Devil’s Advent

v3 Chapter 320: fall from the sky

Wei Zhen’s Jiedu's surname was Jia, and his name was Tianhua. He was not afraid of tigers when he was born as a calf. He once impeached Han Xianggong when he was in a letter. He bluntly stated that Han Xianggong deliberately slackened his military preparations and made Dagan Sheji in danger.

Han Sanggong is most famous for the phrase "Horang is the one who rolls at Donghuamen."

In addition, Han Xianggong was a notoriously violent temper. He claimed to be upright, so after receiving this impeachment, he simply chose not to go to court.

When a court official is impeached in this way, he usually asks for an illness. After the official is sent out, he will go back to the court again. This is decent.

However, as one of the dynasty’s Zaifu, the impeachment attacks that he faced every day were countless, and this example was not applicable long ago, but Han Sang-gong did not know what to do, but it seemed that Jia Tianhua was not pleasing to the eye, so he chose the most seemingly best choice. Appropriateness is actually the hottest trick.

Official,

Do you want me or him?

There is no choice.

Therefore, Jia Tianhua, although he did not rank No. 1, No. 2 in the rankings, and Exploring the Flower, was still one of the best in his career. He was directly demoted to Qiongdao by the official decree.

Qiong Island is located at the southernmost tip of Dagan. It is said that the climate there is hot and there are miasma everywhere. Outsiders enter, and few people who are not sick are appointed to serve as officials there, which is equivalent to a reprieve.

Whether the people of Qiongdao think that they are such a terrifying world is still unknown, but officials and literati have long regarded it as a place to "death".

I think that when Yao Zizhan was young, he used a poem "Apricot Flower Fu", which described the style of a sedan chair lifted up in the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival by a concubine's concubine at that time;

Therefore, it came out that Zaifu was furious and wanted to ban Yao Zizhan, who was still in the Hanlin Academy at that time, to Qiongdao.

After hearing the news, Yao Zizhan cried for three days and wrote 18 "Farewell Fu" and 78 "Gifts".

Parting the Fu, I recalled the scenes from birth to reading to the final entry into the imperial examination, and my past, as a farewell to myself.

Gifts are gifts to relatives and friends, to seat teachers, to friends, to colleagues, and to bid farewell to everyone.

It probably means,

what,

I'm going to be an official on Qiongdao,

what,

I'm dying.

After the transfer order was issued, Yao Zizhan gave all the concubines around him to his friends, and asked his wife to take the children back to his hometown, leaving him alone;

On that day, many people went to see Yao Zizhan off outside the capital, as if he was not going to take up his post, but to die.

however,

Not long after Yao Zizhan left Beijing, people had not yet entered Qiong Island. Suddenly there was news that Zaifu died of illness. When Xin Zaifu was in power, it was natural that the three new officials were required to take office. Yao Zizhan, who arrived at the place of assignment, was recruited back.

Yao Zizhan cried with joy and hurried to the capital.

However, Master Yao didn't go to Chengqiong Island, but this Jia Tianhua spent more than ten years on Qiong Island, and he is still doing well in Qiong Island.

There were pirates on Qiong Island. They organized and trained the islanders' armed forces, integrated the indigenous soldiers of the 72 villages in 36 holes on the island, and cooperated with the ancestral army in several great victories.

three years ago,

When the Yan people go south, the Dagan trilateral is empty, and the Yan people ask Bianhe with horseshoes, which shakes Beijing.

After the Yan Ren retreated, Han Xianggong and other sang-gong stepped down to abdicate, and the official family took this opportunity to begin to regain power.

Jia Tianhua was transferred back to the capital from Qiongdao. After one year as the Minister of War, he was transferred to the three sides and became the Weizhen Jiedu Envoy.

In fact, his life trajectory is very similar to that of Master Yao. Both have been reorganized for offending Zaifu, and his destination is Qiongdao.

But who said that Master Yao is a literary sage, literary sage, with a holy word, his life is hard.

The man Zaifu died of illness before he arrived on Qiongdao. On the other hand, Jia Tianhua’s Han Xianggong, in the dynasty, everyone is a kilometer, the recognized body bones are one of the first, if there is no Yan Ren went south, Han The prince can still stand in the court for ten years, and can compare with today's most adept at self-cultivation officials, whether I am the minister of life or you gave me the "Wen Duan".

But no matter what, Jia Tianhua, he came back, once the emperor had a courtier, but the emperor had to wait for the emperor to die. Therefore, compared to this, it is better to wait for a courtier and a courtier.

"Oh, after staying on Qiong Island for a long time, I got used to it when I was hot, but I was transferred from that place to the three sides. It's really an ice and fire."

Jia Tianhua was joking.

And the young general sitting opposite him smiled; "Master Jia, where is this? You must know that Yinlang County, to the north of us, is already considered to be the mildest place in the territory of the Yan people."

This young general talked and laughed freely in front of Jia Tianhua, because he has this capital.

For nearly 50 years, the Western Army is recognized as the most capable one.

However, the Zhong family, after smashing each other's face, presided over the situation of the Western Army for decades, it can be said to be deeply entrenched. He is the new standard bearer of the Zhong family's generation.

His Majesty even bestowed Di Ji as his wife to become a concubine in the dynasty.

It's just that when the consort married the princess, he happened to ran into that uncle Ping Ye from the country of Yan robbing the princess of Chu, and the limelight was completely overshadowed.

Sitting across from the two, there are two generals, one with a long beard on his face, an unusually heroic, surnamed Han, the fifth in the family row, and the nickname Han Laowu;

The heroic air between the eyebrows of a person is restrained, but Le Huan.

Han Laowu is famous for his main force being defeated by the Yan people three years ago when the Yan people went south, but he still rescued his father-in-law, and even fled back to Shangjing with his father-in-law. Well, under the city of Shangjing, Facing the attack of the uncle Hirano, he escaped again.

But the world praised him for his lofty righteousness and envied him that the old Mount Tai really hired a good son-in-law;

In addition, he has fought against Dayan Pingye uncle several times, and despite defeat, he still maintains a certain organizational ability. As Mr. Pingye uncle's reputation has grown in recent years, his rank has risen.

But Uncle Hirano didn't remember who he was.

