subvert the late Tang Dynasty

Zhao Zhang is indeed a talented person. He is shrewd and smooth, soft but tough, and always handles things with a three-pointed politeness, but makes people have nothing to say. Even if he has something to say, he can only choke in his heart. This is The excellence of this Guanzhong scholar.In just one night, he organized more than [-] defenders in the city who were unable to escape in the future, appeased the people in the city, and sealed off the Imperial City, Taiji Palace, and Daming Palace to wait for Huang Chao.

Zhu Wen came to see Huang Chao early in the morning. Huang Chao smiled and said, "I thought you were still recovering from your injuries in Luoyang. I was afraid that you would not be able to catch up with the grand occasion when the army entered Chang'an City. I didn't expect you to arrive last night. Hehe, how is your injury doing?" ?”

Zhu Wen said: "Thank you Master for your concern, it's almost recovered."

Huang Chao said: "Then go out for a walk with Teacher Wei first."

Zhu Wen bowed and agreed, and following Huang Chao, the two got on their horses and ran out of the camp, only then slowed down the reins.Zhu Wen looked far and wide, but saw that the terrain was undulating, with alternate gullies, dense hills, and a wave of yellow sand blown by the north wind. The typical terrain of the Loess Plateau really has a taste of western style.The broad Bashui has been frozen, and it looks white, adding a lot of bright colors to the western style scenery.

But Zhu Wen didn't care to watch the scenery, he didn't care to imagine the situation of Liu Bang's garrison who had established the Han Dynasty for 400 years with his bare hands, and he couldn't figure out what Liu Bang's garrison had in mind at this time.But now Zhu Wen had to plan for the situation after the rebel army entered Chang'an.Because if the rebel army really plundered and plundered wantonly after entering Chang'an as recorded in history, the consequences would of course be self-evident.

Perhaps this is the inevitability of history!

But why is it inevitable?Is it really impossible to change?If all this can be changed, then there is only one person who can change all this, and that is his master Huang Chao.

Zhu Wen thought about his thoughts silently, and followed Huang Chao confidently. Huang Chao whispered softly: "When autumn comes and September [-]th, I will kill the flowers after they bloom. Chang'an is full of fragrant fragrance, and the city is full of golden armor. Hehe, this poem is the work of the teacher's enthusiasm when he was young, I never thought that the teacher can really realize this wish in his lifetime, and God has treated me kindly."

Zhu Wen said: "Li Tang Wudao, this is what caused the world's public outrage. If Master becomes the emperor, how will he treat the people of the world?"

Huang Chao raised his eyes sharply, staring at Zhu Wen closely, his usually warm eyes like spring cast an inexplicable chill at this moment, maybe this is the so-called majesty of an emperor, right?Zhu Wen thought in his heart.

Huang Chao's gaze was unnatural for a moment, and then turned calm again. He said slowly: "It's too early to talk about this now. Besides, I'm used to wandering as a teacher, how can I bear that kind of restraint?"

Zhu Wen said: "Master, this kind of thing is not the time to be humble. When it should be done, you must do your part, because whoever is the emperor determines whether the people of the world can live and work in peace and contentment. If you are not the emperor, who can be? Shang Rang seems shrewd In fact, he has no opinion; Meng Kai is more than brave but can only fight and kill; Lin Yan is extremely deep, but not kind enough; Huang Ding Huang is still young, and his temper is too weak. Others do not have this qualification. It’s better to plan ahead.”

Huang Chao made a joke and said: "Actually, you are very suitable to be the emperor. You are resourceful, generous, and cautious. Even in terms of martial arts, your future achievements will definitely not be inferior to mine. Isn't it a very good one?" Candidates?"

Zhu Wen hurriedly said in fear and trepidation: "How dare the disciple, master, please don't humiliate the disciple."

Huang Chao said with a smile: "Didn't you say you should do your part? Why are you starting to shirk now?"

Zhu Wen also said with a smile: "It also depends on what it is, and it depends on who it is. The disciples are young and have little knowledge, so how can they know how to govern the world? Now that the world is just in chaos, it doesn't mean that you can sit back and relax after defeating Luoyang and Chang'an. In the future There is still a long, long way to go, the chaos at the end of the Tang Dynasty was no less than that of the Three Kingdoms, and it is impossible to unify the whole world without a few decades."

Huang Chao sighed: "Yes, the world is in chaos, and the people who suffer are not all the common people?"

Zhu Wen couldn't help thinking of Zhang Yanghao's Tongguan Gu, and immediately blurted out: "The mountains and rivers are like gatherings, the waves are like anger, and the mountains and rivers are outside and inside the Tongguan Road. Looking at the western capital, I hesitate. Sad Qin and Han classics travel, there are thousands of palaces and palaces. Prosperity, the people are suffering; death, the people are suffering. Alas, I hope that Master will be sympathetic to the people of the world after he enters Chang’an, and don’t want to repeat the mistakes of Li and Tang’s downfall.”

Huang Chao pondered for a while, and said: "As a teacher, I will keep your words in mind. I will try my best to restrain the rebel army and not disturb the people after entering the city. If you think about it, you won’t mess around with it!”

Zhu Wen sighed, "I hope so."

At this moment, Lin Yan galloped his horse towards this side. When he got close, he got off his horse and said, "Uncle, General Zhang Zhifang of Tang Jinwu led his troops to Bashang to welcome King Huang into Chang'an!" Lin Yan couldn't hide a trace of excitement on his face. color.

Huang Chao said lightly: "Understood, you go back and prepare first. After the soldiers have finished eating, we will set off and go to Chang'an. You go and pass on my general order, saying that after the army enters Chang'an, there will be no crime in autumn. If there is any robbery When something happens that bullies the common people, it must not be lightly forgiven!"

Lin Yan took the order and left.

Looking at Lin Yan's back, Zhu Wen couldn't help thinking of the records about Huang Chao's death in history. Most of the records said that Huang Chao died at the hands of Lin Yan, so when Zhu Wen saw Lin Yan for the first time Just don't like this guy.Coupled with the fact that Lin Yan was usually taciturn and had a solemn look, he looked a little unattractive no matter what.

Seeing Zhu Wen staring at Lin Yan's back in a daze, Huang Chao couldn't help asking, "Third brother, why are you in a daze?"

Zhu Wen just woke up from his contemplation, and wanted to tell Huang Chao to be careful of Lin Yan, but he didn't know where to start. If Huang Chao asked the reason, he would not be able to answer.Hesitating in his heart, he concealed: "No, it's nothing, I was thinking about Zhang Zhifang's conspiracy?"

Huang Chao smiled and said, "No, it must be Zhao Zhang's idea to let Zhang Zhifang come to meet us. Zhao Zhang, a scholar in Guanzhong, is cautious, so how could he be in danger? Third, you are too worried."

Zhu Wen also smiled and said, "I hope I'm worrying too much. Let's go back, Master. No matter how that Zhang Zhifang was also a general of Jinwu in the Tang Dynasty, we can't treat him so lightly."

Huang Chao smiled and said: "You are good at everything, except for one thing, that is too kind. In fact, asking him to wait a little longer is to eliminate his arrogance. It's just to survive. How can you really do things for us?"

Zhu Wen was slightly taken aback, and said: "You mean that when his arrogance is wiped away, he can only smash the jar and follow our rebel army wholeheartedly, doesn't it?"

Huang Chao nodded and said, "That's the truth."

The master and the apprentice chatted for a while on the shore of the Bashui River, and then slowly returned to the camp to meet the unlucky surrendered general Zhang Zhifang.
