Chapter 512 Death
The Jiedushi of Wei Zhen was surnamed Jia and named Tianhua. When he first became an official, he was not afraid of tigers. He once wrote a letter to impeach the Han Xianggong. He bluntly said that the Han Xianggong deliberately slacked off in military preparation, so that Daqian Sheji is in danger.
The most famous saying of Xianggong Han is "The one who rolls the name at Donghua Gate is the good son."
Furthermore, Xianggong Han was known for his bad temper and prided himself on being upright, so after receiving this letter of impeachment, he simply gave up his position and refused to go to court.
When high-ranking officials are impeached in this way, they usually ask for medical treatment, and then return to the court and enter the government again after their official career has declined. This is called honorable.
However, as one of the prime ministers of the current dynasty, he had to face countless impeachment and criticism every day, so this example was no longer applicable. But for some reason, Xianggong Han did not like Jia Tianhua, so he chose the one that seemed to be the most suitable. Appropriate but actually the most cruel move.
Guan family,
Do you want me or him?
Here, there is no choice.
Therefore, Jia Tianhua, a new scholar who was ranked among the best and had a prosperous career even though he did not rank first, second, or third overall, was directly demoted to Qiongdao by an official decree.
Qiongdao is located at the southernmost point of Daqian. It is said that the climate there is hot and full of miasma. When outsiders enter, few will not get sick. Being appointed to be an official there is equivalent to a reprieve from death.
It is not known whether the people of Qiongdao think that their home is such a terrifying place, but officials and literati have long regarded it as a place to "die".
I think back when Yao Zizhan was young, he once wrote a poem "Ode to Apricot Blossom", which described the various amorous feelings of a prime minister and his concubine at that time riding in a sedan chair and lifting the curtains at the Lantern Festival;
< br>So there was news that the prime minister was furious and wanted to demote Yao Zizhan, who was still an Hanlin in the Hanlin Academy at that time, to Qiongdao.
After Yao Zizhan heard the news, he cried for three days and wrote eighteen "Farewell Odes" and seventy-eight "Gifts".
The farewell poem recalls the scenes from birth to studying to imperial examination and finally becoming an official. It is a farewell to one's past.
Giving means giving to relatives and friends, to teachers, to friends, to colleagues, and to say goodbye to everyone.
It probably means,
Ah,
I am going to Qiongdao to be an official,
Ah,
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 return to her hometown with her children, while he went to his post alone;
That day On that day, many people went to see Yao Zizhan off outside the capital, as if he was not going to take office but to die.
However,
Not long after Yao Zizhan left Beijing, and before he entered Qiongdao, news suddenly came that the Prime Minister had died of illness. When a new Prime Minister came to power, it was natural for the new official to take office and create something different. 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 did not go to Qiongdao, but Jia Tianhua stayed in Qiongdao for more than ten years, and he still did an impressive job in Qiongdao.
There were pirates in Qiongdao. He organized and trained the islanders' armed forces, integrated the indigenous soldiers from the 36 holes and 72 villages on the island, and cooperated with the ancestral army to win several great victories.
Three years ago,
The Yan people went south, and the triangle of Daqian was in vain. The Yan people's horseshoes knocked on the Bianhe River, and they went to Beijing in shock.
After the Yan people retreated, Han Xianggong and several other Xianggong stepped down and abdicated. The officials took this opportunity to begin to take back power.
Jia Tianhua was transferred back to the capital from Qiongdao and served as Minister of War for one year. After that, he was transferred to the three sides and became the military envoy of Wei Town.
In fact, his life trajectory is very similar to that of Master Yao. They were both punished for offending Zaifu, and their destinations were both Qiongdao.
But who calls Master Yao a literary sage? If a literary sage has the word "sage", his life will be hard.
The prime minister died of illness before he arrived at Qiongdao. On the other hand, Jia Tianhua's Xianggong Han was recognized as one of the best among all the prime ministers in the dynasty. If it hadn't been for the Yan people going south, Han Xianggong would have been killed. Mr. Xianggong can still stand in the court for ten years, and he can compete with the most good officials today to decide whether I will be the minister who cares about life or you will give me "gentleness".
But no matter what, Jia Tianhua is back, once the emperor and one courtier, but the change of emperor has to wait for the death of the emperor, so compared with this, it is easier to wait for one emperor and one courtier.
“Oh, after staying in Qiongdao for a long time, I have become accustomed to the heat, but to be transferred from that place to Sanbian is really a world of ice and fire.”
Jia Tianhua is joking.
The young general sitting opposite him smiled and said; "Mr. Jia, where are you going? You must know that Yinlang County to the north of us has the worst climate in the territory of the Yan people. A gentle place.”
This young general talked and laughed freely in front of Jia Tianhua, because he had the capital.
After nearly fifty years of work, the Western Army is recognized as the most capable fighter.
The Zhong family has been in charge of the Western Army for decades after assassinating the father-in-law. It can be said that it is deeply rooted. He is the new flag-bearer of this generation of the Zhong family.
His Majesty even gave the Emperor Ji as his wife, and she became the consort of the dynasty, and the favor was unparalleled.
It’s just that when the prince-in-law married the princess, he happened to encounter the Pingye Bo of the Yan Kingdom who snatched the Chu Princess, and was completely overshadowed.
Sitting opposite them were two generals. One of them had a long beard on his face and was extremely brave. His surname was Han. He was the fifth child in his family and was nicknamed Han Laowu.
One of them had a restrained heroic spirit between his eyebrows. It's Le Huan.
Han Laowu is famous for the fact that when the Yan people went south three years ago, after his main force was defeated by the Yan people, he still rescued his father-in-law, and even escaped with his father-in-law all the way back to Shangjing, well , at the foot of Shangjing City, facing the attack of the Hirano Bo, he escaped again.
But everyone in the world praised him for his high righteousness and envied him that Lao Taishan had indeed found a good son-in-law;
Moreover, he had fought against Dayan Pingye Bo several times, and even though he was defeated, he could still maintain his position. With certain organizational abilities, as Mr. Hirano's reputation has grown over the years, his rank has also risen.
But Uncle Hirano didn't remember who he was.
