Chapter 317: Six Kings!
Heifu shouted several times before Yang Xiong recognized that this Xiaqing, who was wearing a crane crown, was actually his former subordinate, Xiaotun Chang Heifu......
At that time, Yang Xiong relied on the shadow of his father's generation to enlist in the army as a Lang official, and after fighting the battle to destroy Wei, he became a public doctor. In the next few wars, he jumped three levels to the left chief, and then entered Xianyang as the "Weinan Sima" of the guard army, leading 3,000 troops.
But Hefu was just a no-go at the time, and the speed of the rise was really amazing. However, Yang Xiong also heard that Heifu won the banner of Xiang Yan's army, and the southern expedition to Yuzhang, and opened up thousands of miles.
Sitting on an equal footing with his former subordinates, Yang Xiong's heart was a little complicated, but his mind was already deep, and he quickly covered it up with a burst of laughter.
"Those who are Lang can not only see the king from time to time, but also be the main source of county magistrates, maybe when you leave Xianyang, you will be able to go out of the herding for hundreds of miles, thousands of miles! Hef, be reluctant! ”
However, there is another sentence that Yang Xiong did not say, Langguan Lang Wei is often strictly selected from the children of military nobles who are well-born in Guanzhong and loyal for generations, and they are all arrogant. With the title of Heifu, he should be able to hold a large official position, but it is not easy for a boss like him to convince his subordinates......
Heifu was busy and didn't dare to talk, and after being humble and polite, he pointed to the guards who guarded the Baqiao tightly and did not allow the officials and people to pass through: "Yang Sima, what happened to such a battle?" ”
After asking, he made a gaffe again, and arched his hand: "If it is a matter of confidentiality, I will not ask the official!" ”
Yang Xiong said: "It's not a secret, soon, all Xianyang, everyone in the world can know, but the news hasn't come yet." ”
"Oh? What is it? ”
"Don't worry, guess." Yang Xiong sold a pass, and his eyes also looked to the east, which was the location of Hangu Pass.
A thought flashed in Heifu's heart, and he said with a smile: "In the spring and summer of last year, the Yan Dynasty perished, and in May, the king announced that the world was drunk, and after that, until the autumn harvest, there was no war in various places. Calculating the time, if you take advantage of the autumn farming to use troops in the east, you will almost have a result......"
Yang Xiong glanced at Heifu in surprise and said with a smile: "You guessed right, at the end of October, General Wang Ben, General Meng Tian, and General Li Xin went south from Yandi to attack Qi, and at the beginning of the month, the troops came to the north of the Qi country, and when it came to the second half of the month, the Qi country surrendered without a fight......"
"How fast!"
Heifu has heard of the affairs of Qi State, and now that the Three Jin Dynasty Yan and Chu have been destroyed, almost all the feudal monarchs, ministers, soldiers, and rangers of the Five Kingdoms have fled to Qi State, where it has become the area with the most concentrated restoration forces. They must have worked hard to fight to the death with the Qin State, but unexpectedly, the King of Qi surrendered without even resisting.
"It's the credit of Qi Xiang's victory."
Yang Xiong laughed: "For so many years, when did you not send him gold and jewelry?" Relying on his mediation, the state of Qi will sit back and watch the princes perish one after another, Qi Wangjian succeeded to the throne for forty years, and the land of Qi has not been warred for forty years, the armor is not repaired, the people do not teach, and when the army comes to the door, they have become soft bones and dare not resist. ”
"And Chen Chi, the envoy of the Qin State, was ordered by the king to lure him with five hundred miles, and Qi Wangjian sent it to the door himself!"
As he spoke, he pointed to the chariots in the distance, Ma Xiaoxiao, and a group of people from east to west and said, "Look, the team of people and horses built by King Qi to enter the dynasty has arrived!" ”
……
On this day, thousands of people gathered at the Baqiao Bridge to watch the grand occasion of King Qi's entry into the Qin Dynasty.
Among them, there were passers-by, as well as local farmers, and everyone was very excited, pointing at the princes and grandsons, palace maids, tall women, and ministers and hundreds of officials who stepped on the Baqiao one after another.
"This is a court, it's clearly a captive."
Heifu's coachman Sangmu shook his head, but saw that the princes and grandsons who were wearing Qi Juan Lu were depressed, and the palace maids were crying and crying, and they had already made up their makeup, and the ministers and officials were even more sighing in three steps.
Previously, Sang Mu went to ask for his title, and the old farmer, who claimed to be an "official doctor", was also supported by his grandson, and stood on tiptoe to watch this scene, his right arm had been broken, and he had to put his left arm on his grandson's shoulder.
Hearing Sang Mu say this, the one-armed old peasant smiled and said: "Housheng, you are right, you are not entering the court, you are a prisoner!" This meeting, starting from the seventeenth year of this king, the old decay has already seen the sixth encounter! ”
The seventeenth year of the reign of King Qin happened to be the year of the fall of Korea.
