Chapter 281: Zhao'an
After listening to Wu Yong's words, Zhu Long did not speak, his eyes turned to Xu Guanzhong, and at the same time remembered the scene of that day in his mind.
Zhang Jinren, the fierce general of the Fang La army, went through a lot of hardships and met Fang Jie in Zhujiazhuang and told them about the plight and tragic situation of the Fang La army.
The imperial court mobilized the Northwest Frontier Army and the Tubo Fan Army to launch a fierce attack on the Pala army.
Not to mention the Western Army, the only army in the Great Song Dynasty that could travel thousands of miles and fight with the Western Xia in the wilderness. But the Tibetan army was also very strong.
During the Tang Dynasty, the powerful Tubo Dynasty had disappeared into the dust of history, divided into tribes, and fought against each other internally, with Western Xia invasion in the north.
After the Northern Song Dynasty recovered the four prefectures of Qingtang, many Tibetan tribes attached themselves to the Great Song Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty also needed these brave and warlike Tubo soldiers to fight against the Western Xia.
In the face of these two strong soldiers who have been fighting bloodily in the plateau and desert all the year round, Zhu Long did not dare to confront each other head-on, and those rebels under Fang La, who were still farmers half a year ago, were crushed at the touch of a button, where was the opponent.
Fortunately, Deng Yuanjue and Shi Bao and other fierce generals fought hard to kill the enemy, so that Hangzhou City could not be lost, and the Fangla Yi Army could barely support it.
However, the outer cities have been lost, and the city of Hangzhou is surrounded by groups, and it is difficult to fly.
Moreover, even if Fang La and the others were killed, there would be no way out.
After listening to Zhang Jinren's words, Fang Jie was anxious, but he was helpless.
Even if his martial arts are world-renowned, he can't repel thousands of troops and horses alone!
He glanced at Zhu Long in despair, and turned away sadly, but Zhu Long suddenly called him and invited him to talk secretly, saying that he was willing to help.
But in the blink of an eye, Zhu Long accepted the imperial court's recruitment again, and sent troops to attack Fang La, which really made the two of them unable to understand.
That's why there is a scene in front of me.
Xu Guanzhong met Zhu Long's gaze and said with a wry smile: "The lord promised Fang Jie the day before yesterday to save Fang La, and today he promised Shi Wenbin to accept Zhao'an, and also to help the imperial court attack Fang La's righteous army, Guan Zhong is ignorant, I really can't understand the deep meaning of the lord!" ”
"Huh!"
Zhu Long smiled faintly and said, "Without him, I just want to take the opportunity to annex the forces under Fang La's command and increase my strength." ”
Xu Guanzhong's expression was obviously disapproving, "If you want to be under the nose of the government, I'm afraid it's difficult!" ”
"Give it a try!" Zhu Long has already made up his mind.
Two days later, the yellow sand at the foot of Zhujiazhuang paved the ground, the flag was unfurled, and on the road in front of the mountain, there were fully armed soldiers standing on both sides, erecting colorful flags, like a long dragon, winding from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain.
Outside the southern camp, incense cases are placed on the side of the road.
Zhu Long was wearing a green wolf robe, handsome and mighty, and his instrument was magnificent.
Surrounded by Zhu Hu, Zhu Biao, Wu Yong, Xu Guanzhong, Guan Sheng, Lin Chong, Luan Tingyu, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, Qin Ming, Hu Yanzhuo, Shi Wengong, Xu Ning, Wen Da, Zhang Qing, Su Ding, Zeng Tu and other nearly 100 generals, large and small, like stars holding the moon, more like wolves surrounding the wolf king.
Zhu Long looked at the other end of the road, looking a little anxious.
"The big officials are in a hurry, and they are in a hurry to report to the Malay, Lord Qincha is already three miles away, and he will be there soon!" Zhu Tong, who was in charge of liaison, comforted.
"Well, I'm not in a hurry! Just the thought of being able to throw himself into the arms of the imperial court and serve the country from now on, he can make meritorious contributions to the people, benefit the people, and glorify his ancestors, so he is excited and difficult to calm down! ”
The big officials are really loyal, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness!
Zhu Tong sighed secretly, and admired Zhu Long's character more and more in his heart.
"It's coming!" Zhu Hu next to him suddenly shouted, pointed ahead, and saw a huge team coming out of the corner of the woods, and the honor guard was grand.