When the two confronted for the first time, Uncle Zheng was still under Li Fusheng. Li Fusheng led the army to defeat the Allied Forces with the ancestral army as the Chinese army. When the army chased and fled, Uncle Zheng wanted to take this old Han. The head of five people turned out to be a hard stubble, and Uncle Zheng has always been cautious and decisively "restricted from the cliff."

It is rumored that Han Laowu once fought the big Yanping uncle in the chaos army for three hundred rounds. In the end, he met his opponent. Uncle Hirano praised him for being brave and unparalleled, and the last two were even more sympathetic to each other.

Han Laowu never denied it;

But what he didn't know was that he had indeed had the honor to look at each other once on the battlefield. If he knew the identity of that person at that time, he would turn his horse's head to get rid of the fire!

but,

If he was killed in advance, he would lose his great reputation later, and killing himself would seem meaningless.

As for the second confrontation, it was under the capital city. Han Laowu gathered a defeated army in the name of his husband and played against the uncles in peace under the capital city. Although he was defeated, he solved the danger of going to Beijing. Loyalty!

In addition, the brothers and sisters of Bailijian and Bailixianglan walked forward before turning their heads with a single sword, which also brought out the fearlessness of Han Laowu!

Of course,

In fact, Uncle Hirano only took a bath with the landlord’s house in the suburbs of Shangjing that day.

The most important thing is that it is impossible for Baili's family to give any explanation because of this incident, but in fact, their brother and sister had a great chance of killing Uncle Hirano that day.

Because there were not many guards around Uncle Hirano at that time, and he didn't meet the Jindi Sword Saint.

However, the old Wu took the operation and brought a group of mobs and attracted the attention of the Yanjun Junzhai to send a battalion of soldiers and horses, forcing Baili brothers and sisters to turn around. To a certain extent, it was Uncle Zheng of the fifth gang of Han. Surrounding.

but,

Fate, that's it, come and go.

He, Han Laowu, relied on Uncle Hirano to brush up his reputation. To a certain extent, he deserved it, and he also paid the favor. In fact, even if he didn't know it himself.

As for Le Huan, three years ago, he and Han Laowu were in a coalition army. They were defeated together, but after Han Laowu was defeated, he fled south and saved his son-in-law by the way. Le Huan, He led the remnants to the north and restored several cities occupied by the Yan people.

Of course, the so-called recovery is actually a lot of water, because the Yan people drove straight in, and many small county towns were actually passed on, and even the chief officials were not changed. When everyone saw that the king was coming, they immediately killed the chief officials who were "turned to the enemy". Welcome to Master Wang!

After the Yan people withdrew their troops, they were still as fast as lightning, and Le Huan did not have any deterrent effect, but this move was enough to earn him great political capital.

The most important thing is that the battle three years ago was really ugly. He had to pull out the generals from the short ones, and take out the generals who were still brilliant even though they were defeated for publicity.

Therefore, Le Huan and Han Laowu are now qualified to sit under Zhong Tianlang and Jia Tianhua as commanders.

"Officials these days, three letters of internal decree have come. The Sacred Heart is already clear, and the people of Yan are fighting against Chu. Then I will go to the north to expedite the Kingdom of Yan.

While talking, Jia Tianhua played with an amber ring on his left ring finger. This ring was gifted by His Majesty to comfort him for his hardships on Qiong Island for more than ten years.

Zhong Tianlang said, "The Northern Expedition is inevitable. If I don't go to the Northern Expedition at this time, but sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, it would be too short-sighted."

"Haha." Jia Tianhua shook his head and smiled. He had suffered because of his aura when he was young, so he had a bit of maintenance for the outstanding young general in front of him, and said: "These words, deserve me In the face of it, in front of the leader of Han and the leader of Yue, they can all say, but they can't fall into the memorial.

You know, there are many ministers in the courtroom who want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. "

Zhong Tianlang said with disdain; "All corpses are the generation of vegetarian meals."

Jia Tianhua sighed and said: "You can't say it like this. In fact, it is reasonable to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. The Yan Kingdom will conquer Chu, and Chu will definitely go all out. The two tigers will fight for a long time."

Zhong Tianlang opened the mouth and said: "Then if the Yan people break through Zhennan Pass and the frontier sweeps the Chu State, how will I deal with it? Throughout the ages, people who want to watch the fire from the other side, in the end, will have nothing to end."

"No, no, it's not like that, because only the loser will be labeled with the words'watching the fire across the shore'. The winner is usually'strategizing.'

Governing a big country is like cooking small food. Although I have been working hard in the past few years, I still have a big gap with the Yan people.

Three years ago, the Yan people had 70,000 soldiers and horses, and they were able to directly hit me under the capital, causing shame to the officials;

A hundred years ago, I did a 500,000 elite northern expedition. Didn't I also end up like that? Because of this, the Yinlang County of Yan Kingdom was renamed. "

Zhong Tianlang said directly: "My lord, I didn't talk about the scene three years ago. At that time, after a hundred years of peace, Yan Ren suddenly got into trouble, and I went to waste and caused a catastrophe;

But what is the cause of that one hundred years ago, are you not sure, my lord?

Back then, had it not been for those generals who suddenly attacked him, how could I be rushed down by the 30,000 cavalrymen of the North Town of Zhenbeihou when I worked hard with 500,000 elites? "

Jia Tianhua frowned and scolded:

"I'm going to mention this again."

Opposite, sitting Han Laowu and Le Huan, their faces didn't show the kind of surprise to hear the secret.

Too,

Among them, a father-in-law was also a side of the border, and a mentor was also a Confucian commander who had presided over the war in the Southwest after a stab-faced confidant. They can know some things that ordinary people can't know.

One hundred years ago, Emperor Taizong of Dagan brought 500,000 founding elites to the northern expedition.

Because he inherited the throne as the emperor's brother, and the prince from the time of Emperor Taizu, is still there.

Therefore, when the army entered the Swallow Realm from the northern expedition, several generals at that time directly launched a military remonstrance, requesting Emperor Taizong to stay in the Prince and return it to Guozuo.

In fact, Emperor Taizong was anxious for the Northern Expedition as soon as he took the throne. He also wanted to use the victory of the Northern Expedition in exchange for his prestige, so that he could suppress the leader of the army, because his brother started with soldiers and horses, and he can gather the court. But it may not be able to gather the military's mind.

