"It is both a blessing and a blessing to all things. The mirror can identify the shape, the treasure chai can show off the head, the good fragrance can be fussy, and the suqin can entertain the ears. * Attentive, out of hope. If it is not the thickness of abundance, who is willing to do it!

Every time I think of this, I toss and turn. Haidong farewell, until more than a year. The years are easy to move, and the mountains and rivers are separated. Since last autumn, concubines have often lost something. Nagato is lonely, and the night is like a year. Yongxiang is heavy, and there is no sun. Yesterday, I recited "Yuefu", and I saw a saying: 'Side force, read the king Wuji.' 'The paper is sad, and the love can't be declared. Treasure, cherish! ”

The letterhead was now laid flat on the heavy mahogany table.

Dunshe watched it three times in a row from beginning to end.

The texture of the letterhead is Korean white paper, which is made of cotton and cocoon, and the color is as white as silk and flexible as silk. The person who wrote the letter has a good hand, the whole article is in small letters, and the faint ink marks are half infiltrated into the paper, the font is beautiful, the ink is cute, and there is no charm. And this paper is smoked by sandalwood, and the dark fragrance is fragrant, and it fills the room. After reading it, although I don't say that I am articulate, I still have a lingering fragrance.

This letter was sent by Mrs. Wang of Shandong.

Deng She had received a secret report from Li Shousheng earlier, and knew that she was approaching her birthday, so he specially selected a few valuable gifts and sent them over to congratulate her. The four kinds of "Spiegel, Baochai, Haoxiang, and Suqin" mentioned in Mrs. Wang's letter are several of the various gifts she gave him.

The meaning of the phrase "both the good and the good" is to say: "You have given me good news and all kinds of gifts." I can use the mirror to look at my face, I can decorate my posture with Baochai, I can use it to dye my body with good incense, and I can entertain myself when I am lonely. Your kindness to me has been beyond my expectations. If the kindness is not particularly rich, who would think so well for me?

The content of these sentences is not too difficult to understand. Deng She has also read a lot of books, and he can understand it as much as he can. It's just that the eight words "side force, reading Jun Wuji" are a little difficult to understand and difficult to understand. "Nian Jun Wuji" is good to say, I miss you to an infinite extent, that is to say, I miss you immensely. But what does "lateral force" mean? Isn't that also the meaning of tossing and turning?

It's early afternoon. At the end of May, the weather was already hot, there was no wind, and the green trees in the courtyard were stretched out in the bright sunshine. There was no one in the courtyard, it was quiet. Deng She thought for a long time, but had no clue. Suddenly, I heard a footstep, light and fast, but it was Bi Qianniu who came to say, "Mr. Yao asks to see." ”

"Oh? Please. Deng She hurriedly put away the letterhead, sat upright, and invited Yao Haogu to come in.

Not long after, Yao Haogu will come in. But I saw that he was neatly dressed, meticulously dressed, and a layer of shiny fine sweat on his forehead.

He was in a hurry all the way, panting, he had seen Deng She, he didn't have time to speak, he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, grabbed the fan on the table on the side and shook it violently. Deng She smiled: "July is a fire." It's only May, is the gentleman so hot? ......, come here, take two bottles of She'er and don't come, and quench your thirst with Mr. ”

Yao Haogu rested for a moment, adjusted his breath evenly, and said with a happy brow: "The minister has good news, report to the lord." ”

"What?"

"General Yang has entered Hanyang Mansion, and the beauties of Hanyang Mansion have descended."

Deng She Huoran got up and said, "Sure enough? Has it been implemented? ”

"Not at all. The beauty clan and important ministers of Hanyang Mansion signed their names, and half an hour ago, the book was sent to the province with good news. The minister was in the Imperial Historical Observatory at the time, and after learning about it, he reviewed it and immediately rushed to report it to the lord. Yao Haogu shook his sleeves, took out two documents, and handed them to Deng She.

Deng She unfolded it to watch, isn't it the letter of the beauty of Hanyang Mansion and the good news of Zhao Guo!

It's a long story, with the end of the Shenyang War and the Chahannaoer War, Liaodong can be said to have been largely pacified, and there is no need to be distracted by external troubles. As soon as Deng She's return to Pyongyang, he concentrated his efforts on launching a general assault on South Goryeo and at the same time set about cleaning up the beauties of Hanyang Province.

