Chapter 144: Gao Yu Comes Again
"Oh no, no."
The next day, when Chen Zongshan was having dinner at the post house, a person came in shouting.
Chen Zongshan said unhappily: "How did you panic?" ”
Zhang Ganban, who was in Cai Jing's mansion at another table, exclaimed: "It can't be that the Liangshan thieves are coming to attack the city, right?" ”
When Li Yuhou in the Gao Yu Mansion at the same table heard this, he immediately got up and said, "Then let's leave quickly, lest we be taken by thieves and lose the prestige of the court." ”
Chen Zongshan heard the words of the two, and his face changed.
"No, no."
The servant waved his hand and said: "Last night, someone posted a lot of documents in the city, saying that Liangshan wanted to do the way for the heavens, and would never help the abuse, and persuaded the Son of Heaven to wake up early and kill the Taishi and other nine people, otherwise they would never recruit peace." Now it has spread throughout the city. ”
Zhang Ganban heard that the soldiers and horses of Liangshan did not come, and he was also relieved, slapped the table and scolded: "I don't want Liangshan thieves to be rampant, and the officials in this state are too incompetent." ”
When Chen Zongshan heard this, he complained even more.
There were no secrets in the Great Song Dynasty, and if the minister said something controversial in the early dynasty, it would spread throughout Tokyo on the same day.
Now that Yangsan has posted posts all over Jeju that he wants to kill nine people, I am afraid that the rumors of the nine thieves will spread all over the world in a few days.
At that time, it will be difficult to ensure that Cai Jing and others will not be angry with him.
Chen Zongshan didn't know how to eat this meal, and after eating it hastily, he returned to Tokyo with his group.
In the past few years, the emperor has not been in charge of politics for most of the time, and Chen Zongshan did not know where the emperor was, so he came to see Cai Jing first.
Zhang Ganban added fuel and vinegar, saying that Liangshan was rebellious. Killing nine people.
Cai Jing was furious when he heard this: "This gang of grass cowards, An dares to be so rude!" The dignified Song Dynasty, how to teach you to run amok! ”
At that moment, Cai Jing asked someone to invite Tong Guan, Gao Yu, and Yang Jian to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Discuss important matters of military affairs.
When there was no time, they were all invited to the White Tiger Hall of Taishi's Mansion, and the officials sat down, and Taishi Cai taught Zhang Ganban and Li Yuhou to talk about Liangshan's slander.
Yang Jian originally had no grudge against Liang Shan, and he didn't care about Zhao'an. Hearing that Liang Shan scolded him as a traitor, he couldn't help but say angrily: "How can this gang of thieves advocate recruiting him? Which one was the official concert in the first place? ”
Gao Yu said: "If I am in the court that day, I will definitely stop it." How to do it! ”
Tong Guan said: "Rats and dogs, what a worry! Send another man to lead the army and destroy them. ”
Cai Jing said: "Captain Gao led the troops to go before, but he didn't make any contributions, I'm afraid it won't be easy to exterminate them!" ”
The emperor didn't know the outcome of Gao Yu's battle, but everyone knew that Gao Yu was defeated.
Gao Yu's face was also a little red. said: "The people selected before were not effective. Therefore, he was defeated by the Liangshan thieves. If I am allowed to lead the army again, I will be able to destroy that gang of thieves. ”
Cai Jing saw that Gao Yu, who didn't dare to see the Son of Heaven when Liangshan had just attacked Dongping Mansion and Dongchang Mansion some time ago, suddenly said wildly, and said strangely: "If you let the Taiwei lead the troops forward, where will the Taiwei prepare the soldiers and horses?" ”
Tong Guan was also a little vigilant in his heart, Gao Yu also went to the west to work as a supervisor to earn military merits, and he also had friendships with some generals of the Western Army, but he had used troops in the west all these years, and he had long regarded the Western Army as a forbidden. If Gao Yu wants to transfer the Western Army, he has to be more vigilant.
Gao Yu smiled and said, "I'm going to adjust ten knots." Those ten people were all born in the green forest in the past, and later they were recruited and became Xu Da's official position, they were all elite and brave people, and they didn't have some fame for a while. Use them as generals, and you should be able to exterminate the Liangshan bandits. ”
When Cai Jing heard this, he smiled and said: "Taiwei's method is good, and it has the meaning of attacking the shield of the son with the spear of the son." They come from the green forest and are familiar with the methods in the green forest. The captain used them as error-free. ”
Tong Guan saw that Gao Yu was not the idea of fighting the Western Army, and he was also relieved, and said with a smile: "What the Taishi said is very true, the left and right are just some green forests and grasses, so it's okay to let them kill each other." ”
And after a while of deliberation, the traitors dispersed.
