The Snowy Path of the Heroic Blade Chapter 56: Qiu Chou Sharen are even more murderous
Yudilong was born in Beiliang. Even if I haven't heard of rumors and anecdotes, no matter how lonely and ignorant, I have heard people mention that there are many gods and real people living on Wudang Mountain. Therefore, this time he followed Master's mountain climbing, he was particularly pious. Every time he met a Taoist priest on the mountain, whether he was young or old, he must have a ritual to stop walking. This made those Wudang Taoists who recognized Xu Fengnian's identity very frightened. Xu Fengnian did not stop the child seriously. This heart of innocence may be the cornerstone of Yu Dilong's brave and diligent journey in the martial arts in the future. A newborn calf is not afraid of any tiger. It is lucky to be able to live once, and will never be a tiger again. For the rest of his life. When Xu Fengnian was climbing the mountain, he whispered to Yu Dilong: “If you walk alone in the rivers and lakes, if you can be fearless, there are two types. Others. There are many such people, and there are many deaths. The other is that regardless of their own understanding or the predecessors' advice, they already know the sinisterness of the world, but have attachments and have a clear conscience. There are relatively few such people, but they may not die. Shao. Jianghu is such a place. I don’t recognize you as a good or bad person. If you have bad water and bad luck, you can easily drown as long as you get the same. In just a few years, the master who died in Master’s hands, later Most of them."
"Your junior sister Wang Sheng learned sword, and she will never change it in her life. Since ancient times, there have been conflicts between spirit and art in sword practice. The one who speaks the most thoroughly and sees the most clearly, that person I used to practice Taoism on this mountain. The reason why Wang Sheng was not allowed to practice swords on the mountain was because she was afraid that she was dark under the light and she was in the mountain. Instead, she could not see the mountain, so she simply asked her to go far to see the scenery. High, if you continue to pull out the seedlings to encourage growth, you may be embroidered pillows like the Sovereign of Spring Paste Caotang in the future."
"Your junior, Lu Yun, is very energetic, but he is also very hostile. Just by going to the border to join the army and killing people, he is skilled with swordsmanship, but the intent of the sword will only kill and lower, and the road of martial arts will become narrower and narrower. He has Gu Jiantang’s talent, but without Gu Jiantang’s vision, he will definitely not be able to practice superb swordsmanship. That’s why he went to the Yulong Gang to practice and hone for a few years. The world is like a mirror. It is equivalent to rubbing the mirror one more time. You should have your own heart. The heart is not his heart. You must be a sensible person before you can use the sword. The sword is a single-edged sword. I don’t know, I will die on my own knife sooner or later."
"As for you, you are still young, so you might as well learn from the guy named Hong Xixiang on the mountain. Don't worry, you don't have to force yourself to go wherever you go. I'm the three of you, who can be popular Things, Lu Yunchang is rushing to do things, it is not your turn for the moment. He is happy to take your burden and carry it. In the world, except for the prince who is destined to sit on the dragon chair in the future, no one has to do anything. There is something to do. Under the premise of being able to protect yourself, you can live whatever you want, just to be happy. Among the three, Wang Sheng is a little bit different, because she practices swords, and I put on Master’s score out of selfishness. Putting a heavy burden on her. I also want to make it clear to you on this point. You must not resent Wang Sheng for this."
Following Xu Fengnian on the steps, Yu Dilong waved his hand quickly and said: "Master, I can't be a disciple. I can't wait for my junior sister to practice the most powerful swordsmanship, which is better than me."
Xu Fengnian stopped and looked back at Yu Dilong. The child blushed slightly when he was staring at him. Xu Fengnian jokingly said: "You have a good eye, let alone anything else, this has already been passed on by the master. "
The child's physique was able to get rid of his master Xu Fengnian for thousands of miles at the early and complete resuscitation. At this time, he was exposed to his ignorance, scratching his head and pretending to be stupid. Xu Fengnian looked into the distance and whispered softly: "In case the three of you will have great prospects in the future, remember two things. There should be a life and death battle between Wang Sheng and Lu Yunchang. You don't have to stop them from competing, but I hope you don’t kill Lu Yunchang in a rage. Also, you don’t just learn from Master’s innocence, but you don’t learn Master’s innocence and injustice. Smart people move the true feelings. Death is not as good as death. No matter how big or small it is, no one is comfortable. You look at Cao Changqing Xuanyuan Jingcheng, and then look back at the uncaring Deng Tai A..."
