Chapter 651: Oath (2)


Zhao Ziliang returned home tired.

When Chen Qingying and Nie Sanniang saw this, they quickly stepped forward to massage him and asked, "Husband, I heard that something happened in the court."

Zhao Ziliang sat on the chair and let the two ladies beat their shoulders and back.

He closed his eyes and said, "Well, Fan Yang Jiedushi, Lulong Jiedushi, and Hedong Jiedushi An Lushan rebelled.

The imperial court issued an imperial decree asking me to lead the army.

Return to Chang'an to put down the rebellion" Chen Qingying asked: "How long has this been going on?"

"The imperial edict arrived more than a month ago."

Chen Qingying blamed: "Why did you tell us now?"

Zhao Ziliang smiled and patted the hands of the two ladies: "I don't tell you because I don't want you to worry.

You haven't had a stable life since you married me.

You are always on tenterhooks.

I'm sorry for you.

How can I let you?"

Worried about me” Nie Sanniang said with a straight face: "Huh, if you don't tell us, we will be even more worried if we find out."

After a long silence, Nie Sanniang asked: "When are you leaving?"

Zhao Ziliang said: "It will take at least about a month to assemble troops and prepare food, grass and baggage.

It is initially scheduled for today next month.

Don't worry, I will arrange the military and political affairs here.

The internal affairs of Beiting have been completely stabilized.

Even if some clowns come out to make trouble, they can't make a big splash.

The biggest external threat, the Dashi Kingdom, is currently at odds with the troops of the Fu Fu Kingdom in the east.

They are too busy to take care of themselves and have no energy to deal with us.

For at least ten years, there will be no internal or external troubles in Beiting. this time I plan to lead 30,000 elite troops and 10,000 tribal troops to the Central Plains to suppress the rebellion.

Although the rebels in Anlu Mountain are also elite troops, they are still inferior to our army.

No matter the quality of the soldiers, horses, ordnance and equipment, they cannot match When compared with our army, they only The reason why he was able to reach the hinterland of the Central Plains so quickly was because the hinterland of the Central Plains had not seen war for many years and the defenders had neglected training.

In addition, the land in Hebei and Hedong was originally under his jurisdiction, so his progress was so fast, just like Anlu Mountain.

Don’t even look at it in my eyes.”

"Hmph, just brag.

I heard that An Lushan has 150,000 elite soldiers, and is known as 200,000.

In addition, he swept through Hebei and Henan and gathered many surrendered troops and generals.

I'm afraid the current strength of the troops is not less than three or four.

There are 100,000 people, what can you do with 30,000 or 40,000 people?"

Nie Sanniang curled her lips in disdain after speaking.

Zhao Ziliang pointed at Nie Sanniang and shook his head: "Hey, you're a bitch, what do you know?

Do you know military affairs?

The imperial court has more than just my troops, there are also troops from Hexi, Longyou, Shuofang, etc.

Although An Lushan is a man There are many forces, but if he only defends Hebei, he will only be attacked from the west and south.

Now that he occupies Hebei and Henan, and is attacked on three sides, you think his life will be easy."

At this point, Zhao Ziliang waved his hand: "Forget it, I tell you, a woman, what to do, just stay at home with peace of mind, and I will come back when I successfully suppress the rebellion."

Chen Qingying said: "We are not worried that you will not be able to defeat An Lushan.

We are worried that you will be suspected by the court and framed by those treacherous ministers.

Over the years, so many famous ministers in the court have been murdered.

We are worried.

You have followed in their footsteps.”

When Zhao Ziliang heard this, his face turned cold, "Don't worry, I, Zhao Ziliang, will never be manipulated by others again.

If someone wants to deal with me, it depends on whether he has the right attitude."

The couple were talking when two tall and strong teenagers strode in wearing armor.

They turned out to be brothers Zhao Lei and Zhao Ting.

"Father" the two brothers bowed respectfully.

Zhao Ziliang frowned and said: "You are not in the military camp, why did you come back suddenly?"

Zhao Lei said: "We heard that our father was going to lead troops to the capital to quell the rebellion, so we asked for leave from our superiors and wanted to ask our father to take us with him."

Zhao Ziliang waved his hands and said: "No, you older kids still want to go into battle to kill the enemy.

I'll wait until you grow up."

Zhao Lei said anxiously: "Father, we have grown up, and now there are several people in the army who are our brothers' opponents.

Let them try."

Zhao Ziliang snorted coldly and said: "Why do you think you are invincible?

What can you do if you can fight?

You can defeat a hundred people, kill a thousand people, and defeat ten thousand generals with their personal force in a march."

It can only be used as an assistant.

If you want to become the enemy of ten thousand, one hundred thousand or even one million enemies, you need to Do you understand with your brain?

The more you go, the less I can let you go.

You have been too impatient since you were a child.

You have never calmed down and used your brain to think about problems.

You don’t have to go this time.

Zhao Ting is coming with me.

You stay and study more. , learn the skills of marching and fighting from other generals, and by the way, accompany your aunt and second mother."

Zhao Lei was dissatisfied and said: "Why can my second brother go to fight with you, but why can't I go?"

Zhao Ziliang stood up and walked to Zhao Lei and patted him on the shoulder: "Didn't I just say that you have mosquitoes in your ears?

Besides, if you all go with me, what will happen if there is no man in the family?

You just said that you have already When you grow up, should you take on the responsibilities that a man should have as a father?

You have to lead the army to suppress the rebellion, and I have to leave the house to you to take care of it.

Do you understand what it means to be a father?"

After hearing these words, Zhao Lei's bad temper quickly disappeared.

He nodded and said, "Yes, I understand, father."