During the first confrontation between the two, Uncle Zheng was still under the command of Li Fusheng. Li Fusheng led the Chinese army to defeat the Qianguo coalition army with the ancestral army as the central army. When the army chased and fled, Uncle Zheng himself He wanted to take away Han Laowu's head, but found out that he was a tough guy. Uncle Zheng, who had always been cautious, decisively stepped back from the cliff.
There are rumors in the Qian Kingdom that Han Laowu once fought the Great Yan Pingye Bo for 300 rounds in the rebellion. In the end, he met his opponent. Pingye Bo praised him for his unparalleled bravery. In the end, the two of them even felt sympathy for each other.
Han Laowu never denied it;
But what he didn’t know was that he had indeed been lucky enough to look at Ping Yebo once on the battlefield. If he had known the identity of that person at that time , if you can't help it, turn the horse's head to get a piece of chestnuts out of the fire!
However,
If he were killed in advance, he would not have the huge fame he would later have. Killing him himself would seem to have no meaning.
As for the second confrontation, it was under the city of Shangjing. Han Laowu gathered a defeated army in the name of his father-in-law, and played chess with Ping Yebo under the city of Shangjing. Although he was defeated, he solved the problem. The danger of going to Beijing can be said to be loyal and courageous!
Moreover, the brothers and sisters Baili Sword and Thyme Orchid walked in front without even turning around after using their swords, which further highlighted Han Laowu's fearlessness!
Of course,
In fact, Uncle Hirano just went to a landlord's house in the suburbs of Shangjing to take a bath that day.
The most important thing is that it is impossible for the Baili family to say anything to explain this incident, but the fact is that the two of them had a great chance of killing Uncle Hirano that day.
Because there were not many guards around Pingye Bo at that time, and he did not meet the sword master of Jin.
But it happened that Han Laowu made a quick move and brought a group of rabble to attract the Yan army. A battalion of soldiers and horses was sent to the military camp, forcing the Baili brothers and sisters to turn back. To a certain extent, it was Han Laowu who helped Uncle Zheng relieve the siege.
But,
Fate is like this, it comes and goes.
Han Laowu relied on Uncle Hirano to build his reputation. To a certain extent, he deserved it and repaid the favor, even if he didn't know it himself.
As for Le Huan, he was actually in a coalition army with Han Laowu three years ago. The two of them were defeated together. However, Han Laowu fled south after being defeated and saved his father-in-law by the way. , and Le Huan led the remaining troops to the north and recovered several cities occupied by the Yan people.
Of course, the so-called restoration is actually very watery, because the Yan people marched straight into it, and many small counties were actually decided by propaganda. Even the chief officials were not changed. When everyone saw Wang Shi coming, they immediately killed and "surrendered to the enemy" "The chief officer is pleased to welcome Master Wang again!"
And when the Yan people withdrew their troops later, they were still as fast as lightning, and Le Huan had no blocking effect. However, this move was enough to earn him a lot of political capital.
The most important thing is that in the battle three years ago, Daqian fought so ugly that they had to select generals from short positions and use those who were defeated but still had shining points for publicity.
Because of this, Le Huan and Han Laowu are now qualified to sit under Zhong Tianlang and Jia Tianhua as commanders.
"In the past few days, the official family has received three internal edicts. The Holy Heart has become clear. The Yan people are attacking Chu, and it is already a certainty that I will launch a northern expedition to the Yan Kingdom."
Jia As Tianhua spoke, he played with an amber ring on the ring finger of his left hand. This ring was personally given by His Majesty to express his gratitude for his hard work in Qiongdao 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 a lot due to his arrogance when he was young, so he had some defense for the outstanding young general in front of him, and said: "These words are worthy of my words." Talk in front of Commander Han and Commander Le It can be said about everything, but it cannot fall on the memorial. You know, there are many ministers in the court who want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. "
Zhong Tianlang disdains it. Said: "They are all people who are eating plain food in their corpse position. "
Jia Tianhua sighed: "You can't say that. In fact, logically speaking, it is right to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. If the Yan State attacks Chu, the Chu State will definitely go all out. The two tigers will The fight is bound to be protracted. ”
< br>Zhong Tianlang said: "Then if the Yan people break through Zhennan Pass and their troops sweep across the Chu Kingdom, how will I, Dagan, fare? Throughout the ages, those who want to watch the fire from the other side will end up with nothing good in the end."
"No, no, no, that's not what they said, because only losers will be called 'watching the fire from the other side', while winners are usually 'strategists.'
Governing a big country is like cooking a small one. Xian, although I have been strengthening my troops in the past few years, the gap with the Yan people is still very big.
Three years ago, the Yan people could directly defeat me in Beijing with 70,000 troops. Under the city, the officials were brought to shame;
A hundred years ago, I led five hundred thousand elite soldiers in the Northern Expedition, but it ended up like that. The Yinlang County of Yan State was renamed because of this. ”
Zhong Tianlang said directly: "Sir, let's not talk about the incident three years ago. At that time, there was a hundred years of peace, and the Yan people suddenly launched an attack. I was doing everything in my power and wasted everything, which led to the disaster;
But don’t you, sir, have no idea what the incident was about a hundred years ago?
Back then, if those generals hadn't suddenly launched an attack, how could my army of 500,000 elite troops be directly overwhelmed by the 30,000 cavalry of the Marquis of Zhenbei? "
Jia Tianhua frowned and scolded:
"Don't mention this again. ”
Across the way, Han Laowu and Le Huan were sitting, but their faces did not show the surprise of hearing the secret.
Also,
among them, one father-in-law is also a borderland, and one of their mentors was also a Confucian commander who presided over the war in the southwest after the assassination of Xianggong. They can know some things that ordinary people cannot know.
A hundred years ago, Emperor Taizong of Daqian led 500,000 founding elites in the Northern Expedition.
Because he inherited the throne as the emperor's younger brother, and the prince who was Taizu's emperor is still there.
Therefore, when the army entered the Yan territory on the Northern Expedition, several generals at that time directly launched military remonstrances, asking Emperor Taizong to return to the crown prince and return the country to Zuo.
In fact, Emperor Taizong was eager to launch the Northern Expedition when he came to the throne. He also wanted to use the victory of the Northern Expedition to gain his own prestige so that he could suppress the military leaders, because his elder brother made his fortune by relying on soldiers and horses, and he could gather the court. But it may not be able to gather military morale.
But if everything is taken too far, problems are likely to arise. Emperor Taizong never expected the military advice.
