Chapter 19: I see

Dai Wen, who was secretly complacent, saw King Jing's face change greatly, and his heart "groaned". But I can't figure out what went wrong.

King Jing turned his head and said to the waiter: "Go, bring the recital sent by Tian Bang two days before Shouyang joined the army to this king." After a while, the chamberlain brought a book from the library. King Jing said to the chamberlain: "You read it to the secretaries." The servant didn't dare to slack off and opened the table fold and read: "Chen Shouyang joined the army Tian Bang to invite me to the king, a few days ago, the thief army of the six towns gathered 100,000 people to invade the border of my Great Zhou, all the way to break through the Dieshi Pass, and entered Qiangtian County. The thief army forward Gong Yang led 30,000 troops to Shouyang City, the commander Han Qiong did not listen to the good words and led the guard general Han Xun, the captain Han Qu led 5,000 soldiers and horses out of the city to meet the battle, and was introduced into an ambush by Gong Yang with a strategy, and the 5,000 Shouyang Army was annihilated, and the two generals Han Xun and Han Qu were killed. The Grand Commander was desperately rescued by his subordinates. However, the Grand Commander was mortally wounded and dying. The thief army took the opportunity to attack the city, the morale of the Shouyang army was low and could not compete with the thief army, and at the time of the crisis, Long Yi and his brothers Li Xin and Meng Yanchi of the 'Shenma Ranch' ...... "At this time, King Jing interrupted the chamberlain and said to Li Jian: "This Li Xin, is it your son Baicheng?" Li Jian bowed and replied: "Yes, the king, a few months ago, Xin'er went back to Daocheng to visit his old man, that Long Yi is the grandson of his mentor Long Gongwang, this son is a studious young man, well-read, familiar with the art of war, and has a million soldiers in his chest. Later, I heard that Xin'er and Yi'er and their friend Meng Yanchi went to Mangshan Forest to build a ranch, which should be the 'Shenma Ranch' in the table fold."

"Sure enough, it's a group of good young people with strong blood. Oh, I heard you say that Long Gongwang is your mentor, so it should be Li Xin's master, right, how can he also be Xin'er's master? King Jing asked curiously.

"The old man is over 100 years old, the world is a master, the minister is only his nominal disciple, the minister is also because he can not become his descendant disciple often thinks that it is a pity, Xin'er is honored to be accepted as a disciple by the teacher, but because the family migrated to stay under the knee for a short time, so there is not much time to study. Therefore, both my father and son are disciples of my teacher. ”

"Haha, interesting, this king must go to visit your teacher when I have time," he turned to the waiter and said, "You continue to read." ”

“…… At the time of the crisis, Long Yi and his brothers Li Xin and Meng Yanchi of the 'Shenma Ranch' led 300 horsemen to rush into the enemy formation, killing 30,000 thieves and cutting off the head of Gong Yang, the general of the thief army. Seeing that Long Yi and the three of them were heroic, and because of the great strength of the thief army, there were no generals available in Shouyang City, so he discussed with Sima Yuzhong and others, and decided to let Long Yi temporarily take the post of general of Wei, and practice the remaining less than 20,000 Shouyang soldiers day and night, hoping to resist the thief army and protect the peace of the people of Shouyang. Due to the urgency of the situation, it is impossible to report to the king in advance, and I hope that the king will forgive the reckless crimes such as the ministers. ”

After the chamberlain finished reading, King Jing stared at Dai Wen and said, "Tai Wei, did you say that the palace sheep had two heads, one was cut off by General Long, and then the other was cut down by a single line." ”

Tai Wei Dai Wen was covered with sweat, and said tremblingly: "I want to ...... Unexpectedly... The one-liner chapter is so big... Bold, it is really okay to dare to fake military merits... Evil, but the king, the credit mentioned earlier in the fold is false, and the credit in the back may be true. ”

"Humph! Regardless of whether the credit behind him is true or false, then he is guilty of capital crime by pretending to admit the credit of others, don't you know this? ”

Dai Wen hurriedly lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

At this time, the guards ran in and announced: "King, the general Shi Muzhong has returned to Beijing to report on his work, and he has arrived outside the palace gate." ”

King Jing happily said to the guards: "Quick, quick, please come in, and the king will personally greet him outside the palace." After saying that, he got up and walked to the temple gate and waited for the general to come in.

