Chapter 21 The general has never died in battle, but the most poisonous thing is the villain's heart
The hut can't keep the wind and snow at bay, but it can give people comfort.
Zhang Xun in the wind and snow listened to Mo Sheng describe the details of An Lushan's rebellion, he didn't have the resources to know this, of course, he was not qualified to know, the small county order with the size of sesame mung beans, how many catties and taels can be in a county, and today I saw Mo Sheng, with the other party's powerful hidden door power, he was able to know the details, it was really an eye-opener, and he got a glimpse of that little bit of the sky.
Just like Yan Gaoqing and Yan Zhenqing, he only knew that there was a Yan family clan before, but he really didn't know much about these two brothers, at most he had heard of it a little, and today's convenience of Tuo Mosheng was able to know that there were many loyal martyrs in the world, and not all of them were rats who fled from the wind. Although such a heroic man was defeated in the end, and the end was miserable, Zhang Xun knew that although he died, the flag he held up would always stand tall and eye-catching.
Yan Gaoqing was a heroic sacrifice at this time last year, the whole family was killed by An Lushan, and the father and son were cut and eaten by An Lushan alive, and suffered torture, Yan Gaoqing was iron-clad, and scolded An Lushan while being tortured, An Lushan was angry, so he let people cut off his tongue, just like that, a generation of heroes died with hatred at the age of sixty-four. Zhang Xun was silent, he was not indignant, he did not roar, and all that was in his mind was the old general who was tied to a pillar and scraped, and he was still scolding endlessly. He knew that his ending was likely to be like that, but when it came to the day he was bound, would God ever know, would the emperor ever know, and the people would ever know?
In the first month of last year, I looked at Changshan and wanted Suiyang!
He still has a long way to go, but it can be short!
An Lushan is a cruel murderer, but for Yan Gaoqing, it is extremely serious.
After He Qianqian was captured, in order to make a living and give full play to his ability, he said this to Yan Gaoqing:
"General Yan, now that you want to serve the imperial court, you should not only be good at the beginning, but also cautious at the end. The army you have raised is a rabble, and it is difficult to resist the enemy, so you should go deep and strong, and wait for your work, and do not compete with the enemy. Wait until the Shuofang army arrives, they can attack together, and spread the book to the counties and counties of Hebei to cut off their back roads. Now you should say to the outside world: Li Guangbi led 10,000 horses out of the well. He also sent someone to shout to Zhang Xiancheng, the general of the rebel army besieging Raoyang: Most of the soldiers in your command are regimental training soldiers, and there are no strong armor soldiers. It is difficult to resist the Shanxi soldiers commanded by Li Guangbi. After hearing this, Zhang Xiancheng will relieve the siege of Raoyang and leave, which is a big trick. ”
This is the last plan of He Qianqian's life, vicious and tricky, directly cutting into the weakness of An Lushan, Yan Gaoqing listened to his plan, repeatedly scrutinized and considered, and felt that it was indeed clever, and it was really his own people who understood his own people. So he adopted He Qianqian's strategy, and immediately sent people to start planning, repairing the city and arranging people and horses to prepare materials.
He Qianqian's plan was too godly, Zhang Xiancheng was so frightened that he fled without a fight, and the regimental training team he commanded was also in ruins, and there was an uproar. Yan Gaoqing then took the opportunity to send his henchmen to lead troops into Raoyang City, he comforted the soldiers who defended the city, built the city to collect troops and train soldiers, and waited for the rebels to attack. Immediately afterwards, he issued a message to various counties and counties in Hebei, which clearly stated that the imperial court had appointed Li Wan, the king of Rong, as the generalissimo of Hebei soldiers and horses, and Ge Shuhan as the deputy marshal, commanding an army of 300,000 troops, and was about to send troops to Tumen, and would soon exterminate the remnants of An Lushan. The counties and counties of Hebei are in fire and water, drifting with the wind, those who are afraid of the rebels either surrender or flee, and those who have the heart to resist the thieves do not know the movements of the court. The team with the goal soon settled down, morale was long, and they killed the rebels who stayed behind, responded from far and near, a total of fifteen counties changed hands before and after, and were regained control by the Tang army, and the garrison was claimed to have more than 200,000 people for a time, so the form was extraordinary, on the other hand, only Fanyang, Lulong, Miyun, Yuyang, Ji, and Ye were left to surrender to An Lushan.