Half a month ago, the main force of the Li army obeyed Wang Qi's edict to persuade him to surrender, and the whole army surrendered. As a result, Wen Huaguo and Monk Li were able to free up their hands and join forces in one place, and the wind and clouds were also like a storm, and the southern Goryeo counties north of Wangjing were wiped out, and all those who resisted were wiped out. Tens of thousands of troops arrived in the Wangjing area one after another.

Subsequently, the forward of Yang Wanhu's department was ordered to go first, holding Wang Qi's royal decree in one hand and wielding a big stick of spear in the other, protruding hundreds of miles away and approaching Hanyang Mansion. ——After Yang Wanhu returned to Pyongyang to report to Deng She, he rested for a few days before returning to the front line.

In Hanyang Mansion, there were many clans and ministers of the beautiful people, and there was no general who could fight, so more than 10,000 people were temporarily recruited, forcibly pulled into the army, and hurriedly responded to the battle. Yang Wanhu won three battles and three victories, but because his army and horses were too few to conquer the city, he temporarily stopped the city, and while waiting for Zhao Guo's main force, he announced Haidong's ultimatum to Hanyang Mansion.

Dunshe's rhetoric was strong. And take out Wang Qi's will, indicating that if they refuse to surrender, then they are chaotic ministers and thieves, with bad intentions, and everyone will be punished. and threatened some of them with their families in Wang Jing. In short, it is "those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me perish". If you are willing to surrender, you will not lose your glory and wealth. If they resist, they will be slaughtered.

This ultimatum is the handwriting of Hong Jixun, condescending, unceremonious, and murderous.

The beauties and important ministers of Hanyang Mansion are either from the clan or from the two classes of families that eat Zhongming. Since childhood, how have you ever experienced such a battle? At the beginning, Wang Jingpo was exaggerated, and one race was the other. Now that the soldiers are coming to the city, they are not only hesitant, but they are almost crying.

First two clans changed their minds. The two of them, who had been the most active supporters of the new Lord at first, were now the most active supporters of surrender. Someone opened this opening, and the things at the bottom were logical, and the Goryeo ministers of Hanyang Mansion were all "looking at the horse's head".

Occasionally, those who are unyielding and resolutely refuse to surrender are like small stones thrown into the sea, which can't make the slightest ripple at all, and no one pays attention to them at all. Yang Wanhu besieged the city for three days, and without waiting for Zhao Guo's main force to arrive, Hanyang Mansion surrendered. The city is full of civil and military, hundreds of people above the fifth grade, and more than ten princes of the clan, all of whom go out of the city in white clothes, kneel on both sides of the city gate, and welcome the sea and the east army. On both sides of the streets of the city, the people put out incense tables to show their obedience.

Yang Wanhu obeyed Zhao Guo's orders, although he strictly enforced military discipline and forbade the tyrannical plundering of the people, he inevitably had arrogance in dealing with the Goryeo ministers who surrendered.

Zhu Zi Guichen in the past, now he has become a person who has lost the country, and his fate hangs in the hands of others. In order to avoid humiliation and save their lives, they offered their jewels. Yang Wanhu did not refuse to come, and in one day, he got dozens of boxes of jewelry, worth tens of millions. Despite this, the slightest offense by the Goryeo subordinates, he still flogged them mercilessly.

Yang Wanhu had something strange left and right, and admonished: "The general is so wealthy, isn't he afraid that the lord will know?" What's more, since he was bribed by the Goryeo ministers, why did he still whip endlessly? ”

Yang Wanhu replied: "We have experienced many wars in the east of the sea, and the treasury is empty. The beauty comes with her own money, why don't I? If I don't accept it, my lord will be generous, and he won't accept it. Cheap beauty for nothing. When I return to Pyongyang, I will hand over all the money I have obtained to my lord, so why should I be afraid that my lord will know? As for punishing the beauty, if you don't show it, how can you show the benevolence of the lord? Good people, the lord is the lord; Bad guys, I'll do it myself. ”

Left and right in awe. Unexpectedly, Yang Wanhu and a brave man could have such a mind.

Hanyang Mansion surrendered, committed suicide to martyrdom, three people.

After reading the letter of Hanyang Mansion and Zhao Guo's good news, Deng She was overjoyed, but couldn't help but feel a little desolate for Wang Qi. Goryeo has been established for hundreds of years, and it has always been courteous to two classes, giving preferential treatment to scholars, but when the country is broken, there are only three people who are willing to commit suicide. Even if you break Wang Jing to commit suicide and martyrdom last time, there are less than twenty of them combined.