But everything is prone to problems if you go too far, and the emperor Taizong never expected it.

When the army went out, facing the predicament created by the Yan people's strong walls and clearing the wild, coupled with the reason of military remonstrance, the soldiers and horses loyal to the prince and Emperor Taizong actually confronted each other on the territory of the kingdom of Yan.

Therefore, the rumors of later generations that the first generation of Zhenbeihou used soldiers like gods and used various alchemists to make their soldiers shine and start the charge. These are actually leftovers.

The real reason is that when the first generation of Zhenbeihou led 30,000 cavalry to attack, in addition to some warnings on the periphery, the internal forces of all directions wanted to fight.

And even if it were 500,000 pigs, it was the pig that was brought out by Emperor Taizu.

Even if the first generation Zhenbeihou really let go of the grasp, it would be difficult to catch it in a short time. In fact, because of the first generation Zhenbeihou's attack, the balance of internal confrontation was broken, and both sides thought that the other party had done it.

then,

The first generation of Zhenbeihou fought outside, and the various army of the country inside were happily chopped by their own people. In the end, it caused a big defeat!

When a country was first established, it often had the strongest military ethics and the strongest combat effectiveness of the army. However, the dry man was directly interrupted the backbone of the martial arts by using this scornful operation.

At the same time, he also made outstanding contributions to Dayan.

The reason why Dayan was able to subdue the desert barbarians in the past hundred years, gradually suppressing threats from the west, and started to expand eastward, is precisely because of the establishment of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.

The first generation of Zhenbeihou's power of splashing the sky was given by the Ganren initiative.

After the war a hundred years ago, there was a little benefit, that is, most of the thorns in the army died in the country of Yan, and Emperor Taizong, Hong Fu Qitian, fled back to the country in an ox cart even though he was hit by an arrow.

Although the Northern Expedition failed, the forces that his brother had left in the army were gone.

The following year, the prince established by Emperor Taizu, the nephew of Emperor Taizong, died of illness.

In the third year, a concubine of Emperor Taizu, who was named a noble king, also died;

In the fourth year, Emperor Taizu's youngest son fell into the water while on a cruise and contracted a cold and died.

Next, when Emperor Taizong was last, the Emperor Taizu almost died every year. After Emperor Gaozong succeeded to the throne, Emperor Taizu continued to maintain this tradition of sad news.

When Renzong came to the throne, Emperor Taizu's line got rid of this bad luck, but it was not because of the kindness of Renzong, but because the line of Emperor Taizu was withered at that time, and furthermore, the throne was passed on. A few generations later, the position of Emperor Taizong's line was also secured, and if he continued to start, it would be too ugly to eat.

Seeing that the atmosphere is a bit stagnant at this time,

Han Laowu said;

"Master Jia, I will finally think that at this time I should expedition to the north, sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight, and it is very likely that I will eventually be defeated by the Yan people."

Jia Tianhua's eyes fell on Le Huan.

Le Huan also got up and said:

"My lord, the final general also thinks that the Northern Expedition should be at this time."

Jia Tianhua stretched out his hand, knocked his head, and said: "Your Majesty wants the Northern Expedition, and you also want the Northern Expedition. It's impossible. People who hesitate like this official, and those who do not advocate the Northern Expedition in the court are not looking down upon it. Good traitor?"

"At the end I dare not!"

"You will not dare!"

The three generals all succumbed to the crime.

Jia Tianhua stood up and said, "The Yan people are fighting against Chu. According to the information provided by Yin Jiawei, they are already ready to throw everything out. But you should know that the Yan people still have a strong army in Beifeng County.

The last time the Yanren used soldiers, the barbarians did not move. This time, who can guarantee that the barbarians will move?

If it is the Zhenbeihou who leads the Yanjun of Beifeng County to go south again, how should our army resist?

From three sides to the north, to the capital of Yan State, it is the land of Pingchuan. "

"Fighting, it's not impossible to fight, I just need to battalion step by step, and push it steadily." Zhong Tianlang replied, "If you say ten thousand things, the results on the battlefield will eventually be achieved with one shot.

My lord, I will not be directed at you at the end, I will always admire you very closely;

However, I have been in the court, and there are too many talkers.

Now, the opportunity is right in front of me. I have won the Northern Expedition of all the troops on three sides, and I can even go straight to Huanglong. After losing, he Yan Guo is now unable to attack my dry land;

And regardless of victory or defeat, he can support Chu State. "

As long as the fight is effective, this is Zhong Tianlang's view.

"Then, who will be the master?" Jia Tianhua asked, "Who will be in charge?"

Han Laowu immediately opened his mouth and said, "Lord Zhong is in charge of him."

Le Huan also said: "Naturally, Mr. Zhong should be in charge."

On the three sides, when Taiwei Yang is in power, he can maintain the peace on the surface;

But in fact, how can a military town group that relies on smuggling and drinking the blood of soldiers to live on their lives in peace?

Weizhen, Liangzhen, and Chenzhen are collectively referred to as the three sides, but these three sides are actually very independent. When Yan and Qian did not fight in the early years, they even fought each other because of the uneven distribution of the spoils at the smuggling crossing.

Although Taiwei Yang is an eunuch, he is indeed a good player in integration. This is the real reason why the court masters also chose to default when he was the governor of the three sides.

Now Yao Zizhan is a good gentleman, and he has maintained the situation very well.

But if you want to fight and send troops, how should you cooperate?

Not to mention the three sides, there are the Western Army, the ancestral army, and other guest troops who have moved here in recent years.

Who can give orders to the armed forces?

This is not something that can be solved by the sacred will.

Qianguo is different from Dayan. The two masters, regardless of who is in charge, dare not fart the soldiers and horses below.

Therefore, counting and counting, only the old Zhong Xianggong can barely qualify.

however,

When the topic turned here,

Zhong Tianlang did not say his father's name like Le Huan and Han Laowu.

Jia Tianhua also looked at the current consort with a smile.

immediately,

Le Huan and Han Laowu also looked over.

Zhong Tianlang took a deep breath and said nothing.

