Chapter 7 I have been bloodied for 30 years in the past, and now I am the emperor of Tang (7)
The emperor wants to abandon Kyoto and run, this is a great event, even if the city defense of Changle Mansion is as strong as a barrier, if this kind of news spreads, the army and civilians will definitely flee, so how to defend the city, isn't it equivalent to giving it over?
- What's more, Changle's city defense is not so strong. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Lao Shangshu, who got the news, picked up his robe and ran over, blocking in front of Wang Yanjun, who was riding on a horse, and grabbed the reins of the horse with a pair of withered hands, and actually gave birth to a lot of strength out of thin air, so that Wang Yanjun did not break free for a while.
"Your Majesty can't go! If Your Majesty leaves, Changle will definitely not be able to hold on, and then Damin will be in danger! Lao Shangshu and old tears persuaded Wang Yanjun.
"Get out of here!" Outside the city, the Tang Army Sailor is slaughtering the Min Army Sailor, and the Tang Army is rushing to attack, and soon Changle Mansion will fall into a heavy siege, at this time Wang Yanjun is in a panic, where can Lao Shangshu block the way, "Dare to block my way, you are not afraid that I will cut off your head?!" ”
The old Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials was sad.
I think that when Wang Zhenzhi was there, he assisted and governed Fujian with him, and after many years of painstaking pouring, he finally made Fujian great. The people live and work in peace and contentment, the treasury is also quite full, and Wang Zhenzhi is also crowned king, and he himself is in a high position.
Unexpectedly, Wang Zhenzhi collapsed, Wang Yanjun killed his brother and usurped the throne, and that's it, after he ascended the throne, he was close to the villain and far away from the virtuous ministers, and let the traitors such as Xue Wenjie control the military and government, which made Fujian complain, and the good Jiangshan Society became a pile of broken copper and iron, so that the lifelong efforts of Lao Shangshu and Wang Shenzhi were ruined.
Lao Shangshu is already a person in the twilight, the so-called desolate evening scene, is there even more of this?
With such a pain in his heart, Lao Shangshu suddenly heard that Wang Yanjun was going to abandon Changle Mansion and run south, and the grief and anger here were like a knife scraping bones, which made him feel painful, how could he sit back and watch Wang Yanjun leave?
"Your Majesty wants to let the minister die, so what does it matter if the minister is killed? However, Fujian is a great country, Your Majesty abandons it like a shoe, today you will leave, once you leave Changle, how to face the first emperor under Jiuquan in the future? ! "Lao Shangshu swore not to let go of the reins.
Wang Yanjun was anxious and angry, and shouted without words: "The Tang army is coming, you are helpless, you will only cry relatively much, the corpse is vegetarian, it is useless for the country and the people, except to enjoy my gifts, what will you do!" It is because there are too many people like you that Da Min can't stop the Tang army from attacking! Today, I want to go south to Quanzhou, slow down the plan, and you don't allow it, do this, isn't it a reputation for fame? ”
After a few words, he stayed there what Lao Shangshu said, and he couldn't spit out a word, and he wanted to vomit blood.
Wang Yanjun said again: "Don't you want to keep Changle?" Good! I will hand over the military administration of Changle to you, and you will lead the army and people of Changle to resist the Tang army! Didn't you always rely on your old qualifications and follow the emperors, but you boasted that you were worried about the country and the people, and dared to die for the country? Today, I want to ask you, do you dare to guard Changle to resist the Tang army and live and die with Changle?! ”
The words were so loud that the people on the left and right were stunned.
Lao Shangshu's face turned pale, as if the remaining life span was instantly taken away.
The next moment, Lao Shangshu bowed to the horse, clasped his head on the ground, and cried bitterly: "Minister, I am willing to guard Changle for Damin, and live and die with Changle." ”
This shocked Wang Yanjun, he was stunned and lost his mind for a while.
"Really?" Wang Yanjun asked suspiciously.
"If the city is broken, the minister is willing to die for the country." Lao Shangshu fell to the ground.
Wang Yanjun's heart was turbulent, and he was speechless for a while.
He has always looked at this old Shangshu unpleasantly.
The other party relied on the fact that he was an old minister of the king's judgment, and he had always spoken out to him and offended his heavenly might. In Wang Yanjun's view, this old man is useless except for being old and not dying, and he will not act according to people's eyes, let alone know that the monarch is greater than everything else, and catering to the monarch's will is far more important than the country's society.
