The Chengdu government fell into a brief silence because of Zhang Song's question.

The emperor and concubines who indulge in pleasure, the generals who slap the horses, the prime ministers who are on the throne of their relatives, and abandon the military power like a shoe.

This Tang Dynasty under the rule of Xuanzong, they can't understand whether it is strong or not, but they can see two characteristics:

Extravagant and morbid.

In the end, Liu Bei whispered his thoughts:

"This is the face of the lost country."

……

In Sun Simiao's eyes, the anger of the lord of the Tang Dynasty was rising.

The posture of lying idly on the couch at the beginning disappeared.

first stood up anxiously, then clenched his fists and pursed his lips, and finally chose to rush to the light curtain, holding the pen to relax his chest.

And when he finally saw the troops of the three towns, Li Shimin trembled and stretched out his hand as if he wanted to scold, but before he could speak, he felt as if his head had been hammered, and his temples suddenly jumped as if they were about to burst.

Li Shimin, who stumbled backwards, was supported by the eldest grandson Wuji for the first time.

Without the courtiers to speak, Sun Simiao immediately took out a small clay bottle from the pocket on his waist, and skillfully took out a black and yellow pill and fed it.

Hou Junji also went to pour a glass of water and slowly fed it to the lord of the Tang Dynasty.

At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji had time to ask: "Medicine King, what is this pill?" ”

"Wild chrysanthemum, Tang pine grass, bezoar, pearl powder are the main medicines, with auxiliary medicines, and it is called Qingre Pill in the Ming Dynasty." Sun Simiao is like a treasure.

As for Li Shimin's face wrinkled bitterly by the heat-clearing pill, Sun Simiao didn't care at all.

Medicine, how can there be anything that is not bitter?

Your Majesty is okay to rest for a while, Du Ruhui wondered:

"What about that famous minister Zhang Jiuling? The state has traitors, and it is necessary to unite the loyal and brave to eliminate the thieves. ”

As for the dirty things between An Lushan and Xuanzong and the concubine surnamed Yang, Du Ruhui could only force himself to turn a blind eye.

But in fact, I know in my heart: this Datang's face has been lost!

Even lost face thousands of years later, and even hundreds of years ago!

As soon as he thought of what Zhuge Wuhou had seen and heard, Du Ruhui had an impulse:

Now I am rushing to Chengdu Wuhou Temple for 800 miles to explain, is it useful?

"It should be dismissed early." Fang Xuanling easily guessed:

"With such a reputation, how can this fang be an official and a modest?"

Du Ruyan was dumbfounded, and finally said with anticipation: "I only hope that it will end well." ”

Wei Zheng snorted:

"Lianyong to get rid of thieves, look at this treatment, it's hard to say who will be the thief at that time."

So the ministers were collectively silent, and it was difficult to disobey their intentions.

Looking at the Tang Dynasty that was so badly abused, the civil and military officers didn't bother to care about the unknown names floating on the light curtain.

[From Zhang Jiuling's conclusion that "this fang is bound to cholera Youzhou", to 755 A.D., he officially pulled the banner and rebelled.

An Lushan's antipathy has gradually become an open secret of Datang.

In 754 AD, after the proposal of the official and prime minister was blocked by Yang Guozhong, An Lushan was not discouraged.

In the same year, An Lushan promoted more than 500 generals and more than 2,000 lieutenant generals in one go.

After the promotion list was sent to Chang'an, it caused an uproar, and the people all over the city felt that An Lushan's objection was obvious, but Xuanzong did not believe it and agreed to the list.

Soon after, in February 755, An Lushan's deputy general He Qianqian returned to Beijing to report on his work in place of An Lushan, and he put forward a new request to Xuanzong on behalf of An Lushan:

It is hoped that all the more than 30 Han generals of Fan Yangjun can be replaced with generals.

The generals of the three counties of Heshuo, who went to Beijing with He Qianqian to report on their work, jointly objected and collectively expressed their feelings: Your Majesty, are you blind? A three-year-old child in Chang'an knows that An Lushan is going to rebel!

