"The emperor's great-grandson, I shouldn't call him a county official, I always forgot that he really became the emperor."
When resting in Maoling County, Yang Yun said to Ren Hong.At the end of December, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, which rushed back to Chang'an to report the merits of the two armies of Pu and Qiang, had entered Sanfu, and they traveled more than 8,000 miles from Chang'an to Atahaifan, which can really be described as "8,000 miles of clouds and moons".Closer and closer to Chang'an, the soldiers now know that the Han has changed the position of the Son of Heaven, and they are a little worried, afraid that because of the change in the imperial situation, the merits made in the Western Regions will be discounted.But after someone whispered to them that the new emperor had reconciled with the Marquis of Xi'an and Yang Jun and Sima, that worry was gone, and the atmosphere became cheerful again.Yang Dazui said to Ren Hong: "The Marquis of Xi'an and the new emperor are good, but I am not, although he has never said it explicitly, but when the Hou family in Xi'an gets together to drink, he doesn't seem to like me very much." ”"Yang Ziyou, you're laughing."
Ren Hong laughed when he heard this, and pointed to the left and right: "Not only the new emperor, from Chang'an City to the army, may you find five people who like you?"
”Yang Yun was not ashamed but proud, and said with an ambiguous smile: "Isn't Xi'an Hou quite happy?"
”"I only like that you are angry at Xin Wuxian, as for other times" After entering the plug, Xin Wuxian has been controlled by Zhao Guanghan, using the crime of beating Yang Yun for merit, Yang Yun's bitter plan has worked, but it has hidden the matter of his father taking the merit of his son.In this way, Xin Qingji doesn't have to be too embarrassed, it's not good for him to spread the matter, the Han Dynasty's admiration of filial piety has reached the level of paranoia, if it weren't for Zhao Guanghan's kind of followers who follow the law, and send another one to "Spring and Autumn Prison", maybe they will each hit fifty boards.And since he was knocked out of a tooth, Yang Yun seems to be more able to speak, Ren Hong only suggested that he have a big gold tooth, and he is too lazy to talk to Yang Yun.What Ren Hong thought in his heart was that Yaoguang should have learned the news of the assassination and death of his father, Wusun Kunmi, by now, right?
I don't know if she mourned in the Han way, or according to the Wusun tradition.According to the guidance of the messenger sent by Chang'an, everyone approached the Xiliu camp in Weibei, where a large army had been stationed for the winter, but it was the Bingzhou cavalry under the Huya general Tian Shun.Hearing that the Marquis of Xi'an had returned, the soldiers were all watching in the camp, talking to each other about their great achievements, and looking at the Marquis of Xi'an, who had traveled thousands of miles but had high morale, their eyes were full of envy.It's all to blame for them following the wrong general.Among them, there is also an acquaintance, Zhang Chang, who is a military Sima in Tian Shun's army.I haven't seen each other for nearly half a year, and the old friends have a lot to say when they meet, and Zhang Changdai Huya Army came out to greet him: "Although the Marquis of Xi'an has not returned, the messenger who arrived in Chang'an in advance has already spread the news of your great victory to Sanfu. ”"The two armies of Pu and Qiang crossbow fought a great victory unseen in 30 years.And the Marquis of Xi'an destroyed the mud, won more than 19,000 captives of Wusun and the Huns, beheaded the head of the king of the right valley, His Majesty's three dukes and nine qing, and the people of Chang'an 160 Lu, all looked forward to the arrival of the Marquis of Xi'an. ”Yang Yun was concerned about the situation of the other three armies, and pulled Zhang Chang to ask carefully, Zhang Chang only smiled bitterly: "Anyway, we must be at the bottom of the five armies."
Zhang Chang talked about his experience, it is really difficult to say."
We gathered in Wuyuan County with General Huya and the Bingzhou army, and there was an accident before we got out of the fortress, because of the heavy rain in Shangjun and Xihe, it was difficult to transfer the baggage, and the carriages and horses were slightly insufficient."