Yan Gaoqing's move can be described as a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle, An Lushan has suffered the biggest disaster since the incident, Yan Gaoqing is not only arson, but also ready to pour another handful of oil. He secretly sent his right-hand man Ma Sui to steal into Fanyang County to appease Jia Xun, the guard of An Lushan's hometown. Ma Sui, a native of Jiacheng, secretly entered the lair of the thief camp, and he advised Jia Xun, the guard of the An Lushan base camp:
"An Lushan is rebellious and unpopular, although he has occupied Luoyang, he will eventually die. If the general can kill his rebel generals, return to the country with Fan Yang, and dump his lair, he will make a great contribution to the world. ”
Jia Xun is also an extremely thoughtful person, he is a character who would rather not work than make mistakes, An Lushan takes a fancy to him, and he will rest assured that his base camp will be in his hands. After listening to Ma Sui's words, although Jia Xun made a verbal promise, he compared the gains and losses over and over again in his heart, and he was not in a hurry to express his position, so he hesitated. Sometimes the news is like the smell of roast chicken in the wind, and there is no way to hide it at all, Jia Xun's various abnormal actions were soon learned by Niu Runrong, the monitoring insider left by An Lushan, and Niu Runrong, who had received this great credit, kept going, and just wanted to fly to An Lushan like wings.
At this time, An Lushan had just captured Luoyang and came to this rich imperial capital, and everyone was still carnivaling.
The rebels have been in the bitter cold land of the border for many years, and they have lived with foreign countries fighting for their lives, and they have heard of the wealth of the Central Plains, especially the legendary Guanzhong women with tender flowing water, these border soldiers are even more eager for this, and now they have rebelled with An Lushan, and finally have the opportunity to taste their long-cherished wishes, all of them are blood-red like wolves and tigers, so the rebels go, every time they get a city, whether it is a battle or a surrender, An Lushan will condone the soldiers, they plundered all the property, food, clothes and women in the city, Whipping the men in the prime of life to deliver supplies for them, treating the old, the weak, the sick and the young as playthings, playing with knives and guns, and killing them with laughter when they had enough.
The more the city is broken, the fatter the rebels eat, the Sheng Tang Dynasty, which has been comfortable for almost a hundred years, is really rich, and those water-like women are really soft fingers, and they are all grinding steel by the belly of these little ladies and almost can't get out of bed, but when I think of the more gold and silver I go to Chang'an, the whiter the girls are, and these soft-footed shrimp suddenly become Jiao in the waves.
An Lushan was very happy, the more excited the sergeant, the more relieved he was, because when people were excited, they were not afraid of pain or death, he just let these people go to death, and exchange their death for a more enjoyable life. Living in the mighty palace where a generation of empresses lived, he fantasized that he had become the female majesty who was courted by all nations, enjoying the prosperity and wealth of the eastern capital.
A few days after the good days, An Lushan was dreaming beautifully, and suddenly his subordinates reported that his backyard was on fire, and more than half of the Hebei counties that had jumped out of the flesh and blood were reversed. This can make An Lushan shocked. He flipped the table, smashed everything in his sight, and called Yan Zhuang again, asking him why Yan Gaoqing would take the lead in rebelling against him. Although Yan Zhuang is the nominal prime minister, in charge of all the rebels, but after all, he can't let everyone listen to him, the more An Lushan thinks about it, the more shocked he becomes, the more shocked he becomes, he is afraid that his efforts will be in vain, he is afraid that he will be finished, he doesn't want to be finished, he quickly summoned his subordinate Han Chaoyang into the palace to discuss matters, while reprimanding Yan Zhuang who recommended Jia Xun, and finally said that "Yan" sounds the same as "Yan", and Yan Gaoqing Yan Zhuang's surname is the same as the same sound, which is also intended to rebel. Yan Zhuang suffered such an unwarranted disaster, and he was even more speechless. When Han Chaoyang arrived, he saw An Lushan dragging a body of fat, whipping the two of them with a whip in his hand, and the two people who were whipped on the ground and didn't know whether they were alive or dead were Yan Zhuang, the first person in the internal official, and Li Zhu'er, the first eunuch in the inner service.
