On the night of 27 August, after Zhao Ziliang had finished inspecting the barracks outside the city of Hengros, he stayed in the barracks and did not return to the city. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

As soon as he returned to the big tent of the Chinese army, Wang Can walked in, his face was very bad, Zhao Ziliang saw this and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Wang Can hesitated for a moment, and said in a somewhat low tone: "General, there are two news from Anxi and Chang'an, one good news and one bad news!" ”

Zhao Zi's conscience chuckled in his heart, but his face was calm, "Say, what's going on?" ”

"The good news is that General Gao Xianzhi has broken the Little Bolu Kingdom and cut off the control of the Little Bolu Kingdom by Tubo, and he has recently led a large army to return with the King and Queen of the Little Bolu (Tubo Princess), and it should have passed the Red Buddha Hall Road by now! The news has spread, his prestige has spread to the Tocharian tribes, and now the garrisons of the Great Food Country in the Tocharian tribes have gone north to our army, so the Tocharian tribes have fallen to our court after the threat of the Great Cannibal, and they have sent envoys to Chang'an! ”

Zhao Ziliang had a smile on his face, "I knew that Gao Xianzhi was a rare general, he really came out!" The other piece of bad news? Say, the sky can't fall, it's no big deal! ”

"No!" Wang Can swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "Hexi and Longyou's attack on Shibao City failed, and the losses were heavy, Liu Guangyao, who was recommended by Li Linfu to be in charge of the main attack, put the blame for the failure on General Wang Zhongsi, saying that during the attack on Shibao City, General Wang Zhongsi delayed sending troops to contain the Tubo army, which caused the failure of the plan to attack Shibao City, and Li Linfu instructed Jiyang not to drive Wei Lin to falsely accuse General Wang Zhongsi to the emperor, saying that during his tenure as the assassin of Shuozhou in Hedong, General Wang Zhongsi was also the envoy of Hedong Jiedu at that time, Once said that in the early years with the prince to play in the palace, deep feelings, he is willing to respect the prince, the emperor read Wei Lin's book after being furious, immediately summoned General Wang Zhongsi into the court, recently there is news that after General Wang Zhongsi entered the court, the emperor ordered the trial of the three divisions, the general was tortured in prison to the end, miserable! ”

With a "bang", the desk was slapped by Zhao Ziliang and fell apart instantly, he was furious, and couldn't help but scold: "Bastard bastard!" ”

Zhao Ziliang's eyes were red, his fists were clenched and creaked, and he was panting for breath for a long time before he sat down on the chair with a decadent face.

Seeing this, Wang Can's heart was like a knife, and he sounded the news he got before, and said: "General, there is another matter, yesterday an agent got a message from a big food merchant from Baishui City, saying that there has been a riot in Khorasan Province of the Great Food Country recently, which is quite loud, and there is a faint trend of sweeping the whole country, I don't know if this news is true or not!" ”

"Oh?" Zhao Ziliang came back to his senses, his heart moved, isn't it Abu? The Abbasids have already revolted in the Great Eclipse? The country of the big food in white will soon be overthrown by the big food in black? If that's the case, then you should be able to take advantage of it!

Zhao Ziliang pondered for a long time, and shouted outside the tent: "Come on, go find Bolhan, Liu Dan, Chen Qing, Cen Shen, Zhao Hu and others, go quickly!" ”

"No!"

Soon, the high-ranking generals and officials of the army soon came to Zhao Ziliang's big tent of the Chinese army, and Zhao Ziliang saw that everyone had arrived, and immediately ordered: "No one is allowed to approach within 20 cloths outside the big tent, otherwise you will be killed!" ”

"Command!"

After the arrangement was completed, Zhao Ziliang said to the officials and generals in the tent: "I will tell you a good news and a bad news, General Gao Xianzhi, the envoy of Anxi soldiers and horses and the deputy envoy of the camp festival, recently broke the small Bolu country, captured the king and queen of the little Bolu, cut off the control of Tubo over the small Bolu country, and made my Tang Dynasty once again threaten the countries of the Western Regions!" ”

All the officials and generals were happy when they heard the news, you must know that on the plateau at an altitude of thousands of meters at the low level of Xiao Boluguo, Tian Renwan and Fumeng Lingcha had organized troops to attack many times, but each time they failed, and this time Gao Xianzhi succeeded in one fell swoop, and his military talent can be seen.

After making everyone happy for a while, Zhao Ziliang said in a low tone: "General Wang Zhongsi was framed, Li Linfu and others fabricated charges, Your Majesty is convinced of slander, and ordered General Wang to be summoned to the capital for the trial of the three divisions, and now General Wang is in prison, suffering from torture all day long, and his body is incomplete, extremely miserable!" ”

"Ah, how can this be?" Cen Shen and the others were shocked.

Liu Shan asked: "General Wang is Your Majesty's adopted son, hasn't Your Majesty always trusted General Wang very much?" Why did it be so easy to listen to the slander of Li Linfu and others this time? ”

Chen Qing snorted coldly: "Hmph, who is the saint today, you are not unclear, the older you get, the heavier your suspicion becomes, especially when it comes to the throne, no matter who gets involved in this matter, it will not end well, General Wang Zhongsi is just an adopted son, even if he is his own son, His Majesty has not killed him!" ”

If it was before, Zhao Ziliang would definitely scold Chen Qing, how could this kind of thing be said nonsense, but now Zhao Ziliang has seen clearly the situation of corruption in the court, the emperor is old, he is too happy to make great achievements, and he is especially afraid of the idea of others hitting his throne, as long as anyone hits his idea of the throne, he will never be soft when he kills people, which is also the reason why Zhao Ziliang has never interacted with any courtiers, because as long as he interacts with court officials, he will inevitably fall into the Taoist party dispute.

