Chapter 7 Liaodong Fengyun (2)
Xue Muyun and others searched for a long time before they found clues in the well in the courtyard.
They salvaged a female corpse from the well without any inches. As a few days passed, it was summer again, the body had already rotted, but looking at that appearance, Xue Muyun vaguely recognized this person.
It’s Li Huaide’s concubine!
It turned out that the woman's father was also a tooth in the Liucheng Quechang and started a family and a career in Quechang. By chance, his daughter was attracted by Li Huaide and became his concubine. At this time, Xue Muyun remembered that ten days ago, the woman brought some people back to visit her relatives, but she unexpectedly encountered a murderous move.
The woman had a wooden stick in her lower body. This situation was not only discovered here, but was found in several other families. They were all women from wealthy families. Naturally, Dong Qin and his subordinates, who were known as Eighteen Tigers, did it.
......
That night, Xue Muyun and his men used their last coffin to collect Li Huaide's concubine, and drove a large cart to carry the coffin east.
A few days later, he came to Xiangping City.
......
Xiangping City, in the past few days, the governor of the Xiangping Governor's Office, Li Huaide, the family of the family has been living in grief and anger.
Li Huaide had wives and concubines before, but the concubine who could give birth to a son for him was the concubine. As his wife died, she was about to be properly promoted. Unexpectedly, after returning home, she was separated by yin and yang, and she suffered a great humiliation during her lifetime!
In the original history, Liu Kenu, defeated by Shi Siming, and Dong Qin and his gang came to surrender to Andong Protector. Later, Dong Qin was promoted to the Jiedushi of Pinglu, but he did not take long to cross the sea to Shandong as the Jiedushi. Historical books recorded that they could not withstand the harassment of the surrounding tribes, and naturally because Li Huaide from Xiangping City was inconsistent with him.
Li Huaide is forty years old this year. He is already as familiar with the Khitan as Li Guangbi. No, he is even more Han than Han people. After this incident, the Khitans in the Dahe family hidden in his heart finally appeared.
Unlike the original history, after Dong Qin and his gang destroyed the chariot, they burned the chariot together with the corpse, without leaving Xue Muyun the chance to collect the corpse. It took Li Huaide a long time to learn about his concubine. Now, because of Xue Muyun's appearance, he has the opportunity to avenge his early revenge.
However, Dong Qin is famous throughout the Pinglu Jiedu Mansion. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the number one strong general in Liaodong. The 3,000 vanguard troops under his command can withstand the attack of 10,000 Khitan elites, which is naturally extraordinary. After several years of hard work and the secret support of the Thunder Ye Army, Li Huaide only collected 3,000 troops, or 3,000 troops with only leather armor.
However, it can also rely on Wang Xuanzhi, the current Anton Protector.
Wang Xuanzhi has 7,000 troops under his command, half of which are mixed with the vassals, and his combat power is quite considerable. If he joins forces with Wang Xuanzhi, there may be a chance. Otherwise, he alone can't defeat Dong Qin and his gang with his troops under the governor's office.
He had taken Xue Muyun in and asked him to serve as Sima in his governor's office, as a reward for sending back the body of his only son's biological mother for thousands of miles.
In the past few days, he invited all the Buddhist monks from Xiangping City, and the shamans of the Khitan tribe to build a temple for his concubines, so he was naturally depressed.
Wang Xuanzhi was secretly happy when he learned about this - he also learned about the incident in Hebei. Like Liu Kenu, he was also ready to raise an army anyway, but he knew that An Lushan's elite was powerful, so he was still very nervous at first because Li Huaide's strength has become increasingly stronger in recent years, which has had a vague impact on his status.
If Liu Kenu and Dong Qin's affairs were brought to him completely, his strength would rise to another level (later Wang Xuanzhi poisoned Liu Kenu, but historical records did not state the reason, and it was probably for this matter).
As for whether the rebellion is true, it depends on the specific situation. The rebels have captured Luoyang, and it is still unknown who will win. In the chaos, anyone may become the next person admired by the people. This is what Wang Xuanzhi cares about, otherwise he would not have killed Liu Kenu, who had already been corrected.
After several days of continuous meals, Li Huaide fell ill suddenly.
At this moment, he received news that was very excited to him.
Sun Xiurong’s messenger has arrived!
It was Su Xijie who came.
"Where is Dalang?"
After seeing Su Xijie, Li Huaide suddenly got up from the bed and grabbed him despite his excessive food and food for many days.
"Don't panic"
Su Xijie helped him and lay down again.
After seeing Su Xijie's almost exactly the same iconic smile as Sun Xiurong, Li Huaide finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if his condition had improved a lot.
"Such big happened in the Tang Dynasty. How could anyone like Dalang, who is the best at seizing opportunities not appear?"
"Governor, you are not an outsider. Let me tell you the truth. A year ago, our army's Suye Camp had already concealed the truth and successfully arrived in Chicheng. General Bai also came in person."
"As for the Protectorate, he has his own plan and has not told me. However, before I left, he said that at the right time, he would bring at least five camps along the Mobei Trading Road. You don't know. After ten years of separation, the Protectorate has already had fifty camps under him. There are three camps around him, and two camps can be drawn nearby."
"The five camps of the Shattered Ye Army, plus General Bai's camp, are enough to deal with matters of big and small."
"Dalang's purpose..."
Although he was ill, he felt that it was inappropriate as soon as he spoke. How could Dalang say such a big thing easily?
