Today in History:

On February 22, 1974,* during a meeting with Zambian President Kaunda, he proposed the theory of dividing the three worlds.

——

At the beginning, Yao Haogu and Qian Shide came to Shuangcheng and divided 200 people to go to Jiashan, and the remaining 800 people, Deng She specially allowed them to set up a battalion on their own, as a sign of preferential treatment.

Preferential treatment does not mean indulgence, not far from the Qian Shide cavalry camp, two or three miles apart, two thousand troops are stationed. Deng She didn't explain, but everyone understood the meaning, and these two thousand-man teams were responsible for monitoring Qian Shide's camp.

The original 2,000-man squad was severely attrition in the counterinsurgency and was transferred elsewhere to await replenishment. The two thousand-strong troops currently stationed in the city participated in the Gaizhou War, and only then did they return to the Twin Cities with Deng She, and they had just taken over.

Two thousand households, one surnamed Cao and the other surnamed Ni, followed the order led by Officer Deng She, and led the team up the mountain to cut down trees during the day, and they were so tired that they went to bed early. Because of the cold weather, the soldiers on duty outside the gate hid in a sheltered place, holding their hands, stamping their feet, cursing the heavens and the earth, and waiting for the change of shift to come.

On the flagpole outside the camp, the air dead wind lantern is hung high. As the wind rolls, the lanterns sway from side to side; The dim yellow light flickered on and off.

The wind grew stronger and stronger, and the trees howled in the distance; It was cold to the bone, and the dust on the ground was rolled up and fell again. It was night, and the clouds were thick, and there was no one to be seen a few steps away. A soldier interrupted his companions' cursing and asked, "Do you hear the movement?" ”

"What?"

His companions, who were scolding heartily, were suddenly interrupted, dazed and unhappy; One of the probes looked out twice, and the night was as thick as ink, and the wind could not sweep away; It seemed as if a black bird swept outside the camp, leaving behind a few mournful chirps.

"The rebellion was put down, and the Jurchen tribes within a hundred miles of the twin cities were all under surveillance; Nine times out of ten, their men in the prime of life are still in captive camps. What can happen? Besides, excluding the brothers who were transferred, there are still more than 20,000 troops stationed inside and outside our city, and how many people do you think our old men cut off enough? Who dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head! ”

You must know that on the ground of Shuangcheng, not to mention the Goryeo people, their own character is as cowardly as sheep, and after a series of administrative measures, they rarely even have iron tools; The only threat is the Jurchens.

After a big victory, he often slacked off, and Deng She won many battles, and his subordinates inevitably had a sense of self-pride. The soldiers of this army did not participate in the battle to quell the Jurchen rebellion, but only hearsay that Hong Jixun defended the city for half a month without losing it, and forced more than 10,000 rebels to surrender with thousands of people. Instead of being alarmed by the rebellion, it only fostered their pride.

The soldier who spoke first was not at ease, and took two steps to the door: "I really heard something." ”

One of the people on the side sneered: "Do you think about your mother-in-law?" Extremely suspicious! An hour before you came, you muttered and heard a movement, what was the movement? ……”

(An hour ago, more than 100 soldiers pushed carts and quietly passed the front of the camp.) )

The soldier ignored him and listened. The lantern fluttered up and down, and the spear standing on the ground in his hand trembled a little; He looked down at the barrel of the gun, and the ground was a dull yellow color, and the dust was frivolous.

"The ground is moving."

He dropped his spear, and despite the cold, he fell to the ground at once, with his ears on the ground, and soon he jumped: "Cavalry! There are cavalry! ”

Two miles away, one mile away, a hundred paces away, ten paces away, a dark stream of iron appeared in front of their terrified faces.

……

Outside the city of Liaoyang, Mao Jujing is in the camp.

If you look down from the sky, in the middle of the fire-filled camp, surrounded by layers of camp tents, the wellheads of six black holes form a plum blossom shape.

Straight down the well, six long, narrow tunnels ran through the entire camp of the enemy, and went deep into the enemy camp. The wellhead near the enemy camp was dug for a long time; Far from the enemy camp, the tunnels are dug shorter. Their exit, in the camp of the Yuan army, also formed a corresponding plum blossom.