Xu Fengnian stopped talking when he was halfway through, and Yu Dilong heard half of it. After waiting for a long time, he didn't wait until the next step. He looked up at this self-proclaimed low-hearted master. After Xu Fengnian slowly recovered, he rubbed the head of the dragon and asked with a smile: "Do you think it will be your wife?"
Yudilong was stunned for a moment, and quickly said decisively: "Pei Nanwei!"
Xu Feng’s Nianqu pointed out that he tapped on the child’s forehead, “It’s good to help the relatives or not to deal with them, but those who can make big things are more of a calm temperament. Master has suffered a lot before, so you should take warning. "
Yu Dilong sighed, his entire face wrinkled, and complained: "Master, you have said so many great things today, I can't eat it all at once."
Xu Fengnian smiled and said that being able to eat is a blessing, but then he did not talk to his apprentice any more, and the two silently climbed the steps together. Under the secret instruction of Qingliang Mountain, the local government donated several huge sums of silver to Wudang Mountain, and also contributed a lot of manpower to help build a series of magnificent or ingenious buildings on the mountain, such as Xuanwu Hall, Guanxing Pavilion, and Falun Bureau. In a beautiful and clean place on the mountainside, an academy was built. The Taoist fairy music is ethereal, intertwined with the sound of books, and complement each other. Some of the dilapidated and old buildings that were unable to repair in Wudang Mountain have also been given a new look. The incense on the mountain has become more and more vigorous, and with the unabashed support of the new Liangwang, the pilgrims are mortal and immortal in Wudang Mountain. It's hard to tell whether it has risen or not, but the human flavor and fireworks are indeed much more than before. On the fifteenth day of the lunar new year, tourists are like weaving and incense is flourishing, and they can almost compete with Dragon Tiger Mountain.
After Xu Fengnian met Chen You, an old man in charge of the commandments, he lived by the Xixiang Pool where he was practicing swordsmanship. He did not deliberately restrain the dragon, leaving his children to wander around the mountains. Xu Fengnian spent most of the time there. Sitting quietly on the huge boulder in the lake, finally stopped the signs of the collapse of the body's energy for thousands of miles, and the "water surface of the pond" slowly rose. During this period, there were constantly post riders sending the relatively important red copy of Wutongyuan to the mountain. Xu Fengnian would read every official document carefully in his leisure time. Except for the post ride to convey important affairs of government, the frontier military secret matter was handed over. The experienced spies from Fushuifang traveled from the border to Wudang Mountain. The spies were mixed with some Xinna’s masters. They have been screened by Chu Lushan, the boss of the spies. It is unrealistic for these people to go to the battlefield to fight to death. It is said that doing this kind of leisurely work will still make people rush to choose Jianghu people to be elite postmen. This is one of the suggestions made by Wang Luting, who took over the Jinli Weaving Bureau from Li Xifeng. In addition, The Jinlu Weaving Bureau, located in Lingzhou, has set up weaving divisions in the other three prefectures. It cannot personally participate in local officials’ governance, anti-theft and enrollment, but can help Qingliangshan to secretly report and supervise various affairs. At the same time, it is here in Wangluting. Under Ren’s proposal, Liangling Yousanzhou has a total of more than 20 academies. Under the leadership of three literary leaders, three “Queiwens” of unlimited genres are selected every month. Official body, there is an interesting thing here. The literary magnate in Liangzhou who is in charge of reviewing articles is not someone else, but Wang Chudong who wrote "The First Snow". However, the essays actually handed over to Xu Fengnian are more of those “discarded articles” that point to current politics. Although many of the writings are biased or even rebellious, these scholars quietly put their names on the archives of Wutong Academy. I didn't know that many of the angry works they had thrown into the wastebasket, and those crumpled manuscripts, would appear on the desks of Qingliangshan Wutongyuan in a few days.
The hut where Xu Fengnian lived temporarily was almost always lit at night.
One late night of stormy thunder and lightning, after Xu Fengnian read all the Beiliang spy and Liyang Mansion newspapers he sent, he singled out three copies and spread them on the table. A copy from Huaiyangguan, where the frontier protective mansion is located, was an autograph of Chu Lushan, and all said the words as his own, but Chu Lushan's handwriting was very beautiful and graceful, and it was simply a woman's handwriting, and it could not be linked to his bloated body shape. The secret letter reported on the general process of Liuzhou’s assimilation into the army. After the relaxation of the border ban on Beiliang Road, there was a wave of peaks in the immigration of refugees. In one month, the number of people crossing the border reached 4,000, but very few chose to enter the Beiliang army. It is almost negligible, but when the news came out after Xu Fengnian, the Northern Liang King, killed Wang Xianzhi, with the help of the new Liuzhou governor Yang Guangdou, a large crowd finally ushered in. In just a decade, 6,000 people took the initiative. Asked to go to the border to join the army.