Xuanzong's disposition was to agree to An Lushan's request, and questioned whether the generals of the three counties of Heshuo were jealous of their talents.

So the ministers were silent, the emperor is like this, what else can you do but obey him?

And in such an atmosphere, Prime Minister Yang Guozhong made an accurate judgment: As long as I force An Lushan, won't everything fall into place?

Yang Guozhong, who felt that his plan was seamless, immediately took action, and without Xuanzong's knowledge, sent people to forcibly search An Lushan's mansion in Chang'an, arrested An Lushan's doorman, and killed the doorman after interrogation.

At this time, Xuanzong gave An Lushan's eldest son a marriage and invited An Lushan to come to watch the ceremony, the eldest son An Qingzong has been preparing for the wedding with the lord of Rongyi in Chang'an.

In An Lushan's opinion: Yang Guozhong dared to act like this, and he must have been instructed by Xuanzong.

As long as he goes to Chang'an to attend his son's wedding, he will definitely be carefully cut into pieces by the knife and axe players who smashed the cup at the wedding banquet.

Based on this judgment, in the end, An Lushan said that he was ill and did not go to Chang'an, and intensively prepared for a rebellion.

However, half a year later, An Lushan and Shi Siming raised troops in Hebei under the slogan of Qing Jun's flank punishment of Yang Guozhong.

At this point, the Anshi Rebellion, which lasted vigorously for eight years and had no winner in the end, officially kicked off. 】

Li Shimin had already recovered and was rubbing his head.

But seeing Tang Xuanzong fighting against the world for An Lushan, the familiar feeling came back in an instant.

However, it may have been that the pill that was still bitter in the mouth had taken effect, and the headache had been reduced a lot.

But Li Shimin still jumped to his feet and scolded angrily:

"Is this An Lushan a fox demon Ah Zi? So confusing? ”

"I thought it was this Yang Yuhuan who caused chaos in the dynasty, so it seems that the blame is only Xuan and An!"

It was only after the ministers persuaded and persuaded Li Shimin that Li Shimin was finally calmed down.

Hou Junji couldn't agree with what His Majesty said:

"From this point of view, the three towns of Heshuo are not rebels, but it is actually this An Lushan cronies who have seized the throne so that they can be fully controlled."

It is precisely because of this that everyone is difficult to accept, Fang Xuanling counted it again:

"An Lushan's rebellion, known to the people, known to the ministers, and will be known, is an open secret."

Du Ruhui disagrees:

"Xuanzong also knows An Lushan's rebellion, but he really doesn't believe it."

As for whether Xuanzong believed it from the bottom of his heart, or did he dare not believe it.

Du Ruhui didn't know, but it had become an established fact after all, and it was useless to dwell on these.

So in the end, he shook his head and said:

"I never imagined that the reason for the eventual outbreak of the rebellion would be so simple."

It's really simple, when the prime minister acts in private, the general of the town is suspicious.

By mistake, the fragile trust between the father and son was severed.

Wei Zheng also felt a little speechless, and concluded:

"If Yang Guozhong acted like this before An Lushan promoted and installed his cronies, it is still unknown."

"And now the thief is already in power, and it's too late."

For a while, Wei Zheng even felt sad for the loyal ministers of the Tang Dynasty at that time:

The supreme emperor has become the best talisman for the thief, who can control it?

And in the end, Li Shimin raised a question:

"A hundred years of prosperity, where are the people who are strong in the Tang Dynasty?"

……

Zhang Fei hesitated:

"This Xuanzong ...... Really not stupid? ”

In Zhang Fei's view, this is like giving a thief a sharp blade and a proper way to die.

Zhao Yun pursed his lips and said:

"Even so, this Tang Dynasty has been strong for a hundred years, and there should be no shortage of loyal and good ministers."

Such a prosperous world can still be lingered by future generations after thousands of years, so there should be no shortage of ministers of the dead country.

How can you be simply enlarged by this general, and finally start an army?

