Chapter 391: Dou Jiande Dispatches Troops (4)
In the evening, the eldest grandson Wuji came to Yun Dingxing's residence. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Eldest Sun Wuxian, what is the matter with the opportunity you are talking about? It's just the two of us right now, so let's say anything clearly! ”
"Huh! Lord Yun, let me ask you, what did you go to the emperor's inner library to choose jewelry for? ”
"Humph! This official was ordered by the Holy Lord to reward the soldiers and horses of King Dou. The eldest grandson Wuxian smiled:
"Hahaha! Reward King Dou's soldiers and horses. It's really nice to say, at the beginning, how many generals and horses in Luoyang made military achievements for the emperor, and what did the emperor reward them? Even if the military salary for half a month is like digging a piece of meat on the emperor's body, and you also know the situation in Luoyang now, there is hunger everywhere, and the families of those generals who are out of the country are held hostage in the palace, and the people who are imprisoned are next to each other, no less than 10,000 people, there is no food, and dozens of people die of hunger a day. The emperor recruited troops to fight endlessly, the stored grain was quickly eaten up, and the people in the city ate human flesh. Some people took the mud and put it in the urn, washed it with water, sank the sand and stones to the bottom, took out the mud that floated on it, mixed the bran bran in it, and made cakes to eat, and everyone was swollen and their legs and feet were weak, and they lay down on the road one by one. Even people like Shang Shulang, Lu Junye, and Guo Zigao starved to death in the ravine. Did the emperor give them a penny of silver? "What the eldest grandson Wuxian said is the truth! In fact, Wang Shichong's ending is not good now, and Wang Shichong's own stinginess and stinginess also prayed a lot. Seeing that Yun Dingxing did not refute himself, Eldest Sun Wuxian continued:
"Moreover, Xia Guan also carefully observed the jewelry selected by the adults, many of which were tribute treasures from the former Sui Dynasty. When did the emperor become so generous? Unless there's only one possibility? That is, Dou Jiande has a change. Do you want to retire? ”
"Ahh What the? How do you know? ......" Yun Dingxing realized that he had revealed his mouth and immediately closed it. The eldest grandson, Wuxian, realized that he had guessed correctly, and hid his face and snickered. Yun Dingxing realized that he was being pulled by the nose by the eldest grandson Wuxian.
"Eldest grandson Wuxian, you have said so much here, let's get the right game! What exactly are the opportunities you were talking about? ”
"Lord Yun, you also know that now this Luoyang is already a dangerous place for soldiers, I don't know if Lord Yun wants to be a loyal minister of the Great Zheng Court and be buried with Wang Shichong? Or is there another way out? However, judging from Lord Yun's usual performance, Lord Yun will definitely find another way...... "If someone else said this, Yun Dingxing would definitely scold, but today, Yun Dingxing looked at Changsun Wuxian very calmly, what Changsun Wuxian said was very right, now Luoyang is already a dangerous place for soldiers, Yun Dingxing feels that it is time to find a master:
"Lord Eldest Sun, what hole cards do you have, please show them first! Could it be that the eldest grandson has already made some contact with Brother Ling! Eldest Sun Wuxian also raised a thumbs up to Yun Dingxing in his heart - he really deserves to be an old fox who has been running several dynasties.
"Good! Now that Lord Yun has made things clear, Lord Yun will tell you first, Your Majesty asked Lord Yun to choose the jewelry, is there any movement in King Dou!? ”
"Yes! The eldest grandson is worthy of being a tiger of the gate, and this is indeed the case! King Dou wanted to obey Ling Jing and leave Luoyang, concentrate all his forces, cross the Yellow River to the north, capture Huaizhou Heyang, and arrange for the main general to defend the town. Then he led a large group of men and horses to beat drums and raise flags, crossed the Taihang Mountain, and drove into Shangdang County, bluffing to hide the purpose, and did not have to trouble fighting. Hurry up to Hukou, gradually disturb Pujin, and seize the land east of the river. After hearing what Yun Dingxing said, Eldest Sun Wuxian said:
"So the emperor is afraid that after Dou Jiande leaves with the army, Luoyang will be left as a lonely city!" Yun Dingxing nodded, and the eldest grandson Wuxian smiled:
"Lord Yun, it's really providence, this is heaven's will! Good thing you ran into me, haha! Yun Dingxing was a little puzzled.
