……
Luoyang.
Ziwei Palace, Qifeng Palace.
Queen Ma hugged the little prince Yang Yi, and looked at the person in front of her with a somewhat pale face, as if she was expecting her father to guide the way before she left the pavilion.
After all, a woman is a woman, even if Queen Ma is the mother of the world, of course, this has a lot to do with her own weak nature.
The person in front of Empress Ma is the old man Cui Shicui, the right prime minister, who is telling Empress Ma that Yang Xuangan's army has pressed the border and has reached Pingxian County, the northern gateway of the imperial capital.
Cui Shi pondered and said as tactfully as possible: "Queen Mother, the garrison of Pingxian County is worth three thousand...... Alas! I can't resist it! ”
Queen Ma's pale face turned even paler, her hands trembled, trying to maintain her majesty, and said, "Prime Minister Cui, right now...... What should I do? After all...... After all, His Majesty transferred most of the four guards in Luoyang, and Wu Hu rode south and took away another 10,000, and there was not much left. ”
Cui Shi smiled bitterly, he didn't know how to answer.
After pondering for a while, Cui Shi sighed: "It's still difficult for a good woman to cook without rice!" ”
The little prince Yang Yi squirmed restlessly in Queen Ma's arms, raised his face, blinked his big black eyes, and wondered: "Why don't you ask Lord Taifu to calm down those bad guys?" ”
Queen Ma touched her son's head and said, "If Taifu is here, it would be good, he is too far away!" ”
Pursing her lips, Queen Ma said: "Yang Xuan's feeling is menacing, and it is coming in an instant. Far water can't quench the thirst of the near. Whether it is Wu Hussar in Yangzhou, the king of Hanoi, or Pei Zhengxi in the northwest, it is too late to rescue, and we have to rely on ourselves to resist. At the same time, I sent a letter to ask them to come as soon as possible. Prime Minister Cui Cheng, who can be a general in the imperial capital? ”
Old man Cui is in trouble, because the empire fought Goguryeo, and almost all the generals who can fight well have been dispatched, so how can anyone be sent?
After thinking about it for a long time, Old Man Cui gave an answer and said: "Wei Wensheng, the former secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is at home. Why don't you reactivate him for emergencies? ”
Wei Wensheng, Wei Xuanye!
Wei Xuan is a native of Luoyang, and he worshiped Yongzhou in his early years. When he took office, it coincided with the Qiang rebellion and besieged the city of Zhisuo.
Wei Xuan rode alone to the camp of the Qiang people and said to them, "I am the Assassin of Yongzhou. I am ordered by the Son of Heaven to raise you. Do not be afraid. ”
No one dared to move.
So Wei Xuan stated the benefits and disadvantages to them, and the Qiang commander was moved and broke the siege.
Wei Xuan's reputation was shocked, and there were more than 100,000 Qiang people who returned to obedience before and after.
Later, Wei Xuan was meritorious and was transferred to Chang'an, the then Beijing Division, and served as the secretary of the Criminal Department.
The Qiang people are nostalgic for Wei Xuan, and the people who send each other continue within hundreds of miles.
Wei Xuan told them: "The Son of Heaven sent me back to Beijing, and I can't stay for a long time." ”
Wei Xuan said goodbye to them. The Qiang people went away in tears.
But......
That was many years ago, at least thirty or forty years ago. For a while, the king of the backer did not know how to make the Qiang people famous all over the world.
Another explanation is that Wei Xuan's current age is really not small, and the backer king has to be regarded as his descendant.
Queen Ma heard of Wei Xuan, and couldn't help but stammer: "This ...... Can Wei Gong be physically capable? Are there any other candidates? ”
Cui Shi was extremely distressed, he really couldn't think of anyone!
Right now.
"Dada...... Da Da ....... ”
There was a sound of footsteps.
