Chapter 191: Zhou Dewei hiked into Jinyang
Emperor Zhu Wen of Liang saw that none of his generals could give him advice, not only Long Ting was furious, but also said hatefully: "Recuperate for a thousand days, and use soldiers for a while." I provide you with delicious food and good use all day long, and if you don't work hard for me when you reach a critical time, it's really angry with me!"
The soldiers under his command had no good way to break the enemy, so they had to let him insult him, in order to dissipate some of the anger in his heart.
But he still muttered dissatisfiedly in his heart, this is also what your emperor has seen with his own eyes, the soldiers of Luzhou City have the same hatred for the enemy, and they will protect the whole city as solid as gold, it is indeed a hard bone to gnaw!
It's not that you Emperor Liang haven't seen it with your own eyes, if you are in Beijing now, and we report this to you, then do you still think that we are fooling you? Now you can't lead the army in person, what's the use of insulting us people?!
"Okay, since you don't have any good solutions, then at this moment, this Luzhou City can't be captured. Then I had no choice but to quit and return to Kyoto. I'm afraid that there will be a lot of dreams at night, and there will be some chaos in the capital, so why not do it?!"
This Liang Emperor Zhu Wen saw that there was indeed no good way, so he decided to simply pick his son and leave. He wanted to leave Luzhou City to Liu Zhijun and them to deal with.
As soon as Liu Zhijun and other soldiers heard this, they immediately panicked, and said in their hearts, as soon as the emperor leaves, he will leave them in this long-term confrontation with Luzhou, and he will not be able to attack for a long time.
At that moment, the generals made their own calculations in their hearts, Liu Zhijun hurriedly stepped forward two steps forward, and said: "Your Majesty, now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, why doesn't the emperor hold out for a few days?"
The emperor's eyes rolled, and he stared at Liu Zhijun with a gloomy face: "What is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? I don't understand what you said at all!"
Liu Zhijun laughed "hehe" for a while, and then said: "Now that Li Keyong, the king of Jin, is dead, and Kyushu, Hedong, has already lost its backbone, and in order to compete for the position of the king of Jin, there is infighting, and uncles and nephews are competing to kill each other, and the foundation is also crumbling. ”
Liu Zhijun paused, glanced at Emperor Liang's reaction, and saw that he was pricking up his ears with great interest, listening to his own words, the corners of his mouth grinned, and a smile that was not easy for others to detect.
followed up: "According to the spies, only Li Sizhao is a general guarding Luzhou City in the city, and Zhou Dewei has been transferred back to Jinyang by Li Cunmian, the king of Jin, I am afraid that it is also more auspicious." This Luzhou is already a lonely city without help, I think there is a wise Shenwu Emperor sitting here, and then Luzhou City is just around the corner!"
Emperor Zhu Wen listened to Liu Zhijun's words and knew that he was patting himself on the back, but he also felt that it was very useful, and he pondered for a moment, and said: "What General Liu said also has a certain truth, then I will stay for a while, and all the soldiers must work together to take Luzhou City in one fell swoop!"
Liu Zhijun was overjoyed when he heard this, because while trying his best to persuade the emperor to keep him, he also paved the way for himself.
If the emperor stays longer, he will be frustrated for one day, until one day, he completely loses confidence in taking Luzhou City, and returns to the capital, leaving himself in the future, no matter what the outcome of the battle is, the emperor cannot blame himself.
Liu Zhijun knew in his heart, not to mention that he couldn't take Luzhou City recently, he even felt that Liang Jun would never be able to take this Luzhou City!
Just as he expected, the emperor personally led a large army to attack Luzhou City for more than ten days in a row, but to no avail.
Emperor Zhu Wen of Liang saw that Luzhou City could not be captured for a long time, so he did not want to continue to stay here, because he felt that the military spirit had been a little turbulent recently, and even his prestige as an emperor had declined, which he saw from the eyes of the soldiers.
There was really no need for him to stay in this Luzhou City that had swept him away. There is no need for him to shake his foundation for this small Luzhou city.
And he suddenly felt a little unwell, and he desperately longed to return to Bianliang, Kyoto, where he lived a comfortable life. He felt that he didn't have to come to the front to charge into battle and suffer this hardship.
And he began to panic again, and the Qi people took advantage of the situation to attack him, cutting off his back road.
This Qi person, that is, Fengxiang, is based on Li Maozhen, a native of Shenzhou. Maozhen's surname is Song, and his name is Wentong. Because of the merit of asking for Huangchao in the Tang Dynasty, he was given the surname Li, and the official Fengxiang was the envoy of the festival, and he was entitled to the king of Qi, and after the death of the Tang Dynasty, he also refused to accept Liang's order.
Emperor Zhu Wen of Liang was worried, suffered for dozens of days, and finally couldn't stay any longer, so he appointed Liu Zhijun as the envoy of the camp on the west road, defended the two armies of Qi and Jin, and was responsible for attacking the city of Luzhou, and he led the army back to his home.