Because of his father,

His father, who has been lying on a sick bed since last year,

he,

Does not support the Northern Expedition.

...

After the western army marched northward, they never moved away from the three sides.

For the Qianguo court, if the impression that the great defeat a hundred years ago has passed too far is a bit vague, then the Yan people went south three years ago, enough to impress their generation.

Therefore,

After Yan Ren left,

Qian Guo's court mobilized the power of Jiangnan, began to reorganize the new army and continue to enrich the three sides. After all, that was the first line of defense against Yan.

Because in the past few years, there has always been a consensus between the government and the opposition, that is, the Yan people are likely to attack again.

Without him,

Fight for the country,

so easy.

Many people even think that the emperor of the Yan Kingdom will regret it. If the main forces of the Zhenbei and Jingnan Army had gone south instead of attacking Jin, the gains would have been even greater, right?

After all, people with strategic vision are among the few.

It is difficult for them to understand that the Yan people's main force to open Jin is not a choice, but an inevitable, because at that time the coalition forces of the Helian family and the Wen family had almost breached the Yan people's Horseshoe Mountain defense line.

If you continue to fight, the Knights of the Three Jins will be able to go to Yanjing City to show off their power in less than half a year, so that the talented and roughly Yan emperor will experience the treatment of a state-fighting official.

Furthermore,

The last time Qianguo was in the war, it was indeed embarrassing, but it was precisely because of the existence of the three important towns and trilateral army of Qianguo that even if the Yan people had fought Bianhe, they still had no choice but to retreat and failed to occupy Qianguo. An inch of land, because it doesn't break the three sides, the Yan people can't really get involved.

Fortunately, there are many people who understand this point, so after the war, both the ruling and the opposition people agreed to continue expanding the trilateral, squeezing out the water in the trilateral military register, and rectifying the administration of officials.

The location of the Western Army was actually still in Mianzhou City, the city where Uncle Zheng once had military merits twice.

However, the Western Army built an extremely large-scale military village centered on Mianzhou City, and in recent years, it has begun a new round of expansion of Mianzhou City.

have to say,

Go big,

Still rich.

Three years ago, when the Yan people went south, they marched very fast. Except for a few state capitals, they could not really go to raid places. However, once the army was used, the northern part of the country was actually very wasted, and the Yan people also chose very shamelessly. The war before spring plowing directly affected the entire year of farming in the northern part of the country.

But even so, Ganren can still continue to deploy troops northward, continue to build cities, and at the same time maintain the normal operation of the entire trilateral system.

That night in the capital, the little six drank too much. He once said to Uncle Zheng that Jiangnan is not in the country of Yan. If his old Ji holds the anointed land of Jiangnan with his hands, his father will not say sweeping the east and dominating all summers. Now, even if he is sick and wants to attack the desert, or even go to the west after breaking through the desert, he is confident to satisfy his father.

It doesn't matter if you can play it, but at least, you can have the support and capital, and dare to do this thinking.

Therefore, this is the reason why Emperor Yan never forgets to attack. Qianguo is too rich.

Maybe it is because he is so rich that he can't fight.

At this time,

Being alone in the Western Army, it can be called a banner, and speaking in the entire trilateral system has absolute weight. Even Yao Zizhan, a sage and trilateral governor, has to be the commander-in-chief of the Western Army, Zhong Wendao Zhongxianggong, Lying on the sickbed.

An old woman is waiting for him to drink medicine.

The old woman is over fifty and is not a wife or a concubine. She is a southwestern native. When she was a child, Qian Guo calmed down the chaos. She was rescued by Zhong Wendao and has stayed by Zhong Wendao since then.

She is a servant, but has a very high status in the Zhong family.

Even when Zhong Tianlang saw her, he had to shout "Mother".

"Master, the second master is waiting outside."

Zhong Wendao opened his eyes, and there were many old spots on his face. The man who once smashed the southwestern army with one hand was... old.

The old woman looked at the man in front of her,

In my heart, very lonely.

She still remembered that handsome he appeared in front of her back then, pulled himself up on the horse, and prevented the tragedy of being ravaged by the red-eyed sergeant.

In fact, the natives do not have a national concept or national concept. In their eyes, many times, the village on the opposite side of the mountain is like Ganren, who are from other countries.

Therefore, she has no hatred of the country and the family towards Zhong Wendao.

But years are ruthlessly urging people to grow old,

The young generals who used to flee with the sword can not escape the fate of the old sick bed now.

"Let him, come in."

Zhong Wendao ordered, his voice was full of exhaustion.

The old woman nodded, and after feeding the last spoonful of medicine, she withdrew slowly.

For a while,

Zhong Wendao's younger brother Zhong Wenmian walked in. People called Zhong Wendao the old Zhong Xianggong, and Zhong Wenmian called him Xiao Zhong Xianggong.

The lintel of the Zhong family was actually supported by them.

Three years ago, the old Zhong Xianggong led the 150,000 western army to the north. Then, under the operation of the imperial court, the Xishan camp cavalry carefully trained by the western army was split out, and it was Zhong Wenmian who was in charge.

The division of the Western Army also began at that time.

In recent years, the imperial court has expanded its supply to the veteran army while vigorously training the new army, especially after the Beijing camp was abolished, the burden that swallowed countless money and money every year but was useless in wartime. The support of the army is more comfortable.

But one yard into one yard, the division of the Western Army has never been suspended. Now, including Zhong Wendao and Zhong Wenmian, the rest of the Western Army is divided into three, all originally from the other three. It also belongs to the generals of the Western Army but is under the jurisdiction of the generals under the Zhong family.

At the same time, the land reform in the southwest was also being implemented, and the court began to focus on the governance of the southwest.

However, these, in Zhong Wendao's view, are too anxious.

Although Han Sanggong and the others used their writing to restrain martial arts when they were in the court, Han Sanggong and others actually understand the principle of governing a big country like cooking a small fresh food, and they also have a deep understanding of the situation in the southwest and solve the situation in the southwest. The law is not in the contemporary era, but in the next generation, even the next generation.

Spend time in exchange for the identity of the Southwestern natives and make them think that they are dry people.

However, after the fall of Han Sanggong, the new ministers promoted by the officials claimed to be new factions and were extremely radical in doing things. This undoubtedly gave Da Gan, a great empire that was founded for more than a hundred years but has been desolate, alive, but also because of it. Be impatient and cause trouble.

