Volume 9 Goryeo under the smoke of gunfire Chapter 15 That kid is in Goryeo
Riding on the yellow dust, he galloped towards Chang'an non-stop from the distant border pass, and the bright red feathers were inserted on the helmet, like a touch of poison on the top of the crane. The horse's hooves crushed the snow, stepped through the green frost, and rode the dust. The knight on horseback gasped, but shouted hoarsely, letting people know what he was taught. Although he is just a small soldier at the border, after the heavy battle report is pressed on him, even the royal family and nobles must make way for him, because he represents the empire at this time.
In the snowy season, the towering city walls of Chang'an City are also occupied by the white elves between the heaven and the earth, and the solemn and solemn city gate of the Vermilion Bird Gate is like the mouth of a giant beast that swallows the sky, engulfing the yellow dust of the ride. Finally arrived at the destination, the knight's eyes on horseback were bloodshot, but he was still very excited, because he was about to see the great saint, the great monarch of the Tang Dynasty, so although he was already in a mess, stained by countless mud, and wind and frost, but he was still in the already heavy hands, tidied up his clothes, helped the helmet with red feathers on his head, and the armor on his body was also carefully arranged with ropes, and then he turned over from the horse. There have been chamberlains who have gone to report before, and I believe that news will come soon.
"Red Feather Urgent...... Eight hundred miles expedited! The shouts began from the Suzaku Gate to the depths of the imperial city, and although most of the voices were sharp, they were still shouted in a dignified and neutral manner, and it was hard to believe that this was from the mouth of a group of inmates who were unspeakably disabled.
"Listen, eight hundred miles in an emergency. Where did this come from? Li Er's face suddenly became even more gloomy, just now he was talking about the heavy snow and bitter cold, and Gao Li was afraid that he would be detained. Now there is an eight-hundred-mile urgent Hongling urgent report, is it really Goryeo who is causing trouble at the border pass? That's why Li Er is so gloomy, and it is really a group of young people, who always run out to rob while the fire is burning at such a time, and they really deserve to be killed: "Everyone, it seems that someone can't help it and dares to offend my Tang Tianwei." What do you think you should do? ”
"Your Majesty, the veteran will ask for battle, and he will kill the enemy for the country!" Qin Qiong loudly invited to fight. Although he was almost unsteady on his feet now. But as a peerless warrior who has experienced a hundred battles on the battlefield, he is absolutely not inferior in morale, because the blood in his heart is still there, and he is still alive! So when I heard Li Er's words. He seemed to have seen the handsome young man he had been. At the beginning, he took his brother Cheng Zhijie to Tang in the middle of the night, and the Tiance general who shone with unparalleled confidence in the firelight of the camp.
"Second brother, how dare you bother the second brother with these little things...... Little brother took care of them for you! Cheng Yanjin stood up from the pile of generals, wearing a black armor, a full beard, and a pair of angry eyes, like Zhang Fei reincarnated, and his big voice did not change at all. The earthquake made the entire Lizheng Hall buzz. Although the armor on his body is not the heavy armor worn on the battlefield, the ceremonial armor also has enough weight. This guy slapped his fists on his chest loudly, and swore to Qin Qiong.
"You guy, with your three-plate axe, you will definitely not work. Or is it me Wei Chi Gong who is the most suitable person, haha...... The group of cubs of the right guard haven't seen blood for a long time! "Wei Chi Gong also jumped out, as long as there is a big war, as long as there is a battle, this group of generals is more active than anyone else, these years Datang has been recuperating, although there are also some sporadic wars against the surrounding small countries, but it is not worth their shot, only the time when the Turks use troops can be regarded as a big move. Therefore, this group of generals has long been idle, and the group of rotten Confucians above the court are talking about the enlightenment of the saints, what is hurting the heavens and the peace, and the wind direction in the court actually has the slightest sign of the horse putting Nanshan, which is not a good thing, because then their group of generals who have their heads pinned to their belts on the battlefield will have no source of military merit, which is simply cutting off the life of their generals.
Therefore, the relationship between the court's ministers and the generals is becoming more and more tense, Li Er has been skillfully controlling the balance, sometimes supporting the Wenchen to reduce some armaments, sometimes standing in the position of the generals, sending troops to attack the small alien races around, the emperor's art Li Er can be said to have reached the point of reaching the peak, and the Manchu Dynasty Wenwuquan staged a scene of the opera he hoped between his palms, and between the mutual attacks, the Tang Dynasty became a little stronger. This is the means of an emperor with thousands of ravines in his chest, and he can control everything without a trace.
