Chapter 22: The human heart has right and wrong, good and evil, and 3 deaths

Above the nine heavens, Ji Lingjun looked at this scene with a little emotion.

She came to Valhalla and told Luo Su about it.

Luo Su flipped through the book in his hand, his fingers were white to the point of transparency, as if there was endless light on his fingertips, and his complexion did not change in the slightest.

Ji Lingjun said with emotion: "Ancestor, the family has only left the Central Plains for less than a hundred years, why did such a thing happen?"

What is the value of the family's existence for more than 1,000 years?

Please help us understand our doubts. ”

Hearing this, Luo Su closed the book in his hand, looked at Ji Lingjun and said softly: "Lingjun, with your intelligence, why do you need me to solve your doubts?"

Those people with lofty ideals who were killed are the value of the existence of the family, it is not empty, there are people who insist on the right one, it is enough. ”

Ji Lingjun was silent for a moment and then said in a low voice: "But they failed, why did they fail?" ”

Luo Su laughed, and in an instant, he retracted again, and said seriously: "Because the right people, those who grasp the truth, do not hold power.

The truths that the family has preached in the past 1,400 years are not that no one will preach, and the saints of the hundred schools of thought in the mouths of later generations, and those sages and sages in the Zhuxia Temple, all know these truths.

But only the family has the strength to defend these truths, so all crowns and glory fall on the head of the family.

Now no one has the power, so they suffered a huge setback.

But failed?

Heh, won't fail.

Do you think that Cao Chengsi can kill all those people with lofty ideals?

Do you think that Cao Chengsi can get the final success?

I think he's in danger, and I think he's not far from death.

There are those who do not cling to the crown of justice and judge sin even though they are not for the sake of justice.

Because there is right and wrong in the human heart, good and evil.

That's the value of the family. ”

……

Massacre of soldiers.

The last one to do this was Dong Zhuo.

The opposition never stops with killing.

Either fierce resistance, such as a coup d'Γ©tat, a rebellion.

Either silent resistance, such as swinging.

If in a great unified dynasty, kill a group and pull a group, the country will not go into decline, because the central government can put down those rebellions.

But in the troubled times when all the nations stood side by side.

What does Wei look like today?

At the peak of the Wei State, he controlled the four counties of Guanzhong and Hexi, the west of the grassland, Shudi, Hedong and Heluo, but as Cao Chengsi began to make wind and rain in the Wei State, the Wei State lost Heluo and Hedong one after another, Shuzhong has been divided, and the four counties of Hexi are knocking on the pass.

There is only Guanzhong left in the Wei Kingdom, but it is only the four counties of Sanfu and Liangzhou, even the land of these seven counties is already turbulent, just waiting for a sudden opportunity, it will change the sky.

This opportunity will soon come.

……

The news of what happened in Chang'an of Wei swept through the entire Wei State like a storm, and Chang'an was so close to Shuzhong that it naturally spread quickly.

Chengdu.

After the secession of Shuzhong, Cao Lu has been paying attention to the news of Guanzhong, and what he is most worried about is that Guanzhong will cheer up, and then break Shuzhong to liquidate him, a betrayer.

Unexpectedly, he waited left and right, and what he waited for was Cao Chenghe's ascension to the emperor's throne, and he was still massacring those who opposed him in Chang'an.

He was really surprised and delighted, surprised by Cao Chengsi's madness, and delighted by Cao Chengsi's madness.

He flipped through the letter and read it over and over again, and then passed it to the people close to him left and right, but he couldn't help laughing, and couldn't stop laughing: "I thought Cao Chengsi was an extraordinary character, but I didn't expect that he was a fool, no, a madman."

He was fascinated by intrigues and tricks, so he thought that everyone in the world believed in that set. ”

Seeing this, Cao Lu's courtiers asked: "Great King, Cao Chenghei has acted perversely in Guanzhong, should we recognize his throne or oppose him?"