An Lushan saw Han Chaoyang coming, and threw a few more whips at the two, and then explained to Han Chaoyang how Jia Xun had a heart, and asked him to lead people to Fanyang City quickly, secretly dispose of Jia Xun, and ensure the stability of Fan Yang's hometown. It wasn't until he got out of An Lushan's main hall that Han Chaoyang felt that his legs were paralyzed, cold sweat was like rain, and the two powerful celebrities were beaten unconscious by their masters.
Han Chaoyang arrived in Fanyang, pretending to have something to tell, Jia Xun did not know that the matter had been revealed, and was hanged by the strong man ambushed by Han Chaoyang, and then the whole clan was wiped out to set an example, and then An Lushan ordered Niu Tingjie to be in charge of Fanyang's military to strictly prevent the infiltration of the enemy army. As soon as poor Ma Sui arrived in Fanyang from Han Chaoyang, he knew that this matter had leaked to the bottom, and quickly fled into Xishan. After there are life-threatening chasing soldiers in front of the mountain road, panic no direction, is in a dilemma of life and death, suddenly appeared a fairy wind bone long hair and white beard of the old man, this old man called himself Xu Yu, is this mountain hermit, knowing that he is in trouble today, specially to help, Ma Sui panicked and did not choose the road, desperate life can not care about what is true or false, with this person turned left and right, a few miles later came to a hidden plain, quite Tao Yuanming's peach blossom source meaning, he didn't have time to ask how there is such a vast plain between these mountains, The remnants of the death alone were enough for him to recover for half his life.
After arranging Fan Yang's affairs, Yan Gaoqing's affairs must also be resolved, it is said that at this time, the military power of the two counties of Changshan and Pingyuan has been greatly enhanced, and the spark has the potential to burn the prairies.
An Lushan, who has been stationed in Luoyang for many days, originally planned to let the army continue to attack westward, and the cavalry at the forefront had arrived in Xin'an, and he wanted to personally lead the troops to break through Tongguan, and then take Chang'an with all his might, so as to capture the old emperor, but suddenly heard that there was a change in Hebei, so he had to immediately order the large army to turn around and return to Luoyang, and then summoned Shi Siming and Li Lijie to lead more than 10,000 people to attack Boling and Changshan County, and made the general Cai Xide lead 80,000 troops to attack north from Hanoi, and he was bound to take down the heads of Yan Gaoqing's brothers, in order to vent the hatred in his heart!
An Lushan's backyard was set on fire, but Xuanzong was looking for excitement for himself!
Feng Changqing lost Luoyang, Gao Xianzhi lost Shaanxi County, although both of them suffered losses from the enemy, but fortunately they also stumbled over the legs of the rebels, stumbled and retreated to Tongguan, and merged into Geshuhan's army. The terrain of Tongguan is dangerous, the garrison army is sufficient, more than 100,000 people defend according to the danger, sharpen for a few days, do not worry about fighting and not winning that An Lushan, after all, Gao Xianzhi Feng Changqing has also been washed out of blood for decades, and he accidentally ate a dumb loss, turned over and took a breath, who wins and who loses, this revenge must be avenged, and the blood debt must be paid with blood!
Speaking of this paragraph, Mo Sheng was also a little embarrassed, he knew the skills of Gao Feng and the others, and he also felt sad that they ended up like that just because they offended the villain.