――I am the emperor of Damin, the heaven of Damin, you don't know how to serve me well, make me happy, and are embarrassed to keep saying that you are for the sake of Damin? Even if it is for the sake of the society, you should know that I am greater than the country!
For this reason, Lao Shangshu, who was supposed to be the prime minister, was only worthy of a secretary when he was called the emperor and the queen was rewarded, and recently Wang Yanjun also planned to remove him from the position of Shangshu.
But he never thought that at this time, when the country was in danger, Lao Shangshu was willing to guard Changle for him, resist the Tang army with the power of pulling mountains and reclamation, and live and die with Changle.
-- Wang Yanjun is not worried that Lao Shangshu will tell lies, because he can take Lao Shangshu's family with him and take him hostage.
"Your Majesty, the Tang army is strong, and it is about to come to the city, since Shangshu is willing to defend the city, Your Majesty should go to Quanzhou quickly, and it is better to recruit warriors as soon as possible to plan again." Beside Wang Yanjun, a courtier who had always been trusted by him, saw that he was stunned and didn't move, so he hurriedly said out loud.
Wang Yanjun looked back at this confidant, his eyes were a little complicated.
The henchman hurriedly said: "The body of a daughter does not sit in the hall, the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, Your Majesty has no reason to risk his life, it is better to leave quickly." The matter of fighting with the Tang army can be handed over to the army and the people, otherwise, what is the use of Your Majesty raising them? ”
When Wang Yanjun said this, he nodded, and after giving the order of Lao Shangshu to guard the city and wait for the follow-up matters to be dealt with, he hurriedly left with the armor.
Wang Yanjun led a large number of armor soldiers to evacuate, and there was chaos inside and outside Changle, and the soldiers and civilians were shocked and discolored. The people packed up their belongings and were about to leave the city, but they were stopped by the defenders, and the gates were closed, and they were crowded in the streets, even if they were in a hurry, panic, and weeping, it was useless.
"Your Majesty is gone, how can Changle still guard, do you only know that there are military orders, but you don't know whether your own family is alive or dead? The king who abandoned Kyoto and left the army and the people, why did you still die for him? Let's open the city gates, and you and I will run for our lives together! "Before the gates, there were bold men who cried out to the defenders.
It was only a half-day fierce battle, and the Fujian army sailors in front of Mawei were either killed or surrendered. After the war stopped, the Tang Army's naval division took over the water village, and at the same time arrived in Changle, and the horse infantry transported by the naval division's ships landed ashore in waves. Then it surrounded Changle City on all sides, and set up camp.
That day and night, the sound of crying came out in Changle City, which was clearly heard in the Tang army camp.
The next day, the Tang army carried the baggage, and catapults, artillery, and crossbows were neatly arranged outside the city. Nest cars, box cars, ladder cars, or fully assembled -- over the years, the Martial Arts Academy has not forgotten to continuously improve the ordnance, or to step up construction, and constantly arrange them outside the camp.
There are tens of thousands of guards in the elite armor of the army, stepping on the ground and shaking the mountains to set up a formation outside the camp, the small array is connected into a large array, and the large array is connected into an ironclad ocean, the flag is like a forest, and the spears are cold. The fine rider ran around, bringing up the smoke and dust, and from time to time to show off his might in front of the city.
Not only the people in the city, but even the soldiers defending the city now have the intention of crying.
At night, the old Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials stopped at the head of the city and did not go.
"Shang Shu has been in the city all day, and the grain of rice has not been eaten, so it is better to go down and rest for a day or two and have some food." There are officials who are good friends with Lao Shangshu and come to the city to persuade them.
Lao Shangshu's face was sad, he shook his head, and did not move.
The official sighed, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Lao Shangshu is the minister of the first emperor's humerus, and he has always had a reputation in Changle. ”
Lao Shangshu glanced at the official, his eyes sad, "Why is Gong Chen so relieved by Yu? Changle can't hold it, you and I know it. The prosperity of the Tang Army is really the only one seen in his life, with thousands of ships, 100,000 soldiers, and complete equipment. ”
sighed endlessly, Lao Shangshu said with tears: "How can the Tang army get most of the country, a certain today finally knows, such a strong army, Changle indulges, and there is nothing to say." ”
The official's tone was complicated, "If that's the case, why did Shangshu agree to defend the city?" ”
"Promise to defend the city, not to defend the city." Shang Shu Lao burst into tears and looked up at the night sky, "But I want a dead ear!" ”
The official was stunned, and then Shi Ran was relieved, although he couldn't fully understand the sorrow of Lao Shangshu, he could also empathize with one or two.
