Chapter 101: Ma Weiyi

Ma Weiyi is the famous Ma Wei Po in later generations, named after the famous general Ma Wei of the Jin Dynasty who built a city here, but it was not Ma Wei himself who made Ma Weipo famous, but Yang Yuhuan, the favorite concubine of the Tang Emperor Li Longji.

According to historical records, after the Anshi Rebellion, the Anshi rebels quickly broke through the dangerous Tongguan Pass and approached the capital Chang'an, and the panicked Li Longji hurriedly fled to Yizhou with Yang Yuhuan, and arrived at Maweipo a day later.

The resentful Yulin army killed the traitor Yang Guozhong, and asked Li Longji to execute Yang Yuhuan, under the pressure of current affairs, Li Longji had to endure the pain and let Yang Yuhuan hang himself.

Li An escorted King Guichang and his entourage to Ma Weiyi at noon, where they stopped for a while to allow the soldiers to rest for a while.

"Kunxiong, pass the order, the whole army will rest, and the baggage battalion will immediately bury the pot and cook."

Ang Lee jumped off his horse and gave the order.

"Yes, big brother."

Li An stepped up a small hill, looked at the ruins in the distance, and sighed in his heart, where is the Ma Wei City built by Ma Wei, a famous general of the Jin Dynasty, after being abandoned for hundreds of years, there are now traces of these ruins.

Looking back at Ma Weiyi under the hillside, Li Anxin sighed again, Ma Weiyi is just a small official post of the Tang Empire, but if everything goes according to the trajectory of history, more than ten years later, the scene of Yang Guifei being hanged will be staged here, and this is naturally what Li An does not want to see.

came to Datang unexpectedly from later generations, is it just to be a passerby? Since I, Ang Li, have come to Datang, I have to do my best to make up for the regrets of this period.

The occurrence of the Anshi Rebellion caused extremely serious damage to the Tang Empire, which directly led to the decline of the Tang Empire, which became a regrettable event for a thousand years.

Li An will do his best to prevent the occurrence of the Anshi Rebellion, and the premise of completing this wish is to strengthen himself as soon as possible, only when he is strong, can he have the ability to prevent the occurrence of this major historical event, and at present, what he can do is to do his best to complete the task assigned by Li Longji, so as to gain Li Longji's appreciation and prepare for the improvement of his status.

"It's okay, this is Ma Weiyi's general."

Li Fei Shouyu took a middle-aged Langjun up the hill.

"I've seen Captain Li."

"No need to be polite, do you have something to do with me?"

Ang Lee asked casually.

The post general frowned and said: "Captain Li, yesterday evening, a few groups of hunters passed by the post station one after another, although they are dressed as hunters, but I always feel that they are not so simple, so I have come to inform Captain Li and let Captain Li have a guard. ”

"A few groups of Orions, how many people are there, and what do you think they are?"

The general replied: "There are three groups of people, there are fifty people in total, this place is remote, this is very abnormal, and each of them is powerful, which makes me feel a sense of déjà vu." ”

"Déjà vu? What do you mean? ”

Li An frowned and stared at the general.

"Captain Li, I won't tell you anything, I served in the army in Longyou ten years ago, and fought a few battles with the Tubo barbarians, and I felt the shadow of the Tubo people in these hunters."

"What, Tibetans, can you be sure."

"Captain Li, the humiliation is just a hunch, not a certainty."

Li Fei Shouyu looked at Li An and said softly: "It's okay, the post general knows that our mission is important and we can't make the slightest mistake, so I can't wait to inform us of this matter. ”

Li An nodded approvingly and patted the general's shoulder: "Thank you, by the way, what is the terrain to the west here, there are steep places." ”

The post general thought for a moment and said: "Captain Li, ten miles west of here is the Ghost Howling Valley, which is the place you must pass through on this trip, this Ghost Howling Valley is steep, and there are cliffs on both sides that are difficult to climb, and every night, there will always be a terrible cry of ghosts in the valley, so no one dares to enter the Ghost Howling Valley at night." ”

Li An grinned: "Those Orions passed by here yesterday evening, which means that they will enter the Ghost Howling Valley at night, which is enough to show that they are not as simple as Orions." ”

"Fine, you mean there will be an ambush in Ghost Howling Valley."

Li An nodded lightly: "These disguised hunters entered the Ghost Howling Valley last night, it is very likely that they set up an ambush, since the terrain of the Ghost Howling Valley is extremely dangerous, how could they miss such a great opportunity." ”

"Okay, so what are we going to do?"

Li An looked at the post general beside him, and said, "Post general, you must be very familiar with the terrain around Ghost Howling Valley, please draw it into a drawing, please." ”

"Captain Li, please see, this is the topographic map near the Ghost Howling Valley."

The post general took out a map directly from his arms and handed it to Ang Lee.

Li An looked at the post general in surprise: "You have already prepared the map?" ”

"Captain Li, don't get me wrong, I've been in this Ma Weiyi for five or six years, and I don't usually have much to do, so I'm bored and draw the terrain of the attachment on paper, this map of Ghost Howling Valley was just drawn three months ago, and there should be no mistake."

