Chapter 249: Unquiet Sichuan
He was murdered and poisoned by righteousness
Die for the fame of Juyuan
Li Haoyi finally had high ambitions and was promoted to the deputy commander of the army stationed in Xingzhou. Although he is the deputy commander of the capital, he is the same as the commander of the capital, and he is on an equal footing with his sworn enemy Wang Xi.
More than a month after the suppression of Wu Xi's rebellion, Li Haoyi took the initiative to ask for orders from the Xuanfu Division, requesting to take advantage of the emptiness of the Jin State to capture and recover the four prefectures outside the Guanwai.
An Quan also thought it was a good idea, and first asked for the opinion of Wang Xi, the commander of the capital. Wang Xi shook his head, I'm afraid not, if the Jin army is prepared, it can't be attacked, and then it is defeated and retreats, and then loses the city, how can it compensate for the loss.
Li Haoyi said that the words of the capital are not good. The west and the west are the heartland, and the west and the lower are the three states that can be restored without a fight. If you don't want it now, you won't regret it.
He also faced An Bin and said, Lord Xuanfu, Li is willing to bring 1,000 cavalry and infantry, 200 daredevils, and give me ten days of grain and grass to ensure that Xihe will be taken.
An Quan also sought the opinion of Xie Yuanming, the envoy of Xuanfu.
The idea is very good, if this move is successful, a good thing will happen, and at this time the court will wait for the good news of recovering the lost territory. Xie Yuanming said slowly.
An Quan approved Li Haoyi's request, and the Jinshi Wang Rongzhong brother led a 1,000-strong loyal army to respond. The next day, Li Haoyi led his troops to set off, mainly attacking Heisongling, and the loyal and righteous army attacked Dutouling twice, and the Jin soldiers suffered many casualties. All the way down the mountain high fort nine, on the seventh day, besieged the city of Xihezhou.
Li Haoyi led the crowd to attack the city, braved arrows and stones, attacked upwards without fear of death, opened a bloody road, and attacked the city. Seeing the Song army coming, Yan Qin couldn't help but get on his horse and flee for his life, the city gate was wide open, the Song army entered in a crowd, and the people cheered and worshipped.
At this time, although Xie Yuanming was a Xuanfu envoy, he was old and frail, and he was unwilling to intervene in political affairs, and all government affairs were handled by An Quan.
An Quan made a suggestion to the imperial court: the commander of all the armies in Chuzhou, formerly known as the commander of the armies of Xingzhou, Wu Xi changed his name when he called the puppet king, and commanded more than 60,000 soldiers of the ten armies, and the military power was too great, and it was recommended to restore the original name of Xingzhou, add the deputy commander of the armies, divide it into two, and each lead five armies to divide its military power. In late May of the third year of Kaixi (1207), the imperial court issued an edict: on the basis of the Xingzhou Metropolitan Division, the Xingzhou Deputy Metropolitan Unified Division was established, Wang Xi was the Xingzhou Metropolitan Division, and Li Haoyi was the Xingzhou Deputy Metropolitan Division.
After taking office, the first thing he did was to lead his troops to attack Qinzhou. In May, he led an army of 30,000 into the siege of Soaojiao Fort (now Tianshuinan, Gansu), and Gao Qi, the commander of the Jindu Dynasty, led his troops to help.
Li Haoyi set up a formation in the valley, divided the military car into left and right wings, ambushed the crossbow under the car, led an army to fight with the Jin army, feinted retreat, lured the Jin army into an ambush, repelled the Jin army, pursued by the momentum, and the Jin army formed a formation to defend. In the battle, there was no winner or loser, the Shuhu Gao Qinai divided the cavalry into two parts to attack in turn, and secretly sent a fine cavalry to attack the Song army from the mountain gallop, the Song army moved, suffered heavy casualties, and then broke the siege and retreated.
Li Haoyi's meritorious service and promotion angered Wang Xi. Ordered someone to find Liu Changguo, deputy commander of the right army of the Xingzhou Deputy Metropolitan Division, Changguo, it's okay over there.
What is good? Li Haoyi is the most boring person, all he thinks about all day long is training soldiers, fighting wars, and training people at every turn.
Okay, I don't know you yet, spending money is like running water, where it's fun, you're there. No, take this ten thousand taels of silver and spend it. Clapped her hands, and the girl surnamed Sun came to the front, did you see it? This is Wu Dashuai's favorite Sun beauty, only sixteen years old, send you.
Jie Shuai, how embarrassing is this.
Take it for you, don't I'll turn my face. With a wave of her hand, Sun Meiren went out.
Liu Changguo knows that he must ask for something this time, Jie Shuai, you can tell me if you have something.
