The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 596
When to go home, be an idler.To a piano, a pot of wine, a stream of clouds.

——Excerpt from "Xingxiangzi Shuhuai" Su Shi

……

Bai Fu suppressed his disgust by force, pretended to be false, and exchanged cups with everyone.

Bai Fu is well aware of the principle of "harmony with light and dust".

If you are only pursuing the peak of martial arts, you can naturally stand alone.Just like when he was studying martial arts in Qingcheng back then, as long as his martial arts were outstanding and surpassed Shushan, he would naturally win the respect of his master and the protection of his master.

However, to become an official as a minister, or join the army as a soldier, you have to let go of your dignity, and you can't let your own temper do it.Self-proclaimed loftiness will only make others feel jealous, set up a trap, bring endless troubles, and even worry about their lives.

Even Wang Zuozhi such as General Zhongsi and Xu Taifu could not escape the fate of being suspected and framed.

When the moon was as cool as water, Taifu Xu often sighed: "As the saying goes, everything is different from political affairs.

The power field is as dangerous as the Three Gorges vortex.It is impossible for a pure gentleman or a pure sycophant to live long in the officialdom. Only those with complex temperaments, careful thinking, and sophisticated actions can survive to the end. "

His official career is like a tiger, and he is deterred by it.

Li Mi had a different view on this, and before returning to hermitage, Li Mi said to Bai Fu: "Joining the WTO is the best practice, but becoming an official is the most difficult way to join the WTO.

If the heart of the Tao can be upright and firm, and you can move among wolves, tigers and leopards, and emerge from the mud like a lotus without being stained, it will be better than practicing for ten lifetimes. "

……

Taking advantage of the moment of Bai Fu's toast, Li Ruoyou pulled Bai Fu aside, and said with a deep smile, "The Anlu Mountain rebellion has reminded His Majesty. Only when the clan is in charge of the army, can Your Majesty rest assured!

Brother Bai holds military power at a young age. Although it is gratifying, it is also dangerous.

If you want to walk steadily and in the long run, you need to plan ahead and gain insight into the emperor's heart. "

Bai Fu nodded frequently, pretending to be ingratiating and said: "Thank you for reminding me, I hope you will support me a lot in the future!

However, matters such as the transfer of soldiers and horses require the acquiescence of the supervising army, and please sir..."

Li Ruoyou snorted coldly, and said: "Don't worry, I will handle Hu Fangxiang. If he dares to restrain you and ruin His Majesty's important affairs, I will personally impeach him!"

Bai Fu smiled and said: "Then I will have Mr. Lao. You are so majestic. If you have an adult in charge, the younger generation will not dare to do anything wrong."

At the end, Bai Fu did not forget to do what he liked, and conveniently gave Li Ruoyou a high hat.

Seeing Bai Fu's understanding, Li Ruoyou laughed out loud, touched the wine cup in his hand, and the two of them drank it down in one gulp.

Wei Boyu gathered his ears together, and took Li Ruoyou's words into his ears without missing a word.

Wei Boyu once asked Li Ruoyou whether Bai Fu would become the princess' son-in-law.

Li Ruoyou smiled contemptuously, and said: "The impoverished family and the royal family are separated by heaven and the Milky Way.

Li Bai was relegated to the celestial world, and Wang Wei was a man of grace. Both of them were amazingly talented and outstanding people in the world, and they failed to marry Princess Yuzhen.

Why is he in vain?
I asked Chang'an's disciples and old officials to inquire, and this Bai Fu came out to open pawnshops and play antiques for Prince Qing's son and Princess Qingluan, and helped the princess make a lot of money.

But, at best, they are the followers of King Siqing and Princess.

Even if Grand Tutor Xu is still alive, this matter may not be possible, not to mention that Grand Tutor has passed away long ago.

What the son-in-law said is purely because this kid puts gold on his face and raises his self-worth. "

Wei Boyu secretly said: "Li Ruoyou, this old fox, knew that Bai Fu had no background, so he started to snatch food from his mouth. He invited me here today to let me support him and prevent Bai Fu from being wooed by Wei Zhi.

Now that I'm here, I can't come in vain, I also want to peck a piece of meat from Anxi Jun. "

Thinking of this, Wei Boyu raised his wine cup, swayed, and came to Bai Fu.

Wei Boyu said boldly: "Brother, Hengmu used to be my personal lieutenant, I think he is still young and it would be a pity to be a follower for the rest of his life, so I sent him to the Anxi Army to practice.

If he did something wrong, you should beat him, scold him, you're welcome. "

Bai Fuxin said: "Speak and listen to the sound, listen to the gongs and drums, the words are all on this point, just tell me directly that Hengmu is his, and let me not use it to make a knife."

Bai Fu smiled and said: "I know what's going on in my heart, and General Wei, please rest assured."

Wei Boyu saw that Bai Fu was quite sensible, so he straightened it out, saying: "Brother, Shanzhou is the last line of defense in front of Tongguan, if the rebels want to go west, they will definitely break through from here.

At that time, only the joint operations of several Tang armies can repel the enemy.Brothers and I, we must work together to fight against Yan, which is the best policy.

This kid Dong Qin claims to have some military exploits, but he always can't see through this layer. "

Bai Fu smiled and said: "The general will understand. In the area of ​​Shanzhou, the general will lead the way!"

