Since entering the end of July, the weather forecast that has been out of order for more than a month is finally accurate, as long as there is rain reported every day, God especially gives face, the rain is loud, and today's total solar eclipse is not to be seen. Without further ado, please add a collection to the big ones who read the book! )
On August 26, the 21st year of Zhenyuan, Gao Chongwen, the commander of the original Shence army who had just been summoned from Xia Sui Town, was cordially received by the Tang Emperor Li Yu in the Zichen Palace. With the soldiers and horses of the Beijing West Battalion, Li Yuanyi commanded the headquarters of 3,000 soldiers and horses, and returned to Gao Chongwen's control. and rewarded Gao Chongwen and the soldiers of his department.
On the same day, Li Yu issued a secret edict, ordering Yan Li, the envoy of Shannan Xidao Jiedu, and Li Kang, the envoy of Jiannan Dongchuan Jiedu, to be the left wing, and the army would enter Sichuan to fight Liu Pi.
On the second day of the first month of September, after five days of recuperation, Gao Chongwen's army swore to march in Meixian County, and Li Yu personally went to the camp to express condolences and present the flag. Early in the morning, the Changwu army began to cook in the barracks. Then there was the orderly dismantling of the camp. At the end of the day, with the rumbling drums, 5,000 soldiers dressed in light armor and armed with swords gathered in the school field. The wind and the sun are beautiful, the blue sky is floating with wisps of idle clouds, the military flag is stretched, and the guns are like forests, so that Li Yu, who is wearing gold armor to attend the departure ceremony, can't help but want to write poems. Looking at the 5,000 soldiers in front of him, facing the 5,000 soldiers with bright armor, Li Yu raised the wine bowl, and after respecting the heavens and the earth, he saluted the soldiers of the three armies, and said luck:
"The sky is high and the clouds are light, looking at the southern flying geese, and not being a hero if you don't reach the Great Wall. I said that the soldiers of the Changwu Army are real heroes who have repeatedly defeated thieves and thieves on the border! Do you approve of it? ”
"Yes! Approve! Approve! ”
"A real hero, protect the family and defend the country, there is something going on in the south today, I need my good sons and daughters of the Tang Dynasty to quell the rebellion for the Tang Dynasty and catch the traitors of the troubled country, are the sons and daughters of the Changwu Army heroes?"
"Yes! Be! Be! ”
"Can you put down the rebellion in one go?"
"Yes! Yes! Yes! ”
"Good! The monarchs worked hard to kill the thieves, but all those who were meritorious, regardless of whether they were high or low, the court did not hesitate to reward thousands of households. I hereby respect my good son of the Tang Dynasty! ”
With that, Li Yu drained a bowl of wine. The mood of the soldiers was also at the extreme, and they shouted:
"Hooray! Banzai! Banzai! ”
Li Yu was also infected by the emotions of the soldiers, threw the bowl to the ground, and said:
"When the army returns from counterinsurgency, I will respect you again!"
Gao Chongwen soldiers in Meixian five days, every day the court has a reward, there are officials deep into the army to care about the soldiers' suffering, the first night of the first day of September, the emperor is to the army and the soldiers to eat and sleep, many soldiers see the emperor so approachable, the soldiers, can not help but shed tears, so the morale is extremely high, heard the emperor said, but the three armies are happy, shouting long live again.
Then Du Huangshang stepped forward and said:
"Your Majesty, it's time for the army to go on the march!"
When Gao Chongwen heard this, he stepped forward and clenched his fists:
"Your Majesty, with armor on your body, please forgive the old minister for not being able to be a full courtier. I'm a 5,000-strong soldier with a long army, to get rid of the stubbornness of His Majesty's court, and to settle down for the people of Limin, ready to go, please show your Majesty! ”
Li Yu waved the sleeve of his robe with his big hand and said loudly:
"Expedition!"
"Yes!"