The ancestor of the Shi family, Shi Shangbian, stayed in Qinzhou with Liu Xu, the king of Zhou, during the Liu Song Dynasty, and the reason why the Liu family was able to sit in Yijing for generations was all because the ancestors of the Shi family desperately defended the Zhou land, and they were loyal to the Liu family, worked hard, and never complained. The Liu family has never regarded the Shi family as an outsider, and the Liu family has been courteous to the Shi family for generations. Passed to King Jing's generation, the Western Wei army was eyeing the Great Zhou, and Shi Muzhong overcame many difficulties to personally defend Qinzhou, so that the Western Wei army could not take a step beyond the thunder pool, and protected King Jing to be the king for nearly 20 years. It's just that what annoys Shi Muzhong recently is that he can't hold on to the Western Wei army in Qinzhou, and Shouyang in the west is looked at by the three tribes outside the Hu Dynasty, and there is a danger of sending troops to rob him at any time.

After a while, the general Shi Muzhong hurriedly walked outside the hall, and saw that King Jing was already waiting at the door, and was greatly moved, and knelt on the ground: "Chen Shi Muzhong knocked on my king, and I hope that my king will live a long life and live forever." King Jing hurriedly walked over and pulled up Shi Muzhong and said: "Shi's family quickly get up, my in-laws are working hard for me outside for Da Zhou, and this king should come out to greet him." "King Jing's eldest daughter Liu Zhi'er married Shi Muzhong's son Shi Tianpo as his wife, so the two families are close to each other. Shi Muzhong's resolute face was stained with wind and frost, his beard was slightly pale, and his eyes were shining with a blazing light, which made it impossible to look up. It is worthy of being the general of Beifu who made the Western Wei army frightened. King Jing took Shi Muzhong's hand and walked into the hall and said, "You have worked hard all these years, general, you see that you have white hair, you should pay more attention to your body." Shi Muzhong was a little moved and said: "My subordinates know, the king, you have aged very quickly over the years, there are many things you tell the prime minister, he is doing things, everyone can rest assured, you work like this, if there are three long and two short, how about you call Da Zhou." ”

King Jing was also excited: "This king knows, and this king will pay more attention in the future." ”

King Jing sat back on the throne, the chamberlain brought a chair and put it in the lower position next to King Jing's throne, King Jing asked Shi Muzhong to sit down and asked, "My family, what is the situation in Qinzhou on the eastern front now?" Shi Muzhong stood up and bowed and said: "Qi play my king, Qinzhou is now in a stalemate with the Western Wei army, but Gao Yang, the son of Gao Huan of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, took over the position of prime minister and abolished Emperor Xiaojing to establish Great Qi, claiming to be the emperor. Yuwentai of the Western Wei Dynasty also gradually handed over power to his son Yuwenjue to help manage state affairs, this Yuwenjue is a person who has made a difference, as soon as he came to power, he implemented a lot of new policies, the national strength of the Western Wei Dynasty is getting stronger and stronger, I heard that the Western Wei army defeated the Northern Qi army again and again, and the Wei army by the Weishui has recently changed frequently, as if to take action against my Great Zhou. ”

"Alas! That's not good news. King Jing sighed.

Tai Wei Dai Wen dared to come out at this time and said: "King Qi, since Gao Yang claims to be the emperor, why don't I tell the world to become a great treasure." ”

Prime Minister Li Jian said repeatedly: "The king must not, the reason why the Great Zhou can keep peace forever is that the kings of Zhou in previous dynasties did not establish themselves as emperors and became the target of public criticism." The Great Zhou has always maintained friendly relations with the southern court, and although the Northern Wei Dynasty has coveted me for a long time, it does not dare to act rashly. Now the Great Zhou country is small, and the situation in the surrounding countries is delicate, if the king once he ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, he will inevitably recruit the all-out attack of the Southern Liang, Western Wei, and Huwai tribes, in that case, my Great Zhou has only one way to perish. ”

King Jing was silent for a long time, sighed and said: "The prime minister is very right, don't mention it when you say that you are the emperor in the future." ”

Shi Muzhong saw that the atmosphere was dull and said, "Your Majesty, the minister just brought a great piece of good news today. ”

King Jing said happily: "What is the good news? ”

"Shouyang has produced a peerless genius, if the king uses this person, I will have no worries on the western front of the Great Zhou."