"Since Changle can't hold it, why don't you surrender the Tang Army?" At this time, several generals and colonels came over with dozens of people, and the first one said loudly, he stood next to Lao Shangshu, "In this way, the army and civilians can also be saved from destruction." ”
"I was ordered to defend the city, how can I surrender?" Lao Shangshu turned his head and said coldly, when he saw the general in front of him clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned, there was a famous sailor general in the middle, he happened to recognize that yesterday's fierce battle in Mawei, this sailor had been captured, how could he appear here at this time?
After thinking about it, Lao Shangshu understood that he must have surrendered the Tang Army, and he also became a lobbyist for the Tang Army - the city is so big, it is really common to hang a basket and pull a few people to the city. Now that the main generals of the Changle garrison have arrived, Lao Shangshu knows that these people are afraid of the might of the Tang Dynasty and have been moved.
"If you want to surrender to the Tang Army, how can you stop a certain old body? It's just that there is an emperor's order in his body, and if the city is broken, people will die, and the monarchs will surrender to the Tang army, and take off a certain head first. "Lao Shangshu is already looking at death as home.
"We don't mean to embarrass Shangshu, this time I came here to open the door to welcome the Tang army into the city, headed by Shangshu." The leader said.
"I'd rather die than surrender." Lao Shangshu stiffened his neck, "I am willing to die, I don't want to lose the first emperor!" ”
"Shangshu's words are wrong." At this time, there was a person who walked out of the school, but he was often dressed up and had a very raw face.
Lao Shangshu looked at this person and said in surprise: "Since the Tang army has already sent an envoy into the city?" ”
Kuai Ao said with a smile: "Wang Yanjun has no way to govern, and he has been happy and bitter for a long time, now that my Wang Shi is here, can the soldiers and civilians of Changle not eat pot pulp to welcome?" ”
Lao Shang Shubei came from it, "In this way, tomorrow at dawn, Changle Iron will definitely belong to the Tang Army!" If so, why do you bother to force me, a useless man, to surrender? ”
"It's not forced, it's pleased." Kuai Ao said seriously, "At the same time, it is a royal order!" ”
Lao Shangshu was puzzled.
Kuai Ao flicked his sleeves, suddenly became arrogant, and continued: "The world is big, all of them are my Tang soil, the shore of the land, and all of them are my Tang Chen, how can Shangshu not know?" Wang Yanjun's arrogance of the emperor is a move against the sky, which not only makes the people of Fujian boiling, but also causes His Majesty to be furious. Rong Zai dared to ask: A good man, why should he be a thief? ”
"In the past, the king of Fujian was supported by the public, and he had meritorious service in stabilizing Fujian, and his reputation was heavier than that of the southeast. However, King Min died early, Wang Yanjun killed his brother and usurped the throne, he was originally a thief, arrogant and arrogant and called the emperor, and he was not tolerated by the court. The ministers of the Gongben court, on the occasion of the king's southward advance, shouldn't they lead the soldiers and civilians of Fujian to greet the king's division and help the king's division punish the rebels? ”
"If the public obeys the edict and obeys the will of the people, then the imperial court will set up a province in Fujian in the future, and the public will still be the minister of the society, and he can continue to seek benefits for the people of Fujian, and will be praised by future generations; On the contrary, if the public is a thief, then the reputation of the first generation will be ruined, and it will not be tolerated by the court today, and there will be no face to see the king of Fujian in the future. ”
Lao Shangshu was stunned and forgot his words.
Lao Shangshu, surnamed Wang Mingdan, is the son of former Prime Minister Wang Pu.
In the autumn and September of the first year of Dingding, Changle moved the city and fell.
――――――

Shilang Wang Pu to Chishui, urging Quanzhong to meet with soldiers, Wuwu, Quanzhong from Chishui to Chang'an... Wang Pu is the same as the Ping Zhang. ”
