Chapter Twenty-Eight: Suzaku Sets Sail
Chapter Twenty-Eight: Suzaku Leaves
This Fan Wang successfully joined the army as Yu Liang, and at the same time, Jiangzhou Assassin Shi Wenqiao sent a letter to Tao Kan, asking him to send troops together, so that he would not be immobilized because of what Yu Liang did. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Originally, Tao Kan was angry because the edict of the first emperor did not list him as a minister who took care of his life, and he suspected that Yu Liang did it, but fortunately he was stationed in Jingzhou, with Su Jun in front, otherwise he would have fallen to the point where Su Jun would have rebelled.
Tao Kan and Su Jun were both excluded by Yu Liang because of the garrison, and they didn't want to enter this troubled water again, and at the same time heard that Su Jun had invaded Jiankang, and his son Tao Zhan, who was worried about the unknown life and death, replied to the rejection of the alliance, saying that he was a foreign minister, and it was inconvenient to overstep the rules to manage the court.
Tao Kan had a tough attitude, and Wen Qiao hit a wall again and again, but things took a turn for the better because Tao Zhan arrived at his father Tao Kan by boat.
Tao Zhan agreed to Xie An's appointment, and Tao Kan told his father that Xie An saved him, and at the same time brought a message from Situ Wang Dao, "Please be sure to put aside your previous suspicions and send troops to the king."
Tao Kan saw his son standing in front of him intact, and at the same time heard about Jiankang's armistice, he immediately sighed, "Those who serve the country belong to the Langya Wang family, the king can't guide him, the world is difficult to peace, but his father can't see Yu Liang together, abandon the city and flee, abandon the lord and leave, it is detrimental to the reputation of the scholars." ”
Tao Zhan continued to persuade his father: "Among the soldiers and horses of several parties, my father has the most garrisons, and the position of the leader of the coalition alliance is none other than my father. ”
"And if my father is displeased, now that Yu Liang is alone, isn't it easy to get rid of Yu Liang?"
Tao Kan glanced at him deeply, "Who taught you this?" ”
Tao Zhan smiled: "The previous words are what Xie Jia Saburo said, and the back is the son speculating about his father's thoughts, although his father defended the western frontier for the country, but he has been wronged over the years, and now he goes to King Qin, not only will he be grateful to the lord, but also sell him to Lord Situ to save face, and General Xi Jian in the east has never been in the limelight, and the most benefits this time belong to his father, so what face does Yu Liang have now based in Jiangdong?" ”
Tao Kan smiled faintly, "My father is old, and now my future is earned for you, your eldest brother Hong Yuan is the most powerful, and I never thought that I would die young when I was weak...... Su Jun attacked the city, worried about your safety day and night for his father, fortunately, you can return safely, and the first thing to do when you return to Jiankang is to thank Xie Jia Saburo. ”
"That's nature." Tao Zhan finally relented when he heard his father, and sent a letter to Xunyang for his father that night to inform Wen Qiao that he would lead the troops east with his father on the same day, hoping that you would do a good job in armament matters.
Wen Qiao was overjoyed to receive the letter, it was five days before Su Jun occupied Jiankang and entered Taicheng, and then waited for Tao Kan to gather troops to the east, and it would take half a month at the earliest, and at the same time, Wen Qiao also had to unite with the surrounding cities to gather the righteous army.
At this moment, Jiankang City is peaceful, Su Jun assigned military horses, let some people to surrender to the surrounding states and counties of Jiankang, and at the same time expand the military horses, did not think that the surrounding states and counties all heard the wind and surrendered, only Huan Yi where Jing County refused to surrender, and Su Jun's subordinate Han Huang fought to the death, Huan Yi did not listen to the persuasion of the soldiers and was unwilling to fake surrender, Jiankang City Defense Blockade, Huan Wen and Xie An had no way of knowing about this battle, otherwise the two would take the letter and persuade Huan Yi to endure the anger for a while and then think about it in the long run.
But Huan Yi's toughness is far beyond what his subordinates think, celebrities have their own famous morale, and the battle of this small county has been a protracted battle from the beginning.