General Huya went out of the fortress for more than 800 miles, but Hu Lu knew in advance that the Han army was marching north, and they all fled far away.After walking for more than 800 miles, it was only in Danyu Wushui that a small tribe was caught, and General Huya ordered that all men and women and children should be killed, beheading and capturing more than 1,900 people, and capturing more than 70,000 horses, cattle and sheep.The various units of the army proposed to continue to the north to get through the curtain, but General Huya thought that the food was exhausted and it was not suitable to travel far, that is, the troops were stopped and the troops were returned to Wuyuan. ”Zhang Chang sighed in a word: "Then he was ordered by the imperial court to go to Wuyuan, received the military talisman of General Huya, and convicted him of not reaching the deadline, cowardly and lingering, fraudulently increasing the capture, and the subordinate committed suicide."
It is said that on his deathbed, he scolded Dasi Nong and cursed him for not dying well. ”The Lord will be killed, and the merit is not worth it, and after this incident, all the troops of the Huya Army will burn high incense without punishment, where do they dare to expect a reward.And the servant Du Yannian temporarily controlled the power of the Huya Army, and waited until General Qilian returned to the south before taking them back to Guanzhong."
Insufficient military rations before leaving the fortress?"
Ren Hong and Yang Yun both sensed that something was wrong, although the two armies of Pu and Qiang Crossbow also resolutely marched westward when their baggage and grain were almost cut off, but Wuyuan was not Dunhuang, and it stands to reason that with Tian Yannian's wrist, there will be such mistakes and omissions.Suppressing his doubts, Ren Hong asked again: "What about General Qilian's capture?"
”Zhang Chang smiled: "I also heard from others, General Qilian passed through the surrendered city, went out of the fortress for 1,600 miles, went to Jizhi Mountain, beheaded and captured 19 levels, and obtained more than 100 cattle, horses and sheep. ”"What?
Level 19?
Naigong alone has more than one gain. ”Zhao Han'er and Xin Qingji, who were sitting in the same tent, were stunned, and Lao Han was even more stunned.Obediently, nineteenth-level beheading, under Han Dangdang and Zhao Han'er, there are really many warriors, and the number of individual beheadings far exceeds this, as for Tianshui Qu's Gan Yanshou, it has been divided into nearly 100 levels.This is the capture of General Qi Lian, who is the main force of the Fifth Army and has more than 40,000 cavalry?
Is he worse than Tian Shun?"
Don't laugh."
Ren Hong held back a smile and scolded his subordinates: "It must be the Huns who heard the news and left, when General Zhao Ponu went out of the fortress for 2,000 miles, he didn't see anyone and met it." ”Tian Guangming probably didn't find anything, otherwise he wouldn't have been so miserable if he learned from Tian Shun to kill the old and young women and children.It is conceivable that if this answer sheet is handed in, I am afraid that it will make the general Huo Guang thunderous, and if it is not, it will blame Tian Guangming and let him follow in Tian Shun's footsteps.However, Tian Guangming was lucky, when he arrived at Jizhi Mountain, he detected that there were Hun captives in front of him, and when he was still hesitating to fight, he received an urgent report from Chang'an, ordering him to return to the division.Presumably it is related to the abolition of the emperor, Huo Guang is also worried about the changes in the world, and General Qi Lian pushed the boat division south, although it is useless, but with an excuse, presumably the general will be lenient and not guilty.At present, the Qilian Army is stationed south of Weishui, between the Huya Army and Chang'an."
How about General Duliao?"
Ren Hong asked about the person who always didn't deal with him and Fu Jiezi, after all, Fan Mingyou always boasted that he was the number one brave general in the Han Dynasty on weekdays."
I heard that he traveled more than 2,100 miles, crossed Puli and waited for water, beheaded and captured more than 700 captives, and captured more than 10,000 horses, cattle and sheep."
Seven hundred is okay, right?
After all, Fan Mingyou has completed the mileage required by Huo Guang, and it is also bad luck not to meet the Huns, because he lacks a little bit of the sixth virtue!