When the army went out for the expedition, they were already faced with the dilemma created by the Yan people who fortified the walls and cleared the country. Coupled with the reasons for the military remonstrance, the soldiers loyal to the prince and the soldiers loyal to Emperor Taizong actually faced off on the territory of the Yan state. .
So, the rumors from later generations about how the first generation of Zhenbei Hou used soldiers like gods, and how he used all kinds of alchemists and warlocks to make his soldiers shine with light and launch a charge, are actually all scraps.
The real reason is that when the first generation of Zhenbei Hou led 30,000 cavalry to attack, in addition to some vigilance on the outside, the various armies inside were eager to fight.
And even if there are 500,000 pigs, they are still the founding pigs brought out by Emperor Taizu.
Even if the first generation of Zhenbeihou really let go of his grasp, it would be difficult to catch them all in a short time. In fact, because of the attack of the first generation of Zhenbeihou, the balance of the internal confrontation was broken, and both sides thought that The other party took action.
Then,
The first generation of Zhenbei Hou fought outside, while the various Qianguo armies inside were happily slaughtered by their own people. In the end, a great rout occurred!
When a country is first established, its martial virtues are often the strongest and its army has the strongest combat effectiveness. However, Ganren used this extremely arrogant operation to directly interrupt his military strength. Transport the spine.
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 suppress the threats from the west, and start to expand eastward was precisely because of the establishment of Zhenbei Houfu.
The power of the first Zhenbei Hou to shake the sky was given by Ganren on his own initiative.
After the battle a hundred years ago, there is one good thing, that is, most of the thorns in the army died in the Yan Kingdom, and Emperor Taizong was Hongfu Qitian. Although he was hit by an arrow, he was still riding an ox cart. Fleeed back to the country.
Although the Northern Expedition failed, his brother's influence in the army was gone.
In the second year, the prince appointed by Emperor Taizu, who was Emperor Taizong's nephew, died of illness.
In the third year, a concubine of Emperor Taizu, who was named a prince, also died of illness;
In the fourth year, the youngest son of Emperor Taizu fell into the water while on a cruise and was infected. Wind and cold, illness and death.
Next, when Emperor Taizong was in power, people from Emperor Taizu’s lineage died basically every year. After Emperor Gaozong succeeded to the throne, Emperor Taizu’s lineage continued to maintain this tradition of bad news.
When Renzong came to power, the lineage of Emperor Taizu got rid of this bad luck, but it was not because Renzong was so kind-hearted, but because at that time, the lineage of Emperor Taizu had already withered away. Furthermore, after the throne had been passed down for several generations, the position of Emperor Taizong's lineage was also secure. It would be too ugly to continue to take action.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stagnant at this time,
Han Laowu said;
"Master Jia, I think that at this time, I should go to the north and sit on the mountain to watch the tigers fight. It is very likely that in the end They were defeated by the Yan people one by one."
Jia Tianhua's eyes fell on Le Huan,
Le Huan also stood up and said:
"My lord, the general also believes that the Northern Expedition should be carried out at this time."
Jia Tianhua stretched out his hand, tapped his head, and said: "Your Majesty wants to go to the Northern Expedition, and you also want to go to the Northern Expedition. Is it possible that, like me, This kind of hesitation, and the court Anyone who doesn’t advocate the Northern Expedition is a sycophant?”
“The last general doesn’t dare!”
“The last general doesn’t dare!”
< br>The three generals all surrendered and confessed.
Jia Tianhua stood up and said: "The Yan people are attacking Chu. According to the information provided by the Silver Armor Guards, they are ready to risk everything. But you must know that the Yan people still have a strong army in Beifeng County.
The last time the Yan people used troops, the barbarians did not move. This time, who can guarantee that the barbarians will move?
What if the Zhenbei Marquis leads the Yan army from Beifeng County south again? , How should our army resist?
From three sides to the north, to the capital of Yan State, there is a smooth land. "
"Fighting, it is not impossible to fight. Our army will camp step by step and fight steadily. Just push the ground over." Zhong Tianlang replied, "It is said that the result on the battlefield will be achieved with one sword and one gun.
Sir, I am not targeting you, I have always admired you very much;
But there are too many empty talkers in my court.
Now, the opportunity is right in front of us. I have armies from all three sides of the Northern Expedition. If I win, I can even go straight to Huanglong. If I lose, the Yan Kingdom will not be able to attack my dry land now;
And regardless of victory or defeat, we can support Chu State. ”
As long as you fight, it will be effective. This is Zhong Tianlang’s opinion.
"Then, who is the chief general?" Jia Tianhua asked, "Who will be in command?"
Han Laowu immediately said; "Old Xianggong Zhong should be in command."
Le Huan Ye said: "Of course Mr. Zhong must be in charge."
The three sides of the Great Wall, when Yang Taiwei was in charge, were able to maintain a superficial peace;
But in fact, a military town group that relied on smuggling and drinking the blood of soldiers to live, How could they really be in peace with each other internally?
Wei Zhen, Liang Zhen, and Chen Zhen are collectively referred to as the three sides, but these three sides are actually very independent. In the early years when Yan and Qian were not at war, they even had armed fights with each other because of the uneven distribution of the spoils at the smuggling pass.
Although Taiwei Yang is an eunuch, he is really good at integration. This is the real reason why the adults in the court chose to acquiesce when he was the governor of the three sides.
Now Yao Zizhan is even more of a good gentleman, and he maintains the situation extremely well.
But if we want to fight and send troops, how should we cooperate?
Not to mention the three sides, there are also the Western Army, the Ancestral Army, and guest armies from other places that have moved here in recent years.
Who can command the three armies?
This is not something that can be solved by the Holy Spirit.
The state of Qian is different from that of Dayan. The two marquises, no matter who leads the army, all the soldiers and horses below do not dare to fart.
So, after counting, only old Xianggong Zhong barely qualified.
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 prince-in-law with a half-smile.
Immediately,
Le Huan and Han Laowu also looked over.
Zhong Tianlang took a deep breath and said nothing,
because his father,
his father who had been lying on the hospital bed since last year,
he,
The Northern Expedition is not supported.
...
After the Western Army moved northward, it never moved away from the three sides.
For the Qianguo court, if the great defeat a hundred years ago was too far in the past and the impression was a bit vague, then the Yan people's march south three years ago was enough to make their generation unforgettable.
