Late Tang Dynasty: I

Chapter 27 The Road to Shu is Difficult Than Going to the Blue Sky (Please recommend, please recommend)
Shu Dao Nan
If you want to enter Sichuan, you have to go to Hanzhong first in ancient times, and enter Sichuan from Hanzhong.

There are four roads from Chang'an to Hanzhong. First, the Chencang plank road, which is the ancient Han road. Han Xin took this road when he entered the land of the Three Qin Dynasties. However, due to years of disrepair, many places on the plank road were damaged. .

The second is Baoxie Road, which is the way Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi sent troops when they faced each other. The exit of this road is Xiegu, where Zhuge Kongming almost burned Sima Yi to death.

Three times to Ziwu Valley, the trail is very dangerous, the exit is Chang'an South, the road is difficult to walk, the Ziwu trail mentioned by Wei Yan of the Three Kingdoms is this road, King Chuang walked this road at the end of Ming Dynasty, and was killed by Sun Chuanting.

The Tangluo Road in all directions and the official road of the Tang Dynasty are also the roads with the best conditions, but the entrance to Zhouzhi County belongs to Fengxiang Jiedu, which is Li Maozhen's territory.

Hanzhong, on the other hand, belongs to Shannan West Road and is controlled by Yang Shouliang, the adopted son of Yang Fugong.

At that time, Langzhou belonged to Shannan West Road, but when Tian Lingzi left Xichuan, he was afraid that someone would attack him, so he met Yang Fugong. Langzhou also belongs to Shannan West Road.

"Yang Shouliang, Li Maozhen!"

"Your Majesty, the people of Longyou rebelled, and Li Maozhen led the troops to quell them. At that time, they will definitely not go to war with the imperial court. The imperial court will open the Tangluo Avenue with a piece of imperial edict. As for Hanzhong, Yang Fugong is still there, so he can tell Yang Shouliang to let him Get out of the road."

Li Ye remained silent, trying to persuade Yang Fugong that it was fine, the old dog was very afraid of death, but even if he took out the letter, would Yang Shouliang believe it?

Yang Shouliang must not have been unaware of such a big event in the imperial court. This year, the taxes on Shannan West Road were not paid, and the imperial imperial edicts were turned a deaf ear.

The best way is to level Hanzhong.

Yang Shouliang has 5 soldiers. Although his combat power is not good, Yang Shouliang was beaten up by Li Maozhen and Wang Jian in history, but if [-] troops are used to defend the city, the court would have to spend a lot of money to win them. Now the court only has such a small force, but Can't stand the toss.

In addition, Chen Jingxuan, Gu Yanlang, Wang Jian, and Yang Shouliang, who are now in Shu, and Li Maozhen, who is watching covetously, are intertwined with each other, and they affect the whole body.

After much deliberation, Li Ye still thought that there was no need to go to war in Hanzhong at this time, and if he could drive the nail in this time, he would have achieved his goal.

"That's the only way!"

……

Chang'an West

When the army moved out, everything was complicated. Considering that the Hanzhong Plain extended in all directions, Li Ye handed over [-] cavalry from Zuo Xiao to Zhang Chengye.

The infantry and cavalry who entered Sichuan, together with the personal guards and the officer corps, totaled more than [-] people.

This is the first time the imperial court sent troops after Li Ye succeeded to the throne.

The clothing, armor, weapons, food and grass have been prepared for half a month.

Outside the city, Li Ye led a hundred officials to see them off, and rode on horseback to review the soldiers.

After three or four months of training, Li Ye felt that the demeanor of the officers and soldiers had changed a lot. They were no longer slouchy as before. They stood up straight, lined up neatly, and possessed a chilling aura.

"I'm waiting for you to return from your achievements!"

"Hooray, hooray."

Li Ye took off his close-fitting sword, handed it to Zhang Yi, and said: "It's difficult to go, you should take care of your body. I will give this sword to the general, and I will be with you."

"Your Majesty, I will repay Your Majesty with all my strength."

To Zhang Chengye, there was nothing to explain, they held hands tightly, and said respectfully.

Li Ye was sent ten miles away without knowing it, and when the army was far away and out of sight, he felt lost.

"Your Majesty, it's cold at night, take care of the dragon's body?"

