Chapter 1054: Infighting
Wang Yuan nodded in agreement. But seeing Li Heng standing up, he straightened his chest and folded his belly, and recited like a bell: "Li Heng, King Feng of the Tang Dynasty, together with Li Pu, King of Ying, Li Xuan, King of Yong, Li Xuan, King Heng and other princes, were ordered by heaven to inform the military attachΓ©s and military civilians of the Tang Dynasty that in the past, the Tang Dynasty, the prosperous era, the world was clear, and all countries came to the dynasty. However, the country is born of traitors, there are traitors in the court, the world is in turmoil, and the country is in turmoil. At this time, when the whole army and the people were supposed to work together to tide over the crisis, some thieves took advantage of the danger and ignored the order of the emperor's unity, brazenly self-reliant, attracting the attention of the world. This thief disregarded the national disaster and stole the position of the heir of the Tang Dynasty, and the heavens and the earth were angry, and the people and gods were angry. β
Wang Yuan was a little surprised, this text was sharp and majestic, and it was obviously from the hands of talented people. It's a good article.
But listening to Li Heng continue to recite: "At the beginning, Li Mao was a traitor and sycophant on the side of his father, and won the trust of his father with clever words. The Emperor Taishang returned to Chang'an, the world celebrated, and all the people were happy, but the thief closed the city gate and drove the Emperor Taishang to the old palace of Lishan. Poor Taishang, who has worked hard for the country for decades, but he can't live in old age. hated this thief even more, killed Yan Zhenqing, the meritorious minister of the Tang Dynasty, and threatened Taishang, who was bedridden because of this. So far, the face of this thief's disloyalty, filial piety, benevolence and injustice has been made clear to the world, and all the people in the world have gritted their teeth and scolded him when they heard it. Today, the kings of our clan, for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, have sent a crusade against the unfilial thieves who usurped the throne, obeyed the will of heaven, responded to the will of the people, and the righteous teachers will win wherever they go. Looking at the subjects of the world, enthusiastic wind and thunder, building a perfect strategy, singing and raining dew, if you can understand the time and look at the wind, the grass and trees will not be damaged, and the chickens and dogs will not be frightened; Dare to have a back to obey and rebel, love the current selfish kindness, forget the old master, according to the danger, resist my king's division, that is, supervise the iron horse, personally conquer the nest, the old and childish do not stay, both men and women are punished, if there is a Confucian, intensive study of the art of war, to pull out the paralyzed valley, may wish to offer advice before the army, to support the humerus, since the equivalent of the material excellent Zhai, no Jin Gao Jue thick seal, from the provincial officials, if there is a clean self and love the people, honest and honest, still single; The urging to collect grain and grain, seal the warehouse, seal the letter and register, and solve it in front of the army, it is appropriate to issue another treaty, and each should obey the warning, so as not to stain the knife head with blood, the Tang Dynasty is very fortunate, and the world is very fortunate! β
sprinkled with a piece of text, it is rare that Li Heng actually missed a word from beginning to end. Wang Yuan was a little surprised, this Li Heng had really put in a lot of effort.
"Okay, this article is well written, and it has some momentum. Now that you have the text and you are ready, then you are waiting for my news. I will rest here for a few days, and then I will send troops north to attack the area of Wuzhong Ningyuan County, and I believe that soon you will be able to wave your army to Chang'an. Wang Yuan said with a smile.
Li Heng was a little proud, and said with a smile: "Don't hide it from Xiangguo, I have memorized this text for several days, and the words written by the scribes under my command are really awkward, and I almost bit my tongue." β
Wang Yuan smiled silently, stretched out his hand to serve tea to the guests, but saw Li Heng suddenly come forward and whispered: "Wang Xiangguo, there is another thing I have to tell you now, otherwise I have no bottom in my heart." β
Wang Yuan smiled: "What's the matter?" β
"Wang Xiangguo, you say, can our 60,000 soldiers and horses win against Li Mao's soldiers and horses? Even in addition to the Hui people, he has 80,000 or 90,000 soldiers and horses, and I am very worried. Once we are in a war crisis, you will not die without help, will you? Li Heng said in a low voice.
Wang Yuan looked at him coldly and said, "Lord Feng, if you can't beat Li Mao, why do you raise troops?" I advise you to immediately stop and go to Chang'an to plead guilty. Don't you look at what time it is, do you have a way out? Can you turn back? Now worry about that? β
"This ...... I didn't mean that, I meant that if we were defeated, then we wouldn't talk about anything. After all, we are not sure of leading the army. If you don't help, won't it be a bamboo basket for water? Li Heng said with a smile.