Therefore,
After the Yan people left,
The imperial court of the Qian Kingdom mobilized the power of Jiangnan and began to reorganize the new army and continue to strengthen the three sides. After all, that was the first line of defense against Yan.
Because in the past few years, there has been a consensus among the government and the public in Qian State that the Yan people are likely to attack Qian again.
Without him,
To defeat the Qian Kingdom,
it would be too easy.
Many people even wonder whether the emperor of the Yan Kingdom would regret it. If the main forces of the Zhenbei Army and the Jingnan Army had gone south to attack Qian instead of attacking Jin, the gains would have been greater, right?
After all, people with strategic vision are the minority among the minority.
It was difficult for them to understand that the main force of the Yan people to attack Jin was not a choice, but a necessity, because at that time the coalition forces of the Helian family and the Wen family had almost broken through the Yan people's Matishan defense line. .
If the fight continues, the knights of the Three Jin Dynasties will be able to march to Yanjing City to show off their power in less than half a year, allowing the talented and strategic Emperor Yan to experience the treatment of an official in the country.
Furthermore,
The Qian Kingdom was indeed humiliated in the last war, but precisely because of the presence of the important towns on three sides of the Qian Kingdom and the presence of armies on three sides, the Yan people still had no choice but to retreat and failed to capture the Qian Kingdom, even if they crossed the Bianhe River. An inch of land, because the three sides are not broken, the Yan people cannot really get involved in Daqian.
Fortunately, there are many people who understand this, so after the war, both the government and the public agreed to continue to expand the three sides, squeeze out the moisture in the military rolls of the three sides, and rectify the administration.
The Western Army is actually stationed in Mianzhou City, the city where Uncle Zheng once received military honors twice.
However, the Western Army built an extremely large military stronghold with Mianzhou City as the center, and in recent years, it began a new round of expansion of Mianzhou City.
I have to say,
Daqian,
still rich.
Three years ago when the Yan people went south, although they marched very fast and were unable to really raid places except for a few state capitals, the northern part of the Qian country actually suffered a lot of losses during the war. They also cunningly chose to start the war before spring plowing, which directly affected the entire year of plowing in the northern part of Qian Country.
But even so, Ganren can still continue to mobilize 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, Xiao Liuzi drank too much. He once said to Uncle Zheng that it was a pity that Jiangnan was not in the Yan Kingdom. If Ji Laoliu held the sacred land of Jiangnan, his father would never leave. He said that he would sweep across the east and unify all the Xia. Even if he was ill and wanted to attack the desert, or even go to the west after breaking through the desert, he would be confident to satisfy his father.
No matter whether you can win or not, at least you can have the support and capital to dare to do this.
For this reason, this is why Emperor Yan never forgets to attack Qian. The country of Qian is too rich.
Maybe it is just because they are too rich that they cannot fight.
At this time,
he was the only one in the Western Army, which could be called the banner, and his voice was absolutely weighty in the entire trilateral system. Even Yao Zizhan, a literary sage and three The commander-in-chief of the Western Army, Zhong Wen Dao, whom the border governors had to respectfully invite in everything, was lying on the bed.
An old woman was waiting for him to drink medicine.
The old woman is over fifty. She is neither a wife nor a concubine. She is a southwest native. When she was a child, Qian Guo pacified the Xin'an Rebellion. She was rescued by Zhong Wendao and has stayed with Zhong Wendao since then. Serve.
She is a servant, but she has a very high status in the Zhong family.
Even Zhong Tianlang had to call out "Mommy" when he saw her.
"Master, the second master is waiting outside."
Zhong Wendao opened his eyes. Many age spots had appeared on his face. The man who once dominated the southwest and held up the mantle of the Da Ganxi Army was... old after all.
The old woman looked at the man in front of her,
feeling very lonely in her heart.
She still remembers the time when the handsome man appeared in front of her, lifted her onto the horse, and prevented her from being ravaged by the red-eyed soldiers.
The natives actually have no national or ethnic concepts. In their eyes, in many cases, the village on the opposite hillside is just like the Gan people, they are from other countries.
Therefore, she has no hatred against Zhong Wendao, against the country and the family.
But time relentlessly promotes aging.
The young generals who used to be quick and ready to fight now cannot escape the fate of being bedridden.
“Let him come in.”
Zhong Wendao ordered, his voice full of exhaustion.
The old woman nodded, fed the last spoonful of medicine, and then retreated slowly.
After a while,
Zhong Wendao's younger brother Zhong Wenmian came in. At that time, people called Zhong Wendao the old Mr. Zhong, and when they called him Zhong Wenmian, they called him the young Mr. Zhong.
The lintel of the Zhong family is actually supported by them.
Three years ago, old Xianggong Zhong led the 150,000 Western Army to the north. Immediately, under the operation of the imperial court, the Xishan Camp cavalry carefully trained by the Western Army was split. The person in charge was none other than Zhong Xianggong. Wen Mian.
The division of the Western Army also started from that time.
In recent years, while vigorously training the new army, the imperial court has also expanded the supply of old military leaders, especially after the massive dismantling of the Jingying camp, which devoured countless wealth and grain every year but was of no use during the war. After the burden, the imperial court became more comfortable supporting the Western Army.
But one code leads to another, and the division of the Western Army has never been suspended. Now, including Zhong Wendao and Zhong Wenmian, the remaining Western Army has been divided into three. They are all under the jurisdiction of three other generals who originally belonged to the Western Army's general system but were under the Zhong family.
At the same time, the reform of the southwest region was also being implemented, and the imperial court began to focus on governing the southwest.
But, in Zhong Wendao's opinion, these are too urgent.
Although Xianggong Han and others were very good at suppressing military force with literature when they were in the court, Xianggong Han and others actually understood the principle of governing a big country like cooking small dishes, and they also had a deep understanding of the situation in the southwest. How to solve the situation in the southwest The method is not for the current generation, but for the next generation, or even the next generation after that.
Use time to exchange for the identity of the southwest indigenous people and make them think that they are Gan people.
However, after the collapse of Han Xianggong, the new Xianggong promoted by the official family claimed to be of the new school and were extremely radical in doing things. This undoubtedly made Daqian, a great empire that had been in decline for more than a hundred years, shine brightly. He gained vitality, but he also caused trouble because of his impatience.
