When Feng Dao was receiving the order, the wat tablet in his hand also fell to the ground inexplicably.
All the signs give people a very strange and ominous feeling.
Liu Yun left his trusted generals Gong Tingmei and Yang Wen to stay in Xuzhou, and then set out for Bianzhou surrounded by Feng Dao and others. The honor guards and security troops along the way were exactly the same as the emperor's patrol, grand and majestic. Along the way, people knelt on the roadside and shouted long live the mountains.
In fact, this is a trick played by Guo Wei. The real purpose of the prosperity tape festival is to delay time. Although Guo Wei controlled the imperial court, he had not yet received sufficient support from the army. Moreover, this control of the imperial court was based on the premise that the imperial court had no owner. Once Liu Yun entered Bianzhou and legitimately ascended the throne of emperor, Guo Wei would really have lost all his previous efforts.
Liu Yun was not unaware of the urgency of the situation. In his view, the top priority was to control the army and win the support of the local army. As for the control of the imperial court, as long as he entered Bianzhou and ascended the throne in front of Liu Chengyou's spirit, all problems would be solved.
It has to be said that the heroes see the same thing. But Liu Yun obviously lacked understanding of the army and did not fully understand the urgency of time. He had picked up the throne for free, but he still behaved like an emperor and moved slowly towards Bianzhou; as for the fight for the army, he was even more naive.
Liu Yun sent someone to send a condolence edict to the frontline soldiers, "Hello, comrades, you have worked hard, comrades!" He wanted to use this to establish a good image of the new emperor for the army, and he wanted to tell everyone tactfully: Don't worry, I will not pursue it. You forced the late Emperor to commit his sins, so stay with me from now on.
He didn't expect that this move would backfire.
3. God’s will and man’s will
Guo Wei led the elite armed forces of the empire and slowly headed north under the pretext of going north to resist the Khitans. After finally arriving at Huazhou on the south bank of the Yellow River, they ordered the garrison to rest and reorganize, but were reluctant to cross the river.
For Guo Wei, the Yellow River in front of him is like the Wangchuan River, and Huazhou is his Wangxiang Tower.
His team urgently provided extra lessons to the army. During the rest period of the garrison, apart from sewing shoes and socks and drying bedding, the only spare time activities of the soldiers was gossiping about the supernatural events that happened to the commander-in-chief Guo Wei:
It is said that when Guo Wei was born, "the room was illuminated by red light, and there was a sound like coals cracking, and sparks bursting out." It's also possible that the midwife accidentally kicked over the brazier. Source: Guo Wei himself;
It is said that when Guo Wei was in the army, he was taking a nap on a lazy and sunny afternoon. As a result, he was found to have a five-color snake going in and out of his nostrils. Source: Chai (Guo Wei’s wife);
It is said that when Guo Wei was in Taiyuan, a nun named Guo was very surprised after seeing Guo Wei. He secretly told Guo Wei's good friend and teacher Li Qiong that Guo Wei was a god who came to the world and should be the master of the world. Source: Li Qiong (Guo Wei’s mentor);
It is said that Guo Wei joined the army and was temporarily stationed in a certain ancestral hall. In the middle of the night, the ancestral hall suddenly collapsed. Except for Guo Wei, all the soldiers who lived with him were killed, but Guo Wei was unscathed. Source: Unknown, probably Comrade Guo Wei who does not want to be named;
It is said that when Guo Wei was Liu Zhiyuan's bodyguard, Mabudu Yuhou, he was a neighbor of a beautiful woman named Wu. However, this beautiful woman got into trouble with something unclean. It is commonly known as being possessed by the people. Its specific symptoms It was Kuangbiao who used foul language and threw bricks. No matter who passed by her door, she would spit out fragrance and throw bricks and tiles, so that "no neighbor dared to pass the Wu family's house."
However, when Guo Wei passed by her door, she immediately behaved herself, neither swearing nor throwing stones. People were curious and thought she didn't see it, so they asked Guo Wei to make an encore. Guo Wei then walked swaggeringly in front of her door once, twice, three times... Miss Wu just refused to get sick.
So someone had the courage to shout to the "host" in her body: "Aren't you a monster? Why are you beating and scolding others when they come? Why are you giving up when Guo Wei comes?"
The "host" borrowed the words of Miss Wu and said: "I have to admit it. He is different from you. He is the reincarnation of a god! (That master)" So the soldiers all respected Guo Wei.

It is said that when Guo Wei launched an all-out general attack on Li Shouzhen in Hezhong, the northwest wind was raging, and a strong sandstorm blew up on the battlefield, covering the sky and the sun, and making the day look like night. Guo Wei personally burned incense and prayed in Hebo Temple. Just after he finished praying, the strong wind stopped immediately.
It is said that when Guo Wei launched the general offensive (in May), the river god gave him a dream, saying that although I helped you stop the sandstorm, don't be too anxious. In late July, the god will help you eliminate Li Shouzhen. As a result, on July 21, Hezhong City was captured, and Li Shouzhen and his family set themselves on fire. After Guo Wei entered the city, people in the city told him that they saw purple air hovering over Guo Wei's military camp, like a pavilion and a canopy.
It is said that Liu Chengyou asked Guo Wei to go out of Weizhou to patrol the border. After Guo Wei came to Weizhou, on a long lonely night with no intention of sleeping, he was sitting alone in a mountain pavilion. Suddenly, a burst of yellow gas rose into the sky and floated into the sky. Guo Wei looked up and saw that under the yellow cloud The group saw strange celestial phenomena, "Ziwei and Wenchang were in front of their eyes."
Later, Guo Wei reported the matter to the official in charge of astronomy and horoscopes, saying that aside from the meaning of the stars, how could I see the stars in the house through the roof?
This is a question for free, and the answer is in the question. "Sitting in front of the thoroughfare, nothing can separate you. This is the most precious auspiciousness!"
The next day, purple gas suddenly rose from the dragon head on top of the flagpole in Guo Wei's yard, hovering over the headquarters building for three consecutive days.

For more than ten days, under the guidance of Guo Wei's confidants, these strange and strange things, including old sesame seeds and rotten millet, spread throughout the army. To the north, the Khitans were very close to each other, but the soldiers were all talking about "Approaching Science".
"God's will" is alive and well, but what about "man's wishes"?
Liu Yun delivered it himself.
The condolence edict was delivered, and all the soldiers should have accepted the edict to express gratitude. However, a dangerous scene occurred: none of the soldiers knelt down to accept the edict. They all looked left and right, "looking at each other or not", and even whispered to each other, "We have captured The capital, the first to kill the late emperor, and the last to plunder the capital. Each of us counts one by one. They are all guilty of deceiving the emperor and being treasonous. The starting price is to destroy the nine tribes. If the man named Liu is still allowed to be the emperor, how can he be spared? us?"
When these words reached Guo Wei's ears, Guo Wei was shocked, "What do these people want to do?" They were talking nonsense, so cute. So we ordered to march to the north quickly. We are an army loyal to the emperor. We are here to protect our country and expel the barbarians. Stop thinking nonsense and go and die!