……
Jing County is still in the siege of the city, Su Jun's side has moved Sima Yan to Stone City alone, which is like house arrest, and the only person accompanying Sima Yan is Xie An, and Taicheng is still presided over by Su Jun.
After the sting, the spring rain fell, Sima Yan sat in the royal car, looked back at Taicheng through the rain curtain, and repeatedly warned himself to be patient. The ministers saw him off, Xie An rode a horse and fell behind, Su Jun ordered someone to hold an umbrella for him, he didn't accept it, he only said: "I hope General Su will bother my teacher less, he is old, can I let him go back to Wuyi Lane to recuperate?" ”
Su Jun said: "Now that General Ben has just accepted the inner library, it is very busy here and outside, and it is really difficult to have the assistance of Lord Situ from the side. It's Anshi, you used to be a companion to the lord, and now it's good to be a companion. If you want to stay and help the general......"
Xie An said disapprovingly: "An Shi can only read and write, and he can also relieve boredom in his spare time, but it is enough." ”
It is not difficult for Xie An to guess Su Jun's thoughts, first of all, Stone City has been heavily defended by Su Jun, if the allies are diligent, he can withdraw important hostages to Stone City as a bargaining chip at any time, and the allies will not pick Stone City, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as the first place to attack.
Maybe in a few days, Wang Dao and the important ministers of the court will also move to Stone City, and now it will be seen whether Tao Kan and Xi Jian's movements are fast or not.
Wuyi Lane is undoubtedly the safest place in Jiankang City at this time, the militia retreated to the Vermilion Bird Bridge and were not allowed to advance, Xie An left the little dragon girl to Wang Xizhi's care, she rode a horse all day to go to the Vermilion Bird Bridge to slip around, from the end of the snow to the spring breeze, until the spring thunder, but this year's willow embankment no longer sprouts, the tree was burned really badly, making her feel very bad.
Fortunately, she and Xie An still often exchanged letters, the red crow flew over Su Jun's head every day, no one dared to shoot it down, and no one could catch it, and then Su Jun heard from Director Wang that this was a letter between childhood sweethearts, and the generals separated them, and it would be very cruel if this communication was not allowed.
Su Jun saw Wang Xizhi's copy of the newspaper that day and admired her handwriting very much, and later got the wooden board of "three points into the wood", observed it for a long time, and wanted to ask Wang Xizhi to write another word for himself, so he no longer stopped the two from communicating, and also dispelled the idea of marrying Langya Wang.
This development of the family is Su Jun's idea, and marriage is the top priority, in fact, the most suitable candidates for girls in Beijing today are nothing more than a few princesses and Langya Wang and other scholars, the power of the Langya Wang family in the scholar family is intertwined, but listen to Wang Dao's words, although this family is not put on the table, but Wang Xie's marriage is imperative, Su Jun is worried that once this marriage is demolished, he is afraid that he will be hated by Xie An for a lifetime. And that Wang Xizhi has a strange temperament, he has seen Mrs. Nanyue ascend to immortal with his own eyes, with the blessing of immortals, Xuan Xiu's talent is amazing, and he can pass through Penglai Pavilion, even Sima Zong once said, the daughter of destiny, it is best for mortal people to be less involved, if you want to force it, I am afraid that this wedding night is the day when your Su family will be destroyed.
However, there are also school-age girls in the Gu Lu family of the Jiangnan Shi clan, but now the power of the Jiangnan Shi clan is not as good as before.
So after thinking about it, the best choice to change the bloodline of the Su family is to marry the princess, the eldest princess is the biological son of the Empress Dowager Yu, which has the bloodline of the Yu family, which makes Su Jun very displeased, but Sima Xiu and others are very good-looking This family, it is because the eldest princess has the blood of the Yu family and is the daughter of the royal family, which makes it seem noble.
