An Lushan, who had just been crowned the envoy of the Pinglu Jiedu, was sitting in the main hall of his Pinglu Jiedu Envoy's Mansion with his big belly at the moment, enjoying the dance of the singers, and holding a favorite concubine with outstanding appearance in his left and right hands.

An Lushan, the first half of his life was more tragic, his father died early, fortunately, his mother was good-looking, or a witch in the Turkic tribe, after the death of his father and husband, he remarried a general of the Turks, who was originally called Kang A Meat Mountain, also followed his stepfather's surname, and became An Lushan.

Before the age of thirty, An Lushan had been fighting in the border area, that is, in the area of Fanyang.

On the surface, he is a businessman, but he is a restless rogue businessman, stealing chickens and dogs, and doing countless things to buy and sell.

But because of his stout physique, he was born brave and ruthless, and he also had a brother who grew up together, named Shi Siming, who was also a brave and ruthless master, and the brothers got together to make An Lushan live a ...... before he was thirty years old There is no respect, only fear.

But the good times didn't last long, when he was thirty years old, An Lushan was beaten up because he stole sheep, but stole sheep from a large family.

Stealing chickens is not a recipe for rice.

It can be seen from this that he is not a good person, and he is not living well, otherwise he would not steal.

Hooligans are brave and ruthless for a lifetime, and they can't get on the stage.

But fortunately, just when An Lushan was about to be beaten to death, a noble man in his life, Zhang Shouqi, who was the envoy of Fan Yang at the time, appeared in front of him.

Seeing that An Lushan was tall and tall, he was still ...... under the siege of more than a dozen people hasn't been killed for the time being, and can still stand up and fight back, Zhang Shouqi immediately fell in love with talents, and after a few simple questions, Zhang Shouqi received An Lushan under his account, and together with Shi Siming, he became a catcher.

According to the current words, the capturing general is a scout, who specializes in complex exploration of the terrain and scratches the tongue, so An Lushan also embarked on the army.

This is probably the biggest mistake Zhang Shouqi has made in his life, he doesn't know what kind of disaster he will bring to Datang in the future because of the big man who was beaten and his face was swollen and swollen, but he still looked at the enemy fiercely.

If Zhang Shouqi had the ability to predict the future, I was afraid that on that day, not only would he not care about An Lushan, who was beaten by someone and his nose was blue and swollen, but he might also personally move forward and cut off An Lushan's head to prevent future troubles.

But so what? Without An Lushan, there will be Zhang Lushan, * Mountain, history is history, and it will not change because of a person's death.

......

For An Lushan, a person who naturally likes to be brave and ruthless, the army is his best home, as soon as he enters the army, An Lushan is like a fish in water, with his own courage, with his own bravery, coupled with the familiarity of the surrounding terrain as a local snake, An Lushan and Shi Siming soon emerged in the Fan Yang army.

Every time there is a battle, there must be a victory, and many times relying on the terrain to win more with less.

Objectively speaking, An Lushan is a person who can fight, but because of what he has done in history, no one will use the word famous general to describe him, but in fact, his level of leading troops is indeed very high.

Entering the army at the age of thirty, within two years of promotion by Zhang Shouqi, An Lushan became the general of the Left Cavalry Guard, and after another two years, he became the general of Pinglu.

In the first year of Tianbao, the forty-year-old An Lushan became the envoy of the Pinglu Army, holding an army and becoming the highest military commander in the local area, with tens of thousands of elite soldiers in his hands.

Take a look at An Lushan's resume of ten years in the army, I have to say that this is a miracle, in the era of peace, there are almost no people who can climb to the top of the party in ten years.

But An Lushan created this miracle, even if An Lushan's own character is a cunning and treacherous, fierce and vicious, and good at people's will, in the same way, this kind of person is also the most open in the court, but this does not become the reason why he climbs so fast.

In fact, the fundamental reason why An Lushan was able to become a festival envoy so quickly was because of his background!

Yes, Hu people, An Lushan is a Hu person, which is why he can climb so fast.

In fact, in the Tang Dynasty at that time, as long as they were Hu generals, they were promoted very quickly.

Let's take a look at the people of this era who are the envoys of the festival with heavy armies.

An Lushan, the envoy of the Three Towns Jiedu, Ge Shuhan, and Gao Xianzhi, who was imprisoned in Chang'an due to the defeat of Hengluo in the First Battle, plus Feng Changqing, the envoy of the Anxi Jiedu, and Guo Ziyi, the envoy of the Shuofang Jiedu.

Among these festival envoys with heavy troops, in addition to Feng Changqing and Guo Ziyi, who are Han people with Zheng'er Bajing, Na'an Lushan and Ge Shuhan are all Hu people who are Zheng'er Bajing, and Gao Xianzhi also has Goguryeo blood.

But it is ridiculous to say that it is these Hu generals who have the most trust of Li Longji, Li Longji trusts An Lushan and Ge Shuhan, and even surpasses Feng Changqing and Guo Ziyi, two loyal and famous generals.

Any idea why? Quite simply, in a word.

A word from Li Linfu.

Because he was worried that the Han generals would snatch power from him after they entered the dynasty and made meritorious contributions, Li Linfu deliberately reused those Hu generals who were not educated, mainly because the Hu people had no culture and could only fight, which was very easy to control.

