Shi Tao was assassinated at the Buddhist Residence, and he had something to do with Buddhism.
Fo Tucheng had no choice but to come forward and admonish: "The prince and Duke Qin are both your majesty's sons. Now it is Tao who kills Xuan, which is a serious disaster. If your majesty is kind and forgiving, the blessings will be long; if he must be punished, the prince will be like a comet." Let’s clean the Ye Palace.”
Shi Hu played with the knife and arrow used to assassinate Shi Tao, licked the blood on them, and his eyes turned red again, "If you don't kill the traitor today, the traitor will kill me tomorrow. Don't say too much, great monk!"
Then he ordered firewood to be piled in the north of Yecheng, a windlass was set up on it, and a rope was wound around it.
Then he ordered Shi Tao's favored eunuchs Hao Zhi and Liu Ba to pull out his hair, pull out his tongue, and lead him up a ladder and onto the firewood pile. Hao Zhi ran a pair of ropes through his chin and tightened the deer and Lu, making him look like a man waiting to be slaughtered. He was hung up like an animal, and Liu Ba cut off his hands and feet, cut out his eyes and ruptured his abdomen, just like the injuries suffered by Shi Tao.
Finally, the pyre was lit, and thick smoke and flames rose into the sky.
After the fire was extinguished, the ashes were taken and placed in the streets of Yecheng, where they would be trampled by thousands of people and never be reincarnated.
Shi Xuan's wife and nine children were all sentenced to great punishment. Shi Hu led thousands of people under Zhaoyi to the central platform to watch.
Shi Xuan's youngest son was five years old and was usually favored by Shi Hu. When he was about to be executed, he hugged Shi Hu tightly and begged him endlessly.
The cry brought back a little bit of Shi Hu's humanity.
But the ministers just wanted to eliminate the root cause and avoid future troubles, so they stepped forward to pull Shihu. The youngest son broke Shihu's belt, but he still could not escape death.
More than 300 of the prince's ministers and more than 50 eunuchs were dismembered in the execution ground and thrown into the Zhang River.
The autumn wind howled, and the clouds were gloomy. Shihu first lost his beloved son, and then his beloved grandson. He fell ill, became more and more heavy, and often fainted.
Yecheng was shrouded in blood.
The autumn wind gradually became colder, and tens of thousands of Gaoli Imperial Guards were exiled to Liangzhou, riding horses and riding ox carts, slowly heading west like ants.
Among the crowd, one person looked back at the tall and majestic Yecheng with a look of reluctance. His family, his wealth and wealth were all in this city, and now they were all in vain.
"Director Liang, we are so lucky to be able to save our lives!" Another person whispered.
Liang Du, Gao Lidu Liang Du.
"Hey, the prince and his family were slaughtered like pigs and dogs. It's so miserable..."
Everyone around him looked sad and angry.
The Imperial Guards of Gaoli were the prince's personal soldiers and had a personal dependence relationship. They followed Shi Xuan for more than ten years and were loyal to him.
Strange to say, Liang Du suddenly remembered Shi Xuan's words a year ago: "Work hard, and I will be rich with you in the future!"
Now that Shi Xuan is dead, his wealth is gone, and he has become a pawn, Liang Du has a huge psychological gap, and has mixed feelings in his heart, "Maybe one day... he can return."
As long as people are not dead, there will always be some opportunities...
Everything that happened in Yecheng seemed to have wings and quickly spread to the surroundings.
Shi Tao died, Shi Xuan also died, and Shi Hu was seriously ill.
A new round of power struggle has begun again.
Liu Guo, the governor of Luozhou, received two letters at the same time, one from Zhang Yu in Yuzhou and one from Yecheng.
At this moment, of course Liu Guo opened the secret letter from Yecheng first.
The letter was written in the name of Concubine Liu, and the content was very simple, asking him to stay put and wait for the incident in Yecheng.
Twenty years ago, Shi Hu conquered Shanggui and killed more than 3,000 members of the former Zhao clan. Princess Anding, who was only 12 years old, was captured by Rong Zhao general Zhang Jack. Seeing her beauty, she offered her to Shi Hu.
The hungry ghost in Shi Hu's color naturally smiled and accepted it. Many years later, he gave birth to a son, Shi Shi, who is now nine years old.
Although Liu Guo was not a member of the former Zhao clan, he was also a nobleman of the Huns. Over the years, he had been secretly promoted by Concubine Liu and Zhang Jack, and had just climbed to the position of governor of Luozhou.
Shihu moved the Jie, Qiang, Di, Ba, Xiongnu, and Xianbei barbarians into Hebei, but never truly integrated them.
The Han, Wei, and Jin dynasties had not completely assimilated them for hundreds of years, let alone the Jie people for only twenty or thirty years?
The Jie people were originally a branch of the Xiongnu.