"Lord Eldest Sun, Xia Guan doesn't have the slightest intention of joking with you! Please let the subordinate give you an analysis! First, if you take those rare treasures and go directly to Dou Jiande's army, then Dou Jiande will definitely ask you directly why the saint is so polite and sends so many treasures and gold and silver. How do you answer, my lord? Yun Dingxing nodded after listening.
"Second, don't hide it from your lord, your character, in Dou Jiande's view, can not enter Dou Jiande's eyes, if the adult has a little inappropriate speech to Dou Jiande, it will not only cause King Dou to be displeased, but then the adult has not completed the holy entrustment, then the adult thinks, even if Dou Jiande fights the army with the two countries, and does not kill the ancient precept of the envoy to let the adult go, will the saint let you go? And under the next is different, according to the understanding of Dou Jiande, this person does not value the family as much as other clans, it is quite heroic, and my father Changsun Sheng was the military god of my Central Plains when he was in the former Sui Dynasty, and the Turks have always enshrined my father's godship, and Dou Jiande has always been attached to the Turks, and naturally he respects my father very much. "Changsun Wuxian is right, although Changsun Sheng has been dead for many years, but his reputation on the grassland has been unwaning for a long time, and Dou Jiande also respects heroes very much, there were many temples of Changsun Sheng in Hebei, Dou Jiande knew it, and also put Changsun Sheng's spiritual position to Le Shou. After Yun Dingxing listened to the words of the eldest grandson Wuxian, early the next morning, he asked Wang Shichong for an order to let the eldest grandson Wuxian go to Dou Jiande's army to work together, Wang Shichong was allowed to play, and on the way, the eldest grandson Wuxian quietly said to Yun Dingxing:
"Lord Yun, you divide these treasures in the second half first."
"Lord Eldest Sun, do you want to ......" Eldest Sun Wuxian nodded:
"Lord Yun, after you arrived in Dou Jiande's army, you only talked to Dou Jiande about the labor army, and never mentioned that the emperor already knew that King Dou wanted to give up Luoyang and seize the land of Hedong, Dou Jiande is a man who values righteousness, and after receiving our heavy gifts, he will feel guilty, and the lower officials are bribing other generals with other jewelry, gold and silver, so that they can speak in Dou Jiande's ear, so that King Dou can be prevented from leaving Luoyang."
"Eldest grandson, Takami!" After Yun Dingxing and Eldest Sun Wuxian came to Dou Jiande's army, Yun Dingxing never mentioned it after asking to see Dou Jiande, but just said that he was ordered by Wang Shichong to come to the labor army, looking at Dou Jiande's contemptuous expression, Yun Dingxing nodded in his heart - what Eldest Sun Wuxian said was indeed not wrong. After the eldest grandson Wuxian came to Dou Jiande's army, he privately lured various generals with gold, silver and jewelry to disrupt Dou Jiande's decision-making. All the generals advised:
"Ling Jing is just a scholar, how can he talk to him about fighting?" Dou Jiande also heard that the eldest grandson Wuxian privately sent a lot of jewelry, gold and silver to various generals in the military camp, so he jokingly said:
"The generals don't want to leave, maybe it's because they received Wang Shichong's jewelry!" Zhang Shihui defended to Dou Jiande:
"King! What you said is indeed good, the last general has indeed received a lot of generous gifts from Wang Shichong, but think about it, the king, now that we have hundreds of thousands of troops stationed here, if we want to leave the camp, will Li Shimin let us go? There is also the land of Hedong since it was occupied by Liu Wuzhou and recaptured from the new, it was garrisoned by Li Jiancheng, who is Li Jiancheng, that is a god who has been favored by God and can communicate with God. Once we were kicked in the back of the ass by Li Shimin first, and then because of the labor expedition, even if we arrived in Hedong, maybe Li Jiancheng was already in a bad pocket, waiting for us, please think twice! Dou Jiande pinched his beard and did not speak. Zhang Shihui continued to add fire, took out a handful of jewelry and said to Dou Jiande:
"King, look at these jewels, look at its workmanship, look at its brilliance, at the beginning, nearly sixty percent of the wealth of the Great Sui flowed into Luoyang, and the magnificence and luxury of the Luoyang Palace are not comparable to our Shandong and Hebei regions. After we captured Luoyang, we happened to ascend the throne in the Luoyang Imperial Palace, and the justifiable king came to the world to fight against Li Tang, the king, aren't you tempted at all? The other generals also looked at Dou Jiande, and Dou Jiande slowly let go of the ideas in his heart under the gaze of the other generals.