Bai Fu answered straightforwardly, Wei Boyu suddenly felt happy, put his arms around Bai Fu's shoulders, and said with a smile: "This is a good brother!"

The two understood each other, drank it in one gulp, and laughed.

……

The banquet was over, it was already the middle of the night.

Bai Fu followed the starry sky and galloped towards the barracks.

The sky in front of Bai Fu is like a dome, not high above, but hanging down.The sky is full of stars, dotted on the blue velvet sky.

Each star seems to be isolated and scattered, but it is actually distributed according to a wonderful law, forming a cloud map.These patterns seemed familiar, vaguely lingering in Bai Fu's mind.

The bright Milky Way is far away in the sky, and it seems to be within reach.It seems that as long as you ride the horse and go straight forward, you can break into the Milky Way and pick up the stars with your bare hands.

The vast universe rushed towards him, and Bai Fu suddenly became full of pride.

……

After three months of careful observation, Bai Fu finally managed the army.

Bai Fu took advantage of the situation and divided the [-] soldiers of Anbeiting into four armies.On the grounds of forming horns and coordinating defense, the soldiers of the Fourth Army were ordered to garrison in different areas of Shanzhou.

Although these four armies are still nominally under the command of the Northwest Court of Anbei, the command of the troops has been indirectly handed over to the corresponding ministers.

Only [-] Anbeiting elites and [-] logistics troops were left in the Anbeiting headquarters.

These five thousand elites were selected according to the list sent by Duan Xiushi, the former Anxi soldier and horse envoy, to Bai Fu. They are all veterans who have followed General Li Siye for many years and fought in the Western Regions.Not only brave and good at fighting, but also loyal!
The remaining [-] soldiers were divided into three armies, and were handed over to Wei Zhi, Li Ruoyou, and Wei Boyu according to their backing.

Hu Fangxiang, the eunuch who supervised the army, had already been bought by Li Ruoyou, and he turned a blind eye to Bai Fu's division of troops to garrison.

After the order to transfer troops was issued, Hu Fangxiang took the opportunity to move his camp to Li Ruoyou's residence.In his opinion, Bai Fu was still young and was no match for the rebels at all, and it would be the best policy to seek refuge with Li Tang's clan.

Wei Zhi and Li Ruoyou, as civil servants, were overjoyed to be able to command 4000 troops indirectly.

And the big winner was Wei Boyu, who already had tens of thousands of soldiers camping in the four towns in the west of Zhenxi, and this time, he had [-] more elite soldiers and powerful generals under his command.

Wei Boyu was overjoyed, and the big meal brought up was not free, so he naturally accepted it with peace of mind.

Hengmu and Shi Taiqing successfully brought a battalion of soldiers and horses they led back to Wei Boyu's garrison and set up camp.

Along the way, Hengmu sneered at Bai Fu.He said to Shi Taiqing: "I thought Bai Fu was some kind of great character, when General Wei got into trouble, he was scared, and he surrendered his military power so easily.

There is no will to divide the troops without authorization, not to mention whether the court will blame it in the future.If General Guangbi ordered him to lead his army into battle, how could these 5000 troops meet the enemy for a decisive battle? !
Unexpectedly, Datang had such a useless military envoy! "

Regarding Bai Fu's intention to divide the troops, Shi Taiqing didn't fully see clearly.However, he was mature and prudent, and did not fully agree with Heng Mu's point of view.

He pondered for a long time, and said to Hengmu: "There are many hills in the camp in the north courtyard of An'an. The generals don't move the generals, and the generals don't move soldiers. It looks like [-] horses, but it's actually a mess.

Just like you and me, we will definitely not sacrifice our lives for it.When the battle is unfavorable, in order to preserve the soldiers and horses under his command, he will be the first to retreat.In this regard, General Wei has long had a secret order.

That being the case, perhaps it would be a good move to divide the armies.

Although Bai Fu is young, his insight and grasp of people's hearts are precise and clear, and he has already shown the style of a general.

There is a set pattern in chess, which is to discard the pieces that are no longer able to work, and then start all over again, and change the day for another day.

If Bai Mu used this method, then this person should not be underestimated.

It is not easy to calculate the gains and losses in the face of interests without covering your eyes with floating clouds.

Those who dare to act decisively and cut off their wrists are all heroes! "

Heng Mu secretly smiled, disapproving.He pointed to the front and said: "Look, General Wei greeted us personally at the gate of the camp!"

After all, he laughed triumphantly, whipped his horsewhip, and led the army, galloping away.

……

As soon as the Anxi Army got the soldiers and horses in hand, Wei Boyu immediately turned his attention to the Shaanxi and Shence armies under Li Zhongchen's command.

The Shence Army was originally his direct descendant, so of course he was reluctant to hand it over to Li Zhongchen.

The following days will be the time for the generals of the Shence Army to choose sides, so I will not show it here.

　The night is clear and dustless, and the moonlight is like silver.When the wine is poured, it must be full of ten.Floating fame and profit, vain and hard work.There is a horse in a sigh, a fire in a stone, and a body in a dream.

　　Although holding the article, who will kiss the opening.And Tao Tao, happy to be naive.When to go home, be an idler.To a piano, a pot of wine, a stream of clouds.