Cai Jing entered the palace again to tell the emperor and ask the emperor to go to court tomorrow.
The next morning, the officials shouted long live, the monarch and the ministers finished the ceremony, and Taishi Cai went out of class to play the matter to the Son of Heaven.
The Son of Heaven was furious and asked, "Who played the widow and advocated Zhao'an that day?" ”
The courtier played in the middle of the matter: "This day is what Cui Jing, the imperial historian, said. ”
The Son of Heaven taught Cui Jing to send Dali Temple to ask for guilt.
The Son of Heaven asked Cai Jing again: "When this thief has been harming for a long time, who can be punished?" ”
Taishi Cai said: "If you don't use heavy troops, you can't be ambushed." With the foolishness of the minister, Captain Gao and the thief had faced each other for a while before, knowing that Liangshan was false and real, and then let him lead the troops to sweep up, and he could win in an instant. ”
The Son of Heaven knew Gao Yu's ability, looked at Gao Yu with some unease, and asked, "What do you think?" ”
Gao Yu came out and said: "The minister is willing to follow the work of dogs and horses to get rid of the trouble of his henchmen." ”
The Son of Heaven saw that Gao Yu was not afraid, but thought that Gao Yu was really a bamboo in his chest, and then sent down a holy decree, gave him a golden seal talisman, and then worshiped Gao Yu as the generalissimo, and let the military horses be selected from all over the place, and went to arrest the Liangshan Bo thieves, and set off on the sun.
On the same day, hundreds of officials retreated, and Tong Guan and Gao Yu went to the Privy Council and issued a document to transfer troops. Let the ten knots make 10,000 elite soldiers belonging to each leader go to Jeju to collect them and wait for the call.
The ten knots are:
Henan and Hebei Jiedu made Wang Huan
Shangdang Taiyuan Festival made Xu Jing
Jingbei Hongnong Festival envoy Wang Wende
Yingzhou Runan Festival makes plum exhibition
Zhongshan Anping festival degree makes the opening
Jiangxia Lingling Festival made Yang Wen
Yunzhongmen knots make Han Cunbao
Longxi Hanyang Festival made Li Congji
Langya Pengcheng Festival degree envoy Xiang Yuan Town
Qinghe Tianshui Festival makes Jing Zhong
On the same day, the Privy Council set a schedule and issued ten official documents, asking all the ten military horses to arrive in Jeju as scheduled, and those who were slow should be dealt with according to the military order.
Gao Yu was afraid that after defeating Liangshan, Liangshan hid in Shuibo, and transferred a branch of the Jiankang Mansion in Jinling to be the head commander and called Liu Menglong.
When the man was born, his mother dreamed that a black dragon flew into her womb, and she was born. When he grew up, he was good at knowing the nature of water, and he had meritorious service in begging for thieves in the Xichuan Gorge River, and was promoted to the commander of the army, commanding 5,000 naval troops and 100 warships, and defending the south of the Yangtze River.
Gao Yu wanted to take this naval army and ships to come to listen to the call in the starry night, and asked the Jeju regiment to train Niu Bangxi to detain the Liangshan water and moored the boats, and they all had to come to Jeju to collect all of them and deliver them.
Gao Yu also went to the imperial camp to select 15,000 elite soldiers, a total of 120,000 military horses from all over the country, and sent grain and grass to the officials on all roads, and paid them along the way.
The soldiers and horses of the Ten Roads set off on a limited day, but Gao Yu was delayed in Beijing for more than 20 days before sending the imperial camp and horses out of the city, and more than 30 people were selected to teach the song and dance girls of the workshop to accompany the army for recreation.
When Gao Yu set off, it was already early May.
Officials of all sizes are bidding farewell in the long pavilion, wearing high uniforms and riding a gold-saddled war horse, the horse is also white, and there is not a single miscellaneous hair on his body. Head to tail, one zhang long, hooves to ridge, eight feet high.
There are five jade bridle carved saddle horses in front, and there are many palace commanders and commanders, commanders of the army, soldiers and horses defense regiment training and other officials in the back, who are behind.
Gao Yu led the army out of the city, dismounted in front of the Changting, bid farewell to the officials, drank and drank the wine, climbed the saddle and got on the horse, and boarded the journey to Jeju. (To be continued......)
