Volume 2 Funeral Post Chapter 76 Wanting to Capture the Past
Wang Shanxin said: "Since Murong Shizi wants to return to Liao, won't Yanmen, where your army is based, fall into the hands of the enemy again?" Nanxiangzi pretended to be surprised when he heard this, and sighed suddenly: "Oh! If it weren't for the general's kind words and reminders, it would be a big mistake." What should we do?" Wang Shanxin said happily: "You and I have already sworn an alliance and agreed to fight Zhao together. Now that Murong Shizi has withdrawn his army and returned to Liao, leaving behind a thousand heavy tasks, the Chang'an Army, as a robe, is naturally duty-bound. As the saying goes: 'Fertile water does not flow into the fields of outsiders.' Rather than falling into the hands of the enemy, Yanmen should be taken over by our Chang'an army. I don't know what the respect is?" Nanxiangzi shook his head again and again, and said: "Although this is the case, the matter is big, and I can't do it in the future." Wang Shan secretly said in confidence: "If he is allowed to go back and ask Murong Jun, first, it will be a long way and it will take time to go back and forth, and second, I am afraid that Murong Jun will be suspicious." It's better to take the bait with words, sign an agreement with him, and settle this matter, so that Murong Jun will know about it, and it will be difficult to regret it. Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "Sir, don't worry, if you have doubts, I can sign an agreement with you, and I can make a deal when you go back." Nanxiangzi's face was embarrassed, and he was silent. Wang Shanxin urged: "If Mr. facilitates this, Murong Shizi will definitely approve it." Come on, get pen and paper. After a while, the pen and paper arrived, Wang Shanxin picked up the pen, wrote it into a strip, signed it, and handed it to Nanxiangzi. Nanxiangzi pretended to be embarrassed, hesitated for a long time, and when he took it, it was written: Xiankang is eight years, and the age is worth Renyin. The general Wang and Murong Wang, the son of King Yan, made an alliance with each other: the Yan army was from Hebei, cut Yanmen and Chang'an Paoze, and made an appointment to defend Zhao together. This covenant is witnessed by man and God, and the sun and the moon are the same. Nanxiangzi saw that he had signed his name, and knew that the plan had succeeded, so he immediately signed his name, put away the covenant, and said with a smile: "Now that the covenant has been signed, I will return to my lord immediately." It will take time for the delivery of Yanmen, and the general should take over as soon as possible, so as not to lose oneself. Wang Shanxin said happily: "Sir, you can rest assured, the Chang'an army will cross the river in three days, and it will definitely arrive at Yanmen within half a month." Nanxiangzi chuckled lightly and said goodbye.
Let's say that after the city in the clouds was broken, Shi Yun was escorted by the generals and ran to Taiyuan. However, on the second day, it has arrived in Taiyuan. When Shi Hu heard the news of the defeat, he scolded angrily: "Incompetent and inferior son, dare to come back to see me?!" ordered someone to escort him to the front of the seat and ask him for the crime in person. Shi Yun knew the sin of mourning, tied the rope himself, and entered the palace to ask for the sin.
Seeing Shi Hu, he knelt on the ground, ashamed, and said: "The sons and daughters are defeated in the clouds, the city is lost, the sin is not forgiven, and they are willing to receive punishment." Shi Hu said angrily: "Well, you, the general of the defeated army, no longer need to be called father and son." This king asks you, the city in the clouds is high and deep, and you will be at ease. How could he be defeated by the Yan army?" Shi Yun had no intention of defending, and was silent. Seeing this, Shi Hu became more and more angry, got up and scolded: "I heard that you know how to use military strategy, but it turns out that it is useless! Now the city has really been lost, causing the Taiyuan portal to be opened, and Dazhao is in danger. What crime should you be guilty of?!" Shi Yunfu said: "The criminal minister did not defend the city effectively, and it caused a great disaster, so he deserved to die to apologize." Shi Hu said angrily: "The sin of the city is not redeemed." It's not a pity that you die, but in this time of crisis, you can still be useful. and thou shalt be rebuked with fifty rods, and shall be put in prison, and shall be stripped of thy title, and shall have confiscated thy property. Shi Yun thanked him and was led down by the samurai.
