Unofficial History of the Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 38

The portrait of Shu Bao polluted and respected the King of Qin rose from the stronghold and returned to Chang'an.The army was stationed in Baling Prefecture, and the King of Qin led the generals back to the West Mansion.The next day, I met my father and danced. The emperor said: "My son conquered the east and the west, flattened the sea, and came back today. I am very relieved." The emperor pardoned my son for his crime of unfilial piety." The emperor said: "You have been imprisoned because of the king's affairs, and you don't want to put him in peace. What crime is there?" The king of Qin said: "My son and Wang Shichong rejected each other. They fight every day, and each other wins and loses. Suddenly meet When Yuyin came, I realized that Liu Wuzhou was rampantly invading the enemy. Every time he wanted to move his troops to the front, he was afraid that Shi Chong would take advantage of the situation and it would be difficult to return to the army. He was hesitating when Li Shiji arrived. The two accountants ordered Zheng Shanguo to lead [-] troops to prevent Shi Chong To enter the bandits, because Shichong was introduced to the original Wei generals Qin Shubao, Cheng Zhijie, Li Junshi, Tian Liuan, and Lu Deming, the teacher of the King of Han, came here together, and the Wuzhou Dynasty must be broken."

Because of the introduction of seeing the emperor.The emperor saw that the five men were majestic and high-spirited, and they were all capable of leading the army. He appointed Shubao as the commander of the horse army, Cheng Zhijie, Li Junshi, and Tian Liu'an as the commander of the army, and Lu Deming as the governor of the Qin government.After the five people thanked each other, the emperor said: "Now Liu Wuzhou is in trouble with the Turks and Wang Xingben. It is very sharp and hard to fight. Your brother Yuanji fled back to Chang'an, and the army and people in Guanzhong were afraid. It is better to abandon Taiyuan and Hedong and just guard the pass. West only.

"Qin Wang said: "Taiyuan is the foundation of the king's business and the foundation of the country;I would like to add tens of thousands of soldiers in Beijing, and I will capture Wu Zhou and restore the land of Fen and Jin. Please don't worry about it. The emperor said: "There was a general in Wuzhou, Yuchi Jingde, who was brave enough to take over a thousand miles of Tang in one month. It was like a broken bamboo."The border guards painted his image and offered it to me to show his might. "

So he ordered all the officials to hang the statue of respecting virtue in the hall.When all the generals saw this image, they were all terrified and terrified. Uncle Bao said: "Please write." The emperor said: "How about asking for a pen? Do you want to praise poems on it?" Shubao said: "Your servant It is useful." Then he raised his brush and looked at the mess on the painting.

The emperor said: "How can you pollute it?" Shu Bao said: "Your Majesty praises and respects virtue like a god, and no one can match it. From the perspective of my ministers, he is just a wild man, and I am not concerned about it. I am willing to capture this thief and repay him." Your Majesty." The emperor said: "You are Fan Kuai of the Han Dynasty, and I am also the tiger general." So he gave wine and flowers to honor his ambition.So he issued an edict to send [-] elite soldiers in Guanzhong to benefit the king of Qin and attack Wu Zhou.Li Shiji was ordered to be the military adviser, and Qin Qiong was the escort.

The king of Qin resigned from the emperor and left the court. The next day, he went to the teaching ground to dispatch troops and horses.The King of Qin Gu said to Shiji, "Now Liu Wuzhou sent Song Jingang and Yuchi Jingde to invade several counties in our country. The force is not trivial. What's your strategy?" In the quick battle, the world's troops can be divided into twelve armies, each army is led by a general, and a general is in charge. When collaborating with the enemy, each uses his life, supervises them to fight, and supervises them to farm at leisure. Teacher, let me not fight and Wu Zhou will be trapped." Qin Wang said: "This can only defeat the soldiers along the way, and there are two places of Turks and Wang Xingben. How can we fight against them?" Shiji said: "The Turks and our Tang Dynasty have already been defeated. Tong Hao wanted to accept bribes from Wu Zhou, so he had no choice but to pretend to follow him. I have already asked Guo Xiaoke to talk about his reconciliation and retreat the Hu soldiers. This road is not enough to be an enemy; The second time, one army went to raid the grain road, and two armies changed in and out. Keep it in order to form horns. When he is tired and has the intention of returning home, he will invite a large army to attack him, and he can be captured with one drum." Qin Wang said: "This is a wonderful theory." [So] from the world For the sake of achievement, set up twelve armies and manage the generals, all named after Xingxiu.Each army has a chief general and a deputy general, who urge the plowing to supervise the battle. If they are well trained, they will be invincible.

The name of the general manager of the Twelve-State Dao Star Army: the 1th Dao Can Banner Star Army, led by Qin Shubao; the second Chang'an Dao Gujing Star Army, led by Cheng Zhijie; the third Fuzhou Daoxuan Ge Star Army, The general manager is led by Hou Junji; the fourth Lizhou Daojingquan Star Army is led by Ma Sanbao; the fifth Tongzhou Dao Yulin Star Army is led by Li Jing; the sixth Huazhou Road Wandering Star Army is led by Li Jing. Liu Zhengdao led it; the seventh Zhewei Star Army of Ningzhou Road was led by Duan Zhixuan; the eighth Qizhou Dao Ping Dao Star Army was led by Li Junshi; The tenth Xilin Daoyuan Youxing Army is led by Tao Wuqin; the No. 11 Weizhou Dao Tianji Star Army is led by Yin Kaishan; the No. 12 Yizhou Daotian Festival Star Army is led by Tian Liuan.

On that day, the king of Qin appointed Shiji as a military adviser, granted him the title of command, and put on the seal of a general. He supervised all the troops and dispatched troops from all walks of life to accompany the king to escort the expedition.If you see heroes and fierce generals, they are better than heavenly soldiers.There will be Sun and Wu's strategies, and there will be millions of troops in the battle.At that time, grain reserves were sufficient, and military affairs were cultivated in a salty manner. In summer and April, Bingyin was selected to go out to the army at sunrise to plan Wu Zhou.It is unknown how the outcome will be.

General comment: Shu Bao and other five people are all talented in command, Sun and Wu Zhilue also, it is not difficult to capture Wu Zhou and return to Fen Jin.The image of respecting morality in Bingzhou is seen by everyone, but Du Shubao smears it with a stroke of a pen, with great ambition, who is more in his eyes?The world has been divided into twelve armies, and they plow and fight with each other. With the old masters, will Wu Zhou be able to penetrate into our territory?
