The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 398
In the morning, I act like a tiger, and in the evening, I sing like a tiger.

Broken heart is not Guan Longtou water, and tears are not for Yongmen Qin.

The flags are colorful and the two rivers are in full bloom, and the war drums are shaking the mountains and wanting to overthrow them.

The Qin people were half prisoners of Yan, and the Huma turned Luoyang grass.

One loses, one loses, and the troops are dispatched, and they rebel against the secluded Jicheng day and night.

——Excerpt from Li Bai in "The Tiger"

……

Several hours later, the giant sturgeon was tired from swimming, Bai Fu jumped off the fish, touched the fish's lips and kisses to express his gratitude.Sturgeon swayed its giant tail, the waves churned and dived into the water.

Bai reused the conch to continue summoning the aquarium.

This time it was a group of gray and white finless porpoises.Finless porpoises come in groups of three or five, with blunt and round heads, raised foreheads, short and wide snouts, upper and lower jaws of the same length, and a body length of nearly two meters.

This group of finless porpoises has a lively temperament. They take turns supporting Bai Fu, chasing and playing on the river surface, sometimes jumping out of the water, and sometimes diving into the bottom of the water.Against the background of the rising sun, the group of finless porpoises swims nimbly, which is too beautiful to behold.

Through the relay transportation of the Shui people, Bai Fuxing traveled both night and night, went northward through the canal, and rushed to Suiyang County.

On the waterway, every time he went to a pier market, Bai Fu established contact with the local green forests and gangs through the liaison code of the Sichuan Gang, and obtained relevant military intelligence reports through channels such as pigeon letters and post stations.

In the military newspaper, Bai Fu saw a familiar name - Li Bi!
When I was driven down the mountain, I couldn't figure it out for a while, and wanted to throw myself into the water, but I rescued a crazy monk by mistake.The crazy monk is accompanied by a young scholar who seeks the Tao, named Li Mi.Li Mi told Bai Fu that the crazy monk was a lazy and disabled monk from Lingyun Temple in Jiazhou.

After arriving in Chang'an, I chatted with Master Xu about this matter.Taifu Xu shook his head with emotion, saying that he didn't know the lazy and disabled monk.But according to Li Mi's words, Xu Taifu deduced that this lazy and disabled monk was determined to be a great virtuous monk, but it was a pity that he had no chance to meet him.

Bai Fu didn't take it seriously, thinking that both of them were crazy.

Xu Taifu told Bai Fu that Li Mi was very famous and not a vain person.He was intelligent since he was a child, and he was known as the "odd boy".Read extensively, study classics and history intensively, and claim to be Wang Zuozhi's talent.

When Li Mi entered the palace for an audience at the age of six, Xuanzong was playing chess with the then Prime Minister Zhang Shuo.Zhang talked about Li Mi, and said casually: "A square is like a chess game, a circle is like a chess piece, a movement is like a chess, and a static chess is like a death.".Li Mi didn't think about it, and said in a sentence: "Fang is like doing righteousness, round is like using wisdom, moving is like being talented, and being quiet is like complacency."

The child's words were not taboo, and the words shocked everyone.Xuanzong was overjoyed and called him a child prodigy.Give money and issue edicts.

At that time, the famous courtiers Zhang Jiuling, Zhang Tinggui and others all admired Li Mi very much and did not dare to be self-respecting.

After Li Mi became an adult, he studied heaven and man, especially "Book of Changes".He has no intention of official career, loves mountains and rivers, admires the skills of immortals in Laozhuang, and often travels or lives in seclusion in famous mountains and rivers.

In the mid-Tianbao period, Xuanzong accidentally thought of Li Mi, a child prodigy, and summoned him to the imperial court.From then on, Prince Li Heng met Li Bi and respected him as "Mr."

Later, because Yang Guozhong relied on his favor and abused power, causing troubles to the government, Li Mi fled to Songshan to live in seclusion.

Prince Li Heng went north to Lingwu to order the world to serve the king, and he was in urgent need of good ministers and generals.Xu Taifu sent people to visit Songshan Mountain, and persuaded Li Mi to come out of the mountain to assist Li Heng.

Since ancient times, Taoist figures, in troubled times, must go out of the mountains to save the people from fire and water.

"If you want to benefit the country, you will live and die." Li Mi did not avoid misfortune and fortune, and went to Lingwu day and night to assist Suzong as a commoner.

Suzong was overjoyed, "When you go out, you will join the bridle, and when you sleep, you will face the couch."

Regarding his old acquaintance Li Mi, Bai Fu also received two pigeon letters from the Sichuan Gang, which were written by Xu Taifu himself.

In the letter, Xu Taifu relayed Li Mi’s analysis of the general trend of the world for Bai Fu’s reference:

"At the beginning of Suzong's succession, Shi Siming swept Hebei, and all the counties in Hebei fell. The two capitals are still in the hands of the puppet Yan army, and the puppet Yan army is ready to go south to plunder Jianghuai at any time. The entire Li and Tang courts are filled with despair and surrender. But Li Mi Optimistic and calm, I think that within two years, the Tang army will be able to wipe out the puppet Yan army, and there will be no bandits in the world!
Li Mi discovered from intelligence that An Lushan transported all the plundered children of Caibo to Fanyang.From this, Li Mi deduced that the puppet Yan court headed by An Lushan did not have the ambition to dominate the world and aspire to the world, but a group of bandits with strong soldiers and horses.

