Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 426
Chapter One and Twenty Eight

Throughout the history of the world, you will find a very strange phenomenon.Whether it is the Persian Empire that spans thousands of miles, the Alexander Empire, or the Roman Empire, they all rise brilliantly like stars and comets in the long river of history, and wither quickly like a short-lived epiphyllum.

Today's Persian Empire has long since ceased to exist, and the Alexander Empire can only find traces of its existence in the dust of history. As for the Roman Empire, there are only infinite reveries left.

Looking at the forest of nations in the whole world, only the Chinese nation stands still.The general trend of China has always been the situation that long-term division must be united, and long-term unity must be divided. No matter what, most of the ethnic groups with the Han nationality as the main body will unify ancient China. Walking with unity.

The awakening of the Chinese nation and national consciousness was far earlier than other countries in the world.As early as after the unification of Qin Shihuang, the Chinese nation faced severe survival problems. Concentrating their forces to resist the Huns' invasion of the south became the unified thought of the Chinese nation. In this case, unity means strength.

Of course, during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Huaxia was severely beaten by the northern nomads, and was tortured to death.More than 400 million Han people in the north were slaughtered, leaving less than 300 million people. The whole nation has reached the brink of genocide. In this case, Yang Jian stands out.As for the German mustache, at that time, Yang Jian represented the interests of the Chinese nation, so the history of enslavement of the entire nation for more than [-] years began to end.

Yang Jian, Yang Guang and his son were finally defeated by the counterattack of the Guanlong aristocratic group who were unwilling to fail.As the saying goes, the king loses the bandits, the common people don't care who is the emperor, what they care most about is whether the emperor can lead them to live a good life.In the eyes of Shan Xiongxin and others, Li Tang is a good emperor who can guarantee the basic survival rights of every common people so that they can reproduce.This means destiny.

On the contrary, in this regard, Wang Shichong did relatively poorly.Luoyang is usually fine, and it can be regarded as a fertile land, but during the war, Luoyang was different. It belonged to the place of the Fourth World War. From the ninth year of Daye, the surrounding area of ​​Luoyang was the center of turmoil in the world. A large number of villages were destroyed by the war. People died innocently in this meaningless internal strife.

Of course, the most difficult thing for Shan Xiongxin to understand is that Wang Shichong resisted Tang in order to expand his troops.From time to time, the people are forced to become stronger, and the people are forced to collect taxes. The people who have been devastated by the war have had a difficult life, and now it is even worse.

What Shan Xiongxin wants to say about long-term strategic vision is definitely nonsense.He can't see through the general trend of the world, but he knows that the longer Wang Shichong resists, the more miserable the people in the Central Plains will be, and countless people will destroy their families, villages and clans.Since Li Tang can let go of these Zheng Jun soldiers whose hands are stained with the blood of Tang soldiers, he will definitely treat the people well.

"Return to Li Tang and unify the world｜" This idea gradually became Shan Xiongxin's obsession.

Chen Ying met Shan Xiongxin with sunken eyes in his four-wheeled carriage. In just three days, this majestic eight-foot-tall man lost a lot of weight.

As soon as he met Shan Xiongxin, he knelt down in front of Chen Ying with a plop.

Chen Ying did not imitate the way of Mingzhu in the TV series, he took Shan Xiongxin's arm and tried to persuade Wei.Chen Ying said lightly: "General Shan, have you figured it out yet?"

Shan Xiongxin lowered his head, and suddenly raised his head: "Xiongxin has figured it out, if Xiongxin doesn't surrender to Tang, he will be too ungrateful."

Chen Ying's eyes were like lightning, he looked at Shan Xiong and said, "Are you willing to surrender?"

Unexpectedly, Shan Xiongxin shook his head unexpectedly, and sighed: "Guozhu Li has such a broad mind, no wonder he can defeat Xue Ju, Li Gui, Liu Wuzhou, swallow thousands of miles like a tiger, and a tiger looks at the Central Plains, God, God! Destiny belongs... It's just that Xiongxin can't surrender, it's not that he doesn't want to surrender, but he can't."

Speaking of this, Shan Xiongxin had a struggling and tangled look on his face. His expression was very painful, as if thinking of breaking out at any time. Ashina Simo was worried that Shan Xiongxin would break out and hurt Chen Ying, so he had already put his hand on the side of the horizontal knife. On the horizontal handle, as long as Shan Xiongxin dared to move, he would cut off his neck immediately.