He was, after all, the legitimate emperor. ”

Ga!

Cao Lu's laughter stopped abruptly, and he said rather speechlessly: "How can you say the words to recognize his throne?

He is legitimate, but unreasonable.

The truth is bigger than the sky!

Even if it is not for the glory and wealth of this life, for the sake of a thousand years of history, I must oppose him, and immediately send a letter to the famous people of the Great Wei and the officials who are good friends with me, and I must not recognize the throne of Cao Chenghe.

Give Gu a banner, and from today onwards, Gu will stand on his own as the king of Shu and no longer obey the orders of Emperor Chang'an Dawei. ”

Self-reliance!

Thorough self-reliance!

This is completely different from the previous separation, this is a complete slap in the face of Cao Chenghe, it stands to reason that the ministers should be to persuade such a major political move, but these courtiers in Shu, almost without any hesitation, knelt in front of Cao Lu and said in unison: "Meet the king." ”

After everyone stood up, he asked in a deep voice: "King, is my Shu Kingdom going to lead troops to attack Chang'an?" ”

Cao Lu thought for a while and waved his hand and said: "No, Chang'an's strength is still relatively strong, my Shuzhong soldiers are good at mountain warfare, not good at fighting on the plains, especially without cavalry, they can't fight hard with Chang'an."

Let's wait for the four counties of Hexi and Guanzhong to consume a wave. ”

Although Cao Lu did not directly attack Guanzhong, it didn't matter anymore, his title to king was the fuse that all the Wei people were waiting for.

The so-called spark of stars, Cao Lu's self-reliance directly ignited this fire to the level of a raging fire.

The rebellion of the four counties in Hexi was originally a rebellion in a corner of the country, but as a result, when Hedong and Heluo were lost one after another, and Shuzhong became self-reliant, the four counties fought seven counties, and they turned into less than half of the Wei country's beacon fire, and the nature immediately changed.

Cao Chenghei was sitting in Chang'an, and bad news came everywhere, and the self-reliance in Shuzhong made him extremely angry.

When the news came, he was in the palace, studying with his generals how to pacify the four counties of Hexi, which he was most sure of being able to take easily.

But the news in Shu shook his head to the buzz, "Cao Lu, as a clan relative, betrayed Great Wei, it is really despicable, he should be killed!" Damn it! ”

When he said this, he completely ignored that he was a clan relative, but he killed the king twice.

With a sword in his hand, he slashed and slashed around the temple, his face hideous, his eyes red, and he gasped for breath, like a real madman.

In the face of the furious Cao Chenghe, Gong E made some strange noises in fear, he rushed directly over, stabbed Gong E through with a sword, and the blood rushed directly to his face.

"Bitch, damn it!"

That Gong'e fell to the ground in disbelief, and the rest of the people in the hall were silent, many of them had clenched their fists tightly, and the sad anger of the rabbit and the fox was transmitted among these people.

……

The political situation in Yan Guozhong was also quite delicate, and after the emperor temporarily eased the relationship between the Empress Dowager and Murong Ke, Yan Guozhong began to think about his next plan.

Murong Ke seized the opportunity to get Murong Chui out of Jicheng and let him go to Hedong County, which was the farthest away from Jicheng.

In Jicheng, Murong Ke saw Murong Chui off, poured wine and said: "Seventh brother, this time I went to Hedong to sit in the town, my brother has high expectations for you, don't live up to my expectations." ”

Murong Chui smiled bitterly: "It's obviously a distribution, what can I do?" ”

There is nothing wrong with Murong Chui's words, the real seat is to go with a holy decree or a very high official position, such as the opening of the palace with the three divisions, the king of Hedong County, the governor of Hedong Zhujun, and the Shangshu of Hedong Xingtai, only with this kind of official position can it be called sitting in the town.

Murong Chui doesn't even have an official position in the history of Hedong Thorn, what kind of seat is this, it can indeed only be regarded as a distribution.

