Chapter 9 Two Li Wang Zheng
readx;
In the thirteenth year of the great cause, the world was in chaos. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The Sui room has shown a declining trend, although it can still be barely supported, but it is said that the West Mountain is thin, showing a state of twilight.
Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty suffered three failed expeditions to Goguryeo, but he no longer had the same vigor as when he ascended the throne. Becoming indulgent in wine rather than facing reality.
This may be the sorrow of an idealist!
When he found out that all his previous efforts were not enough, he shrank his head and cocked his buttocks, making an ostrich shape. Even if the courtiers stated the form to him, they asked Yang Guang to return to Chang'an immediately to supervise the world. But Yang Guang has been trapped by the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River and does not want to return to the Central Plains. Even when the courtiers reported to him the chaos in various places, he would be furious and refused to admit it.
Empress Xiao knows Yang Guang's mind best, and she also knows that at this time, he no longer has the ambition he had when he won the throne.
Since it has sunk, the surname Suo will sink to the end......
Empress Xiao secretly said to the entourage: "From now on, don't report such things to Your Majesty again." ”
Yang Guang hoped to die in Jiangdu so happily. He also seemed to have a premonition of the danger that the building was about to collapse, but he smiled and said to Empress Xiao: "Who can take a good head?" ”
As he spoke, he patted his neck.
Empress Xiao could only shake her head and sigh, and at the same time secretly arranged for the Xiao clan to make a decision as soon as possible.
******
The great victory of Heishi Pass came about in such a situation.
Compared with the wars in other places, the scale of the battle at Blackstone Pass may not be large, but the impact is extremely far-reaching. After Li Mi was defeated and retreated to Yangcheng, he gathered the remnants of the defeated army. In the battle of Jiashizi River, Li Mi's losses were particularly heavy. The Eight Winds Battalion, which had just been reorganized, was defeated again, and the Lianshan Battalion lost its troops and broke the four Cheng Ren horses; On the way to help Li Mi, the Huozi Battalion and the Jumu Battalion were ambushed by Luo Shixinxiong Kuohai and Kan Leng, which also ended in a fiasco. The Huozi Battalion was better, Cheng Biting Jin was very smart, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately withdrew. However, the Jumu Battalion did not have such good luck, Liu Heimin was captured, and the Jumu Battalion was wiped out.
In this battle, Li Mi folded a total of several generals such as Fang Xianbo and Liu Heimin.
The generals of each battalion also suffered countless casualties, including Shan Xiongxin's three sons, which can be described as a great injury.
Wang Shichong's situation is not better than Li Mi.
The army of 40,000 lost more than half. The eldest brother Wang Shiheng, the third brother Wang Shiyun, and the nephew Wang Daocheng were killed, and Wang Ren was seriously injured. As for the generals of the various departments, there are countless casualties, which is difficult to calculate.
So much so that after Wang Shichong returned to Yanshi, he immediately asked to be imprisoned and put himself in the Yanshi prison.
At the same time, he ordered his eldest son Wang Xuanying and second son Wang Xuanshu to run in Luoyang, secretly prepared a lot of money, and bribed Yuan Wendu and the Queen Mother Liu Liangdi.
It was also the Queen Mother Liu Liangdi who did her best to protect her, and although Lu Chu played to deal with Wang Shichong, she failed in the end.
Yang Tong, the king of Yue, was originally a magnanimous and gentle person with a surname.
Although he heard the news of Wang Shichong's defeat at first glance, he was extremely angry in his heart. But first, Li Yanqing reported the victory of Heishi Pass, and then Wang Shichong asked for imprisonment (which is considered a correct attitude), plus the guarantee of the Queen Mother Liu Liangdi, and the words of Yuan Wendu Duan Da and others.
In the end, Yang Tong, the king of Yue, did not dispose of Wang Shichong, but instead transferred 20,000 horses from Luoyang to Yanshi.
Yang Tong clearly stated in the edict: Although Li Wei was defeated, his strength still existed.
You, Wang Shichong, give this king a good guard of the Yanshi, cooperate with Li Yanqing to eliminate Li Yi as soon as possible, and return me to Da Sui. However, you don't have to think about the post of Henan's ambassador again. When will you be able to give this king a big victory once, then I was thinking about promotion.
In other words, Yang Tong was originally swaying left and right between Wang Shichong and Li Yanqing, and from now on, he will support Li Yanqing!
It's something that can't be helped.
Yang Tong originally had a good impression of Li Yanqing, but because of his young age, he couldn't get the support of the court.
Now it's simpler...... Wang Shichong lost, Li Yanqing won! The pros and cons are clear at a glance. In addition, Yanqing has been guarding Xingyang for a year. In the past year, Xingyang County has generally been relatively well, although it has lost a few county seats, but the main towns and passes, as well as Luokoucang, are still firmly in the hands of the Sui family. Coupled with the big victory over Li Mi, how could Yang Tong arrange Wang Shichong again?
Wang Shichong was in the Yanshi prison, prostrating himself to receive the order.
Compared with Wang Shichong and Li Mi, the biggest beneficiary of the victory at Heishiguan is Li Yanqing.
First of all, he ensured the advantage of the post of ambassador in Henan, and secondly, he collected the remnants of Wang Shichong and Li Mi, and the number of troops under his command surged to 8,000 at once. Among them, many of the captives were soldiers who had survived a hundred battles and fought on the battlefield.
Whether it is the Wagang army or the Sui army, these forces are undoubtedly a huge supplement for Yanqing.
It's just that with such a huge number of troops, Li Yanqing will not announce it to the public until he obtains the position of ambassador for Henan's arrest. He arranged the captives on a barren ridge between Heishiguan and Gongxian, and distributed supplies as he said. At the same time, Su Yong and Wang Fubao were ordered to jointly guard the prisoners of war.
