Chapter 50: The Rebellion of the Wandering Army

Steamed bread!

Steamed bread!

Steamed bread!

Steamed bread!

Outside the Jinling Imperial City, tens of thousands of troops suddenly became angry, although they were trapped in the thorn fence for a week, but they stood on one side, all of them raised their arms and shouted in unison, as if they were evil and angry.

"General Huangfu! My Song people's surrender army has been unsustainable without food, although we are surrendering the army, we can only die in battle! Can't starve!

If Emperor Tang has always refused us military rations and wants us to starve to death here, then how can I saddle the horses for the Tang Dynasty! ”

Seeing that Wang De's commander came forward to negotiate with the Tang general Huangfu Jixun, the surrendering army in the besieged army raised their shouts a few points, and glared angrily at Huangfu Jixun and others.

Let's say that since the Song people surrendered to this place after the army was surrounded here, Li Yu named Huangfu Jixun as the general of Guide Lang, sent him to garrison here, and strictly forbade the Song people to bring knives in the barracks, Huangfu Jixun was stationed here after receiving the order, did not dare to act without authorization, and always beware of the twelve battalions of the command to make chaos, but now the Song army wants food, but it also makes him a little overwhelmed.

"The matter of military rations has always been in the hands of Feng Yanji, the head of the household department, and the allocation of military rations must also be approved by the Son of Heaven, and I have no right to transfer military rations to you!"

"Is that to starve us to death? Even so, we can't guarantee what these hungry troops will do! At that time, it is not our responsibility to force the troops to rebel, but General Huangfu..."

"What do you mean by that? If the troops are surrendered, it is natural that you and other battalion commanders will not be able to take good care of them! Do you still want to splash dirty water on my Emperor Jixun's head! ”

Huangfu Jixun saw that this person's eyes were fierce, as if he was threatening himself, and he was also annoyed, and pulled out his saber and pointed it at Wang De.

"The two of you don't have a dispute, the Holy Lord has transferred the military rations of the Longxiang Army to the land, and gave Jinling marinated meat! It's to be a good reward for the swimming army! ”

When the two were arguing, Feng Yanji, the head of the household, suddenly arrived with the escort army and hurriedly pulled the two apart.

"Humph! Emperor Tang still remembers that I am waiting! Unlike you, General Huangfu, who is good at wine and meat, but he made me starve to death by eating vegetable soup! ”

"Bastard! How dare you, a descendant, speak to me like this! Think I don't dare touch you! ”

"Enough! General Huangfu entered the account first, and as for the king's commander, hurry up and appease the anger of the soldiers, don't alarm the Son of Heaven! Feng Yanji suddenly solemnized, separated the two again, and placed Huangfu Jixun in the camp.

It wasn't until Wang De entered the siege of the army that Feng Yanji walked into the Huangfu Jixun's tent with a sad face, and immediately accused Huangfu Jixun.

"Huangfu Jixun, the Holy Lord wants you to take care of the Swimming Army, and also wants you to be appeased, you are so violent, aren't you afraid of provoking the rebellion?"

After Feng Yanji finished speaking, he found that Huangfu Jixun was only eating and drinking, and took his words as a deaf ear, and he was immediately angry, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by Huangfu Jixun.

"You can all go out, I have something to talk about with Feng Shilang!"

Huangfu Jixun retired all the lieutenants in the camp, and when he saw that there were two guards behind Feng Yanji, he understood Feng Yanji with meaningful eyes.

"You two will go out and wait." Feng Yanji understood and said to the two behind him.

"Zicheng sees that I'm in a hurry? After you abandoned martial arts, your temper has fallen a lot. ”

Let's say that in the past, when Feng Yanji was the general of Lingwei Yulin Zhonglang, he still had some friendship with Huangfu Jixun, but later he was reappointed as the head of the household department, carried out reforms, and also had a lot of shares with Huangfu Jixun.

"If I don't come to deliver food, are you really going to cut Wang De? How do you explain to the Son of Heaven? ”

"Zicheng thinks that Wang De is a good person? Don't be fooled by these people! ”

What do you mean by that? Surely you have seen the strangeness of the surrender..."

Feng Yanji felt more and more that there was something wrong with Huangfu Jixun, looking at his expression, he also concluded that Huangfu Jixun knew something, but after all, this was a matter of the soldiers, after the Son of Heaven was in power, and the power system was strict, and the ministers were not allowed to get involved in the affairs of the military family, although they were curious, it was inconvenient to ask.

"It stands to reason that this is a soldier's business, and now I have no right to intervene as a minister, but you must remember to keep an eye on them for the Son of Heaven.

