On November 7, the first year of Zhou Guangshun (951), Wang Jun set off, and Guo Wei personally went to see him off. Such a generous kindness, just for one request. Brother Wang Jun, don't be the second Yang Guangyuan (the number one traitor in the Tang Dynasty after the Khitan was destroyed), and the second Du Chongwei (the number one traitor in the Jin Dynasty after the Khitan was destroyed). Guo Wei anxiously waited for the news of the victory ahead in Bianliang City, but what disappointed him and even made him mad was that Wang Jun had received so many rewards and did not work. When the news came, Wang Jun actually stopped halfway.

Jinju City is waiting for the central rescue in the city, and what does it mean that you, Wang Jun, are not stationed? On December 1, the anxious Guo Wei couldn't wait any longer, and he decided to go to support in person. Before leaving, he sent a letter to Wang Jun, and Wang Jun immediately replied with a letter: Your Majesty, now that the morale of the Khitan and Northern Han coalition forces is strong, although I can control all kinds of soldiers and horses, the only thing that can really mobilize freely is only these more than 20,000 forbidden troops. With 20,000 against 70,000 (including 50,000 foreign cavalry), the odds of victory are not good. And I believe: Jinju City is strong, the soldiers are good and the food is sufficient, and the three acting generals can also use their lives. And the Khitan cavalry is good at field battles and is not good at attacking fortifications. As long as they hold out a little longer, the situation will turn in their favor. I only have to wait for a month or two, and the enemy army will go deeper, and the food and grass will definitely be short. And the fortified city has not been able to attack the city for a long time, and the momentum has also declined. At this time, if I send troops to attack again, I will definitely win a big victory and get Jinju! But the emperor, you must sit in the capital and not move.

The most popular Wang Jun mentioned a name: Murong Yanchao. According to various intelligence, this Taining Jiedu envoy, who single-handedly challenged Guo Weiqin's army a year ago, was not willing to lie down. He recruited outlaws, gathered livestock and grain, wrote letters to the Northern Han and Southern Tang Dynasty, discussed giving Guo Wei a horse together, and the thief shouted to catch the thief to forge a letter from Gao Xingzhou, the general of the Later Zhou Dynasty, the content of which was to slander the court and collude with himself to conspire against him, Guo Wei smiled indifferently when he saw this letter, "Murong Yanchao is using a counter-strategy!" Just send this letter to General Gao untouched" So when Wang Jun had such an aphorism in his letter to Guo Wei, "If Your Majesty moves, then Murong Yanchao will lead troops to copy your back road, and our Great Zhou Dynasty is really going to be finished", Guo Wei suddenly realized, and said with his hand to his ear: I almost missed a big thing!

In this way, the affairs of Jinzhou have to rely entirely on Wang Jun. And Wang Jun had to work hard for the three in the city to hold on a little longer.

Sure enough, the coalition army is not enough to eat! Don't forget that the Liao army has always gone out without food. Although Liu Chong had military rations, he did not make a budget of 50,000 allied troops. After eating for more than a month, the military rations were gone. In December, the weather was cold and slippery, and it was impossible to get lucky for a while. The Khitan soldiers decided to use their old method: rob! A group of Khitan soldiers came out of the barracks, many of whom were veterans who had been to the Central Plains two or three times. If you know where there is food, money, and girls, then grab it! The Khitan cavalry, full of hope, only grabbed the disappointment at the end. The common people have been robbed for more than half a century, and no matter how stupid people are, they can learn to be smart. Someone specializes in looking at the wind. As soon as the Khitan devils came, the news tree was cut down. Immediately, the people went around hiding food and hiding. After robbing for two or three days, I was tired and half dead, and the food I robbed was not enough to eat for a day. It's okay to be hungry for a day or two, but the temperature is colder every day, what should I do? Of the 70,000 Han and Liao coalition troops, three out of ten died of freezing and starvation.

This is the opportunity that Wang Jun has been waiting for! On the 18th, he finally sent troops to Jinju. At this point, there is only one obstacle left. To the south of Jinju there is Mong Nguyen, and the terrain is dangerous. In case of ambush, the army will be lost. Wang Jun sent Yao Yuanfu to lead 3,000 troops to explore the road first. It's called pathfinding, but it's actually stepping on a landmine. Yao Yuanfu's name was well chosen, and the blessed man led his troops to rush through Meng Ruan in one go. The enemy no longer has the energy to set up an ambush and send reinforcements, and it is too late to grab food! As soon as Wang Jun's army passed through Mengruan, Liu Chong knew that he would be defeated. Grit your teeth and withdraw to Taiyuan!