Then, Li Yanqing disbanded the township Yong recruited by Gong County.
However, he also ordered that every month in the future, all villages and villagers must gather once for a seven-day training.
The war is not over yet, and the real test has just begun.
Li Yanqing didn't dare to slack off, and even this requirement became stricter......
On the sixth day after the victory at Heishi Pass, Xu Shiji didn't seem to want to lose to Li Yanqing, so he took the initiative to attack and crushed the Wagang army outside the Tiger Pass.
Kill Li Wenxiang, force Hao Xiaode to the north of the Yellow River, and recapture Yuanwu County.
This credit, compared with Li Yanqing, seems to be even more brilliant.
Suddenly, Xu Shiji's fame soared. Almost everyone knows that the little Xingyang County is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. There is not only one Li Wuving, but also Xu Wuving. There are even better people who make up ballads: one is invincible in the east, one is invincible in the west, and Xingyang is healthy.
An invincible one in the east is Xu Shiji, the Tiger Prison Pass; The invincible one in the west refers to Li Yanqing of Heishiguan.
However, when Li Yanqing heard about Xu Shiji's achievements, he couldn't help frowning.
"Lao Xu attacked this time, I'm afraid I'm a little anxious!"
"In a hurry?"
Liang Laoshi, who was following Li Yanqing, couldn't help but ask curiously: "Could it be that Xu Langjun's defeat of Wagang is a bad thing?" ”
No matter how the contradictions between Li Yanqing and Xu Shiji are rumored outside, Liang Laoshi's address to Xu Shiji has not changed.
After all, it is a dignified eagle and a general, and it is an official position of the fifth grade.
Li Yanqing can point at Xu Shiji's nose and scold, but Liang Laoshi cannot.
In his early years, he wandered all over the world, begging for food, working as a coolie, and working as a bandit. What has not been seen, what has not been seen? Therefore, between these words, it is even more cautious. has been with Li Yanqing for more than a year, except for overdoing Zheng Dabiao's affairs, he has never expressed his mind.
It is precisely for this reason that Liang Laoshi has always served as Li Yanqing's personal entourage.
When others, even Zheng Dabiao, were promoted to lieutenant because of their military exploits, Liang Laoshi was still the same as before, leading the stirrups for Li Yanqing.
Sometimes, it's hard to find someone who is close to you......
Yan Qing would occasionally reveal two words in his heart, and when he heard Liang honestly asking, he smiled and said, "Honestly, do you think Xu Langjun's victory is a good thing?" ”
"Anyway, it's all said out there, so I can't tell if it's good or bad."
"Hehe, others say it's good, but it's not necessarily good!"
Yan Qing seemed to be talking to himself: "If Lao Xu can control it and restrain himself, within two months, Wagang will definitely fall apart, and maybe someone will offer Li Mi's head." But this time he beat a little hard, and the generals of Wagang were afraid.
It's not just Wagang who is afraid, but also ant thieves from all walks of life who will also be terrified by Wagang's fiasco.
In this way, they will be more united and huddle together. Although Li Mi experienced this defeat, he was shrouded in the aura of the victory of the three towns and the victory of Piling. Ant thieves from all walks of life are bound to take Li Mi as the leader. I'm afraid that it won't be long before Li Mi will not only be able to recover his vitality, but also increase his strength. ”
Liang's honest face suddenly became ugly.
"Won't you...... Li Mi has been defeated like this, can he still get back? ”
"The world is unpredictable, the so-called Seon lost his horse, how do you know if it is a blessing? How do you know that Li Mi can't get angry? He was defeated with Yang Xuangan back then, and he was panicked like a lost dog. But in just four years, he established himself as the king of Wei. This man is very ambitious, and he has the means and prestige. If he does recover, he will make a comeback...... Hehe, but honestly believe it or not, he can't beat the Black Stone Pass. ”
"That's natural, with Lang Jun here, how dare Li Mi commit a light offense?"
Li Yanqing laughed and said, "It's not because of me. I dare say that Li Mi will definitely come to me for trouble, after all, he lost to me once, and he wants to save face. Only this time, someone will be pestering him. When the time comes, I don't need to make a move, and Wang Huzi will not give up with him. ”
He changed his words and laughed suddenly.
But Lao Xu is understandable to do this.
He already lost to me, my side defeated Li Mi, he gathered 60,000 horses, if he couldn't win a big victory, how could he save face?
Besides, Pei Laohu and Su Dingfang's anxious surnames, plus Lu Zushang and others are fledglings, so do they understand the mystery hidden in the three words 'overall situation'? ”
Liang stuck out his tongue and smiled.
"By the way, do you remember what I just said?"
Liang Laoshi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Lang Jun, I don't remember anything, and I will never tell others." ”
", don't you remember, didn't Lao Tzu waste so many words with you in vain?
Not only do you have to remember, but you also have to try to spread it out and let Lao Xu know. Anyway, I don't care what you use to get this done. ”
Liang Laoshi was dumbfounded.
Everyone knows that there is a grudge between Li Yanqing and Xu Shiji.
If these words are spread, won't they make the two of them together? You must know that Li Yanqing's words just now implied sarcasm, and even scolded the Tiger Prison and the people in Yingyang Mansion. Xu Shiji's side knew that Li Langjun said this about them, and if they didn't add fuel to the fire, the two sides might even have a conflict. When the time comes, won't you have to fall into it?
However, since Li Langjun has ordered so, there must be a reason......
Liang honestly scratched his head and said with a smile: "If this is the case, I will honestly live up to Lang Jun's entrustment." ”