Luo Yuan, the chief eunuch of the inner chamberlain, hurriedly came in from outside and shouted loudly: "Great joy! Exultation! Exultation! ”
Queen Ma raised her head, frowned, and said, "Grandpa Luo, what's the big deal?" ”
Luo Yuan saluted to Queen Ma, Cui Shi, and the little prince, and said: "The Huangmen guard has a report, the hussar general feels that the civil uprising in the north is expanding day by day, and he is afraid that the imperial capital will be lost. ”
Queen Ma stood up suddenly, exhaled deeply, and said with a smile: "This is the best news in a few days!" ”
The little prince Yang Yi tilted his head and said, "Lord Taifu is back?" ”
Luo Yuan nodded, overjoyed: "Yes, Your Highness!" Wu Hussar may be able to arrive around evening! ”
Cui Shi also put down the big stone in his heart, but in an instant, he said: "Wu Hussar can only arrive in the evening, and Yang Xuangan's army can come at noon!" ”
Queen Ma changed her face and asked, "Prime Minister Cui Cheng, can you stop the city gate when you close it now?" ”
Cui Shi pondered for a while and said, "The old minister will go and organize people...... Yang Xuangan suddenly raised troops, there was absolutely no sufficient siege equipment, and the imperial capital was high and the city was strong, so it was not something that could be taken down in a moment! ”
Undoubtedly.
Queen Ma and Prime Minister Cui Cheng pinned their hopes on Wu Fan.
……
……
Yang cheng.
It is more than 120 miles away from Luoyang.
Wu Fan led 10,000 cavalry, one man and two horses, day and night, galloping.
At this speed, Wu Fan was still not very satisfied.
Tong Guò Jia Xu continued to use Haidong Qingxin Eagle to pass on information, Wu Fan already knew that Yang Xuangan was in the imperial capital, and he had to arrive before then.
Wu Fan thought about it, called Bai over, and said, "Gongsun, I want to take the first step to stabilize the situation in Luoyang, and the troops will be led by you to continue to advance." ”
Bai Qi didn't say much, and he resolutely clenched his fists.
Wu Fan immediately ordered his own 800 personal guard battalion, and counted Gao Zhong, Jiang Song, Huang Zhong, Wang Junke, and Wei Wentong, broke away from the large army, and ran to the imperial capital with their lives.
In Pingxian County, the gateway to the north of Luoyang, there are fewer defenders in the end, and they are not the opponent of Yang Xuangan's army of more than 100,000 at all, and they were crushed into slag almost instantly.
After the capture of Pingxian, Yang Xuan was complacent, did not make adjustments, and came to Luoyang City majestically and high-spirited.
Luoyang is the first male city in the world, the city wall is as high as more than three zhang, seeing the gate closed, the drawbridge tightened, and the defenders on the wall stand solemnly, Yang Xuan felt ...... Dumbfounded.
Ya patronized the siege of the city, forgetting that she did not have siege equipment.
What can't you lose, Yang Xuan ordered the army to line up. The single horse swayed to the front of the Luoyang North City Pass.
Yang Xuangan shouted: "Listen to the people in the city! Emperor Sui was promiscuous, his laws and regulations were promiscuous, and he taught the four dimensions. Torture and torture, hoeing flesh and bones, slaughtering the loyal and good, the rewarded do not see their merits, and those who kill do not know their crimes. The angry soldiers have moved repeatedly, and the work of civil engineering has not stopped. Negative wealth and insatiable desire. Frequently out of Shuofang, driving in Liaozuo, the flag is thousands of miles. Hundreds of taxes are levied, cunning officials invade fishing, and people are unbearable. I Yang Liang, Yang Xuangan, virtue thin can be fresh. The word "loyalty" alone is the foundation of the march. Defeat the tyrant. There is the sun and the moon, there are ghosts and gods, there is the water of the mighty Yangtze River, and there is the soul of the martyrs who martyred the loyal ministers and martyrs before, and I have learned from my heart! Look at the wise and know, and work with me to create peace. If you are threatened, you are willing to rebel and resist the punishment of heaven. The soldiers pressed it, and the jade was burned. Nor can it be more distinctive! ”
"Knock Knock Knock ......!!!"
Drum tee.
"Drink Drink ......!!!"
The rebels roared with blood.
