Vol. 3 Heroes Silent Heaven and Earth Old 43 Heroes I.
Today in History:
In 1930, on February 20, the cultural relics unearthed in Yinxu in Anyang, Henan Province attracted the attention of the world.
——
Deng She didn't stay, the big thing is important, how can he indulge in the love of his children? For three days he went first to see the ships that had been made; then inspected the surrounding cities and counties, and dealt with some official duties that had to be nodded by him; On the fourth day, Zhang Ji'er made up a list and plan, and Deng She revised some parts and approved the implementation.
It's getting colder and colder, and the natives of the Twin Cities say that it often starts to snow in October; Once the snow falls, it is not conducive to the march. If you want to transfer troops, you have to hurry. Deng She went down to the barracks and met with the battalion generals included in the list one by one, so that he could encourage them; At the same time, we urged the localities to send out all kinds of military supplies for the winter in advance.
On the sixth day, the troops stationed outside the twin cities came to help them, and they set up camp and set up camps, and marched to Jiashan and the cities in the northeast.
Wenhuaguo, on the southern front, also received a military order, ordering him to dismiss his troops and return to their original station. The Twin Cities Rebellion was put down, the Goryeo people still needed to be guarded, and Pyongyang and other places had a heavy responsibility, so Deng Shete specially instructed him not to come back, just go directly to Pyongyang.
All kinds of complicated and trivial affairs have been busy for more than ten days before they come to an end temporarily.
During this period, there was an endless stream of military reports about Liaoyang. The Liaoyang city wall has collapsed in a small area two or three times, and listening to the narrative of the sentinels, it has really reached a critical juncture of survival. Although Guan Duo did not dismantle his armor, he ate and stayed in the city tower day and night, personally supervised the battle, and personally went into battle; However, many soldiers in the city were killed, and even with the assistance of Mao Jujing outside the city, I am afraid that they will not be able to hold out for too long.
……
On the city of Liaoyang, the black clouds are overwhelming, and the army is besieged.
"What did Pan Cheng say there?"
Guan Duo's face was haggard, and his lips were chapped; Armed with a spear, he looked down from the battlements of the city wall at the heavily encamped Yuan army beneath the city. He hadn't had a hot meal or a good night's sleep in days. Although it is not spring and summer, there will be lice in the armor, but he is old after all, and he wears more than ten or twenty pounds of armor all day long, which is difficult to eat.
One of his subordinates raised his head, carefully looked at his face, and did not dare to answer.
"Say!"
"The last general sent messengers thirteen times, and six times they sent letters. The most recent one was yesterday, Pan Pingzhang said,...... Pan Pingzhang said,...... "The subordinate gritted his teeth and said hatefully," he said that when the soldiers were under the city of Guangning, he was powerless, and he was really powerless to come back to help. Only a few thousand more people were dispatched, including less than 10,000 people sent before, and they were stationed twenty miles west of Liaoyang City. ”
"Thinking about the overseers coming to Guangning? How long has it been? It's been almost a month! Did you do it? Attacked Quang Ninh? The Tartars are clearly cowardly, and they are forcing each other in vain! He Pan Cheng, the son of a bastard! Another general scolded, and turned to Guan Duo and said, "My lord, Pan Cheng will not save him when he sees death, and he clearly wants to reap the benefits of the fisherman,......
Guan Duo waved his hand and said, "If you want to say that Pan Cheng is brave and blind, it is true; Sitting on the fisherman's profits, this is not necessarily. He didn't come to the rescue for a long time, just because he was afraid that he would save me Liaoyang and lose him Guangning. Didn't he think about it? The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, if I lose Liaoyang, how can he Guangning be saved. ”
This truth is also written in the previous emergency documents, and the end will follow the will of the adult. But Pan Cheng was still indifferent. ”
Guan Duo carried the barrel of the gun, dragged his injured leg and walked two steps, and after standing for a long time, his feet were cold and numb. He stretched out his hand and rubbed his injured leg twice, faintly aching, and he asked, "How is Mao Jujing?" ”
"Mao Shuai raided several times in a row, but Naha was very tightly guarded, and a group of men and horses were specially assigned to block it. Although five or six Tartar camps have been broken in total, at the moment, if there is no miracle plan, let alone defeat Naha; Even rendezvous with my city will not work in a short time. ”
Mao Jujing has 40,000 or 50,000 people, and Naha has more than 200,000 people. Under the same terrain, the defensive ones are more advantageous than the attacking ones, not to mention that Naha has been prepared early, and the battalion is strong, counting on the battalion to break and advance step by step, I don't know when it will be.