Murong Ke said with a smile: "Seventh brother, I will give you a reason for my brother today, people are outside, what their identity is, they are all given by themselves."

You are your father's son, the prince of Dayan, and you have the blood of the Murong clan in your body, this is your natural advantage.

And in Hedong, I still have a few people, these people will obey your orders, as long as you are really capable, why can't you achieve a career in Hedong?

Take advantage of every opportunity.

You have this talent, and I believe in you. ”

Murong Trai left Jicheng with doubts and abruptness.

Only a few months after he came to Hedong, the incident of Cao Chenghei broke out in Wei, and he instantly realized that his opportunity had come.

When the news of Shuzhong's self-reliance came, he knew that this was indeed an opportunity given by God.

Murong Chui has only 1,000 soldiers and horses in his own headquarters, which is not a lot of troops, which is why he said that he was assigned, but in the past few months, he has been actively contacting in Hedong, as long as he can convince a few people who are good friends with Murong Ke, the soldiers and horses he can control are likely to swell to 6,000 people!

Hedong County has been divided into two states, but because the time of division is relatively short, there is no feeling yet, Murong Chui called a few people who have always been good friends with him to talk about his plan.

"Now there is chaos in the Wei country, there are scholars in the three auxiliaries who have come to contact my Yan army, hoping that my Yan can lead the army to calm the chaos, they are willing to sacrifice the land of Wei, this is a golden opportunity, this king is ready to respond to the petition of Guanzhong, lead my big Yan Erlang, cross the Yellow River, and go to capture Guanzhong."

Murong Chui's plan frightened a few people almost instantly, "King, most of the army in Hedong is not in our hands, we only have a few thousand people, and the money and food are not enough, isn't it death to go to Guanzhong?"

Moreover, His Royal Highness the King of Taiyuan said that the current situation in Hedong is because of the political pattern of Jicheng, and when there is no change in the political pattern of Jicheng, there will be no change in Hedong, which is really too risky. ”

This kind of steady and mature words have always been the most popular, but Murong Chui lowered his voice and said categorically: "This king doesn't know what the political pattern is, and this king doesn't know much about those complicated politics, but when it comes to military affairs, this king can't be clearer, and now is the best time to capture Guanzhong."

If Chang'an is really allowed to extinguish the flame of Sanfu's uprising, then the time for my Dayan to seize Wei will be greatly pushed back, you must know that the chaos of Wei has not affected the ordinary people, if Cao Chengsi really kills those Wei magnates who oppose him, it is impossible for us to attack Wei. ”

Murong Chui is too keen on military affairs, he can see it very clearly, although Cao Chenghei of Wei State is messing around, it has not affected ordinary people, and at the most fundamental level, Wei State is not chaotic.

The reason why Wei is so chaotic now is because the current people of Wei have not been able to descend on the heads of the common people, and those scholars are the people of Wei now.

The government forced the people to rebel.

Now it is these scholars who are opposed, if Cao Chengsi is allowed to sink the people to a lower level, then he will have to wait for the people of the lower class to rebel before he has a chance.

What Murong Chui said was very reasonable, but a few people still hesitated: "King, but we only have such a small number of people, how can we capture Guanzhong, the grain and grass of thousands of troops are not easy to prepare." ”

Murong Chui waved his hand and said: "There are not many soldiers, but in the fine, although our army is small, but they are all elite soldiers, as long as they are used properly, they are naturally enough, and there are millions of people in the pass, all of which we can use."

The scholars who invite our army to Guanzhong will provide us with troops and grain and grass, which is called the king's army. ”

Murong Chui is still quite charismatic, and his strong self-confidence in his gestures and past achievements are not only convincing.