"Hahaha! Great, this is really good, General, if this captain exterminates this group of people, he will definitely take credit for your credit. ”

"Captain Xie Li."

Ang Lee unfolded the map in its entirety and guessed where the Tibetan Assassins would set up an ambush and how he would catch them all based on the terrain of the Howling Valley.

"You see, the terrain on the north side of the Ghost Roaring Valley is the most precipitous, if you ambush here and suddenly attack with a large number of boulders, it will be difficult for King Guichang's carriage to be spared, in addition, there is an extremely convenient path at the top of the cliff on the north side, which can lead to the main road to the west, which is very conducive to timely retreat."

Li An looked at it carefully for a while, and limited the ambush range of the Tibetan assassins to a very small range.

"Captain Li is really powerful, the north side is indeed the best choice for setting up an ambush, but the cliff on the north side stretches for five or six miles, and there are a lot of trees and dead grass on the mountain, if they hide it, it is really not easy to find it in a short time."

Li An slammed his finger on the map hard, and said, "This captain has his own clever plan, general, you only need to be responsible for leading the way." ”

"Yes, I understand."

"No harm, how are you going to deal with these Tibetan assassins?"

Li An sniffed his nose: "It's so fragrant!" Fill your stomach first. With that, he walked down the hill.

After lunch, Li An summoned Kunxiong, Feiyu and other brothers to first tell everyone about the very possibility of the existence of Tibetan assassins in the Ghost Howling Valley, and then began to deploy the mission.

Li An pointed to the tiled map, and said: "This is the only way for the Tibetan assassins to retreat, Kunxiong, Feiyu, you two lead one hundred and fifty soldiers to sneak in here, remember, you must not be discovered, the post general is very familiar with the terrain here, he is responsible for leading the way, let's go immediately!" ”

"Obey."

The post general, Kunxiong and Feiyu hurriedly went to prepare.

"Shouyu, you follow me to see King Guichang."

Li An took Li Fei Shouyu and strode towards Zhao Yufu, the king of Guichang.

"Li An pays a visit to King Guichang."

"Captain Li doesn't need to be polite, seeing that you are in such a hurry, is there anything wrong?"

Li An bowed down and said: "King Guichang, ten miles ahead is the Ghost Howling Valley, I suspect that there will be an ambush there, so, for the sake of safety, please change the position of King Guichang and take the last carriage." ”

"No, King Guichang is the king of a country in the Dongnu Kingdom, how can he take the last carriage, this is not in accordance with the rules."

Xi Yu suddenly appeared, disrupting Ang Lee's plan.

"Xi Shilang, the terrain of the Ghost Howling Valley ahead is dangerous, there may be an ambush, for the safety of King Guichang, temporary grievances are still necessary."

Li An hurriedly explained.

Xi Yu shook his head disapprovingly, frowned, and said: "Captain Li is brave and invincible, he has repeatedly broken the Tibetan army in Ulzhou, and has made great contributions to my Tang Dynasty, but why has he become so timid now, yesterday, you said that there were Tibetan assassins in Jincheng, and let the king of Guichang sleep in the suburbs of Shili Pavilion, what is the result?" We stayed in the city with the king of Guichang for one night, and nothing happened, this is the hinterland of my Tang Dynasty, and there are 600 soldiers under the command of Captain Li, who are just Tubo assassins, how dare they be presumptuous. ”

"Xi Shilang, today is different from yesterday, and there are enough reasons to believe that the Tibetan assassins will set up an ambush in the Ghost Howling Valley."

Ang Lee insisted on his opinion and turned his eyes to Zhao Yufu.

Zhao Yufu smiled and looked at Xi Yu: "Xi Shilang, it's better to listen to Captain Li, this king will take the last carriage." ”

"This ......"

Xi Yu hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay!" Now that King Guichang has decided, it is difficult for Xia Guan to say anything more. ”

Looking at Xi Yu with a frustrated face, Li An couldn't help but smile and cast a grateful look at Zhao Yufu.

"Xi Shilang, you are a high-ranking official of my Tang Dynasty, and you should also sit in the carriage at the back!"

Xi Yu looked arrogant, waved his hand and said: "No need, this old bone of this official is not worth much, Captain Li should protect King Guichang well!" With that, he walked to his carriage.

"No harm, if the Tibetan assassins launch a sneak attack, thirty steps before and after the carriage of King Guichang, I am afraid that they will not be able to escape the doom, Xi Shilang is angry and does not listen to the advice, in case there is really an accident, it is not good to explain to Your Majesty!"

Li Fei Shouyu looked at Xi Yu's back and felt very worried.

Li An smiled faintly: "Don't worry, just warn the groom who is driving, let him slow down, and keep a distance of more than fifty steps from the carriage of King Guichang in front of him. ”

Li Fei Shouyu was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Li An and smiled.

Xi Yu relied on the old and sold the old, thinking that he was more knowledgeable than Li An, and after a successful night in Jincheng, he was more sure of his ability, thinking that Li An was unfounded.
