Chapter 484: Pull a hair and move the whole body
Tian Chengsi only felt that his chest was stuffy, his blood was churning, and he was stabbed by a horse lance that stretched out from nowhere, although it was not penetrated because it was protected by armor, but he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
He knew very well that the other party must be bluffing!
As for the research of grenadiers, An Lushan has done a very thorough job, and with Liu Luogu's efforts, they have a good understanding of the number and equipment of grenadiers.
In Ye Chang's hands, there were only more than two hundred and less than three hundred grenadiers, and their grenades were limited, so they had to be used in clusters. If the grenadiers really came, the explosions should be continuous, not just two!
"And the grenadiers are of no use at all in this kind of melee, he doesn't dare to throw grenades, otherwise it will be difficult to distinguish between the enemy and us, they will appear, and it is the best chance to destroy them!"
Tian Chenghei understands all these truths, but he understands them, but the sergeants under his command don't understand them!
Many of his subordinates participated in the coup d'Γ©tat on Chinese New Year's Eve, and even suffered from grenades. Those who had not personally experienced the power of gunpowder weapons on the battlefield also heard many exaggerated rumors from their companions. Although An Lushan and Tian Chengsi and others are familiar with the art of war, they do not have the idea of analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of the enemy and the enemy to the head of each small soldier - but Ye Chang has this requirement in the general class of Lushun Academy, so that the most ordinary soldiers can also know the characteristics of the enemy and the enemy.
Under such circumstances, hearing the explosion of two grenades and the cheers of the enemy, Tian Chenghe's subordinates, without exception, were all afraid. And Ye Changjun's morale was greatly boosted, and under the elimination of one and the other, the battle situation suddenly changed fundamentally.
Tian Chengsi secretly hated in his heart, he just shouted late!
Seeing that their side no longer had the will to fight, they turned around and fled, while the enemy army was full of morale, shouting to cover up, and Tian Chengsi spit out a mouthful of blood. His family is in the hands of An Lushan, and it is a dead end to go back after such a defeat, so he raised his sword and advanced instead of retreating, and shouted: "Zhuo Junfu, Tian Chenghei is here, can you dare to fight with me?" β
In the midst of a shout, although his voice was loud, it could not reach Zhuo Junfu's ears. Tian Chenghe's own soldiers had already lost their hearts, except for more than a dozen loyal ones who were still fighting with him, and the rest were defeated and retreated. In the blink of an eye, Tian Chengsi was surrounded by a group of Tang troops, and he shouted again, but in exchange for not Zhuo Junfu's response, but more Tang troops.
Almost in two breaths, Tian Chengsi was overwhelmed by a group of Tang troops.
He didn't know how many knives and guns he had been hit, his body fell from his horse, and before he could hit the ground, he was held down and cut off his head.
"I, Mo Jian, took Tian Chenghe's first achievement!" A Tang Jun raised Tian Chenghe's head and shouted.
"Tian Chengsi is dead, Tian Chengsi is dead!"
The voice of the Tang army suddenly changed, no longer saying that the grenadiers came to help, but that Tian Chengsi was dead. Hearing this cry, some of the rebels who dared to fight also lost their fears.
An unrestrained retreat is a slaughter.
And at this time of the battle, a white light had faintly appeared in the sky, and the figure of the road was about visible. Zhuo Junfu is not a person who accepts it when he sees it, he saw that the momentum of the great victory has been achieved, so he turned his head and sent someone to report the good news to Ye Chang, and he drove his troops to continue to chase.
This pursuit, from dawn to noon, chased out for more than 20 miles, not only the rout of Tian Chenghe's department, but also the two teams sent by An Lushan after Tian Chenghe, were also wrapped in the defeated army and defeated together.
By the time Zhuo Junfu had withdrawn his troops, it was already afternoon. While burying the pot and cooking, the Tang army boasted to each other about their achievements, and Zhuo Junfu also shouted happily and summoned the guards to congratulate each other with soup instead of wine. When it was warm, I heard someone say: "Dingchen, you have worked hard today!" β
Zhuo Junfu was originally sitting on a stone, but when he heard this voice, he immediately got up and saluted: "Lang Jun, why are you here!" β
"After hearing that you won a big victory, I chased after you, so I came to meet you, I never thought that you would fight such a beautiful victory!" Ye Chang couldn't hold back his joy: "I heard that Tian Chenghei was killed?" β
"Exactly, by the way, that Mo Jian, take out your treasure and show it to Lang Jun!"
A small soldier named Mo Jian triumphantly raised a first achievement, and after cutting off Tian Chenghe's head, he always took it with him, and even the commander asked him to sacrifice it, only saying that he wanted to sacrifice it to Ye Chang.
"This is Tian Chenghe?" Ye Chang looked at the bloodstained first achievement, and then looked at the little soldier: "I look at you a little bit...... You were a road builder? β
"Yes, Lang Jun, I applied as a road construction worker three years ago."
