Early morning on April 29th, the first year of Dabao!
Wei Yi, the general of the Han Dynasty in the south of Lingnan, led 600 soldiers to capture the city of Yuzhou.
Li Fengxiao, the governor of Yuzhou at that time, was a close confidant of Meng Renzhi, the younger brother of Meng Chang, the son of Meng Zhixiang, the lord of Shu. He happened to be on business in Chengdu, and he escaped the disaster in ignorance.
Yuzhou defense envoy Zhao Lang heard that there was an army entering the city and led his troops to resist strongly. However, he had limited soldiers. In addition, Yuzhou had been at peace for a long time, and the city gates were empty and unprepared for war. By the time Zhao Lang found out, several city gates had been controlled, and Zhao Lang himself was captured at his house.
Then many soldiers in Yuzhou rebelled and surrendered, making the Shu army often choose to surrender or be vulnerable to a blow under Wei Yiren's soldiers. After Zhao Lang himself was captured alive by the Han soldiers, the rest of the commanding and first-level generals either surrendered or were executed.
In half a day, the entire city of Yuzhou changed hands, and Wei Yi people, in the name of the Wenjun Sect, responded to the battle between Zizhou and Suizhou and publicly hung the flag of the Wenjun Sect on the top of Yuzhou City. For the first time, the Han army officially acquired a state in Shu in a completely new way.
Then news came from various states and counties that either they had been wiped out by the soldiers who had been sent by the Han Dynasty to take charge of various places, or they had changed their banners and surrendered. In the name of equal education, everyone openly recruited warriors from various prefectures and counties to enrich their own teams.
That night, the Han Dynasty appointed Yang Huai, the military commander in Sichuan, to enter the city. He was also accompanied by Wang Xun, the commander of Yuzhou Congmazhi who was captured together, and more than a thousand Yuzhou troops who had already submitted.
The Han army, which adheres to the principle of not disturbing the people, comforts the people in Yuzhou City and calls on all personnel in Yuzhou to fully invest in the reorganization and reconstruction of Yuzhou. For the first time, Yang Huai carried out a comprehensive reconstruction of Yuzhou in the name of the supreme commander of the Han Dynasty and the protector of the leftist teachings of the average religion.
Governor's Mansion!
Bright all night long!
Its daybreak! Yang Huai sat in high spirits in the lobby of the Governor's Mansion, next to Wang Lu who stood with his hands behind his back. On the right is Wei Yiren, who is dressed in military uniform. He has a thin appearance but is full of energy. He exudes an invisible murderous aura. Several years of conquests have made him truly full of majesty.
The first person on the left hand is Xiao Xu, Xiao Qilang, followed by Mr. Sun, Sun Qingyi, Fuling Military Academy Lieutenant Fu Wuyi, and next to him sits a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing civilian clothes, and then Banan County. Lieutenants Liu Biao, Li Yuan and Yang Huai entered Shu to assist Jin Shiqi.
On the right are Nu Jiao Luo Zong, Fuling County Wei Lin Qingdong, and two young generals wearing Shu army mail. Finally, there is the green-faced Jiao Shijia from Longtan Temple, and several other people who have made meritorious services this time. .
After talking all night, we were not too tired, but in high spirits! Next to them were several brothers who had come from Longtan Temple. They were pouring tea for everyone. The fragrant tea made everyone enjoy it.
Yang Huai did not use the original servants of the Governor's Mansion. All the people in the mansion were now imprisoned in a courtyard in the backyard. A group of officials, including Zhao Lang, were all imprisoned in the temporary dungeon of the Governor's Mansion, and were personally guarded by Yang Huai's personal guards. Yang Huai set an example and called on everyone to abide by military laws. These prisoners must undergo in-depth interrogation and there must be no mistakes.
"Guardian Yang, a certain family doesn't have much to say. As long as you give the order, the brothers of the certain family and Longtan Temple will follow you to the death!" Although Li Yuan was covered with injuries, Sun Qingyi had already treated him on the way to Yuzhou. He was injured, and even gave him a pill at all costs. After taking it, he felt full of energy and extremely relaxed. At this moment, everything is bandaged, and although his face is pale, he looks in good spirits.