"This king is worried about Shouyang, and his in-laws will listen to it."

"I still want Tianpo to come and tell you, he just came back from Shouyang."

King Jing hurriedly said to the inner attendant: "Quickly spread the heavens to the upper hall." ”

After a while, Shi Tianpo walked in, knelt on the ground, and said in a loud voice: "Son-in-law Shi Tianpo sees the king." ”

King Jing stepped down from the throne and pulled him up: "Good son-in-law, how is my good daughter?" ”

"Zhi'er is good, she asked me to greet you on her behalf, she said that she will come back to visit her father and queen during the Lantern Festival this year."

"Okay, this king misses her a little too. By the way, you just came back from Shouyang, tell me about the situation there. ”

When the son-in-law heard that there were peerless black and white spotted tigers in Helu Mountain, he couldn't help but take the opportunity to return to Beijing and detour to Shouyang, but he didn't expect to meet several amazing people. I really don't need this trip. ”

"Tell me about some great person."

"There is a person named Long Yi in Shouyang, with Li Xin, and later I learned that it is the son of Prime Minister Li Jian, and his brother Meng Yanchi, his subordinates broke the six Han Black Mountain, broke the six Han and captured the tiger to lead three hundred horsemen to defeat the 30,000 strikers of the six towns of the thief army at the invitation of Tian Bang, and cut off the head of the general of the thief army, Gong Yang, and the people of Shouyang cheered and worshiped him as a god. Tian Bang cherished his talent and asked him to temporarily take the post of General Wei, and as soon as Long Yi took office, he issued some orders to collect the displaced people and reclaim wasteland, and it didn't take long for the population of Shouyang to increase to 200,000. Long Yi took over the Shouyang Army, and in less than half a month, he trained the demoralized army like a wolf and a tiger, and the morale was high. The thief army Ge Yuantong was unwilling to fail, and asked Yuanhuazi for 80,000 horses and horses, forming an army of 150,000, and rushed to Shouyang City with great momentum. When Shi Tianpo said this, the ministers in the hall exclaimed in unison, feeling that Shouyang City was more auspicious this time. Shi Tianpo continued: "Long Yi received the news and asked the people of Shouyang City to spread the word that the Shouyang Army had suffered heavy casualties in the previous battle and was unable to fight again. But quietly led 20,000 Shouyang troops to ambush in the 'Little Wolf Slope', the thief army was really fooled, carelessly entered the Shouyang Army ambush circle, Long Yi commanded 2,000 'snow wolf riders' to fight vertically and horizontally, the thief army scattered in a panic and fled, the Shouyang Army captured 70,000 soldiers in a battle, and Yuan Huazi's beloved fierce general Lei Gong also put it under Long Yi's command. Yuanhuazi's general, Brother Zhang, led 50,000 remnants to Qiangtian County, but failed to retreat and fell into the encirclement of Longyi. Long Yi surrounded but did not fight, waiting for Ge Yuantong, who had escaped, to come to the rescue, Ge Yuantong really hit the plan, and hastily gathered 60,000 thieves to rush to rescue the remnants of the starling brother. However, the starling had to surrender to Long Yi after the grain and grass were exhausted, Long Yi turned the horse's head and led the army to the 'small leisure crossing' ambush, poor Ge Yuantong led the breakthrough of less than 30,000 men and horses, from then on the thief army heard the name of the Shouyang army and was frightened, and fled in despair. The son-in-law also met Long Yi and his subordinates in the wine house of 'Little Leisure' and was deeply impressed by them, Long Yi's subordinates are all heroes, and martial arts are not under the son-in-law. In time, the Shouyang Army will inevitably become an invincible army galloping all over the world. ”

"I see, I can't imagine that Shouyang has such a talented person in times of crisis, God bless me Da Zhou." King Jing gritted his teeth and said: "Shan Xingzhang is so bold, and he takes all the credit of others, it is really arrogant to the extreme, if it is not severely punished, where is the prestige of my Great Zhou?" ”

Li Jian said worriedly: "King, if Shan Xingzhang dares to take the credit of others, there must be a trick, and the minister is worried that he will be detrimental to Long Yi and others...... Before he finished speaking, a waiter quickly ran in and reported loudly: "Shouyang three hundred miles to expedite ......"