Zhao Ziliang patted him on the shoulder again and said: "Well, Zhao Hu will stay and handle Beiting's military affairs.

If there is anything you can't solve, go to him.

Although you are cousins, you are no different from brothers.

I and I Your uncle only has two brothers, and our tribe is sparsely populated.

You brothers must be friendly, united, and work together.

Do you understand?"

"Yes, father" Zhao Ziliang said to Zhao Ting who was standing next to him: "Come to my uncle's house with me.

We will return to the Central Plains in a while.

Let's go to our uncle's house to sit down and say goodbye."

Zhao Ting agreed: "Promise" The father and son rode horses and some personal guards to Zhao Shan's house.

Zhao Hu rushed back from the Moxi Army today to discuss matters, and is now at home in the city.

Zhao Shan and his son heard about the arrival of Zhao Ziliang and his son, and hurriedly went to the door to greet them.

Although the two were brothers, Zhao Ziliang was a high official in the imperial court after all.

The social status and identity of the two parties were very different.

According to the ancient thinking of Zhao Shan, of course they did not dare to neglect them. .

"Oh, the second and third sons are here.

I haven't seen you two brothers for a long time.

Look, you have grown taller and stronger again.

You are both stronger than your eldest brother."

Zhao Shan was very happy to see the two brothers Zhao Lei and Zhao Ting.

He treats these two brothers better than his own son Zhao Hu.

Zhao Lei and Zhao Hu bowed to Zhao Shan and said, "Meet the uncle."

Zhao Shan patted the two brothers' shoulders repeatedly and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, come to uncle's place and treat it like your own home.

Don't be restrained."

Zhao Hu also bowed to Zhao Ziliang: "I have met my second uncle."

"Yes."

Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "Boss, you take the second and third sons to have some fun.

We will go on an expedition in a while.

This time I made a special trip to sit here and talk to my elder brother and sister-in-law.

I don't know how long it will be before I come back next time." .

Zhao Hu cupped his hands and agreed: "Okay."

After saying that, he said to the two brothers Zhao Lei and Zhao Ting: "Second and third brother, follow me.

I will see how your martial arts are going."

The two brothers also liked to compete with Zhao Hu.

After all, Zhao Hu had fought many battles and killed many people over the years.

His experience in marching combat and killing enemies on the battlefield was not comparable to that of ordinary people.

The two brothers happily agreed: "No. " Zhao Shan also immediately ordered his servants: "Hurry and prepare the banquet, and send another person to the second master's house to invite the two ladies.

Today our family will have a reunion dinner."

The servants immediately began to get busy, and Zhao Hu's house soon became very lively.

This kind of situation only occurs during the New Year and holidays.

Zhao Hu's son Zhao Bei was named by Zhao Ziliang.

This little guy was already five or six years old.

He was led by his brother Shu Luoyan and came over to greet him.

Zhao Ziliang asked with a smile: "What is your name?"

"Zhao Bei" "Then do you know me?"

"I know you are the second grandfather" "Okay, okay," Zhao Ziliang was very happy.

He picked him up and put him on his lap to tease him.

The family talked happily.

During dinner, all the men, women and children of the family were at the table.

Today was an unusual day.

Zhao Ziliang specially allowed two brothers, Zhao Lei and Zhao Ting, to have some wine too.

The two brothers and the eldest brother, Zhao Hu, had a great time drinking.

Zhao Shan and Zhao Ziliang clinked a glass and took a sip of wine and sighed: "I think our Zhao family was originally just a farmer and a hunter.

If it weren't for the second brother who sacrificed his life and property to become famous and rich, and with the support of the court and the emperor, Well, our Zhao family doesn't have a second brother today.

The emperor and the royal family are very kind to our Zhao family.

Now that the emperor and the imperial court are in trouble, we should go to protect him.

There are no eyesight for swords and guns in the battlefield, and there are many dangers.

Why not let Zhao Hu follow you, so that you two uncles and nephews can take care of you.

As the saying goes, brothers fight, and father and son are soldiers in battle.

Brother, I don’t have this ability.

But Huzi is different.

He was trained by you.

Although you are uncle and nephew, you are actually father and son.

In this world, people's hearts are getting worse and worse.

At critical moments, father, son and brothers can still be relied upon."

Zhao Ziliang nodded and acknowledged what his brother said, and said: "Originally, I wanted Huzi to go with me, but I still don't trust this place.

It took me many years of hard work to manage the situation here in Beiting.

I don't want to be here."

I won’t hide anything that happened here after I led the troops and left.

In order to run Beiting, I used some tricks.

Many people who opposed me back then were We were liquidated, but there were still some people because the circumstances were relatively minor, so I didn’t investigate further.

But there was no guarantee that these people wouldn’t harbor resentment in their hearts.

I left Huzi here to frighten all parties, and told everyone that I, Zhao Ziliang, was not here.

Beiting, but the control of Beiting will not be relaxed.

Some people want to jump out and cause trouble, so we have to see if they have the ability and courage."

Zhao Shan shook his head, "Hey, even a farmer like me doesn't understand the affairs of the government."

Zhao Ziliang said to Zhao Hu again: "No matter what happens, everything can be lost, but military power cannot be lost.

Whoever wants to seize military power is your enemy.

Local places can be in chaos, and the government can be in chaos, but the army cannot be in chaos.

The generals who stay in various places are basically There are all the old people who are with me Brother, you can trust them.

Once something happens, they will stand up and support you.

You must not be soft when it's time to take action.

This time I will take Ting'er, Lei'er will stay to help you, and you two brothers will look after the house.

My aunt and brothers and sisters are relying on you.”

Zhao Hu immediately said: "Second uncle, don't worry, even if something happens to me, I will never let anything happen to my two aunts and younger brothers and sisters."