Shan Xiong said: "When you meet this enlightened lord, how can you not return! It's just that a man does something and doesn't do something. Although my grandfather is not worthy of our brothers' lives, he has never failed Xiongxin. If Xiongxin fails his grandfather, Wouldn't it be like a beast to repay kindness and revenge?"

Chen Ying slightly realized that although Shan Xiongxin was stupid and loyal, Chen Ying liked it even more, because what he could give Shan Xiongxin was always limited. No matter Li Shimin or Li Jiancheng, they could give Shan Xiongxin more things. Only such Shan Xiongxin is worthy of Chen Ying's reliance.Chen Ying sighed and said: "General Shan has something to hide, but it's okay to say, if the general can do it, I will definitely do it for you."

Shan Xiongxin's eyes were a little red: "Xiongxin can't help it. Although Xiongxin's wife is in Luoyang, his grandfather will not treat her badly because of this, but Xiongxin and hundreds of other family members are all in Luoyang. , They will definitely die! This is a total of hundreds of lives, and only if I die can I exchange for them a glimmer of life!"

Chen Yingdao: "General Shan, don't worry, Mr. Chen has already sent you to Luoyang City to pick up your family members. If things go well, then you can be reunited with your family members within ten days at least, or half a month at most! "

When Shan Xiongxin heard this, he was very moved: "Whether General Chen can save people or not, Shan Xiongxin swears allegiance to the general. If there is something wrong with them, Xiongxin will find ways to avenge them!"

Chen Yingdao: "I have declared to the outside world that General Shan would rather die than surrender, and I have already committed suicide. I am afraid that this news has already reached Luoyang. If Wang Shichong wants to come, he will not be in a hurry. It can also be left to Luoyang. A few days of preparation time, after all In Luoyang, the longer the preparation time, the greater the chance of success."

Shan Xiongxin was slightly startled, thought for a while and said: "General, Xiongxin has a close friend in Luoyang, named Qi Guoyuan, who lives in Tianjin Street, Luoyang, and there are three cherry trees in front of the door. If you rely on Xiongxin's token, you can entrust He goes to help."

After hearing the name Qi Guoyuan, Chen Ying still had some vague impressions.In "Wagang Heroes" and other storytelling books, Qi Guoyuan's skills are low, and he often swaggers in front of the battle with a huge paper sledgehammer. Those who don't know, such as Qin Qiong and Pei Yuanqing, were once deceived by him during the confrontation, until the weapons of the two sides collided , the paper hammer immediately showed its feet.Qi Guoyuan ranked No. 20 among the heroes of Jiajialou, and was named one of the eight generals by Cheng Yaojin, the incarnate demon king in Wagang.

"Paper General?" Chen Ying asked suspiciously, "Is this person reliable?"

Shan Xiong said: "Very reliable, Xiong Xin can guarantee it with his life."

Speaking of this, Shan Xiongxin took out a small jade token from his bosom, which was white and flawless, about the size of a finger, and Shan Xiongxin handed the jade token to Chen Ying: "If it is convenient for the general, please pass this token Give it to Qi Guoyuan, he will definitely believe that the person here is entrusted by Xiongxin."

Chen Ying nodded and looked at the jade tablet, only to see a flying wolf with two wings on its back vaguely engraved on it. Chen Ying didn't know that this was Shan Xiongzhu's unique mark.

With the surrender of Shan Xiongxin, the subsequent reorganization will be much easier. In the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties, there was no concept of loyalty to the emperor, and the old Wagang generals such as Shan Xiongxin's subordinates actually did not have much deep feelings for Wang Shichong. Originally, they had long wanted to surrender, and Fan Hu even forced Shan Xiongxin to surrender in order to surrender Shan Xiongxin.

When Shan Xiongxin surrendered, it was easy to tell which people in the army could be used, and which people were Wang Shichong's confidantes, who could not be bought or used.

Shan Xiongxin killed 37 generals above the school lieutenant in the broken prisoner camp, but Fan Hu was the only one, which surprised Chen Ying.Under the leadership of Shan Xiongxin, the soldiers of the surrendered army who had completed the reorganization started intensive training according to Chen Ying's tactics.
