Chapter 129: Reflections (3)
Updated: 2013-11-13
The paper was gently placed in front of He Yu, a thin volume. The latest free chapters of the book can be found here.
The county lord of Jingling raised his hand to He Yu and signaled: "Please see." ”
He Yu opened the paperwork, glanced at it a few times, and his face immediately became a little ugly. The content of this document is not rich, and the deeds described in the simple sentences belong to the general of the 'gate' of Bingzhouya, Lu Yao, whom he tried his best to attack.
Among them, there is Lu Yao's life experience, which was once secretive; There are records of him leading his army back after the defeat at Daling, killing and wounding ten times the enemy; There are a series of victories in his fierce battles with the Xiongnu under Liu Yueshi; There are even detailed records of Lu Yao helping in the battle in Yecheng and killing Jisang in battle. Ling He Yu was a little embarrassed that a number of words and phrases describing the battle situation in Lu Yao Yecheng had "Recruit righteous and brave soldiers, and strive for the momentum of eagles; Zhi Xiao rebelled, and the most loyal has written" Yunyun, which was excerpted from his recital to the court a few days ago.
That kind of music is just the result of the 'exchange' of interests with Li Yun, who is begging, Yang Heng, the former chariot general, Changshi, and others, and He Yu didn't pay special attention to it. So when he decided to defend Ding Shao, he did not hesitate to abandon this general who had made the first contribution to guarding Yecheng. But what's going on with this document in front of you? That Lu Yao is just a general of the 'gate' after Jiangdong surrendered, although he is an official of 2,000 stones, but in the eyes of high-ranking officials like He Yu, there is really nothing worth paying attention to. Why does the county lord of Jingling know about him like this?
Could it be that he has been so unfavorable for the past year, and after saying a few more words casually, he bumped into the cronies of His Royal Highness the King of the East China Sea again? He Yu was moved, and suddenly thought: Liu Yueshi of Bingzhou is the important minister of the East China Sea King's arm, and Lu Yao is a general under Liu Yueshi, perhaps also from the East China Sea King Shogunate...... He secretly screamed bitterly in his heart, and he wanted to slap himself twice. He reluctantly smiled and said tentatively: "Hehe, even the martial artists of the prefecture have detailed records, and His Highness's detection methods are really clever. ”
The county lord of Jingling shook his head, and his face was a little strange: "Don't be surprised. The war situation in Jizhou was unfavorable, and the princes of the DPRK and China did not know that thieves were rampant, but they were just blindly demanding and had many doubts about the generals. If he had to explain and mediate with the duke, not only Yecheng would be civil and military, but presumably Ding Tingshi would also deeply feel the friendship of Uncle Shi. ”
Ding Shaotun stationed heavy troops in Guangzong and did not dare to move, in fact, it was precisely because it was unfavorable to unite the Yecheng armies with Yu and was not enough to threaten the Shile thieves to the east. But in terms of Heyu, it was Ding Shao who owed him a lot of favors. It is inevitable that there will be a conflict between such local officials who are in power, and the lord of Jingling County is used to seeing it. Ding Shao and Yu Ju are important subordinates who are trusted by the King of the East China Sea, and she has no intention of 'interfering' in the process.
"It's just that I didn't know that Lu Yao had another accident in Daijun...... "The county lord pursed his lips and lowered his voice slightly: "When Uncle Shi writes to Luoyang, it's better not to mention this person first." ”
"What do you mean?"
"It's a long story." The county lord of Jingling leaned forward and approached Heyu a little: "Uncle Shi, do you know, how did Lu Yao kill Jisang?" ”
He Yu is responsible for the aftermath of Wei County, although he is busy with the mud and rarely involves practice, but he is still clear about major matters. He replied: "According to the civil and military officials who were present at the time, at that time, Jisang and Shile echoed inside and outside, and after breaking through the palace and Santai, they attacked and built 'spring' and 'gate' in two ways. At this moment, Lu Yao, who assisted in defending the city, unintentionally found the white tiger flags left by the king of Chengdu in the self-built 'spring' and 'gate' cities, and set them up at the head of the city to boost morale. After witnessing the White Tiger Banner, the people of the Jisang tribe felt the majesty of the imperial court, so they discarded the armor and equipment and scattered in a hurry......"
He Yu replied in a low tone, but the county lord of Jingling shook his head again and again: "Such an absurd story, Uncle Shi, do you believe it?" ”
He Yu hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to do for a while.
"In the two years since Yongxing, the Jisang thieves have moved to the north and south of the river, attacking the prefectures and counties, and killing people. In the past three years, the imperial court has mobilized heavy troops in many ways, but it has always been suppressed. They are all robbers and giants who regard the majesty of the imperial court as nothing, and they also have the iron heart honed on the battlefield. Say they will be terrified by a few flags, even to the point of fleeing? The county lord of Jingling shook his head, and 'revealed' a sarcastic look: "I won't believe it." ”
Those who can become high-ranking officials in the court will not be fools. How could He Yu not see the problem of the battle of Yecheng. It's just that since ancient times, there have been many exaggerations and even hypocrisy in military newspapers, which are just martial artists asking for merit and rewards, and He Yu feels that there is no need to study it in detail. So he frowned and said: "In the past, the king of Chu conspired against him and mobilized the thirty-sixth army. Taifu Zhang Hua ordered the general of the palace to hold the Yu banner and lead the people, and the Chinese army under the king of Chu released the staff and left, which is barely a precedent......"