Feng Changqing Gao Xianzhi didn't wait for An Lushan's blood, they still couldn't be ashamed of themselves, not because they were incapable, but because someone was in a hurry.
"You two shit, you should have died a long time ago."
The only person who can say that the two of them should be damned is the wise and wise Emperor Majesty.
The conversation rushed to Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing, and Mo Sheng took the opportunity to tell Zhang Xun the experience and story of these two people.
When Gao Xianzhi led the army to the east, the emperor sent a henchman as a supervisor, and this henchman was a eunuch named Bian Lingcheng. Bian Lingcheng and Gao Xianzhi are old acquaintances, and even Gao Xianzhi's life-saving benefactor.
Gao Xianzhi is a person, handsome, strong in martial arts, brave and resolute, good at riding and shooting, although he is a Goguryeo, but he grew up in Anxi since he was a child, he reads Chinese characters, speaks Chinese, and marries a Han wife, and has nothing to do with the stick except for blood. Gao Xianzhi's family background is strong, his father is a guerrilla general Gao Sheji, he entered the Tang Dynasty with his father when he was young, and he was worshiped as a general in his twenties, and his father has the same rank. Gao Xianzhi successively served under Tian Renwan and Gai Jiayun under the Jiedu envoy of the four towns of Anxi, but none of them were reused. Later, when Fumeng Lingcha served as the envoy of the festival, he discovered Gao Xianzhi, a great young talent, and promoted him again and again. By the end of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, Gao Xianzhi had been appointed to the deputy capital of Anxi and the four towns to know the soldiers and horses.
When Gao Xianzhi was in charge of the soldiers and horses, every time he went out to the army, there were more than 30 people with his entourage alone, and each of them had bright clothes and full of cards. Feng Changqing, another general under Fumeng Lingcha, saw that Gao Xianzhi was very talented and handsome, and he also wanted to become Gao Xianzhi's entourage, so he impassionedly submitted a letter to Gao Xianzhi, and Mao recommended himself. But Feng Changqing's own image is very poor, not only is he thin and thin, but he also has slanted eyes and crooked mouth, and his feet are short and lame. After Gao Xianzhi saw Feng Changqing, he thought he was ugly and was unwilling to accept it. After failing on the first day, Feng Changqing did not lose heart, and submitted the book again on the second day, but continued on the third day and the fourth day. Gao Xianzhi was overwhelmed with annoyance, the attendants had been admitted enough, where could they use it again! Feng Changqing was also stunned, he only knew that he admired the other party's high righteousness, was willing to follow the other party, and ignored Gao Xianzhi's refusal, he felt that this immortal-like general should not be unconventional, and he would not mistake Ziyu because of his ugly appearance. Gao Xianzhi still didn't accept him, the meaning was very clear, you are too ugly We don't want to play with you, but we can't stand Feng Changqing being courteous at the door every day, Gao Xianzhi was so grinding that he had no choice but to admit Feng Changqing to the waiter, and finally became friends with this ugly guy.
Gao Xianzhi is not only beautiful, but also more beautiful, when Tubo occupied Xiaobolu, the Tang Dynasty sent troops three times without light, so in the sixth year of Tianbao, the emperor ordered Gao Xianzhi to be the envoy of the camp. Gao Xianzhi led the army to attack and outwitted Xiao Bolu, and the court was greatly invigorated and promoted him to the envoy of the Anxi Festival. In the ninth year of Tianbao, Gao Xianzhi attacked Shiguo again, first made peace, and then raided, capturing its king and subordinates. The following year, Shi Guo led the Great Eclipse to attack, and Gao Xianzhi attacked the Great Eclipse and returned defeated. Later, he was recalled to the court by the court, and was awarded the three divisions of the opening of the Fuyi and the right Yulin.