Although there were Hu generals who were good at fighting in the puppet Yan army, there were only a few noble and dignified Han Chinese loyal to Anlu Mountain, and all other officials of the puppet Yan Dynasty were forced to obey.Without the assistance of these civil servants and officials, the puppet Yan court would not know how to appease the people, buy people's hearts, and govern the region.Although the territory occupied is wide, it has not become a real territory.

Every time the puppet Yan army broke through a city, all the women and money in the city were looted.Adult men act as coolies.The old, young, sick and disabled were abused and played by Yan Jun.Enough playing around, chopping with knives and spears, throwing them into the air, cruelly killing...

The more cities captured, the wider the land occupied, the deeper the hatred and hatred.The more people rose up, the more people joined the Tang army...

Even for the loyal generals of the Hu people, Li Mi believes that among the pseudo-Yan army, only Shi Siming, An Shouzhong, Tian Qianzhen, Zhang Zhongzhi, Ashina Chengqing and others are truly capable of fighting.On the other hand, Datang is full of talents.There are too many capable ministers and officials who are loyal to the liver, righteous and courageous, and have a gentle and martial arts strategy.

Li Mi suggested that Emperor Suzong order Li Guangbi to come out of Jingxing from Taiyuan to restrain the generals Shi Siming and Zhang Zhongzhi in Fan Yang and Changshan.Guo Ziyi was ordered to enter Hedong from Feng Yi, and locked in Chang'an guards An Shouzhong and Tian Ganzhen.Just like playing chess, only two pieces can contain the opponent's four-way army.

In this way, there was only Ashina Chengqing left beside An Lushan. Although he was brave and good at fighting, he couldn't fight alone.

Next, close the door and beat the dog!

Su Zong led the army on the west road and took charge of Fengxiang.Order Guo Ziyi's troops not to attack Huayin for the time being, so that the road between Chang'an and Luoyang will be unblocked, and they will not attack the cities of the puppet Yan, nor cut off their roads.

The West Route Army and Guo Ziyi's and Li Guangbi's troops echoed each other from a distance, attacking from east to west in turn.

Tang Jun waited for work with ease.When the enemy arrives, avoid its sharpness; when the enemy goes away, strike its lazy return.

The puppet Yan army is like a rat in a bellows, rushing to help Luoyang, the Tang army will attack its Chang'an defenders; to rescue Chang'an, the Tang army will encircle and suppress Luoyang.Let the puppet Yan army send troops back and forth between the two capitals thousands of miles away, exhausted.

In the spring of the following year, he ordered Jianning Wang Li Tan to be Fanyang Jiedushi (unfortunately, when Bai Fu received this letter, Jianning Wang Li Tan had already been executed by Emperor Suzong), crossed the Great Wall, detoured to the north of the Great Wall, and went south from the north of Fanyang County.Order Li Guangbi's troops to go out of Jingxing to sweep Hebei.The two armies attacked from the north and the south, forming a momentum of encirclement and suppression, and directly attacked Fan Yang and covered his lair.

The Tang army marched forward triumphantly, and the puppet Yan army had no way to retreat, so they could only hide in the two capitals for defense.At that time, Qin Wang's army will be ordered to encircle from all sides and cut off the grain roads of the two capitals. The puppet Yan army will surely be captured without a fight, and An Lushan will die! "

Seeing this, Bai Fuji rose up, a wave of pride surged up.Bai Fu let out a long howl, piercing through the pine forest, expressing his heart directly.

This is the grand strategy of planning and winning thousands of miles away!

Although the soldiers on the front line fought bloody battles and were full of songs and tears, but for the whole battle situation, they were really like ants and chess pieces, and the credit was limited to one city and one pool.

Especially in the tug-of-war of capturing cities and fortresses, if you occupy today, I will occupy tomorrow.Beheading generals and planting flags, seizing them and taking them away, there are countless casualties, but it is meaningless.This is also the reason why Master Zhongsi would rather disobey the holy orders than risk the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers to capture Shibao City.

However, Li Mi's farsighted, overturning grand strategy and big handwriting are different.Make a decision before moving, and a battle to determine the country can prevent many innocent soldiers from shedding blood and dying in vain on the battlefield.

Combining the art of war taught by Master Zhong Si, Bai Fu admired Li Mi's strategy and learned a lot.Mr. Li Mi's compassionate wisdom and style are worthy of being called a good minister and a famous general!

Bai Fu secretly made a long-cherished wish: one day, if he can command a soldier, he should not be proud of the success of one general, but the highest state of a military strategist is to save the lives of soldiers and soldiers without bloodshed.