At this time, all the generals asked to chase down the poor and strive to eliminate Liu Chong on the road. But Wang Jun felt that he should take a break. Solving the siege of Jinju is already a great achievement. But Wang Jun, who had rested all night, suddenly figured it out: maybe, maybe, he didn't make any meritorious contributions, after all, he didn't even have contact with the enemy. Even if it is a credit, it can only be Wang Wan who dares them in Jinju City. Wang Jun, who came back to his senses, decided to send troops to chase his own merits. He really caught up with him. The Northern Han soldiers, who didn't have enough to eat and couldn't run fast, were caught up from behind their butts by the Zhou soldiers, who ran a day later than them. In a panic, they trampled back and forth, and they were not killed by Zhou Bing, but many people rolled down the cliff. But Zhou Bing was also stunned when he saw that the road was getting narrower and narrower, and he didn't dare to move forward. I'm afraid that when the time comes, I may be trampled on. Although there is medicine Yuanfu advocates that it is advisable to chase the poor and brave the victorious and go straight to Taiyuan Dragon City. But Kang Yannuma and other generals advocated abandonment. The cautious Wang Jun saw that he had already made a profit, so he didn't want to be too greedy, so he let Liu Chong go. And Xiao Yuju of the Liao State also ran to Taiyuan in a fit of anger, and killed a chief in frustration to vent his anger. After this war, under the rule of the sleeping king, the Liao state began its decline for nearly twenty years......

Guo Wei heard the military report and couldn't help but sigh: If you follow the words of Yao Yuanfu, there will be boundless trouble! When Wang Jun rested enough, his brain turned around and he realized that this time he worked hard to mobilize the people, but he had nothing to say about his credit! What to do? Wang Jun, who was inspired by it, remembered that after fighting for so long, the city walls were broken. Although the enemy army is gone, it is uncertain when it will come again. If we don't repair the walls, how will we resist the enemy in the future? Wang Jun mobilized more than 20,000 Dingfu to repair Jinzhou City, which can be regarded as a small merit. But this repair, Wang Jun picked up the sesame seeds and lost the watermelon, missing the beginning of a good show.

On the 15th day of the first month of the 2nd year of Guangshun (952), Wang Jun returned to Bianliang from Jinzhou, and a week earlier, Murong Yanchao had rebelled in Yanzhou. So Guo Wei sent Cao Ying to be the chief general of the counterinsurgency. But it was obvious that Cao Ying and the others were not at odds for a while, and Murong Yanchao, who was well prepared. Everyone has used their strength to eat, and Yanzhou City is still as solid as a rock. No way. On May 5, Guo Wei came out of Bianliang City to recruit in person. On the 13th, he went to the city of Yanzhou.

Guo Wei is good at psychological warfare and knows how to boost morale. It's a good idea to lead by example, but that's a bit stupid. In case you die before you get out of the school, who will wipe your tears for you? It's not bad to make money, but you can only buy it for a while, and you can't keep it for a long time. After all, everyone is not stupid, and they all know how to give up money to save their lives between money and life. Then the only thing left is to start with self-confidence. To convince the soldiers that we are victorious. But how do you build confidence in victory? Reasoning and telling the facts is not necessarily useful. After all, you are not Japanese devils, and if you say that the two martial arts are long-lasting, you can cultivate a large number of kamikaze special attack teams. To build up faith, we must actually start with false reasoning, starting with something that is supernatural. And Guo Wei is obviously one of the masters.

Guo Wei dreamed. An immortal came to Guo Wei's dream and told him: The saint will return to Beijing on the second day of the next month. After speaking, he drifted away, leaving Guo Wei with an incomparably beautiful imaginary prospect. Yes? On the second day of next month, will I be able to win and return to Beijing? Is this the dream of the gods entering Guo Wei, or the dream of Guo Wei entering the immortals? I can't tell. The gods did not enter my dreams to tell me the truth. But Guo Wei told the generals about this auspicious dream: Brothers, don't worry, the gods have predicted me. We will win, and on the second day of next month.

The besieging soldiers were besieging the city a little deflated. Hearing Guo Wei's words, everyone was excited. Dare that the immortal also injected adrenaline into their bodies?