For example, in the letters from his hometown in recent years, Zhong Wendao can see that the situation in the southwest has shown signs of instability.

In the final analysis, after the main force of the Western Army went north, its dominance and deterrence in the southwest have been greatly reduced, and stability should be maintained at this time.

"Brother, your illness is getting better, right?"

Zhong Wenmian knelt by the bed and looked at his brother.

The two brothers lived together since they were young, and their relationship was also very good. Later, they followed the thorny face to settle the Southwest together. Brotherhood and friendship are inseparable.

But love is love, and the separation of the Western Army is another matter.

"almost."

Zhong Wendao said.

In the world, some old people are more afraid of death as they get older;

And some old people, the older they get, the more indifferent to the matter of life and death.

Zhong Wenmian did not expect that his elder brother, who had always stood upright, would be so depressed, he couldn't help saying:

"Brother, you will be fine and you will be fine."

Zhong Wendao smiled a little hard.

In fact, in the first two years, half a year after the Yan people had just retired, Zhong Wendao wrote to the court on the grounds that he was old and unwell, and asked the court to return to his hometown in the southwest for recuperation.

He is getting older, and he is really not used to the trilateral climate.

But at that time, how dare the court let him, the Dinghai Shenzhen, leave the three sides? He directly refused, and added an official to enter the jue.

After that, every six months, Zhong Wendao would write a letter to the court and let himself return to his hometown.

However, on the one hand, the court was dismembering the Western Army and was unwilling to let it go back to deter the situation. On the other hand, some people believed that Zhong Wendao's move was in the heart of the An court to show that he was not greedy for power.

Therefore, the court refused every time to play an invitation, and continued to be appointed as a nobleman, and even let Zhong Tianlang promote the emperor.

But only those who are really close know that Zhong Wendao really requested to return home because of his physical condition.

However, the court firmly pressed him on three sides.

Three years,

Three years,

Three years,

The influence of dissatisfaction is particularly fatal to this veteran, and it has exhausted his vitality.

He probably didn't have the chance to die in battle,

On the contrary, there is a high probability that the court, in this way, will suffer the last bit of life.

"brother."

Zhong Wendao guessed why his brother came to see him,

Immediately:

"Cu Yan?"

"Brother, the Yan people are using the power of the whole country to attack Chu. It is a good opportunity for me to do the Northern Expedition. If Chu is broken, I will do it hard and will..."

Since the Sanjin was destroyed, Qian Chu has become an alliance to resist the Yan people together.

Zhong Wendao slowly shook his head and said:

"No."

"Brother, why?"

"The Yan people are powerful, but they will not last long. The Chu people are not a scorpion, and it is very difficult to kill Chu. I should continue to work hard.

Brother, brother, brother, I know what you want, what you want.

But my brother, I can't go on the expedition. "

"Brother, but this Northern Expedition, we must..."

Zhong Wendao smiled again,

Road:

"My brother, I'm dying, and I force the Northern Expedition. Adi, Adi, do you think that when that time comes, you will support this situation for your brother and me?"

If Da Gan is the Northern Expedition,

It must be Zhong Wendao in command, the western army as the Chinese army, and the trilateral armies and various guest armies to obey the dispatch of the left and right armies.

And once Zhong Wendao's bones can't support it, then the position of the Northern Expedition Marshal will naturally slide onto Zhong Wenmian's head.

Zhong Tianlang is certainly a general star, but he, after all, is young and cannot convince the crowd.

"Brother, the officials are also interested in the Northern Expedition, and all the generals also want the Northern Expedition. Brother can rest assured that even if the Yan Ren transfers the soldiers and horses of Beifeng County, my army will deal with it calmly, and it will make the Yan Ren defeated!

I don't believe it, I don't believe that Yan people can support two battles at the same time! "

"you………"

"brother."

"You don't have the ability."

"..." Zhong Wenmian.

"I worked hard. I didn't move, I was undefeated. If I moved, it is very likely... It is very likely to be defeated. The military spirit has not been well adjusted, the logistics has not been able to follow up, and the deployment has not been straightened out.

It's just that I'm in charge, that is, to maintain a surface, and I'm not convinced.

Wait,

Can wait,

Really can continue to wait. "

"When will you wait?" Zhong Wenmian's tone increased.

He simply couldn't understand his brother's choice this time, and even felt that it was unreasonable!

Yao Zizhan once wrote a piece of fu, bluntly, through the ages, it is easy to fight, and he knows that the main battle can get a good name, avoid battles and seek peace, and success is also infamous and defeated. Therefore, the main fighters are not all loyal and good, and those who avoid fighting and seek peace also have the painstakingly lonely generation.

Many people think that Yao Zizhan's essay is a serious and official article, which is wiping the **** for Da Gan's "benevolence" to Yan Guo in the previous century.

But there is actually an inevitable truth in this.

Zhong Wendao straightened up,

Road:

"Wait for him to Yan Guo, exhausting his national strength!

Wait for the Emperor Yan to die! "

"Brother, as a general, how can you pin it on these?"

Zhong Wendao sneered:

"I can't beat it."

"you………"

"Forced to fight another one is nothing more than repeating the old things a hundred years ago. As long as the thorny face is alive, I will do my best. There is also the Yan Kingdom, and the Yan Kingdom... that... the characters from the North and the South can dominate the military's mind.

Me, I Zhong Wendao, the first one is...to lead the horse, the first...please fight! "

After saying these words,

Zhong Wendao coughed violently again.

The old woman waiting outside immediately came in and began to calm her back.

After it calmed down a bit,

Zhong Wendao sternly said:

"Di, you took Xishanying, brother, I don't blame you, everyone has aspirations, and brother understands.

But you don’t want to take charge of the Northern Expedition in my name,

Brother, I have to be responsible for the lives of hundreds of thousands of erlangs in the frontier army!

Brother, you don't have this ability, don't bring harm to the country and the people! "

Talking,

Zhong Wendao slapped on the bed, glaring at Zhong Wenmian angrily.

Zhong Wenmian was angry and angered and prejudiced that his elder brother like this still couldn't happen.

Can only do this:

"Brother rest and recuperate well."