He glanced at Yao Haogu and sighed: "Kong said to be benevolent, and Meng said to take righteousness." It's a pity. I couldn't help but think of Pan Cheng's staff member Pan Xianer, shook his head, and said, "Scholar, scholar!" ”

Yao Hao said: "All countries will die, and people's hearts will leave." It is a generous and sad song, and most of them began in the new dynasty. Greedy for life and afraid of death, often when the country is broken. This is also the Lord's obedience to heaven's command. If the mandate of heaven is there, the country will prosper; If the destiny is lost, the country will perish. What is the destiny of heaven? Mencius said: The people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light. ”

The fact that the Goryeo courtiers surrendered more and died less, more bent the knees, and few were loyal was in front of him, and Yao Haogu had nothing to argue about. To be honest, he also looked down on those Goryeo vassals. But in what Deng She said, there was a faint contempt for the discipline of scholars, and as a Confucian student, he could not remain silent.

He also had the wit to explain the reason for the surrender of the Goryeo ministers to the Mandate of Heaven. Of course, this is a quibble, but his further extension of the Mandate of Heaven,—— the view that the people are the Mandate of Heaven, won the heart of Deng She, and Deng She deeply thought so. He laughed, nodded Yao Haogu twice, and said no more.

Previously, the main force of the Li-yeo army on the Eastern Front had surrendered, and Goryeo had since lost the basis for an organized military resistance. Now the surrender of Hanyang Province is tantamount to causing Goryeo to lose the basis for organized political resistance. Without these two foundations, South Goryeo would no longer have the strength to resist. The Haidong Campaign, which lasted for several months, finally came to an end.

Soon after the surrender of Hanyang Province, Jeolla and Gyeongsang provinces on the southern coast of Goryeo also surrendered one after another. Deng She recalled Wen Huaguo, Zhao Guo, Yang Wanhu and others, and reappointed Qing Qianxing as the commander-in-chief, supplemented by Monk Li, responsible for taking over the city defense of the cities of South Goryeo. All the castles of South Goryeo, including Wangjing and Hanyang, were torn down the city walls. Trebuchets, crossbows, and other highly lethal military equipment were all returned to the province. If there are still counties and counties that are obsessed and dare to rebel, they will all be exterminated.

and sent nearly 100 Liaodong officials who had been selected and prepared long ago, and at the same time rushed to South Goryeo, one by one, to check the household registers and maps of each county, make a unified record, and report to the province; Second, he will stay in office on the spot and prepare for the next step of the transfer of officials from the south to the north.

In addition, due to the death of Shiro Nagano, the Matsuura Party of Ikishima has recently fought back. In accordance with the predetermined plan, the Haidong Navy Division contracted the whole line, focusing on the defense of Jianghua Island, and patrolled day and night. The Songpo Party saw its great strength and was heavily guarded, and did not dare to go deep alone, but instead wantonly invaded the coastal areas of South Goryeo, occupying some prefectures and counties.

In response to this situation, Dunshe adopted a defensive-based countermeasure.

On the one hand, he ordered Qing Qianxing and Monk Li to wait for an opportunity to exterminate them and expel them from the sea; On the other hand, he ordered the inhabitants of the coastal prefectures and counties to retreat inland, empty the coastal zone, and make way for a 30-mile-wide no-man's land. Of course, no man's land does not mean giving up, and the harassment of the Japanese people can be ignored, and if they dare to build barriers in the no man's land, Haidong will definitely crack down on them immediately.

At the same time, the walls of the coastal states and counties can be increased and thickened without being torn down, depending on the situation.

Judging from the current coastal situation, the Tamna and other islands he promised to Tojiro will definitely not be realized for the time being, and can only be put into action after the counterattack of the Matsuura Party on Iki Island has subsided a little. As compensation, Deng Shehou generously rewarded Tojiro and first allocated him two other small islands, allowing him to recruit his own Japanese people and cultivate them as a territory.

Tengjiro is now the wing marshal of the Jianghua Naval Army, with hundreds of ships in charge and thousands of naval troops, and his position is prominent, and he is deeply used by Deng She. Haidong Wenwu looked at him differently. He went in and out of South Goryeo, and the natives of South Goryeo were even more respectful to him, treating him as a celestial man and not daring to look up. The nobles and rich families of South Goryeo, he drove them like slaves. He is a widow, an outlaw, how can he ever enjoy such treatment?

He was very satisfied. There is no complaint about Deng She's arrangement, and he is obedient.