Murong Yanchao is far behind in this regard. He is a stingy man, which should be the biggest flaw in his rebellious career. What success did Li Congke have for Lang? Before he gets the world, he will give people a white note. What success did Shi Jingtang have for Lu? Not only was he willing to give people money and land, but he could even be a son. What success did Guo Wei have for Lu? He could make the soldiers rob openly for ten days! And Murong Yanchao dragged people to rebel with him, risking the risk of killing his head and exterminating the clan, but he was reluctant to use his savings to share a point with everyone in order to boost morale. Slowly, Murong Yanchao also noticed this serious problem. He seemed to have opened his mind, and suddenly became so generous. Everyone gave copper coins, and he directly issued silver. This is hard currency and is not afraid of depreciation. After taking the silver, everyone should work hard and beat the Zhou soldiers outside back to my hometown, right?

The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. It is impossible for the stingy Murong Yanchao to become a stingy Shi Chong all of a sudden. The silver was nothing more than a counterfeit made in his small cottage workshop. The inside is an iron tire, and the outside is wrapped in a little silver. And some of the soldiers who received the reward had worked in this cottage workshop, and they knew the inside story. At this time, the news that Murong Yanchao used fake silver to give a reward and fooled the soldiers spread all over Yanzhou. What is the way to make money with such a stingy boss? Morale did not stir up, but fell even lower.

Murong Yanchao had no foreign aid (thousands of reinforcements from the Southern Tang Dynasty were captured by Guo Wei and then put back), and the internal soldiers had no intention of fighting. There was only one way left for him. On May 20, the city of Yanzhou was breached. The stingy ghost Murong Yanchao and his wife threw themselves into the well and died.

But on May 20th, this is nearly ten days earlier than the second day of the next month when the gods are good. There was no way, in order to cooperate with that dream, Guo Wei had to count his fingers in Yanzhou and wait for that day to come. On June 2, Guo Wei returned to the army, and as soon as he got on the road, it rained heavily. Guo Wei thanked God for helping him fulfill this lie. There is a saying on the left and right: You see, the gods told us to go on the second day, if we don't leave on June 2, I'm afraid we will all be flooded on the road.

But who is that fairy? Guo Wei found the corresponding person. Very close, just near Qufu near Yanzhou. There is a great sage here. I don't say that everyone knows it. Sage Kong!

On June 1, 952, the day before departure, Guo Wei went to the Temple of Confucius, not knowing whether he wanted to travel or repay his wishes. As soon as he entered and saw the statue of Confucius, Guo Wei suddenly woke up: This is the immortal who prophesied to me in his dream! Reading history so far, I am a little puzzled. Sage Kong is in charge of reading, etiquette, blowing, playing and singing, when did the war come? But Guo Wei decided that he wanted to repay Sage Kong. "Confucius, courtiers also. should not be worshiped by the Son of Heaven", "Confucius, the teacher of the hundred emperors, dare to be disrespectful"

After all, Sage Kong is afraid that he has not enjoyed this kind of treatment for more than a hundred years. For more than 100 years, martial artists have been rampant. They clamored for the rule of force and used a hair awl (brush) to trample the Confucian disciples to nothing. Guo Wei's move may mean that the era of Wuweak Wenchang is coming, and the prosperous era belonging to the Confucian sage is coming. Maybe in a few decades, it will reach an unprecedented height!

The rebellion in Guangshun came to an end. Guo Wei, who became a disciple of Confucius next, is going to rule the world. What is interesting about this is that Guo Wei exempted the cattle rent of the people. Speaking of this cattle rent, it's a bit historical. Zhu Wen, who was the first to eat crabs in the fifth generation, attacked Huainan and robbed tens of thousands of cultivated cattle from the people, and then returned and rented them to the people. What kind of bullshit is this, snatching the tools of production from the hands of the people, and then renting these tools to the people, taking most of the value (Tianfu) from the value they create, and getting another share from it in the form of cattle rent? However, from Zhu Wen to Guo Wei's predecessor Liu Chengyou, all emperors did that. Boss Guo felt that doing this would dry up and fish, killing chickens and eggs. So he abolished these exorbitant taxes. Through a few similar things, Guo Wei slowly became better in the reputation of the common people, and the Great Zhou Dynasty became great, glorious and correct. It is said that Guo Wei should be happy, but Guo Wei did not. He's annoying. It was none other than Wang Jun who annoyed him. This Guo Wei's 'brother' began to torture Guo Wei and Chai Rong for nearly a year.