Han Dangdang smiled again: "It seems that General Duliao is nothing more than that, and there are more than one tun under my command." ”Yang Yun said after calculating: "The gains of the three generals Qilian, Huya, and Duliao, combined, are less than a fraction of Xiliang's cavalry. ”Even they casually brought out a song, and the score exceeded the sum of the three generals.Yang Yun smacked his lips: "I finally understand now, why on the way back to the east, I can meet the messengers sent by Chang'an almost every day to inquire about the news of the two armies." ”Yes, before the results of the two armies of Pu and Qiang Crossbow were returned, the face of the great general Huo Guang must have been extremely ugly, this battle was huge, and the savings of the Xiaozhao Dynasty for thirteen years were almost exhausted, but the result was a blank slate.The general is afraid that he will become the target of public criticism, not to mention, he also played a scrap on the way.As a result, the Xiongnu Shan Yuting and the left were almost unscathed, and fortunately, the two armies in the west fought a beautiful victory and almost crushed the right.Ren Hong can already imagine that the court will hold them up to the sky and publicize them in a big way, two beauties cover three ugliness.Sure enough, Zhang Chang said: "I heard that on the New Year's Day, there will be a ceremony outside the city for the two armies of Pu and Qiangkushi." ”The army defeated the enemy, and there was a division to win in the mountains and rivers and ancestral temples.Once the army has returned, it is a rule handed down in the pre-Qin period, and only the army that has won a great victory is eligible to enjoy the honor.The reason why it was chosen on the New Year's Day is because at that time, the princes and vassals will send people to participate in the court meeting, after all, the new emperor ascended the throne, and he always had to be familiar, and the general could take the opportunity to publicize the victory of the two armies and tell the people of the world that this battle was not fought in vain.Zhao Chongguo and most people can't come back, and he doesn't like to be famous, but Han Zeng, who was ordered to hand over the military power to Zhao Chongguo, is just a few days behind Ren Hong, and he should be able to catch up with this grand occasion.And Ren Hong and them will enter Chang'an first and send the head of the Xianxian Shan of the Right Valley Liwang into the Weiyang Palace.After they rested overnight in the Xiliu camp, they were ready to set off the next day, but Yang Yun, who had talked a lot along the way, was silent, lowered his head and was stunned, because Zhang Chang also told him one thing last night: "Prime Minister Ling Zun Yang died of illness a few days ago!"
”I don't know if he was frightened by the abolition, or because he didn't use his head to block the flying jade seal and felt guilty, Yang Chang died in late December, and now Cai Yi is the prime minister, and Tian Guangming is the imperial doctor.The rest of the people don't have Yang Yun's sorrow, and what greets them is glory and dreams.When Ren Hong led the army across the Benmen Bridge, behind him was the Huya Army and the state rode out to see the excitement, and in front of him was the Qilian Army of more than 40,000 horses.When Xiliang Tieqi was wearing the freshly washed armor last night, raising the flag that was dilapidated but still waving in the wind, Ren Hong stepped on the wooden plank of the Benmen Bridge, and suddenly heard a shout from behind.The environment was noisy, muffled by footsteps and the sound of water, and some could not be heard clearly, but soon, more and more people shouted, and even on the south bank of Weishui, the soldiers and soldiers of the Qilian Army also held the spears in their hands, knocked on the ground, and spontaneously responded.It is an ancient name, since the time of Emperor Xiaowu, in the conquest of the Xiongnu armies, the legend of the praise and admiration between generations of big-headed soldiers, and the military can also get the crown of the crown!
Ren Hong finally heard it clearly, the sound rose and fell on both sides of the Weishui, getting louder and louder, and the ground seemed to be trembling by the long pole of the spear.Even before the alarm of Maoling, the young man who was still riding a dragon horse with a ring sword in his hand and trampling on the head of the Huns.Regardless of life or death, Huo Hussar, who will always guard the north for the Han Dynasty, turned his face slightly, turned his face sideways, and wanted to see who it was that could get his former glory?
He saw a young man who was surprised on the Benmen Bridge, a few years ago, this young man seemed to have come to worship and sacrifice himself, chattering, not like a person who did great things.This young general is probably the first time to experience this kind of battle, and he was choked for a while, and he couldn't hold back his tears, so he could only bow his head and tidy up his clothes to cover up.This is the recognition from the Han soldiers, and it is the glory of surpassing the Marquis of Wanhu and the suburbs of Jiuqing.The voice has resounded on both sides of Weishui, and has reached the ears of Liu Ai, who is standing on the north gate of Weiyang and often looking west in anticipation: "Champion!
”"Champion!"
PS: See you tomorrow.