Li Ye secretly said: "Stay in Guo County tonight, and arrive in Zhouzhi County tomorrow, then you can enter Tangluo Avenue in the next day, and you can enter Hanzhong in half a month..."

……

One hundred miles west of Chang'an, Fufeng County.

From time to time, some people told the monks in Famen Temple that they were armed with weapons to urge food, and killed one of the people with a stick.

Li Qingzhi, the county magistrate, led dozens of yamen servants into the monastery to detain people. He mistakenly broke into the monastery treasury and found hundreds of soldiers.

Li Ye was overjoyed, Zhang Chengye was really reliable in his work, and before he left, he was really surprised by his move, and hurriedly announced that Prime Minister Du Rangneng, Kong Wei, and Zhang Jun went to Yanying Hall to discuss matters.

"Famen Temple secretly hides weapons and intends to rebel. What do you think?"

Zhang Jun was stunned for a moment, the emperor has decided the nature of this matter, a serious crime of treason, this must be punished and banned.

"Is there a misunderstanding?"

"Everybody gets the booty."

Zhang Jun frowned slightly, and said, "Your Majesty wants to destroy the Buddha."

Li Ye's eyes narrowed slightly, this handsome man has a rebellious back, what do you mean I want to destroy Buddha!This matter is to put me in the limelight and risk the displeasure of the world.

Buddhism is prosperous, and there are quite a few people in Tang Dynasty who believe in it.

"It's not that I want to destroy the Buddha, but the Famen Temple secretly hid weapons, recruited monks and soldiers, and harmed the people. This is also conspiracy."

Li Ye kicked the ball back to the prime minister. It's not that I want to destroy the Buddha, it's that the monks have committed the crime of treason. You prime ministers all understand the laws of the Tang Dynasty. You should know what to do about treason.

"Your Majesty, there are many bandits in Fufeng, and Famen Temple raises monks and soldiers just to protect itself. In the past, Emperor Xianzong, Yizong, and the first emperors all welcomed the Buddha bone and Famen Temple. Buddhism protected the Tang Dynasty, and it has really contributed to the community."

It is really different to hold the right to explain, Li Ye is very angry.

"Xianzong welcomed back the Buddha bone relics. Huainan was in chaos, Xianzong died of illness that year, and his father welcomed the relics back then. Wei Bo rebelled. Unexpected events happened that year. The first emperor enshrined the relics. Huang Chao raised troops and the world was in chaos. Ai Qing's words, this is The blessings of the Buddha are repaid."

In the late Tang Dynasty, except Wu Zong, everyone worshiped the Buddha devoutly. It’s an evil way to say, whoever welcomes the Buddha’s bone relic will be unlucky. Either he died that year, or the world was in chaos. I really don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse.

Zhang Jun: "..."

Du Rangneng and Kong Wei remained silent, the two had a rare tacit understanding in this matter, and neither wanted to provoke it.

Li Ye is interested in Kong Wei, Kong Wei is the leader of scholars after Kong Sheng, with a thick neck and thick skin.

"What does Kong Aiqing think?"

Kong Wei said: "Your Majesty, please judge!"

Li Ye walked down the steps and said: "Okay, this is a very big time, I have issued an edict to the world, and Kong Aiqing is appointed to act as the agent for this matter. He should uphold justice and do not harm the people."

"..."

Kong Wei was horrified and told the world?Is this going to spark a debate between Buddhism and Confucianism?

"Your Majesty, I'm old and weak, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do the job."

Li Ye said: "It's nothing, nothing. I ordered Sun Dezhao, the governor, to lead the right Shenwei army in the first capital and the second capital with 2000 troops, and you will dispatch them."

"..."

That night Li Ye ordered Sun Dezhao to lead troops to search more than [-] temples including Famen, Dayan, and Tianquan. Yang Yan, the right servant of the household department, sent more than [-] people to follow the army to inspect.

A total of more than 300 million yuan of money, [-] million stones of grain, countless gold, silver and bronze wares, and nearly one million acres of land, and more than [-] hidden households.

It is really rich, the Famen Temple is down, and the Tang Dynasty is full.

Although Kong Wei was ordered by the emperor, he originally planned to stay in the mansion to recover from his illness, but when he heard that Sun Dezhao had dispatched troops, he saw stars in his eyes, knowing that he was in a whirlpool.

"Your Majesty mistaken me!"

"Your Majesty mistaken me!"