When he arrived in Yuzhou, Li Yuan realized that the one he had been following was actually the Wenjian Cult, which was causing a lot of trouble in Shu. Moreover, Yang Huai is actually the left guardian of the Jianjing Cult. He is the first person among the leader and deputy leader! Even Xiao Xu, who is his brother-in-law, is also the leader of the Yuzhou branch of the average sect.
Li Yuan didn't know whether it was because of his real contribution or because they were looking at Xiao Xing's face that his seat here was actually higher than that of the officials in the Yuzhou government who he could only look up to in the past. Because among those present, Li Yuan knew that there were former officials from Yuzhou City.
After attending a one-night loyalty show and listening to Yang Huai's big plan and some subsequent basic arrangements for Yuzhou, Li Yuan naturally expressed his loyalty on behalf of Longtan Temple. To be precise, Li Yuan belonged to Xiao Xu's family, but after this bloody battle, Longtan Temple, which had no fighting ability in the first place, only had dozens of brothers left to fight.
Not to mention the usual killing of the rich and giving to the poor, which Hekankan relies on for survival, even in this place of Yuzhou, the power of Longtan Temple can be said to be nothing. It's just that Xiao Xu was used as a pawn by some combination of circumstances to contain a force in Yuzhou, allowing Wei Yiren's operation to be completed smoothly. Li Yuan knew this very well. At this moment, for the future of Longtan Temple, Li Yuan had no choice but to be the first to speak out.
Yang Huai looked at Li Yuan quietly, then suddenly took a deep breath, raised his fists to the sky, and said loudly: "This sect successfully regained Yuzhou this time, and the Longtan Temple led by Master Xiao was indispensable!" He looked at Xiao Zhuang and Sun Qingyi, seeing the cautious expressions on their faces, signaled: "I believe that the three Li brothers, who are the core force of Longtan Temple, are the great contributors to this incident. Therefore, I want to establish a team based on Longtan Temple." The team was named by the temple to commemorate this arduous and bloody battle and to comfort the heroes of Longtan Temple!"
"Thank you, Protector Yang!" The three brothers of Longtan Temple were trembling all over. They were so excited that they stood up almost at the same time. They thanked Yang Huai and expressed their sincere gratitude. At this time, there were tears in their eyes.
"Brothers, there is no need to be polite. All brothers who have sacrificed for our religion, our religion will never forget their achievements!" He first glanced at Wei Yiren, and when he saw Wei Yiren looking at him with a smile, letting him choose, he looked again He turned to the two armored generals next to Lin Qingdong on the right and said, "Generals He Bao and Lin Han took inventory of the arsenal last night. Now I want to build a team of a thousand people. I don't know if I can get all the equipment!"
"Yuzhou is rich. Although the arsenal has not been opened for many years, many weapons have shown signs of corrosion and obsolescence, but fortunately most of them are still very good. General Mo and General Lin carefully checked and found that the equipment is enough for 5,000 men. So I wanted to report this matter to Protector Yang!" He Bao, who was next to Lin Qingdong, stood up and responded. He was a big-eared and tiger-backed man, and he turned out to be a captain in the Yuzhou Horse Army.
Before Yuzhou was conquered previously, he was able to gain the support of the followers of the Equalization Sect incarnate as the Secret Party, and successfully gained his allegiance before the Spring Festival. Wei Yiren led the team to attack Yuzhou. He led his men first anyway and was the first to enter the city.
The shorter Lin Han next to him was the commander of the Yangtze River Navy in Yuzhou City, and he was also a general who had been absorbed by the secret party for a long time. When attacking Yuzhou, the troops arranged by Wei Yiren sent by the water surface, with his full cooperation, successfully killed the navy commander and completely controlled the navy on the Yangtze River.
