Chapter 160: Liu Zhiyuan Attacks the City
Although Liu Zhiyuan is very aggrieved as an emperor, he is still very famous in Chinese history.
Mainly very famous in the Chinese opera world.
In the Yuan Dynasty, there was a person named Liu Tangqing who wrote a Yuan opera, called "Liu Zhiyuan White Rabbit Story", this play later became one of the four major Yuan opera southern operas, which has been passed down for thousands of years, and now basically all folk operas, including Peking Opera and Sichuan, Yunnan, Hunan, Henan, Han, Chao Opera and other local operas have been circulated, and the more famous repertoire has "Mill Country", "Jingtai Meeting", "Mill Meeting", "Red Robe Story" and other plays.
Friends who like to listen to theater may know a little more.
"The Story of the White Rabbit" tells the story of Liu Zhiyuan when he was young, a poor bastard, wandering the streets, falling in love with Li Sanniang, the daughter of the landlord, and obstructing Li Sanniang in every possible way, saying that Li Sanniang corrupted the family style and punished Li Sanniang for grinding rice like a donkey in the backyard mill. Li Sanniang was pregnant at the time and was forced to give birth to Liu Zhiyuan's son Liu Chengyou, who later became the second emperor of the Later Han Dynasty, Emperor Han Yin.
Liu Zhiyuan had no choice but to run to join the army, follow Shi Jingjiao to rebel, and come back to marry Li Sanniang, who was locked up in the yard by his family to grind rice. After Liu Zhiyuan ascended the throne as the emperor, Li Sanniang was named the queen by Liu Zhiyuan, which pushed the face-slapping plot to a new climax.
What a beautiful and loyal love story that has never been forgotten for ten years! What a tear-jerking plot! Isn't it awesome? I also want to listen to "Jingtai Meeting" right away and have a good time!
It's a pity that it's all made up by the singers!
Li Sanniang really has this person, and Empress Dowager Li is also a famous figure in history.
Liu Zhiyuan was a little shepherd boy who herded horses for the family of the local tyrant Li in Jinyang when he was a child, and later got acquainted with a group of local ruffians and hooligans, who were lazy and engaged in fights every day. Once I met Miss Li on the road, I was shocked, and that night I entangled a group of hooligan brothers, pretending to be bandits to break into the Li family's village and snatch Li Sanniang.
offended the local tyrants, Liu Zhiyuan had no choice but to secretly place Li Sanniang in an urban village in Taiyuan City, and ran to be a soldier to avoid the limelight.
After Liu Zhiyuan established the Later Han Dynasty and became the emperor, Li Sanniang became the queen because she gave birth to the crown prince Liu Chengyou, and was known as the Empress Dowager Li in history.
In the official history, this farce of robbing the people's daughters finally turned into a happy ending.
Therefore, Liu Zhiyuan, a cowardly horse bandit gangster, pulls Feng Meng, a sour literati who has no common language at all, and praises his brother every day when he is fine, do you think Feng Meng can't see it?
Isn't it just the idea of his own daughter?
Feng Meng is a powerless sour literati, but he is not a fool. Can't you hide if you can't afford to provoke it? It's just that she didn't expect her daughter to come to Shizhou and avoid Liu Zhiyuan, but fell into the hands of Han Kuangsi.
But think about Han Kuangsi's son-in-law is not bad, he is young and has unlimited futures, anyway, his daughter has pasted Han Kuangsi's portrait on the bedside as an idol since she was a child, and of course she is 10,000 willing to marry Han Kuangsi, so she has to pinch her nose and admit it.
Surrendered to the Zhenwu army, just in time to avoid a group of hungry wolves in the Jin Kingdom!
However, the big hooligan Liu Zhiyuan quit!
Uncle Liu Zhiyuan Liu, this big hooligan who has a history of robbing people's daughters, has been holding back for ten years, watching Feng Yuqi grow up! From a little Lori who dragged her nose and couldn't walk steadily, grabbed the corner of his clothes and called him uncle affectionately, watching her grow up day by day, becoming more and more beautiful day by day, seeing that she was about to grow ripe, she could take it off and eat it, who knew that there were unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and the little white rabbit who arrived at the mouth was suddenly abducted away by a little white face!
This is too much of a slap in the face!
In the official history, Feng Yuqi was later favored by Shi Jingjiao and married his younger brother Shi Chongyin as a matchmaker. The beauty he liked was snatched away by the big boss, and Liu Zhiyuan had no choice but to give up in order to keep his job and head.
But now Feng Yuqi was snatched away by Han Kuangsi's little white face, how could he endure it!
"Hit! Capture Shizhou City and capture Han Kuangsi with a thousand cuts! Take back my little beauty! ”
Of course, Liu Zhiyuan didn't know at this time that Han Kuangsi had already left Shizhou with the Feng family, and they were almost in Lanzhou at this time.