I have to say that Yang Xuangan's literary style is good, and his incitement ability is extremely strong. His words first pointed out that "the king has no way" and described that his rebellion was justified. Secondly, exaggerate the harm of the Son of Heaven to the world, exaggerate the suffering of the people, and make people support him. In the end, he threatened the people in Luoyang City, even if he didn't have that ability, it was very cool to fight!
Above the city pass, the right prime minister Cui Shi was impressively listed.
The old man looked down at Yang Xuangan condescendingly, and sneered: "Rampant child! Your father is in the way, the ambition is magnificent, the machine is bright, the strategy of the time, and the talent of the country. Wang Ye Chuji, Batu Zhaojian, the name of the commission, the teacher, the capture of the fierce leader, Keping Liang, Yan. Frequency Cheng Temple counts, Yang Yang Jiang Table, every Rong law, long drive plug yin, south refers and Wu Yue is clear, north and the devil is destroyed, what kind of loyalty and bravery? Don't you learn from his Wentao martial arts strategy and serve the country well, but you dare to rebel? When you teach the first law, can you have the face to see his spirit in the sky? ”
Old man Cui was wise, bullied Yang Xuangan for not having enough seniority, and deliberately made fun of his father Yang Su.
Yang Xuan was very angry, and shouted: "Mencius' The people are precious, the community is second, and the monarch is light. Therefore, the people of the hill are the sons of heaven, the sons of heaven are the princes, and the princes are the doctors. The princes are in danger, and they are replaced. The sacrifice is completed, the prosperity is clean, and the ancestors are worshipped, but the early dry water overflows, and the community is changed. ”
Old man Cui replied: "Do you know the Lu of the king of food and the matter of loyalty to the king?" ”
Yang Xuangan understood that he couldn't argue that an old guy with all his eyebrows was hollow, so he changed the topic and said: "Prime Minister Cui Cheng!" I respect you for your high morality and noble birth, and I don't want you to eat the ancients! Let's go! Such! As long as you open the city, I promise not to be rude to you! ”
Old Man Cui said: "Then you can wait until you defeat the hussar general!" ”
"Hussar General......
Yang Xuangan was about to continue, when the words stopped abruptly, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and looked behind him with a weak heart.
Wu Fan's name has reached the same level as the king of the backer with his big victories again and again, and even his official position as a hussar general has been squeezed out of Yang Su, as Yang Su's son, Yang Xuangan has experienced it.
Yang Su once commented on Wu Fan: This son's bad conduct is bad, he is inferior to me compared to Wenzhi, and I am inferior to him compared to martial arts.
Who is Yang Su?
A great general who is famous for fighting wars!
He admits that he is not as good at fighting as someone Wu, not to mention Yang Xuangan, who is far worse than his father?
Perhaps sensing that his actions contained cowardice, Yang Xuan was annoyed and ashamed, and shouted: "Then you have to wait until he comes from Yangzhou!" ”
Old man Cui said: "He's here!" ”
"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”
The shouts rang out.
Yang Xuangan was in chaos behind the army array, and a banner with gold characters on a black background was waving in the wind, with a big word written on it - Wu!
……
……
Luoyang.
Hurry up, Wu Fan finally arrived.
But.
Yang Xuangan arrived before Wu Fan.
Seeing the rebel array that could not be seen at a glance, Wu Fan was speechless: "The reputation is really a good thing, Yang Xuangan is a fool, he can actually have so many soldiers and horses?" ”
Wu Fan could have entered from the imperial capital Nancheng, but he didn't, just to give Yang Xuan a sense of dismount, so that the people of Luoyang could feel what he could bring after his arrival, and calm down the panicked people's hearts.
Turning his phoenix mouth purple gold knife, Wu Fan turned around and glanced at the five generals, and said with a smile: "I want to rush into battle and capture the flag, who are you willing to chase?" ”
The five of them took out their weapons one after another, and said in unison: "I am willing to follow the lord!" ”
"Good!"
Wu Fan was greatly satisfied.
Wu Fan's eyes rolled, and he said excitedly: "The five of you all have the courage of ten thousand people, and it is difficult for anyone to compete under my command, so ask me today to see which of you is the real leader!" ”
Gao Pet's neck shook, the chiseled golden tiger head gun was shining, his legs were clamped between the horse's belly, and he rushed out silently.