"Recognizable words?" Seeing his triumphant appearance, Ye Chang asked again.
"I learned it in night school, and now I can recognize more than 1,200 words! Arithmetic can do two-digit multiplication! β
Ye Chang's attention to road construction workers is well known to the world, and even some short-sighted people ridicule him, saying that he is not training road construction workers, but cultivating talents. Most of the road construction workers were the children of bankrupt peasants whose families were poor and had nothing to rely on, and Ye Chang taught them to read and write, and also required them to be extremely strict in discipline, and some of the bad habits they were contaminated with were removed from the roots.
To a certain extent, those who ridiculed Ye Chang were saying that Ye Chang's expectations for these road construction workers were not inferior to the expectations of later generations for Xiucai. They are the seeds cultivated by Ye Chang, and one day they will be sown and bear fruit in various parts of the Chinese territory.
"Okay, good, Tian Chenghe's first achievement is not a small feat, read more books, and then go to Lushun Academy to take the general course." Ye Chang patted Mo Jian's shoulder: "When the time comes, I will go to Lushun Academy to teach a little subject, and I will wait for you there!" β
Mo Jian was overjoyed when he heard this, puffed up his chest and said, "Don't worry, Lang Jun, I will definitely be admitted!" β
The companions next to him all looked at him with envy, and some people secretly muttered in their hearts, this guy is lucky, fast hands and feet, Tian Chenghe, who was killed by so many people together, grabbed the first result with his sharp eyes, and he actually got such a good life!
"Now you can hand over your baby, right?" The officer beside Mo Jian said with a smile.
With Ye Chang's approval, Mo Jian was finally willing to hand over his first result, and seeing him happily carrying his head to hand it over, Ye Chang couldn't help laughing.
"Tian Chenghei is dead, and An Lushan can't fight this battle." Turning around, Ye Chang said to Zhuo Junfu: "If An Lushan is smart, he should retire from the army at this time." β
The news soon came, and after learning that Tian Chengsi had been defeated and the battle line had been torn apart by Ye Chang, An Lushan finally made up his mind. He only left one to guard the palace of Wugong County, and the main force turned around and returned to Chang'an. Before his troops returned to Chang'an, Ye Chang's army wiped out the troops he left behind.
"It's worthy of Ye Gong!"
"It seems that His Majesty doesn't need to go to Shudi, as long as he stays in Yongxian County temporarily, and waits for a few days, he can return to Chang'an!"
After the news came, Yongxian County was jubilant. Li Longji's royal car is now here.
Originally, Li Longji was going to go to Shudi, but after the Pei Mian Rebellion, Li Longji no longer trusted those border generals who came to meet him, including Ge Shuhan, to ask for guilt, and he also left people behind but sent the soldiers to Ye Chang. How to avoid entering Shuzhong, he was still discussing with everyone, but he never thought that before the result of the discussion, Ye Chang had already repelled An Lushan.
Hearing everyone boast about Ye Chang like this, although Li Longji smiled, his expression was a little lonely.
His sadness is inevitable, the news from Chang'an City, An Lushan slaughtered the clan, it can be said that there is no one in ten, he had dozens of children, except for a few who escaped from the city by chaos, almost all of them were killed by An Lushan. The remaining few people also have an excellent relationship with Li Heng, but they are relatively cold to his father. Although the heavenly family is ruthless, and he doesn't have much friendship with his children, this kind of fate still makes him feel cold.
What bothered him even more was the issue of the heir.
He was in good health, and the successive blows did not make him collapse, but he himself knew that there was something wrong with his body, and even if he could hold out for a few more years, he would not be able to perform his duties as the Son of Heaven well after all. Who is the crown prince and inherits the Tang Dynasty is a big question. If Ye Chang is his son, then naturally everything is easy to say, and it is logical to inherit the throne, but Ye Chang is not a prince, and there is no son around him who can convince the public, if this continues, the lord is weak and the minister is strong, even if Ye Chang has no intention of rebelling, it is not a long-term plan for the monarch and minister.
Now he doesn't have much doubt about Ye Chang's loyalty, but he can't help but think about the future situation.
"Your Majesty, if Ye Gong recovers Chang'an, what reward should he receive?" He was thinking about it, but he heard someone talking.
It was Wei Jiansu who spoke, and he, the temporary prime minister, deserved to be quite tasteful, so he naturally wanted to be in office for a long time. But now in this situation, Ye Chang must be in the phase, as for whether he is alone or with him, it is still up to discussion. Now seeing Li Longji's joy, he raised this question, not so much how to reward Ye Chang, but to explore Li Longji's tone and how to arrange himself at that time.
"I want to crown Ye Chang as the prince." Li Longji said slowly: "Above the kings." β
Everyone's conversation and laughter suddenly stopped, and they were stunned.
