Chapter 066: King of Xiping County
The herald shouted: "All the defeated soldiers, immediately form a team and go to Wufengling!" If there is neglect, it will not be spared! ”
Originally, the rout soldiers were staggering, but when they saw the bloody human head on the flagpole, where did they dare to make noise, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, they suddenly came to their senses and quickly lined up in two columns. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Cui Shuquan was weak on the soles of his feet, sat on the ground, struggled twice, and couldn't stand up, Bu Yunfei hurriedly took a hand, Cui Shuquan helped Bu Yunfei to staggered up, and stood in the queue according to Bu Yunfei, still swinging to himself.
Cui Shuquan can be regarded as understanding, this group of wolf-like sword and axe hands, only recognize Lingqi and do not recognize people, and do not ask about the grade at all, you are the king of heaven, and if you fall into their hands, it will be cut in two!
The defeated soldiers cheered up, followed the herald, walked over the high pole with the head, and walked westward, out of Tongjin County.
On the road, the camps are connected, the flags are unfurled, and there is no edge to be seen, and on the road, countless soldiers are in a hurry, but the queue is neat, the swords and guns are bright, and they ignore this group of routs.
Chao Yongzhi walked behind Bu Yunfei, and said in a low voice: "Gao Xianzhi is newly defeated, but he can restrain the deployment, the military law is strict, and in Tongjin City, he is in good order, and he is indeed a general!" ”
But the young master's habits did not change, and when he went out of the city, he couldn't see Li Zhendong's bloody head, so he immediately forgot his form, and shouted with a big thorn: "Bullshit, a herald, dare to kill people casually......"
Bu Yunfei covered Cui Shuquan's mouth.
But it was too late, and I saw the herald come over on horseback and scold: "Who is making a noise?" ”
Cui Shuquan reacted at this time, and was so frightened that he shook his head into a sieve, and shook his head hurriedly: "It's not me ......"
"It's not you, what do you say!" The herald sneered and raised the command flag.
The knife and axe hands on both sides rushed up, dragged it horizontally and vertically, and dragged Cui Shuquan out of the ranks.
Bu Yunfei saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly said: "Generals, my young master did not mean to make noise, but to argue with the villain. The villain thought that the marshal of Tongguan was General Gao Xianzhi, and the young master of my family saw that the generals were dignified and neat, and the military appearance was neat, and he decided that the marshal of Tongguan was not Gao Xianzhi, but the king of Xiping County! My young master said, only the king of Xiping County has a good way to govern the army, Tongguan has such a majestic atmosphere, my young master saw the small unbelievable, impatient for a while, reprimanded a few words, do not want to collide with the handsome tiger, not intentionally noisy, but also please be aware of the generals! ”
The herald glanced at Bu Yunfei, turned to Cui Shuquan, and shouted, "Is that really the case? ”
Cui Shuquan was already so frightened that he couldn't speak, and when he heard Bu Yunfei say this, he didn't know how to answer.
The former commander of the Tianwu Army is Feng Changqing, and the later commander is Gao Xianzhi, it is Gao Xianzhi who led the whole army to retreat from Shaanxi County, at this time the commander of Tongguan should be Gao Xianzhi, but Bu Yunfei said that the current commander of Tongguan is the king of Xiping County!
The king of Xiping County is Ge Shuhan, who is also the envoy of Longyou and Hexi Jiedu!
Ge Shuhan is a famous general of Longyou, and he was originally Wang Zhonghe's deputy. After Wang Zhongsi was framed and dismissed by Li Linfu, Ge Shuhan succeeded Wang Zhongsi as the envoy of the Longyou Festival. After Ge Shuhan took office, he changed Wang Zhonghe's defensive strategy against Tibet, and instead attacked Shibao City, and after paying a heavy price, captured Shibao. Although the battle of Shibao made the Tang army pay a heavy price, the Tang Dynasty took this opportunity to advance step by step, and all the Jiuqu tribes were recovered, and the springboard for Tubo's eastward advance was dismantled, and the Tang army occupied an absolute advantage on the battlefields of Hexi and Longyou. In the thirteenth year of Tianbao, the dividing line between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo has advanced to the west of Qinghai Lake to the Yellow River. Goshuhan became famous because of this! And was named the king of Xiping County by the current emperor.
As a military general, he was crowned the king, and during the Tianbao period, only Ge Shuhan was alone!
Ge Shuhan is extremely brave and powerful, and he is the number one warrior of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions! The soldiers and horses of Longyou under his command have been trained by two generations of famous generals Wang Zhongsi and Ge Shuhan, and they are even more powerful. Ge Shuhan and An Lushan have always been on good terms, and the two are on the same page! Therefore, using Ge Shuhan to fight against An Lushan should be the best choice for the imperial court.
However, not long ago, Ge Shuhan suffered a stroke, half of his body was paralyzed, and he has become a cripple. The imperial court was helpless, so it sent Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi to lead the troops to battle.
Now, Bu Yunfei said that the coach of Tongguan was Ge Shuhan, not Gao Xianzhi, where did Cui Shuquan dare to believe it, seeing that the ghost-headed big knives of those knife and axe hands were on the back of his neck, and if he didn't agree with him, he would be in a different place, so he had to open his mouth and not know how to respond.
In fact, the current coach of Tongguan is Ge Shuhan!
Gao Xianzhi lost Shaanxi County, Tang Ming Emperor Li Longji was furious, and forced Ge Shuhan, who was recuperating in Chang'an, to leave immediately, replace Gao Xianzhi, and serve as the coach of Tongguan.