After talking,

With a wave of sleeves,

Leave directly.

The old woman stretched out her hand and continued to stroke Zhong Wendao's back without saying a word. She never interfered with outside affairs, that is, family affairs, which had nothing to do with Zhong Wendao's work and body, and she did not mix with it either.

Zhong Wendao took a long sigh of relief.

Lying down again,

Closed his eyes

After confirming that he is asleep,

The old woman carefully pressed the corner of her quilt, got up and walked away lightly. She was outside the bedroom with a bed.

I don’t know how long I slept,

Zhong Wendao slowly opened his eyes,

He looked outside,

Outside,

It's dark already.

Zhong Wendao was a little thirsty and wanted to call the old woman to come in and pour himself a glass of water.

But on one side of his body, he fell off the bed.

No pain,

It doesn't hurt at all,

He even stood up by himself.

Immediately afterwards, he walked to the coffee table, poured himself two cups of tea, and drank it.

immediately,

He walked out of the bedroom.

As soon as he got out of the bedroom, he saw the old woman walk in with porridge.

"Master, master!"

The old woman immediately stepped forward and supported Zhong Wendao. She didn't know why Zhong Wendao suddenly got up.

"In the house, I was so bored, take me, take me out for a walk."

"Master, it's windy outside."

"obedient."

"Yes, sir."

The old woman immediately ordered to go down and prepare the sedan chair.

Immediately, the guards in the palace were immediately alarmed. When they saw Zhong Wendao walking in front of them, smiles appeared on everyone's faces. Their old Zhong Xianggong seemed to be well.

Only the old woman was secretly wiping tears after she helped Zhong Wendao into the sedan chair.

Lift up the sedan chair.

Under Zhong Wendao's order, the sedan chair came to the north wall of Mianzhou City.

Zhong Wendao got off the sedan chair, turned his head, and said to the guards who had previously helped him lift the sedan chair:

"Hehe, when I was young in my early years, I really didn't expect that I would sit in a sedan chair in the future;

At that time, I thought, after death, everyone has to go into the coffin. Why do the civil officials always like to sit in and try in advance, so anxious? "

"Hahahahahaha..."

The guards laughed immediately.

In the big army, it is also a kind of ethos to mock the civilian officials.

Zhong Wendao climbed up the stairs, walked up the city wall, waved his hand, beckoning his guards not to follow up, he wanted to be alone and blow the hair.

In fact, it is summer, the evening breeze is not cold, and it can give people a refreshing and pleasant feeling of comfort.

After Zhong Wendao walked up the last step, he began to gasp, sweat oozing out of his forehead.

Reached out and wiped it.

Myself,

It's been a long time since I sweated.

He subconsciously wanted to support the wall with his hands, but saw a person sitting there.

The man was eating a roast chicken in his hand, and it was delicious.

Zhong Wendao is hungry,

He walked over, and he wanted to eat too.

The man was young, in his thirties. Seeing him, he didn't seem to be in the slightest fear. Instead, he asked;

"Want to eat?"

Zhong Wendao nodded, like a child, stretched out his hand, wanting to catch the roast chicken.

"Have your paws washed?"

Zhong Wendao shook his head.

"Then I won't give you food, as I said a long time ago, in this southwestern land, there are a lot of miasma, rain is frequent, and the military village must be clean, otherwise it will be easy to get sick. This sickness is also easy to spread.

Wen Dao, Wen Dao, I have said many times, why didn't you take it to heart? "

"Hands, clean."

Zhong Wendao replied, "Just come out of the house, it's not dirty."

Immediately afterwards,

Zhong Wendao added:

"Listen to your instructions, I will pay attention to cleanliness in the army village of the West Army in the future."

"Reward you a chicken leg."

The man pulled out a chicken leg and handed it to Zhong Wendao.

Zhong Wendao took the chicken drumsticks, did not rush to eat, but smiled while holding the chicken drumsticks.

"What's the matter, you have to leave this to your brother? If you want me to say, your brother is also a reward from his brother, he is really embarrassed to use it every time he eats.

When you are an older brother, you really have to love your younger brother, but your younger brother has to be grateful, otherwise, be careful to raise a white-eyed wolf. "

Zhong Wendao sniffed,

Shook his head,

Shouted:

"Marshal, Wen Dao, Wen Dao misses you."

Hearing the words, the man smiled, put down the roast chicken in his hand, and said, "What do you think of me, don't think about me, I'm there, and I can live very easily."

"Marshal, Marshal, Jin Country, Jin Country is gone."

"No, it's gone."

"The Yan people are fighting against Chu State."

"Fight, just fight."

"It's a pity that you are not here, otherwise we will be able to expedition to the north."

The man laughed,

Reach out his hair,

Showing a full profile face,

Pointing to the words above,

Road:

"Counting on me, what count on me, see clearly, see clearly, I am a thief in the army!

Is in the court,

In the Privy Council,

On the streets of Shangjing,

I can also from the eyes of those who look at me,

Look at their contempt for me.

Wen Dao, this world is not right, really wrong, very wrong.

Why can these poor and poor people who can only chant poems and write moral articles stand on top of our heads?

Do they dare to reciting poems with Yan Ren?

Do they dare to talk about moral essays with the southwestern people?

They dare not,

They really dare not,

But they dare to **** on our heads,

Why! "

The more the man talked, the more excited he got.

Zhong Wendao's eyes also began to turn red and red. He clasped his hands and echoed:

"Yes, why, we protect their glory and prosperity, protect them from singing and dancing, but they still use us as thieves, current slut.

A group of wine sacs and rice bags, a group of waste rice buckets, a group of offal, a group of bastards, a group of beasts! "

Downstairs, although the guards did not go up as instructed, they still waited silently by the stone ladder.

"Listen, we're handsome, doesn't the profile picture seem to be cursing?"

"Haha, it should be the man who has been lying on the bed for too long, and he was panicking. Now that he is better, he wants to vent his anger by cursing."

"Yes, I haven't been scolded by the commander for so long, but I am a little uncomfortable."

"You cheap leather."

On the wall,

Zhong Wen's cursing was happy, and the cursing was more comfortable.

He looked at the man in front of him,

Road:

"Marshal, it would be great if you were still there, and if you were always there, it would be great.