The black clouds crushed the city and wanted to destroy it, Guan Duo pursed his lips, retracted his gaze from the Yuan army, looked up at the sky, the cold wind blew through his armor, and he said, "Is it going to snow?" ”
After several years of crisscrossing Hebei, Saiwai, and Liaodong, how could Guan Duo have ever thought that he would actually fall into today's situation? recalled that more than a month ago, when the Gaizhou War was launched, he was still so high-spirited; In the blink of an eye, he faced defeat and death. Counting the roots, who is the culprit?
But he doesn't regret his private connection with Naha. The big husband acts, and he does it; Wrong is wrong. Eat a trench, grow a wisdom, after this hurdle, come again next time. Complaining, beating her chest, heartbreaking, and regretting are just women's attitudes.
He did not deceive Naha, but was deceived by Nahaout; Well, he admits that Naha is a good player, and he admits that he underestimated Naha. So what? Who has been a great thing since ancient times, who can be smooth sailing? Liu Bei was defeated several times, and he was in a hurry like a wild dog; Henkel raised his troops, and when he was embarrassed, he got off the car twice with a fader. Even Tang Taizong, who is famous for thousands of years, has not had a bridge alliance?
Guan Duo looked up at the sky, and the various glorious achievements of his ancestors and sages kept spinning in his chest. He was full of pride, inch by inch, and he grew in the wind, he laughed and chanted in a low voice: "The famous general of Yuntai should be listed, and the red spirit fire is bright in the sky." ”
The two sentences he recited were a poem of the immortals at that time, which was widely circulated. The previous sentence is about the 28 generals of Yuntai in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it is rumored that they are all on the stars, which means that God is destined to be heroes; The latter sentence talks about the Western Han Dynasty's use of fire as virtue, which alluded to the Red Turban Uprising, which is also Guihong.
The generals have heard this poem many times. There are many believers in the immortals, and even those who read poetry and literature are also believers, not to mention the generals. Guan Duo smiled and pointed, and said, "Ten years later, Yuntai Twenty-eight Nights, there are no characters among you. and keep in mind today's setbacks; At that point, let's talk about the wine again! ”
When everyone heard this, their spirits were lifted.
One of them asked, "Do you have a good way to break the enemy?" ”
Guan Duo smiled silently and nodded. The generals were dumbfounded and didn't know what Guan Duo meant, and the Wenchen strategists reacted quickly, and a few of them immediately understood, among them, Li Aguan's husband, Li Dunru couldn't help laughing, and said: "Those who make good use of soldiers can be used for their own purposes." Adults and auspicious people have their own heavenly appearance, now look at the sky, cloudy, pinch the time, now it is the end of October, the beginning of November, not the day will fall heavy snow. ”
At this point, all the generals understood and laughed, and said: "The weather is cold, and it snows heavily, and it is okay for me to have heating in the city, and there are houses to shelter me; But Naha went out of the city to build a camp, not to mention the increased difficulty of the siege, but the soldier was frostbitten, and he couldn't stand it. ”
Li Dunru made a judgment: "As long as it snows, within ten days, the Tartars will retreat!" ”
He said that "Jiren has his own natural appearance", which won the heart of Guan Duo. Born Guan Duo, he would never let him die today! It's not a pity for the crippled body, and the ambition of life is not rewarded.