"My husband is old, has a high title, and has a wide range of knowledge." Heifu praised the old peasant, but the old peasant gushed endlessly.
"The first to come was Han Wang'an, the team drummed Zheng Wei's voice, Zheng Jun, who was in charge of the ditch, also came to pick him up, and made a head by the bridge, saying that he could no longer be King Han's courtier, and he was emotional, by the way, the one who captured King Han at that time was the internal history who just came last month...... What is his clan? ”
"Leaf." Hefu took it for him.
"That's right, it's Ye!"
The old farmer patted the back of his gray-haired head with one arm and said with a smile: "After a few years, King Zhao also came." King Zhao is said to be the son of a prostitute, and the king was the most unkind to Zhao Guo, letting him wear a big cloth coat and a sheep's coat, not even a car, and walked all the way into the customs. More than 1,000 miles down, the shoes have gone, the feet are full of blood, step by step, the blood marks are left on the bridge, but unfortunately the cars and pedestrians step on it, and now it is no longer visible......"
He showed a lot of missing teeth again: "I don't pity him, I also hate Zhao Ren, my right hand was lost in Changping forty years ago!" ”
Hearing that it was a veteran who had fought the Battle of Changping with Wu Anjun Baiqi, Heifu couldn't help but be in awe, and asked the old farmer to sit down in the car, and he didn't think he was nagging.
The old farmer was very satisfied with Heifu's attitude, at his age, this experience was comparable to Wang Qian, not to mention that he was a left chief, even if the prime minister came, he would not necessarily give a good face.
"But then again, we didn't kill Zhao people, more than 400,000 people, the killing was red-eyed, the heads were piled up in the valley, the corpses couldn't be buried, and finally even the Danshui was blocked. But this Zhao people are always like crops in the field, they can never be killed, and there is a stubble here, and another stubble grows in Handan. Whether it is or not, if you want to talk about grudges, the Zhao people hate the Qin people, and even more. ”
"Then there is the King of Wei, the King of Wei cried that it was a miserable, I heard that his capital was flooded, washed away, many people died, the streets and alleys can drive boats, and the land cannot be planted, it is really sad."
Heifu participated in the battle to destroy Wei and saw the scene of the king of Wei surrendering to Wang Ben.
"Then came the king of Chu...... What is his name, two words, Chu Yin is embarrassed, I don't remember. The state of Chu was brought back by the way after the king inspected the east, and there were thousands of Chu people, the women were all petite women, and the men were all fresh crowns and robes. However, according to the old decay, such a tall Chu crown is just a target for arrows on the battlefield, Hugh said that women, even men have such a thin waist, how can they fight? No wonder he has been chased by Da Qin all the time. ”
"There is also Yan Wangxi, who was captured last year, the smallest number of people, wearing the clothes of a prisoner, I don't remember anything else, I remember the hundreds of captured Donghu horses."
"In the end, it's the king of Qi......"
The words of the old farmer in Baqiao reminded Heifu of a sentence he had learned in a textbook: Yan and Zhao Zhi's collection, Han and Wei's management, and the elites of Qi and Chu have been plagiarizing their people for several generations, leaning on them like mountains. Once you can't have it, you lose it......
The old farmer's mouth was dry, and Heifu smiled and handed over his leather pot, and the old farmer took a sip and complained that this was not wine.
While they were talking, most of the people had already passed, and the chariot of the King of Qi had also arrived......
……
Qi Wangjian surrendered on his own initiative, and the treatment was a little better than that of Zhao Wangqian, and there were carriages and horses to sit on, but there was no canopy on the car, not even a curtain, probably deliberately to make him accept the contemptuous gaze of the Qin people.
In Heifu's eyes, King Qi is an old fat man, with a high crown and a broad belt, dressed in purple, although in the old-fashioned Qin State, purple is not positive, but the Qi people like it, and the purple clothes are the most expensive in the whole country.
Before and after King Qi's car, in addition to the Qin soldiers who escorted him, there were also a few people dressed like doctors, they didn't have a car to sit on, they could only walk, a few people couldn't walk, and they didn't care about the etiquette of the monarch and ministers, and pulled the wheel of King Qi to borrow strength.
Only a tall Qi man walked in front of the carriage with his head held high, and Heifu saw that he was still wearing shackles on his hands.
When he came to Baqiao, this person stopped, raised his bloodshot eyes, looked at Xianyang City looming in the distance, and showed a miserable smile.
He seemed to have made up his mind, grabbed the front in a few steps, and stopped Qi Wangjian's carriage!
The Qin officials who were driving the car hurriedly reined in their horses, and asked the Qin soldiers guarding the bridge to drive the man away.