The origin of Gao Xianzhi and Bian Lingcheng was in August of the sixth year of Tianbao, when Gao Xianzhi beat Xiao Boluguo. At that time, Gao Xianzhi had already won the victory, and was escorting the little Bolu king and the Tubo princess to return victoriously through the Red Buddha Hall. In the wind of September, it was all the taste of success, and the victorious Gao Xianzhi Feng Changqing army marched to Lianyunbao in Bolechuan, and joined the long-awaited Bian Lingcheng people, and then returned to Hexi County together. At the end of September, Gao Xianzhi returned to the army and came to Bomichuan, so he ordered his subordinate Liu Dan to draft a good report, and sent the Chinese envoy Wang Tingfang to Beijing to win the victory. Because he didn't know in advance that he would be the head boss of the four towns of the festival, he was jealous and resentful. When Gao Xianzhi and his party returned to Hexi, Fumeng Lingcha did not send anyone out of the camp to greet the comforters, and when Gao Xianzhi came to him, he didn't say a word, and scolded Gao Xianzhi in front of thousands of people:
"Goryeo's minions, from whom did Khotan get you?"
Gao Xianzhi was still waiting to be appreciated by his superiors, praised by his colleagues, and adored by his soldiers, but he didn't expect to be greeted with such treatment. Gao Xianzhi, who won the battle, was confused, if it was on weekdays, someone dared to scold him in public, Gao Xianzhi had already turned the other party into a ghost under the sword, but this time it was his own boss who scolded people, and the official was crushed to death, and I don't know that this husband, who values himself very much on weekdays, and has the grace of knowing himself, is taking the wrong medicine today or being kicked out of bed by his mother-in-law, he can only hold back his anger and dissatisfaction at the moment, and replied truthfully:
"It's your vigorous cultivation in the imperial history."
Fu Meng Lingcha did not give up, and asked:
"Who did you get from the town guard envoy Anxi deputy capital protector and the capital governor soldier and horse envoy?"
Gao Xianzhi had no choice but to continue to answer:
"It is also your vigorous cultivation in the imperial history."
Fu Meng Lingcha is unforgiving:
"Now that I know this, I dare to play the good news without going through, why? The slave should be killed, if it weren't for the fact that you had just made a meritorious service, I would immediately ask someone to tie you up, and cutting off your head is not a matter of my words! ”
Gao Xianzhi ate this cannon battle inexplicably, and I don't know how to be good, he was originally an extremely proud person, coupled with his achievements at a young age, favored by the emperor and court bosses, I don't know how many little ladies of the official family have sharpened their heads and want to marry into his family, the entire Tang Dynasty, during that period of time, the limelight overshadowed Wang Wei and Li Bai, so in Gao Xianzhi's heart, he is perfect, and it is understandable to be proud, only those mediocre people talk about humility and low-key, People don't take teenagers lightly, it's not that you don't want to be frivolous, it's just that you don't have that capital.
Proud people always have to pay for their pride, Gao Xianzhi only cares about acting in a high-profile manner, but does not pay much attention to the twists and turns of officialdom. As long as you do things beautifully, others will naturally have nothing to say! So in his opinion, there is nothing wrong with writing directly to the emperor, and he doesn't understand why Fumeng Lingcha reacted so much. Did I steal his little daughter-in-law or kidnap his eldest girl, and I looked like I had eaten me, if it weren't for your age, I would have beaten you up a long time ago.
Bian Lingcheng is different from Gao Xianzhi, he is a eunuch, he has been in the inner garden of the deep palace since he was a child, and he sees as much as he eats, otherwise how could he become Emperor Xuanzong's henchman without a background. Why is Fu Meng Lingcha angry, he understands very well that it is taboo in officialdom to report to a higher level, you have made meritorious service yourself, three points are yours, and seven points must be your leader, otherwise who is willing to hollow out their minds and climb up. Bian Lingcheng has a lively mind and a vicious vision, the emperor sent him to be Gao Xianzhi's supervisor, this battle is down, Bian Lingcheng knows deeply that although Gao Xianzhi is young and sharp, but over time, he must be a giant feudal official, he is very optimistic about this person, so he is willing to help him, maybe he can change a real friendship, everyone is willing to make friends with more big people, whether it is useful or not, at least he can improve his weight.