However, having said that, in the battle of soldiers, the major events of life and death, celestial phenomena can be seen and borrowed, but they cannot be relied on. Guan Duo pondered for a moment and ordered: "Command the three armies, God help our army, God bless me Liaoyang, and if it snows soon, the Tartars will retreat." This is to boost morale, and then said, "Send messengers, choose fierce generals, be sure to fight your way out of the encirclement, to Gaizhou, to Shuangcheng." Sitting at this hour, you Xiao Deng should also move, right? ”
If you want to say that sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, Deng She is genuine. Guan Duo was clear, but helpless. He called back the officer who gave the order, pondered for a while, and added: "The letter to the two cities, one bright and one dark, is divided into two letters. Ming, plucked Xiao Deng as the marshal, and told him that as long as the siege of Liaoyang is resolved, the old man will play the lord, please dial Gaizhou and other Liaozuo places into his Shuangcheng Governor's Mansion. ”
This was an actual recognition of Deng She's control over Liaozuo, and the officer answered the order and asked, "What about the dark?" ”
"Give Yao Haogu."
Before the words fell, the war drums beat and the artillery roared in the Yuan military camp outside the city. Thousands of Yuan army foot soldiers, facing the cold wind, stepping on the hard ground, holding all kinds of siege equipment, shouted and surged up like a tide.
This is the first dozens of attacks? Guan Duo couldn't remember clearly, but like a rain of arrows and arrows from locusts, he stood still. He was condescending, despising the ant-like Yuan army, he was not discouraged or depressed at all, he dragged his injured leg, he was old, he was full of confidence.
Facing the black clouds that crushed the city, he firmly believed that when the armor light turned to the sun, the golden scales of the hidden dragon opened.
……
"This is the first time an adult has gone to find Xiao Deng?"
Yao Haogu grimaced and replied angrily: "Thirteen times." ”
"Do you see Xiao Deng?"
"Winter is coming, and he has gone to arrange measures to protect against the cold."
"First I watched the ship, then I handled official business, then I sent the troops to suppress the garrison, and now I have arranged cold protection measures. How many more times are adults going to touch the wall? ”
A similar conversation is conducted once a day between Yao Haogu and Qian Shide. He was very impatient and glared at Qian Shide: "What do you want to say?" Let's get it straight! ”
"What the last general wanted to say, I said a few days ago; Why do adults ask knowingly? Yao Haogu was impatient, and Qian Shide was even more impatient. Both of them were in a bad mood, and while worrying about Liaoyang, they begged Deng She in a low voice over and over again. No one can stand it, the key is, you can't ask for it.
Just after Yao Haogu asked to see Deng She several times, Qian Shide proposed a solution; Yao Haogu denied it at that time, and when he mentioned it again, he shook his head again and again, and said, "Your method won't work at all." ”
Qian Shide didn't argue with him, picked up a document on the table of Yao Haogu's case, and said, "May I ask my lord, how many letters is this from Lord Pingzhang?" ”
"The third one."
"Pan Cheng and Sha Liu Er did not move; Are you planning to abandon Liaoyang too? ”
Yao Haogu frowned, he boasted that he had a very deep kung fu in self-cultivation and qi cultivation, and he paid attention to joy and anger, although he didn't care about Qian Shide's disrespectful words, in the end, the situation in Liaoyang was getting tighter and tighter, and it was inevitable that he couldn't hold his breath. With annoyance, he said: "You and I are only a thousand people, what role can you play if you can't move Xiao Deng?" ”
It's good that he didn't mention it, but when he mentioned it, Qian Shide was angry and said: "Thanks to the siege of the Jurchen rebels, you and I have contributed a lot." If you don't ask Xiao Deng Zhien to repay, he can't hang people like this! My lord, can you bear this breath? ”
The rebels besieged the city, Yao Haogu and Qian Shide helped, and Qian Shide's army also assisted in defending the city. However, Yao Haogu also knew that even without their help, Hong Jixun could hold on; With such a dispensable favor, he wanted to exchange Deng She's loss of troops to save Liaoyang, he shook his head, how could it be!
