Unofficial History of the Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 44

Shiji outwitted Baibiguan, but said that Jingde fought with Tang soldiers all day long and had no rest, and came to see King Kong at night, King Kong gave orders to arrest him.Jingde called him innocent, King Kong was furious, and said: "I knew your rebellion two days ago, how dare you deceive me?" Capture the generals, but never come back in vain. Today, I have fought against Shubao with fraudulent words, and there is no winner or loser, and there is absolutely no movement. Thinking that you are connected with the outside, if you don't kill you, you will be in trouble later.

"Drink the knife and axe, push out the gate and kill him quickly. The generals said: "Jingde has never met an opponent. Today, facing Shubao, he is really the enemy of ten thousand people. Therefore, it is difficult to win. It is not Jingde showing off his military.What's more, King Liu's confidants and soldiers, if this person beheaded, I'm afraid King Liu will not look good.Thousands of gold are easy to get, but a general is hard to find. I hope the marshal will keep it for use. "Everyone begged again and again before they could be spared.

But it is said that the vajra is strong, drinking all day long without getting drunk, because he is jealous of respecting virtue, he pretended to be drunk that night, went to bed on the rattan bed, and only ordered respecting virtue to guard him, standing outside the tent.It has reached the left side of the second watch, and the order is not allowed, and I still stand by myself, daring not to return.It turned out that Jingde had no rest for a day and a night because of the battle with Shubao. He was exhausted and resentful. Treat me like nothing? I swear to kill this thief, so as to show my will." He was secretly complaining, when suddenly he heard the sound of King Kong tossing and turning, Jingde rushed forward to stand by him.King Kong is still hazy and dare not be alarmed.

Another hour later, King Kong woke up, opened his eyes, saw Jingde standing still, King Kong yelled sharply: "The night is quieter, Jingde returns to the account, and you will fight tomorrow. If you don't capture the redemption, you will be killed." First." Jingde retreated resignedly.

The next day, Jingde had enough to eat, and the belt was finished. He went out to set up the formation, raised his whip and rode his horse in front of the formation, shouting: "General Tang, come out quickly!" The bravery of Lu Bu in the past.The words continued, knowing the rhythm, the horse straightened out with the moon axe, and fought with Jingde in ten matches.Zhijie stood up to the moon and struck with the axe, Jingde flashed past, Wang Zhijie struck with a whip, hit the back of the horse, reined in the pain and walked away.Jingde chased after him, bumping into Shubao, he raised his gun and galloped forward to fight.When Jingde and his wife were fighting fiercely, they only heard the sound of gongs on Baibi City. Jingde hurriedly led his troops back to the pass, and asked the marshal, "The villain is fighting with Shubao. Why did you call for gold?" King Kong said: "The soldiers reported that Li Shiji led the troops to copy out of Taiyuan from a small path, fearing that Liu Wang would lose his roots, and if he wants to go to protect him, I will report to you." Jingde said: "If you don't I have already captured this man's ear to withdraw the army." King Kong said: "This man is very brave, you should take it easy. I ordered Xun Xiang and Wanyan Baida to guard the pass. You are the vanguard, and you need to lead the army to go out and refuse. Stay with the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, cut off their reinforcements, and nothing will happen." King Kong had given his orders, and led 3000 troops straight to Taiyuan to escort them.

But he said that Jingde took the order, and the three generals, Xunxiang and Wanyan Baida, trained their troops every day to guard Baibi Pass.While discussing the military affairs, Malai reported suddenly: Marshal King Kong left the customs for several days, but was copied out by Tang soldiers on the way, and was defeated several times. Hold on, I'm afraid something might go wrong.All the generals were shocked when they heard the words, and they searched for their relatives and said: "The place where the throat is really closed, the plan is also important, and respect for virtue cannot be done." Do you want to save him?" Wanyan Baida said: "If respect for morality is to go, we must be here. The soldiers and horses in our north are also strong, and one is worth ten, which is enough to keep Baibi safe. Please respect virtue and go quickly. It is urgent to save the marshal.

"