So he often told Li Longji that the Hu people are the most loyal race in the world, as long as they recognize you as their master, then they will be loyal to you all their lives, and will never rebel, and their loyalty is far beyond that of ordinary Han people.

Li Longji believed it and believed very much that under the admonition of Li Linfu, a traitorous minister, Li Longji in his later years wantonly reused Hu generals, but he remained deeply wary of Han generals.

But what did he get in exchange? Li Longji's wanton reuse was exchanged for a rebellious An Lushan, in exchange for a Ge Shuhan who surrendered and sent 200,000 troops to An Lushan's rebels.

And how did the Han generals who were heavily promoted and released by him repay their majesty?

fought to the death, and was finally given to death by Li Longji Feng Changqing.

Guo Ziyi, who was almost exhausted to death, put out fires everywhere.

On the surface, it seems that this is caused by the mediocrity of Li Longji in his later years, but in fact, someone created all this.

A black hand, invisibly a black giant hand enveloped the entire Tang Empire, and he slowly, little by little, pushed the Tang Dynasty into the dark abyss.

This black hand appeared as early as the day An Lushan became the envoy of the Pinglu Festival.

........

Today is the great day when An Lushan was promoted to the envoy of the Pinglu Festival, and An Lushan is very happy, especially happy.

After ten years of hard work, his beard is finally getting ahead, and those who he used to need to look up and look at now all need to lie at his feet.

Look at the treasury in the house, full of gifts, and then look at the two beauties on the left and right, all of whom were sent by local tycoons to befriend him.

"Damn, why hasn't Lao An's money been spent in vain all these years, those sour talents in the court are still quite personal, and they know how to do things with money, they have to do things, they don't lose money!" An Lushan, who was full of fat intestines, full of beards, and small eyes, hugged the two delicate concubines left and right, and laughed happily.

Over the years, in order to climb up with vigor, An Lushan didn't know how much gold and silver treasures he had paid.

After Li Longji ascended the throne, he appointed a series of perfect official inspection systems, which also became a reason for An Lushan's rapid promotion.

A few years ago, Zhang Lizhen was named the Hebei interview envoy in the imperial history, An Lushan tried his best to win him over, not only to send him gold and silver treasures, but also to let go of any of the people under his hands, and when Zhang Lizhen returned to Chang'an to restore his life, up to himself, down to his entourage, everyone was carrying a bulging bag in his pocket.

It is precisely because of these gold, silver and jewels that An Lushan was exchanged for the position of the governor of Yingzhou and the military envoy of Pinglu.

In the following years, as long as people came down from the imperial court and came down to supervise the imperial history of local officials, An Lushan worked hard to send money to those people, so that he also got the throne of this party and the envoy.

It is now the year of Tianbao, no longer the year of Kaiyuan, and the officialdom will soon degenerate, corruption and bribery will become commonplace, and officials have developed the habit of collecting money to do things.

"Hahaha, why is Lao An now a feudal official, special, who would have thought that a bastard like me would be like this one day, beauty, do you think so?" An Lushan hugged the two favorite concubines and asked with a smile, the fat on his face was twisted into a ball.

"Hehehe." A light laugh sounded, and the two favored concubines dressed in tulle and graceful bodies lay in An Lushan's arms, and said sweetly: "Your Excellency is talented and mighty, what is the feudal official, and your adult will be able to worship the marquis one day." ”

"Good! You can say that again! Come, drink, on the day of the big day, why don't you drink more! An Lushan was very useful for the praise of the concubines, and under the service of the concubines, he picked up the wine glass, drank it in a big gulp, and when he was drunk, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the hall.

An Lushan put down his wine glass and squinted, it turned out to be his son, his favorite eldest son An Qingzong came.

An Qingzong, who was in his twenties, strode into the main hall, and all the dancers who were dancing on the side stopped, An Qingzong frowned and waved his hand, telling them all to retreat, and then bowed respectfully to An Lushan and said, "Father." ”

An Lushan laughed, "Qingzong is here, hurry up, sit down, sit down, and have a few drinks with your father." ”

Compared with his father's brain full of fat intestines, both horizontal and vertical are almost wide, An Qingzong is very handsome, and he is calm, which is also the reason why he likes An Lushan.

Glancing at the two bewitching concubines beside his father, An Qingzong frowned and said, "Father, you have just been promoted to the envoy of the Pinglu Festival, and you shouldn't put all your time ........"

"Gotta it, Qingzong, don't be like your dead mother, it's okay to keep nagging me, my father is so old, I can't enjoy everything in the world." An Lushan waved his hand begging for mercy, and it could be seen that he really liked An Qingzong very much.

An Qingzong nodded helplessly, "Okay, father, it's too much to say." ”

An Lushan smiled, "Okay, let's talk about it, what's the matter with finding a father?" Haven't you been training soldiers and horses in a big camp at this time? ”

An Qingzong arched his hand and said: "If you go back to your father, someone outside the mansion wants to see you." ”

"Who?" An Lushan asked absentmindedly.

An Qingzong shook his head, "I don't know, I saw that this person was wearing a black robe, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but ...... This person is not ordinary, he just killed two people in the river, the child saw it clearly on the side, and now he has been surrounded by the warriors in the mansion outside the mansion, the son came to ask his father, do you want to see him? ”