Yao Haogu was irritable, turned around twice, and looked out of the hall.
Qian Shide looked at his actions coldly and asked, "Are you looking forward to snow?" …… It's been cloudy for almost a month! What's next? In his letter, Lord Pingzhang said that it is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to achieve things. It's good for adults, and if you don't have anything to do, you can count on God. He sneered a few times, "Haha, good, that's good." ”
As he was agitated and cynical, Yao Haogu ignored it. Qian Shide said: "Xiao Deng is just a procrastination, haha, he will be helpless to make Yao Da Strategist, who is famous in our Liaoyang Army, helpless." Haha, haha. ”
"Don't say it again, I will never agree to the method you proposed."
"Why not?"
"Too adventurous. You are only a thousand people, inside and outside the twin cities, how many troops are there? There are thousands in the city and more than 20,000 outside the city, and the situation is chaotic, how can you control it? ”
"More than 20,000 outside the city, half of them surrendered. At the right time, the remaining more than 10,000 dragons were also leaderless. Adults ascend and shout, there is the name of Pingzhang Adult, what are you afraid of? The last general asserted that they would all obey their fate. Qian Shide moved the inkstone on the desk to the side, "Remove more than 20,000 people outside the city and thousands of people in the city, it is the best to lower, what is the use when you refuse to surrender?" Leave the twin cities to him, and let's lead the army north. You can cross the Yalu River in a few days. My lord, if this happens, it will shake the earth. ”
Yao Haogu laughed and laughed, it's easy to say, but how to do it? If the Yuan army mutinies, if the Jurchen soldiers take advantage of the chaos, if the Shuangcheng army and horses do not surrender and counterattack? One word, two words came to his lips, and he swallowed back: "Ridiculous! ”
Qian Shide said: "I thought that the great man was a man of humanities and martial arts, and he could be called a hero; Who would have thought that he was as timid as a mouse. Liaoyang is in danger, can't adults give it a go? If you don't give it a go, how do you know if you can't do it? ”
"Absolutely not."
"So the adults are willing to sit and wait for death?"
Yao Haogu was speechless for a long time, and at the end, he said, "There is always a hope." ”
He analyzed the situation, Liaoyang is about the Duo Commander's array, and there are Mao Jujing and Pan Cheng outside a total of 50,000 or 60,000 horses, as long as there is no shortage of food, every day is as cold as a day, maybe if it doesn't wait for snow, Naha will not be able to support it first. He turned his head and saw Qian Shide's cold face.
Analysis is analysis, and reality is reality.
That's it, that's it, it's up to people to make things happen, and it's up to heaven to succeed, although Qian Shide's plan has a chance of success at most, but it is also the only way out now. He has no shortage of decisions, and when there is no choice, the only choice is the best choice. Thinking of Guan Duo Suri's trust and reuse, even if he dies because of this, he is worth being a confidant.
He made up his mind and said, "Wait three more days, if you still can't see Xiao Deng, do as you say." As he spoke, he beckoned the maid to come over and put on her coat.
Qian Shide asked, "What did you do?" ”
"Go to the camp and find Xiao Deng."
……
Out of Yao Hao's ancient mansion, the cold wind swept in his face, Qian Shide shrunk his neck, he was extremely disappointed; He remembered a sentence from Brother Huang Donkey's comments on Luo Guoqi, Deng She and others: "Those who have read books will not be stupid to read, mother-in-law." Looking ahead and looking backward will not make a big deal. ”
"That's right." Qian Shide turned over and got on his horse, the horsewhip was struck hard, the horse neighed, and four or five personal soldiers surrounded him and galloped away.
"General, where are we going?"
"Lao Huang is on the house."
……
Brother Yellow Donkey has been waiting for a long time.
"What did Master Yao say?"
"Wait three more days."
“…… It's good. ”
"What a bird! He can wait, Liaoyang can't wait, and Lord Pingzhang can't wait. ”
"That?"
"Tonight, let's do it."
——
