The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 533 Guangbi's Disgrace
It was a drama back then, and it is true today

Twice bystanders, the sky stays cold-eyed

……

Bai Fu saluted the army and replied: "My Xia Baifu served in the army before. Before receiving the transfer order, I worked in the household department."

After all, submit your transfer orders, inscriptions, and military spies issued by the Ministry of War.

Li Guangbi flipped through the pages casually, snorted coldly, and said: "Although he is a military official, he is also a fifth-rank General Dingyuan, and he was awarded the honor of Captain Captain! Such a military rank at such a young age, it's amazing."

Li Guangbi's tone was full of sarcasm, obviously aimed at himself.Bai Fu's heart trembled, and he didn't answer for the time being, to see what happens next.

Li Guangbi said to the general beside him: "Ran Beizheng, during the battle of Yecheng, you were by Guo Linggong's side. Tell me, among the armies, how did these fifth-rank generals who were suddenly airborne before the battle perform?"

Ran Beizheng twitched his lips and said, "When Lu Jiong's troops fought with Shi Siming's personal troops, General Ningyuan Lu Zi took the lead and fled to the rear with his troops, causing the Huaixi Army to be in chaos, and the Tang Army's front army collapsed immediately.

Facing the Huaixi army rushing into battle, General Zheng Lu of Dingyuan panicked and panicked, and his troops collapsed first, and the Huaixi army broke through the embankment, breaking through several gaps.If Guo Shuai hadn't led us to execute the deserters on the spot in time, the Shuofang army formation would have collapsed at that time. "

……

After Ran Beizheng finished speaking, all the generals in the tent showed contempt.

Li Guangbi sneered: "Before the battle of Yecheng, among the nine military governors, only General Wang Sili and I resisted the pressure from the Ministry of War and resolutely refused to drop generals from the Ministry of War.

Judging from the subsequent battle situation, only Wang Sili and I were able to maintain order and strict military discipline when we withdrew to our own way.There was neither harassment nor desertion.The whole system was safely withdrawn. "

Having said this, the general of the Shuofang army in the tent showed shame and lowered his head.

Li Guangbi said proudly: "I, Li Guangbi, lead troops all my life, and only choose people from the battlefield. The generals under my command are all crawled out of the dead, and all of them have experienced many battles, and they regard death as home.

General Bai, I don't mean anything else. You may be excellent, but you don't meet my Li Guangbi's standards for employing people.please come back. "

Bai Fu was not afraid, his eyes were piercing, and he looked directly into Li Guangbi's sharp eyes.

Bai Fulang said in a loud voice: "The commander-in-chief may not want me to join the army, but there is no need to prevaricate me. How can you confuse me with Zheng Lu, Lu Zi and other dudes?!

I followed Grand Administrator Zhang Xun, Nan Jiyun, Lei Wanchun and other generals to defend Suiyang, and fought hundreds of battles, and never flinched.

In the battle of Xiangji Temple, I followed General Siye and killed tens of thousands of rebel cavalry with five hundred swordsmen.

My military exploits are not fake claims!
Li Guangbi laughed and said, "Hehe, one moment and another moment.

I admit that in the Siege of Suiyang and the Battle of Xiangji Temple, General Bai did make a lot of military exploits.But at that time, General Bai was only a martial arts fighter, and he was not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet.

But now, General Bai was bestowed by His Majesty Jinkou as the 'No. [-] Pioneer of the Tang Dynasty', no one knows, no one knows!The worth doubles, the skin is delicate and the meat is expensive.

As the saying goes, it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.You are used to living a leisurely life, how can you get used to eating, living and hanging out with us gangsters. "

Seeing that Bai Fu didn't take it seriously, Li Guangbi's eyes showed a playful look, and he said lightly:
"I heard that on the night of Yuan Xi, General Bai was favored by the Pomeranians. His thoughts were very ingenious and he spent a lot of money. The fireworks of the confession in Chang'an City not only protected the holy driver, but also won the heart of His Royal Highness. It can be said that killing two birds with one stone, gaining both fame and fortune !

You set off fireworks, write calligraphy and painting, and the rewards you get are far better than fighting on the battlefield.It's just around the corner to become an official, so why bother to enter the muddy water of war again?
Shi Siming is no better than An Lushan. This man has made great military exploits and is cunning and cunning.Future wars will be extremely dangerous.