Three years ago, didn’t you know that 70,000 Yanren, 70,000, only 70,000 Yanren, 70,000 Yanren would be able to hit us under the capital!

Straight girl thief,

I do,

What exactly is going on?

Marshal, if you are still here, according to what you said at the beginning, after we calm down the southwest, we should go to the north to find the Yan man to settle the account and go to Yixue a hundred years of national shame.

It would be great if you didn't leave. "

The man's emotions calmed down, he reached out his hand and patted the wall, and said:

"It's good to go. I don't have to go to see and listen to these smoky things. I can feel more comfortable in my heart."

"Yeah, you feel at ease, but what about me, what about me?"

"Wen Dao, I have suffered you."

"No bitterness, I should, who told me that when you were imprisoned in Beijing, I blocked the petitions of the brothers under your command?

This is what I deserve, what I deserve, Zhiniang thief, what I deserve! "

"Wen Dao, I didn't blame you."

"But handsome, I can't get through this hurdle in my heart!"

"It's hard to get by, is it important? It doesn't matter."

The man turned around, facing south,

Road:

"It's just a pity, peach blossom stuffed, not enjoyable."

"Marshal, my brother, Wen Mian, want to lead the army to the Northern Expedition."

"Hahaha, hahahaha..."

The man seemed to have heard something extremely ridiculous, and he laughed, bending over, and laughing so hard that he couldn't breathe.

"Haha, hahaha..." Zhong Wendao followed with a smile.

The man laughed and scolded:

"Which green onion is he Zhong Wenmian, a young guy who leaned on you, Yu Yin, who was a big brother, did not encounter any big battles, and thought he could go to heaven or not?"

………

At this time, after learning that his elder brother got up, his complexion improved, and he came to the city wall in a sedan chair to let the wind ventilate, Zhong Wenmian, who had not left Mianzhou City and was eating with a few generals under his brother, hurriedly rode over.

"See Erye!"

"See Erye!"

Under the city wall, Zhong Wendao's soldiers saluted Zhong Wenmian.

Zhong Wenmian nodded, got off his horse, ready to go up the steps.

But at this moment, it came from above:

"What kind of green onion is he Zhong Wenmian, a young guy who came up with you, who was the elder brother..."

"..." Zhong Wenmian.

Zhong Wenmian's face was red and white, his feet did not step up, nor did he step down.

I couldn’t help but look at the guards around me,

The guards lowered their heads at the same time, pretending that they didn't hear anything.

………

On the wall,

The man smashed his fist on the pile,

Road:

"Yes, some people always think that after reading a few books on warfare, they know how to fight a war. They always feel that if you pile up the number of soldiers and horses, you can win the war.

However, the war is not fought like this, it is really not fought like this.

Wen Dao is not yours. Why didn't you grow up after I left? "

"Marshal, Wen Dao, ability, so great, to be able to hold this plate without breaking, is already doing his best."

"I'm a big job, a picturesque country, a vast land and a rich collection of people, what's the matter, except for you Zhong Wendao, who is not dead, there are not many talents in these years?"

"It's my little son, Zhong Tianlang, who is not bad." Zhong Wendao smiled, as if deliberately showing off in front of a man.

"Zhong Tianlang, how about that uncle Hirano from Yan Guo?"

Zhong Wendao stopped smiling, shook his head, and said:

"Not as good."

immediately,

Zhong Wendao realized something and asked:

"Marshal, how do you know him, I haven't had time to say it yet."

The man pointed his nose, and then deliberately put his face in front of Zhong Wendao,

Road:

"Who am I?"

"You are, handsome."

"Oh."

The man shook his head and said, "No, I am not a handsome man."

"You are the handsome, exactly the same."

"Hehe, you actually know who I am."

The brightness in Zhong Wendao's eyes suddenly dimmed after hearing these words.

"Marshal, the officials want to expedite the North."

"You just said it."

"Those who want to lose, really want to lose, a hundred years ago, it was Zhenbeihou, a hundred years later, you may still have to meet Zhenbeihou.

Hehe, the world says that the Hou Mansion of Zhenbei has suppressed the desert for a hundred years for the country of Yan, but it has also suppressed me for a hundred years, a hundred years.

Handsome,

I know what they are thinking,

They were thinking that when I went into the Northern Expedition, the desert barbarians would definitely do it. At that time, if the Zhenbeihou Mansion of the Kingdom of Yan were to go south, the Yan people would directly open their doors to the west.

If it doesn't go south, then the country of Yan will be attacked by my great army and the barbarians.

but,

but,

But the Barbarian, he is not stupid, I don't understand why they all vowed one by one that the Barbarian would send troops. Last time, did the Barbarian send troops?

No,

This time,

The barbarians will not send troops either. "

The man asked: "Wen Dao, why are you so sure?"

"Marshal, you are not old, but I am old, that barbaric king is also old, so the more I can understand what the barbaric king is thinking.

The barbarians are not the barbarians who echoed under the banner of the royal court a hundred years ago, and they are no longer there.

The Emperor Yan is best at gambling, but he, after all, is an emperor, I can feel that one of his eyes is staring at me.

Do not,

He has been staring, never moved away for a moment!

he,

He might even,

Waiting for me to go north, he is waiting.

He wished all of us, while he was still alive, mad together, mad together, and end mad together.

I don't know what Yan Huang's confidence is, but I can't be wrong, can't be wrong, really can't be wrong.

When we all thought he was an emperor, he was like a gambler;

But when we think he is a gambler, he will tell us what is the real emperor.

Last time, the world thought that the Yan people attacked, but the Yan people suddenly entered the Jin Dynasty;

This time, the world thought that the Yan people attacked Chu. Who would have expected it next?

I work **** three sides, relying on the city wall, that is definitely his nightmare;

And once the defeat of a hundred years ago happens again,

There are only these broken walls, these cold pieces, who can it stop?

Cultivate for another ten years,

Do not,

As long as five years.

With the richness, material resources and manpower of my great work, the awakened officials and public figures have the will to rise up. If I work hard, I will surely be able to sweep away the abuses that have accumulated for a hundred years and stand up again. "

The man asked again:

"But they still have to fight. They think that if they don't fight, they just gave up a great opportunity. They think that they are dull people and will be laughed at by history books."