So Jingde led a team of men and horses, each with a bow and arrow, stepped on his horse with a sword, bid farewell to the two generals, left Baibi Pass, and hurried forward on the main road.After walking for a distance, I saw a few small troops guarding the pass, bloody and galloping towards them, calling each other: "We have all been killed, the Tang general has already captured Baibi Pass." Jingde asked in a panic. Therefore, the soldier replied: "This is determined by the world's achievements. Guo Xiaoke was sent to the west to borrow troops from the Turks. He ordered Talihu to lead his men and horses to pretend to be northern soldiers. Wanyan Baida came to guard the pass. Now Talihu chased and killed Liu Bing. , seized the Baibi Pass, set up the banner of the Tang Dynasty, and fled for his life alone in search of the prime minister."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly saw that Cheng Zhijie led his troops to fight Jingde in front of the gate, but he couldn't make it to Sanhe, Zhijie was defeated and left, and Jingde chased him.Zhijie walked for several miles, and led Jingde into Taolin Valley, where Zhijie suddenly disappeared.Jingde was afraid that there would be soldiers in ambush, so he reined in his horse and looked around, but there was no movement.Riding the horse and driving again, seeing the lush trees in front of him, he thought in his heart: If there are soldiers breaking through the valley, there is nothing like it.Reining in the horse in a hurry and not chasing, returning to the mouth of the valley, suddenly the golden drums sounded, guns and knives clustered, and the rear army shouted.Seeing eight generals lined up in front of Taniguchi, the horse army's infantry spread across the mountains and plains, divided into eight teams, arranged in formation, and the iron wall was similar.Looking at a military horse in Jingde from a distance, embroidered flags are waving, and they are the first to charge.Feng Rong from Duan Zhixian's department rode out to meet Jingde with a spear in hand, and with a whip, Feng Rong was chopped off by the horse.The soldiers of the eight teams shouted together, only Shubao's army did not move.In front, Cheng Zhijie, Ma Sanbao, and Tian Liu'an came.

Behind them are Xiang Shanzhi, Samurai Yu, Li Junshi, and Tao Wuqin all welcoming and respecting virtue.Jingde opened his eyes and yelled loudly, his voice was like a huge thunder, he raised his whip and fought against several generals, breaking through the encirclement.The horses are in front of the horses and the horses are behind, and the infantry are all respectful.Jingde pressed the steel whip on the horse, and slashed at the infantry with the Qinghong sword. The armor was leveled with his hands, and the blood flowed like a spring, staining the armor.Jingde pointed east to attack west, rushed south to kill north, and fought with these seven generals as if there was nothing.Turning Qin Qiong out of the side, Pegasus yelled: "Sinister dog, don't leave! Shubao is here!" Jingde saw him, abandoned the seven generals, and fought against Shubao.Shubao is full of supernatural power, fighting fiercely and respecting virtue.The seven generals cheered together, and Shubao got excited and shouted.When the seven generals saw that Shubao was fighting against Jingde, they all tied their positions, and immediately saw that the two generals had fought to a hundred matches, regardless of the outcome.

But it is said that the king of Qin was on the high slope, and when he saw the place where Jingde went, he was so powerful that he was so envious that he quickly sent an order to the eight generals: "If Jingde is everywhere, don't stop him, but let go all the way and let him come out of his own way." . " So Jingde got out of the Tang formation, looked forward and galloped away.Not far away, a small soldier came to report: "There is a group of banners ahead, and the drums are beating. I heard the sound of killing. I haven't judged why the soldiers are against the enemy." Hearing this, Jingde was shocked. Thinking: "At present, the enemy soldiers on the road ahead have been blocked, and the cypress wall behind has been lost. There is nowhere to go in and nowhere to defend. I want to go to Taiyuan, but I am afraid that King Kong will see him. I am in a mess. What can I do? It is like a sheep touching Fan, in a dilemma." Although Jingde had a hard-hearted heart at this time, at this moment of desperation, he burst into tears unknowingly.

After pondering for a long time, I thought deeply in my heart, then sighed again and said: "In the past, Wang Yang was a filial son, and Wang Zun was a loyal minister. The two people will not lose their reputation in later generations. Although I am going through fire and water, I will die. How can he stand in the world? I should go straight to find out what is true." Then he rode his horse forward.After walking for another twenty miles, I turned around the slope, and saw blood flowing all over the ground, and corpses piled up like a mountain, in seven horizontal and eight vertical directions.Someone shouted: "Jingde, save me!" Jingde looked at him closely, and it was Song Jingang, like a man of blood, lying down among the dead.Jingde asked anxiously, "Why is the marshal like this?" King Kong said, "I left the customs and said goodbye to you. I really wanted to go to Taiyuan to protect you. I didn't want the Tang people to use tricks to ambush their troops here. Thousands of my troops were killed. Most of the remaining troops fled. I walked across the hillside alone, was stabbed in the back by a general, and fell off the horse. The horse was taken away and I couldn't struggle.

The Tang people only said that I was dead, so they withdrew their troops and went back. " Jingde then got off his horse, put him on the Vajra, and ordered the soldiers to take off all their clothes and armor, so that they could serve him well, and go to report first. Jingde led the army and followed him, and went straight to Taiyuan to see Wu Zhou. Let's see how Wu Zhou will deal with it?
General comment: Jingde fought with Tang soldiers, but he was facing Shubao, so the fight went to hundreds of matches, and it was hard to tell the winner. The King of Qin also compared the former Lv Bu with the courage of Jingde.

Baiguan's morals are very strict, and it seems that he is not easy to move. There is no trick for the people of Tang Dynasty.God!Stealing is called the wisdom of non-world achievements, and it cannot be obtained.