"Even if he is dissatisfied, what can he do?" Yao Haogu said with a smile, "From the day he killed Shiro Nagano, the Matsuura Party on Iki Island began to regard him as an enemy. Our sailor annexed Shiro Nagano and many Japanese bandits, and his strength was not enough to confront the Matsuura Party. And what about him? If he didn't have the protection of the lord, he was afraid that he wouldn't even have an island to settle on! The ministers have heard the words, the temperament of the Japanese people, greedy and shameless, small and ignorant, it is true that they do not deceive. ”

"Wen Zuocheng, Zhao Vice Shu, Yang Tongtong and others triumphed today. The gentleman may go out of the city with me to meet him. "Months of military use, one day. For the first time in more than half a month, Deng She showed a heartfelt smile.

Yao Haogu couldn't help but be happy and excited, bowed down, and said, "Dare not obey orders?" ”

The two went out hand in hand, bringing the civil and military officials above the third grade in the city, and they galloped away from the city. After waiting for a while, I saw the banner covering the sky from afar, Wen Huaguo, Zhao Guo, Yang Wanhu and other victorious heroes, more than 10,000 people lined up in a neat phalanx, wearing red robes, all over the field, playing triumphant songs, high morale, appeared in the sight of everyone.

Wen Huaguo and others have been fighting for many months, but their spirits are very good.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and the generals drive their horses to gallop, gallop to the front, and turn over and jump down one after another. Led by Wen Huaguo, dozens of generals fell to the ground. Deng She personally picked up Wen Huaguo, Zhao Guo, Yang Wanhu, etc., and said with a smile: "You have made meritorious contributions to the battle and expanded the territory for my Haidong." Today's triumph is celebrated by the province. The princes have been fighting for months, and they have worked hard, which can be said to be a high achievement. Hurry up, please. ”

He was thirty miles away from the city to greet him, and he didn't have time to ask about the war when he met, he worked hard first, his words were courteous, and Wen Huaguo and others were grateful, and he paused: "How dare you work hard to welcome the lord from afar?" Although the last general and so on are smeared with liver and brain, they cannot report it. ”

Deng She took Wen Huaguo's mount, invited him to get on the horse, pulled Zhao Guo and Yang Wanhu, and the group walked side by side, slowly returning to the city.

The city is full of lights, gongs and drums, and it is very lively.

Walking in the crowd of people celebrating the people, Deng She talked with Wen Huaguo and others, talked about the war, the heroic place was agitated, the tragic place was sad, or when it came to the great victory, he liked it.

Wen Huaguo and the others couldn't help but ask about the situation in Liaodong, and Deng She said: "You have returned to the city in triumph, and the time is just right. Liaodong has been pacified. Chen Tongzhi sent a document a few days ago, saying that the Liaoyang Provincial Government had also been repaired and built, and he planned to move the provincial government in the next few days. With the power of your great victory, the relocation of the province is even more joyful. ”

Yao Haogu made fun and said: "Not only is it joyful, the triumph of the princes, but also a big start to our relocation to the province." ”

The crowd laughed in unison. That night, Deng She invited the generals to a banquet and dispersed happily.

When it came to the dismissal, Deng She had a little wine, and suddenly remembered the letter from Mrs. Wang a few days ago, grabbed Yao Haogu, and asked, "Dare to ask Mr., what do you mean by the side force?" ”

Yao Haogu was also drunk, he didn't think about it, and said: "'Side force, Nian Jun Wuji. Pillow Lang's left arm, turn to the side with Lang. This folk song of North Korea's humble times is also called "Song of Earth Driving Music". 'Side force, thinking of the king without extreme', extremely lovesick. 'Lateral force', onomatopoeia also, describes sighing. ”

"'Pillow Lang's left arm, turn to the side with Lang', what does it mean?"

"'Pillow Lang's left arm, turn to the side with Lang', mimicry also. The woman pillows Lang's left arm, and flips as Lang turns to the side. It is a state of happiness between men and women. Speaking of this, Yao Haogu couldn't help but wonder and asked, "How did the lord know about this folk song?" Why did you suddenly remember to ask this? ”

Deng She was surprised, it turned out that there were two sentences after the 'side force', which actually meant like this. Of course, he won't tell the truth, and said: "When I read last night, I saw this sentence, and I didn't understand its meaning, so I asked." ”

I have never seen Deng She read a book like "Yuefu", and Yao Haogu will certainly not believe his answer. He was meaningful and said: "Prime Minister, the minister has a word, I have to say it." Too much desire and excessive dreaming can easily cause bad health. ”

"Sir, please come back. I need to calm down. ”
