Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 505

Shanzhou is the later Sanmenxia City.

The last envoy of the Baoyi Army in Shanzhou in the late Jin Dynasty was concurrently served by the prince Shi Yanxu.

The real power is in the hands of Zhao Hui, the queen of the Baoyi Army, and the guest army stationed here - Wang Yan and Hou Zhang, the capitals of the Fengguo Army.

Among them, after the town's Baoyi army mobilized elites to go north to fight against the Liao Dynasty, there were only a few old, weak, sick and disabled left. Zhao Hui entered Shanzhou as the commander of the Fengguo army.

After taking office, Zhao Hui changed some of the more than [-] Fengguo Army into Baoyi Army on the spot.

Wang Yan and Hou Zhang continued to stay as guest troops, each with more than [-] soldiers in their hands.

In addition, just after entering Tokyo, Yelu Deguang sent Liao general Liu Yuan to lead [-] soldiers from Yingzhou to Shanzhou to serve as the post-stay of the Shanzhou Baoyi Army.

Zhao Hui, Wang Yan, and Hou Zhang were photographed by the power of the Khitan people, and Liu Yuan did not wantonly attack the grassland like other Liao generals, so he never resisted.

But in his heart, he was still very unwilling to accept the rule of the Khitan people.

Among them, Zhao Hui, the soldier who stayed behind, was the commander of the Imperial Army in the Mingzong period of the later Tang Dynasty. He was quite familiar with Liu Zhiyuan and others.

It's just that they've been waiting for almost half a year, and Liu Zhiyuan hasn't moved yet.

In Zhao Hui's mansion, the three of them were drinking wine with heavy thoughts. Although Liao General Liu Yuan didn't wantonly hit Caogu, it's not like he didn't want to fight Caogu.

When the 500 people from the Liao army came, they took away all the benefits that belonged to the three of them and the soldiers under them.

In this era, the dental soldiers below have no income, but it is a very dangerous thing.

Zhao Hui and the others had already sensed the imminent move of the Ya soldiers below. If an outbreak broke out, they would have no other choice but to lead the Ya soldiers to kill the Liao soldiers.

But now Liu Zhiyuan, the king of Beiping County in Taiyuan, has not raised his troops to rebel, but they have rebelled first.

The three drank a few cups, but the old servant of Zhao Hui's mansion rushed over suddenly, and he ran straight to Zhao Hui's ear and whispered.

"Lang Jun, someone sent a letter to the concierge, claiming to be an old acquaintance of the lord, seeking to meet him, but I have carefully identified it. If it is an old acquaintance of the lord, the servant should know it, but it seems that this person has never been seen before."

When Zhao Hui heard this, his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he was too original?He stretched out his hand.

"Let's take a look at the letters."

The old servant quickly took the letter, and Wang Yan and Hou Zhang also came over. It would be great if it was too original.

But after the letter was opened, there was only one sentence in the letter, "Have you ever remembered the kindness of Lanzhou's recall?" '

Wang Yan, Hou Zhang and Zhao Hui's old servant looked at each other, not knowing what it meant, but Zhao Hui was silently stunned, and soon burst into tears.

He looked at the three of them and said, "A certain Zhao Chongguang had two benefactors in his life.

In the past, I joined the army with a weak crown. Later, His Majesty Zhuangmiao took pity on my loneliness and accepted me as a personal guard, treating me like a younger brother.

Later, a certain king conquered Wang Yan from Wei Wangji, and when Zhuangmiao landslide, I was trapped in the poor land of Lanzhou. It was the emperor of Mingmiao who summoned a certain person to return to the Central Plains, so as to avoid dying in the wilderness, and have the grace of rebuilding. "

Only then did everyone suddenly realize what Lanzhou's grace to recall meant.

Nalanzhou (Gulin, Luzhou, Sichuan) is on the edge of Shu, close to Zangmang, high mountains and dense forests, and there are many miasma and epidemics. When the northerners arrived in that place, there were very few long-lived people. Zhao Hui was recalled by Mingzong himself. Come on, it is true that we are reborn with kindness.

Hou Zhang suddenly remembered something, and he suddenly looked at Zhao Hui, "In this way, the person who submitted the letter must have a relationship with the Emperor Mingmiao, otherwise this term cannot be used.