Wang Xi said lightly: It's not a big deal, I just don't want to see that Li Haoyi, you can send him on the road.
Liu Changguo is Wang Xi's hardcore, and he cultivated and raised it single-handedly. When the Xingzhou Metropolitan Division was divided, Wang Xi deliberately assigned him to the Deputy Metropolitan Division, in order to insert an eyeliner next to Li Haoyi. Where did Li Haoyi know, so he put Liu in the right army.
Liu Changguo also pretended to be real, holding his tail between his legs, praising and complimenting Li Haoyi, and Li Haoyi gradually fell in love with him.
One evening, Liu Changguo rode home on horseback and happened to meet Li Haoyi. The Great Commandery, it's so late to go back.
Li Haoyi smiled, didn't you just leave.
I'm here to get something. Great Ruler, you've worked so hard, you've lost weight. It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, my daughter-in-law will cook a few dishes, and the pasta is also good, you give me a face, I invite you to my house to drink, do you think it's okay?
Li Haoyi said, this is not good, it will cause you trouble.
Wine is less than a thousand glasses of confidants. The more they talked, the more speculative they became, and the more they drank, the more excited they became, until dawn. Li Haoyi left the Liu family.
After arriving home, he fell asleep, and after a while, the abdominal pain was unbearable, vomiting and diarrhea, his wife Ma Shi hurriedly found his younger brother Li Haogu, and when Langzhong came, Li Haoyi had died of bleeding.
Judging by the symptoms, he died of food poisoning.
The three brothers Li Haogu, Haoren, and Haowen inquired, and knew that they were drinking in Liu Chang's country, and went straight to the Liu family.
The Li brothers rushed to the Xuanfu Division to complain about their grievances, and An Quan was still prevaricating, but they heard the voices of people outside the government office, and the 2,000 officers and soldiers of the Destroying Front Army gathered outside the door, and strongly demanded that the pacification department immediately issue an official document, and the whole Sichuan will take the murderer Liu Changguo. In the face of the officers and soldiers who were about to mutiny, An Quan was so frightened that he was colorless: he sent several government officers to chase Liu Changguo everywhere.
On the afternoon of the third day, Liu Changguo and his wife were captured in Nanzheng County, but Liu was already dead. It turned out that after Li Haoyi went out, Liu Changguo told his wife that he had put arsenic in Li Haoyi's food, and the Li family would soon come to retaliate, and he sent her back to her parents' house, and then fled for his life. In this way, the couple rode horses for two days and arrived at his brother-in-law's house. That night, Liu Changguo, who had slept well, suddenly woke up, jumped up as if he had a nervous disorder, and said that Li Haoyi was looking for his life, and he was terrified and died of a carbuncle on his back.
The dead Liu Anguo and his wife were escorted back to Xingzhou, and the Li Haoren brothers did not ask about 3721, and they were chopped into several pieces.
It was also at this time that the Li family suspected that Li Haoyi's death was related to Wang Xi, and a year later, Wang Xi was reappointed as the commander of Jingnan and was killed at the post station on the way to office. Naturally, this paragraph is a later story.
At that time, there was an escort team named Zhao Yanna, who killed Wu Xi's beloved general Luxi in Kuizhou, and the imperial court promoted him to be the general judge of Luzhou, Yang Juyuan's heart was unbalanced: can you kill Luxi be a general judge, and can you also give a general sentence for killing Wu Xi? also wrote a special letter to thank An Quan for recommending to the imperial court, which has such a sentence: Feiya Liaocheng is deeply admired by Lu Zhonglian's high friendship; Unseal and go to Pengze, the breeze of the Tao Jing Festival.
When he learned that the Xingyuan capital controlled Peng Yuan and the first assistant of the dynasty, Han Yanxuan, Yang Juyuan found Peng Yuan and asked him to transfer the written materials to this Pingzhang lord, so that the court could understand the truth. repeatedly told Lord An about his situation, and wanted to kill Lord An, who was already the Xuan Fu envoy, An Quan was completely angry.
Coincidentally, someone reported that Yang Juyuan conspired with Mi Fu and Che Yanwei to make trouble, and An Daren ordered Wang Xi, the capital of Xingzhou, to be arrested and interrogated.
The former army of the Xingzhou Metropolitan Department reported to Chen An again: Yang Juyuan contacted a group of outlaws, entered the Dasanguan, wanted to burn Xingzhou Prefecture, and waited for an opportunity to assassinate An Xuanfu.
With an excuse, it was easy to do, and An Kwon began to act.