"Sorry, I don't know either, but since I came here with six camps, I must do a big thing. At present, Hebei and Henan are in chaos in the Tang Dynasty. With the spirit of the Great Protector, I naturally have to do it. As for where I look, I don't know."
"That......"
"Oh, by the way, the Protector sent me to Xiangping, so of course there was something wrong."
......
An Lushan indeed fulfilled his promise.
At present, he was terminally ill, his eyes were blind, and he had to carry people to go in and out. How could he have great ambitions to sweep the world? So, after occupying Henan, the Hanjia Cang, Luokou Cang and Taiyuan Cang, which contained 60% of the Tang Dynasty's treasury, were transported to Youzhou as the Yellow River was frozen. In addition, the property and children's jade and silk plundered in Kaifeng, Luoyang and Shaanxi County were transported to Youzhou through the intersection of the North and South Grand Canals at the time of its most majestic army, and the Liyang line was transported to Youzhou through the Baima, the intersection of the North and South Grand Canal.
At this time, because Gao Xiuyan from Datong restrained Guo Ziyi of Shuofang Army, and the Hedong Jiedushi was killed by the strange soldiers sent by An Lushan not long ago, it was a time of fear. Before Li Guangbi arrived, he did not have the courage to go east to Taihang Mountain to harass the rear of the rebels.
What's more, at this time, Shi Siming had already taken the elite Silver Sad Khitan straight north.
The silver-sad Khitan under An Lushan was his most powerful force, no doubt more elite than the Yiluohe, which was composed of Tongluo cavalry under Li Guiren!
This Khitan team is all cavalry, but it can also be fought in infantry. Although Shi Siming only brought 5,000 people, he stabilized the situation in Hebei in a very short time.
When Li Guangbi took over Hedong's defense and went east to challenge him, he was no match for him at all.
Changping.
After An Lushan left Youzhou with his army, in addition to arranging Jia Xun to guard Youzhou City (Fanyang City), he also asked his confidant general Xiang Runrong to guard Changping, and another confidant general Niu Tingjie to guard Weizhou, Zhuozhou, Gu'an, Yongnu and other places south of Youzhou City.
There are other considerations to let Xiang Runrong guard Changping.
Changping was sandwiched between Guizhou and Tanzhou. At this time, the governor of Guizhou and the envoy of the Qing Yi army was Li Riyue who surrendered after An Lushan's troops, while the governor of Tanzhou and the envoy of the mighty army was Nan Jiyun's old favorite Lei Wanchun. Both of them were extremely brave, but they were not the people who had always followed An Lushan.
After An Lushan led his army south, he naturally would not only bring the men from Youzhou City. The military towns under the command of the Jiedushi Fanyang will naturally draw some, such as the Qingyi Army and the mighty army originally had tens of thousands of troops, but at this time there were only three thousand left, and all the cavalry were transferred to Changping.
So, Xiang Runrong guarded Changping with a thousand cavalry, not only firmly guarding the important roads north of Youzhou City, but also surveillance of Guizhou and Tanzhou nearby.
As for the defense of Guizhou and Tanzhou, during the period when Sun Xiurong left, An Lushan naturally went north to threaten and induce people, allowing the Xi tribe, which borders Youzhou, to continue to go south to eat. In other words, after An Lushan served as the governor of the three towns, he implemented an enhanced version of "catching life" near the border, which made Yang Shouzhong of the Xi tribe and Yelu Nieli of the Khitan helpless.
In addition, the overall acceptance of the anger of the people was allowed to eat in Guizhou. Only his five thousand Khitans had the source and the possibility of continuous replenishment.
Of course, with An Lushan's ability, he naturally knew the conflict between the Khitans and the Bohai people in the north. He sowed the disagreement from it, and smiled and did a lot of troubles under his feet. Therefore, although he knew that the Tang Dynasty was now in civil strife, these two families did not go south to take advantage of the situation. In addition to An Lushan still having certain defensive forces in various places, the main reason was that these two families began to fight again.
Back in Xiangping, when Su Xijie asked about the situation in the north, Li Huaide struggled and said, "Before An Lushan's uprising, he claimed that he would open a special case for the Bohai Kingdom in the domestic city where the Anton Protectorate was affiliated, and to reduce the frequency of transactions in the Liucheng Deal, which naturally made the Khitans unhappy."
(Domestic City, Ji'an City, Ji'an City, later generations)
"An Lushan also claimed that he would apply to the court to set up a court in Fuyu City, near Fuyu City, and now he is temporarily under the jurisdiction of the Bohai people. However, like the Tang Dynasty, it is in a form of restraint. After learning about it, the Khitans sent troops to conquer the place and gradually advance to Sumoshui."
(Fuyu City, Siping City, Sumoshui, the second Songhua River in later generations, namely Jilin City, Changchun City, Siping City)
"The people of Bohai will naturally not do it. Not long ago, Daqinmao sent his brother, Dayixin, the prince of Yulou, to lead troops to the expedition, and confronted Yelu Nieli's son Yelu Piede in the Sumoshui area."
(The Prince of Yulou was the fief established after Daqinmao conquered the later generations of Xingkai Lake and west of Xihote Mountain, which was the middle and upper reaches of the Ussuri River, and his brother Dayixin was appointed as the Prince of the Prince. At that time, this place belonged to a Yulou tribe of the Heishui Mohe people, and was actually the Jurchens of the East China Sea in later generations)