Only one person was left to ask with a little hesitation: "Great King, there is another problem with the lowly position, that is, those Guan Sergeant Clan and my Dayan have always had very little contact, and even in the past, they were hostile. ”

Murong Chui smiled and waved his hand: "Hostility is a good thing, what we have to do is to act without permission, if these people have a connection with Dayan, then it will not be easy to control in the future." ”

Murong Chui's words revealed a different meaning, "King, we act without permission, will His Royal Highness the King of Taiyuan be in any danger in Jicheng?" ”

Murong Chui clenched his fists a little, gritted his teeth and said: "This king has already thought clearly, the more successful we are in Guanzhong, the safer my brother will be in Jicheng, and that demon queen will only think about it before moving my brother."

My brother is too confined to the so-called loyalty, he is enclosed in it, and in order to save the lives of our two brothers, this king can only make this decision, and this must be what my brother is willing to let me do. ”

He recalled what Murong Ke had said to him before leaving Jicheng, and he confirmed his guess and seized the opportunity, this was the biggest opportunity, the opportunity to get rid of the original power of the Yan Kingdom and directly have a strong force.

If you can really capture Guanzhong, no one can find fault with it, this is to open up territory for Dayan, and it doesn't cost anything.

Having said this, there was no longer any doubt, several people glanced at each other, Murong Chui first stretched out his hand, clenched his fist, several people touched each other's fists, and said in unison: "King Su blesses!" ”

……

Contacting Murong Trai and the others was the Zuo Feng Yishi clan, these people happened to be on the opposite side of Hedong, and Murong Trai wanted to send troops, not only to be careful of the Guanzhong army, but also to avoid the eyes and ears of other people in Hedong County.

Six thousand cavalry crossed the Yellow River in the darkness of night.

In the early morning, when the light was on, Murong Trai and the others had already appeared in the agreed area, of course, the scouts had already come here to investigate, and Murong Trai was quite cautious.

Although it was quite a gamble to enter Guanzhong this time, he was actually a very strategic person who did not like to take risks when he was fighting.

The appearance of thousands of tall cavalry is quite a shocking thing, Murong Chui asked everyone to wipe the horses and armor before appearing, this army looks a lot more energetic, anyone who looks at it, knows that this is the elite of the world.

In short, the scholars who greeted Murong Chui and the others had bright lights in their eyes, and they greeted them with a smile on their faces and said with a smile: "The king is really a god, and he has admired his name for a long time." ”

Murong Chui's reputation in the Wei State is much stronger than that of the Yan State, after all, in the original Battle of Fenshui, the Wei people knew who they lost to, and in the subsequent war, Murong Chui blasted the generals of the Wei State, which can be said to be famous.

This is the reason why the Zuo Feng Yishi clan contacted Murong Chui instead of the other stronger Yan generals.

And.

These scholars have an understanding of the political situation in the Yan Kingdom, and they know that Murong Chui was rejected by the emperor in the Yan Kingdom, so they want to welcome him into the main Guanzhong.

Yes.

These scholars just want to change the master of Guanzhong, the Cao family is chaotic in Guanzhong, and they are fed up with the current days.

Since the Later Han Dynasty, the cooperation between local scholars and warlords has been spread in every county, such as the history of the assassin and the other driver, the county guard and the assistant, all of which reached their peak at the end of the Han Dynasty.

The nobles everywhere have cooperated with the warlords, and even supported the warlords to conquer the world.

This trend was established separately from each country, and after the emergence of orthodoxy, it gradually disappeared, especially since all countries reused clan relatives, and suppressed the scholars.

But now this trend is rising again in the Wei state.

It was really the Cao family's continuous accidents, which made people disheartened, Murong Chui appeared in Hedong at this time, and he was very prestigious, it was really fate, and this opportunity was seized by him.