He also clasped his fists and said: "The general believes that our religion now controls Yuzhou City. Although it can echo Zizhou and Suizhou, Zizhou and Suizhou are close to Jinguan City. Yuzhou can only serve as the rear, and it must Pay attention to the troops stationed on the border to defend the Zhou army. Therefore, if Yuzhou City wants to advance and retreat freely, the most important thing to guard against is the navy on the Yangtze River. Therefore, the last general asked Protector Yang to agree to recruit thousands more navy to completely conquer Fuling and Banan. It’s in the hands of this religion!”
Yang Huai looked cautious. When he came to Shuzhong, Liu Jixing analyzed this problem with him. He has obviously grown as he works out with Liu Jixing. I was happy to find that Lin Han was a good talent, so I started to worry about it.
Seeing that no one said anything, it was obvious that everyone was thinking about Yuzhou's position and direction after hearing this. But I found that the middle-aged man next to Fu Wuyi also had a cautious look on his face. Thinking about his identity, he couldn't help but said: "Brother Peng knows the general trend of Yuzhou very well, I don't know if I have any suggestions!"
The middle-aged man pondered. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he was not modest. He slightly cupped his fists towards everyone and said in a deep voice: "Although our religion is very powerful in Shuzhong now, its power is obviously scattered. There is a threat in Yuzhou. Everyone may have ignored it!" Seeing that everyone was cautious, he stood up and walked towards Yang Huai and Wei Yiren to salute.
He said quietly: "The two guardians must know that the reason why there are not many soldiers in Yuzhou is because Fengdu has a special place! That is the world's first gate, which is widely rumored in the world, and Fengdu is the location of the first hell gate. It is said that there is a branch of our sect that is close to Chengdu, but compared with the Hell Sect, our influence in some aspects is still quite insufficient in Sichuan. A certain family thinks that Yuzhou is a key point, just look at Yang How big are the plans of Protector Wei and Protector Wei!" He looked at Wei Yiren again and said cautiously: "The other thing is to see how long this rare soldier can stay in Yuzhou City next to Protector Wei!"
This man's name is Peng Quanqing, a native of Yuzhou, and he was originally the head of the Yuzhou cloth line. I don’t know when he was pulled into the organization by the secret party, but Yang Huai is relatively relieved after all. This time, with his cooperation, Yuzhou quickly stabilized, and he summoned all the people from all walks of life in Yuzhou. He also has a special identity, that is, he is the elder brother of Peng Quanbai, the military governor of the Han Dynasty.
Of course, Peng Quanqing himself didn't know the role of this identity. The average religion he joined was also from the country where his brothers belonged. However, the secret party has secretly learned about it and recorded it in the secret party's files. Therefore, when trying to recruit secret party members in Yuzhou, he was naturally at the top of the list.
When Wei Yiren led the army into the city, Peng Quanqing already had four subordinate party members, and each of them exerted a force that cannot be ignored. So, for Yang Huai. I am very reassured by my understanding and loyalty to Peng Quanqing.
"The sect aims to liberate the people throughout Shu and occupy Yuzhou City. Naturally, it is for long-term development and a strong foundation in Shu. The Hell Gate currently has no contact or conflict with the sect and can be ignored for the time being. . The teachings of the leader are very clear. We have established a foothold in Yuzhou. As the rear area of Suizhou and Zizhou, we can cut off the lifeline of Chengdu's waterways. As for me, I personally sit in Yuzhou City in order to unite the religious leaders in various states and counties. Everyone." Yang Huai said quietly to everyone.
He pointed at Wei Yi and said: "As the former protector of our sect, Protector Wei is responsible for pioneering and setting up battles. Naturally, he will not stay in Yuzhou City for too long. However, until Yuzhou City is not firmly established, Protector Wei will not easily Leave. Since everyone is interested, I will continue to plan on this, you can refer to it!"
Everyone knew that Yang Huai was making arrangements, so they couldn't help but become a little nervous. Sun Qingyi on the side seemed to be deep in thought. Xiao Xu seemed to have thought of something and looked at Sun Qingyi. Sun Qingyi shook her head gently, signaling Xiao Xu to feel at ease, and Xiao Xu felt at ease.