"Okay, you gang of killers, just thinking about fighting, do you know how much national money it will cost to fight a war? How many boys' lives do you need to build the peerless name of you guys? "The eldest grandson Wuji stood up at this time, and now he is the leader of Wenchen, although he was also rolling in the pile of dead people on the battlefield in the past, but he immediately won the world, and An can be ruled immediately? Therefore, scholars are the cornerstone of governing the country, only when the country is strong and prosperous, people will be respected, and the soldiers who surrender without a fight are the king of the soldiers. Driven by this kind of thinking, after Li Er ascended the throne, the eldest grandson Wuji completely handed over the military power in his hands, and studied at home with peace of mind, and ran the world, which was much more interesting than conquering the world, at least for a Confucian general like him who did not have much strong martial arts.
"Hmph...... The eldest grandson, can An say such words? Didn't you laugh out loud in the dead man's heap at the beginning, and now what kind of scum are you pretending to be? How many brothers are left of the brothers who fought with you at that time? As a war, where are the undead? Wei Chigong stood up and refuted Changsun Wuji.
"Okay, what kind of system is it to be so noisy above the court?" Li Er saw that there was a trend of getting more and more intense, and immediately interrupted the scolding battle: "The specific news has not yet been determined, so you are in such a hurry, how to govern this Tang Dynasty?" "Li Er each played fifty boards, impartial, the eldest grandson Wuji is his brother-in-law, and Wei Chigong is not an outsider, if this guy hadn't carried him out of the pile of dead people, this Tang Jiangshan still doesn't know who is sitting on it.
"Messenger of the Messenger of Surprise!" Li Er said in a deep voice.
"Announce, the messenger is here!" The attendants around him immediately sang loudly, and the loud voice came out from afar, and the relay shouts came out outside the hall and gradually disappeared. It is a chamberlain passing to each other, so that the information can be transmitted as quickly as possible, just like when the border is in danger, there will be beacon fire and wolf smoke, although Li Er has been calm, but there is not much anxiety in his heart, after all, the wolf smoke on the beacon tower in the distance has not risen, this is obviously not how urgent, at least there is no irresistible situation on the border pass, otherwise it will not be a messenger to send a letter, but wolf smoke is billowing out.
"The little one has seen the saint, long live the saint!" The soldier who delivered the letter entered the main hall at a rapid pace and knelt down on one knee in the center of the main hall.
"Come, give me a seat!" Li Er didn't ask what the news was first, as an emperor who aspires to become a wise monarch through the ages, Li Er cares about his image very much, isn't this the best situation to brush up his reputation? Presumably, the historian will record like this: In the winter of the sixth year of Zhenguan, the border pass was urgent, and the emperor saw the envoy and the palace to give a seat to talk. Of course, this is also the best time to buy people's hearts, because as soon as Li Er's words came out, the soldier kneeling on the ground suddenly felt an endless warm current surrounding him, and all the previous pain and cold pain were completely gone.
"Emperor Xie ......" The trembling soldier took out the bamboo tube that was tightly held in his arms along the way, this bamboo tube with body temperature was transmitted back from distant Goryeo, and the fine work that Datang infiltrated there spent countless thoughts to report this war report, and General Zhang Daliang, who was stationed on the border defense near Goryeo in Hebei Province, laughed for half a cup of tea after seeing this letter, and then immediately ordered someone to send this letter back to Chang'an from the border pass in an eight-hundred-mile urgent way. Until now, no third person has seen the letter.
"Bring it on!" Li Er saw the simple bamboo tube, which was sealed with vermilion fire paint, and hurriedly ordered someone to pass it up.
The chamberlain stepped forward, took a bamboo tube from the soldier's hand, and then walked back to Li Er quickly, and after standing still, he opened the seal, and then took out a yellow crumpled piece of paper.
Li Er took it, then unfolded it, and after reading it, he only saw a strange stir on his brows, as if something was beyond his expectations. Of course, none of the courtiers in the court knew why he was like this, just because on this letter, there was only one message: the Goryeo people were miserable, it seems that it was because of the Silla people, and it was suspected that they had an inseparable relationship with the vanished King of Chu, because in this harsh winter, the Silla people invaded Goryeo in a big way, and under the leadership of a big black general who spoke Chinese, they broke through several cities of Goryeo. Therefore, it is rare that Goryeo did not attack the Datang border pass this winter. Zhang Daliang, who had already been ready for battle, was very depressed, and according to the news transmitted back from the battlefield of Goryeo, the big black general was very much like Xue Wanche, who had been following Li Kuan, the king of Chu. But it's not very sure, because the attitude of the Silla people towards this general is very confusing, and this general's honor guard far exceeds that of Kim Yuxin, the first general of the Silla Kingdom.
So the question is, is this general Xue Wanche? If it was Xue Wanche, why did the Silla people respect him so much, and where was Li Kuan, the king of Chu? In this letter, there is also news that the two countries of Goryeo and Silla have a strange scene of winter thunder in this cold winter, and the very famous young general of Goryeo, Yen Gai Su-moon, has disappeared. These things are foggy, and it's hard to find answers.
"It turns out that kid is in Goryeo!" Li Er said softly, he was sure that the big black general was Xue Wanche, because he had an indescribable feeling that this qiē was all made up by his restless second son. (To be continued......)