At this time, Yang Juyuan was not in Xingzhou, two hundred miles northwest of Xingzhou. Suddenly, on a whim, he wrote a letter to the envoy of the Fengxiang Mansion of the Jin State, trying to recruit people to surrender and ask him to sacrifice the Fengxiang Mansion and defect to the Great Song Dynasty. After receiving it, the envoy of Fengxiang Mansion felt funny, so he sent the letter to the Xingzhou Xuanfu Division and fell into the hands of An Quan. In the name of the Xuanfu Division, Ann urged Yang to return.
After the letter of persuasion was sent, Yang also felt that the Jin officials would not surrender easily, so he led 500 troops to attack Qishan County, but was defeated at Changqiao. After receiving the official letter from An Quan, Yang Juyuan was a little suspicious, didn't he ask me to go back and investigate the crime of defeat?
He had personally learned the methods of this Ontarian. Sun Zhongrui, the commander of the army after the Xingzhou Metropolitan Division, somehow offended him. Sun Zhongrui lost the Dasanguan, and the Xuanfu Division issued an official document to recall him, wanting him to return to Xingzhou to punish the crime. Sun Zhongrui knew that this trip was auspicious, so he used the excuse to delay. An Quan called Yang Juyuan and asked him to lead 2,000 troops to Fengzhou with Zhu Bangning to support Sun Zhongrui. Yang Zhu led people to Fengzhou, Sun Zhongrui came out of the tent to greet him, but unexpectedly, in Yang Zhu's team, a few big men suddenly flashed out, raised their knives and slashed at Sun Zhongrui and his son Sun Kui, and the father and son soon fell in blood. After that, An Quan reported to the imperial court, accusing Sun Zhongrui of having sent a congratulatory table to Wu Xi when Wu Xi surrendered to the enemy.
The person who sent the official document of the Xuanfu Division was Yang Juyuan's acquaintance, Gao Yuecheng, the chief bookkeeper of Liangquan County, Yang Juyuan recommended him as the transportation officer of the army, seeing Yang's doubts in his heart, Gao Yuecheng patted his chest and said, It's okay, Lord Xuanfu will not blame you, I promise.
Yang Juyuan returned to the shogunate of the Xuanfu Division, and sure enough, it was fine, and Peng Lu, the commander of Zhixing Yuandu, came and told him that the letter to Han Pingzhang had been sent, and it was estimated that there would be a response soon. After speaking, he got up to say goodbye, Yang sent out the door, Peng waved his hand, and the two sergeants stepped forward and held it down. It turned out that Peng Lu was ordered by An Quan to arrest him.
was suddenly arrested, Yang Juyuan scolded loudly: What are you doing here? The two sergeants ignored him and escorted him to the lobby of the Xuanfu Division, where Yang shouted hoarsely: "What crime have I committed? An Quan looked at him through the screen, and his subordinates told him: "Just because you falsely claim to be the deputy envoy of Xuanfu, you can be punished for your crimes." ”
Juyuan said: "I am using a divisive strategy, and I will definitely prove that I am above board in the future." I couldn't help but say that he was shackled and sent to Langzhou Prison.
An Quan sent someone to give him wine and food, and told him that it was not that Lord An couldn't get along with you, but that you had committed three major crimes: 1. Conspiring with Mi Fu and Che Yanwei, this has the confession of Mi Che and the others; Second, you contact the outlaws and want to burn Xingzhou Prefecture; 3. Fraudulently writing a letter to the gold thief in the name of the deputy envoy of Xuanfu.
Yang Juyuan knows that this is the crime that he wants to add, and it seems that there is more luck and less luck. The trustee told Lord An: "Yang has no shame in his body, and he has no regrets in his death; Only the little sister has not yet married, please take care of the adult. ”
A few days later, Yang Juyuan was escorted to Longwei Beach of the Da'an Army, and the general Fan Shixian called on the shore, Yang knew that the time for death had come, and pointed to the ground: "It's good to die in this place." Fan Shixian said: "Yang Xuanshen, I've been thirsty for a long time, why don't you have a drink?" Yang shook his head and didn't drink. Fan Shixian said again: "Xuanshen has been using the lotus weapon for a long time, and you are tired of wearing shackles, so you can make yourself comfortable by untying it?" Before he could answer, the executioner raised his knife and fell, and the other hero who killed the traitor Wu Xi was also in a different place.
After that, Langzhou Prison reported the suicide to the Propaganda and Rehabilitation Department.
There are no impermeable walls. The murder of Yang Juyuan caused speculation among the officers and soldiers of the Xingzhou Deputy Metropolitan Division, and the two heroes died within half a year. An Quan was afraid of causing turmoil, so since Shangtiao Chen resigned, the imperial court changed An Quan to Zhitan Prefecture, and sent Liu Jia as a pacification envoy in Sichuan to stabilize people's hearts.