Shi Hu's anger did not subside, and he thought of a strategy to break the swallow. Suddenly, someone reported: "The Chang'an army crossed the river and entered the country and was heading towards Yanmen." Shi Hu exclaimed: "A wave has not settled, and a wave has risen, but the passing year is not good." After thinking for a while, he suddenly smiled again: "It's just in time." According to the king's view, this matter of breaking the swallow should fall on Wang Shanxin. Then the generals were dispatched, saying, "So so." And they took the command.
Wang Shanxin signed an alliance with Nanxiangzi, thinking that Yanmen was already in his pocket, and under great joy, he led his army to cross the river and march westward, and rushed to his city day and night. However, in three days, the army had reached the hinterland of Zhaojing, less than 70 miles away from Taiyuan. Wang Shanxin was eager to succeed, and he didn't know that the disaster of the yellow finch was not far away.
It turned out that Shi Hu heard that the Chang'an army had crossed the river into Zhao, and he immediately thought about it. He ordered the general Qiao Wei to lead the troops to intercept Wang Shanxin first, and ordered the general Fan Hao to lead the troops to outflank from the flank. As soon as the Chang'an army is destroyed, Murong Jun will break an arm, and at that time, the Zhao army will defeat Yu Wei and regain the lost ground.
Qiao Wei led his troops straight to the northwest of Taiyuan, and caught up with the Chang'an army in just one day. Fan Hao led his troops to the flank of the Chang'an army a little later. Wang Shanxin was suddenly attacked by a big enemy, and he couldn't help but be a little flustered, and hurriedly set up a formation to meet the enemy. Qiao Wei and Fan Hao saw that the Chang'an army was in turmoil, and knew that the time had come, so they led the army to kill at the same time, and the Chang'an army was suddenly in chaos.
In just a moment, Wang Shanxin settled down, commanded the people to meet the battle separately, and sat in the center himself, standing still. When the officers and men of the Chang'an Army saw the towering flag of the central general, they couldn't help but feel a great boost in the morale of the army, and gradually reversed the situation. After another half of the day, the Chang'an army became more and more courageous, and turned defeat into victory, and it had the potential to swallow like a tiger. After another battle, it was sunset. At this time, the situation was decided, and the Chang'an army defeated Qiao Wei and Fan Hao, and the two only led dozens of remnants to Taiyuan.
Shi Hu heard the news and angrily beheaded the two. Then he became agitated and distressed. I only heard one person next to me: "The king is in a hurry." At this point, only one person needs to be restarted to have a chance to win. Shi Hu said: "Who?" The man said: "It is the king Yizi Shiyun." Shi Hu was stunned for a moment, paused, and said, "It really has to be him." However, this king has broken off the relationship between father and son with him, how can he speak now?" The man laughed and said: "Since ancient times, the king let his ministers die, and the ministers have to die; It is natural that the king is the king of men, and life and death are all based on the holy will. In addition, Shi Yun prides himself on his loyalty, and when he sees the national crisis, he will not sit idly by. The king only needs to restore his official title and comfort him with kind words, and he will go out on battle. Shi Hu thought about it, but there was no other way, so he had to agree and order someone to go to the prison to summon Shi Yun.
Since Shi Yun was convicted, he has been thinking about it in prison every day, pondering the reasons for his defeat. He felt that the fortifications in the city in the clouds were strong and properly armed, and it would be difficult for the Yan army to break through the city defense without divine help, but the will of heaven would make people, and the Yan army would give up the near and far to attack the West Gate, resulting in the destruction of the city that he had carefully arranged. The defeat in the clouds was a shame he had never had since he joined the army, and he remembered it all the time in prison for a few days, and he was always heartbroken, and his heart and gall were broken, not for fame and profit, but for the sake of being ashamed of the country and his father. Therefore, the gods were saddened, but in three or five days, he vomited a mouthful of blood, and since then he has fallen to the root of the disease.
Suddenly learned that Shi Hu had summoned him, and the idea of serving the country in his chest sprouted again, and after a little thought, he stood up, cheered up, walked out of the prison, and followed the person into the palace to face the king.