But the Mingmiao emperor's heirs were almost killed, only Xu Wang was still alive, but Xu Wang had disappeared a few months ago. "

Wang Yan also asked, "Can you confirm that this is written by someone close to Ming Temple?"

Zhao Hui nodded, "The golden seal at the end of this letter is in the private collection of His Majesty Mingmiao in the past. It was this chapter that His Majesty used when he called someone back to Tokyo."

Wang Yan's expression also became weird, "When a certain year was in Tokyo, thanks to Princess Yongle's son-in-law, Captain Murong Jinwu, he often went to Guiyi Building to eat and drink.

A few months ago, someone received news that Princess Yongle and Murong Jinwu begged Hexi Liangwang to take Xu Wang to Liangzhou to take care of him. "

"Is this really true?" Zhao Hui and Hou Zhang's eyes widened as soon as Wang Yan finished speaking.

In this world, if Liu Zhiyuan did not rise up to resist, then the only choice left for the generals who refused to submit to the Khitans was Zhang Zhao.

Although in their view, Zhang Zhao is not a member of Daibei Wuxun, and even his ethnic identity is somewhat suspicious.

But after Zhang Zhao's righteous return to the country several times and Murong Xinchang's foundation laid in Tokyo for more than a year, people in the world still regard Zhang Zhao, Liang country, as Tang'er country, at least they will not regard Zhang Zhao as Yelu Deguang. of foreigners.

"It should be true. Although there is no evidence, Queen Xu's mother and son have disappeared with Princess Yong'an. In addition, the privy envoy and the public went to Hexi some time ago. I think it is very likely that he took away Queen Xu's mother and son."

Zhao Hui fell into hesitation, and the matter was already clear. If Xu Wang really went to Liang Country, then the people outside were probably from Liang Country.

In addition, it was rumored some time ago that King Zhang Tianwang of the Liang Kingdom had already entered Guanzhong, so the purpose of the visit was also very clear.

The eyes of the three people in the room looked at Zhao Hui, which doubled his pressure.

Now it's not just about whether to oppose Liao, but also the question of whether to take refuge in Zhang Zhao or Liu Zhiyuan.

Suddenly, footsteps came from outside the door, everyone was startled and looked up.

I saw a young man wearing a gown and a scholar dressed up as a scholar walking in the door, but there was a young man who looked brave and powerful. He was Zhao Hui's eldest son Zhao Yanjin.

As soon as Zhao Yanjin came in, he shouted loudly: "Why do you hesitate, my lord? The king of Peiping didn't dare to take the Datong army south in the past, and he has long since lost the expectations of being a hero in the world.

Now Shanzhou is close to Guanzhong, thousands of miles away from Hedong, and there are Khitan people in between, how can we look far away? "

Before Zhao Hui said anything, Wang Yan and Hou Zhang were overjoyed and went up to greet Zhao Yanjin. Both of them clasped their hands at Zhao Yanjin and asked.

"When did Mr. Da Lang come back? You said that Zhao Kuangzan would definitely rebel if he went to Hezhong. What's the real situation now?"

As for this Zhao Yanjin, even though he is only one, his reputation in the Fengguo Army is known to everyone, and his strategy and courage are even better than that of his father Zhao Hui.

Although Zhao Yanjin was born in a family of military generals, he was eager to learn since he was a child. When Zhao Hui followed Zhao Zaili to serve in Songzhou, Zhao Zaili robbed the big households in the countryside.

The young men in the army all went to fight for the goods, only Zhao Yanjin, who was 13 years old, didn't want the goods, and took away dozens of books that his companions didn't want.

Among the young tooth generals who followed Zhao Zaili back then, he was laughed at, and his companions secretly ridiculed him for his ignorance of high and low.

When they grew up, most of their young companions followed Zhao Zaili to rebellion several times, or died in the rebellion army, or buried their bodies on the battlefield.

Only Zhao Yanjin was capable of writing and martial arts, and had insight into opportunities everywhere. At his young age, he was famous in the entire Fengguo army. Senior veterans like Wang Yan and Hou Zhang who held military power also admired him.

Last month, Zhao Kuangzan led [-] soldiers and marched westward to guard the Hezhong Mansion. He once passed through Shanzhou. General Liu Yuan of the Liao Dynasty hosted a banquet for him.