Although the continuous smoke of gunpowder in the two decades of the Spring and Autumn has long proved that there has never been a long-lived general of 10,000 enemies, it is completely different for an army to have tens of thousands of enemies. Xu Fengnian, Chu Lushan, Yuan Zuozong and others don’t think that the sturdy refugees can form an army in Liuzhou, let alone believe that they can withstand the impact of the Beimang cavalry, hundreds of thousands of refugees, indeed everyone can fight, just a mature army. Wu, the military spirit is still there after a battle loss of one to two percent. These refugees seem to be huge in number. If they really fought a battle, they would be vulnerable to a powerful enemy, and maybe they would disperse the original formation of Beiliang. Therefore, the best situation is to disperse these refugees and send them to the frontier army, and then send a part of the elite exchanges from Beiliang to Liuzhou, as the mainstay of Liuzhou's future resistance against Beimang iron cavalry going south. It's just that this kind of thing cannot be forced. Although the refugees can live without worrying about food and clothing after joining the army, it is after all a job to tie their heads to their waistbands. No one is stupid.
Xu Fengnian laughed at himself: "The number one name in the world is still very useful."
The secret letter also mentions the various frictions between the refugees and the old soldiers after joining the army, and even some people were unbearable and murdered in anger, almost making a mutiny. In the letter, Chu Lushan said that as long as the refugees participated in it, they were all put to death.
Xu Fengnian sighed. Although those refugees who survived the dead were brave and vigorous, but how dare they voluntarily make trouble in the Northern Liang Army, it is natural that the frontier soldiers who looked down on the refugees in their bones had a radical move first. It can be said that the death of these refugees is extremely unjustified. But Xu Fengnian didn't want to change Chu Lushan's decision. There is no rule and no radius. In the barracks, the old soldiers bullied the new soldiers. This is a bad habit that any leading general cannot eradicate. The old soldiers at the border bullying the refugees and the new soldiers must be punished. However, if the new peasants violate the ban, they must be killed. Refugees who want to have a bright future have only one chance, and that is to fight in battle in the future, win the sincere respect of the old pawn, and regard them as brothers. Other than that, there is no second way to go.
The second one is from Wutongyuan. Liyang vigorously exterminates the Buddha, and there are as many displaced monks as crucian carp who crossed the river. The mud and sand are inevitable. Naturally, everyone will not be an eminent monk who is dedicated to the Buddha and does not attract the dust. The reason for cultivating Buddha is that he has never become a Buddha. Among them, there are many famous monks who are accustomed to pampering themselves. They ask the government for the exemption of taxation for the "temple-given land" through various channels, nominally praying for Xu Fengnian, the king of the Northern Liang Dynasty who built a temple. There was a dispute in the Wutongyuan. The principal Xu Weixiong's opinion was that not only could he not open the mouth, he also ordered the local government to severely reprimand and expel these monks from the country. Lu Chengyan meant to appease the secretly and to pay attention, not to agree, and to procrastinate. That is, there is no need to tear the skin.
Xu Fengnian rubbed his temples and said with a wry smile: "A thundering technique and a bodhisattva heart seem to be correct. Just treat it as if you haven't seen this thing."
The third one is very interesting. It comes from Liyang. There are a lot of turmoil in the middle, and finally you can enter Beiliang. In addition to the silver can make the ghost drag, there is no small luck. There is a Weijiao Lake between Guangling Road and Nanjing Ji. It is an artificial lake after Liyang dominates the world. It is said to be used to suppress the dragon gas left behind by the Western Chu. The yellow books created every five years by the states of the special treasury dynasty recorded the household registration, arable land, and revenues of various places in Liyang. However, the world does not know that apart from the yellow book of the head of the Ministry of Households in Beijing, there is another more obscure file. Except for the first auxiliary of the dynasty, not to mention the yamen of the various ministries, even the two chief officials of the Ministry of Science and Technology cannot read it. That is the register of the army everywhere. This stems from the fact that when the first emperor ordered the compilation of the "Management of the Ministries", he must not only put forward the accurate amount of cultivated land in the world, but also preserve military secrets, so he took a compromise method and linked the yellow records of the Tuntian to many ministries and states. In the county, Guangling Road is the granary of the world, and it is still hidden, but the number of fields in the two liao provinces is surprisingly much. This is undoubtedly the reason for the hanging of this book. Lianghou Zhao Siqi asked for the roster, and the royal clan impeached a copy according to the rule. After realizing that Liu Mao had pleaded guilty one after another, he still failed to keep the official hat of the right minister and was demoted to the miasma of Yancao Road. In the wild and wild land, he eventually died in his post.