The first thing that everyone thinks of is that when the Tang Dynasty was first established, Du Fuwei was named the king of Wu, but its evening was bleak, and he died by "mistakenly" taking the medicine stone, and was accused of rebellion after his death.
It's not that the generals are thinking nonsense, but that Li Longji suddenly wants to crown Ye Chang as the prince, which makes everyone have to think so. You must know that Li Longji still had a lot of suspicions about Ye Chang before.
Seeing that everyone was cold, Li Longji said slowly: "I'm thinking, should I make him the acting king or the king of Liao, and take Liaodong as a fief, and then take Yunnan as the dowry of Shou'an?" β
Everyone looked at each other, if they really regarded Ye Chang as Du Fuwei, they should detain him in Beijing and prevent him from returning to the old land. But judging from Li Longji's tone, not only did he not want to keep Ye Chang in Beijing, but he also had the heart to let Ye Chang do it.
"This matter should be judged by His Majesty, Ye Gonggong is great, and Lingyan Pavilion should have its image!"
Wei Jiansu reacted quickly this time, and he spoke.
"That's nature...... The work of putting things in order,......" Li Longji muttered, "You can start planning for your return to Beijing." β
After finishing speaking, he waved his sleeves and motioned for everyone to retreat, and after everyone left, he looked at Gao Lishi and Chen Xuanli around him, and said with a wry smile: "If it was in ancient times, I should have given in." β
"Why did Your Majesty say this, Your Majesty's words came out, but they wanted to force Ye Chang to rebel!" Gao Lishi was shocked, knelt down on the ground and said: "Ye Chang's loyalty to His Majesty can be seen every day, and His Majesty's simplicity is also the grace of heaven, why did His Majesty say this!" β
Hearing Gao Lishi's incoherent words, Chen Xuanli looked at his nose, nose, mouth, and heart, but he didn't say a word.
Since Ma Wei's change, although Li Longji still trusts him, Chen Xuanli feels uncomfortable. He did use Ma Wei's change to put all the blame on the dead ghost Yang Guozhong, but those calculations frightened Li Longji after all. Even if Li Longji didn't realize at that time that he was the mastermind behind the mutinous forbidden army, he would have understood it a long time ago.
Therefore, the only thing Chen Xuanli wants at the moment is that Li Longji should not pursue his old mistakes.
"Rise up, get up, I mean this...... I lost my morality, so the sons are not good, either unfilial and disloyal people like Li Heng, or people with great ambitions and talents like King Yong. Ye Chang has contributed to the community, such as Yu controlling the water and having the world, that is also a matter of course......"
Chen Xuanli sneered in his heart, Li Longji said that it was natural, but he must not think like this in his heart, otherwise he should have issued an edict publicly, instead of just nagging at the two of them.
"Your Majesty still has heirs, just choose his sage, Ye Gong will devote himself to assisting, the king is not jealous of the ministers, and the ministers do not betray the king." Gao Lishi said earnestly: "Your Majesty, the country is in this difficulty, it is the time for Your Majesty to make progress!" β
"Over the years, I have relied too much on Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong, and I can no longer be diligent and promising." Li Longji sighed and said: "Since ancient times, only Zhuge Liang can be compared with Ye Chang, if something happens to me, I will also leave a will, if the descendants can be supplemented, then Ye Chang will be assisted, if the descendants are not good, then Ye Chang will replace them!" β
Speaking of which, Chen Xuanli could only say a few words of persuasion. At the beginning, he and Gao Lishi both felt that this was Li Longji's hypocrisy again, but after persuading for a while, they found that although Li Longji was a little sad, he looked serious, and it seemed that what he said was sincere!
Seeing him like this, Gao Lishi could only divert the topic: "The thieves were defeated, and I think that the towns in the world will not continue to wait and see, but after this battle, Gyeonggi is ruined, the people are in trouble, and the sage still has to think about how to help the people get through the difficulties." β
"This matter is handled by the prime minister, but I will be ruled by the arch." Li Longji smiled bitterly: "In the past, when I could govern the country, I trusted Li Longji and Yang Guozhong, but now I am decayed, and God does not keep his mind to govern the country, but there are a lot of things......"
Seeing that he became sad again, a hint of foreboding flashed in Gao Lishi's heart, he glanced at Chen Xuanli, and found that this guy began to pretend to be dumb again, and he was slightly annoyed in his heart, and immediately said: "Sage, why don't you invite Princess Yuzhen and Princess Shou'an to accompany the sage to talk?" β
Li Longji nodded, and was about to summon the two daughters, but at this moment, there was a joyful voice outside: "Dugu Ming, Yang said to see Your Majesty!" β
Hearing these two people, Li Longji was immediately overjoyed: "Hurry up, let them in!" β