Zhao Yanjin only had a few words with Zhao Kuangzan, and when he came back, he privately said that Zhao Kuangzan must go to the blue sky and the fish into the sea.

So he brought more than a dozen riders and said he was going to investigate the situation in Guanzhong, but he just came back now.

Hearing Wang Yan and Hou Zhang's question, Zhao Yanjin arched his hands, "When I arrived at the boundary of Hezhong Mansion, I found that the land was wide on the outside and tight on the inside, and there were also valiant cavalry in the countryside to investigate, but I couldn't go deep, so I had to come back."

Wang Yan sighed sadly, "What should I do? If we can't find any news about the Hezhong Mansion or even Guanzhong, I will be surrounded by both sides, and the King of Peking will not move. If we drag on, the soldiers below will rise up and kill us. "

Zhao Yanjin smiled mysteriously, looked at Wang Yan and said: "On the contrary, the signs are already obvious, someone guessed Zhao Kuangzan's purpose of going to Hezhong Mansion, and he went to seek refuge with King Liang.

This person was a classmate with a certain person when he was young. In the past, the emperor of the Ming Temple regarded him as his grandson and called him a commander, and he had great expectations.

His words must recall the great dynasties, and he is always proud of his blood. How can he bear his anger and live under the barbarians?

If he went to the Hezhong Mansion and really served the Khitan people, there is no warning in Guanzhong at this moment, why should he show others how to be lenient and tight?

It's hard to say that Liangguo's army is about to arrive at Hezhong Mansion, Zhao Kuangzan did it just now in order to keep it a secret! "

After finishing speaking, Zhao Yanjin saw that the three of them were in shock and deep thought, he arched his hands and said to Zhao Hui.

"For those who voted outside the mansion, the boy has already taken him outside the door, so don't hesitate, my lord, since everyone has already entered the mansion anyway."

Zhao Hui had a terrible headache, glanced at Zhao Yanjin, and said to Wang Yan and Hou Zhang in desperation.

"The matter has come to this point, so we can't blame us, it's not because we were careless, but because the King of Peking didn't raise the flag for a long time.

If the person outside the door is really from Liang, then this Shanzhou should belong to His Royal Highness King Liang. "

. . . .

The next day, Zhao Hui, a soldier of the Baoyi Army in Shanzhou, invited General Liu Yuan of the Liao Dynasty to a banquet.

At the same time, Zhao Yanjin, the envoy of Baoyi Army's yamen, Wang Yan, Hou Zhang, the capital of the Fengguo Army, and others ambushed the troops in the mansion, and killed seven generals under Liao general Liu Yuan during the banquet.

Afterwards, the Baoyi Army and the Fengguo Army joined forces and stormed the two villages stationed by the Liao soldiers. Shanzhou Jianer, who had suffered greatly from the Liao army's looting, also came to help after hearing the news.

During the roar of the mountains and the tsunami, more than a thousand soldiers from Liaoyingzhou were killed. Everyone recommended Zhao Hui as the governor of the Shanzhou Baoyi Army, and sent people to surrender to Zhang Zhao in Hezhong Prefecture.

Three days later, Geng Chongmei, the Jiedu envoy of the Baoyi Army in Shanzhou sent by Yelu Deguang, led [-] troops to twenty miles east of Shanzhou.

That night, Wu Xingde, Marquis of Yu, the capital of the Ning State Army, summoned the military academy under his command, saying: "Our generation has received the great kindness of the country, but is controlled by Khitan. Instead of leaving our hometown and throwing ourselves into frontier fortresses, we will become ghosts from foreign lands. If you and your lords drive out the evil party, Dedicated to the fate of the destiny. Build meritorious deeds, avoid disasters, and seek wealth and honor?"

All the military academies were overjoyed, and they all said: "I have already had this intention, and today I am given a good opportunity, so I dare not die!"

Therefore, Wu Xingde's troops raised fire at dawn to warn the Shanzhou army, and then launched a fierce attack on the Khitan camp.

The soldiers of the Ning State Army were as high as a rainbow, one against a hundred, and charged at Geng Chongmei and King Xi's camp.

Geng Chongmei and Yan Ya couldn't resist, and more than [-] people collapsed in an instant. Geng Chongmei and others slipped into the boat left by the Yellow River with only a hundred people, and fled downstream in embarrassment.