For example, in recent years, Zhong Wendao can tell from letters from his hometown that the situation in the southwest is showing signs of instability again.
In the final analysis, after the main force of the Western Army moved north, its dominance and deterrence over the southwest has been greatly reduced. At this time, stability should be maintained.
"Brother, are you feeling better?"
Zhong Wenmian knelt beside the bed and looked at his brother.
The two brothers have lived together since they were children and have a very good relationship. Later, they even follow the assassins to set the southwest together. Brotherhood and friendship are inseparable.
But love is love, and the matter of the separation of the Western Army is another matter.
“Soon.”
Zhong Wendao said.
In this world, some old people become more and more afraid of death as they get older;
And there are other old people who become more and more indifferent to the matter of life and death as they get older.
Zhong Wenmian did not expect that his always upright brother would be so depressed, and couldn't help but said:
"Brother, you will be fine, you will get better."
Zhong Wendao smiled with some difficulty.
In fact, two years ago, that is, half a year after the Yan people had just retired, Zhong Wendao wrote to the court on the grounds of his old age and physical discomfort, hoping that he could return to his hometown in the southwest to recuperate.
He is old and is really not used to the climate on the three sides.
But how dare the imperial court let him, the Dinghai Shenzhen, leave the three sides at that time? He refused directly and offered to be promoted to a higher position.
After that, every six months, Zhong Wendao would write to the court asking him to retire and return to his hometown.
But on the one hand, the imperial 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 to appease the imperial court and show that he was not greedy for power.
Therefore, the court refused every request, and continued to promote officials and nobles, and even allowed Zhong Tianlang to marry the emperor's concubine.
But only those who are truly close know that Zhong Wendao really requested to return home because of his physical condition.
However, the court firmly held him on three sides.
Three years,
Three years,
Three years,
The influence of acclimatization has been particularly fatal to this veteran, and has already exhausted his vitality.
He probably has no chance of dying in battle,
On the contrary, there is a high probability that he will be tortured on three sides by the court in this way to drain out the last bit of life.
"Brother."
Zhong Wendao guessed why his brother came to see him,
he immediately said:
"Fighting Yan?"
"Brother , the people of Yan are mobilizing the whole country to attack Chu. This is a good opportunity for me to launch a Northern Expedition. If the Chu State is defeated, I will do so..."
Since the destruction of the Three Jin Dynasties, Qian and Chu have become allies to jointly resist the Yan people.
Zhong Wendao slowly shook his head and said:
“No.”
“Brother, why?”
“The Yan people are powerful, but they cannot last long. , Chu people are not fat people, it will be difficult to defeat Chu. I have to continue to work hard, and use hard troops to make horses stronger.
Brother, brother, brother, I know what you want.
But my brother, I can’t go on the expedition. "
"Brother, but this Northern Expedition must..."
Zhong Wendao smiled again,
said:
"Brother, I am not in good health, so I will force the Northern Expedition. Brother, brother, do you think that you will be the one to hold up this situation for me when the time comes?"
If it is the Northern Expedition, br>
Zhong Wendao must be in command, the Western Army is the central army, and the armies on the three sides and the guest armies from all walks of life are at the disposal of the left and right armies.
Once Zhong Wendao's body bones could no longer support him, the position of commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition would naturally fall to Zhong Wenmian.
Although Zhong Tianlang is a general, he is still young and cannot convince the public.
"Brother, the officials are also interested in the Northern Expedition, and all the generals are also hoping for the Northern Expedition. Don't worry, brother, even if the Yan people transfer soldiers and horses from Beifeng County, our army will respond calmly and step by step, and the Yan people can be defeated!
I don’t believe that the Yan people can support two sides of the war at the same time!”
“You...”
“Brother.”
“You don’t have the ability. ”
"..." Zhong Wenmian.
“I work hard. If I don’t move, I will be undefeated. If I move, it is very likely... it is very likely that I will be defeated. The morale of the army cannot be adjusted well, the logistics cannot be followed up, and the deployment cannot be straightened out.< br>
I am in charge, that is, to maintain a superficial appearance, to be convinced but not convinced.
Wait,
You can wait,
You can really wait. "
"When? "Zhong Wenmian's tone increased.
He simply couldn't understand his brother's choice, and even thought it was unreasonable!
Yao Zizhan once wrote a poem, saying bluntly , throughout the ages, it has been easy to seek war. They all know that taking the initiative to fight can gain a good reputation. If they avoid war and seek peace, they will be scolded if they succeed. Defeat also brings infamy. Therefore, not all those who lead the battle are loyal and virtuous, and those who avoid war and seek peace are also those who work hard to achieve success.
Many people think that this poem by Yao Zizhan is serious. The official article is wiping the butt of Da Qian's "subjugation" to the Yan Kingdom for hundreds of years.
But there is actually an inevitable truth in it.
Zhong Wendao stood up and said:
“Wait for the Yan Kingdom to exhaust its national power!
Wait for the Yan Emperor to die. Pass away!”
"Brother, as a general, how can you rely on these things?"
Zhong Wendao sneered:
"I can't beat you."
"You..."< br>
"Forcing another fight is nothing more than repeating what happened a hundred years ago. As long as Mr. Thornface is still alive, I will have the Yan Kingdom, and the Yan Kingdom's... that... the two princes of the north and south can control the morale of the army.
I, I, Zhong Wendao, am the first to lead a horse for... and the first to... ask for a fight! ”
After saying these words,
Zhong Wendao coughed violently again.
The old woman waiting outside immediately came in and began to soothe his back.
After calming down a bit,
Zhong Wendao said sharply again:
“Brother, you took away Xishan Camp. I don’t blame you, brother. Everyone has his own ambitions, and brother understands.
But you can’t even think of going in my name. Taking command of the Northern Expedition,
My brother, I have to take responsibility for the lives of hundreds of thousands of frontier troops!
Brother, if you don’t have the ability, don’t bring disaster to the country and the people!”
With that said,
Zhong Wendao slapped the bed and glared at Zhong Wenmian.
Zhong Wenmian was angry and angry, but he thought that his brother could not get angry when he was like this.
He could only say:
"Brother, take a good rest and recuperate."
>
After saying that, he waved his sleeves
and left directly.