Not to mention that Wang Xizhi was very angry when he heard that Su Jun was picking and choosing girls in Beijing, and the eldest princess wanted to leave the harem and go desperately with Su Jun after hearing about it, if it wasn't for Huan Wen to stop her, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Empress Dowager Yu was frightened and worried for days, and after seeing Su Jun's side, she was even more restless, knowing that Su Jun would not let go of their Yu people, she fell ill and couldn't get up in a few days, especially after learning that Sima Yan was sent to Stone Town, she was even more anxious and vomited blood.
For a while, the spring rain was miserable, and the entire Jiankang City was immersed in gloomy and rainy days, and there was no clear sunshine.
……
……
Now it has been more than half a month since Su Jun entered the main Taicheng, Tao Kan has come to Xunyang with soldiers and horses to join Wen Qiao, but during this time, Tao Kan has repeatedly revealed his killing intent towards Yu Liang, he once secretly said to Wen Qiao, "Su Jun's rebellion, the root cause lies in Yu Liang, if Yu Liang is dead, everything can be solved." ”
Yu Liang knew that the general trend had gone at this time, learned from the pain, personally visited Tao Kan, and led him to the seat, this gift surprised Tao Kan, not to mention that Yu Liang is a famous and famous champion, and then Yu is a high gate in the north, and Tao Kan is a cold man in the south, suddenly received this great gift, and listened to Yu Liang take out Xie An's newspaper to check himself, his words were sincere, and after a conversation, Tao Kan's heart for a long time The anger accumulated for him for a long time disappeared.
These two people tried to communicate with each other, and for a while, the army of the alliance Qin Wang was also initially stabilized, and the total number of military horses of the three parties was 60,000, and Tao Kan alone accounted for 40,000, Yu Liang also specially served Tao Kan as the leader of the alliance, and gave him the runes, which was really the lowest posture.
For a time, the momentum of the Allied army was noisy, and the handsome banner stretched for more than 700 miles, all the way east to take Stone City.
Before leaving, Tao Kan couldn't help but smile at Yu Liang and said: "In these years, the book has made the adults increase the defense of Stone City, just to prevent the old man, but I didn't think that Su Jun couldn't bear it first. It's only to blame that Su Jun for being stupid, looking for a useless ancestral covenant, but forgetting the old man's Jingzhou soldiers and horses. ”
It's also a shame that Su Jun made the wrong move, if he really found Tao Kan, I'm afraid that it will be a different situation now.
However, it will take time to place the military horses, although the speed is fast, it still took nearly a month, and at this time Huan Yi and Han Huang in Jing County have been tugging for nearly a month, and finally Huan Yi Fang Xiaoxian County is short of grain and grass, plus it was sold by Jing County Lingjiang, Jing County was finally captured by Han Huang, and when the city fell, Huan Yi was killed by Han Huang.
At the same time, Xi Jian had sent troops from Guangling to the north, which was considered a warning to the north, so Xi Jian did not dare to send troops to Jiankang easily for a while, and at the same time paid attention to Tao Kan Wenqiao's movements, and learned that they had finally formed an alliance, he also went to believe: "I am willing to obey the arrangement of the alliance leader." ”
At this time, Yu Liang borrowed the edict of the Empress Dowager Yu and promoted Xi Jian to the commonplace.
Xi Jian set up an altar, ascended the altar to torture the white horse, and swore generously to the three armies: "The thief Zuyue and Su Jun disrespect the mandate of heaven, are not afraid of the king's punishment, are fierce and rebellious, interfere with the discipline of the country, and insult the artifact, so they coerce the lord of the ghost, pull out the original Saiyuan, harm the loyal and good, and abuse Li Shu, so that the gods of heaven and earth are relied on." It is to resent the cruelty of the land, cry blood, and are willing to be punished for the crime in order to eliminate the evil. Xi Rong Di Luo Zhou, Qi Huan Entanglement Alliance; Dong Zhuo Linghan, the queen of the group to discuss. Righteousness is preserved, ancient and modern. Now the lord is in danger, the people are hanging upside down, and the loyal ministers and righteous men are determined to serve the country. Where I am allied, after the alliance, I will work hard to save the community. If the two are not evil, there is no stealing. There is this alliance of Chongqing, and the gods are remnant! ”
When Jiankang was not much, he left his son-in-law to assist Su Jun on his behalf, and he returned to Shouchun first, and then asked people to return to Shouchun with 10,000 grains and grass to support. didn't expect that this grain and grass team first encountered a surprise attack by Xi Jian's army, and was attacked by Wen Qiao's army ashore, not only was the grain and grass gone, but also captured and wounded more than 10,000 people by the two armies.
