Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 165 The Reversal of Han and Hu People

Early in the morning, as soon as Li Fei arrived at the Jingzhao Yamen, a major incident happened. People from the Jingying and the frontier troops brought by An Lushan fought.More than 60 people were injured, most of whom were from the Beijing camp, but among the injured frontier soldiers, three were Hu generals under An Lushan, who were allowed to enter the Daming Palace with An Lushan for a banquet.

When Li Fei arrived, people from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment also arrived.Because it is not an ordinary public security case, it is related to the Beijing camp and the frontier army, so the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment jointly handle it.

Soon, all the Jingying involved in the fight were captured.

"It was the first thing they picked. Why did they only arrest us and not them!" The man who spoke was a strong man, a warrior.

After Zhan Youwei's narration, Li Fei knew that this person's name was Wu Sheng, and he was a sixth-rank Lieutenant Zhaowu.It was this Wu Sheng who wounded the three Hu generals all by himself.

To be able to injure the three fierce generals of Anlu Mountain with one enemy and three generals, this Wu Sheng is indeed a warrior!
However, there was no doubt that he was in serious trouble. The people from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment only arrested the Beijing camp that participated in the fight with him, but ignored the frontier troops in Anlu Mountain.

"I don't accept it! This is the capital city, at the foot of the emperor. We are the capital camp defending the capital city. Those barbarians picked it first. Why don't you arrest them? Why don't you arrest them!" Wu Sheng was so angry that he scolded like thunder, very Dissatisfied.

It's a pity that no one paid any attention to him, and the people from the Ministry of Punishment directly put him in the dungeon.

When the incident was reported to Tang Xuanzong, Tang Xuanzong was furious.

There was no interrogation, no confrontation, let alone the reason for the fight between the two sides. Tang Xuanzong directly ordered all the Beijing camp involved in the fight to be punished thirty times. Down.

The military sticks in the barracks were slightly heavier, and fifty or sixty blows could kill a person. This one hundred blows meant that he never thought of giving Wu Sheng a way to survive.

On the same day, after the execution was over, Wu Sheng was directly thrown outside the jail.

"It's too miserable!" Li Fei looked at Wu Sheng on the ground, bleeding all over his body, it was horrible.

"Being beaten like this, I don't know if I can survive." Zhang Shuo, who came with Li Fei, said sympathetically.

"Whether he can survive depends on his good fortune, and bring him back." Li Fei came here specially to 'pick' Wu Sheng back. For such a warrior, he always looked at him differently, and he didn't want him to be beaten to death like this. .

Although Li Fei studied gynecology, and the eldest grandson Lanxin also majored in gynecology, it doesn't mean that they can't deal with trauma, where the place that was cracked and oozing blood should be stitched, and the best medicine should be used. The rest depends on Wu Sheng's own fate.

A warrior is a warrior, with excellent physical fitness and quick recovery of consciousness.

At night, Wu Sheng woke up.

"Are you awake?" Li Fei walked in with a smile.

"Master Wu Guogong?" Because his back was injured, Wu Sheng was lying on his stomach, and he saw Li Fei walking in at a glance.Li Fei may not have known him before, but he did. Just what Li Fei did when he became Jing Zhaoyin made people like him admire him.

"Thank you for saving me." Wu Sheng said gratefully.

"It's good to know, saving you is not for nothing, remember that you owe me your life, don't die first if you can't bear it." Li Fei said half-jokingly.

"Can we not be so direct?" Wu Sheng grinned, he likes direct people the most, and he doesn't think Li Fei's words are repaying favors, besides, Li Fei has indeed saved his life, and he is very grateful.

"You have already been resigned. I'm afraid you won't be able to go back to the army. What are your plans in the future?" Li Fei was very direct. He knew that the more direct he spoke to people like Wu Sheng, the more he would win their favor. .

"Resignation——"

"Your Majesty, even if I was at fault, the matter was provoked by those barbarians first. Their fault is definitely greater. Why does Your Majesty only punish the people in our Beijing camp, but ignore the mistakes of those barbarians? How unfair!" Thinking of being resigned from his job and being beaten like this again, Wu Sheng gritted his teeth, feeling the severe pain in his body, the biggest feeling was chilling!

"This Great Tang is the world of our Han family or the Hu people. The frontier generals are appointed and promoted, and the Hu people have priority. Our Beijing camp has conflicts with the Hu people, and His Majesty will only ask us for our crimes." Although Wu Sheng was seriously injured , but he was still full of energy and spoke very loudly. From his tone, one could hear how deep his resentment was.

Regarding Tang Xuanzong, this is not something that can be discussed casually, so Li Fei did not respond to Wu Sheng's words in the slightest.

But in his heart, Li Fei knew that it was all the sins committed by the former Prime Minister Li Linfu.In the beginning, Li Linfu thought that most of the former prime ministers were ministers of the court and central government who served as border military envoys and made military exploits. With the precedent of border generals becoming prime ministers, he was worried that someone would threaten his position as prime minister, so he advised Tang Xuanzong to say nonsense. The people are brave and good at fighting, so they should use Hu people to lead the army to suppress other Hu people on the border.

Since then, Hu people have given priority to the selection of generals along the border, and the appointment of Jiedu envoys has also given priority to Hu people. This has led to the rise of people such as An Lushan, and a large number of elite frontier troops are in the hands of Hu people.

It is clearly the world of the Han family, but almost all the most elite frontier troops are in the hands of the Hu people. The emperor favors the Hu people too much, resulting in the situation that the Han is not Han, and the Hu is not Hu. Because An Lushan and other Hu generals, the Hu people The status is even higher than that of the Han people themselves.

Wu Sheng's resentment towards the Hu people didn't come out overnight. A few years ago, he also defended the frontier and was fed up with being squeezed out by the Hu people's generals.This conflict was indeed provoked first by those barbarians in the frontier army. The soldiers under Wu Sheng were beaten. Wu Sheng just wanted to seek justice for the soldiers under him. Unfortunately, the justice was not obtained. Each of Gongdao's soldiers received thirty army sticks, and he himself received a hundred blows and lost his position. Wu Sheng was indignant at what happened to him, and even more at Tang Xuanzong's injustice.

After Wu Sheng vented a few words, Li Fei reminded him not to go on talking about these things, and if people listen to them, it will lead to more serious consequences.

"Joining the army, fighting on the frontier for several years, decapitating more than a hundred of the enemy's heads, and being a lieutenant of Zhaowu at the age of 30, not even a general, and now being dismissed from the military because of such things, what else do I have? Where can I go?" Wu Sheng gritted his teeth while enduring the pain in his body.

"Then from now on, how about you staying by my side? With me, Li Fei, drinking a sip of wine is absolutely indispensable to you!" Li Fei said.

"Master Wu Guogong brought me back from the gate of the prison for medical treatment, and he saved my life. My life, Wu Sheng, is worthless. As long as Lord Wu Guogong doesn't dislike it, it will be considered as compensation to Lord Wu Guogong!" Wu Sheng was very proud. road.This blow made him very disappointed with the imperial court. Many people in the Beijing camp admired Li Fei's reputation after taking office as Jing Zhaoyin. a way out.