This person grabbed the Huabiao at the head of the bridge and said loudly:
"The subordinate once said to the king that the Qi area is thousands of miles, and the armor is hundreds of thousands. And the strong men of the Three Jin Dynasty, none of them surrendered to Qin Kou, and there were tens of thousands of people between Ah and Hu, and the king collected them with 100,000 people, so that the hometown of the Three Jin Dynasty could be entered by the Jin. Doctor Chu and Yan don't want to be Qin's captives, but there are hundreds of people in Chengyang, and the king collects them with 100,000 divisions, so that they can collect Chu's hometown, then Wuguan can be entered! In this way, Qi Wei can stand, and the five countries can be restored! ”
"However, the king does not listen to his ministers, but prefers to believe in the words of Hou Sheng, and the west is Qin, and now he regrets it? Where are the five hundred li of land promised to the king by the Qin envoy? If we had listened to the ministers' plans earlier, now that we had crossed the Baqiao and drunk Ma Weishui, how could we be captured by Qin!? ”
These words are in the dialect of Qi State, the Qin people can't understand it, they look at each other head-on, the fat man on the carriage King Qi was aggrieved all the way, this will be really unbearable, he actually burst into tears, got up and arched his hand: "Doctor Jimo, the widow ......"
It's useless to say anything, but Doctor Jimo stopped him and sighed: "In the past, I was the king of the king, and the inscription was written, so as to steam and taste, keep Qi Bang, and the descendants of the world will always be a classic!" The one who sets up the king is also the society! Those who are ministers are also social leaders. But now, Qi Guosheji has died, and the Tian clan temple has become extinct......"
"I didn't dare to die, but when I came here, I really didn't want to enter Xianyang as a chieftain, laugh for the Qin people, and deserve to die!"
After saying that, he slammed his head into the stone Huabiao he was holding, with great force, as if he heard the sound of a watermelon opening, and Dr. Jimo was bleeding all over his face in an instant, his body was paralyzed, and he was not alive......
The onlookers of the Qin people let out a burst of exclamations, and Qi Wangjian was very sad, choked a few words, and wanted to get out of the car, but was stopped by the Qin officials.
He could only hide his face, and said goodbye to his courtiers without shame, and asked Yang Xiong, who came to check, to bury Dr. Jimo properly.
Yang Xiong disdainfully arranged for his subordinates to say: "Find a local sifu, dig a pit casually, and bury it!" ”
After the soldiers dragged away the body of Dr. Jimo, leaving only two blood marks, the one-armed old peasant who had been silent for a long time said quietly: "Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan, Qi, although the monarchs of each country are not good, and the generals are also greedy for life and afraid of death, but they all have loyal ministers." ”
Heifu was also quite touched, and secretly thought: "However, if the kings of the six countries have learned to love each other since more than a hundred years ago, why ...... this?"
However, even if King Qi Wei and King Xuan are wise and wise, it is inevitable that in addition to the descendants who are either stupid and arrogant, or short-sighted, like Qin Guo, there have been six or seven generations of virtuous monarchs since Qin Xiangong, which is really the probability of drawing a grand prize.
Besides, if the six kings were all virtuous, Heifu would not be able to mix with Zuo Shu so easily, and the children of Nanjun under his command would also suffer heavy losses.
The old farmer shook his head and sighed for a while, but soon became happy again: "My eldest grandson also followed General Meng Tian to fight the Yan Dynasty and went to the Qi Kingdom, since there is no need to fight, then he will be able to come back soon!" ”
After saying that, he also lost his interest in watching the excitement and let his grandson leave with him.
Heifu had to wait to cross the bridge, so he waited until the tail of the convoy, and the wind blew through the bamboo mats covered by the car, revealing a golden corner that amazed everyone.
Ironically, these dozens of carts of gold were all sent by the King of Qin to Qi Xiang Housheng in the past ten years, asking him not to help the Five Kingdoms reject Qin. Now, Hou Sheng has returned it with interest......
After all the carriages and horses escorting King Qi passed, Yang Xiong lifted the martial law of Baqiao, and as Sang Mu threw a whip in the air, Heifu's carriage set off again.
Driving on the Baqiao, looking at the queue of Qi people not far ahead, Heifu only felt that a piece of history had come to an end under his own witness.
His six-year expedition to the east and south has finally come to an end.
With the fall of the Qi State, the 550-year war of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period also came to an end!
Heifu looked to the north, and he saw the billowing smoke on the north bank of Weishui, where a huge golden figure was being cast, and he also saw the majestic palace on the Xianyang Plateau, under the blue sky and white clouds!
The First Emperor, waiting for him there to report for duty.
A new story is also waiting for Heifu to open!
Heifu smiled, patted the wheels gently, and summed up the rush for so many years.
"Six kings, four seas and one!"