Murong looked at the truckloads of grain and grass transported, and couldn't help but show a sincere smile on his face, and laughed loudly: "Ling Gong is really too polite, Cao Chenghei is perverse, the world spurns, and it is an honor to be able to enter Guanzhong to quell the chaos for the father and elder of Guanzhong." ”

As soon as Murong Chui heard Cao Chengsi mention Cao Chenghe, the old men immediately burst into tears, crying how sad and sad they were, crying and scolding: "Since Emperor Han Er, the old man has never heard of such a mediocre and tyrannical monarch as Cao Chengsi, is this the only husband?"

The people of Guanzhong are in dire straits, and they implore the king to save me from the fire and water, and the people of Guanzhong are willing to sacrifice everything and die together with Cao Chenghei.

Not only the people of my left Feng Yi, but also the people of Jing Zhaoyin and the right Fufeng, the old friends all wrote to say that they were willing to join the king's command. ”

Murong Chui thought about it for a while and said in a deep voice: "Fathers and elders, we can't wait to get rid of Cao Chenghe, the troubled traitor, for the Guanzhong fathers, and we have decided to fight all the way into Chang'an along Weishui, without stopping. ”

Yes?

The crying stopped suddenly, and everyone was shocked by Murong Chui's words, to say that after crossing the Yellow River, it is indeed not far from Chang'an, and you can directly approach Chang'an along Weishui.

Especially for the cavalry, a plain, there is nothing to stop at all.

But everyone still felt that it was too risky, and they rushed directly to the capital without investigating anything?

Murong Chui didn't have this idea at first, but after staying by Weishui and talking to these scholars, he suddenly found that Cao Chenghe's popular will was even worse than he imagined.

And.

Murong Chui raised his horsewhip high and said loudly: "A large part of Cao Chenghe's army went to the four counties of Hexi to quell the chaos, and the army that stayed in the county should be able to deal with it for the time being, which means that there are only more than 10,000 troops in Chang'an now.

Such a little army can not hold the big city of Chang'an, they can only go out of the city and fight with me, I have 6,000 cavalry, hundreds of armored cavalry, as long as the battle is won, you can take Guanzhong.

If Cao Chengsi reacts and he gathers the people near Chang'an, there may be an accident.

This is the best opportunity to defeat Cao Chenghe, and it must not be missed! ”

Hearing what Murong Trai said categorically, these scholars still wanted to persuade them, since they were worried that Murong Trai would have any accidents, then they would welcome the bloody revenge from Cao Chenghe, with Cao Chenghe's style, even if they slaughtered all their families, it would not be surprising.

In addition to this reason, they were also worried that if Murong Chui really won the battle, they would not be able to dominate the subsequent division of interests.

The human heart is always complicated.

But Murong Chui didn't come to be a gatekeeper when he entered the gate, he was a mountain monarch who roared in the mountains and forests!

On the battlefield, Murong will never waver if he makes up his mind, he looks at the gurgling Weishui, meandering into the distance, just like a dragon, the sound of surging water echoes in his ears, he looks back, the water of the Yellow River, which has been clearly seen, seems to be churning, looking south, the Qinling Mountains are like an iron wall there, blocking the enemy who is trying to enter the pass.

Yes, there is!

"Fathers and elders, keep up quickly, if you can open the gate of Chang'an City, this king will make a great contribution for you."

After saying this, Murong Chui laughed loudly again, and shouted loudly at the cavalry of Yan State: "Sons, charge with this king, the target is Chang'an, the emperor of Wei!" ”

"Whoa!"

The earth-shattering sound sounded in unison, 6,000 people, one person and three horses rushed straight to Chang'an along the Weishui, the sound of horses' hooves, the ground shook the mountains.

……

The news from Shuzhong made Cao Chengsi furious, but the news from outside Chang'an City made Cao Chengsi afraid.

He didn't know why a cavalry appeared outside Chang'an City, and even crossed Weishui and really approached Chang'an.