How honorable is the status of the imperial son-in-law, if you go to the battlefield, if there is a mistake, everyone present in the Shuofang Army today will not be able to bear the blame!

General Bai, listen to what I said, joining the army is not a good way.As you said, you have already proved yourself in the siege of Suiyang and the battle of Xiangji Temple, so there is no need to do anything extra.Military merit is not easy to mix, don't delay your future.

Where is the marching Sima?

Immediately draft a memorial to report to His Majesty, General Bai is eager to join the army and serve the country wholeheartedly, but there is no Modao army in Shuofang, so he can only reluctantly give up...

Come on, escort General Bai out of the camp! "

Li Guangbi waved his hand, without any explanation, he pushed Bai Fu out.

……

After Bai Fu made his debut, although he made many enemies, it was the first time he was humiliated in public like this.Bai Fu's expression finally changed, and he walked away.

After leaving the camp, Bai Fu, Tang Huan and others met up, found Chuanbang sub-helm in Luoyang City, and checked into its inn.

In the evening, the Tang Sect information arrived.

It turned out that just two days before Bai Fu arrived in Luoyang, Emperor Suzong appointed Li Guangbi as Shuofang Jiedu envoy and recalled Guo Ziyi Shuo from Luoyang to Chang'an.

The incident happened suddenly, although Guo Ziyi was a little surprised, but without any complaints, she kowtowed to thank her.After receiving the imperial decree, Guo Ziyi did not hesitate to pack his luggage, handed over the tiger amulet on the same day, and returned to Beijing with the eunuch who passed the decree.

When they left the Shuofang barracks, many soldiers of Shuofang heard the news and rushed over, covering their faces and weeping, blocking the road, stopping the imperial eunuchs, and preventing Guo Ziyi from leaving.

Guo Ziyi clasped his fists on the horse and said with a smile: "Everyone, please be safe, I just learned about this.

I'm not leaving yet.He will not leave until the handover with General Guangbi is completed.Going out of the camp today is just a farewell party for the imperial envoy, not to leave! "

All the soldiers believed it was true, so they made way for it.

Guo Ziyi waved his hand, whipped his horse and whipped his horse, and never returned.

……

It is easy to hand over military power, but it is not so easy to regain the morale of Shuofang soldiers.

After Li Guangbi received the imperial court's decree, he was displeased and worried, shut himself in the house, and thought over and over again about taking over Shuofang's army:
"General Guo Ziyi is generous and benevolent, and is deeply supported by Shuofang soldiers. He has made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty in these years.

Now implicated by the defeat of Yecheng, he was replaced by himself.Guo Ziyi was wronged by this, and the Shuofang soldiers would definitely not accept it.It would be naive to think that the army can be incorporated with the imperial decree.A careless move in taking over will lose everything, so we must act carefully. "

In order to prevent the Shuofang soldiers from setting up obstacles and obstructing the handover, Li Guangbi did not choose to enter Luoyang with great fanfare during the day, but was vigilant and alert. He led [-] elite cavalry from the Hedong Army and quietly stationed in the Shuofang Army camp late at night to take over the military power.

After taking office without any risk, Li Guangbi's new official took office three times. As soon as he took office, he immediately rectified military discipline.Li Guangbi held the command arrow and issued orders, and issued a series of strict military orders one after another.

Li Guangbi's army was strictly disciplined, and none of Shuofang's soldiers dared to disobey his orders.

In a few days, Shuofang's army took on a completely new look.From the mental outlook of the soldiers to the layout of the barracks and flag markings, there are strict rules for everything.

Guo Ziyi's army has always been known for its tolerance and benevolence, while Li Guangbi's army is known for its strictness.As a result, the soldiers naturally missed Guo Ziyi more and more, and rejected Li Guangbi more and more.

……

Bai Fu was dedicated to serving him, but was ruthlessly expelled by Li Guangbi. Bai Fu couldn't swallow this breath, and kept it in his heart for several days.

Bai Fuben wanted to leave, return to Chang'an, and make other plans.

According to information from the Tang Sect, dissatisfaction within the Shuofang Army has gradually arisen.Bai Fu had a premonition that if things went on like this, Shuofang's army would break out of civil strife in a short time.So, I stayed in Luoyang, observed secretly, and watched the changes.