......
The sun was setting, and it was almost dusk, but I saw a burst of dust in the distance, and about five hundred generals rushed to Jinyang City.
When the soldiers defending the city saw this, they hurriedly blew the horn, pulled up the drawbridge, and waited for the battle.
But the sound of galloping horses' hooves stopped abruptly half a mile from the city wall.
This is exactly Zhou Dewei and other soldiers who rushed back from Luzhou City.
Zhou Dewei grabbed the reins of the horse, the horse kept looking up and neighing, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and stared at everyone: "Brothers, let's stop here!"
"Big Brother ——!"
"General Zhou——!"
Everyone's eyes were full of anxiety and uneasiness, staring at him tightly, and they scrambled to say.
Zhou Dewei let out a long sigh and said meaningfully: "Brothers, I understand your intentions, and I understand them!
Then he hugged his fists on the horse, saluted everyone with tears in his eyes, and then said: "King Jin won't do anything to me, he just wants to do anything to me, what's the use of relying on these hundreds of people? In order not to make King Jin suspicious, you still don't follow the city, or wait outside the city for the good news of the eldest brother!"
As he spoke, he took off his armor, took off his sword, and handed over a hammer in his hand to a general, "Brother, I don't bring these things, put them away for me!"
Then he jumped off the horse, raised his feet to face the afterglow of the bloody remnant sun, and walked towards Jinyang City.
"General Zhou——!"
"Big Brother ——!"
Everyone shouted in choked voices.
"Take care!"
Zhou Dewei walked forward without looking back, let out a burst of laughter, and then said: "Brothers, don't worry! People are good, although the blessing has not come, the disaster has been far away; the man is evil, although the disaster has not come, the blessing has been far away! I, Zhou Dewei, have been frank and honest all my life, so there is no disaster, it is all a blessing!"
strode to the city gate, and shouted loudly towards the city wall: "The soldiers in the city listen, I am Zhou Dewei, the guard of Luzhou City, I returned to Jinyang on the order of the King of Jin, and I want to meet the King of Jin, please put down the drawbridge, open the city gate, and let me go in ......!"
The soldier guarding the city was wondering why the men and horses in the distance had suddenly stopped, and only one man walked to the city gate on foot.
When I heard his shouting closer, I realized that this was General Zhou Dewei, so I hurriedly built a pergola and looked down. One of them shouted, "Yes, it's really General Zhou!" Okay, let's put down the drawbridge, you come in!"
Zhou Dewei, who entered the city, hurriedly rushed to the Jin Palace, and before he could enter the gate, someone urgently reported to the King of Jin, and the King of Jin hurriedly greeted him.
Seeing that Zhou Dewei was wearing civilian clothes, he didn't bring a soldier or any weapons, and came to the front on foot.
The doubts in my heart have all been dispelled, and I am really a rare talent!
General Zhou Dewei stared at Li Cunmian, the king of the Jin Dynasty, and said in pain: "Where is the spiritual seat of the first king?!"
When the King of Jin led him to the family temple in the backyard, Zhou Dewei saw the shrine of King Li Keyong of Jin enshrined on the case, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, "bang, bang" and kept kowtowing.
And then there was a burst of crying, and the painful appearance caused Li Cunmian, the king of Jin, to cry uncontrollably.
While crying, Dulwich kept banging his head on the ground, and cried bitterly: "O king, Dulwich is sorry for you! We have lived in battle all our lives, and we are like brothers, but I didn't give you a ride at the last moment, I can't bear it!"
Seeing him like this, Li Cunmian, the king of Jin, hurriedly rushed forward, helped him up from the ground, and cried: "General Zhou, don't cry, take care of yourself!"
Because, this Jin King Li Cunmian saw that Zhou Dewei's forehead was bleeding, and if he didn't stop him, he would really die!
Zhou Dewei hugged the Jin King Li Cunmian and cried, and the Jin King Li Cunmian heard the hidden grievances and helplessness from his crying.
Li Cunmian's heart softened suddenly, he knew that he was wrong to blame him, he had followed his father for so many years, he was really loyal, and he swore to defend the territory and interests of Hedong to the death.
He understood the grievances in his heart, and he felt that he had listened to the words of others and removed General Zhou Dewei from his official position, what a big mistake!
He felt deeply uneasy and guilty in his heart because he not only broke the heart of General Zhou Dewei, but also hurt the hearts of some veterans who fought on the battlefield and were loyal!
He regretted a little bit of his mistakes, he really didn't know how to say anything to Zhou Dewei, a veteran who was hurt by him? Will everyone still trust him? Will they still support themselves? Will they still support themselves like they support their fathers, will they support themselves, the new king of Jin?!
At this time, Zhou Dewei tightly took the hand of Li Cunmian, the king of Jin, and cried: "When the first king was dying, did he mention me......?
Li Cunmian, the king of Jin, nodded heavily, wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve, walked over, took the quiver from the wall, took it, and held it up in front of Zhou Dewei's eyes......