Gao Chongwen turned around and came to the front of the army, led the general Zuo to turn over and get on the horse, and led the soldiers of the three armies to salute the emperor. After that, Gao Xiayu led the headquarters of 800 people to drive forward, and drove first, Gao Chongwen led the rest of the 4,000 paces to ride after, and a team passed in front of the point general, and Li Yu pulled out his sword and erected it to show respect for the soldiers. In the afternoon of the same day, Gao Chongwen's army marched into the valley. On the same day, Li Yuanyi led the army from Fengtian to Luogu to Hanzhong, and on the third day, his troops entered Luogu.
On the platform, the soldiers had already left, and Li Yu was still holding the sword in his hand, staring at the direction where Gao Chongwen's army was gone. Du Huangshang said softly:
"Your Majesty, the army is gone."
Li Yu inserted the sword back into the scabbard and said with a smile:
"Lifting for so long at a time, my hands are sore, and my neck is stiff."
The ministers behind them all laughed. Lu Zhen smiled:
"Your Majesty's generosity, not less than that year!"
"Yes, 'the sky is high and the clouds are light, looking at the south flying geese, not to the Great Wall is not a hero', not a poem but a poetic charm, straightforward and easy to understand, the realm is open, and impassioned, chasing Jian'an, very stylish. Don't talk about the soldiers, even the old ministers are enthusiastic when they hear it, there is such a good sentence, why worry about Liu Bi's clown? ”
Quan Deyu joked on the side. Other ministers also praised each other. Listening to Li Chen, since arriving in the Tang Dynasty, Li Chen, who has always regarded himself as a good liberal arts, has fallen into an extreme inferiority complex, and the meeting quoted Su Shi in front of Lu Zhen "I don't know the true face of Lushan" and finally came out of the limelight, "I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain" has become a popular phrase in Chang'an, I think this time the limelight will not lose to the last time, and I feel even more happy. Heart: Mao Dada's words chased Su Xin directly, swallowing mountains and rivers, can it be bad? At the moment, the poetry was flourishing, and he chanted:
The sky is high and the clouds are light,
Look at the southern flying geese.
If you don't reach the Great Wall, you are not a hero,
This trip is 20,000.
The peak of Zhongnan Mountain,
The flag swept through the west wind.
Today the long tassel is in hand,
When to tie up the dragon?
After the whole word was sung, there was another round of applause. If Li Yu was still ashamed of pirating Su Shi's poems at the beginning, he now doesn't know what blushing is. Just as Li Yu was self-absorbed, Wei Zhiyi on the side asked:
"Your Majesty, what kind of ancient style is this? But it rhymes like this, but the ministers don't know. ”
In the Tang Dynasty, the poetry completed the rhythmization and formed a new poetic style, which rhymed neatly in form, which was called the rhythmic poem, which was different from the previous ancient style poems, and was also called the near-style poem. Rhythmic poems are divided into quatrains and rhythmic poems, and Li Chenyin's poem is not neat in form, but it has its own rhythmic beauty, and those here are all great experts in poetry, so Wei Zhiyi has such a question.
"This? This is not an archaic style, I call it long and short sentences••••••"
A new genre of poetry was born, and its appearance brought a fresh breeze to the large garden of Tang poetry•••••
This is the description of this scene in later generations, and it is also a scene that later generations of poetry lovers and fans of Li Yu talked about, although literary historians have always been puzzled by the sudden appearance of such a masterpiece that shook the ages without mature soil. However, everyone present at the time obviously did not realize that they had witnessed a great moment, and everyone's thoughts were still on the government. Du Huangshang suggested at the time:
"Your Majesty is requested to give this long and short sentence to Gao Chongwen to motivate the soldiers to ••••••"
Li Yu naturally did not mention it. When he drove to the car, Li Yu asked again:
"Where is Li Yan now?"
Wang Shaodao, the secretary of the military department:
"Your Majesty, Li Yan has been away from Beijing for ten days, and he should be about to arrive in Xiazhou."
Li Yan is the general of the right Xiaowei, after Han Quanyi entered the court, he set up his nephew Yang Huilin to stay after the festival, and the often defeated general was also embarrassed to stay after the festival, which made many ministers laugh and lose their big teeth, and naturally no one took this queen seriously, since it was the queen, the court naturally wanted to appoint a new festival envoy, and the court proposed Li Yan to go to Xia Sui to serve as the festival envoy, and Li Yan asked about it.