It is worthy of being a member of the imperial court, such a guard of honor, it is indeed full of majesty, and it can subdue the people, which makes people feel small and dare not look at it directly.
However, in front of the strict military appearance of the Zhujia army, the momentum of the Qincha honor guard could not prevail at all.
The team stopped, and the eight-lift sedan car landed.
Zhao Liangsi tidied up his clothes, put on a majestic expression, coughed, and the entourage outside opened the curtain, leaned forward slightly, and stepped out of the sedan chair.
He raised his eyes and saw a group of fierce generals opposite, all of them as strong as oxen, and their momentum was terrifying.
He fixed his mind, and his eyes fell on the burly young man in the middle of the front, only to see that he was deep and proud, not angry and arrogant, and there was a heroic spirit between his eyebrows, under the support of a group of fierce generals, like the stars and the moon.
"Meet Lord Zhao!" Zhu Long stepped forward and bowed down, but his demeanor was neither humble nor arrogant.
"I wish the prestige of the officials for a long time, and I am fortunate to be happy!" Zhao Liangsi bowed in return, but his face was expressionless, maintaining the majesty of an angel.
"Lord Zhao has worked hard, please!" Zhu Long turned sideways and stretched out his hand.
"I wish the great officials, please!"
The two walked side by side to the main road in front of Dulonggang, and the generals of the Zhu family army and Zhao Liangsi's entourage and the gold-armored guards were called two lines, and followed behind, mighty.
Coming to the first pass, the guard general Cao Zheng held his head high, stood at the head of the city, and posed vigilant.
The next four guards will be Peng Xi, Han Tao, Yang Xiong, and Huang Xin.
They were armed with weapons and guarded the pass with elite soldiers.
Zhao Liangsi walked all the way up and saw with his own eyes five tall and steep passes, and two rows of elite soldiers on the side of the avenue, and was secretly frightened.
Such a dangerous place, such a fierce soldier, if the court insists on attacking it, how many people will be killed and wounded!
Passing through the last gate and stepping on a flat open space in front of Zhujiazhuang, Zhao Liangsi was shocked by the tall and sturdy city in front of him!
Zhujiazhuang is located at the top of Dulonggang, overlooking the four directions.
But if you look farther, dozens of miles behind it, there is a majestic Dulong Mountain, as if embracing Dulonggang in your arms.
It's a great place to be!
Zhao Liangsi nodded secretly.
Not far from the city gate, in the open space, there was a desk with incense and candles on it.
Zhao Liangsi took out the holy decree from his sleeve, held it with respectful hands, stepped on the red carpet spread on the ground, carefully placed it between the two candles on the desk, and then bowed to the holy decree.
The gist of it is that the divine decree is carried by the emperor in heaven, in accordance with the officials and subjects, and the heavens are invited to be a witness.
After burning incense and praying, Zhao Liangsi got up, held up the holy decree again, raised it above his head, and turned to face Zhu Long and the others.
Regarding the process and etiquette of Zhao'an, Wu Yong discussed several parties in advance and reached a unified opinion, so both sides were very cooperative, and there was no conflict and unhappiness caused by dignity and ritual issues.
Zhu Long hurriedly led his subordinates to kneel on the ground and listen to Hou's holy decree.
"The system says: There are no two ends in the heart of a person; The eternal way of the country is a reason. If you do good, you will be a good citizen, and if you do evil, you will be against the party. I heard that Zhujiazhuang gathered people for chaos, did not get good, and did not pay conscience.
Today, the angel sent an edict to forgive all the sins committed by the fathers, sons, and brothers.
Alack! Wait for the rain and dew to get rid of the evil and return to the right. Don't be thunderous, follow the meaning of reform...... The ninth day of the 11th month of the fourth year of Xuanhe. ”
Zhu Long listened to the edict while pondering, and waited until finally Zhao Liangsi finished reading the last sentence and said loudly: "Qin this, get up!" ”
"Haha! I wish you great officials, from now on, you will be a member of the imperial court, congratulations! After reciting the holy decree, Zhao Liangsi changed his iron-faced ruthlessness just now and showed a friendly smile.
Zhu Long's face was also full of smiles, and he arched his hand and said, "Master Zhao, sin and sin!" Please take care of it in the future, and bring it up a lot! ”
The two seem to have suddenly become old friends for many years, and they entered Zhujiazhuang with some talk and laughter.