"But that's because it happened in Luoyang, where the authority of the imperial court is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people! Facing the Yu Banner is the forbidden army that guards Luoyang and guards the imperial court! Hebei thieves killed officials and rebelled, how could they put a few flags in their eyes? Needless to say, those people were originally lowly herdsmen, and they didn't even know the White Tiger Banner! The county lord of Jingling was furious, and slapped the case table violently, and the banging sound almost made the servants and 'maids' behind him jump in fright.
He Yu couldn't help but shrink his neck: "Ahem...... Forgive me for my foolishness, but I did not think of so much. What is the opinion of the county lord, please tell me. ”
This nervousness, and Yu couldn't even take care of the title of "Pei Langjun", so he directly called out the word county lord.
Jingling County didn't care about these subtleties, and she waved her hand again and again a little anxiously, causing all the attendants behind her to retreat. He Yu hurriedly repelled the stream of servants and maids.
On the desk in front of the lord of Jingling County, there are wine vessels such as bottled ear cups. Among them, several ear cups with wooden tires and vermilion lacquer and crescent ears are particularly 'exquisite' and gorgeous. She picked up a few ear cups, first placed them on the right side of the case, and set up a question for each one: "During the Yongxing period, the Chengdu royal general raised troops in Qinghe to support the old master, and successively captured Yangping, Jijun and other places. This is the indiscriminate use of Hebei bandits. Although the Gongshi was immediately defeated and died, many of the backbones of the remaining troops led by Ji Sang came from the old subordinates of the king of Chengdu. A few years later, Ji Sang led a large army to attack Yecheng, and Lu Yao showed himself with the former banner of the king of Chengdu, and the thieves immediately defected...... Hegong, don't you think it's a little strange? ”
She looked at He Yu and asked one after another: "Chengdu Wang has been operating in Yecheng for many years and is deeply rooted; Since he deliberately hid the White Tiger Flag, it must be extremely secretive, and there is no risk of being exposed, how could he be discovered by Lu Yao by mistake? Now that the battle in Yecheng has ended, the whereabouts of the white tiger banner on all sides are unknown, what is the intention of the person who took it away? After the death of Ji Sang, there were no less than thousands of people in ambush under his subordinates, and I heard that among them, the particularly brave and strong ones were named Liu Fei, Chen Pei, etc., who is this generation under now? ”
The four ear cups on the desk fell one after another, and Yu thought for a moment, and his eyes widened suddenly. His facial movements were so violent that the white powder on his cheeks fell a lot: "Could it be that Lu Yao is involved with the King of Chengdu?" ”
The county lord of Jingling County Shen 'groaned' and did not answer. Sima Ying, the king of Chengdu, was the sixteenth son of Emperor Wu of the Great Jin Dynasty, and in the Luoyang 'chaos' situation in previous years, he was once in charge of the government as the prime minister and the emperor's younger brother, and had the fiefdom of Hebei and the Central Plains 20 counties. The king of the East China Sea was very jealous of it, so after the defeat of the king of Chengdu, he specially ordered Liu Yu, who was then the king of Fanyang, to give this cousin and his second son to death. The county lord of Jingling and He Yu both knew very well how deep the foundation of the king of Chengdu was, even if they had already gone to Huangquan with their families, all the matters involving the rest of the king of Chengdu still made them extremely nervous and vigilant.
After almost half a moment, the county lord frowned and thought, and placed the ear cup on the left side of the case, still every time he placed one, he set a word: "The predecessors of the Jiangdong Lu family, Lu Ji, Lu Yun, etc., were once reused by the king of Chengdu. Lu Ji was once the general and the governor of Hebei, commanding more than 200,000 troops to compete with Luoyang. However, it was precisely because of this appointment that the generals were jealous, which eventually led to the move of the king of Chengdu to punish the Lu family. From this point of view, Lu Yao and the king of Chengdu are also enemies. ”
There was a soft sound, and the first ear cup fell.
After Lu Ji, Lu Yun and others were killed, Lu Yao escaped by luck and did not return to his hometown in Jiangdong, but went to Bingzhou to join the army and fought a fierce battle with the Huns. At that time, Yu Liu Yuan, the Xiongnu Dadan, was appointed as the general of Ning Shuo and supervised the five military departments by the king of Chengdu, and he was a force relied on by Wang Shen of Chengdu. Since Lu Yao spared no effort to fight against it, his intention to support the imperial court can be described as distinct. ”
The second ear cup drops.
"Wei County was once the fief of the king of Chengdu. The king of Chengdu has been operating in this place for many years, giving wide benevolence, once giving relief to the victims with 150,000 grains, and once collecting the dead soldiers in battle, and setting up a cemetery for mourning. This kind of good governance is deeply cherished by the people, and there are still many people who remember it. If Lu Yao really had any involvement and plots with the rest of the king of Chengdu, after defeating Jisang, he could rely on Yecheng to make trouble, and then lead troops to sweep the Three Weis. But he actually respected Liu Yueshi's order and took the initiative to leave Wei County? Moreover, at this moment, he provoked an entanglement and vicious fight with the Hu people in Daijun, although he was reckless, but after all, he was fighting against foreign enemies...... Can a man who has harbored different aspirations since ancient times behave like this? ”
The county lord of Jingling angrily slapped the third ear cup: "This Lu Daoming is acting ridiculously, what does he want to do?" It's really incomprehensible! ”
At this moment, there was a commotion in the audience, it turned out to be a knight Yue Mo Duqian, galloping his horse wildly, but was stopped by Heyu's subordinate servants, thinking that this person would disturb the feast with the distinguished guests.
Amid the neighing of the horses, the knight shouted loudly: "Lord Qi, report on behalf of the county!" ”
"Bring it on!" Before He Yu could answer, the county lord of Jingling County gave his own order.