Xu Shu pinched a ground bean and threw it into his mouth, and said with a smile:

"Maybe so...... This faithful heart is dead, and the good bones have become white bones? ”

[In fact, about An Lushan's rebellion, not only the people of Chang'an know, but the whole world knows about it.

In the early Tang Dynasty, if the name of the god of war was discussed, Li Jing, Li Tao, and Su Dingfang were indistinguishable.

But when it comes to Xuanzong, there is only one person who deserves this title: Wang Zhonghei.

Wang Zhongsi is the first righteous son of Xuanzong, and there is no doubt that he is An Lushan's eldest brother in terms of generation.

His biological father, Wang Haibin, had an outstanding record in the battle against Tibet, but in the end he died on the battlefield because his allies did not save him.

At that time, Xuanzong regretted the good generals, so he brought Wang Haibin's son Wang Xun into the palace and adopted him as an adopted son.

Wang Zhonghe's name was also changed by Xuanzong himself, asking him to remember his father at all times, and drew a big cake for Wang Zhonghe:

You are my Huo Quai, and when you grow up, you will make you a general.

Xuanzong regarded Wang Zhongsi as his own Huo Qu's illness, and Wang Zhonghe's also demanded himself with Huo Qu's illness.

When he grew up, Wang Zhonghei had strict military laws, loved soldiers like sons, took the lead in every battle, and had outstanding prestige.

In the seventeenth year of Kaiyuan, at this time, Tubo lost several battles against the Tang Dynasty, and people's hearts fluctuated.

In the face of such a crisis, Tubo Zampu went to the front line at that time to boost the morale of the front line, and paraded in Yubiaochuan to perform martial arts.

When Wang Zhonghei, who was stationed in Zhangye at that time, heard this, he instantly judged that this was an opportunity.

So 700 elite crossbowmen were raised overnight, wanting to do the old things of Huo Qu's illness.

The 700 Tang soldiers were all three horses, wearing helmets and armor, and galloping on horseback.

The cold night in the Western Regions also floated a thick fog, but Wang Zhongsi accurately judged the direction and ran for 300 kilometers overnight.

When he arrived at Yubiao River, the dense fog suddenly dissipated, and in front of Wang Zhongsi were 20,000 soldiers of Tubo Zampu.

Neither the Tang army nor the Tubo army expected to suddenly encounter the enemy at such a close point, and the Tang army generals were shocked and wanted to retreat and suppress them with crossbow machines.

Wang Zhongsi shouted:

One foot has not moved, chasing and shooting, no dare to move, watch me break it!

After saying that, the gods will ride into the battle alone, and all those who block them will be wasted, and the Tubo army will be in an uproar for a while.

And the 700 Tang Army did not hesitate, immediately abandoned the crossbow machine, and followed Wang Zhongsi into the enemy formation.

The flags are dense, and the long lances are like forests, but they can't stop Wang Zhonghei, and a Tibetan general riding a white horse wants to save morale, but he is also cut off the horse.

At this time, Tubo Zampu made the same judgment as Sun Quan at the beginning, and climbed the high ground to observe the reality of the Tang army.

However, the retreat of the banner of the Chinese army in Tubo Zampu has caused the morale of the Chinese army, which has been repeatedly hit, to fall to the bottom.

Wang Zhongsi seized the opportunity, broke and fled with 20,000 people with 700 men, beheaded thousands of ranks, and built a capital to deter the enemy on the spot.

Then these 700 people rushed back to Zhangye with tens of thousands of cattle and sheep they had obtained.

After that, Wang Zhonghei successively broke the Xi and Khitan coalition armies, surrendered the 36 Khitan divisions, and beat the Tubo to avoid his edge, and raised his power in the Western Regions, and no one could beat his edge.

is not only the son of the Tang Emperor, but also an immortal general, Xuanzong gave Wang Zhongsi a very high trust, and Wang Zhongsi also returned an incomparably brilliant record.

This pair of monarchs and ministers really seem to get along like Han Wu and Huo Quai. 】

At this time, in the Ganlu Palace, Li Shimin suddenly lost his head and legs, and stood up and exclaimed loudly:

"This is my Tang God General!"