Zhao Ziliang said very sadly: "General Wang is now the first general of my Tang Dynasty, the first battle of his life is the battle of Yuchuan, he led three hundred elite cavalry to raid the Tubo army, broke the enemy army, Tubo Zampu was so frightened that he fled in panic, this battle beheaded thousands, captured more than 10,000 cattle and sheep. In the twenty-sixth year of Kaiyuan, Tubo gathered 30,000 horses and horses to launch a counteroffensive in Yancheng, the battle situation of our army was unfavorable, morale plummeted, General Wang was the general of Zuo Wei Wei Lang at that time, he led hundreds of light cavalry to kill into the enemy formation, took the lead, was brave and invincible, and killed the Tubo people in a big disorder, the leading general at that time, General Du Wang, seized the fighter plane to lead the troops to attack, and killed the Tubo defeat. Later, he led his troops in Shuofang to attack the Khitan and Xi people who repeatedly harassed the northern Xinjiang, three battles and three victories, killing the Khitan and Xi people and never dared to go south again, General Wang's achievements were high, he suffered this tragic ending, so if it goes on, what future does Datang have at all? ”

Zhao Ziliang's words made the officials and generals present feel related, as the saying goes, the rabbit dies and the fox is sad, let alone people?

Zhao Ziliang took a deep breath and continued: "If you want to talk about war merits, I, Zhao, will not lose to General Wang, but if I want to be a man and a soldier, I am not as good as General Wang!" General Wang is not just a famous general, he is also a great soldier! Since ancient times, they were born for war, and they have become famous for daring to fight, being good at fighting, and being brave, and the famous generals at home and abroad in ancient and modern times are all like this! But a great soldier is different from a famous general in the general sense, a great soldier is not born for war, he is born for the elimination of war, he is born for peace! General Wang often said; 'When the country is in peace, it's just for the generals to soothe the people!' I don't want to exhaust China's strength and make a name for myself! In ancient and modern history, there is no one who can say this, except for General Wang! I Zhao someone wants to be an official, I want to be a big official, and sometimes I have to borrow the power of the country to achieve my fame for my future, who among you doesn't like fame? Who in the world can reach the realm of General Wang? ”

The atmosphere in the big tent is extremely sad, a generation of famous generals has fallen into such a fate, whose sorrow is it? Is it the emperor, or is it the imperial court?

Liu Shan said to Zhao Ziliang excitedly: "General, General Wang is now in deep trouble, and there are many auspicious and unlucky, many loyal names in the court and the central government will be framed to death by Li Linfu and his henchmen, Datang can no longer withstand the toss, we must find a way to rescue General Wang!" ”

Zhao Ziliang sighed: "I, Zhao, was also framed by Li Linfu and others, so I was demoted here by the emperor, and now the emperor looks at me unpleasantly, Li Linfu and others are eager to kill me, if I write a letter to intercede, Li Linfu and others will inevitably go forward to slander the saint, not only will I not be able to save General Wang at that time, but I am afraid that General Wang will die faster, and even I will be implicated!" For today's plan, I can only find another way! By the way, Wang Can, after General Wang was summoned to the capital, who is now in charge of the overall situation in Hexi and Longyou? ”

Wang Can arched his hand and said: "General, after General Wang was summoned into the capital, His Majesty issued an order to let An Sishun serve as the envoy of Hexi Jiedu, and ordered Ge Shuhan to serve as the deputy envoy of Longyou Jiedu, and know what will happen in the future!" General Wang's authority has been split in two! ”

Zhao Ziliang sighed when he heard this: "General Wang has today's disaster, but I am afraid that it is also related to his position as the envoy of the four major festivals!" ”

After speaking, Zhao Ziliang looked at Cen Shen and said: "Lord Cen, please repair a few letters for me, one to Ge Shuhan, one to An Sishun, one to Gao Xianzhi, and the last one to General Fumeng, forget it, General Fumeng don't write there, Ge Shuhan and An Sishun are both my students, now I write to ask them to write to the emperor to intercede for General Wang, presumably they should not refuse, Gao Xianzhi and I have an old relationship, and I should also buy me to find someone's face, and the three of them come forward to intercede, The emperor should also give them some affection! ”

Cen Shen listened to it and hurriedly asked people to prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone, wrote three letters in succession on the spot, and showed them to Zhao Ziliang one by one, Zhao Ziliang was very satisfied after reading it, and immediately put it in an envelope, and dripped fire paint, and sent it out urgently for 800 miles.

After dealing with this matter, Zhao Ziliang continued: "Ladies and gentlemen, although General Wang's matter makes me feel cold, this must not affect our determination to deal with the great cannibals, the situation inside and outside the court is terrible, which makes my Tang Dynasty begin to become empty, so we, the frontier guards, should train soldiers and horses, reserve weapons, grain and grass, and guard the territory to prevent foreign enemies from taking advantage of the situation!" Tomorrow morning, we will go on the expedition as usual, and there will be no mistakes! ”

Everyone said in unison: "No! (To be continued.) )