……

In addition to the news about Li Mi, there was another battle report that caught Bai Fu's attention:
The puppet Yan army is stepping up the deployment of troops. Shi Siming plans to send troops from Boling County, Cai Xide plans to send troops from Taihangxing, Gao Xiuyan plans to send troops from Datong, and Niu Tingjie plans to send troops from Fanyang County respectively. A total of [-] troops will besiege Taiyuan.

The elite soldiers under the command of Li Guangbi left behind in Taiyuan were all gathered in Shuofang. There were less than [-] soldiers guarding Taiyuan, and most of them were temporary recruits from the countryside.

At this time, the puppet Yan army won consecutive battles and swept Hebei, and their morale was in full swing. If they took Taiyuan in one fell swoop, it would not only break the siege of the puppet Yan army's two capitals.It was even more capable of driving straight into Shuofang and Helong, echoing the puppet Yan army in Chang'an, and fighting together, forming a north-south pincer attack on the Lingwu court.

Taiyuan is in danger!Datang is in danger!
According to Taifu's instructions, he should rescue Suiyang, and he cannot be separated from Taiyuan.Even so, Bai Fu couldn't let go of watching Taiyuan fall into danger.When his mind was troubled, Bai Fu had a flash of inspiration and thought of a plan, his brows were beaming with joy.

Bai Fu immediately repaired several books, Fei Ge passed the letter to Xu Taifu who is far away in Xiangyang, Huang Zhen and others who are in Chang'an of the Chuan Gang, please find these two people!Ask them to come out of the mountain and assist General Guangbi to defend the city!

……

The gangs along the way quickly sent out Bai Fu's pigeon letter, and sent Bai Fu's instructions step by step to the green forest gangs in Taiyuan and Luoyang.

This underground green forest system is well-organized, orderly commanded, and highly effective, comparable to the military of the Tang Dynasty.

Bai Fu really felt the careful layout of Gang Leader Jiang, Taifu Xu, Head Tang and others over the years.Due to the dense clouds of war and treacherous current events, the local government and army should not be trusted.Only the Green Forest Gang and other underground forces have a tight system, and they are still able to deliver news, organize manpower, and deliver supplies during times of war.

And this set of anti-insurgency combat readiness system was first mobilized and initiated by Master Qingxuan, head of the sect, to prepare for a rainy day.Every time he thinks of this, Bai Fu secretly feels sad.

When I was a child, I often took advantage of my master's unpreparedness to play truancy with my brothers and sisters in Linxi, digging out birds and catching fish.Every time the master finished his punishment, he would sigh softly: "Fu'er, don't waste your time. After passing this village, there will be no more shops like this."

When I was a child, I only felt that there was a lot of time and I could not squander it.Unexpectedly, in just a few short years, things are changing, people are changing, the world is in chaos, and the master and apprentice are forever separated... Qingcheng, which was complaining every day in the past, now thinks about it, it is actually a paradise.

"I can't go back!"

Bai Fu let out a long sigh and stirred the fire.In the ashes that had been extinguished just now, a red light suddenly appeared, and a group of flames burned blazingly again...

　In the morning, I act like a tiger, and in the evening, I sing like a tiger.

　　Broken heart is not Guan Longtou water, and tears are not for Yongmen Qin.

　　The flags are colorful and the two rivers are in full bloom, and the war drums are shaking the mountains and wanting to overthrow them.

　　The Qin people were half prisoners of Yan, and the Huma turned Luoyang grass.

　　One loses, one loses, and the troops are dispatched, and they rebel against the secluded Jicheng day and night.

　　The giant turtle is not cut off, the sea is moving, and the fish and dragons are running around peacefully.

　　It is quite similar to the Chu and Han Dynasties, when there was no end to overturning.

　　Pass Bolangsha in the morning and enter Huaiyin City in the evening.

　　Zhang Liang did not meet Han Xinpin, and Liu Xiang survived and died in the two ministers.

　　Temporarily went to Xiapi to accept the military strategy, and came to vote for Piaomu as the master.

　　The sages lived like this in ancient times, and now they also abandon Qingyun scholars.

　　Have a strategy not to offend the dragon scales, flee to the southern country to avoid the dust.

　　Precious books and long swords are hung on the high pavilion, and horses with golden saddles are scattered.

　　Yesterday, Fang was a guest from Xuancheng, and he rang the bell to traffic two thousand stones.

　　Sometimes Liu Bo is so excited that he circles the bed three times and makes a throw.

　　The people of Chu say that Zhang Xu is strange every time, and the world knows nothing about the situation in their hearts.

　　Three Wu Bangbo look forward more, heroes from all over the world push each other.

　　Xiao Cao used to be an official in Peizhong, and it was time to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix.

　　In the spring of March in Liyang Restaurant, Yang Hua Momochou killed someone.

　　The Hu people play the jade flute with green eyes, and the Wu song and the white rice fly to the dust of the beams.

　　Husbands are happy to meet each other, and all the guests are gathered with hammer and ox drum.

　　From then on, I went fishing in the East China Sea, and I got Yu Xiao to send my affection for a blind date.
