjiang County in the southeast?

Yang Zhan explained in the Tang newspaper that first, because Bazhou was the target of Wang Xiangzheng's barracks. He transferred to Bazhou, which not only violated the orders of Shangguan, but also suspected of competing with Wang Xiang; Second, he learned from the captives that Tongjiang County had not been lost, and that Li Cunhe and Tu Longju, the deputy general of Tongjiang County, were still alive. It's just that they have run out of food and have fallen into a desperate situation. The purpose of Yang Zhan's march into Tongjiang was to rescue the general and the people of a county.

……

In the backyard of the southern county government, Zhu Pingjin looked at Liao Daheng, whose face was ruddy and bright, and his stomach was full of wine, and praised loudly in the Tang newspaper: "Liao Gong really knows people!" Yang Zhanwen is strategic, brave and strategic, but also affectionate and righteous, and this son has another general today! ”

As he spoke, Zhu Pingjin crossed Liao Daheng and directly instructed Qian Weihan: "Mr. Qian, I heard that the eldest son of General Yang Zhan is named Jingxin, who is cultivated and studied in his hometown in Jiazhou, loyal and resolute, and has martial arts. This son wants to use it to fill the guard camp, and ask Mr. Qian to recruit him in the name of Liao Gong, but what? ”

Liao Daheng staggered to his feet, raised his wine glass towards Zhu Pingjian, and said loudly: "There is also a general, the prince of the world is not going to let go!" ”

Zhu Pingjin did not drink a drop of wine today. At this time, he also picked up the wine glass with two fingers.

"Tu Long, veteran! Every battle must be fought bravely, is the son of the world useless? Liao explained loudly.

"Duke Liao, when the dead man sneaks into Bazhou, pass on the will of this son. Bazhou, the pivot of Bashan. Wang Xiang has it and must not abandon it! It was decreed that Wang Xiang would defend Bazhou to the death and fight to the last soldier. People save the city, people die and the city is lost! Bazhou is not lost, and Wang Xiang should be the first credit of the official army! After speaking, Zhu Pingjin tilted his neck and poured a cup of hot old wine into his throat.

Note 1: Dam Inspection Division, that is, the dam scenic spot in Nanjiang County. A few miles to the east, is the secret military base of Han Xin's training in Hanzhong - the ancient city of Muyang.

Note 2: Yinghui Gate is now renamed Red Fourth Gate (the reason is not explained), and the original site is still there. Many years ago, Xiangmu visited here, and saw the dilapidated shops on both sides built with the door, and a mobile cigarette stall under the steps inside the door, which was neither magnificent nor elegant. There are four remaining big characters on the lintel "Chihua Quanchuan", read it aloud, and it is full of breath.

Note 3: In real history, this beautiful armor saved Yang Zhan's life. Zhang Xianzhong broke through Chengdu and caught Yang Zhan. Zhang Xianzhong's soldiers wanted to cut off Yang Zhan's head, but they didn't want this beautiful armor to be stained with blood. Yang Zhan flickered and said, it is better to take off the armor and cut off the head. So Zhang Xianzhong's stupid soldier untied the rope on Yang Zhan's hand and asked him to take off his armor. Yang Zhan complied, then jumped into the Funan River and drifted back to Leshan. Without this armor, there would have been no later great victory in the estuary, and there would have been no estuary sinking silver that archaeologists and ordinary people talked about.