Deng She broke the state with an authentic way, which gave Mao Jujing inspiration.

In the situation that he could not attack the enemy camp for a long time, he listened to Xu Ren's advice, and simply followed the example, painted the cat according to the tiger, and gave Naha a tunnel battle. He climbed the watchtower, had a bird's-eye view of the enemy camp, looked down at the entrance of the tunnel, and raised his head in the face of the cold wind, he said: "Ruixue is a good year." Lord Heizhang has been looking forward to snow for days, and the first snow of this winter will let it fall tonight. ”

Plum blossoms have six petals, and snow is also six.

Hundreds of selected warriors, bound by armor and holding blades, penetrated into the tunnel. This is different from Dunshe's bombing of the city walls of Gaizhou; Going deep into the enemy camp, hundreds of people against tens of thousands of enemies, unless people with great courage dare not do it. If it is said that those who are unrelenting and fight for their ideals are heroes; If it is said that the martyr who is where the Tao is and whose death is not a pity is a hero. Then, at this moment, although tens of thousands of people have gone to me, each of them is also a hero.

"The three armies are ready, and when the enemy camp is in chaos, they will attack immediately!"

……

Twin Cities Chaos.

Deng She drank the ginseng soup, and not long after he got downstairs, he didn't say a word to Luo Guoqi, he suddenly felt a cramping pain in his abdomen, and the attendants didn't react, he pushed down the table and chair, and fell to the ground. Luo Guoqi was startled, stepped to his side in three or two steps, and stretched out his hand to help him up.

"General?"

The pain was unbearable, and on a cold day, Deng She's forehead was sweating. He understood for the first time that he had been poisoned! The second thought came to mind, that someone was going to make trouble. The third judgment is indecisive: the Jurchens? Koreans? Own?

His eyes darkened, and he remembered the previous incident when Chen Hu slaughtered the city because of his injury. He grabbed Luo Guoqi's hand: "The soup is poisonous, and the traitor wants to be chaotic." Spread the order and call Chen Hu to come; Don't kill until I wake up,......"

What if you can't wake up? Deng She's mind was drowsy, and at the moment when he was on the verge of death, he was no longer thinking about himself, but about Shuangcheng, Pyongyang, and Liaozuo; It is the future of this foundation, he said vaguely: "If I die, the position of the head of the twin cities will be passed on to ......" Luo Guoqi did not hear clearly.

Dunshe fell into a coma.

There are pro-soldiers with fast legs, who ran to the side room and called Bi Qianniu, who was not on duty. Bi Qianniu was disheveled, only wore small clothes, and did not bother to wear shoes. He rushed into the hall and saw the sight, and his eyes were split. He stretched out his hand and pulled out the saber of the personal soldier on the side: "The surname is Luo!" ”

Witnessing the great changes, Luo Guoqi was shocked and horrified, his mind was in chaos, and he hurriedly said: "The soup is poisonous!" ”

Bi Qianniu turned to look at the pro-soldier beside him, and the pro-soldier nodded, indicating that it was Deng She's original words. Bi Qianniu didn't say a word, and walked upstairs again; The soldiers outside the hall shouted: "The backyard is gone!" "The backyard was blazing, and the house was in chaos. Outside the courtyard, outside the gate of the house, there was a sudden sound of killing.

Everyone looked at each other. Remembering Deng She's words, Luo Guoqi had gone through battles and tempered in the end, and he finally reacted and shouted: "Traitorous party wants chaos!" It's the Jurchens. ”

……

A quarter of an hour ago.

The piano suddenly broke its strings, and the night without a sound fell silent again. The more Yao Haogu thought about it, the more wrong it became, the conversation with Qian Shide during the day was vivid, and Qian Shide's expression was weird, as if he had a secret. He listened outside, and the night was so quiet that it was unsettling.

He fidgeted, called the boy, and opened the door and went out. Late at night on the streets, there was not a single person. The sound of their footsteps on foot was heard far away. The little guy shrank his head, carried a lantern, led the way, and looked back from time to time.

"What do you see?"

"Master, I always feel that something is following."

Even though Yao Haogu was preoccupied, he couldn't help but laugh; He has always been kind to the child slaves, and he said: "A cowardly fellow. Haven't you heard of it? People have righteousness, but nocturnal spirits are difficult to commit. ”

The boy smiled embarrassedly and touched his head, "Where are we going?" ”

"Qian Fu."