When the cavalry of the Jin army came to the city of Shizhou, they actually saw the gate of Shizhou wide open, and the defenders of Shizhou seemed to not know that the Jin army had come.
In all fairness, Liu Zhiyuan can also be regarded as a generation of famous generals.
Whether it is the Tang Dynasty after the destruction of the south, the rejection of the Khitan in the north, and the suppression of rebellions in various places, he has rich battlefield experience and relatively high combat quality.
However, what kind of person is Han Kuangsi! A smart guy who does things without leaks! Otherwise, He Daxian would not have given him the title of secretary as soon as he came. He wouldn't have thought that you would come to retaliate? Will he stupidly open the gates of the city and let you rush in without any preparation?
Even Han Kuangsi is hormonal, and he is anxious to rush back to Zhenzhou, let General Zhao be a matchmaker as soon as possible to arrange to marry Feng Meiren, and strive to strip off Feng Yuqi's little girl as soon as possible and carry her into the quilt to do whatever she wants, venting the evil fire in her chest. But before leaving Shizhou, it was not that there was no backhand at all.
In fact, these backhands are not clever strategies at all, that is, they are just traps laid by Han Kuangsi.
It's just that when men encounter women, they are always anxious, and if there is a shortcut, they take a shortcut. Liu Zhiyuan's wisdom as a general at this moment had already been blinded by the fire of jealousy burning in his chest, and when he saw the gate of Shizhou open from afar, he ordered the whole army to assault without thinking about it!
The five thousand cavalry of the Jin army didn't even have time to line up, and they directly hula a large group rushed towards the Shizhou City Gate!
Coming from Fenzhou and entering Shizhou, you need to cross a Dongchuan River. The Dongchuan River is not large, only about 50 meters wide, and the river is not deep, the deepest part of the middle of the river is about 35 meters deep.
The Dongchuan River is decent, and it is impossible to ride a horse and wade through the water directly, but the river is not deep, the river is stable, and it is easy to build a stone bridge.
There is a stone bridge in front of the south gate of Shizhou, which is the kind of traditional stone bridge common in the Central Plains, the bridge deck is flat, can accommodate four horses in parallel, usually pedestrians and cavalry are to cross the river by this stone bridge, and the general cart pulling goods can also take this stone bridge.
After crossing the stone bridge, about 200 meters away, there is the moat, suspension bridge and south gate of Shizhou.
The sergeant guarding the gate of Shizhou City suddenly saw a large number of cavalry frantically charging over, and was so frightened that he quickly dispersed the people and other idle people at the gate, desperately trying to close the city gate.
The Shizhou sergeant who was closing the door was anxious, scolded again and again, pointed at the owner's nose with a spear, and didn't move the big car again, no wonder the military master was not polite.
Who knew that several big men, including the owner of the car, ignored them, and quickly took out a hidden long knife from the straw pile on the cart, and wanted to defend the cart to the death.
This is obvious, several people are pretending to be Jin troops, and they are specially coming to block the city gate, which can be regarded as an old routine of the Jin army envoys to deceive the city gate.
There are more than a dozen Shizhou soldiers guarding the city gate, and more than a dozen spears stabbed together, how do you think that those big men are not weak, ping pong, you come and I dismantle a few moves, and I don't fall behind!
It's too late now, the Jin cavalry has already rushed onto the stone bridge!
Someone behind him shouted, "Get out of the way!" The dozen or so Shizhou city gate guards immediately turned around and fled to the city, and after letting go of the empty city gate, a few arrows shot from somewhere in the city, and shot these Jin soldiers who pretended to carry straw to death on the spot.
However, the gates are still open!
Listening to a series of rumbling crashes, the heavy cavalry of the Jin army who rushed into the door hole first had completely pushed the city gate open, and a large number of Jin cavalry were like a rolling torrent, breaking through the stone bridge, breaking through the drawbridge of the moat, and rushing into the city without hindrance!
And then there is no then!
These Jin cavalry, who rushed in all the way, only to find that there was a thicker city gate in front of Nima as soon as they rushed into the city gate!
Everyone hasn't forgotten it, this Shizhou City, but there is an urn city!
But the other Jin cavalry that continued to rush in at the highest speed behind forced the cavalry running in front to continue to move forward until there was no way out!
There was a bang on the wall of the urn city, hundreds of Zhenwu army archers and Shizhou army archers showed their heads, and countless feather arrows rained down from the city wall towards the Jin cavalry trapped in the urn city!
The most infuriating thing is that the stone bridge, which was obviously very strong just now, suddenly somehow, at this time, one of the bridge slabs collapsed inexplicably, cutting off thousands of Jin cavalry who rushed across the river at the end of the Dongchuan River! (To be continued.) )