Wang Yuan frowned and said, "How else do you want me to help you?" Although you have a slightly smaller army than theirs, you have more equipment and supplies than his troops. His eighty or ninety thousand soldiers and horses were scattered in the area of Luoyang, Taiyuan, and Chang'an. Once the soldiers and horses of Chang'an City are withdrawn, there will only be less than 40,000 troops left, you can all lose to him, so what kind of throne are you fighting for him? β
Li Heng was overjoyed and said: "I see, this king does not know the deployment of his troops, it turns out that he only has less than 40,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Chang'an, and the rest are Hui cavalry. I'm relieved. But there is one more thing I still have to ask Xiangguo. β
Wang Yuan frowned and said, "What else is going on?" β
Li Hui glanced at Li Pu and said, "Can the twelfth brother avoid it for the time being, I have a confidential matter with Xiangguo." β
Li Pu glared and said, "Do you have to hide any confidential matters from this king?" Twenty-sixth brother, what kind of tricks are you playing? Don't think we don't know what you want to do, I accompanied you to see Wang Xiangguo today to prevent you from making trouble. Your word must be taught to me. β
Li Heng blushed and said: "Brother Twelve, what are you talking about, you also have to listen to my private conversation with Xiangguo, what do you think of me?" How can this really be true? β
"I don't care, Brother Eleven, they said, at this time, we have to be more mindful, so as not to be sold and don't know how to die, everyone has to supervise each other. Especially between you and Wang Xiangguo, it is even more necessary to make it public. If you don't have a ghost in your heart, why worry? Li Pu said loudly.
"Where the hell am I? It's just a personal relationship with the prime minister and a few personal words. Have you ever fought with Sangkook? Have you ever had a personal relationship? If it weren't for me, you might not be able to see Xiangguo. Li Heng said with a red neck.
"Phew, look at the one who showed you." Li Pu took a sip.
Li Heng wanted to wait for him to speak again, but Wang Yuan interrupted their dispute in a deep voice, frowned and shouted: "You two want to quarrel and go home to quarrel, how can I be a noisy place for you here?" If nothing else, please take care of yourself. Ben Shuai doesn't have time to listen to you bickering with each other. β
Li Heng hurriedly said: "That's it, spread it out." Xiangguo, you give a comment, is this crusade to regain the throne instigated by me? So if you regain the throne, who will succeed you? The twenty-seventh brother is not enough, he has no intention of succeeding to the throne, he only wants to be a Taoist priest. Among the other princes, is this king the most qualified? And Xiangguo, did you recommend this king to your father from the beginning? β
When Wang Yuan heard this, he immediately understood. It turned out that these guys hadn't fought yet, and they were arguing over the future spoils. The focus of the competition is naturally the throne, and these brothers must not give in to each other.
"This time and that time. At that time, Xiangguo did recommend you as the crown prince, but now the situation is different, how can you win the throne by crusading against Li Mao and my brothers together? Even if it is based on Xiangguo, isn't it reasonable? Li Pu shouted.
"Xiangguo is looking at my face to help me, do you think it's just a few of you? Don't forget that you said a lot of bad things about Xiangguo behind your back, and you slandered Xiangguo in front of your father, but now you are embarrassed to say such things. Li Heng pointed to Li Pu's nose and said.
"Oh, go through old accounts? Are you going to go back and talk about everything? You also ...... about the rotten grain of Chen sesame seeds."
"Shut up!" Wang Yuan finally couldn't bear to shoot the case, Wang Yuan thought that this uneven distribution of spoils would at least after defeating Li Mao, but he didn't expect that before the eight characters were skimmed, the brothers were already in trouble. It seems that the descendants of the Li family are indeed not saved, and none of the princes who are still alive know the overall situation and the unification, I am afraid that the qi is really exhausted.
"Listen to me, before the cake arrived, he made a mess of himself in order to divide the cake, so how can he compete with Li Mao? I advise you princes to either unite to defeat Li Mao, or go back and plead guilty to Li Mao, and wait for Li Mao to show mercy and surround your lives. How can this be! Who will inherit the throne will always have to wait for that position to become vacant. When the time comes, there will be a way to teach you to be satisfied. Now it's going to be a commotion, what kind of system is it? If you continue to be so ignorant of the times, tomorrow I will cut off your food and grass, so that you will have no soldiers and no soldiers, and see how you fight. β
Li Heng and Li Pu both bowed their heads and were silent, although as the prince and prince were a little dissatisfied with Wang Yuan's reprimand, but who told that everything now depends on Wang Yuan. In addition, Wang Yuan's words also made the two of them feel a little remorseful in their hearts, and they glared at each other and didn't dare to quarrel anymore.
Wang Yuan continued: "Go back and tell the other princes that if you can't unite, you will be defeated. But don't think I'll save you. If you are arguing over this unfinished throne, I would rather personally send troops in the name of the Emperor, and in the future, Emperor Tai will return to the court, and save you people from quarreling in private. That's all I say, I won't leave the two princes behind, please go back. β
Li Hui and Li Pu were both shocked, if Wang Yuan really made a fuss in the end, he could only choose to serve his father and the emperor again, it would be a situation where everyone lost. It's not good for everyone.
Li Heng thought that Wang Yuan would be completely biased towards himself and give himself a reassurance, but unexpectedly, when Wang Yuan said this, it was really difficult to dispel him. He wanted to say something to Wang Yuan, but found that Wang Yuan had already turned around and stood in the hall without looking at them.
Several guards came in from the side, and one of the captains of the guards said, "Two princes, please." β
Li Heng sighed, stomped his feet, and turned to leave. Li Pu was stunned for a moment and chased after him.