This time it was affected by the restoration of the Western Chu, and Mijiao Lake began to move northward on a large scale. There are many original copies of this middle volume, but there are many more copies of the program for no reason, most of which flow into the territory of Guangling Road. Some of them were scattered among the people, and the spies of the North Liang who were planted in the territory bought and grabbed half of them from a group of people in the world, and got a piece of the pie.
The numbers in the yellow book are dead, but those who are interested can see many living things.
It just so happened that Xu Fengnian and Fushuifang were about to come with a large number of spies about Guangling Daojun Town over the years. Xu Fengnian knew that the emperor of the Zhao family had appointed Sun Xiji, the old lady of Western Chu, as the economic officer. In order to catch all turtles and turtles in the urn, Xu Fengnian can be sure of the truth that has been carefully examined. Those garrison generals who shouted at the imperial court's lack of salary on their mouths and pawns were all righteous and confident, saying that the imperial court was too partial. In fact, the two Liao defense lines were nothing more than their own pockets. Under Zhang Julu and Wang Xionggui, the Hubu Shangshu who was very good at "turning stones into gold", the court never treated the troops stationed in the territory. It is not surprising that the local garrisons are clamoring hard and shouting that the children who will have milk to eat are not surprising, but in Xu Fengnian's view, the food of the masters of Guangling Road is really far from a shocking state. But this is also the result of Zhang Julu's self-reliance. It was he who created the situation of "the southerners go north as ministers and the northerners go south as generals". Although this move separated the two giant groups in Jiangnan and Beidi from their respective localities, but After that group of northern generals arrived at Guangling Road, they themselves had neighboring families close to the land of Zhao’s Longxing as their backers. These warriors who relied on their father’s generation to lay down the land, could they feel better? Guangling Road is again a place where the imperial court takes the lead to squeeze, and they will be a little bit jealous? After more than ten years, almost every position in power, ranging from two sessions to four sessions, took turns to take turns to search for the villagers, who is in charge of the people's livelihood and public opinion in the country?
Xu Feng said in a young voice: "It's too late."
Xu Fengnian got up and walked to a wall. On the wall was a picture of the geographical situation of the old Chu country and the entire southern part of Gyeonggi.
If the name is not correct, the words will not go well, and the words will not be well.
Now Liyang and Xichu are both considered righteous. The former sits on the country and seeks to quell the difficulties and put down the rebellion. The latter plays the banner of the orthodox of the Central Plains. This is not two hundred years after the country's subjugation, but only twenty years later. When the country was destroyed, even historians believed that "the emperor's courtiers and the common people", the collapse of the Western Chu, was even more painfully regarded by countless scholars as "the land of Shenzhou."
Xu Fengnian looked at the map, which is different from the general territorial map. The geography of mountains and rivers and the military town of Guanai on the map are extremely detailed. As long as they can be used for soldiers, there is no missing, and the number of places in each place And private households are clearly marked, and there are often temporary changes.
On this map, there is a very hidden movement and silence. What is still is the soldiers and horses of King Jingnan, and the infantry led by Lu Shengxiang and Yang Shenxing. The cavalry led by 40,000 elites and Yan Zhenchun mostly consisted of 30,000 horses.
Youlu Pass, where Lu Shengxiang is located, is said to be difficult to issue military orders.
Yang Shenxing and Chen Bing were in the Xiyu area, staring at him. The Spring and Autumn veteran was behind his ass, but he followed a large group of children from the royal family who were waiting to be fed. There are many mountains in West Henan, mixed with many rivers, many east-west channels and horizontal valleys. It is neither a soldier’s death place nor a solitary place, and the same air is connected.
The Dongyu Plain where Yan Zhenchun is located. The terrain is wide and wide, and although there is no danger to prove, it has been a thoroughfare convenient for cavalry to drive troops since ancient times. If Yan Zhenchun had very little contact with King Guimendi of the capital, in fact, more people wanted to join General Yan Lao in order to gain military merit earlier and more. Anyway, the remnants of Xichu can be pinched to death with a snap of their fingers. When the time comes, two-legged pawns, where is there a cavalry on horseback running fast?
