Chapter 128 The Intersection of the Neck, the Paper Paste Gold Hammer
Throughout the history of the world, a very strange phenomenon will be discovered. Whether it was the Persian Empire, the Alexander Empire, or the Roman Empire, they all rose like a comet in the long river of history, and withered as quickly as an epiphany.
Today's Persian Empire is long gone, and Alexander's empire can only find some traces of existence in the dust of history, and as for the Roman Empire, only infinite reverie remains.
Looking at the forest of nations in the whole world, only the Chinese nation stands tall. In any case, most of the ethnic groups with the Han nationality as the main body will unify ancient China, although there are also foreign races stepping on Jinling, or internal contradictions cause national unification, and the trend of the whole China is still moving towards unification.
The awakening of the Chinese national consciousness was far earlier than that of other countries in the world. As early as after the unification of Qin Shi Huang, the Chinese nation faced a severe problem of survival, and concentrating on resisting the southern invasion of the Xiongnu became the unification idea of the Chinese nation, in this case, unification means strength.
Of course, during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Huaxia was beaten miserably by the northern nomads, and was abused to death. More than 20 million Han Chinese in the entire north were slaughtered to less than 4 million, and the entire nation was on the verge of extinction. As far as the German mustache is concerned, at that time, Yang Jian represented the interests of the Chinese nation, so the history of the enslavement of the entire nation for more than 300 years began to end.
Yang Jian, Yang Guang, father and son, were finally defeated by the unwilling to fail Guanlong aristocratic group. As the so-called king is defeated, the common people don't care who is the emperor, what they care about most is whether the emperor can take them to live a good life. In the view of Shan Xiongxin and others, Li Tang can guarantee the basic survival rights of everyone and let them reproduce, this is a good emperor. This means that destiny returns.
On the contrary, in this regard, Wang Shichong has done relatively poorly. Luoyang is usually fine, it is also a place of ointment, but in wartime, Luoyang is different, belongs to the land of four wars, from the ninth year of the great cause, Luoyang is the center of the world's turmoil, a large number of villages were destroyed by the war, a large number of people died innocently in this meaningless infighting.
Of course, the most difficult thing for Shan Xiongxin to understand is that Wang Shichong resisted the Tang State in order to expand his troops. From time to time, the people were forcibly recruited into the army, and the people were forcibly taxed, and the people who were devastated by the war had a difficult life, but now it is even worse.
If Shan Xiongxin wants to say anything about strategic long-term vision, it must be nonsense. He can't see through the general trend of the world, but he knows that the longer Wang Shichong resists, the more painful the people of the Central Plains will be, and when the time comes, there will be countless people who will destroy their families, villages, and clans. Since Li Tang can let go of these Zheng soldiers whose hands are stained with the blood of Tang soldiers, he will definitely be good to the people.
"Return to Li Tang and unify the world|" This idea slowly became Shan Xiongxin's obsession.
Chen Ying met the deep-eyed Shan Xiongxin in his four-wheeled carriage, and in just three days, this majestic eight-foot-tall man had lost a lot of weight.
As soon as they met, Shan Xiongxin knelt down in front of Chen Ying with a thud.
Chen Ying did not learn from the appearance of the master in the TV series, grabbed Shan Xiongxin's arm, and persuaded the captain with good words. Chen Ying said lightly: "General Shan, have you figured it out?" β
Shan Xiongxin lowered his head and raised his head suddenly: "Xiongxin has figured it out, if Xiongxin doesn't descend to Tang again, he will be too ignorant of lifting." β
Chen Ying's eyes were like lightning, and he looked at Shan Xiongxin and said, "Are you willing to surrender?" β
Who knew that Shan Xiongxin shook his head unexpectedly and sighed: "Lord Li has such a mind, no wonder he can defeat Xue Ju, kill Li Rail, destroy Liu Wuzhou, swallow thousands of miles like a tiger, look at the Central Plains, providence, providence!" This is destiny...... It's just that Xiongxin can't be lowered, it's not that he doesn't want to fall, but he can't. β
Speaking of this, a look of struggle and entanglement appeared on Shan Xiongxin's face, his expression was very painful, as if he wanted to break out at any time, Ashina Simo was worried that Shan Xiongxin would burst out and hurt Chen Ying, so he had already pressed his hand on the horizontal handle of the horizontal knife, as long as Shan Xiongxin dared to move, he would cut off his neck as soon as possible.