"Hmmm! You have a point. The generals knelt in front of Dou Jiande:
"The king is wise!" After the generals left, Dou Jiande called Ling Jing over, apologized to Ling Jing and said:
"Now the ministers are excited, this is God help me. With this decisive battle, we will surely win a great victory. I have listened to your advice and cannot do what you say. Ling Jing insisted on arguing:
"King, don't miss the opportunity, you won't come again! And Weichen heard that Wang Shichong's envoys scattered gold, silver and jewelry in the army, bribed all the generals, and there was a suspicion of disturbing the morale of the army, please make a clear decision! Dou Jiande was furious:
"Don't say it, Ling Jing, you're just a scholar, you don't know how to fight at all. Okay, you're good to go. ”
"The Great King......" Dou Jiande didn't let Ling Jing speak, and directly asked the guards to put Ling Jing out. Ling Jing had no choice but to ask to see Mrs. Cao:
"Madam, this matter is related to the survival of our dynasty, please persuade Madame in the ear of the king." Since Mrs. Cao knew that Dou Jiande wanted to pass on the world to Cao Dan, she slowly thought about her original behavior, plus after Wang Fubao's death, Dou Jiande's expedition to Youzhou was unfavorable, and she also knew through some channels that Cao Dan was getting more and more excessive, and made a lot of angry things, and felt that if Cao Dan really ascended the throne and became the emperor by then, there must be a few courtiers around him who could admonish, so he was willing to help Ling Jing say something, and at night, Dou Jiande came to Mrs. Cao's tent to sleep, Mrs. Cao admonished Dou Jiande:
"The opinion of the sacrificial wine Ling Jing can be adopted, why don't you adopt it? Please follow the road of Fukou, take advantage of the emptiness of the Tang Dynasty's troops, concentrate your forces to accelerate the advance, in order to seize the land in Shanbei, and then outflank Guanzhong to the west with the power of the Turks, the Tang court will inevitably recruit back troops to defend itself, then the siege of Wang Shichong will be lifted. Now the troops are stranded outside the city of Wujiao, and the time has dragged on for a long time, and they have worked hard for themselves in vain, and they are afraid that things will not be done. "Dou Jiande has been upset about his military disadvantage recently, and his generals have received a lot of gifts from Wang Shichong, and he is short of people, and Zhang Shihui also said that Dou Jiande's heart is in his heart, so he is not willing to leave. He shouted loudly to Mrs. Cao:
"Fighting a war is not a woman's business. Besides, Zheng Guo's life is on the verge of waiting for us to go quickly, since he promised to rescue them, how can he retreat when he encounters difficulties, and show the world that we don't talk much? Alright, this king still has a lot of military affairs to do today, so I won't rest here with you. You go to sleep first! Mrs. Cao cried behind Dou Jiande:
"King! The king ...... "Mrs. Cao's crying behind Dou Jiande did not save Dou Jiande's heart, and Dou Jiande still left Mrs. Cao's tent without looking back!"