"I plan to establish a three-party basic initiative in Yuzhou in response to the leader's decision! First, Peng Quanqing will serve as the deputy altar leader of the Yuzhou City's local church branch with immediate effect, and will be responsible for all the titles of the former governor of Yuzhou City, and external affairs. All matters will be handled by Brother Peng Quanqing. The safety of Brother Peng will be assisted by my personal guard Jin Shiqi, and you can arrange and handle all other matters together!"
Yang Huai waved his hand to indicate to Peng Quanqing, who was excited and delighted, that he did not need to stand up and bowed, and then said, "Secondly, Brother Xiao Xu will still serve as the leader of the Yuzhou sub-altar with immediate effect, and will be responsible for the affairs of all Yuzhou brothers, including Brother Peng Quanqing also assisted. At the same time, he was responsible for all the positions of the former Yuzhou Defense Envoy, and was fully assisted by Mr. Sun." Yang Huai was able to conceal Sun Qingyi's identity and importance, but Sun Qingyi didn't look strange at all. He was originally the person responsible for Xiao Xu's safety.
Seeing that everyone had no doubts, Yang Huai continued: "At the same time, Li Yuan of Longtan Temple was appointed as the Dharma protector of the Yuzhou branch of our religion. From now on, I, as Li Yuan's introducer, approve brothers Li Yuan, Luo Zong, Shi Brother Jia has become a brother of our religion! He will be responsible for patrolling and arresting Yuzhou City, and will form a patrol team of 500 people on his own. After the personnel are selected by the army, you will be responsible for leading the selection."
"Third, the sect will reward all the meritorious personnel this time. However, the construction of Yuzhou City is about to begin, and everything will be improved. I will report your merits to the sect leader and arrange positions for you in Yuzhou first. I hope you will work together. Build Yuzhou City into the center of our religion!"
Things were arranged one after another, and everyone in the hall was happy.
Yuzhou City was shrouded in the rising sun.
Wine and song, life geometry?
Life is so short and time flies by! If you have thoughts of greed for life and fear of death, then what else can be accomplished! In the long journey of life, the biggest enemy is the insurmountable fear in one's own heart.
At the end of the Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, warlords in the world were constantly fighting. The Central Plains was divided into fifteen separatist forces. This was another division after the great unification in traditional Chinese history.
For many people, if the world is not harmonious, the great cause has not been accomplished. The shortcomings of Confucianism and the general trend of the world seem to determine that the long separation will inevitably lead to reunion.
In any era, there will be some people with a mission, and they all take the world as their responsibility. Whether it is for personal selfishness or to leave a name in history, they are always running for the general trend of the world.
The reason why some people are successful is that they have been waiting for an opportunity, waiting for an opportunity that suits them, and waiting for an opportunity that can make their dreams come true. Of course, the prerequisite for this is to continuously accumulate. Without the usual accumulation and foresight, even if there is an opportunity in front of you, you can only feel that it is futile and sigh to the sky.
In this era, all thoughtful people will have a sense of urgency of time and a sense of helplessness that the mission cannot be completed. As Cao Mengde said: "As the years pass by, I worry about the world but do not manage it!"
This emotion is not about weakness and depression, but about clinging to a limited life. To cherish our lifetime, we must work hard to cheer up in time and do a vigorous career. Tian Lian, I see that in this world, in every different era, there are these vigorous figures who promote the progress of time and the progress of mankind.
A person, at least in the first ten years of his life, is helplessly wasting his time and his limited life. This kind of helplessness about the process of life cannot be escaped by everyone, because no one can be born as a great person, and must grow up from birth. Then continue to learn and improve. Of course, I am talking about a normal person here, and those who are mediocre are not included in this.
Everyone spends their lives in ignorance and dies in pain, disappointment and anxiety. Only after it happens, do they understand how to deal with things; after it happens, they can never find the reason and opportunity to go back. Life is like this, but why are some people’s lives not like this? Even if there are those slight realizations, time has passed.
For a person who truly understands the secular world and life, he may live in more pain than many people. But they can certainly better standardize their own path and plan their own future.
Some people will turn into clay, and some people will dedicate their beautiful lives to the beauty of this world.