Shan Xiongxin said: "When you meet this master, how can you not return!" It's just that the big husband has something to do and something not to do. Although my grandfather is not worthy of our brother's life, but he has never failed Xiongxin, if Xiongxin fails his grandfather, will he not take revenge, equivalent to a beast? β
Chen Ying slightly realized, although Shan Xiongxin is foolish and loyal, but this makes Chen Ying even more fancy, because what he can give Shan Xiongxin is always limited, whether it is Li Shimin or Li Jiancheng, they can give Shan Xiongxin more things, only such a Shan Xiongxin is worthy of Chen Ying's reliance. Chen Ying sighed and said: "General Shan has something unspeakable, but it doesn't hurt to say it, if the general can do it, he will definitely do it for you." β
Shan Xiongxin's eyes turned a little red: "Xiongxin can't help it." Although Xiongxin's wife is in Luoyang, his grandfather will not treat her lightly because of this, but Xiongxin still has hundreds of family members in Luoyang, and once Xiongxin falls, they will definitely die! This is hundreds of lives, only if I die, can I exchange a glimmer of life for them! β
Chen Yingdao: "General Shan, don't worry, your family members, Chen has been sent to Luoyang City to pick up, if things go well, then you can be at least ten days, more than half a month, you can reunite with your family!" β
When Shan Xiongxin heard this, he was very moved: "No matter whether General Chen can rescue people or not, Shan Xiongxin swears allegiance to the general, if they have three longs and two shorts, Xiongxin will try to avenge them!" β
Chen Yingdao: "I have already declared to the public that General Shan would rather die than surrender, and he has already killed himself." I am afraid that this news has reached Luoyang, and Wang Shichong will not jump off the wall in a hurry. It can also be left to Luoyang's manpower, a few days of preparation time, after all, in Luoyang, the longer the preparation time, the greater the chance of success. β
Shan Xiongxin was slightly stunned, thought for a while, and said: "General, Xiongxin has a friend in Luoyang, named Qi Guoyuan, who lives in Tianjin Street in Luoyang, and there are three cherry trees in front of the door. β
After hearing the name Qi Guoyuan, Chen Ying still had some impressions. Qi Guoyuan, who commented on "Wagang Heroes" and other commentaries, had low skills, and often used a huge papier-mΓ’chΓ© sledgehammer to swagger in front of the battle, and those who did not know such as Qin Qiong and Pei Yuanqing were deceived by him during the battle, and when the weapons of the two sides collided, the paper hammer immediately revealed its feet. Jia Jialou bowed to the heroes, Qi Guoyuan ranked twenty-seventh, and was later named one of the eight biao generals by the demon king Cheng Yanjin in Wagang.
"Papier-mΓ’chΓ© general?" Chen Ying was puzzled: "Is this person reliable?" β
Shan Xiongxin said: "Very reliable, Xiongxin can guarantee his life." β
Saying that, Shan Xiongxin took out a small jade plaque from his arms, white and flawless, about the size of a finger, Shan Xiongxin handed the jade plaque to Chen Ying: "If it is convenient for the general, please give this token to Qi Guoyuan, he will definitely believe that the person who came is entrusted by Xiongxin." β
Chen Ying nodded, looked at this jade plate, and saw that it was faintly carved with a flying wolf with wings on its back, Chen Ying didn't know that this was the unique mark of the single male master.
With the surrender of Shan Xiongxin, the next reorganization will be much easier, in the late Sui and early Tang dynasties, there was no concept of loyalty to the monarch, and Shan Xiongxin's old generals such as Wagang actually did not have much deep feelings for Wang Shichong, originally they had already surrendered, and even in order to surrender Shan Xiongxin, Fan Hu also forced Shan Xiongxin to surrender.
Shan Xiongxin surrendered, and it was easy to distinguish which people in the army could be used, and which people were Wang Shichong's henchmen and could not be bought and used.
Shan Xiongxin killed thirty-seven generals above the rank of lieutenant in the prisoner camp, but there was no Fan Hu, which surprised Chen Ying very much. Under the leadership of Shan Xiongxin, the officers and men of the army who had completed the reorganization carried out intense training in accordance with Chen Ying's tactics.