……

An oil lamp, Qian Shide and Brother Huang Donkey sat opposite each other.

Qian Shide's black face like a casserole seems to be as calm as water; He held the hand of the waist knife, and the green tendons burst out, but it revealed his nervousness. The oil lamp shone on Brother Huang Donkey's face, distorting a strange pattern of light and shadow, he twisted his buttocks, his voice trembled, and said, "It's almost three shifts." ”

Qian Shide was noncommittal, and asked the soldiers behind him: "Are you ready?" ”

"Brothers from outside the camp sent a letter and had slipped into the city a quarter of an hour earlier. The officer guarding the door,—— the one surnamed Shi, as Huang Zhenfu investigated, was a drunken and misbeneous person, and had no principles; With the tiger talisman in our army, and the handwriting and seal letter of Lord Huang Zhenfu, the city gate was easily deceived. ”

"What about the others?"

"The soldiers in the house are all ready. …… Looking at the sky, the large troops outside the camp should also be launched. ”

"General, villain,......" Brother Huang Donkey couldn't help but speak.

Qian Shide snorted, didn't allow him to finish, and said in a broken voice: "If you want to achieve great things, how can you look at the beginning and the tail?" Just take the Twin Cities; And then there are people within you who respond to echo, and the natives of Goryeo all over the city are your and my great help. You see, tomorrow morning, the banner of the twin cities, how to change the surname! ”

"Yes, yes." Brother Huang Donkey didn't dare to say more, and he should have been.

Outside, a pro-soldier stumbled in: "General, the fire is on!" ”

Qian Shide got up, drew his knife out of its sheath, slashed it on the desk, and brought down the oil lamp on the case. His eyes were full of anger and exclamation, his armor was heavy, his saber was shining, and he said, "Gentlemen! is willing to cut his whole body, and dares to pull the emperor off the horse. The hour has come, cut the fuck! ”

Inside and outside the indoor hall, the sound of drawing a knife out of its sheath was endless, and dozens of people raised their heads and raised their voices, and the sound shook the roof tiles: "Cut the damn!" ”

Qian Shide walked out of the lobby and stepped on the war horse; The door of the house was wide open, and a group of people poured out.

……

By the Yalu River, several horsemen galloped in.

Dark clouds peeked through cracks, and white moonlight fell on their faces. The first person was Zhao Timur, who killed his father to survive, and he was followed by brave and loyal people carefully selected by Deng She. They reined in their galloping horses and stopped on the banks of the rushing river.

"The river is not frozen, how to pass?"

Zhao Timur looked into the distance, and the dark night was not clear. The air is full of water, and the shore is pale and frosty. There is a small island in the center of the river, and a flock of birds are frightened. He said, "Go left and look for a small boat." I don't know what the battle in Liaoyang is, the general has an order, we must go online with Naha as soon as possible. ”

After he surrendered, Deng She treated him deeply, and a few days ago, he gave him a secret letter, ordering him to use Zhao Xiaosheng's relationship to send it to Naha.

is not afraid that he has two ambitions, Hong Jixun analyzed: Even if he surrenders to Nahachu again, Nahachu will not use him. One is that he has no soldiers or soldiers, and the second is that his reputation for killing his father to survive is really ugly. If Naha really uses it, he won't be afraid, it won't do any harm to the Twin Cities anyway.

Therefore, he only sent a few horsemen to accompany him, taking advantage of his generosity and expressing his trust. Zhao Timur's mood at this time is difficult for outsiders to know. He reined in the shore and looked back at the twin cities, only to retract his gaze for a long time.

……

Twin Cities, outside Dunshe.

Coupled with Qian Shide's support, there were more than 100 rebels in total, and they attacked the door. Qian Shide also brought a few ladders, put them on the wall, and sent soldiers to grab them.

In the house, Bi Qianniu's hair was scattered, he didn't have time to wear armor, and his short, thin clothes couldn't withstand the cold wind, but he didn't feel cold at all; Sweating profusely and barefoot, he set up a defensive line and urged his own soldiers to defend it.