As an ordinary person, it is actually impossible to become someone that the world knows. However, many people have devoted their lives to this. They just want to prove that they are extraordinary, even if they have to pay for it. A lifetime, not even a return.
"His Majesty!"
I saw Liu Jixing standing under the banyan tree, quietly looking at the koi in the pool. They were fished by Guishou himself from the Pearl River and were given to Liu Jixing. Liu Jixing likes these koi carps very much, they are colorful and full of life.
Yang Jiong, dressed in hemp-colored cloth, turned from the stone path.
"Sir, do you have good news again!" Liu Jixing smiled slightly, handed the fish food in his hand to Gong Chengshu, and looked at Yang Jiong with a chuckle on his face. Gong Chengshu accepted it respectfully, then stepped aside to feed the fish food. Liu Jixing was still very kind to him, but he restrained himself a lot in the palace.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" Yang Jiong handed a note to Liu Jixing, with a lot of things written densely on it. He looked calmly at the floating koi in the pool and said, "A certain family has just returned from Brother Siti. Brother Siti asked a certain family to drop by and tell them that Yuzhou has lived up to His Majesty's trust and is now safe." Everything is under control." Yang Jiong looked at Liu Jixing and smiled, thinking of his efforts during this period, he couldn't help but look forward to this young man.
"Now Suizhou and Zizhou have succeeded one after another, and Yuzhou has achieved great success again. Your Majesty's idea is being realized!" Yang Jiong's face was actually a little happy. At his level of cultivation, he rarely expressed joy for things.
"All this is thanks to the support of these two gentlemen!" Liu Jixing and Yang Jiong stood side by side, looking at the fish in the water, and said quietly: "When Mr. Shi brought this koi from the river to the palace, They kept jumping around, and then gradually calmed down. When I came close to feed them, they would actively come over, and they are used to it now!"
Yang Jiong glanced at Liu Jixing, showing some thoughts, and then looked at Gong Chengshu, who occasionally tossed fish food into the water, and the fish also came over with their heads and tails wagging. Gong Chengshu had a smile on his face and looked respectful.
"They are used to being in this pool. They have adapted to this kind of life. No matter who feeds them, they don't care. The main thing is that they need to eat!" Liu Jixing smiled slightly and said: "Sir, I feel that after a while, If I put these fish into the river again, will they still be as plump and eat things in the river?"
"Maybe I'll starve to death!" Yang Jiong looked at Gong Chengshu who seemed to stop and looked at Liu Jixing respectfully with a thoughtful expression on his face, as if he heard Liu Jixing's words that were interesting. He couldn't help but said calmly: "No wonder you are familiar with the survival habits of fish, no wonder your majesty is so confident!"
Liu Jixing put his hands behind his hands and looked at the clear sky after the rain, and took a deep breath: "Life is only a few decades, and ordinary people will cherish their lives. In troubled times, it is the common people who suffer the battles. After a long separation, they will reunite, and the hearts of the people will return! Who will come first? Whoever gives priority to the ruler will have endless opportunities! Whether in Chu, Tang or Shu, it is not important. What is important is whose ruler the people will wait for and whose arrangements they will get used to!"
"Since May, the south of the Yangtze River has never been so good! The Xiang River is so sentimental, but will Zhou Xingfeng welcome me like a Xiang girl? There is also the road to Shu that is difficult to reach the sky. When will I be able to go there in this life! Haha , Sir! Do you know how much I miss the feeling of being able to roam the world without restraint!" As if talking to himself, Liu Jixing's eyes were full of passion, and Gong Chengshu was looking at him secretly.
Liu Jixing did not feel his greatness, and even felt that he was still the same as he was in his own world, but he would have to work hard throughout his life to come to this world. From being rescued by Zhenren Shi that day, to later becoming the crown prince of Lingnan, to his early plans later, Liu Jixing's own unyieldingness was proved.
What can the world prove? What do you want to prove in this world!
The world is very confusing because there are too many changes in the world!
The crystal clear water drops slowly fall from the green leaves, creating a colorful and blurry world!
The figures of several people are blurred in this world!