It's just that Ge Shuhan has only been in office for a day, not to mention that these routs who have just entered Tongguan are most of the generals in Tongguan, and they don't know that Ge Shuhan has arrived.
Bu Yunfei was familiar with Tang history and knew that after the Tang army was defeated in Shaanxi County, Ge Shuhan would replace Gao Xianzhi. Even so, he didn't expect Ge Shuhan to come so quickly.
However, judging from the fact that the herald soldier killed Li Zhendong, Bu Yunfei expected that Ge Shuhan had already arrived.
Although Ge Shuhan is ill and disabled, his style of governing the army has always been "strict and compassionate", a herald with a command flag in his hand, he can kill the generals at will, and only Ge Shuhan can do it in the Tang Dynasty armies!
Chao Yongzhi also reacted, and hurriedly said: "Yes, the commander of Tongguan must be the king of Xiping County, the young master is right, how can Gao Xianzhi have such courage!" ”
Chao Yongzhi also worked as an errand under Wang Zhonghe, dealt with Ge Shuhan, and knew Ge Shuhan's temperament.
Sure enough, the herald sneered: "I have some eyes!" Now that I see that we are waiting for the order of the king of Xiping County, how can I say the word 'bullshit'! ”
Bu Yunfei hurriedly took out a hundred taels of silver from his pocket and stuffed it into the herald's hand: "This general has heard a mistake, my young master said the word 'bullshit', but he reprimanded the little one who has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai!" It's not against the king of Xipingjun! To tell the truth, my young master is the son of Boling Mansion in Qinrenfang, when he was in Chang'an, he admired the demeanor of the king of Xiping County very much, and now he admires the generals under the king of Xiping County. How can you add evil words? This is a big misunderstanding! ”
Cui Shuquan believed that these herald swords and axes were indeed Ge Shuhan's personal soldiers, and hurriedly said: "Cui is really reprimanding the generals, not insulting the generals." ”
The herald took the silver and said, "Well, since it is the son of Cui Gongzi of Boling Mansion in Qinrenfang, this matter will be over!" However, the king of my family is iron-faced and selfless, in the future, if you violate the military law again, you will be a relative of the emperor, and you will not be able to escape a knife! ”
"That's, that's!" Cui Shuquan nodded busily. He knew that the herald said this, it was not a threat, that brother Shuhan had the title of the king of Xiping County, in the army, not to mention the people of Boling Cui Mansion, even the son of Yang Guozhong, he also dared to kill!
The herald waved his hand, and the knife and axe hand let go of Cui Shuquan.
Cui Shuquan picked up a life, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, his steps were tired, and he hurriedly returned to the ranks, but he didn't dare to speak, so he had to arch his hand to Bu Yunfei, which was regarded as a thank you.
Bu Yunfei turned a blind eye to Cui Shuquan, and glanced at Chao Yongzhi and Baye Gu, the two of them understood, and walked a few steps with Bu Yunfei, deliberately distancing themselves from Cui Shuquan.
That Cui Shuquan is a gentleman, and he has more than enough success and more than failure. Outside Tongguan, the three of them borrowed Cui Shuquan's hand and infiltrated Tongguan, and now they have saved his life, which can be regarded as a fold. If you want to mix with this kind of person again, I'm afraid you'll get into trouble!
Cui Shuquan saw that Bu Yunfei and the three of them were walking away, but he didn't dare to shout, so he had to mix in the rout and walk slowly.
The team continued to move forward, and after a while, they came to the foot of Wufeng Ridge.
The so-called Wufengling is just a loess slope under Tongguan, with a flagpole erected on the slope, which is a straggler shelter. The stragglers who had retreated from the defeat of Shaanxi County were all gathered here and reorganized into various battalions to serve their orders.
The clearing under the ridge was already crowded with all kinds of defeated soldiers, more than 5,000 people, and the herald handed over Bu Yunfei, a routed soldier, to a general who was responsible for containing the stragglers, and left with the swords and axes.
The general's surname is Xia, the outer half of the armor is draped, but the inner lining is the civilian official uniform, he is the long history of the Xiping County Palace, the soldiers and generals call him Xia Changshi, the long history was originally just a staff position, the work on weekdays, that is, to write and draw for the chief, and do not lead the troops to fight, so the long history of the official position, mostly literati. Feng Changqing has done a long history of Gao Xianzhi.
In extraordinary times, the commander will also send his staff to lead the troops to fight, after all, personal staff are always more reassuring than those generals.
Ge Shuhan was originally recuperating in Chang'an, but this time, because of the urgency of the emperor's order, he had to go to Tongguan as the coach. Ge Shuhan is the envoy of Longyou and Hexi Jiedu, and the soldiers and horses of his cronies are the Longyou Army, including part of the Hexi Army, and the soldiers and horses gathered in Tongguan are mainly the Tianwu Army, as well as the Anxi Army brought by Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing from Anxi. Ge Shuhan lacked trustworthy generals around him, so he sent his staff, including this Xia Changshi, to the front line.
There were many people in the open space, and Xia Changshi couldn't control it, so he just ordered Bu Yunfei to break the army, and first went to a dirt platform to sit down and wait for the order.
The soldiers in charge of guarding at the foot of Wufeng Ridge were not Ge Shuhan's personal guards, and the control was not too strict, and all the defeated soldiers were relieved, falling backwards, sitting on the ground panting, and gossiping, but they didn't dare to speak loudly.
Bu Yunfei took Baye Gu and Chao Yongzhi, and followed everyone to a big locust tree, the three of them sat down, and Chao Yongzhi asked, "Big brother, how did you know that Ge Shuhan was here just now?" ”