Shouchun was facing a shortage of food, and the soldiers and horses sent were about to become prisoners, and Zu Yue was isolated in Shouchun for a while.
At this time, the great victory was not intended to bring exciting news to the Qinwang rebels in various places.
And Su Jun never expected that the garrisons of various prefectures and counties, who were originally not aligned, would not wait and see the situation, and tacitly raised troops to Jiankang at the same time.
At this time, it was less than three months before he rebelled.
The most terrible thing is that at this time, there was a famine in Jiankang City, just because the grain in the Sanwu area could not be transported, and there were more soldiers and horses in the city for no reason, plus the consumption of the war, it was naturally not enough.
And Director Wang, who has always been pleasant-looking, naturally used the old method, saying that he was sick and no longer saw customers.
Su Jun knew that Director Wang had reserves in business over the years, and he went to Wuyi Lane to visit the mansion several times, but he didn't think that every time he met Wang Xizhi's little girl who stopped outside the mansion with one person and one horse, Su Jun had never seen a high-ranking girl like her, full of nobility and delicateness, but there was no trace of timidity.
Every time Wang Xizhi said: "Long Bo is seriously ill, he can't breathe, and the cloth, money and grain in the home warehouse are handed over to General Su. ”
"The Langya Wang family can't open the pot, I haven't eaten meat for a month, and I'm drooling when I see my family."
"I heard that the lord and Ahri are drinking gruel in Stone Town, but I'm afraid that after a while, everyone will have to drink water to fill their stomachs."
"I heard that the general transported 10,000 pieces of grain and grass from Jiankang to Shouchun, but you have to be careful, don't become the grain and grass of the Qianren, after all, Shouchun's garrison is pitiful."
Su Jun went to find Director Wang every day, but he was abused by the expressionless girl.
In the end, Su Jun couldn't bear to take the soldiers and horses to forcibly break into the house, but he didn't think that before the team reached the Vermilion Bird Bridge, he saw Wang Xi standing in the middle of the bridge, holding a small sword, and a terrible fat big white goose at his feet.
It was still raining that day, she looked at the pitiful drenched, she didn't think that she saw Su Jun from a distance, and immediately pulled out her sword and inserted it into the bridge.
On that day, if people near the Suzaku Bridge said that they saw the Suzaku Divine Bird come into the world, just because the bridge burned out of thin air for some reason, and some people heard the sound of the bridge breaking, it didn't take long for the bridge to collapse magically.
All kinds of wonderful rumors in history are evil, and this rumor of the broken bridge of the Suzaku is no exception.
Suzaku was originally a southern divine beast, belonging to fire, and the green dragon and white tiger Xuanwu are the same four elephants, Wang Xizhi was originally in people's mouths Xuanzhen Heavenly Maiden, I didn't think she could invite Suzaku to destroy the bridge.
Although Su Jun could go to see Wang Dao from another way, he didn't expect that the Wang family would issue such a heavy eviction order, and his heart palpitated for a while, what if Wang Xizhi got the fire on him? Although I had never heard that someone could summon the Vermilion Bird, the bridge was indeed burning in front of Su Jun's own eyes, Wang Xizhi was still standing in the fire at that time, not even a single hair was burning, and the big white goose beside her was still flapping its wings and screaming, extremely arrogant.
Immediately, Wang Xizhi left suddenly, wearing a gorgeous and elegant scarlet dress, which burned people's eyes.
Afterwards, Sima Zong smiled bitterly at Su Jun, "There are many mysterious realms and strange people in this world, and the rebellion of Jiangzuo and you and me, in the eyes of the gods, is just ants fighting for food." ”