A few days ago, most of the pro-soldiers in Deng She's mansion were sent out to practice and surrender the army, and there were not many left, about 100 people, and more than a dozen were divided into the backyard to fight the fire. Because of the haste of the matter, most of the people guarding the gate of the mansion at this time were similar to Bi Qianniu, with no shelter and naked shirtless.

The rebels who climbed the wall fired rockets, but Bi Qianniu couldn't dodge and almost hit the ground. The rocket grazed his ear, burning his hair and smelling bad. He didn't care, raised his hand to slap it out, held the knife, and shouted: "Resist! Brothers. At most, a quarter of an hour will be followed by the defenders of the city. ”

Deng She is dead, why is Qian Shide still stepping up his attack? He needed Dunshe's head to break the morale of the armies.

"There are thieves!" Suddenly, a pro-soldier shouted.

Following his fingers, Bi Qianniu turned his head to the left to look, and on the left wall, there were two people climbing.

"Shoot!"

Several long arrows roared out, and a person on the wall was hit by an arrow, and fell with a scream; The other man was in a hurry, and when he saw the arrow approaching, he simply let go and fell down. There were a lot of flowers and plants planted under the wall, and at the end of autumn and winter solstice, the flowers and plants withered, but there were so many branches that the man cried out in pain and did not fall to his death. Two or three of his own soldiers rushed over with their knives, and in a short time, they brought the man back.

Bi Qianniu looked at it, but it was Hong Jixun.

I saw that his clothes were disheveled, and there were a few bloody marks on his cheeks, and he probably broke his leg and walked with a limp. When he fell, he ate dirt in his mouth and spat non-stop.

"Mr. Hong?" Bi Qianniu was startled, so he couldn't shoot him to death.

Hong Jixun didn't care about it, so he opened his mouth and asked, "What about the general?" ”

"The general has been poisoned, and he is in the hall, and General Luo is taking care of it."

"I'll his grandma!" Hong Jixun scolded, and his house was also attacked at the same time; The guards in his mansion are not as good as those in Deng She's mansion, there are only a dozen of them, and they can't resist it. Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately made a decision, climbed over the walls of the three houses, and came to the Dunshe Mansion; The one who was shot to death was his scholar.

"The Jurchen soldiers are all in the military camp outside the city, and there is a sudden chaos in the city, and I don't know ,...... outside the city" Seeing Hong Jixun, Bi Qianniu seemed to find a backbone, pulled Hong Jixun, and whispered.

"Jurchen?" Hong Jixun was stunned and pointed to the wall, "Is that Jurchen?" Troublesome Qian Shide! "His brain was spinning fast, and he figured out what was going on when he climbed over the wall. He pulled out his sleeves and ordered, "Hold on!" Chen Hu, Yang Wanhu, generals and the garrison in the city, when they hear the news, they will come, and one hundred and ten rebels will not be able to turn over the big waves! ”

After speaking, he walked less than two steps, and then turned around and said, "There is a few people to guard the wall over there; If the dog day invades my mansion, he will definitely come to attack the marshal mansion along the way. ”

"Where's the gentleman?"

"Go see the general."

……

Qian Shide was very anxious, wasn't Deng She dead? Why did the Shuai Mansion soldiers defend and not retreat? Time passed little by little, and within half an hour, if you couldn't open the door of the mansion and couldn't get Deng She's head, everything would be over.

Brother Huang Donkey was at a loss: "General, why don't we retreat?" ”

Qian Shide kicked him over: "Where to retreat?" Swinging his sword like crazy, he asked left and right, "Have you taken the city gate?" ”

……

The more than 100 rebels who entered the city early were divided into four groups, and the largest group did not go far, but stayed near the edge of the city.

The marshal's mansion was on fire, and they immediately rushed out of the night and rushed to the top of the city. Qian Shide's plan, at all costs, was to seize a city gate, let his cavalry outside the city into the city, and then mobilize the natives to take over the city.

The other three shares, one to kill Hong Jixun, one to kill Chen Hu, and one to kill Yang Wanhu. By the way, they were given another task to set fires along the way.

The soldiers who kept vigil at the gates were no more than two or three hundreds; More than 80 people attacked by surprise, not seeking to kill all the soldiers, but only to open the door, there is a great chance of victory.