"Yup."

"Can you keep them from fighting?"

Zhong Wendao heard this,

Silent,

After a long silence,

Zhong Wendao nodded,

Smiled again,

Road:

"can."

…………

"I must expedition to the north at this time. For one thing, I can solve the siege of Chu country. I need to know that my lips are dead and my teeth are cold. If I do my best to watch the fire from the shore and sit and watch the country of Chu being broken, I will go to the east and be completely isolated and helpless.

At that time, the Yan people had broken through the two countries, and with this general trend, they would attack me again, and I would be in danger.

Secondly, the human and material resources of the Yan people are concentrated on the Chu Chu. The country is bound to be empty. When our army goes north, the barbarians will respond. Yan will immediately fall into a trapping situation. This is a golden opportunity! "

In class,

Yao Zizhan nodded with satisfaction when he listened to the insights of Li Jiazi from Wei Zhen.

These students are basically from three sides, although they will inevitably have some dandy habits, but on the bottom, there is still a family style.

"Yes, very good, who wants to talk about it again? If you say it well, I will help you write it in the book for the teacher, and show it to the officials, so that the officials can also see. Get a false name."

At this time, a student sitting at the back stood up.

His surname is Shi, his name is Shi Kai, and his father is Chen Zhen's transfer envoy, but he is actually a child of a civil official, and he is not considered a family of military commanders.

"Shi Kai, come, talk about it."

"is teacher."

Shi Kai respectfully saluted Yao Zizhan,

Instead,

Faced with Li Chengmi, who had spoken before,

Road:

"Brother Li said earlier, if you heard me right here, Brother Li said, at this time, is it the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me to work hard?"

"Yes." Li Chengmi nodded. He just got the approval of Master Yao, and asked with some complacency, "Does Brother Shi have objections to this?"

Shi Kai nodded and said:

"I have objections, but I'm not good at it. I think Brother Li is wrong."

"Oh, please enlighten me."

"A hundred years ago, there was a better opportunity than before."

"..." Li Chengmi.

"..." Yao Zizhan.

In class, everyone stopped moving because of this.

If this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,

So a hundred years ago,

What was the time when Yan Ren was fighting a barbarian at the edge of the desert so that his brains would burst out?

We must know that back then, that was the barbarians of the peak period, their king's account, their golden family, or the supreme ruler of the desert!

Li Chengmi's face was flushed,

Point to Shikai,

Road:

"You...How dare you...How can you..."

Shi Kai did not go to see Li Chengmi again, but instead saluted Master Yao again.

Asked

"The teacher only taught us the words of the saint a few days ago and taught us to stand upright. The students have always kept it in their hearts. The teacher's teachings are often ruminating in their hearts after class.

But the student is puzzled by one thing, and I hope Master Yao will solve the puzzle. "

"It can be said." Yao Zizhan said with a smile.

"The teacher has taught us that Xia Yi must be strictly discerned and righteous in the spring and autumn.

Then I would like to ask the teacher, why did I count on the barbarians to help me when I went into the Northern Expedition, as Brother Li said?

As we all know, eight hundred years ago, Hou Yan held the order of the Great Xia Xia Zi to open the border for Zhu Xia, and then there were swallows;

And I, the great master, founding the country, used to pay tribute to the sky at the top of Dongshan, and the country of great power, Zuo, inherited the orthodox of Daxia.

The students are confused,

If this is the case, judging from legal principles and orthodoxy, both the country of Yan and our country originated from Daxia and belonged to the country of all summers.

But what does it have to do with his barbarians?

My Dagan and Yan Guo went to war, just like brothers fighting in the house.

When did his barbarians belong to one of the summers?

Brother Li said earlier, contacting the barbarians and cutting swallows together. What is the difference between this move and the introduction of foreign thieves? "

Everyone present once again failed to speak.

the reason is simple,

Dagan is a country that focuses on culture and education. They have an extremely splendid culture and the most beautiful moral articles. They claim to be a true state of etiquette and are respected by all nations.

But a hundred years ago, some things that ancestors did were difficult to clean up.

A hundred years ago, during the **** battle between the Yan people and the barbarians, Emperor Taizong made a northern expedition.

But by the way,

The three princes of Yan, Chu, and Jin were all Zheng Erba who underwent the order of the Great Xia Xia Zi, and Qian Guo, because of the Zhao family’s improper position~lightnovelpub.net~, mobilized a large number of literati to help write ancestral history, saying Home, the same as eight hundred years ago, was also a high-ranking minister under Da Xia Zi's command, and had the same status as those of the three princes.

But the big guy knew in his heart that the Emperor Taizu of this dynasty was once the righteous brother of the first emperor, and he was born in the family of a military household in Shangjing.

But Wen Xuankou was recognized in this way, and it was also promoted in this way. Everyone had to recognize it. So everyone was a family eight hundred years ago, but this is contrary to Emperor Taizong and what is being discussed now.

Yao Zizhan smiled and said;

"Ask you for the teacher."

"Teacher, please."

"If your mother is seriously ill and your neighbor next door has medicine that can save your mother, but the neighbor is unwilling to give it to you, will you steal it?"

"meeting."

"Stealing is something that a gentleman disdains."

"Of course, my mother is a big business, and the students are willing to bear this notoriety."

"Yes."

Shi opened his mouth. He knew what Master Yao meant, that he burned his eyebrows, and waited for Yan Kingdom to destroy Chu, and the next one was Dagan.

My family is about to subjugate the country, so what else can I care about righteous and unjustified?

Shi Kai leaned forward and said:

"The disciples are taught."

Yao Zizhan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He used sophistry to answer the opponent before, but in fact, it shouldn't be.

Fortunately,

At this time, the servants outside came to pass on, saying that there was an emergency military situation.

Yao Zi Zhan Rumeng was amnesty, left the classroom and went straight to the front yard to sign the detention room.

………

In the signing room,

The servant watched Yao Zizhan slumped in a chair, and said with concern for a long time without saying a word:

"Master, what happened?"

Yao Zizhan glanced at the servant.

With a long sigh,

Pursed his lips,

Road:

"Zhong Wendao, hysteria suddenly occurred last night, and died this morning."