Bian Lingcheng then secretly reported this to the imperial court, and the secret report also wrote:
"If Gao Xianzhi has made meritorious contributions but dies of sorrow, who will work hard for the court in the future?"
As soon as the emperor heard that he had won the battle, he ignored the flies and dogs of the people below, and directly promoted Gao Xianzhi to serve as Hongluqing, acting as the imperial historian Zhongcheng, and replaced Fu Meng Lingcha as the envoy of the four towns, and ordered Fu Meng Lingcha to return to Beijing. Fu Meng Lingcha was scared, he didn't know that Gao Xianzhi, a young man, had such great energy, and he had humiliated him, and he didn't know if he would deal with him in the future.
Gao Xianzhi is a smart person, smart people are all "point" tricks, after the incident was reported to the next level, he was also reflecting, and later learned that it was Bian Lingcheng who defended himself on the emperor's side, first, to thank the eunuch, and secondly, to know the restrained character, and then to see the husband Meng Lingcha in the morning and evening, and salute as in the past. Fu Meng Lingcha was even more ashamed, more frightened, trembling like walking on thin ice, always thinking about whether Gao Xianzhi would suddenly attack one day.
The deputy capital guards Cheng Qianli, the general Bi Sichen, is the dog who voted for An Lushan in Luoyang, the officials Wang Tao, Kang Huaishun, Chen Fengzhong and others have always been unhappy with Gao Xianzhi, jealous of his talent and military exploits, but he has no great ability, so he has to play villain tricks, and say bad things about Gao Xianzhi in front of the chief Fu Meng Lingcha, who can humiliate Gao Xianzhi in person, and these people are also very meritorious. After Gao Xianzhi took office, he called Cheng Qianli, Fu Meng Lingcha couldn't move, after all, he was the old boss, but he could still clean up these insidious and incompetent villains.
He scolded Cheng Qianli:
"You look like a man on the outside, but you look like a girl on the inside, why?"
Cheng Qianli was forced by the situation and did not dare to refute.
He scolded Bi Sichen again:
"You took a thousand stone seed fields from the east of my city, do you remember?"
Bi Sichen could only reply:
"That's what you gave me at the time."
Gao Xianzhi is angry:
"At that time I was afraid of your majesty, did you really reward you for my pity?"
He called Wang Tao again, and after scolding him, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help but want to beat them, but now he has begun to learn to restrain his mind, and he persuaded himself for a while, so he let them go, and since then, the whole army has been cleaned up, and he has slowly calmed down with peace of mind, and Gao Xianzhi is really in charge.
After Gao Xianzhi served as the envoy of the four towns of Anxi, he joined the army with Feng Changqing as the record of the Qingwang Mansion, served as the judge of the festival, and gave the purple gold fish bag. Soon, he was appointed as a doctor of Chaosan, who was responsible for the warehouse, tuntian, jiajiao, branch, revenue and other matters of the four towns. In the future, every time Gao Xianzhi went on an expedition, he often ordered Changqing to be the envoy who stayed behind. Slowly, Feng Changqing also emerged and made a lot of achievements.
As for Bian Lingcheng, a great nobleman in his life, although he is insidious and greedy for money and profit, he does have a life-saving grace for himself, but he can't forget his roots, and he must come and go often. Over the years, the two have slowly become friends, and there are many people who move around during the New Year's holidays, and both of them help each other and benefit a lot!
This time to crusade against An Lushan, Gao Xianzhi, who was named deputy marshal, originally didn't want Bian Lingcheng to supervise the army, but Xuanzong felt that the two were familiar with each other and should be more secure, so he approved Bian Lingcheng's request and allowed him to attack with the army.
Gao Xianzhi, who was full of ambition, was determined to win, and he never thought that the benefactor who saved his life more than 20 years ago would stab himself more than 20 years later.
Heaven is a good reincarnation, who has bypassed!