The old woman stretched out her hand and continued to caress Zhong Wendao's back without saying anything. She never interfered with outside affairs, even family affairs, which had nothing to do with Zhong Wendao's work and rest.
Zhong Wendao breathed a sigh of relief,
He lay back down and
closed his eyes;
after confirming that he was asleep,
the old woman carefully pressed the corner of the quilt for him, then stood up and walked lightly After leaving, she had a bed outside the bedroom.
I don’t know how long I slept,
Zhong Wendao slowly opened his eyes,
He looked outside,
Outside,
it was already dark.
Zhong Wendao was a little thirsty and wanted to ask the old woman to come in and give him a glass of water.
But on one side of his body, he fell off the bed.
It didn’t hurt,
It didn’t hurt at all,
He even stood up on his own.
Then 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 left the bedroom, he saw the old woman walking in with porridge.
"Master, Master!"
The old woman immediately stepped forward and supported Zhong Wendao. She didn't know why Zhong Wendao suddenly stood up.
"It's so boring in the house. Take me, take me out for a walk."
"Master, it's windy outside."
"Be obedient."
"Yes. , Master.”
The old woman immediately ordered to go down and prepare the sedan.
Immediately, the guards in the government office were immediately alerted. When they saw Zhong Wendao walking in front of them, everyone had smiles on their faces. Their old Mr. Zhong seemed to have recovered from his illness.
Only the old woman was secretly wiping her tears after helping Zhong Wendao sit in the sedan.
Sedan, lift up.
Under Zhong Wendao's order, the sedan arrived at the north wall of Mianzhou City.
Zhong Wendao got off the sedan, turned around, and said to the guards who had helped him carry the sedan:
"Haha, when I was young in the early days, I really didn't expect that I would ride in a sedan chair in the future;
I thought at that time, after death, everyone has to go into a coffin, why do those civil servants always like it? Sit in early and give it a try. Are you in such a hurry?"
"Hahahahahaha..."
The guards immediately laughed.
It is also a custom among the army to make fun of the civil servants.
Zhong Wendao climbed up the stairs and walked onto the city wall. He waved his hand to signal his guards not to follow him. He wanted to be alone and enjoy the breeze.
Actually, it is summer now, and the evening breeze is not cold, and can give people a refreshing and pleasant feeling of comfort.
After Zhong Wendao walked up the last step, he began to pant and sweat broke out on his forehead.
Reach out and wipe it.
Myself,
I haven’t sweated in a long time.
He subconsciously wanted to support the wall with his hands, but saw a person sitting there.
The man was holding a roast chicken in his hand and eating it very deliciously.
Zhong Wendao was hungry,
he walked over and wanted to eat too.
The man was young, probably in his thirties. When he saw him, he didn't seem to be afraid at all. Instead, he asked;
"Want to eat?"
Zhong Wendao nodded, like a Like a child, he stretched out his hand to grab the roasted chicken.
“Have you washed your paws?”
Zhong Wendao shook his head.
"Then I won't let you eat. I have said it a long time ago. In this southwest land, there are many miasma poisonous insects and frequent rains. The military camp must be clean and tidy, otherwise it is easy to get sick. This disease can easily spread to a large area.
Wen Dao, Wen Dao, I have said a lot It happened last time, why didn’t you take it seriously?”
“Your hands are clean.”
Zhong Wendao replied, “I just came out of the house, they are not dirty. ”
Then,
Zhong Wendao added:
"According to your instructions, from now on, our Western Army military camp will pay great attention to cleanliness."
"I will give you a chicken drumstick."
The man pulled off a chicken leg and handed it to Zhong Wendao.
Zhong Wendao took the chicken leg and was not in a hurry to eat it. Instead, he held the drumstick in his hands and smiled.
"What, you have to leave this to your brother? Let me tell you, the same goes for your brother. He is really embarrassed to eat and use his brother's reward every time.
Brothers really have to take care of them. Brother, but the younger brother must know how to be grateful, otherwise, he will be careful to raise a white-eyed wolf."
Zhong Wendao sniffed,
shaked his head,
shouted:< br>
"Commander, Wen Dao, Wen Dao misses you."
Hearing this, the man smiled, put down the roast chicken in his hand, and said: "What do you want from me? Don't miss me. I'm there. I'm living quite comfortably."
"Commander, Commander, the Kingdom of Jin is gone."
"It's gone, it's gone."
< br>"The Yan people are attacking Chu."
"Fight, let's fight."
"It's a pity that you're not here, otherwise we would have gone on the Northern Expedition."
But the man laughed and stretched out his hand to pull himself away hair,
revealing the complete side face,
Pointing to the words on it,
said:
“Count on me, what are you counting on me for? Look clearly, look clearly, I am a thief and an army!
That’s it. In the court,
In the Privy Council,
On the streets of Shangjing City,
I can also see in the eyes of those who look at me,
the contempt they have for me.
Wen Dao, this world is wrong, really wrong, very wrong.
Why can these poor people who can only recite poetry and compose moral articles stand above us and show off their power?
Do they dare to recite poems and compose poems with the Yan people?
Do they dare to talk about morality to the troubled people in the southwest?
They don’t dare,
They really don’t dare,
But they dare to shit on the heads of us Qiuba,
Why! "
The more the man spoke, the more excited he became.
Zhong Wendao's eyes began to turn redder and redder. He clenched his hands and echoed:
"Yes, why? We protect their glory and wealth, and protect their singing and dancing, but they still treat us as thieves and bitches.
A bunch of losers, a bunch of trash, a bunch of bastards, a bunch of bastards, a bunch of beasts! ”
Under the city tower, although the guards did not go up as ordered, they were still waiting silently against the stone stairs.
“Listen, our marshal, doesn’t the picture above look like he’s swearing?”
“Haha, it must be that the marshal has been lying in bed for too long and is so suffocated that his body is now in a state of panic. Okay, I just want to vent my anger by scolding people.”
“Yeah, I’m not used to being scolded by the commander for so long.”
“You bitch.”
On the city wall,
Zhong Wendao scolded him happily and felt comfortable.
He looked at the man in front of him and said:
"Commander, it would be great if you were still here. It would be great if you were always here. .
Three years ago, you didn’t know that 70,000 Yan people, 70,000, just 70,000, 70,000 Yan people could defeat us in the capital city!
Straight bitch,
I’m doing it,
What’s going on?