In Hebei, in addition to Pu Hong of Fangtou and Yao Yizhong of Shetou, there were also the Xianbei forces Duan Gong of Lingzhi and the Huns near Luoyang.
Liu Guo opened the second letter, but it was the governor of Yuzhou who asked him to send troops to attack Heiyun Mountain. He sneered, "Idiot!"
Crumpled the letter into a ball and threw it on the ground...
On the Jianshui front line, the confrontation continues.
"Could it be that Zhang Yu is waiting for the water to freeze?" Han Xu frowned.
This war dragged on for such a long time and consumed a lot of food.
The weather is getting colder and colder day by day, and if it continues, it will enter late autumn.
"If the water freezes, Zhang Yu will die!" Wei Shan said with high fighting spirit.
Zheng Hui frowned and said, "Zhang met tens of thousands of people and stood still. Could it be that he was deceiving?"
Li Yue thought for a while and realized that the north bank of the Lishui River had been turned into an iron barrel. Even if the river froze, Zhang Yu might not be able to capture it. When the enemy attacked, all he had to do was break the ice.
Ice is dead, but people are alive. In the ice and snow, it is better to defend than to attack.
Zhang Yu had only one way to defeat him - a group of troops suddenly appeared from the north and headed straight for Black Cloud Mountain.
Near Xingyang, the only person who poses a threat to Black Cloud Mountain is Liu Guo of Luoyang.
However, this person does not seem to have much interest in attacking Black Cloud Mountain.
When we first captured Gong County, we wandered around Beishan and then turned around and went back.
Of course, Liu Guo is really desperate to attack, and Li Yue is not afraid. There are more than 30,000 people on the mountain who are all soldiers. Men, women, old and young can carry spears and bend bows. There are passes everywhere on the continuous mountain roads.
With Zhou Qian in charge of the rear, the enemy will not be given any chance.
Li Yue also had a thousand-man "Xiaoqi" cavalry that never entered the battlefield.
"Why don't you go meet Zhang Yu for a while." Such a long confrontation made Li Yue feel a little bored.
Now that neither side can defeat the other, it is better to shake hands and make peace for the time being.
This war originally involved too many external factors.
"Very good. If Zhang Yu shows his head, a certain arrow will kill him!" Wei Shan took out a big bow.
It would be good if Zhang Yu could be shot and killed. Li Yue was not a pedantic person. "Wei Liao Zi" also clearly stated: Anyone who kills is the reason why he is wise in martial arts. If he kills one person and the three armies are shaken, kill him. If you kill one person and make everyone happy, kill him!
However, Li Yue felt that there was little chance.
Zhang Yu was cautious by nature and would either not come out or be heavily guarded when he came out.
The guards carried shields and surrounded Li Yue, who was wearing two layers of armor, to the shore.
"Please tell me about Governor Zhang!" the guards shouted towards the other side.
There was a commotion on the other side, and archers were all over the river. After a while, hundreds of soldiers came out and shouted towards the north bank: "Master Li is both civil and military, why don't you surrender to me? You and I become father and son, and we have a lot to do." !”
Li Yue was stunned and didn't know why so many people wanted to accept him as their adopted son.
Ji Yong was like this at the beginning, and Zhang Yu is like this now.
"What Governor Zhang said is very good, very good!" Li Yue ordered the soldiers to shout to the other side.
"Oh? Leader Li really knows the current affairs well!" The voice from the other side was full of joy.
"I, Li Yue, will have no regrets in my life if I have a adopted son like Governor Zhang!" The voice spread across both sides of the Jishui River.
There was suddenly a strange silence on both sides.
Then, the North Shore burst into loud laughter.
Some people burst into laughter on the ground, while some people rushed out of the trench and pointed towards the other side...
Zhang Yu said they were father and son, but he didn't say who was the father and who was the son.
Li Yue felt that it was a good thing to have a Yuzhou governor as his son.
"Little Li Yue, don't be so arrogant!" yells and curses came from the other side.
Li Yue waved his hand to stop the laughter around him, "You and I have been fighting against each other for many days. Since you have failed, you will not come back early. Xuchang is an important place in the Central Plains. If anything goes wrong, Governor Zhang will be the loser!"
"Little Li Yue, I will behead you within a few days to vent the hatred in my heart!"
"Chief Zhang has such a strong tone. Even if Liu Guo of Luozhou leads an army to attack from two sides, I, Heiyun Mountain, will not be afraid!"
This is not arrogance.
In a frontal battle, Li Yue admitted that it was not easy to defeat either side, but relying on the mountains to defend was more than enough.
Which of the Black Mountain Bandits, Taishan Bandits, and Baibo Army in the late Han Dynasty did not rely on the mountains to fight Yuan Shao and Cao Cao for several years?
If you want to completely annihilate Heiyun Mountain, you must have a force of 100,000 troops from Yecheng to come to the top of Mount Tai!