He sent out his army in endless fear and panic, and roared angrily: "Whoever betrays me and lets this army of Yan in, when I destroy this army, he will definitely kill his entire family and destroy his three clans!" ”

Outside Chang'an City, General Murong Chui lined up in formation, countless soldiers stood in accordance with the queue, swords and guns were lined up, and the armor was complete, these cavalry were all elite, and every knight of Yan Kingdom was tightly pulling the reins in his hands, and he couldn't control the war horses that raised their front hooves, these war horses were already a little impatient, and their fighting spirit even exceeded that of the soldiers.

The soldiers of Chang'an poured out from the various city gates, and Murong Chui stepped forward and raised the long sword in his hand, "This king followed the teachings of King Su and the will of Luo Shen, and came to Chang'an to kill the perverse Emperor of Wei."

Are you going to rebel against the will of Roselle and make enemies of this king?

Do you want to disobey the sacred Luo Shen and serve Cao Chenghe? ”

What the emperor did, the people in Chang'an City knew best, killing soldiers was not a big deal for these soldiers, and it had nothing to do with them, and even in a way, many people were afraid that they would laugh out loud directly.

But is it a forgivable thing to kill a soldier in Roselle?

Nobody knows.

Murong Trai was not confused, he did not hesitate to order, "Kill into Chang'an, those who surrender will not die!" ”

The army that came out of Chang'an was very chaotic, some sympathized with the scholars and didn't want to fight Murong Chui at all, so they directly dispersed with the army, and some were loyal to Cao Chenghei and rushed up, but they were directly rushed away by the Yan army with high morale, but after a short period of indiscriminate killing, it collapsed directly.

The Yan army led by Murong Chui has been marching since crossing the Yellow River, which should have been a tired army, but people actually rely on that breath, Murong Chui decisively launched an attack when the Yan army still maintained that breath, and the fatigue of the body had not affected the mental state, and the fierce momentum almost poked a hole in the sky.

In the face of such a Yan army, how could these Wei troops, who were already in chaos, be able to resist, die and flee, Murong Chui crisscrossed the battlefield, seeing that he was almost about to control the whole scene, he immediately shouted loudly: "Those who are willing to kill a single husband, show their left arms, and enter Chang'an together!" ”

He wanted to make the soldiers of Chang'an turn against him and follow him into Chang'an, as long as these people did this, they would form a dependence on him.

"Righteousness!"

"The emperor is perverse, damn it!"

"The people have hated him for a long time!"

"Wake up from ignorance!"

"Follow Roselle's teachings!"

Murong Chui listened to the voices, and he raised his long sword in his heart and roared loudly: "King Su and Luo Shen will protect us!" ”

"King Su's blessing!"

"Lotte bless!"

Countless people shouted loudly, and then rushed towards the palace after Murong Shui.

Cao Chengsi would never have imagined that the army he sent out would become a sharp blade to harvest his life in a short period of time.

Murong Chui rode into the palace, looking at the majestic palace, he only had endless emotion in his heart, he never imagined that he would enter Chang'an so smoothly, and even about to kill an emperor!

The encounter in life is too mysterious.

When Murong Trai stepped into the palace, Cao Chengsi had been directly carried by the soldiers who entered first and thrown it in the hall, a few drops of horse urine flowed out of his crotch, Murong Trai and the others walked to Cao Chengsi's side, looking at his ugly appearance, Murong Trai couldn't help frowning.

"Cao Chenghe, when you killed the soldiers, did you ever think that you would have today?"

Those scholars pointed at Cao Chengsi angrily and said angrily, Cao Chengsi was so frightened that he couldn't speak, he could only live in the shadows, and he couldn't appear in the sun at all.

Murong Chui thought he was still a character, but he didn't expect that he only had the courage to kill, but he didn't have the courage to be killed, he completely lost interest, and this kind of waste can be killed directly.

Emperor Li made up and killed in vain, his treachery was serious, his evil words and deeds were like insects, his people were like pigs, and his thoughts were disgusting and his hopes were like maggots. - "Northern History: Wei Benji"