The three soldiers and horses stayed on hold for the time being, but according to the latest espionage, Xichu’s combat power has been surging under the current. Except for the quieter south, the forces of the old capital have spread out, especially along the northern line. , Even more uncertain, at a glance, it looks like a headless fly flying around, full of obvious flaws.
Xu Fengnian squinted at the map to speculate on Cao Changqing, the Confucian general who failed to shine in the Spring and Autumn Period. Xu Fengnian’s own Beiliang, although he is just a defender after his father’s generation has taken down the existing world, he still knows the importance of ambushes. The thousands of soldiers who have been lurking for many years in Qingcheng Mountain and the two horse thieves on the border are like this. The same applies to the cavalry deployed in the Western Regions to drive northward. In the middle of a battle, it also requires the precise investment of follow-up troops. This is why the heavy cavalry can make a final decision on the battlefield. In the past few years, there have been many thieves circling across the border in the old West Chu country. The soldiers of Guangling King Zhao Yi can maintain relatively high combat effectiveness, and the contribution of these training objects is indispensable. This made Zhao Yi not pay attention to Zhao Bing, the king of Yanchi, and clamored that he could challenge the Beiliang Iron Cavalry. Among the several feudal vassals, Zhao Suikong, the king of Jiaodong, had the geographical advantage of being in the frontier. However, under the double suppression of the court and Gu Jiantang, he was unable to confront Beimang head-on, and his combat power had been declining over the years.
Xu Fengnian is looking for the location of Cao Changqing's elite soldiers. He believes that the military leaders in Tai'an City are also staring.
The great Chu who was aspiring to the world back then, in addition to the soldier saint Jiang Baikui, the pinnacle of the sea, more importantly, he had countless good generals and the 120,000 euphorbia with the pinnacle of infantry strength, and he was fed by countless gold and silver. The huge cavalry, Qingqi and heavy cavalry are invincible.
Now that the Euphorbias of Xichu have disappeared, the new heavy cavalry has not yet surfaced. At this time, the troops displayed on this map are mainly the 20,000 "rebels" who are in charge of garrisoning the old capital of Xichu. In addition, there are 80,000 horses accumulated in various military towns and passes. Those migrant bandits buried everywhere are conservatively estimated to be no less than 30,000, and their combat power will be far above 80,000, which is equal to 20,000 pro-army troops. . But the war between the two countries, the foundation supported by popular popularity and national strength, is very important. If you have prestige, you will have a source of troops. The people are willing to fight for it and have the financial resources to not lose in the configuration. Two troops are roughly equal. The horse, the number of weapons, and the quality of the armor are all enough to determine the victory or defeat, unless it is a fatal faint order from a general. But the problem is that almost no one can be sure whether there are thousands or tens of thousands of Xichu survivors who will die for the Jiang character.
Xu Fengnian's vision shifted to the north. There was Gu Jiantang's 300,000 frontier army, the true elite of the Liyang Dynasty.
Xu Fengnian slowly retracted his gaze, and turned his head to cast his head on the territory of the Nanzhao contiguous Xishu.
The two most skilled soldiers in the Liyang dynasty today, one has nothing to do, dare not go north, and cannot go south. The other one had nothing to look for, and he led the soldiers to the south under the excuse of the Huangmu chaos. I heard that he only brought eight hundred soldiers.
Xu Fengnian sat back at the table, closing his eyes and concentrating.
There is no picture of Liangmang confrontation situation hanging in the room, because there is no need to look at it, it is all inscribed in his mind, and it is not necessary for him, the king of the Northern Liang, to do his best in frontier military affairs. The reason is very simple.
Almost two decades of hard work~IndoMTL.com~Beiliang border defense has been done to the extreme.
If Beimang only had 400,000 soldiers and horses going south in the Southern Dynasty.
Northern Liang ate it unceremoniously.
If the North Mang invades the country to the south.
It's nothing more than a deadly battle.
Of course, it can also be understood as waiting to die, and it sounds better, that is, the jade and the stone are burned.
Xu Fengnian walked out of the house and came to the side of the Xixiang Pool. The path was paved with pebbles in the pool, tightly and orderly. After the impact of rain and pool water year after year, the pebbles with few edges and corners became brighter and cleaner. Smooth, Xu Fengnian took off his boots and carried them in his hands, and walked slowly on the gravel road. A cool but not cold comfort penetrated into the soles of the feet.
Xu Fengnian jumped onto the huge bluestone, lay down and looked at the stars, closing his eyes.
I don’t know how many people on Guangling Road will survive this autumn?
How many tens of thousands of Northern Liang people will not survive the next fall?