Commander, if you are still here, according to what you said at the beginning, after we have settled the southwest, we should go to the north to settle accounts with the Yan people and avert a century-old national humiliation.
It would be great if you hadn't left. "
The man's mood calmed down, he stretched out his hand and patted the wall, and said:
"It's good to go, so as not to see and hear these messy things again. In my heart, I can feel more comfortable. "
"Yes, you feel comfortable, but what about me? What about me? "
"Wen Dao, I'm sorry for you. ”
"It's not bitter, I deserve it. Who told me that when the commander-in-chief you were imprisoned in Shangjing, I blocked the petition of the brothers under my command to remonstrate?
This is what I deserve, I deserve it, you straight mother-in-law, I should!”
< br>"Wen Dao, I didn't blame you."
"But Marshal, I can't get over this hurdle in my heart!"
"Is it important whether I can get through it? It's not important. ”
The man turned around, faced south,
said:
“It’s just a pity that the peach blossom brew is not enough to drink.”
“Commander, my brother, Wen Mian wants to lead the army in the Northern Expedition."
"Hehehe, hahahaha..."
The man seemed to have heard something extremely ridiculous and laughed so hard that he bent over and almost couldn't breathe.
"Haha, hahaha..." Zhong Wendao also laughed.
The man laughed and scolded:
"What a fool, Zhong Wenmian, he is a dandy who got along by relying on the shadow of your elder brother. By chance, he didn't encounter any big war. Do you think your abilities can reach heaven?”
………
At this time, after learning that his eldest brother had gotten up, looked better, and came to the city wall in a sedan chair to get some fresh air, Zhong Wenmian, who had not yet left Mianzhou City and was having a drink with several of his brother's generals, came over on horseback in a hurry.
"See the Second Master!"
"See the Second Master!"
Under the city wall, a group of Zhong Wendao's soldiers saluted Zhong Wenmian.
Zhong Wenmian nodded, dismounted, and prepared to go up the steps.
But at this moment, a message came from above:
"Zhong Wenmian is nothing, a dandy who got along by relying on the shadow of your elder brother..."
" ..." Zhong Wenmian.
Zhong Wenmian's face alternated between red and white, whether his feet were stepping up or down.
He couldn’t help but look at the guards around him,
The guards lowered their heads at the same time, pretending that they didn't hear anything.
…………
On the city wall,
The man smashed his fist on the buttress,
said:
"Yes, some people always think that after reading a few military books, they know how to fight. They always think that if they increase the number of soldiers and horses, the battle can be won.
But, the battle , It’s not like this. It’s really not like this.
Wen Dao, it’s also your fault. Why haven’t you grown up since I left? What?"
"The handsome man is so talented and talented. If he can keep this plate from collapsing, he has done his best."
"I work hard, like a painting. The country is vast, rich in resources, and full of talented people. What’s the matter, except for you, the immortal Zhong Wendao, there haven’t been many talented people in recent years?”
"My youngest son, Zhong Tianlang, is not bad." Zhong Wendao smiled, as if he was deliberately showing off in front of the man.
"How does Zhong Tianlang compare with that uncle from Pingye in Yan Kingdom?"
Zhong Wendao stopped laughing, shook his head and said:
"Not as good."
Soon,
Zhong Wendao realized something and asked:
"Commander, how do you know him? I haven't had time to say it yet."
The man pointed at his nose and then deliberately He put his face in front of Zhong Wendao and said:
“Who do you think I am?”
"You are the handsome man."
"Oh."
The man shook his head and said: "No, I am not the handsome man."
"You are the handsome man." Handsome, exactly the same.”
“Haha, actually you know who I am.”
The brightness in Zhong Wendao's eyes suddenly dimmed after hearing these words.
"Commander, the officials want to make the Northern Expedition."
"You just said it."
"Those who want to lose, those who really want to lose, a hundred years ago , is the Marquis of Zhenbei. A hundred years later, I may have to meet the Marquis of Zhenbei.
Haha, everyone says that the Marquis of Zhenbei suppressed the desert for hundreds of years on behalf of the Yan Kingdom, but it actually suppressed me. Daqian, a hundred years, a hundred years.
Marshal,
I know what they are thinking,
They are thinking that when I go on the Northern Expedition, the desert barbarians will definitely take action. By then, the Marquis of Zhenbei of Yan State will If the Mansion goes south, the Yan people will directly open the door to the west.
If we do not go south, the Yan Kingdom will be attacked by Dagan and the barbarians.
But,
But,
But the barbarians are not stupid. I don’t understand why they all swear that the barbarians will send troops. Did the barbarians send troops last time?
No,
this time,
the barbarians will not send troops. ”
The man asked: "Wen Dao, why are you so sure?"
"Commander, you are not old, but I am old, and the barbarian king is also old, so I can understand the barbarian king more and more What are you thinking about?
The barbarians are no longer what they were a hundred years ago. He is no longer a barbarian who responded under the banner of the royal court.
That Emperor Yan is the best at gambling, but he is an emperor after all. I can feel that one of his. Eyes, staring at me.
No,
He kept staring and never looked away for a moment!
He,
he might even be,
waiting for me to go north, he, waiting.
He wishes that all of us would go crazy together, go crazy together, and end together while he is still alive.
I don’t know what Yan Huang’s confidence is, but I can’t be wrong, I can’t be wrong, I really can’t be wrong.
When we all thought he was an emperor, he was like a gambler;
But when we thought he was a gambler, he would tell us, what is A true emperor.
Last time, everyone thought the Yan people attacked Qian, but the Yan people suddenly entered the Jin Dynasty;
This time, everyone thought the Yan people attacked Chu, but who could have predicted what would happen next? Woolen cloth?
I am recruiting elites from three sides and relying on the city wall, it will definitely be a nightmare for the Yan people;
And once the defeat a hundred years ago happens again,
only these ruins will be left. , this cold piece of ice, who can it stop?
Ten more years of training,
No,
Just five years.
With the wealth, material and manpower of my Da Gan, the awakened officials and the public officials have the will to rise up. I, Da Gan, will definitely be able to sweep away the evils accumulated for a hundred years and stand up again. "
The man asked again:
"But they still want to fight. They feel that if they don't fight, they have given up a great opportunity. They feel that they are stupid people. It will be laughed at by the history books. "
"Yes. ”
"Can you stop them from fighting?"