Wei Wentong followed the horse, brandishing a flower knife and roaring: "You are cheating!" ”
Jiang Song, Huang Zhong, and Wang Jun are not to be outdone.
Wu Fan postponed it instead, taking eight hundred guards with him.
"Boom ......!"
The horses galloped, the smoke billowed out, and the sky cracked.
Yang Xuan felt that the rebels were caught off guard, and were suddenly poked five big holes from behind by Gao Zhong and other five people.
The cavalry's impact ability was very strong, especially when the other party was defenseless, Wu Fan's 800 personal guard battalion instantly scuttled into the sea of people.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!!! ”
Wu Fan fought bloodily and roared angrily in the sky.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”
The 800 guards battalion responded to Wu Fan's shout.
"Ahhh......hh
The rebels screamed.
In fact, the battle ended very quickly, with more than 100,000 people on one side and more than 800 people on the other...... He galloped all the way from Yangcheng, knowing that the bodies of war horses and soldiers could no longer support a long battle.
So.
Wu Fan really just gave Yang Xuangan a dismount, and then called for the soldiers to kill from the rebels' flanks.
The number of people was large and bloated, and Yang Xuangan's encirclement and suppression order waited for Wu Fan to leave, and then it was transmitted to the various commanders......
"Hahaha!"
"Fun! Carefree! ”
Wu Fan laughed.
Wu Fan made a detour to enter the city from the west gate of Luoyang, and the enemy did not dare to pursue.
After Wu Fan entered the city, he went to Ziwei Palace as soon as possible.
Prime Minister Cui Cheng also rushed from Luoyang North to Ziwei Palace.
Wu Fan, Cui Shi, Queen Ma, and the little prince Yang Yi met.
Seeing that Wu Fan was covered in blood, Queen Ma was frightened: "Wu Hussar, you ......"
Wu Fan smiled: "Minister, it's rude!" Forget jì take a bath and then meet the queen...... It's all the enemy's. ”
Cui Shi said on the side: "When the Wu Hussar returned, he attacked the rebels as soon as possible, beheaded thousands of people, and when he withdrew, no one dared to stop him." ”
Wu Fan saluted and said: "Minister, hussar general, meet the queen mother and His Royal Highness the prince!" ”
The little prince Yang Yi happily jumped to Wu Fan's side, stretched out his hand to dip a little blood on the armor, and said yearningly: "Lord Taifu is so majestic!" I want to be like Master Taifu in the future! ”
Wu Fan smiled and said: "When the ministers have quelled the rebellion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can learn martial arts with his ministers if he wants!" ”
"Yi'er! Come here! Queen Ma called the little prince to her side, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and asked without raising her head: "How many soldiers and horses did Wu Hussar bring with him when he returned this time?" That's right! I heard Grandpa Luo say, don't you want to be able to arrive in the evening? ”
Wu Fan was dignified and said: "I heard that Yang Xuan felt a fierce momentum, and the minister was anxious, so he led eight hundred guards one step ahead, and the remaining 10,000 cavalry would arrive in the evening, and the minister also dispatched two thousand sailors, I am afraid it will take a little longer, and they will be able to arrive in three or four days." After a pause, he added confidently: "Niangniang can rest assured, although there are many thieves, but the good and the bad are uneven, far more than the Qiang people, the Turks are fierce, the minister has more than 30,000 soldiers and horses in hand, and defeating them is just around the corner!" ”
Most of Wu's victories were won by fighting more with less, and Queen Ma didn't know it.
Queen Ma rubbed her eyebrows, laughed, and said: "Wu Hussar, I am a woman and a Taoist family, I don't understand the things of fighting and killing, you are the imperial capital appointed by His Majesty, at this critical moment, I hope you don't worry too much, and try to turn the tide as much as possible!" ”
Queen Ma has two meanings, she does not participate, does not hinder, does not restrict Wu Fan from any actions, and shows her attitude of trusting Wu Fan.
Wu Fan bowed down and said, "Minister, understand!" The current situation is dangerous, and there are not many ministers left, so I will go to rectify the soldiers and horses, and prepare to face Yang Xuangan's thief! ”