At present, the courtiers are strongly advocating that when the Song people go north, my Tang Dynasty will send troops to annex Nanping, and the land army must not have any trouble! ”

"Zicheng is really not curious? I also want to explain to Zicheng the intentions of the Son of Heaven... Since Zicheng has no intention..."

Huangfu Jixun was amused when he saw that this Feng Shilang was obviously curious in his heart, but he pretended not to care about it.

"You! The Son of Heaven wants you to guard the Swimming Army, could it be... Ulterior motives? ”

"Zicheng! Lean your ears over..."

Huangfu Jixun became more and more mysterious, and Feng Yanji, who was provoked, became more and more curious, so he stopped thinking about anything else, and put his ear up to find out.

And Huangfu Jixun also looked left and right, and was even cautious enough to get up and open the tent, and found that there was no one outside the tent, so he approached Feng Yanji with a serious face and said softly.

"Zicheng, the girl in Jinling Yanchun Building is really full of chests, that ass..."

"Huangfu Jixun! Are you making fun of me? ”

"Alas! Just kidding! Come on, I'll tell you! ”

Huangfu Jixun saw that this person was annoyed and angry, and his smile was even stronger, as if to say, I must commit this cheap today!

"You must make it clear to me today, if you dare to tease me again, I will definitely go to the political hall to join you!"

"Zicheng, listen up, those commanders... There will be a rebellion! And... It won't take a few days! ”

Huangfu Jixun regained his solemn state, and suddenly said with a smile.

"There's proof for what you say! False accusation of rebellion is a big crime for my Tang system, and the three clans are not protected! ”

"When the army entered this place, there were already 40,000 stone grains, and only 20,000 armored soldiers, how could they eat up the military rations in just one month!"

"You mean! They secretly hid military rations, and they made trouble today, did they do it on purpose? What is the plan? ”

Feng Yanji raised his eyebrows, his eyes were solemn, and he looked at Huangfu Jixun again, a little curious why he knew this but didn't report it to the Son of Heaven.

"Since these battalion commanders did it on purpose, then this matter must be known to the Son of Heaven! I can't wait to know and not report, I will go back to Longqian Mountain to report to the Son of Heaven! ”

"Zicheng, don't forget, you are now the minister in charge of the household system! If you spread these words to the ears of the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven may not come to the army first, but kill your head first! Cure you for overstepping your authority! ”

Huangfu Jixun still looked at Feng Yanji meaningfully, looking at Feng Yanji with an eager attitude, but he was only laughing on the side.

"Then as a military general, why do you know that they have a rebellion, but you don't report it to the Son of Heaven!"

"It's not that I don't report it, it's... There's no need to report it. ”

Feng Yanji shook his head and immediately came to his senses. "So, you just pretended to be angry at Wang De for drawing a sword... Son of Heaven, also know that these people will rebel in the future? That day, the Son of Heaven brought grain from Longqian Mountain..."

Huangfu Jixun has already hinted at this part, I believe that with Feng Yanji's intelligence, he must have guessed eight or nine times out of ten, and he no longer spoke, just thoughtfully eating wine and meat, looking at the top of the tent and no longer speaking.

Let's say, why did Li Yu conclude that these people would be opposed, because it was precisely because he did not dare to underestimate Zhao Kuangyin, although he used some means to make Zhao Kuangyin target the Northern Han Dynasty, but he believed that Zhao Kuangyin would never let the south go, at least, he would not make a thorn in his side.

After returning to Jinling from Chuzhou, he felt more and more that it must be strange that the Tang Dynasty suddenly got 20,000 troops, although Zhao Kuangyin was not comparable to Emperor Taizong in history, he was also good at scheming, counting a generation of Ming monarchs, it was impossible to be easily calculated by himself. Therefore, there must be ghosts in the 20,000 surrendered troops, and the soldiers are just trying to eat, and if Li Yu wants to control these soldiers, he must pass through the generals who can make these soldiers obedient, then among these generals, it must be one of Zhao Kuangyin's means of overthrowing the Tang Dynasty!

Not to mention what kind of way will be used to overthrow the Tang Dynasty in the future, these twelve battalion commanders must be closely watched, Li Yu then sent Huangfu Jixun to garrison here, always keeping an eye on these commanders, and now these commanders of the army must be trying to slowly gain the trust of the Tang Dynasty, and then ask for the return of the ordnance, there will inevitably be chaos at that time.

"These people, sooner or later, will die! It's just that the Son of Heaven doesn't let them die yet! ”

Huangfu Jixun thought about these commanders, but he felt stupid, thinking that such a trick of deception was so clever that people couldn't see it, and he didn't say that the Son of Heaven could see it clearly, even if he was a general who was a general, he could see it clearly.