Hearing this, Zhong Wendao fell silent,
After a long silence,
Zhong Wendao nodded,< br>
He smiled again and said:
“Yes.”
…………
“I must make an expedition to the north at this time. , we can break the siege of the Chu State, but we need to know that our lips are dead and our teeth are cold. If we stand on the other side and watch the fire, and sit back and watch the Chu State be defeated, we will be completely isolated and helpless in the east.
At that time, the Yan people had defeated both countries. With this momentum, they attacked our Dagan again, which would put our Dagan in danger.
Secondly, the Yan people's manpower and material resources are all concentrated on attacking Chu, and their country will inevitably be empty. When our army goes north, the barbarians will definitely respond, and the Yan country will immediately fall into a pincer attack. This is A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! ”
In class,
Yao Zizhan nodded with satisfaction as he listened to the opinions of his subordinate Li Jiazi, who was from Wei Town.
These students of his are basically from Although the generals on the three sides will inevitably have some playboy habits, they still have a family style.
"Yes, very good. Who wants to say it again? If you say it well, I will help you write it into the booklet and show it to the officials. Let the officials also take a look. My disciples on the border are by no means prodigals. You deserve your reputation.”
At this time, a student sitting at the back stood up.
His surname is Shi, and his name is Shi Kai. His father is the transfer envoy of Chen Town. In fact, he is the son of a civil servant and cannot be regarded as a family of military generals.
"Shi Kai, come on, tell me."
"Yes, teacher."
Shi Kai saluted Yao Zizhan respectfully,
turned around
and faced Li Chengmi who had spoken before,
said:
" If I heard correctly what Brother Li said before, Brother Li said that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me?”
"Yes." Li Chengmi nodded. Having just been recognized by Master Yao, he asked with some pride: "Does Brother Shi have any objections to this?"
Shi Kai also nodded and said:
< br>"I have objections. I'm not talented. I think Brother Li is wrong."
"Oh, please enlighten me."
"A hundred years ago, there were better opportunities than before. .”
"..." Li Chengmi.
“………” Yao Zizhan.
Everyone in the class stopped moving because of these words.
If this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,
then a hundred years ago,
What was that time when the Yan people were fighting the barbarians on the edge of the desert until their brains were about to burst out?
You must know that back then, they were the barbarians at their peak. Their royal tent, their golden family, were still the supreme masters of the desert!
Li Chengmi’s face turned red from being suppressed,
pointing at Shi Kai,
said:
"How dare you...how dare you...how could you..."
Shi Kai did not look at Li Chengmi again, but turned to salute Master Yao and asked
;
"Teacher just a few days ago Teach us the words of the saints and teach us to stand upright. The students always remember the teacher's teachings and often ruminate in their hearts after class.
But the students have something they don't understand, and they still look to Master Yao to clarify their doubts. ”
"You can tell me." Yao Zizhan stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"Teacher once taught us that we must distinguish between Xia and barbarians, and keep the meaning of Spring and Autumn."
Then I would like to ask teacher, why did I still have hope in the Northern Expedition as Brother Li said before? Barbarians come to help?
People As we all know, 800 years ago, the Marquis of Yan held the Great Xia Dynasty Order to open a border for the Xia, and then there was Yan;
And in my Daqian, when Taizu founded the country, he once offered sacrifices to the sky on the top of Dongshan Mountain to show that, Zuo, the country of Daqian, inherited the orthodoxy of Daxia
Students are confused,
If this is the case, from a legal and orthodox perspective, the Yan Kingdom and the Wogan Kingdom both came from Daxia and belonged to the kingdoms of the Xia.
But what does it have to do with other barbarians?
Daqian and Yan are at war, which is like brothers fighting within their own families.
When did his barbarian tribe become one of the Xia?
What is the difference between what Brother Li said before, contacting the barbarians and jointly conquering Yan, and attracting foreign thieves? ”
Everyone present made a mistake again.
The reason is very simple,
Daqian is a country that pays attention to culture and education. They have an extremely splendid and splendid culture. The most gorgeous moral article, it claims to be a true country of etiquette and is respected by all nations.
But some of the things our ancestors did a hundred years ago are difficult to clean up.
A hundred years ago, during the bloody battle between the Yan people and the barbarians, Emperor Taizong embarked on the Northern Expedition.
However,
The three princes of Yan, Chu and Jin were all promoted by Zhengerba under the order of the Great Xia Dynasty. However, Qianguo launched a rebellion because the Zhao family was not in the right position. A large number of literati helped write the history of their ancestors, saying that the Zhao family, like eight hundred years ago, was also an important minister under the Great Xia Emperor, and had the same status as the three princes.
But everyone knows in their hearts that Emperor Taizu of this dynasty was once the sworn brother of the previous emperor, and he was born into a military family in Shangjing City.
But Wen Xuankou recognized it this way and promoted it this way, so everyone has to recognize it, so we were one family eight hundred years ago, but this has nothing to do with Emperor Taizong and what is being discussed now. , violated.
Yao Zizhan smiled and said;
“I’m asking you, teacher.”
“Teacher, please ask.”
“If your mother is seriously ill, does your next door neighbor have any Medicine, this medicine can save your mother, but the neighbor is not willing to give it to you, will you steal it?”
“Yes”
"Stealing is something that a gentleman will look down upon."
"However, the mother is in serious trouble, and the student is willing to bear this bad reputation."
"Of course."
Shi Kaishang When he opened his mouth, he understood what Master Yao meant, which was that he could not wait for Yan to destroy Chu. The next one would be Da Qian.
My family is about to perish, how can I still care about what is right and wrong and whether it is legal or not?
Shi Kai leaned over and bowed and said:
"Disciple is taught."
Yao Zizhan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He had previously answered the other party in a sophistical way, In fact, it shouldn't be.
Fortunately,
At this time, the servant outside came to report that there was an urgent military situation.
Yao Zhan was granted amnesty, left the classroom, and went straight to the front yard to sign the pledge room.
…………
In the signing room,
The servant looked at Yao Zizhan slumped on the chair, silent for a long time, and asked with concern:
< br>"Master, what happened?"
Yao Zizhan glanced at the servant,
sighed,
pursed his lips,
said:
“Zhong Wendao, hysteria broke out last night , died of illness this morning" (End of Chapter)
